Good Morning, Hello,
0:26
Hello, everybody, Welcome
0:28
in final hour of Good Morning
0:30
Football in the beautiful New
0:33
York City studio.
0:34
It's Thursday, March twenty eighth. I'm Colleie Wolf.
0:36
Oh inside, Kyle Brant, Jason mccordy,
0:39
Devin McCarty.
0:40
Do we have any more mccordy's coming in? Who else?
0:42
Family members? Extended family? We do?
0:44
We actually do we do.
0:45
Let's good away.
0:46
My mom will be here soon. My older brother will
0:48
be here as well. So yeah, we got we got family
0:50
coming there.
0:51
Do you know that?
0:52
Guy?
0:52
I'm so excited about that.
0:53
We're not breaking them on the show.
0:55
Why they're not TV ran If if I
0:57
love my older brother on the show and we start talking
0:59
cowboys, he may not leave the student.
1:01
He got texts?
1:02
You got many ninety, he
1:04
texted me, Darling. Not many good
1:06
takes though. Frustrated, Yeah, frustrating. It's
1:09
frustrated cowboys fan.
1:11
Yeah, come on, like West of America. Let's get
1:13
him in here. There's two seats. We can get that out.
1:16
Harris at Breakfast Yeah
1:18
that Hey, it's signed for a little throwers.
1:23
Okay, So one of the big signings
1:25
and free agency sent Derek Henry
1:28
to Baltimore. Head coach John Harball
1:30
spoke to our guy Steve Weich down in Orlando
1:33
this week about the impact king Henry.
1:35
We'll have what's the Ravens.
1:38
Just defensively, I mean, just real football.
1:40
It's one thing to have a reputation. It's
1:42
another thing to have challenge
1:45
of defending him. You know, just the fact that you've got to
1:47
tackle him. He gets ahead of steam going
1:49
whether it's in the A gap or outside right. He
1:51
took a fake reverse about seventy yards against
1:53
this last year in London. You know, you don't forget those things.
1:55
Hustings. Let's sings, sting, and they stay
1:57
stinging for a long time. So now
2:00
we respect him. He's he's gonna he's gonna help us.
2:04
All right, First throwdown more impactful
2:07
signing Derrick Henry or another running
2:09
back Saquon Barkley.
2:11
Well, I like sa Kwon, But have
2:13
you guys seen Derek Henry His workouts that he
2:16
does in the off season with no shirt on.
2:18
This guy is unbelievable.
2:21
It's crazy, and I looked at it for Philly Saquon's
2:24
getting there. DeAndre Swift ran for
2:26
a thousand yards last year. Before that, Miles Sanders
2:28
ran for a thousand yards. Do you guys know the last running
2:30
back to lead the Ravens in rushing
2:32
yards? Just a running back leading them in rushing
2:35
yards? Because it's been Lamar Jackson for a while
2:37
now. Last running back Gus Edwards,
2:39
last thousand yard running back for the Baltimore Ravens.
2:42
Who yes, been eighty years
2:44
nice.
2:45
Justin for satt last time, I thought you were gonna
2:47
get that.
2:51
So I'm gonna still be Lamar Jackson this year,
2:53
we shall see.
2:55
I look at the impact that Derek Henry can have on
2:57
this Ravens offense. Where we said it, Lamar
2:59
Jackson's been the leading rusher. Don't
3:02
get it twisted. Derek Henry was really
3:04
good last year.
3:05
He only got.
3:06
About fifty six percent of the playing time
3:08
with them adding Tajy Spears.
3:10
When when he had the ball in his hands, he was still
3:12
going to.
3:12
Work ten touchdowns over one thousand yards
3:15
rushing. Don't just assume because this guy's older,
3:17
that he's gonna slow down.
3:18
He's gonna fall off a cliff. Like I said,
3:20
you've seen his offseason.
3:21
Workouts, and we've mentioned it numerous times. I'm
3:24
sure the Ravens are tired of hearing it. Their running
3:26
backs carry the ball six times in the
3:28
AFC Championship Game with Derek
3:30
Henry on the roster.
3:31
I do not think that happens.
3:32
I think he makes the bigger impact for
3:34
his team of the Baltimore Ravens in sakwondos
3:37
for the Eagles. I have to disagree with you right
3:39
there, Jay Mack. We agreed enough earlier in
3:41
the show.
3:41
Undone. Listen, this Baltimore
3:44
team, they continue to run the ball at a
3:46
high level.
3:47
They ran the ball more than anybody last year.
3:49
They had more yards than anybody last year.
3:51
So adding Derek Henry, yes, he's gonna make
3:54
them better, no doubt about it.
3:55
He's a stud running back. He's done well
3:57
his whole time in NFL.
3:59
But it's not gonna make that big of a difference for Baltimore
4:01
because it's gonna come down to the same thing.
4:04
They throw the ball and win games.
4:06
Now, this Philadelphia Eagles offense, yes,
4:08
they've had thousand yard rushers, but they haven't had
4:10
a guy like Saquon Barkley that.
4:12
When you step on the field.
4:14
The whole game plan, the whole time is in New
4:16
York revolved just around
4:18
him. You had to stop him in the running game, you
4:20
had to stop him in the passing game. Yes, he's
4:23
had some injuries, but he showed last season
4:25
when he's healthy, he can go win some
4:27
football games with DeVito, he can
4:29
win.
4:29
Some football games with Tyrod Taylor.
4:31
It doesn't matter who you have that quarterback, because
4:33
he's that good. And now you add him with
4:36
Devontae Smith, with AJ Brown,
4:38
with Dallas got Her and I see Colleens
4:40
over there, she's smiling because she's a Philly fans.
4:42
She's ready to go.
4:44
So I think Barkley going
4:46
to Philadelphia's gonna be bigger than Derek
4:49
Henry going to Baltimore.
4:50
He probably tackled Derek Henry bunch, right, I mean.
4:52
Try is it different
4:56
hen.
4:58
Yeah, his rookie year, we stomped him
5:00
in twenty seventeen.
5:02
After that, I think he might have sent Brady
5:04
practice the best.
5:05
Yeah.
5:06
Not a fun task though.
5:07
I bet no.
5:08
And I look at this way like Philadelphia,
5:10
I don't know what the hell happened at the end of last year. Like you could
5:12
have put Walter Payton and Jim Brown on that team, and that wouldn't
5:14
have made it. I don't never mind Saquon, Like that team became
5:17
the worst team in the league in like overnight.
5:18
I don't have the Bermuda Triangle of the NFL
5:20
for something.
5:21
Are they coming back because then they lost Kelsey.
5:23
I still trying to figure out what happened to that Eagles
5:25
team. They just got smoked by the Buccaneers
5:27
in the playoffs. They were so done so
5:30
I think they need to change the most and I
5:32
think, listen, if you want to get into the football
5:34
of it, which we probably should, I think Saquon's gonna catch
5:36
a ton of balls, like I really do. I think Saquon
5:38
has a little more to prove. I think Saquon is
5:40
really besieged upon in New York and like
5:42
this is I feel like almost like Saquon's rookie year,
5:45
Like he has a really good quarterback and a good line
5:47
and all that stuff that we've always wanted him
5:49
to have.
5:49
The Giants wide receivers have.
5:51
Been pretty ridiculous over the past couple of years, not
5:53
in the good way. The Eagles are ridiculous in the
5:55
good way. I think it's actually Saquon. I'm fascinated
5:57
by Derrick Henry because we always say perfect
6:00
work ethic meets perfect genetics, and it's Derek Henry's
6:02
thirty.
6:03
He can prove the whole thing if he just has
6:05
this.
6:05
Oh my god, remember Derek was thirty thirty yards
6:07
hell, Yes, I love that.
6:09
I think the answer is Saquon.
6:11
Though.
6:11
Saquon, it's like it's a homecoming for him
6:13
too, so it sort of feels like a real fresh
6:15
start for him everything right now,
6:18
kind of going back home and his.
6:19
Daughter saying, I mean we're gonna win now.
6:21
Like it does feel
6:23
like it's going to be special. And I absolutely
6:25
don't expect people to be wearing run the Ball
6:27
T shirts with Saquon there, and if they are, then
6:30
that's a massive problem. But I think
6:32
in terms of impact, Derreck Henry
6:34
is probably more impactful because
6:36
of Lamar Jackson always being the leading
6:38
rusher, just in terms of team
6:40
composition. But I
6:42
mean, when you look at what Saquon can add,
6:45
that was a luxury signing. Like Howie
6:47
Roseman was looking at the books
6:49
and he's like, look what I can do. Now, let me just go
6:51
and get this over here. I got the doors, and
6:54
now we're cooking with gas. So it
6:56
just feels like it's gonna be Saquon
6:58
in the end, being from Philly,
7:01
outside of Philly, playing at home behind
7:03
that offensive line arguably one
7:05
of the best offensive lines in the league,
7:07
if not the top one. I know the Lions
7:09
will have something to say about that as well, But there's
7:12
that one for sure. Okay, let's go to the next one,
7:14
Lamar Jackson, We're gonna keep it on the
7:17
Baltimore theme here who he was looking
7:19
for recommendation in
7:22
the last couple of days.
7:23
First he tweeted out underrated.
7:25
Scary movies okay cool,
7:28
and then about nine hours later
7:30
he tweeted again underrated
7:32
sci fi and fantasy movies.
7:34
So, judging by the number of comments, Lamar
7:37
should have plenty to watch this off
7:39
season.
7:40
Kind of begs the question here.
7:42
I don't know if you guys are big Friday
7:44
night movie people or just movie people
7:46
in general.
7:46
Kyle, I already know you are.
7:49
I feel like you're still probably talking about done too
7:51
to move me.
7:53
We're gonna get a movie.
7:54
I still feel like I'm on a contact high from that better.
7:57
Friday night movie genre. Is
7:59
it scary movies? Or
8:01
sci fi and.
8:02
Fantasy, whichever you're going don't.
8:04
I don't even know what you said.
8:06
Something you think about it,
8:08
like, yeah, I'm
8:11
looking at this one at Friday night's big. You go home
8:13
from this show, you take a nap so you can stay up and
8:15
watch a night movie.
8:17
College just brought it up. Done is popping
8:19
right now.
8:20
So you're talking about what you're looking to see,
8:22
this is one hundred percent dooing.
8:24
I'm planning on it next week. I'm
8:26
gonna go to the Mattne you're talking about Friday night,
8:29
I'm gonna go see it ten o'clock in the morning,
8:31
before everybody's even there.
8:32
You can't even wait for Friday Night.
8:34
You can't even wait for it.
8:35
Gonna take the wife, gonna get that big
8:37
bowl of popcorn that Dune is
8:39
all famous for, and we're gonna watch
8:41
this movie and we're gonna have an absolute blast.
8:44
So this to me is hands down, has
8:46
to be doing has to
8:48
be doing a sci fi sci
8:51
fi Yeah, but I know it's a sci fi
8:53
movie. But if it's not done, or you're still going.
8:56
Sci fi, yeah, it's a genre. Yeah
8:58
yeah, And I'm talking about right now.
8:59
I'm just making I'm all
9:02
right, I haven't seen doing so you're throwing a lot
9:04
more mccordys.
9:05
We need more mccordy's in here.
9:07
The only answer is wrong because now you're going matinee
9:09
and all of that.
9:10
It's Friday nights. The beauty of Good Morning
9:12
Football is wherever the host wants to take.
9:14
Itee is our night here with our out.
9:17
So it's when you're a guest, you just break.
9:20
It's it's scary because when you line
9:22
everything up, it's Friday night.
9:24
So like Dune, you're gonna go watch Doom
9:27
matinee. Then you're gonna pick up your kids, like that's
9:29
not it. You know, that's not Friday
9:31
night. Kids already sleep. You go scary movie
9:33
because scary movie.
9:35
Leads to what your wife or your girlfriend,
9:37
whatever you got going on. They get a little
9:39
closer, they're scared. So now it turns
9:42
into this chill night start. Scary
9:44
movie has a great ending. Some scary
9:46
movies don't always have a great in it, but your
9:48
night will always end well when you
9:50
watch a scary movie Friday night.
9:52
So it's definitely yeah.
9:54
That's so that's like kind of your own version of like the
9:56
Netflix and chill and.
9:58
Chills, Scar and Chill. Oh
10:01
yeah, that's a scary movie.
10:02
Like I sound a little creepy, but.
10:05
I would go sci fi because of the opposite
10:07
reason.
10:07
I don't know if you guys have this, but Brooke
10:10
like she's out on the scary movies, like completely,
10:12
I've tried to sneak it sometimes, or like she'll
10:14
be out there.
10:15
And I'll just start this movie and she'll say, she's like, what's this.
10:17
I'm like, ah, it's just it's don't worry about It's
10:19
got British royalty in it and you'll love it. And
10:22
then like even when like the credits start, like it should
10:24
be like I'm out you know what I'm saying, Like, man, this
10:27
scary music, And she'll be like, is this a scary movie?
10:29
I don't like this? It makes me good? So she doesn't like
10:31
it, so I have to go sci fi.
10:33
I was gonna say to Lamar, like, if you want like a really
10:36
scary movie, just yeah, you should just watch
10:38
the tape of the AFC title game, Like it's absolutely
10:41
terrifying.
10:41
It will scare the crap out of here. That was a rough
10:44
day for Baltimore guys. It was supposed to be Christmas.
10:46
Everybody's home. We got ray here,
10:48
we're doing the dance. We're gonna beat the cheese. And no, that
10:50
was terrifle. That's like, that's worse than any like.
10:53
Is still mad about it.
10:54
I bet he is.
10:55
That Noise is always chirping about something. Ben
10:57
NOI get in here again and tell us more about it.
11:00
That was a rough one, ben NOI not his best dad either.
11:02
Kyle, I love you, but Jason Devin brought it.
11:04
I would go I would go sci Fi.
11:08
Neither neither for me, like Brianna and I'm
11:11
I'm like, I'm not a huge movie person.
11:14
I love a comedy. I
11:16
don't do rom coms. You hate me right now.
11:18
I'm looking at your face and you're like, you
11:20
gotta get something.
11:22
Well, okay, so how about this. I'm on the plane
11:25
a couple of days ago. I don't even know when I last
11:27
left New York and went to LA but whatever
11:29
it was, says sometime and within the last couple
11:31
of days, and the woman next to me
11:34
puts on Cloverfield and
11:37
I am obviously I'm trying to I'm
11:39
trying to, you know, prep my mock draft live show
11:42
that was coming up and out of the corner
11:44
of my eye. I keep seeing what's going
11:47
on in Cloverfield and that is
11:49
clearly like it's a sci fi movie,
11:51
but I had no context.
11:53
And it's with John Goodman and it's
11:55
like a girl is locked.
11:56
In the base lane.
11:59
That's it.
11:59
Yeah, clearly I did not watch
12:02
it.
12:02
This woman is somewhere at work being like laying
12:04
next to me. She's Drake May going to the Patriots.
12:06
Like, I just don't see it. I think McCarthy
12:09
is the better fit in Boxborough. She's telling the
12:11
same story at her work exactly trying to watch that movie.
12:13
And she has the Vikings training off.
12:15
Yeah I know.
12:16
I mean the audacity of her to
12:18
be watching.
12:18
This movie on the lane. Give
12:20
me a comedy.
12:21
I can't.
12:21
I don't want to be scared.
12:22
I feel like I'm already anxious enough, like
12:25
the world is like a gigantic sci fi movie,
12:27
and then of itself.
12:28
I'm good the.
12:28
Segment it was what you want.
12:31
She just went comics, right, Yeah, I don't
12:33
have anything against her.
12:34
You were wrong, he has no note.
12:35
It sounds for you.
12:36
You're not getting more than ten minutes into the movie anyway, Like we're
12:38
moving on to the next act.
12:40
Movies you can watch movies are
12:42
still in the associate producer.
12:45
His wife is watching cracking up, Like, what
12:47
the hell is he talking about? I know, Friday nights or nothing
12:50
like that. She's actually sitting there like it's only a day
12:52
away.
12:53
Oh really, you know what you can pro
12:55
day and I love brags.
12:57
About cooking up his wife to pick.
13:02
As hell.
13:08
He is a visionary.
13:10
He is a revolutionary,
13:13
and tonight.
13:15
He is exactly where
13:17
he belongs.
13:18
In verse love me Tell Hoddle
13:21
said Breact.
13:25
If I was set freaking Rollins, I might
13:27
think twice about issuing an open.
13:29
Challenge off the top row.
13:31
And our boots off.
13:32
From the second row.
13:33
O splash Rolins
13:35
looking.
13:35
For a splash?
13:36
Could I think that to deliver a suicide
13:38
dive and driving you.
13:40
So into the barricade?
13:41
Great in the
13:44
shop it out.
13:48
Yeah.
13:49
We were telling our kids yesterday, guess
13:51
what Seth Rollins is.
13:53
Coming on the show tomorrow? They go, you mean Seth
13:55
Freaking Rollins, Daddy, Yes, we
13:58
do. He is one of the greatest wrestlers
14:00
to ever do it. The current World
14:04
Heavy Champion, He's won sixteen
14:07
w w E championships in his career
14:09
so far.
14:10
Does not plan on slowing down
14:12
anytime soon. Ladies and gentlemen, let's welcome
14:15
back to the show. Oh yeah, he's got freaking roll.
14:21
I what an intro always I'm in God,
14:23
thank you so much. Good to see you, guys. How you
14:25
doing this morning?
14:27
Fired up to talk to you. We've been talking,
14:30
said, we got to get right into it. WrestleMania's around
14:32
the corner. So's the NFL Draft,
14:34
and the bell of the ball is the Chicago Bears.
14:36
You are a massive Bears fan. We've talked many
14:38
times. You had strong passionate takes
14:40
in the favor of Justin Fields. He is
14:43
currently a Steelers backup allegedly. What
14:45
do you feel right now about what happened to Fields
14:47
and what is coming next for the Bears?
14:50
Oh?
14:51
Man, my guy, he's gone.
14:53
He's out of Chicago.
14:54
I gotta get rid of all the jerseys. I had
14:57
socks with him with his face on him.
14:59
Man, I was, I was all in on Justin
15:01
Fields.
15:02
Yeah.
15:03
I know.
15:03
It's a heartbreaker and I'm sad that he's
15:05
gone. I'm happy that he's landing in Pittsburgh with
15:07
Tomlin Russell Willison. I think it's going to be a decent
15:09
fit for him. I'm missing, but hey,
15:12
man, business is business. If you're in the front
15:14
office and you think you got to take a shot at Caleb
15:16
Williams at number one to transform
15:18
this franchise, I understand that.
15:20
So as much as it pains me, I
15:23
understand how these things go. It's business.
15:25
It's not personal. You got to take the next step
15:27
for your organization. Chicago Fields are doing the right
15:29
thing with Kayleb Williams, so.
15:30
He's my guy. Gotta get me some Kleb Williams.
15:32
Socks, now, damn right.
15:35
It is business and it is what it is.
15:37
And you mentioned that Kayleb Williams seems to be
15:39
the guy for you as a Chicago Bears
15:42
fan and you're representing that community.
15:44
What are your thoughts on Kayler Williams. You guys
15:46
fired up about him?
15:47
You think he could possibly be the first Bears
15:50
quarterback to throw for four thousand yards in a
15:52
season.
15:53
A couple of things. First of all, I love the kids'
15:56
style. I love the style. I love
15:58
the swag.
15:59
There's all this uproar on social media about
16:01
his peak phone case and his peak nails.
16:03
I'm like, come on, y'all, let's have a
16:05
party man. Let's have fun, let the kids live,
16:08
right. But his skill
16:10
his skill set is what I'm most excited
16:12
for.
16:13
I mean, he can make all the throws he
16:15
can, he can react under pressure. You see what he's
16:17
doing in these extra kind of extra time
16:19
plays. He just makes special things happen, you
16:21
know. And his arm talent is second none.
16:24
So I'm really looking forward to seeing what he does with all
16:26
the weapons we got in Chicago, because we're
16:28
a weapon team now, guys, we got weapons
16:30
all over the field.
16:31
It's crazy. So I'm excited to see
16:33
what he can do.
16:34
And I'm going to go as far as to Guarantekee,
16:37
you mark my words right here on this day,
16:39
guarantee he will be the first
16:41
four thousand yard passer in Chicago
16:43
Bears history.
16:44
Guarantee.
16:45
That's it, Caleb freaking
16:48
Williams.
16:48
That's it.
16:49
Yes, sir, Yes, sir, guarantee
16:52
to Chicago.
16:53
So you're a weapons team.
16:55
Now, I want to know about that ninth pick because
16:57
everyone's talking about the first overall with Caleb
16:59
Williams, but they also are picking at
17:01
nine.
17:02
A lot of the mocks have.
17:03
Them going with a wider, whether it's Roma
17:05
Doonza or whoever is left there.
17:07
But also it's such a deep draft
17:09
for wide receivers. So I'm going
17:12
to have you be Ryan Poles in this situation
17:14
in your Sunshine sequence.
17:16
Right now, you are the.
17:17
GM of the Chicago Bears. What
17:19
are you doing with the ninth overall
17:21
pick? Are you taking another wide receiver
17:24
there? Are you taking a different position, or are
17:26
you trading down to gain more assets?
17:29
So the great thing about this ninth
17:32
pick right is I feel like we're
17:34
such a complete team. We're only
17:36
missing a couple little things, and there's no
17:38
like glaring obvious needs.
17:41
So in my opinion, when you get to nine,
17:43
you pick the best available, because
17:46
I don't know how this top ten is going to shake out, especially
17:48
like five through ten. It could go any which
17:50
way. You know, there's a lot of quarterbacks that are going to
17:52
go in the top ten. But like you said, the wide receiver
17:54
class is super deep.
17:56
Man.
17:57
So if you get to nine in its neighbors
17:59
and he's still there for some reason or a dunze
18:01
or something's happened with Marvin Harrison Junior,
18:04
I think you've got to take one of those three guys.
18:06
I mean, they're gonna be game changers. They're gonna be
18:08
young. They're going to add them to this right receiving
18:10
Gore with Keenan Allen and DJ Moore, Like,
18:13
dude, that's going to be a special elite
18:15
group. But you know, you could always use a little
18:17
love on the old line. Bears could use another
18:19
edge rusher opposite Montese Sweat. So it's
18:22
there's their options, and that's great.
18:24
To have it.
18:24
Number nine, I think I'm kind of I'm kind
18:27
of wide open there.
18:29
When are you releasing your mock draft?
18:31
Yeah?
18:32
When we all know we could probably do
18:34
it on our mock Draft live show.
18:38
Look, I'm a Bears fan and I
18:40
love football. I haven't quite got it like
18:42
ironed out yet. We'll give it.
18:43
Give me another couple of weeks. You know, I can't get these early
18:46
monks out. I gotta wait till we get closer to the draft.
18:48
There go. I love this stuff. I love
18:50
the just the passion that you have.
18:52
Man.
18:53
Obviously, the Bears they were not quiet
18:55
and free agency signing guys like Keenan
18:57
Allen, DeAndre Swift, Kevin Bayer.
19:00
How do you think these new additions will help turn
19:02
things around for your beloved Bears?
19:04
What are they going to do this year.
19:05
With these guys.
19:07
Dude, well, look the team is ready to go. Defense
19:10
came on strong the second half of the
19:12
season last year. You know, they played really really
19:14
well, anchored a lot of those wins, and
19:16
so I'm looking forward to seeing what we can do.
19:18
You got to remember, we're playing in a tough division,
19:20
man, tough division.
19:22
The Detroit Lions proven all right,
19:25
they were like everybody was like, Okay, what are they gonna
19:27
do next year? What are they gonna do? And they proved that
19:29
they got what it takes. They're very close to making it to
19:31
the super Bowl. And then there's the Green
19:33
Bay Packers and man, how
19:36
disgusting is it?
19:38
Did they seem to have their third franchise
19:41
quarterback in.
19:42
A row in a row.
19:44
I can't get one.
19:45
I can't get one. They got.
19:48
They're killing me. They're killing me. But
19:50
they're good, man, They're really good. I think they're only going to
19:52
get better. They're the youngest team in the NFL. We're the second
19:54
youngest team in the NFL last year. So look,
19:56
I think we're going to compete, no doubt about it. I'm
19:58
not saying I can't guarantee playoffs.
20:01
This year.
20:01
But you take a rookie quarterback at number one, it's
20:03
going to be Yeah, you want CJ. Stroud,
20:06
but you might end up with a Mitch Trubisky.
20:08
You don't know.
20:08
So at the end of the day, we're
20:10
going to see where we're gonna get to. I'm hoping we
20:13
make the playoffs this year, at least put up a big fight.
20:15
Can't start the season zero to four again, we
20:17
do that, we're screwed. But I think I think
20:19
we're gonna put together a competitive team. I'm excited
20:22
to see what the offense looks like for the first time in
20:24
a long time.
20:26
You know what we love about Seth is that you get
20:28
people to come on and maybe they're wrestlers or actors,
20:30
whatever, and they say they're a fan and
20:32
they can fake it well enough. I got a few notes,
20:35
but they get to my pitch like sets here all
20:37
day to go deep and the Bears depth
20:39
chart drafts pass like you know
20:42
all your stuff. I'm gonna double down, Seth. Let's
20:44
address the Packers' situation because WrestleMania
20:47
is coming up, and as you know, for years
20:49
and years and years, the Undertaker
20:51
had this unbeaten streak at wrestleman, and no one could be
20:53
a no could beat him.
20:54
It's just the thing.
20:55
I feel like the Packers have that right
20:57
now over the Bears. It just looms over
20:59
everything. They have to find their
21:02
lesnar to finally end the streak. Give
21:04
me the state of the Bears Packers quote unquote
21:06
rivalry right now, because I'm with you.
21:08
I mean, look at the numbers. It's not a rivalry at
21:11
all. I disgust me to say.
21:13
I feel like I'm going to vomit as I'm telling
21:15
you this. But Green Bay has owned us. Aaron
21:17
Rodgers, no doubt he is right. He
21:20
has owned Chicago Bears. I think he gave
21:22
Jordan Love a little piece of that realty last
21:24
season. But dude, they put the wood
21:26
on us, and at this point it's a mental hurdle
21:28
we got to overcome. It's mental. I know the game's
21:31
physical, very physical, but dude, there's
21:33
like a psych out kind
21:35
of factor going in. Chicago goes into
21:37
Green Bay or the Packers come in a soldier, and
21:40
I don't think this team thinks they can win, you know, I
21:42
just I think green Bay goes in with such confidence
21:45
that they just put the wood on us. Every time. So
21:47
we got to break that cycle. Man, we got
21:49
to crush them. I don't want to just beat him like I don't
21:52
want to squeak by.
21:53
I want to cross them. And so,
21:55
yeah, I don't know. I'm hoping. I'm hoping.
21:57
Kayleb Williams is our guy.
21:58
Man.
21:58
We got to break that undefeated streak. You know what I'm saying.
22:02
I hear you, man, last game of Justin Fields as
22:04
a Bear, they go to Lambo and put up nine thus in
22:06
the last I mean, it was just so bad. Let's look
22:08
forward to more exciting things, all right. WrestleMania
22:11
Baby forty.
22:14
I don't know how that happened, but seth you're always
22:16
part of it. You're gonna defend your World heavyweight
22:18
title. We see the strap right there against
22:20
the Scottish Warrior Drew McIntyre.
22:23
What should fans expect to see
22:25
from the seth Rons experience at
22:27
the Showcase of the Immortals.
22:30
I got tricks, you know what I'm saying. I got
22:32
tricks. I'm wrestling two knights.
22:34
WrestleMania is two Knights in Philadelphia
22:37
this year. First night, I got myself a tag
22:39
match, me and Cody Rhoades taking on Roman
22:42
reigns and get this right, The Rock,
22:45
The Rock. That's right, Dwayne Johnson,
22:48
Maui himself. He is coming out
22:50
of retirement. He's got one more in him,
22:52
and we're gonna do At Night one, I'm gonna
22:55
take him down.
22:55
I got plans for the Rock. Night two,
22:58
I'm.
22:58
Gonna defend the World Heavyweight Championship
23:00
against Drew McIntyre. You know, he
23:03
is a king of net trolls these days.
23:05
If you follow wrestling Twitter or wrestling X
23:07
whatever it is, now, he's a king and I
23:10
plan to put it into it. I plan to put it into
23:12
it. So it's good man. I got
23:14
a good track record at WrestleMania. You look at all
23:16
the things I've done in the past, the moments
23:18
I made on the grandest stage of them all. I plan
23:20
on making at least two more in
23:23
April in Philadelphia. So it's gonna be a good
23:25
time.
23:26
Man.
23:27
We're gonna be there. A lot of people are gonna
23:29
be there watching you. I love that you are wrestling

23:58
Go Bears, Let's do it.
24:03
Welcome back to Good Morning Football.
24:04
Our next guest is a draft prospect
24:07
who already has his ey set on
24:09
the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He's
24:11
also a first team All American and a projective
24:14
first round draft pick. How need you, guys A Welcome
24:16
to Good Morning Football from the University of
24:18
Alabama.
24:19
Terry One.
24:25
He's applive.
24:28
I love it, man, We appreciate you coming in this morning.
24:30
I got a chance to call one of you guys games. I talked
24:32
to your defensive coordinator, Kevin Steele, and
24:34
we asked about you. He said you had the personality
24:37
of Dion Sanders. I played in
24:39
the league for a long time playing at that cornerback
24:41
position. You need that personality and you
24:43
need to have confidence. Let's
24:46
listen to an answer you gave at the combine
24:48
about being benched in a game and where
24:51
it did for you.
24:54
It changed everything for me. I kind of like to say, I have
24:56
my Michael Jordan moment. I write it down every
24:58
day. Eli Riggs, that's my brother. But
25:00
I mean when I got mentioned and replaced for him, it motivated
25:03
me. I write it down every day, say I refuse to ever
25:05
let that happen again. And that's what's going to lead me
25:08
and take me to getting that gold jacket,
25:10
which is the hall of fame, the gold jacket. I ain't talking about
25:12
the one you could buy, So that moment right there, From
25:14
then on, I refuse to let that happen
25:16
ever again, and.
25:19
I ain't talking about the one you can buy. Just
25:21
talk to us about the type of player that whatever
25:23
team drafts you is going to get when you walk
25:26
in that locker room.
25:28
When I walk into the locker room.
25:30
First thing first, you have to win over everybody, and you
25:32
have to win over the organization. Obviously, they've
25:34
done their research and they feel like I would be a great hit
25:37
for the team, and they've done that by drafting me. But
25:39
you have to go in there and really just be genuine
25:42
and the way that I was raised, the structure and the environment
25:44
I credit that to just my
25:47
upbringing and then even going to Alabama
25:49
learning how to be tight
25:51
with people. Coach Saban did a great job of just teaching
25:54
us camaraderie, knowing that it
25:56
takes everybody in order for the team to be successful.
25:59
So when I go into the organization, the.
26:00
First thing I want to do is kind of impress
26:02
everybody by just knowing everybody's name in the organization,
26:05
knowing the cafeteria lady, knowing the janitor,
26:08
things like that, just things that have value and have
26:10
meaning, and just try to show that I'm not
26:12
only here to play football, man, I'm here to build relationships
26:15
and I want to be here for a long time.
26:18
What a great answer.
26:19
I mean, we already love you, man, Like we're one question
26:21
in, We're like, draft this guy, so we get end it right
26:24
now.
26:24
Draft them. Don't even think about anything else. But
26:26
let me let me ask you something.
26:27
You have this real cool confidence
26:30
about you, and you have to as a corner you
26:32
get into the league. I know you're at Bama,
26:34
I know you played the best. You go out
26:36
out there, you're playing the corner. It's the first drive of
26:38
the game and you look up and right across from your Tyreek
26:41
Hill like different deal. How are you going
26:43
to handle that NFL talent coming at you?
26:45
Oh man? Right now?
26:47
I mean after I get out the show with 'all, I'm
26:49
going to work out and just honestly just
26:51
out working everybody. I
26:54
like a model myself after like the Kobe Bryant
26:56
to Michael Jordan's and just kind
26:59
of just making myself great. Like Kobe,
27:01
he always talked about how he didn't
27:03
have at normal weakness. He didn't have the
27:05
speed that everybody had and the athletic gift
27:07
that everybody had, so he had to work for And
27:10
that's what I pride myself on. Me hard work has
27:12
gotten me here, and growing
27:14
up they called me the working man. So guys like Tyreek
27:16
Hill, DK Metcalf, jamar Ches,
27:19
you get excited for matchups like that, but you even start
27:21
preparing for him now. Like sitting in my room,
27:23
I like to tell people I watched TV, but I don't
27:26
really.
27:26
Watch it like that.
27:27
So I was just going back looking at some game field and
27:29
I wasn't watching Tyreek Hill, but I was watching DK
27:31
Metcalf, him and the Joey Porter matchup.
27:33
So I'm just sitting back there looking I'm like dang man,
27:36
I got a guard this guy next year, whether
27:38
I get drafted to the Seahawks or whether we had to play
27:40
against the Seahawks, I'll have to see him.
27:43
So I just already get my mind mentally prepared
27:45
for things like that, and already just preparing
27:47
my body for the tough challenges
27:50
up that's up ahead.
27:53
Man, preparation is key in the NFL.
27:56
Just like Jason, I played for a long time. But
27:58
when I went back and I was watching the bam
28:00
of film you and kool A McKinstry,
28:03
what I love was you just complete
28:05
football players. Show up in the run game, you understand
28:08
rock combinations, all these different things
28:10
watching a film like Man, these two dudes
28:12
are.
28:12
Well taught football players.
28:14
Can you just talk about how you guys have made each
28:16
other better by your relationship?
28:19
Well, number one, we
28:22
kind of addressed it to the media. We
28:24
understand each other and we really have a true
28:26
love for each other. That's my brother.
28:28
I've shedded blood, sweating
28:30
tears with that guy.
28:31
So just coming in and having a peer that
28:33
you know, that you know wants to be great
28:36
and uphold the standard, it makes you better.
28:38
Kul Aid being on the right side, if
28:40
he made a play or if he did something, I would feel
28:43
like, oh, man, okay, this kind of this kind
28:45
of how it's going to go. They're going to come at me so
28:47
and vice versa. So just being there
28:50
and being able to be in that same atmosphere with him.
28:52
I mean, like I said, our secondary last
28:54
year, I feel like, man, that would go down
28:56
as one of the greatest secondaries. I mean we had Halo
28:59
downs, Malachy Moore, Jalen Key, kool
29:01
Aid, myself. I mean, we had
29:03
a lot of talent, and then that
29:05
even just goes to the cornerback room that we
29:07
had two years ago. That's what really made kool
29:10
Aid and myself who we are. Like Hyre
29:12
Jackson, who's the top draft prospect, Eli
29:15
Rix was already in the NFL, and then
29:17
myself, kool Aid and Brian Branch at
29:19
cornerback. I mean, that's a competition every day and
29:22
it motivated us. It made us get closer,
29:25
and not only that, it's just propelling us to what
29:27
we have ahead of us. Like I tell everybody,
29:29
Man, kool Aid is my brother. I love the guy,
29:31
and we really really made each other better.
29:35
I love this. I feel like you are wise beyond
29:37
your ears. You're like an old soul. Feels
29:39
like you've been in the league already
29:41
for years for some reason. And you mentioned
29:44
that you called yourself or people call you
29:46
the working man. And I know that you spent
29:48
some time working on roofs at
29:51
your prepared big big roof
29:53
guy, So you compare roofing
29:56
to football a little bit.
29:57
I just want to know what some of those similarities are.
30:01
I told a story at the Kamma like rufor has
30:03
just allowed me to trust mysel so Number
30:05
one beat up there with my granddad in
30:07
the summers while everybody else was playing around.
30:10
It kept me disciplining and kind of kept me from
30:12
being a product of my environment.
30:13
I always say, Tallassi Tod, it's a hard place to
30:15
make it out of.
30:16
But it just kept me disciplined and kept my eyes on the prize.
30:19
The first thing that showed me is, hey, man, I
30:21
don't want to be no ruf for it. I mean grant Dad,
30:23
but I didn't want to be there. I
30:26
had other plans so going back
30:28
to football. Just being in the heat Fall
30:31
camp it was fun for
30:34
me because I was like, man, doing this is way
30:36
better than to be on the roof.
30:37
I mean, I got a helmelet to protect my face.
30:39
I don't have to worry about falling hurting myself,
30:42
but just going there, like I
30:44
tell people, man, Rufin just allowed
30:47
me to trust myself because the fiberglass
30:49
on the roof. If you slipped and you fall, no
30:51
one's coming to save you. They were playing
30:53
cornerback. When you're out there on that island, single
30:56
coverage, man, it's you. Will never receive it one
30:58
on one of the heat scores. Like I always say,
31:00
it's God the end zone and it's you. So
31:03
I mean, it just allows you to have My
31:05
confidence comes from.
31:08
I love that, especially you get on certain teams
31:10
and you have safeties. Like my brother said,
31:12
next to you, who the only worried about themselves? You're out
31:14
there on the eyeland. You don't have that help from
31:16
guys like that. You know, the feeling safety
31:19
getting out of the screen making it look like it's all
31:21
the corner. But I got to ask you because
31:23
a Bama became a big thing with her Rhys
31:25
Davis on ESPN the phrase a
31:28
link and let all nay sayers know break
31:30
this down.
31:31
For us because it went viral. Everybody was talking about
31:33
it. What does it mean? Where does it come from? For
31:35
you guys?
31:37
Jayal Mirro and myself while we were in the locker
31:39
room and uh, Jamison
31:42
Williams and John Metchit they had just came up with
31:44
the whole crane movement like that. So we
31:46
were like, man, what's the movement that we can start that not only
31:48
will impact the football team, but impact
31:51
Alabama. So then we
31:53
were like Coach Savan always said
31:55
something about nay fairs like anytime he addressed
31:58
the team.
31:58
It was then they don't want us to do this, the
32:01
Nate they don't want us to do that. So we're like, what
32:03
can we take from that? And I kid
32:05
you not. It was almost like in a movie. Jamil
32:08
looked at me said, sometimes you just got to let him know. I'm
32:10
like Lank. He
32:13
like, huh, like re
32:15
and that in it. He was really putting on his jersey. He looked
32:18
back at me like.
32:19
Huh, And I was like, bro
32:21
like Lank.
32:22
And then Jayleen he take it from there.
32:24
He was like, let a
32:26
Nate say or no. So then that's what it
32:29
was.
32:29
At first, let a Nates there know, But then we
32:32
had to go to the media and stuff. Actually it was. It was
32:34
his parents who came up with it. Shout
32:36
out to Jmail or dad and his mom. They were like, hey,
32:39
man, why would you let Nates there? No, you
32:41
need to let all Nates Sayers know. You need to let
32:43
everybody know. So then that's how
32:45
we came up with it. And then when
32:48
we had the game versus Texas, we kind
32:50
of watched everybody's turn on us. They were like, man, the dynasty
32:52
is over. I told y'all Alabama was a ten to two team.
32:55
They don't have what it takes. And then Jamil
32:57
he got benched. We went in the USF
33:00
just the whole testament to his character and stuff.
33:02
After gett a bench, we called a player on meeting
33:05
and guys like myself, Dallas Perner, kool
33:07
Aid, J mil we got
33:09
JC Latham too. We all got up there and we were
33:11
like, hey man, how do y'all want to be remembered?
33:14
You know, we don't want to go down and savings only class,
33:16
not to win a ring. Ultimately we ended up
33:18
coming up short still, but just bringing
33:21
the team together, and that goes back to what I said
33:23
about camaraderie and stuff and just learning how to understand
33:25
people. I looked at my teammates and I was like, how
33:28
can we go out here and play for each other
33:30
if we don't even know each other like that? So then
33:32
we start to learn different things about
33:34
each other. Like I could go and talk to Kleber and be like, hey,
33:36
man, your dad Gary's sitting in the stands.
33:39
Man, we can't have that. He's watching.
33:41
Just things that motivate people, things
33:43
that understand people, instead of just yelling at somebody,
33:45
Like the worst thing you can do as a player is
33:48
going yell at somebody when they know they're in the wrong,
33:50
Like, Man, I know I messed up. I know
33:52
I got bombed in front of one hundred thousand people millions
33:55
watching on TV. I don't need you to chest size
33:57
me on the sideline. So I always proud of myself as never
33:59
being that guy, the type of person just to go and
34:01
say, hey man, I know your mom is watching.
34:03
Man, it's okay, you got the next player. It's
34:05
all right, I got your bat.
34:06
When you reassure people like that, it makes them
34:08
want to go out there and play harder.
34:12
Absolutely love which other team gets you. They're
34:14
getting an absolute gen man. Good luck in the
34:16
upcoming drive. We can't wait to see out there on the
34:18
sidelines there
34:20
Thank you guy.
