| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to Beyond the Box Corps, about to you by very tired men. |
| 0:13.6 | Me and Ryan Heath here running on way too much coffee this week. |
| 0:18.7 | But we've got some exciting stuff to talk to you about today. |
| 0:22.4 | Ryan, how you doing, buddy? |
| 0:24.1 | Hey, I'm doing great. |
| 0:25.2 | Yeah, like you said, the black coffee mug count is rising rapidly this week. |
| 0:31.4 | But, you know, it's always an adjustment at the start of the season. |

| 1:36.5 | going to play the slot. Here was the breakdown of the Bears slot reps in week one. So as you kind of might expect, yeah, the slot role was very |
| 1:47.3 | valuable. It was almost half of their bad receiver and tight end targets. It was like two |
| 1:51.6 | thirds of their yards. But it was split between basically everybody on the team. Alameda Zakias, |
| 1:57.6 | DJ Moore, Roma Dunzei, almost evenly Lo. Loveland, Kemet getting in there occasionally. |
