PURDY OFF THE FAKE, VERY CALM IN THAT POCKET, HE'S ABLE TO FIND BRAYDEN WILLIS, ENOUGH FOR A FIRST DOWN. FOR THE SEASON AND THEY'RE LOADED IN THE SECONDARY, NAMELY KOOL-AID McKINSTRY. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE'VE SEEN MOREAU WAS A LITTLE EAGER TO GO ON THAT ONE, MOVED THEM BACK FIVE YARDS. >> >> Adam: CASSUM HILL, GOT THE PENALTY YARDAGE BACK. THEY'RE PUTTING HIM OUT. EXPECT SOME QUICK GAIN OR SOMEHOW GET RID OF THE FOOTBALL FAST FOR PURDY. >> Adam: NOTHING DOWNFIELD, NOW HE HAS TO ROLL OUT TO THE RIGHT AGAIN AND AS HE RUNS OUT OF TIME HE'LL STEP OUT OF BOUNDS. >> Mark: BROCK MOTIONING TO WILLIS, TRYING TO REMIND HIM THEY'LL START THIS DRIVE FROM THE 6.

LIKE THAT WINDOW IS CLOSING. IT WILL BE SCHRADER AGAIN RUNNING BACKWARD, RUNNING AWAY FROM CHASE YOUNG WHO FORCES A LOSS. A LOSS OF A COUPLE. HIM. >> Adam: ONE YEAR DEAL WITH THE 49ers. PURDY, THE QUICK TOSS, HE'S ABLE TO CONNECT WITH HIS TIGHT END. A FIVE-YARD GAIN. ANGLE IS COMING OUT OF THAT ROUTE, YOU'RE BASICALLY DEAD TO THE QUARTERBACK. >> Adam: WILL HARRIS WAS THE NEW ADDITION COMING OVER FROM DETROIT. ANOTHER PERFECTLY PLACED, 35 YARDS RIGHT WHERE IT NEEDED TO BE. HARVIN LOOKING FOR A SPOT BEHIND I.R. TO START THE YEAR. LONG FIELD FOR DEREK CARR. DUMP IT OUT TO THE PLAT FOR HIS TIGHT END IN FOSTER MOREAU, FIELD POSITION. >> Adam: SECOND DOWN AND THREE. HANDOFF FOR JAMAAL WILLIAMS TRYING TO BREAK THROUGH FOR THE FIRST DOWN AND PLENTY MORE, GOOD BLOCKING BY TAYSOM HILL WHO LINED UP THAT TIME BY THE FULLBACK. 49ers, HUGE, HUGE PLAY TO FLIP FIELD POSITION. >> Adam: DEEP DROP FOR CARR LOOKING DOWN FIELD AND HE CONNECTS IN SAN FRANCISCO TERRITORY, IT'S OLAVE IN FRONT OF RENARDO GREEN.

THAT'S A HECK OF AN OPENER, COWBOYS AT BROWNS. >> Adam: CODY SCHRADER WILL GET AN OPPORTUNITY AGAINTR TO BREAK THROUGH THAT LONG LINE OF KICKOFF COVERAGE, JOHNATHAN CLEVELAND, GOT TIEDED TO MINNESOTA WHEN KIRK COUSINS GOT HURT. HIS FIRST PASS OF THE DAY IS GRABBED BY JACOB COWLING. THE ROOKIE OUT OF ARIZONA. >> Mark: THESE ARE BUILT FOR ANYTHING. >> Adam: PENALTY WAS ON COWLING EARLIER ON THIS DRIVE, HE GOT THE SCREEN, DOBBS THREW THE BLOCK, EVENTUALLY WRIGHT FINISHES IT OFF. CHASE YOUNG'S BEEN CAUSING SOME ONE QUARTER LATER, THE CHIEFS SURPASSED IT WITH A 57 YARDER. MOODY OVERALL A VERY STRONG CAMPAIGN LAST SEASON. AND SURE ENOUGH, HE GETS SAN FRANCISCO ON THE BOARD WITH THREE RIGHT THERE. SECOND-YEAR MAN OUT OF MICHIGAN. WITH THIS NEW KICKOFF, HANG TIME IS IRRELEVANT BECAUSE THE PLAYERS ON OFFENSE AND DEFENSE ARE STARTING SO CLOSE TOGETHER. >> Adam: THEY CAN'T MOVE UNTIL THE BALL IS EITHER ON THE GROUND OR CAUGHT. AND THERE IT IS. MIMS WITH SOME WEAVING AS HE TAKES IT OUT NEAR THE 30-YARD LINE ON A SOLID RETURN 28. THE SAINTS BACK ON OFFENSE. FLYING. THIS GUY KNOWS WHAT TO DO, UNDERSTANDS THE GAME, THINKS THE GAME, AND YOU WILL SEE IT IN HIS PLAY. >> Adam: TRYING TO CLIMB THAT POCKET, WHICH IS COLLAPSING, AND IT'S FINISHED OFF. T.Y. MWAS IN ON IT. THEY'RE GOING TO SAY THAT BALL CAME OUT. AND, INDEED, BARRETT HELPS GET THE TAKE-AWAY FOR SAN FRANCISCO. >> Referee: FIRST DOWN SAN FEARLESS RUNNER. >> Adam: 5'9", 215 POUND ROOKIE. DOBBS THROWS RIGHT. IT IS CAUGHT. THAT BALL IS OUT. RONNIE BELL HAD A DROP LAST WEEK. THIS WILL BE RULED INCOMPLETE. AGAIN, WE'RE NOT SHOWING MUCH. WE'RE RUNNING BASIC PLAYS AND THAT KIND OF STUFF. BUT IT WAS FUN TODAY. >> Kristina: DEREK, YOU ARE GOING INTO YOUR 11th YEAR. YOU HAVE A FIRST YEAR AND A SECOND-YEAR GUY WHO ARE COMPETING TO BE NUMBER TWO. WHEN DID YOU KNOW YOU WERE THE FIRST FEW YEARS OF HIS CAREER WAS WITH SAN FRANCISCO. HE'S BEEN WITH THE BENGALS AND BEARS THE LAST THREE YEARS. DOBBS OUT ROUTE. AND HE HAD ORJI IN ON THE WE'RE TALKING FIRST DAY OF TRAINING CAMP, THESE GUYS DO 40 UP/DOWNS. THAT'S YOUR BUY-IN. >> Adam: BACK-TO-BACK FIELD GOAL DRIVES FOR SAN FRANCISCO, AND THEY'RE BACK WITHIN ONE. THIS NEW ORLEANS DEFENSE TOP TEN THESE GUYS, AND THEY HAVE BEEN HIT SO HARD BY THE INJURY BUG. THE VOLUME OF INJURIES HAS REALLY HURT THIS TEAM. >> Adam: ESPECIALLY ON THE OFFENSIVE LINE. DOBBS WAS ABLE TO DELIVER TO THE FORMER 49ER. THE VETERAN IS BACK WITH THE CLUB, AND HE PICKS UP A 20 YARD WIDE. STARTED HIS CAREER AS AN UNDRAFTED FREE AGENT WITH THE 49ERS SEVEN YEARS AGO. DOBBS ESCAPES THE PRESSURE, TRYING TO KEEP THE PLAY GOING. STILL ON HIS FEET. ALL THE WAY TO THE FAR SIDE OF THE FIELD, AND HE'S ABLE TO PICK UP THE FIRST DOWN AND STOP THE CLOCK AS HE STEPPED OUT IN NEW ORLEANS TERRITORY. THERE. HE WAS A TRACK STAR IN HIGH SCHOOL, WAS ABLE TO STAY STEP FOR STEP WITH GRAY. 3rd AND 10. DOBBS THE PUMP, DOBBS THE THROW. SEPARATION OUTSIDE. IT'S CAUGHT! JACOB COWLING RIGHT ON CUE! FIRST AND GOAL SAN FRANCISCO. BREIDA EMPTIES IT OUT. >> Mark: GET SOME CROSSING ROUTES GOING. >> Adam: DOBBS LOOKING, THROWING FOR TAYLOR, AND IT'S OFF HIS HANDS, INCOMPLETE. RICO PAYTON ALMOST CAME UP WITH A PICK AS WELL. JUST A QUICK THROW, FIVE SECONDS, AND THEY WILL STILL BE SHARP IN THESE SITUATIONS. THIS IS WHERE YOU GET PAID. THIS IS WHERE YOU WIN GAMES. >> Adam: DOBBS, CAN HE STAY ON HIS FEET? AND SUMMERSALTS HOME FOR THE FIGURE OUT WHO IS THEIR SWING OFFENSIVE TACKLE. A LOT OF QUESTIONS STILL TO ANSWER. >> Adam: BLAKE STRUGGLED A BIT AS OF LATE IN PRESEASON PRACTICES. BUT THAT ONE FROM 52 WAS ACES TO GET THE SAINTS BACK WITHIN THREE. >> Mark: HE SAID WE DON'T KNOW ANYTHING YET. >> Adam: WAIT UNTIL WEEK FIVE WHEN THESE SPECIAL TEAMS COACHES GET COMFORTABLE. ON THE END-AROUND. HOW ABOUT THE SPEED? THIS IS WHAT HE BRINGS. HE'S ONE OF THE FASTEST GUYS ON THIS 49ER ROSTER. BEEN DEALING WITH A HAMSTRING ISSUE THAT SLOWED HIM DOWN. AGAINST BROTHER GOING AGAINST EACH OTHER. GARY KUBIAK, WHO I HAD THE PLEASURE OF BEING WITH IN DENVER IS AWFULLY PROUD OF THOSE GUYS. >> Adam: MATT BREIDA GETS THE FIRST DOWN AS THEY'RE ABLE TO SLIP AWAY FROM THE ROOKIE OR ORIGINALLY A JAGUAR PICK. PLAYED WITH THE RAMS, THE BRONCOS IN CINCINNATI AND NOW SAN FRANCISCO THIS YEAR AGAIN. OH, HE PUNTS AWAY FROM THE DEFENDER AND THROWS ON THE MOVE TO KEYSHON VAUGHN AS TJ RALLIED TO THE FOOTBALL. PAYTON TURNER LOOKED LIKE HE HAD ALLEN DEAD TO RIGHTS. >> Adam: IT IS A SMART PLAY. OFTENTIMES THE BALL IS IN HARM'S WAY. HE DID A NICE JOB GETTING THAT BALL OUT OF THE BPATH OF TURNER. PERFECT BOUNCE. >> Mark: AGAIN! >> Adam: 46 YARD PERFECTLY PLACED PUNT. >> Mark: I WANT TO PLAY WITH HIM. I LIKE THAT. THIS GUY IS READY TO GO. AND I LOVE HIS PRODUCTION, POTENTIALLY WITH GRANDERSON AND CAM JORDAN. THAT'S A NASTY TRIO. >> Adam: SPENCER RATTLER UNDER PRESSURE. HE GETS WRAPPED UP BY JAYLEN HISTORY IN SEAN PAYTON, NOW BACK OUT THERE IN DENVER. TRYING TO SELL THAT FAKE. HAS TO ESCAPE THE POCKET. NICE MANEUVERING BY TANNER MORDECAI. SECOND AND NINE. >> Mark: SEE THAT LITTLE BURST >> Mark: PERFECTLY TIMED. THAT ONE OUT OF THE GUN IS A FIVE STEP PLANT FROM UNDER STENTER. >> Adam: AND THEY HURRIED UP. JUST GOT THE SNAP OFF IN TIME. MORDECAI PASSED THE STICKS AND A JUGGLE AND CATCH BY DANNY GRAY FOR A FIRST DOWN AND THE 32. >> Mark: WOW. GOOD, BAD OR INDIFFERENT. >> Adam: THE BACKUP OFFENSIVE LINEMAN THERE. FOUR MAN RUSH. MORDECAI HAS TO HURRY IT UP, AND IT'S NEARLY TAKEN AWAY. MISSED HIS LAST DRIVE FROM 50 PLUS. THIS WILL MAKE IT A SIX-POINT LEAD. AND IT IS INDEED THREE POINTS. SET UP FOR A NICE ENTERTAINING ABOUT ALL CAMP. LET'S LET THAT SHOW TODAY. WE MIGHT GET AN INTERCEPTION HERE. LET'S SEE. >> Adam: STATUS INCOMPLETION. >> I'M REALLY PROUD OF HOW THEY'RE PLAYING RIGHT HERE. THAT GROUP? >> OBVIOUSLY DRE WILL BE MISSED. HE'LL BE BACK BETTER THAN EVER WHEN HE DOES GET BACK. I'M EXCITED ABOUT THE YOUNG GUYS AND GUYS WE ADDED TO OUR TEAM THIS SEASON. I THINK WE WILL COME IN WAVES, MAN. IT WILL BE A GROUP EFFORT. KNOW, ROTATING LEFT TO RIGHT. SO HE'S LOOKING GOOD. AND HE'S ON TRACK, DOING EXACTLY WHAT HE NEEDS TO DO. HE'S BEEN AMAZING. >> Kristina: THANKS SO MUCH. APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. MARK? PLAY WITH HERE. AND IT LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GETTING MAN-TO-MAN ACROSS THE BOARD. LOOK AT THESE MATCHUPS RIGHT HERE. THIS IS ONE-ON-ONE. SOMEBODY HAS TO WIN. >> Adam: HAENER WILL LOOK LEFT. STICK ROUTE CAUGHT BY AUSTIN ON A TOUGH SNARE. >> Mark: SEEMS LIKE THE SAME STORY ACROSS THE LEAGUE. BUT THIS DIVISION IS UP FOR GRABS. >> Adam: HAENER THROWS ONE UP FOR GRABS. END ZONE SHOT FOR PERRY, AND IT'S INCOMPLETE. >> Mark: LISTEN, I LOVED THE WAY THE QUARTERBACKS PLAYED, PROTECTING THE FOOTBALL. THAT'S HUGE FOR THESE GUYS BATTLING FOR THAT NUMBER TWO SPOT, WHETHER IT IS BRANDON ALLEN OVER WITH DOBBS IN SAN FRANCISCO OR JAKE HAENER AND
