Super Bowl LVIII is set to feature one of the most intriguing quarterback matchups in recent memory. Kansas City Chiefs signal-caller Patrick Mahomes is a transcendent star and on his way to challenging Tom Brady as the best ever. Brock Purdy of the San Francisco 49ers is the 2022 Mr. Irrelevant and is battling just to be taken seriously.
Detractors will argue that Purdy is a game manager who simply takes advantage of Kyle Shanahan's offense and San Francisco's stellar collection of skill players. Of course, that is the job of a quarterback, and Purdy doesn't take offense to the "game manager" label.
