Ty Shirts Tower of trivia at the bottom of the
hour Anthony Davis Edition. I guess it's in tribute to
the turmoil that the Lakers are in now. And you
got an Anthony Davis edition coming?

Speaker 6 (01:36):
Is this the hospital edition?

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Is that what we're doing?

Speaker 7 (01:39):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (01:40):
Sorry about that, all right?

Speaker 5 (01:43):
But Rob, we have talked about the NFL obviously as
they we head into the playoffs after Week eighteen coming up,
talked about the Pro Bowl and the quarterbacks, and Rock
Party is a Pro Bowl quarterback in the NFC, and

(02:05):
because the Niners have the first seed in the NFC
locked up, just like the Raiders, I'm sorry the Ravens
in the AFC.

Speaker 4 (02:15):
The Niners are sitting.

Speaker 5 (02:17):
They have said they're going to sit Rock Party, and
the Ravens have said they are going to sit. Lamar
Jackson and Steve Young, the Hall of Famer, the great,
all time great quarterback and all time great forty nine
er who won a Super Bowl with them as well.
He has said that he thinks it's a bad idea

(02:40):
for Brock Party to sit out Week eighteen.

Speaker 8 (02:43):
Here he is, I don't like sitting out.

Speaker 9 (02:45):
It's not taking a week off, it's just I'd rather
warm up play quarter, even a half and be done.
Like that's the way to kind of stay with it.
I don't feel like there's any you know, now you're
going to get the next week off, so you're not
going to play for three weeks, I mean twenty one days.
That's just from a quarterback spot, it's a hard restart.
It takes a minute. And I always said it takes

(03:06):
every game you missed. It takes a half to kind
of get fully back up to speed.

Speaker 5 (03:11):
We've talked about its been a great analyst too, so
you know he knows what he's talking about.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
But go ahead, Yeah, we we've talked about this, and
I'm going to agree with him for the most part
that and I understand if football is unlike most sports, Chris,
the last thing you want is to have your quarterback
playing in a game that doesn't matter anything, and then
he gets hurt.

Speaker 4 (03:32):
Then you're like, remember the last year.

Speaker 5 (03:35):
I mean it was a meaningful game obviously, but he
and all their quarterbacks got hurt.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
And then right and then people look at you and go,
what what are he playing for?

Speaker 8 (03:44):
There?

Speaker 4 (03:44):
Nothing to play for?

Speaker 1 (03:45):
My god, can't we get him healthy today?

Speaker 2 (03:48):
It's it's a it's a tough spot to be in,
but I've seen guys come out rusty too after three weeks.
Three weeks is not natural once you've played a full season.
It's just din we talked about the baseball Chris. You
play baseball for six straight months every day since every day,

(04:08):
and then the week before then you have a week
off before the playoffs start.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
You think that's good. I don't think that that's good.

Speaker 5 (04:15):
Now, I'm with you, Rob, and I agree with Steve Young,
I think, and there are a few reasons. Number one,
as you said, three weeks off when you're used to
playing every week is a lot.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
It's just a different rhythm. But also Rob, and look.

Speaker 5 (04:34):
They're gonna practice and relatively hard. Obviously they're not gonna
be hitting and things like that, but there's nothing you
can do even if you were, and I know they won't,
but even if you were to practice hard with hitting
and things, you can't replicate the.

Speaker 4 (04:52):
Intensity of an NFL game.

Speaker 5 (04:55):
So that would be three weeks from the last time
that you actually felt the intensity of an NFL game.

Speaker 4 (05:04):
Rob, you you've done TV.

Speaker 5 (05:08):
If and you know I'm on daily on First things first,
if we're off for three weeks, when you go back
into the studio for that first show.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
Again, it feels a little odd.

Speaker 5 (05:20):
I mean, you do it and you're fine, but it
takes you a moment or moments to really get back
in a rhythm.

Speaker 4 (05:29):
It just feels.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
It's like anything else. You do it.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
And the thing is rob in football.

Speaker 5 (05:37):
I mean, you heard Steve Young say you need a
half to get back to being yourself.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
I mean I think that.

Speaker 5 (05:44):
I feel like that's an overstatement. But again, he played,
he knows what he's talking about. But Rob, you don't
have any room for error in the NFL.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
Playoffs, No, and we've seen people fall behind and can't
get it.

Speaker 4 (05:57):
Takes you half a quarter. That's that's too much.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, it's a slippery slope because if somebody gets hurt Chris,
it's the end of the world.

Speaker 6 (06:06):
Right, It's just you'll never hear the end of it.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
If Patrick Mahomes played this Sunday and broke a leg,
oh my god, are you kidding?

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Yeah, like it would be it would be terrible. And
the same thing.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
You mean, Lamar has his MVP year, they're thirteen and
three and they're playing in a meaningless game and he
just got hurt oh, and of course they bring up
you know, he's been hurt the last two why would
you play him?

Speaker 4 (06:34):
Could you do that?

Speaker 5 (06:36):
The other thing Rob in relation to party and I
and tell me where you are on this. But I
really I feel like people forget, man, this dude is
in his second year, his second year, and I get
that they got a lot of great players around him,

(06:57):
there's no doubt, but.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
He is in his that get year.

Speaker 5 (07:01):
Other than Patrick Holmes, we haven't seen a quarterback be
in this type of playoff success, you know, this early
in his career. And I'm not saying it's all due
to him obviously. I mean, Dak you know, they made
the playoffs when he was a rookie, and Lamar you know,

(07:21):
made the playoffs and struggled, you know, his first time
there and stuff. You know, so there's I'm not saying
he's it's totally unprecedented, but I think people forget he
didn't even start all of last season. This guy has
started twenty one games. That's not even a season and
a half. That's another reason, hy I feel like just

(07:43):
him getting his game reps is important. And what I
would do is I would tell those guys they're playing
and then I would probably play him the first half,
at least the first quarter. I would play him at
least he's the first quarter. We'll see if we want
to play him the full half. But I just think

(08:05):
it'd be good for him to get some more reps.
I'm not Look, he'll be He'll be okay if he
does it, But this is a guy that doesn't have
a lot of experience. This is a guy that just
two games ago had four interceptions and the worst game
of his career. I think, Look, he's strong minded. He

(08:26):
did fine last week, he played well, he bounced back.
But I don't think it would hurt him rob if
he went out there and play the half and through
four one hundred.

Speaker 4 (08:36):
And fifty yards and two touchdowns.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
And the only thing is where if you're the forty
nine ers and you feel like you have a team
that has a chance to get to the super Bowl,
Chris right, and you got all the other pieces parts,
if he gets hurt, your dreams are gone right like that,

(08:59):
they would be gone on overnight.

Speaker 5 (09:01):
And that's why that's the argument for him just playing
a half. I mean, sorry, a series or two, or
maybe even a series. I just feel like a series.
You don't get anything out of that. I think what
you get out of playing a series, Rob, is that
the guys prepared all week.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Like I was gonna say, and Christ your pregame warm up,
your pregame work.

Speaker 6 (09:25):
There's a lot of stuff here.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Yeah, there's a lot of stuff that you got to
gear up that you have to do because if you're gonna.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
Take the because you probably not. Wouldn't tell him you
just playing a court.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
No, and you wouldn't, and you wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
You wouldn't go out there like like your mentality if
is I'm prepared to play, right, so I gotta be
ready to play, so you don't go out there half cock.

Speaker 4 (09:47):
Yeah, it is tough.

Speaker 5 (09:48):
Like you said, the last thing you would want is
for somebody to get hurt. And you would never live
it down. I don't care who you are. You would
be criticized. There's no ins answer but about it. Especially
it needs two situations right where both Lamar and Perdy
were hurt last year, right, so you you would get
crushed and everybody talked about, oh you you were clearly
the best team in the conference.

Speaker 6 (10:10):
Why would you do it?

Speaker 2 (10:11):
The game doesn't matter and that's the problem when you
play games that don't matter.

Speaker 4 (10:15):
Right in the.

Speaker 5 (10:16):
NFL, right, yeah, it's a sport where when the games
don't matter.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
We see it in college, right, We talked about it yesterday.
I mean, when the games don't matter, it's hard to
I'm gonna be make guys to be out.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
I'm gonna be mad at players right right right. They
Caleb Williams should play. Caleb william should play in a
meaningless but this day for the National Championship. It's a
meaningless bowl game, that's what it is. And he should
play and his whole future. Oh, they should play for
the love of the game.

Speaker 4 (10:45):
Please.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
He's putting all that work to build itself up to
that situation and then you're gonna let it.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
And there were players who was that guy from Michigan,
Jake Butts.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
Did he say they should You remember.

Speaker 1 (10:58):
No, Jake Butts, Chris. They got hurt, that got hurt.
Don't you remember that?

Speaker 4 (11:01):
Yep? I do.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yep, he got hurt him in a bowl game?

Speaker 4 (11:05):
Yep. Nah you you definitely don't want to do that.

Speaker 5 (11:08):
So it's interesting, you know, we'll see that they've said
they're gonna rest him, so apparently he is not going
to play so he won't get injured, which is good.
But you, I guess you've got to try to try
to make those practices as intense as you can rob
without you know, real contact and stuff. So all right,

(11:29):
we're gonna throw it out to you guys eight seven
seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven nine sixty
three sixty nine rest versus Rust Rock Purdy, Lamar Jackson
both resting this week?

Speaker 4 (11:44):

in these games this weekend?

Ricky slaky?

Hey, what's up?

Speaker 12 (13:10):
Rob?

Speaker 7 (13:10):
Chris? Guys. Good to have you guys back. Man, Happy holidays, Yes, thank.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
You too, Happy New Year? And how's mom doing?

Speaker 7 (13:19):
Mom is doing fun? And thank you for those thoughts. Man,
She's doing good.

Speaker 12 (13:22):
Man, appreciate right, and now really quick before I get
to my point. Man, I got so much salt in
my hair. I'm sitting in the mall and I'm shopping
during the holidays, and I sit down to take a
break and some kids sits on my lap. Thinks I'm
Santa cl Wow.

Speaker 5 (13:40):
Wow, It's like come, you must be a tad chunky too.

Speaker 12 (13:45):
Well, hey, hey, hey, hey, I might.

Speaker 1 (13:48):
Have to work that into my routine.

Speaker 7 (13:51):
I hear you got a good routine, all right, so
I think like this man, guys, good to have you back. Yeah,
you do need some rest. Think about Lebron. Remember how
Lebron did his whole Now he's got his little that
mini championship, and now they hang the banner and now
they're losing every freaking game. You got to you got

(14:12):
to conserve yourself, especially if you're older. Now I feel
for Brock, like he's a younger guy. So the team
is not that young, but Brock is. But at the
same time, like.

Speaker 12 (14:22):
I believe, like two weeks too much.

Speaker 7 (14:25):
One week all right, take a take a week off.
So thanks to my call and hear what you guys
got to say about that things.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
Yep, appreciate it. Yeah, actually great call. Yep.

Speaker 7 (14:35):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
You know, I don't know how you get around it.
I don't know how you figure it out. Chris. You
want people to stay sharp, but you don't want anybody
to get hurt.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
It's a it's a.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
It ain't that easy because sometimes you want to say, oh,
just play, how they going to get hurt? Then ask
yourself about Aaron Rodgers and four snaps in this season.
That's that's how he quick Chris, That's how quickly your
fortunes can change.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
Yeah, it's ah.

Speaker 2 (15:06):
Remember he didn't get hurt back, I mean, he didn't
get like body slammed.

Speaker 4 (15:11):
It's a tough situation.

Speaker 5 (15:13):
And the ironic thing is, like, let's say a player
got hurt in week seventeen.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
People wouldn't look at it that way.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
It ain't decided if you didn't need the game necessary,
because you can't go like, hey, hey we got ten wins,
We're not going to play anybody in the last five games.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
No, that's not that, that's not There.

Speaker 5 (15:32):
Was that year remember when Indianapolis I think it was.
Was it under Tony Dunn?

Speaker 2 (15:36):
No, I didn't like that, Chris, because they had a
chance to go under Phoenix, didn't they? But they were
fourteen and oh and except right, I think he was
fourteen and oh I.

Speaker 5 (15:44):
Think so and then but but weren't they They didn't
win the Super Bowl that year?

Speaker 2 (15:50):
No, that was Jim Calwell. But but I was like,
go for the O six, go for sixteen, and yeah
they were fourteen and oh, you're right, that was Yeah,
that was.

Speaker 5 (16:02):
I agree. I would have went for the six to
the super Bowl, but they lost to the Saints. Yeah, yeah,
it's it's interesting, rob G where you at on?

Speaker 1 (16:14):
We got another call to us want to know.

Speaker 8 (16:16):
I'll tell you what I think that I have less
of a problem with the Niners resting Brock Party than
I do with the Ravens resting Lamar Jackson said it again,
because the we've already seen this movie with them, right
with the Brock Party. Think it's the unknown. He could
get hurt, he might not. We know whatever. He's dealing
with the elbow issue supposedly, But we saw what happened

(16:40):
in twenty nineteen with Lamar Jackson. They were fift. That
team was better than this current team right now. Really,
in my opinion, they were rolling over everything.

Speaker 5 (16:47):
I don't think Lamar was as good, even though he
won the MVP that year.

Speaker 8 (16:51):
Chris, I think I think you're forgetting as well as
Greg great as he played that season.

Speaker 5 (16:55):
No, he was great six touchdown. I don't think he
threw it as now. I don't think he was as
good of a pass or as he is now.

Speaker 8 (17:04):
Yeah, I mean he was more prolific, but I can
see why you would say, as far as just standard quarterbacking, right,
but his rushing was on point. I mean, they were
absolutely devastating. And that scheme specifically, that relies so much
on the running game and and and power running game
and being moving as like a unit. When you're taking

(17:25):
three weeks off, I don't know if I'm as comfortable
with them doing that as I am with the more
varied attack that the Niners present.

Speaker 4 (17:35):
Yeah, I mean, for the Niners on one in one sense.

Speaker 5 (17:38):
Obviously it's great that they get to really rest Christian McCaffrey,
you know, I mean, he's got the straying calf, so
he really can get three weeks to really make sure
that thing is, you know, back to normal. But yeah,
there's no you know answer. I mean, sometimes rest is

(18:01):
going to work. Sometimes you're gonna be rusty, you know,
sometimes playing the guys will work, and sometimes somebody might
get hurt, you know, so and you rob and you
might maybe if you play guys and you lose, or
I should say, if you rest guys and you lose,
maybe you were gonna lose.

Speaker 2 (18:21):
Anyway, right, right, you know, but people might point that
will point to that, Chris, and right, you could you
could have played the guys and still got your butts kicked,
and they'll be like, oh, you're the rest of them?

Speaker 4 (18:32):
Well exactly, you.

Speaker 2 (18:33):
Know, Like so Arthur and Philadelphia, you're in the odd
couple of Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 4 (18:39):
What's up, Arthur?

Speaker 1 (18:41):
How you doing doing great? How are you?

Speaker 13 (18:43):
I'm doing quite well? Correct me for a walk.

Speaker 7 (18:46):
Usually doing the pre season.

Speaker 13 (18:48):
Don't they rest the first team offense and defense a
little bit preseason?

Speaker 4 (18:53):
Oh? They rest them most of the Yeah.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
Yeah, they might do a series of two.

Speaker 4 (18:57):
Teams don't even play at all.

Speaker 2 (18:58):
Yeah, and eight over the last few years because less
and less players have played in the priests.

Speaker 4 (19:04):
And they look bad the first few weeks.

Speaker 13 (19:07):
Right, That's what I'm saying. Don't get me wrong. I'm
not saying they have to play, but just coming so.
I'm not saying they have to play the whole game,
but they he should play a hiss for fundamentally to
keep them shot, am I Right? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (19:20):
Yeah, I mean that's the school of thought, you know
that that that comes from.

Speaker 14 (19:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (19:24):
I mean, like I said, I would play him probably
a quarter.

Speaker 4 (19:32):
I don't. I don't necessarily.

Speaker 5 (19:33):
I don't really love the idea of just playing them
for a possession. I'll probably play him a quarter and
maybe a half.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
And see, right, that's what.

Speaker 13 (19:43):
I'm saying, because if anybody should be playing, I think
they should be blocked.

Speaker 14 (19:46):
Party.

Speaker 4 (19:48):
Well, yeah, I talked about that with his lack of experience,
and I get it.

Speaker 5 (19:52):
You know, he's he's kind of crammed, right, and and
we think of him as a guy that's got more
than a year and a half of experien sperience, but
he doesn't. And so it'd be good to see him
go out there and you know, play play for a
half or so or a quarter or whatever. All right, Rob,
you know you got the spurs and the bucks. It

(20:13):
is a barn burn what one oh six apiece? Whoy
and Victor win. But now now Yannis is putting on
a show for the young boy. He's got thirty points,
thirteen rebounds, seven assists. But Wimbanyama is giving it back
as good as he's taken it twenty three points, eight rebounds,

(20:37):
three rejections in just twenty two minutes. Rob, and I
think he's on the twenty four minute restriction.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
Has the losing taken some steam off of wmby Chris?
It just doesn't seem like I.

Speaker 4 (20:51):
Don't think it's taking any off him.

Speaker 1 (20:52):
No, I'm just talking about the talk of him.

Speaker 2 (20:55):
The talk, well, yeah, I mean I think that's what
I mean, not him, whether he's a good player or not.
I'm just talking about like, they're not musky TV. No,
would you with that?

Speaker 5 (21:06):
I'm watching them, But you're right. I early on, remember
you were watching as much as you could get everybody thinking,
oh my gosh, like he's turning them around.

Speaker 4 (21:15):
Immediately they were absolute musty TV. Now I agree.

Speaker 5 (21:19):
I don't think people are looking at them as musky TV.
And understandably. I mean they're losing.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
It's not that you don't want to see Winby and
see what he's doing ten and you know, fifteen or something.

Speaker 4 (21:32):
I mean they are atrocious. They're five and twenty eight.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
It's hard to watch. It's just hard to wait.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
He he he.

Speaker 5 (21:39):
I don't think this is a reflection on him at all.
I think it's a reflection on the Spurs, the way
they're using him, the limits they're putting on him in
terms of his minutes, and you know, he had the
little ankle injury, so they're being overly cautious with that.

Speaker 13 (21:54):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (21:54):
Some of the guys I don't think, you know, are
are looking for him the way they should be. So
I just remember when Lebron came here, Rob and Ricky Davis.
Lebron was like, you know, played the good guy and

Speaker 5 (33:44):
All right, it's the Eye Couple live from the tire
Rag dot com studios.

Speaker 4 (33:47):
Rob, you were telling.

Speaker 5 (33:48):
Us about your eighteen dollars flight to Las Vegas. Did
you know that a life jacket was included with your ticket?

Speaker 13 (34:00):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (34:00):
Is that right? That's why thirty eight dollars?

Speaker 5 (34:03):
Man nineteen dollars each way and here's a life jacket.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
That's crazy, though, That is an unbelievable price. Somebody would
have to spy.

Speaker 4 (34:11):
Don't know what I said that plane?

Speaker 2 (34:13):
Oh no, that's all right, you know what I said
to Rob G Chris and I don't know. I'm just guessing.
We're guessing. I think that they get paid or the
airlines get some sort of kickback from Nevada in bringing
people to Las Vegas.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
Do you see what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (34:31):
Yeah, yeah, because the flights are so.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
Cheap, right because you know, like if you're gonna if
you're like, wanna go away for a weekend, right and
you want to go to Las Vegas, if the flight
is three hundred and fifty dollars, are you going? Chris, No,
you're not right, No, because I gotta pay for a hotel,
I gotta pay for meals.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
And then if I want to damn.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
From it, from this far, my flight was hot more
expensive than that, right from LA I mean from New York, right,
because you going across country in the winter.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
But you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
But if you look at and you go, hey, we
could get a flight for forty bucks or fifty bucks
to go to Vegas, now you feel more comfortable with
what with gambling once you get there. I'm just saying
I don't know it to be a fact, but they
have to be making money elsewhere, Chris, Like, for every
passenger that flies into Las Vegas, you know what I mean, Ye.

Speaker 1 (35:23):
The casinos will pay him.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
Yeah, because in that ticket we looked at it, Chris,
the airline makes eight dollars from the thirty eight dollars
and twenty cents and the government makes thirty thirty dollars
and twenty cents, so the airline makes eight dollars off.

Speaker 4 (35:44):
Of the flight.

Speaker 5 (35:45):
Wow, wow, yeah, crazy interesting.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
But I can't wait. The super Bowl. Will be there
all week? Will you be there all week? Chris? Oh,
we don't know.

Speaker 4 (35:56):
Yeah, I'm all week all week?

Speaker 6 (35:59):

Speaker 4 (36:28):
Did you see Rob G?

Speaker 5 (36:30):
Don't want to admit it, Victor win Banyama, he did something,
probably rob G does it?

Speaker 4 (36:36):
Not no one else in the league.

Speaker 5 (36:38):
Well, he loves Check Houlmer, who I like too, but
Rob for some reason, it feels like you can't like
them both.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
Wim Banyama rob somebody asked me that can you look
two women?

Speaker 4 (36:50):
Yan said the basket.

Speaker 5 (36:54):
Gave wim Bean Yama a fearm shiver, and then went
up the dunk, and Wimby rejected it. I don't know
that anybody in the league is doing anybody else in
the league is doing that. And Rob G's upset about it.

Speaker 8 (37:11):
Rob G, just embrace Wimby. It's okay, he's fine. But
Rob you know I can't. I can't have two tall
guys on my team, Rob G. That's I made my choice.

Speaker 4 (37:21):
I made.

you couldn't like both Kobe and Lebron. You got to
pick one and picked.

Speaker 1 (37:27):

Speaker 8 (37:29):
I think my lanky, tall guy is going to be
chet Holme Gren.

Speaker 4 (37:33):
I like them both.

Speaker 6 (37:35):
But Chris, you also.

Speaker 4 (37:44):
No you're not.

You're only from one place where you were born. The
rest would just stop by fly by. Well, that's that's
your that's your lot.

Speaker 8 (37:52):
Los Jamaica queens him in.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
