• 1:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I walked through the boys normal commercady and then
• 1:30
  Speaker 6: when we finished, you were all about what's up? I
• 1:33

  Speaker 3: It is so fucking funny.
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: It gets funnier the more you watch it, keep catching
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: on to something you didn't know he is.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: It's the awkward. It's the awkward, like shoulders struck the best,
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: some tough, hard nose, run it down your throats in
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: a clouded dust. Yeah, dude, he's so funny. He played football.

• 2:17
  Speaker 3: them on, man.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: But thanks for coming on though, bro.
• 2:19
  Speaker 7: Like I feel like we've been connected for a little
• 2:21
  Speaker 7: bit because like we've seen you rock the merch. We've
• 2:26
  Speaker 7: started following each other and I'm just thinking, Yo, the fucking.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: The boy yea so great, hope.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's following like that's fucking sick. Yeah, how'd you
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: get onto the how'd you get on the bus?
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: And I'm a fan of the POD for a lot
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: of reasons. Some of the guys in the locker room,
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: you guys haven't talked about POD in the locker room,
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: but uh.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: No.
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: But I'm a fan of the POD for a lot
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: of reasons. I think there's not a lot of you know,
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: when people think of NFL players, it's always you know,
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: this stardom individual you know, it gets a lot of
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: individual attention not kind of understanding the dynamic of the
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: locker room. And you have two guys who are on
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: different spectrums and different journeys of a football team who
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: came together in a pod, and a lot of your guys'
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: podcasts are just it's the locker room. And so for me,
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: it's like, oh my god, that's like I'm sitting in
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: the car and the off season throwing on a pod
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: as I'm in.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: The locker room. Locker room with the boys.
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: Feel that, and so I feel like a lot of
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: other people they they're you know, I don't know if
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: they know that, but subconsciously they're like, damn, that's probably
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: what goes on in the locker room.
• 3:32
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm a fan. I really am a fan. I
• 3:34
  Speaker 8: like the pod a lot.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Dude. I'm so happy you said that, because that's literally
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: like our whole goal is. Like everyone who you when
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: you're playing in the league, like when you first get
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: in the lead, there's those year ten guys and they
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: like leave and they come back and you always ask them, hey,
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: what do you miss And everybody says, there's a couple
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: of answers, but everyone always says they missed the boys.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: They missed the locker room, and like, as you get older,
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: you kind of fear that. So when Will and I
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: started this like that, we wanted that to be the vibe.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: We wanted to be the vibe where people are sitting down,
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: we're asking the same dumb questions Kobe or Lebron or
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: Michael we're asking. First time he jerked off like just
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: crazy like conversations about the Lebron question. Yeah, but you know,
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: that's always a question, and it's always a question. The
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: locker was the first thing came to my It's a
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: popular question. I don't think we have talked about that,
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: but it is, like, it's fucking awesome, dude, and it's
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: great to know that, like the forty nine or something,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: they roll with the.
• 4:21
  Speaker 8: Boys, it's the best. It's a good locker room.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: Kittle kind of steam had that, Yeah, I would say.
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: So, you know, for for me personally, I came in
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: the middle of the year not knowing what was going on.
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: You know, I didn't know I knew people, but didn't
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: know people, which was a weird experience.
• 4:37
  Speaker 8: But you can just tell.
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: I think there was twenty two guys from the Super
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: Bowl team a few years ago, who are still on
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: the team. So they they'd set a culture and a
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: standard that had been there for a while, and you know,
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: I was just pumped up to join them.
• 4:50
  Speaker 7: What was it like getting traded? It was you You're
• 4:54
  Speaker 7: the friend. You're like the face of the Panthers, like.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: The fun when we would play you guys, they'd be like,
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: if you stop this guy, we have a chance to win.
• 5:01
  Speaker 7: He's gonna touch the ball three times a game. First
• 5:03
  Speaker 7: overall draft pick for me Fantasy Football. Thank you for
• 5:06
  Speaker 7: Holden's true I was like, Okay, he's had a couple
• 5:08
  Speaker 7: of jurry bugs last couple years. This is he's gonna
• 5:10
  Speaker 7: get it right this year.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: Appreciate it.
• 5:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah, take us through that trade, bro, because that's I mean,
• 5:13
  Speaker 7: that was a massive headline.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: It was it was.
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: Inn you know, you hear about it, but you never
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: I don't know. For me, I never thought i'd get traded.
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: I thought I was a Panther forever. I'm like, I
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: bought a house there, this is home, and I'd heard
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: the rumors in the offseason, so I you know, obviously
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: I called the GM. I'm like, hey, man, just you know,
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: I just need to hear it from you. Any any truth,
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: and he was super honest. He's like, look, absolutely not.
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: We don't want to do this, you know, but we'll
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: listen to everything. And that's that's fair. I'm like, sounds good.
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: Just let me know. But I went into the season, man,
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: I'm like, look, I'm all in. It is what it is.
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: I I legitimately forgot about that, thinking I'm on the
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: team I play. And I think it was four or
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: five games and the rumors had continued to gone and
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: coach rule got fired. We had lost a few games
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: in a row, and I figured, like, if this was
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: going to happen, this is how it happens.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: And you're anticipated it a little bit.
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: I didn't, maybe subconsciously, but I never I never addressed it,
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: you know, openly. And so, uh, we played La, we
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: played the Rams. It was a first game with Coach Wilkes,
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: and we lost. I had a pretty good game, though,
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: and I just remember my agent saying it could happen
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: this week, but I don't think so. And so early
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: in the week it was you know, I don't think
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: this is happening. And then the week kept going and
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: going and there was more of a chance and I
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: was just like, look, if it's going to happen, make
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: a house preparing for Tampa. So for you know, anyone
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: who doesn't know what it's like to get traded in
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: the middle of a week. You know, I'm in practice
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: in meetings Wednesday, treatment practice and meetings Thursday, treatment eleven
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: thirty pm. I get a call trading me to the Niners. YadA, YadA,
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: seven am. Flight didn't say by to one person. Practice
• 6:50
  Speaker 5: with the Niners Friday. Try to scramble together, you know,
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: a few plays in a little package. Go play the
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: Chiefs on Sunday for the Niners. And then from there
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: you just so.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: You when when you call the GM you obviously there's
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: a bit of an anxiety. And then when you after
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: you play the Rams, your agents like, hey, probably won't happen,
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: but it could happen this week. How does that like
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: affect you during the season leading up to that point,
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: because obviously everyone's always all in, Like the guys who
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: really care about football, they're gonna be all in for
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: their team, but there's gonna be some sort of level
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: of you got to feel some sort of way knowing
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: there's a possibility of this team, whether you feel like
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: they're giving up on you or they want to move
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: on for whatever reason. Like what was your thought process
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: like up until getting traded.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's I think I legitimately blocked it
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: out for the first four weeks and then like like
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: you said, like that week where it was like, hey,
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: this could happen. I mean it's all I thought about.
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: You know, It's like it was completely in the back
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: of my head, like consuming the unknown. Yeah, it consumes you,
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: but you have to do your best. Were I was,
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: you know, prepping for Tampa. So I just started, you know,
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: doing all that and just getting ready to go. And
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: I figured, hey, don't change a thing, because regardless you're
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: going to be on a team, whether it's you know,
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: you get tryed Tuesday or whether you get traded Thursday,
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: whatever it is. I just didn't want to prolong it.
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: I wanted to play in every game this year. That
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: was a you know, big deal to me to be
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: able to suit up and play in every game, and
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: so I just wanted it to happen sooner than later.
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: But uh no, it definitely consumes you. I mean, it's
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: in the back of your head even in practice. I'm like, dude,
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: just don't do anything stupid, like who knows what's going
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: to happen, Like I was warming up for like an
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: hour just to make sure I'm you know, checking the box.
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: So yeah, it definitely consumes you a little.
• 8:26
  Speaker 7: Then you I was gonna say, as your initial reaction
• 8:29
  Speaker 7: when you got traded, is it pissed off.
• 8:32
  Speaker 8: It's so weird.
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: It's a weird deal because there's so many emotions, and
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: the first emotions probably anger, like man, you guys don't
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: want me anymore? Like that's really what it is. You know,
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: you can call it what it is. Well, they got
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: a lot for you. It's like na, like you're you
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: think you're better off without me, That's what it is.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: And uh so you get that.
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: So it's you know, you're pissed off, but then you're excited,
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: but then you're you know, you got two days. So
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: I just think there's so many emotions that get flooded
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: at you at once that you're not really able to
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: address because they give you the playbook as soon as
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: you get there, and you're like, shit, man, that's all
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: that's you know, I gotta get going, so you can't
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: even address it. And I don't even know if I've
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: completely decompressed yet with the whole thing.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: But it's like a big breakup and you don't get
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: any chance after. Yeah, they break up into a next relationship, Yeah, immediately,
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: not even like the courting process of the other relationship.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: I'm healthy to leave this one. I go this one.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Your ex pis your next chick?
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what the hell is?
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: Hey, we're done. But she's gonna be great to me.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: She's gonna be fantastic. I hope she's good, and she was.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: She was. It had to be a little bit of
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: like Carolina was going down the dumbs pretty fast. And
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: then you get traded to the forty nine. Ers are like, hey,
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: you're pissed at first, and you're like, I'm going to
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: a good ball club here in.
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: A family that obviously is you know you know what though,
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: and I've this is dead honest truth. I legitimately thought
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: we could still win because we had a really hard
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: first part of the schedule, and so there was a
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: few games in there where we're like a god, like,
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: you hope you win these games, and you want to
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: win these games, but you got a new quarterback, you
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: got a new offense. There's gonna it's gonna come with
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: some growing pains. Our coordinator just got there, our quarterback
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: got there in training camp, Like I, I really believe
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: we could still win. So in the back of my head,
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: I'm like, you know, we could be one of those
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: Miami teams who wins nine straight later in the year.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: A couple of years ago.
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: I in my head believed that, and and they ended
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: up doing you know, kind of making.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: A little bit of the man.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: I mean, they got the mix for sure.
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: So I I, you know, you any way you could
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: get into the playoffs.
• 10:28
  Speaker 8: It doesn't really matter as long as.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: You get in.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: And so I thought we could and so that that
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: didn't help. I wasn't like, oh the hell, yeah, I'm
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: out like that. That that wasn't my mentality after got traded.
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: I loved Charlotte man and I was a captain on
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: that team. I love those guys, and uh so, you know,
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: it came with a lot of mixed emotions.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: So Thursday night, eleven thirty at night, you get traded,
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: seven am, you're on a flight and then you have
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: to play a game in forty eight hours essentially, like
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: what was when you talked to Shanahan and the boys,
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: like we like, hey, we need these ten plays out
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: of you during the game, because it was it was
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: a big surprise to everybody when you'd stepped on the
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: fields that that Sunday.
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I at first I didn't know if I was
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: gonna play. I don't think they knew if I was
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: gonna play. And then I think I got there and
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: and if you know how Shanahan's a wizard man. He
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: I think he started to put together a little bit
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: of a red zone package and maybe something like ten
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: plays here where he's like, you know, maybe we can
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: use him in a couple different ways and teach him
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: some base runs, get them some touches. And uh so
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: I had I was ready for ten to twelve plays.
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: I ended up playing like twenty. And poor Jimmy, like
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: he called like eight plays I've never heard. I know,
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: I couldn't tell you what one thing meant in the play,
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: like Jimmy, I'm sorry, but you got to tell me
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: what to do. Jimmy, you know obviously told me what
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: to do. But yeah, it was it was a different
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: game week experience.
• 11:44
  Speaker 7: I could say that, how was your how was your
• 11:46
  Speaker 7: transition going to San France?
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: It was great, man, it was great.
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: I mean, that's as seamless of a transition as I
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: could have imagined. From the coaches helping me out learning
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: the plays quick to shit. Brock Purty was walking through
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: with me on the turf field, you know, after hours,
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: just to try to, you know, get some reps in
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: so I could hear the plays. Kiddle and all the
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: leaders on the team. I mean, you're playing with guys
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: that are elite at what they do with all over
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: the locker room. So from them welcome me in. Man,
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: they felt like family right away. I was so thankful,
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: you know, because you never know how that's gonna go.
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: It could be some resentment or something like he was
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: a new guy, and uh no, they welcome in with
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: open arms. Everyone was so great and clicked those boys
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: right away.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, when you first got to stan Frandi, like who
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: did you gravitate towards early like? Or who I guess
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: who opened the doors to like a little bit of
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: a friendship early like boys.
• 12:42
  Speaker 8: Kittle was amazing, man.
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: He he called me when I got traded the GM
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: the Panthers called me. He told me getting traded. John
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: Lynch called me, and then Kittle called me. Did you
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: know before I'd known Kittle. I you know, hung out
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: with them for a while, you know, seeing him at
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: different events here and there. So he was like the
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: third call, and man, that meant a lot to me.
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: Obviously he's a leader on that team. And then sharing
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: the running back room with Kyle Juice check was great,
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: and that whole running back.
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: Room was awesome. Man, it's a good room.
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: And Elijah Mitchell and just being able to learn from
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: him and just no egos. No, you know, it was
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: a it was a seamless transition. But you know, I
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: saw like Trent Williams in the locker rooms like monster,
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: I saw man and Fred Warner is a beast, you know, Debo,
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: you all those guys.
• 13:31
  Speaker 9: So they are sad, So they're so close.
• 13:33
  Speaker 8: Man, like you can tell they've been through some shit together.
• 13:36
  Speaker 9: Yeah you know what I mean.
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: So when I stepped in there, I'm like, look, I
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: just just do your job.
• 13:40
  Speaker 8: You don't got to do anything else, but just do
• 13:42
  Speaker 8: your job.
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: Knowing that the Panthers were your first was your first organization.
• 13:46
  Speaker 7: Going to the San Francisco and seeing how that organization
• 13:48
  Speaker 7: was ran, was that eye opening between the two different organizations,
• 13:51
  Speaker 7: Like I know, for me when I went from Washington
• 13:53
  Speaker 7: to Tennessee. You saw right away, like how differently the
• 13:57
  Speaker 7: Titans would run stuff compared to compared.
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: To Washington, and the same when I went to the
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: Raiders and everything else.
• 14:01
  Speaker 7: Was it similar at all going from Carolina to San Francisco?
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: Uh No, it was pretty different in a lot of ways,
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: not even good or bad, but you just you get
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: in a routine in one team, or do your practice
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: schedule with when you get treatment, with when they practice,
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: when they lift, et cetera. So all that was different.
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: So I had to kind of adjust mid season all
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: of that stuff. So as far as the scheduling went,
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: it was much different. The playbook obviously was much different,
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: completely new terminology, and but I think you know, for me,
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: you I adapted pretty quick. And the other good thing
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: was we played Kansas City, where I chalk it up
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: to you know, scratch, like you played, but just now
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: you can get your bearings for a week. And then
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: we played LA the next week, and then we had
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: a buy, so I played in really one and a
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: half games, and then we had a buy where I
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: could really get used to everything and how things were ran.
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: But even like your treatment people, you know what I mean?
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: Like the guys that you see that, Yeah.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: Because you got your guy, Like there's that one guy
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: in the building was like, this is my dude I'm.
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: Working with, Like you know all that you're scrambling to
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: figure that stuff out. And yeah, there's there's a lot
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: of differences here and there, but I'd say that was
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: probably the biggest effect. It's just trying to figure out
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: the logistics of your schedule throughout the week.
• 15:14
  Speaker 7: Yeah, how close are you with the uh like getting
• 15:18
  Speaker 7: cause your family's with the your the Shanahan family and
• 15:22
  Speaker 7: your family, you guys.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: Are like tight right?
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Is that are you?
• 15:25
  Speaker 7: Are you going there feeling kind of like that interpersonal
• 15:28
  Speaker 7: relationship with Coachanahan or is it kind of like our
• 15:31
  Speaker 7: families are type of you know, it's.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's still different for us.
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: I think when you get traded, it's like you really
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: understand the family, friend or whatever, how much of a
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: business it is, and you also understand that these guys
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: just traded a lot for you, So you know, there's
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: there's no like, hey, what's up man? Good, It's like
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: all right, dude, like I it's time, like I gotta
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: I gotta prove you right, and we got a roll
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: because you know, I mean, my my dad played for
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: played for Mike Shanahan for a long time, and they're
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: really close, you know, really close, and Kyle grew up
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: in that locker room. Kyle grew up one of those games,
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: the Niners games when Mike was there and the Broncos games.
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: I'd only met Kyle after a game when we when
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: we played them, though I didn't, I wasn't like, you know,
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: I talked.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: To Kyle all the time. That wasn't the case at all.
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: And I think, you know, we have a lot of
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: similarities in a lot of ways, in the sense that
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: you know, your your dad's kind of grew up. You know,
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: my dad had three Super Bowl rings and growing up
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: in Denver, you know, he was a big deal. And
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: you know, I kind of always you know, I ended
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: up making a name for myself, but just growing up,
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: you're in his shadow. And I thought it was the
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: best thing ever. I mean, me and my pops are
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: like that, and it was. It was amazing. But you know,
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: I think Kyle probably feels out a little bit too,
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: and so it's all business though, And I love Kyle
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: and I and we you know, we got a good relationship,
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: but I want to win so bad man, and I
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: know he does too, So it's it's definitely to the
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: script and business.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: You guys are so close this year, dude, When when
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: you got Jimmy and g telling you what to do
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: in the field and a few weeks later he's out,
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: Like what was the vibe in the locker room? Because
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: it seems like it was truly a next man up mentality,
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: That's what it seemed from me outside looking in. But
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: do you have a guy who's mister irrelevant, Like you
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: really have no idea what he's gonna put on the field.
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: You had no chance to see him in camp or
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: really in preseason games or anything. So like what was
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: your thought process? And like what was the vibe of
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: the boys like the next day?
• 17:21
  Speaker 5: And there was a lot of mixed emotions, uh, and
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: a lot of unknowns. But like I said, I mean
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: that you got the number one defense and you have
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: a lot of weapons, and so I don't I don't.
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: I really don't believe anyone ever blinked. I think it was, hey,
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: we're gonna have to step up, like there's you know,
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: and I don't know what that means because I never
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: understood that because it's like, well, what were you doing before?
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: Like you know, but like you know what I mean,
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: just kind of you know, lock in, no, no bullshit, nothing,
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: and uh but I didn't feel like anybody blinked. And
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: I and to hear the defense talk about Brock because
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: those are the guys going against them in scout team
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: and during training camp they were huge fans. They're like,
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: oh no, he can ball, and so we're like, all right,
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: let's let's see what happens. And he went in the
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: middle of Miami game, he won, and and then you know,
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: it's kind of history from there. But now it was
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: impressive what he did. I'll be honest with you, how
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: do you really impress if the wash room from a
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: close spectrum.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: How do you feel sitting in this room right now
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: and not getting ready for the Super Bowl? No, you
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: were so close.
• 18:19
  Speaker 8: It hurts, man, It hurts. It's uh yeah, it hurts.
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it hurts man. But is your dad like the
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: guy from what was the movie with Booby Miles right
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: and night lights? So he's like, you see that he
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: got one of those, got one of those, gets you
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: one of those? That is your dad kind of put
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: in your face a little bit, or he's letting a ride.
• 18:38
  Speaker 8: I've never seen my dad's rings. He's the couldn't be you.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Got to drive home drug after a game?
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he toss out the window. Your stuff going through
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: the grass. No fucking kicks out the window. Christians all
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: sat on the field as dad walks up, puts it
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: on his finger.
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: By the way, they asked me the other day, like,
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: what's one of the best movie scenes of all time?
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: That was like in my top.
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: Three when he's on his knees when he hugs his
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: dad at the end there when others I mean.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: Emotional right now, that is tough. Was the lamp scene?
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: Anony throws the lamp on the ground.
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: I dropped it. He's like, can't hold the lamp, can't
• 19:13
  Speaker 7: hold on the football.
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: I can hold on the football. Get the hell out
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: of here. I got a funny story about that. Actually,
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: dug tasers are can you old?

• 21:42
  Speaker 8: It's like not man, no, no, you're just you're thinking
• 21:44
  Speaker 8: of his character.
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: So I would actually think is like an asshole who
• 21:49
  Speaker 7: I wouldn't like before meeting him. Is a Jeoffrey from
• 21:52
  Speaker 7: Game of Thrones. I think I really have an issue.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: I gotta watch that show. Yeah, the worst person we
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: will step away from act. That's what I heard. He
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: quit acting. What a great actor. That has got to
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: be an act.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: Shall we talk about the NFC Championship?
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: We don't have to.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: I think we got it.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: Don't worry about it.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: I think we got to touch on it.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: Don't worry about it, dude, we got to touch We
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: got to touch on it. Figure, did brock perty fake
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: that injury? I'm just kidding. I mean it was pretty tough.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: He he tore his UCL I mean he legitimately couldn't throw.
• 22:31
  Speaker 8: And our only hope for you know, we still had hope.
• 22:35
  Speaker 8: Josh came in and we we tie it up. We're
• 22:37
  Speaker 8: ready to roll.
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: And then when Josh went down, it's like, you know,
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: it's panic mode, but you never know. Defense picked six
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: special teams touchdown, you know what's gonna happen.
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: But I don't know if they knew.
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: How hurt Brock was, so just having Brock out there,
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: there was still the threat of like, oh, maybe maybe
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: they shot him up and he's good to go, like
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: who knows, right, And he threw a couple of screen passes,
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: but I mean that's a serios injuries, just yeah, serious
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: injury for him to come back in the game and
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: you know, try to at least throw dog.
• 23:06
  Speaker 9: Yeah no, uh no, he didn't fake it.
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: Because I didn't get to see the game. But you
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: were saying they were just like you were just running
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: the ball after at.
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: Least, like, yeah, they might not know what's going on,
• 23:15
  Speaker 7: but after a few plays, you're gonna realize, like, let's
• 23:17
  Speaker 7: just stack the box until they do throw and show
• 23:19
  Speaker 7: that they can try and go up top. So after that,
• 23:22
  Speaker 7: like as you guys are doing running playfter running platter,
• 23:24
  Speaker 7: running patter, running pla after fucking running play going into
• 23:27
  Speaker 7: the fourth quarter, and then it's not like nobody's like
• 23:30
  Speaker 7: the clock's not stopping.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: You guys are just running the football.
• 23:33
  Speaker 7: I'm sitting there, like, will at least try to fucking
• 23:37
  Speaker 7: at least try to throw the fall like you throw
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: it into the fucking stands.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: I'm like, hell yeah, let it fucking rip, brother.
• 23:41
  Speaker 8: It was one of the worst.
• 23:44
  Speaker 7: Why continue to just run the ball?
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Is there a sense of frustration?
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: Like like him and Debo and draw up on the
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: saddle like.
• 23:52
  Speaker 7: Hey, hey, George, I'm about to just say, look at me,
• 23:55
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna throw this ball to you.
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, in theory, like that's that sounds really good. I
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: just I just feel like I couldn't call play like
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: I I know the running back position and in some
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: Z plays, but like calling a play and knowing what
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: people are.
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: Doing, you could draw it up all you want.
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: We drew up that that double reverse, and you know
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: it was the one time I think they go to
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: shell now and then I you know, Kittle's double covered
• 24:16
  Speaker 5: and he's our only guy, and so I just I
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: threw it's absolutely nobody.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: But I love that you just let it rip it
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: throw the football.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:25
  Speaker 5: I almost got grounding, which would have been like, oh yeah,
• 24:27
  Speaker 5: never mind, We're not throwing the football. But but no,
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: it's uh, I think at that point, man, you're you're
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: hoping for you know, we did a couple of double
• 24:35
  Speaker 5: reverses and we were still running the ball efficiently. It's
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: not like we were zero yards. And I don't know,
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: I wish I'm not a coach. I I don't know
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: what I would have done. I don't think I've ever
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: seen that. The only time I've ever seen no quarterbacks
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: to be able to play was the Broncos COVID Deal.
• 24:54
  Speaker 8: Peace squad receiver they got to be by like forty five.
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that was a tough That was a tough though,
• 24:58
  Speaker 5: let alone and you know, not having a quarterback for
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: two and a half in the NFC Championship. But I'm
• 25:03
  Speaker 5: you know, and they they're the ones that hurt them.
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: So it's not like, you know, you can't say it's
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: not fair. You know, they play good ball, it's a
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: good team.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: But yeah, what a tough fucking spot to be in.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: And I get it.
• 25:13
  Speaker 7: It's like in theory that sounds nice and it's like,
• 25:16
  Speaker 7: I know, like I'm saying then kind of you're trying
• 25:19
  Speaker 7: to get you to speak on something where it's like
• 25:21
  Speaker 7: I mean, I'm not you're not a coach, you're not
• 25:23
  Speaker 7: doing all that stuff. You're not trying to draw it up.
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: But I'm just thinking, NFC Championship, there's truly nothing to
• 25:27
  Speaker 7: fucking lose at what at all, whatsoever. So it's like
• 25:31
  Speaker 7: you're just out there, Hey, I'm gonna fucking go five
• 25:32
  Speaker 7: yards and go out just to simplify for somebody trying
• 25:34
  Speaker 7: to throw the rock like Kyle be A be a quarterback,
• 25:37
  Speaker 7: so Christian could maybe still run the football.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: But that's what I'm still there thinking.
• 25:41
  Speaker 7: I'm like, man, at least at least show that you
• 25:44
  Speaker 7: might just throw the ball at some point.
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: That's what I was saying. You know, I'm pissed off
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: you on TV. I bet on you guys. I'm fucking
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: I'm pissed off. If there wasn't gonna be a quarterback,
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: who do you think it would be have to step in? Ye, man,
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: taking away the fact that it's the NFC Championship, that'd
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: be cool, Like if you're in the middle of six.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: In the back of my mind, I won't lie.
• 26:06
  Speaker 5: I'm like, look, dude, if I get the ball, I'm
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: ripping it like yeah, yeah, brother.
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: They call like some you know whatever the top off,
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: we shouldn't have done.
• 26:15
  Speaker 7: Yeah, but if it's in the middle of the season,
• 26:18
  Speaker 7: you you do, like you run the ball, you get
• 26:19
  Speaker 7: out of the game, and it's like, well, fuck, we
• 26:21
  Speaker 7: didn't have a quarterback. But it's like the game before
• 26:24
  Speaker 7: the Super Bowl.
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but you guys are thinking about the negative, Like
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: imagine if you were the play quarterback and was throwing
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: dimes all of a sudden.
• 26:31
  Speaker 8: Yeah or yeah, I don't know.
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: All that quarterback stuff's tough, Like forget throwing the ball,
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: like calling the play in the huddle, like they're still
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: giving me ship because I called one play on the wristband.
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: It was a double reverse pass and like the whole game,
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: it was so loud, and so the quarterbacks in there
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: just screaming, like we had to have a guy taking
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: a knee in the middle so.
• 26:50
  Speaker 8: We could shorten up the circle just sweetly.
• 26:53
  Speaker 5: Bro and uh, and so I'm like, damn, I gotta
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: yell this play call. I mean, while the play calls,
• 26:59
  Speaker 5: it's that that long and uh, I'm screaming the play
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: and George is like, dude, like.
• 27:06
  Speaker 8: It was the one time it was quiet.
• 27:08
  Speaker 5: So like the whole defense is like that we can
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: hear you like, I'm like, oh shit, so quiet my
• 27:14
  Speaker 5: voice down for a little bit.
• 27:15
  Speaker 8: But now calling the play in the huddle is more.
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: Difficult than people's make What about turbo package? Why not
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: go into your You guys have like some on the
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: ball stuff. You have like one one word and that's
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: what you're gonna call and that's it.
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we yeah, we have that. We but I don't know.
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: I don't know the quarterback trbo package. Juice might but
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: there you go, put juice in. There's so many like
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: there's so many what ifs, man, and like you should
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: have done It's like, but I don't know.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: It just it just sucked absolutely, I mean from the
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: perspective opening wounds and then joking way and I know
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: you're allowed to carry three quarterbacks, like I meant.
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: I had a comment earlier this week in the media
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: where I was like, I wish they changed that rule
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: and people are like, well, you can change you can
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: carry three quarterbacks.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I know that.
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: I just mean, you have fifty three guys active, but
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: only how many suit up forty forty.
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: Eight forty six shoot up forty eight can suit up now,
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: but you have to but you have to suit up
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: an extra offensive lineman. Almighty first seven. My whole point
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: I was like, I know that.
• 28:13
  Speaker 5: I just wish one of those extra active players could
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: be a third quarterback because nobody wants to watch that.
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: That's not no like, it's it sucks for us, it
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: sucks for fans, it sucks for everything.
• 28:22
  Speaker 8: You're like, dude, this is there's so you know, people's lives.
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: It's and look I'm bitter and then the wounds are
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: still fresh and I'm pissed off, and I get it.
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: I'll get over it. But that was just my initial
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: angry thoughts post game.
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: Dude, the hockey's got a rule, not necessarily a rule,
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: but there are literally guys in the stands that are goalies,
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: and they're like, like, there's two goalies that shoot up.
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: If both those goalies get hurt, that guy will literally
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: go down the locker room, suit up and go play goalie.
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: That while yeah, that would.
• 28:49
  Speaker 7: Be nice if you were able to do that, because
• 28:51
  Speaker 7: it does like and I know we're sitting here talking like,
• 28:52
  Speaker 7: oh we should have could It's like this, the chances
• 28:55
  Speaker 7: are nine nine percent chance you're still.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Going to lose the game.
• 28:57
  Speaker 7: Whoa well, I mean the way you was getting out
• 29:00
  Speaker 7: of hand, it's just like they had.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: A quarter left to make something happen.
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what you're saying, you're not saying even with Brock.
• 29:07
  Speaker 7: And you're saying, like, oh, if you was, if he
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: would have acted as the quarterback into the bar, and
• 29:11
  Speaker 7: that means they would have won the game. It's like,
• 29:12
  Speaker 7: you know, you're kind of just like, well, everyone knows
• 29:15
  Speaker 7: it's pretty much gonna be over with.
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I thought you were saying if Brock played
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: the entire game, Oh no, no, no, no, okay, just
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: when that game you really think so, you really think so?
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: You no, there there Those are both the two best
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: put together teams in the NFL. They were really they
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: were good.
• 29:38
  Speaker 7: Man.
• 29:38
  Speaker 8: I thought they're a good team.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: You go into every game confident, and that's one thing
• 29:43
  Speaker 5: about Kyle, like he gets you to get you know,
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: with his game plans and stuff. You're like, oh, damn,
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: I'm excited for this game, you know, and and who
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: knows what would have happened. I just think, man, like
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: I just wish it didn't go that way.
• 29:57
  Speaker 7: Yeah, that is especially in that uh the first drive
• 30:02
  Speaker 7: to like they got that fourth down play and obviously
• 30:06
  Speaker 7: you guys are still in it.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: So it's just like nobody's want to getting you have
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: that catch.
• 30:09
  Speaker 5: Different game, it's a different game. How about the punt.
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: The punt too, they're rough in the punter. Different game.
• 30:17
  Speaker 9: Who knows the game?
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: I'm talking on the couch. I know, I'm talking on
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: a couch. Yeah, but you're wearing that heart on that
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: sleeve right now, which is awesome. Forty nine We're gonna
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: absolutely love it. You had a comment. I think you're
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: on an NFL network media row. It might have been yesterday,
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: So you wish you hope both teams loose. Obviously that's
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: not gonna happen. Who do you not hope? But who
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: do you think? Actually, yeah, imagine there's a tie for
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: Super Bowl. That can't happen, right, No, it can't happen. No, No,
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: there's no way, there's no ties, there's no ties. Who
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: do you think is going to win this game? Because
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: we've been this has been like obviously the conversation for everybody,
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: especially here in this house. Everyone's talking over and over about.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: How by the time this comes out, it's like it'll
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: be done.
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: It'll be done. Who you think we'll clip it real quick.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: You set it out today.
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know, man, I don't know.
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: I think I don't know.
• 31:12
  Speaker 5: It's so hard for me to like say one or
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: the other, you know, because I'm so pissed off.
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 31:17
  Speaker 5: It's like, so you think the Eagles, No, not necessarily,
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: not necessarily, I mean tough. They're a stacked team that
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: got you know, so many weapons on offense, and and
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: and that pass rush is serious. It's tough to bet
• 31:31
  Speaker 5: against Pat Mahomes ever, you know, in a game.
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: So, I don't know.
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: I hope it's a good game, though, I don't know
• 31:37
  Speaker 8: if I watch, but I hope it's a good game.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: You think you're gonna watch the super It hurts that
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: bad hurts. It hurts. Brother. I can't. I can't imagine.
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: I mean I can't. I was in the Answer Championship once.
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: But that's gotta be fucking tough, you know exactly he's feeling. Yeah,
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: But like, I mean, we lost made it even tougher
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: because there's there is truly a like an argument for
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: what if Yeah, you know.
• 32:04
  Speaker 5: What I'm saying, if we got beat, I'd be like,
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: you know what, man, prop and and look you're gonna
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: clip that. By the way, Philly fans hate hate me
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: right now for the whole I hope both team anyway,
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: but dude.
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: It's Philly. They're literally that's what they do.
• 32:19
  Speaker 5: So but but like I you know, I'm not saying
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: we would have won. I am saying, you know, we'd
• 32:25
  Speaker 5: have had a chance and that would have been you know,
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: would have won.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: But no, like that we would.
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: Have got it.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: It's actually on Twitter right now.
• 32:38
  Speaker 5: No, But I just think having a chance is important
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: in the NFL football.
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think Philly is gonna.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: Win, So I do.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: I think that's yeah, that's what I think Philly's gonna
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: win there. And then you had a fantastic point earlier
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: this week where that the way the Chiefs win is
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: off scripted place.
• 32:57
  Speaker 7: Yeah, that's I feel because I just feel like Philly
• 33:00
  Speaker 7: can line up and beat you eat, you know, both
• 33:02
  Speaker 7: ways on the ground to the air, which was tough,
• 33:04
  Speaker 7: which was what was shitty to watch with you guys.
• 33:06
  Speaker 7: You guys have such a tough defense, like seeing them
• 33:08
  Speaker 7: march down and like run the balls like fuck man.
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but this is the other thing about our team,
• 33:12
  Speaker 5: Like I just feel like we've been down in the
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: first half in multiple games this year where it was
• 33:18
  Speaker 5: looking like that, but our second half adjustments on defense,
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: like Demico Ryans had these dialed in the second half,
• 33:25
  Speaker 5: and I just feel like that was where we thrived.
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: Was that second half, that third and fourth quarter where
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: you know, we made a lot of way in that
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: second half.
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: So who knows, But you, guys have a lot of
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: guys in free agency this year.
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: We have some really important guys in free agency, but no,
• 33:42
  Speaker 5: we get a lot of guys back.
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, who are the guys that are in free agency?
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna miss some of them, but I know, like
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: off the top of my head, mcglinche il right tackled
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: Jimmy Ward. I'm a big fan of Jimmy Ward's stud
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: I'm not sure receiver who.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: Is up and who's not.
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: I don't I'm not still not familiar with how old
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: everyone is, so I don't know, like who's in the
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: free agent market. Those are the ones that jumped off
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: the right of way, and I think d line Charles
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: uh uh center mayback.
• 34:16
  Speaker 9: D line dude.
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: So McGlinchey is one of those dudes on the offensive
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: line that I feel like it's way more hate than
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: he deserves. I feel like everyone's always like trashing him,
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: but I feel like he's a pretty solid tackle. Yeah,
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: he's really good, Harry slid Yeah, I mean thirty tough.
• 34:31
  Speaker 5: Is you play on the opposite side of Trent Williams
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: your whole career, it's like, or not your whole career,
• 34:36
  Speaker 5: but like anytime.
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: You put the opposide of Trent Williams, Yeah, like that's tough.
• 34:41
  Speaker 9: Yeah, tough to like you're not you know what I mean?
• 34:43
  Speaker 8: Yeah, No, Mike's been nothing, but he's been great.
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: Can you imagine being a part of a franchise that
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: had Joe Staley for eleven years and then he leaves
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: and then you actually have an upgrade? I tackle that's
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: like the most wild ship. His tackle is like one
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: of those positions like there's so much a man and
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: there's hardly any supply. Yeah, one hundred percent. It's crazy.
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: I just think go line in general.
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: Now you can get a solid old lineman at any
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: of the five positions, but especially left tackle.
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: That's so hard to find. Brother, and he does. He has.
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: Trent has no sign of slowing down at all. He
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: looks he got better with the commander is now off
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: taking the year off, which I feel like, never happens, dude, Yeah,
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: never happened.
• 35:27
  Speaker 5: Sud Man, he's the free He's the freakiest player I've
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: ever seen in my life in person. And I don't
• 35:32
  Speaker 5: even know if it's close, like just practicing and like
• 35:35
  Speaker 5: it's stupid.
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: Does he practice hard?
• 35:38
  Speaker 8: He doesn't practice Wednesdays.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: He does. Really, he does what he has to do. Yeah,
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: you could you get attest to that. Yeah, he does what.
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: He'll be on the side, but he's one of those
• 35:48
  Speaker 5: guys that you can do that.
• 35:49
  Speaker 8: Yeah, he's he's one of those guys that can Yeah.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say that conversation with the lunch stable.
• 35:54
  Speaker 7: Genuine as hell, innocent as hell, Like I really am

  Speaker 5: the season started, so my freshman year it was it's

  Speaker 5: the whole same running back room as my next year,
• 38:56
  Speaker 5: so and I was I didn't start my freshman year.
• 38:59
  Speaker 5: I was kind of a you know, third down utility guy,
• 39:02
  Speaker 5: part return, kick return stuff like that. My second year,
• 39:05
  Speaker 5: I got the NOD and our first game we loose
• 39:09
  Speaker 5: to Northwestern and I had to fumble in the game,
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: and I just remember like, like, this is gonna be
• 39:14
  Speaker 5: an uphill battle for me. That was our first game.
• 39:17
  Speaker 5: So we're ohen one lost to unranked Northwestern at Northwestern
• 39:22
  Speaker 5: and you just don't know what's gonna happen in your territory.
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: So it was yeah, and then it just started going
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: and going and going. I don't think it hit me
• 39:29
  Speaker 5: till the end of the year, but that was fun.
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: It's a fun team to play.
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: If you take Stanford out of it, what other what
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: college would you want to go to but the number
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: one college? Or what I would have Let's do both.
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: Where would you Where would you have gone if it
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: wasn't Stanford? And then if you had a choice of
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: any school besides Stanford, where where would you have gone?
• 39:46
  Speaker 8: I probably would have gone to Oregon.
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: That was like in the Michael James d Anthony Thomas
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: kind of era, and that kind of fit my style
• 39:56
  Speaker 5: just in high school, like same offense, the whole nine track,
• 40:00
  Speaker 5: all that stuff. But then, uh, I remember my dad
• 40:03
  Speaker 5: sat me down and he went over all the academic
• 40:05
  Speaker 5: stuff and I understood that, but he was like, if
• 40:07
  Speaker 5: you want to play in the NFL and like play
• 40:09
  Speaker 5: big dog football, you got to run in a pro
• 40:11
  Speaker 5: style offense. It is what it is because no one's
• 40:13
  Speaker 5: gonna think that you can run in a pro style offense.
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: And I was like, dang, you're right, like and he
• 40:19
  Speaker 5: was right, like I needed to run power, I needed
• 40:22
  Speaker 5: to run inside zone.
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: I need you were going to go to Organ. I
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: wasn't going to go to Oregon.
• 40:25
  Speaker 5: But I was debating between like Stanford, Oregon, Washington, and
• 40:28
  Speaker 5: then my older brother played at duke, so I was
• 40:31
  Speaker 5: highly considering going to play with you know, play a
• 40:33
  Speaker 5: duke with him too. So those were like the four
• 40:35
  Speaker 5: where I was pretty close to going to Yeah, how.
• 40:39
  Speaker 7: Pivotal was it for you to have your old man
• 40:41
  Speaker 7: as like a mentor for you?
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: It was growing up?
• 40:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah, the best like legit like is it growing up?
• 40:48
  Speaker 7: Was it one year out the other? And then it
• 40:49
  Speaker 7: got a little bit more you took more of his
• 40:51
  Speaker 7: of his advice, like when you got closer to college
• 40:54
  Speaker 7: or how was that? How was that relationship with him
• 40:56
  Speaker 7: growing up?
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: We?
• 40:57
  Speaker 5: Uh, so I have three brothers and I'm I'm number two,
• 41:00
  Speaker 5: and we all we all played football and all, you know,
• 41:04
  Speaker 5: played a bunch of different sports. But it was such
• 41:09
  Speaker 5: an advantage, man Like, we could go to him with
• 41:10
  Speaker 5: anything and he was never like, hey, you gotta.
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: He was tough. Man.
• 41:14
  Speaker 8: We had a time. It was we grew up great.
• 41:16
  Speaker 5: We you know, by any means where the farthest things
• 41:19
  Speaker 5: from spoiled. And it was hard at times, but we
• 41:23
  Speaker 5: had so much fun, man Like, I did everything with
• 41:25
  Speaker 5: my brothers and my older brother kicked my ass every
• 41:28
  Speaker 5: single day and everything we did, and it was it
• 41:30
  Speaker 5: was so good for me and and having my dad,
• 41:34
  Speaker 5: you know, obviously as an outlet at any time we wanted.
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: Was was great.
• 41:39
  Speaker 5: I think not just for like, hey man, you know,
• 41:41
  Speaker 5: if you're running a route and under fifteen yards you
• 41:43
  Speaker 5: should never take more than three steps when you break,
• 41:46
  Speaker 5: and like different things like that, and how to cut
• 41:48
  Speaker 5: and how to plan and how to do this and that.
• 41:50
  Speaker 5: It was more like the emotional side of it and
• 41:53
  Speaker 5: how to handle your emotions when things happen. Because we
• 41:56
  Speaker 5: were all we were always really competitive. We never needed
• 41:59
  Speaker 5: like a hey man, you gotta try harder. It was
• 42:01
  Speaker 5: always really important to us. So that was never like
• 42:05
  Speaker 5: he didn't you know. He was big on effort and
• 42:07
  Speaker 5: grades and all these things. But I think like how
• 42:09
  Speaker 5: to handle your business and how to you know, deal
• 42:13
  Speaker 5: with emotions when you're on the field was important for
• 42:16
  Speaker 5: me to learn at a young age because if I
• 42:17
  Speaker 5: didn't have him, I don't know, you know, I don't
• 42:19
  Speaker 5: know what would have happened.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: I gotta follow up.
• 42:24
  Speaker 7: You mentioned it being like it was hard at times,
• 42:27
  Speaker 7: Like what were the hard times? And when I say hard,
• 42:31
  Speaker 7: how the old man was tough on you? It's like
• 42:32
  Speaker 7: hard as a you know, when you're a kid like
• 42:34
  Speaker 7: it was. Now it's not hard.
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it.
• 42:39
  Speaker 5: Look, we would get grounded for real if you got
• 42:41
  Speaker 5: jersey tackle like seven eight years old. If you got
• 42:44
  Speaker 5: jersey when you wear the big jerseys, Yeah, you get
• 42:46
  Speaker 5: grounded if you get jersey.
• 42:47
  Speaker 9: Oh really.
• 42:49
  Speaker 5: Your ground depot tape that double sided tape. I'm eight
• 42:54
  Speaker 5: and double side tape my pads. This is you know
• 42:56
  Speaker 5: they didn't have the velcrobe and double side tape my pads.
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: I never got.
• 43:00
  Speaker 8: I was running through everybody, no jersey tackles ever.
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: You know, he would cut like certain slits in the
• 43:06
  Speaker 5: pant to give you like more neeflection, like back in
• 43:09
  Speaker 5: the day at eight years old, doing like dynamic warm ups.
• 43:12
  Speaker 8: Dude, no SODA's bedtime seven thirty.
• 43:15
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Like he would take they would take our phone
• 43:17
  Speaker 5: until I left for high school at like a time.
• 43:19
  Speaker 8: He's gonna hate me for saying all this, but.
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: It works if you.
• 43:23
  Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know if he's gonna listen to it,
• 43:25
  Speaker 5: but but yeah, like that's was like we you know,
• 43:27
  Speaker 5: when diet was always important, sleep was always when now
• 43:30
  Speaker 5: we were kids, man, like we could go over to
• 43:31
  Speaker 5: the friend's house.
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: It wasn't like a you know, like anything like that.
• 43:34
  Speaker 5: But when it came to sports into school, it was, hey,
• 43:39
  Speaker 5: if you want to be here, here are the things
• 43:42
  Speaker 5: that you need to do. Like like Friday in my
• 43:45
  Speaker 5: off periods, like he would come pick me up. I
• 43:48
  Speaker 5: was in high school. We go, you know, like middle
• 43:52
  Speaker 5: of the day, getting Ivy. What Oh yeah, we're getting
• 43:56
  Speaker 5: We're getting just saline Ivy's game day because I remember
• 43:59
  Speaker 5: one game I cramped against Grandview High School, like my
• 44:03
  Speaker 5: sophomore year, first game in the fourth quarter. Calf cramps,
• 44:06

• 44:21
  Speaker 5: but I remember it. It's pretty heavy on legs, don't
• 44:24
  Speaker 5: you think, like you know, like you're kind of right
• 44:28
  Speaker 5: war sweats got in trouble then this is like, look, dude,
• 44:31
  Speaker 5: you gotta be comfy during the day. You gotta be relaxed,
• 44:33
  Speaker 5: Like this is how you act on a game day,
• 44:35
  Speaker 5: Like this is what you do, like all that pep
• 44:37
  Speaker 5: rally shit, like don't be yelling, don't be loosing your
• 44:39
  Speaker 5: voice when you're out in the sun. If you squint,
• 44:42
  Speaker 5: your wasting energy, like make sure you have like I'm talking,
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: and I didn't realize. So like people who like know
• 44:48
  Speaker 5: me now and they see how you know, taking how
• 44:51
  Speaker 5: I take care of my body and like the warm
• 44:53

• 44:58
  Speaker 5: been taught to a for the longest time, Like hey,
• 45:01
  Speaker 5: this is and that's what he did. And he was
• 45:04
  Speaker 5: over the top, Like there's guys in his team were
• 45:06
  Speaker 5: like what the hell is this guy?
• 45:07
  Speaker 3: This guy's nuts.
• 45:08
  Speaker 5: But you know, I mean I always felt like I
• 45:11
  Speaker 5: had a chimp on my shoulder and people were gonna
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: count me out, and so I was gonna do everything.
• 45:14
  Speaker 8: He goed away in at like the washing. I mean
• 45:17
  Speaker 8: everybody did this.
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: But like I go on my Washington visit, I think
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: I was like one eight I had to be one
• 45:23
  Speaker 5: eighty two or something like that's how much I weighed.
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: And he put like we put like little ten ten
• 45:29
  Speaker 5: pounds like slit squares in my shoes or in my
• 45:33
  Speaker 5: socks in case they made me take my shoes off,
• 45:36
  Speaker 5: so that if you take your shoes off, you know
• 45:38
  Speaker 5: obviously they're still in your socks. And I ended up
• 45:41
  Speaker 5: weighing like one ninety eight. I had like a thick
• 45:44
  Speaker 5: pair of puffy jeans on, like the whole nine. Every
• 45:47
  Speaker 5: trick in the brother you could think of. No to
• 45:51
  Speaker 5: the University of University of Washington.
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: So your daddy your going pro the minute you came
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: out of the way.
• 45:57
  Speaker 5: When when the coaches, when the college coach would come
• 46:00
  Speaker 5: to my high school, and like I was never small,
• 46:04
  Speaker 5: so to say, but I was always people would say
• 46:06
  Speaker 5: I'm small, Like for you know, I wasn't two thirty.
• 46:10
  Speaker 5: But he's like when the coaches come, like you got
• 46:14
  Speaker 5: to go knock out like twenty five in the bathroom.
• 46:16
  Speaker 5: Like so I would be doing push ups, bathroom floor
• 46:18
  Speaker 5: curls and with my backpack before like you know, some
• 46:22
  Speaker 5: QC from you know, Tennessee would come by. It has
• 46:26
  Speaker 5: no he's not gonna offer me at all anyway, but
• 46:29
  Speaker 5: my veins are popping out.
• 46:30
  Speaker 9: I'm like, coach, nice to meet. You're like, yeah, it was.
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: Like the whole nine. Yeah, hilarious, whole nine.
• 46:37
  Speaker 7: That makes sense because you were dressed you were dressed
• 46:40
  Speaker 7: up professionally when you visited Washington for your draft visit.
• 46:44
  Speaker 7: Because he was sitting in the special team's room with
• 46:46
  Speaker 7: the special teams coordinator.
• 46:48
  Speaker 8: Because remember we met that guy. I remember came in
• 46:50

  Speaker 3: I should I did. I did every visit I took.
• 46:58
  Speaker 5: I was like, I thought that's what people did it, Like,
• 47:01
  Speaker 5: that's why I did that.
• 47:01
  Speaker 8: If I knew, like, you know, that guy's kind of going.
• 47:03
  Speaker 5: Overboard, I probably would have, you know, maybe just not
• 47:07
  Speaker 5: to tie, you know, maybe not to tie, maybe just
• 47:09
  Speaker 5: the shirt.
• 47:10
  Speaker 7: It's just the fact that he's in the special teams
• 47:11
  Speaker 7: coordinator's office, like he's obviously gonna be a top running back.
• 47:15
  Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, and he's in there talking teams the coordinator.

• 48:30
  Speaker 5: I always knew there was like another level and I'd

• 48:48
  Speaker 5: me like the you know, the wrong they spelled my
• 48:50
  Speaker 5: name wrong on the jersey, and I just like stuff
• 48:52
  Speaker 5: like that mattered to me. And I just used to
• 48:54
  Speaker 5: piss me off so much, and it always like stuck
• 48:57
  Speaker 5: with me, and uh, they would hype up these other backs,
• 49:01
  Speaker 5: like these other guys you know, like so much, and
• 49:04
  Speaker 5: that was like the poster of their whole thing.
• 49:06

• 49:13
  Speaker 5: He's my guy and I love him and he h
• 49:16
  Speaker 5: And by the way, at the time, looking back, he
• 49:18
  Speaker 5: probably he probably had.
• 49:19
  Speaker 9: The edge on me, which is tough to admit. Yeah,
• 49:22
  Speaker 9: it was Michelle.
• 49:25
  Speaker 5: Ran ten seven in the eighth grade, and you would
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: have thought this guy, I mean, he was an impressive
• 49:30
  Speaker 5: he played varsity as an eighth grader, and I just
• 49:33
  Speaker 5: remember like he was the gold standard in the middle
• 49:35
  Speaker 5: and talking, I'm talking about middle.
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: School football right now. I don't but you see you
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: playing eighth grade seriously, fat, how do you play varsity

  Speaker 9: American Heritage High School.
• 49:45
  Speaker 5: I and all his highlight tapes, like he didn't even
• 49:46
  Speaker 5: know this, by the way, like but now he does.
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 49:49
  Speaker 5: I used to like like I don't know what the
• 49:52
  Speaker 5: rule was in Florida, but in in Fort Lauderder, I
• 49:55
  Speaker 5: guess like they let him play varsity. I mean he
• 49:58
  Speaker 5: was bawling five in high school, so he was, yeah,
• 50:02
  Speaker 5: he was, he was, you know, and then did the
• 50:05
  Speaker 5: same thing, went to the like army all American games.
• 50:07
  Speaker 8: Same and it's all the backs that are in the league.
• 50:09
  Speaker 5: So like, looking back, I should have been like, hey man,
• 50:11
  Speaker 5: you're in the right class, like these are good, you know,
• 50:13
  Speaker 5: good backs, but I was. It was still like I
• 50:17
  Speaker 5: always had to prove myself everywhere I've been, and you know,
• 50:20
  Speaker 5: I mean, it is what it is. I feel like
• 50:22
  Speaker 5: that's everyone's story. It's not like just me. I feel,
• 50:25
  Speaker 5: you know more, I talk to people more like yeah, same,
• 50:28
  Speaker 5: you know, but.
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: We all make up some ine me and or every.
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, everybody has their own.
• 50:34
  Speaker 8: Story absolutely like they I don't.
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: Know, I got like three guys in my head right now.
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: It's like I remember I remember looking at dudes being
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: like these guys fucking don't even know. Yeah, they have
• 50:43
  Speaker 3: no idea what's about.
• 50:44
  Speaker 5: To come combine e er y dude, I'll never forget it.
• 50:49
  Speaker 5: And I didn't even realize it either. I didn't look
• 50:51
  Speaker 5: at like the way they spelled my name, so I
• 50:53
  Speaker 5: did the whole thing. My buddies are hitting me up, like, dude,
• 50:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah damn though they disrespected you.
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, how does that make you feel? You know what
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: it's like?
• 51:09
  Speaker 5: Because because I'm I get like salty like that, I
• 51:13
  Speaker 5: I notice it more like I'm sure most people who
• 51:16
  Speaker 5: aren't bitter like me, they're probably like, yeah, whatever, like
• 51:19
  Speaker 5: who cares, you know, and they're fine, it doesn't matter.
• 51:21
  Speaker 5: But because I like, you know what I mean, I
• 51:23
  Speaker 5: don't know, Like you said, you all you always create
• 51:25
  Speaker 5: an enemy, and I think that's what keeps guys going
• 51:27
  Speaker 5: Like I it's it's you. You have to keep that chip.
• 51:30
  Speaker 5: Otherwise it's it's just tough to find a purpose.
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: You're not You're not the minority. I feel like keeping
• 51:38
  Speaker 3: the chip, like, there's way more guys like that, and
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: most of the time that there are these successful guys
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: right that have that chip always that are like this,
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: people are out to get me and one one little
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: thing like spelling your last name wrong, Like this is
• 51:51
  Speaker 3: all I needed, Like this, this is the affirmation I
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: needed person to know. Yeah, you know that, like these
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: people are really truly out to get me.
• 51:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly, that's how you feel. You're like, yeah, you
• 52:00
  Speaker 5: to fail, yes, yeah.
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: And and honestly, if you really were able to zoom out,
• 52:05
  Speaker 3: no one's thinking about you.
• 52:06
  Speaker 5: Didn't care less, not one person, probably the marketing dude
• 52:09
  Speaker 5: who like couldn't even like he's just putting together the
• 52:11
  Speaker 5: like doing the jerseys in the back.
• 52:13
  Speaker 8: It's not like, yeah, the NFL is not again.
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: Roger Goodell, Roger Goodell called was like, fuck it up, dude,
• 52:18

• 52:22
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I know.
• 52:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's crazy, you know.
• 52:25
  Speaker 5: But and and sometimes it is like that, but you know,
• 52:28
  Speaker 5: there's real stuff that where you're like, man, somebody actually
• 52:31
  Speaker 5: might feel like that. But then you find the little
• 52:33
  Speaker 5: things that just kind of subconsciously confirm it. It's like
• 52:37
  Speaker 5: it's just keeping me alive right now, Like that's what's
• 52:39
  Speaker 5: that's what's waking me up.
• 52:40
  Speaker 3: You seem super fucking competitive. What's keeping you alive? Right now?
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: What's that game? That last game?
• 52:46
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, oh yeah, that'll that'll I think everybody kind
• 52:48
  Speaker 5: of feels that, you know, the whole Yeah, I mean,
• 52:51
  Speaker 5: that's there's a lot you know. It was a good
• 52:53
  Speaker 5: revival of the year of like, all right, let's go.
• 52:57
  Speaker 5: You know that's how I feel.
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: You hope to play against Carolina soon.
• 53:01
  Speaker 3: That's gonna be awesome, Dude. That was the best possible
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: as you could have had. They are do you guys
• 53:09
  Speaker 3: play the next year? I don't think we play next year? Know,
• 53:12
  Speaker 3: I know, we don't plan.
• 53:15
  Speaker 7: You know, you know they don't have any other question,
• 53:17
  Speaker 7: I know.
• 53:17
  Speaker 3: I well, I just want to ask real quickly, what's that?
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: Cool? Eight minutes? All right? Uh, Matt Rule? He is
• 53:26
  Speaker 3: now the head coach of Nebraska. What things do you have?
• 53:30
  Speaker 3: Like obviously his time in Carolina was up and down.
• 53:32
  Speaker 3: He got fired, But what do you think he's going
• 53:36
  Speaker 3: to make him successful or if he's even going to
• 53:38
  Speaker 3: be successful in Nebraska? Like, what what can I look
• 53:40
  Speaker 3: forward to?
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 53:40
  Speaker 9: What can we look forward to? Seriously?
• 53:42
  Speaker 3: The boys will play hard?
• 53:45
  Speaker 5: Like that's one thing with coach Rule, you know, you
• 53:48
  Speaker 5: buy into his his way, Like guys play hard, man,
• 53:53
  Speaker 5: from top to bottom. I mean, you know the deal
• 53:56
  Speaker 5: in the NFL, how tough it is to coach in
• 53:58
  Speaker 5: this league, and a lot of things have to go right.
• 54:00
  Speaker 5: I always said, like head coaching, quarterback, way too much credit,
• 54:03
  Speaker 5: way too much blame.
• 54:05
  Speaker 8: But no I have I have nothing but good things
• 54:07
  Speaker 8: to say about coach Rull.
• 54:08
  Speaker 5: He he got us going, man, he really from from
• 54:11
  Speaker 5: the first year he got there too, And and the
• 54:13
  Speaker 5: different things that he did and learned in his time,
• 54:16
  Speaker 5: and his ability to change the things that he thought
• 54:20
  Speaker 5: were wrong I thought was impressive too, Like openness to
• 54:23
  Speaker 5: talk to guys, being able to, you know, say hey,
• 54:26
  Speaker 5: that was probably wrong of me to do, and then
• 54:28
  Speaker 5: change and actually go by it, you know, understanding like hey,
• 54:31
  Speaker 5: I don't have it all figured out.
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: I'm in year one two.
• 54:35
  Speaker 5: Adaptability, But I mean you saw the success he had
• 54:37
  Speaker 5: in college.
• 54:38
  Speaker 3: Man, that's I don't think it's a reason. Yeah, fires
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: me up. That's amazing. Well, it does seem like a
• 54:45
  Speaker 3: consistent message. Like as far as was Matt Rule, the
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: one was Christian, the one Matt Rule said saw his
• 54:52
  Speaker 3: family in the airport. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he had. He
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: was very complimentive of you said that you were walking out.
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: I think it was when he got when you got traded. Yeah,
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: and you saw his family and his kids in the
• 55:03
  Speaker 3: in the airport and you went up to them and said,
• 55:05
  Speaker 3: what's up?
• 55:06
  Speaker 5: Onward man, onward and upward you guys. Yeah, Yeah, it
• 55:13
  Speaker 5: was weird. Honestly, it's like, this is an interesting head.
• 55:16
  Speaker 5: Coach gets canned, I get canned.
• 55:17
  Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, brother, you didn't get canned. You know
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: I can. Yeah, No, you think you gotta tell you so?
• 55:24
  Speaker 3: Would they would they get in the trade? What did
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: Carolina get?
• 55:26
  Speaker 5: They got a two, three, a four, and a five.
• 55:29
  Speaker 5: Not all in the same year, I think. I think
• 55:32
  Speaker 5: it's over a couple of years.
• 55:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Man, you know he told himself that too, like,
• 55:38
  Speaker 3: oh they didn't get.
• 55:38
  Speaker 7: Me a first Okay, okay, I know I would have
• 55:41
  Speaker 7: handled it, and I took that personal and yeah, dude
• 55:45
  Speaker 7: got it.
• 55:47
  Speaker 9: Uh And I've had.
• 56:02
  Speaker 5: I think one that comes to mind was the first
• 56:04
  Speaker 5: play of the Rose Bull. I was you know, that
• 56:10
  Speaker 5: was a game that I don't think anybody knew what
• 56:12
  Speaker 5: was gonna happen, and uh I was pissed off, and
• 56:17
  Speaker 5: uh I just lost the heisman. The boy Derrick Henry.
• 56:23
  Speaker 5: It was the boy.
• 56:23
  Speaker 3: By the way.
• 56:24
  Speaker 8: I love that guy, I really do.
• 56:26
  Speaker 5: I want to not like him, I can't. I love
• 56:30
  Speaker 5: his game, I love him. I think he's I think
• 56:32
  Speaker 5: he's great.
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: But then a couple of years ago, when you beat
• 56:34
  Speaker 3: us in Carolina, you're like, that's for you, Derek.
• 56:40
  Speaker 5: But that game, that game, you know, I think that
• 56:42
  Speaker 5: that play sparked just uh, one of those games where
• 56:48
  Speaker 5: just everything goes right for you. You know, I think,
• 56:50
  Speaker 5: like the safety came down the middle, linebacker slip so
• 56:53
  Speaker 5: there's no whole player. Then there's nobody behind the guy.
• 56:55
  Speaker 5: So I had to do is make him miss, and god,
• 56:57
  Speaker 5: it just house call. And I think we all knew,
• 56:59
  Speaker 5: like this is about to be one of those games.
• 57:01
  Speaker 5: And then and then the flip against uh, when I
• 57:04
  Speaker 5: jumped over that dude against Jacksonville. That was a fun play.
• 57:07
  Speaker 5: That hurt My back hurt for like six weeks after that,
• 57:10
  Speaker 5: But that was that was a memorable one.
• 57:13
  Speaker 3: That's fucking awesome. I know, right, makes you got anything,
• 57:16
  Speaker 3: Garrett jack.
• 57:29
  Speaker 5: We were winning, you know, I mean I think I think,
• 57:32
  Speaker 5: like I have a hard time like when you're losing,
• 57:34
  Speaker 5: like celebrating, like it's kind of like the urgency to
• 57:37
  Speaker 5: like get back to the huddle and get going a
• 57:39
  Speaker 5: little bit is you know, And you're not the first
• 57:43
  Speaker 5: person that said that, and I it might too be
• 57:45
  Speaker 5: just like when you get traded.
• 57:47
  Speaker 9: It's it.
• 57:49
  Speaker 5: There's a lot of pressure that comes with that because
• 57:51
  Speaker 5: you're on a new team, but there's also like an
• 57:52
  Speaker 5: amount of pressure that just gets off your shoulders. We're like,
• 57:55
  Speaker 5: you know what, man, Like, I'm gonna just go have
• 57:57
  Speaker 5: fun playing football because this is what I love to do.
• 57:59
  Speaker 5: And you know, I just think when you I, we
• 58:02
  Speaker 5: had so many tough seasons in Carolina that I wanted
• 58:06
  Speaker 5: more to celebrate than like the touchdown.
• 58:08
  Speaker 3: You know, I wanted to win games.
• 58:09
  Speaker 5: I wanted to be like, not just win one, get
• 58:11
  Speaker 5: win a couple in a row and then start to
• 58:13
  Speaker 5: get momentum. Then you start to see the boys having
• 58:15
  Speaker 5: a little more fun, but uh, just tough.
• 58:18
  Speaker 3: Sometimes that fires me up, dude.
• 58:22
  Speaker 7: I'm pleasure with the I'm glad you with san fran
• 58:24
  Speaker 7: because I feel like you guys are they can be
• 58:26
  Speaker 7: good for a while. They got the organization running smooth.
• 58:28
  Speaker 7: It's just getting to the fucking super Bowl.
• 58:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah right not. I can get Rogers though, Rogers say
• 58:33
  Speaker 3: he's not going to San Fran. You see that.
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: The Raiders might have a shot at him. We'll see, Yeah, if.
• 58:39
  Speaker 3: The Raiders are the big one, big one for him.
• 58:41
  Speaker 3: But I thought he said in a golf tournament, I'm
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: not going to San Fran. Yeah, I think he said,
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: Did you say that? I don't know. I don't know
