Summary
EP #18: A busy news day on the latest Off the Edge with Cam Jordan podcast. Cam reacts to news of the Saints firing offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael plus two other offensive coaches. He also salutes Eagles center Jason Kelce who, reportedly, has told teammates he will retire after 13 NFL seasons. Cam is then joined by his teammate, linebacker Demario Davis. Cam gives Demario his flowers for making the All-Pro team for the fifth time in his career. Demario shares how he’s still training as if he’ll play in the Super Bowl even though the Saints season is over. He also delves into his fandom of LeBron James, and how he uses James as motivation for why he plans to play another four to five years. Demario reflects on his transformation from being burned out and on the brink of retirement at 27 to becoming a perineal All-Pro in his thirties. And, even though he’s made a name for himself as an NFL star, Demario explains why his legacy will extend beyond the gridiron. Cam ends the show by picking his personal All-Pro defensive team.

| 0:27.6 | And I mean, once you're in the dance, anybody can get it as you saw this past weekend. |
| 0:31.9 | Of course, then I'm bringing my guy, my dog, you know, man of God, the hero, the leader, the linebacker, the all pro |

| 0:48.7 | Let's start this off. I mean, I wake up this morning and I sort of scroll through the Twitter feed, you know, |
| 0:56.2 | just picking up news. I'm not sure why. Like I guess, you know, my dad's age, they had newspapers. I'm going through the Twitter feed. Like, all right, what's pertinent for me? You know, the Saints that was going on with AK, that's going on with D.C. Derek Carr, what's going on, you know, with the DA, Dennis Allen, |

| 1:27.1 | That's tough to see somebody go. I know there was a |
| 1:30.6 | lot of shade thrown Pete's way over the last year or two about being more aggressive with the play |
| 1:35.1 | calls, but he was a mad scientist. You know, when his plays worked, there was a reason why. Him and |
| 1:39.7 | Sean Payton made a lot of special moments happen over the years. There was times where it just |
| 1:43.9 | seemed like everything was clicking. And the last couple of years, things haven't been clicking. Three |
