In today's episode, the 10 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens versus the Denver Broncos on the NFL Kickoff 11 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: Week one, twenty thirteen, we got Peyton Manning. On today, 12 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: we got the sheriff. That's a big get. We got 13 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 1: my second favorite Manning in the world. Secondly, my second 14 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: favorite also, I guess actually I might even put him third. 15 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:10,119 Speaker 1: I might go Archie. Damn Archie. My dad loved Archie. 16 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,479 Speaker 1: Archie hasn't come on the show. No, he hasn't give paid. 17 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: But Archie didn't also knock Archie didn't knock me out 18 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: of it. Two ABC Championships, fair enough, you know that's 19 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:21,960 Speaker 1: but he but he gave birth to someone who did. 20 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: He he did, didn't give birth. That's not how bad 21 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: I'm stupid. It was his seed, it was the seed though, 22 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: it was his seed. But in Hin's site, you know, 23 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: Peyton Maning, he did take Wes Welker. That gave him 24 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: my opportunity. That opened things up for you, open things, 25 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: open things up. First thought, when you think of this game, 26 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: I think Peydon Manning through seven freaking touchdowns in a 27 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: game that's insane, and this set him off to set 28 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: the pace for him to break the single season touchdown 29 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: record fifty five fifty five. I mean, after watching this 30 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: game and seeing the weapons that Peyton Maning had, Julius 31 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: Thomas Wes Welker with his new edition that offseason, you 32 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: know you have Damerius Thomas Eric Decker, who's just like 33 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: have you ever seen Eric Decker?

I mean he's tall, he's dark, he's handsome, 38 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: he's got a receding hairline. He makes it look good. 39 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,079 Speaker 1: Look at him, Jesus, I like you threw a little 40 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: nag though at the end.

But back to our reactions, 45 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, when when you got those kind of weapons? Moreno, God, Well, 46 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: where do you rank this offense all time? I mean 47 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: Peyton had Edrin, James, Marvin Harrison, Reggie, Wayne, Brandon, Stokely, 48 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: Dallas Clark on that Colts team? Where do you rank 49 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: this all time? I mean the Brady twenty two thousand 50 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: and seven, twenty eighteen to one. I mean, you got 51 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 1: some of these chief teams that everyone keeps putting up there. 52 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: I mean it's hard because you got you got some 53 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 1: really good offenses out there.

Yeah, but you also know 295 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: with Peyton Manning, he's all about preparation. He's gonna get 296 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: his team in the right play and he's he's gonna 297 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: find a way to compete at a very high level, 298 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: which he did this year by setting the record fifty 299 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: five touchdown passes seven in a game.

What are some things that we've forgotten? You know, 311 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: the lightning delay to start the game, the Ravens having 312 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: a Joe Flacco banner in Mile High Stadium. Why are 313 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: they in? It's so weird. So that they had to 314 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 1: play because of the Baltimore Orioles having a home game 315 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: on this date, there was some mix up. They share 316 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 1: a parking lot, so the Ravens had to play in 317 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: Denver a home game. Yeah. I mean that's if I 318 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: just won a super Bowl and we got to start 319 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 1: the NFL season off on an away game. I would 320 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: have been pissed on a game that should have been 321 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: a home game.

I'm working on it all right, all right? 332 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I play through pain too. It's a 333 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: different type of pain, you know. You know, sometimes I 334 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: pap a muscle relaxer to do it. Sometimes I just 335 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,239 Speaker 1: you know, say I can fucking I'm gonna do it. 336 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: I can't do muscle relaxers. Why not. I don't know. 337 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: I just get I don't like them, really, I don't 338 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: like them.

And then 342 00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: we also the Elvis Dumerville off season facts gate, which 343 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: resulted in him leaving right Denver. Which could you imagine 344 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 1: if they had Dumerville and von Miller like going on 345 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: with these next couple of years, which I believe the 346 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 1: agent got fined. What are we doing? Agent? That's when 347 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: you're going to your agent? You fuck me? Yeah, because 348 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: you'd rather be I mean, you'd rather be on this 349 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 1: Denver team as a Yeah. I mean if you got 350 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: someone like von Miller on the other side, and you 351 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,919 Speaker 1: got Peyton Manning and the weapons that they had, yeah, 352 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's a complete football team. Yeah. Let's 353 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: get over to the gaming corner presented by win Bet. 354 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: Let's make our prop bet. What do we think? And 355 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,919 Speaker 1: I think, uh, how many times can we compliment Eli 356 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: Manning while talking to Peyton is a good one I'm 357 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: an I'm an Eli Manning guy. When it comes to 358 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: you know, Manning's let's just say that Eli is the man. 359 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: I'm already doing it. I'm getting warmed up. So what's 360 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 1: our over and under? Then? I think we can hit. 361 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: I think we could hit. So let's say five to five. 362 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 1: That's gonna be tough. You don't think we could do it. 363 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: We're gonna find out. Will we buckle under the pressure? 364 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: Looking in the eyes of the great Peyton Manning? Oh, 365 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: can we deliver and sing the praises of his brother NonStop? 366 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: Only time will tell, We'll say we will find out 367 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,919 Speaker 1: here on games with names presented by win Bet. But 368 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 1: all right, before we hear from Peyton, let's take a 369 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: quick little break, and now we are going to welcome 370 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 1: a man that doesn't need really any introduction. Legend of 371 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 1: the game, revolutionized the pre snap quarterback play, countless all pros, 372 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:50,360 Speaker 1: countless Pro Bowls, five time MVP, five time MVP, two 373 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: time Super Bowl champ with two different teams. Pretty insane, 374 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 1: Pretty crazy. We got Peyton Manning. Thank you for joining us, Bubs. Hey, Julian, 375 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,479 Speaker 1: thanks for having me. Thanks for not including my record 376 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 1: against the Patriots. And that bio. I appreciate you leaving 377 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: that part out, but it's great to be on with 378 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,479 Speaker 1: you guys. Peyton, I can't say anything to you. You 379 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: owned me and when you were in Denver and we're 380 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: here to talk about the Peyton seven when you opened 381 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: up the twenty thirteen season with seven touchdown passes against 382 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 1: the defending Super Bowl champions, which always insane to come 383 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 1: out firing hot like that. But I gotta open this 384 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: up by just letting everybody know. If you guys can see, 385 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 1: Peyton texts me. I haven't talked to him. Our booker 386 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 1: booked us together and everything. I gotta text him thanks 387 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 1: for coming on. But he sent me a book, literally, 388 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,879 Speaker 1: a book of notes of this game. And I'm sitting 389 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: here thinking like, is this what playing with Peyton would 390 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: have been like? Is that what it would have been like? 391 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: Just get these notes pre game on a Tuesday, going 392 00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: into Wednesday practice. Hey, I mean when you can't throw 393 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 1: very far, when you can't run it all Julian preparations 394 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: where you get an edge. So taking me back to 395 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 1: twenty thirteen, it's quite some time ago. So I had 396 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:13,959 Speaker 1: to do a little study in pregame scouting report if 397 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: you will. Peyden, if you think you can't throw far, 398 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: you should see me throw a football. It's pretty pathetic. 399 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: You can throw it pretty far. Well, I don't know. 400 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,239 Speaker 1: I mean Jullians a quarterback as well. He probably has 401 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: the best armor in the group right now. I don't 402 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: know Peyton. I changed the receiver for a reason. Let's 403 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 1: just say that now. A lot of people don't realize, 404 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 1: you know, when Peyton left the Colts, we were all 405 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: in fucking shock, like what's gonna happen is is he's hurt? 406 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 1: And the fact that like a folk hero like Peyton 407 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 1: Manny wasn't playing in a season like it was fucking 408 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: it was crazy. And then he goes in signs with Denver. 409 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: First year gets knocked out in the divisional round against 410 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 1: the defending or the Super Bowl champions of that year 411 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 1: of the Ravens, and then next year goes in gets 412 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: a couple key with Wes Welker. I have a real 413 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: quick question before we get into the game. How much 414 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: is Adam Gates giving you for all the head coaching 415 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: jobs that you've got him. I have not seen any 416 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: residuals yet, but uh uh, Adam was great for me. Uh, yeah, Julian. 417 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 1: It's funny. A lot of people wondered why I stayed 418 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: uh in the AFC after UH, you know, getting let 419 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 1: go by the Colts. You know, you're tired of play 420 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: in the Patriots in the playoffs, so you get tired 421 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: to play at Baltimore and Uh, I really feel like 422 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: that was the reason that I've stayed because I was 423 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: an AFC guy. I was familiar with those teams. Sure 424 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: we'd lost to him, but I missed the division. I 425 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 1: felt like to go to the UNFC, I probably would 426 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 1: have been out of my comfort zone. So I believe 427 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 1: it or not, the Patriots and Ravens were a big 428 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: part of probably why I chose Denver to stay in 429 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: the AFC and get into that. Now, when you signed 430 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: with Denver, did you come in with your scheme, your 431 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: system or very collaborative with that, like, hey, how do 432 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: we make you comfortable? Yeah, that's a great point, great question. Uh, 433 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: Denver was extremely collaborative, and you know, I was coming 434 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 1: off an injury, so I was spending a lot of 435 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: time on my rehab. I think to learn an entirely 436 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: new offense. I'm matrit. An article on Kirk cousins who's learning. 437 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: I want to say, like this third offense in the 438 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: past five years, but it's completely new offense. He said. 439 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 1: He feels like an eighth grader playing tackle football for 440 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: the first time. That is not a comfortable feeling as 441 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: a quarterback. So for me, Denver basically took my Colt's 442 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: playbook Julian and says, Peyton, we will put in all 443 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: the plays that you like. We'll put in your snapcout. 444 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 1: We'll call the formations the same way that you called 445 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: them with the Colts, but these are some plays that 446 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: we think will be good for you at this point 447 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: in your career. We'll form a hybrid offense and that 448 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: allowed us to get off to a fast start in 449 00:24:56,800 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: my first season in twenty twelve. Peyton, know, this is 450 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: like your comeback. You know, it was weird to see 451 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,159 Speaker 1: you not play for you then your back It's like 452 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 1: your Travolta pulp fiction Payton's back moment. You know, how 453 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: much pain were you? And I've had neck problems where 454 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: the doctor says I can't perform kind of lingus you're 455 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: playing football, you know, I mean, how how much pain 456 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 1: were you in week to week? Yeah? My pain really 457 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: started in twenty eleven, which forced me to have several 458 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: surgeries which forced me to miss the entire season. My 459 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: pain kind of went away after my surgeries. It was 460 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: just my strength and my weakness. You know. I had 461 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,399 Speaker 1: you know, essentially nerve damage in my right arm and 462 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 1: right hand, so I just couldn't function the way that 463 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: I used to and I kind of lost my grip. 464 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 1: I lost really my awareness of my arm in space 465 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: had appropriate reception issues. So listen, I've had this unbelievable 466 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 1: string of help my entire career, going back to high school, 467 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: college in the NFL. So missing that entire season was tough. 468 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I remember I was in a hospital bed 469 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: in California watching the Colts play their opening game against 470 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: the Texans, Carried Collins as the quarterback, and I don't 471 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 1: cry a lot, but I was emotional. I cried during 472 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: that game because because I wasn't out there the first 473 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: time I had been out there, and so that was tough. 474 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: Uh So to finally get back out of the field, 475 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 1: albeit with a new team, uh it was a It 476 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: was It was a very satisfying feeling, knowing all that 477 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,919 Speaker 1: I've been through to get back to that point. It's 478 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 1: weird when you're hurt the psyche that you have as 479 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: an athlete. It's kind of like you want your team 480 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: to do great, but you don't want them to do 481 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: too great. It's kind of like watching someone kiss your 482 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: wife or like, you know, take your wife on a date. 483 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: Some guys are in that. Some guys that's called the cuts, 484 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 1: it's called the true competitors. Yeah, I mean, I mean that. Look, 485 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 1: it was a it was a miserable scene and I'm injured, 486 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 1: I'm not playing, our team is not winning. Uh, you know, 487 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 1: it's it was just it was just a tough year 488 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,160 Speaker 1: all the way around. So twenty twelve couldn't have come 489 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 1: sooner enough. And you know, got off to the you know, 490 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: a kind of a nude chapter with the Broncos, and 491 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 1: it goes to show you the competitiveness and and the 492 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: adversity of the ability to overcome adversity that Peyton shows 493 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: throughout his career to literally, I mean, this guy had 494 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: a nerve thing that where he couldn't grip a football. 495 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 1: I've been on I've been on notice to tell everyone 496 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 1: that I hate quarterbacks with gloves. He gets the only exception, 497 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 1: because you know, he could barely probably feel his arm. 498 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 1: But that that goes to show you the competitor was 499 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 1: stay in the conference. Fuck Brady, fuck the Ravens. We're 500 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: gonna go out here. I know him, I'm gonna go 501 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: beat him. And that's the kind of guy Peyton Manny is. 502 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: Now you're you're jumping into week one and week one, 503 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: especially if you play in the opening night game, which 504 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: this is the opening night game for the Ravens, but 505 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: it took place in Mile High, which is usually kind 506 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,919 Speaker 1: of weird. We saw that. No, they were trying to 507 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: make it somewhat of a home atmosphere. They had the 508 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 1: Joe Flacco fucking banner on your guys' sideline. You guys 509 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: kind of start slow. There's a lightning storm, there's rain, 510 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: the place is probably electric because you do have the 511 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,719 Speaker 1: defending Super Bowl champs. But after you guys score that 512 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: first touchdown and after you get the adjustments going, because 513 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: this is a game of adjustment, especially week one, you 514 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,719 Speaker 1: got teams that are game planning for fucking six months 515 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: for this game. They got a whole new bunch of 516 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: things that you haven't seen on tape. There's no tape 517 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: to study, Like when did you settle down after that 518 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: first touchdown is when you started seeing things. You started 519 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: letting things lay out. All Right, we do this, We're 520 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: gonna get that. Yeah, I mean, Julia, like you said, 521 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: the beginning of the game was very strange. I mean, 522 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: the fact that Joe Flacco's picture was on mild Eve 523 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: Stadium just tells you this is different, right, And you know, 524 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: going back, I mean, like I said, the Ravens had 525 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:08,719 Speaker 1: beat us in a playoff game in Denver, a devastating loss. 526 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: They hit this eighty yarder with like a few seconds left. 527 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: They go on to win the super Bowl, like you said, 528 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 1: And you know, like when you win the Super Bowl, 529 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: you're supposed to play your first game at home, right, 530 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: I mean, that's kind of what you earned. And the 531 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: Orioles didn't want to give up like a home Thursday 532 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: baseball game because they share a parking lot. So nice partners, 533 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: Baltimore Orioles, And they tell the Ravens, sorry, you're gonna 534 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: have to go on the road and play your opening 535 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: game as a Super Bowl champion in Denver. So I'm 536 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: sure the Ravens weren't real happy going in. We were 537 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 1: motivated coming off that loss from the year before. There's 538 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: a lot of emotion. You mentioned the rain delay. You're 539 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 1: all ready to play all of a sudden, go sit 540 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: in the locker room for forty five minutes. So it 541 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: took us a while to get on track. And you know, 542 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: everybody thinks, oh, you blew the Ravens out that day. 543 00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 1: We were actually down seventeen to fourteen going into the half, 544 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: but we had you had a couple of touchdowns, hit 545 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: Julius Thomas on a couple of touchdowns. We felt like 546 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 1: we had some momentum going into halftime, and then uh 547 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: came out in the second half. It just uh, I 548 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: mean it was just hard. It was hard to miss. 549 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 1: Guys looked wide open to me. Uh, the ravage weren't 550 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 1: missing ray Lewis. Okay, I will say that was significant, right. 551 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: Ray Lewis had retired the season before. Right went out 552 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: in style. Uh that was Look, that's a big that's 553 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: a big void, right. I felt like they were still recovering, 554 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: uh from that loss, and uh, uh will take advantage 555 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: of that. Ed Reid was gone as well. Remember he 556 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: signed with the Jets, and people don't really Yeah, I 557 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:47,719 Speaker 1: mean that's that is the Ravens at that point, So 558 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: there's no doubt we took advantage of that. I can 559 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 1: remember playing against the Ravens, and I bet you Peyton's 560 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: got these seaming exact stories and you'd line up in 561 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: a formation in a certain down and distance and fucking 562 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: ray Lewis is calling out the play Like that's the 563 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: kind of guy ray Lewis was. He was listening to 564 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: everything that Peyton was saying. We all know Peyton's pre snaps, 565 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: like theatrics. He's over here, given this that, trying to 566 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: see get the defense to jump out of their disguise. 567 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 1: Then it becomes a chess match once you lose that 568 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: figure and you have a guy like Peyton Minning who's 569 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: a fucking player coach, Like once they figure it out, 570 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:27,479 Speaker 1: you knew something crazy was gonna happen. Like yeah, I mean, 571 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more. Ray Ray was a quarterback there 572 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: on defense. Then you add it Ry, who never lined 573 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: up in the same place, was gonna do things the 574 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: opposite of what he should do just to use the quarterback. 575 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 1: Although those guys weren't there, I will say that Ravens 576 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: defense was extremely well coached, well trained because of Ray 577 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: and Ed's presidence you know, the guys filling in for 578 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: them were still strong football players, were very aware, understood 579 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: our offensive game, playing our tendency. So it wasn't like 580 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: it was a cakewalk by any means. But I will 581 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: say I did not mind not seeing number fifty two 582 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: and number twenty in that game. In different now. You 583 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: threw five touchdowns in the second half, that's almost more 584 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: insane than seven in a game. Five and one half 585 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 1: sounds insane against a well trained defense, against defending Super 586 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 1: Bowl champion. It was we hit, like I said Thomas 587 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 1: a couple of times in the first half, we hit 588 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: Welker down there on the goal line in the red zone, 589 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: you know, kind of a place where Wes has sort 590 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: of made his name on these little option routes, the 591 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 1: same routes that Julian Rayan as well, hard to cover. 592 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 1: And that was my first game with Wes. Right, we'd 593 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: had offseason training head preseason, but you never really know 594 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: until you get into a game. So the fact that 595 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: he and I hooked up for two touchdowns, if his 596 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: very first game as a Bronco, was a really good feeling. 597 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: And then I want to say, we get caught well 598 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: down the left sideline and then we ended up hitting 599 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 1: the Marrity Thomas on a go route on the right 600 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: and then this scrubbing My favorite play. It was a 601 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: one yard pass by me. You know, it was a 602 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: screen pass to Demarrius, but we caught the Ravens in 603 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: a blitz and look, I had thrown that wide receiver 604 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: screen before. I had never thrown it to a six ' four, 605 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: two hundred and twenty two pound grown man and to 606 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 1: Maryus bought that ball split the same and it it was gone. 607 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 1: And he did that tid in our time together. So 608 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: that was pretty cool to witness, even though I didn't 609 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 1: really do anything on that play besides the one yard pass. Yeah, 610 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: he says he didn't do anything, but he saw the 611 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: tendencies at the defense gave him. He knew it was 612 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: fucking blitz zero. So the best thing to do to 613 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 1: bleat beat blitz zero is throw the jailbreak screen on 614 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: the outside. It's a matchup, but we also have very 615 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: different definitions of not doing anything. I'll show you not 616 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 1: doing anything. I'm a lazy man, but yeah, I mean 617 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: you bring up Wes Welker. This is an interesting season. 618 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 1: Wes comes to the Broncos you guys worked together for 619 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: a first season, and that opened up things for Julian 620 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 1: in New England to kind of do what West did. Ye, 621 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,479 Speaker 1: So thank you, thank you Peyton. Well, I mean, I 622 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 1: mean you're welcome. I guess, uh, I appreciate yeah, I 623 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: uh yeah. Playing with Wes what was fun because you 624 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 1: could tell of his knowledge, his understanding of defenses after 625 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: playing with Tom playing of that sophisticated Patriots offense, so 626 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: we were able to kind of pick up on a 627 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: lot of things quickly. We sort of copied the Broncos 628 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: uh uh platebook when I signed Julian. We incorporated a 629 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 1: lot of the same routes and concepts that you guys 630 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: ran in New England. Hey, Wes, obviously you like this play, right, 631 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 1: you like Gotti right, go with an option route. We're 632 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,720 Speaker 1: going to put that play in. And so that allowed 633 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:50,239 Speaker 1: West to play fast, especially in that first game. You know, 634 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: you had so many different players and and and the 635 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 1: great thing about what you could do is you could 636 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 1: get the players in the best possible situation for their strengths. 637 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: And you saw that this whole game DT catch and 638 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: run DT down the sideline, you know, Julius Thomas down 639 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,439 Speaker 1: the middle west on his option routes, his pick routes 640 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 1: in the red area. And that's what a quarterback like 641 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: Peyton can do now after stealing Wes Welker from us, 642 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 1: which thank you, I appreciate that it gave me my 643 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:21,919 Speaker 1: opportunity along with Aaron Hernandez drama. You know, when guys 644 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 1: are leaving, that gives opportunity for he left for a 645 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: different reason. He left for a different reason. But did 646 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 1: you have kind of like a like a little fist 647 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: pump moment when you go out and you steal Tom's 648 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: favorite receiver and you give him two touchdowns in the 649 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 1: first game. You know, it's funny like when you throw 650 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:40,800 Speaker 1: a touchdown in the first game to a new receiver, 651 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: like you sort of think about all the things that 652 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 1: happened prior to that. I remember being down in Miami. 653 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,880 Speaker 1: I was playing golf with Dan Marino of all people, 654 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,359 Speaker 1: and saying, to day, I got to skip this whole 655 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 1: and I called Wes Welker and went into full college 656 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,279 Speaker 1: recruiting mode. It right, just like when I was back 657 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: at Tennessee, I felt like I had a good track 658 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: record as a recruiting host. Right, I was a pretty 659 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: good closer, and I went into that mode with Wes Welker. 660 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: It was apart five. Gave me lots of time to 661 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 1: give him all my cheesy pitch lines and kind of 662 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: kind of sealed the deal. All of a sudden, you know, 663 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: he becomes the Broncos. We do off season growing together 664 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 1: at Duke University, off campus, We're hanging out and you know, 665 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 1: all those things matter, right, Julian. I mean all that 666 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:32,280 Speaker 1: time you spend together, It's not just on the NFL 667 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: stadium field, right, It's these off season workouts in May 668 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: and June and nobody's around. And to have all that 669 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 1: hard work be put in in a short period of 670 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 1: time and to have that payoff in that first game, 671 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: and you know I would end up being kind of 672 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 1: a record breaking season. That was pretty cool. That makes 673 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,839 Speaker 1: all the hard work work. While to me, what kind 674 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 1: of pitch are you giving, Wes? I mean, are you 675 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:56,479 Speaker 1: saying things like Tom doesn't love you like I love you, dude, 676 00:36:56,480 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 1: Like he doesn't appreciate you. Yeah? Probably, so I'm afraid 677 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: to you know, you know, eight on on you know 678 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,399 Speaker 1: other people, right, And that's what recruiting is, right, Hey, 679 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 1: if you go to Georgia. There's no way you're gonna 680 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 1: get as good an education as you would get at Tennessee. Right, 681 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 1: so it shouldn't even be shouldn't even be a comparison. 682 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: So let's tell you got people to Tennessee the education, yeah, 683 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: back then nothing else? Uh yeah, Look, I mean you 684 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 1: pull out all stops a west, We're gonna throw it 685 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: every time. You don't have to block. Uh you know, 686 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 1: we're gonna you know, keep the ball outside. We won't 687 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: send you across the middle, right, I mean, everything is 688 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 1: on the tape man. And you also, let's like you 689 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: got d T, which you know I spend a little 690 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,800 Speaker 1: time with DT. You know, it's horrific what happened to 691 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 1: our guy. You know, can you can you shine a 692 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 1: little light on DT? I know you you set up 693 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 1: a scholarship for uh de Marius? Yeah yeah, Now, I 694 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 1: mean Julia Haaber is one of my favorite favorite teammates. 695 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:03,720 Speaker 1: Sweet guy, unbelievably talented, incredibly unselfish, right, put the team 696 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,360 Speaker 1: over self. You know, Look, receivers want the ball, I 697 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: get it. But Marius was different. I mean he took 698 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: pride in the fact that defenses were double covering in 699 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 1: right We're rolling a safety to his side, and that 700 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 1: was going to allow Julius Thomas to be wide open, right. 701 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 1: I mean, de Marius took pride, but he says, hey, 702 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: because of me, they're focused on me, somebody else is 703 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 1: going to have their day. That is not a normal attitude. 704 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 1: I mean, was as excited to see my kids after 705 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: the game. Coaches. Kids had this incredible smile, tough, played hurt, 706 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 1: never complained, never came out of the game. So yeah, 707 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: I missed him every day. We started the scholarship at 708 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: Georgia Tech in his honor. Every year, Julie and Georgia 709 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: Tech is going to give the number eight jersey that 710 00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 1: was what Damarius wore at Georgia Tech on August eighth, 711 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: eight eight of every year he was eighty eight for 712 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,399 Speaker 1: the Broncos. Eight. At Georgia They're gonna give to their 713 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 1: top player leader senior, the number eighth jersey every year 714 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: on that date. And I think that's a pretty cool 715 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,880 Speaker 1: way to keep his legacy a lot. That's that's awesome. 716 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:18,719 Speaker 1: It's awesome. I mean, you know, with these kind of antics, 717 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,360 Speaker 1: it makes Peyton slide up in my mating scale of 718 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 1: who I like more. Well, We got to talk about 719 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 1: Eli for a second, because I'm a Giants fan. I 720 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 1: love Eli. What he's done for this city. I mean, 721 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,400 Speaker 1: what he's done for our confidence. We've had some of 722 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 1: the other franchises in New York. We're dragging a little bit. 723 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,479 Speaker 1: That the Giants won. It made me happy to see 724 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 1: you cheering for Eli at that first Super Bowl. I 725 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 1: thought that was really cool. But there's got to be 726 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 1: some sibling rivalry, especially once Eli got his second You're 727 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 1: in Denver, was a part of you like, I gotta 728 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 1: I gotta match my brother. Well, look, certainly that was 729 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 1: the goal every year, and you know, we'd had great 730 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,400 Speaker 1: seasons in Indianapolis and some great regular seats at Denver, 731 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,360 Speaker 1: but just couldn't quite get o the Hawk, you know, 732 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 1: lost the Super Bowl. And so look extremely proud of Eli, 733 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 1: the way he you know, handled himself, handled New York. 734 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 1: You mentioned that Super Bowl. That was one of the 735 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,840 Speaker 1: greatest football experiences for me, and I was in the 736 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 1: stands watching your brother lead a team in a two 737 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: minute thrill to win a Super Bowl. So it's funny 738 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,839 Speaker 1: you mentioned Eli uh and the Ravens, you know, thinking 739 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 1: about you know what happened in the past to get 740 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 1: you to this point. You know, Super Bowl season two 741 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 1: thousand and seven, Hall of Fine and Dandy. I want 742 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: to say it was two thousand and four, Eli's rookie year. 743 00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 1: They went to Baltimore against Ray Lewis and a kids 744 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: ed reed. Eli tells the story better than that, better 745 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,760 Speaker 1: than him. But two things I remember about that game. 746 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,839 Speaker 1: He had a zero point zero quarterback rating, which is 747 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 1: actually hard to do because it's not because it's not 748 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:59,320 Speaker 1: like over for twelve. It's like four for twenty seven 749 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:04,240 Speaker 1: with three interceptions and twenty one yards like the math 750 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,360 Speaker 1: has to beer. You actually have to have a couple 751 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: of completions to get the zero point zero rating. It's 752 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 1: hard to do. And also, he said, Julian, you'll appreciate this. 753 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 1: Eli was up there calling the bike. He's like, no, no, 754 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 1: he a number fifty nine is the mic and Raves 755 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: going no, no, no, fifty nine is out the mic. 756 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: I'm the bike And Eli said, oh, yeah, you're right, 757 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,720 Speaker 1: fifty two is the mic. I mean it's not normal 758 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: for the bike linebacker on the other team to be 759 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 1: dictating the protection call for the quarterback. So the Ravens 760 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 1: had a big impact on Eli. I think getting to 761 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: that Super Bowl. Uh you know several years later, well 762 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 1: you talk about Kerry Collins, the Ravens beat my Giants 763 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 1: with Kerry Collins. I think it was one and that 764 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 1: was my first taste of that Ravens d when I 765 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: was like, damn raight Louis two thousand, there's something else. 766 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 1: But uh, yeah, we have in a tradition. There was 767 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 1: a pride there. Lord dance thugs, you know, Adelius Thomas, 768 00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:00,879 Speaker 1: H McAllister. I mean, believe me, Peter Bulwer, they were, 769 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:05,720 Speaker 1: they were specials. They were and uh, it just goes 770 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: to tell you, you know, with all the rough times 771 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,399 Speaker 1: for Eli Manning to you know, he getting called out 772 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 1: Mike points by the other team, to see him go 773 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 1: out there and and win two like he did. I mean, 774 00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: he's just got a short memory and that's what you 775 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 1: have to have as an elite quarterback. And he did 776 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 1: it twice against the Patriot. It made me very happy 777 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 1: New York about too. And when so you have this offensive, 778 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,399 Speaker 1: even this insane season, throw fifty five touchdowns, you set 779 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 1: the record, where do you rank this offense? Not just 780 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:39,440 Speaker 1: for you but all the time because you had insane 781 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 1: offenses in Indianapolis too. Yeah, I mean, look it was. 782 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 1: It was you know, people say it's like playing a 783 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 1: video game. In some ways, it was because we had 784 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:56,319 Speaker 1: a bunch of guys Welker, Julius Thomas, Eric Decker, uh 785 00:42:56,560 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: Demarus Dreas and Tammy no show. They love football. They 786 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 1: loved it. They love to work, they love to practice, 787 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,319 Speaker 1: they love those offseason you know, throwing sessions. And so 788 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 1: when you have a bunch of guys that just love it, 789 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 1: that are unselfish, that realize, hey, today might be Decker's day, 790 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,439 Speaker 1: today might be Welfer's day. I mean it just made 791 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:19,840 Speaker 1: for a fun offense to play in. And we played, 792 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: you know, some teams that we hadn't played a while, 793 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 1: they didn't really have any idea what was coming. We 794 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 1: through a ton of touchdowns I think against the old 795 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 1: NFC East, if you will. So, yeah, it's pretty cool. 796 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:33,840 Speaker 1: I see you know no Sean here in Denver, I 797 00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 1: see Joel Dreeson and you know, fifty five touchdowns in 798 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,799 Speaker 1: a sixteen game season, right, I mean they've gone to 799 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 1: seventeen games. They still haven't gotten it. I'm sure it's 800 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,760 Speaker 1: going down. Brady's on a mission to break every record 801 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,760 Speaker 1: that I have, right, I mean, he will. He wants 802 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,799 Speaker 1: to break that fifty five and trust me, right Mahomes, 803 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,759 Speaker 1: I'm sure is going to get there at some point too. 804 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 1: So most of my records have fallen. That's one that's 805 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: kind of on around, you know, for a little while. 806 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,879 Speaker 1: I mean to tell you how competitive Brady is now. 807 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 1: He goes out and he gets more retirements than me, right, 808 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:11,120 Speaker 1: I mean what I mean seriously like you, I mean, 809 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 1: can't I just have something you know over time? No? No, no, 810 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:16,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have two retirements. You know, I'm gonna have 811 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,560 Speaker 1: more than Peyton. Yeah, but Peyton he owned us when 812 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,080 Speaker 1: you're in Denver. You owned us when you're in Denver. Okay, 813 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 1: I get you're trying to be mister humble right now, 814 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:28,920 Speaker 1: but you became the sheriff in that that orange uniform 815 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 1: that we all remember in the AFC Championship in thirteen fifteen, 816 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,319 Speaker 1: and we could keep it going, We could keep it going. 817 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 1: But I have a quick question, Like we talk about 818 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 1: the pre snap tendencies that you do. Did you jump 819 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:47,240 Speaker 1: into plays with two plays always or were you straight 820 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:50,399 Speaker 1: audibling into other plays? Like did you have a check 821 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,839 Speaker 1: with me with a two high look, a one high 822 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 1: look pass to run or was it? Did that change 823 00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 1: up according to who you're playing, because you're clearly a 824 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,759 Speaker 1: game playing kind of guy. Yeah, Julian, that's how it 825 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:06,800 Speaker 1: started way back when in Indianapolis. Uh. You know, around 826 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 1: that two thousand, two thousand and one, Uh, we were 827 00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 1: calling almost three plays in the huddle. We were calling 828 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,799 Speaker 1: a run to the right, run to the left, and 829 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:18,719 Speaker 1: then an alert to a pass play right. We were 830 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,359 Speaker 1: a one back offense, as you know, you know, when 831 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 1: a fullback's in there, you can kind of call plays 832 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,719 Speaker 1: and it's called you know, c I alight call it 833 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 1: and run it right. The fullback's gonna block the extra guy. 834 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 1: In a what back offense, the defense can have too 835 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 1: many guys in there and forcing to a bad place. 836 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: We wanted the flexibility, and as we got into the 837 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 1: no huddle, Uh, Julian, you know, basically I want to 838 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say its two thousand. We were starting a 839 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:44,560 Speaker 1: lot of games. We were losing. We were down fourteen 840 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 1: to nothing, and the coaches said, hey, let's go no puddle, 841 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 1: let's pick it up. And we started playing well. And 842 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:53,240 Speaker 1: finally we said, why are we waiting to get down fourteen, 843 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,319 Speaker 1: nothing to go, no huddle, Let's just start the game 844 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: that way. And that's how it began. And at that 845 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 1: point we stopped doing the three plays and just kind 846 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,720 Speaker 1: of calling one play. And then if I saw something 847 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:08,280 Speaker 1: that the defense was doing like that all outlets cover zero, 848 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: I had the flexibility to audible to a wide receiver 849 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 1: screen and get us out of bad plays. What's the 850 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 1: main thing. It wasn't always trying to get to the 851 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 1: perfect play, it was getting us out of bad situation. 852 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,720 Speaker 1: And because of that, that two thousand and no huddle 853 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 1: like type offense. I mean, the last part of my 854 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,280 Speaker 1: like the final four parts four years of my career, 855 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,200 Speaker 1: you're starting to see all this no huddle. Let's get 856 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,319 Speaker 1: to the ball, let's play fast, Let's tire out that 857 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 1: defensive line. They got too many guys that get the quarterback. 858 00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 1: The faster you could play, the more the quarterback and 859 00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 1: the OC can talk to each other. So there's a 860 00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 1: little advantage with that. You can get lined up, you 861 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:51,360 Speaker 1: can see what the defense is doing. And he revolutionized that. 862 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what Peyton Manning was all about. Getting 863 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:57,239 Speaker 1: his team in the best play, in the best situation. 864 00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 1: And you know you can argue there's no one better, 865 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,719 Speaker 1: and and you know I have nothing but respect. I 866 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 1: always bust your goddamn balls because you know, you took 867 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 1: two from me in the AFC Championship. And but I 868 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 1: gotta love you because he also took Walker away. So 869 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 1: you know, I just want to well, I certainly appreciate 870 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 1: that you Joe, and I agree. You know, uh uh 871 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 1: play callers right, some are on the sidelines, some are 872 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 1: up in the there's a big debate, you know, what's 873 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 1: the better view. There's no doubt that the best view 874 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 1: of the field is the quarterback on the field. Right. 875 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:36,839 Speaker 1: He can see everything, you know, if you can give 876 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 1: him some some some you know, freedom to get you 877 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 1: out of bad place. Hey, they're finally playing man the 878 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,320 Speaker 1: man let me check to a option route to Edelman 879 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 1: in the slot, right, I mean press box sideline. Then 880 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 1: even compare to the view that the quarterback has if 881 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 1: he can handle that freedom and responsibility, you know. So 882 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:58,360 Speaker 1: we had Brandon Marshall on here and he said he 883 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 1: were he didn't play any playoff games, and this is 884 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,359 Speaker 1: games with names, and he's a good friend of mine. 885 00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:05,840 Speaker 1: We were on inside the NFL, which streams on paramount 886 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 1: plus of course, and so we had to do the 887 00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:12,320 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl where he scored four touchdowns and recap that 888 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:15,080 Speaker 1: for five to five touchdowns four I'm sorry four. And 889 00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:18,359 Speaker 1: he was telling a story that you threw a dart 890 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 1: route to him in the in the red area and 891 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 1: he dropped it, and he said, you gave him the 892 00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:27,720 Speaker 1: death stare from one thousand miles away for four minutes 893 00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:30,600 Speaker 1: straight and you didn't throw the ball to him ever. Again, 894 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 1: is that what to expect from Peyton Manning if you 895 00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 1: drop his ball? I mean the Pro Bowl. It's a 896 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 1: different type of motivation, right, If you're lucky enough to 897 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: be named the starter. Usually the coaches that I played with, 898 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 1: a starting quarterback, you can stay in as long as 899 00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:49,920 Speaker 1: you want. When you're ready to come out, you want 900 00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:52,600 Speaker 1: to come out, and the goal is to try to 901 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:55,359 Speaker 1: throw as many touchdowns as you can so you can 902 00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 1: get the MVP award and win the car. That is 903 00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:00,800 Speaker 1: the goal, right. I remember Rich Gannon was the starter 904 00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,480 Speaker 1: my first Pro Bowl. I was the third guy. Rich 905 00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:06,319 Speaker 1: Cannon's like, I'm going down the field three times, I'm 906 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:08,480 Speaker 1: gonna throw three touchdowns, I'm gonna win the car. I'm 907 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,360 Speaker 1: getting out on the second series, Jeff Fisher put me 908 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 1: in the game because he wanted me to throw a 909 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:17,000 Speaker 1: touchdown to Jerry Rice because I like said that week 910 00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:18,799 Speaker 1: could be cool to throw a touchdown to Jerry Rice. 911 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:21,399 Speaker 1: Rich Cannon was so mad, He's like, wait a minute, 912 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:23,960 Speaker 1: I'm not coming out like this. This is my deal. 913 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:26,799 Speaker 1: So when Marshall dropped that dart route, it was gonna 914 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,440 Speaker 1: be a touchdown and that I thought I needed that 915 00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:32,719 Speaker 1: touchdown to win the car and he dropped it. So yeah, 916 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 1: and basically he cost me a car. Well, recently, Julian 917 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:38,960 Speaker 1: threw me the bathroom key on our floor and I 918 00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:42,400 Speaker 1: bobbled it and there's been some trust issues since between us. 919 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 1: So you gotta trust the guy that's catching your balls. Day. 920 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,000 Speaker 1: You gotta trust the guy that's catching your balls. And 921 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:51,800 Speaker 1: I don't catch your balls, Peyton, that's forgot touch it. 922 00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:55,719 Speaker 1: If you touch it, you gotta catch it. That's the rule. Yeah. No, uh, 923 00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 1: that's my rule of sex too. I don't know what 924 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 1: that means, but uh, Peyden, Uh, what would do you 925 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:03,920 Speaker 1: wish you guys played together? I feel like you guys 926 00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 1: could have had a cool I mean, you had Welker 927 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 1: who kind of did some similar stuff that Julian did. Yeah, 928 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 1: do you guys think you could have had a cool connection. Oh? Absolutely, yeah. 929 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I love you know, just from watching 930 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 1: from afore, I could tell Julian was a stuard of 931 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,719 Speaker 1: the game. I could tell him it's confidence Tom had 932 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,360 Speaker 1: in him. And so look, I know what that's like. 933 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 1: You know, Wes Welker, Brandon Stokely is another guy that 934 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,440 Speaker 1: kind of comes to mind. You know, it's the slot receiver, 935 00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 1: fearless across the mill, right. I mean, look, not not 936 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 1: picking on guys that play outside, but you're in the slot. 937 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,400 Speaker 1: Julian will tell you you got linebackers in there, right, 938 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 1: You've got ray Lewis the bike linebacker. You got safeties right, 939 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 1: because you're going down the middle of field. It takes 940 00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:46,520 Speaker 1: a special guy. And uh, and you really got to 941 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 1: understand defenses, right. You have to understand the difference between 942 00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:53,719 Speaker 1: cover two, cover two, man, cover four, cover eight. Right. 943 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 1: And then because of you know Brady and you know 944 00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,520 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks are trying to confuse the defenses lining up 945 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:03,320 Speaker 1: and one defense on the snap rotating to a different defense. 946 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,360 Speaker 1: The receiver has to see that on the run. Nobody 947 00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 1: did that better than Julie. Well, you gotta have like 948 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:11,160 Speaker 1: he said, you guys gotta have the same You gotta 949 00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:13,839 Speaker 1: be on such the same page where what you're doing. 950 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,319 Speaker 1: You know, he wants you to do that, and he's 951 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,480 Speaker 1: got to trust you because that's where it's got to be, 952 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,719 Speaker 1: and that comes through repetition, like he said in the offseason, 953 00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:25,280 Speaker 1: learning guy's body mechanics. But speaking of Tom, last question, 954 00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 1: I've gotten you on my podcast, I've gotten Eli and 955 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,160 Speaker 1: my pad cast.

I feel like, you know, 961 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 1: it needs to be more than just a kind of 962 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 1: a simple text joining. I mean, you gotta, you know, 963 00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 1: maybe send him something. You know, what do you send 964 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 1: a man that has everything?

It's 987 00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:07,600 Speaker 1: like a destination wedding. If it doesn't work out, I 988 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 1: want my money back for the flight. That's what I say. 989 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 1: It seems fair. It seems that seemed like too much 990 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:16,440 Speaker 1: to ask for. I mean, Peyton Manning, you see that 991 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:20,400 Speaker 1: he called himself the closer with those kind of skill 992 00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:23,239 Speaker 1: sets to be able to give a handwritten cursive letter 993 00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 1: a bottle of wine from the year you were drafted. 994 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:30,440 Speaker 1: I'm sure he used to close a lot.

I mean he's still got it, and now 1011 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:22,799 Speaker 1: was he still got it. He's still the MVP. I mean, 1012 00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:27,439 Speaker 1: this is crazy that he comes out guns blazing like this. Yeah, 1013 00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:31,799 Speaker 1: this is like ELI and the Super Bowl type behavior. Yeah, 1014 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:36,560 Speaker 1: you know that just ruined my train of thought. Sam, 1015 00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:39,839 Speaker 1: thank you once again. But I am an ELI guy. 1016 00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:43,800 Speaker 1: Like I said, when you sit down with it with 1017 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:47,960 Speaker 1: a great like Peyton Maning and you interview him, it 1018 00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 1: just reiterates why he was so good. Yeah, I mean 1019 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:56,319 Speaker 1: anything from the three thousand, five hundred and sixty two 1020 00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:59,799 Speaker 1: word fucking essay he sent me before the interview, yes 1021 00:54:59,880 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 1: d to allow me to have his notes what about 1022 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:07,560 Speaker 1: the game, to the preparation skills that he had, to 1023 00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:11,719 Speaker 1: the relationships he had with his teammates. You know that 1024 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 1: that's that's those are the intangibles. Those are the things 1025 00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 1: that make great leaders and great leaders, great quarterbacks. And 1026 00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:22,239 Speaker 1: and he had he tried to say he didn't have 1027 00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:24,640 Speaker 1: an arm. I mean, this guy was playing with like 1028 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:28,800 Speaker 1: fucking broken nerves and nerve damage like most people wouldn't 1029 00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 1: even be able to walk. And he's over here playing 1030 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:34,120 Speaker 1: in football games. So fucking just a gritty guy, more 1031 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 1: gritty than I thought he actually, Uh, I think I 1032 00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 1: think I put him. Was there ever a knock on 1033 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:40,920 Speaker 1: him for not being gritty? No, I don't think there was. 1034 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 1: But you know, you don't You don't think of Peyton 1035 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:45,320 Speaker 1: Manning as like a greedy You kind of do. But 1036 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 1: you think when someone's such a skill guy, sometimes that 1037 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 1: knocks him down in the grid department. No, you just 1038 00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:51,800 Speaker 1: think of when you think of him, you think of 1039 00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:55,440 Speaker 1: a big brain. Yeah, you just think of, you know, hey, 1040 00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:57,360 Speaker 1: this guy, he's gonna get the team in the right 1041 00:55:57,440 --> 00:55:59,560 Speaker 1: plates having a coach on the field. Just like you 1042 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 1: said when we were doing the interview, he goes, Hey, 1043 00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:04,440 Speaker 1: the best of you is the guy on the field, 1044 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 1: not the guy in the press box, not the coach 1045 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 1: on the sideline, the guy in the field. Yeah, and 1046 00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:13,760 Speaker 1: that's why he was so goddamn good. Yeah. Will willing 1047 00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 1: to riff, Will willing to change, you know, at the 1048 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage audible audible. Yeah. Other seven touchdown passing 1049 00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:24,759 Speaker 1: games we got Drew Brees at my New York Giants. Ugh, 1050 00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:28,560 Speaker 1: we'll strike that. Nick Foles twenty thirteen against Nick Foles, 1051 00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,800 Speaker 1: seven touchdown game. Nick Foles had a very interesting career. 1052 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:39,560 Speaker 1: Goshi Manning, Joe Capp, sid Luckman, Chicago, nineteen forty three. 1053 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:43,439 Speaker 1: First the New York Giants. He's on the wall jew 1054 00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:47,759 Speaker 1: and he's a Jew. Yeah, I love it. Put a 1055 00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 1: point up for the for the squad, for the tribe. 1056 00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:55,040 Speaker 1: Let's settle this prop bets Jack, what we got. We 1057 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:57,520 Speaker 1: set the line at five and a half right at 1058 00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:00,880 Speaker 1: the buzzer. Sam got us to six, just like Eli. 1059 00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:03,759 Speaker 1: The type of thing Eli would have done in a 1060 00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:07,359 Speaker 1: two minute drill. Yeah, we had to escape a few. Uh. 1061 00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 1: I threw I threw that lean moments there too. I 1062 00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:14,680 Speaker 1: threw that Eli compliment right to Plexico. Now I think 1063 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:16,880 Speaker 1: he more threw it into that team meeting and it 1064 00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 1: miraculously came down on a helmet or cover five down 1065 00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:26,640 Speaker 1: the sideline in front of people. So Peyton Manning's current records, 1066 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:29,520 Speaker 1: he is the most MVP awards. Aaron Rodgers is one 1067 00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:31,760 Speaker 1: behind with four. Do you think he'll catch that or no? 1068 00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's it's gonna be tough. Aaron Rodgers 1069 00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:39,240 Speaker 1: lost his best target. We're gonna We're gonna see. Isn't 1070 00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 1: that crazy? Ye? He re signs and they lose his dude. Yeah, 1071 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:46,840 Speaker 1: when you when you put that much money towards the quarterback, 1072 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:50,919 Speaker 1: would you have hard to keep others? That's how it goes. 1073 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:54,000 Speaker 1: Would you have advised him to take less? I wouldn't 1074 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,200 Speaker 1: have advised him to do anything. It's about him. Yeah, 1075 00:57:56,400 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 1: you know so, But that's not the Patriot way. What 1076 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:03,200 Speaker 1: is the Patriot way? You tell me or the Patriots? 1077 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:05,200 Speaker 1: I can't tell you because that's the Patriot way, not 1078 00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 1: telling people anything.

When I do 1083 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,640 Speaker 1: a little better, But when I when I tell a 1084 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:33,840 Speaker 1: joke like morell, I just I look around. We got 1085 00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:37,080 Speaker 1: what what's the record Manny will hold the longest? Do 1086 00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:41,680 Speaker 1: you think it's tough?

Everyone's, 1135 01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 1: you know, at the line of scrimmage, trying to dick 1136 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:43,880 Speaker 1: around with the defense because that's what Peyton Manning did. 1137 01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 1: So this is a good one for you. Where do Demius, Thomas, 1138 01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:50,600 Speaker 1: Welker and decker a stack up against all time receiving rooms. 1139 01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 1: I mean, they they were good. They were they were 1140 01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:58,040 Speaker 1: damn good. I'd have to put they have to be. 1141 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:02,000 Speaker 1: They were probably top three four, top three, top four. 1142 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:03,880 Speaker 1: Got I don't know that. I don't know the order 1143 01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,320 Speaker 1: I got. I'd have to put on all these films 1144 01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:08,920 Speaker 1: to really watch. I mean you got some, I mean, 1145 01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:12,680 Speaker 1: greatest show on turf. Tory Hold, Isaac Bruce, Ricky Proll. Yeah, 1146 01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:16,720 Speaker 1: you know those old seventy Steeler teams. You had Lynn Swan, 1147 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:22,720 Speaker 1: John Stalworth, then Peyton over at freaking the Colts had 1148 01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:27,080 Speaker 1: Marvin Harrison, Reggie, Wayne Dallas Clark left off Stokely here too, 1149 01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:32,320 Speaker 1: Stokely Dola Gronk and jewels. That's pretty good. Hey man, 1150 01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:34,800 Speaker 1: we don't we didn't get you know, we're not in 1151 01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:37,040 Speaker 1: that category. But we did win in the in the 1152 01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:39,880 Speaker 1: in the PA to two super Bowls. That's you know, 1153 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:42,040 Speaker 1: when it mattered. We don't have the numbers, but you 1154 01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:44,840 Speaker 1: know we have the hardware, Rings and things out here. 1155 01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:48,160 Speaker 1: Rings and things is the greatest offense of all time. 1156 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:50,440 Speaker 1: It's in the it's in the conversation. I don't know 1157 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,840 Speaker 1: if it's the best ever. Uh. I think the Rams 1158 01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:56,080 Speaker 1: you got to put in that conversation because the running 1159 01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:59,800 Speaker 1: back Christ and Marshall Fuck, I mean falk is without Falk, 1160 01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:02,120 Speaker 1: I think it's more of a conversation. But Marshall Fawk 1161 01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:07,240 Speaker 1: is like unlike anything I've ever seen. He could run 1162 01:03:07,320 --> 01:03:09,560 Speaker 1: with receivers. He could he could run her out like 1163 01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:12,840 Speaker 1: a receiver. He could run like an inside tackle running 1164 01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:17,200 Speaker 1: running back. Yeah. Yeah, I have to go with the 1165 01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 1: greatest show on turf or the I'm gonna go with 1166 01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:23,720 Speaker 1: the Seven Pats, you know, I'm gonna go with the 1167 01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:27,440 Speaker 1: Seven Giants. I think Eli and Plax had a great connection. 1168 01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:32,680 Speaker 1: Amani Tumor was a great security blanket. I mean, it's 1169 01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:35,000 Speaker 1: the thunder and lightning combo of a mad Bradshaw and 1170 01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 1: Brandon Jacobs. I think it's it could be any of 1171 01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:39,880 Speaker 1: those groups. I personally lean O seven Giants. We all 1172 01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:43,760 Speaker 1: have our opinions. We all have our opinions. Sam, Yeah, Jack, 1173 01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:48,760 Speaker 1: do we miss anything We hit our prop bet. We 1174 01:03:48,920 --> 01:03:52,040 Speaker 1: talked a little bit about Manning's record versus Patriots. He 1175 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:55,440 Speaker 1: was six and eleven all time against Brady, but did 1176 01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 1: have the edge in the playoffs three and two. Wow, 1177 01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:01,920 Speaker 1: which is a bit surprising. And we mentioned Eli recording 1178 01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:05,160 Speaker 1: that zero point zero in which that was true. That 1179 01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:08,320 Speaker 1: came in Week fourteen versus Baltimore and he was replaced 1180 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:10,440 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter by Kurt Warner. That was when 1181 01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:13,920 Speaker 1: Kurt Warner was with the Giants. Man yep one year. 1182 01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:17,800 Speaker 1: We talked about the halftime show of The Hardball Bull 1183 01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:22,720 Speaker 1: that was Beyonce joined by Destiny's Child, and we mentioned 1184 01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:28,120 Speaker 1: Faxgate a little bit deeper on that. Elvis Dumerville agreed 1185 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:31,160 Speaker 1: to take an eight million dollar contract instead of twelve 1186 01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:33,240 Speaker 1: with Denver, so he's taking a pay cut. I hope 1187 01:04:33,240 --> 01:04:35,680 Speaker 1: his agent did not commission him on that, because he 1188 01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:38,960 Speaker 1: fucked up pretty bad. His agent was running around Miami. 1189 01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:47,160 Speaker 1: It was a man. Okay, he was six minutes late 1190 01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:50,000 Speaker 1: getting it in and instead the Ravens signed him to 1191 01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:53,160 Speaker 1: a five year contract worth thirty five million. His agent 1192 01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:56,400 Speaker 1: was fired, as you can imagine, but also fined twenty 1193 01:04:56,440 --> 01:05:00,680 Speaker 1: five thousand dollars by the NFLPA and suspended for six months. Yikes. 1194 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:04,880 Speaker 1: He's a loser there, so that sucks. And oh we 1195 01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:08,520 Speaker 1: talked a little bit about the scheduling conflict which made 1196 01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:11,760 Speaker 1: this game take place in Denver. There was some parking 1197 01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:16,600 Speaker 1: issues the MLB Wooden Budge. There was also some religious 1198 01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:20,520 Speaker 1: holiday exemptions down the line that the Orioles sighted. But 1199 01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:23,400 Speaker 1: in the long run, the Oriols ended up losing four 1200 01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:25,520 Speaker 1: to three to the Blue Jays that night. I'm hauling 1201 01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:27,200 Speaker 1: the fourth place in the Al East. I don't know 1202 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 1: if it's karma, it's just the Orioles. I think that's 1203 01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:33,160 Speaker 1: just what happened to the Orioles, but karma two for sure. 1204 01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:35,640 Speaker 1: Naming the game, is it the Manning seven? Gotta be 1205 01:05:35,680 --> 01:05:37,640 Speaker 1: the Maning seven. I like it because it reminds me 1206 01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:40,160 Speaker 1: of the Magnificent Seven too. It's kind of a fun title. 1207 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:42,960 Speaker 1: And then you also have the Brady six that old 1208 01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:45,680 Speaker 1: documentary were the six guys that were drafted before Brady. 1209 01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:48,800 Speaker 1: That made him cry on that one documentary. And we 1210 01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:52,800 Speaker 1: had long hair, long beautiful hair, and you know that 1211 01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:55,280 Speaker 1: made me cry when I saw him cry a little. Yeah, 1212 01:05:55,400 --> 01:05:57,840 Speaker 1: you know fired me up. You're connected, man, Let's score 1213 01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:00,520 Speaker 1: it stakes. It's a weak one game, so we got 1214 01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 1: to go low on the stakes. Yeah, but it is 1215 01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:05,800 Speaker 1: the team that knocked you out. So there's pride at stake. 1216 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:10,040 Speaker 1: There's definitely pride. It's it's it's early in the year. 1217 01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:15,400 Speaker 1: You're learning your team. Five to five five five five 1218 01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:18,000 Speaker 1: five star power. You got to go pretty high here, 1219 01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:19,960 Speaker 1: I think. I mean you got Peyton Manning, Hall of Famer, 1220 01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:23,760 Speaker 1: you had d T Julius Thomas. This was a year ago. 1221 01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:26,720 Speaker 1: We were going even bigger because we lose Ray Lewis 1222 01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:29,840 Speaker 1: and Ed Reid's Yeah they weren't there, but that was 1223 01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:31,880 Speaker 1: a defending Super Bowl team and you had the elite 1224 01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:35,440 Speaker 1: Joe Flacco on there. So Flacco got his ring. Man, 1225 01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:37,479 Speaker 1: I have to I'd have to give it to seven 1226 01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:41,760 Speaker 1: five seven five seven five gameplay. It's good gameplay because 1227 01:06:41,760 --> 01:06:44,760 Speaker 1: we're watching a guy put on a clinic, clinic and 1228 01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:47,080 Speaker 1: it started out a little slow. It was I mean, 1229 01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:49,840 Speaker 1: they were losing at halftime. The Denver Broncos were losing 1230 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:52,720 Speaker 1: at halftime. So in the ra and the Ravens sniffer 1231 01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:55,760 Speaker 1: sniff around a little bit toward the end. So there's 1232 01:06:55,800 --> 01:07:00,320 Speaker 1: a little excitement there was. We'll give that a seven 1233 01:07:00,440 --> 01:07:05,600 Speaker 1: five to yeah, as in also the name the Brady 1234 01:07:05,920 --> 01:07:12,640 Speaker 1: or the Manning seven seven seven, that seems appropriate. Seven. 1235 01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:15,680 Speaker 1: So what is this is a six point eight five? 1236 01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 1: And there's no bias here because they knocked us out 1237 01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:26,919 Speaker 1: of the AFC Championship or anything either. You know, that's 1238 01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:30,520 Speaker 1: just how it goes. It goes. You can't win them all. 1239 01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:35,200 Speaker 1: You certainly cannot six point eight unless you're ELI, unless 1240 01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:37,160 Speaker 1: you're elying the Super Bowl against the Patriots, in which 1241 01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:41,920 Speaker 1: case you can win them all. That is once again true, Sam, 1242 01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:46,120 Speaker 1: That's once again true. Let's hey, but this was a 1243 01:07:46,160 --> 01:07:50,360 Speaker 1: great episode.
