On Headline Sports podcast with Charlie O:

#1 Charlie, the San Francisco 49ers pass rusher Nick Bosa is still waiting to hear from the NFL whether he would be fined or not by the league for appearing in a live TV shot post game while teammate and quarterback Brock Purdy was being interviewed with teammates tight end George Kittle and running back Isaac Guerendo were standing with sideline reporter Malissa Stark. Bosa in the shot was pointing to his MAGA that was white with gold lettering.

#2 The Las Vegas Raiders are trying to recover after last week’s loss to the Kansas City Chiefs at Allegiant Stadium. The Raiders took a seven point loss 27-20 after the Chiefs picked up some insurance points in the fourth quarter with a field goal and a touchdown after leading the Raiders by just four points 17-13. The Raiders now face the Cincinnati Bengals today the Bengals have won three of their last four games and are banking on quarterback Joe Burrow to deliver last week in the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles Burrow was 26-37 for 234 yards, one touchdown and was intercepted once. Charlie how do you see this match up?

#3 Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stafanski said that quarterback Deshaun Watson is back at the Browns facility after suffering a season ending Achilles injury where Watson had surgery performed after a week 7 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Stafanski said that Watson is rehabbing after a tough surgery and that’s he’s scooting around the building and that Watson plans to attack the rehab.

#4 The New York Jets wide receiver Devante Adams was excited to join his new team and get things started on last Thursday Night Football’s game against the Houston Texans in a 21-13 win. Adams ended up catching a 37 yard pass from quarterback Aaron Rogers for a touchdown his first as a Jet.

#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?

Headline Sports podcast with Charlie O: Universities boycott SJSU’s Volleyball games with transgender on Spartans roster; Cal gets some love on Game Day from ESPN; plus more news

San Jose State Spartans outside right side hitter Blaire Fleming (3) has been the focus of being a transgender playing on a women’s volleyball team. Three universities have boycotted against playing SJSU and did not disclose the reasons why. (SJSU photo)

On Headline Sports podcast with Charlie O:

#1 San Jose State Spartans volleyball has been in the spotlight over transgender outside right side hitter Blaire Fleming. Three universities have boycotted playing SJSU, Southern Utah, Boise State, Wyoming. The three universities did not disclose a reason for boycotting the games against SJSU. Fleming teammate Brooke Slusser has joined a lawsuit against the NCAA regarding safety issues after finding out that Fleming was transgender. How much of a conundrum is this going to cause the NCAA with teams boycotting and players filing lawsuits.

#2 Charlie, it was a special day for Cal football on Saturday as they hosted the Miami Hurricane. It was the first time in the school’s history that they host ESPN Game Day. The event went down as a big deal as Cal made the national scene. Cal had gone 3-1 previous to their game with Miami and got some love from the World Wide Sports Leader.

#3 Vice President Kamala Harris on her podcast “All is Smoke” expressed sadness about Oakland losing all it’s professional sports teams which included Golden State Warriors, Oakland Raiders and Oakland A’s. Harris was joined by former Warriors Harrison Barnes and Stephen Jackson on the podcast. Harris said “it breaks my heart.” The vice president said she feels sadness each time she passes the Oakland Coliseum when she flies in and out of Oakland Airport.

#4 It was mentioned on a local talk show that it’s 98% certain that the A’s will end up at Sutter Health Field but it’s the uncertain 2% that you have to look out for. The San Francisco Chronicle reported that A’s president David Forst said “I don’t think we have a 100% certainty.” even though renovations have been made in the dugouts the artificial turf has not been installed at all. The players of other teams behind the scenes have told their agents they do not want to play on artificial turf and using a minor league park would not be practical for big league players. According to A’s manager Mark Kotsay, “no decision (to go) from grass to turf has been made.” Charlie you were there on the last game in Oakland I know you said it’s a done deal in Sacramento but there is doubt about Sutter Health and the players really are leaning on finishing up at the Coliseum before moving to Vegas.

#5 The Arizona Cardinals (1-3) kick off against the San Francisco 49ers (2-2) at Levi Stadium. The Cardinals are a struggling bunch they had their heads handed to them by the Washington Commanders last week. Cardinal quarterback Kyler Murray was 16-22 for 142 yards, and one touchdown. The 49ers after losing two straight games defeated the New England Patriots last Sunday 30-13 and ran up the score on the Pats. Will the 49ers make easy work of the Cardinal today?

#6 The Las Vegas Raiders just got by the Cleveland Browns last week 20-16. After holding a 20-10 win the Raiders in the fourth quarter couldn’t get any offense going and the Browns returned a fumble for a touchdown but it wasn’t enough as Las Vegas came away with a four point win at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

Headline Sports podcast with Jessica Kwong: Goff, Lions are the real deal; Bills Von Miller felony assault no charges have been assessed; plus more NFL news

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff throws football into the stands after carrying for a touchdown against the Seattle Seahawks in the second half at Ford Field in Detroit on Tue Oct 1, 2024 (AP News photo)

On Headline Sports podcast with Jessica Kwong:

#1 Former Cal quarterback and Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff threw a perfect game against the Seattle Seahawks last Sunday when he went 18-18 without throwing a incomplete pass, in a 42-29 win. Goff had such a great afternoon he threw for two touchdowns and caught a touchdown pass.

#2 Buffalo Bills linebacker Von Miller has been suspended for four games without pay for violating the league’s personal conduct policy for third degree felony assault for assaulting a pregnant woman on Nov 30, 2023. Miller could face two to ten years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Miller has posted a $5,000 bond. Miller and the woman have been together for seven years. No charges have been filed against Miller. Miller said the case is closed from information received from Miller’s legal representatives.

#3 There is dissension amongst the Las Vegas Raiders head coach Pierce and wide receiver Devante Adams. Adams wants out of Las Vegas and coach Antonio Pierce had liked a social media post that talked about a possible trade with Adams. This should make for a dysfunctional group that could fracture the players if things don’t take hold internally at the Raiders as they head to Denver to play the Broncos this Sunday.

#4 Jessica lets take a look at a couple NFL games from this last Sunday. The Raiders were able to squeeze by the Cleveland Browns after holding a 20-10 lead the Browns in the fourth quarter were able to score six but ended up losing to the Raiders 20-16. The Raiders were able to score in the second and third quarters to hold on for the win.

#5 The San Francisco 49ers after losing two straight games came back last Sunday and defeated the New England Patriots. The 49ers kept the Patriots offense to a low roar the Pats scored only one touchdown and the 49ers scored two touchdowns in the second quarter. The 49ers ended up beating the Patriots 30-13 at Levi Stadium in Santa Clara.

On the Las Vegas Raiders podcast with Tony Renteria:

#1 Tony, the Cleveland Browns opened up the first quarter against the Las Vegas Raiders Deshaun Watson for one yard pass to Blake Whiteheart. The Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins later hit a 56 yard field goal and it was 10-0.

#2 Raiders would answer back with when running back Tre Tucker would carry a three yarder for a touchdown and Daniel Carlson later would boot a 52 yarder to tie it up at half time 10-10.

#3 The Raiders would add on more scoring in the third quarter when Carlson kicked a 34 yarder for a field goal and DJ Turner carried for 18 yards putting the Raiders on top by ten 20-10.

#4 Fourth quarter the Raiders were able to hold off the Browns. The Browns recovered a Raiders fumble as the Browns Rodney McCleod ran it back 25 yards to cut the Raiders lead 20-16 as kicker Dustin Hopkins missed the extra point.

#5 Up next for the Raiders the Denver Broncos who just got by the New York Jets at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands Sunday 10-9 in a well played defensive game. Broncos quarterback Bo Nix threw 12 for 25 for 60 yards and one touchdown in the Denver win. This one will be in Denver next Sun Oct 6th. Your thoughts for these two teams.

On the NFL Post Season podcast with David Zizmor :

#1 David, let’s go over each playoff game coming up this weekend starting with this Sat Jan 13th and we’ll start with the Cleveland Browns and Houston Texans. The Browns finished 11-6 on the season and the Texans finished at 10-7. The Texans have the homefield advantage how do you see this game’s outcome and what your predicted score?

#2 The Miami Dolphins (11-6) goes up against the Kansas City Chiefs (11-6) this one at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City do you see this as an evenly matched contest or the Chiefs who know their way around getting deep in the post season and have homefield might have the edge?

#3 On Sun Jan 14th the AFC game is the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Buffalo Bills. The Steelers are 10-7 and the Bills are 11-6. The Bills have the homefield and face the Steel Curtain. Tony do you see this one?

San Francisco 49ers podcast with Joe Hawkes: 49ers Williams, McCaffrey and Samuel should be in line up for MNF

On the 49ers podcast with J Hawkes:

#1 Joe the big question is should the 49ers rest Trent Williams, Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel against the Minnesota Vikings this Monday? The 49ers did say Williams, McCaffrey and Samuel are not seriously injured and could play this Monday Night Football, how do you see that being a big risk.

#2 Critics have said that the Vikings who are 2-4 are just one more loss away from stripping the team down and being sellers. Are the Vikings in that much trouble?

#3 Williams, McCaffrey and Samuel are considered to be the 49ers best players and it would make sense if this were a playoff game but against the Vikings all three could use the week and game off.

#4 Joe, with the Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson out of action how much pressure does that put on quarterback Kirk Cousins to do most of the heavy lifting?

#5 Joe, any chance that this game could be as close as last week’s Cleveland Browns game was? Or do you see the 49ers plowing over the Vikings on Monday Night Football?

On the San Francisco 49ers podcast with David Zizmor:

#1 David, in the 49ers last game basically it was a matter of injuries, poor execution and spotty defense.

#2 Talk about how the 49ers injuries of Christian McCaffrey with an Oblique and rib and Deebo Samuel with a shoulder injury, Dre Greenlaw (hamstring), left tackle Trent Williams (low ankle sprain), and safety George Odum (quadriceps), how much did their injuries impact their game against the Cleveland Browns.

#3 Dave, take a look at the 49ers next game in Minnesota do you see them having the same struggles as they did in Cleveland against the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football Oct 23?

San Francisco 49ers podcast with Joe Hawkes: Browns Watson to sit out Sunday against 49ers

Cleveland Browns quarterback DeShaun Watson will sit out this Sun Oct 15, 2023 against the San Francisco 49ers in Cleveland for week 6. (AP file photo)

On the 49ers podcast with Joe Hawkes:

#1 San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy in his last game threw 17-24 for 252 yards, and four touchdowns there is little doubt that Purdy is on a roll and is one of the keys to why the 49ers are 5-0.

#2 Last game for tight end George Kittle who scored three touchdowns and was the key factor why the 49ers won the game against the Dallas Cowboys.

#3 Christian McCaffrey who had a multi touchdown game against the Arizona Cardinals and against the Cowboys he got one touchdown but the win was more important to McCaffrey.

#4 The 49ers got some great defense against the Cowboys and Dak Prescott and it shows when you hold them to only ten points in a lopsided game.

#5 49ers are in Cleveland on Sunday and the Browns once again will be without quarterback Deshaun Watson who is out with right rotator cuff contusion. Watson could miss multiple games and the Browns won’t play him until he’s pain free.

San Francisco 49ers podcast with David Zizmor: Purdy and Kittle were the highlights on Sunday Night Football

On the 49ers podcast with David Zizmor:

#1 San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy threw for an amazing four touchdowns. When you look at Purdy’s passing for scores and how the 49ers dominated the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football this was a game that was expected to be a lot closer than it was?

#2 The Niners are 5-0 and have beaten a team the Arizona Cardinals who defeated the Dallas Cowboys on Sep 24 and then the 49ers with their win on Sunday over the Cowboys, the 49ers just exceeded their expectations or was this what you expected against teams like the Cardinals and Cowboys?

#3 The 49ers travel to face the Cleveland Browns for a 10AM PT kick off in Cleveland. The Browns struggled in their last game against the against the Baltimore Ravens in a landslide loss 28-3. Browns quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson threw for 121 yards and was intercepted three times. Browns starter DeShaun Watson’s bruised shoulder is still bothering him and may have to sit out again for next Sunday against the 49ers.
