Brock Purdy has played his ass off to date. Think about narratives: If Purdy was a 1st round pick, the sports world would call him a franchise QB and kiss his ass endlessly, but since he was last player drafted many expect him to be “just a guy”! He’s earned our respect! #NFL

Brock Purdy.

Still undefeated.
One win away from a Super Bowl appearance.
Still a 7th-round rookie.

Poise on 💯 pic.twitter.com/clWz0nIICh

.@49ers @brockpurdy13 knows how to throw a ball…probably any kind of ball b/c his mechanics are so sound. He throws with his legs and to to that you need great footwork. #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/Zhfsz9c4Ye

Brock Purdy is only the fifth QB to ever make it to an NFL Conference Championship in his rookie season 🔥💪

How does he stack up to these guys in his college and NFL career? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/Nk5II4z0NM

“You see it every day in the way he prepares. You see it in practice. In games he’s been an impressive guy to be around in the huddle. Not shocked anymore. It’s just who he is now.” 🙌

Brock Purdy was picked last — 262nd overall — in the 2022 NFL Draft.

He entered his rookie season as the 3rd string QB in San Francisco.

After being thrust into the starting job mid-season, Purdy just clinched the 49ers a spot in the NFC Championship Game. pic.twitter.com/1v9DF6X1oU

Huge boost to Brock Purdy’s stock! Did exactly what the team needed him to do. Took what the Defense gave and got out of a few negative plays.

Championship Weekend QBs pre-NFL:

Pat Mahomes: 3-star recruit, was told he played in a gimmicky offense

Joe Burrow: Had to transfer before Year 4 to become a starter

Jalen Hurts: Was benched after starting 2 years

Brock Purdy: No. 839 in 2018 class, Mr. Irrelevant

Absolutely. Brock Purdy played a good game. People are way too simplistic with QB evaluations. Purdy was operating under brutal conditions. Dallas pass rush is real. That was an impressive performance — rookie or vet https://t.co/7w3bxL8e2G

Brock Purdy didn't have a moment at all yesterday, or honestly, all year, where I remember thinking, "What the hell are you doing?" We had a lot of those moments with Jimmy G. Brock Purdy is playing well. There is no question about that. pic.twitter.com/2mjEEeUoLi

Brock Purdy has as many playoff wins in the last 9 days as Dak Prescott has in his 7-year career

Reminder that Prescott makes roughly 40 times what Mr. Irrelevant does ($40M/year vs $934K per year)

Brock Purdy now has as many career playoff touchdowns (4) as Jimmy Garoppolo.
