The San Francisco 49ers are right where most people thought they would be this season.
They’re the reigning NFC Champions and will represent their conference in the Super Bowl, looking to hoist the Vince Lombardi trophy for the first time since 1994-95.
Needless to say, this team has had two of the best quarterbacks in NFL history, leading them to their five titles.
That’s perhaps why the bar has always been quite high for former Mr. Irrelevant Brock Purdy.
Nonetheless, superstar OT Trent Williams wanted to make it loud and clear that they wouldn’t have made it this far without their quarterback, telling Josina Anderson that he was the reason they were the No.1 seed.
“He’s the reason we are here. We’re not in the NFC Championship without Brock. We’re not going to the Super Bowl without Brock,” Williams said.

“He’s the reason we’re here. We’re not in the NFCCG without Brock. We’re not going to the Super Bowl w/o Brock. We’re not even the #1 seed w/o Brock…You can talk all you want…Wouldn’t rather go to war with anyone else.” pic.twitter.com/51nt0vG5i3

Purdy has overcome almost every single obstacle that has been thrown his way, and he’s done a lot of winning in his short time in the league.
Still, it seems like nothing he does is good enough to shut down the outside noise and criticism.
It seems like people will always hold his draft position and star teammates against him.
He never gets the credit when they win, but he gets all the blame when they don’t.
That’s why it’s so nice to see that his teammates have his back.
Like him or not, impressive or not, he’s a proven winner and has made it further than most of his colleagues already, and no one can take that away from him.
