Richard Sherman
Welcome back to the Richard Sherman Podcast and what a game for The San Francisco 49ers niners in the Bears. For that matter. It was, it might have been game of the year. Obviously nobody's defense decided to show up this week. But Brock Purdy, I gotta see if him and Kyle Shanahan went to medical school because it should be Brock Purdy. Maryland Surgical throughout the entire game. Started off as rough as it could, a pick six, but it didn't affect him at all throughout the game. Ended up with five total touchdowns in the game, 24 of 33, 303 yards, three touchdowns, two Russian touchdowns and a partridge and a pear tree for those still enjoying the holiday season. But that's not all. It was Purol, it was Tunis. It was CMC and CMC and CMC some more. This was an incredible all around game for the 49ers offense and this was without George Kittle, without Trenton Williams. Trent Williams goes out after the first play of the game after the pick six with a hamstring injury and then Purcell was in and out of the lineup. But if you think about this 49ers offense and how prolific they've been over the last two weeks and who they have in there, they, they, they have Kendrick Bourne in and out of the lineup. They have Ricky Purcell in and out of the lineup. George Kittle was in, he was out. It's not a ton of of, of of high level all Pro bowl players but Brock Purdy. It's elevating this offense to a new level. Give the offensive line a lot of credit. We have been very tough on them this season. No question about it. They played fantastic football. They kept people off. Brock Purdy gave him time to operate even if the pockets were getting kind of tight. Brock was doing a great job navigating within the pocket and executing. I don't want to take anything away from the Chicago Bears because that's a well coached, incredible football team. Caleb Williams was 25, 42 for 330 and two touchdowns. They ran the Ball. Well, Luther Burden played the game of his life. Had eight catches for 138 yards and a touchdown. Loveland played really well. They were executing. And that goes to the defensive side. A lot of concerns on the defensive side continue. Who are you going to play at? Nickel? Upton Stout gets injured with, with a concussion, goes out. Lucas comes in, he struggles mightily. They were running the same play. Motion Luther Burton over option out. Motion Luther Burden over option out. I'm not gonna lie. If you do that to me multiple times, I'm booking that. You're gonna have to show me something different. But Robert Salah was switching it up and changing things up, bringing pressure, disguise pressure, showing pressure and then backing out. Nothing was seen, seeming to work. And again, this goes back to just a young defense not being as, as veteran. In the moment, a veteran defense takes a deep breath, sees what's going on, understands it's simple football. Understand. Understands the down and distance, the situational football. Have situational awareness. Hey, they're gonna, they're gonna. If we're bringing pressure, they're throwing hot. There's no reason to chase things deep. They're hot to this side, to the blitzer side. If I'm that corner, I'm keeping eyes open. I'm guarding my man, but I'm keeping eyes for zone eyes and, and letting him know, hey, soon as he breaks, I'm breaking. And that's the things, those are the things that I'm concerned about for this 49ers defense going down a stretch. Offense is playing outstanding football. They're 12, 4 with everything coming down to the wire, everything coming down to next week in Levi's Stadium in San Francisco. Well, Santa Clara, I'm sorry for everything. For the division, for the one seed. And who would have thunk it? Who would have thunk it? Not faithful. I know you guys are faithful. I know you guys are diligent. I know you guys are loyal. But if you're telling me after Fred Warner went down, after Bosa went down, Brock was out, you still believe this team would have a chance at the one seat? Don't lie to me. Don't lie. You can lie to yourself, just don't lie to me. They do it, they're doing it. But this is going to be a tough game. The San Francisco 49ers versus the Seattle Seahawks. I'm going to love that game. I'm going to let you know something. I'm going to enjoy it either way. It's. It's going to be fantastic football. High level Football from, from both of these coaches. Kyle Shanahan, Mike McDonald, I can't wait for that. But the 49ers have a lot of things they need to get figured out, especially on that back end. I think the D line played solid football. Obviously last in the league in sacks. They're going to have to correct that. But I thought they played solid against the team that, that runs the ball really well. Got their hands up. Alfred Collins knocked the football down in a critical moment. Kalia Davis made a tackle on a critical play. On a screen late in the game, they made plays. And I think in a secondary, that's what it's going to have to come down to in a playoff. Somebody's going to have to make a play. And I thought the 49ers should have, should have went after Asante Samuel Jr. When he was a free agent and he was cleared and they didn't. And I thought that was the issue. And I still think they're going to have to do something. I don't at this point, shoot. I don't know who's out there. I wouldn't mind him calling KK back. I don't know if KK is out there, if he own his couch somewhere. Hey, stretch out, warm your legs up. Let's see if you can still do it. Because right now that nickel spot is an issue. And, and if it continues to be an issue, that's going to be the demise of this team. But all that said, a winning football team this Sunday night, it's all going to come down to who can execute for the division. The Rams are going to be. It's. It's pretty much seated for them. They can't win the division because it's coming down to the 49ers and the Seahawks. I can't wait to see that game. Honestly, I wish they could flex it to Sunday Night Football so I could sit here on my couch and eat popcorn. Because in 19, it came down to something like this last play. Dre Greenlaw at the, at the, at the goal line with everything. Oh, man, I remember that game like it was yesterday. Who. This is another cardiac season. And I know everybody still got their adrenaline rushing and going to go to work tomorrow feeling great. I'm looking forward to hearing what Kyle Shanahan and Brock Purdy have to say. Drake, George Kittle will be coming back. And can Frederico get back at some point during his playoffs? Let me walk you through a little scenario I was thinking about, because they're going to have to open his window for the playoffs. During the playoffs, I would imagine for him to have a chance to play, I don't think, I don't think they can open his window up the same week that he's expected to play and expect him to have success. And there's a lot of. Fred is a special individual, but that's asking a lot of, for him to, to practice and expect to play for the first time that week. I think they, they, they work him in, try to, try to work him in the scout team, just get him lightly, you know, slowly but surely work him in. Maybe if they get the bye week, during the bye week, then maybe allow him to practice some, some scout team and run around and see how his foot feels on scout team during the, during a divisional practice week. And if he can make it through that without too much soreness and, and, and feeling okay and, and the team gets a win that week, I wouldn't be surprised if they played him and that that's what my timeline would be. If they don't activate him by the first week, first divisional week, then I think it's going to be a long shot for him to play. But, but that could be cool. That'd be a huge boost for this de defense, for morale, for everything in the building. But again, masterful job by Kyle Shanahan. I know that Ben Johnson's done a great job with the Bears. I know that VRA has done a great job with the Patriots. I know Mike McDonald with the Seahawks. But this is incredible. This is incredible. And I remember Kyle not getting coach of the year in 2019 when, when we were coming off a four win season and we start the season eight. No undefeated and we go off to get the number one seed for the NFC and he still didn't get coach of the year. And they were, I forget their excuses, but whatever it was, it was it he deserved coach of the year that year. And now they're saying, oh well, we got all these first year coaches that deserve it because hey, it's your first year and they turn these programs around like so now it matters now, now turning a, a team from worst to first matters for coach of the year because you didn't give it to him when he did it. Now you're not going to give it to him when he has a stacked team. You're not going to give it to him when his team isn't stacked and everybody's injured and he coaches them for a chance at the one seed. I don't know how he's ever Going to get it. But this was a great game and, and I love the, the chess match from Kyle Shanahan and the way Brock Purdy was, was, was just executing that play in the red zone where he scrambled out to the left, he juked out, the defender, looked like he was gonna run. Pulled up two more Bears defenders and then hit. I think it was Juice in the corner for, for a touchdown. I mean, those are the plays you see Mahomes and Josh Allen making. And they play it on ESPN for, for days and days and they say these are, this is why these guys are the best quarterbacks in the league. And this is what, that's why, hey, Niners fans, that's why Brock's getting paid the big bucks. This game right here, the last game against the Colts. That's why he's getting paid the big bucks. And you know he's going to play this way in the playoffs. I think that's the big difference between him and some of these other young quarterbacks that are playing at a high level that just have no playoff experience yet is he's shown it in the playoffs. He's played like this in the playoffs, in NFC championship games and divisionals when a team's down. Played well in the Super Bowl. I think he's going to play well in the playoffs this year and I'm looking forward to it. But Ready or Not is on sale now for the holidays. A breakout hit with over 13 million global players.

What a game. What a game. What a what a what a what a what a matchup. It sets up next week, but another game that was pivot to the playoff race, especially in the afc, was the Eagles versus The Bills. And the Eagles were able to pull this game out 13 12. Not often do you see a a game in 13 to 12. The Eagles started off fast in the first half with some turnovers and moving the ball, but in the second half really got stagnant. And that's that second half of that game was a microcosm of what this season was, a microcosm of what this season has been for the Philadelphia Eagles. Everybody wants to believe in them because they're the reigning super bowl champions. But then when your offense disappears for entire halves of a football game, it's hard to believe. And, and it came down to a two point conversion that Buffalo wasn't able to convert. But it's hard to believe in the, in the Philadelphia Eagles right now. And it's also hard to believe in the Buffalo Bills. You know, these teams just look like shells of themselves, shells of the teams that they've been in the past years. But you got to also respect championship pedigree in the playoffs. These guys have been there. They're not going to be scared at a moment they're going to play some teams that haven't been as deep in the playoffs, whether it's the Seahawks or the Rams in the first round. And it's going to be a dog fight. And I, and I look forward to that. It's going to be some really great matchups, especially on the NFC side and on the AFC side. This Buffalo Bills loss and gives the Patriots the the AFC east for the first time in, I want to say five or six years. It, it got to be six years because the Buffalo Bills have been dominating it. But for the Eagles to have no passing yards in the second half again, you're going to have a hard time quieting those, those whispers and murmurs about Kevin Patulo and this offense. You're going to have a hard time quieting those, especially if, if they struggle in the playoffs and go home early, if they lose in the first round of the playoffs. I mean, I would expect some things to happen, some changes to happen, whether it's staff, whether it's roster, I would expect changes to happen in a big way and not just them. I expect that to happen for the Bills as well because this is, this is about as good of a year in the playoffs as the Bills could ask for. A good as good of a field and the inexperienced field full of young teams with not a lot of playoff experience. There's no Patrick Mahomes, there's no Joe Burrow, there's a potential, no Lamar Jackson if they lose to the Pittsburgh Steelers next week. So it's going to be a real big conversation. And not, not to say Josh has played fantastic in the playoffs. Josh has played phenomenal. Let's not take anything away from Josh Allen. But if he does not win it this year or take his team to a Super bowl, that's going to be a tough conversation. And I'm sure Buffalo Bills fans are saying the same thing about McDermott and the staff. Like if, if not now, then when? If not now, then when. And this, this Buffalo Bills team isn't as good as the Buffalo Bills teams they've had in the past, but they will have to find a way. So the Bills right now are the seventh seed in the afc. And, and I mean if you're the Bills fans, like are you that confident you could play the New England Patriots to two seat it's division opponent, you're familiar with each other. It's been a dog fight every time. Would you feel comfortable with them? Maybe you know Drake may played at a high level, you would feel like you could win that game. But what happens if they lose? What happens if the Buffalo Bills go home? They go to Gillette, lose. There's going to have to be changes and if they go to Gillette and win, cool. That's a great, that's a big time win. And then you have the Denver Broncos and, and, and you got to go through a tough path and I, I'm not sure this Buffalo Bills team, how they're currently constructed can do that. Maybe they can and I'll be surprised but they haven't shown that this season. But Buffalo Bills fans, you could get in the, get in the comments and tell me if I'm wrong, if I'm seeing something different, but it just hasn't seemed as sharp of a Buffalo Bills team as I've seen in the past going into these playoffs. It was, it was, it was heavy rain in this game. There was elements, but there's elements on both sides and Buffalo that, that they say that's their advantage, it's playing outdoors and elements they don't ever want to play in the dome? Well, this is what you get now. So I don't know. I don't know. But it's been a fantastic week of football. Things are starting to tighten down. Things are starting to be decided. The seedings are starting to get figured out and I mean, you couldn't have scripted it any better if you're the National Football League division game for the one seed, one seed still up for grabs on the other side. What a game. Don't you love this game? As always, I appreciate you joining me. You could be anywhere in the world, but you're here with me and I surely do appreciate it.
