Speaker 1 (00:04):
Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in
partnership with iHeartRadio.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Welcome to Good Morning Football, everybody.

Speaker 3 (00:11):
It's Tuesday, August twenty six.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Jamie r at All manto with the super Charges Incursive
shirt on. Isaiah standback wearing the star. We have a
partner in our clothing decisions today, so bear with us.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
Oh no, soone's talking to us morning.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Yes, fine, Isaiah, Kyle. Business was handled yesterday in the
NFL just as we got off the air. So that
means you must be locked and loaded for takes on news.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Around the league.

Speaker 4 (00:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
Thanks, We've been talking about for weeks, for months.

Speaker 4 (00:44):
It's all coming to a head. Guys.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
There is football in nine days, and we got big
stars with big contracts.

Speaker 4 (00:50):
In big moments.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Let's get into It's Good Morning Football Tuesday.

Speaker 5 (00:52):
Let's row good football.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
Yeah, that's right, j MTB, everybody, Jamie.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Mantai, Kyle, Isaiah. Before we get to the NFL news,
I'm always wondering, when there's so much that's going on
in the NFL around the country, how does the New
York Post handle things?

Speaker 3 (01:22):
Kyle? What's your post test today?

Speaker 1 (01:24):
With the giant shirt that you're wearing well, listen, this
is America and twenty twenty five football rules the world.
And that's why we have a Mets backup catcher on
the back of the New York You got a couple
of RBIs or something like that.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
I mean, what are we doing here, guys?

Speaker 1 (01:37):
The James and Giants could be fourteen and on and
we're still showing the Mets. I just post your old
fashioned I respect it, but we like our football in
this country.

Speaker 4 (01:45):
Come on, come join us.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
Perhaps it's because a divisional foe figured out their business
as one of their star wide receivers and they just
don't want to acknowledge it. And they also had the
tour to force headline just in the hopper.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
They had to use it before the season ended.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Ian Rappidbor, good morning to you, rap Sheet. Joining us
as our NFL network insider this morning, so I can
allude to it only so many rap Sheet Terry McLaurin,
the contract drama is resolved.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
What are some of the details in Washington's right?

Speaker 6 (02:10):
This was the big news to start what was a
wild wild yesterday the day before cutdown, David, A lot
of teams were handling business the Washington commanders for sure
handled their main piece of business. Terry mcclaurin, who had
been one of the NFL's most high profile hold inms.
During the course of trading, Camp agreed to terms on
a three year deal with up to ninety six million

(02:31):
dollars That is more than thirty million dollars per year
based on new Money max value as far as the
base value, still do not have word on what that
is or the minunderstanding is it is closer to thirty
million dollars per year new money.

Speaker 7 (02:43):
He had wanted the thirty three million dollars of.

Speaker 6 (02:46):
DK metcalf, similar productivity, same draft costs.

Speaker 7 (02:49):
They didn't quite get there.

Speaker 6 (02:50):
Terry mccauran a little bit older, perhaps that is why.
But I think for the Washington Commanders, they reward.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
A really good player.

Speaker 7 (02:56):
They're happy to move forward.

Speaker 6 (02:57):
With mcclaur and he gets a thirty million dollars signing.
Monus requested to be traded along the way.

Speaker 7 (03:02):
They never wanted to trade him. They want to him
to play for.

Speaker 6 (03:05):
Them, and you really felt like this was going to
be in a good place when he started ramping up
to get back onto the field, started the process of
gearing up to practice.

Speaker 7 (03:15):
Now the contract is done.

Speaker 6 (03:16):
We'll see what the final terms are, probably today, but
the contract is done. Mclauran is going to be officially
with the commanders going to sign that today and everyone
can move forward with all eyes on week one.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
It's what Washington fans have known rap sheets, So it
must be comforting for them to know that Terry mclaurin's
going to be there now for the next couple of
seasons and compensated accordingly. The commanders now know that Jaden
Daniels has his ultimate weapon offensively moving forward, which is
great since Jayden Daniels is still on the chief If
you will, man Tai, how do we feel about the
commanders now ahead of prediction week, ahead of the opening

(03:47):
weekend of the regular season, that Terry.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
McLaurin deal is done.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
Let's go. It's time to win, now, boys, It's time
to win.

Speaker 8 (03:54):
Like this is you have to your point, Jayden, I mean,
Jayden's Jamie, You're my security plan.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
If I were Jayden Daniels, I would just be thrilled
beyond believe.

Speaker 8 (04:02):
You're my security blank So you have the security blanket
back for Jayden Daniels. Right, you add that to Deebo Samuel.
You add that to zach Ertz. You know that trader,
Brian Robinson Junior to the forty nine ers. That backfield
just cleared up a little bit. You have Eckler there.
It's going to be beautiful.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
Guys.

Speaker 8 (04:20):
It's from a defensive standpoint when you're looking at this
commander's offense. You have one of the most electric quarterbacks
in the league right now, young quarterbacks in the league.
You have a guy like Scary Terry who has tortured
you for years and years. Now all of that has
come to fruition as of last year for him personally,
not only from his production, but from the overall team success.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
You add Deevo to that equation. Who's their gadget man.

Speaker 8 (04:44):
You saw what he was able to do with the
forty nine Ers and zach Ertz coming in live late,
especially in the NFC Championship game. Guys, it's going to
be scary over there in Washington. I know they start
with those guys in blue with the New York Giants.
What a way to start the season off for them.
I'm excited at Isaiah. I can't wait to see it. Now,
Scary Terry's back on my fantasy Football Radar, I'm going
to draft to you, probably in the fourth round, third

(05:06):
fourth round. I think it's going to be so I
can't wait. I know Commanders fans can't wait.

Speaker 4 (05:11):
So let's go. Well, Scary Terry hopefully should have been
always on your draft board because he should. Regardless of
what team he might have been playing for, he was
going to be a dude. I am elated that they
got this deal done. I am happy for him. How
you talk about somebody who was literally the gold standard
for a receiver, the gold standard for somebody within your organization.

(05:32):
Understand what this dude's been through since he came into
twenty nineteen for the Washington Commanders. This dude has played
for ten different quarterbacks, ten different quarterbacks. This dude has
played with this dude for the last five years and
had one thousand yards every season. You take care of
this man, You show the rest of your team under
this new ownership, exactly how we treat players who are loyal,
Exactly how we treat players who go about their business

(05:53):
the right way, and exactly how we treat players who
absolutely ball out and go about their business. Listen, this
guy is the one that they had to get done,
especially when you have a rookie quarterback who is the
on him, especially when you have a rookie quarterback who's
gonna be underneath his roocky contract. Give this guy the
bridge so you can take care of his business and
you can go ahead and solidify the rest of your team.
Go out there and win some ballgames. Washington.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
Yeah, listen, it's the band's back together. It's time to
jam now. Now they're all whole. And I feel like
this is the Jaydon Daniels deal as much as it
is Terry McLaurin deal. Jayde Daniel's gonna have big money
in the future, but right now, it's like he's celebrating today.
You do not want to put Jaydon Daniels out there
in year two when everyone's looking for the hashtag regression

(06:34):
and Ah, Mclaurin's not here.

Speaker 4 (06:36):
He's on another team.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
And I always I agree somewhat with the context of
Terry McLaurin, with what he's been through, all the quarterbacks,
all the coaches, different owners. Terry McLaurin played for something
called the Washington Football Team. Terry McLaurin was a redskin,
but put that aside, that's not why you get this deal.
You don't get this deal because you're a good guy
and you've been through a lot. You get this deal

(06:58):
because last year the Commander's played three playoff games and
Terry McLaurin had three touchdowns.

Speaker 4 (07:03):
You get this deal.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Because last year you led the NFL in contested catches.

Speaker 4 (07:08):
Think about that stat Think about that.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
Means when Jaden's running around and nobody's wide open, and
he's fighting against the defense and he's looking for a
guy and Terry's not open, he throws it to him anyway,
and Terry McLaurin gets it a contested catch. We've been
sitting here being like, wow, what if Terry's gone. We're
trying to talk ourselves into I've heard you guys do it.
I've tried to do it too, about like, well, maybe

(07:30):
Debo zach Ertz. Listen, Debo, you're gonna do big things
this year. I have huge respect for zach Ertz. That
is a drummer and a bassist. You need the lead guitarist.
You need someone to shred on lead guitar against number
one corners and great defenses. And that was not Deebo

(07:51):
or Ertz. That is a Terry McLaurin deal. With Jayden
being the lead singer, the band is back together. I
look at this team differently than I did twenty four
hours ago. Everything's possible this year for them, everything's possible.
They needed this guy in the field in the locker
room on third and Long.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
I couldn't quite put my finger on the parallel between
those two wide receiver one and two or A and B.
But leave it to Kyle for going lead guitarists and
bassis is what we all needed. Thank you for the
reference point. However, it does make me think of another
team in the NFL that we refer to often with
a prolific offense and specifically quarterback and two wide receivers,
and that's the Cincinnati Bengals, Isaiah. When I look at

(08:26):
the Commanders, I fear that the Commander's defense struggle at
times last season. So how does this look offensively for
such a potent offense, great young quarterback and great wide receivers,
But how do they counteract that with at times a
defense that struggled?

Speaker 4 (08:40):
You talking about the Washington Commanders, right, yeah? So I
mean the Washington Commander's defense is going to be solid
to me? I mean you think about exactly who they have.
They have Joe Witt Junior as their defensive coordinator. You
have Dan Quinn, a defensive mind to head coach who
we know is absolute Jedi. These guys have Bobby Wagner
back you know, wanted to will be a first ballot
Hall of Famer, really holding down the middle of that defense.
Defensive line has always been solid. That The issue has

(09:01):
always been just their secondary as of late. So I
think they're going to get that aspect figured out. I
don't really have a problem with that. These guys. They
gotta go find a way to go get the ball.
That's what dan Quinn's defenses are known for. Sea ball,
get ball, take the ball away. And if they can
do that, it really keep the offenses at bay. Then
the office office is gonna help them outrevendously. Well.

Speaker 8 (09:18):
The guy that they signed last year, Marshawn Latimore, used
to be a former teammate of mine, former Ohio State
Buck guy. You talked about Seaball, Go get ball. That guy,
that's all he's done his whole entire career. He was
a Defensive Player of the Year as a rookie. I
think he was, but I look at that defense. And
to your point, Isaiah, having dan Quinn there, I know
he's a head coach, but he's basically the guy who
oversees that defense to be able to have somebody like

(09:41):
von Miller to come in there against in an NFCE.
So you have all of these quarterbacks that like to
scramble and you want to keep them in the pocket.
Adding somebody like von Miller allowing him to patrol that
one side and keep those guys in the pocket. You
saw what he was able to do throughout his career.
I'm not worried about this, this commander's defense. I'm actually
really excited about going into year two with dan Quinn

(10:01):
and I'm looking forward to seeing those two linebackers in
the middle and Bobby Wagner and Frank lou wh will
kind of do their thing in Rome.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
So it's it's it's nice.

Speaker 8 (10:08):
It's nice for the NFC East, it's nice for Washington commanders,
it's nice for football fans.

Speaker 4 (10:12):
All right.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
So, as I mentioned, business was handled yesterday across the NFL.
Terry McLaurin gets resolved as well as Trey Henderson.

Speaker 3 (10:19):
Let's get rap sheet back in here.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
We got to keep talking about some of the headlines
speaking of the Cincinnati Bengals and their defense Trey Hendrickson.
It is synonymous at this point with what that defense
needs for success?

Speaker 3 (10:28):
What are the details in Cincinnati?

Speaker 4 (10:30):
That's right.

Speaker 6 (10:31):
One of the NFL's other high profile holdings also concluded
yesterday in a flurry of deals and trades and a
lot of craziness yesterday, right before a countdown, named Trey Hendrickson,
who Lisbon sitting out practice wanting a new contract.

Speaker 7 (10:45):
Has agreed to terms on a new deal.

Speaker 6 (10:47):
According to me and colleige Tom Pellisero, but it is
not an extension for Trey Henderson. It is instead a
one year, fourteen million dollar raise.

Speaker 7 (10:56):
It is a raise. So really, what the.

Speaker 6 (10:57):
Cincinnati Bengals did and Henderson did after discussing several options,
including a one year extension, a two year extension, they
were haggling him over guaranteed money. How much money would
they guarantee into the twenty twenty six and even into
the twenty twenty seven season to get him on the field.
To end this saga, what the Bengals decided to do,
We'll just cut off the last part of it. Give

(11:18):
him a raise this year reward one of the best
defensive players in the NFL, get it back on the
field and help their defense reach its potential, be exactly
what it should be, and then after this year all
sides move on. They still can't theoretically franchise Taging, although
the number is going to be exceptionally high. There's going
to be a lot to discuss with Hendrickson next year,
as he will likely be a free agent.

Speaker 7 (11:40):
But for this, for right.

Speaker 6 (11:41):
Now, Henderson is going to be back on the field
with the Cincinnati Bengals and their defense, and that is
a very very good thing, all right, rap She thanks.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
Let's drive down that street, though, because, as you mentioned,
it is odd to know that perhaps next summer we're
having this same conversation about Trey Henderson but on a
different team and what deal he might get. The point is, though,
is that he will be on the Bengals defense this season.

Speaker 3 (12:03):
MATI, So what does that mean to you?

Speaker 4 (12:05):
Well, I'm happy for Trey.

Speaker 8 (12:06):
I'm happy for Trey because he wanted more guaranteed money.
When I spoke to him, it was about to guaranteed
and he did say that he was willing to take less. Now,
I didn't think he was going to take a one year,
but I'm happy that he thought it was good enough
for him to come back. Now, as far as the
Cincinnati Bengals and that defense, guys, you need more help
than just Trey, That's the honest truth about it.

Speaker 4 (12:26):
And I think they know that.

Speaker 8 (12:27):
That's why they probably negotiated a one trying to give
them some space, trying to give them some cushion into
figuring out, Okay, how is the best way for us
to attack the holes on this defense because if anything, guys,
we learned in the preseason, like screw last year, just
the preseason alone. These guys can't stop to run for anything.
And I know Trey is the sack leader and all

(12:47):
of that. He had sent seventeen and a half sacks
for two years straight. Like keyword of sacks. This not
run stops, and they need run stoppers. That's what that
defense needs. With that offense that is potent, it's explosive,
They're going to put a lot of points on the board.
So I'm so happy for my brother Trey. I'm happy
that he found I saw a deal that was sufficient

(13:07):
for him at least for a year. I just think
that defensively, that Bengals defense in that division, it's going
to be it's going to be a challenge.

Speaker 4 (13:17):
Listen, if he's happy, I'm happy for him, But I
don't like this. I don't like this for him at all.
I think that he settled. I truly believe that he settled.
You talk about somebody who has shown you. They told
him that what you did was not enough. Right, he
went out there and led the league in sacks and said,
you know what, we need to see more. So he said, okay,
I'll come back and I'll do more. I'll do what
you ask. And when I do that, I want to

(13:39):
get the bread. All he did was come back and
lead the league again in sacks.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Right.

Speaker 4 (13:43):
So, over the last three years he is number two,
right behind Miles garrett On for sacks. Okay, in most sacks.
They said, you know what, a sorry, we just gave
these guys a bunch of money. We really don't have
nothing left for you. Everybody else who's doing what you're doing,
performing how you're performing at your position for multiple years
is getting forty plus million dollars. I don't like that

(14:03):
he settled for thirty And who am I to tell
him that he's settled. But I'm telling you right now,
I believe he's settled. He is worth more than what
he's playing for this year. He deserves to have some
security in terms of his finances, in terms of his future,
in terms of his his potential for injury risk. If
he goes out and gets injured this year, it is
no different to him than playing on a franchise tag.

(14:25):
Matter of fact, he's making less money than if he
were to be playing on a franchise tag. So I
don't like this for Henderson. I know the Bengals are
related right now because now they have him who they're
going to go ahead and run this out for this
last year for a discount, double check. And then they
have their Shermar Stewart who they drafted to go out
there and be his replacement. I know the Bengals are happy,
but I'm not happy for Trey Henderson. Yeah, this is

(14:46):
not some huge win for Trey Henderson. Guys like this.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
You're looking to say back thirty million bucks about it's great.

Speaker 4 (14:52):
This is a promise ring. It's what is this? This
is an engagement ring?

Speaker 1 (14:58):
Not really, it's just it's a promise that we will
get engaged. I promise, not really listen, good for him,
he's gonna be on the field. I'm not his agent,
doors accountant. I don't really care how much money Tree
Hendrickson has. I care how good the Bengals are going.

Speaker 4 (15:11):
To be this year.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
But listen, he has this great year and he has
eighteen sacks this season.

Speaker 4 (15:17):
They will franchise tag him. They will.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
It'll be expensive, but they'll do it. He's not that
great this year. And in fact, Shamar Stewart is good,
see you later. Like it's there's no scenario where the
Cincinnati Bengals give him a long term deal. So if
you really care about that, that's what gets you going
in the morning.

Speaker 4 (15:33):
Fine.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
I'm more about like, can the Bengals win a Super
Bowl this year? Now that they have their pass rusher?
Can the Bengals win a playoff? Can they get to
the playoffs? It's so much offense, And I still to
your point, nan'shy It's like he is a very good
pass rusher that is one of eleven, and he does
a very specific job that doesn't do all these other things.
It's like you have this barbecue platter and you got

(15:55):
your beef and your mac and cheese, and your mass
mataios and then there's like there's this little bit of
like Okra on the corner and it's like, well, there's vegetables.
You're good, it's healthy like that. Okra can only do
so much. Guys, I like Okra too. I can't compete
with with the try tip or whatever it may be.
That's just dominating the play. I still feel like they're
gonna have to score so many points this year. I

(16:17):
still hope that the defense is better and he will
be out there. That is a very good thing, But
the Okra cannot carry you to the AFC Championship game.
You need a lot more or just the mac and
cheet has to be that good fire.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
I find Okra to be quite bitter, which is what
the Bengals are trying to avoid with this guy being on.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
The defensive line. So you got to try it.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
That's a good point, just to put a bull stand
in situation with a lot of these stars. Terry mcluurrn
figured out, Trey Henderson figured out, but Michael Parsons stays
looming just thirty seconds. Isaiah on the State of the
Nation with Parsons and what it's like in the building
in Dallas, right now.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
All eyes on micro right now. Yeah, you know, I
know Mike is probably not happy with Widge just happened
with Tray Henderson because I know he was watching to
see exactly how that deal went down. And it doesn't
give him any security in the fact that he just
signed it and not even know it wasn't even extension,
it was just a raise. It was a little bump, right,
thirty million dollars when he should have been making forty million.
Talking about Trady that is. But Michae's deal still, I
don't think this is going to impact him too much.

(17:10):
He'll still get his deal done. He'll still be the
highest pay forty one plus million dollars I can imagine
per year from Michael coming up.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
All right, trust, it's a very difficult concept this time
of year, Johnny Utah, you got to earn trust. And
he was right, especially when we have not seen these
thirty two beautiful NFL teams play any real actual games
outside of the preseason.

Speaker 4 (17:34):
But they will soon.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
So to that point, we now as a group, the
four of us here at good Morning Football by Coastal,
we'll be talking about things in our life that we
trust implicitly up here on our ten, and then a
trust scale that we would hand our life to these things,
and then down here at our one, where like we
can't stand this, we have zero.

Speaker 4 (17:53):
Trust in this whatsoever. We will set the scale and
then we will pick.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
A quarterback and say where they land on that scale
from one to ten going into this year, how much
do you trust them or not trust them. We're going
to do this in two segments. Jamie Erdahl is going
to go first with her personal trust scale and then
her quarterback. Jamie, you've done this before. You're an upperclassman.
You got your varsity letter in this show us how

(18:18):
it's done.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
Thank you, Kyle.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
And with that, having my letter jacket with the trust scale,
little tipping scale patch sewn on the side here, I
will begin with something that I trust implicitly, my ten,
if you will, because with trust, I think also pair
with that is growth.

Speaker 3 (18:34):
I have found growth in this segment.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
There was a time that I did a trust scale
and I told the good people that watched Good Morning
Football that I do not trust jeans or denim I
just don't.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
I hate it. Uh oh, look out, I hate it.
I like sweatpants better.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Anyone who knows me and sees me out in the
wild knows that this is true.

Speaker 3 (18:51):
One hundred percent cotton right here. Now.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
I have grown to appreciate and trust something within the
Denham family, which is the Canadian tuxedo. I trust implicitly
the Canadian tuxedo. I think you can wear it with
heels and look so fancy.

Speaker 3 (19:08):
Guys, let's date this. This was yesterday on the show.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
The Canadian tuxedo can also be worn with some high
tops and you can look casual but also put together.
The Canadian tuxedo can be paired with two different color
denims and you still can look put together. You can
put a graphic t under it and look rock and roll.
You can put a bodysuit under it and you can
go out for a night.

Speaker 3 (19:26):
On the town.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
I trust the Canadian tuxedo. And it's not just me,
you guys, it is people around the NFL that you
know and love. Aaron Rodgers loves the Canadian tuxedo. The versatility,
especially when you throw a bolo and some aviators on
it is absolute fire.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
And I have learned to just.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
Be Just because I hate jeans doesn't mean I can't
trust the Canadian tuxedo and I have committed to it.

Speaker 3 (19:49):
At a tent.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
Are you Is this your moment of coming out and
saying Jamie Erdahl has great jeans?

Speaker 2 (19:55):
I mean you have taught me the art of saying
something without saying something. Kyle, I was just gonna let
it go on, said, but if that what you're asking
me for me, No, I'm not putting quote.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
Under right now, hot button top that love that you have.

Speaker 3 (20:08):
You seen the gap bad? Have you seen the gap bad?

Speaker 2 (20:11):
It looks it's fantastic and that was the ultimate comeback.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
But that's for a difference in the American Eagle.

Speaker 4 (20:15):
I know you have.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
We know that things I don't trust as well? Are
Kyle not interjecting your trust kill segment?

Speaker 4 (20:24):
What don't you trust Jamie? Immigration policies? Let's just get
into it. Come on, why not? Where are you there? No.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
Something that does make some people just as angry, though, is.

Speaker 4 (20:33):
The fact that, okay, great.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
Any time something in the art section in a store
that says washable and your kids want to buy it,
like paint, It's not washable, guys, It's not okay. I
do not trust the kids paint and it claims that
it is washable.

Speaker 3 (20:54):
That blue paint is going to be.

Speaker 2 (20:55):
On that kid's Liam's hands for the next five days.
It will be in his fingernails, it will be probably
on your clothes. It will death be in the bathtub water,
which is disgusting. Washable paint is not a thing, and I.

Speaker 3 (21:09):
Do not trust it.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
And it exists everywhere and specifically in the grooves of
your wood table that you eat at, and you're just like,
why why is there just paint everywhere?

Speaker 3 (21:18):
It's not washable, and I don't trust it. That is
my one Okay, right, Kyle, you said.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Quarterback, I'm going quarterbacks. I'm looking at all four quarterbacks
from the AFC South and I put them at a
four one point for each quarterback.

Speaker 3 (21:34):
Don't I cannot.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
The AFC South to me is quicksand okay, between Trevor Lawrence, C. J. Stroud,
Daniel Jones, and Cam Warret. I cannot for the life
of me figure it out.

Speaker 8 (21:43):
Now.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
This is an anticipation of prediction week next week, and
the AFC.

Speaker 3 (21:47):
South is my nemesis. Okay.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
Some people might think the NFC North is diabolical or
the AFC West.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
Is quite confusing.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
No, no, no, I'm looking at the AFC South because
there are parts of it, the makeup of it convinces
you that these guys are gonna have great seasons.

Speaker 3 (22:02):
Okay, C J.

Speaker 2 (22:02):
Stroud and the Texans like they are on the doorstep
of becoming the dominant team in the division.

Speaker 4 (22:07):
Trep.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Larrence has talent out the wazoo, but a brand new
head coach. You have a number one overall pick in
the division in Tennessee, and I'm very confused about what's
happening with Daniel Jones and what he was with the
Giants and what he could be with the Colts, and
the fact that Anthony Richardson is sitting right there. So
they are at a four for me in the trust
scill department, somewhere on teetering with kids, unwashable paint and
the Canadian tuxedo. All right, that is my trust scale, everybody.

(22:31):
And it's less contentious on the on the on the
untrustworthy side than Kyle was trying to imply.

Speaker 4 (22:38):
Jamie, I'll tell you what I trust.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
I trust your ability to see kids and know what
their name is. Can we see that Liam kid again?
Because that is the most Liam kid I have ever seen.
That is one hundred percent of Liam. You could have
Liam Neeson, Liam Hemsworth, Liam Gallagher. Do we have the
picture of Liam with the blue hands?

Speaker 4 (22:56):
Yeah? Do we have? That is the most Liam kid ever?

Speaker 3 (22:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
And the thing about that kid that's like a stock photo,
but that is Leo.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
Liam is that he's at your kid's birthday party.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
And you don't know him.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
No, so you're like, oh, hi, sweetie, what's your name?

Speaker 3 (23:10):
Liam?

Speaker 7 (23:10):
On Liam?

Speaker 3 (23:11):
Keep those hands away from my jeans. No, no, Liam, don't
touch my pants. No, no, limb, and then the pain
is everywhere and that's it.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
Like you just got a Liam size handprint on your
kneecap and you just didn't need it there, and it
will never come out, okay, unless it's a Canadian tuxedo,
and then it looks like it belongs.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
I like it all right, Isaiah, you are next. You're
gonna do your two scales and then you could pick
one quarterback or you could pick just all thirty two
like Jamie, go Aheadah, let's got it down.

Speaker 4 (23:36):
I'll go to please. Well, Jamie, thank you very much
for satting the stage and show me exactly how this
thing's supposed to work. So let's get into these trust
issues on this trust scale, Okay, I'm gonna go with
the Let's go with the tin first. Let's let's go
with the tin. One thing that I trust with everything
is barbecue restaurant reviews. If you ever really want to
know if a place has good food not, don't just

(23:59):
go to the star ratings. Go to the comm the comment.
People don't play a bought the barbecue. I don't care
what city or what region of the country you're in.
People are gonna let you know the ribs are dry
and chicken is dry, or this is fire right, the
season is on point. People don't play about their barbecue.
So on a ten, I trust barbecue reviews. Most places

(24:20):
are gonna have like a four point six, four point eight,
But go to the comments. That's where the real people
this is good, right, So I like that on a
tin side. Now on the zero or the one, or
whatever you want to say on the flip side. One
thing I cannot trust at all are traveling carnival or
state fair. Ride not even a little bit, not even

(24:43):
a little bit. Listen, I love a good roller coaster,
say I love a good little But what I'm not
gonna do is going there where they only service this
thing once a year just to make sure that their
quote unquote within the confines of the of the Listen, Oh, listen, listen.
That's from that is from a problem child right there,

(25:04):
and that might come off of the screws at any movement. Hey,
I've seen too many videos where people get come out
the right of the team. I've seen too many people
getting stuck on roller coasters end and up upside down.
I Am not going to be victimone junior. You ain't
going on a zipper, not even a little, Okay. So
I don't trust those that are getting serviced once a year.
So that's my skill. Okay. So now we've got the

(25:25):
barbecue on the high end. Okay, we got the non
serviceable rise on the low end. Now the quarterback that
I'm going to select, Lamar Jackson, Lamar Jackson falls. Where
does he fall on my scale? The question is is
on the barbecue side? Is he on the low side.
I'm putting him at an eight point seven seven seven
point seven seven. He actually had eight point seven seven

(25:48):
five sixty nine, but yeah, we didn't want to get that.
To delude it, I'll put him at a eighty seven
seven because I love Lamar Jackson. I love the fact
that you know that he embodies a lot of the
things that I that I had in terms of intangible speed,
strong arm. He's smart, his teammates love him. He can dynamic.
But the only reason why he's not at nine or
ten is because we haven't seen him have the playoff

(26:09):
success that we want him to have. We haven't seen
him get over that edge. We need to see him
get past the Patrick Mahomes. We need to see him
get past the job. You know, the Allens, you know
Josh Allens. We need to see him gives to the
super Bowl, and we need to see him put some
jewelry on. If he puts some jewelry on, he will
be in the barbecue reviews section right now. He's just
close to it. Isaiah.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
If you see like a one star barbecue review, are
you like the hold on, come on, let's give it
a chance, or do you think that's also trash?

Speaker 4 (26:37):
You know what, I'm gonna go look and see how
many comments. That's what I have to do. You can't
just look at the one Kyle. It might be a
brand new restaurant that maybe the competition trying to exactly.
I need to see at least one thousand reviews. If
I see one thousand reviews, then I'm gonna trust the rating.
But I guess I'm not just going off the star, Kyle.
You have to go into comments.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Yes, all right, See this is so good and such
a great job as your first maiden voyage out of
the way out. I just want to say that some
of the synergy we have here I submitted from my
trust scale, the thing that I trust the most. I'm
not making this up. I submitted carnival rides and I'm
not kidding. And they said, no, Isaiah's already doing that.

Speaker 4 (27:12):
For the least. I'll ride that. I don't care. I'll
get right on and strapping and a round and we go.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
I don't care, right but mantay and I will go later.
We'll talk in commercial break. It's more Good Morning Football.
After this, we're talking Trey Hendrickson and Terry McLaurin.

Speaker 4 (27:25):
I want you're talking that, gentleman. Is that an Eagles fan?
I don't know something wrong. Trust Trust Trust what a.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
Powerful thing between human beings. And we have that between
ourselves and yourself. But do we have it with NFL players?
And teams right now, very difficult. It's August twenty sixth,
the season opener is in nine days. But we are
establishing our own personal trust scales here on Good Morning
Football of things that we trust and don't trust in
our personal lives, and then we're putting players or teams
on that scale. Now, if you miss part one of

(28:00):
the trust scales, you miss Jamie Rdaal saying the thing
she doesn't trust it all is children's products that say
that they're washable, like paints and arts and crafts and stuff,
and they never really are. The thing that Jamie trusts
completely is the Canadian tuxedo. Denim on top, denim on
the bottom. It works, it's versatile, looks good. Anybody can
pull it off. Then meanwhile, we had Isaiah standback who

(28:21):
said the thing he doesn't trust at all is carnival
rides and carnivals in general.

Speaker 4 (28:25):
I get it.

Speaker 1 (28:26):
And then Isaiah implicitly trusts online barbecue reviews people who
went and had the brisket and they say five stars,
lock it up. We're seeing nods, we're seeing smiles, because
that was their whole segment.

Speaker 4 (28:38):
It was beautiful.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
Now, man Ti Tale, I have known you for a
relatively short.

Speaker 4 (28:43):
Amount of time.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
But I trust you, and I want you to tell
what you don't trust in life, what you do trust
in life? All kinds of places you could go on
this Manike, Wait, let's find out all.

Speaker 8 (28:53):
Types of places and talk about traffic. My trust scale
relates to each other. Okay. The thing that I do
not trust zero are traffic lights. I do not trust
traffic lights at all. Matter of fact, we're going to
do an experiment here at the table. I want you
to tell me what you think of green light.

Speaker 4 (29:13):
I don't want to. I don't I don't want to
know what the green light is supposed to me.

Speaker 8 (29:17):
I want to know, Jamie Erdal, what does a green
light mean to you?

Speaker 2 (29:21):
Drive through the drive across the street.

Speaker 8 (29:23):
Okay, Isaiah, go go KB, go go fast?

Speaker 4 (29:28):
Yellow yellow? What does it mean, Jamie?

Speaker 3 (29:31):
Get through the light?

Speaker 4 (29:32):
Get to exactly what does it mean? It depends on
when the yellow apro when it happened.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
KB, Hey, it means g you cautious driver and hit
the brakes and wait for the light to change.

Speaker 4 (29:42):
Like for a red light, stop stop? What is your base? Stop? Hot? KB?

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Hopefully right on red, but probably stop and look at
my phone exactly, guys.

Speaker 8 (29:53):
So what I've learned throughout my years when it comes
to this traffic light.

Speaker 4 (29:56):
First of all, red light is smile, you're on camera.
You're about to get a ticket. Okay.

Speaker 1 (30:01):
Yellow light is you still got time before?

Speaker 4 (30:04):
It's a red light.

Speaker 8 (30:05):
And the green light for me is proceed with caution.
When I ever, I come up to an intersection and
that thing goes green, I wait for a good split
second and I look left and I look right as
if I'm crossing the street without a crosswalk, and I
make sure as I'm going in the middle of that
intersection that there's still no traffic that's coming. I don't
trust a stop light, but the thing that I do

(30:25):
trust is related to a stop light. Matter of fact,
it's on a stop light. When that pedestrian signal turns to.

Speaker 4 (30:31):
Walk, i't oh yeah, may yeah. My foot is already
in the middle of the street.

Speaker 8 (30:38):
It's probably on that ass it's probably on the asphalt already.
Matter of fact, when I start to walk across the
street and I'm in the crosswalk and I have the walk,
I will look at traffic as I'm walking across like this,
like I know you see me, you better stop. I
trust guys that walk signal so much that I am
mister indestructible as I'm crossing the street because the light told.

Speaker 4 (31:01):
Me it is time for me to walk.

Speaker 8 (31:02):
And if you are in a car, you better because
it's my time, just like it's my time on this
trust scale, and it's also my quarterbacks time.

Speaker 4 (31:10):
Okay.

Speaker 8 (31:10):
The quarterback that I have on this trust scale is
Jaden Daniels number two.

Speaker 4 (31:16):
This is his second year.

Speaker 8 (31:17):
And yeah, this talks about this term that we don't
use on this show. It's his second year. Blah blah,
black guys. The guy is phenomenal. It's year two with
a Cliff Kingsbury. It's year two now that he has
his comfort blanket back with Terry mcclaurin. He now has
Deebo Samuel. He now has a clear backfield. He now
has a defensive coach that's going to take them far

(31:39):
into the into the season.

Speaker 4 (31:41):
I got him at an eight point five.

Speaker 8 (31:43):
That's where I have Jaden Daniels as an eight point
five eight because I think that's the floor to their
to their season as to the wins is the floor
is eight and five. Because it's my quarterbacks number.

Speaker 4 (31:54):
Man, it's five.

Speaker 8 (31:55):
So I got Jayden Daniels on that scale from the
stoplight to the pedestrian signal. I have my quarterback sitting
at an eight point five.

Speaker 4 (32:04):
Hmm. You're crushing this man, TI. How satisfying is it too?

Speaker 1 (32:08):
When it's when the animation is actually that red hand
and then it switches to that white walker guy and
you're like, yeah, I'm going for a walk and it
feels good.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
And how about when the truck that.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
Thing where you like look tough in the street and
make them run into you.

Speaker 4 (32:22):
That works for you. I think he'll stop for you.
You're a big on the man.

Speaker 3 (32:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
Or when the countdown starts and you're like, oh, I
only have twenty seconds to cross.

Speaker 3 (32:30):
Oh I'm going to make.

Speaker 4 (32:30):
That I want to take. Yeah, you just still run
across that. You look at the traffic. You still got
to wait for me totally? Are you making icons? Don't walk?

Speaker 1 (32:41):
And then it and then it holds on the don't walk?
That's again, bag, I'm going Yeah, you and the tesla
I see you. Yes, you will stop.

Speaker 4 (32:51):
You're going to stop? Yep.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
H get paid all right, Kyle, bring us home?

Speaker 4 (32:55):
Well, the Tesla driver will definitely stop. I don't know
about the guy in the F one fifty though. It's
a different deal going on, you know what I mean?
The Tesla driver will stop all right.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Things I trust and don't trust. This one's going to
be pretty relatable guys for all of us. I do
not trust some little devilish creation called voice to text.

Speaker 4 (33:17):
I don't trust it.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
It lets me down all the time I try to
use the voice to text. I try to be a
good citizen, especially when I'm driving.

Speaker 4 (33:24):
It never works.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
I'm coming home, I text my wife I will be
home shortly. A second later, she texts me, did you
just call me shorty?

Speaker 4 (33:35):
Lol?

Speaker 1 (33:35):
I'm like, no, I didn't call you shorty. She goes, yes,
you did. She screencapt this. It's funny.

Speaker 4 (33:41):
And then I'm like, I'm stressed. Sometime when I'm traveling,
I go.

Speaker 9 (33:45):
That flight's not going to work this morning, coma so
much for all that trouble period, I'm fired up. The
text comes through, bad fight going into work this morning,
so much trouble. I'm fired Brook's like, what what happened here?

Speaker 1 (34:01):
I didn't text that. I said a flight, not fight,
you idiot?

Speaker 7 (34:05):
And you know what ens up?

Speaker 4 (34:05):
Happening. It lets me down so often that I end up.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
Going and correcting the thing and trying to slide back
and change the grammar. It's a good it's a well
intended thing, and I want to use it, but I
can't keep messing it up and fix all your mistakes.
If we're twenty twenty five and the computers are smarter
than us, how come you can't discern between the word
duck and whatever the hell else I said? Figure it
out to stay up with me. I need to make
this thing work so I can be a safe driver.

(34:29):
I don't trust that thing at all. Voice to text, no,
voice to the toilet. I don't like it.

Speaker 5 (34:34):
Now.

Speaker 1 (34:35):
I'm looking for a night in shining armor of something
in modern technology that I can just hand my life
over to. Even as a person that works in media
and live television, you know what, I have developed a
one hundred percent trust relationship with I trust Wikipedia all
day long, every day.

Speaker 4 (34:51):
That is my scripture. Look at that beautiful globe with the.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
Puzzle pieces in the omega. I use it. I use
it at work. I probably shouldn't. I could be in
the middle of a highlight and it's some rookie that
I've never heard of before.

Speaker 4 (35:03):
He was undraft to the Panthers, and.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
I'll be like, yeah, he started out at Georgia, then
entered the Portal, and he went to Mit. He threw
for eight thousand yards at senior year and helps out
in his family's flamingo farm in Massachusetts. I would just
read it on Wikipedia and completely believe it was true.
It used to be like Wikipedia was like the idiot's source.
Now I feel like it's just tablon. I can go
to my own Wikipedia, and if it said that Kyle

(35:28):
Grant went to space with Katy Perry, I'd be like,
it must have happened. It's on Wikipedia. I don't remember it.
But I trust Wikipedia all day, every day, and I
know I'm not the only one at the table who does.

Speaker 4 (35:39):
I don't trust it at all. I do you do? Oh?

Speaker 3 (35:42):
I do for sure.

Speaker 2 (35:43):
In the fact, if I read something that's so out
of this world, I will go down and be like
when was.

Speaker 3 (35:48):
This thing last edited? Because unless this is a joke,
I'm taking it to the grave.

Speaker 8 (35:52):
Like Kyle, I, well, you had that little summary that
pops up, so I don't even have to get down
to the Wikipedia page. Like if I'm research that there's
gonna be something that's going to draw from an article
that I don't even got to get to the Wikipedia.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
PA, How did you have an implication that one of
us fell fell a victim to the Wikipedia?

Speaker 4 (36:09):
Is that?

Speaker 3 (36:09):
What that is?

Speaker 1 (36:10):
That?

Speaker 3 (36:10):
What that was?

Speaker 4 (36:11):
No?

Speaker 1 (36:11):
I just honestly think, like I feel like we're honestly
having to search things and search people.

Speaker 4 (36:16):
That was an earnest thing. I think some of you
guys remember it.

Speaker 1 (36:18):
There was a time Wikipedia used to be like the
bathroom wall and you would scrawl things on there and
meet up here and called. Now it's I feel like
it's like what World book Ingencyclopedia used to be. I
just completely trust them, but I don't trust voice to text.
So on a scale of voice to text to Wikipedia,
where does my player land?

Speaker 4 (36:36):
I have JJ McCarthy.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
Guys, Oh, and for the sake of being a positive
morning show and hope springs eternal as we turn into September,
put JJ McCarthy on the scale between voice texts and Wikipedia.

Speaker 4 (36:49):
Go ahead, I have JJ.

Speaker 1 (36:52):
I got him right there at a five, and I
think that's generous. I really do you're gonna say, oh, oh,
you're not he's never played. I saw him in a
preseason action over a year ago, and then I saw
him at Michigan. I have not seen him in a
real tackle football game. You think about this, we know
way more about Michael Pennock Junior than we know about
JJ McCarthy. JJ to me is the most pivotal, most interesting,

(37:14):
mysterious player in the entire league because he drives the
Jefferson Ferrari, he drives the O'Connell Ferrari, and he drives
the Vikings won a ton of games last year Ferrari.
But we don't know if he knows how to drive.
In fact, this he looks like a guy who still
has his learned as permit. So I'm going to be
generous and give them a five. This easily could have
been a three before the season starts.

Speaker 8 (37:34):
I'm surprised it's that low with Kevin O'Connell as a
head coach and I know.

Speaker 4 (37:38):
He's never played. Didn't you listen to what I just
said you? J. J. McCarty should be a two.

Speaker 2 (37:46):
So triggered man is putting Kevin O'Connell trus skill at ten.

Speaker 1 (37:50):
If that's so, it kind of averages out a little
bit to be a little bit like.

Speaker 4 (37:54):
No, no, it does average out. Because Kevin o'conno was
at a ten and McCarthy was at a zero.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
He brought him to a five. I'll want you can
see what you did there, Kyle brought like. I love O'Connell.
O'Connell's not a ten either. O'Connell's an eight, eight like
he's Bill Belichick in his prime as a ten.

Speaker 4 (38:11):
Guys, Phil Jackson is a ten.

Speaker 1 (38:13):
Kevin O'Connell's a nice coach, not like he has a
bunch of Super Bowl rings.

Speaker 4 (38:16):
There you go. You're saying Bill is a ten. Yeah, sure, yeah,
he was.

Speaker 3 (38:23):
Like a nine ish on the coach.

Speaker 4 (38:26):
So this so this is what I'm saying.

Speaker 8 (38:27):
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, this is what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (38:30):
I I love Boyd Belichick. Okay, I love Bill Belichick.
I respect Bill Belichick. But when Tom Brady left, what happened?
What happened?

Speaker 3 (38:38):
Oh no, this is not the second for what happened.

Speaker 4 (38:44):
So we talk about it. Also, that's all I'm saying.
I'm saying, to be a ten, I'm saying he's like
a nine.

Speaker 8 (38:49):
I'm saying to say it like a ten, Like, there
has to be a reference on this scale of a
coach who's a ten.

Speaker 4 (38:54):
That's what I'm saying, who's a ten? Who's a ten?

Speaker 3 (38:58):
That ever has that that great great player?

Speaker 4 (39:00):
You know, that's not what I'm saying.

Speaker 8 (39:01):
But what I'm saying is if we if if we're
saying who's a ten, there has to be a reference.

Speaker 4 (39:06):
So Bill Belichick is a ten? So is Andy Reid
a ten? Yeah, that's right there, he's right under Sean
McVay at ten. No, No, it's Nick Saban a ten.
Like That's what I'm trying to get. It's like, what's
like Nick Saban to me is like a ten?

Speaker 8 (39:19):
Like Nick Saban can do with any quarterback like he
did with any quarterback. So that's what I'm like, That's
that's what That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (39:24):
With the references. There's no shot to Bill Belichick. I'm saying,
what the reference is? We have to have a reference of.

Speaker 1 (39:30):
This is where these segments go, guys, this is the
scale segments we I didn't know Manta is going to
be screaming about Nick Saban at this segment, but.

Speaker 4 (39:36):
I like it, And don't roll up the road. You

On Purpose with Jay Shetty

On Purpose with Jay Shetty

I’m Jay Shetty host of On Purpose the worlds #1 Mental Health podcast and I’m so grateful you found us. I started this podcast 5 years ago to invite you into conversations and workshops that are designed to help make you happier, healthier and more healed. I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
