| 0:52.3 | After a week off last week, I was flying back from Frankfurt, Germany. |
| 0:55.6 | After helping out with Chief's Dolphins coverage, thank you to Robert for stepping in. |
| 1:00.2 | But I'm back for week 10, and I'm glad I am because so, so many games yesterday came down to the wire. |
| 1:06.4 | This is a crazy stat, but never in the NFL's 103-year history have five games been decided by a game-winning |
