00:00McLaughlin we just saw his speed
00:06remains of the game and running
00:07back Stidham under pressure and
00:12Beal brings him down the ball
00:14came out the Niners say they have
00:16it the official was saying that
00:17Stidham was down by contact
00:20third down love that and number
00:22one it was good coverage down the
00:24field looked like the 49ers were
00:25sitting in two deep safeties
00:27and Stidham could not see anything
00:30open so you're gonna see he tries
00:32to take off and go vertical Robert
00:35Beal had already beaten the right
00:37tackle and one thing Rob has now is
00:40he has got turn and burn speed and
00:44he and Sebastian Vargas are able to
00:46converge on Stidham and get him
00:47down for the sack or Valdez excuse
00:49me so third down and long pressure
00:53off the edge Valdez in pursuit
00:56Stidham gets away from him keeps
00:59his feet and is able to get down
01:01inside the line to gain and the 15
01:04yard line
01:05looking like Bo Nix yeah well these
01:15quarterbacks like to take off and
01:17run and extend the plays and he's
01:18trying to feather it as long as he
01:20can he's able to get around Valdez
01:25almost takes a big shot there from
01:27Derek Canteen so big third down
01:30conversion first down and goal the
01:32first down and 10 they can still
01:33pick up the first down at the four
01:34yard line Trent Shurfield the
01:36former 49er going in motion and
01:39now lead blocking the way for
01:41McLaughlin who picks up four or
01:46five yards apart me that is Tyler
01:49Bidet the ball carrier D tackles
01:57and everyone's going to want to
01:58run as I said earlier the crack
02:00toss and getting those plays quick
02:02to the outside but everyone
02:04against this defense loves to run
02:06the duo crunch where they double
02:08off both of those defensive
02:09tackles and try to get some push
02:11on them get them spinning out of
02:13the gaps or just get movement into
02:14the linebackers well done by that
02:15Denver front the toss and that is
02:21Gifford who comes flying in the
02:23linebacker Luke Gifford the
02:25undrafted free agent back in 2019
02:27spent the last two years in
02:29Tennessee well we just saw two
02:32plays in a row and I just talked
02:33about it with teams love to do to
02:35this scheme on defense up on the
02:37line and he's just going to fly in
02:39there and beat the crack block
02:41still get the tackle and there is
02:43hot pursuit all around them with
02:46Marquis Siegel and Nick Martin both
02:48helping out well done by Luke
02:50Gifford his younger brother Isaac a
02:52rookie with Carolina had five
02:53tackles last night both of them
02:55played their college football at
02:56Nebraska now it's third down and
02:59seven 49ers back out a nine
03:02pressure off the edge and from the
03:04middle of the sack good call by
03:08Robert Sala and great execution up
03:11front by the four man rush he is
03:14showing pressure did I'm thinking
03:16there's pressure coming everybody's
03:18going to end up bail and it becomes
03:19a four man rush party gets started
03:22by Bradley and I with the swat and
03:24the rip and good eyes by Kalia
03:27Davis in a bull rush keeping his
03:29eyes on his target and is going to
03:31share in that sack with an eye
03:33Davis played 13 games for the
03:3449ers last year 42 yard are
03:36already made by Lutz this is 32 and
03:39he's got it again but after the big
03:41third down conversion the legs of
03:43the quarterback stood him the
03:44Niners defense hold strong and
03:45keeps ever to a field goal this
03:51has been a fun defensive first
03:53half for the 49ers as well
03:55especially when you consider
03:56Denver came out with all their
03:57front line players all their
03:58starters on offense and the
04:0149ers arresting a lot of guys who
04:04knows how many of those guys start
04:05day one maybe pin off maybe another
04:08guy or two but really well done
04:10schematically and then the
04:11execution and what surprised me a
04:13little bit was the tackling was
04:14really solid which is always a
04:16challenge early in the preseason
04:18and the 49ers with one joint
04:19practice historic loops seen so
04:21many joint practices are two days
04:23long did the one joint practice
04:25this week take Friday off and
04:28Cal Shanahan said the reason he
04:29doesn't like the two days is
04:30because whoever loses the first
04:32day comes back and starts to fight
04:33the second day I promise you
04:34there would have been a fight the
04:36next day it always works that way
04:38was great work and really handled
04:39well by both coaches and the
04:41players on both sides long
04:44grueling practice and and really a
04:47lot of good work for everybody
04:48across the board on both sides of
04:50the ball Dallas Flowers who had a
04:52touchback the last time long
04:53strides right up the hash marks he
04:56gets out to the 32 yard line and
04:58that's where the 49ers offense
04:59will come back out here with 429
05:01remaining in the first half of the
05:04second possession for Carter
05:06Bradley Mac Jones started this
05:16game for the 49ers when four of
05:18seven now Bradley three years at
05:23Toledo two years at South
05:25Alabama grew up in Jacksonville is
05:28dead head coach of the Jags at the
05:31time Jake ton just the tight end
05:34goes out to the top in motion and
05:39Bradley with pressure coming in
05:40his face throws it a little behind
05:42and Watkins still caught it in
05:44traffic nice snagged by the rookie
05:46good throw from Bradley into a
05:48tight window and getting wallet
05:50from behind Watkins is able to
05:52hold on it's great to have down on
05:53the field with us three straight
05:55years first team all pro getting a
05:56good look at his teammates tonight
05:58Fred Warner Fred welcome what's
06:00going on fellas what do you think
06:02so far man I'm loving what I'm
06:03seeing you know you got obviously a
06:06lot of guys you know first time
06:08players rookies young players in
06:10there competing their butts off it's
06:11a competitive ball game I love what
06:13I'm seeing I'm loving the fire
06:14loving the grid absolutely Fred
06:16and you set the standard for all
06:17those guys and they know what the
06:18bar is and these young players that
06:20are going to be asked to step up on
06:22this defense and there's going to
06:24be a handful plus just talk about
06:26you Nick de Amador the guys that
06:30have been here that are setting the
06:31standard for all those those young
06:33bucks field right I think that's
06:44what that's what it takes and then
06:45obviously challenging those young
06:46guys to be better every single day
06:47to correct the mistakes but also
06:49play with that style that we know
06:51that we want on defense and that's
06:53why I love coming out here on game
06:54day man you really get to let loose
06:55and actually hit people bring guys
06:57to the ground we do while we're
06:58missing is the ball right now yeah
07:00and I thought the tackling for the
07:01most part of that was in there
07:03Karen a Reed picked it off we'll
07:05get it back don't worry I thought
07:06the tackling which is a challenge
07:08early in the preseason those first
07:10two or three drives was was pretty
07:11darn solid yeah absolutely I mean you
07:13mentioned it like that first game
07:15especially you know preseason it is
07:17hard you know when you aren't used
07:19to taking guys to the ground but I
07:20think in the way that we practice
07:22day in and day out you know we we
07:23stress those things like tracking
07:25the near hip you know we do thud you
07:28know pretty pretty with with pretty
07:29good violence out on the practice
07:31field so when you come into the game
07:32it makes it a lot easier I love what
07:34you just said because that's your
07:35mentality when it's real right the
07:37offense just throws an
07:38interception not a not a great play
07:40offensively backs against the wall
07:42and your first reaction is that's
07:43all right we'll get it back that's
07:45right we all got each other's back
07:46stop that's right hey I that's why
07:48I'm over there looking at the
07:49defense right now I see my boy
07:50Tatum Bethune ready to get one
07:52glad he's back how good is it to
07:54have Robert Sala back in the
07:55building oh it's a game changer you
07:57know coach Sala has always been
07:59amazing from the moment I got here
08:01but now he's even gotten better so
08:03this guy's a limit with him at the
08:05helm you know so much attention not
08:07just Robert Sala but the first five
08:09picks the Niners made this year on
08:11defense three on the defensive line
08:13what have you seen from these a
08:15defensive rookies yeah we need we
08:16needed those picks man you know
08:17obviously we lost a lot of pieces
08:18this offseason and we needed to
08:20fill those boys that those guys
08:22created and I think the guys have
08:23been doing an amazing job you know
08:25you hear guys like Upton Stout man
08:27who who've just been standing out
08:28big-time obviously the all the
08:29defense alignment that we that we
08:31drafted Nick Martin's coming along
08:33and so everybody's doing a great
08:34job man even Mark Marquis as
08:36safety today has been making some
08:38huge hits that I've loved seeing
08:39so although you're about to get
08:40the other one right now so I love
08:44the way that they're coming along
08:45man there they all got that that
08:47thing that that is factor that
08:48you're looking for we know the
08:50fans will not get to see you've
08:51seen a lot of them and Michael
08:53Williams the first round pick
08:54Fred I think boy the sky's the
08:56limit for him and his talent but
08:58I've been telling with some of the
08:59injuries CJ West and Alfred
09:02Collins I said you guys better get
09:03ready for the crunch play and the
09:04crack toss because they're going to
09:06try to double you out of there just
09:07get ready for it yeah you know it's
09:08beautiful for them that they have
09:10this opportunity in their in their
09:11in their hands right now you know
09:12usually when young guys come in
09:14they're not able to get the amount
09:15of snaps or the opportunities that
09:16these guys are getting so it's up
09:18to them man the work that they put
09:19in being able to correct those
09:21mistakes on the fly the sky's the
09:23limit for all of them honestly you

09:38job and so many other jobs and we
09:40know Greg is watching right now is

10:02love you much love to you every day
10:03and you cannot wait till you get
10:05back it'd be one more thing for John
10:08Lynch to do during 49ers practice
10:10he joked this week is to keep Greg
10:12out of the huddle he he could he can
10:17roam out there he's just looking for
10:18info he wants content he wants to
10:20get it right for the fans nobody like
10:23him and we look forward to giving
10:25him a big hug soon Greg we love you
10:27know he'd be grinding this tape
10:28Jared Stidham on second down gets
10:31it out quickly to Troy Franklin and
10:34breaking down Chase Lucas for the
10:36tackle it looked like Jared Stidham
10:44pumped out to the left and he wanted
10:46to go to deep deep but the real
10:47looter there's nobody took the bait
10:49as he looked down the sidelines
10:51things were covered up and again well
10:53done by Chase Lucas and Tatum
10:55Bethune keeping it in front of you
10:57rallying up and making a short
10:58tackle Chase Lucas has been
11:00everywhere in this game and I am
11:02fired up for him 49ers got the
11:05ball to start this game so
11:06Denver's going to have it in the
11:07second half big third down here
11:09Niners have stood strong in the
11:10red zone twice forcing field
11:12goals third down and five for
11:15Stidham bidet the back off his
11:17left shoulder.
11:23That's how quick and it's caught
11:26for a first down to Pat Bryant the
11:28rookie third rounder out of
11:29Illinois.
11:30That's a good that's a good read
11:32right there from the QB just
11:34unloading it versus the off
11:35coverage the 49ers were showing
11:37pressure everybody bailed out
11:39Bryant runs the out route and it
11:42got dropped right in the bucket
11:43on time in front of Darrell Luter.
11:45Well Fred Warner by the way.
11:55Three straight AP first teams all
11:58pro first teams if he does it
12:00again this year he'll match
12:01Patrick Willis is five all pro
12:03teams in eight seasons pressure
12:05from both corners and that is
12:07Donovan Bailey who's able to
12:09hold on with Nick Martin on his
12:11back first.
12:12San Francisco a 30 second time
12:17out another good game plot to
12:19135 135 please on the short
12:23crossing route over the middle of
12:25the field just dragging across
12:26Stidham because the pressure was
12:28converging on him Bailey just
12:31runs the shallow cross and he's
12:33able to put it right on the money
12:34so that Nick Martin couldn't
12:37really have an impact in defending
12:39that two good plays by Stidham.
12:41It's clear to everybody that we're
12:43not seeing Fred Warner on defense
12:44right no Renardo Green no
12:45Diomedo Lenore Nick Bosa but the
12:47guy that nobody has seen in a
12:49game yet but all these Niners are
12:51excited about you heard Fred say
12:52it is Upton Stout who might start
12:54at nickel this year.
12:55I think he will unless something
12:57changes now Chase Lucas is
12:58playing well but the rookie
12:59third round pick is tenacious
13:01angry processes he has been
13:04everywhere and it's such a key
13:06position in this defense
13:07defending the run in the and the
13:09ball start offense five yard
13:12penalty first down tough penalty
13:14for the top penalty for Denver
13:16they have the Niners defense
13:17scrambling a little bit there
13:18before the snap.
13:24Well Sean Payton loves these
13:25situations now when you talk
13:26about the money zone and having
13:28an opportunity to execute down
13:31in the in the red zone trying to
13:32punch it in and conversely
13:33Robert Sala feels the same way
13:35getting work.
13:37Nobody wants to have their backs
13:38against the wall but to have
13:39these opportunities in the
13:40preseason to bow your neck and
13:42come up strong is big for solid
13:46still with time padding it wide
13:49open is the tight end and Lucas
13:53crawl saying where is everybody.
13:56Yeah well the Robert Sala and
13:59Gus Bradley over on the
14:00sidelines are saying the same
14:01thing and Daniel Bullock's the
14:02secondary coach because that
14:04was clearly a coverage
14:06breakdown.
14:09Chase Lucas is playing inside on
14:11what looked like the whip
14:12route and hard to say but I
14:14believe looter should have
14:15stayed out there and played out
14:18in the corner and there was
14:19nobody there.
14:20You saw two defenders there go
14:21with the end cut crawl goes to
14:23the corner of the end zone and
14:25nobody within 10 15 yards of
14:30good celebration.
14:31Now we'll let's on for the
14:32point after got a couple of
14:33field goals already in this
14:34game so Denver has the lead for
14:36the first time but you talk
14:37about situations now Tim now
14:39the Niners get a situation 1
14:4130 left two timeouts here
14:43before the half.
14:47Yep starts with the return
14:48game that's an area now that
14:49Kyle Shanahan knows.
14:50This is their third special
14:52teams coach and this is Kyle's
14:53ninth year Hightower first.
14:57Then coach Schneider over the
14:58last couple of years and then
14:59now here comes Brant Boyer from
15:01the New York Jets and and
15:03Boyer is to me the real deal.
15:05Not that the other guys were
15:06not but this is a guy who did
15:08it for 11 years in pro
15:09football.
15:11Despite the coaches they ran
15:12through and in New York you
15:14know including Robert Sala.
15:17Boyer always managed to stick
15:19the stick because he coaches it
15:20the right way.
15:21He coaches the players the right
15:22way and he maximizes effort from
15:25those guys because so much
15:26special teams is there's a lot
15:28of scheme to it now.
15:29There's no question and there's
15:30Boyer there.
15:31You can tell that he's just
15:32fired up.
15:33I mean he is a he's like a
15:34Robert solid guy.
15:35He's going to bring the energy
15:36to that room into the field.
15:38Glad to have Dallas Flowers to
15:42return this after the twenty five
15:44yard line.
15:45I think Brant Boyer could strap
15:46it up.
15:47Yeah.
15:49His neck may not agree but I'm
15:51with you on that.
15:53All right.
15:54So one twenty four now for the
15:56forty Niners.
15:59This is where the coaches love
16:00about those joint practices is
16:01you can create situations you
16:02don't always get them in games
16:03but they go around here.
16:04Correct.
16:08So Carter Bradley in relief of
16:11Mac Jones here in this first
16:13half we'll see Tanner Mordecai
16:17in the second half a little bit.
16:20Junior Bergen getting some
16:21offensive snaps.
16:22He's the man that just went in
16:23motion.
16:24Here's Corey Kiner running into a
16:26plow gets a couple of yards.
16:29Kiner who started his career at
16:31LSU.
16:32The last three years at
16:34Cincinnati.
16:35The second timeout.
16:36Sean Payton playing along
16:37playing the game as well.
16:38He takes the timeout.
16:39He set the game clock to one
16:40twenty one.
16:41One two one please.
16:44The 49ers today also signed
16:46Keyshawn Vaughn.
16:49Who.
16:51Played a handful of games on the
16:52practice squad for the forty
16:53Niners the running back last
16:54year.
16:59Boy I can't wait.
17:01When it gets here and it's real
17:03and you see Kittle right there
17:04who's best tight end in forty
17:06Niners history and such a key
17:07obviously receiver and weapon
17:08for Brock Purdy but a great
17:10blocker.
17:11Christian McCaffrey I'm telling
17:13you is back and he is angry and
17:16ready for a big year.
17:17Remember rushing champion twenty
17:19twenty three for Christian
17:20McCaffrey.
17:21Quick throw for Bradley this is
17:24Russell Gage nobody blocking and
17:26Robinson is able to tie him up.
17:28Q Robinson brings him down now
17:29Denver is second charge going to
17:31take another timeout Denver a
17:33thirty second timeout.
17:36We mentioned Brock a new dad
17:38Christian McCaffrey a new dad as
17:39well.
17:40There's a new CMC Colette McCaffrey
17:43his baby back for his ninth year
17:47and healthy right now from that
17:49the bilateral Achilles
17:50tendonitis than the PCL late.
17:52Yeah.
17:53And and again he was just getting
17:54back in that game in Buffalo.
17:55You could see the old Christian
17:57McCaffrey the all pro that he
17:58is and until he had that injury
18:00on that frozen field.
18:01So both of these young guys
18:02Correndo had a very good year
18:03last year but he and Jordan
18:05James both dealing with some
18:06injuries.
18:07This guy to me I think was a
18:09really good signing in Amir
18:10Abdullah with the Raiders the
18:12last three years.
18:13He brings a lot to the table
18:15in terms of the ability to run
18:17and then in the passing game
18:18Patrick Taylor's just a pro.
18:20And we've seen already Corey
18:21Kiner making a couple of nice
18:22runs.
18:23Third down Bradley steps in and
18:25that's broken up.
18:26He was looking for Watkins and
18:28getting a hand in there was
18:29Chris Abrams drain.
18:30And so the 49ers will have to
18:31punt after what was about when
18:34you don't count the return of
18:36the 14 second possession.
18:39Well good good protection by
18:41the offensive line and Carter
18:44Bradley gets to his back foot
18:46and just absolutely drills this
18:48Jordan Watkins.
18:49I don't know if his depth was
18:51he wasn't past the line to gain
18:53the sticks as he came back for
18:54that football.
18:55But again that's twice would
18:56love to see him drive back
18:57harder for that football.
19:00Thomas Morstead punting from
19:02his tent to Courtney Jackson.
19:05Jackson's got a lot of room to
19:08roam.
19:09He bobbles it a little bit again.
19:10Darrell Luter is able to make
19:12the play and then John Weeks the
19:13new long snapper is there.
19:15You're 39 years old.
19:17You're 16 still making tackles.
19:22There he is.
19:24Love that.
19:26He's been a nice fit here.
19:28There Cole Anderson the
19:29assistant special teams coach
19:31very good player in this league
19:32in his own right.
19:33Coaching these guys.
19:35I'm telling you it's
19:36methodical now in terms of all
19:38the scheme and all the coaching
19:39that it's going to end up guy.
19:41700 plus snaps during the course
19:43of the year and Boyer knows it
19:44and knows how important it is.
19:46As does Kyle Shanahan.
19:47So 59 seconds Denver used a
19:48couple of timeouts on defense
19:49to try and set up here a
19:50possession before the locker
19:51room instead of gets that out
19:52quick to bidet.
19:54But he can't get out of bounds
19:55so the clock keeps ticking.
20:00Just soft zone keeping it all
20:02in front of them.
20:03Kalia Davis again having it
20:04being a little factor in terms
20:05of forcing the throw.
20:16Stidham steps up on the money
20:18and there's Trent Shurfield the
20:19former 49er.
20:20Thanks to catch.
20:21That's a good concept.
20:22Good play call and good
20:23execution by Stidham stepping
20:25up in the pocket and throwing
20:27it right in the hole.
20:29See the rush coming to the
20:30outside.
20:31He's going to throw it outside
20:32and Nick Martin behind the
20:33corner.
20:34And in front of Derek Canteen.
20:36Well done.
20:37Good timing.
20:38On that routing and throw.
20:40Nineteen yard play.
20:58Play clock is down and.
21:00Stidham gets it off.
21:01Now he loads up again.
21:02Now he loads up again.
21:03Shurfield again.
21:05And he caught it.
21:07Touchdown Broncos.
21:13Boy what a catch by Shurfield
21:15all the way to the ground.
21:16He holds on to it.
21:17Dallas Flowers is in good
21:19position.
21:20What a throw from Stidham
21:21because it was that last two
21:23steps is where the separation
21:25happened.
21:26You can see Flowers great
21:27position.
21:28Eye on the ball.
21:29He took his eye off the ball.
21:31You start seeing a little bit
21:32of separation and really well
21:33done by.
21:35Shurfield to come down with that
21:36football on his fingertips and
21:38pinning it.
21:39To his face mask and then
21:40pulling it in.
21:41Did he have that ball secured
21:42while both feet were still
21:43down.
21:47Look like that left toe may have
21:48been right there before that
21:49ball was.
21:51Really possessed.
21:52All these guys get a good look
21:53at it.
21:54The Niners have the biggest 4K
21:55video screens.
21:56They just put them in this
21:57year.
21:58In the league.
22:0070 percent larger and they are
22:02clear.
22:03Well the question is is he is he
22:05bobbling it.
22:06And you could certainly argue
22:07that he is there on his
22:08helmet.
22:09Did that left toe stay in
22:10bounds.
22:11I think it did.
22:12And he finished it through the
22:13field ruling of a touchdown
22:16is under review.
22:17Right foot down still bobbling
22:22left foot.
22:23Looked like he was able to
22:24throw the inside of that heel
22:25down on the green grass and
22:27then came down and possessed
22:28the football.
22:29And the question right is is
22:30this going to be clear and
22:31obvious to overturn that he
22:32didn't have it.
22:38Dallas Flowers certainly making
22:39the argument.
22:40Of course when I see a Trent
22:43Shurfield touchdown I think of
22:44one of the most wild days in
22:45recent 49ers history when he
22:46caught a touchdown to start the
22:48game for the Miami Dolphins.
22:50And a few plays later the
22:53Brock Purdy party began after
22:55Jimmy Garoppolo got hurt and
22:56it felt like oh what is going
22:57to happen to this 49ers season
22:58and Brock Purdy came in and
23:00kept it on the tracks.
23:01Under ridiculous.
23:02And it's going to happen to
23:03this 49ers season and Brock
23:04Purdy came in and kept it on
23:06the tracks.
23:07Under ridiculous.
23:08Relentless pressure.
23:12From the Miami defense just
23:13throwing everything including
23:15the kitchen sink at Brock and
23:16he had answers for all of it
23:18which was amazing.
23:19So Trent Shurfield has a place
23:20as a player and as a moment in
23:2249ers history.
23:23The call on the field was
23:25touchdown.
23:29What a throw from Stidham.
23:31I mean he just put that right
23:32where Shurfield could go get it.
23:35Flowers have pretty decent
23:36coverage balls getting pulled
23:37in right there.
23:38Both feet look like they were in
23:39and the left foot.
23:41Rolling on the field stands as
23:42called touchdown.
23:44That's the right ball.
23:49They're over the Niners the
23:51video ability in the stadium is
23:54off the charts over three
23:55dozen cameras here that can all
23:57be accessible to the replay
23:58center.
24:00And we we saw how good those
24:02looks were from our cameras and
24:04enough there to confirm the
24:07second touchdown in as many
24:08possessions or at least uphold
24:10the second touchdown in as many
24:11possessions for Denver.
24:12Denver striking quick here.
24:14Sean Payton's group executing
24:16the end of the half.
24:17Great.
24:18And they're going to get the ball
24:19first.
24:20And they're going to get the
24:21position obviously the the
24:22green read interception deep in
24:23forty nine or territory.
24:25I don't think Carter Bradley
24:26ever saw him as he unloaded
24:27that football right to to the
24:29linebacker.
24:30And then a nice return.
24:32On a couple of missed tackles.
24:35A couple of big plays from
24:36from Stidham who made some nice
24:37throws.
24:39Including that touchdown which
24:40was right on the money.
24:4120 straight Denver points after
24:43the 49ers remember took the
24:44ball they won the coin toss they
24:45took the ball Mac Jones let him
24:48down eight eight to play
24:50touchdown drive and then get a
24:51safety on an intentional
24:52grounding in the end zone from
24:53bone X sustaining drives
24:55obviously after the the first
24:57one has been a challenge the
24:58pressure on the second drive
24:59was all over Mac Jones and then
25:01two of the next three of the
25:02two of the next three of the
25:04the first one has been a
25:06challenge the pressure on the
25:07second drive was all over Mac
25:08Jones and then two of the
25:09next three interception.
25:12Amir Abdullah is going to
25:13return this for the 49ers and
25:15he gets out to about the 31
25:17yard line 21 seconds two
25:19timeouts and back comes Carter
25:22Bradley.
25:28And I don't think Carter's done
25:29at the half I think because he's
25:31still trying to figure out this
25:34Kyle Shanahan scheme I think he
25:36could play certainly in through
25:37the third quarter before.
25:39Tanner Mordecai just resigned gets
25:41on the field.
25:42Clay Kubiak calling plays today we
25:43should say as well for the 49ers
25:45as he did in the preseason last
25:47year and week 18 against the
25:49Arizona Cardinals.
25:52And Kyle Shanahan lifted open for
25:53him to perhaps call plays in the
25:55next two preseason games as well.
25:57Bradley getting hounded tries to
25:59throw it away.
26:00It goes bouncing backwards out of
26:02bounds.
26:03It was Jonah Ellis on his back.
26:07Well we saw issues earlier with
26:09Burford on on Bonito and this
26:11time it's Ellis that's able to
26:13turn the corner on the big right
26:16tackle Austin Pleasance is going
26:17to be grounded.
26:31Jonah Ellis whose dad was a great
26:32NFL player Luther who throws for
26:34the line rounding number 14
26:36offense 10 yard penalty loss of
26:39down.
26:40That foul also involves a 10 second
26:42runoff.
26:43Please set the game clock to three
26:44seconds.
26:46The clock will start on my
26:48correction Sam fan will use a
26:50timeout to avoid the 10 second
26:51runoff.
26:53What a wicked move there by
26:54Ellis jumping inside the big
26:55body of Pleasance who's done a
26:57nice job as they look for that
26:59tackle but he gets a wide set and
27:01Ellis sees that Kiner's up there
27:02to help with some chip and he's
27:03got the foot speed not quite as
27:06big as his pops was the interior
27:07player for the Lions and he was
27:09a great player but jumps inside
27:11and then still able to leverage
27:13out back out and force that
27:14grounding by Carter Bradley dad
27:16twice a pro bowler Jonah
27:18Ellis made the all rookie team
27:19last year in his first year out
27:21of Utah Niners took the timeout
27:23they got one remaining they can
27:25try and get Corey Carter some
27:27action here and he gets a chunk
27:29of it back.
27:31Man the 49ers are going to do
27:32the 49ers are going to take their
27:34final timeout San Francisco a
27:36thirty second timeout third
27:39timeout correction safe to say
27:42the Niners are playing this end
27:43of half a little differently
27:44than they would in the regular
27:45season I would think and hope
27:49yeah not a lot of I mean
27:54obviously they want to handle
27:56this situation the right way
27:57but these preseason games there
28:00is not a lot of game planning
28:01it is putting guys in position
28:03and to see if they can come up
28:04with the answers it's all about
28:05evaluation every snap so
28:10valuable so third down and 12
28:13here with six seconds left
28:16before the break pressure in
28:21Bradley's face and he dumps it
28:22down to Corey Kiner he's got a
28:24little running room gets a block out
28:26in front from Drake Nugent and
28:29that is how the first half will
28:30end the first half 49ers jumped
28:33out to a nine nothing start 20
28:35unanswered from the Denver
28:37Broncos Debo's gone but it's
28:41changed still here coming up on
28:43the Toyota halftime show for
28:45Glenn standing by with Lorenzo
28:46O'Neal and we'll hear from 49ers
28:48quarterback Brock Purdy
28:53Tim Ryan Guy Haberman I'm in for
28:54the voice of the 49ers Greg Papa
28:56football is back 183 days the
28:59Super Bowl will be right here at
29:00Levi Stadium it's good to see ball
29:02down on that grass today there's
29:03no no question about that the
29:05quest is on for 32 teams in the
29:08NFL and a lot of good things I
29:09think for the coaches to
29:10evaluate obviously not happy with
29:12the 20 unanswered points by the
29:14Denver Broncos but turnovers on
29:17offense the two interceptions
29:18were obviously big and in bad
29:21areas of the field couple of
29:22penalties but I thought a lot of
29:24good things to look at you know
29:26Mac Jones to Jordan Watkins on a
29:29on a slot fade 50 yard play early
29:31in the game really nice hookup big
29:33catch from Jordan Watkins then he
29:35had an interception but you know
29:38where I think the receiver Jordan
29:39could have the rookie could have
29:40helped Mac Jones out a little bit
29:41on that route but a lot of good
29:43football Chase Lucas I thought
29:45was everywhere which was good to
29:46see on the defensive side of the
29:48ball the 49ers opened the game
29:52by winning the coin toss and
29:53taking the football and Mac Jones
29:56had that eight play scoring drive
29:59to start it off finished with a
30:01solid run to by Patrick Taylor
30:03with Talanoa who Funga the huff
30:06and puff man sitting right in the
30:07hole and Patrick Taylor saw him
30:09foot in the ground bounce to the
30:11edge and out raced the corner to
30:13the pylon for six so Mac got a
30:15few series then it was Carter
30:16Bradley we'll see Tanner Mordecai in
30:20this second half as well you know
30:27one guy we have not talked about
30:28yet today we're not going to see
30:29today but while we have a moment
30:30worth pointing out Ricky Pearsall
30:32has had a really good camp shake
30:34and bake but I like to call him
30:36because he's got a lot of shake
30:37which is going to equal a lot of
30:39bake I love Ricky obviously he
30:42came on at the end of last year
30:43over 200 yards receiving in the
30:45final two games but he is an
30:47attention to detail guy and so
30:49much of this offense when you get
30:51to the icing on top is is about
30:54the details and the route running
30:56and the tempo and you know being
30:58able to make some adjustments
30:59when you're in your route and
31:00Ricky I think is going to
31:02continue to grow enormously as
31:05his role grows I'm looking for a
31:07big year out of Ricky P Jake
31:10Moody who's had a extra point
31:13opportunity today which he made
31:14that's all so far for the 49ers
31:17kicker and he sends this into the
31:19end zone a touch back again new
31:21this year that touch back now
31:23comes out to the 35 yard line so
31:25great starting field position for
31:27Denver Jared Stidham back out the
31:35Denver backup quarterback QB 2
31:38behind Bo Nix look at that first
31:43half 10 of 11 and the one rush he
31:46had was 18 yards was a huge third
31:48down and long conversion yeah it
31:50was big and the touchdown to
31:52Shurfield was an absolute dot great
31:55throw beats decent coverage by
31:57by Flowers and that was a great
31:58throw and a very good catch by
32:00Shurfield along the side of the
32:03end zone 20 unanswered and a couple
32:05scores in a flurry at the end of
32:06the first half this is Odrick
32:09Estime with his first carry of the
32:11day and chase Lucas I let's not
32:14feel so long ago the first quarter
32:15when the Niners were up nine
32:16nothing and into that second
32:17quarter he's had a very good game
32:19so far tonight he's flashing
32:20everywhere just as he's done
32:22throughout training camp and
32:23again you can see that his his
32:27spirit is contagious with
32:29everybody and he's got it day in
32:30and day out the guy loves
32:32football and another big play for
32:33him this time in the run game
32:34practice is filled right with him
32:36if he's involved it is there is
32:38talking there is chatter there's
32:40activity instead of on the move
32:43there's Trent Shurfield again and
32:44a first down looking like a well
32:48oiled operation right now for
32:49Denver well Shurfield knows how
32:51to run these keepers and nobody
32:53picks him up as he's going to
32:55come from the right side of your
32:56screen and Nick Martin's and it
32:58looks like he's late to the
33:00party the rookie Derek can team
33:02who's playing safety and
33:04certainly has played a lot of
33:05corner as well neither one of
33:07those guys are there and well
33:08timed up there 16 yards on the
33:11pickup for the Broncos
33:15stood him with the 13th first
33:19down for Denver's offense
33:20tonight now he gets it out quick
33:24again that was almost picked up
33:26chase Lucas nearly got there the
33:28tackle made by James and the
33:29tackle made by Jacob Robinson the
33:32rookie undrafted free agent from
33:34BYU flag on the play look at
33:38Lucas come flying through here
33:39well he's anticipating so he's
33:41kind of understanding what
33:42they're trying to do formation
33:44offense an eligible receiver
33:47was covered at least decline
33:49second down and I will tell you
33:52this about Jacob Robinson and he
33:54is undrafted free agent out of
33:56BYU he is not very bad at the
33:58he is not very big when you look
34:00at his size five ten hundred
34:01eighty hundred eighty five
34:02pounds but this guy can mirror
34:05and he can he can really cover
34:07and stay in a guy's hip pocket
34:09he has been impressive
34:10especially for an undrafted guy
34:13for three nine forty reported
34:14at his pro day stood on their
34:16sure field again and Stone
34:17Blanton's able to clip them a
34:19flag comes in at the end of the
34:20play shy of the line to gain pass
34:27interference number five
34:29offense ten yard penalty replay
34:31second down it's on sure field
34:34gets a little push off as he's
34:35trying to drive back to the
34:36football back to the point on
34:51Robinson he was a team captain of
34:52BYU you know that takes a mature
34:54guy you're going to be a team
34:55captain of BYU and no doubt and
34:56that guy can play again he's
34:58they'll tell you why he's not
34:59very big it doesn't matter if you
35:01can run and anticipate what routes
35:03are and read routes and get right
35:04in the guy's hip pocket he has
35:05been all around the football
35:07Stidham on the move again and
35:09this time he will tuck it and
35:11he stays in bounds and picks up a
35:14few extra yards it looked like
35:15Jalen Allen would be able to
35:16usher him out and Stidham showed
35:18his legs today Stidham's got some
35:20foot speed because I'm going to
35:21tell you Jalen Allen can run and
35:25he's just trying to work outside
35:26and he's trying to get off a
35:27block and Stidham just turns the
35:28corner and then Stidham just
35:29turns the corner and then stays
35:31in bounds till the last second
35:34he's able to get him to a third
35:35and still long he'd love to see
35:37the 49ers get on the time of
35:39possession was brutally in favor
35:40of Denver in the second quarter
35:42love to see the defense get off
35:44the field here on this third
35:45and long 49ers showing a little
35:49bit of pressure they back out
35:52bring four Stidham steps up
35:54Stidham's going to tuck it and
35:55run Stidham looking for the
35:56sticks and he gets stoned up
35:58the ball came out it's still loose
36:02and who fell on it the 49ers are
36:06pointing saying they got it was
36:08it Siegel that came up with the
36:10hit was it Trey Brown somebody
36:13knocked it out if Stidham's not
36:15going to slide they're going to
36:16lower the field fumble recovered
36:19by the fumbling team for down Nick
36:23Martin there and it's Trey Brown
36:25who punches it out that is
36:26absolutely perfect Stidham can't
36:29corral the ball starts bouncing
36:31around getting kicked getting
36:32moved Denver ends up with the
36:35recovery but it's fourth and
36:36eleven so I pushed him away from
36:39any decision whether to to go
36:41forward or attempt a long field
36:42goal Jeremy crush the Aussie on the
36:46punt and send it to Amir Abdullah
36:49who's back at the 10 yard line
36:5111th year man is convention
36:53earlier on the Raiders last year
36:54were touched the ball a lot flag
36:57comes in fair catch at the 20
36:59flags on the other side of the
37:00field looks like this is going to go
37:10against San Francisco during the
37:13kick holding over 38 receiving
37:16team 10 yard penalty first down
37:19timeout that's Jalen Mahoney
37:22Carter Bradley back out for the
37:2349ers a quarterback when we
37:24return.
37:30He's ago young Millie on July 25th
37:36and he'll talk to Vern coming up
37:39in the broadcast a little later
37:40tonight and you just watch him as
37:43I know you do around the facility
37:44all the time with with Brock
37:46Purdy Tim what does he mean to
37:47this organization.
37:48Well he's the face of the
37:49organization certainly on the
37:50offensive side of the ball and
37:52all the responsibility that comes
37:54with being the quarterback which
37:56is a lot of pressure obviously
37:57with this franchise in the
37:59I mean this is a crown jewel and
38:01he deserves it he earned it and
38:03he is going to be the same guy
38:05every day and Kyle Shanahan knows
38:07it coming to work being steady
38:09he you see him in the weight room
38:11pre-practice and he's doing all
38:13the same exact things day in and
38:14day out that he did from day one
38:16when he got to the 49ers is Mr.
38:18Irrelevant and he's just
38:20continued to get better and better
38:22and again the best thing he does
38:23is process read defenses and
38:25deliver the mail on time Jake
38:27Todd just wide open he comes back
38:30to make the catch out to the 30
38:33and a big pickup for Carter
38:34Bradley and to give the 49ers
38:36some breathing room and Jake's
38:40going to have an opportunity now
38:41he is in a battle with Brayden
38:42Willis if in fact they keep four
38:44tight ends and gets dropped in
38:46coverage did he catch that or did
38:48that ball go down and hit the
38:49ground not a great throw there but
38:54Jake Tom just wide open and that's
38:56one thing they're going to review
38:57this or take a look at it and be a
38:58challenge flag over there from
39:00from Sean Payton I think it I
39:03think it hits the ground it looks
39:05like it slipped through the
39:06basket Denver's challenging the
39:10ruling of the field of a
39:11completed pass we'll review the
39:13play and those are the plays
39:15when you're in a battle and
39:16Tonjes he's a local guy from Los
39:19Gatos High School went to Cal works
39:22his tail off was a very good
39:23player as an undrafted player in
39:25Chicago had some injuries came
39:26here has been on practice what he
39:28can run he can get open you've
39:30got to make those catches you
39:45good
39:54family
39:58soccer
40:05and
40:06they
40:38To review, the ruling on the field stands as called, first down, San Francisco.
40:58Denver will be charged with their first timeout.
41:10Denver will be charged with their first timeout.
41:22Denver will be charged with their first timeout.
41:28Denver will be charged with their first timeout.
41:42Guy, I told you, when you're Jake Tonjes and you're in a battle for a position on this team,
41:46he made these catches, and by God, he did.
41:48He made it.
41:49It went under review.
41:50I don't think the ground helped him catch it.
41:52The ground can certainly touch the ball the way these officials look at it.
41:55Called a catch on the field.
41:57I'm glad they stayed with it.
41:58Nobody happier than Jake Tonjes.
42:00I promise you that.
42:01And Carter Bradley, he's number two.
42:03No question.
42:04So, 18-yard pickup.
42:06After the review, Denver loses a timeout.
42:09Corey Kiner keeps his feet and chugs for a couple more.
42:14Number one in college football last year in forced missed tackles was Ashton Jinty, the Raiders pick.
42:20Cam Scatterbrook at ASU was number two, and Corey Kiner was number five.
42:24And you can see why right here, a really good double team out on the edge.
42:27Brayden Willis, Drew Moss, right guard, gets a nice block down.
42:31And then Corey Kiner with that lower body strength and that lower center of gravity, able to run through tackles.
42:37Back at it, trying to burrow his way for a couple yards.
42:41And he's got the first down.
42:43And when you think of Bobby Turner, 30-year running back coach,
42:47arguably the best in the NFL at what he does,
42:50and all the guys in Denver and here that he's able just to plug in and train.
42:54And it is precise now, Guy.
42:56I'm telling you, if you can watch how precise Bobby Turner is when he's coaching these guys on where their landmarks are,
43:03what they're looking for, how to put their foot in the ground and chew up that grass in front of them.
43:07No surprise that Corey Kiner is a nice fit for this scheme.
43:13Jake Tonjes in the backfield and that ball is batted back out of the hands of Bradley.
43:20Well, it's so much fun to talk football with Bobby Turner.
43:251995, the 49ers and the Broncos played a exhibition game in Tokyo.
43:30It was Mike Shanahan's first year as the head coach in Denver after Pat Bowen snuck into the Niners hotel
43:36after the Super Bowl the year before and offered him the job.
43:39And that game is famous.
43:40That Tokyo game is famous because it's the day that Terrell Davis started his NFL career.
43:45He wasn't going to play on offense.
43:46He was eating a hot dog on the sideline.
43:48He made a huge hit on special teams.
43:50And Mike Shanahan got on the headset and said to Bobby Turner, did you see that?
43:54And Bobby said, yeah, I saw it.
43:56And he put Terrell Davis in the game.
43:58And the rest is history off to Canton.
44:01He went off to the Hall of Fame.
44:02A lot of great back.
44:03So Landis Gary offense five yard penalty second down the Marine Mike Anderson.
44:10It doesn't matter.
44:11Bobby T gets him.
44:12He's going to coach him up to to have some success.
44:14Well, I was talking to him about it this week.
44:16He said, you know, part of it was I Terrell wasn't going to play.
44:19So I was explaining to him what he should do on every play.
44:22I wanted to set him up for success.
44:24And obviously it's a great story, but it's also a great example of how you your special teams
44:30might be your way through the front door and you never know what can happen after you make the roster.
44:36After the delay, Bradley steps up, cuts it loose, and it is picked off.
44:43Yeah, this one's coming back.
44:44Hands to the face by the pass rusher on Isaiah Prince.
44:47He never let go.
44:48Was he in bounds?
44:49They can rule the end of this play first.
44:51You're right, though, Tim.
44:52Illegal use of hands.
44:53Number 96.
44:54Defense.
44:55Five yard penalty.
44:56Automatic.
44:57First down.
44:58So then I'm going to.
44:59They're still talking about whether the ball was caught in bounds, but it doesn't matter.
45:12Never let go.
45:14One.
45:15No, I wouldn't have been put in.
45:16It wouldn't have been an interception.
45:17He's trying to get it to Tariq Owens.
45:20The 49ers wide receiver, son, of course, of the Hall of Famer, T.O.
45:25And not a good decision to throw into that loaded coverage.
45:31Tariq's made some plays.
45:32I give him some credit.
45:33He had some good plays the other day in the scrimmage against Denver and was here last year on practice squad.
45:38He's made some nice plays in training camp.
