GMFB’s Jamie Erdahl on the Top NFL Storylines Heading into Training Camps | The Rich Eisen Show

what do you want to unleash on us today Jamie what's what what's been eating that way at you for three four months here well in my uh sleepless nights with a newborn if you will uh there's been a lot of you know as you say reading and reacting probably in a healthy manner because I get to you know tell my three-month-old things that I probably wouldn't say on TV you know about uh you know trades that were made or contracts that were signed or quarterbacks that moved on um so I let's just say I I am actually really deep into we we we take prediction week very seriously on gmsb you know and I think I'm going to I'm really think I'm going to make some splashes this year with my prediction week I just you know you guys were talking about the NFC east and then you know the Kirk cousin thing still just irks me how that happened and and the Falcons and then their draft I'm kind of on a like a I'm I'm losing my words I'm so it's so complex in my brain right now but it has just been Sleepless thinking about this but prediction week with the division winners I think I'm really going to move some teams around when's prediction week it is the like Monday Tuesday Wednesday of the we of the Season which is 49 days as we've been talking about to kickoff of the regular season give us a taste though kind of like pilot one of the hottest division winners you're thinking about the hot or the hottest take you got in general come on let me tell you something my first season on gmfb I made a grave error as the Kansas City Chiefs fans would tell you and I did not make them division winners I didn't even have them going same you have the Raiders that year you buy in on the Raiders RP the that what Rich did that's what Rich did and he's still hearing about it still hearing about it yeah now I'm not saying I'm going to go with the Raiders but all of a sudden there's this coach who's living in the same town as me and my husband went to Michigan and like what is this team going to do in Los Angeles do you're going to do it again Jamie I you just moved out here I'm just thinking about I'm just trying it on precise you said I 39 days there's also definitely some some personal part of this if she's walking around in whatever Beach toown she happens to be in and running into Chargers fans and they're like you're picking the Chiefs like you got you got to protect protect number one here hold on hold on they're Chargers fans that's what well and and and if they are I think they're actually nicer than they're they're going to have quite the season ahead they're the biggest story in sports Jim Harbaugh the be one of the biggest stories in all SP the Chargers right now you're saying in the season they will be one of the biggest stories in sports it will be Jim Harbaugh everywhere Jim Harbaugh has been he has gotten the quick turn on the first year with San Francisco they went 133 went to the NC championship game if they don't if the Chargers don't go to the playoffs that will be one of the biggest disappointments we've had every other head coach give them time it's going to take a while to get into it Jim Harbaugh comes in the expectation is not hey let's go from 5 and 12 to 9 and 8 we're building something no it's you're going to be a Super Bowl winner you're going to push the Chiefs right now I see your argument because you're saying either way it goes it's going to be the biggest story because if it's a huge success that means they're beating the Chiefs and they're beating teams that they didn't last year if they don't then it's a grave failure on this coach that they hired that he was supposed to come in and do this years old maybe doesn't have the touch anymore maybe she go back to college should never left Michigan all that stuff yes it's AE story statement it just I think it stressed us all out for just a beat to say because I'm still thinking of we're living in an Aaron Rogers Jets world and to to say that at times the Chargers who fight I think for the spotlight a lot of the year and frankly throughout the news cycle that you're going to say that they are going to Trump what's happening with the Jets is that's that's a big one but one of the best coaches one of the best uh one of the best quarterbacks in the game they've got a couple of the best receivers in the game they're not as big of a story as the Chargers there's no way there's no way we've talked substantially more about the about the Chargers we do this with the Chargers in the offseason that's the thing is I think every summer you could say the Chargers are the bigger story because they've had so much talent but then in season I think it's where they fall off the cliff so I just kind of you know to say they're going to be the biggest story in sports Tom this is why you're sitting in that chair what what else what else is is burning up here I mean you know me I'm classic Rogers Jets little PTSD from that because I think as a show last August there was I mean for everybody you're still wearing your jet gear still wearing my jet gear there was so much emotional buildup to that and then the The Fallout from that uh but I'm curious about what's happening in Minnesota you know and just the emotional breakup uh at the quarterback position again to bring It full circle with the Michigan quarterback situation and what that transition is going to be like I'm in the middle of watching receiver and you just like fall in love with Justin Jefferson all over again um and I think for KOC and and their ownership and management like this is a these are officially it's like a college basketball coach that comes in and it's like his first real Rec recruiting class that comes up like I think for Kevin okell like this is Big Time these are your decisions and you put stamps on these things and plus it's the NFC North is no longer or has it ever really been the teams just shifted a walk in the park so like the lions are just so fun um but I'm I my heart sometimes you know pulls towards the North Star we we were talking earlier we took some calls on it you know because the Texans being the first full squad on the field earlier today who could be this year's Texans the team that nobody thought and there's not that many because we already have convinced ourselves well the Bears are a playoff team now you know all these and then one of the teams I think you could put on this category would be if the Vikings are a playoff team if they're good of of the teams how from a hype train perspective obviously the Lions I mean that's through the roof it was actually bigger last year cuz now it's just like no now they're one of the best the Packers were one of the hottest teams in the League last year second half of the Season into the playoffs right down to the final interception in San Francisco you have the Bears with all their additions and Caleb Williams there all kinds of excitement no one's talked about the Vikings yeah they've got a really good skill group they got to figure out the quarterback position but if they were to become an NFC Contender this year MH that to me would be an out of left field people didn't see it coming type of moment it would be out of left field I agree with you but the parallel to the Texans last year who just from a star perspective they didn't have it we didn't see what CJ stra was going to come up with we didn't see what will Anderson was going to do defensively demo Ryan is such a wonderfully warm and intelligent and bright driven coach that really gets these guys to a place where they need to operate to put the Vikings in that I think the Vikings just have categorically more star power just because Justin Jefferson is there so I I agree it would be out of left field um gosh that is a great question because you know we just now I'm really thinking about who it could be there I mean like the Vikings argument what about the Broncos I mean the Broncos that would that would certainly be that would be surprising that would be that would be a surprise would be would be pretty shock Sean pton finally got his quarterback to your point about putting the stamp on things he's got Bo Knicks who every Scout and Coach I talked to before the draft was like this is the perfect fit 52 career starts coach's kid he's going to listen to Shawn do exactly what he wants I like that one I like that possibility they're they're in a transition now tough division personel perspective and they're in the rockiest division that there is in football
