\"Brandon<\/p>\n

After watching the San Francisco 49ers weather adversity after adversity in 2024, the team has been met with their toughest challenge yet, with Brock Purdy officially ruled out for Week 12 with a shoulder injury and Brandon Allen set to take his place under center.Facing off against a Green Bay Packers team that was likely going to be favored anyway due to their status as the home team, any excitement for this match has dissipated within Niners Nation, with the question not necessarily if\u00a0Kyle Shanahan\u2019s team will lose, but by how much the deficit will be.<\/p>\n

And yet, in the NFL, no game is ever truly pointless, as underdogs win games all the time, and backup quarterbacks have a way of shocking opponents in their first appearance of the season, even if they often lose that shine after a game or two.<\/p>\n

Discussing his first chance to start a game since 2021 with reporters on Friday, Allen acknowledged the role Purdy has played in his preparation for the game, as\u00a0he\u2019s learned a lot\u00a0from backing up \u201cMr. Irrelevant\u201d over the years.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, he\u2019s unbelievable, the way he prepares. And you kind of have to to be able to execute this offense well. There are a lot of motions, a lot of shifts, a lot of things that go into it. And to be on top of all that, and you\u2019ve seen him on the road doing all that with silent cadence and all that,\u201d Allen told reporters.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo there is a lot that goes into it. And his preparation kind of was, when I first got here last year, watching him do, I was like, \u2018Okay, this is kind of how you have to study here.\u2019 Because you can go other places and offenses aren\u2019t as, aren\u2019t as complex, aren\u2019t as difficult so you can still study but you\u2019re looking at the same things week-to-week. But in this offense, we really do a good job moving guys around and getting guys open. So there\u2019s a lot of studying that goes into it. So watching him prepare and the way he does, I\u2019ve definitely tried to model my preparation after him.\u201d<\/p>\n

With just 263 total passing attempts in his career so far since being drafted by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the sixth round of the 2016 NFL draft, Allen is somewhat of an unknown, with the Arkansas product spending time with five different organizations over the last nine years. Can Allen prove he deserves nine more years of backup duty with a win over the Packers? Maybe so, but even if he doesn\u2019t, it sure sounds like his coach is comfortable with him under center, as the 49ers could have easily gone with\u00a0Josh Dobbs\u00a0instead if that wasn\u2019t the case.<\/p>\n

Kyle Shanahan is excited to see Brandon Allen run his 49ers offense<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Discussing the decision to go with Allen over Dobbs in Week 12, Shanahan told reporters on Friday that he really likes what the Arkansas QB brings to the table, as he\u2019s got all of the\u00a0tools and the in-scheme 49ers experience to make it a game.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think Brandon\u2019s a really good thrower, runs our offense well,\u201d Allen told reporters. \u201cHe\u2019s done a really good job since he\u2019s been here, been here two years now. Guys believe in him and believe he\u2019ll give us a good chance to win.\u201dAsked if fans should expect much of a scheme adjustment when the offense turns the keys over from Purdy to Allen, Shanahan said no, noting that they play the game in a similar way.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, there\u2019s not a big game-plan adjustment, this is something that we didn\u2019t think would happen early in the week,\u201d Shanahan noted. \u201cWe were fully preparing for Brock to go and getting a little surprised about this yesterday. Nothing has to change, so that\u2019s a good deal for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Would it have made more sense to give Dobbs the nod the Week 12? Potentially so, and\u00a0if Purdy was heading to IR, they probably would have done just that in order to capitalize on the \u201cPasstronaut\u2019s\u201d running abilities. But since that isn\u2019t the case, maybe Shanahan believes sticking to what works makes more sense than trying to draw up a new offense, especially since Dobbs is still available for a package of his own.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
