Crazy to think Brock Purdy is officially 26 years old today!
The former “Mr. Irrelevant” exceeded all expectations and has become a true franchise QB for the #49ers:
• 11,255 passing yards
• 81 pass TDs - 35 INTs
• 104.4 passer rating
• 67.7% completion rate
• 578 rush yards, 9 rush TDs
• 2023 pro bowler
• 2023 passer rating leader
• Led 49ers to Super Bowl LVIII
One year after giving trucks to his offensive line, Brock Purdy gave nine vehicles to 49ers’ fans in need — military veterans and families with children battling pediatric illness.
I have talked often about my INTs and I feel like #BrockPurdy plays a lot like me… He is mostly really good & makes a lot of big time throws, but it seems like every miss (which usually is a couple a game - which is actually very good) is an INT & the D rarely seems to drop any of his bad balls (unlike a lot of other guys)!
Working Theory: I def think there is something to guys who throw with more touch/less velocity have higher completion rates but also higher INT rates bc their passes are easier to catch for their guys and others!!
Thoughts?
