You are the latest in a long line of these all time great players going back to John Mackey and Mike Ditka.

你是最新的一個，在這些偉大的球員中，可以追溯到約翰・麥基和邁克・迪特卡。

Growing up playing the game, I'd have to say, Um, so Shannon Sharpe was really fun to watch because you could do about anything.

長大後玩遊戲，我不得不說，嗯，所以香農夏普是真的很有趣的手錶，因為你可以做任何事情。

Um, you know, I was in the Midwest guy, and I really I grew up watching Dallas Clark, you know, I had season tickets in Iowa.

嗯，你知道，我是在中西部的傢伙， 我真的我長大了看達拉斯克拉克， 你知道，我有季票在愛荷華州。

I went to every single game, watches to final season when he played tight end when he won the Mackie.

我去了每一場比賽，手錶到最後一個賽季，當他打緊端，當他贏得了麥基。

Um, and so watching him, I just always wanted to be, you know, the blue collar guy that just works It works his tail off and then, you know, take advantage.

嗯，所以看著他，我只是一直想成為， 你知道，藍領的傢伙，只是工作 它的作品他的尾巴，然後，你知道，利用。

That takes advantage of the opportunity when he gets it.

這在他得到機會的時候就會利用。

And so, watching Dallas Clark was, you know, one of my favorite players of watching, you know?

所以，看達拉斯-克拉克是，你知道，我最喜歡看的球員之一，你知道嗎？

Then, as I grew up a little bit watching Gronk was always really fun.

然後，隨著我一點點長大，看格隆克總是非常有趣。

For me to watch is because of how dominant he was, especially that 2012 season.

對我來說，看的就是他的統治力，尤其是2012年那個賽季。

Um, that was really fun for me and, uh, you know, Then in college, I watched Travis Kelsey dominate, too, and so just growing up.

這是一種超現實的感覺， 嗯，你知道，得到比較他 這是一種瘋狂的，但是，呃，你知道， 只是享受這個過程。

But I really enjoy all you know, good, tight and play well, let me ask you about Gronk because you know, that is a guy who I think you could make an argument is the greatest ever to do it.

但我真的很喜歡所有你知道的，好的，緊密的，玩得很好，讓我問你關於格隆克，因為你知道，這是一個我認為你可以提出一個論點的傢伙是有史以來最偉大的。

That that you could defend that argument if you wanted to.

如果你想的話，你可以為這個論點辯護。

And he makes the He makes the big plays all the time.

而且他一直在做大動作。

You know he did in New England.

你知道他在新英格蘭做了。

He's doing in Tampa.

他在坦帕做。

But really, um, you know, my favorite part about Gronk is when he has zero targets and zero catches, accept and then he dominates in the run game.

但說真的，嗯，你知道，我最喜歡格朗克的部分是當他的目標數為零，接球數為零的時候，接受，然後他在跑動中佔據主導地位。

That's my favorite game.

這是我最喜歡的遊戲。

I remember what the last time New England wanted.

我還記得上次新英格蘭隊想要什麼。

They played the Chargers at home.

他們在主場對陣衝鋒隊。

It was like a freezing game.

這就像一個冰凍的遊戲。

I think he had like, two catches, but he just physically dominated the D line all day and it was just so fun to watch that.

我認為他有喜歡，兩個接球， 但他只是身體主導D線一整天， 它只是如此有趣的觀看。

You know, when you have a Titan has a physical presence, it changes up everything you could do in the run game.

你知道，當你有一個泰坦有一個身體的存在， 它改變了一切你可以做的運行遊戲。

And in the past game because now they have the linebackers and safeties have to step up a little bit on the play action.

而在過去的比賽中，因為現在他們的後衛和安全員必須在比賽動作上加強一點。

And you know, the influence that Grand Cats in the game, even when he's not catching the ball, is, uh is an incredible.

你知道，大貓在比賽中的影響力，即使他不接球的時候，也是，呃是一個不可思議的。

It's like the defense has to pay attention to a magazine, a place.

就像防守者要注意一本雜誌，一個地方。
