| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to episode 919 of the official Establish the Run.com podcast. |
| 0:22.9 | My name is Adam Levittan. |
| 0:23.9 | I am one of the co-founders here at ETR. |
| 0:26.0 | As always, joined by fellow co-founder Evan Silva. |
| 0:28.8 | Week 5 is behind us. |
| 0:31.2 | A very strong slate of primetime games awaits us in week six. |
| 0:36.8 | Evan, how's it going today? It's going all right. |
| 0:40.4 | It was a wild, wild week five. I mean, there were a ton of big upsets. They were games that |
| 0:48.6 | looked like they weren't going to have much scoring that wound up in massive shootouts. |
| 0:52.0 | Here's a stat from Rich Rebar through the first five weeks |

| 1:39.3 | But yeah, I was aware of it, unfortunately. |
| 1:42.4 | Okay. |
| 1:44.1 | On today's show, we are going to go team by team through all 32 NFL franchises |
