49ers' Brock Purdy Hyped by Fans as NFL MVP Over Dak Prescott as Cowboys QB Struggles

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy made a Week 15 case as to why he is a betting favorite for league MVP.

Purdy passed for 242 yards and four touchdowns on 16-of-25 throwing against the Arizona Cardinals Sunday.

His performance helped lead the 49ers to a 45-29 victory as well as earn him top odds for the award.

The 49ers improve to 11-3 on the season and clinch the NFC West division title with the victory.

That win, alongside Dak Prescott's struggles during the Dallas Cowboys' simultaneous 31-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills, led fans to declare that Purdy has broken away in the race for MVP.
