1 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:10,240 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Forts You've Got Bill podcast, presented 2 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: by Nandscape. I'm really excited to be joined by former 3 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:17,680 Speaker 1: NFL quarterback and current CBS NFL analysts Trent Green. Trent, 4 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,759 Speaker 1: how are you doing? How is uh quarantine and COVID 5 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,799 Speaker 1: doing while you're handling your job calling these games? Well, 6 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: it's it's definitely changed the landscape of broadcasting, just like 7 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: it's changed everything else in our in our world. Um, 8 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 1: it's it's changed our routine. You know, I'm so used 9 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 1: to Uh Normally, as a broadcaster, you go into the 10 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 1: home city on Friday, you go to the building in 11 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: the complex, you watch practice, you meet with the coaches 12 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: and players. You basically spend most of the day there 13 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: with them, and and now everything's on zoom. I'm uh, 14 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: you know I won't travel until later on Friday. Um, 15 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: we have to get there in time to get a 16 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: COVID test. We have to get we have to get 17 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: tested every Friday at the hotel. L Um, they have 18 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: windows of time that we can get that done. Uh. 19 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: And then and then Saturday, we're basically quarantined to our 20 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,680 Speaker 1: hotel rooms, whereas we would normally go visit with the 21 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: visiting team on Saturdays when they got to the hotel. 22 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: None of that, None of that happens anymore. So everything's 23 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: done by zoom and UH. And then you go to 24 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,320 Speaker 1: the game and and you know, it's it's different broadcasting 25 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: the game without fans that you know, the fans in 26 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,479 Speaker 1: the stand stands make the experience. I tell people all 27 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: the time pre covid, if you ever get a chance 28 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: to to watch an NFL game live, UH, it's just 29 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: a really cool experience. And UH, we try and do 30 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: the best that we can with the broadcast part of it. 31 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: And obviously I've been in TV and broadcasting for a 32 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: long time and there's a great uh presentation that we 33 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: can make um from that from that standpoint, but I 34 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: think just the game day experience, which we try and 35 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: convey through the broadcast is something that's pretty special and 36 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: unique and and hopefully we get back to that soon. 37 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: Can't wait to get back to some type of normalcy. 38 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: But you brought up fans and fans being in the stadium, 39 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: fans being in the building. I think this Sunday will 40 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: be the first time the forty Niners outside of their 41 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: game in New Orleans. But they have forty fans in 42 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: the stand, So I know these guys are probably anxious 43 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: just to kind of hear some kind of crowd and 44 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: have some kind of interaction. But let's let's talk about 45 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: this game. Before the season, this was an anticipated interdivisional 46 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: rivalry between two promising teams. Now injuries have ravished both 47 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: rosters in a number of key positions. This rivalry dates 48 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: back to the seventies, then it renewed in the nineties. 49 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm talking to Jerry Rice, Dion Sanders, Troy Aikman days. 50 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,679 Speaker 1: What do you make of now this matchup that it's 51 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: not what we saw or what we thought it would be, 52 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: let's say, back in August, but here we are. You know, 53 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: it's this is two teams that have dealt with very 54 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: similar seasons. They dealt with a lot of injuries. Both 55 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: their starting quarterbacks are hurt. A number of key players 56 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: on both sides are hurt. Uh. They haven't quite had 57 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: the season from a record standpoint that they thought they 58 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: would have and and they thought they would both be 59 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: getting ready for the playoffs and and making that playoff push, 60 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 1: and it just hasn't worked out that way. It's it's 61 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: been an unusual year. For a lot of teams because 62 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: of COVID and the protocols that you have to go through. Um, 63 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: these two teams are no different. It's it's just an 64 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: ongoing challenge. And then you add to the fact that 65 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: that they're both dealing with some major injuries to keep 66 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: position players. Uh, it does it makes it It makes 67 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: it difficult. Um. Going back from a historical standpoint, though, 68 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: I agree with you this this rivalry and this this background. Um, 69 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: you know, for me, I know what you said, it 70 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: goes back to the seventies. For me, uh, starting or 71 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: getting my first year in the NFL would have been 72 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: the ninety three season. And really, if you think of 73 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: like the main rivalry in the n SEE that was 74 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: going on in the nineties, it was, you know, it 75 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: was the Niners and the Cowboys. It was they were, 76 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: you know, the few times that would face in the 77 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: regular season, it was a big deal and they usually 78 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: ended up playing, you know, in the playoffs, and many 79 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: times it was in the NFC championship games. So there's 80 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: so much historical value to this, to this series and 81 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: to this matchup, and and I'm looking forward to calling it. 82 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 1: I know. Kevin Harland, my partner in the booth, is 83 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: is looking forward to calling it and uh, we're gonna 84 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 1: bring up some of those old stories because this rivalry 85 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: is very deep rooted and and a lot of great 86 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 1: talent and Hall of Famers on both sides.

But for those that 93 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: are listening, believe it or not, Uh, Trent, And it 94 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 1: still blows my mind when I think about this. If 95 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: I'm not mistaking, all six team NFC teams are somehow 96 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: magically still in the running for the postseason. Yes, I didn't. 97 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: I didn't. I was wrong in saying they're both out 98 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 1: of it and they're getting ready for the playoffs. They 99 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: are both mathematically still alive. But yeah, there's a there's 100 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: a lot of things that have to happen for that. 101 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: So I know they're disappointed with how it's unfolded. But 102 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: but yes, there's there is still a chance it might 103 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 1: be grim. But many fans, especially for Menners fans, they've 104 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 1: already set their attention to the draft. But let's look 105 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,720 Speaker 1: at this whole NFC picture. What is surprised you most 106 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: this year? Uh so, So the biggest thing that's that's 107 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: probably surprised me out of the NFC is is what's 108 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: going on, you know, in the NFC East, the fact 109 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: that we're this deep into the season and uh, and 110 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: there's nobody that has a winning record. I don't think 111 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: anybody would have thought that was going to be the case. 112 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: I think NFC was really shook up in the off 113 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: season when when Tom Brady jump conferences and and so 114 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: that of course made the NFC South a an area 115 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: that that people were focusing on the fact that the 116 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: the forty Niners represented the NFC in the Super Bowl 117 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 1: a year ago. I think that division is as strong, 118 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: if not the strongest, in the NFC when you look 119 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: at it from top to bottom. Uh, you know what 120 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: Arizona is doing and and the Rams it's uh in Seattle, 121 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: of course, it's it's it's got to be the toughest 122 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: top to bottom division out there. So but from a 123 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: shocking standpoint, I would say the biggest thing that UH 124 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: jumped in my mind was was what's going on in 125 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: the NFC East. Absolutely, I think a lot of us 126 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: are surprised, especially you know, looking at the potential of 127 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: a team being under five hundred with the opportunity to 128 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: make it into the postseason. Now it's also a long 129 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: shot for San Francisco, but stranger things have happened. But 130 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: still the forty Niners are looking at Kittle. He made 131 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: his return to practice this week. Shanahan, I at least 132 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: another week for Jimmy. Fans are torn. Some just want 133 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: them to rest up for next year, but some hope that, 134 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: you know, maybe with a week fifteen victory they come 135 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: back to the field. What do you make of this situation? 136 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: You know, I think that's the balancing act that you 137 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: have to do as a as a head coach and 138 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: as a general manager and as a decision maker from 139 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: a personnel standpoint, is at what point in time you 140 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: don't want to risk long term injury. You don't want 141 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: to if either player comes back too soon, if they 142 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: end up getting injured again, that it ultimately UH causes 143 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: them to have, uh maybe a surgery in the off 144 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: season or something that's going to affect preparing and getting 145 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: ready for next year. But you also, from the mathematical standpoint, 146 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: like we talked about, you don't want to completely give 147 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: up on this season in terms of playing your star players. 148 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: So I think the biggest decision for the forty Ninalds 149 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: will be if they think that George can come back. 150 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: And from everything I understand about his injury, it's a 151 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: lot less severe than than what Jimmy's dealing with that 152 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: that if he can come back, and knowing the type 153 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: of person, the type of player that George Kittle is, 154 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: he he's going to do everything that he possibly can 155 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: to get back on the field. And uh, as as 156 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: far as Jimmy is concerned, UM, I think because his 157 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: injury was more severe, they're gonna be they're gonna be 158 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: more cautious with it. Uh in terms of given the 159 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: prospect of potentially re injuring it heading into the offseason. Uh, 160 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: if that's ultimately the direction that they go. So I 161 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: just think there's that there's that fine line there if 162 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 1: you're a coach, trainer, team doctor, GM trying to make 163 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: those decisions, um, you know, in terms of jeopardizing uh, 164 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: potentially even next year.

So, Trent, you are getting ready to head 169 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 1: out to Dallas, so we can't keep you too long, 170 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 1: but I've got one more for you, being that you 171 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: are a former NFL quarterback or both the forty Niners 172 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 1: and Cowboys are without their starting qbs. We just talked 173 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: about Jimmy Garoppolo a little bit, but Kyle shannah And said, 174 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: despite Nick Mullins's recent struggles, he plans to keep him 175 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 1: under center in week fifteen. Now, as a former quarterback 176 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: of fifteen seasons, what have you made of Nick Mullins 177 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: any takeaways from his standing performance this year? You know, 178 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: the thing is is anytime you get an opportunity, So 179 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: when you're a backup quarterback, and I was a backup 180 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: quarterback for years and years before I finally got an 181 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: opportunity to be a starter. And you know, anytime you're 182 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: a backup quarterback. Every time you're on the field, you're auditioning. 183 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: You're auditioning for your own team, number one, to keep 184 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: your job. You're auditioning for other teams because if you 185 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: do well enough and the team that you're on is 186 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: solidified at the quarterback position, you're auditioning for other teams 187 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: to potentially go somewhere else and be a starter there. 188 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: So you have to take that up roach and and 189 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: everything I've learned about about Nick this week is that, uh, 190 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 1: you know, he's very detail oriented, he's very hard working. 191 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: He wants to do the right thing. He wants to 192 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: work at his craft. We talked to him about some 193 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: of the things he does in the offseason and how 194 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: he approaches the offseason to try and make his game better. 195 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: The questions he asked the study that he does the 196 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: physical part of it, the mental part of it. So 197 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 1: he's doing, you know, everything that you would want a 198 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 1: quarterback or or a backup to try and do. Now 199 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 1: the other thing is getting it to transfer from meeting room, 200 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: practice field, walk through onto the game field. And I 201 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: think we've seen flashes of that since he's been in 202 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: there as the starter. And I think the biggest hurdle 203 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: for him is to now get some consistency. I thought 204 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: a week ago there were some things that he did 205 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: really well that his teammates around him didn't help him with. 206 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 1: There were there were too many drop passes, there were 207 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: times where the protection wasn't good enough. Uh, and then 208 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: there were times where he just miss throws. So uh. 209 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: An offensive unit all has to work together, quarterback being 210 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: the main piece of that. But you all have to 211 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: be on the same page and working in the same direction. 212 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: And I think if he can get a level of consistency, 213 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: then he's shown not only to himself but to his 214 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 1: team into potentially other teams that that he could be 215 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: that guy that you lean on. The talent is there. Uh, 216 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: it's just you have to be considered. This job is 217 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: about being consistent. I you know, I used to tell 218 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: that to young players all the time when I was playing. 219 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: I said, hey, you had a good game. You know, congratulations, 220 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: you had a good game. Now back it up. You 221 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: got to do another good game. Uh, and and and 222 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: and some players situations and say you had a good 223 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: series and they got back it up with another good series, 224 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: or you're backing up with a good half backing up 225 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: with game back to back game games. It's UM and 226 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: then you ultimately want to get to the point where 227 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: you have the consistency where you're backing it up year 228 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: to year to year, and then ultimately, if you can 229 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 1: make that, then you then you you know, you get 230 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 1: to have a long career. So I think Nick has 231 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: all the tools. I think now it's just a matter 232 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: of getting that consistent play out of him um series 233 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: by series, quarter by quarter, half by half, and and 234 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: ultimately game by game. If anybody knows about this, you 235 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 1: would be the perfect person to talk about Nick Mullins 236 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 1: under center. As forty Niners head to Dallas, it feels 237 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: like just another series of road games for the forty Niners, 238 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: but in week fifteen, looking to end their own moving streak. Trent, 239 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: I appreciate you stopping by You've Got Mail podcast.
