  • WR1: Steve Smith Sr.
    Dec 23 2021
    One of the toughest wide receivers in the history of the NFL and one of the most electric is without a doubt Steve Smith Sr. Cris makes it abundantly clear that Steve is bound for the Hall Of Fame in his opinion, but Cris starts off by getting into his legacy off the field, with The Steve Smith Family Foundation. They then discuss what it means to be a good teammate and who Steve believes embodies that. Smith drops some truth bombs on how he was in the league, and what he has been working on since to repair some relationships off of the field. To finish off the show, Cris and Steve talk about the wonderful feeling of being recognized and just being nominated for the Hall. ⏰ Chapters ⏰ (00:00) INTRO: Steve Smith Sr. (02:10) The Steve Smith Family Foundation (08:45) Favorite Teammates and What Makes A Good Teammate (18:20) Trying Your Absolute Best And Working On Self (22:10) Housing In Charlotte (25:09) Cris’ Mother (26:28) Hall Of Fame Finalist (31:44) OUTRO 🔊 LISTEN ON 🔊 ► iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... ► Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0w5hhHR... #WR1Podcast #BlueWire Learn more about your ad choices.

  • WR1: Keenan Allen
    Nov 18 2021
    Keenan Allen Is one of the most consistent and efficient players in both his output as an NFL wide receiver and in his ability to stay regimented. Keenan was not always a wide receiver. Cris walks us through how Nick Saban wanted Keenan to join Alabama as a Safety and how his brother, a QB, led him to the decision to go to Cal and make the switch to Wide Receiver. Cris also dives deep into Keenan’s family life and how losing his father could’ve been a massive detriment to his development as a man and player, but something beautiful came from tragedy. Keenan was disrespected in the NFL draft, going in round 3. Cris talks about how that can be a great motivator and Allen describes just that in how he has developed as a player with a “chip on his shoulder.” Cris takes it to the NFL today. Who are Keenan’s WR role models and what having a gun slinger like Justin Herbert and a leader like Brandon Staley. Cris loves Keenan’s mindset. They discuss how you stay consistent and become a journeyman in the NFL. Cris finishes off the show by getting into Keenan’s music prowess and endeavors outside of football and how the Chargers are going to put it together the rest of the season. ⏰ Chapters ⏰ (00:00) INTRO: Keenan Allen (02:20) Not always a WR (03:55) Going To Cal (04:55) Family Tragedy (07:23) Round 3 Draft Pick, But Pro Ready Receiver (08:40) WR role models (11:45) Paying It Forward (12:55) The Confidence In Justin Herbert (14:30) The Leadership Of Staley (15:13) Endeavors Outside Of Football (16:30) Staying Healthy (17:01) Respecting The Game And Staying Focused (19:37) Cooper Kupp Is On Fire (20:47) Philip Rivers Vs.
