1 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 1: At a Steve Tasker who has been all over the fields, 2 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role 3 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: player for you, Stave, Steve a blimp. We're not even 4 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:24,919 Speaker 1: in the strated here of normalcy here, never normal on 5 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: a Friday, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you. Welcome to 6 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: One Bill's live broadcasting from the Seneca Studios in beautiful 7 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 1: sun splashed Orchard Park. As we have a summer like 8 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,239 Speaker 1: day here in late October, and the team practicing on 9 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: the grass practice field today about fifty yards away from us. 10 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,239 Speaker 1: And it looks like the Bills will not have some 11 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,920 Speaker 1: of their injured players this weekend. Coach not naming names 12 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,199 Speaker 1: just yet, but we'll find out later this afternoon when 13 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: the injury report comes out as to who they will 14 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: be without. And Steve and I were talking about this 15 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: before we came on. And we'll get to that Eagles 16 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: Giants game in a second, Steve, but oh, we know 17 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: where we're going there. But we heard coach McDermott this 18 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: morning address the media as he normally does on Friday. 19 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: He was hopeful that Matt Milana would get a little 20 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 1: bit more work in practice today. So it seems as 21 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: though there's a chance that he plays on Sunday, but 22 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: he did confirm that in practice yesterday Josh Norman tweaked 23 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: his hamstring, the same one that had him on IR 24 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: earlier this season, and that certainly does not bode well 25 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: for Sunday. And we were just taking in some practice 26 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: since you know, we weren't there, but or since it 27 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,639 Speaker 1: was right over here, and I mean beautiful day today. 28 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, it's going to be interesting to 29 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: see who is up and who is not up. And 30 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: I know you were mentioned in this to me an 31 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: opponent like the Jets, a team you should beat, in 32 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: a team you have oodles of more talent than there, 33 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: you're probably apt to sit some of your important guys 34 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: that are dinged up and save them for that game 35 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: next week. I mean, I know you don't want to 36 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: look ahead, you want to focus on this one, but man, 37 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: if John Brown's a little gimpy, if Josh Norman's a 38 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: little gimpy, why don't you have him sit this one 39 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: out and say we got this guys, we should still 40 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: be able to beat this team. Be great to have you, 41 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: but make no mistake, they got to win this game. Yes, 42 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: I mean this is a This is a worst game 43 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: if you lose, than it is a great game if 44 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: you win, even if you win by thirty five points. 45 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: You just need to win this game by a point, 46 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: and if you win, it advanced because you got the 47 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 1: Patriots next week and you do kind of need everybody 48 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: for the Patriots. Yeah. So if you're looking at the 49 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: film as a coaching staff, you're going, there's I mean, 50 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: we got I mean, Gabriel Davis could could take Steph 51 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: Digg's place in this game, you know, or whatever. I mean. 52 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: We got Steph Diggs, we got Cole Beasley. We still 53 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 1: we out man him right there. You throw Gabe Davis, 54 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: Zach Moss, and Devin Singletary into that. Tyler Croft, we 55 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 1: got him. Yeah, John Brown get healthy. The other side 56 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: of the ball is a little different. The other side 57 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: of the ball. Then you gotta say, Okay, how good? 58 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: How good? Can Cam Lewis play with one arm? Yeah, 59 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: he's got a club on him. Risk, You can play 60 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 1: football with without one hand, but you're gonna be covering 61 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: kicks doing it. You can play special team right with 62 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: a club on your arm, You can't play corner with 63 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: the arms. Gonna be a little bit different unless you're 64 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,119 Speaker 1: playing completely unless you put him in there, and every 65 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: time he's in there, you're going zone. But even then 66 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: he's gonna be wrapping up with his legs in one arm, 67 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: you know. Uh, he could play zone with one arm, 68 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: but yeah, without Tredavious White, if he's not available, if 69 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: his back's bothering him, and of course, if you know, 70 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: Josh Norman cam Lewis is hurt, Levi Wallace is still 71 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: not healthy, you know, hold on a minute, that may be, 72 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,119 Speaker 1: that may be, that may be a bridge too far 73 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: right and and let's not forget you know. Cody Ford 74 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: left last week's game with a knee injury, and h 75 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: McDermott actually addressed that as well. He said today that 76 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: if they need to replace him in the lineup at 77 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: left guard, he gave two possibilities, one being Ike Butcher, 78 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: who replaced Cody in the game when he went out 79 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: with the knee injury, and he also raised the possibility 80 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: of John Feliciano stepping in there. Now. Of course, the 81 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: Bills would have to make the move roster transaction wise, 82 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: take him off of IR activate him to the fifty 83 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: three man roster, but they would have to create an 84 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: opening for him, which then begs the question, how do 85 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: you open that spot up? Do you do it with 86 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: somebody that's injured and might be out a couple of weeks. 87 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: Do you do it, you know, put them on IR 88 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: to open a roster spot, or do you move someone 89 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: off your roster or try to hope they clear waivers 90 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: and then put him on the practice squad. There's a 91 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: number of ways they can do that, but they would 92 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,919 Speaker 1: for Feliciano to be eligible to play on Sunday, they 93 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: would have to do that before four pm on satur 94 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: Otherwise the next decision comes up on Tuesday. That's three 95 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 1: weeks from when John Feliciano started practicing while still on 96 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: IR and there is a twenty one day window in 97 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: which they have to make a decision do we activate 98 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: him off IR now? And Tuesday is the deadline and 99 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: just for history history's sake, getting to read on what 100 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: they've done in the past, they usually wait till the 101 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 1: absolute possible last moment to give any indication whether John 102 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: Felicianos even in the mix. So we'll find out tomorrow. Well, 103 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 1: it was telling though this morning that he said, well, 104 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: John Feliciano is an option there and so is Ike. 105 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: Butker I was like, oh okay, So there's a possibility 106 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: that he could play on Sunday. Is it a strong possibility? 107 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 1: Probably not, But the drop dead date to make a 108 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 1: decision on him coming off BYRS Tuesday, So we'll have 109 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: to we'll see. We'll know where that goes in five 110 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: days time, one way or the other, whether it's Tomorrow 111 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 1: before four pm or Tuesday next week. So we'll keep 112 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: our ear to the ground on that the Thursday night game, Steve, 113 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: there's one glaring headline from this game. Of course, the 114 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: New York tabloids had a field day with this game. 115 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: On the back page. Um oh, it was fun. One 116 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 1: of the papers had three different photos of the debacle 117 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: that the game turned out to be for the Giants 118 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: because they had an eleven point lead late and they 119 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: blew it and lost the game six one, six minutes 120 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: and change left of the game. You got eleven point lead, right, 121 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: So there were a bunch of snaffoos in that game. 122 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: Evan Ingram fumbled late in the red zone, I believe, 123 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: and he had a third down drop yeah on a pass, 124 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: yeah yeah, he couldn't hold on to the football, and 125 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: then there's Daniel Jones, who is surprisingly athletic. Uh. This 126 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: man is on his way to a ninety yard touchdown 127 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: run on a read option keeper. There is nobody thinking 128 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: that Daniel Jones is keeping it. He decides to keep 129 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: it and then gets out over his skis at about 130 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: the thirty yard line and falls down. Were the clear 131 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: path to the end zone. If you watch this play 132 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: from the end zone, and there is nobody that has 133 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: accounted for Daniel Jones on the Philadelphia Eagles defense. This 134 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: guy is cruising to the end zone. Now he sees 135 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: somebody closing on him and then just completely gets out 136 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: over his skis and falls down by himself. I mean, 137 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: he's got bit by the turf the way they're catching him, 138 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: and everyone on the sideline for his team is laughing 139 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: at him. Now I was, now, Steve, I have to 140 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: admit I was flipping back between this and the debate, 141 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: which was another interesting thing altogether last night. And I'm 142 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: not getting into it because I was just all I was. 143 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,679 Speaker 1: All I'm gonna say is I was sitting there saying, 144 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: just stay away from it. Was sitting there saying these 145 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: are the choices, Huh, just stay away, stay away from it. 146 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: So I was slipping back and forth, so I didn't 147 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: see if that did that end in a scoring drive? 148 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: Did they get me end? Okay, so as you can 149 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: laugh about it if you're a Giant's player now, because 150 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: I did not see how that drive ended. Um as 151 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: I was going back and forth. So um yeah. Uh. 152 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: Twitter had a field day with this. I mean, the 153 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: poor man was on like fifteen memes in a span 154 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: of fifteen minutes. It was absolutely spectacular what Twitter did 155 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: with with Daniel Jones and his tumble and you see, 156 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: here's the wind probability. They have the graphs and here's 157 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: him running along the graph and then that and there's 158 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: sound effects and music to go with it. Um awesome. 159 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: They had the music from the Prices right the yodeling 160 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 1: where the gut thing and then it crashes, the sound 161 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: effect when he crashed. My gosh, it is an absolutely 162 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 1: priced I like priceless. And and let me tell you 163 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 1: something I've you know, I played for thirteen years and 164 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: all that, so we had some moments like this in 165 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 1: during my career and it is absolutely priceless. What happens 166 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: in films the next day, Oh my gosh, it is 167 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: and it is an absolute that just have to start 168 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: this from run to everybody in the room. He has 169 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: a shot at it, right, they all have a drive 170 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: by line. Right. I gotta tell you a story when 171 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: I was first traveling with the team writing for Bill's Digest. 172 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: I think it was two thousand and three, and we're 173 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: on a plane trip for a road game. I don't 174 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: know where we were going, and we're flying down and 175 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 1: or no, it was a cross country trip. I think 176 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: we're flying to Seattle and that's why. So they had 177 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: the movie screen up there. You know they were gonna 178 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: have the guy. This is before you had seatback screens 179 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: for everybody in every seat. So they had the big 180 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: screen on the wall there, and so the players are watching, 181 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: they're getting ready to queue up some movie and all 182 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: of a sudden, there's a there's a pre role on 183 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: the video and it's Drew Bledsoe totally emasculating tight end 184 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: Mark Campbell with some of the most embarrassing video you've 185 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: ever seen in your life. And it was around the 186 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving time, and you know that Thanksgiving joke that you 187 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: guys used to always play, Yeah, it was alive and 188 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: well okay, and so they played that and Mark Campbell 189 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: did not know what to do with himself, so and 190 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: he was a veteran player. And then they showed some 191 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: film and him tripping over himself and everybody was uproariously laughing. 192 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: It's just it was something. Yeah, there's there are no 193 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: holds barred when it comes to embarrassing guys on film. 194 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: And this this will follow Daniel Jones for the rest 195 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 1: of his life. Oh you know who he should call. 196 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: He should call Mark sanch Sanchez to say, how do 197 00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 1: you handle something like exactly? That was already somebody said it. 198 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: I mean two seconds every habit said Mark Sanchez thinks 199 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: he might be off the hook? Now yeah, Mark Sanchez 200 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: online one right, Um for the butt fumble, it's just 201 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: and then let the New York jokes flow. You know, 202 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: these two New York teams and where they're going here. Um, 203 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: leave it to the two New York football franchises to 204 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: have a butt fumble and a touchdown stumble. I guess 205 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: is what we should call the other one, right, because 206 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: that's a sure fire touchdown. Oh that was yeah, that 207 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: was it was. It was the highlight of the night. 208 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 1: It was and the kid the game turned out to 209 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: be extremely good um and Carson Wentz won it with 210 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: an absolutely phenomenal throw down the right sideline with forty 211 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: seconds left. I think it was like a twenty yard 212 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: twenty five yard throw. I don't even know if it 213 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 1: was that far, but he hit Austin Davis. I believe 214 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: the kid's name is five six running back over the top, 215 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: hit him and in stride with an absolutely golden throw 216 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,199 Speaker 1: and they win the game on it. It was a 217 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: It was an actually turned out to be a very 218 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 1: good game for all the snick snickers and the laughing. 219 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: It was going on about the ANC NFC East and 220 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: nobody can win a game there. Four of the victory 221 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 1: on now five I guess of the victories maybe now, 222 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,719 Speaker 1: so there's six wins in the entire division. Four of 223 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: them are against each other. Somebody had to win. And 224 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: then there's a tie in there as well, which is 225 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: particularly particularly excruciating. Philadelphia Eagles, by virtue of that tie, 226 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: are in first place in the division, which says all 227 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: you need to know about the NC East this year. Yeah, 228 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: I you look at that, and to be to have 229 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: your division leader be essentially two games under five hundred. 230 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: But we heard Kyle Brandt say it's Steve. We heard 231 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: him say it. He made a call, he said, you 232 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: watch Philadelphia Eagles are gonna win this division with a 233 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: six nine one record. Yeah, that tie is going to 234 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: be the tie breaker. Yeah, that is. That is the 235 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: ultimate slap to the NFL and the way they run it. 236 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: Uh not, No, not not the NFL, the NFC East, 237 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: the four big market team I mean, let's face it, 238 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: those are the heavy. Every time there's a Monday night 239 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: game or a Sunday night game or a Thursday night game, 240 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: one of those four teams is on it, right, Dallas, 241 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: New York, Washington, Philly and Philly. And Washington can't get 242 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: on it because they've been so bad for so long. 243 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: Even they can't get on it. They can't even get 244 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: on the on a night game. So it's gonna be Philly, Washington, Philly, Dallas, 245 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: and New York at least once a week every week, right, 246 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: one of those teams is gonna be on And they 247 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: have four wins in the division. Four wins, that's rough. Oh, 248 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 1: they have two games outside the division that we're wins 249 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: and they have a tie, right, is that right? I think? Well? Yeah, yeah, 250 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: six wins, four those wins are in the division. The 251 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: other two are outside that. I don't know who they were. Well, 252 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: we know how to beat each other. Not so sure 253 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: about the rest of the league. God, yeah, they're already 254 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: calling at the NFC least. So there that is jam 255 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: Pack show here on Friday as we as is usually 256 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: the case, but even more so right now.

Yeah, 284 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 1: h was that the week after they lost all those 285 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: defensive players in the Giants game. That may have been 286 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: let's see Philly. That doesn't matter. They beat him in 287 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: week four, yeah, twenty five, twenty Yeah at San fran 288 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: So yeah, that's that's it. They went they two losses, 289 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: a tie to the Bengals, and they beat San fran 290 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: before last night beating the Giants. We do want to 291 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: get to a comment that coach McDermott made today. He 292 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: was asked about a subject that we know has been 293 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: a popular one here on the show with callers calling in, 294 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: they've been asking a lot about Tremaine Edmonds. Why is 295 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: any more of a playmaker? Why isn't he making more 296 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: splash plays? Why aren't we seeing him show up when 297 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: we're watching games more off and with game changing type plays. 298 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,439 Speaker 1: He was a first round pick, they traded up to 299 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: get him. You know, he was a pro bowler last year. 300 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: Why aren't we seeing him take the next step this season? 301 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: So coach McDermott was asked, do you need more splash plays, 302 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: you know, big time plays from your middle linebacker in 303 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: this defense? And his short answer was yes. And then 304 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 1: there was a follow up question in terms of what 305 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 1: he really does need from him, And so here is 306 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: coach McDermott addressing Tremaine Edmonds and his efforts to get 307 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 1: better on the field. I think it just starts with 308 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:39,159 Speaker 1: understanding and then clarity for him and being decisive more 309 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: than anything's out to your earlier point, Um, you know 310 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: you've got to be decisive and at the end of 311 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: the day, it may not always be perfect, but that 312 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: this is not a perfect game. It's you know, it's 313 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: there's certain times with techniques involved. There's other times when 314 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: it's recognition. There's other times we just gotta gotta blow 315 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,479 Speaker 1: things up. He's working extremely hard right now to improve 316 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: his game, and and that's we're here to do his 317 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: coaches as well. And this is sometimes things like this happened, 318 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,479 Speaker 1: right and we have to continue to work develop players 319 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: as coaches. And that's as much on me as as anyone. 320 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: And the great part about it is Tremans committed to 321 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: working through it. And you know, he did have the 322 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: injury and now we're getting healthier and we expect really 323 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: for him to come out of this flying high with 324 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: a great season through the rest of the season here, 325 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: So you know, and coach also said, you know, his 326 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 1: development is as much on us as coaches as it 327 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: is on him, which I think is the approach that 328 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: this coaching staff has always taken. Um if a player 329 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: is having a problem, they don't just toss him on 330 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: a scrap heap or turn to somebody else all the time, 331 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: they will work with that player to make them better. 332 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,919 Speaker 1: And I think we all know that Edmonds is a worker, 333 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,439 Speaker 1: So you know he's going to put the time in 334 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 1: to be better. But Steve, I want to ask you 335 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: this because I've heard this before from coaches when talking 336 00:18:56,040 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: about the defense. Sometimes you're not in a perfect call 337 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: and you realize it too late. And I know in 338 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: this defense there are base rules that they can turn 339 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,919 Speaker 1: to if they're not in the best call to just 340 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: play it this way. It may not be the best 341 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: way to play what they think is coming, but it's 342 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: good enough to live to the next down and minimize 343 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: the game. And then there's also this philosophy that I've 344 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:27,199 Speaker 1: heard from coaches sometimes too, and it says, do not 345 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: play slow because you're not one hundred percent sure. Play 346 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: fast even if you're you think you might be wrong, 347 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 1: because playing slow will get you killed in this league. 348 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,199 Speaker 1: What do you say to that, because it sounds like 349 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: coach was hinting at that a little bit, you know, saying, 350 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: don't doubt yourself, just play fast and go. That's what 351 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 1: I heard too. Teams are doing what they can to 352 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 1: cross him up, and yeah, I think he is. He's 353 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: playing like he's thinking he's too worried about being wrong 354 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: he correct. I think that maybe that's got to be 355 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: some of it. I think he's playing a little tentative, 356 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 1: I think, and it was probably exacerbated by the fact 357 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: that he wasn't a fully one hundred percent. Yeah, I don't. 358 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: I think for a while he was playing like, Okay, 359 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go over here and make this tackle, but 360 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: I gotta make sure I don't tackle him on that shoulder, 361 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 1: that kind of thing. I got to take him on 362 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 1: this way. I gotta you know, I can't take the 363 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: blocker on with that shoulder. I can't. I can't punch 364 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: the guy with that shoulder. And that when you start, 365 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: when you start thinking about playing, uh, with some limitations 366 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: physically at that spot, it's hard to just react and 367 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: go yeah. And that's that may be part of what 368 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: it was, at least for a moment. We're six games 369 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 1: into the season and he's been probably healthy for what 370 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: three of them? Two of them? Yeah, so I'm uh, well, 371 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: actually it was week one where he got his shoulder, 372 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: heard right, So ye didn't play a week two. Yeah, 373 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: I don't think he's one hundred percent. So you can 374 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: really sense his distraction about not being one hundred percent. 375 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: And and also you know there's some team the teams 376 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,479 Speaker 1: out there there listen they're trying to cross him up, 377 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: so and I think he's getting he's unsure of it. 378 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: And it makes a lot of sense for the tentative 379 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: nature of his play and the fact that he hasn't 380 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: been in the middle of it like we've seen him 381 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: be like a year's past. Yeah, but just remember last 382 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: year there was a time where coach McDermott went to 383 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,479 Speaker 1: Josh Allen and said, hey, cut it loose because he 384 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: was worried that he was being too tentative. I think 385 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 1: there has to be the same messaging now to Tremaine Edmonds. Hey, 386 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: you're not going to be right one hundred percent of 387 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: the time. You got good people on the other side 388 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: of the ball. They're scheming against you, They're gonna get 389 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: you on a couple. You're not gonna win every single play, 390 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: but man, every play, cut it loose and just go. 391 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 1: I mean, he's so athletic he could be wrong and 392 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:49,879 Speaker 1: make a big play, you know what I mean, Like 393 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 1: he is that talented. Yeah, but he's got to play 394 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 1: with aggression and confidence. And you know that's whether he's 395 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 1: there now or not. And certainly I don't know that 396 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: you're to a guy who's not one hundred percent, you 397 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: go make that say, hey, leg cut up, loose a 398 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 1: little bit. I don't think you do that. Then if 399 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: he's not one hundred percent, I think they'll continue to 400 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: work with him in every way they can. But when 401 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 1: he does get to be a one hundred percent, they're 402 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,400 Speaker 1: going to start working with him in a different way, 403 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: because I think that makes all the difference in the world. 404 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 1: Let's go to the phones at eight oh three five 405 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: fifty one, eight eighty five fifty two, five fifty we 406 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 1: go to Charlie and North Buffalo. Who leads us off today? Charlie, 407 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,959 Speaker 1: welcome to One Bills Live. What do you have for us? 408 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 1: I have one question for you, guys. Caylatulier opted out 409 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: for the year, right he possibly come back if he 410 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 1: wanted to. No, once you opt out, it's done, deal, Lucille, Oh, 411 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 1: it's done. Okay. Not an option. And once you opt in, 412 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: you can't opt out either, so it's it's a one, 413 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: one and done decision. So yeah, it's it's not an option. Charlie. Sorry, 414 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: because if it was, you have to believe that this 415 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: team would be on the phone with Star every single 416 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,360 Speaker 1: day asking him to come back. Come on buddy, come 417 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: on back in. But yeah, once you opt out, it 418 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: was end to all b all season done. You take 419 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: your stipend in money for not playing, and your contract 420 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: gets pushed into next year. That's kind of how it 421 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: all worked when the opt outs were originally made. It 422 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 1: looks like we're gonna have to go to the football 423 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 1: crisis hotline, as we have Jack on a sell football 424 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 1: crisis hotline. What's your emergency? Jack? Well got a real 425 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 1: big dilemma you're both married to. You'll understand. I had 426 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: a TV that wouldn't stream any longer, so I went out. Well, 427 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: I first called tech support all that noise, and they 428 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,199 Speaker 1: told me you had to have a technician out. So 429 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: I wanted a store and bought a beautiful new seventy 430 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 1: five inch TV and hung it on the wall. Nice. 431 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: My return policy is up Monday. So I unplugged the 432 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: other TV, got this one up on the wall, plugged 433 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 1: the other one that was supposedly defective in another room, 434 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,719 Speaker 1: and it worked. Now, my alemay, I know what your 435 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 1: dilemma is, Go ahead though you needed seventy five inches? 436 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: Or do I and go back to my other one? 437 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:13,719 Speaker 1: Or do I you know, way what's the size the 438 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: other one. What's the size of the other one? Sixty five? Okay, 439 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: so we're talking a ten inch difference. All right, here's 440 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: here's your other question. And my question is this, how 441 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: good at you are are at unloading stuff on like 442 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: eBay or Craigslist or something like that. So you could 443 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: recoup a lot of the cost or some of the 444 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: cost of the new TV and get the and get 445 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: rid of the old TV, you know, for a couple 446 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: of bucks. A couple is all you get, though, you know, 447 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: maybe I get two hundred dollars, maybe two fifty. Yeah, yeah, 448 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: but how old is it? How old is the other 449 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: the old set? A year and a half? Believe? Oh 450 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: you could sell that. Yeah, that you can sell that. 451 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 1: You could do it. You job of it. You could 452 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: get that. That means you get the bigger TV for 453 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,040 Speaker 1: a big discount. And that's what you talk Otherwise, I 454 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: know it's a little pain otherwise, Jack, I don't know 455 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: what your home setups like. But if you got a 456 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: back patio, you know, in this era of the pandemic, 457 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: they want to get yourself a TV arm and kind 458 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: of set something up outside. Yeah, you might want to. 459 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 1: You might want to put that older television, explore the 460 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: options of getting that TV into another room or outside 461 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: or something like that. So I would what are your 462 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: anticipated what's the anticipated pushback of you having the two TVs? Well, 463 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 1: that means we have another TV that was where I 464 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 1: put the defective one that's setting in the living room 465 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: floor right now. Right. Pushback is women don't like to 466 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 1: spend money on toys like that. You know that. Yeah, Um, 467 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: I would say this. I would see if there is 468 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 1: another viable location for that set and if so, now Jack, 469 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: you gotta be prepared to do the work on making 470 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 1: it work in your house somewhere else. But if you 471 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: feel comfortable doing that, because I mean these mounting arms 472 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: and brackets on walls, they're a lot easier than they 473 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: They're pretty easy. I mean, if you're even remotely handy, 474 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 1: you can do it. And so if you can come 475 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,239 Speaker 1: up with a good alternative plan as to where that 476 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: set could live that you think would be appealing to 477 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: the misses, I would say, yeah, propose it and see 478 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 1: what the reaction is. And that might be a way 479 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 1: for you to hold onto a number one and then 480 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: number two. Give yourself more options, especially if you have 481 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: any living space in the back I mean, you bring 482 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: it in in the wintertime. It's not an outdoor TV obviously, 483 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: but that's what I did during the pandemic. I got 484 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 1: a TV and put it on my back patio. And man, 485 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: that's pretty good this summer, bringing friends over and stuff. 486 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: You're outside, You're fine. What about it? Jack? Well you'll 487 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: laugh at this. Man, I've got a twelve projection screen 488 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 1: that I've put up in the backyard. All right, all right, Jack, 489 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: you're way ahead of the game. Here. Here's the thing. Jack, 490 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: you might if you've got a place for another TV, 491 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: and you could use it and it would enhance your 492 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 1: convenience around the house. You gotta keep it. But there's 493 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: no way I give up the bigger TV. That you 494 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 1: just keep the big TV.

I'm gonna, I gotta. Here's the thing. 583 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 1: So you always come in as a rookie and you 584 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 1: don't know exactly what you do, but sometimes you want 585 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: to just keep away from making the big mistakes. So 586 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 1: Nick Nikolau was our coach, right, And Nick says, we're given, 587 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: and here's for you young guys. We give because we're 588 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: going to no huddle, right, is that right? So we're 589 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: going to know a huddle. Nick says, we give the 590 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: plays nicknames.

And Brad makes the mental mistake 596 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: of all time. He says his real nickname it was Superman. 597 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 1: So huge men leg James Lofton from that moment on, 598 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: From that moment on, he wasn't Superman. He wasn't even 599 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: Clark Kent. He was lowest lane. Oh dear god, so 600 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: the biggest rookie mistake mental mistake of all time, Brad 601 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: Lamb made it. Oh boy, that was great, that is great. 602 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: I had to live with that one for a while. 603 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: Huh oh man, too long. I was thinking about that today. 604 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: I said, all you gotta do is mention one thing 605 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: and he'd get it. Yeah, that's right. Was that was it? Yeah? 606 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: Great to see it. I read that you you actually 607 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: broke your legs senior year in college. Where how worried 608 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: were you that that might have cost you an opportunity 609 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: to get drafted? I mean, you ended up getting drafted 610 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: in the eighth round. But what was that like? Breaking 611 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: your leg senior year? You know that's the that's the 612 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 1: showcase year, you know. Yeah? That was it was? It was, 613 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. It crushed my spirits there for a 614 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: little while. My faith kind of kept kept me in 615 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: the ball game there. But I was thinking they were 616 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 1: projecting me as a as a sleeper to come in 617 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 1: around the first to third rounds. And then when I 618 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 1: broke my ankle, it was whether or not because I 619 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:11,919 Speaker 1: had a steel plate in seven screws. But then whether 620 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: or not I was even going to get draft or 621 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: even get an opportunity to play. But as God orchestrates everything, Uh, 622 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 1: it just allowed me to end up going to a 623 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,240 Speaker 1: team and to three Super Bowls and meet great people 624 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: and great friends like Steve. Whereas if I'd win any 625 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: higher in the rounds, I'd have never never been to Buffalo, 626 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: and then I'd cherished my time there. And then and 627 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: then Brad, like were you were you obviously not one 628 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 1: hundred percent healthy to go to Did you go to 629 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: the combine? You went to the combine? Didn't you? Well? 630 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 1: I did, um, but I had only been out of 631 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: my rehab for about a week and two um broke 632 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 1: broke my ankle and November, I believe it was. I 633 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: got out of rehab and late January was trying to 634 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 1: get back before the combine, and so I didn't have 635 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: a very good combine. And yeah, because I saw I 636 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 1: think you ran like a four seven one, and I 637 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: was like, this guy's attracted campion. Something's got to be 638 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: wrong here, right. Yeah, that was that, and uh, you know, 639 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,359 Speaker 1: I was a little bit nervous. I came off they 640 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: had It was funny story. I had a one of 641 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 1: the combine scouts to bledsoe combined scout came down and 642 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 1: he tied me. My track coach was out there with 643 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 1: me helping him time, and my first time from from 644 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,839 Speaker 1: him was a four two six. And the scout looked 645 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: down and staid, they'll never believe this. I said, I'm 646 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 1: gonna put a four to three one, and so I 647 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 1: never got to officially accept my four to two six, 648 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 1: but I'll take a four to three one anyway. Yes, 649 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 1: scouts do that, they they I had. That happened to 650 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 1: me a ton of times when I was getting ready 651 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 1: that I wasn't. It was before the combine, when I 652 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: was coming out. So I'd get a scout come in 653 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: on a Tuesday or whatever, and I'd have to just, 654 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:46,360 Speaker 1: you know, go. It was just me and the scout, 655 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 1: and I would run through their cone drills and all 656 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 1: of that. And you know, I I looked like a 657 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 1: ten year old as a senior in high school. I 658 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 1: was senior in college, right, I was twenty twenty one, 659 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 1: twenty two, and I looked ten. Yeah, So whenever i'd 660 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 1: run those cone and drills and stuff, I would I 661 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: tested physic really well. They would just say, Okay, you 662 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 1: need to run that again because they would time you. 663 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 1: They wouldn't believe it. You had, you couldn't convince them 664 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: with their own clock and their own thumb on the clock, 665 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 1: they wouldn't believe it. And they if you run at 666 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 1: a time and time again before, they would actually even 667 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: write it down if indeed they did. So I'm totally 668 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,359 Speaker 1: with you on that. Well, I tell you what. One 669 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: of the things that impressed me about Steve so much 670 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 1: as uh, you know, being known as a guy that 671 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: can run fast and things of that nature, Steve was 672 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: probably what I would say, the fastest quickest person that 673 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 1: I'd ever been around. And what I meant by that 674 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 1: was when I came into training camp. It was funny 675 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:45,800 Speaker 1: because none of the veterans ever wanted to go the DBS, 676 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 1: never wanted to go against him one on one in 677 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 1: camp because he'd make him look so silly. And uh, 678 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: you know, I would see him even out there on 679 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 1: punt teams and uh punt returned some guys you have 680 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 1: two guys and they would never touch him. He'd getting 681 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 1: down the field making that tackle. So you know, he 682 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: was very impressive and I think the world is Steve, Well, 683 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: you're my favorite guest on Tasker's teammate. It checks in 684 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: the mail brand after that one, not because right about 685 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: now I'm pushing sixty and nobody thinks I was, you 686 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,400 Speaker 1: know there. I couldn't even play high school baseball in 687 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: front of these people. Do you remember do you remember 688 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 1: when we played the Los Angeles Rams was in ninety 689 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,880 Speaker 1: two and Burning Turner, who used to be with the 690 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,399 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills, was one of the receivers that I ended 691 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 1: up unfortunately for him beating out, but fortunate for me 692 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,279 Speaker 1: being able to make the team. Right? Was that a 693 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 1: pot returner in that game? And I remember I was 694 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 1: on the other side of the of the punt team, 695 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 1: the gunner, and I was running down that field and 696 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 1: I was probably a good five yards behind you, and 697 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 1: you end up laying him out with your helmet right 698 00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: in his chest. I'm not still not sure how he 699 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 1: ever held onto that ball. I think get him so 700 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: hard it just stuck into him. But do you remember 701 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 1: that play? Yeah? That's on our opening yeah real, And 702 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: I think it's on our opening real for the show. 703 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 1: We played every time we're on the show that What 704 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: a year did You come? Was out your first year. 705 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: That was that was the absolute first punt of the 706 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 1: entire season. Uh, that that punt right there. It was 707 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 1: the first punt of us of our season right there, 708 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: opening day, and that was. Yeah, you're right, so I remember. 709 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 1: I'm sure he wishes he was with Buffalo right now. 710 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 1: I'm not over there. Yeah, exactly. Awesome to see. It's 711 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,880 Speaker 1: great seeing you man, Thanks for coming on. I appreciate it. Oh, 712 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 1: thank you man. It's been great catching up with you. 713 00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 1: God bless you guys. All right, good to see you. Well, 714 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,839 Speaker 1: that's jersey number eighty one, Brad Lamb joining us here 715 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 1: as the latest answer to Tasker's teammate. Um, yeah, you 716 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 1: jumped on that in a hurry. I was. I was 717 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 1: saving the more obvious stuff for a little bit later. 718 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,839 Speaker 1: The crazy thing is, you know, he was back into 719 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 1: the roster guy, so it was kind of tough for 720 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: him to get on the field consistently because you guys 721 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 1: were such a deep team. Think about me. It was 722 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: it was him Beebes lost In and Andre and you 723 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 1: and and me and Lamb. Yeah, I mean it was. 724 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: It was a It was a hard roster to make, 725 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,320 Speaker 1: and Brad did it. He was his speed was a 726 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: thing that did it for him too. He I mean 727 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:17,840 Speaker 1: I was he said four to two six, which is 728 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 1: so funny because I read four two seven, so he's 729 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: given himself an extra hundredth of a set. They'll take 730 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: anything like again. It's true though. The scouts would come 731 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 1: in and it was all just that, you know, you'd 732 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 1: go out and work out with the scouts, like he said, 733 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: And this especially if you're from a smaller school. Smaller school, 734 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 1: and if you're you're a little guy and you walk 735 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 1: in there and you're like, you don't really look physically mature, 736 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,879 Speaker 1: you know me, Yeah, I mean I seriously looked really young. Yeah, 737 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 1: but if you haven't had it up and go you 738 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: haven't got up. So they would they always just they 739 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,360 Speaker 1: didn't just take it at face value. They'd always like 740 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,359 Speaker 1: double check it, like would you really just do that? 741 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 1: You know? Okay, all right, we'll do it again. Maybe 742 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: he got lucky, do it again, Maybe he jumped. Maybe 743 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,879 Speaker 1: that was maybe I'm your fast time, not you right, 744 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 1: I started late there, so that was It's It's true, 745 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: it's and it still happens today. It still happens today, 746 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:08,640 Speaker 1: although UM teams now with all the cross referencing and 747 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: stuff or you know, that was the thing. That's why 748 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 1: I asked him because I saw that he broke his 749 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,839 Speaker 1: leg or his ankle his senior year, and then I 750 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 1: went and looked up his combine results and her he 751 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 1: clocked a four seven one. I'm like, hold on a second, 752 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, there's no track athlete that's going to run 753 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:29,280 Speaker 1: a four seven one, right, So that's why I wanted 754 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 1: to ask him. Uh, because he wasn't healthy, he wasn't 755 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 1: fully recovered, and yet he tried to cut out a 756 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 1: combined workout anyway. Um, but yeah, four seven one. It 757 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 1: is probably why he went all the way down to 758 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: the eighth round. Yeah, because people are like, oh, he's 759 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,799 Speaker 1: coming off an ankle street. You hear what he said 760 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 1: about your boy? I heard it. I heard it. I 761 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: haven't always been a DBS wanted to cover Steve Tasker 762 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 1: and has been a broken down old man. That's uh, 763 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 1: thank you, that's something right there, man, my new favorite. Yeah. 764 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 1: It's funny because my last clue. If you didn't get it, 765 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,239 Speaker 1: this was my last clue. You're ready. My first in 766 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 1: the last name are each one syllable and a total 767 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: of eight letters. That's the less cool I had. Well, 768 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 1: I guess I could have gone one step further and 769 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,360 Speaker 1: said the initials are b L. Yeah, he said, and 770 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 1: Brad has been and he only played three seasons for 771 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:17,640 Speaker 1: you guys, and then that was it. He was. He 772 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 1: didn't he was from what I read it said he was. 773 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,439 Speaker 1: He was offered the league minimum to stay. They would 774 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 1: resign him at the league minimum, and he thought he 775 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 1: could do better after you know, establishing some cache in 776 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 1: the league on a champion, you know, an AFC title 777 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: team in the Bills, and thought he could get some 778 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,959 Speaker 1: offers somewhere else. But he didn't, and you know, before 779 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: too long, his career was over. He didn't playing again. 780 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 1: He only played three seasons in the Bills uniform, and 781 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 1: then that was it for his whole career. Right. He 782 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 1: got into Super Bowl twenty seven, he got he got 783 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 1: hit on a kickoff return of Super Bowl twenty seven. 784 00:41:53,200 --> 00:42:00,279 Speaker 1: Couldn't finish that game. Um yeah, it was those careers crazy. 785 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,799 Speaker 1: You A bang, it's done, they're over there. Yeah. And 786 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,839 Speaker 1: for the chance of it, I'm meaning the randomness of it. 787 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,919 Speaker 1: When guy goes here and not there and this guy, 788 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,439 Speaker 1: you know, he's out of the league in three years, 789 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 1: or that guy's out of the league in three is 790 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 1: this guy's a ten year career. This guy goes to 791 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: the theres the Hall of Fame on some decision that 792 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 1: was made fifteen years ago where they didn't even know 793 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 1: how good you could be, so it was it's a 794 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:26,360 Speaker 1: it's a huge ripple effect when when that happens and 795 00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 1: his injuries study Anderson University, that gets drafted and then 796 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,359 Speaker 1: plays three years in the league.

So if Ficken is unable to play 825 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,239 Speaker 1: against the Bills, the Jets are going to turn to 826 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 1: Sergio Castillo, a twenty nine year old place kicker slash 827 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 1: punter who spent the past five seasons in the CFL 828 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 1: and one in the XFL before the Jets signed him 829 00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 1: to their practice squad last week as a contingency against 830 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,960 Speaker 1: the COVID nineteen testing rules. So in case something happened 831 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 1: with the protocols and Sam Ficken was ineligible because of COVID, 832 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: they had this guy on their practice squad roster ready 833 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 1: to kick if need be. Well, now he might have 834 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: to be pressed into action because of injury, not anything 835 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,839 Speaker 1: to do with COVID. So it's gonna be they may 836 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 1: have Castillo out there kicking for him on Sunday. Yeah, 837 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:59,439 Speaker 1: and it'll it'll be interesting, but kickers know how to kick, 838 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:03,319 Speaker 1: but the operation will be new. I mean, yeah, you 839 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:05,280 Speaker 1: gotta you know. He hasn't worked with the long snapper 840 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,239 Speaker 1: in the holder very long now, but he's it's not 841 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 1: like the guys just fell off a turnip truck. He's 842 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 1: twenty nine. He's done it for a while. Uh and 843 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 1: CFL is you know, that's no different than than the NFL, 844 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 1: and that at least in terms of kicking. Right, So yeah, 845 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 1: they'll be fine. I don't know how strong a leg 846 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:25,799 Speaker 1: Castillo has um, but yeah, they'll be fine. That it's 847 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 1: interesting for thicking. Who's you want to know? You want 848 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 1: to talk about piling on and now your kickers hurt. 849 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 1: What if the Jets do play well enough to get 850 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 1: into a game where they're gonna need whole right, they 851 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,600 Speaker 1: need a big kick oof? Will Sergio have the Stones 852 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 1: do it? My call in this game is, particularly with 853 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 1: the way the Bills are nicked up. Uh, I think 854 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:54,719 Speaker 1: they've got enough confidence to let guys, you know, not 855 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 1: push to get a guy on the on the field. 856 00:45:57,600 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 1: I don't think the Bills have ever done that. I 857 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 1: think they've always given guys a chance to get one 858 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:03,200 Speaker 1: hundred percent health. They are on the side of caution, 859 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:05,759 Speaker 1: so and I think they will continue to do that. 860 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:07,359 Speaker 1: And I think this game gives them a little bit 861 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:09,560 Speaker 1: of a little bit more breathing room in their margin 862 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 1: of error on the field to say, Okay, that's you know, 863 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 1: we'll be okay. Although cut four corners that are down, 864 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:23,879 Speaker 1: you know, that's not right. Yeadavis is questionable with his back, 865 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 1: Josh Norman with his hamstring, uh, cam Lewis with his wrist, 866 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,439 Speaker 1: got a club on his hand, and Levi Wallace who's 867 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:35,959 Speaker 1: still on ir goodness gracious. Yeah. So suffice to say 868 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 1: that Dan Jackson is a virtual certainty in terms of 869 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: being called up from the practice squad. This week, get 870 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 1: on the Dane Train squad call up um and they 871 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 1: may even have to go a step beyond that. Both 872 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: of your practice squad call ups could be dbs UM. 873 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: Tarin Johnson may get may have to move out right. 874 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,399 Speaker 1: And the Jets aren't one hundred percent either well there, 875 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 1: but their skill position players are getting healthier. As we 876 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,480 Speaker 1: had Eric Allen on earlier this week from New York 877 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:06,840 Speaker 1: Jets dot Com who covers the team for them, and 878 00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 1: he said, looks like Denzel Mims is on track to 879 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,720 Speaker 1: make his NFL debut this week. Crowder was limited on Wednesday, 880 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 1: Crowder was limited, but it's considered I know. I saw 881 00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 1: it written though that it's considered a minor injury. I 882 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 1: don't know. They made him fight through that maybe and 883 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 1: Brashad Perriman is fully healthy after being a little gimpy 884 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 1: each of the last two weeks. Does Crowder? Is he 885 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 1: interested in fighting through sixteen? Maybe not? Maybe not hard 886 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:35,439 Speaker 1: to say. I mean, I don't know him. I don't either, 887 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 1: but still, yeah, there you go. It's all this stuff 888 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,320 Speaker 1: is up up in the ear. Frank Gord didn't practice 889 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 1: a bribe. It's non injuries. You got here right and 890 00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 1: I think we'll see a lot of La Michael p Ryan, 891 00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 1: their rookie fourth round pick. He's been getting more and 892 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 1: more playing time. Actually, he had more snaps than God, 893 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:53,799 Speaker 1: more snaps on the field than Gord did last week, 894 00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 1: even though he didn't have more carries than Gore. And 895 00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 1: I think that's going to continue because he's got to 896 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:02,400 Speaker 1: burst in an explosive step that you know, all respect 897 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:05,799 Speaker 1: to Frank, or he just does not have that anymore. Yeah, 898 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,359 Speaker 1: it's interesting stuff though about the jet kicker, because all 899 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 1: of that stuff comes down to the worst. It's easy 900 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:14,759 Speaker 1: for even the casual fan to construe a situation where 901 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 1: that kicker off the practice squad has to make a 902 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:21,640 Speaker 1: fifty four yard or for the win, or for the tie, 903 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: or to save the game. Let's go to the phone's 904 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 1: real quick here before we get to the top of 905 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 1: the hour, we go to Tim and Marilla. Tim, welcome 906 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:30,480 Speaker 1: to the show. What do you have for us, sir? 907 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,320 Speaker 1: How are you doing? You guys were talking about Tremaine 908 00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 1: Edmund right, the fact that he was injured and you 909 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:42,880 Speaker 1: don't know if he's back healthy totally or not. What 910 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 1: do you think about this? Do you think some of 911 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,480 Speaker 1: his performance issues are the fact that he's been so 912 00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:52,080 Speaker 1: used to playing with Matt Mullane and knowing his you 913 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:54,640 Speaker 1: know how he's going to react to certain things that 914 00:48:55,840 --> 00:49:00,120 Speaker 1: he's not used to playing with the guys next to him. Well, 915 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,680 Speaker 1: I mean I would say this and Tim, thanks for 916 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 1: the call because we are up against the break, but 917 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:06,359 Speaker 1: we appreciate you chiming in here. I will say this, 918 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:10,480 Speaker 1: anytime you have a new player lining up next to you, 919 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:17,279 Speaker 1: there is less of a comfort factor because you just 920 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:22,600 Speaker 1: don't have the snaps together and while you are coached 921 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:25,400 Speaker 1: to trust the man next to you to do their job. 922 00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:31,000 Speaker 1: There was undoubtedly a relationship between Edmonds and Milano that 923 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 1: isn't going to be the same with Edmondson Klin or 924 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:37,279 Speaker 1: Edmonds and Dodson. It's it's just not there. Now. Does 925 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 1: that negatively impact is play? I don't know if it 926 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:43,560 Speaker 1: negatively impacts the plays that he has to make. I mean, 927 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:46,839 Speaker 1: he calls this defense for this team, he knows it 928 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 1: inside and out. This is his third year in the system, 929 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:53,160 Speaker 1: so in terms of knowing what his assignment is, I 930 00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:55,359 Speaker 1: don't think it impacts that. But Steve, as you were 931 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:59,799 Speaker 1: saying earlier, he's thinking right you can almost see it 932 00:49:59,840 --> 00:50:02,200 Speaker 1: on the field. His wheels are turning in his head 933 00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 1: and he hesitates for that half second, and he's not 934 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,000 Speaker 1: at the spot at the time he needs to be 935 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 1: sometimes and that may be and the absence of his 936 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:13,360 Speaker 1: you know, running mate there, Matt Milano, maybe one added 937 00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:15,440 Speaker 1: distraction and he's got to think about is this guy 938 00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:17,879 Speaker 1: gonna be where? It's maybe one more thing that makes 939 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:20,319 Speaker 1: him hesitate and start thinking about something other than making 940 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: the play right in front of him. That could be 941 00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:25,680 Speaker 1: I'm attendance. I kind of agree with you, Brownie. I 942 00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:30,440 Speaker 1: think at Tremaine Edmund's problems and hesitancies and his issues 943 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:34,880 Speaker 1: are him, not Matt Milano. Although there's not having I 944 00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 1: think Milano's absence, along with Tremaine Edmond's injury and everything 945 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 1: else that's going on, I think that lends itself to 946 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:43,760 Speaker 1: the bigger picture of the defense rather than just Tremaine Edmonds. 947 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:47,840 Speaker 1: So I get where you're coming from, and I probably 948 00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:49,560 Speaker 1: there probably is a little bit at least a little 949 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:52,400 Speaker 1: bit of truth in that on some plays, but I 950 00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:54,360 Speaker 1: don't know that you'd have to you could generalize to 951 00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,800 Speaker 1: say that's that is what has been the problem. Yeah, guiding. 952 00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 1: It's more about injuries and the way the game have 953 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:02,399 Speaker 1: been presented to him. All right, we need to take 954 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:05,160 Speaker 1: a break, but when we return, it's a new contest 955 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:08,920 Speaker 1: for you, the Bills fan, to partake in and win 956 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:12,760 Speaker 1: a prize. We'll be giving away a Dawson Knox fanbox 957 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:17,280 Speaker 1: for the winner of our new contest, which is called 958 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:21,920 Speaker 1: Jets Fan, Dolphan or Pats Fan. We'll see if you 959 00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:24,799 Speaker 1: can figure out who it is when we return, and 960 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,840 Speaker 1: contestants must view, read, and accept the rules at Buffalo 961 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: bills dot com slash ob l contests, so check those 962 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:32,200 Speaker 1: out and then give us a call at eight oh three, 963 00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:35,320 Speaker 1: five fifty to see if you can win when we return. 964 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:37,480 Speaker 1: Here on one Bills Live, presented by Kalid to Health, 965 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:52,800 Speaker 1: this is Buffalo Bill's Radio, Bufalo Bills Radio Network Sports Update, 966 00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:57,000 Speaker 1: Your Sports Update. Cornerback Josh Norman tweaked his hamstring in 967 00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:00,120 Speaker 1: practice on Thursday that according to head coach Sean mcdi 968 00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:02,359 Speaker 1: and his status for Sunday's game will be announced later 969 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,640 Speaker 1: this afternoon, along with the rest of the injured Bills players, 970 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 1: including John Brown, Tredevious White, and Matt Milano, among others. 971 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,600 Speaker 1: Cody Ford's on that list as well. Speaking of Milano, 972 00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:15,000 Speaker 1: coach McDermott did say this morning he was hopeful that 973 00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 1: the linebacker would get more reps in practice today than 974 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 1: he did on Thursday when he was a limited participant. 975 00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 1: We'll see what his status is as well. Coach McDermott 976 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:28,480 Speaker 1: also said if Cody Ford cannot man the left guard position, 977 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:32,319 Speaker 1: that the possible replacements are Ike Bucker, who replaced him 978 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: in last week's game when he left with the knee injury, 979 00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:39,240 Speaker 1: or John Feliciano if he is activated off injured reserve 980 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 1: For the Jets.

But hearing Jordan Poyter 1063 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:18,960 Speaker 1: this week, Steve, it seems like they feel pretty confident 1064 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 1: that a lot of the wrongs they need to fix 1065 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:25,880 Speaker 1: are correctable.

And I 1073 00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:51,439 Speaker 1: think the fact that they benched Phillips and Murphy last 1074 00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:55,200 Speaker 1: week that goes a long way around the roster, saying 1075 00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:57,600 Speaker 1: it sharpen the focus a little bit. Quentin Spain is 1076 00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 1: no longer on the team. They are they are fishing 1077 00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:05,640 Speaker 1: right now.

Congratulations, 1167 01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 1: thank you. All right to that, Shane and Dunkirk are 1168 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:45,840 Speaker 1: winner this week. And we'll be playing this every week 1169 01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:47,960 Speaker 1: because this is a lot of fun because you know, 1170 01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:51,960 Speaker 1: you you see all these people all the time. You know, 1171 01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:55,640 Speaker 1: they're on the they're on the Twitter feed during a 1172 01:03:55,720 --> 01:04:00,000 Speaker 1: game and they are going bananas like they're freaking out 1173 01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:01,800 Speaker 1: the game is being played. One of those was the 1174 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:04,880 Speaker 1: one that you read death by field goals because the 1175 01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:07,280 Speaker 1: Patriots fan was so spoiled he couldn't handle all the 1176 01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:11,960 Speaker 1: field goals that were taking place. So just so, and 1177 01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:14,680 Speaker 1: that should be and I think our fans will get 1178 01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:17,240 Speaker 1: a better sense as to how this game works. Very often. 1179 01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 1: What we will do is we will take the tweets 1180 01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:24,480 Speaker 1: from that week, so it's rather current what they're complaining 1181 01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:27,960 Speaker 1: about or irate about, or happy about, or whatever the 1182 01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:30,240 Speaker 1: case might be. So you have to kind of stay 1183 01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:32,640 Speaker 1: up to up to speed on what's going on in 1184 01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:34,880 Speaker 1: the division if you're going to play this game. But 1185 01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:37,840 Speaker 1: we'll continue to play this with each passing week here 1186 01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:41,960 Speaker 1: by giving away a Bills fanbox for the winners of 1187 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:44,600 Speaker 1: the contest.

But fun game to play and we 1192 01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 1: look forward to playing it each and every week. Here 1193 01:04:57,480 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 1: on One Bills Live, we have to take a break, 1194 01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:03,160 Speaker 1: but when we return NFL Films Greg co Sell will 1195 01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:05,560 Speaker 1: join us as he will help us break down the 1196 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:08,560 Speaker 1: x's and oh's of this matchup with the Jets on Sunday, 1197 01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:10,640 Speaker 1: coming your way next here on One Bills Live, presented 1198 01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:23,480 Speaker 1: by Colli. To help this is Buffalo Bill's radio keep 1199 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 1: catcher Chris Brown One Bills Live and joining us on 1200 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:30,440 Speaker 1: the line right now for his weekly visit is senior 1201 01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 1: producer from NFL Films. It's Greg co Sell, also seen 1202 01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:38,440 Speaker 1: on ESPN's NFL Matchup every single weekend. And for some reason, 1203 01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:42,040 Speaker 1: Steve and I are not anticipating that the Bill's Jets 1204 01:05:42,040 --> 01:05:45,360 Speaker 1: matchup is going to make one of the featured games 1205 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:48,360 Speaker 1: that are profiled on the Matchup show this weekend. Are 1206 01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:52,480 Speaker 1: we write about that? Greg? You know, I'm sorry to say, 1207 01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:55,760 Speaker 1: but that's true. For some reason, you know, it was 1208 01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:58,320 Speaker 1: it was tough to cut that game out, but we 1209 01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:01,240 Speaker 1: just had to. Yeah, well, I don't think anybody's complaining 1210 01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:03,880 Speaker 1: about it. I think the Bills are just hoping they 1211 01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:05,520 Speaker 1: can go into this one, get a win, and get 1212 01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:09,160 Speaker 1: the heck out of there. And we've got some some 1213 01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:13,360 Speaker 1: injury situations, probably more so for the Bills than than 1214 01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,160 Speaker 1: even the Jets, who are trying to get healthy too, 1215 01:06:15,200 --> 01:06:18,440 Speaker 1: although it looks like Darnald is going to play yea, 1216 01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:22,040 Speaker 1: So with that in mind, I mean, coach McDermott told 1217 01:06:22,080 --> 01:06:25,120 Speaker 1: us this week they were making preparations to face each 1218 01:06:25,160 --> 01:06:27,800 Speaker 1: of those two quarterbacks, knowing it was somewhat up in 1219 01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:30,640 Speaker 1: the air. But Darnald clearly gives them more at the 1220 01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 1: quarterback position than Flacco, right, Yes, because of his movement ability. 1221 01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:40,560 Speaker 1: Flacco obviously is not a mover. Flacco probably throws the 1222 01:06:40,600 --> 01:06:43,840 Speaker 1: ball better, but Darnald is a better mover and you 1223 01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:46,320 Speaker 1: have to account for that without question. Yeah, how do 1224 01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:48,439 Speaker 1: you what do you think the Jets? I mean, they're 1225 01:06:48,480 --> 01:06:53,520 Speaker 1: looking there's so many issues with the Jets. Everybody's disappointed 1226 01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 1: in them. Where does it start for you? Well, I 1227 01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:00,320 Speaker 1: think their old line has not been very good at all. 1228 01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:04,720 Speaker 1: They've not been able to run the football, I think 1229 01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:07,040 Speaker 1: Donald's been up and down. I know that Adam Gays 1230 01:07:07,120 --> 01:07:09,080 Speaker 1: has become an easy target for a lot of people. 1231 01:07:09,120 --> 01:07:11,360 Speaker 1: I don't go there. I don't I don't rip coaches. 1232 01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:15,800 Speaker 1: I just that's not my thing. But Donald has when 1233 01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,000 Speaker 1: he's played, he's been up and down. He's capable of 1234 01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:22,400 Speaker 1: the spectacular, and he's also very capable of missing routine 1235 01:07:22,440 --> 01:07:24,680 Speaker 1: things by either not seeing it or not turning it loose, 1236 01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:28,919 Speaker 1: or being not consistently accurate. So but he's got he's 1237 01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:32,280 Speaker 1: got skills, and he can make special plays. And the 1238 01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:34,360 Speaker 1: last thing you want is to lose a game because 1239 01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:37,720 Speaker 1: he makes a special player. Two, what do you feel 1240 01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:41,680 Speaker 1: has been the hang up with the Jets being unable 1241 01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:45,240 Speaker 1: to get Chris Herndon, who, by all accounts is considered 1242 01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:48,680 Speaker 1: to be a pretty talented tight end more involved in 1243 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,680 Speaker 1: their offense, especially when you consider the fact that a 1244 01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:54,440 Speaker 1: lot of their top receiving talent has been injured. Mims 1245 01:07:54,480 --> 01:07:58,200 Speaker 1: hasn't played, Perryman missed a couple of games, and now 1246 01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:01,240 Speaker 1: Crowder's dealing with a groin injury, and still it doesn't 1247 01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:03,920 Speaker 1: seem like they can get the ball to Herndon any way. 1248 01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:06,280 Speaker 1: To put your finger on that based on the film. Yeah, 1249 01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:09,280 Speaker 1: that's tough. I mean, obviously there's been times he stayed 1250 01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:11,920 Speaker 1: into pass protect but that's not enough of a reason 1251 01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:14,400 Speaker 1: to say that he shouldn't be more a part of 1252 01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:18,200 Speaker 1: the passing game. I always liked his talent. I know 1253 01:08:18,280 --> 01:08:22,640 Speaker 1: Adam Gase likes his talent, but for some reason, it 1254 01:08:22,840 --> 01:08:26,479 Speaker 1: just he's not been a highly targeted player. Because I 1255 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:30,000 Speaker 1: saw Herndon in the context of that offense, it made 1256 01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:32,200 Speaker 1: me think back to an Adam Gates was the offensive 1257 01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:35,760 Speaker 1: coordinator with Denver and you had Thomas, the big tight end, 1258 01:08:35,880 --> 01:08:39,040 Speaker 1: Julius Thomas, who would line up as the single receiver 1259 01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:41,920 Speaker 1: to the boundary on the backside of trips, backside of 1260 01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:45,519 Speaker 1: three wide receivers, and Julius Thomas was a factor because 1261 01:08:45,520 --> 01:08:49,040 Speaker 1: he had vertical ability. And I saw Herndon being that 1262 01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:52,720 Speaker 1: kind of receiver within the Jets offense. But obviously it 1263 01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:55,599 Speaker 1: has not worked out. Now, I'm not looking at an 1264 01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:58,400 Speaker 1: injury report, but I think, is Denzel Mims do to 1265 01:08:58,400 --> 01:09:00,600 Speaker 1: come back this week? Ye? Well, he's It sounds like 1266 01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:03,280 Speaker 1: I think he's still on IR. So he's not listed 1267 01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:05,400 Speaker 1: on their injury report because he doesn't have to be 1268 01:09:05,400 --> 01:09:08,760 Speaker 1: being on ir but the general consensus down there is 1269 01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:11,760 Speaker 1: he's on track to make his debut. Now. Gaze kind 1270 01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:13,479 Speaker 1: of pumped the brakes on that this week when he 1271 01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,679 Speaker 1: was asked about it, and he said, well, let's hold on, guys. 1272 01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:19,799 Speaker 1: He's had all of five NFL practices, so it doesn't 1273 01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:22,120 Speaker 1: sound like he's a lock. But it does sound like 1274 01:09:22,160 --> 01:09:24,920 Speaker 1: he would be healthy enough to play if they wanted 1275 01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:26,720 Speaker 1: to go that way. So we'll have to just wait 1276 01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:30,080 Speaker 1: and see this. You know, when they drafted Mims, whose 1277 01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:33,160 Speaker 1: tape I liked coming out of college, and signed Perriman, 1278 01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:38,000 Speaker 1: who had moments last year, and I believe even the 1279 01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:41,400 Speaker 1: year before, I thought that would be an interesting combination. 1280 01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:45,839 Speaker 1: Two guys with really good size, two guys with plus speed. Obviously, 1281 01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:47,559 Speaker 1: they have not been able to get them on the 1282 01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:50,840 Speaker 1: field together. Perriman is back and I believe he's okay 1283 01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:54,040 Speaker 1: to go, So I'm just anxious to see what happens 1284 01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:56,760 Speaker 1: with those two guys because I think they form an 1285 01:09:56,760 --> 01:09:59,400 Speaker 1: intriguing outside tandem. Yeah. Well, it looks like the Bills 1286 01:09:59,400 --> 01:10:01,680 Speaker 1: are gonna be the f team with Sam Darnold and 1287 01:10:01,920 --> 01:10:04,760 Speaker 1: maybe all three of his receivers that they anticipated being 1288 01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:06,760 Speaker 1: on the field on the field for the first time 1289 01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:09,720 Speaker 1: here in Week seven of the regular season. But as 1290 01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:12,320 Speaker 1: for Josh and the Bill's offense, they've taken it on 1291 01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:14,400 Speaker 1: the chin the last couple of weeks. Particularly, I thought 1292 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:18,840 Speaker 1: the Bill's plan really predicate against the Chiefs, was really 1293 01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:22,000 Speaker 1: focused on that offense showing up, and the Bills struggled 1294 01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:23,960 Speaker 1: to do that. What did you see in the Chiefs game? Yeah, 1295 01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:27,040 Speaker 1: this last week, well, that was clearly a bad game 1296 01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:30,720 Speaker 1: for Josh. She I didn't think Josh was bad against Tennessee, right, 1297 01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:33,479 Speaker 1: I think that was an easy thing to say because 1298 01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:36,280 Speaker 1: they lost. But I thought this week Josh was not 1299 01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:38,800 Speaker 1: very good. They look, it started on the first play 1300 01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:41,080 Speaker 1: of the game. They wanted to get had him throw 1301 01:10:41,240 --> 01:10:43,719 Speaker 1: an easy bald to Beasley on a quick out route 1302 01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 1: from the slot. It was an empty set and he 1303 01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:49,519 Speaker 1: just missed it badly, a rhythm throw. Then his second 1304 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:52,000 Speaker 1: throw was just as bad. He airmailed Brown who was 1305 01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:54,720 Speaker 1: open on the crosser versus one robber. It was just 1306 01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:58,600 Speaker 1: one of those games where he was inaccurate. And you know, 1307 01:10:58,880 --> 01:11:01,360 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens this week. It's obviously a rematch. 1308 01:11:01,360 --> 01:11:03,160 Speaker 1: It's the I think one of the first rematches of 1309 01:11:03,200 --> 01:11:05,960 Speaker 1: the NFL season. If you think back to that Week 1310 01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:08,599 Speaker 1: one game, there are a lot of design runs for Josh, 1311 01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:11,160 Speaker 1: So we'll see if they go back to that to 1312 01:11:11,200 --> 01:11:13,200 Speaker 1: try to get him in a comfort zone. But this 1313 01:11:13,240 --> 01:11:15,680 Speaker 1: game against the Chiefs was not a good game for 1314 01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:19,520 Speaker 1: him in terms of ball placement, in terms of defense 1315 01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:22,320 Speaker 1: for the Bills, we know that they just pretty much 1316 01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:24,639 Speaker 1: tried to keep everything in front of them against the Chiefs, 1317 01:11:24,680 --> 01:11:28,280 Speaker 1: and understandably so, and gave up a ton of rushing 1318 01:11:28,360 --> 01:11:32,120 Speaker 1: yards in the process. How do you think that may 1319 01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:35,439 Speaker 1: or may not change against the Jets offense that as 1320 01:11:35,439 --> 01:11:37,639 Speaker 1: Steve said, I mean, you really don't know who they're 1321 01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:39,120 Speaker 1: going to put on the field, nor do you have 1322 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:41,400 Speaker 1: munch tape on anybody. I mean, they don't tape on 1323 01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:44,840 Speaker 1: Denzel Mims in this offense. And I'm just wondering how 1324 01:11:44,880 --> 01:11:47,400 Speaker 1: they approach a week like that, especially when it looks 1325 01:11:47,439 --> 01:11:50,040 Speaker 1: like the Bills are going to be shorthanded at cornerback 1326 01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:53,600 Speaker 1: with Josh Norman tweaking his hamstring in practice yesterday, Todavious 1327 01:11:53,640 --> 01:11:56,479 Speaker 1: White's dealing with a back injury. Cam lewis one of 1328 01:11:56,479 --> 01:11:58,760 Speaker 1: the backups as a wrist injuries, playing out there with 1329 01:11:58,800 --> 01:12:01,800 Speaker 1: a club, and By Wallace is still on ir so 1330 01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:05,559 Speaker 1: if you're well, that's a very good it might be 1331 01:12:05,560 --> 01:12:07,439 Speaker 1: you and me, Greg. I mean, I don't know, because 1332 01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:10,719 Speaker 1: they're they're really shorthanded. They're gonna have to call Dane 1333 01:12:10,800 --> 01:12:13,599 Speaker 1: Jackson up from the practice squad, the rookie seventh round pick. 1334 01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:15,360 Speaker 1: He's gonna have to play some kind of role if 1335 01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:17,920 Speaker 1: even one or two of these guys can't go. So 1336 01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:22,080 Speaker 1: I'm wondering, when you're that shorthanded, do you go right 1337 01:12:22,080 --> 01:12:24,439 Speaker 1: back to keeping everything in front of you and forcing 1338 01:12:24,479 --> 01:12:27,599 Speaker 1: the Jets to be consistent and matriculate the ball down 1339 01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:31,160 Speaker 1: the field a tasker? Where's Nate Odams when you need him? 1340 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:34,519 Speaker 1: You know? Right, Listen, I call that I couldn't get 1341 01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:40,240 Speaker 1: through Kirby Jackson, somebody. They're all they're all ghosting me. Well, look, 1342 01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:42,760 Speaker 1: I think that that's probably the way they'll play the 1343 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:47,280 Speaker 1: big There's no question that that the Jets run game is. 1344 01:12:47,800 --> 01:12:50,519 Speaker 1: It's not as good as the Chiefs run game. Although 1345 01:12:50,520 --> 01:12:53,120 Speaker 1: the Chiefs old line was not playing with five ball pros, 1346 01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:56,719 Speaker 1: by the way, nor is the Jets. But I think 1347 01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:59,680 Speaker 1: that la Michael Perryn is a pretty interesting back for 1348 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:01,760 Speaker 1: the Jets. I kind of liked his tape coming out 1349 01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:04,360 Speaker 1: of Florida. I assume they'll try to build on the 1350 01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:07,479 Speaker 1: run game, and this Bill's defense will have to play 1351 01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:10,280 Speaker 1: better up front. They got moved. I mean, as you 1352 01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:12,920 Speaker 1: guys know, sometimes the run game is not fancy at all. 1353 01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:16,360 Speaker 1: It's the offense blocks and the defense can't get moved. 1354 01:13:16,600 --> 01:13:20,360 Speaker 1: And that defensive line, particularly inside, got moved. And they're 1355 01:13:20,400 --> 01:13:22,800 Speaker 1: going to have to play better and not allow the 1356 01:13:22,920 --> 01:13:25,599 Speaker 1: Jets to develop any kind of run game. I know 1357 01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:27,640 Speaker 1: that you've seen the Bills a ton. You watch all 1358 01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:30,920 Speaker 1: these games and you talk to us every week. Trent 1359 01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:33,880 Speaker 1: Murphy got sat down, Harrison Phillips got sat down, Justin 1360 01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:36,760 Speaker 1: Zimmer and Brian Cox Junior got elevated and they sell 1361 01:13:36,840 --> 01:13:40,639 Speaker 1: significant snaps. What did you think of that move? Yeah, 1362 01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:43,040 Speaker 1: you know what, I didn't realize that Brian Cox was 1363 01:13:43,439 --> 01:13:45,559 Speaker 1: even there. And I'm just being honest, and I put 1364 01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:47,840 Speaker 1: the tape on and I see Brian Cox is out 1365 01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:51,560 Speaker 1: there playing what we must have played twenty five thirty snaps. 1366 01:13:51,640 --> 01:13:53,639 Speaker 1: He's more athletic, you know, he's the kind of guy 1367 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:55,400 Speaker 1: when you see him move, you say, this guy could 1368 01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:58,719 Speaker 1: be a pretty good player. I don't think Brian Cox 1369 01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:01,280 Speaker 1: was the problem in this game. I think the interior 1370 01:14:01,320 --> 01:14:04,640 Speaker 1: was the problem, and that's something that needs to be addressed. 1371 01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:08,080 Speaker 1: You just can't get moved like they got moved and 1372 01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:11,320 Speaker 1: expect to defend the run game between the tackles. Speaking 1373 01:14:11,320 --> 01:14:13,599 Speaker 1: of the run game, the Bills run game is still 1374 01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:16,759 Speaker 1: a series of fits and starts. They're just can't seem 1375 01:14:16,800 --> 01:14:21,080 Speaker 1: to win enough at the line of scrimmage. And just 1376 01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:24,160 Speaker 1: based on what my eyes are telling me, Devin Singletary 1377 01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:27,200 Speaker 1: and Zach Moss are trying to make people miss in 1378 01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:29,920 Speaker 1: their own backfield rather than at the second level to 1379 01:14:29,920 --> 01:14:32,320 Speaker 1: turn you know, six or an eight yard get into 1380 01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:36,240 Speaker 1: a fifteen or a twenty yard game. How do you 1381 01:14:36,320 --> 01:14:40,200 Speaker 1: rectify that as a line when you're getting beat at 1382 01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:42,000 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage that way. I mean, that's just 1383 01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:44,960 Speaker 1: I know they've got some Pro bowlers over there, Frank Clark, 1384 01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:47,080 Speaker 1: Chris Jones and all of that in last week's game, 1385 01:14:47,160 --> 01:14:50,880 Speaker 1: but this has been a persistent problem for them in 1386 01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:55,240 Speaker 1: terms of consistently opening holes and driving defensive lines off 1387 01:14:55,280 --> 01:14:58,519 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage for this Bill's offense and Chris 1388 01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:02,080 Speaker 1: that poses a problem for because I think they would 1389 01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:04,040 Speaker 1: like to run the ball, and I think they need 1390 01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:07,320 Speaker 1: to in terms just a volume. But if you're not 1391 01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,160 Speaker 1: successful doing it, you start to feel like why am 1392 01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:14,400 Speaker 1: I doing it, especially when you've got big play potential 1393 01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:17,080 Speaker 1: with your quarterback and your wide receivers. But I think 1394 01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:19,280 Speaker 1: when all's said and done, and you guys know how 1395 01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:21,479 Speaker 1: I feel about Josh Allen, I think he's good and 1396 01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:23,600 Speaker 1: I think he'll get better. I don't think that what 1397 01:15:23,680 --> 01:15:27,040 Speaker 1: we saw last week is a defining thing for Josh Allen. 1398 01:15:27,080 --> 01:15:29,840 Speaker 1: He had a bad game. It happens. But I think 1399 01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:33,320 Speaker 1: you can get caught up easily when you're not running well. 1400 01:15:33,320 --> 01:15:35,639 Speaker 1: And hey, I've got a quarterback who can make special plays. 1401 01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:38,720 Speaker 1: I've got three four wide receivers who can really do 1402 01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:40,800 Speaker 1: good things. So you know what, we're going to throw 1403 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:43,360 Speaker 1: the football. But I think they need to cultivate a 1404 01:15:43,479 --> 01:15:45,960 Speaker 1: run game. And again, I'm not saying just by handing 1405 01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:47,360 Speaker 1: it off all of a sudden, their oline is going 1406 01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:49,639 Speaker 1: to play great. That's not my point. But I think 1407 01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:53,320 Speaker 1: as this season develops to reach where they obviously want 1408 01:15:53,400 --> 01:15:55,880 Speaker 1: to get to, I think they're going to need to 1409 01:15:55,880 --> 01:15:59,400 Speaker 1: be able to run the ball better than they are now. However, 1410 01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:02,040 Speaker 1: they can do it. You've got to stay with it though. 1411 01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:06,200 Speaker 1: You can't abandon running the ball. How did things change 1412 01:16:06,240 --> 01:16:08,960 Speaker 1: with John Brown? How would they change if John Brown 1413 01:16:09,080 --> 01:16:11,000 Speaker 1: is off the field. He played the other night, broke 1414 01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:13,439 Speaker 1: the Brownie and I field. He was hobbled. You got 1415 01:16:13,439 --> 01:16:16,720 Speaker 1: a couple of targets, but mostly he was a placeholder 1416 01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:19,439 Speaker 1: Monday night against the Kansas City Chiefs. What does that 1417 01:16:19,479 --> 01:16:21,800 Speaker 1: do to their offense when John Brown's not out there? 1418 01:16:22,840 --> 01:16:25,360 Speaker 1: A couple of things. It limits their use of four wide. 1419 01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:28,360 Speaker 1: They still do four wide, but not as much when 1420 01:16:28,439 --> 01:16:31,840 Speaker 1: John Brown is not out there, and it takes away 1421 01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:36,160 Speaker 1: a big play weapon because he's he's that guy. So 1422 01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:39,760 Speaker 1: and I think that that Josh Allen feels comfortable with 1423 01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:42,960 Speaker 1: John Brown throwing on the football, so that there's that 1424 01:16:43,040 --> 01:16:45,639 Speaker 1: element as well. So it limits them to some degree. 1425 01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:48,880 Speaker 1: You know, I know it's easy to look at the 1426 01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:51,120 Speaker 1: game this week with the Jets and go they're bad. 1427 01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:54,559 Speaker 1: You know, this should be an easy win. But you know, Steve, 1428 01:16:54,600 --> 01:16:57,920 Speaker 1: you noticed from playing no every coach will tell you 1429 01:16:57,960 --> 01:17:00,720 Speaker 1: that there's no easy wins on Sunday. It's hard every 1430 01:17:00,760 --> 01:17:03,800 Speaker 1: week and you cannot just assume, oh, the Jets are 1431 01:17:03,840 --> 01:17:06,599 Speaker 1: bad Bills get right back on track this week. You 1432 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:09,439 Speaker 1: want to see the Bills this week play well, not 1433 01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:12,320 Speaker 1: just win, hey, Ain, a win is a win, but 1434 01:17:12,360 --> 01:17:15,040 Speaker 1: you want to see them play well because they're they're 1435 01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:18,120 Speaker 1: coming off what was a bad game, certainly and the 1436 01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:20,800 Speaker 1: Tennessee game. The score made to look really bad. But 1437 01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:24,640 Speaker 1: you know, two games that look two losses. So you 1438 01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:26,560 Speaker 1: want to play well. You want to be able to 1439 01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:28,640 Speaker 1: come out of this game not only with the W 1440 01:17:29,040 --> 01:17:31,559 Speaker 1: but feel like we're now trending in the right direction. 1441 01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:35,120 Speaker 1: I'm going to take a wild guess here, Greg that 1442 01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:37,439 Speaker 1: one of your featured segments on the Matchup Show will 1443 01:17:37,479 --> 01:17:40,000 Speaker 1: be Seahawks Cardinals. Am I right about that? Or no, 1444 01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:45,080 Speaker 1: you are correct? Okay, So with that in mind, two 1445 01:17:45,200 --> 01:17:50,120 Speaker 1: dynamic quarterbacks with outstanding mobility and able to make plays 1446 01:17:50,160 --> 01:17:52,599 Speaker 1: off script. I mean it looks like the balls coming 1447 01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:55,280 Speaker 1: out of their hand like a rocket, just free and easy, 1448 01:17:55,360 --> 01:17:58,280 Speaker 1: high angle releases, and obviously you know the way they 1449 01:17:58,280 --> 01:18:02,160 Speaker 1: can run for touchdowns, particularly Tayler Murray. What is the 1450 01:18:02,200 --> 01:18:05,519 Speaker 1: most intriguing things that you pulled out of you know 1451 01:18:05,560 --> 01:18:10,000 Speaker 1: your anticipation for that game. Well, I think the Cardinals 1452 01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:12,320 Speaker 1: offense is interesting. Murray has been very up and down 1453 01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:15,320 Speaker 1: as a thrower. He's got a really good arm. Obviously 1454 01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:17,519 Speaker 1: that's not the point, but his accuracy has been a 1455 01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:20,320 Speaker 1: little erratic. I think the most interesting thing about Murray 1456 01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:23,360 Speaker 1: and the most concerning for Pete Carroll is the design 1457 01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:26,960 Speaker 1: run game, because Murray is really really good at that, 1458 01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:29,880 Speaker 1: and contrary to what people might believe because it's Cliff 1459 01:18:29,960 --> 01:18:33,000 Speaker 1: Kingsbury and the quote unquote area, they also line up 1460 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:35,599 Speaker 1: a lot of snaps with two tight ends on the field, 1461 01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:38,880 Speaker 1: and I think that the run game, the design run game, 1462 01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:42,160 Speaker 1: is fascinating. One thing Pete Carroll's always done. He'll line 1463 01:18:42,200 --> 01:18:45,519 Speaker 1: up with five across with his defensive front, sometimes six 1464 01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:48,080 Speaker 1: across with his defensive front, and I think you'll see 1465 01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:51,200 Speaker 1: that in this game. One other game that's on the 1466 01:18:51,240 --> 01:18:53,320 Speaker 1: docket that everybody seems to be talking about is the 1467 01:18:53,320 --> 01:18:55,840 Speaker 1: five and oh Tennessee Titans hosting the five and oh 1468 01:18:55,920 --> 01:19:00,599 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers. This really should be a good football game. 1469 01:19:00,640 --> 01:19:02,360 Speaker 1: I know, we don't. Yeah, we say that, I don't 1470 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:05,200 Speaker 1: know if it'll actually happen, but man, oh man, people 1471 01:19:05,240 --> 01:19:06,960 Speaker 1: want to see these two teams play. What do you 1472 01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:09,479 Speaker 1: think is going to happen? Yeah? I mean I think 1473 01:19:09,479 --> 01:19:11,400 Speaker 1: both teams are pretty defined. I mean, I think with 1474 01:19:11,439 --> 01:19:13,760 Speaker 1: the Titans you're going to see play action and I'm 1475 01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:16,200 Speaker 1: anxious to see with Devin Bush out and Robert Spilean 1476 01:19:17,240 --> 01:19:20,920 Speaker 1: replacing him, because play action has puts a real stress 1477 01:19:21,040 --> 01:19:24,479 Speaker 1: and burden on linebackers, and the Titans are really really 1478 01:19:24,479 --> 01:19:27,280 Speaker 1: good in the play action pass game. For the Steelers, 1479 01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:31,160 Speaker 1: their pass games really interesting. It's not a highly schemed 1480 01:19:31,160 --> 01:19:33,160 Speaker 1: pass game. It's it's a lot of one on ones 1481 01:19:33,200 --> 01:19:37,520 Speaker 1: on the outside outside the numbers, James Washington, Chase Claypool. 1482 01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:39,400 Speaker 1: So I think the hat has to be warned by 1483 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:42,040 Speaker 1: Malcolm Butler and Jonathan Joseph for the Titans in this game, 1484 01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:45,479 Speaker 1: they can't give up those big plays. And then the 1485 01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:48,519 Speaker 1: last one I've got for you, Greg Tua is in. 1486 01:19:48,800 --> 01:19:51,720 Speaker 1: I know they're not playing this week, but you know 1487 01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:55,280 Speaker 1: next week he'll be going against the Rams. Hello Aaron Donald, 1488 01:19:55,520 --> 01:19:58,400 Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL too. Oh my god. I mean, 1489 01:19:58,439 --> 01:20:00,040 Speaker 1: I understand the move. You want to give him a 1490 01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:02,360 Speaker 1: extra week to prepare and all of that, but that 1491 01:20:02,520 --> 01:20:04,160 Speaker 1: is a heck of a defensive front he's going to 1492 01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:09,160 Speaker 1: be going against. What is your anticipation of that debut? 1493 01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:13,080 Speaker 1: And how it might go against that Rams defense. Well, 1494 01:20:13,120 --> 01:20:16,040 Speaker 1: I think with two of you, you're designing your offense 1495 01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:19,639 Speaker 1: that fits his skill set. He's a he's a timing 1496 01:20:19,720 --> 01:20:22,559 Speaker 1: rhythm thrower. He's got very quick feet on his drop 1497 01:20:22,600 --> 01:20:25,679 Speaker 1: and his set gets back in the pocket really quickly, 1498 01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:28,320 Speaker 1: hits that back foot. I think you want the ball 1499 01:20:28,400 --> 01:20:31,360 Speaker 1: to come out. I think you'll see the RPO game, 1500 01:20:31,439 --> 01:20:33,519 Speaker 1: the run pass option game. He did a ton of 1501 01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:36,800 Speaker 1: that in college. He's very comfortable doing that. I think 1502 01:20:36,800 --> 01:20:39,479 Speaker 1: they'll do everything they can to define the reads for 1503 01:20:39,760 --> 01:20:45,920 Speaker 1: him with high low concepts, flood concepts, things that define reads. 1504 01:20:46,040 --> 01:20:48,160 Speaker 1: By the way the Rams play a lot of zone, 1505 01:20:48,200 --> 01:20:51,439 Speaker 1: it's it's probably a good game for him to start 1506 01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:55,080 Speaker 1: because when a team plays a lot of zone, you 1507 01:20:55,080 --> 01:21:00,639 Speaker 1: can really create pass game concepts to attack voice. So 1508 01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:03,680 Speaker 1: I think putting Aaron Donald aside for the moment, I 1509 01:21:03,720 --> 01:21:05,800 Speaker 1: think that it's actually a good defense for him to 1510 01:21:05,840 --> 01:21:09,040 Speaker 1: make his first NFL start. Well, all across the leader, 1511 01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:10,880 Speaker 1: this last one I've got for you, Greg. All across 1512 01:21:10,920 --> 01:21:13,200 Speaker 1: the league, they always talk about parody and the good 1513 01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:15,600 Speaker 1: team's you know heart, it's hard to stay good, and 1514 01:21:15,640 --> 01:21:17,479 Speaker 1: the bad teams it's easier for them. To get better, 1515 01:21:17,560 --> 01:21:19,840 Speaker 1: and everything kind of levels out of the middle. Kansa 1516 01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:23,559 Speaker 1: City Chiefs continue to add weapons. Levion Bell goes to 1517 01:21:23,600 --> 01:21:26,760 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. What kind of difference can he 1518 01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:28,920 Speaker 1: make that? I know they don't really need that much 1519 01:21:28,920 --> 01:21:32,400 Speaker 1: offensive help, but what does he give them that Clyde 1520 01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:36,160 Speaker 1: Edwards Hilaire doesn't give him? You know, I'm fascinated by this, Steve, 1521 01:21:36,200 --> 01:21:39,000 Speaker 1: because Edwards Hilaire and people may not be aware of this, 1522 01:21:39,120 --> 01:21:41,280 Speaker 1: He's averaging eighteen carries a game. He's second in the 1523 01:21:41,320 --> 01:21:44,080 Speaker 1: league in rushing. I mean, we always think of Patrick Mahomes, 1524 01:21:44,080 --> 01:21:46,479 Speaker 1: and deservedly so, well we think of the Chiefs, But 1525 01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:48,920 Speaker 1: eighteen carries a game in today's NFL is a lot 1526 01:21:48,920 --> 01:21:53,960 Speaker 1: of carries per game. My senses, Levion Bell is going 1527 01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:56,200 Speaker 1: to be used as a past receiver and it would 1528 01:21:56,240 --> 01:21:59,120 Speaker 1: not surprise me, knowing Andy Reid, to see him put 1529 01:21:59,240 --> 01:22:02,320 Speaker 1: Edwards Hilaire and Levion Bell on the field together with 1530 01:22:02,400 --> 01:22:06,400 Speaker 1: three whiteouts and I think put some serious stress on defenses. 1531 01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:08,479 Speaker 1: Where does that stress the defense? The MO was that 1532 01:22:08,560 --> 01:22:10,560 Speaker 1: the linebacking corps trying to match up with one of 1533 01:22:10,600 --> 01:22:12,760 Speaker 1: those two guys, and one of somebody's got to be 1534 01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:15,680 Speaker 1: man a man if you want to play man, absolutely, 1535 01:22:15,880 --> 01:22:18,160 Speaker 1: you know, so, I think that's what they would do 1536 01:22:18,200 --> 01:22:22,040 Speaker 1: now Kelsey. Obviously, I'm not suggesting Kelsey should not play snaps, 1537 01:22:22,080 --> 01:22:24,599 Speaker 1: but I think it gives Andy Read a lot of toys. 1538 01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:27,800 Speaker 1: They out of tools in the tool shed, as they say, so, 1539 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:31,559 Speaker 1: I'm really curious. They're a tough matchup. They played Denver 1540 01:22:31,720 --> 01:22:34,800 Speaker 1: this week. Denver's played a ton of man to man coverage, 1541 01:22:34,880 --> 01:22:36,320 Speaker 1: but I just don't see how they can do that 1542 01:22:36,360 --> 01:22:38,880 Speaker 1: this week because they're playing with a rookie corner in Ojimudia, 1543 01:22:39,080 --> 01:22:43,640 Speaker 1: and they're playing with a journeyman corner DeVante Bosby in 1544 01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:47,439 Speaker 1: their nickel on the outside. So I think teams are 1545 01:22:47,439 --> 01:22:49,920 Speaker 1: trying to keep everything in front. If you want to 1546 01:22:49,960 --> 01:22:53,000 Speaker 1: hand the ball to Edwards, Zilaire, hand the ball to 1547 01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:56,960 Speaker 1: him and see what happens. All right, Greg, As always, 1548 01:22:56,960 --> 01:22:58,519 Speaker 1: we thank you for the insight. We'll look for you 1549 01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:00,439 Speaker 1: on the Matchup show this weekend and catch up with 1550 01:23:00,479 --> 01:23:03,439 Speaker 1: you next week. All right, guys, really appreciate it. Thank 1551 01:23:03,479 --> 01:23:05,160 Speaker 1: you so much. Thank you. All right, that's great co 1552 01:23:05,280 --> 01:23:08,840 Speaker 1: sale senior producer from NFL Films breaking it all down 1553 01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:11,040 Speaker 1: for us, not just Bill's Jets, but some of the 1554 01:23:11,040 --> 01:23:13,599 Speaker 1: other intriguing matchups. I'm telling you, man that that Sunday 1555 01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:17,599 Speaker 1: night game Seahawks Cardinals, I want to watch that, like, 1556 01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:20,639 Speaker 1: I just think it's going to be an entertaining game. Um, 1557 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:23,280 Speaker 1: you don't have to be a fan of either team 1558 01:23:23,600 --> 01:23:25,080 Speaker 1: to want to be glued to the set on that 1559 01:23:25,120 --> 01:23:28,280 Speaker 1: just because their two quarterbacks are so dynamic, not to 1560 01:23:28,280 --> 01:23:30,680 Speaker 1: mention the fact that these are two opponents that the 1561 01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:32,280 Speaker 1: Bills are gonna have to play in a few weeks. 1562 01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:37,400 Speaker 1: So the reason. Yeah, it's amazing to me that Kyler 1563 01:23:37,479 --> 01:23:40,320 Speaker 1: Murray is as successful as he has. So fast, He's 1564 01:23:40,439 --> 01:23:43,320 Speaker 1: very fast. He's he's got stubby little legs. How does 1565 01:23:43,320 --> 01:23:47,880 Speaker 1: he run so fast? He's little, Yeah he's not, but 1566 01:23:47,960 --> 01:23:52,000 Speaker 1: he can scoot. Man, he's not even just he's like 1567 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:55,680 Speaker 1: my size. Yeah that I saw him. I saw him 1568 01:23:55,680 --> 01:24:02,599 Speaker 1: at the combine and I was like, you serious. I 1569 01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:05,599 Speaker 1: mean he's like makes Doug flute. He look like Josh. 1570 01:24:05,680 --> 01:24:08,280 Speaker 1: He's got a rocket arm. He does got a live arm, 1571 01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:11,120 Speaker 1: no question about it. And obviously if you seen him play, 1572 01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:14,320 Speaker 1: he is a jitterbug in the strictest sense of the 1573 01:24:14,320 --> 01:24:17,320 Speaker 1: word strong runner. I mean he's and he pulls through 1574 01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:21,280 Speaker 1: and he yeah, he is fearless too. He'll go through 1575 01:24:21,439 --> 01:24:24,160 Speaker 1: a narrow gap and make it work. Uh. And as 1576 01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:26,800 Speaker 1: MSG virs a scene, he's got a live arm. Uh 1577 01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:28,800 Speaker 1: and he does. And he plays quarterback. I mean, it's 1578 01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:32,160 Speaker 1: not like one of these gimmicky No, he can't read defenses, 1579 01:24:32,200 --> 01:24:35,120 Speaker 1: he can't drop back and find anybody. The guy plays quarterback, 1580 01:24:35,200 --> 01:24:38,960 Speaker 1: So he's a It's it is gonna be a lot 1581 01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:42,880 Speaker 1: of fun to watch this game and also watch Russell 1582 01:24:42,880 --> 01:24:45,760 Speaker 1: Wilson take him on, uh, because Russ is as good 1583 01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:48,800 Speaker 1: as it gets in the league. And I think I 1584 01:24:48,840 --> 01:24:53,920 Speaker 1: think the Seahawks take that game because their quarterback is 1585 01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:57,880 Speaker 1: more precise. He's a more precise player. He's a better 1586 01:24:58,280 --> 01:25:02,800 Speaker 1: he's a better pass right now than Kyler Murray. Whether 1587 01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:07,599 Speaker 1: you want to talk deep ball, accuracy, decision making, give 1588 01:25:07,680 --> 01:25:11,280 Speaker 1: me the thirty one year old that's Russell Wilson has 1589 01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:14,959 Speaker 1: is the only quarterback in football to have thirty touchdown 1590 01:25:14,960 --> 01:25:17,200 Speaker 1: passes in each of the last three seasons, and he's 1591 01:25:17,200 --> 01:25:19,839 Speaker 1: clearly gonna make it four in a matter of weeks. 1592 01:25:20,760 --> 01:25:22,800 Speaker 1: He's in there's a reason when you start talking about 1593 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:24,880 Speaker 1: his numbers in the first eight or not whatever nine 1594 01:25:24,920 --> 01:25:27,080 Speaker 1: years of his career. If you're gonna start talking about 1595 01:25:27,160 --> 01:25:29,639 Speaker 1: numbers that he has put up, both touchdowns in that kind, 1596 01:25:29,880 --> 01:25:32,200 Speaker 1: you talk about the guys who did as much of 1597 01:25:32,240 --> 01:25:34,240 Speaker 1: that stuff as he has done over the first nine 1598 01:25:34,280 --> 01:25:37,040 Speaker 1: years of his career, and there's a list that is 1599 01:25:37,080 --> 01:25:41,080 Speaker 1: not even not even five guys big, It's less than 1600 01:25:41,120 --> 01:25:43,520 Speaker 1: a handful of guys who have done what he has done. 1601 01:25:43,439 --> 01:25:46,360 Speaker 1: It's like it's like Tom Brady and Peyton Manning and 1602 01:25:46,600 --> 01:25:50,120 Speaker 1: Russ Graves. I mean, that's it. Yeah, I mean, but 1603 01:25:50,240 --> 01:25:53,320 Speaker 1: even those guys in the last three you know, Brees 1604 01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:56,040 Speaker 1: is still playing, Brady's still playing. Neither of those guys, 1605 01:25:56,280 --> 01:25:59,880 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, none of those guys have thirty touchdown passes 1606 01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:02,160 Speaker 1: in each of the last three seasons. And Russell Wilson's 1607 01:26:02,160 --> 01:26:04,160 Speaker 1: gonna make it four this year barring an injury, because 1608 01:26:04,200 --> 01:26:06,240 Speaker 1: I think he's at nineteen already, and what are we 1609 01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:08,880 Speaker 1: six six games into the season. I mean, it's ridiculous, 1610 01:26:09,280 --> 01:26:12,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, I would, I would guess Seattle pulls that 1611 01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:16,240 Speaker 1: game out unless you know there's some unforeseen turnover. Russell 1612 01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:20,280 Speaker 1: Wilson's on track. He's in a conversation for MVP. If 1613 01:26:20,320 --> 01:26:23,280 Speaker 1: he were to do that and go that and the 1614 01:26:23,439 --> 01:26:26,640 Speaker 1: and the Seahawks go deep and there, even if they 1615 01:26:26,680 --> 01:26:28,639 Speaker 1: don't win this World Championship, or even if they don't 1616 01:26:28,680 --> 01:26:30,639 Speaker 1: win the NFC, if they just win a playoff game 1617 01:26:30,680 --> 01:26:33,080 Speaker 1: and get out of the playoffs, whatever, Russell Wilson has 1618 01:26:33,120 --> 01:26:35,479 Speaker 1: put together a Hall of Fame career in ten years, 1619 01:26:35,920 --> 01:26:40,400 Speaker 1: in nine years, without question, that's how good he has been. 1620 01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:43,280 Speaker 1: He'll have two Super Bowls and one win under his belt. 1621 01:26:43,560 --> 01:26:46,559 Speaker 1: He'll have an MVP under his belt in that case. 1622 01:26:46,960 --> 01:26:50,200 Speaker 1: And he's the guy, no question about it, he would 1623 01:26:50,200 --> 01:26:53,920 Speaker 1: put he would have right before our eyes. That guy 1624 01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:56,040 Speaker 1: who's a third round draft pick goes to the hell, 1625 01:26:56,080 --> 01:26:58,599 Speaker 1: he'll go to the Hall of Fame. That guy's amazing, 1626 01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:01,840 Speaker 1: he said. And else for sure, we have to take 1627 01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:04,719 Speaker 1: a break, but when we return, we'll get a little 1628 01:27:04,720 --> 01:27:06,960 Speaker 1: bit more into this game, and we'll also hit the 1629 01:27:07,080 --> 01:27:10,559 Speaker 1: OBL fan mail bag. We got to hit that coming 1630 01:27:10,640 --> 01:27:12,960 Speaker 1: up next here on One Bill's Live, presented by Kalid 1631 01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:27,639 Speaker 1: to Health. This is Buffalo Bill's Radio all right. Time 1632 01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:31,960 Speaker 1: to dive into the OBL Friday fan mail bag, and 1633 01:27:32,640 --> 01:27:34,320 Speaker 1: the tweet sheet has brought to you, as always by 1634 01:27:34,400 --> 01:27:38,400 Speaker 1: Corrigan moving Systems, the official equipment moving company, the Buffalo Bills, 1635 01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:40,240 Speaker 1: and we get the first one from Nick. He says, 1636 01:27:40,360 --> 01:27:42,479 Speaker 1: is Tremaine's injury the type that could fully heal if 1637 01:27:42,520 --> 01:27:45,479 Speaker 1: we gave him a few weeks off. If possible, I'd 1638 01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:47,320 Speaker 1: rather let him miss the next few games to get 1639 01:27:47,400 --> 01:27:49,160 Speaker 1: him fully healthy for the latter part of the season 1640 01:27:49,240 --> 01:27:51,960 Speaker 1: in playoffs, rather than continue to play him at fifty 1641 01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:56,639 Speaker 1: percent health every week. I will say this. Coach McDermott 1642 01:27:56,760 --> 01:28:04,000 Speaker 1: had given indication that if strengthening exercises and whatever else 1643 01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:07,160 Speaker 1: the strength and conditioning department and the athletic training department 1644 01:28:07,200 --> 01:28:11,840 Speaker 1: feels is appropriate, can get him back to But by 1645 01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:16,120 Speaker 1: playing through it, it's slowing down the recovery process. But 1646 01:28:16,240 --> 01:28:18,680 Speaker 1: they believe in time he will get it all the 1647 01:28:18,720 --> 01:28:21,920 Speaker 1: way back to where it needs to be. But coach 1648 01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:23,720 Speaker 1: also said it's something he's probably gonna have a deal 1649 01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:26,479 Speaker 1: with the rest of the year. Right. That's what we've 1650 01:28:26,520 --> 01:28:28,960 Speaker 1: seen it before, where a guy plays through the season, 1651 01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:31,720 Speaker 1: all of a sudden in February or or March, he's 1652 01:28:32,760 --> 01:28:34,840 Speaker 1: on the table getting getting his shoulder work, and we 1653 01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:38,360 Speaker 1: don't know the nature of his We don't know what 1654 01:28:38,439 --> 01:28:40,760 Speaker 1: it is either We don't know what the specific thing is, 1655 01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:43,200 Speaker 1: but I would I would say if they think what 1656 01:28:43,439 --> 01:28:45,400 Speaker 1: he had, if if he was a guy working in 1657 01:28:45,439 --> 01:28:48,799 Speaker 1: an office building, he's going through have nobody knows any different, 1658 01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:51,000 Speaker 1: and he starts feeling better, goes through it, and in 1659 01:28:51,520 --> 01:28:54,400 Speaker 1: what six weeks it's fine. As is, when he's trying 1660 01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:56,720 Speaker 1: to play professional football and practice and prepare to play 1661 01:28:56,760 --> 01:28:59,640 Speaker 1: and stay in shape, it's a three month thing and 1662 01:28:59,680 --> 01:29:02,800 Speaker 1: he may not be right until after the seasons over. Yeah, 1663 01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:05,479 Speaker 1: that's just the way it life is. So you know, 1664 01:29:05,640 --> 01:29:07,600 Speaker 1: during the course of the week, he may strengthen it, 1665 01:29:07,880 --> 01:29:09,840 Speaker 1: work on it, and get it all the way up 1666 01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:13,519 Speaker 1: to ninety percent, and then he plays in a game 1667 01:29:13,600 --> 01:29:16,200 Speaker 1: and it slides back down to seventy five and he's 1668 01:29:16,200 --> 01:29:17,800 Speaker 1: got to work all that week to get it back 1669 01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:20,240 Speaker 1: up to ninety percent, and he plays and the same 1670 01:29:20,320 --> 01:29:24,160 Speaker 1: thing happened. So maybe in the bye week that's the 1671 01:29:24,280 --> 01:29:26,400 Speaker 1: time that he needs. But sitting him down right now, 1672 01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:28,280 Speaker 1: I don't think this defense can afford to pull him 1673 01:29:28,280 --> 01:29:30,120 Speaker 1: out of the lineup to let his shoulder heel. I 1674 01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:33,360 Speaker 1: think they'd rather take a eighty to ninety percent Tremaine 1675 01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:35,560 Speaker 1: Edmonds than no Tremaine Edmonds. We saw what happened in 1676 01:29:35,680 --> 01:29:37,760 Speaker 1: Miami when he was out of the lineup. I mean 1677 01:29:37,800 --> 01:29:40,800 Speaker 1: it was Milano two, granted, but they were going up 1678 01:29:40,840 --> 01:29:43,040 Speaker 1: and down the field on them. Yeah, even more than 1679 01:29:43,800 --> 01:29:48,200 Speaker 1: maybe last week. So yeah, it's there's no good answer here. 1680 01:29:48,760 --> 01:29:51,680 Speaker 1: And he and guys like Tremaine. Tremaine wants to play right. 1681 01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:53,840 Speaker 1: He doesn't want to sit out. He doesn't want to 1682 01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:57,280 Speaker 1: leave this team behind. But he's got something he's gonna 1683 01:29:57,320 --> 01:29:58,960 Speaker 1: have to deal with now. I've also noticed too then 1684 01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:02,679 Speaker 1: the last game, in this this last game, and maybe 1685 01:30:02,800 --> 01:30:04,960 Speaker 1: even in the tense game, he's not wearing that brace. 1686 01:30:07,360 --> 01:30:10,759 Speaker 1: That tells me it's getting better as well. Yeah, from Joshua, 1687 01:30:10,960 --> 01:30:12,880 Speaker 1: I saw an article the other day and it said 1688 01:30:12,920 --> 01:30:16,120 Speaker 1: that Clay Matthews was a potential free agent pickup. Whether 1689 01:30:16,240 --> 01:30:18,720 Speaker 1: this is true or not, I had a thought if 1690 01:30:18,800 --> 01:30:20,800 Speaker 1: the Bills did sign him, what do you think of 1691 01:30:20,880 --> 01:30:24,560 Speaker 1: him lining up opposite Jerry Hughes instead of a linebackers 1692 01:30:24,600 --> 01:30:27,400 Speaker 1: so basically a defensive end position. They could probably have 1693 01:30:27,479 --> 01:30:29,280 Speaker 1: to line him up in like a wide nine too. 1694 01:30:30,040 --> 01:30:32,160 Speaker 1: He's gonna get eaten up by an offensive tak Yeah, 1695 01:30:32,160 --> 01:30:33,439 Speaker 1: I mean he's a he's a good and he's an 1696 01:30:33,479 --> 01:30:35,840 Speaker 1: effective pass rusher from the linebacker position, at least he 1697 01:30:35,880 --> 01:30:37,280 Speaker 1: was early in his career. I don't know what he's 1698 01:30:37,280 --> 01:30:40,720 Speaker 1: got left in the tank. I really don't. He has 1699 01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:43,160 Speaker 1: said that he's kind of not interested in signing this year. 1700 01:30:43,240 --> 01:30:45,040 Speaker 1: He thinks it's all going to be muddled in this whole. 1701 01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:47,680 Speaker 1: You know what, I'm taking a year off. He may 1702 01:30:47,800 --> 01:30:49,360 Speaker 1: have a lot left in the tank for a team 1703 01:30:49,400 --> 01:30:52,360 Speaker 1: that gets him and uses him the proper way. But 1704 01:30:52,520 --> 01:30:54,760 Speaker 1: I don't know that that would be an issue, an 1705 01:30:54,840 --> 01:30:57,960 Speaker 1: answer to any of Bill's fans prayers to have Clay 1706 01:30:58,040 --> 01:30:59,960 Speaker 1: Matthew here now. I like the guy. I think he's 1707 01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:03,120 Speaker 1: been a phenomenal player and maybe he's got something left 1708 01:31:03,280 --> 01:31:06,240 Speaker 1: on him. I haven't watched him play. I haven't seen him. 1709 01:31:06,479 --> 01:31:08,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's in shape, that kind of thing. 1710 01:31:08,840 --> 01:31:11,400 Speaker 1: But with the Rams last year, but if you get 1711 01:31:11,520 --> 01:31:15,400 Speaker 1: Clay Matthews at his best, you got teams lining up 1712 01:31:15,439 --> 01:31:18,479 Speaker 1: to sign him, no question about it. And we should 1713 01:31:18,479 --> 01:31:20,120 Speaker 1: also mention that the Bills don't have a lot of 1714 01:31:20,160 --> 01:31:22,240 Speaker 1: room under the cap right now. They're down to about 1715 01:31:22,280 --> 01:31:26,599 Speaker 1: three to six after the Quentin Spain release, which took 1716 01:31:26,800 --> 01:31:28,560 Speaker 1: gave them a cap hit, So now they're down to 1717 01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:32,280 Speaker 1: about three point six in cap space, so they're not 1718 01:31:32,320 --> 01:31:34,400 Speaker 1: gonna be able to go out and swing big on 1719 01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:37,160 Speaker 1: a player that's out. Well, they had they had the 1720 01:31:37,240 --> 01:31:39,680 Speaker 1: cap hit for Spain anyway, Now they just don't have 1721 01:31:39,760 --> 01:31:42,960 Speaker 1: the player either. Yeah, well he just signed a three 1722 01:31:43,040 --> 01:31:45,840 Speaker 1: year deal, so some of that money accelerated into this 1723 01:31:45,960 --> 01:31:49,400 Speaker 1: year's cap, all the bonus money and such from Zach. 1724 01:31:49,720 --> 01:31:53,120 Speaker 1: With the injuries at hand, will White and John Brown 1725 01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:55,960 Speaker 1: be likely to play or will they sit? And this 1726 01:31:56,120 --> 01:31:58,400 Speaker 1: is something we were talking about earlier, Steve. When you're 1727 01:31:58,439 --> 01:32:02,439 Speaker 1: playing a winless team like the Jets, a roster, that is, 1728 01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:07,160 Speaker 1: when your roster is vastly superior to theirs, do you 1729 01:32:07,320 --> 01:32:09,559 Speaker 1: take a week and say, you know what, guys, let's 1730 01:32:09,600 --> 01:32:11,720 Speaker 1: just not try to gut out this week. First of all, 1731 01:32:13,240 --> 01:32:16,120 Speaker 1: I don't know about I think we can safely say 1732 01:32:16,240 --> 01:32:18,840 Speaker 1: that it's very unlikely that Josh Norman plays. You can't 1733 01:32:18,880 --> 01:32:22,680 Speaker 1: play cornerback with a hamstring injury effectively, There's just no 1734 01:32:22,800 --> 01:32:24,320 Speaker 1: way to do it. I don't know how you play 1735 01:32:24,400 --> 01:32:27,479 Speaker 1: that position with a hamstring. You just can't explode. It's 1736 01:32:28,120 --> 01:32:30,439 Speaker 1: it's gonna be an issue. And that's what happens too. 1737 01:32:30,479 --> 01:32:32,360 Speaker 1: And I kind of talked about this in the offseason. 1738 01:32:32,439 --> 01:32:35,000 Speaker 1: One downside designing Josh Norman because there was no downside 1739 01:32:35,080 --> 01:32:38,680 Speaker 1: for the Bills except for the fact that he's been 1740 01:32:38,760 --> 01:32:41,080 Speaker 1: a league a long time, he's an older player, and 1741 01:32:41,200 --> 01:32:44,479 Speaker 1: those guys have had a hard time staying healthy, particularly 1742 01:32:44,479 --> 01:32:48,519 Speaker 1: at that particularly at that spot. So I think he's 1743 01:32:48,560 --> 01:32:53,200 Speaker 1: gonna drag this around all season. The question is Tredavious White, 1744 01:32:53,520 --> 01:32:56,519 Speaker 1: how fast Levi Levi Wallace can get back on the field, 1745 01:32:56,760 --> 01:32:59,240 Speaker 1: how fast Cam Lewis can get his wrist healed up, 1746 01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:02,280 Speaker 1: and Tarren Johnson regained the form that we've seen him 1747 01:33:02,280 --> 01:33:03,800 Speaker 1: play with in the past, and they just get some 1748 01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:05,840 Speaker 1: guys there that know the system, have been around this 1749 01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:08,599 Speaker 1: team for a minute, to get in there and at 1750 01:33:08,680 --> 01:33:11,960 Speaker 1: least do the right thing and line up correctly, because 1751 01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:14,479 Speaker 1: the guys are going to play with Mike or you know, 1752 01:33:15,080 --> 01:33:17,360 Speaker 1: on the outside chance that they go without Tradavious White, 1753 01:33:17,439 --> 01:33:21,960 Speaker 1: without Josh Norman, that's no guarantee. And offensively, you might 1754 01:33:22,040 --> 01:33:23,960 Speaker 1: just want to sit John Brown for this week, especially 1755 01:33:23,960 --> 01:33:26,439 Speaker 1: after watching him hobble around last week around the field, 1756 01:33:26,880 --> 01:33:29,800 Speaker 1: acting almost as a decoy in the passing game. I mean, 1757 01:33:29,840 --> 01:33:31,800 Speaker 1: it was clear that his knee injury was not one 1758 01:33:31,880 --> 01:33:33,800 Speaker 1: hundred percent healed and he was just gutting it out 1759 01:33:33,840 --> 01:33:38,120 Speaker 1: out there. Do you sit him down this week for 1760 01:33:38,200 --> 01:33:40,920 Speaker 1: the sake of having him all the healthier for Patriots week, 1761 01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:44,040 Speaker 1: which I think most would agree is a more challenging 1762 01:33:44,160 --> 01:33:46,439 Speaker 1: game than the one that they have this week. I 1763 01:33:46,520 --> 01:33:49,559 Speaker 1: think you can survive this week offensively without John Brown. 1764 01:33:50,320 --> 01:33:52,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if you can next week, not against 1765 01:33:52,200 --> 01:33:56,040 Speaker 1: that defense whose strength is in their secondary. I'm with it. 1766 01:33:56,600 --> 01:34:00,280 Speaker 1: I think the smart thing that Sean McDermott does random 1767 01:34:00,320 --> 01:34:02,040 Speaker 1: being in this coaching staff and this culture they've made 1768 01:34:02,040 --> 01:34:05,479 Speaker 1: as they stick to the process. Are you ready, then 1769 01:34:05,520 --> 01:34:08,519 Speaker 1: you go. If you're not, you don't. And it's that 1770 01:34:08,680 --> 01:34:11,000 Speaker 1: and it's there's a certain drop dead moment in the 1771 01:34:11,200 --> 01:34:14,960 Speaker 1: late in the week, and that is for every different player, 1772 01:34:15,040 --> 01:34:17,760 Speaker 1: whatever that different threshold is, and they go from there. 1773 01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:19,439 Speaker 1: If you're ready, you play. If you're not, you don't. 1774 01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:22,400 Speaker 1: This coaching staff feels like they owe it to the 1775 01:34:22,439 --> 01:34:24,360 Speaker 1: rest of the team. If you're the better guy, they 1776 01:34:24,439 --> 01:34:25,840 Speaker 1: got to get you on the field because they got 1777 01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:27,840 Speaker 1: the rest of the team they're considering as well. It's 1778 01:34:27,880 --> 01:34:31,680 Speaker 1: not just about you. So if you're that line is 1779 01:34:31,920 --> 01:34:34,519 Speaker 1: usually on the side of caution, like we've said, But 1780 01:34:34,680 --> 01:34:37,160 Speaker 1: once you're once you're up and you're ready, you're in 1781 01:34:37,200 --> 01:34:39,160 Speaker 1: the game if you're If If that's the case, so 1782 01:34:39,479 --> 01:34:42,240 Speaker 1: I think they won't need to deviate from what they've 1783 01:34:42,280 --> 01:34:44,280 Speaker 1: been doing all along. So if these guys are ready, 1784 01:34:44,280 --> 01:34:46,519 Speaker 1: you can bet they'll be playing. All right, we have 1785 01:34:46,600 --> 01:34:48,880 Speaker 1: to take a break.

That is your 1832 01:37:24,840 --> 01:37:28,760 Speaker 1: sports update here from one Bill's Drive, and we press 1833 01:37:28,840 --> 01:37:33,000 Speaker 1: forward into our number three here and Steve, we did 1834 01:37:33,120 --> 01:37:37,839 Speaker 1: have a couple of comments from the players with respect 1835 01:37:38,360 --> 01:37:43,479 Speaker 1: to Sunday's game and the challenge of facing a winless team, 1836 01:37:43,760 --> 01:37:45,479 Speaker 1: which you know you always here all the time. Oh, 1837 01:37:45,600 --> 01:37:48,680 Speaker 1: you know those winless teams, they're really dangerous because you 1838 01:37:48,720 --> 01:37:52,960 Speaker 1: don't want to be embarrassed. So Josh Allen was asked 1839 01:37:53,960 --> 01:37:58,080 Speaker 1: that very question about taking the Jets lightly. Here's what 1840 01:37:58,200 --> 01:38:01,680 Speaker 1: he had to say about that. It's hard to win 1841 01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:05,200 Speaker 1: this league. We understand that. Um, you know, we got 1842 01:38:05,320 --> 01:38:06,640 Speaker 1: to go in there, put our best foot forward. We 1843 01:38:06,680 --> 01:38:09,280 Speaker 1: got to execute the game plan. Um, you know, it 1844 01:38:09,640 --> 01:38:12,960 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if the team's undefeated, their own five or 1845 01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:15,240 Speaker 1: whatever the case may be. Any given Sunday, you know, 1846 01:38:15,360 --> 01:38:17,040 Speaker 1: things can't happen. So we got to stay on top 1847 01:38:17,080 --> 01:38:19,240 Speaker 1: of our game and make sure we're actually getting the 1848 01:38:19,280 --> 01:38:21,680 Speaker 1: game plan. And you know, they've seen us once and um, 1849 01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:24,000 Speaker 1: you know I know this since you know, going back 1850 01:38:24,040 --> 01:38:26,240 Speaker 1: to pee wee football, it's hard to beat teams twice, 1851 01:38:26,439 --> 01:38:28,960 Speaker 1: you know, after they've seen you before. So we got 1852 01:38:29,080 --> 01:38:31,400 Speaker 1: to understand that, and we gotta take some of their 1853 01:38:31,479 --> 01:38:33,960 Speaker 1: their punches early, and we got to you know, bounce 1854 01:38:34,040 --> 01:38:36,519 Speaker 1: back and you know, throw some of ourselves. So, um, 1855 01:38:37,040 --> 01:38:38,800 Speaker 1: again it's It's one of those games where it's just 1856 01:38:38,960 --> 01:38:40,600 Speaker 1: it's a division game. They're tough to win, and we 1857 01:38:40,680 --> 01:38:43,960 Speaker 1: got to be ready for it. It's a division game. 1858 01:38:44,120 --> 01:38:46,320 Speaker 1: I think that I don't know why, Steve, but there's 1859 01:38:46,320 --> 01:38:47,840 Speaker 1: a part of me that thinks this game is gonna 1860 01:38:47,840 --> 01:38:50,200 Speaker 1: be a little bit closer than people think. I do too. 1861 01:38:51,640 --> 01:38:53,240 Speaker 1: GEDs will show up, They're gonna be at home. It'll 1862 01:38:53,240 --> 01:38:56,960 Speaker 1: be a little more comfortable for them, and you know, 1863 01:38:57,040 --> 01:38:59,760 Speaker 1: they they made that one close to Lashka. I think 1864 01:38:59,800 --> 01:39:00,920 Speaker 1: this is going to be a little bit of a 1865 01:39:01,360 --> 01:39:03,479 Speaker 1: one of those games where the Bills it seems like 1866 01:39:03,560 --> 01:39:05,920 Speaker 1: it's in control, but the scoreboard doesn't show that it's 1867 01:39:05,920 --> 01:39:10,040 Speaker 1: in control. And the Jets will have a winning a 1868 01:39:10,160 --> 01:39:11,760 Speaker 1: chance to win it as long as they can keep 1869 01:39:11,800 --> 01:39:16,040 Speaker 1: it close. Uh. You know, maybe the Bills will be 1870 01:39:16,080 --> 01:39:17,640 Speaker 1: able to put it away. But I do think and 1871 01:39:17,680 --> 01:39:19,160 Speaker 1: I can I can say this right now for those 1872 01:39:19,160 --> 01:39:21,000 Speaker 1: people who listen to the broadcast with me and Murph 1873 01:39:21,120 --> 01:39:23,000 Speaker 1: on the game day, I can tell you one of 1874 01:39:23,080 --> 01:39:25,760 Speaker 1: my keys right now. You gotta get off to a 1875 01:39:25,840 --> 01:39:27,600 Speaker 1: fast start against these guys. If you get off to 1876 01:39:27,640 --> 01:39:31,639 Speaker 1: a fast start, it will crush them. That is hard 1877 01:39:31,640 --> 01:39:33,400 Speaker 1: to bounce back and they is here we go again. 1878 01:39:33,560 --> 01:39:35,800 Speaker 1: All of that, all the old cliches are gonna pop out. 1879 01:39:36,280 --> 01:39:38,479 Speaker 1: If you can jump out, go down and score on 1880 01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:41,080 Speaker 1: the first drive of the game and put it away 1881 01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:43,800 Speaker 1: and then answer it with another one real quick, well yeah, 1882 01:39:43,880 --> 01:39:45,719 Speaker 1: that'll be That'll be about it for the Think about 1883 01:39:45,760 --> 01:39:48,240 Speaker 1: how critical rhythm has been for this offense at the 1884 01:39:48,320 --> 01:39:51,280 Speaker 1: outset of the game. If they you know, first possession, 1885 01:39:51,320 --> 01:39:53,280 Speaker 1: they march down the field and put points on the board. 1886 01:39:53,400 --> 01:39:56,080 Speaker 1: Everything else seems to flow from there, and they seem 1887 01:39:56,120 --> 01:39:58,360 Speaker 1: to be in that rhythm for most of the game. 1888 01:39:58,400 --> 01:40:03,040 Speaker 1: There are we have seen lulls of play from this offense. 1889 01:40:03,400 --> 01:40:05,360 Speaker 1: Even through the first two weeks. We saw those third 1890 01:40:05,479 --> 01:40:07,920 Speaker 1: quarter lulls, the duldrums, if you will. Coming out of 1891 01:40:07,920 --> 01:40:10,360 Speaker 1: the locker room. Everything was humming along in the first half. 1892 01:40:10,400 --> 01:40:12,559 Speaker 1: They've staked themselves to some kind of lead, and they 1893 01:40:12,640 --> 01:40:14,479 Speaker 1: come out in the third quarter, you know, and they 1894 01:40:14,560 --> 01:40:18,320 Speaker 1: can't stay on track enough to sustain a drive and 1895 01:40:18,360 --> 01:40:20,920 Speaker 1: get into scoring territory, and the other team kind of 1896 01:40:21,000 --> 01:40:22,600 Speaker 1: chips away at the bills lead a little bit, and 1897 01:40:22,600 --> 01:40:24,000 Speaker 1: then they would turn it on in the fourth quarter. 1898 01:40:24,040 --> 01:40:25,880 Speaker 1: That's kind of how the first month of the season went. 1899 01:40:26,680 --> 01:40:29,439 Speaker 1: These last couple of games get off to bad starts 1900 01:40:30,240 --> 01:40:33,160 Speaker 1: and they can't find their rhythm. So I think a 1901 01:40:33,280 --> 01:40:36,280 Speaker 1: fast start is more important, not just to discourage the Jets, 1902 01:40:36,720 --> 01:40:38,600 Speaker 1: but they get this offense back in a rhythm that 1903 01:40:39,160 --> 01:40:41,360 Speaker 1: they haven't seen a better part of three weeks now, 1904 01:40:41,479 --> 01:40:47,160 Speaker 1: so it's twofold your fast start point. Stefon Diggs is 1905 01:40:47,360 --> 01:40:50,200 Speaker 1: a believer that you learn more from losses than you 1906 01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:53,240 Speaker 1: do from wins. So here are some of the lessons 1907 01:40:53,320 --> 01:40:55,479 Speaker 1: he feels they need to take away from these last 1908 01:40:55,520 --> 01:41:00,400 Speaker 1: two games. Play some good teams throughout this year. Uh, 1909 01:41:00,760 --> 01:41:01,920 Speaker 1: you know, it's not the end of the world. A 1910 01:41:01,960 --> 01:41:03,479 Speaker 1: lot of people wanted to be the end of the world, 1911 01:41:03,560 --> 01:41:06,400 Speaker 1: but we're sitting at forward too. A lot to learn 1912 01:41:06,479 --> 01:41:08,080 Speaker 1: from these past two games, and I think it will 1913 01:41:08,080 --> 01:41:10,479 Speaker 1: help us in the long run, especially in November December 1914 01:41:10,520 --> 01:41:13,160 Speaker 1: when you're playing football, and that was later on. It's 1915 01:41:13,200 --> 01:41:15,280 Speaker 1: a different climbing and XYZ. But feel like we can 1916 01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:16,920 Speaker 1: learn a lot from those past two larges because you 1917 01:41:17,040 --> 01:41:18,720 Speaker 1: I feel like you learn more. You learn more from 1918 01:41:18,760 --> 01:41:20,320 Speaker 1: losing than you do win it. So you're trying to 1919 01:41:20,360 --> 01:41:22,559 Speaker 1: learn it from it, grow from it, try to learn 1920 01:41:22,680 --> 01:41:25,320 Speaker 1: from it and grow from it. I love when he 1921 01:41:25,360 --> 01:41:28,320 Speaker 1: said later in the season, when you're dealing with different 1922 01:41:28,360 --> 01:41:31,760 Speaker 1: weather and x y Z, somebody should have followed up 1923 01:41:31,760 --> 01:41:34,080 Speaker 1: and asked him what x y Z was. I'd like 1924 01:41:34,160 --> 01:41:37,960 Speaker 1: to know, you know how it is injuries, right, you know, 1925 01:41:38,320 --> 01:41:40,479 Speaker 1: maybe he doesn't want to say that to Jinks the team, right, 1926 01:41:41,160 --> 01:41:44,240 Speaker 1: what if? I don't know, but it's He's right. You 1927 01:41:44,320 --> 01:41:46,960 Speaker 1: do learn a lot from your your losses because you 1928 01:41:47,120 --> 01:41:50,639 Speaker 1: have regrets about those. Uh, when you see the same 1929 01:41:51,560 --> 01:41:54,720 Speaker 1: lessons taught to you when you win anyway, it's like 1930 01:41:55,320 --> 01:41:58,080 Speaker 1: we got it, you know. It's that It's that it's 1931 01:41:58,160 --> 01:42:01,240 Speaker 1: that easy. And they had two they took it on 1932 01:42:01,280 --> 01:42:03,560 Speaker 1: the chin from two really good football teams. And I 1933 01:42:03,680 --> 01:42:07,280 Speaker 1: think as this season progresses, they're gonna look back on 1934 01:42:07,439 --> 01:42:12,560 Speaker 1: those and the Tennessee game I just can't I just 1935 01:42:12,720 --> 01:42:15,240 Speaker 1: can't even talk about. But the Chiefs game they're gonna 1936 01:42:15,280 --> 01:42:16,439 Speaker 1: look back on and say, you know what, that was 1937 01:42:16,479 --> 01:42:18,120 Speaker 1: a good game for us to get right. Then we 1938 01:42:18,880 --> 01:42:20,640 Speaker 1: learned a couple of things from that that we've got 1939 01:42:20,720 --> 01:42:23,000 Speaker 1: to do better. This is the coaching staff too, that's 1940 01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:25,120 Speaker 1: not gonna let up on them, and it's gonna and 1941 01:42:25,200 --> 01:42:28,640 Speaker 1: they're making it evident that the expectations don't change just 1942 01:42:28,760 --> 01:42:33,280 Speaker 1: because they can't change players. So this team's going to 1943 01:42:33,360 --> 01:42:35,479 Speaker 1: develop as this season rolls along, and I'm excited to 1944 01:42:35,560 --> 01:42:44,080 Speaker 1: see how that transforms and transpires. Yeah, I want to 1945 01:42:44,080 --> 01:42:46,200 Speaker 1: see where it goes here. I want to see if 1946 01:42:46,280 --> 01:42:50,639 Speaker 1: this they can just rip off a convincing win off 1947 01:42:50,720 --> 01:42:54,160 Speaker 1: this team. So I don't know if they'll get that, 1948 01:42:54,240 --> 01:42:57,680 Speaker 1: because again, I think it's gonna be closer than people anticipate. 1949 01:42:57,720 --> 01:42:59,400 Speaker 1: I think people look at the windless Jets and say, oh, 1950 01:42:59,439 --> 01:43:01,720 Speaker 1: they're gonna wipe the floor with these guys, but it 1951 01:43:01,840 --> 01:43:03,679 Speaker 1: never seems to be that way with this Jets team 1952 01:43:03,960 --> 01:43:06,320 Speaker 1: since play them. Yeah, they're always division games are always 1953 01:43:06,320 --> 01:43:08,800 Speaker 1: closer than what you think they should be, and when 1954 01:43:08,840 --> 01:43:11,639 Speaker 1: they when they're in a blowout, it's kind of unexpected. Anyway, 1955 01:43:12,240 --> 01:43:14,920 Speaker 1: I think this is still a good This is still 1956 01:43:14,960 --> 01:43:16,800 Speaker 1: the same Bills team those four and oh, and their 1957 01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:18,519 Speaker 1: offense is still there and they still got a big 1958 01:43:18,600 --> 01:43:22,120 Speaker 1: engine under the hood. I think for this kind of stuff, 1959 01:43:22,160 --> 01:43:25,840 Speaker 1: I think this is a game where I don't I 1960 01:43:25,960 --> 01:43:29,439 Speaker 1: just I just think the Bills are going to show 1961 01:43:29,600 --> 01:43:32,200 Speaker 1: that they're a good football team again. I just don't 1962 01:43:32,240 --> 01:43:34,519 Speaker 1: think that's gone anywhere, you know what I mean? Oh, 1963 01:43:34,560 --> 01:43:38,040 Speaker 1: I know. I just don't think these last two losses 1964 01:43:38,640 --> 01:43:41,000 Speaker 1: define what and who this team is. Certainly they've got 1965 01:43:41,080 --> 01:43:44,840 Speaker 1: some warts. We've seen that and acknowledge that. But I'm 1966 01:43:44,840 --> 01:43:48,120 Speaker 1: telling you that's this is a good football team, hard 1967 01:43:48,160 --> 01:43:50,120 Speaker 1: to beat, and the Jets are gonna put have to 1968 01:43:50,160 --> 01:43:54,080 Speaker 1: put forth more than their best effort this year to 1969 01:43:54,200 --> 01:43:56,680 Speaker 1: beat them. All right. We were having trouble getting in 1970 01:43:56,760 --> 01:43:59,320 Speaker 1: touch with them earlier, but we are already now for 1971 01:43:59,400 --> 01:44:15,519 Speaker 1: the lowdown. We bring in Lorenzo Alexander, who is on 1972 01:44:15,680 --> 01:44:17,880 Speaker 1: the line with us, and I don't know, We've we've 1973 01:44:17,880 --> 01:44:19,760 Speaker 1: got to get like a private line or a chat 1974 01:44:19,880 --> 01:44:22,679 Speaker 1: line or something. This guy's working the phones all the time. 1975 01:44:23,120 --> 01:44:25,360 Speaker 1: He's he's too busy for us, man, I tell you 1976 01:44:25,600 --> 01:44:27,360 Speaker 1: how to get the thoughts down to what. Well, I'm 1977 01:44:27,400 --> 01:44:29,640 Speaker 1: not too busy, even though you know I always make 1978 01:44:29,720 --> 01:44:31,400 Speaker 1: time for you guys. And they're still haven't paid me. 1979 01:44:31,600 --> 01:44:34,320 Speaker 1: But it's all good. We ain't gonna talk about that. Where. Yeah, 1980 01:44:34,520 --> 01:44:38,080 Speaker 1: what's Christy? What's up? Brother? I don't I don't handle 1981 01:44:38,080 --> 01:44:41,800 Speaker 1: accounts payable, so don't look at me though. Um, but yeah, 1982 01:44:41,920 --> 01:44:44,360 Speaker 1: I mean, you look at this game and I think 1983 01:44:44,360 --> 01:44:46,920 Speaker 1: a lot of fans are like ho humming it because 1984 01:44:46,920 --> 01:44:49,679 Speaker 1: they know the Jets are winless. Clearly the Bills aren't, 1985 01:44:49,800 --> 01:44:53,400 Speaker 1: especially after they're smarting from two straight losses. Um. I 1986 01:44:53,439 --> 01:44:55,400 Speaker 1: don't know if you heard the Stefan Digg's comment, we 1987 01:44:55,520 --> 01:44:57,920 Speaker 1: just played before you came on, but he's in the 1988 01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:00,519 Speaker 1: opinion that you win, you learn more from your losses 1989 01:45:00,560 --> 01:45:03,400 Speaker 1: than you do from your wins, and he feels that 1990 01:45:03,479 --> 01:45:05,599 Speaker 1: they'll be on the straight and narrow this week. How 1991 01:45:05,680 --> 01:45:08,280 Speaker 1: much does it help to help the players focus in 1992 01:45:08,400 --> 01:45:11,560 Speaker 1: practice coming off a loss the week leading up to 1993 01:45:11,640 --> 01:45:13,120 Speaker 1: a game that you know you want to get back 1994 01:45:13,200 --> 01:45:16,800 Speaker 1: on track, I mean a significant focus. And I think 1995 01:45:16,840 --> 01:45:20,280 Speaker 1: Stephan is right. I think people normally pay closer to 1996 01:45:20,320 --> 01:45:23,599 Speaker 1: the details when you lose, because nobody likes losing. There's 1997 01:45:23,720 --> 01:45:26,679 Speaker 1: an easy tendency, and this is just for people in general. 1998 01:45:26,760 --> 01:45:29,320 Speaker 1: When you have success, when you're doing well, when things 1999 01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:31,160 Speaker 1: are going well, you kind of let your guard down 2000 01:45:31,160 --> 01:45:33,400 Speaker 1: a little bit. And those are some of the things 2001 01:45:33,439 --> 01:45:35,200 Speaker 1: that I know Sean and some of the leaders in 2002 01:45:35,240 --> 01:45:40,160 Speaker 1: that locker room always try to fight against. Is not 2003 01:45:40,280 --> 01:45:43,639 Speaker 1: getting to placent, you know, let's also learn when we win. 2004 01:45:43,760 --> 01:45:46,640 Speaker 1: That's a much funner process because even those games that 2005 01:45:46,680 --> 01:45:49,320 Speaker 1: you win, there's still like some boards that Steve mentioned 2006 01:45:50,120 --> 01:45:51,840 Speaker 1: that you have to fix and shure up. We want 2007 01:45:51,880 --> 01:45:53,680 Speaker 1: to continue to get better week in and week out, 2008 01:45:54,080 --> 01:45:55,960 Speaker 1: so by the time that you are getting ready to 2009 01:45:56,000 --> 01:46:00,760 Speaker 1: play playoff football late November, early December and going to January, 2010 01:46:01,160 --> 01:46:02,760 Speaker 1: that you have cleaned up a lot of those things. 2011 01:46:02,800 --> 01:46:05,400 Speaker 1: Because obviously the states get higher, the teams you're going 2012 01:46:05,439 --> 01:46:07,599 Speaker 1: to start to play as hopefully as you make the playoffs, 2013 01:46:07,600 --> 01:46:09,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna get obviously significantly better. And you want to 2014 01:46:09,920 --> 01:46:11,439 Speaker 1: make sure you've worked out in your game and so 2015 01:46:12,400 --> 01:46:14,840 Speaker 1: guys need to continue where they win or lose. But 2016 01:46:14,880 --> 01:46:17,200 Speaker 1: it's always better to do that when you win games 2017 01:46:17,280 --> 01:46:19,240 Speaker 1: versus losing, even though you're gonna be more locked in 2018 01:46:19,280 --> 01:46:20,760 Speaker 1: because you're trying to get that taste out of your mouth. 2019 01:46:20,920 --> 01:46:22,840 Speaker 1: What did you think about the Bill's game plan against 2020 01:46:22,840 --> 01:46:24,559 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. It seemed as though they wanted to keep 2021 01:46:24,600 --> 01:46:26,760 Speaker 1: everything in front of them. They didn't mind giving them 2022 01:46:26,800 --> 01:46:29,320 Speaker 1: coverage in the run game, but they really you know what, 2023 01:46:29,439 --> 01:46:31,600 Speaker 1: the only thing they struggled to do was make a 2024 01:46:31,640 --> 01:46:33,680 Speaker 1: play on third down. They couldn't get them off the 2025 01:46:33,760 --> 01:46:38,320 Speaker 1: field enough to give their offense enough opportunities to score. Yeah, 2026 01:46:38,320 --> 01:46:40,559 Speaker 1: I would agree with you in that sentiment. Obviously didn't 2027 01:46:40,560 --> 01:46:43,000 Speaker 1: give them any big chuck plays. Obviously, trying to stop 2028 01:46:43,080 --> 01:46:45,160 Speaker 1: Tyreeek in that past game with Patrick Mahomes or what 2029 01:46:45,160 --> 01:46:47,200 Speaker 1: they're able to do and giving up the two and 2030 01:46:47,240 --> 01:46:50,519 Speaker 1: a fifty yards is always unacceptable. And even with that 2031 01:46:50,800 --> 01:46:53,519 Speaker 1: type of they still had an opportunity to get off 2032 01:46:53,520 --> 01:46:56,679 Speaker 1: the field. And they have to win situational football. There's 2033 01:46:56,720 --> 01:46:59,720 Speaker 1: a lot of defenses and teams. Sometimes they get up 2034 01:46:59,720 --> 01:47:01,800 Speaker 1: a lot of yards. But if you can create turnovers 2035 01:47:02,200 --> 01:47:04,599 Speaker 1: or you can win in situation of football that's third down, 2036 01:47:04,720 --> 01:47:07,360 Speaker 1: red zone, you can mitigate giving up some of them 2037 01:47:07,479 --> 01:47:10,519 Speaker 1: yardage because you win in the significant parts of the game, 2038 01:47:10,560 --> 01:47:13,240 Speaker 1: and that's what you always look to. And they didn't 2039 01:47:13,280 --> 01:47:15,920 Speaker 1: do it. And obviously the vital situations, especially on that 2040 01:47:16,040 --> 01:47:18,880 Speaker 1: last drive when they had them kind of corner there 2041 01:47:18,960 --> 01:47:21,000 Speaker 1: and then Patrick Mahomes makes a great playing figures out 2042 01:47:21,040 --> 01:47:23,200 Speaker 1: the way to get a first down. So they have 2043 01:47:23,320 --> 01:47:25,920 Speaker 1: to correct those things. Even in the run game, even 2044 01:47:25,960 --> 01:47:28,120 Speaker 1: though they were stopping a big play, they still had 2045 01:47:28,160 --> 01:47:30,479 Speaker 1: people in position or should have had people in the 2046 01:47:30,520 --> 01:47:32,720 Speaker 1: position to stop them or some of those big ones. 2047 01:47:33,160 --> 01:47:34,960 Speaker 1: It was just a guy not in this gap. And 2048 01:47:35,080 --> 01:47:37,040 Speaker 1: it's as simple as that. In this league, when you 2049 01:47:37,120 --> 01:47:39,000 Speaker 1: make the small things, people always want to think it's 2050 01:47:39,000 --> 01:47:41,800 Speaker 1: about who is cool? Scheme, Who I gotta had this 2051 01:47:41,880 --> 01:47:45,400 Speaker 1: athlete that runs four or five you know all those times, Well, 2052 01:47:45,439 --> 01:47:47,640 Speaker 1: I gotta see somebody that's cut up in chisel. No, 2053 01:47:47,840 --> 01:47:50,240 Speaker 1: I want smart, tough football players. They're gonna be where 2054 01:47:50,240 --> 01:47:53,120 Speaker 1: they need to be and not beat yourself because not 2055 01:47:53,200 --> 01:47:54,599 Speaker 1: being where you need to be, it's gonna beat yourself. 2056 01:47:54,640 --> 01:47:57,200 Speaker 1: And that's what we saw at points in that game 2057 01:47:57,320 --> 01:47:59,280 Speaker 1: last week, especial when we talk about a run fits 2058 01:47:59,479 --> 01:48:02,160 Speaker 1: so Lorenzo. That leads me to my next question for you. 2059 01:48:02,479 --> 01:48:06,040 Speaker 1: We talked to Dredavious White this week and he was 2060 01:48:06,200 --> 01:48:10,639 Speaker 1: asked for an identity for this defense, which really doesn't 2061 01:48:10,680 --> 01:48:12,640 Speaker 1: seem to have one right now with some of the 2062 01:48:12,680 --> 01:48:15,600 Speaker 1: struggles that they've had. And his answer I thought was 2063 01:48:15,720 --> 01:48:19,559 Speaker 1: very interesting. He said, well, as a defense, your identity 2064 01:48:19,800 --> 01:48:21,800 Speaker 1: is you're either going to hold people to not a 2065 01:48:21,840 --> 01:48:24,920 Speaker 1: lot of yardage, or you're gonna take the ball away 2066 01:48:25,160 --> 01:48:29,200 Speaker 1: and you know, live off turnovers, or you're gonna be 2067 01:48:29,280 --> 01:48:31,840 Speaker 1: a team that just keeps him completely off the scoreboard. 2068 01:48:32,360 --> 01:48:35,320 Speaker 1: And when asked and with his feet put to the fire, 2069 01:48:35,400 --> 01:48:37,560 Speaker 1: asked what he thinks this year's defense is going to be, 2070 01:48:37,960 --> 01:48:39,800 Speaker 1: he said, I think we got to go with takeaways. 2071 01:48:40,360 --> 01:48:43,519 Speaker 1: So what's your what's your reaction to that. You know, 2072 01:48:43,600 --> 01:48:46,719 Speaker 1: we've seen the yardage this defense is given up at times, 2073 01:48:46,760 --> 01:48:48,840 Speaker 1: and the defense is given up big time points too. 2074 01:48:49,200 --> 01:48:51,200 Speaker 1: He thinks it's a defense that's going to be the 2075 01:48:51,280 --> 01:48:55,519 Speaker 1: best complimentary phase to the offense by being a takeaway unit. 2076 01:48:55,560 --> 01:48:58,000 Speaker 1: Where do you think of that? Um, I know that's 2077 01:48:58,040 --> 01:49:02,400 Speaker 1: one of the points, and that's that's ultimate neutralizer when 2078 01:49:02,439 --> 01:49:03,920 Speaker 1: you are giving up a lot of yards, if you 2079 01:49:03,960 --> 01:49:06,519 Speaker 1: give up a lot of big plays. But you don't 2080 01:49:06,560 --> 01:49:08,360 Speaker 1: want to live and die on that because it's hard 2081 01:49:08,360 --> 01:49:09,800 Speaker 1: to get turnovers in this league. It's hard to get 2082 01:49:09,800 --> 01:49:12,360 Speaker 1: intercept it's hard to force fumbles, even when you're in 2083 01:49:12,400 --> 01:49:15,760 Speaker 1: attentional about it. And so I would like that to 2084 01:49:15,840 --> 01:49:19,519 Speaker 1: be like the icing on the cake and let this 2085 01:49:19,680 --> 01:49:22,120 Speaker 1: team at least, you know, maybe be dominant in the 2086 01:49:22,200 --> 01:49:25,120 Speaker 1: run game or dominant in the past game. But right now, 2087 01:49:25,240 --> 01:49:26,920 Speaker 1: you know, obviously it's kind of a week to week. 2088 01:49:27,400 --> 01:49:29,040 Speaker 1: You know what they've been able to do, especially if 2089 01:49:29,080 --> 01:49:31,040 Speaker 1: you look at last week with Patrick Mahomes. They stopped 2090 01:49:31,040 --> 01:49:32,920 Speaker 1: to run pretty well, but they give up twenty and 2091 01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:35,360 Speaker 1: fifty yards and so they have to figure out something 2092 01:49:36,000 --> 01:49:39,000 Speaker 1: I think more than just turnovers, even though that will help. 2093 01:49:39,040 --> 01:49:40,240 Speaker 1: That will help you. I mean, you can look at 2094 01:49:40,280 --> 01:49:42,800 Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks defense and what they've been able to do. 2095 01:49:42,920 --> 01:49:44,840 Speaker 1: You know, stop on a fourth and one versus Cam 2096 01:49:45,320 --> 01:49:47,400 Speaker 1: coming up with a big play a couple of weeks ago, 2097 01:49:47,840 --> 01:49:49,160 Speaker 1: to figure out how to win the game and get 2098 01:49:49,160 --> 01:49:50,760 Speaker 1: the ball to Russell Wilson when they weren't able to 2099 01:49:50,760 --> 01:49:53,600 Speaker 1: stop the Viicals all game. So you can live by that, 2100 01:49:53,800 --> 01:49:57,599 Speaker 1: but I don't think that's going to create longevity as 2101 01:49:57,680 --> 01:50:00,240 Speaker 1: far as you're winning the game that you want to win. 2102 01:50:00,880 --> 01:50:03,639 Speaker 1: In the playoffs, yeah, regular season, yeah that might be cool. 2103 01:50:03,760 --> 01:50:06,680 Speaker 1: You might find enough wins to get yourselves in a 2104 01:50:06,760 --> 01:50:08,360 Speaker 1: place to make the playoffs. But when you get to 2105 01:50:08,400 --> 01:50:10,599 Speaker 1: the playoffs, you got to have a real true identity 2106 01:50:12,000 --> 01:50:13,400 Speaker 1: is part of that. But you also got to be 2107 01:50:13,479 --> 01:50:16,320 Speaker 1: able to get after the passer. We're gonna stop the run. 2108 01:50:16,400 --> 01:50:17,840 Speaker 1: You gotta be able to take something a way to 2109 01:50:17,920 --> 01:50:21,440 Speaker 1: make teams play one dimensional and then get the turnovers 2110 01:50:21,680 --> 01:50:23,640 Speaker 1: in that process. So the Bills are looking at the 2111 01:50:23,680 --> 01:50:27,599 Speaker 1: New York Jets and they're oh and six, They're they've 2112 01:50:27,840 --> 01:50:32,800 Speaker 1: traded or lost their best some of their best players. Uh, 2113 01:50:33,760 --> 01:50:36,519 Speaker 1: what's the philosophy? What do you anticipate Sean McDermott and 2114 01:50:36,640 --> 01:50:39,120 Speaker 1: the coaching staff and the Bills, what's their philosophy going in? 2115 01:50:39,200 --> 01:50:41,360 Speaker 1: They got nick guys, do they Is this the kind 2116 01:50:41,400 --> 01:50:43,559 Speaker 1: of team where you're gonna rest guys like that, don't 2117 01:50:43,600 --> 01:50:46,080 Speaker 1: push them to play? Or do you did right? Or 2118 01:50:46,160 --> 01:50:49,400 Speaker 1: do you or do you just treat like every other game? Well, 2119 01:50:49,479 --> 01:50:51,240 Speaker 1: you know, you know, you know, you know where I'm 2120 01:50:51,280 --> 01:50:53,840 Speaker 1: coming from, Steve, I'm coming that old school. I don't 2121 01:50:53,840 --> 01:50:56,559 Speaker 1: know about that game management stuff. You need your best 2122 01:50:56,600 --> 01:50:58,360 Speaker 1: players out there. They get rest when you get to 2123 01:50:58,400 --> 01:51:00,439 Speaker 1: the buyer week, or rest during the week and miss 2124 01:51:00,520 --> 01:51:03,280 Speaker 1: Wednesday and Thursday practice and get ready for the game. 2125 01:51:03,360 --> 01:51:05,080 Speaker 1: But you need your balls out there, the guys that 2126 01:51:05,160 --> 01:51:07,599 Speaker 1: you count on every single week to play. So unless 2127 01:51:07,640 --> 01:51:11,040 Speaker 1: it's an injury like a hamstring, that can turn into 2128 01:51:11,080 --> 01:51:12,720 Speaker 1: something different. But it's just like a you know, a 2129 01:51:13,280 --> 01:51:16,120 Speaker 1: twisted ankle or you know, I may gotta thig intusion 2130 01:51:16,280 --> 01:51:18,720 Speaker 1: or something like that. You gotta suit up and play 2131 01:51:18,840 --> 01:51:20,800 Speaker 1: because we need everybody, all hands on deck. And as 2132 01:51:20,840 --> 01:51:22,960 Speaker 1: you look it too earlier before I jumped on, it's 2133 01:51:22,960 --> 01:51:25,479 Speaker 1: a divisional game. You should go out there and chief 2134 01:51:25,520 --> 01:51:28,000 Speaker 1: the Jets like they're owing six. But at the same time, 2135 01:51:28,080 --> 01:51:30,160 Speaker 1: it is a divisional game. And so I think the 2136 01:51:30,280 --> 01:51:33,400 Speaker 1: focus this week when you look at the last two weeks, 2137 01:51:33,920 --> 01:51:36,360 Speaker 1: to me, I'm going back to the basis and fundamentals 2138 01:51:36,600 --> 01:51:40,120 Speaker 1: throwing the ball, blocking, catching, tackling, fitting where you need 2139 01:51:40,200 --> 01:51:42,200 Speaker 1: to be just a very basic type of mindset, like 2140 01:51:42,280 --> 01:51:44,479 Speaker 1: when you come out of training, care and getting back 2141 01:51:44,479 --> 01:51:46,960 Speaker 1: to those things. And I think that's where offensively, the 2142 01:51:47,080 --> 01:51:49,360 Speaker 1: rhythm early in the games is kind of faltered, and 2143 01:51:49,479 --> 01:51:51,360 Speaker 1: if they've struggle to kind of get back on pace 2144 01:51:52,479 --> 01:51:54,919 Speaker 1: versus when they come right out hot, you know, connected 2145 01:51:55,000 --> 01:51:57,120 Speaker 1: hitting some of those deep balls, it's hard to stop 2146 01:51:57,160 --> 01:51:59,479 Speaker 1: that train with Josh Allen and all those weapons. And 2147 01:51:59,520 --> 01:52:03,920 Speaker 1: then it'll be the same thing, Hey, hey, discover Cover 2148 01:52:04,080 --> 01:52:05,880 Speaker 1: three or Cover four. All game. We may have a 2149 01:52:05,920 --> 01:52:07,360 Speaker 1: couple of blitzes, but we just want to fit the 2150 01:52:07,439 --> 01:52:09,320 Speaker 1: run downhill because I don't think you have to do 2151 01:52:09,360 --> 01:52:11,960 Speaker 1: any special to really beat the Jet even though the 2152 01:52:12,120 --> 01:52:13,840 Speaker 1: division opponent, and you may have a you know, a 2153 01:52:13,920 --> 01:52:17,240 Speaker 1: regal kill on third down, but just line up, play fast, 2154 01:52:17,720 --> 01:52:20,040 Speaker 1: get some of that swag back that you need, and 2155 01:52:20,240 --> 01:52:23,000 Speaker 1: carry that on for the rest of the season. All right, Lorenzo, 2156 01:52:23,000 --> 01:52:25,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have you put your coaching hat on here 2157 01:52:25,200 --> 01:52:28,240 Speaker 1: because we're gonna need some answers because the injury report 2158 01:52:28,320 --> 01:52:30,880 Speaker 1: just came out while you were talking. And right now, 2159 01:52:31,600 --> 01:52:35,160 Speaker 1: John Brown is out, Tyrrell Dotson, Cody Ford, Dawson Knox, 2160 01:52:35,240 --> 01:52:38,280 Speaker 1: and Josh Norman and then Cam Lewis and Tradevious White 2161 01:52:38,320 --> 01:52:43,920 Speaker 1: are questionable. Levi Wallace is still on IR so you 2162 01:52:44,080 --> 01:52:47,160 Speaker 1: and if cam Lewis can even play, he's essentially playing 2163 01:52:47,200 --> 01:52:49,240 Speaker 1: with a club with his wrist injury. I don't think 2164 01:52:49,320 --> 01:52:52,840 Speaker 1: he's playing corner. He's probably playing only special teams. So 2165 01:52:53,360 --> 01:52:56,639 Speaker 1: with this in mind, seeing how shorthanded you are at corner, 2166 01:52:57,560 --> 01:53:01,040 Speaker 1: what are you playing defensively here for the majority of 2167 01:53:01,080 --> 01:53:02,599 Speaker 1: the game. I mean, they're gonna have to call Dame 2168 01:53:02,720 --> 01:53:07,840 Speaker 1: Jackson from the practice squad, But what are we doing here, coach? Hey, Well, 2169 01:53:07,880 --> 01:53:10,200 Speaker 1: maybe they did they do activate somebody out exactly know 2170 01:53:10,240 --> 01:53:12,320 Speaker 1: who's on the practice squad. But just in the Cam 2171 01:53:12,439 --> 01:53:15,320 Speaker 1: Lewis situation, Hey, we all got to play with the 2172 01:53:15,400 --> 01:53:18,040 Speaker 1: first and strange. You know, whether it's a need brave 2173 01:53:18,280 --> 01:53:21,040 Speaker 1: take something club on your hand. I see d Lineman 2174 01:53:21,160 --> 01:53:23,800 Speaker 1: do it. I've seen linebackers do what dbs have done 2175 01:53:23,800 --> 01:53:25,479 Speaker 1: it before. But as the guy out here in Arizona, 2176 01:53:25,520 --> 01:53:27,760 Speaker 1: Budabaker has been playing with a club. You gotta get 2177 01:53:27,800 --> 01:53:29,439 Speaker 1: out there and make it work. So maybe you drop 2178 01:53:29,479 --> 01:53:32,600 Speaker 1: an interception, but you can break the ball up. The 2179 01:53:32,680 --> 01:53:34,720 Speaker 1: way Cam has been playing, I thought he had a 2180 01:53:34,800 --> 01:53:37,080 Speaker 1: great game obviously versus the Tennessee Titans. So it's a 2181 01:53:37,160 --> 01:53:39,080 Speaker 1: guy that if it's your risk and you can take 2182 01:53:39,120 --> 01:53:40,519 Speaker 1: it up and get out there, still do your job. 2183 01:53:40,600 --> 01:53:43,320 Speaker 1: And this is what I mean, guys that borderline. You 2184 01:53:43,400 --> 01:53:45,080 Speaker 1: need to go out there and compete because you know 2185 01:53:45,200 --> 01:53:47,200 Speaker 1: the defense. You don't necessarily wanting to pend on somebody 2186 01:53:47,200 --> 01:53:48,840 Speaker 1: that you have to activate that doesn't have the same 2187 01:53:48,880 --> 01:53:51,080 Speaker 1: type of game experience as you do, and go out there, 2188 01:53:51,160 --> 01:53:53,439 Speaker 1: especially with all these guys who just name that are 2189 01:53:53,479 --> 01:53:57,040 Speaker 1: out because of because they're injured not hurt. And that's 2190 01:53:57,080 --> 01:53:59,560 Speaker 1: always that line that you have to decide as a 2191 01:53:59,600 --> 01:54:02,200 Speaker 1: coaching day. So That's why again I think the game 2192 01:54:02,280 --> 01:54:04,400 Speaker 1: plan this week could be a lot simpler to the point, 2193 01:54:04,640 --> 01:54:07,160 Speaker 1: and just line up and just dominate man on man, 2194 01:54:07,280 --> 01:54:09,200 Speaker 1: whoop the man in front of you, and let's dominate 2195 01:54:09,280 --> 01:54:11,840 Speaker 1: this game from start to finish and and dominateate. I 2196 01:54:11,880 --> 01:54:14,760 Speaker 1: don't mean necessarily you're gonna blow him out by you know, 2197 01:54:14,880 --> 01:54:17,479 Speaker 1: three touchdowns, but you want to control this game from 2198 01:54:17,520 --> 01:54:20,439 Speaker 1: start to finish. And it's no doubt nobody's mind who 2199 01:54:20,520 --> 01:54:22,759 Speaker 1: the better team is out there when you get beating 2200 01:54:22,920 --> 01:54:26,439 Speaker 1: on Sunday. Dane Jackson and Lafayette Pitts, a former teammate 2201 01:54:26,520 --> 01:54:28,000 Speaker 1: of yours, are the two guys that are on the 2202 01:54:28,040 --> 01:54:31,840 Speaker 1: practice squad, so they've they presume a black comfence in Lafayette. Yeah, 2203 01:54:31,920 --> 01:54:33,960 Speaker 1: I've played with Lafayette. I know he can ball when 2204 01:54:33,960 --> 01:54:36,120 Speaker 1: he give an opportunity, so I know that he gets 2205 01:54:36,160 --> 01:54:38,600 Speaker 1: out there. He's a guy that fans can depend on. 2206 01:54:38,720 --> 01:54:40,520 Speaker 1: I know the teammates around him as well. They've just 2207 01:54:40,680 --> 01:54:43,200 Speaker 1: they've signed him Joe just within the last week. So 2208 01:54:43,560 --> 01:54:45,720 Speaker 1: whether he knows the system with these up to speed 2209 01:54:45,800 --> 01:54:49,480 Speaker 1: with us as another another question. But yeah, if you 2210 01:54:50,360 --> 01:54:53,480 Speaker 1: there's starting, it's almost getting to the point now Uh, 2211 01:54:53,640 --> 01:54:58,720 Speaker 1: in week seven. Bye week is week eleven. That's almost 2212 01:54:58,760 --> 01:55:01,000 Speaker 1: too long to wait for guys to come back and 2213 01:55:01,080 --> 01:55:02,560 Speaker 1: give them a chance. I mean, you're not to that 2214 01:55:02,680 --> 01:55:04,840 Speaker 1: point where the bye week is gonna help you yet. 2215 01:55:06,480 --> 01:55:09,760 Speaker 1: Levi Wallace should be off ir by the time, well 2216 01:55:09,880 --> 01:55:13,840 Speaker 1: before the bye week hits. Uh. John Feliciano should be 2217 01:55:14,240 --> 01:55:17,040 Speaker 1: back well before the bye week. If if indeed Matt 2218 01:55:17,120 --> 01:55:19,480 Speaker 1: Milano is getting close, he should be back well before 2219 01:55:19,560 --> 01:55:21,760 Speaker 1: the bye week. They haven't even gotten to the bye 2220 01:55:21,760 --> 01:55:25,400 Speaker 1: week yet, although it's a later by Uh, all these 2221 01:55:25,560 --> 01:55:28,520 Speaker 1: guys and this is something they haven't had to deal 2222 01:55:28,560 --> 01:55:31,200 Speaker 1: with in like, for instance, last year. You know, you 2223 01:55:31,280 --> 01:55:35,200 Speaker 1: gotta stayed incredibly healthy. So what can you tell us 2224 01:55:35,200 --> 01:55:38,000 Speaker 1: about the way this works in the locker room with 2225 01:55:38,200 --> 01:55:42,480 Speaker 1: all these guys iffy about the atmosphere, about how it 2226 01:55:42,600 --> 01:55:46,760 Speaker 1: goes in practice? You know, they're some of the for 2227 01:55:46,800 --> 01:55:48,560 Speaker 1: the most part, and you know all those men that 2228 01:55:48,640 --> 01:55:50,960 Speaker 1: you just name, I know wall And so as long 2229 01:55:51,040 --> 01:55:53,120 Speaker 1: as guys are India trying to get better, trying to 2230 01:55:53,160 --> 01:55:54,640 Speaker 1: get right, and trying to get out there, it's great. 2231 01:55:54,640 --> 01:55:57,640 Speaker 1: And you have to evaluate, uh, you know obviously in practice, 2232 01:55:57,640 --> 01:55:59,160 Speaker 1: and you have to be honest with yourself too. Are 2233 01:55:59,200 --> 01:56:01,480 Speaker 1: you hurt or you injured? And you have to make 2234 01:56:01,560 --> 01:56:04,120 Speaker 1: that declaration. And I think most guys, you trust the 2235 01:56:04,160 --> 01:56:06,160 Speaker 1: guys in the locker room to make that decision. You 2236 01:56:06,240 --> 01:56:08,320 Speaker 1: can tell when guys are kind of hampering their way back. 2237 01:56:08,400 --> 01:56:10,400 Speaker 1: But you do want those guys that you just name 2238 01:56:10,920 --> 01:56:14,840 Speaker 1: Levi Matt john to actually get maybe a game or 2239 01:56:14,840 --> 01:56:17,000 Speaker 1: two win before the bye week, n some of that 2240 01:56:17,120 --> 01:56:18,680 Speaker 1: rust off and get back to who they are and 2241 01:56:18,720 --> 01:56:21,160 Speaker 1: help figure out who that identity of this team is 2242 01:56:21,160 --> 01:56:22,720 Speaker 1: going to continue to be the rest of the season. 2243 01:56:23,080 --> 01:56:25,760 Speaker 1: Then get that reprieve and then kind of regroup, make 2244 01:56:25,800 --> 01:56:28,960 Speaker 1: your adjuster from coaches, rest up and mentally emotionally from 2245 01:56:29,120 --> 01:56:31,480 Speaker 1: a player's perspective, and then come and hit the ground 2246 01:56:31,560 --> 01:56:34,680 Speaker 1: running and really win. And as you know, Steve, November 2247 01:56:34,720 --> 01:56:36,760 Speaker 1: and December of the most important months in the league, 2248 01:56:36,800 --> 01:56:39,880 Speaker 1: we can catch fire and really make a run. But 2249 01:56:39,920 --> 01:56:43,160 Speaker 1: I would say this, I remember, you know, I'll date 2250 01:56:43,200 --> 01:56:45,080 Speaker 1: myself a little bit. I ain't that old, but two 2251 01:56:45,160 --> 01:56:48,520 Speaker 1: thousand and Tennis when Aaron Rodgers and the boys were hurt, 2252 01:56:48,720 --> 01:56:51,800 Speaker 1: guys were fallen out earlier in the season and they 2253 01:56:51,840 --> 01:56:53,880 Speaker 1: thought their season was over. Lost your Michael finning off 2254 01:56:53,920 --> 01:56:55,480 Speaker 1: the whole bunch of other guys, and then as the 2255 01:56:55,520 --> 01:56:58,520 Speaker 1: season went on they had to play without those guys, 2256 01:56:58,560 --> 01:57:01,440 Speaker 1: so you got great depth, and as those guys got healthier, 2257 01:57:01,800 --> 01:57:03,960 Speaker 1: they just added back to it and got much better 2258 01:57:04,040 --> 01:57:05,800 Speaker 1: by the end of the season and actually ended up 2259 01:57:06,160 --> 01:57:08,440 Speaker 1: winning the Super Bowl that year. It might have been 2260 01:57:08,440 --> 01:57:10,280 Speaker 1: like the two thousand and nine two thousand and ten seasons. 2261 01:57:10,360 --> 01:57:13,000 Speaker 1: So it's good that the injuries, if they're going out 2262 01:57:13,040 --> 01:57:15,480 Speaker 1: curve that they happened early and they're not happening in 2263 01:57:15,800 --> 01:57:18,200 Speaker 1: mid December as you get ready to go to the playoffs. 2264 01:57:18,240 --> 01:57:21,200 Speaker 1: So hopefully you get some more death, get some younger guys, 2265 01:57:21,280 --> 01:57:23,800 Speaker 1: some experience, and then you can win a couple of 2266 01:57:23,840 --> 01:57:28,560 Speaker 1: these games before the bye week and be sitting you know, 2267 01:57:29,280 --> 01:57:32,240 Speaker 1: six and two or six and three, whatever that ratio 2268 01:57:32,400 --> 01:57:34,120 Speaker 1: may be, to where you can come back and then 2269 01:57:34,240 --> 01:57:36,440 Speaker 1: hit it and finish the season off strong, win the division, 2270 01:57:36,520 --> 01:57:38,960 Speaker 1: and go stronger to the playoffs. All right, are you're 2271 01:57:38,960 --> 01:57:42,160 Speaker 1: ready to give us your lowdowns here? Sir? Yeah? I 2272 01:57:42,200 --> 01:57:44,080 Speaker 1: mean I don't really have any lowdowns for you this week. 2273 01:57:44,120 --> 01:57:46,320 Speaker 1: It's real simple. I mean, for me, it's keeping the 2274 01:57:46,400 --> 01:57:49,160 Speaker 1: game playing simple. Just come out here, subjects. I know 2275 01:57:49,240 --> 01:57:52,000 Speaker 1: it's an an NFL football team, but nobody really on 2276 01:57:52,080 --> 01:57:54,320 Speaker 1: that roster like just scares you to death where you 2277 01:57:54,400 --> 01:57:56,000 Speaker 1: have to come out and come up with all this this, 2278 01:57:56,960 --> 01:58:00,839 Speaker 1: these unique coverages or any specific game planning. So especially 2279 01:58:00,840 --> 01:58:03,400 Speaker 1: when you got young guys out there, guys that are back, 2280 01:58:03,440 --> 01:58:05,520 Speaker 1: so keep the game playing simple. So gods go out 2281 01:58:05,560 --> 01:58:08,040 Speaker 1: there and fly around hunting up and that leads to 2282 01:58:08,400 --> 01:58:11,040 Speaker 1: offense getting you know, point two offense coming out and 2283 01:58:11,120 --> 01:58:14,760 Speaker 1: having a start a fast start to the game, you know, 2284 01:58:14,920 --> 01:58:18,520 Speaker 1: running and catching, Josh being on target, being get communication 2285 01:58:18,600 --> 01:58:21,200 Speaker 1: with his receivers, and then the defense guys just being 2286 01:58:21,280 --> 01:58:23,920 Speaker 1: especially in that run game. That's the most demoralizing thing. 2287 01:58:24,000 --> 01:58:26,040 Speaker 1: I was part of that team in seventeen where the 2288 01:58:26,120 --> 01:58:28,800 Speaker 1: Senses ran it down our throats twenty two straight times. 2289 01:58:29,320 --> 01:58:31,240 Speaker 1: That's what this game felt like and look like to me. 2290 01:58:31,880 --> 01:58:35,160 Speaker 1: So getting back to just playing downhill physical and making 2291 01:58:35,200 --> 01:58:37,200 Speaker 1: sure that you impose your will on that fronts, that 2292 01:58:37,360 --> 01:58:40,920 Speaker 1: front of the Jets, and just you know, and just 2293 01:58:41,040 --> 01:58:43,120 Speaker 1: make make it stimmy, you know, just be real physical 2294 01:58:43,600 --> 01:58:45,920 Speaker 1: and you're playing on their side of the line scrimmage. 2295 01:58:45,920 --> 01:58:47,760 Speaker 1: So those are like the three points. It's not really 2296 01:58:47,920 --> 01:58:51,520 Speaker 1: intricol real detail or real you know this real simple, 2297 01:58:51,960 --> 01:58:56,120 Speaker 1: real basic idea of playing football sounds good, works for me. 2298 01:58:56,560 --> 01:58:59,760 Speaker 1: Lorenzo's Oh, it's thanks for the time. Good sing. Keep 2299 01:58:59,760 --> 01:59:02,240 Speaker 1: work on your tan out there in Arizona. Hey, it's 2300 01:59:02,280 --> 01:59:05,400 Speaker 1: seventy seven too.

Here on One Bills Live, 2310 01:59:31,200 --> 01:59:47,520 Speaker 1: presented by Kalid to Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. Final 2311 01:59:47,640 --> 01:59:50,440 Speaker 1: half hour of the program, Friday edition of One Bills Live. 2312 01:59:50,560 --> 01:59:52,680 Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you, and we go to 2313 01:59:52,760 --> 01:59:55,200 Speaker 1: the tweet sheet because we've got another issue on the 2314 01:59:55,240 --> 01:59:59,040 Speaker 1: Football Crisis Hotline, so we'll see what the emergency is 2315 01:59:59,160 --> 02:00:02,480 Speaker 1: from Brian. This one really gets me. Yeah, because this 2316 02:00:02,720 --> 02:00:07,280 Speaker 1: is a direct shot across the bow of your fanship 2317 02:00:07,400 --> 02:00:10,440 Speaker 1: for this guy. Go ahead, he says, My wife wants 2318 02:00:10,480 --> 02:00:13,280 Speaker 1: to do some fun fall activities on Sunday. That's in 2319 02:00:13,400 --> 02:00:18,120 Speaker 1: quotes fun fall activities, the AKA paying fifty dollars to 2320 02:00:18,200 --> 02:00:20,880 Speaker 1: go apple picking. When I told her there's a Bills 2321 02:00:20,960 --> 02:00:24,680 Speaker 1: game on Sunday, she responded with, quote, it's the Jets. 2322 02:00:25,560 --> 02:00:28,000 Speaker 1: What do I do? Do I take the l because 2323 02:00:28,000 --> 02:00:30,560 Speaker 1: it's just the Jets and go apple picking? Or can 2324 02:00:30,680 --> 02:00:33,200 Speaker 1: you help me out? So what I did in advance 2325 02:00:33,240 --> 02:00:37,160 Speaker 1: of this query, Steve is I went to the weather 2326 02:00:37,680 --> 02:00:43,280 Speaker 1: outlook and Saturday is supposed to be overcast in forty 2327 02:00:43,360 --> 02:00:48,240 Speaker 1: six game day Sunday partly sunny fifty one. So presumably 2328 02:00:48,640 --> 02:00:51,680 Speaker 1: the missus is choosing the better of the two weather days, 2329 02:00:51,720 --> 02:00:56,320 Speaker 1: which is why she suggested Sunday. My suggestion to Brian 2330 02:00:56,480 --> 02:01:03,480 Speaker 1: is this, Okay, I would jest trying to sell Saturday 2331 02:01:04,320 --> 02:01:07,680 Speaker 1: as best as you possibly can, and I think you 2332 02:01:07,800 --> 02:01:12,320 Speaker 1: have to enhance the apple picking excursion with an additional 2333 02:01:12,480 --> 02:01:15,840 Speaker 1: layer of something to get your Sunday free. So what 2334 02:01:15,960 --> 02:01:19,560 Speaker 1: I mean by that is you say, hey, Han, I'm 2335 02:01:19,640 --> 02:01:23,120 Speaker 1: thinking we should go apple picking on Saturday and I 2336 02:01:23,280 --> 02:01:26,879 Speaker 1: think what we should do is go for a nice drive, 2337 02:01:28,240 --> 02:01:32,200 Speaker 1: enjoy the fall foliage, and stop for a lunch somewhere 2338 02:01:33,400 --> 02:01:37,320 Speaker 1: that we can have because, you know, make it, make 2339 02:01:37,360 --> 02:01:39,880 Speaker 1: it a day. You're gonna have to invest more time 2340 02:01:40,320 --> 02:01:44,160 Speaker 1: to sell Saturday so you can get Sunday in return. Yeah. 2341 02:01:44,200 --> 02:01:49,120 Speaker 1: Make that's my no, No, make Saturday. You want to 2342 02:01:49,160 --> 02:01:51,160 Speaker 1: do to make Saturday more than just going out to 2343 02:01:51,200 --> 02:01:55,320 Speaker 1: pick apples? Got apple pick un lunch on a veranda 2344 02:01:55,400 --> 02:01:57,760 Speaker 1: or bottle of wine whatever, that's a good call to 2345 02:01:58,120 --> 02:02:06,560 Speaker 1: also to um eat the well you can do this way. 2346 02:02:06,600 --> 02:02:10,600 Speaker 1: You can play the retroactive card and say, honey, the 2347 02:02:10,680 --> 02:02:13,800 Speaker 1: Bills haven't had a game in the last three Sundays. Well, 2348 02:02:13,840 --> 02:02:16,920 Speaker 1: what were we doing then? Happen? What happened? We were 2349 02:02:17,000 --> 02:02:19,760 Speaker 1: we played on a Tuesday, Monday and playing on a Monday. 2350 02:02:20,400 --> 02:02:21,880 Speaker 1: What are we doing? What are you doing, babe? I 2351 02:02:21,960 --> 02:02:23,960 Speaker 1: mean we got a game. Now, this is a Sunday 2352 02:02:23,960 --> 02:02:25,480 Speaker 1: where we actually have a game. What were we doing 2353 02:02:25,560 --> 02:02:29,080 Speaker 1: back then? Hon? So, I like your idea, but you 2354 02:02:29,120 --> 02:02:31,520 Speaker 1: can play both those cards in conjunction with each other 2355 02:02:31,920 --> 02:02:33,560 Speaker 1: to get out of saying listen all I'm you know, 2356 02:02:33,680 --> 02:02:35,360 Speaker 1: three hours on the Sunday afternoon. I'll give you all 2357 02:02:35,440 --> 02:02:39,160 Speaker 1: day Saturday, and plus where were you the last two Sundays? Babe? 2358 02:02:39,880 --> 02:02:42,160 Speaker 1: You know we had nothing going on in those Sundays 2359 02:02:42,200 --> 02:02:45,200 Speaker 1: and we couldn't go apple picking there. So then if 2360 02:02:45,320 --> 02:02:47,120 Speaker 1: you know, of course, then again too she could go 2361 02:02:47,200 --> 02:02:48,280 Speaker 1: back and look at the weather and say it was 2362 02:02:48,280 --> 02:02:50,720 Speaker 1: impossible to kill. But don't let her go there. It 2363 02:02:50,880 --> 02:02:54,240 Speaker 1: was nice last week because I was out with my 2364 02:02:54,360 --> 02:02:56,680 Speaker 1: family last Sunday. That's what you got to do in 2365 02:02:56,720 --> 02:02:59,360 Speaker 1: the pumpkin thing. So I go, honey, babe, I love it, 2366 02:02:59,480 --> 02:03:01,760 Speaker 1: but we should have done that the last two Sundays 2367 02:03:01,760 --> 02:03:04,240 Speaker 1: in a row. You know, this is the first I 2368 02:03:04,280 --> 02:03:07,520 Speaker 1: think you're compromises. Try to sell Saturday Saturday and a 2369 02:03:07,600 --> 02:03:10,120 Speaker 1: couple of little extra things on top of just apple 2370 02:03:10,160 --> 02:03:14,080 Speaker 1: picking and just no going in because you're not gonna 2371 02:03:14,120 --> 02:03:16,680 Speaker 1: get this unless you invest more time with her on 2372 02:03:16,960 --> 02:03:21,440 Speaker 1: Saturday to get your Sunday back. You don't have to 2373 02:03:21,520 --> 02:03:25,320 Speaker 1: be disingenuous about it. Say honey, I'd rather watch the 2374 02:03:25,400 --> 02:03:27,200 Speaker 1: game on Sunday. But I'll make a deal with you. 2375 02:03:27,320 --> 02:03:30,080 Speaker 1: How about this, We'll do this thing on Saturday, Brownie 2376 02:03:30,160 --> 02:03:34,000 Speaker 1: to whatever. She's a big pumpkin spice girl, you take 2377 02:03:34,040 --> 02:03:36,440 Speaker 1: her to some cafe where you can do pumpkin spice 2378 02:03:36,480 --> 02:03:39,080 Speaker 1: and you know you can eat pumpkin spice muffles whatever 2379 02:03:39,160 --> 02:03:41,440 Speaker 1: you want. Do make a you know, a brunch or 2380 02:03:41,480 --> 02:03:43,880 Speaker 1: a lunch out of that, and then you know, do 2381 02:03:44,000 --> 02:03:46,320 Speaker 1: the apple picking after. And here's another big thing too, 2382 02:03:47,680 --> 02:03:49,440 Speaker 1: and say, I'd like to watch the game, but it'd 2383 02:03:49,480 --> 02:03:51,760 Speaker 1: be even better if you if if this is, if 2384 02:03:51,920 --> 02:03:55,120 Speaker 1: you know your wife better than anybody else, if she 2385 02:03:55,200 --> 02:03:57,280 Speaker 1: would be into being invited to watch she wants to 2386 02:03:57,280 --> 02:03:58,680 Speaker 1: watch the game with you, say, hone, I'd love to 2387 02:03:58,680 --> 02:04:00,560 Speaker 1: do all this stuff with you, and then I want 2388 02:04:00,560 --> 02:04:03,760 Speaker 1: you to watch the game, watch it together, right, So 2389 02:04:04,360 --> 02:04:06,840 Speaker 1: include her in the entire weekend, which that'll go a 2390 02:04:06,960 --> 02:04:10,560 Speaker 1: long way. That'll go a long way. Not just say 2391 02:04:10,720 --> 02:04:12,520 Speaker 1: leave me alone for the game, but you know, be 2392 02:04:12,680 --> 02:04:15,960 Speaker 1: part of it. Yeah, gotta get creative, Man's that's the 2393 02:04:16,040 --> 02:04:20,840 Speaker 1: way to That's what you gotta do. Sell Saturday, enlarge it, 2394 02:04:21,880 --> 02:04:24,240 Speaker 1: and then it also included make the investment on Saturday 2395 02:04:24,320 --> 02:04:26,720 Speaker 1: so you can get your Sunday back exactly. And that's 2396 02:04:26,720 --> 02:04:28,880 Speaker 1: how you do it. Here on the Football Crisis Hotline, 2397 02:04:28,880 --> 02:04:30,960 Speaker 1: We're glad you chimed in. Hopefully that's a solution that's 2398 02:04:30,960 --> 02:04:34,200 Speaker 1: workable for you. Work your magic there, all right, Brian, 2399 02:04:34,680 --> 02:04:37,480 Speaker 1: We do have to get back to the obl mail bag, 2400 02:04:38,200 --> 02:04:42,520 Speaker 1: which from Zach. No we did, Zach, We have to 2401 02:04:42,560 --> 02:04:44,640 Speaker 1: go to Jack. Sorry, I knew it was a ac 2402 02:04:44,880 --> 02:04:49,280 Speaker 1: name from Jack. With the Giants falling again last night, 2403 02:04:49,400 --> 02:04:52,920 Speaker 1: could one of their run stuffers like Dalvin Tomlinson be 2404 02:04:52,960 --> 02:04:55,360 Speaker 1: a potential trade target for the Bills? Could they also 2405 02:04:55,440 --> 02:04:58,040 Speaker 1: add a corner With Wallace out and now Norman and 2406 02:04:58,160 --> 02:05:00,200 Speaker 1: Lewis dinged up, it'd be scary to have to rely 2407 02:05:00,360 --> 02:05:04,040 Speaker 1: on Dane Jackson a seventh round rookie. Here's the thing 2408 02:05:04,280 --> 02:05:10,640 Speaker 1: and I get it. Uh, yes, Will Wilkinson, I guess 2409 02:05:11,200 --> 02:05:16,080 Speaker 1: is Alvin Tomlinson. Tomlinson is a possibility. He would barely, 2410 02:05:16,680 --> 02:05:19,200 Speaker 1: but he would fit with the remaining thing. He's in 2411 02:05:19,280 --> 02:05:20,840 Speaker 1: a contract here. I think he's in the last year 2412 02:05:20,880 --> 02:05:25,240 Speaker 1: this year contract contract. He could fit. He's a space heater, 2413 02:05:25,280 --> 02:05:27,000 Speaker 1: he's got all that stuff going for him. You could 2414 02:05:27,000 --> 02:05:28,840 Speaker 1: probably get him for a mid to late round pick 2415 02:05:29,600 --> 02:05:33,640 Speaker 1: um and it's a possibility, and he would fit um 2416 02:05:34,040 --> 02:05:36,040 Speaker 1: and he's a good player, and he's a big dude. 2417 02:05:36,160 --> 02:05:38,920 Speaker 1: All of that stuff he's got going on. I think 2418 02:05:39,040 --> 02:05:41,080 Speaker 1: he'd be into it, coming in playing in the last 2419 02:05:41,120 --> 02:05:42,840 Speaker 1: year of his rookie deal, trying to play for a 2420 02:05:42,960 --> 02:05:45,280 Speaker 1: contract with a team that's been going to the playoffs 2421 02:05:45,720 --> 02:05:47,320 Speaker 1: and would have a spot for him. You know, this 2422 02:05:47,600 --> 02:05:52,640 Speaker 1: culture would would speak to him, and he would just 2423 02:05:52,880 --> 02:05:55,320 Speaker 1: barely fit under the cap for the rest of the season. 2424 02:05:55,360 --> 02:05:56,520 Speaker 1: Then you got to figure out if you want to 2425 02:05:56,520 --> 02:05:57,920 Speaker 1: sign him at the end of the deal. But that's it. 2426 02:05:58,040 --> 02:06:00,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you're you can be done with him, but 2427 02:06:00,560 --> 02:06:02,560 Speaker 1: you're giving up. But there's a good chance he'd be 2428 02:06:02,600 --> 02:06:06,920 Speaker 1: a rental mid yeah, mid to late round pick. You'd 2429 02:06:06,960 --> 02:06:09,200 Speaker 1: have to really work hard to talk him into sticking around. 2430 02:06:09,200 --> 02:06:11,040 Speaker 1: But that's what you're looking at. He might help you 2431 02:06:11,160 --> 02:06:14,360 Speaker 1: this year, but he would take you. He would eat 2432 02:06:14,440 --> 02:06:17,680 Speaker 1: up I think almost a third to half of what 2433 02:06:17,800 --> 02:06:22,200 Speaker 1: you have under the cap. I think it's a one 2434 02:06:22,280 --> 02:06:27,720 Speaker 1: point three hitka something like that. But having said all 2435 02:06:27,760 --> 02:06:31,400 Speaker 1: of that, yes, that's a possibility. The guy's a good player, uh, 2436 02:06:32,400 --> 02:06:36,160 Speaker 1: And he's been bandied about by a lot of people 2437 02:06:36,760 --> 02:06:39,600 Speaker 1: to be the guy that could be a guy that 2438 02:06:39,640 --> 02:06:41,200 Speaker 1: they could go out and get because they can afford 2439 02:06:41,280 --> 02:06:43,800 Speaker 1: him and he's the right spot plays the right way. 2440 02:06:44,200 --> 02:06:46,240 Speaker 1: I think it's pro rated salary. He's only a little 2441 02:06:46,280 --> 02:06:50,360 Speaker 1: over half a million, right, so he's the most important 2442 02:06:50,400 --> 02:06:52,840 Speaker 1: thing here is with your limited cap space, he's affordable. 2443 02:06:53,480 --> 02:06:55,840 Speaker 1: So now it's just do you like him as a fit, 2444 02:06:56,480 --> 02:06:59,520 Speaker 1: and then after that it's what do we gotta part 2445 02:06:59,600 --> 02:07:02,960 Speaker 1: with to get him here? Right? And you know Grandon 2446 02:07:03,000 --> 02:07:05,800 Speaker 1: being in Dave Gettlement or former co workers, so you'd 2447 02:07:05,880 --> 02:07:07,760 Speaker 1: like to think that they'd be reasonable with one another. 2448 02:07:08,360 --> 02:07:11,480 Speaker 1: And does the loss by the Giants help yesterday? Probably 2449 02:07:11,960 --> 02:07:15,240 Speaker 1: unless Joe Judge loves d Allen Tomlinson, you know what 2450 02:07:15,320 --> 02:07:17,440 Speaker 1: I mean. So we'll have to see where that goes. 2451 02:07:17,640 --> 02:07:20,440 Speaker 1: Not one hundred as to whether that's a deal that 2452 02:07:20,520 --> 02:07:23,000 Speaker 1: can get done. You could probably get him from mid 2453 02:07:23,080 --> 02:07:26,480 Speaker 1: to late round pick. He's a yeah, five hundred and 2454 02:07:26,520 --> 02:07:28,360 Speaker 1: forty four grand against the cap, and that's it. You 2455 02:07:28,400 --> 02:07:30,280 Speaker 1: don't know him a thing. You can try and sign 2456 02:07:30,400 --> 02:07:31,880 Speaker 1: him back. You can offer him a deal, but you 2457 02:07:31,920 --> 02:07:36,000 Speaker 1: don't have to pay him. He's no cap hit, he's 2458 02:07:36,040 --> 02:07:40,240 Speaker 1: no dead money next year, nothing. It would be totally 2459 02:07:40,320 --> 02:07:42,440 Speaker 1: just for the rest of this season and then whatever 2460 02:07:42,520 --> 02:07:45,640 Speaker 1: you feel like he's worth going forward, pay as you go. 2461 02:07:46,800 --> 02:07:50,520 Speaker 1: That's a guy that's that's a possibility. There's also a 2462 02:07:50,600 --> 02:07:53,920 Speaker 1: guy from the Saints at Sheldon Rankins who's kind of 2463 02:07:53,960 --> 02:07:56,320 Speaker 1: along the same thing, a little bit more money, a 2464 02:07:56,360 --> 02:07:58,440 Speaker 1: little bit more money. He's about eight hundred and fifty 2465 02:07:58,520 --> 02:08:02,240 Speaker 1: grand against the cap, but it's it's the same thing. 2466 02:08:02,480 --> 02:08:04,480 Speaker 1: You get him on the deadline, that's all you get 2467 02:08:04,560 --> 02:08:06,800 Speaker 1: him for. Uh. And then you got to talk him. 2468 02:08:06,880 --> 02:08:09,280 Speaker 1: You got to talk him into staying and offer him 2469 02:08:09,320 --> 02:08:10,880 Speaker 1: a thing. If you're only gonna have a guy for 2470 02:08:11,000 --> 02:08:13,160 Speaker 1: ten games, obviously, if you're a GM, you don't want 2471 02:08:13,200 --> 02:08:15,240 Speaker 1: to part with some major draft capital. Non you're only 2472 02:08:15,240 --> 02:08:17,720 Speaker 1: gonna get a guy for ten games here, mid to 2473 02:08:17,880 --> 02:08:19,760 Speaker 1: late at best. And then you go around. There's a 2474 02:08:19,800 --> 02:08:24,160 Speaker 1: guy with the Falcons, Tyler Davidson. You'd only have to 2475 02:08:24,160 --> 02:08:26,160 Speaker 1: give a late round pick for they're one in five. 2476 02:08:26,320 --> 02:08:27,760 Speaker 1: They got off to a one in five start, they 2477 02:08:27,800 --> 02:08:29,880 Speaker 1: fired their head coach, and GM they might be a 2478 02:08:29,960 --> 02:08:32,760 Speaker 1: team that would unload a guy just to get rid 2479 02:08:32,800 --> 02:08:37,120 Speaker 1: of him. But he's this year, he'd cost you four 2480 02:08:37,200 --> 02:08:39,240 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty five grand. But he's got a two 2481 02:08:39,320 --> 02:08:42,280 Speaker 1: more years on his deal in twenty one and twenty two, 2482 02:08:42,360 --> 02:08:43,960 Speaker 1: and you'd be paying him three and a half million 2483 02:08:44,560 --> 02:08:49,400 Speaker 1: on average for those two years going forward. Yeah, and 2484 02:08:49,440 --> 02:08:53,560 Speaker 1: don't forget stars contract goes back on your books next year. Yes, 2485 02:08:53,640 --> 02:08:56,600 Speaker 1: but even Starlot lass about that money. I mean, that's 2486 02:08:56,600 --> 02:09:00,200 Speaker 1: about that. That's not that much money. But they're also 2487 02:09:00,280 --> 02:09:04,120 Speaker 1: getting Trent Murphy off the books next year, so it 2488 02:09:04,280 --> 02:09:06,160 Speaker 1: might be a push. But they could do that with 2489 02:09:06,280 --> 02:09:10,280 Speaker 1: a kid from the Falcons as Tyler Davison, and might 2490 02:09:10,600 --> 02:09:12,240 Speaker 1: might make some sense. But they're guys out there, and 2491 02:09:12,280 --> 02:09:14,760 Speaker 1: I told you maybe we've had this conversation yesterday, Brownie. 2492 02:09:15,920 --> 02:09:20,760 Speaker 1: There's there's like this, like a spoonful of guys out 2493 02:09:20,840 --> 02:09:24,280 Speaker 1: there that much that fit the bill right on the 2494 02:09:24,440 --> 02:09:28,000 Speaker 1: right team, Like the Giants are bad, can play the nose, 2495 02:09:28,080 --> 02:09:30,520 Speaker 1: the Falcons are bad, affordable and on a team that 2496 02:09:30,640 --> 02:09:32,200 Speaker 1: might be willing to part right. And the Saints have 2497 02:09:32,280 --> 02:09:35,920 Speaker 1: got some depth. So you may be able to prime 2498 02:09:35,960 --> 02:09:39,880 Speaker 1: away from those guys and it would work for you financially. 2499 02:09:40,960 --> 02:09:43,160 Speaker 1: So but we'll see, you know, you might you call 2500 02:09:43,240 --> 02:09:45,120 Speaker 1: all of them and see which ones. Yeah, you can 2501 02:09:45,200 --> 02:09:48,040 Speaker 1: get from Robert on the obl mailbag, do you think 2502 02:09:48,080 --> 02:09:50,320 Speaker 1: with the schedule being changed because of COVID and all 2503 02:09:50,320 --> 02:09:52,320 Speaker 1: the injuries. It could have been part of the reasons 2504 02:09:52,360 --> 02:09:55,120 Speaker 1: for the two losses. They're certainly baked into that. I 2505 02:09:55,160 --> 02:09:58,160 Speaker 1: don't think there's any question about that. Steve has gone 2506 02:09:58,200 --> 02:10:00,680 Speaker 1: over that several times we have game, we don't have 2507 02:10:00,760 --> 02:10:02,360 Speaker 1: a game. We might be playing the Chiefs and not 2508 02:10:02,480 --> 02:10:05,200 Speaker 1: the Titans this week. It screwed up the whole process 2509 02:10:05,680 --> 02:10:07,920 Speaker 1: by which they prepare for games, and that team was 2510 02:10:07,960 --> 02:10:10,360 Speaker 1: not ready to play. I'll say it's the Titans. As 2511 02:10:10,400 --> 02:10:12,800 Speaker 1: far as the injuries, hell yeah, it was a factor. 2512 02:10:13,160 --> 02:10:15,800 Speaker 1: You take Tradevious White and Matt Milano off the field, 2513 02:10:16,640 --> 02:10:19,200 Speaker 1: those are two of your four best defenders on your 2514 02:10:19,240 --> 02:10:23,880 Speaker 1: starting unit. It's gonna affect some things, right, I think offensively, 2515 02:10:24,880 --> 02:10:27,560 Speaker 1: the Titans game was a game. I'm not saying they 2516 02:10:27,600 --> 02:10:29,640 Speaker 1: would have won that game, but they would have played well. 2517 02:10:30,120 --> 02:10:32,200 Speaker 1: They would have played better had they know if it 2518 02:10:32,320 --> 02:10:34,560 Speaker 1: had it happened on the day it was supposed to happen, 2519 02:10:34,640 --> 02:10:37,480 Speaker 1: without any interruptions, with no doubts coming into it in 2520 02:10:37,800 --> 02:10:40,480 Speaker 1: the preparation, the Bills would have showed up and played better. 2521 02:10:40,520 --> 02:10:42,200 Speaker 1: I'm not saying they would have beat the Titans, because 2522 02:10:42,240 --> 02:10:43,920 Speaker 1: the Titans played very well in that game. Would have 2523 02:10:43,920 --> 02:10:45,600 Speaker 1: been a more competitive game. It would have been a 2524 02:10:45,680 --> 02:10:47,760 Speaker 1: more competitive game, and you wouldn't have this feeling like, 2525 02:10:47,760 --> 02:10:49,880 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, the Titans hung forty two on us 2526 02:10:49,880 --> 02:10:51,640 Speaker 1: and we couldn't keep our hands on the ball, we 2527 02:10:51,760 --> 02:10:55,640 Speaker 1: were giving it away and all that stuff. There wouldn't 2528 02:10:55,640 --> 02:10:57,960 Speaker 1: have been the bad taste in your mouth after that game, 2529 02:10:58,960 --> 02:11:01,360 Speaker 1: had the Bills known it was going to happen, had 2530 02:11:01,400 --> 02:11:03,800 Speaker 1: it not, had had they not had a breakout of 2531 02:11:03,880 --> 02:11:07,360 Speaker 1: the virus on the Titans, that threw the whole thing 2532 02:11:07,440 --> 02:11:11,200 Speaker 1: into a quandary. So I'm there is that baked into that, 2533 02:11:11,360 --> 02:11:14,680 Speaker 1: no question, and I'm still sitting at that point. I'm 2534 02:11:14,680 --> 02:11:17,160 Speaker 1: not saying they would have won the Tennessee game, but 2535 02:11:17,200 --> 02:11:18,480 Speaker 1: I know this, they would have played a lot, a 2536 02:11:18,520 --> 02:11:20,520 Speaker 1: lot better. All Right, we have to take a break 2537 02:11:20,560 --> 02:11:22,880 Speaker 1: when we come back. One more segment to go as 2538 02:11:22,920 --> 02:11:25,680 Speaker 1: we find out what we have learned from today's show. 2539 02:11:25,840 --> 02:11:27,880 Speaker 1: Coming up next here on One Bill's Live, presented by 2540 02:11:27,960 --> 02:11:46,360 Speaker 1: Kalid to Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio, brought to you 2541 02:11:46,520 --> 02:11:50,920 Speaker 1: by Skyworks, the official construction equipment rental company of the 2542 02:11:50,960 --> 02:11:53,480 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. Talked to Great co Sale today with his 2543 02:11:53,600 --> 02:11:58,040 Speaker 1: weekly appearance on how John Brown not being on the 2544 02:11:58,200 --> 02:12:03,120 Speaker 1: field Sunday might have the Bill's offense. It limits their 2545 02:12:03,200 --> 02:12:06,000 Speaker 1: use of four wide. They still do four wide, but 2546 02:12:06,240 --> 02:12:08,880 Speaker 1: not as much when John Brown is not out there, 2547 02:12:09,760 --> 02:12:12,000 Speaker 1: and it takes away a big play weapon. And because 2548 02:12:13,320 --> 02:12:16,360 Speaker 1: he's he's that guy. So and I think that that 2549 02:12:17,120 --> 02:12:20,720 Speaker 1: Josh Allen feels comfortable with John Brown throwing on the football, 2550 02:12:20,760 --> 02:12:23,680 Speaker 1: So there's that element as well. So it limits them 2551 02:12:23,720 --> 02:12:27,640 Speaker 1: to some degree. And John Brown was officially declared out 2552 02:12:28,360 --> 02:12:31,640 Speaker 1: by the team for Sunday's game, along with Cody Ford, 2553 02:12:31,760 --> 02:12:35,120 Speaker 1: along with Tyrrell Dotson, and along with Josh Norman who 2554 02:12:35,160 --> 02:12:38,800 Speaker 1: tweaked his hamstring, and then Treddavious White, Matt Milano, and 2555 02:12:39,040 --> 02:12:43,240 Speaker 1: Cam Lewis all questionable for Sunday. M Lewis can go 2556 02:12:43,360 --> 02:12:45,480 Speaker 1: with a writ hurt wrist and he wanted to come 2557 02:12:45,520 --> 02:12:47,040 Speaker 1: back in the game on Monday night. You could just 2558 02:12:47,160 --> 02:12:48,760 Speaker 1: tell by him on the sidelines. This is a guy 2559 02:12:48,800 --> 02:12:52,560 Speaker 1: that I mean, you b grad who's here in Buffalo. 2560 02:12:52,720 --> 02:12:54,680 Speaker 1: He wants to play. This is his chance, this is 2561 02:12:54,760 --> 02:12:57,400 Speaker 1: his chance, and he's trying to get on. You got 2562 02:12:57,520 --> 02:12:58,960 Speaker 1: a feel for that guy trying to get on and 2563 02:12:59,040 --> 02:13:02,720 Speaker 1: then breaking it heart, hurting or twisting his wrists. That's 2564 02:13:02,760 --> 02:13:05,600 Speaker 1: a crusher for him. The Bills have two cornerbacks on 2565 02:13:05,760 --> 02:13:09,120 Speaker 1: their practice squad. They are Dane Jackson, the rookie seventh 2566 02:13:09,240 --> 02:13:13,360 Speaker 1: round pick, and Lafayette Pitts, who was recently brought back 2567 02:13:13,400 --> 02:13:16,360 Speaker 1: to the club when they originally experienced a shortage of 2568 02:13:16,400 --> 02:13:18,800 Speaker 1: the cornerback position. Pitts had been with this team in 2569 02:13:18,880 --> 02:13:23,000 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, so he knows the defense. 2570 02:13:23,560 --> 02:13:25,600 Speaker 1: He might get pressed into action both of them. Will 2571 02:13:25,600 --> 02:13:27,760 Speaker 1: I expect them to be the two practice squad call 2572 02:13:27,840 --> 02:13:30,400 Speaker 1: ups this week. The necessity they've almost got to be 2573 02:13:30,560 --> 02:13:35,800 Speaker 1: up given the question marks with Trdavious White and Cam 2574 02:13:35,920 --> 02:13:38,200 Speaker 1: Lewis and the rest. They've got to have these guys 2575 02:13:38,280 --> 02:13:40,200 Speaker 1: up there to have enough bodies to go on Sunday, 2576 02:13:40,200 --> 02:13:42,280 Speaker 1: So it'll be some more roster shuffling as we come 2577 02:13:42,320 --> 02:13:44,760 Speaker 1: to this game.
