Speaker 3: It's great to see you. Thanks for asking. Greenlight's good.

8
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,960
Speaker 3: It's just, uh, you know, football season, you know, it

9
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,120
Speaker 3: kind of feels like a marathon.

10
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 4: But we barely work for a living, so I'm not

11
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 4: going to complain.

12
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: You know.

13
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 3: It's like when I tell my wife, like on Sunday morning, like,

14
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 3: see you Tuesday morning. I got to work for two days,

15
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,560
Speaker 3: She's like, you watch football.

16
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,840
Speaker 1: We've all gotten away with that skin intently.

17
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 4: We're watching it intently.

18
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 5: So Chris, I'm a big fan of your podcast. And

19
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 5: I believe when we were in Tahoe, I saw bo

20
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 5: Allen in the Tahoe airport, but when I went up

21
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 5: to him, he said it wasn't bo Allen. And I'm wondering,

22
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 5: from your perspective, would bo Allen do that?

23
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 3: No bo Allen would would walk up to you and

24
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 3: tell you he's bo Allen.

25
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 4: You okay, then it must not have been Bowen.

26
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 2: Wait are you saying that you would have to ask?

27
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 2: He just walks up to people and says, hey, I'm

28
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 2: Bo Allen.

29
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I mean I would er, yeah, I would

30
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 3: err on that side of things. Like with him, he

31
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 3: just he's larger than life, dude. He's the butter king,

32
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 3: you know, like he's in a stage of his life

33
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 3: where things are still great and you know, it's cool

34
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 3: to be Bo Allen. He's thirty what four years old? Right,

35
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 3: It's all downhill from here for him.

36
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: So yeah, when did that stage end for you?

37
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 3: I mean, like maybe year five of podcasting.

38
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I still view you as cool.

39
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 2: Like I was saying right before we started recording, Chris

40
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 2: Long is one of the coolest motherfuckers I know. And

41
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 2: you're like, well, you think I'm a lot cooler than

42
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 2: I actually am.

43
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: You don't know, I.

44
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 3: Said, but I said, I wish I was as cool

45
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 3: as you think I am. And no, I mean I'm

46
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 3: forty dude. I'm just you know, I'm a fucking dad.

47
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 3: You know, it's the coolest thing in the world being

48
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 3: a dad. Don't get me wrong, Yes, but the world

49
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 3: is definitely passing us.

50
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 4: By, right, And that's perfectly fine.

51
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 3: Like we were just talking about college football, me and

52
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 3: Taylor because he's a guitar hill and it's like, you know,

53
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 3: this week we got a game coming up, and I'm like,

54
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 3: I love Virginia, but I got to be honest, like

55
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 3: college football is kind of passing me by. Our team

56
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 3: costs twenty million dollars, like keep up with the players.

57
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,119
Speaker 3: My kids are walking around saying shit like six seven.

58
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 3: I have no idea what that means. I'm out.

59
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 4: I'm aged out, bro.

60
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: What's more difficult? What was?

61
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: What's been more difficult your NFL career, Playing in the

62
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 2: NFL or being a dad?

63
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 4: Being a dad's easy. I really do think being a

64
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 4: dad is.

65
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 3: No, It's not without its challenges, of course, and you know,

66
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 3: chief among them is being.

67
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 4: A dad to three. But being a dad is like

68
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 4: it almost feels like I was born to be dad.

69
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 3: You know, I'm not trying to toot my own horn or anything,

70
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 3: but I'm sure there's other dads that feel that way.

71
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,799
Speaker 3: They're like one of my buddies just had a kid,

72
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 3: and I forgot I said this to him, but I

73
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 3: guess I had told him. It's like it's like a

74
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 3: missing piece, you know when when all of a sudden

75
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 3: you you think, hey, you're you got to figure it out,

76
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 3: like you're living for the right reasons everything, and all

77
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 3: of a sudden your kid shows up and you're like, oh,

78
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 3: this is what I was here to do. So, you know, honestly,

79
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 3: the hardest part is just finding the balance professionally because

80
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 3: I am a bit of a workaholic, and it is

81
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 3: football season and it takes me like a month. I usually, like,

82
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 3: I don't know about you, but like the first month

83
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 3: of the season, I kind of break myself working. You're like,

84
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 3: you can't see everything, you can't work fourteen hours a day, break,

85
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 3: spend some time. I think it's the balance that's the

86
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 3: hardest part.

87
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 2: And it's funny because as you, like, you know, you

88
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 2: think back to like you listening to sports radio growing up,

89
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 2: or listening to some of these podcasts, you think, these

90
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 2: guys watch all the games.

91
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: I'm here to tell you they don't. Why because they can't.

92
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 2: That's insane. That would be an insane lifestyle to have.

93
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 2: For as long I've lived that.

94
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 3: Way, I have and like usually by the end of

95
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 3: the week, I've watched in some capacity every game, not

96
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 3: not you know, like so Sunday, you know, I'm watching

97
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 3: one game at a time, maybe with with with a

98
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 3: second and third on the side TVs that maybe you

99
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 3: got a total or something in those games. But sure,

100
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 3: you know we got kind of a mad dash by

101
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 3: our Tuesday livestream to watch. You know, I'm probably watching

102
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 3: six or eight games by that point, whether it's an

103
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 3: All twenty two or or the condensed if I'm being

104
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 3: really lazy because the amount of time. So yeah, but that lesson.

105
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 3: I mean, like even in today's media landscape where you

106
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 3: look around and you assume you're like that guy watches everything,

107
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 3: and chances are he doesn't.

108
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 4: He or she doesn't because the first person that comes

109
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 4: to mind.

110
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 3: Is Mina and and she's a she, and she probably

111
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 3: does watch everything.

112
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 2: No, she does, right, she's one of the few who

113
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 2: actually does. Yes, one, uh, I'm one of the few

114
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 2: who doesn't what any of it. Taylor would take your

115
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 2: kind of laziness just watching the YouTube DEAs version, he

116
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 2: would take.

117
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 3: No, they make it easy on NFL dot com now,

118
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 3: where it's like, hey, they give you an you know,

119
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 3: you get your condensed, you get your All twenty two,

120
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 3: you get you know, so even people that don't know

121
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 3: what they're looking at now can watch everything.

122
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 5: Right, Chris, Yeah, My biggest problem with Stu is we

123
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 5: get to a game and I asked his opinion and

124
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 5: he was like, fell asleep for it. I'm like, well,

125
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 5: I mean, buddy, just just just give me something forties rough.

126
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 1: I'm fifties.

127
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 3: Last night, Stu, did you watch the end of the

128
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 3: did you did you hang in there through uh, the

129
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 3: twelve rounds of that that Houston and Seattle fight.

130
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: No, I was sleeping by the end of the first quarter.

131
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm an addict.

132
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 4: It's a problem.

133
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, but you're on the West coast, it's easier

134
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: for you.

135
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,039
Speaker 4: No, I'm not. I'm on the East coast.

136
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 1: Oh you're on the East Coast. Now, I thought you

137
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: were at in California.

138
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 3: No, I was, honestly, And we have this cover a lot, bro,

139
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:03,840
Speaker 3: you know, like I live in Virginia where, you know,

140
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 3: like everybody else, the games start at one in four

141
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 3: fifteen or whatever. But I think, like I think, I

142
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 3: think West Coast people have the best setup for They've

143
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 3: got it down for watching games. You wake up in

144
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 3: the morning, there's a game on, and then you know

145
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 3: by the time Sunday football's on, it's like the evening

146
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 3: and you're and you're eating dinner. Maybe, but yeah, it's

147
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 3: the NFL is out of control with the start times.

148
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 4: I think I.

149
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 3: Think Monday night football should be like should be like

150
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 3: seven o'clock.

151
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: Agreed, yes, yes, but.

152
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 2: You're right about the West coast, they've got it dead.

153
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 2: It's ten, it's one, it's four, and you're done.

154
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: You know.

155
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 4: Do you like the international game thing?

156
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 1: I do not, do you. I cannot stand.

157
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 2: I don't know what it is about London or just

158
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 2: playing in any of these European cities. I don't mind

159
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 2: the nine thirty start, it's it's it's playing in Europe.

160
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 1: That kind of sucks the fun out of it for me.

161
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 4: I think it's I kind of like it because.

162
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 3: You wake up and you get any the more standalone

163
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 3: games we get, the better. In my opinion, maybe that's

164
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 3: a professional kink, because like I can actually watch the

165
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 3: frigging game right, whereas like when you're trying to download

166
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 3: everything in the one pm, you're you know, and that's

167
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 3: another thing. They put like eight games in the one

168
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 3: PM and two in the four pm, like break it

169
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 3: up a little bit.

170
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: Let's even it out.

171
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, even and out and just to get one

172
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 3: in the morning if it's God forbid, it's a good game,

173
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 3: which we seem like we can't get in that spot,

174
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 3: but it can actually be fun to wake up and

175
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 3: watch with the kids and that sort of thing before

176
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 3: I retreat to my man cave.

177
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: Right.

178
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 2: What's that man cave look like, by the way, I

179
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 2: mean I'm sitting at it.

180
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 3: I got my little desk here and that's got a

181
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 3: table over there, and like three TVs of Swivel TV here.

182
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 3: I got a little like a little riser with a couch.

183
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 3: So you know, if we have like five six people over,

184
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 3: we can do that. But uh, you know, this is

185
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 3: kind of the still got you would like this spot.

186
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 3: This is kind of the smoke watch football, Yeah, play

187
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 3: and pretend like I'm working sometimes all that my entire house.

188
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: Yes, I mean the kids are out, so I'm good.

189
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:18,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, dude, you got a babe. Family. Family, family, Chris.

190
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 5: I'm watching the the Vikings Eagles game, and the Vikings

191
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 5: are trying to defend the push push by just laying

192
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 5: somebody down, and I'm wondering, from your perspective as a

193
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 5: former defensive player. If you're in the meeting and your

194
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 5: defensive coordinator comes up to you, it's like, Hey, you're

195
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 5: gonna be the guy laying down. What are you telling him?

196
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 3: WHOA That's why it was this guy, Tyler Baddie or Bidet,

197
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 3: however you say his last name, he's a rookie.

198
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 4: As soon as I saw two little ankles sticking out

199
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:47,839
Speaker 4: of that pile, I.

200
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 3: Was like, that's a rookie or somebody who doesn't have

201
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 3: a lot of job security, because that is not like

202
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 3: a that's a draw straws type of thing. And it's

203
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 3: funny because I tweeted about it and I was like,

204
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 3: that guy must be pissed to be under like that

205
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 3: two thousand pounds trash compactor. And one guy tweeted at

206
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 3: me he was like, when I coached Tyler in high school,

207
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 3: he's the perfect guy for the job. I'm like, what,

208
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 3: he's a glutton for punishment. You just be like the

209
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 3: toughest guy of all time. So yeah, that's a that's

210
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 3: a bold strategy. It's a tough play to stop, obviously,

211
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 3: and it's one of the things, it's one of the

212
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 3: few things in sports that it's really hard to figure

213
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 3: out like why they are so much more proficient at

214
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 3: it than everybody else through you know, Jason retiring, Jurgens,

215
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 3: Becton's gone, they can still do it, you know. And

216
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 3: I start to wonder if it's the damn rugby player

217
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 3: left tackle because a lot of times they actually run it.

218
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 3: People think about it like an A gap play. It's

219
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 3: kind of like a B gap play, and so it's

220
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 3: a really interesting play. I wish they'd officiated correctly. I've

221
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 3: said this on my podcast and Eagles fans got really

222
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 3: pissed to me.

223
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 4: I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa.

224
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 3: You know what they do? We got to you know,

225
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 3: we're good enough at it. We don't need the jump start.

226
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 4: You know.

227
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, what do you make of Philly fans? By

228
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 2: the way, I'm tired of them because, like, listen, this team.

229
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: It's like, you won.

230
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 2: A super Bowl. You've been to two and three years.

231
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 2: You should have won the other one. Both of them

232
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 2: would have been against Patrick Mahomes. One of them was

233
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 2: against Patrick Mahomes. And yet Eagle fans are still not

234
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 2: happy with Jalen Hurts and they still want to fire

235
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 2: Nick Siriotti. Let get the fuck out of here.

236
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 4: Chris, Yeah, I wouldn't listen.

237
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 2: I'll say, you don't have to say, and I know

238
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 2: you play there. You want to super say this.

239
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 3: Every fan base in the NFL has a has a

240
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 3: main character syndrome problem. It's honestly, and nobody's immune to it.

241
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,959
Speaker 3: And I've said this for seven years, Eagles fans. One

242
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 3: of the things I love the most about playing in Philly,

243
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 3: like really honestly, the thing I love the most about

244
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,439
Speaker 3: it was playing for those fans. So I love the place.

245
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 3: The place changed my life, the people changed my life.

246
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,839
Speaker 3: But you know, if we're going to judge people based

247
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 3: on on fan bases, based on like the timelines, every

248
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 3: fan base's timeline is cringe as af as the kids

249
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 3: would say. Now, it like everybody the NFL's against your

250
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 3: team and only your team. The NFL officials look at

251
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 3: the Lions fans and I'm not trying to you know,

252
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 3: Eagles fans. Now, I'm bringing up Lions fans. But a

253
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 3: week ago, we never get calls the NFL wants us

254
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 3: to lose. Last night, yes, you know, it proved the

255
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 3: point I'm making over and over again, which is like

256
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,079
Speaker 3: it is not personal if you wait long enough your

257
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 3: team will get some calls, but along the way, the

258
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 3: goal is to not make it look like your fan

259
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 3: base has main character syndrome. And honestly, like when it

260
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 3: comes to Eagles fans being like up and down on

261
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 3: the quarterback of the coach or the OC, I don't

262
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 3: blame them sometimes because of how sporadic the Eagles have

263
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 3: played this year. There they are. They can make it

264
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 3: look easy sometimes they can, but then like every single

265
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 3: one of their games, there's a dip and whether it's, hey,

266
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 3: the second half of the Denver game, or the first

267
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 3: half of the LA game, or the the second quarter

268
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 3: of the Minnesota game. You know, like there are just

269
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,719
Speaker 3: these lulls. So they're looking for a little bit more

270
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 3: settled play. I'm glad they're being realistic because the thing

271
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 3: that got me was like, as an analyst, now I've

272
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 3: been out of the league for seven eight years. To

273
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 3: be honest with you, stud my least favorite thing at

274
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 3: times is having to talk about the Eagles because people

275
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 3: expect you to be like local radio, right, and you know,

276
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 3: when things are good, you've gotta you've gotta you've gotta

277
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 3: fall online, and when things are bad, you can't be

278
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 3: positive and you know, at the beginning of the year,

279
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 3: I had my doubts about this team being last year's team.

280
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 3: What we've seen through six seven weeks that they have

281
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 3: rejoined the pack a little bit. They still have an

282
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 3: opportunity to win the whole damn thing, but it ain't

283
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 3: going to be as easy as last year. And you know,

284
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 3: I took some flak for saying that early, and now

285
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 3: it's flipped the other way, where if I'm positive about

286
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 3: the quarterback, you know, on a week to week basis

287
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 3: or the oc hey, I.

288
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 4: Saw some improvement, they got to pitchforks out too.

289
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 3: So you can't win in the media, especially if you

290
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 3: played for a team because fans want you to kind

291
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 3: of be a homer first.

292
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 2: Of course, Yes, but Chris, can I ask you a

293
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 2: serious question. What's not to like about that quarterback? What's

294
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 2: not to like about Jens Art?

295
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 3: Yes, he absolutely wins, and I've defended him at a

296
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 3: lot of different turns in the road. I think the

297
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 3: enemy of Jalen Hurts is the modern day discourse, where

298
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 3: you know, in today's media landscape, we talk so much,

299
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 3: we run out of things to say, so we've got

300
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 3: to do top fives every every week, or you know

301
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 3: this performance this week means X for his legacy, or

302
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:00,839
Speaker 3: you know, like what are we talking it's week four,

303
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 3: it's week five. My take on Jalen Hurts has always.

304
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 4: Been this winner. It's the first thing that comes to mind.

305
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 3: He's got incredible mental fortitude, toughness. He throws as beautiful

306
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 3: a deep ball as anybody in the NFL. Stay outside

307
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 3: the numbers that was on display the other day, I

308
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 3: think sometimes he takes.

309
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 4: A little long.

310
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 3: You know, you looked at the other day and it's

311
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 3: a real blessing to have those two tackles, because you know,

312
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 3: they played Aj Brown that goes for thirty seven yards

313
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 3: is five seconds in the pocket. They converted two third

314
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 3: and very longs that were combined fifteen seconds in the pocket.

315
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 3: You know, sometimes I think they need to speed up

316
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 3: a little bit. I could have some gripes about, you know,

317
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 3: how he might attack the middle of the field at

318
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 3: the intermediate level, but he's also had to go through

319
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 3: five seven coordinators in his young career. It feels like

320
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 3: and I can relate to that not as being a

321
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 3: player of his caliber or being an offensive player or

322
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 3: a quarterback, but you know, as a young player.

323
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 4: We went through probably.

324
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 3: Four or five coaches my first six years and until

325
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 3: it was like Jeff Fisher and Saint Louis and coordinators

326
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 3: changing that sort of thing. So I really I tip

327
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 3: my cap to him for his toughness, you know, his

328
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 3: leadership and his ability to win. He doesn't have to

329
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 3: be a top five quarterback, nor is he right, And

330
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 3: that's the problem in today's in today's media and social

331
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 3: media landscape is like if I were to say I

332
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 3: love Jalen Hurts, but I don't put him in the

333
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 3: top five, some people want my head on a spike, right,

334
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 3: exactly right, Yes, And that's and that's okay because I

335
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 3: don't like.

336
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 4: I watched the games and the guy's a winner.

337
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 3: He's plenty good enough, but he's not the guy that,

338
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 3: if everything's terrible around him, is going to elevate his team.

339
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 4: Like say, I don't know.

340
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 2: A Josh Allen Right, Mahomes, Alan Burrow. He's not one

341
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 2: of those guys right now.

342
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 3: And I'm careful about saying Mahomes because Mahomes quite literally

343
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 3: just had to fall apart around him and looked human, right,

344
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 3: which is interesting. Yes, I think Josh, I think Lamar

345
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 3: I think some of those guys, well, they're not better

346
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 3: than Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes is the goat probably of this generation.

347
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 3: I'm leaving Brady out of it. Those guys have had

348
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 3: to make chicken soup with chicken shit a little bit

349
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 3: more over the course of their career.

350
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 1: Right.

351
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought up the leadership part of Jalen

352
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 2: Hurts because there appears to be a lack of leadership

353
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 2: and accountability down here in Miami.

354
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: And I know you were a big leadership guy. You

355
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: were a leader all.

356
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 2: Most of the teams you played on christ and A

357
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 2: legedly you're a leader though, and a great leader, and

358
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 2: you care about that stuff, right, and you know it

359
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 2: when you see it. So what do you see when

360
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 2: you look down here in Miami with two of his

361
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 2: comments after the game a couple of weeks ago, and

362
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 2: that Mike mc daniel, Well, still I'm.

363
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 3: Glad that, Like it's been some years, but I'm not

364
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 3: going to have to get that Dolphins tattoo that we

365
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 3: were talking about on Dan.

366
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: The TATTOOA yeah, yeah, a tattoo.

367
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 3: I got hit in the head a lot, but I

368
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,640
Speaker 3: got a little elephant in me, so I remember everything.

369
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 2: Yes, I was at Augusta when I said that. I

370
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 2: remember that, Yeah you were, I was, yeah, look at

371
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 2: us both.

372
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 4: The pot's not killing too many brand cells on it.

373
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,919
Speaker 3: The fucking the thing about Tua is this, like I

374
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 3: thought this team had an open window for a couple

375
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 3: of years, and I thought he held him back in

376
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 3: some spots and it was hard to see because they

377
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 3: were dominant against the teams that just couldn't hang with

378
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 3: them from a personnel standpoint. And I think Mike McDaniel

379
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 3: is a scheme dude. I think he knows football. I

380
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 3: think he's a good football coach. I've always been a

381
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 3: fan of his and I always took that context into

382
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 3: consideration and talking about who I think he is. And

383
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 3: I thought, I speculated that privately he probably would say, Hey,

384
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 3: I wish I had like any number of cornerbacks over

385
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 3: this guy. And I've never had a problem with to

386
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 3: it personally. In fact, before the whole Tuanon thing, I

387
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,159
Speaker 3: used to root for the guy. I just thought he

388
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 3: was admitted and I happen to be a big beflow fan.

389
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,199
Speaker 3: I still am. And it's amazing that you know we

390
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,119
Speaker 3: do a one to eighty on what kind of coach

391
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:11,479
Speaker 3: that Miami wants or imagines, if you're to believe what

392
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,400
Speaker 3: you're hearing in reports is what they want, like an authoritarian,

393
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 3: like a guy that defies court orders or something.

394
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 1: And so and so.

395
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 3: I'm just it's just you look at Miami and you

396
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 3: say they got to blow it up because I think

397
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 3: the quarterback is going to leave you wanting more. I

398
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 3: think people are finally seeing that. And I think Mike

399
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 3: it's just run its course. And I'm always a big

400
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 3: fan of him. But I said this on my show

401
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 3: the other day. I don't care what's what Tua said

402
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 3: at the podium.

403
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 4: It was ill advised. It wasn't leadership, it was it was.

404
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 3: Foolish to throw guys under the bus like that.

405
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 4: There might be and it's easy to see there's a

406
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:55,880
Speaker 4: big cultural issue down there.

407
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,679
Speaker 3: But you don't air that dirty laundry out what you

408
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 3: don't don't do as the head coach. And I don't

409
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,199
Speaker 3: care if you're the head coach for two three more days,

410
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 3: and I don't care how bad you want to be

411
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 3: in San Francisco, stat Like, I don't care how hey

412
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 3: fire me Stephen Ross.

413
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 4: You don't do what he.

414
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 3: Did yesterday, which is say, hey, it's to his team

415
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 3: this week.

416
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 4: You know we're going to try to do is not

417
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 4: throw ten picks. Like I know.

418
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,120
Speaker 3: Part of that is his stick and his dry sense

419
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 3: of humor, and he probably, like I said, would rather

420
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 3: be anywhere in the world but Miami right now. But

421
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,159
Speaker 3: I'm saying this is somebody who believes in Mike McDaniel

422
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 3: and is a fan of him and understands why he's

423
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 3: about to get fired.

424
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 4: And part of it is the quarterback.

425
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 3: You're going to have to lead a room full of

426
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 3: men at some point again, if you want to be

427
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 3: a head coach and you might get that opportunity again,

428
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 3: don't say some shit now that's going to fuck up

429
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 3: that opportunity for you. Because everybody's watching the way you

430
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 3: handle this situation.

431
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 4: Everybody knows the deal. Mike, Yes, nobody knows.

432
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 3: It's not all your fault, right, But if you start

433
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 3: going back and forth with the quarterback who's acting childish.

434
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 4: It's the whole you know, wise man said, don't argue

435
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 4: with fools, right, because you can't tell who's who. And

436
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 4: I'm forty years old.

437
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 3: I kind of think of myself as an immature kid

438
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 3: sometimes like I do think sometimes that I wouldn't give

439
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 3: myself advice to do, like argue with somebody online or

440
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 3: say something a little bit out of character. Sure in

441
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 3: a public space. Mike's like my age. I don't know

442
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 3: how old Mike.

443
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: Is right, run around forty, I believe, Yeah.

444
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 3: Dude, Like it's okay to have a little bit of

445
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,880
Speaker 3: an immature streak, But that to me is like you're

446
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 3: trying to lead, you know, a building full of men.

447
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 4: You kind of have to be better than that. That

448
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 4: was the one thing where I'm like, Mike, don't mess

449
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,439
Speaker 4: up the next opportunity, right. I think he can coach.

450
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 2: I think he can coach as well. He has coached,

451
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 2: and he did a very good job. This was a

452
00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 2: talk of the NFL just a couple of years ago.

453
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 2: Here's the prob I agree with everything you just said.

454
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,360
Speaker 2: You cannot come in on the front end as well

455
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 2: if you're Mike McDaniel and say the reason I came

456
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 2: here is because two is the most accurate panzer I've

457
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 2: ever seen, and.

458
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 1: Then bail, I'm the guy.

459
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 2: The second it gets difficult, like you can't do that, Chris.

460
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 3: Well, it's not the second it gets difficult that's the

461
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 3: point I'm making. And you know I agree, like, and

462
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 3: this is the problem when you put too much dip

463
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 3: on the chip and say things you don't mean yes,

464
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 3: which is like and he would never say I was

465
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 3: lying right thought that, But I think like in an

466
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 3: NFL locker room, like guys know like Tyreek Hill knows

467
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 3: like he can't get me the ball the way Mahomes

468
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 3: got me the ball, right, okay, And I don't care

469
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 3: what stats should throw at me.

470
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 4: Watch the damn tape.

471
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 3: And it's the same thing with with Mike, where it's

472
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 3: like you know, of course you're gonna I think too

473
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,919
Speaker 3: his confidence was and maybe this is where b flow

474
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 3: went sideways. Is like I believe in building guys up, Okay,

475
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 3: Like as a leader, that's what I do. Like when

476
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 3: I was a player, if there was a rookie, like, yeah,

477
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,399
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be honest with you, brutally honest with you.

478
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 3: I might even yell at you about something, but like

479
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 3: more often than not, I'm looking for the guy that

480
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,679
Speaker 3: needs a boost, and I'm trying to positively reinforce the

481
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 3: good things that person's doing.

482
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 1: Rob But Chris, that takes time.

483
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 2: That means you have to get to know each individual player,

484
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 2: which many coaches do not too.

485
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,199
Speaker 1: I'm glad that you do that that you know.

486
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 3: But no question, but like that's what Mike McDaniel is

487
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,879
Speaker 3: probably doing that situation, like I'm gonna hype this guy up.

488
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 4: He's got a confidence issue.

489
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 3: I'm going to talk about all the good things he's doing,

490
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 3: and one of the things he is really he is

491
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 3: very accurate underneath. If it's seven on seven, and it

492
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 3: was for a second there because of all the guys

493
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 3: that got open quickly in that offense, the run game

494
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 3: they had, the way they stressed edges. But you know,

495
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,360
Speaker 3: as you can see over time, like when the Rubbers

496
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 3: met the road and they played really good teams, or

497
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 3: as the talent has dropped off a little bit and

498
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 3: he's had to overcome some of these things that other

499
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 3: quarterbacks do have to overcome. The real hymns kind of

500
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 3: come out. And so I don't think that he one

501
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 3: hundred percent meant that. I'm not trying to, you know,

502
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 3: like put thoughts in his head or words of his mouth,

503
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,959
Speaker 3: but just if I had to guess and it's not,

504
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 3: this isn't the second thing's got tough in my opinion.

505
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 3: In my opinion, but there's been a frustration that building

506
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 3: for a couple of years that they haven't been able

507
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 3: to beat the good teams.

508
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:21,640
Speaker 1: No, that's fair.

509
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 2: Are you surprised by the way since Taylor is here Carolina,

510
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 2: he wants to get rid of Belichick already? You played

511
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 2: for Bill Belichick, win a super Bowl with Bill Belichick?

512
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 2: Are you surprised it's gone this poorly on and off

513
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 2: the field for Belichick and Carolina?

514
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 4: Well, I guess I'm not surprised because.

515
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 3: You know, we've seen it time and time again, coaches

516
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,439
Speaker 3: coaching at one level at a really high level, not

517
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 3: being able to replicate that success at the next level,

518
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:50,119
Speaker 3: or vice versa. You know, he might just end up

519
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,360
Speaker 3: being like the Nick Saban of you know Nick Saban,

520
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 3: I mean as a Miami topic. Wasn't a great pro coach,

521
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 3: was it? You know? But he's he's one of the

522
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 3: if not the greatest college coach of all time. I mean,

523
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 3: I'm not a college football historian, you know, because I don't.

524
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: Watch hate college football.

525
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 3: It's minor league football. It's like you watch for the chaos.

526
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 3: Anybody that tells you it's good football. It's full of shit.

527
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,679
Speaker 3: Now you don't even know what anybody's name is.

528
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:18,679
Speaker 4: So much of.

529
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 3: Kids that I'm glad they're making more money than me,

530
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 3: but they are.

531
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 1: You would have made a killing a college log.

532
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,479
Speaker 3: It's all good, everything works out, but the point is is, like,

533
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,200
Speaker 3: you know, for Bill to enter a totally different landscape

534
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 3: that is changing under your feet, and now you're trying

535
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 3: to be a pro team. You're trying to do things

536
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 3: like the pros like, and you got Lombardi running the

537
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 3: thing down there.

538
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 4: It's just it just hasn't worked out. And I don't

539
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 4: know why because I don't watch the games.

540
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 3: But it doesn't surprise me that it hasn't worked out,

541
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 3: just this spectacularly.

542
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 4: I guess I didn't see right of first. I don't

543
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 4: want to call you out.

544
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 5: I love you, I love your analysis. But for somebody

545
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 5: who's saying they don't really care about college football, you

546
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 5: did rush the field.

547
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 4: Two weeks after the Florida.

548
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 5: State game, there was a lot of hooton colors.

549
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 3: But that's the privilege I have, is like I live

550
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 3: five minutes from the stadium, so I got on TV

551
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 3: and like, hey, if Florida State comes to town, I

552
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 3: can go to the stadium. If we beat Florida State,

553
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 3: I can rush to the field and then two days

554
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 3: later I can be like, who.

555
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 4: Do we play this week? That's kind of where I am. Yes,

556
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:37,360
Speaker 4: part of that is because.

557
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 3: We didn't beat Tech for like twenty years, and it

558
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 3: just it's it's zap, It's zap me, you know. But

559
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 3: I think a lot of it is, honestly, like just

560
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 3: the change in landscape. And that's not that I don't

561
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 3: love the fact these guys are getting the bag. Whenever

562
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 3: I'm talking to somebody and they're like, yeah, college football,

563
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 3: but you know these kids these days, man, I'm like come,

564
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 3: I'm like, come on, bro, like like you're that guy.

565
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 4: But I'm like, actually, I don't like it, just because

566
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 4: I can't keep up with the shit.

567
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 3: Like I'm glad they're getting the bag and I'm glad

568
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 3: they have the The one thing I don't love about

569
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 3: college football is this, and this is where I start

570
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 3: yelling at a cloud, is the transfer portal thing kind

571
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 3: of sucks. I do think there has to be some

572
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 3: commitment to your team, and I guess I suppose it's

573
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 3: a year commitment or whatever it is, but I think

574
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 3: they could for a lot of reason. I think Number one,

575
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 3: it's not a great Most of these guys aren't going pro.

576
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 3: It's not a great message that like when shit gets hard,

577
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:37,640
Speaker 3: you can just change your you can just.

578
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 4: Up and leave.

579
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:39,879
Speaker 1: You find a better situation, right.

580
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 3: Well, and you know what in professional world now there's

581
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 3: some of that, you know where people are just like, hey,

582
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 3: well I don't like it here, I'm just gonna I'm

583
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 3: just gonna leave, like I'm not going to stick it out,

584
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 3: like I'm not going to work through it or whatever

585
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 3: it is. The other thing is this it kind of

586
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,679
Speaker 3: robs players of like a place to go home to.

587
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 3: You can kind of choose which Brendan Arms came back

588
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 3: the other night and he played at NC State and

589
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 3: you know, transferred around a little bit. But like guys

590
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 3: that play at four schools, like who are your brothers?

591
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 1: Man?

592
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 3: Like who do you go back? And and where do

593
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 3: you watch a game? Like you know, where where do

594
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 3: you get welcomed home? Like that's a very superficial thing.

595
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 3: It doesn't pay the bills. And I know I'm lucky.

596
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 3: I made a lot of money playing pro football, but

597
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 3: that does suck for those guys a little bit.

598
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 2: The only thing I like about the portal. I agree

599
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,439
Speaker 2: with everything you just said. Is for the quarterback position.

600
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 2: For a guy like Kyle McCord who was at Ohio State,

601
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 2: played well but was going to be benched in years past,

602
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 2: that guy has to sit there.

603
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 1: He's never going to get drafted.

604
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 2: He doesn't get any more opportunities at Ohio State and

605
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 2: he's just stuck being the Ohio State back. But at

606
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 2: least now we can go to Syracuse lead the NCAA

607
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,479
Speaker 2: and passing get drafted by the Eagles, will be their backup.

608
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 1: You know, well.

609
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,959
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe that you know, and nobody would go for

610
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:51,640
Speaker 3: this position.

611
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 4: Players would be like, well, rules for thee but not

612
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 4: for me.

613
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,199
Speaker 3: But like maybe there's a different, you know, distinction for

614
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 3: a quarterback because only one quarterback can play, right, And

615
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 3: you know, like we've all been, I wanted to transfer

616
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 3: in college, Like I was a position player and I

617
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 3: wanted to quit. I wanted to transfer. I wanted to

618
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 3: go somewhere else. I want to go because the three

619
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 3: four was harder. You know, I was playing out a

620
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 3: position or whatever. But like I had to stick it up,

621
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 3: stick it out because I didn't want to sit out

622
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 3: for you, right, and you know it worked out for me.

623
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 3: That's just an anecdote. I do think for position players,

624
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 3: the the the escape patch is too easy to pull.

625
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 4: Chris we mentioned Belichick and the Patriots.

626
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 5: I'm wondering, does it feel a bit unfair that the

627
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 5: Patriots already have another franchise quarterback this Jeff does after Brady.

628
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 4: Yeah.

629
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, to a Jet fan, I'm sure it does. Man

630
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 3: like that position has eluded that organization. But yeah, and

631
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 3: listen the Pats. That was such a good quarterback class.

632
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 3: It's almost like blind luck to have to pick in

633
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 3: that class us and you know, like whether he's going

634
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 3: to be the best one or not. Like, you know,

635
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 3: we take a snapshot at any point last year, we

636
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 3: take a snap shot in the middle of the season,

637
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 3: We're saying Jayden Daniel is the best one. I still

638
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 3: think he's got you know, the sky's the limit for him.

639
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 3: But then you look at him this year. Everybody saying,

640
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 3: well he's this year CJ. Stroud, And you watch CJ.

641
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 3: Shroud play last night and you're like, geez, yeah, I

642
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 3: almost want to give c. J. Stroud an incomplete grade

643
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 3: because this shit is so fucked up around him. But

644
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 3: I think Drake has a shot to be the best

645
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 3: one in the class. Like you know, it's it's not

646
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 3: a hot take at this point, like this would be

647
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 3: the prevailing take, you know, and people in Chicago think

648
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 3: it's Caleb and people in New England I think it.

649
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 3: Then it becomes all about how do you best support

650
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 3: the quarterback because we're kind of cutting hairs here, and

651
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 3: as we've learned time and time again in the NFL,

652
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 3: I don't know how many times we've got to get

653
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 3: hit in the face with this thing to realize it's

654
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 3: true when you draft a quarterback high. For the most part,

655
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 3: that quarterback is draft high because they have talents that

656
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 3: differentiate them. And that's why you see a Sam Darnold

657
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 3: or Daniel Jones or a Baker Mayfield getting left for

658
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 3: dead and then reviving their careers in situations that are

659
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 3: built well around them. I mean, look at how Patrick

660
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 3: Mahomes look. Look at the delta between Mahomes the last

661
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 3: two years and the way he's looked the last month

662
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 3: of the season with a full deck.

663
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: I mean, just a quarterback, yes, best.

664
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 3: And so I just say this, like from here on out,

665
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 3: whether it's New England, whether it's Washington, whether it's Chicago

666
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 3: or Denver for that matter, or Atlanta. Right, how do

667
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 3: you build and support around the quarterback that's going to

668
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 3: be the deciding factor on who's the best one. I

669
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 3: think Drake May's fantastic. I think the schedule's been soft.

670
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 3: The Bills win was big, but the Atlanta beat the

671
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 3: Bills too. I think the Bills are going through a

672
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 3: little bit of a funk right now. Pats are for

673
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 3: real because the culture that Vrabel has instilled because hit

674
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 3: Josh Allen when they played Buffalo. The quarterback is going

675
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 3: to help for years to come. But the culture and

676
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 3: the QB that's why Josh McDaniel's probably sitting there and saying, Dude,

677
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 3: if I ever got another chance to coach somewhere else,

678
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 3: I wouldn't. I'd probably just stay here with Drake mayhon

679
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 3: with Rabel thing again.

680
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 1: Yes, we'll get you out of here in just a second.

681
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 1: We appreciate the time.

682
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 2: A better feeling for you witting that first Super Bowl

683
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 2: in New England or witting the second Super Bowl in Philadelphia,

684
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 2: beating the team that you played for in New England.

685
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 3: It was the first one was like a relief for

686
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 3: me because coming from where I came from in football,

687
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 3: like I never won.

688
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 4: I don't think I ever won more than seven games

689
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 4: in a season.

690
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 3: And quite frankly, like when the Rams cut me, I

691
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 3: had gotten hurt and they cut me, and I was

692
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 3: I kind of hit rock bottom where I just didn't

693
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 3: want to play football anymore. So, you know, for Bill

694
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 3: to call me and be like, hey, come along for

695
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 3: this ride to win and be down twenty eight to three,

696
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 3: I remember sitting there with Richid told me for the

697
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 3: game like.

698
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 4: Hey, bro, I just want to warn you about something.

699
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 3: This is gonna be the best day of your life

700
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 3: if we win, but if we lose, you're gonna wish

701
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 3: we went one in fifteen.

702
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 4: You're gonna wish it's in Saint Louis.

703
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 3: And I was like, yeah, whatever. You know, we're down

704
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 3: twenty one to whatever at the half, twenty eight three,

705
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 3: and I'm sitting there at the half and the two

706
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,479
Speaker 3: teams that it came down to for me in free agency,

707
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 3: we're Atlanta and New England, swear to you. And I

708
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 3: didn't want to play in Atlanta because dan Quin wanted

709
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,479
Speaker 3: me to be his Michael Bennett, which meant I had

710
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 3: to plan a four I and I didn't like the

711
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 3: traffic down there, and my bass goes to play in

712
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 3: New England where they make me a three technique and

713
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 3: the traffic's even worse, right, And I'm sitting there and

714
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 3: I'm like, man, we are about to lose this damn team.

715
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 4: I can't believe I did this.

716
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 3: The relief that came over me, like thirty minutes later,

717
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 3: just think, hey, my career is not wasted, you know, Like,

718
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 3: but Philly like a party.

719
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 4: It just Philly was such a movie man.

720
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 3: It was like you already had the they I already had,

721
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 3: you know, house money.

722
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: To play with one you checked off that box correct.

723
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, so this was just gonna be like a fuck it,

724
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 3: let's see how this goes.

725
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 4: Man like. And to leave New England and free agency,

726
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 4: all these Pats fans were like, you're washed, like, no

727
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 4: one leaves us like you ingrate, which is a fan.

728
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 1: I'm not certain with fan bases work by the way,

729
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 1: Boston or Philly.

730
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 3: But Philly's got the best fan base, bro, I know.

731
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 3: But the Pats fans, you know, at that point, there's

732
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 3: a lot of them that are kind of like I

733
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 3: remember I showed up to New England and was that

734
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 3: like a meet the team day where like people pay

735
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 3: a lot of money to come, like walk through the

736
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 3: stadium and see us in our jerseys, walks up with

737
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 3: like his kids and he's like, welcome to New England.

738
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 4: You should be very happy to be here.

739
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 3: And I was like, oh, so there was a little

740
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 3: bit of that, and then when I left, it was

741
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 3: kind of like, you're a dumb ass, right, So yeah,

742
00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 3: it felt good to beat him.

743
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 4: It felt good beat him.

744
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 3: It felt scary as hell getting ready for the game

745
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 3: because I was kind of like, man, if we lose

746
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 3: this game, not only are they going to put a

747
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 3: crying Jordan meme on the dog mask, me and La

748
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 3: Garrett are going to be like public enemy number one.

749
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,760
Speaker 4: Like so it was so the first one was a relief.

750
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:18,360
Speaker 4: The second one was just pure joy.

751
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 3: And you know the amount of Eagles fans that come

752
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 3: up and say, like, to this day, you know, my

753
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 3: dad passed away, but that he said he could die

754
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 3: happy because y'all want a Super.

755
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 4: Bowl, bro, that means a lot. That's great, and I

756
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:32,879
Speaker 4: don't give a ship. Like here's the thing.

757
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,440
Speaker 3: I'm I'm glad not to be the only team in Philly.

758
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 3: I'm glad because we got too much credit. We were

759
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 3: a really good team. We got hot. The last year

760
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,880
Speaker 3: was a fucking juggernaut. It's pretty cool to be a

761
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 3: part of a fraternity with some guys that you didn't

762
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 3: play with, like Saquon and those guys that it's cool

763
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 3: to say, you know, get to meet Saquon in the

764
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 3: offseason and say, you know, what's up, champ Like, it's

765
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 3: good to be a part of this whole thing with

766
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 3: those guys too.

767
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,720
Speaker 1: Was that the Nick Foles Super Bowl? Was it? Yes? Yes?

768
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: Who's more popular in Philly? Jalen Hurts or Nick Foles?

769
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 2: If you say Foles, I'm going to go to Philadelphia

770
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 2: and punch every fan in the faces.

771
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:15,239
Speaker 4: I can't.

772
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 3: Foles has a statue right now? What Yeah, Foles and

773
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:24,320
Speaker 3: Doug and Doug Peterson thing. It's crazy special statue outside

774
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 3: the stadium, right, Yes, and so I can't really say.

775
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 3: I think it depends on how old a person is.

776
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 3: If a person's like forty, I bet it's Foles. But

00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,799
Speaker 3: if somebody's like twenty three, No questions asked this. Jalen Hurts, right,

00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,439
Speaker 3: Oh me too, bro, And I just I just hate

799
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:25,400
Speaker 3: it because like, once you tell people you smoke, which

800
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 3: shouldn't be.

801
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 4: Like groundbreaking shit, like it's legal. It's a giant industry

802
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 4: for it. I wonder why, Yes.

803
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:33,880
Speaker 2: As soon as you tell him you smoke, they assume

804
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 2: that you're stoned all the every fucking time.

805
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 3: Any anything I do, I get at least like two

806
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:43,319
Speaker 3: people being like he's high right now, I'm like, and

807
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,839
Speaker 3: if I am, it's pretty fucking impressive. I just broke

808
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 3: down the whole game in detail.

809
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 1: High is normal for us. I don't understand.

810
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 4: They do not understand that.

811
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 1: On the way out here, Chris Long Foundation, tell everyone

812
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,399
Speaker 1: about it. You're doing great work. You're always doing great work.

813
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 3: Thanks so much man. You know, yeah, Chris Long Foundation,

814
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 3: we do two things. We bring clean water to people

815
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,800
Speaker 3: who need it, and we also work in the educational

816
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 3: equity space, giving kids opportunities that they might not otherwise

817
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 3: have in the classrooms. So the first thing is we

818
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 3: do clean water wells in East Africa, and domestically we

819
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 3: provided over a half a million people with clean water.

820
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,720
Speaker 3: Our goal is a million people. We do large solar

821
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 3: powered wells in East Africa. We do a lot more,

822
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 3: you know, like single family home projects in the United States.

823
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 3: Just there's two plus million people in the United States

824
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:30,839
Speaker 3: without clean water.

825
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 4: Crazy to go to somebody's house and.

826
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 3: Their water's red because there's so much iron in it,

827
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 3: and kids are like taking hose showers and they're drinking

828
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:42,760
Speaker 3: bottle water and it's right under our noses. And obviously

829
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 3: in East Africa the need is even more dire. And

830
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 3: then you know, as far as you know, the kids

831
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 3: we're working within schools. We do do filtration systems in schools,

832
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,879
Speaker 3: and we do essential needs item lockers. So like kids

833
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 3: that don't have you know, shoes without holes in them,

834
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,319
Speaker 3: or you know, they don't have winter coats, or they

835
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 3: don't have hygiene products. You know, I just was a

836
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 3: really shitty student and I'm you know, like you know,

837
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 3: massive amounts of ADHD and struggled in school, and school

838
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 3: always terrified me. And I always felt like, you know,

839
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,680
Speaker 3: I'm this big confident guy or whatever, but like in school,

840
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 3: I was like I was not, and and I think

841
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 3: I'm smart, but it just so it's one of those

842
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,880
Speaker 3: things where I can definitely empathize with a kid who,

843
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,959
Speaker 3: every time they show up for school doesn't even have

844
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:34,120
Speaker 3: the necessities the basics we say in football, look good,

845
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,240
Speaker 3: feel good, play good. It's the same thing in the classroom.

846
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 3: If you're worried about the fact that you don't have

847
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 3: a code, or yourself conscious because you don't have a toothbrush,

848
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 3: or you know, you don't have deodorant or hygiene products

849
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 3: for girls like that can wreck a kid in elementary

850
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 3: school's day. And so we've got these lockers set up

851
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 3: and it's.

852
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,439
Speaker 4: Been cool man. So Chris Long foundation out of work.

853
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 3: Check that out and and give if you feel inclined.

854
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 2: Yep, that ADHD is a burden something that I live with.

855
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 2: No pot helps, certainly, so does the adderall. You and

856
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:06,399
Speaker 2: I have a lot in common. We have a lot

857
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:07,759
Speaker 2: to talk about, Chris Long, We do.

858
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:08,280
Speaker 1: We should.

859
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 4: So does the adderall.

860
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: You're not supposed to mix the too.

861
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 4: But the adderall doesn't help the pod.

862
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: Now, the adderall doesn't help. No, it does not.

863
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,719
Speaker 4: It helps me a lot nothing like you're just like

864
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 4: all right.

865
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 2: Now, you really got to let the adderall wear off

866
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 2: before you start getting into the weed.

867
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 1: And no adderall on the weekends. That's the deal, you know, dude.

868
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,920
Speaker 3: I'll take I'll take it. I'll take a two and

869
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 3: a half I R because X will have me like

870
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 3: I'm like a damn electricity.

871
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,280
Speaker 1: Like XR. This is getting into the weeds.

872
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 2: But the X the x R is the extended release

873
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 2: that lasts like fucking twelve hours.

874
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:46,359
Speaker 1: The IR is a quick hit.

875
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,040
Speaker 3: But I'll take like a five at like eat in

876
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 3: the morning, like it doesn't take much for me, right,

877
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 3: and I can't fucking sleep like I'm still wired and

878
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 3: like so I'm like a slow metabolizer or something.

879
00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 4: But it doesn't take much for me. Bro.

880
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I smoked the weed to get to sleep.

881
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:02,239
Speaker 1: That's the deal.

882
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 4: That's all right. It's a system. It's a system thing.

883
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 4: You gotta keep your systems in check.
