Yesterday, Adam Schaefter tweeted that Russell Wilson now becomes the first quarterback to start for a team that he beat in the Super Bowl.

0:07.0

And Brett Coleman is a blue check, but I'm sorry, Brett, I haven't heard of you.

0:11.6

Now I have.

0:12.2

I don't understand, Brett says.

0:13.8

Jimmy G. just did that literally three years ago.

0:17.0

And I had to stop thinking, what's he talking about?

0:19.3

When did the 49ers beat the, when did the Patriots beat the 49ers? No, he beat the 49ers himself.

0:28.4

He did it on himself. Here it is. You need that throw. He can't make that throw. You make that throw and you're the champs. Just like Jared Gauth the year before when he missed Brandon Cooks twice, but especially in the third quarter when they could have taken the lead and won the game. You make that throw, you're the champions. You overthrow him. That's it. Some guys make that throw. Some guys don't. Yeah, well, meanwhile, the other guy on the other team made like four of those throws in the fourth quarter to make sure his team wins.

0:55.4

Exactly. Right. Right. That's a point. You make, you have those opportunities. You make those throws. You become a champion. And Jimmy G had his chance. And, you know, it's funny. I saw who was it yesterday. Eric Armstead talking about Jimmy G that he saved the 49ers or whatever. Look, he'll take a team that's 4 and 13 to make him 9 and 8 or 10 and 7, but he's not going to win you a Super Bowl. He's just not. He needs to have a great team around him. He needs to have the 2,000 Ravens, 85 Bears. He needs to have an all-time great collection of talent around him to win a Super Bowl.

1:28.0

And he had that three years ago, and he still didn't win a Super Bowl with the 49ers. So, you know, sometimes you just are who you are. Not everybody is going to win a Super Bowl. Not everybody's going to be a franchise quarterback. Not everybody is going to be one of the best who have ever done it. And clearly, Jimmy G is not that guy all right would you rather quarterback market edition would you rather take a first round or excuse me would you rather

1:48.9

trade a first round pick for jimmy g or a late round pick for carson wince oh i know the answer for me

1:55.3

this is easy i yeah i'm not trading a first round pick for jimmy garapolo sorry negative

2:00.2

ghost rider like absolutely a no chance, no point, never, ever, ever. Am I trading a first round pick for a quarterback that I don't look at as me one of the 20 best quarterbacks in football? Certainly not in the top half of the league. And wait, the guy that we're talking about, a late round pick, Carson Wentz, has more talent than Jimmy Garoppolo.

2:19.7

I mean, they both do bonehead things. I mean, straight up, but they're both free agents, which guy are you taking? I'm taking Wentz over Jimmy Jean. I am too. I think there's more upside there. Yes. I mean, listen, I think if you had Carson Wentz on the 49ers the last few years,

2:34.3

my basic thought would be the 49ers were better football team then.

2:37.7

Yes, I think if you had Carson Wentz on the 49ers the last few years, my basic thought would be the 49ers were a better football team then. Yes, I'm sorry. I mean, I know Carson Wentz does some dumb things. I get that. But so does Jimmy Garapolo. Everybody has seemed to have forgot that since the season's over. Everyone's like, look, he wins. Look at that. He wins. Every time he's on, he saved the team. He wins.

2:51.3

I want to go, yeah, okay. But, I mean, there's a lot of quarterbacks we could have put in San Francisco, and they would have saved the team and won. I mean, period. Nick Mullen, like I've always talked about before, his first 15 games ever with the 49ers had like the best stats in the history of football at quarterback.

3:06.9

And I know,

3:07.6

Shanahan's a genius.

3:09.3

He makes everybody

3:10.0

look pretty good.

3:10.8

So, yes,
