Junior Seau was on my blind side, and we were running a play action to my right in the L.A.

Coliseum.

I've got a backup left tackle in the game.

And Junior Seau, at this point, I think he had three sacks in the game.

And...

All I could think about, it was on color, so it was down, blue.

So I said down, blue.

And I started to take the snap, and out of the corner of my eye, I could see my left tackle still in his stance.

And I had to turn my back and carry out a fake, knowing that my left tackle, who had no chance to block him to begin with,

was still in his stance, and I'm thinking, is he going to spear me in the back?

How bad is this going to hurt?

And by the time I got to the top of the fake, I was ear-holding down.

At USC, number 55, he used to just kind of do like, I am that guy kind of thing, and I'm looking up at that.

But I never had the ability to...

to look at two and three and four.

That's why I can really relate to it so well.

And to hear Steve Young say, because I think Steve Young, if you put him in this era.

Oh, my gosh.

Just ask Steve Young.

I mean, honestly, he just missed his era.
