Surely AJ and I weren't the only ones who had a lot of thoughts following a crushing defeat last week on Sunday Night Football against the Giants so it should be no surprise that most of the podcast this week covers topics related to that game. Topics this week are:
What went wrong against the Giants?
What went right?
Jordan Devey vs Andrew Tiller.
Bright spots for the 49ers five games into the season.
Plus, are AJ & I again picking the 49ers to lose? The answer may or may not shock you.
On another note, picking based on the spread? Not an easy task. After an admirable debut (AJ 12-3, Diego 10-5) two weeks ago both of us crashed badly last week going 5-9. Win some, lose some. That isn't stopping us for giving you our picks for all the games in Week 6 of the NFL and yes, there are some spread-beater suggestions in there.
Shoutouts to Fropwns, Lucky Phil, and RishikeshA for their comments last week (Phil I brought the bullet points back per your suggestion). We'll continue to look forward to all of your comments/questions/suggestions on here.

49ers LB Fred Warner says his goals remain set to the 'highest standard'
By David Bonilla

Fred Warner was overwhelmed by over 200 text messages and calls from friends and colleagues on Wednesday when news broke that the San Francisco 49ers were signing him to a massive five-year extension, making him the highest-paid linebacker in the NFL. The newfound riches won't change his attitude, though. Instead, Warner will continue working to earn the respect of his peers and do whatever he can to contribute to the team goal of winning a championship.
"My goals and aspirations are always going to be set to the highest standard, higher than anybody else can put on me," Warner told reporters on Thursday. "And that holds true to the season, even before this contract was set and done. My (personal) goals and my goals for this team, they don't change. So that's what's exciting,

"They were in the Super Bowl just like five minutes ago and they had a whole bunch of injuries, but they get all those players back."
Looking at the offensive side of the ball, Frelund highlighted star tight end George Kittle, who, according to Next Gen Stats, has averaged 8.0 yards after the catch per reception since 2018, which is the highest in the NFL given a minimum of 25 receptions.
In addition to Kittle,
