Brock Purdy unbothered by Cam Newton ‘game manager’ comments
Brock Purdy is not big on labels.
Earlier this week, Cam Newton gave Purdy and a couple of other quarterbacks like Dak Prescott and Tua Tagovailoa the backhanded compliment of being a “game manager” and Purdy was asked about his thoughts on it
I dont know, Purdy said, as covered by PFT. I dont want to comment on that. Like I said, Im playing quarterback, trying to win games and well see at the end of all of it.
Purdy and Prescott are currently the two favorites in the betting odds for MVP, at +140 and +150, respectively, in the latest odds on FanDuel.
However one slices up the credit pie chart between Purdy, head coach Kyle Shanahan’s schematics and the offensive weapons including Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle and Brandon Aiyuk, Purdy’s statistics are impressive.

Cam Newton called quarterbacks Brock Purdy (49ers), Tua Tagovailoa (Dolphins), Jared Goff (Lions) and Dak Prescott (Cowboys) “game managers” and not “difference makers” for their respective teams in a recent episode of his “4th & 1” show on YouTube. YouTube/Cam NewtonPurdy leads NFL starting quarterbacks this season with 9.9 yards per pass attempt and his 25 passing touchdowns trails only Prescott’s 28.
He’s also completing over 70 percent of his passes, and the only starting quarterback with a higher completion percentage is Jake Browning, who has just three starts.
At 10-3, the Niners are tied with the Cowboys, Eagles and Ravens for the best record in the NFL.
While Newton said that Purdy, Prescott and Tagovailoa were “game managers” and “not difference makers”, he released a new video on Friday in which he insisted he was not intending those labels as insults in response to all the pundits who crushed him for the comments.
“Game manager is not a negative connotation,” Newton said, as covered by Bleacher Report.

— Cameron 1 Newton (@CameronNewton) December 15, 2023“‘Cam, what do you mean by game manager?’ My definition of that managing player is a player who has the ability to make the right play at the right time, protecting the football at all costs.
“ When I think about ultimate, elite game managersPeyton Manning, Drew Brees, Tom Brady. Game-changer and game manager is not something where I’m saying this person is not physically capable of making some great plays. I’m not saying that or I am not saying that they’re not good players.
“There’s really only three to potentially five game-changers in the NFL right now. Aaron Rodgers, Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, Patrick Mahomes.”
