00:00When Grandy fills in for you, do you, because I know you're one of these people, you still listen to the show.
00:07Occasionally.
00:08Do you hope that it's a good show?
00:10Yeah, of course.
00:11You do?
00:11I do.
00:12Okay.
00:12Yeah.
00:13But do you hope that the good stuff that's on?
00:16No, no, no.
00:17Do you hope that the good things that you hear on that show are mainly from me?
00:21No.
00:22No.
00:23You want good things to come from Mark Grandy?
00:25I'm not threatened by Mark Grandy.
00:27I'm the Brock Purdy of the Willard and Dibs experience.
00:31I've got a monster contract that I've signed.
00:35I hate Mark Grandy.
00:36No, cut the part where he says he's the best.
00:38The other job is better.
00:39I don't love Mark Grandy, but I respect him.
00:41That's more accurate.
00:43I'm not threatened by Mark Grandy.
00:45I'm just not.
00:46And maybe it's because where I am in my career and the fact that I am the Brock Purdy of this program.
00:53And, yeah, so therefore, of course, I want him to do well.
00:56I want you to do whatever it is you do, which you'll do anyway.
01:01And I want the show to do well.
01:03I don't want to, you know, be off and listen to the show and go, oh, God.
01:08Like, now I have to rush back.
01:09I have to come back off my turf toe because they can't win without me.
01:13No, our show is, we have a deep show.
01:15Lucas is awesome.
01:17Grandy's phenomenal.
01:18You do what you do.
01:19Nice job, Lucas.
01:20I love the you do what you do.
01:22If you're the Brock Purdy of this show, who am I?
01:24Uh, you're like the Colton McKivitts.
01:27You're a necessary evil.
01:29Like, I mean.
01:31Just got extended.
01:32Exactly.
01:33And, you know.
01:34Both of them did.
01:35When you don't mess up, we don't even notice you.
01:38When you don't mess up, we don't even notice you.
01:42For example.
01:43Got it.
01:44Dominic Poonie yesterday.
01:45Yeah.
01:45How did he play?
01:46I don't know.
01:47Exactly.
01:48I don't watch football like that.
01:51I'm not.
01:51When I watch it a second time, I watch a lot of that.
01:54No, like, I'm proud to say, there's some of the hosts come into this station and act
01:58like they watched the game 22 times.
02:01Just twice.
02:02No, 22.
02:03I think Shasky watches the game 22 times.
02:06And he comes in with a full.
02:09Shut up.
02:09Shut up.
02:10Shut up, Joe.
02:12Exactly.
02:13He comes in.
02:14I love you.
02:15He comes in with a full breakdown of each player.
02:19Of every player.
02:21He'll come in and he'll be like, here's what Alfred Collins did yesterday.
02:24Hey, John Jess.
02:25It's like, how do you know that?
02:29You bastard.
02:30There you go.
02:32And I PFF and I see and I get it, but I want to watch the game in an emotional way.
02:39Like, I want to feel the game.
02:41I want to feel what the fan feels.
02:44I don't want to be robotic.
02:46And that's not me saying anybody else is doing it the wrong way.
02:49I just can't do it that way.
02:51Like, I will look at how did the defensive line play.
02:57Dot, dot, dot.
02:58How did the offensive line play?
03:00What did Dominic Pune do in the second quarter?
03:03I got no idea.
03:04I know he didn't give up a sack.
03:06He had a good quarter.
03:07I know he did not have any holding penalties.
03:09I know he didn't have any false starts.
03:12So, add all those things up.
03:14And the Niners ran the ball well.
03:15I think he did great.
03:17Yeah.
03:17Because that's a unit.
03:19That's a group.
03:20They do what they do together.
03:22Dibs, they win as a team and they lose as a team.
03:24Thank you, yeah.
03:25That's how I look at it.
03:26No doubt.
03:27And I watch it once in real time and I do it exactly like you, emotional.
03:32And I'm, you know, the highs and lows, although yesterday was mostly highs and almost no lows
03:36other than the opening drive.
03:37And it was, oh, God.
03:39And I thought, okay, okay, Giants, you go up tempo and the Niners didn't really have an answer.
03:45This could be a problem.
03:45And thank you, Brian Dable, for not ever doing it again.
03:48They actually did it two other times.
03:50One time, they got a field goal.
03:52And then late in the game, you're down by three scores.
03:55And now you go up tempo.
03:56Yeah, but now nobody cares.
03:57No.
03:57Like, they're letting you have stuff at that point.
03:59So, when I watch it again and I take notes, I do look at other things like the offensive line.
04:03And I try to, like, write down when there were breakdowns.
04:06And there weren't many.
04:07And, like, Poonie and Hennessy, the interior, they were good.
04:11Burford came in.
04:12He was in and out for Colby.
04:13They kind of, I think, were swapping playing time.
04:16And he had one that was just a complete air ball.
04:19But other than that, the offensive line was good.
04:21The reason I asked you the whole granny thing is because, remember, we never really, like,
04:25dove deep on this last week.
04:28But it really caught my ear.
04:30Phil Simms said this to Shasky and Spadoni in the morning.
04:34And I fully believe him.
04:36And I think a lot of people don't believe him.
04:39A lot of people think that Phil is speaking from a different time.
04:42Back when men were men.
04:44And dirt was rubbed on all injuries.
04:46All of that crap.
04:48I, like, do you believe what Phil Simms is saying?
04:51Here, take a listen.
04:52As a quarterback standing on the sideline, the other guys out there, you want the team to win,
04:56but you hope the quarterback doesn't play real well.
04:58I mean, that's simple.
04:59And you know what's the truth?
05:00Anybody says it's not, then, you know, I'm not going to say they're lying, but they're lying.
05:04Okay, I'm not going to say they're lying, but they're lying.
05:08Brock Purdy rooting for Mac Jones right now?
05:11Probably.
05:12How so?
05:13Brock Purdy is sitting on five years in 265.
05:17Brock Purdy is...
05:18But that's not the way it works.
05:20It is when you are that.
05:22I guarantee you.
05:23Like, if you're, if it were the other way around, and Mac Jones was the starter, and he
05:30didn't have that contract, and Brock Purdy was a guy who just came in, and now Brock Purdy's
05:34carving it up, you're feeling differently.
05:36But when you're sitting on five years in 265, you're going to make 53 million next year.
05:41The job is yours unequivocally.
05:44And all due respect to Mark Grandy, this job is mine.
05:47It's not the Mark Willard experience, and I'm fighting for crumbs.
05:51It's Willard and Dibbs until it's not Willard and Dibbs.
05:54And so if I'm out, if I happen to have, I don't know, surgery, and I got about four of
06:00them lined up, and Grandy's going to have, like, long stretches of playing time, I'm
06:04not going to worry about it, because I've got that Brock Purdy contract.
06:08I'm the Brock Purdy of the Willard and Dibbs experience.
06:12Facts.
06:13So if you are the Brock Purdy of the 49ers, and Brock Purdy is the Brock Purdy of the
06:19Niners, why would you worry?
06:21Like, yeah, Mac, go out there and win all the games you can.
06:23When I'm healthy, it's my job.
06:26Right.
06:27I think maybe you're putting a different word on it.
06:30I didn't say it was worried.
06:32I didn't say it was worried.
06:34I just think, and by the way, let me put it this way.
06:39We've all got friends who've worked for all the teams, right?
06:42We know some people here or there.
06:44However, I can tell you, without a shadow of a doubt, from speaking to people within
06:53the organization, that that is a common fact on the sideline, that you are rooting for
07:01your own ass to get into the game.
07:03Like, what if I asked it to you a different way?
07:06Mac Jones is on the sideline.
07:08Before he even played, you think he's rooting for a bumper, a bruiser at some point?
07:11Something go wrong with Brock Purdy this year?
07:14I don't think he's rooting for it, but when it happens, he's thinking, it's my time to
07:19shine.
07:20And it's different when you're Mac Jones and you're making, what's he making?
07:24Three million?
07:25Four million?
07:26And you're looking for the Sam Darnold.
07:27Yeah, but your mind always goes straight to money.
07:31And I think that that's a big piece.
07:33But that's not in the competitive moments of the game.
07:36I don't believe that's where a football player's head is.
07:40I think everybody wants to get paid, but once your contract is in place, then okay.
07:46And they're all taken care of, right?
07:48Brock's got 53 million.
07:49Okay.
07:50Like, Mac Jones has done fine.
07:52He's not looking for grocery money.
07:55No.
07:55Mac's fine.
07:56Would he love to be a starting quarterback somewhere and then get everything that comes
08:01with it?
08:01Yes.
08:01But how do you think that's possible?
08:03There's only one way.
08:05When Mac Jones joins the 49ers, there's one way and one way only you're ever going to
08:10be a starting QB in the league again.
08:12And that is for Brock Purdy to either get hurt or suck.
08:16That's it.
08:17That's not true.
08:18That is your only time.
08:19Because Sam Darnold didn't have to go through that route.
08:21Sam Darnold played one game and he got to be a starter in Minnesota.
08:24Why did he become a starter in Minnesota?
08:26Because he was with Shanahan for a whole year.
08:29He didn't play.
08:29Keep going.
08:30And then he played one game.
08:32Their seventh overall pick tore his ACL.
08:35That's how he got the job in Minnesota.
08:37But he got the job not because he played here is the point.
08:40So Mac wouldn't have to play here to get an opportunity elsewhere.
08:44I disagree with you.
08:45Again, because Sam Darnold is the great example.
08:46But he did not get a starting job in Minnesota.
08:49He got a job in Minnesota to potentially be a placeholder.
08:53He got Russell Wilson's job with the Giants.
08:55And when did McCarthy get hurt?
08:57Before the season even started.
08:58Right, so he got there and he got a chance to start.
09:01He went to a situation where he had the potential to be a starter and he got to be a starter.
09:05Placeholder.
09:06He got the Russell Wilson job.
09:08And that's what Mac Jones is here.
09:09Mac Jones is starting now because Brock Purdy got hurt.
09:12No, because those are placeholder jobs.
09:14Russell Wilson and Sam Darnold knew if we go in there and they got kind of backup plus money.
09:20If we go in there, we're going to start maybe for a little while, which will give me a chance to put some good stuff on tape for four to six weeks.
09:27And then their top ten draft pick is going to come in and they're going to play.
09:31That's the job.
09:32Now Sam lucked out because he signed a deal and then the other dude ripped his leg up and he got a whole year.
09:37He balled and now he's in a completely different.
09:40Now he goes to the Baker Mayfield category.
09:42And if he keeps doing what he's doing now, I have no doubt that he will, he and Baker are both going to move into the Brock Purdy category, which is they're going to get north of 50.
09:51My point is when Matt comes to a place where you already have somebody making 50, you have one chance to put starting stuff on tape for the league.
10:03And it is for something to go wrong with the other guy.
10:06And I just think it's not that they're a-holes, you know what I mean?
10:10Like it's not that they're out there being like I-N-J-U-R-Y.
10:15What does that spell?
10:17Like they're not jerks.
10:19These are their teammates.
10:20But if you think they're not rooting for their own interests, I think you think they're not human beings.
10:27Well, you made the point about Brock.
10:29And I don't think that Brock is hoping that Mack now gets hurt so Brock can get his job back.
10:34No, I don't think he's hoping that Mack gets hurt, but I think that he, in a perfect world, the Niners win, but they win with like their run game and their defense.
10:43I don't think he needs, I don't think he's out there wanting the conversation that we are hearing.
10:50We are hearing.
10:51A lot of this fan base is like, don't come back, Brock.
10:55I don't think he wants that.
10:56He's a human being.
10:57He doesn't want fans thinking that.
11:00Somehow, with a 6-11 wonky year last year and one turnover-filled game against Jacksonville, there's a lot of members of this fan base that have decided that Brock Purdy's not a good quarterback.
11:11I see it, you see it every day.
11:13Every day, all over all of our engagement.
11:16Brock Purdy is not that good.
11:19Okay.
11:21And I don't think Brock likes that.
11:23And the only reason...
11:25I don't think that Brock even cares.
11:26I do.
11:27He's a human being.
11:29Right.
11:29You're a human being, but these are fans who have no idea what they're talking about.
11:34Like, you don't, I don't, none of them do.
11:37You're not in that locker room, and I'm sure that Kyle Shanahan and Brock and Mack and Kubiak and everyone else, they're on the same page, which is, yeah, when you're healthy, you play.
11:46So, fans, whatever you want to do, we love you, fans, but you don't get it.
11:50You don't understand how this works and what we think inside the locker room.
11:55So, fans, fan it up.
11:57We love you, fans.
11:58More on that in a second.
11:58Listen to 95.7 The Game, KGMZ FM and HD1 San Francisco and Odyssey Sports Station in the home of the Golden State Warriors and Valkyries.
12:05Always live on the free Odyssey app.
12:06And coming to you live from the Laughing Monk Studios, it is a Monster Monday presented by Merit America.
12:11Visit them at MeritAmerica.org forward slash super.
12:16Listen, yes, like, we're on the same page there.
12:20That's how the organization thinks, and I don't think they're going to act based on fans, but what happens next?
12:25Everybody has said the same thing.
12:27What if Mack comes back and he's not good?
12:30I'm sorry, what if Brock?
12:31What if Brock comes back and he struggles?
12:34Well, now you're in a situation, and that situation is born out of Mack Jones winning football games and putting up pretty good numbers.
12:45Pretty good numbers.
12:46Like, your touchdowns are outweighing your interceptions and your wins are outweighing your losses and all of those things.
12:53Again, I don't even know if the player themselves would be fully in touch with this.
12:58And none of them would say it while they're active players.
13:02This is why I love interviewing retired players.
13:05They're honest.
13:07Yeah.
13:07They don't have anything to lose anymore.
13:10But Phil Simms is saying it.
13:12I'll play it again.
13:13I believe him.
13:14As a quarterback standing on the sideline, the other guys out there, you want the team to win, but you hope the quarterback doesn't play real well.
13:20I mean, that's simple.
13:21And you know what's the truth?
13:22Anybody says it's not, then, you know, I'm not going to say they're lying, but they're lying.
13:26It's coming from a guy who had a backup, take his team to a Super Bowl victory.
13:32I have no reason to doubt what he's saying.
13:35I think it's true.
13:37You would rather, you want the team to do well.
13:39That's your team.
13:40Those are your teammates.
13:41But you don't want it to be a quarterback-focused thing because no matter what the contract is, jobs get lost in this league.
13:51Russell Wilson had a bajillion-dollar contract with the Broncos, and they were like, get out of here.
13:55And he's never really held down a starting job for that long since.
13:59And now people are questioning his Hall of Fame candidacy.
14:03In fact, I don't even think he's going to be in the Hall of Fame now.
14:06He was.
14:07That's fine.
14:08I don't think it's fine to Russ.
14:10Whatever to Russ.
14:11You know what I mean?
14:11I don't think that Russ is this.
14:13I mean, every situation's different.
14:15And if it's Phil and it's Jeff Hostetler and Hostetler comes in and leads them to the Super Bowl and they win the Super Bowl, yeah.
14:22I get there might be some FOMO, but if you're Brock Purdy and your team just gave you five years and 265 and now you're hurt with turf toe, I don't think you're rooting against Mac Jones in any way, shape, or form.
14:34If you're Brock Purdy, you're thinking, yeah, keep winning and I'll get healthy and I'll come back and maybe it's not until December or the playoffs and I'll get the job.
14:43There's no, I don't think that there's any gray area with this team and the quarterback situation that would make him feel otherwise.
14:50I think every situation's different.
14:52Phil speaks from his experience and I get that.
14:55But if you are, you know, Mahomes backup, you're not hoping that Mahomes gets hurt so that you can go out there and ball out.
15:02Like, oh, of course you are.
15:04You're in the Chiefs.
15:05Of course you are.
15:05I disagree.
15:06And like, I mean, this is from the horse's mouth.
15:09This is from Phil Simms, right.
15:10I've heard this 100 other times directly from the people.
15:15Who is Kansas City's backup?
15:16I don't even know.
15:17Exactly.
15:17It doesn't matter.
15:18It does matter.
15:19He's absolutely rooting for Patrick Mahomes to get hurt.
15:22100%.
15:23Yeah, I just don't believe that.
15:24I mean, and they would never say it that way.
15:27Of course.
15:27They're hoping for an opportunity to play.
15:30Of course.
15:31And the only way that happens is if he gets hurt.
15:33Not true.
15:33You get an opportunity late in the season.
15:35You get an opportunity for teams to head by four touchdowns.
15:38No, they want like an opportunity, dude.
15:39They want like, give me a month and a half to play.
15:43Right.
15:44Like Mac Jones has had.
15:45Sure.
15:45Mac Jones has probably changed his career arc here.
15:48Absolutely.
15:49And it's because Brock Purdy got turfed out.
15:51It's because he's in a system with a quarterback coach and a head coach that can put you in
15:57position to succeed.
15:58And you look at yesterday as a great example.
16:00And I've gone through every throw that he made a third time.
16:04And he was fine.
16:05He's not going to make anybody think about Josh Allen.
16:08It was a ton of checkdowns.
16:10A lot of underneath.
16:11Nobody's doing that.
16:12And yeah, the offense was predicated and built around the run game yet again.
16:16But that's all that most teams want.
16:18Like, if you can't get a Josh Allen or a Lamar Jackson or a Patrick Mahomes, you want somebody
16:23that can just play mistake-free and effectively move a team down the field based on your play
16:29calling and all of that.
16:30Because everyone thinks they're a great play caller.
16:32There's no NFL play caller that's like, well, he can do that with Shanahan, but he can't
16:36do it with me because I suck.
16:38Like, that's not the way any of them think.
16:39So, they all think that that's the next best thing.
16:44Go get a superstar.
16:46And if you can't get a superstar, then get someone who's really effective at running what
16:52you do and can move the ball down the field without turning it over.
16:55That's why the 49ers paid Brock Purdy.
16:58Because he's shown that that's what he does most of the time.
17:02And they feel like they can win with him because that's what they've done most of the time.
17:06Yeah, and that's why they brought in Mac Jones.
17:07So, similarly, because he can be the same kind of quarterback.
17:10So, yeah, I don't think that Brock Purdy is sitting there in his hoodie in New Jersey
17:16thinking, man, I better get back out there because Mac Jones is coming for my job.
17:20Boy, am I worried.
17:22Again, I wouldn't phrase it that way.
17:25He's not worried.
17:26He's not hoping that Mac Jones gets hurt.
17:28He is not hoping that Mac Jones gets hurt.
17:30Right, so what are we talking about?
17:31He would just prefer for this to not be talked about the way that it is.
17:36I'm sure he would prefer to be healthy and play football.
17:39And when he plays football and he doesn't do well, I'm sure that he's not going to tune
17:43in to 95-7 the game and listen to fans talk about how, boy, they should have stuck with
17:47Mac Jones.
17:48That's what they do.
17:49Well, they don't all do that.
17:51Most of them do.
17:51Yeah, and fans are, for the majority, they're not very smart when it comes to what's going
17:56on inside the walls.
17:57And so, if you're that worried about the fan reaction, then you're probably in the wrong
18:02business.
18:02I keep saying the word worried.
18:05I'm not using the word worried.
18:06Phil Simms said it and I agree with him.
18:09But Phil Simms is not talking about this situation.
18:11Phil Simms doesn't know Mac Jones and Brock Purdy.
18:14Players on the sideline do not like it when their replacement crushes it and gets a fervor
18:20going.
18:21They don't like it.
18:23They're human beings.
18:24Nobody would like that.
18:25I don't think this is that hard to process.
18:27He's not worried.
18:28He's not freaking out.
18:29He's not wondering where his next paycheck's going to come from.
18:31But no, I don't think Brock Purdy likes the fact that Mac Jones has half this fan base
18:37being like, yeah, Brock, take as long as you need.
18:40I don't think that's what he wants.
18:42I don't think that's how players and human beings think.
