STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Purdy's Week 1 performance exceeded Stafford's; preseason reps helped his readiness.

Purdy looked far better in Week 1 than Stafford despite the 49ers being cautious with preseason reps; the source contrasts Kyle Shanahan's measured approach to preseason (playing starters like Purdy, Samuel, Stribling, Black, and Sigle) with McVay's fear-based philosophy, suggesting Purdy's preparation paid off.
