Speaker 5 (01:46):
So at the end of the day, this is the
last weekend, y'all out, the last group to see this
man before he immortalized in Northwest Stadium's.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Come from the Cowboy Killer. He played more teams in
The Cowboy.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
So what's the what's the over under on Santana's speech
at halftime?
Speaker 1 (02:04):
How long? All right?
Speaker 5 (02:05):
All right, it's a three minute opening where he get
to speak, I'm going the overrighted one minute forty three seconds.
It's how long he's on last. But you got jeas
that's pretty long, like less than that.
Speaker 6 (02:22):
Listen straight to the point I might fool y'allboy to
they might try to send man me off the damn Well,
you know.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
What, we give you a hard time, but only it's because,
like I know that you don't necessarily seek the spotlight
like this.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
But what does this mean to you? I feel like
a lot of fans would say this is long over TI.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Yeah, yeah, it means a lot. I think.
Speaker 6 (02:41):
I think more so just from the point of just
knowing that, man, you did so much. I mean, one
of the things about us as players, man like you
can either be one of those guys that's saying I'm
out here playing for these particular accolades, or you can
say I'm just playing because it's I have this much
love and passion for this game. And like I tell
folks all the time, when you're gifted with our abilities,
(03:04):
you know, like you was gifted to do what you do,
you're great at doing that. We was gifted to go
out there and down that field. We wann't just we
want just football players by choice, like you know, like
for us to make it as far as we made it.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Fred always bring up to one percentage like we are
those guys, and so regardless if the guys are first stream,
second stream, third street.
Speaker 6 (03:23):
If he made it that far, if he was ever
to have a career out of that man, that's that's
you have to give him something for that. And beyond that,
if you was able to go out there and put
up good numbers and then now the team want to
immortalize you, that's how special it is. So for me,
like I said before, I didn't play for the Pro Bowls.
I didn't play for the Hall of Fames. I played
because this is my love. I played because of the
(03:45):
guys that I was out there with. And in all,
when somebody could recognize you for that man, you got
to appreciate it because you went out there and you
made them feel that, hey, man, what he was able
to do his body of work, we need to we
need to recognize it.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
See, I'm gonna change my over and under.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
After that speech, the over Undernyes moved to two minutes
and thirty three seconds.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
The line's moving.
Speaker 5 (04:06):
Now he go to questions over under how many tears,
I'm going seventy.
Speaker 6 (04:13):
I'm going say, I'm gonna tell you like this because
I've been like it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
The other night, I couldn't sleep.
Speaker 6 (04:18):
I took a pre workout at like six o'clock. And
I don't know why I took it so late. Normally
I would take it earlier, but we had a long
day recording. Took it at six and couldn't sleep that night, and.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
I'm laying in the I'm laying there on the couch.
Speaker 6 (04:30):
I'm like, well, you know, I might gonna start writing
this speech.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah. And every time I got to my parents, I
started booming. Yeah. So I said, well, damn, I can't
say they name. Come on, you have to get Papa Mouse,
Mama Mouse, you know who I am.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
But it was just like it was like a button.
Every time I got him, he just came. I could
be laughing talking about some of the memories with the
with the guys, with the fans, But every time I
got to my.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
Parents, because you know, the hard work that they put
it where you came, and you know.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Also like during those times when you were going to
practice whatever, it was like they were the ones who.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Had your math.
Speaker 6 (05:07):
Look, I tell you like this, and like I said,
I'm privileged for one to even have the opportunity. But
the one thing that my parents have always showed me,
it's the same thing you gotta see from me, or
you saw from me throughout my game, you know what
I mean, the same thing you see from me my
post career. Like I'm gonna be there, I'm gonna show up,
I'm gonna be I'm not gonna just show up, I'm
gonna be I'm gonna be ready to go, you know
(05:29):
what I mean. And that's what I saw with my parents,
Like they didn't have to tell me that you had
to be a hard worker. They didn't have to tell
me you have to do something or be successful. They
showed it to us, you know, and then not only
showed it to us, they also put me in a
situation as being their oldest to say, Look, we're gonna
be going all night from the morning that we wake
up until you go to school.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
We're gonna take you to school, drop you off.
Speaker 6 (05:49):
We might not come home till twelve, but the food
gonna be ready. Your brothers got to go to school,
make sure they ready. And you have all these responsibilities
and then you have to show up and be able
to be accountable for what they gave you. And so
being the oldest of the house and then now kind
of reflecting on all those memories and all the times
that when you start being rewarded for some of the
(06:09):
things that you're doing well, you know. And we had
guys like that in our neighborhoods, you know, that's kind
of where we are today. That's why we was able
to make because we understood that we could have easily
took that role, but we didn't. We had guys that
was already on that road that told us now. And
then you also had the foundation at home with your
parents that showed you like, Noah.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
This is what we're doing.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
This is this is how hard we're going to struggle
to make sure that you have your your dream, you
know what I mean. So that's why I said when
every time I brought that memory came up to them
about them, that button came in.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
It was like a push button.
Speaker 5 (06:39):
Listen, I love getting just a little bit of alcohol
in you. When I get the alcoholic you, it just
runs gonna come. It don't stop. Like people don't understand
this is how he being since I met him. I
met him we were very young, and he had the
soul of this seventy three year old man.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
So he's right.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
He's always carried his parents with him and how he
had a good height.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
No, No, it's a good trait to have.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
It's always good to have that old soul because it's
prepared you to be an older person and you handling yourself.
Like you said, he's been taking care of his brother
since he was young. And if you ever talked to
Nora and Risk his brothers, they act just like he acts.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
So it's a trigger down effect.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
So let me ask you about your career because everybody
always points to, you know, Monday Night miracle.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
But he played fourteen years.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Yeah, you know what I mean, more than a cowboy.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
To kill top fifty.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
And you think about all of the players who have
played receiver in the National Football League, that's a remarkable career.
So when you look back, what are some of your
favorite memories for you?
Speaker 6 (07:38):
So one of the things that stands out the most
in my memory book is just getting drafted period. Really,
you know, if you think about I walked on to
the football team at the University of Miami, I got
a track scholarship, and I remember going on my visits
to Western Michigan.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
I went to Eastern Michigan.
Speaker 6 (07:55):
I had a visit to go to at Utah, and
after going to Western and Eastern, I'm like, man, I'm
I'm scared of I'm scared of going that far up
because you don't It's snow every every visit I took,
especially around the time I took it, it was snow
on the ground, so I'm like, well, and then I
would come home from those visits, I'm like, Damn, Tanner
Universe in Miami gave you a track scholarship, so why
(08:16):
are you not trying to take that route?
Speaker 1 (08:18):
And I was saying to myself because.
Speaker 6 (08:20):
I wanted to be seen as a football player, and
so I would taking the other business, knowing that deep
down inside, I just took those visits because I wanted
to be known when I walked on to that campus.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
As I'm a football guy.
Speaker 6 (08:33):
And I think when I went on those visits that
humbled me enough to say, look, you want to go
that far away from home, you want to be doing
the off season, have to worry about getting home or
where you're gonna go when you're gonna see your parents,
and when you're gonna see your brothers. I had two
younger brothers that I thought the world love, so I
wanted to be close and I had one of those
little things where I went to sleep one night I
(08:54):
was like, look, man, you either gonna suck it up
and just go walk on and show you worthy of
that that football scholarship or chicking out didn't go take
one of them football scholarship.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
So it was easy.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
One morning I woke on, like, you know what, I'm
gonna take the track scholarship and take the track route
because they're giving me the opportunity, not only the opportunity
to walk on to the football team, but to play
for one of the.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
To the to me, the prestigious college is when it
comes to story in the world.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
Come on, you know what I'm saying. So the Mississippi State, Lord,
I ain't about Missisippi State time I met friend. How
about that put them horns down.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
We're getting the double Columbus.
Speaker 6 (09:38):
So so that's what it was about, man. So when
I got drafted, that was big for me. That was
huge because it's like and not to say just just
getting drafted, it was I was able to walk in
the back door of college football and come out the
front door as the first round draft.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
How about that?
Speaker 6 (09:54):
So to me, that stands that stands big on my
you know that. I guess you could say that board
when it comes to favorable memory. And then I think
also too, when I came over to the to the
Redskins that you know that we was once called the Redskins.
To me that I came off the plane feeling like
this was home, like, because it was crazy leading into
(10:14):
that draft. The week of the draft, it was I
had I heard from nothing but the press up here.
It's like, how do you feel about coming to Washington?
And I'm one of those guys you know we always
said we kN around and said, I'm like, I ain't
from Missouri, but until it's done, you got to show me.
And I'm glad I had that kind of mindset because
sitting there watching it and seeing another guy named get
called at that pick, I'm like, I'm glad. I didn't
(10:37):
have my hopes high, but it was crazy. After the
Redskins picked their guy the next pick, the Jets moved
up and grabbed me. So that's when the little light
bulb went off like I was probably supposed to go there.
Then I get to New York and everyone tell me
like we thought the redsk is gonna get you, and
we see they didn't get you. We moved up, so
now having an opportunity to be drafting and didn't have
an opportunity to now call Washington my home.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Those two stand out.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
What was it like going up against Smooth and Practice
because you guys went at each other. In fact, didn't
you guys face each other when you were in Minnesota?
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah, we did at least once on Monday night.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Yea.
Speaker 6 (11:12):
We faced these other once before then too, when I
was the Jets. Oh Yea came over and that was
like our first or second game of the season, and
I remember Smoothing. By that time they had done kind
of died down. But when we first got in the league,
I wanted blood from I was like.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
The man called me.
Speaker 6 (11:29):
Look, first of all, I met Smooth in like ninety
nine ninety eight and probably nall American. We go to
Arizona and Smooth is like the guy that's just staying
out amongst everybody.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
I mean, the guy's loud, he's talking crap to everybody.
Speaker 6 (11:44):
I believe one of the get the guys that was
there who was a pretty good receiver, Freddie Miller smooth
talking about this dude and.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
His mama and everybody else.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
And I'm sitting there saying to myself, like, boy, I know,
I like smoothing.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Anything like that by me. We're gonna want, We're gonna
knuckle it out. We're gonna do. And but for some
odd reason, it's just like you.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
Know when somebody, you know, how they say real recognized, real,
absolutely smooth saying all that job. And then when me
and him bumped into each other and said, it's just like.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
We were tied to the hip from the.
Speaker 6 (12:15):
Trip, and the whole trip is is we found our
way around each other, having a good time, telling stories, talking, drinking.
You know, we didn't go white water rafting when the
whole the whole team with white water rafting not doing
put my chair outside and they're like, Tanna.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Y'all going ahead.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
I'd be right here when we don't do that, Like
I'm trying to see my senior year, I ain't trying
to die, and nobody down river, you know. And it's
funny because it was me Tarana Ledaney and tell us
avison all, I said, we're not going not going pop
that chrystile.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
We don't continue to celebrate.
Speaker 6 (12:49):
We popped bottles and had a good time in our room.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
But but all.
Speaker 6 (12:53):
Like leading into the league, man, like, you know, we
always wanted to face each other.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
But by the time we got here, it was it
really wasn't no man.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
You know, if we once we did it was it
was it was comedy all because you know, he saw.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Him in front of me. Oh, I've been waiting for this,
and I'm like, here this dude.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
The funny part is we're training for the combine in college, right.
I chose to train in vocal return of course Taylor
from Miamiah. So I'm killing all the receivers that I
got at the Christian Cotton camp. I said, I'm through
with y'all. I said, I'm finna go looking for Tanner.
So I literally go to towner neighborhood looking for him. Yes,
before we ain't came, before we even got draft, this
(13:31):
man call my cel phone.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
I picked up the phone. I see the number. I
don't know, it's not saved. It's miss Smith Food.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
I'm like, who, friend, Smooth, I'm not here in camp
City waiting on y'amnna lock you up on the field.
I hold the damn phone up and I'm like, how
did mama Y got my phone number?
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Man, I'm prissed off. I'm like this dude here. Man.
Speaker 6 (13:52):
But that's Smooth though, man, you know what I mean,
that's that's the dude of yours and man, and I
tell you all the time, like because folks for to realize,
you know, and we we know Smooth for what he
can do off the field because he's been like that.
I came home from that visit with those guys in
the Playball American and I told him. I was like, hey, look, man,
I met the guy Fred Smooth that that corner everybody
talk about Muskey TV. I say, Munkey TV. That dude
(14:14):
had us in tears the whole trip. And it's like
he's been the same guy, but not only that, he
backed it up like the whole year.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
I seen you.
Speaker 6 (14:21):
I was watching ESPN IS to see his highlights, like
he was locking people up, so you know what I mean,
Like that's what you're playing.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
I hated your eyes this texted. I was like, really
you were like really.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Listen, you guys were both bars it's just it's funny
to hear, you know, you guys talk about each other
like when you first because you go way back because we.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Were so young.
Speaker 5 (14:43):
We were so young, so we time stamp by that time. Yea,
we was by that time.
Speaker 6 (14:49):
He had no we had no clue of what life
was going to be like after that.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
It's crazy to think about, like, sitting here right now
in this moment, Yeah, who's calling you looking for you?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (15:04):
An amazing journey if you think about it. But but
that's what sports takes you on. Sports is just more
than a ball game. You get you get guys that
you you're gonna cheer with the rest of your life.
They become family members you no doubt. And now think
about it. He was always known as the quiet one,
and I was always known as a talker.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Now he on TV talking just as so. So that
that's just how I think it is full circle.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
It's always the person who just don't give you all
what you want to hear is the choir. Folks who
know me know I've never Yeah, it's just I'm I'm
I'm an observer.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
But also there's a difference between talking amongst your friends.
Speaker 6 (15:38):
And yeah, yeah, I mean, I'm just everybody that, you
know what, you gotta get around me and be around
me long.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Enough, and then I'm like I can open up to them,
so you know.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
You, I mean, you're getting your deserved place in the
ring of family. And then we have a guy who's
probably gonna be there one day and term going like
he's finally he.
Speaker 5 (15:52):
He he, he chased, he played one game in the ring.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
He chases.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
What is mean to this office?
Speaker 2 (16:00):
I know it sounds like an obvious question, but there's
no question that he elevates everything.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
Yeah, it means a lot, I think. Man, I'm so
happy that they finally got that durn. You know, I
was one of those guys like like BC said the
other day, I was staying on all kinds.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
He was pushing networks.
Speaker 6 (16:15):
I was pushing push and I wasn't trying to be
one of those guys like pay them.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
You know.
Speaker 6 (16:19):
I was on both sides because I understand how it is.
As a player, you want to see your dude just
or you'll just do how you want to put it.
And then as a as a an organization, you gotta
think about down the road, you know what I mean?
You got to think about the guys that's gonna be
up next year. You got to think about your quarterback in
a couple of years.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
So I understand where they was.
Speaker 6 (16:36):
At when it comes to like, look here, we understand
what you you've done for us. We only throwing this
the number thirty out there in front of you just
to try to bring you down here and let's see
what we can do.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
We do respect who you are, and you're a bad man.
Speaker 6 (16:48):
So being that they finally got it done, I'm happy,
not for the sake of just he got his money,
but just for the sake of our team. I think
when you see Debo out there being able to put
in the preseason that he did, and just knowing what
could that look like with.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Terry out there, different types of different type of Like
it's easy to throw everyone in the same pot, but
Deebo is a Swiss arm and I.
Speaker 6 (17:10):
Couldn't see Debo be Debo without Terry together.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
It's a hell of a combination on the part.
Speaker 6 (17:18):
So that's why I wanted to see Terry because I
understand that regardless of how much people outside of this
region respect him, we know what he brings to the table.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
This team knows what he brings to the table.
Speaker 6 (17:29):
Number five know who he is, and so when him
on the field, he's gonna force, he's gonna move like look,
play him, play him crazy. If you want to give him,
give him a man a man, and see what him
A five.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Due to you.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
So I wanted that. I wanted that effect for our team.
I wanted to have that guy that you can say, look, man,
you know.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
What if we got what do we had Terry today?
Speaker 1 (17:49):
You know what I mean? I didn't want that. I
didn't want to go.
Speaker 6 (17:50):
Into the season, if you know what I mean. I
wanted to see the guy out there. And I'm glad.
That's why I said. I'm glad he got his money.
I'm glad he put it behind us. But I'm more
so happy because now our team get to be our team.
We get to really go out there, you know, with
everybody and say, Okay, this is what we're gonna I'm.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
Just glad because now we don't have to answer that
question for the fans, Like the fans were really coming
all over Jarring and I'm like, have you ever seen
a wife and a husband negotiating this thing?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Go back and forth? Like it just will not be easy.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
It's no such thing as an easy negotiation. All they
trying to do is meet in the middle.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
And all, like I say, is this.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
I was finally got handled and at least were not
the Dallas caboy. Look at what happened, And I'm so
happy for I'm so happy for Dallas.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Man happy for Dallas. I'm so damn happy.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
Lord, there's a guy you need a reason. He live.
Jeral Lo Live, jeral jaredy live for Hey boy, I'm
so happy for them, Jared, this is what they need.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Just told you how you do that? He just told him.
Mantley for nine thousand dollars. Listen, I am. I am
so happy.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
So that's the way negotiation can go, like easily, it
can go that way. So at the end of the day,
I'm happy Terry got it done because with him on
his offense, especially as a cornerback, looking at this group
and saying, how would I try to stop them individually?
I can't tell you how to because number five can
can change your ordinary play into a special play, and
(19:27):
he can change a good player into a special player.
He multiplies everything around you will Terry does the same
for the pass catchers.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
So what does it mean for a quarterback in San Chana?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
You know this when you have that chemistry, right, Like
I was using the example the other day on my
radio show, and I was talking about how you guys
tell stories about how you have chemistry with one another
developed to the point where you don't even have to
say anything.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Look, no, I need to look like it's not. Are
we seeing the same thing? Right? I ain't have that
look with all my quarterbacks.
Speaker 6 (19:56):
Don't ask me that I don't know what j can
I'm playing, but I tell you this.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
I tell you this.
Speaker 6 (20:02):
There's certain quarterbacks that I played with that I didn't
have the chemistry, but they just knew who to go
to see what I'm saying. So Mark ranell Or when
I was here, Todd Collins when I was here, Donovan
mcnow when I was Rex Grossman when I was here,
Kirk Cousins had that as a young guy.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Like certain quarterbacks say scrap what they call him. We're
eighty nine. Okay, he over there, alert eighty nine.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
Like I would lead a huddle, Mark say hey, I
need you backside be ready because he knew yeah that
touchdown catching Jacksonville.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
I was not in the progression, Mark said, I might
need you.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Really, he just too it was covered too.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Yeah, the route you see my route, it was lazy.
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Because I'm sitting there, I see the same you talk
the way you had to jump between these two people.
Right when I saw the safety, I already asked myself out.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
I said, well, I'm not getting this ball. Yeah, because
cover too. And that's what I'm saying, like when.
Speaker 6 (20:54):
You still like, I'm gonna put it up and down
quick enough because I know he gonna make a play.
So being the person I am, I'm not trying to
let you down. Let you down when I when I
look back and see the ball, I you know, I
got to say they coming down.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
He got to hit me in my face. I'm gonna
get that's me. You have to take a couple of dressing, y'all. Right,
y'all on me.
Speaker 6 (21:22):
So I'm gonna give you give it to one. But
that's what went through my mind. I say, screw it,
you know what, I gotta make this play. So that's
therese the quarterbacks that I always love playing with, the
ones that say this is the play. But I'm gonna
find the guy who's gonna make the play. I'm gonna
give him.
Speaker 5 (21:38):
And that's what well this I remember, who would I say,
had that which all right?
Speaker 1 (21:42):
All right?
Speaker 5 (21:42):
Because it's so weak. He used to let the ball
go so quick, and I think it gave you a view.
It's something about you, and I thought that. The more
I studied it, I was like, you know what, it's
because Todd, No, I gotta let it go now. And
that gives Tanner the most time he ever had with
a quarters porn raining. The last game of this we
playing the Cowboys. I literally slipped on the end route,
(22:05):
got up, ran the route, and the ball was already there.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Yeah. I just I basically caught it like I was
getting a handoff, like from a from the quarterbacks and
soft the ball.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
Yes, but he just knew like I'm throwing it to
him because regardless what happens through his route, he's going
to make the play.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
And that's what you need in a quarterback.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
And that's why what you saw last year and last
year you saw Jaden show the world that we were
talking about we need more receivers.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
And then then we sitting here, two of these guys
just got paid. Two of them got paid. You see
what I'm saying because of what Jayden was able to
do with smoke the ply, that's what you need.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Let me ask you this, and I think it's pretty
I think it's pretty common knowledge amongst football fans that
if you had had a consistent quarterback with you, you're
a Hall of Famer.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Like you're right there.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
I mean, when you look at the numbers, arguably you
can say I am without that.
Speaker 6 (22:51):
You know, it's guys, guy, But I understand how it goes,
you know, I mean politicking in there, yes, for sure.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
But if you were Tererry, what does it mean now?
Because he kind of went through that, I know that
comparison has been made between you and Tray. Like early
on he hasn't had a quarterback to throw to him,
But now I think.
Speaker 6 (23:09):
His trajectory is a little different. By the time Terry finished,
he should be a Hall of Famer. I think right now,
by the time he finished with his career, probably be
the greatest Redskin or commanders ever. Thinking that, I mean,
he's on that trajectory.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
He's on that path.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
I think if you look at him, this first year
is the only year he didn't have a thousand yards
and he had nine hundred and every year after he
even had a.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Thousand and last year was the first time everyone took notice.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
But last year that was the first time he got
double digit what touchdowns?
Speaker 5 (23:37):
And yeah, then he got the playoff game. So it's
the difference to the playoff games too.
Speaker 6 (23:42):
Like when you think about it, Look, they just had
a list go out of guys who should be up
for the Hall of Fame. Yeah, they had Joy, they
had Jody Edelman in there, and they had Juli whatever I.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Said, Jody right, Julie And.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
Oh if you look at that yards, that's seven hundred
and seven hundred seven, seven thousand and seven thousand. But
the reason why I bring that up is because they've
played so much in the postseason that so wether recognition.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
That's where it starts. Like you think about Linn, the.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Spotlight comes in, that's.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Look at look at his yard.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
It's because those Super Bowl but he won Super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (24:16):
So you get a guy like myself scratching your head like, what, okay.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
My numbers is there? Why are they get more attention?
Why I never got that. No, it's because they played
on the spotlight. Yeah, you know what I mean. And
when I was in New York, I had those games.
Speaker 6 (24:29):
I had those spotlight games three out of my four
seasons there were in the postseason. Threw them those numbers
as a number two, and then then I later you know,
became a starter. So that's all it's about. Man, It's
about seeing yourself on that big stage. How many times
after he's he's performed on the big stage. When you
look at our big stage, our big stage as being
most of our you know, divisional games, you know the Cowboys,
(24:51):
the Eagles, you know what I mean, John, some of
the playoff games that we have playing in. Yeah, I performed,
but it wasn't a lot of them.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Yep.
Speaker 5 (24:58):
Well it go the numbers right here, tear right now,
you're sitting at sitting at six thousand, three hundred and
seventy nine yards.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
We're sitting at the three seventy nine.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
They put him one hundred and thirteen yards behind Bobby
Mitchell at number five. They put him fourteen eighty eight
behind Santana Moss at number four, with seven thousand, eight
hundred and sixty seven Gary Clark at number three, making
him two thousand, three hundred yards away from Gary. Charlie Taylor,
who people don't get his Roughs charge ball up went
(25:26):
nine thousand and eleven yards all right, and Terry's two thousand,
seven hundred away from it. And at number one with
two I mean twelve thousand yards is Art Martin and
he five thousand, six hundred and forty seven yards. Wave Martha,
you be the guy.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
By the time you done well, you're right out there.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
So we gotta we gotta move to a segment where
we do lists, and Anna does this and it is here.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
By the way, give it up for producer Anna.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Yeah, and Ana b Obama, but Nana fan of Odfana.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Ain't doing na I'm good, Thank you are monster point
right now, we're doing great job on the show ride
of Boss.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
I'm trying to I'm trying to stay focused, but it's
it's difficult rushing.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Also, let's tell you about Sege and then we're gonna
do lists because and it does this just pay them bills.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
She does this to annoy you.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Yes, I totally understand. Pay them bills.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Guys.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Let's talk about SIGI for a second. This summer, Seki

Speaker 5 (26:37):
Ken Lamar Beyon said, no wish postboy Carter, No, No,
I did not have on cowboy boots.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Check it out, but I won a uniform. You didn't
go with the hat on who can get it? Couldn't
do it? Well? I guess what.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
All the women in the d n B had cowboy

I appreciate them for participating. Hey listen, I just they
came ready. I was the kids, Lamar cause myself.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Oh well, that was a good one.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Not like us.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Now time out for it's still this season because it's
right before the game agains a giant.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
So Top three players to watch for Washington this season.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
Top three players three we got they could be on
the same side of the ball, they could do whatever.
Just top three well, everything startsing in with a Jedi.
Everything starts and in with Jedi five. Let's start there,
Jane Daniels, All right, y'all gonna be shocked about this
next one because everything ain't about to glitzen the glamor
some stuff about nasty people doing.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Right.
Speaker 5 (27:35):
So I'm going Laramie tumpson number two, the big Barracuda,
somebody that part of the Divine Swine offensive line. I'm
saying Laromie tumpson because last time we won Super Bowls
it was because of the offensive line the Hawks and
that defensive line with Destra Man and Child's Man.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Right after that, the third person, I'm gonna go, I
ain't gonna do that.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
The third person, I'm gonna go, hell Capy ten Bobby
Whagno starts with Babby Bobby wag on the defense. So
this's Jedi five, larreonmy tomsaon Bobby wagged No.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
I like that lineup.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
That's pretty sorry.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
What do you think? Well, he took one of my guys.
We do this.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
He always taking somebody. I mean, he actually saw my
piece of paper, that's what Now I'm lying? So what
I say since he already gave Jayden their knowledge. I'm
gonna say, one of those receivers got to stand out.
It's gonna need to be Terry or Debo. I'm gonna
say Terry regardless of what he went through this off season.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
You get a guy in that situation, he's gonna show
you how grateful he is. He's gonna come out here.
And one of the things about Terry he treats everything
like a business. So he's gonna be ready, He's gonna
be prepared.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (28:46):
So I'm gonna say Terry offensively. On the defensive side,
I'm gonna say, Kwan, you don't understand what I see
in his number twenty.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
He in a Pro Bowl. Molde right, something about this guy?
He got that air reading them.
Speaker 6 (28:57):
Man, Yo, he almost pertold rat now walking into the building.
He just have you know, one of the things that
I love to see in a football player. We look
at the abilding, you know, athletic sism. We look at
the guys that fly around that pass that test.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
I like to see this. You see it.
Speaker 6 (29:15):
You can see the mental boy. How he shows everything
slow down, what he's doing in certain plays.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
How is he he could absolutely see the developments bingo.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
So when you see a guy that's like, wow, how
do you make that play? Because he's.
Speaker 6 (29:28):
Tools, he has the knowledge because he's studying, he's he's
doing the things behind the scenes.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
That was a great big right there. So I got
kwan from my second guy and.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
Third he took wagon in which I told you he
took to of my But I'm gonna say the guy
who we all see right now, this vision of this
guy has been in our head since the NFC Championship
game and he's been flying over the top of the
Eagles line. I'm gonna say, Frankie, I.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Don't know if there's a player who plays like a
maniac boy man, I mean.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
Hair on fire, that's what you want. Energy, intenseness and
serious about his job. There was you want the one
thing about linebackers. You want them to be the swap paint.
I don't care if you're with an office lineman, running back, quarterback,
it don't matter.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Frankie Louver going in head first.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Let me ask you, why is it that Frankie Louver
is I feel like, personally is criminally underrated, like across
the league.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
Like this guy is an absolute this year they finally
started to get him problem.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Final Well, guess what he was in Pugatory. He was
in Carolina. Carolina.
Speaker 5 (30:31):
And when you're in a losing situation, you see it
happen all the time where losing teams do not get votes.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
You don't get Pro Bowl votes, you don't get none
of that.
Speaker 5 (30:39):
Like your market know you good, they appreciate you, but
you're not gonna get appreciated with the rest of the guys.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Until you get those playoff games. Come on.
Speaker 5 (30:48):
When we when we was in the league NFC East,
Philadelphia was running stuff with McNabb and the Reid So
guess what me and Chap was doing everything that Bobby
Taylor and Troy Vincon was doing.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
But they playing playoff games and they win.
Speaker 5 (31:02):
They tried to play for Super Bowls, were going fishing
when January started.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
It's different speaking of that. That's just like what we
were talking about.
Speaker 6 (31:09):
When I had my second Pro Bowl season, which was
the outright season, I didn't get it, but I was
fourth in our division, which that's a shoe in. I
didn't get a vote, did you not? We was we
didn't have a good team, Yeah, didn't get a vote.
It was a lot of other stuff. I think that
that happened earlier that year that led to that not
me getting a vote. But that's what happens sometimes. So
you don't get the recognition because of your team just sucks.
(31:31):
So when you got a guy like Frankie when he
came over, I think when he came over to us,
that was the first time everybody like kind of paid
attention to that market. Yeah, and then he then he
then he showed up. So it's one thing of being saying,
all right, we're gonna watch this guy. But he came
here with his head on fire man. Every week you
saw something from this guy. So I think when you
look at the top one hundred players, he was he
was up there. Yeah, So that's when that's when now
(31:53):
the league has noticed. You know, now now he's that
guy in the league that everybody you can't He's not
gonna surprise nobody, no more.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Right, you knew who I can't to watch and I
love him in college is Mikey Sanrius. Oh yeah, and
I going back to slot corner where he belongs. I
know he's kind of bounced around last night. He can
play wherever you need him to.
Speaker 5 (32:09):
That's what all these Coners can do Jason Jones, all
these guys whereever they need to fill in that week,
that's where they're gonna fill in there.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
And I'm gonna tell this crowd now, y'all gonna love
Trey Amis Now.
Speaker 5 (32:18):
The one thing about it is, y'all don't love no
conerback every day Like some days y'all like us, some
days you hate us. I promise you y'all would like
these two youngsters we got more days than you hate them.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
They they're talented guys, and they're fearless.
Speaker 5 (32:32):
They're fearless because they'll walk on the line of scrimmage
with anybody they don't care.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
So let's get ready for the New York Football Giants.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
All right, all right, all right, it's k one Russell Wilson.
Russell Wilson. That's right.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
Remember last time we were here and there was a
dude in the back in the jest, what about the
children kicked Hi out of me?
Speaker 5 (32:57):
Listen, man, listen, I will say this about your Oh
my god, that might be the best defensive front that
we face all and we're gonna have to.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Say we have to play them twice.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
You're talking about the names out there waiting Dexter, Lawrence Tripple,
do who the Yorkster?
Speaker 5 (33:14):
They just got Carter right, and then we got Brian Burns.
Like you talking about, can't nobody get help the game.
Everybody gonna have to be every man himself on that
offensive life. Like listen, I know how I feel. But
luckily they got Russell Wilson their quarterback. Look, you gotta
(33:37):
come with a game plan.
Speaker 6 (33:38):
Yeah, the game plan has to be I'm finna, I'm
gonna set the tone with them.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
I'm not letting them peel that peel their ears back
and say I'm finna get out to this quarterback. You
gotta go down here with you gotta run at him.
Speaker 6 (33:49):
You gotta run at him, run at the Paris run
to get them off of what they want to do,
specially they know how special they are befront after getting
out to the quarterback. But at the same time too,
when you have a quarterback that we have, Yeah, they
gonna also know that we can't we can't.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Don't break your language. Terry gonna gone.
Speaker 6 (34:04):
But I still feel like we have to be one
of those aggressives guys when I mean or more teams
when it comes to just saying, look, we gotta we
gotta attack what they do best. You know what I'm saying,
Slow them down, get them tied in. They say, okay,
now we can do what we want to do.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Let me ask you this because a lot of people
have said, which I disagree with this, but it's hey,
sophomore stuff.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Look what happened to CJ. Strapp? Why does that not
happen to Jay Dades?
Speaker 6 (34:26):
Well?
Speaker 5 (34:26):
First of all, the offensive line got better, all right,
So the protection is two times better than it was
last year. Two, it's slowing down in JD five head too,
because he just got a here and put it behind him.
Two of three, CJ. Scrowd is really a true pocket passer.
I gotta beat you with the fifth element, that's his legs.
So have they stopped Lamar Jackson from running yet? Have
(34:47):
they stopped Josh Allen from running yet? Have they stopped
Josh Allen from throwing? So they ain't gonna stop him
from throwing. So that just the way it goes. Some
weapons cannot be stopped. They can be slowed down, but
they cannot be stopped. And I got the only Achilles
here Josh Allen had was he would turn the ball
over I got is clean with the football, making him
even harder to stop. Precision passer understands coverages. No, you
(35:10):
don't slow him down. It's a tornado. You try to
get out his way, but you'll never slow it down.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Might drop.
Speaker 6 (35:16):
Yeah, I mean, I mean, I don't have to say
much more. I mean, the thing that I noticed about
what was going on in in in Texas with the
quarterback situation is he couldn't he couldn't escape the party. Yeah,
you know, and that's one of the things that showed
up big and anytime you see a quarterback, you know,
that's the first thing that kind of had me scratching
my head about Jaden Dais because it was it was
(35:39):
it was more hooplab about how good he was with
his legs than he was when he when he came
out of college. If you didn't watch him, you would
have thought he was just a guy that could run, yeah,
until you really I watched a couple of games in college.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
In the air, So when it came down to watching.
Speaker 6 (35:59):
Him really on the NFL setting and see him play
amongst those kinds of guys, I'm like, well, this guy's
beating you with his with his with in his mind,
with here and his arm, and then when he needs
to get out of dodge gett a danger, I'm gonna
use these legs.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
That's the difference.
Speaker 6 (36:14):
When you see him in Stroud, that's the difference. Shroud
can't escape. Yeah, he has to beat your You're not
open he's doing. He need clean blocking, you need clean protection.
Speaker 5 (36:22):
My guy really gets a jiggy when things break down,
like where where's the where's the low game?
Speaker 1 (36:29):
You hope you don't get out to him too fast.
You you play, you pray that you.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
Step back and see where Sometimes you almost don't want
break down.
Speaker 5 (36:39):
No, No, it's called a sugar rush where they rushed
three of us up the field, the deepest man and
they just stopped. They stopped because if they rush too far,
he's gonna take off his run with in the alley
prime example, NFC Championship game, do you remember our last
fumble that we recovered and they said that it's still
went the other way. Yeah, we was only down by
(36:59):
eleven driving finished score and at that point they stopped.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
They shot rushing and he was killing them. Yeah, he
was killing them from the pocket with everybody in coverage.
So when you have a guy that can do that. Man,
you're in trouble. This guy you can't. He can't be defeated.
You don't have an answer for what he does best.
Speaker 6 (37:16):
And if you bring a guy to he gonna outrun
the guy that's sitting back there waiting on him.
Speaker 1 (37:21):
So that's what he has. Man, I think he has.
He has a superpower that a lot of guys wish
they had a.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Triple threat when you look at the receiving corps and
one guy that we don't talk about I think enough
at least to my opinion, is zach Ertz. That's great
last season, and we keep hearing that during training camp,
like he's formed a real He already has that connection
with Terry mccorrin, but obviously JD five and zach Ertz
are gonna be crucial to I think.
Speaker 5 (37:43):
I think we talk about him. He's part of the
Holy Trinity, you know, zach Ertz. You know Terry McLain and.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
The Father, the Son and zach Ertz, the Sun, the
Moon and the Earth, third rock from the Sun.
Speaker 5 (37:57):
Like at the end of the day, we talk about
this man, he's just safety valve for him, Like tight
end is always gonna get you out of trouble. And
what was his other numbers, twenty four and twenty four
in and that that playoff run like never missing the ball,
like when you could throw it to somebody like that,
even when that cupboard way to give him that energy.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
It's fun. It's gonna be fun right now.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
But when you have that type of safety valve that
what we did look up with that we none of
us thought we were gonna do, was he was gonna
play all seventeen regular season games. He stayed healthy last year,
and I think this is a testament to coach Quinn
and him knowing how to handle veteran in older players.
So the thing we have to wish for when it
comes to zach Ertz healthy again because if he's healthy,
(38:39):
he gonna produce that thing.
Speaker 6 (38:41):
Also, with that being said, just having the other guys
to be able to, you know, spell him every now
and then you know, having a guy like tell him
you got talent. Now you have a guy in Baits
who last year showed everybody there you know what he
was worth.
Speaker 1 (38:54):
When he came to this hotel bab.
Speaker 6 (38:56):
We've been seeing that for the last few years in
base but last year was the year that he stamped it.
And I think that comes to just the development of him.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
And he's been crushing due to the priest saying and
then and and you.
Speaker 6 (39:06):
Saw a lot of what he did, what he was
able to do in the blocking scheme of things. But
I think he's a guy now. You can, you know,
see him a little more in the pass. He can
run and he can catch one of the you never
know where whenever we get you know, Ben Sentate ready
man whenever he because you got to think.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
About it, everybody want to see this guy be the
guy right now.
Speaker 6 (39:24):
It takes time, sometime two or three years, different time
for different players.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Different for different folks.
Speaker 6 (39:29):
So I think the core tight ends that we have
along with with zach Man, they're gonna be ready in
prime to go and they're gonna be able to spell
them when we need to give him his rest.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
How is this running back room gonna shake out? Because
I know that Bill Doll, I mean he has that burst.
He's violence.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (39:48):
I mean the only reason he.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
Wasn't drafted suitors because he played one game, because because
of suspension.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
We find a diamond in the rough with not a
let of tread on the ties. Come on, we all
in here. When Bottle used cod got home toll out
home boy.
Speaker 6 (40:00):
You know, hey, hey, this thing ain't got a twenty
thousand on my last new college. What I'm talking four
hundred dollars, Dukes of the Savory. That's what you did,
like four hundred dollars and that's what broke down.
Speaker 1 (40:14):
That's what we found. We found a deal.
Speaker 5 (40:17):
And now I think what they're gonna do though, I
think they're gonna they're gonna divvy up the carries very good.
So you don't know how we attacking them. Now that
Bill brings speed, puts power plus a way to get
through the hole when he comes in the office, you
don't know.
Speaker 1 (40:31):
What we're gonna do.
Speaker 5 (40:31):
Because he can actually catch the ball at the backfield.
So none of our backs undresses the offense. None of
our backs say all right, well they ain't passing the ball,
like well, he can't pass blocker this or that. All
of them can do everything just good enough for the office,
can do everything. I think, who's really who's really just
sliding at the mouth right now? It's Cliff Kings bad
because he can unleash the hole because of the offensive line,
(40:54):
because last year, we kept tight ends in the line,
We kept the backs in to help block a lot
and chip.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
He ain't gonna have to do that.
Speaker 3 (41:00):
Young people were like, why is he open up the playbook.
I'm like, he's got a rookie quarterback in game too.
Speaker 5 (41:04):
And he got an offensive line that needs a little
help from time to time. But now that you got
Laron me toss over there, you have to chip it off. Hey,
I don't think you got chips and deps. You do
that at home right during the game.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
We ain't gonna do no chippings.
Speaker 5 (41:16):
It gonna be man, it gonna be one man can
take this guy with and we need to double team
on the other side.
Speaker 1 (41:21):
We can do that.
Speaker 5 (41:22):
So if anybody gonna be unlocked this year besides JD five,
it's gonna be Cliff Kingsby.
Speaker 3 (41:28):
Let's go to the defensive side of the football.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
And I know they added von Miller, maybe not in
his pind but even last year, and it put this
in the run A great job.
Speaker 3 (41:34):
Anna bobs up seven nothing as we speak.
Speaker 2 (41:36):
But no one got off the ball quick last season
off von Miller last season even as a vet.
Speaker 6 (41:42):
Yeah, most definitely, I think I gave the chickens. Yeah,
he raised, he raised chicken. He chasing anybody gotta chase chicken.
Speaker 1 (41:50):
I don't know if you ever chased one, but I'm
from I'm from We chased chicken. We chased chickens.
Speaker 6 (41:57):
Yes, so no, that's that's actually an art. So we
don't be surprised when you got fast guys coming from Florida.
Speaker 1 (42:06):
And that's why we feel like Rocky, you know what
I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (42:09):
It happens, But I just think his get off is
gonna it's helping him to age twelve if they pass rush.
And the fact that he's not just a sacker. He's
a sex script, force fumble guy, like he's going for
the try fecta every time he gets his hole on you.
But don't worry about von Miller. Just like JD five
is the force multiply on offense, von Miller is a
(42:31):
force smote topply on defense.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
He's gonna make sure Frankie Lufu rushing from the other
side not getting double team.
Speaker 5 (42:38):
He gonna make sure that Ken Law and Johnny Newton
all getting one on ones.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
In the middle their sack total goes up.
Speaker 5 (42:46):
Maybe he'll stay at six or seven, But what about
the other guy that got seal and the other guy
that got said, and it starts to be a group
effort in it all, he's the catalyst for it.
Speaker 6 (42:54):
I think one of the things that stands out about
what you see on our defensive side of the ball,
when you at a guy like von Miller, like he
just spoke, he just spoke on, that opens up everything
else for everybody else, because when one guy get more
attention or you have to double team one, then you
got a guy that you got a guy in the
middle that needs to be you know, dealt with in
kin law, you have a guy in the middle that
needs to be dealt with our young guys, you know
(43:17):
what I mean.
Speaker 1 (43:17):
And then not only that, you got a guy in
Louis who we have a different.
Speaker 6 (43:19):
Role that I don't know how they gonna stop him
from from blissing coming down hill. You know, he he
finds the way every time. So you know, when you
have that kind of when you have those kind of
guys on your team period offensively, defensively, special team wise,
it just set things up to be one of those
things that we're gonna always be in the seat of
dictating everything. You know what I mean, yeah, we have
(43:40):
that special because I've been on teams where we went
in there with like what we.
Speaker 1 (43:44):
Got, let's just take that.
Speaker 6 (43:45):
We gotta take their pun. We got to hope so
that we we gotta we gotta beig. But don't bring
trying to get to the fourth course. Now we the
one coming dictating change what you got going on?
Speaker 1 (43:55):
We bringing it to you.
Speaker 6 (43:56):
You know what I mean offensively and defensive, but especially defensively.
You see the key pieces that we have.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
What does it mean when you have a veteran Because
even Javon kill I was saying, like I look over
and I see von Miller like popping off the football,
Like immediately it inspires me, like I'm trying to get
to that level like he sees it.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
When you have a veteran, I know you experienced it.
Speaker 1 (44:15):
Wait, he gonna think about it. You got him and
Wagner's telling the defense follow us.
Speaker 5 (44:21):
We know the trail up to the super Bowl, we
know where it ends at, we know how to get there,
and we know how to finish it.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
Like when you got two guys like that on two different.
Speaker 5 (44:30):
Levels of your defense, it changes everything. It changes how
you go about your beatings. It changes what's acceptible and
what's not acceptable. So it's just a different floor. And
I'm worried about the ceiling.
Speaker 1 (44:43):
The floor is high. I know Michael Jordan said that
the floor is high.
Speaker 3 (44:47):
What was Jordan's saying back then? Man?
Speaker 6 (44:49):
He was A.
Speaker 1 (44:52):
And You're like, I think we're going to We're coming
to you all, we come to Anna.
Speaker 3 (44:56):
All right, let's go. Well, I think it's time we're going.
Speaker 2 (44:59):
To do Q and A.
Speaker 3 (45:00):
Okay, Well, does anyone happened here?
Speaker 1 (45:03):
Have questions?
Speaker 3 (45:04):
If not, we can skip forward.
Speaker 1 (45:06):
But if anyone has any questions for fred Or I
know there was kind of light. I know her voice
is kind of light. It doesn't carry.
Speaker 5 (45:13):
Do y'all have any questions? Y'all want to ask me
Jinks or Santana. It can be pretty much anything. Do
you want them to come up and have them?
Speaker 1 (45:22):
Y'all got someone in the back, We have someone in
the back. The toughest opponent.
Speaker 5 (45:28):
I think the toughest opponent is gonna have to be
the person that won the Super Bowl last year.
Speaker 1 (45:32):
They ain't not the Vision. It's the Philadelphia Eagles.
Speaker 5 (45:35):
But I would say besides them, because that's a that's
a rivalry game. So throw that out, I would say,
the Kansas City Chiefs, I say, that's the game.
Speaker 1 (45:44):
No, no, be quiet, you we gotta spinet. She didn't
told on herself over there? You you got, you got caught?
Oh man, yay? Anybody else what you got? Who got?
(46:11):
I stand up? Talk to us? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, okay,
what I call it? No, thank you?
Speaker 6 (46:23):
I think my my favorite game of my career, my
favorite game of my career, That's what I'm saying. So
you guys, I appreciate the love for the Cowboy game
because I understand what it means. You know, I understand
that playing the Cowboys was like a super Bowl game
for people who was Redskin and Commanders fan.
Speaker 1 (46:40):
So I understand it. I get it now. I'm not tripping.
But as a player, we did I did nothing.
Speaker 6 (46:45):
The team did nothing into those last couple of two minutes,
So you don't get yourself a penning them back. Now.
I did appreciate it. I appreciate that flight home because boy,
we were parting. We're talking about drinking and playing cards.
Speaker 1 (46:57):
Boy, hey we didn't sleep.
Speaker 6 (47:00):
But I would say my favorite game of my career,
favorite of my career was the Jacksonville game in six
the three touchdowns, and that same year in five the
Christmas Eve game against the Giants with three touchdowns. Those
two stand down, no my two favorite games. Great question,
that question, great question.
Speaker 5 (47:18):
What you got, Doug.
Speaker 7 (47:19):
Were no question, great question, great question.
Speaker 5 (47:35):
Let's start with those bleacher creatures from phil and Death.
They showed us what we were slacking it, and all right,
the question was where we stand up?
Speaker 1 (47:46):
Where did we stand up?
Speaker 5 (47:48):
And against the Eagles when it comes to the team
that we have now and Terry McLaurin, all right, we
are on pace with them because last year we saw
the NFC Championship game, they were just bigger in us.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
They pushed us around, they beat us up in the trenches.
So what did we do? We went got Ken Lack,
who was like six five, three forty.
Speaker 5 (48:08):
Pounds, first man off the bus, lamb at Thompson right,
moving Cole into guard. Got bigger like Sam Co's be
in there. We drafted the first round of Conny. We
got bigger. We went got dt Wise, we got bigger.
We got our eye black in the in the alley
last year when we were ready to go back and
fight in that same alley this year, and we brought
some size with us. They lost more players than we gained.
(48:30):
We gain more players than they lost. I think we
got a chance with them. Plus I feel like our
quarterback is better than theirs.
Speaker 1 (48:36):
Yeah, I like fred take on it.
Speaker 6 (48:38):
I think I think personally to me, you know, regardless
of how big they were, we saw those same guys
when we beat them at home, and I think the
only thing that we didn't do in that an Unsea
Championship game is just show up.
Speaker 1 (48:49):
You know.
Speaker 6 (48:49):
We had a lot of guys that just you know,
fell short of what that game was, you know, was
meant to be as players. You you lived to be
on that stage, and a lot of guys didn't show.
Speaker 1 (49:00):
Up, you know what I mean.
Speaker 6 (49:01):
So so to me, if you ask me we can
play with anybody, you've got to show up. You got
to hit a guy in them out. And that's what
I was always about. Look, man, I'm gonna bring it
to you before you bring it to me. Let's show
you what type of dead is. And I think that's
what they did to us when that guy, when when
Sa Kuan got that ball in his hand and went
and hit the left side line and scored on us.
Speaker 5 (49:20):
I'm talking about the first player to g I knew
it was gonna be a long win for us, and
then our team double down and front with the ball
every time they got it, So that that's what showed
me that we just won't ready for the moment we
let them out the hook bingo they win with them,
you know.
Speaker 1 (49:34):
So I just feel like we gotta show up. Man.
Speaker 6 (49:36):
I don't think it's about even I mean, I love
the fact that we did go out there and get
those key players, but bigger, no, big man, we could
we could play with. Anybody's got to show up, all right.
We got more questions, any more questions?
Speaker 1 (49:46):
All Right, what you got?
Speaker 3 (49:48):
Okay, So I'm still.
Speaker 1 (49:51):
All right. I got you. We're gonna take it easy
on you. All good. I've been.
Speaker 2 (49:58):
Keep telling me.
Speaker 1 (50:03):
Yeah, it.
Speaker 5 (50:07):
Means something players. It means something to the players at
the bottom of the roster.
Speaker 1 (50:11):
It made something.
Speaker 5 (50:12):
It's for the players that didn't get drafted high they
wanted to. It's made for the players that turn into
London Fletcher they end up being a yellow jacket. It's
important for a lot of players that get overlooked because
it's so easy to get overlooked in the draft process.
You gotta realize it's five thousand plus of us coming
out every year looking for the same job that Bruce
Smilth won't lead because he's been there for seventeen years
(50:35):
a matter to try to be a cornerback and dal.
Speaker 1 (50:37):
Green been there for twenty forty years.
Speaker 5 (50:39):
Right, So in five thousand, like three thousand, people don't
get turned down every year like this job ain't for you,
and they gonna keep on coming. So that preseason counts, right,
because we only good as the fifty third person on
our roster, and so many times the players that's taking
lower become better than the players that's taking higher.
Speaker 1 (50:57):
It happened all the time. So what he's saying is
BA is yeah, so your friend was kind of right.
Speaker 6 (51:03):
We don't necessarily go into that game saying we need
to win the Super Bowl, but we going to that
game that say that we want to get good reps.
I remember being out there in the coach say, look,
the guys that's going to play, who I'm expecting to
see on week one that's gonna be my starters. Give
me whatever many reps I got you in the game.
I want to see good stuff on tape. And then
now the guys that come in behind show me you
(51:24):
deserve to be on this team.
Speaker 1 (51:25):
See what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (51:26):
So whether you win, lose, or draw, you want to
put good stuff on tape and then we can kind
of build from there. Every week it's gonna be a
new week for you to get better. And then by
the time the season start, we should be ready to go.
You got a question, all right, what you got?
Speaker 1 (51:41):
Okay? Okay? Did I dread plan? Who I hated? Good question? Well,
we ain't really dread.
Speaker 5 (51:52):
Playing anybody, but sometime if you know you're going to
play Green Bay in this December and it's three below
y'all sitting in y'all living room talking about look out
South Thade.
Speaker 1 (52:03):
We out here some tights and le Tarz been playing.
And I can tell you what.
Speaker 5 (52:08):
Really hurt doing those cold games, not getting hit a
hidden because I think as you go you warm up,
it's whining, like somebody step on your toe and they
got in they clicks and you just hear your toe
busts in your head. You're like, oh my god, I
ain't gonna even made a shy out of the game.
So I think it's the cold weather games. And I
(52:30):
hated playing in Pittsburgh because it's already's dark and dingy.
Speaker 1 (52:37):
It's all. It's always great gloomy. It's always gloomy. I'd
be like, do the sun is it Picksburg? Ever? Pittsburgh
for me?
Speaker 6 (52:50):
So so I'm gonna tell you all this, y'all gonna
y'all gonna scratch your head with this one.
Speaker 1 (52:54):
It wasn't a game that I that I didn't like,
the cared about. It was the other me, because you
hate the I hate. But more so the the cold
wasn't nothing because I got used to for being in
New York and here it was rain.
Speaker 6 (53:10):
When it rained outside, I wanted to get in a
cocoon and somewhere and hide myself. Like I hated playing
in the rain. And as a receiver, we play with gloves.
I don't play with gloves for the simple fact that
they look cool. I'm trying to slow that ball down.
And the reason sometimes why you have fingers that look
like these is because the ball them broke.
Speaker 1 (53:33):
The ball done broke so many in my fingers.
Speaker 6 (53:35):
It's impossible to catch the ball with glove song And
it's wet outside, So like I dreaded, I dreaded playing
in the rain, But I.
Speaker 1 (53:45):
Did like the snow games. George were making snow angels
and all kinds of stuff like it was just the
rain for me. Great question, That was a great question.
What you got. Yeah, they're gonna be tough.
Speaker 6 (54:03):
I never just tell him, ud they always get. They
always gave us a hard time regards something.
Speaker 1 (54:08):
About them when it comes to us. I don't care.
Speaker 5 (54:11):
The one thing I'm happy about domn how you boy
oh talking about Daniel Daniel Jones at least found.
Speaker 1 (54:18):
Us every day.
Speaker 5 (54:19):
He'll be a Pro Bowl, be a Hall of Famer.
Yeah yeah, he beat our ass last year. Yeah yeah,
(54:40):
listen here, we don't feel sorry for Russell. We're gonna
Russell to go through all the bad stuff he's going through.
Speaker 1 (54:46):
It's our time.
Speaker 5 (54:49):
No, no, we won't overlook them, all right. We would
never overlook the Giants. Let's be honest. The Giants and
had our numbers the last twenty five years. It don't
matter who being quarterbacking. Think the Beato beat us one year,
Temmy Cutlets beat us. So we don't overlook them, and
we damn sure not gonna overlook them. With that defensive
line they got and they got some young talent when
(55:10):
Lena was one of the best wide receivers in football
right now. They got talent there and Jackson Dark when
they finally decided to play him, he could play.
Speaker 1 (55:18):
Plus, they got Jamis on that never never doubt Jameis Winston.
I got neighbors on my fantasy team, tam Please, Lord,
what you gotta tak Pittsburg.

to speak, I'm going the overrighted one minute forty three seconds.
It's how long he's on last. But you got jeas
that's pretty long, like less than that.
Speaker 6 (02:22):
Listen straight to the point I might fool y'allboy to
they might try to send man me off the damn Well,
you know.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
What, we give you a hard time, but only it's because,
like I know that you don't necessarily seek the spotlight
like this.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
But what does this mean to you? I feel like
a lot of fans would say this is long over TI.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Yeah, yeah, it means a lot. I think.
Speaker 6 (02:41):
I think more so just from the point of just
knowing that, man, you did so much. I mean, one
of the things about us as players, man like you
can either be one of those guys that's saying I'm
out here playing for these particular accolades, or you can
say I'm just playing because it's I have this much
love and passion for this game. And like I tell
folks all the time, when you're gifted with our abilities,
(03:04):
you know, like you was gifted to do what you do,
you're great at doing that. We was gifted to go
out there and down that field. We wann't just we
want just football players by choice, like you know, like
for us to make it as far as we made it.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Fred always bring up to one percentage like we are
those guys, and so regardless if the guys are first stream,
second stream, third street.
Speaker 6 (03:23):
If he made it that far, if he was ever
to have a career out of that man, that's that's
you have to give him something for that. And beyond that,
if you was able to go out there and put
up good numbers and then now the team want to
immortalize you, that's how special it is. So for me,
like I said before, I didn't play for the Pro Bowls.
I didn't play for the Hall of Fames. I played
because this is my love. I played because of the
(03:45):
guys that I was out there with. And in all,
when somebody could recognize you for that man, you got
to appreciate it because you went out there and you
made them feel that, hey, man, what he was able
to do his body of work, we need to we
need to recognize it.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
See, I'm gonna change my over and under.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
After that speech, the over Undernyes moved to two minutes
and thirty three seconds.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
The line's moving.
Speaker 5 (04:06):
Now he go to questions over under how many tears,
I'm going seventy.
Speaker 6 (04:13):
I'm going say, I'm gonna tell you like this because
I've been like it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
The other night, I couldn't sleep.
Speaker 6 (04:18):
I took a pre workout at like six o'clock. And
I don't know why I took it so late. Normally
I would take it earlier, but we had a long
day recording. Took it at six and couldn't sleep that night, and.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
I'm laying in the I'm laying there on the couch.
Speaker 6 (04:30):
I'm like, well, you know, I might gonna start writing
this speech.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah. And every time I got to my parents, I
started booming. Yeah. So I said, well, damn, I can't
say they name. Come on, you have to get Papa Mouse,
Mama Mouse, you know who I am.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
But it was just like it was like a button.
Every time I got him, he just came. I could
be laughing talking about some of the memories with the
with the guys, with the fans, But every time I
got to my.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
Parents, because you know, the hard work that they put
it where you came, and you know.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Also like during those times when you were going to
practice whatever, it was like they were the ones who.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Had your math.
Speaker 6 (05:07):
Look, I tell you like this, and like I said,
I'm privileged for one to even have the opportunity. But
the one thing that my parents have always showed me,
it's the same thing you gotta see from me, or
you saw from me throughout my game, you know what
I mean, the same thing you see from me my
post career. Like I'm gonna be there, I'm gonna show up,
I'm gonna be I'm not gonna just show up, I'm
gonna be I'm gonna be ready to go, you know
(05:29):
what I mean. And that's what I saw with my parents,
Like they didn't have to tell me that you had
to be a hard worker. They didn't have to tell
me you have to do something or be successful. They
showed it to us, you know, and then not only
showed it to us, they also put me in a
situation as being their oldest to say, Look, we're gonna
be going all night from the morning that we wake
up until you go to school.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
We're gonna take you to school, drop you off.
Speaker 6 (05:49):
We might not come home till twelve, but the food
gonna be ready. Your brothers got to go to school,
make sure they ready. And you have all these responsibilities
and then you have to show up and be able
to be accountable for what they gave you. And so
being the oldest of the house and then now kind
of reflecting on all those memories and all the times
that when you start being rewarded for some of the
(06:09):
things that you're doing well, you know. And we had
guys like that in our neighborhoods, you know, that's kind
of where we are today. That's why we was able
to make because we understood that we could have easily
took that role, but we didn't. We had guys that
was already on that road that told us now. And
then you also had the foundation at home with your
parents that showed you like, Noah.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
This is what we're doing.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
This is this is how hard we're going to struggle
to make sure that you have your your dream, you
know what I mean. So that's why I said when
every time I brought that memory came up to them
about them, that button came in.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
It was like a push button.
Speaker 5 (06:39):
Listen, I love getting just a little bit of alcohol
in you. When I get the alcoholic you, it just
runs gonna come. It don't stop. Like people don't understand
this is how he being since I met him. I
met him we were very young, and he had the
soul of this seventy three year old man.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
So he's right.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
He's always carried his parents with him and how he
had a good height.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
No, No, it's a good trait to have.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
It's always good to have that old soul because it's
prepared you to be an older person and you handling yourself.
Like you said, he's been taking care of his brother
since he was young. And if you ever talked to
Nora and Risk his brothers, they act just like he acts.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
So it's a trigger down effect.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
So let me ask you about your career because everybody
always points to, you know, Monday Night miracle.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
But he played fourteen years.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Yeah, you know what I mean, more than a cowboy.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
To kill top fifty.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
And you think about all of the players who have
played receiver in the National Football League, that's a remarkable career.
So when you look back, what are some of your
favorite memories for you?
Speaker 6 (07:38):
So one of the things that stands out the most
in my memory book is just getting drafted period. Really,
you know, if you think about I walked on to
the football team at the University of Miami, I got
a track scholarship, and I remember going on my visits
to Western Michigan.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
I went to Eastern Michigan.
Speaker 6 (07:55):
I had a visit to go to at Utah, and
after going to Western and Eastern, I'm like, man, I'm
I'm scared of I'm scared of going that far up
because you don't It's snow every every visit I took,
especially around the time I took it, it was snow
on the ground, so I'm like, well, and then I
would come home from those visits, I'm like, Damn, Tanner
Universe in Miami gave you a track scholarship, so why
(08:16):
are you not trying to take that route?
Speaker 1 (08:18):
And I was saying to myself because.
Speaker 6 (08:20):
I wanted to be seen as a football player, and
so I would taking the other business, knowing that deep
down inside, I just took those visits because I wanted
to be known when I walked on to that campus.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
As I'm a football guy.
Speaker 6 (08:33):
And I think when I went on those visits that
humbled me enough to say, look, you want to go
that far away from home, you want to be doing
the off season, have to worry about getting home or
where you're gonna go when you're gonna see your parents,
and when you're gonna see your brothers. I had two
younger brothers that I thought the world love, so I
wanted to be close and I had one of those
little things where I went to sleep one night I
(08:54):
was like, look, man, you either gonna suck it up
and just go walk on and show you worthy of
that that football scholarship or chicking out didn't go take
one of them football scholarship.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
So it was easy.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
One morning I woke on, like, you know what, I'm
gonna take the track scholarship and take the track route
because they're giving me the opportunity, not only the opportunity
to walk on to the football team, but to play
for one of the.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
To the to me, the prestigious college is when it
comes to story in the world.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
Come on, you know what I'm saying. So the Mississippi State, Lord,
I ain't about Missisippi State time I met friend. How
about that put them horns down.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
We're getting the double Columbus.
Speaker 6 (09:38):
So so that's what it was about, man. So when
I got drafted, that was big for me. That was
huge because it's like and not to say just just
getting drafted, it was I was able to walk in
the back door of college football and come out the
front door as the first round draft.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
How about that?
Speaker 6 (09:54):
So to me, that stands that stands big on my
you know that. I guess you could say that board
when it comes to favorable memory. And then I think
also too, when I came over to the to the
Redskins that you know that we was once called the Redskins.
To me that I came off the plane feeling like
this was home, like, because it was crazy leading into
(10:14):
that draft. The week of the draft, it was I
had I heard from nothing but the press up here.
It's like, how do you feel about coming to Washington?
And I'm one of those guys you know we always
said we kN around and said, I'm like, I ain't
from Missouri, but until it's done, you got to show me.
And I'm glad I had that kind of mindset because
sitting there watching it and seeing another guy named get
called at that pick, I'm like, I'm glad. I didn't
(10:37):
have my hopes high, but it was crazy. After the
Redskins picked their guy the next pick, the Jets moved
up and grabbed me. So that's when the little light
bulb went off like I was probably supposed to go there.
Then I get to New York and everyone tell me
like we thought the redsk is gonna get you, and
we see they didn't get you. We moved up, so
now having an opportunity to be drafting and didn't have
an opportunity to now call Washington my home.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Those two stand out.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
What was it like going up against Smooth and Practice
because you guys went at each other. In fact, didn't
you guys face each other when you were in Minnesota?
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah, we did at least once on Monday night.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Yea.
Speaker 6 (11:12):
We faced these other once before then too, when I
was the Jets. Oh Yea came over and that was
like our first or second game of the season, and
I remember Smoothing. By that time they had done kind
of died down. But when we first got in the league,
I wanted blood from I was like.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
The man called me.
Speaker 6 (11:29):
Look, first of all, I met Smooth in like ninety
nine ninety eight and probably nall American. We go to
Arizona and Smooth is like the guy that's just staying
out amongst everybody.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
I mean, the guy's loud, he's talking crap to everybody.
Speaker 6 (11:44):
I believe one of the get the guys that was
there who was a pretty good receiver, Freddie Miller smooth
talking about this dude and.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
His mama and everybody else.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
And I'm sitting there saying to myself, like, boy, I know,
I like smoothing.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Anything like that by me. We're gonna want, We're gonna
knuckle it out. We're gonna do. And but for some
odd reason, it's just like you.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
Know when somebody, you know, how they say real recognized, real,
absolutely smooth saying all that job. And then when me
and him bumped into each other and said, it's just like.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
We were tied to the hip from the.
Speaker 6 (12:15):
Trip, and the whole trip is is we found our
way around each other, having a good time, telling stories, talking, drinking.
You know, we didn't go white water rafting when the
whole the whole team with white water rafting not doing
put my chair outside and they're like, Tanna.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Y'all going ahead.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
I'd be right here when we don't do that, Like
I'm trying to see my senior year, I ain't trying
to die, and nobody down river, you know. And it's
funny because it was me Tarana Ledaney and tell us
avison all, I said, we're not going not going pop
that chrystile.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
We don't continue to celebrate.
Speaker 6 (12:49):
We popped bottles and had a good time in our room.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
But but all.
Speaker 6 (12:53):
Like leading into the league, man, like, you know, we
always wanted to face each other.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
But by the time we got here, it was it
really wasn't no man.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
You know, if we once we did it was it
was it was comedy all because you know, he saw.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Him in front of me. Oh, I've been waiting for this,
and I'm like, here this dude.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
The funny part is we're training for the combine in college, right.
I chose to train in vocal return of course Taylor
from Miamiah. So I'm killing all the receivers that I
got at the Christian Cotton camp. I said, I'm through
with y'all. I said, I'm finna go looking for Tanner.
So I literally go to towner neighborhood looking for him. Yes,
before we ain't came, before we even got draft, this
(13:31):
man call my cel phone.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
I picked up the phone. I see the number. I
don't know, it's not saved. It's miss Smith Food.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
I'm like, who, friend, Smooth, I'm not here in camp
City waiting on y'amnna lock you up on the field.
I hold the damn phone up and I'm like, how
did mama Y got my phone number?
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Man, I'm prissed off. I'm like this dude here. Man.
Speaker 6 (13:52):
But that's Smooth though, man, you know what I mean,
that's that's the dude of yours and man, and I
tell you all the time, like because folks for to realize,
you know, and we we know Smooth for what he
can do off the field because he's been like that.
I came home from that visit with those guys in
the Playball American and I told him. I was like, hey, look, man,
I met the guy Fred Smooth that that corner everybody
talk about Muskey TV. I say, Munkey TV. That dude
(14:14):
had us in tears the whole trip. And it's like
he's been the same guy, but not only that, he
backed it up like the whole year.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
I seen you.
Speaker 6 (14:21):
I was watching ESPN IS to see his highlights, like
he was locking people up, so you know what I mean,
Like that's what you're playing.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
I hated your eyes this texted. I was like, really
you were like really.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Listen, you guys were both bars it's just it's funny
to hear, you know, you guys talk about each other
like when you first because you go way back because we.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Were so young.
Speaker 5 (14:43):
We were so young, so we time stamp by that time. Yea,
we was by that time.
Speaker 6 (14:49):
He had no we had no clue of what life
was going to be like after that.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
It's crazy to think about, like, sitting here right now
in this moment, Yeah, who's calling you looking for you?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (15:04):
An amazing journey if you think about it. But but
that's what sports takes you on. Sports is just more
than a ball game. You get you get guys that
you you're gonna cheer with the rest of your life.
They become family members you no doubt. And now think
about it. He was always known as the quiet one,
and I was always known as a talker.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Now he on TV talking just as so. So that
that's just how I think it is full circle.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
It's always the person who just don't give you all
what you want to hear is the choir. Folks who
know me know I've never Yeah, it's just I'm I'm
I'm an observer.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
But also there's a difference between talking amongst your friends.
Speaker 6 (15:38):
And yeah, yeah, I mean, I'm just everybody that, you
know what, you gotta get around me and be around
me long.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Enough, and then I'm like I can open up to them,
so you know.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
You, I mean, you're getting your deserved place in the
ring of family. And then we have a guy who's
probably gonna be there one day and term going like
he's finally he.
Speaker 5 (15:52):
He he, he chased, he played one game in the ring.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
He chases.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
What is mean to this office?
Speaker 2 (16:00):
I know it sounds like an obvious question, but there's
no question that he elevates everything.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
Yeah, it means a lot, I think. Man, I'm so
happy that they finally got that durn. You know, I
was one of those guys like like BC said the
other day, I was staying on all kinds.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
He was pushing networks.
Speaker 6 (16:15):
I was pushing push and I wasn't trying to be
one of those guys like pay them.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
You know.
Speaker 6 (16:19):
I was on both sides because I understand how it is.
As a player, you want to see your dude just
or you'll just do how you want to put it.
And then as a as a an organization, you gotta
think about down the road, you know what I mean?
You got to think about the guys that's gonna be
up next year. You got to think about your quarterback in
a couple of years.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
So I understand where they was.
Speaker 6 (16:36):
At when it comes to like, look here, we understand
what you you've done for us. We only throwing this
the number thirty out there in front of you just
to try to bring you down here and let's see
what we can do.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
We do respect who you are, and you're a bad man.
Speaker 6 (16:48):
So being that they finally got it done, I'm happy,
not for the sake of just he got his money,
but just for the sake of our team. I think
when you see Debo out there being able to put
in the preseason that he did, and just knowing what
could that look like with.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Terry out there, different types of different type of Like
it's easy to throw everyone in the same pot, but
Deebo is a Swiss arm and I.
Speaker 6 (17:10):
Couldn't see Debo be Debo without Terry together.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
It's a hell of a combination on the part.
Speaker 6 (17:18):
So that's why I wanted to see Terry because I
understand that regardless of how much people outside of this
region respect him, we know what he brings to the table.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
This team knows what he brings to the table.
Speaker 6 (17:29):
Number five know who he is, and so when him
on the field, he's gonna force, he's gonna move like look,
play him, play him crazy. If you want to give him,
give him a man a man, and see what him
A five.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Due to you.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
So I wanted that. I wanted that effect for our team.
I wanted to have that guy that you can say, look, man,
you know.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
What if we got what do we had Terry today?
Speaker 1 (17:49):
You know what I mean? I didn't want that. I
didn't want to go.
Speaker 6 (17:50):
Into the season, if you know what I mean. I
wanted to see the guy out there. And I'm glad.
That's why I said. I'm glad he got his money.
I'm glad he put it behind us. But I'm more
so happy because now our team get to be our team.
We get to really go out there, you know, with
everybody and say, Okay, this is what we're gonna I'm.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
Just glad because now we don't have to answer that
question for the fans, Like the fans were really coming
all over Jarring and I'm like, have you ever seen
a wife and a husband negotiating this thing?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Go back and forth? Like it just will not be easy.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
It's no such thing as an easy negotiation. All they
trying to do is meet in the middle.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
And all, like I say, is this.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
I was finally got handled and at least were not
the Dallas caboy. Look at what happened, And I'm so
happy for I'm so happy for Dallas.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Man happy for Dallas. I'm so damn happy.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
Lord, there's a guy you need a reason. He live.
Jeral Lo Live, jeral jaredy live for Hey boy, I'm
so happy for them, Jared, this is what they need.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Just told you how you do that? He just told him.
Mantley for nine thousand dollars. Listen, I am. I am
so happy.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
So that's the way negotiation can go, like easily, it
can go that way. So at the end of the day,
I'm happy Terry got it done because with him on
his offense, especially as a cornerback, looking at this group
and saying, how would I try to stop them individually?
I can't tell you how to because number five can
can change your ordinary play into a special play, and
(19:27):
he can change a good player into a special player.
He multiplies everything around you will Terry does the same
for the pass catchers.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
So what does it mean for a quarterback in San Chana?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
You know this when you have that chemistry, right, Like
I was using the example the other day on my
radio show, and I was talking about how you guys
tell stories about how you have chemistry with one another
developed to the point where you don't even have to
say anything.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Look, no, I need to look like it's not. Are
we seeing the same thing? Right? I ain't have that
look with all my quarterbacks.
Speaker 6 (19:56):
Don't ask me that I don't know what j can
I'm playing, but I tell you this.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
I tell you this.
Speaker 6 (20:02):
There's certain quarterbacks that I played with that I didn't
have the chemistry, but they just knew who to go
to see what I'm saying. So Mark ranell Or when
I was here, Todd Collins when I was here, Donovan
mcnow when I was Rex Grossman when I was here,
Kirk Cousins had that as a young guy.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Like certain quarterbacks say scrap what they call him. We're
eighty nine. Okay, he over there, alert eighty nine.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
Like I would lead a huddle, Mark say hey, I
need you backside be ready because he knew yeah that
touchdown catching Jacksonville.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
I was not in the progression, Mark said, I might
need you.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Really, he just too it was covered too.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Yeah, the route you see my route, it was lazy.
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Because I'm sitting there, I see the same you talk
the way you had to jump between these two people.
Right when I saw the safety, I already asked myself out.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
I said, well, I'm not getting this ball. Yeah, because
cover too. And that's what I'm saying, like when.
Speaker 6 (20:54):
You still like, I'm gonna put it up and down
quick enough because I know he gonna make a play.
So being the person I am, I'm not trying to
let you down. Let you down when I when I
look back and see the ball, I you know, I
got to say they coming down.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
He got to hit me in my face. I'm gonna
get that's me. You have to take a couple of dressing, y'all. Right,
y'all on me.
Speaker 6 (21:22):
So I'm gonna give you give it to one. But
that's what went through my mind. I say, screw it,
you know what, I gotta make this play. So that's
therese the quarterbacks that I always love playing with, the
ones that say this is the play. But I'm gonna
find the guy who's gonna make the play. I'm gonna
give him.
Speaker 5 (21:38):
And that's what well this I remember, who would I say,
had that which all right?
Speaker 1 (21:42):
All right?
Speaker 5 (21:42):
Because it's so weak. He used to let the ball
go so quick, and I think it gave you a view.
It's something about you, and I thought that. The more
I studied it, I was like, you know what, it's
because Todd, No, I gotta let it go now. And
that gives Tanner the most time he ever had with
a quarters porn raining. The last game of this we
playing the Cowboys. I literally slipped on the end route,
(22:05):
got up, ran the route, and the ball was already there.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Yeah. I just I basically caught it like I was
getting a handoff, like from a from the quarterbacks and
soft the ball.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
Yes, but he just knew like I'm throwing it to
him because regardless what happens through his route, he's going
to make the play.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
And that's what you need in a quarterback.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
And that's why what you saw last year and last
year you saw Jaden show the world that we were
talking about we need more receivers.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
And then then we sitting here, two of these guys
just got paid. Two of them got paid. You see
what I'm saying because of what Jayden was able to
do with smoke the ply, that's what you need.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Let me ask you this, and I think it's pretty
I think it's pretty common knowledge amongst football fans that
if you had had a consistent quarterback with you, you're
a Hall of Famer.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Like you're right there.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
I mean, when you look at the numbers, arguably you
can say I am without that.
Speaker 6 (22:51):
You know, it's guys, guy, But I understand how it goes,
you know, I mean politicking in there, yes, for sure.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
But if you were Tererry, what does it mean now?
Because he kind of went through that, I know that
comparison has been made between you and Tray. Like early
on he hasn't had a quarterback to throw to him,
But now I think.
Speaker 6 (23:09):
His trajectory is a little different. By the time Terry finished,
he should be a Hall of Famer. I think right now,
by the time he finished with his career, probably be
the greatest Redskin or commanders ever. Thinking that, I mean,
he's on that trajectory.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
He's on that path.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
I think if you look at him, this first year
is the only year he didn't have a thousand yards
and he had nine hundred and every year after he
even had a.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Thousand and last year was the first time everyone took notice.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
But last year that was the first time he got
double digit what touchdowns?
Speaker 5 (23:37):
And yeah, then he got the playoff game. So it's
the difference to the playoff games too.
Speaker 6 (23:42):
Like when you think about it, Look, they just had
a list go out of guys who should be up
for the Hall of Fame. Yeah, they had Joy, they
had Jody Edelman in there, and they had Juli whatever I.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Said, Jody right, Julie And.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
Oh if you look at that yards, that's seven hundred
and seven hundred seven, seven thousand and seven thousand. But
the reason why I bring that up is because they've
played so much in the postseason that so wether recognition.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
That's where it starts. Like you think about Linn, the.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Spotlight comes in, that's.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Look at look at his yard.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
It's because those Super Bowl but he won Super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (24:16):
So you get a guy like myself scratching your head like, what, okay.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
My numbers is there? Why are they get more attention?
Why I never got that. No, it's because they played
on the spotlight. Yeah, you know what I mean. And
when I was in New York, I had those games.
Speaker 6 (24:29):
I had those spotlight games three out of my four
seasons there were in the postseason. Threw them those numbers
as a number two, and then then I later you know,
became a starter. So that's all it's about. Man, It's
about seeing yourself on that big stage. How many times
after he's he's performed on the big stage. When you
look at our big stage, our big stage as being
most of our you know, divisional games, you know the Cowboys,
(24:51):
the Eagles, you know what I mean, John, some of
the playoff games that we have playing in. Yeah, I performed,
but it wasn't a lot of them.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Yep.
Speaker 5 (24:58):
Well it go the numbers right here, tear right now,
you're sitting at sitting at six thousand, three hundred and
seventy nine yards.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
We're sitting at the three seventy nine.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
They put him one hundred and thirteen yards behind Bobby
Mitchell at number five. They put him fourteen eighty eight
behind Santana Moss at number four, with seven thousand, eight
hundred and sixty seven Gary Clark at number three, making
him two thousand, three hundred yards away from Gary. Charlie Taylor,
who people don't get his Roughs charge ball up went
(25:26):
nine thousand and eleven yards all right, and Terry's two thousand,
seven hundred away from it. And at number one with
two I mean twelve thousand yards is Art Martin and
he five thousand, six hundred and forty seven yards. Wave Martha,
you be the guy.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
By the time you done well, you're right out there.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
So we gotta we gotta move to a segment where
we do lists, and Anna does this and it is here.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
By the way, give it up for producer Anna.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Yeah, and Ana b Obama, but Nana fan of Odfana.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Ain't doing na I'm good, Thank you are monster point
right now, we're doing great job on the show ride
of Boss.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
I'm trying to I'm trying to stay focused, but it's
it's difficult rushing.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Also, let's tell you about Sege and then we're gonna
do lists because and it does this just pay them bills.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
She does this to annoy you.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Yes, I totally understand. Pay them bills.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Guys.
Speaker 2 (26:12):

Ken Lamar Beyon said, no wish postboy Carter, No, No,
I did not have on cowboy boots.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Check it out, but I won a uniform. You didn't
go with the hat on who can get it? Couldn't
do it? Well? I guess what.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
All the women in the d n B had cowboy

I appreciate them for participating. Hey listen, I just they
came ready. I was the kids, Lamar cause myself.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Oh well, that was a good one.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Not like us.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Now time out for it's still this season because it's
right before the game agains a giant.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
So Top three players to watch for Washington this season.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
Top three players three we got they could be on
the same side of the ball, they could do whatever.
Just top three well, everything startsing in with a Jedi.
Everything starts and in with Jedi five. Let's start there,
Jane Daniels, All right, y'all gonna be shocked about this
next one because everything ain't about to glitzen the glamor
some stuff about nasty people doing.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Right.
Speaker 5 (27:35):
So I'm going Laramie tumpson number two, the big Barracuda,
somebody that part of the Divine Swine offensive line. I'm
saying Laromie tumpson because last time we won Super Bowls
it was because of the offensive line the Hawks and
that defensive line with Destra Man and Child's Man.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Right after that, the third person, I'm gonna go, I
ain't gonna do that.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
The third person, I'm gonna go, hell Capy ten Bobby
Whagno starts with Babby Bobby wag on the defense. So
this's Jedi five, larreonmy tomsaon Bobby wagged No.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
I like that lineup.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
That's pretty sorry.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
What do you think? Well, he took one of my guys.
We do this.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
He always taking somebody. I mean, he actually saw my
piece of paper, that's what Now I'm lying? So what
I say since he already gave Jayden their knowledge. I'm
gonna say, one of those receivers got to stand out.
It's gonna need to be Terry or Debo. I'm gonna
say Terry regardless of what he went through this off season.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
You get a guy in that situation, he's gonna show
you how grateful he is. He's gonna come out here.
And one of the things about Terry he treats everything
like a business. So he's gonna be ready, He's gonna
be prepared.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (28:46):
So I'm gonna say Terry offensively. On the defensive side,
I'm gonna say, Kwan, you don't understand what I see
in his number twenty.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
He in a Pro Bowl. Molde right, something about this guy?
He got that air reading them.
Speaker 6 (28:57):
Man, Yo, he almost pertold rat now walking into the building.
He just have you know, one of the things that
I love to see in a football player. We look
at the abilding, you know, athletic sism. We look at
the guys that fly around that pass that test.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
I like to see this. You see it.
Speaker 6 (29:15):
You can see the mental boy. How he shows everything
slow down, what he's doing in certain plays.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
How is he he could absolutely see the developments bingo.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
So when you see a guy that's like, wow, how
do you make that play? Because he's.
Speaker 6 (29:28):
Tools, he has the knowledge because he's studying, he's he's
doing the things behind the scenes.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
That was a great big right there. So I got
kwan from my second guy and.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
Third he took wagon in which I told you he
took to of my But I'm gonna say the guy
who we all see right now, this vision of this
guy has been in our head since the NFC Championship
game and he's been flying over the top of the
Eagles line. I'm gonna say, Frankie, I.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Don't know if there's a player who plays like a
maniac boy man, I mean.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
Hair on fire, that's what you want. Energy, intenseness and
serious about his job. There was you want the one
thing about linebackers. You want them to be the swap paint.
I don't care if you're with an office lineman, running back, quarterback,
it don't matter.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Frankie Louver going in head first.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Let me ask you, why is it that Frankie Louver
is I feel like, personally is criminally underrated, like across
the league.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
Like this guy is an absolute this year they finally
started to get him problem.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Final Well, guess what he was in Pugatory. He was
in Carolina. Carolina.
Speaker 5 (30:31):
And when you're in a losing situation, you see it
happen all the time where losing teams do not get votes.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
You don't get Pro Bowl votes, you don't get none
of that.
Speaker 5 (30:39):
Like your market know you good, they appreciate you, but
you're not gonna get appreciated with the rest of the guys.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Until you get those playoff games. Come on.
Speaker 5 (30:48):
When we when we was in the league NFC East,
Philadelphia was running stuff with McNabb and the Reid So
guess what me and Chap was doing everything that Bobby
Taylor and Troy Vincon was doing.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
But they playing playoff games and they win.
Speaker 5 (31:02):
They tried to play for Super Bowls, were going fishing
when January started.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
It's different speaking of that. That's just like what we
were talking about.
Speaker 6 (31:09):
When I had my second Pro Bowl season, which was
the outright season, I didn't get it, but I was
fourth in our division, which that's a shoe in. I
didn't get a vote, did you not? We was we
didn't have a good team, Yeah, didn't get a vote.
It was a lot of other stuff. I think that
that happened earlier that year that led to that not
me getting a vote. But that's what happens sometimes. So
you don't get the recognition because of your team just sucks.
(31:31):
So when you got a guy like Frankie when he
came over, I think when he came over to us,
that was the first time everybody like kind of paid
attention to that market. Yeah, and then he then he
then he showed up. So it's one thing of being saying,
all right, we're gonna watch this guy. But he came
here with his head on fire man. Every week you
saw something from this guy. So I think when you
look at the top one hundred players, he was he
was up there. Yeah, So that's when that's when now
(31:53):
the league has noticed. You know, now now he's that
guy in the league that everybody you can't He's not
gonna surprise nobody, no more.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Right, you knew who I can't to watch and I
love him in college is Mikey Sanrius. Oh yeah, and
I going back to slot corner where he belongs. I
know he's kind of bounced around last night. He can
play wherever you need him to.
Speaker 5 (32:09):
That's what all these Coners can do Jason Jones, all
these guys whereever they need to fill in that week,
that's where they're gonna fill in there.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
And I'm gonna tell this crowd now, y'all gonna love
Trey Amis Now.
Speaker 5 (32:18):
The one thing about it is, y'all don't love no
conerback every day Like some days y'all like us, some
days you hate us. I promise you y'all would like
these two youngsters we got more days than you hate them.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
They they're talented guys, and they're fearless.
Speaker 5 (32:32):
They're fearless because they'll walk on the line of scrimmage
with anybody they don't care.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
So let's get ready for the New York Football Giants.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
All right, all right, all right, it's k one Russell Wilson.
Russell Wilson. That's right.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
Remember last time we were here and there was a
dude in the back in the jest, what about the
children kicked Hi out of me?
Speaker 5 (32:57):
Listen, man, listen, I will say this about your Oh
my god, that might be the best defensive front that
we face all and we're gonna have to.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Say we have to play them twice.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
You're talking about the names out there waiting Dexter, Lawrence Tripple,
do who the Yorkster?
Speaker 5 (33:14):
They just got Carter right, and then we got Brian Burns.
Like you talking about, can't nobody get help the game.
Everybody gonna have to be every man himself on that
offensive life. Like listen, I know how I feel. But
luckily they got Russell Wilson their quarterback. Look, you gotta
(33:37):
come with a game plan.
Speaker 6 (33:38):
Yeah, the game plan has to be I'm finna, I'm
gonna set the tone with them.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
I'm not letting them peel that peel their ears back
and say I'm finna get out to this quarterback. You
gotta go down here with you gotta run at him.
Speaker 6 (33:49):
You gotta run at him, run at the Paris run
to get them off of what they want to do,
specially they know how special they are befront after getting
out to the quarterback. But at the same time too,
when you have a quarterback that we have, Yeah, they
gonna also know that we can't we can't.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Don't break your language. Terry gonna gone.
Speaker 6 (34:04):
But I still feel like we have to be one
of those aggressives guys when I mean or more teams
when it comes to just saying, look, we gotta we
gotta attack what they do best. You know what I'm saying,
Slow them down, get them tied in. They say, okay,
now we can do what we want to do.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Let me ask you this because a lot of people
have said, which I disagree with this, but it's hey,
sophomore stuff.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Look what happened to CJ. Strapp? Why does that not
happen to Jay Dades?
Speaker 6 (34:26):
Well?
Speaker 5 (34:26):
First of all, the offensive line got better, all right,
So the protection is two times better than it was
last year. Two, it's slowing down in JD five head too,
because he just got a here and put it behind him.
Two of three, CJ. Scrowd is really a true pocket passer.
I gotta beat you with the fifth element, that's his legs.
So have they stopped Lamar Jackson from running yet? Have
(34:47):
they stopped Josh Allen from running yet? Have they stopped
Josh Allen from throwing? So they ain't gonna stop him
from throwing. So that just the way it goes. Some
weapons cannot be stopped. They can be slowed down, but
they cannot be stopped. And I got the only Achilles
here Josh Allen had was he would turn the ball
over I got is clean with the football, making him
even harder to stop. Precision passer understands coverages. No, you
(35:10):
don't slow him down. It's a tornado. You try to
get out his way, but you'll never slow it down.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Might drop.
Speaker 6 (35:16):
Yeah, I mean, I mean, I don't have to say
much more. I mean, the thing that I noticed about
what was going on in in in Texas with the
quarterback situation is he couldn't he couldn't escape the party. Yeah,
you know, and that's one of the things that showed
up big and anytime you see a quarterback, you know,
that's the first thing that kind of had me scratching
my head about Jaden Dais because it was it was
(35:39):
it was more hooplab about how good he was with
his legs than he was when he when he came
out of college. If you didn't watch him, you would
have thought he was just a guy that could run, yeah,
until you really I watched a couple of games in college.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
In the air, So when it came down to watching.
Speaker 6 (35:59):
Him really on the NFL setting and see him play
amongst those kinds of guys, I'm like, well, this guy's
beating you with his with his with in his mind,
with here and his arm, and then when he needs
to get out of dodge gett a danger, I'm gonna
use these legs.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
That's the difference.
Speaker 6 (36:14):
When you see him in Stroud, that's the difference. Shroud
can't escape. Yeah, he has to beat your You're not
open he's doing. He need clean blocking, you need clean protection.
Speaker 5 (36:22):
My guy really gets a jiggy when things break down,
like where where's the where's the low game?
Speaker 1 (36:29):
You hope you don't get out to him too fast.
You you play, you pray that you.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
Step back and see where Sometimes you almost don't want
break down.
Speaker 5 (36:39):
No, No, it's called a sugar rush where they rushed
three of us up the field, the deepest man and
they just stopped. They stopped because if they rush too far,
he's gonna take off his run with in the alley
prime example, NFC Championship game, do you remember our last
fumble that we recovered and they said that it's still
went the other way. Yeah, we was only down by
(36:59):
eleven driving finished score and at that point they stopped.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
They shot rushing and he was killing them. Yeah, he
was killing them from the pocket with everybody in coverage.
So when you have a guy that can do that. Man,
you're in trouble. This guy you can't. He can't be defeated.
You don't have an answer for what he does best.
Speaker 6 (37:16):
And if you bring a guy to he gonna outrun
the guy that's sitting back there waiting on him.
Speaker 1 (37:21):
So that's what he has. Man, I think he has.
He has a superpower that a lot of guys wish
they had a.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Triple threat when you look at the receiving corps and
one guy that we don't talk about I think enough
at least to my opinion, is zach Ertz. That's great
last season, and we keep hearing that during training camp,
like he's formed a real He already has that connection
with Terry mccorrin, but obviously JD five and zach Ertz
are gonna be crucial to I think.
Speaker 5 (37:43):
I think we talk about him. He's part of the
Holy Trinity, you know, zach Ertz. You know Terry McLain and.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
The Father, the Son and zach Ertz, the Sun, the
Moon and the Earth, third rock from the Sun.
Speaker 5 (37:57):
Like at the end of the day, we talk about
this man, he's just safety valve for him, Like tight
end is always gonna get you out of trouble. And
what was his other numbers, twenty four and twenty four
in and that that playoff run like never missing the ball,
like when you could throw it to somebody like that,
even when that cupboard way to give him that energy.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
It's fun. It's gonna be fun right now.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
But when you have that type of safety valve that
what we did look up with that we none of
us thought we were gonna do, was he was gonna
play all seventeen regular season games. He stayed healthy last year,
and I think this is a testament to coach Quinn
and him knowing how to handle veteran in older players.
So the thing we have to wish for when it
comes to zach Ertz healthy again because if he's healthy,
(38:39):
he gonna produce that thing.
Speaker 6 (38:41):
Also, with that being said, just having the other guys
to be able to, you know, spell him every now
and then you know, having a guy like tell him
you got talent. Now you have a guy in Baits
who last year showed everybody there you know what he
was worth.
Speaker 1 (38:54):
When he came to this hotel bab.
Speaker 6 (38:56):
We've been seeing that for the last few years in
base but last year was the year that he stamped it.
And I think that comes to just the development of him.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
And he's been crushing due to the priest saying and
then and and you.
Speaker 6 (39:06):
Saw a lot of what he did, what he was
able to do in the blocking scheme of things. But
I think he's a guy now. You can, you know,
see him a little more in the pass. He can
run and he can catch one of the you never
know where whenever we get you know, Ben Sentate ready
man whenever he because you got to think.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
About it, everybody want to see this guy be the
guy right now.
Speaker 6 (39:24):
It takes time, sometime two or three years, different time
for different players.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Different for different folks.
Speaker 6 (39:29):
So I think the core tight ends that we have
along with with zach Man, they're gonna be ready in
prime to go and they're gonna be able to spell
them when we need to give him his rest.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
How is this running back room gonna shake out? Because
I know that Bill Doll, I mean he has that burst.
He's violence.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (39:48):
I mean the only reason he.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
Wasn't drafted suitors because he played one game, because because
of suspension.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
We find a diamond in the rough with not a
let of tread on the ties. Come on, we all
in here. When Bottle used cod got home toll out
home boy.
Speaker 6 (40:00):
You know, hey, hey, this thing ain't got a twenty
thousand on my last new college. What I'm talking four
hundred dollars, Dukes of the Savory. That's what you did,
like four hundred dollars and that's what broke down.
Speaker 1 (40:14):
That's what we found. We found a deal.
Speaker 5 (40:17):
And now I think what they're gonna do though, I
think they're gonna they're gonna divvy up the carries very good.
So you don't know how we attacking them. Now that
Bill brings speed, puts power plus a way to get
through the hole when he comes in the office, you
don't know.
Speaker 1 (40:31):
What we're gonna do.
Speaker 5 (40:31):
Because he can actually catch the ball at the backfield.
So none of our backs undresses the offense. None of
our backs say all right, well they ain't passing the ball,
like well, he can't pass blocker this or that. All
of them can do everything just good enough for the office,
can do everything. I think, who's really who's really just
sliding at the mouth right now? It's Cliff Kings bad
because he can unleash the hole because of the offensive line,
(40:54):
because last year, we kept tight ends in the line,
We kept the backs in to help block a lot
and chip.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
He ain't gonna have to do that.
Speaker 3 (41:00):
Young people were like, why is he open up the playbook.
I'm like, he's got a rookie quarterback in game too.
Speaker 5 (41:04):
And he got an offensive line that needs a little
help from time to time. But now that you got
Laron me toss over there, you have to chip it off. Hey,
I don't think you got chips and deps. You do
that at home right during the game.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
We ain't gonna do no chippings.
Speaker 5 (41:16):
It gonna be man, it gonna be one man can
take this guy with and we need to double team
on the other side.
Speaker 1 (41:21):
We can do that.
Speaker 5 (41:22):
So if anybody gonna be unlocked this year besides JD five,
it's gonna be Cliff Kingsby.
Speaker 3 (41:28):
Let's go to the defensive side of the football.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
And I know they added von Miller, maybe not in
his pind but even last year, and it put this
in the run A great job.
Speaker 3 (41:34):
Anna bobs up seven nothing as we speak.
Speaker 2 (41:36):
But no one got off the ball quick last season
off von Miller last season even as a vet.
Speaker 6 (41:42):
Yeah, most definitely, I think I gave the chickens. Yeah,
he raised, he raised chicken. He chasing anybody gotta chase chicken.
Speaker 1 (41:50):
I don't know if you ever chased one, but I'm
from I'm from We chased chicken. We chased chickens.
Speaker 6 (41:57):
Yes, so no, that's that's actually an art. So we
don't be surprised when you got fast guys coming from Florida.
Speaker 1 (42:06):
And that's why we feel like Rocky, you know what
I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (42:09):
It happens, But I just think his get off is
gonna it's helping him to age twelve if they pass rush.
And the fact that he's not just a sacker. He's
a sex script, force fumble guy, like he's going for
the try fecta every time he gets his hole on you.
But don't worry about von Miller. Just like JD five
is the force multiply on offense, von Miller is a
(42:31):
force smote topply on defense.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
He's gonna make sure Frankie Lufu rushing from the other
side not getting double team.
Speaker 5 (42:38):
He gonna make sure that Ken Law and Johnny Newton
all getting one on ones.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
In the middle their sack total goes up.
Speaker 5 (42:46):
Maybe he'll stay at six or seven, But what about
the other guy that got seal and the other guy
that got said, and it starts to be a group
effort in it all, he's the catalyst for it.
Speaker 6 (42:54):
I think one of the things that stands out about
what you see on our defensive side of the ball,
when you at a guy like von Miller, like he
just spoke, he just spoke on, that opens up everything
else for everybody else, because when one guy get more
attention or you have to double team one, then you
got a guy that you got a guy in the
middle that needs to be you know, dealt with in
kin law, you have a guy in the middle that
needs to be dealt with our young guys, you know
(43:17):
what I mean.
Speaker 1 (43:17):
And then not only that, you got a guy in
Louis who we have a different.
Speaker 6 (43:19):
Role that I don't know how they gonna stop him
from from blissing coming down hill. You know, he he
finds the way every time. So you know, when you
have that kind of when you have those kind of
guys on your team period offensively, defensively, special team wise,
it just set things up to be one of those
things that we're gonna always be in the seat of
dictating everything. You know what I mean, yeah, we have
(43:40):
that special because I've been on teams where we went
in there with like what we.
Speaker 1 (43:44):
Got, let's just take that.
Speaker 6 (43:45):
We gotta take their pun. We got to hope so
that we we gotta we gotta beig. But don't bring
trying to get to the fourth course. Now we the
one coming dictating change what you got going on?
Speaker 1 (43:55):
We bringing it to you.
Speaker 6 (43:56):
You know what I mean offensively and defensive, but especially defensively.
You see the key pieces that we have.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
What does it mean when you have a veteran Because
even Javon kill I was saying, like I look over
and I see von Miller like popping off the football,
Like immediately it inspires me, like I'm trying to get
to that level like he sees it.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
When you have a veteran, I know you experienced it.
Speaker 1 (44:15):
Wait, he gonna think about it. You got him and
Wagner's telling the defense follow us.
Speaker 5 (44:21):
We know the trail up to the super Bowl, we
know where it ends at, we know how to get there,
and we know how to finish it.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
Like when you got two guys like that on two different.
Speaker 5 (44:30):
Levels of your defense, it changes everything. It changes how
you go about your beatings. It changes what's acceptible and
what's not acceptable. So it's just a different floor. And
I'm worried about the ceiling.
Speaker 1 (44:43):
The floor is high. I know Michael Jordan said that
the floor is high.
Speaker 3 (44:47):
What was Jordan's saying back then? Man?
Speaker 6 (44:49):
He was A.
Speaker 1 (44:52):
And You're like, I think we're going to We're coming
to you all, we come to Anna.
Speaker 3 (44:56):
All right, let's go. Well, I think it's time we're going.
Speaker 2 (44:59):
To do Q and A.
Speaker 3 (45:00):
Okay, Well, does anyone happened here?
Speaker 1 (45:03):
Have questions?
Speaker 3 (45:04):
If not, we can skip forward.
Speaker 1 (45:06):
But if anyone has any questions for fred Or I
know there was kind of light. I know her voice
is kind of light. It doesn't carry.
Speaker 5 (45:13):
Do y'all have any questions? Y'all want to ask me
Jinks or Santana. It can be pretty much anything. Do
you want them to come up and have them?
Speaker 1 (45:22):
Y'all got someone in the back, We have someone in
the back. The toughest opponent.
Speaker 5 (45:28):
I think the toughest opponent is gonna have to be
the person that won the Super Bowl last year.
Speaker 1 (45:32):
They ain't not the Vision. It's the Philadelphia Eagles.
Speaker 5 (45:35):
But I would say besides them, because that's a that's
a rivalry game. So throw that out, I would say,
the Kansas City Chiefs, I say, that's the game.
Speaker 1 (45:44):
No, no, be quiet, you we gotta spinet. She didn't
told on herself over there? You you got, you got caught?
Oh man, yay? Anybody else what you got? Who got?
(46:11):
I stand up? Talk to us? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, okay,
what I call it? No, thank you?
Speaker 6 (46:23):
I think my my favorite game of my career, my
favorite game of my career, That's what I'm saying. So
you guys, I appreciate the love for the Cowboy game
because I understand what it means. You know, I understand
that playing the Cowboys was like a super Bowl game
for people who was Redskin and Commanders fan.
Speaker 1 (46:40):
So I understand it. I get it now. I'm not tripping.
But as a player, we did I did nothing.
Speaker 6 (46:45):
The team did nothing into those last couple of two minutes,
So you don't get yourself a penning them back. Now.
I did appreciate it. I appreciate that flight home because boy,
we were parting. We're talking about drinking and playing cards.
Speaker 1 (46:57):
Boy, hey we didn't sleep.
Speaker 6 (47:00):
But I would say my favorite game of my career,
favorite of my career was the Jacksonville game in six
the three touchdowns, and that same year in five the
Christmas Eve game against the Giants with three touchdowns. Those
two stand down, no my two favorite games. Great question,
that question, great question.
Speaker 5 (47:18):
What you got, Doug.
Speaker 7 (47:19):
Were no question, great question, great question.
Speaker 5 (47:35):
Let's start with those bleacher creatures from phil and Death.
They showed us what we were slacking it, and all right,
the question was where we stand up?
Speaker 1 (47:46):
Where did we stand up?
Speaker 5 (47:48):
And against the Eagles when it comes to the team
that we have now and Terry McLaurin, all right, we
are on pace with them because last year we saw
the NFC Championship game, they were just bigger in us.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
They pushed us around, they beat us up in the trenches.
So what did we do? We went got Ken Lack,
who was like six five, three forty.
Speaker 5 (48:08):
Pounds, first man off the bus, lamb at Thompson right,
moving Cole into guard. Got bigger like Sam Co's be
in there. We drafted the first round of Conny. We
got bigger. We went got dt Wise, we got bigger.
We got our eye black in the in the alley
last year when we were ready to go back and
fight in that same alley this year, and we brought
some size with us. They lost more players than we gained.
(48:30):
We gain more players than they lost. I think we
got a chance with them. Plus I feel like our
quarterback is better than theirs.
Speaker 1 (48:36):
Yeah, I like fred take on it.
Speaker 6 (48:38):
I think I think personally to me, you know, regardless
of how big they were, we saw those same guys
when we beat them at home, and I think the
only thing that we didn't do in that an Unsea
Championship game is just show up.
Speaker 1 (48:49):
You know.
Speaker 6 (48:49):
We had a lot of guys that just you know,
fell short of what that game was, you know, was
meant to be as players. You you lived to be
on that stage, and a lot of guys didn't show.
Speaker 1 (49:00):
Up, you know what I mean.
Speaker 6 (49:01):
So so to me, if you ask me we can
play with anybody, you've got to show up. You got
to hit a guy in them out. And that's what
I was always about. Look, man, I'm gonna bring it
to you before you bring it to me. Let's show
you what type of dead is. And I think that's
what they did to us when that guy, when when
Sa Kuan got that ball in his hand and went
and hit the left side line and scored on us.
Speaker 5 (49:20):
I'm talking about the first player to g I knew
it was gonna be a long win for us, and
then our team double down and front with the ball
every time they got it, So that that's what showed
me that we just won't ready for the moment we
let them out the hook bingo they win with them,
you know.
Speaker 1 (49:34):
So I just feel like we gotta show up. Man.
Speaker 6 (49:36):
I don't think it's about even I mean, I love
the fact that we did go out there and get
those key players, but bigger, no, big man, we could
we could play with. Anybody's got to show up, all right.
We got more questions, any more questions?
Speaker 1 (49:46):
All Right, what you got?
Speaker 3 (49:48):
Okay, So I'm still.
Speaker 1 (49:51):
All right. I got you. We're gonna take it easy
on you. All good. I've been.
Speaker 2 (49:58):
Keep telling me.
Speaker 1 (50:03):
Yeah, it.
Speaker 5 (50:07):
Means something players. It means something to the players at
the bottom of the roster.
Speaker 1 (50:11):
It made something.
Speaker 5 (50:12):
It's for the players that didn't get drafted high they
wanted to. It's made for the players that turn into
London Fletcher they end up being a yellow jacket. It's
important for a lot of players that get overlooked because
it's so easy to get overlooked in the draft process.
You gotta realize it's five thousand plus of us coming
out every year looking for the same job that Bruce
Smilth won't lead because he's been there for seventeen years
(50:35):
a matter to try to be a cornerback and dal.
Speaker 1 (50:37):
Green been there for twenty forty years.
Speaker 5 (50:39):
Right, So in five thousand, like three thousand, people don't
get turned down every year like this job ain't for you,
and they gonna keep on coming. So that preseason counts, right,
because we only good as the fifty third person on
our roster, and so many times the players that's taking
lower become better than the players that's taking higher.
Speaker 1 (50:57):
It happened all the time. So what he's saying is
BA is yeah, so your friend was kind of right.
Speaker 6 (51:03):
We don't necessarily go into that game saying we need
to win the Super Bowl, but we going to that
game that say that we want to get good reps.
I remember being out there in the coach say, look,
the guys that's going to play, who I'm expecting to
see on week one that's gonna be my starters. Give
me whatever many reps I got you in the game.
I want to see good stuff on tape. And then
now the guys that come in behind show me you
(51:24):
deserve to be on this team.
Speaker 1 (51:25):
See what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (51:26):
So whether you win, lose, or draw, you want to
put good stuff on tape and then we can kind
of build from there. Every week it's gonna be a
new week for you to get better. And then by
the time the season start, we should be ready to go.
You got a question, all right, what you got?
Speaker 1 (51:41):
Okay? Okay? Did I dread plan? Who I hated? Good question? Well,
we ain't really dread.
Speaker 5 (51:52):
Playing anybody, but sometime if you know you're going to
play Green Bay in this December and it's three below
y'all sitting in y'all living room talking about look out
South Thade.
Speaker 1 (52:03):
We out here some tights and le Tarz been playing.
And I can tell you what.
Speaker 5 (52:08):
Really hurt doing those cold games, not getting hit a
hidden because I think as you go you warm up,
it's whining, like somebody step on your toe and they
got in they clicks and you just hear your toe
busts in your head. You're like, oh my god, I
ain't gonna even made a shy out of the game.
So I think it's the cold weather games. And I
(52:30):
hated playing in Pittsburgh because it's already's dark and dingy.
Speaker 1 (52:37):
It's all. It's always great gloomy. It's always gloomy. I'd
be like, do the sun is it Picksburg? Ever? Pittsburgh
for me?
Speaker 6 (52:50):
So so I'm gonna tell you all this, y'all gonna
y'all gonna scratch your head with this one.
Speaker 1 (52:54):
It wasn't a game that I that I didn't like,
the cared about. It was the other me, because you
hate the I hate. But more so the the cold
wasn't nothing because I got used to for being in
New York and here it was rain.
Speaker 6 (53:10):
When it rained outside, I wanted to get in a
cocoon and somewhere and hide myself. Like I hated playing
in the rain. And as a receiver, we play with gloves.
I don't play with gloves for the simple fact that
they look cool. I'm trying to slow that ball down.
And the reason sometimes why you have fingers that look
like these is because the ball them broke.
Speaker 1 (53:33):
The ball done broke so many in my fingers.
Speaker 6 (53:35):
It's impossible to catch the ball with glove song And
it's wet outside, So like I dreaded, I dreaded playing
in the rain, But I.
Speaker 1 (53:45):
Did like the snow games. George were making snow angels
and all kinds of stuff like it was just the
rain for me. Great question, That was a great question.
What you got. Yeah, they're gonna be tough.
Speaker 6 (54:03):
I never just tell him, ud they always get. They
always gave us a hard time regards something.
Speaker 1 (54:08):
About them when it comes to us. I don't care.
Speaker 5 (54:11):
The one thing I'm happy about domn how you boy
oh talking about Daniel Daniel Jones at least found.
Speaker 1 (54:18):
Us every day.
Speaker 5 (54:19):
He'll be a Pro Bowl, be a Hall of Famer.
Yeah yeah, he beat our ass last year. Yeah yeah,
(54:40):
listen here, we don't feel sorry for Russell. We're gonna
Russell to go through all the bad stuff he's going through.
Speaker 1 (54:46):
It's our time.
Speaker 5 (54:49):
No, no, we won't overlook them, all right. We would
never overlook the Giants. Let's be honest. The Giants and
had our numbers the last twenty five years. It don't
matter who being quarterbacking. Think the Beato beat us one year,
Temmy Cutlets beat us. So we don't overlook them, and
we damn sure not gonna overlook them. With that defensive
line they got and they got some young talent when
(55:10):
Lena was one of the best wide receivers in football
right now. They got talent there and Jackson Dark when
they finally decided to play him, he could play.
Speaker 1 (55:18):
Plus, they got Jamis on that never never doubt Jameis Winston.
I got neighbors on my fantasy team, tam Please, Lord,
