Kyle Shanahan explains why he’s benching Mac Jones for Brock Purdy. #49ers #49ersfaithful #nfl
Is this a hard decision to make given how well Mac Jones playing recently? Uh, no. It’s not a hard decision. It’s just more about Brock’s health. It’s been awesome how Max played. He’s been great. We got a lot of confidence in Brock. You know, Brock play. You were confident that Brock was ready to return week four, but he ultimately wasn’t. Um, you’re confident that he’s ready to return now or getting there. What makes you confident that you’re right this? Um, the last six weeks this way has to do more with what he tells me and what I see.

Thanks For asking tough question
Mac should remain the starter. Always go with the hot hand. Ultimately they should get rid of Brock. Mac is more accurate and processes better
Brock hasn’t played at a high level since that Seattle game 2 years ago. We are watching a train wreck. This will set the franchise back 5 years with this decision. Brock not taking this team to the Super Bowl his floaters are going to get others hurt. Ask aiyuk and pearsall. Mac playing and winning was a second chance to move on from Brock. Disaster get ready for clutch time interceptions
Kyle’s answers are never confident. “Um, um…”
Only Grant gets the um, um, um!
I swear he act like Broc Purdy is some elite QB 😂😂 Mac wasn’t the problem the defense is god awful so welcome pass floating Purdy back with his 2int games back let’s see how this helps smh I swear
Kyle is a narcissist cant wait till.he is fired
A lot of Brock-haters in these comments that have a REALLY short memory 😂
Is understandable, KS future is tied to Brock's success if Brock fails KS is gone specially if he gets rid of Mac for 2nd round pick and he balls somewhere else.
It’s not a hard decision to play the qb you paid for
He’s playing because Brock is making alott of money if he wasn’t making so much Mac would still be starting
Returning the backup QB to the role of backup QB isn’t “benching”
Mac is the better QB right now. Brock is not ready.
Not sure there's no explaining why a starter starts I just hope there not rushing Brock with all the injuries the season is over
The Defense is the problem
Great questions Grant I personally think they are tripping taking Mac out any of the 9ers loses it wasn’t because of Mac I think Mac is a better QB that’s just me
Questioning repeat offender , a suspect 😂😂😂
For Kyle to say it was not a hard choice for him to make is messed up in my opinion. Because Mac has been killing it. And because of Mac we are still in the playoff run.
Keep it up cohn lol
He needs no reason to why.
Shanahan is so full of 💩 😂
Well we all will be witnessing the great campaign of conquest. Or pure sadness and hurt for the greatest fan base in NFL history. On any given Sunday any team can beat any team. That’s the truth.
Um. As long as he's healthy.
You’re terrible at your job Grant
Get ready for some bad floating hospital balls! They’ve set Brock up to succeed in this game vs this team, with the weather elements not being a factor for Purdy’s small hands, but for sure someone is getting hurt in this one thanks to Brock. Look for Brendel & McKivitz to play horribly as always, as well….
Trade Mac to the Rams for a 6th round pick, he can be the Rams backup qb.
Mac is better! Ummm, ummmm, ummmm
Kyle hates tf out you😂😂😂
Yep, Kyle hates you
You terminology is just wrong. Backups don't get benched when the starter returns.
Wrong Kyle again. You kept the hot hand in. Your a loser that's what you know. How many Superbowls you've lost?
And on Monday excuses
What makes you think that these are intelligent questions you’re asking Coach
41 pts season high Brock was him Sunday great job Kyle. Go 49ers!
Still need a pass rush
