Thank you for joining us and 29 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: waking up so early to party with us and sets 30 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: the scene ahead of tonight's a huge Thursday night football matchup. 31 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: Let's talk about what's going on there behind you and 32 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: what we'll be going on hours from now top of 33 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: the morning. K Nothing is going on behind me, absolutely 34 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: nothing right now. It's just me out here. But this 35 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: is the Big Cat Bowl, you know. Other than that, 36 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,399 Speaker 1: there's two number one overall picks playing against each other, 37 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow Trevor Lawrence. That's the main selling point here. 38 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 1: I'm really looking at this Bengals team. It has been 39 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: a hot I know, You've got a lot of love 40 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: there and Cincinnati, K We got this team coming off 41 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: this Steelers matchup, Joe Burrows looking back to his old self, 42 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 1: and you got the Bengals who are trying to prevent 43 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 1: the Jaguars from playing spoiler. The Jaguars lost eighteen consecutive games. 44 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: The record is twenty six. I spent some time in 45 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: Jacksonville this week trying to figure out exactly what's going 46 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: on there, and they feel like that win is coming 47 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: maybe this week. It's a big platform Thursday Night Football. 48 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: They want to play spoiler for the Bengals who feel 49 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: like this is their showcase game going forward. Obviously the 50 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: quarterbacks will get a lot of attention, but I think 51 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: Joe Mixon could end up being the guy who steals 52 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: the show. He had one hundred and fifty one yards 53 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: two touchdowns the last time he played this Jaguars team. 54 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: Can he do it again here Thursday Night? Ken, when 55 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 1: you said it showcase game? These Bengals two in one, 56 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 1: they got some heat on them. They're coming off a win. 57 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 1: What kind of a statement are they gonna try to 58 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:21,959 Speaker 1: make tonight? And will if you like yours with that 59 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: lapel pin because that's strong. Appreciate it. Let's keep it real. 60 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: The Bengals haven't been darlings of the NFL for a while. 61 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: I spoke with Bengals corner Mike Hilton. He spent the 62 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: last five years with the Steelers. So I asked him, like, 63 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: what's your perspective of the Bengals now compared to where 64 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: it was before? And he was like, hey man, they 65 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: were the little brothers to us. Before we viewed them 66 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: as the bottom of the division, sort of bottom dwellers, 67 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: and now we feel like we've made a three sixty, 68 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: but we have to prove it. And they did it 69 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: with the Steelers win this past week, but now they 70 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: have a national audience. Talked to receiver Tyler Boyd this 71 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: week and he said that this is their statement game. 72 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: They really want to prove that they can compete with 73 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: the Ravens and the Steelers, the AFC nor if they 74 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: think they can win this division. They think they have 75 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: all the pieces. Joe Burrows healthy, Joe Mixon's there, they 76 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: got some guys on defense. They feel like this is 77 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: not the same old Bengals team. So, like you said, 78 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: showcase game, statement game. Can they go three and one 79 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: Joe Mixon second in the NFL in rushing. Jamar Chase 80 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: of course four touchdowns in three games as a rookie 81 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 1: reunited with his Q. They look good on defense too, 82 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: and we'll get to all of that. Thank you so much, 83 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: Cameron Wolf number one pick versus number one pick, and 84 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: be honest, the quarterbacks, it might be a huge matchup 85 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: for both squads of course in that division. Is Cameron 86 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: outlined there? What is the one thing that you are 87 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 1: really zeroing in on for Thursday Night football? Okay, all 88 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 1: due respect to Mike Hilton in the defense and what 89 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: the Jaguars have and Josh Allen's a great pass rusher 90 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: in there, and this is about the two quarterbacks. Cannot 91 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 1: wait to see them because it is a rematch, and 92 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: I like to go back into the Digit Murray bank 93 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: and go back. Joe Burrow just absolutely put on a 94 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: show the last two times these guys, and it was 95 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: in the National Title game and it was all LSU 96 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: right from go. It was Joe Burrows really national coming 97 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: out party. And Joe Burrow was fantastic in this title 98 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: game twenty twenty thirty one of forty nine, four hundred 99 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 1: and sixty three yards, five touchdowns. There are so many 100 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: future pros in this game. Jordan Jefferson, Jamar Chase, he 101 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: can't have on Chase on, Clyde Edwards, Hilaire on one side, 102 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, T Higgins on the other side. You can 103 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: go all through lists, and Burrow was the best one 104 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: of them. And yet here we are, and it's Week 105 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: four of the NFL. We've only seen Joe Burrow on 106 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: national television one time since he played last year in 107 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: Week two in a Thursday night game that they lost. 108 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: And here he is, and this is a team that 109 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: is two and one about to maybe go three. And 110 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow could be a star in this league. Former 111 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: first overall pick who has already beaten the almighty Trevor 112 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: Lawrence head to head in a game no one else 113 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 1: really did that in college Joe Burrow did. I cannot 114 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: wait to say these two quarterback back because it our 115 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,559 Speaker 1: avenge game for Trevor Lawrence and his coming out party. 116 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: Or is it Joe Burrow saying, you guys already know 117 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: what I do to this guy. I take care of business. 118 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna smoke us. Oh you know what my big 119 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: thing is Trevor Lawrence. Right, it's so far this season 120 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 1: he's got seven interceptions, leads the league with nine turnovers. 121 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: The thing for me is I want to see just 122 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: a great outing by him, protect the football, take care 123 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: of it, and then go out and play like the 124 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: number one pick that he's capable of playing like right now, 125 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: Like I said, he's had his troubles and again he's 126 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 1: learning as he goes and that's part of the maturation 127 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: process at this quarterback position. But if he can just 128 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: take care of the football mainly and put the ball 129 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: where he needs to play, He's got guys out there, right, 130 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: DJ Chart, Chanl, Marvin Jones, all these guys can go 131 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: out and make plays for him. He just doesn't. He's 132 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: got to realize that he doesn't have to do too much. 133 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: And that's the biggest person because the annointed, while are 134 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: you're surprised what you're seeing out there, you know what 135 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: I'm not because it's a bad football team, right, And 136 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: it's one of those things that when you're a quarterback 137 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: and you're out there, especially a young quarterback, you start 138 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: to feel that pressure that you need to make a 139 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: play and when you fall behind, which he's not used 140 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: to doing. Right throughout his college career, what he lose 141 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: three games total, and so he's not used to losing 142 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 1: ball games. So you start to feel that pressure you 143 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: need to say, oh man, I gotta make a play. 144 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: But then those four st errors become big errors. As 145 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 1: we've seen over the last few weeks. We I think, Matt, 146 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: we don't need a Picasso from him tonight. I don't 147 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 1: even know if we need a win. We need something. 148 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: You gotta give something, do you guys? Remember when when 149 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: Roger Goodell introduced Trevor Lawrence and he put on a 150 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: black turtleneck and went in front of a big screen 151 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: and there was a huge crowd here. He said, ladies 152 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: and gentlemen, the Lawrence and everybody freaked out and they're like, wow, 153 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: this is incredible. This is gonna change everything. And then 154 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: they got it and they started kind of playing with it, 155 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: and they're like why are these you two songs on here? 156 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: And like this thing doesn't work that well, and like 157 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: this is the the smartphone of quarterbacks. We got to 158 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: start working a little bit. And I do think there's 159 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: something when I'm looking for tonight is where's he it? Psychologically? 160 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: Because over the last couple of weeks. It's not just 161 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,119 Speaker 1: the throws and the accuracy. There's not a lot of buzz. 162 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: There's not a lot of fire from him. And to 163 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: the stat that you know Matt, the stat that everybody 164 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: always said about you did you know what Matt Castle 165 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: never started in college and here he isn't because you're 166 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: behind Palmer and line of stuff. That's just been the 167 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: thing people would buster chops about. The thing that because 168 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: of the lawrence is that he is never lost a 169 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: regular season game since college, since high school. So think 170 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: about it this way. He has never lost a football 171 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: game at any level and had to come back the 172 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: next week, can play another one. Every time he has 173 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: lost the game, it's into the offseason eight months, seven months, 174 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: and now he's done it for a month straight. How 175 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: much adversity is he really? How much times is he 176 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: getting beaten up? And I'd be like, God, I'm sure 177 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: i gotta play again. Never this is the first time 178 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: we were seeing him getting beaten down in college, in 179 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: high school, in the pros. I want to see what 180 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: he brings tonight, intensity and focus because he has the 181 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: smartphone and I want to play with and I look 182 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 1: at the Bengal side of it, and I said, Bengals defense, 183 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: I pumped you up yesterday. You're the sixth best in 184 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: the National Football League. Do not be the defense that 185 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence figures it out against. That's all I'm asking. 186 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: If you want to be in the mix in the 187 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: ABC North four playoff spot, do not be like the 188 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence Get right Europe Picasso game. Don't do it. 189 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,719 Speaker 1: They paid to Trey Hendrickson. This is a team that 190 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: doesn't play a lot of people. They've paid DJ Reader 191 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: when he's been healthy, after he's been really effective, especially 192 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: in that division where they have to stop the run 193 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 1: as often as they do. I will say Trey Hendrickson, 194 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 1: who they paid after having a crazy, what was it, 195 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 1: thirteen and a half sack season and a lot of 196 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: teams I think saw is an anomaly. He did his thing. 197 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: He's at two and a half sacks for the last 198 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: two games. He's proving to a lot of doubters out 199 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 1: there that he's not a one year, one season wonder. 200 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: Do not let I mean, you can't rely on Joe Burrow, 201 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: Nixon and Jamar to do everything. So I hope the 202 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 1: defense figures it out, which makes for a great game 203 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: tonight Weeks four is starting and kicking out, kicking off, 204 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: and we've got the most hyped matchups since the Super 205 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: Bowl coming on Sunday night. And that's where we're going 206 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: right now, Tom Brady's return to Fox for it's so 207 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: weird that we have you here. I guess we collecting 208 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: to discuss that one between the Buccaneers and the Patriots 209 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: four years in New England. You're very close to Brady 210 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: and Belichick. Who is the genius? I'm just gonna put 211 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: it to you like that, Who's the genius behind the football, 212 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: behind the super Bowls, behind the legacy? Is it Brady 213 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: or Belichick? Simple questions? Oh? Simple question? Right, it's not 214 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: complex at all. I mean the Jaguars Bengals go Brady 215 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: Belichick's yeah. No, Here's how I look at it. Right. 216 00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: They both deserve credit because if you look at the 217 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: three Super Bowls right that they went out and played, 218 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:07,439 Speaker 1: they won those Super Bowls by playing great defense. They're opportunistic, 219 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: they took care of the football. But Brady wasn't this 220 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: and you can go back and look at the stats, right, 221 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: he wasn't the guy that we all know and love today. 222 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: But then you go to the third Super I mean 223 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: the last three Super Bowls, and this is when you 224 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: start to see him become the goat, right, and he 225 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: generally was the goat as we got into that. But 226 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 1: he put that team on his back. Against Seattle, they 227 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: came from two touchdowns behind. Against the Atlanta Falcons, it's 228 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: twenty eight to three. I mean, are you kidding me? 229 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: How do they lose that game? Right? And then against 230 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: the Rams, they're down by they needed to score late, 231 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: and he does it. I mean, so he put that 232 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: team on his back. What I'll say is they both 233 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: deserve credit. And while Bill Belichick's the guy that kind 234 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: of put this whole structure together and everything, Tom Brady's 235 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: the guy that helped facilitate that, right, And by that, 236 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: I mean he was a guy in offseason workouts every 237 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: year that would go and win the parking spot year 238 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 1: in year out, which set the tone for the everybody there, right, 239 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 1: which I definitely at times was like, well, pump your rakes. 240 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 1: I'm definitely I beat him in every run and oh, 241 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,959 Speaker 1: are you kidding me? Let's go bro the run. I 242 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: mean That's what I'm saying. That was helpful, but I 243 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: could also left a little bit. But then you're talking 244 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: about how about how he handled his contracts? Right? He 245 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: was always the guy that took less money, and everybody 246 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: would be like, man, how is Tom Brady. People don't 247 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: talk about that, right, and so, but Bill Belichick was 248 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: able to go out there and say, look, he's taking 249 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 1: a pay cut. We are, we're not going to pay 250 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: you the maximount. Come here and you'll win ball games. Right, 251 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: And so there's so many different factors to how Brady 252 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: helped Belichick. But at the same time, you know, it 253 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: was one of those situations that it just worked together. 254 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: So I think they both deserve credit, and I'm not 255 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: going to say one deserves more than the other. But 256 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: it's just interesting their tenure together and how how many 257 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: different angles you can look at it from. You were 258 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: there for four years and it was in the first 259 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: half of the Brady Belichick relationship. Was there a great 260 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 1: fondness between the two or was it you know, coach 261 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: fifty three players or was it Hey, Tom Brady and 262 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick. Those guys are some potago. Oh that's definitely 263 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: not of those where you walked down the hallway and 264 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: be like, oh, they're hand in hand, all right, it's 265 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: it was a work working relationship, right. He was the boss, 266 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: Brady was the players player, and there was a very 267 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: significant divide there, right, And you would understand that as 268 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 1: a player too, Like there was no blurring those lines. 269 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: And so as a player, you understood where you were 270 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: with Bill Belichick. You understood where you were with the team. 271 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 1: But that also allowed Bill to go out and hold 272 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 1: people accountable in the team meeting, right, He wasn't going 273 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: to play pavoritism. And Brady was one of those guys 274 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: again that helped facilitate that where he can call Brady out, well, 275 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: he can hold you accountable. And no one person's bigger 276 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: than a team. So and that was a huge statement 277 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: for that organization and why I think they'd been able 278 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: to win. And you hear this Patriot wait, well that 279 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:44,719 Speaker 1: was that was part of it. We have a lot 280 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: of time to talk with us over two days. My 281 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: take has always been, if Bill Belichick never met Tom Brady, 282 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: I don't think Bill Belichick is a super Bowl champion. 283 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: If Tom Brady had never had Bill Belichick in his life, 284 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,719 Speaker 1: I think he has multiple rings. Fair unfair. I think 285 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: it's fair. Yeah. I mean, at the end of the day, 286 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: let's be honest, there's great coaches out there, and Bill 287 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: Belichick's probably the greatest coaches of our generation. But great 288 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:12,439 Speaker 1: players make great coach. It's a big morning when it's 289 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: the trivia day and we go it's bag trivia.

Give me a little challenge here. Now. You 307 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: famously played on a college USA team that churned out 308 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: two other top ten picks NFL starting quarterbacks, right, Matt 309 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: Liner and Carson Palmer. Carson Palmer won the Heisman in 310 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: two thousand and two. Okay, he was number one overall 311 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: picked the following year. The question is this, who finished 312 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: second in voting in the Heisman in two thousand and two? 313 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: This is a trivia gift from the gods. Hey Byron 314 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: Leftwitch at Marshall, B. Ken Dorsey at Miami, ce Cliff 315 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: Kingsbury at Texas Tech, or D Brad Banks. A Well, Matt, 316 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: I will tell you all four of these men finished 317 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: in the top ten that year in the Heisman. Who 318 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 1: was second? I'm gonna go with B. Ken Dorsey Miami. Okay, 319 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: you're reasoning my reasoning because he went to Miami and 320 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: they were pretty good back then too. What would you 321 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: say if I told you you were wrong? I would 322 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: probably it's Brad Banks. It is Brad Banks. Twenty six 323 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: touchdowns five interceptions. Brad Banks led the Hawkeyes all the 324 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: way to the Orange Ball, which lost two the USC Trojans. 325 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: I should have known that it was kind of I 326 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: thought it was a trick question. I was like, Brad, 327 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: there's no way right we played them. Correct me if 328 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: I'm wrong. Brad Banks starting tight end and all American 329 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: Dallas Clark, oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, great team, great team, 330 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: Ken Dorsey, Byron Leftwitch, and Kingsbury all would finish in 331 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: the top ten of that year. But it was Brad 332 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: Banks number two. And you were in that quarterback room, 333 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: You've got probably plenty. We definitely blew the doors off 334 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: that team. Yes, that was great. Nicholasha and Jessica were there. 335 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: I may now, okay, do you want to choose one 336 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: from yester year? From modern times? Where do you want 337 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: to go on? Definitely not yesteryear. I will go top 338 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: overall pick quarterbacks of now Okaya last year Joe Burrow, Yes, 339 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: an NFL rookie record because he had three straight games 340 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: where he had three hundred or more passing yards. It's 341 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: never been done before. Which rookie quarterback who was a 342 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: first overall pick has the most passing yards in a season. Wow. 343 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: And I say modern times because we're going back a 344 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: little bit with Stafford. But let's just put it through 345 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: that lens. Okay, not Baker, it is not Kyler. It 346 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: is either Andrew Luck or Matthew Stafford. Andrew Luckman and 347 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: when he came in and took over was incredible. But 348 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Matthew Stafford because you were on the 349 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: book Loves Matthew Stafford and you love the Rams, so 350 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: you're trying to make some eloquent points about how he 351 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 1: now gets his time and he'll go to the super Bowl. 352 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford. Luokie went to and eight oh. Andrew Luck 353 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: took his team eleven and five, went to the playoffs 354 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: through a rookie record forty three hundred passing yards. Tell 355 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 1: these amazing, as I was rookie and like one game's 356 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: on his own back. It was incredible. He was taking 357 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: him the playoffs three straight years, and Luck was unbelieve. 358 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: This is the year that, of course, Chuck Pagano fell ill, 359 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: Bruce arians came in as the head coach and they 360 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: just opened it wide open. And it was t Y 361 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: Hilton as a rookie and it was Reggie Wayne as 362 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: a veteran. Andrew Luck's throwing his body around forty three 363 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: hundred yards rookie quarterback. Incredible, so insane. All right, Peter, 364 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: I kind of a sham you you did not mention 365 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: it so far. It's Fran Dresser's birthday today, Happy birthday. 366 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: And Lacy Shabert, we love you.

Secure the bag, Kyle, all right, 369 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: this is a former Patriot as well. Drew Bledsoe was 370 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: the first overall pick by the New England Patriots in 371 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety three. The host in the musical guest of 372 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: Saturday Night Live the week before Drew Bledsoe entered the 373 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 1: NFL was who Oh Wow. A Monique and silver chair 374 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: b Dave Winfield and the Stone Roses see Kirsty Alley 375 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: and Lenny Kravitz or b or D Paul Rudd and 376 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: the singer of scaff Man Scatman. John all Right, I'm 377 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: looking at Rudd. I think Clueless was like three years later. 378 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 1: I think he was doing a Nintendo commercial at the time. 379 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: If he was Lucky it's not him. I'm gonna start 380 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: at the top. Monique and Silver Chair didn't blow up 381 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 1: till ninety five. It wasn't them. You couldn't be Winfield 382 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 1: and Stone Road Frog stop. I still listen to it. 383 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 1: Uh see. Csti Alli has an infamous sketch regarding Italian 384 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: waiters that probably now you couldn't do. But is she 385 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: and Kevin Nealon and they're just kissing it? Sound is 386 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 1: one of the waiters. And then if it's me, They said, 387 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: don't do any more of this, and Sandlers said, I 388 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 1: thought he was saying do more of this, and so 389 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 1: he did. I think it's Kristialley. Do you like, Yeah, Yes, 390 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: that's it, Peter, that's the crack pepper with that big 391 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: old bed Knaas. You're right. Seventeen nineteen ninety three, no 392 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: one there knew that Drew Bledsoe would be the first pick. 393 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: Only seven days later in the draft. No one knew, 394 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: and they were talking about it wasn't a sketch. I 395 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: mean everyone's like kristi Ally was like, it's gonna be 396 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: rick Meyer or blood Cell, Like what's gonna heard. Krevitz 397 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: did a song called Wallah Wallah and he was just 398 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 1: adlin crew. That's it. Let's go to the video clue. Okay, 399 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: video clue. Here's how it works. I'm gonna set you 400 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: guys up with the start of a play. I'm gonna 401 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,679 Speaker 1: say freeze, and it's about a former number one overall pick, 402 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: and I have to guess what happens the rest of 403 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: the play. So let's go to Michael Vick, former number 404 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: one overall pick of the Atlanta Falion. It's week thirteen, 405 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: it's two thousand and two, it's over time, twenty four, 406 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 1: twenty four. Kenny Alberts on the calle. Stop it right here, guys, 407 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: what happens. I'm gonna give you the choices and Nat 408 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: we'll start with you will go to k then Kyle, 409 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: is it either a Brian Finneran touchdown reception, me Algae 410 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 1: Crumbler touchdown reception? Does Vic himself run? Or is it 411 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: one of the coolest players at TJ. Duckett halfback pass 412 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: walk off win for the Falcons. Man. I mean, if 413 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 1: you're talking about Michael Vick, I'm going with c forty 414 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: six yard game winning touchdown run, his explosiveness, everything that 415 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 1: goes along with his game, and that's was always the 416 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 1: part that I loved watching. So I'm going with c 417 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 1: forty six yard game winning t D run. Let's go 418 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: Vick here, right, but I will for fun go D 419 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: with t J. Duck at halfback pass two Michael Vick 420 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 1: like that one Michigan State legend. Absolutely. I was actually 421 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: gonna go with that too, but for the sake of variety, 422 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: Big Brian Finneran went about seven foot five, also a 423 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: South Thorns County guy. Think, I hope I'm not messing 424 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: that up. Maybe I'm wrong. I think it's Brian finner 425 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: who goes up in high points. It never mind moston 426 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: someone you finneraninner a huge matter player.

Michael Vick number one overall. 436 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: Pick that castle, thanks you playing trivia. Start with the Bears, 437 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: it's going out the quarterback situation, and then wide receiver 438 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: with the Titans this weekend. Any updates okay. All three 439 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: Bears quarterbacks were on the press actic field on Wednesday, 440 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 1: and the team plans to take the week to evaluate 441 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 1: health before naming a starting quarterback for Sunday's game against 442 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 1: the Lion. Coach Matt Nagy made clear the depth chart 443 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: has not changed if he is healthy. Andy Dalton remains 444 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,360 Speaker 1: the starting quarterback, but Dalton was limited in practice on Wednesday, 445 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: so he continues to make his way back from that 446 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: bone bruise in his knee. Rookie Justin Fields still the 447 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 1: number two. He fully participated in practice, but did so 448 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 1: with a rap embrace on his throwing hand after getting 449 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: banged up in that rough NFL's starting debut. Nick Foles 450 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: is the one healthy guy, but he's still number three 451 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: on the depth chart. In other injury news, the Titans 452 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: could be without both their starting wide receivers on Sunday 453 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: against the Jets. Julio Jones has been getting treatment on 454 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: what the team is calling a hamstring injury. He did 455 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: not practice on Wednesday's status for Sunday is up in 456 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 1: the air. Also, his teammate A. J. Brown expected to 457 00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: miss a week or two because of his own hamstring injury. 458 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 1: So a good week to get to know the names 459 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: Chester Rogers, Nick Westbrook, Akeena. Also Derrick Henry already has 460 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: twelve catches this season. That is just seven short of 461 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: his career high for an entire season. Okay, they might 462 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 1: call up our friend Golden Tape, I mean Victor Cruz, 463 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: who was sitting here the other day to help them out. 464 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 1: Thank you so much, Tom Hill. Sarah, you're coming to 465 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 1: us from Minneapolis. We have a storry about Jared Allen 466 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 1: vikings great with Mac Castwall coming off. Do not miss that. 467 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: But let's welcome in Sarah Wals. She's with the Tampa 468 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers. Mike gi already coming to us, I believe 469 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: from New England. Sarah, let's start with you. I understand 470 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 1: Tom Brady facing the Patriots is a kind of a 471 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: big deal this weekend. How what's going on? Well, we've 472 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: sort of heard that, Kay, Good morning. Look Tom is 473 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: going to head up to Foxborough with his full offensive 474 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: Arsenal joining him. Antonio Brown is expected to come off 475 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 1: that COVID list today. They didn't have him last week 476 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: in that loss against the Rams, and a b absolutely 477 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: went off in Week one against the Cowboys. Now there's 478 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 1: a couple of different ways guys are looking at this game. 479 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: Safety Jordan Whitehead said yesterday, we're going in there with 480 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: a chip on our shoulders for Tom Brady and Rob 481 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 1: Grunkowski because those are our brothers. And then there's another 482 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: way of looking at it. Mike Evans said, this is 483 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: a bounce back game for us. That's really our focus 484 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 1: this week. And look, it's not like Tom or Gronk 485 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: needed any more motivation, but this is a Buccaneers team 486 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: highly motivated because it did not leave a good taste 487 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: in their mouth the way that that game played out 488 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: last week in Los Angeles. So extra motivation for this 489 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 1: team as a whole. And we've heard Bruce Arians say 490 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: that ninety eight percent of these guys this isn't significant 491 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,400 Speaker 1: to them other than it just being another road game. 492 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: But this is a team that wants to win and 493 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: wants to get back on the right track. As for 494 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, we recently heard his father take some shots 495 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 1: at Bill Belichick his trainer. Don't expect to hear that 496 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 1: out of Tom when we hear him talk today. He's 497 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 1: been repeatedly asked about this game since this season kicked off, 498 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: and he has repeatedly said he has nothing but fond 499 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,439 Speaker 1: memories of his time in New England. He is not 500 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: going to be giving them any bulletin board material. The 501 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,199 Speaker 1: Bucks are going to practice around eleven Eastern today and 502 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 1: then Tom will meet with the media for the first 503 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: and only time this week at one Eastern. Now for 504 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: more on Brady's former place of employment, here's Mike Giardi 505 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,959 Speaker 1: in New England. Well, Sarah, Tom doesn't have to do 506 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: it if everyone else is. He can take the high 507 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,919 Speaker 1: road while his trainer and his dad takes shots at 508 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 1: the Patriots. Meanwhile, you guys were talking about movies, right, 509 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 1: How about Thomas Kazanski. You remember him from Top Gun 510 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty six. I know I'm dating myself a little bit, 511 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 1: but his call sign for Val Kilmer was iceman, And that, 512 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 1: my friends, is what Mac Jones wants to be. See. 513 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 1: We're already getting into body language with mac Jones. After 514 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: Week three against the Saints, he sat slumped on the bench. 515 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 1: The game is over, everybody's getting in to the middle 516 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: of the field. He's still on the bench with his 517 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 1: head down. Jamis Winston actually came over to him and 518 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: that sort of woke mack up, if you will, and 519 00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,679 Speaker 1: got him out of his slumber. There. He started to 520 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: walk to great other players and then Bill Belichick grabbed 521 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: him by the wrist, sort of spun him around and 522 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: they went back in the tunnel. We've talked to Josh 523 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: McDaniels this week about how Mac is handling things that 524 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 1: He said, look, they're going to be highs and lows 525 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 1: during the course of a practice, during a game, and 526 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 1: you want to be even keeled. And when I asked 527 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: Mac about that yesterday, said, I've done a lot of 528 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: work on keeping my emotions flatline and stable. He said, 529 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 1: I look at some of the veterans on this team, 530 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 1: like Devin mccordy and Matthew Slater, and I see cool, 531 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: I see steady, and that's what I want to be. 532 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: That's what I need to be for this football team. 533 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: As for facing Tom Brady, he says there's no pressure here. 534 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 1: He said, it's not one on one. We have eleven 535 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,199 Speaker 1: guys on offense against they're eleven on defense. If we 536 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 1: all do our job, we'll get better results. And he said, yeah, 537 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: I studied Tom Brady for a long time when I 538 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 1: was in high school and college. But this is just 539 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: another game. We have to get a win. That's all 540 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: that matters. Kay, you cannot fall in this one, of course, 541 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: not in that division, not against Tom Brady. Must win 542 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: games and big statement games on both sides. Thank you 543 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 1: so much to Sarah Walsh and Mike Giardi there. We'll 544 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 1: talk to you throughout the week, of course, eating into 545 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 1: that matchup. Week four kicks off tonight, but Sunday, yes, 546 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: Tom Brady goes back to Foxbro and Matt. There's a 547 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: lot of people reminiscing about, Oh, the first time I 548 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 1: played in the stadium, I started my career, and there's 549 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 1: a lot of that going on in the air. There's 550 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: an article you can read at NFL dot com right 551 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: now where former NFL players aren't reminiscing about that. And 552 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: there's a great little clip where Jared Allen is talking 553 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: about his first game back in Kansas City as a 554 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 1: Minnesota Viking, where he apparently got to you and was 555 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: hearing stuff in the crowd. We have beautiful Yes, can 556 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: you take me through what happens here in this play? 557 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: Let's see you. We got to play action boot and 558 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 1: I should have thrown that ball away, you know, the 559 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 1: little when you say you just kind of give it up, 560 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:44,640 Speaker 1: and you know what, I was just trying to help 561 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: him out. He's super excited. I'm gonna make you squeal, boy, 562 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: he does this little thing, you know. U TI. Yeah, 563 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: definitely should have thrown that one away and just kind 564 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 1: of wanted to take a little bit of beating. But 565 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 1: don't get yourself. We won that game. So yeah, oh yeah, man, 566 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: we won that game. So like, let's pump the break. 567 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,120 Speaker 1: Is this reunion at old stadiums? Is it really a thing? 568 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: Do you have a story or something that you remember 569 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 1: from you playing in a reunion sort of game and 570 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,199 Speaker 1: if going back to your old team stadium. I do 571 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: remember the only time that really I got the opportunity 572 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: to was when I was with Minnesota and I got 573 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 1: to go back for a preseason game and to Kansas City, 574 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: and I do remember hitting Cordell Patterson over the top. 575 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 1: And I'm not going to say it was like yes, 576 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna say it was like, yes, you know, 577 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,120 Speaker 1: it was pretty fired up. And I know it's preseason, 578 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,679 Speaker 1: you're not supposed to get fired up about it, but 579 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 1: it was one of those moments like you just want 580 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: to go show out right, you're competitive and all of 581 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: us want to go, especially when it's your old team 582 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 1: will let you go and stuff like that. You want 583 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: to go out and play well, and even if it's 584 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: a preseason game. But then when I also was in 585 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: Kansas City, I was marked to go back to the 586 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: Patriots and play the Patriots, and you know, in your 587 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: mind you kind of circle out a little bit. But 588 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: then I broke my hand. Von Miller decided to hit me, 589 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: and I laying it on my hand broke my finger 590 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 1: in hand. So it's like we have this story book 591 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,920 Speaker 1: of how this is going to go very differently. Yeah, 592 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: it can go very differently, but I mean there's always 593 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,159 Speaker 1: motivation when you're playing in your your opposing team or 594 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 1: even coaches that you used to play. You know Brady 595 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: pretty well. Do you think he addresses the crowd and 596 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,439 Speaker 1: waves and doesn't any sorr? Is he just dialed in? 597 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:07,959 Speaker 1: Is all a baufalbar? Do you think he gives a 598 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: moment to maybe wave his hand and say, hey, guys, 599 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: I appreciate all you do as well. I don't know. 600 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: I think what he'll do is run down how he 601 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: always does and give the chair let's go, and he'll 602 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: fire it up and probably the crowd at that point. 603 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I can't imagine that this isn't going to 604 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: be a warm reception. At that point the Dawson or 605 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: named Brady are and half the dogs too. Yeah. The 606 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: funny part about the Jared Allen play with you is 607 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: that the Arra had cheered. They cheered the Vikings pass rusher. 608 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 1: So do you think there's any scenario in which the 609 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:42,959 Speaker 1: Foxboro fans boo Brady, including him scoring a Russian touchdown, 610 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: spiking the ball and screaming and head bunny his teammates. 611 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: I do not see this now. I don't see this 612 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: crowd really, you know, turn on Tom Brady. I mean 613 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: for what he did for twenty years, the dedication that 614 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: he had, the championships that he brought to that city, 615 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: a lot of good memories there. Yes, there's gonna be 616 00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: people that are hurt, right, but a lot of people 617 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: are not blame it on Brady. They'll blame it on 618 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: unfortunately Bill Belichick and an organization for not getting the 619 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: job done and not bringing him back. So for him, 620 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: it's gonna be like, hey, guys, good reunion. Good to 621 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: see everybody that gets along with all the family members, 622 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: like it'll be interesting. You hyped up this game so 623 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: much from when we got the schedule release, we're looking 624 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: at when it is. How are you feeling about it now? 625 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: Days out? Well, schedule release comes out, We're fired up, 626 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: and I start calling it a super Bowl fifty five 627 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: and a half. That was when we thought it maybe 628 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: us and became Newton versus bradse it's just a little 629 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 1: more flash. It didn't help last week in the hype 630 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: that they both lost, and yet here we are, and 631 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: I still find it just as fascinating for their own 632 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: three because it's Brady and versus Belichick. I'm not terribly 633 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: interested in Mac Jones role in this thing, you know, Matt, 634 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: you kind of says something quickly there and let people 635 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: blame Belichick for letting Brady get away. What was your 636 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 1: reaction when he left? What was your take on why 637 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 1: Brady left the Patriots? Well, I mean to be honest 638 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 1: with you, I was sitting there and I was shocked 639 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: myself that they couldn't. Like the powers that be, whether 640 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: it's Kraft Belichick, they've always been able to work it out, 641 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 1: give him what he wants. He only wants a few 642 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: more years. But I think at the end of the day, 643 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: Tom Brady was evaluating all the circumstances, evaluating where he 644 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 1: could potentially go, and he looked at Tampa Bay's roster 645 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 1: and he said, man, they've got the pieces in place 646 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: for me to go be successful, for me to show 647 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: out because the year before I know that there was 648 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 1: a huge level of frustration in terms of their production 649 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: and also the lack of weapons. And he said, I 650 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: want to surround myself. I only got a few more 651 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: years to go do this. I believe in. You know, 652 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: he can say he's gonna played to fifty. Bill's never 653 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: gonna let that happen. With that being said, like, he 654 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: just saw that I can go be productive here and 655 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 1: go out and play with guys that are going to 656 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: put me in a position to be successful and showcase 657 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: my skill set. And that's really what it came down to. 658 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 1: Hug for Kraft before the game, Oh big hug and 659 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 1: a kiss and kiss there, Okay, but what about Belichick 660 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: before the game. I think it'll probably be a handshake 661 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: like a conversation. I think they're going to be cordial. 662 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: You know, it was kiss from Kraft, kiss from Check 663 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: kiss and hugged from Craft. Is there an embrace from 664 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 1: Belichick after the game or is it a body space 665 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 1: separated handshake? You know the way that Tom is though, 666 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: He's always been one of those guys that I've respected 667 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: for how he carries himself, how he handles these situations. 668 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: He'll go up and be a class act like he 669 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 1: always is. Right, I think that they'll give each other 670 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: hug unless they absolutely blow them out in Belichick's kind 671 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: of a little bit embarrassing, might like say, but then 672 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: it would be mac Jones. It doesn't get the handshake right. 673 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: You've pointed out several times where Yeah, sometimes has stiff 674 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 1: guys on the postgame handshake's done with Nick Foles twice. 675 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: It feels a little gratuitous here, But I've gone in 676 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: on it, and yet I do think that I find 677 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: that at that moment he in Belichick absolutely fascinating, especially 678 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: if the Bucks blow him out. Does Belichick have the 679 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: gall to give Brady a blow by like he's given 680 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: other guys before. No way, no way, no way, because 681 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 1: you know the factormentors will all be talking about look 682 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 1: at this, and it's gonna be ony. Think he's gonna 683 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 1: have to ask still talking about miss hands. Absolutely, I 684 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: know it's the snub at the end of the game 685 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 1: that everybody's like, Oh, what's what's going on there? If 686 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: this relationship, what do you think? I think that's the 687 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 1: real game, like bats Bucks is fine. I think the 688 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 1: post game is the game at a Penn State. It's 689 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 1: Packers safety Adrian Amoye. We've had you on the show 690 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: since a very start, back when you were in Chicago 691 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: and now you're with Green Bay and here you are today. 692 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: We gotta start with that dramatic win against the forty 693 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: nine ers last week. San Francisco goes with the go 694 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: ahead score, Rogers gets the ball back with thirty seconds 695 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 1: on the clock. What were you thinking once the future 696 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer had the rock in his hands. Oh 697 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: for sure. When you're in that situation, um, you know 698 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: you kind of down that you gave up that touchdown 699 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: on defense, but then um, getting to the sideline, you 700 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: have full confidence in our offense. We didn't seen him 701 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: doing it a million times you seen him doing in 702 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 1: practicing games and everything, so, um, you know, it was 703 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 1: just it was fun to watch. He was just sitting 704 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: there and he was like, it's about to happen. Adrian, 705 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: you were named Packers team captain this season. This is 706 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 1: your seventh season in the league. You're third with Green Bay. 707 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: What do you think you bring to this Packers defense 708 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,479 Speaker 1: both on and off the field. I just feel like, 709 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: you know, I'm never too high, never too low. And 710 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: you know, I try to be consistent, you know, every 711 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: every single day. I want my teammates to know what 712 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 1: they're getting when they you know, when when they see 713 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: me out there on the field off the field, I 714 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 1: just want to be accountable. So um, you know, I 715 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: just try to bring that and I bring that same 716 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 1: energy every day, um, you know, and hopefully that you 717 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 1: know that that that um picks us up, you know, 718 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 1: especially on the defensive side of the ball, um to 719 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 1: being one of those top units. Next up, it's the Steelers, Adrian, 720 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: Week four. The offense has struggled objectively in recent weeks. 721 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 1: We're here at the table talking about injuries. Is big Ben? 722 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: Big Ben, He's not even looking downfield at alone throwing downfield. 723 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 1: Do you sense some blood in the water or what 724 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: are you seeing specifically in preparing for Ben Roethlisberger. Um, 725 00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: when we prepared preparing for him, we're preparing for what 726 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: he can do, what they have shown in the past. 727 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: It's still early in the season, so you don't really 728 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 1: know what their identity is. You have teams that start 729 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: off sought off real hot. You have teams to start 730 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: off slow. We just want to make sure that we're 731 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 1: not the team they, you know, pick up momentum with. 732 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: So we have to, you know, stay on them. We 733 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: have to you know, still, you know, watch what his 734 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 1: ability is. And he likes to get the ball downfield, 735 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: and he have you know, a lot of guys that 736 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: he can get the ball too. It's true a wounded 737 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: animals dangerous thing. And the Steelers have a lot of 738 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: pride and a lot of history that says they're not 739 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: just going to roll over Adrian. This summer it was 740 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:41,280 Speaker 1: Shakespearean theater with your quarterback Aaron Rodgers, every show, our show, 741 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: all day Hawaii and all this drama will he won't he? 742 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,360 Speaker 1: And then the press conference when he showed up was 743 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,240 Speaker 1: very unique. You've been his teammate now for a few years, 744 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 1: he has this vibe of tranquility and inner peace. What 745 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 1: do you see differently from Aaron Rodgers off the field, 746 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: in the facility, around the hallways. What do you see 747 00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: differently than you have in years past? Um Man, this 748 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: is the same guy that you know I've seen as 749 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: soon as I got here. Um, he's he's been a 750 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: guy that's um. You know, he's about his teammates. He's 751 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: a he's about ball. Um. You know, he really like 752 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: he's someone that genuinely doesn't you know, UM show that 753 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: he cares about the outside, the outside forces and everything. 754 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,359 Speaker 1: And as long as UM he made sure is that 755 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: we know, um what he's thinking, and we know that 756 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 1: he's here in present. Um, you know he cares about that. 757 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 1: And he also cares about what we do off the 758 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: field too, and UM he wants us to do. Um. 759 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: You know, when we have other things that we're thinking 760 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 1: about other than football, but when it's football time, he's 761 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 1: he's all about ball. Now, earlier this week I saw 762 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 1: that you saw a preview of football life. Calvin Johnson. 763 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 1: You tweeted, I don't care what anybody says if I'm 764 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 1: picking a team. My first two receivers are Moss and Megatron. Now, 765 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: Megatron actually coming on the show. He's visiting right after 766 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,320 Speaker 1: you after this commercial break, so I'm sure he's listening 767 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: right now because he's getting ready to come on. What 768 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:05,280 Speaker 1: did you admire so much about his game specifically? Um, 769 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: I just remember my my rookie year the first time 770 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: coming out the tunnel at Detroit and you know, just 771 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 1: seeing Megatron and um, you know he just looks like 772 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 1: Lebron James and and uh and shoulder pads in a helmet. So, um, 773 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,800 Speaker 1: you know, he's just a guy. He's he's big, he's fast, 774 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 1: like you know, he's one of the fastest receivers. Um. 775 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 1: You know you've seen, we've seen. And he also you know, 776 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 1: bigger than all the tight ends you're gonna play against 777 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 1: as well. So somebody like that being able to do 778 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,879 Speaker 1: everything and that a small receiver can do, um at 779 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: that size, is you know that that's just one of 780 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 1: the in a million or you know it's only one 781 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,399 Speaker 1: of him ever, So UM, you know, a guy like that, 782 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 1: that's who I want on my roster. That could just 783 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 1: thought up no matter who the quarterback is. There hasn't 784 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: been anyone like him. Since um, Smash, we gott get 785 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: out of the serious stuff here. Aaron Rodgers says he's 786 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 1: growing this hair along for a Halloween costume. Uh, we've 787 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,760 Speaker 1: been taking our guesses here at the table. Any idea 788 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 1: what the long hair tickling the shoulders is? What is 789 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:08,919 Speaker 1: the Halloween costume? Guests from Starting Safety Adrian amos Man. 790 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: I don't really have a guess. I haven't really thought 791 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 1: about it too much. I heard him say that, but 792 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 1: I haven't really thought about that, you know. I just, 793 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 1: you know, want to be surprised. Last year, I don't 794 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,399 Speaker 1: even know where he went as or two years ago, 795 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 1: so um, you know, and I saw him and I 796 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 1: saw him on Halloween, so I mean it's probably gonna 797 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 1: be something that, you know, I've never seen before. So 798 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 1: we'll see unprecedented Halloween costume from Aaron Rodgers, first seen before, 799 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: tweeted out that's it.

They're all joining 824 00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:58,800 Speaker 1: us now now I'm just kidding. I don't know. I 825 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 1: Frandy Moss is going to join us, but I just 826 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,319 Speaker 1: figured why not. Megatron, though, is coming up hopefully after 827 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: this up topic. Okay, you didn't mention this Steelers is 828 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 1: in the Packers. Yeah, put it out there under the evening. 829 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,360 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. You had mentioned the Packers and 830 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: the Steelers. Of course, the last time Ben Roethlisberger and 831 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers faced each other was back in Super Bowl 832 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,799 Speaker 1: forty five. Coincidentally, that was the last time the two 833 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 1: franchises actually went to the big Game, with the Packers 834 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 1: coming away with the big win. A big Bend. Actually 835 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 1: spoke with reporters recently and was asked about facing Rogers. 836 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:36,320 Speaker 1: You know, the whole cliche. Everyone says the quarterbacks against 837 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 1: each other, but and then we'll say, no, we play 838 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 1: against the defense, you know. But it's still it's an 839 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 1: honor to share a stadium with one of the greatest 840 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 1: and a guy that I admired. A lot of people 841 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 1: admire that that has just done it at such a 842 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 1: high level for a long time. So it's pretty cool 843 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 1: to watch his mastery of the game. Um, I just 844 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,359 Speaker 1: hope that this week our defense can can hold up 845 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, maybe have something to say. We'll see. 846 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: It will be fun to watch for sure. In New York, 847 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 1: the Giants still looking for that first win of the season. 848 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 1: Head coach Joe Judge was or has based some criticism 849 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: with some play calling and in game decisions. But if 850 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: you're looking for him to rely on game analytics, well, 851 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 1: don't hold your breath. Analytics is just a tool. It's 852 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 1: nice to look at the numbers and how they go 853 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 1: through the flow of the game, but the analytics change 854 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,640 Speaker 1: is based on the opponent, based on who you have 855 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 1: available for the game, and how the flow of games 856 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 1: going too. You can look at a statute all you want. 857 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 1: I promise you if if XL was gonna win football games, 858 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:42,800 Speaker 1: Bill Gates will be killing it right now. No word 859 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 1: if the GMT have reached out to Bill Gates personally 860 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 1: to break down a game plan. But I'm sure the 861 00:40:48,480 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: Giants wished they had this guy Megatron. But SMA, what's 862 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:12,839 Speaker 1: Calvin comes up? Oh, I'll ask you to throw look 863 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 1: at deep bright stock. Got Calvin out there, hit the 864 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,760 Speaker 1: big stock, not gonna catch you touchdown? To tart Lions 865 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 1: ninety six yards. I'm joining us right now? Is that 866 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: very man? That Megatron and newly and Trine Hall of Famer, 867 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 1: one of the most dominant receivers of all time, a 868 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 1: three time All Pro known for catching passes over multiple 869 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 1: defenders at once, please welcome back to the breakfast table. Megatron. 870 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 1: You can't get it? Yeah, come on, can't it. I 871 00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 1: know it's it's weird that all coincides with Nape Burlison leaving, 872 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 1: but you do them that there, let's talk about a 873 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 1: football life. I'm so excited about this. You can see 874 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 1: it right here on NFL Network nine pm Eastern tomorrow. 875 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 1: We get it. We know what you do on the field, 876 00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 1: we know what you did. We know why you have 877 00:41:58,400 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 1: that gold jacket. What are we going to see in 878 00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 1: the episode that you're excited for others to sort of 879 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 1: learn about you. Yeah, just you know, filling back to 880 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,400 Speaker 1: curtain a little bit, you know, learning more about the family, 881 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,160 Speaker 1: a little bit more about you know, what I did, 882 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 1: why I did it, how I did and when I 883 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: played the game. You know, we got a draft of it, 884 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: but I couldn't even watch it. You know, I don't 885 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: like watching my stuff. I hate hearing myself to speak, 886 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,960 Speaker 1: so I couldn't even watch it. Wow, we like watching 887 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 1: to do everything, Calvin and except retire. You retired and 888 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,840 Speaker 1: returned to your home planet of Cybertront a lot earlier 889 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 1: than we wanted you to, but we did get nine 890 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: good years out of you before you transformed and rolled out. 891 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 1: I know you're very much a piece and you're happy 892 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 1: in retirement, but there's gotta be days, maybe on Sundays 893 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 1: were you miss playing the game? What do you miss 894 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 1: most about football? And do you ever find yourself wondering 895 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 1: what if I had played a few more years? The 896 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:51,840 Speaker 1: one thing you definitely miss the moth about football is 897 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 1: all the guys man just hanging out and the guys 898 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: in the locked room with the families. Awful feel you know. 899 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody's gonna sit here and say they 900 00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 1: missed the grind of the game. Of course, that's what 901 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 1: makes the game of football feel great, you know, especially 902 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 1: you know, putting it together with those guys you know, 903 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,840 Speaker 1: and into celebrating. So it's all about the team, the camaraderie. 904 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,879 Speaker 1: That's what you missed the most. After how things ended 905 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 1: there in Detroit, the Lions bring you back and paid 906 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,640 Speaker 1: tribute to your Hall of Fame induction this past Sunday. 907 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:19,759 Speaker 1: You were there with a ring ceremony. You didn't have 908 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 1: much to say there. The crowd loved you, obviously. What 909 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 1: were the emotions of being back and both sweet and 910 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 1: then of course bitter sweet with how things ended? Yeah, 911 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 1: I mean for me, it was really sweet. You know, 912 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:34,719 Speaker 1: it was almost tier jerker. They're just sitting there on 913 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 1: the field watching the highlights here and my family talked here, 914 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 1: and former teammates talk coaches. You know, it really takes 915 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:42,759 Speaker 1: you back to those moments, you know, and almost you know, 916 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 1: Church some tears out of me while standing there, But 917 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 1: it was great just to sit there in front of 918 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 1: the home fans, go back there and be recognized, be 919 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,239 Speaker 1: there with those guys once again. You know, the energy 920 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:54,239 Speaker 1: is great. I love the energy was great when I 921 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: played there, and it's the Churchy bretity to play. Yeah, Calvin, 922 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 1: how are you, buddy? You know you played with Matthew 923 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 1: Stafford in Detroit for seven of your nine seasons. He's 924 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:05,359 Speaker 1: played three games for the Rams, and there's a strong 925 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: argument that this guy's already the MVP after three weeks 926 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,239 Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on his performances so far and 927 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:12,959 Speaker 1: how far do you think he can take this team? 928 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 1: Obviously you played with him and they have a lot 929 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:19,320 Speaker 1: of good memories. Matthew has an arm really almost unlike 930 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:21,319 Speaker 1: anybody else in the NFL. You know, he could put 931 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:23,440 Speaker 1: that ball, he could reach anybody anywhere on the field. 932 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:25,319 Speaker 1: So it's great to see him in a place like this. 933 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 1: That s where that first game I watched, I swear 934 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,279 Speaker 1: I sat Andrews the moment I thought Matthew, the camera 935 00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 1: cutting the Matthew and he was like, I feel like 936 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: they're the sent of him being like, wow, I can't 937 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 1: believe it. It's easy. Like if we're in Detroit, something 938 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 1: would happen by now. But right right now, there are 939 00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: plenty of explosive whiteouts across the NFL. Right now, we 940 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:47,719 Speaker 1: highlight them for three hours a day here on Good 941 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,759 Speaker 1: Morning Football. Let's focus on the younger ones though, Of 942 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 1: the guys that have maybe just a year, maybe they're 943 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 1: in their first year, a year or two of experience, 944 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:57,439 Speaker 1: who do you think could be the NFL's best soon 945 00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:01,640 Speaker 1: work their way into that. That's tough. You got so 946 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 1: many good receivers, I mean if we're talking about rookies, 947 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 1: first years, you know, and you got the DK's of 948 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 1: the world you got. I love seeing Ceedee Lamb. I 949 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 1: mean I love watching that kid go up and make 950 00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 1: a play on the ball. Um geez, man, I feel 951 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 1: bad every time you get asked this question. I'm gonna 952 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:19,879 Speaker 1: leave somebody up. Um, shoot, who else we gotta help 953 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 1: me out? Guys? What special special the guy? The guy 954 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,920 Speaker 1: can move. The guy's elusive. He's not a tiny receiver. 955 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: He'd like to go up and make the play. That's 956 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 1: all I see a guy to go up and use 957 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: their hands and can't point that ball and run run 958 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: good route. You can catch with your hands. Those are 959 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,160 Speaker 1: two things for me that I love to seeing a receiver. 960 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, you gotta catch the ball with your 961 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:44,560 Speaker 1: body sometimes, but I can't stand body catches. Man, you 962 00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:49,279 Speaker 1: use some hands. That's what the receivers Cede Lamb. The 963 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 1: one thing he doesn't have is a nickname. But that's 964 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 1: kind of because his name is a nickname. Um Calvin. 965 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 1: If there was a Hall of Fame for the NFL nicknames, 966 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:59,359 Speaker 1: it's It's Primetime, It's Broadway Joe, and it's Megatron. It's 967 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:02,160 Speaker 1: it's a first ballot entry. We know the worst of 968 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 1: story a little bit that Roy Williams, your fellow wide receiver, 969 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 1: made it up for you. But did you ever have 970 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: any misgivings about it? You're such a nice, positive guy. 971 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:13,319 Speaker 1: Trent is a dastardly villain and the leader of the Decepticons. 972 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 1: Were you always cool with it? I wasn't at first. 973 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 1: You know, I wanted to be optimists because he's a 974 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:19,719 Speaker 1: good guy. You know I'm a good guy.
