Brock Purdy joins 49ers legends with this impressive statistic

In a stunning display of precision, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy engineered a near-flawless Sunday outing against the Arizona Cardinals. The second-year player completed 20 of his 21 pass attempts for 283 yards and a touchdown, helping lift the 49ers to a 35-16 victory and a 4-0 record.
The only pass that eluded the grasp of his target was one intended for running back Christian McCaffrey.
"His one incompletion, he threw to me, so that's on me," McCaffrey said after the game. "We'll have to check the tape. It could have been my fault. We'll see."
Purdy's 95.2 completion percentage set a new record in franchise history. The 23-year-old's 21 consecutive completions (going back to Week 3 vs. the Giants) have solidified his place in 49ers

Nick Bosa: "My body's fully adapted to football now" after 49ers' TNF win over Giants

The San Francisco 49ers defeated the New York Giants in a Thursday Night Football matchup during Week 3, notching a 30-12 victory in their home opener to improve to 3-0.

Despite the short week, the 49ers earned major contributions from defensive end Nick Bosa, who recorded a sack and six pressures in only 39 snaps due to the Giants' lack of offensive plays.
Bosa's health has been an underrated factor through three weeks, as the defensive end was acclimated heavily in Week 2, playing 63 defensive snaps, which was a significant uptick from Week

49ers teammates on underrated Brock Purdy: He's doing everything needed to win football games

Second-year quarterback Brock Purdy continues to help the San Francisco 49ers rack up wins. While he has yet to lose a regular-season game in his pro career, there are still those who doubt the 23-year-old, saying that he is a product of a quarterback-friendly system or looks better than he is because of the plethora of playmakers around him.
On Thursday, one of Purdy's teammates was asked about the debate surrounding the quarterback's legitimacy.
"All Brock's done is gone out there and win," tight end George Kittle responded. "He does a great job with that. You can watch the tape from this last game against the Giants when he was pressured, like, 31 or however many snaps that was, and he

49ers WR Deebo Samuel's status appears to be trending up ahead of Week 4

The San Francisco 49ers announced their weekly practice squad elevations, sharing that wide receiver Willie Snead and cornerback Kendall Sheffield will be called up to the active roster for their Week 4 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
With the announcement that Snead would be called up, one may assume that 49ers wideout Deebo Samuel's status would be trending down, as the 49ers expect to add another wideout to the active roster for Week 4.
However, it's actually the opposite.
Looking at the injury report, the 49ers aren't at risk of just missing Samuel, but
