I was always looking 94 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 5: at the NFL, and you know, trying to figure out 95 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 5: who I could pattern my game after who looked like me. 96 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 5: You know, that guy just happened to be a white 97 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 5: quarterback who was left handed. They be like, yeah, so 98 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 5: you know Cam and Jalen and Dak, they was all 99 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 5: fortunate to have guys like myself, and you know Donovan 100 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 5: McNabb and you know Jeff Blake and you know Steve McNair. 101 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 5: You know, these guys were, you know, very influential in 102 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 5: our lives and watched everything they do step for step 103 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 5: or they did step for step and just wanted to 104 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 5: emulate what they brung to the field. So to hit 105 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 5: them say that, it's really an honor because I didn't 106 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 5: play the game in the beginning to be a role model. 107 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 5: And I'll be honest about that. I didn't understand that concept. 108 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 5: I was just trying to be the best quarterback that 109 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 5: I could be. But you know, as you grow older 110 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 5: and you started to meet people, and you start to 111 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 5: have football camps, and you know guys like Malik Willis 112 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 5: who came through my camps and you see watch them 113 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 5: ball yesterday. 114 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 3: For Green Bay. 115 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 5: It's like, damn, you know, we really influenced the generation 116 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 5: that come behind us. So you know, I I'm glad 117 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 5: I was able to embrace it as I got older, 118 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 5: And you know, it goes to show that these guys 119 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 5: watched us and they followed us and they're doing it 120 00:05:58,320 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 5: the right way. 121 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 4: Talk about the evolution, and you know, previously a black 122 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 4: quarterback was an anomaly. Most of the quarterbacks were white, 123 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 4: and there was racial undertones for that as far as 124 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 4: quarterback is the leader of the team, seen as the 125 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 4: most intelligent person a coach on the field. So that 126 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 4: was a stereotype for a long time. And then it 127 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 4: was when black quarterbacks actually did become more popular, it 128 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 4: was only seen as like, well, they'd have to be 129 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 4: a super athletic, right, But now we're seeing a wife 130 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 4: or right. Some quarterbacks are super athletics, some are not 131 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 4: as athletics, Some can throw, some run. So talk about 132 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 4: like from you growing up as a kid to you 133 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 4: being an NFL analyst now, the evolution of how the 134 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 4: game has looked at the black quarterback. 135 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 5: No doubt. As a kid, always heard story is about 136 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 5: the NFL being so complex, like the offense is are 137 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,839 Speaker 5: hard to learn, and you know, you know it was 138 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 5: always this stereotype that you know, maybe we couldn't pick 139 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 5: the system up fast enough. I know, you know, it 140 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 5: was something that scared me and made me kind of 141 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 5: deterred me from wanting to pursue playing quarterback. And that's 142 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 5: why I started out at running back. You know, I'm 143 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 5: not really trying to get into that. You know, I'm 144 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 5: a young man and I'm hearing all these things and 145 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 5: I'm like, that's going to derail my chances of making it. 146 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 5: And you know, I just I had a coach that 147 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 5: you know, believed in me, kept pushing me in and 148 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 5: like spent a lot of years feeling like I was 149 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 5: playing a quarterback position for no reason that at some 150 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 5: point I would my position would change. And you know, 151 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 5: I wasted all this time trying to become a quarterback 152 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 5: and the best quarterback that I could be, and you know, 153 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 5: it was just it was it was really tough on 154 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 5: my mental my mental health as far as like you know, 155 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 5: when you're a kid and you expiring to be something, 156 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 5: you only get to do that once and it's not 157 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 5: like that like that don't fluctuate, that don't change like 158 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 5: one day I want to. 159 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 3: Be a professional football player. 160 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 5: In the next day, I want to be a professional 161 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 5: basketball player.

I was like and making this doc 175 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 5: a part of me wanted to find out, like back 176 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 5: in you know, the seventies, was the offense is really 177 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 5: that complay X where a black quarterback couldn't really understand it, 178 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 5: you know, a Marlin Brisco or Jefferson Street Joe. Was 179 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 5: it really so sophisticated that they couldn't lead and they 180 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 5: couldn't compartmentalize all. 181 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 3: These things and run a team. 182 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 5: And so those questions I wanted to get answered in 183 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 5: this dock. I feel like it's still a lot left 184 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 5: to talk about from a standpoint of just gaining an 185 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 5: understanding of how we got to this point, because now 186 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 5: you know those offense League Willis, but Malik Willis got 187 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 5: was with Tennessee and a different obviously a different offense 188 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 5: than Green Bay. 189 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 3: He goes to Green Bay. 190 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 5: Two weeks ago, three weeks ago, he picks this system up. 191 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 5: In three weeks he goes out and win two games 192 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 5: in two weeks. 193 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 3: Well, how complex is it from? 194 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 4: Because I always I played basketball my whole life, and 195 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 4: to me, football was a lot more complicated than complex. 196 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 4: And that's one of the reason why and stop playing football, 197 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 4: because it was you gotta really love it to really 198 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 4: get into the schemes and all of that. And then 199 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 4: you see these quarterbacks with these things on their arm 200 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 4: and then violence. 201 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 3: He left that part out and is violent. That's that's amazing. 202 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 5: But I try not to say that because I don't 203 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 5: like try to. 204 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 4: So, But how how hard is it to act from 205 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 4: from a mental standpoint to master that? 206 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 3: Because it's like a college course in sense it takes time. 207 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 5: I will say that, and I'm gonna continue the reference 208 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 5: Miliite because he's just like fresh on my mind. Malik 209 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 5: goes from Tennessee to Green Bay and it takes him 210 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 5: maybe two weeks. They probably condensed it down, couldn't give 211 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 5: him the whole playbook. He got a smart coach choose 212 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,199 Speaker 5: catering to his talents and you know, I'm not going 213 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 5: to throw the whole playbook at. 214 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 3: You all in one in two weeks and it helped. 215 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 5: But those offenses take learning a new offense at least 216 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 5: three and a half months. I say, before you can 217 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 5: be comfortable going out in the field of executing without 218 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 5: giving the game away, doing interceptions or putting the ball 219 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 5: in harm's way. And so you know, all these things 220 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 5: got to come together, and it just creates anxiety. You know, 221 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 5: when you're not comfortable. When you're comfortable and you know 222 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 5: what you're doing, it's a lot easier. And so I 223 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 5: will say this quarterbacks now when they come into the league, 224 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 5: they've worked for so many years with quarterback coaches and 225 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 5: went to all these camps and like Mlik Willis came 226 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 5: to my camp in twenty eighteen, twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, 227 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 5: won the MVP. He was transferred from Auburn, and so 228 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 5: I'm not taking any credit for what but understanding like 229 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 5: he got off good tootlage that day. You know what 230 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,079 Speaker 5: I'm saying From a mental standpoint, I remember talking to 231 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 5: him about, you know, while he was transferring and like 232 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 5: his quarterback journey because you know, usually when it guy transferring, 233 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 5: something's not right. 234 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 3: He ended up at Memphis, he ended up at Liberty, Liberty, Liberty, 235 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 3: and why he killed it. He killed it at Liberty, 236 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 3: and then it was so on and so far. 237 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 5: The supposed to be in the first round pick winning 238 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 5: the third, but you know, you see first round talent. 239 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 6: So this this is interesting because we could stay with 240 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 6: Elik because yes, he grasped the system and they condensed it. 241 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 6: But he's playing behind Jordan Love. Yeah, when you talk 242 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 6: about Jordan Love, you talk about c. J. Stroud, You're 243 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 6: talking about Jay and Daniels Now with Commanders. As I'm watching, 244 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 6: I thought another guy was about Jay. I'm watching this 245 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 6: and I'm thinking to myself and maybe you feel this way. 246 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 6: I feel like you're the most important black quarterback in 247 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 6: the history of the NFL. Eighty seven is important Doug Williams, 248 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 6: but we watched him growing up. 249 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, as you you talk about the Super. 250 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 6: Bowl two years ago, we would ask you at the 251 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 6: game jailing versus pat first time two black quarterbacks are 252 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,719 Speaker 6: playing together in the Super Bowl against each other in 253 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 6: the Super Bowl. That was cool, a culminated moment. You're 254 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 6: looking at the league. Almost every division has a starting 255 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:07,679 Speaker 6: black quarterback, most of Lamar winning two MVPs. That's all 256 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 6: after you played. Yeah, as you're doing it and you're 257 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,719 Speaker 6: coming to completion, are you are you start? Because I 258 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 6: think somebody referenced it like you are the most important? 259 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 6: Do you feel that way? 260 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 5: I'm starting to and I'm embracing it, especially after this 261 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 5: quarterback series, And haven't these conversations with all these guys 262 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 5: who we all went through our fair chef the now 263 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 5: trial and tribulation and came out on the other side 264 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 5: of it, some a little more worse than others. I 265 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 5: feel like through my quarterback journey, it was only one 266 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 5: or two moments where I felt like. 267 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 3: I might have been stereotype. 268 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 5: But that might have come from some of my own people, 269 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:56,959 Speaker 5: of my color, black people, And it was weird, you 270 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,439 Speaker 5: know what I'm saying. Never had a really had a 271 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 5: white coach tell me like Yo, you to change your position. 272 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 5: So I felt like I came up in a different 273 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 5: era where the belief was there at the time where 274 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 5: it was changing a little bit because of a lot 275 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 5: of these coaches who coached College Boy. They were seeing 276 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 5: Kevin McDougall and Donovan McNabb and they was Charlie Ward. 277 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 5: So from a collegiate standpoint, Yo, you can do it 278 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 5: right here. Next level, you know it's going to take 279 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 5: some decision making, and then you know, the higher ups administration, owners, 280 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 5: general managers, coaches got to make that decision in the NFL. 281 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 5: And in part of doing this doc as I thought 282 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 5: through it, because I felt like, you know, you had to. 283 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 5: It took critical thinking that you just can't make an 284 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 5: evolution of the black quarterback series and not have merit 285 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 5: behind it why you're doing it. And so I really 286 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 5: feel like owners, general managers, the commissioner over the years, 287 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 5: Paul tag Libu, Roger Goodell, they all had a major 288 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 5: part in the evolution of the game in the quarterback 289 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 5: position and why we got so many dual threats because 290 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 5: they had to make those decisions, y'all. I trust you, 291 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 5: Jayden Dames, I trust you jaylen Hurst. I trust you, 292 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 5: Mike Vick. I trust you. 293 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 4: But then also I feel like, so this parallels from 294 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 4: you coming from Newport News and somebody else coming from 295 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 4: Newport News. 296 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 3: You number seven, somebody number three. 297 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 4: His part as what he did is you revolutionized it 298 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 4: from a hip hop perspective too, Like even when you 299 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 4: were in Virginia Tech and I felt like there was 300 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 4: other black quarterbacks before that, but you put the stamp 301 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 4: for like hip hop culture, going to Atlanta, being in 302 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 4: t I's video and swag. 303 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 3: And that's the same Like Ai kind of was the 304 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 3: same tool. 305 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 4: Like as far as what he did to the league, 306 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 4: he obviously wasn't the first black superstar, but he's the 307 00:15:55,160 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 4: first one with the tattoos, the corn rolls, the baggy clothes. 308 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 4: Was like then that ushered into hip hop era. So 309 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 4: what about how you feel about that as far as 310 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 4: you bringing in that wave of hip hop. 311 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 3: Culture for the for the black quarterback position. 312 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 5: One that started with Alan. You know what I'm saying. 313 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 5: Alan was big bro. So we all watched for Alan. 314 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 4: You know, I'm growing up. Yeah, he was a hell 315 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 4: of a quarterback. Yeah, he was a great quarterbacks. 316 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 5: Player the Year, Yeah, Player of the Year basketball and 317 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 5: then when he went through what he went through, it 318 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 5: was like a really dark time for me because I 319 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 5: was like following his every move and then he come back, 320 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 5: he do all these amazing things, and you know, now 321 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 5: he's just cultural icon, big brother, uh, somebody that we 322 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 5: can look up to and somebody that we can the 323 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 5: strive to be like. 324 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 3: And so that was really cool. 325 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 5: And it's all right to have a guy like Alan, 326 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying, represent Virginia, you know what 327 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 5: I'm saying, and show its mad love at the same time. 328 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 5: So a lot of what I did from a cultural standpoint, 329 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 5: I following you know, a big bro. And you know, 330 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 5: it was just it was a great moment in a 331 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 5: great time in sports. You know who whatever thought it 332 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 5: looked like I said, it was entertainment, bro. Like what 333 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 5: I A big reason why people gravitated to me and 334 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 5: Island is because we. 335 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 3: We did it different. We did it at a faster pace. 336 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 5: We made it look cool while we was doing it, 337 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 5: even though that's super hard like it was. But that's 338 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 5: you know, the type of you know intensity we brung 339 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 5: to the game, the love we brung to the game. 340 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 5: You can't be great at anything if you don't love it. Yeah, 341 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 5: and so I love football from the bottom of my heart. 342 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 5: From the time I got selected by Atlanta It My 343 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 5: love for the game just grew. When I was at 344 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 5: Virginia Tech, I was learning to play quarterback and learning 345 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 5: how to you know, lead a football team, you know, 346 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 5: from the time to be kicked off until the time 347 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 5: the game was over. 348 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 3: Do you realize did you realize that in real time? Though? 349 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 4: Like, yo, I'm the one that's pushing the culture forward 350 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 4: in this position or is it just happening organically organically? 351 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 3: I couldn't see it. I didn't realize it. 352 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 5: But you know, I was a kid from Newport News, 353 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 5: Virginia who didn't come up with anything. My mom did 354 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 5: the best she could, my dad did the best she could. 355 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 5: And it wasn't a life where I just had everything 356 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 5: I wanted or what I wanted it to be. Like 357 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 5: like I had family members who had everything, and you know, 358 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 5: I used to have to go to their house and 359 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,479 Speaker 5: we had to go there to eat and play with 360 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 5: his my cousin's toys, and it was just a you know, togetherness, 361 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,959 Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. But I felt like I 362 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,719 Speaker 5: was always in a state where I was probably just 363 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 5: a little bit hungrier literally than everybody around me. You 364 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 5: know what I'm saying, Not necessarily my friends, but you know, 365 00:18:54,960 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 5: sometimes family. But that's what made me dream hard, and 366 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 5: that's what made me want to go for that goal. 367 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 3: And man, I was growing up. 368 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 5: Like at least I'm gonna shoot for the stars and 369 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 5: if I miss, I'm amongst them. 370 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 4: Leave it at that, you know what I'm saying. Last 371 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:14,199 Speaker 4: question before you answer Nuggert? How good was Could he 372 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 4: have made it to the NBA to the NFL? Of 373 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 4: course he could have made the NFL as a quarterback. 374 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 5: He would have to walk up a little bit, he 375 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 5: had to put on some weight because Alan, he's not 376 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:25,199 Speaker 5: the biggest. But I mean as far as athleticism, he 377 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 5: could have played any position. 378 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 3: He could throw like, yeah he was. Was he faster 379 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 3: than you want to field? Yeah, it's faster than Yeah, 380 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 3: he was a fellow. 381 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 5: I was more quick than fast Alan just Allen just 382 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 5: had that long speed and he was quick like he 383 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 5: had everything. So without a doubt, like he would have. 384 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 5: I envisioned him looking like Charlie Ward in college. 385 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 3: That's a sensitive topic. 386 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 6: Man, Yeah, shot at the f s U. I want 387 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 6: to talk about the importance of the city of Atlanta, 388 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 6: because that I mean, obviously black city. You were coming 389 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 6: in with a news of play, Dan Reeves being your coach, different. 390 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 3: Style of play. 391 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 6: This guy just coached John Elway, right, that that's what 392 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 6: he's known for. 393 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 3: Then he has a new number seven. 394 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 6: Talk about the role of the city of Atlanta embracing 395 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 6: you that number seven, which I think should be retired. 396 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 3: There's two numbers I think should be retired in Falcons history. 397 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 6: One for sure, Yeah, talk about the role that the 398 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 6: city played in embracing you and getting catapulting you to 399 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 6: a superstar stass. But now you got to shoe you 400 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 6: a cover guy on Madden, which was a cheek coode. 401 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,479 Speaker 5: But talk about that. I mean, everything I did was 402 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 5: to please the city. From the time I got selected. 403 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 5: Five minutes later, I'm saying to myself, Oh, I can't 404 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 5: let this city down. They're yearning for a star quarterback, 405 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 5: not just a star quarterback. I take that back for 406 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 5: some success. You know, my first game in the Georgia 407 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 5: Dome at the time, we had about twenty thousand fans 408 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 5: in the stadium, and I'm looking around like, somehow, some. 409 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,120 Speaker 3: Way, this's got to change. Obviously. 410 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 5: Arthur Blank was, you know, a genius from a business perspective, 411 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 5: so he made it so that people wanted to come 412 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 5: to the games. And you know, when he purchased the 413 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 5: team in two thousand and one, he marketed the right way. 414 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 5: He was able to, you know, lord the ticket prices 415 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 5: and bring people in so we could feel the stadium 416 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,360 Speaker 5: for one. Then once the stadium got for him, like nah, 417 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 5: I just I can't disappoint. And the city meant so 418 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 5: much because of the pressure that I put. 419 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 3: On myself to please the fans. 420 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 5: And you know, I just took it upon myself, man, 421 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 5: to do everything possible, even though it was tough, man, 422 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 5: because you know, when you line up behind that center 423 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 5: and that ball is hiked on that first play, man, 424 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 5: you just got to brace up, believe in your study, 425 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 5: believe in your in what you see, and be a 426 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 5: man back there. 427 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. 428 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 5: That's why I try not to, you know, scrutinized and 429 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,239 Speaker 5: chastise the quarterbacks now because I can relate to what 430 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 5: they're going through. I know how hard it is, and 431 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 5: you know, that's why we celebrate the ones who win 432 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 5: on a consistent basis, like like the Lamars and like 433 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 5: the Patricks because it's tough. But you know, uh, Dan 434 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 5: Reeves was amazing. It was the only coach that I 435 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 5: told myself growing up, I didn't want to listens a 436 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 5: little different because I used to watch him as a kid, 437 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 5: and John Elway was one of my favorites. That's why 438 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 5: I could fluctuate when I'm eight seven, You know what 439 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 5: I'm saying, like these quarterbacks that could move like me, 440 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 5: that I was watching them like I want to be 441 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 5: like him. So Dan Reeves used to always just get 442 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 5: into John's ass. I'm talking about all the time. If 443 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 5: you go back and watch old clips, he he I mean, 444 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,959 Speaker 5: he lit ding up, probably bring the best out of him. 445 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,360 Speaker 5: And I used to tell myself, God, if I get 446 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 5: drafted any team, don't let it be Dan Reeves. And 447 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 5: he ended up drafting me. But it was the best 448 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 5: thing to happen to me because he knew what to 449 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 5: do with me. 450 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 3: He knew how to. 451 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 5: You know, when I got to a point where I 452 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 5: was like riding too high, you knew how to bring 453 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 5: me back down. And he was certainly one of the 454 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 5: coaches that I respect more than anything. 455 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 3: And he made me. 456 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 5: Afraid to fail, you'd be afraid to fail. And I 457 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 5: always never wanted to let him down. So we're talking 458 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 5: about black quarterbacks. 459 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 4: There is a certain political aspect that we got to 460 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 4: talk about Colin Kaepernick. Yeah, taking a stand, well taking 461 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,360 Speaker 4: a knee actually, and that that was a major thing. 462 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 4: And as a quarterback, he was the leader of the team. 463 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 4: And so what what how do you feel looking back 464 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 4: on this whole situation now that is over with and 465 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 4: in retrospect, how do you how do you feel about 466 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 4: that situation from his perspective how or and also the 467 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 4: NFL's perspective. 468 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel like Colin did what he felt was right, 469 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 5: and he took a stance for a lot of people. 470 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 5: He used his platform to bring awareness to what he 471 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 5: believed in. Whether people felt like, you know, it was 472 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,119 Speaker 5: the right platform to do it on or not, that 473 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 5: was his perspective and that's what he wanted to do 474 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 5: free will in this world. The NFL stands like, I 475 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,919 Speaker 5: don't know, you know, what they you know, established or 476 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 5: what they felt like was right or wrong in regards 477 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 5: to it. I've watched it like everybody else and wanted 478 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 5: to see what the outcome was gonna be what the 479 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 5: conclusion was, I'm going to turn out to be because 480 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 5: it was a unique moment in sports. I think Colin 481 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 5: realized that. I think the NFL realized that. I think 482 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 5: on all levels, everybody just wanted some form of respect, 483 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 5: from the NFL to Colin. 484 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 3: To just people abroad. 485 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,959 Speaker 5: I think everybody wanted, you know, this situation to have 486 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 5: a positive outcome. 487 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 3: But I think at the end of. 488 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,159 Speaker 5: The day, it was all about respect, everybody respecting one 489 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 5: another decision that was being made. And so in talking 490 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 5: to Colin, I know, you know, he's happy and that 491 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 5: he stood up. 492 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 3: He's happy that he took a stance for. 493 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 5: A lot of people, and you know a lot of 494 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 5: people appreciate that. So he's living his best life now 495 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 5: and things are good and no complaints, so you know, 496 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 5: we all move forward from it. 497 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 4: Make the decision to change your life today.

He's the only here to take my job. 516 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 5: Really Yeah, well, I don't think Donovan looked at it 517 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 5: as if I was coming to take his job. 518 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 3: Donovan, Andy, they just embraced me in that moment. 519 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 5: Donovan, he knew that I grew up idolizing him and 520 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 5: wanting to be Donovan McNabb. The nineteen ninety nine draft, 521 00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 5: as you heard in the dock, was so inspirational to 522 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 5: me because that made me feel like I could make it. 523 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 5: And when I seen Donovan go because I watched everything 524 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 5: Donovan did in college and something like he couldn't do 525 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 5: no wrong in my eyes, and he really didn't do 526 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 5: any wrong, and so he knew that he was one 527 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 5: of my favorites. 528 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 3: It was just kind of screwed up that we had 529 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 3: to face each other. 530 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 5: And so when you have to face somebody in the 531 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 5: league or in any competition, it becomes a rival you 532 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 5: know what I'm saying. Becomes a rivalry. And you know, 533 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 5: it didn't stop the love that I had for him. 534 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 5: It just made me want to beat him.

Yeah, yeah, 567 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 6: they first first played a game. They paid Donovan right 568 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 6: before the game, like, well, you lucky. I was on 569 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 6: the ground then I was hungry. 570 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. 571 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 5: I was coming back from coming back from prison, and 572 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 5: I was first coming off injury. You know what I'm saying, Like, 573 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 5: I know my financial state, So I was back in 574 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 5: that mold. I was like in Virginia Tech move where 575 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 5: I was just trying to get it again. 576 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 3: It ain't nothing like going through that process of you know, when. 577 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 5: You you're striving to be great, when you got so much 578 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 5: to play for. I wish, you know, once you know 579 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 5: I got the contract, I would have kept that airs 580 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 5: and I did, I you know, for the most part. 581 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 5: But it was so exhausting to get back to that point. 582 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 5: You don't have to go on to prison for two years, 583 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,479 Speaker 5: coming back, sitting for a year, that's three years out 584 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 5: of football, then come back and you get it all back, 585 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 5: and then you know, you got to keep that edge, 586 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 5: keep that edge as things started to change around you. 587 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 5: People started to change. They wanted Andy out of Philly, 588 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 5: you know, and I love Andy the death. So my 589 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 5: heart was like torn. I'm like, how could this great 590 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 5: city not want this great man? But you know, all 591 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 5: good things come to an end, and you know, it's 592 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 5: just a lot of circumstances and that led to me 593 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 5: leaving Philly. 594 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 3: But man, it was some of the best years of 595 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 3: my life. 596 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 5: When I think back, I see pictures, man, and I 597 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 5: just have a great sense of gratitude for that era. 598 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 4: So from a financial sting point, so Dak Prescott. You 599 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 4: just signed the biggest contract in history on another black quarterback. Yes, 600 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 4: so two hundred and thirty that congratulations, two hundred and 601 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 4: thirty one million dollars guaranteed eighty million dollars signing bonus. 602 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 4: So the guaranteed aspect is interesting because you had one 603 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 4: hundred and thirty eight million dollar contract with the Falcons, 604 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 4: but only thirty seven million was guaranteed. So before, previously 605 00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 4: a lot football contracts were not guaranteed, notoriously for four 606 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 4: contracts were not guaranteed. But now we're seeing more and 607 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 4: more fully guaranteed, almost fully guaranteed NFL contracts, And that 608 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 4: is a big difference because I mean you're talking about 609 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 4: in that situation, almost eighty percent of your contract was 610 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 4: not guaranteed. So people will see the number like you 611 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 4: got one hundred million, but it's like, okay, well the 612 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 4: incentives if you get hurt, if you don't make it 613 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 4: to the Pro Bowl, and then by the time it 614 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 4: equals out, you might not you might get paid twenty 615 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 4: percent of that. So talk about when understanding that when 616 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 4: you first signed that contract, and how the evolution has 617 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 4: changed now. 618 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, the only thing that matters in the contract 619 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 5: is the fully guaranteed. The rest of it being center 620 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 5: based is just fluff. That's those are agents that y'all 621 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 5: make this contract. One hundred and two hundred and twenty 622 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 5: million for my foot, that's for the brand. You know, 623 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 5: what we as players see is the fully guaranteed. 624 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 3: So it might be you. 625 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 5: Know, two hundred million, but not for guys now, one 626 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 5: hundred and ten million fully guaranteed. 627 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 3: It's still a lot of money. 628 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 5: So when I signed my contract, it was one hundred 629 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 5: and twenty million, thirty seven million fully guaranteed, but or 630 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 5: thirty four or whatever. 631 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 3: But that was in two thousand and four. You know, 632 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 3: it's twenty twenty four. 633 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 5: It's twenty years later, salary caps throwing up inflation. You know, 634 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 5: business is growing around the league, and owners are getting richer, 635 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 5: and you know, you gotta pay players a lot more. 636 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 5: And so that's just the era we are in now, 637 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 5: and guys are fortunate. You know, ten years from now, 638 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 5: the fully guarantees might be two hundred million. 639 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 3: I mean, DeShawn wasn't far from now, yeah, I mean. 640 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 4: That's where how was the pressure was headed When you 641 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 4: signed one hundred million dollars deal, you were still young. 642 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 4: So I'm assuming there was a lot of pressure because 643 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 4: people look at it like, you got a hundred million dollars, right, 644 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 4: So how was that signing that one hundred million dollars 645 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 4: deal but then only actually having thirty seven guaranteed. 646 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 5: Pressure when I signed my first contract. Because my first 647 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 5: contract was like, uh, it's a rookie. It was five years, 648 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 5: sixty two million, eleven million fully guaranteed. 649 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 3: Everybody thought I had you got it, he. 650 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 5: Got it, And I really do wish I had this 651 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 5: sixty two million because but you know that's gonna come 652 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 5: in time, you know, if it's five year. 653 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 6: This episode is brought to you by P and C Bank. 654 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 6: A lot of people think podcasts about work are boring, 655 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 6: and sure they definitely can be, But understanding a professionals 656 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 6: routine shows us how they achieve their success little by little, 657 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 6: day after day.

I can just perform. 727 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:27,399 Speaker 5: And so fast forward to two thousand and four.

Now it's about making the right choices investing 736 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:52,839 Speaker 5: and making the money grow. 737 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 3: So that's still in Atlanta. 738 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,839 Speaker 6: But then in Philly you get are you the first 739 00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 6: player to get two one hundred million dollar contracts? 740 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 5: You are the first man? I guess, too big signing. 741 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 5: So like, explain what the contract is?

Yeah, the Philly one, now are 745 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 6: you looking at it differently? Like all right, now it's 746 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 6: time to sit down and figure out what the investments 747 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 6: are going to look like. 748 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. After I get up the. 749 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 5: Field, Philly contract was more so I was in the 750 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 5: bankruptcy at the time from coming out of prison. I 751 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 5: still don't know how that happened, but yeah, I was 752 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 5: in the bankruptcy coming out coming out of prison, and 753 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 5: so now you know, I'm there's more money that's been 754 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 5: It's not just paying taxes. Now you got you know, 755 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,359 Speaker 5: a whole nother burell that you gotta pay. So now 756 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 5: I'm really cracking down on the finances, like all right, bo, 757 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 5: I'm looking at when I I can sustain that's okay, 758 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 5: that's that's feasible. And then you know, like I say, 759 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 5: Philadelphia gave me the contract and I was thankful, Like 760 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 5: they knew the state that I was in. They knew 761 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 5: that I was grinded and trying to get back. And 762 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 5: that's why some people, man, you just got to be 763 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 5: so thankful for him could because they didn't have to 764 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 5: do that. I earned it. But you know, Andy not 765 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 5: saying he gave it to me or they wanted you 766 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,799 Speaker 5: need to be financially free. 767 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 3: You knew the state I was in. I talked to 768 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 3: Andy about everything. 769 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 5: He knew what was going on in my life from 770 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,879 Speaker 5: A to Z, and so to be able to get 771 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:32,839 Speaker 5: that at the time, it was like, all right, man, 772 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 5: I work hard for this. I just got to make 773 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 5: sure I take care of it because you know, I'm 774 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 5: busting it down. You know what I'm saying, It's getting 775 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 5: busted down in thirds. 776 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 3: But what's also new in the NFL is equity and ownership. Yeah. 777 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 6: Is that something that you've ever thought that or looking 778 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 6: forward to? Obviously the Falcons just did it. They had 779 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:56,919 Speaker 6: a small group because people don't realize enough for the franchises. 780 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 3: Have been here for a long time. Yeah. Giants are 781 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 3: celebrating one hundred years. Yeah. 782 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 6: I just looked at the purchase price in nineteen twenty three. 783 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 6: They were purchased for five hundred dollars. Five hundred dollars. 784 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 6: The Commanders would just hold for six point two billion. 785 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,879 Speaker 3: Yeah. The Giants are valued probably more than that. 786 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 6: And so if they never sell the team, then they 787 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,759 Speaker 6: never really have the liquidation events yep. And so they're 788 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 6: tarning to take equity to do it. Yeah, so you 789 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 6: signed to see that now. Is that something that you 790 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 6: think about ownership inside of a team? 791 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 5: I would love to you know what I'm saying. I 792 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 5: think that's another way to build financial wealth. But you 793 00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:34,040 Speaker 5: got in line with the right people and the right 794 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 5: partners at the right time. One of my good friends 795 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 5: who's affiliated with the Lanta Falcons. Got a percentage and 796 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 5: got a piece. But you know, that's not something that 797 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 5: I'm looking for. It's not something that I wake up 798 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 5: and say, you know this, this is what I want 799 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 5: to set my you know, set my heart out to do. 800 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 5: If it happens, it happens, if the opportunity presents itself. 801 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:02,000 Speaker 5: There are other entities that I got an opportunity to 802 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 5: be involved in.

Some some things is coming in Atlanta. 804 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 5: So right now, I'm just really in a good state, uh, 805 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 5: you know, just with the people that that I'm centering 806 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 5: around and the relationships that I have.

How 835 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 5: we how we gonna you know, financially buy this property, 836 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 5: you know, make sure that they can fully function and 837 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 5: then also get a return. You know, you got to 838 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 5: ask questions, but sometimes you ask questions and you get 839 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 5: the answers that people want to give you if they 840 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:05,400 Speaker 5: know you naive and they know you don't know, then 841 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,360 Speaker 5: they can tell you anything. And so you got to 842 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 5: read the room. And that's why I say in the beginning, 843 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 5: don't go invest in millions of dollars. Like I gave 844 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 5: a financial advisor eight million dollars when I was in Atlanta. 845 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:23,399 Speaker 5: I gave it to him because I had a lot 846 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 5: and I wanted to grow it. And he took it 847 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 5: and pretty much put it into what he wanted to 848 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 5: put it into. And then when I was going through 849 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:37,320 Speaker 5: a rough time and I had to liquidate because of 850 00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 5: the trouble, I got in to pay back, you know, 851 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 5: creditors to whoever wasn't I couldn't look with it. I 852 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,239 Speaker 5: couldn't find them, couldn't lick with they did. I'm just 853 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 5: forced to file bankrupt. 854 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 3: What was it put in? Like a real estate deal? 855 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 5: It was in a big real estate I mean it 856 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 5: was an amazing deal. Now we was pretty much building 857 00:43:55,440 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 5: the city, you know, strip malls, movie theater. Yeah, yeah, 858 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 5: for sure. It was a hellicon Union city. It was 859 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 5: a hell of a plan, hell of a plan. And 860 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,160 Speaker 5: I was like, oh, y'all, you know what, I just 861 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 5: spied to them, bro, I'm trying to grow, you know, 862 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 5: my You know what I'm saying, this is my portfolio. 863 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 3: I'm trying to grow it. 864 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 5: I'm twenty I'm twenty five, twenty six years old, and 865 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 5: I told you I always stayed ahead.

You ask how you know what I'm saying, 882 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 5: Just to be where are your people and just know 883 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 5: the situations that you're getting into, because you can get 884 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,840 Speaker 5: taken full advantage of. And that's why I tell young 885 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:20,200 Speaker 5: men and women don't go invest in millions of dollars. 886 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 3: It would have softened the blow for me. 887 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:24,200 Speaker 5: I'd have been okay if i'd have gave him a 888 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 5: two million as opposed to eight. Now I got room 889 00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 5: to work work around certain situations. So yeah, man, you 890 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:32,719 Speaker 5: got to be smart with your money because that's your 891 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 5: money at the end of the day. 892 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:36,239 Speaker 3: And learn at the same time. Yeah, I mean we 893 00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:37,480 Speaker 3: have to learn from our heroes. 894 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, and so like to see you speak about it, 895 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 6: to see you be vulnerable about it. 896 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:44,959 Speaker 3: They're gonna learn from it for sure. 897 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 6: I think one of the most important piece is when 898 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 6: you're talking to Dion in the documentary and he says, 899 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 6: obviously you had to come back, but he didn't realize 900 00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 6: you a whole until you saw you with the family. 901 00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:58,720 Speaker 3: I know your wife is ep on the project. 902 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,360 Speaker 6: Talk about that, the process of working together on something 903 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 6: that's so important to the sport but to you as 904 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 6: a union, like you're doing something together, you're working with 905 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 6: your wife talking about that. 906 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 3: It's fun when you get to work with your companion. 907 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,760 Speaker 5: Man, it's also nerve racking at the same time because 908 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 5: a lot of the things it in relationships, you know, 909 00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 5: you bump here is and you don't see how to 910 00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 5: aunt certain things. So it's like, yo, I should ask 911 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 5: this question now, y'all used to ask that question. Her 912 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 5: and to producer to get together and they devise a 913 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:30,880 Speaker 5: plan and it all turned out to be, you know, 914 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 5: the best thing that we could have done. You know 915 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:38,279 Speaker 5: what I'm saying in terms of right now, But yeah, man, 916 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,319 Speaker 5: just being a good listener, you know what I'm saying, 917 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:45,800 Speaker 5: following the game plan, just liking football, trusting her judgment, 918 00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:49,719 Speaker 5: you know, trusting other producers judgments and what they believe in. 919 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,719 Speaker 5: And I don't have all the answers sometimes, but I 920 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:54,760 Speaker 5: can walk in the room and if it's football related, 921 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 5: I probably can answer more questions than anybody. It's not 922 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,000 Speaker 5: that we're all time. When you know, you stepping in 923 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:05,320 Speaker 5: a different arena. You know, that's their arena. They produce 924 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,960 Speaker 5: and they ep projects. And this is not the first rodeo, 925 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:11,080 Speaker 5: but for me, it was my first time. I was 926 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 5: just really blessed to be the talent and this I 927 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 5: felt like to be able to do the interviews and 928 00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:18,839 Speaker 5: sit down with all these guys and you know, gain 929 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,760 Speaker 5: the understanding of their football life and their football journey, 930 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 5: like I said, and so in talking to my wife's like, 931 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,359 Speaker 5: that's what we set out to do that, that's what 932 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,239 Speaker 5: the plan was. When y'all I pitched this to you 933 00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:35,000 Speaker 5: in the car, would you do this? I was like, cool, Yeah, 934 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:38,480 Speaker 5: sound like a hell of a solid project. Let's do it. 935 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,919 Speaker 5: So when it was time to do it and make suggestions, 936 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 5: and sometimes I just had to shut up and listen, 937 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 5: and it turned out for the better. 938 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 3: To follow out real quick. 939 00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:51,960 Speaker 6: So in terms of creating it, because a lot of 940 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 6: people don't even know the process of creating documentary all 941 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:56,799 Speaker 6: y'all self under it. And then the other part is 942 00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,799 Speaker 6: it's coming out on Prime. Correct, it's coming out on Prime? 943 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 6: Was I'm Prome? So you got to picture to two 944 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:04,800 Speaker 6: different you had to picture, Yeah, what's that process? 945 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:08,000 Speaker 3: I see? I didn't know a lot about that process. 946 00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 3: You know. 947 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 5: All I knew was the money and being the talent. 948 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:17,960 Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying. You know, I learned it, 949 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 5: and I learned so much in this Like I'm ready 950 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 5: to move forward, but I can't take other people's con 951 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:24,720 Speaker 5: I got my own concepts of me and my team, 952 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 5: my crew, and wife got her own concepts to what 953 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,200 Speaker 5: they about to go do. But now I know, like 954 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 5: little stuff got to start out with a sizzle, put 955 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 5: that together. Somebody got to funded. It's either gonna be you, 956 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:41,320 Speaker 5: somebody else or some partners. And and so I learned 957 00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,439 Speaker 5: and a collective effort you can get to the end game. 958 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 5: But a little quicker, you know, she was instrumental in 959 00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 5: the concept. I was able to put the money together 960 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 5: and they was able to execute and get it sold. 961 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:05,840 Speaker 5: So teamwork. And I was like, I say, blessed to 962 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:08,359 Speaker 5: be the talent in it. I see so much good 963 00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 5: in it. Man, I just wanted wanting to always feel 964 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 5: like damn man, Like if the league don't embrace us 965 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,880 Speaker 5: as black quarterbacks, man, we never get an opportunity to 966 00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:23,960 Speaker 5: line up and say hut for the Tennessee Titans or 967 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 5: the Philadelphia Eagles or the Baltimore Ravens. Man. The league 968 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:32,520 Speaker 5: has come so far bro from where it was. And 969 00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:34,719 Speaker 5: maybe it was just stereotypes from the outside world. It 970 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:38,399 Speaker 5: might not even have been inside the NFL world. It's 971 00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:42,600 Speaker 5: just so much pressure can accumulate from fans and people, 972 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:44,440 Speaker 5: and you hear about these guys get hate mail and 973 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:47,400 Speaker 5: all that. So if Doug Willims getting hate mail. Can 974 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:52,600 Speaker 5: you imagine what's coming to the facility, the organization. They've 975 00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:58,440 Speaker 5: seen the same thing, and so pressure comes from all sides. 976 00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 5: But it takes somebody to stand up say you know what, man, 977 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 5: screw that. I don't care, Doug gonna be my quarterback. 978 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:06,719 Speaker 5: You start in the super Bowl today, broken barrier. And 979 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 5: I think when people do it, they don't even maybe 980 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,400 Speaker 5: they think about doing it. This might be the first 981 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:12,920 Speaker 5: black quarter when I got dropped a number one, first 982 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:13,719 Speaker 5: black quarterbacks. 983 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:14,319 Speaker 3: And I don't know. 984 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:16,799 Speaker 5: I don't necessarily think Damn Reeds was trying to break 985 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 5: a barrier. I think he was doing what he thought 986 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,200 Speaker 5: was right, the right thing to do in his heart. 987 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:22,680 Speaker 3: Obviously he wanted to win. 988 00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:25,359 Speaker 5: And you know Arthur Smith, who was the on at 989 00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 5: the time, did the same thing. They felt the same way. 990 00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:32,919 Speaker 5: Y'all don't care what color he is. Y'all black, white 991 00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:36,239 Speaker 5: and different. Yo, I need you come on. And that 992 00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 5: meant a lot, man. And when I was on a podium, 993 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 5: they was like, Yo, you know you just made a history. 994 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 5: I'm like, Yo, that's the last thing I'm thinking. But 995 00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:49,319 Speaker 5: looking at it twenty five years later or even ten 996 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 5: years later, it's like, man, Damn. That was a big 997 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 5: moment because when because Cam went number one a couple 998 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:59,319 Speaker 5: of years later. But man, I always referenced and as 999 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 5: you're saying in The Doctor ninety nine draft Man, when 1000 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 5: Donovan and Kelly Smith, Dante, Cole Pepper, Sean King, when 1001 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:10,120 Speaker 5: all them boys went, I was like, yo, I got 1002 00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 5: a shot. I'm not playing quarterback for no reason. For 1003 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 5: a lot of years, I felt like I was playing 1004 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:19,400 Speaker 5: quarterback just to get put in another position. 1005 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:21,799 Speaker 3: When did you feel confident that you now, this is it, 1006 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 3: this is my position. 1007 00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 5: Like I say, ninety nine, I was at Virginia Tech, 1008 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:31,960 Speaker 5: and it was rough at Virginia Tech in the beginning 1009 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,120 Speaker 5: because I had a tough time picking up offense. 1010 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 3: Like I said, I didn't. 1011 00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,319 Speaker 5: I wasn't fortunate enough to go to camps and learn 1012 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 5: from quarterback coaches early like these kids can do now. 1013 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:43,040 Speaker 5: So when I got there, I was raw. I really 1014 00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 5: didn't know how to like compartmentalize the offense, and you 1015 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:51,799 Speaker 5: know how to learn it, what it takes to learn it. 1016 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,120 Speaker 3: It took about four months for me to learn the offense. 1017 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 5: But when I finally got it, I was able to 1018 00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:01,640 Speaker 5: pair that up with the athleticism and then that's when 1019 00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 5: I became a dynamic player. But it all starts with 1020 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:07,520 Speaker 5: your mental You got to know what you're doing first, 1021 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:10,840 Speaker 5: and then that the physical talent come out. It was 1022 00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:12,719 Speaker 5: a rough ride. It was a tough journey man. Like 1023 00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 5: I said, weighed a lot on my mental health, Like 1024 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 5: do I play quarterback? Do I switch it? I'm running 1025 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:22,240 Speaker 5: out of time over here. I'm being read shirt freshman 1026 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,960 Speaker 5: next year, true freshman.

You're gonnaut him in front of Montana. Yes, 1043 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,200 Speaker 3: he just did you. I mean, I just want to 1044 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:17,040 Speaker 3: read how. 1045 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:24,239 Speaker 5: Iterated Montanna had four rings, but Montanna won't Patrick, Montana 1046 00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:28,359 Speaker 5: had Rice. Yeah, Patrick had Tyreek Hill for a couple 1047 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:30,120 Speaker 5: of years, got the greatest tight end of all time. 1048 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 5: I mean nothing Kelsey, my boy, not taking nothing away 1049 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:40,360 Speaker 5: from Kelsey, but Kelsey is a tight end, you know 1050 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:43,600 Speaker 5: what I'm saying, which makes it even more prolific for 1051 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 5: him because to be the greatest tight and one of 1052 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:48,919 Speaker 5: the greatest tight ends because I put him up there 1053 00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:53,400 Speaker 5: with Tony Gonzalez was a great tight end and it 1054 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:55,480 Speaker 5: was you know, grounk. You know what I'm saying. It's 1055 00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:58,680 Speaker 5: about five of them that they can all be number 1056 00:53:58,719 --> 00:53:59,520 Speaker 5: one for sure. 1057 00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:01,279 Speaker 3: Nothing another has done with Kelsey's done now. 1058 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:07,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, but he also has terrible well he has not 1059 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:09,720 Speaker 4: have good receivers my home. 1060 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:14,360 Speaker 5: Put the Hall of Fame. But I'm talking abou Tyreek 1061 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:18,600 Speaker 5: for a couple of years. Yeah, but he's all yeah, yeah, 1062 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:22,040 Speaker 5: all in all man, because he ain't about the tight end. 1063 00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:24,919 Speaker 5: Kelsey is great. They all great. But when you're talking 1064 00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:28,680 Speaker 5: about quarterback play, Patrick could do a little bit more 1065 00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:32,279 Speaker 5: than Joe. Yes, you know what I'm saying, move like this. 1066 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 5: The game last night is crazy, you know what I'm saying. 1067 00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:37,439 Speaker 5: That was crazy, and so he can move just enough, 1068 00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 5: joke and move to man. Look, I do see Patrick 1069 00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:41,880 Speaker 5: getting two more. 1070 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 3: At least I see it. 1071 00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:46,840 Speaker 6: This is a football I got two more football questions 1072 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:50,600 Speaker 6: because you brought up ninety nine. Was there ever a 1073 00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:54,319 Speaker 6: time when you were on the field and you looked 1074 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:56,680 Speaker 6: on the opposing side or even on your side and said, 1075 00:54:57,400 --> 00:54:59,600 Speaker 6: there's a better athlete on the field than me. Because 1076 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:01,879 Speaker 6: when I'm of the ninety nine and we ran into 1077 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:06,360 Speaker 6: him recently, Peter Warick was on that field. Yeah, and 1078 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 6: to me, one of the their list players I've ever seen. 1079 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:13,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, playing against Florida State that year, it's like. 1080 00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:17,000 Speaker 5: It's like one of the games that you know, like, yo, 1081 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:20,319 Speaker 5: we're probably gonna lose this game. I just got to 1082 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 5: play my heart out and I got to give it 1083 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:24,680 Speaker 5: everything I got from start to finish because he's gonna 1084 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:25,719 Speaker 5: make some plays. 1085 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:26,600 Speaker 3: You know. 1086 00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 5: It's just saying, you know, you can't stop him. You 1087 00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:31,359 Speaker 5: can only hope to contain him. There was that type 1088 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,359 Speaker 5: of deal going into the game. They had so many 1089 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 5: amazing athletes, Like I think they had like four first 1090 00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,759 Speaker 5: rounders on that team, probably like fifteen guys who got 1091 00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:42,560 Speaker 5: drafted from that one team alone. 1092 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:44,840 Speaker 3: And they was just real fast. 1093 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 5: It was in the era where you know, the great 1094 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:50,719 Speaker 5: Bobby Batoin was probably at the height of his recruiting 1095 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:55,000 Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying, tenure, and he was getting 1096 00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 5: the best of the best athletes, you know what I'm saying. 1097 00:55:57,080 --> 00:56:00,960 Speaker 5: And so I felt it me being as fast and 1098 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,440 Speaker 5: as elusive as I was, and being on turf, they 1099 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:07,239 Speaker 5: just kind of outmatched this a little bit in certain areas. Uh. 1100 00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:10,279 Speaker 5: And why I do think we had the team to 1101 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:13,880 Speaker 5: beat him, we had two more quarters, we might have 1102 00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 5: walked them down. 1103 00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:19,879 Speaker 3: Was just he caught a bomb in the third quarter 1104 00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,640 Speaker 3: and we just knew it. Damn. So got loose on this, 1105 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:23,399 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. 1106 00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:28,359 Speaker 4: Well, the black quarterback also has transitioned in college as well, 1107 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:31,239 Speaker 4: n il deals. Yeah, man, And we can't we got 1108 00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 4: to talk about Shandor Sanders Colorado. 1109 00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:36,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, no doubt, baby boy. 1110 00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 4: So I mean he got a lamb truck in college, 1111 00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 4: right and get millions of dollars. So how good do 1112 00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:47,799 Speaker 4: you think he can be and what how do you think, like, 1113 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:49,000 Speaker 4: what would you have done? 1114 00:56:49,040 --> 00:56:51,400 Speaker 3: As far as the NIL deal has changed this. 1115 00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:56,560 Speaker 4: It's even the reason why savan quit, we said, because 1116 00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:59,359 Speaker 4: like he didn't want to compete with that. As far 1117 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 4: as raising five million dollars year, it was just it 1118 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:05,120 Speaker 4: was just it's a whole different retired to set the ball. 1119 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,040 Speaker 4: How you feel about NIL and should do of the 1120 00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:08,799 Speaker 4: N I l I. 1121 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:12,399 Speaker 5: Love that these guys got an opportunity to go make 1122 00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:14,360 Speaker 5: money for their name, image and likeness. 1123 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:17,960 Speaker 3: You know. I think it's just that you know what 1124 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 3: I'm saying and clear. But for a guy like. 1125 00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:26,920 Speaker 5: Should Do, I got different perspectives. Chaudor pretty much been 1126 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 5: in the same offense for the last couple of years, 1127 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 5: so he didn't have to change coordinators when they came 1128 00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:35,080 Speaker 5: from Jackson State to Colorado. I think Pat Sherman now 1129 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 5: is a uh, you know, probably the same things he's doing. 1130 00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 5: He's doing conceptually, it's not too far from what he learned. 1131 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:47,720 Speaker 5: What scares me about the NIL is that you know, 1132 00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:51,120 Speaker 5: kids just going from different teams to a different team 1133 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:53,760 Speaker 5: year after year after learn and learn these offenses. 1134 00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:55,560 Speaker 3: It's really hard to. 1135 00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:59,080 Speaker 5: Learn and so you get there and you got paid 1136 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 5: a million dollars in it. It's a guy that's that's 1137 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:04,480 Speaker 5: been there for two years already and you you got 1138 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 5: to learn, but he already know more than you. 1139 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 3: HM. 1140 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:10,400 Speaker 5: So if you're not exceptional, if you don't have Shador 1141 00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:17,000 Speaker 5: saying this talent and a bring like Shador, then he's 1142 00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:19,000 Speaker 5: probably that quarterback is probably gonna look better than you. 1143 00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 3: You probably gonna struggle. 1144 00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:23,200 Speaker 5: DJ like good lady. I can't say his name. The 1145 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:27,400 Speaker 5: quarterback in Florida State went to three different teams Clemson, 1146 00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:30,640 Speaker 5: Oregon State, in State, now Florida State or they might 1147 00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 5: be on for I don't know if they lost. 1148 00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:34,400 Speaker 3: They won last week. Good, I'm happy. 1149 00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:41,360 Speaker 5: You know, you got to learn all these different concepts 1150 00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 5: and man, you're just not comfortable. 1151 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 3: It takes time to get comfortable. 1152 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:46,360 Speaker 5: You got to go out and practice it against the 1153 00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 5: defense and learn from your mistakes. And you know what 1154 00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:51,920 Speaker 5: I'm saying, try to find ways to you know what 1155 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 5: I'm saying, move the chains and get better. And that's 1156 00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:56,760 Speaker 5: it's just not easy when you get learning. But I 1157 00:58:56,880 --> 00:59:00,880 Speaker 5: do support Nil Shador. You know, he he's worth every 1158 00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:05,240 Speaker 5: penny from what he got to go through on Saturdays. 1159 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:07,120 Speaker 5: And you know, he got the team that's just getting 1160 00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 5: better and these guys earning that money. 1161 00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 3: Man, it's it's a lot, you know what I'm saying. 1162 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:12,920 Speaker 3: But I think. 1163 00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:15,920 Speaker 5: You know, in due time, you know, I think a 1164 00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 5: lot of that to be dispersed amongst the team. I 1165 00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:20,960 Speaker 5: think that's important. Hey, somebody got to do it. 1166 00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,480 Speaker 6: To door is number one, n Il number two, and 1167 00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:25,120 Speaker 6: I'm not sure if you watch him play last week 1168 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:28,760 Speaker 6: Archie Man and ye, now we knew the pedigree is 1169 00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:33,200 Speaker 6: there from the throwing, but last two weeks ago he 1170 00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:36,760 Speaker 6: clocked in at twenty point seven miles per hour on 1171 00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:37,200 Speaker 6: the field. 1172 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:43,120 Speaker 3: Who is that? Paying Man's nephew at Texas? Who's his father? 1173 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:47,880 Speaker 3: His father is? This is Cooper? 1174 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:49,400 Speaker 6: He didn't make it to the NFL. He had a 1175 00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:55,520 Speaker 6: spine injury that derailed him in college. Got me thinking, right, 1176 00:59:56,120 --> 01:00:01,480 Speaker 6: fastest athletes that's played at the position? Putting you, I'm 1177 01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:04,560 Speaker 6: putting Lamar and I have to kind of put him 1178 01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:06,520 Speaker 6: at He's running faster than Tyree Oh whoa you? 1179 01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:10,760 Speaker 3: Arch Manning? He ran twenty saying quarterback, quarterback, quarterback bo. 1180 01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 6: What he clocked the faster time than Tyreek Killer was 1181 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:16,720 Speaker 6: just a one sprint he's not a fast player. 1182 01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:19,720 Speaker 3: Well, if you ran a sprint of twenty point seven, 1183 01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 3: let's think this through thing about this. 1184 01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:24,640 Speaker 6: Let's think because because Tyreek is catching it and running 1185 01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 6: and I'm not saying that spring. 1186 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:28,760 Speaker 3: He's not wearing one hundred mini dash. I'm saying open field, 1187 01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:31,800 Speaker 3: he ran twenty point seven. But that's one run. I 1188 01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:33,439 Speaker 3: don't care what it is. Bro, you're on the field, 1189 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:35,720 Speaker 3: you want twenty point seven. That's faster than the fastest 1190 01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:36,480 Speaker 3: guy in the NFL. 1191 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:40,120 Speaker 6: So I'm thinking, like, at your top speed fastest quarterbacks, 1192 01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:42,880 Speaker 6: you lamar, who else is running him? 1193 01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:46,520 Speaker 3: Not in this class? Gonna come to Willisie Wilson is 1194 01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 3: in there. He's up there. League. 1195 01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:50,240 Speaker 5: Willis will definitely run a four four forty or he'll 1196 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:52,000 Speaker 5: get out quick, really quick. 1197 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 3: RG three. 1198 01:00:54,280 --> 01:01:01,000 Speaker 5: That's my guy. Algie three was fast. Not too many 1199 01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:06,720 Speaker 5: more that's gonna move like that. Oh can't can't forget 1200 01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:09,320 Speaker 5: about cam speak. Yeah, I think more of him as 1201 01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:13,160 Speaker 5: power both it is Google it, Yeah, google cam highlights 1202 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:18,360 Speaker 5: in Auburn, Google cam highlights, and and I watched early Carolina. 1203 01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:21,400 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, he probably clocked you know, twenty plus a 1204 01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:22,000 Speaker 5: couple of times. 1205 01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:24,880 Speaker 3: So yeah, it's about five of us that it was 1206 01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:25,800 Speaker 3: in the four to four. 1207 01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:30,160 Speaker 6: Club you played in this era right now, pistol offense 1208 01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:34,680 Speaker 6: with the rules, any offense the rules catered to not 1209 01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:38,040 Speaker 6: hit the quarterback. What does Michael Vick look like in 1210 01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 6: twenty twenty four as NFL? 1211 01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:44,960 Speaker 5: Well, I think you know that rule certainly fluctuates for 1212 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:48,440 Speaker 5: a mobile quarterback. Well most of the guys mobile anyway. 1213 01:01:48,480 --> 01:01:50,920 Speaker 5: So let's just like I shouldn't even say that. Everybody 1214 01:01:51,040 --> 01:01:55,640 Speaker 5: just do a threat and can run now. So yeah, 1215 01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:58,960 Speaker 5: I just think in terms of performance, I'm gonna be 1216 01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:01,200 Speaker 5: up at the top of the league, just like I 1217 01:02:01,360 --> 01:02:03,440 Speaker 5: was when I was twenty four one. I got a 1218 01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:07,120 Speaker 5: great understanding of the game. I do think that coaching Matterson, 1219 01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 5: that gotta be with the coach like Amy Reed or 1220 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:15,640 Speaker 5: Matt Laflour or Sean McVay or Kyle Shanahan. You know, 1221 01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:21,880 Speaker 5: he looking at MVP, you know, type of numbers and performances. 1222 01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:28,200 Speaker 5: So yeah, I mean, I just can't end up these 1223 01:02:28,320 --> 01:02:30,720 Speaker 5: days with a coach that don't know how to use you. 1224 01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 5: Prime example, the Carolina Panthers. I don't know anything about 1225 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:38,800 Speaker 5: their coaching staff, but I know Brice Young shouldn't have 1226 01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 5: looked the way he looked, And you know, all you 1227 01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:43,720 Speaker 5: gotta do is look around the league and see what's 1228 01:02:43,720 --> 01:02:45,520 Speaker 5: going on around the league to help your player be 1229 01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:46,800 Speaker 5: become a better player. 1230 01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 3: It's not rocket science. 1231 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:54,600 Speaker 5: I think it's all about, you know, sequence and having 1232 01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:57,480 Speaker 5: a flow of how to get a quarterback into a 1233 01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:00,440 Speaker 5: rhythm and feeling good about what he's seeing and what 1234 01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 5: he got to go do and execute on each and 1235 01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:06,640 Speaker 5: every place. So, yeah, everybody can't be a coach in 1236 01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:08,360 Speaker 5: the National Football League, I don't think. 1237 01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:09,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's kind of been the talk now is that 1238 01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:14,200 Speaker 6: the guys should be sitting behind the staring quarterback or 1239 01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:16,600 Speaker 6: the quarterback who's been there he was never supposed to. Yeah, 1240 01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:19,440 Speaker 6: Sandy Dalton won this week, so it looks crazy. But 1241 01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:22,320 Speaker 6: then there's as you thats Cam to ce J Stroud. 1242 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:25,560 Speaker 6: Now the talk is Caleb Williams, maybe he's not ready 1243 01:03:25,800 --> 01:03:26,480 Speaker 6: to start playing. 1244 01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:30,160 Speaker 5: It's tough when you don't have And I won't say 1245 01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:33,240 Speaker 5: these guys don't have talent, but you don't have a coach. 1246 01:03:33,320 --> 01:03:36,120 Speaker 3: And I'm not taking anything away from these coaches. I'm 1247 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 3: just saying. 1248 01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:40,320 Speaker 5: There's no reason why they shouldn't be able to generate 1249 01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:43,560 Speaker 5: no offense when you can't generate no offense. 1250 01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:44,880 Speaker 3: I think that comes down to coaching. 1251 01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:49,280 Speaker 5: On our worst days in Philly, be A scored twenty 1252 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:54,120 Speaker 5: eight points and that's when Andy was like, he wasn't 1253 01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:56,680 Speaker 5: even called in the place when I was there. Mardy 1254 01:03:56,760 --> 01:03:58,600 Speaker 5: morning Wig, who was a great coordinator, was called in 1255 01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:04,480 Speaker 5: the place. But Andy here input and we still average 1256 01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 5: thirty points a game somewhere around that. So I just 1257 01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:09,480 Speaker 5: know what good coach it looked like. I know what 1258 01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:11,520 Speaker 5: Dan Reeves pouring to me. I know what Greg nap 1259 01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:17,880 Speaker 5: Jim more important to me. I had Bib Patrino Hcopy, 1260 01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:22,200 Speaker 5: I had Chip Kelly, and I had Andy, and so 1261 01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:25,960 Speaker 5: I've been around some of the best offensive minds, and 1262 01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:28,840 Speaker 5: so I know how you got to put a game 1263 01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:32,560 Speaker 5: play together in order to be successful on Sundays. 1264 01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 3: Well, we can talk football day.

This is your favorite 1286 01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:13,240 Speaker 3: because not having crazy Cam Russell. Yeah, Russell Lamar yourself, myself, Patrick, 1287 01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:17,080 Speaker 3: You're not in there. It's in the top ten. Bro. 1288 01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:20,360 Speaker 3: What's your fist? Mike? 1289 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:25,800 Speaker 4: Pat Mahomes Randall Cunningham because that's the first person that 1290 01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:29,919 Speaker 4: I like. How he revolutionized to his father, he played 1291 01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:33,640 Speaker 4: a major part. I think that Warren Moon is underrated. 1292 01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:35,960 Speaker 3: That legend. 1293 01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:41,720 Speaker 4: Make sure y'all checked legend. And Russell Wilson I think 1294 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:44,280 Speaker 4: is underrated too. I think it's it's unfortunate how his 1295 01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 4: career is playing out now. But we can't act like 1296 01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:49,120 Speaker 4: he didn't almost win two super bowl He should have won. 1297 01:06:49,160 --> 01:06:50,840 Speaker 4: He should have two super Bowls under his belt. Well, 1298 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:52,440 Speaker 4: he's the reason he didn't win the second one? 1299 01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:53,280 Speaker 3: Him? Was it? 1300 01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:57,000 Speaker 6: Pete Carroll him how and Whyshawn Lynz gave an interview 1301 01:06:57,520 --> 01:06:59,960 Speaker 6: and he said, if there's any other quarterback, he changed the. 1302 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:02,280 Speaker 3: Play in the huddle. It don't matter what the coach 1303 01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:05,000 Speaker 3: head coach gives you. I don't care about new quarterbacks. 1304 01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:08,600 Speaker 3: You just named. Russell got a super Bowl. Yeah, Patrick 1305 01:07:08,640 --> 01:07:11,439 Speaker 3: got a super Bowl. Ye. Lamar got two m VP, 1306 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:14,320 Speaker 3: no super Bowl. He's in my five. Yeah, Cam Gota 1307 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:20,240 Speaker 3: went to a super Bowl. Cam's my five them dudes. 1308 01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:24,720 Speaker 6: Man, I got past east bro Pat, you, Lamar, Warren 1309 01:07:25,240 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 6: and Kim and I would put an asterisk Washington. 1310 01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:32,040 Speaker 3: So RG three Yeah, Now. 1311 01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:34,520 Speaker 5: RG three didn't play as long because he got He 1312 01:07:34,520 --> 01:07:35,040 Speaker 5: didn't have a lot. 1313 01:07:35,080 --> 01:07:37,480 Speaker 6: They shouldn't have if he he towards a c L, 1314 01:07:37,560 --> 01:07:39,680 Speaker 6: they kept him in the game. They should have be Seattle. 1315 01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:41,640 Speaker 6: Seattle went to the Super Bowl and one that yet, 1316 01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:45,280 Speaker 6: but they're at home. The grass is terrible in Washington. 1317 01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:46,080 Speaker 3: You know you played there. 1318 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:49,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, we all felt like he's like cringe and watching 1319 01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:54,280 Speaker 5: RG three, it's ridiculous, like slide think about or you know, 1320 01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:57,040 Speaker 5: it's always next year.
