[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1049172, member: 10086"] The media will discount our Defensive performance. The theme has been that SF was missing Brock Purdy and so this was an easy game. However I’d argue that GB was missing Edgerrin Cooper and J’aire Alexander. Those are 2 very good impact players and when both are taken away it absolutely had a similar impact on our side. There is no doubt that having Purdy healthy would’ve made a difference. It’s also a fact that had Jordan Love been healthy all year it would also positively impact our Offense. Playing your QB2 is not a reason to fold your hand. I loved Kyle’s position when he didn’t blame it on injuries. I have a profound respect for him after watching his post game interview. He’s really a class act and you can tell he never once pointed blame at anyone but themselves. I actually felt bad for him he’s very genuine and he was hurting and it was tough to watch. Many teams have games where they have to use their #2, some even use both. Allen had several seasons of preparation and had started in 9 games. He was their clear choice over Josh Dobbs, so it’s not like he’s some helpless QB either. Backup QB’s are much better prepared than we think and must to qualify as a #2 means you are a great Athlete. 49ers still have talent all over. Kittle, McCaffrey, Jennings, Samuel, Juszczyk are all good Receiving options. GB still snuffed them out by controlling the clock on Offense (2:1 Rushing) and that was limiting SF. However SF was still just 3/12 on 3rd/4th Downs and GB forced multiple Takeaways. Having Purdy would’ve helped in some regard, but it wouldn’t have erased our Run D and it Wouldn’t have erased Josh Jacobs punishing their Defense. IF Purdy was out there the score would be more in that 34-23 type feel, but our Packers banged up D played pretty darn good against what’s probably a true 5-5 strength team. [/QUOTE]
