Despite the numbers, it wasn&#8217;t exactly a pretty game for the second-year quarterback. He missed a host of throws, particularly early in the contest, and never looked comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>It was surprising that he set a regular-season career high (332 in Wild Card Round), given the passes he missed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It definitely wasn&#8217;t his best game, but I think Brock played well, definitely wasn&#8217;t perfect, missed a couple throws, but he also made a couple plays that I didn&#8217;t think were there,&#8221; 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said. &#8220;So I was definitely happy with him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>          <span>            Related Links          <\/span>        <\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>              2023 NFL season, Week 3: What We Learned from 49ers&#x27; win over Giants on Thursday night            <\/li>\n<li>              YAC monster Deebo Samuel not &#x27;awful&#x27; in return to form during 49ers&#x27; Thursday night win            <\/li>\n<li>              NFL QB Index, Week 3: Sam Howell vaults into top 15; Joe Burrow, Jalen Hurts slip            <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Giants blitzed Purdy on 33 of his 39 dropbacks, per Next Gen Stats &#8212; the 84.6 percent is the highest in the NGS era. With Martindale getting his &#8220;teenager-playing-Madden tilt&#8221; on, Purdy quickly got rid of the ball, averaging the fastest time to throw of his career (2.34 seconds).<\/p>\n<p>Purdy finished 20-of-31 for 247 yards, two TDs and two sacks versus the blitz. Not too shabby, considering he was often forced to throw off one foot.<\/p>\n<p>Shanahan noted that facing a defensive coordinator like Martindale, especially on a short week, is a tall task for any quarterback.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, he missed a couple today and guys made a couple of real good catches also,&#8221; he said of Purdy. &#8220;I thought it was just a huge challenge. One of the biggest ones Brock&#8217;s been in just the short week to prepare for a scheme like that. Just how much they do, they had six guys on the line of scrimmage throughout the game, half the time they&#8217;re coming, half the time they&#8217;re not. There&#8217;s not a comfortable play throughout a game from a play call standpoint and from the quarterback just because there&#8217;s a lot of plays that don&#8217;t work versus that. So, you got to constantly be looking at it and sometimes they do, sometimes they don&#8217;t, which is a huge challenge for a quarterback. I thought he settled down throughout it as the game went and ended up playing good enough for us to win.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It helps to have playmakers like \ufeffDeebo Samuel\ufeff, \ufeffGeorge Kittle\ufeff and \ufeffChristian McCaffrey\ufeff, who can take short dump-offs to long gains. The 49ers generated 215 of their 310 passing yards after the catch Thursday night.<\/p>\n<p>After the win, Purdy was more focused on the plays he missed than the ones he made.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t really get wrapped up in the stats and stuff,&#8221; he said. &#8220;There&#8217;s some throws out there that I missed that could&#8217;ve obviously helped us get the lead earlier, quicker and faster. Those are the things that sort of are in my mouth that I have a bad taste from that I want to be better at. So watch the film, keep getting better and we just want to keep winning.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For the third straight week, the Niners put up exactly 30 points in a win. They became the third team in NFL history to start 3-0 with the same number of points scored in each game, per NFL Research, joining the 1936 Pittsburgh Pirates and the 2007 New England Patriots.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s why we tried to struggle in the red zone so we could keep 30 three weeks in a row,&#8221; Shanahan joked Thursday of the anomaly. &#8220;I didn&#8217;t even realize that until after, but I mean, it&#8217;s great to get 30 three weeks in a row but we felt like we left a lot out there too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Through three weeks, the Niners look the part of a looming NFC monster, running away with wins despite being just a tad off. If they tweak those issues and are healthy come January, look out.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/kyle-shanahan-brock-purdy-49ers-win-giants-definitely-wasnt-best-game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>San Francisco 49ers quarterback \ufeffBrock Purdy\ufeff threw for a regular-season career-high 310 yards in Thursday night&#8217;s 30-12 win over the New York Giants.
