SF 49ers podcast David Zizmor:

#1 The first game of the NFL season hasn’t even started yet and CBS Sports has predicted that the San Francisco 49ers will win the Super Bowl and Brock Purdy will be named the NFL MVP. Is it a stretch where you sit or that doesn’t surprise you at all?

#2 Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback great Joe Montana predicts that Purdy will bounce back in the 2025 season. Montana said that Purdy doesn’t make many mistakes and is careful with the football.

#3 49ers open up against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday at 1:00pm PT. The Seahawks will be starting at quarterback former 49er Sam Darnold. Darnold has signed a three year $100.5 million deal. Being a former 49er is there any advantage for Darnold knowing the 49ers playbook their strategy and will he have any advantage against the defense going into this game? Also in reverse will it work for 49ers knowing what Darnold could do?
