00:00and now that week one is mostly in the books i have to say this the niner victory the more
00:07games
00:07i watch the better it looks i already knew obviously like a surprise victory is what it is
00:14um but the the further we get from it it keeps looking even better let us throw you we have
00:21one
00:22more game to go so this isn't like a done fact yet but to this point with one game to
00:27go it's the
00:28highest scoring week one in the history of the national football league since the merger
00:35the highest scoring week in the history of the national football league highest scoring week one
00:42since the merger okay what does that mean well um the san francisco 49ers and their new defensive
00:49coordinator raheem morris and the return of drake greenlaw fred warner and nick bosa they held the
00:55super bowl favorite they remain the super bowl favorite at this hour uh to the fewest points
01:00they've ever scored with matt stafford as their quarterback and beyond um they held them to seven
01:06points in a week one where teams averaged over 25 that's the team that was supposed to be one of
01:15the scariest offenses in the entire league and people came out firing all over the place that
01:20bills texans game don't even get me started on the bears and panthers everything that went on
01:25to me the further we got away from thursday night the better the 49ers all around we gave them a's
01:35and
01:35a minuses for every aspect of the game the further we get from the game the better it looks yeah
01:41especially for the defense and i mean to your point if you look at the other teams the jets held
01:45the
01:45titans to 10 points that's the titans and the falcons scored 13 and i think that they had their
01:52third string yes quarterback banged up qb3 right and i mean beyond that you had the panthers give up
01:5859 to the bears well they hung 37 of their own so all right chicago go ahead and you know
02:04be like loyal
02:04and marymount with um bo kimble and all the rest of those fellows back in the day and beyond that
02:10like
02:10you had teams that basically weren't very good the browns got 10 points but the only touchdown was a
02:16late late late the sean watson like hail mary throw it up for grabs they stink and the niners played
02:24like
02:24you said the super bowl favorite and you give up just seven points and i know the rams flew late
02:29and
02:29whatever they had the rest advantage you can put whatever excuse you want on it in a week where
02:34everybody scored a bunch of points except for the really bad teams the niners were awesome
02:40i love the niners won the week i love the one the entire week if you can you know and
02:46there are
02:46other candidates um the seattle seahawks beat a really good team without their quarterback
02:52that's and they were down by double digits that's that's impressive i'm not this is not like yay
02:57niners we're in san francisco seattle very impressive cardinals the cardinals very impressive i don't know
03:04how much of a contender they are so it doesn't feel the same but sure give them their credit the
03:10nfc west is uh it it might be even more than we thought it was cracked up to be the
03:15bills too i
03:16would say i mean they went to a good no team on the road in week one and they found
03:21a way to get
03:22it done late here's why i i don't put the bills on the same platform as teams like the niners
03:29maybe
03:29the seahawks the ravens and even the new york giants my big issue with the bills to this point has
03:36always been that you lean you're just josh allen and then people that's what you look like when you
03:42play there's josh allen and then there's other people wearing the same jersey out there doing
03:48stuff and that's not to take anything away from them but remember the houston texans and cj stroud
03:53couldn't score points against anyone last year and they went out there and trucked up and down the field
03:58that bills defense it to me it feels like a more refined version of what the bears went out there
04:04and did it's like we know that's fun boy it's tremendous for fantasy football good lord those
04:11games won you your game whoever you are but that's not going to win in the end you have to
04:16be able
04:17to put up some stops to people and so i still don't like the buffalo bills defense and i i
04:24i would love
04:25someday to see josh allen play with a defense and and see what he could do but the 49ers look
04:32like
04:32you got a defense seattle i know they've got a defense um you know the giants defense is interesting
04:38they're young they have some pieces the dallas cowboys throw a lot at you offensively they did
04:43enough they did a good job same thing with the ravens the colts came back that group that was really
04:48good at the beginning of last year comes back full strength and the ravens trucked them and that's what
04:54lamar jackson looks like when when he's fully healthy so and the jags i don't think the browns
04:59are actually an nfl team so it's hard to assess them but i think they're really good but those are
05:03the teams to me that are going to grab my attention first which is to say uh if you're balanced
05:10and then
05:10let's be honest the the 49ers pantsed the rams in ways that we didn't even realize last thursday
05:17miles garrett's on ir right i mean and and again so many points that we made leading up to why
05:24we
05:24don't do things on paper this week one could not have gone worse for the los angeles rams
05:31aaron donald doesn't go to australia then the rest of you who do look really tired and wish that
05:37you hadn't or had gone earlier miles garrett gets out there does not record a stat it gets home and
05:45is
05:45announced out for at least a month and you scored seven points seven i mean like and everyone else
05:52in your division one they all won and you're and you're not only a game back of all them you're
05:57kind
05:57of a game and a half behind the 49ers because you lost a division game and your schedule coming up
06:02is
06:02not very easy it's brutal it's brutal and so you come back and you hopefully get the rest you need
06:07before your monday night game but to your point like you're the only own one team even arizona came out
06:13and looked really good they beat a very good team and so doesn't mean that arizona's now like on
06:19track to go 11 and 6 and they'll be a playoff team but arizona i think one weekend as we
06:25do this
06:25overreaction monday sure like arizona's not a joke we can just say that no and i you know it's funny
06:31i never really thought they were i don't think they're good i still don't think they're gonna have
06:35a great year um to the same point that i said when you know when low and steining were still
06:41sitting
06:41here i don't know who they have on defense and i don't think that they're gonna stop good offenses
06:46you give them good their credit for what they did yesterday um but just by virtue like trey mcbride
06:52and now you've got jeremiah love back there and i like michael wilson and oh yeah kendrick born was
06:58showing up making catches kendrick born i love that the cardinals look like they've figured out that
07:02marvin harrison jr is not that good i love that they figured it's okay like you you probably messed that
07:09pickup but make him your wide receiver three look at the target share there they like kendrick born
07:14more than they like marvin harrison jr good he did make a great catch down the sideline he did he
07:20did
07:20but he got like three targets and the other two guys got like a combined 17 you can tell they
07:26and
07:26mcbride is a monster they know what they're doing on offense and their quarterback's not great but he's
07:31not terrible so they'll they'll mess with some people this year they'll probably threaten seven or eight
07:38wins maybe i mean they have to play all of those division mates twice each right it's going to be
07:43really hard it depends on you know what the schedule stack is and all the rest of it and you're
07:47right
07:47about harrison three targets one catch for 33 which was a great catch down the you know the far sideline
07:54and whatnot and so i do think that especially with algier now as they're running back he's a guy who's
07:59more
07:59than serviceable and they probably have the best receiving tight end in football apologies to george
08:04kittle right now getting healthy so yeah arizona is more real than we thought but the rams come out
08:10of that you know you go all the way down there and you get your blank handed to you in
08:16all three phases
08:16and you come back and now you have an extra day because you don't play till monday but you look
08:20around the league yesterday and it was wow there's a lot of teams that actually showed up better than we
08:25did no doubt no doubt i mean they do not like isn't there a shine that's gone don't you feel
08:31that way
08:31i know it's only week one i know the seahawks and patriots both lost week one last year and ended
08:37up
08:37in the super bowl i'm not burying the rams i'm simply saying like isn't there a shine that was
08:43there in the offseason that's gone they don't look unbeatable there are new questions that come up
08:49around them when's aaron donald play how much does he play miles garrett's gone not really sure when
08:55he's coming back like they don't look so scary right now do they they don't and the only other
09:01team that i think had the equitable shine loss was their housemates the chargers because you know the
09:09chargers were okay i mean this might be their year denver's good casey is good but the way the
09:14chargers came out and just got kind of cuffed around by the cardinals
