“Super Bowl Showdown: How Purdy and Mahomes are Revolutionizing Their Game for the Epic Rematch!”
Patrick Mahomes became an NFL star mainly because of his ability to throw deep passes and create big plays for the Kansas City Chiefs with his strong arm.
In contrast, Brock Purdy found early success as a professional quarterback by getting rid of the ball quickly and allowing the San Francisco 49ers’ playmakers to do the hard work.
As they prepare for their Super Bowl rematch on Sunday, with the Chiefs (5-0) facing the 49ers (3-3), both quarterbacks have changed their styles. Mahomes is now focusing more on short passes, while Purdy is the one making longer throws.
According to NFL NextGen stats, Purdy’s average pass this season has traveled twice as far beyond the line of scrimmage as Mahomes’. Purdy also has the lowest percentage of yards gained after the catch (32.8%), while Mahomes has the highest (66.7%).
I think everyone says down year just because their numbers aren’t just crazy, but Pat is as good as it gets,” 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said. “He’s been as good as it gets since the first year that he got to play.”
The 49ers have seen Mahomes’ skills up close during two of his three Super Bowl victories. He came back from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter to win after the 2019 season and led four consecutive scoring drives to secure a 25-22 overtime win last season.
The 49ers understand how dangerous Mahomes can be when he throws deep, quickly passes to Travis Kelce, or extends plays with his mobility
“He’s able to throw the ball long distances quickly, so you don’t need a lot of space,” defensive end Nick Bosa said. “Plus, he creates plays well. He likes to fake out defenders and can run for first downs when necessary. His running ability is somewhat underrated.”
The Chiefs were very impressed with Purdy after facing him in the Super Bowl when he nearly led his team to victory. His performance this season has only strengthened that impression.
“I can’t find any weakness in this quarterback,” Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo said. “Every time I watch the film, I’m more and more impressed
