00:00 So it's Thursday night game home opener kind of surprising early in the season. It's home Thursday night
00:05 Do you think this is beneficial to the Niners? Oh
00:07 yeah, yeah big-time beneficial not only because
00:11 Traditionally when you play on Thursday night
00:14 There's some good and there's some bad the the bad is that you've got to turn around very quickly after you just played a game
00:21 You really don't have time to rest game plan
00:23 What have you the good is you have this mini by week?
00:26 The way I see this game and if it plays out the way that I think it will
00:31 The 49ers should be able to rest quite a bit of their players
00:35 The second half of the fourth quarter, maybe even more potentially and if that's the case, it's an easy night for your big-time players
00:43 Really? You've got almost a full by week in front of you the way that this thing's gonna play out
00:49 You only get one by week throughout the season and that is coming a little bit later
00:55 But if the 49ers don't get that number one seed
00:57 I especially if they don't get that number one seed this week here can prove to be so beneficial throughout the whole season grant
01:04 I really think that this is an advantage and not only that it's the first of three straight home games for them after this stretch
01:12 They basically alternate home road home road. So this whole stretch right here. This three games is
01:19 very very
01:21 Important overall and this rest going into the final two I think is crucial
01:26 Yeah, I see that
01:28 If you got I mean you got to have it a Thursday night game
01:31 So good to have one early in the year what sucks about the Niner schedules. They have two of them this year
01:34 Oh, yeah, - they got one on third on Thanksgiving as well
01:38 So, I don't know. I mean you got to have them at some point at least it's the Giants at least they're at home and
01:44 At least they're - I know they should win this game
01:49 not only that though grant they really are kind of screwed by the schedule because if
01:53 You I think last year first of all, they didn't they didn't play on Thanksgiving
01:59 They had Thanksgiving off with their family that Christmas off their family this year
02:03 They have the Thanksgiving game and the Christmas game. That's I
02:07 Mean these players are our humans. They've got families. They've got little little kids
02:13 That is a time they want to spend with their family and they're gonna have to play on both those days
02:17 That's a major disadvantage major disadvantage
02:20 Major major major major
02:23 Sorry for the Giants. They stayed out in the West Coast. Did they not? Yeah. Oh, yeah. No, there's no point
02:28 If you could you imagine going from Arizona to New York and then back in the four-day time span?
02:33 They had to have stayed out here
02:35 It feels like the only chance they have to win is Daniel Jones running for a lot of yards
02:38 Maybe have been a couple big throws. Well, that's the other thing
02:43 Traditionally the 49ers don't do well with these mobile quarterbacks grant
02:46 But when there is nobody else that you've got to check how there's no way that he's in a run wild
02:52 I gotta imagine that they're ready to corral it and not only that my my opinion Drake Jackson
02:57 Already is kind of an advantage for the 49ers. I think that he can be key
03:02 Towards holding these mobile quarterbacks and check this season because he's so athletic
03:09 But when Daniel Jones doesn't have Saquon Barkley and he's without two of his offensive linemen
03:13 I just can't imagine that they let him do anything with his mobility
03:18 Yeah, but
03:22 You don't believe it though. You think they're gonna get torched on the ground it seems
03:26 Well, I mean like here's the way here's the problem with the Niners
03:29 It's been their problem since they drafted Nick Bosa, honestly, and they've gone to the wide nine. These guys are not playing
03:36 The run they're not they're playing all gas no brakes. So the edge rushes in particular are
03:40 Screaming upfield and they often rush past the quarterback get pushed past the quarterback
03:46 Once you run past the quarterback if he wants to scramble, it's a green light
03:51 It's a freaking super highway a lot of quarterbacks don't
03:54 Daniel Jones does
03:56 So if they I mean Jared Stidham took that against the Niners and helped the Raiders put up 30-plus
04:03 So they can't do that. You got to be more disciplined. They talk about being disciplined in their rush lanes
04:08 Yeah, but the wide nine isn't really coached that way. So it's kind of why the Niners
04:12 Frequently have had this issue. We'll see
04:15 Do you think it would be disappointing if this game was close?
04:19 Because the way that I see it is last week the game was a lot closer than we expected
04:23 But there was a lot of reasons you can point to one being it's a division game
04:28 Two being week one you had to travel all the way across the country and come back your second road game to start the season
04:34 It made a lot of sense why that game was close and you're playing against when healthy a very very good quarterback a good coach
04:42 And Aaron Donald still on that team
04:45 With all the injuries that the Giants have be in the home opener. I
04:49 Would be a little disappointed if they don't win this game going away
04:54 True true, I would as well. I just want to point out that the
04:58 Giants scored what 31 points in the second half last week. Is that correct?
05:03 Was it 30? Sure second half. Let me make sure Giants. Where are you?
05:09 Giants Giants Giants, I know they were down big against Arizona. I didn't realize it. I scored 31 in the second half
05:16 So I don't know what's going on with them
05:18 But maybe they figured something out and if Steve Wilkes plays that super soft passive
05:24 Zone coverage against him. I
05:27 Don't know man. This team has more firepower than the Rams which had you know, not that much
05:32 Do they though without Saquon? I don't know that they do. They've got Waller got Slayton. I
05:39 Like Jalen. Hi, he's dangerous, but he's a rookie. Yeah, I don't know that they do
05:49 Chris they do have a margarita though. They have Brita. So let's watch out for Matt Brita
05:52 Chris Salergo says don't tell Kyle to sit BA now. He's gonna run him up the middle by up by 30
05:57 So truly so true
06:00 Plumbing out 42 says been thinking about this the past few days
06:02 Hypothetically if Wilkes struggles and solid gets fired from New York Jets with the Niners bring back Salah
06:07 Maybe interesting, although he might not want to like come back. He might want to go do his own thing
06:14 Don't know basic hot dog. No point says trap game possible. Keep up the QC grant
06:19 always possible
06:21 Always possible West Coast Jays is the same man that never takes his players out late in a blowout game is the same man
06:26 We're asking to risk. I you true. It's not gonna happen. Never going to happen. What are we talking about?
06:31 Kyle don't rest for tonight. I wouldn't rest for tonight. You could all I think I would really stupid every snap
06:38 The smartest guy in the room would play him on every snap
06:41 Ryan Berkowitz says Brita will be the starter houses health
06:44 Good question
06:47 Yeah
06:48 That's true. I never quite know
