00:00Niners Cardinals. Listen, I know it's a big seven and a half

00:05point spread but a lot of juice expected in this one with a big

00:09time total checking in at forty-eight and a half for the

00:12Brock Purdy MVP bet that I placed. It's not just a win

00:15being necessary but it's taking advantage of an Arizona defense

00:19that is living up to its preseason billing as one of the

00:22worst in football. Jonathan Gannon, a defensive head coach

00:25has been tough uh has been tasked with a very tough

00:28assignment of turning that group into competent and so

00:31far Donnie is failing. I expect a big game out of Brock Purdy

00:36here. What are you expecting? Me too because I expect a big

00:39game out of the 49ers offense and he should be the catalyst.

00:41The only issue is going to be once they get inside that red

00:44zone is going to be Mason scoring three times or is it

00:46going to be Kittle who looks like he's going to play today

00:48is going to be Brandon Ayuk still seems like fighting his

00:50way back into that lineup and Debo Samuel. There's too many

00:53weapons today that can attack that Arizona secondary. Look at

00:56that total. I expect it to be close to 50 points not because

00:59I think Arizona is going to go up and down the field against

01:01the San Francisco 49ers guys but I think the San Francisco

01:0449ers legitimately should be into at least the low 30s in

01:08this football game. The one thing that is kind of puzzling

01:10though Joe again we 95 degree temperatures. The reason I

01:14bring this up is guys are going to be out there like tongues

01:17hanging but at the same time there might be opportunity

01:20where this offense can just go a little bit up tempo as you

01:22like to say and really run that defense right. I like the over

01:25as well and now we saw Brock Purdy break out 288 yards

01:28throwing against New England and we saw Jaden Daniels have

01:31great success 26 at 3233 made a lot of plays in the second half

01:36of that match up. I pick your poison San Francisco. I think

01:39can run it. They can throw it. They gave up 200 yards. Arizona

01:42did to the Washington offense. Brian Robinson along with Jaden

01:46Daniels. I love Purdy through the 259 and a half. I do like

01:50San Francisco because I believe Arizona is going to revert and

01:53regress back to where they should have been last year.

01:56Maybe just a four or five win football team at the at the

01:59best but their defense is atrocious like San Francisco

02:02but I do like the over with Donny as well and you know I

02:06know we laughed about it but Jawan Jennings again led all

02:08receivers last week. Three receptions, 88 yards. They're

02:12hanging on a low number yet again. Maybe you don't go with

02:14the yards. Maybe you go in terms of the touchdown scorer

02:17today. If you take a look so far in Arizona, the touchdowns

02:20they've been allowing are to the number one wide receivers

02:23which I still believe is Debo Samuel. I think he finds the

02:26end zone in this game. One boost for Arizona is Trey McBride

02:30is back in though if you look on the Niner side of it, we

02:34have talked about their injuries. Fred Warner expected

02:38a play. George Kittle as well. I want to bring this up quickly

02:42and then we'll get off this game. McCaffrey, does this guy

02:46play football this year because my gosh, the fact that he was

02:50supposed to play in that week one Monday night or up until

02:52about 2 hours before kick and now it feels like retirement is

02:56on the board is mind-blowing, Donnie. It really is because

03:00entering into the season, we really weren't the expectations

03:02I should say where Christian McCaffrey has banged up a

03:05little bit and they slow played that injury and then it turned

03:07into opening night. It was like, wait a second. He's not

03:09going to play football and he didn't now turning it into oh

03:12by the way, his one Achilles hurts and then a week later,

03:14his other one hurts as well and it's tendonitis in both that

03:17tends to not go away. Thank goodness you have Mason in the

03:20back of it. I don't know if we're going to get a late

03:22season MVP quality player that's going to be back at 100%

03:25for the 49ers and that's the way I look at it. You got to

03:28make sure it's 100%. You can't fool around with any type of

03:30Achilles type of strain or or any type of situation like that

03:34because you tear it and you're gone for an extended period of

03:36time. I'll just say this in regards to you brought up Brock

03:39Purdy. You got me believing in regards to Brock Purdy as well.

03:42The fact that McCaffrey's out of that lineup has benefited. I

03:46think in regards to the bet if they do win now multiple games

03:50with Brock Purdy throwing 288, 290, 300 and it's not to

03:54McCaffrey and maybe Debo and I think that's only a benefit to

03:58the MVP odds that maybe Purdy is now carrying this team.
