Celebrating an injury is just a level of classless I'm not willing to participate in.
What is there to celebrate?

The 49ers have always been able to identify good QB's. They drafted Brock Purdy in the 7th round this year for a reason.

I like Purdy out of College, and he led the team to a W over a good football team...nothing is a given. Cowboys have to continue to get better.

I’ll start by saying obviously nobody wishes for injuries and this is purely an analytical look at reality.

Jimmy G was quickly ruled out after his ankle injury and the rumor is because his X-ray showed a fracture of his lower tibia, which would mean he’s done for the year.

After what we saw against the Vikings when they played Dallas/Philly, I think the general consensus would be the NFC is a three team race between Dallas/Philly/SF. If Jimmy G is in fact done, no amount of defense will save them from Brock Purdy. And many consider SF not Philly Dallas’ biggest matchup problem in the playoffs.

We’ve always known winning a title involves some meaningful amount of luck, and it seems like the stars may be aligning this year for us.
When Dallas shows some consistency they might have a chance.

Amen brother. Life is just that, half of it is timing and luck.
Dallas could be the team, getting those variables when they count.

After watching Philly mow down a good Titans team to go 11-1, I don’t see where the stars appear to be aligning for the Cowboys. Philly put a stranglehold on the NFC East with their win today. The Cowboys are playing for a wildcard.

I’m not sure but could have sworn when the Niners played earlier on SNF or MNF, either Aikman or Collinsworth said “Kyle Shanahan is as excited to see Brock Purdy get game action as any qb he’s ever had.”

1) I understand coach speak, but 2) you aren’t feeding an analyst that quote unless you see something.

I’ll say this, don’t care who’s at qb for the Niners, they will be a difficult out for anyone

I think now is an easier walk into the Super Bowl for the Eagles. The Cowboys, if they win round one in a playoff will go to Philly. I don’t see them winning that then Minnesota probably goes to Philadelphia and gets cremated.

Dallas plays well in Philly

You guys are acting like they didn’t just win 33-17 to the Dolphins, who are no walk overs. That QB ain’t Jimmy G but they aren’t done yet. Jimmy G changes very little.

Jimmy G is holding them back,he is not even an average NFL QB.
