49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk: QB Brock Purdy plays with 'swag' that 'bleeds' to the rest of the offense

Brock Purdy continued the immaculate start to his career, moving to 6-0 as a regular-season starter with Sunday's blowout win in Pittsburgh. The San Francisco 49ers quarterback became the only signal-caller since at least 1950 to start 6-0 and throw multiple pass touchdowns in each of his first six career starts.

"He plays with an extreme poise, but also poise and urgency," Aiyuk said, via 49ers Web Zone. "It's like a mix of poise and urgency. He's never too lagged. He's just always on point. He's on point.

Purdy is keeping some good company in a historical sense with his rise from Mr. Irrelevant to a steady force for the reigning NFC West champs. His 117.5 passer rating is second highest among QBs in their first six stars in the Super Bowl era, behind only Kurt Warner (131.5) -- another "out of nowhere" quarterback.

"Purdy, he's done a great job since the moment he came in there and started his first start," Aiyuk said. "Even when he ended up taking over in that Miami game. I think trust is very big.

We can still continue to complete the ball, move the sticks, keep the offense flowing. And I think trust is the main thing with that.
