1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. It's our two on this Friday, Dan and 3 00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,959 Speaker 1: the Dant's Dan Patrick Show. Coming up, we'll talk to 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 1: the great defensive back with the Patriots, Rodney Harrison, probably 5 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: should be a Hall of Famer. We'll talk to Rodney. 6 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: He has no problems with Bill Belichick given the keys 7 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: to the offensive. Car new England to Mac Jones. Question 8 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: is so you think the Patriots are a playoff team? 9 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: And does Cam Newton get another job? Age seven seven three, 10 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: d P Show Email ADRESSDPA, Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter 11 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 1: handle at dp show. We decided on a poll question. 12 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: Apparently mclovin decided on a poll question. Are we going 13 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 1: to stay with the poll question that you decided upon? No, 14 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,840 Speaker 1: because it's a blowout favorite season. Fall is winning seventy percent, 15 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: runner up his summer. So as you predicted, Fall won that. Okay. 16 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: I have a NFL MVP pole, but without the obvious candidates. Okay, 17 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: so this is is this in a against the grain 18 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: MVP pole? Yes, against the grain MVP pole? All right, 19 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: fire the music here for McLevin and H three two. Okay, 20 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 1: how far below? What defines a dark horse? MVP candidate, 21 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: like is, My first one is Jamis Winston. He's forty 22 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: to one. That's definitely dark That's that's a dark horse. Okay, 23 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put him on there, all right. I'm gonna 24 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,479 Speaker 1: put running back Dalvin Cook is the second highest running 25 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: back from Minnesota. People think he might if he's healthy. 26 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: It's when healthy games are crazy good that he might be. Okay, 27 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 1: first of all, you gotta win. Second of all, you're 28 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: gonna have to rush for two thousand yards, and as 29 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry has proven, even if you rush for two 30 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: thousand yards, that doesn't mean you're going to win the MVP, 31 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: even if you're on a good two. Yeah, that's rough. 32 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: That's why it's a dark horse MVP. But his aunts 33 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: are fairly high. They're a lot higher than this guy. 34 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: Big Ben is about forty to one. There's a little 35 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: bit of buzz about the Steelers having a decent preseason. 36 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: I'm all about Big Ben as a dark horse candidate. Okay, 37 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: there's a comeback story here with Ben and maybe his 38 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,239 Speaker 1: swan song, so I get the sentiment might be there, 39 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: but I just have I have my doubts about that 40 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: offensive line with with Pittsburgh. That's the problem. Okay, how 41 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 1: about a defensive player finally, way down in the odds. 42 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: A first defensive player is Aaron Donald with the Rams. 43 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: Do you think there's ever a time they would want 44 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: to give him like a Career Achievement award and he 45 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: could sneak up there. He's been in consideration before, but 46 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: never gotten a vote as far as I know. Well, 47 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: you have to help out the voters, and by that 48 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: I mean you've got to make it easier for them 49 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: to understand your dominance. There are times when you watch 50 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald and he could be doing what he's paid 51 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: to do and does better than anybody, but it doesn't 52 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: show up on the statuet. How many sacks he's got 53 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: to get twenty sacks and he's for an interior alignment. 54 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: That's crazy though, to even get close. Yes, but I 55 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: would think you could make a case that he is 56 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: the best defensive player every year, his value to his team. 57 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: They were the best defense in the NFL last year, 58 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 1: and I think or one of the top ten. Number one. Yeah, 59 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: But I just don't think the voters will look at 60 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: this and go, Okay, team on a playoff or quarterback 61 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: on a team that's in the playoffs, what's their record? 62 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: What are the numbers that you're putting up now, Aaron 63 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: Rodgers put up numbers that you just couldn't deny. Those 64 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: are historically great numbers, and your team was really good. 65 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes winning, Tom Brady winning. You got to put 66 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: up good numbers to great numbers and be on a 67 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: playoff quality team. And I don't know if Dalvin Cook 68 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: is going to be on a team that makes the playoffs. 69 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: Two more real quick, Okay, how about Travis Kelsey last 70 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: year had one of the great seasons ever for a 71 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: tight end. If you didn't want to give it to 72 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: Mahomes and that offense kept being great, do you think 73 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: that he could ever make a run A long shot? No, 74 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: I mean that's a dark horse, But no, I don't 75 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:08,119 Speaker 1: think so, because his success will mean you know, how 76 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: did he become successful? It's because Patrick Mahomes. He will 77 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: help Patrick Mahomes probably more than the other way around. 78 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: And the same argument with Stefan Diggs, who is tied 79 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: to Josh Allens is MVP. I don't see a wide 80 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 1: receiver winning the MVP if a defensive player. Lawrence Taylor 81 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: was the most Valuable Player in the NFL. I know 82 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: that he was Defensive Player of the Year, but he 83 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: also won the MVP Allen Page one MVP as a 84 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: defensive player for the Vikings. Okay, real quick, dark horses? 85 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: Do we put a Matt Ryan on there, a Kirk Cousins, 86 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, and then I'm gonna kind I'm not gonna 87 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 1: put Baker Mayfield in the dark horse that's anybody Baker 88 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 1: Mayfield above does not make the list. Okay, what are 89 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: the odds for Baker Mayfield to be MVP. Baker Mayfield, 90 00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: according to this list right here, is thirty one, and Russ, 91 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: for example, is twenty to one. I like that one. 92 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: By the way, Russ had twenty to one. Yeah, everyone's 93 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 1: down on Seattle. But why well, I thought Russ was 94 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 1: going to be the MVP last year and for the 95 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: first half of the season, and then all of a 96 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: sudden things changed, and I I don't know, I just 97 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: I'm never quite sure what kind of offense. Pete Carroll 98 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: wants to run because Russ wants to cook, and then 99 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: they let Russ cook, and then all of a sudden 100 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: second half of the season, he wasn't cooking. He wasn't 101 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: even in the kitchen. I would think Baker Mayfield would 102 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 1: be a dark horse MVP at thirty to one, Yeah, 103 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: it's a little lower than I thought. You know who's 104 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: actually right there with Baker Mayfield, Ryan Tannehill. Now, there's 105 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: no way that dude's winning the MVP just based on 106 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: like narrative. No, although he had a really good year 107 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: last year and that was one of the highest scoring offenses. 108 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 1: You just when you think of that Titans, you think 109 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: of Derrick Henry, You're not going to think of Ryan Tannehill. Yeah, 110 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: pol is it tough for Mahomes to win it? Believe 111 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 1: or not? Because if he has forty one touchdowns, that's 112 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 1: no big deal. Yea. And I know he had the 113 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: fifty year and opposite it doesn't. It also feels like 114 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: it's Josh Allen's year where he's been raised up. The 115 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: team's good, the division's very winnable. I think that's the 116 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: way I'd put the money. Can Lamar Jackson win it again? 117 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: He can't because he lost in the playoffs. It's like 118 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 1: the NBA, like Janice was not going to win it 119 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: again because they're right, Oh, we voted people are like, 120 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: we voted him for MVP, then he lost. What about 121 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert feels like that trajectory still moving up? Good story, 122 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: but I don't know how good that team's going to be. 123 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: He's in the twenty one Jeff, Yeah, pol if matt 124 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: Stafford could get twelve wins, thirteen wins and the numbers, 125 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: he's got the story of the new place, a lot 126 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 1: of attention. That's that's how you went to piece big market. 127 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: What are the odds for Matthew Stafford. I'm seeing Matthew 128 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: Stafford at about sixteen to one on this line. Okay, 129 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: so he's considered one of the favorites. Then either third, 130 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: by the way, the top two or Mahomes and Rogers 131 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: who Josh Allen third? I agree, like Rogers could have 132 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: a great year. They're not going to give it to 133 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: him again because they don't seem to like to repeat 134 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: bas just you know, they wanted the new flavor. You 135 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: love a story, Josh Allen, that's still a new story. 136 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert's a new story. I agree with Paulie. If 137 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: Mahomes throws for you know, forty four touchdowns, then you're 138 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: gonna go yeah, Okay, nothing to see here. UM trying 139 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: to think if there's anybody else, some other long shots 140 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: on here. Christian McCaffrey's fairly high for a running back, 141 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: coming back. Carson Wentz is really good. He's about forty 142 00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: to one on the now. Now, now that's a good story. 143 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: You always have to factor in the story. But he's 144 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: got foot surgery a month ago. It makes it an 145 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: even better story that Philly didn't want him surgery COVID 146 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: and you're going to a new team then all, And 147 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: I mean that would be somebody. What are the numbers 148 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: on him? I'm seeing him here close to fifty, So 149 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put up the poll with Jamis Ed Roethlisberger, 150 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz, Aaron Donald as a long shot like thirty 151 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: and below. Okay, I'm curious if anybody I'd actually know 152 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: With the Baker odds being over thirty, that's crazy to me. 153 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 1: I thought Baker would be higher. I don't know what 154 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: kind of numbers he's going to put up because that's 155 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,599 Speaker 1: a running team. It should be a running team. I 156 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: don't know if it will be. I just don't know 157 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: if he'll put up big enough numbers. But if they're winning, 158 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 1: if they're going fourteen and three and he's clean, then 159 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: maybe he could be he could be MVP. Maybe. Yeah, Paul, 160 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: you are a nailing the math with the seventeen game season. 161 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: He the embarrassment. Thank you. I don't even I put 162 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: twenty twenty on my check. Still you went fourteen and 163 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,079 Speaker 1: at three. In my head, what's that Dan doing? It's 164 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: a sixteen moron? Yeah. I mean you've been crushing all August. 165 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: Thank you, very proud of you, thank you, thank you. 166 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: I still have the Chargers in San Diego and the 167 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: Raiders in Oakland. Button when it comes to a seventeen game, 168 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 1: because I've been on the seventeen game schedule for how long? 169 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: How many years? Was I saying they're gonna go to 170 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 1: a seventeen game schedule. We'd already moved there years ago. 171 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: In your head you said the team is gonna eight 172 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: ninety other day, and once it came in and corrected you. 173 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: Was that the Denver Denver opening night? YEP? And I 174 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: flew back and I flew back with somebody who with 175 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: a source, and that source was telling me that, you know, 176 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: the NFL is going to be going to an extra 177 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: playoff team and they're gonna go to an extra game. 178 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: And I came in and I was like, I I 179 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: got this, I got this nailed down. And all of 180 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: a sudden, it's like the NFL says they deny the 181 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: Dan Patrick report that they're going to an extra game. 182 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm like, wait a minute, somebody who's involved in this, 183 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: how does this happen? What if you're employed? And then 184 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: I can't say anything. I'm like, how did that happen? 185 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: Unless he was like, yeah, you know what I did. 186 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: I told Dan Patrick that we're going to go to 187 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 1: an extra game. Yes, I firmly believe Roger Goodell changed 188 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: his mind because you reported it was personal. Yes, Paul, 189 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 1: I have a quick MVP quiz. Can anyone name the 190 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 1: last non quarterbacks? I should say, how about the last 191 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: running back to win the MVP? It was in the 192 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: past ten seasons? Adrian Peterson? Adrian Peterson? How about before 193 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson two thousand and six and two thousand and five. 194 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: Marshall Folk, No, I thought that's he was two thousand 195 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: good guests, okay um in two thousand and five and 196 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: two thousand and six running backs one one was a 197 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: guy who's Hall of Fame friend of the show. The 198 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: other had one monster season and a good career, Trill 199 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: Davis Ladinian Thomason. This guy had one monstrous year and 200 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: a good career, but he had some injuries. Uh. And 201 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 1: this was two thousand and six, two thousand and five, 202 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: the year before Thomas Chris Jonson. No. Another good guest 203 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 1: Sean Alexander year Seahawks. Didn't he have twenty eight touchdowns? Yeah, 204 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: and like seventeen hundred yards? Yeah? He had Wow, three 205 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy carries, nineteen hundred yards, twenty seven touchdowns. 206 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 1: He never broke a thousand yards after that. It's been 207 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 1: a while since the team has repeated his Super Bowl champs, 208 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: the three oh four Patriots, with Tom Brady at quarterback. 209 00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: And normally championship teams will lose players there, you know, 210 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: with free agency, or they might lose assistant coaches who 211 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: get hired elsewhere. But that hasn't happened with Brady's new team, 212 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers. They kept everybody. They kept the coaching staff, 213 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich, the defensive coordinator, Todd Bowles. 214 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: They're still there. You got a rookie linebacker, Joe Tryon. 215 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,719 Speaker 1: He's out of Washington. Isn't he look love? And I 216 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: remember watching him twice in games and I thought was 217 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: his number nine? He was all over the place. Yeah, 218 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: I remember on Draft Day I tweeted, if he has 219 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: a lack of effort, you can't say he's not trying. Okay, alrighty, 220 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: I'm sorry I missed that. Yesterday we learned that everybody's 221 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: vaccinated with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so that could be 222 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: a competitive advantage. It's weird. It's like, what the what 223 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: are the Buccaneers do really well, they get vaccinated. Oh, okay, 224 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: that doesn't really show up on strengths and weaknesses. Yes, Paul, 225 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: all these coaches are announcing my team's one hundred percent vaccinated. 226 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: Some tough guy and the coach is gonna come out 227 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: there say my team's one hundred and five percent vaccinated. Well, 228 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: you know, Dan Campbell with the Lions were one hundred 229 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: and forty two vaccinated. You gotta have health tough to predict. 230 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 1: That's why when you say, oh, that team, of course 231 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: they're going to be going to the playoffs. So the 232 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: super Bowl parts of the roster are older. Maybe somebody 233 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: else in the NFC is going to surprise us, but 234 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay fans have every reason to be optimistic about 235 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: playing for another championship. We'll talk to Rodney Harrison. He 236 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: was on that team, the last team to repeat as 237 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: Super Bowl champs.

But he followed us yesterday on Twitter and 249 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: he responded to our audience, going back and forth with 250 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: questions that they had for Phil.

I'm a 331 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: little down right now, Dan, I got just got some 332 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 1: disturbing news. A former teammate up the mind David Patton. 333 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: I guess he was involved in a motorcycle accident that 334 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 1: took his life. I heard it did. His wife is 335 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,479 Speaker 1: in critical condition. I just got the news this morning, 336 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: maybe about twenty minutes ago, and I'm just I'm devastated. 337 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: He was such a great man, a great man of God. 338 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: I'm a great leader in our locker room man, and 339 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just heartbroken. Would you rather do the 340 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: interview another day now? I'm gonna finish it off the day. 341 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm okay, buddy, I appreciate you. Can I bring you 342 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: back to the three oh four Patriots when you guys 343 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,959 Speaker 1: repeated because there's been that, you know, that talk with 344 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,479 Speaker 1: Tom and trying to do this again with Tampa Bay. 345 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: What was the key thing about that going into the 346 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: O four season that Belichick reminded you or that that 347 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,199 Speaker 1: was the most important thing about, Hey, this is what 348 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: we do and we can win it again. Well, you know, 349 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:48,160 Speaker 1: after the season, we never really discussed the super Bowl. 350 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: The biggest thing that head said, Hey, this is a 351 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: totally different team. It's a new season. No one talks 352 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 1: about repeating. We focus on one game at a time 353 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: and really he set the tone for that mindset. And 354 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,959 Speaker 1: and you know, as much as we wanted to go 355 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: forward and think about it home man, we had a 356 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 1: chance to repeat. He always reminded us. But also we 357 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: had so many great veterans in that locker room that 358 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 1: constantly the Teddy Bruski's at the World, Willie McGinnis, myself, 359 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: Richard Seymour, all those guys constantly reminded not only the 360 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,199 Speaker 1: veteran players but also the rookies that, hey, you know, 361 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 1: we haven't won anything. I mean, this year is its 362 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: own individual year and you have to focus on that. 363 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: What do you think Brady is telling his teammates one 364 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 1: game at a time, don't worry about last year, all 365 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 1: those different things, but he's definitely letting them know, like, look, guys, 366 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: we can win this because the mindset is different. Like 367 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: with the Patriots, you could really never be outwardly expressive 368 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: as far as hey we want to repeat. But with 369 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, I mean it's a new regime. It's a 370 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 1: lot of younger players with you know, a great variety 371 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 1: of some veteran players, so I think they openly will 372 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: claim that, hey, they feel like they can repeat. Definitely, 373 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 1: I think Tom, that's definitely in Tom Brady's mind. When 374 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:03,400 Speaker 1: you don't have athleticism, don't lose athleticism. So is Brady 375 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 1: basically the same quarterback as you had when you were 376 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: there with him in New England. Yeah, and I think 377 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: he has a whole head of a lot of weapons 378 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: around him. I mean, you look at the weapons he's got, 379 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 1: Mike Evans. If he continues to go on the path 380 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 1: that he's going, he's going to be a Hall of famer. 381 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown arguably as a Hall of famer, Bronk is 382 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer. And they had that run game 383 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: with the offensive line, the veteran coaching staff that made 384 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 1: some great adjustments the second part of the second half 385 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 1: of the season. And Tom his eagerness, his you know, 386 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: his desire to be the greatest. And Tom's always looking 387 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 1: for that motivation. And I got some funny stories, but 388 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 1: I can't tell him today about Tom and just that motivation. 389 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: But yeah, man, he's he's really motivated and he's ready 390 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: to go. Wait wait, wait, you can't say you have 391 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: funny stories, but then you can't tell them pretty too long. 392 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: It takes too long, Dan, I mean, like on a 393 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: different podcast or something like that. This is a Dan 394 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 1: Patrick show. You don't have thirty minutes to be wasting 395 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 1: your time with me, all right. I know you used 396 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: to frustrate him in practice, and you know, because he 397 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,199 Speaker 1: was going against a pretty good secondary and and you know, 398 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 1: Brady was ultra competitive even in practice. Yeah he was. 399 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: And you know the bad part about today's NFL, everyone's 400 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 1: so caught up in an athletic quarterback. Well, Tom Brady 401 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: won the most Super Bowls without being athletic. If you're smart, 402 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: you're a great decision maker. Your teammates believe in you. 403 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: And that's the biggest thing with Tom. Tom never wanted 404 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: to disappoint his teammates. He never always wanted to make 405 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 1: sure that he wasn't the reason why we lost. That 406 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: he wanted to be the reason why we won. And 407 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: you know, just that mindset over twenty some years, Man, 408 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: it's just amazing to see how everything has transpire for him. 409 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: Did Mac Jones win the job or Cam Newton lose 410 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: the job? I think Mac Jones won the job. That's 411 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 1: why I had nothing negative to say about Cam. I 412 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 1: think you know, you look at Mac and everything that 413 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 1: he did. He came in the first game, they put 414 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: him in a no huddle offense and let him just 415 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: thinking dunk, let him the ball down the field, decide 416 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: who and you watch him play. I mean, the kid 417 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: is accurate, he's smart, he's so poised, and you know, 418 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: he's not afraid to get in somebody's face. I just 419 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: love the kid, and I think that it was a 420 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: I never thought that Kim would get cut, but the 421 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: fact that he got cut just shows me that Cam 422 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: has a big, big personality and you can't have somebody 423 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: with that type of personality behind Mac Jones because you 424 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: just don't know how it's going to affect the young 425 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 1: quarterback and it could potentially divide the locker room as well. 426 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: Does Cam play again, Well, he has to decide if 427 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: he's okay with being a backup quarterback because he's not 428 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 1: going to be a starter in this league. If he 429 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: wants to be a bridge quarterback, or if he wants 430 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: to be, say a backup quarterback to someone you know 431 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: for a period of time, then yes, But I don't 432 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 1: see Cam Newton sign with anyone and being there starter 433 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: this year, next year, or even in the future. Hunch 434 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: of last time you cracked up Bill Belichick cracked up, 435 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 1: made him laugh out. Well, I just think the last 436 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: time that week we you know, when I got inducted 437 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 1: to the Hall of Fame the Patriots, I think it 438 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 1: was two twenty nineteen. We just had some you know, 439 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: some old conversations that we hugged and we smiled and 440 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: we laughed, and it was just good to see coach. 441 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 1: But I think Coach has done a really great job 442 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: of getting talent surrounding this young man with talent. You 443 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: look at their offensive line, it's gonna be good, and 444 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 1: they go four or five deep at the running back position. Um, 445 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: they always have special good special teams and a better defense. 446 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 1: I think their defense is gonna be top five, top ten, 447 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: and this kid is set up to succeed right now. 448 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: And I believe that they could push Buffalo for that division. 449 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,159 Speaker 1: I think they're a playoff team for sure. And I 450 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: agree that offensive line is going to be one of 451 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: the top five offensive lines probably, and then you have 452 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: all those running backs and you got the tight ends 453 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: as well. It does feel like sort of what they 454 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: did with Brady when they put Brady in there, you 455 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: guys had a really good defense and you know, at 456 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 1: the time Bill's going just don't don't lose a game 457 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 1: for us. It felt like, but go back to that 458 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: Super Bowl when Tom wins is first and instead of 459 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: playing for overtime and John Madden famously during the game 460 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 1: is like, you know, with Tom Brady there, they should 461 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 1: be playing for overtime. Brady comes out in that two 462 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: minute drill, you know, leading you down for Vinitary's kick, Like, 463 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,439 Speaker 1: what was that like though on the sidelines when all 464 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: of a sudden you realize Belichick's letting Brady try to 465 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: win this game. Well, I think we froze up. Can 466 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: you hear me? Rod H? Once again, I thought I 467 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: had a great question, and then he was really giving 468 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: a great thought. There good set up to Yeah, I know, 469 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: I know, I know, yes, McLeman. Patriots maybe playing with 470 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: the equipment, as they've been known to do the video equipment. 471 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: Maybe didn't want him answering that, Oh, just conspiracy there 472 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: scenes given a scenes, give me a look. Yeah, anytime 473 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:05,679 Speaker 1: there's a negative Patriots story, Seaton's always have you ever 474 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 1: agreed with any of the negative story Seaton about the Patriots? 475 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: Where you go, yeah, I could see that or I 476 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 1: agree with that negative stories? Yeah, like what do you 477 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 1: mean give me an example, uh, deflate gates ideal gas law. 478 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: They hadn't explained right away. Why hasn't the league ever 479 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,640 Speaker 1: released the whole Next year, the league spent a year 480 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: of whole season testing all of the footballs in their 481 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: air pressure. Rodney's back, Rodney's backs, I think, Rod, can 482 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: you hear me? I can hear you? D Okay? Take 483 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 1: me back to that first Super Bowl Brady one and 484 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: when you guys are on the sidelines and he's trying 485 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: to win, Belichick's letting him try to win that game 486 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: instead of going into overtime. Yeah, Dan, think about it, 487 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: don Tom's not built to try to tie the game. Tom. 488 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: He's built his mindset is no matter what situation that 489 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: we're in, no matter what the circumstances, Tom Brady is 490 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: trying to win. And that's the confidence that we had 491 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: in him, you know. And that's why it didn't matter 492 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: if you see time with fifty seconds, forty seconds, a 493 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: minute or two minutes. These are things that we've always 494 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: worked on and that that's when Tom Brady really shines 495 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 1: in those critical moments, and that's the thing that really 496 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 1: separates him from everyone else. He's Rodney Harrison, NBC Football 497 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: Night in America analyst, two times Super Bowl champ. Do 498 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: you care about the Pro Football Hall of Fame? Um? 499 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: I do, UM to a certain point. I believe that 500 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: I definitely deserve to be there, but also believe that 501 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 1: you know, in time and when it's when it's my time, 502 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: I will go. You know, I used to get caught 503 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: up in oh that guy, how did he go? And 504 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: stuff like that, But at the end of the day, 505 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: it's not even about that. Um, It's about you know, 506 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 1: when when it's ultimately my time ago, I know God's 507 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: gonna lead the way and I'll be happy with it. 508 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:55,880 Speaker 1: Who's the best defensive back in your opinion in the league? Now, 509 00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 1: no that you ever played against. I would say you 510 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: have to put a guy like a Charles Woodson in 511 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: that category. I think, you know, Charles, over the course 512 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: of his career, he's shown so much versatility. A guy 513 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: that could play outside. He's played inside as a nickel, 514 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 1: as a you know, he played as a linebacker, he's 515 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,680 Speaker 1: played as a deep safety. So a guy like that 516 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: to be able to be that productive over that many 517 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: years and played a multitude of positions, I would think 518 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: that you know, I would say when he retired, I 519 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: called Charles or texting him through Peter King, was like, hey, 520 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: I think you're the greatest defensive back of all time 521 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: because he can do everything at every single position, Like 522 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: Charles could have been a pro bowler at every single position. 523 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: In the secondary, most frustrating wide receiver that you faced, 524 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: oh it had to be Jerry It would be Jerry 525 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: Rice and Marvin Harrison because no matter how much you 526 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: hit Marvin Harrison, how much you jammed him, that little 527 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 1: dude was always going to find a little way to 528 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: get right there in the openings and catch the ball. 529 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: Jerry Rice because his relentlessness, his route running, his consistency, 530 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: no matter how hard you hit him, he's gonna come 531 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: right back across the middle. And look at you said, 532 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: that's all you got, get up and run back to 533 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: the huddle. So those two guys are definitely the most frustrated. 534 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: And you got fined for your hit on Jerry Rice, 535 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 1: didn't you? Didn't you? Yeah, I gotta find like a 536 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: full game check. And I was back in like ninety eight, 537 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: I think it was or two thousand and one, and 538 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: they got me for about one hundred and fifty grand man. Wow, yeah, yeah, 539 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: but it was worth it. It was worth it. Now 540 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: do you write the check or do they take it 541 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: out of your just put it like this when you 542 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: go and they they're gonna find you a game check. Basically, 543 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: you just don't collect your check. You just don't happen. 544 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: You just don't get that check. So it was just 545 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: a Monday or Tuesday that I just met in and said, Hey, 546 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: I just don't get paid this week. But it was 547 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: nice knocking his head off. What do you say to 548 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: your wife when you say, hunting not getting paid this week? Hey, 549 00:29:53,040 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: we still got money? Still robing roof over your head? Ruby? Fine? 550 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: Who do you like one of the rams of the Chargers? 551 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: The Rams, I think Matthew Stafford. I think he's gonna 552 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: do a great job. Can he get him to the 553 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,239 Speaker 1: Super Bowl? We'll see. I mean he hasn't been in 554 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: that situation before. But overall them as a group, I 555 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: like the continuity. I think Sean McVay is still a 556 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 1: really solid head coach, and I think that defense will 557 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: be good with Aaron Donald. So I would definitely give them. 558 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 1: And you look at the Chargers man, the Chargers over 559 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: the years, they've had special teams issues, they've had penalties, 560 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: they've always been just so injuries, undisciplined and can't kick 561 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: field goes just all those different things. But I think 562 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: slowly but surely, Brandon Staley will get this team back 563 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: to where they need to be. And Derwin James coming back, 564 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 1: he's going to be outstanding. Look for him to be 565 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the Year. Aaron Rodgers more likely to 566 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 1: stay or less likely to stay if the Packers are successful, 567 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: I would say, I would say if they if they 568 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl, I can say, you know, they'll 569 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: probably extend him and give him a big contract. But 570 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: if they don't win a Super Bowl, and it's just 571 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: really disrespectful from a Packers organization standpoint, Like, no matter 572 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: how much Aaron Rodgers frustrate you, he's great. He's great, 573 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: and he doesn't deserve to be treated the way they 574 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 1: treated him. How can Aaron Rodgers ever go into a 575 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 1: season worrying about his contract? I mean, how does that happen? 576 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: Like he is that great of a player where he 577 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: should never have to worry about his contract, like Tom 578 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: should have never had to worry about his contract. Those dudes, 579 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: you take care of because they love football, they're passionate 580 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 1: about it. They put team first and they should be rewarded. 581 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: And I just don't understand, Like, who's ever running a 582 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers? Why would you even put your team 583 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: in a situation like this. Let along Aaron Rodgers having 584 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: to come out publicly and it's all a distraction and 585 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: your goal is to win a Super Bowl. I think 586 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,959 Speaker 1: it's going to affect him going into the season. Well, 587 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: if they gave him a heads up and said we're 588 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 1: drafting Jordan Love, that doesn't mean he was going to 589 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: be happy that they were drafting Jordan Love. I think 590 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: they were. They were betting on Aaron Rodgers. You know, 591 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: his numbers were going to continue to drop. He had 592 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: had two subpar seasons for him, and they thought, Okay, 593 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: the end is nearer, we're gonna draft Jordan Love. I 594 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 1: understand what their logic was, but can you give him 595 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: a heads up that you're going to be drafting a 596 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: quarterback or well even if even if you do or 597 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: if you don't, you still have to go to him 598 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: out of respect And to me, if I'm an organization, 599 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: if I'm runn an organization as a general manager, I'm 600 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: pulling Aaron to the side and I'm letting them know, hey, 601 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: our plan is this. Our plan is to draft this 602 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: young man, let him learn two or three years behind you, 603 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: and let you do your thing. And by that, what 604 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to do is I'm gonna come and we're 605 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: gonna do a new contract to let you know that 606 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: that's our intention. But they didn't do that with Aaron Rodgers. 607 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: They didn't show him the respect or the loyalty that 608 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: he deserved, and he had a right to be pissed off. 609 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: I've been working on my Belichick impersonation. Let me see 610 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: it all, Ronnie. I think you're a Home of Famer. 611 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: It's great to talk to you, and I wish you 612 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: the best. NBC. I'm glad that that guy Dan Patrick's 613 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: not on there anymore. So just I want to wish 614 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 1: you a good season, okay, Dan. That is spot on, 615 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: especially the part about he said he wished that I 616 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: tell that the audience and that Dan as that time 617 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: we were at the Jets game Patriots Jets might have 618 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: been the butt fumble and Belichick comes out of the 619 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 1: tunnel and you and Tony Dungi are there and he's 620 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: like shaking your hands. And then I was next in line, 621 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: and then he just walked right by me. Hey, I 622 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: had the same experience. I think it was in Dominican Sue. 623 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: He walked up to coach and you know, I had 624 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: said some things about him in the pad and I'm 625 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 1: on the sideline and he walks up to me and 626 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: he shakes coach hand and I'm looking at the biggest 627 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: guy that I've seen in my life, one of the 628 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: toughest means dudes. I'm like, I hope this dude just 629 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 1: doesn't fact slappter me. And he gave me the dirtiest 630 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 1: look and walked away. I was like, I'm okay, hey, 631 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: great to talk to you. Is always good luck this season. 632 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: Thank you again for joining us, buddy anytime. Dan. Good 633 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 1: to see you, bro. Thank you man. That's Rodney Harrison 634 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,720 Speaker 1: NBC Football Night in America. One back to back Super 635 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: Bowls there, and uh, I think he's one of two 636 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,360 Speaker 1: players in NFL history with at least thirty sacks and 637 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 1: thirty interceptions. I think ray Lewis might be the other one. 638 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: Does that sound right, McLevin, Yeah, that sounds good to me. 639 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,319 Speaker 1: Thank you mcluv. I was just wanting to complain. There's 640 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: one hit he should have been fine for it all 641 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:35,760 Speaker 1: the one against you. Yeah, that deserved at least fifteen thousand. 642 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 1: I don't know who set that up, Paulie. Of course mclovin. 643 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 1: We were, we were. Well give them.

All righty, 662 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 1: welcome back to the Dan Patrick Show. We had Rodney 663 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 1: Harrison in our New York studio. This is a couple 664 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: of years ago, and unbeknownst to me, Paulie had said 665 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 1: to Rodney Harrison, Hey, mclovin's gonna act like a quarterback, 666 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: and we're going to present it as if you're kind 667 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: of going through the motions of sacking a quarterback, and 668 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: then Paulie you pick up the story from there. So 669 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 1: I said to Rodney, Roddy, this is so everybody could 670 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 1: hear go, can you show us how to legally hit 671 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,280 Speaker 1: a quarterback and then how to illegally hit a quarterback 672 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 1: because we were discussing roughing the pass or it's a 673 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,879 Speaker 1: big topic back then, like lowering your helmet. And then 674 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,400 Speaker 1: right before it went I kind of whispered to him, 675 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: ago give mcloving a little shot, and he didn't need 676 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: any prompting. He goes to me, oh, I'm giving him 677 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,439 Speaker 1: a shot, but if you watch the video, he both 678 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:29,440 Speaker 1: hits mclovin and mclovin's hair flops like David Spade and 679 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: Tommy Boy in the convertible. But then he also cradles 680 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 1: McLevin with his backhand and gently like a baby, drops 681 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,240 Speaker 1: him to the ground. He hits you pretty good though. Yeah, 682 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 1: it was like getting hit by a truck and landing 683 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,280 Speaker 1: on a mattress. It was the most unbelievable phenomenon. Yeah, see, 684 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 1: which it really says a lot about Rodney's strength when 685 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 1: he cradles mclovin, because I don't know if people realize 686 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: how solid of a person Andrew is. Yeah, thank you. Yeah, 687 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: I mean not as a person, but like physical physically. 688 00:36:58,040 --> 00:36:59,799 Speaker 1: I don't mean I actually like as Yeah, I mean 689 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 1: a person though. The dude is solid. He's got some 690 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 1: haft behind him. Rodney is one of those guys you 691 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:06,960 Speaker 1: shake his hand and you feel the strength. It's just 692 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: like a superhuman strength. Yeah. Yeah, when he hits, he 693 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: means to hurt. I saw this where an NFL executive 694 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: or NFL executives were ranking the AFC's teams one through 695 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: sixteen and Mike Sando mclevind, Yeah, the athletic formerly VSPN 696 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 1: who does a lot of like surveys of executives. Okay, 697 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 1: the number one, do you want to start at the 698 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,759 Speaker 1: top of the AFC teams or do you want to 699 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: start at the bottom. The worst AFC team. You're gonna 700 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 1: get that one. The Texans second worst. This is according 701 00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 1: to a survey with They had a ballot that they 702 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: handed out to these executives, and I think this one's surprising. 703 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 1: The second one. Okay, so NFL executives ranking the AFC 704 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 1: teams one through sixteen. The second worst team, according to 705 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: the executives, has a quarterback the Tony Romo thinks could 706 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: be one of the top three quarterbacks eventually, your New 707 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 1: York Jets. Then it's the Cincinnati Bengals, Jags, Raiders. You know, 708 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:20,879 Speaker 1: Raiders can't afford another subpar season. Mike Mayot can't. John 709 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: Gruden has a ten year contract. Then it's the Dolphins, 710 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:31,880 Speaker 1: the Broncos, Steelers, Patriots are eight, Titans seven, Chargers sixth. 711 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,919 Speaker 1: Then it's the Colts at five, the Browns at four, 712 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:39,359 Speaker 1: Ravens at three, Buffalo two, Kansas City one. Yeah, Polly, yeah. 713 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 1: The Raiders were eight and eight last year. They were 714 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 1: second division. But they don't feel like they're improving the 715 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: early year, you know, yeah, McLevin the one that surprised 716 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 1: me too. The Broncos pretty high. They're above the Dolphins 717 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 1: and the Raiders. Well you've been talking about all the 718 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,279 Speaker 1: young talent that they have offensively, Well, yeah, I've been 719 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 1: reading like a lot of like the insiders, like the 720 00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 1: PFF types, say that they have Jerry Judy's gonna break 721 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: out this year. No offense is really good Courtland Sutton. 722 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 1: I don't know, But don't you need a quarterback to 723 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 1: make them all? Well, Teddy's Teddy's not gonna throw deep 724 00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 1: and you have wide receivers. I mean, Jerry Judy is 725 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,760 Speaker 1: gonna want to go deep, and you got a quarterback 726 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,320 Speaker 1: who doesn't throw deep. Are you just gonna, you know, 727 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 1: dink and dunk. And that's probably what's going to happen 728 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: at least for this year. But the Raiders, um Man, 729 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,399 Speaker 1: I question, you know some of their draft picks here, 730 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,759 Speaker 1: Um Gruden has not had a great return to football here, 731 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 1: and you've got a pretty steady quarterback here, you got 732 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 1: a running back, you got a tight end. I make 733 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 1: handsome skilled position players there. It's just they make a 734 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 1: lot of mistakes special teams they make, they make a 735 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: lot of mistakes. Yeah, club, and he has this huge contract, 736 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: so possibly happened nothing? Nothing? Did you see Mark Davis, 737 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 1: the owner of the Raiders. He's building a home in 738 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 1: Vegas that is supposed to be a scaled down version 739 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: of the stadium that they play in in Vegas. Um, 740 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:09,359 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to be his neighbor. Let's just put 741 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: it that way, where you're looking out your window in 742 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 1: Vegas and you're like, oh my god, it's um it's 743 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:20,879 Speaker 1: an interesting, interesting design. Just because you have money doesn't 744 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 1: mean you have taste. He has time, and they're gonna 745 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:27,800 Speaker 1: be selling concessions and souvenirs on the front law you're 746 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 1: making that. Yes, well you were talking about the Broccos. 747 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: You know, the Broncos had the ninth pick in the 748 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,920 Speaker 1: draft last year and they passed on Justin Fields. And 749 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 1: now if they get a little bit better and they're 750 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,640 Speaker 1: picking fourteenth fifteen sixteenth, they may stay in that quarterback 751 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:46,879 Speaker 1: limbo is Teddy Bridgewater's good Drew Lockez. I think they 752 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 1: thought that they were in the Aaron Rodgers sweepsticks. I 753 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 1: truly believe that, But I would have taken justin fields, 754 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: because you do have a pretty good nucleus there. You 755 00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 1: just don't have a good quarterback. You don't have a 756 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:03,280 Speaker 1: stick any quarterback you can count on. Yeahma, club, I disagree. 757 00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 1: I'm looking at pictures of this house he's building. Okay, 758 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 1: if you had all the money, would you want to 759 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 1: rebuild like Crosley Field or something in your backyard? I 760 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 1: think that's so funny and cool. No, really, do you 761 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 1: think that looks good? I think it's interesting. I don't know, like, yeah, 762 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 1: it's like a childhood fantasy I always wanted. Uh yeah, 763 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:26,720 Speaker 1: But he already has the stadium. You know, Crosley Field 764 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 1: doesn't exist anymore in Cincinnati. That okay, I'm gonna bring 765 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: it back. He already has the stadium. Just go live 766 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 1: at the stadium like Kanye, Like as Kanye left the stadium. 767 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:45,480 Speaker 1: Money in Atlanta. Yeah, he was living in Medes Benz album. Yeah. 768 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:49,879 Speaker 1: I saw where Jake Paul the pseudo boxer called out 769 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 1: Tim Tebow that he wants to fight Tim Tebow. And 770 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 1: I give him credit because he knows that he can't 771 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: box against people who can really box. And but to 772 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 1: call out Tim Tebow, okay, you know he's calling out 773 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: Connor McGregor, although he did call out Canelo Alvarez, which 774 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: he can buy it. He can box, he can fight, 775 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,879 Speaker 1: but you know, he stays in the news. I give 776 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 1: him credit staying in the news because and maybe he 777 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 1: brings boxing back. Am I interested in watching him fight? No? 778 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 1: I mean he should have gotten knocked out this last fight, 779 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: but he somehow ended up winning. The script didn't have 780 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: him knocked out. Is that what it was. Yeah, when 781 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: you script out a fight, you gotta stick to it. 782 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 1: Dan Well, I'm not afraid of being sued on that one. 783 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,879 Speaker 1: He might want to he might want to fight you. Yes, boy, 784 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 1: Oh by the way, I would do it. Yeah, I 785 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 1: don't think it's going to really help his career. Tibo's 786 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 1: like Forrest Gump three weeks ago. He's a Jaguar tight end. 787 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 1: This week he's being hired by First Take on Fridays. 788 00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 1: He's gonna box some guy. Oh no, he's not boxing. 789 00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:59,799 Speaker 1: He didn't say he's gonna box. Oh he will if 790 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 1: they for too. No, No, he will not. No, Tebow 791 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:04,319 Speaker 1: will not. Really, he's not gonna get in the right. 792 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: You know he's got in his corner.
