0:00:14.120 --> 0:00:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Hello, and welcome to the forty nine Ers First and

0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:20.560
<v Speaker 1>ten Podcast, ten minutes of the most up to date

0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:23.920
<v Speaker 1>forty nine Ers news, first thing in the morning. I'm

<v Speaker 1>your host Brionna McDonald, and I'm joined by forty nine

0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:30.479
<v Speaker 1>Ers team reporter Lindsay Palares So faithful. It was a

0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:33.919
<v Speaker 1>little odd to have a weekend without forty nine Ers football,

0:00:34.280 --> 0:00:37.879
<v Speaker 1>but the team is feeling good at three and zero. Lindsay,

0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:40.839
<v Speaker 1>what was head coach Kyle Shanahan's plan for the team

0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:41.559
<v Speaker 1>this weekend.

0:00:41.800 --> 0:00:45.600
<v Speaker 2>It was considered a mini buy by all of the

0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:49.120
<v Speaker 2>players and head coach Kyle Shanahan because this is as

0:00:49.240 --> 0:00:51.960
<v Speaker 2>close to a break as this team is going to

0:00:52.000 --> 0:00:53.640
<v Speaker 2>get until the actual buy.

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:55.440
<v Speaker 1>So to have a.

0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:58.560
<v Speaker 2>Weekend off is great for the body, great for the mind.

0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:02.120
<v Speaker 2>And now the forty nine Ers entered this week with

0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:05.280
<v Speaker 2>Monday kind of working as a bonus day, So that's

0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:08.840
<v Speaker 2>where we are in terms of practice schedule and coming

0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:10.399
<v Speaker 2>off of a Thursday night game.

0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:12.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure the team will appreciate any bonus days they

0:01:12.959 --> 0:01:16.120
<v Speaker 1>can come across. Although there was no game, there was

0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:19.919
<v Speaker 1>major news with the forty nine Ers announcing multi year

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:23.720
<v Speaker 1>contract extensions for general manager John Lynch and head coach

0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:26.840
<v Speaker 1>Kyle Shanahan. Can you talk a little bit about the

0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:27.720
<v Speaker 1>move for this team.

0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:33.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, congratulations are in order for this dynamic duo. They

0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:35.440
<v Speaker 2>joined the forty nine Ers at the same time in

0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:40.440
<v Speaker 2>February of twenty seventeen, and now they're getting contract extensions together.

0:01:41.240 --> 0:01:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Great move for the organization. Head coach Kyle Shanahan and

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:49.840
<v Speaker 2>John Lynch have put together an amazing string of forty

0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:52.640
<v Speaker 2>nine Ers history. I would say, you know, they've led

0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:56.640
<v Speaker 2>the organization to the playoffs three times under these two

0:01:56.760 --> 0:02:01.800
<v Speaker 2>two NFC West Division titles reached through NFC Championship games,

0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:04.400
<v Speaker 2>and of course that trip to Super Bowl fifty four.

0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:09.440
<v Speaker 2>They've got an amazing roster stacked with talent right now.

0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:14.359
<v Speaker 2>Obviously it's very early in this season, but it's encouraging.

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:18.440
<v Speaker 2>This team's three and oh start likely or at least

0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 2>we all hope a successful season ahead. And that's a

0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:25.839
<v Speaker 2>testament to the hard work of both of these men

0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:28.919
<v Speaker 2>and the teams that they lead. They truly have put

0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:33.800
<v Speaker 2>this organization on an upward trajectory. So from what I

0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:36.840
<v Speaker 2>saw on social media as well, a lot of people

0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:39.480
<v Speaker 2>very very happy about this move for the forty nine

0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:43.000
<v Speaker 2>ers fans are happy with it, so there's gonna be

0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:46.200
<v Speaker 2>a lot of stability. Same to people heading up this

0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:50.680
<v Speaker 2>organization for many years to come. Multi year is a

0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:53.840
<v Speaker 2>little vague, but I'm gonna go ahead and say many years.

0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:58.000
<v Speaker 2>So excited to just continue this chapter with them.

0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:00.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, when we've gotten to hear the teams,

0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:03.960
<v Speaker 1>CEO Jen Yorik speak at either State of the Franchise

0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:07.160
<v Speaker 1>or at any forty nine Ers Foundation events, he's talked

0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:11.840
<v Speaker 1>so highly about how important the relationship building is and

0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:15.720
<v Speaker 1>the chemistry and trust that's been established with this leadership.

0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:19.480
<v Speaker 1>So how well does this group work together and talk

0:03:19.520 --> 0:03:21.480
<v Speaker 1>about how they really lean on each other.

0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:26.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Brie, it's been a great demonstration, like you mentioned,

0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:30.639
<v Speaker 2>of just teamwork, and you can tell that specifically head

0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:31.280
<v Speaker 2>coach Kyle.

0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:35.120
<v Speaker 3>Shanahan and John Lynch have a really good working relationship.

0:03:35.160 --> 0:03:36.960
<v Speaker 3>I think there was a really great example of that

0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:40.760
<v Speaker 3>during the draft. Both of them spoke before and after

0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:45.320
<v Speaker 3>and really emphasized the I guess, great back and forth

0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:48.720
<v Speaker 3>that they have with each other. They're not afraid to

0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:51.760
<v Speaker 3>work with each other. There's pushback when there needs to

0:03:51.800 --> 0:03:55.120
<v Speaker 3>be a lot of open dialogue, and they really lean

0:03:55.200 --> 0:03:57.760
<v Speaker 3>on each other and lean on each other's teams in

0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:02.640
<v Speaker 3>order to help compose the roster as it's happening in

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:04.920
<v Speaker 3>the draft. I think that's the best example of their

0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:07.840
<v Speaker 3>working relationship. But you can just tell they're always out

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.320
<v Speaker 3>on the field together during practices.

0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:14.040
<v Speaker 2>It's typically all smiles, and you can just see that

0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 2>there is a great working relationship as well as a

0:04:17.240 --> 0:04:17.960
<v Speaker 2>great friendship.

0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:19.640
<v Speaker 1>They've been together at.

0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 2>This organization for now six years and will be for

0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:26.800
<v Speaker 2>the foreseeable future, So yes, a great working relationship there.

0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:30.200
<v Speaker 2>And then also you add in CEO Jed York, and

0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:32.640
<v Speaker 2>I think it's just more of the same. There is

0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:36.000
<v Speaker 2>a lot of healthy back and forth and they've done

0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:38.320
<v Speaker 2>a really good job working together because you're seeing the

0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:40.960
<v Speaker 2>team that has materialized on the field here in twenty

0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:41.560
<v Speaker 2>twenty three.

0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:43.960
<v Speaker 1>And you know, one story that comes to mind when

0:04:44.000 --> 0:04:47.799
<v Speaker 1>I think about the relationship between John, Kyle and Jed

0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.960
<v Speaker 1>was John talking about how he went to Jed during

0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:55.160
<v Speaker 1>free agency about the signing of Javon Hargrave and how

0:04:55.279 --> 0:04:57.640
<v Speaker 1>he knew that this was going to be a major

0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:00.279
<v Speaker 1>move for the team, and so when he got the

0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:03.560
<v Speaker 1>instant trust from Jed and Kyle we've already seen that

0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:06.919
<v Speaker 1>materialize in the beginning of the season. So this team

0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:09.800
<v Speaker 1>of leadership for the forty nine ers has been so

0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.360
<v Speaker 1>amazing for the past couple of years of forty nine

0:05:12.440 --> 0:05:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Ers history, and super excited to see what's to come

0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:17.680
<v Speaker 1>for them. We got a little post game conference call

0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:21.040
<v Speaker 1>from head coach Kyle Shanahan after the Thursday night football game,

0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:23.880
<v Speaker 1>So let's talk a little bit more about what's to come.

0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:26.039
<v Speaker 1>What are the injury updates you heard from that call.

0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:28.520
<v Speaker 2>So it sounds like the three injuries that we had

0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:33.159
<v Speaker 2>emerged from that Thursday night game, they don't sound too severe.

0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:38.080
<v Speaker 2>So we have linebacker Dre Greenlaw linebacker Demetrius Flanagan Fowls

0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:41.520
<v Speaker 2>both dealing with ankle injuries. They were considered day to

0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 2>day following that game. And then also wide receiver Deebo Samuel.

0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 2>We saw him go down on the field. It looked

0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:50.800
<v Speaker 2>like he got the wind knocked out of him. It's

0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:54.320
<v Speaker 2>an apparent rib injury. He's also being considered day to day.

0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:57.680
<v Speaker 2>I think with the long weekend, that's obviously great for

0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:00.120
<v Speaker 2>the body to be able to take some time off.

0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:04.040
<v Speaker 2>We will hear from head coach Kyle Shanahan on Wednesday,

0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:06.599
<v Speaker 2>so we will get the full injury update on there,

0:06:06.600 --> 0:06:09.080
<v Speaker 2>but headed into the weekend, that's where those three players were.

0:06:09.200 --> 0:06:12.880
<v Speaker 1>And after breaking down the film, Kyle Shanahan highlighted some

0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:17.480
<v Speaker 1>standout performances from that Thursday night football game. First off,

0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:20.400
<v Speaker 1>how did quarterback brock pretty handle those blitzes from the

0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:22.839
<v Speaker 1>New York Giants defense? What did Kyle Shanahan think of

0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:23.560
<v Speaker 1>his performance?

0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think initial reaction was he did a good job,

0:06:27.120 --> 0:06:30.359
<v Speaker 2>and then after reviewing the game tape, Shanahan said that

0:06:30.400 --> 0:06:32.839
<v Speaker 2>he was even more impressed with him. Was exactly what

0:06:32.920 --> 0:06:37.159
<v Speaker 2>he said. So I saw on PFF that it was

0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 2>thirty seven of forty three passing plays. Some of those

0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:45.760
<v Speaker 2>gotten nullified by penalties, they were blitzed on, and so

0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:50.480
<v Speaker 2>that is a crazy high number. Party handled it well.

0:06:50.560 --> 0:06:53.839
<v Speaker 2>Obviously wasn't one hundred percent on his game and the

0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:57.000
<v Speaker 2>offense wasn't quite flowing in that first portion of the game,

0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:00.520
<v Speaker 2>but they figured it out by really late in the

0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:04.359
<v Speaker 2>second quarter, had a couple touchdowns before the half, and

0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:08.760
<v Speaker 2>Purdy was averaging his fastest throwing time of his career.

0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:12.760
<v Speaker 2>Next Gen stats had him at two point three four seconds,

0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:16.080
<v Speaker 2>so he was getting the ball out quickly in response

0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:20.080
<v Speaker 2>to all that blitzing. So again, just a tremendous effort

0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:24.880
<v Speaker 2>by the offense rock Purty to beat that really heavy

0:07:24.920 --> 0:07:26.680
<v Speaker 2>blitzing by the Giants.

0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:29.240
<v Speaker 1>And sticking with the forty nine Ers offense, running back

0:07:29.280 --> 0:07:32.800
<v Speaker 1>Christian McCaffrey has dominated the forty nine Ers run game

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:35.920
<v Speaker 1>for the beginning of the season and honestly, the faithful

0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 1>haven't expected anything else. But how did Kash Shanahan feel

0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:42.360
<v Speaker 1>about the running back rotation and Thursday Night Football?

0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:45.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think the big emphasis going into Thursday Night

0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:48.680
<v Speaker 2>was yes, CMC is amazing, Yes he's going to get

0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:52.320
<v Speaker 2>his touches, but there needed to be exactly what you said,

0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:56.240
<v Speaker 2>a running back rotation. So we did see Elijah Mitchell

0:07:56.360 --> 0:08:00.560
<v Speaker 2>get his first significant snaps of the season against the Rams.

0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:02.880
<v Speaker 2>He didn't see the field at all, so he finished

0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:06.160
<v Speaker 2>that game with eleven carries for forty two yards and

0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:09.280
<v Speaker 2>I do believe he had a couple catches for some

0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:12.600
<v Speaker 2>short yardage as well. So he was happy with how

0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:16.160
<v Speaker 2>that rotation when obviously that's good for Christian McCaffrey just

0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:19.440
<v Speaker 2>to continue to keep his legs fresh and when you

0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:21.600
<v Speaker 2>have the talent in your running back room to have

0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:23.440
<v Speaker 2>that rotation, there's no reason not to.

0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:28.080
<v Speaker 1>Now, breaking down the defence's game against the Giants on Thursday,

0:08:28.840 --> 0:08:32.360
<v Speaker 1>Kyle was asked, was this the best you've seen defensive

0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:36.800
<v Speaker 1>lineman Javon Kinlaw play? And Kyle responded yes, because it's

0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:39.720
<v Speaker 1>the healthiest. So what did you think about Javon Kinlaw's

0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:41.600
<v Speaker 1>performance and why did it shine so bright?

0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:43.959
<v Speaker 4>To Kyle Shanahan, Yeah, I think I'm going to echo

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:49.600
<v Speaker 4>exactly what Shanahan said, and also what raining ap NFL

0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:52.000
<v Speaker 4>Defensive Player of the Year Nick Bosa said that this

0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:56.280
<v Speaker 4>is absolutely the best that they have seen Javon Kinlaw play.

0:08:56.360 --> 0:08:59.400
<v Speaker 2>The forty nine Ers did incorporate a five man front

0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:03.360
<v Speaker 2>on some plays against the Giants, and that actually was

0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:07.360
<v Speaker 2>a very successful move by the defense. And again, both

0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:13.080
<v Speaker 2>of Shanahan and Nick Bosa attributed that elevation in Javon

0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:16.720
<v Speaker 2>Kinlaw's game to simply him being healthy and having a

0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:20.160
<v Speaker 2>really good off season. So I think this year we

0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:22.920
<v Speaker 2>heard a lot about Drake Jackson training in the off season,

0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:25.960
<v Speaker 2>and the same goes for Javon Kinlaw. He spent a

0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:29.480
<v Speaker 2>majority of his time here in Santa Clara, training with

0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:32.120
<v Speaker 2>the staff here and I think you're seeing the early

0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:35.520
<v Speaker 2>returns on that. Now he's feeling good, he's feeling healthy.

0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:38.839
<v Speaker 2>He said, his body's never felt better, and yeah, now

0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:40.760
<v Speaker 2>you're seeing that on the on the field play.

0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:43.080
<v Speaker 1>I the first thing highlighted from that game was Tshan

0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:46.520
<v Speaker 1>Gibson Senior and Kyle talked about how important he is

0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:48.839
<v Speaker 1>on the field, but not just in the game on

0:09:48.880 --> 0:09:51.080
<v Speaker 1>the field, but also in the locker room. Can you

0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:54.040
<v Speaker 1>talk about what kind of leadership he brings to this team.

0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:58.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Tashan Gibson Senior has earned the name of Dad.

0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:00.520
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not sure if that's just for the defense

0:10:00.559 --> 0:10:03.880
<v Speaker 2>for the entire team, but think of him like that.

0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:06.839
<v Speaker 2>You know, he has just been a tremendous addition for

0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:07.960
<v Speaker 2>the forty nine ers.

0:10:08.360 --> 0:10:10.160
<v Speaker 1>He was a late ad of.

0:10:10.080 --> 0:10:10.960
<v Speaker 3>Twenty twenty two.

0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:13.840
<v Speaker 2>I believe he came just before the start of the

0:10:13.880 --> 0:10:18.079
<v Speaker 2>regular season. And in twenty twenty two, if you remember,

0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:21.360
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy Ward had that hamstring injury that kept him out

0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:23.760
<v Speaker 2>the first four weeks of the season and that opened

0:10:23.760 --> 0:10:27.120
<v Speaker 2>the door for to Sean Gibson to really make a

0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:30.120
<v Speaker 2>mark on this team, and he did. He closed out

0:10:30.160 --> 0:10:34.040
<v Speaker 2>the year as the team's interception leader with five picks,

0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:38.319
<v Speaker 2>and just in general has been a really great veteran presence,

0:10:38.640 --> 0:10:41.360
<v Speaker 2>not just for the safeties but for the entire defensive

0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:42.120
<v Speaker 2>back group.

0:10:42.480 --> 0:10:43.679
<v Speaker 1>He's earned high.

0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:47.480
<v Speaker 2>Praise not just from Kyle Shanahan but also Talano Hufunga

0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:51.120
<v Speaker 2>mentioned that he was a big portion and a big

0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:54.040
<v Speaker 2>reason why he was able to get a Pro Bowl

0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:57.520
<v Speaker 2>nod and an All Pro nod as well in his

0:10:57.600 --> 0:11:00.840
<v Speaker 2>second season. He's been a huge mentor to him. And

0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:03.240
<v Speaker 2>so really, I think you only hear good things about

0:11:03.280 --> 0:11:06.600
<v Speaker 2>Tshaan Gibson Senior, and you know they have to give

0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:09.240
<v Speaker 2>him his reps off to keep him fresh this year.

0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:12.960
<v Speaker 2>But he's a very very highly touted player in that

0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.679
<v Speaker 2>room and hoping to see a lot more picks from

0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:16.920
<v Speaker 2>him in twenty twenty.

0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Three, and faithful you can see gibbs leadership shine and

0:11:20.360 --> 0:11:23.439
<v Speaker 1>what the chemistry and dynamic is like in that defensive

0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:27.440
<v Speaker 1>backfield on the forty nine Ers miked up videos on

0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.920
<v Speaker 1>YouTube and forty nine ers dot com because you get

0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:31.920
<v Speaker 1>to see the little intricacies of what they talk about

0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:34.280
<v Speaker 1>during a game and it's really fun to see. But

0:11:34.640 --> 0:11:36.600
<v Speaker 1>that will do it for today. Thank you. So much
