“That was an a*s kicking”- Joy Taylor praises Brock Purdy for his dominant outing against Tom Brady

Brock Purdy shocked everyone and came out all guns blazing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 14. He led the San Francisco 49ers to a 35-7 win over the Bucs.

Everyone was impressed by Purdy's performance. He stepped in to replace Jimmy Garoppolo. Joy Taylor was quite delighted with how Purdy performed and claimed that people are not giving him much credit for what he did against Tom Brady.

Brock Purdy: 134.0 passer rating in Week 14

Highest among all QBs 👀 https://t.co/ZGm5rKlOHc

Here's what Joy Taylor said about Brock Purdy's performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers:

"I mean, congrats to Brock Purdy. That was bleeping impressive. I don't know if we're actually giving Brock Purdy as much credit as we need to. We were of tripping over ourselves to praise Baker Mayfield for what happened on Thursday night, which was impressive."

She continued:

"But this is a rookie quarterback, the last pick in the draft. But like, are we contextualizing this enough properly? That was an a*s-kicking. And they prepared for him."

Joy Taylor added:

"He was so impressive. He was so decisive. He was moving around in the pocket making plays fully confident. I mean, yes, everything around him is great."

In the game against the Buccaneers, Purdy completed 16/21 of his throws for 185 yards and two touchdowns. He rushed in for a touchdown as well and had an exceptional passer rating of 134.

Although the Bucs were missing many key players in their defensive unit, it was still a great performance by "Mr. Irrelevant". He didn't let the San Francisco 49ers miss Jimmy Garoppolo, and that's a great achievement.

It's always an awesome moment to meet up with the 🐐 postgame...

What's next for Brock Purdy and the 49ers?

Jimmy Garoppolo, broke his foot in the game against the Miami Dolphins, is expected to return this season in the playoffs. He is unlikely to be available for the Wildcard Round but could feature in the Divisional Round.

The 49ers still have enough talent on the team to reach the Divisional Round, but Purdy needs to be at his best. However, if Purdy continues to play as he did against the Buccaneers, it is possible that Kyle Shanahan will continue with him even when Jimmy G is back.

Sources: Doctors concluded today that 49ers' QB Jimmy Garoppolo does not need foot surgery, it is not a Lisfranc injury, and if rehab goes smoothly, he could have a chance to return in 7-8 weeks, making him a potential playoff contributor. https://t.co/beYu1Pa9KU

Jimmy Garoppolo stepped in to replace Trey Lance and played well, similar to what Purdy is doing now. The 49ers' quarterback room is stacked with talent, but they can't deal with any more injuries. Hopefully, they will avoid any injuries to key players in the remaining fixtures.
