Summary

In this week's episode, Peter King talks to new Denver head coach Vance Joseph, former quarterback and MVP Rich Gannon and former Green Bay linebacker A.J. Hawk. Joseph explains why he thinks he's ready to be a NFL head coach after just one year as a coordinator and he reveals what he said to John Elway to get the job. Joseph also talks about what Wade Phillips taught him about coaching that he'll never forget. Gannon discusses what makes Aaron Rodgers great and why he yelled "wow" while watching the Green Bay-Dallas playoff game. He also talks about the surprising two elements of a quarterback's game that he thinks are biggest triggers for success. Hawk looks back on his career and remembers who he sat next to in team meetings in Green Bay for nine years. Hawk also explains why he wishes he would have taken notes on Aaron Rodgers from his Packer days. Hawk has never had a documented concussion on any level of football, and he discusses what that portends for his future.
