The San Francisco 49ers finished a rather magical run of five games under quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, and it has fans going crazy with optimism. The franchise has struggled to find a long-term QB dating back to the end of the Steve Young era, and so it is not surprising people are latching on to Jimmy G the way they have the past month.
When it comes to the 49ers quarterback position, we as fans regularly look at the back-to-back run of Joe Montana and Steve Young. Everybody is compared to them, and thus, regularly we are left disappointed.
