Good Morning Football indeed live from Los Angeles, and we'll welcome back inside our studios. Here's this Good Morning Football presented by the Farmer's Dog. That's Kyle Brandt, Peter Schrager, Baja Biam Miller. I'm Jamie rdl Akbar. It's been five hours of TV with us. How are you feeling.

I'm feeling good. You know, I got my water at the tea.

You know that's all you need.

You we're all dogging it right now. No, no catheene you know what I mean?

Like that now means you fly across the country. You don't watch any movies.

Your old company.

Now that the old thing of it.

This summer he would be sitting on planes and not watching movies, was filming himself, just sitting staring at the flight map.

There's no way I could do that.

I love it. You're gonna do that, Peter, the right test some stread.

Can you just watch the flight map for seven hours straight?

I can it for five minutes. I'm addicted. You're up there watching Secret Life of Pets or.

Something that you can't do it the movie pop tart movie. We don't talk about frosted. We gotta get into frosted scrapping. We're not gonna talk I talk about frosted. What is this Jerry Seinfeld pop tart movie?

Is? I got nothing?

Netflix says to Jerry Seinfeld, here's one hundred million dollars. Do move bout anything, change the world, and he's like the creation of bothers. I watched it for the gaff again.

Is going to watch five minutes and I checked that that's all he needs.

Gotcha, you gotcha?

Well, welcome. We're glad that you were able to you need the kaffy. No, I don't. I just am like so rattled by that term that you wanted to bring up from last from our rehearsals.

Oh, come on, Jamie, let's go. And we know the term is out there. It's no coffee. No coffee doesn't.

We're just applying it to everything, all right. It's typically black.

It is.

It is hard Lamar Jackson boo, let's suck Lamar. Regular season, he's got that down pat last season he earned his second MVP. He's incredible. Seventeen weeks of football postseason, though, this has become a different story for Lamar. He's only one playoff win under his belt and four tries. Lamar's goals now this season have become quite clear.

Just the highest level of this game. You know, we play, so you got to go out a champion. That's what I want to be labeled as a champion, you know, not just MVP here and there, Like, I want to be a champion.

Crazy is the key.

You know, only a few quarterbacks won a Super Bowl in the last few years, you know, a lot of people haven't.

Won it, you know.

But I'm focusing on me and I just want that really bad, you know, So I just focus on what I can control and go from there.

This must become annoying. Regular season success, postseason struggles, regular season postseason What do we make of this Lamar and the goals that he has for himself entering this year.

Peter Michael Jordan had a lot of regular season success.

It would lose to the Pistons and eventually would get over the hump and then was the guy like, I'm not bailing on Lamar because he hasn't made the Super Bowl yet. In fact, I go back to last year's AFC Championship game. I was in the building, our ex co host Jason mccordy was in the building. We were watching Ravens versus Chiefs together. And it's seventeen to seven late in the fourth quarter with the Chiefs leading in the Baltimore defense playing great and that Baltimore Ravens are finally getting a going on offense. And this happens this play here and rookie Za Flowers is trying to get the extra yarc down ten l Jerius sneed pops it loose and that's the If he scores that at seventeen fourteen, with fifteen minutes left to go in the game at home, in an AFC championship game, with the Chiefs not being able to do anything except punt on their final eight possessions, everything could be different.

It's an unbelievable play by Snead, who.

Got paid this offseason deservedly.

So the Chiefs go on to win the Super Bowl, and that's just how history goes.

My question is how does the team respond from that.

They had their opportunity and Jay Flowers was this breakout rookie and that was a setback. I mentioned Michael Jordan and that's high praise. Where we can go down Lebron James, you can name out. It doesn't happen right away. Sometimes sometimes you need to lose a few times before you win. To me, I have no problem with Lamar missing practice last week. I have no problem with Lamar being down in South Florida and may I have no problem with any of it because that team was so good last year and they added.

So many pieces.

But it's gotta happen, like you can't.

You can a couple times go and be an MVP and not winning. This has to be it or next year or the year after, because eventually it's all right. Lamar Jackson's in his mid thirties and he's not running like he used to and he's not playing like he used to. In this team couldn't pay everybody because all those young rookies had to get their free agent deals. That loose ball, there by lugarious need changed the future for everybody in Kansas City. But it also affected this Ravens team. How do they bounce back? That's what I'm fascinating.

Well, I'll tell you how they bounced back. First off, you know, I'm still sick about what happened with Zay Flower and the mistakes that he made that obviously cost them. That was a big part of it. But to answer your question, I think the best way for them to respond to this is run. In that same game, the running backs only ran the ball six times in that game, And what they've done in this offseason by picking up Derrick Henry is equivalent to when the Los Angeles Lakers brought in Shaquille O'Neill to talk about Kobe. Hey, this is the Shaquille O'Neill right here. I mean, this dude is a monster when you give him the ball. If he's averaging over five yards of carry, he's going out and running like twenty twenty Dereck Henry. Let me tell you, as a defensive player, ain't nobody got time for that? And nobody want to see that type of nonsense. Oh you think I want to see Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson the backfield like that is a nastiness nobody is prepared for. And I'm not gonna make any predictions.

What people to say.

What you want to say, Man, that's hard to stop that right there. Looks like a super Bowl caliber team. So if Lamar Jackson saying he wants to win the Super Bowl. If there's ever a time. This is your Kobe and Shaquille O'Neill year right here.

The concern is, and I love it, and he's loved basketball.

The Sons with Steve Nash added shack, the Calves with Lebron added shack.

The Celtics is that is that Lakers shocked? That's Sterrick Henry like it's a fair question. The Titans crime.

Well, I'm sorry, but but here's the thing. Kill O'Neill and Kobe Bryant. You did hear what I said.

I said, Kobe, I don't think they're getting Lakers shacked.

No, no, no, no, I'm saying.

No, they're getting Lakers shack and they're getting We got Kobe, got Kobe, and we got Derrick Henry. Okay, maybe he's a year removed from the Lakers shack, but still heat shock.

Big dude heat shacked won a title with Dwayne Wade. Later in morning, when if Derrick Henry is Miami heat shacked, we're good.

We're good.

We can't have Calves shocked. We can't have six on the Celtics. The number was nasty.

The number was nasty. It's terrible.

But if we got heat shocked, we got something. We also have a little bit history. I'm gonna show you some pictures here. So Lamar's in this thing where he's got two m v ps. And it's not just that he hasn't won a super Bowl. There's been really disappointing football games. And you know, we can we can blame away a Flowers. That's not how the game works. You make mistakes. Here's the first picture. The last MVP got win MVP and never reached a super Bowl. Last time this guy won the MVP, never got super Adrian Peters.

Okay, so it's a running back. Maybe it's not all on him.

The last MVP quarterback. This is crazy. The last time a quarterback will won an MVP has never even so much as reached a super Bowl.

Bring it up.

That is.

That is that's just let's make a game out of it. Does anybody know who that is? The picture was loaded I properly, but anybody know who that is?

He read right from nineteen eighty He went to Bryan Sipe Brian Site.

He Goso State as.

A Browns quarterback. He never reached the super Boy won the MVP. We're going back now to the eighties. It's really nineteen eighty, like almost the seventies adjacent. The last quarterback to win multiple MVPs and never even reached a super Bowl. It's never happened. It's never happened. Really, it's never happened. All these Mannings and Rogers and Brady's and Steve McNair, Like they get to a Super Bowl.

I'm not even saying win it. You can't even get there.

Last year was this amazing shot for the Ravens where they were the team. They've had a couple other years where they were the team and it explodes, like, guys, they they're starting to feel like the AFC Cowboys in that we run up these records and we're great and we're flashing when trophies and then damn, it's disappointing. I mean, they should have been better than Kansas City last year.

How good they were against the forty nine.

You were the best team in the league.

They were, Chris and.

It was it happens once, it happens a couple of times.

He's a young guy, all right, it's twenty seven years old.

But let's also say, like Lamar has a lot of speed and things maybe not age that well. So I look at these guys, this is the deal you mentioned Jordan. I don't look at them as Jordan. I look at these guys. Are the guys who played against Jordan because Jordan plays for the Chiefs. He does not play for the Ravens. He plays fifteen for the Chiefs. Barkley ewing, is that the faith for these AFC quarterback because they played in the wrong era. Those are great all time players. You should have won championships and not a single title amongst them because twenty three was taking them all, fifteen's taking them all. So until one of these guys says, I'm sick of this. And I don't think they like Mahomes that much personally. I don't think they're friends with Mahomes. I don't think they trained with them. I don't think they golf with them. Really, until somebody does something, Lamar is Barkley, and Josh is Carl and Joe is hat.

This is a crazy imagery. This is the era of basketball that I grew up in, and this this is not going to sit Hall of Famers.

Hall of Famers is gonna sit well get some rings.

This is a run branch right here, Kyle.

I love.

It's an ode to Mahomes. I love all those guys. It's an ode to Mahomes. He's Jordan, Lamar, not Jordan. Mahomes is Jordan. You got to beat Jordan.

Do you think because of that one game last year that Harbaugh went out and said, I have to improve my run game and nothing else was. His defense is fine, it's intact. You go out and you get the one guy who frankly that Dereck Henry in the purple jersey. It does hit different. But do you think he was so irked by that Peter that he had shifting it?

That offensive game plan was atrocious and six runs, But Todd Monkin all season was running the ball up and down the field. They had all these great running backs and they had three different guys and Gus Edwards is scoring and there you go.

And then in the playoff.

Game they fell down early and it was like, Lamar, throw us out of this thing, and.

It didn't happen.

But that also happened several years earlier when they played the Chargers in a playoff game in the in the wild card round or a few years back or divisional round a few years back in Baltimore and they fell apart and it was like Michael Crabtree suddenly is getting every look because they have maddened the run game. Running ball is part of football. And if you know the Ravens the way they play, it's Lamar Henry. They do all this suf they moved the ball up field. I'm questioning though, because.

Gus Edwards was really good for them and.

The Gus Buss like had a roll and now they're like, we're gonna go for the flashier Derek Henry and everyone's like, oh, fantasy football, Derek Henry, all this thing Lamar and Derek Henry. I don't know where I sit between Kobe and Shack or let's wait and see. Because the Titans, this was a Hall of Fame player and they let him walk out the door and it is cool.

Will be in Shack. I'm gonna stand by that one. I'm gonna really hold to that. Well, you guys can hold me to it. There's just a different presence. No disrespect to Gus. Gus is an amazing running back, but he doesn't bring the same type of or command the same type of attention as a Derrick Henry.

Yeah, that's really good. So it's circa Lakers shack arriving. We're gonna hold you to it, making sure.

And I like this.

It's specific. We've seen many different versions of this.

I give you a trivia question.

Thus Edwards, what team do you think he ended.

Up with his new NFL team? He is on the Vikings.

He's on the Los Angeles Chargers. You'll be seeing him today. Harbaugh's brother took him and said, I'll take him. We'll be just fine.

He'll be our bet.

Wow, Okay, all right, maybe I will see him today.

I'll be like I knew you were on the Charge.

All right? Coming up on MP. The Eagles are. They're in the weight room. They're working. We're going to take you to Philadelphia, not to the weight room. The bar is bent. That's that's how they go. Judy Batista, Michael Robinson are they're getting lockerloaded in Philadelphia. We're gonna get a closer look at the Birds and how they're feeling flat.

Also, hey, how much you squat?

Peter? Not a lot?

What about you?

Ky? I'll rip my pants if I do it.

Tyreek Hill ninety is that one of those questions act why.

You just wanted us to ask me back? No squad bar. That's good.

Kyle Coloradill was in the ninety nine Raiding Club for Matten.

We're gonna talk video games after this. I love video games. So do you stay tuned? How us some.

Squad as the bar?

Good football?

Hey, we're back on Good Morning Football. We are loving.

What is that? That's not in La, that's silly us.

That's Philly. Thank you, my goodness. I'm like all thrown off. What's up Philadelphia? Don't laugh at me? I'm rob all right, I'm I'm I'm trying to promote. I'm trying to promote our new place at our new studio. And I saw a bridge and we're coming from New York, which has all the bridges and the tunnels, and I haven't slept. I got a new worn at home. It's all good.

We have a bridge. But that's not it.

Okay, that's okay, great, that's that's my Robinson. We love him. There's study Patista. They're in Philadelphia, which is where that bridge was. Guys, get me out of here. We're gonna start Judy with you. New Eagles running back of course we see the name sapon Barkley. We want to see this new rendition of him within this game and within this division. Is it going to fulfill itself that way for Eagles fans?

Well, first of all, it's great to see all of you, Jamie. I can't believe you forgot on the East coast already, but we are here in Philadelphia. The Eagles are putting on the pads for the first time today, which means we're going to get a much better view of that running game. M rob I thought it was interesting something that Nick Sirianni told reporters here yesterday. Though he really likes how Jalen Hurts has looked so far in practice, really accurate, and one thing he pointed out in particular was that when the pressure comes, Jalen has been really good about sliding his feet and throwing the check down pass too, among others Saquon Barkley. That was an issue for them last year when the offense were struggling handling the pressure. So you're already seeing the early impact of Sequin's presence here.

Well, Judy, you know, whether you throw the ball sixty yards in the air down the field, or you throw it two yards in the air to a explosive running back like Saquon Barklayn he goes sixty, it still shows up the same in the stat book. And that's when you have a guy like a Saquon Barkley. I believe he's still in his prime. I believe he's still a guy that's gonna get you eleven hundred and twelve hundred yards a season. I mean, think about I mean twenty scrimmage touchdowns over the last couple of years.

To me, he's gonna be Jalen Hurt's best friend. Meaning the running game.

I mean, the passing game for the Philadelphia Eagles should start with a run threat from Jalen Hurts. So whenever Jalen puts the football in the stomach of a sa Quon Barkley, the entire defense all eleven sets of eyeballs on the other side, they have to palls, they have to slow down because if Saquon gets the football with the lane, he has the ability to go eighty.

So I think this is going to work out for him.

Guys, we know the Saquan's In addition, and first of all, great to see both of you.

Love both your faces.

We also know that Vic Fangio is an addition kind of a return because he was there there in that Super Bowl prep a couple of years ago.

You guys are on the grounds.

What are you hearing about the Eagles defense, which was a liability at the end of last season.

Oh my god, Peter, liability is a great word. Are you being concent man? It was yeah, understated, man, it was terrible toward the end of last season and especially this past defense is getting hot out here, Jude, I'm starting to sweat a little bit, but it's all good as human. Y'all talk about that seventy degrees over in California. We're out here sweating it out, but it's all good. Big fans year on his defense, I'm telling you he usually has a two safety.

High type of a defense, right, And.

When you have that too safety high, what it does is it forces an opposing offense to have to take the check down to go on a ten eleven, twelve play drive, and that's when offenses usually have the mistakes. I love a big fan, Joe. He's gonna settle this defense down. He's gonna make them a little bit more disciplined, right, they're gonna be in their run lanes, and they're not gonna give up those big explosive passes that we're accustomed to see in this defense give up late last season.

And one of the very few positional battles they have going on here is a cornerback opposite Darius Slay. So that's the thing to keep an eye on when laughing. We're gonna tell him down.

Stop laughing.

She's in an air conditioned studio here laughing at you while you're slaughtering. And she's got maker, she's got making catering seven glam Squad members, and she's laughing at you so wrong.

So I'm so sorry. Need to see myself out of the segment immediately, and Rob, I love you, come back and say with us sometimes Okay, yes, ma'am, get us out of here.

Thank you, guys, you're awesome.

Thank you so much. You'll be in Philly all day. We'll be checking in with you. Guys are both tremendous. Stay cool, and please, Mike, do not shy away from that TWLLL.

You deserve that. That's good. You do your thing.

I'm not good.

We're gonna say here, we're gonna get to Shery Burst with the news.

Shery, what's up?

Well, it did a bad moment to mention that's kind of brisk out here in the shadow of Sofi Stadium. Sorry, I'm rob all right to your headlines. Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow debuting a new blonde look at training camp. He's also been able to do something else at camp he hasn't done many of the years past practice healthy. He joined Bridget Condon and Brian Foldinger on Inside Training Camp Live and gave an update on how he's feeling.

Yeah, I feel great. I'm excited about where I'm at. I think we have a great plan to keep me healthy through this training camp. Feeling as good as I can. Into week one. I'm feeling really good, getting better day by day. You know, that's what training camp is for. Anytime you're come back from injury, that there's hurdles that you want to get over and we're clearing those.

Meanwhile, Formers Titan quarterback Ryan Tannehill waiting he should lead to find a new team.

As training camps for all on, he told the Scoop.

City podcast he's staying in shape and staying ready in case the team comes calling. Dan Hill spent twelve seasons in the NFL. That's with the Titans and Dolphins, started one hundred and fifty one games. Then brock perty beginning his third season with the forty nine ers. He's healthy in camp as well, after being limited following elbow.

Surgery last year.

His tied at George Kittle talked to Omar Ruiz and David Carr about what he's liking about his quarterback this season.

I just like how he does a good job.

Like when you're not a six foot four quarterback, you kind of get lost behind the line of scrimmage sometimes behind the big offs lineman. He does a really good job of like finding the gap and then so you can still see him as he's throwing in the football, And I think that's key.

Doesn't out of nowhere. It just doesn't come out of nowhere.

And he does that every once in a while too, but like because there's nothing to do about it, but like he does a good job of like finding that gap and just throwing it right through there, and it makes it really easy as wide receiver to track the ball and then catch it going full speed right well.

Kyle started our GMFB La debut with a bang on the floor, but it has a thinking of some big falls. We're taking a look at them next day with us.

My wife suggests that I start the show today doing the Jean Wilder Willy Wonka walk, where here's I'm injured, and then I do a summersault right into the living room. But then I would probably just get hurt again. That's how the show started. And for the last four months we have had the full strength of the NFL media machine supporting this show, building this show, having us in this incredible sets in Los Angeles, and in the first five seconds I literally fell on my butts. I'm really flattered that so many of you thought that that was on purpose, including by so many, I mean all three people at the table thought that I was, Oh, Kyle's up to his old hijinks.

It wasn't hijinks. Even me.

I would not come out and fall and not undignified of a matter, how undignified.

Let's take a look. Come on up to the big board.

Here, thank you, farmer's dog, out my baton, here, beautiful mosaic NFL.

Neon and here it comes in bam.

So yeah, well, listen at this age when you fall, or even when you turn your head too fast.

Do I have an injury? Let me do a quick inventory. At this point, I'm making sure my affairs are in order, like, honey, we have a will, like I might be just done.

Yeah, thea that I would come out and do this on purpose, No, it's I can't. All I can say is I was outside on the fake field and there's this majestic morning do here in southern California.

Got to bottom my shoes and I don't know some.

Wise that's on sets, spreading pancake better on the floor.

I don't know why.

I can't believe those guys didn't fall unfreeze it. That's a hell of a shot right there. And then I get up and it's just it's this is again.

Am I all right? Everything's fine? Checked it you? I got checked. I checked it with God. I was going upstairs. I ripped this off. I have the tag on the jersey, we have my belly button.

And then I'm clapping to encourage myself more than anything.

That's all right.

You ever have a thing if you're a dad or mom or something something like that happened to me fall in the ice, you're like, oh God, what's broken, what's ripped?

Nothing? The real miracle?

All right?

This guy, though, liked it, big draft, energy, subtle.

The most Kyle Branch thing to do is have an angry fall this morning on Jim.

If you come back to Hen you look at this three words. I love this.

My favorite Twitter reaction I'm going to show is this guy saying, here's Brandt starting the new era of Good Morning Football. And it was a clip of Rogers running out with the flag with the jazz. Really went there, but also they got some media attention. Just run back the fall, keep looping. I want to read that's from some media sources here awful announcing reviewing the show re debuting yesterday. The show didn't go off without a hitch, though, as Brandt failed.

To keep his footing. That's what we can call that. I think he was footing.

And also, like Barrett Media, following the fall, Schrager articulated that Brandt probably planned this for several weeks. Again, I'm flattered that you think everything I do is on purpose calculated that articulated. Sure, Peter's articulating in eight years. He did say it at that point, and apparently Peter, they done you up nice like that? So all kinds of reactions, all kinds of fun. I did not do it on purpose. Now listen, I have torn my achilles shooting a commercial for this show. I have chipped my front two doing angry runs for the show. At some point I will have a serious injury again. It's going to happen. I'm gonna try not to. It makes everybody nervous, But this wasn't it. I don't see this as a bad thing. I see it as really like a miracle that I wasn't injured at this and I think someone up there is helping us out. Now I might fall during this segment and then the joke will be over. But guys, you were there, we were part of this intro.

What did you think of when it happened.

First off, I didn't know that you chipped your two.

I did with a wine bottle.

I mean, if we could just rewind it one more time, yeah, pause from in the area right before as you're falling, I thought you tore your I thought you tore your your achilles, and he.

Was off And these are great though I can't believe it, but they're fine. I just want to also pull back the curtain a little bit. This says a lot about our staff and our crew.

I'll just tell you this now, this was all pre shot.

It was played as if it was going to be live, so we taped it before the show started. Someone could have said, now let's do this over, Branches, the Barrett himself.

Everyone just goes looks good to me. We got it in one.

Take, and I was like, doesn't anyone think that maybe we should just do this over and no one will ever know and I'll run out with a little more dignity.

Everyone in my ear, No, it's fine, you look cool? Do I?

How marry you?

Peter? What do you think Jamie? Get in here? Do we make the.

Prestigious publication like awful announcing?

If you don't fall? I think we have all got to get into double A.

Kyle, there is a fear. There is a fear that in Los Angeles. You know, it's very sanitary here, and we're like, everyone's too fancy for their own good. You stripped us down. We appreciate that you brought us back to reality relatability.

Yes, yes, this isn't some big fancy TV show.

It's us. We still do garbage like that.

Okay, what set you this? Ship your tooth back in angry Runs. I was giving one to Zach Sharboney of the Seahawks, and I said, he has charbonat Chardonnay, and I had a bottle of wine and I drank from it so aggressively that I bunked my front tooth.

And I don't think I have dental coverage.

I'm screwed.

We want to put this in context, though, amongst some other falls. All right, so I'm not the first person here in this NFL world to fall. Here's what we're gonna do, guys. The Olympics are going on. It's Olympic style. You got your wife boards. I'm gonna show you some other falls, okay, and then maybe we'll compare him to mine, or we'll rank them.

Like a figure skating score. First one up. Let's go to a former MVP nowworking.

For CBS, Matt Ryan on the Atlanta Falcons.

Let me see the videotape.

Here we go, Matt Ryan's going to pitch it to Dante Freeman. He's gonna reverse his I'll watch Matt Ryan at the bottom of the screen. He's gonna help out there. He goes and he just come on, Matt, Matty Ice looks like he slipped on some right here and done, guys, Let's go to the table, Matt. Matt Ryan always love when quarterbacks try to help out with the blocking ten being the worst fall of all time zero bt.

He actually looks cool. How do you rate that turn?

Monster? Right there? I'm gonna go seven point four right there? He looks for very unathletic on that one, though.

Okay, okay, I went seven to five as well, because you know what I liked about it.

Matt had a nice laugh afterwards.

It wasn't like he was trying to be too cool for school. I like humility in my quarterbacks when they make foolish plays.

Seven point five.

We love the imperfections here and perfectly mar at work. I had it at a seven eight. I took two points off because no one touched him on the way down. So Kyle, similar to yours, like what even made you fall? I can't quite decipher it? So he goes five.

Eight points back to you, Jamie. I like that we can't even have markers. That works part of our charm. And yeah, yeah, I got no markers. Next a guy that Matt Ryan lost to in the Super Bowl Ones. In overtime Tom Brady currently working for Fox Tom Brady, they decided to split him out as a wide receiver. I think Leonard Fournette through him. Oh it was intercepted.

This is in London.

They did win the game, but this was a rough look for Brady, y similar to my faulty.

I'm right, I am standing right here as this right where your shoe just was. I have a foot cell phone footage because I thought he had lined up earlier in the game and I was like, wait, I want to take footage of this, So this is my cell phone video. I'm like, this is right, He's going to make this catch. I'm in Germany.

Down down. Yeah.

I got sued by the NFL for about a billion dollars for taking a legal footage from the sideline without a being licensed.

But it's our show. We can work here the building.

Peter, Jamie, you know what, though, sideways, I'm not Jamie shooting sideways.

You're a television person. Rank that one, you.

Know, I'm gonna rate that one an eight point two. I think Tom Brady planned that one. I think he really Yeah, he played that one like.

You that I go eight five, all articulated for all funouncing.

I go eight five, Brady, the granatest of all time.

Little again, humanity.

This is this is that we all come mess up.

I'm going to give it a ten. Cinematography that was good as well shot.

All right, well, listening, Jamie's not.

Supposed to Actually, you know what it is to write my score like this because it's in the vertical.

Right, Jami, you might want to save the ten because this this.

Is really like we have Daniel Jones. Do we have it? Peter, how about articulate of you? Right now?

Let's go to Daniel Jones Giants Eagles.

Here we go, my favorite. He's having a big moment. I'm in the NFL. I'm playing in prime time. Go ahead and roll it, please.

I'm playing in primetime against the Eagles. Oh my god, you guys, look up far and running, look out, faster running.

This is crazy. This is happening. I'm totally gonna score a touchdown. This is the coolest moment.

I'm like, no, oh, dj unbelievable. Actually are knocking was worse than it for him. Let's go back to the table because this is a great one. Saquon was up in the boot then a giant openly laughing about it.

Where do you go with this one? This? This is just fantastic.

Yeah, you know what I had forgotten about?

You know, I'm going to go ten point eight eight? Where's number eight? So he's over that.

That was embarrassing, as if as if the media doesn't pick on Daniel Jones enough.

Now, yeah, I should give him a thumbs up for it. We and we out because it was he was supposed to win the summer this offseason or something and like that. I had him as winning and now he's out on this. So yeah, I'll give him a ten to a proper ten. I guess I'll take it down, all right.

Well, there's only one left. Welcome the new member to the NFL Fall Club. Go ahead and roll it, everybody. This is the one. I think Daniels had enough And here we go July. It is really bad. You know what awkward. I'm at some point like I'm a I'm in here with the knees here. You never remember want that.

That's even right.

Now, I might injure myself doing it. So you never want the fold back like a chair rough.

Hey, Kyle, that's the a CL move right there, the PCL, the NCL and all the other c A, DVD.

M R, yeah, WGN, all those Yle, you guys go blame the production staff for not saying we should redo this. You had a chance, when you were laying on your back in the middle of the taping to say, can we rerack that? Why didn't you opt to start?

Always finishes the take. It's not my job to stop the tape. I keep going until the director yells cut. The director's going no, it's great, it's awesome. You get out here.

Even right now, literally they're saying it wasn't great? Was it? Was it? Not a camera guy who laugh? They didn't do squat when I fell out, Kyle.

Notice all the people who ran out to come help me up, they're not in the shot at all because everybody's laughing and filming it with their phones.

World Star. I mean, come on, somebody give me a help. Go back to the table, get away from that.

I was gonna help you. What happened was.

What had happened was I'm gonna give it a ten.

Yeah, and it's a ten because we're here twenty four hours later and we're doing this instead of talking about Joe Burrows hair, and I appreciate it ten point zero.

Great content, content is king.

That's why we love you, Kyle.

You're kind of giving me a load of gun though with that, like me nearly getting injured as king.

Why don't I just jump off the thing and ba legs. It'll be a great segment. That's it.

Love you, Daniel Jones, I mean it. See you later, somebody else take the bump them out of here.

Speaking of Daniel Jones, we'll just take one more gander at this. You know, if you were playing Madden, there is a button that you could probably press that this is how the game would go. But why would anybody do with that when they're playing the video gametimes?

You dive when you don't mean to. You press the square.

There you go?

Actually, there you go?

Is how little I know Madden. I don't even know they're gonna die.

I had a chance to get my first touchdown and I fail. Turf monitor, No, my legs just got heavy. I was so excited.

Later leg I got heavy. His legs got it.

But like you have the quarterback of the Giant Good all right?

Perfect pair present about EA Sports MVP Bundle Peter JJ McCarthy.

Look at him go first time on the field and he's in Madden and it's.

A completionion JJ. And then then we got bone Nicks. What's Denver got going this year? They're gonna be fascinating, excited.

To see this is a dog. I went up to go see him at Oregon.

Yeah.

Yeah, my son went to Oregon. Yeah, man, amazing all right.

And then we got the Vet Josh Covid one headed back.

Yeah, and Cold One Play is gonna get sold mine.

Listen, this is one of the biggest summers of video games in history. At college you have Madden. You can get both of them together. It includes EA Sports College Football twenty five and Matt NFL twenty five. It's like Oppenheimer and Barbie together in the same South.

You get both in the bundle of.

Pete's awesome and the player's names are in college football. Oh yes, oh.

Yes, yes, I would love that.

Man.

That's dope right there.

That's incredible.

Do you play with Texas and then immediately put Archie I've already bench or is yeah, I'm putting in I'm we.

Love one of the bedrocks.

Over the years here of Good Morning Football, then we used to do it exclusively in New York. Was We love talking video games, love talking NBA, I like talking movie. We love talking video games, and we have a lot of nostalgia for it. Let's get into it now as the new Madden twenty five is out. Who is your favorite all time Madden player? Like the player, the figure you were just so into our bar, you know.

For me, I would have to go with the nineteen ninety four ninety five Jerry Rice San Francisco forty nine ers. It was the all time. Like I was a basketball dude growing up, so I only knew a couple of guys, Dan Marinos, one guy I love. But Jerry Rice was then easy. It was like he was the cheek cood in Madden. I mean you just threw it to him and no matter what was around him, he was gonna catch it, you know what I mean? Like that was he was a dog. It should have been illegal to play with Jerry Rice. He was that good.

I know.

It was kind of one of those things you frown to find, like don't be bond in Golden Eye.

It's kind of a jointing.

This is from the Jerry Rice Atari era right here, that's really all.

Darrel.

I played the most video games of my life, not as a child, not not as elementary school, but in college, you know, because we had n sixty four at the time, and we would play a Golden Eye and we play Mario Karp.

We played a lot of Madden.

So in the late nineties, my favorite Madden player was Kishan on the Jets show Sean Johnson and it was the Vinny Testaverty Jets and Keishan was big number nineteen.

This is a little bit before.

That, but they had just introduced the animation in Madden where you could reach up and make a one handed catch, and if you threw the quick slant to Kishan, it worked so well and a lot of times he would one hand it and it was just those cool Kelly Green type green jerseys. And I was pulling a school in New Jersey at the time, so he was right up there.

And I'm watching Glenn Foley throw bombs to Kishon right now, and I saw it.

Holy did I see Boomer? Did Boomer?

Bloomer is Lefty.

That's Beryl Donald, that's the old that's o'donald throw me the damn ball.

He had a lot of quarterbacks. He had a book too, that was the name of the book.

I loved Kishon Peter. I have a feeling you're not going to go stock.

I can't say Priest Holmes with everybody.

Oh, it's not going to be Bo or Ladanyan or Priest who were all great.

I loved the four version of Madden with Michael Vicken on the cover and of course Michael Vick the cheek code and all this. But if you played with the Falcons enough, which everyone did, you started the fall for the other guys, and it was t J. Duckett and work done in the backfield. There's Algie Crumpler at tight end. But then there was a wide receiver who was only a seventy seven rating. His name was Brian Finneran. And if you know, you know Brian Finneran on the Atlanta Falcons in Madden.

O four was unstoppable.

This is him. He wore eighty six.

Peerless Price was the one wide receiver who was your deep threat.

But Finneran.

I would put up four hundred yards a game with Brian Finneran.

Brian Finneran, now I believe is in the media and Atlanta if he's watching if something gets this to him, let him know that at one point in my life, you were my Jerry Rice.

You were my Justin.

Jefferson, Jordan Jefferson.

You were the guy that I would go to Justin Jefferson, Jordan and Jefferson.

John Jeffs like little hyperbolic, isn't this.

I would put up three hundred yards every week with Brian Finneran and we would win Super Bowl. So Brian Finneran was my favorite Pokay.

He looked like he was six ' ten. It was amazing Kirk out there in a whisky.

But here's the thing. We one thing to have the players, to have the game, have the system. You got to go to the playbook. Yeah, oh, everybody had their play or there are two or three plays. They're like, I'm going to run this fifteen times in this game. Draw up on your whiteboard, your Madden play. That was your thing when you played. I'm going to start because I got a little head start. I have it right here. There was a play that always worked and it was called this. It was called angle, yes, and angle is all right, I'm going to all these guys were just running button hooks something like that. But all you're looking for is this running back who would run the angle route over the middle, and it would be someone completely unfair like Marshall Falk, and this linebacker wasn't covering him even when the player would know it was coming and take control personally of that linebacker. If it's third and six, you better believe I'm hitting Falk right over the middle. Angle worked for me every time Peter went in a very similar vein.

I love throwing of those running backs I mentioned it was always work done. But Priest Holmes and Ladanian Tomlinson, and for a while there, when I was playing with my.

Giants as a kid, it was Tiki Barber and it was the.

Weak flood week flood, weak flood. This guy right here would come out.

Everyone's going this way.

Tiki number twenty one would be right there.

You dump it the tiki.

It's a twenty yard game.

If you know, you know weak flood and Madden the best play for the running I.

Don't be afraid of strong flood. I like strong flood.

You know, if you had Jerry Rice, you already knew right cover two you could attack that middle of the field. I was going to go eleven personnel right here, where's my camera, I'm going eleven personnel, I'm going deep posts with Jerry Rice here up to the top. I mean he hit that middle of the field and you couldn't stop him right there. I mean, this was, to me was one of the best plays in Madden.

Unbelievable. It's a great one. It's going to work every single time.

Shoutouts to the other grades like split flats, corners, and of course if we're talking NFL blitz, it would be du Bob. But last question, I remember vividly years and years ago when it first came out that the Madden create a player.

Okay, because you can create a.

Player, you can make what he looks like, what his name is, especially when gear he likes. How because muscles were what were the tenets of creative player for you guys?

You know? For me, I was always assessed obsessed with height six six. I'm sixty six, Michael Jordan was sixty six, and I always wanted to have, you know, Caul Colgan with six six as well, three hundred and five pounds.

Aren't you actually six y five?

Because if you google it online, like, what aren't you actually six ' five?

Bro? What are we doing here? Why would you do that to me?

I am trying to do.

I'm six six. That's what it says that my driver's license.

But if you google it online, yeah, Wikipedia says six ' five. Though. I don't think you are six six.

I think you wanted to be because Jordan was and everyone wanted to be six six, and I think you came up short.

Am I wrong?

You're wrong. I will not announce this this morning on the team. Why would you do that to me?

Bro?

I think this is my heart test too much. I am six six, all right, I'm six nine.

Guess what sounds like a segment tomorrow?

We have a tape measure?

Okay, we have a basketball room, Yeah, and we just see what ten feet looks like.

And then we have acbar underneath the rim.

And we just do the tape measure and we see it for six six or six pot.

I think I think he wants to be six six.

No, I am six six. That's what it said in the good Enough for you. The media guy says, oh, six six.

Those are always right, Yeah, those for right? Yeah.

Drivers, I'll show you my driver's license. My driver's license says I'm six to six.

Okay, man, if I worked hard for this.

At the DMV, they say, how t are you say?

I didn't do a full.

Medical examination at the DMV, they don't even look at your eyes?

Are you an organ dawner? And also, how did you like to make your player just get six five or other?

I like to come up with the good names. Right here, thought thought, delicious is my guy and he's sixty six, three hundred five pounds. I was always obsessed with that height, and the name has to be ridiculous, so thought thou delicious. I like sixty six, three hundred five pounds linebacker.

I like it.

Yeah, I remember I made a guy named Bo Williams. Okay, and Bo Williams was a creative player that was four foot eleven, five hundred pounds and he actually had no other skills except kick power was ninety nine. He was my kicker out had this little fat guy Bo, Sorry not saying fat, this little what would be the word.

If I don't even know anymore?

Yeah, I don't know Roton, Yeah, sure, he's four eleven, five hundred pounds.

I could say he was a.

Heavy set, heavy set, and he would boot the ball over the field and I would just kick fielders from seventy yards of Bot Williams.

You know you couldn't say the F word.

He means that the three letters. I don't even go him. We have he's six six, like I'm one eighty. So we're good. It's fine. Check this out. Look up at closely that hold on. They going on.

But born six foot five, which is one point ninety six meters.

Two seven is wrong.

This is wrong foot five. No, somebody went and edited my Wikipedia diages. That is wrong. I am six six. I just took a physical yesterday and it said I was six six.

Peter, imagine how I'm s curre. You'd have to be the live about your height. Come.

I mean, it's not even like some person who got you know, they're five to four and they're like, I'm five six on their dating app like you're six five.

Just roll with that. It's pretty cool.

From six six six.

From North Carolina, Michael John.

You can't steal my dream for me, man.

I'm six six. You know what I think? I think you're six four. I'm just gonna keep knocking you down.

We're in Los Angeles. We're gonna send you out to our inside training camp crew in Cincinnati, checking in with us from Bengals camp. What's happening with people.

And welcome back to Good Morning Football.

We celebrated your return by enjoying the Cincinnati Bengals here at the Bengals facility.

What was your big takeaway?

My big takeaway is that Joe Burrow looks great. We haven't seen him out here on the practice field during training camp for a lot of his career, but he's out here. He's throwing the ball. You wouldn't know that he had risk surgery to the naked eye. He looks great, and this team wants that Super Bowl. We talk to a couple of different guys and they say there's not necessarily an added pressure, but the thought is there. We understand that t Higgins is on the franchise tag, Jamar Chase is dealing with contract negotiations. Every year, your team changes, right, and they feel like they got to get it done this year. You can sense that they want to get back to the Super Bowl and this time bring home to the Marty.

I think they feel confident.

I mean, I think as long as Joe Burrow is playing like he is right now and.

The way that he feels he elevates everybody around him, and I feel like this is a confidence football team when there's a health Joe Burrow.

That's so so fun to see all the people out here appreciate he talked to you guys. Fans instantly went bananas. And we're looking forward to bring in me more Inside Training Camp in fact coming up tomorrow, Colleen Wolf hosting from ox Start.

We're gonna get some Cowboys coverage.

Also live with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Live interviews coming up with Justin Jefferson as well as Sean Payton.

That's all coming up.

Eight more hours of Inside Training Camp Live coming your way today on NFL Network.

Why does it feel like he's actually lifting when he says eight more hours of Insight Training Camp.

Live's greatl Oh?

What is this lest anyone wasn't watching less segment? I think this is pretty weird.

But och Bar claims that he stands six ft six inches tall. I don't think he does. Let's make this work, Yeah, so ock Bar Turner here, profile the camp. It's profile the camp. All right, Peter, you you.

Hold this up? What happens when I'm right?

Okay?

Tst of all your shoes.

You got to take your shoes just to shoe.

Oh yeah right, we're got to take the shoes off by the wall.

We can just some trap. What do you have you got to you got a two inch lift here?

I think with shoes on ice, it is bending. This is I say, it's seventy nine inches, so that's six foot six foot seven with the shoes.

This is a two inch shoe, So this is a two inch su I'm actually taller.

You just said, I mean make the.

Math makes shoes was off man.

We don't want to show your fair Okay, look, okay, actually no.

You don't know. Okay, well awkwards moving all the sudden.

Oh I think we're
