No, no. And then I remember getting off the plane Tuesday night thinking, I got to get to work, man. And I've been so, I've been pitching bonus so much. I might get fired. You know, Wednesday mornings when you get fired, right? And so I ran down to that day thinking, please don't fire me. Please don't fire me. I feel like I've got a new lease on life.
And you talk about that's 1991, and that's towards the end of the season. In 1992, I'm the MVP of the league. I only say that because Steve Covey gave the perspective, you know, shifted my axis to see that I wasn't in a big pit of neglect and victimization. Like, stop. Stop. Yeah. And so I, I'm, I owe him a great debt. I didn't mean to talk about all this today, but no, that's really cool.
Everything. It changed. And when I said I ran up to Troy, when I ran up to him, said that to him, like, that's what I was. I'm about it.
You're, if you're a great, I'm about playing you, man. Cause I got to find out. Yeah. Cause I got to figure out. And, and, and, I remember Mike Shannon came in in 1992 as a new offensive coordinator for the 49ers. And I remember talking to him about this at length. And he's like, man, that's inspiring. Let's be about it. Like he went all in.
And so we just, the two of us, for three years until he freaking committed treason and left for the Broncos, the three years we were together, I mean, I put it up against anything, anywhere, anytime.
We were thinking about it. Was it close? He was all in. He was all in. And I just, I don't know. I, my wife says that's one of the things I, you know, cause we were newly married at the time and she regrets not like pushing me harder to do it. I was, I was kind of emotionally cooked in some ways. Like you get towards the end, you're like, ah, what am I doing? And I, and I just need, I,
I should have jumped in. I would have played 2000 to maybe two or three years. 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 would have been the years I played in Denver if I would have done it.
Do you think you would have won another Super Bowl? Why not? Let's go.
I mean, those are good teams. Mike and I, I mean, the two of us, I mean, if history was anything like we had before – It was good stuff.
92 championship game.
Brett Favre losses were different because the championship game we played in Green Bay, my rib was out and I only played like three plays. So I don't worry. That was that one. And then the loss at home in 95, we just couldn't run the football. Like we just, you know, they, we had Gilbert and Reggie white for our line was super hard.
Like it was just, it wasn't as, I don't know why it wasn't as painful. It was more, it felt more competitive. When I think about the 92 championship game, I throw up in my mouth. Like I really struggle with that one. That was a total screw up. And, The regret I have about that game is heavy.
You really have to?
criticizing Joe Burrow for doing an interview tipsy uh we were the ones who did the interview with him and we were the drunk guys no no I think I think you're remembering a little bit off you've spoken cigar at LSU and I regret I actually regret that interview for me like what I was like, what, are the kids going to start smoking cigars? Like, stop, Steve. Relax.
hammered i went home i guarantee i have this pti that i was having fun with it because it was funny to me like i think i enjoyed the fact that i was watching you guys and going what the hell are we doing yeah it was i mean it was i mean it was like a thrill of a lifetime we got to interview the national champion uh heisman how come how come
Hammered, you got to interview a guy right after the national championship.
I miss my PTA times because it was – Those guys are great questions, and it's always fun. So, yeah, I'm sure they were laughing about you guys.
Yeah, because we were like, you're about to leave LSU, so it doesn't really matter now. That was real money, right? Yeah, I got plenty of money, too, in my pocket. Yeah. You guys took down a lot in one minute. Nice job.
on a slide you're likely to bounce your head it puts your head on a pedestal right at the level of people's knees and and and and like you basically are saying and and you and by sliding you're opening yourself up right it's like oh hit me in the face yeah that's what the slide and i think the slide the game look the game changed when they changed the rules it's now a canadian size field uh
essentially is what we've done is we've expanded the space because defenders can't launch their bodies. The space that's come in the last six or seven years that's put the prototype is now, like, it's my game. I'm, you know, all the people tell me you scramble, you're weird, you're odd. Now I'm like... this is my mainstream. Yeah.
