What is your message? 38 00:02:02,508 --> 00:02:04,588 Speaker 1: Did you go through such a special season Yeah, I mean, 39 00:02:04,588 --> 00:02:06,548 Speaker 1: I think we're also a good start, no doubt about it. 40 00:02:06,588 --> 00:02:08,628 Speaker 1: But you know, it's important that we stay humble and 41 00:02:08,668 --> 00:02:10,548 Speaker 1: just continue to go out about our business here in 42 00:02:10,548 --> 00:02:12,748 Speaker 1: Western New York. And that comes down to our leadership. 43 00:02:12,748 --> 00:02:14,588 Speaker 1: We've got a good group of player journal leaders and 44 00:02:14,988 --> 00:02:19,028 Speaker 1: they've done a great job. Josh Jermaine Edmund's, Von Miller, 45 00:02:19,628 --> 00:02:21,908 Speaker 1: Micah Hijordan Pord just to name if you've done a 46 00:02:21,948 --> 00:02:24,908 Speaker 1: great job of really keeping us balanced week to week 47 00:02:24,908 --> 00:02:28,428 Speaker 1: and focused on the prize here coach, you, your whole 48 00:02:28,428 --> 00:02:30,668 Speaker 1: team and yourself. Just coming off the bye week, everyone 49 00:02:30,668 --> 00:02:34,028 Speaker 1: I'm sure looks refreshed. But Sunday night you play the Packers. 50 00:02:34,108 --> 00:02:37,708 Speaker 1: What is the danger in facing a potentially desperate Packers 51 00:02:37,708 --> 00:02:40,508 Speaker 1: team that's lost three straight and Aaron Rodgers, who has 52 00:02:40,508 --> 00:02:42,988 Speaker 1: a lot to say about the way this team is playing. Yeah, 53 00:02:43,068 --> 00:02:46,068 Speaker 1: I mean, listen this, Aaron's the reigning NFL MVP for 54 00:02:46,108 --> 00:02:49,788 Speaker 1: a reason. He's a future Hall of Famer. He's extremely accurate, smart, 55 00:02:50,308 --> 00:02:53,028 Speaker 1: gets the ball out fast, and they're a tough team. 56 00:02:53,068 --> 00:02:55,468 Speaker 1: They're a dangerous team. They've got great players on defense 57 00:02:55,508 --> 00:02:57,708 Speaker 1: as well, and you know there there'll be a tough, 58 00:02:57,988 --> 00:03:00,828 Speaker 1: tough opponent for us here at home in Orchard Park. 59 00:03:01,868 --> 00:03:04,708 Speaker 1: Speaking of good defense, you guys have done a great 60 00:03:04,788 --> 00:03:08,148 Speaker 1: job Tradevius White hasn't played yet this season, Micah High 61 00:03:08,188 --> 00:03:10,468 Speaker 1: has been injured since Week three, but yet you've been 62 00:03:10,508 --> 00:03:13,628 Speaker 1: able to beat Mahomes Lamar Jackson. You beat the defending 63 00:03:13,708 --> 00:03:16,228 Speaker 1: Super Bowl champs in the Rams in week one. You 64 00:03:16,268 --> 00:03:19,468 Speaker 1: guys are finding ways to win with contributions from a 65 00:03:19,468 --> 00:03:22,108 Speaker 1: lot of young players in the secondary and then also 66 00:03:22,148 --> 00:03:24,988 Speaker 1: adding a veteran like Von Miller. What is his impact 67 00:03:25,028 --> 00:03:26,668 Speaker 1: and some of these other vets on the locker room 68 00:03:26,748 --> 00:03:28,948 Speaker 1: been on the defensive side of the ball. Yeah, I 69 00:03:28,988 --> 00:03:31,748 Speaker 1: think you first got to give credit to the mindset 70 00:03:31,788 --> 00:03:34,628 Speaker 1: that Von has helped establish here. You know, just the 71 00:03:34,668 --> 00:03:37,828 Speaker 1: week to week focus, the week to week approach, the 72 00:03:38,228 --> 00:03:40,788 Speaker 1: attitude that he's brought to our football team, not just 73 00:03:40,868 --> 00:03:43,148 Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball, but the entire football 74 00:03:43,188 --> 00:03:46,868 Speaker 1: team has been incredible for us. And then the coaches 75 00:03:46,988 --> 00:03:48,668 Speaker 1: the job that Dave down and getting some of the 76 00:03:48,708 --> 00:03:51,508 Speaker 1: young players ready to go on a week tweek basis 77 00:03:51,548 --> 00:03:54,508 Speaker 1: when guys like Trey White has been out or Micah 78 00:03:54,548 --> 00:03:56,828 Speaker 1: Hyde in this case as well. So it's it's been 79 00:03:56,828 --> 00:03:59,148 Speaker 1: a it's been a true team effort. Coach. You know 80 00:04:00,068 --> 00:04:01,628 Speaker 1: we're on the show. We love you. We have to 81 00:04:01,668 --> 00:04:04,148 Speaker 1: always ask them questions that the fans want to know. Yep, 82 00:04:04,468 --> 00:04:07,308 Speaker 1: Vaughan was an offseason addition. I know you're not in 83 00:04:07,388 --> 00:04:10,588 Speaker 1: the in the name of making splashes, but any update 84 00:04:10,628 --> 00:04:14,908 Speaker 1: on the recruitment of one Odell Beckham? Okay, that's uh, 85 00:04:15,068 --> 00:04:17,828 Speaker 1: that's a better question for Brandon. Be Now we're focused 86 00:04:17,868 --> 00:04:20,708 Speaker 1: on on this week, Peter and what we're trying to 87 00:04:20,708 --> 00:04:23,188 Speaker 1: get done again, just taking it one week at a time, 88 00:04:23,268 --> 00:04:25,828 Speaker 1: staying humble, going about our business the right way and 89 00:04:26,068 --> 00:04:27,748 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, just trying to improve as a 90 00:04:27,748 --> 00:04:30,348 Speaker 1: football team every week. And that other stuff will had stuff, 91 00:04:30,428 --> 00:04:33,348 Speaker 1: it'll handle itself on the right time. And that's that's 92 00:04:33,348 --> 00:04:35,628 Speaker 1: a better question for Brandon, of course. But good try 93 00:04:35,988 --> 00:04:38,228 Speaker 1: one week at a time. Yeah, I wasn't good. Try 94 00:04:39,588 --> 00:04:41,268 Speaker 1: one week at a time. Coach. You sound just like 95 00:04:41,268 --> 00:04:43,628 Speaker 1: your quarterback. We'd be remiss not to talk about your 96 00:04:43,628 --> 00:04:47,068 Speaker 1: franchise qbat Josh Allen. He's throwing nine d or touchdowns, 97 00:04:47,148 --> 00:04:50,468 Speaker 1: he's hurdling defenders. I'm sure you love seeing that. What 98 00:04:50,588 --> 00:04:53,588 Speaker 1: is it about Josh Allen's athleticism that makes his place 99 00:04:53,668 --> 00:04:56,468 Speaker 1: so special. And if you had to pick a play 100 00:04:56,588 --> 00:04:59,668 Speaker 1: then impressed you more Between those two, which one would 101 00:04:59,708 --> 00:05:03,468 Speaker 1: it be? Well, you know, I mentioned to U, to 102 00:05:03,628 --> 00:05:05,868 Speaker 1: Dorisey and the head set right before that ninety eight 103 00:05:05,948 --> 00:05:08,348 Speaker 1: yard touchdown. I said, hey, listen, call the ninety eight 104 00:05:08,428 --> 00:05:11,188 Speaker 1: yard play. This is why we have it in the playbook. 105 00:05:11,188 --> 00:05:13,628 Speaker 1: And that's what he called and that's that's that's what 106 00:05:13,788 --> 00:05:17,308 Speaker 1: we executed. So, uh, No, Josh is having a great year. 107 00:05:17,988 --> 00:05:21,428 Speaker 1: He's off to a great start. You know. He's done 108 00:05:21,468 --> 00:05:23,828 Speaker 1: a great job inside of our building leading on a 109 00:05:23,908 --> 00:05:25,628 Speaker 1: day to day and week to week basis, which I 110 00:05:25,668 --> 00:05:28,188 Speaker 1: think is just as impressive as what he's done on 111 00:05:28,188 --> 00:05:31,548 Speaker 1: the field. So in the greatest part about Josh is 112 00:05:31,548 --> 00:05:35,508 Speaker 1: his mindset right. He's humble, He's a great teammate. I 113 00:05:35,508 --> 00:05:36,948 Speaker 1: think that really speaks to who we are as a 114 00:05:36,988 --> 00:05:39,268 Speaker 1: football team by the way he goes about his business. 115 00:05:39,588 --> 00:05:41,988 Speaker 1: We had the Monday night game earlier this season in 116 00:05:42,028 --> 00:05:44,868 Speaker 1: the building, but something about Sunday night with Rogers in 117 00:05:44,908 --> 00:05:46,788 Speaker 1: the building, and I go back to last year's the 118 00:05:46,788 --> 00:05:49,228 Speaker 1: playoff game that Saturday night, the Patriots come in and 119 00:05:49,268 --> 00:05:52,348 Speaker 1: that crowd was so good.

No, I 170 00:08:11,268 --> 00:08:13,028 Speaker 1: think it'd be a great movie for everyone to watch. 171 00:08:13,108 --> 00:08:15,588 Speaker 1: I highly recommend it.

Good Morning Football is presented by Old Trapper 181 00:08:42,988 --> 00:08:50,788 Speaker 1: Beef Jerky what's your beef? You know what time it is. 182 00:08:50,788 --> 00:08:52,828 Speaker 1: It's time for what' You're beef? Presented by Old Trapper 183 00:08:52,868 --> 00:08:55,708 Speaker 1: beef Jerky, the best in the game, Jamie Urdal. We 184 00:08:55,868 --> 00:08:58,068 Speaker 1: look over to you. What is on your mind today? Well, 185 00:08:58,148 --> 00:09:01,148 Speaker 1: let's remind ourselves. Super Bowl fifty six was played back 186 00:09:01,228 --> 00:09:03,828 Speaker 1: on February thirteenth of this year, and since that day, 187 00:09:03,868 --> 00:09:06,388 Speaker 1: we have the distinct privilege to talk about a game 188 00:09:06,428 --> 00:09:09,188 Speaker 1: that we love and the athletes that we adore. We 189 00:09:09,228 --> 00:09:12,868 Speaker 1: give football a year round treatment that we feel it deserves. 190 00:09:12,948 --> 00:09:15,548 Speaker 1: February seventeenth, just a few days after the Super Bowl 191 00:09:15,588 --> 00:09:19,868 Speaker 1: was played, international basketball star American Britney Griner was arrested 192 00:09:19,948 --> 00:09:23,068 Speaker 1: at a Russian airport on drug charges. Griner was detained 193 00:09:23,108 --> 00:09:26,588 Speaker 1: at a Moscow airport for bringing vape cartridges containing CBD 194 00:09:26,708 --> 00:09:29,588 Speaker 1: oil into the country. She had been prescribed said medical 195 00:09:29,588 --> 00:09:33,068 Speaker 1: marijuana for pain in Arizona. Russia doesn't see it that way. 196 00:09:33,188 --> 00:09:36,788 Speaker 1: Russia see is a hardened criminal. Russia sees a headline 197 00:09:36,788 --> 00:09:40,188 Speaker 1: worthy six foot nine black American. Russia sees a queer 198 00:09:40,228 --> 00:09:44,508 Speaker 1: athlete with the name, stature, and accomplishment worthy of being 199 00:09:44,628 --> 00:09:47,788 Speaker 1: used as a political pawn. The drug charges held a 200 00:09:47,828 --> 00:09:51,628 Speaker 1: maximum ten year penalty in prison. In August, Griner was 201 00:09:51,668 --> 00:09:55,428 Speaker 1: sentenced to nine years yesterday, after an appeal process, and 202 00:09:55,508 --> 00:10:00,228 Speaker 1: despite Griner verbalizing her atonement and blatant lack of malintent 203 00:10:00,388 --> 00:10:03,308 Speaker 1: in this matter, her appeal for a lesser sentence than 204 00:10:03,428 --> 00:10:07,508 Speaker 1: nine years was denied. Her time in a Russian penal 205 00:10:07,548 --> 00:10:10,868 Speaker 1: colony begins now. The sentence that she has been handed 206 00:10:11,148 --> 00:10:14,948 Speaker 1: is bleak. It's heartbreaking. Since February again, when the Super 207 00:10:14,948 --> 00:10:17,988 Speaker 1: Bowl was played, two hundred and fifty one days has happened. 208 00:10:18,148 --> 00:10:20,828 Speaker 1: She's been away from her family, her wife, her teammates, 209 00:10:20,868 --> 00:10:23,308 Speaker 1: her home. She has been away from the country for 210 00:10:23,428 --> 00:10:26,628 Speaker 1: which she has won gold medals. This cannot be the 211 00:10:26,708 --> 00:10:29,588 Speaker 1: story that is written for Britney Griner as an athlete, 212 00:10:29,628 --> 00:10:32,108 Speaker 1: as an American. We cannot forget about her. We have 213 00:10:32,228 --> 00:10:34,348 Speaker 1: to fight for Britney Griner. And the fact that we 214 00:10:34,388 --> 00:10:37,668 Speaker 1: are even at risk of saying things like don't forget BG, 215 00:10:38,228 --> 00:10:41,508 Speaker 1: remember BG, Fight for BG. It speaks to bigger issues 216 00:10:41,548 --> 00:10:45,028 Speaker 1: I think of race and sexuality in our media landscape 217 00:10:45,028 --> 00:10:48,028 Speaker 1: and sports media landscape. Britney Griner is a queer woman 218 00:10:48,068 --> 00:10:51,468 Speaker 1: of color. She's an American, She's an Olympian. She had red, 219 00:10:51,468 --> 00:10:53,628 Speaker 1: white and blue on her chests in those pictures you 220 00:10:53,708 --> 00:10:56,388 Speaker 1: just saw. You cheered for her in the Olympics. She 221 00:10:56,548 --> 00:11:00,028 Speaker 1: is an unjust prisoner for the next nine years of 222 00:11:00,028 --> 00:11:03,668 Speaker 1: her young life in Russia. This I find is grossly 223 00:11:03,828 --> 00:11:07,428 Speaker 1: and ustifiable treatment of an American athlete. If you are 224 00:11:07,508 --> 00:11:09,068 Speaker 1: and I think, if you're watching our show, if you're 225 00:11:09,108 --> 00:11:12,108 Speaker 1: a fan of sport, the treatment of Britney Griner here 226 00:11:12,268 --> 00:11:15,428 Speaker 1: is an indictment on sport on the way athletes, athletes 227 00:11:15,468 --> 00:11:18,268 Speaker 1: of color are being treated. Athletes should be allowed to 228 00:11:18,308 --> 00:11:21,548 Speaker 1: travel and play internationally and supplement their income in a 229 00:11:21,548 --> 00:11:23,908 Speaker 1: way that they don't feel threatened for treatment when they 230 00:11:23,908 --> 00:11:26,108 Speaker 1: get over there, and to be used in this way 231 00:11:26,228 --> 00:11:28,948 Speaker 1: as a pawn, as I mentioned, a political pawn. It 232 00:11:28,988 --> 00:11:31,228 Speaker 1: doesn't matter which way you lean. This woman is an 233 00:11:31,268 --> 00:11:33,468 Speaker 1: American and she's an athlete, and you have cheered for her, 234 00:11:33,508 --> 00:11:35,068 Speaker 1: and you have to keep cheering for her in a 235 00:11:35,108 --> 00:11:37,268 Speaker 1: situation like this. Yeah, to your point, you said, to 236 00:11:37,308 --> 00:11:40,108 Speaker 1: supplement income, and she's making a ton of was making 237 00:11:40,148 --> 00:11:42,588 Speaker 1: a ton of money there in Russia, a million dollars 238 00:11:42,588 --> 00:11:44,708 Speaker 1: compared to her three hundred thousand, as she was making 239 00:11:44,708 --> 00:11:46,908 Speaker 1: in a w NBA, So some people at home will 240 00:11:46,908 --> 00:11:48,948 Speaker 1: sit there and kind and dismiss it and maybe say, well, 241 00:11:48,948 --> 00:11:52,228 Speaker 1: what was she doing over there anyway? And she's supporting herself, 242 00:11:52,348 --> 00:11:54,708 Speaker 1: making a living over there and doing a darn good 243 00:11:54,788 --> 00:11:57,108 Speaker 1: job of that. And she's now in Russia in prison 244 00:11:57,148 --> 00:12:00,028 Speaker 1: where people who have committed crimes far worse than hers 245 00:12:00,228 --> 00:12:03,468 Speaker 1: have been sentenced way less. And like you just said, 246 00:12:03,508 --> 00:12:05,668 Speaker 1: as a woman of color, she's there and we have 247 00:12:05,748 --> 00:12:07,388 Speaker 1: to do more to try to get her back home. 248 00:12:07,428 --> 00:12:09,308 Speaker 1: And I know we all say free BG and the 249 00:12:09,468 --> 00:12:12,708 Speaker 1: w NBA has been super active of doing things, and 250 00:12:12,988 --> 00:12:15,788 Speaker 1: we've talked about a prisoner swapping all of these different things. 251 00:12:15,788 --> 00:12:18,268 Speaker 1: And it's almost been a year since he's been over there, 252 00:12:18,308 --> 00:12:21,908 Speaker 1: a year away from her family, in prison for something 253 00:12:21,948 --> 00:12:24,788 Speaker 1: that so many people here probably I've done and I've experienced. 254 00:12:24,908 --> 00:12:27,668 Speaker 1: And now she's sitting there and we sometimes can forget 255 00:12:27,708 --> 00:12:30,028 Speaker 1: about it. We've gone with our daily lives, and seeing 256 00:12:30,028 --> 00:12:32,348 Speaker 1: her appeal being denied, I think it just gave all 257 00:12:32,348 --> 00:12:34,148 Speaker 1: of us a little bit of beef, as we say 258 00:12:34,348 --> 00:12:36,628 Speaker 1: in this segment, to get her back home so she 259 00:12:36,668 --> 00:12:38,428 Speaker 1: can be with her loved ones, so she could be 260 00:12:38,428 --> 00:12:40,708 Speaker 1: doing a sport that she fell in love with and 261 00:12:40,748 --> 00:12:43,148 Speaker 1: being able to support her family. Week eight of the 262 00:12:43,228 --> 00:12:45,388 Speaker 1: NFL season, Jamie, you could have talked about anything. You 263 00:12:45,388 --> 00:12:47,628 Speaker 1: could have spoken about the Rams running backs. You could 264 00:12:47,628 --> 00:12:50,108 Speaker 1: have talked about the trade deadline. You use your moment 265 00:12:50,148 --> 00:12:52,548 Speaker 1: to talk about something that was very important and I 266 00:12:52,628 --> 00:12:54,908 Speaker 1: you know, Steph Curry did it on Opening Night. It's 267 00:12:54,908 --> 00:12:57,748 Speaker 1: good to keep on having this conversation going. It's an atrocity. 268 00:12:57,868 --> 00:12:59,468 Speaker 1: And thank you for spending the time to do it. 269 00:12:59,468 --> 00:13:01,588 Speaker 1: Thanks Peter. I can't believe every time I seen the headlines, 270 00:13:01,588 --> 00:13:03,268 Speaker 1: I said, this is still real, this is still going on. 271 00:13:03,548 --> 00:13:05,588 Speaker 1: It can't be real. It is real. It's happening, and 272 00:13:05,628 --> 00:13:08,108 Speaker 1: there's no end in sight. And you're right, Jamie, you're 273 00:13:08,108 --> 00:13:10,028 Speaker 1: all over. It's a great choice. Thank you. All right, 274 00:13:10,028 --> 00:13:12,268 Speaker 1: we got more Good Morning football coming our way again. 275 00:13:12,308 --> 00:13:15,228 Speaker 1: A guest keep rolling in, but Brittany Griner keep saying 276 00:13:15,228 --> 00:13:30,668 Speaker 1: her name to a little bit. Rookie Seahawks running back 277 00:13:30,788 --> 00:13:33,708 Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker helped Seattle run the Chargers out of their 278 00:13:33,708 --> 00:13:36,468 Speaker 1: own gym last week. Seriously. Walker around for one hundred 279 00:13:36,468 --> 00:13:39,348 Speaker 1: and sixty eight yards two touchdowns as the Seahawks ran 280 00:13:39,428 --> 00:13:41,428 Speaker 1: away thirty seven to twenty three on the way to 281 00:13:41,468 --> 00:13:45,228 Speaker 1: a four and three record. The Munich crowd is going 282 00:13:45,308 --> 00:13:48,428 Speaker 1: to love watching Kenneth Walker run in a couple of 283 00:13:48,508 --> 00:13:52,028 Speaker 1: weeks in person. This week, the Seahawks host Sepon Barkley 284 00:13:52,068 --> 00:13:54,548 Speaker 1: and the six and one Giants in the Pacific Northwest. 285 00:13:54,748 --> 00:13:56,268 Speaker 1: We purposely didn't pick that as one of our games 286 00:13:56,268 --> 00:13:57,788 Speaker 1: because we knew were going to talk about this, But 287 00:13:57,828 --> 00:14:00,668 Speaker 1: this is an awesome one too. Seven weeks in which team, 288 00:14:00,788 --> 00:14:03,308 Speaker 1: to you guys, has been the bigger surprise, the Giants 289 00:14:03,468 --> 00:14:06,188 Speaker 1: or the Seahawks. Oh, They've both been so good and 290 00:14:06,228 --> 00:14:09,348 Speaker 1: so surprising. But for me, I'm going with the Seattle Seahawks. 291 00:14:09,708 --> 00:14:12,428 Speaker 1: In the offseason, we talked about as Geno Smith versus 292 00:14:12,508 --> 00:14:16,668 Speaker 1: Drew Locke, a quarterback competition that we all love to see. 293 00:14:17,028 --> 00:14:19,268 Speaker 1: I wasn't one of those that love to see. As 294 00:14:19,268 --> 00:14:21,788 Speaker 1: we look at I talked about this in the summer. 295 00:14:21,788 --> 00:14:23,948 Speaker 1: You look at their win loss and what they both 296 00:14:23,948 --> 00:14:26,388 Speaker 1: had done throughout their career and reminded me of two 297 00:14:26,788 --> 00:14:29,348 Speaker 1: and seventeen. I was in Cleveland. There was a quarterback 298 00:14:29,388 --> 00:14:33,588 Speaker 1: battle going on. Brock Oswald, Cody Kestons, the shan Kaiser. 299 00:14:33,948 --> 00:14:36,348 Speaker 1: There was so much media Cup. No, there wasn't nobody 300 00:14:36,428 --> 00:14:39,668 Speaker 1: really cared about that quarterback competition. And I thought the 301 00:14:39,708 --> 00:14:42,908 Speaker 1: same for Seattle, and then this season started, because you 302 00:14:42,908 --> 00:14:46,788 Speaker 1: remember the preseason game Seattle Chicago was just like nav 303 00:14:47,988 --> 00:14:50,028 Speaker 1: It's like Drew Locke has COVID when he comes back, 304 00:14:50,068 --> 00:14:52,548 Speaker 1: will finally get to see him with the starters, and 305 00:14:52,588 --> 00:14:55,388 Speaker 1: then he kind of lost his kind of touching. Gino 306 00:14:55,468 --> 00:14:58,788 Speaker 1: takes over the season starts. But my goodness, Gino has 307 00:14:58,828 --> 00:15:03,148 Speaker 1: just been incredible. Jamie shol during this past week, him 308 00:15:03,148 --> 00:15:05,428 Speaker 1: and Pete Carroll's exchange where he just kind of calms 309 00:15:05,468 --> 00:15:08,108 Speaker 1: them and Gino goes in there and just continues to 310 00:15:08,188 --> 00:15:11,628 Speaker 1: make plays. Guy has won four games. He's doing a 311 00:15:11,668 --> 00:15:16,068 Speaker 1: great job. Leaves the league in completion percentage eleven passing 312 00:15:16,148 --> 00:15:19,388 Speaker 1: touchdowns first in the NFC. Has passer rating one or 313 00:15:19,428 --> 00:15:22,788 Speaker 1: seven points, first in the NFC. Geno is going to 314 00:15:22,868 --> 00:15:25,748 Speaker 1: be a pro bowler this year, probably the starter in 315 00:15:25,788 --> 00:15:29,908 Speaker 1: the NFC so far this season. Right, Yes, it's been 316 00:15:29,948 --> 00:15:33,188 Speaker 1: it's been incredible. It's it's been a pleasant surprise. You guys, know, 317 00:15:33,308 --> 00:15:35,708 Speaker 1: like you get married, your wife tells you how awesome 318 00:15:35,708 --> 00:15:37,868 Speaker 1: it is to get a pedicure.

The Seahawks were gliding, and then apparently they 335 00:16:25,548 --> 00:16:28,548 Speaker 1: were supposed to nose dive because they traded their quarterback 336 00:16:28,588 --> 00:16:30,548 Speaker 1: away and they were like, how could they climb out 337 00:16:30,588 --> 00:16:32,428 Speaker 1: of the basement? Who was going to throw to their 338 00:16:32,468 --> 00:16:36,228 Speaker 1: star wide receivers? Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf. They were 339 00:16:36,668 --> 00:16:40,228 Speaker 1: playing amazingly with Russell Wilson and then you just give 340 00:16:40,228 --> 00:16:42,188 Speaker 1: away the guy that was strowing on the ball. Their 341 00:16:42,268 --> 00:16:45,388 Speaker 1: rankings for wide receivers in the league were fantastic over 342 00:16:45,428 --> 00:16:48,228 Speaker 1: the last two seasons. How could you ever replace an 343 00:16:48,268 --> 00:16:51,348 Speaker 1: offense that was operating at a pretty good clip over 344 00:16:51,388 --> 00:16:55,108 Speaker 1: the last two seasons. Well, to Jason's point, Q genots 345 00:16:55,148 --> 00:16:59,428 Speaker 1: fit a thousand yards receiving. These two were on pace 346 00:16:59,548 --> 00:17:02,508 Speaker 1: for this season this season alone. DK Metcalf is injured 347 00:17:02,588 --> 00:17:05,788 Speaker 1: right now, but Lockett's gonna pick it up this. I 348 00:17:05,908 --> 00:17:09,228 Speaker 1: just I love the setup that Peak Carroll has here 349 00:17:09,228 --> 00:17:12,828 Speaker 1: in Seattle. He knew what he was doing the whole time. Jason, 350 00:17:12,868 --> 00:17:14,748 Speaker 1: I have this little going of in coaches we trust. 351 00:17:14,788 --> 00:17:16,148 Speaker 1: I think we would need to put Peak Carroll on 352 00:17:16,148 --> 00:17:18,468 Speaker 1: that list. Now. Seahawks, they're the biggest surprise to me. 353 00:17:18,748 --> 00:17:21,348 Speaker 1: I've seen teams do what the Seahawks are doing. And 354 00:17:21,428 --> 00:17:23,388 Speaker 1: what I mean by that, I mean like a bunch 355 00:17:23,388 --> 00:17:25,828 Speaker 1: of rookies all awesome with a great I saw the 356 00:17:25,908 --> 00:17:29,148 Speaker 1: twenty twelve Seahawks Russell Wilson at quarterback and Bobby Wagner 357 00:17:29,188 --> 00:17:32,548 Speaker 1: at linebacker and Bruce Ervan and Robert Turbin like that 358 00:17:32,628 --> 00:17:34,628 Speaker 1: draft class was in it. I've seen the Colts in 359 00:17:34,708 --> 00:17:37,068 Speaker 1: like year two with Manning and Harrison at edge, Like 360 00:17:37,228 --> 00:17:39,588 Speaker 1: I don't have a record of a team like the 361 00:17:39,708 --> 00:17:44,428 Speaker 1: Giants where you've seen these guys all together for five four, 362 00:17:44,828 --> 00:17:46,748 Speaker 1: three years and its stunk, and then all of a 363 00:17:46,748 --> 00:17:48,908 Speaker 1: sudden and year like five, it clicks, Like what do 364 00:17:48,908 --> 00:17:51,228 Speaker 1: I mean by that? The roster, it's got a lot 365 00:17:51,268 --> 00:17:55,108 Speaker 1: of guys who you're familiar with, and all of these 366 00:17:55,148 --> 00:17:58,348 Speaker 1: guys in the final years of their contract. Daniel Jones 367 00:17:58,348 --> 00:18:00,188 Speaker 1: I thought he was a lame duck quarterback. Sa Quan 368 00:18:00,268 --> 00:18:01,788 Speaker 1: I thought that, you know, that's probably it for sa 369 00:18:01,868 --> 00:18:04,348 Speaker 1: Quana in New York unless he does something spectacular. Sterling 370 00:18:04,388 --> 00:18:06,308 Speaker 1: Shepherd has already gotten one big contract. Is he really 371 00:18:06,308 --> 00:18:08,548 Speaker 1: got another? Let's see how the season goes. Slayton, I 372 00:18:08,588 --> 00:18:12,268 Speaker 1: don't even know if Slayton's even mentioned all preseason. Feliciano 373 00:18:12,388 --> 00:18:15,788 Speaker 1: and Love have been outstanding. Both these guys final years 374 00:18:15,788 --> 00:18:19,228 Speaker 1: of their deals. This Giants team, I thought this was 375 00:18:19,308 --> 00:18:22,068 Speaker 1: new coach, new GM Let's just finish out these contracts 376 00:18:22,108 --> 00:18:24,508 Speaker 1: and start a new next year. When the salary cap 377 00:18:24,548 --> 00:18:27,508 Speaker 1: gets kind of handled. I didn't expect this in a 378 00:18:27,628 --> 00:18:30,308 Speaker 1: million years. I didn't expect this. I don't know if 379 00:18:30,308 --> 00:18:33,788 Speaker 1: Brian Davel or Joe Shane expected this. And you know what, 380 00:18:34,148 --> 00:18:36,708 Speaker 1: it's a great story because all of these guys have 381 00:18:36,828 --> 00:18:39,028 Speaker 1: been counted out. All of these guys, you know, say, 382 00:18:39,108 --> 00:18:41,108 Speaker 1: Quon could have signed an extension, they didn't offer him one. 383 00:18:41,348 --> 00:18:43,508 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones is fit their option could have The Giants 384 00:18:43,508 --> 00:18:44,748 Speaker 1: could save a lot of money if they had picked 385 00:18:44,788 --> 00:18:46,588 Speaker 1: up his fit their option. Now they got to sign 386 00:18:46,668 --> 00:18:48,028 Speaker 1: them next year if they want to keep him for 387 00:18:48,028 --> 00:18:50,868 Speaker 1: real money. I think the Seahawks story is awesome and 388 00:18:50,948 --> 00:18:54,628 Speaker 1: it's fresh and it's young. The Giants story is like 389 00:18:55,268 --> 00:18:58,108 Speaker 1: a lame duck president in his final year, like you know, 390 00:18:58,188 --> 00:19:04,188 Speaker 1: totally changed the world. It's the mid term elections. Go vote. 391 00:19:04,828 --> 00:19:08,068 Speaker 1: I honestly, I followed the league as close as anyone. 392 00:19:08,068 --> 00:19:10,308 Speaker 1: I followed the Giants because this one caught me by surprise, 393 00:19:10,348 --> 00:19:12,108 Speaker 1: and I couldn't be happier to see it happened in 394 00:19:12,108 --> 00:19:14,788 Speaker 1: our backyard. Daniel Jones NFC Offensive Player of the Week. 395 00:19:14,788 --> 00:19:17,948 Speaker 1: I tell something, fourth quarter he didn't complete a single 396 00:19:18,068 --> 00:19:20,468 Speaker 1: pass in that game? Really, when, oh, for one, they 397 00:19:20,508 --> 00:19:23,668 Speaker 1: attempted one. That's the way they're winning right now. Daniel 398 00:19:23,748 --> 00:19:26,228 Speaker 1: Jones to be this guy that you talked about Gino 399 00:19:26,308 --> 00:19:27,788 Speaker 1: in the Pro Bowl, Daniel Jones and the Pro Bowl 400 00:19:27,788 --> 00:19:31,308 Speaker 1: too well, I think actually the Giants too. The Giants 401 00:19:31,308 --> 00:19:33,588 Speaker 1: are starting to mess with my life personally. And let 402 00:19:33,588 --> 00:19:35,548 Speaker 1: me tell you why. I've told you guys this before. 403 00:19:35,748 --> 00:19:37,868 Speaker 1: So I live about an hour from here where we 404 00:19:37,908 --> 00:19:40,148 Speaker 1: are in Manhattan. I live in basically what equates to 405 00:19:40,228 --> 00:19:42,428 Speaker 1: the North suburbs of New York City. I am just 406 00:19:42,668 --> 00:19:46,348 Speaker 1: every dude, every dad that I ever socialized with, coach 407 00:19:46,388 --> 00:19:49,468 Speaker 1: against seat. They're Giants fans, they love their Giants, and 408 00:19:49,508 --> 00:19:51,548 Speaker 1: they're born in Jersey, New York or whatever. These guys 409 00:19:51,548 --> 00:19:54,388 Speaker 1: are all like finance guys. They all kill it like 410 00:19:54,468 --> 00:19:57,908 Speaker 1: I am the one dude at the backyard party who's 411 00:19:57,948 --> 00:20:01,788 Speaker 1: not in finance. So I'm the football guy. I'm awesome, 412 00:20:01,908 --> 00:20:04,228 Speaker 1: Like I'm like, oh, dude, you work for football. So 413 00:20:04,428 --> 00:20:06,188 Speaker 1: all these guys have been miserable for years because the 414 00:20:06,188 --> 00:20:08,348 Speaker 1: Giants have been terrible, or because of the finance jobs 415 00:20:08,908 --> 00:20:11,468 Speaker 1: a little bit of bold. So now, in a way, 416 00:20:11,508 --> 00:20:13,668 Speaker 1: I think at least one of them's back. But when 417 00:20:13,708 --> 00:20:16,108 Speaker 1: we go to like, you know, whether it's the ironic 418 00:20:16,188 --> 00:20:19,468 Speaker 1: kickball game or the kid's birthday party. These dudes come 419 00:20:19,548 --> 00:20:21,948 Speaker 1: up to me and they got their Patagonias and they 420 00:20:21,988 --> 00:20:24,628 Speaker 1: get the kids out of the tesla's and it's and 421 00:20:24,668 --> 00:20:27,028 Speaker 1: they say so man, like the Giants are awesome, Like 422 00:20:27,148 --> 00:20:29,948 Speaker 1: how are they doing this? And I'm like, what's that 423 00:20:29,988 --> 00:20:31,308 Speaker 1: over there? And I run and go to the bar. 424 00:20:31,428 --> 00:20:34,948 Speaker 1: I don't know because all I can muster is that coach, Man, 425 00:20:35,068 --> 00:20:37,108 Speaker 1: he makes a difference. They're like, yeah, the coach, but 426 00:20:37,148 --> 00:20:39,828 Speaker 1: like the players. So this is what I would submit. 427 00:20:39,948 --> 00:20:42,028 Speaker 1: This is why the Giants is so surprising. Dania Jones 428 00:20:42,188 --> 00:20:44,268 Speaker 1: NFC Offensive Player of the Week six and one record. 429 00:20:44,348 --> 00:20:46,428 Speaker 1: Can we look in the year twenty twenty two and 430 00:20:46,508 --> 00:20:49,628 Speaker 1: the era of passing? The statistics? These are the leading 431 00:20:49,628 --> 00:20:52,148 Speaker 1: wide receivers for your six and one team in twenty 432 00:20:52,228 --> 00:20:56,308 Speaker 1: twenty two. Peter take us through this list. Richie Ritchie 433 00:20:56,388 --> 00:20:58,228 Speaker 1: James is leading the league and leading the team with 434 00:20:58,428 --> 00:21:02,108 Speaker 1: twenty through seven games. Yes, and then we got David Sills, 435 00:21:02,188 --> 00:21:05,108 Speaker 1: the fifth Marcus Johnson. I don't know who that is. 436 00:21:05,148 --> 00:21:08,388 Speaker 1: It sounds like a fake player. Five catches for sixty yards. Jamie, 437 00:21:08,388 --> 00:21:10,788 Speaker 1: what you godowns on that list, two touchdowns on the 438 00:21:10,828 --> 00:21:13,508 Speaker 1: whole damn list listen leading wide receivers in a six 439 00:21:13,548 --> 00:21:15,428 Speaker 1: one team in twenty twenty two. So, in other words, 440 00:21:15,468 --> 00:21:19,708 Speaker 1: when I'm sure Rondel, Richie James Junior's, I gotta say 441 00:21:19,748 --> 00:21:22,028 Speaker 1: it again, I gotta go to these people say it again. 442 00:21:22,068 --> 00:21:26,108 Speaker 1: What is it? Richard Rondell, Richie James Junior out of Sarasota, Florida, 443 00:21:26,148 --> 00:21:28,948 Speaker 1: of course, Middle Tennessee. I don't know that guy. I'm 444 00:21:28,988 --> 00:21:31,548 Speaker 1: not I'm not number one receiver. Yeah. So when these 445 00:21:31,548 --> 00:21:33,908 Speaker 1: guys come to me and say, you make your living 446 00:21:33,988 --> 00:21:36,948 Speaker 1: doing the NFL, I can talk about finance all day. 447 00:21:37,068 --> 00:21:38,988 Speaker 1: Tell me about the Giants. I'm going to them with 448 00:21:39,028 --> 00:21:41,508 Speaker 1: Wandale Robinson. It's like the worst stock tip of all time. 449 00:21:41,908 --> 00:21:45,268 Speaker 1: I look incompetent in my job. So that's why they're 450 00:21:45,268 --> 00:21:47,028 Speaker 1: the biggest surprised Seahawks. I can point to why they're 451 00:21:47,028 --> 00:21:48,548 Speaker 1: doing They gotta have a great old veteran coach, and 452 00:21:48,628 --> 00:21:50,588 Speaker 1: Gino's better than every there. I don't know how the 453 00:21:50,588 --> 00:21:52,188 Speaker 1: Giants are doing it still, and they're not three and 454 00:21:52,228 --> 00:21:54,788 Speaker 1: one guys, they're not four, they're six and one. And 455 00:21:54,828 --> 00:21:57,188 Speaker 1: I look like a schmuk in the backyard Party. I 456 00:21:57,228 --> 00:21:59,988 Speaker 1: do the Brian Dable argument though, like that is kind 457 00:21:59,988 --> 00:22:01,948 Speaker 1: of a grenade. You could just be like Brian Dabele's 458 00:22:01,948 --> 00:22:03,828 Speaker 1: great and like toss it up as a conversation, Whitten 459 00:22:03,868 --> 00:22:05,988 Speaker 1: and get out of it, you know, like people could 460 00:22:06,028 --> 00:22:08,468 Speaker 1: go on and on about Bran Yeah, yeah, whatever. Keeps 461 00:22:08,508 --> 00:22:10,068 Speaker 1: it away from the politics talk because that comes up 462 00:22:10,068 --> 00:22:14,188 Speaker 1: too better than the COVID talk and I'd rather have 463 00:22:14,268 --> 00:22:17,948 Speaker 1: the politics. Oh what a sad life you live. You're 464 00:22:17,948 --> 00:22:20,108 Speaker 1: getting approached to a part of childbirth. They heard about 465 00:22:20,108 --> 00:22:23,948 Speaker 1: the New York John's Church. Exactly, all right. Mike Gara follows, 466 00:22:24,028 --> 00:22:26,108 Speaker 1: joining us now our NFL network insider, Mike, there's some 467 00:22:26,188 --> 00:22:29,148 Speaker 1: news coming out of Kansas City regarding Frank Clark. What 468 00:22:29,188 --> 00:22:32,628 Speaker 1: do you got, Yes, Frank Clark was suspended two games 469 00:22:32,628 --> 00:22:36,788 Speaker 1: by the NFL related to two arrests last year for 470 00:22:37,188 --> 00:22:39,908 Speaker 1: weapons charges. One time he was driving in a car 471 00:22:40,028 --> 00:22:42,268 Speaker 1: last March with a no license, played in the car 472 00:22:42,308 --> 00:22:44,308 Speaker 1: with another gentleman. There were two firearms in the car. 473 00:22:44,348 --> 00:22:46,308 Speaker 1: He was then stopped three months later and there was 474 00:22:46,348 --> 00:22:49,148 Speaker 1: a firearm in that car as well. He pled no 475 00:22:49,268 --> 00:22:52,468 Speaker 1: contest back in September, so with the legal situation resolved, 476 00:22:52,548 --> 00:22:56,028 Speaker 1: Clark was suspended yesterday by the NFL for two games. 477 00:22:56,188 --> 00:22:58,028 Speaker 1: The Chiefs currently on a buy, but then they will 478 00:22:58,068 --> 00:23:00,828 Speaker 1: miss two AFC South games. I believe it's the Titans 479 00:23:00,828 --> 00:23:02,948 Speaker 1: and the Jaguars that they have the two weeks after 480 00:23:02,988 --> 00:23:05,508 Speaker 1: the buy at home. So rook, George Karloff, this is 481 00:23:05,588 --> 00:23:07,828 Speaker 1: gonna have to step up. Carlos Dunlap and a bunch 482 00:23:07,828 --> 00:23:09,308 Speaker 1: of other folks are gonna have to step up to 483 00:23:09,308 --> 00:23:11,468 Speaker 1: fill the void created by the loss of Frank Clark 484 00:23:11,668 --> 00:23:14,588 Speaker 1: for two games. Mike, love seeing you on the show. 485 00:23:14,628 --> 00:23:16,708 Speaker 1: And you know, Chiefs fans are like first Willie Gay 486 00:23:16,708 --> 00:23:19,708 Speaker 1: and now Frank Clark. This is the NFL. The trade 487 00:23:19,748 --> 00:23:22,948 Speaker 1: deadline is also fast approaching. This is fun, This is fodder. 488 00:23:22,988 --> 00:23:24,508 Speaker 1: This is for the fans at home. I'm gonna just 489 00:23:24,588 --> 00:23:27,108 Speaker 1: toss you the ball. Give us a few names that 490 00:23:27,188 --> 00:23:30,508 Speaker 1: could potentially be on the block. The most interesting to me, Peter, 491 00:23:30,828 --> 00:23:33,508 Speaker 1: is staying in the AFC West. It's the Denver Broncos 492 00:23:33,508 --> 00:23:35,868 Speaker 1: because this season has not gone as many hoped, and 493 00:23:35,908 --> 00:23:38,308 Speaker 1: you're looking at a team with two thirds, a fourth 494 00:23:38,348 --> 00:23:41,388 Speaker 1: and fifth, sixth I believe is all they have draft wise, 495 00:23:41,508 --> 00:23:43,788 Speaker 1: next year and a general manager looking at a bunch 496 00:23:43,828 --> 00:23:46,508 Speaker 1: of players that he did not draft that could fill 497 00:23:46,628 --> 00:23:49,108 Speaker 1: needs for other teams and in some cases up potentially 498 00:23:49,108 --> 00:23:51,668 Speaker 1: for a new contract and in in their future. So google 499 00:23:51,748 --> 00:23:55,308 Speaker 1: Broncos trade deadline and you'll see the names. Bradley Chubb mentioned, 500 00:23:55,388 --> 00:23:59,148 Speaker 1: kJ Hamler mentioned, Jerry Judy, Melvin Gordon. Yeah. I see 501 00:23:59,188 --> 00:24:02,268 Speaker 1: this team as potential sellers over the next couple of 502 00:24:02,348 --> 00:24:04,948 Speaker 1: days here, and teams have already called them to inquire. 503 00:24:04,948 --> 00:24:06,908 Speaker 1: It's about the possibility of trading for these guys. So 504 00:24:07,028 --> 00:24:09,148 Speaker 1: keep an ear out for all those names. Judy is 505 00:24:09,148 --> 00:24:11,308 Speaker 1: the big one because that's so is Chubb. But but 506 00:24:11,388 --> 00:24:14,108 Speaker 1: Judy a former first round pick who really has not 507 00:24:14,268 --> 00:24:16,748 Speaker 1: flourished the way that they had hoped in Denver. And 508 00:24:16,908 --> 00:24:19,188 Speaker 1: I'm still looking at the receiver position for a couple 509 00:24:19,268 --> 00:24:21,668 Speaker 1: other guys with a few other teams. Ian Rappaport mentioned 510 00:24:21,668 --> 00:24:23,548 Speaker 1: them the other day. You're looking at Brandon Cooks and 511 00:24:23,668 --> 00:24:26,028 Speaker 1: Chase Claypole as well. Cooks, if he's traded, it would 512 00:24:26,028 --> 00:24:28,588 Speaker 1: be the fourth time, which would tie Eric Dickerson for 513 00:24:28,628 --> 00:24:31,788 Speaker 1: the most in NFL history. A really interesting guy because 514 00:24:32,068 --> 00:24:34,508 Speaker 1: he's not a bad person. It's not like you usually 515 00:24:34,508 --> 00:24:36,188 Speaker 1: see a guy get traded a bunch of like, oh, 516 00:24:36,228 --> 00:24:38,788 Speaker 1: that guy must be a distraction. Not the case with 517 00:24:38,908 --> 00:24:41,588 Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks. In fact, when the teams have traded him, 518 00:24:41,908 --> 00:24:44,388 Speaker 1: I've heard they have then been like, ah, we wish 519 00:24:44,388 --> 00:24:47,108 Speaker 1: we had that guy back, and in some cases tried 520 00:24:47,468 --> 00:24:49,748 Speaker 1: to get him back. So Brandon Cook's a guy who 521 00:24:49,788 --> 00:24:52,268 Speaker 1: could be a vertical threat for some teams that could 522 00:24:52,268 --> 00:24:54,468 Speaker 1: potentially need it. So we'll keep an eye on him 523 00:24:54,468 --> 00:24:57,788 Speaker 1: being potentially moved from Houston. As for Claypole, he's a 524 00:24:57,908 --> 00:25:00,388 Speaker 1: different guys and more of a bigger body type guy. 525 00:25:00,628 --> 00:25:03,108 Speaker 1: I know the Pittsburgh Steelers extremely value him, so it 526 00:25:03,108 --> 00:25:04,548 Speaker 1: sounds like if you're going to get him a away 527 00:25:04,548 --> 00:25:06,428 Speaker 1: from Pittsburgh, you're gonna have to come with a nice 528 00:25:06,428 --> 00:25:10,908 Speaker 1: compensation package. Yeah, Chase Claypool could be a great offensive edition. 529 00:25:10,948 --> 00:25:13,348 Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks is a beloved guy both on the field 530 00:25:13,348 --> 00:25:14,908 Speaker 1: and in the locker room, no matter which team he 531 00:25:14,948 --> 00:25:16,748 Speaker 1: has played for, so that will also be a huge 532 00:25:16,748 --> 00:25:20,388 Speaker 1: bonus if Cooks goes elsewhere. Mike Garifolo, You're always a bonus. 533 00:25:20,428 --> 00:25:22,548 Speaker 1: Thank you very much. My friends coming up on Good 534 00:25:22,548 --> 00:25:26,588 Speaker 1: Morning Football, fine, I'll do the teas on the Vikings legend, 535 00:25:26,868 --> 00:25:29,708 Speaker 1: one of the best pass rushers in NFL history. Jared Allen. 536 00:25:29,748 --> 00:25:31,788 Speaker 1: I know he played for other show, other teams, all right, 537 00:25:31,868 --> 00:25:34,148 Speaker 1: but like they had to roll with the Vikings per 538 00:25:34,148 --> 00:25:39,228 Speaker 1: Bowl the teas. But Jared Allen's joining the show heard 539 00:25:39,268 --> 00:25:56,588 Speaker 1: that her next guest is one of the greatest pass 540 00:25:56,708 --> 00:25:59,188 Speaker 1: rushers in NFL history. He's a four time All Pro, 541 00:25:59,348 --> 00:26:02,428 Speaker 1: five time Pro bowler, and had seven straight seasons with 542 00:26:02,508 --> 00:26:05,228 Speaker 1: double digit sacks and is the fifth fastest ever to 543 00:26:05,348 --> 00:26:08,388 Speaker 1: one hundred sex Please welcome demand the Myth, the Legend 544 00:26:08,508 --> 00:26:14,628 Speaker 1: Jared out. Yeah, I appreciate you guys having me this morning. 545 00:26:14,868 --> 00:26:18,228 Speaker 1: Good morning, Jared, this Sunday, this weekend. You are returning 546 00:26:18,228 --> 00:26:21,468 Speaker 1: to Minnesota or you played for six seasons, you were 547 00:26:21,508 --> 00:26:23,988 Speaker 1: beloved amongst Vikings fans, and now you are going to 548 00:26:24,028 --> 00:26:26,828 Speaker 1: be inducted into their Ring of Honor. Looking back at 549 00:26:26,828 --> 00:26:28,708 Speaker 1: your career, your time in Minnesota, what are you gonna 550 00:26:28,708 --> 00:26:31,708 Speaker 1: remember most? Oh, probably the relationships obviously, I mean we 551 00:26:31,748 --> 00:26:34,108 Speaker 1: had so many great games, but just the relationships formed 552 00:26:34,188 --> 00:26:37,428 Speaker 1: with our teammates and and you know, the management that's 553 00:26:37,468 --> 00:26:40,028 Speaker 1: still there, and and you know, guys aren't there still. 554 00:26:40,628 --> 00:26:42,308 Speaker 1: So I think it's just you know, it's kind of 555 00:26:42,348 --> 00:26:45,748 Speaker 1: a culmination of all the good times, all the bad times, 556 00:26:45,748 --> 00:26:48,148 Speaker 1: and uh, you know it was a good six year run, 557 00:26:48,228 --> 00:26:50,468 Speaker 1: so I think it all all plays in. But you know, 558 00:26:50,668 --> 00:26:55,548 Speaker 1: the relationships really would bring back those memories and spark moments. Yeah, 559 00:26:55,548 --> 00:26:58,908 Speaker 1: they're huge, Jared, you are a superstar. There so many 560 00:26:58,948 --> 00:27:01,748 Speaker 1: moments to celebrate. There's a young star there now and 561 00:27:01,868 --> 00:27:04,708 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson and he celebrates with the gritty and you 562 00:27:04,708 --> 00:27:07,148 Speaker 1: see it kind of taking over when you were there, 563 00:27:07,228 --> 00:27:10,348 Speaker 1: you were doing the Wrangler. Can't give us a story behind. 564 00:27:10,388 --> 00:27:12,468 Speaker 1: And I hear your kids are now, they're up to 565 00:27:12,508 --> 00:27:14,748 Speaker 1: speed on what it is. Yeah, which, by the way, 566 00:27:14,948 --> 00:27:17,268 Speaker 1: no one's ever named it. So hey, well you got 567 00:27:17,308 --> 00:27:20,468 Speaker 1: a patting Matt right there patting it up. So you 568 00:27:20,508 --> 00:27:22,308 Speaker 1: know what I was just saying to you guys a 569 00:27:22,348 --> 00:27:24,108 Speaker 1: little bit before. I was telling my kids before my 570 00:27:24,228 --> 00:27:25,948 Speaker 1: team my second year, when he came up to do this, 571 00:27:26,748 --> 00:27:28,788 Speaker 1: the Vets just used to tell me le specially my rookie. 572 00:27:28,828 --> 00:27:30,708 Speaker 1: You're like, hey, I want to see lawnmower this weekend. 573 00:27:31,108 --> 00:27:33,708 Speaker 1: I want to see spirit fingers. Give me a high kick, 574 00:27:33,788 --> 00:27:35,748 Speaker 1: give me you know, they would just throw a nonsense out, 575 00:27:35,788 --> 00:27:38,268 Speaker 1: probably to embarrass me, and it was a good rookie. 576 00:27:38,308 --> 00:27:41,148 Speaker 1: I just did what I was told. And so Neil 577 00:27:41,268 --> 00:27:43,668 Speaker 1: Smith was being put inducted in the Ring of Honor 578 00:27:43,668 --> 00:27:45,788 Speaker 1: in Kansas City. We're playing the Chargers and I had 579 00:27:45,788 --> 00:27:48,748 Speaker 1: two sacks that game, and I did his celebration and 580 00:27:48,828 --> 00:27:50,668 Speaker 1: at dinner that we were having dinner that night together 581 00:27:51,188 --> 00:27:52,788 Speaker 1: and he was like, man, you just need to come 582 00:27:52,868 --> 00:27:54,828 Speaker 1: up with something that is you, Like, I appreciate you 583 00:27:54,868 --> 00:27:57,748 Speaker 1: so much. We're doing my celebration, like, you know, what 584 00:27:58,108 --> 00:28:00,468 Speaker 1: did you do growing up? What was What's something unique 585 00:28:00,468 --> 00:28:01,428 Speaker 1: to you? And I was like, well, you know what, 586 00:28:01,508 --> 00:28:03,308 Speaker 1: I used to calf rope, right, and I grew up 587 00:28:03,348 --> 00:28:05,548 Speaker 1: love washing calf rope and stuff like that. So I 588 00:28:05,828 --> 00:28:07,148 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, we're just gonna do it. So the 589 00:28:07,188 --> 00:28:09,148 Speaker 1: calf rope, and you know, you put the calf dad tied, 590 00:28:09,188 --> 00:28:10,748 Speaker 1: three legs up, put your hands up, and that's when 591 00:28:10,748 --> 00:28:13,308 Speaker 1: they stopped the clock. So just started doing that, stopping 592 00:28:13,308 --> 00:28:15,228 Speaker 1: the clock on quarterbacks, and it kind of stuck and 593 00:28:15,228 --> 00:28:16,988 Speaker 1: it became a thing, and then you know, we just 594 00:28:17,068 --> 00:28:19,148 Speaker 1: rode with it the rest of our career. You did, 595 00:28:19,348 --> 00:28:23,468 Speaker 1: and yet sometimes Jared, the calf just runs right out 596 00:28:23,468 --> 00:28:25,708 Speaker 1: of the pasture on its own. You were part of 597 00:28:25,708 --> 00:28:28,508 Speaker 1: a very infamous play that I know you're asked about 598 00:28:28,548 --> 00:28:31,788 Speaker 1: all the time. You share a history with Dan Orlovsky, 599 00:28:31,828 --> 00:28:34,268 Speaker 1: as we do on this program. It's Dan just run 600 00:28:34,268 --> 00:28:36,028 Speaker 1: the back of the end zone with number sixty nine 601 00:28:36,028 --> 00:28:37,708 Speaker 1: for the Vikings, chasing and being like, what the hell's 602 00:28:37,708 --> 00:28:40,988 Speaker 1: he doing? What do you remember about this play, Jared? 603 00:28:41,028 --> 00:28:43,988 Speaker 1: And how much are you asked about it all the 604 00:28:44,028 --> 00:28:46,228 Speaker 1: time all the time. And I gotta give him Dan credit, Man, 605 00:28:46,228 --> 00:28:48,988 Speaker 1: he's embraced it and stuff like that. I'm a little 606 00:28:49,028 --> 00:28:51,948 Speaker 1: like my first response was, why is this dude running 607 00:28:51,948 --> 00:28:53,588 Speaker 1: out the back of the end zone and not letting 608 00:28:53,588 --> 00:28:55,188 Speaker 1: me hit him in the back of the head because 609 00:28:55,188 --> 00:28:58,148 Speaker 1: it was, you know, great great rush. I was unfeathered 610 00:28:58,188 --> 00:29:00,828 Speaker 1: to the pass to the quarterback. Yeah, I was laughing 611 00:29:00,828 --> 00:29:02,948 Speaker 1: because I think Kevin Williams in this game, I think 612 00:29:03,028 --> 00:29:05,548 Speaker 1: he had like four sacks, and I was chasing Kevin 613 00:29:05,588 --> 00:29:07,908 Speaker 1: at this time, like, man, if I get beat, if 614 00:29:07,948 --> 00:29:09,228 Speaker 1: I get beat on my own team by a d 615 00:29:09,348 --> 00:29:12,588 Speaker 1: tackle for sacks, like that's not gonna be good. Especially 616 00:29:12,628 --> 00:29:14,108 Speaker 1: you know, he was two thousand and eight when I 617 00:29:14,148 --> 00:29:16,628 Speaker 1: first got there, so I was I was. I was laughing. 618 00:29:16,668 --> 00:29:18,228 Speaker 1: I knew the sack was Mike because I was the 619 00:29:18,228 --> 00:29:19,988 Speaker 1: closest to him. I knew it was a safety, which 620 00:29:19,988 --> 00:29:22,628 Speaker 1: I was super stoked about. I was dying laughing because 621 00:29:22,668 --> 00:29:24,668 Speaker 1: Kevin was obviously pissed off, and I just got a 622 00:29:24,708 --> 00:29:28,068 Speaker 1: sack for for not having to tackle anybody. So yeah, 623 00:29:28,108 --> 00:29:29,908 Speaker 1: it was the whole combination. And then I was like, man, 624 00:29:29,988 --> 00:29:31,708 Speaker 1: that was a great rush he had. He had no 625 00:29:31,708 --> 00:29:34,228 Speaker 1: clue that could have been a sack force fumble touchdown possibly. 626 00:29:34,348 --> 00:29:36,748 Speaker 1: So it's one of those plays that lives in, uh, 627 00:29:37,068 --> 00:29:39,748 Speaker 1: lives on forever. I guess it's infamous, more than famous, 628 00:29:39,988 --> 00:29:42,668 Speaker 1: but it's definitely something. I think it's funny, and you know, 629 00:29:42,908 --> 00:29:45,708 Speaker 1: now I believe or lastly, it's not the only one anymore, right, 630 00:29:45,788 --> 00:29:50,268 Speaker 1: I remember correctly. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think it was. Again, 631 00:29:50,268 --> 00:29:52,828 Speaker 1: it's like I'm on my other day, yeah, Garoppolo, Um, 632 00:29:53,588 --> 00:29:56,268 Speaker 1: I guess sometimes quarterback gets scared. I mean this thing, 633 00:29:56,348 --> 00:29:57,628 Speaker 1: I don't know why they would. You're not allowed to 634 00:29:57,668 --> 00:30:01,268 Speaker 1: hit him anymore, so I guess so it is what 635 00:30:01,348 --> 00:30:04,908 Speaker 1: it is, Jared. The League office just they're a flag 636 00:30:04,948 --> 00:30:13,268 Speaker 1: on you, saying, yeah, we're gonna find we're talking about 637 00:30:13,268 --> 00:30:18,588 Speaker 1: about it. Let's just bust chops on the company that 638 00:30:18,628 --> 00:30:24,508 Speaker 1: pays all our business. Let's talk about this current Vikings team. Yeah, 639 00:30:24,548 --> 00:30:27,628 Speaker 1: this is a team right now, five and one, all right, 640 00:30:27,748 --> 00:30:30,188 Speaker 1: second in the NFC, and yet we don't talk a 641 00:30:30,188 --> 00:30:33,148 Speaker 1: lot about the Vikings. We're not really doing the Vikings 642 00:30:33,148 --> 00:30:35,588 Speaker 1: thing like we are the Giants and the Seahawks this week. 643 00:30:35,708 --> 00:30:37,908 Speaker 1: Take us through that mentality when you're a team that 644 00:30:37,988 --> 00:30:40,308 Speaker 1: might be overlooked a little bit, and what that does 645 00:30:40,348 --> 00:30:43,028 Speaker 1: for a locker room, even when it's midway through the season. 646 00:30:43,308 --> 00:30:45,468 Speaker 1: I think it's great, right, I think, yeah, you're kind 647 00:30:45,508 --> 00:30:47,228 Speaker 1: of it's almost like a picture, you know, throwing a 648 00:30:47,308 --> 00:30:49,028 Speaker 1: no hitter. You don't want to you don't want to 649 00:30:49,028 --> 00:30:50,868 Speaker 1: mess with what you got going on. So I know, 650 00:30:50,868 --> 00:30:52,828 Speaker 1: if I was in that locker room, I'd be loving 651 00:30:52,828 --> 00:30:54,788 Speaker 1: the fact that no one's really talking about us. We 652 00:30:54,828 --> 00:30:56,988 Speaker 1: can just keep sliding on the radar and keep you know, 653 00:30:57,028 --> 00:31:00,268 Speaker 1: stacking winds. But I think the Vikings again, I'd be honest, 654 00:31:00,268 --> 00:31:01,828 Speaker 1: I'm a little shocked that where they're at. I mean, 655 00:31:02,148 --> 00:31:03,708 Speaker 1: that was that was a doubt or going into the 656 00:31:03,748 --> 00:31:05,708 Speaker 1: season that they were and to have such a turnaround, 657 00:31:05,708 --> 00:31:07,468 Speaker 1: you know, whenever you bring a new regime in and 658 00:31:07,988 --> 00:31:10,148 Speaker 1: a new style of defense is and and you know, 659 00:31:10,188 --> 00:31:11,788 Speaker 1: trying to acclimate that. But you know what, I got 660 00:31:11,788 --> 00:31:13,988 Speaker 1: to get up there and meet with the coaches and 661 00:31:13,988 --> 00:31:17,508 Speaker 1: and crazy, the DM and everybody. You really saw the 662 00:31:17,908 --> 00:31:20,668 Speaker 1: culture in the in the staff, right and and and 663 00:31:20,748 --> 00:31:23,708 Speaker 1: what they were trying to bring and how they you know, 664 00:31:24,068 --> 00:31:25,948 Speaker 1: their their managerent style, because I think that's really what 665 00:31:26,028 --> 00:31:27,468 Speaker 1: makes a great head coach at the end of the day. 666 00:31:27,508 --> 00:31:29,548 Speaker 1: You know, all coaches know exs and knows, but it's 667 00:31:29,788 --> 00:31:32,468 Speaker 1: it's how you manage your personality is and your egos 668 00:31:32,508 --> 00:31:34,268 Speaker 1: and your locker room that really is going to get 669 00:31:34,308 --> 00:31:36,268 Speaker 1: you know, the best out of you. And and they're 670 00:31:36,308 --> 00:31:39,388 Speaker 1: they're doing a great job. You know. Coachik of texting 671 00:31:39,428 --> 00:31:41,148 Speaker 1: with them the other day, just congratulate him on a 672 00:31:41,228 --> 00:31:44,148 Speaker 1: great start. And he mentioned something that these guys it's 673 00:31:44,188 --> 00:31:46,268 Speaker 1: not always perfect, but they find ways to win. And 674 00:31:46,308 --> 00:31:48,708 Speaker 1: that's a characteristic of a team. You can't create like 675 00:31:48,788 --> 00:31:50,948 Speaker 1: that's that's created within the locker room, right, a belief 676 00:31:50,988 --> 00:31:53,828 Speaker 1: system of finding ways to win, just because I mean, 677 00:31:53,868 --> 00:31:55,548 Speaker 1: losing can become a habit, just like winning can be 678 00:31:55,588 --> 00:31:57,428 Speaker 1: got a habit. So it seems like they got a 679 00:31:57,468 --> 00:31:59,588 Speaker 1: good culture shift and that the guy's bought it quickly 680 00:31:59,828 --> 00:32:02,268 Speaker 1: up there. And uh and they're they're they're playing great 681 00:32:02,308 --> 00:32:04,908 Speaker 1: right now. So yeah, but if I'm if, I'm if 682 00:32:04,908 --> 00:32:06,588 Speaker 1: I'm them, I'm trying to tell everybody to be quiet 683 00:32:06,588 --> 00:32:10,668 Speaker 1: and stop talking about us. Oh yeah, tered, you're absolutely right. 684 00:32:10,708 --> 00:32:12,908 Speaker 1: And before you go, you have such an incredible film 685 00:32:12,908 --> 00:32:16,148 Speaker 1: and television career. We've seen you on diners, drivings, and dives, 686 00:32:16,188 --> 00:32:19,068 Speaker 1: but more specifically the big screen. You were in Jackass 687 00:32:19,228 --> 00:32:24,028 Speaker 1: three D twelve years ago with the Legends, Steve O. Knoxville, 688 00:32:24,108 --> 00:32:28,188 Speaker 1: the rest of the crew. What was your Jackass experience? Like? Oh, amazing? 689 00:32:28,268 --> 00:32:29,868 Speaker 1: You know, I didn't know what to expect, right, I 690 00:32:29,908 --> 00:32:31,588 Speaker 1: was like, oh, this is gonna be some weird stuff 691 00:32:31,628 --> 00:32:34,308 Speaker 1: going on. I wore a cup just to make sure 692 00:32:34,348 --> 00:32:36,908 Speaker 1: I didn't get kicked in the junk for some reason. Yeah, 693 00:32:36,948 --> 00:32:39,508 Speaker 1: but uh, it was. It was great. The guys we 694 00:32:39,548 --> 00:32:41,588 Speaker 1: actually became good, good buzz. Like I still talked to 695 00:32:41,628 --> 00:32:44,708 Speaker 1: Knoxville today. We manned all those guys. They were in 696 00:32:45,308 --> 00:32:48,988 Speaker 1: such nice guys, you know, the late Ryan Dunn. Everybody 697 00:32:49,028 --> 00:32:51,628 Speaker 1: was so accommodating, so you know, just for now, but 698 00:32:51,668 --> 00:32:53,868 Speaker 1: they showed up at my foundation golf events for years 699 00:32:53,908 --> 00:32:57,988 Speaker 1: to come. Afterwards, Knoxville made my first daughter born in Minnesota, 700 00:32:58,148 --> 00:33:00,828 Speaker 1: like hand printed onesies that he ironed on. With all 701 00:33:00,868 --> 00:33:04,068 Speaker 1: these two. It just just great, great human beings and 702 00:33:04,428 --> 00:33:07,148 Speaker 1: off as nails. Because when we were doing that shoot, 703 00:33:07,228 --> 00:33:09,868 Speaker 1: you know, the first one coming across the middle, I 704 00:33:09,988 --> 00:33:11,748 Speaker 1: hit the living piss at him a couple of times 705 00:33:11,788 --> 00:33:14,548 Speaker 1: and he kept kind of, you know, shrinking a little bit. 706 00:33:14,548 --> 00:33:16,068 Speaker 1: And then they gave me a helmet form my big 707 00:33:16,068 --> 00:33:18,148 Speaker 1: five that I could bend. So I was a little 708 00:33:18,188 --> 00:33:20,588 Speaker 1: nervous that I was gonna get myself a concussion. So 709 00:33:20,668 --> 00:33:23,028 Speaker 1: finally they were like, oh, you just gotta light them up. 710 00:33:23,068 --> 00:33:25,628 Speaker 1: So anyway, they're they're tough as all can be, great 711 00:33:25,708 --> 00:33:28,308 Speaker 1: human beings, and man, it was a blast, and I 712 00:33:28,308 --> 00:33:30,388 Speaker 1: think I separated a sternom on that you know, shot 713 00:33:30,468 --> 00:33:32,708 Speaker 1: from behind, separated a sternhom It was all right. You 714 00:33:32,748 --> 00:33:34,748 Speaker 1: probably did worse to them though we had. Jared Allen, 715 00:33:34,788 --> 00:33:37,588 Speaker 1: you're an happy legend.
