After an impressive win over the Eagles, the 49ers have emerged as the Super Bowl favorite, but that is not all.
The San Francisco 49ers established themselves as the top dogs in the NFC with a convincing win over the Philadelphia Eagles.
San Francisco is 9-3 and looking like the best team in the NFL, winning its last four games by a combined 85 points — three of those wins against teams .500 or better.
Because of their good play behind Purdy, he is now putting his name in a prestigious conversation.
Brock Purdy was not a legitimate MVP candidate until he beat the Eagles 42-19 on Sunday, but now he is the favorite to do so.
Here are the favorites:

Lamar Jackson: +900
Patrick Mahomes: +900
Tyreek Hill: +1600
Christian McCaffrey: +1600
Purdy had another incredible game in the 49ers’ rout of the Eagles, finishing 19 of 27 for 314 yards with four touchdowns to zero interceptions and a 148.8 passer rating.
So far this season, he has completed 70.2% of his passes for 3,185 yards with 23 touchdowns to six interceptions and a 116.1 passer rating. He also leads the league in completion percentage, yards per attempt (9.6) and passer rating.
McCaffrey still is the focal point of the 49ers offense, but the team goes nowhere without dominant quarterback play.
