3
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: is the snow. Let's go as we'll get into in

4
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: just a second, along with some practice updates for you,

5
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 1: among other things. Steve, last night, I am at Wegman's

6
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: with my wife as we needed to pick up a

7
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: few items. You know, this wasn't a panic. Oh my god,

8
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: we gotta go to the grocery store. It's just like,

9
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: all right, we're light on a little food in case

10
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: we get marooned at home for a day or two.

11
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: Let's just make sure we have a couple of the essentials.

12
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: You know, Steve, I get there later, you walk out

13
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 1: of there. No, no, no, Steve, I'm there last night

14
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: at the grocery store. There's two loaves of bread in

15
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: the entire bread aisle. Okay, I go to the froe.

16
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: I go to the freezer. Not the freezer. I go

17
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: to the fridge, you know, dairy section. There's no gallons

18
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,199
Speaker 1: of milk left, only half gallons, which is fine because

19
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: it's just two of us at the house. Grab my milk.

20
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: There's no eggs, Steve, this is not armageddon. It's a snowstorm.

21
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: We're gonna be Western New York. Who knows what goes

22
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: on in these situations. But here's the thing. There's no

23
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: bread here. I'm convinced for the next seventy two hours

24
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: people are gonna be egg salad sandwiches, apparently, because there's

25
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: no eggs or milk anywhere to be found. Don't you

26
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 1: get it? Though, it's fun to go out and hoard

27
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: stuff for the for the oncoming how much bread? I know.

28
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: It's so fun, though, to go get Oh, it's gonna

29
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,679
Speaker 1: be so fun. Everybody's all excited. Listen, I said it

30
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 1: yesterday we were in the control room. I didn't believe it.

31
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: People the crew out there and Tom, Jeff, Jamie, Shannon,

32
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: we're all out there, George. The energy was palpable because

33
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: you could see a snow day coming. Okay, fun. Everybody

34
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: was giddy with the fact that we're all gonna be

35
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: out and we're gonna staying. Oh, it's gonna be and

36
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: so Abydy's gonna go out and get some stuff. So

37
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: they so they're all ready to hunker down. It's fun.

38
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: It's fun. We are seasoned veterans at this stuff. People

39
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: of Western New York you know what I'm talking about.

40
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: You know that you make proper preparations. But panic buying

41
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 1: it the grocery store. That is hold on. That is

42
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: not us. That is not this is what people do

43
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: in Atlanta when there's two inches of snow and there's

44
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: no bread left. I'm telling you right now, I think

45
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: you got the wrong take on this, because I think

46
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: this is not panic buying. This is like just as fun.

47
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: This is gonna be Oh, it's gonna be great. People

48
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: are excited about being like everybody staying home from work

49
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: tomorrow because it's gonna snow. Well, you and we have

Speaker 1: from our houses. I just everybody very surprised. I don't

52
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: think anybody's panic, and I think they're like, oh, it'll

53
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: be there. It's like snow day. Man, it's the best,

54
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: all right, That's what it is. I don't know why

55
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: you need five loaves of house you don't. I was

56
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: that was justif it's fun to spend the money getting

57
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: ready for snow day, if it's born and raised in Buffalo,

58
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: Like I'm looking at her, going I go this is

59
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: I said. I looked at her I said, this is new,

60
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: this is a new thing. Yeah, listen, there was no bread.

61
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: I told you too. We've been looking forward to this

62
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: weekend because the cruise coming in for the game, right,

63
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: I mean they've got twenty six to the twenty six

64
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: tickets the law exactly. So they started showing up today

65
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: and you know they're they kind of bust in the door.

66
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 1: You know this our house is like a solar Yeah,

67
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 1: our house is like a salon of the swinging doors,

68
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: like busting the bar room. So they come in and

69
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: and everybody's getting in today and it's a good thing. Yeah,

70
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: but not that Alaskis don't know snow either, right, So

71
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: it's kind of that gearing up for the big weekend

72
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: the Bills games happened. It's a home game, big snowstorm. Um,

73
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: people are already bailing there, you know, treat people are

74
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: trying to get rid of their tickets because you know,

75
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 1: some people and I get it, it's not I don't.

76
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: It's not an indictment on your fanship. If you want

77
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: to unload tickets on a game like this might be

78
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: like the one in Indianapolis, It's that is not an indictment.

79
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 1: It is a little bit of a of an honor,

80
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: a badge of honor for those people who got their

81
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: seat and tickets, they go to the game, they sit

82
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: there and as we've seen the pictures covered literally covered

83
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: in snow, freezing, but they're there. I mean that that

84
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: is a little bit of an honor badge, but it

85
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 1: isn't And to me, it is no indictment. If you say, listen,

86
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: is there anybody else who wants to go to this game?

87
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: Because I've been there, done that kind of thing, right sure,

88
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: So for me this weekend, there's yeah, but you know what,

89
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: I got you and I got no choice. We're here

90
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 1: no matter what. But this crew, with the crew in it,

91
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: there ain't nobody bailing. We got you know, we all

92
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 1: got it's all hands on deck. We gotta make it happen,

93
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: no matter what the conditions are. So and there's a

94
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: little bit of that that goes on all these games,

95
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: but this is this is one of those games where

96
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: you kind of like, Okay, we got some you got

97
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: some decisions to make. You know, even the most ardent

98
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: Bills fans, you got some decisions you gotta make, Like, Okay,

99
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: what's this gonna look like? Are we gonna do this.

100
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,679
Speaker 1: Are we gonna eat the tickets, get rid of the tickets?

101
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: Are we gonna like suck it up and go? Baby?

102
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: You know good? You gotta you gotta make those decisions.

103
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 1: And when are we gonna go? How's this gonna look?

104
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 1: Are we gonna be able to get it? You got

105
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: some question marks and some questions have to be answered

106
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 1: before you can make those decisions. But you know, this

107
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: is one of those Buffalo games where it's like, Okay,

108
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,919
Speaker 1: how are the veterans gonna handle this? Yeah, you know,

109
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: how are we all gonna do? How are we gonna

110
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: do this, folks? Or what's they're gonna look like? And

111
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a different game because this is

112
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: not for the It will be, it might not be.

113
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: You're right, You're exactly right. It makes We don't know

114
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: that yet. But if it's gonna be one of these

115
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: Indianapolis games of a couple of years ago, it's gonna

116
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 1: be like, you know what you gotta this is. This

117
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: is not for the faint of heart. I don't I

118
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: don't think it. I don't think it's not for the

119
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 1: faint of heart. Because Mike Psycho, who we had on

120
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,159
Speaker 1: yesterday meteorologists for Channel four here locally. He said, basically,

121
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 1: the snow event is ending prior to kickoff. It's not

122
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: only that it's like one am Saturday, it's right very

123
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 1: it's like at midnight on Friday night. So fortunately for

124
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: our for our co workers and the great stadium ops

125
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: people that work here, there will will be a window

126
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 1: of time for them to conduct hardcore snow removal without

127
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: the fear of more snow piling up right behind it. All.

128
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: They needs a place to put it, and really, I

129
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: think the biggest issue surrounding the game on Sunday is

130
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: travel safety of the respective teams, both the home team

131
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: getting to the stadium much shorter travel obviously than the

132
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns and their staff and players and coaches, So

133
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: it's traveled to and from the stadium, safety of the

134
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: fans getting to and from the stadium, and proper snow

135
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: removal to allow enough parking for the fans that are

136
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: able to get here. I think those are the main

137
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: issues around the game, more so than what the conditions

138
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: in the game are, Because, as Mike Psyka told us yesterday,

139
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: the snow is largely supposed to the Lake Effect snow

140
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 1: machine is supposed to be turned off at some point

141
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: on Saturday, maybe even as much as twenty four hours

142
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 1: before the game. That's a lot of time for the

143
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: snow removal experts around here to get rid of could

144
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: be upwards of two feet of snow. It's not really

145
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: a major thing. This is what they do. Yeah, every

146
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: everybody knows we can handle it here. The question is

147
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: the only problem is if it's time drawing, you can't

148
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: do anything. We're done, you know, you can't do anything

149
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: about it. That's the timing is showing there should be time.

150
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: There should be So that's what they're kind of looking at.

151
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: And no snow during the game, at least for now.

152
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: From what we're saying. They have a snow squall here

153
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: or there right they say it may start like right

154
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: up right at game time. It may start snowing a

155
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: little bit, but that will be up significant long pause. So, yeah,

156
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: that's what we're looking at. And just so everybody that's

157
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 1: out of town knows that might be listening or watching,

158
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: there's snow squalls right now here in Orchard Park. But

159
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: there is nothing measurable on the ground of any kind

160
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 1: or sort. That's not really happen until tonight. I'm twelve

161
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: minutes or thirteen minutes, fifteen minutes east of the stadium,

162
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: straight east to the stadium. We got four or five

163
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: inches right and down in Cattaraugus and Chattaqua we got

164
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: two or three. Yeah. Down at Chautauqua, Cattaraugus County, they

165
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 1: got snow overnight because that's where the snow warning was.

166
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: Right now, it shifts to Buffalo there as we look

167
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: at the stadium, that is a tarp covering the field,

168
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,439
Speaker 1: obviously for the snowfall that is anticipated. But as you

169
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 1: can see on the seats, there is no accumulation of

170
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,559
Speaker 1: any kind here in Orchard Park as we speak. I'll

171
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: say this right now, it's cold. We were out watching

172
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: practical Oh it's snowmaking weather. I was like, ole, baby,

173
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: it was cold. We're both of us got hoodies on it.

174
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: I'm not going anywhere and it's cold. I got my

175
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: Arctic here today. But it's um yeah, I think here's

176
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 1: my here. What I'm gut feeling. I don't we don't

177
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: have any information. We don't know anything about anything but

178
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 1: our experience of being here for three decades and being

179
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: through the Indianapolis Snow Game and Snovember and all of

180
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: that stuff. This is a game. The game's gonna take place,

181
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 1: and it's gonna go off right at one o'clock and there,

182
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 1: and there'll be fans in the stands. And just so

183
00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 1: everybody knows, Friday is being forecast by the meteorologists as

184
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 1: the worst day of the snow event. It's going to

185
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: last into Saturday, but Friday is when the heaviest amounts

186
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: of snowfall are supposed to happen. Two to three inches

187
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: an hour, that kind of stuff. And I'm telling you,

188
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: most of the models are saying twenty three to twenty

189
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 1: four inches in the heaviest snow bands. You know, these

190
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 1: national media outlets that are taken it and running with

191
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: it and saying four feet six feet. We're not seeing

192
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: that right now. We're seeing two feet at the top end.

193
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:39,319
Speaker 1: Bait there. We're gonna get snow over the weekend. We're

194
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: gonna get It's gonna start sometime tonight or tomorrow, I

195
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,839
Speaker 1: don't you know, and it's gonna go all the way

196
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: till early Saturday, and then we'll see what happens. We'll reset.

197
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,439
Speaker 1: And the team is practicing outside on their grass field

198
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: today to get used to the elements because it is windy.

199
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: As we said, there are some snow squalls going on

200
00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: right now, flurries on and off, but nothing they can't

201
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: practice in, and so they're outside practicing today. And as

202
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 1: time for your Bill's practice update, presented by Lee com

203
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: your Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. And as we

204
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: told you yesterday, there were five players who miss practice

205
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: due to illness, So here's your illness update. Those five

206
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: players who miss due to illness yesterday were Reggie Gilliam,

207
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 1: Jordan Phillips, Tim Settle, Matt Milano, and Cam Lewis. Here

208
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 1: on Thursday, Matt Milano was back practicing, and so too

209
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 1: is Tim Settle, although we'll have to see his level

210
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,679
Speaker 1: of participation because Tim Settle did not have pads on

211
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: for practice today and it is a padded practice, so

212
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: he might be limited. But he was back, as was

213
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: Matt Milano and Reggie Gilliam, who was back ready to

214
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 1: practice after missing yesterday due to illness. Still not in attendance,

215
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: presumably due to the same illness. Cam Lewis and Jordan Phillips,

216
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 1: so we'll have to wait for the Thursday injury report

217
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: to see exactly what's going on with those two guys

218
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 1: and whether or not they did in fact miss a

219
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: second day of practice, but they were not out there

220
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 1: during the media viewing portion of practice. Other injury notes

221
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: to mention Tremaine Edmonds not practicing for a second straight day,

222
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 1: as well as Greg Rousseau and Jake Kumero. Rousseau and

223
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 1: Kumarro have week to week ankle injuries. Edmonds is dealing

224
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 1: with a groin injury considered day today but not practicing

225
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 1: at least was not out there during the media viewing

226
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: portion of practice again today. And then a new addition

227
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 1: to the injury report ed Oliver. He was out there

228
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: with his teammates doing stretch, but he was not dressed

229
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: for practice, no pads, no helmet. So we'll have to

230
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 1: find out what that's about when the Thursday injury report

231
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 1: comes out later this afternoon. So those are your Bills

232
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: practice updates, presented by your Lake Erie constbossly of Pathic Medicine.

233
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 1: If you start getting into what this game might look like,

234
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: if if it's a horrible weather game, it obviously levels

235
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: the playing field. You got. You know, the Bills offense

236
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 1: is number two in the league, scoring and all that.

237
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: The Cleveland defense is thirty first in the league and

238
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: points allowed. That's gonna narrow that gap, right, that's what

239
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: you worry about as a as a Bills fan. The

240
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 1: Bills are first in yards per play first, and third

241
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: down percentage fifth and big plays per game. Cleveland is

242
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: you know, thirty first. They're twenty fifth in yards per

243
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: play eighteenth and your third down conversion thirtieth and big

244
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: plays allowed. So it's gonna even the playing field. That's

245
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: that's what you worry about. When you have a really

246
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,439
Speaker 1: good team, anything that makes you go out of the

247
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: ordinary and your play calling, play selection, what players are

248
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: able to do it, it's a problem. And the Bills

249
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: are a really good team going into a bad weather game,

250
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: so it's it's never any fun. I mean, the players

251
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: might enjoy it. It's a lot of fun to play

252
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: and stuff bad weather, but I think it's a concern.

253
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,320
Speaker 1: Take if you're you know, it was hard to score points.

254
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,959
Speaker 1: I listened to people feel like if there's snow on

255
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 1: the field and it's actually and you know, accumulating snow

256
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: on the field and it's actively snowing, advantage Browns because

257
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: of their run game. I would submit Josh Allen runs

258
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: the football pretty well. Nick Chubb. I was listening to

259
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: his press conference with the Cleveland media yesterday. He has

260
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: never played in snow. Obviously, he's a University of Georgia product,

261
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 1: he is a Georgia native born and raised. He has

262
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: seen snow, but he has never played in snow. So

263
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: he said, I'm just gonna have to take it as

264
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: it comes. If in fact, there is snow on the ground,

265
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: it's accumulating, it's on the field, etc. But I don't

266
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 1: know that that's going to be the case. As we

267
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: said earlier, the snow event here that his forecast for

268
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: tonight into Friday is supposed to stop by Saturday, and

269
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: that should, conceivably without any more significant snowfall, give the

270
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: stadium opscrew enough time to clear snow from the field

271
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: and have the field ready to roll on Sunday at

272
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: one o'clock. So that's what we're anticipating. We'll obviously keep

273
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: you updated not only today but tomorrow when the snow

274
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 1: should be falling. The highest snow total that I've seen

275
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: forecasted is possibly three feet in the heaviest snow band

276
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 1: areas I've seen nothing over that, So to me, that's

277
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: stuff that people in our area can handle without so

278
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: much as a blink of the eye. So that's kind

279
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: of where I'm at on that. I don't know if

280
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 1: you feel differently, Steve, but no, I mean that. I

281
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: mean it's never easy and it's gonna take, you know,

282
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: a yeoman's effort by everybody who's doing the snow removal

283
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 1: all that, and we'll have to have, you know, the theory.

284
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: There's a lot of heavy equipment here. I'm just gonna

285
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: say that, But you know, you got to have people

286
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 1: to do it and experience people, and they should have

287
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: some guys. Hasn't been that long since the last time

288
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: they had to do it. So we'll see one other

289
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: roster transaction to bring you up to speed on the

290
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: Bills signed defensive end Kingsley Jonathan back to the practice

291
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: squad and released veteran offensive line in Greg Man's from

292
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 1: the practice squad. If you remember, Kingsley Jonathan was an

293
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: undrafted rookie out of Syracuse. He was with the Bills

294
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: through the course of the off season, and he was

295
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: signed to the team's practice squad at the beginning of

296
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: the season. But he was taken off of the Bills

297
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: practice squad signed away to the active roster by the

298
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears, but then the Bears just released him this

299
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: past week, so the Bills scooped him up put him

300
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: back on their practice squad. Today released Greg Man's to

301
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 1: create room for him on the practice squad for Jonathan

302
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: So another pass rusher back in the fold for the Bills.

303
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: I know they liked some of the flashes of ability

304
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 1: that he demonstrated, so pretty good that he's back in

305
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 1: the fold. I know they wanted to develop him further,

306
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 1: so an opportunity for them to do that as a rookie,

307
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: and you know, he gets to gain some experience. Other

308
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:06,400
Speaker 1: news around the NFL and around the NFL every week

309
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: is presented by kalid to Health, the official healthcare system

310
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: of the Buffalo Bills. It looks like Jamar Chase, who

311
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: has come trying to return from a hip injury, is

312
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: targeting week twelve to do that, So not this week,

313
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 1: but next week for the Bengals number one wide out

314
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: as a big loss in their lineup, obviously on the

315
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: offensive side of the ball, so we'll see if he

316
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 1: can stick to that timetable. And come back. The Rams

317
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: Steve are expecting quarterback Matthew Stafford to clear concussion protocol

318
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: and be ready to play against the Saints on Sunday.

319
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,919
Speaker 1: And speaking of the Saints, they are sticking with Andy

320
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,120
Speaker 1: Dalton as they're starting quarterback. They are not going back

321
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 1: to Jamis Winston. Winston apparently has lost his job to injury.

322
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: You know, suffers an injury and then loses this job

323
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 1: in the process. Andy Dalton threw two picks last week,

324
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 1: so the calls were going up, hey to put Winston

325
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 1: back in. You know, if this guy's not doing it,

326
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: go to the other guy. If that guy go to

327
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,919
Speaker 1: the other guy. Does that surprise you that they're staying

328
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: with Dalton. Yeah, I don't think that it matters all

329
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: that much. And the fact that Dalton threw a couple

330
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 1: of picks kind of doesn't flow with this. But Jameis Winston,

331
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: that's always been the knock on him is his turnovers.

332
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: But I got this guy turning the Red Rifles turning

333
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: it over too. You got a defensive minded head coach

334
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 1: that may go into this where he says, listen, I

335
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,680
Speaker 1: don't well and their defense hasn't performed up to expectations either. Yeah,

336
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 1: so it's all gone sideways in New Orleans and I

337
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 1: don't see it getting any better, not to the point

338
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: where they're gonna be able to contend for a playoff spot.

339
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: But maybe they go on a run. I don't division

340
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,879
Speaker 1: is not real. Well, no, but Tampa is going to

341
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 1: win the division. I think we can all comfortably say

342
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: at this point in time, they've kind of come out

343
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: of their funk and they're playing better. Thursday Night Football

344
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: Titans Packers, and it looks like the Packers are going

345
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: to get wide receive a Randall Cobb back in the lineup.

346
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: He is expected to be activated from injured reserve and

347
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 1: play tonight against the Titans. So that's a welcome return

348
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: a veteran back in the lineup at the receiving position

349
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: for the Green Bay Packers. You gotta believe Aaron Rodgers

350
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 1: is happy about that. He was like campaigning for them

351
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,120
Speaker 1: to bring him back to the roster last year if

352
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 1: you remember, and then they did in fact sign him

353
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: to kind of appease the MVP. So it looks like

354
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 1: he will be up and dressed to play tonight for

355
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: the Packers against the Titans. And I gotta tell you

356
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: right now, wouldn't mind if the Packers beat the Titans.

357
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: That would help the Bills obviously, Yes, it would in

358
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 1: the AFC conference race, because it would not only help

359
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 1: in terms of worsening the Titans overall record, it would

360
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: give the Bills a common game opponent that they have

361
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: a win against and the Titans would have a loss

362
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: against in the Packers. Yeah, that's big, that's big because

363
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,239
Speaker 1: the way this is another for the Packers tonight, if

364
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: you're a Bills fan, it's gonna be another season where

365
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a ton of teams right there for

366
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: the one seed or the two seed or home playoff

367
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: games and all that. And then we were talking about

368
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: this yesterday, Steve. The Washington Commanders had a decision to

369
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 1: make as to who their starting quarterback was going to

370
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 1: be going forward, with Carson Wentz healthy enough coming off

371
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: a ring finger injury on his throwing hand to play.

372
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 1: He was the starter before he got injured, but Taylor

373
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:25,639
Speaker 1: Heineke just beat the undefeated Eagles on Monday night, and

374
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,640
Speaker 1: head coach Ron Rivera has decided that they are going

375
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: to start Taylor Heineck again this week against the Texans

376
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: and playing against that Texans defense, he should have some success.

377
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: If Washington takes care of business and wins, it's logical

378
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: to think that Heineck will start the next week, right,

379
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,719
Speaker 1: I mean, how do you, yeah, exactly, how do you

380
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,120
Speaker 1: beat the only undefeated team in the league at eight

381
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: no in the Philadelphia Eagles with Jalen Hurts playing great

382
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 1: and their defense playing great, the Philadelphia Eagles flying high?

383
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 1: You beat him with Taylor Heineke. How do you think

384
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 1: you're not going to go to Houston and beat Davis Mills.

385
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 1: I don't know how to sit him down again right

386
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 1: after beating that team. You got it? So he I

387
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: think he keeps playing as long as they keep winning.

388
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 1: That's probably how it's going to go, right or Yeah,

389
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 1: I don't know how long is leash will be. I

390
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:11,719
Speaker 1: don't know the inner works at least as long as

391
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,680
Speaker 1: he keeps winning. Sure, if he keeps winning, I'm thinking

392
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: about what if he has a bad half? Oh, I

393
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: see what you're saying. You know, um Oh, I think

394
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 1: if they're still winning the game and he has a

395
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,680
Speaker 1: bad half, he's probably still playing. But you never know.

396
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,919
Speaker 1: I mean they're in the race now, so that's right.

397
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: If Ron Rivera sees it going the wrong way and

398
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: it could cost him the game, yeah, I could see

399
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 1: him making a switch. That's a good point that you

400
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 1: bring up, Steve. Well, they're kind of in it. They're

401
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 1: five and five, they're half came out of the last

402
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: playoff spot, right, but they're fourth in their division. I

403
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 1: mean they're they're like the Patriots in the in the

404
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 1: AFC East, every team in that him, the NFC East,

405
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: AFC East are just beating people. Yeah, every boat, all

406
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 1: of them. This was actually in our notes this week, Steve.

407
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: There have been three seasons, because we were talking about

408
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,880
Speaker 1: this yesterday. Right now, all four AFC East teams would

409
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: make the playoffs at the season ended today, and three

410
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: of the four teams in the NFC East would make

411
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 1: the playoffs, with Washington just a half game out of

412
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 1: the last playoff spot. So there have been three seasons

413
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 1: in which four teams or more because in the old

414
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 1: days there used to be five teams in eastvision if

415
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: you remember, there have been three seasons in which four

416
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 1: plus teams from a single division made the playoffs. Nineteen

417
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 1: eighty eight, the AFC East, everybody made the playoffs except

418
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 1: for Indie because they had five teams, but four teams

419
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 1: made the playoffs in eighty eight from the AFC or sorry,

420
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 1: ninety eight from the AFC East, the Jets, the Dolphins,

421
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: the Bills, and New England. As a matter of fact,

422
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: that year, the Bills came back from an owen three

423
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 1: start to make the playoffs at ten and six. Nineteen

424
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: ninety seven, the NFC Central, which back then was Green Bay, Tampa, Bay, Detroit,

425
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 1: and Minnesota made the playoffs. Chicago did not. And in

426
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety four the NFC Central again Minnesota, Green Bay, Detroit,

427
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: Chicago made the playoffs, Tampa did not. So right now

428
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 1: you're AFC East and NFC East standings. Every team has

429
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 1: at least a five hundred record or better. Pretty crazy.

430
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 1: Seven of the eight teams in playoff position. As we mentioned,

431
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 1: the last time all four teams in a single division

432
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 1: were above five hundred at the end of week ten,

433
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 1: like the NFC East is right now, was the twenty

434
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: sixteen NFC East. There's the same division six years ago. Yeah,

435
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: it's pretty crazy. And now they got two divisions sitting

436
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 1: there with the AFC and the NFC East. Yes, that's

437
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: it's pretty amazing, And I think that, you know, one

438
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: of the by products, so that is the fact that

439
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 1: these teams haven't played each other yet. The Bills, you know, yeah,

440
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 1: I think, as you said earlier, the Bills got to

441
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 1: run the table in that division just by virtue of

442
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 1: the fact that they're hitting each other. They're gonna be

443
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,479
Speaker 1: playing each other, gonna be knocking each other off. And

444
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,439
Speaker 1: so if some team kind of hits the kids here,

445
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 1: they are going to slip below five hundred and probably

446
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:04,959
Speaker 1: out of the playoff breaks. Certainly in the AFC, you're

447
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 1: under five hundred. In the AFC, you don't have a chance. So, yeah,

448
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,639
Speaker 1: these division games are going to be gigantic. It is.

449
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 1: It is Buffalo's road to the division title. Winning their

450
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: four remaining division games. Gotta do it. There's really no

451
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:23,239
Speaker 1: ifans or butts about it. You gotta win all your

452
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: division games they're left. I mean, that's that's the way

453
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,199
Speaker 1: you got to think about it right now. In Week eleven,

454
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: certainly there's a ton of permutations because these teams all

455
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: have to play each other as well. The Jets, the Dolphins,

456
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,640
Speaker 1: and the Patriots all have to play each other as well,

457
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: So there'll be much the same in the NFC, right

458
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 1: they can knock each other down and knock each other

459
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 1: out so that you may not have to do it.

460
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,159
Speaker 1: But from right here, sitting here, at this point of

461
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: the season, that's a must. Yeah, it's a must. You're

462
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,919
Speaker 1: o and two in the division. Got some ground to

463
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: make up for sure, because right now you don't have

464
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 1: head to head tiebreakers on the Dolphins or the Jets.

465
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: So yeah, you got to win your remaining division games,

466
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 1: all four of them. Sweep New England, beat the Jets,

467
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 1: beat the Dolphins. Got to do it and finish four

468
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 1: and two in the division if you want to have

469
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 1: a chance of winning the AFC East. Got a full

470
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,760

478
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,679
Speaker 1: me get this straight. We're gonna have three Wall of

479

480
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,919
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. That's a pretty good lineup. I'd say, ye,

481
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,719
Speaker 1: Shabby was Thursday in week eleven, Daryl would have been here.

482
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 1: He's visiting home in Cleveland. I'm yeah, so yeah, we're

Speaker 1: gonna have him on zoom. He's got to be on zoom,

484
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 1: but he's got I gotta get on the say, bro,

485
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 1: you gotta get in down sooner than late. Yeah, you

486
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: might want to leave and get He could drive though

487
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: from there if you had to drive, but yeah, driving

488
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: might be more treacherous than flying at this point. Absolutely.

489
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: I mean, anybody that's ever done that. I ninety Corridor

490
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,119
Speaker 1: from Cleveland to Buffalo, it's bad. Erie's the worst stretch.

491
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: It's bad. Western Pa. Man bad, bad, bad down there

492
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: from Roan, Pennsylvania for a south in Verdonia to north

493
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 1: and south of Erie. You're in deep trouble. You gotta

494
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: it is unrelenting over there. It's bad. The lake effects.

495
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 1: If you've ever driven through a lake effect snowstorm on

496
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 1: the ninety in Western Pa there on that stretch between

497
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:47,360
Speaker 1: Ohio and New York, stated that will that will harden

498
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,199
Speaker 1: and give you experience as a bad weather driver like

499
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 1: you've never had before. Yeah. I mean, the only people

500
00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: that might have better bad driving experience than you our

501
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 1: mountain truckers. You know what I mean. That's about it,

502
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 1: Ice road truckers, Ice road truckers. That's what I was

503
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 1: thinking about. Thanks. Yeah, that's um which is a heck

504
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 1: of a show. So Daryl's got to get in town

505
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: as we'll give him the men memo at two thirty.

506
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: We're gonna hey, you got a plan to get in

507
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 1: here because you're better hurry. Yeah, Yeah, everybody's at the house.

00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 1: You can come over. Ye tell him he can stay

509
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 1: from everybody's stayed in my mouth. He may have to

510
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: bring his own cot at this rate though. That's a

511
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: good point. We are going to step aside here so

512
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 1: we can give enough time to our ESPN Fantasy football

513
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 1: guru in the next segment, Field Yates, who's going to

514
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 1: provide us with his ultimate fantasy lineup for Week eleven,

515
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 1: which as always is presented by fan Duel. We'll check

516
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,919
Speaker 1: in with Field next here on one Bills Live presented

517
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 1: by Kalida Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right, here,

518
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 1: we are one Bills Live on a Thursday. Snow not

519
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 1: quite flying yet here in Western New York, but it

520
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 1: will be in due course. But we're not talking about

521
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,439
Speaker 1: that right now. What we are talking about is putting

522
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,199
Speaker 1: together your ultimate fantasy lineup with ESPN dot Com or

523
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 1: ESPN's Fantasy football guru, Field Yates joining us here for

524
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:24,360
Speaker 1: Week eleven and his ultimate fantasy lineup, presented by fan

525
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: Duel make every moment more. Field, you got an all

526
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,120
Speaker 1: star lineup for us this week? I think so, gentlemen.

527
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 1: I've got a lineup that can play in any weather,

528
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,880
Speaker 1: whether it's four hours or four feet of snow, or

529
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: one hundred degrees and one hundred percent humidity. This lineup

530
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 1: has the winning mix. All right, all right, let's hear.

531
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: Let's start with a quarterback, Joe Burrows. That's right, yep.

532
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow gets the call here at starting quarterback, and

533
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 1: he faces a familiar foe in the Pittsburgh Steelers, who

534
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 1: had Joe's number all the way back in Week one.

535
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: May force five turnovers. It was the worst day of

536
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 1: his young career by far. I think he bounces back.

537
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 1: We'll see whether or not Manka Fitzpatrick is available. If

538
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 1: he's not, that's certainly a big loss, but the Steelers

539
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 1: really struggle to that cornerback spot. I expect they bounce

540
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 1: back effort for Joe Burrow against Pittsburgh on Sunday. All right, now,

541
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: running back wise, you do have some guys that I

542
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: could see grinding it out in snowy conditions. Not that

543
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 1: they'll be facing that since one of them is in

544
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 1: Houston and the other one is in New England. I

545
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 1: don't think there's snow forecast up there. You're kind of

546
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 1: up that way. But you got some bruisers at the

547
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 1: running back position this week. Lets yeah, let's start with

548
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: Brian Robinson for the Commanders, who normally I try to

549
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 1: avoid because he has such a limited role in the

550
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 1: passing game. That being said, this week is a unique

551
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: exception because the Texans are by far the worst run

552
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 1: defense in the NFL. Like it's not even close between

553
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: them and the team that ranks thirty first. We're talking

554
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: about a thirty yard per game differenced as far as

555
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: rush yards allowed for the Houston Texans. So good opportunity

556
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: for Brian Robinson and that Commander's offense to once again

557
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: control the game on the ground. He had a big

558
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: game this past weekend, at least in terms of volume,

559
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: with twenty eight carries plus a touchdown. Second running back

560
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 1: slot goes to vermondre Stevenson, and he's kind of emerged

561
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: as the go to Patriots back. Oftentimes they have been

562
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 1: much more of a committee, but he is much more

563
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,160
Speaker 1: of the man right now in the Patriots backfield, and

564
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: not just the lead ball carrier, but also a very

565
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 1: good pass catcher, which helps against a Jets defense that's

566
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 1: very very good along the defensive line. And then always,

567
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 1: I'm always fascinated to watch the three wide receivers you

568
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: pick weekend week out. Sometimes you pair them up with

569
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: your quarterbacks. Sometimes it's all about the matchup with the dbs,

570
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: and this one you've got one guy with Joe Burrow

571
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: your quarterback, and then the rest you win a different direction.

572
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 1: That's right, So we'll stack T Higgins with Joe Burrow

573
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 1: operating under the presumption there will not be Jamar Chase

574
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 1: in the lineup this Sunday. Sounds like he's a long

575
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 1: shot at best to play for Cincinnati. Higgins steps into

576
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: that number one wide receiver role against a Steelers secondary

577
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 1: that I just mentioned him a few minutes ago. Very vulnerable.

578
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: They're a Finnit cornerback because of both injuries and frankly,

579
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 1: lack of talents. Meanwhile, the number two wide receiver in

580
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: this lineup is Courtland Sutton for the Broncos, who I

581
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 1: do not necessarily think that we will see Jerry Judy

582
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Raiders secondary also quite vulnerable, don't have a

583
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: ton of talent yet and that Raider's back end. They've

584
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 1: been better up front at least a little bit, but frankly,

585
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 1: the Raiders defense has been bad across really every metric.

586
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 1: And the last one is Adam Feeling, a guy who

587
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: just keeps raking in the volume. He's priced just six

588
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: thousand dollars against the Cowboys, and we figure it'll be

589
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 1: a lot of Stefan's younger brother, Treyvon Diggs covering Justin Jefferson,

590
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 1: which should open up some opportunities for Adam Feeling. The

591
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 1: Cowboys recently had some depth tested at the cornerback spot,

592
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 1: so wouldn't surprise me if Minnesota is able to move

593
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,440
Speaker 1: the football effectively, that game will not be impacted by

594
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: weather as it is being played inside Minnesota's dope. Your

595
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 1: tight end pick is a guy that people are looking

596
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: for around this time of year, especially, you know, if

597
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: they've got an injury at the tight end position, a

598
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 1: guy that is thrust into the number one role due

599
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: to an injury to a starter. I know one of

600
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,959
Speaker 1: my buddies picked this guy up last week and he

601
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 1: wasn't disappointed. Yeah, it is Foster Moreau who you're referring to. Brownie,

602
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 1: and Darren Waller's out for at least three more games

603
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: because of a hamstring injury, and Foster Morrow played basically

604
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: every snap last week in Waller's absence. He did find

605
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 1: the end zone. Obviously, the Broncos are very very good

606
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 1: in the secondary. One would expect though, that Denver is

607
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 1: going to allocate most of its resources to Davante Adams. Right.

608
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 1: Adams and Patrick Tretan the second of the best individual

609
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: matchups of the weekend, so Foster Morrow could be busy

610
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: price at five thousand, six hundred dollars, which leads us

611
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: right into our final two players, including a plex. It's

612
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams and the Lions are a tricky one right now, guys,

613
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 1: because Jamal has been probably the better running back for

614
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 1: fantasy this season than DeAndre Swift. Because he's been healthy. Recently, though,

615
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 1: Swift has returned to the lineup, but over the past

616
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 1: two games he played nine snaps and then eighteen snaps

617
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 1: as he continues to be load managed because of both

618
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: shoulder and ankle injuries. So it wouldn't surprise me if

619
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams once again leads them in rushing attempts on Sunday.

620
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 1: Minimal value in the passing game, but because of fan duel,

621
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 1: scoring doesn't impact things as much. They play the Giants.

622
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: That game is in New York. I like to speaking

623
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 1: of the yeah right, yeah, you took the Giant Stephens,

624
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 1: but this Jamal Williams, because the Giants aren't going to

625
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 1: run off and leave the Detroit Lions. Their run game

626
00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 1: is still going to be a factor. Late in that game,

627
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: Jamal wins might even get more opportunities because of the matchup. Correct,

628
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 1: that's right, Steve. Because the Giants, they've won a lot

629
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 1: of games this year. They're one of the best, if

630
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 1: not the best, feel good stories of the season at

631
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,800
Speaker 1: seven and two, But they don't win games thirty one seven.

632
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 1: They win games twenty to sixteen or you know once

633
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: four games? Is really the name or the nature of

634
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 1: their business. So I think that the Lions, even if

635
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: they don't win, keep it close, close enough for Jamal

636
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 1: Williams and even DeAndre Swift to get plenty of run.

637
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 1: But the Giants defense is also appealing to me because, well, frankly,

638
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 1: because they're cheap. Thirty eight hundred bucks A defensive has

639
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:42,280
Speaker 1: played probably above its weight so far this season. Wink Martindale,

640
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: their defensive coordinator, done a really good job for them

641
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,839
Speaker 1: in terms of maximizing talent. As a matter of fact,

642
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,280
Speaker 1: I'd say probably that's the theme of the Giants this season,

643
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,840
Speaker 1: is maximizing pieces on both sides of the ball. Brian

644
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 1: Day Ball Martindale doing a really nice job of extracting

645
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: as much as they can out of those three men

646
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: on the roster. So the Giants defense rounds out my

647
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: lineup again. Price at just thirty eight hundred dollars, All right, good,

648
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 1: I'll take that for a week. Eleven quick thoughts on

649
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 1: Bills Browns here Field. I know we kind of gave

650
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,280
Speaker 1: you a sneak peek at what we're expecting forecast wise

651
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:24,319
Speaker 1: on Sunday, the snow stopping, no accumulations, so it looks

652
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 1: like field conditions should be favorable. We know the run

653
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: defense deficiencies of the Bills the past couple of weeks,

654
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,160
Speaker 1: although I think they shared some things up last week

655
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:42,439
Speaker 1: one yard run by Dalvin Cook notwithstanding. But Chubb's coming

656
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: in here and he's probably even better than Dalvin Cook.

657
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:50,400
Speaker 1: So how you looking at this this game? I expect

658
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,319
Speaker 1: the Browns game plan to be the exact same thing

659
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,359
Speaker 1: that the Commander showed us on Monday night. If the

660
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 1: Browns have any chance, they're gonna have to be able

661
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: to ground control and win the turnover battle against Cleveland

662
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 1: like the Commanders did against Philly. They ran the ball

663
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:08,439
Speaker 1: forty nine times, they forced four turnovers. So I think

664
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 1: those are the two keys for Buffalo is lock up

665
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 1: the running game and protect the football. The Bills are

666
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 1: a far more talented team. And you know, I know

667
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 1: that Josh there was a lot of uncertainty about whether

668
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: he would start when an hour and a half before

669
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 1: a kickoff he still wasn't warming up. But if you

670
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 1: had not, if you had told me or hadn't told

671
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: me that Josh was dealing with something, I don't go

672
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: back and watch that game and think to myself, he

673
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 1: looks hurt. No, he looks fine to me. Three hundred

674
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,280
Speaker 1: and thirty passing yards in eighty four rushing yards. Obviously

675
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,879
Speaker 1: the turnovers were a problem, but you know Josh would

676
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:42,840
Speaker 1: be the first to tell you that those are a

677
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 1: plays he can be better on. And I don't get

678
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 1: the sensors or because of an elbow issue, So I

679
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 1: think the Bills take care hold serve. I think the

680
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: Browns are gonna try to slow the game down, but

681
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,120
Speaker 1: if they fall behind, they are simply not explosive enough

682
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 1: to keep up with Buffalo. Are there any axioms or

683
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 1: absolute that you look to when you're putting together a

684
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 1: fantasy lineup when you get a game like Buffalo where

685
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 1: the possibilities are you're playing in six inches of snow

686
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 1: or you know that they're not going to we don't think,

687
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 1: but that kind of thing. What kind of consideration do

688
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 1: you give that if we had a game that looked

689
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:26,720
Speaker 1: similar to the Indianapolis game of what was that twenty sorry,

690
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 1: then you might be benching every pass catcher because in

691
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 1: that game, and obviously different level of quarterback. Josh as

692
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 1: far superiors or the quarterbacks in that game. But you know,

693
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 1: the handoffs, handoffs, more handoffs, so you'd feel better about

694
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary, you'd feel better about I would think you'd

695
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 1: feel better about Nick Chubb, and you already feel really

696
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: good about Nick Chubb. But I would be looking to

697
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:52,359
Speaker 1: replace my pass catchers in that lineup because although it's

698
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,120
Speaker 1: a different time and different offenses of a different personnel,

699
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 1: I still don't think you're gonna be able to run

700
00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 1: us throw the football nearly as effectively as you would

701
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 1: under more normal circumstances, which, based off of the meteorological

702
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 1: report that you guys have shared with me, sounds like

703
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 1: it could be in play this week. Yeah, it's crazy.

704
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,280
Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor was injured could not play in that game.

705
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 1: Nathan Peterman started for the Bills, got a concussion. Joe

706
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: Webb finished the game at quarterback for the Bills and

707
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 1: the Colts quarterback was Jacoby Brissette, who will be back

708
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:33,240
Speaker 1: here on Sunday for the Browns. Pretty wild Field. Thanks

709
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 1: as always, man, We appreciate the Week eleven lineup. We

710
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 1: know everybody in the country is kind of hoping for

711
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,319
Speaker 1: a snow globe. Look here in Buffalo. I don't know

712
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: that we're going to be able to deliver, but stranger

713
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,279
Speaker 1: things have happened. As we know Western New York weather

714
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: can change in a minute, no question about a gentleman.

715
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: Stay safe up there, and yeah, I'm preparing for anything.

716
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 1: It could be ninety degrees by the time we get

717
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 1: to kick off on Sunday. That I can promise you

718
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 1: will not have Yeah, take the under. Yeah, take the

719
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 1: under on that for sure. Thanks Field, we appreciate it.

720
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 1: We'll catch up here next week. Thank you. All right.

721
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 1: That's Field Yates from ESPN, your fantasy football guru, with

722
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:15,360
Speaker 1: your ultimate fantasy lineup, presented by Fan Duel make every

723
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 1: moment more. I it's amazing, like you think about the

724
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: quarterback situation in that game in twenty seventeen, Steve, I mean,

725
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 1: Jathan Peterman has to start, he's concussed in the game

726
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: and has to be replaced by Joe Webb, and Joe

727
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 1: Webb threw that prayer to Deontay Thompson and the end

728
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:39,240
Speaker 1: of the game. You remember that in that game, Jacoby

729
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 1: Brissette was eleven for twenty two for sixty nine yards

730
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 1: in a t d Nathan Peterman five for ten fifty

731
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 1: seven yards and a TDAD the only touchdown pass in

732
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 1: the game, and Brissette had a touchdown pass and then

733
00:39:55,680 --> 00:40:00,120
Speaker 1: Webb was two of six for thirty five yards and

734
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: one interception HM for fourteen point six rating. But the

735
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: two of six, the one the long one was the

736
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: but Deontay Thompson the game got him down close form

737
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,120
Speaker 1: for a shady to run for the touchdown. And still

738
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 1: still the best running back I have ever seen in

739
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,839
Speaker 1: snow is Lashawn McCoy. And it's not even close. Yeah

740
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: he was. He is an unchanged runner on snow. I

741
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,680
Speaker 1: don't know how he does it. I still remember after

742
00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 1: the game I said to him, I said, why are

743
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: you able to cut almost the same way you are

744
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 1: on a dry field in snow And he said, I

745
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 1: don't know, It's just the way I run. I'll say this,

746
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:45,080
Speaker 1: he had no like technique to it. Yeah, but I

747
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:49,240
Speaker 1: get it. But I have never seen anybody play running

748
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: back in a game like I saw, and I've never

749
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 1: seen any a game like that. That's a one of

750
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 1: a in my lifetime. I've never seen he's cutting though, Like, yeah,

751
00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 1: he did really well. It's so rare for the NFL

752
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: to have to play a game in the kind of

753
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:06,800
Speaker 1: conditions In the Indianapolis Buffalo game twenty seventeen that we're

754
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 1: watching it kind of right here. It's it's once in

755
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:14,560
Speaker 1: my thirty six years have I seen a game like that.

756
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,319
Speaker 1: And that was it? Yeah, my son was we did.

757
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,120
Speaker 1: I guess there was one in Cleveland and I did

758
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 1: that game too. Yeah, they ate nothing game, the eight

759
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 1: nothing game. Field goals by and a safety. I still

760
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 1: can't believe. Um, oh, what was that kicker's name? Now,

761
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna remember it for Remember Phil Dawson, Thank

762
00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 1: you Jay. Phil Dawson had two field goals in that game.

763
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 1: And then the Bills had a safety because Brian Mormon

764
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,239
Speaker 1: had a snap thrown over over his head. Yeah, and

765
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 1: he just kicked it out of the back of the

766
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: end zones wisely. Um, that game was nuts, and I

767
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 1: remember Bills fans the next week were really angry that

768
00:41:55,680 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 1: Cleveland fans were pelting them with snowballs and got a

769
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 1: little ornery in the stands during that game. Yeah, Cleveland

770
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 1: went to the playoffs that year with Derek Anderson as

771
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:12,960
Speaker 1: their quarterback. How about that topsy turvy year? Pretty nuts.

772
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,759
Speaker 1: We take a break here. When we come back, we'll

773
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 1: have some more thoughts on this upcoming game. The weather,

774
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:24,720
Speaker 1: the division as it currently stands, and don't forget our

775
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:28,320
Speaker 1: number two in studio, the Hall of Famer Thurman Thomas.

776
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: All coming your way here on One Bill's Live presented

777
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 1: by Kalida Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right, it

778
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 1: is time now for us to turn to Soundbits presented

779
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 1: by Tim Horton's Josh Allen von Miller and others sound

780
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: off on the upcoming snowstorm that could have a major

781
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 1: impact for them getting to work on Friday and Saturday

782
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,800
Speaker 1: and maybe even the game on Sunday against the Browns.

783
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: Were playing a snow for real, it snows here. No, hey,

784
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,919
Speaker 1: it snows in Buffalo. They ain't tell me that. Well,

785
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 1: I thought they did not tell me that God does

786
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,359
Speaker 1: what God does, and snow is a part of us.

787
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:22,080
Speaker 1: So we're gonna use that snow to our full advantage

788
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,799
Speaker 1: and all shapes and forms and uh do whatever we

789
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 1: have to do to get it up. The all just

790
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 1: the snow was fun. The surfaces might be different. Got

791
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 1: to be ready for anything because the weather here it

792
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:34,440
Speaker 1: could be anything. It could be an inch in a

793
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:36,759
Speaker 1: second and then twenty like minutes later, it could be

794
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,120
Speaker 1: a foot and a half. They get a lot of

795
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: guys from Florida, a lot of guys from down south,

796
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,799
Speaker 1: outwest even that have never seen snow before. And um,

797
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 1: I'll tell you, our development team does a great job.

798
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,440
Speaker 1: They equip them with, um, you know, scrapers and iced

799
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:54,319
Speaker 1: de icing mechanisms. The weather has been buffalo, so I've

800
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 1: been embracing it and just embracing the culture here. Oh

801
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 1: you don't know anything about Buffalo weather. Buffalo weather is coming,

802
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 1: that's on the way. I have a lot of great

803
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,239
Speaker 1: resources here, like a putner and a great kicker who

804
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:07,359
Speaker 1: are experiencing this weather. Even last Thursday before the game,

805
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 1: I kind of got the lay of the land from

806
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:12,040
Speaker 1: our our special teams coach Smiley, and it's been great.

807
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: Just have a lot of help. So anything I don't know,

808
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,399
Speaker 1: I will know by Saturday or Sunday. And I've been

809
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 1: like I said, the guys here have been great, the

810
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 1: coaches there have been great, and I've had a lot

811
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 1: of inside infot that I knew I would not get

812
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,400
Speaker 1: just at another place. I mean, you got to prepare

813
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:26,839
Speaker 1: the same way no matter what it is. Obviously, you know,

814
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 1: as it comes closer to the game, as it becomes

815
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 1: a factor, you may think about a little bit, but

816
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 1: I mean you got to prepare like it's a normal

817
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:35,840
Speaker 1: game because no matter what the weather forecast is, you know,

818
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,399
Speaker 1: when that ball's not you gotta be ready. I mean,

819
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 1: I guess here could be an advantage, but I just

820
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:42,839
Speaker 1: remember partner in that game. I guess guys were changing

821
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,760
Speaker 1: their cleats into the regular studs so that they weren't slipping.

822
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:47,520
Speaker 1: I mean, we're just gonna see how it plays out.

823
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:50,120
Speaker 1: You know, KULD changes the way the game's played. I

824
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:51,919
Speaker 1: remember that's exactly what happened when we played the coach

825
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:54,359
Speaker 1: to change the entire cut, the entire way the game

826
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:56,399
Speaker 1: was played. They came out, a heavy personnel, ran the ball.

827
00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:58,279
Speaker 1: It was not a whole lot of cool schemes. It's

828
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 1: more just kind of zone schemes. It's trying get the

829
00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 1: traction and be able to get downhill. So you know,

830
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 1: we're excited about the opportunity to go play. Yeah. I

831
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:09,839
Speaker 1: remember vividly coming walking in after warm ups and then

832
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:11,840
Speaker 1: walking back out for the game, and I was walking

833
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:16,839
Speaker 1: next to pauls Ortizio, our security director, and I saw

834
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 1: the amount of snow already just in that amount of

835
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 1: time that had lapsed between going in and coming back out,

836
00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,040
Speaker 1: and I turned to him and I said, is this normal?

837
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,879
Speaker 1: And he goes no, and like I didn't have time

838
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:31,799
Speaker 1: to be like, well, like tell me more right, and

839
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,799
Speaker 1: then the rest was the rest. So I really think

840
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 1: the only guy that was here maybe you've been Dion

841
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 1: in Trey. Someone said it was like seven or eight

842
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 1: years to the date almost when that happened. So yeah, well,

843
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:48,800
Speaker 1: well I guess we'll find out. So that is Sound

844
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:52,399
Speaker 1: Bids presented by Tim Horton's and you heard a bunch

845
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:55,800
Speaker 1: of players there. Among them for our radio listeners, Nyheim Hines,

846
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 1: who was talking about how he's trying to get acclimated

847
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 1: as quickly as possible to the condition here since he's

848
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 1: been a dome player in Indy and he's an NC

849
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 1: State alum and a North Carolina native. We also heard

850
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer reminding us of what it was like in

851
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 1: the snow game in twenty seventeen that we were talking

852
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 1: to Field Yates about Bill's colts and how everybody was

853
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:22,839
Speaker 1: changing to long studs to get better footing in two

854
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:27,759
Speaker 1: inches of snow. So yeah, it's it'll be an adjustment

855
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,879
Speaker 1: if in fact there is measurable snowfall during the game,

856
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:34,240
Speaker 1: but the forecast is indicating that will not be the case.

857
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,320
Speaker 1: I think the biggest challenge will be getting to the stadium.

858
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:42,840
Speaker 1: And yeah, they're calling it um you know in spots

859
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 1: and we all know this way south and went in

860
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,799
Speaker 1: the snow where where the stuff hits is gonna be

861
00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 1: deep snow. But it's supposed to you know, it's gonna

862
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:52,760
Speaker 1: be knocked out by seven am. Now, I'm say reading

863
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:56,480
Speaker 1: seven am on Saturday, I'll start the day off with

864
00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 1: a snow snowblower and get at that's almost thirty hours

865
00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 1: of snow. Remove all time for the cruise out here.

866
00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:06,799
Speaker 1: Now they may and make sure you check before you

867
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:09,480
Speaker 1: set out for the stadium. They may, you know, hold

868
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:11,719
Speaker 1: the opening of the lots an hour or so later

869
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:14,440
Speaker 1: than they normally would time. Or they may open it

870
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 1: earlier too. Who it may open some and they may

871
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 1: open some before others. That kind of thing. So keep

872
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 1: your your check your bills app. Yeah, check the bills

873
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:27,640
Speaker 1: app to find out how that's going. And it may

874
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:29,479
Speaker 1: be a little bit of an abnormal thing and people

875
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,320
Speaker 1: might not be able to park in their normal spots

876
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:34,680
Speaker 1: because they got to put the snow somewhere. All those

877
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 1: houses on Orchard on twenty A and and around the

878
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:41,560
Speaker 1: you know the Big Tree and Abbot, some of those

879
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 1: places may not have snow removal of the kind they

880
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 1: need to have twenty five or thirty cars parking on

881
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 1: their property, you know what I mean. So you may

882
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:51,320
Speaker 1: be you might be parking. You might be parking someplace

883
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:56,720
Speaker 1: else this game than those normal mom and pop lots

884
00:47:56,760 --> 00:48:02,520
Speaker 1: that we all use. It's more about getting here and

885
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:05,719
Speaker 1: getting settled than I think it is the game. I

886
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:08,080
Speaker 1: think it's more about here's what let's do this Brown

887
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:09,839
Speaker 1: Fans come, you and me. We'll come in. We'll get

Speaker 1: We'll get it all set up. I gotta bring it home.

890
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:17,400
Speaker 1: Throw a tent over it, threw a tarp over it.

891
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 1: Wait the tarp down, and then we'll just come back

892
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,600
Speaker 1: and just get under the tarp on Sunday morning. Here,

893

00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:23,120
Speaker 1: of more things, uh, you know, outside of football now,

916
00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:25,719
Speaker 1: and you know, and being in the community. That's one

917
00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:28,080
Speaker 1: of the things that me and Patty and my kids

918
00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:30,839
Speaker 1: and my family and friends. That's something that we will

919
00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:34,239
Speaker 1: continue to do wherever we are. You know. Yeah, it's

920
00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,720
Speaker 1: just but Buffalo is home, man, and obviously with the

921
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:40,279
Speaker 1: events that happened on five fourteen has really kind of

922
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:45,040
Speaker 1: raised mistakes for everybody and to be associated with the

923
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:48,800
Speaker 1: community to do things to help people. Like I was

924
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:52,760
Speaker 1: out there with the rookies yesterday with the turkeys and everything.

925
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: I've been going to that for the past couple of

926
00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:56,960
Speaker 1: years and it's fun. It's fun because I got to

927
00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:58,879
Speaker 1: meet some of the rookies that I haven't met yet

928
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:01,719
Speaker 1: and just being with them and talking to him and

929
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:04,759
Speaker 1: just telling them, you know, this is what Buffalo was

930
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 1: all about, you know, giving back to the community. And

931
00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 1: it was great. Had a great time with Hayley Bean

932
00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:12,920
Speaker 1: was Jamie McDermott. I mean it was it was an awesome,

933
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:15,759
Speaker 1: awesome time. Yeah, Thurman had most of his family there.

934
00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:20,840
Speaker 1: Patty had a great speech after you guys received the award.

935
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:23,040
Speaker 1: My wife was like, that was a great speech because

936
00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 1: she not only encapsulated I think you know what it

937
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 1: means to your family to serve the community, but she

938
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:32,600
Speaker 1: kind of also wrapped up, you know, how the community

939
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:36,920
Speaker 1: has been affected by what happened on five fourteen, you know,

940
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 1: with the people that senselessly lost their lives in the

941
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,919
Speaker 1: top shooting on Jefferson. So yeah, she did. You guys

942
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,080
Speaker 1: did a great job. So kudos to you guys. I

943
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:48,960
Speaker 1: think it was good to see it. Thurham. We got

944
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,440
Speaker 1: some We got back to back losses here, man, the

945
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 1: hell's going on? I don't know. I'm looking at him

946
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:57,839
Speaker 1: from my standpoint, back to back losses, we can get

947
00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:01,759
Speaker 1: back to back wins going, I think, yeah, if that's

948
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:05,040
Speaker 1: what you look at it, and you have to, you

949
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,080
Speaker 1: have to. You can't. You can't fall back any farther

950
00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:09,239
Speaker 1: than what you are right now, because I think what

951
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:11,640
Speaker 1: the five teams in front of you. You've lost to

952
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 1: Miami and the Jets, but you've also beaten Kansas City, Tennessee,

953
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:22,040
Speaker 1: and Baltimore. So your division, you're looking pretty good. Yeah,

954
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: I think it's went in the division. But I think

955
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 1: like these next two games, because obviously he's playing Sunday

956
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 1: and then coming back playing on a Thursday, and you know,

957
00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:33,760
Speaker 1: they're the truck lines. Even they can be owing fifteen

958
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 1: or eight at this point or Thanksgiving Day, and I

959
00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:43,279
Speaker 1: think I play they get up. They played like exactly.

960
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 1: You know, I'm sure like Barry Sanders will be there,

961
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:48,719
Speaker 1: Megatron will be there, They'll bring out some of their

962
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:52,480
Speaker 1: guys that they've had on the Chris Fieldman and so yeah,

963
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:54,760
Speaker 1: but I think these next two games are really important.

964
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 1: You know what, Let's just get through this. Let's just

965
00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,520
Speaker 1: get through this. Obviously with playing Cleveland, you know, that's

966
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:02,040
Speaker 1: a game you want to look at first. It's a

967
00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:04,200
Speaker 1: really important stretch too, because if you could, if you

968
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:07,400
Speaker 1: could string them together, you got this game, you got

969
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:09,480
Speaker 1: a game Thursday, then the next Thursday, you got New

970
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 1: England and New England on a Thursday night game. If

971
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 1: you could, if you could run that table and then

972
00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:17,400
Speaker 1: get a little mini by Man, your friends get a

973
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:19,799
Speaker 1: chance to take a breath. Yeah, and you still have

974
00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,320
Speaker 1: to play Miami in the jet, so it's still an opportunity.

975
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:25,319
Speaker 1: I mean, that's Miami come up right after that. So

976
00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 1: it's Steve and I were talking about it. Steve and

977
00:53:28,680 --> 00:53:30,479
Speaker 1: I were talking about it on our podcast this week,

978
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:32,120
Speaker 1: Bills by the Numbers, which is out, by the way,

979
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:34,480
Speaker 1: if you want to check it out on your podcast platforms.

980
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:39,239
Speaker 1: Shameless plug there um, but really, if you look at

981
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:44,960
Speaker 1: it now, Therm the outlook at this point, the focus

982
00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:48,000
Speaker 1: has to be the division. You've got four division games left,

983
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:52,080
Speaker 1: you're owing two in the division right now. They pretty

984
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 1: much have to run that table. They got to run

985
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:57,359
Speaker 1: that table in the division now and win those four

986
00:53:57,400 --> 00:53:59,440
Speaker 1: division games that they have left if they want to

987
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:02,879
Speaker 1: win the divison. And I believe, Yeah, you're absolutely right

988
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:06,120
Speaker 1: about that. You're absolutely right about that. But then at

989
00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:08,359
Speaker 1: the same time, much to your point, which you said,

990
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,120
Speaker 1: you know they lost too, they could just as easily

991
00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:12,560
Speaker 1: win the next two in the snap of a finger.

992
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:15,600
Speaker 1: You know, after Week fourteen, this team was seven and

993
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:18,160
Speaker 1: six last year, I know, and then ripped off four

994
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:22,280
Speaker 1: in a row. Right, we still got eight games ago. Yeah,

995
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:24,879
Speaker 1: we still got to I love our chances. I love

996
00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:28,319
Speaker 1: our chances because, hey, look, the first five weeks of

997
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 1: the season are six. We were unstoppable. We were unstoppable.

998
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:34,719
Speaker 1: That's what we need to get back to. I was

999
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:38,360
Speaker 1: just thinking about, like at the start of the season,

1000
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,680
Speaker 1: where were the little dinks and donks to single tary.

1001
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:46,280
Speaker 1: Those are gone right now? Right, everything for this offense

1002
00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:48,920
Speaker 1: has changed so much. And even though in the last

1003
00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:51,879
Speaker 1: two games we've had the lead and let us slip

1004
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:54,600
Speaker 1: away how much do you see the changes in the

1005
00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:58,399
Speaker 1: offense tied to Josh's decision making? Is that the main

1006
00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:01,840
Speaker 1: reason we we've seen the change we have or do

1007
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:05,560
Speaker 1: you see some schematic things or match up things changing

1008
00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:07,719
Speaker 1: in the last couple of I think it's I think

1009
00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:10,279
Speaker 1: it's mostly. I think it's mostly with Josh. I really

1010
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,319
Speaker 1: do think it's mostly with Josh. I think you know,

1011
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 1: he's he's got to he got to a point where

1012
00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:17,880
Speaker 1: he was comfortable at doing the things that he was doing,

1013
00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:20,680
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, you get with the Jet

1014
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:24,480
Speaker 1: you got a pretty good head coach as a defensive coordinator.

1015
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:28,040
Speaker 1: That's some stuff. I mean, they drafted and did exactly

1016
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:30,319
Speaker 1: what the Bills did. They started from the back head,

1017
00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:33,640
Speaker 1: got two better and safety, drafted to rookie corners and

1018
00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:37,359
Speaker 1: got stronger eight man rush they got now with two

1019
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:41,640
Speaker 1: packages um and then the game last week. I mean

1020
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:47,160
Speaker 1: it's I think it's been Josh, and I think he

1021
00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:51,280
Speaker 1: knows that. I mean he trying to wait. I mean, yeah,

1022
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:54,200
Speaker 1: you get like a tenure a game or whatever, and

1023
00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:55,839
Speaker 1: all of a sudden in the stands, you know, people

1024
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 1: of hollywod MVP. You do that after you score a touchdown.

1025
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:01,520
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, don't do it. After you

1026
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:04,520
Speaker 1: do it for ten yards, I started screaming, MVP, MVP.

1027
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:08,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they were doing last Yeah. So I mean,

1028
00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:11,480
Speaker 1: just just let this guy just not be himself, but

1029
00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,719
Speaker 1: tell him like Josh And I think one of the

1030
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:16,680
Speaker 1: most important things that I think we're kind of missing

1031
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:19,520
Speaker 1: that I think Dabele used to do that with Josh

1032
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 1: when he would get in those kind of ruling back in.

1033
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:23,520
Speaker 1: I mean, doors is the first year a guy. I

1034
00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:27,319
Speaker 1: mean he's I mean he's been with him for three years.

1035
00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:30,319
Speaker 1: But how much has he said to Josh that would

1036
00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:32,719
Speaker 1: affect It's been Brian Dable And I think you know,

1037
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:34,799
Speaker 1: if you're in the room with Josh, you know, Josh

1038
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: looking at you like first year or coordinator. Yeah, I

1039
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:40,120
Speaker 1: got this buddy, no where everybody right yeah, so and

1040
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:42,960
Speaker 1: so Hey, Dorsey has to real that in man and

1041
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 1: I think he can. Well here's here's what I keep

1042
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:48,160
Speaker 1: going back to. Yeah, they lost two in a row.

1043
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:50,840
Speaker 1: I get it. The Jets played very good and a

1044
00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:52,360
Speaker 1: lot of teams would have lost to the Jets the

1045
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 1: way they played against the Bill. It's a good team,

1046
00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:57,200
Speaker 1: good effort by them. Tip your hat to him. Um,

1047
00:56:57,400 --> 00:57:00,840
Speaker 1: the Bills have lost three games by total of eight points,

1048
00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:07,480
Speaker 1: and the record of those teams is twenty one and seven,

1049
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,200
Speaker 1: So they've lost to three winning teams by a total

1050
00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:14,760
Speaker 1: of eight points. They are still the team we thought

1051
00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:17,160
Speaker 1: they were at the beginning of the year. Then nothing's changed.

1052
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:19,760
Speaker 1: You can say what you want about the injuries and

1053
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:22,000
Speaker 1: all of that, but they are the same team. If

1054
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,680
Speaker 1: they if and I said this earlier in this program

1055
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 1: today and I said it, Yester, I've been saying it

1056
00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:29,520
Speaker 1: every day, if they don't turn it over, there's not

1057
00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:32,480
Speaker 1: too many teams that can beat them. No, there's not

1058
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:35,960
Speaker 1: too many teams that can beat them, because they're that good. Um,

1059
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:38,880
Speaker 1: So that's when I talk about I just gotta remember.

1060
00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:42,800
Speaker 1: They just gotta remember who they're playing like it. They're

1061
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:44,960
Speaker 1: good football team. And I know it's easy for the

1062
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:48,120
Speaker 1: fans and even us in our little tech loop. You know,

1063
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:52,040
Speaker 1: you forget, you know how good they are. Um, they're

1064
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,280
Speaker 1: gonna be that good and they're gonna be that hard

1065
00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:55,840
Speaker 1: to beat. They are going to be that hard to

1066
00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:58,960
Speaker 1: be if they don't beat themselves. If you look at

1067
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:01,320
Speaker 1: their biggest opponent out of the picture, if you look

1068
00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:03,800
Speaker 1: at the power of rankings. Now, you know, power rankings

1069
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:07,320
Speaker 1: are still there. They're still right there. So the power

1070
00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:09,840
Speaker 1: of rankings are even saying we know how good you

1071
00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:12,160
Speaker 1: guys are because we haven't dropped you out of the

1072
00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:15,560
Speaker 1: top what six or seven or whatever it might be.

1073
00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 1: Because any other team, if they didn't start off the

1074
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:20,920
Speaker 1: way we did, they would probably be down in fifteen

1075
00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 1: and sixteen seventeen in the power of rankings. But this team, right,

1076
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:26,560
Speaker 1: I think guys, but I think all teams go through

1077
00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:30,080
Speaker 1: this right throughout the national football They all go through

1078
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:32,640
Speaker 1: some type of period of like, oh my god, I

1079
00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:35,320
Speaker 1: can't we can't do anything, right. Yeah. Vaughan actually brought

1080
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 1: it up this week or right after the game on Sunday.

1081
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:41,880
Speaker 1: He said, I get traded to the Rams. We lose

1082
00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:44,800
Speaker 1: three in a row. He goes, we're seven and four,

1083
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:49,720
Speaker 1: and then we fixed it, caught fire, go on the road,

1084
00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:52,600
Speaker 1: beat tamp in the playoffs, you know, come home, beat

1085
00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:54,600
Speaker 1: this team, you know, and bang they're in the Super Bowl.

1086
00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:57,840
Speaker 1: He said, you know, we kind of righted the ship

1087
00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:00,920
Speaker 1: and then we caught fire and we were like killing it.

1088
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:04,440
Speaker 1: I think he kind of believes that this team can

1089
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:09,200
Speaker 1: do the same thing. Much to your point, what do

1090
00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:13,920
Speaker 1: we make though of the possibility of Cleveland trying to

1091
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:17,520
Speaker 1: take the same approach at the New York Jets did

1092
00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:19,720
Speaker 1: two weeks ago. They have a running game that can

1093
00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:23,280
Speaker 1: support them in that fashion if their defense can show up,

1094
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:26,720
Speaker 1: which is a big if, because this Cleveland defense I

1095
00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:30,200
Speaker 1: think has been disappointing to a large degree. Browns fans

1096
00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:33,280
Speaker 1: were hoping, well, we got a rock solid defense. We

1097
00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:36,320
Speaker 1: don't get de Shaun back till week twelve, but we've

1098
00:59:36,360 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 1: got a rock solid defense. If they can hold us

1099
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:41,600
Speaker 1: in some games and we can stay around five hundred,

1100
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:45,120
Speaker 1: you know, Deshan comes back, we catch some fire, we

1101
00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 1: win some games, maybe we get to the playoffs. That's

1102
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:51,320
Speaker 1: out of the question now at three and six, But

1103
00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 1: they could play that kind of game, run chub and

1104
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:57,040
Speaker 1: then play solid defense and don't turn it over, and

1105
00:59:57,120 --> 01:00:01,200
Speaker 1: they probably feel like like Wash did last Monday night

1106
01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:03,920
Speaker 1: against the Eagle. They ran it forty nine times and

1107
01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:07,520
Speaker 1: didn't turn it over and then got four turnovers that helped.

1108
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:10,520
Speaker 1: And Lemons say, he's Cleveland gonna come in here and

1109
01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:13,120
Speaker 1: run the football. I mean, that's kind of what they're

1110
01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:15,800
Speaker 1: they built on. Even though there were three and six

1111
01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:18,280
Speaker 1: or three and seven, they are running the football. What

1112
01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:21,440
Speaker 1: is it that impressive about Chubb's game? Just you know,

1113
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:25,800
Speaker 1: from your running back perspective, the thing that impresses me.

1114
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:30,880
Speaker 1: He can do it inside or outside. And when you

1115
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,080
Speaker 1: have a guy that can that, what is he six?

1116
01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:39,880
Speaker 1: Who can run between the tackles and if he gets

1117
01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:41,400
Speaker 1: to the outside, I can take it to the house.

1118
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:43,800
Speaker 1: That's a day. And he can catch a couple of

1119
01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:46,800
Speaker 1: screen passes, although they do save some of that for

1120
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:51,440
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt. But this guy has it all. And I

1121
01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:53,840
Speaker 1: think what's really telling is that they do in the

1122
01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:55,960
Speaker 1: last couple of years, they do have a really decent

1123
01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:59,600
Speaker 1: offensive line. It's very good. It's very very good and

1124
01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:03,880
Speaker 1: dependent on whether I don't know how it's going to be,

1125
01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:09,960
Speaker 1: but I'm confident right now if Cleveland, We're gonna run

1126
01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:11,440
Speaker 1: the ball if the weather's going to be bad, and

1127
01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:14,280
Speaker 1: I think it's to our advantage. Derrick Henry said last

1128
01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:17,080
Speaker 1: week Nick Chubb is the best back in the league.

1129
01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:20,720
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry Henry said that, Yes, he did. I do

1130
01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:23,280
Speaker 1: remember that he said that. So I think that right

1131
01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:29,280
Speaker 1: there shows a lot about the pro The explosiveness of

1132
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:33,120
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb and what he's I think said Alabama guys

1133
01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:35,160
Speaker 1: saying that about a Georgia guy that's not happened. That

1134
01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:38,520
Speaker 1: he's got nine hundred yards rushing on one hundred and

1135
01:01:38,560 --> 01:01:41,760
Speaker 1: sixty and that's probably more than how many teams in

1136
01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:44,480
Speaker 1: the National Football League right now. He's at least he's

1137
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:49,080
Speaker 1: sixty giving it done, and they're and they're not. Yeah,

1138
01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:52,160
Speaker 1: they're the one. And the one thing that I've noticed

1139
01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 1: too is Bill's defense. One of the reasons and people

1140
01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:58,520
Speaker 1: fret over their run defense and at the time, like

1141
01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:01,000
Speaker 1: the last year, they give a big explosive play last week.

1142
01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:03,360
Speaker 1: Other than that, do a really nice job, but those

1143
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 1: you know, those runs count, Those big runs count. One

1144
01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:08,520
Speaker 1: of the things I've noticed about the Bills team is

1145
01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:12,280
Speaker 1: that we always talking about complimentary football, where your defense

1146
01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,080
Speaker 1: plays good, your offense please good. But one of the

1147
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:17,280
Speaker 1: benefits this defense has gotten is a fact that you know,

1148
01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:20,480
Speaker 1: last week, for instance against the Vikings, is twenty four

1149
01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:23,560
Speaker 1: ten at half. Yeah, I mean the Bills are the

1150
01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:27,440
Speaker 1: Bills are running it up on these teams and there

1151
01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:31,520
Speaker 1: is it's hard for other teams to kind of hang

1152
01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:33,560
Speaker 1: in there and keep handing it off and the Bills

1153
01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 1: play to that and you I talked to Leslie Frazier

1154
01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:37,760
Speaker 1: in the off season. He goes, how, you know, what

1155
01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:39,280
Speaker 1: do teams do? I mean, because they try and get

1156
01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:41,080
Speaker 1: you out of that nickel defense. He won't. He goes,

1157
01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:44,680
Speaker 1: I know, because I know he goes it really bothers guys,

1158
01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:48,280
Speaker 1: or we won't. They can't pry us a nickel. They

1159
01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:49,959
Speaker 1: want to try and get other people on the field,

1160
01:02:50,200 --> 01:02:52,760
Speaker 1: they don't do it. A little bit of that has

1161
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:54,760
Speaker 1: to go to Josh and the offense for giving them

1162
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,000
Speaker 1: the ability to know that sooner or later they're gonna

1163
01:02:57,000 --> 01:02:59,320
Speaker 1: have to. Like the Green Bay game, Yeah, by the

1164
01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:01,840
Speaker 1: time Green ain't got down close enough to scores like, yeah,

1165
01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:04,320
Speaker 1: go ahead and run it. We don't care because you

1166
01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:07,120
Speaker 1: run out of you just ran out of time. Yeah,

1167
01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:12,080
Speaker 1: So some of the run defense has to be given.

1168
01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:13,960
Speaker 1: The credit has to be given to Josh Allen and

1169
01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:18,240
Speaker 1: Steph Diggs in the offense. Yeah. Absolutely. I mean obviously,

1170
01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:21,000
Speaker 1: when you run the football, you're limited amount of chances

1171
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:22,760
Speaker 1: that the Bill's offensive giving there to go out there

1172
01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:25,760
Speaker 1: on the football field. But yeah, I mean, take your

1173
01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:28,240
Speaker 1: head after our offense. I mean, we've done what we're

1174
01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:31,400
Speaker 1: supposed to be doing. Just in the last two games,

1175
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:35,880
Speaker 1: we haven't completed the task of closing teams out. And

1176
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:39,880
Speaker 1: you can say as offense or defense or whatever, but hey, look,

1177
01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:42,760
Speaker 1: you're playing out there as a team. You got to

1178
01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:45,720
Speaker 1: know what's going on out there. And we very well

1179
01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:48,120
Speaker 1: it could be eight and one right now, very well

1180
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:49,880
Speaker 1: could be eight and one right now. We wouldn't even

1181
01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:52,880
Speaker 1: be having this conversation about, oh, they should run the

1182
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:57,240
Speaker 1: ball more real, Josh or whatever, because we should be

1183
01:03:57,240 --> 01:04:00,280
Speaker 1: eight and one. But right now. And it's interesting because

1184
01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:02,959
Speaker 1: the one victory I'm taking it for granted, you should

1185
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:04,560
Speaker 1: have won the Vikings game, and you should have win

1186
01:04:04,560 --> 01:04:07,640
Speaker 1: that first Miami game. The laws you think you probably

1187
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:11,840
Speaker 1: should have taken was the Jet game. Yeah, because that's

1188
01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:14,880
Speaker 1: the team to really play. They deserved it. In the

1189
01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:17,480
Speaker 1: Miami game is nine hundred degrees on our sideline and

1190
01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:19,400
Speaker 1: we got guys falling all over the places. We can't

1191
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:28,080
Speaker 1: even huddle up, went into we can't do that, and

1192
01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:30,600
Speaker 1: then and then for the Minnesota game, I mean, they

1193
01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:34,360
Speaker 1: had three plays to end it and all three of

1194
01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:38,800
Speaker 1: them went catastrophically wrong. So yeah, they could very well

1195
01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:42,600
Speaker 1: be eight and one. They're not. But that's how good

1196
01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:45,520
Speaker 1: they are. Then if they get and you know, they

1197
01:04:45,600 --> 01:04:49,000
Speaker 1: got to play like that. And so when we get it,

1198
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:52,040
Speaker 1: we come in here in these overreaction mondays. Whenever you know,

1199
01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:56,760
Speaker 1: I got buddy. You don't want to come out on Monday.

1200
01:04:56,760 --> 01:05:00,919
Speaker 1: No more, right, people come in, I got buddy of mine?

1201
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:03,120
Speaker 1: Is kind of jokingly, he goes, I'm done. I am done.

1202
01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:05,720
Speaker 1: The Sabers can't win the game. Done with pro sport.

1203
01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:09,040
Speaker 1: You know, the Bills can't win the game. The Sabers

1204
01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:10,680
Speaker 1: can't win it. I am done. I am not. I

1205
01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:13,240
Speaker 1: don't even watched golf because I'm done with pro sports.

1206
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:16,960
Speaker 1: I'm totally done, you know, kind of laughingly, but that

1207
01:05:17,160 --> 01:05:21,200
Speaker 1: was right. Yeah, the Bills aren't in a spot where

1208
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:23,920
Speaker 1: they even with two straight losses, to say, all right,

1209
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:26,040
Speaker 1: we need to do we need hold on it and

1210
01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:28,080
Speaker 1: we gotta do a B and C. And it's not

1211
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:30,080
Speaker 1: they just got to do what they do better. It's not.

1212
01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:32,200
Speaker 1: It's not one of those calls for hey, we even

1213
01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:35,200
Speaker 1: have players only meeting, it's not called a fan do

1214
01:05:35,280 --> 01:05:38,120
Speaker 1: that today. Hey, what about one of those meets where

1215
01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:40,720
Speaker 1: it's just players nobody. I'm like, no, you don't need

1216
01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:43,000
Speaker 1: that at this point, No, I think they're I think

1217
01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:46,560
Speaker 1: they're fine. Coach McDermott is probably like, yeah, things have

1218
01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:48,800
Speaker 1: not going well for us in the past two weeks,

1219
01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:51,080
Speaker 1: and he's probably been catching a lot of heat also too,

1220
01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:54,120
Speaker 1: But do you know what, I guarantee he knows less

1221
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 1: the Frasier, no random bean though that we still got

1222
01:05:57,520 --> 01:06:00,000
Speaker 1: one of the top league, top teams in the National

1223
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:01,840
Speaker 1: Football League, and we just need to turn around. I

1224
01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:04,600
Speaker 1: would say this. I did an interview. I saw an

1225
01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:08,520
Speaker 1: interview by Tony Dungee after they had lost m a

1226
01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:11,040
Speaker 1: championship playoff game, when Peyton Manning was there as they

1227
01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:13,000
Speaker 1: were going high and they everybody kind of had super

1228
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:15,000
Speaker 1: Bowl expectations. I think it might have been before they

1229
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:18,720
Speaker 1: won their Super Bowl. He's and they he was, you know,

1230
01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:21,720
Speaker 1: lost a playoff game and they were bummed, and you

1231
01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:23,760
Speaker 1: know how and he goes, he goes, what are you

1232
01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:25,560
Speaker 1: gonna do? How are you gonna get better? What goes

1233
01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:27,240
Speaker 1: he goes, We just need to do what we do,

1234
01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:30,240
Speaker 1: but just do it a little better. And that's that's

1235
01:06:30,280 --> 01:06:33,320
Speaker 1: the right philosophy. You gotta the Bills are who they are,

1236
01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:36,840
Speaker 1: and if they do what they do as well as

1237
01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:40,080
Speaker 1: they are able, capable of doing everything will work out

1238
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:43,120
Speaker 1: for itself in their favor. Let's talk about scoring points

1239
01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:46,240
Speaker 1: in the second half, which has been a problem. The

1240
01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:48,720
Speaker 1: last time they scored a second half touchdown was Week

1241
01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:51,760
Speaker 1: six of Kansas City, the game winning touchdown past the

1242
01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:55,360
Speaker 1: Dawson knocks. That's the last second half touchdown they've scored,

1243
01:06:56,440 --> 01:07:00,080
Speaker 1: is it. I don't know, if anything sticks out to you,

1244
01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:05,080
Speaker 1: Is it a matter of you go into the locker

1245
01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:08,240
Speaker 1: room in halftime. Obviously you might make some adjustments if

1246
01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:10,040
Speaker 1: you feel you need to. But the Bills usually have

1247
01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:12,680
Speaker 1: strong first halfs. Maybe they don't change all that much.

1248
01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:16,840
Speaker 1: The opponent changes because they're down on the scoreboard. That's

1249
01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:19,600
Speaker 1: the time when your staff has to readjust right. Once

1250
01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:22,040
Speaker 1: the third quarter begins. Oh, I don't know if that's

1251
01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:24,600
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to throw anybody under the bush. I'm

1252
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:28,640
Speaker 1: just openly wondering. Is it a readjustment that's not happening

1253
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:31,720
Speaker 1: there that's causing it, or is it just strictly the

1254
01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:35,240
Speaker 1: players just aren't execute and come quarter three, quarter four, well,

1255
01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:37,680
Speaker 1: I think you know, when we jump out to such

1256
01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:42,080
Speaker 1: a great start in the first half, I'm sure whoever

1257
01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:45,960
Speaker 1: defense is there they adjust, So we have to adjust.

1258
01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:48,040
Speaker 1: We can't just keep doing the same old thing. I

1259
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,880
Speaker 1: think we have to adjust in some way, shape or form.

1260
01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:55,920
Speaker 1: As an office, we have to adjust to whatever. I know,

1261
01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:58,920
Speaker 1: somebody sees it. Yeah, I was somebody sees it. On

1262
01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:02,120
Speaker 1: the football field, they're doing something totally different than they

1263
01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:04,280
Speaker 1: did in the first half. Then you have to understand it,

1264
01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:06,760
Speaker 1: and you have to be as an offensive side you

1265
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:10,120
Speaker 1: have to be prepared to say, Okay, we saw this

1266
01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:12,280
Speaker 1: in week three when they played so and so, this

1267
01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:14,200
Speaker 1: is what they're doing. So here are the players there,

1268
01:08:14,320 --> 01:08:16,479
Speaker 1: we need to start running there. All that stuff should

1269
01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:17,840
Speaker 1: be back in the back of your mind. Yeah. And

1270
01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:21,800
Speaker 1: I think too that even though it's been why I

1271
01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:24,040
Speaker 1: mean it's been the Packers, the Jets, and now the Vikings,

1272
01:08:24,040 --> 01:08:27,360
Speaker 1: that they haven't scored a second half touchdown. Um, I

1273
01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:31,320
Speaker 1: don't know that you can make it a generalizing statement

1274
01:08:31,360 --> 01:08:35,519
Speaker 1: as to why each game went that way. I think

1275
01:08:35,560 --> 01:08:38,639
Speaker 1: some of it had to do with the play, like

1276
01:08:38,760 --> 01:08:41,320
Speaker 1: you know, the interceptions, the turnovers. In the last couple

1277
01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:43,840
Speaker 1: of weeks, one of the constants that three game stretch

1278
01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:46,760
Speaker 1: that has a lot of breath and I don't know

1279
01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:48,640
Speaker 1: that that has so much to do with the adjustments

1280
01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:50,840
Speaker 1: of the coaching staff's making. Well that's why, that's why

1281
01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:53,280
Speaker 1: I put it to you guys. Maybe you can make that,

1282
01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:57,160
Speaker 1: make the argument maybe in the Packer game or whatever, um,

1283
01:08:57,800 --> 01:08:59,479
Speaker 1: when it was a little bit different, the Packers were

1284
01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:01,320
Speaker 1: doing some stuff. So I don't think there's even like

1285
01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:05,799
Speaker 1: one generalized reason why they've why these second half touchdowns

1286
01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:10,200
Speaker 1: have dried up for the Bills, except you know, first

1287
01:09:10,240 --> 01:09:13,200
Speaker 1: and form, even thermitals say this me as former players,

1288
01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:15,880
Speaker 1: you look at guys like us first. You look at

1289
01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:17,840
Speaker 1: the players first, like what's going on with these guys?

1290
01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:21,600
Speaker 1: Why haven't you executed? Because nobody's not playing on scoreing touchdowns?

1291
01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:24,559
Speaker 1: And then from there, if you've got guys who nobody's

1292
01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:27,479
Speaker 1: really playing bad or in whatever, and there's no egregious

1293
01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:29,080
Speaker 1: mistakes out there that you're going, oh, well, this is

1294
01:09:29,080 --> 01:09:31,400
Speaker 1: the reason or that's then you can look at the

1295
01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:33,600
Speaker 1: scheme and what are other teams are seeing. But I

1296
01:09:33,600 --> 01:09:36,280
Speaker 1: don't know that they're to that stage yet. I'm sure

1297
01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:40,879
Speaker 1: there's no way you can convince me that Ken Dorsey

1298
01:09:41,040 --> 01:09:44,800
Speaker 1: and the defensive and his staff, who watched Brian Dable

1299
01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:46,719
Speaker 1: do it for the last four years and are looking

1300
01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:50,439
Speaker 1: at at Leslie Fraser and the defensive side who are

1301
01:09:50,439 --> 01:09:54,360
Speaker 1: always changing things up, that they aren't doing the same thing. Yeah,

1302
01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:55,960
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, don't I don't want. I

1303
01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:58,639
Speaker 1: know it's taking a lot for granted, but I think

1304
01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:03,560
Speaker 1: that's a safe bet that they got that. That's the process,

1305
01:10:03,800 --> 01:10:05,760
Speaker 1: you know, that's the process. I mean, we're gonna have

1306
01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:08,080
Speaker 1: to see it here against Cleveland. Yeah, good weather or

1307
01:10:08,120 --> 01:10:11,839
Speaker 1: bad weather, We're gonna have to see better performances. First.

1308
01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:15,360
Speaker 1: I mean, if you can score a touchdown every quarter,

1309
01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:18,679
Speaker 1: twenty eight points, I've been nine times or ten out

1310
01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:21,080
Speaker 1: of ten times, we can win that football game. That's

1311
01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:24,160
Speaker 1: a touchdown the quarter. The last couple of games we

1312
01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:27,720
Speaker 1: haven't done that. A field goal, just points on the

1313
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:32,920
Speaker 1: board would be something better than turnovers in the red zone.

1314
01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:37,400
Speaker 1: The turnovers are the crusher. Can't you can't out play turnovers.

1315
01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:40,320
Speaker 1: Six of his last six, of Josh his last eight turnovers,

1316
01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:41,600
Speaker 1: they have been in the red zone. It's been in

1317
01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:44,000
Speaker 1: the red zone. I mean, I think he's leading the

1318
01:10:44,080 --> 01:10:47,280
Speaker 1: league and interception, yes he is. Yeah, but in the

1319
01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:50,400
Speaker 1: last couple of games, that's where that number has grown.

1320
01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:52,800
Speaker 1: In the red zone, where we don't need that to

1321
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:57,120
Speaker 1: happen exactly. We've had calls this week. Fans are in patient.

1322
01:10:57,240 --> 01:10:59,880
Speaker 1: They want to see more hold On, they want to

1323
01:10:59,880 --> 01:11:02,479
Speaker 1: see more from Nihim Hines, and they want to see

1324
01:11:02,520 --> 01:11:04,919
Speaker 1: more from James Cook. They're just not getting the snaps

1325
01:11:05,600 --> 01:11:08,320
Speaker 1: right now. Coach has been asked about it. He said, Look,

1326
01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:10,840
Speaker 1: Nihiem Hines is still getting up to speed, and it

1327
01:11:10,920 --> 01:11:12,439
Speaker 1: is hard to drop in in the middle of the

1328
01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:15,160
Speaker 1: season and know the playbook. But Cook's been here since

1329
01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:20,880
Speaker 1: day one. Um, if you want to diversify the running game,

1330
01:11:21,880 --> 01:11:24,920
Speaker 1: do you diversify the personnel or do you diversify the

1331
01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:29,519
Speaker 1: play calling in the run scheme? I think depending on

1332
01:11:29,560 --> 01:11:32,040
Speaker 1: the weather this week, Yeah, we go back to the weather.

1333
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:37,400
Speaker 1: I mean I don't know. Yeah, I don't know which

1334
01:11:37,400 --> 01:11:40,200
Speaker 1: way you go. I really don't. It could be either.

1335
01:11:40,400 --> 01:11:45,360
Speaker 1: It could be either. Yeah, all depends on maybe both. Well,

1336
01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:49,160
Speaker 1: I don't think it's both. Maybe for one reason, I

1337
01:11:49,200 --> 01:11:51,920
Speaker 1: would love to see one of our running backs be

1338
01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:55,639
Speaker 1: the leading rusher in the game. Yeah, put it. Maybe

1339
01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:57,600
Speaker 1: that would be nice. Before we get before we go,

1340
01:11:57,600 --> 01:11:59,080
Speaker 1: I know we're run out of time. It showed the

1341
01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:02,919
Speaker 1: thermis here that is Thoms. This is the thermis Thomas

1342
01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:06,679
Speaker 1: Staff from the from the TikTok Shannon got that made.

1343
01:12:08,280 --> 01:12:11,719
Speaker 1: That's Thurmans. No, that's not for you to take No Shannons,

1344
01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:15,000
Speaker 1: they just so, you just know, just taking over my

1345
01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:19,160
Speaker 1: rights yet. Yes, Steve, that was a rather universe unilateral

1346
01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:22,280
Speaker 1: decision that you just made. I mean, he's got his own,

1347
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:24,360
Speaker 1: it's got Thermon's face on the day compaign. Just let

1348
01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:26,599
Speaker 1: him take it on the TikTok video too. That's pretty good.

1349
01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:28,600
Speaker 1: That's pretty good. He can give it to Patty. She

1350
01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:31,880
Speaker 1: can bring it when she's away from Thermat. I'm sure

1351
01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:35,320
Speaker 1: Patty really needs a thermis with Thurman's face on it.

1352
01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:38,880
Speaker 1: That's tops on her Christmas list right there. Oh yeah,

1438
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:28,519
Speaker 1: my god, because I'll pull it right out of the casket.

1439
01:17:28,760 --> 01:17:31,559
Speaker 1: Oh wow, we know that, because I know that's the

1440
01:17:31,560 --> 01:17:39,040
Speaker 1: only way you won't show up. Why did this? How

1441
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:41,439
Speaker 1: did this that went dark? I apologize, I didn't mean

1442
01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:45,719
Speaker 1: it to get that evolve into locker room conversation. I'm sorry.

1443
01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:48,040
Speaker 1: I I didn't mean to get flipping about it. But

1444
01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:50,920
Speaker 1: I yeah, I hope you make it. I hope you

1445
01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:55,519
Speaker 1: make it. I'll be there all right. All right, So

1446
01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:58,080
Speaker 1: let's talk a little bit about this one, Darren, because

1447
01:17:58,080 --> 01:18:00,160
Speaker 1: you know that Cleveland's got a pretty good run game

1448
01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:03,559
Speaker 1: that they bring in here. It looks like conditions will

1449
01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:08,519
Speaker 1: be favorable enough where we'll have a clean field on Sunday.

1450
01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:11,479
Speaker 1: That figures to help the Bills more than the Browns

1451
01:18:11,520 --> 01:18:13,840
Speaker 1: because then the passing game can kind of take flight

1452
01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:16,360
Speaker 1: and do what it usually does. But what about the

1453
01:18:16,360 --> 01:18:18,559
Speaker 1: bounce back element? And this one for the Bills, because

1454
01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:21,880
Speaker 1: you gotta you drop two straight and people worry about

1455
01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:25,960
Speaker 1: the team pressing when you guys would drop like the

1456
01:18:26,080 --> 01:18:28,800
Speaker 1: rare occurrence when you drop two in a row. How

1457
01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:32,080
Speaker 1: do you kind of stay even keeled and not press

1458
01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:34,880
Speaker 1: in a game and try to do too much, kind

1459
01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:36,200
Speaker 1: of let the game come to you. How do you

1460
01:18:36,240 --> 01:18:40,559
Speaker 1: stay there? Well, what we did was we just went

1461
01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:43,000
Speaker 1: out and played. But what we would do was in

1462
01:18:43,040 --> 01:18:46,160
Speaker 1: between the losses or on the losses, we'd argue with

1463
01:18:46,240 --> 01:18:48,000
Speaker 1: each other and tell each other what we didn't do

1464
01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:50,920
Speaker 1: and find out what we could do to correct what

1465
01:18:50,960 --> 01:18:53,800
Speaker 1: we were doing, and made sure we had better communications

1466
01:18:53,840 --> 01:18:57,639
Speaker 1: so that if the communication was the problem, we straightened

1467
01:18:57,680 --> 01:18:59,800
Speaker 1: that out and got that straight So we took that

1468
01:19:00,160 --> 01:19:02,479
Speaker 1: little piece of it. Plus, we had a bunch of

1469
01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:05,720
Speaker 1: a bunch of guys they were well are very argumentative

1470
01:19:05,760 --> 01:19:08,960
Speaker 1: that wanted to win, and when you didn't do your job,

1471
01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:11,640
Speaker 1: we let somebody know. That's why they called us the

1472
01:19:11,640 --> 01:19:14,640
Speaker 1: bickering Bills, because we bitch at each other if we

1473
01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:17,880
Speaker 1: didn't get what we needed done. Sorry about that. Yeah,

1474
01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:19,800
Speaker 1: So this and a game like this though too. And

1475
01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:22,000
Speaker 1: we go back when we look at the twenty seventeen

1476
01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:23,960
Speaker 1: game against the Colts where it was six inches or

1477
01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:26,240
Speaker 1: seven inches of snow on the ground, you can't really

1478
01:19:26,280 --> 01:19:34,840
Speaker 1: get anything done offensively anyway? Why And I why because

1479
01:19:34,840 --> 01:19:36,840
Speaker 1: I've been on that field too. And I remember a

1480
01:19:36,840 --> 01:19:39,040
Speaker 1: playoff game where it was snow and at the beginning

1481
01:19:39,080 --> 01:19:42,640
Speaker 1: as between US and Miami, and it was a snowstorm,

1482
01:19:43,080 --> 01:19:44,840
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden it ended up forty one

1483
01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:47,960
Speaker 1: thirty one, right, I mean, all of a sudden, you know,

1484
01:19:48,080 --> 01:19:51,040
Speaker 1: they started, they could still throw the football, Marino and Kelly,

1485
01:19:51,400 --> 01:19:53,559
Speaker 1: and instead of being a slog fest it was it

1486
01:19:53,600 --> 01:19:56,040
Speaker 1: was a shootout and there were seventy two points scored.

1487
01:19:56,280 --> 01:20:02,599
Speaker 1: What's the difference? Difference? Only thing I can say are

1488
01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:06,160
Speaker 1: the individuals that are doing it. Because some guys can

1489
01:20:06,240 --> 01:20:10,760
Speaker 1: play in the coal, some can't, Some are freighted a

1490
01:20:10,840 --> 01:20:15,760
Speaker 1: weather and some aren't. That's it. I really think it

1491
01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:19,280
Speaker 1: boils down to mind over matter. As far as me

1492
01:20:19,479 --> 01:20:23,920
Speaker 1: it concerned some guys, it may bother me. I try

1493
01:20:23,960 --> 01:20:27,639
Speaker 1: and adjust my feet, adjust the shoes I'm wearing, and

1494
01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:30,960
Speaker 1: go for it. Let's say, Stevie'll tell you our visitors

1495
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:33,800
Speaker 1: sideline used to be the slick side of the field. Yeah,

1496
01:20:34,160 --> 01:20:35,960
Speaker 1: so every time you knew when you got to that

1497
01:20:36,120 --> 01:20:38,559
Speaker 1: side you had to get you had to have shoes

1498
01:20:38,640 --> 01:20:40,960
Speaker 1: on that would not allow you to slide on that

1499
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:44,000
Speaker 1: side of the field and worry about how your feet

1500
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:47,200
Speaker 1: getting stuck on the other side. Right. I remember that

1501
01:20:47,320 --> 01:20:52,320
Speaker 1: they had they had the turf, the grain, the fibers

1502
01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:55,719
Speaker 1: of the turf were all slanted towards the visitor's side,

1503
01:20:55,760 --> 01:20:58,599
Speaker 1: the sunny side of the stadium. The visitors side, And

1504
01:20:58,640 --> 01:21:01,840
Speaker 1: if if you wanted to run are an offensive play

1505
01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:04,680
Speaker 1: that you had to cut back, you always ran it

1506
01:21:04,720 --> 01:21:07,400
Speaker 1: to the home side because the you'd be going into

1507
01:21:07,439 --> 01:21:09,840
Speaker 1: the fiber instead of away from it. And if you

1508
01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:12,639
Speaker 1: went the other direction, well it depends on which direction

1509
01:21:12,640 --> 01:21:14,920
Speaker 1: you were headed, obviously, but you went to that side

1510
01:21:14,920 --> 01:21:16,439
Speaker 1: of the field if you had to have a cutback,

1511
01:21:16,640 --> 01:21:18,360
Speaker 1: never knew that. And if you went to the to

1512
01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:20,439
Speaker 1: the visitor's side, you knew you better just kind of

1513
01:21:20,439 --> 01:21:21,800
Speaker 1: go ahead and run out of bounds because if you

1514
01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:25,440
Speaker 1: tried to plant your foot was going to give way right,

1515
01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:29,640
Speaker 1: right right. And and you remember too that the that

1516
01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:32,280
Speaker 1: the logo in the middle of the field was paint.

1517
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:37,759
Speaker 1: It was like pat right, Yes, it was plastic. Yeah,

1518
01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:40,960
Speaker 1: So you couldn't stand on that either if it got

1519
01:21:41,320 --> 01:21:43,759
Speaker 1: so all that stuff makes a difference, Darrel, I wanted

1520
01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:45,560
Speaker 1: to ask you because I don't think I've had the

1521
01:21:45,600 --> 01:21:48,720
Speaker 1: opportunity to do this, but I'm really curious to get

1522
01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:52,160
Speaker 1: your thoughts as a former linebacker on the two guys

1523
01:21:52,160 --> 01:21:53,640
Speaker 1: that are on the field all the time for the

1524
01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:58,240
Speaker 1: Bills in Milano and Edmonds, and the transformation of the

1525
01:21:58,320 --> 01:22:02,640
Speaker 1: requirements of the linebacker position, which has become almost a

1526
01:22:02,720 --> 01:22:06,320
Speaker 1: full time coverage position with the way the league is

1527
01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:08,200
Speaker 1: going right now. I mean, yes, you still have to

1528
01:22:08,200 --> 01:22:09,760
Speaker 1: play the run front, but you know what I'm saying,

1529
01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:12,280
Speaker 1: there's a lot more coverage responsibilities through the course of

1530
01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:15,960
Speaker 1: a game for linebackers nowadays than even when you guys played.

1531
01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:20,639
Speaker 1: What about these two Edmonds and Milano, I think they're

1532
01:22:20,640 --> 01:22:25,040
Speaker 1: both playing well. My thing is I would be a

1533
01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:28,040
Speaker 1: little more aggressive at it, but from what I've seen,

1534
01:22:28,800 --> 01:22:30,720
Speaker 1: both of them have played very very well this year.

1535
01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:33,639
Speaker 1: I mean Milano started out, he could have had three

1536
01:22:33,680 --> 01:22:36,360
Speaker 1: interceptions in one game I seen, right, So you know

1537
01:22:36,479 --> 01:22:39,800
Speaker 1: I'm looking at that he's playing well. Tremaine is actually

1538
01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:43,880
Speaker 1: making plays where he's off the ball, and that's where

1539
01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:46,800
Speaker 1: he's best at is off the ball and then coming downhill.

1540
01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:49,760
Speaker 1: He makes a lot of plays. I've seen him make

1541
01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:51,760
Speaker 1: more plays this year in the backfield or at the

1542
01:22:51,800 --> 01:22:54,679
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. In the backfield than at the line

1543
01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:57,120
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. So that's a good thing for me when

1544
01:22:57,120 --> 01:22:59,479
Speaker 1: I look at him play, because I think a guy

1545
01:22:59,560 --> 01:23:02,479
Speaker 1: like that needs to be going forward and be attacking

1546
01:23:02,560 --> 01:23:05,200
Speaker 1: because and using his arms, and therefore he can do

1547
01:23:05,240 --> 01:23:08,559
Speaker 1: that Milano's a little smaller. He's a little more shift here,

1548
01:23:09,680 --> 01:23:12,600
Speaker 1: and he gets his and done in space. Let me

1549
01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:16,360
Speaker 1: ask you this too, because I realized schemes change, techniques change,

1550
01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:20,160
Speaker 1: and all of that stuff more often than not. Edmonds

1551
01:23:20,200 --> 01:23:22,840
Speaker 1: and Milano are about three and a half yards from

1552
01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:26,759
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, which maybe people from your time

1553
01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:30,200
Speaker 1: would consider very They're little. They're a little further back

1554
01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:32,720
Speaker 1: now they are, okay, because last year a lot of

1555
01:23:32,720 --> 01:23:37,240
Speaker 1: three further Okay, where would you usually typically line up?

1556
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:40,920
Speaker 1: I can let it depends on if it was first

1557
01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:45,680
Speaker 1: or second down. I'm within three yards. Yeah, then when

1558
01:23:45,720 --> 01:23:47,360
Speaker 1: it came to third down, I was four and a

1559
01:23:47,439 --> 01:23:51,679
Speaker 1: half yards deep. Okay, four and a half three yards,

1560
01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:55,280
Speaker 1: I mean four and a half the four yards dep Okay,

1561
01:23:55,320 --> 01:23:59,040
Speaker 1: where is the danger zone that would run the risk

1562
01:23:59,080 --> 01:24:01,400
Speaker 1: of cutting you off from scraping over the top. You

1563
01:24:01,479 --> 01:24:05,120
Speaker 1: got to be aware to still be able to scrape effectively.

1564
01:24:06,360 --> 01:24:09,200
Speaker 1: Oh well, then there's there's there's a few things that

1565
01:24:09,200 --> 01:24:13,559
Speaker 1: it has to transpire in that. Because number one, if

1566
01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:15,680
Speaker 1: you're playing close to the line of scrimmage and they

1567
01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:20,360
Speaker 1: offer in the defensive lineman aren't playing gaps, They're running

1568
01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:24,800
Speaker 1: to their responsibilities. They're not playing gaps in spots, you're

1569
01:24:24,800 --> 01:24:27,920
Speaker 1: going to have a problem because if they're they're running

1570
01:24:27,960 --> 01:24:31,040
Speaker 1: and you're running, then somebody's going to get pushed by.

1571
01:24:31,840 --> 01:24:35,840
Speaker 1: So I understand they have a front that's running and

1572
01:24:35,880 --> 01:24:38,240
Speaker 1: they try and mess the linebackers in with them. Right,

1573
01:24:38,840 --> 01:24:42,000
Speaker 1: But the way that we did it, we had we

1574
01:24:42,040 --> 01:24:45,439
Speaker 1: had gaps that we played gap control defensive, gap control defense,

1575
01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:47,559
Speaker 1: and basically you knew what you had to be and

1576
01:24:47,560 --> 01:24:49,599
Speaker 1: if you got somebody got pushed out of your gap,

1577
01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:52,640
Speaker 1: there was this huge cutback lane, which is what you

1578
01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:54,840
Speaker 1: see with a lot of runs this year, I mean

1579
01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:59,519
Speaker 1: now in football, because everybody's running. There's no more read

1580
01:24:59,600 --> 01:25:02,639
Speaker 1: stepper anything like that or looking at the back before

1581
01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:06,559
Speaker 1: getting your pickups that way. I don't understand what they're

1582
01:25:06,600 --> 01:25:09,960
Speaker 1: doing or why they run. Right now, I would take

1583
01:25:09,960 --> 01:25:12,479
Speaker 1: a read step, didn't run because both of them were

1584
01:25:12,479 --> 01:25:16,439
Speaker 1: fast enough to get to the edge. So I don't

1585
01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:20,040
Speaker 1: understand that. And maybe is that they have him playing slower.

1586
01:25:20,080 --> 01:25:21,840
Speaker 1: I have a guy playing behind the ball a little

1587
01:25:21,880 --> 01:25:24,160
Speaker 1: bit so that when he gets there he can just

1588
01:25:24,200 --> 01:25:27,519
Speaker 1: take the guard, mash him or whomever and mash him

1589
01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:30,120
Speaker 1: back into the hole and then run with the running

1590
01:25:30,120 --> 01:25:33,360
Speaker 1: back to the sideline. Therefore, I clogged up the hole

1591
01:25:33,400 --> 01:25:39,000
Speaker 1: that would be the cutback and make him go outside

1592
01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:42,960
Speaker 1: the way the way the defense is going. Now everything

1593
01:25:43,080 --> 01:25:47,000
Speaker 1: is contained. They're pulling everything up with the defensive ends right,

1594
01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:50,600
Speaker 1: and everything has got to be inside out. From what

1595
01:25:50,680 --> 01:25:55,559
Speaker 1: I'm saying, whereas we bounced everything to the outside, everybody

1596
01:25:55,640 --> 01:25:58,439
Speaker 1: knew force it to the sideline. We've got more speed

1597
01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:04,439
Speaker 1: to the sideline than you have going to the sideline. Yeah, yeah, Daryl,

1598
01:26:04,479 --> 01:26:07,160
Speaker 1: all I'm telling you again, good lark. Travel safe when

1608
01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:30,599
Speaker 1: Will be Bill's Wall of Famer. ARYLD. Talley's joining us

1609
01:26:30,640 --> 01:26:32,600
Speaker 1: here on one Bills Live. Now you know why I

1610
01:26:32,600 --> 01:26:34,519
Speaker 1: wanted to crawl in his head a little bit. Yeah,

1611
01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:36,519
Speaker 1: he once you get him going on X and os.

1612
01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:39,120
Speaker 1: Did you hear out here how quickly he slid into that.

1613
01:26:39,200 --> 01:26:41,400
Speaker 1: He started looking off into the distance and just thinking,

1614
01:26:41,479 --> 01:26:45,799
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, they get into that trance and they yeah,

1615
01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:48,240
Speaker 1: that's a guy that played a long time, and that's

1616
01:26:48,240 --> 01:26:51,439
Speaker 1: a guy. That's a guy that Bruce Smith credits with

1617
01:26:51,760 --> 01:26:54,280
Speaker 1: teaching him a lot of the xs and os, how

1618
01:26:54,280 --> 01:26:58,519
Speaker 1: to read film, study film, execute all of that stuff.

1619
01:26:59,240 --> 01:27:01,760
Speaker 1: And the favorite thing that Darrel used to say during

1620
01:27:01,800 --> 01:27:03,840
Speaker 1: the games that I still like to this day when

1621
01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:05,320
Speaker 1: he used to try to fire up Bruce to go

1622
01:27:05,360 --> 01:27:09,400
Speaker 1: get a sack, go get me some heat meat. So

1623
01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:12,360
Speaker 1: he used to tell Bruce on the field, get me

1624
01:27:12,439 --> 01:27:16,479
Speaker 1: some heat meat. He called him meat. I don't know why,

1625
01:27:16,880 --> 01:27:21,760
Speaker 1: maybe you no, No, okay, fair enough. We gotta take

1626
01:27:21,800 --> 01:27:24,439
Speaker 1: a break here because we gotta wrap things up when

1627
01:27:24,439 --> 01:27:27,040
Speaker 1: we come back here on One Bill's Live. Stay tuned,

1628
01:27:44,040 --> 01:27:46,240
Speaker 1: all right, Welcome back to One Bill's Live. Chris Brown,

1629
01:27:46,280 --> 01:27:49,120
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker with you, and we're gonna take a little

1630
01:27:49,120 --> 01:27:53,880
Speaker 1: trip down memory lane here, Steve twenty seventeen, Bills Colts,

1631
01:27:53,880 --> 01:27:58,280
Speaker 1: the snow game you're working for CBS on the sidelines,

1632
01:27:58,439 --> 01:28:04,080
Speaker 1: look at you. Was bad though, it was bad. It

1633
01:28:04,120 --> 01:28:06,000
Speaker 1: was so I remember I did one of the hits

1634
01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:08,680
Speaker 1: I did in the second half, Bless their heart. They

1635
01:28:08,680 --> 01:28:12,639
Speaker 1: had the crew with the snow. They had the leaf

1636
01:28:12,640 --> 01:28:16,559
Speaker 1: blowers they were trying to blow. Then they also had shovelers. Right,

1637
01:28:18,040 --> 01:28:21,320
Speaker 1: those poor guys were they were gassed. Well, the look

1638
01:28:21,360 --> 01:28:23,000
Speaker 1: on your face looks like they had you shovel and

1639
01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:26,680
Speaker 1: you look pretty exhausted. They're funny. I got snow accumulating

1640
01:28:26,680 --> 01:28:29,000
Speaker 1: on my shoulders, everything, my layers. Did you have on

1641
01:28:29,080 --> 01:28:32,200
Speaker 1: for that? Do you remember? I was good? Though I was,

1642
01:28:32,360 --> 01:28:34,439
Speaker 1: I was ready for it. I had you know, what

1643
01:28:34,560 --> 01:28:37,440
Speaker 1: do you usually put in? Do you put the handwarmers

1644
01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:40,040
Speaker 1: in your boots too, as well as your not in

1645
01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:41,840
Speaker 1: the boots? I had no. I had good ones, and

1646
01:28:41,920 --> 01:28:46,920
Speaker 1: had ski pants and bass had a bass layer, a

1647
01:28:46,960 --> 01:28:48,559
Speaker 1: pair of pants, and then I had a ski pants

1648
01:28:48,560 --> 01:28:53,960
Speaker 1: over that bass layer, up top, sweatshirt parka you're good,

1649
01:28:54,160 --> 01:28:57,439
Speaker 1: and then gloves. It was so bad. It was so bad.

1650
01:28:57,479 --> 01:28:59,840
Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like it. Yeah, and it was

1651
01:29:00,040 --> 01:29:03,519
Speaker 1: and it was coming down really hard and fast. There's

1652
01:29:03,520 --> 01:29:05,160
Speaker 1: a photo of my son and my brother in law

1653
01:29:05,160 --> 01:29:09,080
Speaker 1: who were at that game. There's snow accumulation on their shoulders.

1654
01:29:09,160 --> 01:29:12,560
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it was epic, absolutely epic. And let me

1655
01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:15,320
Speaker 1: tell you something, the networks don't want this game to

1656
01:29:15,360 --> 01:29:16,600
Speaker 1: move and they want it to be just like that.

1657
01:29:17,120 --> 01:29:20,519
Speaker 1: People can't wait to watch that stuff. Big Show Tomorrow

1658
01:29:20,640 --> 01:29:23,680
Speaker 1: is always on Friday. Great Cosell and Micah Hyde in
