The 49ers should run the ball 40 times and live in big personnel to beat the Chiefs

Rematch... the 49ers handling business for three and a half quarters [last time]... dude, if I, I'm telling you, if I'm San Francisco, I'm in big personnel two, two backs. So use Juszczyk, McCaffrey... just go three tight ends, big personnel. Get in a phone booth and duke it out. Run it right at 'em... try and rush it 40 times.

The 49ers did not rush 40 times (they had 31 carries) and eventually lost in OT. Many analysts agreed they went away from the run too early.

The Washington Commanders head coaching job is actually a very good job

The mess is gone. We don't have the mess... You've got Josh Harris, good owner, he'll spend money, we're gonna get a new stadium... You have the most salary cap room in the NFL, and you have the number two overall pick. It's pretty good. In terms of the long-term aspect for the job.

The job was eventually filled by Dan Quinn. While the assets were good, the fact that the top candidate (Johnson) and others (Macdonald) went elsewhere suggests the league viewed it as less than elite.

I was wrong: Brock Purdy is much better than Jimmy Garoppolo

I would like to correct myself at the end of the show. We, we were talking about Jimmy G and Brock Purdy. I did. I was like, oh, was Jimmy G's be, you know, is he that much worse than Brock Purdy? That was wrong. Brock Purdy's much better than Jimmy G... Brock Purdy is better both with his legs with taking shots.

Purdy led the 49ers to the Super Bowl and has superior stats and mobility.

The Ravens' AFC Championship loss is much worse than the Lions' NFC Championship loss

I think that Ravens loss is so much worse than the Lions... I think it's so much worse because the Lions, and it sounds cliche, they, they died on their sword. They did what they do and it didn't work... The Ravens squandered a incredible opportunity as a favorite at home to beat Patrick Mahomes that they may never get again... Your game plan stunk.

This is a subjective comparison of fan/organizational misery.

Brock Purdy is a top five quarterback in the NFL

[Option for spicy take: top five or worst?] I'm going top five. 'cause I mean, I saw something the other day that said, you know, he was leading the league in yards per attempt, passing efficiency... Patrick Mahomes, right? So don't forget about what Brock Purdy did all year... those three scrambles he made in the second half... that turned the tide of the game.

Subjective ranking. While Purdy had elite stats, consensus top 5 usually includes Mahomes, Allen, Jackson, Burrow, etc.

I can't bet against Patrick Mahomes ever again

I can't bet against Mahomes anymore, man. Yep, yep. And I thought, I thought Baltimore would handle 'em. Yeah. I thought the bills, the bills had 'em... and this dude just finds a way to win. So if I bet against the guy, I'm like, that's crazy. I'm, I'm doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result.

Mahomes won the Super Bowl, proving Sanchez's 'can't bet against him' rule correct.
