| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to episode 841 of the official Establish the Run.com podcast. |
| 0:22.0 | My name is Adam Levittan, as always joined by Evan Silva. |
| 0:25.3 | And I know everyone already wants to turn the page to next season, to the 2025 NFL season. |
| 0:31.4 | We're not ready for that just yet. |
| 0:33.5 | We're still thinking through what happened in 2024 and when we can learn going forward |
| 0:37.7 | Evan has going today it's going great we haven't done a show since our Super Bowl |
| 0:44.0 | preview so it's been a little bit over two weeks I believe and I've been in the process of |

| 1:25.3 | or to needle. It's to try to think through why a player hit or missed |
| 1:30.6 | and see if there's something useful we can take forward from that, |
| 1:33.3 | just in an effort to get better. |
| 1:34.8 | So today we're going to do part one, |
| 1:37.5 | early round hits and misses, |
| 1:38.9 | we'll back soon with part two, |
| 1:40.7 | later round hits and misses. |
| 1:42.7 | By the way, NBA season is out of the All-Star break now. |
