You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Oh, here we go. It is a Wednesday. We are live in Los Angeles. It's the Hurt wherever you may be and however you may be listening. Thanks for making us part of your day. Finally got a good night's sleep, raring to go. So yesterday on the show, a little craziness happened and I slept on it. Anthony Edwards had a dunk against Utah. Everybody went crazy. Everybody's talking about the next Michael Jordan. Comparisons comes to MJ and I slept on it, j Mac and I am here to defend MJ.

Hold on, hold on, I thought I told you to stay off Twitter. Don't forget about what those clowns are saying about Michael Jordan's.

All right, So I want to start here. First of all, Anthony Edwards, Minnesota terrific player. Highly uh vertical UH dunk machine had a big dunk over the weekend, and all of a sudden, everybody's like MJ, MJ, MJ. Chris Bruce Sard actually Big Jay Journalism reached out to Michael Jordan.

He's not going to ever be in the goat conversation, as great as he will be, He's not gonna be in the goat conversation. But stylistically, well, I reached out to the goat today Michael Jordan, and Jordan said there are similarities in their games. He agreed, so Jordan said, there's similarities, their similarities.

I love Brew.

I've seen a lot of jump man in my life. There has been only one jump man, MJ. Michael Jordan had what ninety nine percent of great dunkers don't have. Grace like he was born to fly. He hung in the air, he was smooth, he was fluid. And America doesn't fall in love with dunkers. They absolutely fell in love with Michael. Michael made you feel a certain way. The way he smiled, the way he walked, the swagger, the confidence, the way he dressed. He was forceful, powerful, graceful, He was cool. Anthony Edwards Zion, Blake Griffin, Dominique, Wilkins. It's a lot of verticality and power, but there's not a lot of layers to it. It's like comparing The Rock and Christian Bale as actors. They're both successful and rich. One is an artist, and that's Michael. There's a reason America fell in love with him. His greatest moments usually came in the biggest spots, as if he had so much more in the tank but was saving the big stuff for us. That's the way Michael did it. In baseball, there's nobody close, although Jeter had some of the same similarities, and so did Brady. Michael Jordan's not about just six for six. It's the commercials. It's the shoes. In fact, when Ben Affleck and Matt Damon made the Air movie, they didn't even try to find a Michael. They rarely showed the back of him in the movie. You could create a Sonny Vacero, you could create a Phil Knight. Michael is one of one the commercials, the smile, the grace. Nothing against Zion, Dominique, lot of power, but Michael Jordan's the coolest guy in a room. If he didn't play basketball. The other cat aren't the coolest guy in the room among great basketball players. There are ten year old kids in America today that never saw Michael play, and they will wait in line for hours to wear his shoes. Football teams wear his shoes. He starred in an age of pre social media, so there was mystery and mystique to Michael. The stories about him are like Greek mythology. They're fables. When does the truth begin or end? Guys now put their lunch.

On X and IG. Nobody cares.

Michael didn't give us everything. He kept a lot to himself, a lot of his struggles. There were moments he got emotional and asked the camera to stop during the documentary. He didn't want us to see him at his weakest spot. People used to be like that. Politicians, presidents, and Michael Jordan the Edwards is terrific, a fun player, but the discussions or comps to Michael Jordan will begin when the college football national champions are wearing his logo.

Never be another Michael.

Basketball players are entertainers. Michael was a million things beyond that. So the documentary The Dynasty is over, and great sports documentaries and this was a great.

One have three things.

Hype before you see it, the discussion while you're watching it, and the deconstruction of it, and criticism when it ends. So as the Dynasty ends, former Patriots now Rodney Harrison, Devin mccordy happy, how Belichick and the Dynasty was portrayed.

It didn't tell the stories like of me come in and Corey Dillon and you know, it was just it was centered around some things that I wasn't really feeling, and I just stopped watching. I interviewed for five or six hours.

I was in New York, and all they had me saying was bomb.

I felt like I got kind of duked because I was just like you. I did like.

Four or five hours in New York, and then I did another like two or three hours in Massachusetts.

And I was like, man, this is gonna be great.

Like the storyteller, we're talking about this, and we're talking about.

That everything that we all gave to the twenty years that it encompassed, they only hit anything that was negative.

Read the book by Jeff Benedict. The Dynasty books go deeper. Read them. Documentaries have limited There's a lot of stories in the MJ doc that weren't told.

Scottie Pippen wasn't happy.

Maybe Isaiah's not happy, Gary Payton, if everybody's happy. After a doc it disappears into the ether like ninety eight percent of documentaries, but the great ones are talked about before it, during it, and deconstructed after. Just think about what this dynasty was, twenty years of a sports empire. Say it out loud. You had two gates spy and deflate. You had a tight end that apparently was a serial killer. You had a six round quarterback becoming the greatest player in the history of the sport. You had a top defender for years not being allowed to play in a Super Bowl. And to this day, nobody knows why Brady lost a super Bowl. In the game he played his very best Philadelphia. He won a Super Bowl in which he played his worst super Bowl the Rams. He won super Bowls close and then lost once because of ball stuck to David Tyree's helmet. The owner and the head coach, we found out during the book and the dynasty, by about year four and five didn't really care for each other. And oh yeah, it ended with a thud. Brady left won big and Belichick crumbled when you add the pressure and the popularity. The NFL is America's number one TV show, and there is no number two. Winston Churchill had a great line and you can apply it here. History is written by the victors. Brady won the divorce, Robert Kraft got the house. This is their story, not bills. And the deconstruction of documentaries is what happened when they matter, and this one does. And again, read the book The Dynasty. Jeff Benedict goes much deeper on a variety of topics. I know, I know, you're not supposed to say, like the book better than the movie, but sometimes, like the firm. It's true, all right, j Mac, I will not have Michael Jordan's slandered on national cable television.

Oh my gosh, I mean, what guy played like what thirty years ago? I forgot about the Wizard's failure at the end of his career. Oh geez.

Marlon Brando had a couple of bad stinkers, is it takeaway?

Well, I mean did nothing for the first six years of his career except put up a lot of points in losing the playoffs. So we don't talk about that, only talk about six and zero, Like, come on.

He did lose to the Pistons dynasty and the Celtics dynasty.

He had to misfortunate and when.

Those dynasties crumbled and nothing was left, that's when he took over Expansion era nineties. Like, I get it, he was amazing, But I do love how rich is that?

Brussard?

Hey, what about Anthony Edwards?

Did you see it?

Gosh that your jump over John Collins the world stops?

That was not that was a murder. I mean they put crime scene tape around the paint for the rest of the game.

I don't know if you saw it.

I love how you've reduced Michael Jordan's greatness to the Expansion era nineties.

Well it was, I mean, you could find the quote, but the Hayes giography is just a bit much. It's like, do we forget when he came back from baseball he was locked up by Donald Royal of the Orlando Magic and they lost that series.

But then it's like, oh, Jordan only.

Played twenty five games, it doesn't count. Like it's just a bit much, you know. Well, sounds like the wife is wearing you doubt and like, hey, can you do this?

Can you do that.

It's like, can you back? Can I have him in it?

Can I breathe?

Can I just chill out? That appears to be an interesting bridge. You'll probably pay for that when you get home. Yeah, Hey, Donald Royle never got the respect he saw Richard deserved.

Hey, those nineties Magic were nice.

Heynny Matt Liner showing up this hour USC Pro Day, Caleb Williams throwing.

Hey, by the way, Matt Liner, it is my buddy. He works out at my gym. You know, he just got double hip replacement, both of his hips replaced. Tried to get him to hoop with us, and he's just like, I'm on the shelf for a minute.

Well, he's at pro Day today, Caleb Williams the number one pick. You know, it wasn't long ago we didn't think Chicago was a good landing spot. But as we talked about to lead yesterday's show, new information, Chicago's got a new back, a new tight end, a star wide receiver.

Very interesting.

Yesterday we were the Chicago Bears show. Today were the USC You got the pop pops over there?

Hey, Lo, Michael Day. I've said before Lebron does more things great than Michael, but Lebron doesn't have the cool factor and doesn make me feel something.

Doesn't have the cool face.

Well, I don't think. I don't think Michael. I think there's players that have it, like Steph Curry's got some of a cool factor of the way he shakes and moves. Lebron's just great. Michael made you feel a certain way. Lebron doesn't make me feel anything. I'm just in awe of his talent, his greatness, and his longevity. I can look at him and go what. I can look at some things and go, what a business?

What a movie? But not all.

Movies, even great ones, make me feel something. The great movies, literally you sit in the theater and you talk about it.

Oppenheimer is a movie.

I sat in the theater for ten minutes and thought about what it means in society. That's a real movie. A lot of movies are just fun and entertaining, even great movies. I've gone to movies and I'm like, that's a great I watched another movie that made me sit in the theater was Platoon William Dafoe, Charlie Sheen. That movie made me sit in the theater and think a lot about family and friendship and life and sacrifice. Not all great movies make you think. Not all great athletes make me feel something. Michael, more than any any did Top Gun two with tomoers All Top Guns make me feel I WoT the theater.

I was like on class. That was amazing, you know, telling everybody like silly, texting my family members, You've gotta see this. That's how I feel about Lebron though I think Lebron, You're not there, huh.

I'm just he's great. He doesn't make me feel anything. You were of his town.

You were in your feelings in your twenties and thirties, No, I was.

I was.

I was into a lot of things. Feelings wasn't one of them. Six success is more than a desk that I had to stop you in your tracks on that wall. It was not into my feelings in my twenties. It took a lot of therapy to get there.

We get tons and tons of fan mail every day.

Piles of it.

In fact, Tony, why don't you open up one of those letters right now and read what's inside?

Hey, listen to this. Dear Paulie and Tony, your sports takes the dumbest and most terribly not that.

Wait, why open this other one?

Dear Pauli in Toni you suck more than anyone.

Wait, try this one.

Dear Paulie and Tony, you guys are the absolute best. There you go, coming up with the stupidest take to get it.

And Tony Fusco show on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

Ye, there is a term out there used in the culinary business. Find out where the chef eats. They know, they know the good places. Many of you believe I have the Minnesota Vikings as a top ten team and the surprise team in the NFL next year because Sam Donald is their quarterback. That's not entirely it. It's a small part of it. Minnesota's got I think, the smartest young coach in football that you don't talk about, Kevin O'Connell, the best receiver and Justin Jefferson a top two or three left tackle, running back, tight end, O line, number two receiver, number three receiver. They are completely stacked. And yes, I do believe Sam Donald can win games and find a way, if healthy, to engineer a possible wild card spot. Find out where the chef eats. What do I mean by that? Sean McVay loved Matt Stafford. Fans were cool on him because he was seventy four ninety and one. He was a losing quarterback. Sean McVay really liked Baker Mayfield. A year and a half later, he signed a massive contract. McVeigh knows where the good ones are. Kevin O'Connell, Sean McVay, Kyle Shanahan all really really like Kirk Cousins. Raheem Morris gets the Atlanta job, leans on his offensive friends, and gets Kirk Cousins because Raheem knows they know. Find out where the chef eats. Brian Flores is a defensive coach. He couldn't stand to a Mike mca daniels, an offensive coach. He really liked him to well. Last year led the NFL in passing yards. Flores didn't think he could play. I'm not interested really in Pete Carroll, Sean McDermott, Brian Flores, Mike Tomlin's insight on o line or quarterback play. They know the other side. Belichick doesn't know offense. Battled with Brady when it comes to quarterback play. Sam Darnald, Shanahan likes him, Kevin O'Connell likes him, and a lot of smart people I know in the league on the offensive side. I didn't say love him like Sam Darnold. They feel the same way they did about Baker Mayfield. You're not gonna pay him massive, game changing five year franchise Patrick Mahomes money, not Lamar Jackson money, not Matt Stafford money. But Donald can play. According to the people who know offense find out where the chef's eat. I try to get my information from people who are experts and have access to the right side of any industry. And the guys that I trust, the mcveigh's, the shanahan, the Kevin o'connells. They like Sam, don't love him. Releases a bit slow, can at times as a high school linebacker, be a tad reckless, but they like him, and that's why I like Minnesota because I like Sam, I love the coach, the receiver, they'll left tackle, they're running back the O line, they tight end the number two receiver, And I like still Sam Darnold. Never forget McVeigh loves Stafford. You guys all banged on him. He was seventy four to ninety one. Guy doesn't win games. I'm gonna go with Sean over reddit board guy.

It's interesting how people frame and Lebron James knows his basketball how people frame Steph Curry. Is that his influence? Trump's his greatness? Here's Lebron talking about Iverson and Steph Curry.

Steph and Allen Iverson are the two biggest influential guys in our game since since I've been watching and covering it. Alan Iverson and Steph they were just so relatable and kids felt like they could be them. They were guys that was not always counted on. They were small and stature, and they just defined odds.

But it's interesting Steph is best in the world at doing the most important thing in basketball shooting. I also think he's the best ball handler I've ever seen, also controls tempo, and he's been mostly talked about his influence, not his greatness. I think he's a top twelve player ever and the most influential ever. Absolutely the most influential top twelve player ever. But it's interesting how his greatness is reduced. Now think about this. Magic Johnson did not eliminate centers. Magic needed a center. Lebron has struggled at times with centers at the rim. Steph killed back to back centers. He's the medior that ended the dinosaurs. Steph came into the league, Dwight Howard's career was flourishing, and then an hour later he was irrelevant. Like Michael was good with centers. Magic needed centers. Lebron has struggled at times at the rim against centers. Steph ended him. He was the media and it's always funny to me how we frame him. He's the best shooter in the world, has changed the way basketball is. I'm not in any way denying his influence. Most influential. He changed high school, college, maybe not high school, but AAU college, Pro basketball, G League, International basketball, where players shoot from. But we don't talk much just about his pure greatness. And you know, the back to the Basket Center, Michael didn't end it, Magic needed it, Lebron didn't end it.

Steph did.

And and I have no issue saying he's a top twelve player ever, not just because of his influence, but because of his style and because of his ability to score. And he's still I think all times scoring he's only thirtieth, and I you know he'll end up somewhere in the twenties because he's still can dominate games. And you know, we saw him dominate a finals a couple of years ago against the Celtics. But I've always found it interesting now he's kind of lumped in with Iverson. Iverson did have a ton of influence, and I would argue Iverson his influence was significantly better than his game.

And I liked Allan Iverson's game.

But his street credibility, his influence was magnificent and substantial. Steph's is gigantic.

Two.

I think he's the most influential player, but I sometimes I don't think we understand how great he is. Years ago they asked players for Westbrook.

It was fifty to.

Fifty nothing against Westbrook. He'll be a Hall of Famer. Blaze a guard with pretty poor handles who can't shoot. Steph's got the best handles maybe ever, and it is the greatest shooter ever. So it's very rare when you're great and underrated, And I sort of feel that, Like when I watched The Dynasty, I thought Brady was actually underrated. If Patrick Mahomes would have gotten a defensive coach that constantly let go of star players around him because they wouldn't take the sacrifice of less money, and then battled his head coach for much of the Dynasty the second half, like Andy Reid, great drafting, top defensive coordinator, best tight end, like they moved off Tyreek Hill clearly, and that's a sacrifice. But it is interesting to watch what Brady went through with Belichick. This is constant haranguing. I mean like drafting quarterback quarterback after quarterback, Jimmy Roppolo second round, third round. It was like Brady at times was battling his head coach. Now he also benefited from Bill. They don't beat the La Rams without Belichick's game plan. Tom didn't play particularly well, but I think when you watch what Brady went through, constantly sacrificing the beat down by Belichick, especially in the last eight to ten years, You're like, I'm not sure everybody understands Brady's ability to compartmentalize that stuff. I mean, that stuff would not have worked with Aaron Rodger. Aaron Rodgers would have bailed on that thing ten years earlier.

Can I ask you about the word influential. Why do we talk about NBA players as influential, Magic and Larry Iverson Curry, the Fab five. We don't talk about NFL players as influencial.

Because basketball, like baseball, is very independently driven. Like I'm pitching your batting. It really comes down to those two players will dictate the outcome of games football, even the quarterback is on his offensive coordinator, his left tackle, the health of his offensive line. You can't win shootouts every week. By the way, this year, Mahomes does not win a Super Bowl without a great defense. Kevin Durant's gonna get his points regardless, Lebron's gonna get his points. MJ Coby gonna get their points. Your teammates matter. If it's just titles, but productivity, health, consistency doesn't depend largely on teammates. Titles do, yes, But I guess I.

Would say when Lebron and Reddick are talking about influential, I think they mean in like the larger culture scene, not less about like winning, but just everybody saw Steph Curry and felt like, geez, that guy's not that huge. He's a below the rim dude playing in a sport with giants, and he's dominating. And now you've got people just wanting to be Curry and trying to emulate him off the court. You see that same thing with Iverson. I just don't know that I see that with NFL players, Like who's influential to somebody?

Who's influential well culturally Travis Kelcey with the Taylor swift.

Okay because of his girlfriend, Justin Jefferson with the gritty No, maybe Odell Beckham with some swag.

Yeah, well, I think it's I think it's different. I think football is about a community and about a family and about a team. Basketball is about getting yours. It's very individual, and that's fine. I mean, Denver's obviously a great team, but they have the best player.

It's also why these NBA players have massive social media.

I mean Lebron's got more Instagram followers and the top ten NFL guys combined.

When do you guys come by?

Maybe top fifty guys. I've always compared NBA basketball to international soccer. Lebron is Ronaldo is that that guy international soccer envy is always going to get his. It doesn't mean Ronaldo or Messi You're gonna win a World Cup or Lebron's gonna win a title, but a star player will get his. If Mahomes had a bad coach and allows the offensive, I mean, we saw Mahomes with o line injuries in the Super Bowl. He got blown out. You are dependent on others, and Mahomes is not the same player without Andy Reid and the one Super Bowl where he didn't have help in the old line, he was mauled. Lebron every final he gets his.

We get there eight straight times like nobody's ever done.

That's just it else and often didn't even have great teammates.

Well I mean sorry not buying up with Miami and Wade and stuff, but to go from one team to another and get to the finals eighth three year, that's unbelievable.

Stuff be sure to catch live editions of The Herd weekdays and newon eastern nin am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio FS one and the iHeartRadio app.

Caleb now is getting miked up. I think it'll work if I said to you j Mac. Twenty seven touchdowns, thirteen picks, sixty three percent completion percentage. Let's go to Caleb Williams had his pro day and he's joining us now live and we appreciate that. By the way, ninety three touchdowns last couple of years. Let's start with this, how did you think your Pro day went, Caleb?

I think it went well.

I missed a few d balls, didn't give the wide receivers enough you know, air to adjust the ball and enough from for air as we say. And then I think I missed one to be Rice on the right side a little bit behind him, and I do one to Austin on the right side in the flat a little a little low.

So I think I did well, and you know it could be better.

I said in the last couple of weeks, I love Keenan Allen. I think DeAndre Swift is a great pass catching running back Gerald Everett to Pro and I said I'd look over the last two weeks, and I'm like, who whoa, whoa, whoa whoa. Wait a minute, Chicago's got dudes. You did you had Keenan Allen today, You work with Keenan today. How do you think that relationship will blossom?

Yeah, I think it'd be great if the you know, I was you know, blessed to be able to be a number one pick to the Chicago Bears.

But I've known Keenan for a year now.

I would say, uh, you know, before before he was not drafted but traded to the you know, to the Bears for a fourth round, and so it was it was pretty cool for him to come out here and and show love.

Now you had ninety three touchdowns last couple of years. This past year, the criticism has been, you know, Caleb kind of freelanced. To that. I would say, well, the old line protection wasn't great. When when you hear a criticism like you know, he does he freelances a bit, what would you say to somebody, Is it a fair criticism or was it more offensive line erosion?

I can do both.

Is there's what's your what's your favorite style to play? If I said you had a twelve play drive to win a game. What is your favorite style?

What do you don't like running? How about I don't like running unless I have to.

That's fair. You don't like running?

Yeah, I did not like running. You know it looks it may look like it, but I don't. I don't like running.

I like throwing the.

Bottom of my receivers, letting them, you know, letting all of us have fun. It's a lot more fun to be able to throw a twin yard dagger route to you know, my my, my ex receiver and and and let him eat up down the middle of field.

The Lincoln Riley obviously his quarterbacks have succeeded. For somebody that's inside the hubble. What do you think Lincoln provided you that maybe other college coaches wouldn't that he provided you with a head start going into the NFL.

Yeah, I think one the creativity.

I think two the ability, you know, once you earn his trust throughout his plays, I'm throughout practice, throughout film and things like that. The ability to check within you know, the offense and plays, whether it's run to pass, pass to run, you know, run to run.

Whatever the case may be.

And I think also another relationship is one of the biggest things. It's a big relational coach, and he adjustice to his his qbs all of us, all of us have been different heights, size, his weights, you know, just you know, the whole nine. So you know, his ability to adjust, and then just you know, him believing and providing confidence within you and trusting you because sometimes you know, middle of the field, we'll be having conversations that you know everybody doesn't understand through hand signals and body language, him and I and so just the you know, the relationship that we have is you know, it's unbeatable.

What have you improved most with day one at USC to today, Caleb? What is the one thing you're proud of in improvement?

The ability to adapt, whether it's a you know, you go into the season, you go into every season obviously.

You know things are gonna win at all, but.

You get you get a few players this last year and then you go seven and five. So the ability to adapt to you know, the adversity the year before, you know, being able to adapt to you know, a hamstring or you know, the year before being able to adapt to you know, uh, playing a bunch of tough games and you know, coming out with the win and and and just obviously you know, dealing with adversity that year, and then dealing with adversity my freshman year not starting then you know, Lincoln having to leave, staying and then coming here. So the ability to adapt to situations, and I think that's been the biggest thing.

The comp with Mahomes. What do you make of it?

Uh, I've said this multiple times. I just think of it as respect. Everybody gets crazy when you know I say that I, you know, there's things that he does physically. Obviously I'm not Patrick Mahomes and I'm not in his brain, but things that he does physically that I I you know, I don't think that I can't do.

So I just I call her respect.

And you know, hopefully as soon I'll be able to see him and go against them and and and have a you know, a good battle between him.

A friend of yours told me, he said, Caleb wants to go somewhere that cares. Chicago cares. They're loud, they got history. It's one of my it's my favorite city in the country. It's big, the architecture, the opinions, this food. What do you envision that first year being like Caleb Williams. You know, if you go to the Bear, like, what do you have? What's the vision in your mind what it'll be like?

Yeah, I think it's going to another big city.

I've heard that they love football.

So if that's the place, I'm excited for that the fans love football. It's one of the you know, biggest things that I care about is a place that cares. And so you know, if that was the place, I'd be excited and and and you know, get ready to whether it's the fans, the organization, my teammates, myself, caring about, caring about ball games and winning ball games is the most important thing.

You were the first nil star in college sports. You were the first. Do you think it was an advantage going into the NFL.

I do I think it.

I think it allows you to have eras, It allows you to you know, have good and bad moments within you know that that you know, this new era of college football. So I would say it is an advantage because you go into the NFL and you get you know, there's people that you know haven't seen whether it's you know, how much of her money and it is super low, uh, or it's a huge contract and you're the you know, first round pick. You don't There's a lot of people in the world that that come from situations that don't get a chance to experience something like that. So when you get money that you get in the NFL, if your first round of second round, whatever it case may be, second contract, that that people don't know how to deal with it. So just getting a little bit exposure, you know, through college, I think it's huge.

I think it's huge for all players.

And so I'm you know, I'm excited for the new stage, and and and and decided to come back and see the boys rumble.

Uh, we got a minute left. If I'd never see Brendan Rice play, I had him on the show Yesterday's such a good kid. If I'd never seen him play, and you were his agent and you were selling me, you were a scout, what would you tell me about him?

There you go, I'd say he's strong. I said that he cares.

Uh, he always wants the ball, so that's always gift from a wide receiver. He's fast, He's hit the fastest times on the team, one of the fastest times in the combine. You know, he wants to go score. Those are the most important things. And you know he's a good he's a good teammate. I mean he takes care of, you know, the guys around him when he can, and I think those are the most important things. Care about, you know, his teammates, and care about about winning games and being in best.

Caleb pro Day, congrats, appreciate you hurrying up over to our cameras and stopping by and we'll h wherever you land. Can't wait to watch you play.

Appreciate it, Coylin.

You bet.

Caleb Wiltrims USC work with Keenan Allen today.

Brendan Rice late second round.

He's saying all the right things. Did you hear that I don't want to run, I want to stay in the pocket. That's the big knock on in this past season was too much too again.

I watched every USC snap. The old line was not great and so he'd also didn't have a Jordan Adison like Brendan Rice came on very strongly this year, but Jordan Addison was always open and it was easier this year. You had some offensive line erosion. He didn't have a dominant one. Although I think Brennan Rice probably an early third round pick. Jordan Adison's the first round pick, and came was one of the first nil stars is along with Caleb If I'm.

A Bears fan and I just watched that interview, I am giddy.

I'm so excited.

He just sounds like in franchise quarterback, he's gonna wear his hat forwards on Wednesdays for you in front of the podium or whatever, and bears arrows pointing up for well.

He's a smart kid man. He's a franchise quarterback. All these nitpicking, He's a franchise quarterback.

He's a guy.

He's the guy. See tomor
