| 0:00.0 | I'll now hand you over to my best man, Eddie. |
| 0:04.0 | Wow, wow, wow, second time's a charm, eh, Billy Boy? |
| 0:09.0 | Oh God. |
| 0:10.0 | Substitution, courtesy of Paddy Power, embarrassing Eddie, makes way for sensible Samuel. |
| 0:15.0 | Cool, that was close. |
| 0:16.0 | You might not always pick the right starter, but your sub can still deliver. |

| 0:41.3 | Of course, I'm your boy, the coach. |
| 0:42.9 | Oh, we are powered as always by the almighty sports line. |
| 0:45.8 | The best value in all sports betting is not close. |
| 0:48.5 | A little housekeeping breaking news that happened just a couple of hours ago. |
| 0:52.2 | First, the LA Chargers. |
| 0:53.8 | What a shock. |
| 0:54.6 | I told you guys yesterday that Mike Williams would not play. What a shock. My insight sources were |
| 1:00.2 | right. He was ruled out today a fractured back. And Brandon Staley is saying, oh, all of our players |
| 1:05.9 | are important, really. Not everybody's Mike Williams. Also, second big news today. Skyler Thompson for the second week in a row. We'll start a quarterback for the Miami Dolphins.

When you get those early notices after the game, no, it's nothing serious. He should be fine. Just some spasms. He'll play through it. You really got to wait. And when we see today, he's not even traveling with the team. They went five and one with the only loss being 30 to 27 to the Chiefs when they had both Keene and Allen and Mike Williams in the lineup, that is a huge loss. |
| 2:02.4 | And Brandon Staley is really going to be in trouble if they lose this game because he not only Michael Williams, |
| 2:07.0 | that Joey Bosa is going to play, but he's a little banged up. |
| 2:10.0 | No reason to play them last week. |
