In Hour 1 of Willard & Dibs, Mark Willard and Dan Dibley discuss the idea of the San Francisco 49ers running back their roster for another season — mostly. They also discuss Louis Riddick's rant about abolishing the preseason due to injury concerns. Is there too much worry about injuries in the NFL? Willard argues that sports fans are getting too overprotective about injuries, especially since injuries will happen regardless. In Hour 2, Willard and Dibs react to Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh calling San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy "cool" following the two teams' joint practice on Tuesday. It's been quite the debate ever since. They also have their weekly chat with NFL Films senior producer Greg Cosell to recap the 49ers' preseason games, De'Zhaun Stribling's play, defensive players he highlighted and more! Toward the end of the segment, they discuss the Golden State Valkyries' matchup against the Minnesota Lynx tonight. In Hour 3, Willard and Dibs hear from Steve Smith on the 49ers receiving room. Smith claimed it was Kyle Shanahan's deepest receiving core since becoming head coach for San Francisco. They also discuss Terrion Arnold's situation, and what sports fans can tolerate regarding player conduct on their favorite teams. In Hour 4, Willard and Dibs react to the latest NBA trade involving Cleveland, Denver and the Clippers. Peyton Watson goes to Cleveland, Max Strus to Los Angeles and an unprotected 2031 Cavs first-rounder and 2032 Kings second-rounder go to the Nuggets. They recap how this affects the Warriors. They're also joined by Golden State Valkyries radio play-by-play announcer Kevin Danna to preview the Valkyries-Lynx game.
