The early 27 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: shadow was Odell for MVP. They missed the extra points. 28 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: Who it's thirteen three? Look at this mix in te Higgins. 29 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: You know how coolness says Joe Mixon is never thrown 30 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: a pass in the NFL. That was his first one, 31 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: first ever pass right. It was the fifth non quarterback 32 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: to throw a touchdown. You know that sounds like a 33 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: segment this week. I'm good Morning Football.

When it gets dark, Odell 36 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,359 Speaker 1: goes down. You're gonna see in the replay he makes 37 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: the drop of the left knee just completely buckles. He 38 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: would go down and he would not return. All kinds 39 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 1: of emotion from him, from the Rams, from the Bengas, 40 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: for everybody watching this game, and morow down. A little 41 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: of the game goes on. Third quarter Burrows play booking 42 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,399 Speaker 1: first play of the half, Joy Burrow see Higgins gone, 43 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: first play after Drey and Sloop and Mary Jay was 44 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: this now watched the second one because Rams fans are 45 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: mad about this. Watch He's just gonna rip Jalen's face mask. 46 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: No call for face mask. They let him play yesterday 47 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: until they did it the first fifty nine minutes. So 48 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: that's the first play to half. This is the second 49 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: play of the half. Right after the touchdown. Stafford over 50 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: the middle intercepted all the momentum as with Cincinnati, all 51 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,399 Speaker 1: of it. Shoudobe a wuz with the pick, and Bro says, 52 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 1: let's go. That's's the Los Angeles, that's what they were doing. 53 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: They know you're right. All kinds of scares going on, 54 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: but let's get you an electric fourth quarter, third and nine, 55 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow looking gets absolutely crunched by Van and Burrow 56 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 1: is down and everyone's, oh no, we can't lose Joe. 57 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: We can't lose Joe, and his right knee does get 58 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: twisted out the knee braces on the other knee, and 59 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: so you thought maybe this would be cataclysmic as well. 60 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: But he would get up. He's tough as nails, shout 61 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: out to Ohio and would continue the game. But this 62 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 1: is when it gets crazy. Got a third and goal, 63 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: all right, they're gonna call the penalty. We got the 64 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: holding and nobody liked it. It wasn't holding on Logan Wilson, 65 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: which means first and goal on the for Zach Taylor. 66 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: Can't believe it. Next play, you're going to Cooper cup 67 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: back in the end zone. Boom, big hits. You thought 68 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: the ref says touchdown. Then he's gonna flag the hits 69 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: and then we're gonna have offsetting penalties are holding on 70 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: the Rams and a personal file in the Bengals after 71 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: a failed quarterback sneak. Then he just goes to cripless. 72 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this myself. Touchdown, no penalty, although there 73 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: was another one. We'll get into a Bengals fans, we 74 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: hear you. Cooper gets up. That's the go ahead score. 75 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: They make the extra point twenty three to twenty. So 76 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: here's the Joe Burrow drive. First play off the drive 77 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: chase we have not subs Bay yet. Look out, get 78 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: him down. He goes out. So we're in business. What 79 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: we're saying about Chase during the game. So a third 80 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 1: and one, they give it to Samaji Pierron who stopped 81 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 1: half a yard short, fourth and less than the yard. 82 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: They're in the shotgun and they passed. They got to 83 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,239 Speaker 1: move the chains and Donald a deest question passing it's over. 84 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: It's over the Rams win. Donald said after the game. 85 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: I thought Burrow was going to complete that pass. I 86 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: had to look up to make sure he didn't, and 87 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: he almost did. But Aaron Donald is right, he is 88 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: getting a ring. Odell all in tears. McVay fulfills his 89 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: destiny with the Lombardi the Rams. The Los Angeles Rams 90 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl on their home field. Cooper Cup. 91 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup, a wide receiver, the MVP twenty three to 92 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: twenty as your final score. Let's go to Super Bowl 93 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: MVP Cooper Cup. I had one year old, Cypress Cup, 94 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: and my wife's been with me since senior year in 95 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: high school. She's been through all of it. She's seen 96 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: it all. She knows the sacrifices because she's lived the 97 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: sacrifices herself. As well. I was validated, not from anything 98 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: that happened on the field, but because of my worth 99 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: and God and my father. And I'm just so incredibly thankful. 100 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: I just in that moment you're talking about, I was 101 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,679 Speaker 1: just so undeserving of what that was and that moment 102 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: because it was I mean, the people that I've been 103 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: able to play with, the people that I've been around, 104 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: the players that I get to play with, to come 105 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: into work with every single day, the coaches that I 106 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: get to work with, to collaborate with. It's just been 107 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: just the perfect team, the perfect setup. They're so thankful 108 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: for everyone that's been around me. It was I mean, really, 109 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's it still really hasn't hit me. 110 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: The couple could not be stopped at the end of 111 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: that game. Peter, what stood up to you and the 112 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: Ram's win over the Bengals, Babe? You called this is 113 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: your super Bowl winner back in August. Yeah, I don't 114 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: know if I had Cooper Cup being the most unstoppable 115 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 1: player in the NFL though, I go to that final drive. 116 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: You know, Cooper Cup only had one catch in the 117 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: second half before that final drive and basically after o'doll 118 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 1: one down, they had no answers, and Sean McVay said, 119 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: we need to just go to Cooper Cup and Matthew 120 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: Stafford and him have this incredible connection all season long, 121 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: and when they needed it most, it were those two guys. 122 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: It was Stafford to Cup, Stafford to Cup. And then 123 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: as we get closer and closer, the Bengals start realizing 124 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 1: it's only going to Cooper Cup, and yet they could 125 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: not stop him. That's the story of the season. Every 126 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: team knew that this was their guy when the moments 127 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: were the biggest, when it mattered most, and yet they 128 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: could not stop him. This was his twenty twenty one 129 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: playoffs guys. Thirty three catches in four games, four hundred 130 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 1: and seventy eight yards and six touchdowns is the postseason 131 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: record for most catches season. That is something that season's 132 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: my gritlin and I said all week long. I'm like, 133 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: if he goes not to the Super Bowl, he might 134 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: have the greatest Playoffs ever. It's comparable. It's comparable. Larry's 135 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: got him on yards and touchdowns, but you know what, 136 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: Cup's got him on the ring. The ring he has 137 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: the ring and the MVP. Peter Fitz was pretty good. 138 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: It was. Cooper Cup was awesome, Matthew Stafford was awesome. 139 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: That there's nothing you can do for fifty five minutes 140 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: better than what the Bengals did. And then Cooper Cup 141 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: and Matthew Stafford were like, let's just get this thing done. 142 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: Saw them talking afterwards. These guys are like brothers, and 143 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: I know people roll their eyes and say, yes, we 144 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: get it. They get to the facility earlier. Cooper Cup 145 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: has his own film office, that's Cooper's. He gets there 146 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: at four rounds every morning, a wide receiver and studies film. 147 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: For it all to pay off and be the MVP, 148 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: a third round pick, sixty ninth pick out of Eastern Washington, 149 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: and for them to win on the back of Stafford 150 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: and Cup. That's what it was all season. Matthew Stafford 151 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: now has gone and has has beaten his first playoff 152 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: Undish was big, has beaten. Tom Brady has gone after 153 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: being down ten to Sanrcisco, and now yesterday came back 154 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: and found Cup despite the two interceptions, Despite two interceptions, 155 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: it's a story.

Obviously, 166 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: he threw a pass, he had a clutch run, he 167 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: blocked his butt off like he does every single time. 168 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: And you watching the game, you felt this wave of 169 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: need when Odell went out, Like the whole Rams offense 170 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: kind of shut down for like two quarters and you 171 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: were wondering, like McVay, let's go. Is it gonna happen again? 172 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: They're sitting on sixteen points in the fourth quarter and 173 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: you're like, oh my god, I know we're gonna talk 174 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,199 Speaker 1: about tomorrow morning. The Rams offense again in the Super 175 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 1: Bowl just couldn't get it going. And then they did 176 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: and they found a way and they was all Cooper Cup, 177 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 1: and I just cannot believe Cooper Cup. Cooper Cup, Cooper Cup, 178 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: we're talking about the Monday after the Super Bowl was 179 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 1: the best player in the building, and that included Aaron Donald. 180 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: They were incredible. And one of the major storylines during 181 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: the Big Game last night at so far was Odell 182 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: beckhum juniors knee injury at sidelined him for the rest 183 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 1: of the game after he made a huge impact. And 184 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: we know we waited a long time to get to 185 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: this moment, being in a super Bowl, becoming a Super 186 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: Bowl champion. So how do we feel about OBJ? How 187 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: did you think he was feeling after getting herput He's 188 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: still want a Super Bowl ring. The balance of that 189 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: KB very tough, such an emotional player always so as 190 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: the whole spectrum last night. But I do want to 191 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: say something about Odell as it pertains to us being here. 192 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: We're in this beautiful new NFL facility. We're so thrilled 193 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: to be here. It's been so great welcoming us. But 194 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 1: there's been something that's been bothering me all week when 195 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: we come into work. When you walk in, there's this 196 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: long hallway of this mural of only Legends on the wall. 197 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: Let me let me show I took video of it 198 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: this morning. Every day you walk into work like this 199 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: and there's Jim Brown, Vince Lombardi. You keep going down 200 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: the hallway, Tom Brady, he's got a seven Super Bowl 201 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: rings as all these legends is Tom Brady and Eric 202 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: Dickerson legend Odell Beckham Junior. Of course that Joe name 203 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: what Odell Beckham Junior on the Rams has been between 204 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: Nameth and Brown and Dickerson and what It just seems 205 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: like a strange allocation of real estates. I get the 206 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: Rams are the home deal and they're right over there, 207 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: but like Lombardi and Jim running O'Dell, it feels a 208 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: lot better today than it did twenty four hours ago. 209 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: I feel great walking into work this morning. Odell Beckham 210 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: Junior brought us Super Bowl to LA. They don't get 211 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: in that game without Odell. They don't win that game 212 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: without it. He is a champion now. His whole reputation 213 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: has changed, his whole legacy has changed. I think they 214 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: should have made that picture bigger on the hallway micro 215 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: make them make the Jim Brown one smaller. I'm fine, 216 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,959 Speaker 1: It's really really cool what happened to him and no 217 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: one saw it coming a year ago, super excited for Odell. 218 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: Look what he went through this year. I mean he 219 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: was with the Browns. He had another quarterback throwing him 220 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: the football and to find a way to get him 221 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: the ball. And this guy just went off when he 222 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 1: finally got into an offense and got into a scheme 223 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 1: and got with a quarterback who wanted to get him 224 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: to football. I honestly think that injury, though, it's gonna 225 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,079 Speaker 1: make Odell even more hungry to come back next year. 226 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: And I think it's a blessing in disguise for the 227 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams, the team in the front office, because 228 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: I think Odell might take less to come back. I 229 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: think he may do whatever he wants to do to 230 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: stay in Hollywood, just because he may not felt he 231 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: was that big out of the wing, even though I 232 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 1: think he was one of the most exciting guys on 233 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:04,719 Speaker 1: the field. Yeah, I think it may have been a 234 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: blessing in disguise to get Odell a little bit. It's 235 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: a cool story. It's a guy that everyone had negative 236 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: things to say about, and then last night was amazing 237 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: when they needed him most, and that touchdown catch was awesome, 238 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 1: and then the third and eleven was huge. She played 239 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: really well last night, goes down with the injury and 240 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: then after the game had a chance. I saw him 241 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: on the field afterwards. We was talking to him. His 242 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: partner's expecting like his life is at a different points, 243 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: like very soon, and she was happy as mom was 244 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 1: out there with him. Happy. He talked to his agents 245 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: Zeke Sendu. He was happy and like all the contract 246 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: stuff'll figure itself out. That due the Super Bowl champion, 247 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: there's a lot of wide receivers who are not career 248 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 1: defining impact on this game. More after this, I'm good 249 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 1: Morning Football. What a tree for us. We always get 250 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: to hang out with ape Urlson on Mondays, but he 251 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 1: is here in the flesh and it feels very good. 252 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 1: Previous Morning Skin clost contributor to the NFL. Today you 253 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: can talk to Andrew it Worth. I did. I talked 254 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: to him about an hour ago. He was chilling big. 255 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: Seems like he was trying to get some rest, but 256 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: he said he didn't go to sleep. He hung out 257 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 1: at a special party with Matthew Stafford, Cooper Cup and family. 258 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: But you know I have to press him. I said, look, 259 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: you got the salt and pepper in your beard. Don't 260 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: look your age. You're still out there balling, retiring or not. 261 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: And he said, I gotta think about give me some time, Nate. 262 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: So I think the big fellow's coming back. Yeah, Nate's 263 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: bringing the like I got the school. I don't know, 264 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: crazy game.

Yeah? Is it a rap with 270 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 1: all of that? Ye? Yeah. Matt Stafford isn't the man. 271 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: He's a compiler. He was in Detroit. I don't know 272 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: if he can do it on a big level. They 273 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 1: brought him here to win a super Bowl, and he 274 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: won the damn Super Bowl and he did it in 275 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 1: grand fashion. Oh and also Cooper Cup. I mean, come on, man, 276 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: We've been talking about it all year. I've been barking 277 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: from the rooftops. He's the best receiver of the game, 278 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: and I don't know how on a weekly basis you 279 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: can question that. And he kept it off being the 280 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:21,319 Speaker 1: best offensive player in a Super Bowl MVP Nay Stafford, 281 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: Eminem last night, let just shout out to Detroit for 282 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: a second, everybody from the three one three. Now, I'm joking, listen, 283 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: this might be the most Detroit super Bowl you're gonna 284 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 1: get for quite some time. Until the Lions figured things out. 285 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: You got Stafford that quarterback, and Eminem at halftime, and 286 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: shout out to Eminem for doing this. Stay you know 287 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: what I'm saying for standing for something. But here's the thing, though, 288 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: when it comes to Detroit, Matt Stafford said he appreciates 289 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: the love that Detroit gave him, not just during this 290 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 1: Super Bowl run, but all season. They could have easily 291 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: been like, you know what, staff you're leaving us just 292 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 1: like everybody else. You couldn't write it out, you couldn't 293 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: retire a line. We stood by you, we paid you. 294 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: They were like, nah, he's still our guy. And he 295 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: loves the fact that they showed him so much love. 296 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,839 Speaker 1: This year, on the way out of Detroit, Stafford and 297 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: his wife donated five hundred thousand dollars to inner city 298 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: schools in Detroit. Just sounds like a parting gift and 299 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 1: said like, hey, put that to those programs and that 300 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: that was among all of the other You said, Cooper Cup, 301 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: you're our brother on the show, You're our wide receiver 302 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: expert on the show. What makes him so special? And 303 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: when everyone in the building knew that it was going 304 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: to him, how come they couldn't stop him? I believe 305 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: a quarterback and a coach that's the best type of 306 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 1: marriage for a football team. You have to be on 307 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: the same page. It has to be symmetry. But when 308 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: you have a coach like Sean McVay in a receiver, 309 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: that's the second best relationship a good team can have. 310 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: Not only is a great route runner, every single route 311 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: looks the same. When he gets off the line of scrimmage, 312 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: he can high point the ball and catch anything you 313 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: throw to him. But what I mean as far as 314 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: the marriage with Sean mcvayh he helps them before the 315 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: play even starts. Condenses, alignments, prestap movement, all of these 316 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: little things that helped Cooper Cup recognize the def It's 317 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: early in the game. He's going in motion. The guy 318 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: doesn't go with him. We know that zone. If there's 319 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: a guy running with me, that's man I'm in now. 320 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 1: I know off the line of scrimmage. You can't jam me. 321 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: I'm in motion. So there's all of these little things 322 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: that he does well that makes him the best receiver 323 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: in the game. I have to shut out Van Jefferson, 324 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: Sean Jefferson's son. Yeah, he's my guy. Third, congratulations on 325 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: the baby to the Lombardi in the baby Man, it's amazing. Um. 326 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: But then Obj, you know, I know, I know it's 327 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: unfortunate to go out with the injury. But if you're 328 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: gonna go out, go out. My man was balling, got 329 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: a touchdown early in the game. He looked like he 330 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: was about to go get the MVP. UM and tears 331 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: of joy for OBJ. Think about what he's been through. 332 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: He was an absolute rock star in New York, right, 333 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: couldn't do anything wrong, and then they booted him out 334 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: of there. And then he got to the Browns, and 335 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: I gotta shut out Michael Lever. He said it was 336 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: purgatory with the Cleveland Browns. He's just saying it was. 337 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: It wasn't. It wasn't good times in Cleveland. And then 338 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: he landed here in LA and proved that he still 339 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: has a lot of juices. Seven touchdowns since he joined 340 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: the Rams, that's as many as he had his whole 341 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: time with the Browns, and Mike's freaking out about it, 342 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: and I think rightfully. So the Michael Jackson celebration from 343 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: that was unbelievable. Dude, with cleats, I come up, come on, 344 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: I say, do that thing the most preference thing of 345 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: the game. I think it was the best thing in 346 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: the game is in general, even if you had church 347 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: shoes on them, you shouldn't beat it with baby oil 348 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: on the ground. He had cleats on and was moving. 349 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: He did. Man, that's the craziest thing I've ever So 350 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: you shouldn't got Gay Jones like levitating ground. That was 351 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: really good. Quickly, Joe Burrow and the Bengals obviously the incredible, 352 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: incredible night. Cincinnati's waking up this morning, are still out, 353 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: like what what do you say to those people on 354 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: that team? One? This wasn't one of those years where 355 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: it's like good for the Bengals. Yeah, they were a 356 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: dominant eye. They were and they deserve respect, So you 357 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: better put some respect on their name. Going to the 358 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 1: off season. At the average age of the squad twenty 359 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: six years old. They're young, so they're going to be 360 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: back this isn't one of those things where I think 361 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: they're going to be back. They will be back next season. 362 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: I guarantee it'll be in the playoffs. They'll be can tenders. 363 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: For his Super Bowl Jamar Chase, this was his rookie year. 364 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 1: He was He's gonna do that trip. One of the 365 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 1: best players on the field out Nate. We got to 366 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: talk about halftime, bro. Yeah, all we were talking about 367 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 1: the performances on the field. Man halftime Man Man, Doctor 368 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: Dre Ball fifty out that That was it for me. 369 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: Dog tell us about the Super Bowl. Fifty drop dropped 370 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: down in the tank Vampire use. So I don't know 371 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: if we had the right to that, So I can't 372 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: say that, but no, I just respect it. Man. They 373 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: kind of visualized comped in with those houses. Dray came 374 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: out there.

You know, 375 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 1: I'm a big hip hop head so and being a 376 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: West Coast kid growing up in Seattle and love everything 377 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: about Dre and Snoop and of course Kendrick Eminem and 378 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: Mary J. Blige dinner thing. I thought it was awesome 379 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: for the NFL to really, you know, give a tip 380 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: of their hat to some hip hop artists that are 381 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: only iconic in the culture. But you know, Mike Rody 382 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: know this sitting those locker rooms. If you flip everybody's 383 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: head phoning outside in we're listening to those guys. So 384 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: I'm glad we got to see him as it was awesome. 385 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: Kay asked this question to us earlier. I want to 386 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: ask you who is the coolest non football player celebrity 387 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: you got to meet at the Super Bowl yesterday. Oh 388 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: that's a good question. I did run into Russell and Sierra, 389 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna say, like, Russell is cool, but not 390 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: as cool as his wife.

Next to somebody said there's 395 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: no way that Kanye paid fifty thousand dollars for them 396 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: seats and was watching the game like this through a 397 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: mesh mesh mask. But no, I ran into a few people, man, 398 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 1: but I was hanging out with the wife. Shout out 399 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: to my wife forty It was a great week. Now 400 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: you're going home New York, going home you know, we 401 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 1: got work. I gotta do NFL salon time tomorrow, CBS morners. 402 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 1: It don't stop, Okay, I don't know how you're doing. 403 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: How young Dylan? I say, Hi, Euene. All right, it's 404 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 1: Super Bowl Monday. Let's get back to Super Bowl Sunday, 405 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 1: twenty three to twenty. Rams beat the Bengals, But there 406 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 1: is a loser in this one. It's not all Rams. 407 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 1: The Bengals fought valiantly in our very own Aditi kin 408 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: Kawala had a chance to speak with Bengals head coach 409 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 1: Zach Taylor after the crushing defeat. Zack, for a while there, 410 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 1: it really did feel like you had momentum, and you 411 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: especially started the second half, so well, when did things 412 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 1: change or what turned? You know? I really thought we 413 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: were in a great position, you know, and then they 414 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 1: had the long drive and shoot some clock there and scored, 415 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: and we didn't get it done there on our last drive. 416 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 1: So really we were just one stop or one score away. 417 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: We're probably putting ourselves in position to win the game. 418 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: But I thought our guys give tremendous suffer man, and 419 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 1: then they made a lot of different plays that put 420 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: us in a position to win this Bowl. So even 421 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 1: for all of the devastation of the moment, I know 422 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 1: you told your team last night that it's a special group. 423 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: Is there anything to say for the fact of simply 424 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: being here, especially after the last two years? Is there 425 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,199 Speaker 1: any joy in that ord? We got to find a 426 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: way to find that though, you know, because it was special, 427 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 1: you didn't get a chance to really appreciate a lot 428 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: of them moments that we had because you were so 429 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: quickly moving on to the next big game. And I 430 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: think there will be a time to reflect back and 431 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: appreciate what we've done. But right now we're just we're 432 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: surely hurt that we're not Super Bowl champions. I appreciate it, 433 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: thank you, And there is an objective awareness that even 434 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 1: if they bring all their guys back, even if they 435 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 1: add offensive lineman, there's no guarantee that they will be 436 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: back there ever again. So coach Taylor obviously upset a 437 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: ddity King Krala thank you for catching him bringing him 438 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: to us here. On Good Morning Football this morning, we 439 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 1: also had Joe Burrow reaching out to fans. He never 440 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 1: uses social media, but he hopped on Twitter last night 441 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: to stay sorry we couldn't get it done. Proud of 442 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: our team and our fans love these guys. So gentlemen 443 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 1: here at the Good Morning Football breakfast table, Kabie, what 444 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: do you take from this Bengals loss to super in 445 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifties. Great effort, great game, great team, great season, awesome, awesome, awesome. 446 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: But I'm walking out of the stadium last night and 447 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: wait us at the end of the game, and I'm 448 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: walking out with hordes of people like cattle. You're just 449 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: shoulder to shoulder with all these people, and you know, 450 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of good football fans, which 451 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: is so awesome, and a lot of them say, hey, hey, hey, 452 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:04,239 Speaker 1: what do you think of the game? How a great game? 453 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,159 Speaker 1: I would say. And there was a lot of chatter 454 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: amongst the Bengals fans about the officiating at the end 455 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: of the game, which I totally understand because it was 456 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 1: so fresh and so raw. So let's check that box. 457 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: Let's get into this. There were four penalties called in 458 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: the first fifty eight minutes, and then there was four 459 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: in the last two minutes. So let's just look at this. 460 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: The Rams are coming for the go ahead score down 461 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: here across the middle. You watch this play and at 462 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 1: first it's this holding one and this is the one 463 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: that's really bothering people because especially if you're doing the 464 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: let them play thing, this was not a good call. 465 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: And this felt like the human element where at the 466 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: end of the game you're getting tense and you know 467 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: things are on the line, and then there's this one 468 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 1: they call the hits, which you know, I guess those 469 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: are always kind of weird. Then there was a holding 470 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: penalty as well, offsetting. So then they go again and 471 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 1: as you Bengals fans are going, what is going on? 472 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: This thing's being taken from us. Stop and you're getting mad. 473 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 1: You can feel it in the stadium. That one was okay, 474 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: that was a past interference, so I thought was warranted, 475 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: But there was this feeling of that, you know this 476 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: how you think is a fan they want the Rams 477 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 1: to score. They're helping the Ram score, They're doing everything 478 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: they can to help the Rams score. Like I totally 479 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: get that. I get feeling that way last night, I 480 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: get feeling that way this morning. But I would just 481 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 1: I say this every time, no matter who the fan 482 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 1: base is, don't let that be your takeaway weeks and 483 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: months and years from now. Just don't do it, it's 484 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: gonna eat you apart. And I always it's the lament 485 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: of the loser that the officials screwed us, because always 486 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:16,719 Speaker 1: in the Rams fans come back and say, but what 487 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: about that one early on Jalen Ramsy got his face 488 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 1: mask ripped, And I would also say, they got the score, 489 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 1: and then you had your guy Burrow and he had timeouts, 490 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: and he had time and there was plenty of time 491 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: to go right down the field, even got a field 492 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: goal for McPherson would have tied it. I think there'll 493 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: be some of that. I hope that's not the legacy 494 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 1: of this game for the Bengals fans, because it should 495 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: be how tough they were, how good they were. But 496 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: I understand this morning, in a cooling period, be mad, 497 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 1: but find a way to let it go, because I 498 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: really don't think that's the reason you lost the game. 499 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: The Bengals fans were amazing. They were and they were everywhere. 500 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,120 Speaker 1: If you weren't at the game and you were watching 501 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 1: on TV, and you can always see the celebrity, every 502 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: other fan in that building was a Bengals fan, and 503 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: it was awesome. They're a great fan base and they 504 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: were so amped, and they all had the same joke. 505 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 1: I said, whey from verybody, I've been waiting third, I've 506 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 1: been saving thirty three years through this very trip. I 507 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 1: wasn't missing it, like I've been saving the money. And 508 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: I would say, if you're waking up this morning and 509 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: you're a Bengals fan, the future is so bright. Burrow 510 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: is amazing. He was so good yesterday. Joe Mixon is 511 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,959 Speaker 1: really really good. And then I think I'm gonna talk 512 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: about him all offseason and you're gonna be annoyed by it. Guys, 513 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: I am like the biggest Jamar Chase fanboy uber talent. 514 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: Like I'm raving about Cooper Cup. Jamar Chase is already 515 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 1: like in the conversation, he's just starting to learn how 516 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: to play wide receiver. And he had fourteen hundred yards 517 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: and was unstoppable in the playoffs. So I wake up 518 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: this morning, I'm like, gosh, I would be really really 519 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: happy to be Aba. It's not easy to get back, 520 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: but you at least know the pieces are there, and 521 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: borrowing some catastrophic injuries or some knock on wood or 522 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,199 Speaker 1: some crazy setbacks, you gotta think the Bengals are going 523 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 1: to be a play something quickly about Chase. Last night 524 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: I met Jimmy Chase, who's Jamar Chase's father, at the stadium. Unbelievable, 525 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 1: big fan of this show. Thank you for all you do. 526 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 1: Loves Kay loves the show. Great guy, really really really 527 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: cool guy, and I'm sure he has a lot to 528 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: be proud of. Jimmy Chase. Will you talked about Jamar 529 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 1: Chase not than anyone leading up to the week. You 530 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 1: were saying that if he can be raised and you 531 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: were really curious about that. Jalen Ramsey connections gonna be 532 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: what did you make a Chase massive play, great effort. 533 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 1: I think they needed just a little bit more. I 534 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: think they need to get him in a ball a 535 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 1: little bit more. I think I didn't think that the 536 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 1: Bengals could win unless Chase had a monster game. I 537 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: think he was really good and no no, no shade 538 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 1: to him, but I think they could have used more. 539 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:21,879 Speaker 1: I would have I would have threw some wide receiver 540 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: screens to him. I would have handled them the football. 541 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: I would have did whatever I had to do to 542 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: get the ball in his like the Rams to the cup, 543 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: like the Rams did the cup. That's your best player, 544 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,679 Speaker 1: get him the football. Um. Let's be honest, guys, the 545 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: Bengals were probably a year two early. Let's just be 546 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you just look at how they got here, 547 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:41,880 Speaker 1: that schedule. Look at they're just a little bit ahead 548 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: of schedule. And it reminds me of my twenty twelve 549 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks Russell Wilson's rookie year. We went out to Atlanta, 550 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: we lost in the divisional round. It was all like, oh, 551 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: we were averaging forty something points. We felt really good 552 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: about ourselves. But it was just something in our game 553 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: that made you think, man, it's gonna come down to 554 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: the end, and we just don't have that, I don't know, 555 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: institutional knowledge experience to really get through those situations. And 556 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: when I was looking at the end of that game, 557 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: it reminded me of that game. I started getting flashbacks 558 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: of Tony Gonzalez catching carry, Douglas, Douglas, all of those 559 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 1: I was getting flashbacks because Kyle, to your point, those 560 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: last two minutes of the game, as the as the 561 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: penalties were mounting up, and you just had to keep 562 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: pressing reset like the old Nintendo right, keep pressing reset, 563 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: Keip pressing reset. You almost could feel the Bengals team 564 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: and fans go oh no, oh, no oh, here we go, 565 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 1: yeah we can go yeah, and and almost looking for 566 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: an excuse as to why you lose, you know what 567 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 1: I mean, That's why I think they were a year 568 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: two early. Um. I agree with the sentiment that they're 569 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: that they're young, and they have all the pieces to 570 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: get back. But let's just be honest. You can bring 571 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 1: everybody back like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and it's still 572 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: a different team. It's still a different year. You can't 573 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: guarantee guys are gonna be healthy. You can't be guaranteed 574 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: that you know, Joey's gonna You can't guarantee any of that. 575 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 1: So I like the sentiment that I'm hearing from the 576 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals. But they gotta put some work in man, 577 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: because uh, they got to put no doubt out there 578 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: that they're supposed to be in this game. The next 579 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: time steps back, the finger should her away. He got there, 580 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: he singles to his three finger on his hand. The 581 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: sidelines empty. So my seedless ram are tripping all smiles 582 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 1: from Sean McVay. Let's welcome in Bridget Condon. She's in 583 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,719 Speaker 1: Los Angeles with the ram side of things. Bridget Van 584 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: Jefferson is a super Bowl champion. He became one last night. 585 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: But there's also even bigger news for him and his family. 586 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,919 Speaker 1: Let's call on okay. There are so many great storylines, 587 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 1: Van Jefferson being one of them. About this Super Bowl. 588 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: Sean McVeagh, we can talk about him becoming the youngest 589 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: head coach to ever win a Super Bowl. Aaron Donald, 590 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 1: we talked about him earlier, been named to multiple Pro Bowls, 591 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: been named multiple Defensive Player of the Year awards, never 592 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: had won a Super Bowl until last night. Check that 593 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 1: off his bucket list. Andrew Whitworth wins his first Super 594 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 1: Bowl at forty years old against the same team that 595 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: drafted him so many years ago. But none of those 596 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: celebrations quite compare to the celebration that Jeffersons had last 597 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: night are still having early this morning. Van Jefferson said 598 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 1: earlier this week he's got two things going on. His 599 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 1: wife Samaria, forty weeks pregnant, about to have their baby 600 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 1: any moment, and he's playing for a super Bowl. He 601 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 1: said he hopes the baby would wait until after the 602 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: Super Bowl to come, but the baby had other plans. 603 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,679 Speaker 1: It was Actually during the game, right after halftime, I 604 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: was up on the concourse and this woman came by 605 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 1: on a stretcher who looked really familiar, looked just like 606 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: Van Jefferson's wife, and I thought to myself, I think 607 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: that that's his wife heading to the hospital to have 608 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 1: their baby. Sure enough, it was. She went into labor 609 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: during the game. She had strict instructions though. She told 610 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 1: The Athletic last week that if she were to go 611 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: into labor during the Super Bowl, she did not want 612 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: the Rams to tell her husband. She said, let him 613 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: keep playing and then rushed to meet me at the 614 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,439 Speaker 1: hospital after. So after the game he found out his 615 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 1: wife was in labor, He grabbed his daughter and his 616 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: dad sprinted through the locker room and to the hospital. 617 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: Late last night, he posted a picture on Instagram of 618 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 1: him holding his baby boy. Such an incredible night for 619 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: those two. They both were high school sweethearts, they met 620 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: in high school, They have so much history together and 621 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: this is a night that they will never forget. No 622 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 1: update yet on the baby's name, but you have to 623 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: wonder if there's some connection to the Rams team here, 624 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: maybe Matthew or Sean or Aaron, But so exciting for 625 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: those guys, not the Jeffersons who not only are taking 626 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: home a Lombardi, but a baby as well. Thank you 627 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: so much, Bridget appreciate you and all your hard work 628 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: throughout the week here leading up to that Super Bowl 629 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: win for the Rams, and yes, Van relentless. All gave 630 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: long and when it comes time to closing things out though, guys, 631 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: it was all about Aaron Donald.

I just feel 652 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: lucky that we get to watch it on these big stages. 653 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: And sometimes they do feel like a little don't feel 654 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: like we're take him for grant and for how great 655 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: he's been, and now he's talking about potentially his future. 656 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: You're no, no, and now he's a chump? Would you 657 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: make off it? I love that we got to hear 658 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: from him. This is more than I've heard him say. 659 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: Not a talker, not a talker at all. Um, you're 660 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 1: so good. Like I'm watching the game from the stands, 661 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 1: And how often is it that an interior defensive lineman 662 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: is the most disruptive player in the game, And yesterday 663 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: was the most disruptive player. This where like you're watching 664 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 1: it in real time, and ninety nine stands out because 665 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: he just constantly is going. And they asked von Miller 666 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: afterwards and he's like what is Aaron Donald's He never stops. 667 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: So the same motor that you see here is on 668 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: first down, second out, third down, it's on the seventieth play, 669 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: it's on the fifteenth play, it's in May, it's in August, 670 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: it's in June. He never stops. He has the same 671 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 1: same ball of energy. Now I sit on the NFL 672 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: Game Day show yesterday, I think he might be the 673 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: greatest offensive player ever ever, And like I think he's 674 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: a very all due respect to Warren Sapp and John 675 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: Randall and me and Joe Green, I think he's the 676 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: greatest defensive tackle of all time. I think last night 677 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: solidified that. But he's up there with LT He's up 678 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 1: there with Reggie White. Yeah, I've never seen anyone disrupt 679 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 1: football the way he does on a down to down basis. 680 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: And now he's a three time Defensive Player of the Year, 681 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: he's a super Bowl champion, and he had one of 682 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: his best nights in the in the biggest game of 683 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: his career. So he's not even thirty. They're talking he 684 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 1: might be hanging it up. I say they. I mean 685 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: it's internally, you know, if you're gonna make your all 686 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: time team and it's Ronnie Lottage, it's lt at the 687 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: defensive tackle pushing all time. I think he might be 688 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 1: the first defensive player I take number one above Lawrence Taylor. 689 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: I agree with you. Second, I would second that, and 690 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: even you talk about Lawrence Tailer, no disrespect of love 691 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: Lawrence Taylor. And he did benefit from a scheme that 692 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 1: the league had not seen before that bare defense, and 693 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: he was on running backs a lot. And again again 694 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,719 Speaker 1: no disrespect to Lawrence Tailor. But Aaron Donald, man, to me, 695 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: was the timing or some of these plays. The fact 696 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: that when the game is on the line again, the center, 697 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: the guard to tackle, everybody slides to him and he 698 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: still makes the play. And a big difference that I've 699 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: seen an Aaron Donald this year, especially with the arrival 700 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: of Von Miller. I've been talking about it a lot 701 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: since Von Miller got to this team. Aaron Donald has 702 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: a big homie. He had a guy that you know 703 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 1: he can lean on from an emotional stay talk about it, Kay. 704 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: You said, just coming to this piece that I've never 705 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: seen Aaron Donald talk so much. I mean we've seen 706 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: him yelling on the sideline getting people fired up. To me, 707 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: that's the Von Miller effect. That's the big homie effect. 708 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: He didn't win a Super Bowl. Tell von Miller got 709 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: on this team, And to me, it just shows that 710 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: all of us, no matter how great you are, playing 711 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: this game, you need somebody that you can lean on 712 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: that has some of those experiences that can teach you 713 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: how to be an assassin like von Miller is. I 714 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: think von Miller was one of those guys who made 715 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: plays at certain times in this game as well. So 716 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, when you talk about 717 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, I'm gonna second Peter. Yes, he'd be my 718 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: first pick overall. Forget a quarterback, forget a runner, forget 719 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 1: a wide receiver. I'm going with Aaron Donald because he's 720 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: the closest to the football and that's the guy you 721 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: have to stop on every single play because he's right 722 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: there where the quarterback is. You gotta make sure he's blocked. 723 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 1: Give me a Donald any day of a week, all day. Wow. 724 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: That's the broad view of it about this game. Specifically, 725 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: if you are the baddest man on the planet and 726 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: you're the best defensive player of all time, you better 727 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: not have a three point lead in the Super Bowl. 728 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 1: Take the field with your defense and let this second 729 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 1: year pretty boy quarterback go down the field and rip 730 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: your You better not and he didn't. And I say this, 731 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: you know, in a basketball town, and we're in the 732 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 1: shadow of the Great Western Forum, that's like right over there. 733 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: The last play felt like a like a buzzer beater shot. 734 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 1: It felt like magic or ac or even later, it 735 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: felt like Robert Ory, like we need one play and 736 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: we're gonna get it to our best player and he's 737 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: just gonna drill this thing and then gooseneckt and go 738 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: to the party. And that's exactly what he did. That 739 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: was a splash as when they say Aaron Donald called 740 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 1: game on this, and he did it as a defensive tackle, 741 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 1: not a quarterback or a kicker. He said, not today, 742 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: not in my house, the Bengals, You're amazing. Not today, 743 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: And that's what the greats do. It's amazing moment too. 744 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: Before that, the Odell injury happened, and until the final drive, 745 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: the Ram's offense was pretty stacked. Yeah, it was a 746 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 1: brilliant defensive performance. And when you have a guy like 747 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,360 Speaker 1: this guy smiling this ninety nine and Von Miller and 748 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: you have them applying pressure disrupting and doing what they 749 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,720 Speaker 1: were doing to Burrow all game long. That buys Cooper, 750 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: Cup and McVeigh and Stafford time to regroup and do 751 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,399 Speaker 1: what they did on the final drive the lock. Yeah. 752 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't even know how you prepare for 753 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 1: any Donald. I mean you can slide the line to him, 754 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: you can put tight ends on him, you can put 755 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,799 Speaker 1: backs to a side. How do you prepare for him? 756 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: Because at the end of the day, he does something 757 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,359 Speaker 1: that all great players do. He physically beat you up. 758 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: I know where the ball's going, I know where I'm 759 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: supposed to block, and I can't do anything about it. 760 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 1: And Donald was asked last night about what he was 761 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 1: thinking on that last play. You talk about calling the shot, 762 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 1: and I love the answer. It's a perfect football answer. 763 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 1: He said, I was just thinking about straining as hard 764 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: as I possibly can. One more play gets me a championship, 765 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:57,799 Speaker 1: And he came up with the play he called his 766 00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 1: own shot. To your point, I would love to give 767 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 1: one more shout out. Rahy Morris is a defensive coordinator 768 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,840 Speaker 1: of the Los Angeles Rams. He got one interview in 769 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 1: the Opportunities here one interview opportunity. Last night, they Bengals 770 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 1: went three for fourteen on third down, they went one 771 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: for three on fourth down, and the defense really dictated 772 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: everything down the stretch there. Rahy Morris not being a 773 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: head coach in the NFL right now, I think is absurd. 774 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 1: The fact only got one interview is absurd. And I 775 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:22,839 Speaker 1: just want to give him a shout out because he's 776 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: one of the great coaches in the NFL and put 777 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: on a master feasness of a bit. Let's get down 778 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,760 Speaker 1: to business, though and talk about the star studded show 779 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: that we all got to experience at halftime, just to thrill. 780 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: We are so lucky that we got to see this 781 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: in person in the flesh across the street at so far. 782 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 1: Thoughts on this legendary epic performance KB La Da da 783 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 1: da dah. So fun and whn't you say we have 784 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,439 Speaker 1: an obligation to talk about what the people are talking about. 785 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: What's up? There's a video out there now if you 786 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: guys have seen it. I just saw it, and it's 787 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 1: someone filming a monitor in a control room somewhere and 788 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: it's snow right before he goes on and he's like 789 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 1: getting ready and it's hilarious and perfect. Yeah, I know, 790 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 1: and it's like, I'd be disappointed if it wasn't him 791 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: and Dre coming up and going right into the song unbelievable. 792 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,280 Speaker 1: And I have to tell you, I had heard before 793 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: we're always like who's the special guest? Who special guests? 794 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 1: I had heard that fifty cent might show up, and 795 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 1: my thought was like, I love fifty but do we 796 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,800 Speaker 1: really need fifty cent? We have five incredible people. I 797 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: don't know if we need fifty cents. And then the 798 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 1: second to the same came out, I was like, pH yes, 799 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 1: fifties here and he comes out backwards with the head band, 800 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: So I was like, literally one of the best songs 801 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: that I know, I love in the club, so I 802 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 1: didn't even know if we needed And then the second 803 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 1: they have it that, man, are you kidding me? Come on? 804 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,320 Speaker 1: I was into that. That was the dopest part of 805 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 1: the halftime show for me in the club. That song 806 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,800 Speaker 1: resonates with me. I was at Penn State two thousand 807 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 1: and three. I turned twenty when this song was coming out, 808 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 1: and h yeah, to me, that was an old to 809 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 1: one of the best eras of hip hop the early 810 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 1: two thousands. That's why they needed fifty cent to come out. 811 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 1: I love man. I thought it was awesome. I thought 812 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: Mary did her thing. She killed it. Like I was 813 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 1: wondering what song she was going to do. She killed it. 814 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 1: I mean she killed it. And doctor dreda maestro. I 815 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: liked that how they kind of had him doing the 816 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 1: whole thing the whole time, kind of orchestrating the whole thing. 817 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,279 Speaker 1: That last picture, that picture that was up when we 818 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,279 Speaker 1: first showed it, it was all these guys, they looking 819 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 1: like God, some like titans like that. That meant so 820 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: much to the community that I talked about to see 821 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: and the one hundred and one hundred two years, one 822 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 1: hundred three years something like that of the NFL, of 823 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 1: the National Football League. This is the first time we 824 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 1: get a pure hip hop act like this. So proud 825 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 1: of it, So proud of the National Football League for 826 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: doing this. They killed the halftime. He loved it. And 827 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 1: I loved the ode to Los Angeles too. You said 828 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 1: you mentioned you saw before the game down. I talked 829 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:49,840 Speaker 1: to her for the game too. She should Belewood And 830 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:51,360 Speaker 1: I was just saying, how cool is this that the 831 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 1: super Bowl is here and it's these folks do awesome, 832 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,400 Speaker 1: awesome performance. And I gotta say every year, I'm amazed 833 00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 1: right at the super Bowl and what you might not 834 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 1: see at home is just a production itself, and it 835 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: is a three ring circus that is put together in 836 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 1: mere minutes and they roll out things and there's dancers 837 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: and there's soccers and everything has to be time to 838 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: the exact minute, and it works. And gosh, last night 839 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: was a party that was so cool, and to your point, 840 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: I think there was a greater message about where the 841 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 1: world is that in twenty twenty two to see them 842 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 1: have an awesome halftime show and everybody absolutely love it. 843 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,720 Speaker 1: There are fans from every walk of life, both sides, 844 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: also parts of the country West Coast. Everyone knew the 845 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: words to every song, everyone was dancing. I was more 846 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: hype the next right when Kendrick came out. I liked 847 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 1: that they didn't sing humble. I love with his musical choices, Like, 848 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 1: we haven't seen him performing so long.
