| 0:00.0 | Ladies and gentlemen, welcome once again to the Packernet podcast. |
| 0:13.6 | Why is there a pig working across here? |
| 0:17.2 | Welcome. Welcome. |
| 0:19.3 | It's almost game time. So we got to do a very quick turnaround for |
| 0:24.4 | the Detroit Lions so we're going to do kind of a what the heck are the Detroit Lions I guess is |
| 0:30.2 | kind of the question here I think it's a fair question because I don't honestly know the answer |

| 1:41.8 | They lost week 2 by 4 points, |
