I think Purdy is suffering from a few things. First, he's lacking Deebo the last few weeks, getting him back makes that team better. Two, teams are getting the tape and putting it to use. He was a last day pick for a reason and teams are finding ways to exploit that. 3, concussions are no joke and he's probably playing through some fog still. Last, I think that elbow is still a problem. UCL can be fixed, but the timeline was accelerated and it's got to have a bit of a psychological effect as well. 

If the QB is stuggling then we can count on Kyle Shannahan to find ways around it, the defense needs to have a strong game if we're going to win. The flip side is that the offensive line has to keep Trevor upright like they did in Pittsburgh. San Fran know they have to keep it close and we can expect the dogs to be out for our guy.

Another major point here is that teams are actually capitalizing on his high turnover worthy plays.

"Now we're eight games into the season, and Purdy ranks 30th in turnover-worthy-play percentage, which means he's putting the ball in harm's way more than just about any other starter. Which is not good. But he always has done this -- defenses simply weren't capitalizing until now. That means he's not in a slump. The law of averages is catching up to him and so are defenses."
