Now I understand that a lot of famous athletes who know Ed Reed keep their distance from him. He will tell them straight up what they are doing wrong and tell them the truth they don't want to hear.
Greatest safety to ever play the game. Ints, sacks, and his special teams work is so underrated. A true student of the game,the brains, the attitude and the physical gifts
We need more Ed Reeds in this world. We all know that he's one of the best safeties ever, but more importantly are his beliefs and respect for people. Thank God for all 4 of his parents and everyone else who helped mold him into the man that he is. GO RAVENS!
Way more than just a story about a strong father. Ed needed a person from the school to literally help him pass high school. You don’t think it shows how those communities are so underfunded that typically a family/school can’t even push their kid to pass school. Dude talked about how his parents literally couldn’t be there cause they had to be gone all the time to just to provide
Indeed. He was also blessed to have some key people in his community circle that that stepped in to help him reach his potential. Sometimes it takes a village. Something was instilled in Ed Reed that gave him the drive and ambition to achieve and get past these obstacles. He could have easily taken a path into another way of life. Underfunding? That opens up a whole new conversation. Who is in charge of allocating funds, where does the money go in these towns and cities? @@milesleslie8084
Lifelong Steelers fan here; I always always loved watching Ed reed battle the Steelers. Epic memories. Outstanding interview Mr buck! All the best to Ed reed in the future.
Same dude. Steeler for 20+ yrs and man i *HATED* those Ravens teams with Ray Lewis & Terrell Suggs. Circa 2008-2012 the absolute height of the Ravens/Steelers rivalry. But i always *ALWAYS* ahd mad respect for Ed Reed. Why? He wasnt a showoff or loudmouth like Lewis or Suggs. Dude just quietly went about his business and he did business right!!! Him and Troy Polamalu are the living embodiment of *KEN & RYU from STREETFIGHTER* cuz are virtually one and the same. Ed's a better deeper ball hawk than Troy is tho. Lol
@@leonardobraynen1524 I’d compare reed to Rod Woodson more than Troy. But all I three would be top 10 all time d backs. No question. Pittsburgh fans have always loved watching great d.
Stealers Ravens battles were epic I couldn't stand that loudmouth Joey Porter or the cheap shot artist Hines Ward. That’s not just my opinion he was voted “ The dirtiest player in the NFL by his peers” other players in the league during his era said that about him
Ravens fan here. My hatred for the Steelers is great. My respect for the Steelers is greater. Hatred and respect go hand and hand when that which you hate/respect is great at what they do. That rivalry will go done as a top 3 rivalry of all time. Troy and Reed in the defensive backfield, man, to have seen that?!
What a great man, person and a amazing athlete and such personality. Thanks to people that helped him as a kid and giving us a chance to watch him. ED Reed is a hall of fame player and person.
This is a great man! Didn’t get to see every side of him when he was playing but since retiring, can see just how truly great he is not just at football, but as a human and a man
Ed is my favorite Raven by a longshot. 52 is obviously legend but there was nothing like watching Reed pick the ball and flow up the field like water. My all black #20 is the only jersey i'll wear.
I said wow on another amazing interview but this one is unreal. It's a least a double wow. 2 great man talking about life and putting it all out there. Mr. Reed is not just a great football player, he is very intelligent, insightful, and caring. He is right about conspiracies in this country, they aren't just conspiracies. Love that guy just from this interview! I am just a little old Kansas guy, but always wanted to do big things and never gave myself the chance. Now I am seeing what I missed out on.
So, I just wanna say, THANK YOU, for this show, I enjoy listening to some of the real stories from some of these guys. When I watched the games and listened to the radio stations or see the ESPN stuff, you only get what they want us to hear and see. In this platform some stuff is gonna come out that we didn't know and as long as they keep it real...I LOVE IT. I have watch Ed Reed play his whole career from my couch in philly as an Eagles Fan...and I am a bigger fan now of Ed Reed, because of the REAL Talk he put out there. Mr Reed, I wanna thank you and as a player well not many better and now leading other young men toward there goals absolutely awesome. keep up the great work and God Bless.
Steelers fan here, mad respect for the Ravens organization and ED. My favorite player is Troy Polamalu and he and Ed Reed where obviously two of the GREATS Those divisional games back then were the football version of a blood bath!!!!
Living a full life, brings emotion recollection. A life well lived. Nice that Mr Reed recognizes, where he came from and those that helped along the way.
The letter didn’t unlock anything, the hard work, the dedication, the vision unlocked his future. He asked why is it so hard are you trying to make us fail? No, that test is the same for everyone, everyone has to work for it, every successful person toiles in private to become a success.
I'm 56, been a Steeler fan since "75". However, I'm a football fan 1st. Ed and Troy were like beasts of the AFC North as well as league wide. He's truly one of my favorites
This is a truly beautiful story. This is a total inspirational story. Just like his road dog Ray Lewis. Two great men. Leaders. Just goes to show that the U can turn out some great people.
@@bgb946I’m also a Cowboys fan and yeah the early out per usual. But they are still the most valuable sports team on the planet, so I would say they good. Ed Reed is my favorite DB all time
Wonderful interview. A part of the interview that I hope doesn’t go unnoticed, is when Ed talks about doing things as little as picking up your trash. Those little things add up to the big things.
I’m so happy for Ed! Great all around leader and even better man. Never makes excuses…..just does what he needs too. All World Talent! Outside of Deion Sanders, the only other player that all quarterbacks feared.
I got to watch Ed and the 2001 Hurricanes obliterate my FSU squad in Tallahassee. In typical Ed fashion, he had 2 picks and blocked a punt recovered for a MIA TD. I think he got his fingertips on a couple other tipped passes too. It was obvious that even then, he had an uncanny knack for being around the ball, and I kept wondering "who the hell is that Reed guy?" At the time, I was fuming about the loss, but in hindsight, I'm really glad I got to see that game, because I got to watch the greatest safety of all time play football.
I’ve always seen Ed since his Miami days, but never understood him until watching this interview. Not only an exceptional athlete, a leader by example, a pro football hall of famer…but the intellectual side shown here shows what drove him. Very impressive man, outstanding interview by Joe Buck.
This man is one of the best, he signed my grandsons jersey at age five,now he’s nineteen. Thanks Mr. Reed again. 👏🏽👏🏽 From Baltimore, Maryland.
My grandsons signed in Westminster also.
“When you've studied and done your due diligence trust it”. Love that quote. Mad respect to this man!
Now I understand that a lot of famous athletes who know Ed Reed keep their distance from him. He will tell them straight up what they are doing wrong and tell them the truth they don't want to hear.
At his HOF speech, notice his attire….he also tried to speak on certain things in his speech and they muted his mic, I believe….

Ed Reed was blessed to have a strong father figure at home. I think his world would be a better place with more families like his.

The world that was created by the dominant society, that destroyed his community.
I respect this man more than i already did. Great player, but greater man. 🙌🏼

Kids today will never understand what we got to witness growing up the NFL before 2016 was different
I consider myself lucky to have been able to watch his entire college n pro career. Game changer!
He's one of the best!
Dam..!! Ed Reed...This guy is something special.
The Honesty. The insight. The Talent. The Laughs
You Hall of Fame , in my book. 🏆 #1
I saw every game he has played since college. He is what being a hurricane is all about

Wore my Ed Reed jersey during the first half against Houston. Tied 10 to 10. Switched to my Anquan Bolden and we won 34-10
I have weird superstition where I can't where a Jersey during the game lmao
Every interview gets better and better....
Great job, Joe and team!
The absolute best interview so far, wow 👏🏾. Amazing GOAT Ed Reed!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ed Reed is a real one. Bethune Cookman lost out big. What an impact he would've made on those young men.
I've been watching the game for 60 years Old Raiders and Patriots fan. Ed Reed Top 7
Thank God for Ed Reed - tremendous competitor.
THE BALL HAWK!! and an even better human.thanks Ed

Fire 🔥 interview, thanks to both Gentlemen
Ed I watched you on Sundays and said to myself. That’s a once in a generation player. I modeled my game after you and prime! Well done sir!
Damn. I always loved Ed. I didn’t know my boy was this charming. W interview for sure.
This is the humility I’ve been wanting to hear from pro athletes…
Many act like they had no help and that the rest of us are dirt beneath their feet
Ion no what athletes u been watchin
Ed Reed has always fascinated me. This interview did not disappoint.
Ed Reed greatest safety of all time!
Reed, Ray, Flacco. My favs. Reed is a generational talent. His and Ray's film study was top notch.
Idk if it’s bc I’m from New Orleans or because he is so deep I love hearing ed reed talk ! No bullshit just the truth
Living a full life, brings emotion recollection. A life well lived. Nice that Mr Reed recognizes, where he came from and those that helped along the way.
Ed Reed is the GOAT!! I hope he gets back into coaching college football!
How do I miss those Miami Hurricanes teams..........best college team ever, so many first rounders and Hall of Famers
That hug with Belichick tells you everything you need to know 🔥🙌🏿✊🏿
They did excellent with this interview
I really enjoyed this interview with one of the best Safeties I ever seen.
Gaming we are here for you congratulations on almost 1k. This is what cowboy nation does we support all Nu Media cowboy creators.
Steelers fan here but always loved and respected Ed Reed 1 of the best to ever do it 💯
Never knew his story. He's awesome. 😊

Unbelievable respect for this man. I’ve always respected his ability, but I really respect his work ethic, and his mindset.
I’m 36 and my friends still call me Ed Reed. The only celebrity I fan over. #20 HOF
Got the pleasure of meeting ed the other day he’s the same nice guy in this interview
My Number 1 Favorite Player of All-Time is Ed Reed

It's one of the things Coach Prime insists on when guiding the Colorado Buffs football team.
Wow, I didn’t know anything about Ed other then he was a great player. Now I know he’s a great human being!
Ball Hawk ❤ man I love watching his highlights
Fantastic Interview Coming to you from St. Louis
One of THE TOP2 Safety iin NFL history. Ed Reed was a true ball hawk. Truly the last line of defense for The Ravens
Who's number 1, D Sanders?
@@dajay2kDeion is a cornerback
@dipset22554 thanks man. I'm from London, learning the game!
@@dajay2k Ronnie Lott. Look him up.
@@dajay2k he’s definitely one of the greats so good start knowing him lol.
I’m so happy for Ed! Great all around leader and even better man. Never makes excuses…..just does what he needs too. All World Talent! Outside of Deion Sanders, the only other player that all quarterbacks feared.
We are one beautiful Ed Reed is the goat of the nfl under appreciated
Greatest interview that I have ever experienced and watched
A man amongst boys who wanted to show everyone the right way
By far the greatest ball hawk safety of all time...Just pissed he played in my division 🐯🐅🐯🐅
Everyone needs to hear this!
Awesome interview! I learned so much about this person and myself. Continue blessings Mr. Ed Reed.

Speaking of ACT test .. I was a prop 48 it was devastating
One of my favorite players! As a die nasty Patty;) respect and love BAL

Nothing else to say except WELL DONE
