I guess you can point to the way that the 49ers handled this and the way that the Rams handled this that led to the outcome last night. I don't know if that was the only reason why if I were 49ers player, I'd be annoyed to think that it was only the jet lag that led to the Rams looking like that because the 49ers beat the brakes off them. They were just the better team throughout the entire football game. I was thinking about that 49ers roster, though. If they could stay healthy, they've got a lot of experience there, but they got a lot of old guys on that offense from Christian McAfry to Mike Evans, the Debo Samuel, the Marcus Robinson in his 30s Trent Williams on the offensive line. The top offensive lineman in the league. Right. They got a lot of old guys there, but if they could keep it together, the experience is going to help them. But I mean, the party's pretty good. Yeah, he was great. He was great last night. He was better than Stafford by a mile and Sean McVey. I mean, he got he got humbled last night in a big way. All right. So it's week one. Remember everybody, remember last year of the Patriots lost to the Geno lead Oakland

Raiders, right? That's right. The Las Vegas Raiders in New England, a week one. They're going to be upsets. But I think the 49ers are a really good team. I think Kyle Shanahan is a tremendous football coach. I think John Lynch has done an unbelievable job. There's a GM and they still have like $50 million under the sour cap, by the way. But they figure it out. Guys got hurt again last night. You know, a bunch of guys got hurt last night. I'm not sure how significant these injuries are. We'll find out again in the next couple of days. But when I was thinking back to the New England Patriots, you know, the New England Patriots had three turnovers in the fourth quarter and are only lost by three points on the road to the defending Super Bowl champion. Well, the defending quarter. Yeah. Well, you think that's part of it. But yes. You know, and people are writing the Patriots, you know, off already. Come on, guys. Relax. I mean, they got a long way to go. And I really felt like if the Patriots were two and two after four because they have a very difficult first four game schedule, they would be just fine. And they're still going to be a good team. Their defense is really good. Their offense is good.

I mean, obviously, H.A. Brown is going to be out now 46 weeks with this high ankle sprain. But your drink may be a much better player. You know, the next time he steps on the field. Remember, these guys have not played, you know, both Seattle Seawawks and the New England Patriots. And yesterday's game, these guys haven't played since the playoffs last year. And the 49ers were not in the playoffs, but I'm that this is their first four A into games. They got to get into the flow of all this. Yeah, but there's also a winner in these circumstances as well. And, and you know, there were teams that looked really bad. The Patriots looked really bad. The Rams looked really bad, but there were also teams that look good. I mean, I thought that the Seattle Seawawks with Drew Locke did exactly what they needed to do in that game. And I think that the 49ers were great offensively. And great defensively yesterday too. So yeah, I mean, we could talk about the excuses with or the explanation as to why these teams didn't look great. That were on the losing end of things, but I also got to give credit to the teams that went out there in one under the same circumstances.

And that's an impressive victory for Kyle Shanahan, the 49ers, all the nonsense they got a long way to go. I understand we can always say that. But I mean, all the nonsense they went through in this, this off season from Shanahan's car accident and dealing with that to Jed York and having to go to a frickin' Australia. And then we went out there and kicked the crap out of a team that everybody had penciled into the Super Bowl. So good for them. You mean the Rams are not going to the Super Bowl? They may. They still may, but it could be the travel. It could be a million different things. I mean, it could take a while for Miles Garrett to get comfortable and be the player that we know that he can be. I mean, they're going to get Aaron Donald back most likely for the Giants game next week. So the Giants may be catching them at the right time or the wrong time. I don't know how you look at this. This could be the wrong time because of what happened yesterday. And it's going to be a long 10 days for the Rams. That's for sure. There's no question about that. Again, the first four games is like the glorified preseason.

This is where the guys actually get a chance to play and start to settle in. I will say this, the Patriots had a chance to win the game after throwing two interceptions prior to that last series. And they were down in there to tie the game. It was a bonehead throw by Drake May, who by the way, after the game said all the right things, exactly what you want your quarterback to say. And it's a growing process. I saw some, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't even know how to describe it. I did see some influencer that follows the NFL talking on Instagram yesterday about how Drake May has now out of the MVP equation. But why are you getting affected by that? I don't know, but I was like, what is that one? I'm like, I might fill. I sit here and I go, what? What? What are you talking about? I mean, it makes no sense. You get no, I mean, listen, man, I know you pretty well. What are you doing sitting around listening to influencers? I'm just going to work up about what I like to do is I like to go around and I like

to see everybody's take on different things. I like to hear from people that actually are in the know and maybe have played and, you know, I like a Dan or our Vlovsky. I know that, you know, he does things that sometimes, you know, are startling, but I kind of like that. I kind of like to listen to other guys that have played the game and see what their take is on things. I look at every game a little bit differently, but I just do what I feel does. You're looking for things to get annoyed. I don't want to be annoyed. That's a one thing I made. You're looking, you're seeking things out to be annoyed about. It's like everybody is killing Drake. Man, it's one game at a 17. Yes. He took total ownership of every aspect of the game where he made a mistake. Just what happens, man. It's the NFL. We haven't seen it for a while. Everybody loves it. And when somebody stinks, they hear about it. When somebody does great, they get glorified for it. He got glorified most of last year. He had a bad game. He's going to hear it now. I mean, it's just this is what we do. You know, I did an interview with a friend of mine. He works in Nashville yesterday and he said, he goes, you know, that boomer, he's getting

he listens all the time because he's a big fan of giants. Right. He goes, that boomer's getting crankier and crankier every day. Really? And I was like, wow. I don't know about that. And now I'm thinking he might have been right. Well, I was annoyed yesterday. I will say that. I was annoyed yesterday. And today is a different reason. If I am cranky, it's a little different reason. It's called no sleep. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I understand. For sure. I get it. And of course, we have prime time New York Giants on Sunday night as well. They will be locked into. I do like the fact that the jets are just not a part of prime time football this year. That's a good one. But the Giants, of course, have a couple of those games right out of the gate. Well, that's the John Harbour effect. And I think the Jackson Dard effect. Yeah. I think it's mostly, well, I would say mostly John Harbour because they think that the team's going to be a lot better just because he is there. And it's New York. You know, yeah, people wanted people want to hear about and talk about New York, which we will do today with both the football teams on this first football Friday.

Also, Jerry Reckos update coming up. You're going to hear about the Yankees and Anthony Volpi and another big win over a terrible baseball team, but they're doing exactly what they needed to do. And now they got the subway series this weekend against the match.
