Nah it was a third round pick. If he works out, it's great value. If he walks after the season, the Niners will get a third round compensatory pick. Considering the risk/reward, it was a great trade.

Got it. I knew there was a 3rd rounder in there somewhere.

Back on track. Chase Young paying early dividends. Looking forward to the Philly game. Will tell us a lot.

I was and still am a big Trey Lance fan, but Purdy is definitely making a believer out of me.

First big injury: Hafanga out for the season. That hurts.

What has Lance done as a backup to deserve your fandom?

I watched every snap he took at North Dakota State when he passed for 2700 yards, 28 TDs, 0 INTs, and ran for 1100 yards and 14 TDs. Shanahan did the same thing. That's why he drafted Lance. Hard to not be incredibly impressed with that season.

As a pro, he never really got a shot. He showed flashes, got hurt, Purdy made history, then Lance unquestionably outplayed Sam Darnold this past preseason. Shanahan is just infatuated with Darnold's skill set and probably didn't want Lance lurking over Purdy's shoulder.

I just HATE that he is with the Dallas Cowboys. I have an irrational hatred of the Cowboys. But I hope he gets a chance to show what he can do.

NFC Championship preview coming up. Will be good to see how the game plays out when both teams have a QB.

The team that loses will probably win the playoff rematch.

For the first quarter. But I hate close games anyway. I'd rather my team win or lose by a blowout.

So would most people which is why college football is more popular. Fans of Alabama, Ohio State, Georgia, Michigan, Oregon, Texas, Oklahoma, FSU, etc, like to cruise through the season winning with only a few games to worry about. The closeness of NFL games all year is draining. I usually only watch the last 8 minutes of the games because it is almost always won at the end anyway.

Had to watch the game on DVR because I was traveling, but another great win. Top seed in the NFC. Peaking at the right time.

Big game on Monday against the Ravens. Possible Super Bowl preview.

I doubt the Ravens make it. Lamar always chokes in the playoffs.

Stay healthy and they'll be tough to beat.

I agree. This is the best Niner team since Young and Montana.

I don’t think there’s any way Baltimore beats them in San Fran. And I’m a Baltimore fan.

I also agree, until he shows otherwise, with Humble Narcissist that Lamar has not lived up to the hype come playoff time.

Well I am shocked about the way they played out.

Well that was ugly. The Ravens were clearly the better team on Monday. Jackson looked good. Purdy was obviously off his game. This will actually be a good matchup if both teams make it to the Super Bowl.

I agree with you on a rematch being better. But, I'm way more confident in San Francisco getting to the Super Bowl than I am Baltimore.
