1
00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:05,519
Speaker 1: We're bringing you another compilation of some of my favorite

2
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 1: stories from games.

3
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 2: With names, and that's called now. Terry Bradshaw on the

4
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 2: Greatest play in NFL History.

5
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 1: So why did we pick this game the immaculate reception.

6
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:19,440
Speaker 3: Well, it's the most famous play still to the voted

7
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 3: on by whomever sports writers or coaches or fans as

8
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 3: the greatest play in the history of the NFL, which

9
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 3: is we're talking to one hundred years of history. So

10
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 3: it's pretty amazing. Hard to believe it's still the number

11
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 3: one play because, as I said, there are a lot

12
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 3: of plays. But I think because of the history Julian

13
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:45,239
Speaker 3: of the Steelers and eventually the rivalry between the Raiders,

14
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 3: and the fact that had so much controversy in it,

15
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 3: the fact that the owner Arn't Rooney left the press

16
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 3: box went to the locker room to stand up and

17
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 3: shake our hands afterwards, telling us.

18
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 1: Hey, great season, great season.

19
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 4: He didn't even see the play.

20
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: He didn't know we won. Yeah wow.

21
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 3: I guess for all of those reasons, that's the reason why.

22
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 2: Next up, Howie Long on his nineteen eighty four Raiders

23
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 2: defense and key matchups that led to their Super Bowl victory.

24
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 5: They were a physical team that forced you to match

25
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 5: their physicality, and few teams could do that. And you know,

26
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,320
Speaker 5: you think about their wide receiving cores. You know Garrett

27
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 5: Monk or Monk, Hall of Famers, Hall of Famers, good

28
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,960
Speaker 5: as guy, Lady Warren and Walker. You know those the

29
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 5: tight ends were. You know, they were guys who were committed.

30
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 5: They go two three tight ends, they load up, and

31
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 5: the first thing you're thinking about, particularly in the three

32
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 5: man front, is we've got to stop the run. We've

33
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 5: got to stop the counter. I've got to beat the

34
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 5: polers on the back side. So I cheatd maybe three

35
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 5: inches outside on the guard to make that block for

36
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 5: Bostic all the all the hard and Stark is going

37
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 5: to try to get a hand inside while the center's

38
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 5: blocking back in the guard tackle poll and you know

39
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 5: I was they couldn't. They had id say they couldn't.

40
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 5: They struggled to run that away from me, so they

41
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 5: had to run it to me. And fourth down I'll

42
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 5: never forget. You know, we there was a fourth and

43
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 5: big fourth and one in the game, and you know

44
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 5: they flipped me over to Jojacobe because look, you're gonna

45
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 5: Jojacobe six whatever, six eight three twenty Jesus Hue, He's

46
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 5: just a big man. Eighties to these are big men.

47
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:38,959
Speaker 5: He's a big man.

48
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: And we talk about the game getting so much bigger.

49
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a big man.

50
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,519
Speaker 5: Well, Joe was an exceptionally big guy, and we knew

51
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 5: where the ball was going. They knew where the ball

52
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 5: was going, and I'm inside eye on Joe, on Joe,

53
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 5: and you know, everyone around me was like, you know,

54
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 5: you know, this is it. This is kind of a

55
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 5: huge moment, and you know, we stuff it on fourth

56
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 5: down or on third and third and short or fourth

57
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 5: and d I'm not sure exactly what it was, but

58
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 5: it ended up being one of the bigger players in

59
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 5: the game. Derek Jensen blocks a punt. That's a big thing,

60
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 5: and I run to start the game, and ironically enough

61
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,799
Speaker 5: backed up second. I think it was second and long.

62
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 5: It was the play that ended up beating us. Earlier

63
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 5: in the year, it was Joe Washington on a screen.

64
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: So we're in the other side though.

65
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 5: Charlie Sumner, who was an old bear or a legged

66
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 5: old bear. You know, there were a lot of bears

67
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 5: on our staff. Guys that played with Doug Atkins really

68
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 5: really tough guys, and Charlie was a great coordinator, and uh,

69
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 5: we were simple.

70
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 6: We didn't we We ran.

71
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 5: Maybe two blitzes a game because our corners didn't have

72
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 5: to even get in the huddle because they were in

73
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 5: cover one or you know. And our guy from Mike

74
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 5: Haynes Haynes and Lester Hayes, and they were two very different.

75
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 5: Lester was a converted linebacker playing corner from Texas A

76
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 5: and m I think, and Mike Haynes was poetry and

77
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 5: you know, just mirrored what it was kind of like Reevus.

78
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 5: It was kind of like that kind of thing.

79
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 7: It was like, well, was he a smart did he

80
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 7: study a bunch? Because usually what I always saw off

81
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 7: with the best corners that I played with, they could

82
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 7: cheat because they knew situationally what concepts you would run,

83
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 7: said they would run the route for you because they

84
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 7: were so dialed into formation. You know, Like that's what

85
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,359
Speaker 7: I saw with like the best I don't know, but

86
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 7: there's some guys I don't know that just you just

87
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 7: say cover him.

88
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 5: Lester in my mind, who should be in the Hall

89
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 5: of Fame. Was a weekend in Vegas. Yeah, you know

90
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 5: it was. He was up and on you, and it

91
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 5: was all or you know, I'm hit me on a sixteen,

92
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. Yeah, Mike was it was

93
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 5: like he was just looking in a mirror and just

94
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 5: cover the shit out of him. Yeah, and could do

95
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 5: it all day long.

96
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,960

00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 2: his physical limitations.

161
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 8: He likes better, likes to be s what's that mean?

162
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 6: Bullshit?

163
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: Wonderful start a podcast yelling at people.

164
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 2: We do love the bullshit. Once the ball in his hands,

165
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 2: football in things will help him as a wide receiver,

166
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 2: has the feet to play defensive back.

167
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 1: They're right about that.

168
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 2: Most competitive guy I've ever coached.

169
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 6: The see that seed.

170
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 8: But that's pretty good remarks, you know, mine said? All right,

171
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 8: So there's a lot of things that that you can

172
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 8: say about offensive lineman. Right, they talk about lower body strength,

173
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 8: has a good wing span, real good punch, great drive

174
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 8: off the ball, initial contact, you know, drops his hips.

175
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 8: I mean, there's all kind of really short spaced quickness.

176
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 8: Blah blah blah blah blah. None of that was said

177
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 8: for me, you know, you know mine said, I swear

178
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 8: to God. Basically mine was, He's coachable.

179
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 6: That's it. That's it. He's coachable.

180
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 8: And I don't even know why that would even translate

181
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 8: to anything that would actually help me get drafted, But

182
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 8: basically I was coachable and having never seen anything, never

183
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 8: seen a draft in my life, when I got drafted

184
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 8: by New England, I thought I was going to some

185
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:54,199
Speaker 8: other country.

186
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 6: I didn't know where New England was either.

187
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 8: I had no clue. Man, I wouldn't have been able

188
00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 8: to throw at dart and come close.

189
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 6: Now I knew me because of Madden.

190
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 7: I didn't know where Foxborough was though, never heard of it,

191
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 7: because you guys were winning Super Bowl.

192
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 6: So I used to play with the guys there once

193
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 6: in a while. Yeah, became relevant. Yeah, So that was

194
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 6: my world.

195
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 8: Man, I didn't know anything about the game of football.

196
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 8: You know, blessed to do it. And and honestly, man,

197
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 8: you know, just just the people we got in those

198
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 8: early years, especially man like the you know, I think

199
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 8: back on these guys, these guys like Roman Fifer and

200
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 8: Grant Williams and man, so many guys that you know,

201
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 8: the uh Rodney man. Oh man, you know, Jermaine Wiggins,

202
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 8: you know, gosh, man, we had Mike Compton's we had

203
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 8: we had all these guys that we didn't have our

204
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 8: you know, we weren't individually announced. You know, that was

205
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 8: a big deal. But that's because none of us, you know,

206
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 8: were above the other.

207
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know what I mean.

208
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 8: Like I used to always say this man Bill could

209
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,839
Speaker 8: do it the way he did it, and he could

210
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 8: drive all of our dicks in the dirt every single

211
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 8: day because we were all in the same pit of despair.

212
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 8: If if there was somebody that was up on a

213
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,439
Speaker 8: ledge looking down on us, that was a teammate, it

214
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 8: wouldn't have worked, you know, when you and by the way,

215
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 8: there were times that he did show some favoritism and

216
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 8: that's when things got ugly in the locker room.

217
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 7: Defense on defense, but but but if we had a

218
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 7: good practice on offense, we had a bad practice as

219
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 7: a team. Yeah, like if we dominated the defense, we had.

220
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 6: A bad practice, no doubt.

221
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 2: Next we have Lashawn McCoy talking about his iconic snow

222
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 2: game performances. But the elephant in the room leading up

223
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 2: to this game the weather.

224
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 6: Yeah it was.

225
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: It was ugly.

226
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 2: It was sixteen point seven inches of snow. Didn't stop

227
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,839
Speaker 2: the entire game. Nine inches during the game.

228
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 1: Nine inches as Buffy, this is crazy. I said, boys,

229
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: let me get the rock.

230
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 7: I got you, you said in that pregame, and get

231
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 7: the rock, said in front of the whole team, the

232
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 7: pre team where that of the offense.

233
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: Offense, boys, let me get the rock.

234
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 6: It was a cool game.

235
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 9: The cool thing about the snow where people don't understand

236
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 9: is that I love it so much because when I

237
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 9: get tackled, it's like falling on pillows.

238
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, the big factors hit me. It don't hurt. Think

239
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: about that hurt And they can't get the attraction. But

240
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: I can sign me up. It's an advent.

241
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 7: I always played well on the snow as well as

242
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 7: I house to punt in Chicago in the snow.

243
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 9: Did you did you play any like like college games

244
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 9: and so yeah, Northern Illinois.

245
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 1: I went to schooling in Ohio, Kent State. Is this

246
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: the best snow game of all time?

247
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 10: No?

248
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 1: You had another, another good one. I had twenty yards

249
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 1: in the snow before. But before this or after before?

250
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: What was you were with Philly? Who did you play? Detroit? Detroit?

251
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 6: You never seen that game?

252
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 1: That megatron they always show he has all the snow

253
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: on his helmet. That's that's the game. I think that's

254
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: the game. This is two hundred and then what was

255
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: this one forty? Did you have one forty or.

256
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 2: One fifty fifty two? I believe so?

257
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 7: Are you the the greatest snow running back of all time?

258
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: Sorry?

259
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 4: I don't know.

260
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know other facts that's playing this though.

261
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 2: You know I'm gonna say yes.

262
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 1: I'm saying yes, not a It's not a bad answer.

263
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 1: It's not a bad answer now, guys, but I don't know.

264
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: I'm a humble guy, man, I'm humble.

265
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 2: Come on now now. Reggie Bush on winning the Heisman.

266
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: He's the cutback the Heisman moment, I think so, I

267
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: think it is. I think that was a moment that's

268
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: when you knew you had it? Were you still nervous?

269
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 7: Game?

270
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 11: Is when I felt like I had solidified it because

271
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 11: it was still you know, talk about you know, some

272
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 11: other guys.

273
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 1: I think Adrian Peterson was up for the Heisman Trophy

274
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: this year. I think young Vince Young.

275
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 2: D' Angelo Williams was the Angelo.

276
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 1: Angelo.

277
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 11: Shout out to D'Angelo and Vince, my guys. And that's

278
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 11: what I love about, you know, games like this. You know,

279
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 11: there's I've built friendships with eyes now that you know,

280
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 11: I played against Vince Young and they beat us, and

281
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 11: me and him are you know cool now friends? And

282
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 11: so you know, it's just it's just it's great. That's

283
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 11: why I love the game. But I was cool Vince

284
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 11: until I hit him and I broke my back. Fucking

285
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 11: this wasn't like, this wasn't college Vince when he was

286
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 11: thin and so this is Philadelphia, Evince. I was playing

287
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 11: defense and you know Vince was a little thicker. I

288
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 11: hit him square in the middle and broke my back.

289
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 11: I led the league in ice hot packs from there

290
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 11: on out. That's what my leading stat was. Oh my god,

00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 4: in a brick wall brick.

294
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 7: And I you know, you go high, you get a

295
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 7: penalty because I was playing corner at a corner blitz.

296
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: Wait he was playing corner.

297
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,600

00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 7: so I had a corner blitz.

299
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,040

00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 11: Five games at corner when we into Super Bowl? Might

302
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 11: have sound like it was a couple of years.

303
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 7: I'm like, the Super Bowl AFC Championship, I had, like

00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: Up, guys hurt. I do remember this now we were

306
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: banged up.

307
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 2: Next up, Antonio Gates on learning the game from scratch.

308
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 7: Walk me through how you transitioned in like that first

309
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,880

310
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: Talk me through that.

311
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 7: Because I couldn't even get into a fucking receiver stance.

312
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 7: Bro I watched my rookie mini camps. I watched my

313
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 7: rookie mini camp recently or like a year ago, and

314
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 7: I'm sitting here looking like the hunchback of Notre Dame

Speaker 7: trying to take off on a release. Walk me through

316
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 7: how you transition because you didn't even play the spy.

317
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 4: Right, what dude, Like, you know what I'm saying, It's

318
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 4: the same for everybody. Man, it's the it's the you know,

319
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 4: it's the progression. It's stages, right, you know that's stage

320
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 4: one for me and you that ain't that don't change,

321
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 4: you know. For me, it was even you know, probably

322
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 4: more complicated, you know, the range of which I had

323
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 4: to come from because I didn't play college football. But

324
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 4: I think it served me somewhat on an advantage because

325
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 4: I didn't have any what I would like to consider credit.

326
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 4: I didn't have any bad habits. I'm like, you're a

327
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 4: fresh canvas, right, So I was learning from a clean slate.

328
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 4: But I'm like, gosh, right, but unlike you know, unlike

329
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 4: people that's like you know what I'm saying. They come

330
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 4: in and they already learned how to run, you know, learn,

331
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 4: So now you're trying to change what you learned in

332
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 4: Kent State, say a god, come from miskan Or, Ohio.

333
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 4: They changing what they've already learned for three or four years.

334
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 4: And I didn't have to change nothing. I just had

335
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 4: to learn it from the first time. So I felt

336
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 4: like it was somewhat easier for me. Like credit. You

337
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 4: better to have no credit than bad credit. Right, So

338
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 4: it was like I felt like I was it was

339
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 4: a little easier transition. Now it wasn't easy. I just

340
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 4: felt like it was easier. I didn't get in the stands.

341
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, right, I couldn't understand.

342
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 10: Motion, remember right, yeah right, I'm not Yeah, I'm trying

343
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 10: to see what covers of that, right.

344
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 4: So I got to a point I was so bad.

345
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 4: They just told me to just stand up, just do

346
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 4: what you want to do. Days.

347
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 10: Yeah, iuld stand up at the end of the line,

348
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 10: I would do whatever because they got to be worried

349
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 10: about what I'm doing at this point, why I'm worried

350
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 10: about what they're doing.

351
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 4: So yeah, it got to that level. But the idea

352
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 4: was I just remember learning watching who. I thought. Like

353
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 4: when you said watching who, I thought, who is your guy?

354
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 4: I mean, we had a guy called Eric named Eric

355
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 4: Parker who played receiver from Tennessee and he was our

356
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 4: starting receiver. And obviously you know we had Keenan mc

357
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 4: carter came along, but Eric Parker to me initially was

358
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 4: a guy who ran robs to the tea, dropped his weight.

359
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 4: I mean, coming at you full speed, drop his way,

360
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 4: and I mean two or three steps he coming out.

361
00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 4: He ain't overstepping to come out like everything your tone.

362
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 4: I'm like, this is why he's starting simple, this is

363
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 4: why he's starting right. And then I was as I'm

364
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 4: mature and I got a chance to go to the

365
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 4: Pro Bowls and I start watching Marvin Harrison. He was

366
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,440
Speaker 4: another guy that I would watch in practice and like,

367
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 4: this is crazy to me. This is perfect to me.

368
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 4: You know, even though I'm playing tight end, I'm still

369
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 4: with the vision of what I think a perfect rot

370
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 4: runner looks like.

371
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 3: Now.

372
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 2: Vernon Davis on his NFL Draft and Combine experience.

373
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 12: Going to the draft, it was, man, it was like

374
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 12: I just kept hearing that song by eminem you only

375
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 12: get one shot. I missed your chance to you know,

376
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 12: opportunities come once in the lifetime. That song just kept

377
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,679
Speaker 12: going off inside my mind. Then when I got to

378
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 12: the Combine, I started listening to that song and I

379
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 12: just I knew I was only going to get one

380
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 12: shot and if I didn't capitalize on it, that was it.

381
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 12: Because being at Maryland, you know, I wasn't. Yeah, I

382
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 12: was up for the MACKI every week and things of

383
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 12: that nature. Sure, but they didn't talk about me much.

384
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 12: It was always Mercedes Lewis. Mercedes Lewis. He was, you know,

385
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 12: he was the big shot when it came came to

386
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 12: the tight end position, and I knew that I had

387
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,359
Speaker 12: to go to this combine and I had to outperform everyone.

388
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 4: And I did.

389
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 12: And in between that time, after I had my performance

390
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 12: and getting drafted, oh that was all that was. My

391
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 12: agent was coming up to me. He's like, you got

392
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 12: a shot. You got a chance to get drafted the

393
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 12: top top ten, top ten, it's always top ten. But

394
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,880
Speaker 12: I would go to these meetings and I started meeting

395
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 12: with these teams, you know, you meet with the teams

396
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 12: and things of that nature. And I met with the

397
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,159
Speaker 12: Jets and I knew they had the fourth pick they

398
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 12: were get they had the fourth pick in the draft.

399
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 12: I said, I'm about to be I'm about to be

400

00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 12: to utilize me at the position.

404
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:53,920

Speaker 9: the game. Yeah, I mean, I don't even remember watching

438

439
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 9: I don't remember watching the game. I mean I see

440
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 9: the highlights of the game, but not the full game.

441
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 9: You didn't see them very much. I'm just kind of

442
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 9: trying to correlate. Probably divisional round.

443
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,679
Speaker 7: You take all the bad from it and you move on,

444
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 7: and you're already thinking about, yeah, the next game.

445
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 9: You know, that was my This was my first playoff game.

446
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 9: But you know, I knew I could play. I'm not

447
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 9: even worried about it. I don't know, that's the least

448
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 9: of my worried. But when you don't have a quarterback,

449
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 9: sometimes things don't go the way you need to.

450
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 1: But I had the.

451
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 9: Hot, hottest quarterback in the National Football League that year

452
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 9: was Vinnie testa Verdi, who came in I think it

453
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 9: was four games into the season. After we binge Glenn Foley,

454
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 9: we brought in Vinnie. Vinnie didn't even play the entire

455
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 9: season and yeah, I just I don't know, I just

456
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 9: treated like a normal game. But that's you know, that

457
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 9: was just the way I always as West, and it

458
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,360
