That’s Amaury News and Commentary podcast: Raiders make revolving door at head coach firing Carroll; How 49ers will fare against Eagles Sunday; plus more news

Published on by Sports Radio ServiceLeave a comment

That’s Amaury News and Commentary podcast:

#1 Amaury, the Las Vegas Raiders fired their head coach Pete Carroll just after one season the Raiders finished the 2025-26 season at 3-14 and just ended a ten game losing streak after defeating the Kansas City Chiefs 14-12 on Sunday. Carroll is the sixth head coach to be fired by the Raiders in as many years.

#2 The San Francisco 49ers loss last Saturday was surprising in that their offense just simply fell flat. 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy who threw for five touchdown the weekend before against the Chicago Bears. Purdy didn’t throw one touchdown and struggled to get any offense off the ground in a critical game against the Seattle Seahawks.

#3 The 49ers now have a tougher task as they prepare to face the Philadelphia Eagles and Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts in the first round of the NFC Playoffs next Sunday. The Eagles like the 49ers lost their last regular game to the Washington Commanders. Do you see the 49ers regrouping and making this game a lot closer on both sides of the ball Sunday?

#4 The Golden State Warriors Draymond Green who you just wrote about recently in one of your editorials was once again ejected last Saturday in his game against the Utah Jazz in a win 123 -114. Green picked up two technical fouls at 2:30 remaining in the second quarter Green argued with officials that the Jazz Kyle Filipowski should have been called for a three second violation while continuing to argue the Jazz Lauri Markkanen hit a short basket was given a technical foul and then a second technical and was ejected. Is Green so important to the team that it’s worth the sacrifice of his ejections that they’ve kept him around all this time?

#5 Turning to baseball and the Sacramento A’s. The A’s will be playing in Las Vegas for one week in June a regular season series against the Milwaukee Brewers and the Cincinnati Reds at their triple A affiliates’ minor league park. Will the week in Vegas give the A’s an idea who will be interested in the team in the Vegas market?

San Francisco 49ers podcast David Zizmor: Will injuries have an impact on 49ers as they meet Cardinals Sunday

San Francisco 49ers podcast David Zizmor:

#1 With Christian McCaffrey still being one of the most versatile offensive weapons in the league, how will the 49ers deploy him against Arizona’s front-seven—and can he exploit any running-lane weaknesses in the Cardinals’ defense?

#2 Given that Mac Jones has been the primary quarterback this season (while Brock Purdy remains uncertain/injured) for San Francisco with 2,151 passing yards so far this year, how might the change in signal-caller impact the 49ers’ offensive rhythm and decision-making?

#3 On the defensive side, how well can the 49ers limit the Cardinals’ offense—especially in the passing game, given Arizona is allowing about 223.7 yards per game through the air so far?

San Francisco 49ers podcast David Zizmor:

#1 San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings is still without a contract and is still negotiating wit the 49ers. Jennings is in his last season of his two year $15.4 million contract that he inked in 2024. Jennings has said he wants a new contract or a trade before opening week Sept 7th. Jennings who left camp with a calf injury has not practiced with the team in training camp and has not be to any of the pre season games.

#2 San Francisco 49ers quarterback Tanner Mordecai had a great outing in his last game against the Los Angeles Chargers in game 3 of the pre season finale. Mordecai threw for ten completed passes out of 13 for 103 yards, a touchdown, no interceptions, no sacks, and rushed for 12 yards on three carries. Do you see Mordecai getting some playing time in the regular season.

#3 Brock Purdy told the media this week that he was disappointed in losing the Super Bowl LVIII in 2024. The 49ers lost to the Kansas Chiefs. “I would say I was frustrated about losing the Super Bowl, and it was like, ‘All right, we got to get back,’ ” Purdy told SI “That’s all I saw, was getting back. And because some of those guys are out, I have to go make plays to get us back.

San Francisco 49ers podcast David Zizmor:

#1 David, some critics have said that 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy have said that Purdy is not worth of the $265 million five year deal he signed. That Purdy did not perform at a NFL top level. What is your take on such criticism.

#2 Purdy’s deal puts him in a tie for seventh highest paid player in the NFL and ties him with quarterback Jered Goff. Goff has a salary of $53 million per year. In 2023 Purdy set a single season record for passing yards at 4280 and threw for 31 touchdowns. Purdy’s numbers fell in 2024 passing at 3864, 20 touchdowns, and the 49ers finished 6-11.

#3 Critics continued to say that Purdy failed to elevate the 49ers and didn’t rise to the occasion in facing adversity and didn’t have the traits to live up to the leagues tip quarterbacks with some of the top contracts in the NFL.
