1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 1: Hi, and welcome for the official Good Morning Football Podcast.

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: I'm Will Selvin. You're the best moment this week so

3
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: far at the breakfast Table. Super Bowl fifty three has

4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 1: come and gone from a record setting low score to

5
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 1: an Edelman MVP. There was plenty to break down, so

6
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 1: let's take a listen to what's going on at the

7
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: breakfast table. Thirty two point nine points per game for

8
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 1: the Rams this season, but it was not the offensive

9
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 1: explosion we were all expecting from these two quarterbacks in

10
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,840
Speaker 1: this Super Bowl matchup. The sixteen gobine points the fewest

11
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:36,879
Speaker 1: between two teams in all Super Bowl history. Gentlemen, biggest

12
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,840
Speaker 1: takeaway as we sort of I don't know, I feel

13
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: like I've sort of like hungover from everything that happened

14
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 1: and was trying to piece it together here this morning.

15
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: Biggest takeaway. Julian Edelman is incredible. You know, one of

16
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 1: the best post season wide receivers of all time. He's

17
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: second to Jerry Rice, and catches he passes Michael Irvin,

18
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: and yards second to Jerry Rice, of course. And then

19
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: when you look at yards in the Super Bowl, how

20
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 1: about this right here? Jerry Rice number one with five

21
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: eighty nine. Lynn Swan three sixty four. You know, his

22
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: third on list, Julian Edelman with three thirty seven, just

23
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 1: ahead of Andre Reid. The other three guys on that

24
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: list are Hall of famers. Julian Edelman has shown up

25
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 1: big in the biggest of moments, and I get it

26
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 1: if you want to sit at home and argue and say, Nate, well,

27
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: what about his regular season? What about Pro Bowls? Julian

28
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: Edelman for his entire career, is played for the most

29
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: diverse offense in NFL history. He's not asked to put

30
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 1: up fifteen hundred yards every year. He's asked to show

31
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: up big in the biggest moments. And to me, that's

32
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: not just one of the best wide receivers in the postseason,

33
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 1: that's a Hall of Fame wide receiver. My takeaways Julian

34
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: Edelman monster six hundred yard games in the postseason For Edelman,

35
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 1: the offense heat was definitely the superstar, well deserving of

36
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: the MVP. My takeaways that if I could give away

37
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: an MVP last night, it would be Brian Flores. Just

38
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: take it, take it and go. We're talking offense and

39
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: how that's what's ruling the NFL. No defense won this

40
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: thing for them. They forced eight punts in the first

41
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: eight possessions for the Ramps, where the second best offense

42
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 1: and points per game in the National Football League this season.

43
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,239
Speaker 1: They sacked off four times, at the second most he's

44
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 1: been sacked all year. They hit him twelve. He had

45
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 1: been a hit more than eight times in a single

46
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: game this season. That interception to Gilmore, you guys, I

47
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: was waiting for it. I knew it was coming because

48
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: they had pressured him the entire game, made him uncomfortable,

49
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 1: erased the run. Girley couldn't really find a rhythm. It

50
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: was all so obvious all game long. And after that

51
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: Titans game, I talked about this a lot leading up

52
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: to this game. Something happened. They adjusted after the bye

53
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: after getting blown out by Tennessee. They've allowed just sixteen

54
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: point eight points a game that has top five in

55
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: a league. The defense word to turn around. They came

56
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: to play. They lose. Patrick Chung Floras still gets it done.

57
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 1: And if you are a Miami Dolphins fan this morning,

58
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: this is the one Patriots when you can get behind,

59
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 1: because that's the kind of guy you're getting next season.

60
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: Big day for the Dolphin. You mentioned Kay the hangover

61
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: that we have, and part of that is being irritated.

62
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: I'm this morning, I'm mad at the Rams, and I

63
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: think I speak for people who had Super Bowl parties yesterday,

64
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 1: who invited their friends over and plan the Rams offense.

65
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: What the hell was that? What the hell was that?

66
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: I'm talking about starting the game with eight straight punts,

67
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 1: getting nothing from Todd Gurley Again, Sean McVey comes out

68
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: and says, afterwards, I got out coached. We know, Sean,

69
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: you back badly out coach. I love you, man, but

70
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 1: but Belichick just put you over his knee. I'm tired

71
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: of you know what. The most frustrating part is, you

72
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: had a spanking last night. Yeah, I gotta think got

73
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: a big he might have got paddled last night. Peter.

74
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 1: There was never a trick play this crazy innovation. They

75
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: hadn't They couldn't get it going against the Saints, right,

76
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: they ran something nuts, they jump started the thing. They

77
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: come out even in the third quarter when they had

78
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: nothing and that first drive becaud Gurley gets a run.

79
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: Maybe we got it then girly nothing, girly not the

80
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: incomplete punt. I hate it. Where were the adjustments? I

81
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: feel like McVeigh adjusted his offense fewer times than Adam

82
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: Levine adjusted himself last night. It was nothing. And you

83
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: know what I'm thinking during that game, somebody gave me

84
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: the Saints on a plane. Can we get the Saints

85
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: here for thee and half? Because I know Drew Brees

86
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: would not have been held the three points. I know

87
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: they would not have been blanked. I'm sitting there frustrated

88
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: not to dig up the scar tissuet. The Rams didn't

89
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: show up on offense. I'm all things. They're changing the game.

90
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: I'm a genius. You're not changing squat. Give me the

91
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 1: Saints on a plane because they actually would have given

92
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: us something. I hate it, you know what I'm saying it. Look,

93
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to discredit the Rams victory over the Saints,

94
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: but I will say this. I spoke with McVeigh last

95
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: week in LA. I was in the building. I'm like this,

96
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: guys are dialed in. Spoke to them yesterday before the game.

97
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm on the field, I'm talking to Sean and he's saying,

98
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: we got it. We're good, we feel good. These guys

99
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: are great. We're up walked up and down that Ram

100
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: sideline talking to all the players. They were dialed in,

101
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: they thought they had the game plan. They got the

102
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: Mike Tyson treatment. They got punched in the face and

103
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: they never recovered punched back. The Chiefs were shut out

104
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: in the first half of the AFC Championship game. They

105
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 1: came back and scored thirty one points on thirty one

106
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: plays against the Patriots. The Rams were shut out and

107
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: they scored three points. I am disappointed in the Rams

108
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 1: and pig takeaway is what do we make of this team?

109
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 1: Because there are going to be free agents? Was this

110
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 1: a flash in the pan? And if it is a

111
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 1: flash in the pan, what do we make of McVeigh.

112
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 1: It was a two week build up of the greatest

113
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: coach of all time, this wonderful, wonder kid. Guess what

114
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: he got his lunch served to him yesterday? How does

115
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: he respond? Because I know right now he's frustrated, he's

116
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: in pain. But I'm not sure there's any answers to

117
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: how you could have changed things. That was horrendous. Well said,

118
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: We've got more of takeaways here at the This is

119
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: a breakfast table. There's no there's no breakfast on it.

120
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,600
Speaker 1: Maybe there's should be in the next couple of Hours movie, Batcakes.

121
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: Hello after this from Atlanta. This is a good morning football.

122
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle's touchdown in the fourth quarter was his sixth

123
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 1: of the postseason. That's the most buy a rookie. That's

124
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 1: wild an NFL history and postseason. Sony Michelle are the

125
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: many heroes for the Patriots last night, Bill Belichick and

126
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 1: Brady of course, let me remember their legacy set six

127
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: super Bowl six Lombardi trophies. Edelman has his thing going

128
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: on being named the MVP Best Beard in the game.

129
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: Who goes down though as the unsung hero for the

130
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: pad side of things in Super Bowl fifty three, I'll

131
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 1: go with my boy Kyle vanois, you know, former Lions

132
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: player who was basically traded away for scraps and then

133
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: he shows up to the legam Patriots and plays at

134
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 1: a high level. My men had three tackles, one sack,

135
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: two tackles for loss, and three QB hit three QB hits.

136
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: And there's a reason why Jared Goff at times was

137
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: uncomfortable while he's throwing off his back leg while he's

138
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: skipping a couple of balls, because he had that pressure

139
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 1: in his face all game long. A big part of

140
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 1: why the Rams had just sixty two yards and three

141
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 1: point four yards a carry, because my man was flying

142
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: all over the field. So the unsung hero is cal

143
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: vanois listen And this comes after the ANC Championship game

144
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 1: where he had ten tackles, two sacks, and a force fumble.

145
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 1: So Kyle vanois a guy who when he was traded

146
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: away just another bus. Let's see if Patriots can make

147
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 1: him special. Well, guess what they did. I'm gonna go

148
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: with to Ron Herman. It was interesting. John Harmon has

149
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 1: been there for a long time. He played one snap

150
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,720
Speaker 1: in the first half once app Patrick Chung goes down

151
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 1: with the injury. To Ron Harmon makes maybe the biggest

152
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: play that won't show up in the stat line on

153
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: the interception that Stefan Gilmore had. The Patriots had now

154
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: blitzed all game. No zero blitz is nothing. They've been

155
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: completely conservative. Then they sent the dogs and it was

156
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: to Ron Harmon On that interception by Stefan Gilmour, who's pressure.

157
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: If you watch the play, it's number twenty one who

158
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: comes and makes Jared Goff slip. An unbelievable performance by

159
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: Harmon who comes in after the Patrick Chung injury, and

160
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: that is so the Patriot way, so the Patriot way

161
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: that this guy's been there forever. One snap in the

162
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: first half. This is not a Malcolm Butler situation. He

163
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: was ready to play when they gave it to him,

164
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: and he made the play of the game that won't

165
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: show up in the statoye. And Chung's a hard player

166
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: to sort of you can't just grab anybody to do that.

167
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: The veteran leadership, the things that that he has to

168
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: sort of make those into adjustments and he really plays

169
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: like eighteen different positions out there. So everybody stepped up.

170
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: Shelton and obviously Harmon Gilmore, the entire defense sort of

171
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: came together as a team once it happened. I'm gonna

172
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: go with mccordy though, Jason mccordy, it was a storyline

173
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: that I was obsessed with going into the Super Bowl.

174
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: I got to work with dev I know him very well,

175
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: and they he always wanted to play with his brother

176
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: and his brother Jason for the last eight years with

177
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 1: the Titans, and then he played for the winless Browns.

178
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: Gets to the postseason for the first time this year

179
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: as a Patriot, and really this play right here, golf

180
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 1: holds onto the ball a second too long, and it

181
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: is a beautiful breakup by mccordy. Brandon Cooks robbed of

182
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: a touchdown which would have changed the game in my opinion.

183
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: So him making two really brilliant pass breakups and this one,

184
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: this one clearly the most memorable one. He is the

185
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: unsung hero. He's the one who stood at the podium

186
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,199
Speaker 1: yesterday and he said, we put up the headlines of

187
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: you saying we're too old, we suck. And he got

188
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: up off the podium and bounced. And I loved that

189
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 1: edge from the mccordy brother. I love that too. It

190
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,319
Speaker 1: was a great story and at a storybook ending, Oh yeah,

191
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: I would be lying to myself if I wasn't being genuine.

192
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 1: Here there's Hall of Fame players, superstars. For most of

193
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: the night, this was a battle between two Oregon State punters.

194
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: And I'm not even kidding, all right. So Ryan Allen,

195
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: the Patriots punter, and Johnny Hecker. This is what this was.

196
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: And let me tell you about Ryan Allen. Last year

197
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl, he does not punt a single time.

198
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: No punts in this one. Three times he pinned the

199
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: rams inside the seven yard land, and I'm not just

200
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: being funny. The way the Patriots defense was playing that

201
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: ends the drive right there. That is incredibly huge deal.

202
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,079
Speaker 1: Three times and it's all it's always Slater down there

203
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: downing it. At one point in the game, Johnny Hecker

204
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 1: has the longest punt in Super Bowl history and it

205
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,319
Speaker 1: was the highlight of the game. They played it in

206
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: the stadium, they put it up to people start cheering.

207
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: It's these two guys against each other. I saw some

208
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: stuff on Twitter that at one point before Julian started

209
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 1: getting off that if the if the Patriots offense and

210
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: not figured it out, that Ryan Allen was going to

211
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: get MVP chatter for the way he was punting. So

212
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: I will give you that. From zero punts in the

213
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: Super Bowl to one of their biggest weapons in the

214
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, Ryan Allen, Oregon State beaver who outduels Johnny Hecker.

215
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: That's it, guys, that with that game was about three

216
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: That's what it was. The Super Bowl much more ahead

217
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: with Peter and Kyle and Nate and a masterful performance

218
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: again from Bill Belichick, so many wins. His sixth ring

219
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: trays used the word pulverized to describe what he did

220
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 1: to this high flying offense for the Rams, and I

221
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 1: keep thinking, was this his best performance? But then it's

222
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: really hard for me to think that anything could be

223
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 1: better than a very improbable twenty eight to three comeback.

224
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: That said, this is a team that lost to the Steelers,

225
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 1: that lost to the Titans, that lost Josh Gordon, that

226
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: didn't start with a one that had forty one year

227
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: old quarterback, and they somehow adjusted and made it happen.

228
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: This might be the most impressive playoffs for the Patriots

229
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,839
Speaker 1: for playoffs. Indeed, K I agree with you, and I

230
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 1: would go back even further. I'd say over the off season,

231
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: everyone's unhappy. Yeah, you've got you know, Brady's physical trainer

232
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 1: is on the plane? Is he not on the plane?

233
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,680
Speaker 1: At the on the facility Brady was on, it didn't

234
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,719
Speaker 1: show up. And then you had all the players that

235
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: were lost, Dion Lewis and Nate Soldier, list goes on,

236
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,079
Speaker 1: Malcolm Butler, whoever you want to name people legitimately thought

237
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,080
Speaker 1: it was over. I'm one of them. I thought the

238
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: Chiefs this was their year, and I was proven wrong.

239
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 1: I gotta shoe in my mouth right now, and I've

240
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: got egg all over my face, and Belichick did it again.

241
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: This guy is unbelievable. He found a way. It was

242
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: all season long, and yeah, okay, that playoff run and

243
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: that December turnaround, that special stuff. Not a lot of

244
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: coaches can do that. Yeah. I got this size twelve

245
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 1: in my mouth as well and scrambled eggs all over

246
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: the mouth face. You know. The middle of the season,

247
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: I looked at the camera and said that the Pagots

248
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 1: aren't going to make the Super Bowl, said this isn't

249
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 1: your season. You guys won't make it. And they came

250
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: at me and they said, Nate, just ride the wave.

251
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: We will be there. And guess what they hear. I

252
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 1: would say that it is as fine as coaching performance.

253
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: It's his latest, and if it's his latest, it's as greatest.

254
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: So for me, I love the fact that he's able

255
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: to motivate these men that really needed motivation. This question

256
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: comes down to, was this better than the last Patriots

257
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: Ram super ye the ultimate shocker? And my answer is yes.

258
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 1: I look at that last Patriots seem to beat the Rams.

259
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: I see ty Law, I see Willie McGinnis, I see

260
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: Richard Seymour. I don't see those guys on this defense,

261
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: they had an incredible night. They don't have those studs Juggernauts.

262
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: They don't have the Juggernauts, and they just saw the

263
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 1: Rams with three points. I think it's Belichick's greatest performance

264
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: ever in the Super Bowl. Edeldog finished with one hundred

265
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: forty one receiving yards. Guys, let's do a little believe

266
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,679
Speaker 1: it or not here in Atlanta. This is the fewest

267
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: points any team is scored in winning the Super Bowl.

268
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: So let me ask you this. As great as Edelman was,

269
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: and he was twelve targets, clutch plays, should a defensive

270
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 1: player have won Super Bowl MVP? Yes, I believe it

271
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 1: should have happened. Kay, I think it should have been

272
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 1: Stefinn Gilmore. There's almost kind of an unwritten rule though,

273
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: to get the defensive MVP. EFP score a touchdown. Malcolm

274
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 1: Smith scored a touchdown, Larry Brown scored a touchdown. Von

275
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 1: just wrecked the whole world. Edelman was great, he didn't score.

276
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: We can get into the numbers of it. Gilmore, It's

277
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: not just the interception you see in the highlight. Packs

278
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: hit a forced clumbole. He hit three pass breakups and

279
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 1: five tackles of all people. Big Calais Campbell from the

280
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars last night was watching the game and tweeted

281
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 1: out furious that stuff found Gilmore did not when I

282
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 1: got five thousand retweets. I feel like the defensive players

283
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: around the league were always very sensitive about rules and

284
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: penalties thought this was supposed to be there to night,

285
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: and I happen to agree with them. Stephan Garlmore was

286
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,679
Speaker 1: a monster. I mean, I don't want to argue with

287
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: you because argue Nate. If he would have got it,

288
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: I would have been fine with it. But I will

289
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: argue with you because if Julian Edelman doesn't have the

290
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: game that they have, the game is not at at

291
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 1: three and it comes down to a field goal like

292
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 1: we've seen in Lennya's Super Bowls. They held the Rims

293
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: at three points in night. The defense was really good, okay,

294
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: but if Julian Edelman doesn't have the game that he has,

295
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: they will move the ball like they did. They had

296
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: five hundred yards last year without Julian Ediman in the

297
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and Julian Edim had one forty one this

298
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: year and too, and he only converted three downs in

299
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: this entire game. All of them were Edelemen. Talk about it. Now,

300
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 1: let me actually this, Kyle, if Julian Edelman didn't play

301
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: in this game, would they win? I don't know. Maybe

302
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: Chris Helgan could have done it. Chris. I love Chris Holgan.

303
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: He's one of my favorite players. You couldn't get open yesterday. Nah.

304
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: But if you say this, what do you got? It's

305
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,839
Speaker 1: easy to pile on that thought, right, darnay. But to

306
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,319
Speaker 1: Kyle's point, all season has been offense. Fifty four fifty

307
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 1: one was a game we saw this year, Saints Ram's

308
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: Chiefs gotta we heard it all. This was a defensive game.

309
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: This is defensive game. And if it was a defensive game,

310
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 1: you could say the best defensive player on the field

311
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: should have won the most valuable player. Stefan Gilmour was

312
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: the best defensive player on the field for either team.

313
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: I'm with Kyles when it would one hundred percent been

314
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: justified Stefano, who was a first team All Pro all

315
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 1: season and the best player in their defense all year.

316
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: Is it such a crime in a thirteen three game,

317
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: in the era of big offenses to actually reward the

318
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: defensive player. I said that I agree. The first thing

319
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: I said is if he would have got it, I

320
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: would have been okay with it. He had an amazing game.

321
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman, from the start of the game to the

322
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 1: finish of the game, was the best player on the field.

323
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: To me, a buck forty one ten catches on twelve targets.

324
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 1: Not to mention, this is a defense that has and

325
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 1: Dominican sue aaronald Who's supposed to put presh On Brady

326
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: a key to Liba Marks Speter back in linebackers that

327
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 1: are supposedly the fastest in business. They bracket him, they

328
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: zone him, they man him. Joan Edelman still comes down

329
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: with big time place and not even in traffic. My

330
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: man was routing these dudes. It was open about three

331
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: or four yards. I'm saying, obviously I'm a little bit

332
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: biased because I'm an offensive player and a wide receiver.

333
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 1: Either guy could have won it. Sure, I just I'm

334
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: a firm believer that without Julian Edelman this game comes

335
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: down to a field goal, and with Gregg the legserline

336
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 1: on the other side, the Ramps could have kicked a

337
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: long one and won it. That's all I'm saying. Can

338
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: I shift gears on Edelman, JIMFB and memories. I remember

339
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, we did a whiteboard topic. Okay,

340
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 1: we're talking about Tom Brady, and the question was something

341
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 1: along the lines of when it's all setting down and

342
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: you close your eyes and think of Tom Brady's career,

343
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: who's the receiver that you think of that he's throwing too?

344
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: And I remember some of us said Troy Brown, and

345
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: I think Kay and Peters said it's West Welker for sure,

346
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: that's done. Now I think it's Edelman. I think it's Adam.

347
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: Adam's got three Super Bowl rings or two seasons later.

348
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: I love Welker, I love Dion Branch, I love Troy Brown.

349
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: When Brady's all said done with us, his guy through

350
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: Brady's career is number eleven. It's Edelman that's the guy.

351
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: And it's those postseason moments where he comes in clutch.

352
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: You don't talk with that field goal. That field doesn't

353
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: happen without that twenty five yard catch. The game winning

354
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: touchdown does not happened without a huge play by Edelman there.

355
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: I don't think Chris Hogan could do it because it's

356
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: great of a teammate as Edelman says, he is. It

357
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: is what Belichick's ed who's at the podium, a guy who,

358
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, has some gene that when the biggest

359
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: moment is there, when all the noise in the world

360
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: and that stadium is shaking, he does not lose his

361
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: nerve at all. Yeah, it's a Kyle's point. He used

362
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: to be the sidekick. It was like, oh, it's cute,

363
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 1: he's former quarterback. Now he's an equal. Super Bowl in thee.

364
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: I said it earlier in the show. I heard from

365
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: someone in Edelman's camp. He gets out of the locker room.

366
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 1: There's buses supposed to take the team back to the hotel,

367
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: but the MVP gets in an suv awesome, and they

368
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 1: point him there and he's like all right, gets in

369
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: with his friend and he's kind of still in the

370
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 1: meal moment. Then they opened the doors to the hotel

371
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: and there's a thousand Patriots fans at eleven thirty at

372
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: night outside of a hotel waiting to receive him. And

373
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: that's when Julian Edelman finally realizes it's about me. It's

374
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: not about the Patriot Way for a second, Can I

375
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: have a moment It's about me? He felt like a

376
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 1: rock star, and he is converted the only third downs

377
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 1: on the night, all three of them. We're all packed

378
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: to get back to New York, hopping on the flight

379
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: right after this out of Atlanta. Will be on Good

380
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: Morning Football the rest of the week, but we did

381
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:18,360
Speaker 1: not pack the white boards specifically for this segment. Let's

382
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: have a little fun here on if you can play

00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: along at home at hashtack GM if as we said

384
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 1: six as you said says six rings for Tom Brady

385
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: and Bill Belichick six. The non sports dynasty that reminds

386
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: you most of the Patriots is what okay, you guys

387
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: can't play along at home? It's kind of a red

388
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,120
Speaker 1: wedding last night, just a little bit not great hashtag GM.

389
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:43,680
Speaker 1: If you what do he got shrikes? I'll go first.

390
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: I'll go with the Boston rock band that's been doing

391
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: it since the seventies and everyone always thinks they're just

392
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 1: gonna eventually not have that high grew. I'm going with Arrows.

393
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: I'm going with Steven Tyler, Pie the whole crew, the

394
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 1: whole crew. These guys were in the seventies, relevant had

395
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: a little dip in the eighties, came back in the nineties.

396
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 1: Here we are two thousands. It's two thousand nineteen. They

397
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,719
Speaker 1: played one of the big events here in the Super role.

398
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 1: Everyone's been talking about the Aerosmith brought the house down.

399
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: I'm like Aerosmith. Yes, yes, Aerosmith. It doesn't matter the year.

400
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,359
Speaker 1: They're still doing it. Give me Aerosmith, give me Boston

401
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 1: and sent Trady's got a gun, Baby, it's it. What

402
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: do you got, na? I have the perfect one. It's

403
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: a long lasting dynasty and a run of something that

404
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: some people have fatigue from. But if you really break

405
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: it down, you better respect these damn numbers. Talked about

406
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 1: it mass and furious. Man, all right, I don't like

407
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 1: a Nate. It's trash. It's not good acting. It's garbage.

408
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: That's true. Scoreboard Jack the number Okay, Tokyo Drift, that

409
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 1: one doesn't count, but the rest of them. No, that

410
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 1: was the Matt Castle season. The Tokyo Drift thing, it's

411
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: pretty good. Looks like you enjoyed it, Like the lived

412
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 1: life amount of time. I'll never get this. Put this

413
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: up right here. I want to check the numbers. I

414
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: never saw a single episode of the show. They got

415
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 1: one hundred and eight Emmy nominations one hundred and eight.

416
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 1: I feel like Belichick was like on the Browns was

417
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: like Frasier on cheers. Belicheck and the Browns was Frasier

418
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: on cheers. Then he goes to Patriots and he's a

419
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: different guy. I think McDaniels is your David Hyde pierced

420
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: mister Kraft is John mahoney in the chair. I never

421
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 1: saw Frasier. It dominated for an whole era, and there's polarizing.

422
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 1: That's the Patriots. Frasier Frasier cream, feasier cream. Let's keep

423
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 1: a coat here with a little whiteboard. Monday from Atlanta,

424
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 1: the Patriots held the league's second highest scoring offense to

425
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: three points. That's crazy. The Rams offensive performance in his

426
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifty three was the biggest letdown since what

427
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 1: all right? I'll say a movie that got a lot

428
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: of hype, and when I saw it, I was like,

429
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: it's just I and it's actually fitting because this describes

430
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 1: the Rams offense. Not a fan of h was fantastic,

431
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 1: but it's like the offense. It was like, what's going on?

432
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: Where's where's Todd gurleya going with the choirt plays okay?

433
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: When that kid's little toy goes off. Man, my heart stopped.

434
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 1: You got it out of mine. Take the battery of

435
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: the stupid batteries and where do you think you're living? Um,

436
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 1: I'll give this an La reference too. When I was

437
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,239
Speaker 1: brand new in La, I was twenty three years old,

438
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: didn't have a lot of money, didn't know what I

439
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: was doing. I thought I'd go to the Santa Monica Pier.

440
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 1: That's a cool place to go. And I saw something

441
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 1: I've never seen before. I'm like, I gotta buy this,

442
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: and it was the biggest disappointment in my life. You

443
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: gotta be kidding me. With the Dippin' Dots ice Cream

444
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 1: of the future, one spoonful and spit it out. No

445
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: one who's eating Dippin' Dots doesn't want to just be

446
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 1: eating ice cream, the ice cream of the past and

447
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: the present. They have an ice cream of the future

448
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: for forty years Dippin' dots. That was what the Rams

449
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: did last night. Yes, I bought it from the Continental Arena. Delightful.

450
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 1: Go with this one. The last Netflix documentary you all

00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: Every day there's a new one. I've got to see.

459
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 1: I do all the time. There's only six parts each

460
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: parts four hours. You gott if you have to. I'm

461
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: an old school guy like Ken Burns. Give me a

462
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,399
Speaker 1: good Civil War duck and I'm here for it. I

463
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 1: don't need this flash in the pan stuff. I haven't

464
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 1: watched it yet. You're not. I'll cut up. I will

465
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 1: see it eventually. This crazy one about Ted Bundy, I'm good.

466
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 1: I'm good. There was such a light subject matter too,

467
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: about serial killer. Yeah, all right, one more here out

468
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: of Monday, coming to you from Super Bowl fifty three,

469
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,479
Speaker 1: and that might have been last night. Right behind its

470
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski's final game. The fictional character. The best epitomizes

471
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:53,439
Speaker 1: Gronk and the career of Gronk is what a fictional character.

472
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: I got it, I got it, thank you. I like

473
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 1: to hold it. This way it makes it cool. Um,

474
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 1: I feel like Carson. This guy right here, Jesse Pinkman

475
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 1: about Break. He is a young childlike lovable. He is

476
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 1: the sidekick to Walter White, who would be Brady. He

477
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 1: remember at the end, Pinkman wanted to escape. All he

478
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:13,719
Speaker 1: wanted was to get the hell out of there. He'd

479
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: been through so much his body and his mind. The

480
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: most lovable guy on the greatest show of the generation.

481
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,959
Speaker 1: Just like Brady, but just like Gronk on the Patriots.

482
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,879
Speaker 1: Jesse pink it's great. I'm going with wreck it. Ralph.

483
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: I think this pretty much describes Gronc. I mean, he's

484
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: an absolute monster. Sometimes he's looked at as the bad guy,

485
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 1: but really he's a good guy. Without Without Gronk, they

486
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: don't win all these games. And on top of that,

487
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: when he decides to come back for one more year,

488
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 1: he's gonna break the internet. Is that you think he

489
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: and Vanelope he had a thing enough to tell a

490
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 1: friend Zone to friends Zone, We're gonna go back to

491

Speaker 1: every Weekler was like forty five when he was playing

494
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 1: the Funds coolest guy in the world in somebody's garage.

495
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 1: His office was a bathroom and a diner, but it

496
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: was the coolest guy ever. Funds are really is anybody investigated?

497
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 1: It hangs out with these high school kids. He's like

498
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 1: forty anyway, Sorry, Peter, there's a special whiteboard segment from HL.

499
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: We can pack them up and take them back to

500
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 1: New York. Who guys ever guessed the same thing once

501
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 1: in three out three years of doing the show? Folks,

502
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 1: those guys are gonna do. Yeah, it's gonna do more money,

503
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: won't problems, It's gonna make fun of things. Meet anybody

504
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:31,399
Speaker 1: are investigator born in nineteen thirty kids born in the

505
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: sixties after this? Obviously I agree with Ka on this one.

506
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: You can have to fund Gilmore or Brian Flores as

507
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 1: your mbps. Now, there are a lot of ideas flying

508
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: around the NFL after Sunday, some more believable than others.

509
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 1: Is Tom Brady the greatest player of all time? Did

510
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: we see the last of Gronk? Will Peter ever get

511
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 1: his voice back? We're seeing if we're buying into any

512
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: of it with a little believe it or not? The

513
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 1: time for another edition of Belief Believe it or not. Hey,

514
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: first statement, there's no arguing that Tom Brady is the

515
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,199
Speaker 1: greatest quarterback of all time. But let's go step further here.

516
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: Tom Brady is the greatest football player of all times.

517
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 1: Is tough, dregs, Believe it or not? Okay. I got

518
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: heated with our producer in the morning. Meeting our producer.

519
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 1: I said, you can't do that's a that's a show.

520
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: That's not a three seconds, three hours. That's three hours.

521
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 1: That's the entire offseason. But I will present you another option.

522
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,400
Speaker 1: That's what I'll do. Because Brady versus whoever, I'm gonna

523
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: go with Jim Brown. Jim Brown the legendary Brown's running back,

524
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: and it's because of the other ways that other people

525
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: revere him. It was before my time, sir. I don't know.

526
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: But when Jim Brown is in a room, as he

527
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 1: was at the NFL Honors, people stop in their tracks

528
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 1: and pay homage. It's different than Montana. It's differ than

529
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: the name of Jim Brown. Guys, really quickly the resume

530
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,400
Speaker 1: if you need it. Played only nine years in the league,

531
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,360
Speaker 1: led the league in rushing in eight of them, eight

532
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,479
Speaker 1: time first team All Pro. He averaged five point two

533
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 1: yards per carry over his career. Can I say when

534
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: they play somebody's highlights to a flute, you know it's

535
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 1: an old soul. Listen to this. In two thousand and two,

536
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:58,959
Speaker 1: he was voted the greatest player of all time when

537
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 1: they took a vote. All right, and there was twelve

538
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,439
Speaker 1: teams in the NFL when he started, right, twelve teams

539
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: and he did it, broke the rushing record, broke everything.

540
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: Here's the one I love. Twelve games season. The rushing

541
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: record for single year was eleven forty six stood forever.

542
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 1: He comes in his second year in the league and

543
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 1: runs for fifteen twenty seven, runs for more than five

544
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 1: hundred more yards, and went insane, insane, and the way

545
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 1: others respect him. I'll put Jim Brown in the comment.

546
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,120
Speaker 1: Brady's got the titles. Jim Brown might have the prestige. Also,

547
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:34,159
Speaker 1: the greatest lax player every Yeah, he was All American

548
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 1: lacrosse player yeah. Um. And also they didn't pass the ball, yeah,

549
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 1: so they kind of knew that Brown was getting it.

550
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 1: He's going to get the ball. So we had this

551
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 1: question posed in the morning meeting in I immediately thought

552
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: Jim Brown, So you took him off the table. But

553
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: then I'll start breaking down the actual question. Right, the

554
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: best player ever? I guess with accomplishments, you can't argue

555
00:25:55,040 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: against Brady best football football football player. I'm going with

556
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:05,120
Speaker 1: Deon Sanders, okay, because I feel like when he got

557
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: the ball in his hands, there was nobody that pumped

558
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: more fear into anybody in his era. Now, it's one

559
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: thing to be a shutdown. Oh my gosh, look at this.

560
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 1: Just I'm glad you answered this name. Just we watched

561
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:22,400
Speaker 1: the highlights. One thank you one. One element being a cornerback,

562
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 1: I shut down cornerback. That's tough to do, right, we

563
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: don't get those every generation. To be one of the

564
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 1: best returners ever, that's tough to do. Like Devin Hester

565
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,679
Speaker 1: did it. But that was pretty much all he did.

566
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,159
Speaker 1: And then there were times where they actually put him

567
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: out there wide receiver and he made play. So it

568
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 1: gets You can break it down and say he wasn't

569
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 1: the biggest tackler in the world, and he moved around

570
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 1: a little bit, but wherever he went, he was fantastic.

571
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: Early in his career, when he landed somewhere, he won

572
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,360
Speaker 1: a Championship, and when he touched the ball, he was dynamic,

573
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: and it got to the point where he was so

574
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 1: good at Steve Harvey said this, he was celebrating from

575
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 1: the forties. It got so bad that when other guys

576
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 1: would intercept the ball, they would immediately turn around and

577
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: look for Dan. These are the fastest, the strongest, the

578
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,639
Speaker 1: most athletic men in the world getting paid money to

579
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 1: do a job. If you're a cornerback, go ahead and

580
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 1: return it out of yourself. Yeah, they're turn around and

581
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 1: give it to Dan. So for me, the best football

582
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,879
Speaker 1: player ever is Dan Centers There. Not to mention you

583
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,160
Speaker 1: also play Major League baseball. Yeah, and he hit three hundred,

584
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: and he hopped out a limb and ran the fastest

585
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 1: forty times ever. I'm just saying it, like legends or something. Yeah, legends,

586
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 1: versatility is for Dan. You gotta get you get really

587
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: caught up in the hair splitting of the terms here

588
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 1: best best player versus greatest and then greatest in companies,

589
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: encompasses legacy and contributions to society everything. I'm just gonna

590
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: keep its real simple and go with Jerry Rice. I'm

591
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 1: gonna go with Jerry Rice. Um I'm gonna actually give

592
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 1: it a modern tie, though, um, for what Rice has

593
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 1: accomplished and the numbers that he put up. Here's the

594
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: modern tie I've got. Look at this guy, Michael Thomas

595
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: on the Saints gotten off to an unbelievable start to

596
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: his career, right, Michael Thomas just had a fourteen hundred

597
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 1: yards season. Here's what he would have to do to

598
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 1: catch Jerry Rice's numbers. Michael Thomas, he has to have

599
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 1: fourteen hundred yards every single season for the next fourteen seasons,

600
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: the last of which you wou'd be thirty nine years old,

601
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 1: and then he can catch Jerry Rice. Don't forget my

602
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,640
Speaker 1: friends is Montana and young. Yes, Jerry Rice was playing

603
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: wide receiver and forty two years old and catching touchdown

604
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 1: passes from Matt Hasselbeck. Still doing it. Forget about it.

605
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: Put it to bed Rice. That's my guy. We're praising

606
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman for having one hundred and fifteen catches in

607
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 1: the postseason, which is amazing. Jerry Rice has one hundred

608
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,959
Speaker 1: and fifty one catches in the postseason. It's insane. Here's

609
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 1: the problem with your answers, and I like all of them.

610
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 1: Help me understand the winning part of it because we're talking,

611
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 1: as you very clearly said, greatest football player. To me,

612
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: that's the one who wins the most, has the most wins.

613
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 1: So how can you not give it to Tom Brady

614
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 1: If he has nine conference championships and nobody has more

615
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: rings than he does. That's where it gets a little tricky.

616
00:28:58,240 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: And his quarterback, and he has more to do with

617
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: the game than any of those people do. Because you

618
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 1: were going to see another player do that. I don't

619
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 1: think we are. I feel like the guys that we named,

620
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: you put them in any other jersey. Yeah, they're still

621
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,719
Speaker 1: the greatest football players to ever play. Tom Brady goes

622
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: to to Cleveland Browns, he's not the goat. Jerry Rice

623
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 1: bowl rings, Dion's got two, I believe right. Yes, Jim

624
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 1: Brown didn't playing a Super Bowl, but an NFL championship.

625
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 1: Like they're all winners, but Brady's the greatest winner winner,

626
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: no doubt. Jim Brown was lesly in rushing eight to

627
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: nine years yeah and last early. Could have could have

628
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 1: played for more years, but left early to go to

629
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 1: Hollywood where he was a Hollywood style played fireball on

630
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 1: the running man. Well, he's in Mars attacks. Hello. Next

631
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 1: downbelieve or believe it or not? Next up? Super Bowl

632
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 1: fifty three was Rob Gronkowski's last NFL game ever. Believe

633
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 1: that or not? Kyle? Yeah, And I hate sad Gronk

634
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: and makes sad Kyle and everything like that. I am.

635
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 1: I want to read a quote here. This is from

636
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 1: the Boston Globe and he talked to Gronk a few

637
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 1: days before the Super Bowl. Uh. He said, there's ups

638
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 1: and downs right now, but try to imagine getting hit

639
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 1: all the time and trying to be where you want

640
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: to be every day in life. It's tough. It's difficult.

641
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: I take hits to the thigh. I take hits to

642
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 1: the head. Abusing your body. It's not what your brain wants.

643
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 1: When your body is abused, it can bring down your mood.

644
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: This is Gronk before the Super Bowl. I think it's

645
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 1: gonna happen. I think he's gonna walk away. It's be

646
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 1: very Gronk to walk away with a party on a

647
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 1: high note. And you know, I follow this story really

648
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: closely because it's near and dear to me. Everything you

649
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: read is that he has everything from standing offers from

650
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: Vince McMahon to wrestle afterwards. You always hear about he

651
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 1: saves all his money and lives off endorsement money. This

652
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: to me looks like a goodbye the way he spent

653
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 1: the week there. Again, I don't have sources. I'm not

654
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 1: connected inside the Patriots. I just have intuition in watching

655
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: him and what Gronk has a lot of other players don't.

656
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 1: Bronc has options. I think he's walking away. Yeah, he's

657
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: definitely a superstar on and off the field. You know.

658
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: I feel like once this settles down and Gronk sits

659
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 1: on his couch in this offseason, he walks around with

660
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 1: his brothers, and he goes and shoots hoops at the

661
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 1: local gym, he starts to feel like he's a little

662
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: bit healthy. In that Super Bowl, he didn't look like

663
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: old Gronk. He didn't look like the Gronk that was

664
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: falling apart. He looked like dominant Gronk. And there's something

665
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 1: to be said about the addiction that these Patriots have

666
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 1: to playing the game of football. Tom Brady is addicted.

667
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 1: He can't live without football. Nobody's like Junie Elleman grew

668
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: out his beard and didn't care because the only thing

669
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: that matter was winning a Super Bowl. Even though Gronk

670
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: has that demeanor that sometimes making a big goof he

671
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 1: loves the football. He loves football just the same. So

672
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 1: for me, I felt like this all seasons gonna come

673
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: around and he's gonna sit back and say, you know what,

674
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 1: I still want to play this game. And I'm glad

675
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 1: that you read that quote, because I got a quote

676
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 1: that I read and you know, it gets me emotional

677
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: every time that I read it. Quote. It simply just says, yo,

678
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: joy fiesta. I am party. He is party, and he

679
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: has a party on the field, and he doesn't want

680
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: to sit on his couch and not be part of

681
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 1: the sport. I'd say, twenty nine years old, no like.

682
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 1: But Gail Sayers retired after five years, Jim Brown retired

683
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 1: after nine years. Gronk has three championship rings. It's gonna

684
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: go down as the greatest ten end of his generation.

685
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: And I'd be in the conversation for greatest ten end

686
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 1: of all time. If he's not healthy and he's got

687
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: this new love in his life. His girlfriend is everywhere

688
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: with him, and he's satisfied personally and professionally, I would

689
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: not be shocked if we never see Gronk play again,

690
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 1: and there will be no knock to his career. He

691
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: ended on a great note. Three years did it write,

692
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: and he could have a party today. I almost don't

693
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: need to see Gronk play ever again because it ended

694
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 1: so perfectly. I totally agree. It's like a storybook ending

695
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 1: no player. We've heard Aaron Rodgers say it. So many

696
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: players don't get to leave on their own two feet

697
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 1: the way that they want to. If this was that,

698
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: more power to him, and I'd be happy for him.

699
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, Mike get all the credit. But

700
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: is there another Patriots player who's been behind the current

701
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 1: the entire time? We make our picks from the real

702
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 1: power player in Patriots Country. So let's look back at

703
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: the incredible run Tom Brady and but Belichick have had together.

704
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:06,960
Speaker 1: Let's just go to the memory lane. Six super Bowl

705
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 1: wins in nineteen seasons. But aside from those two, who's

706
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: the Patriot that you most associate with that success? It's

707
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: a very interesting question because those two have given such

708
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: stability to the organization. But should all the credit be

709
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 1: given to them? Now? I feel like who's third? Yes,

710
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: the third guy? I will say, a third guy and

711
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: I feel like he actually is the first guy above

712
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 1: Billichick and Brady. You know, when you think about the championships,

713
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: right the six rings, you think about the Super Bowl appearances,

714
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 1: it's impressive, the consecutive AC title game, it's impressive. The

715
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 1: winning season, all that, it's impressive. But what's more impressive

716
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 1: than that being worth six point six billion dollars? A

717
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 1: guy who bought the Patriots for one hundred and seventy

718
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 1: two million dollars now were three point seven billion. The

719
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 1: guy who started a paper manufacturing conglomerate who said he

720
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 1: started on a hunch because he anticipated the global trade

721
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: was gonna kick up. How About a guy who also

722
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:10,839
Speaker 1: has staken the New England Revolution, Marshall Maltz Ultimate Fighting Championship.

723
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: How about twenty seventeen, a guy who started the professional

724
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: video game team in Boston, part of the recently formed

725
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: overwatched eight Sports League, which is huge. If you don't know,

726
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 1: not you know? And how about this the most important

727
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 1: thing at all these numbers, all this wealth that he has,

728
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 1: he's donated over one hundred million to charities over the

729
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,840
Speaker 1: course of his career. I get it. We'll praise Bill Belichick,

730
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: We'll praise Toman Brady, But there's a guy sitting above

731
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: it all that isn't above it all. He is one

732
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: of them. He comes down on the field. He's wearing

733
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 1: his Air Force ones, his suit, no tie, very casual.

734
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: He talks to the richest men and women in the world.

735
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: He shakes hands with the brokest people in the world.

736
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 1: He can share meals with the fancies of people and

737
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 1: also embrace the guy that's cleaning up the facility. Robert

738
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: Craft is a man of the people. I've never met him,

739
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 1: but when I see Bill Belichick and I see Tom Brady,

740
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 1: I also see Robert Kraft. That's a guy we should

741
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:09,959
Speaker 1: be talking about a lot. He's a Hall of Famer

742
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,800
Speaker 1: and he does the right way. They can't argue that

743
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: he's not Pavaratti's not Domingo, but he's the other guy.

744
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 1: You're right, and he's not over He's not overbearing. There's

745
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,839
Speaker 1: some as we know, there's some owners. You know, they

746
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 1: like p Diddy in the nineties. All in the video,

747
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 1: he's a little bit, he's a little removed. They got

748
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 1: in no respect for the Patriots. The CBS cameras never

749
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 1: go to Robert Kraft. Um kidding him. I've met him

750
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 1: a couple of times, who has been great to me.

751
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 1: But you can just see the way players speak about him,

752
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,239
Speaker 1: the way they react to him on camera. What an

753
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 1: impact I actually they said, he's a Hall of Famer.

754
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 1: It's amazing. Eddie de Bartelo three years ago, Jerry Jones

755
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,280
Speaker 1: two years ago, Pat Bowland. This year, it is time

756
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 1: for that Robert Kraft push into the Hall of Fame

757
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 1: while you know, at the very least during the height

758
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,680
Speaker 1: of their powers, Like, let's not do this ten years

759
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: from now. Yeah, there should be a push this year

760
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 1: to get Robert Kraft in the Hall of Fame because

761
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 1: Jerry got in, right, Yeah, there might be no more

762
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 1: accomplished owner already in football. For all the victories he

763
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 1: watches our program, who does he got to made him

764
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 1: on the field last year before Pat sages and he goes,

765
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 1: you guys are crazy in the morning. There you go.

766
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: That's right, tweet the showmister, that's the craft plea is

767
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:21,879
Speaker 1: someone we need to tweet. I'm gonna go with the player.

768
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the player who has made so

769
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,320
Speaker 1: many clutch plays and has been a part of so

770
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,320
Speaker 1: many moments, and I love early Patriots defense David Patton,

771
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:33,319
Speaker 1: David Gibbon, but later era Patriots have been dictated by

772
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 1: clutch moments by Julian Edelman. That's my third guy. I

773
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 1: go Brady Belichick Edelman, and I think of three plays

774
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 1: or three moments in particular. The first one, I go

775
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: to that AFC Divisional Around game. They're down fourteen points

776
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 1: twice Jules Julian Edelman throws the dime to Danny m

777
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,399
Speaker 1: and Dola. This one puts them back into this game.

778
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 1: They would eventually go on to win and then go

779
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 1: on to beat the Seahawks in the Super Bowl. How

780
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: about two years ago against Atlanta, they're down eight points,

781
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 1: they're trying to make something happened here. It might be

782
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: the most dramatic catch in Patriots Super Bowl history not

783
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:07,760
Speaker 1: made by David Tyree. This one here is by Julian Edelman.

784
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 1: It's the juggling catch, and it's called it the Julian Juggle.

785
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 1: Save the Super Bowl and absolutely cemented him in Patriots Lure.

786
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 1: And then how about capping off what has been a

787
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 1: tumultuous season, missing the first four games, coming off in

788
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 1: ACL and being the Super Bowl MVP. You want to

789
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,799
Speaker 1: talk about Mount Rushmore. I've got Julian Edelman right up

790
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 1: there with Belichick and Brady and Nate. If you want

791
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,359
Speaker 1: to go craft, I'll give you that too. Edelman right

792
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 1: up there. I think he defines this generation of Patriots football.

793
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 1: He's so Patriots that hurts. It's everything they're all about.

794
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 1: It's incredible. I'm gonna look something completely different, Nate. You

795
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,400
Speaker 1: talked about Robert Kraft being kind of above it all.

796
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to the guy who's beneath it all,

797
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go with Ernie Adams. And if you're

798
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:48,840
Speaker 1: not paying attentional, you don't know who That is. His

799
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 1: label inside the organization. Last I saw was quote director

800
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,560
Speaker 1: of football Research, and we got a shot of Ernie.

801
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:59,359
Speaker 1: Ernie Abams has been with Bill Belichick for decades, as well,

802
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 1: as Slate put it one of the Svengalis and Rasputants

803
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 1: behind the Pat's magic. That's how they put it. Back

804
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 1: when Bill Belichick was with the Browns, reportedly the owner

805
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: Art Modell had his entire staff in front of him

806
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: in a room and said, I'll give ten thousand dollars

807
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 1: to anybody in this room and can tell me what

808
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 1: Ernie Adams does. Nobody had an answer, No intern, no

809
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 1: pay Who dying for that money? Nobody had an answer,

810
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 1: Matt Light said in two thousand and eight Total Mystery,

811
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen Stephen Gaskowski, the Kicker, speaking of Ernie Adams,

812
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 1: I can't tell you what Ernie does. No one knows.

813
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: The guys are in the facility every day. We have

814
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: Ernie Adams here in this table as a caricature that

815
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,839
Speaker 1: there's a secret entrance where you play the piano notes

816
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 1: and the bookcase opens and foxbur when you go down

817
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,319
Speaker 1: into the catacombs, and Ernie Adams is chained to a wall,

818
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 1: even with some hot soup and some stale bread, and

819
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 1: Belichick tells him hot soup. They refresh it. Fine things

820
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 1: in this game that will help us win that we

821
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 1: don't know about. He's like, I found some section three

822
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 1: article D. We can beat the Ravens and it works.

823
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 1: Ernie Adams the unsung hero, sort of the yellow king

824
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:01,759
Speaker 1: of the doing them Patriots amazing. I love that. The

825
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: way I look at the Patriots dynasty, it's a part one,

826
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 1: part two, So I love that you brought an element

827
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,359
Speaker 1: for part two, and Craft's been there through it all.

828
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 1: But you have the Tai Law, Willie McGinnis, Dion Branch

829
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: early era. Right, that's chapter one. There's three rings there.

830
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 1: Then you have the error that we're sort of living

831
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 1: in right now. And I really feel like people forget

832
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 1: that there was a lull in this Patriots dynasty. Right

833
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,759
Speaker 1: there was the sixteen and no season in two two

834
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 1: thousand and seven, and after that it was they didn't

835
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 1: make it to the AFC Championship like three times. Then

836
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 1: Gronk shows up and he has this breakout sophomore season.

837
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 1: So I think it is Gronk because he is the

838
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 1: biggest part literally and figuratively of this second half, the

839
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 1: second chapter, the revitalization of the Patriots dynasty. I feel like,

840
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: you know, listen, this is insane. The Paths have made

841
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: it to the AFC Championship game or further every year

842
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,879
Speaker 1: since that breakout season his sophomore year. That's eight straight years.

843
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 1: And there's no coincidence that Gronk is a huge part

844
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: of that. He's a four time All Pro, He's won

845
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 1: five AFC Championships, are super Bowls, one of the best

846
00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:03,320
Speaker 1: players to ever play at his position. This is a

847
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,919
Speaker 1: first ballot Hall of Famer that we are talking about.

848
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: Even not at one hundred in the Super Bowl, He's

849
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,840
Speaker 1: still They don't win the Super Bowl without that setup

850
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:14,720
Speaker 1: catch from Brady too prompt to set up Sony Michelle

851
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,800
Speaker 1: and the only touchdown in this Super Bowl. Also, what

852
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 1: I love is in the midst of do your job,

853
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 1: no days off, it's a tough time for media up there.

854
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 1: They cannot get anything out of the Patriots that he

855
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 1: has done it all. We're looking at Juju Smith Schuster

856
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 1: having the off season he had and then also having

857
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 1: a great season. It is very rare to pull it

858
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,800
Speaker 1: all together and do both, especially in New England. So

859
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 1: for him to sort of do it loosely, for him

860
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: to embrace other things, for him to like Hollywood and

861
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,800
Speaker 1: have it all makes him a well rounded player and

862
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,279
Speaker 1: makes him a unique player. I think he's a third guy.

863
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,839
Speaker 1: More year, one more year, we'll see if we can

864
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,400
Speaker 1: get he's still here. Well. Thanks for juny in to
