He is a bust but Nick Bosa has been playing much better since they teamed up in San Francisco mid season, I dont know if it is a comfort thing.

Doesn’t he have to win the SB first before anointing him the MVP of the game?

To answer the question though, he would likely be the first 7th rounder to win a SB MVP award. I can’t honestly think of another 7th rounder that has won it. He wouldn’t be the lowest drafted QB to win the award though.

No, he wouldn't be.

Who was the other 7th rounder to win it?

would have been nice if you had told me who the other ones are.

Malcolm Smith (Seahawks) was the most recent one.

Great call on that one!

The ending is what I predict before the game however I didn’t think it would be because of an epic choke job in the 2nd half. The Niners got real lucky in this one.

Should be a fun matchup with the Chiefs.

lol! Yall totally got lucky. Lions lost that game in epic fashion. Congrats on the win though. Was this Purdy’s first come from behind win?
Any Packers fans around to fill him in?

Just checked it actually Julian Edelman is the most recent. I thought he was undrafted tbh.

Oh true... I erased that one from memory because I thought Stephon Gilmore deserved it more.

He’s unconventional, he’s a little like Doug flutie. Fans either hate that a 5-11 dork is beating their team, or that their QB isn’t as good.

I think he’s top 12 which when you consider where he was drafted is amazing

He’s getting the Dak treatment from a lot of NFL fans. They hate him simply because he plays for the Niners. Dak gets the same hate, although lately Dak has deserved the criticism for his playoff “performances”.

He is better than top 12 . He is a top 5 qb

This is not too surprising. I’ve seen Niners fans on other platforms say that they have been shocked by how average Chase Young is. He sucked in Washington, why wouldn’t he suck in San Fran?

I agree with you but even this statement could be considered hate. That’s the problem.

He is better than top 12 . He is a top 5 qb


And Jalen hurts was top 5 last year

Lamar Jackson was a few weeks ago.

I think people are way too prisoner to the moment

Saying Brock purdy is a top 12 QB is reasonable. It implies on a given Sunday he can be a top 5 guy to a top 12 guy. Which is the truth for most QBs in the top 12

I’m sure some would

I’ve typically defended him. He has his limits but he has his strengths

I’ve always said that the offense for San Fran is better now than it ever was with jimmy G

I don’t think just anyone could be the QB. I think he makes great plays. I think he’s definitely young. He makes a few mistakes, but I like some of the things he does on the field. He’s very crafty

How dare you! Haven’t you heard? Brock Turdy is better than Pat Mahomes now.

I wouldnt say lately, since his rookie contract Dak has been underachieving and his total performance has been disproportionate to money he earns and adoration he gets from Cowboys fans. Flip side Purdy has massively overachieved, has already won twice the playoff games Dak did in a season and a half.

Purdy just doesnt look the part, if he was 6'5, could hurl 75 yards or if he ran 4.4 forty as a high first rounder you wouldnt have anyone doubt him. However people forget much of quarterback position is mental.
