Honestly, trying really, really hard not to buy into hyperbole with Garoppolo.
I love everything I've seen from him and it would be really easy to proclaim him the next great Niners QB...
...but I'm not going to do that. One start in which he didn't throw a TD.
However....I can say this and it isn't hyperbole....
I haven't seen a QB in red and Gold look that comfortable in the pocket, deliver with that kind of precision, or just look like he belongs there more than Garoppolo since Steve Young. No joke.
Now next week it could all fall apart and he could look horrible, but for one week he looked fantastic. The release...oh my god the release. Its one of the fastest I've ever seen that in itself is preventing sacks. His feet are fantastic and he's more decisive than any 49er QB I've seen in decades.
If you don't believe me...

As I said, I'm making no proclamations for his future, but right now I'm pretty damn happy with him.
The other thing I'll say is this....Good QBs make the players around them better. That was on display on Sunday. Both Marquise Goodwin and Trent Taylor had career games.
Even if Garoppolo is the real deal, they are several pieces away so don't take this as "Niners gonna roll the west in 2018" or anything. Thats a long way off, but it looks right now like they might have solved the hardest position on the field to fill.
