Welcome to Good Morning Football, presented by Verizon.

That's right. Jamie, Mante, Isaiah, but frankly, that's the boring part of the program.

Kyle's in San Francisco already. It's true.

Kyle's already at the Pro Bowl games presented by Verizon.

It's true.

Kyle, how do you feel about all the room that you have to get up?

I'm actually surprised last hour that you didn't have more fun and that activity play field that you have behind you.

I have a dog, okay?

I have a dog.

And if I would ever bring that dog to the dog park where there's this wide open fields to run in and icy

cool water to lap up and just stay on the outside of the fence and be like see the dog park dog

you're not allowed to go in there let's go home that's what's going on here i could go run back there

i could set the place on fire i can't though i have six different tethers and wires through which I am grounded to this director's chair. So that's all great. But by the end of the show, I'm going to break them and tear them if necessary, because this dog will run. I will get out on that dog park no matter what I have to do, even if I have to bite somebody, which I'm capable of. There was this this thing a few years ago. K. I'm not sure if you saw it, but people would put a treat in

front of their dog and say stay. Do not eat the treat and the dog was just like the good dogs

that stay there. You're that dog right when the owner leads. Yeah. Yeah. That's mine. I'm meeting the

treat. Yes. They can put's my. I mean the treat.

Yes. They can put any leash. I got one of those cones around my hand. I got the taser thing in my neck. I don't care. I'll run through it all. Watch. I'm not going to sit here on that field. Imagine sending me, like me, to San Francisco and be like in front of the whole football field, but just sit in the director's chair and be plugged in.

Like, what is the wind there?

So I will defy that and I will break through it. Just watch. Oh my God, defying gravity. Well done. All right. Thank you, KB. We'll get back to you in a second. Let's check in with Jane Slater and Omar Ruiz, who are stationed ever so politely in their respective spots in the Bay Area. They're a little farther south than Kyle because they're adjacent to the team hotels and where the teams are having media availability. Jane, I start with you on the New England Patriots. Get us back on track. Well, it is day two in Santa Clara, and it's a day off for the players, Jamie, but it's not a day off for the head coach. In fact, true man of the people. He is up early doing Bustin with the boys with our guys, Taylor, Luan, and Wilcompton on the other side of this. So he is up talking to these guys about the game. You know, he has 21 years removed from his last Super Bowl. And so you don't need a lot of motivation if you're one of his players about what it takes to actually get that Lombardy trophy. But I did talk to one of his staffers about that turnaround from 4 and 13 last year to the Super Bowl. I was told the answer was belief. He gave a lot of guys second chances and a roster reshaped by key veteran editions, including Stefan Diggs and Matt Collins.
