Speaker 1 (00:00):
On buyer cell tonight, guys, is simple, guys, buy or sell.
Are the semisiusco forey nine ers now the favorites in
the NFC West? Guys the semisucreey Ninder sitting at four
and one, three and zero in the division. After watching
them grind out an overtime win versus the La Rams
with half of their offense washing from the sideline and
street clothes, it's hard not to give them a credit

(00:22):
is credit is credit is due. But let's just be honest.
This is not the same juggernaut we saw a year ago.
This is this is a banged up team, badly banged
up team. George Kittle has been bottling through lower body soreness.
Brock Purty is playing through lingering shorter issues and turf
toe and this and this and this one. Jennings and
Ricky Piersoll have been out of the lineup as well.

(00:45):
And oh guess what, Brandon Ayuk is now with Washington
So he's long gone. Yes, somehow, kash Aahan and Robert
Sala had these guys right in the thick of it.
Thursday night win over the La Rams said a lot
about this team. It wasn't pretty it was dominant, but
it was gritty guys. The four nine Ers trailed most
of the game. They were outgained. Their office looks sluggish,

(01:06):
but when it mattered, they executed. They thought they played
with heart. They never gave up linebrecker. Fred Warner said
it best after the game. A game like Thursday speaks
to the coaching staff completely. You are wounded, you are
down to you are down a bunch of guys, and
you get players prepared enough out there to compete at
that level. That's special and guys, Fred Warner is absolutely right. Well,

(01:30):
what Kyle Shanahan and Robert Shalosla are doing right now
is nothing short of a macroclass coaching. They're getting production
from guys most teams wouldn't even be active on game day.
Case in point, Kendrick Warren, this dude is cut by
the Patriots back in August. He shows up in San
Francisco and suddenly he's Mac Jones' top target for the night.
Ten catches forty two yards, a career high. That's what

(01:54):
separates good teams from great ones. Depth and development. When
your stats are out or when you're stars are out,
your system steps in. Now Here's the quik. Here's the
key question, guys, how good can these forty nine ers
actually be? The truth is this team might never fully
be healthy in twenty twenty five. This is the reality.
But even at eighty percent, they're still a dangerous team.

(02:17):
They're young. Defensive cors like Drake Johnson Brown j L.
Mccollin are starting to take h steps forward. This defense
front is creating pressure again, and the secondary looks looks
tighter every week. This isn't about flashy forty nine ers
forty nine ers team a couple years ago. It's grittier,
nastier version that can win ugly, and that might even

(02:37):
be scarier than come to December. Now, let's talk to
the NFC West, the Seahawks. To be honest, guys, they're
they are inconsistent, The Rams can't finish, and the Cardinals, well,
they're allergic to winning. The Niners they're the only team
in that division that knows how to win the hard, hard,
hard way. They're four to one overall, three to zero

(02:58):
in the division that marks a battle testa group. They're
not blowing teams out anymore, but they're surviving the injuries.
They're adjusting weekly and they're finding new heroes each and
every game. Because I am buying the San Francisco foro
Niners now. Is the NFC West favorites? Not because they're
the most talented team right now, because they're not. Because
they're the most resilient team. They've already beaten the Rams,

(03:22):
Carlins and Seahawks. They've done it while missing half their
half of their starters, and they're still fighting ways to
find find ways to win in the fourth quarter. That's
championship DNA. If they get just a little bit healthier,
if Kittle or Purdy stays up up right, and these
young defenders keep ascending, this team is going to go
right in the think of it come January. So yes,

(03:42):
I am buying the forty Niners as NFC West favorites.
But if they make but if they want to make
a real Super Bowl push, they need to get healthy
and they need to stay healthy and rediscover that offensive
of rhythms Shanahan's teams are known for. But what do
you guys think? Are the forty Niners still the team
to beat in the NFC West or do the Rams,
Seahawks or potentially the Cardos have something to say about It, subscribe,
