00:00Background and obviously the weather will be a little bit better. I'm fired up for this one. Let's go bring on the Jets
00:05Yeah, no, it's gonna be a lot of fun
00:07We'll break this game down at nauseam here what diners need to do to to really move the ball against his New York Jets defense
00:13Maybe there's some weaknesses. Maybe you could run right at them
00:16But obviously an injury concern to recursive McCaffrey who's questionable due to the calf slash Achilles injury the Achilles injury popped up late last week
00:24On the injury report kind of shocked us all there
00:27So we'll be monitoring Chris McCaffrey and where he's had obviously got to replace Drake Greenlaw
00:32So it's gonna be a lot of Devontree Campbell D winners is also out which is surprising to me
00:37He's hurt. He's banged up in Talladega. Funga is doubtful for today
00:41So it's gonna be Malik Mustafa is gonna be obviously Tig Brown Jair Brown. He's gonna play a lot
00:47And of course Joe Zeldin who had a big-time training camp, but we got to sit back and watch all the pride type games
00:52You know starting with Kansas City of Baltimore which came down to a toe the end of the game
00:58Then Friday you go to Brazil and you get Philadelphia in Green Bay
01:02I remember he said, you know, you're excited about the quarterbacks and the quarterbacks were up and down in that game
01:06I was excited about how to run the backs were fair and you know
01:09What the Philadelphia Eagles made their CMC type of move?
01:12They had their Christian McCaffrey and say Quan Barkley and I was a reminder of how good say Quan Barkley is and he's a difference-maker
01:19We look at prime time yesterday with the Detroit Lions the LA Rams Rams already dealing with injuries
01:25Look at the cool who the hell knows how long he's gonna be out Cooper Cup is still fascinating
01:29But their offensive line is bagged up
01:30Their receivers bagged up and you look on the other side with Detroit if Jamie Sue Williams could take that next step
01:36Alongside I'm RSA Brown Sam Laporta that great do I at running backs all of a sudden you got something there with Detroit
01:42So now it's the Niners turn to show that hey, we're still the class of the NFC
01:46The NSU still runs through the Bay Area and have a great great great chance to do that tonight
01:52Let the bygones be bygones all the noise that we dealt with over July and August and all all season
01:58It's go time folks
02:00It's time for Brock Purdy to really catapult himself to another category here and build off what he did last year
02:06Which is to truly historic for the 49ers seeing you kind of like rat-a-tat-tat some of the teams that we think are
02:12You know the the foes of the 49ers. It's a long season
02:15Things change dramatically
02:17Injuries are obviously a huge part of it and where a team's at and what their flaws are today may not be what their flaws
02:23Are you know week 12 week 17 or whatever?
02:27That being said it does feel like Cowboys
02:30Eagles
02:32I'm gonna still put the Packers in the mix. Obviously, I need to get their quarterback back
02:36I'll put them a little like a slight tier below and then obviously the Detroit Lions and the LA Rams
02:42But the Rams are interesting case study because I think they'll be better come year end
02:47They have a lot of young players on defense, but it's that we're gonna be able to make it that far
02:51Yeah, I mean he got hit a lot in that game
02:53He was under duress the entire way and then I guess the other question with the Rams
02:58Seeing that they couldn't stop the run at the end of that game and I've thrown this at you and this is something
03:04I think we should just we should just monitor it
03:06Are we sure Aaron Donald's not gonna come out of retirement and come join that team?
03:10November and December because it sure looked like in overtime
03:13They missed a Hall of Fame defensive tackle to just stick in the middle of that defense
03:17They got they got a little gash there and overtime obviously, and they showed the video
03:21I don't was it during the game or after the game?
03:23I don't recall but they showed Aaron Donald's wife posting Garrett Donald watching the game and he was knocked out sleep
03:29He was sleep during the game and Chris Collins works. Well, I do that to the best of my put everybody to sleep
03:34So that was Chris Collins right there who seemingly didn't know the overtime rules
03:39He's talking about positioning the ball for the field goal by Tariq. I'll try to give it a hit like hey
03:43I touched out wins the game touch that wins the game. So Chris Collin worse was you know, Chris Collins were fancy
03:51But you know what
03:54Team you a minute a team you a minute
03:57We're going on our training camp toward your body. Who's the most oppressive team in training camp so far
04:03You've been to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
04:05We need to monitor we need to monitor them because I think people forget about Tampa Bay
04:10They were a drive away from possibly going to the NFC championship game last season
04:14But they played the 49ers in Levi's Stadium
04:17That game was a lot closer to what people remember. It's 13-7 midway through the third quarter. All right
04:23Fourth quarter had a drive. They didn't score late. I'm losing the interception or went out by 27 14 way for the 49ers
04:30It wasn't the prettiest win. Tampa Bay's got better. That's another team
04:34Because they're gonna have a cakewalk in the South. I'm sorry, New Orleans. Are they really that good? We'll see. No, Carolina is really that
04:41Atlanta Kirk Cousins. I mean they're already calling for Michael Pennix already already
04:47I'm telling you Raiders a second round pick just go get yourself Kirk Cousins. Oh my god the Raiders
04:52Oh, why was Antonio Pierce putting the ball?
04:57Antonio Pierce cowardly move in the history of the NFL punting that one. All right
05:02Let's most
05:04Cowardly, let's calm down Spadova. You're right. No Baker, but Baker never play
05:08Hey, they're building some down there more
05:10I watch him play the more I realize that confidence is such a big factor in sports
05:14He is the guy that he did take Cleveland to the playoffs. He did knock off the Pittsburgh Steelers
05:19I know we've forgotten that yep, but he had moments
05:23He set at the time the rookie quarterback record for most touchdowns in the season
05:29So, yeah, I think that he's a guy that we've kind of slept on and he's he's obviously ascending them
05:35They've got great weaponry Chris Godwin and Mike Evans and feels like that running backs underrated
05:39How about the Miller score to touchdown his debut for all those Washington wide receivers?
05:44I thought all of them were gonna be nice that the team that I did say and I just we got to pump the brakes
05:49Like Caleb's a rookie and that team doesn't have a coach that can go over
05:55Like when I look at like Sean Payton and bonus and clearly he had a bad day yesterday
05:59I at least I know Sean Payton can dial up three or four or five plays right to get bone nicks like
06:04Somewhat going a little right Ibra floos. He could be a great defensive mind
06:08It's really difficult when you can't have dramatic effect on your young
06:12quarterback to be able to just dial up a couple place to calm him down and and and get get things going now that's what
06:19Makes the Texans situation so unique as I'm bad pack the rat-a-tat-tatting around Bobby Sloak is the OC
06:25Yeah
06:25And you've got to me go Ryan's who's at DC and what they're doing with their young quarterback as they stay
06:30Dedicated to the run yesterday in Indianapolis. I know there's just a lot of really good teams and then there's a lot of crap
06:36There's a lot of crap and I'm sitting here saying as long as the Niners just remained
06:41Functional like they've been over the last few years. They've got double-digit wins written all over them, you know, the Houston Texans
06:47I know a lot of people didn't know if last year was real and whether or not they have a
06:52Are they gonna have a drop-off because there's a lot of hype there. I think the Texans are a team
06:57They could be in New Orleans in February that team could be playing for a Super Bowl
07:02CJ Stroud just I mean he I had that game on the quad box the entire time
07:06He just makes play after play after play after play after play
07:09Throw out the threat to throw out the throw Nico Collins and CJ Stroud have some dynamic rapport
07:15It's just unbelievable right and then you add in Stefan Diggs
07:18I know a lot of people were a little weary about some digs as his attitude or whatnot
07:22But he's a perfect player in that system. He could play in the slot you do all the underneath stuff
07:26He moves you change and he brings big-game
07:29Experience playing all those big games in Buffalo and playing all those big games in Minnesota when he was a Viking
07:34I think matters for that Houston Texans team
07:36It didn't add in Joe Mixon who you mentioned the run game Joe Mixon hadn't looked that spry in years
07:41He looked phenomenal and he played in a lot of big games for Cincinnati
07:46And we all forget that at that in that divisional round game against Baltimore. That's a tie ball game
07:51That's a tie football game between the Texans and the Ravens
07:54So them taking that next step getting that experience last year and it all by the way
07:58You add to Neil Hunter on defense alongside Will Anderson jr. I
08:03Really like the Houston Texans man this year coming
08:05I think they're gonna be a threat in the AFC to come out of there and represent them the only
08:09Area where I'm just I have to see that I would put Detroit in the same kind of bucket Philly in the same bucket
08:15do you have the linebackers and the secondary to be able to withstand the whole 17 game season and
08:22All of these elite teams that have elite weapons all along the offensive side of the ball
08:26Especially like like when I look at like the Texans like you're gonna get spread out by Kansas City. You're gonna spread out
08:31I mean, I know that they they ran the ball yesterday, but you're gonna get spread out also by by Josh Allen
08:36I mean, I don't know
08:38You want to talk about early MVP odds? I think he's gonna have to carry that situation in Buffalo
08:43He's the guy that I think I'd sprinkle a little money on winning the MVP
08:47But your point is well taken that they're a team on the rise. No doubt about it
08:51I just look at the NFC and I say like there's about five teams at the Niners are
08:56competing with and then there's a lot of dreck and a lot of teams that just aren't
09:01Yet near where they need to be and the teams that are kind of figuring themselves out like Chicago's figuring itself out
09:06The Vikings are gonna obviously be a work in progress this year. They're figuring themselves out, New York Giants. Just cross them off
09:11They're done commanders Jaden Daniels is a work in progress. I'm gonna cross them off. Yeah
09:17I'm cool off them and Atlanta. I'm ready to cross them off already. They just got
09:22Just it's odd Pittsburgh's a tough defense though. So I'm gonna give Atlanta a couple weeks. I don't like what I saw
09:28I don't like what I saw with the Atlanta Falcons at all. I don't I really don't like what I I mean
09:34There's I don't know what they were trying to accomplish. Were you trying to run the ball?
09:37Were you trying to pass the ball Kirk cousins to seem like a sitting duck in that pocket? Everything's underneath
09:41I I just I don't know about the Falcons. I don't know about the coach. I don't know about the system
09:46I like I really like Tampa Bay in that division and New Orleans may have something to say
09:50We'll see about New Orleans say dominated a game from start to finish even though I know people were down on Derek Carr
09:55It's dominated from start to finish. So in the NFC look Seattle handled their business at home
10:00That's a tough one for them it gives Denver the Rams they'll be around but if the Niners take care of their business now
10:07They got to take care of business tonight against the Jets team and how are they gonna do it Shasta?
10:10They're gonna run the ball. They're gonna pass the ball. Well last year to just defense. They were second and past defense
10:15They give up 168 yards per game in the air and allow the third lowest passer rating
10:21So they get after it they get after it in the past game. They got guys who could rush the pastor
10:25They got guys who could collapse the pocket and they got guys who could be on the island by themselves and saws Gardner
10:31DJ Reed that could really shut your passing game down
10:33So that that chess match between the Niners passing game and that Jets pass defense gonna be very intriguing tonight at Levi's
10:40CMC is the big question mark, you know, what does he look like? How available is he is he available?
10:46You know, like what what what is the juice look like coming out in terms of his like stop and go because he's phenomenal
10:53at the kind of like
10:54everyone to the pitch to the side the line left tackle on the left guard are kind of pulling and he
11:00Stutters his feet stops and goes and cuts up field like that's a big part of his game
11:04And so I want to see where he's at
11:06I want to see where his athleticism is having not played in a while and having the injury and
11:12Is this a Jordan Mason game if CMC is limited it? Where's Brandon?
11:16I you could terms of rep count and I sounds like they're not gonna use them for the full game
11:21Well, he's gonna play a lot. I know he last year. He played 82% of the snaps bread
11:25And I you 82% of snaps he played I think he's he won't get a full game workload, but he's gonna play
11:31I know trick Williams gonna play every single snap
11:33That's for sure
11:34I left tackle book but Brandon I he's gonna be in there a lot especially during passing downs
11:39Don't think the full full a lot bit of plays it, you know again, he played 82% last year
11:44So hopefully he's right. He was running routes on the side, but your point about McCaffrey. How does it change the offense?
11:50How does it change the offense? I think it changes in this sense real quick Saski on third downs
11:55We always talk about pass blocking McCaffrey's a great pass blocker on third downs protecting the quarterback
12:00I think if McCaffrey doesn't play
12:03You may have to dial up Kyle use check for those situations and allow him to be in the backfield to block
12:08Please I think he's a much better pass blocker
12:10Especially if the Jets are blitz and if they try to blitz or if they're rushing guys and they're getting through
12:15These checks a better blocker right now in the Jordan Mason in the pass game. Yeah, that's it. That's a good point
12:19I mean, you know, they're gonna keep in George Kittle the chip at times and that that's kind of something they do
12:25No matter what. This is a big one for Brock Purdy
12:27Not that he's gonna be making a made or broken or anything like that
12:31Just think about it as a Niner fan last night
12:33Were you not watching Stafford and golf thinking about what's gonna happen to the playoffs?
12:37I think a lot of fans were like, all right
12:39This is this is a little teaser
12:41It doesn't mean either of these teams is winning it all or losing and not gonna not gonna be there at the end
12:47It's just like these are what the matchups we look for Friday night Jordan love verse Jalen hurts
12:52I was leaning forward watching both young quarterbacks. Like, all right, what do these guys look like?
12:57What is Jordan love look like in his second full season? You know, what is what is Jalen Hurts look like with Kellen Moore?
13:02So I think if there's no CMC, I think the spotlight goes right to Brock Purdy people
13:08Oh now, let's see what you look like without CMC fair or not. I just think that's the national perspective
13:13I think Brock Purdy is gonna have a spotlight regardless of whether or not CMC plays
13:18Or whether he doesn't because that just past defense does present problems for any passing game out there any NFL
13:26So I think the the spotlight whether you know, it gets heightened. No doubt if CMC doesn't play it gets heightened on Brock Purdy
13:31Okay. Now, can you carry him? Can you still run the ball 30 times without CMC?
13:35Can you still do all these stretch stuff?
13:37Can you run your screen game?
13:38Who's gonna who's gonna run routes at the backfield because that's another
13:41Dynamic where if you get Christian McCaffrey myself on the linebacker you take that linebacker away in the play
13:46Will that linebacker respect the Jordan Mason in the backfield coming out the backfield?
13:51Will they respect how you check coming out the backfield catching passes or whatnot? How does that change the passing dynamic underneath?
13:57It's a huge drop-off. So the whole check down Charlie stuff
14:00You may not be able to get to it without Christian McCaffrey. Doesn't this have like Debo Samuel written all over it tonight's game
14:07Uh, if there's no CMC, well, it just feels like it's gonna be a physical game. Yeah and physical football games
14:13We tend the lean towards Debo Samuel George Kittle. Yeah, they're the physical guys. They're the tone setters
14:19They're the guys were saying. Oh you want to play physical you want to hit? Well, how about this?
14:23Let me lower my shoulder into you. What does that hit gonna be like when Debo cuz I've seen sauce gardener a person
14:29Sauce gardeners a great cover quarter. Where'd you see him?
14:33Las Vegas gets the Raiders last year. So did I football? Oh, I thought maybe you met him
14:45He was in Wimbledon, no, I size him up in Las Vegas going against if I say Adams
14:49Let me tell you my man does not like to tackle does not like to tackle. Oh, so so you were scouting
14:56I'm just saying corners, you know does not like to tackle
15:00So when Debo's running at him or Kittle's running at him we've been breaded I eat for that matter
15:05Will he like to tackle will he break down attack?
15:07All right, eight eight eight nine five seven nine five seven zero your keys to the game. What are they football?
