Seems like the majority of the shitter fans are happy with the deal. But there are a few who' are concerned it prevents them from building around a guy who's pretty much a game manager. I think they had to pay him. Otherwise they'd be in that dreaded quarterback purgatory. Trying to find their guy every year.

I don't think they'll ever win a Superbowl with him. In a good year they'll be a mid to low seed playoff team who may or may not win a first round game. They had their shot with a super team around him and failed. They won't get another shot anytime soon.

Now comes massive expectations on the kid. As Mr Irrelevant, getting paid peanuts as a starting QB, you are always way over achieving any expectations by fans. Now it’s a whole different world for him. It’ll be interesting to see how he handles this new world.

"I think he seems like a smart guy," Nacua said of Purdy. "They (the 49ers) have a chance to still be in their (Super Bowl-contending) window. And I think if he goes for a 5 [$50 million-plus per year], then the window closes."18 Apr 2025

So Lynch is trying to placate fans after signing a 32 year old TE to a massive contract by trying to convince people there was high interest by other teams. Got it.
If there's any truth to that they might come to regret not taking that offer. Especially if the injury bug starts to hit a 32 year old player. Woulda been less cap money for a young guy they'd control for 4 years.

If the whiners have a crap year this season then I am thinking Shanahan will likely be gone. He missed the window.

Then what for Purdy? He does not seem like a rally the troops type of leader.

I see nothing than a system QB who was Mr Irrelevant for a reason.

Some do win a lottery.

Basically any decent QB could succeed in that system. It's very QB friendly, with lots of short to medium passes based of play action. Paying a game manager top tier money is a hilarious solution to a problem.
