Considering the wide receiver injuries and the Falcons secondary, do you see this maybe being more of a McCaffrey and Kittle type of game?

Tim RyanGUEST
Well, Mike Evans, obviously that injury and him going down, and they started dialing up a little bit more blitz.

Tim RyanGUEST
They kind of called off the dogs and sat in a lot of their four-man fronts and got picked apart.

Tim RyanGUEST
But it was a couple of sacks in the second half, a couple of three and outs, I think two or three of those in a row.

John LundHOST
I mean, obviously they're working on that this week, but does that make you a little bit nervous that Atlanta might give them a little more blitz rate because they saw what it looked like against Washington in that second half?

cumulus media station you mentioned the gold jacket dude mike evans and fingers crossed like as of now uh tim he's questionable and he didn't practice all week according to the media reports so just kind of wondering your gut instinct on that and then if he doesn't but i mean he's so tough but you shined a light a little bit on that receiver situation how would it look going into tonight

Tim RyanGUEST
well there's there's four healthy bodies or three healthy and then mike and and again it's Hopefully he can go.

So now you've got Brandon Cooks, Jordan Watkins,

Tim RyanGUEST
So to me, and then you look at the way these guys play, and it's in your face, it's 45% pressure.

Tim RyanGUEST
Probably going to be a lot of fast pass where Brock's getting it out of his hands.

Tim RyanGUEST
There's going to be five to seven times in this game where they're going to send more than the 49ers can block.

Tim RyanGUEST
There will be six to eight zero blitzes in this game where they're just trying to get the ball, trying to take the ball away.
Brian MurphyHOST

John LundHOST
Do you think this was just a Seattle thing, or can they do this consistently, these young guys?

Tim RyanGUEST
No, I think they can do it consistently, and a lot of it'll depend on who you're playing and whether the quarterbacks wanna stay in the pocket or not and let you rush them and be quarterbacks.

Tim RyanGUEST
And look, remember when a week, three or four days before the team left for Australia, lost Sam Okawann, then lost Alfred Kondae, and then in the game against Miami, lost four defensive linemen.

Tim RyanGUEST
And they've been able to obvi- you know, with the exception of, of C.J. West, who's still getting better with, with his knee surgery.

Did you ever dream that one day you would take on the big, bad loudmouth host and, and crush him in fantasy football in such heartbreaking fashion?

Tim RyanGUEST
It, it, something is right about the idea about Murph and Kruger being a combined 1 and 9.

They did, and you were following it, and were you whooping and hollering? And, and then James Cook fumbled, and I retook the lead.

yeah it's a damn good morning top of the morning to you guys well i i heard you talking about yeah it's only week five and number one seed and all that stuff there's so much football to go but i'll say this playoff football in week five are you freaking kidding me because that's what that was The atmosphere, the mindset, the level of play, the physicality of that game, it was a 60-minute bar-room brawl.

Tim RyanGUEST
Like, you knew as soon as you stepped on that field, you were going to be thrown, and it was going to be going down for 60 minutes, and it absolutely was.

Tim RyanGUEST
To go in there and to have the euphoria to walk off that field after a battle like that and the way that thing went back and forth and the high drama, the intensity of that game from start to finish, the whole mindset of do right longer with the 49ers and that saying that is always going around the building.
