lot of things about new and improved, New and improved.
This really is because they have new features, a live
radio dial, presets scan, even lyrics. That new live radio
dial lets you explore the best live radio stations around
the country by city or by genre like you know,

lyrics experience where you can see the lyrics on the
iHeart Radio app for songs on artists, radio playlist, and

it rankers section where you can find what everybody's listening to.

why not take advantage of that very very easy to
do to download the iHeart Radio app. We continue here

(01:05):
on this Friday afternoon. National Football League as Okay, yeah,
It was kind of a nah kind of football game
last night. I suppose that if I was watching the
game at home as a Rams fan. If I was
sitting at home watching I probably would have been a
lot more bunged up about it. Then it turned out

(01:27):
to be because you know, there wasn't they weren't capitalizing
Stafford Gets stopped on that run toward the goal line
and got flattened on that. Williams would have taken it in,
but he did hit Pooka the coop with a fifty
one yard pass that set up the field goal to

(01:50):
go up nine to six. H Nikua had a good game.
Cooper Cup didn't catch pass in the game, and then
the forty nine ers were just awful on offense. Brock
Perty made some terrible decisions the one that was picked
off in the end zone. He made some poor decisions
even in the last play of the game. The one
thing you cannot do when you need a hell maryage

(02:11):
to take a sack and didn't get it off in time,
and the Rams were able to sack them and that
did it. So it was it was a huge win
for the Rams. I mentioned this yesterday. If LA had
won the game, I said, if they win the game,
they're going to be in the thick of the fight
for the NFC West. They're not leading. Seattle was eight

(02:33):
and five, the Rams are six and eight and six.
The Seahawks host the Packers on Sunday. That's one of
the big games in the NFL. If the Seahawks win
that game, they maintained a one game lead on Los Angeles,
But of course they still have games left to be completed,
and they conclude the regular season at Sofi Stadium in La.

(02:53):
Seattle plays at LA and the Rams already had beaten
the Seahawks once, so they're they're they're still in control
their own destiny. Both of those teams are even the
Cardinals that think are all butt in control of their
own destiny because they got swept by the Seahawks. They're
still in the think of the fight. But they're six
and seven. One would imagine to beat the Patriots this Sunday,

(03:14):
that puts them still within hopefully for them striking distance.
I think the forty nine Ers are dead and gone.
I mentioned this yesterday if they lost, because their division
record is taking the beating now and they got swept
by the Rams and they're six and eight, and at
the very least they'll still be two games back with
three to go. So I think they're done. I think,

(03:34):
what was it a zero point two percent chance to
get kind of like the Cowboys, that's zero point two
percent chance to get in into the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
I ran through the playoffs machine earlier the day and
did what it would take for the forty nine ers
to get there, and it's just impossible. I mean, basically,
you need Washington to lose out, you need Tampa Bay
to lose out. You need who's the other team you need?
You need the Seahawks to lose some games.

Speaker 3 (03:58):
You need the Rams. Basically the into the division. It's done.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
I mean, you got players quitting on your on the
team halfway through a game. It's over. With McCaffrey. Just
let him take a year off from football, you know,
don't bring him back for this. Deebo Samuel, he looked anful.
He's injured, of course, you know.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
He said there winding and complaining about not being targeted enough.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
So what happens last night?

Speaker 1 (04:22):
They targeted me drops the ball twice, including one where
he was running the slant over the middle. The Rams
wouldn't have called it even it would have been a
touchdown touchdown for sure, and he dropped that. He also
ran into Grindo and knocked him down his own teammate once.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Yeah, it's the year from Hell for San Francisco. You know,
there's always that one year from Hell team. And when
we went over the playoff predictions beginning to season, and
I gave you my seven teams, you know, I went
through the NFC AFC and it's like, okay, usually at
least three teams from last year's playoffs do not make
it this year. And I couldn't really figured it out

(04:58):
in the NFC, but there's always that one team that
has that that year from Hell aspect and we'll miss
the playoffs. Who you didn't think would happen before the season,
It was San Francisco. I think if you asked, if
you survey ten people NFL fans, a nogele NFL fans, Hey,
who wins the NFC Probably half for seeing San Francisco,
maybe more maybe more in the other half, probably Detroit.

(05:20):
No one had, you know, Philadelphia or even Minnesota. But
it's caught up to him. And you know, with San Francisco, crack.
I'm curious because you know, remember when Harball made the
Super Bowl and then a few years later things didn't
work out and they let him go. I wonder what
they're gonna do with Shanahan, if that will get stealed
because I think he's a fantastic play caller and a
good head coach. But you know, well, will the ownership

(05:42):
group in San Francisco maybe get a little impatient.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
Wow, he's gotten to the super Bowl twice, he's got
they haven't been able to get over the hump.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
And they have some very big contract decisions of him coming. Yeah,
especially with Brock Brady.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
So you're saying the Season from Hell belongs to the
forty nine ers and not the Cowboys.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Yeah, yeah, because don't think the Cowbys are a good team.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
Like, but people thought they were going to be a
good team. They won what twelve ball games last year
and they lost in the first round.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
Okay, but they won't now, but they were still expected
to be a playoff team by most and maybe you
didn't pick them. I did not pick them, and I
picked them to be a playoff team.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
If you want to say this year from Hell, sure,
but I think in the offseason. There was things that
were leading up to the season that made you think, yeah,
it's probably not gonna work out for them, and it
turned out that way. I mean, even without Dak Prescott's injury,
Cowboys are probably in the same spot. Maybe they have
one or two more wins, but at the same time,

(06:42):
they're still trilling Washington in the NFC East for that
final playoff spot. I don't think they would have gotten
there with or without Dakh. With San Francisco, every week
someone else is getting injured. For me, that streams streams
year from health, especially because they were you know, they're
one defensive stop last year from winning a six Super

(07:02):
Bowl championship.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
Yeah, but they all they do have enough.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
Cowboys gave up eighty points in the first half againt
screen Bay in the first round.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
So yeah, the the forty nine ers do have enough
weapons on offense to be better than one hundred and
ninety one yards of total offense last night.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
True, it's true.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
I mean, brock Perdy was hailed as a second coming
after getting to the Super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (07:22):
How does that work. He's having an awful season, up.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
And down, up and down. You know, people you know
giving him praise and then tear him down.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
It's you know, it's and I know I know that.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
Uh, the wide receivers have sustained some injuries, but Juwan
Jennings had done well when Deebo was out, you know,
when they when they had other injuries as.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
Well, and in the first round.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
Yeah, the loss of McCaffrey is huge because it just
the key to.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
The whole offense.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
Even though Jordan Mason before he got injured and as
a Grendo have had moments for them.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
But anyway, Yeah, your unry has been huge as well. Yeah,
because the key for Shnahan's offense is you need those
multiple playmakers for the defense. Isn't honing in on just
one guy, because when you when you take away a
UK and McCaffrey and you're just left with, you know,
a fifty healthy Deebo Samuel, it's easier for defenses to
stop you. And it's why San Francisco has a negative

(08:20):
point differential this season.

Speaker 3 (08:22):
Yeah. Yeah, absolutely, losers are for their last five. You know.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
By the way, Kenneth Walker, the third who's been binged
up running the ball well for Seattle, is doubtful with
that calf injury to play against the Packers. So the
Seahawks are won four in a row, but they may
well have to do without Kenneth Walker. The third listed
is doubtful for the Sunday night game there in Seattle
possibility could miss a second straight game.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
Mike McDonald said.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
The injury is not a long term concern, but that's
you know, as it said. But Zach Charbonay has played well,
ran for one hundred and thirty four yards two touchdowns
when they beat the Cardinals last week.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
So when getting McIntosh has added some things as well.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
So four straight wins, you know, the defense is getting healthy,
physical football team. You know, Mike Donald's a good football coach.
You know, he's they got that that tough nosed defensive
mentality that you need to have in in January to
make a deep run the playoffs. So I think, you know,
there's always you know, label teams who aren't favorites, teams

(09:24):
that oh you just don't want to face him, you
know in January. You know, I think San Francisco, I'm sorry,
Seattle is one of those teams. They're frisky, they play
good defense. And now you know, I'm not the like
you know Smith, I'm not really concerned with him. But
on the right day, right day, you know, can you
know he'll throw that one stupid interception, But he also
can throw four touchdowns.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
Yeah, he does throw those funny ones, those inexplicable like
the one hundred and three yard return one that the
Rams had.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
He's like Jameis wins He's like the Kirkland version of
Jamis Winston Kirkland, because Jamis is going to throw these
three game He's also going to make that You're like, Holy.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
Look who's back from injury? Hollywood Brown? There you go.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
Hollywood Brown practiced today for the first time with the
Chiefs since that injury in August knocked him out of
the lineup. That was the first play of the preseason
against Jacksonville. Remember that it was a stern oclavicular injury.
He had surgery placed on IR so they have a

(10:28):
three week window in which he can be activated from
injured reserve. He's not going to play this Sunday against Cleveland,
but he has back on the practice so that he
could return as soon as the following week. Next weekend
against the Texans, they play him at Arrowhead, So he's
not going to play this weekend, but he might be
going forward, so's it really has been a star crossed

(10:49):
existence for those two former Oklahoma receivers, you know, Hollywood
Brown and Cede Lamb.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
The CD's had some marvelous moments and then he said
some moments this.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Year when like Trey Aiightman was viscerating him in this
commentary about him saying he's dropping balls he shouldn't be
dropping and you know, effort being questioned and things like that.
Speaking of receivers, I guess you saw the Dolphins release
Odell Beckham Junior.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
It was a mutual decision.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
He had a one year, three million dollar deal that
he signed back and made with the Dolphins worth up
to eight million, two hundred and fifty thousand with incentives.
But he had knee surgery earlier in the offseason, started
on the pup list, made his practice debut in October.
In nine games, he has nine catches for fifty five yards.

(11:41):
So he's the third receiving option behind Tyreek Hill and
Jaln Waddle. So that's that's where he is, and he's
out razer hand. If you knew Opj's and the Dolphins,
anybody he did sign with him in the offseason, Okay,
all right, we've got some more college football notes to
get to next when we continue on Sports Radio AM
thirteen under the Zone.
