Episode Overview

This episode dives into the fallout from the San Francisco 49ers’ “sloppy win,” featuring a tough game by quarterback Brock Purdy, and the bizarre on-field low blow that’s now being called “Package Gate.” Covino, Rich, and crew bring their usual blend of humor, sports insight, and fan chatter to break down what actually matters from the game, defend Purdy against overreactions, and debate the unwritten rules of manhood—on and off the field.

---

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Brock Purdy’s “Bad Night” and the Win (Sloppy Football, Overreactions)

• Rich’s Viewing Adventure: Rich went out with the family, successfully avoided game spoilers, and watched the Niners’ win the “fast” way (about 1hr 15min, skipping commercials) [06:14–07:08].
• Game Breakdown: Both hosts agree it wasn’t Purdy’s or the Niners' best night:
  • Sloppy play, but the Niners improved to 8–4.
  • Purdy’s stat line: 193 yards, 1 TD, 3 INTs [12:51].
  • Media and fans (“even our guy Colin Cowherd... ‘He’s a right-handed Tua.’”) are piling on him [10:05–11:33].
• Rich’s Defense (Context is Everything):
  • Reminds listeners that Purdy played last year through a pile of injuries and still earned his contract.
  • Most of Purdy’s interceptions were just slightly off throws, not the result of panic or bad reads [12:51–13:54].
  • “I think Brock Purdy had a bad night where he just. I don’t know, he was a little off with his throws, which to me is so much different than a quarterback that looks lost in the sauce. Brock Purdy was confident throwing dimes at times..." (Rich, 12:51)
  • Kyle Shanahan echoed this view after the game: “He was seeing it right. They were all really good decisions. Just missed the throw on ’em.” [18:37–18:51]
• Devil’s Advocacy: Steve and Danny G push back (“Are you nervous against the Browns’ D?”), but Rich remains confident: “They’re gonna annihilate the Browns.” [14:04]

---

2. Fan Reactions, Media “Hot Takes,” and 49ers’ Outlook

• Live Chat/Crowd Sourcing: Audience feedback ranges from “A win is a win” to “San Francisco is cooked,” with Rich dismissing the doomsayers and placing faith in Purdy and the Niners’ supporting cast (McCaffrey, Kittle, etc.) [15:21–16:07; 29:09–29:31].
• “Glass Half-Full” Mentality: The hosts agree that winning ugly is a sign of resilience—“If you can still pull a W on your worst day, that says a lot” (Steve, 21:11).
• The Analogy Section: Rich compares the Niners to “a hot girl with a big pimple”—even imperfect, they’re more desirable than most teams [22:21].
• Upcoming Challenge: Previewing next week’s tougher test against the Browns and the “drama” that follows a rough QB outing [14:23–17:15].

---

3. Package Gate: An On-Field Nut Punch and its Fallout

• Incident Recap:
  • After the game concluded, 49ers’ Jauan Jennings was restrained by teammates after being punched in the groin by Panthers’ Trevon Moehrig [31:54].
  • Cameras caught the entire sequence after some NFL “sleuthing” through tape [32:00–33:06].
• Reactions:
  • Kyle Shanahan: “Oh, yeah, the guy took a cheap shot and hit him in the balls. Real proud of Jauan for not losing his mind...”
  • Jauan Jennings: “Yeah, I was just responding to some childish behavior. That's all it was.” [34:19]
• Discussion Points:
  • Rich and Covino condemn the act as one of the “big three no-nos in life for a guy”—spitting, hitting in the nuts, talking about a man’s family [37:26–37:53].
  • Laughter over Rich’s “truth serum” question: Have you ever faked sympathy after a minor hit to get attention from your partner? (Rich: “Maybe I am a conniving creep.”)
  • The universal male experience—most men have had some kind of unintended hit, and it’s always unacceptable to intentionally cause it (unless you’re playing dumb for sympathy) [34:58–36:48].

---

4. 49ers’ Playoff Picture & The State of the NFC

• Playoff Outlook: Rich is bullish about the Niners’ chances, arguing they’re “playoff bound” and only the Rams are truly dominant this year, with the rest of the NFC fielding teams with glaring weaknesses [47:45].
• What Team Misses Out?: Teases a breakdown of the full NFC playoff race, promising a surprise about who might be left out [23:09; 48:59–49:00].

---

5. Memorable Quotes & Moments

• “Kyle Shanahan shares my sentiment. So if you don't believe me, listen to the head coach.” (Rich, 18:31)
• “If you can still pull a W on your worst day, that says a lot.” (Steve Covino, 21:11)
• “A hot girl with a big pimple on her nose, wearing an ugly shirt is still going to have every guy in the bar wanting her. Even on... her worst day, guys are still going to want her.” (Rich, 22:21)
• “These are the no-nos in life, no-no’s on the field. Yeah. Those are the line crosses. Every guy knows them.” (Rich & Steve, 37:47)
• “Maybe I am a conniving creep.” (Rich, admitting he’s faked a worse injury for sympathy, 35:59)
• “That's trash behavior. You're in the NFL. Like, that's really weird. Because that's man-to-man. Like, you know the damage you could do. That's so lame.” (Steve Covino, 37:04)
• “You know what people should be talking about? How Christian McCaffrey's as good as he's ever been. How George Kittle looks like he's back to full health...” (Rich, 29:31)

Tone & Vibe

• The show is quick-witted, down-to-earth, and heavy on relatable analogies and audience interaction.
• Rich is the impassioned, loyal Niners fan (but claims to be hard on his own team), while Covino plays both comedic foil and devil’s advocate.
• The whole crew freely makes fun of one another (and themselves) while also tackling sports debates seriously, but always with humor and energy.
• The segment on “Package Gate” is filled with banter about manhood, dumb male pride, and on-field etiquette—equal parts real sports breakdown and playground-style joking.

---

Summary for the Uninitiated

If you missed this Covino & Rich episode, here’s what you need to know:

• The Niners won a messy, unsatisfying game, and Brock Purdy looked average—but their fanbase (at least Rich) remains confident.
• National sports takes on Purdy (“right-handed Tua,” “product of the system,” “overpaid”) are seen as missing critical context.
• “Package Gate,” featuring a blatant groin shot, leads to a hilarious and earnest discussion of man rules on the field ("the big three" no-nos: spitting, nut shots, insulting family).
• The playoff picture is wide open, no team is dominant, and next week’s Niners-Browns matchup is suddenly far more interesting due to Purdy’s “off night.”
• Through it all, Covino & Rich keep things fun, fast, and relatable, blending sports with pop-culture and real-life analogies, making even low blows and ugly wins entertaining.

[Steve Covino]

And now you're talking about turkey tickles. But Sesame street helped raise all of us. And now it's our turn. Donate this holiday [e-mail] because the world needs sesame and sesame needs you. So again, I'm Steve Covino. Rich Davis. We got super producer Danny G. On the phones at 87799 on Fox. He's the guy with the smooth, buttery voice. We got Iowa Sam, who's itching for some turkey ass.

I want people to stick around for that. It's gonna be a lot of fun today.

[Rich Davis]

Well, before we talk about hitting people in the nuts, before we talk about Monday night football last night, before we talk about some NBA, I want to congratulate Gobble the turkey. Did you see Gobble got pardoned by President Trump?

[Steve Covino]

Gobble, I just want to tell you this very important. You are hereby unconditionally pardoned.

[Rich Davis]

Gobble.

[Steve Covino]

No, I did not know that. But I'm glad you brought it to my attention. I did, however, see that Trump is trying to push to get Rush Hour four made. We need more Jackie Chan. We need more Chris Tucker.

[Rich Davis]

It's a true story.

[Steve Covino]

And I also saw that he reached out to congratulate Shador Sanders. He actually tweeted this. Shador Sanders was great. Wins first game, first career start as a pro for Cleveland. Great jeans. I told you so. He said, you pulled it.

[Rich Davis]

I told you so.

[Steve Covino]

I told you so.

[Rich Davis]

So funny. But, hey, last night, a great night, sloppy win for the 49ers. But for those that are keeping score at home, which I don't know who does that anymore, I did make it home, turn the phone off, went to go see Wicked with the family, and I did say I was going to pull 2000s, which is, I actually turned my phone off and I was like, I'm not going to let anyone spoil it, bother me or anything. So I went to the movie, went straight home. I told my wife, just go in the house before me and queue it up to the kickoff. Because sometimes you turn the TV on and it might be the post game and you're like, ah, son of a. Yeah, that's the worst. So, yeah. So I was like, babe, just cue it up to the kickoff and then tell me it's ready. So I ran in the house and a three hour football game you could watch in about an hour 15 without missing a play. I'm talking like, just fast forward through the TV timeouts, the injuries, halftime, commercials, everything.

[Steve Covino]

And can you really get the feel of. I don't want to say how boring it was, but you right, you said sloppy. That was the overall sentiment of the feel of the game. It was sort of a sloppy win, but still the win for the 49ers. Purdy wasn't his best. I feel like the announcers were a little hard on the game. Like, yeah, not the most exciting, not the. The cleanest game of football for the 49ers. Did you still get that vibe even though you were FF ing it the whole time?

[Danny G]

I'm.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, dude. I thought as a Niners fan, I'm pleased because later on we're going to figure out who's going to not make the playoffs in the nfc. We're going to do a little schedule watching in a little bit. But the niners improved to 8 and 4 and I don't know what else you could ask for. There's a lot of criticism today of turnovers from Purdy.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, yeah, hold on, Rich. I got to pause because the whole mission yesterday was can Rich navigate his night without the game being spoiled? Success. You were able to pull that off. But I want to know your thoughts. The Fox Sports Radio Nation on the edge of their seat before we talk about Brock Purdy.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

What did you think of Wicked for good?

[Rich Davis]

Oh, fantastic. Y'. All. Wicked for good.

[Ryan Seacrest]

How about.

[Steve Covino]

What do you give it on the potato meter?

[Rich Davis]

How about so damn good? It was fantastic. Honestly, if you like the Broadway show or the first one or anything, if you're a fan of Wicked. I thought it was fantastic. I loved it. Amazing. What about that X rated scene? There wasn't one. Like, that was the most overrated thing of all time. I read a woman took her kids who wrote like an op Ed or something for people. Like, I took my kids out of the theater. Some old granny. That. That's lame. Yo, Fiero, what was Theero, the guy that ends up turning into the scarecrow? Spoiler alert.

[Danny G]

Spoiler alert.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, geez. I mean, could you spoil a 20 year old Broadway show?

[Steve Covino]

You blow it.

[Rich Davis]

Fiero and Elphaba, Cynthia Rivo, the green, the bad witch, Wicked witch. They make out and it's like a. They're singing a love song and at the end they make out. And then the next scene they wake up in a bed and he's like, has no shirt on this.

[Steve Covino]

No, it does not. With Judy Garland. Bro, Bro.

[Rich Davis]

It was nothing. Anyone that's making a deal of it honestly is like forcing some weird narrative. It really is. Like, there was Nothing inappropriate. My 5 year old was there and I didn't even think twice.

[Danny G]

Was it awkward? Did you have to explain some things to Ben on the ride home?

[Rich Davis]

No, I was gonna say it's not even Yo. It's one of those things that if unless you pointed it out, you wouldn't even have thought about it.

[Steve Covino]

Did Ben say, did they have hanky panky? Dad, what was going on? Did they make Whoopi hanky panky?

[Rich Davis]

Dad, did they make Whoopi? People don't know. My 5 year old son loves 70s game shows. So Wicked was great. Got home, watched the game, and I'll tell you what. Wicked was better than the game. But I'm happy to get the W. As Fred Warner, who's not playing these days, unfortunately, always says, dub City, baby. You get the win. It doesn't matter.

[Steve Covino]

That's all that matters.

[Rich Davis]

And Brock Purdy. I want to talk about Brock. Let's. Let's dive into this now. Let's get heated, dude.

[Steve Covino]

Not only were the announcers sort of tough on him and the game and the turnovers, but even our guy Colin Cowherd says, you know, he's called them the right handed Tua.

[Rich Davis]

How dare you.

[Steve Covino]

He's as good as Tua. And he really criticized his last 30 games. And when you look at the stats.

[Rich Davis]

For the last 30 games, I'll tell you why.

[Steve Covino]

Well, please do tell me why. I'm just sort of, you know, letting the world know in case they missed it. Yeah, that his stats last 30 games are average at best. Yeah, when you factor in how much money he's getting paid as well.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, but like we have the. We have the memory. What is a bad memory of goldfish? An elephant.

[Danny G]

What?

[Rich Davis]

What?

[Steve Covino]

No. Elephants have good memories.

[Rich Davis]

All right, well, guess what? Colin's not an elephant, okay? And neither are you or anyone else. Because you're all goldfish. You're a little goldfish in a little tank. Because you forget that last year we knew that Brock Purdy had no one. That whole team was hurt. They were under.500. It was just a wash of a season for the 49ers, coming off a Super bowl loss. Everyone remember McCaffrey was out the whole year, kiddo. So we were all like, man, Brock did the best he could with nothing. And now you're throwing those stats in some bigger picture to prove your point. Like we. He got the contract after that season. So what's with all this BS that like Brock's not delivering? Well, guess what? Those numbers he put up last year still enabled this dude to get 50 plus million dollars. Here's where I'm going to defend Brock Purdy.

[Steve Covino]

In fairness, Colin did say something along the lines of he is a better athlete than to and makes better decisions or whatever, but essentially he's the same guy. The right handed version. Well, and I'm just saying that simply to paint the picture that you're describing, that a lot of people are being hard on him today.

[Rich Davis]

Listen, I see a headline now on FS1. Should 49er fans feel better or worse after that win? The answer is undeniably 100% better. They pulled off a W against a team that was sort of in that playoff borderline conversation. Right? The Panthers are way better than we thought. They're now 6 and 6.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, but the 49ers are your team, so you're always going to see the silver lining.

[Rich Davis]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Steve Covino]

Actually, it's like a parent never sees.

[Rich Davis]

Nope, the opposite.

[Steve Covino]

Ugly. Their kids are the opposite. Their kids are the cutest.

[Rich Davis]

I think fans are harder on their team than most people. You know, they're always complaining. Anyone that thinks Mac Jones is the answer, get your head out of your ass. Mac Jones is a great backup quarterback. Brock Purdy is a hell of a lot better than Mac Jones. Three interceptions. Could we talk about context? Because it matters, right? In all things, like, yeah, 193 yards.

[Steve Covino]

One touchdown, three interceptions. And for the record, I'm just playing devil's advocate. I root for Brock Purdy and I think he's a great player. So go ahead, Rich.

[Rich Davis]

193 yards. Doesn't matter, dude. They were in control of that game. They couldn't stop the run. So McCaffrey had a very busy night. Robinson as a backup had some good runs. Listen, what I'm not understanding is people not realizing context. You see quarterbacks sometimes struggle. All the throws are terrible. Like they're just. They're misreading every coverage. Brock Purdy was seeing all his reads. He was controlling the game, just made a couple bad throws. It really is that. And you could say, well, you're a National Football League quarterback. I don't think it's problematic. Like, Brock Purdy is a bad quarterback. I think Brock Purdy had a bad night where he just. I don't know, it was his. He was a little off with his throws, which to me is so much different than a quarterback that looks lost in the sauce. Brock Purdy was confident throwing dimes at times, but other times he just seemed like he was off. He's been in and out of that lineup, as you know, because of injuries, the turf toe. Nothing about Brock Purdy concerned me. If anything, I'm like, all right, he Got that one out of his system and the 49ers got a wood.

[Steve Covino]

Just an off night. That's a positive way to look at it. He had an off night and still came away with the win.

[Danny G]

Yeah, I mean, that's a positive way to look at it, Rich, but are you nervous going up against that Browns defense?

[Rich Davis]

They're going to annihilate the Browns.

[Danny G]

You think so?

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. Listen, the Browns.

[Danny G]

You don't think Miles Garrett's going to be all over Purdy?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, dude's a sack machine. I mean.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, yeah. So's your mother. No, that.

[Danny G]

I think that that makes that up, you know, that much more interesting, Rich, because I don't think Purdy can get away with some of that against the Browns defense. We know the Browns offense has struggled. Maybe Shador is going to stabilize things. That's yet to be seen. But, you know, I don't know how you can go into that game against the Browns and think they're going to just step right over that defense.

[Rich Davis]

I look at it from just a.

[Isaac Lone Crown]

Perhaps you.

[Rich Davis]

Perhaps you're right. Maybe I'm looking at it from a way positive standpoint, but I look at it and say the interceptions he threw weren't under. They weren't under duress. They weren't like ill advised throws. They weren't like into the wrong coverage. Like, oh my God, he didn't see the. The linebacker drop back. Like, these are all throws that, like he just missed a guy leading him too much or it was behind them by foot. They were just bad throws. And I know you're saying, what's the NFL, dude? Bad throws. I'll take any day over. Wow. My quarterback has no clue. Brock Purdy looked great. He just made bad throws.

[Steve Covino]

A bad night. Just a bad night. And still got the win. Reading the feedback on our chat. Hey, we all know when our team barely wins, we're relieved. Not every win is going to be a sexy win. That's from Willa Minna Kreider. Green 4, 8, 7, 7. And Esteban says, what's up, Rich? A win is a win. It doesn't matter if it's by an inch or a mile. That's from Piffenomenal. So lots of feedback coming in. It's interesting though. You got to keep it in perspective. Everybody's saying they looked average yesterday with the win, Purdy didn't look his best. And that's fair to say that everyone's going to have an off night. But isn't it ironic? Don't you think that the one guy defending him is a 49ers fan.

[Rich Davis]

I. I think it's just an easy. It's a layup. It's a layup. As a dumb talking sports head or someone on TikTok or Instagram to be like, Purdy threw three picks. He sucks. Maybe they should go with Mac Jones. 50 mil. What a waste. I. He had a bad night. But again, I was saying. You feel what I'm saying, right? As far as. Like, it wasn't his play. It was just a couple bad throws. Yeah. Kyle Shanahan at the halftime interview, he. His level of concern pretty much matches yours. Like, he was just like, yeah, he's just a little off.

[Ryan Seacrest]

He.

[Rich Davis]

He just dismissed the question like, it wasn't. It was nothing to him. He knew he was gonna be fine.

[Steve Covino]

And you know what? I really do love Danny G's sort of observation here, though. It does make next week's game that much more exciting, though. Like, how do you rebound from that? And the defense versus their offense, it makes.

[Rich Davis]

It makes Shador second start against the Niners in a game that maybe wasn't that interesting. Like, oh, yeah, maybe that's a game to.

[Steve Covino]

To sets up the drama real nice. Like, now I'm even more intrigued to see how this all plays out and we can come back next week. Like, yo, even with their defense, even with Garrett, yo, Purdy was the man. Like, he could totally redeem himself from a bad game if it was just that.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, I know they're different sports, but there are times where your. Your ace pitcher goes out there, and for the first couple innings, he just doesn't have his stuff that day. And, you know, he'll pitch four innings, five runs, and you're like, ah, man, our. Our ace, you know, pooped to bed tonight. It happens. And I know football's different. Shorter schedule games mean way more. But to me, Brock Purdy knows how to play football. He had some bad throws, dude. Everything about his game other than that, he. He was not getting swallowed up in the pocket. He was moving around the right way again. The interceptions were all on balls that I wish he wishes he could have back because he had. The receiver just made a bad throw. And I know I'm making excuses maybe, but.

[Steve Covino]

No, no, you know, I'm with you. I'm just playing devil's advocate. His arm, his passing, his decision making was never, ever the question here. It was his health. It was his foot. And if all that looked good, then, yo, man, you got to win. You're eight and four now it looked to me like a great night for Rich Davis. You saw wicked. It was great. Your kids behaved. You came back, you watched. The game wasn't spoiled. The team won. They won on a bad game, they still won 20 to 9. The only downside was how much he spent on popcorn.

[Rich Davis]

And you know what? Kyle Shanahan shares my sentiment. So if you don't believe me, listen to the head coach.

[Steve Covino]

You got to think about all of them, why it's happening. You know, it makes me a lot more hesitant if they're all bad decisions and stuff. But he was seeing it right? They were all really good decisions. Just missed the throw on him. So, you know, I think it's, it is a lot worse when you feel like he's not making the right decisions.

[Rich Davis]

Dude, I would say Camino. I swear to God, I didn't hear Kyle say that. I felt that as a fan who's invested, I felt like at no point, because we know those times where a guy scrambled on third and short and he flings an ill advised ball. Remember Josh Allen a couple weeks ago? Like almost looked like he was doing a basketball chest pass into the end zone and it was a pitch, like desperate.

[Steve Covino]

You're like, what are they doing?

[Rich Davis]

Like, what are you doing? Don't throw it away. Don't throw it down the sideline into double coverage. He made no bad decisions. He just had a weak ass arm.

[Danny G]

Last night, Rich, I'm wondering what the west would won play by play. Guys were seeing that the TV audience wasn't because I, after doing CNR post production, I was on the freeway with all the Thanksgiving travelers and I'm listening to the radio broadcast and their two play by play guys for Westwood One kept pointing out that they didn't feel like Purdy had the usual velocity that he normally has on his path.

[Rich Davis]

You know what, I'm, you know, perhaps I'm no doctor. Even though you might think that because you're like, man, Rich, you're really smart. You must be a doctor.

[Steve Covino]

No, we didn't think the way he used to.

[Rich Davis]

That's not, that's not the sentiment. So the room. Do we, any of us think that.

[Steve Covino]

But you do have an md, a massive dome.

[Rich Davis]

So people might think you know, rich, you know doctor.

[Steve Covino]

But no, he is a PhD though. Pretty huge dork.

[Danny G]

Rich, on the radio broadcast, I listened for an hour. They pointed out his arm in the velocity probably three or four times in the broadcast. So once I got to a tv, I was just wondering because it doesn't seem like you're worried about that?

[Rich Davis]

There were a couple that were one of the picks seemed like a floater that didn't get there. Maybe again, not a doctor that you might think maybe planting on that turf toe. Think about anytime you throw a ball, you plan for a shot. In basketball, you plan for a cut. In football, anything you do your big toe, his turf toe. I mean, maybe there's a little hesitancy and you know, when you favor something a little bit, it throws you off. I'm making excuses now for Brock Party next week, I think will be the real test. Because they play Cleveland, they win that they're 9 and 4, then they have a bi week and come back and play the 1 in 10 Tennessee Titans. The 49ers, if they want to make the playoffs, need to be 10 and 4 in a couple of weeks from now. And then I'll tell you exactly why. Because I have the whole NFC playoff picture broken down perfectly.

[Steve Covino]

I watched the game. I know what's the whole thing. And this is a half. This is a glass half full, glass half empty sort of situation. It's just a matter of how you want to look at it. And Rich has me convinced, really does. I watched a game. I feel the same way that Rich did. And it's simply this. For me, if you could still be dominant on your worst day and still pull a W on your worst day, to me that says a lot. And I chalk that up in everyday life. If Rich and I could still do one of the better shows in the nation on an off day, I think we're doing okay.

[Rich Davis]

I feel like our bad shows are better than some other people's good shows.

[Steve Covino]

Ta da. I feel like. Hold on. How many times do we say that to one another? It wasn't the best show. Right. Because you can't have it every day. But even at our worst, we still feel like we're one of the best.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

And if your team could still pull a win when they didn't play their best, I think you're sitting pretty at 8 and 4. And it's still your season just as much as anyone else's. So if you're looking at it half full, I think your team is really in contention. They pulled off a nice win or a sloppy win, but a nice win on their worst day. So even at their worst, they're still one of the best in the league right now.

[Rich Davis]

Kavino, a hot girl. Because I, you know, I do an analogy to relationships or everything, so why stop now? A hot girl with a big pimple on her nose, wearing an ugly shirt is still going to have every guy in the bar wanting her. Even on it might not be her best day, but on her worst day, guys are still going to want her. It's listen, Aaron Judge is going to go through his ups and downs. Steph Curry is going to have a game where he shoots 20%. These things happen. And because the only difference is it's.

[Steve Covino]

The NFL, we over speculated everything and a lot has to do with the matchup next week. And Danny G hit the nail on the head that makes it so much cooler. Your thoughts at 87799 on Fox. Is rich big dream in here? Is Rich trying to polish a turd right now? You let us know is Purdy cheeks buns. Let me give you have a bad night.

[Rich Davis]

Let me give you two more quick things and we'll take all your feedback and then I'm going to tell you why, oh why you can't punch someone in the nuts because you're going to get caught. I have a theory on what happened to Joanne Jennings and I do want to break down the whole NFC playoff picture because I think it's really interesting once you start realizing there's going to be one team out of the mix and you got to ask yourself, who is that team? I'll break it down, explain everything. We'll have some fun with it, have some laughs, all that good stuff here on cnr.

[Steve Covino]

Rich finally figured out why my place is the hangout spot for all my friends and family.

We are live from the FOX Sports Radio studio. Well, Rich Davis, Danny G, Sam and Spot are lowenkrawn on standby. I'm actually live in Jersey Union, New Jersey. That's my hometown, here for the holidays. But our show is sponsored by DraftKings Sportsbook, Covino and Rich, sponsored by DraftKings Sportsbook, an official sports betting partner of the NFL and NBA. And right now, use the promo code crshow to claim your special offer at DraftKings. Again, that's promo code crshow@draftkings. The Crown is yours. Now we got Showboy Mahomes trivia giving away prizes, stopping by. We're actually going to talk. Shohei Otani and Nutgate. I believe Dan Beyer called it nutgate. I was listening to him and Monty. They're so great. Did a great job. Actually, I was. Sam, package gate. Package gate. We'll talk that. But Brock Purdy is the discussion at hand right now. 193 yards, 121 tutty, 3 ints. Joey Elbows is hitting us up on our chat. Rich saying Purdy is cheeks. And Crane 19 says you'd be singing a different tune had they lost. You know, it's the fact that they won that you're seeing things from a positive light.

[Rich Davis]

Isn't that. Yeah, no, duh.

[Steve Covino]

I'm reading the feedback.

[Rich Davis]

If you get away with the W and your star quarterback makes mistakes, you're like, all right, we got away with one.

[Steve Covino]

Joey Elbow says San Francisco has the easiest schedule in the league. No Bosa, no Warner. San Francisco is cooked. So lots of feedback on the. On the live chat, COVINO and RICH FSR on YouTube. COVINO and RICH FSR.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, tell Joey Elbows and anyone else that disagrees with me that the 49ers last night. You know what people should be talking about how Christian McCaffrey's as good as he's ever been. How George, George Kittle looks like he's back to full health. Robert Sala has that defense. I know you could say, dude, it was. It was the Panthers. But the Niners are not letting up a ton this, this team. I mean, unless you play the Rams, I guess, right? But this team is not super bowl bound. But they are playoff bound. Then I'll tell you, coming up in a little bit, who's on the outside looking in. And I think you're going to be shocked.

[Steve Covino]

Well, Rich, as a guy on the outside looking in, when it comes to the 49ers, I watched him because of you. Did the 49ers really ever bank on Purdy being or playing like a superstar, being just really good like you are banking on McCaffrey and Kittle and the stars like that to play like superstars. And they are. So Purdy had an off night. No big deal. Like, again, it's over speculation. It's the NFL. It's what we do. That's exactly how I'm seeing it, man.

[Rich Davis]

Now we're not talking about all those things. We're talking about Purdy, which I guess makes sense. He's the guy that got paid 50 to 60 million dollars to lead this team. He's been sidelined most of the year. And you saw Mac Jones play respectable. Keep in mind, Purdy's not helping himself with eight tutties, seven interceptions where Mac Jones filled in 13 touchdowns, six interceptions. So on paper you'd be like, man, Mac Jones, maybe stick with the hot hand. Anyone that knows this team and the system, they know that Brock Purdy is just a better quarterback for what they're doing. Sees the field better, moves around better again, just bad decisions and we could end it at that.

[Steve Covino]

You want to talk about package gate, though?

[Rich Davis]

You know I do. And then we'll get to Isaac Lone Crown, because when I think packages, well, we'll get to him a little bit with an update. But yo, after the game, I'm sure we all saw the same thing. They're showing everyone do their little post game high fives. A lot of focus on McCaffrey because he was a big player in the game and former Carolina Panthers. So you saw him growing it up with a lot of his old teammates and personnel and then out of nowhere mixed it with all the high fives and like, yo, good game. Good game, bro. Get jersey swaps. You see Joanne Jennings being like, like restrained by multiple teammates. Like, as if you wanted to murder someone.

[Steve Covino]

Well, he throws a quick left at Mo Rig, and you're thinking something must have happened.

[Rich Davis]

But you didn't see that. You didn't see the throw at first. You just saw him being pulled away, like what was said or done. And then they, of course, they have angles of everything. They go back and like, yo, he through. He shoved the head of Travion Morig. And you're like, why did he do that? And of course, then they keep going back in the tape and. Bunch of sleuths working for the NFL, they find just the play. McCaffrey up the middle, short gain. And you see this guy. I was going to say piece of trash. But you know what? Can you judge someone on one bad moment? Maybe. I don't know. This guy on the Panthers, you guys.

[Danny G]

Were both close with his name, by the way. Trevon Merrick.

[Rich Davis]

Trevon Merrick.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Where's the armor Raider? It's me, H. Where's the. Okay, Mo. What did I say? Mo Rig.

[Rich Davis]

Trevon Merrick.

[Danny G]

There you go.

[Rich Davis]

Isaac Lone Crowns looking at me like no one cares or knows this dude anyway.

[Isaac Lone Crown]

Trayvon Merrick, well, he's a.

[Danny G]

He's a good. He's a good player. The Raiders actually couldn't afford to keep them, and he was a good free agent pickup for the Panthers.

[Rich Davis]

Who'd they keep instead? Danny?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, you don't want it. You don't want to know.

[Danny G]

So they got shin from the commanders.

[Steve Covino]

I know most for punching Jennings in the package.

[Rich Davis]

So this guy takes a legit, like, cheap shot. Like, there's no hiding it. There's no confusion. Like, oh, did he do it? Remember, like the Jamar Chase. Did he spit or not? You're like, I don't know. And remember in the beginning of the season, there was another spit incident where it's like, yo, was he just dribbling out of his mouth or did he spit?

[Steve Covino]

This is Dak Prescott.

[Rich Davis]

This was just a straight up fist.

[Isaac Lone Crown]

Made.

[Rich Davis]

Right in the nuts. Like, like, and. And Kyle Shanahan talked about it afterwards because he was asked, did you see Jennings and why he was so mad.

[Steve Covino]

Did you see what happened to Juwan.

[Ad Voice]

On the last series?

[Steve Covino]

Oh, yeah, the guy took a cheap shot and hit him in the balls. And it's real proud of Juwan for not losing his mind out there and get him to the sideline.

[Rich Davis]

And you know what? Kyle Shanahan, very, very on the same page with Mike Tomlin. Who Remember Mike Tomlin when his player was spit on. He's like, you know, these guys are getting their players backs in these moments. And I thought that was pretty cool. And Juwan Jennings even spoke about getting hit in the huevos.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, I was just responding to me some childish behavior. That's all it was.

[Ad Voice]

Kyle said it was.

[Rich Davis]

It was a cheap shot he was proud of for not retaliating like in the moment.

[Steve Covino]

We talk about all the time how small this window is for us. And so, you know, being seven rounder cut come off. I don't want to make any mistakes. You know, I'm trying to go out there and play the hardest I can. And I like the rest to help me out when they can. That's why these guys got to wear cups, man. Yo, you don't mess like that. Getting hit in the huevos like that is something that women will never understand. When you're rough housing a little bit and you get whoa, right? These are things that you don't play around. When was the last time you got a good nutshell?

[Rich Davis]

You know what, to be honest, two days ago. And I'll tell you the story in a second, but I gotta ask every guy in this room. I want you to admit it. I'm putting truth serum out there. No one could lie. You can't tell a lie. Okay. How many times has a girl you were dating or your wife accidentally hit you in the huevos and you over exaggerate to get a little sympathy like, and it's really not that bad.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, to get a little sympathy rub out of it.

[Rich Davis]

Whoa.

[Steve Covino]

I said love, love, love.

[Rich Davis]

Okay.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

What have you exactly? I've absolutely done the. I've accidentally, like, you know, you're wrestling around, horsing around with your girl and she accidentally hit you and you overstayed it.

[Steve Covino]

I can't say I did that. You sound like a conniving creep to me.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, yeah.

[Steve Covino]

I'm not joining in on this.

[Rich Davis]

You're leaving me out to dry, you son of a. I'm the only one.

[Steve Covino]

O it up like we all do it. Nah, man. You're the only guy.

[Rich Davis]

You're telling me.

[Isaac Lone Crown]

Just you just when you think you know someone, huh?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, man. Wow.

[Rich Davis]

Maybe. Maybe I am a conniving creep.

[Steve Covino]

This guy's a regular Tom Sawyer. Oh.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, my God, honey.

[Danny G]

Oh.

[Rich Davis]

But I will say, oh, my goodness.

[Steve Covino]

I'm in so much pain.

[Rich Davis]

I knock on wood. Have avoided getting really hit in the nuts bed my whole life. I play third base in high school. I play third base when I play softball now. I like. I like playing that hot Corner. I don't wear a cup. Knock on wood. Still have never got hit in the nuts. Would you believe two days ago, Two days ago, my son, it's like, you know when you're, when you have a son that plays baseball, they walk around the house, phantom swinging because they, you know, they're in little kid baseball mode. Just walks around, thinks he's swinging. He swings his like hands and he's five. Yo, he hit me so hard, I fell to my knees and I go, oh, I.

[Steve Covino]

He's at that perfect height.

[Rich Davis]

He started crying. He's like, mommy, I heard, daddy, I'm buddy, it's okay, but you better freaking watch out.

[Steve Covino]

So that's two balls, one strike.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, two balls, one strike. But hey, I, I think it's a, a low class move. Kavino, you and I have talked about this in the past.

[Steve Covino]

Dude, that's trash behavior. You're in the NFL. Like, that's really weird.

[Rich Davis]

I know.

[Steve Covino]

Because that's man to man. Like, you know the damage you could do. That's so lame.

[Rich Davis]

I know.

[Steve Covino]

And you know that all cameras are on you too. That's the other thing.

[Rich Davis]

Suspended one game. And he's going to fight it. What is he going to fight? Like meant to tickle him. Listen, getting said he was trying to.

[Danny G]

Punch out the ball.

[Rich Davis]

Punch out the ball balls. But I look at it this way. There's few things you could do to another man. It's just like unacceptable and spitting, hitting someone in the nuts. And Kavito, you've talked about talking about my mama, talking about someone's family, their wife or kids.

[Steve Covino]

These are, these are the no nos in life, no no's on the field. Yeah. Those are the line crosses. Every guy knows them.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. I think I call it. It's the big three. It's the.

[Danny G]

And don't touch another man's car. For all you keyers out there or their grill, you key somebody's car, you're trash.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, yeah, yeah. That's trash behavior. I thought you meant what Cavino does to your car, where he puts his hand down his pants and he touches your handles. No, that, that moves. But no. Yeah, I agree. Don't touch a man's car. Don't talk about his wife or kids. Don't hit him in the nuts and don't spit on him. There's. It's very, these are very simple rules, Steve.

[Steve Covino]

Remember when you saw someone put like.

[Rich Davis]

A palm print on your car and you're like, what the hell? What's up?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, yeah. You're right. Why would you do that?

[Rich Davis]

Why'd you put your greasy meat hook on there?

[Steve Covino]

Get your greasy sausage fingers off my car. I just got it washed. So we're calling it package Gay. I believe Dan Beyer called us something but Juan Jennings, he played it right. He knew that the cameras would pick it up. He called that out and he was just responding to childish behavior. As he said. It doesn't get more childish than that. Yeah, but I want to hear about your, your last time you took one to the package.

[Rich Davis]

Some people have gone a whole lifetime, honestly. Do you think every guy in his life has been punched in the face and hitting the huevos or do you think some guys go their whole life without.

[Steve Covino]

I do believe there's a select few you might be looking at one that, that have never gotten it. I don't think I've ever taken a full on blow to the package.

[Rich Davis]

What if it's self inflicted? Like you're riding your bike down a very steep hill and maybe you fell off your, your bike seat and then you landed on the crossbar and maybe that happened.

[Steve Covino]

Sam, I've always feared that. We've always feared that. But I'm not sure it ever really happened to me.

[Rich Davis]

Well, what if it did happen? What if and it really hurt and you were like 11 years old on your Schwinn and Camino. Think of how many you know you played.

[Steve Covino]

Sounds very specific.

[Rich Davis]

Camino. And I know you played baseball in high school. You never, you never took a bad.

[Steve Covino]

Hop ever off the package? I don't think so. I'm going to think about it and we're going to take your phone calls. Your thoughts on it. This childish behavior, Juan Jennings and his package. 87799 on Fox. But first we got Lowencron on standby.

[Isaac Lone Crown]

[Steve Covino]

[Rich Davis]

Lo and behold, we've learned because, you know, I talk to a lot of doctors and scientists and, you know, high level folks. You know, the amount of tryptophan in a, in a turkey is so minuscule. Like, that's the biggest exaggeration out there. They're like, oh, my God, it must be the trip to fan. Like the levels are so low. You're not, you know why you're drowsy and sluggish? Because you just pigged out all afternoon and laid around like a slob watching football and eating for eight hours.

And it had a lasting impact on Richard Patrick who was watching as a kid. I remember watching as a kid. And he wrote this song. Hey man, nice shot. But the shot we're talking about is the shot to the package last night at the 49ers game anymore.

[Rich Davis]

Any more uplifting fun facts?

[Steve Covino]

Well, I'm just telling you what this song's really about. As the main rock voice on 3.6M Turbo, I just gave myself that title. But happy to be here on Fox Sports Radio. Very thankful. Thanksgiving week. Live from the FOX Sports Radio studio. I'm here in New Jersey and it's time for our tire rack play of the day. Rich's boy that he's defending, Brock Purdy struggled. The Niners still pulled out a win over the Panthers.

[Rich Davis]

A pivotal matchup between two teams jockeying for position in the NFC playoff picture. The 49ers will defeat the Carolina Panthers here tonight, 29. The final final score.

[Steve Covino]

For over 40 years, Tire Rack has been helping customers find the right tires for how, what and where they drive. Shipped fast and free.

The live chat is pop and Rich Covino enrich FSR on YouTube. We're streaming live and also got feedback back from Idaho 99.9. Len and Nick are on their way back from fly fishing listening. They don't buy into nut shots or package shots.

[Rich Davis]

They don't. Okay.

[Steve Covino]

And Nick caught his first fish on the fly rod today and they're loving the CNR show. So props to Len and Nicholas. But Rich, I know you had final thoughts Jerry Springer style.

[Rich Davis]

I just think that it's a, it's a low class move.

[Steve Covino]

It is.

[Rich Davis]

I can't.

[Steve Covino]

It's a no class.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, and I, and I think the one game suspension that seems, seems fair, seems legit. But I think the 49ers are. Because no one's dominant except the Rams. I keep saying we got to remember the Rams. While every other team in the NFL has shown moments of like, ooh, that was, that wasn't good. The Rams have really not shown that at all. In fact, we said yesterday they're too.

[Steve Covino]

Patriots fans would smirk at that.

[Rich Davis]

Okay, you know what? Maybe you're right. Maybe I don't necessarily buy in quite yet. But I will say when you look at the Rams, they could very well be 11 and oh, they lost an overtime game to the Niners that they fumbled on the one foot line. And remember they lost on a game winning field goal block to the Eagles. So you know the Rams, other than the Rams, I think that the NFL is so wide open that if a team like the Niners plays good enough and Brock Purdy finds his game, they could get to the divisional round or so. I just think the NFL is wide open. And I'm going to go over the whole NFC playoff picture. I know we're, we're more than halfway there now. We got five, six games left for a lot of teams. And I think the writings on the wall as to what team could very well be out of it and you'll be shocked. What team I think is the writing.

[Steve Covino]

On the wall is set for a good time.

[Rich Davis]

Cole Rich's mother, I have a question for you that I want to get your feedback next.

[Steve Covino]

Okay.

[Rich Davis]

Now honestly, I do want to touch on this for a second. It's not sports related at all. And politics aside, I don't care if you love Trump, hate him, Democrat, Republican, we're here to have a good time and laugh and I think you'll find this funny.

[Steve Covino]

Did you realize Trump was such a Shador Sanders fan?

[Rich Davis]

I didn't know he would make such a big deal about parting that turkey. Gobble. I'm setting you free. Gobble.

[Steve Covino]

I just want to tell you this very important. You are hereby unconditionally cord.

[Rich Davis]

No, there's a, there's something Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said, being that we're about to enter, they're calling this, no joke, the busiest traveling Thanksgiving of all time. I'm not trying to sound like Jesse Palmer on the Bachelor, like the most dramatic season ever, they're saying. More traveling this week than ever before, you hear ever before. So he released a statement that I think is hilarious that I think you'll get with. So we'll do that. We'll go over the NFC playoffs all next.
