"missing the absolute missile coming his way. The NFL tracks nearly everything on a football field there's seemingly a new stat every day but the league doesn't provide data on pass velocity. So, I'll have to guess, and I'm saying Purdy broke Mach 1 with this throw. For all the hand-wringing about his turf toe and his ability to push the ball downfield, he didn't just throw this pass; he might have broken the fabric of space-time with this absolute ripper."
"The Niners' 37-24 win over the Tennessee Titans wasn't a masterpiece. It was neither perfect nor problematic. It was simply enough. Again. And after four straight games of enough, the Niners have effectively sealed their place in the postseason. The NFL does track playoff probabilities, and the league put the 49ers' playoff odds at 98 percent with three weeks to play."
Brock Purdy delivered a picture-perfect, 37-yard strike to Ricky Pearsall on an improvisational play, hitting Pearsall in stride and setting up a first down. Purdy threw with surprising velocity despite concerns about turf toe and deep-throw ability. The 49ers beat the Tennessee Titans 37-24 in a game that was solid if unspectacular, maintaining a streak of 'enough' performances over four weeks. The win effectively sealed a postseason berth, with the NFL giving the 49ers a 98 percent playoff probability with three weeks remaining. The team has repeatedly overcome injuries and criticism through veteran cohesion and steady execution.
