I know it's been many years now from when Ryan was a basket case ...but what a turn around...he's one of the best analysts and so well spoken...no stuttering or "like" every sentence...😁✌️
Ryan has superb presentation skills and some really insightful takes. What a miracle he turned his life around. He might be my new favorite NFL analyst.
Ryan Leaf is a leading analyst in both the college and NFL ranks. He just understands the game from a wealth of spaces and I hope he gets a bigger gig sometime soon. He is the ultimate in redemption stories.
So great to see a living example and a feel good story of someone that turned his life around from the lowest of lows to currently a respected, knowledgeable analyst. Being an in house guest means the guest is going to have a long segment and Leaf is so great to have because he has great responses to every question DP throws at him. No hesitation, just real, sincere, knowledgeable comments and opinions to every question. Great show!
I love the fact that: Every time I see Ryan Leaf on 'The Dan Patrick Show' it is...In Studio. He never does a 'zoom' or he's never 'on the phone'(at least not by my knowledge, I could be wrong).
Dude I'm so happy he said what he said about Penix I'm a big time Vikings fan and we're going to draft one high. IVE BEEN SAYING I WANT PENNIX BADLY TO BE THE NEXT QB FOR THE VIKINGS TILL 2040!!!
Earlier in the season I wasn't a fan of da' Bears keeping Justin Fields, but his play the last couple of months has changed my opinion. I agree with Ryan: keep Fields, trade the #1 pick & get some extra draft capital & try to put the team in a position to get Marvin Harrison Jr so Fields has a big time WR. Then spend the rest of the draft on the O & D lines bcuz building a team from the inside out has been proven time & again to make long-term winners
Why does the show put their in studio guests microphones on a pole right in front of the guest. He’s hit the microphone two or three times already. Low budget issues or just don’t see how awkward it looks.
I suspect having a wife and child has helped to keep him on the sane path. But, it wasn't that long ago (2020) he was arrested for assault. He is a very articulate analyst and for this reason alone he is a very compelling analyst. Its also true that he is aware that his demons are not that far in the rear view mirror and thus there is the chance he may fall again.
I agree with dan. I own some real estate and anytime I'm put in the situation where I'm being told what I can and can't do with an asset that I own and paid for... there's nothing that get under my skin more. It's really a reflexive response it doesn't really matter the issue per se if you understand what I'm saying
Have to dispute Ryan's point on the Chiefs and dropped passes (ie no significant change from last year). The Chiefs WRs have dropped 8 percent of Mahomes passes compared to the next highest team rate of 5.1% dropped passes. Also, Watson isn't close to the most drops on the Chiefs - Rashee Rice has 7 drops (12.5%), then Kelce, then Toney and then Watson.
Ryan wouldn't understand the reason Sean tried to yell at Russ is because of his lack of emotion and seemingly competitiveness during the game he was trying to fire him up
I'm with Ryan regarding Payton. I think Payton is a narcissistic @sshole. He can't make the coaching adjustments to showcase Russ's strengths. Ryan has come such a long way in life. I'm so proud of him!
The money from that 350,000 fine should go to the family who was totally disrespected. Tepper has already shown that he's incapable of being an NFL owner. There are so many other more responsible folks waiting in the wings with their billions. Huh?
Here's Dan playing the commissioner again....stay in your lane Danny...what, Steve balmers reward for owning the clippers is "he gets to go to the games"....?...I think that billionaire could afford a suite at clippers games if he wasnt owner...👎
If you are suspended by the NFL you cannot go to the game even if you buy a ticket. It’s about the fact that he owns the team but isn’t allowed around them.
No JFC...that's not what I'm saying... comment?..great,.. fantastic!..but non expert opinion...on things you've never done..i.e ..play, ref, coach, general manage, and commish...the only reason I listen to Patrick is he does get some great guests on..that are expert... you probably didn't even notice but when Dan would give his take and opinion on what the real experts should do....i.e. goodell about panther owner...his guest who IS an expert in nfl matters, subtly, politely... offered a better solution .... when you have NEVER been on the inside, you have no idea all the mechanisms legalities involved...JUST SAYIN ✌️😁
I have noticed that Dan often comes across as insensitive and demeaning while interviewing people… Always has to bring up something negative or embarrassing… Particularly here, about Ryan’s past and his struggles with addiction, while making condescending remarks as if he’s making a joke of it or talking down to him… Here’s an idea then why not just ask football questions or something positive? he does this patronizing kind of thing to a lot of guests, but particularly to Ryan and it’s unprofessional and really pisses me off… If Dan Patrick had been divorced four times would he want to keep talking about it every single radio interview? I don’t think so… and Ryan is more successful in football then probably 98% of people who strive to be one of the best ever at their particular craft… so While not being able to hold Ryan’s jockstrap in any sport… He should also review his method of interviewing athletes and get off his high horse that he rides on for no apparent reason… he’s arrogant and narcissistic… Honestly, he’s just a douche bag that one of the ratings suck for this show 🫡🙅♂️
I know it's been many years now from when Ryan was a basket case ...but what a turn around...he's one of the best analysts and so well spoken...no stuttering or "like" every sentence...😁✌️
I couldn't agree with you more about him! He is growing as Dan's best guest list fast for me!
Leaf's all substance, incredibly honest
Good example that people (vast majority, anyway) deserve chances to turn things around..happy for the guy.
AMEN. JUST feel for him.
He's a good man, now. Kudos to him!
Ryan Leaf is always one of the betters guests. Always very insightful. Good job Todd!😁
Ryan is always a great guest!!!
On for a half hour!
Always one of his best guest!! Nothing but respect for this guy
Seeing the honestly of R Leaf speaking about his addiction. It’s refreshing to see he’s in a good spot. Keep it up! Rooting for this next chapter.
Ryan has superb presentation skills and some really insightful takes. What a miracle he turned his life around. He might be my new favorite NFL analyst.
Ryan really knows his stuff to the core ! What a turnaround! Seeing him successful and inspiring makes me super happy!
Loving Ryan Leaf, looking in great shape too man looks like he can suit up for a game
If you are a fan and throw water on the owner, you would be arrested and have your life destroyed.
Never assume water in the cup....
a whole new respect for Ryan Leaf. He has really made something of his life. Congrats Ryan, great example for people everywhere.
live in san diego all my life...great to see where he's at now
Ryan Leaf is a leading analyst in both the college and NFL ranks. He just understands the game from a wealth of spaces and I hope he gets a bigger gig sometime soon. He is the ultimate in redemption stories.
Ryan leaf is my favorite guest. Hope you have him as much as possible.
Love Ryan Leaf. I wish Dan would put an end to bringing up his past, it’s old.
His rough past and turnaround, especially posted near the New Year, can be motivating in-and-of itself.
What if you've never heard Ryan speak of it before?
Leaf is my favorite post playing athlete. Glad for him
Been happy to see Ryan doing so well past few years.
Fantastic interview as always with Ryan.
So great to see a living example and a feel good story of someone that turned his life around from the lowest of lows to currently a respected, knowledgeable analyst.
Being an in house guest means the guest is going to have a long segment and Leaf is so great to have because he has great responses to every question DP throws at him. No hesitation, just real, sincere, knowledgeable comments and opinions to every question. Great show!
Ryan’s terrific and a great personal reclamation story. Love listening to him. Hope he gets his own gig soon.
Ryan is awesome and I could see him taking over for Dan.
I remember the days of him being way out there and it's so awesome to see he came out the other side. It's inspiring to me.
love Ryan he needs his own show..
agreed, very honest. people love authenticity
God bless Ryan Leaf
When Ryan speaks I always listen 👂🏻!!
Leaf is great, enjoy his honest and unbiased opinions. A real success story
Tons of respect for Ryan Leaf and the way he resurrected his life.
I love the fact that: Every time I see Ryan Leaf on 'The Dan Patrick Show' it is...In Studio. He never does a 'zoom' or he's never 'on the phone'(at least not by my knowledge, I could be wrong).
Props to Leaf for always being open about sharing his past addiction to the devlish-demon of hardcore drug abuse. Keep it up and stay clean Ryan
Ryan leaf great analysis awesome job ! Keep the great work sir !!
Dude I'm so happy he said what he said about Penix I'm a big time Vikings fan and we're going to draft one high. IVE BEEN SAYING I WANT PENNIX BADLY TO BE THE NEXT QB FOR THE VIKINGS TILL 2040!!!
Alright! Go Bobcats!

Nobody cares what you think
@@chrislosm: Yet here u r.
Great honesty
He nailed it all. We praise the QB so much but forget that the other 10 players need to help.
Leaf a good dude whos doing good things. Glad hes found his path
Yes Ryan, you are the only guest that has been in there in a while.
Ryan deserves his own show
Why does the show put their in studio guests microphones on a pole right in front of the guest. He’s hit the microphone two or three times already. Low budget issues or just don’t see how awkward it looks.
Ryan Leaf the best football analyst period !
Joel Klatt said that if you didn't vote for Penix for the heisman you didn't watch any husky football games
Unbelievable song choice to come back. I love alice in chains
We need a show about that prison Fantasy Football league. :)
If drops became a receiver stat instead of incomplete pass, there would be a drastic reduction in the number of drops. Guaranteed!!😅😅😂
RYAN!
I suspect having a wife and child has helped to keep him on the sane path. But, it wasn't that long ago (2020) he was arrested for assault.
He is a very articulate analyst and for this reason alone he is a very compelling analyst. Its also true that he is aware that his demons are not that far in the rear view mirror and thus there is the chance he may fall again.

Dan took ryan to a dark place there but i appreciate ryan opening up for us
Ryan Leaf is making a difference. Glad he's doing well.
RYAN LEAF NEEDS HIS OWN SHOW OR PUT HIM IN A BOOTH PLS 🙏
Oops did dan say he's on both? 😬
Go Browns Dan and Ryan
Justin Fields and Bears content starts at 20:15
If that's what ya came for
Go bobcats!
Will Ferrell has a little bit of Ryan Leaf in him
He said it got me extra ramen every week 😂😂
Have to dispute Ryan's point on the Chiefs and dropped passes (ie no significant change from last year). The Chiefs WRs have dropped 8 percent of Mahomes passes compared to the next highest team rate of 5.1% dropped passes. Also, Watson isn't close to the most drops on the Chiefs - Rashee Rice has 7 drops (12.5%), then Kelce, then Toney and then Watson.
Amen 🙏 like 👍 thank you if you liked

Three Men and a Little Baby!
I can play QB with a great O-line !
I Stay Away!
AIC!! #ImissLayne
The new Broncos owners told him they would do this if it didnt work out with Russ...duh.
Feels like leaf is guessing on a lot of these questions.
Not going to the last Panthers game is not punishment. It is a reprieve.
The money from that 350,000 fine should go to the family who was totally disrespected. Tepper has already shown that he's incapable of being an NFL owner. There are so many other more responsible folks waiting in the wings with their billions. Huh?
If they want to punish an owner, take draft picks away . That’s how you hurt them
I know it"s 3 weeks later, but the Cleveland fluffing dose not age well kind of like Ryan Leaf"s NFL Career 😂😂
Give me Ryan Leaf the man over Tom Brady the man any day of the week. He’s real. Props Ryan
Bear's better keep Field's
Trade Fields go with tyson bagel or whatever his name is
No way herb was better then this dude in college. He competed against Manning for the number 1 pick
Why does Dan hate the state of Washington? Any Washington topic he generally deflects. Seems only thing Washington he likes is Andrew.
Way too much junk on Dans table! DP needs to hack up his chair! Can see only his shoul up!
VIKINGS GO GET THE QB from The Washington Huskies.! Thank me later
In what universe do you people think that Caleb Williams is a successful NFL quarterback? He isn't and never will be!😂😂😂😂
Even if Patrick Mahomes or Lamar Jackson were the panthers qb. They would still have the same record. That overall team is trash
Here's Dan playing the commissioner again....stay in your lane Danny...what, Steve balmers reward for owning the clippers is "he gets to go to the games"....?...I think that billionaire could afford a suite at clippers games if he wasnt owner...👎
JFC 🤦♂️🤦♂️ you're saying a sports commentator shouldn't comment on sports
If you are suspended by the NFL you cannot go to the game even if you buy a ticket. It’s about the fact that he owns the team but isn’t allowed around them.
Uhhh duh....great reply...duh...
No JFC...that's not what I'm saying... comment?..great,.. fantastic!..but non expert opinion...on things you've never done..i.e ..play, ref, coach, general manage, and commish...the only reason I listen to Patrick is he does get some great guests on..that are expert... you probably didn't even notice but when Dan would give his take and opinion on what the real experts should do....i.e. goodell about panther owner...his guest who IS an expert in nfl matters, subtly, politely... offered a better solution .... when you have NEVER been on the inside, you have no idea all the mechanisms legalities involved...JUST SAYIN ✌️😁
Dan is a bore more and more over the years
