| 0:07.0 | Welcome to NFL Daily's top 25 players of the last 25 years. |
| 0:14.0 | Yes, this is the first episode. |
| 0:15.6 | It's going to be a six-part series that I'm really excited about, |
| 0:19.8 | and there is no one I would rather start the |
| 0:22.2 | series with than my friend, Mina Kimes, of ESPN. This is a big responsibility, Mina, taking the |
| 0:30.3 | first episode. Hello, I'm excited to do this. The players that are in this bunch are great. This is a great group. I mean, |

| 1:22.1 | two great years. That's almost a prerequisite. But it wasn't about longevity to me. It was like, who was the very best? And maybe |
| 1:30.7 | longevity is a little bit of a tiebreaker. Do you think that's like a fair way to do it? |
