In the 49ers' recent loss to the Arizona Cardinals, quarterback Brock Purdy's ability to scramble was both a blessing and a curse. Coach Kyle Shanahan pointed out that while Purdy’s scrambles can extend plays and keep drives alive, they can also disrupt the offense’s timing. This was seen in the game, where Purdy's scrambles led to crucial losses of yardage, such as a sack on a third-and-goal situation and another on a second-and-14. These mistakes pushed the team out of field goal range and may have changed the game's outcome. On the positive side, Purdy’s scrambles resulted in first downs and kept drives moving. However, the negative impacts, like the missed field goal opportunities, were hard to overcome. The game highlights the delicate balance of Purdy’s skillset—his scrambles can be great, but when they go wrong, they can also be costly.
