00:00 We'll start to break down exactly what their props look like and you can see the spotlight

00:07 right there on the screen on the season 4,280 yards to 4,183 yards, 33 to 27 touchdowns,

00:16 14 to 11 interceptions, excuse me, 11 to 14 interceptions as they were going left to right

00:21 and then completion percentage 69.4% to 67.2% and Carver, the bigger stats went with the

00:32 bigger offense and that was Brock Purdy in this instance.

00:35 Yes, it rattles your cage a little bit to see that Mahomes didn't have the superior

00:39 statistical season but it's playoff time and what we saw from Purdy in Green Bay was concerning,

00:47 gloves on, gloves off in the rain and then after that we had him up against Detroit in

00:54 a game in which they were trailing but utilizing his legs, utilizing his ability to hit open

01:00 receivers, they came from behind, just stormed back.

01:03 Joe, that all happened within one segment where we're watching it during the game but

01:06 Carver, your confidence level of Purdy being able to handle everything in this game?

01:15 Not extremely high.

01:17 I'm obviously like you said, you could tell by who we're going with here, what we're on

01:21 and I think the Niners are obviously going to win this game but I don't think it's going

01:24 to be because of him and that's weird because he's the quarterback, he's supposed to be

01:27 the guy that runs the whole deal and the one thing that worries me about my selection is

01:31 him.

01:32 He's the thing that I think can kind of unravel because of what I saw in the Green Bay game

01:38 and what I saw in the Baltimore game.

01:40 Those are two games in the last month and a half that I look at and I go, "That could

01:45 happen today.

01:47 That could easily happen today and it's going to drive me nuts."

01:50 I don't have a lot of confidence.

01:51 Those numbers, you did like the blind resume, you know, you just put them up but you didn't

01:55 put the faces.

01:56 You would have thought that was Mahomes on the left and Purdy on the right but I am nervous,

02:01 Mike, about Purdy today.

02:02 I could see him being nervous in this spot.

02:05 I'm worried.

02:06 - Joe, he's passed the test to this point and I'm not one of the, I think there's, I

02:13 even hate using that phrase, Mr. Irrelevant.

02:16 I find it kind of oddly disrespectful to somebody that had a great college career and has found

02:21 himself and played his way into MVP contention but he hasn't played his sharpest game in

02:29 the playoffs and he's going up against now the defensive coordinator that more so than

02:35 anybody in the entire freaking league schemes it well against people, particularly in the

02:40 second half of games.

02:41 And Brock is going to, if they even have to add the lead, Brock is going to have to try

02:45 to close out this game in the same way that the Niners couldn't do four years ago.

02:50 I re-watched that game twice in these last couple of weeks.

02:53 Jimmy G was 18 of 21 with under eight minutes to go.

02:57 He closed two of 10 with an interception.
