00:00Now we're going to check in with former pro football player, Dwayne Allen.
00:05Hey, Dwayne, what up?
00:08Trying to say what's good.
00:09Thanks for having me on.
00:10Oh, man, thank you so much for doing this.
00:12Now, you won a ring in 2018, so do you know how this type of victory feels?
00:20I know how it feels on both sides.
00:22I was fortunate enough to be playing in a big game in 2017
00:25and being on the losing end to Philadelphia.
00:29And then playing in 2018 and being on the winning end.
00:33So I can speak to both ends and what both teams are feeling right now.
00:39And, you know, starting with Philadelphia is heartbreaking, right?
00:42Yeah.
00:42All the hard work that you put into the season,
00:45the emotional highs and lows,
00:50the physical toll that an NFL season puts on your body.
00:53Yeah.
00:54You know, and then you get to the end of it and you're not crowned champion.
00:57That hurts.
00:58Yeah.
00:59But then for, you know, a Kansas City Chief team who,
01:04very similar to the club that I was playing with in Boston,
01:08were expected to be there.
01:09And we're kind of seen as underdogs because people hate to see a winner win.
01:15Yeah.
01:15It is what it is, right?
01:19Like, people didn't want Kansas City to win because they're winners.
01:23And, you know, Kansas City was able to go out there and execute at a high level,
01:28make some halftime adjustments, and, you know, come out as champions.
01:31Yeah, you're absolutely right.
01:33What were the game highlights for you?
01:35You know, the internet's going to blow up on the call at the end of the game,
01:42but there were calls before that.
01:45There was a Nick Bolton fumble recovery for a touchdown that was taken back because the pass was ruled incomplete.
01:55There was a third down catch by Dallas Goddard that was finally challenged by Andy Reid that was overturned or,
02:09or excuse me, upheld because of replay, which was questionable, right?
02:15So, like, so much attention goes to that flag at the end of the game, the holding call.
02:21But there were so many questionable plays throughout the game that really were the highlight in this game before it even got to that one.
02:30So, look, it was so exciting to see those guys go out and play.
02:36So, Patrick Mahomes, his run on that hurt ankle had to be the highlight for me.
02:41A guy who, of course, is MVP caliber, but hurt his ankle in the first half, you know, was able to come out in the second half.
