Jay car
1:04
to throw wants to go deep.
1:06
He's got Shaheed out there.
1:07
He's got it and Shaheed and put
1:10
a touchdown fifty eight.
1:12
Yards to get New Orleans League.
1:15
Let's just get straight to it. Here
1:18
we go. Saints win. We're
1:21
back at four or four five
1:23
hundred even. Now hopefully we start
1:26
stacking them wins. We need that chance.
1:28
It's about that time. We're entering
1:30
November, and November is prime. It's
1:33
a lot of rhymes, all right.
1:35
To take over, we have to be able
1:37
to have games like we did this
1:39
past weekend. I think Jonathan
1:42
Taylor, I think twenty one,
1:44
they did a great job. They tandem that they
1:46
are going crazy
1:48
the way that they did. I
1:51
think they're a good team, and that's sort
1:53
of what happens. We have great players, good on good
1:55
teams and they try to
1:57
take it out. That being said,
2:00
we gotta win. Played Garner Minshew three
2:02
different times on three different teams. Now that's
2:04
a win and the win and the win. And I feel
2:06
like I sacked him as well. But that's a whole
2:08
nother thing. If it is, if it isn't, we'll
2:10
see what happens. It's
2:12
okay, defense will come back.
2:14
My dog paulsing the debo number twenty
2:16
nine for the Black and Gold. Everything in
2:18
black and goal just looks great.
2:20
Interception in the end zone, I was like,
2:22
get dull also trying to set up a block
2:24
for him, and he then reverse takes
2:27
it all the way to the far side numbers,
2:29
which okay, fine, I guess, but we're
2:31
all on the near side numbers trying to block for you taste far
2:34
side numbers scurge up the field for like thirty yards
2:36
or whatever it is.
2:36
We'll take it. But let's talk about offense. There.
2:39
Offense was electric electric
2:44
tuddies everywhere Albakamar and multiple
2:46
tuddies, Taysom Hill tuddy, Rashi
2:49
shahi, the need for speed,
2:51
three catches, one hundred and fifty three yards
2:53
in a tuddy tuddy being a touchdown.
2:56
Come on, stick with me here.
2:57
This man was averaging fifty one yards
2:59
a cat burners, wheels,
3:02
oh, and Derek Carr was putting out
3:04
them deals. You get a tuddy, you get a tuddy.
3:07
Come on, everybody, get in. It's
3:09
a beautiful thing. It's exciting, it's inspiring.
3:12
You know. DC, four time pro
3:14
bowler, was.
3:16
Talking to him on the bus prior
3:18
about guys that I'll do
3:20
my best to forget.
3:22
He hit me on the sideline, like you gonna remember me, I
3:25
said, DC, you're.
3:25
A pro bowler. I'm always gonna remember you. You're my quarterback.
3:28
Now, I'm always gonna remember you. So
3:30
that's that's big game for our team. That
3:32
was really like icing on the cake the way that
3:34
they were playing, which makes you so
3:37
so excited about our potential.
3:39
And we have to be able to capture
3:41
that potential for the next nine games.
3:43
Again, sitting at four to four, you got a light to lot
3:46
to fight for as we're shitting atop our division,
3:49
and I wouldn't say running away.
3:50
With it, but we have a chance here.
3:51
We have to start stacking these wins asap,
3:54
starting with this upcoming week gets Chicago
3:56
Bears.
3:57
Now, let's move along and move out the way.
4:00
It'd be remiss of me of
4:02
saying I've been so blessed to play in this league for the last
4:04
thirteen years. I finally hit
4:06
my two hundredth regular season game. I
4:09
think I hit it two hundred. I thought I hit it two hundred,
4:12
but it was with the playoffs included.
4:14
So this past weekend was my two hundredth regular
4:16
season game, one hundred and ninety nine start,
4:20
ninety ninth start, which
4:23
is I feel like, which is impressive, you know, being
4:25
from draft class twenty eleven with so many Hall
4:27
of famers, so many goats, everybody
4:29
that you know from Cam
4:32
Newton, the way he changed the
4:34
game into the field of play too,
4:37
you know, right after him being Von Miller, who
4:40
we're gonna have on.
4:40
The show later. Let's just talk about is von
4:43
Miller go?
4:44
But then, of course let's just talk about
4:46
today spooky season.
4:49
And I just wanted to say it's Halloween.
4:51
So it's Halloween,
4:54
but it's a Tuesday, and it's the trade deadline
4:56
coming up.
4:56
A lot of things have already happened. You
4:59
talk about.
4:59
Either.
5:00
The notable would be, you know, big Cat
5:02
Leonard Williams from USC getting
5:04
traded from New York to.
5:08
The Seahawks.
5:12
I don't know. Maybe, like I said, maybe I'm biased. I'm
5:14
just like loyalty, loyalty, loyalty.
5:16
And teams are like commodity, commodity,
5:18
commodity, so it hurts. I don't know, Like I said, I'm
5:20
biased because I've been with the Norton Saints for thirteen
5:22
years. I'm biased because you know, my dad,
5:24
Steve Jordan Vikings
5:27
Ring of Honor, six time pro bowler, was
5:31
you know, one clubber. When I
5:33
was over in Central Europe, you know, they were like, oh, you're one
5:36
clubber.
5:36
I was like, sure, I am. You know, when you play
5:38
for.
5:38
One team, you get
5:40
a lot of loyalty
5:43
or you know, I feel like there's ties there, Like all
5:45
my kids are from New Orleans, you know, like
5:48
I met I met my wife in New Orleans.
5:50
You know, everything that has had good
5:52
to me has happened as a grown man sort of happened
5:54
in New Orleans. So you know, the
5:56
city has embraced me, just like I've embraced the city.
5:58
So I would be devas if I was ever traded.
6:01
Now have I seen you know, trade rumors with my name
6:03
attached to them? Sure, up plenty.
6:06
You know over the years, right before I signed
6:08
my first well technically
6:10
my second deal, but my first deal after being drafted by the
6:12
Saints, you know, there was rumors going around
6:14
I could be traded.
6:15
And I went up top.
6:16
I was like, hey, is that true, And they were like, no, but
6:18
if there's a good deal for both of us, we're
6:20
probably you know, we could be open to it. And I
6:22
was like, I
6:24
was like, you send me anywhere cold, like that's
6:26
it for me, and they laughed and I was serious,
6:29
and you know, it is what it is.
6:31
Eight nine years later, I'm still a
6:33
saint. You know.
6:34
I think the year seven or eight
6:36
or whatever that was, there were some trade roomors going up there
6:38
and by that time I was I'm
6:41
bawling and I've made enough
6:43
to never have to work again.
6:46
As my dad would say it, I've
6:48
got to leave me alone money. And that's
6:50
the abridged kind of version.
6:53
And I don't know what that means, but it means I
6:55
was able to dictate a lot of things, like if you trade
6:57
me, I will retire, and they were like, no, you
6:59
wouldn't. I was like no, I would like all right,
7:01
now I'm on the legacy vibe. Anyways,
7:04
sorry that I'm I'm gonna have to go on. And
7:06
what I really want to.
7:07
Just turn to is Halloween.
7:09
And let's just talk about you know, who
7:11
sets the ideas up for Halloween. My first
7:14
couple of years with a young family, it
7:16
was me my first.
7:17
Uh.
7:18
I always enjoyed, you know, my older brother
7:20
flying in. When I first got to leave, cute
7:22
flying on. One year, I was
7:24
like Superman, he was Batman or whatever that
7:26
was. Uh,
7:30
my boys would fly in. We'd have great Halloween times.
7:32
Now I'm a family man, So the Halloween dynamic
7:34
has changed.
7:35
You know. Now we go trick or treating and
7:38
now all the kids can walk. I'm sort of excited.
7:40
My youngest is too. She can walk, now, she can talk.
7:42
Now she's she's she's gonna be cute.
7:45
She's gonna be like a little Told from Super
7:47
Mario World, whatever that is.
7:49
She's gonna be a little Told situation. Cute little
7:51
thing.
7:51
Right then, Nia,
7:53
of course is the little Magician Wizard,
7:56
Cooper Trooper.
7:57
Cute little thing.
7:58
Right then, my daughter is Princess Peach because
8:01
my oldest daughter's Princess Peach because she she's
8:03
a she's a queen in her mind, she's a princess,
8:05
but in her mind she's a queen. Then, of course, my
8:08
son Tank Mario, wife Luigi,
8:11
and I'm Bowser. So
8:13
that's what the family situation is. She did it all the
8:15
last two years. I've been hands off on this. I get
8:18
control of Christmas onesies, and that's what I'm
8:20
known for. I'm go I let her do it last year.
8:22
It is what it is.
8:23
But that being said, as we're going trigger treating,
8:26
let's just talk about some of the best candy involved
8:28
here, like best Candy Twigs,
8:30
Payday Snickers, sour
8:33
patch kids, Swedish
8:35
fish are good go tos.
8:36
In fact, this time of year you get excited.
8:39
What what Sometimes you'll find
8:41
them them good you know them relic candies,
8:43
them six s lits, gobstoppers
8:47
on the on the flip side, worst candy, you'd
8:50
say, candy corn, the scary people
8:52
that eat candy corn. Like
8:55
I'm not saying that, I
8:57
like you fully bought into Halloween. That's that's It's
9:00
the only thought I have And like
9:02
candy corn. How old are you to
9:05
like candy corn? Like, I assume your next favorite
9:07
candy is were There's originals, and then
9:09
after that is that random strawberry tinfoil
9:12
candy. Tell me what decade
9:14
you're from for you to think candy corn is delicious,
9:17
because you just didn't have a lot of options. In my mind, it
9:19
was probably like nineteen forty, nineteen
9:22
thirty something Halloween has just like
9:24
really hit mainstream, and you were like, ooh,
9:27
this wonderful confectioner's sweet
9:29
candy corn, or like those weird people that
9:32
put like saltwater taffy out.
9:34
I don't even know what flavor this is. I don't want
9:36
it. Bring me what's great?
9:39
Snickers? Twigs.
9:41

9:43

12:02

12:04
sex. If I can remember, right, I think you
12:06
would six behind me.
12:08
Man. So yeah, yeah, like probably
12:10
six and a half and a half.
12:13
Who's keeping school man.
12:19
Say legend dary.
12:21
I would to know, like you know, like
12:24
I we've talked about our mentalities at
12:26
your past or suthing cap but uh,
12:28
like I just want to know, how is
12:31
it that your elite is so like your your
12:33
get off is so elite?
12:34
You know what what goes into that?
12:35
Like I'm always key in like play clock behind
12:37
the office of lineman or knowing where a quarterback
12:40
likes to to hike hike within
12:42
that situation. But for
12:44
you, is it is it just awareness?
12:47
Is it is it reacting off of office
12:49
of line? Like what what is it entails your get off versus
12:51
what I do?
12:52
Man?
12:52
You know from going to the past
12:55
for a summit, you know, I look at whatever,
12:58
you know, whatever information I can get, whether
13:01
that's the playclock, whether that's formation, whether
13:04
that's the right tackle
13:07
or the right guard, or the center or the left tackle
13:09
in the left guard. Like, I'm looking
13:11
for whatever I can get to
13:14
really help me with a good get off.
13:16
It might be the center's heels.
13:17
He might be because sometimes these three hundred
13:19
pounders, they they they
13:21
need a little bit of help to like get out of there. Sometimes
13:24
it might be the quarterback under center, you
13:27
know, especially the tall quarterbacks, they like the you
13:29
know, crowd underneath there, and they have to
13:31
move before they really
13:33
hike the ball to get where they want to go. So I just
13:35
try to look at whatever I can get, man,
13:38
And it's hard to have. It's
13:40
hard to have eleven guys on the same
13:42
schedule. It's hard to have eleven guys saying
13:45
the same thing.
13:46
You know.
13:46
I like to get a little bit of information from
13:48
whoever's gonna give it to me.
13:50
M Yeah, So you
13:52
do all that during during film breakdown, you get
13:55
whatever you got. What Denzel say, he
13:57
said, I came in here. I'm not leaving out
13:59
something. I'm gonna leave a song I've
14:02
used. I've used everything I got. Sometimes it might just
14:04
be in the game, you know, it might just I
14:07
might.
14:07
It might be all the way up to that first or second
14:09
snap, you know, and then you know, if I
14:11
can't find any informations, I'm
14:13
guessing.
14:14
You know, I ain't afraid to say it. You
14:16
know, I hate the word it like that.
14:18
Let me word it like this.
14:18
I anticipate anticipated.
14:22
Sometimes it's a little gamble, you know. Sometimes
14:24
you take information and I'm trying
14:26
to hit that black jack.
14:27
Oh man.
14:28
All the past rush is if I give if I jump
14:30
off side, you know, two or three times
14:33
a season, like, I'm okay with that. I'm
14:35
okay with two or three outside the season. You
14:38
know that's gonna help me get you know, two or three more
14:40
sex. I will pay my taxes, man, And I'm
14:42
okay with I'm okay with jumping outside.
14:44
Sorry, coach, It'll never be. It'll never be on
14:47
third and five. Do I tell you that right now? It'll never be
14:49
on thirty five.
14:50
Yeah, I'll be on third and eight, thirty
14:52
nine.
14:53
I'm gonna pull the trigger off for sure.
14:57
I love that, bro.
14:58
So you know, trade that coming up. I
15:01
was talking about it earlier on the show. But you
15:04
know, just I've never been traded. You know, you
15:07
were a Denver legend and then
15:09
got traded to the Rams.
15:10
What is it? And now you're over at the builds?
15:12
But like, what does it feel like being traded one?
15:15
And just the process,
15:17
like I don't even know who I call people
15:20
like, hey, move my stuff, take care of my
15:22
family. I got a game I gotta play next week. And everything
15:24
that I know and have known for years got
15:27
to figure it out.
15:27
Man. I will tell you this, they
15:30
will figure it out in a short period of time.
15:34
Where's the equipment guys, whether it's the equipment
15:36
guys, where it's an agent, you know, whether
15:38
it's your assistant or whoever.
15:40
They will I'm be telling you they will figure
15:42
it out. And it feels like, honestly,
15:46
it feels like it
15:48
feels like your girlfriends just roll.
15:50
Over and look at you and just say I
15:52
don't love you, know, mom, I'm gonna go get somebody else,
15:55
you know.
15:55
So that's what it feels like. It has like that.
15:58
I was heartbroken, man, like you know, I
16:01
you know, I felt like I was gonna be like the Larry Fitzgerald
16:04
of you know how Larry Fitzgerald
16:06
was for the Cardinals, Like no matter how good it was,
16:09
he was there no matter how bad it was.
16:11
You know, he was there.
16:12
You know, I think he played sixteen
16:14
or eighteen years and he was there, you know, whether
16:17
he was playing well or whether he was just you
16:19
know, mediocre his whole.
16:21
Phase, he was there, and I thought that would
16:23
be me. You know.
16:24
Obviously that didn't happen, but it
16:26
felt like I was when they told me so
16:28
that morning, right they I
16:31
had no idea for one, like you know sometimes
16:33
guys they have like an
16:35
idea.
16:35
Sometimes they might be the rumors,
16:38
little echo.
16:39
I didn't have a whisper.
16:42
Me and my agent, we didn't have anything. I didn't
16:44
have any They kept it all secret,
16:46
and I'll go
16:48
into the office right for the game on Sunday. I
16:51
didn't play in that game. I come into the I was
16:53
in the training room getting my ankle workth on, and
16:56
the head trainer was like, hey, man, George, George
16:59
Peyton. He was like, man, George, want to see you upstairs.
17:01
And I looked at him and I was like, hey, won't
17:03
George come down here? Like I'm in the training room.
17:05
He's like, I think you know, George wants
17:07
to talk to you up there. So immediately I knew that
17:10
I was getting traded. So he I grabbed
17:12
all my stuff and it just felt
17:14
so every single step that just felt
17:16
like, dang, what's going on? Man?
17:18
It felt like I was going to the principal office. I
17:20
get up in there. I sit down in
17:22
the seat across from George Peyton's desk.
17:24
He presses a little button, so he had
17:26
like a little button on his thing, and he pressed it and the
17:29
door closed behind me and I sat down and he.
17:31
Said, how's your ankle?
17:33

19:11
third of my life. I spent ten I

19:18
I was thirty two at the time. I had spent a third of
19:20
my life in Denver, won
19:23
Super Bowl there. I had my first son, there, had
19:27
my house there, I had everything.
19:28

19:47
he was like, hey, man, like we need you. Man, let's go
19:50

19:51
And the crazy thing is like.
19:53
Six I think it was like four four,
19:56
like four and a half or six years ago.
19:58
I was in a club in
20:01
LA and I had ran in a coach
20:04
McVay. What was the coach with
20:06
the Arizona Cardinals, Cliff
20:09
Kingsbury he was with Cliff Kingsbury coach
20:11
mcveay and it was another coach. They
20:14
was in there having having a good old time, and you
20:16
know I was in the club. I was still with the Denver Brock was like
20:18

20:36
from just the club. By winning the Super Bowl, it
20:38
was like, come on over here, man, let's make it happen. So he
20:40
made me feel better.
20:43
You know, I went home.
20:44
I went home.
20:45
I started looking around like my whole house like
20:47
I built it from the ground up, Like my whole house is
20:49
all Denver.
20:50
Had all these memories and game balls
20:52
and.
20:53
Stuff, and I had left. They
20:55
kicked me out of the facility there so fast that they
20:57
had to come to my house. The media team
20:59
had to come to my house to get
21:01
me to have me do my fairway, my farewell
21:04
to uh Denver.
21:05
And the Denver Broncos. So I did that. A couple
21:07
of more tears fell.
21:10
I went out to I went out to Bennie
21:12
Hanas because that's one of my favorite spots to go in Denver's.
21:15
You know when you say Bennie Hanahs, like you know, but this one
21:18
is top of the line. Every time I go there.
21:21
All the food is great, So this is one of my favorite. Was go to Bennie
21:23
Honahs, me and Melomy Gordon and he just kept
21:25
looking at me like, damn
21:28

21:28
He kept saying like, damn bro, he really gone.
21:30
And I'm like, yeah, bro, like I'm really going.
21:33
I fell asleep.
21:34
I had a I had a real early flight
21:36
to go to la and I remember falling
21:39
asleep and I woke up the next morning to catch
21:41
my flight and I was like, damn it, real like, I'm
21:43
really.
21:44
Going to l A.
21:45
I hopped on the flight. When I got on the when I got on the
21:47
when I got on the plane, I was like, man like, I'm
21:51
taking off. I'm watching all like the little the
21:53
mountains and I'm telling them like hey, man like,
21:55
when I land this plane, I'm
21:58
done with this demo. Ronco if I'm just
22:00
gonna compartmentalize it. I'm not gonna look back
22:02
on it, like that chapter in my life is done.
22:04
When I land in LA, I'm a Los
22:07
Angeles RAM, I'm playing with Aaron Donald
22:09
and it's time to win a super Bowl. So I fell asleep
22:11
on the plane and when I woke up, they had
22:13
their social media team and rampage
22:16
the RAM. He was there and everybody
22:19
was so excited to see me, and I'm like, man, I'm a Los Angeles
22:21
ram, and I spent so much time in LA.
22:24
I spent in LA.
22:25
All my friends and everybody that I knew
22:27
in La. It was just it was amazing,
22:29
man. And you know, we go win a sup we go win a
22:32
super.
22:32
Bowl, win a super Bowl that same year,
22:35
and it really could have been a throw off like between
22:37
between you man Odell
22:40
there like that first like
22:43
a little bit of MVP time for me,
22:45
and Odell came
22:48
the next week.
22:49
So you know, even if I did have
22:51
like a little hangover from wanting to be a Denver Bronco,
22:53
like, Odell came the very next week after
22:55
that, the Homies was there.
22:57
And it was like, bro, like this is this is where I'm
22:59
at. Man, I'm enjoying it.
23:00
Man Like.
23:01
We lost our first three games when I came.
23:03
It was like I left Denver, we was
23:05
losing, and I go to the Rams and we lose our
23:07
first three games, and then we got it together.
23:09
Man.
23:10
And you know, l A is always LA, whether
23:12
you win or lose.
23:13
Man.
23:13
And I just I just remember feeling
23:16
rejuvenated. I feel like the city
23:18
of l A brought me back. Playing with Aaron Donald
23:21
brought me back. Being on a
23:23
competitive team, it like rejuvenated
23:26
me, man like. And I enjoyed playing so far.
23:28
It's the greatest stadium in our league,
23:31
maybe even in the world. Man, it's it's a it's a it's
23:33
a great stadium.
23:34
And that was my home stadium.
23:35
And you've played it, you've played in New Orleans.
23:38
You've heard how loud our
23:40
fans get.
23:40
You know, Camra, It's not about loud, It's not about like
23:43
it's so far was never it was never loud
23:45
like that.
23:46
I'm just saying, like brand new
23:49
already they got the boosy belows down there in the end
23:52
zone like it was, you know, it
23:54
was vibing and jay Z experience.
23:58
People people go over there, people go to
24:00
sofar to to enjoy the experience. They're
24:03
not They're not screaming from their heart and they soul. They screaming
24:05
from like the top of their lungs.
24:08
Yeah, I give you that.
24:09
Even if with the super Bowl it didn't even feel
24:11
like like, uh a
24:13
super Bowl. It felt like a dinner party, like it felt
24:16
like you got all the rich people to
24:18
hear the best NFL
24:20
team played.
24:21
It never really got loud.
24:22
But the super Bowl is a super Bowl, man, no matter
24:25
no matter where it's at, Man, they could be a mad game.
24:27
You tell me, look, you tell me a
24:29
Gascar. Those those juices gonna flow.
24:31
Man.
24:32
But it hurt at first being
24:34
traded. It hurt, but that
24:36
three months I needed that, man, and it ended
24:39
up being really really good for me.
24:40
Man, audio too, which one? Which one do you
24:42
like? More?
24:44
So it's kind of like you know, I always
24:46
say, like it's like having
24:48
two kids, Like you got kids. I got kids.
24:51
I love them only I only got one son.
24:53
I got one legacy. You
24:56
got two boys. You know what I'm saying. I got
24:58
one boy, three three girls. They gon the last
25:00
name.
25:00
I hear you, So
25:03
I got I got two boys. So it feels
25:05
like they I love them both. Man,
25:07
they can they too completely different, but
25:10
I love them both the same. Like violence
25:12
my first born super Bowl fifty
25:14
one, Super Bowl MVPs with the Dinver Broncos
25:17
super Bowl fifty six victory.
25:19
That's my second son.
25:21
And I got to play with Aaron Donald and Coach McVay
25:24
and all these got Coach McVeigh man like he
25:27
is. He is a hell of a coach, but I
25:29
feel like he is a He
25:31
is a he is a veteran
25:34
players coach. He just understands what
25:36
the guys need. He understood when we was
25:38
tired, he understood when we needed a pep
25:41
talk. He understood when we needed a day off, when
25:43
we need a half a day or Coach McVeigh
25:45
and the team that we had, like you
25:47
know.
25:47
He could he could do that.
25:48
He could give us, you know, half days
25:50
and we would go out there and play well and win. So it
25:53
wasn't like, you know, he was just you
25:55
know, all my team, sorry, like give him dal so it
25:57
won't be too He stressed on
25:59
him like he was winning. So he took he took the load
26:01
off so we can go extra hard in the game.
26:03
And it worked.
26:04
It worked for and then you then you signed.
26:06
I remember talking to you this before you signed to
26:08
the Bills. You're like, man, I think I'm going back to the Rams next
26:10
thing. I know, you go to the Bills, I'm like, legend
26:13
six year deal.
26:14
And we talked, you know, we talked about it.
26:16
Bro.
26:16
You was like, I'm trying to play the year you know, eighteen
26:18
nineteen twenty Boo Smith. You know, is
26:20
that still a plan? You still you're still on that eighteen
26:23
nineteen twenty years That
26:25
that is.
26:26
My that is my uh, that
26:28
is my my humanly uh,
26:32
that is my that is my plan as a human being.
26:34
You're my hero, you know God God
26:36
has My mom always said
26:39
if you if you want to make God left, start making plans.
26:42
So that's what i want to do. Whatever
26:45
God has for me, I'm gonna take with Yeah,
26:47
I'm gonna take it with my chest up and
26:50
with my chest out in my head of how man, I'm
26:52
already beat the game. I'm already
26:54
I'm already won the game. Now we're going back for
26:56
the for the extra little like incentives
26:59
to unlock this character and unlocked this skin
27:01
like already know.
27:03
But now I'm just trying to like have
27:05
total nomination in the game.
27:06
So with the bills with the buildings subtainable,
27:09
man, Like we got a great quarterback, we got a great facility,
27:12
we got a great system.
27:14
Being our our gym is amazing,
27:17
man.
27:17
And you know, if it's gonna happen, it's
27:19
gonna happen here with the with the Buffalo Bill. I
27:21
will say this if I end
27:24
up having them to leave, and if I get
27:26
traded again, or if anything else happened,
27:28
I will say this.
27:28
I'm done, man, I'm done bills.
27:31
This is my last stop. I'm not picking them
27:34
back up and tying them up for nobody else.
27:36
This is this is this is my last stop.
27:38
So either I'm here for the
27:40
whole six or whenever it's done, here
27:42
is done. I will say that.
27:44
Oh, I'll say, so you played with
27:47
you played with Peyton Manning over at Denver,
27:49
You've.
27:49
You you know when super Bowl there? You played with Mats
27:52
Stafford or over it over at the Rams.
27:55
For a long time, I would call him Matt Safford. I don't
27:57
know why I.
27:57
Messed up his last name. That was on me, bro,
28:01
That's what I'm saying. I don't know what I did to mess that up.
28:03
And I was like, no, it's I had real argument. They
28:05
got corrected. But like, and now
28:07
you're playing with Josh Allen. You know, at the beginning of the year
28:09
you said he's probably a front runner for the MVP. Conversation,
28:13
like, how do you how do you feel about those quarterbacks?
28:15
Is their difference in terms of this huge probably
28:17
a huge cerebral difference from Peyton Manning
28:19
because he's just one of the most brilliant minds in the
28:21
game to a mass affort to now you
28:23
know Josh Allen is used to one
28:25
do you think Josh Allen's still an MVP
28:28
front runner?
28:28
And two?
28:29
Like, what was the difference between Super Bowl Championship
28:32
years and this year year? And now?
28:35
So all
28:38
three of those quarterbacks that you mentioned, they have some similarities
28:41
and they're different in a lot of ways as
28:43
well. I think the similarities we
28:45
would say they're all they all have this this
28:49
this this persona about him. They
28:51
all have like this this energy about
28:53
him that when they get out there, it's never
28:56
really over. Even if it says is over, even if
28:58
we're down by seventeen whatever it says, it's
29:00
never really over.
29:02
It's just the moment.
29:03
We're waiting on a moment for them to click and put
29:05
together eight to ten
29:08
plays and the game will totally changed.
29:10
All three of them have that ability
29:12
to do that, and they do it in different ways, of course,
29:15
but they all have that ability to do that. Personalities
29:19
was they were totally different, except for the energy
29:21
component.
29:22
That I was talking about with all three quarterbacks.
29:24
Matthew Stafford was a little bit.
29:26
He was more quiet. Peyon
29:29
Manning he talked all the time.
29:31
But it was all business, business, business, business,
29:33
business.
29:34
And when you have that sense of urgency to
29:36
go out there and win and win a Super Bowl, it's okay
29:39
if it's all business, business, business, like, I don't
29:41
mind it. I just want to win. I don't have no pride and
29:43
none of this. I just want to win. And I think
29:46
with Josh Allen, but he's a d longman
29:48
bro. He's one of the guys.
29:49
Like he's one of the guys if you if you
29:51
didn't know what position he played and we're
29:54
just walking around and he his personality
29:56
would fit right in the defensive line
29:58
room with us Cam.
30:00
He's one of the guys.
30:01
He's gonna joke, he's not gonna take things too
30:03
serious. Like if we win, we
30:05
win. If we don't, we don't. He has this confidence
30:08
about him that even if we do lose, like he
30:10
knows, he knows the type of player
30:13
that he is. We all know what type of player he is, and you're
30:15
not gonna win them all. And I would say
30:17
that the similarities to the teams that we
30:19
have the Super Bowl teams is man, we on all
30:21
three of those teams, those two teams, the
30:23
Denver Broncos and the Los Angeles Rounds, and
30:26
here with the Buffalo Bills, we.
30:28
Don't have We don't have one on
30:30
on all three of those teams.
30:31
We never had that, if
30:34
I if I can, if I can say a lack of better words,
30:36
we never had a like a head in there like that
30:39
was all about hisself
30:41
and all about like his contract or
30:43
him being hurt, or him trying to win, or
30:45
him trying to go to the Pro Bowl. We

33:31
the financials are good, you know when
33:33

33:41
be on the golf course all day if you ask me that.
33:43
So I enjoy playing golf, and it's it's
33:45
one of my passions for sure.
33:47
Man, I enjoy top golf is what I
33:49
enjoy.
33:50
The chicken form thing, man, the chicken
33:52
for I didn't grow up raising chickens. I didn't grow up
33:54
on a farm like I grew up hunting
33:56
fish. I was started hunting fishing
33:59
when I was a little kid. But I never really was like a farmer
34:01
or anything like that. I want to Tam, I.
34:04
I thought you always was a chicken farmer like I
34:07
was in college.
34:07
I took it easy.
34:08
I took an easy class, you know, like most
34:11
student athletes, I needed help with my GPA.
34:14
Took a little quick elective, Yeah, elective
34:17
meat production one on one, poetry, meat production
34:19
one on one.
34:20
It was averaging an A minus. I take the class
34:23
and it is easy. Like I'm falling asleep every day,
34:25
Like I'm sleeping class. My professor would
34:27
wake me up, though.
34:29
He would wake me up and make me come to the front
34:31
of the class and he would make me like regurgitate
34:33
some of the stuff that we learned in class. And
34:35
in turn, I started
34:37
to listen to some of the numbers and I'm like, man, hey,
34:40
you go to college and find your plan B. And
34:42
I was like, hey, this this is my plan B and final
34:45
go to the league.
34:45
You know.
34:46
Thank god I was able to go to the league, and
34:48
I was able to be a chicken farmer as well. So it
34:50
just started off by taking an easy class. Man for real,
34:53
gee, gee.
34:55
All right, come on, it's Halloween, so I
34:57
need I need to know bro, Like, what's what's your what's
34:59
your uh, what's your favorite candy?
35:01
Bro?
35:01
I needed what's your what's your top
35:03
two favorite candies, and what's your bottom
35:05
tier?
35:06
I would say, Man, I know you're gonna
35:08
be a little bit disappointed in me, but I
35:10
don't. I don't eat candy.
35:12
I'm not a candy I'm not I'm not a candy
35:14
guy like I I you
35:16
know, I never really I never really
35:18
was a candy guy, even.
35:20
When I was younger.
35:20
But when I started playing football, like professionally,
35:23
like I'm gonna lego Lego, then I'm gonna
35:25
let go a candy. But you know, I've had
35:28
the occasional sour punch
35:30
straw before, like you know, like I
35:32
love the sour punch, and yeah, you
35:34
know, I also love when whenever I
35:36
was eating candy, you
35:40
can't you can't lose with starbirds or anything
35:42
like that.
35:43
And I like the small package
35:45
of the red vns, you know, the red Vins
35:47
licorice.
35:49
Then I would say that how old are you for
35:51
you to like, I'm just saying, I'm
35:53
just saying when I did eat candy, those were things
35:55
that I like, And I would say my bottom tier would be just
35:57
the basics, like I'm not really
36:00
I'm not really a Snickers guy.
36:01
Or like tweaks or rieseus
36:04
Ese's cups.
36:05
Oh man, they overheighted
36:08
right now, overheight.
36:12
So you're you be okay with candy corn?
36:15
Young Young Vaughn and Ben running around the neighborhoods
36:17
with candy corn.
36:18
Yeah, candy corn cool? What
36:22
about you?
36:22
What's your what's your top t your candy and what's your your
36:24
lower to your candy top tier?
36:27
The little fun sized snickers you throw them in the freezer,
36:29
hitting on a different level then gob
36:32
Stoppers, and you know, Skittles
36:35
or something, you know, the sour punch
36:37
kids, you.
36:38
Know, you know they just band skittles
36:40
in Japan.
36:42
Yeah, yeah, and where are we.
36:45
It's murk.
36:50
Skinners go hard too. Then I ain't gonna see act like
36:52
I'm too but I don't eat
36:54
candy. But you know I would agree with you on
36:56
those those candies.
36:58
And you still you still throw them legendary Halloween
37:00
parties. I'm
37:06
just saying, you know, from the Broncos
37:08
had you had legendary joints?
37:10
Man, So I you know I did. I
37:13
am. I am very proud
37:15
of you know, my Halloween parties
37:17
that I used to throw, used to.
37:20
I used to throw the man that was one
37:22
of my that was one of my things, man like I
37:24
don't like to toot my horn on too many different
37:26
things.
37:26
Man, put the function together. It's
37:29
always top tier.
37:30
First and foremost. Man, I am a teen
37:32
guy. I am a I can toot my horn on that.
37:34
I am a teen guy. Not only
37:36
do I know my teammates, but I
37:39
love my teammates. And you just can't love anything.
37:42
I spend time with my teammates. I know about their kids,
37:44
where they went to college, what makes them go, what
37:46
doesn't make them go, like background
37:49
stories.
37:49
Man, I know everything about my teammates. So I can't
37:51
toot my horn on that. And then when it.
37:53
Comes time to entertaining, which that falls
37:55
into being a good teammate, knowing your
37:58
teammates, when it comes to entertained like
38:01
man like I Man, I can
38:03
do that. I've studied the science
38:06
of a partying and entertaining
38:08
and I feel like I have that downpack.
38:11
And one of the things that one of the things that really
38:13
makes it go. Like for me whenever
38:15
I was entertaining was it had to be like
38:18
I give you so. I love Halloween for
38:22
one reason. You can get
38:24
all of these uniforms. Everybody likes to dress
38:26
up and be somebody that they're not, and
38:28
then you have you have fun. You got the alcohol
38:31
and it goes late and you got out your boys.
38:33
Like that's that's a function. For
38:36
me, I've been sober for i've
38:39
been off back. I haven't had a drink of alcohol
38:41
in about ninety eight days.
38:43
So to have a really good party you have to
38:46
have like an alcohol element of
38:48
it.
38:48
And for me, not really a drinker
38:50
either, man, not really, not really a candy guy,
38:52
not really a drinker.
38:54
You know.
38:54
So it's just are you begging out, like what's
38:56
up?
38:56
No?
38:56
No, no, no, no, I'm not I'm
39:00
not not vegan.
39:01
It's just it's to be
39:03
honest, camp man, you know, like, man, it's just it's just
39:05
something I just wanted to try. Man, Like you
39:07
know, the past for something we have. We have our we have
39:09
our beverages and you hang back,
39:12
we've grown me in. But I just I just
39:14
wanted to try something, man, I just wanted to try
39:16
something new and different. And you know,
39:18
it's different when you gotta be when you got
39:20
to be soberen you gotta stop drinking. It's
39:22
different from wanting to be sober and
39:25
wanting to not drink. And that's just where
39:27
I am.
39:27
And I got my kids, and you know, I just wanted to trust
39:30
something, try something new. Man does it? Is it pointless?
39:32
Sometimes?
39:32
Yeah?
39:33
It does feel like that at sometimes, But but
39:36
I'm just trying it. I'm just trying to man, and I
39:39
like where I'm at. Man.
39:40
To be honest, I think when I got traded, it was
39:42
like, okay, like I can kind of
39:44
let go of it. I think a lot of it was me
39:47
holding on to the Halloween party.
39:49
Me.
39:49
Now, I had a huge I
39:53
had a huge fomo problem.
39:54
Like fear of missing out, Like I had a huge I
39:56
want to have a party like every single year.
39:59
And then when you get traded, it's like, okay, I'm
40:01
not like, I'm not in charge of the Halloween
40:03
party no more. And then we come here crazy like it
40:05
is about it. When we came here, my teammates
40:07
just asking me about it. So one, You're gonna
40:09
bring the Halloween party back in Buffalo. I'm like,
40:12
I thought about it. What it's like, No,
40:14
man, I'm just saying to you guys. Man,
40:17
it's saying to say that those days are going for me.
40:19
That makes sense, bro. I let go of the ox
40:21
cord for the first time in like eight years, you
40:23
know.
40:23
Locker room music all that have always
40:26
sort of been in charge, big boom box, I
40:28
got them, I got them blasting.
40:29
I'm getting my guys right like me, yeah man,
40:32
And like this year I was just like, hey,
40:34
man, like y'all play whatever you want to play.
40:36
So now you know you got the dB corner that is strictly
40:39
sponsored by a young boy.
40:41
You know you've got.
40:43
It.
40:43
Turns into work, though, it really turns into work to try to
40:45
please everybody in their.
40:46
Music, Please everybody, no doubt.
40:48
You used to have white guys Wednesdays and like you know,
40:50
like slow down, slow Down Fridays.
40:52
You give out different vibes Caribbean,
40:54
Heribbian vibe Saturdays.
40:57
Have you thought about this though, Cam, Have you thought about
41:00
putting the DJ in the locker
41:02
room? Have you have you thought
41:04
about me? Deon Sanders?
41:07
Deon Sanders and what he's doing. He has a they
41:09
have a DJ. I don't know if they have a
41:11
DJ and their lot they're home out in their regular locker
41:13
room, but for every game they have a DJ
41:16
in the locker room that's playing music.
41:19
You know what if next season they make
41:22
the playoffs and it becomes a win the formula we
41:25
may be able to integrate.
41:26
I mean, just think about it, Like, because before
41:28
the game, you you should
41:30
have a guy in charge of the
41:33
energy element of the game, like you, right, he's
41:35
actually on the team. His job is to get everybody
41:37
hype for the game. And we know football has
41:41
a lot to do with energy too, Like if you have the right
41:43
energy, you can go out there for that three
41:45
hours and play at the level that you wouldn't normally
41:47
play at before a game.
41:49
What what you listen to? Is there a specific
41:51
song, is there a specific ritual? What you
41:54
want?
41:54
So over my thirteenth
41:57
over my thirteen year career, obviously
42:00
you're not gonna be able to have the same routine wherever you
42:02
go. You play in different stadiums at
42:04
different times, and you know, different
42:07
locations.
42:07
This game might be at eight fifteen or
42:10
you might.
42:10
Play at one. So things,
42:12
you know, things come and go. Part of my routine,
42:15
some things come and go. But what I will say is I
42:18
have to do what I have to do before
42:21
every game. Right when I get in, I have to put my pads
42:23
in my shorts immediately, Like while I still
42:26
got on my street clothes, I had to put my pads
42:28
in my pants. I have to put my
42:30
phone on airplane
42:33
mode. Like right when I get in, I put my phone on airplane mode.
42:35
I don't want any I don't want to know
42:38
the urge to look at my phone under that. And
42:41
the song that I have to hear before
42:43
each and every game is Phil Collins
42:45
in the early night, and not just any
42:48
the specific.
42:48
Time that I have to hear it.
42:50
You know how we go out with our pads
42:52
on it say defensive line to come out. We
42:54
go out and we do all warm up, and then we come back
42:56
in. As we are walking in, I
42:58
have to hear that song. Y'all can play whatever y'all
43:01
want the whole time we're here, but when were
43:03
walking in from warm.
43:04
Ups, I man,
43:08
I have to hear this. I've done that for
43:11
every single game in the National Football League.
43:14
It was never expected you to be a Phil Collins
43:16
guy before a game. I'm not.
43:18
It's just that's that's that song, that
43:21
song, because he was like, I've been waiting
43:23
for this moment. My whole life is just put me in this this
43:26
mold, Okay. I've been wanting to play football
43:28
my whole entire life, and now I'm here.
43:30
The moment is here.
43:32
You know, I just kind of zone out and meditate,
43:34
and I have to hear it all the way throughout the whole
43:37
entire song, like don't don't transition
43:39
to the song at the.
43:40
End, don't cut me short, let me let
43:42
me ride. Eight seconds left.
43:43
It has to be zero zero zero
43:46
zero for you to change
43:48
the song when that happens. Like, I'm cool, It
43:50
don't matter about nothing else.
43:51
I'm good.
43:52
Okay, what about you?
43:54
What's what? What's your what's your
43:56
game? What's your game routine?
43:57
Man, I don't know if I have one. I usually
43:59
got to calm myself down. So I'm playing
44:02
like I'm playing. It'd be if if I'm
44:04
too hype, then I gotta bring myself
44:06
down. I'll listen to Symphony number nine.
44:08
Uh, Like you know if I if
44:11
I'm too low, I'll throw on whoever
44:13
you know, thugga, Thugger, I'll put on you know,
44:16
Broadway Future, you know, big, big,
44:18
big toxic king.
44:19
You know what I'm saying.
44:20
Like, but at
44:22
the same time, like right right before we go out,
44:24
you know, like after we do a group prayer,
44:27
it's got to be something violent, so then you know, it's
44:29
either a ben sevenfold, or it's young
44:32
Marshall Mathers, you know what I'm saying, Eminem Kim type
44:34
stuff. Or it's you know, it's fifty
44:36
cent gear rich do try. It's method, man,
44:38
I go into it. I go to that you know, that beast more
44:40
warrior mode. Like that's just that last
44:43
activation, Like all right, we
44:45
were about to put some hands on folks, like you know, you
44:47
know me, I'm bringing. I'm bringing hands to work. So somebody gotta
44:49
get blessed with these things. So I'm
44:52
looking to strike first and then like oh yeah, yea, it's tied
44:54
the pass rush.
44:54
Now sure, man, Like I
44:57
just I gotta if I'm
44:59
too hype, I I think of that as
45:01
a blessing. Like I've been in the moments where
45:03
you gotta where you feel like you gotta, you gotta abb
45:05
yourself up.
45:06
But me being too hype, I love it, man,
45:08
Like I love being either neutral or
45:10
too hype. I'm never like on the opposite side
45:12
like hype myself up. I actually
45:14
feel like it's a concert when you walk about it.
45:16
I feel like, okay, because I've been in so many concerts
45:19
and you see so many stars, so many big stars of heavy
45:21
stadium tours, and then when it's my
45:23
turn, they be like, Okay, Like, this is my stadium,
45:26
this is my concert I'm going to
45:28
I'm going.
45:29
To perform for the people that's watching.
45:30
Man, I'm going to get sex, make make
45:33
big time plays, plays that have changed
45:35
people's lives. Like that's the type of mentality
45:37
that I have out there. So it's always I'm always.
45:39
