Sports media and TV personality Kyle Brandt was just trying to do his usual segment on NFL Network’s Good Morning Football but his colleague Jaime Erdahl could not contain her amusement.
Brandt was on the show debating whether or not Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow needs to step up his play if the Bengals want to take that next step toward winning a Super Bowl. While doing so, a graphic came up on screen listing Brandt’s quarterback tiers for the AFC.
However, the list of players and the order Brandt had them in isn’t what caught the attention of Erdahl and viewers. It was the fact that Brandt’s body took up a majority of the illustration and the quarterback tiers were barely visible.
Brandt took notice of this on air and started cracking some jokes, which led to Erdahl bursting out in laughter on national television:
We were gonna talk about Joe Burrow…

“Most of what we’ve seen here is my body on screen, but try to look really closely,” Brandt said kiddingly.
Kudos to Brandt. He did about as well as he could despite some mid-segment turbulence caused by the distraction that was his enormous body.
Erdahl was enjoying every moment of this. She was able to catch her breath for a second before murmuring out “That is an eye test right there. Can you read the six lines?” Once she was able to get the words out, she went right back to laughing hysterically.
While it may not have made for the best football analysis, it made for some entertaining content.
