1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Joe Montana joining us on the program courtesy 3 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:16,760 Speaker 1: a Guinness. How's life, Joe, Joe, I can't hear you. 4 00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: You can't hear me. Yeah, hold on, hold on a second. 5 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: There we go. Okay, mister Patrick. How are you doing? 6 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: Everything good? Everything's good? How about you good? How many 7 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: Guinness have you had today? I put it in my 8 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: coffee cup and looking until no one would know. Did 9 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: you eat on game day? On Super Bowl Day? I 10 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: very little um. And there was this thing that cod 11 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: come out well while we were playing that if you 12 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: had a stomach full of food or too empty, you 13 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: know it affected you know, your reaction time. So I 14 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: tried to eat something like a piece of a little 15 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: piece of steak and maybe some eggs or something, and 16 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: then get out of there and just just enough to 17 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: keep my stomach busy but not full, and then take 18 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: candy bar or two for halftime, and I was ready 19 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 1: to Bill Russell famously used to throw up before games. 20 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: I don't know, did you get nervous where you would 21 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 1: throw up? No, I've never thrown up. That's not been 22 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 1: one of my favorite things in the world to do 23 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: it to begin with, but especially before a game. Yeah, 24 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: I've gotten nervous. I think we all do. And I 25 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,960 Speaker 1: think you know, if you're not nervous, and then you 26 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: really don't care about your performance. But you're not allowed 27 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 1: to be nervous because you're the quarterback. You're Joe cool, 28 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: So you like, you can't show that you're nervous, can you? No? 29 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think that's you know, I 30 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: always tried to be myself, but I think inside there's 31 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: always that little butterfly that you know, you want that 32 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: little bit of of nervousness because I think it shows 33 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: that it cares about you, care about what you're about 34 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: to do, and you know, how you play means something. 35 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 1: If it didn't really mean anything, you know, then yeah, 36 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: I'd rather have people nerves a little bit nervous, too, 37 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: nervous right the affection. Then would you rather have the 38 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: lead but the other quarterback has the ball with two 39 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: minutes to go, or be down and you have the 40 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: ball with two minutes to go, I'd rather have a ball. 41 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: I'd rather have the outcome on my hands than anything else. 42 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: It's just, you know, although we had great defenses, so 43 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: but it's just I don't know, It's just I don't know. 44 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: I want to be part of that. I want I 45 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: want to make I want to have something to say 46 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 1: in the outcome rather than to watch and not have 47 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 1: any input. So did you how many times do you 48 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: go to the line of scrimmage and you knew it 49 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 1: was going to be a touchdown in your Super Bowl games? 50 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: I think it in some of the cases. Yeah, you 51 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 1: could just tell buy immediate lineup where you were going 52 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: to go, and that it was just a matter of 53 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: trying to move keep somebody out of a play. And 54 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: you had ideas that I know it was going to 55 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: be a touchdown in the Super Bowl to win, not 56 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: until the ball was snapped and the safety split and 57 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: I knew we had an opportunity that the one to 58 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: John Taylor. Now I'm I'm behind the goal post when 59 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: you had the touchdown pass to Jerry and it was 60 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: a crossing pattern and I could see it unfold, So 61 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: I know you could see it unfold, but it was like, 62 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: oh no, that's a touchdown and you hadn't even thrown 63 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: the ball yet. Yeah, you know as soon as you 64 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: see that field open up, and and actually that was 65 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: supposed to be a hook, and the hook with man 66 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: and man for us, we had so many adjustments. When 67 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: you get tight coverage, he just takes it into a cross. 68 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: And so as soon as you saw that happened, the 69 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: field just opened up and it's like, oh my god, 70 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: don't miss him, just don't miss him. Which the NFC 71 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: title game that still bothers you. Um, the one I 72 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: got hurt because we were winning. We had a chance 73 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: to go, you know, to three in a row, um, 74 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: and that was Leonard Marshall or Jim Bird Leonard Marshall, Yeah, 75 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: you know, and that and I think the Washington those 76 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: two games, you know, because we had won, we thought 77 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: we had won the Washington we lost to them and 78 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: there was a little phantom holding call on Ronnie Lott 79 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: on the other side of the field. So it was 80 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: one of those things where you didn't have control and 81 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 1: you know, they ended up going down and scoring and 82 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: then you know, they went on to win the Super Bowl. 83 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 1: But we had a good team again that year. So 84 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 1: if you can start your franchise with anybody but you 85 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: at quarterback al time, um O, don't know these two 86 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: guys playing today, it'd be hard. They're so different. Um, 87 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: and I'd take I'd take them both. You only get one, Joe, Well, 88 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: I need a backup. Steve Young is the backup. Um, 89 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, they're so different. Dan. Uh, you know 90 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: you have to take Brady. I think it's hard to 91 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: not to take Mahomes. But but if you're looking at 92 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: records and success or are you looking at a future. 93 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 1: If I'm looking at the future, I take Mahomes. If 94 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 1: I'm looking at trying to win now, Um, and you're 95 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: just starting and putting a team together, I take Tom. 96 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: So different different scenarios. How often have you spoken to Brady? 97 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: The last time I spoke to him, we were at 98 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: the last Super Bowl with one hundred addivershy team. But 99 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: he's a football talk or just family talk. Uh. That 100 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: was a little mostly football at that time. It's usually 101 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: a little bit mixed in of both, but most of 102 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 1: the time it's Uh. But it's what you want to 103 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: know from you football lines. Nothing. He doesn't need to 104 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: know anything. No, I think he's got to handle. But 105 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: when he had two Super Bowls, maybe he could have 106 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 1: learned something from you. He was on his way. You know. 107 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,039 Speaker 1: It was one of those things you could tell that 108 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: you know what he was doing, and the ability that 109 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 1: he had to make the guys around him better. You know, 110 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: it's kind of what we're talking about with this with 111 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: Guinness and the Goat commercials, making people around you better, 112 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: and you know he has that ability obviously. You can 113 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: see when he moved down to Tampa. Now Tampa, Yeah, 114 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: they put up a lot of yards and a lot 115 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: of touchdowns last year without him, but you know, all around, 116 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 1: he just makes people better on both sides of the ball. 117 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: And so I don't think he really needed any guidance 118 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: at that point. We look at Brady. Maybe maybe we 119 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: don't look at Brady the way we do Lebron, But 120 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: like Lebron can't be as great as Michael because Mike 121 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: won six titles, never lost, whereas Lebron has. I always 122 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: think we never give credit to the guy who got 123 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: to the title game, even if he did lose. Like 124 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: John Elway, it was always held against him. It's like, oh, 125 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: he got blown out in Super Bowls. He got his 126 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: team there, and the same with Brady. You get there 127 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: and yes you've won, but you've also lost. And I 128 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: wonder about that of how much credit do we give 129 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: or do we put blame on guys who lose Super Bowls? 130 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: Do we still do that? I don't think you put 131 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: a blame on him. I just for some reason, they 132 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: get kind of left out of the Look at Jim Kelly. 133 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: I mean, look at what he did in Buffalo so 134 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: many times. And I joke around with him because after 135 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: they beat us when we were in Kansas City. But seriously, 136 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: you should just let us go because you guys are 137 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: gonna go there and wait that to Jim Kelly that 138 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: you guys you're gonna go and screw it up. Yeah, 139 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: we've been good friends for a long time, so I 140 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 1: feel comfortable saying it. You should have let us go. 141 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: That's great. We're talking to Joe Montana joining us courtesy 142 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: of Guinness.

We've got a big game coming up, 170 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,439 Speaker 1: and enjoy your guinness, but you know, let's do it responsibly. 171 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: At the same time, and it's been a great partnership. 172 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 1: And you know, I fell in love with Guinness when 173 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: when girls were jumping horses and we went to Ireland 174 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: and you know, a horse trainer said let's go get 175 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: a Guinness and I was like, okay, um, And like 176 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: most people, I was thinking, a wow, look at thing 177 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: is dark and heavy and I can't get it. But 178 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: when you taste it, it's light and smooth and much 179 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: different than you expect and I expect. And I fell 180 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: in love over there. And so every day after that, 181 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: I'm going Charlie as time to go get a Guinness. 182 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: Well it's like dessert over there. Oh no. And then 183 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: and then you know, them getting associated with the Notre 184 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: Dame alumni and the fans just made a lot of 185 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: sense to be a part of This is part of 186 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: their program. And you have the comeback. I think it's 187 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: in the Cotton Bowl against Houston and this year senior year, 188 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 1: and I'm wondering if how important was that comeback to 189 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: maybe how teams viewed you as a quarterback. So as 190 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: you went in the third round and I don't know 191 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: that was a famous comeback. You were sick at halftime, 192 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: frigid conditions there and you somehow had this amazing comeback. 193 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if I had any impact impact on 194 00:10:55,120 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: your draft status. Um. You know, it's so crazy about 195 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: the draft because all those guys, like a bunch of 196 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 1: teams said well, we're gonna take you in the first round, 197 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: or we're gonna take you in the second round, and 198 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: everything slips by, and you're going, oh my god, what 199 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: am I even going to get an opportunity? And that's 200 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: all I was looking for. It's hard to it was 201 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: hard to compete against. You know what they look for. 202 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: They're looking for size and strength and arm strength and 203 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: I didn't have any of that. And you know, we're 204 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: throwing the ball in nineteen twenty times a game you know, 205 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 1: Jack Thompson coming out the same year was thrown at fifty, 206 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: and it's like, you know, you compare those numbers, you know, 207 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 1: and you know, I'd always laugh and say, if at 208 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: the combine they put two twenty five and see how 209 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 1: many times you could invent, I might still be laying. 210 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: And so I don't know. I think that that game 211 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: was fun, and you know I tried to give it 212 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: away a bunch of times and It's just like we 213 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: talked about.

So I wanted to look for I'm 234 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: looking everywhere Okay, wait, wait, wait, wait, is this gonna 235 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: upset Troy? No? No, it feels like this is time, 236 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: so I'm gonna upset Troy. No. I just was trying 237 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: to find a day. This says ports history where the 238 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: Cowboys what a super Bowl? But I don't. I just 239 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: have three years ago the Eagles won the Super Bowl, 240 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: just to remind him that the Eagles won on this day. 241 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: Troy's got three rings, he doesn't care. None were on 242 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: February fourth. Let's bringing Troy Aikman here. What worse fan 243 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: base to deal with based off being a cowboy quarterback 244 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: mclovin and those Philadelphia Yeah, that's a pretty good fan base. 245 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: The Eagles they're not quite as edgy. I don't think 246 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: now that they've won a Super Bowl tough, But what 247 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: would they say to you or that you could make out? 248 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: Oh many they said at all? You know, they're For 249 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: a while I thought that the Eagles fans really did 250 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 1: not want to win a Super Bowl, that they kind 251 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: of liked the badge, that they could just be better 252 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: and angry and kind of let it rip. But uh, yeah, 253 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: they're they're a loyal group. I mean, they travel well, 254 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,839 Speaker 1: they're they're fun, and especially at the VET the old 255 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: stadium where I used to play. Oh god, it was 256 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 1: a horrible playing surface. Yeah, horrible. Could you leave the state? 257 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,959 Speaker 1: Could you leave your hotel when you're in Philadelphia? Uh? 258 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: Well I never left my hotel no matter where I was. Now, 259 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: if you asked Michael Urban, he might have. Was there 260 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: ever a time that you were leaving the hotel and 261 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: Mike was coming in? No? No, I never caught him. 262 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: I think he had. He had his exit routes and 263 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: his re entry routes down pretty good. Did you ever 264 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: pull him aside, though, and say, Mike, you know, come on, 265 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: I mean you no, no, no, And I'll tell you 266 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: why dan um. I mean, he made no secrets about it. 267 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: We'd be a training camp and he'd be telling me 268 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: kind of you know, what he had been doing, and 269 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: and I had no issue and we laugh about it. 270 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I think probably the the stories are probably 271 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: a lot more sensational than what they really were. But 272 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: Michael was the hardest working guy we had on our team. 273 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: So as long as he was practicing, and I didn't 274 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: notice anything that was taken away from our efforts at 275 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 1: practice and then in games. And that was how I 276 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: felt about everybody. I mean, everybody was free to do 277 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: whatever they wanted as long as it didn't impact our preparation. Yeah. 278 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: But there's that story that Dion Sanders tells when when 279 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 1: he first one, he first joined the Cowboys, and Michael 280 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: had a party for him at a hotel room and 281 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: Dion walked into the room and he said, Mike, I 282 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: don't live like this. Dion quickly went out of the 283 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 1: room and Mike did back it up and he Mike 284 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: loved it. I mean, he was like, you know, thank sure, 285 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: he said, yeah, I'm telling the truth. You know, you 286 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: got Michael Irvin and m and Smith on Dancing with 287 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: the Stars, so you're the loan hold out with the triplets. 288 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: Have you been approached to be on Dancing with the Stars. 289 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: I have, I've been asked twice. It's been a while, 290 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: but yeah, it it's not something Dan I even considered. 291 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a nice deal for a lot of 292 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: a lot of guys, and a lot of guys have 293 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: been able to go out and have success on that show. 294 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: And then of course Aaron Andrews was one of the 295 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: hosts of the show and working with her all these years. 296 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's you can't fake that one, Dan, I mean, 297 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: you got to really put the time in and I 298 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: can't dance and I don't enjoy it. So I don't 299 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: think there's any part of that that would fit for me. 300 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: I had a couple of things here. Can you tell 301 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: me what Aaron Rodgers was saying after that loss in 302 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: the NFC title game? Yeah, I'm really not sure. I 303 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: think that maybe the devastation of losing that game kind 304 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: of put him in a different place and that's why 305 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: he responded the way that he did. I wasn't really 306 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: certain what he was trying to communicate. I do know, Dan, 307 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 1: that throughout the season, you know, we had Green Band 308 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: number of times talked to Aaron each time before those games, 309 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: and he was always in a good place. Always liked 310 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: the situation there at Green Bay, Matt Laflour and the 311 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: connection that they had and the relationship. So I was surprised. 312 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: But having lost that game before, I know how devastating 313 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: that can be. If you were the Texans GM, what 314 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: approach would you take. Well, the first thing I would 315 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: do is make amends with Deshaun Watson. You know, he's 316 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: just too great of a player and he's a franchise 317 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: quarterback and that has to be fixed. And you know, 318 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: I don't know all the details to that, but and 319 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: I don't know Deshaun Watson that well, but what I 320 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,640 Speaker 1: do know of him, he seems like a stand up guy. 321 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: I think he's a good person. And all that sounds 322 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: like he was told something that they didn't follow through with, 323 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: So I understand why he might be upset if in 324 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,400 Speaker 1: fact that's true. And I think that they've they've got 325 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: to go make sure that that relationship is right. They 326 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: need him in order to be the team they need 327 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: to be. What if it's not fixable, well, then they've 328 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: then they've got to address that. And who knows, it 329 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 1: may not be fixable, and if it's not, then unfortunately 330 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 1: for the Texans. I mean, Deshaun Watson's going to be 331 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: fine wherever he goes if he's not playing in Houston, 332 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 1: but for the Houston Texans, and they've got to try 333 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: to address the quarterback situation. And you know, to have 334 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: your guy, to have a franchise quarterback and then all 335 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: of a sudden being the market for trying to find 336 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: another one. A lot of teams out there have shown 337 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: that that's not easy to do. What do you think 338 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: it does to Jared Gupp's confidence level that the Rams 339 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: went all in on him and they go to a 340 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: super Bowl and then next thing you know, you fall 341 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: out of love and they find somebody else. You get 342 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: kicked to the curb. Yeah, you know, it'd be interesting 343 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: to hear what he feels about it. I don't know 344 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: if there's a part of him that maybe wanted to 345 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: leave Los Angeles for whatever reasons. I've been in situations 346 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: where relationships become a little bit, you know, strained, and 347 00:18:54,160 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 1: maybe a different scene is good for him, but you're 348 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: still there. Yeah, someone jumped in here, but are you 349 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: hearing something? No? No, that's uh But anyway, No, I 350 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: think that for Jared to go from the Rams and 351 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: then to Detroit, I think it was a pretty good 352 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: situation for him in Los Angeles, a very quarterback friend 353 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 1: in the offense, and I don't know that he really 354 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: knows what he's with. The changes with coaching staff, something 355 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: to connections not great. But I want you to get 356 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 1: in your plug here with the freed to Lay commercial 357 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: that you're doing the towards the night before the Super Bowl. 358 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: So hopefully the connection will hold out. Yeah, No, it's 359 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: it was a great time, Dan, we you know. I 360 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 1: shot it with Jerry Rice and Joe Montana and had 361 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: a lot of fun with it, and Peter Berg as 362 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 1: the director was fantastic and freed to lay everybody with 363 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: the company was terrific. It's probably the most fun I've 364 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: ever had shooting a commercial, just because of the relationships 365 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 1: that I have with those guys and the way that 366 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: it was pulled together and kind of the tongue in 367 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 1: cheek humor of it all. I think the people who 368 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 1: see the commercial during the Super Bowl they're gonna be 369 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 1: really fired up about it. I think it's a really 370 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: great spot. I thought the one to kick off the 371 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: season twas the Night Before Kickoff was great, and this 372 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: one's pretty special because of all the iconic players that 373 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: are in it. Would you ever bet against Tom Brady 374 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 1: in a Super Bowl? No, I would not. I'm looking 375 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: forward to this. I mean it's gonna be I think 376 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: it every year before these Super Bowl games. But to 377 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: have a guy, it's hard to imagine anyone surpassing what 378 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 1: Tom Brady has accomplished. But if there's anyone who potentially 379 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: could do that, of course, it's gonna take some time. 380 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 1: It would be Patrick Mahomes and I think there's great 381 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: respect between these two teams and two between these two quarterbacks, 382 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be pretty awesome to see how it 383 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: shakes out. But you're competitors. They're part of you that says, 384 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: you know, there are things I do better than Tom 385 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 1: Brady or if yeah, I probably could still outrun him, 386 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, I think although I went to 387 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: Barry's boot camp and I pulled a hamstring a few 388 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: months ago, so I'm still recovering from that. But even 389 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: with that being said, I think I could still outrun him. 390 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: But no, you're a competitor. Is Brady that much better 391 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 1: than you? Well, I think the proofs and the results, 392 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: I think that's life, you know. So from that standpoint, yeah, 393 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: he's twice as good as me, and maybe even more 394 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 1: if he wins on Sunday. That's right. Hey, congratulations with 395 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: the commercial. We look forward to seeing it. Always great 396 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: to see and thanks again for being available for us 397 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: during the season. We appreciate. Thank You're the best. That's 398 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 1: Troy Aikman. He's a Hall of Famer NFL and Fox 399 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: lead color analyst, three times Super Bowl Chimp. Be sure 400 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: to catch the live edition of The Dan Patrick Show 401 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 1: week days at nine am Eastern six am Pacific on 402 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio and the iHeart Radio WAP. This tweet 403 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: for me and Rappaport. The Eagles are getting trade calls 404 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: centered around Carson Wentz, and while Philly doesn't and to 405 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: deal him, they haven't hung up the phones either. Bring 406 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 1: in Peter Schreeger for the NFL Network, Good Morning Football 407 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: and Fox Sports dot Com senior national writer. Do you 408 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 1: believe that that? I believe it's a it's a combination 409 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: of things here. They have a new coach, they had 410 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 1: a new thing, and sometimes you see reports out there 411 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 1: and Ian's probably spot on. The way it's worded is 412 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: always interesting. Does that come from other teams saying we're 413 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,439 Speaker 1: lighting up the phones for Carson Wentz? Or does that 414 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 1: come from Philadelphia throw some crumbs out there to the 415 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: other team saying, hey, maybe you should be calling on 416 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: this guy. It's always interesting this week when everyone is 417 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: all eyes on these quarterbacks, when a team comes out 418 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: of nowhere from left field and says, yeah, we're getting 419 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: calls too, are you now? You got the Kings of 420 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: leon As your backdrop there on this zoom call. Yeah. 421 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 1: I mean, look, when you love a band as much 422 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: as I love the follow Will Brothers, and you got 423 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: to talk about the Kings Leon like they're the rolling 424 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: stones of the Beatles. Come on, guys, So you had 425 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: that up before you heard me talking about the Kings 426 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: of Leon, Is that right? Yeah? Every day, all day, 427 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 1: I've got accus of Leon background. Wait, you're not Kings 428 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: of Leon fan, I am. I liked the actually true story. 429 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: I was at a Super Bowl one year in Dallas 430 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: and I saw Sam Bradford walking with the Kings of Leon. 431 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: And I saw about five hundred women ages twenty one 432 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: to age thirty five just like fall over them, And 433 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,719 Speaker 1: for a moment there, I was slightly jealous of all 434 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: four of those guys. Yeah, but what's Sam Bradford doing 435 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: with the Kings of Leon Oklahoma connection? Oh, guys, Sam Bradford, 436 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: And I think you know Bradford not not the best 437 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: NFL career, but he was. He was pretty popular. That 438 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: line he got paid. That was when it was I 439 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: never understood this, Peter, that you have these rookie contracts 440 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 1: where you got all this money up front and you 441 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 1: weren't proven, and then they finally realized, boy, this really 442 00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: sounds stupid. We're paying all these guys thirty five forty 443 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: million dollars signing bonus when they haven't proven, so we've 444 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: added even more pressure on them when they come in 445 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: to be great. It was I think Bradford was actually 446 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: the last one to get it, but um or he's 447 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: amongst that crew, But those guys Cam Newton, I think 448 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 1: might have been the last he got. Like remember, I 449 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 1: remember Jake Locker got a big deal and walked away 450 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: from the game, And you're like, how could Jake Locker 451 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: walk away from the games? You're not love? It was 452 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: like Jake Locker made it, made eighty million dollars on 453 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 1: his rookie contract. Jake Locker's good. How did the Texans 454 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: handle this? Can they trade to Shaun Watson? They can, 455 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: Absolutely they can. I've spoken a lot of people around 456 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: the league and to Amanda. People are calling the Texans, 457 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: I mean teams that you're hearing rumored. They're calling the 458 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: Texans and Nick Cassario, the new front office chief, and 459 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: the GM who signed a very handsome six year contract 460 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: to make him one of the highest paid jams. In 461 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 1: the league is telling teams like, we're not interested in talking, 462 00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: like straight up, like robotic. We're not talking, so we 463 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: could speculate all we want. There is a confidence in 464 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,399 Speaker 1: that building they can make this right. However, from the 465 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: Watson side, and you heard this from the other teams too, 466 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: there's a belief that he might take this all the 467 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 1: way to training camp and say I'm not putting that 468 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: uniform on again until I get traded. Who's got the 469 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,239 Speaker 1: stomach for this. Is it Watson where he's going to say, 470 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: I'm so upset with the franchise that they didn't lean 471 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: on me for any counselor guidance or my recommendations on 472 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: the coach and the GM, or is it the team 473 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: side that says, listen, new coach, new GM, Let's at 474 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: least talk this out before we go to those drastic measures. 475 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 1: Because you know this, to Shaun Watson, those kind of 476 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: players don't just show up every other year. That's a 477 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 1: franchise player, and no matter who they had a quarterback, 478 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 1: it probably won't be as good as that young man. 479 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: It was five months tomorrow when he signed this contract extension. 480 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 1: He was thrilled. He wrote a letter a thank the owner, 481 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: He thanked everybody changed my life. Everything's great. And then 482 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 1: this is they had already traded DeAndre Hopkins. So what 483 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: happened where DeShawn Watson? I don't want to be here 484 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 1: anymore chronologically, I think you nail it or you say, wait, 485 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: he already traded yet, because everyone says they traded his 486 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 1: best receiver. No, no no, no, they had already traded his 487 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 1: best pier. That wasn't some shock the things that I've heard. 488 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: This is not about Nick Cassario. This isn't even about 489 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: the trade of Hopkins. This is more about the owner 490 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: and Cal McNair and Deshaun Watson apparently had a conversation, 491 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 1: and from everything I hear, this conversation was like, you 492 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:28,880 Speaker 1: are going to be a very important part of our 493 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,679 Speaker 1: next hires. Once Bill O'Brien was fired, whether it be 494 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: the coach and the GM, Watson's voice might have been 495 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 1: out there. He might have said something, He might have 496 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: suggested names. Those names were not brought in for interviews. 497 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: They hired Nick Cassario without asking Deshaun Watson's approval, which 498 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 1: I think historically would never ask a player's approval. All 499 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 1: the GM, and then with the coaches, No Robert Sala interview. 500 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: A few other names weren't interviewed, and they didn't even 501 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: get him on the door. And from another team, Dan 502 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: I thought this is interesting. In another year you might say, okay, 503 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: well come on to Shawn. I'm like, whatever, do you 504 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 1: know how easy it is to just interview the guys 505 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 1: he recommended and do it on zoom? Yeah, it's a 506 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: two hour zoom two hours. You check the box, even 507 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 1: if you have no interest in what he says. If 508 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: you told him you were going to listen to him 509 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: and he said, hey, you gotta interview Robert Salo and 510 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 1: that's just an example of a name. Two hours on 511 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 1: zoom with Robert Salom might have been a waste of 512 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: solid stone him, but what's what's the expense? Just do it? 513 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 1: They didn't do it. First of all, they never should 514 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: have given him that power because all these marquee quarterbacks 515 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 1: don't have that power. And you're gonna give it to 516 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. He's got a no trade clock, like the 517 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 1: Texans created this and then all of a sudden it's like, 518 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: wait a minute, what happened here? This house is on fire? Well, yeah, 519 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 1: helped start the fire there, and now Deshaun Watson wants 520 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: to run out of a burning building. And I mean, 521 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: look again, the verbiage were talking about Ian's report about 522 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: Wentz you go to with Watsons, that's he's requesting a trade. 523 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 1: And the next day I came out and I got 524 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 1: some slack from from people because I was like, is 525 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,360 Speaker 1: he requesting a trade or demanding a trade? Because are 526 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: you requesting a divorce that doesn't have the same I'm 527 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 1: demanding a divorce. So what happens with Watson over the 528 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: next few months of be interesting because once free agency 529 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: is over, once the draft is over, their options get 530 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: really limited. Then does this guy have the stomach because 531 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: there's a new CBA and a new CBA, they can 532 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 1: find you all they want for miss practices, you don't 533 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 1: get that money back. You can't get that money back. 534 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: That's part of the new CBA. So he could be 535 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: fined up to two million dollars if he doesn't show up, 536 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,120 Speaker 1: and contractually he's there not only for this huge extension, 537 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 1: but for three years of the franchise tag too. Does 538 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: he have the stomach to really ride this out? Peter 539 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 1: Schreger is host of NFL networks Good Morning Football, which 540 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: airs money through Friday. They started seven Eastern and NFL 541 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: Network providing more than seventy hours of lying Super Bowl coverage, 542 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: including eight and a half hour edition of NFL Game 543 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: Day Morning, Good God Super Bowl Sunday at nine Eastern 544 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: with our buddy Rich Eisen. There hasn't been a buzz 545 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: about this, And I don't know how much of this 546 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: is that the media is not there, Peter, but if 547 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: we were there, because the storylines, if we look at him, 548 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: don't really have to do with the Super Bowl as 549 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: much as they do. Scottie Miller says he's the fastest 550 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: player in the NFL. WHOA, we broke that story by 551 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: the way we played the clip. Yep, you have Deshaun Watson, 552 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: drama Carson when situation a coach gets hired, Eric b 553 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 1: Enemy does not Brady Belichick. So the game itself, even 554 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: though we're it's about Brady and Patrick Mahomes and if 555 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: Brady wins one more then Mahomes will never catch him. 556 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: And if he has, you know, his second Super Bowl, 557 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 1: he's gonna catch him. Where is the buzz on this game? 558 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: For a game that should be great but it doesn't 559 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: feel like it's there. It's so true. You say that, 560 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: and you know we're on the NFL network three hours 561 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: every morning, and I feel it we're not there. So 562 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: the buzz usually you have the wall to wall coverage 563 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: and there's the scenics of Tampa and everyone's walking around. 564 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: It's not there. And that is because of the pandemic, 565 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: because of the pin that doesn't feel like we're getting 566 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: the same buzz. Because this game is awesome. It has 567 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: every storyline we could have ever wanted. I mean, we 568 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: turned Tom Brady and Jared Goff into a Super Bowl bonanza. 569 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: We could certainly turn Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes. There's 570 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 1: two amazing storylines here. It's Mahomes and the Chiefs going 571 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: for back to back, which hasn't been done since oh 572 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: three oh four, and then it's Brady Brady. Is such 573 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 1: an amazing story To do this in first year. But 574 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: to your point, I wonder if it's more hypothetical right 575 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: now with what will this mean legacy wise? What does 576 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 1: this do for the great debate at the bar five 577 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: years from now? How do we look back on this 578 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: Super Bowl as far as if it was a passing 579 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: of the torch or if Brady stiff arming Mahomes. But 580 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: right now, like today on the show, I'll be planted 581 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: with you. I was talking about the offensive line injuries 582 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: from the Chiefs and how Ramers is in and now 583 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: you're doing Andrew Wiley right and I'm getting bored of 584 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: myself talking about offensive line play and I can sense it, 585 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: and I think it's just going to have to be 586 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: one of those deals where we're not there on the ground. 587 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 1: But come Sunday and you see JPP and Shack Barrett 588 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 1: blowing up Patrick Mall and you're saying, Wow, we got 589 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 1: a game here, and Brady's got the ball in the 590 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. We got a game here. The hype might 591 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: not be there, but this game is going to deliver. 592 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: Would you rather have Brady's career or what Mahomes's career 593 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: could possibly be that, I mean, that's why you're the best. 594 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: That's a great question, Like you're taking the unknown, which 595 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: is on this incredible toured pace or what we do 596 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 1: know and it's still kind of going. I would take 597 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: Brady or take Brady. I would take Brady because of 598 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: the accomplishments over the great great Land time span. I 599 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: don't know what happens to Mahomes ten years down the road. 600 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: But I'd be hard pressed to think he's gonna do 601 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: seven Super Bowls and fourteen AFC or NFC championship games 602 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,479 Speaker 1: in twenty years. I'm going to remind you of this 603 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 1: question in like ten years from now. I know. Let's 604 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 1: just let's just hope the two of us are doing 605 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: the same exact thing and take years. The Rams Lions trade. 606 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 1: We had Aaron Donald on and in fact we're going 607 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 1: to play that interview coming up a little bit, but 608 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: he said he was shocked that should he have been 609 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: shocked that the Rams sent did Jared Golf to the 610 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: lines and they got Matthew Stafford. I've got to be 611 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: careful here because I've got relationships on both sides. I'll 612 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: just say it now. We were five days removed. McVeigh 613 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 1: was over golf. It was done. But when when did 614 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: that happen? Peter? Was it after the Niners game? No, 615 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 1: it happened this year, and it wasn't necessarily all Jared's 616 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: doing like this. I think the defense being being the 617 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 1: leader in this thing. Mcveay not being able to do 618 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: the same things that Lafleur was able to do with 619 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: Rogers and what he's watching, you know other teams do, 620 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: and nothing against Jared personally. Jared Golf went twenty one 621 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: to twenty six through a touchdown pass and lambau Field 622 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 1: with nine fingers. I thought that was pretty good and 623 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: pretty tough. But once they got to this point, it 624 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: was either do we try to rebuild this thing or 625 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: do we just move on? For both of us and 626 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: McVeigh wanted to move on. And once Stafford came into 627 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: his life, and when I say came into his life, 628 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: it meant the thought of Stafford and the and the 629 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: wonder of what he can do with his arm strength 630 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: and how smart and how cerebrals. It was over and 631 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: McVeagh made the call. And it's a business, and I 632 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: think Sean is going to be respectful to Jared and 633 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: he'll also be unapologetic that he believes that this team 634 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: had run its course with Jared Goff and he wanted 635 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford. Golf can make him look foolish. If Golf 636 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 1: goes on to have this incredible career in Detroit or 637 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 1: even anywhere else he ends up, he can make McVeigh 638 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: look wrong. But as someone from the RAM side, told me, 639 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: are we living or are we existing? They want to live? 640 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: Is Stafford that much of an upgrade over Golf? Not 641 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 1: my decision? They think so. No, but I'm curious if 642 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:35,479 Speaker 1: you think so. I don't. I don't think he's a 643 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: huge upgrade. But I think for what they've been through 644 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: over the last few years was for Sean and Jared 645 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: to come to this point. Of course, it's an upgrade. 646 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 1: But as far as objectively, who do I want with 647 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: my quarterback? A twenty five year old guy has been 648 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: to a Super Bowl or a thirty three year old 649 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: guy coming off injuries who's never won a playoff game? 650 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: You can make the argument for the former. Yeah, I 651 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: think Detroit did well in this deal, Pete, I really do. 652 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: Stafford wanted to get a soft landing. They wanted to 653 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: trade him. Okay, how many places can we send you to? 654 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 1: Felt like it was going to be the Niners or 655 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: is going to be the Rams? And I thought that 656 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: you you got a guy who can potentially be a 657 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 1: franchise quarterback already under contract, and you got some draft 658 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: picks here, So I thought Detroit did. Okay, they did 659 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: all right, here's the rub on it. Carolina offered a 660 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: really good package, including a top ten pick, and from 661 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,839 Speaker 1: what I'm hearing, they threw Teddy Bridgewater's name in there 662 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 1: at future first round pick. And people around the league 663 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: are like, how do you not take Carolina's offer? Because 664 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 1: then if you take Carolina's offer, you get the seventh 665 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,319 Speaker 1: overall pick, which is the Lions pick, the eighth overall pick, 666 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 1: which is the Panther's pick. You get Teddy Bridgewater to 667 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,359 Speaker 1: be your bridge quarterback. And the Lions folks would tell 668 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,880 Speaker 1: you we like Jared Goff. Believe it or not, Guys, hello, 669 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 1: like Jared Goff was a pizza of this trade. And 670 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,799 Speaker 1: to take on Jared Goff and then also get two 671 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,400 Speaker 1: first round picks, that's a bonanza if you actually believe 672 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 1: in Jared Goff, which they say they do this. I'll 673 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,360 Speaker 1: end with this. The haircut story with the Chiefs felt 674 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: like it was if I'm going to have an onion 675 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:06,800 Speaker 1: headline and you know, close shave Chiefs, you know, get 676 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: caught with barber with COVID. I the fact, imagine if 677 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes is in the chair, because I'm surprised he 678 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 1: wasn't at the front of the line. Hey, Patrick, you 679 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: go in you got other meetings here. If Patrick Mahomes 680 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 1: is in the chair, he's not practicing this week. I 681 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,320 Speaker 1: mean incredible. And it's like Daniel Kilgore is a backup 682 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: center slash guard, so everyone makes a joke and he's like, 683 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 1: all right, Kilbert. If Mahomes gets in that chair, he's 684 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:36,239 Speaker 1: out every day of practice with an offensive line he's 685 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 1: not exactly familiar with. And it's a huge storyline, but 686 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: it is twenty twenty summed up and Adam Schefter sending 687 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:46,280 Speaker 1: four tweets out about a barber and it just tells 688 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: you where we're at these days. And I love Cheft 689 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: and it just shows you and the the guy only 690 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 1: delivers his news and pearls, and that's what we were 691 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: tweeting about this. Maybe that's twenty one Internet shows And 692 00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: your pick is Cheeves. I mean, was that a competent 693 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 1: Chiefs or just oh no? On paper? With the barber story, 694 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: with the offensive line, with the game being played in Tampa, 695 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,680 Speaker 1: with Brady on the other sideline, with that defensive line, 696 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: and it's very easy to want to take the bucks. 697 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: But I can't pick against Mahomes. I can't pick against 698 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: Brady like I'd never been against them. I would until 699 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,839 Speaker 1: I see it. I would have seen it. He lost 700 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: three Super Bowls. Yeah, but you know that I can't 701 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 1: blame him against Philadelphia. No, he threw and they didn't 702 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 1: even punt, like you know, that's that's on Belichick. But 703 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 1: you know the game against the Giants. In both of 704 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 1: those games, you know, the defensive line just pounded him, 705 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: and if the Chiefs are able to do that, then 706 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: the Chiefs are gonna win this game. But on the 707 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: same token though, it's like Mahomes, so many games this 708 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 1: year were close and then on third and six will 709 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 1: hit Tyreek for seven yards and put the game away. 710 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 1: In all of my years covering the sport, this guy 711 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 1: Mahomes finds a way in every single game to get 712 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: the w at the end. I can't pick against them here. Yeah, 713 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 1: but it's weird how they get bored or they need 714 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 1: degree of difficulty. Peter, like they've won twenty five or 715 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 1: twenty six games with him. However it happens, it happens.

We stayed to 725 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 1: be able to do the interview, and we were the 726 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 1: first one to interview him, and we sent out some 727 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 1: of the clips that you'll hear or you might have 728 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 1: already heard yesterday, and that had to do with the 729 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 1: Golf Stafford trade. And so we'll play the entire interview 730 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 1: for you, and I start up by asking Aaron Donald 731 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 1: if he wants to get the golf and Stafford question 732 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 1: out of the way, or if he wants to wait 733 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,839 Speaker 1: till the end of the interview, but we can wait 734 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: to the end. Are you already tired of talking about it? 735 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 1: I haven't talked to this. This the first time I'm 736 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,879 Speaker 1: even gonna speak out about anything, so I an't really 737 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 1: speak about it, just with the family and little conversations 738 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: I had to the side. But that's about it. Okay, 739 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 1: Why don't we knock it out first, and then you 740 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: can say to people, Hey, I've already talked about it 741 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,320 Speaker 1: to Dan Patrick. I don't need to talk to anybody 742 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 1: else about it. Okay, your reaction when you heard that 743 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 1: Jared was going to Detroit and Matthew Stafford was coming 744 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 1: to LA I'm pretty sure everybody was shocked with it. 745 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 1: But um, you know staff was a great quarterback. I'm 746 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 1: excited about having them with the team. A veteran guy 747 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 1: that know the game. I've been playing a game at 748 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: the high level for a long time. You know. It 749 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 1: was a business decision that the Rand organization chose to mate. Um. 750 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 1: You know, I would always love golf. You know, that's 751 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:04,799 Speaker 1: that's my brother forever. But you know, um, I guess 752 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:06,879 Speaker 1: things didn't work out how they wanted to, so um 753 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 1: they made a change. So have you sacked Stafford? Yeah? 754 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:18,240 Speaker 1: Six times? That somehow you had that stat ready there, Aaron, 755 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 1: I already told Hi about I said, I played two 756 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 1: times and I sacked him each time I played. I 757 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,319 Speaker 1: stapped him three times each game. So you know, but 758 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,840 Speaker 1: here's the problem, Aaron. You want him to stay in 759 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 1: Detroit so you can sack him more. Now he's gonna 760 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 1: be your teammate. Yeah, it's fine. He's gonna make he 761 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: gonna help us win some games. So I'm pumped up 762 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 1: about that. Give me the most unfair criticism of Jared Golf. 763 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:42,800 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of things that were said. 764 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 1: You know, but you know, once you starting quarterback, you know, 765 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: if things ain't going I supposed to go, it's always 766 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 1: gonna be. You know, you're gonna be talked about a lot. 767 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,760 Speaker 1: You know. Um, I would never say nothing bad about Golf, 768 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 1: Like I said, that's that's my brother. You know, I 769 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: always gonna keep in contact with him, always gonna talk 770 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,319 Speaker 1: about wish nothing but the best for him in Detroit. Um, 771 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:02,239 Speaker 1: so you know, we ain't gonna worry about you know, 772 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 1: the negativity that's talking about. You know, you got a 773 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,760 Speaker 1: bright future hit of him, a fresh start and hopefully 774 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 1: do you do great things there. So how much do 775 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 1: you play or the style of play deals with the 776 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: chip that might be still on your shoulder. You know, 777 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 1: Tom Brady still talks about being drafted in the sixth round. 778 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 1: Drew Brees, you know that he was too short to 779 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,439 Speaker 1: make the NFL. Like guys carry that, but I don't, 780 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: can you carry it into a game. Do you have 781 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 1: a chip on your shoulder when you play? Um, I've 782 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 1: been I've been asked that question a lot, you know 783 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:37,279 Speaker 1: in my you know career playing football, just because you know, 784 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 1: I had a lot of negative talk about just my 785 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 1: size and things and um, teams not knowing if I 786 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 1: was gonna hold up to be able to play at 787 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 1: the high level at this at this at this in 788 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 1: this league. Um So to me, I never, if anything, 789 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:51,800 Speaker 1: kind of motivated me because I felt like I didn't 790 00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:53,439 Speaker 1: do enough to put it on fim that the show 791 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 1: to show the world that I can play this game 792 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,399 Speaker 1: at a high level don't matter the sad as I am. 793 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:01,360 Speaker 1: Um So, you know I did it get me mad? No, 794 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 1: did it motivate me? You could say yes about that, 795 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 1: you know, it just it just made me work harder 796 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 1: because I felt like, um, you know, maybe I ain't 797 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 1: show them enough yet. Maybe you know I need I 798 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 1: need to do that much more to show to show 799 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 1: the world what I'm about, what I can do. And 800 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: you know that's what I do. You know, That's why 801 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 1: I work the way the way I work, That's why 802 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 1: you know I put the body of work and how 803 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: I do every single offseason. UM prepared myself to you know, 804 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 1: be successful and help my team to win games. So 805 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna continue to do that as long as I 806 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 1: played this game. So do you know the name of 807 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,759 Speaker 1: the offensive lineman that you face every every game? I'm 808 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: not every game. I know the numbers, I'm not. I'm not. 809 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,800 Speaker 1: I don't really care for their name. That's just guys 810 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 1: number I want to gain. But that's it. Are you 811 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:46,879 Speaker 1: friendly with any offensive lineman? Not at all? None. None. 812 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 1: That's doing the guys, that's that's the guys are trying 813 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 1: to stop me from doing my job. So I can't 814 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,239 Speaker 1: be friends with no. Guys are trying to prevent me 815 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 1: from you know, doing what I got to do to 816 00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,759 Speaker 1: provide for my family. So on the field, it's really 817 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: no friendships. It's just you know, they to day the enemy. 818 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 1: Well what about postgame hug when you could do hugs? Oh, 819 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 1: you know, hug probably half hour or so. But I honestly, 820 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: really I know a couple of office alignment personally, but 821 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 1: I really don't have too many relationship office alignments. So 822 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 1: what about quarterbacks? You're okay with quarterbacks? Oh no, But 823 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: you know anybody I gotta go against or you know, 824 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 1: there's trying to, you know, prevent me from doing what 825 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 1: I need to do. You know, so I ain't too 826 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,360 Speaker 1: friendly with them, but going a game, you know it 827 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 1: ain't to me. But you know, after the game, might 828 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 1: you know, shake a hand or say what's up? That's 829 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 1: about it? Anybody talk trash to you? It is some 830 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:43,799 Speaker 1: players talk trash this year, try to say some things 831 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:45,880 Speaker 1: here and there, but you know it's a part of 832 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:48,279 Speaker 1: the game. Give me an idea. You don't have to 833 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 1: give me a name. Give me an idea. What what 834 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 1: do they say to Aaron Donald? What what could you 835 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 1: say to Aaron Donald? It's a lot of it's a 836 00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:56,879 Speaker 1: lot of trash talking to football, a lot of things 837 00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 1: that can't be spoke out loud, you know. But you know, um, 838 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 1: I can't say exactly what it was, but this this 839 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 1: thing said, and things will be said back and then 840 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: you know, actions will be handled from there on a 841 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 1: football field, so direct way, when's the last time you 842 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 1: were in a fight off the field. I ain't been 843 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: in a fight since I was a kid. Man. I'm 844 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 1: too old to getting fights. Now you fight, now you 845 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: go to jail. So, um, what was your what was 846 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 1: your career record as a kid in fight? I'm understanding. 847 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 1: And if they were too old and too big for me, 848 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 1: I got my big brother to handle it. I never 849 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 1: lost no fight. Well I lost to fight too my 850 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,879 Speaker 1: big brother, but that don't count. So why did the 851 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 1: Packers loss affect you so much? Um? Honestly, Um, it 852 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 1: was just I felt down just because I wasn't able 853 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 1: to play how I needed to play. You know, I 854 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:53,279 Speaker 1: had I had an injury that kind of you know, 855 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 1: preventing me from being who I am. I wasn't able 856 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 1: to do much, you know, playing through pain and things 857 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,320 Speaker 1: like that. No excuses, but um, you know, it was 858 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 1: just tough. I felt like I let my team down. 859 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 1: Um when they needed me the most, I couldn't be 860 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: there for him, you know. So it was just that's 861 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 1: that's that's what hurt me the most, you know, because 862 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,839 Speaker 1: I felt like, you know, um, you work your butt 863 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 1: off to play at this position and do a lot 864 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:19,320 Speaker 1: to you know, they have opportunity to you know, playing 865 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,560 Speaker 1: big games like that, and I get to that pointing 866 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 1: and I got to try to fight through an injury 867 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 1: and and and not be able to help my guys. 868 00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: I need how they needed me that day. You know, 869 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,000 Speaker 1: I was just down about that. So, well, it's tough 870 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:35,399 Speaker 1: enough to be chasing Aaron Rodgers when you're healthy. Yeah, 871 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 1: it's it's fine man. That's why he had he had 872 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:41,080 Speaker 1: a great ear, A lot of respect for him. But 873 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:43,640 Speaker 1: you know, it is what it is. What's your I'm 874 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:47,400 Speaker 1: bumming you out here. I gotta, I gotta. I had 875 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 1: to cheer you up right now.

Um, a lot of 891 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 1: things that I learned about, you know, recovering, things like 892 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 1: that is what you consume, what you put into your body, 893 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:44,279 Speaker 1: and UM, a lot of that going to what you're 894 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,200 Speaker 1: drinking when you're working out, when you're training, when you're 895 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 1: practicing and and ready is that thing for me? You know, 896 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 1: so not just being able to you know, be a 897 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:53,919 Speaker 1: part of but be part owner of it. Um, it's huge. 898 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 1: So I've been I've been loving the opportunity and um, 899 00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 1: you dropped this great sports drink and we pumped up 900 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:03,839 Speaker 1: about it. Greek freaks involved in this too, right, Yes, yes, sir, 901 00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 1: yes sir. How do you think he'd do in the NFL? 902 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 1: I think he did do. He's a big guy, athletic guy. 903 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 1: I think he has some success. I don't know it 904 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,560 Speaker 1: like I could see Lebron is a tight end. Okay, 905 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:22,799 Speaker 1: do you think Lebron could do? Okay, he got the 906 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:24,879 Speaker 1: size and the athletic ability. You know if I think 907 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,240 Speaker 1: if if he practice it just like he practiced football, 908 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 1: I mean basketball, Yeah, I think he can translate that 909 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 1: to the NFL. Now, how would you do in basketball, 910 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 1: if I practice it good enough, I think I'll be good. 911 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 1: If if I took it a serious as I took football, Um, 912 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,960 Speaker 1: you know, I think you could. I don't know. There 913 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 1: aren't too many six foot three hundred pound point guards here, 914 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 1: Like obviously my body had to change the things. That's obvious. 915 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:52,000 Speaker 1: But um, you know, if anything you work hard enough 916 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 1: for you, you can you know, accomplish some crazy things 917 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,359 Speaker 1: if you put the body working. So well, wait a minute, 918 00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:02,480 Speaker 1: who plays basketball the way you did in high school? Um, 919 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 1: I don't know. And d don't say Alan Iverson or 920 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 1: somebody like that. Well, I'm a big body guy. I'm 921 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:11,080 Speaker 1: more a dominant so I would say like a guy 922 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 1: like Shaq you know, and do a lot of things 923 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 1: like that. So but but you know, guys in the 924 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,880 Speaker 1: NFL say Shack would get destroyed in the NFL because 925 00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 1: it's all about getting low, it's about getting leverage. He's 926 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 1: too tall. Do you think Shack again? If you think 927 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:32,640 Speaker 1: about you know, if if he the way he took basketball, 928 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 1: if he was took football the same way, you know 929 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:38,080 Speaker 1: that dad was switching to translate different. So I don't know, 930 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 1: he's too big, No leverage there earned that. That's why 931 00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 1: you're so great. You got leverage, man, every play you 932 00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:48,359 Speaker 1: got leverage. Hey uh, good luck, I got to get 933 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 1: back to benching. And good luck with Ready, and congratulations 934 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:55,839 Speaker 1: on the success so far. I appreciate you.
