Yeah, I'm happy for Sam too, given all the things that he's gone through in his career and now

to be anointed the NFC champion and play just an absolutely fabulous game.

I mean, he and Matthew Stafford went back and forth.

I was hoping that Matthew Stafford was going to score late in the game to see if Sam could

bring his team back and win it that way, which would have been even more impressive.

But that Clint Kubiak, the offensive coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks, how he doesn't become the Raiders head coach, I would be shocked. I mean, Tom Brady's sitting here doing the whole game, and he's talking about the offense of the Seattle Seahawks, and he's gushing over Clint Kubiak. Sure. And, you know, we all know what Tom Brady does in the other part of his life.

He actually owns part of the Raiders and his buddy is the general manager.

So I would think that, man, watching what Sam Donald has done with him as his

offensive coordinator and Sam as quarterback, you would think that that would be the perfect spot for him.

But I was just, you know, Sam never really came close to throwing an interception yesterday.

You know, like he, he played solid. He played great. I mean, the numbers are off the charts.

He played his best game ever, I think, as a professional football player, at least, in the biggest moment. And that's really a crowning achievement for, at least through my eyes. Yeah, and he got another opportunity, and that's the biggest thing, is he, last year in those two games, it had lingered around him, how great of a year he had, and then it was all of a sudden, well, he turned back into Sam Darnold, and the Seattle Seahawks were said, hey, we saw a lot from him. Clint

Kubiak said, this guy is going to be, along with Mike McDonald, our starting quarterback,

and not only did he recreate the great season he had last year, he made it even better,

and then he gets the same opportunities as he had last year,

and then this year wins those games and then gets an opportunity to play in the divisional

round, in the NFC championship game, and now gets a chance to play in the Super Bowl. It really is

an incredible story. And you think about all the great quarterbacks that have dominated the

NFC and AFC, especially the AFC over the years.

And now you got two guys, you know, one who was left for dead in the NFL and the

quarterback blender who has gotten his team, the Seahawks of the Super Bowl, and another guy

who was drafted just a couple of years ago in his second season taking the New England Patriots who felt like they were away for 10 minutes back to the Super Bowl.
