Speaker 1: Calm Down with Aaron and Carissa is a production of
Speaker 1: I Heart Radio Y Hello, Calm Down Podcast program number
Speaker 1: one in your Heart, Aaron Andrews and Action. The regular
Speaker 1: season is over, playoff football is upon us, and so
Speaker 1: we needed to bring in a resident quarterback break it
Speaker 1: all down and catch us up on all things. Jay
Speaker 1: Cutler will be our guest today. He joins us on
Speaker 1: the Calm Down Podcast. He also has his own podcast,
Speaker 1: which is surprising to me because he's a guy that
Speaker 1: did not love chatting with us me media throughout his career,
Speaker 1: so that'll be fun to chat with him. He's coming
Speaker 1: up later. But Aaron, you just got done working the
Speaker 1: Niners Rams game, which was unreal. We of course record
Speaker 1: this podcast on Monday and it airs on Thursday. That
Speaker 1: was one of many great games on Sunday for the
Speaker 1: last week of the regular season. What was that like
Speaker 1: for you? I mean you and I were texting back
Speaker 1: and forth as it was like getting close to the end,
Speaker 1: look like the Rams we're gonna win, back and forth.
Speaker 1: What was the whole thing like? Yeah, it was awesome.
Speaker 1: I mean my notepad in just like trying to figure out, okay,
Speaker 1: if it goes this way. I thought that was one
Speaker 1: of the cool moments of our text chain with me
Speaker 1: you Peter Schrager was it was coming down to the
Speaker 1: final minutes and I was like, I'm gonna get Jalen
Speaker 1: because Jalen, you know, had the interception that led to
Speaker 1: the Rams scoring points and then von Miller makes the
Speaker 1: big play at the end. I'm like, it's perfect, and
Speaker 1: so I loved it because that's what I do with
Speaker 1: my dad a lot. I do that with Joel Santos
Speaker 1: are features producer. I'm always kind of just flipping questions
Speaker 1: and you know, writing out what do you think? What
Speaker 1: do you think? And triggers like, yes, you have to
Speaker 1: have him talk about the interception. And then oh, it
Speaker 1: went into over time and then the forty nine one,
Speaker 1: which I'm not I'm not saying I'm upset. The forty
Speaker 1: niners one. We just you know, I thought my sideline
Speaker 1: was the Rams, and then Jimmy g drops an F
Speaker 1: bomb with Tom Rinaldi, and then the whole game. We
Speaker 1: our crew was on such a high when we left,
Speaker 1: and then the Chargers Raiders game was outstanding. It was
Speaker 1: such a cool day of football. Not if you were
Speaker 1: a Colts fan now, yeah, not if you're a Colts fan,
Speaker 1: which you know what, and this is how I always
Speaker 1: think about it. They could have wrapped it up the
Speaker 1: week before by beating the Raiders, and they didn't do
Speaker 1: it then, and the business, No, you didn't take in,
Speaker 1: so you don't deserve to be there. I'm big on that.
Speaker 1: And then I can't imagine being a Pittsburgh Steelers fan
Speaker 1: when you sit there and then you look over and
Speaker 1: I was, you know, obviously doing in game updates all day,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, you get an update on the score
Speaker 1: from the from the Jags game, and You're like, holy
Speaker 1: sh it, because they needed the Colts to lose in
Speaker 1: order for their tim to get in. Then they were
Speaker 1: behind at that point, they were behind by like a
Speaker 1: touchdown or field goal or whatever. And then I'm like,
Speaker 1: can somebody tell them on the sideline that the Colts
Speaker 1: are gonna lose, Like, let's put a little pep in
Speaker 1: our step here to beat the Ravens because that's not
Speaker 1: an easy out anyways. Um So, yeah, it was a
Speaker 1: really fun day of football and then we faced. I
Speaker 1: met up with Terry Bradshaw after the show with my
Speaker 1: parents because they're in town. And they love seeing Terry
Speaker 1: And then we facetimes you from the bar where we
Speaker 1: were at and that game was crazy. I thought it
Speaker 1: was going to be a tie and it was just
Speaker 1: one of those Sundays that I mean, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of great football throughout the year, but that final game
Speaker 1: of the regular season, where so many dominoes have to
Speaker 1: fall for people to get in, was awesome. So you
Speaker 1: made headlines this week for some nonsense. Um, I I
Speaker 1: think it's nonsense that you hugged Aaron Rodgers after the game.
Speaker 1: After you guys, you know, after what who did they play?
Speaker 1: That was our Christmas Day game? Um, that was the
Speaker 1: game that he broke Brett Farve's record for most touchdowns
Speaker 1: thrown by a Green Bay Packer. And yeah, it was crazy.
Speaker 1: I think I pretty much have hugged Aaron Rodgers since
Speaker 1: I started covering the NFL. He's been a good friend
Speaker 1: of mine for the last fifteen years. And you know,
Speaker 1: not even that it was so funny, because, um, I
Speaker 1: think the people close to me in my life, including
Speaker 1: my family members, to other quarterbacks I know or other players,
Speaker 1: are like, why is this a big deal? And I
Speaker 1: loved Pat McAfee for joking around with him and being like,
Speaker 1: you two got to stop hugging. And I loved Aaron
Speaker 1: kind of saying like she's my friend, and second of all,
Speaker 1: like it's like him mentioning, well, it's like I hug
Speaker 1: other guys opposing players, you know when I see them.
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, like I've looked at like one
Speaker 1: of the guys. But it was funny like Sunday, I
Speaker 1: hadn't seen O'Dell and he ran over by me, and
Speaker 1: I was like, how are you doing? And he looked
Speaker 1: so happy, and I just said, God, I missed that smile.
Speaker 1: And he was like, good to see you, and he
Speaker 1: gave me a hug. Saw von Miller gave him a
Speaker 1: big hug because you know, he did dancing with the starts.
Speaker 1: A what do people forget? You know, we are with
Speaker 1: these guys eighteen weeks out of the year. We see
Speaker 1: them all the time. We're with them during the highs,
Speaker 1: during the lows of their career. I'm grateful for, you know,
Speaker 1: the access they've given me. And and I just I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you for the first time the first time,
Speaker 1: whether you want to call Aaron Rodgers a lightning rod
Speaker 1: with his stance on COVID or whatever. I don't want
Speaker 1: to get involved in that what I'm getting involved in
Speaker 1: his sports. And I was pumped he broke the record.
Speaker 1: I thought it was a cool moment. I was I
Speaker 1: was glad I got to cover it and be there.
Speaker 1: The fans are channing m v P. You know it.
Speaker 1: He has had so much adversity with that organization. Am
Speaker 1: I staying? Am I not staying? I just go in
Speaker 1: Montana during his press conference together, watching and like hanging
Speaker 1: on every word he was saying and trying to defend
Speaker 1: that position up. It was just a really really cool moment,
Speaker 1: and so interviews over. Yeah, I gave him big hug,
Speaker 1: Mary Christmas go enjoy it. And for the first time
Speaker 1: in my career, I kind of thought this was like
Speaker 1: a chick thing. They're going after it because I'm a female. Now,
Speaker 1: maybe I have it wrong and they're just going after
Speaker 1: it because Aaron's a lightning rod right now. But I
Speaker 1: will say this, no one has said anything when Greg
Speaker 1: Olsen and Kittle tackled and hugged each other. In fact,
Speaker 1: it's an NFL meme. In fact, they used it in
Speaker 1: the middle of the game because it's a cool moment
Speaker 1: Greg and Kittle or tackling, and then we do a
Speaker 1: big hug. You know, I've watched Monday Night football where
Speaker 1: you got most is then hugging the guy. And I
Speaker 1: never get that way because I'm very, very grateful for
Speaker 1: my job and I'm I'm so grateful for my employers.
Speaker 1: But for the very first time, I was like, is
Speaker 1: this cause I'm a chick. If I had been a
Speaker 1: guy and I gave him a hug, would anyone have cared?
Speaker 1: That was the first time in my career I felt
Speaker 1: that way. That's interesting that you say that that's the
Speaker 1: first time you felt that way, because you and Lessa starting.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's the first time, but I
Speaker 1: just wanted to write it so bad because I was like,
Speaker 1: I had all these other tips. Stafford beat Seattle in
Speaker 1: on Thursday night football. He's a friend of mine, I'm
Speaker 1: friends with his wife. I gave him a big hug
Speaker 1: and it was on camera after and no one cared.
Speaker 1: But so maybe it's because Aaron's a lightning rod, maybe whatever.
Speaker 1: I mean, it was just so stupid slow news day. Well,
Speaker 1: but but I along the same lines, you and Melissa
Speaker 1: Stark talked about it when she was a guest on
Speaker 1: the Calm Down podcast hosted with you Um about having numbers,
Speaker 1: like getting getting numbers of players and asking them for
Speaker 1: their number to you, yeah, I mean, and I've had
Speaker 1: this be a problem in relationships where it's like, well,
Speaker 1: why do you have so and so's number. It's like,
Speaker 1: because I covered them, and that's access that if I
Speaker 1: established relationships with these guys completely platonically, and it's a
Speaker 1: it's a double standard. And you know, you and I
Speaker 1: are always the first, like always air on the side
Speaker 1: of like we're you know, we want to be one
Speaker 1: of the guys like go with the flow, all that
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. But there are real moments where you're like, oh, okay,
Speaker 1: this makes this is different. Whether it's an outfit you're
Speaker 1: wearing or you know something, there are always double standards,
Speaker 1: and in this particular case for you, it's interesting to
Speaker 1: hear you say that that and I know that there's
Speaker 1: the other argument. We're doing the interview six ft apart
Speaker 1: because of the COVID protocol. It is what it is.
Speaker 1: I understand that I'll do whatever the NFL needs me
Speaker 1: to do, but if a player is coming in to
Speaker 1: give me a hug. It's a two second thing. It's
Speaker 1: not like I'm not worried about getting infected. I'm on
Speaker 1: a sideline that is packed with people, by the way,
Speaker 1: and I'm standing a lot closer to them than You've
Speaker 1: been tested and you went through pro vaccinated and boosted
Speaker 1: and all the things. So you know, people are like
Speaker 1: coming after me and my d MS. Why do you
Speaker 1: stand that far apart because I'm doing what the NFL says.
Speaker 1: They pay my checks. Whatever you want. But you know what, afterwards,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give my friend a hug and then I'll
Speaker 1: go give the you know whoever. It's like we had.
Speaker 1: I had somebody, a funny person kind of say to
Speaker 1: me on a conference call the other day. I was like, Hey,
Speaker 1: if I give you a hug, am I gonna get
Speaker 1: in trouble? And I was like, just do it and
Speaker 1: see what happens. Down no newsday and calm down. Thank
Speaker 1: you America. All right, we're excited. Jake Cutler coming up
Speaker 1: after our quick little break. We talked NFL and a
Speaker 1: whole lot more to stay with us. Where are you
Speaker 1: in this set up? You look great? Thank you. I'm
Speaker 1: in my studio in Nashville. My studio in Nashville. Are
Speaker 1: you at the Aldane's house? Is this where he's reporting
Speaker 1: his next album? I'm gonna actually going over there this
Speaker 1: afternoon in the West game? Can we go to the
Speaker 1: National Championship? Who do we have tonight? Guys? You know
Speaker 1: who I have? Well? Aaron loves Nick Saban. She's going
Speaker 1: to name her child Saban. Fun fact. I think it's
Speaker 1: it's just hardest how to be a team twice, especially okay,
Speaker 1: almost back to back weeks like that. I don't think
Speaker 1: it's hard for nixt Saban. Um J. By the way,
Speaker 1: welcome to the Calm Down Podcast. Thank you, it's a pleasure.
Speaker 1: Thank you for joining us here. Yeah, I didn't have
Speaker 1: a choice. You didn't have a choice. Actually, um wait,
Speaker 1: can we did you watch? Um? I need to know
Speaker 1: percentage wise NFL games yesterday? How many did you watch? What?
Speaker 1: You don't watch anymore? You're over it now. I watched Saturday.
Speaker 1: I watched Saturday's games, and then I watched the end
Speaker 1: of the Raiders Chargers game. Dude, how sick was that?
Speaker 1: Did you think it was going to end in the tie?
Speaker 1: I thought it was. I thought this was gonna be out.
Speaker 1: I was like, there's a chance they were in and
Speaker 1: like that point one percent was gonna get was gonna
Speaker 1: get him. Well, how about the fact that headed into
Speaker 1: that game with the Ravens they only had an eight
Speaker 1: percent I love numbers, um and only had an eight
Speaker 1: percent chance to make the playoffs. And then the Colts
Speaker 1: shipping the bed unbelievable. So you don't watch a lot
Speaker 1: of football in general. Yeah, I'm offended. We did the
Speaker 1: we did the Rams game. What the hell You're not
Speaker 1: putting us on your old friends. Troy Joe and her
Speaker 1: hand and can in my nine year old like loves watching.
Speaker 1: So if I'm with them, we definitely watched. But I
Speaker 1: just we just got back from Chicago. We did We
Speaker 1: did Bears, Bulls, Blackhawks three days in a row. That's
Speaker 1: so cute. So you know, I took the boys and
Speaker 1: we had some friends, Like there was four dads and
Speaker 1: what seven kids? Oh my god, Jay, So I was
Speaker 1: kind of burned out. I was like, I just I
Speaker 1: just need to go away from sports for a minute,
Speaker 1: so you can go to Chicago. Now, when you go
Speaker 1: back to Chicago and you're standing on the field, assuming
Speaker 1: you're on the field, are you saying to yourself, I
Speaker 1: can still do this, I still want to do this,
Speaker 1: or hell no to any of it. When did you
Speaker 1: watch that Bears so you can still play? Is that
Speaker 1: what you're saying? I mean, I think I could go
Speaker 1: for for eleven yards? So why aren't you? Don't you
Speaker 1: miss those production meetings? That was my favorite part? Actually, no, wait,
Speaker 1: Aaron and I were talking about that. Actually we were
Speaker 1: talking about how much you probably, knowing you, how much
Speaker 1: you probably hated those things. You were always really nice
Speaker 1: to usk though it was well, I mean some of it.
Speaker 1: It's just like, you know, we're not going to answer
Speaker 1: some of these questions. But like as you got older,
Speaker 1: you realize, all right, it doesn't matter, just tell whatever
Speaker 1: the hell they wanted, Yes, exactly what? Okay, Chris and
Speaker 1: I were asking this postgame interviews, what's the one question
Speaker 1: you freaking cringe when a reporter asked the player? You know,
Speaker 1: it would be like, you know, like what happened on interception?
Speaker 1: Like you know, why did you why did you throw
Speaker 1: it there? Well, you know what, there's seventy five different
Speaker 1: things that happened here and and and you know sometimes
Speaker 1: you know, receiver just felled down. But you can't be like, hey,
Speaker 1: the receiver fell down. Yeah, you can't. You can't be like,
Speaker 1: you know what the o C called an awful play,
Speaker 1: I just rain it and you know, or if it
Speaker 1: was you know, third and ten, you're down by you know, twenties,
Speaker 1: like I'm just pushing the ball out of field. Like
Speaker 1: you can't say those things, and you're like, you know what,
Speaker 1: I just gotta do better next time. That is not
Speaker 1: what you would ever say. You know, there's never a quote.
Speaker 1: We will scour the internet where Jakelor said, you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna try harder next time. You didn't not
Speaker 1: ever say that. You didn't. You know. I came from
Speaker 1: Denver where you know, Mike Shanahan was there, and like
Speaker 1: Mike took the blame for stuff that happened. So like
Speaker 1: my first three years, it was like Mike would be like,
Speaker 1: you know, just go out there and play football. I'll
Speaker 1: handle the rest. And so I kind of, you know,
Speaker 1: I came into the league under that and I got um,
Speaker 1: you know that he just took care of me. And
Speaker 1: then I got Chicago and I was like, okay, this
Speaker 1: is this is a different family here. Well, speaking of instructure,
Speaker 1: differently too. And we're talking about cause all the coaching
Speaker 1: the firing today, which always happens in the last game
Speaker 1: of the regular season. Um, how many different coaches did
Speaker 1: you have in Chicago? Well? I mean I had Lovely
Speaker 1: Tressman at Fox who Fox just randomly texted me, what's
Speaker 1: that guy up to? Hanging out with Jay? Going on?
Speaker 1: No idea? I need to text him back and figure
Speaker 1: out what he's up to. But are you not a
Speaker 1: good texter or backer? I feel like you would be
Speaker 1: like a four day Like, what's you're You're not a
Speaker 1: right away text guy? What's the window four days, five
Speaker 1: to seven? Well, that's my problem because you get to
Speaker 1: like day two, three or four, and then it's like,
Speaker 1: it is it awkward? And in my or do I
Speaker 1: just not text back at all? And then it's like,
Speaker 1: well maybe they didn't it or they're just a real
Speaker 1: nick head. I'm not sure. So I flirted. I flar
Speaker 1: with that line way too much. I love that. You
Speaker 1: know what my move always is is when I have
Speaker 1: to text that person back all right, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I totally didn't see the message above. My bad, Like,
Speaker 1: just call it out then and then get to what
Speaker 1: you want that work. Yeah, it works. It depends on
Speaker 1: who it is. But um, all right, so you got
Speaker 1: a text Foxy back. So you had four total coaches
Speaker 1: and coaches, but like the amount of I don't even
Speaker 1: remember the amount out sees me, which makes more of
Speaker 1: a difference because we were learning a different language, like
Speaker 1: every like two or three years. I was just gonna
Speaker 1: say how difficult that was. So you were eight years
Speaker 1: total in the NFL. Stop it. I want to go
Speaker 1: back to what we came on with it. Are you eleven? Twelve? Oh?
Speaker 1: Because you were eight in Chicago? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so between Denver, the Bears and Miami, because you're only
Speaker 1: there for a second, got it? Twelve years in the NFL?
Speaker 1: What were you gonna say? I wanna have Jay tell
Speaker 1: us what he was talking about when we started this.
Speaker 1: The best thing to start with is like a really
Speaker 1: great GM. Who do you love? Jay? Like? Who, in
Speaker 1: your mind is a kick ass GM. I mean you
Speaker 1: were talking about what you were talking about the Jets.
Speaker 1: I love the I love the Jets. GM. I mean
Speaker 1: he was in he was in Chicago, Um whenever Fox
Speaker 1: he was there, and I mean they're they're gonna get it. Flipped,
Speaker 1: I think, and then you know, I know the assistant GM.
Speaker 1: Those guys are those guys are really good football people.
Speaker 1: They know football, they know talent um, they know culture.
Speaker 1: They're gonna get figured out like this is. Some of
Speaker 1: these teams are just so bad that the Jets are
Speaker 1: so bad, the Jags are so bad, like they have
Speaker 1: no talent. Okay, so you you get to start. Okay,
Speaker 1: so you're you're starting with the GM. Who's the quarterback
Speaker 1: right now? You pick to build your organization around. Who's
Speaker 1: a quarterback? You love a young kid? Anyone? Well, I
Speaker 1: mean anyone. I mean that's that's fine. I mean there's Aaron.
Speaker 1: You can do whatever we want you do Aaron, you are,
Speaker 1: We'll give you here, Yeah, I take Okay, Okay, I
Speaker 1: think Aaron's another five years and at least do you
Speaker 1: want to do you think Aaron wants to play five Well? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but do you think he wants to say? No doubt
Speaker 1: he wants to play five more years. I don't even
Speaker 1: if he wants to play another year period. I know
Speaker 1: you guys saw each other a lot in the NFC North.
Speaker 1: What's your relationship with him? You close with him? Their friends? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't say I just heard these moving
Speaker 1: to Nashville too. On the reality show that you did,
Speaker 1: which I obviously there was a myriad of reasons you
Speaker 1: did it, but you came across well okay, yeah, fair enough, um,
Speaker 1: but you came across so likable and you're not like,
Speaker 1: didn't we know you obviously from sports in life, but
Speaker 1: people that didn't know you were like this guy rules
Speaker 1: because you basically just like shoot on anything reality TV
Speaker 1: wise and kind of opened up and like pulled back
Speaker 1: that curtain like whatever. Did you enjoy the process at all? Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's parts of that I definitely enjoyed. And we were
Speaker 1: we were fast. We were so quick, Like you know,
Speaker 1: the producers would come in and you know, we had
Speaker 1: a storyline and all and stuff, and they would come
Speaker 1: in and they were like, all right, and we really
Speaker 1: only filmed when the kids were at school, and we
Speaker 1: only filmed in a couple of rooms in the house.
Speaker 1: You know, um, great closet, that's very true. But we
Speaker 1: would just and they would come in and be like,
Speaker 1: all right, this is what we want you guys. This
Speaker 1: is kind of where we want this to go. And
Speaker 1: then I mean, Christen's I mean, she grew up in
Speaker 1: that world, so like she was on it, so you know,
Speaker 1: we would we would click it off pretty quickly and
Speaker 1: an hour later we you know, they're they're rolling out.
Speaker 1: So it wasn't bad. It was fun. I enjoyed it.
Speaker 1: There's parts I didn't enjoy, like it was invasive, like
Speaker 1: having cameras in your house for like four months, because
Speaker 1: they would just leave lights up, like leave everything up.
Speaker 1: I'd be afraid that now I'm in a fight and
Speaker 1: now it's a problem, and now we're recording. There was
Speaker 1: some there were some fights that just were this obviously
Speaker 1: isn't making it, so we're cutting that out. And Christen
Speaker 1: was an EP so I kind of had final final
Speaker 1: say on like every like last cut ything. So that's cool.
Speaker 1: I know you don't care about all the Hollywood stuff,
Speaker 1: and you've been really great about that. But it seems
Speaker 1: and I'm not going to pretend to know your own situation,
Speaker 1: but it seems like you guys have a great relationship
Speaker 1: in spread of everything. Obviously your three children don't even
Speaker 1: laugh at me. I'm being serious, Like that's hard to do. Um, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I wouldn't say great, it's it's it's it's
Speaker 1: working out. I mean I think over time it uh you,
Speaker 1: it'll set on. You know, it'll get better. But you
Speaker 1: know you do the best you pussib we can and
Speaker 1: with three kids involved that you've got, there's certain parts
Speaker 1: you just have to figure it out. Yeah. Less less
Speaker 1: is more about it right now with you know, our relationship.
Speaker 1: But it's fun. Yeah, as someone who's an expert in divorce, UM,
Speaker 1: I get it. Okay, Jay, We're gonna have some fun
Speaker 1: with you. You're ready for this? Wait? Can I ask
Speaker 1: one thing? I want to ask you, not even ask about,
Speaker 1: but I remember one episode and actually my husband was
Speaker 1: sitting and watching. I can't remember ja if you were painting,
Speaker 1: you were doing something. My husband's like being married to
Speaker 1: Monica Geller from Friends, he's really freaking O C D.
Speaker 1: Like I always leave this analogy out there if you
Speaker 1: go out and you have a really good time and
Speaker 1: you just like leave all your crap on the side
Speaker 1: of the bed, and it's just like he's like, hey,
Speaker 1: so how long is that going to lay there? And
Speaker 1: I'm like, it's been like a night fucking knocks, Like
Speaker 1: it's fine, you know, but God, I forgot if you
Speaker 1: were like painting or we're painting the closet windows. Actually yes, yes,
Speaker 1: And were you so just detailed with it like you
Speaker 1: were And Jared was like I felt like he was
Speaker 1: really getting attracted to it. Was just like oh my god,
Speaker 1: there's somebody else like me. Like he was like this
Speaker 1: guy's great, like he's great, and I was like, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: it was more like that was like that was like
Speaker 1: for camera. That was so really you're not like that, um,
Speaker 1: I mean with three kids under the age of ten,
Speaker 1: like they literally come home and just destroy stuff. So like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I found myself the last year and a half like
Speaker 1: being like, all right, we I have to have everything
Speaker 1: in order. I've got to Like when they're gone, I'm
Speaker 1: just like I don't I don't care, Like there's probably
Speaker 1: a guarantee. There's probably like chips and like a bunch
Speaker 1: of ships, like Adam the kitchen counter right now, that's
Speaker 1: a beauty though of like being signal again, go for it,
Speaker 1: leave your ship everywhere, do whatever you want. No one's
Speaker 1: gonna be like you have to pick that up. Okay.
Speaker 1: So wait, we have a lot of things we want
Speaker 1: to talk to you about. A couple of things we
Speaker 1: gotta we gotta talk football. Have you looked at this
Speaker 1: playoff matchup? Which one he didn't even watch the NFL?
Speaker 1: Have you looked at the playoffs scenario? Okay, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: I'm gonna run it down for you. I can catch
Speaker 1: up really fast, just giving give gifts to me. Okay,
Speaker 1: So Aaron's working the Tampa Eagles game. There's San Francisco, Dallas,
Speaker 1: Arizona and the Rams. Who's coming out of the Arizona
Speaker 1: in the Rams game? I think it's going to be
Speaker 1: the Rams. Why. I think that Arizona is young. I
Speaker 1: think the offense is young. Playoff football is a little
Speaker 1: bit different. It's faster. Um. I think Stafford's going to
Speaker 1: come into his own. He's gonna get back on track.
Speaker 1: That defense was legits, Um. You know, I think they've
Speaker 1: got a lot of veteran guys that have been there,
Speaker 1: done it. Coach has been there, done it. You know.
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be a little bit looser than Carolina. Wait,
Speaker 1: would you what would you have been like with a
Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh as your coach? Well, I've been like, yeah,
Speaker 1: like he's I love him. I love him too, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I love how vocal. He is in the headset,
Speaker 1: you know, he's talking through and he's walking you through it.
Speaker 1: I think he does a really good job. I mean,
Speaker 1: I've always loved Stafford. I've always loved when he played. Um.
Speaker 1: I thought they absolutely rairoaded him in Detroit for all
Speaker 1: those years. So it's cool to see because I mean,
Speaker 1: I think he's one of the most talented dudes in
Speaker 1: NFL by far. Like his arm town is ridiculous. UM,
Speaker 1: So it's good to see him with a coach like
Speaker 1: that that gets said you can use them the right way.
Speaker 1: How about big Y yesterday Aaron having worked the game,
Speaker 1: you saw it McVeigh like getting told by the officials
Speaker 1: to get back on the sideline. He's like in the
Speaker 1: end zone after they scored, like all jacked up. How
Speaker 1: he hasn't pulled a hammy or ripped in achilles blows
Speaker 1: my mind. I mean, my man needs like an ivy
Speaker 1: at halftime. He is just up and down like a
Speaker 1: crazy person. And and he's only he's only like five
Speaker 1: three hamstrings is like a lot of length. You know,
Speaker 1: he's great. Um, all right, so just give me your
Speaker 1: we won't, we won't for you with all of them
Speaker 1: just give me your NFC. No, I want Dallas San Francisco.
Speaker 1: I want to hear how good I think that's I
Speaker 1: think that's kind of mane me a toss up. I
Speaker 1: think you know, Shanahan's a hell of a coach and
Speaker 1: he grab some talent to guys, there's my geno. I
Speaker 1: mean Dallas. I mean, would they put up forty or
Speaker 1: fifty something in this past game versus Philly. I don't
Speaker 1: think Philly was really trying that much. I haven't bought
Speaker 1: into the hype of Dallas. I like that. I've bought
Speaker 1: in the hype of him. Um that I think Dallas
Speaker 1: tho C is really good. Um, I just I've just
Speaker 1: never been in Dallas. I'm a boughten to so I
Speaker 1: think that's gonna be a tighter game that people think.
Speaker 1: What's the line? But now, I don't get betting. I
Speaker 1: love betting. I'm a I had a little bit lines
Speaker 1: I would I would guess in that game, I'd say
Speaker 1: at least seven Dallas go look it up? Is it
Speaker 1: not out? When did these things come out? Ryan? Ryan,
Speaker 1: a wonderful producer, will tell us in the chat what
Speaker 1: the line is? I swear, Okay, we get We're so
Speaker 1: much information to about these games and I don't know
Speaker 1: a thing about it. We literally have a text chain
Speaker 1: with Jackie Quick Jonathan Quick, um the Awesome Kings, who
Speaker 1: he and I love gambling, and so Aaron started us
Speaker 1: on this text chain called Fox bet Dallas oh minus
Speaker 1: three no ship. Actually that means they're expected to win
Speaker 1: by three points. No way, Aaron, So so j you'll
Speaker 1: like this? Okay, Aaron, So what do you thinking? So
Speaker 1: that is right? They're expected to win by three points.
Speaker 1: They get three points because they're they're the better team.
Speaker 1: So here they get three points. They're expected to win
Speaker 1: by three right, three point three points in NFL, that's
Speaker 1: just a home advantage, Like that's it's a It's basically,
Speaker 1: why are we jocking what we are jocking? San Francisco?
Speaker 1: After we did you watch what we're talking about? At
Speaker 1: halftime with Aaron, we're texting you with trigger being like
Speaker 1: Trey Lance music goo and at halftime they had a
Speaker 1: great second half off Sarah France should know. Wait, Jay,
Speaker 1: I have a question about that. I know you didn't
Speaker 1: watch our game, and I'm highly offended, but I am
Speaker 1: wondering so exactly, like we're thinking ship, it's going to
Speaker 1: be a blowout, Like this is the time I'm getting
Speaker 1: on air. Now, I got stuff, guys, Donald's childhood. Here
Speaker 1: we go. So but yeah, and like McVey, McVeigh comes
Speaker 1: out and he's like, yeah, we're gonna run the ball.
Speaker 1: My Jay doesn't know I do impressions. Oh my god, Jay,
Speaker 1: she's unbelievable with do your Troy, Aaron, do your Troy.
Speaker 1: Hold on, let me do Sean first Aaron. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I you know, I'm really happy with our defense. You
Speaker 1: know what. I love the way we played all around
Speaker 1: and what we're gonna do here is we're gonna come out,
Speaker 1: We're gonna try to run the ball. We're gonna sustain drives,
Speaker 1: and we gotta finish. And I was like, Sean, you've
Speaker 1: really checked all the boxes. You guys have done everything,
Speaker 1: you know, three and out like it's a physical game. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but we gotta finish. Um too good. Yeah, I love
Speaker 1: Joe Buck can do it a lot better. But anyways, um, yeah,
Speaker 1: so what the hell happens? Like, honestly, it looks like
Speaker 1: it's going to be a blowout. And I love Kyle Shanahan.
Speaker 1: I love some yeasies. I love a flat firm. I
Speaker 1: love his freaking swag I do. I'm into Kyle Shanahan.
Speaker 1: How does ship? Yeah, he wears it well. I also
Speaker 1: love that Montana shirt you're wearing right now to No. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so wait, you can't. You can't do the two curved
Speaker 1: in baseball. Have used to put a baseball and like
Speaker 1: wrap that with a rubber band. My brother all the time,
Speaker 1: a slight curve. No. I like how he's got it he.
Speaker 1: I like how he pulls up the mandated like football
Speaker 1: pants a little bit up to his shins where he
Speaker 1: Morris was doing that yesterday. I'm into the whole vibe,
Speaker 1: Like we're not wearing that ship to our ankles were
Speaker 1: pulling it up. So how do you just like shift
Speaker 1: ship in the locker room? I know that that's what
Speaker 1: you guys are paid very well to do, but that's incredible,
Speaker 1: Like they just came and ran the goddamn ball. After that,
Speaker 1: you're she's talking about adjustments, like you go in at halftime.
Speaker 1: It was crazy Cisco not watching the game. You know,
Speaker 1: Let's say you're down at half by a lot in
Speaker 1: an instrumental game, you win, and you're in the playoffs.
Speaker 1: What are you saying to your team, Are you saying anything?
Speaker 1: What is said? Go, well, I think he's gonna talked
Speaker 1: to the other CEA. If you're struggling, you know, it's
Speaker 1: like all right, like why what are you playing? You know?
Speaker 1: Are they are they just selling this out? They're playing
Speaker 1: too high? You know? Are we are we just miss
Speaker 1: s blocks? Are we messing up? This is a penalty situation.
Speaker 1: Are we just turning the ball over, We're doing dumb
Speaker 1: ship or are they actually taking something away where you know,
Speaker 1: if you just start running the football like you probably
Speaker 1: just weren't calling enough runs in the first half and
Speaker 1: they're just staring you to to run the ball. But
Speaker 1: are you vocal? Are you standing up and saying something raw? Raw?
Speaker 1: Motivation depends on the game, you know. I don't think
Speaker 1: it was ever a huge route raw guy. And there's
Speaker 1: certain situations where you gotta wake some dudes up. But
Speaker 1: I mean, I would want to have the conversation with
Speaker 1: the OC like all right, this is what I'm seeing?
Speaker 1: What are you seeing? You know? This was a garbage call.
Speaker 1: This one was on me. This one was because the
Speaker 1: line sucked, This one was because receivers, you know, busted
Speaker 1: a route, but like, are we seeing the same thing?
Speaker 1: You know? Feel wise, like this is how they're playing
Speaker 1: the game versus us, and this is what we gotta do.
Speaker 1: We either got to run them out of what they're
Speaker 1: doing or we've got to, you know, figure someone else
Speaker 1: out what happened with that interception or Matthew or what
Speaker 1: what adjustments. I'll never forget this, you guys. I was
Speaker 1: covering every Lions game because I was a baby reporter
Speaker 1: and got all the chip games. And it was the
Speaker 1: year that they fucking oh and sixteen and thought Marinelli
Speaker 1: at halftime. I was like, oh, coach, what adjustments you
Speaker 1: to make it halftime? He goes, that's a great perfume
Speaker 1: you're wearing. I was like, oh fuck. I was like
Speaker 1: this this is gonna work. Literally, I'm like, all right,
Speaker 1: I gotta make up a report. I'm not kidding. I
Speaker 1: made up a report and I've done that too for
Speaker 1: a coach that I didn't want to throw under the
Speaker 1: bus because he was telling me all the wrong stuff. Dude, Hey, attention, attention.
Speaker 1: We can make up reports. You're not gonna say anything
Speaker 1: that's going to put them in a bad spot. Where
Speaker 1: were saying, Jay, Sorry, but oh, it's six and sixteen, Like,
Speaker 1: what do you say at that point exactly? Are you
Speaker 1: literally have to raise your hand like you know what,
Speaker 1: We're just not very good. We kind of said I
Speaker 1: wish you would have said that phenomenon. That's the truth.
Speaker 1: Do you have you regret of Jay? Oh? Sorry, no, no,
Speaker 1: keep going, you wrote it down. Go No. I was
Speaker 1: just gonna say like things to say. Do you have
Speaker 1: any regrets in your career something you wish you could
Speaker 1: do over? You know, when I was going through the draft,
Speaker 1: I was with uh, I was I was the Titans
Speaker 1: kept bringing me in just because I was at Vanderbilt
Speaker 1: and Jeff Fisher Um was the coach then, and he
Speaker 1: was like, hey, you know, I asked Vince this, I
Speaker 1: asked Um that line at this like he was if
Speaker 1: you could change anything with your career, like what would
Speaker 1: it be? And I was like, you know, and I
Speaker 1: thought there for a second, and I was like, you
Speaker 1: know what, I don't think there is like it is
Speaker 1: what it is? You know, I'm sitting right here, Um
Speaker 1: and looking back on my career. I don't. I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: then there's certain games you want to change, there's certain
Speaker 1: plays you want to change. But like, at the end
Speaker 1: of the day, there's nothing I would change. There's nothing
Speaker 1: drastic I would change it, do really over again. You know.
Speaker 1: I like where I'm at now. Um you know, enjoyed
Speaker 1: my time in Chicago. There were shitty parts, there were
Speaker 1: great parts. You know, had got three kids out of there,
Speaker 1: so I mean it was it's fun. I mean, I
Speaker 1: enjoy it. Looking back on it, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: fond memories. And whenever we went to the game, you know,
Speaker 1: we took the boys of the game. It was great
Speaker 1: being back. Everyone in Chicago was fabulous. You know, we
Speaker 1: went to dinner like we we had fun. So you
Speaker 1: know I would I wouldn't change anything, um ja. I
Speaker 1: know I make fun of what's gonna happen. You change
Speaker 1: one thing and yeah, totally, that's like a movie. Um,
Speaker 1: I know I make fun of you sometimes with the
Speaker 1: don't care comment. Were you surprised by how big of
Speaker 1: a deal that became when you said don't care? I
Speaker 1: don't know if I said it. I mean, you know
Speaker 1: the story tell us that tell us your story, because
Speaker 1: I think I know the story that everyone like you
Speaker 1: were asked a question and you just said you don't care.
Speaker 1: That's not the story. Well, then set the record straight.
Speaker 1: Jay the story. I mean, I probably did say that
Speaker 1: in an interview at some point. But the story goes
Speaker 1: that someone came up to me in a bar in
Speaker 1: the back room and we're in the we're in the bathroom.
Speaker 1: I'm going to the bathroom at a unurnal and he
Speaker 1: comes up and he's like, hey, you know I went
Speaker 1: to Vanderbilt too, And I just said, don't care great
Speaker 1: and that yes, whether who wants to talk about it
Speaker 1: while you're paint, I know, and whether it happened, whether
Speaker 1: it happened, I don't know. I'm asking about that. I mean,
Speaker 1: it very well could have happened, absolutely, but I can't
Speaker 1: verify yes or no. So I just say I mean,
Speaker 1: probably did. I don't got it, okay, Well, because it
Speaker 1: just became like this bigger thing, and you know, in
Speaker 1: the world of the internet, memes and all this other
Speaker 1: stuff that was like attached to you. So I wondered
Speaker 1: if you actually cared about about that. Um No, because
Speaker 1: after I heard the story, I was like, uh, you know, whatever,
Speaker 1: I apologize that to any kid, but I honestly I
Speaker 1: don't care apologize the kid at the uneral Okay, who's
Speaker 1: your NFC contender? All options are on the table. Who's
Speaker 1: going to the super Bowl? Okay, so you gotta everyone's
Speaker 1: gonna go through Groom Bay. Aaron's on fire, It's gonna
Speaker 1: be cold. All the things. Defense, the defense, defense is good.
Speaker 1: I've seen this movie before. Aaron's taken up residents. Aaron
Speaker 1: Andrews has taken up residency in Green Bay. How many
Speaker 1: games have you worked in at LAMBA seven thousand? Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: who's your a FC team? I think the a FC
Speaker 1: is more of a toss up in Nashville. Nashville people
Speaker 1: are gonna hate me this. I'm not sold on the Titans. Um,
Speaker 1: I still like Patrick and the Chiefs. I think it's
Speaker 1: gonna I if I had picked one, I'd said the Chiefs. Well, Aaron,
Speaker 1: if that ends up happening for um, well you, I mean,
Speaker 1: it'll be the super Bowl. But you guys, you guys
Speaker 1: had that matchup earlier in the year, and then Aaron
Speaker 1: didn't play, which sucks for you. Yeah. Yeah, that was
Speaker 1: a COVID game. But then I had the Dallas Casey
Speaker 1: game and that was a whole different I mean, that
Speaker 1: was a different outcome than we thought was going to happen.
Speaker 1: It was like, where did this defense come from? I
Speaker 1: don't know it all in on the COVID thing, hasn't
Speaker 1: I haven't noticed. Don't hug him, It'll be talked about.
Speaker 1: He's definitely, uh, he's all in. Yesterday I hugged Odell
Speaker 1: Beckham and after I did it, I said, I hugged him.
Speaker 1: Who has a picture? So did? I like hugged Matthew
Speaker 1: Stafford This year, I've hugged every I mean, j I'm
Speaker 1: I'm hugging you in my mind right now with your
Speaker 1: aluminous here, it looks fantastic. I don't know, but I
Speaker 1: think is it just because he is just like this
Speaker 1: guy that everybody you know is either you're happy with
Speaker 1: him or you're not happy with him. Is this is
Speaker 1: spark plugged? The right word? CHRISA? What is it? He's
Speaker 1: just the guy right now that everybody's having a good
Speaker 1: time going after what's the word? Yeah? Good? You you win? Yeah,
Speaker 1: He's a lightning rod. It's unreal. I didn't even it
Speaker 1: even works happen the season two? Do you think do
Speaker 1: you think he stays in Green Bay? I think he does.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hug him wherever he goes. So the wait
Speaker 1: hold on. I wanted to ask you about the other
Speaker 1: thing too, Okay, because I think this is funny. Ready
Speaker 1: when I do rapid fire j care or don't care?
Speaker 1: Love it? You hold you hold? You hold several franchise
Speaker 1: records for the Bears, including most touchdown passes, passing yards,
Speaker 1: and wins as a starting quarterback. Care or don't care? Care? Good?
Speaker 1: You were five hundred as a starter in Chicago and
Speaker 1: the team overall record five hundreds is below five hundred
Speaker 1: since you left care or don't care? Wow? Absolutely care? Yeah? Uh,
Speaker 1: Brady leading the league in touchdown passes at forty care
Speaker 1: or don't care? Impressed but don't care? Interesting? Can you
Speaker 1: imagine how old are you now? Thirty eight? So you
Speaker 1: said that you would go back and play for the
Speaker 1: Bears just given the recent performance, say that I said
Speaker 1: everyone is coming back? Yes anyway? Moving on? Um, can
Speaker 1: you believe that that dude is still playing at forty four? Well,
Speaker 1: I tell you what I mean. You guys have been
Speaker 1: in NFL locker rooms, and I mean you've you've seen,
Speaker 1: you've seen how guys take care of themselves, what they eat, like,
Speaker 1: how shitty it is like these guys are literally just
Speaker 1: you know, they're out partying, the running off fumes. I
Speaker 1: think guys have gotten a little bit smarter in that regard.
Speaker 1: Like Tom has been a robot for like the past
Speaker 1: like ten years, like wheat grass, I don't think he's
Speaker 1: had a carb since, like, you know, two thousand twelves.
Speaker 1: I've seen a meat a carb. You know, he's doing
Speaker 1: everything under the sun, and he's probably doing some things
Speaker 1: like we don't even know about their like cutting edge.
Speaker 1: And I will say, like I think if you probably
Speaker 1: track his hits and keep you sat guarantee he's on
Speaker 1: the very very low side of things of quarterbacks in
Speaker 1: the past ten years, I'd be shocked if he's anywhere
Speaker 1: close to being in the middle. Hey, j his center
Speaker 1: Ryan Troy is obsessed with him. He's one of the
Speaker 1: funniest dudes to watch. We'll just you know, he's running around,
Speaker 1: will push guy like he's just like he's an animal.
Speaker 1: I guess he's like a black belt. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you've ever paid attention like us losers have to do,
Speaker 1: but yeah, he's a he's a funny watch man that
Speaker 1: didn't didn't Tom like make them, like doesn't have to
Speaker 1: wear like a towel, like the towel shut down. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know what is it. Like when we first
Speaker 1: got there, they got down to Tampa and you know,
Speaker 1: it's hot at hell down there, Like whenever I played
Speaker 1: out in Miami, I was like, this is a different animal,
Speaker 1: and like sort of it sucks in the summer, especially
Speaker 1: playing there like September and you know Tom, you know,
Speaker 1: he put his hand on his ass like just dripping
Speaker 1: just as sweat, and so he was like he was like,
Speaker 1: you know what, like you're just we're gonna stuck a
Speaker 1: towel down there. So if you watch, if you watch games,
Speaker 1: if it's if it's hot, like there's a towel like
Speaker 1: stuff down his ass, and I'm sure he has to
Speaker 1: change it, you know, quarterly or whatever. What if it's
Speaker 1: a blowout on Sunday, I'll do that story. I think
Speaker 1: Troyce told this story on air. Yeah, he's definitely asked
Speaker 1: about it. There's a whole punt in blowout in that
Speaker 1: story right there, rights itself. Okay, Jake care, don't care
Speaker 1: cryptocurrency or n f T S. I don't even know
Speaker 1: what that means, you know, what I don't. I don't.
Speaker 1: It's not that I don't care. I don't understand it.
Speaker 1: I don't understand any of it. Thank god. Okay, we're
Speaker 1: in this together. You don't even understand Betty. Have you
Speaker 1: guys figured out like this metaverse thing too? No? I
Speaker 1: just know that it says meta now on Instagram, and
Speaker 1: that's like as close as I get to understanding what's
Speaker 1: going on. World peace for the Lakers. The metaverse is
Speaker 1: like this virtual reality like world, and now there's something
Speaker 1: real estate in the metaverse, so like you can buy
Speaker 1: I look a house in the metaverse and that that's
Speaker 1: your real estate and you can go visit it. No,
Speaker 1: I'm terrified for my kids, Like I want to turn
Speaker 1: off the internet. Yeah it's not even working. Yeah that's true.
Speaker 1: You have a terrible your cricket wireless isn't coming through it.
Speaker 1: New Year's Resolutions. Care or don't care? Um? Mine was
Speaker 1: not I don't care. I was like, I just need
Speaker 1: a drink the water. Drink more water. Me too. I'm
Speaker 1: with you on that. Um Okay, maybe you already answered
Speaker 1: this with the urinal kid Care or don't care? Fans
Speaker 1: asking for a picture or selfie? Um, I do it,
Speaker 1: So I mean, I guess that makes me care, but
Speaker 1: I don't really care. I don't care to do it. Okay,
Speaker 1: you'll do it because you. Um. I need a good story.
Speaker 1: There has to be a story where someone's asked for
Speaker 1: a picture or selfie or something and it's like awkward
Speaker 1: or it's a chick or something like I needed already
Speaker 1: heard about the yearnal couple. We were We were out.
Speaker 1: I think we were out Saturday, and I don't have
Speaker 1: acause this is my best story that I have just recently.
Speaker 1: I was out Saturday and we're watching the games at
Speaker 1: a bar. Who me and some friends, Me and some
Speaker 1: of my rich friends of Lee first you know them, right,
Speaker 1: I know anyone that was a trace in his group? Oh?
Speaker 1: Well famous enough for me. I got it. And we
Speaker 1: were out and about and there's this other group that
Speaker 1: was kind of beside us, and like the group's kind
Speaker 1: of started emerging and stuff, and this girl came up
Speaker 1: and she was like, hey, can you take a picture?
Speaker 1: And I was like yeah, sure, and she handed me
Speaker 1: her phone and then turned around to like the group
Speaker 1: of her girls and she was like and I was like,
Speaker 1: you got it? Do you want to flash on high angle.
Speaker 1: That's amazing. You thought she wanted a picture with you,
Speaker 1: and she just wanted you to take the picture. That's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: That's good six of them, and I was like, this
Speaker 1: is good high angle. You always gotta go high angle
Speaker 1: for the girls. Oh my god, Ja, that's really good. Um,
Speaker 1: my friend eleven years, twelve years, played in two playoffs, bro,
Speaker 1: I mean that was with Chicago. Calm down, um. And
Speaker 1: so then you won one playoff game, right, Okay, Matthew
Speaker 1: Stafford is going to be playing in his fourth, right,
Speaker 1: his fourth playoff game and has yet to win a
Speaker 1: playoff game. Um. And so when you you know, you
Speaker 1: talked so highly about him or a lot of guys
Speaker 1: in the league that still don't have that one playoff win.
Speaker 1: What is different about the playoffs and what's different about
Speaker 1: getting that first win under your belt? Which just faster.
Speaker 1: I mean, everything's I mean, the fans, it's faster, um,
Speaker 1: everyone's I mean I remember whenever went playoffs in Chicago,
Speaker 1: and like the talent was electric. So I mean it's
Speaker 1: just everything is kind of amped up. Like when when
Speaker 1: the season first starts like September, guys are flying around hits,
Speaker 1: are huge. You know, defenses are fast, holes are closing
Speaker 1: real quick. And then you get into like October, November, December,
Speaker 1: and like, you know, three four starters that are down.
Speaker 1: Everyone's a little bit slower. And then I feel like
Speaker 1: it rants right back up from the playoffs start, and
Speaker 1: it's just it's exciting. So I mean, he's he's done
Speaker 1: it enough. It won't face him. I love it. Go Matthew. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I hope they make gron he deserves it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And he's and he's tough as hell. He's played too much,
Speaker 1: so much stuff that one Browns game got the ship
Speaker 1: beat out of him. A series, yeah, d that they had. God,
