00:00last two off seasons though for sam fran things have been a little bit uneasy perhaps even
00:05unstable notable 49ers departures already this offseason debo samuel traded to the washington
00:12commanders telenova hufanga one of the leaders defensively for sam fran the last two to three
00:17years leaves as well drake greenlaw signs with the denver broncos jayvon hargrave makes his way
00:25elsewhere as well aaron banks one of the top interior o linemen in the free agency market
00:31signs a big deal in green bay they also lost charbarius ward kyle use check eliza mitchell
00:38elijah mitchell leonard floyd as well a lot of notable names for this san francisco team
00:45that have made this 49ers team the successful one we have seen the last few years four of the
00:51previous five nfc championship games prior to 2024 are now no longer in northern california
00:59so donnie the by herself question to you the san francisco 49ers are not super bowl contenders
01:06i'm gonna buy that right now because if you're just asking based on the moves that were to be
01:09made and what you anticipate is going to happen they lost a lot because the one thing you can
01:14always factor in as i said before the 49ers were so talented and they have a great head coach
01:20maybe not in the biggest moments but on a day-to-day basis when you're looking to just get
01:24your team in line and calling the right plays kyle shannon is one of the best to do it out there
01:28and he always had talent and particularly on defense if he needed a bailout an unbelievable
01:33defensive line one of the best linebacking cores in football and an athletic and average athletic
01:39secondary that was above average in taking the football away you look at that secondary now and
01:44you scratch your head and be like there's some pieces there you look at the wide the you know
01:48linebacking core and say well fred warne is one of the best in the business but no longer the core
01:52itself is elite as a whole and the defensive line who both is a fantastic defensive end but now you
01:58look at the rest of the defensive line you say oh he used to have good defensive tackles other
02:03good defensive ends that's not there now the offense should still be good they lose debo
02:07samuel but you're also now saying okay brandon i let's just snap out of it from a torn acl and be
02:12the great wide receiver we know he can be and juan jennings who did take a step up is he going to be
02:17that next guy can he continue to excel in a position where he wasn't supposed to excel last
02:22year but now being in the spotlight some people perform a little bit differently in that spot
02:26ricky pierce hall who had an inauspicious start to the season last year because he got shot did
02:30play well down the stretch but he's still asking a lot out of him and then brock purdy not even
02:35signed yet so where does that leave everybody up in the air with some of the team leaders here
02:39and the question comes back to are they super bowl contenders usually you start with the division
02:44itself if you are not the best team at least perceived for me to be the best in your division
02:49are you really a super bowl contender now again there are extenuating circumstances well donny
02:53you know if you take a look at the afc north does that mean like you know you have two teams that
02:57could be good with the you know let's say the pittsburgh sealers and the baltimore ravens or
03:01you see well yeah there are extenuating circumstances but for me i'm not excited
03:05about this team we're not adding on right now so right now as we sit on the date of march the 13th
03:11no they're not a super bowl contender for me ben
