SANTA CLARA — Brock Purdy was not his usual, accurate self in the 49ers' 24-21 NFC divisional playoff round win over the Green Bay Packers on Saturday at Levi's Stadium. After two quarters, the quarterback only had completed 10 of his 16 passes for 125 yards, including a 32-yard touchdown pass to tight end George Kittle. After the game, Purdy explained how the weather, and wearing a glove on his throwing hand, might have affected his accuracy. "Early on, obviously I put on the glove for the first drive," Purdy said. "It was coming down, and then it sprinkled, so I took it off. I was still trying to figure out what I wanted to do, and I was sort of fed up with the glove, so then I was just throwing the way I normally do." The rain continued off and on throughout the game which affected Purdy's performance, even after he figured out his glove situation. "There were some times when I was dropping back and the ball was wet from the grass and sort of affected some accuracy and stuff, but that's football," Purdy said. "I got to be better in that area." At the end of the night, Purdy completed 23 of his 39 attempts for 252 yards, one touchdown and an 86.7 passer rating. Was his trouble...
