them to under 20, which has only happened twice all year. 00:04:40 Speaker 2: So that's number one. Number two is total yards. The Raiders only gained 240 yards yesterday, which is their lowest of the season. So that's another stat in the Niners' favor. And then, bro, your rush yards. 00:04:52 Speaker 6: The Raiders rushed it for 24 yards yesterday, which is by far their lowest of the season. So there was any number of stats that showed the 49ers' defense. 00:05:02 Speaker 6: Did control a very high powered offense, which has scored 38 against the jets the week before, and even put up 21 on the Rams and 30 on the bills. 00:05:11 Speaker 5: Yeah. 00:05:11 Speaker 3: I mean, this was a Raiders offense that came into this matchup scoring 27 to 28 points per game. And of course the turnovers prevented the Raiders from scoring that many points. 00:05:21 Speaker 2: They not turned. 00:05:22 Speaker 3: They could have, but credit to the 49ers for forcing those turnovers. Also the Raiders need to look themselves in the mirror because they made a lot of mistakes also, but circling back to the original point. You're right. There were no sacks recorded in the box score, but to Tim Ryan's point, there was a correlation between pressure and turnovers. Even the first play of the third quarter with Kirk Cousins fumbling the snap, Nick Bosa was in his face as he floated that up to Jalen Duggar. You mentioned DeForest Buckner on the Renardo Green interception also. So just because they're not stacking up the sacks right now doesn't mean that the defensive line didn't have a big impact in yesterday's game. And I got to say, even before the Grayson-Halton injury yesterday, I'm taking a look at that defensive line, and you're seeing Bosa, DeForest Buckner, Osa Digizua, and then a mix and a match between Romello Haidt and Michael Williams. 00:06:10 Speaker 2: Keon White. 00:06:11 Speaker 3: And Keon White as well. And I'm like, damn, this team actually does have some depth. Now, there are some issues behind Osa and Buckner now without Grayson-Halton. But I agree with Tim. I would expect those sack numbers to go up, despite the fact that they haven't had a sack now in two, three weeks, going back to Atlanta before. 00:06:25 Speaker 6: The bye week. 00:06:26 Speaker 2: Two weeks in a row, no sacks, yeah. I mean, I get it. Sacks aren't everything, but guess what? They're pretty good, too. 00:06:30 Speaker 6: 707 says, how many sacks did Bosa and Buckner combine for yesterday? 00:06:34 Speaker 2: Well, we know the answer. The answer is zero. 00:06:36 Speaker 6: 925 says, people have been lauding the defense, but I thought the Raiders passed up and down the field with zero sacks. See, there was a little bit of kind of like in the eye of the beholder. 707 says the defense is lethal. They fight for the ball on every play. 00:06:51 Speaker 2: That's true. That's very true. 00:06:52 Speaker 6: You got to give them credit that even if they give up the pass reception, they don't think the. 00:06:57 Speaker 5: Play is over. 00:06:57 Speaker 6: 831 says no sugarcoating. They didn't play their cleanest game yesterday, but that's what elite teams do. You can play a B or C game and still find ways to To win. 650 says, I've been going to Niners games at Levi's since they opened. I can name on one hand how many times I felt like Niners fans were into it, and they were all playoff games. There are no season ticket holders in our section. This person's coming after Raiders. He says, the Raiders fans were louder than the Niners fans, and I thought it was sad. 00:07:26 Speaker 3: Yeah, I heard a lot of stories about season ticket holders selling their tickets for this game, cashing out. I mean, this has been the most expensive game at Levi's this season. And Murph, I talked to you about some of the fan splits from the tailgate to inside the stadium. It felt like 60, 40, 49ers Raider fans. 00:07:42 Speaker 6: Yeah, we talked early in the show about the fights and it was bad, awful. And we talked about, but then some people pushed back and said that they didn't see any of them. And they had a great time at the tailgate. So it's sort of like a tale of two perceptions. If you're looking at your Twitter feed, you see some ugly stuff. If you're talking to Marcus or some other people who were out there tailgating, they had a great time. 00:07:59 Speaker 5: Yeah. 00:08:00 Speaker 3: There were some knuckleheads out there causing trouble as always. I mean, we've had this matchup a hundred times here in the Bay area. It's one of the biggest reasons why they stopped having Raiders and 49ers play preseason games because of all the fights. But I will say outside of everything that was going viral on social media, Hands down, that's the best tailgate scene that I've ever seen outside of Levi's Stadium. 00:08:19 Speaker 2: Wow, how about that? 00:08:20 Speaker 3: It was a party. Of course, you have the traditional Niner fans out there tailgating in the green and blue lots, but the Raider fans had a huge presence, and it was cool to see both fan bases actually getting along outside of the few knuckleheads that were getting into fights. 00:08:35 Speaker 2: How many Mexican flags with the Raiders' shield on it? 00:08:37 Speaker 3: Oh, there were a lot of them. There was a lot of them out there. 00:08:39 Speaker 2: That's the sure sign of a Raider tailgate. 00:08:41 Speaker 6: 805 says, Jordan Watkins had better numbers yesterday than Jawan Jennings has all year. 00:08:47 Speaker 3: That's a fact. 00:08:48 Speaker 2: So there you go. 00:08:49 Speaker 3: I see no lies with that take. 00:08:50 Speaker 2: There you go. 00:08:50 Speaker 5: There you go. 00:08:51 Speaker 3: All right, guys. 00:08:52 Speaker 6: So there's fun stuff to read the text line and to continue to react to this game, which had, yeah, some ugly fights in the parking lot. 00:08:58 Speaker 2: Yeah, some great tailgates in the parking lot. And yeah, five turnovers. 00:09:02

Speaker 6: That the Raiders will rue for a long, long time. Coach Louie checked in, you know, our Navy water polo coach, who's a big Raider fan. 00:09:09 Speaker 1: He's upset. 00:09:10 Speaker 2: He said the mayor fumble. Sorry, Mike. I've been saying Meyer. It's mayor. 00:09:15 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a little confusing with the E, but you say it like an O. 00:09:18 Speaker 2: It's mayor. 00:09:18 Speaker 5: Mayor. 00:09:19 Speaker 2: My bad. I'm doing a push-up. 00:09:20 Speaker 3: All good. 00:09:21 Speaker 6: The Mike Mayer turnover and the interception in the end zone, Coach Louie sent a salty tweet saying, it's. 00:09:28 Speaker 2: Like the Raiders were trying to lose that game. 00:09:31 Speaker 3: It's like they were trying to not cover that 10.5 point spread. 00:09:34 Speaker 2: Unlike Navy, it finished 21-5 in their water polo. It's the best win percentage since 07. 00:09:38 Speaker 5: Yeah. 00:09:39 Speaker 3: Well, tell Coach Louie I'm also upset. A, the fact that the Raiders didn't cover the spread. And B, we didn't even get to see Fernando Mendoza. 00:09:46 Speaker 5: Yeah. 00:09:46 Speaker 3: Like, come on. If you're losing by that many points in the fourth quarter, give me Fernando. Give me a glimpse of the future. 00:09:51 Speaker 2: Give me some ABBA. Cue it up, Walt. 00:09:53 Speaker 1: All right. 00:09:54 Speaker 6: Listen, cooler of content with the best sound of the day. 00:09:58 Speaker 2: Coming up next on Esports Later. 00:10:01 Speaker 5: All right, everyone.

It's always fun, man. 00:10:23 Speaker 2: The weekend happens. It's stacked to the gills. 00:10:25 Speaker 6: It's all the sound over the weekend. Sponsored by Marin Health with top physicians, surgeons, and clinicians right here in the North Bay. Marin Health puts you closer to your best health. World-class care closer than you think. Morning after a Niner game, the cooler should only be Tim Ryan yelling, ball out! 00:10:41 Speaker 2: It should be the entire thing. 00:10:43 Speaker 3: Or it should be Tim Ryan comparing your height to Jordan Watkins. 00:10:47 Speaker 2: Well, yeah. Let's do it, baby. 00:10:50 Speaker 6: Anyway, here we go into the locker room. It's funny, man. I was watching Sunday Night Football last night. Bears escaped the Bucs. It was a weird game. The Bears were dominating, and then they turned it over a bunch. And then the Bucs tied it up late. But then almost like the surest bet in sports is an NFL team has to go 30 yards to kick a field goal, they'll go 30 yards to kick a field goal. 00:11:14 Speaker 3: Yeah, it seems like it's easier than ever these days. 00:11:16 Speaker 2: So they did. 00:11:17 Speaker 6: And then they were showing the postgame locker room, and Ben Johnson's about to do his thing. 00:11:21 Speaker 2: And I was like, man, do you remember a time in life when the locker room was sacred? We did not see those. 00:11:28 Speaker 6: And then somewhere along the way, around 15 years ago or so, Harbaugh, who's got it better than us and all that, he started seeing that stuff. 00:11:34 Speaker 2: And I remember as an old beat writer, I was like, ooh, it's kind of like, you know, sacred. Like, you're not supposed to do that now. I watched him do his whole, good, you both get better, you both get best. 00:11:43 Speaker 3: I mean, we're at the point now where guys are going live on Instagram, live from the locker room postgame. Like, live streaming has taken us inside of locker rooms. It's a whole different world, a lot different than when you were on the beat, that's for sure. 00:11:55 Speaker 6: So anyways, all that's a long way of saying we have Kyle Shanahan in the postgame locker room, and he hands out a game ball to somebody special. 00:12:03 Speaker 2: Stay tuned. Listen to Kyle Shanahan after the game. 00:12:08 Speaker 7: I always talk about it, but it's one of the coolest team things, and you do it by throwing the ball, you do it by playing good defense, you do it by not turning over. All right, but 43 runs, I see that's a whole team thing. Awesome job from all you guys, man. 00:12:19 Speaker 5: Wow. 00:12:19 Speaker 7: You guys had five turnovers today, man. Four drives in a row with the turnover, guys. I've been a part of that big time. I also want to give one ball out to somebody, all right? It's how many times that you score more touchdowns on pass plays by a running back than anyone in the history of the NFL. All right, Christian McCaffrey. 00:12:54 Speaker 2: Standard keeps going up, man. 00:12:56 Speaker 5: We know what we can do. 00:12:58 Speaker 3: Get better, get on the tape, correct the mistakes, capitalize on the things we did well, man. 00:13:01 Speaker 8: Let's come back to work with that energy of continuing to do this, continuing. 00:13:04 Speaker 5: To get better. 00:13:05 Speaker 3: We got a great team because we got a bunch of dudes that love ball and love each other. 00:13:08 Speaker 5: Let's keep it that way. 00:13:09 Speaker 7: Niners on three. 00:13:11 Speaker 3: One, two, three. 00:13:11 Speaker 5: Niners. 00:13:12 Speaker 2: There you go, man. Niners do it straight. They don't have any kind of slogans or anything. They just do, Niners on three. Niners. But, dude, listen. 00:13:20 Speaker 6: It's Captain Obvious here, but sometimes it's worth pausing and. 00:13:23 Speaker 2: Appreciating the career of Christian McCaffrey. 00:13:26 Speaker 3: Yes, it is. 00:13:27 Speaker 6: First of all, you're going to Canton, bro. He's got 106 touchdowns now. He's on the short list of, like, all-time touchdown scorers. Now he's caught more touchdowns as a running back. He just passed Marshall Falk. 00:13:39 Speaker 2:

I mean, bro, this guy. Forget it. Sometimes you've got to pause and appreciate. 00:13:43 Speaker 3: Yeah, and we also know that he's also in a league company with guys like Marshall Falk and Roger Craig as the only running backs in NFL history to have 1,000 receiving yards and 1,000 rushing yards in the same season. And he's almost done it multiple times. 00:13:57 Speaker 6: 37 career receiving touchdowns passing Marshall Falk. He was one of the fastest players in NFL history to reach 100. He's only, you know, he has 50 touchdowns with two different franchises. He's 50 career rushing touchdowns and at least 25 receiving touchdowns. Only he and Lenny Moore and Marshall Fogg. I mean, on and on and on. 00:14:17 Speaker 3: I mean, he is just such a weapon, and this is nothing new, but the two touchdowns this Sunday against the Raiders, the second one, coming out of the backfield, he was wide open. John Joe Curley could have caught that pass and walked into the end zone, but it's all because Chris McCaffrey is able to get free and just give these defenses different looks where they look lost trying to cover him in the floods. 00:14:36 Speaker 6: Right now, in terms of active touchdown leads, it's Derrick Henry at 136, Devontae Adams at 121, Mike Evans at 112. 00:14:43 Speaker 2: Mike Evans. 00:14:44 Speaker 3: Mike Evans. 00:14:46 Speaker 2: And then McCaffrey at 108. 00:14:48 Speaker 6: And in terms of running backs, the only running backs with more than him, Barry Sanders at 109. 00:14:52 Speaker 2: So he's about to pass Barry freaking Sanders. Okay. 00:14:56 Speaker 6: So Barry Sanders, Sean Alexander, the criminally underrated Sean Alexander, Lenny Moore, John Riggins, Walter Payton, Jim Brown, Marshall Falk, Marcus Allen, Emmett Smith, nine. So he's top 10 running backs all time in touchdowns. And he's just going to keep climbing, bro. 00:15:15 Speaker 3: Yeah, get that gold jacket ready. 00:15:17 Speaker 6: He's going to pass Barry Sanders, and then with four more, he'll tie Sean Alexander and pass him. 00:15:22 Speaker 2: So five more, he passes Alexander. He could do that this year. 00:15:25 Speaker 5: Yeah. 00:15:26 Speaker 2: All right, there you go. Back to the Niners. Fred Warner, he. 00:15:29 Speaker 6: Decided to have some fun because, you know, they do their locker, their post-game podium interviews, and then one guy walks in while the other guy's finishing up. So Fred Warner was finishing up, and Brock Purdy entered the room, and Fred decided to give him a grand introduction, and Brock decided to review it. 00:15:42 Speaker 5: Here it is. 00:15:44 Speaker 8: Yeah, Brock Purdy's the best quarterback in the league. That's what he does. So he gives us the best chance to win every single week. He's the reason why we got a chance to go get a trophy. 00:15:53 Speaker 2: Brock Purdy. You're up, buddy. 00:15:56 Speaker 3: That was cringe. 00:16:02 Speaker 2: There you go. 00:16:03 Speaker 3: Kids say that to me all the time. Yeah, and that was

edited down a little bit. It's hilarious when you watch it live, and there's like a 10-second pause in between Fred and Brock, and then just the first thing Brock says. That was cringe. That was cringe. Come on down, buddy. 00:16:18 Speaker 1: It's Brock. 00:16:19 Speaker 6: Meanwhile, Warner's another appearance here in the, in the cooler talking about how fans said to him, they have to beat the Raiders. 00:16:29 Speaker 8: The good lean up to this game was probably the most I've had people on outside, outside, like telling me like, Fred, you guys got to beat the Raiders, you know? And so I'm like, all right, all right, I got you. And it just is important for the Bay. 00:16:40 Speaker 3: Right. 00:16:40 Speaker 8: And so just that long history of, of the Raiders being in Oakland, but now them being in Vegas, I mean, I love the atmosphere. I love the juice. And so that's why I said that they were the Oakland Raiders today, right? Just to kind of have that extra edge going against these guys. They're a good football team, right? And so they, you know, they fought, but it was up to us to make sure we, uh, we took care of business and got the win. 00:16:59 Speaker 2: There it was, man. And you saw it play out. The rivalry was alive, wasn't it? 00:17:03 Speaker 5: Yes. 00:17:04 Speaker 3: It's still the Battle of the Bay, even though one team is playing in the South Bay and the other team is playing next to Mandalay Bay. 00:17:10 Speaker 2: Ah, there you go. There you go. 00:17:11 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, that's how I still make the conversation work, Murph. But as somebody that was in the building yesterday, there's still a rivalry. And we're not just talking about the fights. Like, there's a bunch of us talking. There was some good... like friendly, family friendly as talking, going back and forth as well. But with the split being 60, 40 Raider Niner fans. 00:17:31 Speaker 5: Yeah. 00:17:32 Speaker 3: You can't tell me that people in the Bay area don't care about this rivalry. 00:17:34 Speaker 6: We're getting more and more texts from saying it was the best tailgate they've ever seen. 00:17:38 Speaker 3: I mean, hands down. I'm just picturing wasps and wasps. 00:17:42 Speaker 2: Of tri-tip smoke coming off of grills. 00:17:44 Speaker 3: Oh, dude. 00:17:45 Speaker 2: With Banda bands. 00:17:46 Speaker 3: Yeah, dude. I mean, walking around. There were people shooting music videos. You had the Banda bands down there as well. Like, there was live music. It turned into a festival in the parking lot. Gringo! 00:17:56 Speaker 6: I kind of want some of those tacos now, man. How about Yaxel, as we call him? Yaxel Landenberg, in making his official entrance into Bay Area celebrity-ness, goes to. 00:18:06 Speaker 2: A Niners-Raiders game, films himself with E-40. Oh, and Nick Cannon. Nick Cannon? 00:18:12 Speaker 5: Nick Cannon. 00:18:13 Speaker 3: From Wildin' Out? 00:18:14 Speaker 5: I guess. 00:18:15 Speaker 3: Was it a family reunion? He's the one. Who we

introducing? Who we introducing? This is a shortcut. 00:18:23 Speaker 6: This is Yaxel filming himself with Nick Cannon. What is Nick Cannon doing there? 00:18:27 Speaker 3: Here it is. 00:18:28 Speaker 5: Here it is. It's good, y'all. I'm Yaxel and the boy. 00:18:31 Speaker 2: It's me and your man Nick Cannon and the one and only E-40. 00:18:35 Speaker 3: Bang, bang, now it is. 00:18:37 Speaker 2: That's the entire cut. 00:18:38 Speaker 7: Bro. 00:18:38 Speaker 2: It's a little muddy. 00:18:39 Speaker 3: Bang, bang, Niner Gang. 00:18:40 Speaker 2: He yells it in the background. 00:18:41 Speaker 3: I mean, I couldn't think of it. 00:18:43 Speaker 5: Bang, bang, Niner Gang. 00:18:44 Speaker 3: You want to talk about two opposite rappers, E-40 and Nick Cannon, if you even consider him a rapper. 00:18:49 Speaker 5: In the same conversation. 00:18:50 Speaker 2: I was going to say, do you consider him a rapper? 00:18:52 Speaker 3: Nick Cannon's an actor who likes to act like he's a rapper. 00:18:54 Speaker 2: Is that right? 00:18:55 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:18:55 Speaker 2: Was he with Mariah Carey? 00:18:57 Speaker 3: Yes, he was with Mariah. 00:18:58 Speaker 2: That's quite a feather in the cap now. Yeah, that's true. 00:19:01 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's gotten shouted out in a few Eminem diss tracks before. 00:19:04 Speaker 2: Okay, so the Niners are playing the Cowboys this weekend. 00:19:07 Speaker 6: This Sunday, maybe the Cowboys will commit this penalty. 00:19:11 Speaker 2: Cut G. Listen to this penalty here. Check it out. 00:19:16 Speaker 8: After the play on sportsmanlike conduct by Dallas, we had a non-uniform player in the blue sweats and a stocking cap come onto the field to celebrate. 00:19:26 Speaker 3: That's a 15-yard penalty. It's first and 10, timeout. 00:19:30 Speaker 6: That's all freaking time. We had an un-uniformed player in the blue sweats and the stocking cap. 00:19:36 Speaker 3: Bro. 00:19:37 Speaker 6: Bro, you know you are a clown organization when that stuff's getting called out by the refs. 00:19:42 Speaker 3: What a disaster. 00:19:43 Speaker 2: Player in the blue sweats and a stocking cap bro cowboys tighten it up and this. 00:19:48 Speaker 3: Dude was like running in the middle of the field tighten. 00:19:52 Speaker 6: It up cowboys i mean what are we doing what would moose johnson say we had him on friday oh man what an s show come on come on i'm talking about buddy daryl Come on, Tick. 00:20:03 Speaker 2: Tighten it up, buddy. 00:20:04 Speaker 3: How about those Cowboys? 00:20:05 Speaker 6: How about Sean Payton getting a little old and cranky? People accuse me of getting old and cranky. I'm not as old and cranky as Sean Payton, who's always cranky. 00:20:14 Speaker 2: Now, I'll tell you this. We had him up at Edgewood once. He was a great interviewer. But during games, around games. 00:20:18 Speaker 3: He's a little pinched. What do you know about playing downhill? 00:20:21 Speaker 5: Exactly. 00:20:22 Speaker 2: Well, here he was giving an answer, and he sees a reporter, and he calls the reporter out. Check it out here. Can we not smoke in here? 00:20:31 Speaker 5: Please. Oh, you're not smoking. 00:20:33 Speaker 8: You got a pencil. 00:20:34 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I thought you were smoking. 00:20:37 Speaker 5: I owe you. 00:20:39 Speaker 2: But I was just, I had a flashback thinking, who's smoking a cigarette? 00:20:42 Speaker 5: All right. I'm sorry. 00:20:44 Speaker 2: I'll start again, though. What an odd. 00:20:50 Speaker 5: What? 00:20:50 Speaker 2: A good win, obviously, before the bye. 00:20:53 Speaker 6: What an odd lash out. Like, he comes in, sees a guy with a pen in his mouth like this. 00:20:57 Speaker 2: Like, you know. Hey, can we not smoke in here? We're not smoking here. It's like a bad hall monitor, right? 00:21:03 Speaker 5: We're not smoking here. 00:21:05 Speaker 3: Because if the guy was smoking, you would see the smoke. You would smell the smoke. The guy just had a pencil in his mouth and he thought he was ripping a heater. And it's like Peyton's walking in looking for the smoke. I mean, not just the physical smoke, The metaphorical smoke. It's also 2026. I mean, going back to the 90s, would beat reporters rip darts in the locker room? 00:21:26 Speaker 2: I'm trying to think if I came in at the tail end of that. 00:21:29 Speaker 3: Because I know like baseball culture used to be different with Jim Leland smoking packs in the dugout. But I can't remember the last time I saw somebody on the beat rip a heater in front of a head coach. 00:21:39 Speaker 2: I'm trying to think. I definitely know. I saw some used to happen. Used to have them. I kind of miss it. 00:21:44 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:21:45 Speaker 2: Kind of miss it. 00:21:45 Speaker 3: I don't. 00:21:46 Speaker 2: A heck of a look. 00:21:47 Speaker 3: Well, I can tell you, I didn't miss any smoke this weekend. Like, that was one thing that I think Raider fans and Niner fans definitely bonded over was sparking one up at Levi's Stadium. There was a lot of smoke on both sides of the field yesterday. 00:21:59 Speaker 5: Oh, man. A lot. You're not smoking. 00:22:01 Speaker 8: You got a pencil. 00:22:01 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. 00:22:02 Speaker 5: Oh, no. 00:22:02 Speaker 3: It smelled like the Bay Area down at Levi's yesterday. 00:22:04 Speaker 6: 916 says, definitely the best tailgate I've seen at Levi's as a seasoned tickle door for over 30 years. He says, yeah, there was a couple of fights, but I was there at Candlestick when it was a melee. He says, otherwise, as a fan, I thoroughly enjoyed the Raiders fans that attended. 00:22:19 Speaker 2: Great banter. There you go. 00:22:21 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I have sort of a similar feeling, too, because I grew up going to tailgates almost every weekend at the Oakland Coliseum, and I went out to a few tailgates at Candlestick, too. I missed the overall tailgate experience because there are a lot of parking lots, like outside of the Green Lot and Blue Lot,

where, like, It's just like a business, and you're not even allowed to tailgate. They charge you $ 80 to $ 100, but you can't set up a table and have a couple beers in the parking lot. Like, I miss the old-school tailgating vibes, and having Raider fans and Niner fans together yesterday during the tailgate kind of brought me back a little bit to the days of the Colts and the days of Candlestick. 00:22:54 Speaker 6: So we're flipping the script of social media showing all the fights to say there was a lot of good stuff, too. 00:22:57 Speaker 3: There definitely was. 00:22:58 Speaker 2: 702 says, you want to talk sad? 00:22:59 Speaker 6: I'm a Vegas resident, and Raider Nation is non-existent when filling up Allegiant Stadium. 00:23:04 Speaker 3: Bro, I'm not even joking. It felt like there were more Raider fans yesterday at Levi's Stadium than there were Raider fans for the last 49er and Raider matchup on New Year's Day. 00:23:12 Speaker 2: This is the thing in sports. 00:23:13 Speaker 6: Like, Giants fans that travel to baseball games on the road are better than Giants fans in San Francisco. And, hey, we're having a problem with Bob Chesney, who's just, you know, I don't tell you about Bob Chesney. I think he's my favorite human being in the world, but we can't. 00:23:28 Speaker 2: Thank you. Thank you very much. Another win in the fourth quarter. Guy looks like a million bucks with the hair and the shades and the gum. And he's calling out. He's like, yeah, for there's some plays out there. 00:23:37 Speaker 6: We throw two 75 yard touchdown, but we're, our fans are terrible, but they go to Minnesota and there's a pocket of rabid fans. So it's like better fans at Minnesota than in Pasadena. 00:23:48 Speaker 2: So anyway, it's a thing. It's a thing in sports. 00:23:50 Speaker 3: Is UCLA more of a national brand than a local brand? 00:23:53 Speaker 6: Maybe it's just people that travel are, I think in general, if you travel to a game, you're speaking of which you're going to get those 49ers fans in Dallas this weekend. 00:24:00 Speaker 3: Absolutely. 00:24:01 Speaker 2: The way we end our show every day is the sound of the Dallas game. 00:24:04 Speaker 3: That's the end of the game. 00:24:05 Speaker 2: That's the end of the game. 00:24:06 Speaker 5: Yeah. 00:24:06 Speaker 3: But yeah, definitely no questions asked. The Raiders and the 49ers are still the two most popular teams in California. Was talking to Todd Husek before the game yesterday as he was doing a little pre and post game with Cobes on the sports leader. He said his dad was flying up from LA. He said half the flight was Raider fans. The other half was Niner fans from SoCal flying up for this matchup. 00:24:25 Speaker 2: Sitting on opposite sides of the aisle. 00:24:27 Speaker 6: 510 and 408 say they think Nick Cannon's in town because there's a wild and out show this weekend in the Bay. 00:24:33 Speaker 3: Oh, a little family reunion going on this weekend, huh? Might have to pop out there. 00:24:36 Speaker 2: There you go, man. All right, fun stuff. We have more stuff. We'll leave it for it's evergreen. We can play it later this week. Some good stuff. 00:24:43 Speaker 4: Eric Branch. 00:24:45 Speaker 6: Who asked Kyle Shanahan about Sports Talk Radio on Friday. So we'll get the branch opinion on what the Niners need to do by tomorrow's trade deadline. He's the Niner beat writer for the San Francisco Chronicle next on The Sports Leader. 00:24:56 Speaker 1: Now back to Murfin Marcus on The Sports Leader. Streaming live on thesportsleader.com and KNBR. The Sports Leader app. Murfin Marcus is sponsored by Bigelow Tea. Grab a mug and tea proudly. 00:25:17 Speaker 6: All right, it's all 49ers Raiders this morning. Man, oh, man, whether it was some of the grim video footage of fights that bummed us out, and then the strong reports from all the fans out there that it was not all fights, that it was a great tailgate scene. Some people say the best tailgate they've ever been to at Levi's Stadium. And then there was the football game in which the 49ers forced five turnovers. Kirk Cousins throws three picks, and the Raiders. 00:25:44 Speaker 2: Rue. 00:25:46 Speaker 6: A couple of punch-outs from Upton Stout and Fred Warner. Let's talk about it with Eric Branch, our buddy from San Francisco Chronicle. As I tell you, you're listening to KMBR AM and KMBR FM, San Francisco, the sports leader at Cumulus Media Station. 00:26:00 Speaker 2: Good morning, Eric. How are you? 00:26:01 Speaker 3: Hey, Eric. 00:26:02 Speaker 5: I'm doing well. How are you, fellas? 00:26:04 Speaker 2: We're good. 00:26:05 Speaker 6: We basically booked you because you were the guy who, first of all, we love you. And second of all, we loved that you threw the confounding phrase, sports talk radio. And Kyle Shanahan on Friday, and he was like, sports talk radio? 00:26:17 Speaker 2: I loved it. We just want to thank you for the plug, Eric. Thank you. 00:26:21 Speaker 3: Thanks, Eric. 00:26:22 Speaker 5: Yeah, it wasn't, well, not unusual with me. It could have been maybe a better phrased question. But, you know, as I was going to the press conference, I was listening, of course, to sports talk radio. And I was hearing all this, you know, could Brandon I use? Stay with the 49ers? It doesn't sound like, you know, Shanahan Lynch or ruling that out. And I was just like, oh, my gosh, are we kidding? So what I was trying to say to Kyle was, hey, you know, there's, you know, this buzz, sports talk radio, you know, saying it's possible, Brandon, I know you could come back. Could you please, like, let everyone know that's not happening? And, of course, given the situation, he didn't completely slam the door. But, obviously, we know the door is slammed shut. 00:27:09 Speaker 6: Uh, fun stuff, man. Actually, let's start there before I get to the game. Friday, the circus, you know, Friday is where sports talk radio goes to die. Cause we don't come back until Monday morning. And by

then a whole weekend has transpired or as we call it, I mean, Washington DC, they do the Friday news dump when they have a. 00:27:22 Speaker 2: Bad econ report, right? 00:27:24 Speaker 6: So, uh, what can we take from the, the arrival of drew of drew Rosenhouse and Brandon, Iuke, the helicopter coverage, an hour and 15 minute meeting. We hear with John Lynch and a report from NFL network, the $ 13 million might be owed. 00:27:39 Speaker 2: Is there any update? Is this thing still going, Eric? 00:27:45 Speaker 5: To the best of my knowledge, it is still going. And you know, Obviously, the report said it could lead to arbitration, and that could mean, you know, there's not a resolution in the near future. You know, it's notable that, and of course, Drew Rosenhaus, you know, made it sound, he made, you know, in his brief statement before the meeting, you know, he made no mention of this little $ 13 million snag. And he suggested, you know, there's a team waiting to, you know, snap out Brandon. But, you know, there is a trade deadline on Tuesday. So that's one thing of note, just because, you know, I'm not sure the 49ers could even get, say, a 2028 seventh round pick for Brandon Ayuk. But that would mean, obviously, they can't do it at least this year. They'd have to wait until March. And I don't think they can keep them on, you know, employed for that long. So, but it was crazy. I've covered, you know, the Niners since 2010. So I've covered a lot of crazy stuff. Like my, one of my first weeks on the beat, um, Jimmy Ray, the offense coordinator who was about to get fired was talking, um, to us in a press conference and Mike Singletary, you know, then the head coach was, um, laying down, you know, on an elbow kind of, um, Lazing like a lion in the sun and listening to Jimmy Ray, you know, a few feet away from us. And I was like, I've never covered professional beat. I was just like, is this normal? But anyway, that was my introduction to the 49ers. And there's been crazy stuff, you know, that's happened through the years. I mean, even just this year, Kyle Shanahan's accident, Jed York with a prostitute incident. and I don't know, the scene of a helicopter overhead, about 20 reporters waiting as Brandon Ayuk and Drew Rosenhaus stepped out of a large black Mercedes limousine van. I mean, it really was like a movie with kind of the heel agent and the bizarre client. So, yeah, that was a first. I hadn't done that. 00:30:06 Speaker 3: Yeah, it truly was a hell of a scene. But, Eric, moving on from the spectacle, that is Brandon Ayuk. I do want to stay in the wide receiver room because you mentioned the trade deadline tomorrow, and it has been a topic on Sports Talk Radio on whether or not the 49ers need to add more pieces to this wide receiver room with all the injuries that they've been dealing with. But I'm going to spin the question this way and ask you about Jordan Watkins. And ask if his performance over the last couple weeks, going back to the Atlanta game, has changed the perception within the building of what the 49ers need to add at wide receiver or if they've already found something in Jordan Watkins. 00:30:38 Speaker 5: You know, I'm not sure. It's not that Jordan Watkins has stepped up and had a few moments, but I'm not sure. his performance is going to determine whether or not they make a trade for a wide receiver. I think someone has had to make some plays just almost by default. And, you know, to his credit, he's done that, but I'm not sure they feel like, okay, he's suddenly our number three wide receiver and, you know, Oh, what a find. Maybe he'll evolve into that, but I'm not sure that's how they feel right now. I think it really comes down to how they feel about Mike Evans and his Achilles tendonitis. Um, John Lynch said last week on Sports Talk Radio that, you know, they hope to get Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel back in the coming weeks. And then he invoked Christian McCaffrey. So, you know, that is a thing. But if they think that's a thing that really will be resolved within the next few weeks and Mike Evans is good to go, I think that's a big deal and, you know, obviously shapes how they view the rest of the season in that wide receiver room. Because If you feel confident about having Mike Evans, this is an offense that has Brock Purdy and Christian McCaffrey and George Kittle. You know, I think that's enough to get you to a Super Bowl. So I think so much is dependent on how they feel about Mike Evans and his Achilles tendonitis. 00:32:04 Speaker 2: That's a good point. 00:32:05 Speaker 6: We'll know by tomorrow at 1 o'clock what they really think on that line. If they go get a receiver, it could be because they don't think, or if they go elsewhere. And that's where my next question is, is the D line, Eric. 00:32:15 Speaker 2: It's interesting. 00:32:16 Speaker 6: I was, maybe it was just me, my perception, but I was expecting more from Nick Bosa and DeForest Buckner in game one. But then we had Tim Ryan on and yeah, well, Tim is, it's more positive, but he's not a total homer. 00:32:27 Speaker 2: He's not going to totally lie. And he doesn't gloss over the truth. 00:32:31 Speaker 6: He liked what he saw from Bosa and Buckner in the D line, even though they didn't have the actual sack. He thought that they affected the game. So it's kind of like how you perceived it a little bit. How did you perceive it? 00:32:46 Speaker 5: Well, I'm someone, you know, there are some people that watch a football game and they can really speak intelligently about stuff like that. I'm sure Tim Ryan, you know, is one of those having played in the trenches in the NFL. I tend to watch the ball a lot. And so, you know, one of my editors during the game, you know, he said, how's Buckner playing? And I was just like, um, You know, I noticed him. But then I looked at the stat sheet. I was like, oh, he hasn't tackled a quarterback yet. So I am doing the game review, watching the game over. 00:33:20

Speaker 1: Yeah. 00:33:22 Speaker 5: Today. And that's what I'd like, because then I can say, OK, you know, I'm an idiot when watching these games, I feel like. And so now I can really focus and look. Not that I have expert, you know, experts in those opinions. But it's constructive to do that. So I'm particularly interested, obviously, in Buckner and Bosa, because there was a thought of like, you know, holy smokes, you know, they haven't like, obviously hadn't had those guys together since 2019, but, you know, really hadn't had Bosa, you know, much at all this season. The thought of those two coming together, it was like, oh, how many sacks will they get? And so, When the answer is zero, it's like, huh, what's going on? Obviously not time to panic. Their first time together, both could be rusty. Buckner's still getting a feel for a new defense. But certainly something to monitor. 00:34:19 Speaker 3: Eric, we got the news last night that Grayson Halton's season is over with a broken ankle. So how are you feeling about the 49ers' defensive line depth without Grayson Halton out there? And is that an area they need to address before tomorrow's straight deadline? 00:34:33 Speaker 5: I think they could. I mean, when in doubt, when you're thinking about the trade deadline, you know, bet on the Niners, you know, trading for a defensive lineman of some sort. Obviously, they've already done that with Buckner. I do think Sebastian Valdez has given them a really nice lift. And it's a guy who was on the practice squad last year. And you wonder if he may have been, you know, better than some of the draft picks. Obviously, you know, after Collins and CJ West, you know, were second and fourth round picks respectively. So they were going to play, but you know, to my eye, which as we've discussed, I'd always like Tim Ryan, you know, Sebastian Mel does maybe having more of an impact than those two guys did their rookie year. So that helps. They've got Jane Thompson jr, but you know, Is that enough to carry them through? You know, you have to, with this team in particular, assume a little more attrition. So maybe, you know, a low wattage move for another defensive tackle wouldn't surprise me. 00:35:42 Speaker 6: Eric Brantz is the voice you hear, San Francisco Chronicle beat writer. Yeah, a lot of intrigue between now and the trade deadline. By the way, just making sure, 1 o'clock Pacific? 00:35:50 Speaker 2: I didn't Google it. 1 o'clock Pacific, is that it? 00:35:53 Speaker 5: That's correct. 00:35:53 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. So we'll see. I mean, to me, I'd go get a D lineman. That's me. But other topics. 00:35:59 Speaker 6: Hey, you've been covering the league a while, all the way back to the days when Mike Singletary lays like a lion in the sun. 00:36:05 Speaker 2: I want to get back to that, by the way. And that is the peanut punch. 00:36:09 Speaker 6: Now, obviously, it didn't start with the 49ers because it's named after a Chicago bear, Peanut Tillman. But man, oh man, it feels like it's just exploring. Like we were saying, if you did like a graph on it, it's like spiking dramatically in how much we talk about it and how much the 49ers are using it. What's your reporting been on this? How much have the players talked about it? Fred Warner did a thing, Marcus, you didn't see this because you were at the game yesterday. They had him before the game show his clenched fist to the camera and his right middle knuckle is swollen and bruised and scraped from all the. 00:36:43 Speaker 2: Peanuts peanut punches. 00:36:44 Speaker 6: So give me your full breakdown, Eric. What do you think of this whole phenomenon? How are offensive ball carries ever going to combat it? Is Warner the best? 00:36:53 Speaker 2: What's going on here? 00:36:56 Speaker 5: Yeah, it is, you know, going on throughout the league and you wonder, you know, peanut Tillman, you know, there's reasons for the peanut punch, as you noted, you know, why, why wasn't this happening earlier? But I don't know. Obviously I'm not checking out all the other linebackers or defensive players, but you know, As Don Phillips once said to Earl Campbell, if he's not the best, don't take long to call roll. You know, he just has these massive right hooks. And, you know, it's hard to get those things to land. And obviously, you know, because of his calluses, you know, sometimes they do miss the mark. But, you know, that was just another extraordinary punch on Brock Bowers yesterday. So, yeah. And then what? It was the next series up and stout, you know, punched it out on another tight end, Mayer, that wanted to recover it in the end zone. So, yeah, I like so many things with Fred Warner. I think, you know, he set me an example. I wrote about him for my story, you know, after the game. And what was just as a kind of a side note here, but I talked to mostly Diggy Zua, Jaden Duggar, and Ken White about Fred. And none of those guys had played with him up until this year. And so my question was basically the same to them, was, you know, obviously you knew from afar he was great, all pro. But do you have a greater appreciation for, you know, him now that you're a teammate and you see him up close? And without prompting, they all independently said it was his effort that struck them, like that he runs to the ball every single play. I was just like, you know, so finally, Ken White was the third guy I talked to. And I said, you know, that's funny because the other two guys, you know, said the same thing. And I said, that actually sounds really simple. Like, run to the ball every play. You know, you're in the NFL, right? Why is that so hard? Why is that special? Why is that a unique quality? And he said, it's hard to be consistent with anything in life. And so I just... Sorry for the tangent here, but I just found that, you know, really kind of cool that obviously Fred Warner has all sorts of special gifts and qualities. But what stands out to these guys is just his

constant effort and just never lets up. 00:39:25 Speaker 3: Eric, last question for me before I let you go. Just a quick injury update. We saw Renato Grosso. leave the game yesterday after his interception with a back injury, and Diometer Lenore was also dealing with a foot injury. Is there any concerns or any updates on whether or not these can be considered serious injuries? 00:39:42 Speaker 5: Kyle Shanahan suggested no, but he also acknowledged that they'd have to check them out further today. So I guess when we do talk about the trade deadline, if, if even one of those guys, you know, turns out to have something, you know, semi-significant to significant, that's an issue. I mean, their third, their first quarterback off the bench had been Jack Jones. And they had to put Jack Jones in because Upton Stout was hurt against Atlanta. And that went so well that Jack Jones was released after the game. So again, That shows you that they have three really good cornerbacks in Renato Green, Diameter, Lenore, Epton Stout. But after that, it gets really dicey. Like, really dicey. Like, you know, Ephesians Pryzak, the rookie, would probably be the next guy in. So, yeah. Like I said, Kyle Shanahan said they didn't seem like serious injuries, but he certainly wasn't definitive on that. 00:40:50 Speaker 6: I want to go back to that Singletary. What was that lying, like a lazing, like a lion in the sun? That was fascinating. 00:40:55 Speaker 2: What was that going on there? 00:40:58 Speaker 5: Well, that's the thing. I didn't, I was so new to it. You know, I'd covered like high schools and small colleges and I just literally was like a week or two on the beat. And, you know, so I knew Singletary is not just an Irish head coach, but, you know, growing up watching him, legendary Hall of Fame player, And I said, why? Is this common? I don't think it is. You know, I've watched NFL all my life. But anyway, and then, you know, I think it was the next game against Kansas City that the Niners got blown out. And Mike Singletary said, how much you love Jimmy Ray? And then the next day, Jimmy Ray was fired. And that was a wild season. But yeah, so anyway, I'm glad you like that image. Um, and I don't know what it fairly said other than I just found it extremely odd. Yeah. 00:41:54 Speaker 2: Where was it again? Physically located the location of the, well, okay. 00:41:59 Speaker 5: So this was, yes, I like, I love your interest in this. Uh, so, you know, now we're in the auditorium for the press conference, but this is when they just like had a, uh, you know, pitch to like a tent out there near the practice field. Um, and so, it was near, uh, well, just that it was near, you know, just off the practice field. Yeah. Yeah. And so we were under the tent, you know, in so shaded, but he was just a few feet away, you know, raising like a lion in the sun. 00:42:36 Speaker 2: Incredible, man. 00:42:38 Speaker 5: Oh man. 00:42:38 Speaker 2: We should have known then it wasn't going to work out. 00:42:40 Speaker 8: All right. 00:42:40 Speaker 2: Maybe in a back end, I don't know, maybe in a back end. 00:42:42 Speaker 6: It's funny you say that because Vernon Davis is in a podcast over the weekend that hit my algorithm on social media. And they revived all the Singletary stuff. And he talked about the rap that Singletary cut for him. 00:42:54 Speaker 2: You know, boom, boom. What was it again, Marcus? 00:42:56 Speaker 3: What about me? Boom, boom, boom. What about me? 00:42:59 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah. 00:43:00 Speaker 6: And so they brought back all the, you know, can't do it. 00:43:02 Speaker 2: I won't win. All the whole stuff that... So anyway, it's just funny. You mentioned Singletary. 00:43:07 Speaker 6: That's twice in a little two-day span I got some Singletary in my life. 00:43:12 Speaker 2: All right. 00:43:13 Speaker 5: Yeah, go. 00:43:13 Speaker 2: Perfect. 00:43:15 Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, no, if I may add, that was another thing that struck me, because Singletary at practice would be some guy dropped the ball, and his coaching points, whatever the issue was, was something like this. Catch the ball, son. 00:43:32 Speaker 2: Well, that's like my, you know, CYO basketball, you know. Get back on D! Get back on D! Sometimes you just got to yell the obvious. Catch the ball, son. 00:43:42 Speaker 5: I guess so. Well, a few years later, I think Mark's, you know, Terry went 0-11 as a high school coach in Texas. So I'm not sure. Oh, man. 00:43:51 Speaker 2: Well, you know what, buddy? 00:43:53 Speaker 6: Whatever he's saying is not what your coach and my coach, Bob Chesney, is saying. 00:43:59 Speaker 2: Oh, wow. Because whatever he's saying is elite. 00:44:05 Speaker 5: Unbelievable. One week at a time here, Murph. But yeah, it's... Pretty remarkable. 00:44:13 Speaker 2: Hey, I'm laser focused on Illinois, buddy. Blank Illinois. 00:44:17 Speaker 5: All right, buddy. All right. 00:44:21 Speaker 2: All right, buddy. 00:44:22 Speaker 6: Thanks for the time. We always love reading you. Look forward to your film review. That's always a good piece. So I look forward to it. 00:44:26 Speaker 5: Yeah. 00:44:26 Speaker 3: Thanks, Eric. 00:44:27 Speaker 5: All right. Thanks so much, guys. I appreciate it. Nice talking to you. Yeah. 00:44:30 Speaker 6: Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle telling us. Grayson Halton, you could want a D-line. He's going to break down the film a little bit more. Just to your eye, you were at the game, so you watch it differently when you're there. 00:44:43 Speaker 2: Sometimes you can see a little bit more, you know, the all-22. 00:44:46 Speaker 3: You get that end zone view. 00:44:47 Speaker 6: Yeah, but just Buckner and Bosa, we thought was going to be a wrecking ball tandem, and it didn't really show. Now, Tim Ryan liked what he saw. I was thinking they needed to put more heat on Cousins. Cousins gets rid of it quick, like Penix did. 00:45:02 Speaker 2: Stats are the stats. No sacks in two straight weeks. 00:45:04 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I will say this about the Raiders offensive line. They're essentially the opposite of the 49ers. Or maybe I should take that back because the 49ers have done a great job of protecting Brock Purdy this season alone. But the Raiders offensive line is definitely a better pass-protecting offensive line than they are a, like, road graver type of mauler offensive line, which is why they struggle to run the rock so much. I saw some pressure between Bosa, Buckner, Romello Height, and Osa Digizua. I would expect there to be more as these guys get to play together a little bit more and get some more reps underneath their belt. Yes, no sacks on the day, but there were definitely some scenarios where there was pressure that first forced Kirk Cousins into making some bad decisions. 00:45:42 Speaker 2: I should go back and watch the darn film too. I was on one where I just kept, and I tweeted about it, and I'm like, Kirk Cousins is unharried. We need to harry him. 00:45:50 Speaker 6: So let's get into it. 808 KBR is the phone number. Were you out there? Hopefully you didn't get involved in some of the violence. We hated to see it. Hopefully you enjoyed the tailgate that Marcus was saying was the best tailgate. 00:46:01 Speaker 2: Maybe in Levi's history. How are you. 00:46:03 Speaker 6: Guys feeling at 7-1? What do you need in a trade deadline? Do you need another receiver? You heard Eric Branch tap the brakes a little bit on Jordan Watkins. Or do you need another pass rusher? Because you always need pass rushers. What do you want from John Lynch? 808-KMBR is the phone number. 415-808-5627 is the Golden State Lumber and Showroom text line. 00:46:22 Speaker 2: Open the rest of the show on the Sports Leader. 00:46:25 Speaker 5: Boom, boom. 00:46:26 Speaker 2: It's all about me. 00:46:27 Speaker 5: Boom, boom. 00:46:28 Speaker 2: It's all about me.
