Dude you have GOT to get CMC back as much as possible! This was one of the best episodes. You three have a great chemistry. Never a dull moment.

Ehhh you must be a niner or panther fan. Was a standard episode

I liked this guy just based on how he played the game, but now that I've heard him talk in this setting. Wow, he really is an awesome guy!

[@kingskinnypimp2363]

I've never heard him talk outside of a NFL press setting. He's definitely one of the boys!

[@ws8061]

Yeah it's an interesting view football fans don't always necessarily get to see. I'm a huge MMA fan and I've thought for a long time NFL could take some notes from UFC and how they do their embedded's and countdowns for fight week and constantly get fan favorites involved with media and really give a different side of fighters and display their personality. Seems like NFL is catching on though and not attacking any independent show they can and instead working with them and encouraging more eyes however they can get them and also branching out and partnering with big streaming platforms to show us behind the scenes to see the process and get a look at the players beyond just on the field and stale pressers. I love to talk shit about Goodell but this has been a pretty obvious pivot the last few years and it's really smart IMO just as a fan of both MMA and NFL. Like who watched hard knocks with Detroit and wasn't kinda pulling for those guys this year? I could normally care less about Detroit. The UFC has done that exact thing well for a decade.

CMC described exactly the appeal to this show and why I consume it. The smallest peak inside of thr NFL locker room.

[@krb0123]

CMC is one of the few exceptions to the saying "don't meet your heroes because you'll be disappointed" . What a solid fucking dude

[@NaturalAnimalKG]

This was solid boys. Ive lived in Colorado for almost 10 years and the McCaffreys are legends, cool to see CMC down to earth and one of the boys!

[@bobby_D]

This was a really good one. I agree.

[@ws8061]

This podcast is great, even as a Panthers fan I've never seen anything where CMC is this laid back and open.

it’s looking even better this year!🙏🏽

Feel like Christian is like a tier 1 Opperator in a another life. Just got that vibe to him

[@Calzaghe83]

Dude is a stud.

[@Orinveidt]

The boys always getting me through my Tuesday office day at the job 🤘🏻

[@JordanBeemMusic]

I was at the Stanford/Iowa Rose Bowl game when this guy absolutely shredded us from the first play of the game. I’ve never seen anyone take over a game to that extent in my life. It’s not a shock that he’s doing it in the NFL. Dudes an all-time legend.

[@mozeeyyy]

he really is. that game was so god damn legendary. NO ONE could touch him at all that day

[@danfloyd2997]

As a Panther I felt like leaving the franchise when we traded him, great player, person and role model, complete professional. I'm happy he went to San Fran as he deserves success and I think he'll get him a Superbowl ring with the Niners. Another great guest and show, keep on bussin em out boys, cheers.

[@bobby_D]

Agreed

As a niner fan we in debt to you guys and we will make sure he thrives here, we shall return the favor in the future to come

[@brookeb452]

Thankful for the Boys for this one! Explaining his mindset and how his dad taught him how to control his emotions totally lines up with how he is on the field. A smile is rare, all business. No big TD celebration, it’s always a ‘back to work’ mentality. Hope you bring him back, maybe him and Kittle?! ❤

[@chrisputnam4163]

Kittle paired with these 2 would be a hell of an episode. Probably piss my pants laughing by the end of it. Lol

[@CheeseLover23]

As a lifelong Panther fan, I think I speak for most of us when I say that we were all pretty devastated when he got traded but in a weird way we appreciated him so much as a fan base that we were happy for him to go to a team with a competent staff that was a true contender.

[@tommygo49ers]

Couldn't be more thrilled as a Niner Die hard to have CMC!

[@BallerLifestyle24]

CMC is such a stud. Genuine and hard working cat, was awesome hearing his vulnerability on the pod. Big fan!

[@lukasbirmingham2315]

Big time Eagles fan love CMac honestly, wish the NFC Championship could've been a more fair fight. Loved watching ol #5 at Stanford, the last time I could genuinely root for a specific college team. Shoutout the boys!

[@rasolujimi]

Thanks for this interview, CMC took the Niners to the next level. We will be back next year

The “missing the boys” atmosphere is the same as being in the military. Especially the Infantry. I keep in touch with guys I served with and that’s all we talk about is missing being together, the brotherhood and comradery

One of my Favorite interviews the boys never fail

Just subbed. Coming from bad friends pod!! Niner fan here!! You guys were funny on BF pod, nice improv guys. Gonna watch all your episodes!

damn dude you saw it before everyone else

[@thajoker2002]

@@mozeeyyy ya we followed McCaffrey closely ever since we seen him play at Valor. Watching him at Stanford was fun also and we saw how good he was but never expected him to become a better NFL player than his father was. Truly fun to watch every week knowing he grew up down the street.
