Down no timeouts for Washington.
Daniels takes the snap he drops back on the Niner logo Daniels under pressure Daniels is sacked and that is how this game will end the 49ers bring him down and a heart pounder ends with the 49ers winning and improving to 6-0 well the D-line got to hunt all night and here on the final play with a three-man rush they get to eat.
Great call there by Guy Haberman and Tim Ryan on KSAN. That was the 49ers radio breathing a huge sigh of relief as the undefeated San Francisco 49ers hold on to B. the Washington commanders 23 to 17, which looked like a game that we weren't going to have a lot to talk about in terms of tension. We were just going to talk about how the 49ers are the best team on the planet right now. And through, you know, 40 minutes of this game, that's what it was Jordan Rodrigue.
And yet.
The commanders somehow got the ball back two different times and in position to potentially.
Win this game.
There's a lot to talk about now, but how about the way that the commanders finished this game and the way that the 49ers defense in the end did hold up two different times?
Yeah, pretty incredible watching.
We, you know, we were gushing about this defensive line sort of off broadcast earlier, Greg, just the way that they were getting off the line of scrimmage, you know, of the pressure they got tonight, seven quick pressures, you know, Ruello height is at the end, Mick in the mix with Oba Akronquo, you know, combining to split the sack.
He's got a club on his hand. He's showing the club off too.
And it just, there's so much juice with this young defense and they really stepped in and showed that they're beyond their years. collectively as a group to finish the game the way that they did in such a high leverage, high pressure situation.
Yeah.
And there were, there was a couple of moments late.
Like I mentioned, you, you felt like maybe the game winning play was going to be on the drive previous to that. The commanders get the ball back. They drive it deep. They have a touchdown opportunity. turned back by penalty um and it was a good call it was a face mask but it looked like the commanders had briefly taken the lead instead a penalty knocked them back all the way to the 46 yard line then in that drive looked over but a penalty by the 49ers kept it alive and we got to a fourth down situation where treylon burks uh and eventually the Goes up for the ball, and Malik Mustafa, who has been a sneaky, important player this entire season, makes the play of the night for the 49ers.
I think we got that. Inside receiver, three to the right. Shotgun snap to Daniels. He drops back. He steps up.
He throws.
Four to the end zone, and it's broken up by Malik Mustafa right at the pylon, and the 49ers take over. What a play by Malik.
Just defying slash using the laws of physics and gravity and mass and force and acceleration and everything to knock that ball loose. Every universal tool at his disposal, he tried to put to use.
In that moment.
It was an incredible attempt by Traylon Burks. It would have been an amazing attempt. contested catch. It was a even better play by Malik Mustafa. And again, gravity and the ground helping him out a little bit too, because that was so hard to hang on to. The third and three right before that was also a play that was stuffed by Malik Mustafa.
And so that's what I'm saying. We have said over and.
Over again, Greg, that these dudes were are reading and reacting so fast and they are flying to the ball with force and rage and joy.
And like, it is fun to watch.
Almost got away from him for a minute there, but it was so fun to watch that group play.
Yeah, through, like I said, the first 40 minutes or so of this game before the commanders drive in the middle of the third quarter that they ended up scoring on. It was 51 plays to 21. It was great complimentary football by the 49ers offense holding on to the ball. But late in the game and it was quick, the commanders started to come up with answers.
And that's one thing.
You know, I see someone in the comments, you know, everyone joining us.
Live on YouTube.
We appreciate you. I'm saying no more moral victories for this team. And, and it was tough. They're playing without Terry McLaurin at the end of the game. But they also have all these mental mistakes. And I have seen with this young coaching staff, it's like, parts of games you see it it's like they had no answer for the blitz for the giants for too long last week and then they kind of figured it out in overtime and similarly that happened tonight where they they made some plays late and i think similarly their defense figured out some things late but you have to give raheem morris some credit because man no nick posa and mustafa You know, week after week, he is in the mix. And you know, I'm an all pro voter this year. It's just like,
I'm making these lists of just like watch lists. Like he's been a guy who is popping week after week in addition to his buddy, Fred Warner. But what about, what do you think about when you watch other than just like the physicality or maybe that's it, this 49ers defense and what Raheem Morris has been able.
For the first big portion of this.
Game they're faster than I think teams anticipate like their play speed is faster than I think they even sometimes look when you're watching like condensed film after game they look fast but their defensive backfield is playing really really well they're getting more than what these guys look like on paper and schematically it's interesting and I you know I covered the the Rams when Raheem Morris was was the DC there and one of the biggest things that Rams fans would just go crazy over and sometimes rightfully so was when they couldn't see their corners on the screen because they were playing in.
Such a deep shell.
And it was the style of play that the Rams were wanting to play to limit those explosives. They sort of are playing a little bit more freely in a sense with Raheem Morris in San Francisco. Cause they, they don't give a F about the explosives. It seems like, cause they're playing tighter. That's my point is they obviously care still about that, but like they're playing tighter. They're playing a tighter match down to the ball, which again, it only happens with a lot of really important communication.
The re addition to Fred Warner in the middle of this defense, getting all of that communication aligned is, That to me is such a game changer in the 49ers being able to play this aggressive style of defense that they want, you know, like he is able to set up their entire operation in such a way where they're not thinking they're just reacting and playing and it shows.
Some defenses are front to back, some are back to front and they're like middle Fred Warner.
And then to back and then maybe a little bit of front and yes, middle. Like it starts there.
And we have a great comment from our friend, Will Gavin at TalkSport, who's a 49ers fan and must have gotten up early or stayed up late in the UK for this one. But he's saying pay Raheem Morris like a head coach and make him Mike Shanahan's Steve Spagnuolo. And Raheem Morris had a great clip last week that went viral about enjoying the job that he had, being asked about whether he wanted to be a head coach ever again. And he didn't answer it directly, but he essentially said, sometimes you got to appreciate what you do have because we are very lucky to have these jobs that we do have. And I bet he is having a lot of fun tonight. Will, by the way, doing 49ers radio. I should have known they got a deal
over there in the UK. So he's coming down after the game as a big time fan. And look, they almost blew this one. And this is not a game where I'm going to point too many fingers because it all happened fast.
And I think.
The commanders are better than the record indicates, and I'm glad even though they did blow some things poise wise late, which reminded you. A little bit of last week for them to be in a similar situation.
End of game. We'll get into that.
But I did want to mention the 49ers kind of let the commanders back in this game in a way because of the two, three and outs. Now, it wasn't a game with a lot of possessions, but in those two, three and outs in the fourth quarter in which the commander started making their comebacks. Can you guess how many design runs that Christian McCaffrey had in those two?
Series why don't.
You just tell me you know two.
I'm trying to set you up you're gonna get.
Better at these quizzes because zero zero christian mccaffrey runs and i know brock birdie was playing incredible but he takes a sack on one of them he there's a negative play on another and suddenly they get into these third long situations and dorante jones starts cooking him up and at that point in the game jordan christian mccaffrey and kailyn black had a 75 design success rate they were killing the commanders So I know.
It's just a couple plays, small sample size. Brock Purdy was cooking too.
But going away from McCaffrey there did feel like a bit of a mistake. And I do want to give Durante Jones some credit for being able to mix things up and get a little more creative in the second half than he was in the first.
It was interesting.
He adjusted really well, in my opinion, because Kyle Shanahan came out with a game plan where they were going to try to take the teeth out of that blitz by going no huddle a lot. And, you know, that in where they could to make sure that the 49ers... or excuse me, that the commander's blitz packages maybe couldn't manifest as.
Fully as he would have liked. And it wasn't working. They were carving him up.
Brock Purdy in the first half, the 49ers in the first half, 17 first downs and over 300 yards of offense. Brock Purdy was 17 for 22 for 214 yards and a touchdown. in that first half and played incredible. But then, you know, Mike Evans goes out, right? And that changes their plan in a big way. And you can't always do the non-communicative stuff when one of your best players leaves the game. And so now you're starting to say, okay, got to adjust, got to figure things out, see what voids and what areas we can attack in the passing game still are. And they start to struggle and, and the three and outs, it was to watch them move the ball the way.
That they did.
And then on the reverse to, to struggle like that, it could have, it could have truly tilted it. If the, if the commanders were able to fully capitalize, they did, you know, they did once, but if they were able to fully capitalize, the 49ers would have maybe been down to the actual wire on this one in the end.
Cause in that second half, Brock Purdy is just, you know, not a lot of place, obviously four for seven for 50 yards.
Um and so that that three straight.
Three and outs yeah.
It ended up that way and they did have one long drive where I think they did they got what they wanted where they took a lot of clock off they end up settling for a field goal Kyle Shanahan who I've noticed has definitely like most of the coaches gotten fourth down religion in a way that.
I appreciate Troy Aikman's protests right he found fourth down religion praise be Right.
Troy Aikman, who never follows up after the points where he said, oh yeah, analytics says to go for it.
You know, analytics, that's one way to get you fired.
Cut to easy fourth and three scramble by Brock Purdy.
Later in the game, I think it was just a straight up.
Push push type sneak by Brock Purdy, which our friend Bram Weinstein, who I was listening to on the radio because I had to drive into work last minute because my Internet crashed at my house at the worst time.
Like we're going to Paris tomorrow.
I know.
Yeah, I was going through it, but I.
Was listening on the radio and he called it the gold rush that the Brock Purdy sneak.
And I don't want to look past.
How good they were in the first half at points. This offense just looks completely unstoppable. You mentioned Mike Evans. He had three catches for 96 yards. He just got open so easily, 94 yards rather. And he's playing through multiple injuries. He gets up you know gingerly after he gets up each time and you just think how is this guy playing week after week because of the ribs but then Troy Aikman says it's really the Achilles that's bothering him and you saw that is what he went out of the game with he was trying to stretch it they showed him afterwards and it's incredible how effective Evans and this entire passing attack has been despite these injuries and you hope Unlike Terry McLaurin, that this, you know,
I hope both of them are not serious based on how the Terry McLaurin injury looked, Jordan.
I'm not a doctor.
They put him in a little cast there. It did not look good. It looked like, unfortunately, a really serious injury, hopefully for Mike Evans, because they really they really need him as much as as good as they are without him.
They really need him.
Hopefully this is something he can get back or maybe arrest him for a week or two. And then he's fine after that because he's awesome in this offense.
And they're 6-0.
And they could live without him for a week or two. It's more about trying to win a Super Bowl this year.
Yeah, and forgive me, I was looking to see if Kyle Shanahan had addressed it yet and he hasn't so far. So we'll stay tuned on that. I'm sure he'll be asked about that immediately post game. But yeah, it was interesting. I could tell something was weird with Mike Evans early, not because he was playing any different.
He looked amazing on some of those.
Catches, but on that 54 yarder catch and run, which was a great ball, great catch. And then he ran after the catch and then was eventually pushed out in the first quarter, I believe.
No.
Yeah.
In the first half.
Second quarter.
Yeah.
Second quarter.
And, and he sat for a moment on the sideline and right before the camera cut away, you could see him sitting and he grabbed both of his toes and he sort of stretched them back and he flexed them back for both of his feet.
And I was like, Ooh.
So either he's feeling something in his hamstring or his Achilles, and I hope it's neither, but it was a little bit of a tell right then and there that maybe he was going to start feeling it a little sooner rather than later.
I am going to award the player of the week in just a few minutes, but this is what's.
Called the professional tease here, Jordan.
Suspense.
We do have to.
Talk about the plot line of the commander season and how last season, last week ended with game management and how going into this week, Ooh, Monday night football. And you know, they're in primetime a couple of times coming up. They have the Eagles also in primetime in a couple of weeks. And you just thought, Oh, I don't think it makes any sense to fire Dan Quinn in the season.
I think everyone knew this season is an audition. I think he has shown, including in Atlanta during one of their good seasons when they were really scuffling for a while and then went on a late streak. I think they have a better chance of rebounding with him and seeing this thing through. But as it was 23 to three, you know, you did start. I at least started to wonder, man, this thing is like really starting to snowball.
So I'm glad it turned around in a way.
And yet I'm going to point out three different spots where it just wasn't on point. Number one, there was a fourth down sequence early in the game where there's an illegal motion and they had a lot of penalties tonight. It's just a sloppy operation before, after the snap, but especially before that. and Jaden Daniels is on fourth down, and he throws the ball like 15 yards out of bounds.
It wouldn't have mattered anyways because there was a penalty on him, but it's like, oh man, that's on Jaden, that's on everyone, but that can't happen. I was listening to the broadcast as I was telling you about the commanders, and they were noting how so many times the players did not know the plays. And that's something where they were really like keen in on that Chico Conco was improvising, trying to figure out what was happening. Deami Brown at one point didn't really know what the play call was and is just running around and they're actually making it work.
Some of this is during the comeback, but there's confusion. And then the play is coming out late and they have to burn a timeout late in the game and that was really costly look that happens to good coaches too sometimes but they just didn't get the play call in time for their fourth down so they had to burn a timeout and that really cost.
Them the amount of time that.
They could have had on their subsequent drive when their defense was playing great at that point.
Got another three and out.
So it's just different parts of the team kind of letting different parts of the team down.
What was your take from.
All that and kind of the operation and how it looks here for Dan Quinn?
Yeah, some of it for me would have been frustrating to watch if I were a commanders fan, because some of those things happen after like big gains or in crucial moments where, again, high leverage situations like the first one that you pointed out that really promising drive early in the game. you know, that big Chigokonko gain, all of a sudden the goal area, the fourth down, the throwaway, just sort of, you know, it's a womp, womp, womp, like to the end of like what was a really promising sequence, truly. There were plays where they're in the middle of these really intense and necessary situations where everybody has to stay calm and be composed. And, you know, the running back, who who's in, cause you know, Bill
Krosky merits not in. And he, you know, he runs right into Jaden Daniels when he's trying to figure out what side he's going to be on. And, and, and so it's these little things, the, the end, you know, throwing the ball, the intentional grounding, which caused the 10 second runoff and those types of things. They just can't, they just can't happen at the end of the game.
And they can't happen in at the beginning of the game in high leverage moments, because it took the commanders a minute to try to, you know, regather themselves after that. And the 49ers were just a wagon on offense for the first half. So you, you can't afford to make mistakes like that.
And the frustrating thing.
And I've, I'm not usually someone who pulls commanders, but I've enjoyed watching them this season and they've been a frust. I've almost felt like a fan because I think what you saw tonight was really typical of their season that there were like 20 minutes per game where it really looked great. And Jaden Daniels, is not a seasoned quarterback right now. And there were a couple inaccurate passes, but man, he also made a lot of great plays and led them on this comeback. And in the end, they get to 61 plays and he ends up with 300 yards and a couple of touchdowns. Like he, he has looked better this season without a doubt than he did last season in my mind. um i just think i think he's looked closer to where he was as a rookie
and like you can see like it's not that far away from clicking in and the defense like i said has has had moments and some of the pickups that they had especially on defense unfortunately javon kinlaw goes out tonight have had moments okonkwo is back like rashad white had a touchdown tonight i think he's been okay in in his spot and it's like the commanders are going against philly and the giants uh coming up and we have you know if you're noting um asking saying is he crazy to think that it's not over no in this division it's not over because I don't think the Giants are a good team I don't think the Cowboys are really playing like a good team and the Eagles are a total mess and so if you're talking about
not over in the sense of getting one of those old school commanders or you know, eight and nine, but we win the NFC East that way, kind of like the Panthers won the NFC South. Like, I think that's on the table. I think that's possible. I am not giving up on this team.
Hell, let's listen. Why not?
Let's listen to part of the comeback because it was a nice moment before we transitioned to Christian McCaffrey and what we saw good out of the Brock Purdy experience today. Let's hear that Rashad White touchdown because I love to hear a little Bram Weinstein. Actually, we'll be watching it if you're on YouTube the Rashad White touchdown was I thought a really nice play by Jaden Daniels and in general during this comeback I think he was making good and composed decisions Let's just go to the Monday Night Football Player of the Week.
It's too late. I've been here.
I need to go home.
You scooped yourself anyway. You kind of already revealed it.
If the listeners are paying attention here, they know you already revealed it.
Yes, it is going to be Kristen McCaffrey, who to me, I'm just giving it a little bit as an award here because of... how composed, how much better he's run this season than I expected.
And it's a pat on.
The back for Kyle Shanahan for actually executing the plan of giving him fewer touches and giving Kalon Black more carries. He ends up with nine catches for 53 yards and 16 carries for 64 yards. But it was really the efficiency early in the game. So let's listen to one of those Christian McCaffrey touchdowns.
McCaffrey, eye formation behind Purdy. Here's the snap.
Christian looking, pushing, pushing, pushing.
And he's in! Touchdown, 49ers! A marathon drives and then six.
Number two on the night for CMC, and that was.
All about effort.
I think he's pointing up to his parents.
Both of them were in the stands and the broadcast kept cutting to them. Pro move by Ed McCaffrey there to cover both of those. his, his mouth wasn't when he was clearly stressed about some, some situations. It's like Luke McCaffrey's on the other team and Christian McCaffrey's on the, obviously on the leading the 49ers. He, I thought he had a great game. You know, it was kind of cool watching after he fumbled. It was a, it was a great punch out.
Right.
But, but after that, it's like his first fumble and like over 500 touches and the broadcast was sort.
Of detailing like what he did.
He went and apologized to everyone and then was like steaming and stewing on the sideline.
And then They go right back to him.
And in fact, they were so the defense at that point was so nervous about some of the explosive plays that they were giving a lot of cushion in the coverage, which they tightened down on a little bit later.
But they were so nervous about it.
And then there's like a two back set in and Brock Purdy's like, why is Christian McCaffrey literally wide.
Open on the left flat?
Cool.
I'm going to throw it to that guy.
And just like big gain after big game, they go on something like a 14 play drive the series after, you know, after he had fumbled their next offensive series.
And he's the one that scores a touchdown.
You know, for me, it's like really good teams do those like poetry moment things like that. And really good players know how to execute them.
I love that shout out and that context. And that's so true. This 49ers team is awesome. I do think they're the best team in the NFL. They led the NFL in DVOA, which is my favorite total efficiency stat, by a lot. They are way ahead of number two. I think people nitpick here and there. It takes schedule into account, all that. They're just complete, and they can find different ways to win. One group I don't think has gotten enough credit, which I think stood out tonight.
Their offensive line is playing really well. They've been healthy up front for the first time in a while. They have a lot of continuity there. They obviously coach it up well. You have a first ballot Hall of Famer in Trent Williams. I think they've been run blocking much better, but they've really been pass protecting well. The four-man rush for the commanders in the first half, guess how many pressures they had, Jordan?
Zero.
Zero.
See, you know.
I was tracking that the whole game, damn it.
And yes, they got more in the second half when they sent some pressures, and that's good. I think it was two entertaining teams going back and forth. But yes, Christian McCaffrey gets the award here this week just because I really appreciated how hard.
He has run.
I had my doubts coming off that heavy workload season, but he is just an absolute force. That was the player of the week presented by Nationwide. for your insurance and financial needs nationwide is on your side. So is Brock Purdy quickly. Cause we're going to get out of here, but Brock Purdy in the pocket is so calm against pressure and he makes it look so easy.
And some of these throws are rather easy, but they're not all easy.
And I'm just really appreciating how good he is. And sometimes you have to take a step back and realize like, man, we're really here. The Brock Purdy, Kyle Shanahan era is, is really strong together, Jordan.
You've had a front row seat for it.
And I always say the Eagles and the Rams are the defining teams of this decade. But man, the 49ers aren't that far off. And they have a real chance this year to go to their third Super Bowl under Kyle Shanahan. And it would be their second under Brock Purdy and I think they're just at a higher level offensively than they've ever been and he's found his quarterback Kyle Shanahan and these two guys it's just great to see him improving don't you like I don't want to put words in your mouth but to me he is a better player than he's ever been like it's been a steady improvement and he's still a young player and I do like like to take a step back and appreciate that sometime that this this kid uh is awesome.
I just think I was thinking about this earlier today I think you know, when I was a beat writer, one of the coolest things that you could like be a witness to was watching young people grow up and like watching people.
Become who they are.
Right.
But putting, putting the work in to do it and having the right people around them to, to, to do that.
And sometimes it doesn't happen that way. And sometimes it does. And with Brock Purdy, I agree.
I think it's been a steady ascension of, year over year, over year with him. He is sometimes we've had years where he's we're like, okay, he's got this thing, but he's just still not really doing this thing. And then, then there was the perimeter throws that were coming along, but then the yak stuff went away. And then, you know, now we're seeing the accumulation of all of this experience and lived lessons that he's had and also the play caller has had I think as well in figuring out what is right for them both and what is right for for Brock Purdy and what is right for him is it's pretty much everything at this point because there is not really a throw that I think he can't make and I think he's playing about as well as
we see week over week from any quarterback in the NFL and and he's not making bad mistakes with the football for the most part either.
We have a chat that says, all roads lead to Chiefs beating the 49ers in the Super Bowl again. Man, I couldn't take that for Kyle saying that. That would be too much. I would give the 49ers a chance here. But, hmm, are those the two best teams in the NFL right now? I still, maybe I'm a, like a little bit of a doubt.
I think so.
I think so if I had to choose a second one. But I guess I feel stronger right now that for now, the 49ers, I'm taking over every team on a neutral field, including the Chiefs.
I'd have to think about two, three. Right.
It's it's it only matters so much. But here's the thing about Purdy. He's now elevating everyone else because for all the excuses, all these different teams have rightfully. So with different injuries and what they're missing, the 49ers have a lot of them too. And they're, and they're just getting it done. They are, they are having a really special season now. I mentioned Terry McLaurin earlier leaves with what appeared to be a serious injury. Didn't look good. Well, we'll have to find out what that injury is. I am a jerk, I guess, because I think of, like the downside of all this stuff. And, you know, he had 500 yards last year. He was, he was hurt this year. I, I, I'm just in the habit of quickly checking the contracts. He has no guaranteed money on
his contract. He's that's actually a contract he signed years and years ago. And it's just one of those moments. You really hope like that wasn't, the last snap for Terry McLaurin because he really defines that Washington franchise. And it's something we can talk about in the distant future because hopefully it's something where they can figure something out with this contract. But it's something that I'm sure people in the Commander's organization were thinking when they saw that.
Hopefully not as serious as all that. Heck, I don't like Indiana down night. Maybe let's go back to that Rashad White touchdown.
Why not? Earlier. It's out of place now, but I love Bram Weinstein.
And so let's hear during the commander's comeback, which frankly gave us a much better show.
Jordan, put a big smile on your face. You always have a smile on your face. To the right, White and Sinnott.
To the left.
Empty backfield.
First and goal. Jane has to grab that with one hand.
Throws it to the center of the field. Touchdown.
Touchdown, Washington.
Rashad White.
But there's a penalty flag down in the offensive backfield.
Pick it up.
Yes.
Yes.
This game is back on. Jane Daniels to Rashad White. Nine-yard touchdown pass. And they're an extra point away from being down six.
They both remind me of you so much. I, I'm on, I'm serious. Like their enthusiasm, the Kate, like the way back on, like.
Pick it up.
This is just, I just, I know why you love them so much.
I love them.
I think that they just remind me of what it feels like to watch football with you, which I'm lucky to do every weekend at this point. And you can't get away from me. I will continue to mutter and mumble in your general direction while you have seven sets of headphones on.
Yeah, that's why I put my headphones on, just to keep the Jordan news out.
But yes, that was.
London Fletcher on the call, and he is such a funny homer. They also have Logan Paulson, who's on that broadcast, who brings kind of the analytical X's and O's. And he pointed out how Kyle Shanahan is going to get aggressive late.
He absolutely did.
He's pointing out that like the Stefan Diggs choice route is absolutely the most effective play in this offense. They hit him on a big fourth down in this play. And Stefan Diggs going to have to step up now. I mean, he's getting he's going to get open until he's 45 years old. old uh but flooded fletcher really cracked me up because on the late penalty which kept the drive alive they were trying to figure out who the player was on what the penalty was and he just goes i don't.
Care who's it on or what it is as long.
As it's on them and that's just like that's fandom uh and that's why i was happy i'm always rooting for a close game in the end so we have a bigger show.
It's a great question from our friend john burn who i see makes these um really fun you're on with us I think pretty much weekly, John, thank you for that. And you did say, you aptly pointed out, can you imagine commentating with me?
A classic Greg Rosenthal twist.
Yes, actually I will be commentating with Greg Rosenthal in the talk sport booth this.
Week in Paris.
And yes, I have already picked my power stance because you got to take up space because his hands are going to be flying everywhere and the voice will be spraying and I am so buckled in for this.
I am excited.
I hope the Saints and Steelers deliver for us. That reminds me, we got to get out of here. Like we have a flight to catch. That's not till tomorrow night, but I got to get ready for that. We also have a show, a couple of shows to do before we even get out of here. You know, they're going to work us and we wouldn't have it any other way.
Can't wait to.
Get across the pond this time, all the way over to Paris. Hit that music. Let's get out of here, Dan. That was Jordan Roderick. Thank you, Jordan. She's got columns coming out. She's got reporting going on. She's making it all happen, and she's still on this show giving the best analysis.
We will be back, like I said, on Tuesday.
Something a little different with our friend John Ledyard going.
Around the AFC on this Tuesday. We'll see you then.
