Erin Andrews sat down with San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy this week for an in-depth interview.
Reactions to their chat were mixed, but not because of the substance of the chat. Rather, some NFL fans couldn’t help but notice that when Andrews interviews someone, they often struggle the subsequent weekend.
Every time #ErinAndrews does a pre-game interview with someone, they stink up the field. I wouldn’t want to talk to that lady 👀#NFCChampionship #NFLPlayoffs #BrockPurdy #SaquonBarkley #DakPrescott

“Erin Andrews has interviewed Saquon [Barkley] and Dak [Prescott] and both lost,” another fan replied. “Feeling pretty good about the [Philadelphia] Eagles’ chances now!”
A third person agreed.
“Great news for Philly, her last 1-on-1 with Dak sure sealed his fate,” he wrote.
Andrews posted the outtakes from the Purdy interview to her social media accounts and fans couldn’t help but notice her outfit choice.
“Erin Andrews, 1 of Gods Gifts,” one fan noted in regards to how good she looked.
Another fan replied with three hearts emojis.
Andrews’ outfit wasn’t the only one that caught people’s attention, though. Some fans couldn’t get enough of the shoes Purdy wore.

Big picture, Sunday’s showdown against Philly is undeniably the most important of Purdy’s life. He has never played in a more significant game.
To date Purdy has handled all the immense pressure he has been facing extremely well. He didn’t get rattled when his girlfriend’s wild photos went viral. He wasn’t shook when his sister’s provocative imagery spread online like wildfire.
May as well just put the Bengals in the Super Bowl now. https://t.co/gpfvvXvcpW

The kid is unflappable.
Purdy is going to need that poise and confidence in order to get his 49ers a championship trophy.
It is tough going from Mr. Irrelevant to Super Bowl MVP, but Purdy is certainly on his way to doing just that. Will he be able to finish the drill on Sunday and ensure another interview with Andrews before the biggest event in all of sports? An answer one way or the other should emerge soon enough.
