49ers rookie quarterback Brock Purdy makes his first NFL start Sunday against none other than Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and he thinks it's 'pretty cool.'
The 49ers opted to remain with Garoppolo. One year later, the 49ers traded up to No. 3 overall to select Trey Lance with the idea he would take over for Garoppolo sooner than later.
And he is showing no signs of slowing down, either. In fact, Shanahan said he believes Brady’s arm is stronger than it was 10 years ago and he has not lost any movement skills within the pocket. It might be impossible to compare different generations of players because of how the game and advances in training have changed. But, at this point, there is no objective argument that anyone other than Brady is the most-accomplished quarterback in football history.“He plays the position better than anyone ever, and he’s definitely the GOAT from what I’ve seen,” Shanahan said. “But I don’t say that just because he has won Super Bowls. I say it because of how he plays the position.
