1
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: At a Steve Tasker who has been all over the field.

2
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: Kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role

3
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: player for you, state Steve a blimp. We're not even

4
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: in the strated here of normalcy here all right, ripping

5
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: and roaring here on a Thursday, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker

6
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: with you one bills live the name of the show.

7
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us here till three. Plenty of stuff

8
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: to do. We got ESPN Fantasy football expert field Yates

9
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: joining us in about thirty minutes time. He'll be giving

10
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: us his ultimate fantasy lineup, presented by fan Duel. And

11
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 1: then we hope later in the show, second hour of

12
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 1: the program to have one Zach Moss joining us, fresh

13
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 1: off the bye, Ready to rock guy had some monster

14
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: red zone touchdown runs against the Dolphins back in Week two,

15
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: so we'll talk to him about that and how they

16
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: get back on track in the red zone. Name he

17
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 1: pounded people getting into the end zone. Yeah. The only

18
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,199
Speaker 1: reason it didn't when Angry Runs that week was because

19
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: the guy he popped the land and Roberts got hurt

20
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: on the play. And Kyle Brandt's only rule with Angry

21
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: Runs is no one can get injured, so that's the

22
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: only reason he didn't win. Zach Moss also has an

23
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: unveiling of his new clothing line, which will be at

24
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 1: the Bill store in a pop up shop style setting.

25
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 1: I guess Zach will be there too, right, yes, so

26
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: we will be talking to him about that as well.

27
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: So Ze tuned for that so we can provide all

28
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: the details to you to see how you can get

29
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: in on the action. Z m Yeah, Zimo, I think

30
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: is how he says it, right. Obviously a take on

31
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: his name is Zach Moss, so boom, there we go.

32
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: So we look forward to talking to him in the

33
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: second hour of the program. We do want to get

34
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: to NFL news and notes and Steve, do you remember

35
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: back in the spring where the Bills were the team

36
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: you're not gonna get me? On a hot take? The

37
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: Bills were one of two teams mentioned as interested in

38
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: one J. J. Watt, who asked for his release from

39
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: the Texans and was granted that. In hindsight, he's probably

40
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 1: pretty darn happy he made that decision. Bills did not

41
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: want to overpay for JJ Watt. He ends up getting

42
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: fifteen and a half million a year on a two

43
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: year deal. From the Arizona Cardinals, and now he might

44
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: be lost for the season due to shoulder surgery after

45
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: dislocating his shoulder when chasing the quarterback out of the

46
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: pocket in last week's game. Finished the game, but he's

47
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: gonna have to get his wing fixed. He was changing.

48
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: Probably gonna miss the rest of the season. Houston quarterback Mills. Yeah, so,

49
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: I say, I say to you, Steve Tasker, what do

50
00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: we make of this development? I mean, hindsight, it's obviously

51
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, but it's no secret. Now this is the

52
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: fourth time in the last six seasons that JJ Watt

53
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: will not finish the season due to a severe injury.

54
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: He's a physical player who plays hard in a physical ailment,

55
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: and he has been injured, and he's old. Yeah, and

56
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: guys just don't bounce back. I think. I think what

57
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: it does reiterate is how astute Brandon, being in his

58
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: personnel department, are in assessing the proper value to a

59
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: player available for acquisition. They don't overvalue players. They look

60
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: at everything, whether it's pass production, current production, whether a

61
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: player is ascending, whether he's leveled off, whether he's in decline,

62
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: and they attach a value accordingly. An injury history is

63
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: a part of that, and I think the Bills we

64
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: were on the mark with their value on JJ Watt.

65
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: It ultimately meant they did not sign him. But it

66
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: was a similar situation a couple of years ago with

67
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: Brandon Phillips or not Brandon Phillips. What's the defensive tackle

68
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 1: that was here? Jordan Phillips. Sorry, Yes, he was having

69
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: a monster year with the Bills in twenty nineteen. It

70
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: was his first monster year. First monster year, coincidently enough,

71
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: also a contract year, and they had even though he

72
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: had nine and a half sacks, they assessed a value

73
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: to what they thought Jordan Phillips would be for this

74
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 1: team going forward. Obviously he made more money on the

75
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: open market, which is his prerogative, and obviously you're going

76
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 1: to do that when you can create generational wealth for

77
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: your family. So he gets a three year deal worth

78
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 1: about ten million a year with the Arizona Cardinals. His

79
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: first year was okay, not as good as twenty nineteen

80
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: with the Bills, and this year he's been out injured. Arizona.

81
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: Yes they are seven and oh but that salary cap

82
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: accountant is going to come calling pretty soon here with

83
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: some of the ways in which they have overpaid for talent. Yeah,

84
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 1: I don't want to. I'm not gonna jump up and

85
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: down saying you know, I told you so or anything

86
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: like that, because I really didn't. I'll say this. In

87
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: relation to the JJ Watt thing and how close he

88
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: was or how close he wasn't to becoming a Bill, well,

89
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 1: we may never know. All I'm saying is this, the

90
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 1: Bills have done a nice job staying disciplined. There have

91
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: been a lot of shiny objects on the shelf since

92
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott took over and Brandon being took over. Remember

93
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: Khalil Mack was one of them. You go down the

94
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: list of guys who are out there available, and they

95
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: have stayed inside the lines financially, knowing that if you're

96
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: gonna put fifty three guys out there and you're gonna

97
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: run your program, you've got to have all of those

98
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: guys doing everything they can to earn the money they're getting.

99
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 1: You can't have anybody making sixty three million bucks and

100
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: on the sidelines with an injury, or a thirty seven

101
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: year old guy who's got to play every down you

102
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 1: know out there. You gotta have guys who you know

103
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: are gonna be able to contribute. Now, injuries are a

104
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 1: big unknown. I get it, and JJ Watt's perfect, but

105
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: when you get longer in the tooth, it becomes a

106
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: little bit of a risk. But I think the Bills

107
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: have played those cards right. And I heard you know,

108
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: there's been articles here. There have been some guys that

109
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: got away. Wyatt Teller who turned into an All Pro guard.

110
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: Quentin Spain is now playing extremely well for Cincinnati. Not Cincinnati,

111
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, Cincinnati, But don't forget those guys. They weren't

112
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,920
Speaker 1: playing that well when they were here. And Quentin Spain's

113
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: in a much different situation in Cincinnati that he was here.

114
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: He had just signed a deal here, a three year deal,

115
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: and seemingly took his foot off the gas. The Bills

116
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: have been extremely good at knowing or at least having

117
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,360
Speaker 1: an idea of what it's going to take to motivate

118
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 1: each of their players, and that means on the field,

119
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: in the meeting rooms, in the workout rooms, in the

120
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: off season, and with their contract. And I think what

121
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: people forget when it comes to pro personnel departments is

122
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: you're not only responsible for accurately judging or projecting talent

123
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: and how it fits into your team. You're essentially a

124
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: risk assessor like an insurance company. That's right, You're you are.

125
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: You're not only assessing talent and its value in terms

126
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: of the fit with your team, your scheme, whatever it

127
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: might be. You're also a risk assessor. I mean you

128
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 1: can go from that job and work in insurance real easy,

129
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: because it's very much the same in that regard, like

130
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: is what is our level of risk with this player

131
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: who has this industry, this injury history, and is this age?

132
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: I mean you do a lot of that in that job.

133
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: We actually have a caller here at eight three five

134
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: fifty who wants to chime in on the JJ Watt injury.

00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: It's Bobby and cheek to waga, Bob, what do you

136

138
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,600

139
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: that they were looking at Frith to come here. He's

140
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: did a cop case ever since You've got in the league,

141
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: and I want a nice side bet with some big

142
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: buddy that I says he would not finish the season

143
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: with injuries but I gave a moore of maybe night

144
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: ten games he played before he got hurt, so they

145
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 1: weren't far off he got he only got to seven. Yeah,

146
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: well I'm happy. But you know what, it's uh shows

147
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: brand to be to that they really know what they're doing.

148
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 1: That he didn't want to come here either, so twofold,

149
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: you know, so we Uh, it looks like we made

150
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 1: it out pretty good. Decided not to get him or

151
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: pursue it. Yeah, take care of guys that I listened

152
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: it all right, thanks Bob. We appreciate the call. Yeah,

153
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: that's not I wasn't a bad projection. He projected nine

154
00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: games and then he'd be out. He only made it

155
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: to seven. Yeah, and you know, like I was saying,

156
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 1: it's it's all about assessing. Is a player ascending? Has

157
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: he plateaued on the downside of his career. I think

158
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: wadd is in a place where he's he's unquestionably plateaued.

159
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: The question is has the decline begun? And with yet

160
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: another season ending injury, because if people remember a couple

161
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 1: of years ago, he had a peck injury and that

162
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: cost him like the last ten games of the season.

163
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 1: He was able to come back and play in the

164
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: playoff game against the Bills, the wild card game down

165
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: in Houston. But this isn't the first time he's gone

166
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 1: through this, because there is speculation as to whether he'd

167
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: be able to get healthy enough in time to play

168
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: in the postseason. I don't know that the calendar is

169
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 1: going to work for him in that regard because we're

170
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: already at Halloween and you're halfway through the season. Yes,

171
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: I know, you have an extra week this year of

172
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: the regular season that buys him an extra week. It's

173
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: going to be pretty close. But maybe if Arizona has

174
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: a buy that's two week he gets to pick up

175
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: in terms of rehab time. So we'll have to wait

176
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: and see. But I mean not that we're wishing any

177
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: ill will on anybody, just I mean it's unfortunate for J. J.

178
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: Watt that would looked like an innocuous dive at a

179
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: tackle attempt winds up in a dislocated shoulder. But he's

180
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: had problems before with his shoulders, so you know the

181
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: integrity of those. After you do something to him once,

182
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 1: no matter how much rehab you do, it never seems

183
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: to be quite the same. And it's it's hard to

184
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: stay on top of this as a as a you know,

185
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: as a fan, and all that Bills have thirteen guys

186
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 1: out of the fifty seven that they've got under contract,

187
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: a couple of guys on i R. Thirteen of them

188
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: are on a one year deal. Yeah, so I remember

189
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:45,319
Speaker 1: pretty prominent Sanders, Levi Wallace, those kind of guys. Eight

190
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: guys their contracts are up after next year, plus those,

191
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: so that's twenty one guys that you've got that are

192
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: gonna be off the books in sixteen seventeen months. So

193
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: there's stay in liquid with the cap. And they have

194
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: used those contracts, particularly short term contracts. You bring a

195
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: guy in like Emmanuel Sanders, it's a perfect example. Give

196
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 1: the guy he wants to sign with somebody and make

197
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,719
Speaker 1: a bigger deal, give him a one year deal. Make

198
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 1: it worth it for him. He's making good money, but

199
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: you're not tied up to him long term. You know,

200
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: Manuel Sanders is making let me just look here, his

201
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: contract says six million bucks one year and he came

202
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: and make it. Yeah, that's that's good money and down right.

203
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 1: So he's but he's only on the books for one year,

204
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: and the Bills do that a lot with the length

205
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: of the contracts that they give these guys. They'll pay

206
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,559
Speaker 1: him a few dollars more for a length of contract

207
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: that doesn't have him tied up and have a dead

208
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 1: cap number that's going to crush him in a few years.

209
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: They've stayed really disciplined financially, and of course they that

210
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 1: goes hand in hand with what they know about how

211
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 1: they can motivate guys. What guys want from from an organization.

212
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,079
Speaker 1: They want a chance to play. They want a chance

213
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: to get a really good contract, and they don't want

214
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: to do it for free. And the shorter of the contract.

215
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: From a player's perspective, I'll sign a two week contract

216
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: if it's worth it moneywise. But if you want me

217
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: to do a one year deal in the numbers right,

218
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: I'll do it. But you got to give me a

219
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 1: chance to play so I can earn another contract from

220
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: another team. And the Bills have done that time and

221
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: time again, and players respond to it in a big way.

222
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: Speaking of the Cardinals and their game tonight against the Packers,

223
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 1: while they will be without JJ Watt tonight, their lineup

224
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: loss is pale in comparison to that of the Packers,

225
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,959
Speaker 1: who were hit by some COVID related losses, their defensive

226
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: coordinator Joe Barry, wide receiver Davante Adams, and wide receiver

227
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 1: Alan Lazard. And now ESPN's Jeremy Fowler is reporting that

228
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: Marquez Valdez Scantling, another receiver for the Packers, is not

229
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 1: looking good for tonight's game either, but that's due to

230
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 1: a hamstring injury. The early reports are that the Packers

231
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: are inclined to have Valdez Scandling wait one more week

232
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: before returning to the lineup. So three of Aaron Rodgers'

233
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 1: top four receivers are not going to be in the

234
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: lineup tonight. That is that is a rough go hello,

235
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: Robert Tonyan, catch as many balls as you ken, big fella.

236
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 1: I also heard Aaron Rodgers is like four and oh

237
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 1: or six and oz without Davante Adams in the lineup.

238
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: Really yeah, oh I like that stat, Steve, well done. Yeah,

239
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: he hasn't won, He hasn't lost a game. When when

240
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 1: Davanta Adams is on the team but can't play because

241
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: of an injury, he hasn't lost a game in that situation.

242
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: Hasn't been that many of them, but yeah, there you

243
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 1: have it. So lots going on in this game. It's

244
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of I think it's gonna be

245
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: a really good game. There's a lot on the line,

246
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 1: I think, maybe not. You know, both these teams are

247
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: gonna be in the playoffs, right, I think there's a

248
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: lot on the line when we get into January and February,

249
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:06,839
Speaker 1: I'm be looking at this game going now. The head

250
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: to heads right there, you know, so that's it's gonna

251
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: you know, one of these teams may get the buy

252
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: in the NFC. Now, there's a lot of football to

253
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 1: be played. Now, you know, both of them could fall flat.

254
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: But this is is kind of big. I think, not

255
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: big today, but big in three months when you look

256
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: back and say, Okay, they won the head to head,

257
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: now they've got to be ahead of them, buy a

258
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: game in the standing. Certainly Arizona will be a head

259
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: by two, but green Bay will be ahead because of

260
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: the tiebreaker if they win. Yeah, because they both have identical,

261
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: very pivotal game for midseason for the NFC conference race

262
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: for that first seed and the buy. Other teams could

263
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: climb into the mix, I suppose, but right now it's

264
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 1: these two. They're not going to Arizona loses. Well, right right,

265
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: that's and I think that's a that's a tough ask

266
00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: for That's a tough ask for Green Bay with the

267
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: players out of their lineup on the offensive. I mean,

268
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 1: that would be the equivalent of the Bills going into

269
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: a game without Stefan Diggs, Emmanuel Sanders and Game Davis.

270
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: That would be the equation and Leslie Fraser and Leslie Fraser,

271
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: I mean come on, yeah, and going against Arizona and

272
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: again and going against an undefeated team. Yeah, that's that's

273
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: a rough ask. Ye. I wonder how that and I

274
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: don't I don't gab, you know, I don't gamble. I

275
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: just talk about people who do. I wonder how much

276
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: that moves the line, you know. I mean, if you're

277
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 1: sitting there and you you got to you got this

278
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: itch that you gotta scratch and book money on down

279
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: on everything you can see, how does that change your thought? Yeah,

280
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: you know it might. Uh. Bills updates as far as

281
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: the team is concerned and getting ready for Sunday's game

282
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 1: against the Dolphins. Right tackle Spencer Brown did not practice yesterday.

283
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: Our eyeballs out there at the practice field tell us

284
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: he was not out there seen during the media viewing

285
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: portion of practice again today, so we will see what

286
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: the practice or injury report for Thursday, which is which

287
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: will be released later this afternoon tells us with respect

288
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: to that. You know, obviously, if Spencer Brown is not

289
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: in the lineup, I would I'm just guessing here, but

290
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: I would presume that Darry Williams would kick back out

291
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: to right tackle, being the next best available option, I

292
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: would think. So we'll have to see where that goes

293
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: and how that shapes up as the week goes on.

294
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: For those that don't know, Spencer Brown is dealing with

295
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: a back ailment, the severity of which is not known,

296
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: but obviously if he's not out there for a second

297
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 1: straight practice, it's of some significance. So we'll have to

298
00:16:53,840 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: see where that goes between now and Sunday. Cole Beasley

299
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,400
Speaker 1: back practicing. Looks like Emmanuel Sanders has a veteran rest

300
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: day today. Each of those receivers tends to get a

301
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: day one day, it's Beasley one day, it's Sanders one day,

302
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: it's Digs. So we'll get an update later this afternoon

303
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 1: when the Thursday injury report is released. The word is

304
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: that Justin Zimmer was back practicing again today. He was

305
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 1: limited yesterday with a foot injury. He was an unexpected

306
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 1: add to the injury report yesterday. So we'll see how

307
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,359
Speaker 1: he fares and if his status is changed or if

308
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,919
Speaker 1: he remains limited after a practice concludes today and the

309
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 1: report comes out from there. The Dolphins we heard to

310
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: his comment yesterday or we relayed it. He was asked

311
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 1: point blank does he feel wanted by the Dolphins? And

312
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: his quote was, I don't not feel wanted. He went

313
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: double negative, which certainly is far are from anything that

314
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 1: could be construed as a ringing endorsement. So apparently Brian Flores,

315
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 1: the head coach of the Dolphins, sat down with Tuah

316
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 1: and they had a discussion and Tua now says he

317
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: is confident in his status as the Dolphins QB after

318
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: a talk with coach Flores. And you know, good on

319
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,679
Speaker 1: coach Flores to clear the air because all of this

320
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson talk that there's a trade agreement in principle,

321
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 1: just waiting until Watson's legal situation is clearer. That doesn't

322
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: work well with the psyche of a second year quarterback

323
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: that you made fifth pick in the draft in twenty twenty.

324
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: So you want your quarterback going into a game with

325
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 1: a clear conscience and willing to lay it on the

326
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,400
Speaker 1: line for a team that he believes is backing him.

327
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,199
Speaker 1: So that was that was a meaning, that was an

328
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: absolute must as far as I'm concerned. Flores did the

329
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 1: right thing, no question. You gotta you've gotta have a

330
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: relationship with your starting quarterback if you're the head coach.

331
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 1: I mean, there's just no two ways about it. Or

332
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:05,199
Speaker 1: it's not gonna you're not gonna last long. And he

333
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 1: can't live in a vacuum. He knows what's being said

334
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: about him and Deshaun Watson and all that. Although you

335
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 1: look at his you know the guy's playing. He's playing good.

336
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: He has a couple of bad turnovers here and there,

337
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,440
Speaker 1: and that's it. It's not like he's Jamis Winston either,

338
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: like he's throwing right exactly. Um, this Dolphins team, they're

339
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:30,479
Speaker 1: an enigma. They have way more problems than tah. You know,

340
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:35,879
Speaker 1: their defense is playing awful, their offensive lines playing OFFUL,

341
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 1: their pass rush is playing OFFUL, and two us throwing

342
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,120
Speaker 1: for almost three hundred yards a game, four touchdowns, had

343
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: a couple of picks, even red zone pick two. I mean,

344
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 1: they were moving the football, so you know, right now

345
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,360
Speaker 1: they're getting good play out of their quarterback. But then

346
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: all they hear in the media and all we talk

347
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: about is this Deshaun Watson thinging where he's gonna go

348
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 1: and the only play and the word is only place

349
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson wants to go as Miami. That's the only

350
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: place he wants to go. Yeah. The report is that's

351
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 1: the only team for which he has waived his no

352
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 1: trade clause. That's the word. That's the reports that we're hearing.

353
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: That's why that's been number one destination. How fast he's

354
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: gonna be ready to play? I don't know. Is he

355
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: gonna play, He's gonna be suspended, I don't know. I mean,

356
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,239
Speaker 1: I'm sure he wants to turn the page on this

357
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:28,120
Speaker 1: portion of his career. But you've got bigger, bigger things

358
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: to deal with right now, fella, than your professional career. Yeah,

359
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 1: so he's gotta handle that first. Speaking of the Texans,

360
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 1: they traded former Pro Bowl running back Mark Ingram back

361
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: to the Saints. Ingram, who was with the Saints and

362
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: then moved on to Baltimore and then signed as a

363
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 1: free agent with Houston. In his past offseason has been

364
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 1: shipped back to the Saints, whose offense really needs help.

365
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: Jameis Winston having trouble finding receivers in the passing game.

366
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 1: They're thirty first in the league and passing right now.

367
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: They are eleventh and rushing and you can thank Alvin

368
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 1: Kamara for that. So perhaps Sean Payton is thinking, let's

369
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 1: get some more run support here. If we're having so

370
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: much trouble throwing the ball, we better be able to

371
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 1: run it well. So they get the veteran back in

372
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 1: the fold. He was a former first round pick of

373
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: the Saints when he came out of Alabama, so he

374
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,920
Speaker 1: is back. Not happy with that decision was Brandon Cooks

375
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,479
Speaker 1: of the Houston Texans, who knows a thing or two

376
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: about being traded. He's played for what four teams now.

377
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: I don't know why he didn't already see the big

378
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 1: sign on the wall that says fire sale at the

379
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 1: Houston Texans training facility, because they've been doing nothing but

380
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,639
Speaker 1: tossing guys overboard for the better part of the last month,

381
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,880
Speaker 1: and the trade deadlines fast approaching. So anybody else that's

382
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,360
Speaker 1: interested give us a call. You know, that's the kind

383
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 1: of operation they're running down there. They know they're going

384
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 1: nowhere this season. I get why it's frustrating for Brandon Cooks.

385
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:56,880
Speaker 1: He's going out there laying it on the line every week,

386
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: trying to win a football game, and they're going the

387
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 1: other way saying, well, you know, we're investing in the

388
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,640
Speaker 1: future here, forget about the here and now. Yeah, don't

389
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 1: do we know what they got for Ingram. I think

390
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 1: it was a late conditional pick. I don't remember. I

391
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 1: mean he's he's a thirty two year old running back,

392
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah. Brandon Cooks went out and put it

393
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: out on on social media, called it BS it was

394
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: a joke. I mean that period, two periods on that

395
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: Oh right, So no exclamation point, just all serious. And

396
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 1: you know he's not wrong. You think he's the only

397
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: guy in that locker room he's that Oh my goodness,

398
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 1: You think Tyrod doesn't feel that way. Tyrod's never been

399
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: the guy. That's a tough place to be, tough place

400
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 1: to be, horrible over there right now, tough place to

401
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: be for sure. Raiders former head coach John Gruden reportedly

402
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 1: reached a settlement on his contract after resigning a couple

403
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 1: of weeks ago. I love to see what the numbers

404
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 1: are in that deal since he signed what a ten year,

405
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: one hundred billion dollar contract act four years ago, yechh.

406
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 1: And then Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, who we remember before

407
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: the buy, suffered a calf injury in the latter stages

408
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 1: of the game against the Patriots. He said that his

409
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: calf injury must quote cross the threshold to play Sunday

410
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 1: against the Vikings, So his status still a little bit

411
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: in doubt for Sunday's game against Minnesota. Yeah, that it's

412
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: getting that time where these guys are gonna you know,

413
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 1: it's a it's a foot race, right, I don't know

414
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 1: foot race. It's wrong, wrong use of the word. It's

415
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: a race to get healthy to play. That's what the

416
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 1: bye weeek was for him for sure. And you know, I, yeah,

417
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think he'll be right, right, Yeah,

418
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,199
Speaker 1: I don't think he'll be running around very much. So

419
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 1: they better have some quick pass game built into the

420
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,880
Speaker 1: game plan, you would think, well, among other things. Yeah,

421
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 1: it's been said, you know, Jerry Jones had said he

422
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 1: doesn't think he's gonna he's gonna be it. He thinks

423
00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 1: he's gonna be all right, he thinks he's gonna be

424
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: in the game, but I don't know whether that's accurate. Yeah, well,

425
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 1: you'd like to think the owner knows what's going on.

426
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 1: So there's that. We also wanted to pass along some

427
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 1: comments from the Bills coordinators who spoke to the media

428
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: this morning. Brian Dable, the offensive coordinator, naturally was asked

429
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 1: about taking a deeper dive into their red zone execution,

430
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: as the Bills currently ranked twenty sixth in the league

431
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,879
Speaker 1: and red zone touchdown efficiency, they want to make that better,

432
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,880
Speaker 1: even though point scoring has been anything but a problem

433
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: for this offense. So here is Brian Dable with his

434
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 1: take on the importance of execution down there once they

435
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 1: cracked the opponent's twenty yard line. It starts with details

436
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 1: and again, you know, I think we've had more snaps

437
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 1: than any team in the league and a red zone

438
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 1: or close to it particularly, and we've also got to

439
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,880
Speaker 1: buy the more you have, the more opportunities you get,

440
00:24:55,960 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 1: you'd like to capitalize all of them. Look, there's force

441
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:05,880
Speaker 1: area patterns, tighter coverages, shorter windows. Um, you know, that's

442
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,360
Speaker 1: that's the nature of the regiment. You got an extra

443
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: defender in the back line, UM, and your spacing has

444
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 1: to be really good and getting off and beating press coverage.

445
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 1: There's a lot of double teams down there usually, so

446
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,439
Speaker 1: there's a lot of things that go with it. Um,

447
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 1: you know, we work on it every week. We're certainly

448
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 1: going to try to improve, oh, that area of the

449
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 1: game along with everything else. So the Bills were two

450
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,639
Speaker 1: and five in the red zone and their loss to

451
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: the Titans in their last meeting with the Dolphins, that

452
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: is the only game this season in which they were

453
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 1: one hundred percent in the red zone. They were four

454
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: for four down there against the Dolphins. Zach Moss, who

455
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,280
Speaker 1: will have on the show in the second hour, had

456
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 1: two of those red zone conversions for touchdowns. Yeah, they

457
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 1: crushed the Dolphins last time they were. They were juggering

458
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,199
Speaker 1: on both defensively and offensively. They were all over those guys. Um,

459
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 1: you know, you don't hope, you hope the play carries over.

460
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,959
Speaker 1: You don't hope the attitude gets complacent. Uh. The Dolphins

461
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 1: have not looked good in five weeks and the Bill

462
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: I mean they were playing Jacksonville and Atlanta to not

463
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 1: very good football teams and could not escape with a win.

464
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:18,679
Speaker 1: This is I think there. I don't want to say

465
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 1: they could get healthy on the Dolphins, but you gotta

466
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,399
Speaker 1: think they've got to feel like they've got to be successful.

467
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 1: Otherwise maybe they do. Maybe they are in some trouble,

468
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. If you can't hear you,

469
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 1: you can't get above fifty percent, like go four or

470
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:36,640
Speaker 1: five or four of six, let alone three five, that's there. Yeah,

471
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,679
Speaker 1: that you gotta feel like, oh man, now what you know?

472
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,880
Speaker 1: What are we doing here? Um? This is a team

473
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,400
Speaker 1: that doesn't rush the passer very well, and their secondary

474
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 1: is being hung out to dry every single week because

475
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: they don't have a pass and plus they're being asked

476
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 1: to play man coverage. Somebody gonna get open. You got

477
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: too many guys, especially this group, Yeah, or the Bills

478
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 1: have too many guys so and the Dolphins don't have enough.

479
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: There's a little ones they have are nicked up and

480
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,199
Speaker 1: injured this week. Yeah, there's a little bit of that

481
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 1: ankst that. Man, if we don't do it against these guys,

482
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,199
Speaker 1: we do have some problems. All Right. We have to

483
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: take a break here because coming up next we'll be

484

Speaker 1: lineup presented by fan Duel. Make every moment more feel

492
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 1: How are you doing, gentlemen? I am doing well. It's

493
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 1: great to catch up to you. I hope you're with you,

494
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,160
Speaker 1: I should say, I hope you're both well rested coming

495
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 1: out of the bye week, which, for some reason, the

496
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,199
Speaker 1: byeweek always seems to go by a little faster than

497
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 1: a normal week. Perhaps it's so relaxing that it speeds

498
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: by in the blink of an eye, and next thing

499
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 1: you know, we're back on the hamster wheel and rocking

500
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 1: and rolling with the season. That's right, because you got

501
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 1: so much to do in the bye week, because you're

502
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 1: the schedules all messed up, so you got other stuff

503
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 1: you want to try and do. That's why the time

504
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: passes so fast, particularly here in Western New York at

505
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: this time, the leaves are falling, got yard work to do.

506
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: Then you can jump back in and roll downhill for

507
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: the rest of the season. It's what anything interesting happened

508
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: over the fantasy world last weekend. I thought that since

509
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: Nay Bengals had a pretty good game, Yeah, they sure

510
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: it did. They were incredibly impressive. Jamar Chase just continues

511
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 1: to do some ridiculous things. Looks like the front runner

512
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 1: by a long shot for the NFL's offensive Rookie of

513
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 1: the Year. The big story last week in fantasy, though,

514
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: was that you did not have six teams, which included

515
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: some heavy hitting players Josh Allen's Tawn Diggs amongst them,

516
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 1: Dawson Knox both through the to buy and the injury,

517
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders and Dak Prescott and Zekiel Elliott and you

518
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 1: get the point here. The list goes on and on

519
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 1: and on. People found a way to survive. But there

520
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: were many more low scoring efforts this past week and

521
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: fantasy and then we are normally accustomed to right and

522
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: I am going to be a victim in tonight's game

523
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: because Davante Adams is on the COVID reserve list. Field, No,

524
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 1: Allen Lazard, I mean, you really got to pay attention

525
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 1: to this stuff, especially for a midweek game. It's kind

526
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 1: of taken a little, you know. And now JJ Watts,

527
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: you know, out with a shoulder injury. It's kind of

528
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: taken a little of the luster off what looked to

529
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: be a banner Thursday night matchup between the six and

530
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: one Packers and the undefeated Cardinals. Yeah, in some ways

531
00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: this has the makings of a great matchup. Obvious, the

532
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: injuries have put a damper on it. That being said,

533
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: the two teams have a combined thirteen and one record,

534
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 1: which is the best winning percentage for any Thursday night

535
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,959
Speaker 1: football game in October or later. Ever, so still a

536
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 1: lot of appeal for this one. And we expect Davante

537
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: Adams and Alan Lazard and David Baktiri and Zadarius Smith

538
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: and eventually the Packers to get a lot healthier. So

539
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 1: this one could have some major ramifications further down the line,

540
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: especially as we all know there is now just one

541
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 1: buy available per conference, so this might be one of

542
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: those games that come January we are revisiting the outcome

543
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, we already and now not that this

544
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: is a big deal because he's not the party once was.

545
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 1: But JJ Wat's going to be out of this game.

546
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 1: He was just ruled out as a defensive lineman. Yeah,

547
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: it's a bummer for jj who for the first five

548
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: seasons of his career was just such an iron man.

549
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 1: He was playing on a high percentage of snaps, never

550
00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: missed time. Now his recent store he has involved a

551
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: lot of times spent on IR. If jj Watt does

552
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 1: not return, and because of the fact that the Cardinals

553
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: have playoff aspirations, we haven't slammed the door shut of

554
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: a January or maybe even early excuse me, late December

555
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 1: return for jj Watt certainly sounds unlikely. And if that's

556
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 1: the case, maybe the fourth time in the past six

557
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: seasons the jj Watt has landed on IR due to

558
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 1: a sea season ending injury ailment. Yeah, as a matter

559
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: of fact, he did do that successfully just a couple

560
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 1: of years ago. He came back from an injury and

561
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: played against the Bills in that wildcard game at the

562
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: end of the twenty nineteen season, and I can't remember it.

563
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 1: I don't think he had a gigantic impact in the game,

564
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: But you know, he's a force there, even if he's

565
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 1: only playing against the running can't get back there for passing.

566
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 1: All right, let's jump into the ultimate fantasy lineup. Enough

567
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 1: of this talk about real football. We want fantasy football.

568
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 1: So lead us off here. Quarterback, a guy that the

569
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: Bills are going to see in a couple of weeks. Yeah,

570
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 1: that's Trevor Lawrence, the number one overall pick in the

571
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 1: draft this year for the Jaguars. He's playing better of late,

572
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: and six thousand and seven hundred dollars is the salary.

573
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 1: But this is all about the matchup. Guys. He's playing

574
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 1: against the Seahawks defense. And we all remember the Legion

575
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: of Boom. It wasn't that long ago we were talking about.

576
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 1: This is one of the most ferocious defensive teams in

577
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: the NFL, and going to Seattle was a feared location.

578
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 1: That apparently is not the case anymore. Is Seattle is

579
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: owing three playing at home, and that defense is allowing

580
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: yards in not just bunches, but like hundreds and hundreds

581
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 1: of yard increments. They have just been so sloppy defensively

582
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: this year and not nearly enough secondary help right now

583
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 1: for the Seahawks to scare me in that matchup against

584
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, and then of course you spent big on

585
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: a running back once again. Is this a matchup for

586
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,560
Speaker 1: Austin Eckler. Yeah, this is a matchup for Austin Eckler

587
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: going against the Patriots. Eckler really talented guy. Anytime he's

588
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 1: on the field, he's averaging over nineteen Fantasy points and

589
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 1: fandel scoring guests you can see a salary is nearly

590
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 1: nine thousand bucks. But the Patriots have been solid defensively

591
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 1: for the most part this year, but their linebacker group

592
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: is not one that is sort of predicated upon speed.

593
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 1: They don't have a guy like a Matt Milano who

594
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 1: can run, you know, close to a running back. They're

595
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: more sort of the earlier thumping type linebackers. And Austin

596
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: Eckler is already one of the best pass catching running

597
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 1: backs in the NFL. You multiply that. But what I

598
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: think is a good matchup against those linebackers, and perhaps

599
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 1: he has a big day against the Patriots and what

600
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 1: could end up being a pretty high scoring effort. Yeah,

601
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: and speaking of that, this is interesting. I don't think

602
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: I've seen you do this yet with a fantasy lineup.

603
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: Your running backs are facing each other because you've got

604
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: Damien Harris going up against the Chargers defense that the

605
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: last time we saw them had the Browns hang forty

606
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 1: two on them even though they won. Yeah, and this

607
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 1: is a Chargers defense that the ailment right now is

608
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: they can't stop the run. They're dead last in the

609
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: NFL and rush yards per game allowed. They're dead last

610
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: in the NFL in terms of yards per carry allowed.

611
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 1: Damian Harris is a guy that has some old school

612
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 1: style out to him right. Reminds me of the backs

613
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 1: you'd see maybe during Steve's day more than you do today,

614
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 1: where these backs are getting paid to catch the football

615
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 1: as much as they are to run the football. But

616
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 1: Damian Harris a no nonsense runner, a guy who has

617
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 1: had some fumble issues this year. Be sure about that.

618
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 1: He fumbled all the way back in Week one, very

619
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: costly fumbled against the Houston Texans, unlike the one inch

620
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: yard line against a few weeks back as well, but

621
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: the Patriots have remained committed to him as their go

622
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,240
Speaker 1: to guy. I gotta figure part of the Patriots strategy

623
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,360
Speaker 1: is going to be to not just expose the Charger's weakness,

624
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: but also do something to take Justin Herbert or keep

625
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert off the field, and if you can ground

626
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,479
Speaker 1: control through Damian Harris, I think you have a decent

627
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: shot of doing that. And the next up you spent

628
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 1: big time and your highest paid players Cooper Cup, and

629
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: I get it, targets opportunities yards. He's having a monster season,

630
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 1: a lot like Stefan Diggs did a year ago for

631
00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. And I got a question for I guess,

632
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,960
Speaker 1: how do you know when the you know, do you

633
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,280
Speaker 1: just ride him until he doesn't have a good week

634
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: or do you just or do you just take your chances?

635
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 1: What's your philosophy about that? Because no question, Cooper Cup

636
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: is killing it. Yeah, that's right, Steve. And at this point,

637
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:18,879
Speaker 1: like you don't often see people in daily Fantasy attacking

638
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: with the highest paid player at his position, and yet

639
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 1: that's what we're doing with Cooper Cupp, who has been

640
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: really beyond Derrick Henry probably the most valuable player in

641
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 1: fantasy this year. He has been absolutely unstoppable. He's putting

642
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: up numbers that remember Randy Moss in two thousand and seven,

643
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,839
Speaker 1: that's the kind of numbers and pacing for Cooper Cup.

644
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: So far this year, which sounds ridiculous, but that really

645
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: is the case if you look at the per game split.

646
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 1: So Cooper Cup in a great matchup against to Houston Texans.

647
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,399
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep rolling the dice here because he has

648
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,879
Speaker 1: been incredible, and I actually can take you right through

649
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: my next two wide receivers because I was able to

650
00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 1: spend a lot this week really good players. Jamar Chase

651
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 1: number two and Jamar Chase probably needs no explanationist and

652
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,799
Speaker 1: why he's in my lineup. He's been unbelievable. But the

653
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 1: matchup is good as well. You know that Jets defense

654
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 1: got embarrassed last weekend, and you know the Jets were

655
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:16,839
Speaker 1: playing tough defensively through their first five games, but they

656
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:18,840
Speaker 1: seem to come back down to earth in a major

657
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 1: way this past Sunday against the Patriots. I don't know

658
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,959
Speaker 1: if it's just a personnounced for the Horses aren't there

659
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 1: for the New York Jets, But that seems like a team,

660
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 1: especially playing with his backup quarterback, is going to have

661
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 1: a hard time doing anything productively against the Bengals. And

662
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 1: then I'm excited for this next one. That's Jerry Judy.

663
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 1: It's six thousand dollars for the Denver Broncos. And I

664
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 1: think there's a chance you're getting a discount here on

665
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 1: Judy because he's been out. He's been out since Week

666
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 1: one when he suffered a high ankle sprain. There are

667
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 1: some concerns about a wide receiver coming back from a

668
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,879
Speaker 1: high ankle sprain, just because of the fact that he's

669
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 1: a route runner by trade. It's what he does best,

670
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 1: and you got to make sharp cuts with those ankles,

671
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 1: and you hope that his ankle holds up. That being said,

672
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: could there be a better matchup than Washington right now?

673
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 1: I had this conversation recently with one of my colleagues

674
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 1: on a show. Is that this Washington football defense has

675
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:10,280
Speaker 1: been bad. No one's debated that, but it's actually been underdiscussed.

676
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 1: This would be like if the Bills were scoring thirteen

677
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 1: points a game on offense, we would be all over

678
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 1: the Bills, right We'd be saying, we would be calling

679
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: for heads. The Washington defense is the worst in the NFL,

680
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,319
Speaker 1: and on paper, they have all this talent upfront, they

681
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 1: should make them much better. It has not been the case.

682
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,360
Speaker 1: And while they've been bad, you take full advantage of

683
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: another bad defense with your tight end and flex positions

684
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: going with two giants. That's right, And I want to

685
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: put a big, huge disclaimer on these two and Evan

686
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,880
Speaker 1: Ingram and that they got to play. We don't know

687
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:44,919
Speaker 1: as of right now if they will play. But Evan

688
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,400
Speaker 1: Ingram at five thousand, two hundred dollars and then Kadarius

689
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 1: Tony at five thousand, five hundred dollars in that flex spot,

690
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 1: you know, I just I think the opportunity is far

691
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: too right. Last week, Evan Ingram was busy because there

692
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 1: are so few guys around Nick and Darius Tony has

693
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 1: been awesome when he has played, and I understand why

694
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 1: Cadarius Tony might be a little bit discounted because we

695
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 1: haven't seen him dominate the touches for a prolonged period

696
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 1: of time. He get a two game stretch where he

697
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 1: was incredible. He was really good in the opening drive

698
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 1: of that third game that he played in a row,

699
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: and then he literally twisted his ankle on the opening

700
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,320
Speaker 1: drive after three catches. So you mentioned it too, Chris.

701
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,480
Speaker 1: It's a great matchup. The Chiefs right now can't stop anybody.

702
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,839
Speaker 1: I don't know what is going on there in Kansas City,

703
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 1: but it is simply a disaster on defense. So you

704
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 1: figured that this team in New York is going to

705
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 1: either be able to throw really effectively or they're gonna

706
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 1: have to play from behind, because I do think this

707
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 1: Chief's offense will have its way offensively, which sounds a

708
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 1: little bit crazy given how they've played recently, but I

709
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 1: think this is going to be a high scoring game

710
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: where at least two Giants pass catchers payoff. And then

711
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 1: the last matchup that you're going with Jacksonville Jaguars defense

712
00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 1: in Seattle a little bit of surprise here with Jacksonville

713
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 1: a one win team, but once again Seattle struggling with

714
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 1: their quarterback. Yeah they are, and it's hard to find

715
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,480
Speaker 1: a defensive value that you love. You don't love paying

716
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 1: up for a defense because it's really hard to score

717
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 1: and countdown scoring. But this Jaguars team coming off of

718
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: a week of rest, so perhaps getting a little bit

719
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:22,880
Speaker 1: healthier and should have plenty of time to have a

720
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 1: game plan in place for Gino Smith. And that's really

721
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:29,120
Speaker 1: the foul process here is that you know, this Seattle

722
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,320
Speaker 1: team has been a hard watch over the past couple

723
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: of weeks, and there was an amazing stat that on

724
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 1: Monday night, Gino Smith's first completion went eighty four yards

725
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:42,760
Speaker 1: a dk metcalf. Every other completion after that totaled eighty

726
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 1: three yards. So you take away what sort of a

727
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 1: random big play, it's hard to count on eighty plus

728
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 1: yard touchdowns taken place, And what it tells you is

729
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,200
Speaker 1: that this Seahawks offense has no explosive ability right now.

730
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:56,399
Speaker 1: Gino Smith under center, running game hasn't been great since

731
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,680
Speaker 1: Chris Carson got hurt. You know, the pass catchers DK

732
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,359
Speaker 1: Met that's been fine. But besides that, really nobody has

733
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 1: scared you. So along those lines, I'm rolling the dice

734
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 1: with the Jaguars defense and hoping for either a defensive

735
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 1: touchdown or a handful of sacks. All right, that is

736
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,280
Speaker 1: fields ultimate fantasy lineup presented by Fando will make every

737
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 1: moment more last thing real quick field on Bill's Dolphins.

738
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 1: I know you had a tweet about Gasicki and lining

739
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: up in the slot ninety four percent of his snaps

740
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 1: in the slaughter out wide. I don't think anybody expects

741
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 1: him to line up in line all that often? Is

742
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: he like similar to what the Chiefs do. It's basically

743
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 1: big ten personnel, not really eleven personnel with what these

744
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 1: tight ends do nowadays. Right, Yeah, it's a good a

745
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 1: way of putting it. He almost reminds me. He actually,

746
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 1: you guys will recall back in the day, Jimmy Graham

747
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 1: when he was at the Saints fought to have his

748
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 1: franchise tag designation as a wide receiver and not a

749
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 1: tight end because the way that he was utilized. I

750
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:58,279
Speaker 1: actually think that Mike Gisicki is more Jimmy Graham than

751
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham was himself back on day. Yeah, exceptional athlete.

752
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 1: I mean that from terms of utilization. But what Kasiki

753
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: does really really well is a lot of things, but

754
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 1: runs really well. He's got an incredible catch radius. He's

755
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,000
Speaker 1: actually a former high level volleyball player. You can see

756
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 1: his reach, his athletic ability, it all sort of shows

757
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: up like once you know he had a volleyball, volleyball background,

758
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 1: watching him, it all makes that much more sense. He's

759
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 1: a good player after the catch, good catch radius. You know,

760
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:33,439
Speaker 1: this Dolphins offense is not scaring many people, but if

761
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 1: the Bills are keen in on one guy comes Sunday,

762
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,960
Speaker 1: I really do believe it's Mike Kasiki. Yeah, and all

763
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 1: the more reason to keep an eye on him in

764
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 1: fantasy too, because he is in a contract here. He's

765
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: looking for that big second contract. So a motivated player

766
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 1: on the field every week if you're trying to put

767
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 1: a lineup together and you want to try to find

768
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 1: a matchup. So he may be limited, but they don't

769
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,319
Speaker 1: ask him to do anything he can't do. I mean,

770
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 1: they play to his strength, no question about it. I

771
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 1: think that's a smart move by the Dolphins coaching staff.

772
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 1: Thanks has always feel to be a preciate the time,

773
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 1: looking forward to a guys, talk to you next week.

774
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,760
Speaker 1: All right, we'll see you next week. That's Field Yates,

777
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:13,800
Speaker 1: take a break here, but be back with more of

778
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 1: your thoughts on the tweet sheet next here. On One

779
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:32,680
Speaker 1: Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health, it's Buffalo Bills Radio.

780
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 1: Welcome back to One Bill's Live. This week's game sponsor

781
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 1: Saint Bonaventure University, the official education partner of the Buffalo Bills,

782
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 1: ranked fifth in the North for value by US News

783
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,239
Speaker 1: and World Report Saint Bonaventure as a community committed to

784
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: transforming the lives of its students inside and outside the classroom.

785
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 1: Topic of discussion today, how must the Bills game plan

786
00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:00,359
Speaker 1: change for the second meeting with the Dolphins? Know they

787
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,279
Speaker 1: can't go with the same formula, although who knows it

788
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: might be almost as effective. Well, they probably will because

789
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:08,080
Speaker 1: they didn't get to use it because five plays in

790
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,480
Speaker 1: two is out and they got to Jacoby Brissette they

791
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: got to deal with. Right. If the plan change, I mean,

792
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,479
Speaker 1: I don't know if it don't need it to really,

793
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:24,319
Speaker 1: I guess you gotta ask yourself. Did Miami's plan change? Perhaps? Rabbit? Perhaps? Yeah,

794
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 1: I'm curious what you think. So you can call us

795
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,759
Speaker 1: at eight three five fifty one eighty eight five fifty

796
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:31,480
Speaker 1: two five fifty or hit us up on the tweet

797
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 1: sheet at one Bills Live. And that's where JT comments

798
00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:38,880
Speaker 1: and tweet sheet brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems,

799
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,239
Speaker 1: the official equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills. So

800
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:45,240
Speaker 1: JT says they don't have to change much except maybe

801
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 1: don't take penalties that are costing us points. But we

802
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 1: always put up beefy points on the Fins. Plus Miami's

803
00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:54,120
Speaker 1: pretty beat up. Both quarterbacks are still hurting, and they

804
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 1: have a few starting corners hurt. I think we smoke

805
00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: them again. Go Bills. Hashtag Hall of Fame eighty. That's

806
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: for you, Steve Oh, is it yes? Um? Yeah. The

807
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:08,840
Speaker 1: penalties are a problem, and I'd love to see us

808
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 1: play a little cleaner game. But I don't know. I

809
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:14,680
Speaker 1: like the aggression they show that they hurt you in

810
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 1: close games like they did against Tennessee. But they I

811
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,680
Speaker 1: know this too, and I'm I'm the first guy to

812
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 1: admit that I have an incredibly negative bias toward NFL officials,

813
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 1: But having seen and talked with them, the truth of

814
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 1: the matter intellectually, I'll tell you this. Those guys are

815
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,239
Speaker 1: trying to do their best out there every play, and

816
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:37,640
Speaker 1: they have no idea who's winning who's not. They don't

817
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:41,360
Speaker 1: even care what the score is. It's hard, it's really hard,

818
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:44,759
Speaker 1: and they really the mindset they have for I've said

819
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 1: this before in the show and the years. My years

820
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 1: was CBS, when when I didn't have skin in the

821
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:50,360
Speaker 1: games of the games I was doing I was, I

822
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 1: would interact with the officials really impressive group of guys,

823
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 1: because they really are doing a job that's really difficult

824
00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 1: to do in front of a lot of people, under

825
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:01,399
Speaker 1: all a lot of pressure, with a lot of people

826
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 1: breathing down their necks on both sidelines. So their mindset

827
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,799
Speaker 1: is not to be biased or unfair in any other way.

828
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,160
Speaker 1: They want to get every play right. And the thing

829
00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 1: that gets fans is that if they make a mistake

830
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:17,240
Speaker 1: on the last play, they're better than an NFL corner

831
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:20,839
Speaker 1: at flushing it down the toilet. They the next they

832
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 1: gotta get the next one right. It's not a makeup call.

833
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 1: They don't try and get fair, they don't try and

834
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 1: give the other team a break, none of that. They

835
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:31,240
Speaker 1: go try and go fair from where they are right now.

836
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 1: And sometimes it's really hard to believe they do that,

837
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:38,600
Speaker 1: but I'm sure I know it is. I know they

838
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:42,080
Speaker 1: do and don't. I didn't mean to get off on

839
00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:47,719
Speaker 1: a little tangent on the on the officiating, but they've

840
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,920
Speaker 1: been a problem for the Bills. They have. They've been

841
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 1: mentioned on this show earlier this week. The Bills are

842
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:56,439
Speaker 1: eighth in the league in total assessed penalties against them.

843
00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 1: It's not even counting all the penalties that were called,

844
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 1: just the ones that we're s that decline ones not

845
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,960
Speaker 1: counting towards that total their eighth in the league for

846
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 1: most penalties assessed. I'm sure in the bye week they

847
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:10,240
Speaker 1: address that and intend to talk to the team about

848
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 1: that to try to clean that up. Effort penalties. As

849
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 1: Steve said, you can deal with the unforced errors, pre

850
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,439
Speaker 1: snap penalties, those kinds of things which drive coaches nuts.

851
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,040
Speaker 1: Cole on the tweet sheet says, I don't think this

852
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 1: team needs to change a thing. Keep doing what's got

853
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:27,200
Speaker 1: us here. Win by one or fifty, it still counts

854
00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:29,359
Speaker 1: as a win. Still, just win the ball game at

855
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 1: all costs. No such thing as an ugly win in

856
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,919
Speaker 1: this league, all right, I mean, I get it. Jack

857
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 1: says the they have to minimize mistakes like last time

858
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 1: they should jump on the fisher early, build a lead

859
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 1: and harassed too early and often. Hopefully this game they

860
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:44,759
Speaker 1: can build more of a rhythm in the passing game.

861
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:49,560
Speaker 1: Testing the Fishies banged up secondary Yeah, Both starting corners

862
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:53,240
Speaker 1: Xavian Howard and Byron Jones dealing with some injuries limited

863
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 1: in practice yesterday. Some of their other defensive backs are

864
00:46:56,640 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 1: also nicked up. So they're limping into this one to

865
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,440
Speaker 1: a certain extent. How many of them will be one

866
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:04,719
Speaker 1: hundred percent for the game, We do not know. It

867
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,319
Speaker 1: makes you wonder, you know, if you have corners that

868
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:08,880
Speaker 1: you have to put on the field that you know

869
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:10,640
Speaker 1: are in one hundred percent, are you putting them in

870
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: man to man the whole time? You might have to

871
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,799
Speaker 1: change your coverage scheme a little bit, you'd put them

872
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,799
Speaker 1: in zone. They haven't yet, No, but I'm wondering if

873
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 1: injuries changes the conversation. Probably not. The Bills beat him

874
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:27,040
Speaker 1: thirty five nothing last time. Yeah, when they were healthy. Yeah,

875
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: I don't know it, Um, I don't know. It's it's

876
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:33,799
Speaker 1: that's what you always go into the game thinking. You

877
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,440
Speaker 1: think they're gonna change something, tweak something, and usually they

878
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:42,000
Speaker 1: do some. But yeah, the Bills have got to be

879
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:43,680
Speaker 1: hit firing up. I think the Bills got to fire

880
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:45,600
Speaker 1: on all cylinders. They're gonna get a supreme effort from

881
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,719
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, I think. And I'm desperate. I'd like yeah,

882
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:50,719
Speaker 1: I would love to say. I'd love to say, Hey,

883
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 1: Bill's gonna win by fifty. They're gonna hang a you know,

884
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:57,480
Speaker 1: a fifty burger or forty Burger. I don't know, it's

885
00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 1: gonna be hard game to play, and the conditions will

886
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:01,759
Speaker 1: have something to say about it. We know, we got

887
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 1: this weather system moving through the area from Tomorrow, Friday

888
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,239
Speaker 1: through Saturday and Sunday. There's gonna be a little bit

889
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,640
Speaker 1: of bad weather at least for part of the game.

890
00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:15,880
Speaker 1: Probably really because I thought I saw that it was

891
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 1: supposed to stop by kickoff, but maybe not. It might

892
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:22,320
Speaker 1: Oh it might love that. I don't know. But yeah,

893
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:26,760
Speaker 1: there's a weather between now today, Thursday afternoon and Sunday.

894
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a bad weather system moving through now.

895
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 1: If it hesitates or gives us the pump fake and

896
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:35,799
Speaker 1: hangs around for a while, it's gonna be another one

897
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:39,640
Speaker 1: of these stupid rain soggy. We've had two of or

898
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 1: three of them already. It rained a little bit in

899
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 1: Miami and week two. It just stinks. I just want

900
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:46,800
Speaker 1: to see a game, like you know, you want to

901
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 1: see a game in good weather, right, and you usually

902
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 1: come to expect that, at least in the first half

903
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:53,560
Speaker 1: of the season. You know, it usually gets a pretty

904
00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 1: good weather. You get past Thanksgiving, all bets are off,

905
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,680
Speaker 1: you know, and so if you get a day like that. Okay,

906
00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:01,440
Speaker 1: you expect that, but not now, not that you know,

907
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,120
Speaker 1: you're not. First half of the season, it's pretty good here.

908
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 1: It kind of stinks though, because you got a really

909
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:06,919
Speaker 1: good team and say you're gonna go in and play

910
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 1: you had to play him here and our stadium is

911
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,319
Speaker 1: outdoor and what could be cruddy weather in the second

912
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:13,640
Speaker 1: half of the season, and you're gonna go play them,

913
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,000
Speaker 1: which is even worse. And it's a Monday night game

914
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 1: at night in December. What the heck? I know, So

915
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 1: give us a you know whatever. New Orleans will probably

916
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:27,759
Speaker 1: have good conditions. I'm thinking both teams are playing in it.

917
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:29,840
Speaker 1: Whatever I get. All right, we have to take a

918
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:33,040
Speaker 1: break here. Second hour of the show coming up, and

919
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 1: in that second hour we will be bringing you Bill's

920
00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:38,320
Speaker 1: running back Zach Moss, who will be joining us fresh

921
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,520
Speaker 1: off the field as part of our Austin Air segment.

922
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:43,960
Speaker 1: We will get him to you as he will not

923
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 1: only talk about coming out of the bye week getting

924
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,040
Speaker 1: ready for Miami against him he had a salad game

925
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,680
Speaker 1: in week two, but also his new clothing line. So

926
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,279
Speaker 1: we'll be talking about that with Zach Moss in the

927
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,319
Speaker 1: second hour the program. It's all coming up next. You're

928
00:49:57,360 --> 00:49:59,520
Speaker 1: on One Bill's Live presented by Kalid to Health. It's

929
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills Radio at a Steve Tasker who has been

930
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 1: all over the fields. Kind of unique. He was kind

931
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 1: of a dual role fighters for you, Steve, Steve a blimp.

932
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 1: We're not even in the strated fear of normalcy. There

933
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 1: we are our number two on a Thursday Chris Brown

934
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:43,760
Speaker 1: Speed chapter with you inching ever closer to the return

935
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,319
Speaker 1: to the playing field following a bye week for your

936
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:53,000
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills, and we are talking about how the game

937
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:57,799
Speaker 1: plan has to change the second time around here as

938
00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:01,000
Speaker 1: the Bills face their division rival, the Dolls for the

939
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 1: second time this season. Interesting that they're playing the Dolphins

940
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:06,800
Speaker 1: twice before they play any of the other division teams.

941
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 1: No Jets, no Patriots. They will have played Miami twice Patriots. Similarly,

942
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 1: they've already played the Jets twice before any other Bills play.

943
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:17,319
Speaker 1: They did play the Dolphins in Week one, but they

944
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,919
Speaker 1: played the Jets twice already. Haven't played the Bills yet. Right,

945
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:23,800
Speaker 1: And the Bills play the Patriots on the first weekend

946
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,879
Speaker 1: in December and then play them on the last week

947
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:30,240
Speaker 1: of December. With the Bucks and Panthers and mixed in between.

948
00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:33,200
Speaker 1: So they play them quick, and then the Jets there

949
00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:34,759
Speaker 1: they're gonna be up in a couple of weeks, and

950
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:38,040
Speaker 1: then they get them on week seventeen again. So yeah,

951
00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:39,680
Speaker 1: it is kind of a quirky thing where you get

952
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:41,759
Speaker 1: rid of the Dolphins quick in the schedule, or at

953
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:43,719
Speaker 1: least first half of the schedule before you see any

954
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:50,239
Speaker 1: other division opponent. Yeah, I don't even think now that

955
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,440
Speaker 1: you go back, I don't even think the Dolphins think

956
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:56,160
Speaker 1: about it. The Dolphins game that the Patriots played. You

957
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: kind of look at common opponents and that won't even

958
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:03,640
Speaker 1: help the Patriots or the Bills. A Week one game

959
00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 1: where the Dolphins won by a point, you know. I

960
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 1: mean it'll be in the cutups. But you don't learn

961
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,680
Speaker 1: anything from that, right, I mean, too much has changed

962
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 1: between now and everything's changed your whole Yeah, your team

963
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:17,879
Speaker 1: is a different team by then. It's just the nature

964
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:22,680
Speaker 1: of seasons unfold because usually that the inter interdivisional games,

965
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 1: you can kind of glean some information from the other

966
00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:27,359
Speaker 1: games that you played, Like they played this team, they

967
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:29,479
Speaker 1: played that team we played three weeks ago, they played

968
00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:31,359
Speaker 1: him last week. You know what I mean, so there's

969
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,040
Speaker 1: you know, same players, same kind of vibe coming from

970
00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:36,920
Speaker 1: the team. Now it's it's like a different season almost.

971
00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:40,200
Speaker 1: Let's go to the phones at eight three five fifty

972
00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 1: eight five fifty two five fifty. You got Faz in

973
00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,920
Speaker 1: Tucson waiting for us. What do you have? You're on

974
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 1: one Bills Live. Hey guys, it's actually Fause. Sorry, was

975
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:54,759
Speaker 1: on that seventy show, Gotcha and the phone numbers two sons,

976
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:56,120
Speaker 1: But I live in Shoot the Wild guy. I just

977
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,080
Speaker 1: wanted to say, hey, I had a chance to watch

978
00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:00,479
Speaker 1: the show today. And as far as the game plan

979
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:04,080
Speaker 1: for especially the Dolphins, but the next three weeks, I

980
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:07,439
Speaker 1: don't think they should do anything different but just play

981
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:13,000
Speaker 1: dropping the hammer because if we start rescuing Isaac excuse me,

982
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,280
Speaker 1: in the third quarter, we're not going to be prepared

983
00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,440
Speaker 1: for that back end of the schedule when we get

984
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:22,279
Speaker 1: to Saints and the Buccaneers. I had another question for

985
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:27,040
Speaker 1: you regarding trades and do you foresee the Bills getting

986
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:30,880
Speaker 1: rid of anybody such as Gabe Davis or Isaiah McKenzie

987
00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:34,719
Speaker 1: or Matt Breeder. I would say no on all three

988
00:53:34,719 --> 00:53:41,560
Speaker 1: of those players. You have to be very careful in

989
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 1: this league of stripping your team of valuable depth. Gabriel

990
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:49,680
Speaker 1: Davis is a player that is going to have a

991
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,640
Speaker 1: much larger role as early as next year because there's

992
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,319
Speaker 1: a very good chance Immanuel Sanders is not here next year. Yeah,

993
00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:57,520
Speaker 1: Manuel saying it's on a one year deal, so I

994
00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: would expect Gabriel Davis to be the hop candidate to

995
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,520
Speaker 1: replace him in the lineup next season. Not to mention

996
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 1: the fact that next year Cole Beasley enters the final

997
00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:10,920
Speaker 1: year of his contract. McKenzie is also a free agent.

998
00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:13,920
Speaker 1: McKenzie is about seven years younger than Beasley, and I'm

999
00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:16,560
Speaker 1: not saying he's Beasley, but he would be a good

1000
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:19,680
Speaker 1: candidate to replace him in the slot, so, you know,

1001
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,080
Speaker 1: after the twenty two season, because Beasley began even the

1002
00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 1: last year of his deal next year and he's thirty

1003
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,920
Speaker 1: and he's thirty three, right. I also have thought about

1004
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 1: what you said early on about you know you don't

1005
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,960
Speaker 1: want to rest these guys. Listen, I disagree with it.

1006
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:34,919
Speaker 1: I said this earlier in the week. You know, it'd

1007
00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:39,200
Speaker 1: be great if these you know, we can will the

1008
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:42,000
Speaker 1: Bills not be as prepared to play in the playoffs

1009
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:44,839
Speaker 1: because they have a soft schedule, they will be listen, no,

1010
00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:48,920
Speaker 1: that's not they will be prepared to play in the playoffs.

1011
00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:51,040
Speaker 1: In fact, they'll be in better shape because of the

1012
00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:52,839
Speaker 1: fact that they'll be fresher. And if you can rest

1013
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:54,840
Speaker 1: a guy for a quarter or a quarter and a

1014
00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:57,520
Speaker 1: half or an entire half of football, you do it

1015
00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:01,359
Speaker 1: particularly an important piece, because not only does he get

1016
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,759
Speaker 1: rest and come back refreshed, ready to play the next

1017
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:05,719
Speaker 1: week and in fact chomping at the bit to get

1018
00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:09,359
Speaker 1: more time, the guys who play in his place will

1019
00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:11,879
Speaker 1: be more prepared if they're needed or when they're needed,

1020
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:13,440
Speaker 1: and he may find some things out about them that

1021
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:17,040
Speaker 1: may help you in the playoffs. Being fresh is way

1022
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:21,840
Speaker 1: more important to playing well in the playoffs than having

1023
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,919
Speaker 1: one a tight ball game against a good football team,

1024
00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 1: because all these teams are good, and they're all going

1025
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:29,720
Speaker 1: to present challenges and they're all gonna get you ready.

1026
00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:34,239
Speaker 1: Being fresh in the playoffs is way more important than

1027
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:37,920
Speaker 1: having to have gone through a really tough schedule of

1028
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:39,800
Speaker 1: a bunch of games where you had to fight and

1029
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,959
Speaker 1: claw and scratch play every down to its full. Being

1030
00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:45,000
Speaker 1: fresh is going to be better because you gotta it

1031
00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:48,080
Speaker 1: takes a lot to win these games. That in itself

1032
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:49,880
Speaker 1: is enough to prepare you for what it is in

1033
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:54,040
Speaker 1: the playoffs and improve yourself. Being fresh is more important

1034
00:55:55,120 --> 00:56:01,120
Speaker 1: than having a rougher schedule, because the rougher not just

1035
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:02,400
Speaker 1: for the fact that you may not make it to

1036
00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:04,279
Speaker 1: the playoffs, but the fact that you're gonna make it

1037
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:06,080
Speaker 1: to the playoffs, you're gonna be fresher doing it. You

1038
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:08,359
Speaker 1: Still it's hard to win in this league, whether you're

1039
00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:11,120
Speaker 1: playing a schedule like Buffalo has this year or schedule

1040
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:15,440
Speaker 1: like they had last year. We wanted to get to

1041
00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:20,960
Speaker 1: some comments from defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier because we had

1042
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:23,279
Speaker 1: those queued up earlier in the show ran out of time.

1043
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:25,680
Speaker 1: I want to take our opportunity now to bring those

1044
00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:29,720
Speaker 1: to you, and obviously to Tanga. Ioloa has played better

1045
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:31,799
Speaker 1: in each of the last two games. Had some ugly

1046
00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 1: interceptions last week certainly didn't help the cause from that standpoint,

1047
00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 1: but did complete over seventy five percent of his passes.

1048
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:42,359
Speaker 1: Obviously their high percentage throws because they rarely throw more

1049
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:46,200
Speaker 1: than fifteen twenty yards down the field, but his play

1050
00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:48,880
Speaker 1: has improved. I don't know that I would pin the

1051
00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:51,000
Speaker 1: loss on him last week because when he left the field,

1052
00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:53,719
Speaker 1: his team had the lead and they couldn't protect it

1053
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,160
Speaker 1: when all was said and done. Couldn't do it against

1054
00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:59,200
Speaker 1: Jacksonville either the week before in the London game. So

1055
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:04,240
Speaker 1: here is Leslie Fraser's take on the improvements that Tua

1056
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,879
Speaker 1: has made the last few games. He's really improved. When

1057
00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:10,120
Speaker 1: I put the tape on and begin to watch, I

1058
00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:13,040
Speaker 1: saw a guy who's playing with a lot of confidence.

1059
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:17,200
Speaker 1: He's making some great throws and some tough situations and

1060
00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:20,400
Speaker 1: show some toughness as well, you know, even when the

1061
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:23,520
Speaker 1: pocket collapses around and he's still still standing there and

1062
00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:26,600
Speaker 1: make those throws and make some accurate throws. So he's

1063
00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:29,520
Speaker 1: grown as a player, and he's still growing and hasn't

1064
00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:32,200
Speaker 1: building to be able to see coverages. Now he's gotten

1065
00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 1: so much better being able to identify where the balls

1066
00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:39,200
Speaker 1: should go from the quarterback position. So yeah, he's grown,

1067
00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 1: he's improved, and you know, we'll have our work cut

1068
00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:46,919
Speaker 1: out for his the sound. Yeah, so there is improvement there.

1069
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:49,640
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that two is suddenly a world beater,

1070
00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:53,560
Speaker 1: but he is playing better and he's clearly established a

1071
00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:57,800
Speaker 1: rapport with slot receiver Jalen Waddle former Alabama teammates and

1072
00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 1: makes sense. And he also has a rapport with Mike Kisiki.

1073
00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:03,720
Speaker 1: Those are his two favorite targets. DeVante Parker has been

1074
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:04,920
Speaker 1: in and out of the lineup. We don't know what

1075
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:07,600
Speaker 1: his status is going to be for Sunday, Yet he

1076
00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:10,760
Speaker 1: is he's a threat just because of the size and

1077
00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:14,920
Speaker 1: speed athlete that he is. And you know Preston Williams

1078
00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:17,760
Speaker 1: is a size athlete also. So I mean they have talent,

1079
00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:20,680
Speaker 1: as coach McDermott said yesterday, I mean it is a

1080
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:23,280
Speaker 1: team that has talent on the roster. For whatever reason,

1081
00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:25,560
Speaker 1: all the pieces just haven't been able to fit together

1082
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:27,160
Speaker 1: as well as they at home. Yeah, that's right. You

1083
00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:30,000
Speaker 1: feel like they've got enough tools or weapons to win games.

1084
00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:32,040
Speaker 1: I don't think two has been supported well enough. His

1085
00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:34,760
Speaker 1: running game hasn't been good enough. And for me, and

1086
00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:37,920
Speaker 1: we've talked about this at length, it comes down to

1087
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:40,840
Speaker 1: their offensive line and their defensive line. They have not

1088
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:43,600
Speaker 1: won the line of scrimmage enough. So TWA has to

1089
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:45,960
Speaker 1: get rid of the ball quick. People are criticizing two

1090
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:47,920
Speaker 1: and now the only reason really is because they don't

1091
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:50,360
Speaker 1: push the ball down the field. Believe me, the ball

1092
00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,200
Speaker 1: has to come out or two is going down. You

1093
00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:55,160
Speaker 1: saw it in the first game with Buffalo. They were

1094
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:56,720
Speaker 1: coming off the edge. Two out of the first three

1095
00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 1: plays from scrimmage from Miami's offense, two is on the

1096
00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:01,439
Speaker 1: ground and on the ground hard. And on the fifth

1097
00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:04,600
Speaker 1: play from scrimmage, he's out of the game. That's a problem,

1098
00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:06,400
Speaker 1: and that's where it starts. And really, for me, that's

1099
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:08,800
Speaker 1: the start and finish of the Miami problems right now.

1100
00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:10,880
Speaker 1: It's they were playing a couple of games with a

1101
00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:15,720
Speaker 1: backup quarterback in Jacoby Brissett because their offensive line got

1102
00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:19,520
Speaker 1: their number one quarterback jacked up, and their defensive line

1103
00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:21,920
Speaker 1: can't rush the passer well enough to give their defensive

1104
00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:25,240
Speaker 1: secondary any help. If you want to know what Miami's

1105
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:28,080
Speaker 1: going through, that's it right there. Bill's fans can relate

1106
00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:30,320
Speaker 1: to it. We went through it, you know. Twenty eighteen,

1107
00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:33,680
Speaker 1: same thing with Joshua rookie quarterback. The offensive line wasn't

1108
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:36,520
Speaker 1: good enough, the offense, the running game couldn't support him,

1109
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:38,880
Speaker 1: and josh is out there playing hero ball, trying to

1110
00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:41,160
Speaker 1: win games, and you know, you got criticized for it.

1111
00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:44,680
Speaker 1: And that's kind of where Tua is right now. In

1112
00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:46,720
Speaker 1: my opinion, not to the same extent of the hero

1113
00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:49,480
Speaker 1: ball thing, but the same kind of criticism is being

1114
00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:51,760
Speaker 1: leveled at him, and I don't think it's a lot

1115
00:59:51,800 --> 00:59:54,000
Speaker 1: of it is his fault, yeah, and a lot of

1116
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,760
Speaker 1: it has fallen on him because even their run game

1117
00:59:56,840 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 1: has been unproductive. I mean, you were talking about watching

1118
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:03,360
Speaker 1: a Dolphins game from last week or the week prior,

1119
01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:06,600
Speaker 1: and Miles Gaskin is getting almost all his rushing yards

1120
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:09,600
Speaker 1: by himself because he's getting jacked up before he even

1121
01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:12,120
Speaker 1: gets to the line of scrimmage. He's got arms grabbing

1122
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:14,240
Speaker 1: at him, people getting in at him because the run

1123
01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:18,360
Speaker 1: blocking has been insufficient. So a lot of it is

1124
01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:22,880
Speaker 1: on Tooa and human nature for guys that play that

1125
01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:26,360
Speaker 1: position very often is well, I gotta make something happen

1126
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,600
Speaker 1: here because nobody else is able to make something happen,

1127
01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:31,320
Speaker 1: and then you can fall into the trap of trying

1128
01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:33,000
Speaker 1: to do too much, and then that's when you make

1129
01:00:33,040 --> 01:00:35,600
Speaker 1: a mistake. And that's what happened on his second interception

1130
01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:38,640
Speaker 1: last week. He's getting hit in the pocket, he's falling,

1131
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:41,880
Speaker 1: and he still tries to score to pass out there underneath.

1132
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:45,000
Speaker 1: It's it's horribly inaccurate because he's been hit as he's

1133
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,200
Speaker 1: throwing and he tries to let it go anyway and

1134
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:51,280
Speaker 1: it ends up in an interception. So yeah, it's yeah,

1135
01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:54,480
Speaker 1: we've seen in him, you know, I mean football fancy this.

1136
01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:56,680
Speaker 1: You know, if your offensive line can't protect you, it

1137
01:00:56,680 --> 01:00:59,120
Speaker 1: becomes it's a ripple effect. The ball has to come

1138
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:02,919
Speaker 1: out fast, you're your passing game has to look like that.

1139
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:05,960
Speaker 1: You got defensive backs not believing you're gonna throw over

1140
01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:07,920
Speaker 1: their heads, so they don't backpedal at all. They kind

1141
01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 1: of hang in tough around the line of scrimmage and

1142
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 1: trying jump routes. And if you're running, if your offensive

1143
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:14,840
Speaker 1: line can't win the line of scrimmage, you can't run

1144
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:16,520
Speaker 1: the ball to back people in or pack it in

1145
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:19,200
Speaker 1: and give some room in the back end, or use

1146
01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:21,320
Speaker 1: the play action to give your quarterback just a hair

1147
01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 1: more time. None of it's working. So that's where Miami's

1148
01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:28,560
Speaker 1: offense is right now, and their defense the ripple effects

1149
01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:30,360
Speaker 1: just the opposite of that. They can't rush the passer

1150
01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:32,280
Speaker 1: and can't hold the line of scrimmage, so teams are

1151
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:34,840
Speaker 1: moving the football on them like it's like it's the

1152
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:39,160
Speaker 1: D five hundred. Yeah, the Bills had good performances from

1153
01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:42,160
Speaker 1: several players in the Week two matchup with the Dolphins.

1154
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:44,600
Speaker 1: One of them was Greg Rousseau, who was part of

1155
01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:47,760
Speaker 1: that pass rush parade. They got six sacks on Dolphins

1156
01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:51,400
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in that Week two game. Coach Frasier weighed in

1157
01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:55,480
Speaker 1: on how much improvement Rousseau has made to his personal

1158
01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:59,520
Speaker 1: game since those early stages of this his rookie season.

1159
01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 1: You know, just a pause that he plays with as

1160
01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:05,520
Speaker 1: much as anything, how composed it is on the field

1161
01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:08,400
Speaker 1: as a as a rookie, you know, you look for

1162
01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:14,040
Speaker 1: some fluctuations and this performance or and his approach to practice, uh,

1163
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:16,560
Speaker 1: you know, how how he handles things in the meeting rooms,

1164
01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:19,040
Speaker 1: because sometimes those rookies, at some point they hit a

1165
01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:21,919
Speaker 1: rookie wall and they just kind of take a step back.

1166
01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:24,320
Speaker 1: But so far that hasn't happened for Greg. You know,

1167
01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:27,960
Speaker 1: he's been very consistent. Uh, you know, plays with great

1168
01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:32,280
Speaker 1: energy and just seem to handle the moments extremely well.

1169
01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:34,880
Speaker 1: They don't ever get too big for him, and that's

1170
01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 1: sometimes rare for a rookie. So it's just really been

1171
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:41,360
Speaker 1: impressed that part of his game, just how under control

1172
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:44,760
Speaker 1: he is and how he can manage all the information

1173
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:48,280
Speaker 1: and all the noise that comes with some success that

1174
01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:53,600
Speaker 1: he's had. I will say this, Rousseau and Epinessa, they

1175
01:02:53,640 --> 01:02:56,520
Speaker 1: seem like very even killed kind of players. You have

1176
01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 1: your emotional leaders, guys who get pumped up at you know,

1177
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:02,840
Speaker 1: like Lawyer gets jacked up emotionally out there on the field.

1178
01:03:02,840 --> 01:03:05,360
Speaker 1: You can see it even Tremaine every once in a while. Yeah,

1179
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:07,200
Speaker 1: that tackle for lost in the Kansas City game, he

1180
01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:12,000
Speaker 1: was pumped um. Rousseau and Epinessa are just like, go

1181
01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:14,160
Speaker 1: about their business guys, you know what I mean. Like

1182
01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,760
Speaker 1: they're not jumping around. You know, they're not doing a

1183
01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:19,040
Speaker 1: gas too after a sack or something, you know, with

1184
01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:21,439
Speaker 1: some kind of sack dance. They're just just out They're

1185
01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:25,680
Speaker 1: doing their thing. Yeah, I think I think it translates

1186
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:28,840
Speaker 1: to them to them just being kind of wise beyond

1187
01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:32,000
Speaker 1: their years. I mean, I don't know, maybe I'm guessing,

1188
01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:34,160
Speaker 1: but that's just the vibe I get from them watching

1189
01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:36,520
Speaker 1: them out on the field. You know, it's interesting somebody's

1190
01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:39,360
Speaker 1: you see these great defenses and they all have somebody

1191
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:43,080
Speaker 1: on that defense that is a kind of a you know,

1192
01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:45,600
Speaker 1: kind of the face of the defense who's got an

1193
01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:49,520
Speaker 1: attitude spark plug guy. Yes, yes, a firestart or something

1194
01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:52,800
Speaker 1: like that. Right, So, and I don't see any of

1195
01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:54,960
Speaker 1: the defensive linemen in that room because there's eight of

1196
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:56,760
Speaker 1: them that rotate through. It's not like they're out there

1197
01:03:56,760 --> 01:03:59,400
Speaker 1: the entire time and are part of every big play.

1198
01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 1: It comes more from Edmonds and Milano being in the

1199
01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:04,880
Speaker 1: middle of it. And then pour your in hide as well.

1200
01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:07,600
Speaker 1: These young guys plus two and in their second year

1201
01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:12,360
Speaker 1: saying it year for Epan as a first year for Rousseau,

1202
01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 1: I think they're still just kind of looking around, going, Okay,

1203
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:18,240
Speaker 1: you know what, what could I get away with here?

1204
01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:21,439
Speaker 1: You know, as far as saying something, Do I have

1205
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:24,440
Speaker 1: the you know, do I have the presence in the

1206
01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:26,280
Speaker 1: locker room? Yet a voice in the locker room that

1207
01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:27,800
Speaker 1: would allow me to kind of speak up when I

1208
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:30,400
Speaker 1: want to speak up? It takes a while. I've said

1209
01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:34,720
Speaker 1: it a a lot the NFL. It's a tough crowd.

1210
01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:37,280
Speaker 1: In an NFL locker room or in an NFL team meeting,

1211
01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:39,080
Speaker 1: you gotta have a special head coach. You can stand

1212
01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:41,240
Speaker 1: up a command a room like that, and you've got

1213
01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:43,360
Speaker 1: to earn your voice in the locker room as well.

1214
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:45,320
Speaker 1: And I think it's a little too early for both

1215
01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:47,320
Speaker 1: of those guys to maybe say that they're going to

1216
01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:51,000
Speaker 1: be one of those vocal leaders. May happen very much so,

1217
01:04:51,560 --> 01:04:53,400
Speaker 1: but I don't think they're there yet. I think they

1218
01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 1: they're just too young in their career and they're still

1219
01:04:56,880 --> 01:05:00,600
Speaker 1: making their own identity for themselves, let alone their tea.

1220
01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:04,480
Speaker 1: Our twitter conversation today was how much how must the

1221
01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:07,360
Speaker 1: Bill's game plan change for the second meeting with the Dolphins,

1222
01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:09,919
Speaker 1: knowing that no two game plans are ever the same,

1223
01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:13,200
Speaker 1: and John on the tweet sheet says the offensive plan

1224
01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:15,720
Speaker 1: was fine. Alan was still shaking off rust as the

1225
01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:18,479
Speaker 1: game started, but the dime to Sanders and the role

1226
01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:22,160
Speaker 1: right throw left to fourteen showed he was fine running game,

1227
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:25,000
Speaker 1: got going on D two and never recognized defensive back

1228
01:05:25,040 --> 01:05:28,240
Speaker 1: blitzes need a new plan. This time, the Fish completed

1229
01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:31,920
Speaker 1: crossing routes over the middle until forty nine cramped up

1230
01:05:31,960 --> 01:05:37,960
Speaker 1: in fifty four came on. So yeah, I mean, you

1231
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:40,080
Speaker 1: can be just as aggressive. You're just gonna have to

1232
01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:44,520
Speaker 1: do it in different ways in terms of attacking toa

1233
01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:46,640
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean you can't test him with a dB

1234
01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:50,120
Speaker 1: blitz somewhere to see if he learned from week two.

1235
01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:52,400
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's expecting it. I think one of the

1236
01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:54,600
Speaker 1: things we don't see two ry for it is get

1237
01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:58,560
Speaker 1: outside the pocket. You kind of know where he's going

1238
01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:03,120
Speaker 1: to be. I haven't watched a ton of Miami games yet,

1239
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:06,120
Speaker 1: but he strikes me as a guy the ball's coming

1240
01:06:06,120 --> 01:06:10,880
Speaker 1: out fast that if they're gonna do that, and that's

1241
01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:12,480
Speaker 1: gonna be part of the thing, and he's not gonna

1242
01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:14,520
Speaker 1: and you're not gonna force him to pull the ball down,

1243
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:17,080
Speaker 1: maybe you will try and do that. Get a guy

1244
01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:18,680
Speaker 1: in his throwing lane, get your arms up and get

1245
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:20,560
Speaker 1: a guy like Rousseau and these big, tall guys up there.

1246
01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:23,479
Speaker 1: Maybe he'll hesitate and you can get a sack that way.

1247
01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:27,120
Speaker 1: But if the if the Dolphins are gonna insist on

1248
01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:31,400
Speaker 1: having the ball come out on rhythm, it limits what

1249
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:33,360
Speaker 1: your pass rush is going to be able to do

1250
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:37,400
Speaker 1: because there's just no way to get home that fast

1251
01:06:37,240 --> 01:06:39,720
Speaker 1: at every play. So you got to you gotta do

1252
01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:43,400
Speaker 1: it a different way. And I think that a lot

1253
01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:47,000
Speaker 1: of that falls on the secondary shutting off that first lane,

1254
01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:48,880
Speaker 1: having him pat the ball and have to go to

1255
01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:50,840
Speaker 1: his second read. And once he does that, then maybe

1256
01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:53,800
Speaker 1: you get him on the ground. So I think it

1257
01:06:54,120 --> 01:06:56,640
Speaker 1: comes in play where your secondary has to step up.

1258
01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:00,760
Speaker 1: And it sounds crazy because the offensive line is so

1259
01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 1: bad for Miami that you think, oh, okay, the D

1260
01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:05,600
Speaker 1: line's gonna have a Well, they got a plan for that.

1261
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:07,960
Speaker 1: They know they know how to handle their you know,

1262
01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:09,920
Speaker 1: their pass rush and get it out quick because they've

1263
01:07:09,960 --> 01:07:11,720
Speaker 1: been through it so much. Now you've got to adjust

1264
01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:14,160
Speaker 1: to their adjustment, you know what I'm saying. So it's

1265
01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:17,160
Speaker 1: a little bit of the Princess Bride kind of thing.

1266
01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:19,320
Speaker 1: I knew that, you know, I knew you knew that

1267
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:22,160
Speaker 1: I knew that you knew, right, So have fun still

1268
01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:27,919
Speaker 1: them in the cast exactly. So, yeah, there's a little

1269
01:07:27,960 --> 01:07:29,680
Speaker 1: bit of gamesmanship going on in there with the coaching

1270
01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:31,959
Speaker 1: staff and the game plan. But you've gotta have a

1271
01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:35,480
Speaker 1: plan A, Plan B, Plan C, Plan D, E and F.

1272
01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:38,040
Speaker 1: You know, you've got to adjust to what you think

1273
01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:39,720
Speaker 1: they are going to try to do against you, and

1274
01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 1: if they're getting it done, you got to have an answer. Yeah,

1275
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:45,720
Speaker 1: no question about it. And you know, I think the

1276
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,840
Speaker 1: thing that I'm encouraged by is you can argue through

1277
01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:52,360
Speaker 1: the course of the first six games the Bills defense

1278
01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:55,880
Speaker 1: has won or help did the Bills win in different ways?

1279
01:07:56,400 --> 01:07:58,280
Speaker 1: They want it with a pass rush in Week two

1280
01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:03,080
Speaker 1: in the shutout of Miami and then in Week three

1281
01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:08,320
Speaker 1: against Washington, then really blitz much at all. One with coverage.

1282
01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:12,200
Speaker 1: You could argue they got two interceptions and turn and

1283
01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:15,080
Speaker 1: two fumbles, one in which they recover. They got it

1284
01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:18,559
Speaker 1: with three turnovers. Yeah, and Kansas City the same thing.

1285
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:22,240
Speaker 1: They didn't blitz one with coverage, plays on the ball, etc.

1286
01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:26,480
Speaker 1: And then pick six and physical defense, you know, in coverage,

1287
01:08:26,680 --> 01:08:29,200
Speaker 1: and you know they've won in different ways defensively. And

1288
01:08:29,360 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 1: it's interesting too that you say they won with the

1289
01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:33,519
Speaker 1: physical kind of defense, kind of man handling guys like

1290
01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:35,360
Speaker 1: trying to get their hands on Tyreek Hill, you know,

1291
01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:41,200
Speaker 1: and knock himsel beating Kelsey. And they took some penalties

1292
01:08:41,200 --> 01:08:43,600
Speaker 1: because of it, and I think you're coaching staffs and

1293
01:08:43,720 --> 01:08:46,360
Speaker 1: kudos to them for not We've been complaining about it.

1294
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 1: We've mentioned earlier in the show about how penalties are

1295
01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 1: one thing they could fix. You're gonna live with that

1296
01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:53,120
Speaker 1: if that's your game plan. You know, you know you're

1297
01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:54,640
Speaker 1: gonna get called on a once in a way. You

1298
01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:57,000
Speaker 1: gotta find that balance of how hard you can play

1299
01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:59,160
Speaker 1: and how physical you can play and what you're gonna

1300
01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:01,360
Speaker 1: get away with. So you kind of live with it

1301
01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:05,160
Speaker 1: in a game like Kansas City, But if that's not

1302
01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:08,080
Speaker 1: your game plan, you don't want to have to adjust

1303
01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:12,160
Speaker 1: on the fly. So yeah, I think they have one

1304
01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:13,800
Speaker 1: different ways, and I think it's a good point by

1305
01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:17,160
Speaker 1: you that this may be yet another way they find

1306
01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:20,080
Speaker 1: a different way to win a game. Playing against Miami

1307
01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:22,519
Speaker 1: for the second time, I you know, I just am

1308
01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:24,640
Speaker 1: very curious as to what the approach is going to

1309
01:09:24,720 --> 01:09:27,880
Speaker 1: be because you always want to attack what you perceive

1310
01:09:27,960 --> 01:09:31,880
Speaker 1: to be their weaknesses. And while the line is playing

1311
01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:35,639
Speaker 1: a little bit better for Miami, it is not demonstrably better.

1312
01:09:35,720 --> 01:09:38,599
Speaker 1: So do they go and test with the pass rush

1313
01:09:38,640 --> 01:09:40,920
Speaker 1: again to see if it's better, and then if it is,

1314
01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:44,679
Speaker 1: go into maybe what your contingency was. I'm just curious

1315
01:09:44,720 --> 01:09:47,000
Speaker 1: what's going to be priority number one at the outset

1316
01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:49,160
Speaker 1: of the game to kind of set the tone. That's

1317
01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:51,559
Speaker 1: my chief curiosity. All Right, we have to take a

1318
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:54,160
Speaker 1: break here because when we come back, we'll be talking

1319
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:56,960
Speaker 1: with Bill's running back Zach Moss. That's next here on

1320
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:59,000
Speaker 1: one Bill's Live presented by Kalid to Health. It's Buffalo

1321
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:15,800
Speaker 1: Bill's Radio. All right, welcome back to One Bill's Live.

1322
01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:19,679
Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you time to be joined

1323
01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:23,040
Speaker 1: by Bill's running back Zach Moss, who joins us thanks

1324
01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:25,880
Speaker 1: to Austin Air, the official clean air provider of the

1325
01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:29,679
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills, for this fresh off the Field interview. And

1326
01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:32,679
Speaker 1: if you're gonna be in and around Orchard Park this weekend,

1327
01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:34,439
Speaker 1: you're gonna want to make your way out to the

1328
01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:37,479
Speaker 1: Bill Store on Friday because Zach is going to be

1329
01:10:37,479 --> 01:10:41,360
Speaker 1: doing a pop up shop for his clothing brand, Zimo,

1330
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:45,599
Speaker 1: from five thirty to seven thirty PM. And we're here

1331
01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:47,760
Speaker 1: to talk about that clothing line right now, Zach, So

1332
01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:51,120
Speaker 1: why don't you first tell us how the idea kind

1333
01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:54,040
Speaker 1: of came together to do this and how would you

1334
01:10:54,080 --> 01:10:56,479
Speaker 1: describe this clothing line? Is this streetwear? Is that what

1335
01:10:56,600 --> 01:11:00,840
Speaker 1: we're kind of talking about here? Yeah? Um, I mean one,

1336
01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:03,240
Speaker 1: the clothing line kind of came up for one. I

1337
01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:06,400
Speaker 1: love clothes, um, but I don't love always paying for

1338
01:11:06,439 --> 01:11:09,920
Speaker 1: the prices of the stuff I really like. Um, So

1339
01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:12,160
Speaker 1: I thought it would be, you know, a good idea

1340
01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:14,960
Speaker 1: to kind of just make my own thing, um, you know,

1341
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:16,800
Speaker 1: and make my own brand, build my brand up and

1342
01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:18,880
Speaker 1: stuff like that. Um. And that's kind of how we

1343
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:22,040
Speaker 1: started it. But it's definitely streetwear. It's not one of

1344
01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:27,040
Speaker 1: your typical, um, you know, athlete brands where it's all

1345
01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:31,160
Speaker 1: emerged in football and stuff like that. Um. I first

1346
01:11:31,320 --> 01:11:35,120
Speaker 1: drop that we're doing on Friday tomorrow us as a

1347
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:37,840
Speaker 1: picture in the back of me playing football from from

1348
01:11:37,920 --> 01:11:40,800
Speaker 1: college days. And then after that, you know, we're transitioning

1349
01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:42,800
Speaker 1: it into a lot of just you know, a lot

1350
01:11:42,840 --> 01:11:45,479
Speaker 1: of designing kind of stuff. Uh, just make it really

1351
01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:48,000
Speaker 1: really cool, um and kind of separated from football. So

1352
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,680
Speaker 1: you're gonna be out of the bill Store here tomorrow

1353
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:53,400
Speaker 1: and just kind of hanging out watching, you know, helping

Speaker 1: anybody else besides yourself going to be there? Uh? Yeah,

1370
01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:43,559
Speaker 1: I mean I expect a lot of guys to be

1371
01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:47,000
Speaker 1: there because it's five thirty to seven thirty so usually

1372
01:12:47,040 --> 01:12:49,720
Speaker 1: on Friday to get out around like one thirty ish, um,

1373
01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:51,920
Speaker 1: so you know, guys got time to go home, come

1374
01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:54,479
Speaker 1: back and just hang out for a quick second and

1375
01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:57,160
Speaker 1: check stuff, check some of the stuff out. So, Zach,

1376
01:12:57,240 --> 01:13:00,599
Speaker 1: who did you kind of get connected with? I'm sure

1377
01:13:00,640 --> 01:13:02,639
Speaker 1: your agent probably helped you out with this to try

1378
01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:05,400
Speaker 1: to land, you know, a designer of some kind to

1379
01:13:05,600 --> 01:13:08,200
Speaker 1: kind of help you through this process, because while the

1380
01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:10,880
Speaker 1: idea is great when it sparks in your mind, you

1381
01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:12,760
Speaker 1: kind of need somebody that knows what they're doing to

1382
01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:16,519
Speaker 1: kind of help you carry it out and execute it right. Yeah,

1383
01:13:16,600 --> 01:13:19,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure you guys know Pat Matthews, ye

1384
01:13:20,160 --> 01:13:22,880
Speaker 1: who used to work here. Um, he's my marketing agent

1385
01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:26,639
Speaker 1: right here in Buffalo. Um, So with him and then

1386
01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:29,880
Speaker 1: myself and then some other guys outside of it. Um,

1387
01:13:30,120 --> 01:13:32,360
Speaker 1: you know, I pretty much come up with the designs

1388
01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:37,320
Speaker 1: like sometimes you I'm sitting there drawing stuff, brainstorming stuff.

1389
01:13:37,960 --> 01:13:40,360
Speaker 1: Like I said, I'm really into fashion and I know,

1390
01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:43,120
Speaker 1: you know, what kind of is high and what's you know,

1391
01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:45,120
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff and stuff like that. So

1392
01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:47,559
Speaker 1: usually it's just me, you know, just thinking of stuff,

1393
01:13:47,600 --> 01:13:50,160
Speaker 1: brainstorming it and then just sending enough to Pat and

1394
01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:52,000
Speaker 1: then he comes back with something for me. If I

1395
01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:54,280
Speaker 1: like it, then we go with it. If I don't,

1396
01:13:54,320 --> 01:13:56,040
Speaker 1: then you know, we move on from it. So it's

1397
01:13:56,080 --> 01:13:59,559
Speaker 1: really just been you know, me and him teaming up

1398
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:01,680
Speaker 1: and then um, you know his guy outside of that.

1399
01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:05,360
Speaker 1: So some of this is designed specifically by you. Some

1400
01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:10,559
Speaker 1: at least some aspects of this. Yeah. Yeah. The picture

1401
01:14:10,600 --> 01:14:13,559
Speaker 1: in the back, uh, I came up with. And then

1402
01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:17,240
Speaker 1: the simo was what guys started following me on the

1403
01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:20,559
Speaker 1: team last year late in the season my nickname, and

1404
01:14:20,560 --> 01:14:23,760
Speaker 1: then it just kind of started flowing into this year. Um,

1405
01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:26,200
Speaker 1: and then it just sounded perfectly to go with Zach

1406
01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:29,160
Speaker 1: Maas's official. Um so that's kind of what you know,

1407
01:14:29,320 --> 01:14:32,320
Speaker 1: Zimo means. Um, So it always kind of just you know,

1408
01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:35,160
Speaker 1: roll really good together. Yeah. I like it. I mean yeah,

1409
01:14:35,200 --> 01:14:38,479
Speaker 1: it's yeah, it's like it's got an action sound to it,

1410
01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:41,560
Speaker 1: you know, fast moving that kind of stuff. So yeah,

1411
01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:43,840
Speaker 1: hey man, somebody else comes up with a great idea,

1412
01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:46,240
Speaker 1: roll with it, especially if it involves your name. Why not, like,

1413
01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:49,479
Speaker 1: give us an idea. How's practice you did? You had

1414
01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:51,280
Speaker 1: the bye weeks coming to a close. You guys are

1415
01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:52,800
Speaker 1: back in the side. Let's kind of feel good to

1416
01:14:52,840 --> 01:14:54,599
Speaker 1: be back, a little invigorating to come back a little

1417
01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:56,920
Speaker 1: bit fresher, and then you got this team coming back.

1418
01:14:57,280 --> 01:14:59,320
Speaker 1: You thumped him thirty five nothing and you came in

1419
01:14:59,360 --> 01:15:02,120
Speaker 1: with two b using runs to finish these guys off

1420
01:15:02,280 --> 01:15:05,920
Speaker 1: last time he played. Um, how are things different now

1421
01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:08,879
Speaker 1: for your team? And what do you perceive the differences

1422
01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:12,680
Speaker 1: are for their team coming into this game. Um, you know,

1423
01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:15,640
Speaker 1: they're a really good team starting off. They've lost a

1424
01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:19,320
Speaker 1: few a lot of games as close, so they're a

1425
01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:21,880
Speaker 1: really really good team. Uh. You know, we understand that

1426
01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:24,360
Speaker 1: each and every week, no matter what the record is. Um.

1427
01:15:24,479 --> 01:15:26,240
Speaker 1: But for us, you know, coming off this bye week.

1428
01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:29,160
Speaker 1: It was just you know, putting whatever happening, you know,

1429
01:15:29,160 --> 01:15:32,000
Speaker 1: in that Tennessee game behind us, coming back mentally and

1430
01:15:32,120 --> 01:15:35,080
Speaker 1: physically ready just to go. And I feel like that's

1431
01:15:35,080 --> 01:15:37,080
Speaker 1: exactly where we are. We're not in that box that

1432
01:15:37,200 --> 01:15:41,120
Speaker 1: bye week hangover, um, you know, kind of blaming things

1433
01:15:41,120 --> 01:15:42,559
Speaker 1: on that. You know, we just had a really really

1434
01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:45,160
Speaker 1: good practice today and just trying to continue to do

1435
01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:48,360
Speaker 1: that all the way up. It's a Sunday and then Zach,

1436
01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:51,920
Speaker 1: I know Brian dab will probably embrace the grind even

1437
01:15:51,960 --> 01:15:54,519
Speaker 1: on the bye week to try to make you guys

1438
01:15:54,560 --> 01:15:56,800
Speaker 1: a little bit more efficient in the red zone. I

1439
01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:59,680
Speaker 1: know you're a red zone touchdown efficiency has kind of

1440
01:15:59,720 --> 01:16:02,200
Speaker 1: slip up to a little bit in recent weeks. That

1441
01:16:02,320 --> 01:16:04,640
Speaker 1: Week two game was your best red zone performance of

1442
01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:06,720
Speaker 1: the season. You guys were four for four down there,

1443
01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:09,000
Speaker 1: and you were you had a big hand in that.

1444
01:16:09,360 --> 01:16:12,320
Speaker 1: How do you guys get back to that? I mean,

1445
01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:14,640
Speaker 1: maybe you know, if it's not one hundred percent efficiency,

1446
01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:16,280
Speaker 1: maybe at least two thirds, you know what I mean,

1447
01:16:16,400 --> 01:16:19,080
Speaker 1: get up there around sixty six to seventy five percent.

1448
01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:20,400
Speaker 1: How do you guys get back to that? Is it

1449
01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:23,760
Speaker 1: about maybe running better? In the red zone more effectively

1450
01:16:23,760 --> 01:16:28,559
Speaker 1: down there. Yeah, it's definitely been a big emphasis this

1451
01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:32,760
Speaker 1: week than any other week. Obviously because of the last

1452
01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:34,960
Speaker 1: few games, we haven't really been able to you know,

1453
01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:36,960
Speaker 1: do what we've been doing early in the year with it.

1454
01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:40,839
Speaker 1: But I think it's just accumulation of just doing everything,

1455
01:16:41,320 --> 01:16:45,160
Speaker 1: all the small things being more detailed, and then just finishing.

1456
01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:48,000
Speaker 1: You know, we really need to just finish because that's

1457
01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:50,160
Speaker 1: what's gonna really help us in this backstretch of this year.

1458
01:16:50,200 --> 01:16:53,240
Speaker 1: Now it is finishing in the red zone because early

1459
01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:54,960
Speaker 1: part of the year we were living on a lot

1460
01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:57,519
Speaker 1: of big place. So now we just got to really,

1461
01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:00,360
Speaker 1: you know, really lock it in um and just be

1462
01:17:00,439 --> 01:17:02,280
Speaker 1: able to finish down there, no matter what. If it's

1463
01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:04,680
Speaker 1: a passage, it's a run, no matter what it is.

1464
01:17:04,800 --> 01:17:07,719
Speaker 1: Was need the fusion. Here's six games into your second

1465
01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:10,400
Speaker 1: year and you watch this team really plow through a

1466
01:17:10,479 --> 01:17:12,720
Speaker 1: tough schedule last year, go thirteen and three in the

1467
01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:15,320
Speaker 1: regular season. You got a real feel for what it's

1468
01:17:15,360 --> 01:17:19,800
Speaker 1: all about, not only overall, but specifically the offense of

1469
01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:22,439
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. How has it changed this year? What's

1470
01:17:22,439 --> 01:17:25,280
Speaker 1: the Is there a different feel to this offense? This year,

1471
01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:27,719
Speaker 1: you know, you got Emmanuel Sanders in there, your offensive

1472
01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:30,240
Speaker 1: lines a little bit different upfront, Josh is another year

1473
01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:33,800
Speaker 1: into his career. What's it feel like in a way

1474
01:17:33,840 --> 01:17:37,880
Speaker 1: that's different than it was last year. I think last

1475
01:17:37,960 --> 01:17:40,040
Speaker 1: year being a rookie for one, coming in and just

1476
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:43,040
Speaker 1: being super wide eyed, and then having a year that

1477
01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:46,320
Speaker 1: we had. Um, I mean, guys were just we just

1478
01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:48,920
Speaker 1: felt like underdogs every game we went into. You know,

1479
01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:50,880
Speaker 1: we just wanted to come out and just put the

1480
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:53,240
Speaker 1: league on notice. I think the difference is this year

1481
01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:55,200
Speaker 1: is we're not trying to prove it to anyone. We're

1482
01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:57,519
Speaker 1: trying to prove it to ourselves, you know, day in

1483
01:17:57,560 --> 01:17:59,000
Speaker 1: and day out, from the work that we put in.

1484
01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:02,360
Speaker 1: I think practices this year, in these first uh six

1485
01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:05,479
Speaker 1: seven weeks whatever it's been, has been, you know, way

1486
01:18:05,520 --> 01:18:08,120
Speaker 1: tougher than any practice was last year, especially earlier of

1487
01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:11,320
Speaker 1: the year. UM. So I think it's we know what

1488
01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:13,760
Speaker 1: our what our goal is, and we know it's that

1489
01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:17,120
Speaker 1: it's realistic, it's super realistic. So I think that's the

1490
01:18:17,160 --> 01:18:20,120
Speaker 1: biggest difference. It's just from one how we'd practicing and

1491
01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:22,679
Speaker 1: then how we're going out executing, jumping on guys early,

1492
01:18:23,520 --> 01:18:26,720
Speaker 1: just trying to really knock them out early. And you know,

1493
01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:28,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've realized this, but between the

1494
01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:30,720
Speaker 1: bye week and the two straight road games, you guys

1495
01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:32,880
Speaker 1: haven't played a home game and almost a month. Um,

1496
01:18:33,680 --> 01:18:35,400
Speaker 1: and now you know you'll be back at home. It's

1497
01:18:35,400 --> 01:18:37,479
Speaker 1: gonna be on Halloween. The fans will be even nutier

1498
01:18:37,479 --> 01:18:39,920
Speaker 1: because it'll be dressed up and god knows what. Um,

1499
01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:42,760
Speaker 1: how how forward are you guys looking? How much of

1500
01:18:42,760 --> 01:18:45,800
Speaker 1: you guys looking forward to finally getting back into the

1501
01:18:45,840 --> 01:18:50,759
Speaker 1: home confines here, especially with a division game. Yeah, it's

1502
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:54,160
Speaker 1: it's it's a big game being back home. Um. You know,

1503
01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:57,400
Speaker 1: everything that we want goes to our stadium and being

1504
01:18:57,479 --> 01:18:59,559
Speaker 1: a big division game and being able to come back

1505
01:18:59,560 --> 01:19:01,639
Speaker 1: home of our fans, it's gonna be a really big

1506
01:19:02,240 --> 01:19:04,240
Speaker 1: upper hand for us. So we're re excited to finally

1507
01:19:04,280 --> 01:19:06,599
Speaker 1: get back. Um, haven't heard the fans, like you said,

1508
01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:09,519
Speaker 1: almost a month and things like that. So it's definitely

1509
01:19:09,560 --> 01:19:13,240
Speaker 1: gonna be a fun, fun game on Sunday. And then

1510
01:19:13,439 --> 01:19:16,760
Speaker 1: last thing, we we've heard a little bit about the

1511
01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:20,599
Speaker 1: bye week Halloween party. We've seen some photos trickle out

1512
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:25,680
Speaker 1: on Instagram. Levi Wallace was an outstanding looking urkle Um.

1513
01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:28,679
Speaker 1: You know, I think Josh was Jack Sparrow if I

1514
01:19:28,680 --> 01:19:31,479
Speaker 1: if I if I identified his costume right? What was

1515
01:19:31,520 --> 01:19:34,240
Speaker 1: your choice, Zach? If you if you attended and had

1516
01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:38,120
Speaker 1: a costume. Yeah, I did attend. I was a Batman.

1517
01:19:38,320 --> 01:19:40,840
Speaker 1: I'm sure I'll probably post a picture here closed to

1518
01:19:41,120 --> 01:19:45,200
Speaker 1: us Sunday. Okay, so where did you? Where did you rank?

1519
01:19:45,240 --> 01:19:47,840
Speaker 1: Because I understand there was a contest there. I guess

1520
01:19:47,880 --> 01:19:50,439
Speaker 1: the hides won the contest. What was the winning costume

1521
01:19:50,520 --> 01:19:56,880
Speaker 1: combination there? I believe Mica was Beauty Juice. Oh. Um.

1522
01:19:56,960 --> 01:19:59,160
Speaker 1: If I'm a hundred percent correct, I believe he was

1523
01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:02,640
Speaker 1: Beauty Juice. Um. But I think I was definitely in

1524
01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:05,000
Speaker 1: the top ten. Okay, you know we stopped at one

1525
01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:07,439
Speaker 1: to three, so I'll just put myself in top ten somehow.

1526
01:20:08,520 --> 01:20:11,240
Speaker 1: Who's counting, right? Why not? Zack? Thanks man, Good luck

Speaker 1: having me on man, all right, yeah, good luck with it,

1534
01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:34,200
Speaker 1: all right. That's Zack Moss with his new Zimo clothing brand.

1535
01:20:34,800 --> 01:20:37,320
Speaker 1: Just takes a nickname that his teammates are called. Said,

1536
01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:39,920
Speaker 1: you know, that'll look good on a sweatshirt. Nice logo,

1537
01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:41,639
Speaker 1: two doing it. It's good logo. I'll have to get

1538
01:20:41,680 --> 01:20:44,400
Speaker 1: my daughter in touch with him in a fashion student,

1539
01:20:44,479 --> 01:20:46,760
Speaker 1: so she'll help him out. Man, I'm always looking for

1540
01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:49,160
Speaker 1: another hoodie. I'm waring a couple of them this week.

1541
01:20:50,360 --> 01:20:52,559
Speaker 1: Yeah right, you know it looks cool though. I like

1542
01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:55,759
Speaker 1: the logo. Um, you know, it's kind of you always

1543
01:20:55,760 --> 01:20:57,639
Speaker 1: want to when you got a streetwear brand, you always

1544
01:20:57,640 --> 01:20:59,200
Speaker 1: want to put like a little action in the logo

1545
01:20:59,240 --> 01:21:01,280
Speaker 1: and the Z with the mo next to it. I

1546
01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:04,360
Speaker 1: like it. It looks good. It's pretty sharp, and I

1547
01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:07,320
Speaker 1: like the fact that he didn't just gravitate right back

1548
01:21:07,320 --> 01:21:09,000
Speaker 1: to what he does for a living, which is football.

1549
01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:12,679
Speaker 1: Like there's no football connection to the clothing line per se.

1550
01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:15,719
Speaker 1: It's for everybody. And I think that was smart too.

1551
01:21:15,760 --> 01:21:18,920
Speaker 1: So you know, good luck to him. And in case

1552
01:21:18,920 --> 01:21:20,680
Speaker 1: you're just joining us now, he will be at the

1553
01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:24,479
Speaker 1: Bills Store tomorrow five thirty to seven thirty. So go

1554
01:21:24,520 --> 01:21:27,200
Speaker 1: in check out his new clothing line, maybe pick up something.

1555
01:21:27,880 --> 01:21:30,559
Speaker 1: It's comfort ware. It's you know, the kids call it streetwear. Now.

1556
01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:33,280
Speaker 1: I try to stay up on the trends here, Steve,

1557
01:21:34,600 --> 01:21:36,600
Speaker 1: but it's like, you know, it's comfort ware, which you

1558
01:21:36,640 --> 01:21:38,839
Speaker 1: know you want this time of year, the weather turns,

1559
01:21:39,439 --> 01:21:41,320
Speaker 1: you want to kind of get a warm sweatshirt on

1560
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:44,200
Speaker 1: or some street where you can do that. And I'm

1561
01:21:44,240 --> 01:21:46,439
Speaker 1: sure you know, Zach, he's great dude, Like you know,

1562
01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:48,280
Speaker 1: you go in get something. I'm sure we'll be happy

1563
01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:50,040
Speaker 1: to talk to you for a couple of minutes. Just

1564
01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:52,439
Speaker 1: you know you want to talk to him. You know.

1565
01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:56,360
Speaker 1: Good luck at this weekend, right, he's good about that man,

1566
01:21:56,439 --> 01:21:59,200
Speaker 1: So good luck to him with that and stuff. Good

1567
01:21:59,240 --> 01:22:01,720
Speaker 1: luck to them on Sunday. As you said, we will

1568
01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:04,759
Speaker 1: take a break here. But when we come back, Steve

1569
01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:07,200
Speaker 1: and I will close things up. We may even have

1570
01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:10,640
Speaker 1: a little time for some NFL true false. Something we

1571
01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:12,840
Speaker 1: haven't done in a little bit. Next on One Bill's

1572
01:22:12,840 --> 01:22:29,400
Speaker 1: Live presented by Klata Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right,

1573
01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:32,240
Speaker 1: welcome back to One Bills Live. We're gonna do some

1574
01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:34,680
Speaker 1: NFL true falls, but that was trumped because we got

1575
01:22:34,680 --> 01:22:38,000
Speaker 1: a better thing for you instead. Yeah, wide receiver Emmanuel

1576
01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:41,280
Speaker 1: Sanders addressing the media after practice today. So let's go

1577
01:22:41,720 --> 01:22:46,960
Speaker 1: right to Emmanuel. Now I am a secondary and give

1578
01:22:47,080 --> 01:22:55,040
Speaker 1: up a lot of chop play down Bill Low. There

1579
01:22:55,040 --> 01:22:57,559
Speaker 1: are two high spake corners in aligue. I think, Um,

1580
01:22:58,560 --> 01:23:00,639
Speaker 1: I mean, they played us pretty good the last game,

1581
01:23:00,920 --> 01:23:03,599
Speaker 1: uh minus a score. You know they played us. They

1582
01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:05,800
Speaker 1: played as well when you go back and watch the film.

1583
01:23:05,840 --> 01:23:07,559
Speaker 1: We had a couple of opportunities and make a couple

1584
01:23:07,560 --> 01:23:10,720
Speaker 1: of big plays, even more big plays uh that you

1585
01:23:10,720 --> 01:23:13,680
Speaker 1: know we missed on or you know, missus Simon here

1586
01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:17,000
Speaker 1: or there. And so I think they got they got

1587
01:23:17,080 --> 01:23:19,519
Speaker 1: uh some good corners. I like the fact that they

1588
01:23:19,520 --> 01:23:21,559
Speaker 1: get up in your face and they and they press,

1589
01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:23,519
Speaker 1: and that's what they do and that's what they stick to.

1590
01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:25,840
Speaker 1: So uh, we definitely got to match up. You know,

1591
01:23:25,880 --> 01:23:27,920
Speaker 1: I was watching film early this warning on them, and

1592
01:23:27,960 --> 01:23:29,519
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, let me get my let

1593
01:23:29,560 --> 01:23:31,599
Speaker 1: me get my body right in the battle. Because you know,

1594
01:23:31,640 --> 01:23:35,639
Speaker 1: every time somebody's in your face for four quarters of football, uh,

1595
01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:38,200
Speaker 1: that's when you know fatigue can happen. That's when you

1596
01:23:38,240 --> 01:23:40,920
Speaker 1: know you can get mentally drained. So I always start

1597
01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:43,160
Speaker 1: the process of kind of locking in like during that

1598
01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:45,240
Speaker 1: week or like what I'm gonna have to do in

1599
01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:52,000
Speaker 1: order to you know, win my matchup. A lot of

1600
01:23:52,320 --> 01:24:08,519
Speaker 1: you brought up, Yeah, it's simple when you think about

1601
01:24:08,640 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 1: just score, right, but how do you score? And I

1602
01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:14,720
Speaker 1: think that we're trying to figure that out. You know,

1603
01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:17,680
Speaker 1: it's easy to talk about you know, red zone efficiency

1604
01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:19,840
Speaker 1: and this and that. But you know, I feel like

1605
01:24:19,840 --> 01:24:22,040
Speaker 1: we're scoring points. You know, we want the highest scoring

1606
01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:24,240
Speaker 1: teams in the league, and I just think, you know,

1607
01:24:24,560 --> 01:24:26,559
Speaker 1: based off the Tennessee game, we didn't make the proper

1608
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:29,479
Speaker 1: plays to win the ball game. So there's no there's

1609
01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:31,760
Speaker 1: no reason to go in the panic mode. I mean,

1610
01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:33,599
Speaker 1: I think that we're scoring points, and we're playing good

1611
01:24:33,600 --> 01:24:37,200
Speaker 1: complimentary defense and were a good complimentarity team ball. But

1612
01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:40,160
Speaker 1: we just gotta make the necessary plays to win games

1613
01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:41,880
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. And so you know,

1614
01:24:41,880 --> 01:24:43,920
Speaker 1: when you look at look back on the Tennessee game,

1615
01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:46,120
Speaker 1: obviously there are plays that you know, we didn't make

1616
01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:48,920
Speaker 1: and and and they made and so they won the game.

1617
01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:51,840
Speaker 1: But you know, I'm not really thinking too much into

1618
01:24:51,920 --> 01:24:54,160
Speaker 1: the red zone. Obviously you have to to score points.

1619
01:24:54,240 --> 01:24:57,240
Speaker 1: But I think that, you know, from a scoring perspective,

1620
01:24:57,280 --> 01:24:59,599
Speaker 1: I think that we're doing well in terms of what

1621
01:24:59,640 --> 01:25:03,040
Speaker 1: we do probat the red zone. Like you know, you

1622
01:25:03,080 --> 01:25:10,800
Speaker 1: can't run a third and tannle play, yeah, because run

1623
01:25:10,880 --> 01:25:14,320
Speaker 1: off the problems people is the red zone play is

1624
01:25:14,439 --> 01:25:20,080
Speaker 1: generally involved and change. You know, you run out and

1625
01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:23,080
Speaker 1: sometimes red zone plays is just a breakdown other play

1626
01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:26,640
Speaker 1: and scramble drill and making something happen because you know,

1627
01:25:26,720 --> 01:25:28,519
Speaker 1: it's it's when you're in the red zone, it's more

1628
01:25:28,560 --> 01:25:30,760
Speaker 1: of a time and type thing, right, Like you you've

1629
01:25:30,800 --> 01:25:32,599
Speaker 1: got to be on the money because it's such tight

1630
01:25:32,680 --> 01:25:35,880
Speaker 1: windows and so um. You know, at the end of

1631
01:25:35,920 --> 01:25:38,240
Speaker 1: the day, I see that, you know, everybody's question the

1632
01:25:38,240 --> 01:25:41,000
Speaker 1: red zone. But you know, like I said, we score points.

1633
01:25:41,160 --> 01:25:44,040
Speaker 1: You know, and obviously, based on the Tennessee game, when

1634
01:25:44,040 --> 01:25:47,439
Speaker 1: you lose, you know, some some people going to panic mode.

1635
01:25:47,439 --> 01:25:49,720
Speaker 1: But you know, like I said, we score points, and

1636
01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:52,639
Speaker 1: so we just gotta keep keep doing what we're doing.

1637
01:25:52,720 --> 01:25:54,400
Speaker 1: And like I said, when we get into games, we

1638
01:25:54,439 --> 01:25:57,200
Speaker 1: just got to make the necessary plays to win the game.

1639
01:25:57,400 --> 01:25:59,120
Speaker 1: And you know, if we would have did that in

1640
01:25:59,120 --> 01:26:01,040
Speaker 1: the Tennessee. Nobody would have been sitting here, you know,

1641
01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:03,479
Speaker 1: talking about you know, a red zone, you know, if

1642
01:26:03,520 --> 01:26:05,880
Speaker 1: you're talking about something else. But that's just you know,

1643
01:26:05,960 --> 01:26:08,280
Speaker 1: that's the National Football League and you gotta you gotta

1644
01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:10,400
Speaker 1: go with whatever it is. But at the end of

1645
01:26:10,439 --> 01:26:13,160
Speaker 1: the day, like I shaid, we score points and I

1646
01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:17,240
Speaker 1: still say we're a great football team. We just we

1647
01:26:17,360 --> 01:26:22,479
Speaker 1: just didn't make the necessary plays that Tennessee game teams.

1648
01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:29,479
Speaker 1: Have you ever been in a situation where the team,

1649
01:26:31,520 --> 01:26:33,840
Speaker 1: I mean, this is this is the National Football League.

1650
01:26:33,960 --> 01:26:36,960
Speaker 1: Like any given senday, any team can win. You can't

1651
01:26:36,960 --> 01:26:39,320
Speaker 1: take nobody likely, Like we're playing against the best players

1652
01:26:39,320 --> 01:26:42,240
Speaker 1: in the world and nobody's gonna roll over. We're all competitors.

1653
01:26:42,280 --> 01:26:45,120
Speaker 1: We've been competing. I've been competing ever since I was

1654
01:26:45,120 --> 01:26:47,600
Speaker 1: six years old. I played soccer for the first time, right, Like,

1655
01:26:47,640 --> 01:26:50,000
Speaker 1: I'm a competitor. Any time that I line up, I'm

1656
01:26:50,040 --> 01:26:52,000
Speaker 1: trying to win. I'm trying to dominate. And that's what

1657
01:26:52,040 --> 01:26:55,080
Speaker 1: they're trying to do too. So um, you know, and

1658
01:26:55,160 --> 01:26:58,080
Speaker 1: coach McDermott, he's been keeping that perspective with us as well,

1659
01:26:58,160 --> 01:27:02,040
Speaker 1: like this is this is opportunity for us to go

1660
01:27:02,080 --> 01:27:05,120
Speaker 1: out and get another win and try to make a

1661
01:27:05,160 --> 01:27:08,760
Speaker 1: statement and keep rolling and hopefully going or run, you know,

1662
01:27:08,800 --> 01:27:10,640
Speaker 1: without wins. But you know, at the end of the day,

1663
01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:13,160
Speaker 1: this is this is You can say whatever you want,

1664
01:27:13,200 --> 01:27:16,080
Speaker 1: but there's still an NFL team that's coming in to

1665
01:27:16,160 --> 01:27:18,240
Speaker 1: our stadium and you know, trying to get a win.

1666
01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:19,920
Speaker 1: So we got to go out and we gotta make

1667
01:27:19,960 --> 01:27:22,879
Speaker 1: the plays to win a game. All right. That's Emmanuel

1668
01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:27,280
Speaker 1: Sanders addressing the media here this afternoon after practice. And

1669
01:27:28,240 --> 01:27:30,760
Speaker 1: whether it's us talking to Zach Moss, the media talking

1670
01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:34,840
Speaker 1: to Emmanuel Sanders or coach McDermott addressing the media yesterday,

1671
01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:39,599
Speaker 1: suffice to say they are not taking this upcoming game

1672
01:27:40,080 --> 01:27:42,439
Speaker 1: lightly in any way, shape or form. And I think

1673
01:27:42,479 --> 01:27:44,559
Speaker 1: when it's a division game, it helps you lock in

1674
01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:48,280
Speaker 1: even easier, doesn't it. Like, Yeah, you're a professional, you

1675
01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:51,040
Speaker 1: lock in for every game, whether the Dolphins are one

1676
01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:54,320
Speaker 1: in six or fourteen, and ozo it's a division game,

1677
01:27:54,520 --> 01:27:58,400
Speaker 1: you lock in automatically because of what the game means. Absolutely,

1678
01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:01,639
Speaker 1: And this this game's interesting because you know, Dolphins coming

1679
01:28:01,640 --> 01:28:03,680
Speaker 1: in hobbled, They're coming in on a six game or

1680
01:28:03,840 --> 01:28:09,000
Speaker 1: six game losing streak um and today their practice squad.

1681
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:11,479
Speaker 1: They just signed a Hamburg native, Jake Dola Gala, who

1682
01:28:11,560 --> 01:28:14,519
Speaker 1: was a quarterback six seven quarterbacks, been bouncing around the league.

1683
01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:17,800
Speaker 1: He was actually in Buffalo four I think, or was

1684
01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:20,559
Speaker 1: it Cincinnati for the preseason game. He was supposed to

1685
01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:23,880
Speaker 1: be right, he got Green Bay preseason game. They cut

1686
01:28:23,960 --> 01:28:26,800
Speaker 1: him the day before, right, and he bought like three

1687
01:28:26,960 --> 01:28:29,640
Speaker 1: something that right man, he was sitting with him, I guess, right,

1688
01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:33,160
Speaker 1: So maybe so. Jake Dela Gala still bounced around a

1689
01:28:33,280 --> 01:28:36,600
Speaker 1: chant and with the Dolphins, and it's a kid that

1690
01:28:36,640 --> 01:28:38,600
Speaker 1: can sling it. Um still looking for a him, but

1691
01:28:38,600 --> 01:28:40,439
