Anthony Muñoz | December 8, 2021

From December 8, 2021: On the 66th episode of “Great Dane Nation,” Morten is joined by his Pro Football Hall of Fame brother and Cincinnati Bengals legend Anthony Muñoz. But first, he checks in with TommyFreezePops (Tom Carroll) for this week’s edition of the “Opening Kick." Morten talks about the Detroit Lions getting their first win of the season, and how his old friend Dan Campbell reminded all of us postgame what really matters in life. We then move to our interview with Anthony Muñoz, where he discusses a wide range of topics: why a gold jacket is required for an invite to Anthony’s golf tournament; why he waited to start his foundation until well-after his playing days, and what his foundation focuses on within the greater Cincinnati region; the influence of his grandparents on his upbringing, and growing up without a father; why he’s so high on the 2021 Bengals, and what he loves about Joe Burrow; why we’ll be talking about Joe Burrow as a top 5 QB in the NFL sooner rather than later; a call for Kenny Anderson to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame; why he wouldn’t have drafted Ja'Marr Chase that high this past spring, but absolutely respects the pro he has been in his rookie season; offensive line play in today’s game, and why it’s not at the level it used to be; Anthony’s “non-negotiable” traits all young offensive linemen should work on; who he thinks is the best offensive tackle in today’s NFL; why Quenton Nelson is the best guard in the NFL; why Dwight Stephenson is the greatest center he has ever seen; why Bruce Smith was the toughest person to block in his career; the players in today’s game that he would’ve loved to go up against; sharing memories of one of Morten’s favorite coaches ever, Frank Gansz Sr.; and this week’s edition of “The Name Game,” featuring Paul Brown, Cris Collinsworth, Archie Griffin, Ickey Woods and Sam Wyche. Then we move to this week’s edition of “Morten’s Fast 5,” where our Hall of Famer makes picks for the five biggest games of the football weekend. Morten gives his picks for Rams at Cardinals, Bills at Buccaneers, Ravens at Browns, Cowboys at Washington, and Raiders at Chiefs. Finally, we close things out with “Morten’s Game Winner” – a weekly monologue from The Great Dane on his biggest takeaway of the week. This week, Morten talks about his friend Anthony Muñoz, and how his character off the field has led him to being a pillar in the community.
