Jimmy Garoppolo spoke with reporters on Thursday as his San Francisco 49ers get set for a huge Monday night game against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 10. One subject that came up was Garoppolo’s postgame interview with FOX reporter Erin Andrews after the team’s win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9.
Garoppolo was pumped up after the win over Arizona, in which he passed for a career-high four touchdowns. Asked by Andrews how it feels to be 8-0, he said it “feels great, baby.”
Many observers online thought there was some flirting going on between the 49ers quarterback and FOX reporter, but the Niners QB said that his comments were the product of him being excited.

That’s exactly how it seemed. He was confident, happy and pumped up. Why wouldn’t he be after a game like that?
The 49ers will have one of their toughest tests of the season when they host Seattle on Monday. Maybe Jimmy G is feeling like 9-0, baby.
