The following programme contains
strong language and adult humour.
2
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:14,560
Ten years ago, Rob Beckett and I met
on the comedy circuit,
3
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:16,200
and we've been friends ever since.
4
00:00:16,240 --> 00:00:18,680
I think we complement each other.
He's sad, I'm happy.
5
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,280
He'll always smile about things.
6
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,480
It's just a shame that
that smile is so punchable.
7
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:23,640
(LAUGHS)
8
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,960
Now, we're putting our friendship
to the test.
9
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,240
Why are we in this vehicle?
Bigger the better.
10
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:30,640
..as we travel the world together...
11
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,880
I'm gonna get out of here and smack
-your arse with this.
-Get out, then.
12
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,720
..to meet some of the greatest
athletes on the planet.
13
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:38,920
(LAUGHTER)
14
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,080
..as well as some of
the biggest stars...
15
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:42,120
Hello!
16
00:00:42,160 --> 00:00:44,440
..from the world of music
and entertainment.
17
00:00:44,480 --> 00:00:46,200
(LAUGHTER)
18
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,720
We'll be immersing ourselves
in their worlds,
19
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,000
to find out
what makes them who they are.
20
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:52,240
I look happy, don't I?
21
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,000
Just minus the skill...
22
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:55,440
Oh, my God!
23
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:56,640
..talent...
24
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,080
This goes to my wife
in about three weeks.
25
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:00,320
..or motivation...
26
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:01,680
Jesus Christ!
27
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,200
Bolt don't do this, innit?
28
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,120
..that makes them megastars.
29
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:07,320
Holy shit!
30
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,720
This week, Romesh and I have been
given exclusive access
31
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,840
to Super Bowl champions,
the Philadelphia Eagles.
32
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,400
We're going to learn all about
America's favourite pastime:
33
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:20,640
The NFL...
34
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:21,880
(CHEERS)
35
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,960
..to find out
if it can take off in the UK.
36
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,960
Romesh and I will be meeting up with
fellow Brit and Super Bowl winner,
37
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,480
Jay Ajayi,
38
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,680
as he takes us training
in Philadelphia...
39
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:33,720
Hup! Ohh.
40
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:38,240
..to get us ready for our NFL debuts
in front of 90,000 fans
41
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:39,800
at Wembley Stadium.
42
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,200
Oh, no!
43
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,640

(SONG CONTINUES PLAYING)
54
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:13,720
Essentially, what we're up to
here... Yeah.
55
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,840
..is trying to see if NFL,
biggest sport in the United States
56
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,720
they're trying to break it
over here...
57
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,200
Yes.
..can they do it?
58
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,400
-Yes.
-Or, will they do it?
That's what we're doing.
59
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,320
The issue is:
it's really complicated, the NFL.
60
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,000
I'm really trying to get into it,
and I like it.
61
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,240
I basically watch a bit of it
front of season,
62
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,160
but I always watch the Super Bowl.
Right.
63
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,200
So we always have a bit of a
Super Bowl party, me and my mates.
64
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:38,440
Erm...
65
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,600
(BOTH STAMMERING)
66
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:43,840
Yeah. That's a bit of a weird one.
You're probably working.
67
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:45,800
Well, next... To be fair-
At 2:00am?
68
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,560
Last time, I watched it in Dublin,
69
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,000
and my mate's come out to Dublin
with me for a tour show
70
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,720
and we watched it after.
That's why you weren't invited.
71
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,160
Yeah, but you said
you do it every year.
72
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,040
Yeah. (STAMMERS)
Let's not get bogged down in why...
73
00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:59,640
Are we actually mates?
74
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,920
I'm gonna say this now...
OK.
75
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,160
Are you ready for it?
76
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,920
Mate, I've never been readier.
Never watched a Super Bowl game.
77
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,520
Never watched...
Even a bit of it?
78
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,080
I did watch the bit where
Janet Jackson's tit popped out.
79
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,360
Oh, Romesh!
80
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:16,800
The truth is, the sport is...
81
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,640
I find it, if I'm being honest,
impenetrable.
82
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,520
Right, they did that...
(LAUGHS)
83
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,040
Like...
84
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,240
They go for a little bit,
then they have a break,
85
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:26,680
and they're having a chat,
86
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,240
then they talk about the strategy,
I don't understand it.
87
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,640
This is good, because we don't
really know much, so we can learn.
88
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,200
And the only place to learn
is the US of A.
89
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,760
Our NFT adventure would begin
in Philadelphia,
90
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,480
the city of brotherly love...
91
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,960
..and home to one of the biggest
teams in the NFL:
92
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,200
Super Bowl champions,
the Philadelphia Eagles.
93
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,560
COMMENTATOR: 'And the Eagles
have won Super Bowl 52!'
94
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,320
They don't come any better than
the Eagles.
95
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,000
And we've been given
exclusive access
96
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,000
to their pre-season training camp,
97
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,440
where we were going to train
with the champions
98
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,320
and be put through our paces,
NFL style.
99
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,040
Here we go, Romesh.
100
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,920
Philly-dilly!
101
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,560
Rob, why are we in this vehicle?
102
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,320
Bigger the better, innit?
Well, not-
103
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,880
That's the American way.
You've got no spatial awareness.
104
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:30,680
Since when have you made that up?
Why...
105
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,800
It's every time
I've been in a vehicle with you.
106
00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:35,360
Name one issue we've had.
107
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,520
I don't ever feel comfortable when
-I'm with you as a passenger.
-Really?
108
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,960
And that's in a normal-size car.
Are you doing passenger brakes?
109
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,920
Why don't you fucking drive then?
110
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,040
I don't understand. I enjoy life,
and I'm excited to be in America
111
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:51,760
in Philadelphia, doing work, right?
112
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,400
You're miserable. So I need
to understand it from your
point of view how annoying it is.
113
00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:01,000
Why don't you pretend to be me, and
react to what you're seeing how I
react, so I can see what it's like?
114
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,520
I'll be a bit quiet and miserable
like you, and see how we get on.
115
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:05,960
(AS ROB) Oh, I'm a right prick.
116
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,240
I keep talking regardless of whether
117
00:05:09,280 --> 00:05:11,800
I've got a point or any reason
to be speaking or not.
118
00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:13,600
(ROB CHUCKLES)
This is narrow.
119
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,280
Oh, look. It's a wall.
(LAUGHS)
120
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,120
I decided to get a big car cos bigger
is better, but I can't drive
even a normal-sized car.
121
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,440
(LAUGHS)
He-he!
122
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,480
So, we're training with the Eagles
today.
123
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,560
-Yes.
-Er, wh-
Do you know how amazing that is?
124
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,320
Er, well-
Super-Bowl-winning Eagles.
125
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:37,520
Training with the Eagles, would be
great if I had some sort of base
level of fitness, right?
126
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,760
Sure.
Just now, I became short of breath
127
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,280
eating from this bag of pretzels.
128
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,520
(LAUGHS)
129
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,000
What do you think about your level of
fitness for doing NFL training?
130
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:50,720
I think I'm slightly
fitter than you,
131
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,760
but not fit enough
to train with the Eagles.
132
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,480
Why are you slightly fitter than me?
133
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,360
You've eaten a full bag of pretzels.
We've been here 20 minutes.
134
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,360
So, I've eaten half this bag of
pretzels, easily, right?
135
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,760
Yeah.
And then I looked on the bag.
136
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,000
I said, "It's not that bad,
it's a few pretzels."
137
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:09,000
On the bag it says,
"This bag contains 16 servings."
138
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,320
(LAUGHS)
I reckon you've had eight.
139
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:13,920
So, what's the calorie-
140
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,280
No, I'm... Fuck. Oh, fuck me.
I've had... I've had 1,000 calories.
141
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,720
(LAUGHING) No, you haven't.
Mate, I promise you.
142
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,880
I've had eight servings.
Yeah?
143
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,880
It's 110 calories per serving.
144
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,880
You've done that
without even flinching.
145
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:27,720
Oh, what have I done?
(LAUGHS)
146
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,240
You're genuinely upset.
Yeah, I honestly...
147
00:06:30,280 --> 00:06:31,480
(LAUGHS)
148
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,080
So, with Rom's high-calorie
preparations complete,
149
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,640
it was time to join the Eagles
at their pre-season boot camp.
150
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:41,640
Go, Rom.
151
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,520
It's fun being away
in Philly with Rom.
152
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,120
I'm more excited than him.
He does a lot of travelling.
153
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,560
He normally goes to shitholes.
154
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,040
BOTH: Swoop!
Hey, Swoop.
155
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,080
Yeah.
156
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,160
I've got absolutely zero experience
of playing American football.
157
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,720
I have grown up finding the whole
idea that they call it football
offensive.
158
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,640
The training camp?
Yeah.
159
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,200
Yeah, yeah, we're going training.
Yeah, we're going.
160
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,480
I'm excited about the training,
I think, like,
161
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,040
you're at the training centre...
I'm really excited about the kit.
162
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,840
I don't know why, but just, like,
putting on all the kit is gonna be
really exciting.
163
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,520
That fits your mouth perfectly.
164
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:14,560
(LAUGHS)
165
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,200
So, with Rob's helmet sorted,
it was time for our own training
session to begin.
166
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,760
First though, we wanted to see
how the Super Bowl champions do it.
167
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,360
(ONE WHISTLE BLOW, PLAYERS GRUNTING)

Ready. Set. Hut!

337
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,080
Come on! Ahhh!
All right.
338
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:40,520

00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,640
-And what?Ah-ha-ha!
-OK, now we've
got a hit on the shoulders, now.
340
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:49,440
So now, you got a little taste of
the idea of hitting someone,
341
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,240
now we wanna run and catch.
You think you can run and catch?
342
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,080
Yeah, I'll try.
Let me get a football.

You don't look like you're offence
alignment or defence alignment
344
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,160
so we're gonna try
-the other positions.OK.
-OK.

00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:06,280
'This was it. Our final chance
to impress Jay and Rick.
346
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,680
We had to make the catch
and score the touchdown.'
347
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,480

But then went sinister.'
368
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,960
He did it for two seconds too long.
369
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,200
I'll show you. It's like,
"Yaaay."
370
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,960
Boom.
That's what he should have done.
371
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,480
What he did, was,
"Yaaay."
372
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,000
Mmm.
373
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,120
Too long.
THAT was the problem with it.
374
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,560
We had a good day today.
That was good.
375
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,640
Do you know what? I can genuinely
see myself getting into it.
376
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,480
I'm absolutely distraught
-I didn't catch it.
-Yeah.
377
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,160
Genuinely furious.
378
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,240
I'm distraught that Jay
seemed to hate me for some reason.
379
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,200
He did. I think you won the football
and I won the friendship.
380
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,840
Yeah. And that is saying something,
cos you are annoying.
381
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,080
And you're shit.

ROB: Rom and I are in Philadelphia,
384
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,720
and after our gruelling training
session with Jay and Rick,
385
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,320
there was only one way to recover,
by trying a local delicacy,
386
00:17:14,360 --> 00:17:15,760
the Philadelphia cheesesteak.
387
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:20,640
Is it like actually going to be good,
388
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,640
or is it like fish and chips
which is crap but is traditional?
389
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,080
Dunno. Let's find out.
390
00:17:25,120 --> 00:17:26,960
I can't eat cheese or steak.
391
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,160
You can eat the bread.

(MEAT SIZZLING)
393
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,160
I need to talk to you
394
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,360
about your celebration.
395
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,800
Oh, right, g- I thought you were
breaking up with me.
396
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:40,960
No, no, no, not yet.
397
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,560
The normal celebration,
if you score or get, is like
398
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,160
"Yeah. Yeah."
399
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,520
That's, that's the one.
400
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,640
Why did your brain send you to...
401
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,640
Because, erm...
First of all, that is-
402
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,080
That's...
No, but...
403
00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:57,760
I'm bringing it down.
(REPEATS) I didn't do that face.
404
00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,400
That is less than what you did.
405
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,560
I'm bringing it down,
cos there's kids here. OK?
406
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,280
I did not do that face.
407
00:18:04,360 --> 00:18:06,480
Don't, please don't.
Cos you had the helmet on.
408
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,080
But that's what you were doing. OK?
409
00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:10,800
Let's talk about your cele-
Oh, that's right. I didn't see it.
410
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:12,360
Ohh, wow (!)
411
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,640
If this was an Instagram post,
I'd put "savage" on it.
412
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,800
And I'd pin it to your forehead.
So, what's your celebration?
413
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,600
I'm gonna get the ball and
just go...
414
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,000
Do you know what you should do?
415
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,400
Not worry about it, cos
it's unlikely you're gonna catch it.
416
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,000
Fair enough.
417
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:39,040
I've got to be honest. I think
training in that kit, in that heat,
418
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,960
is one of the most physically
strenuous things I've ever done.
419
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,000
The worst part of it was,
I got absolutely ruined...
420
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:46,960
Yeah.
..by Dick Lovato.
421
00:18:48,120 --> 00:18:51,520
And my back's been aching since.
He absolutely went through me.
422
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,280
But you loved it.
I discovered something yesterday.
423
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,080
My favourite Rob Beckett is the one
that's just been injured.
424
00:18:57,120 --> 00:18:59,200
Do you think that was out of order
from him?
425
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,440
Is it out of order for a
professional NFL player to knock you
down by surprise?
426
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:03,720
Yes.
No.
427
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,800
I didn't even catch it.
I know. That was bad.
428
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,440
I mean,
for me to be able to catch it,
429
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:15,160
I think, if I hadn't have had that
experience of like actually getting
some success... Yeah.
430
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,360
..it would have been
a gutting experience.
431
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,400
I can't imagine what it would have
been like-
432
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,640
..You managed to catch it
and you're half blind.
433
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,120
I'm partially sighted.
434
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,240
You've genuinely
got no depth perception.
435
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,840
I don't think so.
436
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,440
Didn't even move. Didn't even react.
437
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:32,840
What are you doing?
Do you see my hands
coming towards you?
438
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,080
Yes, I can. I'm not bli-
I'm not Stevie Wonder, mate.
439
00:19:35,120 --> 00:19:37,160
You said "no depth perception".
440
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:38,200
Don't-
441
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:39,640
See? You reacted. You're lying.
442
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,160
See?
Oh, my gosh. I'm embarrassed (!)
443
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,520
(LAUGHS)
444
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,720
There's egg on my face.
This has been really...
445
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,800
You really have taught me
-a lesson today.
-Thanks.
446
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,000
Thank you so much.
447
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,080
How's your back after getting done
-over by Ricky?
-It really hurts.
448
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,240
You weren't bothered
about the NFL at all,
449
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,720
so when we was doing this episode,
I was excited cos I watched
a few games and I like it.
450
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,920
How are you feeling now about
the NFL after coming here?
451
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,560
I sort of came into this thinking
it'll be an experience.
452
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:14,800
Yeah.
Obviously.
453
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,320
And I would say I was about here.
Yeah.
454
00:20:18,360 --> 00:20:20,200
Now I'm about here.
I'm not quite here yet.
455
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,160
What is up there?
What's that called? A fan of it?
456
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,040
Yeah. A fan of it, like I'd actually
seek out to watch a game.
457
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,200
Then you were... So now you're...
What's this?
458
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:29,520
Nearly a fan.
Yeah.
459
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,720
It's a basic chart.
I'm still making up my mind.
460
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,200
-Sure. OK.
-I'm not gonna pull out
a Venn diagram.
461
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,400
Were you a maths teacher?
The point is this:
462
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,720
I am much more on board with it
than I was.
463
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:39,800
Yep.
Right?
464
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,040
The one doubt, the niggling doubt
that I've got in my mind is
465
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,520
what an actual whole game is like to
sit and engage with for the entirety.
466
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,720
It's a long time.
That will be the test for me.
467
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,640
But I'm coming into it with a much
more open mind than I did before.
468
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,400
As the sun set on Philadelphia,
and wanting to go to a match,
469
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,920
we arranged to meet up with
our mate from training,
470
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,760
fellow Brit and Eagles running back,
Jay Ajayi.
471
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,400
COMMENTATOR: 'Jay, an inside
hand-off. Look at him go!'
472
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:12,600
Hello, mate.
473
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,160
We were gonna ask him
about his Super Bowl win,
474
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,360
our playing potential,
but, more importantly,
475
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,080
whether he could get us into a game.
476
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:24,680
You're an exciting player,
you get yards and score touchdowns
and stuff.
477
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,120
What positions, do you reckon, me
and Romesh will be suitable for?
478
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,960
You've got quite broad shoulders...
You'd be like a centre.
479
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,760
Yeah?
You got your hand in the dirt, man.
480
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,480
He's got his hand in the dirt?
That sounded like an accusation.
481
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:37,640
(LAUGHS)
482
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,280
Romesh Ranganathan in sex scare!
(LAUGHS)
483
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:41,840
Caught with his hand in the dirt.
484
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,280
(LAUGHS) No...
He's an animal.
485
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,600
That's a standard...
That's a football statement.
486
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,160
Oh, OK. Fine.
"Hand in the dirt".
487
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,320
When you said-
That's actually search criteria on
some laptops.
488
00:21:50,360 --> 00:21:52,400
(ALL LAUGH)
489
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:56,920
You play centre, you probably, like,
you'll be a trainer or something.
490
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:57,960
Yeah.
Trainer?
491
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,400
Hand out the Gatorade or whatever.
Do you know what I mean?
492
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,440
He has his hand in the dirt
and I'm watching?
493
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,040
I've got my hand in the dirt,
he's doing snacks or whatever.
494
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,000
You'd be a good duo, you know.
495
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,720
You just bring him the water
when he gets tired and all that.
496
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,040
This is gonna rip us apart,
sort of Ant and Dec here.
497
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,160
The NFL... The NFL...
498
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,000
The NFL hasn't got a budget
for a grill to protect those teeth.
499
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,000

what exactly a centre is?

00:22:37,120 --> 00:22:38,600
Wh-What skills do I need to have?
506
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:43,080
First off, I mean, you already have
the build, you know, for it.
507
00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:45,160
You're a big guy.
Huge shoulders.
508
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,000
It was kind of a compliment,
kind of not a compliment.
509
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:49,760
Is centre like a fat prick?
510

I mean...
Fat prick?
511
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,080
You know, they're bigger guys.
Right.
512
00:22:54,120 --> 00:22:57,320
But you hold the ball every play.
It-It starts with you.
513
00:22:57,360 --> 00:22:59,400
You snap the ball
-to the quarterback.
-Yeah.
514
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:00,920
It's low pressure, though.
Mm.
515
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,720
The centre is definitely not doing
nothing glamorous,
516
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,560
they do the dirty work, like I said.
517
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,440

the running backs, quarterbacks.

it will be incredible.
837
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,640
Listen, let me explain something
to you. The NFL's great.
838
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,720
But I don't understand
why we can't do a show
839
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:15,960
where Rob and I immerse ourselves
840
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:17,360
in what it's like to be a fan.
841
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,280
None of these people are doing this.
842
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,160

the NFL experience,

at half time.

That's not a thing.

00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,600
Oh, dear.
846
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,480
All I want is to catch. In my...
847
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,560
I don't care about anything else
now, above catching that ball.
848
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:32,800
I'm obsessed with it.
849
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,320
I want Rom to catch it too.
850
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,040
But I REALLY want to catch it.
851
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,200
And if he catches it and I don't,
I'm gonna be livid.
852
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,760
God knows what he's gonna be like,
if that prick catches it today.
853

If he catches it,
the relationship's over.
854
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:47,920
Let me tell you that now.
855
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:52,280
He is a weapons-grade prick
on his best day.
856
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:53,720

after he's done that
in front of Wembley.
858
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:57,520
His head will explode.
859
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,280
But before that nightmarish scenario
could come about...
860
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:13,280
..it was time for the NFL
to do what it does best,
861
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:14,480
