Brock Purdy is Breaking the MVP debate.

football is all about context the best quarterback in the league can be dragged down by a bad scheme bad receivers bad protection and his play can suffer and then on the flip side all of that can cut the other way too how actually good is a mediocre quarterback when the talent and schemes surrounding him are Elite how do we evaluate quarterback play independent of his offensive circumstances this is the Crux of the great debate for Brock pie which is why it's so incredibly hard for people to acknowledge he's the league MVP he should be a shoe in with the highest yards per attempts it's the greatest show on turf at 9.9 but people argue he's a product of his surroundings and thus Lee unworthy today we'll dive into why he point blank full stop is the MVP and what he brings to the 49ers offense that shows that he is vital to the offense when studying his film trying to isolate how good he is from how good his team and scheme are it boils down to three categories his his ability to avoid taking sacks his ability to dominate under pressure and his ability to make plays even when there is nothing there the 49ers are one of the most efficient offenses of the last few decades they lead the league with 2.77 points per drive and we all know sacking the quarterback destroys the likelihood of a given offense scoring on a given drive but we don't know exactly how much until now according to an article by pff's teimo risque and Sam mson every Drive regardless of team has a 60% chance of getting at least one first down well that plummets all the way down to 20% when there's a sack one of P's greatest strengths that has nothing to do with the 49ers scheme and team is his ability to avoid sacks when pressured in fact he's amongst the very best in the league he gets sacked on just 15.4% of the snaps he's pressured and usually after he gets out of trouble he's creating an explosive play down the field here the Seahawks have the perfect coverage to stop the 49ers concept the ners are running a clear out rounde to create room for this deep dig and they also have a checkdown with Christian mcaffrey so the Seahawks run quarter quarter half to take care of the clearout route but have the ability to pass off that clear out route with one of their quarter safties have both of them overlap each other to take care of both routes and then their linebackers can take care of CMC underneath P's just reading auk to maccaffrey one to two pretty easy but when both are covered up due to the adaptable Seahawks C coverage and also when his right tackle Colton mckivitz gets his ass kicked late in the down and there's a pass rusher falling into P's lap he still never panics he's one of the best in the league outside the pocket and can throw well on the Run look at how the moment Julian love turns his back and pretty releases auk isn't even at all open but he still drops a 40 yard dime deep down the field he can also avoid sacks by getting rid of the ball with anticipation where he's throwing to his receiver before he's open the the offensive line certainly isn't any good besides Trent Williams which forces him to have one of the quickest times to throw in the league despite being top 10 in average air yards per attempt so he's throwing deep down the field really early in the down against man coverage the 49ers run one of their favorite Concepts in dagger which has Debo hold the one high safety to keep him occupied so Brandon IOU can cut in behind him this has to come out on time with Levante David sitting in his Zone over the middle however auk releases outside the cornerback which makes his route take longer to develop and more challenging to win on now he has to beat Carlton Davis far enough up the field so that he can create room back inside and underneath and this makes it really hard on Brock why well yeah lante David like I said but he also has v vea matched one-onone on his back ight guard Jonathan Feliciano and yeah that goes about as well as Antonio Brown doing cryotherapy this forces prie to throw extremely extremely early to iuk before he's even open and instead of a sevenard drive killing sack we have a 50 yard explosive play down the field the second area his skills have really elevated the offense is his ability to win Under Pressure so not only is he able to avoid sacks Under Pressure he's also able to dominate with the heat coming head on but before we dive deeper into that I want to thank this week's sponsor prize pick prize picks is a daily fantasy sports site where you can pick players every day they've got all

easy to win big if you want to give it a shot use my promo code Rollins and they'll match your first deposit up to $100 that's promo code Rollins most quote unquote system quarterbacks can execute the system but then welt Under Pressure well pry has an average yards per attempt under pressure of 8.2 which is literally the best in the league he's able to tear defenses up by extending the play after pressure like we saw but he's also able to do it from inside the pocket he's pressured the 13th most in the league at 39% so teams are beating up the 49ers offensive line pretty consistently but Brock still wins over and over take this example on Third and 11 where Arizona has seven on the line showing an allout pressure and check out what happens when they get the runner off the edge but he still dices them up he knows this Tampa two Zone coverage as the middle runr Defender opening to the three receiver strong side as opposed to the KD side week but with the disguise Arizona is putting on this thing look at how quickly he has to process all this information and still makes an impressive anticipatory throw no matter the heat defenses are bringing he's still going to hang in the pocket and rip you or break a tackle and throw in the run so despite the fact defenses are blitzing him the most in the league at 41.1% he's still dealing at a 10.1 yards per attempt when teams bring extra rushers so every time you Blitz him he's throwing for more than a first down which is insane the last area that shows he deserves the MVP is his ability to still create when the scheme and team's abilities are neutralized there are plenty of times on film where they haven't created easy throws for him at all but he still succeeds they're still rocking with their diverse sail package where sail consists of three different receivers overloading one side of the field with a deep route and an intermediate and an underneath one when he sees that nobody is open he extends the play with his legs to get a first de down and keeps the offense on schedule then on the very next play the Buccaneers adjust and have somebody sit for the boot but that opens up KD so pry calmly just readjusts with pressure in his face and hits him for the open first down you can see him use his eyes to fake out Jaa Barrett to create that open Lane outside and this is just another example of him doing the little things to create big things sure there are plenty of examples of him hitting wide openen receivers and obviously that helps boost his stats without a doubt but when media members and do heads make this a black or white argument saying he doesn't deserve the award it ignores all the things that he's actually really good at on another iteration of sale with KD to the corner and auk underneath watch how the threat of P's legs affects the defense when he half rolls towards his left the defense has to respect it he can throw rolling to both his right or left run to his right or left but then he flips around and throws an absolute seed to auk this is impressive for a few reasons one KD is running off the coverage to the corner but the cornerback doesn't respect him so he falls off and sits in zone coverage to defend auk's route and two watch Jordan Brooks because prie fakes to his left Brooks Honors that and look at this throw the timing the pacing it's in front of Brooks on time enough but also not lofted with too much time in the air to where Michael Jackson can make a play on the ball it's this consistent ability to hit over the middle in Breakers that keeps the 49ers lethal that's maybe why people want to just comp pie to garoo and write him off as just the next Shanahan quarterback when in reality perie is still able to do what Jimmy did while opening everything else up he can throw outside the numbers he can throw deep ISO balls to keep defenses honest he can use his legs to squirt free from a wouldbe sack he can hang in the pocket Under Pressure use his legs when he needs to to pick up a first down when teams aren't paying attention he is the ultimate skeleton key for this offense and he's the perfect quarterback to operate this offense which is why it's been producing at a historic rate yes 100% he has the most advantageous situation of any other quarterback in the league five or six All Pro Caliber players on offense and the best scheme in the NFL but the idea you can just plug anybody into this offense is simply not true could a lot of other starting quarterbacks operate this offense at a high level sure but this year the 49ers quarterback is named Brock pie and his name will be in the record book Penning the ink of one of the best offenses we've ever seen the MVP is a Quarterback Award plain and simple it's no secret if it wasn't yes a thousand times over give it to CMC or Tyreek but as we've seen before for years on end it's going to a quarterback and nobody is playing absolutely out of their minds quite like Mr Irrelevant between his ability to avoid sacks to keep them humming his skill at dealing Under Pressure his ability to win on dead plays in the overall steadiness of his game he really doesn't have a single weakness the 49ers are set the playoffs are near pie will take home the MVP and they are about to win Kyle Shanahan's first Super [Music] Bowl the my
