00:00The 49ers off a buy are four and four.

00:02They are going to get Christian McCaffrey back.

00:05Of course, we heard Shanahan playing games

00:07with that all week.

00:08He did say yesterday he expects him to play.

00:11He also talked about the quarterback on the other side.

00:15Very impressed with what Baker Mayfield's

00:17been doing with the Bucs.

00:18What do you see from Baker?

00:19How has he grown in Tampa?

00:21I think Baker's a stud.

00:23I think last year, I thought he was at the top

00:25of his game last year, playing real well.

00:26And this year, I think he's the same, if not better.

00:30I think he's one of the main reasons.

00:32I think there were a couple of plays away

00:36from playing us in the NFC Championship last year.

00:37We were real worried about him going into that game.

00:39He just got hotter as the whole year went,

00:42and he's playing at such a high level right now.

00:45Without a doubt.

00:46And let's stop with all this nonsense.

00:48This guy won a Heisman Trophy,

00:51and he is a really good quarterback,

00:54and he goes for it.

00:55He's a stud.

00:57There's no doubt about it.

00:58He's a badass.

00:59And I think he got labeled in Cleveland,

01:03and people seemed to forget that what was wrapped

01:05around him was stale bread.

01:08I mean, they just didn't have the team around him.

01:12He was like trying to do it himself,

01:14and he dealt with all kinds of injuries.

01:15He got obliterated in the pocket.

01:18They had no line.

01:19And then when he went to the Rams, he had success.

01:22When he went to Tampa, he had even more success.

01:25You put talent around him like Evans and Godwin,

01:28he lit it up.

01:29I think now he's showing how good he is

01:32because he's playing with all these backups,

01:34and he's still getting it done.

01:36This guy is a gamer.

01:38Let's stop with all this other rhetoric.

01:41No doubt.

01:42Six and a half for the Niners on the road.

01:45This has gone up throughout the week

01:47with the McCaffrey News.

01:48And 50 and a half, a big total.

01:50Of course, the Bucs have played a lot of overs

01:53so far this year.

01:56When this game was on the board at the beginning,

02:00it was six, so it's only moved a little bit.

02:03I still think it's the Niners

02:05because of the Tampa problems with injuries.

02:08And I think that McCaffrey being back changes everything.

02:12Even if he gets in a limited number of snaps,

02:17I can still see him scoring a touchdown or two.

02:20If they're inside the five or something

02:22and inside the red zone,

02:24he's gonna be effective when he has the ball

02:26like he always is.

02:27I don't think he's gonna carry the heavy burden,

02:30but he doesn't have to.

02:31Just having him out there makes the Niners a better team,

02:35and they need to win this game.

02:37I think Tampa's lost five or six.

02:39They're in trouble

02:41because I think the Evans and Godwin injuries

02:43really killed them,

02:44and all the blown opportunities.

02:47The game where Bulls didn't go for two in Kansas City

02:50is just one loss after the next,

02:52and I think it's caught up with Tampa.
