Eric Dickerson, The NFL's most iconic running back, joins The Pivot for a legendary conversation talking the Pony Express scandal, SMU's football death sentence, his NFL career and current running backs in the league today. The LA Rams hosted Channing, Fred and Ryan in the "Rams" Hollywood House for an evening of great conversation and memorable moments.
Wasting no time, Ryan and Channing get right into Dickerson's days at SMU and the money scandals that followed him and his college teammates during that time and the infamous Trans Am story. Sharing what really transpired back then, Eric opens up about how all of that really played out and how it has affected his legacy.
Fred talks the skill set of the NFL running back position during Eric's playing days and asks him who the #2 and #3 Rams running backs are in history and who the top 5 current backs today.
Considering himself a Ram for life, the foursome discuss how Dickerson never wanted to play for another team, the current Rams roster with recent super bowl run and what really went on with the talked about ticket situation with Dickerson's seats.

My stepdad helped Eric Dickerson change his flat tire on his Porsche 911 right outside of the big A stadium in Anaheim 1985. I was 6 years old and he shook my hand and gave me his autograph. I framed it and still have it..
DOPE
Great story .. 👏
🧢
That’s tremendous! What a memory
@@benicenoobs1378 foh nerd
I’m gonna say it again. It’s always the old legend’s man that have the best stories and conversations. Their love for the game is so pure man. Sap, Barkley, Haley, Dickerson, O’Neal are the best episodes
Especially bc they're at the age where they can tell us all the details
I enjoyed Alex Rodriguez talk about business
Rick Flair to
I could do without Sapp on your list. I didn't watch that episode. Sapp is a dirtbag.
@Michael Jurek IMO It's not the money, it has to do with the fact that the game was dramatically different in its application of violence. Case in point, ED casually brought up eye gouging was a common thing during his era. Well... 25 years before that the applied violence was even worse. MLB was the only major sport that until recently was in essence the same game it was 100 years prior.
Man if I look like Eric Dickerson at that age I’ll be grateful dude looks like he’s fit and doing well
Yes Pivot!!!! This is going to be epic! Thee Eric Dickerson is in the house!!! Iconic! Great questions and great interview Pivot!
To Fred: with or without the HOF, you're verified and validated, and not that you needed it, your body of work speaks for itself. IYKYK!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
facts
You're right about that, the brother is a critical thinker and I love the questions he always ask. This brother Fred Taylor is brilliant.
@@1Nubien Absolutely! The dynamic between Channing, Fred and RC, is off the charts. You see the respect they have for each other, and that contributes to the great content.
FACTS!!!
I have never seen excellence as consistent as these interviews (conversations) in any media. Now just always good always great.
💯🎯💯
100% Agree
.
I agree. These guys ain't doing the silly shit you see on the Disney or Fox sports networks. I stopped watching those shows because I hungered for these types of discussions. And, truthfully, I'm glad because UA-cam is a platform more conducive to the type of vibe I want to see in these types of interviews/discussions.
I worked with a guy at Sam's Club who played for the Denver Broncos who told a vivid ED story.
Him: I was a LB . 240...10% body fat. ED came in the hole on time, I got low. I hit him at the 50 and I woke up 10yds later and he was still running.
😂😂😂😂
Mr. Dickerson is THE MAN, the MYTH, the LEGEND. I was happy I got to see him play, he had a certain style of running that was a pleasure to watch. That man was on some other level in his prime.
Pivot with no misses once again! Would love to see Shannon Sharpe as a guest, then see y'all three as guests on Club Shay Shay🏁
This needs to happen
Agreed 100 percent
To RC, Channing & Fred you guys have the best podcast on UA-cam always good content always good guest keep it up guys. 👍
Facts not fiction
Never lied
Agreed!
Facts!
The best podcast out
Eric Dickerson, should be a GM with the knowledge 🔥
He said he knows RB's. I doubt he should be a GM.
no dummy he said he's a RB guru not a damn GM guru jeezus
@@kobeplayeddefensetoo1351 so he knows the game! might be better than some of these gm’s today
@@chapellebr9603 You could be right.
I've always thought that he was a brilliant football player. His contract negotiations, while harsh when it was happening, set the tone for getting players paid what they were worth. It was criminal how the Rams paid him. I love his interviews. Just a smart humble guy.
Just when I thought the last episode was my favorite, you guys raise the bar. The Pony Express was my favorite 30 for 30. But Eric is so much more than that moment. He is a great human being. And he's aging so gracefully. Great job guys.
This show the Pivot will stand the test of time
It’s amazing that running backs like ED, OJ, Walter Payton, Barry Sanders, and a few others were able to run the ball at a time when the running game was the first option and despite never having a decent QB to keep defenses from putting 8-9 in the box.
Barry's situation was even worse because his line didn't block😂
Great observation!!!
It don’t get no better than this interview
Eric Dickerson is a class act. Eric Dickerson #29 will never be forgotten.
Can't even watch that other
show anymore. Y'all are the best in the business. Inspirational on every level.. E D is a true role model. Next level OG knowledge.. Big up The Pivot!!
SAME
" I tell ya, them goggles wasn't sweet" Channing Crowder 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The epitome of class, grace, professionalism and just a flat out DOG back in the day! Salute on another great one!
10 years from now when they reference super teams in podcasting we can only reference ‘THE PIVOT’ 💯🙌🏾
I like when they get a older player from the past on the pod. Get Lawrence Taylor next!
The pivot podcast is substantial to my life ❤️ 💙
Channing “ I couldn’t tackle him!” Lol 😂
I remember Fred Taylor and Florida played Florida State and they interviewed him after the game. He torched Florida State. Just a nice running back. I hope he gets in the Hall.
Is this you
LEGENDARY HOF INTERVIEW 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Love SMU and Dickerson’s loyalty to them
HE GOT PAID AND STILL REFUSES TO ADMIT IT, AFTER ALL THESE YEARS LATER!!
This man is a " NFL GREAT " reminds me of a calmer version of Deion Saunders. Much respect 🙏🏿
@@CoreyKing_2 Yes my yute 🙏🏿
Channing Crowder actually did a show and not talk down and dirty for once that's a first. The Pivot gets better and better every time I watch it .Keep up the great work guys the synergy with you all is great!
Respects the greatness
Exactly!
Yes he did. Channing asked if he kept his googles on with the LA girls that he met. 😄
Yeah and I didn’t like that tbh .. Channing need to be Channing that’s what makes the show great Fred and Ryan can be the serious guys
Prediction: This is gonna be 🔥. Eric is hilarious especially when I watch him on undisputed. I know Fred’s gonna be excited because that’s a 🐐 RB and Channing is gonna ask Eric some wild shit
You know Channing gone ask some wild shit 😂 🤦🏽♂️
Eric was a beast his first 2 years in the nfl he had 3,913 rushing yards and 32 rushing touchdowns that would be a decent CAREER for a nfl player lol
Man!!!! these podcasts are “all of it”. The guys have never had a bad episode. Thanks fellas for the greatness you’re delivering. I love to hear black men talking about great things. It makes me even more proud to be black
He’s so well spoken and articulate for a running back that played in 80s
Huh???
@@Bruss813 those rbs took so much damage to the head back then, he’s still in great shape is what he’s saying
yup especially compared to Hershel Walker
Hey education was very important to us back then. Like he said You have to represent your family
@@kymtaylor5890 surprising in the fact that he’s not insane / muddled in thought from the all CTE defenders were dishing out back then
Channing always with that one question that puts ear to ear smile on ya face "did you leave the goggles on"
The league and the direction of the NFL played a role in Barry Sanders retirement. Detroit would never trade Barry and couldn't build around him. Imagine Sanders in Dallas back then or team with dominant o line.👀👀👀💯 Dickerson was beast too!
Greatest Podcast Running!!! It's Authentic .. Effortlessly Done!!! Can We Get Bo Jackson Please!!! Storyline would be Impeccable!!! Would be thee 1st!
That would be great.
Please get Bo Jackson
Yes. Bo knows
This was a excellent episode, great conversation with a undisputed legend. Wish it was longer. Keep the heat coming Pivot🔥!
This was a great show. Eric is so smart and such a good person. The fact that he forgave that GM of the Rams speaks volumes of what kind of man he is. Truly a good person.
Damn ED was playing on the Scottie Pippen contract before Scottie Pippen 😂😂
This is the one that should of been 2 hours long ! Lol 😂 Great interview
ED is the best RB I've ever seen. Also smart, funny, and not afraid.
Thank you for letting your guests speak and not cut them off or talk over them like that other podcast.
…so true 😵💫
Dickerson is so right about eye glasses back then. They were really expensive and if you broke them it would take two or three weeks to get another pair. And did I say expensive! I got the cheapest frames they had back then and they were sorry. I'm talking the 1970's. I pay way less now for an eye exam and a pair of glasses then my parents paid back then. I know my glasses and exam cost at the least $100 dollars back then and now I can get an exam and glasses for less than that.
Agreed: I grew up with him & the conversation of glasses were a daily talk. Mine was worse than his (vision) lol. A lot of history 😂😂😂😂
Another one great show Eric Dickerson looks like he could still play
Another banger. Get the folks to 1 MILLION SUBS
Man I love seeing the greats on The Pivot! ED was one of my favorite running backs! My Top 5 as a kid in the 1980’s were Tony Dorsett, Eric Dickerson, Earl Campbell, Marcus Allen, Hershel Walker. Whenever they touched the ball.. Lookout 👀 😁 🏈 💯
Based on the thumbnail, looks like another classic
Raw and real content. It’s not so corporate as IAA. Love it
Classic already Erik always keep it 💯 I wouldn't be surprised if he do some recruiting this episode 😂😂 he always gonna rep the Rams brand
Excellence. The Pivot runs circles around the other podcasts because their overall Quality is Excellent.
I'm gonna need like 3 showes a week man, THIS IS THE BEST PODCAST HANDS DOWN.
Man this was a great interview..........Fred Taylor asks the best football questions. Just a brilliant interview.
Love this! My Pops was an ED fan and always talked about how he ran with the knees high and straight back. Dude was a beast
E.D as real as they come. Love watching his interviews.
ED... greatest Back that ever played..
ED was one of the best to ever do it! Great show- again!
The story tells from this man is A-1. Love it. His unique look on the turf was dope. He came from a great draft class and flawless career. Lets go PIVOT!!!
One of my favorite RB of all times
Always enjoyable love the way they let the guest get there story out.
Thanks guys for sharing with us your great show. It's always a great feeling to see our former professional players chilling and sitting around the same table to discuss and debate everything. Great interview guys.keep up the good job. Keep building black communities stronger and united.peace and be smart.
Dope show. But dont forget they get paid really good money to do it, so lets not act like they are just doing this for us. But either way, i love the show & the different personalities of the three mesh so damn good. And they are always prepared & professional(well except for channing at times hahhaaaa).
Yeah it’s official….best football podcast out rn. Second to none.
Another great show guys 🙆♀️. Y'all should bring Ja'Marcus Russell on too.
His smu recruiting stories are wild
I never miss y’all podcast best one out hands down
I’m a 65-year-old fan grew up watching Eric Dickerson I got to try it with the 49ers and 80 they drafted Earl Cooper another big back I don’t know what happened to them I just know I always watched Dickerson what a great interview what a great man I love his humility And his confidence and the guy was way underpaid. It makes me sick to think some of the players that are making the money they are today and these older players that were twice or three times. The players of these people are got so little but the one thing you can’t take away, his personality and Eric Dickerson is a class act.
Y’all gotta get LT next man. Pivot cutting up with interviews
Love this podcast so much better than I am athlete!! Y’all definitely Made the correct pivot with this one!!!
They do a good job of asking questions and getting out of their own way. Really enjoyable!
I could sit in a room all day long with these guys, and talk nothing but football. great episode fellas, please keep them flowing.
Now if Eric Dickerson play in today’s football that’s not even a question on me he will be the greatest running back we’ve ever seen in our life period..
Or would he be Derrick Henry?
@@kobeplayeddefensetoo1351 even better .. Derrick Henry doesn’t embrace contact like ED does
I'm from Trinidad and is a fan of the NFL tournament but been a fan with y'all since I saw y'all split form those guy's.....keep the great guests coming bringing their own nuggets from their experiences.......big up HAPPY DAD
Favorite OG running back ever! As a kid I used to look at old pics of him in that Rams uni…the goggles, jerri curl, neck brace; E was like a superhero to me based on how he ran the ball with style and grace. Real legend.
Man...great job fellas!
I'm loving how many guests the guys get to say great question..keep up the good work!!
Great Episode For Sure! I’m Dying For A Bo Jackson Episode!!!!
Love The Pivot.. Always Come In Clutch wid banger when I’m bored asf at crib or at work 🔥🔥🔥🔥😩😩❤️
I luv to hear the old school cats tell stories from back in the day. Warren Sapp might be one of the best storytellers hands down! Another great episode gents! Keep flying high! 💪🏾✊🏾🙏🏾
I can see the pivot just crushing it during the super bowl led up. 💯 Guest recommendation: 🥤 O.J. I can already see Channing asking the question everyone wants to know....😅
One of my childhood friends studied everything Eric Dickerson did on the field and actually ran like him
Man I love ED I remember my dad took me to Anaheim to see this dude run and damn he ran me a huge Rams fan for life to this day. Fellas thank you for having him on the show you brought up found memories of my childhood and again love you ED 🐏💛💙 I agree with ED I can’t stand those Niners too 😂🤣
I stayed up late Friday night to watch this interview. As always, another touchdown for The Pivot!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I see Eric Dickerson, I click. Can't miss a video with an old legend like this.
Eric Dickerson has always been a talented man..so much class, still handsome and in great shape. Thanks Pivot team this was perfect !. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
This was one of the best interviews I’ve seen on UA-cam! It’s was even more special cause I was a Eric Dickerson fan man that brother had style and flavor in his time. I was so pleased to him him speak with style and grace what a great man!👊🏾💯
You guys have a good mix of guests on the show and I enjoy watching. I would love to see you guys reach out to some of the older guys like Roger Craig, Victor Cruz, Jerry Rice, and Jackie Slater. Old school players.
This was a dope interview. This was a nice balance for the casual football fan and you don’t have to know all the stats to know ED was good and a good person that the hosts have a lotta respect for. Great job!
ANOTHER ONE..... You guys have been dropping Hits after hits. Love the podcast, content, and inspiration. Keep the work going. Much love and respect.
Shoutout to the pivot podcast yall always make sure to upload constantly every week and they never disappoint
This podcast makes me laugh every time! I enjoy the way that these men allow their guests to explain their stories and go through the timelines of their careers. I am truly proud of seeing these three men come together and discuss the different issues and topics that not everyone is willing to go into. I've learned so much from these podcasts that I look forward to them popping up on the feed. The talent that has come through here is pure excellence and I wish you all the best and the most success that comes from this podcast. May you all be blessed, along with your families and God be with you along every step.
I could talk Eric Dickerson all day..he so humble
Had a smile on my face from the moment Eric walked in the door. Big ED fan. Took a road trip to Cleveland and then hit a few when I lived in Cali. Love what he's doing these days to impact the younger guys.
You guys never let me down. 👏👏👏
When Eric said, the sad part about football when you no longer play for the love of the game. I know the feeling..*
ED is right about big RBs. I met Peyton Hillis once and he looks like a TE or LB, not a RB.
What a QUALITY GUY! Great running back, Great man.
I found out about Mr. Dickerson when I unlocked him in NFL Streetz 2😂😂
Yall doing your thing on the Pivot another epic episode 🏆💪🏾
That boy'z the Great Eric Dickerson simply the Best Back in my I ever seen . Gentleman I love your Podcast continue to Handle y'all's BUZZINESS. Much love to the Homies.👉🙏🙏✌️✌️🥂🔥👈.
I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say I feel like y'all don't drop enough interviews when in reality y'all do! Y'all just spoil us with great interviews man. The chemistry, the timing, the choice of guests. Just simplicity in it's best form. Thank you guys & the rest of the Pivot team! Literally love the dialogue & Channing crazy ass always have me on edge at the end. Always curious how each & every show is gonna end! Y'all be BLESSED!!!🙏🏿 Until the next one.
Im old enough to have watched these legendary players from the 80's in their prime. Dickerson was one of the best.
Me too. I actually remembered the game when Singletary clobbered ED once he told the story.
Love Eric! His game was great and his commentary is too ✊🏾
Man this episode was fire. Love you Fred T
Met ED here at a Rams and Browns Game in Cleveland. Most genuine person you'd ever want to meet and have a conversation with.
Mr. Eric Dickerson, Mr. Fred Taylor, Mr. Channing Crowder, & Mr. Ryan Clark, Thank you for your time. Mr. Eric Dickerson is in the discussion for the Best running back ever! If not the best running back ever.
