Purdy's Return: Passable, Not Perfect

Summary

  • Brock Purdy returned effectively, completing all open throws for 200 yards and three TDs.
  • Jared Goff had a career-low completion percentage, struggling under pressure against Eagles.
  • James Cook's unique wheel route and Drew Dalman's strong offensive line play highlighted games.
Purdy's Return: Passable, Not Perfect

Brock Purdy returned to the 49ers' starting lineup after an injury, delivering a "passable" performance with 200 yards and three touchdowns. He completed all throws to open receivers and performed well against the blitz, though he missed some opportunities and showed limitations as a scrambler. This showing suggests he can help the 49ers reach a wild-card spot, but physical improvement and decision-making refinement are needed for a deeper playoff run.

The Detroit Lions experienced a stark contrast in offensive performance. After a strong showing in Week 10, they managed only nine points against the Eagles. While play-caller Dan Campbell is a new variable, the primary issue appears to be quarterback Jared Goff's poor game, marked by a career-low completion percentage and struggles under pressure.

Elsewhere, the Buffalo Bills showcased an impressive wheel route touchdown by James Cook, exploiting defensive hesitation with a unique release. The Chicago Bears' offense also saw a standout performance from center Drew Dalman, whose strong play on the offensive line facilitated a successful run game against the Vikings, proving his offseason investment was worthwhile.
