The San Francisco 49ers are now in the driver’s seat as far as being the favorites to win this year’s Super Bowl. After a masterclass performance against the Philadelphia Eagles last Sunday, the 49ers have a lot to be proud of and nothing but respect for the game-winning quarterback, Brock Purdy.
Purdy completed 19 of 27 pass attempts for 314 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. He also ran for 26 yards on four attempts, proving his dual-threat capabilities. This performance put Purdy on the map as a legitimate MVP candidate, and many analysts are now outlining the steps he needs to take in order to become the first 49ers quarterback to win the award.
First off, Purdy must continue to be the leader of the offense. He must continue to make smart decisions with the ball and take care of it when running. He must also be able to spread the ball around to different receivers and get the most out of the weapons he has.
Second, Purdy must continue to lead the 49ers to victories. A good MVP candidate must be able to lead their team to success, and Purdy has done just that. He has led the team to a 6-2 record, and they are currently first in the NFC West. If he can continue to lead the team to victories, it will help strengthen his MVP case.
Third, Purdy must stay healthy. Injuries are a part of the game, but if Purdy wants to win the MVP, he must stay on the field. He has been able to stay healthy so far, but he must continue to do so in order to give himself the best chance to win the award.
Finally, Purdy must put up the numbers. He must continue to put up big numbers in both the passing and rushing game in order to give himself the best chance to win the award. If he can continue to put up big numbers, the voters will take notice and it will help strengthen his MVP case.
Brock Purdy is in the driver’s seat as far as becoming the first 49ers quarterback to win the MVP award. He has been playing at a high level so far this season, and if he can continue to do so, he will have a great chance to become the first 49ers quarterback to win the award. All he needs to do is continue to lead the offense, lead the team to victories, stay healthy, and put up the numbers. If he can do that, his MVP case will be very strong.
