| 0:00.0 | All right, let's get to it. Football today. David, some music please. |
| 0:06.1 | So let's get into a few things here. A lot of teams finally played their second preseason game. |
| 0:11.9 | And we saw a little bit more here. Let's start with Caleb Williams. He was six for 10 total. |
| 0:17.9 | 10, 107, one touchdown, a 130 passer rating, but the most impressive thing was his first drive. |
| 0:24.5 | I think Lions fans should be a little scared. |
| 0:26.6 | That offense looked really good with Caleb Williams in that first drive. |
| 0:30.9 | Your thoughts on Caleb Williams and the Bears' offense. |

| 1:20.9 | I filmed from a tree. |
| 1:22.3 | Not interested. |
| 1:23.4 | This one I want to get your thoughts on is about the confidence level that you saw from week one in preseason to week two, which is with Jackson Dart. |
| 1:31.2 | Sure, he looked good in week one in preseason. He looked a little better in week two, but was it the confidence that you saw on him? |
