Shannon Sharpe recaps Rams’ Super Bowl win, Aaron Donald’s dominance, Joe Burrow I NFL I THE HERD

when he left the nfl uh he led all time for a tight end uh receiving yards receiving touchdowns most receptions he's a hall of famer he's also a start our network the three-time super bowl champ shannon sharp we only ask him to come on our show once twice a year let's bring a man on who's got rings you know it's funny you were in a super bowl i remember this you were in a super bowl that there was trash talking and you were hysterically funny this one we said this there were no villains right it was not a lively super bowl week never we would talk to nba this week as much as nfl right um what was your interpretation mine was the best players for the rams were better than the best players for the bengals like when you go into a super bowl there's eight stars let's say each team has four the rams four showed up and the other four that was my take away that's what that's what i took away also the questions that we had all week long was could the off cincinnati bengals offensive line could they hold up against the front four of the rams and early on joe burrow did a great job of getting the ball out of his hands fast but he didn't have a whole lot to show for it so he got impatient and they wanted to push the ball down the field so we go scat protection which means all eligible receivers are out in the route there's no chipping there's no max protecting and if you notice something and i noticed it very early on raheem morse did a great job he lined up bond miller and aaron donald on the same side a lot and he did a lot of games with him because cincinnati the the offensive line isn't that good so if you get on different levels aaron donald is looking to get a crease he can hit a crease which me in the football terms we say making yourself skinny well a 285 man making himself skinny is very hard to do but he does a very good job of that getting his body in the crease and what he can do he can bend the edge if you notice on that last play that he made he got skinny and then he turned the corner so quickly burrow really didn't have a chance to do anything but that's on zach taylor you got three plays you get three plays three downs to get one yard you can't get one yard on three downs you threw one away because you thought jalen ramsey was going to get nosy the second one donald walks the guard back tackles pete ryan with one arm and then the next play is like okay he's like it's scat protection you're gonna leave me one-on-one with the guard okay bye i'm home um you know the logan wilson i i looked at it this way the 75-yard no-call touchdown right i thought was a big miss but i always kind of bake in reps will miss a couple yes the logan wilson one you can argue they didn't call it all game but situationally in the super bowl with an mvp receiver there was a lot of touching what did you make of it i thought i thought they let them play a lot i was surprised that they actually caught it considering that up until that point they really only called three penalties they caught two false starts on the rams and they caught unsportsmanlike conduct with the guy in in civilian clothes was out on the field and the line was celebrating with the defense after they got a turnover so that was it that was the only three and so the last minute and a half two minutes of the ball game they threw like four or five flags it turned into a flag fest but i thought some of the calls were deserved um i thought the uh and henderson on the texas route with the back he goes out and he comes up on the angle route i thought 57 grabbed him they didn't call that yeah you still even though okay matthew stafford leads him down on the 15-play drive colin gets the game go ahead touchdown joe burrow you still have two timeouts in a minute and 30 seconds to go get in field goal range you have a kicker that's a young justin tucker he has that kind of leg that kind of accuracy okay go get it done you got it second and one third and one fourth and one but i thought zach taylor made a mistake by not running joe mixon more a lot of times you get into the game column like this and you have young talented quarterbacks you try to play to them run through joe mixon make them sit in there and so they just don't pin their ears back once in the second half joe burrow his last 22 drop backs got sacked seven times jesus the last play in the third first half aaron donald got him made him settle for a field goal and then 21 drop backs after that he got sacked six times wow so last 22 drop backs he was sacked seven times wow last five drives punt punt punt punt turnove on downs after they took a 20 to 13 lead they had 50 total yards that's not on the officials that's on the bengals yeah and i i said this to start my show teams will tell you what the tape says by their game plan cincinnati told you we're not going to be able to block their front i mean they were just getting the ball borough had his fastest release point all year yes like that's the coach has told you we're going to be overwhelmed right up front but that's not their offense their offense is to push the ball down the field that's right so let me do what i feel yeah that's good because if you you mention it they got a 75-yard touchdown they got a 46-yard catch from jamar chase so that's a hundred and what 20 that's 121 yards they had 263 passing so the other 21 of 30 31 they had 140 they had 140 yards passing what do you make you know it's funny about this uh shannon so you had 12 great years with the broncos a very functional organization and then you went to the ravens so you it's hard for you to relate to matt stafford's first 13 yards you had uh uh mr bol you had really good teammates really and that's not to say all your teams were great but when you missed in a draft pick or you had injuries the functionality of your career i look at stafford and i put his numbers up against aaron rodgers today in the playoffs right with one functional year right did you think matt would be this good this quickly yeah i knew it was good because sometimes we you can be you can be a great actor in a bad movie and people think you suck he was a great he was a great player in a dysfunctional organization and people thought he sucked one of the biggest players of the game is he threw a no-look pass he's looking at the tight end i love that the safety drive the tight end because he thinks he throws it to him and he throws the ball to cooper cup who's coming on the end cutting behind it he's done that play a hundred times in detroit who cares you're in detroit you're not in the playoffs you're losing but he did in the super bowl he has unbelievable ability and i'm glad he got an opportunity opportunity to showcase it on a big stage this this changes the perception of how people will look at matthew stafford moving forward because guess what would have been said had tom brady done that very drive they had a parade they wouldn't wait until tuesday they had a parade last night he did exactly what tom brady had tom done a lot of those drives and they resulted in field goals a field goal wasn't going to do it for him he had to put the ball into the end zone and he did it um you know you were one of these players so and i can remember watching you with denver you you looked different you were you were you looked like a defensive end that ran and could catch and it happens infrequently um when when an athlete mike tyson in his prime scared other boxers yes you're like okay don't want any part of that right aaron donald to me you knew reggie white yes that's what it feels like to me significantly better than pro bowl offensive lineman there's a reason why when they rate him they say he's a top five player not quarterback not positional player he's a top five player in the league and the thing that makes them and even though tj watt deserved to win defensive player of the year there's no question about that but the de facto best player in the league is aaron donald because he does what he does year in the year out double team after double team and you see how his game took off once they added von miller so now you can't devote all your attention to him or vaughn's going to eat vaughn looked like super bowl 50 vaughn yesterday yeah people like well vaughn is done well yeah he's done drew luck was his quarterback and he's playing down 21 nothing you can't rush the quarterback when you're down 21 nothing now all of a sudden he's playing with a lead he has another great player alongside him remember vaughn when he had d-ware he had malik jackson he had derek wolfe he had peyton manning as his quarterback you remember his numbers well this is what he has in in in in la now but aaron donald i believe when it's all said and done you will probably say lt is 1a and he's going to be 1b i agree i believe he should have won uh uh uh mvp last night i thought he was i thought he dictated the game the the bengals game plan so for two weeks the bengals game plan didn't i mean obviously cooper cup the game plans yeah uh who they couldn't stop late but if you looked you said this earlier in this interview cincinnati is a throw the ball down the field team they did that against tennessee's pass rush yes cincinnati coaches said yeah we won't be able to do that right when you when i can force you over two weeks of practice to say yeah we're gonna have to here's our here's our fastball we can't throw it right that to me is aaron donald if you look at cincinnati was about to blow this game open they get the touchdown first play of the game yeah they come back uh and matthew stafford throws an interception this is about to go this is about to get blown wide open aaron donald gets the sack now they have to settle for a field goal and then he takes the game over again late so i it's not to say cooper cup wasn't deserving but i think aaron donald the total domination they took the game completely over in the second half but it was an unbelievable ball game last night and and to watch aaron dawn to watch that defense dictate and and you know joe burrow says we got plenty of years they said the same thing as a matter of fact mourinho was younger than joe burrow when he went in the second year and he never got back to the super bowl and joe you said they have the third most cap space guess what cheap mike brown they'll have the first most casual space because he ain't spinning the vehicle that's just the way they operate but colin he won't make it to year 10 if they don't protect him better no he got hurt i'm not so sure he would have stayed in the game if this was a regular season game he stayed in that game after they got enrolled because this was the super bowl you can't get sacked 70 times in the season and expect to play an extended period of time no it's not going to happen there's an argument to be made cincinnati's first three draft picks should be offensive absolutely now now we do know last year they thought about taking an offensive line they yeah yeah and who had nice yearbooks uh but they went out and took jamar chase i didn't have a problem with it knowing what 2022 football is right but you paid the price this year for that yes that prop probably cost your super bowl because if you could block let's just say for the sake of argument instead of giving up seven sacks you give up three or you give up four and the matter in which you i mean you you can't give up six sacks in the second half on 21 drop back you give up six sacks you're probably gonna lose and people like well he did give up get nine sac sack nine times against tennessee and he won but that's but tennessee's offense isn't comparable to the ram's office not close so that that's the difference in the ball game joey you said something very interesting you said cooper cup and jerry rice are the only guys to win offensive player of the year and super bowl mvp only thing is and the triple crown cooper cup did it in one season he won the triple crown offensive end offensive player of the year and super bowl mvp in one season jerry won his he won two of the two of the three in 87. well rice and cooper also have brilliant coaches yes and great quarterbacks yes but very functional offensive lines so the quarterback has more now it's not to say hooper cup's not great right but there is some you you know this better than everybody it did help you because uh you had a functional franchise yeah cooper comp better what effect is everything yes i mean cooper cub has been here he put up 145 with jerry golf right i thought matt uh sean mcveigh did a very good thing he learned this lesson from the first super bowl loss he found that he couldn't run the ball early in that game and he just abandoned the run completely and started throwing even though he was getting less than two yards of carry he was still making sense that he think i still might throw a run in here zach taylor totally abandoned the run and just went throw throw throw and so the defensive line says it's quarterback season let's just go hunt shannon sharp by the way uh the whole spectacle uh uh the television broadcast the halftime show was amazing you were there i thought it was an advertisement nbc 10 hours of saying hey you're a high school football player we got some colleges here i i honestly did i feel i always feel that with the rose bowl it's dead of winter right the event for you how was it i thought it was very well um outside of the the parking that was between 900 and 5000 for a parking pass which i did not pay for but i'm just saying look it's become a very very expensive event and i understand because here's the thing colin when i went to the super bowl you know how much the tickets cost 3.25 325 but people were willing to pay four and five thousand dollars for the ticket so the nfl says if you'll pay for it we just put that at face value instead of the you know the aftermarket you get the markup we'll just charge that it's become a very corporate expensive event the casual fan is getting priced out of it um i had a friend of mine took his son and it was a four-day minimum and he got tickets and everything cost him 27 grand for him and his son oh boy so a family of four good luck with that hey what a pleasure it is to have you love you being part of
