Many analysts have raised considerable questions about the young player. This comes especially as the San Francisco 49ers stand at 5-3, even though they had an explosive start with five straight wins in the season.

Warner’s support has created space for his growth. However, it is also noteworthy that Purdy has plummeted from the top in MVP odds to ninth place within the last three weeks.

Purdy even garnered support from NFL veteran turned analyst, Richard Sherman, who made it clear that the responsibility for those defeats was not on just the QB. He gave detailed feedback on Brock Purdy’s performance after the latest loss. In his latest appearance at the ‘Undisputed’, Sherman pointed out that a few key factors contributed to the Niners’ loss, including a weak defense.

“Well it comes down to a number of things. Obviously the Defense hasn’t played well enough under Steve Wilks,” added Sherman.

“I think Brock Purdy needs to learn from this. He needs to learn when to eat the ball and when to try to make these passes. But I think everything is correctable,” said Sherman giving hope to Purdy’s improvement.
