Javon Hargrave | Why Some NFL Players Hate Playing for the 49ers...Being Scared of Deebo Samuel??

applepodcast@howstuffworks.com (iHeartPodcasts) — Fri, 12 Jan 2024 04:00:00 +0000

Javon Hargrave joined us during our livestream! We discuss the difference between the Eagles' and 49ers' culture and how some people just aren't cut out to play on this 49er team. Would you rather have Deebo running at you with the ball or have to try and survive a Trent Williams block? What is it like to be selected for the Pro Bowl and who has the best stadium in the NFL? It's time to get locked in for the playoffs so let's take advantage of the fact that we aren't playing this week and come back ready to go.

Happy New Year everybody and welcome back to Third and Long. It feels good to be the number 1 seed in the NFC after another big win against the Commanders. I’m not lying when I say this is the best 49er team that I have been on since entering the league and our guy Brock Purdy bounced back last game in a big way. What is it like to sit out with injury and how have I been supporting my teammates from the sideline? Got to give a big shout out to the 49er faithful for all the support this year and be ready for us to get busy in the playoffs.

applepodcast@howstuffworks.com (iHeartPodcasts) — Fri, 22 Dec 2023 08:00:00 +0000

On this episode I am joined by my guy Javon Kinlaw. This man is doing his thing this year in the league but what people don’t see is all the hard work behind the scenes that has got him to this point. Javon opens up about growing up in a tough environment and how even though he didn’t originally love football, it has taken him to a place where he thought he never would be. We talk about what it was like to be drafted by the 49ers and what it meant to his family and friends. What is it like to be sidelined because of injury and have to fight your way back? I have said it before and I’ll say it again, JK really has the talent and potential to be one of the best.

Charvarius Ward | Why he's a Top 5 Cornerback, Going Undrafted and Best Wide Receivers in the NFL

applepodcast@howstuffworks.com (iHeartPodcasts) — Thu, 14 Dec 2023 08:00:00 +0000

Today I am joined by my guy Charvarius Ward. This man went from going undrafted to becoming a star in this league. What was the Game Plan when he faced Jimmy Garoppolo and us in the Super Bowl and what was it like to win it all? If you didn’t know, Charvarius got to the bag so we discuss his journey to the 49ers and his aspirations to become a Pro Bowler. He truly is the definition of a Lockdown Corner so who are some other guys around the NFL that also fit that description and on the offensive side of the ball, who does he think are the best Wide Receivers in the league? We also breakdown some game film from this year so you can get a sense of what he sees out there on the field and we discuss why the Cornerback position is the toughest to play. This is another one you don’t want to miss!

Welcome back to another episode of Third and Long. This win against the Eagles felt a little special and was anyone surprised that we ended up running away with this one? It was definitely an emotional game and took a crazy turn when my guy Dre Greenlaw got ejected but I couldn’t be more proud with how we performed on both sides of the ball. Who do you think should be a Pro Bowler this Year? Tune in because I break down the guys on both the Offensive and Defensive line that I believe deserve to be there. Guys like Bosa and Mack are locks but are there some other players that fans might be sleeping on?

My guy Brandon Aiyuk joins me on this week’s episode. He has had a crazy journey to the league from grinding his way through JUCO to taking off at Arizona State. Why did he turn down an offer from Nick Saban and Alabama and decide to stick with ASU?

This guy has had an immediate impact since he joined the 49ers so we discuss his relationship with Brock Purdy and what his mindset is when he takes the field?

My 49er teammate Nick Bosa joins us for this episode of Third and Long! This man is an issue on the field and deservedly took home last year’s Defensive Player of the Year Award. What is it like to sign a massive contract and how do you deal with the pressure associated with it? What is it like to play with his college teammate Chase Young and are Sacks an overrated stat? Nick also talks about some of the guys he thinks are the best Defensive Ends in the league and who he likes to watch. Not everything is about what happens on the field so we discuss Nick’s relationship with his brother and of course his new deal with SKIMS that went viral.

Chase Young is HERE…Is This the Most Dangerous Defense in the NFL?

applepodcast@howstuffworks.com (iHeartPodcasts) — Tue, 7 Nov 2023 20:38:52 +0000

Everybody handles their bye week differently but it truly is the perfect time to just relax and prepare for the second half of the season. It was hard to relax after we made the move for Chase Young! A second overall pick and Defensive Rookie of the year back in 2020, everybody knows how dangerous this man is off the edge. What will his chemistry be like with former Ohio State teammate Nick Bosa and is he the final piece we need to get us to the Super Bowl? The focus has now shifted to this week’s matchup against the Jags and this is the perfect opportunity for us to get back on track.

What do we need to do to start winning? Burrow and the Bengals got the best of us!

applepodcast@howstuffworks.com (iHeartPodcasts) — Wed, 1 Nov 2023 00:56:16 +0000

Week 8 of the season is in the books and after another hard fought game, we unfortunately lost our third in a row. Joe Burrow was really doing his thing as their Offense did a great job of mixing it up against us. Even though I saw some success and had two sacks, I wish we came away with a win. What is the mindset throughout the organization when you are in the midst of a losing streak and how can we look to bounce back? There were a lot of expectations put on this team this year and we truly believe we have what it takes to not only get back into our winning form but to go on a run!

Any Given Sunday…Joe Burrow Better Be Ready This Week!

applepodcast@howstuffworks.com (iHeartPodcasts) — Thu, 26 Oct 2023 23:06:17 +0000

Losing in the NFL can leave a bad taste in your mouth but the only thing we are thinking about now is that next matchup. I think people forget how hard it is to win in the NFL and there is a reason why people say “Any Given Sunday.” Kirk Cousins was cooking and we’ll face more great quarterbacks down the road so we’ll take the lessons learned from this game and bounce back. Joe Burrow and the Bengals have a good team but they better be ready because this is a huge opportunity for us to get back into the win column.

No matter what people say about Jake Moody, he is our guy and we are confident that he and the rest of the team will bounce back. This is the type of adversity our team needed to see and I couldn’t be more proud of the effort our guys displayed on both sides of the ball. Tune in to hear my thoughts on the ending of this game, the pregame scuffle and how we can build off of this loss.

Beating the Cowboys, 49ers Can’t Stop Winning, George Kittle Went Crazy and More…

applepodcast@howstuffworks.com (iHeartPodcasts) — Tue, 10 Oct 2023 19:04:52 +0000

Another week down and another big win against the Cowboys for us to go 5-0 on the season. Going into this game, we thought we were going into our toughest matchup of the season but we dominated on both sides of the ball. My guy George Kittle could not stop finding the end zone and I think it’s fair to say that we have two MVP front-runners in Christian McCaffrey and Brock Purdy. Our Defense was also out there forcing turnovers and there is nothing like having stars like Dre Greenlaw and Fred Warner backing you up. The focus has already shifted to next week so let’s keep the streak alive!

McCaffrey is a BEAST, Purdy was Pretty Much Perfect and the 49ers Can’t Stop Winning | Week 4 Recap

applepodcast@howstuffworks.com (iHeartPodcasts) — Tue, 3 Oct 2023 12:46:15 +0000

The Cardinals fought hard but we came away with another big W to go 4-0 on the season. I love how our Offense keeps wearing down teams and how my guy Christian McCaffrey put on a show with four touchdowns. He wasn’t the only one, as Purdy again was efficient with the ball and Aiyuk just kept finding holes in that Defense for big yardage plays. I felt like our Defense dominated the line of scrimmage but there are definitely a couple things we need to clean up to keep this win streak going. Next week’s matchup is against the Cowboys so you already know the lights will be bright and that will be another tough game. Make sure to tune in to this episode because I break down some of the key plays that led us to this Week 4 victory and talk about who specifically I am looking forward to matching up against in Week 5.

Week 3 Recap | Deebo Samuel is a Beast, Ronnie Bell’s First TD and More!

applepodcast@howstuffworks.com (iHeartPodcasts) — Sat, 23 Sep 2023 22:43:16 +0000

Thursday night games always go crazy but just happy to come out with W and go 3-0 on the season! I’ve said it before but one of our offseason priorities was to get off to a good start this year and we are definitely doing that. A lot happened in this game and my guy Deebo Samuel aka “The YAC King” looked straight up unstoppable. Also, special shoutouts to our rookie Ronnie Bell for scoring his first career TD and to my guy Javon Kinlaw who continues to be a disruptor on the defensive side.

Big Win Against the Rams | The Turnover Battle, Jauan Jennings, The 49ers’ Secondary, and More!

applepodcast@howstuffworks.com (iHeartPodcasts) — Tue, 19 Sep 2023 01:32:27 +0000

The Rams were a tough matchup but we came through with the big win! Shoutout to the 49er faithful because you all showed up to SoFi Stadium and made it feel like a home game. It is so important to execute in these divisional matchups and this was an exciting one as we have had our fair share of battles with the Rams. This game really came down to the turnover battle and not only did our Offense protect the ball but we were flying around and making plays on Defense. I think it’s fair to say we have the best linebacker group in the NFL and our secondary was locked in. Listen in to hear me highlight some key plays and some of my teammates that helped us secure the W. It’s a short turnaround for our game against the Giants so be ready for Thursday night!
