00:00And I also, I'm not running to the window to back and over, I think, with the 49ers and the
00:07Titans tonight.
00:08Either Robert Sala, his former employer there, right, Shanahan, where he was the D.C., you know, in between going
00:16to the Jets and being set up to fail.
00:19Matt Jones, do we know what his status is?
00:23I don't think he's playing.
00:25No, he shouldn't be. But it really comes down to the fact that the 49ers are dealing with a million
00:32injuries.
00:33They have 14 guys or whatever it was that wasn't playing. Their offense is a complete mess.
00:39There's just not enough talent on offense for them to score points.
00:42I really think that's the case. We're not going to see Mike Evans.
00:46We're not going to see Debo. We know that Ricky Pearsall is done for the season.
00:52It's going to come down to Dajon Stribling, who was the 33rd overall pick, the first and the second round.
01:00And then DeMarcus Robinson that we're going to be seeing on offense.
01:02I just don't know if there's, and Jake Conjus, the backup tight end, because I know that Kittle's working his
01:06way back from the Achilles injury.
01:08I don't know if there's enough talent on offense to score any points.
01:12Curtis Rourke and Adrian Martinez will be your quarterbacks for the 49ers tonight.
01:17I just want that to sink in for you.
01:20Now, on the flip side, you know, I think Tennessee is very young.
01:25And, you know, giving young guys an opportunity to get reps, you know, especially it's going to be, you know,
01:34prime time out West there.
01:36Pam Ward entering his, what, second year?
01:39Everyone says he's come in the best shape of his life.
01:44Apparently, he took the offseason very seriously this year.
01:47Really looking to take that next step.
01:50Salah's a defensive guy.
01:51But then Mitch Trubisky, Will Levis, and Hendon Hooker.
01:57Not bad.
01:58The quarterback play, the experience, and the, you know, the mobile quarterback.
02:04You got Will Levis and Hendon Hooker are guys that are going to be running around in the third and
02:08fourth quarter.
02:09That are going to be, look at what Haynes King did, right?
02:13There was a reason why Carolina was successful in the second half with these mobile quarterbacks.
02:19I mean, what are you going to get from Will Levis?
02:22That's going to be interesting.
02:23But clearly an advantage for Tennessee, who's likely playing Cam Ward in the starters for at least a quarter.
02:31And, again, Robert Salah going up against his former boss, you know, he's going to want to stick it right
02:37there.
02:37And if I'm Shanahan, I'm just praying, get us out of here with nobody else hurt.
02:42That's it.
02:43Is Shanahan even on the sideline?
02:44Do we know if he's even going to be on the sideline?
02:48It's so true.
02:49You're right.
02:50You know, I said this yesterday about, you know, Salah and really just a general comment overall.
02:55It's like when a new coach is in a new spot, you know, regardless of him going up against his
03:00former team, I think he wants to turn, you know, turn the page and start a new chapter for the
03:04franchise.
03:05It's about it's about setting a tone, instilling a culture.
03:08And they're saying, listen, we may not be great, but we're going to work towards it and we're going to
03:12put in effort.
03:12So you give me Mitch Trubisky, who's probably the locked in starter for number two.
03:17The same thing that we had with Mills for Houston.
03:19He'll be the number two.
03:20Trubisky is going to be there.
03:21But Will Levis and Hendon Hooker battling it out to be the three.
03:24They drafted Nick Singleton.
03:26They drafted Cornell Tate.
03:28We're going to get enough offense, whether it's going to be, I don't think Calvin Ridley or Wondell Robinson are
03:33going to play.
03:34But Chimary Dike and Alec Iomanor, the two young guys from last year, will step up.
03:40Gunnar Helm is also an emerging tight end for them.
03:42Like there's enough offensive talent on Tennessee that they should be at least trying to instill a new culture in
03:48the franchise.
03:49And listen, Sal is a defensive guy, so he's going to bring it tonight.
03:54And he's going to make sure the defense shows up and shows out here.
03:58So, yeah, I like Tennessee.
04:00I certainly like the under in this spot tonight.
04:04And we won't see Mac Jones or Purdy for a little while.
