00:00So the 49ers are coming to town, and nobody can understand,
00:03and I shouldn't say nobody.
00:04A lot of folks don't seem to understand.
00:07You have it at Bovada at three right now,
00:09that the San Francisco 49ers are 6-0.
00:15They have the best record, along with a number of teams, undefeated,
00:18about four undefeated teams.
00:20There's four or five undefeated teams, Chiefs, Vikings, 49ers.
00:24Who am I leaving out in terms of undefeateds?
00:28But there's three.
00:30Three, I got it.
00:33Why are we only getting a field goal?
00:36Did you not watch us against the backup quarterback, Snoop Hundley, of the Ravens?
00:42We lost that game.
00:44Did you not see us against Caleb Williams and the Bears,
00:48who by no means have been lighting it up this year?
00:50I mean, they've had some good weeks, but they also were the worst team of the week
00:54the week before against Green Bay where they got blown out of the gym
00:57or the, you know, Lambo.
01:00Did you not watch our first two games where we were humiliated by Carolina
01:05and where we went to Pittsburgh and you couldn't get out of our own way?
01:08Granted, it was Cooper Rush.
01:09Like, how does a 2-4 team play a 6-0 team and have many of the sharps thinking that
01:17Atlanta
01:18is a good play?
01:20Because I'm not a sharp, but I think Atlanta is a good play.
01:25I think that they're on a short week.
01:27I think that they've got injuries.
01:29Mike Evans, the biggest at the top of it.
01:31I don't think he's going to go.
01:32Not five days later after that Achilles, right?
01:35You know, it's a good way to really screw your season up, have that Achilles turn into
01:38a full-blown, blown-out Achilles, and he's out for the year.
01:42And the Falcons should play desperate, like they did, with an incredible sense of urgency
01:48when they went to Green Bay on a Thursday night and everybody's like,
01:52we are done with this franchise.
01:54We just spent money, and the Carolina Panthers came in here and treated us like a lost puppy
02:04dog that's been kicked down the street, right?
02:07Just like you're no factor.
02:09And then they came out against Green Bay, and they had 194 yards from Bajon on the ground,
02:13they had 194 yards from Drake, and they just smoked the Packers.
02:17And then they go to Katrina game in New Orleans, and they smoked the Saints.
02:20And then all of a sudden, our city's like, we can win the division, we can host a playoff
02:25game, our offense is dynamic, look at these new receivers, we got Dotson and Branch and
02:33Zaccheaus, and we got Kyle back and Drake back, and Bajon back, and Brian Robinson's ridiculous,
02:38whatever.
02:39We deal with the overreaction that everybody does in every town, in every sports city,
02:43in every sports radio station.
02:45And now we're back down to earth with two miserable losses.
02:49And now the best team in football comes in, and we're only getting three points.
02:54I think the Falcons are in a great place.
02:56But I want to talk about who's coming to town, and not just, you know, a talented 49ers team
03:02with Brock Purdy, who's looked great so far.
03:05It's Kyle Shanahan.
03:07Brock Purdy is in the MVP conversation with Kenneth Walker.
03:10Boy, does he look smooth.
03:11He looks good, and he looks confident.
03:13And we all know his story, right?
03:15So Kyle Shanahan is coming back to town.
03:21And when you have a seismic, a franchise, city-altering game like our Super Bowl, you know,
03:35there's like a life before the Super Bowl collapse, and there's life after.
03:38And life after the collapse has been extremely rough, and we all want to blame somebody.
03:43We all want to talk about Falcons are cursed.
03:45We all want to talk about, you know, that our defense caved in.
03:51We had no answers.
03:52Maybe we want to talk about Matt Ryan not checking down.
03:55But predominantly 80% to 90% of folks want to blame Kyle Shanahan.
04:00After the Julio Jones catch, you are three running plays away in a field goal from winning the Super Bowl.
04:05There's just not enough time left for New England to be able to come back at that point.
04:09So everybody turns to the fact that, you know, you got behind the sticks because of a penalty,
04:17and then you got a sack, and next thing you know, you're out of field goal range,
04:21and all you needed to do was just run the ball three times and turn to your kicker.
04:25Okay.
04:25Hey, there's a million plays in the Super Bowl, and Kyle Shanahan was being aggressive like he always is,
04:35and it was ill-advised, and it blew up in his face.
04:42But to sit here and say that he's like the number one villain,
04:46you take Kyle Shanahan as an offensive coordinator back here,
04:50you would drive to Hartsfield-Jackson Airport.
04:53If you don't drive, you'd rent a car to go get him.
04:57And by the way, if he wanted a luxury vehicle, you'd probably borrow one.
05:01So Kyle Shanahan might be the best coach in the National Football League.
05:04And to say he's our number one villain, okay, I don't have the energy for that.
05:09Is Kyle Shanahan smug?
05:11Absolutely check.
05:12Is Kyle Shanahan smarmy?
05:15Check.
05:16He's that.
05:17Is Kyle Shanahan the guy that in the post-game party when you lost the Super Bowl,
05:23according to our buddy Brian Finneran, was smiling and hanging out with his wife
05:27because he knew he was about to hit a massive payday, right?
05:30He's got the 49er job already.
05:32But I just don't have it in me to be like, I loathe that guy.
05:38Remember Kyle Shanahan, the most petty thing I ever saw from him.
05:41Do you remember we were all talking about why didn't you get Roddy White the ball?
05:43And then he comes out and he throws it to Roddy three plays in a row just to give a
05:47middle finger to the fans.
05:47That's exactly right.
05:48And it was like, boy, that's an immature thing to do.
05:51That's a juvenile way to handle your business.
05:56But here's what else I see.
05:57Goes to the playoffs every year.
05:59Understands offenses.
06:00Has a team that plays with discipline.
06:03I mean, you know, like he's coming back to town and Raheem's coming back to town because he's the defensive
06:10coordinator.
06:10And maybe, Sandra, it's just like going to a wedding and running into your ex or multiple exes.
06:17It just gives you a weird feeling sometimes.
06:20Maybe you're single and now you're looking at you're at this event and you look over and it's like, wow,
06:26she seems really happy.
06:27We're still over here.
06:29We're miserable.
06:30Nothing good has happened.
06:30I think the greater question is, is would you take him back?
06:33And the answer is 1,000% yes.
06:35Yeah, both of us would say it.
06:36So I just did a chat of like, could you tell me some things the NFL players say, the other
06:41coaches say, the owners say about Kyle Shanahan.
06:44And it's the most respected, you know, he and Sean McVay are like best friends.
06:49They were part of that commander's staff that went.
06:52And what he does, according to his players, is he's the most consistent in the building and he has the
06:57ability to change things quickly.
06:59So if they can spot a problem, he immediately can make it right.
07:03I mean, Matt Ryan was the MVP under Kyle Shanahan.
07:05Our offense is the reason.
07:07It's not like our defense in any of the Matt Ryan years was the reason behind any success.
07:13It was the offense.
07:14Here's Tony Gonzalez and here's Roddy White and here's Devontae Freeman and here's Austin Hooper and here's Julio Jones and
07:21here's Kyle Shanahan calling plays for them.
07:23And like, it all worked.
07:26So I know you're angry.
07:27We want to blame somebody for the Super Bowl.
07:29It's a collective, you know, I mean, not a lot to blame Matt Ryan for.
07:35Even the blitz that he took at the end of the game there.
07:38Somebody had to have a wherewithal.
07:39And this is where Matt Ryan, to me, gets a lot of criticism in terms of when they were snapping
07:44the ball down the stretch.
07:45And I believe it went something like 13, 9, 16 seconds.
07:50Do you know what I'm talking about?
07:51Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:52You've talked about it for years.
07:53Why did you not run that clock down?
07:54The Patriots were almost completely out of time.
07:58Yep.
07:58Even if they, even if we, again, didn't score, they were almost completely out of time if you'd run the
08:04clock down.
08:04Listen, I know it's painful.
08:05People in the cars are like, why are you guys rehashing the Super Bowl?
08:08You know, so the blame could go around.
08:10We take Kyle Shanahan here in two seconds and get over it.
08:13Right?
08:13We take him as a head coach.
08:15We take him as a coordinator.
08:15He has gone to San Francisco and run an airtight operation.
08:21Right?
08:21And they're coming in here.
08:22I mean, the number of times he's not only been in the NFC Championship game, but to the Super Bowl
08:27twice, both lost to the Chiefs, but literally lost the NFC Championship in the NFC Championship game in the wild
08:35card.
08:35It's remarkable what he's done.
08:37And to start out 6-0.
08:38And over the last three years, the San Francisco 49ers have the most injuries in the NFL.
08:45So for him to do what he's doing.
08:48Yeah.
08:48I find it interesting, though, the connection with Raheem because it's so incestuous in the NFL that he would have
08:54hired Raheem.
08:55Yeah.
08:56That's the other factor.
08:57I think Raheem is considered an absolute top-tier defensive coordinator.
09:03Right?
09:03Wherever Raheem has been a coordinator, they've had great success.
09:06Yes, he was unemployed for three seconds, it seemed like, and he got the job in San Francisco.
09:11And by all indications, they're undefeated.
09:14They put an incredible amount of pressure on quarterbacks.
09:17And he's coming back also.
09:19How do people feel about Raheem coming back here?
09:21What do you think that percent?
09:23Well, I think we loved Raheem until we didn't love Raheem.
09:27Right.
09:27It got old quickly, and we didn't win.
09:29So there was that.
09:30But I always worry about the revenge factor and Raheem.
09:34Like, oh, they showed me the door.
09:35Yeah.
09:36And Kyle and him, the tendencies that they know about our players.
09:40Well, that I totally agree with.
09:42Raheem Morris coached Michael Penix Jr.
09:45He coached Kyle Pitts.
09:47He knows Kyle Pitts' limitations.
09:49One would argue, you know, energy sometimes.
09:53Or, like, you know, completely going all out to make stuff happen.
09:58Right?
09:59And I know he had the two touchdowns.
10:01But, you know, he's had a mediocre season at best.
10:04I think Raheem, and listen, everybody knows that Raheem knows better than anybody else.
10:09He looks at Michael Penix.
10:10He coached Michael Penix.
10:12He watched Michael Penix be injured.
10:14And he was watching film and going like, dude, all we have to do is put pressure on him.
10:18Like, it's not complicated.
10:19If you put pressure on Michael Penix, A, he's tentative.
10:22B, he can't move right now.
10:23Like, he just doesn't move well.
10:25So, I coached this guy, Raheem Morris, telling his defense, just get after this guy.
10:29I know it sounds rudimentary.
10:32And it's not like Kevin Stefanski and everybody doesn't know.
10:34Oh, yeah, we know their game plan.
10:36They watched the Ravens.
10:37And they watched this week against the Bears.
10:41And they're going to put pressure.
10:42But I would say you're right.
10:43Raheem Morris is coming in here desperately.
10:47Maybe he was shown the door in two years.
10:50Two years is about as short as it gets for an NFL coach.
10:53Right?
10:55But I don't have...
10:56And we're hiring a consultant that came in and said this management group...
11:00He had no focus.
11:02Yeah, Matt Ryan's here because Raheem Morris is failing.
11:04Yeah.
11:05Matt Ryan left CBS because Raheem Morris fell on his face.
11:09And Terry Fontenot fell on his face.
11:11That's why.
11:12I don't know if you guys have thoughts on either one of those guys.
11:15I got more important things to put my energy towards.
11:18And that's just find a way to get a W.
11:20404-726-0929.
11:23404-726-0929.
11:26I think you're talking everybody into picking the San Francisco 49ers.
11:31When you think about Raheem and that defense.
11:33I'm looking at Brock Purdy who currently has the highest rated passer in NFL history.
11:40He's 21 or 29, 264.
11:44He passed the 1500...
11:45That was last week, you mean.
11:46No, but his career...
11:47Listen to this.
11:47Passing the 1500 attempt threshold to qualify for those numbers.
11:50He has a 105-6 rating, which is ahead of Lamar Jackson's.
11:55Okay.
11:55He's a really good quarterback.
11:57I get it.
11:58Then why is it spread three?
11:59You think Vegas doesn't know what they're doing?
12:01I think somebody was drinking.
12:03I don't understand this at all.
12:04You think everybody in Vegas is drinking?
12:05Well, actually, they are.
