what do you mean? What do we do? Pete? How
many Super Bowls have you covered? Now? Thirty six all
in a row?

Speaker 3 (03:07):
Favorite rank super Bowl cities for you from worst to
best that you've.

Speaker 5 (03:13):
Brady loves this one. I like it.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
I like this one too because it's all right here.
I like convenience, the convenience of it. No, it's not
look this, look it's it's easy. Vegas was great. I
thought Vegas was fantastic. Like Vegas, I think I think
they'll go back to walk though. But yeah, a lot
of walking, but a lot of walking here too. But
I like Vegas. I like everything that's right there. When
you can just walk out of bed and go do
your stuff. You know, I don't want to be traveling

(03:37):
in it.

Speaker 5 (03:38):
You know.

Speaker 4 (03:39):
Atlanta's good, Minnesota was good, it's just freezing. Let's say,
what's gonna be fun? Is Nashville once that stadium istime
the worst and I'm gonna say the worst super Bowl
city of all time and it's not even close.

Speaker 5 (03:48):
No, Jacksonville, jackson was by far the worst. I lived there.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
It was horrible. Spread out, it's spread out, but they
weren't ready for it. So think about this. They didn't
even have enough hotel rooms back then. They had to
bring cruise ships in so people stayed on.

Speaker 5 (04:02):
I remember that, Yeah, I remember that. Yeah, it was
they just awarded it for they loved the owner.

Speaker 4 (04:09):
They gave them a super Bowl. It should never have
been there ever, and so that was the worst one. Wow,
I guess, I mean, gosh, how many Super Bowls this
for you to just thirty six? The first one I
did was here, right, it was. It's how long ago
it was. It was fifty five to ten thirty six,
and you know what, and you know what they they
were screaming in the locker room. We got the speed

(04:30):
limit because back then the speed limit was fifty five.
It wasn't sixty five. That's how long you know what
Radio Row was back then. I was just gonna ask you,
how different is this setup? Is everything around, like even
what you're asked to do for your job versus what
it was back then. Yeah, oh, it's definitely different. But
Radio Row was it. That super Dome is right there,
and then they had the Hightt Hotel was right there.

(04:50):
Radio Row was like in the down below, the one
level below the lobby, and there were like three or
four radio stations there.

Speaker 5 (04:56):
I'm not kidding. There was of this. That's it. Nobody
came it was.

Speaker 4 (05:00):
It was like nothing like this, and everybody would go
to the team hotels and do their interviews and you.

Speaker 5 (05:06):
Wrote, we didn't have Oh okay, that's a long time.
But yeah, thirty six years in a row and I
made somebody let us know.

Speaker 4 (05:14):
I might have By the way, by the way, I
might have one of the longest dreams going now any consecute, right,
you know why because COVID nobody few guys who were
on a streak made COVID Super.

Speaker 5 (05:26):
Bowl, but we did. You weren't scared? Was trying to Tampa? Yeah,
there was, it was. There was about forty people that
you had to sit like a part and it was
like an exhibition game.

Speaker 7 (05:35):
Well you quarantined for that Super Bowlah, yeah, you followed
the rules of quarantine. I can't speak for everyone else,
but like some people out there, had a great week
of golf.

Speaker 5 (05:44):
All kinds of things going on there.

Speaker 4 (05:46):
So yeah, you lived it up, didn't you. Hell yeah, Yeah,
you're Brady Quinn. You could do whatever you wanted. It's
not that Oh yes it is. I'm Brady Quinn and
you're not.

Speaker 5 (05:55):
So Pete.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
The best post super Bowl party or I guess super
week party you've been to since covering Super Bowls?

Speaker 5 (06:02):
Who threw a rager that you just tore it up at?

Speaker 4 (06:05):
Well, the NFL, I'll tell you where there was a rager. Uh,
there was a party at the Zoo in San Diego
for Lee Steinberg threw a party at the zoo.

Speaker 5 (06:13):
It's San Diego Zoo.

Speaker 4 (06:14):
He closed it down. That closed the zoo down, and
it was like Hollywood stars everywhere. And I brought my
wife was in town with me, and we went and
we might have drunk the damn thing dry. And I
actually I actually had tickets. I actually had tickets to
the Playboy party that night there, and it was just like,
what is happening?

Speaker 5 (06:34):
He just saw the phone acting like communicate to us,
like what's that gonna do? Clearly it's not doing anything right.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
We apologize for anybody listening though. There's just some technical
difficulties that are happening here at radio. We're up for
the super Bowl, because of course there is, of course
there is.

Speaker 5 (06:50):
We used to throw great parties after Friday night.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
It was called the Commissioner's Party, and if you guys
would think about this, they'd invite the media. But there
was like a different section that was closed off, and
it was like we were the farm animals and the
people behind they were like all the dignitaries and the
owners and everybody, and so there was like a gate
there and you'd walk around and to be you know,
it was a great party. It was like bands and everything,

(07:16):
but like we were like the freak show. Everybody got
to watch us walking in circles.

Speaker 5 (07:21):
The media is but I mean that party they eliminated that.
They got rid of that. Who were limited Roger the league?
That the league? But did it? Did it happen before?
And then when Roger got here, he just mixed it.
You know, they didn't need the media anymore. They used
to think they needed the media. They don't need the media.

Speaker 4 (07:35):
Well they say that, but then now they're trying to
sell their media company and that's a struggle, and then
they wanted.

Speaker 5 (07:40):
Then you know, I don't hold back, Yeah you don't.
You don't, Am I wrong? Like no, I was just
talking like, yeah, we get sold, all right, we'll see
a buzz. Let's talk about this game. Are we on
air at this point? Gonna come back? Mark could have

(08:01):
taken three naps between the time he got off the
air and on the air. Let's talk about the matchup though.

Speaker 7 (08:07):
And I like having these conversations with you because I
feel like you've got good perspective on like not the
whole goat conversation everything else, But in the narratives that
come out from these sorts of games, if Mahomes is
able to win three in a row, something no one's
ever done, where does that put him in your mind?
Amongst the old time greats, the Danny Marinos, the Tom Brady's,

(08:30):
et cetera, et cetera, Like, where where does this put
him in? Because it is rarefied air in the conversation
for the goat?

Speaker 5 (08:36):
Wow? Already?

Speaker 4 (08:37):
Yeah, And look, he's twenty nine, he'll have won four
Super Bowl Michael Jordan, three, Pe did, Larry Bird and
Magic never did, and so Magic and Larry were the guys.
And then Jordan came along and he repeated they didn't.
That elevated him to that level. And so he'll have
three in a row, four twenty nine. I mean, how

(08:57):
many mvpss you have now?

Speaker 5 (08:59):
Three?

Speaker 4 (09:00):
And so he's only starting and he's there. So I
I think it puts him in the conversation for the Goat.
I don't think it necessarily puts him over the top.
But I think you could say they're on equal footing
because he does get the third one.

Speaker 6 (09:12):
Dang well, he's only three away from Tom Brady. At
this point, so he could take like a five if
they went six seven year hiatus on on winning them
and come back well and go on another tear.

Speaker 4 (09:27):
I mean, it's different. It'll be tougher to do that
because of the way free agency is and everything now.
But I think I think, I mean, they went ten
years between Super Bowl. Yes, Well, the question really comes
down to is Mahome is gonna be able to play
as long?

Speaker 5 (09:40):
Because we only want to play will he wants to?

Speaker 7 (09:42):
But you know, I mean he plays a style in
which he he you know, contrary to what most people think,
he does take hits, he does move.

Speaker 5 (09:50):
Around a lot more. Yes, and there's gonna be some roadbumps.

Speaker 7 (09:53):
There's gonna be and when Andy Reid retires whenever that is,
when Travis Kelser retires, Like we watched Brady go through
a lot of coordinators, a lot of players around him,
and there was a reason.

Speaker 4 (10:02):
For that hiatus, you know, least it was also three
years ago they said, whoa, oh my god, Tyreek Kill's gone.
What are they going to do? And they just keep
on winning. And I think there'll be different versions of
this now. Andy Reids another story if he retires. But
I think, you know, in talking to Andy Reid over
the years, he wants to keep coaching.

Speaker 5 (10:21):
I get that he could. By the way, he might
catch Sula. He's going to be the.

Speaker 4 (10:26):
Greatest coach of all time. I mean, if he wins
this one, gives him four, gives him three in a
row he hadn't done. Also what he did with the Eagles,
and then if he chases down, if he averages I
figured out, I think it was like thirteen wins over
the next three years. He chases down Don Shula with
those Super Bowls. He's the greatest coach of all time.
And I don't think you can debate it.

Speaker 5 (10:48):
You're right, that is crazy, right, Okay? Can the Chiefs
stop the run?

Speaker 6 (10:55):
Because I don't think they can and I think that's
going to be a problem for them and they game,
and if they can't stop the run, then all this.

Speaker 5 (11:03):
Talk about goat talk and winning the game.

Speaker 6 (11:06):
As Kansas City, which we always assume that Patrick Mahomes
is going offset what's going on out there no matter what.
But if you think about it, Buffalo was able to
run the ball on Kansas City. Houston was able to
run the ball on Kansas City. There's no reason to
think that this team isn't going to be able to

(11:29):
run the ball effectively against against the Kansas City.

Speaker 5 (11:33):
Well, they haven't given up one hundred yard rusher in
all year. I bet you they do. I bet you.

Speaker 4 (11:38):
I think, well, one time and it was a little
I think it was Lamar in the first game. I
think it was or Henry in the first game. Other
than that, no one hundred yard rushers in the postseason.
They don't give up hundred yard rushers. And so, yeah,
I get what you're saying, because that Eagles offensive line
is so good, so physical.

Speaker 5 (11:54):
Barkley's great. But here's the other thing, Spike Nola's had
two weeks, two weeks, two weeks. If you're playing Eagles,
what are you doing.

Speaker 4 (12:02):
You're gonna do everything you can to limit You're not
gonna stop Barkley, but you limit him and make hurts Beacha.

Speaker 5 (12:08):
And if hurts Beacha, you salute him and you say,
God bless you. You won the game. That's what I'm doing.
And so what do you do? You got to be
physical with the lives. Here's the thing.

Speaker 4 (12:17):
Barkley's been so good against eight man boxes. You know,
he's ripped off a lot of big runs, eight man boxes.

Speaker 5 (12:22):
So what do you do that? Well, there, here's how
I would do it.

Speaker 7 (12:27):
It always starts with the front, So you're gonna mix
up different fronts to try to give them different looks.
But more than anything else, it's kind of like remember
what Bill Belichick did versus the Los Angeles Rams and
back in the Super Bowl. I was in Atlanta, low
scoring game, right defensive back to takeaway fall. Well, there's
you're talking about that, and I'm talking about the more
recent one where GoF was there. Yes, they put a
lot of bearfronts. Bear fronts eliminate what you're gonna be

(12:49):
able to do in the run game. And I think
you're gonna see a fair amount of that where they
center and both guards are covered up.

Speaker 5 (12:54):
And that's gonna again limit what that package is for.

Speaker 7 (12:57):
Kellen Moore and what they want to do running the
football most again, and I haven't delved into, you know,
Kellen Moore's system and and and where what he typically
goes to. But there's only gonna be a handful of runs.
Usually when that's the case, I think you'll see a
fair amount of that. How they get to it, It
could be three using three defensive linemen and maybe is
mugging up a linebacker or something. But they'll find a
way of getting those guys covered up to change the run.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
Skins Chanal is going to be big and nobody knows
who he is, but he's a good football player. And
he doesn't he doesn't stay on the field all the
time because he comes off in a nickel when they
play a lot of nickel. But they're not They're gonna
put him on the field. He's gonna be big in
this game and try to stop they run.

Speaker 7 (13:32):
Everyone says that, And if I'm Kellen Moore, I put
him in a position where he has to cover sakuall
of course, because he's not good in coverage.

Speaker 5 (13:40):
He's good. He's good with his hand in the dirt.

Speaker 4 (13:41):
He's good off the ball, though against the run and coverage,
he's a liability and and I don't think and we'll
see what happens in the game.

Speaker 7 (13:48):
But everyone keeps talking about that. I don't know that
his impact is gonna It feels like it's overstated a
little bit from people up. Well, the guy's gonna make
the bigges zip back. Obviously, Chris Jones will decide the
game I mean, he's a game wrecker. He will side
the gate. If they block them, they'll beat them. If
they don't, they're gonna have problems.

Speaker 5 (14:03):
I believe they don't need to get cute.

Speaker 6 (14:07):
Come out and do what you do and run the ball,
and if you have success early, that's gonna be trouble
because I believe there's gonna be fatigue with them big
boys running, chasing, being aggressive, being physical against that Kansas
City front. Just keep coming downhill like they've done. And

(14:28):
I'm telling you, I think that's gonna be a problem.
They don't have to get cute, you know more. I
thought about it coming through the you know, getting closer
to the game. It's like, oh, they're gonna have to
do all these different things. They're gonna you know, Spags
is gonna walk them up. And I'm like, yeah, he's
gonna pack the box and he's gonna find ways to
find angles and this, that and the other.

Speaker 5 (14:48):
That all sounds good.

Speaker 6 (14:49):
You know what happens until them rye Dale start clicking
and you start hitting Rydale to Riddale d and that
thing he's hitting, and then down by down by down
and then boom, there's a big play that, Pops. I'm
telling you, these boys are gonna come out. They're gonna
they're gonna weird like Chris Jones especially. I would guarantee

(15:14):
you they're gonna wear Chris Chris Jones down in the
running Game. They're gonna run.

Speaker 5 (15:18):
They're gonna run that well, that's what they should do.
If you're the Eagles, that's your play.

Speaker 6 (15:22):
This is a game for Jalen Hurts to make a
good decision on looking at the defense and do I
give it to Saquon this this time or do I
run it? But the bottom line is is that that
Eagles front is going to They are going to be
the reason why this game.

Speaker 5 (15:40):
Is the way it plays out. But I think he's on.

Speaker 4 (15:43):
I think Brady's onto something with the bare front. I
think that that's what you have to do to try
and take that out.

Speaker 7 (15:48):
Just not to get into the weeds because we're on
you know radio or you know audio, but youtificates outside
zone running game.

Speaker 5 (15:55):
You know some some.

Speaker 7 (15:58):
Some of the line coaches don't mind running the power
skin power counter like a like a gap scheme into it.

Speaker 5 (16:02):
But it's tough and so you're you really are limited
in what you're going to try to do.

Speaker 7 (16:06):
Now having a quarterback that can run, like Jalen hurts,
that mixes some things up because because I always like
attacking any sort of bare front like that if you
can with option right, like I want to try to
attack the edge. If I can and try to go ahead,
let one of those guys run free, I'll read off
of them some fascist correct. So that's what's It's a
fast flow. Yeah, that's a fast flow.

Speaker 6 (16:26):
And then you got to ask yourself the question with
that read is it Saquon that's reading that backside in
or is it Jalen hurts that that not reading them
but having.

Speaker 5 (16:37):
To get by them, right, is it?

Speaker 6 (16:39):
Is it Saquon that's getting the ball and cutting back,
because they're going to have the fast flow against this
offensive line. If you do not fast flow against this
offensive line, they're going to get positioned on you and
they're going to gash you to the front side of
where they're blocking if you don't. If you if you
play it slower, you play it slow with your your

(16:59):
backside back, or you play it slow CBR rules cut
back boot REVERSI. If you play it slow with your
defensive end, then right now you have Saquan or Jalen.
All he has to do is beat that free that
free defensive end and there to the second level that's
four or five yards on that run play the Bills.

Speaker 4 (17:18):
You some barefront and went to some barefronts against the
Ravens and and kind of you know, for a while
limited limited what Henry was doing. I think you have
to I think you have to do different. You're right,
you got to be a surfer. You gotta hold your
serf on. You know that, I think on the end,
but you can't. You can't commit. If you commit, he pulls, like, yeah,

(17:38):
it pulls. You gotta be the defensive ends. You know
that is outside linebacker. You got to hold your hold
your sponsor pick the Chiefs.

Speaker 5 (17:46):
Look, you could do all.

Speaker 4 (17:48):
Everything you said, and they probably will. And the Chiefs
will do everything that you probably will. And we'll get
to the end of the game and the ball at
the end of the game, and he's gonna look at
Fangio Zones scheme and he's gonna go.

Speaker 5 (18:00):
He's gonna hit Worthy for the game winning touchdown. Worthy
the game. I think Worthy's having a big day. I
just hope he doesn't have a case of drops. Peter,
you're gonna stick around another second?

Speaker 3 (18:10):
Kay?

Speaker 5 (18:10):
Well, real quick?

Speaker 4 (18:11):
Then if he wins this one, is Patrick Mahomes better
than Danny Marino in your eyes?

Speaker 5 (18:17):
Then your guy Danny. Is he a better thrower of
the football than Danny Marino? No, No, he is not.
Ever's never been a better thrower of the football.

Speaker 4 (18:27):
Than Danny Marina. Danny Marino. And then the rest that
he's from Pittsburgh.

Speaker 5 (18:33):
Does he make good cutlets that Danny Marino? I bet
he makes great card? They gotta be really really thin?
Really do you know that it sparks the floor? Wow?

Speaker 3 (18:49):
So we got that week that We've got more of
the great PTE Prisco coming up next year. It's Two
Pros and a Cup of Joe live from Radio Row
in New Orleans for Super Week Here.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
On f s are be sure to catch live editions
of Two Pros and a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn,
LeVar Errington, and Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern,
three am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 3 (19:16):
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe, Fox Sports Radio,
LeVar Arrington, Brady Jonas Knox with you here on a
football Friday, Live from New Orleans for Super Week here
at Radio Row. Coming up here, we are going to
close up shop with another edition of Lee's Leftovers, the
final of the week here a little over fifteen minutes
from now.

Speaker 7 (19:35):
Pete Prisco still here with us. Have you walked by
this bounty video screen? Have you walked by that yet?

Speaker 5 (19:42):
He I'm paying to paid attention to it. Okay, we
got to see what it is.

Speaker 7 (19:47):
Hey, LeVar walked by and he turned into a chicken
wing for chicken wing on me, man pretty?

Speaker 5 (19:53):
I was like, all right?

Speaker 4 (19:54):
And then Jonas walked by paper towel, a roll of
paper towel.

Speaker 5 (19:58):
Sally I walked by, I turned into chicken wing, right diaper.
I'd probably turned it to the devil. I was going
to say, watch out, lords, there might.

Speaker 7 (20:13):
Be a trend or if you turn into a chicken wing,
maybe the more olive skin a little darker.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
Hey, Pete Prisco with us here still when you hear
we were talking about this this week that it's kind
of interesting the discussion surrounding Nick Sirianni where he was
actually on the hot seat coming into this year and
it's almost been dismissed and people aren't really like thinking
about how fantastic he's been his first few years there

(20:41):
in Philadelphia. Now somebody who carries the pison passion with pride.
When you see Siriani getting all this flak and maybe
not as much credit as he deserves for the success
he's had, what do you think it is with him
that just rubs people.

Speaker 5 (20:55):
The wrong way.

Speaker 4 (20:56):
I think his personality rubs people the wrong way a
little bit. I really do think he's a little bit abrasive.
He's a little stand offish, and I think, yeah, he's
got a little bit of that, and I think that
turns off people.

Speaker 5 (21:06):
But he makes some bad decisions in games. Let's let's
be real.

Speaker 4 (21:11):
I mean there's been some decisions in the games where
he hasn't exactly you know, been a coaching one on
one clinic. But you got to give him credit for
where he is. I mean, two super Bowls in three years,
hot seat, they can't say that anymore.

Speaker 5 (21:23):
There's no way if he loses this is he on
the hot seat again.

Speaker 7 (21:26):
I Mean, here's the thing is, we've seen a team
move on from Doug Peter Soff. He won a super Bowl, right,
I Mean, it's just like.

Speaker 4 (21:33):
Moved on from Andy Reid when Superboddy kept going to
championship games.

Speaker 7 (21:37):
It seems like it's not warranted, but you understand because
of their track record why people would maybe make that claim.

Speaker 5 (21:44):
And I think you look at the roster. Would you
put him on the hot seat if he doesn't win?
Of course not, of course not. Would you put him
on the hot seat. But Philly fans are different. You know,
Philly is different. Philly fans are different. I know they are.

Speaker 6 (21:55):
And and and again we deal with this with Franklin
at Penn State. If you lose the big game, they
judge you off of losing the big game. They don't
judge you off of your body of work and saying, oh, well,
look how close we are to the goal that is
to win it all. No, they look at it as

(22:15):
look how you got there and didn't win it. So
automatically people the fan base think that, oh, there's another
coach out there that will not only get us there,
but then they'll win it, Like there's this magical thought
process of that person exists. So I think he will
be on the hot seat if he loses this game.

(22:36):
I think he certainly will become come under a lot
of scrutiny if he loses the game. Now, is that
a hot seat where he's going to possibly lose his
job or anything like that.

Speaker 5 (22:48):
I don't think it's that hot.

Speaker 6 (22:50):
But I do think that if he loses this game,
that would be the second time he let one get
away to the same team, and I.

Speaker 5 (22:57):
Think that there will be some There will be some consequence.

Speaker 4 (23:00):
There's a lot of coaches have lost to Michael Jordan,
Patrick Mahomes.

Speaker 3 (23:04):
I mean, come on, by the way, Pete, I noticed something,
and I was just wondering if you could elaborate a
little bit on this. I'm looking at Prisco CBS a
tweet from ten hours ago. Hall of Fame system is broken.

Speaker 4 (23:17):
It's awful by that. It's awful because, Okay, are you
a voter? No, that's a whole nother story. But there's
a reason I'm not a voter.

Speaker 5 (23:24):
Why.

Speaker 4 (23:25):
Back in the day, they used to give the vote
to the newspaper in town all the time, not and
so the beat guy was always the voter. Well, I
irritated the Jaguars so badly in the first couple of
months of this their process that they decided to give
it to a TV guy. True story. That's why I'm
not a voter and the TV guy key. Once you
get it, it's like a Supreme Court justice. You stay

(23:45):
until you die. That's another part of the problem with
the They're all in there forever you stay, so you look,
that's why a couple of other tweets about the Supreme
Court justices, people don't understand that you don't lose your vote,
you stay in.

Speaker 3 (23:58):
So what about the four entries this year or the
people that didn't get in?

Speaker 5 (24:04):
Bother YOULI like, what happened? What bothered you? Fred Taylor
bothers me? That's a that's a big one.

Speaker 4 (24:10):
Yeah, Fred Taylor bought a big and here's why. Look, look,
I love Fred Taylor, I know him. I covered him
at everything, But he played in Jacksonville. He didn't get
the attention he deserved. You talk to players who put
every single player who played against ray.

Speaker 5 (24:24):
Lewis played against right is the best one I played against.

Speaker 6 (24:27):
He was six too, because he's big, he's fast, he's fast,
he's quick, he's strong. I mean, he's he's his vision
is is. He was the most gifted running back. He
was the most difficult running back to go up against.

Speaker 4 (24:45):
It if he And you know what, LeVar, it's funny
because every single player, everyone says that. And he was
six two two thirty or six one two thirty, look
it and he ran four two seven at Florida.

Speaker 5 (24:58):
Didn't look it and it was amazing.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
And you know, you talk about Barkley, Barkley, what Barkley's
Fred Taylor was Barkley? Yeah, yeah, I mean that's what
he was Forred Tale's bigger.

Speaker 5 (25:09):
Bigger, not bigger because because people.

Speaker 7 (25:14):
Who may not feel that way would would counter and say, well,
why didn't he win more Pro Bowls or more?

Speaker 4 (25:19):
Because fans vote one Pro Bowl. No, here's why fans vote.
In large part, it's a small market. It's a small market.
Nobody people didn't pay attention to Jacksonville. They they I
mean the year in ninety nine when they should have
went through the Super Bowl, they choke because they lost
three games to the Titans and went fourteen and three
and lost at home in the championship game. They would
have beat the Rams. They were the best team, they
had the number one defense. Were those only three losses

(25:41):
that year were at his Tennessee?

Speaker 5 (25:42):
Yes, three times. I didn't realize that.

Speaker 4 (25:45):
Yeah, one one in the rain because Coltlin called a
terrible play and Brunel through an interception, through an interception
in the end zone and.

Speaker 3 (25:53):
If he can't get through a recap without airon somebody out.

Speaker 5 (25:56):
Oh yeah, well it created it actually called a table play.
It actually created a riff.

Speaker 4 (26:01):
Kaughlin called him out in the media, and so Brunel
and Coaughlan had this great rift.

Speaker 5 (26:05):
So of course I had a great story at Coughlan angry.

Speaker 4 (26:08):
But yeah, Fred Taylor is there is Look, there's three
running backs in the history of the league, in the
history of the league who have twenty five hundred tarries
and average four point five per rush in their career.
Three one is Barry Sanders, two is Adrian Peterson, who's
a slam dunk for the Hall of Fame. And number
three is Fred Taylor. Derek Henry will be four, become
four next year. He's the only one that doesn't even

(26:29):
get consideration because they look at the Pro Bowls. These
guys don't watch tape, they don't talk to guys like LeVar,
and so they want look at the Pro Bowls. The
reason he need to go to Pro Bowls is large
part because of the market, but also he'd have a
great year, but they're always like one guy who flashed
and have that make like Priest Holmes would have that
amazing year then fall off or Jamal Lewis had that

(26:49):
amazing year in fall Off.

Speaker 5 (26:51):
So he was always kind of victim of those guys
while he continued to do it.

Speaker 4 (26:55):
It should be in there's no question, Hey, what he's
not getting what coach probably hates them in the NFL.

Speaker 5 (27:00):
I was curious, I hates a strong word.

Speaker 4 (27:03):
Okay, I'll let me ask you this. What story can
you tell us about an interaction you had that was
a little feisty. Oh, you've got to have something. Uh Oh,
Sean Peyton once and I love Sean now though, but
I give smoke back, so I don't.

Speaker 5 (27:23):
Sean put your smoke out.

Speaker 4 (27:25):
And Sean ol Sean old to tell you this one.
They played a game here when I used to go
to games, and they played a game here and Greg
Williams was the defensive corn and they they were playing
the Jets, and the Jets were good, and they limited
him to like I take a field goal or whatever.

Speaker 5 (27:39):
I forget it was almost they did nothing.

Speaker 4 (27:41):
And so I go into the afterwards I'm doing interviews,
and I talked to Greg Williams, and I write this
whole column on Greg Williams and how he great, the
great job he did.

Speaker 5 (27:50):
And so what happens is I get on the plane
the next day to fly home.

Speaker 4 (27:53):
I have to connect through Atlanta, and I checked my
messages and I see there's a call from Sean Payton
and I listened to and he's like.

Speaker 5 (28:00):
You, I bet you give that guy all the credit.
You know what I did to get this guy here?
And then they screaming at me. So immediately I call
him right back.

Speaker 4 (28:08):
I go, Sean, you forget all those times when I
was propping you up as the best play caller in
the NFL.

Speaker 5 (28:13):
How about that? And he's like, well, you know, and
I go yeah. He goes yeah, but you don't know
what I did. He I got Greg Williams took up.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
Are you right?

Speaker 5 (28:21):
All about him? About it? Ever since? That ain't his
own goat? Ever since?

Speaker 6 (28:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (28:26):
Ever since then, Sean and I we've been you. Look,
if you disarm him, did you say you're gonna pop
him in the mouth?

Speaker 4 (28:32):
When you say I wouldn't pop anybody in the mouth.
I'm not gonna do that unless I have to.

Speaker 5 (28:36):
But I mean, I mean there were many There were
many players that wanted to pop me in the mouth.
I can tell you that. So now I want to
ask you about Gary Walker. That's one. Okay, have you
been on Bourbon Stree yet? Uh? Just for we had
a little kids. I used to. I used to tear
up Bourbon Street. Oh yeah, I don't doubt that. But
I'm saying, like, how do you walk around there though?

Speaker 4 (28:58):
From the pickpocketers and potentially like you know, some of
the riff rafflets around there.

Speaker 5 (29:02):
I mean, do you do you carry something or you
just you ready at all times with I have eyes,
you have four. You gotta have eyes in the back
of your head. You always got to look at the situation.
The situation guy, Okay, what's the situation and your thinking
on Burbon Street? What's the situation? You got to keep
your eyes open. That's a head on a swivel. You know.
How do you know you've been pickpocketed though? Yeah? Huh.
I mean if you got it, if you had the pickpocket,
it can happen to you. How would you know I've

(29:24):
never been You've been to Italy? Right? Yeah? The pickpockets
in Italy are pros? Right?

Speaker 4 (29:28):
Yeah, so I've never been, but I'm going. But look,
here's how you can pick. You know, it's like the
old days in New York City. You know, grandparents used
to have the money belt. They put the you know,
they had this a little zipper in the belt. They
put the money in there, and then you had like
two dollars in your pocket for the pickpockets.

Speaker 5 (29:44):
What that little zipper was for, Yeah yeah, I didn't
know that.

Speaker 4 (29:47):
Yeah, well then it became a zipper for drugs for
the next gen, well for your generation.

Speaker 5 (29:53):
But yeah, that's what that's what it was.

Speaker 7 (29:55):
A real quick in thirty seconds, tell us what it
was like to live in Miami back when cocaine was
just rampant.

Speaker 4 (30:00):
Oh yeah, I knew nothing about that, cowboy. I Well
tell you this though, even the next generation.

Speaker 5 (30:08):
If you walk into a bottle club at like seven
in the morning and everybody was chewing on glow sticks,
I do know that, you know what they were hot? Yeah,
they were on I mean, so they was chewing on them. Yeah,
you know, that was part of the process.

them had lunch before we even got.

might have had twenty drinks yesterday?

Speaker 5 (35:26):
No, and there were long Alan's. Yeah, I'm telling you.

Speaker 4 (35:32):
You were when I saw you, or what I can recall,
