Brock Purdy vs Jordan Love: Who Should You Start?
If you are choosing between Brock Purdy and Jordan Love for your lineup, you are not alone. Brock Purdy finished the 2025 season at 20.8 PPG for the San Francisco 49ers (9 games), and Jordan Love averaged 16.1 for the Green Bay Packers (15 games).
That 4.7-point weekly advantage for Brock Purdy is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both lean on arm talent and offensive scheme as traditional pocket passers. Brock Purdy threw for 2167 yards and 20 touchdowns, while Jordan Love posted 3381 yards and 23 scores. Volume, red zone efficiency, and game script are the key week-to-week differentiators when neither carries rushing upside.
Brock Purdy has his bye in Week 9, and Jordan Love rests in Week 10. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at quarterback for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
