Deion Sanders is on a mission to write his name in gridiron gold and has his two sons making sure they shine just as brightly, racking up back-to-back victories with not a single loss in sight. Now, having a Pro Football Hall of Famer dad has some benefits on its own, like having an MVP playbook handed down to you, both on and off the field.  

However, being gridiron legacy lads also means they have a VIP pass to football’s finest lessons from the entire football fraternity. Tom Brady, the sage quarterback, dropped some serious pigskin pearls of wisdom on young Shedeur, and it was nothing short of legendary!

What do you get when you put three gridiron giants in one room? A goldmine of advice, a time-traveling journey down NFL memory lane, and an exclusive pass to the locker room banter. And that’s the play-by-play of what went down when the Sanders duo– Coach Prime and young gun Shedeur – teamed up with Brady, the GOAT himself as well as Jim Gray and Larry Fitzgerald on their ‘Let’s Go!‘ podcast earlier this week.

 The trio spoke at length about their personal relationship and how that impacted training a legacy QB. Speaking of top-notch training, the 7X Super Bowl MVP lent a helping hand to Coach Prime’s mission to mold Shedeur into a gridiron maestro. Speaking to Shedeur, Brady said, “We were out there for one reason- to win.” “Mike Tyson, Kobe Bryant, they weren’t trying to make friends.” 

He went on to add, “I love when I see other people like that – I relate to them more than guys hugging on the field pre-game” “Man get that out of here, that’s a bunch of bull**it”

Furthermore, the former Patriot even name-dropped various sports world legends like Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and many more; stating that all of them did not step into their respective arenas to make friends. They came for the competition and to win it. Well, for a potential NFL starting QB it sure is some solid advice! Maybe this advice can help continue the winning streak the Buffs currently boast

Results don’t lie: Buffs on a winning streak

Later on, in the podcast, Shedeur talked about what he called a ‘Brady moment’, while Sanders senior spoke about ‌how the arrival of Shedeur in the Buffs changed the entire selection process of the team, and they had to adopt recruiting and filling out it’s skill positions. And so far, the results are speaking for themselves.

Currently, the Sanders duo and the Buffs are rolling into Eugene, Oregon, ready to take on the mighty Oregon Ducks after seeing their last three opponents kiss the turf. Considering Prime Time’s track record after moving to UCB, it’s tempting to think we’ve got this one in the bag but, in football, the thrill of the clash lies in the unknown.
