Preseason 2017: Chiefs vs 49ers

Good list. I'll go:
1. Reuben Foster. Can he show the same instincts from college and training camp.
2. Trent Brown in the run game. Can he execute a reach block or do the 49ers have to run pin and pull.
3. Solly Thomas. He hasn't had much practice time due to school commitments. Just don't get overwhelmed by NFL OLinemen. Don't get washed out or pancaked.
4. AA as Leo/Elephant. Can he apply some pressure in the passing game against left tackles.
5. CJ Beathard. Show poise in the pocket. Not expecting fast decisions as he adjusts to NFL speed, but when he does throw, show some accuracy.

I wish we can see the WR and DB play, particularly Lorenzo James (or whoever the FS is). Too bad they won't be viewable on TV.

The top 5 guys I am most excited/interested in seeing today

1. CB Ahkello Witherspoon - How will he look in coverage? Would also love to see a few runs go his way and how he reacts to them.
2. QB CJ Beathard - We have heard good things in camp, how will he look playing against KC's 2's and 3's? Will be interested to see how he handles pressure, accuracy, ability to call plays etc.
3. RB Joe Williams - Haven't heard too much from him in camp, would love to see him break a few runs and perhaps begin to solidify his spot as #2 RB.
4. DE Solomon Thomas - I wouldn't be surprised if he plays somewhat significant minutes to make up for missed time due to Stanford's school schedule.
5. LEO Arik Armstead - May not play many minutes being just Game 1 of Pre-Season but still. Would love to see how he looks out there for a few series.

It was difficult to do just a top 5 as there are a number of other guys I am excited to see play

Cool list Thl. Had i had a few more minutes it would have been mine exactly. Those ARE the top 5, but we need a 5a to include the DBs...our mystery unit. Do they look like chickens running around with their heads cut off ...or do they look professional. I'm worried about that one. Ok,, so i got 6 not five.

I'm still confused. Are they just picking the game up at 7pm live or re-airing it from the beginning? Either way, it re-airs in full the next mobbing at 11:30.

I think they're picking it up in progress.

That's what I thought. Thanks!

There is no set time for the second game even tho they say it's Live at 10pm ET.

NFL Network has two lives games tonight.
Steelers @ Giants Live at 7pm
49ers @ KC Live at 10 pm

So whenever the first game gets over they will start showing the next.

It says 9 though?

Not viewable.. I thought the 408 in your handle was due to living locally.
