So with the whole "perfect passer rating" thing going for Purdy, I just looked up the formula for passer rating and it is legitimately the most insanely arbitrary sports formula I've ever seen.
Some of the worst late game clock management by the Rams I’ve seen. Kicked a FG with 23 seconds left on the play clock and threw an incompletion on 2nd down giving Seattle a free time out. Instead of giving the ball back with about 40 seconds left, they now have 1:31. We’ll see if it bites them in the ass
As Brandon Aiyuk was speaking to media in the 49ers locker room yesterday, George Odum walked by and shouted: "$20 million a year type of guy."

Trent Williams walked by next and upped the price: "$25."
Brock Purdy of the @49ers has a passer rating of 157.3 over his last 2 starts.

That's the highest passer rating by any NFL QB over a 2-start span since QB starts were first tracked in 1950. pic.twitter.com/XNpEVhyVg9
That draft class has a chance to be one of the all-time worst QB classes in NFL draft history. Lawrence is okay, Fields can run but sucks at basic QBing, and everyone else has pretty much wound up playing 3rd string.As Brock Purdy continues to cook, #2 pick Zack Wilson has been benched.
Brock Purdy is #1 in NFL QB efficiency by a huge margin playing behind a 49ers' offensive line that ranks #28 in pass-blocking grade. @benbbaldwin's graph shows just how much of an outlier Purdy is: pic.twitter.com/ipFsfNLRVW

Brandon Aiyuk on playing with Brock Purdy:

“I think that’s what the best QB - WR duos do, they help each other get better. Purdy’s for sure done that.
There will be plays out there that in the past we might call this play & you have no chance of getting the football, but when… pic.twitter.com/2t4XgajaEF
