Brock Purdy leads the 2026 NFL passing touchdowns race with 14 scores through six games, tied with Kirk Cousins and Trevor Lawrence while posting elite efficiency at 69.6% completion and a 118.1 passer rating for the undefeated 49ers. Jared Goff sits at 12 touchdowns in five outings with zero interceptions, reflecting Detroit’s high-volume scheme. Recent form favors Purdy’s rhythm in play-action and red-zone opportunities amid San Francisco’s offensive line stability and receiver additions, while volume passers like Cousins and Lawrence benefit from aggressive aerial attacks. Trader consensus reflects these early differentials in touchdowns, efficiency, and supporting cast health, with the field remaining open given the 11-game remainder and typical variance in quarterback production.
