Description
EP #18: A busy news day on the latest Off the Edge with Cam Jordan podcast. Cam reacts to news of the Saints firing offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael plus two other offensive coaches. He also salutes Eagles center Jason Kelce who, reportedly, has told teammates he will retire after 13 NFL seasons. Cam is then joined by his teammate, linebacker Demario Davis. Cam gives Demario his flowers for making the All-Pro team for the fifth time in his career. Demario shares how he’s still training as if he’ll play in the Super Bowl even though the Saints season is over. He also delves into his fandom of LeBron James, and how he uses James as motivation for why he plans to play another four to five years. Demario reflects on his transformation from being burned out and on the brink of retirement at 27 to becoming a perineal All-Pro in his thirties. And, even though he’s made a name for himself as an NFL star, Demario explains why his legacy will extend beyond the gridiron. Cam ends the show by picking his personal All-Pro defensive team. 00:00 - Start of show  00:11 - Cam teases what’s to come on the episode  00:45 - Cam reacts to Saints coaching moves 3:10 - Cam reacts to Jason Kelce telling teammates he will retire  5:24 - Cam’s big takeaways from each playoff game  15:16 - Start of Demario Davis interview  16:20-  Demario’s reaction to the news about the Saints coaches getting fired 18:44-  Demario on how he’s spending his first week of off-season  20:25 - Demario on his plans to play 4-5 more years  21:10- Demario’s revelation  23:20 -Demario reflects on a conversation he had with God before almost retiring in 2016 27:09 - Demario on how the term “Hybreed” came about  29:43 - Demario on how their loss against the Packers in week 3 slowed their momentum  34:22 - Demario on the lasting impact of playing alongside players like Darrelle Revis, David Harris, and Antonio Cromartie his rookie year  37:47 - Demario on the Saints' defense having several seasoned vets and the hurdles that come with different communication styles between different generations  49:22 - Demario on balancing football and faith and how he ultimately wants to be remembered  53:15 - End of Demario Davis interview  53:32 - Cam picks his personal All-Pro defensive team. 57:30 -  Cam closes the show 58:31 - end of show **Note: time codes are approximate The Off the Edge with Cam Jordan podcast is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeart Radio.
