What happened: Dan Orlovsky puts Brock Purdy ahead of Jared Goff for best NFC quarterback so far. He credited Goff with great play this year while giving Purdy the top spot.

Why it matters: Early-season quarterback order shapes the NFC race and awards conversation. Goff's full 17-game 2025 workload set a high efficiency bar for Purdy to top.

By the numbers: In 2025, Goff completed 393 of 578 passes for 4,564 yards with 34 touchdowns and 8 interceptions in 17 games. Purdy completed 197 of 284 passes for 2,167 yards with 20 touchdowns and 10 interceptions in 9 games.

What to watch: Further October outings will test whether Purdy holds the edge over Goff.
