| 0:00.0 | I'm going to go get the biggest cheeseburger you've ever seen. |
| 0:07.0 | I'm the biggest one and might be a double. |
| 0:11.0 | I didn't really sleep last night, but I didn't spend it with a trophy. |
| 0:15.0 | Well, I did. I spent it with my trophy wife. |
| 0:18.0 | What was that? |
| 0:19.0 | BAM! |
| 0:20.0 | Well said, Andy Reid. Andy, you little devil you. That was clever. Very quick. Very clever. His wife is going to love him tonight. And he did not look tired for staying up all night. I was really impressed with how fresh he looked. Well, he's always kind of the same. He's always just kind of understated. So you can't even tell if he's tired or well slept. What would you have done if you won the Super Bowl? I definitely would have slept with the trophy. Like, without a doubt. Like, definitely. I'd have had it in the bed with me and my wife at least for some point. Now, I might roll over at one point and just put it on the night table next to me. So is that just a normal protocol? Like, whoever wins the trophy, if you're the head coach, you get to possess it for that entire night. Well, we've heard certain coaches do that. Like, I know Sean Payton said he slept with the trophy. I would. I just know that. Here's the weird thing. You's like you show the trophy during the game and the guy that is the trophy holder is wearing gloves. And so it's super important not to get any like fingerprints on the trophy. And then you say, but if Andy Reid wants to sleep with this in his bed, that's fine. Yeah. That seems like a departure from protocol. The guy holding the trophy's got the gloves, but it doesn't matter. Everybody else keeps grabbing it and kissing it. I would take the trophy back to my room. |
| 1:35.3 | I would take a shower with it and soap it down because a lot of dirty hands and mouths have been on that at that point. |
| 1:42.3 | I'm going to do that. I'm going to give it a scrub and then go, okay, now you're clean, Mr. Lombardi, come into the bed with me. There's some sharp edges on that thing, though. You know, you're over around. Yeah, you never know. You can't spoon with it. You never know what it'll happen. Spooning can be an issue. but we're back from Miami and it was an awesome football game. Super Bowl 54 in the books. |
| 2:04.3 | You had a long week. You never know what it'll happen. Spooning can be an issue. But we're back from Miami, and it was an awesome football game. |
| 2:02.7 | Super Bowl 54 in the books. |
| 2:04.4 | You had a long week, too, there. |
| 2:15.3 | I mean, I feel like you're always high energy. You're super high energy all the time. I was like, how do you get it? Because you work every day. You work like eight hours every day, it seems like. But even you for that whole week in Miami, you're coming back, |
| 2:16.2 | being like, wow, that was a long week. Yeah, I'm tired. |
| 2:17.0 | I'm tired today. |
| 2:17.8 | It was a long week. |
| 2:18.8 | And then, you know, you come home and I Yeah, I'm tired. I'm tired today. It was a long week. |
| 2:18.8 | And then, you know, you come home and I've got to be a dad and all that stuff too, had early mornings. But then last night, I just stay up too late. I stay up late after the game. And I end up watching the postgame press conferences and the highlights like three times in a row. And then the masked singer after that. |
| 2:32.3 | Oh, yeah, yeah, I was really tuned into that. |
| 2:33.9 | And then I end up going through the playlist, |
| 2:35.6 | just trying to think about certain situations and plays that jumped out to me. But that was the big thing. And the big thing is this, okay? You know, the best player on the field prevailed. That's really what I look at it. I mean, first, that would be my first thought. Patrick Mahomes is amazing. I don't think there's another quarterback in football that could have won that game against that defense. It was tough sledding all night. I don't think it was like necessarily a great game by Patrick by Patrick Mahomes. I think for his standards, it was like, eh, I've had better. But his, eh, I've had better is better than everybody else in football. And that's where he's become special to me. Like that really is. And it was not easy. I mean, the pass rush was good, as we saw. I mean, he couldn't extend plays and make magic like he did in the divisional and NFC championship game. Now, did he get outside the pocket and make a few plays? |
| 3:24.3 | Yes. |
