| 0:09.0 | Rico we started the show with yours |
| 0:11.0 | I want to do that right here then I'll give you mind and then we go to the people and I know in between it's hard for us to take calls on a Friday with so many different segments to do and t.J joins us if you miss t.J. Audecy com rewind that's there for you oh also some of the digital |

| 0:53.6 | podcasts RICO Beard biggest point of confidence and concern my biggest point of |
| 0:58.0 | confidence concern for me is you know people know I'm a Niners fan so the |
| 1:01.8 | confidence is the lion's secondary the fact that you've |
| 1:04.7 | given up plus 150 hours to a bunch of receivers for the last five weeks the 49ers |
| 1:11.6 | are going to go after sudden they're going to go after the secondary, and I think especially if you're blitzing, they're going to try to find that one-on-one guy. |
