Thursday on The Jason Ross Show, J-Ross talked with 49ers Insider from Comcast SportsNet Matt Maiocco about this weekend’s game against Minnesota. Matt says Alex Smith is no longer a game manager but now a game maestro.

Jason also talked with former NFL scout and current NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah about the 49ers 2-0 start and how the Raiders can turn things around.

Jason and Deuce hit the following on “Leading Off”:

1. Kurt Warner says Alex Smith is the no. 1 QB on his power rankings. What does Jason think?”

2. Bud Selig says league will not interfere if Melky wins the batting title. Is this the right move by the Commish?

3. Giants and Panthers tonight–who do you like?

4. Did Rosie jinx the A’s playoff chances by buying playoff tickets before they clinched a postseason berth?
