Brock Purdy has been a polarizing figure ever since he burst onto the scene with the 49ers. Some people love him, some people doubt him, but one thing’s for sure: he’s a winner.
He’s led the 49ers to a Super Bowl appearance and two NFC Championship games, and he’s put up some impressive numbers along the way. But can he take that next step and bring a Lombardi Trophy back to San Francisco? I believe he can.
Purdy has a proven track record of success in Kyle Shanahan’s offense. He’s efficient, he’s productive, and he knows how to win. And let’s not forget about the incredible supporting cast around him. With weapons like Christian McCaffrey, George Kittle, and Brandon Aiyuk, Purdy has everything he needs to succeed.
It’s important to remember that Purdy’s “failures” have come with some serious context. He suffered a brutal injury in the 2022 NFC Championship game, and the 2024 season was marred by injuries to key players.
In the one season where Purdy and the majority of the 49ers’ stars were healthy, they went to the Super Bowl. With a healthy roster and Purdy leading the charge, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them back in the big game very soon. Don’t sleep on Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers!
