What They AREN'T Telling You About Brock Purdy...

how do you go from this so the 47th Mr Irrelevant the San Francisco 49ers select Brock pie a quarterback from Iowa State to just in two years this and there it is the 49ers are going to the Super Bowl and yet still doesn't get the respect he deserves did Brock pie put all the criticism to bed with yesterday's performance no he's going to have to do it in the Super Bowl have to do it in Super Bowl let's find out [Music] born on December 27th 1999 in Queen Creek Arizona Brock knew from an early age what he wanted to do in life he grew up surrounded by sports with his father's background as a professional baseball player as a young athlete py had the option to follow his Father's Footsteps however despite the initial inclination towards baseball P's fascination with football took roote around the age of five sparked by watching Tim TV and the Florida Gators and his dad's personal favorite Dan Marino so for pie it was no question he was a quarterback he would learned to throw a football from his dad and would adopt Marino's quick release Brock would even choose the iconic number 13 for his jersey as a symbolic not to the quarterback he aimed to be he would go on and play high school ball for Perry High School where he set several State records and led his team to two state championship games he was known throughout campus for being a great person I mean we're talking cafeteria workers um custodians security guards they all knew Brock and they all love Brock because of what he did despite his impressive stats and being a three star recruit he wasn't heavily recruited by major college programs having only received offers from a few schools one being Iowa State where he decided to enroll for the next four years of my career I'll be continuing my academic and athletic career at Iowa State University at Iowa State party qu quickly established himself as the starting quarterback and one of the best players in the Big 12 Conference he would end his collegiate career with the most wins of any quarterback in Iowa State history leading the program to a 37 record and its first quarterback to take the Cyclones to four straight bow games however P's College Success did not translate into a high draft stock he was widely considered as a late round Prospect with questions about his size arm strength and level of competition ultimately the 2022 NFL draft would come and we kind of all know what happens next so the 47th Mr Irrelevant the San Francisco 49ers select Brock perie a quarterback from Iowa State hey buddy this is John Lynch from the 49ers yes sir how you doing I'm sorry it took till the end uh we find you very relevant but you are going to be Mr Irrelevant yes sir all right man so we're thrilled to have you part of us okay and yeah Mr Irrelevant for those of you who don't really know what that means it's the title given to the very last player selected in the NFL draft just for some context most players drafted with the very last draft pick don't really go on to complete stored or notable careers often a player chosen with this pick is released from the team that drafted them before preseason or training camp even begins so it was safe to say that Brock's NFL career was going to be very much an uphill battle fortunately Brock would make the 53-man roster his rookie season and become the Third first string quarterback behind then starter Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo that is until week 13 play clock down to two they get it off garoo in trouble and he is set at thing Doom from the start Jerome Baker on the blitz gets home and it's fourth down yeah I got worst news Jimmy Garoppo's on the cart headed for the locker room right in front of you there wow Jimmy is being carded off the field so now it'll be Brock cie the last pick of the draft number three with Debo next to him and auk he's going to throw out right wide open Kyle yek touchdown San Francisco Mr relevant hits Kyle y with a touchdown Brock played well and finished the game completing 25 of 37 passes for 210 yards and one interception in the 3317 win and will become the first mystery relevant to throw a touchdown pass in a regular season game following garoppolo's injury Brock would be named the 49er starting quarterback for the remainder of that 2022 season and the rest is history C back to throw pressure coming steps away looking to run and he walks it in for the touchdown blit coming pie lofting going deep has maccaffrey he's got it touchdown San Francisco they're chanting pry by the way Brock P chance in Santa CLA feel like I'm in a scene of Rudy Brock would have continued to play well and help the 49ers clinch the NFC West Division title and secure the second seed in the NFC playoff the 49ers have won seven in a row and they get to 10 and four on the year you know everyone battled in here I know how physical and how much we hurting last Sunday I know how hard it was for you guys to get to hear and to play like that all right the guys who went down in the game came in but also we got to give up to our quarterback man [Applause] in the Wild Card round py faced the Seattle Seahawks led by veteran quarterback Gino Smith Brock would become the first 49ers rookie quarterback to start and win a playoff game while putting him 6-0 in career starts in the game he completed 18 of 30 passes for 332 yards and scored four total touchdowns the most by a rookie quarterback in a playoff game he also became the lowest drafted quarterback to start and win a playoff game and became the first rookie quarterback since Sami ball in 1937 to have at least 200 pass yards and two pass scores and the playoff win making him the first rookie quarterback to do so since the AFL NFL merger next was Dallas man is this going to be fun stars all over the field we start with the 49ers Greg the're redot they've won 11 in a row the last six have been with rookie quarterback Brock py the crazy thing is since he's played they're better with him on offense the reality here in San Francisco the 49ers are not winning in spite of Brock pie oftentimes they're winning because of Brock P maccaffrey right up the G an in touchdown San Francisco final play it looks like baring a penalty Prescott over the middle of the turet gets smoked right away and that'll do it the 49ers back to the championship game with the victory over the Cowboys party became the third quarter qub back since 1970 to win two playoff games in his rookie season although throwing no touchdowns in the game pry completed 19 of 29 passes for 214 yards which also made him the first rookie quarterback since 1970 to throw for over 200 yards in consecutive NFL postseason games however things would take a turn in the NFC championship game against the out effect pressure coming P deck floating in the air is is it picked no hit the ground during the first quarter Brock suffered an injury to his right elbow pery would re-enter the game though he would only throw two more passes the 49ers would go on to lose 31 to7 py would later be diagnosed with complete tear in his UCL which rendered him unable to throw the ball more than 10 yards The Season's been over for 24 hours and it's already time to ask who's going to be the starting quarterback next season p is expected to undergo surgery that'll determine his timeline to return six months would mean pie would miss the entire offseason program would clear him in August just after training camp begins it would also open the door for Trey Lance to reclaim the starting job one problem Lance is still rehabbing from a broken ankle or they could look to bring someone in from the outside a dark horse like maybe a certain seven time Super Bowl champ from San Mato who will be a free agent but then the question becomes what do you do with Brock pie he destroyed Tom Brady last year is Trey not going to dress you have a lot of moving parts right now with the 49ers quarterback situation so should be an entertaining offseason in that regard after a successful recovery from injury py will be named the starting quarterback for the upcoming season beating out former starter Trey Lance and Sam darnold having a year down under Shanahan system Brock and the 49ers will continue their dominance of the NFC all the way back to the top pery completed the regular season leading the league in passer rating total quarterback rating and yards gain per attempt with the Buy in the first round of the playoffs the ners will play a hot Jordan love and Green Bay Packers head coach Kyle Shanahan told us we have a thousand scars continue to do what we've done all year long I have a good feeling where we'll end up Brock would struggle with his accuracy in the Rainy conditions as the 49ers trailed entering the fourth quarter despite his struggles py engineered a 12pl 69 yard drive that culminated with Christian mcaffry scoring a go-ahead touchdown with under two minutes left as the 49ers won 24 P inside the 10 and Diving near the six they're going to put him down at the five and right near a first down up maccaffrey maccaffrey scores 49ers in front love pressure up the middle runs away throws across his body and that is picked 49ers have it green law still up he needs to get down greena still on his feet he's got to go down just go down and the game's over San Francisco takes over in the NFC Championship Game py faced the Detroit Lions py had another Stellar performance storing for 332 yards and four touchdowns with one interception and there it is the 49ers are going to the Super Bowl P's remarkable rise from obscurity to stardom has drawn comparisons to another quarterback who was drafted in the six round and became a Super Bowl champion Brady who retired after the 2022 season is widely regarded as the greatest quarterback of all time he won seven Super Bowls five Super Bowl MVPs three NFL MVPs and numerous other accolades he also holds the NFL records for most career passing yards touchdowns and wins herie and Brady have similarities in their stories both were overlooked coming out of college both had to wait for the opportunity to start and both proved their doubs wrong with their clutch performance and Leadership skills however Brock has a long way to go before he can match Tom's Legacy but he's already made history as the first Mr Irrelevant start in a Super Bowl as he set to face the Kansas City Chiefs led by Patrick Mahomes the reigning Super Bowl MVP and the best quarterback in the league today Brock will have to overcome the odds once again but regardless of the outcome I think Mr Irrelevant is a lot more relevant than ever before
