On the 49ers podcast with J Hawkes:

#1 Joe, the last time the San Francisco 49ers Nick Bosa faced quarterback Baker Mayfield was in 2019 when he was with the Cleveland Browns and gave him a time he would never forget with five quarterback hits, two sacks, Bosa also forced Mayfield to fumble resulting in a recovery.

#2 Now in a Carolina Panthers uniform Mayfield could once again feel Bosa’s breath on his neck when scrambling to get rid of the ball. Joe is this Panther’s offensive line better than the one that tried to protect Mayfield when he was in Cleveland.

#3 Joe after four weeks of football Mayfield is now scrambling again of the top ten teams that have seen quarterback sacks surmount the Panthers have seen Mayfield sacked 11 times already in this short month of the season tying him with 8.6 sack percentage for the eighth highest.

#4 On Bosa’s side of the coin he leads the NFL going into week 5 with six sacks already and he’s getting a good read on the opposing offensive line and able to get to the quarterback. He was good in 2019 and he looks like he hasn’t lost anything off getting to sack quarterback some three years later.

#5 Niners and Panthers kick off at 1:05pm talk about how you see both teams matching up on both sides of the football this afternoon?
