  Speaker 1: but how you attack it and how you you know,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: accept that attack and where you go from there, that
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: determines where you're gonna be at. So yeah, I achieved that,

  Speaker 1: I deserve in your careers and things like that.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: But you know what it symbolizes is I.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Just want to think, you know, especially because all my
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: coaches out there who coached me hard and This goes
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: back to high school. You know, Coach Lynn, Coach Ben,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: I know, I ain't really talk to you in a minute.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: I'll probably hit you all up. Sometimes it's all season,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: you know. Even from there, Coach Kyle, coach Juwan Man,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: and even at college coach Prior and coach spence Man.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Just those six people had such a significant and even
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: coach Franklin. Sixty seven people had such a significant impact
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: in my life and how I should be coached and
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: what the standard it should be, and how I had to.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Accept elite talent with elite coaching.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: You know, they really bring the best out of me
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: and my competitiveness every day and challenged me and dared
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: me to be great. I never forget after my first
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: spring ball with Penn State and Coach Franklin brung me
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: in or it was after my first camp. Coach Franklin
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: brung my mom and he was like, Hey, I really
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: want your mom to come up, you know, and he
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: sat down that couch and he told me it was
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: like Micah. He was like, in three years, you'll be
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: a first round pick, and you'll be one of the
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: greatest players to leave here, and you'll be one of
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: the greatest players in the NFL. And this was my
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: freshman year after a spring camp. I wasn't even a starter,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: you know, and just that belief that he had in
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: me and everything that he instilled in me in them
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: three years really been the light and it carries over
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: to the NFL. So, you know, for all those young athletes,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: man like, when it comes to coaches who really care
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: about you and want to push the best out of you,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: accept those challenges of daring to be great, because your
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: coaching will be different. You know, even when I got
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: to the pros, I was coached different by Dan. I
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: was challenged different, and I didn't understand it. You know,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: when I was younger why I was treatedly different. But
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: as I've reached the level of success that I've had
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: in my career, I see to understand why I was
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: coaching challenge different. When you want to do things that
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: haven't been done, and when you want to join the
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: elite company of players that are the world's best have
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: ever challenged this game, it comes with different coaching, It
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: comes with different obligations.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: So those are the type of people that I appreciate.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: That, you know, I tell people all the time, I've
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: been blessed with some great people in my life. So
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: those are the type of people that deserve shoutouts. And
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: I appreciate them because you know, from where I'm at now,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: where I want to finish. We're not done yet. We're
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: still hungry. We still want to do so much more.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: We want to change the game in the football. We
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: want to change how it's played. I see there's so
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: many linebackers out there that's doing so much more now.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: And I see these college guys and eleven, and I
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: see the impact they're making and it's just so special
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: to see. And you know, when it's all sudden done.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: When I think about legacy, it's about impact and how
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Cae you change the game of football, howckey you change
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: how it's coached. How can you appreciate this game? Because
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: this is the game that we love and it just
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: starts right there.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: Man. So we're not done yet.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I'm not satisfied because I just seen Mike Evans go
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: a thousand yard seasons eleven years in a row. So
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: I have to have eleven straight ten sax seasons in
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: a row. I don't know if it's ever been done,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: but that is what greatness is.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: Jerry Rice.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Greatness is consistency, and you appreciate that greatness. I appreciate
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: the challenges that I see of those great players because
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: those are the things that we want to reach one day.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: So we're not done yet. We gotta be consistent. We
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: gotta you know, attack this all season, and we gotta
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: do it again, you know, because if we don't do
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: it again, then what are we? You know, we can't
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: just do it one time, too times, three times, four times.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: We gotta keep raising the bar and keep going. So
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: I'm excited for that feat, and you know, I can't wait,
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: you know. And how I would describe the season would
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: go is I would say it's a state of I
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: would say out of your best players, you know, I
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: would say triumph, you know, because we had every reason
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: to give up. We have every reason not toa care
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: possibly tank, but we had all these guys say no,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: we're gonna fight, we're gonna claw, we're gonna make every
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: team that comes in here earn it. And when we
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: show up, we're gonna make teams earn it. And so
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I'll just say triumph because we came, we came, and
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: overcame so much, and I just couldn't be more proud
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: of the team that I was with this year. When
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: it came to us, all of us come together, we
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: put all the characters aside, all the personality, and say,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: let's just go out there and win. Let's just be us,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: and it really shows. So I'm so appreciative for the
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: people that kept believing because we're not done yet. We
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: are not done yet, and I hope that y'all don't
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: think we're done yet because it's gonna be an amazing, amazing,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: amazing thing to see next year when we're holding the trophy. Yes,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: this big goals, but I'm telling y'all right now, it
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: is holding the trophy. I'm saying my prayers out loud,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I'm saying my goals out loud, so y'all can hear them.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: We're going to you know, we're going to be holding
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: a trophy up next year, point blank period.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: And that is something y'a should look at it.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: You know, fans who didn't give up, you know, we
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: owe that to y'all still came and supported us. We
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: appreciate you so much because that's what real friends are.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: You're there when things are tough, You're there things when
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: things are great. And I know it's been a long drought,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: but the hope is here. The hope is here, The
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: hope is here. So hope you guys are ready bucket
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: your seatbelts because it's gonna be a great twenty twenty five.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: And you know, we got the number twelfth pick in
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: the draft. I was the number twelfth pick in the draft.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: So I believe that's good luck already. That just giving
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: me a sign that we're finna get a great player.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: You know, I get y'all like, but I hope we've
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: drafted my own defense. I want to build this defense
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: around and create this one of the greatest dynasties of
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: defense that we haven't seen in a very very long time.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: And you know, obviously, just like you guys, there's been
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: a big swirl about, you know, the coaching and things
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: like that. But as a player, we just want to
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: control we can control. Obviously, you always want to see
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: people you built relationships with, people that you trust you
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: can fight and have successful. You still want to see
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: them around. But those aren't things we can control. So
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: you know, all I can do is pray, Pray for
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: the best, Pray for all families, everyone involved, because I
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: know it's a tough decision and you know, things that
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: we can't control. But you know, one thing we can
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: control is our effort. You know, regardless of coaching or
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: where it's at, we still had to come out perform
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: and give our best effort because that's how we're going
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: to get to the ball. So, you know, hopefully, I
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: don't know what's going to happen, but I just hope
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: that we're able to establish a great culture an environment
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: to go and win the Super Bowl. You know, but
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: there there is uh you know, obviously the Bears just
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: ex permission to interview Mike McCarthy, you know, and we
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: haven't yet to respond. So it just goes to show you,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: you know, how good of a coach he is. You know,
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: he's a great coach, great person, and you know, you
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: know that'd be ironing because you know, obviously with the
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Packers in that division for a very very long time,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: so it's gonna be something very cool, very very neat
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: to see. But you know, I understand that, you know,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: it's the nature of the business. You know, coaches, you know,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: coach Mike's a great coach and he's always been honest
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: and fair to all. So you know, I'm not surprised
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: by this. He's gonna be in this league a very,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: very long time, regardless of the Cowboys or you know, wherever.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: I just know he's a great coach and it's gonna
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: be very interesting to see. You know, this season gave
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: us a ton of fun moments, man, very turning from moments.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: You know what was my you know what was my
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: favorite non Cowboy moment of the regular season? I think, hmmm, man,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: I'm would definitely go with the Bears. That Bears one
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: right there, because that bro I always say, there's a
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: great deal of karma and football, like football always has
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: a funny way of getting its look back. And the
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: fact that you know, Stevenson was turned around making front
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: of fans and you know, not locked in, not in tune,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: and for their team to lose like that, and you
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: know they kind of went on losing streak ever since,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: has a lot of irony. You know, it's hard to
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: come back from the games like that. So you know,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: that was definitely probably probably the funniest moment to myself.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: You know, the Bears went one to ten since that moment,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: so you know, that really says a lot.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: It really does. Look at her a few teams who
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: didn't make playoffs.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: And I'm going to tell y'all this because I told y'all,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: so y'all need to start listening to me. Bryce Young
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: went on a tear last week. Five total touchdowns, twenty
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: five for thirty thirty four three TVs. This is why
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: you don't give up on franchise players. Sometimes you strictly
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: just have to let these guys grow. I think it
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: was actually a great call by the Panthers just say, hey,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: just sit back, calm yourself, and you know, reevaluate. But
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: the moment since he's been back, he's been on a tear.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: This is the Bryce Young we've seen in college. I mean,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: look at this Steph Curry turn around TV like his confidence, Like,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: this is the type of team that you're going to
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: be scared of going into next year. The way Bryce
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: Young finished. They have a future back of Chubber Huber,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: who they just paid. He rushed for over twelve hundred
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: yards and sixteen seventeen games. So this is a team
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: that you're going to want to be scared of. They're
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: gonna go out get a couple guys in the draft,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: probably still hit free agency. Bryce Young is still on
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: a rookie deal, and they're probably gonna make a run
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: next year.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: This is one of them teams.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Where you say, hey, they're quarterbacks there. Now he's arriving.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: He's not arrived. He's arriving. He's performing at a high level.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: He made some of these games very close. He's arriving.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: You know, he's going up tears and say, hey, this
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: team could be really good next year. So this is
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: a team that we must look out for. I'm telling
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: you right now. I mean he finished the season with
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: twenty touchdowns, twenty one hundred yards, and the way he's
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: played these last six seven weeks has been very, very exciting.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: If I'm the Panthers GM, I'm like, I'm excited about
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: where we are with bright Shaw, I'm excited. And then
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: let's get across another moment, and that's Tyreek Hill. You
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: know Tyrek Hill a about his future and his response, this.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: Is my first time I haven't been in the playoffs, man,
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: So I mean for me, like I said, man, I
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: just gotta do what's best for me and my family. Though,
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: if that's here, that's where wherever the case may be man.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: I'm I'm finna open that door for myself. Do as
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: I'm opening the door like I'm out, bro. You know.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: So it was great playing here, but I.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Mean you're thinking about leaving him if it is a look, Rick,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: I feel you, dog, And he said, I love finishing. Blessed,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: blessing y'all open the doors for the Hill family forever,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: nothing but respect and love. But we can honestly say,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: all athletes, we've been there, Doric mean it.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know. He claimed his love for tour over the.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Past couple of years, but as we see there, and
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: to be fairter is a difference between Patrick Mahomes and Tour,
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: you know, and that's no slight to two at all.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: He's bout his fair share of injuries.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: But you know, leaving the best quarterback in the NFL,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: you know, three times Super Bowl winner, it could have
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: definitely been a mistake.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: And I always tell people all money and good money.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: I understand Rick became one of the highest paid wilde
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: receivers and you always want someone to get their money.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: But it's just some things in life where I'll say
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: I'm staying because I got Patrick Mahomes going to me
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: you know, and that's the truth. That's how I feel
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: about it. You know, I don't care who it is.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: You know, same thing with Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: You see and T Higgins T said, I don't really
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: want to leave. I have Joe Burrow, like, I just
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: think there's certain exceptions, like you're gonna make a lot
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: of money in this league, but you know how you're
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: really gonna make a lot of money.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Winning super Bowls. There's certain quarterbacks in this league where
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: you said.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: I'm playing for them regardless, I take a little bit
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: of less money, whatever it may be, because I know
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: what it's like spots in this league playing with other quarterbacks.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: When you're playing one of them, elite top three, top
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: four quarterbacks.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: I would never want to leave.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: I would never want to leave as a wide receiver.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: I would never want to leave one of the greatest
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: quarterbacks of my generation. I don't blame T Higgins and
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: Jamorrow what they're doing, and want to stay with Joe Burrow,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: who I think has been playing the best this year.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: I mean just outrageous. So you know, I feel him
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: in his anger and how upset he is, and it's
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: challenging It definitely is challenging when you don't have your quarterback,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: you know, half the year.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: And like I said, it's not too as far.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: I'm not blaming no concussions or some of the hits
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: he took on two at all, but the foundation of
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: a team culture and things like that. Man, it's just
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: certain environments I probably wouldn't risk losing, you know. And
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill is a Hall of Famer. He's one of
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: the greatest receivers to ever play in this game. He
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: changed the game of football a hundred. He's one of
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: them X factor type players. But you know, leaving Patrick Mahomes,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: I definitely think he would want to get back to
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes one hundred. You know, looking back on it,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: I can guarantee he's like, man past that dog. And
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I'm never disregarding Tyrek Hill because that's my dog. That's
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: my dog, and understanding that he is a competitor. And
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: you heard in his voice, this is my first year
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: not making playoffs and he just finished an eight and
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: nine year career, so I mean season, so that says
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: a lot about who he is, you know, and not
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: making playoffs and probably a couple of early exits is
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: triggering him. Tyreek Hill has been a championship contending wide
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: receiver since he's been in the NFL, so I understand,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: you know, and he wants to get back to that.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Ain't probably doesn't think the Miami Dolphins can offer him that.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: So can you blame him for him wanting to be
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: somewhere else where he feel like he can win. Honestly, no,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: because we've been seeing across that players are doing all
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: the time. Davontae Adams did it going into New York
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: and he's one of the greatest receivers of this game.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: So honestly, there is no loyalty in this game. There
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: is none with coaches, So I don't blame Tyreek Hill.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: Coaches leave for better opportunities all the time.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: If Tyreek want a better opportunity, let him go get
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: a better opportunity. And that's just point blank period. And
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: let's just get across to Aaron Rodgers. The Jets close
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: out their season with a thirty two to twenty win
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: over the Dolphins. You know, honestly, how Aaron Rodgers finished.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: I understand he has nothing left to prove. Super Bowl champion,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: four time MVP, ten times Pro Bowler, he joined a
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: five hundred club with Tom Brady and Drew Brees, but
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: it would not be the same not seeing twelve on
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: the field. I hope he goes and gives another two
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: three years. I know he's looking to seeing what they
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: want to do.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: But.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: Not having Aaron Rodgers playing football is is going to
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: be It's like they I think I'm gen z.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: You know, I'm gen z.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: So Aaron Rodgers been pretty much playing football my entire life,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: and not having him out there is going to be
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: a shock.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: Accepting the Brady retirement, accepting Drew Brees retirement, now accepting
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is going to be like wow, Like we
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: potentially might have a Madden Year without the Aaron Rodgers effect,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: the quick release, best quarterback in the game. That's going
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: to be very, very disappointed.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: I'm not even gonna lie that. It hurts. It hurts
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: to even think about it, you know.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: So I hope he gives a couple more years, because
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: you know, he's one of the greatest ever. You know,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: I even got I'm still blessed this day that he
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: asked me. You know, I think I played Aaron my
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: second year in the NFL and he saw something and
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: he just he asked me to swap jerseys.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: I just couldn't believe it. I really really could not
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: believe it.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: So his impact on my life and what he's done
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: for the game of football, man, I greatly appreciate extremely,
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: Like he is just one of them guys where you're like, man,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: this guy. I played against him multiple times and just
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: seeing his presence and what he's done in his career
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: has been an honor to see. And if you know
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: he decides to hang it up, it's been a blessing,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: a a rod like truly, he's been a blessing. And
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: thank you for everything you've done for this game. Let's
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: talk about someone's doing. He's been doing so much more
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: for their team the entire season, just like how Nationwide
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: is so much more than a great insurance company, they're
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: a financial services company too. And that's Jamar Chase, the
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: triple Crown runner, I mean, one hundred and twenty seven
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: receptions over seventeen hundred yards seventeen tds, second triple Crown
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: winner since two thousand and five, six triple crown winning
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl era, joining Cooper Cups, T Smith Senior,
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Stirling Sharp, Jerry Rice and Lance Osworth. Is Jamar Chase
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: a wide receiver one? Absolutely, he's a wide receiver one.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: He joins that elite club. He should be paid like
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: a wide receiver one. He's done everything right. Him and
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Joe Burrow got one of the best tandems in the
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: history of football. That's going to l s U Days
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: to Bengals. I mean, it's just been remarkable to see
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: what he's done this year. Congratulations, you know you did it,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: mister always open. Congratulations. I can't wait to see you
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: get paid. You earned every dollar. The only thing I'm
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: hoping for is that you Joe Burrow on T need
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: to break up. Yeah, that needs to happen. You know,
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: I understand y'all want to stay together, but y'all probably
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: need to break up because you're you're already missed a
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: triple crown.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: You've been enough to deal with so.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: But non seriously, man, congratulations you had a hell of
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: a year.
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: Conference winner predictions.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: Let's look back in the preseason, I paid easter of
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: conferences winners. So today we're gonna look back and let's
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: just see what I said.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: We'll play the video on pause.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: At the East Conference Let's see how bad I was.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Let's see how close I was. Let's see if i'm
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: you know, if I have bad takes. Unless see if
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: I want anybody some money, who you know took my
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: expertise opinion. And then at NFC North this is where
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: things get a little bit excited because you say, okay,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: now we got a revamp Bears team. You got the
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Lions who just went to the NFC Championship, and then
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: you got the Packers who got Jordan Love who could
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: have beat the foty nine ers.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Packers. Man.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Between the Packers and Lions, I think Jordan Love is
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: I think his quarterback play could potentially beat Jared Golf.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: I said he could potentially beat Jared Goff. But the
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: Lions are the NFC Nord champs. They've been playing the best.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: If we do a new seating for this playoff, the
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: Lions would have to be number one. I thought losing
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: all those key defensive players were hurt them. But man,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: the way they played the Vikings last night was truly remarkable.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: That was an amazing defense to see man shouting lines. Man,
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: y'all got some dogs out there. Man, y'all might do it.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Y'all might do it. That offense, Jamier Gibbs and the
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: way that defense, y'all.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Could do that.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: For three four more rounds, y'all will be super Bowl
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: champs for sure. Let's start with the NFC South NFC South.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: The Buccaneers are gonna win the NFC South. Baker Mayfield
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: had a turn and they beat the Eagles in the
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: first round playoffs last year.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: But it's gonna be very.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: Interesting to see because of the better QB play between
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: the Buccaneers and the Falcons. I told you so, I
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: told you so. Let's get into the NFC West. NFC West,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna just have to edge the forty nine ers. Man,
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: they kept their whole roster pretty much. That offense is
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: looking so dynamic once again. You know the Rams with McVeigh,
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: you never really want to go against them, But I
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: think when it just compares the teams and who the
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: forty nine ers have and their years of being together,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: it's just you just can't go against the forty nineers
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: in that division. Now, a healthy forty nine Ers team
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: will probably be the NFC West shamps.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: What is the Rams record?
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Where were they ten and seven without McCaffery, ayug Hardgraves.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: I mean, who else They lost their backup Jordan Mason,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: And I'm not making excuses for them, I'm not. But
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: the Rams were ten and seven. We're talking about a
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl a parent's team. Now, I'm not going against
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: the Rams either. I told you can't go against Sean McVay,
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: and they asked them out twice this year in remarkable
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: fashion and great wins.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: So I feel like that should be a tossip. That's
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: like a fifty to fifty.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: But we also did not anticipate the forty nine ers
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: not making playoffs.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: At all, so that this technically can I count.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: Let's get into the NFC East and obviously Cowboys, Eagles,
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: Commanders and Giants once again, it's gonna come down to
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: Cowboys Eagles, And you know, obviously I'm gonna edge the Cowboys.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: Over the Eagles every day of the week.
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: I just feel like we're the best in the world,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: and we won last year and we got a great
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: opportunity this year to repeat. At the end of day,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: I think these guys, these teams are gonna win their division. Now,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: did I know we're gonna lose our quarterback? That I
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: know we're gonna lose both our corners. No, yeah, adversity,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: you know. Congratulations to the Philadelphia Eagles. Y'all went the
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: NFC East, But I hope y'all expect them when that
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: thing again next year. Ain't nobody repeating it's coming back home.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: Let's get Now it's time for the AFC AFC East.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: If I had to pick my division winners, I think
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: in the AFC East, I want to say the Dolphins.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: I think if to it makes that jump, it's gonna
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: be great. I'm not taking anything away from the Bills,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: but you know they did lose a lot, and then
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: you obviously you know they got the Jets.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Right, Rodgers is back.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: If Aaron Rodgers can stay healthy, stay on the field,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: disguise the limits for the Jets. Now, I was a
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: little delusion. I was a little delusion because too obviously
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: didn't stay healthy. No one stay healthy. But put potentially
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: the MVP Josh Allen, who helped carry this team to
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: a Division A division divisional championship.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: So congratulations to the Buffalo Bills. I was a little delusional.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Won't happen again, North? When we think of the AFT North,
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: I mean this is tough. You know, we talk about
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: this is the hardest division in football. You want to
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: say the Bengals could really come out of this division, right,
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: and you know you got a healthy Joe Burrow back, right,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: But then you can say, if Deshaun Watson returns to
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: you know form, right, the Browns are like right there.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: And then obviously you got the reigning MVP of Lamar
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: Jackson and the Ravens.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: It's like, can they put it together? Man?
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: Like, I'm gonna still still stick with the Ravens. They've
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: just been so consistent. It's hard to go away from
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: him as Just like I said, they've been so consistent,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: it's hard to stay away from Lamar just had a
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: forty TV under five, over forty touchdowns, under five interception season.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: Consistency is key in the season. I'll never go against
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: the Ravens. They're gonna be one of the toughest teams
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: in playoffs. They might come out of the AFC. It's
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: gonna be playoffs are gonna be so so fun to watch.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: If Lamar can play like he did in the regular season.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: Is it's up for the league. It's up. Let's getting
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: to the AFC South And then you go to AFC South, right,
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, the Texans, man, they put together one
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: of the most amazing offseasons that I seen in a
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: long time. You know, they was able to keep Nico Collins,
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: they got Tingdale back and healthy. You know, they win,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: got Stefan Digs, They've run, gotten Joe Mixon to help
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: with they run game.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: They just look like a great team so far.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: The Jaguars they make jumps where I think they could
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: kind of push it. But you know it's gonna be tough.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: I knew the Texas went. I understand the fact that
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: they won and CJ. Shot didn't play his best year.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: That really says a lot for his division. Obviously, Jackson
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: fired Doug Peterson today, So it's really gonna be a
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: dynamic thing to watch. But the ANC South is probably
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: gonna run through the Texans for the next couple of years.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: AFC West Final AFC West, Sorry.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: But we gotta go with our MVP, our Shuper Bowl
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: Champ Patrick Mahomes. What he's been able to do is
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: his consistency of being the best and having Andy Reid
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: and you know, being them being that dynamic over the
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: last course. In the last couple of years. We just
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: got to keep it with the Chiefs. Like I said,
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: with the Ravens, consistency is key. I really I would
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: honestly say, Man, if everything played up to par I
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: would be a strong you know, you know, I'm four
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: for for off, you know, just raw, you know, didn't
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: know anything. But if that didn't happen, I think I'm
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: six and two without injuries, everyone playing their best ball.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: I think I go at least go six and two,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: six and two, So say what you want. Last night,
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: the Vikings won thirty one nine to clinch the NFC
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: number one seed in a bye. The chat asking me
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: about your Vikings picked last week.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: In mind you that game is very deceiving.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: That game was very deceiving given a different matchup, you know,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: not different matchup, you know, different circumstances.
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: Obviously watching the game from you know, my point of view,
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: I see the game differently, right. I seen the Vikings
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: team get to the red zone five times but couldn't
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: find ways to finish. Difference between seven and three points
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: is a lot. And they also didn't convert one time
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: where they turned the ball over, but they had opportunities
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: to win that game.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: Did they win it?
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: No? And if they do score those situations, you say,
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: this is a team where you're forcing Jared Goff to
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: throw the ball, you're allowing you're pass rush to get
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: after it.
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: But the fact that they kind.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Of just let the Detroit play their game, standing the run,
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: let Jared Goff standing the playoffs. You're not going to
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: beat Detroit playing Detroit ball. Detroit plays bully ball, and
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: eventually they're gonna you know, they'll find a way to
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: break you and Ben Johnson's and matter of fact, I
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: think this is all Aaron Glynn. Aaron Glenn played one
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: of the best defensive coaching games I've seen in a
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: long time. To hold that team to three, find a
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: way to slow down Justin Jefferson, make Sam Donald uncomfortable,
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: with Sam Donald miss it, you know, a couple of
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: throws which he's been.
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: Making all year.
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: I don't regret my decision, but that came down to
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: the Lions defense won that game one hundred percent. So
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: shout to Lion's defense, Shouts to Aaron Glynn, because that
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: was a masterful performance. That game, like I said, was
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: way more deceiving than you know, you give credit for
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: one hundred percent. But the Vikings played, I mean, the
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Detroit Lions played their butts off, and I thought, you know,
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: them missing on them players, they would you know, slow
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: them down. But I was completely wrong, and I apologize.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: They were absolutely the best defense out there in that feel. Yes,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: let's just make some predictions. Matchup Chargers Texans. I'm going
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: with the Chargers. I think the Chargers have the most
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: momentum going into this. Uh you know this game. Their
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: defense been playing lights out. You know, you look at
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: it justin Herbert's been playing great. I just think, you know,
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: like a texting another team who's battle injuries.
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: But I think the.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: Chargers going with this game. I'm gonna take Chargers. Steelers, Ravens.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: I'm going with the Ravens. I'm going with the Ravens.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: Lamar is on a tear.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: Uh. The Steelers lost.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: They have not been clicking late in December and in January.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: They have not looked like the best team. They haven't.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: This isn't the same uh Steelers team we saw in
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: October or November. They look like a completely different team
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: and versus a team who's looked extraordinary the past six six,
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: seven weeks. I can't go against the Ravens. I'm going
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: with the Ravens and Broncos Bills. This might be Rookie
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: of the Year versus possibly MVP.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: And we're going with the MVP. We're going with the.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: You know what, this game like the way closer than
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: people think. With that Broncos defense, I think they can
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: find a way to slow down. I might take a
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: sneaky and a whopping. This might be crazy. I'm taking
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: the upset Broncos over Bills in the first round of playoffs.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: I'm taking the upset. I'm taking it.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: Vikings versus Rams' man healthy Rams. I might take a
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: healthy Rams. I'm in calling for another upset. I'm taking
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: the Rams over the Vikings in week one. You know,
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: you know we you know they had, you know, a
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: crazy matchup. They had a crazy matchup early in the
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: season where you say, Donald got you know, got saved
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: with a couple of calls and things like that. But
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: I'm saying this game could potentially get ugly. I understand
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: that LA beat the Vikings early in the year. In
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Week eight, I think they do it again. They did
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: not want this matchup. I think the Rams matchup so
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: much better. For against the Vikings because of the tandem,
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: how much they have the Vikings it. They are a
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: great team. But that Los Angeles Rams, they are brewing
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: a upset. They are brewing an upset. They rested their
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: starters last week, and that just means McVeigh has been
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: scheming the last two weeks. He's going to understand the
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: ins and outs of this Vikings defense. It's going to
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: be a great game. I can't wait to watch. It's
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: gonna be a great game. But I'm calling Vikings. I
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: mean Rams over Vikings, Rams over Vikings. Commanders versus Bucks.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: Oh man, we got Marshawan versus the Goat Mike Evans again.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: This is gonna be a great one. Buccaneers roll past
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: the Commanders early in the season, but I think they
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: get they look back. Jaden Daniels, Jaden Daniels, He's he's
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: going to be ready.
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: He is going to be ready. I'm going to take
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: the Commanders over the Bucks.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: In the week one of the playoffs matchup Packers Eagles
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: losing Christian Watson's hurt. We don't know that. How long
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: is Jordan Love out. I don't think we fully know
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: the extent they're losing Alexander. You know, if Jordan Love
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: is not playing, this is the easy one. It's going
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: to be Eagles over the Packers. You absolutely need your
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: franchise quarterback to beat this Eagles defense. This Eagles defense
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: has been a top three defense league. There's no doubt
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: about it. You need your franchise quarterback doing this. But
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: those are my key games. But those are my winners
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: from the NFC in the AFC. Well, I was exactly
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: right in my college playoff predictions though. I said, if
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: Will Howard played like how he did against Tennessee, that
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: Ohio State will be hard to beat. And once again
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: I'm saying it, but Texas's plexus defense is one of
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: the best defenses in college football. They gotta find a
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: way to you know, find a way to slow down
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: Jeremih Smith and junior Jeremih Smith, who's been on the
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Tariff college.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: Football, especially in the playoffs.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: He absolutely decapitated Oregon decapitated him.
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: This is gonna be a great game. That comin bow
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: game is gonna be a great one. Oh Man.
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Just because I hate Ohio State, but they've been playing
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: so well, I'm still gonna go with Texas. I'm still
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: going with Texas. I'm still going with Texas, and my
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: niitty lines are still in it. Notre Dame has done
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: nothing to be here with us. This is the matchup
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: that we wanted. We're gonna beat Notre Dame. We're going
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: to the College Football Playoff Championship. We are going to
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: go be champions, point blank period. We're going to go
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: be champions. Let's go in Miami. I will be there,
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: the energy will be there. Let's go. Let's take some
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: final questions from the chat. I feel t Hill will
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: be a great with Jordan Love or Herbert Tyrek hit
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: the code. He's from Florida. He's not going there. He's
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: not going to be warm. He's coming to Dallas. H
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: scatter Bow or Jant. I'm still taking uh, you know,
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: I'm still taking GNT, No doubt about it. I'm still
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: taking GANT. Are you adding Land L'Angelo Ball's new song
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: to your place? Honestly, I have not heard it yet.
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: I have not heard it yet. I have not heard
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: it yet, but I might have to go listen to it.
