00:03 - Purdy has had a stretch of football

00:04 where he was in that conversation heavily.

00:06 Then a stretch of football where people were anxiously

00:08 awaiting Sam Darnold checking in.

00:10 Now he's back to the MVP level.

00:12 Two consecutive games from Brock Purdy off by

00:14 where he has been absolutely brilliant

00:16 and is now a seven point favorite on the road

00:18 against Geno Smith, who comes into this game, Joe,

00:21 a little bit hobbled, potentially an arm injury

00:25 late in that game against the Rams.

00:26 - And I think the rushing attack will need

00:28 to be prevalent tonight and Zach Jarbonnet,

00:31 55 and a half is his number.

00:32 I think they look to run the football,

00:34 stay in manageable situations and keep Brock Purdy

00:37 on the sidelines.

00:38 Brock Purdy playing lights out and back to back games

00:41 against Jacksonville and Tampa Bay, 296 a couple of weeks

00:44 ago, last week, 333 and three touchdowns.

00:48 If he gets hot, could be lights out because Geno Smith,

00:51 we heard the report, he's not 100%.

00:53 That means a lot of short to intermediate throws, Donny.

00:56 They're going to need the rushing attack

00:58 to cover this number today.

00:59 - Yeah, Jarbonnet, you'll take a look at there,

01:01 but also you're going from a not so healthy offense there

01:03 for the Seattle Seahawks and a really healthy offense here

01:06 for the San Francisco 49ers coming out hot off that

01:08 by multiple touchdown passes like we're used to here

01:10 from Brock Purdy in those two games.

01:12 I think he throws multiple touchdowns again today,

01:14 but still, this is a road game in the division

01:17 on a Thursday.

01:17 It's a prime time game.

01:19 We know how those typically turn out,

01:20 but three heavy lines today, but I do expect

01:22 that San Francisco offense to move the football tonight

01:24 against Seattle's defense.
