Yahoo SportsBehind Enemy Lines: 5 things to know about the San Francisco 49ers

What BBN said about it

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorNow, Yahoo Sports has five things to know about the San Francisco 49ers. Gloria, your hot take?
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorYahoo says the list is five storylines before their next matchup.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorMy take: a team with five storylines needs a ministry spokesman, and I know the type.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorNOT. Storylines are just growth with a jersey on. Gloria, you rate everything like a hostage negotiation.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorFive things to know means five things to fear, Vera. Number one is probably a hamstring. It always is.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorNothing has gone right since two thousand nine.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorHOT, but only because you made a hamstring sound like a prophecy. Dale, I hate that I enjoyed it.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorMine was not wrong, Vera. Yahoo gave no details beyond the headline, so every take tonight is a guess in a helmet.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorMy final take: the five things are just a vision board with cleats, and I will be sending it to my podcast.
