SportsTalk w/ Deuce & Steve Geller featuring Bobby Hebert

In this final hour, Steve and Charlie hear from a WWL listener about how most of the offensive hiccups seem to hinge on this questionable O-line, if the Saints might need to go out and pick up a seasoned vet off the market somewhere, before having AP writer covering the 49ers, Josh Dubow, joins us to talk about some of the key players we might see on the opposing side come Sunday and if Brandon Aiyuk will stay in SF or move on before closing out the hour hearing from Dennis Allen on the last day of camp and Samson Nacua on his incredibly large and athletic family.

Josh Dubow, who covers the 49ers for the Associated Press, joins the gang to preview who from SF we might see start on Sunday, the running back depth on the 49ers as CMC and LA-native Elijiah Mitchell are both out for the game, who will be on their defensive front to test the Saints struggling O-line, and if Brandon Aiyuk might just end up staying in San Fransisco?

Steve and Charlie answer a serious question from a WWL listener about how the Saints' offensive production weighs on the success of this offensive line and if a veteran O-linemen signing might just be on the horizon.

This hour, Steve and Charlie take a look at the latest coming out of the MLB as Paul Skenes and the Pirates still try and vie for a playoff spot and if the Pelicans will be able to hang with the incredibly contested Western Conference this year before Oleh Kosel, credentialed NBA writer covering the Pelicans, drops in to discuss the elephant in the room at the center position for the Pelicans, and what we need to see from the team during the depths of their 82-game schedule for them to clear that play-in bar, and we dive deep into the latest on Brandon Aiyuk's contract talks in SF, Spencer Arrighetti making a splash in the MLB, and some notes on the Pelicans schedule.
