I love writing about the San Francisco 49ers. They're my team, they've broadly been successful over the two to three years I've been writing about them, and the future, at least while Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch are around, looks somewhat bright.
The player I dislike having to talk about is quarterback Brock Purdy. Not because I dislike him (I think he's a wonderful player), but the constant discussion on his position has gotten tiring.
That's at least partly because the discourse around Purdy is now, and has always been, ludicrous. It seems that ever since he ascended to the starting lineup in 2022, elements of the national and local media have been trying to find ways to discredit him.
