1
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: This This one Bill's Live presented by Callida Health.

2
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 2: How's everybody doing on game Day? Chris Brown Steve Tasker

3
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 2: with you. We are your extended pregame show in advance

4
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 2: of Thursday Night football with the Bills hosting the Dolphins

5
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 2: two and oh Bill's zero and two Dolphins. We've seen

6
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 2: the spread vacillite between eleven and a half and twelve

7
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 2: and a half points. I always get a little leery

8
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 2: of big point spreads with division teams on short weeks

9
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 2: because the teams know each other pretty well.

10
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: A short week, they don't know they play each other

11
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: and the core guys know and then you kind of

12
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: get an identity. The team has an identity, but first

13
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: game of the season. I don't know if you don't

14
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: know them that well or not. But yeah, and I

15
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: always say they're not handicapping the actual game. They handicap

16
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: what they think people would bet on.

17
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 2: The game, or where the money's going.

18
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: Where the money is going to be on the game,

19
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: that's where they bet, that's where they put the line.

20
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: So it's yeah, and you know this the the what

21
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: they call the sharp money comes in very late.

22
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I will say tailgaters are out in force early,

23
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: and when you have weather like we've had for the

24
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 2: last two weeks, let's go. You understand why. I think

25
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 2: a lot of people made the conscious decision, knowing what

26
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 2: the weather was going to be, to make this a

27
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 2: two meal tailgate. This is a lunch and dinner tailgate.

28
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 2: The games.

29
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 1: I remember, it's gonna be eighty today. During the drought,

30
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: he never got You didn't get very many night games,

31
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,679
Speaker 1: right and you rarely got him in the stadium. It

32
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 1: was on the road. Right now, they were like, they

33
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: get they got a routine. Now we get this night game.

34
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: We got to do this, this, this, and this we

35
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: got They've got we get it all the time. They

36
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: only have six one pm games this whole season.

37
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 2: I know next week is one of them. And from

38
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 2: what I have been told because I was on the

39
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 2: Morning show with Jeremy and Joe here in Buffalo and

40
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 2: they were saying that the Saints game, the Saints is

41
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 2: a hot ticket because it's one of the only one

42
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 2: pm games right in the first half of the season

43
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 2: at home, and people love coming to one o'clock games

44
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: at home here in Buffalo in the fall, and it's

45
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 2: one of their only opportunities to do.

46
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: So, yes, I didn't realize that because I had That's why.

47
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 2: It's a hot ticket. At a time in the time

48
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 2: of year.

49
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: I had a buddy ask you know, he says, hey,

50
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: I'm coming in. I got a hook up. So yeah,

51
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: all right, So I didn't realize that.

52
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 2: Neither neither did I. I guess I hadn't really thought

53
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 2: of it that way.

54
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: But this final you understand, no, yeah, of course. And

55
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 1: this final season, though, every ticket has really been in

56
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 1: high demand. I mean every game because it's you know,

57
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,959
Speaker 1: a lot of people you know who aren't local, or

58
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: someone who are, they only go to a couple of

59
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: games or one game, and for a lot of people

60
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: coming in, this is their last game in the stadium,

61
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: the last time. So yeah, it's a little raised level

62
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: of urgency for a lot of people coming in for

63
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: these games.

64
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 2: This week's game against the Dolphins is presented by Saint

65
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 2: Bonaventure University Visits SBU dot edu slash visit to schedule

66
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 2: a tour of Saint Bonaventure and find out why en

67

Speaker 2: rollman has had an all time high and why becoming

68
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 2: a Bondie be the best decision you'll ever make. Saint

69
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 2: Bonaventure University the Intersection of Heart and Mind. Don't really

70
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 2: have practice updates per se, but this is kind of

71
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 2: the update on player availability, so we'll just say they're

72
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 2: presented by Lee Coom. Anyway, you're Lake Erie College of

73
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 2: Osteopathic Medicine, and three players for the Bills are questionable

74
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 2: for tonight's game. Tarren Johnson, Cam Lewis, Shaq Thompson. We

75
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 2: already know that Ed Oliver and Matt Mulano are out,

76
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 2: so that's kind of where that sits. And then with

77
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 2: respect to the three questionable guys, you got two guys

78
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 2: that play nickel corner. Tarren is obviously the starter. He

79
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 2: missed last week's game, Cam filled in with in for him,

80
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 2: and then he comes down with a shoulder injury late

81
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 2: in that game on a tackle on Tyrod Taylor, who

82
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 2: had come in in relief of Justin Fields. So now

83
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 2: he's danged up. So here's the thing to really keep

84
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 2: an eye on. If only one of those guys is

85
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 2: active for tonight's game, we should expect to see the

86
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 2: NFL debut of Jordan Hancock, the rookie fifth round pick

87
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 2: out of Ohio State. He would serve as the backup

88
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 2: Nickel and a backup safety also and presumably play a

89
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 2: good deal on special teams if they are both up.

90
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 2: If Cam and Tarron are both able to suit up,

91
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 2: then maybe Hancock is a healthy and active again. But

92
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: we'll have to wait and see. He was also dealing

93
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,039
Speaker 2: with the shoulder injury but kind of got moved off

94
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 2: the injury report yesterday, you know, at the end of

95
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 2: this practice week, so he's good to go. We'll just

96
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 2: have to see how the numbers shake out with respect

97
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 2: to the two Nickel guys and Cam Lewis and Tarren Johnson.

98
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,799
Speaker 1: I don't like to do this, but in a perfect world,

99
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 1: this game goes as as expected and Hancock is active

100
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: and he also gets on the field for like the

101
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: last two members of the game.

102
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, gets some res kind of like what we saw

103
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 2: last week, right so with some.

104
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 3: Of the battle.

105
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: But that's you know, that's asking for a lot. I mean,

106
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: this is you know, it's a you know, I don't

107
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: how this game.

108
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 4: Is going to go.

109
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 1: We'll see.

110
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 2: We'll also have to see who the Bills elevate from

111
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 2: the practice squad. We're presuming that will happen, knowing when

112
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 2: they were down at Oliver last week. They elevated Zion

113
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: Log to play in the game last week against the Jets.

114
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 2: Whether it's Logue this week or someone else, you know,

115
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 2: it could be Jordan Phillips, could be Fedarian Mathis, because

116
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 2: you remember, you only have three practice squad elevations per player.

117
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 2: When you elevate them the fourth time, you have to

118
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 2: sign them to your roster. So that that's why you

119
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 2: want to try to manage the number of elevations per player.

120
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 2: So I wonder if they could do a rotation, and

121
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 2: if Jordan Phillips is the guy that gets called up

122
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,119
Speaker 2: this week, or if it's Federian Mathis who just signed

123
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 2: with the team a couple of weeks ago at defensive tackle.

124
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,919
Speaker 2: Probably not. I would say it's Phillips or Log that

125
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 2: gets elevated tonight.

126
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 1: And it has also to do not with that guy

127
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: in particular how many times he's been elevated, but what

128
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: everybody else around him has been doing. If the young

129
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: guys are kind of coming on and coming on, maybe

130
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: Jordan Phillips takes it. You know, it's another week for

131
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: him to wait. Yeah, because there's always that I like Zion,

132
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: so you yes, he showed up. So it's this six

133
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: week window we've got with suspensions to Hoyt and Ogunjobi

134
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: as well, is on the horizon. So you've got that

135
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: to consider as well, because then you'll have even more

136
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: slack as to how many times you can get these

137
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: guys up and how many times you're gonna actually need

138
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: and need them to come up. These first six weeks,

139
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: you kind of got to feel like, man, let's activate

140
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: the guy. You know, he's only got a few more

141
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: weeks to do this. This is week three, we have

142
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: three more after this, So all that is in the

143
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: in the you know, stew of how many activations, and

144
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: you talk I talked to Brandon. You talk to Brandon

145
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: being once in a while we do it, and you

146
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: start asking him about these roster elevations and he's he

147
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: starts speaking greed. I mean, the guy is like way

148
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: out in front of the rest of us.

149
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 2: Well, because it's a puzzle, yeah, and you only have

150
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 2: a finite number of moves right that you can make.

151
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 2: So he starts talking about strategic.

152
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: He started talking about well then we've got the he

153
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: starts talking about special teams and the and the different

154
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: position groups, and I'm like what And so it's they're

155
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: on top of it, and it is a part of

156
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: the rep the UH process.

157
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 2: And don't forget too every time you elevate a player

158
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 2: from the practice squad, they get paid a regular fifty

159
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 2: three man roster game check and that counts towards your cap.

160
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 2: On top of it. That's that is the So it's

161
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 2: a lot of management, a lot of moving post.

162
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 1: That's the subtlety. That's an enormous difference, because if they

163
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: elevated guy like Jordan Phillips, who is a veteran minimum

164
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: even so, it's not as good as elevating right zion load.

165
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 2: We're also anticipating that the Bills will elevate a linebacker,

166
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 2: knowing they did it last week when Shaq Thompson was down.

167
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 2: They elevated Keante Jenkins, the undrafted rookie out of Virginia

168
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 2: Tech played on special teams last week. They know they're

169
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 2: down Milano this week, possibly Shaq Thompson as well, so

170
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 2: I would assume a linebacker is gonna get elevated for

171
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 2: tonight's game as well. So we're anticipating defensive tackle and

172
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 2: linebacker practice squad elevations. I believe those have to be

173
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 2: announced within four hours of game time, so that would

174
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 2: be four fifteen, four thirty somewhere in there where they'll

175
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 2: have to ann squad.

176
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: I mean, if the practice squad does, it's you know

177
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: they got remember they got Jimmy Charlow still on the

178
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: practice squad. Count A Jenkins is the guy from last week.

179
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: So you know there's some guys down there that they

180
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 1: feel really good about. And I think Bills fans would

181
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: love to see count A Jenkins or Jimmy Charli come

182
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,959
Speaker 1: up and play them, get some tackles on special teams

183
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 1: or whatever.

184
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 2: One elevation we're anticipating for sure for the Dolphins is

185
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 2: their kicker, Riley Patterson, who is on their practice squad

186
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,679
Speaker 2: because Jason Sanders, their regular kicker, is on injured reserve.

187
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 2: Patterson got called up last week to kick and the

188
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 2: week before, presuming he'll get called up again this week,

189
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: and then after that they may have to add him

190
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 2: to the active roster because they will have exhausted all

191
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 2: three elevations. So we're expecting Riley Patterson to be elevated

192
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 2: for the Dolphins so he can kick tonight. Beyond that,

193
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 2: whether they have one other position player will have to

194
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 2: wait and see let's go around the NFL to give

195
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 2: you a hint on Dolphin's player availability Tonight. Around the

196
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 2: NFL presented by Kalida Healthy, Official Healthcare System of the

197
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills and Miami wide receiver Jalen Wattle, who popped

198
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 2: up on the injury report Tuesday with a shoulder injury

199
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 2: and is listed as questionable for tonight, will reportedly test

200
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 2: his shoulder pregame. There is optimism that he will play,

201
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 2: so we'll have to keep an eye on that in

202
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 2: the run up to kick off and then see if

203
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 2: he is on the inactive list or if he is

204
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 2: suiting up and playing tonight. Chob Robinson is another player

205
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 2: that is questionable with a knee ailment, So another player

206
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 2: to keep an eye on for the Dolphins after a

207
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 2: six sax season as a rookie last Year's.

208
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: Easy forget all these other teams actually have injuries too.

209
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 1: It seems like it's just us.

210
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 2: No, it's league wide, And I'll fill you in next

211
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 2: with another bit of news to see how bad it

212
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 2: is around the league. Bad injury news for Tampa Bay's

213
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 2: offensive line again. Starting guard Cody Mak's knee injury is

214
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 2: apparently significant enough that it will require surgery and it

215
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,439
Speaker 2: is expected to end his season, So that is another

216
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 2: major loss for the Bucks offensive line. They are now

217
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 2: down three starting offensive linemen here in the short term.

218
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 2: Left tackle Tristan Wurtz has been rehabbing all off season,

219
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 2: still working his way back to the lineup, could be

220
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 2: back as soon as next week, but more likely October.

221
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,079
Speaker 2: And then right tackle Luke Getticky gutted his way back

222
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 2: onto the field last week against Houston and injured himself again.

223
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 2: He is also out right now, So the Bucks are

224
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,199
Speaker 2: plugging hole. And the reports are that the Bucks are

225
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 2: down so many linemen healthy health wise that they're going

226
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 2: to sign Bills practice squad guard Dan Feenie to their

227
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 2: active rosters. So it looks like the Bills are going

228
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 2: to lose a practice squad offensive lineman in Dan Feenie

229
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 2: to Tampa's active roster. Bucks are also without rookie wide

230
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 2: receiver a Mecca Abuka, who was not seen on the

231
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 2: practice field for a second straight day today after missing

232
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 2: Wednesday session with hip and groin injuries. So the Bucks

233
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 2: are in it right now, neck deep in injuries. Yeah,

234
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 2: and not just like backups, We're talking starters here.

235
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, that and significant time is being lost. One of

236
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 1: them is gone season. Yeah. So it's it's not just

237
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: the Bills that are that are feeling it, and but

238
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: the Bills because of the ripple effects, they're losing Feenie.

239
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. So a veteran backup on your practice squad, you're

240
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 2: gonna have to fill that spot at some point in time.

241
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 2: Chargers are signing veteran safety Tony Jefferson to their fifty

242
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 2: three man roster. He had been on their practice squad.

243
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 2: He got the start Monday night is a practice squad elevation,

244
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 2: and all he did was put up five tackles, two

245
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 2: pass breakups in an I int and they're like, oh,

246
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 2: maybe we should have him on the field every week.

247
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 2: So he got signed to their active roster, which presumably

248
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 2: he will remain there for the rest of the season.

249
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 2: Commander's return to Washington is finally official. DC Council voted

250
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 2: in favor of the measure. It was an expected outcome

251
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 2: given its vote more than a month ago. The Council

252
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 2: voted eleven to two to approve the RFK Stadium project,

253
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 2: allowing the team to return to the site it called

254
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 2: home for more than three decades. The Commanders have been

255
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 2: playing in Landover, Maryland for almost thirty years, so it

256
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 2: looks like they will return to the Capitol District to

257
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,559
Speaker 2: where they used to play. They're probably going to have

258
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 2: to raise the remnants of the existing stadium rebuild it.

259
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 2: The team has targeted twenty thirty for the year the

260
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 2: stadium will open in large part to also host big

261
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 2: events such as the Women's World Cup, which is coming

262
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 2: in twenty thirty one to the USA. So that's what's

263
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 2: going on inside the Beltway. And then, after missing Sunday's

264
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 2: win over the Saints because of a toe injury, looks

265
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 2: like forty nine Ers quarterback brock Perty could return this

266
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 2: week for the Niners game against the Arizona Cardinals. He

267
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 2: practiced on a limited basis Wednesday, and head coach Kyle

268
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 2: Shanahan basically said he does have a chance to get

269
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 2: back in the lineup this week. Mac Jones played in

270
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 2: his place last week in a narrow victory. So that

271
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 2: is the news around the NFL. Presented by Kalida Health.

272
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 2: Topic of discussion for you today is pretty simple. It

273
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 2: concerns tonight's game. As we are asking you, how do

274
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 2: you see tonight's game playing out. Based on the poll

275
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 2: we had on yesterday's show, I don't think people are

276
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 2: terribly concerned about tonight's game. We all recognize the problems

277
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 2: that the Dolphins are experiencing, both on offense, where running

278
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 2: the ball has been a problem, and on defense we're

279
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 2: stopping anyone has been a problem at all, anyone at all.

280
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, they went a long way before they They actually

281
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: did get a stop against the Colts defensively, and then

282
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: the Colts punted it. The Dolphins roughed him first down,

283
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: they didn't get a stop.

284
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, so they extended.

285
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: Special teams got a penalty that extended it. So they

286
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: went six quarters before they got a stop that was

287
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: counted as a stop, and that was a kneel down,

288
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: so that wasn't a stop either. They struggled.

289
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been thirteen of fifteen possessions that did not

290
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 2: finish in a kneel down that they have given up points.

291
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, they forced to. They haven't given a touchdown every

292
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: time they forced teams to kick a field goal, but

293
00:15:58,840 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: you know.

294
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 2: And in the red zone rock giving up points every

295
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 2: time too.

296
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: It'll it will. I will be really interested to see

297
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: what this Bill's offense comes out doing right out of

298
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 1: the shoot. Are they just gonna hand it and see

299
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: and test the Dolphins?

300
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 4: Oh?

301
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 2: You know what I think they're gonna do.

302
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 1: Or are they gonna come out back Josh up and

303
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: say let's sling it because their defensive backfield is and

304
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 1: has been an atrocity.

305
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 2: I think they're gonna try to pound them into submission first.

306
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: I think they do too.

307
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 2: I think they're just gonna line up their big people,

308
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 2: whether it's Alec Anderson or three tight ends, and say

309
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 2: we're coming show us you can stop it.

310
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: I think you do that because you got the MVP

311
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: at quarterback and dropping him back is always a chance

312
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: because Jalen Phillips can still rush the passer, chop Robinson Chubb.

313
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: They got some guys and why drop Josh back and

314
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: looking down the barrel of those three guys, even if

315
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: your offensive line is really good, Yeah, hand it off

316
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: and hit those guys instead of letting those guys attack

317
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: the quarterback in the pocket. It's the it's finger quotes.

318
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: It's the easiest way to do it. Just have Josh

319
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: turn around, hand it, put a couple of tight ends.

320
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,680
Speaker 1: See what Jackson Hawes can do in there's a three

321
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 1: tight end put, I mean, just go heavy. I don't

322
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 1: know if they'll do that. They'll probably line up in

323
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 1: their normal offensive set and still hand it off. But

324
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 1: I think it's really interesting to see what they're gonna

325
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,679
Speaker 1: do because films, what they see on film will dictate it.

326
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 1: It's not gonna be how us out here saying, ah

327
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 1: that dolphins are soft. You know, it's what they're gonna

328
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: see on film. So tactically, personnel wise, where the matchups are,

329
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: where can we get these guys best, and they'll go

330
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: from there. It's not gonna be just as easy as

331
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,120
Speaker 1: Brown and I sometimes make it look.

332
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 2: So the Bill's most popular personnel grouping so far through

333
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 2: two games has been eleven personnel.

334
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 1: One tight end, one running back, three wides, three wide receivers.

335
00:17:55,720 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 2: So I think that's partially skewed because they were in

336
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,439
Speaker 2: catch up mode the entire second half against the Ravens

337
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 2: in Week one, So that's probably that number is probably

338
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 2: a little inflated because of that.

339
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 1: And it's probably deflated because of the.

340
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 2: Last week, last week's game. So I will tell you

341
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 2: between twenty two, twenty one, twelve and thirteen personnel the

342
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 2: Bills have fifty three snaps altogether in those four personnel groupings.

343
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 2: That's more than thirty five percent of their snaps. They're

344
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 2: going heavy.

345
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, that means, yeah, they've got either two tight ends.

346
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 2: Or a fullback or a fullback with a tight.

347
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: End with a tight end on all those snaps. So yeah,

348
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,199
Speaker 1: they're not just they're not spreading it out. It's not

349
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 1: one tight end, three wide and a running back.

350
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 2: Although we do see instances where they'll run twelve personnel

351
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 2: and both they'll their tight ends will be detached.

352
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, they'll they'll do that, especially, they'll do it sometimes

353
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: to find out what the defense is. Josh's it's a

354
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 1: pre snap thing. If they're going man, they're not going

355
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,120
Speaker 1: to put a I'm gonna say fingercoide. They're not gonna

356
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,919
Speaker 1: waste a corner on a big tight end out on

357
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,679
Speaker 1: the outside. Right, they're gonna put the corner in a

358
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 1: on an athlete. I can't believe I'm saying that they're

359
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 1: gonna put the corners in on a guy who's more

360
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: physically built like him, like a wide out right, and

361
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 1: they'll they'll throw a linebacker out to the sideline if

362
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,360
Speaker 1: it's man. That kind of stuff. So they they do

363
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: the split out white, the tight end stuff. Josh will

364
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 1: send them out there to see what's going on and

365
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 1: then bring them back in if he wants, or that

366
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: kind of thing. So that's more of a test tube

367
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: kind of pouring one test tube into another, like the sciences,

368
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 1: trying to find out what they're doing and decipher their

369
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,120
Speaker 1: scheme and their tactics and what they think. More so

370
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: than it is let's go out and attack them, you

371
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's more of an exploratory position

372
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 1: group and a tactic.

373
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 2: So between those tight ends between twenty one, twenty two,

374
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 2: twelve and thirteen personnel, they've run twenty two personnel the

375
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 2: most in those four power groupings.

376
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 1: Two running backs, two tight ends.

377
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we saw that a lot last gilliam Yeah, Okay,

378
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 2: most of the time there was there were one or

379
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 2: two snaps where Cook and Ty Johnson were on the

380
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 2: field at the same time. So I would say, if

381
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,400
Speaker 2: I had to guess, I would say sixteen of those

382
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 2: eighteen snaps Gilliams on the field. And last week against

383
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 2: the Jets, you saw a tight end on the right

384
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 2: side of the formation, you know, strength side, strong side,

385
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,919
Speaker 2: single back and then Reggie would be up on the

386
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:33,399
Speaker 2: back side like on a wing position. They ran that

387
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: a lot last week against the Jets. I found that interesting.

388
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 1: Here's the problem for the Dolphins. When you get a

389
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: team like Buffalo who's in a game like they were

390
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: against the Jets, where they're just the Jets are falling down,

391
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 1: they're penalties and they're pounding it out. It's not uncommon

392
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: for a team like Buffalo or whoever to start doing

393
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: stuff they ain't gonna do. You know what, Put Reggie

394
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 1: on a wing.

395
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, put this on film.

396
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: Put this on film, because they gotta they got It

397
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 1: goes into their analytics. You know, we're gonna get into

398
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 1: a third and long and we're gonna go heavy, and

399
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: that's gonna skew the analytics to where we really that's

400
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,719
Speaker 1: gonna take them away from what we really want to do.

401
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,439
Speaker 1: So a lot of that goes on because most teams

402
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,919
Speaker 1: know when we do analytics, we're doing this, this, this,

403
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 1: and this. If they're doing anything similar to that, we

404
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 1: got to screw that up for those guys. So we're

405
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: gonna put this formation on the field, this personnel grouping

406
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: on the field, and that all that stuff starts getting

407
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 1: it starts to be about camouflage for the next weekend.

408
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: And that's when you turn into a slog fist in

409
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 1: the second half, and it's like, could you could?

410
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 5: Yeah?

411
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 2: Bills are number one in total offense after two weeks,

412
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 2: four hundred and fifty yards per game.

413
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 1: Bill's game.

414
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, they have nine hundred yards and two games.

415
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 6: Uh.

416
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,199
Speaker 2: Bills are second in points per game thirty five and

417
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 2: a half. They are number two rushing offense in the

418
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 2: NFL and the number two passing offense in the NFL.

419
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 2: And with Josh Allen a quarterback, the Bills averaged thirty

420
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 2: eight points per game at home against Miami. Do you

421
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 2: think they hit thirty eight tonight? I had thirty on

422
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 2: the road against the Jet cop out.

423
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 1: I don't want to cop out on this, but it

424
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 1: depends on how the Dolphins show up.

425
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they are a part of the equation.

426
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 3: You're right.

427
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,239
Speaker 1: It feels like to me, if they need it, then

428
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: you got it right.

429
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 2: I mean, they've scored thirty points or more in eleven

430
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 2: of their last twelve games in which Josh has played

431
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,679
Speaker 2: it more than one snap. We have to keep qualifying.

432
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 2: The week eighteen throwaway game against New England that they

433
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 2: didn't care if they won or lost because their playoff

434
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 2: seating had already been assured and it could not be

435
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 2: impacted by the outcome of that game. So they sat

436
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 2: a lot of their starters in that game, so it

437
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 2: don't really count it. A thirty burger in eleven of

438
00:22:54,359 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 2: their last twelve with Alan playing, so it's hard not

439
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 2: to see them getting there, especially knowing the Dolphins have

440
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 2: given up thirty three points to each of their first

441
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 2: two opponents. They're thirty first in points all out and

442
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:14,360
Speaker 2: it was Drake May and Drake May and Daniel Jones.

443
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 1: Jones, it looks bad.

444
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 2: I think they could get to thirty.

445
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 1: It looks bad.

446
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 5: Yeah.

447
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 2: I mean, look, if you're careless with the football and

448
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 2: you give Miami a few extra opportunities and you know

449
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 2: their offense gained some traction. Maybe Mike McDaniel's got a

450
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 2: few wrinkles up his sleeve. Yes, pulls out a couple

451
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 2: of let's not forget. And we talked about this last

452
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,919
Speaker 2: week with the Jets not wanting to fall to oh

453
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 2: to two and being a desperate team. Miami is a

454
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 2: supremely desperate team because teams that go oh to three

455
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 2: do not make the playoffs. There are only six teams

456
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 2: in the history of the NFL that have started the

457
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 2: season oh and three and still made the playoffs, including

458
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 2: the nineteen ninety eight Bills, one of those six teams.

459
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,479
Speaker 2: It's not where you want to be because the uphill

460
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 2: climb is.

461
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: So arduous, and it also means too right away. You

462
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 1: need somebody to stumble down the stretch.

463
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're gonna invariably need help. You need somebody else

464
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 2: to collapse, maybe two or three teams.

465
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can't go zero to three.

466
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 2: So I guess the point I'm making with that is

467
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 2: I'm saying, if you're the Bills, as hard as this

468
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 2: might be to prepare for, you have to prepare for anything,

469
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:32,360
Speaker 2: fake punts, you know, trick plays. You have to prepare

470
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 2: that they're gonna try some of those things, especially if

471
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 2: the start of this game doesn't go the way that

472
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 2: the Dolphins want, because they need to somehow climb back

473
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 2: into the game, if they're suddenly behind, right, and if

474
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 2: there's not a lot of you know what I mean,

475
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 2: there's not a lot of time left. There are a

476
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,120
Speaker 2: lot of possessions left. They're gonna pull some things out

477
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 2: of the half.

478
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 1: It's a common scenario that teams talk about all the time.

479
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 1: If you come out and hit a bad team in

480
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,120
Speaker 1: the mouth or a team that's struggling in the mouth,

481
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: they fold up. They're not gonna they're gonna go away

482
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 1: it Probably it may not apply to this game, but

483
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,399
Speaker 1: you got to try it. If you're the Bills, you

484
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,119
Speaker 1: got to come out and try and be efficient, scoring

485
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: a first couple of drives and hope that they can't

486
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,199
Speaker 1: keep it together. Maybe get that kind of thing. If

487
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: you get out in front early and take off, it's

488
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 1: really going to be hard for a team who has

489
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 1: not done it yet to climb back into the game.

490
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: And that's what you hope for if you're Bills player,

491
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 1: a little bit of stress relief, because these games are

492
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 1: stressful going in even if you are supposed to go

493
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,640
Speaker 1: out there and do it. So it's there's a lot

494
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: in this game emotionally for these For both of these clubs.

495
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:37,959
Speaker 1: How are they going to handle a game like this

496
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: where one team is massively favored over another. How do

497
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 1: you handle it as a team. That's it's a question

498
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 1: for your leadership, and it's a question for your roster

499
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 1: and how they're going to respond on both sides of it.

500
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 2: Break time for us here. When we come back, we're

501
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 2: going to be visited by our good friend and senior

502
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 2: pretty here from NFL Films, Greg co Cell, going to

503
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 2: join us to talk some x's and o's about tonight's

504
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 2: game and what we should anticipate from those Miami Dolphins,

505
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 2: both offensively and defensively. Greg is coming up next here

506
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 2: on One Bills Live, presented by Colida Health, It's Buffalo

507
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 2: Bills Radio. All right, back here on One Bill's Live,

508
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 2: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker on a game day for Thursday

509
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 2: Night football Bills Dolphins. We are your extended pregame show

510
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:42,160
Speaker 2: today and time to talk x'es and o's. And here

511
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 2: to help us do that, senior producer from NFL Films,

512
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,199
Speaker 2: Greg Cosell, whose weekly appearance on One Bill's Live is

513
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 2: presented by Pepsi. Pepsi is the official soft drink of

514
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills Food deserves Pepsi. All right, Greg, Uh,

515
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know what to make of this

516
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 2: Miami team just yet. I thought their offense gained some

517
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:09,159
Speaker 2: traction last week against the Patriots, their defense for me,

518
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 2: is a conundrum. I don't understand why their pass rush

519
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 2: is not more effective, especially knowing they should be helping

520
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 2: a back end that is shorthanded right now. Storm Duck

521
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 2: not playing again this week because it's Minka Fitzpatrick and

522
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 2: a bunch of guys and they need help on the

523
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 2: back end. They're not getting it from their front. What

524
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,880
Speaker 2: is the film told you about their defensive shortcomings thus far?

525
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, the back end is clearly an issue. I mean,

526
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 7: right now, I guess it'll be your old buddy Douglas

527
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 7: playing at corner with A Jones on the outside, and

528
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 7: then I'll play the rookie Marshall in the slot. But

529
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 7: you're right, they're not really getting a much pass rush

530
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 7: at all in their base front. They go with Chovin

531
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 7: Phillips on the edge, and then when they go to

532
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 7: their nickel they bring Chop Robinson in and often they

533
00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,199
Speaker 7: bring Phillips inside. And you think with those players, is

534
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 7: they'd be able to generate some pass rush. They've not

535
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 7: been able to do that. So the defense, you know,

536
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 7: it's one of those games and you always have to

537
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 7: Steve could speak of this way better than I could,

538
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 7: because he's probably been through this as a player. It's

539
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 7: one of those games where you look at it and

540
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 7: you think, how could this team match up to Buffalo?

541
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 7: You know, you know, I'm sure a lot of people

542
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,360
Speaker 7: are thinking this is a forty to ten game there

543
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 7: at home, and we know the NFL doesn't always work

544
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 7: like that. But you look at this defense and I

545
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 7: just look at the back end and you think, Okay,

546
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 7: can they really put the brakes on a Bill's pass game?

547
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,680
Speaker 7: Assuming the game plays out where the Bills throw the ball.

548
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 7: That's not the way the game played out last week?

549
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, right. I mean, the Bills were up on the

550
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 1: Jets big, and they kind of pulled in their sales

551
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 1: and they started putting some things on We've been discussing

552
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: and debating and the fact that maybe they put some

553
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: things on film that they wouldn't really do anyway anytime,

554
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 1: and Kid's got to prepare for it. That I mean

555
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 1: is that kind of game last week against the Jets,

556
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: and which always pumps up the tires of a team

557
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 1: like the Bill and always causes people to take the

558
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: air out of the Miami Dolphins and their chances. These

559
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: teams play each other all the time, Certainly, the Bills

560
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 1: have had their way and Josh is really good against Miami.

561
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 1: They're at home, it's a night game, and there's all

562
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 1: kinds of metrics that point towards the Buffalo Bills. But

563
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 1: I thought the most interesting thing about this was how

564
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 1: are the Bills going to attack a team that they

565
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: seem to be much better than.

566
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 7: Well, you know, normally the way and you guys know this,

567
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 7: you're there in the building. Normally, Joe Brady wants his

568
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 7: offense to be balanced. I mean, they rarely come out

569
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 7: and just toss it all over the yard. That's not

570
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,719
Speaker 7: really the way they play. I mean, can they do

571
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 7: that if they choose. Probably. We know that Josh Allen

572
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,959
Speaker 7: is capable of playing any style that a game demands,

573
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 7: But I don't think they want to play like that.

574
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 7: I think they want to be balanced. Look, probably the

575
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 7: best thing for Josh about Sunday's game is, other than

576
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 7: getting up, Ldy knows, it felt like I watched the

577
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 7: tape and I felt like Josh, you know, he didn't

578
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 7: really have to do very much. You know, he's probably thrilled,

579
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 7: his body wasn't beat up to have to play four

580
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 7: days later. But you know, a team like Miami and

581
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 7: particularly on offense and Brownie. I'm sure you know, we'll

582
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 7: talk about the offense and a lot of people are

583
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 7: down on Tua, but you know that maybe it hasn't

584
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 7: happened a lot against Buffalo. But if he gets into

585
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 7: that timing rhythm mode where he can hit his back

586
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 7: foot deliver the ball, they've got speed all throughout that

587
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 7: offense that you can't you can't just assume they're not

588
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 7: a good offense.

589
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 3: Now.

590
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 7: I think that they're a little out of whack with

591
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 7: their run pass ratio. I mean last week in a

592
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 7: close game all the way pretty much against New England,

593
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 7: they had thirty seven to of dropbacks and just twelve

594
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 7: carries by backs. I don't think they can play that way,

595
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 7: and that surprised me with Mike Mike McDaniel, who's really

596
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:51,479
Speaker 7: a good run game orchestrator. But you know, you know,

597
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 7: they can hit Tyreek Hill on a slant or an

598
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 7: inbreaker and he can go seventy yards on any given play.

599
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 7: You gotta be careful. This is not a team you

600
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 7: can just fall asleep on.

601
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 4: Yeah.

602
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 2: Two part question with regard to Miami's offense. Part one,

603
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 2: what has been the biggest sticking point in their either

604
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 2: a unwillingness to run the ball or be effectiveness in

605
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 2: running the ball. Is it the fact that you know

606
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,719
Speaker 2: the right side of their offensive line are backups right

607
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 2: now with James Daniels and Austin Jackson on I are

608
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:30,239
Speaker 2: and then B. Each of the first two defenses they

609
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 2: have faced have adopted a method that Sean McDermott and

610
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 2: his coordinators have come up with over the years against Miami,

611
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 2: which is to clog the middle of the field between

612
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 2: the numbers and force to throw outside the numbers, knowing

613
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 2: he is not an elite arm talent. It looked like

614
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 2: the Colts and the Patriots did that a lot here

615
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 2: in these first two games with some measure of effectiveness.

616
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 2: So part one the run game, Part two clogging up

617
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 2: the middle of the field.

618
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, I can't speak to what's in Mike McDaniel's head,

619
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 7: but I think that Tua is not the kind of

620
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 7: quarterback that you can ask to drop back, you know,

621
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 7: forty times all the time. I just don't think you

622
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 7: can do that. And we'll see, you know, we'll see

623
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 7: how they come out and choose to play on the road,

624
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 7: because I would think The last thing they would want

625
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 7: to have happened is, you know in Buffalo to all

626
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 7: of a sudden be down seventeen to three. You know,

627
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 7: I would think they want to try to somehow control

628
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 7: the pace and tempo of this game. And you do

629
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 7: that more running the ball than throwing the ball. And

630
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 7: you make a great point about when I watched the

631
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 7: tape this past week against New England, Mike Rabel and

632
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 7: his defensive staff, they had two rushes in the game, Brownie,

633
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 7: of five or five guys every other dropback, they had

634
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 7: seven in coverage, high, high percentage zone. Because what are

635
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 7: you trying to do. You're trying to minimize and close

636
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 7: down the windows. That's what Tua is at his best.

637
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 7: He's a window thrower with great timing and anticipation. You

638
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 7: want to close down on the windows. They did pretty

639
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 7: good Janow Toua did not have a bad game less week.

640
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 7: He started off struggling a bit where he just he

641
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 7: wasn't seeing it exactly the right way, or or he

642
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 7: just wasn't processing it exactly the right way. But he

643
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 7: sort of settled into that game. He kind of settled in.

644
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 7: He played too fast mentally early and he rushed through

645
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 7: his reads, but he settled in. So, like I said,

646
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 7: you can't take two of for granted here. I mean

647
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 7: they can hit big plays.

648
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's really what you're afraid of. How do

649
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 1: what are the Dolphins doing to try and generate those?

650
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 1: Certainly Tyreek has you know, it's been well talked about

651
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 1: a lot, how he's he has not hit for big

652
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 1: plays lately, Waddle, although he's a question mark and he's

653
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: gonna try it out to go tonight. How have Miami

654
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 1: been trying to disperse their personnel to take advantage of

655
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 1: these defenses where they're clogging in the middle and you know,

656
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 1: only sending a handful of rushers.

657
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 7: I mean, well, you know, then you get into and again,

658
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 7: Mike McDaniel knows his quarterback better than we do. But

659
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 7: then you get into what can do a do?

660
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 4: Is this?

661
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 7: In some ways I think his career guys up to

662
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,880
Speaker 7: this point has kind of suggested that this is who

663
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,480
Speaker 7: he is and there's really not a whole lot more

664
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 7: to him. When when when it looks good, boy, they

665
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 7: look really good when he's hitting these kinds of throws

666
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,839
Speaker 7: that we're looking at right now. Then Hill has run

667
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:30,440
Speaker 7: after catch it looks really good. It looks so comfortable,

668
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 7: it looks so easy. You know, if Waddle can't go,

669
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 7: I mean a chain will probably be involved more, you know,

670
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 7: getting him, trying to get him on the perimeter, just

671
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:43,439
Speaker 7: getting him in space. But it's I'm just not sure

672
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 7: there's a lot more you can do with Tua. He's

673
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 7: pretty he's really good at one thing, but he's pretty

674
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:51,919
Speaker 7: narrow in in what that is. There's not much more

675
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 7: he can do beyond that.

676
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 2: Flipping it over to the bills on offense. And I

677
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,880
Speaker 2: realize it's only a two game sample here, but we

678
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:05,399
Speaker 2: I've really seen Joe Brady lean into heavy personnel even more.

679
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 2: By my count, Okay, by my count, I've got fifty

680
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:13,080
Speaker 2: three total snaps in the first two games where they

681
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 2: are using either twenty one, twenty two, twelve or thirteen personnel.

682
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 2: They have some combination of a full back and a

683
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 2: tight end or two or three tight ends on the field,

684
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,360
Speaker 2: and they have really leaned into this greg and it

685
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,839
Speaker 2: has worked for them even when the opponent knows what's coming,

686
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,440
Speaker 2: most notably the Jets as the most recent example. How

687
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 2: far do you feel Joe Brady will lean into that

688
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 2: regardless of the opponent week to week.

689
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,400
Speaker 7: I would expect that they'll try to lean into it

690
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,399
Speaker 7: and unless the game dictates otherwise. Now, obviously I don't

691
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,879
Speaker 7: think Jackson Hawes will play thirty five snaps every week.

692
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 7: I'm sure the nature of the game against the Jets

693
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 7: indicated that they could do that, But I think all

694
00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 7: this is part of how they want to play. Forget,

695
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,960
Speaker 7: they can still throw the ball at a base personnel grouping,

696
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 7: so it's not as if it's an automatic run. They

697
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 7: can still throw the ball. You know, one thing I

698
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 7: thought they did last week which I'm curious to see

699
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 7: if they'll do more of. And they've done it, you know,

700
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 7: through the years, but you know, getting Josh out on

701
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 7: play action boot and then getting the ball to a

702
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 7: tight end, let's say, out in space a little bit.

703
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 7: I think that's a good concept for them, based on

704
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:29,399
Speaker 7: the run game element. So I would think that Joe

705
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 7: Brady for the most part, would would stay with it. Now, again,

706
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 7: well we don't know is how he sees particular defenses

707
00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 7: that they play against. Look, we talked about the fact

708
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,360
Speaker 7: that the Dolphins right now are really struggling on the

709
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,399
Speaker 7: back end. Who's to say they don't come out throwing

710
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 7: the ball to I try to go up, like I

711
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 7: said seventeen three and feel like, hey, not that they

712
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,359
Speaker 7: put the game away. You never put the game away

713
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 7: till it's over. But feel like, hey, now we make

714
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,279
Speaker 7: the Dolphins play a certain way and we can control that.

715
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 7: So you don't know, but I think I don't think.

716
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,200
Speaker 7: I guess what I'm saying is I think they they

717
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 7: want this to be a major part of their foundation. Brownie.

718
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 7: I don't think that last week was an aberration.

719
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,799
Speaker 1: Or as we know him so well, this Bill's team.

720
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 1: But their offensive line, the same five guys, has been

721
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 1: the same five guys almost for three straight years. How

722
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 1: are they playing?

723
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 7: I think they're just a really solid group. And and

724
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,439
Speaker 7: you know this week in the run game against the Jets,

725
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 7: and by the way, the Jets don't have a bad

726
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 7: d line, but they really control the line of scrimmage.

727
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 7: I mean, for the most part, Cook was not hit.

728
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 7: I mean, maybe there were one or two plays or

729
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 7: three plays, but for the most part, he got through

730
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 7: that first level to the point where he could have

731
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:42,359
Speaker 7: sustaining runs. I mean, and and every time I watch Cook,

732
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 7: I'm really even more impressed because I really liked him

733
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 7: coming out of college, but I didn't think he could

734
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 7: be this guy. I mean, he gets hard earned yards.

735
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 7: You know, he's not just a fast guy. He gets tough,

736
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 7: tough yards.

737
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:55,320
Speaker 4: You know.

738
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,279
Speaker 7: You wonder with his body, can it hold up over

739
00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 7: the course of the whole season, just because obviously he's

740
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,880
Speaker 7: not two hunder twenty pounds, but he's not just a

741
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 7: little scatback by any stretch of the imagination.

742
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 2: And what do you think We've already talked about the

743
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 2: secondary for the Dolphins and how shorthanded and inexperience they are,

744
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 2: but what about at the second level there? I mean,

745
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 2: Tyrell Dotson, I would not call coverage a strength of his.

746
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,720
Speaker 2: I don't know if I would say that about Jordan

747
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,800
Speaker 2: Brooks either. And their nickel, as you mentioned, is a

748
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 2: rookie out of Florida and Jason Marshall. Could this be

749
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 2: a day where, you know you just mentioned bootleg tight

750
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 2: end pass game. I'm wondering if this could be a

751
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,040
Speaker 2: big game for Kincaid or Knox or somebody like that

752
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 2: in light of the second level defense for the Dolphins.

753
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm just going to tell you from tape,

754
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 7: and what other teams think that if you're starting Dotson

755
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 7: as a linebacker and he's playing every snap, then you're

756
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 7: not as good as you need to be at linebacker.

757
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 7: You saw that in Buffalo. They cut him in Seattle

758
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,360
Speaker 7: because they just didn't think he was good enough. They

759
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 7: cut him in the middle of the season when they

760
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 7: really when they ended up putting in a fourth round

761
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 7: rookie to replace him. So, you know, just being honest

762
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,800
Speaker 7: with what the tape shows, that's that's the reality. So

763
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 7: they're not quite as good as they need to be

764
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 7: at the linebacker position. I think Brooks is a good player.

765
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 7: He's a better run player than he is a pass defender,

766
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:19,919
Speaker 7: but he's a good player. He's a true quality starting stackbacker.

767
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 7: Dotson is really a backup.

768
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 2: Yeah right, Greg, Thanks for all the insight. We appreciate it.

769
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 2: Enjoy the game tonight. We'll catch up with you next week.

770
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 7: Looking forward to it, guys, have fun.

771
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,759
Speaker 2: Thanks great, all right, thanks Greg, Bill's Mafia. It's tailgating

772
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 2: season and there's nothing better than a nice cold Pepsi

773
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 2: zero sugar to pair with your tailgating food rituals. As

774
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:45,440
Speaker 2: the great Josh Allen One said, Bill's fans deserve Pepsi

775
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 2: for the home opener. Bill's Mafia brought it, and so

776
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 2: did Pepsi. They kicked off the tailgate season the right

777
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 2: way and they expect to keep it rolling through the

778
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:57,800
Speaker 2: rest of the year. Bill's tailgates deserve Pepsi go bills,

779
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 2: so start tipping them back early. I like the zero sugars.

780
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:06,399
Speaker 1: They're great.

781
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 2: They taste more like regular pepsi. So if you can't

782
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 2: sweat the calories, you know you're you're an older person

783
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,360
Speaker 2: like us, and your metabolism has slowed down to an

784
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:20,880
Speaker 2: annoying level and you want the taste of regular pepsi.

785
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 2: Pepsi zero sugar comes very close. It comes very close

786
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 2: to original PEPs.

787
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 1: You'll see it. I'm you can feel in our commercial

788
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,040

Speaker 2: The harvest is underway and we have some of the

804
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,440
Speaker 2: first apples of the seasons right here in studio. They're

805
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 2: great tasting no matter what you pair them with, but

806
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,000
Speaker 2: the best way to enjoy them might be on their own.

807
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 2: The taste speaks for itself. I just scarfed one down

808
00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:41,919
Speaker 2: earlier in the show snap Dragon Apples. They're in New York.

809
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 2: Bread and boast of monster crunch, spicy sweet flavor, and

810
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 2: a slight hint of vanilla, and the juice second to none.

811
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:53,840
Speaker 2: Snapdragon Apples will be available soon, both in store and

812
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 2: a farm stands in New York and around the country.

813
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 2: Is the official apple of the Buffalo Bills. They're perfect

814
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 2: for football fans. Your energy high during game day so

815
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 2: you can focus on tailgating, celebrating, and enjoying the big game.

816
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:08,880
Speaker 2: Snapdragon Apples are the perfect choice for anyone with a competitive,

817
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:11,759
Speaker 2: adventurous spirits. Snappy and his crew will have Snapdragon apple

818
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 2: slices on the billivard today before the game. Look for

819
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 2: the big red dragon. His name's Snappy. This fall gets

820
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 2: Snapdragon Apples and Wegmans and other retailers for all your

821
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 2: game day and Fall adventure needs. And like I said,

822
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 2: I already scarfed one down in a hurry here during

823
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,760
Speaker 2: one of the breaks. Steve was chomping on one here before.

824
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:33,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I finished one in the break as well.

825
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 2: It was nurse not perfect when it's apple picking season,

826
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:41,239
Speaker 2: Like that's when I like eating apples the most. Not

827
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 2: that I wouldn't eat an apple any other time of year,

828
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 2: but like you're kind of jonesing for an apple, you

829
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:46,080
Speaker 2: know what I mean.

830
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 3: That's good.

831
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 2: That's why they came in here. The good people from

832
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 2: Snapdragon Apples came in here earlier and they handed me

833
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 2: one that wasn't in the bag because they didn't want

834
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,200
Speaker 2: me emptying the bag. And I was like, well, that

835
00:42:58,280 --> 00:42:59,879
Speaker 2: was a good idea because I already.

836
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:04,399
Speaker 1: Ate top the bag back off. Ever, so yeah, if.

837
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 2: You're tailgating today here at the game, go check them

838
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,480
Speaker 2: out on the Billvard. They'll they'll have the tent set

839
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 2: up over there with snapping the dragon. He'll be handing

840
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,759
Speaker 2: out apples, so you want to get it. If you've

841
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 2: never tried to snap dragon apple before, this is a

842
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:22,240
Speaker 2: good opportunity to do that. He'll be handing out slices.

843
00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 2: You'll see you can see what the hubbubs all about.

844
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,719
Speaker 1: You'll see the signs under the tent over on the

845
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 1: Bill Ofvard out here out in the stadium this afternoon,

846
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 1: so it'll be fun.

847
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,400
Speaker 2: How do you see tonight's game playing out? That is

848
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,359
Speaker 2: the topic of discussion for you here at ADO three

849
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,480
Speaker 2: oh five fifty. So let's go to the phones now,

850
00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 2: and leading us off this segment is Ryan in Toronto.

851
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 1: What do you got for us?

852
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:44,359
Speaker 3: Ryan?

853
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 8: Steve?

854
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 5: Happy game day? Honestly, I'm not new with at all,

855
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 5: but I don't see no reason why it was not

856
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 5: should take out of business with the Dolphins. But I

857
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 5: look at your flip center of the coin as well.

858
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:02,520
Speaker 5: The Dolphins. This is the season, the playoff game, elimination game.

859
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,319
Speaker 5: I think if they go over three, they can kiss

860
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 5: the playoff games goodbye. There jobs on the line, and

861
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:11,239
Speaker 5: I think Dophin are going to come out strong and

862
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 5: they're going to give everything they have, and I just

863
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 5: hope the Bills are ready for it. And that's all

864
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 5: I take.

865
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,320
Speaker 1: Right, listen to me. I want to ask you what

866
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: happens if the Bills win this game thirteen to ten?

867
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:21,719
Speaker 1: Does that change things for you?

868
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 8: No?

869
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:24,760
Speaker 5: It doesn't.

870
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:25,040
Speaker 4: You know what?

871
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:28,640
Speaker 5: That that makes it competitive? At least boarding game? The

872
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 5: classic Steve.

873
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:33,360
Speaker 2: Good answer.

874
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,319
Speaker 1: I was bored last week in the second half.

875
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 5: You're right, I want a nail bier, man, I want

876
00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:40,320
Speaker 5: to I want a nail bighter, not a snoozer.

877
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:42,879
Speaker 1: A nail biting win, not a nail biting loss.

878
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:48,000
Speaker 5: Of course, yeah, exactly. Yeah, should have game. Look at

879
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:49,680
Speaker 5: it for a Week one game. That was a nail bier,

880
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,839
Speaker 5: and I will to win. That was hectic. I could

881
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,840
Speaker 5: have seen the night before, right n night after. Secondly,

882
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 5: that's the Week two win against that jack. It was

883
00:44:59,000 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 5: a slooser man.

884
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 3: Come on, I'm just happy with the win.

885
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:07,879
Speaker 1: But thanks for the call for calling right. He's right,

886
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,239
Speaker 1: I was. I was right there with him. I came

887
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 1: in on, you were bored on Monday morning, I was like,

888
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 1: bor ring, I mean, who needs it?

889
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 2: I'll take it every single week. I don't mind.

890
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:20,480
Speaker 1: Boring, Brownie. You need one of those games. You need

891
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 1: a game to ends like the one like.

892
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 2: Week we had it, week one another.

893
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 1: So let's wait a little bit, because then your calls

894
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,359
Speaker 1: go nationwide. They'll be like that, here's the local call,

895
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 1: what it's about.

896
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 2: Let's get out with the w let's all care about.

897
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, that game last week in the second half because

898
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,839
Speaker 1: and I'll say why, because the Jets just stunk it up. Well,

899
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:45,800
Speaker 1: they absolutely fold at home in there, they absolutely folded

900
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:47,439
Speaker 1: it up and quit and went home.

901
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 2: And that that's like, yeah, they kind of laid down. Yeah,

902
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 2: And that was That's why Aaron Glenn was seeing at

903
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 2: his post.

904
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 1: He was seething and he had every right.

905
00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 2: To, yeah, because that's not what he wants his team

906
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:01,520
Speaker 2: to be about. And it's only week two. I think

907
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 2: he's realizing how much work.

908
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:07,839
Speaker 1: Yes, games like that start the talent, start, the start

909
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 1: a count for how long some of the players are

910
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:12,799
Speaker 1: going to stick with this head coach. And I mean

911
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,320
Speaker 1: I don't mean I mean the head coach sticking with

912
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,759
Speaker 1: some of the players, even good to the Jets. For

913
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:19,840
Speaker 1: the Jets, Aaron Glenn right there, I was looking at

914
00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,759
Speaker 1: that whole roster, going all right, how long until I

915
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:23,360
Speaker 1: can get rid of you?

916
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,000
Speaker 2: Who are the wrong guys on? That's right?

917
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:29,200
Speaker 1: Who's going to jump on here? And who's who's just coasting?

918
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 2: Who do we need to throw off?

919
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:34,880
Speaker 1: It's it's necessary for every major rebuild you have to

920
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 1: jettis of some players who can play pretty well, but

921
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:41,759
Speaker 1: who just have had their spirit broken for they're they're

922
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:44,160
Speaker 1: not bought in. Whatever the reason is, they're not the

923
00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 1: right guy. You've got to be ready to say, you

924
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:49,440
Speaker 1: know what, thanks, but you're not the guy for us.

925
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,960
Speaker 1: And Aaron Glenn got a good look at a lot

926
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 1: of his roster last week against the Bills.

927
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 2: Let's go to Dylan and Binghamton before the break. Here,

928
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,759
Speaker 2: what's up Dylan, guys good?

929
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 7: So I just want to talk about how after last

930
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,560
Speaker 7: year's season, when James Cook steps on the field, he

931
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 7: just kind of has a different aura and confidence to him.

932
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:11,520
Speaker 1: This year, he knows what he's doing.

933
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think he knew his assignments last

934
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:18,800
Speaker 2: week or last year. I should say, I don't know.

935
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,920
Speaker 2: Maybe the contract extension as him playing freely now because

936
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:26,560
Speaker 2: he doesn't have to worry about that anymore. Are you

937
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 2: kind of saying he's just got a different demeanor about him?

938
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:30,400
Speaker 2: What are you getting at?

939
00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:32,400
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't mean like, I don't mean how he

940
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:33,240
Speaker 9: plays or anything.

941
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:36,720
Speaker 7: I just mean his like, uh, what's the word.

942
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 9: I'm looking for?

943
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 4: Like his his.

944
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:47,120
Speaker 2: Okay, like his aura if you will, Yeah, Okay, you

945
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:48,719
Speaker 2: think it's different this year? All right?

946
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 3: All right?

947
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:54,719
Speaker 2: I mean I respect it. I think the numbers he

948
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:58,080
Speaker 2: put up last year were comparable to the numbers he

949
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,320
Speaker 2: put up the year before. I mean, he did it

950
00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:03,160
Speaker 2: two years in a row. Now he's got the money

951
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 2: and the extension that indicates the team believes in him

952
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:10,320
Speaker 2: as well, and I think he wants to go get it.

953
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 2: I mean, we had Josh Palmer in the studio here

954
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 2: with us last week and he said, on those final drives,

955
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 2: Cooks the guy in the huddle, going, we need you

956
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:21,880
Speaker 2: guys to make some plays in the passing game. Now

957
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 2: we need you guys. H James Cooks, the guy talking

958
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:27,239
Speaker 2: in the huddle. I was surprised to hear.

959
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 1: That there could be a lot of reasons for James

960
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,839
Speaker 1: cook having his finger quotes. Whatever you know, Dylan meant

961
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:38,320
Speaker 1: one is in these first two games of the season.

962
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 1: They leaned on him. I mean, they gave him a line.

963
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 1: He was treated like a number one superstar back who's

964
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:49,480
Speaker 1: getting paid. They had not done that before. There are

965
00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:52,640
Speaker 1: certain games here and there in that and when a

966
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:57,560
Speaker 1: guy senses that his organization in the entire team is

967
00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:02,000
Speaker 1: leaning on him and looking to him and give him opportunities, yeah,

968
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 1: changes things. It changes things a lot. And that you

969
00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 1: might that might be what you're sensing from James Cook.

970
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:12,520
Speaker 1: They needed him in these first two games and he

971
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 1: came through a form and all I've said it a

972
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:19,120
Speaker 1: million times on this show. Most players what they really

973
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 1: want just let me, just let me help, give me

974
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:23,239
Speaker 1: a chance to help. And as a running back, you

975
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:25,200
Speaker 1: know what that means. Means give them the ball, yep.

976
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:27,879
Speaker 1: And they are doing that with James Cook.

977
00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 2: And you know that first touchdown he had last week

978
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,640
Speaker 2: against the Jets was very reminiscent of the touchdown he

979
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 2: had against the Chiefs in the AFC Championship game. Same thing,

980
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:39,720
Speaker 2: putting his hand on the ground as he's getting tackled

981
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 2: reaching over the goal line to score. I mean, he

982
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:47,080
Speaker 2: is straining to make plays for this football team. Got

983
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,080
Speaker 2: to take a break here, because when we come back.

984
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,720
Speaker 2: Our number two begins with the Hall of Famer Thurman

985
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,400
Speaker 2: Thomas is gonna join us in studio. He's taken in

986
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:59,400
Speaker 2: the game tonight from his usual seats. We had a

987
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 2: we had a bet going what jersey number he was

988
00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:05,320
Speaker 2: gonna wear. We'll have to see what the reveal is

989
00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:07,400
Speaker 2: when we return here on One Bill's Live presented by

990
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:08,959
Speaker 2: Colida Health. It's Buffalo Bills Radio.

991
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:57,799
Speaker 1: This this One Bill's Live presented by Calida Health.

992
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 2: All right, welcome into our number two as we are

993
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:04,319
Speaker 2: your extended pre game here on One Bill's Live. Chris Brown,

994
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:07,360
Speaker 2: Steve Tasker, Thursday Night football Bills Dolphins tonight, joining us

995
00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 2: in studio, the Hall of Famer Thurman Thomas, and welcome back.

996
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 2: I wanted to talk to you right off the rip

997
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:20,680
Speaker 2: here about the Bill's use of heavy personnel last week.

998
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,360
Speaker 2: They did some of it the week before too, So

999
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:27,680
Speaker 2: here are the numbers for you. Fifty three total snaps

1000
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:32,240
Speaker 2: through two games of either twenty one, twenty two, twelve

1001
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:37,800
Speaker 2: or thirteen personnel. So that's fifty three plays, which is

1002
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,680
Speaker 2: about thirty five percent of their total snaps already with

1003
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 2: heavy personnel on the field, either at least one fullback

1004
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:45,279
Speaker 2: and a tight end or two tight ends or three

1005
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:48,240
Speaker 2: tight ends, and that's not even counting the jumbo package

1006
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 2: with Alec Anderson. I feel like this is going to

1007
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:56,000
Speaker 2: be part of who they are this year every week,

1008
00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 2: right what you think?

1009
00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:58,399
Speaker 3: I think so too.

1010
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,359
Speaker 10: I think they're showing them National Football League. We can

1011
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,880
Speaker 10: do it either way here, baby. We can line up

1012
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:06,239
Speaker 10: three tight ends, two tight ends, or we we haven't

1013
00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:09,800
Speaker 10: even really showed you our maybe four wide out package

1014
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 10: or whatever. But yeah, we can do it either way

1015
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:16,680
Speaker 10: against anybody. And we like, like we talked last week,

1016
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:19,920
Speaker 10: we thought that it was going to be not a

1017
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:22,319
Speaker 10: tight game, but a physical game, and they wore them

1018
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:24,279
Speaker 10: out from start to finish. They wore them out from

1019
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:25,920
Speaker 10: start to finish. So I think this was a good

1020
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:30,000
Speaker 10: a good win, a great win actually for the Bills

1021
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:33,319
Speaker 10: Baltimore and the Jets. Men won on the road then

1022
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 10: handle them very very well because I think we said, well,

1023
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:41,839
Speaker 10: what kind of game would you like from the Jets ball?

1024
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:44,440
Speaker 10: We said, justin fields, throwing the ball forty or fifty

1025
00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:45,759
Speaker 10: times or whatever it might have been.

1026
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 3: They didn't have to do that. They didn't allow that

1027
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:48,640
Speaker 3: to happen.

1028
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,000
Speaker 10: They did not allow that and when I said, like,

1029
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 10: you know, it's time for somebody else to step up,

1030
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:55,319
Speaker 10: defense stepped up.

1031
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:56,920
Speaker 3: They really did.

1032
00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 10: And you know, I mean, look at Josh, I'm gonna said,

1033
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:03,200
Speaker 10: what one hundred and forty? Yeah, And so when I

1034
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 10: no touchdown? No touchdown, Now that's a that's amazing. I

1035
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:08,160
Speaker 10: can't believe he didn't play better.

1036
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:10,759
Speaker 3: I mean, come on, man, what do you do? Come on?

1037
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 1: Man?

1038
00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:13,600
Speaker 3: If you give us more one week and now nothing,

1039
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:14,840
Speaker 3: come on, what's going on?

1040
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,000
Speaker 1: Is we mentioned this in the in the run because

1041
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:19,040
Speaker 1: we always talking about James when he cookie, when he

1042
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 1: come in here, and last year he had two hundred

1043
00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:25,160
Speaker 1: and what was it, two hundred and forty not even yeah,

1044
00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:28,319
Speaker 1: two hundred and forty touches. It's about right, twenty six

1045
00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 1: he had two o eight carries and like thirty six

1046
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:36,240
Speaker 1: run or catches. He's on pace now for three hundred

1047
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:39,920
Speaker 1: and forty. I like it right, So that I'm not

1048
00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,359
Speaker 1: saying that because they paid him, they're gonna, but that's

1049
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:44,600
Speaker 1: gotta maz. How does that make you feel when you

1050
00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:47,839
Speaker 1: come in and you know you're gonna be they're gonna

1051
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:49,880
Speaker 1: lean on you. Man, You're gonna get a chance to

1052
00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 1: do it. What's that. How does that change things for

1053
00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:52,600
Speaker 1: James cook Well.

1054
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:53,719
Speaker 3: I think it changes a lot.

1055
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 10: I think it builds more confidence in him that I

1056
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:59,600
Speaker 10: can be out here anytime, at any first, second, or

1057
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:04,759
Speaker 10: third and I think that gives the offensive coordinator, you know,

1058
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 10: a lot more confidence to call.

1059
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:07,600
Speaker 3: Pretty much anything.

1060
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,759
Speaker 10: I mean, because he look, and let's not forget now

1061
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 10: these first two games, we do have one of the

1062
00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 10: best running offensive lions in the National Football League. They

1063
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:19,960
Speaker 10: can pass block and they can run block. And I

1064
00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 10: think this is giving Cooker so much confidence that he

1065
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:24,319
Speaker 10: wants to do And I hope he heard me at

1066
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:25,840
Speaker 10: the beginning of the year like I want him to

1067
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 10: do more, and I think he's doing more, and I

1068
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:30,800
Speaker 10: think he'll be I think he'll be successful doing what

1069
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:35,040
Speaker 10: over three hundred some carriers rushing and maybe catching the football.

1070
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:38,120
Speaker 10: And I don't think it'll affect him at all. He

1071
00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 10: takes great care of himself. He's you know, he's a

1072
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:44,800
Speaker 10: hard worker, and he doesn't take a lot of shots.

1073
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:49,520
Speaker 10: He does not take not big shots. I mean I

1074
00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:51,800
Speaker 10: don't I can't actually remember when the last time he

1075
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:52,640
Speaker 10: took a big shot.

1076
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 3: I mean, because he's so elusive and he just he's

1077
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:56,640
Speaker 3: explosive and.

1078
00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:58,920
Speaker 1: Any when he does the Sutyard stuff that kind of

1079
00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:01,200
Speaker 1: he kind of dives into pile kind of right. So

1080
00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 1: even like this play we're watching here, they kind of

1081
00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:05,880
Speaker 1: you get it's a different league now, of course, but

1082
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:10,359
Speaker 1: they get dragged down a lot, right instead of more

1083
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:14,200
Speaker 1: so than hit lit up, lit up. No, it's uh,

1084
00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:15,880
Speaker 1: you're right, it is.

1085
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:21,600
Speaker 3: The touchdown run was absolutely beautiful.

1086
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:23,839
Speaker 1: I mean the short on way he reached it over

1087
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:27,080
Speaker 1: or no, you mean the long long he went he

1088
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 1: went left. No, he went left, right, back to the

1089
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,480
Speaker 1: left on a hop and came back to the right.

1090
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:41,080
Speaker 3: And after that he was full speed like it was automatic.

1091
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:43,120
Speaker 1: It was like three steps into that. I said, oh

1092
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:47,920
Speaker 1: my gosh, she's right. So like, oh my god, they

1093
00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:48,560
Speaker 1: ain't gonna get it.

1094
00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:51,320
Speaker 10: Yeah, but but I do like the overall, you know,

1095
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 10: the game, first couple of games in in this year,

1096
00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:58,439
Speaker 10: and uh, yeah, he's showing that he can. He's picked

1097
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,440
Speaker 10: off where he left off from ANFC Championship got game

1098
00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 10: last year against City Man just being a total dominant

1099
00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:06,239
Speaker 10: guy on the football field. And I hope he keep

1100
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:08,799
Speaker 10: it up. I hope he continues this pace. And uh,

1101
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,319
Speaker 10: and I'm sure you know, in that running back room. Yeah,

1102
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:15,080
Speaker 10: they like Ray haven't been Ray just yet, but I

1103
00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:17,759
Speaker 10: think he'll get there and maybe that'll help later on

1104
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:18,400
Speaker 10: in the season.

1105
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:20,960
Speaker 3: But right now it's uh, it's a James cook Shaw

1106
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:22,040
Speaker 3: and I absolutely love it.

1107
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:30,600
Speaker 2: Do we anticipate tonight the Bills similarly exerting their will

1108
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:32,920
Speaker 2: on this Dolphins defensive front?

1109
00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:36,239
Speaker 3: I think so, because I can't name one person on

1110
00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:37,200
Speaker 3: their defense really.

1111
00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:39,680
Speaker 2: I mean, Zach Steeler is, you know, a Pro Bowl

1112
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:41,640
Speaker 2: level defensive tackle. He's a good player.

1113
00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 1: The Chubb Chop, Robinson Sealer and Jalen Phillips. I mean,

1114
00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:50,680
Speaker 1: they got past rushes and their d line is actually

1115
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:51,200
Speaker 1: pretty good.

1116
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:55,160
Speaker 2: Well, much like the Bills. They drafted three defensive tackles.

1117
00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,360
Speaker 2: I mean, the Bills drafted three defensive linemen. The Dolphins

1118
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:02,000
Speaker 2: drafted three offensive tackles. Kenneth Grant in the first round,

1119
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:04,440
Speaker 2: Jordan Phillips in the fifth round, and Zeke Bigger's in

1120
00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:08,400
Speaker 2: the seventh round. They all dress and rotate through, but

1121
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:12,120
Speaker 2: they're kind of learning on the job here. And Zach

1122
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:15,160
Speaker 2: Steelers a vet, and so is Benito Jones was questionable tonight.

1123
00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:17,520
Speaker 2: We don't know if he's playing. I'm just wondering if

1124
00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:19,160
Speaker 2: the Bills are going to take the same approach they

1125
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:20,880
Speaker 2: did with the Jets and just lean on them for

1126
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:24,000
Speaker 2: the first part of this game and just say we're

1127
00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 2: better than you with the line of scrimmage and until

1128
00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:29,280
Speaker 2: you can stop it, we're just gonna keep on coming.

1129
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:31,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, what will we see?

1130
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:38,560
Speaker 2: Well, we didn't know, like the secondary.

1131
00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:39,520
Speaker 1: Is a wreck, so you'd think, okay with you know,

1132
00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:44,000
Speaker 1: with Keon and Palmer, and they're going to throw it

1133
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:45,920
Speaker 1: drop back and and see if they can hold up

1134
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:46,360
Speaker 1: back there.

1135
00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:48,640
Speaker 3: But then maybe Josh madd Now he's.

1136
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:55,439
Speaker 1: There right there, he's gonna throw four hundred yards. Josh

1137
00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:57,160
Speaker 1: sits there in the team media and washing him. Go ahead,

1138
00:57:57,160 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 1: what you know, come on, I'm a little something, you

1139
00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:00,320
Speaker 1: know for the effort.

1140
00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 10: Yeah, he's gonna put up forty passes a night for

1141
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 10: three touchdowns.

1142
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:08,360
Speaker 1: To the coaching staff, and you know you got Josh

1143
00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 1: under the hood, don't you just say? You know what, Josh,

1144
00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:13,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna hand this off again today. We're

1145
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:18,439
Speaker 1: gonna let him or or you got yet, like we said,

1146
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,960
Speaker 1: Joshua Palmer, Keon Coleman, and Khalil Shaki, They're going to

1147
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:22,920
Speaker 1: do not come on.

1148
00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, but I think the office will take care

1149
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:27,800
Speaker 10: of themselves.

1150
00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:29,800
Speaker 3: I think whatever game plan that they have tonight.

1151
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:32,840
Speaker 10: And I'm not saying like there's nobody on Miami, but hey,

1152
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:34,919
Speaker 10: there's guys, you know, the National Football League.

1153
00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 3: They're gonna come to play tonight, you know.

1154
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,240
Speaker 10: And so I don't know what that aspect of the

1155
00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:41,720
Speaker 10: game is gonna be, but I do know it has

1156
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,000
Speaker 10: to be a little bit different on defense because they

1157
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:45,840
Speaker 10: got some guys who can take it to the house. Now,

1158
00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:50,480
Speaker 10: the quarterback, I mean, he's not the scrambler, but if

1159
00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:52,800
Speaker 10: we can have the pass rush like we had last week,

1160
00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:55,280
Speaker 10: you know, he's.

1161
00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:57,720
Speaker 3: Not justin field. He's not going to get he's limited.

1162
00:58:57,800 --> 00:58:59,000
Speaker 3: He's limited to what he can do.

1163
00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:01,120
Speaker 10: So if I can have, hey, if I can have

1164
00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:03,600
Speaker 10: another game where the defense dominates, I would love to

1165
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:05,120
Speaker 10: do that because the only way that he's going to

1166
00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:08,120
Speaker 10: get the ball out is probably on short passes. Really,

1167
00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 10: he's not gonna be and if we have that same

1168
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:12,840
Speaker 10: pass for us, like I was just happy to see Bosom,

1169
00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:15,520
Speaker 10: you know, just just create.

1170
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 4: I mean, we.

1171
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:19,880
Speaker 10: You were looking for somebody to step up, and he

1172
00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:23,160
Speaker 10: stepped up. And really, the defense so yeah, I put

1173
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:26,080
Speaker 10: this all like what can the defense do to limit

1174
00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:28,360
Speaker 10: Miami and what they're what they want to do, which

1175
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:31,080
Speaker 10: is get the ball downfield with Tariq Hill.

1176
00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:34,320
Speaker 1: And the Bill's defense has always been pretty really good

1177
00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:38,000
Speaker 1: at making two a Paddock pat the ball. He comes back,

1178
00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:39,720
Speaker 1: he looks for that first read and he can't get it.

1179
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:42,880
Speaker 1: He's not there. They should about taking that away and

1180
00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:46,080
Speaker 1: half in him, you know, then given that extra beat

1181
00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:48,320
Speaker 1: for the defensive line to get there, maybe make him

1182
00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:52,360
Speaker 1: shuffle around or take him off his spot, or have

1183
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:54,280
Speaker 1: to back out of or do something else. But they've

1184
00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:57,960
Speaker 1: they've been really good at getting him to pat the

1185
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:02,080
Speaker 1: football on his first riad. If they can continue to

1186
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:05,800
Speaker 1: do that, you know, it's it will be a long

1187
01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:09,200
Speaker 1: day for him. A Chan is as good an offensive

1188
01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:11,360
Speaker 1: player as they've got right now. He's he's as good

1189
01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:13,600
Speaker 1: in the run game as Tyreek can be in the

1190
01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:18,600
Speaker 1: passing game. Tyreek, Yeah, he's he's gotta be just rolling's

1191
01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:22,640
Speaker 1: eyes because it's like it's like being a quarterback and

1192
01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:24,880
Speaker 1: you don't have anybody snappy the ball. Tyreek is the

1193
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:26,760
Speaker 1: quarterback and he has got nobody give them the ball.

1194
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:28,400
Speaker 1: He can't go out there he can run and get

1195
01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:31,440
Speaker 1: open all day and they're having trouble finding. That's got

1196
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,240
Speaker 1: to be an incredibly frustrating atmosphere over there right now.

1197
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:35,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, it has to be.

1198
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:39,000
Speaker 10: And I mean this wasn't just this year coming into it.

1199
01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:41,800
Speaker 10: I think it's been the last couple of years, you know,

1200
01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:45,040
Speaker 10: for this franchise. And I think when you look at

1201
01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:48,440
Speaker 10: the overall picture of them, I mean mcdanie's probably on

1202
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:49,000
Speaker 10: a hot seat.

1203
01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:50,640
Speaker 3: He's probably on the.

1204
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:53,440
Speaker 2: Hot seat right if they don't look good tonight, right

1205
01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:55,120
Speaker 2: the Yeah, it's gonna get loud.

1206
01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:56,200
Speaker 3: It's gonna get loud.

1207
01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 1: It's gonna get it's gonna be the conversation around the team.

1208
01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:02,560
Speaker 3: Around team in I think around the National Football League too. Really,

1209
01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:04,600
Speaker 3: what what do you.

1210
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:07,280
Speaker 2: Think of a chan as a pass receiver? Because that's

1211
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:09,959
Speaker 2: where he really scares me. I mean among running backs

1212
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:12,680
Speaker 2: in the league. Last year he led the league among

1213
01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:17,200
Speaker 2: running backs in receptions seventy eight and receiving yards five

1214
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:20,040
Speaker 2: hundred and ninety two, and he had six receptions for touchdowns.

1215
01:01:20,320 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 2: I mean, he is he he worries me more out

1216
01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 2: in space space than he does coming out of the backfield.

1217
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:28,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he can I mean he can go

1218
01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:29,520
Speaker 3: from house to house.

1219
01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:32,840
Speaker 10: I mean he's four to three to two four three two, yeah,

1220
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:35,840
Speaker 10: and so I mean, who's going to match up with

1221
01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:37,280
Speaker 10: him to real?

1222
01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:37,640
Speaker 4: But not.

1223
01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:42,640
Speaker 3: Are is it a dB? I have no idea.

1224
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:45,040
Speaker 10: I mean, I mean, but that's the situation that you

1225
01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:49,000
Speaker 10: put your defense in with guys that have speed like this,

1226
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:51,560
Speaker 10: and they got a bunch of burners on on their

1227
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:55,800
Speaker 10: offensive side. So yeah, just make sure at first he

1228
01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:58,760
Speaker 10: don't get the run. I mean that's I know, he

1229
01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:00,360
Speaker 10: can catch up all out of the backfield or whatever,

1230
01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:02,720
Speaker 10: but let's not let them have any long runs coming

1231
01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:05,880
Speaker 10: from the backfield running the football, and I think that

1232
01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:10,680
Speaker 10: would be more of a okay, we're pounding you guys

1233
01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:14,280
Speaker 10: right now with this guy, then more of okay, well

1234
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:17,160
Speaker 10: might have four seconds to throw it to him. I

1235
01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:19,040
Speaker 10: think the running game is the key to.

1236
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:22,080
Speaker 1: All of it's. I think it's a crucial element to

1237
01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:24,880
Speaker 1: their offense because it's a guy who lines up right

1238
01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:27,560
Speaker 1: with two in the backfield, so he's always in a

1239
01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:30,280
Speaker 1: spot where two A can get him the ball. If

1240
01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:32,640
Speaker 1: you get Tyreek outside the numbers and he's running the

1241
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:36,200
Speaker 1: deep comeback, two has to throw the ball way before

1242
01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:38,680
Speaker 1: any of it happens, right. I mean, he just can't

1243
01:02:38,720 --> 01:02:43,040
Speaker 1: make that throw late in the down. A Chan is

1244
01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:46,360
Speaker 1: like what most quarterbacks have their tight ends doing. It's

1245
01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:50,920
Speaker 1: their safety valve and dolphins because of the way defenses

1246
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:56,919
Speaker 1: see their skill people in Waddle and Tyreek, they're taking

1247
01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:59,360
Speaker 1: their guard in the middle of the field. They're making

1248
01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:01,720
Speaker 1: you throw away out to the edges, which leaves the

1249
01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:02,720
Speaker 1: running backs as.

1250
01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:05,560
Speaker 3: The go to. I just saw him the stat there.

1251
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:08,880
Speaker 10: In his last four games against the Bills, Evan over

1252
01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:10,880
Speaker 10: one hundred yards total.

1253
01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:14,000
Speaker 2: He's got six touchdowns in four games four games.

1254
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 3: To me, he's their only hope.

1255
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,520
Speaker 1: He's the guy that has to be the centerpiece for it,

1256
01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:22,320
Speaker 1: both in the run and the past. They got to

1257
01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:24,280
Speaker 1: get him the ball in some space.

1258
01:03:24,520 --> 01:03:26,360
Speaker 2: Because when he gets out there, I mean he doesn't

1259
01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:30,000
Speaker 2: even look like he's straining, and people are just disappearing.

1260
01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:31,200
Speaker 2: I mean, he's leaving people.

1261
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:34,640
Speaker 1: And that's the problem though too, because as soon as

1262
01:03:34,680 --> 01:03:36,920
Speaker 1: you do that, then ty then Tyreek goes. You know,

1263
01:03:37,040 --> 01:03:39,840
Speaker 1: you got to still keep the lid on Tyreek and

1264
01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:42,080
Speaker 1: Jalen Waddle. I mean, you have to do that that

1265
01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 1: starts there and let the front seven worry about a

1266
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:47,160
Speaker 1: Chan and then if he pops out in the running

1267
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,000
Speaker 1: back and they take the you know, you got to

1268
01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:51,000
Speaker 1: him him in. But it still has to start on

1269
01:03:51,040 --> 01:03:55,040
Speaker 1: the outside with Waddle and Tyreek because you know, even

1270
01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:57,320
Speaker 1: if it comes back and throws a rainbow ball, I mean,

1271
01:03:57,360 --> 01:03:58,440
Speaker 1: those guys can run under it.

1272
01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:02,920
Speaker 3: So defensive key yeah. I think the defense isn't key

1273
01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:03,720
Speaker 3: it right obviously.

1274
01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:06,000
Speaker 1: I mean it sounds simple to save it. If they

1275
01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:08,320
Speaker 1: can't score, they ain't gonna stay yeah, I mean, come on,

1276
01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:09,680
Speaker 1: I mean you got to think the Bills are gonna

1277
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:10,320
Speaker 1: put points up.

1278
01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 10: I mean, if Jay can pull up the stats to

1279
01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:17,160
Speaker 10: the last eight games for Josh versus Miami, yeah, they

1280
01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:18,360
Speaker 10: gotta keep you know, you can't.

1281
01:04:18,640 --> 01:04:20,720
Speaker 3: They gotta keep up, you know. And the only time

1282
01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:23,640
Speaker 3: that they really did that toour wasn't even a quarterback.

1283
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:27,200
Speaker 10: Was that scholar Thompson guy in the playoffs in the

1284
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:29,880
Speaker 10: playoffs and I was, you know, I'm like, let's rather

1285
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:30,920
Speaker 10: have tour, right.

1286
01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:32,600
Speaker 2: So I'll give you the number because I have it.

1287
01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:38,200
Speaker 2: U At home against Miami with Josh Allen in the lineup,

1288
01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:42,400
Speaker 2: the Bills have averaged thirty eight points again average.

1289
01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:45,360
Speaker 1: You gotta keep up, you gotta keep up. I mean,

1290
01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:50,000
Speaker 1: that's it's just the way they remember they hung the

1291
01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:52,200
Speaker 1: forty eight on him when the week after the Miami

1292
01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:56,640
Speaker 1: Dolphins scored seventy on the yes there and the Bills

1293
01:04:56,720 --> 01:05:02,760
Speaker 1: hung forty eight on him. And it's a problem from

1294
01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 1: a lot of teams.

1295
01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:05,840
Speaker 10: As much as we're talking about, particularly in this building,

1296
01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:08,520
Speaker 10: as much as we talk about like what we have

1297
01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:11,600
Speaker 10: to do to stop them, they haven't stopped us, right,

1298
01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:13,160
Speaker 10: they have not stopped us.

1299
01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:15,760
Speaker 3: And I think it's going to continue tonight too.

1300
01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:18,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, that you gotta feel like the Bills have a

1301
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:22,000
Speaker 1: big engine under the hood, offensively right, and you you

1302
01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:23,960
Speaker 1: gotta find a way to keep.

1303
01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:25,960
Speaker 3: Up and look telling you what what?

1304
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:30,120
Speaker 10: What's the other also important too is that Thursday night

1305
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:33,520
Speaker 10: you get a chance to rest. You don't want to

1306
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:35,440
Speaker 10: You don't want to go You don't want to go

1307
01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:38,440
Speaker 10: into that rest. Here's my he you want to go

1308
01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:40,959
Speaker 10: into that rest period that you're going.

1309
01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:42,160
Speaker 3: To have now with a w.

1310
01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:45,240
Speaker 1: So let's just say that that McDermott senses they're a

1311
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:47,240
Speaker 1: little loose and they're thinking, Okay, we're gonna roll out

1312
01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:49,400
Speaker 1: there and roll the Miami Dolphins. And you don't like it.

1313
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:52,120
Speaker 1: As a head coach, you're like, hell, listen, let's concentrate here.

1314
01:05:52,600 --> 01:05:56,560
Speaker 1: It's a division game. Let's go. So my thought would be, okay, listen, guys,

1315
01:05:56,640 --> 01:06:01,640
Speaker 1: if you listen, you beat these guys by four possessions,

1316
01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:04,560
Speaker 1: I'll get you can come back to work Monday. Yeah,

1317
01:06:05,880 --> 01:06:08,760
Speaker 1: you take Friday, Saturday, Sunday. I'll just leave and I'll.

1318
01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:10,680
Speaker 3: See you guys lead flights tonight.

1319
01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:18,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'll say that, yeah, there, am right, guys,

1320
01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:20,040
Speaker 1: be let's go.

1321
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:22,720
Speaker 3: Let's got that would turn it up.

1322
01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:25,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if they will. Coach is not gonna

1323
01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 1: come out here and say, hey, the Dolphins stick. If

1324
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:30,800
Speaker 1: you beat him by twenty five, you have three days off.

1325
01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:31,560
Speaker 4: We want to do that.

1326
01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:35,360
Speaker 1: But it would work because there is a day even

1327
01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:39,200
Speaker 1: you know how much the game hurts, and it's gonna

1328
01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:40,920
Speaker 1: hurt the Dolphins, is gonna hurt the Bill Sign. It's

1329
01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:44,760
Speaker 1: a physical game. And you know, if you get any

1330
01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:47,080
Speaker 1: reason to think, okay, you know what, these guys are

1331
01:06:47,120 --> 01:06:48,640
Speaker 1: not going to play that well against us. We're in

1332
01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:50,640
Speaker 1: our building at home. Let's just I'm gonna take a

1333
01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:53,880
Speaker 1: breath here, and it shows in practice and all that.

1334
01:06:54,160 --> 01:06:57,520
Speaker 10: I don't think at that point now that will not

1335
01:06:57,640 --> 01:07:03,680
Speaker 10: be allowed. But I also think too, it's a it's

1336
01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:06,400
Speaker 10: a veteran type of group over there that will not

1337
01:07:06,680 --> 01:07:10,040
Speaker 10: allowed that to have that's got to be from It

1338
01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:10,400
Speaker 10: has to.

1339
01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:11,160
Speaker 3: Be come from the player.

1340
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:13,200
Speaker 1: Coach is always savior coach from mar or Sea.

1341
01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:14,000
Speaker 4: It has to be.

1342
01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:15,880
Speaker 3: Like that.

1343
01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:18,520
Speaker 1: It's got to be Josh, gotta be James, jach gotta

1344
01:07:18,560 --> 01:07:20,640
Speaker 1: be you know, Terrell dar Yeah.

1345
01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:21,520
Speaker 3: Gotta Johnson.

1346
01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:24,240
Speaker 10: If even a guy like Jordan Poor who's here on

1347
01:07:24,360 --> 01:07:26,760
Speaker 10: the practice, him being a guy like this is what

1348
01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:27,360
Speaker 10: we need.

1349
01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:28,960
Speaker 1: You got to do that. You got to do that, Yeah,

1350
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:32,120
Speaker 1: because I think that's that's something.

1351
01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:33,600
Speaker 3: It's a thing.

1352
01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:36,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, because they hear the conversations come out of

1353
01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:39,760
Speaker 1: Miami and Mike McDaniel already on the hot seat and

1354
01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:42,720
Speaker 1: they they they lost thirty that they were down thirty

1355
01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:47,160
Speaker 1: to nothing in Indianapolis against Daniel Jones. It's not good,

1356
01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,959
Speaker 1: so they so you've got to fight against the urge,

1357
01:07:52,080 --> 01:07:54,800
Speaker 1: just like just stop and take a breath, you know,

1358
01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,960
Speaker 1: And you can't know, you can't how do you handle

1359
01:07:58,000 --> 01:07:58,920
Speaker 1: that if you're a coach.

1360
01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:06,960
Speaker 3: Man, It's it's tough because it's it's something.

1361
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:14,000
Speaker 1: It rarely happens, right, because there's always something about this

1362
01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:15,200
Speaker 1: other team is like, man, I don't know.

1363
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:17,519
Speaker 10: We gotta get, you know, yeah, we gotta Yeah, I

1364
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:21,960
Speaker 10: just forget when you look at our side mcdermot's.

1365
01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,200
Speaker 1: I think they don't because now they've got the you

1366
01:08:24,280 --> 01:08:26,799
Speaker 1: got the pile of history behind you with your quarterback

1367
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:29,519
Speaker 1: against their franchise, you got all and you're at home,

1368
01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:31,360
Speaker 1: and you got all this stuff piled on top of

1369
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:32,840
Speaker 1: it that says they ain't got no chance. They ain't

1370
01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:34,840
Speaker 1: got no chance, they ain't got no chance. It's hard

1371
01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:36,400
Speaker 1: to fight against that mentality.

1372
01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:39,040
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think with the players that they have over there,

1373
01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:41,280
Speaker 10: that we have here now, it ain't that hard to

1374
01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:42,120
Speaker 10: fight that mentality.

1375
01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:43,240
Speaker 3: I think they know what to do.

1376
01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:47,000
Speaker 1: I really hard.

1377
01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 3: I just I know it's hard.

1378
01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:49,360
Speaker 1: I know it is hard.

1379
01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:52,680
Speaker 10: But I think the player's mindset of hey we're two

1380
01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:56,760
Speaker 10: and oh we want to be three, and oh MC

1381
01:08:56,960 --> 01:09:00,640
Speaker 10: division opponent, so that'll put us two games up. I

1382
01:09:00,680 --> 01:09:02,439
Speaker 10: think all those things come into play and I don't

1383
01:09:02,479 --> 01:09:04,600
Speaker 10: think that. I don't think these veteran players will let

1384
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:07,200
Speaker 10: that happen with the Bills. I just don't want one

1385
01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:10,599
Speaker 10: l I think they are so confident right now as

1386
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:16,000
Speaker 10: a football team that league probably in trouble the league.

1387
01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:19,160
Speaker 1: They're playing really confident right now.

1388
01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:23,280
Speaker 2: One last number to uh share with you theuram that

1389
01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:26,200
Speaker 2: I know you will like. The Bills currently lead the

1390
01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:33,000
Speaker 2: NFL with six rushing touchdowns through two games. Shockingly, we

1391
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:35,720
Speaker 2: did not get a touchdown from Josh in the game

1392
01:09:35,760 --> 01:09:37,639
Speaker 2: at all. Rushing, passing, receiving.

1393
01:09:37,840 --> 01:09:41,160
Speaker 3: Nothing supposed to be the MVP.

1394
01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:44,280
Speaker 2: But you know, red zone wise, they get down there

1395
01:09:44,360 --> 01:09:46,559
Speaker 2: and it's not just Josh Allen anymore. I mean they're

1396
01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:48,840
Speaker 2: handing it off to James, they're giving it to other people,

1397
01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:51,760
Speaker 2: taking hits off of Josh's body. These are all good

1398
01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:54,160
Speaker 2: things because we know the season is a marathon, got

1399
01:09:54,240 --> 01:09:54,760
Speaker 2: a sprint And.

1400
01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:58,120
Speaker 10: Well, I was saying to somebody else the other day about,

1401
01:09:58,479 --> 01:10:00,160
Speaker 10: you know, been talking a lot of talk about the

1402
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:03,840
Speaker 10: push push and all this stuff down at the one

1403
01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:08,680
Speaker 10: yard line. What it really comes down to, it's can

1404
01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:12,479
Speaker 10: I get one yard from my running back while he's

1405
01:10:12,520 --> 01:10:16,400
Speaker 10: five yards deep? All that other stuff, But it's on

1406
01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:19,680
Speaker 10: the offensive lineman, because that's your job, right So you

1407
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:22,040
Speaker 10: mean to tell me I got to use my quarterback

1408
01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:25,719
Speaker 10: to take hits to get one yard as an offensive lineman,

1409
01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:28,280
Speaker 10: I'm thinking, No, this is what I'm built for. If

1410
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:30,040
Speaker 10: I can't get one yard, I probably don't even need

1411
01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:32,000
Speaker 10: to be here right right, And the defense is on

1412
01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:34,880
Speaker 10: the other sand and saying I can stop these guys

1413
01:10:34,920 --> 01:10:38,120
Speaker 10: from getting one yard. One yard, no one what's coming,

1414
01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:42,240
Speaker 10: knowing what's coming, Yeah, exactly. So the mentality, Yeah, I

1415
01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:43,760
Speaker 10: love what they're doing.

1416
01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:44,640
Speaker 3: They're confident that.

1417
01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:47,840
Speaker 10: Like I just said, they're confident anywhere on the football field,

1418
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:49,960
Speaker 10: whether they hand it off or Josh running, they can

1419
01:10:50,040 --> 01:10:50,479
Speaker 10: get it done.

1420
01:10:50,720 --> 01:10:54,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, Thurm, thanks for stopping in. Enjoy the game tonight,

1421

Speaker 2: Eight h three zero five fifty one eight eight five

1428
01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:15,960
Speaker 2: fifty two five fifty It's one Bills Live presented by

1429
01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:35,479
Speaker 2: Kalida Health. It's Buffalo Bills Radio time. Now for excuse oh,

1430
01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:38,639
Speaker 2: we got get Gabe's collision first, Steve and jumped the gun.

1431
01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:43,040
Speaker 2: Gabe's collision the official Auto Collision Repair Center of the

1432
01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:46,280
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills get back in the game. And this one's

1433
01:11:46,320 --> 01:11:48,200
Speaker 2: pretty straightforward. We kind of covered it a little bit

1434
01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:52,080
Speaker 2: with Thurman. It's Dolphins running back Devon h Chan versus

1435
01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:54,880
Speaker 2: the Bill's defense. I think it's safe to say that

1436
01:11:55,320 --> 01:11:59,040
Speaker 2: with all the exploits of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle,

1437
01:11:59,479 --> 01:12:03,479
Speaker 2: Devana is the catalyst for the success or failure of

1438
01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:06,439
Speaker 2: this offense in most weeks. If they get him going,

1439
01:12:06,680 --> 01:12:10,439
Speaker 2: it opens everything else up for them. So neutralizing him

1440
01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:14,639
Speaker 2: goes a long way in slowing down what the Dolphins

1441
01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:16,960
Speaker 2: do offensively and getting ahead of them on the scoreboard.

1442
01:12:18,720 --> 01:12:22,360
Speaker 1: Yes, I agree with that completely. He's the key for them.

1443
01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:25,519
Speaker 1: He's got to play a prominent row offensively, and their

1444
01:12:25,640 --> 01:12:29,400
Speaker 1: offense has got to stay on the field. In my opinion,

1445
01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:33,200
Speaker 1: they've got to move the chains. They need some ten

1446
01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:36,679
Speaker 1: play twelve plays. Unless they go score touchdown in one play,

1447
01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:39,559
Speaker 1: that's fine, but you've you're gonna have to keep up

1448
01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:42,360
Speaker 1: with this offense. I think of the Bills, and he's

1449
01:12:42,400 --> 01:12:43,400
Speaker 1: a cog that can do it.

1450
01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:47,960
Speaker 2: Now. I remember the Bills in the first game down

1451
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:52,640
Speaker 2: in Miami being hyper aware of a Chan in the

1452
01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:56,640
Speaker 2: passing game out in space outside the numbers, right at

1453
01:12:56,680 --> 01:13:00,400
Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage, and I remember the defenders leading

1454
01:13:00,479 --> 01:13:03,920
Speaker 2: into that game saying, we just have to do sound

1455
01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:08,080
Speaker 2: fundamental tackling out in space, because if they get away

1456
01:13:08,120 --> 01:13:11,519
Speaker 2: from the initial tackler, that's when you have a problem,

1457
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:15,240
Speaker 2: because that's when the speed truly becomes dangerous. Whether it's

1458
01:13:15,320 --> 01:13:17,960
Speaker 2: a Chan or anybody else that can fly on that roster,

1459
01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:22,120
Speaker 2: you can't have your first tackler miss he's and if

1460
01:13:22,160 --> 01:13:24,840
Speaker 2: he doesn't make a sound fundamental tackle, he at least

1461
01:13:24,920 --> 01:13:26,679
Speaker 2: has to hang on until help arrives.

1462
01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:30,800
Speaker 1: The best defenses in the league, it's first guy to

1463
01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:33,920
Speaker 1: the ball makes the tackle Number one defense. It will

1464
01:13:33,920 --> 01:13:36,240
Speaker 1: always be the case because you never get extra yards,

1465
01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:40,000
Speaker 1: and defenses are designed not to have six guys make

1466
01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:43,000
Speaker 1: a tackle. It's designed to have one guy there where

1467
01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:45,479
Speaker 1: the ball is to make the tackle, and then they

1468
01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:48,200
Speaker 1: play teams rally to the ball, and then you guys

1469
01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:50,240
Speaker 1: pile on and that kind of thing and you get help.

1470
01:13:51,360 --> 01:13:53,280
Speaker 1: But if the first guy to the ball makes the tackle,

1471
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:56,519
Speaker 1: your defense is going to be extremely good. A Chan

1472
01:13:56,680 --> 01:13:59,200
Speaker 1: is a guy that it's hard to have. The first

1473
01:13:59,240 --> 01:14:02,519
Speaker 1: guy to make the tackle is he's elusive and he's fast,

1474
01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:05,920
Speaker 1: and you've got to hem him in. It's yeah. That

1475
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:08,920
Speaker 1: is the key matchup for the Buffalo Bills tonight.

1476

1491
01:15:07,320 --> 01:15:09,160
Speaker 2: were lucky enough to take?

1492
01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:15,760
Speaker 1: Uh, I'll say guy's name was. I didn't know this

1493
01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:19,880
Speaker 1: until Chris Hayes was his name. Defensive back New York

1494
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:25,080
Speaker 1: Football Jets. Nineteen ninety seven. We were playing in the Meadowlands.

1495
01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:27,439
Speaker 1: Bill Parcells was coaching the Jets. It was his first

1496
01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:29,960
Speaker 1: year as coach of the Jets, my final year in

1497
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:33,840
Speaker 1: the National Football League. And I was catching a punt

1498
01:15:34,360 --> 01:15:36,599
Speaker 1: and just as I caught it, I was running forward

1499
01:15:36,640 --> 01:15:38,280
Speaker 1: to get it because it wasn't a very good punt.

1500
01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:41,519
Speaker 1: I caught it, took about one step, and Chris Hayes

1501
01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:44,160
Speaker 1: was there to meet me. Oh, we've got footage of it,

1502
01:15:44,600 --> 01:15:47,519
Speaker 1: so here here we go. I catch it, bang, and

1503
01:15:47,640 --> 01:15:49,360
Speaker 1: I got lit up and I stood up. And as

1504
01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:51,479
Speaker 1: I stood up, there we were. We were looking right.

1505
01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:55,000
Speaker 1: I was face to face with him. I got up

1506
01:15:55,000 --> 01:15:56,320
Speaker 1: and looked at my I was like, I said, his

1507
01:15:56,439 --> 01:16:01,200
Speaker 1: nice hit. Then the next time we punt, this is

1508
01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:03,200
Speaker 1: what legget him got what get him go? Then I

1509
01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:05,320
Speaker 1: busted one lose and it looked like I might go,

1510
01:16:05,520 --> 01:16:08,639
Speaker 1: and then somebody snagged me, but uh oh, it was him.

1511
01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:12,960
Speaker 1: Chris Hayes tackled me again. The next time. He had

1512
01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:15,599
Speaker 1: to horse collar me after a thirty seven or forty

1513
01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:17,479
Speaker 1: seven yard punt return, so he got me on the

1514
01:16:17,520 --> 01:16:19,599
Speaker 1: first one, and then I caught the next one almost

1515
01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:20,400
Speaker 1: went the distance.

1516
01:16:20,560 --> 01:16:23,040
Speaker 2: Can we uh, do we have audio of that? Guys,

1517
01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:25,720
Speaker 2: I'd like to have full sound up for this. If

1518
01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:28,280
Speaker 2: we're gonna see this. Punt return by Steve.

1519
01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:32,280
Speaker 1: Pespecial, team's a big backer. Bots happened in the first

1520
01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:34,320
Speaker 1: half of the second half was Wilder. I took a

1521
01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:35,720
Speaker 1: team Tisker at Tasker.

1522
01:16:35,479 --> 01:16:37,679
Speaker 3: Get down by Chris Purple Hayes.

1523
01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:39,400
Speaker 4: Well, I returned kicks in Collins.

1524
01:16:39,439 --> 01:16:41,360
Speaker 3: A lot of times you catch the ball, you're looking up.

1525
01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:43,160
Speaker 3: You don't have a chance to see the coverage guy.

1526
01:16:43,240 --> 01:16:44,240
Speaker 3: That's what happens right here.

1527
01:16:44,439 --> 01:16:45,800
Speaker 1: So you think you're not cash red at the game?

1528
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:48,439
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Next return, gets the block from

1529
01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:49,479
Speaker 1: Mark Pike and.

1530
01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:52,720
Speaker 9: Look at Tisker, a test pluck, get it go.

1531
01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:56,439
Speaker 1: Forty seven yards, but a hawk before I laid up,

1532
01:16:56,479 --> 01:16:57,439
Speaker 1: Hayes pulls him down.

1533
01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:00,280
Speaker 2: Oh look at that a little Chris Irman.

1534
01:17:00,360 --> 01:17:03,000
Speaker 1: Actually back in the day, I was, I told Jay.

1535
01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:06,840
Speaker 1: When Jay they said hey about this question for you know,

1536
01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:09,040
Speaker 1: excuse me, I said, that's fine. I said, here's the

1537
01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:10,320
Speaker 1: guy that did it. I don't know if you have

1538
01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:12,280
Speaker 1: footage of it and not only have footage. I mean

1539
01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:14,600
Speaker 1: Chris Burble go.

1540
01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:18,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, nobody did it like Boomer on Sunday nights after

1541
01:17:18,680 --> 01:17:20,200
Speaker 2: the slate of games, even if.

1542
01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:22,840
Speaker 1: For guys like me of that era, and I'm sure

1543
01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:24,720
Speaker 1: there's some Bills fans out there that remember this. You

1544
01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:27,840
Speaker 1: you turn that music on and you can.

1545
01:17:29,720 --> 01:17:29,960
Speaker 4: Hear it.

1546
01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:33,479
Speaker 1: Let's go. It's like the Monday night football theme and

1547
01:17:33,960 --> 01:17:36,439
Speaker 1: it's right up there with everything the highlight music that

1548
01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:39,599
Speaker 1: went behind all those great teams he had. That's such fun.

1549
01:17:39,960 --> 01:17:43,320
Speaker 2: So let me ask you this as players playing back then,

1550
01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:46,519
Speaker 2: when you know Berman and Tom Jackson are doing those.

1551
01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:51,280
Speaker 2: So if you had a one o'clock game and let's

1552
01:17:51,360 --> 01:17:54,479
Speaker 2: just say the post game hangouts done and you happen

1553
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:56,439
Speaker 2: to be home, whether it's at eight or when they

1554
01:17:56,479 --> 01:17:59,519
Speaker 2: would re rack it at eleven, are you, as.

1555
01:17:59,439 --> 01:18:05,240
Speaker 1: A player, yeah, let's go, especially on a win, even

1556
01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:09,720
Speaker 1: on the loss. You didn't care that, you guys. It's

1557
01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:13,599
Speaker 1: that's why that's why social media is so huge, because

1558
01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:16,080
Speaker 1: they tapped into the fact that if somebody's talking about you,

1559
01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:20,240
Speaker 1: you want to hear what they say. Yeah, right, that's

1560
01:18:20,280 --> 01:18:23,599
Speaker 1: why people engagement form on social media. They want people

1561
01:18:23,680 --> 01:18:25,160
Speaker 1: to talk about them so they can hear what they say.

1562
01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:28,720
Speaker 1: That's it's a human it's a human thing, and they've

1563
01:18:28,760 --> 01:18:31,840
Speaker 1: tapped into it with technology. Back then, we didn't even

1564
01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:34,920
Speaker 1: it was nothing. You didn't have cell phones. So you know,

1565
01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:37,320
Speaker 1: this thing comes on. You got to hear what the

1566
01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:40,720
Speaker 1: national narrative is about your team. Yeah, it was very old.

1567
01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:41,040
Speaker 4: It was.

1568
01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:45,080
Speaker 1: And those you know, infamous or famous gym parties at

1569
01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:48,680
Speaker 1: Gym's house after the games we would be playing a

1570
01:18:48,760 --> 01:18:51,320
Speaker 1: broad the broadcast version of the game. They would he

1571
01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:54,160
Speaker 1: had somebody at the stadium or whoever would record the

1572
01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:57,920
Speaker 1: game on VHS and Jim would plug it in and

1573
01:18:58,040 --> 01:19:00,320
Speaker 1: it was playing at the party then that that night

1574
01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:04,840
Speaker 1: for a one o'clock game. So yeah, we we're human

1575
01:19:04,920 --> 01:19:07,120
Speaker 1: beings first. So you if people are talking about you

1576
01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:09,880
Speaker 1: and your team, you need to hear it.

1577
01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:10,320
Speaker 4: Ok.

1578
01:19:10,520 --> 01:19:13,160
Speaker 2: Sure, let's get back to the phones. At eight o

1579
01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:16,080
Speaker 2: three oh five fifty one eight five fifty two five

1580
01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:18,559
Speaker 2: fifty got open lines for you. How do you see

1581
01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:22,120
Speaker 2: tonight's game playing out? We go to Michael in the

1582
01:19:22,240 --> 01:19:23,479
Speaker 2: fruit Belt. What's up, Michael?

1583
01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:25,240
Speaker 4: Hey, how you doing brouh?

1584
01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:26,040
Speaker 2: Good?

1585
01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:29,800
Speaker 4: Well, this time I see the game. You know, we

1586
01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:32,599
Speaker 4: got history with Miami some way back when I'm old school.

1587
01:19:32,600 --> 01:19:35,439
Speaker 4: I'm seventy two years old, so I remembered him a lot.

1588
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:38,439
Speaker 4: I remember when he whooped us, like what thirteen years

1589
01:19:38,479 --> 01:19:40,680
Speaker 4: in a row before we finally whooped him, tore down

1590
01:19:40,800 --> 01:19:43,800
Speaker 4: goal post and everything. Yeah, so every time we played,

1591
01:19:43,840 --> 01:19:45,600
Speaker 4: I'm looking for a butt whooping. So I know what

1592
01:19:45,680 --> 01:19:47,280
Speaker 4: you say. We don't like the kind of games, but

1593
01:19:47,360 --> 01:19:48,320
Speaker 4: that's what I want tonight.

1594
01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:51,200
Speaker 2: Okay, you want a good old fashioned take him out

1595
01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:53,160
Speaker 2: behind the woodshed and tell him he's boss.

1596
01:19:53,280 --> 01:19:55,080
Speaker 1: Okay, you don't beat him up and leave him for dad.

1597
01:19:55,880 --> 01:19:57,599
Speaker 4: I get it. They took like they took.

1598
01:19:58,160 --> 01:19:58,559
Speaker 1: That's right.

1599
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:02,400
Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough, Michael, thanks for the call. And hear

1600
01:20:02,840 --> 01:20:05,240
Speaker 2: his score that he that he mentioned when he called

1601
01:20:05,360 --> 01:20:07,720
Speaker 2: was fifty two to nineteen fifty two. That's what he's

1602
01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:08,080
Speaker 2: looking for.

1603
01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:11,519
Speaker 1: I have a hard time seeing that that's a lot

1604
01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:11,960
Speaker 1: of points.

1605
01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:13,120
Speaker 2: It is even for this time.

1606
01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:16,040
Speaker 1: Yes, and also when you're I don't know whether they

1607
01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:19,960
Speaker 1: screw score the first nineteen or not either, but it's

1608
01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:23,320
Speaker 1: you get out a certain distance. We saw it last

1609
01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:25,960
Speaker 1: week in the Jets, and the Jets are like dead

1610
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:29,320
Speaker 1: in the water. Offensively, Bills just take their foot off

1611
01:20:29,360 --> 01:20:32,360
Speaker 1: the gas. So I you know, they don't keep piling

1612
01:20:32,439 --> 01:20:34,440
Speaker 1: on the point and it's not like high school.

1613
01:20:34,960 --> 01:20:41,120
Speaker 2: Right, And I think smartly Joe Brady keeps stuff in

1614
01:20:41,200 --> 01:20:43,559
Speaker 2: the back to use in the future. And you also

1615
01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:45,040
Speaker 2: don't want to put it all out on tape the

1616
01:20:45,080 --> 01:20:45,479
Speaker 2: first three.

1617
01:20:45,479 --> 01:20:48,360
Speaker 1: We give him many fertilizer to grow hatred for you

1618
01:20:48,479 --> 01:20:50,320
Speaker 1: for the next matchup this season.

1619
01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:52,080
Speaker 2: Because you do play him again, right, so down in

1620
01:20:52,120 --> 01:20:52,599
Speaker 2: their place.

1621
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you kind of just you know, you beat

1622
01:20:55,280 --> 01:20:58,439
Speaker 1: him and you walk off and easier, easier or harder,

1623
01:20:58,840 --> 01:21:01,160
Speaker 1: whatever it is, take the win and move on. Don't

1624
01:21:01,560 --> 01:21:03,240
Speaker 1: don't stir anything up for the next time.

1625
01:21:03,920 --> 01:21:04,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1626
01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:07,679
Speaker 2: Amen to that. Let's move along to Lee in Buffalo.

1627
01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:08,280
Speaker 2: What's up Lee?

1628
01:21:09,640 --> 01:21:12,439
Speaker 4: How you guys doing good? Good? Yeah?

1629
01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:14,439
Speaker 9: I was just calling, you know, because I know you

1630
01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:17,640
Speaker 9: guys like talking about like your favorite memories of the

1631
01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:21,519
Speaker 9: Bills and Dolphins rivalry and what do I think about

1632
01:21:21,560 --> 01:21:24,200
Speaker 9: the game tonight? I just think Miami is just a

1633
01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:25,559
Speaker 9: big mess right now.

1634
01:21:26,920 --> 01:21:28,400
Speaker 8: But memories.

1635
01:21:28,479 --> 01:21:31,040
Speaker 9: I was at that game when the Bills tore down

1636
01:21:31,120 --> 01:21:35,240
Speaker 9: the goalposts and Steve Yes, I still have your autograph, Jersey,

1637
01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:37,680
Speaker 9: when you were doing the Thermant Thomas show. I am

1638
01:21:37,720 --> 01:21:42,719
Speaker 9: an old man. So, but I just have another comment.

1639
01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:45,280
Speaker 9: Do you think Draymond Green is going to be at

1640
01:21:45,320 --> 01:21:47,680
Speaker 9: the game today because he made a comment saying that

1641
01:21:48,120 --> 01:21:49,439
Speaker 9: Josh Allen was not the guy.

1642
01:21:50,439 --> 01:21:52,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know why he'd be at the game.

1643
01:21:52,400 --> 01:21:53,760
Speaker 1: I doubt that he'll be at the game, but.

1644
01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:56,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's out on the West coast anyway. Yeah, it's

1645
01:21:56,840 --> 01:21:58,400
Speaker 2: a long way to go for a Thursday night.

1646
01:21:58,680 --> 01:22:02,320
Speaker 1: You're gonna get Josh's get that. Remember how polarizing the

1647
01:22:02,400 --> 01:22:04,680
Speaker 1: pick was when we picked Josh. I mean, it took

1648
01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:07,439
Speaker 1: him three or four years to get off it, right,

1649
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:08,040
Speaker 1: It took.

1650
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:10,599
Speaker 2: Him took three years to get off of he throws,

1651
01:22:10,720 --> 01:22:12,240
Speaker 2: he has too many turnovers.

1652
01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:15,080
Speaker 1: Right, all of that, And so it was he's not

1653
01:22:15,200 --> 01:22:18,559
Speaker 1: gonna get those critics off his back until he goes

1654
01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:20,920
Speaker 1: and wins the super Bowl. That's just not He's not

1655
01:22:21,000 --> 01:22:23,839
Speaker 1: gonna be it. You can say that about any quarterback

1656
01:22:23,840 --> 01:22:25,200
Speaker 1: who has never won the Super Bowl. You can say

1657
01:22:25,200 --> 01:22:27,240
Speaker 1: it about Dan Marino, for goodness sake, he's not the guy.

1658
01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:28,800
Speaker 1: He didn't ever want it. You can say it about

1659
01:22:29,320 --> 01:22:31,720
Speaker 1: Jim Kelly, He's not the guy he never wanted you.

1660
01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:34,200
Speaker 1: Fran tar All the Hall of Fame guys, Warren Moon,

1661
01:22:34,640 --> 01:22:39,479
Speaker 1: you go down the list, Dan Fouts, all of those guys,

1662
01:22:41,320 --> 01:22:45,920
Speaker 1: and you can there. You're just subject to that unless

1663
01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:47,320
Speaker 1: you go to and win the Super Bowl. And he

1664
01:22:47,360 --> 01:22:48,960
Speaker 1: got to play well too, you know what I mean.

1665
01:22:49,040 --> 01:22:52,880
Speaker 1: It's not just that. So it's always You're always gonna

1666
01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:54,760
Speaker 1: have critics. It's what you sign up for when you

1667
01:22:54,880 --> 01:22:57,719
Speaker 1: become a professional athlete and you start being on TV

1668
01:22:57,920 --> 01:23:00,479
Speaker 1: every week, whether you're in uniform or not. He kind

1669
01:23:00,479 --> 01:23:04,040
Speaker 1: of sign up for the criticisms and the people jumping

1670
01:23:04,080 --> 01:23:07,080
Speaker 1: off the top rope that you don't even know. So, yeah,

1671
01:23:07,120 --> 01:23:10,200
Speaker 1: don't worry about again. Draymond Green doesn't have anything to

1672
01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:13,479
Speaker 1: say about who wins the Super Bowl this year. He

1673
01:23:13,560 --> 01:23:16,200
Speaker 1: has no effect on it. He certainly doesn't have an

1674
01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:17,759
Speaker 1: effect on the Buffalo quarterback.

1675
01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:22,080
Speaker 2: We move along and go to Mike in Hamburg. What

1676
01:23:22,080 --> 01:23:22,519
Speaker 2: do you got for his?

1677
01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:22,800
Speaker 1: Mike?

1678
01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:25,040
Speaker 2: Hey, guys, how are you doing great?

1679
01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:26,839
Speaker 8: Getting excited?

1680
01:23:28,200 --> 01:23:28,559
Speaker 2: Can tell?

1681
01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:34,000
Speaker 8: Let's talk about the last three games. I wore Coleman's jersey,

1682
01:23:34,960 --> 01:23:39,920
Speaker 8: Ken Hall's jersey, and Spencer brown is this week. I

1683
01:23:40,040 --> 01:23:43,519
Speaker 8: got the Bills winning forty one to thirteen.

1684
01:23:44,320 --> 01:23:47,000
Speaker 6: I agree with you both that the Bills are not

1685
01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:52,160
Speaker 6: going to put their foot on the gas once they've

1686
01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:55,960
Speaker 6: they've pretty much won the game for a couple of reasons.

1687
01:23:56,120 --> 01:23:59,120
Speaker 6: Number one, the players keep them safe and number two,

1688
01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:01,519
Speaker 6: organization has classed.

1689
01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:07,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're right about that. Mike mc coach McDermott

1690
01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:11,400
Speaker 2: is not one to run it up on people because

1691
01:24:11,439 --> 01:24:13,000
Speaker 2: turnabouts fair play in this league.

1692
01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:16,040
Speaker 1: Well, if they're gonna score forty one and the Miami

1693
01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:19,320
Speaker 1: Dolphins are only scoring thirteen, they're not taking their foot

1694
01:24:19,360 --> 01:24:22,080
Speaker 1: off the gas too fast, that's for sure. That's a

1695
01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:25,920
Speaker 1: big that's a big number. Yeah, that's bigger than the

1696
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:26,759
Speaker 1: jet number.

1697
01:24:27,320 --> 01:24:27,600
Speaker 4: It is.

1698
01:24:28,479 --> 01:24:31,880
Speaker 2: You saw Baltimore hang forty one on the Browns last week.

1699
01:24:31,920 --> 01:24:33,280
Speaker 2: They won forty one seventeen.

1700
01:24:34,520 --> 01:24:37,360
Speaker 1: And I get it. Sometimes you score late touchdown. And

1701
01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:40,479
Speaker 1: it's always been my philosophy. And I've never coached, and

1702
01:24:40,479 --> 01:24:42,160
Speaker 1: I've never even called plays, so I don't know, but

1703
01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:44,839
Speaker 1: I always thought like, if you're gonna, like, for instance,

1704
01:24:45,240 --> 01:24:47,960
Speaker 1: Mitch Trubisky gets in this game like he did last week,

1705
01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:51,880
Speaker 1: and you've got Ty Johnson carrying the ball or Ray

1706
01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:54,360
Speaker 1: Davis carrying the ball, and you got your offensive line,

1707
01:24:54,439 --> 01:24:58,240
Speaker 1: you got Van Pran Granger playing center. Everybody's in the game.

1708
01:24:59,800 --> 01:25:01,640
Speaker 1: If I'm a coaching step, I give those guys what

1709
01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:02,320
Speaker 1: they need to win.

1710
01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:04,559
Speaker 2: You're not telling them not to score either.

1711
01:25:05,040 --> 01:25:07,800
Speaker 1: I don't call a dive play twenty five times. I'd

1712
01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:10,680
Speaker 1: let them play. I let them play, give them, give

1713
01:25:10,720 --> 01:25:13,320
Speaker 1: them what it takes for them to be successful, because

1714
01:25:13,320 --> 01:25:14,880
Speaker 1: it's hard to go in there and block the same

1715
01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:17,640
Speaker 1: play when they know it's coming, you know. So I

1716
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:20,720
Speaker 1: I've always been a big because I was one of

1717
01:25:20,760 --> 01:25:24,439
Speaker 1: those guys that came off the bench. But let them,

1718
01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:28,280
Speaker 1: let them play, call a pass, play, call a game.

1719
01:25:28,720 --> 01:25:31,120
Speaker 1: Let let your backups play. So in that case, if

1720
01:25:31,160 --> 01:25:32,519
Speaker 1: you go in there and you do that and they

1721
01:25:32,640 --> 01:25:35,679
Speaker 1: keep scoring, that's different. Hey, listen, I got my backups

1722
01:25:35,720 --> 01:25:39,360
Speaker 1: in play play us. I'm not. I don't believe in

1723
01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:42,680
Speaker 1: calling off the dogs when you got your backups in

1724
01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:43,040
Speaker 1: the game.

1725
01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:46,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you can't stop our backups, the problem does

1726
01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:48,280
Speaker 2: not lie with it's it's not me.

1727
01:25:48,960 --> 01:25:49,400
Speaker 1: It's not me.

1728
01:25:49,720 --> 01:25:49,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1729
01:25:50,240 --> 01:25:52,360
Speaker 1: So that's that's my philosophy. I don't know if anybody

1730
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:55,040
Speaker 1: and Bales feels that way, but that seemed to make

1731
01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:58,200
Speaker 1: sense to me because I feel like that's a huge

1732
01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:00,160
Speaker 1: reward for guys at the bottom of the Ross are

1733
01:26:00,160 --> 01:26:02,160
Speaker 1: getting in there and actually letting them play instead of

1734
01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:06,760
Speaker 1: going in there kneeling down. So that's I hope they

1735
01:26:06,840 --> 01:26:07,040
Speaker 1: do that.

1736
01:26:07,560 --> 01:26:11,080
Speaker 2: I like that break time for us. One final segment

1737
01:26:11,160 --> 01:26:12,519
Speaker 2: to go. We'll see if we can squeeze in a

1738
01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:16,519
Speaker 2: phone call. We also have our vision to victory. It's

1739
01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:18,639
Speaker 2: coming your way next here on one Bills Live presented

1740
01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:36,400
Speaker 2: by Collide Health. It's Buffalo Bills Radio Vision to Victory,

1741
01:26:36,640 --> 01:26:39,519
Speaker 2: presented by Atwall eye Care, the official eye care provider

1742
01:26:39,600 --> 01:26:43,320
Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills. And I don't know, Steve. For some reason,

1743
01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:46,639
Speaker 2: I expect the Bills to come out and utilize ball

1744
01:26:46,800 --> 01:26:50,040
Speaker 2: control here and play action off of it to kind

1745
01:26:50,040 --> 01:26:53,679
Speaker 2: of set the tone in this game. The Dolphins really

1746
01:26:53,800 --> 01:26:58,040
Speaker 2: have been unable to stop anybody worth their salt defensively,

1747
01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:00,680
Speaker 2: so I think they're just gonna run it right at

1748
01:27:00,760 --> 01:27:02,840
Speaker 2: him and see how they fare in the early going here,

1749
01:27:02,920 --> 01:27:05,679
Speaker 2: and then mix play action in off of that, try

1750
01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:09,439
Speaker 2: to get some chunk plays. I would get on the

1751
01:27:09,479 --> 01:27:10,599
Speaker 2: board early and take it from there.

1752
01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:13,320
Speaker 1: I agree with that. I think they're I think the

1753
01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:17,360
Speaker 1: way that Miami wins this game is with turnovers, so

1754
01:27:17,439 --> 01:27:19,080
Speaker 1: I think the Bills will not put the ball at

1755
01:27:19,160 --> 01:27:21,800
Speaker 1: risk unless they are forced to. They get into if like,

1756
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:23,479
Speaker 1: if they try and come out, they're gonna pound it

1757
01:27:23,520 --> 01:27:25,200
Speaker 1: at them. And Miami gets a couple of stops on

1758
01:27:25,280 --> 01:27:27,400
Speaker 1: first and second down and it's third and nine, third

1759
01:27:27,439 --> 01:27:30,040
Speaker 1: and ten, third and eleven or whatever, then yeah, okay,

1760
01:27:30,120 --> 01:27:33,479
Speaker 1: they'll they'll drop back, but I think the Bills will

1761
01:27:33,520 --> 01:27:36,760
Speaker 1: play this close to the vest, find out what Miami's doing,

1762
01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:39,240
Speaker 1: get some matchups they like, stay on the field, try

1763
01:27:39,320 --> 01:27:42,600
Speaker 1: being as as efficient as they can. Score, score, you know,

1764
01:27:42,800 --> 01:27:45,639
Speaker 1: just score and get points on every drive if they can,

1765
01:27:46,840 --> 01:27:49,720
Speaker 1: and just force Miami to keep up and do it,

1766
01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:51,519
Speaker 1: and they'll do it. You can bet they're gonna put

1767
01:27:51,520 --> 01:27:54,160
Speaker 1: together some of these nine to eight play, nine play,

1768
01:27:54,240 --> 01:27:58,639
Speaker 1: ten play twelve play drives if they can, and squeeze

1769
01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:01,680
Speaker 1: the life out of them. This offense has always been

1770
01:28:01,720 --> 01:28:05,559
Speaker 1: efficient under Josh. With Josh at quarterback, yep, they get

1771
01:28:06,600 --> 01:28:10,160
Speaker 1: three plus points per drive. They're gonna force Miami to

1772
01:28:10,640 --> 01:28:11,880
Speaker 1: keep up with them if they can.

1773
01:28:12,160 --> 01:28:15,000
Speaker 2: At Miami's defense right now is giving up a league

1774
01:28:15,120 --> 01:28:18,760
Speaker 2: leading three points six to nine points per possession by

1775
01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:23,080
Speaker 2: their opponents. They're giving up a completion percentage of seventy

1776
01:28:23,240 --> 01:28:27,200
Speaker 2: nine percent through two games. That is the highest allowed

1777
01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:29,599
Speaker 2: in the league by a wide margin.

1778
01:28:29,840 --> 01:28:32,519
Speaker 1: I get this too. I think you and I say, well,

1779
01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:34,360
Speaker 1: it's he'sy. Just go back and hand it off every

1780
01:28:34,400 --> 01:28:36,040
Speaker 1: time and go down there like they did in the

1781
01:28:36,120 --> 01:28:38,160
Speaker 1: Jet game last year where they ran the ball nine

1782
01:28:38,280 --> 01:28:40,800
Speaker 1: times and threw it once and scored a touchdown and

1783
01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:42,479
Speaker 1: made a big statement. I don't know if it was

1784
01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:44,920
Speaker 1: the Jet game or I can't remember which game it was,

1785
01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:46,760
Speaker 1: but they did that one of the games this last year,

1786
01:28:47,439 --> 01:28:53,360
Speaker 1: and I don't see that happening. But because there's no

1787
01:28:53,479 --> 01:28:56,040
Speaker 1: reason not to trust Josh with the ball in his hands,

1788
01:28:56,280 --> 01:28:58,160
Speaker 1: dropping back and standing in the pocket, there's just no

1789
01:28:58,280 --> 01:29:02,280
Speaker 1: reason not to trust him. It's his critics and all

1790
01:29:02,320 --> 01:29:04,000
Speaker 1: the people outside the building are like, wow, he might

1791
01:29:04,080 --> 01:29:06,800
Speaker 1: turn it over. He throw it, he doesn't know. The

1792
01:29:06,880 --> 01:29:10,320
Speaker 1: guy doesn't throw interceptions like he did when he was

1793
01:29:10,320 --> 01:29:13,400
Speaker 1: a young player. So whether they want to do that

1794
01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:15,800
Speaker 1: hand the ball off and play it close to the best,

1795
01:29:15,920 --> 01:29:18,080
Speaker 1: or whether they want to turn Josh Louse against one

1796
01:29:18,080 --> 01:29:21,559
Speaker 1: of the worst statistical secondaries in the league, I think

1797
01:29:21,600 --> 01:29:24,960
Speaker 1: they can do both. I think they will force the

1798
01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:30,240
Speaker 1: Dolphins to stop the run, knowing that they can do

1799
01:29:30,360 --> 01:29:32,559
Speaker 1: that with Josh, he can drop back once a drive,

1800
01:29:32,720 --> 01:29:35,599
Speaker 1: get the crucial first down you need, and let's step

1801
01:29:35,680 --> 01:29:38,599
Speaker 1: back to handing it off. I think this Dolphins defense

1802
01:29:38,640 --> 01:29:41,360
Speaker 1: is gonna get tired of stopping the run tonight.

1803
01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:41,920
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1804
01:29:44,439 --> 01:29:48,360
Speaker 2: Then again, those linebackers at the second level have problems

1805
01:29:48,400 --> 01:29:51,439
Speaker 2: in coverage. I think the tight ends might have something

1806
01:29:51,479 --> 01:29:53,280
Speaker 2: to say about it tonight in the passing game. We'll

1807
01:29:53,320 --> 01:29:55,519
Speaker 2: wait and see. Keep an eye out for us in

1808
01:29:55,560 --> 01:29:57,760
Speaker 2: the tailgate lots. If you're hanging out there, you may

1809
01:29:57,840 --> 01:29:59,640
Speaker 2: see us rolling by in a golf cart and we

1810
01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:03,439
Speaker 2: could be trying some of your tailgate fair That's it

1811
01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:05,880
Speaker 2: for us today, though. Enjoy the game tonight, catch Steven

1812
01:30:05,920 --> 01:30:07,639
Speaker 2: Maddie on the post game, and we'll see you tomorrow

1813
01:30:07,720 --> 01:30:08,040
Speaker 2: at one
