Fox is suggesting the 49ers help their QB less than publicly perceived.

Sorry, but is there any clear explanation behind Fox's assertion?
ReplyDeleteI feel as if missing something here.
I guess what I'm asking is what does Fox perceive as the reason why he feels that the 49ers are not giving Purdy the help he needs.
ReplyDeleteIt's one person's ranking of the supporting cast around the QB.
DeleteIt's based on the totality of support, OL, scheme, play calling, weapons, etc. Likely counting the 49ers OL against them and expect inconsistencies to keep them from performing at a higher level.
DeleteThanks guys
DeleteI was also thinking along the same line. But, maybe I shouldn't be surprised that these writers don't have the integrity to acknowledge all the injuries in 2025.
It's a very subjective question, but IMO it is the Rams.
ReplyDelete* Stafford operates behind an offensive line tied for the fewest sacks allowed in the league. * He throws to a wideout duo of Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. * Hands off to a RB committee of Kyren Williams, Blake Corum, and Jarquez Hunter
* McVay's system is regarded as a top QB-friendly systems in NFL football.
* The Rams defense, after making upgrades for All-Pro CB Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson, is rated a top 10 defense.
Again, just my opinion, but I see the Rams as the team the 9ers
need to beat to win the NFC West.
I think they'll sweep them this year if they're healthy.

DeleteAsk me after we see who's starting at L-OG, and yes, how many of the veterans coming off IR stay healthy.
If the law of averages for injuries catch up, the 9ers should be
the healthiest team in the NFL.

ReplyDeleteI would also disagree with Dallas being rated at #2.
ReplyDelete* IMO, the Eagles O-line boast one of the most highly-graded tackle duos in the NFL. OT Jordan Mailata earns elite grades pushing into the 88.0–95.0. OT Lane Johnson grades out in the high-70s to high-80s.
* Landon Dickerson, Cam Jurgens, Tyler Steen, the Eagles' guards and centers generally grade as solid-to-above-average,
* IMO, Dallas O-line rated higher then the Eagles O-line, is due to Eagles O-line injuries VS a young and healthy Dallas O-line.
Dallas Offensive Line:
* OT Tyler Guyton received lower grades than Eagles OT's (around 49.0 mark)
* IOL: Cooper Beebe, Tyler Booker, younger starters have shown flashes in run blocking (mid-to-high 60s), but their pass protection needs more development.
* With OG Zack Martin's retiring, Dallas lost a pro bowl player that consistently graded out 80+, dropping the group's overall ranking.
It is all about the O line. They are pretty deep at the skill positions when healthy

ReplyDeleteInteresting thought experiment even if this is this based on the current year.
ReplyDeleteSo SF likely ranks higher than they normally would with bringing in 2nd round wr, a 3rd round rb, and adding Evans and Kirk this offseason but I'm guessing they will only be moderate upgrades.
This season will mostly hinge on getting the left guard position right.
Puni being healthy likely is the biggest upgrade for this team.
CMC clearly lacks the burst he had in the past and appears to actually hinder the run game (gaining nearly a yard less than expected per rush attempt) for all he gives the pass game.
