While some aren&#8217;t optimistic about the team&#8217;s chances, others are projecting a return to competitiveness, not to mention the playoffs.<\/p>\n<p>Niners quarterback Brock Purdy is also the subject of much debate, as many members of the national media claim he&#8217;s no better than average and merely a beneficiary of his environment. But one major publication is predicting that he will do so well this year that he will win a major individual award.<\/p>\n<p>The staff of The Athletic recently made\u00a0bold predictions\u00a0for each\u00a0NFL\u00a0team, and it predicted that Purdy will win the 2025 league MVP award.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The 49ers have the (healthy) star power, coaching, young defensive talent and easy schedule to bounce back from last year&#8217;s 6-11 record and make a playoff run,&#8221; wrote Vic Tafur. &#8220;Christian McCaffrey and George Kittle can&#8217;t win MVP, because one&#8217;s a running back and the other is a tight end. Purdy has the talent and narrative \u2014 going from Mr. Irrelevant to newly paid franchise QB, plus will get even more credit as the Niners are patching together their receiving corps to start the season.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more<\/strong>:\u00a049ers Prediction Bodes Well For Christian McCaffrey<\/p>\n<p>Purdy, in his first full season as San Francisco&#8217;s QB1, threw for 4,280 yards and 31 touchdowns while completing 69.4% of his passing attempts and leading the\u00a0NFL\u00a0in passer rating and QBR in 2023. That high level of play earned him his first Pro Bowl nod, and for a moment in time late in the schedule, he was a frontrunner for the MVP award.<\/p>\n<p>Tafur wrote that the addition of one man will help Purdy capture this year&#8217;s MVP honors.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh, and we almost forgot: The 49ers just signed Marquez Valdes-Scantling. Four of the last five\u00a0NFL\u00a0MVPs had MVS on their Week 1 roster:\u00a0Aaron Rodgers, Rodgers again, Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Valdes-Scantling joined the 49ers on Wednesday, just one day after the Seattle Seahawks waived him. He can be the type of deep threat they haven&#8217;t had during Kyle Shanahan&#8217;s tenure as their coach, and he could help stretch the field for Kittle, McCaffrey, Brandon Aiyuk, Jauan Jennings and others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more<\/strong>:\u00a0Marquez Valdes-Scantling Reveals Why He Chose 49ers Over Aaron Rodgers<\/p>\n<p>Purdy&#8217;s passing accuracy and touchdown percentage fell last year, and it is an open debate as far as whether that drop was due to the injuries his teammates had or because he was exposed.<\/p>\n<p>But as a reference point, Patrick Mahomes, the consensus best quarterback in football, has also seen his numbers dip over the last year or two as the Kansas City Chiefs have had their own problems with their offensive skill players. Mahomes&#8217; touchdown percentage in 2024 (4.5) was only marginally better than Purdy&#8217;s (4.4), and his 67.5% pass completion rate was only somewhat better than Purdy&#8217;s 65.9% passing accuracy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One analyst predicts that not only will 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy return to form this year, but that he will also have a season to remember.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":86369,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-86368","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>49ers&#039;
