On the 49ers podcast with Joe:

#1 The Arizona Cardinals have had problems all season, including taking a 0-4 record into Levis Stadium this Sunday against the 49ers. Can the 49ers get win number two against a wounded Cardinal team?

#2 Speaking of wounded, 49er quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo had surgery on Wednesday morning for the torn ACL left knee. Head coach Kyle Shanahan said it was too early to predict when Garoppolo would be back.

#3 49ers running back Jerick McKinnon, who had his ACL torn on September 1st, was on crutches with a brace for his right knee related to Garoppolo’s injury, saying the only thing they could do is push each other during the next nine months to recover.

#4 C.J. Beathard had a good outing against the LA Chargers at Levi’s Stadium on Sunday. It may only be one game, but could that be an indication that Beathard will have the ability to make some plays this Sunday against the Cardinals?

#5 Left tackle Joe Staley, center Weston Richburg and right tackle Mike McGlinchey didn’t practice. All three suffered knee injuries during Sunday’s against the Chargers.
