SF 49ers podcast with David Zizmor:

#1 Dave, no doubt the 49ers want to get this deal done with wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk and from the sound of things on Tuesday the two sides might be closer to a deal. They put off the Pittsburgh Steelers trade that was on the table. The Niners and Aiyuk are trying to work the numbers but their getting closer.

#2 There is no doubt that the 49ers want to get this deal done and not let Aiyuk get away. The 49ers know that he’s had a great run with the team. The 49ers have made multiple offers to try to get him signed and he could have easily have taken other offers but it sound like he want to stay on a team that was in the Super Bowl last season.

#3 Dave, 49ers and Raiders match up for the last pre season game on Fri Sep 23 a 7:00pm kick off. 49ers at quarterback used Joshua Dobbs in their last game against the New Orleans Saints. Dobbs has started in the 49ers last two 49ers exhibition games and it’s most likely he’ll get the call on Friday night.

On the 49ers podcast with David:

#1 Reports have surfaced that San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk does have a deal in place with the Pittsburgh Steelers pending approval of the 49ers. The 49ers might be trying to work something out with Aiyuk as they consider him one of the main key players to help them get to the post season. As of Tuesday Aiyuk has not been dealt to the Steelers.

#2 George Kittle said that they miss Aiyuk in practice but his absence gives a lot of the younger guys a lot of reps that they wouldn’t get otherwise if Aiyuk had been in all the practices.

#3 The San Francisco 49ers opened their first pre season with a 17-13 loss to the Tennessee Titans last Saturday in Tennessee. 49ers quarterback Joshua Dobbs was 14-20, 146 yards, and one interception. Although Dobbs is not a top contender for the starting job head coach Kyle Shanahan definitely wanted to get an idea what Dobbs can do. Dobbs didn’t throw an interception.

Headline Sports podcast with Charlie O: Browns on their fourth quarterback Flacco to start against Rams; Is 49ers-Eagles match up of the season?; plus more news

On Headline Sports podcast with Charlie O:

#1 How frustrating does it have to get for the Cleveland Browns in terms of having the revolving door of quarterbacks. The Browns are now on their fourth quarterback with 38 year old Joe Flacco getting the start after quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson suffered a concussion last week. Robinson was ruled out on Friday. The Browns lost quarterbacks DeShaun Watson who is out with a shoulder injury and PJ Walker who started two games this season and will serve as Flacco’s back up Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams.

#2 Charlie, to the big game of the season the San Francisco 49ers and Philadelphia Eagles. How much is this game unfinished business for the 49ers and how badly does quarterback Brock Purdy want to get in win it and come out it in one piece?

#3 The Eagles have been leaning on their defense with linebackers stopping any quarterback keepers or opposing running backs. Will this be a factor for running back Christian McCaffrey whose had nothing but success in finding holes and getting yards.

#4 The Las Vegas Raiders badly want to get back in the win column after losing their last two games to the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs badly did some damage to Raiders defense last Sunday at Allegiant Stadium with a 14 point second quarter and a ten point fourth quarter for a 31-17 win. Simply put the defense just couldn’t stop quarterback Patrick Mahomes and head coach Andy Reid’s game plan down.

#5 The Raiders have a bye this Sunday and host the Minnesota Vikings Sun Dec 10th at Allegiant. Vikings lost to the Chicago Bears last Sunday in a squeaker 12-10 at US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. The Vikings have gone without their starter Kirk Cousins and have started Joshua Dobbs who went 22-32 for 185 yards one touchdown and what hurt Dobbs the most he was picked off four times. How do you see the Raiders and Vikings next Sunday in Vegas?
