Episode Description from the Publisher

Luke McCown returns for Part 2 — and somehow, we covered even more ground than the first time.  A 13-year NFL career as the guy standing right behind Drew Brees gives you a perspective most fans never hear. Luke pulls back the curtain on what really happens inside an NFL building — the parts the cameras don't catch on Sunday, the politics nobody admits to, and what it actually takes to stick around in a league where most guys don't make it two years. We get into the modern youth sports machine and where it's quietly breaking kids, the lie of "if you can dream it, you can do it," and the one moment in his first practice with Drew Brees that made him call his brother before he'd even taken his helmet off.  He also makes a case for the greatest quarterback of all time and it may be someone you're not expecting...  If you missed Part 1, watch it here.
