Richard Sherman and Mitchell react to the San Francisco 49ers’ dominant 27–7 win over the Los Angeles Rams in Australia. The 49ers answered major questions in Week 1. Fred Warner and Dre Greenlaw returned and changed San Francisco’s defense, while the secondary—including Renardo Green, Deommodore Lenoir, Jack Jones, Ji’Ayir Brown, and Siga—made life difficult for Matthew Stafford and the Rams’ loaded offense. Brock Purdy looked sharp, protected the football, used his legs when needed, and operated Kyle Shanahan’s offense confidently. Richard breaks down Purdy’s improved footwork, the offensive line's zero sacks, Mike Evans’ impact as a third-down weapon, Deebo Samuel’s return, and rookie RB Kaelon Black’s emergence behind Christian McCaffrey. Sherman explains why the Rams’ star-studded roster shouldn’t have been crowned before Week 1—and why travel, jet lag, scheme fit, and execution mattered in a lopsided Niners win.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
