Richard Sherman and Mitchell preview the NFL Week 5 showdown between the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks, breaking down Brock Purdy, Sam Darnold, and the key matchups in the Sherman Bowl. Richard explains why he’s picking San Francisco to leave Lumen Field with a 24-21 win.
They also debate whether Justin Herbert or the Chargers’ coaching deserves more blame for Los Angeles’ struggles, discuss Richard’s bold proposal for the Eagles to trade for Marvin Harrison Jr., and react to Trey McBride’s viral confrontation with an NFL referee.
Plus, Richard revisits his take on Travis Hunter’s future at cornerback and reveals his latest NFL power rankings alongside Mitchell. The 49ers, Chiefs, Seahawks, Jaguars, and Bears make their top fives—but the Bills and undefeated Vikings remain on the outside looking in.
