Christian McCaffrey is the 23-year-old QB Brock Purdy’s MVP pick. Currently, RB Christian McCaffrey is having the best season of his life. He has already secured 13 TDs and is leading the charts with 1,292 rushing yards, gaining huge dominance over others. His control is evident enough through the difference between him and the second spot holder, James Cook at 968 yards.

Besides the RB, even his team, the 49ers have stamped authority in the NFC division by securing their eleventh victory. They have defeated the Cardinals 45-29 in the week 15 clash. Purdy’s exceptional performance has virtually grabbed his team a spot in the playoffs. He scored four TDs without a single interception and made sure he still has the best completion rate in this season. QB Brock Purdy has become a sure-shot contender for the MVP himself, but the humble guy has named CMC as his pick.

Brock Purdy appreciates CMC!

In the post-match presser, a reporter acknowledged McCaffrey’s staggering rise and pointed out his reasons in front of Purdy, “So much has been said about Christian, I know you run out of stuff but when it comes to his play through oblique and just as much as he touches the ball, punishment he takes.” 

Ari Meirov shared Purdy’s reply by posting the clip on X. He highlighted Purdy’s comment, “Dude, I think Christian should be MVP.” QB Purdy was quick to admit that he can only throw the ball but after that, CMC is the one to create the magic on the gridiron.

In the shared clip Purdy mentioned the reasons, “He does everything for us, runs the ball well can catch the ball, he does everything and so in my eyes, that’s an MVP”. He further appreciated the RB’s physical capabilities.

He was quick to notice that CMC had taken up the beating for the team as he kept on bouncing and twisting off opponents. He appreciated CMC further by highlighting the continuous work done to drive his legs and “get extra yards and inches.” Do you think the RB is an MVP contender?

CMC: a legend in the making!

Only eighteen RBs have made it to the MVP list since the inception of the NFL. Eleven years have passed since an RB became an MVP. What started with Jim Brown in 1957 was last carried forth by Minnesota Vikings’ Adrian Peterson in 2012.
