From the article

Purdy was near-perfect in the 49ers' 35-13 rout of the rebuilding Dolphins, rewriting several pages of the record books in going 20 of 22 for 287 yards and two touchdowns. Purdy also led the 49ers in rushing with 30 yards and a rushing score. Those numbers saw Purdy become the first player in NFL history to complete at least 90 percent of his passes, throw for at least 285 yards and two touchdowns and rush for a score in the same game.

Purdy sets historic efficiency marks; Williams says his prime is coming.

Purdy's 20-of-22, 287-yard, 2-TD, 30-rushing-yard performance against Miami made him the first player in NFL history to complete at least 90% of passes, throw for at least 285 yards and 2 TDs, and rush for a score in the same game; his 90.9% completion rate ranks second in 49ers franchise history (behind his own 95.2% in 2023 vs Arizona); his 149.1 passer rating gave him an eighth career game with a 140+ rating and 13th with 130+, both NFL records for a player in his first five seasons. Trent Williams stated Purdy is 'starting to witness Brock's prime' and predicted 'it's going to be a sight to behold,' suggesting even more impressive performances ahead.
