Mark Schlereth, NFL broadcaster with Fox Sports and host “Schlereth and Evans” alongside Mike Evans on Denver’s 104.3 FM The Fan, joined Cattles & Ramie on Tuesday to discuss the San Francisco 49ers playoffs aspirations, the many coaching openings and more.

topics discussed include

  • The Damar Hamlin situation and how it was handled by the NFL. “The whole situation was frightening and it was scary to watch it play out but obviously it turned out for the best.”
  • Why Damar’s situation was extreme and needed flexibility by teams in the playoffs
  • The San Francisco 49ers are Mark’s favorites in the NFC to make it to the Super Bowl
  • “If Dak Prescott has a sub-par game, the Cowboys don’t win. If Jalen Hurts has a sup-par game or can’t play, they don’t win. If Tom Brady doesn’t play outstanding football, Tampa Bay doesn’t win.”
  • How the 49ers are built differently than current teams
  • Why there’s no clear-cut favorite to come out of the AFC
  • Is Jim Harbaugh the next coach of the Denver Broncos?
