Family loves it here. 61 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: The community work that I do here has been detrimental. 62 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: It's a part of me. It's such a big part 63 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: of me to walk around in New Orleans and know 64 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,119 Speaker 1: that you're you're showing love here, to have the cam 65 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: Jordan Foundation take off the way did this last year. 66 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: You know, after we change from God is love, foundation. 67 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 2: To be, to be, have been in this community for the. 68 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: Last eight nine years.

So let me let me, let 71 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 1: me fight some back. And so you know, the contract 72 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: is what it is. I mean, you can get the numbers, 73 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: but you'll figure that out online somewhere. I'm not just 74 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: gonna give it to you. But at the end of 75 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: the day, this is where I want to be. I 76 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: want I've always said I want to win a Super 77 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: Bowl in the Black and Gold. So if it ain't 78 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: all in to the black and Gold, maybe it's not 79 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: for me. And you got to realize there's guys that 80 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: go to different teams and try and win one, you know, 81 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: go go join up with the super Team and think 82 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: they're gonna win one and don't. And I feel like 83 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: all the old g's that I talked to, you know, 84 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: from Justin Tuck back in the day when he went 85 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: over to the Raiders. I mean, I probably I don't 86 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: know if I got privy to say this, but he 87 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: was like, you know, like maybe I was like I 88 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: wish I would have stayed with the Giants. You talk 89 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: about you know, Lamar Woodley from everybody else that you 90 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: see leave and don't. 91 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 2: Win a Super Bowl. You're like, well, what's her point? 92 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: You know, think about looking at Jerry Rice from the 93 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: Niners and then on another team, you just sort of 94 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: look at it. You're like, huh, Big Woods in the 95 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: safety Hall of Famer Robods and you're just like a 96 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 1: different jersey, is it? I look at shoot, I just. 97 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 2: Look at it. Even young guys when they leave. 98 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: You think about Noam day Asena go from Oakley Raiders 99 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: to you know Setle not yeah, the Philadelphia. 100 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 2: Not the same nam D. 101 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: You know. So luckily it's uh, you're fifteen from me 102 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: with the Saints, and we'll see what this ghals. You know. 103 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 2: I love it for me. I really love it for me. 104 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 1: Up, Uh, picking back up Chase Young, who's a who's 105 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: a hell of a hell of a athlete. When we 106 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: talk about you know, look the part six six yoked up, 107 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: you know, with the with the temperament where he wants 108 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: to be better and you I mean, I'll just I'm 109 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: just saying watch the tape. 110 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 2: He pops up frequently. 111 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: I mean, if you looked at years prior to the 112 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: way he was playing this year, That for it is 113 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: is clearly ascending. You know, you always want more, you know, 114 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: you see, I think he's top ten pressures in the 115 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: league this last year. And I mean just think of 116 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: those pressures turn into sacks. How much farther would he 117 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: have been? So there's a reason why you know, there 118 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: there's a plan. You bring in our new defensive defensive staff. 119 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: I mean, if you talk about UH, I think it's 120 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: a solid pickup. We pick up Brandon Staley, who's de 121 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: coordner was a former head coach UH and the and 122 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: the defense that he brings in. I mean, you saw 123 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: how much success Khalil Mack had off the edge under him. 124 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: Of course, Joey Bosa when he was at the Chargers. 125 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: UH and I and beyond that, you know, the DC 126 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: guys they're putting that scheme together. You see, he's like, hey, 127 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: I want to utilize our players and what they're good at. 128 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: And you'd love to hear that. You love to hear, 129 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: and you know that he's got nothing but love for 130 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: the D line. Of course, you bring in Bo Davis 131 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: from LSU UH and I mean, first of all, I've 132 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: seen some of the rants on YouTube like he's going 133 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: after cats. 134 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, no, fire Brimstone coach. 135 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 1: Okay, that's an interior D line coach if I've ever 136 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: seen one. And then from there you know, uh, he's 137 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: so he's an interior D line coach. LSU was upset like, 138 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: how could you take our coach because we needed them 139 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: more than you get, were trying to win the Super Bowl. Uh. 140 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: And we bring in Jay Rogers off the edges, I 141 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: mean he comes from that with that Vic Fangio Tree, 142 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 1: so as dealing with the edges, talking to him, talking 143 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: to Daley really led to help me with my decision 144 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: as well. Just talking to them while I was in 145 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: Africa again, while I was in Germany, right when I landed, 146 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: you know, Monday, and then Tuesday we figure something out. 147 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 1: I think Wednesday we signed the deal whatever, whatever that 148 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: timeline is. Uh, the confidence in there, you know, we 149 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: extend chasing. I'm like, you know what, that's that's great 150 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: for our tea. There's young young blood in there. You 151 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: got Isaiah Fosky, Chase, young Carl Granderson, the young guns. 152 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: We're probably still gonna draft the end. Let's just be real. 153 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: We draft end every other year. It's been about two years, 154 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: so someone us that time for the Saints. No matter 155 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: what we need, we gon draft us an end. And 156 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: I said that because you know, I'm always pushing Let's 157 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: get us another dog at the interior D line. But 158 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: that's just it. We go get Davon Godchild, pure nose, runstopper, 159 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: team him up with Colin Saunders.

There's players that 192 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: need to develop. It's okay not to be a home 193 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: run hit off off the gates. It's hard to do, 194 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: but you can develop. You become a costly pro. You 195 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: can make yourself with the hard work, effort and the 196 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: ability to be special. You don't have to worry about 197 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: all that, you know, so like, let's just give our 198 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: times to grow. You're talking about you know, we got 199 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: a young pup, Christian. 200 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 2: Boyd give him some time to grow. You're one, Okay, 201 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 2: you're two, let's grow. We'll see what he is. You're two, 202 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 2: you're three, year four, it'll go from there. But I'm excited. 203 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: I mean, of course, Brian Young comes back, and you know, 204 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: he did a hell of a job taken over from 205 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 1: I almost said, BUMMDA data guy. Guy that was was 206 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: a former d decordinator with extras andos guy. 207 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 2: You know. 208 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: Jack Oh, just the guy with the pen and somehow 209 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: in the ability to put a pass rush playing together. Anyways, 210 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: glad we've moved on from that. So b Y took 211 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: over at the end of the year, and I mean 212 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: man brought some fresh air to the defense. I think 213 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: the first game he really took over, we played Washington, 214 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: the D line had like eight sacks, seven eight tea 215 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: maybe the team had eight. We had six to. 216 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: Seven out of those. So love to see where that progresses. 217 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: I mean, if we can get back to some early 218 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four first two game productivity, Washington will retake 219 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: him to the wire and Washington is clearly a high 220 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: caliber team right now. It just went deep into the playoffs. 221 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: We took them to the wire. Could have been, could 222 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: have beat him, try to go for the two for 223 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: the win. 224 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 2: You know. 225 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: So just know that our defense is rolling. Guys like Tomorrow, Davis, Tyre, Matthew. 226 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 1: We add in Justin Reid, We bring in, you know, 227 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 1: we bring in guys that I think can help. We 228 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: bring in a tight end. We bring in, I mean, 229 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: we extend. Juwan Johnson shout out to my dogs. Juwan Johnson. 230 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to have him on the pod. You know, 231 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: he's he's him and his wife got a social media 232 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: page Jewish shan Uh, Yeah, I want to. I'ma let 233 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: y'all follow I'm sure they've got a million followers on 234 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: TikTok or whatever that is. 235 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 2: I'm I just started my TikTok journey. But we won't 236 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 2: talk about it. You know. 237 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: This is just this as a time where I'm excited 238 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: about our team, and I feel like every offseason I 239 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: get more excited about being on our team. I look 240 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: at our roster and I say, Chris o'live, I said, 241 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: what she she eat? 242 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 2: All right? 243 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: Derek Carr comes back. You know, uh, you got Specier 244 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: Ratler behind him, and he showed some promise, some gum shit. 245 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: But that's okay. It's okay to develop young players. And 246 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna keep saying it, it's okay. Look what 247 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 1: Jordan Loved did, sat on the bench for three years, 248 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: take three four years, takes over, shows some special they extend, 249 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: take them to the playoffs. You know what I'm saying, Like, 250 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: it's okay to develop young players. You don't just have 251 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 1: to be like we dropped him the first round, so 252 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: he has to produce. Now, you know, it's okay. I 253 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: almost imna keep saying it. It's okay to be okay. 254 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 2: Now for us missing the playoffs four years in a row, 255 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 2: it's not okay. But there's a. 256 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: Reason why we're pivoting head coach defense coaches, and if 257 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 1: it doesn't shake out, they're probably gonna. 258 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 2: Pivot for more players after this year. 259 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: It's okay to be okay, but it's not okay not 260 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: to succeed, and that's what we're trying to do. We're 261 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: trying to succeed as the Saints. So in my mind, 262 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: we've got a lot of talent and if you start 263 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: looking around the league where you're seeing a lot of 264 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: young talent get paid and maybe not see the productivity 265 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: that you'd want to see from the guys that are 266 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 1: getting those high dollars. I mean, there's some names I 267 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 1: had to look up. I was like, I don't know 268 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: who that is. Okay, but it's okay. He showed potential, 269 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 1: and I love it. When you're twenty three, twenty four 270 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: years old, twenty five years old, you get paid off potential. 271 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: At twenty nine, you get paid for what you have 272 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: you done for me? And what can you do for 273 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: my team? At thirty three you get paid for Hey, 274 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: this better be a hell of a year. And at 275 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: thirty five you get paid say hey, we know what 276 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: you can do. We're gonna put. 277 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 2: You in the arsenal because we need that sharp blade, 278 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 2: we know that thing cutting. 279 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm just talking about for myself and Cam Heyward, 280 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: you know, the last of the two thousand eleven draft 281 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: class that's still with their respective. 282 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 2: Teams, so just the camps. 283 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: But I think that there's there's ability and the possibility 284 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: that you can have the probability of going to the 285 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: super Bowl with this team. And that's what every team wants, 286 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: they want, they want the possibility. All you need is 287 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: a take it to the dance, you get to the playoffs, 288 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: and is any any given Sunday for real? 289 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 2: For real? 290 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean when I'm when I'm looking around, 291 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 1: I guess I got so excited. I think about what 292 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: the possibility is, what we can be this year. And 293 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: that's why I don't think retirement ever came into my mind. 294 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: If anything, I was like, you know, I think earlier 295 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: this year, I was like a soldier. The social doesn't 296 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 1: get to decide where he's where he fights at. Is 297 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 1: it anywhere, anytime, any place situation. I've been a soldier 298 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: in a warrior my whole life, So I don't know 299 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 1: how not to be.
