Transcript
- 0:05Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Richard Sherman Podcast, and today we
- 0:07Speaker 1: have an incredible guest, a good friend of mine and
- 0:11Speaker 1: a guy who covers the San Francisco forty nine Ers
- 0:14Speaker 1: as good as anyone, David Lombardi of the San Francisco Standard.
- 0:18Speaker 1: Appreciate you joining.
- 0:19Speaker 2: It's up, Sherm. How's it going.
- 0:21Speaker 1: Another day in Paradise? Baby?
- 0:22Speaker 3: You know I'm down in your neck of the woods,
- 0:24Speaker 3: at least where you grew up. I'm down in the
- 0:26Speaker 3: La Area. Forty nine Ers played the Chargers yesterday and
- 0:29Speaker 3: it's nice and hot here every day. But back to
- 0:31Speaker 3: the bay for the finished training camp.
- 0:33Speaker 1: Now, man, Man, that was a great showing by the
- 0:37Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine Ers last night. It looked like
- 0:39Speaker 1: a really fun game to be at. I mean, at
- 0:42Speaker 1: least for the preseason, because the preseason you always kind
- 0:44Speaker 1: of wonder how these games are going to go, how
- 0:46Speaker 1: much effort. You know, young guys are going to play
- 0:47Speaker 1: as hard as they can because it's their first NFL action.
- 0:50Speaker 1: But you know, this game, I'm sure cal Is gonna
- 0:53Speaker 1: turn on the tape and be and enjoy watching it.
- 0:56Speaker 3: Well, they dominated them on both lines of scrimmage, which
- 0:58Speaker 3: makes any coach happy, and you know, you just want
- 1:00Speaker 3: to get out of these games where you do play
- 1:03Speaker 3: your starters, or at least you're starting quarterback healthy. That's
- 1:05Speaker 3: exactly what happened. You know what I thought that first drive.
- 1:08Speaker 3: Kyle likes twelve plays for his QB one. He got
- 1:11Speaker 3: exactly twelve plays. And if there was anything that I
- 1:14Speaker 3: think he wanted to see, it was pretty with good
- 1:18Speaker 3: chemistry with Dejon stribbling and he found him three times.
- 1:22Speaker 3: And I talked the Brock in the locker room after
- 1:25Speaker 3: and he said, you know his hands, Dejon's hands are
- 1:27Speaker 3: just so strong. I think about that on third downs,
- 1:31Speaker 3: even if he's not open. I know if I put
- 1:32Speaker 3: the ball in his general vicinity, he's going to pluck
- 1:35Speaker 3: it out of the air and he's like a vacuum cleaner.
- 1:37Speaker 3: It was awesome to see. You know, normally you got
- 1:39Speaker 3: to scheme rookies open. They got to build a little
- 1:41Speaker 3: bit of confidence. He's making those vet catches from the
- 1:46Speaker 3: get go, and it was what seven catches in week one,
- 1:48Speaker 3: a few more yesterday, and that's all Kyle needed to
- 1:51Speaker 3: see from his starters.
- 1:53Speaker 1: And you know, it's you get caught up in the
- 1:58Speaker 1: past and the players that have been there, and obviously
- 2:02Speaker 1: you know Juwan Jennings War fifteen and you look at
- 2:06Speaker 1: some of those catches and then you hear people start
- 2:08Speaker 1: saying third and design and you're like, hey, let the
- 2:12Speaker 1: rookie eat and let him figure it out. But to
- 2:16Speaker 1: come in and be disprepared to play, you know, for
- 2:18Speaker 1: a guy that a lot of people, I mean, especially
- 2:21Speaker 1: initially when they picked him, we were on the fence
- 2:24Speaker 1: about if on the you know, if not critical of
- 2:28Speaker 1: this pick. And so you know, you see a lot
- 2:31Speaker 1: of people kind of kind of turn it around now
- 2:33Speaker 1: and being like, oh, yeah, I had him as a sleeper.
- 2:35Speaker 1: I had him as a sleeper in my draft. I
- 2:37Speaker 1: you know, I was talking about him because I watched
- 2:39Speaker 1: him play in the SEC number one.
- 2:42Speaker 3: Yeah, right, I mean, it's it's ridiculous that so many
- 2:46Speaker 3: people came out I'd never heard of this guy because
- 2:48Speaker 3: he wasn't on their mock draft. But maybe you need
- 2:50Speaker 3: to make a better mock draft because he's six', three
- 2:53Speaker 3: he runs a four to, three he only dropped one
- 2:56Speaker 3: pass all of last year At Ole. Miss he's maybe
- 2:58Speaker 3: the best blocking wide receiver in this draft. Class and
- 3:02Speaker 3: you know what they Love sherman is that he played
- 3:04Speaker 3: in so many different systems in, college so It's wazoo
- 3:07Speaker 3: To Oklahoma state To All miss and he they all
- 3:11Speaker 3: asked him to do different, things so he you, know
- 3:15Speaker 3: everybody was, saying, well he didn't run intermediate.
- 3:16Speaker 2: Routes that was his old.
- 3:17Speaker 3: Mistape if you actually did your homework and watched The
- 3:20Speaker 3: Oklahoma state, tape he was carving up the middle of the.
- 3:22Speaker 3: Field and then he did that yesterday with With Mac
- 3:25Speaker 3: jones on that post over the middle on third. Down so,
- 3:28Speaker 3: yeah he's as close to a complete receiver as you
- 3:32Speaker 3: could have gotten in this draft, class and he's got a.
- 3:34Speaker 3: CHANCE i think they'd be the best in this draft.
- 3:36Speaker 3: Class we'll see how it plays. Out but the forty
- 3:38Speaker 3: nine ers knew what they were, doing AND i just
- 3:40Speaker 3: think that it's hard to evaluate so many. Players so
- 3:43Speaker 3: people who make these mock, drafts you, know they act
- 3:46Speaker 3: like they've covered it, all but there's gonna be blind,
- 3:49Speaker 3: spots and the forty nine ers might have found a
- 3:51Speaker 3: public blind spot.
- 3:52Speaker 1: Here AND i just love because there WERE i think
- 3:57Speaker 1: it Was Danz bryant On twitter who took talked about
- 4:00Speaker 1: him rounding his route when he was. RUNNING i think
- 4:02Speaker 1: it might have been drift or a dig or. Something
- 4:05Speaker 1: and it's literally How kyle has taught. It, yeah exactly
- 4:08Speaker 1: the whole. Time it's, literally it's it's What kyle. Teaches
- 4:12Speaker 1: it's outside foot, up you, know bang bang, bang rolling to,
- 4:15Speaker 1: it catch it on the. Run and then there was
- 4:17Speaker 1: a perfect example of it in the. Game Mac jones
- 4:20Speaker 1: hits him in stride and a very small, window he
- 4:23Speaker 1: catches it and gets going up the. Field AND i
- 4:25Speaker 1: don't know. Why IF i didn't, know if IF i
- 4:27Speaker 1: had THE tv muted AND i didn't know what year this,
- 4:31Speaker 1: WAS i would have thought that Was Juwan. Jennings And i'm,
- 4:33Speaker 1: sorry that's that's just what it looked like to. Me
- 4:36Speaker 1: he looks like he's going to be a big part
- 4:37Speaker 1: of this. Offense but another receiver that really put on
- 4:40Speaker 1: a show last night Was Jacob. Cowing AND i know
- 4:43Speaker 1: you have been at practice and you've watched, it and
- 4:47Speaker 1: obviously he's been a little beat up and his health
- 4:49Speaker 1: has been a major. Concern what did you think about
- 4:53Speaker 1: what he did last night and his prospects of making this.
- 4:56Speaker 3: Team, WELL i think it's an awesome story AND i
- 4:57Speaker 3: just found this out last night talking to him in the.
- 4:59Speaker 3: Locker he was out all of last year with the hamstring.
- 5:02Speaker 2: ISSUE i wasn't.
- 5:03Speaker 3: Sure exactly what was causing that to be a season long.
- 5:06Speaker 3: Injury he tore his hamstring four times last, year so
- 5:11Speaker 3: he went to hell and.
- 5:13Speaker 2: BACK i, mean it just kept on aggravating.
- 5:15Speaker 3: It it got to the point last season where they
- 5:17Speaker 3: just had to really shut him down and he couldn't
- 5:19Speaker 3: really do anything because they they were trying to get
- 5:22Speaker 3: him back for the year and obviously didn't. Work and
- 5:25Speaker 3: so his performance yesterday that punt returned to eighty three.
- 5:29Speaker 3: Yarder there was a lot of meaning to. That and
- 5:32Speaker 3: there was a day of practice about four or five
- 5:35Speaker 3: days ago where he got banged up again and it was,
- 5:38Speaker 3: like oh, no here we go. Again he's slow to
- 5:40Speaker 3: get up and this guy just can't shake. Injuries but
- 5:43Speaker 3: he found a way to get back out there and
- 5:45Speaker 3: he made one of the best catches of all training
- 5:47Speaker 3: camp From Mac. Jones just climbed the. Ladder not a
- 5:50Speaker 3: tall guy five, nine but over the, middle climbed the,
- 5:53Speaker 3: ladder made the catch AND i asked him about.
- 5:56Speaker 2: IT i, said you, KNOW i watched that.
- 5:57Speaker 3: PRACTICE i don't like to make too much out of,
- 5:59Speaker 3: Practice but to, me it seemed that had some importance
- 6:02Speaker 3: to you beyond just a normal. Session he, Said, YEAH
- 6:04Speaker 3: i have some, heart and last year was really, tough
- 6:09Speaker 3: and you, know just bouncing back from that little minor.
- 6:12Speaker 3: INJURY a practice showed me that that THAT i can do.
- 6:15Speaker 3: This and then yesterday he took that bunt to the.
- 6:17Speaker 1: House, yeah eighty three yards to the, house and he
- 6:21Speaker 1: looked really. Good he looked really. Good you, KNOW i
- 6:24Speaker 1: think he he had an underthrown ball or something earlier
- 6:28Speaker 1: in the, game and you, know you, know guys make
- 6:30Speaker 1: plays and stuff like that. Happens but the way he
- 6:32Speaker 1: responded and you could see the excitement from the team
- 6:36Speaker 1: speaking of, practice you, know good Old. Ai you know
- 6:39Speaker 1: we're talking about. PRACTICE i saw online On. Twitter you,
- 6:43Speaker 1: know you kind of kind of giving it to some
- 6:45Speaker 1: of these fans because people were up in, arms you,
- 6:48Speaker 1: know which is which is the digital media age we're
- 6:51Speaker 1: in and and people getting way more access to training
- 6:54Speaker 1: camp Than i've Ever i've ever heard of. BEFORE i
- 7:01Speaker 1: didn't understand. That, well that's something that that's Still i'm
- 7:04Speaker 1: getting used, To i'll say. That but you hear fans
- 7:07Speaker 1: up in, arms you, know because The chargers receivers alling,
- 7:10Speaker 1: about oh, yeah we lost count of how many touchdowns
- 7:13Speaker 1: we had and all this other grap and you get
- 7:15Speaker 1: in the game and they don't they don't touch.
- 7:18Speaker 3: Paint, WELL i lost count of how many Sacks osa
- 7:21Speaker 3: Di gazoo would have, had but he could only Touch
- 7:23Speaker 3: Justin herbert on the shoulder pad. Right as a, Defender
- 7:26Speaker 3: i'm sure you hated that and trying to cover. PEOPLE
- 7:28Speaker 3: i still, remember sir them twenty, eighteen your first year
- 7:31Speaker 3: with The. Niners you, know there are some people who
- 7:34Speaker 3: wanted to post a one on one with no pass,
- 7:36Speaker 3: rush and you got burned on one of the one on,
- 7:38Speaker 3: ones and they're, like, oh look he's gonna be cooked this.
- 7:41Speaker 3: Year you're coming off your, achilles, right and you ended
- 7:43Speaker 3: up Being All pro in twenty.
- 7:45Speaker 2: Eighteen it's like some of this stuff is not like it's.
- 7:48Speaker 3: Practice it's not real football that you, know you don't
- 7:51Speaker 3: have the pass, rush the quarterback doesn't, have you, know
- 7:55Speaker 3: something to worry about timing, wise there's no safety to
- 7:57Speaker 3: help the, corners, Right i'm sure safety helping you in
- 8:00Speaker 3: that one on one rep would. Help SO i still
- 8:03Speaker 3: remember fighting this battle like ten years, ago telling, people,
- 8:06Speaker 3: guys why don't we wait to the, game why don't
- 8:09Speaker 3: you use you, know actual game tape from prior years
- 8:12Speaker 3: to set an, Expectation but everybody just freaks. Out AND
- 8:16Speaker 3: i thought The Fort anders, defense they only had three
- 8:18Speaker 3: plays yesterday Against herbert and the, starters but they look
- 8:21Speaker 3: completely different than they did in. Practice maybe it's because
- 8:24Speaker 3: they actually were able to put on a pass rush
- 8:26Speaker 3: yesterday and actually hit the.
- 8:28Speaker 1: Quarterback, YEAH i, mean and then you when you get
- 8:35Speaker 1: when you're at full strength for a full, game you,
- 8:37Speaker 1: KNOW i, mean it takes you, know for A Fred
- 8:40Speaker 1: warner And Nick, bosa it's gonna take a second to
- 8:45Speaker 1: get into the field game and impact the, game you
- 8:47Speaker 1: know WHAT i. Mean it's just the way defense is,
- 8:49Speaker 1: played like you impose your will over, time and you,
- 8:52Speaker 1: know SO i don't think there's any. CONCERN i did
- 8:55Speaker 1: like some of the THINGS i saw From JAY. R brown.
- 8:57Speaker 1: Yesterday you, know you know it's it's he's been kind
- 9:00Speaker 1: of up and down from WHAT i hear during this training,
- 9:03Speaker 1: camp but he put put some good things on tape,
- 9:05Speaker 1: yesterday just being, decisive going getting, downhill trusting his, instincts
- 9:10Speaker 1: playing with, confidence and you know some of the other young,
- 9:14Speaker 1: linebackers some of the other young d. LINEMEN i THINK
- 9:16Speaker 1: i Saw Ramelo height make an inside stunt on in
- 9:21Speaker 1: the run game and made a really good play in
- 9:23Speaker 1: the backfield early on in that. Game what are you
- 9:26Speaker 1: hearing About Romelo height and in the new young defensive
- 9:30Speaker 1: lineman BECAUSE i obviously Saw you think D n continues
- 9:34Speaker 1: to be a concern in the depth at defensive end
- 9:37Speaker 1: has obviously been a concern in the past and been
- 9:40Speaker 1: an issue in the pass rush was abysmo last. Year
- 9:44Speaker 1: so do you think they've? Improved do you Think Romelo
- 9:47Speaker 1: height is going to be the guy the forty nine
- 9:49Speaker 1: ers think he? Is.
- 9:50Speaker 3: WELL i think they're still Very Nick bosa. Dependent but
- 9:53Speaker 3: when you pay a guy thirty four million a, YEAR
- 9:55Speaker 3: i know it's not the top of the market, anymore
- 9:57Speaker 3: but whenever you pay a guy that, much you're going
- 9:59Speaker 3: to be dependent on that. Player the good news is
- 10:01Speaker 3: they anticipate that he's going to be back and. Healthy
- 10:03Speaker 3: he looked, great by the, way WHEN i saw him
- 10:05Speaker 3: out at practice for the first week or two coming
- 10:07Speaker 3: off TO. Acl he's dealing with a little bit of
- 10:10Speaker 3: POST acl tendonitis, now but you need, boats you Need Fred.
- 10:15Speaker 3: Warner those are the two guys they didn't have last
- 10:17Speaker 3: year that led to disaster on. Defense and then you
- 10:21Speaker 3: know The height's going to be a supplementary piece on
- 10:23Speaker 3: the other. Side i've really liked. Him you, know this
- 10:25Speaker 3: must be interesting to you since you're so familiar with
- 10:28Speaker 3: what they had run for essentially all Of Kyle shanahan's
- 10:32Speaker 3: tenure up until this. Year Raheem morris has definitely added
- 10:35Speaker 3: things to this. Defense they're going to be running those
- 10:38Speaker 3: those five man, fronts a lot more, offense so a
- 10:40Speaker 3: lot more three to four base kind of. Stuff Romelo
- 10:42Speaker 3: height's a light edge. Rusher he's even lighter than D,
- 10:45Speaker 3: ford who executed a lot of coverage drops in. College
- 10:49Speaker 3: so this is all part of a defense that has
- 10:52Speaker 3: a lot more, adaptability a lot more wrinkles than it
- 10:55Speaker 3: did in the. Past and we'll See Romelo height doing
- 10:57Speaker 3: a little bit of everything for the forty nine. Ers
- 10:59Speaker 3: but they needed that bookend Of bosa and you know
- 11:02Speaker 3: what they've truly truly, missed especially last, year was an
- 11:06Speaker 3: interior rush and that's Where Osa digazooa comes AND i
- 11:10Speaker 3: think he's an awesome player to watch it was cool
- 11:12Speaker 3: just to see him in a very short amount of time. Yesterday,
- 11:15Speaker 3: uh it just pushed the pocket up in the, middle
- 11:17Speaker 3: and that's gonna help guys Like, romelo and it's gonna
- 11:19Speaker 3: help guys Like Nick bosa on the.
- 11:21Speaker 2: Edge.
- 11:22Speaker 1: YEAH i feel like they've been chasing that interior rush
- 11:25Speaker 1: for a really long time since The Forest buckner Left Eric.
- 11:28Speaker 1: Armstead you, know they went After Javon hargrave and and
- 11:32Speaker 1: that didn't go as they expected it, to you, Know
- 11:38Speaker 1: so it looks like they may have found some some
- 11:41Speaker 1: young guys who can get it. Done, Obviously Osa Diggi
- 11:44Speaker 1: zoo was an established guy in this league and has
- 11:47Speaker 1: played well for The Dallas. Cowboys but, uh you, know,
- 11:50Speaker 1: again it's to be. Seen Chris caseric does a great
- 11:54Speaker 1: job with those, guys getting maximizing them and getting the
- 11:57Speaker 1: most out of everything they have to get to. Offer
- 12:01Speaker 1: but what's your biggest takeaway from training camp in these
- 12:05Speaker 1: two preseason games that they had that forty Nine ers
- 12:08Speaker 1: fans should be aware of going forward.
- 12:12Speaker 3: Well health is going to be well for this. Team
- 12:15Speaker 3: it feels like that's the story every year for the
- 12:17Speaker 3: forty nine. Ers BUT i think on an overarching, takeaway
- 12:20Speaker 3: assuming they're generally, healthy this team is going to go
- 12:23Speaker 3: as far as its defense can take. It BECAUSE i
- 12:25Speaker 3: see this offense being a top shelf. Unit so you,
- 12:28Speaker 3: know we always think about balance with these. Teams so
- 12:32Speaker 3: if they can be a top three, offense, okay you're set,
- 12:35Speaker 3: There but can that defense be above? Average can it
- 12:37Speaker 3: be in the top half of the. League because if
- 12:39Speaker 3: they can do, that and last year they were in
- 12:40Speaker 3: the twenties after all those, injuries they didn't really have a.
- 12:44Speaker 3: Chance they were a team that was, scrappy and they
- 12:46Speaker 3: somehow overcame a lot of the diversity to win those thirteen.
- 12:50Speaker 3: Games but we knew that they weren't going to take
- 12:52Speaker 3: it all the way because they were just two poor
- 12:55Speaker 3: us on defense and not explosive enough to make up for.
- 12:58Speaker 2: It on offense without any of those wide.
- 13:00Speaker 3: RECEIVERS i think they solved on paper the explosiveness issues
- 13:05Speaker 3: when they Added Mike, evans when they Added Dejon.
- 13:07Speaker 2: STRIBBLING i think they're gonna be able to.
- 13:09Speaker 3: Run the ball to set up the. PASS i think
- 13:11Speaker 3: they're gonna be chunk plays this. YEAR i think Brock
- 13:13Speaker 3: perry is an unbelievable. Quarterback but, again you have to
- 13:18Speaker 3: have a two sided. Team and if that defense can
- 13:23Speaker 3: be in the top half of the, league they've got
- 13:25Speaker 3: a shot to go all the way this. Year if
- 13:28Speaker 3: they're a top ten, defense they're gonna be one of the.
- 13:30Speaker 3: FAVORITES i don't know if they're going to be at that,
- 13:31Speaker 3: level but they do Get Fred warner And Nick bosa
- 13:35Speaker 3: back this, year and then it's gonna be about these young.
- 13:37Speaker 2: Guys.
- 13:38Speaker 3: Sheurm it's gonna be about how they fill in speed,
- 13:41Speaker 3: wise how they fill, in you, know hunger, wise because
- 13:44Speaker 3: the run defense hasn't been good for two, years AND
- 13:46Speaker 3: i think it really all starts. There and then How's
- 13:48Speaker 3: Raheem morris gonna mesh with a lot of this new
- 13:51Speaker 3: talent that they.
- 13:51Speaker 1: Have i'm looking forward to seeing how this defense is
- 13:57Speaker 1: going to be in the. Secondary you, know they're still very.
- 14:00Speaker 1: Young you, know it's it just it was too inconsistent last.
- 14:08Speaker 1: Year they need to produce more. Turnovers they need to
- 14:10Speaker 1: create more. Turnovers they they played a lot of young
- 14:14Speaker 1: guys last, year and and obviously there's been some criticism
- 14:19Speaker 1: of the back, end the safeties and and the concern.
- 14:22Speaker 1: THERE i thought they would bring in some, uh you,
- 14:25Speaker 1: know a veteran of some kind to just you, know
- 14:28Speaker 1: kind of liven up the. Competition and you, KNOW i
- 14:30Speaker 1: think they tried to do that With Ashton, davis BUT
- 14:32Speaker 1: i just thought they'd bring in more of an established
- 14:34Speaker 1: it like they did With Tayshaun gibson a couple of years,
- 14:37Speaker 1: ago and you know it it turned out really. Well you,
- 14:40Speaker 1: know he ended up playing some of the best football
- 14:42Speaker 1: of his career For San francisco forty nine. Ers so
- 14:46Speaker 1: not that The jay here AND i can't do it
- 14:49Speaker 1: In Elik mustafa and, uh you, know those guys can't
- 14:52Speaker 1: get it, done uh. Seagull but if they if they
- 14:58Speaker 1: get it, done. Fantastic but if it if if they,
- 15:00Speaker 1: struggle you have no, like that's. It you, know that's
- 15:03Speaker 1: what you gotta arride. With and so that's my only
- 15:06Speaker 1: concern there is if you, know You i'm sure they're
- 15:09Speaker 1: they're they're looking under every stone and knocking on every
- 15:14Speaker 1: door and making the phone calls to see what they can,
- 15:17Speaker 1: do just you, know in that just in case. Scenario
- 15:20Speaker 1: but what have you seen from the safety throughout training?
- 15:24Speaker 1: Camp do you feel good about that? Group do you
- 15:26Speaker 1: feel confident about them going into the?
- 15:28Speaker 2: Season, well here's what the forty nine ers.
- 15:30Speaker 3: Believe they think that the fact that their pass rush
- 15:32Speaker 3: was so terrible last, year only twenty, sacks that was
- 15:35Speaker 3: the least in the. League they they thought that that
- 15:37Speaker 3: is what hurt the safeties the. Most, well we'll see
- 15:40Speaker 3: if they're. Right but another wrinkle to this is THAT
- 15:43Speaker 3: i Think Raheem morris and you could probably speak to
- 15:46Speaker 3: this better than, me just being a former, player a
- 15:50Speaker 3: guy to eat in the defensive backfield who knows some
- 15:52Speaker 3: of the schematics. Stuff BUT i think that he's going
- 15:55Speaker 3: to be really adaptable on the back, end AND i
- 15:57Speaker 3: think he's going to be using up Than. STOUT i,
- 16:00Speaker 3: LOVE i want to hear what you think About Upton,
- 16:02Speaker 3: stout BUT i think he will see him a little
- 16:04Speaker 3: bit at. SAFETY i think he's going to be a.
- 16:05Speaker 3: Swisstart he's playing that star. POSITION i Know Jalen ramsey
- 16:09Speaker 3: played that For Raheem morrison IN, la but he's going
- 16:12Speaker 3: to Use Upton stout in that star, position but probably
- 16:15Speaker 3: differently To taylor to his skill set AND i THINK
- 16:18Speaker 3: i just think that you're going to have adaptability between
- 16:20Speaker 3: safeties and the nickel, back maybe even a little bit
- 16:22Speaker 3: between the. CORNERS i Think raheem's going to be really,
- 16:24Speaker 3: creative and you, know you could tell me If i'm
- 16:28Speaker 3: onto something, Here BUT i think that's going to be
- 16:29Speaker 3: one of the ways that the forty nine ers try
- 16:31Speaker 3: to pick up some of the slack on the back.
- 16:33Speaker 1: End. YEAH i think that's just the evolution of the
- 16:36Speaker 1: league where it's. At. Defensively if you look at The
- 16:39Speaker 1: Super bowl last year Between San francisco And New, ENGLAND
- 16:42Speaker 1: i mean In seattle And New, england you could see
- 16:45Speaker 1: the safeties and nickels pretty much entertain. Changeably, Yeah and
- 16:49Speaker 1: that's the way they were disguising. Coverage you, know if
- 16:52Speaker 1: a if a slot receiver motion to the other, side
- 16:54Speaker 1: sometimes the safety and the nickel would rock and roll
- 16:58Speaker 1: like like two safeties used to and leave the. Box
- 17:01Speaker 1: safety in the box and he rocks back into the safety,
- 17:04Speaker 1: position so it, disguise and then they play man. Coverage
- 17:08Speaker 1: so it gives you a zone indicator and then you
- 17:10Speaker 1: play man. Coverage and it's just another evolution to what
- 17:14Speaker 1: teams are doing to muddy the picture for these. Quarterbacks
- 17:17Speaker 1: AND i Think New england was doing a really good
- 17:20Speaker 1: job defensively last year maximizing their, talent and Obviously mike
- 17:24Speaker 1: McDonald And seattle have, been you, know on the top
- 17:27Speaker 1: of their games and played fantastic. Football SO i, think you,
- 17:30Speaker 1: know just Like kyle And sean McVay and all those,
- 17:34Speaker 1: guys you, know people try to steal what they've been
- 17:37Speaker 1: doing and try, to you, know because they're so efficient
- 17:40Speaker 1: and so effective at what they're. Doing so other. Teams you,
- 17:44Speaker 1: know it's a copycat, league and you're gonna do what.
- 17:46Speaker 1: Works you're gonna whatever the flavor. Is AND i think right,
- 17:49Speaker 1: now having a versatile nickel safety and guys who can
- 17:53Speaker 1: safeties that can cover and man and man and go
- 17:56Speaker 1: down and play in a nickel type, role And nichols
- 17:58Speaker 1: that can get back to safety just makes the defense
- 18:01Speaker 1: a lot more versatile and aggressive and difficult to prepare
- 18:06Speaker 1: for because the picture is never really what you think it.
- 18:09Speaker 3: Is, Yeah AND i think that's exactly what they're doing
- 18:11Speaker 3: in a defensive. Backfield and somebody like up And. Stout
- 18:15Speaker 3: he's such a fascinating player to me because he's not,
- 18:18Speaker 3: tall BUT i think he almost uses the fact that
- 18:20Speaker 3: he's only five to nine to his, advantage just as
- 18:23Speaker 3: weird as that, sounds because he can fit through smaller
- 18:26Speaker 3: crevices there on the. Inside he's just a pain against the.
- 18:29Speaker 3: Run you, know bigger guards and linemen are gonna have
- 18:33Speaker 3: a really tough time tracking and blocking this. Guy and
- 18:36Speaker 3: then of course he can. Cover AND i think he's
- 18:39Speaker 3: really smart as. WELL i actually visited his college At
- 18:42Speaker 3: Western kentucky after the forty niners drafted him to talk
- 18:45Speaker 3: to his, coach and you, know a lot of the staff,
- 18:47Speaker 3: there and just the way that they glowed about this.
- 18:49Speaker 3: Guy you could tell that this was before he played
- 18:52Speaker 3: a snap for the forty nine, ers but you could
- 18:53Speaker 3: tell they might have unearthed something really good in that third.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Round and that you know.
- 18:58Speaker 3: If you watch the tape last, year they played In
- 19:01Speaker 3: seattle to begin the, season and they played In seattle
- 19:04Speaker 3: at the very end of the. Season Upton stout was
- 19:07Speaker 3: the liability on defense In week one because he was
- 19:09Speaker 3: the rookie and obviously The seahawks were going after him
- 19:12Speaker 3: a couple of costly. PENALTIES i thought he might have
- 19:14Speaker 3: been the best player on the field for the forty
- 19:16Speaker 3: Nine ERDs defensively by the time the season. Ended and
- 19:19Speaker 3: that was POINT a to POINT b in twenty twenty,
- 19:20Speaker 3: five and now you've got this guy anchoring the secondary
- 19:23Speaker 3: With lenore and Obviously Ronaldo green.
- 19:26Speaker 2: Who heard his hamstring.
- 19:28Speaker 3: Unfortunately but they Signed Jack, jones and you, know they
- 19:31Speaker 3: have more depth now at corner than they, did so
- 19:34Speaker 3: for some of the shortcomings that they're worried about at,
- 19:36Speaker 3: safety they do have more veteran depth at the cornerback,
- 19:39Speaker 3: position which should be.
- 19:40Speaker 1: Valuable definitely. Valuable and NOW i want to move on
- 19:43Speaker 1: to the offensive. Side there's been, rumors you, know the
- 19:47Speaker 1: whole in everybody, speculating, no As christian McCaffrey's back really,
- 19:51Speaker 1: tired or is he concerned About Jamir gibbs', contract In
- 19:55Speaker 1: John robinson and all these guys getting getting these major.
- 19:58Speaker 1: Deals but it seems Like Kyle shanahan went out of
- 20:03Speaker 1: his way to dispel that. Rumor but you never. Know you,
- 20:07Speaker 1: know in previous, years When christian McCaffrey's getting protected during the,
- 20:11Speaker 1: preseason people understood they're, like, oh offensive player of the,
- 20:14Speaker 1: year they're taking care of. Him they wanted to get
- 20:15Speaker 1: through the. Season this, year it's like they're Protecting christian. McCaffrey.
- 20:19Speaker 3: Holding don't get logical with, me, Man do not bring
- 20:22Speaker 3: logic to a. Fight ON x for. SURE i, mean
- 20:25Speaker 3: they're bubble Wrapping christian McCaffrey and it is their chance
- 20:29Speaker 3: that they sweeten his deal in a very minor. Way,
- 20:33Speaker 3: sure but he's not even on the lame duck year
- 20:35Speaker 3: of his contract, yet and he already got paid out
- 20:37Speaker 3: an eleven million dollar option bonus In, March so you
- 20:40Speaker 3: would think that the time to try to renegotiate, that
- 20:43Speaker 3: if he wanted it in a serious, way would have been.
- 20:46Speaker 3: EARLIER i think the Forty niners want to see how
- 20:47Speaker 3: this season plays, out and then he's going to be
- 20:50Speaker 3: entering the final year of his contract in twenty twenty.
- 20:52Speaker 3: Seven if he has a good year and they want
- 20:55Speaker 3: to keep this, going obviously they're going to rip that
- 20:58Speaker 3: up and give him.
- 20:59Speaker 2: A new deal next.
- 21:00Speaker 3: Offseason but that's a bridge they're not going to cross this.
- 21:03Speaker 3: Offseason but you bubble Rap christian, McCaffrey you bubble Wrapped
- 21:07Speaker 3: Trent williams to a certain. Extent he didn't play in
- 21:09Speaker 3: any of these preseason. Games, Obviously Nick bosa is dealing
- 21:12Speaker 3: with some of the tendonitis right. Now so the goal
- 21:15Speaker 3: it's not Just week, one it's the fact that you
- 21:20Speaker 3: have to play games through all Of, september all Of,
- 21:23Speaker 3: october all Of.
- 21:24Speaker 2: November all Of, December.
- 21:26Speaker 3: January you hope that you're back here IN la AND
- 21:29Speaker 3: sofi In, february, Right so you, know nobody has ever
- 21:34Speaker 3: won A Super bowl In, august but they've certainly lost
- 21:38Speaker 3: Super bowls In, august right with some of these. Injuries,
- 21:40Speaker 3: SO i, MEAN i think it's. Logical but everything these
- 21:43Speaker 3: days is a, scandal, Right SO i guess.
- 21:47Speaker 2: That's just par for the course here in twenty twenty.
- 21:50Speaker 1: Six, yeah we're in A we're in an age where
- 21:52Speaker 1: it has to be some negative connotation associated with why
- 21:56Speaker 1: players out instead of just the same reason he was
- 21:59Speaker 1: out last, OFFSEASON i mean last preseason and the preseason before.
- 22:03Speaker 1: That it's just so what you do with, him but
- 22:06Speaker 1: staying in the running back room would be you, know
- 22:08Speaker 1: we talked off camera About Kaylon black and you you
- 22:11Speaker 1: feel really good about his. Prospects you said you were
- 22:14Speaker 1: watching his past protection and that's a big thing For Kyle.
- 22:19Speaker 1: Shanahan if you can trust him in past, protection you
- 22:21Speaker 1: can trust him with the, football and you can trust
- 22:25Speaker 1: him out. There you, know Obviously christian McCaffrey is going
- 22:27Speaker 1: to take a lot of plays off which we've seen
- 22:29Speaker 1: over the. YEARS i think last Year robinson learned That
- 22:34Speaker 1: christian McCaffrey does not come out the game very very.
- 22:37Speaker 1: Often but what what have you seen From Kaylon black
- 22:40Speaker 1: and what do you think his prospects are to play.
- 22:43Speaker 3: This, well let me tell you a story from last.
- 22:45Speaker 3: Season there's a game against The. Falcons it was On
- 22:48Speaker 3: sunday night and the forty Nine ers were driving to
- 22:51Speaker 3: seal the game And christian was in the middle of
- 22:53Speaker 3: his four hundred and thirteen touch season wasn't coming off the.
- 22:56Speaker 3: Field they hit third and twelve.
- 22:59Speaker 2: In the red.
- 22:59Speaker 3: Zone is the quarterback in this game And kyle had
- 23:03Speaker 3: called a play to convert the third and twelve For
- 23:07Speaker 3: christian and he was supposed to line up as a slot,
- 23:09Speaker 3: receiver except that when the forty Nine ers broke the
- 23:13Speaker 3: huddle or got close to breaking the, Huddle Kyle shanahan
- 23:16Speaker 3: looked up from his play sheet and he noticed That
- 23:18Speaker 3: christian McCaffrey was standing right next to him on the.
- 23:22Speaker 2: Sideline he was gassed, winded and he, goes are you?
- 23:26Speaker 3: Hurt And christian said, No i'm just, tired and he's, like,
- 23:29Speaker 3: well this next place for you and only you can
- 23:31Speaker 3: run this.
- 23:32Speaker 2: PLAY i don't trust any of the other running. Backs
- 23:34Speaker 2: if you're.
- 23:35Speaker 3: Not, hurt get your ass back out, there And christian
- 23:38Speaker 3: McCaffrey has to sprint back on the.
- 23:40Speaker 2: Field we all know what happened.
- 23:42Speaker 3: Next even though he was, tired he ran the, route
- 23:44Speaker 3: he converted the first, down caught a thirteen yarder on
- 23:47Speaker 3: third and, twelve and then that set up the touchdown
- 23:49Speaker 3: that sealed the.
- 23:49Speaker 2: Game you don't want to keep on doing that To christian.
- 23:52Speaker 3: McCaffrey you might be able to get away with it
- 23:54Speaker 3: a few, times but you have to find a way
- 23:58Speaker 3: to be able to be comfortable with somebody else in those.
- 24:01Speaker 3: Spots and up until, now they just haven't had a
- 24:05Speaker 3: back versatile enough to Make Kyle shanahan breathe easily enough
- 24:09Speaker 3: in that. SITUATION i really think That kaylon might be that.
- 24:12Speaker 2: GUY i really. Do and that's why they.
- 24:15Speaker 3: Drafted him in the third round and that's why they're
- 24:17Speaker 3: so excited about.
- 24:18Speaker 1: Him, YEAH i, mean you saw flashes of it last.
- 24:21Speaker 1: Night obviously you're not going to see a ton in the.
- 24:23Speaker 1: Preseason kyle isn't gonna really dial up the run game
- 24:27Speaker 1: and the way he is during the season but you saw.
- 24:30Speaker 1: Flashes you, know he's the downhill. Runner you saw it
- 24:32Speaker 1: on the short yards. Play you saw his burst on
- 24:36Speaker 1: the one play that he got you, know a little
- 24:38Speaker 1: bit of room where you, know he kind of ran
- 24:40Speaker 1: into the pile and then broke out FOR i think
- 24:43Speaker 1: seven or eight. Yards SO i think he's gonna do. Well,
- 24:46Speaker 1: Obviously Mike evans has been talked about a ton this
- 24:49Speaker 1: offseason and throughout training. Camp he's going to be a fantastic.
- 24:53Speaker 1: Addition the part the place WHERE i was most concerned
- 24:58Speaker 1: at the end of last season and still this offseason
- 25:00Speaker 1: and still now was the offensive. Line And i'm still
- 25:03Speaker 1: concerned and and the concerns are coming coming coming to,
- 25:07Speaker 1: roost especially with the left.
- 25:10Speaker 2: Guards you, know.
- 25:11Speaker 1: Nobody, knows nobody knows who's gonna play left. Guard And
- 25:14Speaker 1: i'm not incredibly confident at the center. Position what what
- 25:18Speaker 1: are you feeling like because you're you're more doubt In
- 25:20Speaker 1: you're at practice every, day you're so connected to the. Team,
- 25:24Speaker 1: Obviously Kyle field is really good that the team feels
- 25:27Speaker 1: really good about this offensive. Line you know it JUST
- 25:30Speaker 1: i just keep going to That Seattle seahawks game where
- 25:33Speaker 1: they cannot move they cannot Move Byron murphy and they're
- 25:36Speaker 1: double team in him and he's splitting the double and
- 25:38Speaker 1: tackling the running back in the. Backfield and you, didn't
- 25:41Speaker 1: we didn't rectify do anything to rectify. That and SO
- 25:45Speaker 1: i think that's where where my biggest concern. Is you
- 25:48Speaker 1: have Potentially Aaron donald coming back into the, division and
- 25:52Speaker 1: that interior offensive line did not improve enough for you
- 25:55Speaker 1: to to feel confident in those games going against the
- 25:58Speaker 1: same guys who manhandled these men last.
- 26:00Speaker 2: Season, yeah left guard to.
- 26:02Speaker 3: Me kyle had a scary quote if you're a forty
- 26:05Speaker 3: Nine ers fan the other, day said something along the
- 26:08Speaker 3: lines of neither of the three guys, competing AND i
- 26:10Speaker 3: think there were actually four guys, competing But Austin Pleasant
- 26:13Speaker 3: scott got, hurt but he, said neither of the guys
- 26:15Speaker 3: competing has done enough to make, us you, know feel
- 26:20Speaker 3: completely good about. This so that's something along those, lines
- 26:22Speaker 3: basically saying, that you, know we were really hoping that somebody.
- 26:25Speaker 2: Would grab this.
- 26:26Speaker 3: Job nobody has and now you, know at this point
- 26:31Speaker 3: we're close to the, season they might platoon that.
- 26:33Speaker 2: Position they did last. Year they had down the.
- 26:36Speaker 3: Stretch it Was Ben BArch And Spencer burford Until BArch got.
- 26:39Speaker 3: Hurt neither of those two guys are on the. Team
- 26:42Speaker 3: they Tried Connor colby out there early due to some
- 26:46Speaker 3: other injuries at the start of the, year and he
- 26:49Speaker 3: wasn't very. Good AND i think there was like this
- 26:50Speaker 3: wishful thinking from the forty nine ers this offseason That
- 26:53Speaker 3: colby would be a completely different player this, year and
- 26:57Speaker 3: that they were talking, about you, know how he looked
- 27:00Speaker 3: in the weight room.
- 27:01Speaker 2: And all this and all that and.
- 27:02Speaker 3: OFFSEASON i never bought it BECAUSE i need to see
- 27:06Speaker 3: it on the, field you. Know and when the guy
- 27:08Speaker 3: struggled last, Year Trent williams had to cover a lot.
- 27:10Speaker 2: Of his mistakes at left. Tackle SO i never bought.
- 27:13Speaker 3: It and then lo and behold about a week and a,
- 27:15Speaker 3: half two weeks, ago they Moved Connor colby off the
- 27:18Speaker 3: first team and you saw them go To Robert, jones
- 27:22Speaker 3: the veteran who's had some pass protection issues over the
- 27:24Speaker 3: course of his. Career So i'm not sure, SURE i
- 27:27Speaker 3: really am not sure at that left guard. Position that
- 27:30Speaker 3: is the one big big weakness on this offense and
- 27:33Speaker 3: the only saving grace there if there are major. Struggles
- 27:38Speaker 3: once the season starts is that that guy plays next
- 27:40Speaker 3: to seventy, one plays next To Trent, williams and he
- 27:43Speaker 3: can erase some. Mistakes and you, know one more saving
- 27:47Speaker 3: grace is That Brock purdy was the hardest quarterback to
- 27:49Speaker 3: sack in the league last year best pressure to sack.
- 27:52Speaker 3: Ratio SO i, mean interior pressure is hard to get
- 27:54Speaker 3: get away. From but if there's somebody that is capable
- 27:57Speaker 3: of getting rid of the, football he's got a quick
- 27:59Speaker 3: couple steps to get away from.
- 28:01Speaker 2: It two.
- 28:01Speaker 3: Moves really, well it is your quarterback. Party BUT i
- 28:04Speaker 3: agree with. You you've got a Block Byron, murphy may
- 28:06Speaker 3: have to Block Aaron. Donald there's a lot of really
- 28:08Speaker 3: good three techts in this league to where it's hard
- 28:11Speaker 3: to not have a good left.
- 28:12Speaker 1: Guard it's impossible to win without a good interior offensive
- 28:20Speaker 1: line in this. League AND i think that's my biggest
- 28:24Speaker 1: concern for this, team and not even just in the past.
- 28:27Speaker 1: Game LIKE i, think like you, Said brocking avoid it
- 28:30Speaker 1: and do all that make his, magic but you shouldn't
- 28:31Speaker 1: have to depend on that. Magic just get a better
- 28:33Speaker 1: left guard and maybe maybe look at the. Center you,
- 28:37Speaker 1: know BUT i think it's hard to feel confident in
- 28:43Speaker 1: the run, game and people were, like, Oh christian McCaffrey
- 28:46Speaker 1: took a step back last, season and he's also a
- 28:48Speaker 1: step in all this. Stuff they can't block, them like
- 28:52Speaker 1: they're not, blocking there's no hole stuff from to. Find
- 28:56Speaker 1: like he's done a great job of being masterful at
- 28:59Speaker 1: finding things that that aren't there and creating. Issues but
- 29:02Speaker 1: sometimes you cannot create when you're when you're doubling up
- 29:06Speaker 1: to a guy that you can't, move there's not going
- 29:10Speaker 1: to be even in when you're when he outside zone
- 29:13Speaker 1: and you running all these things that have all this.
- 29:15Speaker 1: Movement if you can't move a guy with a double,
- 29:18Speaker 1: team it's. Done it's. Dead and that's the best round.
- 29:22Speaker 2: Zero, yeah the whole.
- 29:23Speaker 1: THING i thought they would do a better job of
- 29:27Speaker 1: addressing that because they watched the same TAPE i. Watched
- 29:30Speaker 1: and you can say what you want About oh, man
- 29:33Speaker 1: these guys are are the perfect guys fit for these.
- 29:36Speaker 1: Schemes but you have to be able to win your,
- 29:37Speaker 1: division and in your division are. Monsters there's real monsters
- 29:42Speaker 1: in this. Division SO i don't, Know, well, No i'm
- 29:47Speaker 1: gonna wait and.
- 29:47Speaker 3: SEE i, guess AND i guess we have to write
- 29:50Speaker 3: That carver will as the rookie they. Drafted they didn't
- 29:53Speaker 3: use a high draft, pick they use a fourth rounder on.
- 29:56Speaker 2: Him he might be the. Favorite.
- 29:57Speaker 3: Now he started the game against The charger at left,
- 30:00Speaker 3: guard SO i, know maybe he ends up surprising people
- 30:04Speaker 3: in his first. Year they've had first year starting guards,
- 30:06Speaker 3: before so we'll. See and one other THING i would
- 30:09Speaker 3: add is That Dominic POONEY i don't think he played
- 30:12Speaker 3: last year one hundred, percent and he could knock on
- 30:15Speaker 3: wood that he stays healthy this. Year but at right,
- 30:18Speaker 3: guard he was so good as a rookie in twenty twenty,
- 30:21Speaker 3: four especially early. ON i don't think he matched that
- 30:23Speaker 3: level of play after he hurt his knee in the
- 30:25Speaker 3: preseason against The, Raiders so that's something to keep in
- 30:29Speaker 3: mind as. Well BUT i, MEAN i agree with you
- 30:32Speaker 3: that there is a lot seemingly rioting on an unproven
- 30:37Speaker 3: player In Carver willis or whoever else wins that competition
- 30:41Speaker 3: at left, guard and we'll see how they handle.
- 30:44Speaker 1: It, Okay and my next question is who's been the
- 30:48Speaker 1: biggest surprise at the forty nine ers training.
- 30:50Speaker 3: Camp, oh that's a good, Question Jayden. Dougger, YEAH i
- 30:54Speaker 3: can't believe we haven't talked about this. Guy yet he's
- 30:57Speaker 3: got a seven foot. WINGSPAN i have done my. RESEARCH
- 31:02Speaker 3: i have yet to find and maybe maybe you have
- 31:04Speaker 3: a couple, ideas But i've yet to find a stack,
- 31:06Speaker 3: linebacker not an outside, linebacker but he's playing inside linebacker
- 31:11Speaker 3: with it AN nfl history with a seven foot. Wingspan
- 31:14Speaker 3: it's longer Than Alden. Smith's and the REASON kjk yes
- 31:18Speaker 3: his wing his wing span is longer Than Alden smith
- 31:22Speaker 3: with about an inch. Longer it's, insane like this has
- 31:26Speaker 3: led me down to a rabbit. Hole and the reason
- 31:28Speaker 3: why you don't see inside linebackers with this long of
- 31:31Speaker 3: a wingspan is because normally you put that guy at edge.
- 31:34Speaker 3: Rusher and he did play edge rusher for a season in,
- 31:36Speaker 3: college but he also played linebacker and then he played
- 31:39Speaker 3: safety before. That SO i mean this is like the
- 31:41Speaker 3: new kind of the new age, defender, right that's that
- 31:45Speaker 3: could play everything basically on the back. End probably can't play,
- 31:49Speaker 3: corner but has been able to cover from safety in.
- 31:53Speaker 3: College AND i Think Raheem morris is going to deploy
- 31:55Speaker 3: him in a bunch of different. Ways there was a
- 31:57Speaker 3: practice where he lined lined up With Chris caseraka and
- 31:59Speaker 3: the edge rushers to work on that part of his.
- 32:02Speaker 3: Game mostly he's been with your former teammate with WITH
- 32:05Speaker 3: kJ wright and And Johnny holland and the. LINEBACKERS i
- 32:09Speaker 3: think THAT kJ looks at him and is, like, WELL
- 32:11Speaker 3: i was a six to four.
- 32:12Speaker 2: Linebacker this is.
- 32:13Speaker 3: Awesome this is like me in in younger, form AND
- 32:16Speaker 3: i get to coach him up. Right so it's it's
- 32:19Speaker 3: fascinating with that. Wingspan we've seen it. Now you, know
- 32:23Speaker 3: the very first play tackle that he made in the
- 32:26Speaker 3: first preseason, game he tracked Cam ward to the. Sideline
- 32:29Speaker 3: he just saw those long arms and those long. Strides
- 32:31Speaker 3: he was really. Rough you put on the tape his linebacker.
- 32:35Speaker 3: TAPE i don't think was good in, college but the
- 32:38Speaker 3: forty nine ers had a. Vision AND i think that
- 32:40Speaker 3: he has blossomed much more quickly THAN i. Expected and
- 32:44Speaker 3: maybe it's, just you, know maybe he just fits what
- 32:46Speaker 3: they're running so. Perfectly BUT i think he's gonna play
- 32:49Speaker 3: AND i think he's gonna play a.
- 32:50Speaker 1: Lot let's talk about this. Division, obviously it's the toughest
- 32:55Speaker 1: division in, football and and and it's only getting. Better you.
- 32:59Speaker 1: Know it's this offseason seems like seemed like an arms
- 33:02Speaker 1: race in THE Nfc, west uh with The rams getting
- 33:06Speaker 1: McDuffie And watson and and and uh obviously the The
- 33:12Speaker 1: Big dog And Miles garrett potentially bringing Back Aaron. Donald you,
- 33:16Speaker 1: KNOW i think he had a workout the other. Day
- 33:18Speaker 1: is just trying to figure it. Out, obviously there's some
- 33:21Speaker 1: financial and contract deals that they need to figure. Out
- 33:26Speaker 1: and then In, seattle you, know they're they're just steady
- 33:29Speaker 1: staying the. Course they they kept the players in house
- 33:32Speaker 1: that they needed to. Keep Devin witherspoon just signed a big. Deal,
- 33:36Speaker 1: Obviously Jay sen signed his big, Deal so those guys
- 33:40Speaker 1: aren't going. Anywhere the defensive line that's been incredibly formidable
- 33:43Speaker 1: is still. Formidable they Drafted Jagerian. Price he's had an
- 33:47Speaker 1: outstanding training. Camp this game and In australia is gonna
- 33:53Speaker 1: have a, lot a lot riding on, it you. Know
- 33:56Speaker 1: for usually you don't say that earlier in the, season
- 33:59Speaker 1: and like a first, game you, know even last, year last,
- 34:01Speaker 1: year the first, game you, know people are, like, oh you,
- 34:03Speaker 1: know we'll figure it. Out and the league is doing
- 34:05Speaker 1: a great job of now making everything meaningful because last
- 34:09Speaker 1: year it Was San francisco forty nine ers In seattle game,
- 34:12Speaker 1: one and it was a very tight and hard fought.
- 34:15Speaker 1: Game and then at the end of the, SEASON i was,
- 34:17Speaker 1: like you guys are diabolical for. That like first, game
- 34:20Speaker 1: in last, game fourth and last game was for the.
- 34:23Speaker 1: DIVISION i, mean you couldn't have scripted it any.

- 35:46Speaker 1: Time what are you feeling in your gut for This rams?
- 35:51Speaker 1: Game In? Australia, obviously The rams have been the talk
- 35:55Speaker 1: of the offseason because of you, know rightfully, so all
- 35:58Speaker 1: the things that they've, done all the they've spent on their,
- 36:00Speaker 1: Defense Matthew stafford coming off AN mvp, Season Poka Nakua
- 36:05Speaker 1: steele and all. Pro Davante adams looks really. Good if
- 36:08Speaker 1: you turn on x at any, time you'll see A
- 36:11Speaker 1: Davante adams. Highlight Kyvin williams in the run game has been.
- 36:15Speaker 1: Good their offensive line was really good last. Year they
- 36:18Speaker 1: feel really good about them, themselves and and but they
- 36:22Speaker 1: went they. Split they split last. Year even with all,
- 36:25Speaker 1: that and they, split And Kendrick bourne And Mac jones
- 36:27Speaker 1: and that team went in TO la and found a
- 36:30Speaker 1: way to. Win so sometimes it just feels LIKE i don't,
- 36:33Speaker 1: know Like kyle Has sean's number in some of these.
- 36:37Speaker 1: Games you, know regardless of who's the more talented, team
- 36:40Speaker 1: who's the better, Team kyle seems to find a way
- 36:44Speaker 1: majority of the.
- 36:45Speaker 3: Time What i'll say About australia, is you know the
- 36:48Speaker 3: higher stakes that you. Mentioned it's as simple AS i
- 36:51Speaker 3: don't think you want to fly fifteen hours somewhere and,
- 36:53Speaker 3: lose because then you have to get on a plane
- 36:55Speaker 3: and fly fifteen or his. Back SO i just feel
- 36:58Speaker 3: there's gonna be there's going to be some real hunger
- 37:01Speaker 3: to win, that even if it is just a week one.
- 37:03Speaker 3: Game but last, year, yeah down at so far that
- 37:06Speaker 3: was What week. Five Forty anders came in with a skeleton.
- 37:09Speaker 3: Crew nobody thought they had a, chance and somehow they
- 37:12Speaker 3: pulled it. Out just goes to show you THIS Nfc,
- 37:15Speaker 3: west these are, tough tough teams and even if they're
- 37:18Speaker 3: not at full, strength like the forty niners last year
- 37:20Speaker 3: they went Into philly and wan with a skeleton. Crew
- 37:23Speaker 3: and obviously The seahawks were an all time great defense last.
- 37:27Speaker 2: YEAR i mean they, were they were really.
- 37:28Speaker 3: Good so the forty nine ers, weren't weren't able to
- 37:31Speaker 3: pull that off again when they didn't have any guys
- 37:33Speaker 3: at the. End but what they did to The rams
- 37:36Speaker 3: In week five was really eye, opening and they should
- 37:39Speaker 3: be a lot healthier knock on wood. Again but For
- 37:42Speaker 3: week one against The rams this, year you, know the
- 37:45Speaker 3: WAY i look at it, is it's the big. Picture
- 37:48Speaker 3: forty Nine ers have WHAT i think is going to
- 37:51Speaker 3: be a really good offense With purdy The. Rams we
- 37:54Speaker 3: will see how quickly they settle in. Defensively they have
- 37:58Speaker 3: a lot of shiny new, pieces but but there were
- 38:00Speaker 3: big issues on that side of the ball last. Year
- 38:02Speaker 3: is that going to be something where they're awesome right
- 38:04Speaker 3: out of the gate or is that going to be
- 38:06Speaker 3: something that takes Until october Or november to turn into
- 38:09Speaker 3: a true top five. Unit we don't know the answers
- 38:12Speaker 3: to these questions. Yet other side of the, ball you,
- 38:15Speaker 3: Know stafford did it at a high level last. Year
- 38:18Speaker 3: we'll see if they could sustain that here for twenty twenty.
- 38:21Speaker 3: Six AND i think that's the big test for the
- 38:23Speaker 3: forty andars. Defense right out of bed right They warner And.
- 38:27Speaker 3: Bosa when they had those two guys last, YEAR i
- 38:30Speaker 3: Mean bosa walked off That seattle. Game he forced the
- 38:34Speaker 3: fumble Against Sam darnold In week. One he's the closer
- 38:37Speaker 3: that they missed over the majority of last. Season so
- 38:40Speaker 3: having those two guys back is. Big BUT i still
- 38:42Speaker 3: have a lot of questions about that side of the.
- 38:44Speaker 3: Ball the reason why week one is so, Exciting sherm
- 38:47Speaker 3: is because we just don't. Know they answered to a
- 38:50Speaker 3: lot of this, stuff but you could see the ingredients.
- 38:52Speaker 3: There but how's it all going to? Cook how's it
- 38:54Speaker 3: all going to play out when it's out on the field.
- 38:57Speaker 1: And you see the differences in, style in, coaching style and.
- 39:01Speaker 1: Philosophy Kyle shanahan And San francisco forty nine ers are
- 39:07Speaker 1: coming IN i think a week.
- 39:07Speaker 2: Early that's going to be crazy to.
- 39:10Speaker 1: Me and Then sean McVeigh and The rams are coming
- 39:13Speaker 1: in the day, Before like it's just it's just a normal.
- 39:16Speaker 3: Travel have you ever been on a fifteen hour? Flight,
- 39:18Speaker 3: well what's the longest flight you've been?
- 39:20Speaker 1: On i've been on a few fourteen Fourteen.
- 39:23Speaker 3: How did your body feel after like twenty four hours
- 39:26Speaker 3: after that?
- 39:27Speaker 1: Flight not LIKE i could play a football, Game not
- 39:31Speaker 1: LIKE i would want.
- 39:32Speaker 3: To SO i think that The, Rams i'm very skeptical
- 39:36Speaker 3: of their strategy because they're obviously dipping into this sports science.
- 39:41Speaker 3: Stuff BUT i think they're only focused on the time,
- 39:44Speaker 3: change and they're, saying we're just going to stay On pacific,
- 39:46Speaker 3: time and that's going to be to our. ADVANTAGE i
- 39:48Speaker 3: think they're forgetting the obvious that when you're on a
- 39:51Speaker 3: fourteen to fifteen hour, flight your body doesn't feel the
- 39:54Speaker 3: same right. AWAY i that's Maybe i'll be, wrong BUT
- 39:57Speaker 3: i think that the Forty anders are going to have
- 39:59Speaker 3: a leg up there because they're you, know they're flying
- 40:01Speaker 3: in On september, fourth a whole full week before the,
- 40:04Speaker 3: game so their body will have a chance to. RECOVER
- 40:07Speaker 3: i don't know if The rams, will but like THE
- 40:10Speaker 3: i think.
- 40:10Speaker 1: The rams are banking On they've done it a few
- 40:13Speaker 1: times and they've had. Success but It's.
- 40:15Speaker 3: London, yeah, Yeah LIKE i think that's A they might
- 40:19Speaker 3: have even flown from The east, coast So i'm not.
- 40:21Speaker 3: Sure don't quote me on, that but either, way the
- 40:23Speaker 3: most that is a ten or. Eleven that's like when
- 40:26Speaker 3: you're on one of those long. FLIGHTS i don't care
- 40:28Speaker 3: if you're on a late flat or. Whatever you look
- 40:30Speaker 3: up at ten hours and you're, LIKE i still five to.
- 40:32Speaker 2: Go it's like a whole cross.
- 40:34Speaker 3: Country on top of, That i'm, skeptical let's just put
- 40:38Speaker 3: it that.
- 40:38Speaker 1: Way i'm very. Skeptical but and you, know, again it
- 40:43Speaker 1: will be that will be criticized regardless of the. Outcome
- 40:47Speaker 1: if if The rams somehow, win people will say it's a,
- 40:51Speaker 1: myth and all the travel issues are a. Myth you
- 40:54Speaker 1: can fly in the day before and.
- 40:55Speaker 3: When THE nfl would love, that because they're, like all, right,
- 40:58Speaker 3: see like we could put a division and you know
- 41:00Speaker 3: out In, asia we can put a division In europe
- 41:03Speaker 3: and all you have to do is fly in two
- 41:04Speaker 3: hours before the, game and you're.
- 41:05Speaker 2: Fine i'm sure THE nfl would love. That but be.
- 41:09Speaker 1: Careful you're gonna start a controversy, here to start the conspiracy. Theorist,
- 41:13Speaker 1: see they said that they wanted to win so that they.
- 41:15Speaker 3: Could prove, WELL i mean, that that's another crazy. THING
- 41:19Speaker 3: i think it's. COMING i think at some point we're
- 41:21Speaker 3: gonna see it a full division In. EUROPE i Think
- 41:22Speaker 3: goodell even said as much the other. Day so wild.
- 41:26Speaker 3: Times we live in.
- 41:28Speaker 1: Very wild, times very wild. Times but that's that's ALL
- 41:32Speaker 1: i got for, you, brother we're gonna we're gonna check
- 41:34Speaker 1: you in during the. SEASON i think this was very.
- 41:36Speaker 1: FUN i hope you enjoyed. IT i look forward to
- 41:39Speaker 1: continuing these. CONVERSATIONS i think this is gonna be a
- 41:42Speaker 1: fun year for THE Nfc west and The San francisco
- 41:45Speaker 1: forty nine. Ers i'm.
- 41:46Speaker 2: Excited hell, Yeah thanks a, lot and have a good.
- 41:49Speaker 1: One
