1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:05,440
Speaker 1: Matt Jones, who Mac Jones? Who Mac Jones? Two A

2
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 1: one three, three oh eight zero zero four.

3
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 2: You had to hit Mike mac Jones up on the

4
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 2: low because again mac Jones is about to blow. Welcome

5
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 2: back to the Richard Sherman Podcast. And as you can see,

6
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 2: I'm still on the road. But I had to react

7
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 2: to that Niners win last night and Levi South Bang

8
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 2: bang Matt ten got it done again three and oh

9
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 2: now in his starts, what more can you say?

10
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 1: I can say a ton no George Kittle, no Brock Perdy.

11
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 2: No Brandon Ayuk. I mean, the list goes on. Nicholas

12
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 2: john Bosa injured for the season.

13
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: What do we do? We get it done? I set

14
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: in the meetings.

15
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 2: I set in the meetings with the team and the

16
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 2: defense the night before because we just happened to say,

17
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 2: at the same hotel, which was really cool, and it

18
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 2: was an incredible message Kyle gave to the team about resilience,

19
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:16,479
Speaker 2: accountability and just finishing, having energy, winning energy and winning

20
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 2: focus to the last play. They had every intention of

21
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 2: winning this game. This wasn't a game where they felt like,

22
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 2: oh man, you know, oh the Rams are up here

23
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 2: and we don't have a chance and we can't get

24
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 2: this done. He thought we had enough guys to get

25
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 2: it done. He said, we have enough to get this done.

26
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 2: He knew the task, and the team knew the task.

27
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 2: The young defense knew the task, and they were up

28
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 2: to the task. Fred Warner, another great game by him.

29
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 2: D Winters, you know, the guys played great. I think

30
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 2: in the secondary, Ronaldo Green played a really really solid

31
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 2: game up the stout went out with the injury, but

32
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: I thought he was good. Diamador made a huge PBu

33
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 2: late in the game against Pooking the cool that really

34
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 2: really could have could have been disastrous.

35
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: That could have been a game ender right there.

36
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 2: There were so many plays where the momentum could have shifted,

37
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 2: uh and and and put the San Francisco forty nine

38
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 2: ers away, but they would not stop fighting. And I

39
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 2: remember there was a narrative around these young draft picks like,

40
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 2: oh man, they're they're not doing great enough in training camp.

41
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 1: They're too high.

42
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:24,959
Speaker 2: You know, I'm not seeing the things I need to

43
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 2: see in a preseason game. Well you're seeing them now.

44
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 2: You are seeing them right now before your eyes, and

45
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 2: real life. This is multiple weeks were a rookie. A

46
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 2: rookie player impacted the winning in a huge way. It

47
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 2: was up and stout with a with a PBu with

48
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 2: a late uh PBu against the the Arizona Cardinals. And

49
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 2: this week it's Alfred Collins with a game saving force

50
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 2: fumble at the goal line. I mean, Robert Salah is

51
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 2: from the the Pete Carroll Tree. From the tree and

52
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 2: they say, hey, if you give us an inch, will

53
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 2: protect it. So if you no matter what, if there's

54
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 2: a if there's space between the end zone and the ball,

55
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 2: we must protect it. And that's exactly what he did.

56
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 2: He protected the end zone, took the ball away. I

57
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 2: was talking to Fred warning and Fred thought the crowd

58
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 2: was cheering because because they scored, because Gyron Williams that scored,

59
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 2: not because.

60
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: Of a fumble. But he should have known it was

61
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: because of a fumble.

62
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 2: Because San Francisco forty nine Ers fans were the loudest

63
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 2: in the building. They were allowed the entire game and

64
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 2: it was incredible to see. But let's turn around to

65
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 2: the offensive side of the ball. Because Matt Jones who

66
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 2: Matt Jones who? Mac Jones two A one three, three

67
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 2: zero eight zero zero four. You had to hit Mike

68
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: mac Jones up on the low because again Matt Jones

69
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 2: is about to blow. He got a little banged up

70
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 2: in the game, he continued to fight, continued to show toughness,

71
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 2: incredible talent, UH poise.

72
00:03:58,680 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: Football IQ.

73
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 2: I mean, he played an incredible game, and I think

74
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan called a masterful game.

75
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: You could see he was deep in his bag in

76
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: this game.

77
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 2: You saw double reverse passes, you saw a fake double

78
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 2: screen scene pass. You saw he put out all the stops.

79
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 2: I had never seen Kyle Shanahan go goal line and

80
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 2: then expand, expand and throw a pass. That was New

81
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: England Patriots with Tom Brady and Greg Kowski and Aaron

82
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 2: Hernandez when they used to come goal line, get you

83
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 2: get the defense in the personnel they wanted him in

84
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 2: and then expand and go attack the mismatch. That was masterful.

85
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 2: That was I always see more of that. And then

86
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 2: we got to talk about KB and these receivers. We

87
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 2: of course got to talk about Christian McCaffrey in an

88
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 2: incredible plays he made, but that's expected. He had a

89
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 2: lot of touches. He had one hundred touches coming into

90
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 2: this game, and he's done a lot with him. This

91
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 2: team would not be in a position they are without

92
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey and everything he But he's a former Offensive

93
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: Player of the Year and that's the expectation from him.

94
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 1: He looks healthy, he looks good.

95
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,159
Speaker 2: They're gonna have to give Brian Robinson a few more carries,

96
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 2: just to give Christian McCarey. Christian McCaffrey a little bit

97
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 2: of rest. CMC is human being. You need to you know,

98
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 2: he can't carry that the entire season. But he's done

99
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 2: a phenomenal job. But there was a lot of conversation

100
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 2: and I was critical of KP and his drop.

101
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: He was critical.

102
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan was critical of him in the meeting, saying, hey,

103
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 2: you can't have it. You can't have it. We need

104
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 2: better and I know you're better than that. I know

105
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 2: who you are. I know you won't do it again.

106
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 2: I know you won't make that mistake again. And he

107
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 2: had the game of his life ten catches for one

108
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 2: hundred and forty two yards and may play after play

109
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 2: after play when they needed to have it. Sure, you

110
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 2: had the third down drop on third and five. And

111
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 2: he's gonna be hard on himself about that. Play, but

112
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,679
Speaker 2: they're not in this game and winning this game without

113
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 2: Kendrick Born playing the way he did, and I think

114
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 2: he played like the best receiver on the field. He

115
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 2: was the most productive receiver on the field for either

116
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 2: team uh in this game.

117
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 1: And I think he deserves praise.

118
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 2: Did the same way we we, you know, push criticism

119
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: on players and say, man, you you freaking suck, and

120
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 2: then you're the worst and do all this.

121
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: You gotta give him praise.

122
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 2: Man, the man looked at himself in the mirror, said, hey,

123
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 2: you gotta be better on a short riak, came back

124
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 2: and rectified it, rectified in a big way. And you

125
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 2: love to freaking see it now. Four and one, top

126
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 2: of the NFC West, three to zero in the Division half.

127
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 2: The division games are already played and done, and you've

128
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 2: won them without a lot of your star players, without

129
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 2: George Kittle. When he comes back, it's gonna be it's

130
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 2: gonna take it to another level. You gotta think this

131
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,119
Speaker 2: Rams team just took the Super Bowl champs to the wire.

132
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 2: It took a block field goal for them to win

133
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: that game. For for the Equals to to beat the Rams,

134
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 2: they they just has to be a four to zero

135
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 2: Indianapolis team, Like, this is a really good Texans defense.

136
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 2: They played against and won that game. They found ways

137
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 2: to win, and they're really talented. They got two of

138
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 2: the best receivers in the National Football League. So this

139
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 2: isn't just a oh man like a divisional win and

140
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 2: you'd be happy about it. This is a coach of

141
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 2: the year signature performance for Kyle Shanahan, and you got

142
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 2: to treat it that way. Not that Shane Stiking of

143
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 2: the Indianapolis coach doesn't deserve consideration, no question about it.

144
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 2: Mike McDonald and Seattle, no question about it, coaching his

145
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 2: butt off. But for Kyle Shanahan to come in here

146
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 2: with the receivers he started with. He I think they

147
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 2: said this is the most yards for players not on

148
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 2: the roster on the initial fifty three man roster in

149
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 2: the history of the National Football League or twenty years

150
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 2: or something. It's been a long time since a team

151
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 2: has relied so heavily on guys that they did not

152
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 2: have on the initial fifty three man roster. And Kyle

153
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 2: Shanahan does not make excuses for anything. He does not

154
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 2: say a man, we're too injured, and man, that's that's

155
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 2: why we shouldn't be winning. He just finds a way

156
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 2: to win. And I know there's been some criticism of him,

157
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 2: and it's these injuries. I don't know what the answer is.

158
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 2: I really don't. I wish I could tell you, Hey,

159
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 2: I know the answer. They need to should do a

160
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 2: B and C. And I know everybody has their opinion,

161
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 2: but it's not anywhere near as simple as hey, let's

162
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 2: replace the training staff. It's not I'm not sure that's

163
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 2: the answer, because they've done that. Let's replace the strength

164
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 2: and conditioning staff. I'm not sure that's the answer because

165
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 2: they've done that. Let's let's just change the grass, Let's

166
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 2: change the field. Let's let's bring some more people in

167
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 2: to study this. They've done that, I promise you. There's

168
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 2: new people in the they have new positions, they have

169
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 2: a new medical staff, they have a new person in

170
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 2: charge of studying the injuries and the rehabs and and everything.

171
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 2: It's just the most unfortunate luck in the history of

172
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 2: the National Football League.

173
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: But again, it gets.

174
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 2: It gets to a point that you see how depleted

175
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 2: this team is, but you get to understand and appreciate

176
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan's brilliance and his play calling, his coaching, because

177
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 2: I think sometimes you lose sight of that and you

178
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 2: don't appreciate what he's been able to do over these

179
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 2: nine years in San Francisco. But games like this where

180
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 2: it looks like there's no chance this team, there's no

181
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 2: way in hail this team wins this game, and they do,

182
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 2: then you get a respect and appreciation for him. Robert Salah,

183
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 2: this young draft class. They have to depend so heavily

184
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 2: on young guys, but they're well coached and they're getting

185
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 2: it done weekend and week out. They got a tough

186
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 2: schedule coming up. They got the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It's

187
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 2: weird because it seems like one week the Seattle Seahawks

188
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 2: have have an opponent that the San Francisco forty Niners

189
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 2: are going to play, and then vice versa. Obviously they're

190
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 2: in the same division, so they're going to see smilar opponents.

191
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 2: But it's happening really close in this schedule. It's really,

192
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 2: in my in my opinion, unique, but man, so excited

193
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 2: for this team. When they get healthy, they're going to

194
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 2: be a Super Bowl contender. If you're wondering faithful whether

195
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 2: they're going to be in my top five. They are,

196
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 2: They will be in my top five next week. I'm

197
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 2: not sure exactly the number they're going to be. But

198
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 2: when you can come in with a backup quarterback, backup

199
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 2: receivers who are who are third and sometimes fourth string,

200
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 2: backup tight ends, backups on the defensive side, missing your

201
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 2: star former defensive player of the year, and come out

202
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 2: and win a tough divisional game against a contender, a

203
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 2: true contender with a veteran quarterback, and Matthew Stafford who

204
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 2: had one of the most absurd throws going opposite thrown

205
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 2: across to two two hat well that I've seen in

206
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 2: a very long time, just showed silly arm talent and

207
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 2: silly ridiculous talent from him. Just I mean, I know

208
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 2: we always talk about these young guys, Patrick Mahomes and

209
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 2: Josh Allen and what they've done, but Matthew Safford has

210
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 2: been doing it for a long time and it's still

211
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 2: doing it at a high level, and.

212
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: We we just got to acknowledge that. We gotta acknowledge

213
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: that Matthew Stafford is still doing it big.

214
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 2: But congrats to Mac Jones, Congrats to the San Francisco

215
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 2: forty nineers. Just a huge game, a huge win. Faithful,

216
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 2: you should feel really good about this team. These young

217
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 2: these young d limen, these young players on defense will

218
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 2: only get better, They'll only get healthier. I think there's

219
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 2: a chance John Lynch makes a move for another veteran

220
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 2: pass rusher. I'm not sure it'll be as big of

221
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 2: a splash as as people are projecting, or people are

222
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 2: hoping for, because they don't want to get more salary

223
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 2: cap issues. I mean, they have enough of them right

224
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 2: now with the amount of dead money that they have,

225
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 2: so the players they've had to let go. But they'll

226
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 2: get healthier, they'll get better. And of course brock Perty

227
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 2: is still the number one quarterback. He's still number one.

228
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 2: Mac Jones understands that Kyle Shanahan obviously understands that John

229
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 2: Lynch stands that in the outside world needs to understand

230
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 2: that there's gonna be no QB controversy. There's gonna be

231
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 2: I don't think there's a chance that brock Perty's healthy

232
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 2: and he's not the number one quarterback.

233
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: I think that'd be absurd.

234
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,479
Speaker 2: But do I think that this gives the San Francisco

235
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 2: forty nine ers peace of mind to let brock Purty

236
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 2: heal in totality and not rush him back like they

237
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 2: did like they had to do for the Jacksonville Jaguars game,

238
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 2: No question about it. I think he sits for at

239
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 2: least three or four more weeks just because of how

240
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 2: irritated it got after that game. You don't want to

241
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 2: have those issues lingering through the playoffs or through late

242
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 2: in the season and have these conversations. Obviously, they feel

243
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 2: better and better about mac Jones as he plays. He's

244
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 2: making himself a ton of money. But I don't think

245
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 2: there's any kind of QB controversy. I think there's gonna

246
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 2: be QB controversy these other places when he becomes a

247
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 2: free agent, because he looks like a first round pick

248
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 2: right there was there were there were a speculation that

249
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 2: Kyles Shanahan preferred mac Jones in the draft and he

250
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 2: was gonna draft him, and I thought a lot of

251
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 2: people didn't didn't like that move.

252
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 1: They didn't like that suggestion.

253
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 2: They didn't like especially at at three, and he didn't

254
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 2: pick him to his credite pick, Trey Lance.

255
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: It didn't work out.

256
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 2: Trey Lance looks pretty good out there in LA backing

257
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: up justin Herbert. But now you're getting a chance to

258
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 2: see what Mac Jones would look like in a Kyle

259
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 2: Shanahan system. And he looks like a great quarterback. He

260
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 2: looks like a great quarterback. He looks like he'd get

261
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 2: the job done for a long time to come. And

262
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 2: I expect him to find a job next year and

263
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 2: be another one of those career revitalizations. Uh in the

264
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 2: same breath as Sam Darnold and and and uh Indiana

265
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 2: Jones out there in Indianapolis, and uh, who I'm missing

266
00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 2: because there's been the Baker Mayfield in Tampa. It's been

267
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 2: a lot of guys that have kind of been been

268
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 2: given up on and been called bus and then turned

269
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 2: around and got great coaching, whether it's Kevin O'Connell, Sean McVay,

270
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan, and then really really had a career resurgence.

271
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: And that's been cool to see.

272
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 2: But in other news, we're hearing a lot of conversations

273
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 2: about Shador Sanders and how a number three quarterback shouldn't

274
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 2: be talking to the media and how he should shut

275
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 2: up and he's becoming a distraction and all this again,

276
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 2: I think Shador Sanders is is an NFL quarterback. I

277
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 2: think he could be a starter on a number of teams.

278
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 2: Do I think he should be getting interviewed as a

279
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 2: as a number three quarterback?

280
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: I don't.

281
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 2: But I think as a professional, if you're in a

282
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 2: locker room and somebody comes up to you and asks

283
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: a question, it's rude for you to just walk away.

284
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: It's rude for you to say no comment. I got

285
00:14:58,200 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: none to say, because that'd be news.

286
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: You know that they spend that story and manipulate that

287
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 2: to say, hey, he's a bad guy. This is why

288
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 2: he can be a starting quarterback. Because he doesn't know

289
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 2: how to handle the media. I think he's handled himself

290
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 2: pretty well. Being confident is one thing, and I think

291
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 2: him saying hey, I think I'm better than a lot

292
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 2: of guys out there. You seeing a quarterback play, I'm

293
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 2: better than a lot of them, I think that's unnecessary

294
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 2: because of how it's going to be perceived and how

295
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 2: it's going to be received. Again, I think the narrative

296
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 2: about him not going to Baltimore was crazy, and I've

297
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 2: spoken my piece on that. But then you look up

298
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 2: and you see a situation where Lamar Jackson has a

299
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 2: hamstring injury and now they have to go to their backup.

300
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 2: And that's a situation where if you just don't say

301
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 2: anything and Baltimore wants him and Baltimore picks him up,

302
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 2: then you're in a situation where again you're learning from

303
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 2: a veteran quarterback, a super bowlt I mean, an MVP

304
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 2: of the league multiple times, and this situation comes up.

305
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 2: You're surrounded by a really really good team, a good organization,

306
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 2: a good head coach who plays situational football as good

307
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 2: as anybody, a great running back behind you.

308
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: So again, this is why you don't turn down any opportunities.

309
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 2: If a team in the future, if a team wants

310
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 2: to draft your kids, just say yes. Just say yes.

311
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 2: I know teams don't. You don't want to go to

312
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 2: bad teams that are untalented teams. But when you don't

313
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 2: have a choice in his third round or later, just

314
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 2: say yes. Just say yes, because you never know what

315
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 2: can happen in this National Football League, and every opportunity

316
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 2: is a good opportunity. It's an opportunity, and you never

317
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 2: know what's gonna happen any given Sunday. Anything can happen.

318
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 2: This game never ceases to amaze me. So in that situation.

319
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 2: I think, you know, I think he's he's doing the

320
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 2: best he can. He I don't think he needed to

321
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 2: do the whole mind silence thing because Rex said he

322
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 2: should just shut up and do all that. Like, I

323
00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 2: think that's a little bit extra. But I'm I'm not

324
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 2: really mad at him. I'm not, you know, I think

325
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,439
Speaker 2: it's a non story. He's doing the best he can

326
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 2: in the situation. He's probably frustrated. He thinks he should

327
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 2: be playing, and he wants to play, and sometimes things

328
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 2: are aren't in your control. But again, can he handle

329
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 2: the situation a little better? I'm sure he could. I'm

330
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 2: sure he's going to continue to learn from this and

331
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 2: get better and improve with each and every day, which

332
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 2: is which is all he can do and which is

333
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 2: all anybody can do. As always, I appreciate you guys

334
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 2: joining us. You could be anywhere in the world, but

335
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 2: you hear with us even when we're on the road

336
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 2: and we're not at home in our studio, and I

00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 2: sure do appreciate it.

338
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: I don't enough
