Super Bowl LIII is over, thankfully, but Charles Robinson and Terez Paylor's conversations from Super Bowl week in Atlanta are still coming.

Yahoo Sports' national NFL experts sit down first with San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan about losing quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo so early in the season, the Shanahan family coaching tree, and how the 49ers use technology to optimize the performance of their players (2:10).

Next, they're joined by Indianapolis Colts linebacker and defensive rookie of the year Darius Leonard for a conversation about transitioning from a small school to the NFL, getting defensive tips from Andrew Luck and getting schooled by Patrick Mahomes (12:20).

Lastly, they're joined by Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Ryan Shazier to discuss his ongoing recovery from a spinal injury in 2017 and his goal to return to playing in the NFL (23:35).
