00:02:41 Taylor he's uh, he's standing on business right now. He's standing on business right now
00:02:47 Shout out to Nashville by the way snow day
00:02:49 Nashville similar to Atlanta in the fact that when there's some snow on the ground
00:02:54 They kind of don't know what to do or they don't know how to handle it still roads are covered a little bit
00:02:59 You know, they're like close everything. Yeah, nobody's able to drive anywhere. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah done here. Yeah, it's super frustrating
00:03:06 Nice, how frustrating it's almost comical at this point cuz being here 10 years going on 11
00:03:10 It's like every year. There's a snowstorm ice storm. That's like
00:03:14 It seems like every year this this nationwide storm is coming in right and for two weeks
00:03:19 Nashville has to deal with like everything being shut down. We don't we don't salt the roads
00:03:24 There's no snow plows nothing and I feel like they sit there at Capitol Hill or wherever they're at and they're like
00:03:31 Like boys next year. We're gonna be prepared. Let's buy a couple trucks. Let's do that
00:03:36 And then the weather passing everyone's like fuck it dude, you know, let's just move on
00:03:39 There's no way it's gonna happen again everything down and sure enough here we are
00:03:43 but this is this is good snow usually in
00:03:47 Nashville for those of you that are not in Nashville or the Tennessee area listening to this podcast and want to know a little
00:03:52 about the weather
00:03:53 Usually it's like 40 degrees and it rains that night
00:03:57 It freezes and then the next day you get snow and now we're slip-sliding our way through life for the next two and a half
00:04:03 Weeks. This is a little nicer. It rained a couple days
00:04:05 It was dry for a few days and all of a sudden we got this big
00:04:08 Snow storm and it's like beautiful powder on the ground kids are out there
00:04:12 I don't know what it is with kids and just shoveling snow in their face on a constant like my kids will just lay there
00:04:18 I have no idea how they don't get like
00:04:20 What's it called brain freeze? I don't know why my brain froze with that
00:04:25 But they like just lay on their stomachs and they just pour snow in their mouth over and over like literally
00:04:29 We went a little adventure yesterday and we had to take like snow breaks. I'm thinking myself just there's it's everywhere
00:04:35 You just know me. Yeah, but like just scooping walk. Yeah scooping walk. It was uh, I loved it
00:04:41 I thought it was magical the way the snow was falling. I get felt like Christmas. Hell. Yeah, like we needed
00:04:46 We had just put the tree up
00:04:47 I felt like we needed to get it back out because it was falling nice like it was like peaceful outside
00:04:52 Yeah, there's something about the snow coming down and it's like it doesn't make a sound and then you think to yourself if this was
00:04:59 Rain, it would be so loud. You couldn't even hear yourself. I think it's so much snow
00:05:03 It's soft and quiet and he just hears a crunch under your feet like as you're walking. I
00:05:08 Know JP he took to the tip to the hills that any of you guys go sledding
00:05:13 Those flooding when sport around Shelby Park went down by the river
00:05:18 Yeah, shout out Shelby Park
00:05:22 did the beautiful thing about Nashville when it is like this and everything shuts down is like
00:05:26 It's like everyone just stays in their house. You kind of have like the whole world to yourself for a little bit
00:05:30 It's no day. Nice. No days are great kids. We're loving it. Do we have this hill? You know the hill right by my house?
00:05:35 Yeah, and there is this family out there
00:05:38 One of the dads he's a he's like he's like in this band like a dad band called the dirty dogs
00:05:43 and
00:05:44 They they play in their garage and they just fuck around like once a year like once a year
00:05:47 I'll walk out of my house and there's a band going crazy
00:05:50 I've no idea if they're good or not
00:05:52 But his daughter and his wife were out there sledding
00:05:55 We're all kind of just hanging out and it was a it was nice kids were out there ripping my daughter Willow
00:05:59 Hits this like hits like what I think is a curb in the snow and like sends herself
00:06:06 Hits herself real hard gets up
00:06:08 Dust herself off like it's nothing kids a warrior. Willow is as tough as they come
00:06:13 She is as tough as they come brother. It was sick
00:06:16 No, Rue no sledding for Rue, but we did build a we built a nice little snowman
00:06:21 Yeah, talk to me about that process Paul of building the snowman
00:06:24 Yeah, so you get out there and you said it earlier like it was more powdery snow
00:06:28 So not the most packed and you can't like get a nice roll going and create like this
00:06:32 snowman the old-fashioned way
00:06:35 basically, I would just accumulate as much snow as possible and then I built it up and then slowly and ever so gently like
00:06:41 Continue to pack it in played the long game and then just carved the snowman
00:06:45 It's like it's like when you're trying to make a snowman with your gingerbread house during Christmas
00:06:51 Like you gotta be more gentle with it than you can make it stronger
00:06:54 Yeah, cuz I remember two years ago. You had a nice little snowman in your backyard
00:06:58 So the poor I try to do it this year and look you're talking about the gingerbread house, right?
00:07:03 It was too runny this year. Yeah, it was too runny. Yeah last year
00:07:06 I feel like it was more of a consistency or more thickness to it to where you couldn't make the snowman the blops going up
00:07:11 Yeah, I told Taylor I say you gotta gotta get the cool. Well, yeah. Yeah, we'll juice up the quality next year
00:07:17 That's tough champ, but it was tough. That was a wild turn of events, huh?
00:07:21 We ever talk about that in the show. I don't think so every year we do an annual gingerbread house competition and
00:07:28 Who won it last year?
00:07:30 Probably me
00:07:32 I will say for the sake of this story that will will want it
00:07:35 Well, we had we all did our gingerbread houses and we me like bill wills dad
00:07:40 Stopped caring about five minutes in just sat there with his beer in his hand and his chew
00:07:44 And so he kind of he and I kind of teamed up on a stuff
00:07:46 I had to get a little more creative on my thing. And so we end up doing the gingerbread house and
00:07:52 I podium which was great, but then
00:07:55 What I'll let you explain this because it involves Charles. Oh, yeah. She had a miscount
00:08:01 She had a miscount Charles was the winner
00:08:03 She was the judge at first and
00:08:05 Then afterwards I was so beside myself because I didn't podium because I thought that was bullshit that I should a nice house
00:08:11 Yeah that I should have been a top three gingerbread house. And so I asked her how she counted
00:08:16 I was like, well, how'd you tear the system?
00:08:17 Cuz I could have swore my number was on there a few different times and she just said
00:08:21 Oh if you're just on the list like that was I just gave a point. I was like, oh no, sweetheart
00:08:25 It's first second third. It's three two one. You have to go back. We have to recount
00:08:29 So I'm thinking I'm gonna make my way on the podium now
00:08:32 Unfortunately, I had to learn the hard way that even that way still didn't get me on the podium
00:08:39 But what we did find out is that crazy because Will's house was good. You had a nice house, but to also
00:08:45 Continue to shit on myself like three of my points came from me voting for myself in first place, which is illegal
00:08:51 You can't like vote for yourself. I voted for myself
00:08:56 My dad only put your number down nobody else
00:08:59 And then we learned that Taylor's up winning on the on the point system
00:09:05 So that was the big turn of events on the gingerbread competition now, go ahead with what you know what you want to do
00:09:11 Go ahead
00:09:13 What yeah, that's bro. That's known like
00:09:16 You won. There's got to be some stipulation who won the fantasy league daddy Taylor won the fancy league who cheated
00:09:23 Taylor cheated
00:09:25 Anyway, hey breaking news off the back real breaking news in real time
00:09:30 Erica Nardini is stepping down as Barstool CEO. No, whoa
00:09:35 My Taylor did cheat in the fantasy league
00:09:38 Glue he's the glue gun
00:09:47 He voted obviously voted for himself. My dad only voted for Taylor. So I didn't do anything like that
00:09:54 It's like six total points off the just off the standings which would have lost it for him
00:09:58 What a fucking actually see football tries to trade Mark Andrew for Mark Andrews
00:10:04 Then Mark Andrews hurt that night people have heard he tries to go back on. I'm just I'm just I want everybody have all the facts
00:10:09 That's good
00:10:10 Here it's been a I mean the last month for me has been I mean end of December and January has been a big winning
00:10:16 year for me, but
00:10:18 Next year when we do this fancy, which we are going to do we will have integrity
00:10:22 We will put a clear black and white rules in and we will make sure that everyone does it and hopefully
00:10:28 You guys can unseat the champ unseat the champ
00:10:31 Tom Brady had to flake gate. They still call him champ
00:10:35 So Erica Nardini has stepping down a CEO what it we listen to this you play this out loud
00:10:43 I bear with us. We're about to listen to this video of Erica stepping down as the CEO
00:10:50 It's like she they send her out right away. She's walking out
00:10:53 Hi
00:10:55 I'm stepping down as the CEO
00:11:05 About I was just crying on Metro North
00:11:09 One of the least attractive things and I can walk or too much. I make up for that, but it's been a wild run
00:11:16 I'm so grateful and
00:11:20 I
00:11:22 They went through 70
00:11:27 candidates and all that and
00:11:29 kind of think either nobody wanted the job and I did or they were stupid enough to not see what it could be and I
00:11:35 thought I could make something of it and
00:11:38 What we made of it is like it
00:11:41 Exceeded my wildest expectation and I'm so proud
00:11:45 We grew the company into something. I don't think anybody
00:11:50 Ever thought possible or probable. I think the expectations or the desire that barstool would fail or we're really high
00:11:57 and I think we defied that and I'm
00:12:00 so proud about not just what we've built, but we did it our own way and we did it in our own style and
00:12:07 We did it with our own people and like of our own propulsion and growing a company
00:12:14 5,000% in revenue over
00:12:19 Eight years is awesome. I think the audience grew even more than that. So
00:12:24 It's kind of a weird thing. I mean we exited the company twice in the last year
00:12:29 I feel like the work I came here to do is done
00:12:32 I'm so proud of it. I
00:12:35 Everything I could have ever imagined and wanted to achieve we did
00:12:39 I feel so good about Dave. I'm
00:12:43 so grateful to Dave to for giving me a chance in the first place and I
00:12:49 trusted him and I still trust him and he's the right person to
00:12:54 Make this a pirate ship and I think we went around the Sun a bunch and now it's back exactly where it should be
00:13:01 as it should be and
00:13:03 everything I wanted to do here I did and
00:13:06 I learned more than I could ever have possibly imagined and I gave everything I had so
00:13:14 That's the news. I'm gonna help Dave as long as he needs me. I'm gonna go try to figure out what I want to go
00:13:20 build and do next
00:13:22 get out of the rain in New York and
00:13:24 That's it so Viva
00:13:29 First thoughts
00:13:34 Yeah, I don't know
00:13:35 I wonder if something happened but then again like she alluded to the pirate ship back to being where where it wants to be and
00:13:41 maybe
00:13:43 It's just like maybe that's just
00:13:45 The vision that Dave has for it to where there's not her position or maybe maybe not her position
00:13:51 But maybe they go look for somebody else
00:13:53 Somebody kind of grow and get into that world of like pin and everything else is no longer happening
00:13:58 So I'm not sure. I think she's stayed there a while like CEOs usually have like a
00:14:04 Not a shelf life, but usually they figure out what they want to do
00:14:08 They build it stay there as long as they stay there. What is it like five years? I think it's the average
00:14:13 Yeah, that was the point
00:14:15 I was gonna bring up is it like it seemed as though she was there much longer than the average CEO
00:14:20 And I don't know that my first initial thought and I have no idea is Dave is taking more more of the reins of this whole
00:14:26 Thing now, yeah, cuz I'm stepping down Dave's right man do it and that little tiny little quote to me is like
00:14:33 All right, Dave is truly taking him back to Dave Portnoy's barstool
00:14:36 Yeah, I might interesting cuz he's I mean he's in Florida. He's in a whole bunch of different areas. He doesn't live in New York
00:14:42 Mm-hmm. He doesn't live in Chicago
00:14:44 Yeah
00:14:45 it'll be it'll be interesting to see how like his
00:14:47 Processes not being in the office every day because a lot of what you see from like the old barstool stuff is
00:14:52 Him him being in the office and kind of being on everyone's ass, right?
00:14:58 Which is you know, it's a reason why Barstow was so successful
00:15:01 It's a major reason why people were down each other's throat
00:15:04 Yeah, and he was he was one of the guys that would walk in and stir it up
00:15:09 He was on a show the other day talking about this talking about
00:15:12 Frank the tank and he went to a Dolphins game or he went to a sports game that he really liked a
00:15:21 Sports team that he liked and he left
00:15:23 Before and they end up coming back and winning
00:15:25 I don't remember that what the team was and
00:15:27 Dave was like if I was in the office that would be a story for an entire week
00:15:31 I would have made sure that like lived longer than it actually did
00:15:34 Since he was out of the office. So it'll be interesting to see the dynamic for sure
00:15:38 Oh, yeah, I wonder if they'll bring anybody else in
00:15:40 Yeah, I wonder it just kind of seems like Dave's off the click on that zip recruiter link
00:15:45 See what's going on in front of him trying to become CEO of Barstow. Yeah
00:15:50 I'll do it 50% owner of bust one of the boys and CEO of Barstow. Yeah. Hell yeah, dog build that thing up
00:15:55 It's called double dipping
00:15:57 No doubt Wow boys any thoughts on that in the back
00:16:02 No, perfect. I mean shut out Erica a long time
00:16:06 Yeah, she's been pivotal for us and you know being being with bar so how long that five six years five years
00:16:12 2016 whatever that is
00:16:15 60 no, that's no he got my us. Yeah
00:16:18 2019 right 2019. Yeah 2019. Yeah. Yeah going so going into our fifth year. Yeah
00:16:27 That's why we've been here for five years. No a lot of turnover. There's been a lot of turnover to it
00:16:32 Yeah, so yeah, they just had kind of that big
00:16:34 the big
00:16:36 You know
00:16:38 What is it called round of layoffs?
00:16:40 Earlier in the year. Yep, coach dogs
00:16:42 Yeah
00:16:45 You had to go
00:16:49 Should we get into the football should we get in the football?
00:16:51 We got eight teams standing after the weekend the Texans beat the shit out of the Browns
00:16:56 Chiefs handled the Dolphins
00:17:00 Buffalo
00:17:01 In my opinion beat the shit out of the Steelers. Yeah, they beat the shit
00:17:05 Yeah, mop the floor with the Lions Rams was so fun to watch
00:17:08 I was kind of I didn't matter who won but it's like you're rooting for both teams to kind of score each time like all
00:17:13 Let's make the situation even better
00:17:15 Packers handled the Cowboys and the Cowboys once again are just in disarray with
00:17:20 How you can get better after going 12 and 5 what three years in a row went into division
00:17:25 And then finally the Eagles
00:17:28 Falling he goes man Eagles are done. He goes are done done in what way like they're they're gone. See you later on
00:17:34 When they won the Super Bowl
00:17:37 Back in what was that? I will just say 2016 because I can't remember
00:17:40 I'm I'm pretty sure the next year they lost in the wild card again, and there was some changing going on
00:17:46 So there that seems like a team that ends up reloading quicker than other teams
00:17:50 Dead got it
00:17:52 Jason Kelsey just retired which is wild. There's a lot of holes that they're gonna have to fill
00:17:57 Yeah, the big difference from last year's Eagles this year's Eagles. Everybody's talked about it is how the coordinators aren't there anymore
00:18:02 So they all fence like everything about them. They've had no defense
00:18:07 We should have known like I should have known that in the gambling world like a team without any defense isn't gonna do that
00:18:12 Well, yeah, it's off the Baker Mayfield and the boys. I know it's playing strong still having fun
00:18:17 You see a clip of him on timeout
00:18:19 Little squirt just doing fun stuff
00:18:25 Yeah, I'm in Philly donking these boys right now just doing my thing and they did handle them
00:18:30 Handle got a sucked. It's it sucked to watch for the Eagles because they just they've really well
00:18:36 How many they lose in the last like last five out of six games?
00:18:38 What if the Eagles just folded in Kelsey retires Lane Johnson might retire
00:18:47 He's getting older to the back ends getting older. Who knows what's happened KB, even though they just traded for KB. What if
00:18:54 Jack
00:18:55 Ran gets on the phone and decides you know what? I want AJ Brown back. Oh, that's where you're going. I was
00:19:02 I was going toward I thought you're gonna say Mike Vrabel now becomes the head coach for Kevin Byron and AJ Brown again
00:19:12 While bring variable to Philly
00:19:17 Man you think is it Sirianni does name they're saying Sirianni is gonna get fired, which is great. I know but man, I know
00:19:25 McCarthy should be gone - I don't know about Sirianni. I thought but McCarthy I think go
00:19:33 Yeah, I thought last week Sirianni was crazier than it is now, but
00:19:42 What's he back there saying you said we won the Philly guys and we won because
00:19:47 Sirianni should get fired. You just lost 32 to 9 to the Bucs and you just had the biggest fall from grace
00:19:55 Maybe in the last decade hit him Jack last year. He's still talking Jack
00:20:01 I know and then you guys just lost how many games in the back half of the season. Okay, then stop talking
00:20:06 So Sirianni guy, I like I'm on like both sides here
00:20:10 It's like I can understand if he gets fired I guess because of the ownership with the Eagles like Peterson
00:20:15 He won the Sierra Bowl men once he had a bad year. They fucking canned him
00:20:18 So this ownership group probably is going to fire Sirianni. I
00:20:21 Like I don't necessarily think so either I think like I agree with that
00:20:28 39 on the big yeah, but yeah, but Jack a bad wild cards a big a nine and eight
00:20:34 Buccaneers team
00:20:38 Oh
00:20:40 Nine and eight team. So if a team gets blown out in the Super Bowl, they should get the coach
00:20:44 You're fired there. There's been a lot of things leading up from the last seven weeks with the Eagles. Yeah, they've gone backwards, dude
00:20:51 Yeah, a lot of question marks
00:20:52 I saw I saw a clip in October about the Eagles how and it's like this
00:20:58 Conspiracy theory and literally the end of the clip was they will lose in the wild card round and their OC
00:21:03 Yeah
00:21:04 OC like went to the Colts and then back in 2016 after that season that OC went to the Colts and there was a whole
00:21:09 bunch of different things that were like
00:21:11 When you look at history, it's like oh you kind of look at you like oh shit's adding up
00:21:14 I wish I had more of a recall on it cuz
00:21:16 You know the coach ended getting fired after that too. So who knows up until the loss last night
00:21:22 I did not want Sirianni nor did I think he should be fired. But that was a really bad game by the Eagles
00:21:28 It was they didn't have AJ Brown. Okay, that's one player
00:21:32 Wait, what AJ Brown?
00:21:34 Defense didn't play well defense has a lot
00:21:39 Defense though
00:21:42 But I think his name's Sean Desai was their defensive coordinator for the first 11 or 12 weeks and then they gave it to Matt Patricia
00:21:50 And then I had to shake something up because that's when everything went bad like Sean decide they were 10 and 1 10 and 2
00:21:56 No, they were 10 and 1 before they and then they gave it to Patricia and then they sucked
00:22:01 I
00:22:03 Yeah, I don't disagree I feel like he should have
00:22:06 He should at least have the opportunity to try to answer these question marks going in next year
00:22:11 And if they start off bad fire him in the middle of the year
00:22:13 Get his ass out of there, but to think like oh, he's got to be gone after this year though
00:22:17 It was the coroners. It wasn't this like at the end of the day
00:22:20 They they gambled wrong a couple pieces pieces on defense like Slade lost a step
00:22:24 No one thought he would lose a step in a corner, you know that shit matters shit matters
00:22:29 Yeah bad at tackling it was a bad game. I would fix that immediately I
00:22:33 Just want to see variable go to the Eagles just so he's the head coach of a
00:22:38 Cowboys, I think you give Rable that much talent on the Cowboys
00:22:42 Contenders you think brave kid you think very would want to work with Jerry Jones
00:22:47 Probably not but let me let me see I think you know, babes probably on the bus hang out for a second
00:22:53 He'd enjoy it boys out of rain. Be having a good time. Yeah, here's what I think
00:22:59 my scenario
00:23:00 Rable gets McCarthy obviously gets fired Rable goes to the Cowboys
00:23:05 Who's this first call Jim Schwartz?
00:23:08 Calls Jim Schwartz says hey, sorry what happened in Cleveland?
00:23:12 Come be my DC at the Cowboys now that you have so many good players on defense the way he runs his defense fixed
00:23:19 Mmm, his next call he makes mmm Arthur Smith
00:23:23 Mmm. Hey, I'm sorry what happened in Atlanta, you know what it is
00:23:27 Let's get the band back together and get us 35 points a game again like he did with less talent
00:23:32 At the Titans. Welcome to Dallas Mike Rable and that you bring Mike Rable and those two key points
00:23:40 Now the whole mainstream Palooza on the Cowboys every single year. I will buy into what was your other two points? I'm sorry
00:23:48 DC I feel like it is a dick
00:23:51 I know
00:23:53 Coordinator Schwartz. Yes, the OC Arthur Smith and what if also
00:23:58 Eric Henry follows suit and comes with Rable. I
00:24:02 Don't think it's a bad idea. I don't think that's a bad idea. I don't either
00:24:08 Not hear those coordinator names that is Cowboys fans
00:24:16 If you want to be successful if you want all this praise to be legit has it hasn't been for so many years
00:24:23 You need Mike Rable. You need Arthur Smith and you need Jim Schwartz. You make those three things happen
00:24:28 You have a contending Super Bowl football team. So Mike great tools Mike Rable to the Cowboys
00:24:34 Harbaugh to the Chargers. Mm-hmm
00:24:37 AP to the Raiders. Yeah
00:24:40 Who's going to New England? Oh, wait, wait
00:24:43 May already got already got that mayor who's one of the Panthers have a Panther Bell check to the Falcons
00:24:48 I saw he I saw he did an interview. That would be wild to see Belichick in Atlanta
00:24:53 I know it'll be wild to see him really anywhere. I had a wild dream last night
00:24:57 That was a wild not too wild but for this for this conversation. It was kind of wild. I had a dream
00:25:03 I was at Harbaugh's house and he was giving me inside ball and everything and he's like, you know where I'm going next
00:25:09 I was like, oh what NFL team we're going to he was not well
00:25:11 I'm going to college but I'm going to a different football team, Nebraska. I'll just get dude, South Carolina. Oh
00:25:17 You take our ball JP
00:25:20 You one time hey shout out coach Shane Beamer tweeting JP of II
00:25:27 understanding the asset he has
00:25:30 He right here in Nashville, Tennessee. That is big
00:25:33 Big recruiting moment. Hey Shane have us out for the spring game. We'll coach a spring game now spring game get the head on
00:25:40 We got to figure out where what our next move could be our next spring game coaching. Yeah
00:25:44 You want to cut what you want to come sit
00:25:49 Hey who's gonna be the coach of the Titans
00:25:54 No, Dan Quinn
00:25:58 Dan Quinn to Seattle. Yeah game
00:26:01 Yeah him too. I'd like been Johnson or Bobby so but Ben Johnson I think's gonna go to raise you against Brown Ben Johnson
00:26:09 I think it's gonna go to
00:26:11 They're talking Philly if
00:26:13 Where's Ben Johnson it?
00:26:15 Wait, wait, wait, are you Johnson - uh, you know one very be a brave could come here to Washington
00:26:21 Washington got a nice little job opening now. I
00:26:26 Wonder what that the I don't disagree with you
00:26:29 I wonder how that like new ownership is because there's not like a much of a sample size like, you know
00:26:33 If you go to the Panthers, you have to have immediate success. Otherwise, you're fucked done. Yeah with Washington to me
00:26:39 it's like
00:26:40 New group of guys. I'm pretty sure other later celebrities that bought into the Washington, correct?
00:26:45 Magic Johnson like there's a lot of guys with big personalities there
00:26:48 Like where's their patience level at when it comes to developing the Washington franchise?
00:26:54 And so I me personally would be a little more nervous to go there as opposed to you see I
00:26:59 Jerry Jones who?
00:27:02 Had coaches for a long time and kind of like lets things truly bleed out for as long as possible
00:27:07 There's a guy that's a lot of but the new ownership with Washington now with Snyder out like to me
00:27:12 It's it's nothing but greener grass with a new ownership. I agree with that statement
00:27:16 I just don't know how greener the grass is. I
00:27:18 Personally if I'm a head coach, I want to go somewhere where I know what the expectation is based on history. That makes sense
00:27:25 Yeah, and so yeah, I don't hate I don't hate I don't hate variable to to Washington what I do haters are uniforms
00:27:31 They're so lame
00:27:34 that W I
00:27:36 The name all of it
00:27:38 Why their universe used to be so cool and let's not get it twisted now like with the Titans

00:29:46 back to the episode
00:29:48 Let's uh, let's get into we already did a little recap on these games. Let's go into next week divisional games
00:29:54 Sitting there. Was it four teams left?
00:29:57 We do we want to talk who's winning or we want to talk spreads? What are we doing here?
00:30:02 Let's just talk who's winning. We'll leave the spreads for slips and picks slips and picks
00:30:06 You can find that Thursday evening six. Wait, wait, wait, what time we drop in slips and picks?
00:30:13 Didn't know jack had one
00:30:15 You know jack got him for the Philly thing, yeah, that's how you ruffle his feathers Thursday night 6 p.m. Central Time
00:30:22 Slips and picks we talk all things NFL gambling spreads props all the things the boys
00:30:29 Taylor and Delaney they each went 10 and to your boys sitting right here went 7 and 4. We're very prosperous
00:30:35 Yeah, very prosperous. But yeah, we'll do that slips and picks. But right now we're gonna talk who's gonna win in advance of the next round
00:30:42 Let's start it off Taylor Texans Ravens. I
00:30:44 Think Texans have a shot to beat them. I know we're not talking spreads
00:30:49 They're definitely gonna cover that big-ass spread
00:30:51 But I think what we saw out of the Texans at a CJ Stroud three touchdowns in the first half
00:30:56 The defense is playing they're swarming to the football. They're vice tackling
00:31:00 they're gathering themselves an open field tackle and
00:31:03 The sample size I have for the Ravens to come out flat is obviously 2019
00:31:07 but
00:31:10 Mars got that Kobe Bryant kind of mamba mentality right now and that scares me. This is a this is a pass goodwill
00:31:16 Oh, you're not picking the game. Well, I said pass. I'm give me the Ravens
00:31:20 I think we can fall into a lot of excitement a lot of fluff a lot of that window dressing with the Texans
00:31:26 They are playing really good football, but let's not forget about how good the fucking Ravens are
00:31:31 They beat the shit. They beat the brakes off of all the you know, they beat the hell out of the Niners
00:31:35 They've taken care of basically
00:31:37 The majority of the playoff teams. Yeah. No. Yeah, and not only the majority of the playoff teams
00:31:42 They beat the brakes up the 49ers. Yeah, I like I think the Ravens win this game and they're at home
00:31:47 It's like Texans. They were at Houston Joe Flacco. You called it on some pigs Joe Flacco is good for an interception
00:31:52 Oh wait, he was good for two interceptions one back to the house. Yes, I think I think one got
00:31:57 Yeah, two votes for pigs. Yes
00:32:00 Yes, spread is the spread is eight and a half right now. Yeah, I know. Yeah, but we can't talk spreads
00:32:06 All great comments, here's what I like to see
00:32:09 I want to see the Ravens how they did and after their biweek this past year
00:32:12 That's gonna tell me that's gonna tell me where I'm gonna sit here. They won who they play the Lions
00:32:17 Right, they played they ended up winning cuz I bet against them thinking that they would have a lull
00:32:23 After the biweek, maybe not Mars just got that. He's got that killer that killer mentality right now. I like the Ravens
00:32:30 I'll go I'll go Ravens Packers Niners. Listen, I
00:32:34 Think the Packers Jordan love it's it's crazy. We're talking with Steven about this before the show
00:32:39 Jordan love is incredible. He is awesome, but
00:32:43 You saw my number one rooting for list and I believe they have more talent. They have better coaching
00:32:49 Shanahan's year to finally get the monkey off his back of like figuring the whole thing out
00:32:54 I'm gonna take the 49ers here against the Packers better coaching
00:32:57 Yeah, that was probably too strong because I love Lafleur well
00:33:03 yeah that but also
00:33:05 like
00:33:07 What I'm doing loves and Aaron Rodgers gone in the youngest team in the league
00:33:11 I know that's and that's where I feel like the 49ers will take advantage of that and that but we can walk away the Packers
00:33:17 Regardless of the score this game if it's a 30 to 9 game just like the Eagles and the Bucs
00:33:22 They're walking away going we got a fucking
00:33:24 Next year we are we're contenders. Yeah, I like the Niners - I just think they have too much too much firepower
00:33:31 Too much firepower and too much of a chip on the shoulder like they've been in this situation so many times
00:33:36 Or it's like this just feels like the year for me with the Niners the doubt
00:33:40 Oh, so the they'll hear the doubt creep in though like Packers
00:33:43 That's the shitty part of having the bye week is these teams play and there by cycle
00:33:47 The Texans the Packers like they'll start hearing that noise
00:33:50 It'll be real like people will really start thinking like Packers are gonna win this game Packers have a shot to win this game
00:33:55 Yeah, they have a shot to win this game. It's a it's a big spread to which we're not gonna get into but I
00:34:00 Got the Niners man, fucking ears Lions
00:34:03 Lions
00:34:05 Lions, yeah, I like lines. Yeah. Yeah, I like lines dude. It was a
00:34:09 Watching that game like you can you can feel like sitting on your couch like
00:34:15 Imagine how loud it was in that stadium
00:34:19 Yeah, and the minutes the Rams scored you felt like you weren't hearing anything on the on on the television
00:34:25 I don't know why I was bumping around with that
00:34:27 but you just know that that fan base is so fucking dialed into this year the players feel it the staff feels it like Dan
00:34:34 Campbell like
00:34:36 Lions got a real shot to take the whole fucking thing. Oh, bro. I
00:34:40 Know I what's their future? I think the Lions and Niners
00:34:44 If our NFC championship, I love that. I love that. Yeah fires me up
00:34:51 What was the last game? I didn't even
00:34:55 Chiefs bills the fucking chiefs seem like they were back on track. They seem like they're a playoff Chiefs
00:35:00 I know whether I think the bills handle I know you do
00:35:05 This is no, I think no, I say that I'm speaking like I think the bills handle them from a football eye
00:35:11 What do you mean
00:35:14 Like not the bias against like the Chiefs wanting to lose like I wanted to who the Chiefs just played Dolphins
00:35:20 I think I was picking the Chiefs to win
00:35:22 Did he yeah, I picked the Chiefs cuz you're like, hey don't don't do that. Like, you know, I'm gonna get some cuz then that'll happen
00:35:29 Yes, I
00:35:31 Think this to me is like the Rams Lions last week like I'm excited for a good game
00:35:36 I think this game is gonna turn into a shootout that we saw a few years ago in the AFC championship
00:35:40 And it's gonna just be awesome. I think this is gonna be a game
00:35:43 Whoever is the ball last is gonna win the game. I would be happy for either team
00:35:50 You'd be happy for I'd rather not rather I'd rather a come on I'd rather the bills win
00:35:54 I'd rather the bills when the cheese have had enough success. Where was the Chiefs on your wasn't chiefs on your no
00:35:59 They weren't on my list. They weren't my list. That's why I just did that just now
00:36:02 In Arrowhead, these are the Super Bowl champions right here
00:36:07 It's in Buffalo my fault I'm all over the place. Yeah, and this ain't look Buffalo ain't the fucking feels dude. Give me the bills
00:36:17 God you like the Chiefs
00:36:20 JP you like bills
00:36:22 He does well. No, I just think I think that you know, we got that triple boost
00:36:25 You saw the commercial winning got an appointment before I came here. It's why we had to
00:36:29 See if I'm keeping the rest of the boys safe. You know how it is
00:36:33 Yeah, I saw Travis Kelsey the way y'all should be wearing masks that close together
00:36:36 So that commercial with Kelsey's I let me get an appointment for yeah
00:36:41 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you're right. I think the bills I mean
00:36:48 Yeah, okay, I'll take the bills
00:36:50 It's hard that's a good that's a tough game I think of all these games
00:36:54 the horse want to pick
00:36:57 It's like I'd love to go copper championship in the Super Bowl, but we do that
00:37:00 We would do that just one week at a time one week at a time. You can go quick
00:37:04 Should we get into do what but if we were to you know, I'm thinking bills
00:37:11 nine or Super Bowl I
00:37:14 Don't hate that at all
00:37:17 That's what you picked last week. Yeah
00:37:19 Looks like it's all working out
00:37:24 Chaos Super Bowl chaos Super Bowl
00:37:30 Lions Texans. Yes. Yeah
00:37:35 That'd be so sick chaos Packers. I was gonna say hackers lions Packers. What the fuck am I saying Texans?
00:37:44 You like the Texas man, it's all good. I do like the Texans I do like it's over the Titans. It's over
00:37:51 No, that's not what I'm not gonna like also be a fan of the Texans. I think you hate the Titans now. It's all good
00:37:56 No, hey when Taylor got done
00:38:01 They're all talking about him Ben Jones all the boys. So I'm about reestablishing something at Tennessee year later. They're all bounced
00:38:11 Was this I'm saying like when you been like when that generation goes it's like now we got to really establish something
00:38:17 Which was true at the time
00:38:18 We got to really establish something here culture like bringing like Nashville something to be proud of you're later. Everybody's fucking gone
00:38:25 That is nuts. Dude. The NFL is just fucking crazy. It is crazy
00:38:30 But yeah, I think yeah, I do I do like the Texans. I thought I like the Texans. I like CJ Stroup. I
00:38:37 Think when we met with him on zoom seeing the way he handled himself seeing the way he handles all the press conferences
00:38:43 It's always like we did a great job. Not I did a great job
00:38:47 And it just seems like he handles himself at a maturity level that a 22 year old
00:38:51 You don't see and that fires me the fuck up and it's getting me to be like I kind of
00:38:56 Like Texans right now. I don't like the Texans you kind of like
00:39:01 Jack
00:39:03 You talking about call for Bobby slowing?
00:39:05 Yeah, I want an OC - coach to just dominate in the first you enjoy watching them right now like man
00:39:11 I kind of like
00:39:13 This is our good ballclub and I'm happy for CJ Stroud
00:39:20 In a Jersey Collins look y'all y'all it's all good y'all are wearing the same retro jerseys, but now it's for Houston
00:39:27 It ain't for Tennessee. Yeah
00:39:29 That's solid. No, I'm just fucking with you guys
00:39:32 But you're right like you let you enjoy root for CJ Stroud coach Ryan's in his first year
00:39:36 Like you can't help but to like see that staff and yo, what is so funny about Bobby slow it Bobby slow it I
00:39:42 Forget look up his dad. I think it's Bob
00:39:45 but
00:39:49 Bobby slow dad
00:39:51 Yeah, Bob is that's Bob his dad, right
00:39:58 Yeah, this is him Bob. Yeah, Bob and that's Bobby nuts Bobby slow it scroll down career history
00:40:04 Look where he was in 2013. Yes, Washington. He was the Washington Redskins linebacker coach knew he was Bob
00:40:11 Slow it was my linebackers coach his son Bobby at the time Bobby's what 36 years old right now young so
00:40:17 That was what 2003 10 years ago. He's 25 26 years old
00:40:22 He was the assistant linebackers coach like the intern sitting in the room and it's nuts to me
00:40:28 Like knowing that he is now the OC of the Texans and is about to be a very sought-after
00:40:35 Head coach whether it's in a year or two years
00:40:38 But it is so crazy to me because he was your guys's age just sitting in our linebacker room like as his dad's son
00:40:45 Basically like trying to get in he was coaching outside backers like, you know, hey two yards deep
00:40:49 Don't get past two yards deep. You got to set that you got to set the wall here
00:40:52 And it's just like you had this young kid trying to tell Ryan Kerrigan and Brian Iraq Poe
00:40:56 Things are trying to coach them and get them right not that people shit on Bobby
00:41:00 I'm not saying that at all
00:41:01 But it's so funny knowing that he was like them last year and now he's like an OC for the Texans about to get a head
00:41:07 Job, maybe get a head job, bro
00:41:09 You are seeing if you're listening to the show or watching the show
00:41:12 You are watching the pros of being somewhat of a journeyman in the league does will not know fucking everybody
00:41:18 in every team somehow
00:41:21 It is crazy, there just better be a 30 for 30
00:41:24 Zoned out the entire time that it's I have no idea what you just said, but I'm happy
00:41:29 And you brought up an insane point Jack. You're right
00:41:34 He goes exactly like with that tree that was there during that time the LeFleur McVeigh
00:41:40 Shanahan slow ik
00:41:43 Big no. No, I don't think me Danny was there was he?
00:41:47 Daniel was that Washington? Are you there? I don't remember coach McDaniel being there. I
00:41:54 Don't know if he was I think you guys are wrong. Just go to just go to Mike McDaniel and go to his Wikipedia
00:42:01 Wide receivers coach. Oh my god. I did not know is this the greatest coaching staff to never do it
00:42:09 He'll that staff was fire and Chris Forrester
00:42:13 He's got a job right now with the Niners
00:42:15 But I'm pretty sure he had a massive falling out a few years ago
00:42:17 All right, sorry Chris, I'm just saying like you check out that we got that headline he was uh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah
00:42:26 Do you know the headline I'm talking about and look that I go ahead you can look that up in your own time
00:42:33 Just Jack was but yeah, bro. That staff was insane
00:42:38 But Bobby slug, man
00:42:43 We got a rea a kind of we got to remake that graphic go ahead you can toss your boy in there
00:42:48 So we want Bobby slow ik
00:42:52 For the Titans job. Is that what we're that's that where we went to is that how we got here?
00:42:55 Do what Bobby slow for the Titans job? I?
00:42:57 Think that's what Jack would like to see kind of who knows if he's ready for a head coaching job
00:43:02 Yeah, I don't know if you is just you know, I see one like positive game and it's fun. It's like damn
00:43:07 Let's get that in the Titans
00:43:11 I think he might need another he might need another year
00:43:13 So like the only I think it was McVeigh was one year and then went to head coach because he like got in the room
00:43:19 And he absolutely wowed the Rams like he was more so going on the interview circuit just to like, you know
00:43:24 It's just like being an alternate for the Pro Bowl like next year. You'll probably make it type of thing
00:43:28 He's just going to get acclimated to the interview process and then the Rams didn't let him leave because he just fucking crushed it
00:43:33 So you just never know what these OCS who are gonna be interviewing?
00:43:36 years later
00:43:40 Welcome to Tennessee Bobby slug bro. He comes to Tennessee. He's definitely coming on the bus

00:44:42 I'll reenact his dad for that's why I did the talent show my rookie year
00:44:47 I was like his dad and I had everybody else act different positions and I just ran a coaches meeting the whole time
00:44:52 Basically what I did with Rable
00:44:54 Every people think was nice
00:44:59 deal
00:45:01 Yeah, do you want to do a twisted question shouting of her shouter keep talking ball
00:45:07 Is there anything do I feel like we do yeah, we're 43 and we still got another hour
00:45:12 Another way 43 minutes. We got another hour seven. Yeah, we got another hour seven for Mitch
00:45:18 But to say
00:45:22 Number one respects we got it. We got to take the hats off Jason Kelsey one of the greatest centers to ever play the game
00:45:28 retiring
00:45:30 Gone but not forgotten
00:45:35 Amen I
00:45:37 Wonder if they would have won the Super Bowl last year if you had retired last year
00:45:40 Probably yeah for sure, right, you know, he's got to be like fuck. Why'd I come back? Yeah
00:45:45 Gotta be tight about that. You knew he probably felt that in early December when things weren't going well for them
00:45:50 He's just like god damn it. I bet he gave us
00:45:53 had to
00:45:55 Had to him. You saw him walking off the field. It looked like he was the last guy in the on the
00:45:59 I think so. He started like hugging dudes on the sideline like yeah, the game people knew
00:46:04 And you know everybody's like hey like
00:46:06 Announce it within the next 24 hours. Like let's just sleep on it. Like let's take some time
00:46:10 He knew I mean he did like I'm getting I'm what's next for him. I think he'd do great on TV
00:46:15 He'd be great in the night. He'd be great on the Monday night
00:46:18 Like I feel like that could be a lane for him that he would slay. Yeah in America loves him
00:46:23 You know what? I mean? He's like, uh, he is like kind of like Captain America. Yeah
00:46:28 Yeah, he's the most loved Kelsey the disrespected Travis. You don't think you think he's the most loved Kelsey
00:46:34 I think Travis is the most popular but I think everybody loves seeing the you know
00:46:39 Jason as part of the big bro, and he's like all this guy, you know, he's very well said
00:46:43 Yeah, he's got his head on straight type of thing. Yeah, no, you know, yeah having a good time. Where's the fun outfits?
00:46:49 Yeah, you can tell he's a fun dad. Yeah, they get out there and rip around a little bit
00:46:53 Yeah, get the family stuff going on cuz Travis you don't have a family yet. Yeah, it'll be interesting to see
00:46:57 Maybe one day it'll be interesting to see what happens with the new Heights podcast
00:47:02 Cuz it's a seasonal podcast right? It just happens during the season. Yeah, they do a great job during football season
00:47:07 You guys do a great job. I love how you guys get your rest in the offseason
00:47:10 Yeah, we love how they get the rest of the only way to get the rest
00:47:13 No, they do they crush it though. Yeah, Jason. He will be a stud
00:47:16 When whatever he does he goes into coaching?
00:47:20 No, there's no way now. I just can't see being in it being a player for as long as we were
00:47:25 I cannot imagine being a coach. I know you wanted to coach. Yeah, I still might get back in there one day
00:47:31 Really? I think my face
00:47:33 No, not like the pod and then no, I don't know
00:47:36 I just think like I have no clue who knows what the future holds, but I there's always that little itch. It's like
00:47:41 You know you want to you know, we should do is just one year
00:47:47 Coco to high school football team. I think that'd be I
00:47:50 Think that'd be awesome. But I think if you pour into this high school is for one year
00:47:55 There ain't no just one year about it
00:47:57 Well, what high school do you guys want to do in the local area just in Nashville if you have what's the worst one?
00:48:02 Prior Ravenwood High School
00:48:06 And that's a good joke
00:48:10 All right, we'll do Ravenwood. All right. Yeah, we're back you get a burn Ravenwood basketball game
00:48:17 But your Ravenwood well that means you only have one place and that's the home of the Bruins the burn wood
00:48:23 High Bruins, baby, and that'd be a rivalry game for the ages. So I
00:48:28 Yeah, I just think coaching would be fun. Like I've always wanted to coach. He just moved away from that
00:48:33 I was just I'm now I'm getting hyped up for the Bruins. Let's go
00:48:36 Getting hyped up bad imagining myself on the sideline with the Bruins man
00:48:40 Not to bring you bring him a state championship. How many y'all have one in the last like I think maybe one ever and it was
00:48:47 2000 bring it home. Hey, let's you chase the second one. We need that
00:48:52 But
00:48:54 No, I'm with you say why play that so long and then go go into another career where the hours are even longer
00:49:00 Right going into it with less money and then the way you have to work up. You're essentially just starting over
00:49:06 Yeah, but I'll do I would do it as but I would go I would have to be a position coach right out of the gate
00:49:13 You beat yeah you buy swing I think I think network wise I'd be I could yeah, I could make that happen
00:49:20 Yes, would you want to do college or NFL? Mmm, I would want to do NFL really?
00:49:26 It's like I don't want to have the double job of recruiting and coaching. Yeah
00:49:31 at all times
00:49:34 Yeah, that in the NFL you just get to coach but what I would love more about college is they're younger
00:49:40 It's like the business is you know, even though NIL is there now
00:49:43 But you're you can you can imprint them on more you can imprint on them more than you could NFL guys
00:49:48 Like and if all guys could be just like a revolving door, you know, I get that
00:49:52 I think college would be more fun. Just the vibes of a college town and then developing 18 and 22 year olds. Yeah
00:49:59 You want to like you see them like gaining skills that you've taught them
00:50:05 I think it's awesome
00:50:06 the recruiting part would suck like being on the travel all the time and the offseason going to I had a flight on to
00:50:11 Louisiana to get this guy or whatever, but I feel like NIL is going to
00:50:14 Metal evolve into something like hey, how much you want? I will see what you do. Yeah
00:50:18 Like you're not doing business. You're more so just letting your agent at that point. Yeah, let him talk negotiating
00:50:25 Someone had a unique take I wonder if you guys like this or not. So with how college is developing where
00:50:31 32 there's 32 NFL teams each team buys two college teams. So it becomes a minor league team
00:50:38 Each team buys two teams. So like let's just say you would buy, Michigan, Nebraska
00:50:45 Yes, that'd be hilarious two teams to buy
00:50:47 Yeah
00:50:48 Yeah
00:50:48 They buy two teams and they put a salary cap and becomes a minor league of the NFL and then you cycle your guys through
00:50:54 Where you can go from like you take your guys from Nebraska to your guys from Michigan and then that's how you get them
00:50:59 in the developmental league
00:51:00 I haven't thought this through whatsoever, but I kind of I don't I've kind of fucked with it you fuck with it
00:51:07 Yeah, I hate it
00:51:08 Yeah
00:51:09 completely tears apart college football
00:51:11 It kills college football and it's such a passionate fan base and all that and then like the idea of like you can only go like
00:51:16 Cuz you're in you went to that school you essentially to be like what NFL team do I want to go to?
00:51:21 Oh, I want to go to
00:51:22 The Eagles so I need to go to these two colleges now
00:51:25 Yeah, you know the college spirit out of it the college period completely leaves
00:51:29 Just like I was on it now. I'm off it gone. Yeah, that's the best
00:51:33 That's the best we're catching you early. Yeah, if I give you time to think about stuff
00:51:36 It's like you become too cemented in that opinion
00:51:38 Yeah, let's hit this twisty question dude. All right Mitch. Here we go twisty question brought to us by twisted tea
00:51:45 Keep it twisted with the boys the smoothest heart iced tea out there kicking off the New Year right championship season championship drinks

01:05:53 Yeah, cuz we basically made him like cuss like are you sure you don't want to change it?
01:05:58 And then he was pretty close to changing it like, okay, I'll give up cussing. Yeah, they just get getting in to change a shout out
01:06:03 like my god
01:06:05 My shout out no free shout out is gonna go to
01:06:08 Building snowmen. I had a great time building the snowman with Rue
01:06:13 I will give her a little bit of credit even though I think we all know she wasn't very helpful
01:06:17 She did put a call. She did put the sticks in his arms
01:06:20 I had to kind of guide it so she didn't like because again, the snow is powdery
01:06:23 We couldn't crush rich pistachio just yet. But my shout out no free shout out building snowmen
01:06:28 I had a great time hands and knees piling in snow and just like immersing myself in the snow
01:06:34 Mmm, I like that. That's a good one. My shout out no free shout out is
01:06:39 going to be
01:06:42 Having the proper amount of apparel on before you go outside
01:06:47 Being able to get bundled up have the gloves on that fit have the shoes on that your toes aren't gonna hurt
01:06:53 The right pants that are good that are not gonna get wet and soggy and drip into your skin the jacket
01:06:59 When you walk outside you kind of just fall in the snow because it's the first snow day of the year
01:07:03 And you kind of make a snow angel you roll around in it with the kids
01:07:06 You're kind of wrestling and you're like not cold at all
01:07:09 That is such a small thing that sometimes we just go out there and just do shit
01:07:14 I want to get then you realize I have traveled 50 yards away from my house and I'm
01:07:18 Freezing anything about getting back like my god. I'm in hell for the next
01:07:21 soaked. Yes
01:07:24 having taking the time
01:07:26 To be properly put together before you go outside is my shout out no free shout out. Well said man. Thank you. Well said
01:07:33 Thanks, brother. It's nice to bring that back. Yeah. Oh good
01:07:37 Felt nice. I think what was hell is
01:07:40 The cold tub freezing
01:07:43 Yeah, did you not break it up? Oh, I broke it up and I was in
01:07:50 You know, obviously not hell, but I was in hell mentally. Yeah, did you see mine yesterday my little red?
01:07:56 thermometer a little thermometer needle
01:07:59 Miserable I
01:08:05 was I
01:08:06 Mean, I thought I had frostbite for a second when I came in. I had I was red all over my body like
01:08:11 Splot like spotty red. Mm-hmm
01:08:13 my feet didn't feel good because I you're like walking in the snow after and it's just
01:08:17 They numb up and it's like oh shit. It might be over. I might be like the old boy off. Mr. Deeds. Yeah black foot
01:08:22 Yeah, black
01:08:24 Cuz I saw
01:08:25 Charos post about you kind of just walking around in the back patty and I thought that's not
01:08:29 That's not it. That's nice
01:08:32 There's a level of getting in a cold tub though. That makes you feel like a fucking alpha male when there's snow outside
01:08:38 I didn't today
01:08:40 What are you sitting there and you're just looking around and you're like, I'm consciously making myself colder when it's 12 degrees outside

01:10:28 Possibly that being the last time he wore the two-tone blue
01:10:33 Talk about what his future looks like with some good old reminiscing living in the old glory days. You were getting flowers
01:10:39 Yeah, did I get flowers? Yeah, he was talking about the foundational pieces of the Titans and he did my he's a you
01:10:46 More I saw him he on Instagram
01:10:52 He said something about like we will likes Wendy's burgers and I wish we would have got back into that good old argument
01:10:57 I kind of that was a fun time
01:10:59 That was a fun moment when we went in the next day and everyone's fucking arguing about five guys Wendy's
01:11:02 You know
01:11:04 Five guys does Trump Wendy's no question. Yeah, like it's that's not even close. Yeah
01:11:09 But so we don't get off the rails and yeah, we don't need to do that
01:11:13 But enjoy this Derek Henry pod
01:11:20 Don't forget to subscribe

01:11:30 Either give us twisted questions or give us your resume because we might be looking for a new producer
01:11:37 Well, I appreciate you guys tuning in. Enjoy the Derek Henry episode. Yeah one two testing three four testing
01:11:43 It's dropping the ball with the king on the bus, man
01:11:47 We were in Athens in September and that kid that Dylan Ray look at the number one quarterback that end up going to Nebraska
01:11:55 Yeah, they were like bragging about like that's the number one kid in the class. He's coming here
01:11:58 He was from Arizona and moved to Georgia
01:12:00 He had like a Georgia headband on was like seemed like he was like the spokesman for that class
01:12:06 And they did to go to the Huskies Oscars Oscars. Do anybody know why?
01:12:11 His dad played in Nebraska and his uncle is the old line coach in Nebraska so a lot of
01:12:17 But you weren't yeah, I mean you wouldn't have been room for Michigan, right
01:12:23 from Michigan last night in the Natty
01:12:26 No
01:12:28 Bro bro, we shot ourselves in the foot way too much and early on in that game
01:12:36 The way they were getting back to the quarterback and we can protect we can't shoot us up
01:12:41 but we just did that way too many times we had opportunities and
01:12:44 We didn't take advantage of them and I feel like it was a lot of back and forth and in the end they executed we did
01:12:51 Then the fucking low snaps
01:12:54 Right is like god damn
01:12:56 Objectively don't get me started
01:12:59 Objectively if you look at that game
01:13:02 Michigan had just as many mess-ups as Alabama
01:13:05 I did that's why I said and executed at the end they definitely in it definitely did I said that I mean they had we
01:13:10 Had just as many chances as they did and they came down to execute in overtime and they did we didn't I mean
01:13:17 tripping over the
01:13:19 over the alignment
01:13:22 Just me all thing about this they were going crazy but the defensive line was going nuts
01:13:27 So when so last night when the game was on you were rooting for the Huskies
01:13:32 Yeah, I want nothing
01:13:35 But at the end of the day, I'm a pair of respects or respects dude Michigan a hell of a team
01:13:41 Through all the odds they went through this season. They was balling
01:13:44 I mean they was balling from top to bottom. I can't hate I'm rooting for the Huskies
01:13:48 but Michigan the best team in the country as a
01:13:52 SEC guy that knows what it's like to kind of
01:13:56 Push the boundaries of what the rules are
01:14:01 Is used to kind of like being a conference that cheats you guys kind of tip the cap to Michigan all that stuff
01:14:07 Well, I mean, I don't really know much about
01:14:11 The the whole thing rather than what was on
01:14:15 Social media and on TV about them cheating which I didn't really believe
01:14:19 No about them cheating. I think they just
01:14:22 They were good and people were mad and realize how good they were
01:14:26 And we're trying to stop, you know what eventually happened and winning this year
01:14:30 So I don't really get into all that cheating stuff and and and all that do that since Central Michigan
01:14:36 Acting like a coat. I mean, I don't know crazy
01:14:41 Details and you know what to come out from it, but I don't believe there was cheating. They were just better than everybody else
01:14:47 We'll see when it all comes out
01:14:50 I think where there's smoke there's fire. I mean
01:14:57 At the end of the day, you know when you look at it early on, you know
01:15:03 To me with them winning it kind of felt like a sense of they wanted to stop what they thought eventually was gonna happen
01:15:09 Is this when I'm winning a national championship and I don't know. I mean, I don't think they were cheating
01:15:14 But I think Jim Harbaugh is a great coach and you know, I feel like this year showed it
01:15:21 You got to give credit where credit's due but you never knows shit comes out later on another
01:15:27 Another sleeper that we haven't brought up but Bama Saban hired the linebacker coach from Michigan
01:15:34 at the beginning
01:15:38 Immediately
01:15:40 Actually from where I'm from he's from Jacksonville. He was actually a Bama when I was there really
01:15:44 Yeah, George. Hello. Yeah, he was he was at Bama went out when I came to Bama and he left
01:15:50 I was so funny when I saw that
01:15:52 Jordan got big - yes. Whoa, but that was that was funny. That was a funny move
01:15:58 So what you're having before though?
01:16:00 So what you're telling me is
01:16:01 The SEC noticed that Michigan was starting to get good at football and Alabama sent one of their coaches
01:16:06 They and I were for a couple of years only to bring him back and try to foil Michigan in the Rose Bowl
01:16:10 I'm gonna say all that
01:16:12 Linebacker coach got fired because of like the leading files on the computer. Oh, that's remember. That's right
01:16:17 Alabama's like hey come over here
01:16:20 Okay, you got to get them advantage. Yeah, however you can get it how you can
01:16:24 That is what when they said a he'll be working immediately. He will start work immediately. I thought all hell
01:16:30 I was like, oh, yeah, fuck. It's about to go down. That's what I'm saying
01:16:33 I don't know all the details about all the scandals and what's really going on
01:16:37 I ain't really know that to y'all know said that but I thought that was funny
01:16:41 But George's that been before I think he just want to give him a little edge which I know it could have worked
01:16:48 What it didn't I?
01:16:50 Know you're being so gracious and humble about it because I want to kind of get fiery but no you can
01:16:54 Pose you made about the little all the little
01:17:01 Whatever was you posted with Jim Harbaugh dancing. I mean you talk your shit you post
01:17:08 Do I like it yeah, I like that shit. I
01:17:13 Just were walking in with you Rashawn Evans and
01:17:16 in the
01:17:19 Glad you beat Alabama. No, did you beat Alabama? No, I'm just glad it happened when he was
01:17:25 Now he's done playing. I'm glad cuz it was in the building. We were still playing
01:17:29 I don't know about good deal with Taylor then he would have music playing the locker room the the whole fight song. Hell no
01:17:35 Yes, dude. Oh, I don't have one. It did that one regret playing this year. It's just not being able to just went to the locker room
01:17:41 After that, I know no one Derek was in there. I was at the facility a couple weeks ago
01:17:46 That was I felt weird being there. Well, I got a question though
01:17:49 Yeah
01:17:50 I was shocked that
01:17:51 You wouldn't even go to the game on the sideline is because you were waiting on me for the next day to do this
01:17:56 Podcast no, I literally a lot of you this
01:17:58 If I was so good away, what's it to you? I'm so glad go to Houston and come back. I mean, I appreciate it
01:18:04 I'm so glad you brought that up because literally I made sure to be down on the sidelines
01:18:11 45 minutes before you guys like really even came out and I was hanging out there
01:18:15 You said hi to your your girl and your daughter and sprinted you literally ran right past me
01:18:21 I was gonna ask if you got to see him
01:18:24 Because to his point he wanted to be at the last game depending if it could have been a Michigan game. Oh
01:18:30 I thought you're about Sunday. No, I was talking about the Michigan Enterprise. You weren't there the National Championship. Yeah, you know, but we just
01:18:37 What game were you on the sidelines for Ohio State was Ohio State
01:18:44 State the last year I did the semifinal game. Okay on the sideline. But yeah, I was I'm glad I ended up in it
01:18:50 Actually bringing that up because I literally put the 2k chain on you did
01:18:54 He was locked in just like
01:18:58 Grab me or like this came up, right?
01:19:02 Cuz you're like visual cuz I'm like at that point
01:19:04 I'm trying to tell her to my family and get to stretching because it's too many people I'll be trying to and everyone's going
01:19:10 When I got there a bunch of people saying hey to me as well and I was legit while I'm like
01:19:17 As I'm like people are saying what's up to me?
01:19:20 I'm really trying to look strictly for you and it's so
01:19:23 wild because I obviously was in that position to have like
01:19:26 seeing dudes before games and how like zoned in everybody is and
01:19:29 Legit like you see Dylan and all the boys and they're like got their fucking
01:19:33 Ready to go tough guy routine on and knowing you playing with you for so long you
01:19:38 You were only focused on the game. Yeah, I bet it was a struggle to even go say what's up to your family
01:19:43 Well, you go up like hey good to see you. All right quick picture
01:19:45 Let me I got to get out of here cuz you about to go do what you did
01:19:48 Yeah, cuz I saw your arm the post you made before the game
01:19:51 So I was like you're probably come come in the locker room and say what up to everybody
01:19:55 but you didn't so I just I didn't point I was I didn't even press to come in the locker room because a
01:20:00 Couple weeks ago. Like I said before when I came to the facility I brought a very well that cowboy hat
01:20:05 I remember that. Yeah, and I was like, hey, like how am I supposed to get in here?
01:20:09 How do you guys want me to go in like just go in and everyone was really cool a sob rapes
01:20:12 I think I go say what's up to the boys end up seeing you at that walkthrough but the whole time I was there
01:20:16 I was like I feel like I
01:20:18 Was like kind of overstaying my welcome. Yeah
01:20:21 Yeah, I I'm so happy that I'm allowed to be in here, but I also didn't want to like oh, hey Taylor
01:20:27 Come on, listen, it's over. Like you gotta get out of here
01:20:30 I don't want to like press myself a little bit
01:20:31 So when it was like going to locker room and stuff
01:20:33 I was like I would have loved to go see what's up the boys, but really like though I was there
01:20:38 For the first quarter. I literally just came there to see you because I was like my boys last game possibly I seen your
01:20:44 The chug is your chug. Yeah
01:20:47 I just saw the video
01:20:50 When y'all saw braids when he came out, yeah
01:20:54 I think he was ready to hug Taylor, but Taylor just started wrestling him right away
01:21:03 I kind of stood there first thing. I was like you guys gonna like hug or anything
01:21:06 Yeah, he's holding my hand
01:21:08 Cuz I just seen him so sad in the press conferences you you know how it feels it fucking sucks
01:21:18 I saw that too
01:21:19 I saw that I was like man
01:21:20 I want to kind of like wrap like rile him up a little bit and he did not it did not go well
01:21:24 Yeah, I would like give him a hug. He's like holding my wrist. I'm kind of like
01:21:28 Give me a hug as I tried to I tried to
01:21:33 All by the way, I mean him getting is that surprising to you brave getting fired?
01:21:37 Yeah, I'm definitely surprised. Um
01:21:40 you know cuz
01:21:43 The the body of work that you know
01:21:45 Braves has had since he's been there. Um, yeah these last two
01:21:51 Years have been tough, but I feel like praise is a great coach. He has a championship
01:21:58 Mentality, he's a leader of men and he knows to get the best out of his players. Um, I know it's a
01:22:05 Different in the front office with the personnel that they have and you know, um, maybe they have a different vision
01:22:12 I'm not sure. I don't know all the details
01:22:14 But um, you know, I thought he'll still be the coach
01:22:18 I thought they'll probably just talk it out and you know, make some adjustments as as
01:22:24 time went forward and you know for the future of the organization, but um
01:22:28 It was shocking to me. Um, I'm sure
01:22:31 Braves I have plenty opportunities or another opportunity somewhere down the road. No, you know, I talked to him yesterday
01:22:38 I told him I'm always indebted to him
01:22:39 I got a lot got a lot of love for him and you know what it's happening
01:22:43 You know, I just wish him the best and hopefully I see him coaching again somewhere else and doing good
01:22:47 Yeah, I thought that was I mean we if everybody listen right now like this is Tuesday
01:22:52 We January night news just came out like 20 minutes
01:22:55 Right now and the news came out 15 minutes on Richeyes and I like walk over to you wide-eyed like yo
01:23:01 They bravo. They got him. Yeah, we all shot. Yeah. Yeah
01:23:06 I was shot
01:23:06 I've the only thing I know is just on the outside like read Twitter reading articles and things like that
01:23:11 like it seemed like there was like a
01:23:13 I'll just say power struggle for lack of a better term right now
01:23:16 But like some disagreement with like whether it's him in the front office or roll clarity on who's doing what?
01:23:22 Like he doesn't need to be in full control
01:23:24 But would like somebody who he like who would be competent enough I guess to do that job
01:23:28 I don't know all those struggles and inside the inside that building
01:23:31 Then it seemed like he was up. He was up there for possibly being traded
01:23:36 I was also reading like he wouldn't he would rather be fired so that way, you know
01:23:41 He would accept the buyout and then immediately go get another job because he will yeah, he's a great head coach
01:23:46 So it I was I was kind of thinking along the lines as you were like I felt like they would get it figured out
01:23:52 Yeah, I got get that disagreement happens at the top
01:23:54 But Braves like a guy who you just what you just said like he's oh, he's like a leader and sometimes he's tough
01:24:01 But he that dude is a leader of men a leader of those guys and he's got that championship pedigree like he gets it
01:24:07 He's not it's not like he'll ever just be stuck in certain ways
01:24:10 Like we saw it seen him adapt and grow for through our time with the Titans. I'm sure you would
01:24:18 Exclusion like, you know, yeah, but like any other coach me every coach has their ways and has their ways of doing things
01:24:25 But you know with I mean tell you can piggyback with Braves, you know, yeah, he's a tough coach
01:24:29 You know, yeah, he comes from that
01:24:32 Patriot mindset and you know, sometimes he does things that you know, you don't like us you don't agree with but in the day
01:24:40 You know, he means well, you know, he's just trying to do whatever he thinks right to help the team be the best that they can
01:24:47 But yes, he's somebody who has like if it's come from somebody who doesn't and not that you ever hold coaches against not playing
01:24:53 But brave is somebody who played 14 years
01:24:55 So even though it sucks
01:24:56 There's you know that there's not a whole lot that I can kind of go back with right now because he's been there done that
01:25:02 He's just trying to help us be better
01:25:04 I just think it's a I don't know why
01:25:09 Because it was it was very obvious early in the season that like just from an overall talent standpoint
01:25:15 Like there was there was a lot of transition going on a lot of guys that used to be there aren't there like you guys
01:25:19 Didn't have the ability to be true like contenders as you as the Titans have been in like three years past
01:25:25 Yeah, and so for me, it's like it's not
01:25:28 Braves job to bring in new players during the season
01:25:32 It's the GM's job like Rabel is the dude that has proven he can have success
01:25:35 With a lesser talented team like when you got hurt and we have have running backs by committee and we had the most
01:25:41 injuries in NFL history and we still end up getting the one seed in 2021 like that's a dude that I like I
01:25:48 But I think picking back off that um Sam when when I got hurt
01:25:52 I still think we were pretty solid, you know, and and with you know this year
01:25:58 You know, well, I would say is like in years past
01:26:03 When when shit hit the fan even when you were there you were there
01:26:07 You can look to your left or your right and you know when when the pressure comes
01:26:12 You know the person to your left or right is gonna respond
01:26:15 And if you need to lean on them and you can lean on them by being in those situations with them before
01:26:20 And in this year, like you said when you came to the facility it is that you know
01:26:26 It kind of felt like out of place and whenever I came on back for OTAs
01:26:30 Earlier last year
01:26:34 No, I was talking to KB. We both felt the same way. It was like it felt different
01:26:38 You know, you know when we used to come back
01:26:40 It's kind of like that home feeling like we was like the old lines all together
01:26:43 Everybody knew everybody and everybody was like it was all family
01:26:46 but it was just different this year because you had a lot of a lot of young guys and you know this year was like
01:26:52 The first time I was like, yes, it's it feel like they're taking a shift
01:26:56 Yeah, I don't know when it's gonna happen, but you can just feel it at some point
01:27:01 They're gonna shift you get those guys like Ben and guys like will that like do a great job of like
01:27:05 incorporating other position groups with other position groups and like keeping a glue together when you start to lose and then you have
01:27:11 Pieces that have been there for so long like those guys go away. It's like you there's a there's a level of instability
01:27:16 That's gonna come with that and it's and it's so crazy because like in the moment in time
01:27:21 You know, you just playing having fun and you're out there balling, but you don't realize
01:27:29 How short that that window is in that moment like how good we we had a team bro. We were close
01:27:37 Like we had some dogs
01:27:39 Yes, we had some dogs and it sucks that we didn't get it done
01:27:43 When I look back on it and like this year I did a plane to I was like man
01:27:48 We had a team we were solid row like three years. We enjoy. Yeah, like we enjoy each other's company
01:27:54 Like in the locker room where everybody would laugh
01:27:56 Everybody was cool and it was trying to work we work, you know
01:28:00 I'm saying and like and we all just like we all hung out we all can joke on one another nobody had no egos
01:28:06 Everybody can hold each other each other accountable
01:28:08 Everybody, you know, just like it was that that brotherhood and in a moment, you know
01:28:14 You don't realize like how quickly that can go by
01:28:18 Until it's gone, but like we had a squad bro. It's so it is so incredible
01:28:23 That nine on seven run then the next year we went like 11 and five. Yeah
01:28:28 Beat by the fucking Ravens. I know remember we were saying on the sideline because we've recapped it before but you're not even believing that
01:28:34 It's happening to like hang on now like we might lose this game. I know bro
01:28:39 I know then the next year is what 12 or 11 and five again or 12. Well, you guys were the ones in four
01:28:44 Yeah, one one see bro. It is so rare to find a team the way the Titans were built the last
01:28:51 Six years will say yeah, like I would say like your third year until
01:28:56 Before these last two years like it's felt like but I just felt like every time like like like 18
01:29:03 We had to win and get in. Yeah, so 17 we got in which it was changes on 18
01:29:09 We didn't get in and then 19
01:29:11 We finally got in and we finally got a taste of the playoffs and we did what we did
01:29:15 I just felt like
01:29:17 Every time we had success we'll let this person go and then and then the next year will let that person go
01:29:22 I'm just like imagine we would have kept that squad together. That's a little bit longer
01:29:26 What could you feel me? What could have been?
01:29:28 Oh, if you would have kept AJ if you would have kept Johnny Smith after 19 and then Jack left
01:29:33 I'm just Jack was people don't realize
01:29:36 And it's like it was understandable at the time that they didn't pick up his fifth year option because he had injuries and it was
01:29:43 Kind of going back and forth. So like it looked like from a business standpoint. You understood it
01:29:47 Yeah, but bro, people do not realize how
01:29:50 Consistently good Jack was in and out. He was gonna give you the same guy every single week that line
01:29:56 See our 2016 and 2019 line were like the two best lines in the NFL
01:30:03 It was fucking awesome
01:30:05 and like you said
01:30:06 But like it's so it's so rare to find a team that truly like everybody for the most part got along
01:30:13 Like there was a couple guys that you know
01:30:14 Would butt heads like me and Jeff would but heads or me and Darrell Casey about heads when he was there
01:30:19 But like we were a level of respect, but yeah, I mean that's that's what you that's what it's supposed to be in the locker room
01:30:25 And you know, we're brotherhood stuff stuff like that gonna happen. But at the end of the day
01:30:29 We all knew when it was time to go do our job that you were gonna do your job derail Jeff
01:30:35 We were just solid from top to bottom
01:30:38 There's always such a high level of accountability to especially when you get tackled in the back
01:30:41 Sure, and just like and it's like I told the media I was like
01:30:45 between me and the old line, um
01:30:47 back when we
01:30:49 were rolling like we knew we didn't have a good game I
01:30:55 Felt it and all five of them felt it and we knew like oh, yeah, we got to get this, right
01:31:00 You know, really like we would joke, you know, and and you know laugh in there
01:31:05 but we knew we got to get it right and
01:31:09 Everybody was ready to step up and you know, it was just that camaraderie that we had that you know
01:31:14 that was special that you know, I never
01:31:17 take for granted because
01:31:19 It's so interesting because when you're in it though, you don't realize
01:31:24 You know, that's all say don't realize I definitely did a lot of it. I was like man
01:31:28 Man, man, man, but it's so a the way you were able like this last game
01:31:33 We'll get into that because I thought there's more to unpack with hardball and a pass
01:31:36 but the way you were able to
01:31:39 essentially give yourself if it is the end for Derek and Tennessee like
01:31:42 The way you handled it with the speech in the stadium the the yeah the interview at the end
01:31:48 because that's a Derek that not not a lot of people get to see like you
01:31:51 you go up to the podium because you are a star and you go and talk to people and you give the answers in a
01:31:57 Political standpoint because you're not focused on talking to media
01:32:00 You're so gonna ball and but you took that five minutes to shout out the chef shout out the
01:32:05 Equipment guys shout out all the people that no one gets credit but literally without them
01:32:08 We're not be able to get shit done, especially Jeff for you. Like there's just so many you did
01:32:13 I think you did an incredible job to piggy off that I actually forgot some people like the trainers like Todd
01:32:18 Todd the head trainer. I appreciate him and all he's done for me and
01:32:23 Doing whatever he can to make sure I felt good and keeping me healthy

01:33:57 To the test optimum optimum nutrition good shit JP back to the episode
01:34:02 Yeah, the you bring up the account accountability point where you talked about the offensive line and you we all when we had a bad
01:34:08 Game, there's multiple times where we would be on a plane ride back from a game that we lost that
01:34:13 We didn't have the yards
01:34:14 We want we'd have the protection we wanted it would be like you me and the whole line
01:34:18 And we would literally be huddled around one iPad and just dissecting that to our flight
01:34:23 Whatever it was dissecting every single play where things could have been better and not better like an hour after the game and then
01:34:28 One thing you said about accountability
01:34:31 if I had a run and I felt like
01:34:34 You know something difficult to happen. What what what would I come to you and ask? What would I say?
01:34:40 Yeah, well, it was not there was it was always a run. That was not good
01:34:43 And it was obviously my fault you bite a what happened there
01:34:46 You know what the fuck happened, okay
01:34:50 Y'all come to me and be like hey you gotta uh, you pressed a little more. I'm come off. It's that but you know
01:34:56 It was just we just had that same it shows like how important like all that
01:35:00 Veteran leadership is to like, you know as different as it probably felt. I'm sure this year
01:35:06 It's like with all the new faces and they just kind of don't know, you know
01:35:10 They don't know how to sink or swim especially around a tough staff like Braves can be at times
01:35:15 It's like when you have the vets it could be like water off your back because you kind of know what time it is whether
01:35:19 Or not somebody's being grouchy or whatever and you guys lean on each other on like because anytime
01:35:23 Bad game happen the old line would always talk about like, you know
01:35:28 Taylor would literally always say we got to get there gets 2000 yard season
01:35:30 We got it's always we got to get Derek this and you would hold them
01:35:33 You want to like make them proud by running behind them and because they would just move the line of scrimmage
01:35:39 But you just always felt that conversation with young guys, you know, it's a lot more of like that
01:35:43 They're just trying to get like man. Hopefully I can stick around this year. Hopefully I can be here next year
01:35:47 there's a lot more of that individual style because of the
01:35:50 Versus the continuity that you guys said because you guys got to play together for so long
01:35:54 And then when new somebody new would come in they would kind of just fall in line because at least three or four the old lineman
01:35:59 Would still kind of be there. It's speaking to old line and having that. Um
01:36:01 Having that chemistry. Um, you think right now
01:36:05 Who took to y'all to who is the best online in the league?
01:36:10 Best online least probably
01:36:13 49ers the Eagles are good. Yeah, and how long you go?
01:36:18 So long you think that Eagles group in together Jason and Lane have been together for 10 years long time exactly
01:36:23 You've got anchors in there exactly. So that's what I'm saying. No, you need that. That's like that's like a foundation
01:36:30 You know when guys come in there, they know, you know
01:36:33 those two they gotta you know, live up to and
01:36:36 You know, they know they don't come to work and do their job and so standing in that room
01:36:41 it was a massive disservice me and Ben both getting hurt and
01:36:46 Getting cut the last year like you like you would hope that one of us
01:36:51 Stayed for one more year like a Ben was for one more year because then when you have the new guys come in
01:36:57 They have that leader to kind of all right. This is how we're gonna hold the room
01:37:01 This is how things are gonna be handled in the room type of stuff because you brought it you brought it up a bunch like with
01:37:05 Brable
01:37:06 Very hard coaching any coaching staff
01:37:09 You know just the brave stuff like any staff you're on when you're young you're kind of like sink or swim
01:37:13 Yeah
01:37:13 and when you have to when you have two different type of veteran groups the veteran groups that get in the small corners the losers that
01:37:19 Bitch and complain and you have the veteran groups that understand like yes
01:37:22 Okay, Ravel is being hard or whatever coaching staffs being hard us
01:37:24 But there's a level of success that we know could happen
01:37:26 And so it's like kind of like a therapy session between all the guys you're just embracing this up together
01:37:31 you know how to embrace it versus like kind of do your own thing and
01:37:34 Mmm, not necessarily have a pulse on everybody Taylor
01:37:38 Roger
01:37:40 Ben
01:37:42 Nate
01:37:45 Jack
01:37:47 Dennis Kelly
01:37:48 quiz
01:37:50 Is
01:37:52 David Lee and tossed up then in 2020 and did a great job as well. So and
01:37:57 Brew brew to brew stuff then and
01:38:00 Amen and grind it. I told Brutus this shows. I mean you grind it, you know for everything you work your tail off
01:38:06 So you get where you are?
01:38:08 Yeah, man, we had a you know the solid group
01:38:11 It's weird when all the vets leave and you basically are the old
01:38:16 Exactly. Mm-hmm. Definitely a different
01:38:18 Especially after KB got traded I bet then you're the lone soldier because you and KB were the same class
01:38:24 Whatever Jeff class that was different
01:38:26 It had to be what was that like for you with KB because when you were talking about OTAs?
01:38:30 I how didn't feel like a home. Yeah, KB was on the show
01:38:33 And we didn't talk about on the pod
01:38:35 But he was definitely he was alluding to the same similar feelings
01:38:38 After one of the three of us were kind of sorry
01:38:40 Delaney was there too because we had a meeting with Delaney the slips and picks show
01:38:43 So there was a there was a known understanding that the Titans weren't gonna be the Titans of old this year
01:38:49 Yeah, it was it was known everywhere. That's why it's so crazy that they're gonna fire
01:38:53 Brapes there had to be some true Game of Thrones
01:38:56 Type stuff going on for Brapes to get out there or maybe Rape's wanted out. I really I really don't know what it is. Oh
01:39:03 No way
01:39:06 Yeah, just say you're on the pod and then that way if he doesn't wanna
01:39:12 Hey KB. I'm on the bus with the boys. I'm gonna call you back when we get done
01:39:15 All right, but
01:39:19 I was hoping you talk a little bit travels. Yeah, sure quick
01:39:25 But no, yeah, it was I'm a lie
01:39:27 I kind of I was hurt a little bit like you said cuz I you know, I came in with KB and um, you know, we were
01:39:33 Probably like the the vet vets in the group who've been you know, they're the longest between all the own
01:39:41 Everybody that was there and when they traded him, you know, I was just like hey, I mean a trade KB
01:39:47 You know, I might be out of here too
01:39:49 Cuz I mean like when you think of a Titan I feel like KB represents all that
01:39:54 and more
01:39:55 So, you know, that's what I knew
01:39:57 You know
01:39:58 It was getting real and what I was wondering what I felt when I first came back was it was it was definitely happening
01:40:04 Um, you know, so, you know, it's a business and at the end of the day the Tennessee Titans gonna look out
01:40:10 Well, what's best for the Tennessee Titans and you know?
01:40:13 You know everything
01:40:17 Got an expiration date. It's just some are more sooner than another so yeah, man
01:40:22 It was it's definitely a different year. Well, I thought KB would got traded and not me
01:40:28 No, but um, you know everything happened for a reason
01:40:31 Did you think you were going to because you were obviously in a lot of speculation?
01:40:35 I'll say I don't know how many conversations were taking place. I feel like it was close
01:40:40 It was close. Yeah, no something it was close. It was close boys. It was it was close to who?
01:40:46 It was in the playoffs, yeah, yeah
01:40:51 I know
01:40:53 - for sure. It was I mean, I don't know the other one
01:40:57 I don't know if that would have happened. But one of them I feel like it was it was pretty close
01:41:03 What makes you a lot a lot a lot a lot went down with between you know that little?
01:41:09 Saga with the trade on that stuff
01:41:11 Were you wanting to were you were you wanting to go to this team or were you fully against going against going to this team?
01:41:19 No, I mean at that time me I didn't know what was going on KB. I got traded
01:41:23 So I'm trying to wrap my head around that I'm just like dang and then you know after that happened
01:41:29 I'm just like well, maybe they finna get all of us out of here. So and I'm town
01:41:33 I'm just trying to figure out you know
01:41:35 What's going on on my side with my team and talking to my agent everything, you know, see him, you know
01:41:42 What he can find out because all this stuff is out on the internet about me being shot and me being traded
01:41:48 So I'm like, oh, you know, I had to let my girl know. I mean, I didn't know what was going on
01:41:54 but um, yeah, I felt like it was
01:41:57 It almost went down. I think so
01:42:01 When you know - like when they trade KB
01:42:03 It's like if you're trying to win at this moment versus like rebuild move on
01:42:08 You're not trading somebody like KB like that's a one of the most vocal. Yeah, not that you're not a vocal guy
01:42:13 But it's like when you speak you listen because I Derrick stepping up here in the huddle and saying something right now
01:42:19 Yeah, KB is a guy you don't have to like he just he just takes command and you circle up before you get to be yourself
01:42:25 Even more because you know, you got those guys like him like the bends of the world who's just gonna speak up
01:42:29 So then when you're getting rid of moving on I'm sure from your shoes you're like
01:42:33 Maybe they are just fully just cleaning house
01:42:36 When you're talking about this possible trade situation what is
01:42:41 Kind of holding you back from speaking more about it right now because I don't really I don't really know
01:42:48 How close it was. I just know I felt like it
01:42:52 It was close. I felt like it was it was it was pretty close
01:42:57 And were you getting that you mean that feeling from the agents? Um
01:43:00 Yeah, yeah, yeah kind of because I felt like
01:43:06 This team really
01:43:11 Really I guess really wanted me to
01:43:18 You know come over and be a part of what they had going on
01:43:23 but at the same time, you know, I don't really know, you know the communications between both sides, but
01:43:29 My acknowledgement I felt like it was it was pretty close. Hey, there's how old is in my head?
01:43:35 How insane how big of a need was the running back position for this team at the time? Um,
01:43:40 I
01:43:43 Don't think it was
01:43:45 Needed that much
01:43:48 but I think
01:43:50 Could I have had a?
01:43:53 pretty good bit for damn sure for damn sure and
01:43:56 we think they were already I thought they were already already solid but
01:44:02 It would have been it would have been I feel like it would have been held up a you would have gone from contenders to
01:44:09 Oh shit. It was it would have blew up
01:44:11 Who do you think it is I got two teams in my head and they're both in the AFC
01:44:17 Can you say if it's yes or no in the conference
01:44:22 Uh
01:44:24 Yes, yes, yes both AFC yes, yes that takes away one of mine actually I think the way he says it would have exploded I
01:44:31 That leads me to believe more of the Ravens
01:44:35 Because I would also think at that time too
01:44:37 Like when you're in a duo and I could see like Callahan and who's the head coach for the Browns?
01:44:42 Which I'll go
01:44:44 Going down like, you know, you you would almost like try and figure something out because Derek could plug and play there
01:44:49 Yeah, the Browns and the Browns is a run-heavy team. No team that would take Derek and be like, okay
01:44:53 We see what the times have done with him. Let's do the same thing. I think who is it a
01:44:55 Jerome Brown Jerome, who's the running back Jerome for it. You're like Jerome for it. Yeah
01:45:02 Yeah, Jerome Ford and like Kareem like throughout the year like they would be considered solid but with a hands same with the Ravens
01:45:08 I don't necessarily I I don't I can't I don't know who the starter is right now, but it seems like they're solid
01:45:13 but with the mix of enhancement and
01:45:17 It would have exploded
01:45:19 At least me to believe yeah, because there's always been speculation of Lamar and Derek in the in every offseason
01:45:25 Right be not Titans trying to get Lamar when Lamar's deal was up
01:45:28 Mm-hmm, I'm mostly looking at you so that way he can just say he can you want there?
01:45:31 Right now cuz you want to press him too hard about it. I get it massage
01:45:35 well
01:45:35 Ravens running back was Gus Averiss Gus bus who is pretty solid top five and touchdowns and
01:45:40 Justin's here who was like the kind of like the scat bag
01:45:44 For them who's pretty solid as well didn't had a rookie that was going off a little while and he end up
01:45:48 Hurting his knee, but no, they were pretty solid and solid
01:45:52 Yeah, and handsome potential Roman on Jerome Ford every step man, he was ball. Yeah. Yeah and Kareem, you know
01:46:00 He's been solid for a while. So yeah, but it was I felt like it was it was pretty it was it was close
01:46:05 It was it was pretty close Baltimore and some stuff happened in between that that you know
01:46:11 Kind of yeah, but it was I thought it was close
01:46:13 You know, I got one ass so bad about what happened in between. I know I know I can't I want to put too much
01:46:20 Just say it got interesting for sure. Yeah, cuz he is still technically right now under contract with the Titans
01:46:30 Right until March 14th. Yes. Yes - March
01:46:33 Is this your last year of the deal? Yeah, I'm a virgin
01:46:38 Has it been for my gosh, man? That's crazy. Yeah, it really is. I mean with the variable thing happening
01:46:44 Cuz I listen we can go down this lane now, but I think with variable leaving it's truly like
01:46:51 that space of like 16 the Titans the 20
01:46:56 21 Titans is gone. Yes
01:47:00 It's just a piece of fun history that Titan fans can look back on to be like hey
01:47:05 That was a really cool time the team that probably should have done it but didn't do it
01:47:08 We should have done it 19 and 21 we should have done it we should have done it I
01:47:14 Really thought - in 19 bro that we were actually gonna do it that I found out for somebody that 19 that
01:47:21 Like we went up. What did we go 10? Oh, what we're the first quarter against Kansas City
01:47:28 Um, I like I heard that the NFL was pulling out the stage and the the shirts and hats for us already
01:47:35 Yeah, they were pulling they were pulling out the stage for us, but we should have ran away with that. I know
01:47:40 Y'all really should have man. I remember watching that game and y'all were
01:47:45 The homes don't scramble before halftime. Yes, bro
01:47:49 not the shit on the D
01:47:51 But the the the effort style of trying to get him to the ground like I know that they were tired because they were driving
01:47:56 On him. It's two minutes. I know hold them to three. I know you hold them three. We win that game pop pass
01:48:03 yellow pop pass then the score Dennis did the
01:48:06 Man it's over. I really
01:48:10 Boom, I did Lord and said, can I just experience that one more time?
01:48:14 That shit was like magical. It was like in a moment
01:48:19 I was so young and not realizing like what was really going on. I remember after we lost that game
01:48:23 Dion was like man. I'm like, why are you so down? You like bro?
01:48:27 He's like you understand like it's hard getting back here. I like man. We're gonna be good
01:48:33 he's like no, bro, it's hard getting back here and
01:48:35 It is you know, you just don't you don't realize how small a window you got and how much you got capitalized on it, but man
01:48:43 now like
01:48:45 Looking back. I'm like man that that was like, oh, no, it was like a movie like, you know, yeah, it's like a movie from like
01:48:52 Playing the Texans and you know
01:48:55 Even before that man and then going to New England beat New England and it was my birthday going in there beating New England and Tom
01:49:02 Brady's sending them home
01:49:04 Going to Baltimore
01:49:06 If you that energy and how that stadium was before that game, I was like, oh man, I ain't this
01:49:14 Yeah, this it right this playoff football in the whole like going in there
01:49:18 They were no one see and then going to
01:49:21 Be able to play in the LSU championship. I mean I was it was all the way games, but it just it felt like
01:49:30 Because you guys started all right two and four and then it was the Kansas City Chiefs and then a bye week
01:49:35 So it's almost like well season is pretty much over five
01:49:38 It would be all be KFC and then just go on the run, but it's so crazy because early that year we had BKC at home
01:49:44 Right, right
01:49:47 Do you know that when we play Kansas City at home they were up 10-0 in the first quarter? Yeah
01:49:52 That's crazy
01:49:55 But the thing that even goes back to before Houston because we were I think the last five games of the year we need
01:49:59 to win for the last five to make it and it turns into one of those things where you're like
01:50:03 Hey
01:50:05 For the best and you win - and you're like, oh shit, we could really owe this team Wallace
01:50:08 And then there's like one more it's like we just got to beat Houston and the identity of running the ball was that fool
01:50:13 Yeah, it literally like Ascension like you've never seen bro. Yeah, because you remember
01:50:18 Before we went on our little run we had went to Denver and got whooped smack. We had that team eating
01:50:24 Yes, and then everybody was like man like nobody knew what was gonna happen and then making the quarterback change
01:50:30 And then I think after that we play the Chargers
01:50:34 They didn't get in the South South or don't stop and then that's when it starts start to go around and then you play
01:50:40 oh, and it was it was like the vibes was so high like that year like
01:50:45 I think we the Chargers it was like we was winning and like Braves was like
01:50:50 Walk through every day like we wouldn't even like I was like man
01:50:53 Right. She was giving me off like Wednesday Thursday our practice Friday. I'll let the vibes were like immaculate at that time
01:51:00 You know, it's doing Friday's the hardest practice of the week. Yeah, that was that we was that we was rolling us
01:51:04 Oh, she was fun. I don't know about you. But when we got into the playoffs, it was like, alright now
01:51:09 We had to go play Patriots in our past. I mean we play Patriots once in the playoffs got donkey
01:51:15 But I was thinking to myself. Alright, like maybe we can put up a fight here. I really I really
01:51:22 18 we whooped him at home. Yeah, but I also thought like Brady his everyone's talking about the lion. It's his story
01:51:28 It's his storyline. It's his the Patriots are having their like final last dance, right?
01:51:33 And I'm like this like in my head. I'm like, I don't know if we can beat the Patriots. That'd be sick
01:51:38 But I in my head I don't think it's gonna happen
01:51:40 Yeah, bro
01:51:41 I got the same thing with Kansas City that year - when we were playing in the regular season, right?
01:51:45 It's so crazy cuz like I'm being this year's honestly. I did I
01:51:48 really didn't know like
01:51:51 How like I I got like the experience is fun, but I didn't know like the significance of what we were doing
01:51:58 I was just like in the playoffs winning games like I just having fun. I didn't realize like
01:52:03 You know like could be the only time
01:52:05 No, we a game away from the Super Bowl until I'm just like him away. We were three quarters away, dude
01:52:12 and I remember talking to the
01:52:14 Going to my going to my Matthew loss and FedEx talking to you if it does like man
01:52:18 we were going like unload in Miami like we were going to buy every sweet like
01:52:23 Arthur's dad was like a lot. I mean it was like I was like, man
01:52:26 And the way everybody was to the families were talking about traveling like we had that watch party when y'all played the Ravens and it was
01:52:34 Shoulder-to-shoulder and that first play action was a cleave Raymond. That was a turnover doesn't the first quarter first quarter like the first
01:52:45 Corruption just kind of like yo, they're gonna fucking do it. Yeah
01:52:49 Tomorrow's the MVP that year
01:52:52 Touch on this already. I have never like Casey's really loud. Seattle's really loud
01:52:58 They I have never seen an environment like the bank in that game that specific game
01:53:04 Yeah, when the crowd was it was so loud before like after the national anthem. It was so loud
01:53:09 It was deafening as if it was third and goal or the game
01:53:14 Right now they have whether announcing players and there are people getting the loudest eruptions
01:53:18 I'm about a center getting the loudest eruption some guy who's like a tight end just getting a lot eruption
01:53:24 Lamar comes out towel around his neck in the place fucking blew up
01:53:29 Because once we beat the Patriots and I was like, oh shit
01:53:33 Hey, if we can beat the Ravens, we will go to the Super Bowl and then Earl has said that
01:53:43 Over it was crazy. Oh, I got 200 on y'all
01:53:46 Just pull up the highlights that game and then after that
01:53:55 We ran
01:54:01 We ran we ran Wanda on third and one it was third one. We ran Wanda and one is a open side
01:54:07 outside zone
01:54:09 That literally is can only be ran to like a six-man box has to be like everybody
01:54:14 They brought everybody in the line two guys off the edge and John who misses his block and the guy bounces off there
01:54:20 Can he runs it for what 50 yards?
01:54:23 We literally cannot be touched this is the police is a lucky look at that they bring so much pressure
01:54:31 Yeah, this
01:54:35 Was and that happened is like oh my god, we're gonna win this game
01:54:40 No win this game. My mom was when I knew we won that game when I got that fourth down stop on Lamar
01:54:46 And now he kind of likes me. Yeah, but on the on that it was like that like that first one. I was oh, yeah
01:54:51 It's on
01:54:53 Man, this one did scare me a little bit there, but bro
01:54:56 Yeah, that was like the best environment. I truly have ever seen in a in a football game. It was
01:55:04 It's two games. I was like man. This felt like like college
01:55:07 It was that game and then Seattle in 2021 when you beat them in overtime
01:55:12 I was like Seattle like cuz we were oh, yeah, cuz that was when injuries were racked up like I want to say AJ
01:55:19 No, no, it was down to right. No, I think
01:55:23 Game of the year that's that's the one that you got hurt pregame pregame. Yes. Yeah, I'm ready pregame for that game
01:55:30 Yeah, and it was a cut it was like how bad were you guys down? We were down pretty I think we're down like like two
01:55:36 Touchdowns. Yeah, you know come back and winning over time even this this how loud it was I can't lie
01:55:42 I remember what was sitting down. Um, I was I couldn't even hear like I had to tell you I'm like, bro
01:55:47 You got to talk loud. I cannot hear I hear nothing
01:55:49 You saying just mouth and stuff and hoping you're getting the whole plan. No, it was
01:55:53 Isn't it crazy like being where you're at in your career now?
01:55:57 Oh
01:55:59 Isn't it crazy like being at this point in your career and looking back on this and being like I
01:56:08 Really didn't appreciate it as much as I I should have appreciated it
01:56:12 I've really been thinking this this whole season like I
01:56:16 You know
01:56:17 I wish I would have been more present in the moment and in realizing what was really going on and
01:56:24 how special that time was
01:56:27 Even like with football and then how close like everybody else
01:56:31 girls wives and how close this like everybody was man, it was just
01:56:37 Time that you know, I'll come around to often. No, it doesn't
01:56:42 Just sitting here literally
01:56:45 Right now and then with you know, cuz brave again Friday day is kind of like
01:56:51 That's like that was the book
01:56:54 clothes
01:56:56 Those moments you think it's gonna be forever
01:56:58 Yeah, you're going on the run cuz like you ain't even think like we you you think we think about you possibly not playing
01:57:05 You know in the next three or four years, you know you doing it
01:57:10 You probably like you don't top of the world. I even uh, you know do this for a long time in
01:57:14 2019 and 2020 I was playing like the best football of my life. I was like, bro, maybe I just
01:57:20 I'm just a Tom Brady of office alignment
01:57:25 Never get old dude
01:57:27 Anyway, dude, it was but it was the coolest thing with the office line was we sat down and what was what you do 2000 2018?
01:57:35 No, 2020 2020. I mean 18 is when I the Jaguar 99 yard. Yeah, so 2021 we're sitting down
01:57:41 We're like going through goals as a team. The first goal was get Derek 2000 again. No one's done
01:57:47 No one's out two years in a row
01:57:48 it's the first goal where Vrabel came in the next day and he's like
01:57:52 Hey guys, like I love the fact that you want to get Derek the record or whatever
01:57:56 But we should focus on like a whole team not just individual accolades. All right. Yeah, Braves
01:58:00 He walked out and literally everyone was like get there 2000 yards
01:58:03 Yeah, that was and you would have had it too and that's what was sold like I sort of made it
01:58:08 Made the whole thing so different. That's why you know, we had so much success. We had it was so invested
01:58:14 like, you know and one another and you know the success that we had and
01:58:21 When we did and we like hey, what's like what's going on? What are you doing?
01:58:25 Yeah, I'm like and we could do that amongst one another but no egos getting involved
01:58:30 We might be mad like man, but yeah, really
01:58:33 It just sucks to like the high level of urgency that you all had in this season going on the nine and seven getting to
01:58:40 The AFC championship knowing how hard it is and then the next two years were literally placed
01:58:45 In better we're sitting in better situations record wise and getting a home game getting two home games. So yeah
01:58:52 And just didn't just couldn't come together
01:58:55 You get past the Bengals in that first round dude, we're going
01:58:59 Hey your first game back like you obviously like leave you got to feel it out a little bit
01:59:03 You got to like, you know, you got to get the rust off
01:59:06 And we just couldn't put it together
01:59:10 We ran 54 1 on third and 1 that yeah, I didn't box and I went off of my foot
01:59:17 Always wish I could have played better
01:59:20 Before a former was was balling. I don't know man. I just I was so
01:59:29 Excited to play. I don't know. I'll do you know you we had a way for so long and
01:59:35 When you come back, you just you just want to get in there and make something happen
01:59:40 I don't know just in a game man. I wish we could have just made it happen. I was that was it right there
01:59:46 Yeah, cuz it was all coming through Nashville
01:59:48 Yeah, I'll come with you Nashville all come to know how we needed when that game
01:59:53 It would have been
01:59:55 It'll been us in Casey again in Nashville. You got what you got. We're taking that
02:00:00 I would have been I would have been a game the talk about eruption dude that game
02:00:06 Well when they did all the intros for everybody and it was your first game back
02:00:09 Sold out crowd at Nissan Stadium knowing that Derek had a chance to come back when he broke his foot at that time
02:00:15 I was I know they're saying Derek and come back. I still think about it
02:00:19 There is there that probably one of the sadder moments
02:00:23 Was at the Colts game. I mean he played on the game
02:00:28 I had broken with the whole game and then you I knew it early. I'm like something right?
02:00:32 Then at a time like I started walking on it's hurting but I I thought I can still go a little bit
02:00:38 but
02:00:39 Yeah, I know it was broke early early in the game when it was when we went to uh, yeah
02:00:44 You were on my fantasy team. I tried trading you knowing that the information I knew I was like, hey, I'll go ahead and trade Derek
02:00:49 He's like the number one running back in the league
02:00:51 And like seriously, I'm like, yeah, and so I was trying to trade him and then they came back around like hey
02:00:56 Well, did you know about this broken foot?
02:00:58 Character
02:01:01 Yeah, but with that locker room we were sitting there's me and Ben sitting there just kind of waiting for you
02:01:06 Cuz you do an x-rays everyone kind of piled out or like let's hope it's not bad and you just walked in
02:01:10 Seeing your face and saying like it's over. No, you said that's what you kept saying. It's done. It's over but
02:01:17 Broken. I was like as you were
02:01:20 You were on a pace
02:01:23 My foot was broken, but 68 yards on a broken
02:01:26 You already had it no
02:01:29 I like 900 almost if I could have had a better game without a thousand but week six
02:01:35 Week six. No, I know like almost a thousand yards and we get it. He was gonna get it back to back
02:01:41 If I could have you would have got the record
02:01:43 Record would have crushed the record
02:01:45 It would have been oh, but everything happened for a reason cuz the extra game was thrown in there. Mm-hmm
02:01:52 And he would have demolished the record because the year before he got to 2000
02:01:56 It was at that Houston game where you needed it was always Houston 100 and how many?
02:02:00 100 how many yards going into that last game of the season when you got your 2k 2k I needed
02:02:09 You need something like 200 needed 200 and I
02:02:13 Want to say like 233
02:02:18 230
02:02:22 Something that was not I remember cuz I was at 1777 after we played Green Bay
02:02:27 and
02:02:30 my
02:02:32 My girl's brother's big on numbers. He was like bro. That's seven seven seven. So you gonna get a jack
02:02:37 He text me like seven seven seven. You're gonna get it top click on the game over the game on game log
02:02:42 Go up to stats where it says that's right under
02:02:44 1777 after and then go to the right year. I remember that top right
02:02:51 I
02:02:53 Because I was um, I was uh
02:02:56 234 carries 250 averages seven and a half
02:03:00 Yeah, cuz I remember that Green Bay game cuz I remember we brave took us out early and I could have broke Barry Sanders
02:03:08 record of the most
02:03:10 consecutive hundred yard games on the road
02:03:13 I was like a 93 yards. I needed seven yards and I want to go back in but I was like no
02:03:18 You know what it is. This game is over. No reason. Yeah, that game was crazy, too
02:03:22 Cuz you look at something like hey, you need the hey Derek needs
02:03:25 222 yards 23 yards, whatever it was and you think like no shot. I knew like I knew
02:03:31 I'm not gonna get it after that like first like couple series. I was like, oh man. Oh
02:03:39 Okay, and then they started to cut then they came back. Well, look, I'm yes. We were about what like
02:03:46 21 or something. I'm telling you if I we were up that game
02:03:50 I remember we had an outside zone play and I cut back across the middle and I was breaking free and somehow
02:03:56 Come out and hit the ball
02:03:59 I tell you right now and I promise you I would have a 300 yards that I had
02:04:06 That was a insane play that was yeah, that truly was he was getting off a block
02:04:11 The whole momentum shifted after that I was like, oh my god
02:04:16 Top three most mad you probably ever been and I don't know if I'm like twice that game and I only had like one
02:04:22 Come about we were up. Oh, yeah, we're talking like, you know, we got the South locked up. Yeah, we just won the division
02:04:28 I remember talking to uh T the D line coach and he's like we're trying to get the
02:04:33 The best deep rushing defense like everyone was talking about. Hey, you got a couple series. You're out, right?
02:04:38 Well, I was like, oh my god, and they started coming back
02:04:41 It actually ended up working out that they came back because you wouldn't have got 2000
02:04:45 This was
02:04:46 What a game look at all this people. Hey, hey boys. Oh this this wasn't it? Oh, yeah. Yeah
02:04:52 It was uh, you know, I wanted to highlight something
02:04:56 My first season no fumbles we get a clap
02:05:01 Yeah, knock on wood if you're with me
02:05:06 but um
02:05:09 Yeah, it's been a long time coming man. I always want to do that my career
02:05:14 Got it done. Yeah, well notch on the belt. I mean you had and by the way, congrats how many Pro Bowls now or
02:05:20 What about five my foot longer?
02:05:24 Damn, you didn't get you didn't get a thing to say no bro. They
02:05:28 When you go higher you go higher you can't
02:05:32 Yeah, you can't be on the ballot for both because it's just wild cuz Jeff made the purple
02:05:37 I'm telling you cuz I was like
02:05:40 DJ what got hurt last year and he still met like some dudes make it just off name alone
02:05:44 That's what got it one year. It's still finished ninth and I missed nine games in the league
02:05:49 Cuz then all of a sudden remember they started talking about Jonathan Taylor's the MVP. Yeah, and they were like what 300 yards behind you
02:05:57 I'm not he was bald enough, but he was but imagine where you would have been that day you're at that point the year
02:06:02 Yeah, let's just speculate
02:06:06 Are you getting 2300 yards you think?
02:06:10 I think I would have wrote the Russian record. No, no question. What is the what is the record?
02:06:15 He's gonna five
02:06:18 How do you think you would have?
02:06:20 Reset it check that 2300. I think I think I'll probably rush for I
02:06:24 Think I probably rush close to 22
02:06:30 That would have been a moment to
02:06:35 You'd almost like to get break it in the 17 weeks so that way there's a shadow there's no doubt
02:06:40 First like oh he got it cuz the extra game like the extra game. You just want it. You just want to pad it
02:06:46 What could have been?
02:06:49 I mean, we're already looking at a Hall of Fame career brother

02:07:46 So of all the things in your career so much more to talk
02:07:49 All right, well y'all have nothing I feel like we got so much more to talk about
02:07:52 Well, yeah all the things on as long as you want
02:07:55 Of all the things in your career with the Titans reminisce on all that what do you wish you did differently?
02:08:00 I was telling that you wish you
02:08:02 handle differently
02:08:04 Be differently in your game like something that was like if I I wish I could have fixed XY and Z
02:08:09 The first two years. Yeah, cuz I was just like
02:08:13 My head just wasn't in it. I was just like, you know, I was
02:08:22 Had the why me's then just embracing it and you know, just
02:08:28 Attacking a different that's the thing. I wish I could have just started better than 18
02:08:35 having a better approach because I had the why me's and
02:08:39 16 and 17 which I know can being able to start, you know
02:08:46 The later in the season the playoffs and 17 doing 18 King, you know, I just I I wouldn't do what I needed to do to
02:08:54 Do what I wanted to and you know end up, you know biting me
02:09:01 Through the season but later on I end up doing I needed to do and only
02:09:07 Getting stride. I think that's yes. That's the only thing and you know, not winning the Super Bowl
02:09:12 That's awesome being it back in my yeah. Yeah, you know you get that close and home
02:09:16 Being with being with the organization as long as I have been you just wish you could have
02:09:23 brought
02:09:26 At least one here
02:09:28 Cuz I hate seeing that only teams that have one to sue boy every year. It comes out. Yeah, I'm sorry after the Super Bowl
02:09:33 That's yeah, probably my biggest regret. I remember
02:09:38 when I first got here used to always try to get me to talk and always it was just I
02:09:43 Don't know my head would just went in it you had you that's like part of the growing - it's like obviously hindsight's 2020
02:09:50 But being a young player you get drafted to Marco Murray's here
02:09:54 Like even when you know, it's my first year in 18
02:09:57 But that staff will a floor in them like they you know, not that they were favoring somebody or the other
02:10:02 But they were really trying to get Dion in the picture
02:10:04 I want to say if I remember back in old podcast and you talked about it was like maybe that was the year you and Eddie
02:10:09 Talked to whatever were you like you're trying to do too much
02:10:11 But I feel like that's like the growth right of every player
02:10:13 But unfortunately you were somebody who was able to have the awareness enough to know
02:10:17 Like I got to start leaning this way like into my strengths here mentally here and yeah, cuz um
02:10:23 Yeah, mark in girl helped me out a lot class always call him
02:10:27 Always call him and you know talk about everything. He just told me to be patient
02:10:31 You know everything that happened where I wanted to my coach Burton Burns from Alabama. I'll call him a lot
02:10:37 Sean Alexander always
02:10:40 reach out to me
02:10:41 send me quotes from the Bible just
02:10:44 Motivational messages that that helped me on every day and they played a big part in as well
02:10:50 So I just want to highlight them and then me always looking up to Eddie
02:10:53 you know anytime I see him he always had advice and
02:10:55 He came to a game he played in London in 18 and he felt like I could have played better and then when they made
02:11:00 the change I reached out and then gave me some advice and the rest was
02:11:04 rest was history, but um
02:11:07 Yeah, I sent y'all that article
02:11:11 Athletic
02:11:15 God I came out article. She did a great job, but I know want to be cowboy. I know
02:11:20 No say that I said, I thought the Cowboys were
02:11:25 Going to draft me, but I never I ain't no want to be cowboy
02:11:28 I feel like whatever was supposed to happen happened just where I was supposed to be
02:11:33 But I just want to clear it up and I definitely wanted to say I didn't mention Delaney as one of my vets who was
02:11:39 a great leader a great teammate and somebody that was always
02:11:43 Positive and gave me advice always had getting injured in the locker room
02:11:49 and um somebody who always made plays when the play need to be made and
02:11:54 I love D wall
02:11:56 there's awesome now that because
02:11:59 Obviously like you're etched in stone as a Titan legend for eternity
02:12:03 But looking back when you were pre-draft everything else
02:12:07 Did you have spots you you were hopeful to go to like just being a fan of certain teams?
02:12:11 I was going to the Chiefs as a Titans didn't make that call
02:12:14 What did you want to go though, yeah, where did you want to go?
02:12:18 Like I'm just talking like I want to go to Atlanta. I wanted to go
02:12:24 I
02:12:26 Wanted to go to Miami I
02:12:30 Want to play for the Dolphins?
02:12:33 That's why I wanted to go. That's what I thought I was going and I thought possibly I was gonna go to
02:12:37 The Panthers I
02:12:40 Thought a slim chance I might anybody call cowboys, but I figured they would probably take take Zeke when they did and
02:12:48 Then I'm a business CEO, but I didn't think I would I would go there
02:12:52 and then I think remember the Giants called me during the draft and then um,
02:12:56 Kansas City called and
02:12:59 Titans had a big for them and they end up selecting me but Casey told me they're gonna draft
02:13:05 What was your first reaction when you have to have a Titans? I was shocked. Yeah, I was shocked but
02:13:10 They were
02:13:13 Nudies there so, you know, I'll be straight but I just didn't understand at this time because they had just traded for DeMarco
02:13:20 And I'm just like what's going on? Like, well, right. I didn't know what they what they vision was
02:13:26 I was I was shocked that I was shocked. So
02:13:29 How'd you feel about that?
02:13:33 But he was like I
02:13:37 Would just shock last thing I'm calling six and I was like man no way
02:13:41 Anybody pick it up. I would pick it up and then I know and somebody I was shocked. Oh, this is crazy
02:13:47 Yeah, I saw in that article. I was surprised. I didn't know that
02:13:50 Malarkey got fired after Amy had like said that he was being retained. Yeah, we played Kansas City that year in
02:13:58 The playoffs and it was very well known throughout the team that like if we didn't win this game
02:14:03 He was gonna get fired. I was hoping lose the game
02:14:08 I
02:14:10 Would never hope to lose the game, but I did not like marquis and then we played the Patriots
02:14:14 We got dusted by the Patriots. I think we scored one
02:14:16 Touchdown and it was Corey Davis. This is first touchdown of the year. It's rookie season. Yes. That was a home a
02:14:25 Good article and a
02:14:29 Lot of things I didn't really know about you know that I was gonna say very in-depth like a big-time storyline
02:14:35 Back from the beginning. No. Yeah, there's a yeah that was really well written a lot of good sources
02:14:41 It's a that's awesome. I dread I didn't like him. I mean, I don't know. I mean he might have thought that but you know
02:14:47 I was had love with your ass. Awesome. We thought I didn't like him cuz what he said, but
02:14:50 That's him just being a leader, but I ain't never had no problem with you
02:14:53 Roger was all you didn't like drill Casey, but you really thought that because there's a point in time where I was
02:14:58 uh, I went back to school and the show to OTA because I was
02:15:02 Finishing up school trying to graduate and I came a little later. He was just sitting on the message that people didn't show up
02:15:07 Well your first couple years it was very difficult to know whether Derek liked you or not
02:15:15 Yeah, I know I was very quiet. Like I said, I was just in my head and you know, I wish I would have been
02:15:19 more attacking and you know
02:15:22 more I
02:15:25 Don't know this
02:15:28 More
02:15:31 Embracing the moment rather than you know, why this why that?
02:15:35 Just a lot. You know, I was just
02:15:38 Part of myself about and you know the whole situation was your mentality
02:15:44 You think that was the biggest problem was like picking up the playbook. It was at the speed of everything like
02:15:49 That was difficult for you in the beginning
02:15:52 I don't know but I just didn't like it and I was just like looking at everybody else that I knew and
02:15:57 The places they were at I was like, I didn't end up there or why am I here?
02:16:02 You know this had all these questions
02:16:05 Rather than just it's going to get it like this, you know, forget it like make the best of it
02:16:11 Mm-hmm, and I know that's the mindset I should have had but I just was just like, you know
02:16:18 Didn't like the situation I was in and you know dwelling on it too much
02:16:23 the cool perspective you get to have now is is like when you were younger you all these guys that like Zico and the
02:16:30 Cowboys these other guys are in
02:16:31 better spots essentially from like a record standpoint from a franchise standpoint, but you now get to have the
02:16:37 narrative of being like you were able to
02:16:40 Make a franchise cool
02:16:42 Like give people a reason to root for the Titans and like go from because when you got in there
02:16:47 Five get we win five games in two years
02:16:50 You get in and it was nine and seven nine and seven nine and seven like you were a part of
02:16:53 Taking a franchise a poverty franchise for lack of a better word that no one really cared about that a city was like hey, by
02:17:01 The way, there's a game on Sundays if you want to go catch that but look at all the stuff there's to do here
02:17:04 You gave people a reason to be like, you know, the Tennessee Titans are cool
02:17:09 This is cool. And this is why it's cool. This is that look at their running back. Who's that guy? He's massive
02:17:13 Oh, it's Derek Henry. Who's Derek? Hey, oh, he won the Heisman. Oh, he just ran 99 yards
02:17:18 Look at this did this like yeah, look at this different like you
02:17:21 Instead of being somewhere that's already established as we'll just use cool for lack of a better word
02:17:25 Cool, you know get to be like at this time this time frame in life
02:17:31 You were a big reason why a franchise was evaluated and kids were like I want to root for this team
02:17:37 I appreciate that and that's why
02:17:39 You know, um, you know, I said what I said on Instagram post
02:17:44 you know, I hope I left the fans with something that they can smile about and be proud about and
02:17:50 you know, I'm
02:17:52 proud and happy that at some point that felt like they had some bragging rights for their team and um, and
02:17:58 No, it's blessed to be and you too and you're part of it too to be able to help turn it around
02:18:05 Because we mean we all put in work to help do
02:18:10 What what what what happened throughout those years that we had that run and um, no just cool to
02:18:17 Be able to do something like that, you know me coming from Bama and then
02:18:22 What was our record a year before but we can't I can't be in 13. Yeah, and then that's going
02:18:27 that last game missing the playoffs and then making the playoffs and it was just
02:18:32 It was cool, man, and I hope that
02:18:36 All young kids were inspired. Hope I was somebody that they can look up to
02:18:42 I'm somebody that they you know
02:18:45 grow up to want to be better than at this football or anything, but like
02:18:50 You know, I'm blessed. I'm I'm thankful. You know as a kid
02:18:55 playing this game
02:18:58 The impact that you know God allowed me to have I mean, that's what you want
02:19:02 You know, I mean, you know, I'm getting a bit I mean, like I said, I want to win the Super Bowl
02:19:06 I ain't done playing I ain't close to done playing. I still feel I can run for
02:19:10 another 2000 but um, that's for you know the future to tell but
02:19:16 Great so what it what is next for Derek Henry?
02:19:20 See, how do you feel like you're approaching this free agency outside of like financial security? Is it like I want to be part of a
02:19:28 Super Bowl contender. Yeah, I definitely I mean, I'm gonna be somewhere that
02:19:32 What I mean, whatever happens that gives me the best shot of winning the Super Bowl, you know
02:19:38 The business side is a business side, you know at in the day I mean
02:19:44 It has to make sense
02:19:46 I'm just not going you know, just just accept anything at the same time because you know
02:19:53 It's a long season put our bodies to a lot at the same time
02:19:56 I definitely want to be on a roster that
02:20:00 you know can go out there and put ourselves in position and
02:20:05 be able to win games and
02:20:08 Getting the playoffs and contend for a ring. Yeah, we say stuff like that. It seems like the door to the Titans is closed
02:20:16 um
02:20:18 And that's not a bad thing if it is I'm not I'm not I'm not saying it like it's it's closed
02:20:24 But I just feel like like I said earlier I feel like they're going in a different direction
02:20:27 I feel like today definitely solidified that and that's okay that that happens
02:20:34 That's the nature of the business. We want something to last for
02:20:39 Forever nothing nothing does especially in this business
02:20:43 So, you know, I'll you know, I'll always be a Titan. Um
02:20:47 even if I don't come back, but
02:20:53 At the end of the day, you know, I want to win the Super Bowl and whatever
02:20:58 Wherever that is that gives me the best chance and that's that's what I want to do. But like it ain't I mean, I don't
02:21:06 Have no bad blood of no type of way if I'm not back. Mm-hmm. It's just
02:21:12 You know what was supposed to happen?
02:21:15 Stomping the story already written, you know, we all we all just living it. Yeah, I have
02:21:20 his
02:21:22 Stats his rank all-time as a Titans running back
02:21:25 What
02:21:31 Just giving you flowers, you know, but no but no no, but no, I just you know, I feel like um,
02:21:37 I don't know man. Here's what I mean, bro 90 touchdowns like number one by set like
02:21:43 17 is you're 17 over the second place person, which is Earl Campbell, which is what a name to be to be in the conversation with
02:21:52 There's some dope things bro. Like Taylor was saying earlier like you did you made like now I know that you talk like it's collective
02:21:58 It is it's no no. No, no. No, it is collective, but it's just like I
02:22:03 Don't know. It is something about I'm just like, you know, I
02:22:07 Know
02:22:10 Parts that wise, you know, I'm in a conversation with the grace that play here, but I just feel like I
02:22:18 Don't know this black have it done some so much more but that's just me and I you know, I'm not it's a reason
02:22:23 Why you're so successful. That's just that's just me. Well, I mean, I
02:22:26 Appreciate you doing that but I don't want to hear it. I want to hear here's what I'll say to this
02:22:31 There are they're pretty nuts. Oh, yeah, there are
02:22:34 records that are so within reach and
02:22:38 So like obviously like you're gonna do what you do and I would never say that you need to go here
02:22:42 If we just played the hypothetical game of you staying with tides just playing the hypothetical game
02:22:47 Pretty sure you need like 600 more yards to get 10,000
02:22:50 I'm you need you got a touchdown in this last game. You have one or two touchdowns in the last game
02:22:54 Not only not only for a thousand but to lead
02:22:56 Yeah, be Eddie George, Tennessee, and then you had you need ten more touchdowns to lead I think
02:23:03 Being a crazy
02:23:05 There's a record more to know ten more to get a hundred touchdowns and more to get a hundred but there's something else
02:23:08 There's something that I think Nate Bain was telling me about or puff was telling me about that was like that's nuts
02:23:14 That is in my mind the incentive of legacy as opposed to it
02:23:19 Let's say you were thinking like you just said I'm gonna play a lot more I can still run for 2000
02:23:22 Hypothetically speaking if we were sitting in a situation where you're like, I got one or two more in me
02:23:27 staying with the Titans and
02:23:31 Getting those records and cementing what is already cemented, but just adding to the the beautiful sculpture you've created of Nashville
02:23:38 Would be sick. Yeah, but I if I'm you
02:23:43 Would not want to be at the Titans since I don't think the boys got the squad that's gonna I'm not like saying that
02:23:48 Disrespectfully. Yeah. Yeah
02:23:50 I'm like, you know if people because everybody the whole Titans family is gonna root for Derek no matter what no matter what they if
02:23:57 Anything like even when the talks to him of getting traded everyone was not against it
02:24:02 It was if anything he was like on board and it's like man ship him to a team where he can go win a Super Bowl
02:24:06 Yeah, he's had that type of impact
02:24:08 I was like the same with KB everybody like well at least he gets to go
02:24:11 You know to the Eagles and it seems like they would at the time like they're still in the playoffs
02:24:15 But hey, you get a shot to go chase a Super Bowl. Yeah
02:24:18 But yeah, I feel you like to me
02:24:21 He doesn't necessarily need all because he's say I forget how many hours like five six hundred yards behind like Eddie George
02:24:26 But on 700 less carries, I mean, it's a crazy number. Oh for real. That's a crazy thing that
02:24:31 Told you not to I know I know
02:24:37 Yeah, you do you are the best not the best of burger rankings, but you're one of the best to run the football
02:24:41 It's hard to accept compliments, it's hard to get complimented especially when we're all just in here and the focus is on you
02:24:48 Yeah, but you're the best back in Tennessee Titans franchise history and that includes the oil
02:24:52 I'm happy to know bro. Hey, you're the man. I appreciate y'all but I don't know. Let's move on. Let's make fun of Derek now
02:24:59 Let's um, let's
02:25:04 Come in dressing 10 out of 10 for team meeting in the morning. Yeah, like what time you getting up to dress like
02:25:11 Remember when Derek had that hair the the beast thinger? Yeah
02:25:17 Yeah, coach Ray was trying to coach him on how to run the football
02:25:21 I've never run the football, but maybe if you just yeah you you you run the football, right?
02:25:25 I mean not me, but if you just and Derek I just sat there. Yeah, I just stared at him
02:25:33 What we gonna say about 2020
02:25:35 I never forget that time. I'm what I suit and you and I was just I was where and I see you tweet
02:25:40 He was like, I know we're not taking pictures right now and the Titans are not posting any outfits
02:25:45 He was like this suit Derek has on I mean it is like what did the snakeskin one?
02:25:50 Yeah, he was like it was like some John Wick John
02:25:52 Ma'am
02:25:57 You did last time you're on the show. You said you've never worn the same suit twice. Is that still no I did
02:26:02 I wore that suit again. Did you?
02:26:04 Bro, yeah, there's like too many you had that one. I don't it was like
02:26:09 Yeah, what do you think? I remember you're talking about. He says somebody's a lime green when I were - yeah
02:26:16 What's all with the lime green was like?
02:26:19 Anybody else that on they look imagine you and me wearing that suit
02:26:24 Like I'm ready for Serena
02:26:31 Yeah, bro, but even like a solid one even uh, even daily you'd have the fits on
02:26:38 You have the shoes and match every like you come in ready
02:26:42 Yeah, like disrespecting like I ain't got no drip man. Like I ain't one of the you know, one of the best in the league
02:26:48 I don't be saying I just you know, I'd be quiet
02:26:57 Is there ever a fit you put on though and you got home after a game you're like, hmm, maybe not
02:27:02 It was something I'm just like, I don't really care today depending on how the season was going
02:27:09 I was I only put something on in and go play
02:27:11 But it's like some fits I get max. I'm just like here. All we do is I don't know about y'all
02:27:18 I'll just go to the stadium and I go home
02:27:19 So the outfit basically like got a picture in there, but I ain't get to really wear it where like I like I want to
02:27:25 So I'm trying to get them glasses you had on the other day. Oh
02:27:28 They were LV, but they were like the Pharrell like line that he dropped
02:27:42 Yeah
02:27:45 Let's go to IG man, you pull up the little slow-mo
02:27:51 Derek always has on the face that you just like it's just people like Derek pull it off
02:27:56 We're like
02:27:59 Those fits were literally nobody else could wear those right because he they just fit him exactly how he wanted to fit
02:28:05 They'll had them old school
02:28:07 You feel me
02:28:18 Coming out of the car, you know, he said they're sitting right there. You're like, let me give him some
02:28:22 So much right here
02:28:27 Bro that is so funny. So, you know what I miss what you miss. Let's come over. We just
02:28:40 Have dinner I'll come over Jason be cooking and you know, Bruce will come
02:28:47 Invite me no more
02:28:49 You know what happened? He didn't got skinny on me. He you know doing his little his own thing
02:28:53 Having a world like crazy only holla at me no more minutes, you know
02:28:56 Well, I don't want to bother you during the season. But what happened was is you came over had dinners we hung out
02:29:02 It was awesome. There's that one time we sat for like four hours and just talked about haunted houses and shit
02:29:06 It was a wild deal, but you love Jason's cooking so much
02:29:13 I started to notice that a lot of waffles in my fridge a lot of different stuff in my version my Jason
02:29:19 This is for you. I just go, you know, I
02:29:21 Picked up some side stuff. So who's that for? Who is it? He's like
02:29:24 King
02:29:27 So you started using you started using Jason he had to cut him off
02:29:32 No, I thought I thought I thought you know, I gotta make sure my boys tip-top for the season
02:29:37 Yeah tip-top for the season. Jason is the best chef
02:29:41 He is guys. He's unreal. He um, yeah, do you come up whenever you want?
02:29:46 I was gonna invite you last night for the stream, but I
02:29:49 Couldn't
02:29:51 Probably live early
02:29:53 Like the time we did the draft at my house
02:29:55 Yes, there it came to the draft. We did the draft. The first pick was
02:30:00 Was you or somebody else was Christian McCaffrey? No, I can't no no, that's right. Cuz it's been Jones, right?
02:30:07 And I picked Derek with like the third pick and as soon as there goes because I'm a guy I'm a slide
02:30:11 There's a reason why it's like he had the wings in there and I ain't had nothing in my stomach
02:30:18 I'm like man, let me get out of here. But I'm I'm alive by about five of them. I leave
02:30:23 What's the wing place we always go to I go strikeout right now and uh, it's talking to him he's like, yeah, man
02:30:32 I you know, I don't
02:30:34 All his diet. I'm all your master. Try that and then I leave and I hear man
02:30:38 I was I was like, uh, yeah, I'm gonna kill no means like yeah, Taylor had I said Taylor
02:30:43 Tell her had a couple of wings. He's like, yeah, he had a
02:30:45 Bruh, so you you end up eating the wings? He's like bro. I only have like one
02:30:50 Be a grown man being talked to by another grown man about having one wing
02:30:58 There for a week. He's like, oh you're not about that. You're not about the diet
02:31:02 Literally became a competition with Derek who could stay on the diet the longest
02:31:05 So what what died are you are you on now, but that's how I picture you like
02:31:09 I forgot what I was but you were like, it's crazy the transition you have made
02:31:12 Yeah, it is it's nuts because I really thought like I was I was a lean tackle and I thought I was not gonna be that
02:31:18 Big of a change, but there's been a massive change the diet I'm doing for the most part
02:31:22 I've definitely fallen off the wheels especially this past weekend ice cream
02:31:25 I cannot help myself with ice cream, but I try to do no carbs
02:31:29 No carbs high protein and then I do you were doing carnivore. I was doing car. I'm supposed to do carnivore
02:31:34 I got a bunch of blood work done. I got these little worms in my stomach
02:31:37 Got worms
02:31:39 For those you listening. I got worms. Yeah
02:31:41 I'm all I'm all good. I just gotta get him out of there like stay carnivore until we can figure out the plan
02:31:46 So we were in Montana this past weekend and will and JP get Dairy Queen
02:31:49 I was like, I'm gonna stay away from that we get stuck in Chicago for like four hours. I land
02:31:55 I didn't even think about it. I just ended up at Dairy Queen and I had a blizzard
02:31:59 And then late there at the game
02:32:01 Yeah, it was uh, we was at the airport and we're eating sushi and Taylor starts eating sushi
02:32:06 I don't like I don't say anything. I'm just thinking like, oh, maybe he's just like, you know
02:32:09 He's gonna like treat himself or you know, maybe he's not doing carnival for this moment
02:32:13 then we were in the United Club area and then I see him come with a sandwich I was like man that carnival you just
02:32:20 Fuck it today, huh? Yeah, you know how it goes and then the next day he's a hey
02:32:26 Yeah, I dude I do so good of staying on it for weeks
02:32:29 But if one thing happens if I have like that sushi or something
02:32:34 Yeah
02:32:34 There's nothing because you feel like an inconvenience for the boys because you guys want to get sushi
02:32:38 All right, cuz I was like do you want to go check that one down there?
02:32:40 Cuz I'm trying to do I was like man
02:32:41 There's the Italian spot that the night before I figured there'd be more of a menu
02:32:45 But I'm always trying to think like hey, you know, I know you can make whatever work
02:32:49 But what would be a feasible spot for like carnivore, right? And so the minute I have something it just goes downhill for me
02:32:55 Yeah, the point where I spiral I'm like, I'm just sorry. I mean everything reset tomorrow. Yeah. Yeah, that's always the time
02:33:01 I reset it's all good. Enjoy right now. Yeah, man. I'm down 60 pounds right now
02:33:05 I'm down 60 pounds and people are still like hey come to the Steelers. I'm thinking bro. I'm 258. No
02:33:10 There's no way I can go block for anybody right now
02:33:13 Maybe in August 60 pounds
02:33:17 But you feel a lot better
02:33:21 Yeah, my back feels better my shoulders my knees still hurts all the time but like from a like a joint standpoint
02:33:26 I notice a massive difference. You don't even really notice when you're done. What you gonna do?
02:33:31 I mean, he's gonna so he's gonna live like that. I was my
02:33:37 Start a podcast, you know
02:33:40 Boys now, I know Derek was reached out to about doing a podcast a couple years ago
02:33:46 Just be holding it out for nobody out there. You better
02:33:49 You never know. I don't know what I might have been venture into but
02:33:54 We'll see. I forgot to mention. Um, it's another sad day
02:33:59 You know for the crew art man. I know I'm like, man
02:34:05 Already with some ads of the day though. Yeah, I think game. What'd you think about that? I
02:34:10 Mean look, I don't mean I don't know what goes on in a locker room
02:34:17 And if that's what they decided to do or a teammate, I'm a player
02:34:22 So I'm always with the players they felt like, you know, and I'm a running back and I felt like
02:34:28 you know with Jamal in league and
02:34:31 Touchdown last year ain't scoring this year. I mean, I felt like I was from a team standpoint
02:34:36 I felt like that was nice of them to want to do that for him. But at the same time
02:34:40 It's like dang is like and art. That's my guy and I feel what he coming from
02:34:47 it's just like man, you know, it was just a
02:34:50 Little bit of bad timing and if it was like, uh
02:34:54 You know, they're up like like like one score probably a little better, but it was whooping them
02:35:00 So I felt like art was just like come on man and his reaction
02:35:04 I mean, I understand his reaction that the same thing. Yeah, cuz he thought it was Dennis. He thought was coach Allen. Yeah
02:35:09 Basically James was like now we're gonna get him in there
02:35:12 My thing is like just just line up just don't get in the victory like line up in a formation to be a they might
02:35:17 Be running a play here. Yeah, I feel yeah, this well
02:35:20 Yeah, this is running like if you're gonna play this this run to play at the same time. That's like I
02:35:25 Don't know man. I'm I'm I don't know
02:35:28 I just feel like that was kind of cool to your teammates want you to sure. I don't know
02:35:34 That's like to me. I hate that it happened to art because the arts are a guy but I love it
02:35:38 I love the move you do
02:35:42 I do love I love that they schemed it up NFC South game
02:35:46 Like it just adds to the rivalry between the Saints and the Falcons
02:35:50 That's a good and I think like for future like that bulletin board material remember what they did to us
02:35:54 Like that's what adds like that's how Alabama and Auburn became more rivals like is like dirty shit happening
02:36:00 That's how Michigan and Ohio State happened. Yeah, but I don't have an art
02:36:04 But also it's like to me just as to a fun storyline that
02:36:07 Inevitably will get more views going to the next time the Falcons in the Saints great and I love everybody
02:36:12 Yeah back in Jamison having his back on the situation. I love Jamie. I love how I handled that interview afterwards
02:36:18 Yeah, I mean, this is him being him. I love how everybody back
02:36:22 James is so funny, bro. Yes. He's like the team the team just I so if you disagree you disagree with the team
02:36:29 Our love is that?
02:36:32 Funny dude, he's like the most like not try hard to be funny funny guy of all time
02:36:37 He's always yeah, he's always making the same the funniest shit. You got one in the Super Bowl
02:36:42 Hmm. Hope the AFC for sure for those of you
02:36:47 That purple and black that's what I got over the Niners. Yeah
02:36:53 That huh, I'd be mad I mean, I mean
02:37:04 Don't worry I had nobody really if they're really that solid as well
02:37:08 I mean, they I think they probably gonna meet again, but I think the Rangers gonna take it tomorrow ballin
02:37:13 Reality right now to
02:37:16 Find out of this world. So I think it's gonna be
02:37:19 Baltimore and San Fran if I had to guess there's Buffalo can be sneaky as well as a didn't caught fire and then my home
02:37:27 damn my homes
02:37:28 Yeah, but my homes I feel like
02:37:30 This they're just not doing it. But I am rooting for
02:37:34 Or Philly to I want to see my dog. Hey be get a ring
02:37:37 AJ over there. I know man. They just they have not trended well at the end of the year
02:37:42 I think they lose maybe over there slim Reaper who Lee over there and Jalen all them being Bama boys
02:37:48 I want to see Philly I
02:37:50 Be cool to see Philly make a run by this don't
02:37:53 They got something broken there right now
02:37:56 They just can't figure it out. Do you feel like they only came to my boss?
02:37:59 My Philly would be a game because we didn't see you Sam Fran and I think Baltimore beats the brakes off of Philly
02:38:04 Yeah, he's a so yes boy. Philly's been playing recently
02:38:09 But it's got one
02:38:11 that finger
02:38:13 Like a fully healthy Philly then they beat the brakes off of them
02:38:16 No, I thought Philly was was humming before they got to that last stretch. Yeah, yeah, they're last like six games
02:38:22 It was like
02:38:24 Cuz I kept saying like, okay, they'll get back on track this week. Okay, they'll get back on track this week
02:38:30 By the Giants even do this I thought it's be the team that's the healthiest, you know, yeah
02:38:34 That's why that's why Sam Fran so dangerous because they're really healthy
02:38:38 Yeah, and the only thing I got them is hell at the bar. Oh, man
02:38:41 I know and they do a good job of coming off the by you know
02:38:44 That's what'll be interesting about Baltimore because the only really track record they haven't come off the bias. Yeah
02:38:49 Yeah, but I feel like Lamar is in that Kobe Bryant
02:38:54 Mamba mentality type of situation right now right now, which goes back to like their beginning part of a conversation like
02:38:59 If you're gonna have the mama mentality, you can never reminisce. There's no like what we just did
02:39:05 for this last hour, I
02:39:08 wonder if Kobe ever like
02:39:11 Damn, look what I look at all that I was able to accomplish
02:39:14 I think every now and then I think I think with with Kobe. I mean you gotta
02:39:19 You know tip your hat to yourself
02:39:24 With what what he accomplished. I'm sure he did he might not have did it publicly which I don't know but like
02:39:30 What he accomplished and everything that you know, he did throughout his career
02:39:39 I mean, how can you not tip it out to yourself?
02:39:44 Oh mentality man, you gotta have that
02:39:48 Every day every day. That's what I'm saying. Like you sit there and you're like a job's not finished
02:39:53 and if he's got the hardest lines like Kobe really is one of the most athletes and will emulate their mentality about
02:39:59 But Lamar definitely seemed like he's got that right now. I really think if they can get out of the divisional round
02:40:05 There you go
02:40:08 Baltimore
02:40:11 Yeah, you basically you need to get out of that by a week and if they pick up where they left
02:40:15 Oh, where's that? Um, Casey, Miami, I think Kansas City wins
02:40:19 When they're cold
02:40:24 Yeah, I think it's more about the cold both your edge rushers get Achilles and knees like really Miami's injured
02:40:32 My case in Kansas City, they'll go in playoff mode. Like yeah, they're veterans
02:40:36 They've been there before they've got the guys that have tasted the sweet nectar of a Super Bowl
02:40:41 Like they can't see he's already beaten them in the past in Germany
02:40:45 You taking
02:40:51 I'm gonna take
02:40:55 What about Houston Cleveland Houston Cleveland
02:40:59 I'ma take
02:41:09 Mm-hmm inward whistle. Yeah
02:41:13 Yeah, I used to do I it's what I used to do I'm gonna take
02:41:23 I'm taking Houston. Yeah, I'm taking Stroud Stroud. I think flag goes a stud, but I think Flagler gives it the ball a lot
02:41:34 We had this conversation
02:41:37 I think Stroud's really that dude for me to say I think
02:41:41 Houston as well. I mean Nick Aran's here a damn boy
02:41:46 and then you know, they already
02:41:50 played
02:41:53 Cleveland so they got a lot of film to learn from and you know game plan off of because
02:41:59 300
02:42:02 Yeah, so I think I think Buffalo beats the brakes out the Steelers
02:42:08 The Beast is still as you know, yeah
02:42:10 Tampa Philly
02:42:12 Tampa Philly
02:42:13 Mmm, it depends on
02:42:15 How help how healthy
02:42:19 Really is and if they can get to Baker than I got Philly. I know it's such a weird game weird
02:42:25 Hey in Philly here at Tampa Bay. I know who went in that next one, though
02:42:31 Wait, no, I'm talking about
02:42:33 Who went out of the temple? Oh, yeah, you talk about it. I'm gonna go to San Fran. Yeah, I think the
02:42:39 Knocking off Detroit Detroit in the Rams
02:42:42 It's gonna go I'm gonna go I'm gonna go Detroit
02:42:47 Is our boy gonna play cuz he hurt his knee right the tight end
02:42:53 It seems like he's got an outside chance of playing so probably not
02:42:58 Don't think he's gonna play if he don't play. It's how I know I I
02:43:02 Feel like he gives them an edge a little bit
02:43:05 Well, I might I'm probably I don't know
02:43:10 That was Green Bay when those I
02:43:17 Got Green Bay
02:43:18 You got Green Bay
02:43:20 Yeah, I don't think I don't think Dallas has it when it comes to like Dallas at home
02:43:24 I don't think Dallas has it when it comes down to strategic football. Oh
02:43:28 But all I feel like them at home. They're gonna be out front way better team
02:43:33 Yeah, like it won't be like a crunch time situational game. Yeah, I mean, I is you right?
02:43:37 I could very well be wrong about that the Detroit and the Rams
02:43:41 That game is the the best game in this this week in the wildcard weekend as we were talking this earlier agree
02:43:48 But oh boy plays we don't play
02:43:51 Yeah
02:43:53 I'm rooting for whichever team I'm rooting for both of them. Anyway, I
02:43:57 Want I think it'd be sick for Detroit to win a Super Bowl. Yeah, I did too. That'd be cool for them
02:44:01 It's cool
02:44:02 The Rams like the Bay taking that team because they kind of started off similar to like the way y'all did in 19
02:44:07 They start off like one in five or something like that
02:44:09 Yeah, yeah anything else for Derek, I don't know I don't think so anything for us
02:44:16 No
02:44:19 I'm good. This was smooth. It was cool. Relax. It was nice. It was fun reminiscing
02:44:24 That was those are the best locker room talks
02:44:27 there you're like
02:44:29 What it remember remember back when this happened was your favorite moment as a Titan?
02:44:35 My favorite moment as a Titan that uh that run we had
02:44:40 You seen finish them up individual play. I'm talking about is it 99? Yeah, that's how it all
02:44:48 Started we called it - every time I as if I might taking credit for the play call. Yeah, I called that
