2:04Shannon Sharpe:Bad Bunny. Man, damn, I guess many people didn't boycott us. We thought on show Bad Bunny delivered the most watched Super Bowl halftime show at all time. The show drew 135 million viewers, surpassing Kendrick's record. Rock Nation Super Bowl viewership since he's taken over. I guess that's 2020. He did 103 million in 2020. 96.7 in 2021. 103.4 in 22. 121, Brianna in 23. 123.4 in 24. Kendrick did 133.5 in 25. and coming over the top by almost 2 million views, bad buddy. Bonito.

2:51Chad Johnson:Go ahead, Ojo. Hey, well, one thing I can say is a lot of people will complain and the percentage of people that didn't enjoy it, the percentage of people that didn't like it, the percentage of people that wrote think pieces and had huge dialogues on their displeasure with the halftime show and complaining about, oh, it was in Spanish. I didn't know what was going on. It's a very small percentage. junk it's a very small percentage what people have to understand is that the nfl is trying to grow they're trying to grow a consumer market outside of just the united states they want to grow globally that is the only way growing globally that you continue continue to to push the boundaries uh include cultural diversity and i think they're doing a really good job at it and if you think about it we've given a different halftime performer almost to every different genre of music.

3:40Chad Johnson:So whatever you do at this point, I think people still will not be happy. They're going to always complain about something. You will never be able to please everybody. So I like the direction that the NFL is going with the halftime shows and touching each and different genre of music and giving them their opportunity to have that big stage.

3:57Shannon Sharpe:And I think his interview on Apple Music is the most watched interview on that format. I think he did. He's 68 million and counting. But it's always funny the people that boycott, but they didn't tell nobody to boycott them when they perform. I know a guy that's talking about he had his own thing at another venue. But did you remember when he, ain't nobody boycott. We ain't gonna get into that, Ocho. Let's not do that. But you know what I'm talking about. But listening at people and they were talking about we paid$5 ,000 a ticket and we paid this. And it's like, I come to see Benito. I ain't know they call him Benito.

4:32Shannon Sharpe:I ain't know Benito Santiago. I didn't know that was his name. Bad money. But it's like, we come to see Benito, and they started speaking Spanish, and they were so excited. Yeah, they had on their team gear. They had on the Seahawks, and they had on the Patriots. Somebody, I think I saw somebody, his team wasn't even in it. He said, I came to see Bad Bunny. I came to see Benito. Right, right, right. At some point, I mean, you're not going to please everybody. When they had Kendrick, he wasn't broad enough. When they had Usher, he got old songs. When they had Rihanna, well, she showed up pregnant.

5:06Shannon Sharpe:They had Kendrick. I mean, excuse me, when they had Dr. Dre and Snoop and Mary J, you're not going to please. When you got almost 400 million people in the United States, you're going to offend someone. But you know why? Because people are looking for reasons to get offended. Yes. Ocho, I don't like apples. Okay, if I don't like apples, just because I like something, that don't mean I hate something else. If you like oranges, that don't mean you hate apples and bananas. That means you like oranges. Right, right, right. You like mangoes. That don't mean you hate watermelon and honey, dude. But people get so offended, they're looking for a reason to get offended.

5:44Shannon Sharpe:Oh, this is an American sport. This is... Okay. It's gonna broaden the horizons. You like American food, but you be tearing up some Mexican food. You tear up Indian food. You tear up Jamaican food. But y 'all need to stop this. Stop looking for reasons to get offended. Like I said, I ain't no one word. I couldn't tell you what the song was, but I was grooving. and the visual effects and the production was over the top. Over the top. I love how he played to his heritage, Jocho. I love the guys playing dominoes. I love the sugar cane. I love the snow cones. I love the ladies in the nail salon getting their hair done.

6:23Shannon Sharpe:I loved it. Um,

6:26Chad Johnson:even if you don't understand the words, um, you become one with the music. I'm moving. Sometimes you go to the club. Hey, sometimes you go to the club, Unc. You can't even hear what's being, you can't even hear was being played, but you become one with the music. It's easy to do. I think most of the people that were complaining, saying, oh, my goodness, I don't understand what he's saying. Okay, if you don't understand what he's saying, just go and flow with the beat. It's about having a rhythm. Maybe you don't have rhythm. Maybe that's why they mad. Probably. Because if you got rhythm, all you do is you catch the beat and become one with the music and have fun.

6:58Chad Johnson:That kind of music, it's about a vibe. You don't need to understand. when you travel to the DR, when you travel to Spain, when you travel to Puerto Rico, when you travel to Brazil, you're not going to understand what they're saying. You're not going to understand the music, but you're not going to understand the words, but you become one with the music depending on where you are. And people need to understand what the NFL is trying to do globally, not just here. We want it to be one of the best sports to watch outside of the U.S. And we're competing with soccer, which is number one, outside of the U.S.

7:32Shannon Sharpe:Well, soccer's the number one in the world because the Europeans play it and more countries play it. Yes. African nations, European countries. Of course. They play soccer. Of course. Really, they don't play America. And that's why basketball is so big globally because there's the Slovenians and the Serbians and they got so many different people. But when in football, every once in a while, Locho, you'll get like the gentleman we're going to bring on tonight. We'll get a few here and there that come from Cameroon or come from Nigeria, come from different countries, but not to the vast number that's soccer, not to the vast number.

8:02Shannon Sharpe:That's why baseball. They got the Puerto Ricans and they got the Dominicans and they got the Nicaraguans and they got the Japanese with Shohei and these others and the Panamanians.

8:18Shannon Sharpe:Look, I've stopped looking for things to get offended for. Unless you're speaking directly to me, I'm good. Yeah.

8:28Chad Johnson:I mean, some people miserable. Yeah, there's nothing you could do about it. If some people are miserable and you have to allow them to live their miserable lives where nothing anyone else does is going to make them happy. They're going to find something wrong. They're going to nitpick at something. And it's unfortunate. That's some of the times that we're in now. We're in 2026. You know, when we talk about cultural diversity. They don't want cultural diversity.

8:53Shannon Sharpe:They don't. They don't. They want what they want. They want them to stay here. Everybody else stays here. Your opinion don't matter. Yes, and no one else gets the opportunity. My opinion should supersede yours. What I want should supersede yours. So it ain't no diversity. I mean, look, and somehow if somebody gets a job, oh, they are DEI hire. No one has benefited more from DEI than white women in America. but we ain't gonna have that discussion we're not gonna have a real discussion

Read the full transcript

15:06Chad Johnson:Tell me what that feels like as if I'm a little kid because I done played 12, 13 some years, but I've never, ever had the opportunity to have that feeling that you're having right now. So just give it to me rolling up. My bad. Pause, yeah, yeah.

15:21Shannon Sharpe:My bad, pause. Just, hey, hey, we're going to rewind that. We're going to rewind that and then we're going to play a game. I got it, I got it.

15:29Chad Johnson:My bad, my bad. Give it to me. Give it to him straight. Straight, yeah, there you go. That's a good one. My bad. Well, to be honest with you, man, Like, honestly, I'm not feeling how I thought I was going to feel, if I'm being honest with you. For real? Yeah. It's like, I don't know. The coaches have us wired in a way to where, like, every game is just like another game. Right. So when we're out there and play, that's truly how it felt. Like, it was just another game to us. Mm-hmm. Like, we expect to win. We expect to go into every match. Like, you know, we're going to dominate these guys. And, you know, it was all said and done.

16:03Chad Johnson:It's like, okay, like, what's next? You know, we got another game. That's just how it felt. But I'm sure like once I see that, but right now, I don't know.

16:14Shannon Sharpe:I just don't feel like how I thought I would feel. I don't know. It's crazy. That's funny. I mean, you're not the first guy that I've heard say that. But I think the thing for me is that everything as an individual, like, okay, I want to make the Pro Bowl. Oh, I want to lead the team. I want to lead the league. I want to be an all pro. That's an individual goal. But only one team. You know, there are four guys that make the Pro Bowl for wide receiver. There are three defensive linemen that make the Pro Bowl as a D lineman. But there can only be one Super Bowl champ. That means for the year, you get the basket, all the glory.

16:47Shannon Sharpe:And you mentioned, you said something very interesting. You're like, the coach has us wired that we take one game at a time, and you're like, okay, what's next? But this was the culmination. So going into the week, you're like, okay, you're watching them on tape because the difference is like, you know, you play a regular season game, you watch four games. You watch the last four games this team played. But when you watch this team, you watch everything. You go back from week one, you go to the playoffs, they sprinkle a little preseason in there. And so you guys were locked in from the jump. I mean, I'm going to throw that last quarter out because y 'all was like, okay, let's not get reckless and do anything like that.

17:26Shannon Sharpe:And they got some of the cheap yardage. He threw for the most yards in a single quarter than anybody in the history through the game and the game was a blowout. So how were you guys so able to get locked in and just basically have a bead on everything they were doing?

17:40Chad Johnson:Man, shout out to Coach Mike, man. He's like a nerd when it comes to this football stuff, man. He's in the lab and he's studying hard. He's making sure we're in the right, you know, the right cause. He's preparing. He's got assistant coaches, you know, making sure we know what's going on. We're on the game plan. We're studying every day. We're watching film. We have about two, three, four meetings a day. We're just so locked in. We're just communicating. We're talking. And just overall, just the whole team is just buying into what was going on. And we realized what was at stake. It was the Super Bowl.

18:07Chad Johnson:So everybody was just locked in, man. We just had one mission and one goal. We accomplished it. Yeah. With that goal to accomplish, did you expect to dominate the game the way you dominated it? Defensively. Because defensively, you guys won that game. Obviously, offensively, Kenneth Walker keeping that balance where you need to throw you through. But because you ran the ball so well, simply, you were able to control most of the game. Defensively, you watch. obviously you're going in, you watch film, you see how the Patriots look, you see how they look in the playoffs, you see how they look in the regular season, and you take bits and pieces of what you're going to get based on their tendencies.

18:39Chad Johnson:Dude, bro, you dominate the whole game to the point where some people are saying the game was a snooze fest, not understanding. No, this is a defensive game. The defenses are controlling the game. Yeah, they got a great defense over there. They got a lot of players over there. Their DB, number zero, he was playing phenomenal. Milton Williams, they made made plays. Number 33, Jennings, he made plays. They was just making plays. But we knew, we kind of knew going into this week that, you know, we wanted to show that he was going to be the best defense in the world, which we did. And we had our mindset made up that we're not going to let these guys come out here and, you know, do what they did to all these other teams.

19:13Chad Johnson:We know we get after Drake May. We killed their injury, which is him.

19:17Shannon Sharpe:They got nothing left. And we made sure we made that happen. When I look at you guys on defense, you're not that complex. Y 'all play quarter coverage. You keep the safeties back. And you say, you're not running the football, and so we won't have to drop a safety down. Because when I look, yeah, you showed something now. Y 'all brought a lot of slot. Listen, Spoon, you normally see Spoon in coverage. Y 'all saw something on tape because y 'all brought Spoon a little bit more than I'm used to seeing him. Now, normally, that's a worry. He normally comes on. But this time, he was back and Spoon was coming.

19:52Shannon Sharpe:What did y 'all see? They're like, you know what, we can catch him with the slot.

19:57Chad Johnson:Yeah, you just got to split it up. You know, I'm sure they go back and they do their study. They see we bring Nick a lot with a lot of pressures. So Mike said, you know what? Guess what? We're going to bring Spoon. And Spoon's a great blitzer. He's fast. He's quick. He's really fast, man. Spoon is fast, man. He can make linemen miss. He can juke. He can bend. He can just get to the quarterback in a hurry. Same thing with Nick. And so Mike just saw that. He switched it up. Nick's a great blitzer, but, you know, we switched it up with Spoon and he made plays.

20:21Shannon Sharpe:He timed those blitzes perfect because when he's going, I mean, he hit it on a dead run every time. When they snapped the ball, he was on a dead run. And it's hard because, like you said, they so small, big linemen used to block guys like yourself. And so when you get a DB and he doing all this right here, they got no chance. They got no chance.

20:43Chad Johnson:Hey, one thing I want to say, did coach without you being disrespectful to your opponents, did coach most of the time you go into a game plan, you go into a game, most of the time you want to recognize who the fish is. And you draw a circle around the fish's head. The fish is the weak link. Obviously, you have five people in the offensive line, but there's always one weak link. Based on the game we saw, it was three fish. And it started from the center going all the way to the left. Was that addressed before the game started, based on what you saw from their offensive line play throughout the week?

21:14Chad Johnson:Absolutely. But instead of fish, we call it tilapia. We call it tilapia. So we knew from the center all the way to their left, our right, you know those two rookies we gotta we gotta take advantage of those right okay down the road they'll be you know good players they'll develop but going into this game we couldn't let that

21:31Shannon Sharpe:slide we have to get out and the thing when you get a fish you don't let him off the hook and i saw because they end up putting d law d law normally rushes on the office office's right side the defensive left side they're like d law said let me get some of this man y 'all over there eating don't even invite me let me get a piece of this young fellow yeah yeah when spoon came on that blitz and you were right there because they made the mistake because spoon got through the guy blocked you and spoon just closed so quick because he was getting ready to throw and you were johnny on the spot so when you see spoon hit his arm and the ball's up in there what's going through your mind man i just was reacting honestly i didn't even think i just caught the ball and just took off running look left and right hope i ain't get caught no db back that's all was good i was out

22:20Chad Johnson:of there. Yeah. I mean, you got to think. Go ahead, Ocho. Hey, did it feel like you was running? Oh, I was going to say, did it feel like you was running in slow motion, like you running in quicksand, even though nobody was around you? Yeah, it's weird because that was my first time like being in that position, like catching up, like you receiving, you got to do it all the time. But me, I'm like, oh, okay, this is how it is. So let me just go ahead

22:40Shannon Sharpe:and not fall, not run out of bounds, let me not do something. Man, you ain't have no celebration set up. I mean, you got to have a celebration. Like, man, If I get a scoop and score, I get a pick six, I get something, I got to do something. You ain't have nothing playing?

22:55Chad Johnson:Well, being from Los Angeles, I usually hit my squabble. I'm sure you guys heard that before, the squabble. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Those things were just moving so fast. I was like, man, let me just celebrate with my teammates because we got to go back on defense again.

23:07Shannon Sharpe:You guys, look, I was thinking like, man, they might not score. This might be a situation. Because first half, nothing. I mean, basically through three quarters. And then did it dawn on you at any point in time and say, you know what? Man, we might shut these guys out. Hey, guys, man, let's see if we can pitch this shutout. Yeah.

23:29Chad Johnson:That's exactly what we were saying on sidelines. Like, yo, keep that goose egg up there. Don't let them score. Don't let them score. You know, they was able to move down the field. They got that bomb to Mac Hollins, and they got that scramble pass to Stevenson coming out in the goal line area. But we tried, man. We really tried to pitch that shutout. That would have been a great accomplishment in the Super Bowl. Yeah.

23:48Shannon Sharpe:Plus, when you think about Seattle, obviously the Legion of Boom. You know, you got Sherm and you got Earl Thomas and you got those guys, B-Wag, and you got that. But you guys are establishing a Danny on your own. Yeah, everybody's going to remember historic defense. They will get remembered. But you started something on your guys' own. You call you guys – what's this MOB? The dark side, huh? The dark side.

24:14Chad Johnson:Yeah. Yeah. Dark side. I'm a part of that. Yeah. Yeah. That's just something that we just try to bring, you know, our own identity. Of course, we respect the Legion of Boom and what they've done. So we've kind of tried to, you know, integrate our own way of life, our own thing. M.O.B., which stands for Mission Over BS. It's something the team came up with. And it's something that stuck. It's like our creed. It's something that we live by. And the dark side is just something that the defense has just incorporated and something we just built on.

24:43Shannon Sharpe:I look at you guys, get Ernest Jones. Ernest Jones was traded like twice in a single season. You get Big Leonard Williams. Yourself, you come over from the Chargers. When you look at this team and how you guys, D-Law came over in free agency, and you look at how this team is constructed, you guys are built. You guys are built. Now, that doesn't guarantee you because, you know, every year is different because we said the same thing about the Eagles, that the Eagles are going to be back and, boy, look at them, yada, yada, yada. it's going to be different because everybody's going to break you guys down and it's like okay look they like to keep them safeties back we've got to run the football so it's going to be a different year but the guys the way you're constructed you guys are built the lads you got a young football team you got a hungry coach and I think you got a group of hungry young men what's your mindset going into the off season because I'm sure you need some time away it's been a grind for five months six months it's been a grind you want to get away from it but when when would you start getting him back into it and when will you start like okay start getting into the group chat start talking to guys okay what's the plan for next season yeah like you said you definitely

25:50Chad Johnson:want to get away it's been a long season um this is my first time playing this long it's everybody's first time really playing this long except for a couple guys koop and ej um but definitely relax uh get our bodies right and it starts with ota's because that's where it started for us last year you know we made up that that identity that we want to start in ota's and build who we are start that brotherhood, that creed, that togetherness, that camaraderie that we built. All starts in OTAs, off-season workouts, everybody showing up, being there for each other. And that's where we start to build this thing for next year.

26:22Shannon Sharpe:He had an unbelievable game. Sacked, picked, took it to the house. Got so excited, he got a celebration. The world champion Seattle Seahawks. Or Chino Nwosu. Enjoy it. that ring is going to be something crazy because it seems like every year the gold is the top from the previous year. You saw what the Eagles look back. I'm sure Jason Beverly Hills is on speed dial because I know the thing, hey, that ring might be this size, right? It might be. I don't know if you're going to be able to lift your hand to hold that big old piece of rock.

26:58Chad Johnson:I got a question though. Yeah. Yellow gold or white diamonds? White. White. White. White. It's clean. It's up about that white. It's up about that white gold, man. Okay. We was deciding that as the leaders on the team, what we should go with, but I'm going to go by y 'all. Yeah. Yeah, that white going to be beautiful. Listen, I never won a ring. As someone that's somewhat of a jewelry connoisseur, it's going to stand out.

27:25Shannon Sharpe:Well, congratulations, man. Enjoy it. If you get an opportunity, well, your guys are probably always – you guys are back in Seattle now, right? Yeah, I got back this morning. Did you have an exit today or is it tomorrow? Tomorrow. Okay. All right. If you get an opportunity to see EJ, tell him to come back and join us because he told us he went to bowl. He's going to come back. So we expect him to come back. Yeah.

27:48Chad Johnson:For sure. I'll let him know. I appreciate it, man. Congratulations.

30:12Shannon Sharpe:Will Campbell declined to speak to the media after their brutal Super Bowl performance. Patriots reporter Mark Daniels tweeted, I asked Will Campbell to talk. He declined last night. He had tears in his eyes. I get that part of the job. I get that part of the job is to talk to the media, but also understands the human element of this. Tough situation for a rookie in overall. I thought he was good to the media this year. And to be honest, I've seen a number of Patriot veterans, including captives who have refused to talk over the years after regular season losses. So it's tough for me to criticize a rookie who had a tough game in the Super Bowl for not wanting to talk while crying.

30:48Shannon Sharpe:Ocho, you agree?

30:50Chad Johnson:Yeah. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. I mean, I think reporters, obviously, they have a job to do. but also understanding the human nature and losing a game like that and having to talk to players right after the game ends and understanding what it means to even reach a game of this magnitude and lose it with all the work that you put in. Some reporters understanding what players are going through and allowing them to be able to express themselves if they want to talk or if they don't and have an understanding of that. I know you want to get your answers, your questions answered, but I think it's cool that they understood this moment, and some reporters probably wouldn't.

31:33Chad Johnson:I mean, I don't see how you couldn't be that rude and lack self-awareness on why a player couldn't answer any questions you might want to have answered after a game like that. Let me ask you a question. If they win this game, do you think he declined in the talk?

31:54Shannon Sharpe:so is he only human if they lose is he not human if they win

31:59Chad Johnson:so you want him to sit there and have a conversation when he's crying knowing they just lost Super Bowl that happens we saw Josh Allen do it

32:06Shannon Sharpe:did we not just see Josh Allen cry

32:10Chad Johnson:yeah and we saw mean because he's a quarterback we saw mean no I don't agree with you if I don't feel good after losing Super Bowl I'm not talking when you win When you win, I want to see you talk. Let me finish. That's two different situations. If I win, I'm happy. Of course I want to talk. If I lose the Super Bowl and our season is over and I'm not feeling – I'm emotionally unavailable at that moment. So he's the first – I'm emotionally unavailable at that moment and I don't want to talk. He's the first offensive lineman to give up a sack at the Super Bowl.

32:45Shannon Sharpe:So what about those linemen from Carolina that let Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware beat them all game. Oh, when they played the Broncos? No, no, no, no. That's a part of it, Ocho. Being a professional.

33:03Chad Johnson:Win, lose, or draw. Man, listen, we're not going to use that professional word as a crutch every time a situation comes up when a player doesn't want to talk because he's emotionally damaged and he just can't. That's a part of it, Ocho. The guy's crying. Hold on. Hold on. He's crying hysterically in front of the camera. Who wants to see that? I don't want to see that. If you can't control yourself and you're crying because you're hurt, you know I don't answer the question. That's the human element of it. It should hurt. You lost and you didn't play well. Oh. Okay, we thought it didn't play well, so I also wanted to talk because it didn't play well.

33:42Chad Johnson:So he's hurt, he didn't play well, and he's crying. So you want him to not only play bad, but you want more embarrassment with him crying in front of his damn camera. That's the human element of it. No, you want to be, no, that's performative. That's what it sounds like to me. So in other words, you said he was performing. So he wasn't really hurt. He was just play, play crying. You want him to stand there crying after playing bad just to say, oh, no. Because everybody going to pile on him. You cry, baby, you shouldn't be crying because you played bad.

34:09Shannon Sharpe:No, you should. Because the more you invest in something, the more it's going to hurt. It should hurt. I'd have been upset if he wasn't. crying.

34:22Shannon Sharpe:You see what I mean? Ocho, Ocho, he got his ass kicked every playoff game. He got his ass kicked against the Texans. He got his ass kicked against the Broncos. He got his ass kicked last night.

34:47Chad Johnson:You see what I'm saying?

34:51Chad Johnson:Now you see why he ain't going for that goddamn camera? He be getting his ass whipped all goddamn posts. Yes. So what's new? What's different about this time?

35:02Shannon Sharpe:This ain't the first ass couldn't he took.

35:16Chad Johnson:Oh, man. you got to understand, it took a toll on him. Continuously losing like that in the playoffs. You know he could have done something about it. Oh my God. Could he have done something about it? I mean, probably not. Because at that point, if you're already getting your ass tow up in the postseason, once you get to the biggest stage, the biggest game, and you're playing against that defense, that front four, you're a top five pick.

35:46Shannon Sharpe:And I don't give you, Look, I get it. And it said, well, he got hurt. He's a rookie.

35:53Chad Johnson:He's a rookie. Yeah, you top five against those that you played against in college. But it's grown men down here, man. Ocho. Hey, grown men.

36:05Shannon Sharpe:There were growing pains. I'll give you a prime example. Go back and look at Garrett Bowles. Garrett Bowles got his ass kicked for years. They tried to run him out of town. turned himself into an all-pro. Because you know what? He get his ass kicked. He got holding calls. He got false starts. He got beat. But every time he step up to the mic, I got to play better, guys. Yeah. Now he's a first-team all-pro. Now he's a premier left tackle in all of football. That's a part of it, Ocho. You've dropped passes. You've had mistakes. I mean, just think about it. When you had your worst game, did you never not talk to the media?

36:47Chad Johnson:Rob Markman No, I love to talk, win, lose, or draw. You're going to get something out of me, no matter what. Everybody's not built like that. I understand being a pro, like you said, but most of the time, especially a young player like that, a rookie, obviously coming off bad performances back to back to back to back against really good defenses. And it's tough. It's tough because now you're exposed and everything's magnified on the biggest stage on how bad you've actually been. Now, there have been rumblings about the opposite line being bad, but you didn't see it because it wasn't magnified yet because you kept winning.

37:22Chad Johnson:But obviously, the biggest stage the world is watching, and then you go get your ass whooped consistently for four quarters? That hurts. That hurts. So I kind of understand it, especially when it's being a young player. But, I mean, listen, growing pains. You'll learn from this. You'll get better from this. You were a top five pick for a reason. And I'm sure, listen, you got to get a little stronger. Got to get a little stronger, especially allowing grown men to move you against your will when you're already anchored down. Nah, that can't happen. That can't happen. I don't know who your strength and conditioning coach is, but oh, that absolutely cannot happen.

38:02Shannon Sharpe:He definitely going to have to get in the weight room, his sets. He give him the edge far too easily. Maybe it was his left leg. But my thing is, Ocho, I tweeted and somebody responded to him. He was injured. Well, you don't get credit. He was injured. Everybody's injured in the Super Bowl. Even if that's the case, Ocho, you don't get credit for being injured and getting your ass kicked. You only get credit for being injured if you play well. That's the whole purpose. Or sit your ass down.

38:37Shannon Sharpe:That's the whole part. Nobody's mentioning. if Jordan doesn't play well in the flu game. What was so special about the flu game, Mocho? He had the flu, and he flew, flew, poisoned, and he did what he did. Right. We're not mentioning this.

38:56Shannon Sharpe:Kobe with the sprained ankle when he stepped on Jalen Rose. Well, okay, maybe J. Rose slid up on him. But if Kobe doesn't play well, we're not having these conversations. Right. I'm just old school. You ain't going to always be up. But when you're up, you talk, and when you're down, you talk. And you know what, Ocho? I got to be better. I wasn't good tonight. I hurt my team tonight. I cost them. I'm going to own this. Just like Josh Allen said, I cost my team. Me. My mistakes. You got to do it. It's a part of growing. It's a part of growth. It's a part of my being a professional. You and I, yeah, we love to talk.

39:41Shannon Sharpe:But don't think it's just because you love to talk, that thing get easy when you done mumped up.

39:46Chad Johnson:Oh, no. Oh, yeah, it get hard now. It get hard. It get hard. I done been there. You got another thing, huh? You won way more than I have consistently. So I had to do all my talking most of the time on the losing end. So I was very comfortable being uncomfortable. I got used to that. Got very, very used to being uncomfortable. Yeah.

40:09Shannon Sharpe:Will Campbell just allowed the most precious 14 in a playoff game since 2018. His 29 precious follow in a single season postseason is the most ever recorded by next gen stats. First round pick, the Patriots terrified Campbell is a bus. No, I don't think he's a bus because he was playing really good. And I don't think arms have anything to do with it. I just think the thing is that he needs to get with some really good offensive tackles. Call Big Willie. call Andrew Whitworth call some of the better tackles and Whit went to LSU so I'm sure Whit ain't got no problem helping him

40:45Chad Johnson:right but also most of the time too when you want to learn from someone that plays your same position you want to learn from people with your same body type with your same playing style because if you go to Big Willie if you go to Big Whit you go to Big Whit, Big Whit 6667 you go to Big Whit, Big Whit 6667 666, don't you? Yes!

41:10Chad Johnson:How are you 6 '6 with T-Rex arms? Hey, don't... Are you sure he's 6 '6? Are you sure he's 6 '6? Yeah! Hold on. They got to have the measurements wrong because there's no way you have... If you 6 '6, your arms have to be long in general.

41:31Shannon Sharpe:Not necessarily.

41:35Chad Johnson:That don't even sound... Now, I'm thinking maybe, you know, he was a little on the shorter side if he had short arms. Most of the time, that's almost reserved for those that are, you know, 6 '1".

41:48Shannon Sharpe:He's 6 '6", 320 pounds.

41:51Chad Johnson:With short arms? Oh, hell no. Okay, well, I understand. Well, listen, he...

42:03Shannon Sharpe:well how's he gonna punch if you got short arms that's the problem he ain't got no his punch cause like I said Ocho he has a problem with speed guys and a lot of guys have with speed guys but guys that can turn speed to power so they look like they're gonna bend it and then they boo you and when he sit down they go right over the top yeah okay yeah

42:29Chad Johnson:Yeah, Big Willie would be able to help with that. Go to Witt. Witt, too, yeah. Absolutely. Because you play with Witt, right? Yeah, Witt was with me in Cincinnati.

42:40Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, absolutely.

42:41Chad Johnson:Yeah. But, I mean, everybody doesn't have, like, long arms.

42:47Shannon Sharpe:If you look at, like, most athletes, if you look at, like, us Ocho, we got short torsos, long legs. Yeah. You see the way we built? Same way.

43:02From my waist to my head about this, I got long-ass legs and long-ass arms.

43:10Shannon Sharpe:Right. But that's the way most athletes are built. Right. Mm-hmm. It's just, man. Look, it's tough, Ocho, because like you said, you're on the biggest stage, 130 something million people watching. Everybody

43:33Shannon Sharpe:will remember this until you get that taste out of their mouth.

43:43Yeah?

43:46Shannon Sharpe:That's it. I mean, it ain't no secret, Ocho. If you drop a pass, you make a mistake until you atone for that. They ain't letting it go.

44:00Shannon Sharpe:Ocho, tell the chat about your week in San Francisco. How did your live streams go?

44:05Chad Johnson:Oh, my goodness. Chat, for those of you that don't know, I'm on Twitch for gaming. But this week in San Francisco, I decided to explore the city, see what San Francisco had to offer, see some of the hills, Golden Gate Bridge I enjoyed it I loved it the people were very receptive my favorite part about San Francisco and for those of you I don't know if you're in the chat but if you ever come to San Francisco Unk I told you about Mini Bell Soul Food Restaurant I'm not sure what area it's in I'm not familiar with the area yeah Mini Bells Unk I've never you know I love soul food I travel all over the world and I try all type of different cuisines.

44:52Chad Johnson:Well, good.

44:52Shannon Sharpe:I can't wait until you get on these bull, dick, and onions that we got whipped up for you in a couple of weeks. Bull, dick, and onions. Yep. Time out, Paul. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. We done found a lady. Ash done found a lady that can cook it. We done found a lady that can also cook cow cotton cabbage. Yep. You heard me. Cabbage with what? Cow, hoo-ha, and cabbage. You talking about like that? Cow, hoo-ha, and cabbage. Oh, you talking about like that? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. You was like, hold on, Chad. This man just said he liked to go different places and try different cuisines.

45:38Chad Johnson:Now, all of a sudden, he talking about nah, nah, nah. Yeah, but I'm saying just by the names of some of the things that you're saying, those don't sound like delicacies. I like going to places and trying delicacies. Yep. Never heard of it. Never heard of it. The chat, I've never heard of it either.

45:54Shannon Sharpe:I'm telling you. What you think I've been doing? I've been trying to, I've been locating all these places. And they have no problem accommodating you and I. Oh, so you're going to eat it too?

46:07Chad Johnson:Yes. Okay, but if you're going to do it too, I ain't got no problem. Yes. As long as you, yeah, as long as you, I ain't got no problem with it. I ain't got no problem. Yes. I'm willing to try anything.

46:18Shannon Sharpe:The sheep eyeballs and everything.

46:20Chad Johnson:Yes. Oh, hey, a little salt and pepper. I remember that. Yeah, because you listen. Sometimes, hypothetically speaking, if you were stranded on the goddamn island, like goddamn, like Tom Hanks and Cast Away, you had no choice but to eat what they're offering us to eat. You're going to eat it. Yeah. So I'm just putting myself in the mindset of this is all I have to eat. So I had no time for it.

46:48Shannon Sharpe:I can't wait until you see that thing on the plate. Them onions, spread that thing, come out there simmering. That steam coming up off it.

46:54Chad Johnson:Yeah, yeah, yeah. As long as it got a little seasoning. You can season up what you want to,

46:59Shannon Sharpe:but you still know what it is. Just like when you throw that Dallible whipped cream.

47:06Chad Johnson:It's still the same thing. That's fine. Hey, make sure they have a little ranch for me too now. Yeah, you know. You know, hey.

47:15Shannon Sharpe:Ocho, you got to get the flavor. I don't want you tasting ranch. I want you tasting the meat.

47:23Chad Johnson:Nah, don't do that. But don't do that. If I'm going to taste something, allow me to enjoy it by having seasoning. It's going to be seasoned.

47:29Shannon Sharpe:They're cooking it in season. They're cooking it in garlic. They're cooking it in onion. They got all the bell peppers. Yes.

47:36Chad Johnson:Yes. Yeah, I like that. Yeah, okay. I might need to add a little bit more. Nah, nah. Because I know what you're trying to do. No, no, no. No, no, no. Listen, my palate, your palate is a little bit different. My taste buds and your taste buds are a little bit different. Hey, bud, I want you to taste that.

47:52Shannon Sharpe:That cow who hoth and cabbage. That's what I want you to taste, bud.

47:58Chad Johnson:Yeah, I'm going to taste it, all right? You know, hey, I ain't got no problem, man. You know what they used to call me back in the day, huh?

48:03Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. And guess what? Won't cost you a thing. You won't have to pay no$80. No.

48:11Chad Johnson:Okay. Okay.

48:12Shannon Sharpe:But we got some delicacy coming. Chad, I can't wait. Y 'all see your Ocho. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. He's talking about he ready. Come on, man. We ain't got to do this.

48:26Chad Johnson:I can see him now. No, no, no, no, no, no. I'm telling you, boy. Man, I'm from the boy. You know, I don't play now, especially when they come to Eden's summer. I don't play.

48:37Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, we all, hey, everything. We eat everything. Chicken feet, we eat all of it. Pig ear, the pig ear sandwich. I know you eat the pig ear sandwich. That ain't nothing because all you got to do is add a little mustard on it.

48:48Chad Johnson:Pig ears, pig feet, pig tongue. Man, that ain't nothing. You know, you got to challenge me. Challenge me. Oh, yeah. Like, pull a fish out the water.

48:58Shannon Sharpe:Let's eat him without cooking him. Let's do that. I don't like sushi. me and my brother we used to catch fish and bite the head off when we were younger yeah yeah that's me but I'll no no no no no no for me to eat it is going to need to be cooked

49:17Chad Johnson:okay okay

49:19Shannon Sharpe:even if it ain't nothing but steamed you know what I mean I'm just saying I'm picking up what you're putting down

49:28Chad Johnson:we saw you line up against Coach Prime Who won that? You know who won that, man. You know 10 toes against eight, man. You know who won that. Once I put that coffee up, you know what time it was? Watch him, watch him, watch him, watch him. Oh, he done. He done already. You know why he done? Because he too low. He going to stab with that left because people forget.

49:52Shannon Sharpe:He going to miss.

49:53Chad Johnson:He going to miss. I'm going to dip right up under that. I'm going to dip a shoulder. I'm going to pick one side. I'm going to dip low, and when he stab, he's going to miss. And him stabbing and missing is going to push me forward anyway. Hey, man, any time I see Prime Chat, y 'all know we could be at church. We could be at a funeral. It don't matter where we're at. You know, every time we're lining up, it don't matter, man. It's always good to see Prime, man. He was in good spirits. It's good to see him moving around like that again.

50:20Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, considering what he had gone through earlier this year. Yeah, I mean, last year, excuse me. Yeah. Yeah. To see him out there like that. Yeah, it's a, he seemed like prime.

50:33Chad Johnson:Yeah, absolutely. He seemed like prime. Saw Pac-Man, saw Dez, I saw Desi Banks. I talked to Drew, I talked to Druski. Druski. I said, yeah, I said, hey man, the church people on top of you, man, how you feel, everything good? He said, yeah, yeah, Ocho. But the people got to understand, I'm creating content and I have to pull it from somewhere. I'm getting it from somewhere. So I'm not, why y 'all mad at me? and you the inspiration to it. Yeah.

50:59Shannon Sharpe:Y 'all mad at me, but y 'all study giving that man. Y 'all study giving that man. He's studying buying Rolls Royces and Bentleys and living in mansions. And you got to worry about it. I hope I'm able to play this light bill this month. But y 'all mad at a comedian.

51:14Chad Johnson:Yeah. It was dope. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed the entire week.

51:18Shannon Sharpe:I enjoyed the entire week. It was... Ocho, several people around the league believe Sean Payton, head coach of the Denver Broncos, will eventually give up play-calling duties to O.C. Davis Webb, per Jeremy Fowler. It wouldn't be shocking if that happened.

51:35Shannon Sharpe:Boy, I want to see that day. Yeah. I want to see that day.

51:42Chad Johnson:You don't think you'll relieve his duties, huh? No, I don't. Stuck in his ways.

51:48Shannon Sharpe:I do not.

51:52Shannon Sharpe:Sean Payton. claimed to fame. Right. Was calling plays. Yes, sir. He called the plays in Giants. When we beat them in the Super Bowl in 2000, called the plays on Coach Parcells in Dallas. He called the plays all that time in New Orleans. And he called the plays. I just don't see it happening. I'm not saying that it can't happen. I just say I don't see it happening.

52:22Chad Johnson:does Mr. Wells have any experience calling plays

52:25Shannon Sharpe:he was a quarterback's coach and they fired Pete Carmichael and elevated him oh you know basically Pete Carmichael got

52:41you know he got blamed for the call

52:43Shannon Sharpe:that Sean Payton made

52:52Shannon Sharpe:so no I just don't see it I don't see it and I think the thing is he kind of want to get back in that situation and and to get a do-over because he knows it I mean when he lays it he laid his head on that pillow down that Saturday night he know you have to yeah um we don't we don't have to uh we don't have to

53:15Shannon Sharpe:believe in the point but we will because he helped up yeah but this is what happens and hopefully Davis Webb comes in and does a great job I mean hey

53:33Shannon Sharpe:I'm not look I would have loved to see the Broncos but it's not like the Broncos can run the football either. So it would have been very difficult. I think the thing is the Broncos can get after the quarterback, so it might have been a sack fest. Right. I mean, you might have had 13, 14 sacks between the two teams because both teams can get off the rock.

53:56Chad Johnson:But even with that, let's say the Broncos are in a position tonight, I mean, you still give the edge to the Seahawks. Yes. They have to have a quarterback. I agree.

54:06Shannon Sharpe:I'm not going to fight you on that Ocho I'm not going to fight you on that but just like it's hard for the old guys I mean if you think about it Coach Landry called plays for the better part of his whole time when he was in Dallas so basically from 1960 1960 until 1988?

54:39Shannon Sharpe:Damn. So 29 years? It's just hard, Ocho, when those guys have been calling to give up that kind of control. Because that's what you do. You're giving them control. Then you get mad. You should have run it here. You should have threw it there. Just like, why don't you call the plays then? And so I don't see it happening. you know Jeremy Fowler seemed to think that it could happen but I just don't see it I don't

55:09Chad Johnson:it got to come from somewhere yeah

55:13Shannon Sharpe:and the thing is Ocho is that you know you might say that now because guess what ain't nobody calling no plays the last play got called tonight Clint Kubiak for the Seahawks and Josh McDaniel for the Patriots So there'll be no plays, no significant plays called until September. We'll see then. Right. We'll see if Sean Payton have that big-ass board, and we'll see. If you don't have the board, Davis Webb calling the plays. Calling the plays. If he has the board, Davis Webb not calling plays. Right. So it's interesting to see what the Broncos are going to do next year. How about this? Ocho, food prices and beer have been released for Super Bowl 60 at Levi's Stadium.

56:12Shannon Sharpe:The most expensive burger on the menu was a hammy burger for$180. It's a cheeseburger with a braised bone beef and a rib shank, roasted my, I don't know, Demi Glaze something and Point Rez blue cheese fondue on a baked brioche bun. Mmm. I mean, it looked good, but$180?

56:39Chad Johnson:Yeah, it's Super Bowl. What they got to do with it, Ocho? You understand there's a markup? There's a markup they have to be able to make money back? $180, Ocho? it's the times we in the day i mean you don't have no problem paying you don't have no problem paying the price when you go to uh chris ruth you don't complain about their prices nah they ain't got no 189 they ain't got no 180 dollar burger i'm just saying but it's a little it's

57:05Shannon Sharpe:a little pricey it's a little expensive and i get it yeah they have some some chefs the world renowned chefs preparing some of this stuff but damn right yeah and you know probably if you're

57:16Chad Johnson:a foodie if you're a content creator i think spending 180 to test this and film it and create content i think that would be a great choice if that is something that you would want to do i kind of get it uh 180 bucks super bowl experience it's a one-time thing i can see somebody and i'm sure somebody did it you know somebody that creates content i'm sure they bought it i'm sure they ate it and i would like to try it well it's too late now no i'm sure somebody gonna make

57:45Shannon Sharpe:it. I'm sure somebody got that make it somewhere. Right.

57:50Chad Johnson:I mean, that is a lot for a burger, though, huh? $180? He has a lot of damn money. Yeah, it looked like three burgers in one.

57:57Shannon Sharpe:Three patties. It is not no patties, Ocho. You do realize what it is, right?

58:07Chad Johnson:What?

58:10Chad Johnson:Okay, maybe I must have missed something. You said it was a burger,

58:13Shannon Sharpe:right? That's what they call it. right well I mean theoretically I guess if you you look at it on show because it's beef but yes sir I'm looking at that thing like a like that big ass bone that big old Fred Flintstone Brontosaurus bone hanging out the top of it

58:35Shannon Sharpe:it do look good though Chad that burger do look good don't it now

58:40Chad Johnson:yeah yeah a little Swiss cheese coming you know dripping down the side. It looked good.

58:45Shannon Sharpe:It looked good, and I like brioche. Like who? That bun, brioche. Yeah, I'm not familiar with that. How much that burger wore? I mean, I think$50,$60 might be good. $180? Oh, hell. Yeah.

59:06Chad Johnson:It's simply because of the festivity. because of the Super Bowl. That's why I was marked up so high.

59:14Shannon Sharpe:Ocho, ultra premium cocktails would run you$40. Lemonade was$12. Okay, that's trying to be right. See, Ocho, that's why I ain't go to the game. I just tried to get a burger, some fries, and lemonade. That's$300.

59:32Chad Johnson:You got to do like us. You know how our people are. We take what we want to eat and drink in there with us. You take it in with you. You go to the movies, you don't want to buy snacks you got your girl depending on her cup side I'm going to be in the suite eating that food

59:50Shannon Sharpe:I'm going to be there that's what I'm going to be eating they have some pretty good food

59:55Chad Johnson:depending on who suite you go to okay oh you're going to sit in the suite I don't like sitting in the suite I like sitting amongst the people so I can be a part of the game I am, that's why I'm in the suite

1:00:05Shannon Sharpe:I'm a part of the game we all in the stadium

1:00:09Chad Johnson:it ain't the same Monk. It ain't the same. It's not the same. When I take you to a World Cup game, we sitting in the stands so you can get... We are sitting in the stands so you can get the full experience of being at a soccer match, a football game. You can't get the true experience in a goddamn suite. That's for them famous people, man.

1:00:36Shannon Sharpe:They need to get me... I need something a little bit more. So$180,$240,$180,$220, plus fries, probably$15 for fries, plus some candy. Yeah,$300? Nah, hell nah. After you done paid, well, I guess, oh, Joe, they're looking at it like, look, you done paid, at bare minimum, you paid$3 ,000 just to get in. So what's another$300? Some people pay$5 ,000,$10 ,000,$15 ,000 a ticket. so when you pay that they're like what the hell you complaining about for another 300 dollars

1:01:14Chad Johnson:exactly right they understand the target audience yeah well at those prices ain't nobody really

1:01:21Shannon Sharpe:complaining don't you i mean you can complain all you want to but it's gonna be hard for you to not eat anything for four hours.

1:01:34Shannon Sharpe:And I don't know, I'm trying to think, have I ever seen somebody tailgate at a Super Bowl? I don't know if I've ever seen that.

1:01:43Chad Johnson:I don't even think they were. The price was so high, I don't think anybody paying to get in the Super Bowl I agree.

1:01:53Shannon Sharpe:So guess what? If you hungry, you're going to eat and you're going to pay them highest prices. Yeah. So I guess you I guess you're stuck. But that dude look good. Find out where we can get that from. I want to try it. Ocho we can cut it in half so we cut right down that bone. You get half I get half.
