  Speaker 1: to end it. Congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs who
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: had done it yet again. And welcome to a Monday
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: day after Super Bowl fifty seven. We're finally in the
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: off season edition. It's the off season. What it is
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: of NFL Now on NFL Network From our newsroom in
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles. I hope you didn't you know forget to
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: go to work or school today. We're happy that you
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: were here with us. My name is andrews Ceciliano. This
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: is Steve White actually taking in Kansas City. There's gonna
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: be a lot of absences called in at work and
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: school because everyone is going to be in the streets
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: doing the stinky leg. Try to do what Travis Kelsey
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: did in the end zone of the first quarter. By
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: the way, I think I heard like America tries to
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: colins sick today something like that. Yeah, today it might
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: be greater than my homestade. Missouri. We're here working hard
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: for you though. We're happy to be here in a
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: game we had last night. Patrick Mahomes Jalen Hurts picking
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: up fourteen seven of the second quarter. Jalen Hurts just
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: dropped the football. Steve and I are arguing whether or
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: not Nick Bolton could have been Defensive m VP if
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: he had two scooping scores, but he had one, I
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: would have voted for him. He had one first fumble
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: return for a touch shout at the Super Bowl since
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Bleak Jackson and Santa Clara in Super Bowl fifty. Pick
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: it up fourth quarter, Eagles need a touchdown Eagles need
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: a two point conversion. They get the touchdown from Jalelen Hurts.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: They would eventually tie it and we are thirty five
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: all but Mahomes has a shot, and he has tied out,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: and he has he has an ankle to run on
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: somehow twenty six yards on this scrambled inside the one
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: incredible play and you see him pull away from guys
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: like a San Reddick on that bad leg while he's running.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: I was told he couldn't run. He can rat sorceing
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: bad soorcing. This is the play of the game, the
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: player that people will be talking about in Philadelphia for
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: years to come. A hold is called on James Bradberry
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: for tugging the jersey of Juju Smith Schuster. Yeah, it
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: was a timing of it, right. They let physical play
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: happen throughout the game to call it. Then he's was
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: really driving everybody that was on third down. It allowed
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: the Eagles to milk the clock, or rather the Chiefs
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: to milk the clock in It leads and the Harrison
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Butker touchdown thirty eight thirty five Chiefs beat the Eagles.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: That competitor in you to be in this game, that's
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: what you work for your entire life. Uh and uh,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I knew I wasn't coming out of this game. And
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: even with that high angles brain that get kind of
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: reaggravated a little bit. I'll worry about that in the
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: all season. Why in the world is it that when
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: you guys are down double digits with this guy at
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the helm, that there is no panic in this team? Yeah? Well,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: they trust him first of all. And then he goes
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: in at halftime and I'm going to you, okay, and
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: he goes, can you you know, can you do this?
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: I can do everything. Just leave me alone and let
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: me go play. And and then the big old line
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: stepped up for him. I thought they did a great job,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: the running backs, receivers rather the great ones like him.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: The great ones make everybody around them better, man, and
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: nobody does it better than this guy right here. The
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: patrick and the offense did a great job to get
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: us in field goal range. And then I had the
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: easy part. The offensive line did a great job walking,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: great staff, great hold, and you know, thankfully the ball
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: went through. All glory to God. How do you not
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: give up a sack to that defense? Yeah? Just uh,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: you know, we've been hearing it all week just about
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: how historical their d line is and how no one
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: can block them. So, uh, you know, we wanted to
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: come out and make a statement tonight, so we uh
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: came out and protected our butts off. You know, gotta
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: go into the run game too. So that was a
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: lot of fun. I can't really put it into words
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: when I'm feeling right now, just been so blessed, so lucky,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: so fortunate, and man, I'm just proud of probably part
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: of his team, probably be part of his parties, guys
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: on his team, his coaches, this organization is probably be
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: here for real. There's nothing you can really say to
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: uh a loved one in in a situation like that. Um,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: you know you uh you Joe ground all the time
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: and say that you want to be your brother in
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: the biggest stage ever. But it's, um, it's a it's
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: a weird feeling. It's a weird feeling. And that team
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: that uh, that team had had great leadership, great coaches.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Obviously at the it came down to the end and
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: we got all the respect in the world for those Eagles. Man,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: But there's nothing really I could say to him, mother
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: than I love him and uh and he and he
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: played a hell of the year at hell of the season, man,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: have that emotion? Is Jason Kelsey gonna hang it up?
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: He wouldn't say. After the game, Travis Kelsey admitted that
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: he only has a couple of more years left and
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: and what a day it was for him, and what
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: a day it was for Patrick Mahomes as well. When
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: you thought maybe it's over at halftime, I mean the
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: way that Twitter or Chief's Kingdom were really any football
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: fan collectively held our breaths here just hoping that we
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: would get the second half that we all deserve and
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: an end to a great season with football's greatest player.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Let's let's call Patrick Mahomes wood. He is on the field.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: We got it, and the Chiefs get another one. Two
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl wins, three appearances in the span of four years.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: They are the champions of the NFL and Omar Ruiz
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: is still in Arizona with the story here of a
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: total team effort. Omart not just the guy that won
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: the m p P. Yeah, we talked about Andy Reid
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: and Patrick Mahomes and that electrifying Kansas City Chiefs offense
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: all the time, and that praise is so well deserved,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: but to win the Super Bowl, they needed that collective
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: team effort, and that's what they got. We saw the
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Nick Bolton scoop and score with the defensive touchdown, then
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Candarius Tony longest punt return in Super Bowl history. They
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: got the special teams contribution. I asked Brett Feach, the
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Chiefs general manager, after the game, which of these two
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Super Bowls is more special to him, this second one
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: or the first one they got after the twenty nineteen season.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: He said this one was because of how they turned
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: over the roster. They had so many young players contributing
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: to this football team. In fact, two rookies, Sky Moore
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Isaiah Pachecko scored touchdowns last night. Then you have another
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: newcomer in Cadarius Tony scored a third Toner. So they're
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: getting contributions in almost every way. I spoke with safety
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Justin Reid after the game. I had a conversation with
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: him at last year's NFL Honors when he was there
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: representing the Houston Texans. As there Walter Payton Man of
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: the Year nominee, he didn't know what his few football
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: future was. He was picked up by the Chiefs. He
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: took great pride in coming to this team as one
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: of the newcomers to buy in to that super Bowl
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: standard where it is now with Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: super Bowl or bust every single year for them, if
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: they don't win the Super Bowl, it is a disappointment
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: as a newcomer. He took pride in upholding that standard,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: and not only that, helping bring those young players along.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: It's been so well documented about how many young players
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: and rookies were playing in the secondary. They stepped up
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: late in the year. They stepped up again in the
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl, doing enough to win in that huge Super
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Bowl fifties seven win. The Kansas City Chiefs perhaps now
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: guys on the cusp of a dynasty here. Yeah, there
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: was a lot of dynasty talk postgame omar, you know,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: in the Chiefs media room and in in locker room
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: and things like that. You talk about the collective effort.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: We cannot overlook what this offensive line did. Right again,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: you heard Creed Humphrey telling Stacy Dale's we heard all
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: for two weeks about how great the Eagles defensive front was,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: and they took that to heart, and you saw coming
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: out of halftime the commitment to run the football second
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: half nineteen rushes for one hundred and nineteen yards after
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: having the seven rushes for thirty nine yards in the
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: first half. Also, Patrick Mahomes scrambled a little bit, but
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: they didn't get a sack on Patrick Mahomes. And that
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: was a big thing coming in because you heard about
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: all the sack totals about that Eagles defensive front. So
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: the way that offensive line played, and when you see
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: some things when you watch this tape over and over,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: you're seeing those guys on the edges getting knocked to
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: the ground. Sometimes they said they slipped on that kind
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: of scratchy surface, but they were held down there. The
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: running backs were chipping those past, not letting me get
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: free runs. I mean, it was very physical up front.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: But that was a huge key to what happened in
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: this game and how the momentum changed in the second half.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Was the guys up front for the Kansa to chief
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: on both sides. The ball tired hearing about how great
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: the Eagles were, and they wanted to prove themselves and
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: they absolutely acquitted themselves quite well. First team to rush
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: for a hundred yards in the second half that season
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: against the Eagles on there. Go ahead, Yeah, Orlando Brown
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: here at all that talk. In fact, he said, put
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: zero sacks on a shirt. Andy Reid challenging those big
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: fellas all week long, and they certainly responded. Tray Smith
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: telling me after the game that they didn't necessarily play
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: a perfect game, but they just knew they had to
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: keep Patrick Mahomes clean and eventually number fifteen would elevate
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: the team, and he certainly did that, the offensive line
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: responding to that challenge, and like you said, Steve, a
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: huge part of last night's win. Also a huge part
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: of last night's win. Let's give Andy Reid some flowers
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: here as well. And Andy did say after the game,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: when asked point blank will play it later by our
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: our Emmanuel Sanders on the field, are you gonna retire?
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: He said no. He reiterated that again this morning. But
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: for all of us have talked about the game all week,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: and obviously we we did until we were blue in
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: the face or blue suits in the face here today.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: We all said the Eagles might have the better team,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: but that you can't overlook the fact that Patrick Mahomes
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: and Andy Reid are still on the other sideline. And
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: what read did I said the play of the game
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: with his play designed in the red zone. I've never
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: been against Andy Reid in the red zone. But let's
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: look specifically at how wide open and how wide open
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Canarius Tony got. We have the Canarius Tony play from
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: the red d he goes in motion. Obviously you got
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Darius Slay going in motion and the safety to go over.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: I have that quarter bam. Great job Ted Wyn from
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: the Athletic pointing out the similarity to something Doug Peterson
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: ran earlier this year. Here is it the second time
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: around sky Moore the other side of the and then
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: here's Steve white Is week four against the Eagles. Doug
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Peterson got Jamal Agnew loose the same play, same thing,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: you know, And part of it is the concentration and
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the focus on the slot. Guys. You look at the
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: coverage on the slot. Everybody breaks with him initially. That
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: gives the motion man the space to cut out on
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: the slot. Both times in the Super Bowl was Travis Kelsey.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Clearly the Eagles were like, we're not gonna let Kelsey
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: beat us because that's Mahome's favorite red zone target. So
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: when the y guy motioned Tony or sky More. They
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: were like, we're gonna make sure we've got a Brackett
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: or whatever coverage we're gonna play on Kelsey and then
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: that's a little duck out. I mean, Eric bi Enemy
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: said post game, the offensive coordinated for the Chiefs. We
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: saw some things in coverage in the first half and
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: some things on film. He did not specified whose film.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: It might have been the Jacks film that we knew
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: we could work those plays in the red zones. Doug
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Peterson Andy Reid protege. Obviously, Doug Peterson deserves some credit
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: for his Super Bowl play calling just five years ago
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: for the Eagles, and now Andy Reid with the creative
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: play call. Really just a great second half here all around.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: When Mahomes looked as if that ankle might truly limited,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: it was the same ankle truly living him into the
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: second half, and it did it. The guy started running.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: They ran the football as well, if I say, but checko.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: And to the end, the Chiefs are Super Bowl champions.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: All right. What a week for the Kelsey brothers. What
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: a night for Travis Kelsey, who caught a touchdown of
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: the first quarter, who just had a ridiculous game who
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: won another ring and broke out the Steaky Legs. Thank you,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Andrew Um and it capped off an amazing emotional year.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: He joined the guys on the Field game Day fund
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: the podcast New Heights, and he also dabbles in football
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: along the way. So I'm curious, what was the conversation
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: you had with your brother right after the game? Man,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: There's nothing I could tell him right now that, uh
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: that'll make anything feel better. You know, I've been in
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: a situation where I've lost the Super Bowl and arguably
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: a worse situation than he's in right now. And you know,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Philadelphia has nothing to be ashamed about that they had
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: an unbelievable team, unbelievable season and they went down to
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: the wire right there, and uh, you know, all I
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: could tell him was I love him, and uh, thanks
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: for making this one of the best years of my life. Man.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: I got to get closer to my brother throughout doing
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: the podcast throughout the year UM and had a whole
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: lot of fun doing it. And I appreciate everybody for
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: for appreciating my family and and our dynamic throughout this
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: entire wild Super Bowl weekend. It's been. It's been a
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: wild run how much fun was this the last two
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: weeks because you had your mom and your dad on
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: the podcast. Your mom was doing every interview in the
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: world that was awesome this year. She just seemed to
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: enjoy it and kind of relish the opportunity. How much
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: did this mean? Because it can be a little much sometimes. No,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: it definitely was a little bit much. And me and
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: my brother got together earlier on in the week and say,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: you know, we might need to tell mom and dad
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: they can say no to media. You don't have to
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: say yes to everything. Um. But at the end of
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: the day, like I said, the way people are, the fans, uh,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: the entire world, Um kind of jumped on our our bagwagon,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: our Kelsey bandwagon and uh and kind of lifted us
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: and uh gave my mother and my father all the
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: flowers that they deserve in life for for being raising
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: us the way they did. Um. It was the ultimate
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: ultimate season. Man, How does Travis Kelsey two times World
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: champions Up, World champion already sound good? But two times
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: it solidifies the dog It's solidifies and to do it
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: the way we did through the ups and downs, having
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: that hiccup in uh in Tampa. UM two years ago,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: not being able to get back to the dance last year, um,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: and then fighting through every single game in the playoff
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: to get to here. Man, it's uh, it's so sweet, man,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: if feels amazing. There is only one player in the
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: history of the sport that has scored more postseason touchdowns
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: than Travis Kelsey, and that is the one and only
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Jerry Rice, the Goat, the one and only Jerry Rice. Baby,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: it's it's so cool to be in uh, to be
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: in the conversation with a guy like that. Um, it's
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: just um, it's a special feeling man. And I uh,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: I don't want to stop anytime soon. Man, I'm I'm
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: coming for you, Jerry. So I'm curious for a guy
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: who has put himself in the discussions being the greatest
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: at this position now all time, how the heck do
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: you get so open about to acts that? Seriously, Coach
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Andy Reid. Man, Coach Andy Reid, you gotta understand the
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: intentions of the play caller and uh and and and
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: understand the direction of the offense. But at the end
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: of the day, uh, coach read, uh seems that schemes
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: schemes some things up and dial some things up that
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: just give me button naked open in the middle of
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: the field and I and I appreciated him for it
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: every single time, and everybody appreciates the visual on that one.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of people that are saying, Okay, Patrick
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: Mahomes is great, but he's only twenty seven. I want
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: to see more of the body of work. What's what
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: they're saying. That's what the would say. Just a bunch
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: of jabronies out there. Pat my Home's baby, your m
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: v P super Bowl champion twice twice, so the top
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: five quarterback of all time, Numero uno number one, number one.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: You'll see it as as at all all I'm calling
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: it now. But right now, man, I'm coming on my
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: guy to be the best to ever do when it's
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: all said and done all and I know he's the
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: best to do it right now. Hey, thanks for having
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: some fun with us. Time super Bowl champions. Travis Kelsey,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: best to do it right now, best ever Travis Kelsey.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: Speaking of this quarterback, I mean we need to start
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: having the conversation about Travis Kelsey among the best ever
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: at his position. You look at the numbers here, he's
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: gonna be thirty four Steve next to Fall thirty four
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: in October has another ring. The numbers are are ridiculous,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: and as we welcome to Omar Ruiz here as well.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, he has to be in the conversation about
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: the best ever. I mean, he and Jason Kelsey maybe
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: retiring as well. I mean, let's give both of those
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: guys some credit. Absolutely. I mean, so let's let's start
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: up with Travis since we're talking about the Titans. He's
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: right there. I mean, it's it's him and Gronk, Right,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Gronx got all the Super Bowls. You know, people are
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: gonna make the argument for Rob Gronkowski. He was a
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: great receiving tight end, but he also was vital to
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: the run game, right. He was an incredible blocker. He
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: did a lot of things um and plus he played
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: on a team that, other than Randy Moss, probably didn't
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: have a potential Pro Bowl or or Hall of Fame
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: type caliber wide receiver. So he was the guy everyone
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: who was getting the ball, and he still made it happen.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: But with Kelsey, it's like, if there's any way you
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: can stop him, you could slow down this office. Nobody
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: has cracked that code you mentioned he's thirty four. It's
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: not like he's new in the league, so he's impossible
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: to stop in the passing game. This is a different
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: type of NFL in terms of the tight end is
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: the big wide receiver, it is the fullback. It is
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: something that is the ultimate queen on the chessboard that
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: Andy Reid plays with and with Having a guy like Kelly,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: isn't that catch? I mean, for a guy who comes
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: through so much in the big time, in the big
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: moments when you've got to move the chains, he is.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: He is right there. So it between him and Gronk,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: it just depends on what flavor of JABRONI is, m T.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Whatever it is you want to have, Well, can we
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: get it out of the way. To Omar, no one
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: said they would never win. I know Travis Kelsey likes
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: to say that some teams thought the or some of
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: us thought the a f C West was gonna be
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: a lot better this year, but no one said there's
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: no way. A lot of people were picking the Bills.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: Come on, well, a lot of I think they heard
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: all that talk about the a f C West and
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: perhaps not being favorites in their division. When they had
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: four straight runs of a f C championship games and
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: turning over that roster, the things that we talked about
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: a while ago. But when you have the tal words
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: like Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey, you have
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: a chance. And Travis Kelsey continues to climb up the
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: record book. It's not just for the postseason. He's about
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: fourth all time now in terms of all time tight ends.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: He's had about nine complete seasons now. Drafted in and
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: then really got rolling in. Was productive even when Alex
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Smith was the quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, and
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: time and time again you heard him credit Andy Reid
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: for getting him open. But it's his body, it's his size,
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: it's the way he moves, it's the way he thinks
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: as a quarterback, growing up. Finding that connection with Patrick Mahomes.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: There's no sign of this train slowing down, especially with
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: the younger players that they got so many contributions from
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: and all those rookie contracts the Chiefs are dealing with
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: right now, with Mahomes, with Kelsey, with Reid and all
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: those young players. A lot to look forward to here
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: in Kansas City. And as we see, the quarterback numbers
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: keep going up, and up and up. Understandably, the cat
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: keeps going up and up and up. That deal that
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Mahomes side a couple of years ago now looks like
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: a massive bargain. Even the a lot of that big
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: money guarantees a little bit later, or his big cap
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: numbers rather are later that is going to kick in.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: But they have the pieces here, and they have Travis Kelsey,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: and they have Andy Reid, which is a huge part
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: of it. Thus they have another great shot next year.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: Speaking of Andy, confirmed afterwards and again this morning, he
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: is coming back. What did last night mean for his
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: plaque in Canton next? Nothing can stop me. Two weeks
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: away from the combine, Friends right around the corner, do
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: not miss the chance to see the next stars of
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: the NFL live on field workouts March second, when they
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: begin exclusively right here on NFL Network and on NFL Plus.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: NFL Now will be there the entire week leading up
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: to the on field drills, only two weeks away, two
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: weeks that is after Andy Reid are the Chiefs one
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: themselves yet another super Bowl? And yeah that one was
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: kind of cool, kind of cool to beat his old team,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: a team for whom he still has all kinds of respect,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: all kinds of love, but it's still beating his old team.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: I know, I got asset a lot, and I wasn't
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: really expecting to, but I um, I didn't put my
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: s thought into all that. You know, I'm enjoying what
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: I'm doing, and I got this guy over here that
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: it is pretty good players, So I mean, we're doing okay.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: That was Andy responding to the question about retirement. Jake
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Glazer had the report yesterday before the game, suggesting that
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: Reid may have decisions to make afterwards. Uh No, he said,
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: I'm back as long as they will have me back.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: And I was two forty seven victories, but more importantly
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: two Super Bowl wins. Bill Belichick, Don Shula, Tom Landry
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: and Andy Reid the only coaches now with two hundred
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: regular season wins and multiple Lombardi Trophies. I don't think
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: there was any doubt Steve that he's gonna go to
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Canton one day. But the way that Andy got his
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: second ring by beating the team that he helped lay
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: the foundation for initially probably makes it that much sweet. Yeah.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, and look you talk about at the time,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: he's already coach, right, what fourteen seasons in Philly, ten
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: in Kansas City. He's he's evolved, right. He's also changed
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: as a head coach to to go with some of
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: the flow of today's games, spreading things out a little
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: bit offensively, doing some things. He's got the coaching tree.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Look at how many of his assistants have gone on
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: to be head coaches. Why Eric the enemy is offensive
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: coordinator isn't still baffles me? Um, But and he reads
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: one of these guys. You know, a lot of times
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Hall of Fame voters say, look, when that five year
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: eligibility rulers up, we like to go with players because
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: they're the ones who actually put it on the field.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: But it's gonna be hard to keep Andy Reid out
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: for very long. I mean, I don't know if he's
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: first bout, I don't know how that that's gonna work
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: when the time comes. But he's just at dynamic because
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: coached a lot of great players, He's developed a lot
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: of great players. But the respect he's earned throughout the
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: league is just amazing. Be Get that second Super Bowl championship,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: especially you know, two of the past couple of years.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, he solidified himself among the greats when I
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: think the way he responded after they lost Tyreek Hill,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: because I think a lot of the talk might have been, well, yeah,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: it might be easy to coach when you have Travis
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Kelsey and Tyreek Hill. But revamping that wide receiver room,
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: Andy Reid proving he's not just an XS and o's
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: offensive genius, the wizard that everything that he is, but
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: the leader of men, the contributor to the locker room,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: the culture that they built in Kansas City, all the
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: winds that he had in Philly now in Kansas City.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: Certainly an al teimer. Andy Reid is and it'll be
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: fun once he does hang him up whenever that is
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: a few years from now. Uh to have that discussion
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: of where he ends up all time in terms of
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: NFL head coaching. And he returned sixty five and around
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: a month and again afterwards he said, as long as
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: they will have me here, I will be here. And
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: why would you leave when you have Patrick Mahomes and
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: you realize that every time you play, you have a
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: chance to win, no matter whether it's the preseason, the
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: regular season, the postseason. And he's gonna get you there.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: And what a combination they have yes, there's Belichick and Brady.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: There's also red in Mahomes and though they don't have
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: the same number of rings, but last night was impressive.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: The Kansas City Chiefs your Super Bowl fifty seven champions.
