Good morning, everyone. Welcome to the Early Edge. My name is Cianajad, and this show is brought to you by BetMGM, Make It Legendary. Some legendary performances yesterday. I got to tell you, sneak peek behind the curtain before we get to the recap screen. Mike McClure might have been making fun of me a little bit for my QB rankings. We'll talk about maybe Trevor and Caleb in a little bit, but let's see how we did on the recap screen before we bring in the stars of the show. We've got an action-pack show. We're going to really lean into Monday night football. Five and eight on the recap screen. My half unit play at plus 150 doesn't come in.

1:30.0

Jacoby Brissette doesn't come in for me either. So I need to pick it up a little bit. Chip goes one for two. Mikey B goes one for two. Prop stars hits his play as he usually does. Brasco one for two. Mike hits his play in the sports line picks don't come through for us. So we're going to do better. We're going to do better because we've got such a great cast on a Monday.

but what if I told you there was a quarterback? Busting out after another trip to the gym early before the show. But I don't want to put you in a bad mood or anything,

2:02.8

but what if I told you there was a quarterback who has 14 touchdowns accounted for in the last four games

2:08.6

without committing a single turnover?

2:10.9

And he has his team in the race for the number one seat in the AFC.

2:15.0

Any idea who that might be?

2:16.8

It's got to be Jaden Daniels.

2:19.1

Jane Daniels. It's your boy, Trevor Lawrence. They go into Denver. To me, that was the story of the
