Rich is the only guy that actually legitimately praises Purdy for what he is good at. He doesn’t give the credit to every other guy on the team and say he’s just a game manager and beneficiary of being on a talented team. Not unlike Joe Montana, or Steve Young… Thank you, Rich.!!
I’ve always hated that “game manager” term the media uses. Technically they are all game managers, that’s literally what the QB’s job is is to read what the defense is doing, execute the offense and manage the damn game.
Niner Fan since 1972 when John Brodie was QB. In my humble opinion Purdy is the best QB since Steve Young. Purdy has a chance to be great. His moxie is Montana like. Along with his coolness.
If he can nab 500 more yards, in the next 3 games, he will have thrown for the most yards, of any 49ers QB, in the history of the organization. Seems like a sure thing. And, an amazing achievement for a 2nd year player.
Love that Purdy said that McCaffery should be MVP. Should we take away from McCaffery because he runs behind Trent Williams? Should we take away McCaffery because he gets great blocking from receivers and tight ends? No. Should McCaffery win the Offensive Player of the Year? Yes. But if a Quarterback is going to be the MVP it should be Purdy.
Meanwhile everyone who thinks a superstar QB can win it all by themselves watching Mahomes pulling his hair out. Holding it against a QB for having weapons is the dumbest argument I’ve heard ever in the history of football.
Yes all the weapons they say help Brock so he can't be MVP are same weapons drawing attention so teams can't stack box but I guess only purdy gets penalised for that lol
People needs to recognize something. This 49ers team, this team of superstars; McCaffrey, Deebo, Kittle, Aiyuk, Williams, Bosa, Warner, etc; they voted a second year, last pick in the draft, former 3rd team, 23 year old QB with a total of seven starts in his career as a team captain before the season. I mean, really think about that. A lot of football had been played by the rest of that roster, a lot of guys that have been around the league for a long time, a lot of guys with leadership qualities and experience, they voted as a team captain. Seriously, what does that say about him?
And contrast that against the same team NOT voting Trey Lance, the 3rd pick in the draft, a team captain in any of his seasons. Brock is different. Special player. Period.
One of the reasons Brock Purdy is so important to the team is his leadership. How many young quarterbacks having the success Purdy has up to this point without letting it go to their heads. Purdy is perfect for the 49ers. The 49ers run a complex offense with lots of moving parts, and to run it as hot as it is capable it requires a high level of calm, lightning fast processing to get the ball out fast. One of the big reasons the 49ers have so many weapons is because Purdy processes at an elite level, gets through his reads and gets to the ball to the best option and does not play favorites. Brock can make all the passes, has the speed and athleticism to extend plays and keep defenses honest but is always looking to pass downfield. While Brock does have the rocket like are so other quarterbacks posses, his passes are thrown with touch and accuracy making it easier for his target to catch balls in stride and add YAC. Brock is on a great team with some great players, but Brock makes them better.
Quite simply, Purdy makes high level QB play look easy. His read-progressions, his pocket awareness, his anticipation, and most importantly, his mental resolve. The thing is, on any given pass play, there will be someone open on EVERY play. The only question is, can you as the QB find that player in the sea of bodies. Purdy finds that player almost every time. Again, he makes it LOOK easy.
The one thing that's been disappointing about Brocky Purdy this year is, instead of people acknowledging the historic performance that's happening before their eyes and that this might not be seen again, it is sad. I mean, the kid is breaking records set by legends and hall of fame QB, some not even done before and all I hear is he's surrounded by a good team. He's in his 2nd year and this proficient? Just wait till he has more experience and an off-season to work with his weapons. Yall forgetting he's fresh off and surgery and didn't have training. 😂 I love watching him play, it is truly inspiring what he's been able to do with all the hate and others counting you out.
@@wilvictor it's not about him being the MVP for me cause I really don't care. Just simply acknowledge how good he is in his early stage of his career instead of using how good his team is against him. I mean he has a lot of dogs that love to eat and he is feeding. Can't blame him for doing his job
@@Rasyaady11 people like to say "anyone can do it" without really acknowledging the 49ers moved off of a qb that took them to the Superbowl and the 3rd pick of the draft that they gave up a ton of draft capital for. If anyone could do it, where tf are those guys? Purdy is a great player forged at a blue collar school, not a blue chip one. He is able to make great reads behind an NFL caliber line because he had to play behind a not so great college one. Easy to appreciate one of the best o-lines when you have that level of mental processing, which honestly isn't a terrible thing to have when you aren't the most physically gifted guy. The ability to throw to open guys that won't get hit and run for more yards is a stupidly underrated ability, apparently.
@@leohawk776best o line? That line is ranked 17th it was 22nd for most of the season .. so he's actually doing plenty more than ppl thinks he needs his credit his decision making is second to none
best qb picked since Burrow. That is undeniable if you look at how they played. People think the draft is an exact science so they will never thing Purdy is who he is but it takes a blind man to not see this kid is special.
The fact that Purdy is part of the conversation as a front runner for MVP is a compelling statement. He is younger than every other in MVP contention by many miles.
To me MVP is who you CAN NOT AFFORD TO LOSE. As a niners fan, to me that is Purdy. I'd way rather lose CMC than the qb who is breaking numerous nfl records right now. Deebo calmed him a humble beast. Purdy's elite processing speed is what makes the whole offense go. Jimmy could not do what Brock does. When Jimmy got pressure in his face, he took a sack. Damn near every time. Niners fans know cuz we watched all those games and watched all Brocks games.
This is so obvious. Purdy has improved as the season has progressed. People blame him for our 3 losses when he was concussed where we scored 17 pts..when other teams have lost games whilst putting up less points than that. I'd rather have Brock available and CMC injured if I had to pick one for a playoff game.
I'm a Niners fan since the early 80's ... My favorite throw in the game Sunday was when they were 3 and 11 ... Cardinals blitz ... Purdy with no hesitation throws the hot route in Kittle .. with a man in his grill puts the ball in the perfect spot where kittle already had the first down , but because of where it was placed it allowed kittle to get additional yards. That's the kind of throw that makes a decent QB into a great one. Also the big difference in how Purdy plays .. he is always looking down field even when pressured.
@@riteousrighthand6144 that's the part that's so hard to stop the Niners offense... Purdy can shred you on the blitz and will pick apart a zone defense. You have to play man to man against the Niners... The issue is you need both the discipline to keep up with the motion and the skill players to keep up with Niners weapons... If not Purdy will find the open receiver and that has led to a lot of explosive plays this year.
I watched Patrick Mahomes throw a terrible interception yesterday I remember thinking "Purdy doesn't make throws like that." Yet Patrick can get away with it without a word, but if Purdy did that everyone would be saying "see, I told you so."
To be fair, Patrick has been to 3 SB's and won 2 of them. He has earned the right to make mistakes because of that. In due time, Purdy will hopefully be there.
@byronsmith3152 mahomes had a great team those years, they went to the playoffs with Smith but no one is making that comparison. He has started losing players and it is finally starting to make him look average. He obviously has a great arm but he has not played great. Sure there have been a lot of drops but a part of that is because he is throwing too receivers late. I've seen several throws that would have been easier receptions if he threw the ball a half second earlier with a little less of a rocket.
The MVP should come down to one question: with the season on the line, who would you do without? My answer is CMC. Why? What did CMC do when Brock went down in the NFCCG? Brock still has Deebo, Aiyuk, Kittle, Juaun, Mitchell, JP Mason, Juice. He can distribute the ball and still make passes and big plays. He does it every week. The buck doesn't stop with CMC. Unless you're expecting CMC to command and run the Shannahan offense from the RB position, the MVP is Purdy.
by this logic we're kind of saying... josh johnson should have beaten the eagles last year. not even jimmy garoppolo was beating the eagles - even with those playmakers. brock purdy 40 burgered them because he'a fucking elite QB
@@thebluemeeple yes, but the QB has to know how to run the offense. That's what makes Brock special. Aiyuk and Kittle didn't have the seasons they're having before Brock got there. CMC wasn't the CMC he is now in Carolina. Brock is commanding the offense in a way that's putting everyone in a position to succeed. That's an MVP.
@@uglytuco3829I'm 100% with you. The system is elevated with Purdy at the helm. He's making good decisions quickly while also extending plays when needed. Purdy has brought the long ball that we did not have during Shanahan's tenure. Defenses are getting stretched since they can't gameplan everything now.
For the last couple of decades Niner fans have speculated and wonder how great Joe Montana would have been in the modern NFL. How many more Supebowls would he have won... How many more records would he own? Well... with Purdy we just may have a glimpse of what that would have looked like. He's that good.
As a German 49ers fan since 1982 I can only say, THIS Lynch/Shanahan Team is a gift, a weapon, a dream! But, it needs also fortune to close it with the Lombardy Trophy in February, too. Let‘s enjoy this ride, go Niners 👍🏼
the beauty of Purdy is that he always *_looks_* like he's "rolling it out" the greatest compliment you'll ever receive ? damn man, you make that look so simple
Hard to say. I saw the 88-90 and 93-94 teams and those were monster squads full of HoFamers. This team is in the conversation, though. They remind me of the 90 squad when we belted the Broncos 55-10. They made it look easy.
@@uglytuco3829 I personally think top to bottom this team is the most talented. Now, will that talent result in the same fate as the teams you mentioned……. (We’ll see)
@@ninersdodgersthunder I dunno also been a life long fan I think that 94 team was better. We had Prime time, Rod Woodson, Ronnie Lott, Jerry, Ricky Waters, Jr. Bryant, Etc Etc.
Ravens are a huge test, the Browns and Bengals both beat them during Purdys only losing streak of his career. The niners Superbowl window is wide open, no more excuses, no more Jimmy G, lets get number 6
if he was the #1 pick in the draft, he would be considered an MVP lock.. the only reason he isn't is because he was drafted last and people think there is no way someone drafted that low can be the reason the team is winning... the guy is 16-3 in the regular season, 2-1 in the playoffs (loss when injured at Philly).
Unlike most people. I haven't forgotten the Philly game last January. The answer about Value is self explanatory to any Niners fan....we stilll believe we could have gone to the SB if he had not got hurt...we can figure out a CMC injury IMO because Shanny is a RB wizard..he once schemed Mostert to rush for 200 yrds in an NFC Championship game..He can always figure out the run game. The pass game has never looked like this in SF since the Steve Young years....Purdy is special and we HAVE to keep him healthy to have any chance at the SB. I love CMC a lot..but if I had to choose between him and Brock for a playoff game..I d' rather have Brock available.. CMC will be OPOY and 1st team All Pro..but he's not the player carrying our SB hopes on his right arm..sorry man.
Reminds me of that post by an Eagles fan calling Purdy a geek before he dropped 42 on their team😂 If you look at that video with his family, he is all smiles in front of them and then his expression changes as soon as he turns away
Thank you, Rich, my thoughts exactly! He's never going to be a flashy personality, but he's already confident enough to carry this team. A couple more years to hone his skills and him and Shanahan will revive a Niners dynasty!
Last year, the 49ers won half their games pretty well and squeaked a few extra wins and struggled against good teams with Jimmy G at the helm. People forget that Brock Purdy took over and in his first start smoked Tom Brady 35-0 before the 49ers took the foot off the gas and Brady scored in garbage time. This team has never lost since when Purdy, Deebo, and CMC are healthy. The 3 game losing streak had injuries to Deebo, Trent Williams, CMC (playing hurt) and Purdy was concussed. Purdy didn't throw INTs until after being concussed. Even then, the rookie K missed an easy game winning field goal. The 49ers should be 12-2.
Brock Purdy has elite processing ability, the likes of which are very, very rare amongst NFL QB's. And he's just getting started. Imagine how good he's going to look when he's more fluent in all of the nuances of the NFL QB position.
Mahomet was Purdy when he came into the league. Went to a 12-4 team with weapons and a great defense lol no one said anything like what they're saying about Purdy though.
Right and what's he doing now without those weapons now nothing much and screaming at refs its so ridiculous at this point the mental gymnastics people do to not give Brock credit its so easy anyone can do it in this system say a multi year vet in Josh Johnson he didn't get hurt till the 3rd quarter but he did absolutely nothing strange though it was just the system anyone can be slotted with all those weapons
Only thing as a 49ers fan that I want to see before the playoffs start is if Moody can make a game winning field goal. Need to get him in that scenario again just so if they need it in the playoffs he’s not thinking about that miss against the Browns.
I watched Purdy give my Sooners fits for 4 seasons, and not just my Sooners but every other team he faced in the Big XII. Okay, sure Big XII defenses aren't exactly 'Bama or Georgia or Michigan, but he was always making plays and beating teams that Iowa State had no business beating on paper. I knew he would become a good NFL QB, and I lobbied in fan forums, chats, etc. for my Raiders to take a flyer on him (of course, they did not) but even I had no idea he would be this good this quickly.
Yea he’s been ballin all season long. Everytime he touches the ball whether it’s running it or catching it they get these huge 10-20 yard gains it seems like.
Yes he is having a great year, but insane? He was a 1k/1k guy on a worse team. Now I fully believe if he was on pace for another season like that but closer to 2k/1k, then I would call that insane.
Fun fact Sam D came into the game for two three snaps, whatever it was, and it looked scary! This is a dude that is practicing with the Sam team. CMC goes out for a play or two or three.... Offense does not miss a beat. What was that about Purdy and CMC. I get it CMC is a beast! And had Purdy not been playin as he is, CMC is the front runner 100%
I saw a quick clip of Deebo being asked who out of all current QB’s he would want as his QB. Quickly he said “Purdy, no doubt. He’s the best QB I’ve ever had and could ask for.”
The mental acrobatics people bring up to credit anyone but Purdy makes me want him to win MVP. MVP should be Mahomes, he goes down, oh it's Goff, he goes down, oh it's Hurts, he goes down, oh no it's Dak, he goes down. Oh why not non-QB it's Tyreek, he takes a rest, so now it's CMC or Lamar? CMC deserves it so well, but I just want them to have salt in the mouth like death sea.
Rich is a f-ing genius. He nailed it about Purdy, and all the comparisons. Another thing, Purdy is a killer, you nailed it there! Cold blooded and savage, methodical and thorough...
Not gonna lie Rich, I got goosebumps when you were talking about Purdy coming into his own. When he finally realizes or accepts that he can put his feet up in his own house, chills.
Lets be real here. Right now the Niners are the most unstoppable team in all of the NFL. Barring serious injuries to their key players on offense and defense they are a lock to be in the super Bowl and will probably win that also.
@@RandomGuyAgain Exactly. That’s what I think. It’s a built in prejudice because he’s the last player takin’ he can’t be this good. It has to be the talent around him. 🙄 I tell them jackasses HE STILL HAS TO MAKE THE READS AND ACCURATELY THROW THE FOOTBALL AND NOT TURN IT OVER! Smh (Me head hurts) sigh
Brock Purdy has a good leadership. That's why his tan mates appreciates and praised him. He is really doing great on his game performance. Most of their winning games consist of touchdowns. II want to see him play in the Superbowl. I just hope that he won't have a big head like Mahone.
49ers are successful because their superstar skill players deliver crushing blocks when they don’t have the ball. It’s their mentality, not just only their talent.
People don’t talk about how during their 3 game skid, Brock had them in position to win in 2 of them and Moody missed them. Brock is the best QB this season.
@@jegca IF you think about it, if not for Purdy pressing late in the 4th, that game isn't a blow out. Shoot, if not for Purdy, they really get blown out.
People can't get over where Purdy was drafted, 'if he was really good he would have gone in the first round', 'he's in the most QB friendly offense in football, of course he's going to put up stats' - sure, he doesn't have the physical traits that scouts want to see in a high draft pick but he has the mentality to be a great quarterback. Quiet confidence, unfazed by pressure, the ability to shrug off bad plays and the experience of 46 starts at Iowa State, not all of them great by any means but a ton of lessons to learn from. He isn't great yet but he's much, much better than all the naysayers think.
"Would they be as good as Brock Purdy? We'll never know". That is a complete cop-out. We know. You just have to watch them play to see the difference. Brock is decisive, has a killer mentality, always looks for the big play, and usually makes it. He's strong, quick, and accurate. Trent Williams said Brock can make any throw on the field, and he's right. There's no comparison to those 2nd-rate QBs you mentioned. Even when you're trying to stand up for the guy, you still can't help but fall into the trap of diminishing him.
Purdy is right about CMC... but Purdy is playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers... he wants the Superbowl MVP... that'll shut up the haters FOREVER... my favorite part as they zoomed into the crowd in ARIZONA.... that red wasn't Cardinals.... it was 49ers fans.... and Purdy is their native son.
Rich is the only guy that actually legitimately praises Purdy for what he is good at. He doesn’t give the credit to every other guy on the team and say he’s just a game manager and beneficiary of being on a talented team. Not unlike Joe Montana, or Steve Young… Thank you, Rich.!!

I've often wondered how many teams are kicking themselves for not picking Purdy when they had the chance.
If an NFL team went to the 49ers this offseason and offered 3 first round picks, I honestly do not think that the 49ers would agree to a trade.
The fact that Purdy is part of the conversation as a front runner for MVP is a compelling statement. He is younger than every other in MVP contention by many miles.
He’s rolling it out at a clip of 9.8 yards per attempt! He’s rolled over six #1 QB draft picks this season.
9.9 ;) and on the verge of getting to Aaron Rodgers 122 rating! Insane!
Per ATTEMPT, not completion. THAT'S how efficient he's playing.

A lot of ex-Nfl qbs are fans of him too. Kurt Warner, JTO Sullivan, Chase Daniel, Steve Young, even Aaron Rodgers acknowledges his moxie
Jimmy G does NOT make the wide open throw to CMC. He either gets strip sacked, or does not see him altogether.
CMC even helped JG throw for TD
The MVP should come down to one question: with the season on the line, who would you do without?
My answer is CMC. Why? What did CMC do when Brock went down in the NFCCG? Brock still has Deebo, Aiyuk, Kittle, Juaun, Mitchell, JP Mason, Juice. He can distribute the ball and still make passes and big plays. He does it every week. The buck doesn't stop with CMC.

@@penoyer79 no I'm saying Purdy is MVP because he's more valuable in the QB position than CMC is in the RB position.
@@thebluemeeple yes, but the QB has to know how to run the offense. That's what makes Brock special. Aiyuk and Kittle didn't have the seasons they're having before Brock got there. CMC wasn't the CMC he is now in Carolina.
Brock is commanding the offense in a way that's putting everyone in a position to succeed. That's an MVP.
@@uglytuco3829I'm 100% with you. The system is elevated with Purdy at the helm. He's making good decisions quickly while also extending plays when needed. Purdy has brought the long ball that we did not have during Shanahan's tenure. Defenses are getting stretched since they can't gameplan everything now.
For the last couple of decades Niner fans have speculated and wonder how great Joe Montana would have been in the modern NFL. How many more Supebowls would he have won... How many more records would he own?
Well... with Purdy we just may have a glimpse of what that would have looked like.
He's that good.
The problem is not just being last in the draft. It is also that he is making it look easy.
Purdy is football equivalent of "baby faced assassin"!
Rich a real one from day one, we remember you and your son talking about ROTY Purdy last season!
This dialog feels like when you play Madden Franchise and you’re crushing every CPU opponent. Love it!
As a German 49ers fan since 1982 I can only say, THIS Lynch/Shanahan Team is a gift, a weapon, a dream! But, it needs also fortune to close it with the Lombardy Trophy in February, too. Let‘s enjoy this ride, go Niners 👍🏼
Well said
the beauty of Purdy is that he always *_looks_* like he's "rolling it out"
the greatest compliment you'll ever receive ? damn man, you make that look so simple
As a Bay Area millennial, this Niners team is the best team I’ve ever seen! ❤ 🤩
I’m a lifelong 49ers fan of over 40 years and this roster is the most talented I believe.
Hard to say. I saw the 88-90 and 93-94 teams and those were monster squads full of HoFamers. This team is in the conversation, though. They remind me of the 90 squad when we belted the Broncos 55-10. They made it look easy.
@@uglytuco3829 I personally think top to bottom this team is the most talented. Now, will that talent result in the same fate as the teams you mentioned……. (We’ll see)
shout out to all the broke millennials out there. Though if you live in the Bay Area you probably ain't broke.
@@ninersdodgersthunder I dunno also been a life long fan I think that 94 team was better. We had Prime time, Rod Woodson, Ronnie Lott, Jerry, Ricky Waters, Jr. Bryant, Etc Etc.
Ravens are a huge test, the Browns and Bengals both beat them during Purdys only losing streak of his career. The niners Superbowl window is wide open, no more excuses, no more Jimmy G, lets get number 6
if he was the #1 pick in the draft, he would be considered an MVP lock.. the only reason he isn't is because he was drafted last and people think there is no way someone drafted that low can be the reason the team is winning... the guy is 16-3 in the regular season, 2-1 in the playoffs (loss when injured at Philly).
That throw to Debos back shoulder in corner of end zone was a crazy dime!!
The best thing the 49’ers could do is keep people crapping on Purdy! That energy just seems to galvanize the team and bring out the dawg in him!
He reminds me of a young Brady with his eyes down field and pocket presence but he can scramble too. Fantastic talent
Unlike most people. I haven't forgotten the Philly game last January. The answer about Value is self explanatory to any Niners fan....we stilll believe we could have gone to the SB if he had not got hurt...we can figure out a CMC injury IMO because Shanny is a RB wizard..he once schemed Mostert to rush for 200 yrds in an NFC Championship game..He can always figure out the run game.
The pass game has never looked like this in SF since the Steve Young years....Purdy is special and we HAVE to keep him healthy to have any chance at the SB.
I love CMC a lot..but if I had to choose between him and Brock for a playoff game..I d' rather have Brock available..
CMC will be OPOY and 1st team All Pro..but he's not the player carrying our SB hopes on his right arm..sorry man.
Wow. What a simple, straight forward, analysis that hit all the nails on the head and combined with wit was a pleasure to listen to.
One of the best takes on Purdy I’ve heard so far. He’s taking full advantage of his opportunity
Brilliant Rich. I could listen to you talk about my niners all day.
When that boy Purdy gets comfortable in this team, its gonna be something special in the coming years for sure.
The paying off the mortgage thing analogy was perfect
One of the few analysts that actually makes sense when they speak about Purdy.
Purdy should get Rookie of the year,comebck player of the year,NFC player of the year,MVP of league and if they win SB that MVP as well.
Purdy is the MVP he is on fire all year. 🔥
Reminds me of that post by an Eagles fan calling Purdy a geek before he dropped 42 on their team😂
If you look at that video with his family, he is all smiles in front of them and then his expression changes as soon as he turns away
Can't wait to see how they stack up against the Ravens next Monday night...Stay Humble Faithful!! One Week At A Time.... Love my 9ERS BANG BANG ‼
Thank you, Rich, my thoughts exactly! He's never going to be a flashy personality, but he's already confident enough to carry this team. A couple more years to hone his skills and him and Shanahan will revive a Niners dynasty!
From your lips to God’s Ears
Last year, the 49ers won half their games pretty well and squeaked a few extra wins and struggled against good teams with Jimmy G at the helm. People forget that Brock Purdy took over and in his first start smoked Tom Brady 35-0 before the 49ers took the foot off the gas and Brady scored in garbage time. This team has never lost since when Purdy, Deebo, and CMC are healthy. The 3 game losing streak had injuries to Deebo, Trent Williams, CMC (playing hurt) and Purdy was concussed. Purdy didn't throw INTs until after being concussed. Even then, the rookie K missed an easy game winning field goal. The 49ers should be 12-2.
Brock Purdy has elite processing ability, the likes of which are very, very rare amongst NFL QB's. And he's just getting started. Imagine how good he's going to look when he's more fluent in all of the nuances of the NFL QB position.
Spot on, sir. You're one of the few that has this spot on.
Hey Rich-
Thanks for referring to the Santa Clara Forty Niners! The 49er offices, training facility, and stadium are in Santa Clara 50 MILES AWAY!!!
"The Santa Clara Game Manager" lol'd
Same.
Love you Rich, glad to follow you all these years.
Beautifully said. Thank you.
Purdy is NOT just rolling it out. He looks polished and gets the ball where it NEEDS to be. Bambi with fangs LMAO.
10:00
OMG yes! Rich you nailed it!
Mahomet was Purdy when he came into the league. Went to a 12-4 team with weapons and a great defense lol no one said anything like what they're saying about Purdy though.
Right and what's he doing now without those weapons now nothing much and screaming at refs its so ridiculous at this point the mental gymnastics people do to not give Brock credit its so easy anyone can do it in this system say a multi year vet in Josh Johnson he didn't get hurt till the 3rd quarter but he did absolutely nothing strange though it was just the system anyone can be slotted with all those weapons
Only thing as a 49ers fan that I want to see before the playoffs start is if Moody can make a game winning field goal. Need to get him in that scenario again just so if they need it in the playoffs he’s not thinking about that miss against the Browns.
I watched Purdy give my Sooners fits for 4 seasons, and not just my Sooners but every other team he faced in the Big XII. Okay, sure Big XII defenses aren't exactly 'Bama or Georgia or Michigan, but he was always making plays and beating teams that Iowa State had no business beating on paper. I knew he would become a good NFL QB, and I lobbied in fan forums, chats, etc. for my Raiders to take a flyer on him (of course, they did not) but even I had no idea he would be this good this quickly.
31 other GMs not sold on this kid. So what can u say about the fans.
RE's a real one. From day one he's been rocking with Purdy and CMC.
Couldn’t have said it any better Rich 😎🙌🏼
I know MVP is a QB award, but what CMC is doing this season is insane
Agreed. And it’s a QB award because if left with the choice to sit either Purdy or CMC you have to sit the RB.
Cmc will be OPOY
Yea he’s been ballin all season long. Everytime he touches the ball whether it’s running it or catching it they get these huge 10-20 yard gains it seems like.
Yes he is having a great year, but insane? He was a 1k/1k guy on a worse team. Now I fully believe if he was on pace for another season like that but closer to 2k/1k, then I would call that insane.
Fun fact Sam D came into the game for two three snaps, whatever it was, and it looked scary! This is a dude that is practicing with the Sam team. CMC goes out for a play or two or three.... Offense does not miss a beat. What was that about Purdy and CMC. I get it CMC is a beast! And had Purdy not been playin as he is, CMC is the front runner 100%
Fantastic take. Right on.
High level team, would like to see them win the Super Bowl. They can beat the Ravens or any other team.
Nailed it on this one.
I saw a quick clip of Deebo being asked who out of all current QB’s he would want as his QB. Quickly he said “Purdy, no doubt. He’s the best QB I’ve ever had and could ask for.”
I liked that house analogy!
The mental acrobatics people bring up to credit anyone but Purdy makes me want him to win MVP. MVP should be Mahomes, he goes down, oh it's Goff, he goes down, oh it's Hurts, he goes down, oh no it's Dak, he goes down. Oh why not non-QB it's Tyreek, he takes a rest, so now it's CMC or Lamar? CMC deserves it so well, but I just want them to have salt in the mouth like death sea.
Love seeing Purdy play as well as all 49ers. I’m blessed to watch em and I’m soaking it in man! Niners fans are lucky as hell right now.
That td pass to cmc on the roll out to the left purdy didn't even stop to replant himself, he threw on the run
Rich is a f-ing genius. He nailed it about Purdy, and all the comparisons. Another thing, Purdy is a killer, you nailed it there! Cold blooded and savage, methodical and thorough...
Great segment!
I was born in the 80’s. I’ve seen Rich Eisen covering sports for most of my life. Dude always reminds me of Dan Aykroyd. Lol.
Not gonna lie Rich, I got goosebumps when you were talking about Purdy coming into his own. When he finally realizes or accepts that he can put his feet up in his own house, chills.
would love to see Purdy and McCaffrey win the super bowl this year - love watching them
Lets be real here. Right now the Niners are the most unstoppable team in all of the NFL. Barring serious injuries to their key players on offense and defense they are a lock to be in the super Bowl and will probably win that also.
Bambi with Fangs! Perfect description.
Love Rich’s take but man just watch that back shoulder throw TD to Deebo left pylon was amazing
I’m TIRED of defending Brock Purdy to everybody I know! I mean, do those idiots actually WATCH football?! 🙄
That’s true. They just don’t watch. This is why they repeat everyone else’s talking points.
Well....they sit in front of a TV on Sunday's, but from what I have seen they get all their opinions from the "Talking Heads" during the week instead.
The only conclusion I can come to is they do it for the views and clicks.
@@RandomGuyAgain Exactly. That’s what I think. It’s a built in prejudice because he’s the last player takin’ he can’t be this good. It has to be the talent around him. 🙄
I tell them jackasses HE STILL HAS TO MAKE THE READS AND ACCURATELY THROW THE FOOTBALL AND NOT TURN IT OVER! Smh
(Me head hurts) sigh
Brock Purdy has a good leadership. That's why his tan mates appreciates and praised him. He is really doing great on his game performance. Most of their winning games consist of touchdowns. II want to see him play in the Superbowl. I just hope that he won't have a big head like Mahone.
I think his time as 3rd string qb and his exp in the Nfccg last season will ground him for years to come
Bambi with Fangs. Love it
Brock Purdy will join the legends, Joe Montana and Steve Young if he can pull off a SB win! My goodness he’s good.
SF 49ers are truly Amazzzzzzzzing!!!!
Well said Rich! There are so many Purdy haters, and the haters never gives Purdy credit.
Rich always so eloquent and yet nails it with Purdy as the “aw shucks” guy-- so you don’t see him coming
Well said Rich.
49ers are successful because their superstar skill players deliver crushing blocks when they don’t have the ball.
It’s their mentality, not just only their talent.
Right on Rich Eisen your spot on when it comes to Brock Purdy.
It's been 29 years since we won Super Bowl 29. It's the 9ers year! They are Purdy good after all!
Well said sir.
Rich nailed it once again
Love Rich, he’s got me ready to run through a wall
OMG Rich, love the Animal House reference!
Purdy..Bambi with fangs! That’s awesome!!
People don’t talk about how during their 3 game skid, Brock had them in position to win in 2 of them and Moody missed them. Brock is the best QB this season.
AND..... and.... CMC fumbled deep in the redzone.. if anything moody AND cmc lost that game..
to be honest, the only blowout was against the Bengals.. they had a FG try to win Cleveland and they were in a close shootout with Minnesota...
@@jegca IF you think about it, if not for Purdy pressing late in the 4th, that game isn't a blow out. Shoot, if not for Purdy, they really get blown out.
Against the Vikings, the cover 0 touchdown with seconds to go in the first half was the blow a concussed Purdy couldn't come back from.
Purdy elevates that offense to a place I haven't seen in forever
I'm glad Rich has our back. These other media folks will do anything to discount the 49ers.
Brock Purdy is the Silent Assassin.
The NFL should create MVP award for every position with a final vote of the best of all of them like the Heisman Trophy.
BANG BANG!
People can't get over where Purdy was drafted, 'if he was really good he would have gone in the first round', 'he's in the most QB friendly offense in football, of course he's going to put up stats' - sure, he doesn't have the physical traits that scouts want to see in a high draft pick but he has the mentality to be a great quarterback. Quiet confidence, unfazed by pressure, the ability to shrug off bad plays and the experience of 46 starts at Iowa State, not all of them great by any means but a ton of lessons to learn from. He isn't great yet but he's much, much better than all the naysayers think.
🎉🎉🎉BCB & his YAK BROTHERS ARE UNSTOPPABLE!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
"Would they be as good as Brock Purdy? We'll never know". That is a complete cop-out. We know. You just have to watch them play to see the difference. Brock is decisive, has a killer mentality, always looks for the big play, and usually makes it. He's strong, quick, and accurate. Trent Williams said Brock can make any throw on the field, and he's right. There's no comparison to those 2nd-rate QBs you mentioned. Even when you're trying to stand up for the guy, you still can't help but fall into the trap of diminishing him.
Purdy is right about CMC... but Purdy is playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers... he wants the Superbowl MVP... that'll shut up the haters FOREVER... my favorite part as they zoomed into the crowd in ARIZONA.... that red wasn't Cardinals.... it was 49ers fans.... and Purdy is their native son.
