  • Should 49ers Hold Legit QB1 Competition?
    Aug 3 2023
    On the latest episode of The 415ers, Evan Giddings and Marc Grandi break down the first week-plus of San Francisco 49ers training camp. Despite the fact that Kyle Shanahan and the 49ers have not officially named Brock Purdy the Week 1 starting quarterback, it's relatively obvious he is this team's starter. How do you feel about him being handed the starting role? Are you certain that he is the best quarterback on the roster? Do you have doubt? Does his career trajectory up to this point remind you of any other past 49ers quarterback? Plus, praise is suddenly piling up for Trey Lance. This week, San Francisco quarterbacks coach Brian Griese said that Lance is getting "a lot better" and is having the best camp of his career. Do you have any reason not to believe him? Also, Adam Schefter recently said something very similar. Does the fact that those comments came from someone outside or the organization that has not attended a single training camp practice impact how you interpret them at all? Could the 49ers just be trying to pump up Lance's value league-wide? Beyond the quarterbacks, though, what concerns you about this team? The starting lineup seems nearly set in stone already, but what could become an issue? Are you worried about the offensive line, whether it be the starting group or the depth? What about Nick Bosa's hold out? Does the signing of Taco Charlton mean anything about Bosa for you?

  • 49ers' QB Drama Continues to Build
    Aug 1 2023
    On the latest episode of The 415ers, Evan Giddings and Marc Grandi discuss the drama circling the San Francisco 49ers' quarterback room. Why is assumed-fourth string quarterback Brandon Allen getting so much run in training camp? Is it hampering Trey Lance's (and Sam Darnold's) ability to develop and improve? Or is this potentially a motivation tactic employed by Kyle Shanahan? Plus, 49ers general manager John Lynch spoke to the media on Monday and he discussed, you guessed it, his quarterback room. Is the current division of quarterback reps enough for San Francisco to fully evaluate the quarterbacks that they have? And there's no chance that the 49ers are even thinking about carrying four quarterbacks on their 53-man roster to open the regular season, right? If not, who is the odd man out? Does everything the team has said about Brandon Allen second guess who that odd man out might be? What about non-quarterback storylines through one week of 49ers training camp? Brandon Aiyuk seems poised for superstardom. Do you buy it? Are you still not worried about Nick Bosa's contract status? And who on the defensive line has stepped up in his absence?
