Purdy, notable 49ers QBs offer Notre Dame’s Leonard sage advice
“Brock, I want to ask you, because … you have a superpower [in] is processing and the idea that as a young player, you jumped on the field [against the] Miami Dolphins and just start processing,” Young asked Purdy. “How would you tell him to get ready to do that?”
“Quarterback Brock Purdy is anticipated to throw for 3,901 yards, tallying 24 touchdowns and 11 interceptions while maintaining a completion rate of 66.8 percent. This projection marks a decline from his 2023 performance, where he set a single-season franchise record with 4,280 passing yards.”
“Adding proven veterans was something the 49ers didn’t do on the defensive front last year and it forced them to try and fix it on the fly mid-season. Now they’ve aimed to fix it in the offseason, and on paper it appears that group will be their most improved in 2024.”
Cowherd believes 49ers got ‘little bit of a break’ with 2024 schedule
“People are lamenting what the Niners got. ‘Oh, they face all these teams off a bye,’ “ Cowherd said. “Not every coach is great off a bye, the offensive coaches aren’t. So, the Niners are a veteran team with a veteran head coach. This is a really, really smart team that can play on short rest. They’re not rebuilding anything.
“They’ve got [Talanoa] Hufanga back at safety. They’ve got a couple of young receivers they’ll work in, but they kept Deebo [Samuel], [George] Kittle, Trent Williams, [Brock] Purdy, [Christian McCaffrey], Brandon Aiyuk. They brought the band back together and look what they face until October 10 — new, new, new, new, new, new.”
