00:00Do you like Shibuzi?
00:01I do like Shibuzi.
00:02Do you like Shibuzi?
00:02Oh, yeah.
00:03I've been into Shibuzi a lot lately.
00:04Look at you.
00:05He's got a song.
00:06One of his newer ones is called Good News.
00:09I got some good news.
00:1295.7 The Game.
00:14Breaking News.
00:19Adam Schefter.
00:20Sources.
00:22Additional scans today on wide receiver Juwan Jennings' shoulder have come back totally clean.
00:30The 49er wide receiver has avoided any significant injury at all.
00:34He is now considered day-to-day with a chance to play on Sunday.
00:40Okay.
00:40And I wonder what the injury was.
00:43If it just was a...
00:44Because the play was when he was running downfield and the defensive back just stepped up and gave him a shimmy right to the shoulder.
00:50And they called a flag on it.
00:52Illegal contact.
00:53But it looked worse than apparently it turns out to be.
00:56Maybe it just was like a stinger or a bone bruise.
00:58I don't know.
00:59I don't know.
00:59That's great news.
01:00Yeah.
01:00Like very shocking because he was...
01:02He looked downtrodden.
01:04Yep.
01:04He could not lift his arm.
01:06I got some more good news.
01:08Man, Jabouzi's on a hot streak.
01:10I got more good news.
01:11You ready for this?
01:12More?
01:12Well, first of all, we're going to go to the phones.
01:14But our first caller is one hell of a caller.
01:19This is a caller.
01:21This isn't just like, oh, let's go to Joe and Santa Clara.
01:26No.
01:27Is a caller?
01:28His name is Mark Abanez.
01:32What?
01:33Mark Abanez.
01:34First and foremost, Randy knows that you spell Mark with a K.
01:37And secondly, he's a legend around these parts.
01:40And I love whenever he's inspired to give us a call.
01:44Mark, how you been, man?
01:46Hey, everything's good.
01:48Retirement is...
01:49Everything is cracked up to be.
01:51I love it.
01:52I love it.
01:52Boy.
01:53You were a smiley guy during your career.
01:56But now, I mean, you can just hear the smile on you, Mark.
01:59Well, I appreciate that.
02:03I was getting a kick out of your conversation about Doug Bryan in particular.
02:08And that game where he missed a field goal, potential game winner against Indianapolis.
02:14Yeah.
02:14Well, I had kind of an interesting anecdote about that.
02:18And I couldn't resist calling you guys.
02:20I hear you every afternoon.
02:23And so, I did the post-game show, the 49ers point after.
02:28And we were at that dreadful game when Doug Bryan happened to miss that kick.
02:33And he was in a little bit of a slump anyway.
02:36And our post-game guest was the great offensive lineman, Harris Barton.
02:41You guys remember him?
02:42Oh, yeah.
02:42Of course.
02:45Yeah.
02:45Well, one of the reasons we always had Harris on is he was never afraid to speak his mind.
02:51So, he comes on and, you know, he's all frustrated.
02:55He's sweaty.
02:56He's still in his pads.
02:58And I'm paraphrasing a little bit, but I've repeated this story a few times, so it's still pretty fresh.
03:05And he was like, you know, we're down in the pits.
03:09We're grinding.
03:10We're shoving.
03:11Blood, sweat, and tears.
03:13And this little guy prances out on the field.
03:16And he doesn't even have a dirty uniform.
03:19And he misses this kick from, like, 32 yards.
03:23And I can't believe it.
03:25I can't believe we keep a guy like this, you know?
03:28And he was just outraged.
03:30It was one of the most candid, overly emotional interviews you'll ever hear.
03:36You know, we got him fresh before he even showered.
03:39And sure enough, he got released the next day.
03:44And him being a Danville guy, I knew how to get a hold of him.
03:49And I actually interviewed him after the release.
03:51It might have been, like, Tuesday.
03:53And I'll never forget what Doug Bryant said, you know, about the Harris-Spartan comments.
04:00He said something to the effect of, you know, I thought a teammate would have my back a lot more than that.
04:07You know, I really didn't expect Harris to say something like that.
04:12And internally, I'm thinking, dude, I'm sorry to break it to you.
04:17And kind of alluding to what you earlier said, Mark, is, like, you're the kicker.
04:21Yep.
04:22You're barely a teammate.
04:24You know, they don't consider you totally on the team unless, like, for years and years.
04:31I mean, Ray Wershing is about the closest guy I knew on the Niners that was accepted as a true teammate.
04:38And then on the other side, remember George Blanda used to kick and Ray Guy.
04:42Those guys were dudes who were accepted by everybody.
04:46But that's the straight-up truth about it.
04:48If you're a kicker, you've got to prove yourself maybe double, triple time.
04:54And that, unfortunately, is what happened to our young guy here, man.
05:00Like you said, helmets were flying, man.
05:03And the people were kicked off.
05:04And it's a fickle thing, because in that game, Mark, as you well remember, he hits a 51-yarder to give him the lead.
05:11Jim Harbaugh, quarterbacking the Colts, leads him back.
05:15Right.
05:15Kerry Blanchard puts him ahead.
05:17And then Doug Bryan from 46, no good.
05:19And the rest is, as you know, history.
05:24Yeah.
05:25And as they always say, you're only as good as your last kick, right?
05:28And that's a perfect example of it.
05:30And, you know, I was down on the field when that happened.
05:33And I'm glad you pulled up the info there, because in my mind, it seemed shorter than 46.
05:41But, you know, I was emotionally wrapped up in that game, too.
05:45But when you guys were talking about it, and Doug Bryan, a classic, good guy, soccer star.
05:52And as you mentioned, guys, he had a really strong, what, dozen years in the NFL.
05:57And he bounced.
05:58He bounced back.
05:59He was strong, and he withstood it.
06:01And I'm sure that was a low moment for him.
06:03But, you know, he's got some character, and he bounced back, as I'm sure Looney will do, too.
06:08Yeah, hopefully.
06:09Moody.
06:10Yeah, hopefully.
06:10I know.
06:11Moody's and Looney's on all the teams.
06:13We can't even keep track.
06:14But, anyway, no, exactly right.
06:16You know what?
06:17Go ahead, Mark.
06:18I was going to say, you know what?
06:20You know what?
06:20One of the great things about being a retired sportscaster, you don't have to sweat it about
06:25screwing up guys' names anymore.
06:28It's so great.
06:28You've earned that.
06:29I'm going to call him Looney for the rest of the day.
06:34Who cares?
06:35Who cares?
06:36You know?
06:38Moody, it's always good to hear your voice.
06:40Call any time.
06:41I appreciate you.
06:44Great show.
06:45And I like the dynamic between you two.
06:49Keep it edgy.
06:50I like it.
06:50Thank you, sir.
06:51Thank you, Mark.
06:51Thank you, sir.
06:52Yep.
06:52Enjoy that retirement.
06:54That's a good man right there.
06:56That's Mark Abad, yes.
06:57And if you ever happen to come across him, just check the guns.
07:01Sneaky guns.
07:02It's a show.
07:03It's a total show.
07:04It's a show.
07:05Especially in the summer months.
07:06I mean, look, he is not wrong.
07:08And I want everybody to know this today.
07:11It doesn't matter if you think it's unkind or not.
07:14But no, they do not think the kicker is their teammate.
07:19They don't.
07:20They go to training camp in August.
07:23Many of these places, it's 100 degrees.
07:25And they are absolutely trading sweat, trading blows, trading paint, doing all of these things.
07:32And the kickers are over on the side of the field playing hacky sack.
07:39They don't think you're on their team.
07:43They just don't.
07:44And it's a zero tolerance when it comes to things like that.
07:48Because, yeah, Doug Bryan kicks a big one, 50-plus, to give you the lead.
07:53Cary Blanchard with the answer.
07:55And now you've got to make another kick to win the game and you don't?
07:58Forget what happened about 12 minutes earlier.
08:01That doesn't matter anymore.
08:02Mark's right.
08:03You're only as good as your last kick.
08:04And for Jake Moody, forget that last kick that he made.
08:08And the touchdown is what they needed to win it.
08:10It's the two previous, one blocked, one missed.
08:12And that's it.
08:13The Moody news, obviously, he is gone.
08:16We're going to talk a lot about the 49ers injury bug.
08:19And if there's something well beyond bad luck that's going on here, although some good luck was just broken a short time ago in that Jawan Jennings' shoulder comes back completely clean.
08:30MRI, CT scan, everything is clean.
08:34The Niners say that Jawan is day-to-day and has a chance to play on Sunday.
08:40I do wonder where this leaves Kendrick Bourne.
08:43And I was wrong because I sort of took Kyle Shanahan talking the way he did openly about Kendrick Bourne to mean they knew Jawan's injury was bad.
08:53I wonder now if it meant more, yeah, they weren't very pleased with what they saw from the likes of Russell Gage and Marcus Valdez-Stanley.
09:01And so that's sort of maybe more the role that they'll go with Bourne because they signed him.
09:06They signed him to a one-year deal.
09:08Yeah, and the thing that I'm starting to think about more and more, Mark, is what Kendrick knows that Marquez Valdez-Stanley and Russell Gage maybe to a lesser extent don't know.
09:17He knows the offense.
09:19He knows the system.
09:20He knows what Shanahan wants.
09:22And I think that he knows what his role will be.
09:25And I can't help but think about the game Sunday.
09:28And I've watched it now a few different times in different ways.
09:31And there are so many times when they broke the huddle and you had a couple guys running over to Brock Purdy like, hey, Brock, do I start over here and then I motion?
09:41And Brock's like, no, you're there.
09:43You're there.
09:44I got seven seconds.
09:45We're going to get everything set.
09:46Now you go in motion.
09:48Now we run the play.
09:49And I don't think you have to do that with Kendrick Bourne.
09:51I agree.
09:51Every day that goes by, again, probably won't surprise you all, but I'm not saying he played great, but I just gain a sort of a different level of appreciation for what Brock Purdy was dealing with on this day.
10:06When you have multiple injuries to major names, you have receivers asking you where they're supposed to go, you have a pressure rate that is the highest that you've ever faced in a football game in your career,
10:17you have a kicker who's missing all of the kicks.
10:20All of these things are tucked into one.
10:24It's a tough day.
10:25I'm not going to say that that makes his interceptions excusable by any stretch, but that's a tough day.
10:32There was a lot of adversity that that offense had to deal with.
10:37And so no wonder they didn't look great, at least at times.
10:40But they found a way to win a football game.
10:42They found a way.
10:42And if you look at the fourth quarter receptions, George Kittle, zero.
10:46Jawan Jennings, zero.
10:48Brandon Ayuk, zero.
10:49DeMarcus Robinson, zero.
10:51Also zero.
10:52Gage and MVS, fine.
10:53Also zero.
10:54No targets either.
10:55You had some CMCs.
10:57You had some Pearsals.
10:58You had a Juice.
10:59And then you had Tonjes.
11:01You had three Tonjeses, which were the first three catches of his career, which were big, bigger, and the game winner.
11:09And so you did it with, basically, your running back, your wide receiver one, and a tight end that nobody ever thought would play.
11:17I'm hosting a party tonight at 9 o'clock.
11:19Do you want to come?
11:20I do, yeah.
11:21It's called the Jake Tonjes waiver claim party.
11:23Oh, wow.
11:24Everybody's going to come over to the Casa, and we're all going to put in the claims.
11:30Submit.
11:31At least a month.
11:33That's your tight end one, San Francisco 49ers.
11:36Yeah.
11:37Maybe.
11:37What do you mean, me?
11:38Well, and we can get into this more as we get closer to the Greg Cosell portion of our week, but they're going to do a lot of Luke Farrell as well.
11:47I think Brayden Willis is going to be up, and I think that it's more, for me anyway, waiver claim-wise, it might be more of a Kyle Juszczyk maneuver because I think his play time goes up.
11:58But you can't play him at tight end.
12:00No, but...
12:00You can't play him at a running back spot?
12:02Based on our league and what we all have at running back.
12:05That's fair.
12:06I'm hoping for Quinshawn Judkins to get healthy.
12:09Good luck to you.
12:10All right, let's get to the phones.
12:11A lot of you want to weigh in.
12:1316 teams.
12:14I can't in, then, in about 25 minutes.
12:16Kay Bueno in Oakland, his first stop.
12:18Hey, Kay Bueno, what you doing?
12:20What's up, guys?
12:21Now I just was listening in.
12:22I mean, man, talk about pressure.
12:24Now I've got to follow Marky Banez.
12:25Yeah, don't mess it up, okay?
12:27Okay, let me sit my tea real fast here.
12:30So, yeah, look, no more moody blues.
12:33It finally came.
12:35He's been let go.
12:36Okay, good.
12:37It's been a long time coming.
12:39You know, I know, you know, it was well overdue.
12:42I think you made a great point.
12:43Like, you know, Shanahan's showing everybody in the locker room, we want to win this thing.
12:47And he has to make a move.
12:49I think if he didn't do that, he'd tend to lose credibility with the locker room there.
12:54Now, what I want to touch on earlier, though, too, you know, you mentioned this about Pinheiro.
12:59You know, we don't know if he's going to be our ticket yet.
13:00He's still trying out.
13:02But I'm going to assume that he's going to be our next guy.
13:05I would feel better with a kicker that's more accurate than with a kicker who's got a 60-yard leg and can't make the chip shots.
13:12I mean, Moody, wish him all the best.
13:15Again, another person, you hope he has a long-standing career.
13:19Clearly, it's got to be all between the ears here.
13:21But the guy can kick it 60 yards plus.
13:23That's no doubt.
13:24He's going to get it between the uprights.
13:26Pinheiro, you know, 32 of 41 over his career, 40 to 49 yards, 11 of 14, 50 plus.
13:33Not the greatest.
13:34Not great.
13:34But it also doesn't suck totally.
13:36So, I would feel more confident having somebody like that coming in to kick a PAT than to have Moody.
13:43It's just it had to be done.
13:45Finally, we could kind of rest a little better now and don't worry about having drives being killed by missed field goals or having momentum shifts.
13:53Because it's not just about leaving points on a board, but it's momentum shifts, too.
13:58As you know, football, it's a huge shift in momentum.
14:01It could change the whole spring of the game.
14:03So, glad to see you done.
14:05And let's just hope Kills hand me now.
14:08You know, not going to be a season-long issue, but that's another topic.
14:11But, yeah, that's my take.
14:12Pinheiro, I'll take him any day over Moody.
14:14Okay, bueno, thanks.
14:15I think what he's talking about, there's a piece of it here, too.
14:19First of all, the main thing is you don't have time to let him work out his issues.
14:24We've seen this.
14:25We've had conversations like this about James Wiseman and Trey Lance and the others.
14:30Like, when you're trying to win, you just don't have time to watch people work out their issues.
14:35But even if you think that Jake Moody's going to be good someday, sometimes it's just like, but it can't be here.
14:41It can't be here.
14:42You know what I mean?
14:43If Matt Stafford gets hurt this year, maybe Jimmy Garoppolo will come back and re-find who he used to be.
14:49But he can't do it in Vegas.
14:51You're not allowed back there anymore.
14:52No.
14:52That went so bad that you're just like, it's tainted.
14:57It's like you can't, that relationship has to be over.
15:02And I feel the same way about Moody and the Niners.
15:04A little Camilo Duvall.
15:06A little bit.
15:07A little bit.
15:07Jake Moody, Duvall.
15:09Duvall had some good moments here, and he had some rough moments, and you got to a spot where you realize he's not a bad player,
15:16but he needed to go do it somewhere else.
15:18And so you found a way to have him go somewhere else.
15:20And it's the same thing, perhaps, with Jake Moody.
15:24Inside 40 yards, Jake Moody, 90.9% for his career.
15:28Eddie Pinero, 95.7%.
15:31Yep.
15:31So that's inside of 40, which you got to be closer to the Pinero numbers, 96%.
15:36Yeah, you got to hit those.
15:37As opposed to 91.
15:38And, you know, PATs are almost identical, and they both have kicked in the extended PAT era.
15:44So the only thing that's going to be interesting, if they sign Pinero, is if it's 4th and 2 at the 38-yard line, what do you do, Kyle Shanahan?
15:55Do you bring him out for a 55-yarder, or do you go for it?
15:58Depends on the situation.
15:59And really quick, guys, before we hit a break, we have some news from Adam Schefter.
16:03The Niners are officially signing Eddie Pinero.
16:06Eddie D.
16:08Eddie De Niro.
16:09You need to stop that.
16:09Eddie De Niro.
16:10It's a one-year deal, and he's on the active roster.
16:12He can't be Eddie D here.
16:14He's passed his trial.
16:17He kicked straight.
16:18What about Ed D?
16:19Ed D.
16:21Niro?
16:22Whatever.
