Brock Purdy, San Francisco 49ers: Methodical Drives

Purdy overcame arguably the roughest playoff performance of his career to pull off a comeback win over the vaunted Eagles defense. And he didn’t do it by being more accurate or more explosive.

Purdy did it by sticking with the game plan and moving down the field methodically. He only had two true offensive drives in the fourth quarter: One ended in his second interception, and the other ended in the game-winning touchdown.

Purdy pulled off the comeback by chipping away at the Eagles defense until the 49ers were in scoring position. His average air yards in the fourth quarter was 6.75, which ranked last among the wild-card round quarterbacks. Purdy’s longest passing attempt was 16 yards downfield to receiver DeMarcus Robinson.
