Peyton Manning Tells Pat McAfee Why Tom Brady Is So Successful

I had the opportunity to play on an NFL football team that had a guy playing quarterback who was officially inducted into the hall of fame last night, a guy who walked through a casino and said to me, hey, how about that 18 red and then? He left and showed me that this guy is potentially a time traveler. A man who surpassed all the humans he had ever seen in my life. He was too nice to me. He quarterbacked two different cities and won both men's and women's Super Bowls. a name synonymous with the game of football in the league joining us now

peyton

I'm going to take you with me everywhere with that kind of introduction right, I want to hear that again well, I don't know if I don't I don't know if I could repeat it or you do not deserve it.

I've always told people that you were incredibly nice to me, too nice to know, there was no reason for you to be as nice as you were to me and you were like that. with everyone and I heard you talk to Jeff on Saturday last night, you said the team was the most important thing to you, what was it about football? Do you think he made you fall in love like you were playing forever and dedicate your whole life to him? Yeah, just that just the team aspect I always like team sports you know where you have guys that can help you if you're having a tough day and you can help them if maybe they're having a tough time and we're sitting on the bus right here I've got calvin johnson in front of me allen fannika john lynch and charles woodson draw pearson are on the bus behind us but that's all we've been talking about is teammates like you memories locker room conversations plane rides that It was the best part, I mean, the football plan was great, but if it was just that you didn't have those friendships and memories that you made with those guys, that you were working hard with the team managers, uh, all that.

I cared and, uh, it's been fun to go down memory lane these past few days. Well, I appreciate you joining us, especially from where you're joining now because we'll just say the entire Hall of Fame class of 2020. was on the show because I think they've been coughing in the background, you know, I heard them, I heard them back there, taking a trip down memory lane, I'm sure it was incredible, your relationship with Jim Irsay is very fascinating to I'm okay because every time he made the decision, they made the decision to move on and you go to Denver and it happens the press conference and all that, our world changed drastically in Indianapolis, by the way, I don't know if you heard it or not. but everything changed drastically there so you go on, you have a big hit in Denver and now I just saw a picture of you leaving, I think a 757 that's Jim Irsay's, what was that?

Have you ever been on that plane before? It was uh, it was me, I thought it was like the team was playing challenging all the Indianapolis Colts, uh, literally, I mean, it has the logo, uh, Pat, and uh, it was awesome, but that's just Jim Pat, I spent 14 wonderful years there, obviously it's The team I wanted to play for, things always happen. I got injured. You know, the Colts get the first-round pick. You know being bitter and being frustrated is like ruining everything you worked for in those 14 years, so Jim Irsay was cast. He always supported me and then I understood the decision that he had to make and without hard feelings and that he sent his plane to take me and my son here.

It was a great gesture, plenty of room for Marshall and I tossing the soccer ball. A very good, very good experience, a very good father-son weekend, yes, I can understand that and I'm happy that you're enjoying fatherhood, you know, and I think that's something that I don't. 100 sure, if I ever talk to you, but I think the world, by the way, while he's moving from one event to another right now, you're the best friend, where are you headed now? I'm going to the game, I'm going to the game I've got Lynch I've got Vanica I've got these guys in the background guys that's you congratulations congratulations guys okay

peyton

oh hey there's marshall hope you enjoyed that plane buddy hey peyton last thing here um you're talking to tom

brady

you become friends with him it was interesting to see oh yeah, take the photo, take it well, we'll finish this, you talked to Tom Brady, how long did that happen?

Did Clyde Christensen you and Tom have a conversation before you left for Tampa? How was that? It's been a transition and do you feel like you're one of the only people you can talk to about his entire NFL experience? Well I'll tell you, pat um, I don't think anyone can do what Tom has done, look, I know how. It was hard for me to get on the same page with my receivers learn a new system learn new coaches but I had a full offseason I got injured I was rehabbing the fact that Tom had done this in a covid offseason there is no time to meet with his receivers he reunited with his coaches illegally by breaking into byron levinson so on top of that it's been incredible what he's been able to accomplish and he deserves all the credit his leadership is what put the dollars into this game today and i have great respect for him . for him because I know how difficult it is, but he deserves all the credit.

Hey, how did you know red 18 was coming? I mean, I can't tell you how much I appreciate you telling that story and growing the legend that it was. About the eighteenth time I tried it and you know, when it doesn't hit you, you just keep walking, no one really

tells

you about it, so when it hit, I was just as surprised as you were and, uh, the reaction of some of them. of the good old boys that were there in the casino that night was very special, well I appreciate you doing that, you made me and those people in the casino a lot of money, congratulations on the hall of fame, nod, thanks for spending time have fun in the game peyton pat thanks buddy I appreciate you sheriff's hall of fame that makes sense he was out for 17 with that you know the volume shooter there but it turns out I was there for the only time.

I wonder how many people who are speakers he made. that in the past because they never tell me the story, man, it was a heroic moment in the casino, what a legend, we were part of the hall of fame, filmed there, your photo is on the other side, what an electrifying time, just waiting . to foxy to calvin to forgive detroit release the curse I reached out you know I said hey, any possibility and the response was like hey, there's a lot of things, you know, because the whole hall of fame thing is like I was, they told me to the whole hall of fame thing and I was like, hey, even if it's for five minutes while you're going to an event, he said okay, you have to block it or whatever, so that's exactly what happened, I can't thank you enough for that.

It was really cool of him to make his son wear my house shirt. I saw that I saw that there were many questions. What if his son flew on a 757? Yes, it was good for him to catch it for a long time. People thought so. There was a chance that Peyton wasn't going to have kids because he was too focused on the game or whatever, so every time he had the twins or whatever, it was good for him, I was excited to see how it changes him, no. It was like that at all. He wanted to win a couple of Super Bowls and all that, that was amazing, the 18 red man, what a moment man, you're talking about people with less than two teeth, yeah, I imagine less than two teeth down and also some people well dressed Also, let's not go crazy, but we're just talking about people we're talking about, yeah, we're the group that got along with that and who literally probably to this day still tell stories about jesus christ coming in, yeah, in the form of peyton

manning

and They saved like the last, you know, 150 dollars.

Everyone took every chip on the table and placed it as if it were not so. At each package table, everyone only had one stack. I've never seen it before. It was incredible. Hits, imagine how it feels, yeah that's what I thought, damn.
