00:00And together, they are Stiney and Guru on 95-7 the game.
00:07Third and six and Kirti throwing to Debo.
00:10Brings it in across midfield.
00:12Stays on his feet.
00:14Samuel to the 37-yard line.
00:17Man coverage.
00:18Debo got the better of it.
00:20All right, Mike Tirico.
00:23Debo Samuel.
00:2549ers are back.
00:284-4.
00:29Yeah, 500.
00:31Yeah.
00:32You were there.
00:33Yeah, I was there.
00:34Had a good time.
00:35Nothing like watching pro sports up close.
00:37Got to get on the field.
00:39What do you mean?
00:40It's nothing like watching pro sports.
00:42I wasn't finished.
00:44No, you said up close.
00:46Oh.
00:48Anyway, I owe you something.
00:50Friday, I'll take care of you.
00:51Yes, you do.
00:52Yeah.
00:53Yes, you do.
00:54But I'll tell you what, man.
00:55There's so many thoughts going through my mind.
00:57I didn't think that game should have come down to the Cowboys' last possession down six.
01:01It kind of felt like the Seattle game where the Niners were up 20.
01:06And there was a juncture late in that fourth quarter where Seattle and Geno Smith had the ball.
01:11And we saw the interception.
01:12And that kind of mirrored itself yesterday.
01:16I'm telling you, Brock Purdy in his leg game, Stiney, is saving this team in offense right now.
01:24And another big takeaway before I throw it back to you is I like what I saw from the connection of Brock Purdy and Ricky Pearsall.
01:32Now, I know it's early, but I'm going R&B.
01:38They have rhythm.
01:40And I like what I saw.
01:42Four and four.
01:43Now, all of a sudden, the streets are saying who may come back after the bye.
01:46Stiney, I'll take it.
01:48And I'm sure Niner fans will take it.
01:50Yeah, I thought Brock Purdy was terrific last night.
01:52Really, really good.
01:54One or two plays that could have gone sideways.
01:56But other than that, I thought that there was no pressure on him.
02:01And at any time there was, he just ran for 11 yards.
02:04And then when he got decked, from his blind side, he could have lost the ball.
02:08He held on to it.
02:10Yeah.
02:1130-24.
02:12Niners beat the Cowboys.
02:14They're now four and four.
02:15They have a bye.
02:16Two weeks off.
02:17I should say a week off.
02:19And they play in two weeks.
02:21And, you know, to me, their second must win of the year.
02:26Yeah.
02:27First one was Seattle.
02:28And then there was that one last night.
02:30And they got it.
02:31And now they wait and see if McCaffrey's going to join them for the ninth game of the year.
02:36Wow.
02:37See if they can get Greenlaw back and get Mason back to 100%.
02:41Gross mottos, too.
02:43Try to make a run at this thing.
02:45The division's still firmly right there for them.
02:49And I thought they played great against the Cowboys up until the end.
02:54And they let it get closer than they should have.
02:56And ordinarily, that wouldn't be a red flag.
02:59But this year, they've dropped two games like that.
03:02And, you know, the Cowboys, they somehow pull out something crazy late.
03:07Maybe you lose that game 31-30.
03:10But the 49ers built themselves up enough cushion.
03:13They win 30-24 and take care of the Dallas Cowboys.
03:19In solid fashion.
03:22With a little too much concern at the end.
03:26But you still got the win.
03:28And right now, if this team were 6-1 going into the ballgame,
03:32I think we'd view them a little bit differently.
03:34But they're 3-4 with a bunch of guys hurt.
03:36And so you just had to get the win.
03:38And now we see what happens over the bye week.
03:42Who's coming back?
03:43Who's getting closer?
03:44That's all good stuff.
03:46And maybe they can do what they've done in the past.
03:49And that is get warm in the second half of the season.
03:52And go on a run.
03:54That's really what it's all about this year.
03:56And I'll tell you what, Stonnie.
03:57This has been the one constant for the Niners.
04:01And I don't know moving forward.
04:03The bye week obviously coming at a good time.
04:05But we saw Debo exit with a rib injury.
04:07We saw Jordan Mason playing on that separated shoulder.
04:11He was down.
04:12Went out, came back, went out.
04:14And Isaac Garindo handled his business.
04:1714 totes for 85 yards, Stonnie.
04:20Could have had two touchdowns and went down again.
04:22But I'll say this.
04:24They were, what, 70, 65 yards away from being 3-5 maybe.
04:30So that's how bad and critical that last possession was by the Niner defense.
04:36And they didn't allow a yard to Dak Prescott.
04:39And the reason I bring that back up is Dallas House scored the Niners
04:43shockingly 14-3 in the fourth.
04:45And CD got kind of loose.
04:47Stonnie, do you look at that as, you know what,
04:49they just went to prevent defense.
04:52Because I was shocked.
04:53I was like, I didn't even expect Dallas to sniff the end zone in the second half.
04:57But they got two fourth-quarter scores.
04:59And, again, I don't know how you felt when they got the ball back.
05:02Like, you got to think they're feeling like we can do this.
05:05And they doubled and triple-teamed CD Lamb.
05:08And the front line for the Niners were active all night.
05:12Dak had no time.
05:13Yeah, I thought when the Cowboys got that ball.
05:16Oh, Stonnie, I'll text you.
05:17With three-plus minutes to go,
05:19I don't know why they were treating it like they had 50 seconds to go.
05:22Dude.
05:23They basically threw four straight times and didn't get anything.
05:27That last one, was it interference?
05:31Was it not interference?
05:32Looking at it again.
05:33Could have gone either way.
05:34But now we're in an era, Stonnie, where the refs are throwing –
05:37where's Dibs at?
05:38The refs are throwing the flags and picking them up.
05:41We saw last night at pick play.
05:43Conley was involved on the Kittle touchdown.
05:45Two refs threw the flag.
05:47And you pick them up and say, I shouldn't have threw it.
05:51I just don't – forget the two teams.
05:53I told you, the Viking Ram game, Stonnie, I don't like that.
05:56Why did you throw it?
05:58Because they thought it was offensive pass interference, I think, on who?
06:01Conley on that play?
06:02So does Evan come talk to you and change your mind?
06:05Yeah.
06:06Does Goo come talk to you and change your mind?
06:08Essentially.
06:09Or you threw the flag.
06:10A licensed official is just stand.
06:13It's not up for debate.
06:15Well, I mean, if –
06:16It's not first take.
06:17I mean, you'd rather see them pick up the flag if they made a mistake
06:19than not pick up the flag if they made a mistake.
06:22I can just tell you what they were saying on television was the –
06:26I forget who the ref is, the ref analyst on that broadcast.
06:29But he thought it was a fair call.
06:32Fair non-call.
06:34And the one thing Chris Collinsworth said was, well, you know, he said,
06:39I believe you.
06:41You know, I believe you that that's what they think they saw.
06:45But if that's legal, Collinsworth was saying, we're going to see a lot of that.
06:51A lot more of that.
06:52Because it did look like Conley just blocked the guy.
06:55But I guess the refs determined that he was pushed into him.
06:57And the play stood.
07:01And Kittle got a touchdown.
07:03And the 49ers ended up going up to win that game 30-24.
07:078-8-8, 9-5-7, 9-5-7-0.
07:11How are we feeling today, Niner fans?
07:13It was a must-win, essentially, and they got it.
07:17It looked great for three quarters, especially in the third quarter itself.
07:22They were dominant, outscored the Cowboys 21-0.
07:26And then they gave up a couple touchdowns.
07:28And the next thing you know, maybe that game could have slipped away.
07:31But they did what they had to do, and they won.
07:34Is that good enough for you, 49er fans?
07:36Especially knowing that the bye week's coming,
07:39and you've got a shot to get some players back.
07:42And some players who are banged up can be healthy.
07:448-8-8, 9-5-7, 9-5-7-0 is the number.
07:50And we'll be talking about the Niners today.
07:52Of course, the Warriors played last night.
07:55Steph Curry sprained an ankle.
07:58We'll find out how the MRI went last night.
08:01But the Warriors are 2-1.
08:02But they lose yesterday to the Clippers.
08:04At home!
08:05Curry gets hurt, and we'll see how long he's out.
08:09And, you know, this is kind of what we all know
08:13is part of the equation with the Warriors.
08:15Is Steph going to miss two games?
08:17Is he going to miss five games?
08:19Is he going to miss ten games?
08:20Those are big, big disparities there.
08:23And we'll have to wait and hear some news on Steph Curry.
08:26Hopefully he'll be back sooner rather than later.
08:29But the Warriors got beat last night in their home opener
08:32to the L.A. Clippers, 1-12-1-0-4.
08:36And we'll probably push the Warriors to tomorrow.
08:39But if we do talk about him, obviously we'll have to talk about
08:43what happened with Steph Curry.
08:44I know we're up against his time.
08:45What about Kittle?
08:46He came up big, man.
08:47Yeah, he was great.
08:486-4-1-28, man.
08:50Long one for 43 yards.
08:52The other guy I'm wondering about is Garendo.
08:55I'm wondering about Garendo because
08:57he seems to give them some life out of the backfield.
09:00And as good as Jordan Mason's been this year,
09:03you can just tell by watching those two guys how different they are.
09:08Wow.
09:09It seems like Garendo's much quicker at hitting the hole,
09:13which it feels like isn't always the best way to do it
09:17when the 49ers run their offense.
09:19But once he gets ahead of steam, I mean, he can move, Garendo.
09:23The only thing I worry about with him is fumbling for a rookie.
09:26But he held onto the ball last night.
09:28No doubt.
09:29And I'll tell you what.
09:31You look at Ricky Pierce on that end around, Stiney.
09:35I mean, he looked smooth, 39 yards.
09:39And the Niners just had their way with Dallas into the fourth quarter,
09:43and you talked about it, that third quarter was it,
09:45especially when they were the beneficiaries of getting a ball at the 40-yard line.
09:49Dibbs had told us about that rule, Stiney, of the kickoff,
09:52which Dallas started the second half to the Niners,
09:54doesn't get to the 20-yard line in the air.
09:57You automatically get it at the 40-yard line,
09:59and the Niners took advantage of it, and that was the game.
10:03That was the game.
10:04But, I mean, if you're a San Francisco 49er fan,
10:06you've been on this roller coaster, Stiney, it's about 4-4.
10:09That's got to feel sweet.
10:118-8-8, 9-5-7, 9-5-7-0 is the number.
10:1549er fans, how are you feeling after that one?
10:18Was it good enough?
10:20I feel like we've got two weeks to get something going here.
10:24Where are you at with the San Francisco 49ers,
10:26essentially halfway through the season, and they're 4-4.
