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

But anyways, I'm excited, you

9:43

know, I'm excited for everything that's going to happen

9:46

down tonight with the FALM. I'm

9:48

in. It's been all good vibes from you

11:52

whether it might even be Paris where I might

11:54

even run to you.

11:55

11:57

good. It's all love. Man. I appreciate you for having

11:59

11:59

Man. If I remember it was

12:02

you said leading, you said god leading

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

19:51

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

20:06

the Arizona Cardinals, Cliff

20:09

Kingsbury he was with Cliff Kingsbury coach

20:11

20:14

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

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

30:45

33:31

the financials are good, you know when

33:33

33:41

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
