Well Julian was part of the greatest dynasty in football and Dana's favorite team so obviously he's gonna do it , clowns like Howie Mandel don't deserve Dana's time .
If its possible I have become a bigger Edelman fan since he retired. Probably a combination of appreciating more how he played and getting to know him through podcasts. On a side note, it is impossible for Edelman to mention something Belichick said without impersonating him, and I love it😂
Big Pats since the 1970’s have seen many good players over the years.The catch in the Atlanta Falcons S.B. by Edelman was the best clutch play ever. Thanks for the memorie!
I started watching the Patriots right after Brady came in and he was my all time favorite player but after SB 49 Edelman took that favorite spot, He showed so much work and determination that I just loved to watch and being a shorter guy myself that just made it even better. #ForeveraPatriot
It's funny that he mentions not being able to walk before that Seattle game but then he went out and hit his career high for receiving yards in a game. Animal.
Interesting to hear Julian say that he felt like he accomplished more than he thought he would be able to. Somehow he managed to be confident enough to go beyond whenever he stepped on the field. In my mind, he deserves to be in the hall of fame.
Edelman is clearly a guy with a healthy dose of realistic self-awareness. He recognized it was time to hang it up and made the wise decision to do so with his health intact. He is still a very young guy with plenty of runway to start building the next chapter of his life. Too many guys try to hang on for way too long either because of poor financial decisions or because their entire identity and self-worth is tied to their sports career so they can't accept the reality of not being a "star" anymore. There is a limited window of time within which to maximize your earnings before your body breaks down, or when there is simply another young prospect who is younger, stronger, faster who comes along to replace you. Such is the reality of pro sports. Accept it for what it is, which is temporary, and enjoy the ride while putting aside some of the rewards for life after sports which (hopefully) will be much longer than the time spent playing the sport. All the best to Julian for a happy, fulfilling post-football life.
He had injuries stacked yes, but I really feel like he did NOT like Cam. Cam was always asking Jules that year why he was in such a bad mood, and Jules would just say I am a grumpy guy...which he's not. Going from Tom Brady mentality led team to a goof, washed Cam is a huge culture change that I don't think Jules was feeling at all. Just my opinion though.
He probably hated the fact that Scam Newton couldn’t read a defence if his life depended on it, and didn’t want to get mauled blocking for his sorry a55. With Brady, he knew exactly what to expect each and every play.
Jules wasn't the most talented but he had heart, dedication & discipline‼That fades faster than pure talent & along with injuries his time was up‼Put him in the HOF‼
This kid was one of the best things that ever happened to the Patriots. I just had a feeling from day one, that this kid was just a special athlete. There should be no doubt that he is a hall of famer.
Two Legends right here. You guys have excellent natural chemistry, should do this as regularly as possible! Thanks Jules. One of the best to root for, EVER!!!! Edit: The catches you made bro...😮 Warrior. 🙏 Go Pats.
Julian Edelman is a HALL OF FAMER. Super Bowl MVP and arguably the best post season wide receiver to ever play. Made the greatest catch in NFL history and was a key piece of THREE Super Bowl victories. Will never forget.
@@knightsfb32So is that all the HOF is stats. If the HOF is all about state being second to Jerry Rice in the postseason deserves a HOF honor in my book. Wes Welker was great but he couldn't finish the job that's the difference between him and Edelman, not to mention Edelman is a Superbowl MVP. Only 8 receivers have won a Superbowl MVP and Edelman is one of them.
@@yyynbbggsage7398 definitely wrong here. Edelman was a great football player. That’s why he went pro. You think just anyone can switch positions and learn WR in the pros? Lmfao. You just hate him cuz he’s white and a winner.
Huge pats fan over the Brady dynasty. Lots of great memories for him and his family! I wouldn’t be surprised if he actually was stoked to do this and just to chat it it up with Edelman tbh
Julian literally pushed every bit of his body and probably could’ve played another season with the Bucs but I’m glad he didn’t….it killed me when Gronk and Brady did
As a lifelong Seahawks fan, we had it good with LOB and BeastMode. Russ wasn't it, though. For all the hype/chip on his shoulder talk, Super Bowl XLIX exploited him, rightfully so too. Him calling that audible with the Lombardi on the line, knowing EVERY other player and coach was expecting BeastMode there? Yep, that was his nail in the coffin as a Seahawks QB. The fact it took nearly 10yrs to finally rid ourselves of him? Far too long. Brady always understood what was at stake and to put team above himself. Russ never had that POV.
Not many top players have done this, retire while they are ahead. Andrew Luck was going to be one of the best we have seen in our generation, but because of the constant injuries, then the work it takes to recover, he did not want to stay in that cycle. He got out before he was crippled. Props to Julian for knowing it was time.
Naw it was the perfect time to go. Brady was gone the team wasn't going anywhere,a first round loss was as good as it gets nowadays. He got rings and legendary SB performances there's nothing left to prove. Just glad I was here to see every snap what a time to be alive
I am not sure people see this. They money is so big now, that good players, like Edelman, have $10, $15 million in the bank. Subconsciously he is asking himself, do I really want to go through training camp, work my ass off, and take big hits in games? There are a lot of players who subconsciously say 'no' to themselves.
Anyone ever see the Edelman utube video on retirement: He walked on the field at Gillette pulled out his flip phone said "I'm done here, beam me up scotty" and a big transport beam came down and he vaporatized. Great video if you could find it - I am sure it's still on utube.
@@JaneDoey actually I said he wasn't the biggest...he was 5'10". Average WR is over 6'. He had a 4.52 40. Which is also not even close to the Fastest. So I gave you facts. I also stated despite this he was my favorite WR. But he did have quickness and smarts and fawking HEART. Is that better for ya bonehead
@@thepeddle The 40 isn't everything Jerry Rice ran 40 in 4.6 he was very fast on the field There is a reason why Julian was made a punt returner he was very fast on the field btw Julian had a very fast time in 3 cone drill
If he had pushed it, he might’ve gotten hurt badly in a way that was life altering. He looks healthy and like he’s still training in some form(s) and a lot of guys can’t say the same.
After working with the GOAT TB and getting physically beat up by the defense, there is not much incentive to be on a second rate team and endure more pain for a coach who has passed his peak?
You left it all on the field Julien. The way you came back from the injury was impressive. In this league guys are trying to make a name for themselves. It was the right call to walk off into the sunset. 12 seasons. Amazing career.
Love welker and thought he would never be replaced …. BOOOOY was I wrong about that non sense I was thinking… Edelman not only replaced welker he made me forget about him sometimes 😂 Both legends tho😂
As a New Englander . Thanks for everything Julian . So many great memories .
As a ravens fan, yall ruined the first 20 years of my life😂😂😂
Agree 💯!!!!!!!

Hard-core TRUTH told by a great player who had a great career and knew when to leave the game respectfully on his OWN terms.
Jules your book Relentless has helped me out in so many ways. Thanks for everything you did for the Pats and me.
As a falcons fan I have nothing but admiration and respect for Julian. Seems like a good dude who got the absolute most out of his god given talent.
Tough competitor. Huge respect for Jules.
Dana obviously respects Julian because last I saw he wasn’t doing anymore podcasts!
He's just not doing woke podcasts. Like Howie Mandel.
Well Julian was part of the greatest dynasty in football and Dana's favorite team so obviously he's gonna do it , clowns like Howie Mandel don't deserve Dana's time .
I'm convinced it was a work to boost howies podcast
@@b.shaffer2580that was a skit 😂
@bojan1999
Was it? Oh well. Guess Dana and Howie can share a Bud Light together.

Gotta love this guy. 2 Bay Area guys made history out in New England... You did it brother.
Always enjoyed Edelman's play. He gave it all and you knew he would. Pleasure watching you !!!!
Replacing walker he exceeded expectations. So clutch in our playoffs runs . Such a force 🔑
My favorite player ever
… Welker?
Great perspective. Thanks Jules !!

the nfl channel runs a program called football life , his episode is fascinating. check it out if you haven't seen it yet
Thanks Jules, you will always be a NE legend and loved by the entire region. Take care
I love hearing Jules talked about football. He has such a good mindset and has a tremendous future 👏 thanks for the podcast OG!
Total respect, Julian. Love you!
Julian went out a champ. Gave every single lil white kid hope. Our Kent guy!!
Now mccaffrey and cooper Dejean are carrying the mantel of white athleticism 😂
It's funny that he mentions not being able to walk before that Seattle game but then he went out and hit his career high for receiving yards in a game. Animal.
Lifetime colt fan but I gotta subscribe. The content is too good
Julian is a DAWG!
Pound for pound nobody was tougher than Julian Edelman.
Interesting to hear Julian say that he felt like he accomplished more than he thought he would be able to. Somehow he managed to be confident enough to go beyond whenever he stepped on the field.
In my mind, he deserves to be in the hall of fame.
He truly fought to be where he is !!! Hard work, determination, and dedication !!! What a beast !!!
The Patriots definitely need the next Julian Edleman asap. Need that hard nose player not afraid to go over the middle for a big 3rd down conversion.

I think the same can be said about dealing with a Bradyless Belichick . Wasn’t as fun anymore dealing with the coach without the winning of Brady.
He probably hated the fact that Scam Newton couldn’t read a defence if his life depended on it, and didn’t want to get mauled blocking for his sorry a55. With Brady, he knew exactly what to expect each and every play.
Giants fan..but total respect for Edelnut!!!!
Thanks for all the memories bubs
“I didn’t miss it until my body felt good!” I know that feeling! Thank you Jules!
Personally, I think he is a hall of famer. In that system, when it was the biggest moment, when it mattered...he was always clutch
Edlenut was that dude 🤘
Jules wasn't the most talented but he had heart, dedication & discipline‼That fades faster than pure talent & along with injuries his time was up‼Put him in the HOF‼
He's a superbowl MVP and one of the most reliable receivers in the Patriots Era. To say he isn't great is ridiculous.
@@Pjwalther9k No one said he wasn't great‼He also had the greatest QB of all time throwing to him‼
@quentincrisp6933 never seen him catch a pass from Joe Montana ;)
@@Pjwalther9k Correct‼Because Montana is now third on the list of the greatest N.F.L. QB's‼🤔
I have spent years loathing this dude...i can't do that anymore...he embodies what the NFL should be.
As an athelete, when ur young ur body is resilient but after injuries on top of injuries takes a toll on ur body.
Grew up a diehard colts fan and was absolutely terrified of this guy every time we played him. Love his show now, but he was Mr 3rd down.
Always humble, mr. clutch!
Jules gave it all. Respect.

He's on the nelk boys podcasts all the time
He gave us everything he had as a player! Simply the best I have ever seen!
Respect to JULIAN that nasty beautiful catch 🪝
Bill “don’t be calling me” 😂😂
I felt the same way before I retired from the military, I am so broken if I wake up not in pain…….I died
Julian literally pushed every bit of his body and probably could’ve played another season with the Bucs but I’m glad he didn’t….it killed me when Gronk and Brady did
Heartbreaking when I heard he retired. I could see him not playing at the same level, but I believe he could have come back and been even better!
I was sad Julian retired. But I agree, It was the right time. Foxborough forever!
As a lifelong Seahawks fan, we had it good with LOB and BeastMode. Russ wasn't it, though.

It's not an Edelnut clip without a Belicheck impersonation 🤣

You da man Jules.
Thanks for the many good years of football
i was so surprised he didnt go down to tampa with tom and gronk
The emotional spark for the team when the chips were down.
Dana doesn’t have time but you can see he would be a great podcaster/ interviewer.
If he had pushed it, he might’ve gotten hurt badly in a way that was life altering. He looks healthy and like he’s still training in some form(s) and a lot of guys can’t say the same.
I thought he wasn’t doing podcast any more
Pats Nation loves you buddy !
Thank you for being vulnerable.. and a real man Edelman.. you a true warrior.. hated you winning with pats tho.. 😂
Thanks Jules the man
He's 100% right
Julian mad when mac got run over by Jones for the TD win was epic. Dude is a true competitor
Edel-Nut set my hot tub at 103… get me a Gatorade and don’t fook it up
…. Lol….

Aside from Brady, Jules is my all time favorite player.
Listen here edelnut thank you for retiring !!! Enjoy life and good luck to ya
One of the few remaining Reebok players left
I still wish he would’ve gone and joined Brady and Gronk in Tampa😭😭

What was the reason

isnt this a "podcast"?
