Brock Purdy's starting job is currently secure, but he's not bench-proof in 2025. Here's how it could get interesting:

The #49ers don't have a QB controversy. At least not yet.

* The most impressive part of Mac Jones' brilliant, gutsy performance
* On Jones' leadership, accountablity
* Jones' worst throw was almost a killer
* Rams don't spend on LBs. It cost them
* Rams ran their failed final play more than once

Such an excellent breakdown of the 49ers play of the season.
(Yes, we’re five games in, but I’m calling it now.)
@eric-branch.bsky.social does it all — history stories, big picture looks and deep dives into special moments like this.
#49ers notes:
* Kendrick Bourne's four-day doghouse-to-penthouse journey
* Eddy Pineiro's hall pass
* Still no running room, but gritty CMC making impact

The story of the final snap:
The Rams tried to "big boy" but a backup who was the smallest player on the field helped turn them back.
“He told me, ‘Man, shoot the C gap. If you see them run the crunch, shoot the gap, f--- it up."
