Something Is Wrong With Jimmy Garoppolo
There was optimism surrounding the San Francisco 49ers’ offense as a result of Jimmy Garoppolo making his return to the lineup. That was a rather short-lived experience though.
There are now more questions about both Garoppolo’s impact on the field and most importantly his health. He was benched at halftime with the rationale provided being the 49ers’ intent to ‘protect’ him.
The 49ers’ final two drives ended in bad interceptions and Garoppolo was sacked three times overall. It appeared as though it was simply poor individual play from the quarterback as opposed to circumstances beyond his control impacting his play.
There have been questions about Garoppolo’s impact off-and-on throughout his career. If he can’t get it right soon, it may be time for the 49ers to look into making a change in the offseason.
