00:00Let's go to Grandy.

00:00We got Shanahan updates.

00:02What do we got?

00:02Yeah, what do you guys want to hear?

00:03Do you want to hear?

00:04I'll get to all of it, but what do you want to hear first?

00:05Injuries from the game.

00:07Game.

00:07Updates on players who might soon be coming off of IR.

00:10I want, oh, IR.

00:12Or updates on Brock Purdy and Ricky Pearsall.

00:14I'd like to save Purdy and Pearsall for the end.

00:16Yeah, okay.

00:17Let's do it.

00:17Let's go in order.

00:18In order that you presented it.

00:19Updates from the game.

00:20All right, first.

00:21Sam Okawonu has an ankle injury.

00:24Jordan Elliott also has an ankle injury.

00:26Dee Winters with a knee.

00:27Alfred Collins a shoulder.

00:28Mac Jones a knee contusion.

00:30All of those guys are day-to-day.

00:32Those are the injuries from the game.

00:34Okay, that's a good update.

00:35The Okawonu, you can see he's coming around the outside.

00:39It's just boop, boop.

00:41That was like, oh, yeah.

00:42That's a classic ankle roll.

00:44Just an ankle sprain, yeah.

00:45Low ankle sprain.

00:46Yeah, and I mean, you hope that he can come back,

00:48but how many of those guys you just listed are defensive linemen?

00:51Three, if not four?

00:53You had Collins.

00:54Sam O, Jordan Elliott, and Alfred Collins.

00:57Winters and Mac Jones, the others.

00:58All day today.

00:59Dee actually came back, and I wrote in my notes.

01:02He got hurt.

01:03He missed about three plays.

01:04Day-to-day is all you want to hear when somebody leaves the game on Monday.

01:08You just want to hear that they're day-to-day.

01:11Kyle has been pretty honest, I think, this year with the ones on Monday

01:14where he's like, they're going to miss some time.

01:17They're going to miss some time.

01:18So if everybody's day-to-day, doesn't mean that they're in this weekend,

01:21but I think that's as good as we could have hoped.

01:23Yeah, because we got Huff, and that was like, it's going to be a couple weeks.

01:25It's going to be a couple weeks.

01:26By the way, on the Monday report.

01:28Yeah, and I did not hear any update on Huff.

01:31Meanwhile, he was asked about players currently on IR that might soon be coming off.

01:35They might open their practice window.

01:37If they open the practice window, they have 21 days to add them to the active roster.

01:40Are you cowing?

01:41What do we got?

01:42So he said they expect to open the practice window for Ben Bartsch, who started left guard week one.

01:49That would help.

01:49Hasn't played since.

01:50Connor Colby's been starting since then.

01:52So he's expected to get his practice window opened on Wednesday, and he said that's it.

01:57So no IUK, no anybody else, at least not expected to open their practice windows this week.

02:01Okay.

02:02And then Ricky Pearsall asked if he's closer to coming back than last week.

02:07He said, I hope so, but still haven't been told anything new.

02:10He said he'll evaluate on Wednesday.

02:12Ricky Pearsall.

02:14And then Brock Purdy asked basically the same question.

02:16He said, quote, it's too early to say.

02:18I don't think it's a long shot.

02:20I know he's doing better.

02:21But again, they'll see how he's doing on Wednesday.

02:23I don't think it's a long shot is the opposite of what he said basically the last two weeks.

02:29So that's a maybe.

02:31Right.

02:32I don't know.

02:33For me, it's a number of things.

02:35One, your offensive line has not been great.

02:39He does give you more mobility when healthy.

02:41You're going to a place where the turf is really bad.

02:44And as I said in the crossover earlier, I don't think it matters.

02:47You're not going to make your decision based on that.

02:49But if the toe is not all the way back and your O-line's been shaky and you go to a bad field,

02:55it might have you lean in the direction of give him another week.

02:59And I don't know.

03:01I don't know either, Mark.

03:02I don't know if another week gets him from 91% to 100%.

03:06You know what I mean?

03:07The toe is probably going to be a thing all year no matter what.

03:10It might be.

03:11To me, I look at it differently because it's the National Football League.

03:16And I think you said this earlier and I'm in full agreement.

03:18And I think Kyle is too.

03:20He's already answered this when they asked him,

03:22is the fact that you're on turf these next two weeks, is that a factor?

03:27And he said no.

03:28And he's right.

03:29It shouldn't be.

03:30If turf is a factor, then you're not ready.

03:34Then you're not ready.

03:35Period.

03:36If you're ready to play football, then you're ready to play football.

03:40And that means whether you're on turf, grass, concrete, or the moon,

03:46if your body's ready, you're ready.

03:48If it's not ready, then even it being on grass would not be okay.

03:53Because you're still going to have to pivot and move and people will chase you.

03:57Big, large guys, they're going to chase you now.

04:00Right?

04:01They're going to get you sometimes.

04:02And so, if you're ready, you're ready.

04:07And I also, I don't even know if the MetLife surfaced.

04:09They did redo it.

04:11I don't know that the data from years ago is the same.

04:15So, I don't even want to call it a terrible surface.

04:17I don't know that it is anymore.

04:19I've heard that it's much better now.

04:21But I don't know that for sure either.

04:22But anyway, Mike, if he's ready to go, he's ready to go.

04:28And your offensive line not performing well,

04:31I really can't take that into account.

04:34Because that's going to be that way all year.

04:37So, I'm not, like, that's almost, like,

04:41disrespectful to Mac Jones or anybody else.

04:43Like, well, we'll stick you behind this line.

04:46But not him.

04:47Not Brock.

04:47No, like, you got it, dude.

04:49Everybody's going to be out there making mistakes,

04:51including the quarterback.

04:53Offensive linemen, too.

04:55If you're ready to play, you're ready to play.

04:58And, like, I'm excited that those guys might be ready to play.

05:02The Pearsall thing is more of an eye roll than the Purdy thing.

05:07Because it sounded like he's more positive.

05:10I mean, Grandy, you tell me, like, the way you passed that along

05:13sounded like he felt a little bit better about Brock than he did about Ricky.

05:16That was my understanding.

05:18Yeah, the Ricky thing is just starting to feel really mysterious

05:22and uncomfortable.

05:23And I think he's an incredibly important player.

05:27It sounded to me on Pearsall that it's just the same way he's answered that

05:30question for two or three weeks now.

05:31We'll see you on Wednesday.

05:33Yeah.

05:33And I know, again, I stand by my statement that I'm not giving $30 million to

05:37receivers.

05:37But, yes, I do want – there are some that certainly provide you something more

05:44than others.

05:45I wouldn't do $30 million.

05:47But it would be nice if Ricky was out there.

05:50I do think that changes the dynamic a little bit.

05:52It does.

05:53And, you know, right now you look at yesterday and you can't run the ball.

05:56And part of the reason why you can't run the ball is because you can't throw the

06:00ball.

06:00And so the defense, if you watch all the plays that the Niners had on offense,

06:05which weren't that many, by the way, I think they had 45 snaps on offense the

06:09entire game versus 80 for the Texans.

06:11But Houston doesn't have to respect your deep passing game.

06:15The one time you took a shot, you went max protect, you had seven guys block,

06:20and you sent Juwan deep, and he was open, and he didn't catch the football.

06:24That was it.

06:24That was your only deep shot.

06:26So for Houston, you don't have to really respect the passing game.

06:30You rally up for the dink and dunk, which is what they did, and you have eight guys

06:34near the line of scrimmage to crowd the run, and you dare the Niner pass game to

06:39beat you.

06:39And they weren't able to do that because you don't have Pearsall, you don't have

06:43Iuke, and Juwan actually had a great catch on that third and long that set up the

06:48touchdown to Tonjes, but other than that, you didn't really have that many deep throws

06:52that you were able to complete.

06:54No, like the whole thing is, the timing of the whole thing is off.

06:59And this is one thing that I just think we've always felt this way, but it's really

07:05crystallized this year.

07:07It's crystallized for me this year because of certain examples around the league.

07:12Baker Mayfield, Daniel Jones, to a degree, Mack Jones, because even though he hasn't

07:18been sparkly the last couple of weeks, he is 4-2 as a backup, and that's pretty damn

07:24good.

07:25And he's been able to do things because he's now in this system, and it's a better

07:29system and has better coaching and better teammates than he's ever had before in New

07:34England or Jacksonville for sure.
