Chiefs Veach interview on Rich Eisen Show

CupidStunt · 02-04-2020, 05:59 AM

Fascinating listen. He starts talking about the drafting of Pat around 5:20 which is great. Talks about how they were nervous after the Bears took Trub (THANKS BEARS) that there'd be a run on QBs and they couldn't higher than 10.

CupidStunt · 02-04-2020, 06:03 AM

9:50 - talks about the 2am McDonalds runs he was doing as Andy's PA way back when in Philly.

Rasputin · 02-04-2020, 06:14 AM

He said something like 'Everyone wanted to win the Lombardi for Andy Reid but Andy Reid wanted to win the Lombardi for everyone else'. That's a hell of a man in Andy Reid to want that for us. Tearing up . Everything is so special.

Yea I think that pretty much summed it up perfectly. I live in central Pa and every Eagles fan I know wanted him to win it.

Also loved Kelce saying that he’s married to this team for life in his post game interview!

I have a few friends that have been lifelong Eagles fans and they were absolutely ecstatic for Andy. I was surrounded by Redskins and Ravens fans on Sunday and they were cheering (nearly) as enthusiastically as I was during the comeback. It's amazing how well Andy is loved throughout the league and by fans everywhere

Doesn’t sound like a guy who is ready to let Chris Jones go.

I’ve read some stuff that they may tack on a year to Mathieu’s contract in order to create cap space this year.

Lynch did a great job with the 49ers. But veach not getting exec of the year was a huge miss. The 49ers is a team 3 years in the making. Veach reinvented the defense entirely overnight. Also while the 49ers faced no adversity, consider that veach had a huge crisis at qb, run defense, and multiple OL injuries. He not only fixed those problems, he found upgrades mid-season. That's absurd. Matt Moore was probably better than Henne. Rankin and wisnewski better than Wylie. Pennel better than Xavier Williams. Suggs better than okafor.

Watched the interview last night and was really impressed by Veach. Man, he worked his way up the ladder. Nothing handed to him at all.
