The crew reacts to the move and digs into what Morris could change schematically—more disguise, more zone looks, more blitz packages, and a defense that won’t be the same week to week.From there, the discussion shifts to the expanding NFL salary cap and what it means for the Niners’ flexibility, including looming decisions like whether they can afford to keep Jauan Jennings and how they’ll balance free agency with draft replacements.The episode also takes a reflective turn with a tribute to late 49ers legend John Brodie, revisiting his underrated career in the tough-as-nails era, and post-football success—including his time on the senior PGA tour—plus a few classic Niners history nuggets along the way.Then it’s Super Bowl time… unfortunately.
