All of a sudden the Niners QB room is total chaos lol

[skullman80]

Mason Rudolph is available.

Better than Josh Johnson if nothing else lol.

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

it seems like both Purdy and Lance should be ready for the season. Though Shanahan “named” Purdy the next season’s starter already


I’m guessing it’ll be an old fashioned QB competition but with how Purdy ran that offense, if I’m a Niner fan I’m rooting for him

[mikey]

Nothing is really in chaos, they're the furthest away from having another game as they could be haha

I think this takes a lot of film work to figure out and then good projection ability, plus monitored summer progress...

[CBear3]

I think because you have Lance, and because you thought he was the next franchise QB at this point a year ago, you don't feel like you have to rush Purdy back. If I remember right, full recovery from TJ is usually a year down the road. Sure, you can be throwing in 6 months but it doesn't feel like you're yourself for some time after that. So you know you've got an King in Purdy already, let Lance take the early burden off of him and find out if he's got something of value to another team out there.

Seems like a decent problem to have.

[willeyeam]

He isn't getting TJ it sounds like

[skullman80]

Yeah I didn't think the TJ was confirmed yet. He was getting a 2nd opinion, but I think the 49ers wanted him to get surgery (not sure what exactly).

[willeyeam]

My ortho pals tell me there's surgery to repair (6 month timeframe) and then when the ligament is totally blown up off the bone and needs reconstructed it's TJ and the year + recovery

[robbiestoupe]

TJ requires taking ligaments from the knee for the reconstruction. For baseball pitchers it's a problem, but not as much as it would be for a QB I imagine.

Yeah Ben looked totally fine after his.

[robbiestoupe]

Did BB have TJ surgery? I know he had surgery, just thought it was less than the full TJ route. Or maybe that's what the slug is for?

I don't think so. They never described it as such.

[nocera]

Oh that's right, the Steelers never actually said what surgery he had, only that it wasn't TJ. Not sure what his excuse was then.

[MrKennethTKangaroo]

If you asked big Ben, he would tell you he needed a special shoulder surgery to prevent gangrene from spreading to his entire body

[willeyeam]

And they suggested removing the arm altogether but he took the chance

[genoscoif]

All the more impressive considering he's actually left-handed.

[faftorial]

The Gangrene Gang is not to be messed with.

[nocera]

In case you forgot that the Pro Bowl was a joke.

[CBear3]

Wow. Carr who got benched and Huntley who had 2 passing TD's. The AFC quarterback room looks as bad as the 9ers.
I mean, how did they decide between Mac Jones, Huntley, and KSP?

Shut up you don’t have any friends

[willeyeam]

[mikey]

Oh, Snoop1 is apparently the Ravens backup, Hundley or whatever...that's weird. Sam Ehlinger wasn't available...?

KSP has bulletin board material now

[dodint]

PFF wasn't consulted.
