San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy was considered an MVP candidate all of three weeks ago. Now, he's being called a problem after three straight losses.
Three weeks ago, the San Francisco 49ers and their ascending star quarterback Brock Purdy looked unstoppable. Now, the team — and the quarterback — have crashed back down to Earth, opening up questions about what comes next. The 49ers lost their third straight game Sunday, this time a 31-17 defeat at the hands of the Cincinnati Bengals. Their seemingly unflappable young gunslinger threw two interceptions for the second straight game.
put that exact same statement in question form on “First Take” when Stephen A. Smith and Shannon Sharpe discussed Purdy on Monday morning. While Sharpe had previously gone biblical in his doubt of Purdy, this time he defended the quarterback, and it was Smith who was professing San Francisco does have a problem under center. He specifically cited the difference in Purdy’s stats with and without Deebo Samuel, who has missed the past two games with a shoulder injury.
