Purdy's 'Excellent Form' Fuels 49ers' No. 1 Seed Bid & Playoff Hopes

San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy continues his 'excellent form,' leading the team to a 42-38 win over the Bears with 303 passing yards, 3 TDs, and 2 rushing TDs. Coach Kyle Shanahan praised his play as 'as good as it gets right now,' despite Purdy missing eight games with a right big toe injury. He ranks 4th in passer rating (104.2) and 2nd in passing TDs per game (2.5) among playoff QBs, showcasing confidence and late-game execution. Purdy is also noted as 'rising' in QB hierarchies as the 49ers aim for the No. 1 seed against the Seahawks.
