#1 With Brock Purdy back under center for the San Francisco 49ers he didn’t miss a step when he came back in his win over the Arizona Cardinals. He’s back last week from his turf toe injury and will face the Carolina Panthers on Monday Night Football. How confident are the 49ers that Purdy can stay consistent and he’s ready to carry this team to the post season?

#2 The Las Vegas Raiders (2-9) never could catch up to the Cleveland Browns (3-8) Sunday getting beat 24-10 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The Raiders quarterback Geno Smith just couldn’t get neither the run or passing game to get on the scoreboard. For Smith Sunday going 30-44 for 285 yards and one interception. The Raiders were shutout in the first and third quarters. The Raiders defense were having a decent game they shutout the Browns in the first and third quarters but it wasn’t enough to close the game out in a 14 point loss at home.

#3 The Texas Department of Public Safety released on Friday details of how former defensive end of the Dallas Cowboys Marshawn Kneeland detail from police body camera, dash camera, and drone videos after officer had found Kneeland dead from a self inflicted gunshot wound in early November.

Kneeland’s body was found in a portable toilet outhouse between two office buildings in Frisco Texas.

#4 The San Francisco 49ers had voided wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk’s contract worth $27 million for the 2026 season. The question had been about Aiyuk’s future with the 49ers and was he who wanted to void the contract so he can become a free agent in 2026 or was it the 49ers idea to part company with him. “I’ve been coaching over 20 years, and I’ve never been in a situation where a contract’s been voided,” Shanahan said. “It’s extremely unusual to me.”

#5 Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow did not play on Sunday against the New England Patriots the Patriots announced on Saturday. Burrow is suffering from turf toe and has not played since week two. Burrow did practice on Wednesday and Thursday. The Bengals had a game on Sunday and also on Thanksgiving day. While it’s reported that Burrow is close to returning when according to the Bengals is the real question.

On the Las Vegas Raiders podcast with Rich Perez:

#1 Rich how important is this bye week after the Raiders have lost five straight games.

#3 There was the previous home game that the Raiders were crushed by the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sun Oct 13 at Allegiant Stadium 32-13. Steelers quarterback Justin Fields was 14-24 for 145 yards. Fields didn’t throw or rush for a touchdown but the Steelers certainly got a lot of offense in that game.

#4 Speaking of offense in the Raiders last game Sun Nov 3 against the Cincinnati Bengals in Cincinnati the Bengals put up some big numbers with quarterback Joe Burrow under center throwing 27-39 for 251 yards and here’s where it hurt the Raiders five touchdowns by Burrow either by passing or rushing in the 41-24 win.

#5 Charlie let me read to you a list of Raiders minority owner Tom Brady’s restrictions. #1 Not permitted to be in another team’s facility.#2 Can not attend another team’s practice. #3 Can not attend in-person or virtual broadcast production meetings with coaches or players. #4 Can not publicly criticize officials and other clubs. #5 Must follow the NFL’s gambling policy. Are these rules in place because he’s a co-owner of the Raiders and since he’s part of the management of the club these restrictions are put upon him to avoid a conflict of interest?

#4 The Chiefs later would put the game out of reach with 4:59 left in the game when quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw a nine yard pass to wide out Xavier Worthy for a touchdown making it 27-13.
