He played his 104 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: entire sixteen year career for the Chargers, the San Diego Chargers, 105 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: that is where they still should be, and holds the 106 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 1: NFL record for most touchdown receptions by tight end. 107 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,720 Speaker 2: That's root of him.

I don't see breaking it. No, No, 115 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that. Why who's going to break it? 116 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: Get into go ahead, all right, let's get on Antonio Gates, Joels. 117 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 1: What's the first thing you think of Antonio Gates besides 118 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,679 Speaker 1: him going to Kent State where that's your alma matter. 119 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 2: Revolutionary, that's good point, that's the first thing. I mean, 120 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 2: he was. 121 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 3: There's always been there's been guys that played basketball and 122 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 3: football that went to the league. Tony Gonzalez, right, yes, 123 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 3: but this guy didn't even play any football. And I 124 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 3: heard the story because I was We did, we did 125 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 3: a show recently together. He went to Michigan State to 126 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 3: play with Sabin and basketball. 127 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: There something went down. 128 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 3: He went to Kent State, was gonna play football, but 129 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 3: he loved basketball, and they went to the Elite eight 130 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,239 Speaker 3: and shit, and he was doing crazy things. Never played 131 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 3: football and then got drafted or then went to the 132 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 3: NFL and became legendary. Like that's revolutionary to me. And 133 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 3: it was so fun to pick his brain on how 134 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 3: he used to run routes. He ran routes like he 135 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: was playing basketball. 136 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, he sure did. And that's that's what he said. 137 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: What's what made him so great is that he took 138 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: those basketball skills and he translated it onto the football field. 139 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 2: That's kind of what got him open. 140 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 1: Like he was just so smooth with at top of 141 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: the route that a defender didn't know which way he 142 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 1: was going. It was like he was dribbling the ball 143 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: as a point guard at ten yards down to the 144 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: route and then boom, you wuldn't know what way he 145 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: was breaking because he was so smooth with his route 146 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: and he was so shifty with his routes. That's what 147 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: got him opened so much on, you know, in the 148 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: passing game as a tight end. And I got to 149 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: give him credit. He was a very solid blocker. He 150 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 1: was for never even playing the game of football, Like 151 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: did he play in high school? 152 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 2: Did he played in high school? He played football in 153 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 2: high school. 154 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 3: But he also he told me when he first got 155 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 3: to the Chargers, he didn't even get a chance to 156 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 3: sniff the pass game. They made him a pass blocking 157 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 3: tight end first, Like that was how he got his 158 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 3: reps to be coming Antonio Gates. 159 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 2: But go back, sorry to cut you off. 160 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, no, that no, that actually explained a lot 161 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: because I was going to say, usually a guy that 162 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: is coming from you know, the football and the basketball side, 163 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: finesse guy. Yeah, they're finess like they make people miss. 164 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: They don't want to run through anybody, they don't want 165 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: to get dirty in the trenches. Well, Antonio Gates was 166 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: there to get dirty and blocking the run game. And 167 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: he had that football mentality, which is very impressive because 168 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: he played basketball in college and not football, because in 169 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: order to be a football player, you gotta have that 170 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: mentality of just being off. 171 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,119 Speaker 2: A little bit. You gotta have a screw loose every 172 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 2: football player does. I mean, it's we're not here. 173 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: We're not here to say we're scientists and and surgeons 174 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: and all and some mad Garrett he's a he's a 175 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: dinosaur scientist. And the safety that went to Florida State, 176 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: he's he's a he's a well known doctor as well. 177 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: Role was it my role? Right? Yeah? And toWin roll 178 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 2: something like that. He plays safety then retired. But we're 179 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 2: not doctor, We're not the majority of us. 180 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: Ninety eight percent of us aren't doctors and scientists and geniuses. 181 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: While I'm a genius and in different ways you are too, jees, 182 00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: but uh, this guy had an athlete athleticism untilio Gates 183 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: red zone threat. You know, obviously he has one hundred 184 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: and sixteen touchdowns and everyone said I was a red 185 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: zone threat. 186 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 2: This guy was a fricking red zone threat. 187 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: I can tell you that great ball, scales, great hands, 188 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: and I would attribute that also why he was so 189 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: good in the red zone because it's a tight niche area. 190 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 2: And in basketball, you gotta go get a rebound. Everyone's 191 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 2: right there. You got to box out. 192 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: You gotta use your body, and that's how you score 193 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: touchdowns in the red zone. That's why I was great there. 194 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: That's why Antonio Gates was great because you use your 195 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: body when you got size over these defenders and you 196 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: got to go up and grab that ball like it's 197 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: a rebound. Antonio Gates shirt did that. 198 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 2: You know what. 199 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 3: He's like a perfect storm of the basketball player that 200 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 3: came to football because in basketball he was undersized. He's 201 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,319 Speaker 3: six foot four, but if you watch him at Kent State, 202 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 3: he was banging with like the six ten dudes like 203 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 3: and he was a power, motherfucking forward that was physical, 204 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 3: that was athletic as fuck on the core. So he 205 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 3: was always undersized in basketball. When he got to the league, 206 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 3: he was always bigger than everyone, you know what I mean. 207 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 3: But he played with that undersize mentality from basketball when 208 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 3: he was like big with people, and it translated unbelievably 209 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 3: to the football field. I mean, he's he's some of 210 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 3: the inspiration we got with you. I remember specifically when 211 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 3: we used to put you out and extend you from 212 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 3: the formation. That was because of Antonio Gates. They used 213 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 3: to do that with him. And then when teams would 214 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 3: freaking gunner you, they used to gunner Antonio Gates, like 215 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 3: when they put this put him in the red area. 216 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 2: That's how elite he was. 217 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 3: And and he's a very cool dude from Detroit, Michigan. 218 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 3: And the stories about him on campus, like as a 219 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 3: basketball player or just elite, I mean they That's half 220 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 3: the reason why I went to Kent State is because 221 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 3: I I heard about them, like two years before when 222 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 3: he brought him to the Elite eight, I was like, 223 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 3: who the fuck is this small school? And then I 224 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 3: was getting recruited by Ken I was like, Oh, that 225 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 3: that team that made the crazy run with that insane 226 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 3: basketball player, that Antonio Gates guy who was already a 227 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 3: baller in the league by then. Like it's just it's 228 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 3: a crazy story. Certifiable Hall of Famer, no doubt about this. 229 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: And this says something about basketball players and tight ends, 230 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: because the guy that's number two on the list for 231 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: most touchdowns as a tight end as well isn't me, Jules, 232 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: isn't me, and it's Tony Gonzalez. Tony Gonzalez has one 233 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: hundred eleven all time TDS basketball player as well at California. Right, yes, 234 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: at California he knew how to transfer his basketball skills 235 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 1: to the football field as well. And then we got 236 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: other players as well. Jimmy Graham didn't play college football. 237 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,199 Speaker 1: While he did actually I think one year at the 238 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: University of Miami, but I don't even think he played 239 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: in high school that his game transferred into the NFL. 240 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: He knew how to use those bad that basketball skill 241 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: set and become dominant on the football field. So these guys, 242 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: the top tight ends that to score touchdowns, you know 243 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: in the NFL of all time all played basketball, including myself. 244 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: That's why I always tell these kids, Hey, parents ask me, Hey, 245 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: should my son just concentrate on a sport in high 246 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: school and middle school? 247 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 2: No? 248 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: Absolutely not play as many sports as you can possibly play, 249 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,439 Speaker 1: because you learn the different skill sets of these other 250 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 1: sports that can transfer to the other sport that you 251 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: want to really focus on once you get to college. 252 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: And also it's not just about the skill sets, it's 253 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: about the nature of the sport. It's about ethnicity of 254 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,719 Speaker 1: other players you know in other sports, and how to 255 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: work together as a team and come together as a team. 256 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: So play as many sports as possible. It will all 257 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: transfer and translate to life, you know eventually. So kids 258 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: do it all. You don't got to focus on a sport. Yes, 259 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: once you get to college do that, focus on one, 260 00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: but play it all as a kid. 261 00:11:59,400 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 262 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 3: Specialization of the kids right now. You know, for one sport, 263 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 3: it really does it doesn't it. When you play other sports. 264 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 3: I feel like it opens up different parts of your 265 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 3: brain that and you gain different techniques from different sports 266 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 3: that translate subconsciously to the one sport that you pick. Exactly, 267 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:27,719 Speaker 3: And that's exactly what Antonio Gates did exactly. He had 268 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 3: nine hundred and fifty five receptions, eleven thousand yards eight 269 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 3: hundred and forty one yards only trails Witten, Kelsey and 270 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 3: Gonzalez for. 271 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 2: Yards by a tight end for yards by a tight end, 272 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 2: and shout out. 273 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: To Antonio Gates as well. Just went to the Hall 274 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: of Fame this year.

You don't see basketball players that thick. 342 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: So that's why I probably translated to being a tight 343 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: end as well. 344 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 3: Uh. 345 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 2: I think being a dominant. 346 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 3: Blocker, I think I think one of them. I mean 347 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 3: if his road alone or is he a whiz? 348 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: I mean you got to be a whiz in order 349 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: to pick the game back up that quick, you know, 350 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: and understand. You know, there's more that goes into the 351 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: game of football. You got to understand awareness of where 352 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: everyone is. You gotta understand. I think he plays where 353 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: the defense is situated and all that, So you got 354 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: to be very smart. 355 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 2: He didn't play college football. 356 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 3: He came in and he fucking took the like he 357 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 3: was young, like as an undrafted guy, and like came 358 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 3: in like that and made plays. 359 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: And he I mean he was innovative, like he really was. 360 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: He innovated the position, the tight end position, and he 361 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: was very clutch in many moments. And what makes him 362 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: smart too, is the end of his career. I mean, 363 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie like he didn't look like he 364 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: could he could move that well. But the guy was 365 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: so smart that he could get in the situations where 366 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: he would get open still because he understood the defense 367 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: in the coverage and he would just sit and then boom, 368 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: he would just get a pass fed to him and 369 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 1: then he would go out. They put the other tight 370 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: end in and then he would. 371 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 2: Come back in. 372 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: And every time he's in to use his body, he 373 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: knew how to use that body. He was just so 374 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: smart with him. 375 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 2: And he on three? What is he he's on two? Three? 376 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 2: Whiz he's got to be. 377 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 3: It's just it's so remarkable that this guy didn't play 378 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 3: it down in college and then literally was getting gunners. 379 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 3: He was getting a gunner set. And what a gunner 380 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 3: set is on punt you usually have two guys on 381 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 3: on the gunner to block for punt. Well, they were 382 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 3: doing that to Antonio Gates by in his prime at 383 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 3: the Red Area, which they you know, they used to 384 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 3: do with Gronk as well. Like that's crazy, that's a whiz. 385 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 3: He was revolutionary. Hey man, anton Anthony gonz or Tony Gonzalez. 386 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,719 Speaker 3: We'll be right back after this quick break. 387 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 2: All right, let's get on to the next guy.

And now let's see who 392 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: this guy is. Hopefully people know who this guy is 393 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: as well. You know, it's gonna be tough to top 394 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: Antonio Gates. So let's see how this guy can possibly 395 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 1: top Gates. Standing at six foot five, having two hundred 396 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: and sixty five pounds, this former that's big size. That's 397 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 1: a big size tight end right there. This former tight 398 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: end was drafted in the third round of the nineteen 399 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: ninety nine draft out of Texas A and M. He's 400 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: known for his toughness and leadership abilities. Growing up in Texas, 401 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: he starred at Glenn Rose High School, earning all district 402 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: honors and a reputation for his grittiness. Oh you think 403 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: he did the gritty in nineteen ninety nine. Yeah, no, 404 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 1: it It wasn't around yet, but he had greediness. In 405 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: twenty ten, he transitioned into coaching and is known for 406 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: his motivational speeches and aggressive play calling. In twenty twenty one, 407 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: he was hired as the head coach of the Detroit Lions. 408 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: Let's get on Dan Campbell, Ladies and gentlemen. 409 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 2: Dan Campbell. 410 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: Dan Campbell, I was saying, can he compare to Antonio Gates, 411 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: you know, with the name out there still played back 412 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: in the day, And he sure does, but in a 413 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 1: whole different style. Now. You know, he's not knowing Antonio 414 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: Gates as a player, but his toughness and his wizardness 415 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: of how smart of a full players has transferred into 416 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 1: the next stage of his life. And his name is 417 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: still very valuable because he is now the head coach 418 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,160 Speaker 1: of the Detroit Lions and his legacy lives on. These 419 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: tight ends are just so great. I love going over 420 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 1: tight ends. It's National tight end Week. Everyone just appreciate 421 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 1: the position don't even look at wide receivers this week. 422 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 1: Don't look at running backs, don't even look at quarterbacks. 423 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: It's all about the tight ends. 424 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 2: Baby. 425 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 3: I never knew of him as a player, No, I 426 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 3: mean either, I didn't I but he played would, he 427 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 3: played along. He played a long ass time, so he 428 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 3: had to have something. If you look at his stats 429 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,400 Speaker 3: when he had ninety one receptions, nine and thirty four 430 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 3: yards eleven touchdowns, which tolls you he must have been 431 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 3: elite in the in the run game. 432 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,400 Speaker 1: Yes, tough, tough, tough as now is. You can tell 433 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: the way that he coaches the Detroit Lions and that 434 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: energy he brings to the table and that toughness, you know, 435 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: the toughness manner that he brings to that team in 436 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: the mindset. 437 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 2: That's how he played as a player. 438 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: And I didn't hear about him as a player either, 439 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: But I went back to watch his High Life film 440 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: and I just love the way that he represents himself 441 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 1: on the field. When he gets that ball, it's just 442 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 1: full go. You know, it's hard to tackle him. He's 443 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: just bouncing off of guys. He's just trying to make plays. 444 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 1: He's excited, he's bringing energy to the team. He must 445 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: have been a heck of a blocker as well, because 446 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: he played ten years in the NFL, bounced on a 447 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: couple teams, but the grittiness that he brought as a 448 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: player was unmatched. He would be a great compliment if 449 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 1: it was like him and I on the field. I 450 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: would love to have a dude that was behind me, 451 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 1: just bringing juice and getting me going. 452 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 453 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 3: I mean something be said about a guy that doesn't 454 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 3: have crazy stats, And if you watch how he played, 455 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 3: it looked like he was like having the time of 456 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 3: his life, no matter what the team has him to do, Yes, 457 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 3: And that's how he coaches. And I think that's why 458 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 3: a lot of guys resonate towards him, because he's an 459 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 3: ultra team first kind of guy. 460 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 2: Everyone knows their role. He knew his role as a player. 461 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 3: If everyone has their role and everyone takes pride in 462 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 3: their role, that's how you have good teams. And that's 463 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 3: what they've developed over there in Detroit. Came from he 464 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 3: was coached by Parcels with the Cowboys. Came from Sean 465 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 3: Payton's coaching tree, So he's got toughness, old school coaching 466 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 3: in his background. And if those guys loved him. You 467 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 3: knew that he was probably a really good team guy. 468 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 3: Locker room guy for sure. 469 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, as a player and a coach obviously, locker room guy, grinder, 470 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: great size, good blocker, tough in the run game. That's 471 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,959 Speaker 1: kind of like his scouting report as a player, just 472 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 1: tough as now's it's kind of like the mentality that 473 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 1: he's bringing to Detroit as well as the head coach, 474 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 1: and then the scouting report. 475 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 2: I mean, he's kind of amped it up. Actually was. 476 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 2: He had brought. 477 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 1: Great energy as a player, but I think he even 478 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: took it to a whole other level as a coach. 479 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 1: He's intense, authentic. That's what I really love about him 480 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: is that the stuff that he's doing, it's not for show. 481 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 1: It's because it's him. And that's why it's where and 482 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 1: that's why he authenticy is everything jewels to a lot 483 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 1: of things. And that's why Detroit is kind of where 484 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 1: Detroit is now because he's so authentic in his approach 485 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: and how he wants to run the team and how 486 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 1: all he wants to coach the team. Very passionate, very aggressive. 487 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 1: It's not like he's being aggressive because people are telling 488 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: him it's because it's authentic once again, and he wants 489 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: to be aggressive. And also he's a hard knocks legend man. 490 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 1: He brought all that entertainment not just in the meeting rooms, 491 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 1: but he let everyone see it in public eyes on 492 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: hard knocks. 493 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 3: He definitely eats, breathe sleeps football. You can tell that, 494 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 3: and that's what you want to see from your fucking coach. 495 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 2: You know, it's it's real. The team. 496 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 3: It's been so fun to watch the Detroit Lion since 497 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 3: he became the head coach. And it started out terribly 498 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 3: so like for people like Aaron Glenn and the Jets, 499 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 3: if you can get that culture established, which you know 500 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 3: the Jets are a long way from that, but I'm 501 00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 3: just saying like, there's it takes time for things to happen, 502 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 3: and thank god Detroit gave him the time and the 503 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 3: team feeded off, fed off him through those first few years. 504 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,359 Speaker 3: First couple of years, I think they started like oh 505 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 3: to nine or something. He didn't win a game for 506 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 3: a long time. Own sixteen No, no, no, no. 507 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: He was on the own sixteen Own sixteen team when 508 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 1: he was playing as a player with the Detroit Lions, 509 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: and then he became the head coach eventually a couple 510 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 1: of years later, and then I think they went like 511 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: one in fifteen or one in two and fourteen or something. 512 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 2: So he's been through. 513 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: The darkest, darkest days of the Lions franchise. So how 514 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: much do you think he has learned on how to 515 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: bounce back from such a program being so low to 516 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 1: now being where it is. I mean, he's probably learned 517 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 1: so many tricks and traits to grind out of that 518 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: hole to become, you know, a good franchise. 519 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 3: I think being in those situations as a player definitely 520 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:03,439 Speaker 3: helped him player and coach and coach. I think I 521 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 3: think it's a little bit of everything. I think that 522 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 3: you know, him being with Sean Payton and learning real coach, 523 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 3: and him being coached by you know, coach Parcels, and 524 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 3: then him experiencing the loss. He's seeing what good is 525 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 3: and he's seen what real is, and so to be 526 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 3: in that situation, I think it was like the perfect 527 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 3: storm for Dan Campbell, which you know from that opening 528 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 3: day press conference, you know when when he said he 529 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 3: was gonna take people's knees out. When he goes, what 530 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 3: is it We're gonna kick kick you in. We're gonna 531 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:41,959 Speaker 3: kick you in the teeth. 532 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 2: We're in. 533 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 3: When you punch us back, we're gonna smile at you. 534 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 3: And when you knock us down, we're gonna get up. 535 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 3: And on the way up, we're gonna bite a knee. 536 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 3: Cap off like that was. Looking back now, you're like, yeah, 537 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 3: that's Dan Campbell. But from that point on people didn't 538 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,360 Speaker 3: take him serious. And it's been real fun to watch 539 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 3: him prove a lot of people wrong with the narrative 540 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 3: that he went into with starting his career and where 541 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 3: they are now. 542 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: Well, whenever someone comes in with a new mindset that's 543 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 1: never really been seen before, and I'm talking about anything 544 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: in life, Yeah, like any aspect, any business, any category 545 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: of life where it's something new and different. You know, 546 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: people always doubt it because you have absolutely no clue 547 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,120 Speaker 1: if it's going to work. Sometimes it tanks tremendously. And 548 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: in order to prove everyone wrong, you have to prove 549 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: you have to be right, you know, and get to 550 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: where you need to get to to get those daughters 551 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 1: to be believers. And that's what Dan Campbell did with 552 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: his approach and his aggressiveness being with the Detroit Lions, 553 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: like everyone's a believer now, like, hey, it's fourth down, 554 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: let's go for It's Dan Campbell before everyone was questioning him, Hey, 555 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: should they go for it? He's taking too many risks. 556 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,719 Speaker 1: He may be still taking too many risks in some situations, 557 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: but that's just him. But everyone's like, let's do it, 558 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: let's do it. We love this approach. It works. 559 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 2: We were all in sixteen at one time. Like this guy. 560 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: We got fourteen wins this season. We're all in, let's 561 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: go for it. Let's take the risks. How about a 562 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: Starbucks order? Ridiculous two venti Starbucks. Pike plays coffees each 563 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: with two shots of espressos an approximately eleven hundred milligrams 564 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 1: of caffeine. I think that's right before is eight o'clock meeting. 565 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: I just don't know what to say about that. Like, 566 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: if I was on a thousand millions, he probably sweat. Yeah, 567 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: he must love SNAs just sweat it out. 568 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 3: No, he just sweats because he's got so many stimulants. Yeah, 569 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 3: and because I sweat a lot. If I drink a 570 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 3: lot of coffee and I throw in a chaw, yeah, yeah, 571 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 3: it's uh, that's that's serious. 572 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 1: I don't know what would happen if I had a 573 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: thousand milligrams of caffeine. I mean my max is like 574 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: like four hundred. What's your coffee order? Usually like just 575 00:26:58,320 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: a small hot black coffee. 576 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. I like black coffee too. I like night true. 577 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 2: I will go like a cold brew, oh, Nigel colbrew 578 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 2: when you really need to get going. Oh yeah, delicious. 579 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 2: I don't think it tastes great. I just like to 580 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 2: get the caffeine. No coffee. Yeah, no, it never will 581 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 2: taste great when it's just straight black. 582 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 3: Do you think he got super sad when the NFL 583 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,719 Speaker 3: wouldn't provide smelling salts anymore. Uh? 584 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: He was probably the main reason why he, like the 585 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 1: NFL came back out and was like, actually, you are 586 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 1: allowed to have smelling salts, We're just not. 587 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,239 Speaker 2: Allowed to provide them. Yeah. He might have been one 588 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 2: of the guys behind it. Damn brother. 589 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 3: What's his voice saying? Is he gonna bring a Super 590 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 3: Bowl to Detroit? 591 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 1: I hope so, Man, I think Detroit deserves a Super Bowl. 592 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 1: I mean Detroit. The thing is, man with him, like, 593 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: you can't hate on them. Last year there wasn't a team, 594 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: or there wasn't a fan that I know of a 595 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: team where they're not fans of Detroit, where they hated 596 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: on Detroit. 597 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:53,120 Speaker 2: No one did. 598 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 1: Everyone was cheering for Detroit if their team was out 599 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: didn't make the playoffs. Everyone was like, Hey, Detroit Lions, 600 00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 1: I want to see them win it, Dan Campbell, everyone 601 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: a fan of Detroit's never won a super Bowl. They 602 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 1: never been to a super Bowl, So I was cheering 603 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: for them last year. Unfortunately, they had so many injuries 604 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: that it's tough to win a super Bowl and playoff 605 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: games when you got you know, twelve starters out. I mean, 606 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: it's just reality. I mean the kind of usually the 607 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: healthiest team wins in the end, the healthiest and best 608 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: team wins. So I think he possibly does bring a 609 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: super Bowl. I think I think he does. I want 610 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 1: him to bring. 611 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,360 Speaker 2: A super Bowl to Detroit. That would be cool to see. 612 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 2: That would be cool. 613 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 3: You know, I'm I'm in the same boat with you. 614 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 3: You know, hopefully they can get one here. That would 615 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 3: be I think that'd be great for the league. 616 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 1: It would be great for the league, it would be 617 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: great for eminem and it would be great for Detroit, 618 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: Ink City of Detroit, and Ford and Ford. 619 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 3: Cars missus Ford.

That's a great question, and that's a tough 697 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: question because it's so easy to name the best like 698 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 1: receiving tight ends, because that's all the glory, it's in 699 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: the papers, it's all the highlights. But I'm gonna go 700 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: with our guy Dan Campbell, who we just reviewed. That's 701 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: why he played ten years in the league. Current guy 702 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: George Kittle, he's so good at blocking as well as 703 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 1: being a pass catcher. The most complete tight end in 704 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: the game right now. Mike Dicka, he he was fierce 705 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: out there, and I'm gonna give you, give you one more. 706 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with. 707 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: Myself as well. I love blocking, I love blocking. I 708 00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: took pride in it. So I'm gonna put myself up 709 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 1: there as a fourth. 710 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 3: Perfect all right, Well, what's an underrated trait the best 711 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 3: tight ends have. 712 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 1: There's an underrated trait, but it's becoming more popular now, 713 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: is that tight ends have the most fun on the 714 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 1: football field, that we bring the most joy to the game. 715 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: I mean, you see George Kittle play, You see Travis 716 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: Kelsey play, myself playing. Every time Jewels you talked about, oh, 717 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: Robert catch a ball up the middle, he'd be laughing, 718 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 1: and granted he would. 719 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 2: And yes, there we go. See there's evidence. I'm not 720 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 2: lying here, folks. 721 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: There's evidence to this proof that we have the best 722 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 1: personalities as well. What we got to do both, so 723 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 1: you got to have great personality. Want to know why? 724 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: Why is that? 725 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 3: It's because linemen are like the greatest group of dudes 726 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 3: on the team, and skilled dudes are usually the cool dudes. 727 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 3: You know, they're hybrids, so they're like the nicest, coolest 728 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 3: dudes with like you know, they're like the funnest group. 729 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 3: But they're half that but also like part cool. 730 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 2: That is why. All right? 731 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: That is that is one hundred correct again, Jules, thank 732 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 1: you for explaining that temper. 733 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 2: I was wondering why else tight ends were so cool too? Exactly. Yeah, 734 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 2: thank you. I appreciate that. 735 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 3: All right, are there any young tight ends whose game 736 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 3: you've been loving? 737 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 2: Oh? Yes, he's a rookie. 738 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 1: Right now, I'm gonna go h I know you know 739 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 1: who it is, so I kind of want to switch 740 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 1: it up on you now and say someone else, but 741 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with him still. 742 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:23,280 Speaker 2: Ty Warren. 743 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:26,319 Speaker 1: He's doing a great job for Indianapolis Colts. He's been 744 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: phenomenal this year and he's been scoring touchdowns. He's been 745 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: gronk spiking it as well, and he gronks spikes with 746 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,439 Speaker 1: his left hand lefty. I mean, I got the great 747 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 1: him last week. There's a new thing now. It's the 748 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 1: gronk spike scale on Fox on Sundays, and Ty Warren 749 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 1: was the first guy got the gronks spike and he 750 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,720 Speaker 1: got an extra point because he gronks spike lefty. 751 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 2: What if he's a lefty? 752 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: Hey, you're just getting a plus one every time. Because 753 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 1: he's a lefty and you never really see a Gronk 754 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: spike lefty. So if you spike lefty too, and if 755 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,840 Speaker 1: you're not, it's always plus one. Now I make the rules, 756 00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,720 Speaker 1: and no one else can change the rules. 757 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 2: Rule are rules. 758 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: So Ty Warren, that's all we got to talk about 759 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 1: is only him. We don't need to talk about any 760 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,360 Speaker 1: other young tight ends right now. We know brock Bauers 761 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 1: is great, but we're he's been banged up. Tywar is 762 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: the real deal right now. He's my favorite young buck. 763 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 3: All right, all right, all right, who's all right? Who's 764 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:22,439 Speaker 3: going to have the best day on National tight End Day? 765 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:22,919 Speaker 2: Oh? 766 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 3: Like the best the best statistical day for all out 767 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 3: all the tight ends? 768 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 2: National Titan Here we go. 769 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Green Bay Pokers tight end 770 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: Tucker Kraft. I'm going Tucker Craft because he goes off 771 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 1: every once in a while, and this is the time 772 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: he needs to go off. Because I'm predicting him to 773 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: go off for National tight Ends Day. Uh you know, 774 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: they didn't really have that great of an offensive game 775 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 1: last week. Uh so I think that since they didn't 776 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: have a great offensive game, that Jordan Love and the 777 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 1: Tucker Craft connection is going to go off. I don't 778 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 1: even know who they're playing. I'm just saying Tucker Craft 779 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: is going to come. He has big games every once 780 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: in a while. He's a hard nosed player, he really is. 781 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,680 Speaker 1: He's a true title he loves blocking, he has grit, 782 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 1: and he's hired to take down once he gets the 783 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 1: ball in his hands. So I'm going with under the 784 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,800 Speaker 1: radar guy Tucker Kraft to put up the most statistics 785 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: on national tight end. 786 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 2: I like that. I like that. I like that. 787 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 3: And then lastly, I've always been kind of curious because I 788 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,359 Speaker 3: never had the big size speeder hand size of you. 789 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, I got big hands, jewels. I was just born 790 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:31,760 Speaker 1: with them. So you know, who would you be jealous 791 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: of something that I was just born with? 792 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 2: I know? But who? 793 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 3: Who would you rather be covered by a safety, a 794 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 3: corner or a linebacker. 795 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 1: I'm covered by this cors layer now because it's in 796 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 1: my mouth. It's covering my whole mouth. That's why it's 797 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: the chill zone. Yeah, it feels it feels good because 798 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: it's chill. And I was sweating in here because Dan 799 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 1: Campbell has so much caffeine that I started sweating for him. 800 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,799 Speaker 2: This cors light is chilling me out right now. Oh 801 00:36:57,880 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 2: what was the question again? 802 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 3: Who would you rather be covered by us? In the 803 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 3: lead tight end? Tall, a safety, a corner, or a linebacker. 804 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 1: You know, it's a situational here, I mean, and when 805 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: you got a legit, legit linebacker who knows how to cover, 806 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: I would rather get covered by a safety who is 807 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 1: less legit. You know, A corner where I would say 808 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 1: would be the hardest because they can always stay up 809 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 1: on me. But a tall corner was super super tough. 810 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,399 Speaker 1: A small corner, even though they're faster, I can use 811 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,959 Speaker 1: my size in my body. A linebacker I can usually 812 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 1: always run by. But then every once in a while 813 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 1: there's a linebacker that is actually athletic enough to cover me, 814 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 1: and that makes it tough because he's bigger. And when 815 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 1: they can cover you, I can't use my size because 816 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 1: then they have size. So I loved when a safety 817 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,720 Speaker 1: came down who was kind of slower as a safety, 818 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:46,919 Speaker 1: a slower cover safety. So if it's a linebacker who's 819 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: who's fast and athletic with size, don't like a corner 820 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 1: that's more tall. I don't care if they're small. I 821 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: can bully them. If they're tall and they're more built stronger, 822 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: those are tough on me. And then safeties, you know 823 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: kind of like like there's you know, they're usually slower, 824 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 1: you know, that's why they're playing safety. They can't run 825 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,680 Speaker 1: for safe. Yeah, it's tough for safeties to cover. So 826 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: but if in the end in space, in the end, 827 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: out of any anyone I would have to draw up, 828 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 1: who I would love to be covered by is one 829 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: of defensive end drops and has to cover me. 830 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 2: That was my favorite. I got open every single time. Ninkovich. Yeah, 831 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 2: like Rob ninkovitch perfect. 832 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 1: Like he he I want to be who I was 833 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: about Rob Ninkov asked him. I was one hundred percent 834 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,879 Speaker 1: completion rate against him in training camp my second year, 835 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 1: and that's where I got like this confidence up and 836 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 1: like it was. 837 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 2: It was. It was great. 838 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: I thank him and he even takes credit for my 839 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,840 Speaker 1: career as well because of that. We we appreciate you, Ninko. 840 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: But he did knock my head off on the in 841 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 1: the run game like fifty times. We appreciate you, but 842 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 1: my head still on, so he actually technically didn't knock 843 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 1: it off. 844 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 3: So he didn't knock it off.
