No. 5: 4th quarter, 13:26 to go, 45 yards to Jauan Jennings

Jennings once against features on the final impressive throw from Purdy, who dropped this ball into a bucket deep down the field against good coverage by Patriots defensive back Marcus Jones.

While not as impressive a catch as the one he made over a Rams defender last week, this is a good grab from Jennings with perfect ball placement from his quarterback.

In terms of pure throws, this is probably the most impressive from Purdy on the day. And it just missed going down as an even longer touchdown throw, as Jones managed to trip Jennings up before the receiver broke free into the open field.

All told, Purdy finished the game 15-of-27 for 288 yards, one touchdown, and one poorly judged interception, along with 5 carries for 11 yards to help lead his team to victory.

One thing is for sure, these throws, along with his overall play against a good Patriots defense, continue to prove that Purdy is among the NFL's best quarterbacks right now.
