00:00The superstar in this game for the San Francisco 49ers was their running back, Jordan Mason.
00:13Christian McCaffrey with a pretty surprising absence in this football game.
00:19We knew he was injured, figured, okay, could be limited, right?
00:25But a full inactive for CMC was surprising.
00:30Jordan Mason maybe told a little too much truth at the end of the game, maybe?
00:35Knew he was going to be the starter on Friday.
00:37Not a great look for the Niners, it feels like.
00:42Fines should probably come down.
00:45It's not going to save fantasy players, right?
00:49How many fantasy players out there had CMC, final leg, needed to get 20 points, win a
00:56league?
00:58You find out he's inactive, you have no options.
01:01You have no options.
01:02There's no one you can drop.
01:04You're not dropping McCaffrey, even if Jordan Mason was available in your league, nothing
01:07you could do, right?
01:08You know, there are people who probably have Jordan Mason sitting on that bench.
01:12All right, but that's fantasy football.
01:15Bets wise, all the CMC stuff comes back.
01:18If you bet the Niners because of McCaffrey, you still ended up getting the job done.
01:24If you're like me and who bet under, saw the CMC news, saw the number drop, I said, yep,
01:29that's not going to help me any.
01:30I don't know.
01:31We're just, sometimes that's how it goes.
01:34I wasn't surprised at that total drop.
01:37Then again, I still didn't get where I needed to go on under 43 and a half.
01:41But some other numbers that moved with the Jordan Mason's hard-studded performance were
01:46in the futures market around some awards.
01:50Jordan Mason goes 28 carries for 147 yards and a touchdown 5.3 yards per carry.
01:59He was one of the best running backs in week number one.
02:05And I think many people would probably sit there and give a lot of credit to Kyle Shanahan,
02:11the offensive system, and maybe take your shots at the Jets and all of those are valid.
02:20But this is a very, very important performance to remember.
02:28When if the Niners end up this season being as good as they've been the past few seasons,
02:35I'm lower on San Francisco.
02:37I know they got the job done here.
02:40I don't know if it'll sustain.
02:42CMC already injured.
02:43Trent Williams banged up at the end of the game.
02:45Brandon Aiyu could not crisp with the holdout.
02:48New defensive coordinator.
02:50I don't know.
02:51I think it's relative.
02:54I think the Niners should still be in the playoffs.
02:58I'm higher on Seattle and for sure, and LA a little bit, maybe then the market.
03:05LA's dealing with some injuries, Evia the left guard now going to be out four to six
03:08weeks.
03:10Who's going to cool the injury?
03:11That's already bad.
03:13But maybe I'm wrong.
03:14Maybe the Niners are just going to once again, win 12, 13 games.
03:18And we know that if you are going to have one of the best records in football, you're
03:23going to have an MVP candidate.
03:27Please, please remember week one, Monday night football before you suggest that Christian
03:35McCaffrey is the league's MVP.
