My team and his team.
They hate each other, but I do not hate him at all.
I’m so happy they decide to be here on behalf of Old Spice.
We got my guy Cam Jordan.
Thanks for joining the show.
My brother Lord.
That’s the intro.
I appreciate that.
I have a lot of experience with playing against Sean Payton, preparing for Sean Payton and having so much respect for what he’s done and what he was Dennis, he been a de coordinator for a long time, but it’s different when you’re a coordinator going into a head coach.
What is some of the differences you’ve seen or just kind of playing for one versus playing for the other or similarities that you’ve seen?
The similarities would be the calm demeanor, demeanor that they have Monday through Saturday D A is just consistent like these are the emphasis, these are focal points.
This we’re gonna drill home and even on game day D A is consistent as they come, Sean is Monday through Saturday even kill and on Sunday kill switch, I don’t even know if he remembers what he’ll say or do during, during a game time.
And after then, he’s back to Sean Payton going from a rookie into a pro bowl all pro player now to a leader and a vet on a team.
What has been your mindset?
And what is the team’s mindset currently?
And, uh, how’s that had to change as you’ve been through different uh waves as far as what the Saints have been through in your career.
It’s like when you were a kid and you’re like, you know, 1011 years old and you was out there playing football with your friends and you look around and you come into class and you’re like, you funky and you’re like, oh bo, that’s, that’s where you got to start using deodorant.
And also shout out to old spice.
You literally like, oh, this is something I gotta adapt to my body’s changing.
Going from a rookie to a vet, a vet to a super vet seeing as much success as an NFC championship game to losing five games in a row for the first time in my professional career.
You sit there and like, all right, I have to adapt.
I have to change.
What, what can we do to get back to a winning situation?
Tell us why you’re here.
Tell us about old spice.
Give it to us, man.
What you got top of the head to the feet, you can use it, you can use it in any crevice is what I’m told.
Get you feeling good when you feel good, you feel fresh when you feel fresh, you can play good.
Yeah, I love it, man.
Hey, I appreciate you coming on, man.
I appreciate you represent everything that you represent as a husband, family, man, as a pro.
I love you, bro.
Always my guy.
