1 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: This is One Bill's Live, presented by Colight of Health. 2 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 1: All right, here we are on a Tuesday, just two 3 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: days away from the next Bills game, already on this 4 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 1: tight week turnaround from Detroit to Detroit in a span 5 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 1: of four days, and the Bills are out on the 6 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: practice field for what will amount to probably anything that 7 00:00:55,320 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: comes close to resembling a real practice. Recovery time is 8 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 1: more important right now than hardcore practice and banging people around. 9 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you here on a Tuesday 10 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: edition of One Bills Live. And the team got out 11 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 1: there about a half hour ago and practicing indoors today 12 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: as their outdoor grass practice field is still under four 13 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: feet of snow, so that's not really an option. And 14 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 1: you're playing indoors anyway this week, So what the heck 15 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,039 Speaker 1: does it matter? It doesn't, it doesn't. But they got it. 16 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 1: You can tell out there. This is man I. They 17 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: are at a not really a walkthrough pace, a little 18 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: bit higher than that, a little bit more intense than 19 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: maybe a half a step more than a walkthrough. It 20 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: is definitely a walkthrough, talk through, jog through kind of 21 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 1: practice where they're you know, getting their legs underneath them, 22 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: and really it's it's it's one of those practices where 23 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: a lot of guys learned differently, and it's to get 24 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: them to walk through something. Is much better retaining that 25 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: information than it is shown it to him on a 26 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: film or showing it to him on a paper. So 27 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: they want to get through a walkthrough so that some 28 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: guys will retain that info for the game play a 29 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: little better. And that's basically all they do, yeah, because 30 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: they're they're not if they're breaking a sweat conditioning, that's 31 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: for sure. They're basically getting their reps into mentally know 32 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: what they have to do physically. They want them off 33 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,679 Speaker 1: their feet as much as possible over the next three 34 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: days so that their bodies can heal up and their 35 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 1: bodies feel good to play hard and play fast on Thursday. 36 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: There's a million moving parts of a football team, but 37 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: think about this, with the way the injury list is 38 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 1: and guys have been in the lineup, out of the lineup, 39 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: guys hurt, guys changing roles, guys switching doing more here 40 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: and less over here on the offense, on the defense 41 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 1: and special teams, or both, or a mixture of their 42 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: of that they need to walk through it to remember 43 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: that there's going to be a point in the game 44 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: where they don't normally have to be alert to go 45 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: in the game. Stuff like that. That's like foot you know, 46 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: it's like it seemed like, what are you doing over 47 00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: there staying you've got twelve guys. We've seen twelve guys 48 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: on the feet in a number of games. If you've 49 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: been watching the games around the NFL, teams are calling 50 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: time out. They're getting penalties for having twelve guys on 51 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: defense or having too many guys in the huddle on offense. 52 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: Because there's so much shuffling around and getting the coaching 53 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: staffs at this point in history of the NFL, you 54 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: can't curtail your playlist because you got guys shuffling in 55 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: and out. You put it in and you have somebody 56 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: else running it to the best of their ability. The 57 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: problem is they might not even know they're on the 58 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: field this week because they haven't been, or they were 59 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: last week. Now they're not, and they still think they are. 60 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: They're back out there, and now the other guy that 61 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: was supposed to be doing it's out there too, and 62 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: now you gotta take a time out. It's not that easy, 63 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: but practices like this. Sometimes that's all you do, that's 64 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: the whole, seriously, all you do. He'll say. The coach 65 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: will get out there and he'll say, hey, it's third 66 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: and two, two minutes to go in the half, first half, 67 00:03:54,080 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: third and two, we're going, big cat personnel go and 68 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: the right guys have to go off and the right 69 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: guys have to come on, and invariably there's guys like, 70 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: oh wait, what you know? So it's amazing the minutia 71 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: that goes into just getting guys out there and getting 72 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,679 Speaker 1: them lined up. It's and that's what this this week. 73 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: It's it is ripe for those kind of mistakes. It is. 74 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: But when you factor in the abbreviated and truncated practice 75 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: sessions the Bills had last week, it's almost like, this 76 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: is an improvement. Who are you guys? You get Monday, 77 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: they're gonna get Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. They didn't even 78 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: have that last week. Can you imagine walking in the 79 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: locker room the other day and oh my gosh, aj Klein, 80 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: what hey, bro, what's up? You're back? That's true, that's 81 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:50,239 Speaker 1: what happens. No, but they couldn't do any team practice 82 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: last Wednesday because the illness and injured players. Thursday, they 83 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: had a regular practice. Nothing Friday, So they had an 84 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 1: abbreviated practice on Wednesday. Absolutely nothing Friday except meeting on zoom. Yeah, 85 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: and then nothing Saturday either. Before the travel. It was 86 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: a monumental effort just to get them here to get 87 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: on a bus to go to the airport. This week 88 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: on a short week, they're gonna get more practice in 89 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: this week than they did last. Usually on a Saturday, 90 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: they'll come in and they'll have like a walk through, 91 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. They'll come in walk through. 92 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: That's what tomorrow. I'll have a couple of meetings. You'll watch. 93 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,679 Speaker 1: You'll watch Friday's practice short you're already's goal line stuff, 94 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: the situational football you go through on Saturday. On Friday, 95 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: you'll watch that on Saturday morning and talk about it 96 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: and say, hey, don't do this, do this, do that 97 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: day blah blah. Then you go, okay, guys see it 98 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: eleven o'clock in the morning. You say, all right, we'll 99 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: see out of here. Guys see at the airport in 100 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: like two and a half hours. Yeah, And that's what 101 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: they do. They go home, get their stuff and they leave. 102 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: But this last Saturday. It was like, all right, we 103 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: need you to get to the seven to eleven at 104 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: this corner and we'll come pick you up. It's like 105 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: it's like it's like a drug deal. I will meet you, 106 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: I will meet and don't let him see it. Don't 107 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: be followed, don't be followed. Make sure nobody sees you 108 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: because there's a travel band anyway. Right, so we're gonna 109 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna come and don't act like you know us. 110 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: Just get in the car. We're gonna drive off. Yeah, 111 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: it's like totally sneaking out of your parents house. Just 112 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: get down there and I'm gonna I'm gonna jump in 113 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: the car real quick. Um. We should mention this very 114 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: briefly for those that are not World Cup savvy, the 115 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: tournament is underway in Qatar, and for those that are 116 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: not soccer educated, the equivalent of Saint Peter's beating Kentucky 117 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: in the tournament last March happened this morning in Qatar. 118 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia beat a team that many consider a favorite 119 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: to win the whole thing, Argentina, in round robin play, 120 00:06:55,480 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 1: two to one. Today, King Salmon of Saudi Ara Maybe 121 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: has declared a national holiday tomorrow after their their win 122 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: over Argentina today. I'm pretty soccer carries a little bit 123 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: of weight around the world. Yeah, I'm pretty sure though 124 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: that if and when the Bills win the Super Bowl, 125 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: Mary Brown's gonna make it Buffalo Bill's Day on that 126 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: that's still only gonna be in Buffalo, Bro, It's not 127 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: in an entire country. I get you. You know, three 128 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: hundred million people won't be celebrating in the US. When 129 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: you're a king, you can do just buy anything more anyway, right, 130 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like president, It's not tomorrow from 131 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: all of you will be a holiday, which is what 132 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: it is for me every day.

I'm 133 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: going to do something and you got the rest of 134 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: you can just shut up and sit down because that's 135 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: lottering the fatted calf as well. It's gonna that's how 136 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: it's gonna be. Um, oh my god. Yeah, so pretty 137 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: big upset today. Um. For those that don't know US, 138 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: Team USA tide Wales yesterday one one, which was a 139 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: little disappointing since they were up early. But what are 140 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: you gonna do? They've got a gigantic game against England 141 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: on Friday Day after the Bills game against the Lions. 142 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: So if you got off on Friday, check it out. 143 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: It's gonna be intense. For sure. England is the favorite 144 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: there number five in the world. The US is like 145 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: number sixteen in the world, so it wouldn't it wouldn't 146 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: be a major upset, but it would be a surprise 147 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:37,719 Speaker 1: if the if the Yangs can steal one. So we'll see. 148 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: That's all the World Cup I'll pour on you today. 149 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 1: But I had to mention that the King Saudi Arabia 150 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 1: was a national holiday tomorrow. I got. I gotta tell 151 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: you thought, you gotta like. I kind of like it 152 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: for this man.

I'm curious 170 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 1: because Canadians have Canadian Thanksgiving, right, yeah, so I mean 171 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 1: we might as well check it out. I'm gonna have 172 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: a Thanksgiving day, Yeah, do Australian celebrating Thanksgiving. In the 173 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: Australian external territory of Norfolk Island, Thanksgiving is celebrated on 174 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: the last Wednesday of November, similar to the pre World 175 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: War two American observists observance of the last Thursday of 176 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: the month. So it looks like the external territory of 177 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: norfol what the heck is that somebody does so that way? 178 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: In one remote island of Australia, they celebrate Thanksgiving. That's tomorrow, 179 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: last Wednesday, the last Wednesdaymber Phone. Now, no, it'll be 180 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: next Wednesday, because next Wednesday is the thirtieth. And the 181 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: only reason I know that is because the Bills are 182 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: playing Thursday, December first against New England. I'm using the 183 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: bills schedule to determine the days. The cycle of your life, right, 184 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: the cycle of life is determined where I am and 185 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: my wife is somewhere nodding, right, yes, that okay, Yeah, 186 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: you're right. It's not that it's not tomorrow. It's a 187 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: week from tomorrow for the Northwest Remote the territory of 188 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 1: Norfolk Island. Yeah, it's the US. It's I guess it's 189 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: the equivalent of like the Yukon Territory for Canada. In 190 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: the Australian external territory of Norfolk Island, they celebrate Thanksgiving. 191 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: They don't celebrate anywhere else down there. It's gotta be 192 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: weird because it's like Thanksgiving in the summer, you know 193 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,199 Speaker 1: what I mean, it's summer down there. Almost of course 194 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: they don't because if they did, Google would tell us 195 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: and that's you know, yeah, so they don't. Just that 196 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: one place. Well, let me, I'm gonna what is it? 197 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: Remote territory, Northern territory, external territory territory, Norfolk Island, Um, yeah, 198 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: I don't. Yeah, they they sometimes have harvest and Thanksgiving 199 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: church services, but mostly don't celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday. And 200 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: then that's when they reference Northern Norfolk Island celebrates the holiday. 201 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: So there you go. Good for them. So Australian is 202 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: I wasn't completely so Australia is a kind of yeah 203 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving seller, I wasn't completely off the rails when I 204 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: wished our co worker from Australia Happy Thanksgiving by pure 205 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: stroke of luck. But yeah we are. Yeah, Okay, it's 206 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: not like you researched it to make sure I just 207 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: did again, you researched for me, and I took advantage 208 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: of your work. All right. Uh, let's get to practice. 209 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: Notes for today. As we know, the injury list is 210 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: long and it contains mostly players on the defensive side 211 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: of the ball once again this week. Not practicing today. 212 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: Aj Epinessa, who went out with an injury in last 213 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 1: Sunday's game, an ankle injury, Greg Russo who's still dealing 214 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 1: with a high ankle sprain. Mitch Morse, who is dealing 215 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 1: with elbow and ankle injuries, and then Tremaine Edmonds, who's 216 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 1: got a groin injury. Those are your non participants of practice. 217 00:12:55,559 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: Everybody else that's nicked up is participating in some capacity. 218 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: Tradevious White is practicing again today as he has the 219 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: last few weeks. Coach McDermott says, they continue to take 220 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: it a day at a time. So I gotta tell 221 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: you that, yeah, we're taking advantage of it's a holiday weekend. 222 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: Everybody's kind of wound up, you know, because day after 223 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: tomorrow is a big national holiday that's traditional. It's gonna 224 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: be awesome and all of that. You can't imagine how 225 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: short this week's feels for these players. And yesterday was 226 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: a day after a game that was on a weird week. 227 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: You know, you gotta go home. You got and your 228 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: family when you got. When you're at home, your family's 229 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: winding up for Thanksgiving and you're like trying to get 230 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: ready and you're like, oh my gosh, this is what Wednesday? 231 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 1: What do we do tomorrow? And we go what Thursday 232 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: and Friday tomorrow and then we we gotta leave. You know, 233 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: it's it's it's rough. So it's teams have been doing 234 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: it and the bills have been doing it now for 235 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: three years in a row. This is a fourth year 236 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: in a row. This is the fourth year in a row, 237 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 1: third year in a row for Thanksgiving. Three out of 238 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: the last four years for the Bills nineteen at Dallas, 239 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 1: nothing in twenty twenty, last year at New Orleans, and 240 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: now at Detroit. Three to last four years old. Yeah, well, 241 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: at least the people want to see the Bills. Yeah, 242 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 1: and now also too, what I what brought me to 243 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: that was the fact that the Bills should have this 244 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: kind of downpat their routine and all that. The thing 245 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: that you can't prepare for is which guys are going 246 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: to be in and out of lineup year to year 247 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: because of injuries or what have you. Yeah, this has 248 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: been a different year for the Bills in that regard 249 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: because of all the injuries. Guys have been in and 250 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: out of the lineup. Doesn't look like Edmunds is gonna 251 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: make it. Doesn't look like a Japaness is gonna make it, 252 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: or Greg Rousseau even Um, yeah, that's a problem. Well. Yeah. 253 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: The other thing too is I think you need to 254 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: keep in mind that the all important division games are 255 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: coming up fast a week from Thursday. You've got the Patriots, 256 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: and so if you had your druthers and if what 257 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: your athletic training department and your medical team is telling you, Hey, 258 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: if these guys get a few extra days arrest this week, 259 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: they should be ready by next Thursday when you play 260 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: New England. You're saving Greg Rousseau, Tremaine Edmunds and a 261 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: jest for New England. You're not going to play him 262 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: this week to potentially not have him next week. Do 263 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I don't know that that's 264 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: the case, but my point is the division games coming 265 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: up are carrying far more weight in the outcome of 266 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: your season. In this week's game against Detroit, that's right, 267 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: and you're planning a Detroit team that's four and six. 268 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: Every team that you're facing coming up is winning record 269 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: within your division after that, and Detroit has won three 270 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: in a row. They're they're getting it together. They're two 271 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,359 Speaker 1: and one in their own division. They're sitting right behind Minnesota, 272 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: who's kind of running away with that division, no question 273 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 1: about it. But Detroit's got to be thinking now they 274 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: got an outside shot at this They're only two games 275 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: out of the playoffs, right, so they're gonna bear down, 276 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: no pun intended for Chicago fans. They're gonna really knuckle 277 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 1: down and dig in and try and make them hay. 278 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: This three game winning streak has got Detroit feeling really 279 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: good and it should. It should. They were remember the 280 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 1: season started, they were the flavor of the month. Hard 281 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: Knocks was in Detroit. Dan Campbell is a very likable 282 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: coach and a leader and a guy who's no nonsense. 283 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: People gravitate towards him because of his personality and his 284 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: cher He wears it on his sleeve. You know. He 285 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 1: comes off the field after game it looks like he 286 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: got dropped out of the back of a truck. I mean, 287 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: the guy was just beat up, right. You gotta love 288 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: a guy like that. So them putting together a three 289 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: game winning streak after starting one and six, now they're 290 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: four and six and they climbed out of a hole. 291 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: So they're feeling really good and they should. So this 292 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: is a game. I mean, there's people on social media 293 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: physical brand and I know, yes, and the Bills. Bills 294 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: fans have got to be saying, oh gosh, please, not 295 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: the brow not the Lions, you know, not the Lion. 296 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: This Lions team is not gonna lay down. It's gonna 297 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 1: be hard on Thanksgiving in Detroit. I've been there. It's 298 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 1: not it's not like Week three and they're oh and 299 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,239 Speaker 1: three going in there to play them on Thanksgiving. They 300 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: could be one and not eight right now, and that 301 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 1: the fans are going to be there and Detroit it's 302 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: gonna be on Thanksgiving thirty five twenty one. Yes, um, yes, 303 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: And no matter how good or bad Detroit's season is going, 304 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: they always get up for that game. I think I 305 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: remember like a one or a two win Lions team beaten, 306 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 1: like a first place team, they'd be green bayers. They 307 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,719 Speaker 1: do it. They do it. Yeah, they rise up for them, 308 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: They pull out all the stops and they play well. 309 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: It's in their building and the fans are going to 310 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: be absolutely on fire. So one other practice note we 311 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: should mention from today. Josh Allen no sleeve on his 312 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: throwing elbow today. He had been wearing that since the 313 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: injury and he was not wearing that today. He had 314 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: short you know, he had his jersey on and no 315 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 1: like protective sleeve on it. You could have seen the 316 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: last couple of games that he played there was some 317 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 1: protective sleeve on his throwing elbow. The last two games 318 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: you could see it under his long sleeve shirt. Nothing 319 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: of the sort like that. Today. We don't know that 320 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: that means anything, but now that he's going with less 321 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 1: stuff on his elbow than he had previously, hopefully that's 322 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: an encouraging sign about the health of that throwing elbow 323 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: going forward. We're not doctors, we're not saying it is, 324 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: but it's it's different from what we've seen the last 325 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: two weeks, I guess is the point I'm trying to make. Well. 326 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 1: I mean, when you sit there and he's scrutinized the 327 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: way he is, when he does stuff like that, you 328 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: got you gotta talk about it. You know, he's not 329 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 1: wearing a sleeve on his arm that we thought was 330 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: injured that he's been wearing for the last three weeks. Yeah, 331 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 1: so there you go. Whatever that means, we'll find out. 332 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: You heard it here. First Bill's Practice Updates, presented by 333 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: Lee com Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. Not a 334 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: whole lot going on around the NFL, but we will 335 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 1: mention this. Jets head coach Robert Sala after we were 336 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: off the air yesterday, addressed the media in New York 337 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: and so we're in New Jersey and said he will. 338 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 1: He was asked, are you good to go with quarterback 339 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,119 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson as your starter the rest of the season, 340 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 1: and he said, everything is on the table at the 341 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: quarterback position for the rest of the years. So that's 342 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,199 Speaker 1: been interpreted to mean that Zach Wilson does not have 343 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: a stranglehold on the starting quarterback role the rest of 344 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: the way. And one has to believe this stems from 345 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 1: two things. One his horrific lack of production at the 346 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: quarterback position. Last week, he completed four passes for twelve 347 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: yards yards in the second half in the ten to 348 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: three or nine to three loss. What would to finish 349 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: nine three? Did they even kick the extra point? Oh? 350 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: Yeah they did because there were still time on the 351 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: time ten to three loss to the Patriots. I mean 352 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: to say the offense was anemic would be an understatement. 353 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 1: It was god awful. Not that the Patriots offense was 354 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: any better, but man, he completed I think then four 355 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 1: passes in the second half, four passes for twelve yards. 356 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: People were joking on Twitter that the Jets averaged two 357 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: point nine seven inches per offensive play. That's how small 358 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: their low their yardage was because they ran sixty something 359 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 1: plays and they had like I think they might have 360 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 1: had maybe less than sixty yards or something. I don't know. Yeah, 361 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: it was bad, really, it was god awful. It was 362 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: pretty bad there. Their rushing total he threw for seventy 363 00:20:56,160 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: nine for twenty two seventy seven yards. The rushing the 364 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 1: rushing totals were, you know, it was just rushing net 365 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 1: fifty nine yards, but in New England we had ninety 366 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:14,959 Speaker 1: nine forty four yards passing net. That's after you know, 367 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: sacks taking get taken off. Yeah, yeah, it was. It was. Yeah, 368 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: it was an abomination of offensive football. And then he 369 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: doubled down on it after because he was asked, hey, 370 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: do you feel like with the performance of the offense, 371 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: you guys let the defense down holding them to three points. 372 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,360 Speaker 1: The defense held them to three points. The only touchdown 373 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: was given up by special teams, and Zach Wilson said 374 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: no and then left. That was the end of the 375 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: press conference. Yeah, that was not which was not well 376 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 1: received as we are hearing by the defensive players on 377 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: the Jets rosters. So there's a little turmoil down there, 378 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: and we'll see if Robert Sala can extinguish the flames. Yeah, 379 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,879 Speaker 1: that's and he may have to start Mike White to 380 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: do it. I'll say this though you don't. It's I 381 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: get it. It doesn't look good. The kid, you know, 382 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: answered a did a poor job in the interview after 383 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: the game. Um, you know they were comparing what he 384 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 1: said to what Josh had said after they lost to 385 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: the Jets or was it the Jet It was the 386 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: Jet game, yes, Um and Josh. I don't know if 387 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: you remember this one. He say it's hard to win 388 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: when your quarterback plays like bleep and took full responsibility 389 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: for said he's stunk, and you know he just you know, 390 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: he did what Josh does. I mean, Um, Zach Wilson 391 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: did not do that, and it was way worse with 392 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: him than it was for Josh against the Jets. So 393 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: it didn't play well. He's taken a lot of heat 394 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: for it. I don't think. Well, here's the thing. They 395 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: go hand in hand. His he stunk. That's why they 396 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: may replace him. Um. It has nothing to do with 397 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: the postgame interview. Also, it's more about highlight. It highlights 398 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: some other problems that may be there that they're also 399 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: working on. It's a results oriented business. He didn't deliver 400 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: any results. So right, they're they're they're hanging on by 401 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: a thread here in an AFC conference. That is very real. 402 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 1: They had a real chance in that game against the Patriots. 403 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: Now they've been swept by the Patriots, who have now 404 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: leapfrogged them, leapfrog them based on that head to a tiebreaker, 405 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: and you know, they go from thinking they got a 406 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,160 Speaker 1: good shot at the postseason to now sitting in last 407 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,120 Speaker 1: place in the division. Yeah, they could have been seven 408 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: and three in a three way tie with Buffalo, Miami 409 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 1: and themselves. Instead they're at the fourth place in the 410 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: division at six and four, trailing all three teams, and 411 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: they've got a five hundred division record. Yeah. So that 412 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: was a huge game for the New York Jets that 413 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 1: they did not show up. And I've said this before, 414 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: I still think it's gonna be topsy turvy. These teams 415 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: are going to exchange places a lot over the last 416 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 1: seven games of the season just by virtue of the 417 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: fact that they're gonna be playing each other. So this 418 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 1: is not it's gonna move a lot between now and 419 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 1: the end of the year. For sure. Monday Night football 420 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 1: Niners are picking up steam man. He looked awfully good 421 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,479 Speaker 1: against a Cardinals team that's going the wrong way fast. 422 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,239 Speaker 1: Granted they didn't have Kyler Murray in the lineup. They 423 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 1: went with Colt McCoy, but their protection is an abomination 424 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: of pass pro. They're having trouble running the football and 425 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 1: they got annihilated last night. What was it, thirty eight 426 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 1: to ten? Yesh, Yeah, and that game was down in 427 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 1: Mexico City. Jimmy Garoppolo four touchdown passes. I heard Jeremy 428 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: mentioned it on the morning show on w GR here 429 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:35,360 Speaker 1: in Buffalo this morning. He said that the forty nine 430 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: ers now have three of the top five players in 431 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 1: the league in yards after catch, Kittle, Deebo Samuel, and 432 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 1: I think the third one was McCaffrey if I'm not mistaken. 433 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:50,239 Speaker 1: So Garoppolo doesn't have to do much when he can 434 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 1: throw a five yard pass and Kittle takes it thirty 435 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 1: five yards to the end zone or Deebo Samuel goes 436 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: forty yards after the catches made. You don't need a 437 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: guy that can chuck it fifty yards down the because 438 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 1: those guys will do it for you. Yeah, they did 439 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: an end around. They we just showed an end around Deebo. 440 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: Samuel went in motion, went behind the quarterback, took the 441 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: pitch and went right off the end untouched, forty yards 442 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: into the end zone. Yeah, they were hitting on all 443 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: celin or thirty eight to ten. It's just like the 444 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: Bills thirty eight three win over Pittsburgh. Arizona did nothing 445 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 1: and it took a minute too. I watched a little 446 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: of the game. It took a minute for the Niners 447 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 1: to get going. But they finished with a flurry, finished 448 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: with a big flurry, and it wasn't even close. Yeah, 449 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 1: it's all right. The Niners are going to be there 450 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 1: again this year. I mean they're Yeah, Cardinals, stick a 451 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: fork in them. They're done. Yeah, they are again done. 452 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 1: Deal Lucille and the Niners are atop the NFC West 453 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 1: now all by themselves, so it's still a tight race. 454 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 1: Seattle's hot on their heels, But the Niners look awfully 455 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: good and certainly look like the class of that division. 456 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: They are unbeaten in division play and that's why they're 457 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: ahead of the Seahawks now on that tiebreaker right in. 458 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: Seattle needs you know, they need to win this. Let's see, 459 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: this is their their bye week that they're on right now. 460 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: They'll come back the twenty twenty seventh coming up here. 461 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: They play Vegas at home this week. They were on 462 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: the bye this week, so they can stay ahead of 463 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 1: the Niners if they win this week because of the 464 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: number of games they've played. Yeah, so they can jump 465 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 1: ahead of them. They can go seven and four and 466 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: the Niners will be five and four, so or six 467 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: and four, six and four. Yeah, they're six and four, 468 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: all right. So that's the around.

What did you guys think they would stay 491 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,439 Speaker 1: in Detroit for the four days or was it clear 492 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,120 Speaker 1: from the jump that if they left, they were coming back. 493 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: I think it was they I don't think they considered 494 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 1: staying there. It would have been too difficult to because 495 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: they got so much going on back here with their 496 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:26,479 Speaker 1: rehab and recovery, strength conditioning, and it's such an easy 497 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: flight to and from Detroit.

They wanted to get back home. To be 500 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: with their loved ones and helped them through this spot. 501 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: So it was never really an option for them to 502 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: stay up there even though and maybe in a perfect 503 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: world they would have had the opportunity to do it totally. 504 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: All right, Well, I'm glad everybody is back and safe 505 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: and just couldn't be more impressed by the way that 506 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: Bills Mafia chipped in the City of good Neighbors certainly 507 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: earned its reputation last week. And I have no doubt 508 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: that if there is another Buffalo snowstorm soon, which it's Buffalo, 509 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: it's the winter, there could be the neighbors will once 510 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: again step up. Yeah, they may want to invest in 511 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: some more heavy machinery though to move this stuff, because 512 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: plow trucks literally could not move it. They had to 513 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: work in concert with front end loaders to move snow 514 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: because there was that much in the south towns here 515 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: in Orchard Park and other towns south of the city 516 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: like Hamburg and some others. But yeah, it was it 517 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: was bananas, But yeah, they pulled it off. They got 518 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: everybody to Detroit, which was a heavy lift, and they 519 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: got the wind most importantly, So now they're ramping up 520 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: for another one. Here, but field, we got to get 521 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: to your lineup, and I'm not going to give away 522 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: the store. There are no Bills or Lions on in 523 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: your roster this week, so you don't have to worry 524 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: about getting the lineup in early. Are there anybody playing 525 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: on let me look really quick, No, you got nobody 526 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: playing off Thanksgiving? Yeah, it's actually just a Sunday slate 527 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 1: here on fan duels, So we stick to the Sunday 528 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: slate and we'll start a quarterback and Gino Smith is 529 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: first up. And Gino has been so good this year 530 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: for the Seahawks, helping them right into the playoff hunt 531 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: in the NFC, and as far as matchups go, it's 532 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: about as good as there is for Gino comes off 533 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: of bye draws the Raiders, who they have struggled so 534 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 1: much all year defensively against the pass. A lot of 535 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 1: it's because the pass rush other than Max Crosby hasn't 536 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: been great, but there yon an experienced amongst their cornerback groups. 537 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: Gino himself has been consistent. Pretty reasonable price as well, 538 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: it's just seventy six hundred dollars, so he was an 539 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: early selection and an easy selection for me at quarterback 540 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: and then you go, let's give us both running backs. 541 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: So you got a guy playing the Houston Texan, a 542 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: guy playing the Chargers. Yeah, we're going with the matchups here, 543 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: Jeff Wilson Junior for the Dolphins and James Connor for 544 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: the Cardinals, and the matchups are really good for both 545 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: of them. Jeff Wilson Junior faces the Texans, who have 546 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: been by far, and I mean by far, the worst 547 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: run defense in the NFL this season, just really really 548 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: poor basically every single week. I Meanwhile, James Connor gets 549 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: a pretty good matchup himself in the Los Angeles Chargers. 550 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: We saw them this past Sunday night and they allowed 551 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: the Chiefs to have their first one hundred yard rusher 552 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: of the season, that being Isaiah Pacheco, the rookie out 553 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: of Rutgers. Wouldn't be surprised if both Connor and Wilson, 554 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: if they get twenty carries challenged for a hundred yards each. 555 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: Both priced in the seven thousands range, Connor at seven 556 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: thousand flat and Jeff Wilson Junior at seven thousand and 557 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: seven hundred, So pretty consistent here. We haven't had a 558 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: huge spender, haven't had a huge value yet either on 559 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: our board receivers field, and look, I'm the biggest fan 560 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 1: of this guy as anybody. He's probably been the most 561 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: consistent rookie receiver due in part to some injuries on 562 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: his roster, but he's gonna be focal point number one 563 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 1: in the passing game for that opposing defense. How do 564 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: you aweigh that sometimes in these weeks and decisions that 565 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: you have to make. Yeah, it's a great question, Brownie. 566 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: And the player in reference here is Christo Lave for 567 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: the Saints, and the reason why he still fits the 568 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: bill is You're absolutely right. The four Niners probably will dive. 569 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 1: You know, you provide much of their attention or focus 570 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 1: much of their attention on Chris olav this week. They 571 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: haven't been dominant though against opposing wide receivers in fantasy football. 572 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: There might be a number of reasons for that. But 573 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 1: one thing I do like about a Lava, other than 574 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: the talent, is the potential that this game is ugly 575 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 1: like it was last night. I mean the Saints defense 576 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: and we'll see on some of the injuries, but has 577 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 1: not had marsha On Lattimore for a long time. Cam 578 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: Jordan their most dependable player on the entire roster, missus 579 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: first game due to injury. Ever, this past week he's 580 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: got a broken bone in his face. If those two 581 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: can't play, San Francisco should be able to move the 582 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: football a ton on Sunday. Jimmy Garoppolo's got twelve touchdown 583 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: passes and a verse past six games. This could lead 584 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: to some good game script for Chris Olave and the 585 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: Saints be playing from behind a couple other wide receivers, 586 00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: both from the same team, as DK Metcaffe and Tyler 587 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,959 Speaker 1: Pocket both find their way into our lineup. We are 588 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: triple stacking this week. If we have Geno Smith and 589 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: we think he's going to go off, the most likely 590 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: outcome is he's throwing passes and touchdowns two Tyle Lockett 591 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 1: and DK Metcalf, both priced at seventy four hundred or below. 592 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,479 Speaker 1: DK is actually at seventy two hundred, so one as 593 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: much of that game as I can get, and I 594 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 1: think more so than ever. You guys are seeing that 595 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 1: it's a pretty sort of steadily paced lineup this week. 596 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: For me, no player above seventy seven hundred bucks, but 597 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 1: so far no player below seventy two hundred dollars. So 598 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 1: a lot of strong options that an aggurate I think 599 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: add up to a winning lineup. And then really your 600 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: most inexpensive player on your roster is your tight end. 601 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 1: Evan Ingram. Yeah, Evan Ingram, who I was sort of 602 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 1: surprised the number was this low at forty nine hundred bucks. 603 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: It's not that Ingram has been dominant. But if you 604 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: guys look around the tight end position right now in 605 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: fantasy football, Travis Kelsey is in a tier by himself. 606 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 1: What else is new? Mark Andrews is the next best 607 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 1: option behind him, But there are a lot of players 608 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: at tight end that are really good that are either 609 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: unavailable because of injury or otherwise. You've got guys like 610 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard and Zach Ertz who are out, and Kyle 611 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 1: Pitts who hasn't been great at all this year, but 612 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: he's also out as well. Try to find ten reliable 613 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: tight ends for fantasy football. Trust me, it'll probably take 614 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 1: you until next season, when we hope there are more 615 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: reliable options in the game. But Evan Ingram, who's been 616 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 1: okay for the Jaguars, I'd say probably the third or 617 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: fourth option in that passing offense, but they may have 618 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 1: to play catch up against that Ravens team as well. 619 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: So Ingram is my tight end and then I'll sect 620 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: right to the flex because another player that has some 621 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: name value here in Chris Godwin for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 622 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: who finally found the end zone and the final game 623 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,439 Speaker 1: prior to Tampa's by which was back in Week ten. 624 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 1: Godwin's targets have been crazy this year. He got hurt 625 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: in Week one after recovering from the ACL tare late 626 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,879 Speaker 1: last season, then he missed a couple of games. Since 627 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: he's been back, he's been basically a full time player 628 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 1: and seeing ten plus targets per game. I have no 629 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: concerns about the volume for Chris Godwin, and you know 630 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: it's been a real slog for that Bucks offense for 631 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 1: the most part this season. But that Brown's defense, as 632 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: you guys saw on the back end, pretty inexperienced, not 633 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 1: exactly super dominant yet, So it wouldn't be surprised if 634 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 1: the Bucks move the ball against them. Yeah right, but 635 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: enough to see if they can get Greg Newsom back 636 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: because he went into concussion protocol late last week. It 637 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,080 Speaker 1: missed the Bills game. We'll see if he gets out 638 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 1: of concussion protocol this week, all right, defense going with 639 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 1: one of the most physical units in the game as 640 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,719 Speaker 1: the Titans. You're right, and you know I always tell 641 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 1: you guys, I don't like to spend much on defense. 642 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:41,400 Speaker 1: The calculus here is pretty simple. Bengals offensive line a 643 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: little bit better of late, still not great, and Joe 644 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,359 Speaker 1: Mixon might be out, so it could be that they're 645 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: without their starting running back who just a few weeks 646 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 1: ago I had five rushing touchdowns or five total touchdowns 647 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,240 Speaker 1: in a game. Wouldn't be surprised if this Tennessee team 648 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: keeps him close and slows down the Bengals offense, because 649 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: that's what they do, right. I mean, I know it 650 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 1: sounds crazy for Bills fans because they think of Week 651 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: two when the Bills basically dog walk the Titans on 652 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 1: Monday Night football. It was really not pretty at all 653 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: for Tennessee. But they have, as they are want to 654 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: do under Mike Vrabel, gotten back on track. They took 655 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 1: the Chiefs to overtime twenty to seventeen and like the weirdest, 656 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 1: strangest game you'll ever see. And last week, what do 657 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: they do to the Packers? They neutralize them. They just 658 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,359 Speaker 1: find a way to kind of slow you down. That's 659 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,760 Speaker 1: why the Titans fit in at thirty seven hundred dollars. 660 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 1: Two hundred dollars left over, you can put that towards 661 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 1: your favorite pie. You could donate it. Good time of 662 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: the year to be thinking of others.

I think for Bill's fans 780 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: that have been around long enough, they know the lengthy 781 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 1: sojourn we went on from basically Jim Kelly, I guess 782 00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 1: drew Bledsoe for a minute and Flutey, but after that 783 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:37,799 Speaker 1: it was a barren waste land of quarterbacking. Well, yeah, 784 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: it's not only that he got a guy for a 785 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 1: long time, he got a win in spite of or 786 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,400 Speaker 1: just hope he doesn't mess it up for you. But 787 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 1: now you've got a guy that's elite. I mean, you 788 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 1: got a guy that's one of the best players in 789 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 1: the lane. Yeah, he's the best player. Yeah, he's just 790 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: got everything going on at once, and it's it's just 791 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: a ton of fun to watch him. Um. In fact, 792 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:00,560 Speaker 1: you know when you envisioned how this game is gonna go, 793 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,879 Speaker 1: remember this. Now here's what we I just found this out, 794 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 1: and this this is old news.

It usually is blue pants white. Okay, 797 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,359 Speaker 1: they're gonna wear the blue pants. That's what they wore 798 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 1: in Dallas for your thanks for Thanksgiving.

He's played 820 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,439 Speaker 1: at a pretty high level his entire career, but yeah, 821 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 1: he might it might have ticked up an extra notch 822 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:35,320 Speaker 1: this year because the splash plays are there with more frequency. 823 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,279 Speaker 1: Splash plays or what exactly what I was gonna say, Um, 824 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 1: tipped tip balls, interceptions, tackles for loss, sacks, fumbles. Um, 825 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: he's all over the field and he seems to be 826 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: getting out ahead of it mentally. Where you know when 827 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:52,879 Speaker 1: they when the quarterback wants to go someplace, he's either 828 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: already thought of it or he's already there. It's just 829 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 1: and I don't want to belittle this. Leslie Frasier is 830 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,919 Speaker 1: still an outstanding coordinator. They're doing a really nice job 831 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 1: with the way they're deploying their players and the way 832 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 1: they're using them, so and they're they're up against it. 833 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott was asked also one of the other players 834 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 1: he mentioned. McDermott was asked this morning, so what about 835 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 1: this fact that the Bills are six and oh, when 836 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer's on the field, and oh and three when 837 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 1: he's not. There is a ripple effect when great players 838 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:27,400 Speaker 1: are in and out of the lineup. When they're in, 839 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 1: there's a ripple effect for the positive, and when they're out, 840 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:32,720 Speaker 1: there's a ripple effect for the negative. I'm not saying 841 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 1: he's the tipping point of all the losses and then 842 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: he's the difference in all the wins. But guys like 843 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 1: him do make differences, no question. And Leslie Frasier when 844 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:48,440 Speaker 1: he was talking to the media yesterday afternoon, he said, yeah, 845 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,359 Speaker 1: he said, he's making plays on the back end which 846 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 1: help us. Then where our MSG viewers are watching one 847 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:57,239 Speaker 1: of those now, the tight end David and Joku had 848 00:46:57,239 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 1: to pass twenty yards down the right sideline. He gets 849 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 1: there and breaks up the pass and forces an incompletion. 850 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:05,400 Speaker 1: Those are the kinds of plays that he typically makes, 851 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:09,040 Speaker 1: and he made one of those. Makes a difference on 852 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 1: the back end. I think the injuries have been so 853 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 1: numerous for so long on the defensive side of the ball. 854 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:19,919 Speaker 1: It's almost like Bill's fans, it doesn't even they're like numb, 855 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,120 Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? It doesn't register an 856 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 1: we haven't had player for three games. Oh hides out 857 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 1: for the year. Oh Tradevius White hasn't played since last Thanksgiving. Like, oh, 858 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 1: Rousseau is gonna miss a third game. Oh, it's just 859 00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:35,760 Speaker 1: it's one after another. Edmonds has missed the last two games. 860 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,440 Speaker 1: It's just, you know, yeah, you can't get away from it. 861 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 1: It's it's frustrating and yet at the same time, they're 862 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,640 Speaker 1: still playing pretty damn good defense right now under coach Frasier. 863 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 1: And the other thing I wanted to mention regarding Milano, 864 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 1: Coach Frasier said this yesterday as well, when he addressed 865 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:54,879 Speaker 1: the media. He said, another thing that's different about Matt 866 00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:59,400 Speaker 1: now is he's more communicative on the field with his teammates. 867 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 1: I think we all kind of know him as a quiet, 868 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: as kept type of person. And apparently that was partially 869 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:09,480 Speaker 1: true on the playing field as well, and coach Frazier said, 870 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:14,320 Speaker 1: it's it's encouraging that he's you know, more demonstrative more. 871 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,400 Speaker 1: You know, he talks a lot more with his teammates, 872 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 1: you know, pre snap on the field now as well. 873 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:22,480 Speaker 1: And I think it's just, you know, he knows this 874 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:24,640 Speaker 1: offense inside and out. But is this is sixth year 875 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:29,280 Speaker 1: in it, so it's just it comes naturally at this point. 876 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,920 Speaker 1: Nick on the tweet sheet says, I'm thankful for McDermott 877 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:35,120 Speaker 1: and Bean. I haven't forgotten the drought era. I grew 878 00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:36,960 Speaker 1: up in The playoffs used to seem like a pipe 879 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 1: dream every year, But now we just take for granted 880 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 1: that we'll be in the playoffs every year and get 881 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 1: mad when we might not be the number one seed. 882 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:45,480 Speaker 1: It is a one eighty from where it used to be. 883 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 1: As you pointed out earlier, it's a different bar now. 884 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,880 Speaker 1: I mean, holy cow, the I mean you're right. I mean, 885 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,080 Speaker 1: we're talking about in the one seed and we're not 886 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:58,000 Speaker 1: even like like last week the Bills were went from 887 00:48:58,000 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 1: the one to the five seed or something like that 888 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 1: or whatever it was. We were shrugging our shoulders like 889 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,040 Speaker 1: it don't matter. You know, we're gonna be in the 890 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:07,839 Speaker 1: tournament at the end of it, but we do want 891 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 1: a game at home, you know. That's really the kind 892 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:15,160 Speaker 1: of what everybody's shooting for. This is a club that 893 00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:19,520 Speaker 1: is just absolutely a stone cold lock for the playoffs 894 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 1: at this point, even given the way the rest of 895 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:24,280 Speaker 1: the division is playing and the rest of the conference 896 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 1: and how tough it is. You just don't feel like 897 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:29,359 Speaker 1: that's in doubt, although you know by the statistic, I 898 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,400 Speaker 1: mean they're you know, they're not a shoe in right now, 899 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,239 Speaker 1: nobody's really is. But yeah, you just feel like that's 900 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 1: not on the table anymore. And that's a long I 901 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 1: think about how long a way that is from where 902 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:40,239 Speaker 1: they used to play every year, year in and out. 903 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 1: By this week, twelve of the seasons in years decades past, 904 00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,880 Speaker 1: we're like, well, we hope this team loses three, and 905 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:53,000 Speaker 1: we hope that team and we went out kind of thing, right, 906 00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:56,080 Speaker 1: it's just crazy.

The problem was were you going to be 934 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:57,200 Speaker 1: able to make it to the game and you were 935 00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 1: kind of in the locker room hearing guys come in, 936 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:01,239 Speaker 1: hearing the stories.

Yeah, we were just excited. We 939 00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:08,560 Speaker 1: were excited to get out. Um, you know, got a 940 00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:10,200 Speaker 1: lot of snow in a short amount of time, and 941 00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:12,640 Speaker 1: luckily we had a lot of good neighbors. Bill's Mafia 942 00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 1: helped us get out. But after everyone got to facility, 943 00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 1: you know, everyone was just excited.

What was your snow story? I 948 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 1: lived pretty close to the facility, and unfortunately enough, me 949 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:36,680 Speaker 1: and my girlfriend shoved out my truck. Took us about 950 00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:38,480 Speaker 1: thirty minutes. But once we got it out, I was 951 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:42,719 Speaker 1: able to okay, yeah, I live, yeah, pretty close, a 952 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,600 Speaker 1: couple hundred yards, right, yeah something four wheel, four wheel 953 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:48,719 Speaker 1: high or four will high all the way, try not 954 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 1: to burn the engine out. But yeah, yeah, so you 955 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:55,839 Speaker 1: get in and now short week, everything's compressed and we 956 00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:57,560 Speaker 1: were out there for a minute. Practice was kind of 957 00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 1: a glorified walked a little bit kind of a jog through. Uh. 958 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 1: I was saying that, and especially for you with the 959 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:06,279 Speaker 1: guys that you're you know, when you kick off and 960 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:08,800 Speaker 1: when your fuegal protection stuff, there's a ton of injuries, 961 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,719 Speaker 1: and sometimes injuries show themselves more on special teams they 962 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,440 Speaker 1: do in place else because like last yeah, Questenbury, Questenbury 963 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:17,759 Speaker 1: gets ding Dodson is now playing down and distance, so 964 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:19,680 Speaker 1: he may be plucked out of your your stuff and 965 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 1: the special team stuff and them. Um, So you know, 966 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:25,520 Speaker 1: what was it like? Is it going through a lot 967 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:29,240 Speaker 1: of personnel changes and substitutions and stuff like that getting 968 00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:31,840 Speaker 1: ready for this game? I mean, yeah, I try to 969 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,040 Speaker 1: kind of focus on what you know, you know, my 970 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,200 Speaker 1: job is. But you know, I think we have a 971 00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:38,800 Speaker 1: lot of depth, especially on special teams, and it's a 972 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:41,640 Speaker 1: next man up mentality. Um. And I think Smiley and 973 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:43,879 Speaker 1: Hark you do a great job of getting our line 974 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:45,959 Speaker 1: up ready to go, and uh, we're confident one hundred 975 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:49,960 Speaker 1: percent with whoever's out there, Tyler. You coach Smiley has 976 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 1: kind of implemented having you kind of pop it up 977 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,040 Speaker 1: short of the goal line and trust your coverage unit. 978 00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:57,960 Speaker 1: For the most part, You've guys have gotten very good 979 00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,359 Speaker 1: results on that. You know, anytime you hold them shy 980 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:04,920 Speaker 1: the twenty five, it's a win. I think. So this 981 00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 1: is a pretty good return unit though, that you guys 982 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 1: are facing this week. I'm not asking you for strategy 983 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:13,120 Speaker 1: this week, but when you face a challenging unit like 984 00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:16,160 Speaker 1: that that's put up good average drive starts for their offense, 985 00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:19,279 Speaker 1: does it just kind of I don't know. I don't 986 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:21,080 Speaker 1: want to say you focus more one week than any 987 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:23,600 Speaker 1: other week, but when you're playing a good group, your 988 00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:25,399 Speaker 1: ears kind of perk up a little bit. I would think, 989 00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:28,359 Speaker 1: like you put in the study time, you know, even 990 00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:30,640 Speaker 1: more as to maybe what they like to do. Yeah, 991 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 1: I mean you you watch the tape. You see you 992 00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:35,120 Speaker 1: know they're a good return team, and obviously you have 993 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 1: a lot of respect for them because they've done a 994 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:38,400 Speaker 1: great job. But at the end of the day, you 995 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:41,160 Speaker 1: got to focus on ourselves and do what we do best, 996 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 1: and for me, just got to go out and give 997 00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:45,279 Speaker 1: the best kick I can to give our guys the 998 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,600 Speaker 1: best chance they can to make the play. So that's 999 00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:49,160 Speaker 1: the game plan. How much do you kick in a 1000 00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 1: usual week and how does that change for this short week? 1001 00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 1: Usually I kicked twice a week and this week, no 1002 00:54:56,160 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 1: kicking because it's a short tun around. So I think 1003 00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:00,279 Speaker 1: the biggest scene this week is just get the body 1004 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:02,719 Speaker 1: ready to go, get it back feeling good, feeling explosive, 1005 00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 1: and just feeling good going into Thursday. It probably helps 1006 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 1: that you were extra busy on Sunday, so you know, 1007 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 1: you got you got extra work on Sunday. It's like 1008 00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:13,799 Speaker 1: you don't even need it on a short week after 1009 00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:17,080 Speaker 1: you know, kicking seven times plus kickoffs, right, I mean 1010 00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:18,880 Speaker 1: that you got a lot of You got a lot 1011 00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,000 Speaker 1: of reps in during the game. Yeah. Yeah, we got 1012 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,080 Speaker 1: a lot of reps, and I think it's good experience. 1013 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:25,439 Speaker 1: You know, every rep we get we learned something from 1014 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:27,879 Speaker 1: and going forward, we just take that experience to take 1015 00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 1: that confidence from those reps and apply it to the 1016 00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 1: next one. Not to mention in the same building the 1017 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 1: very next week. And what did you think when coach, 1018 00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 1: because you guys, technically last week we're the home team, 1019 00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:40,879 Speaker 1: but Coach said, no, put us in the visiting locker room, 1020 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:43,439 Speaker 1: put us on the visiting sideline because that's exactly where 1021 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: we're gonna be in four days. Does that Does that 1022 00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 1: help you guys with any of the visualization stuff and everything. 1023 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:52,240 Speaker 1: It seems like a minor thing, but to some players 1024 00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,000 Speaker 1: it's kind of a big deal. I'm just curious, Like 1025 00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:56,759 Speaker 1: that's interpretations a great question. Um No, I think it 1026 00:55:56,960 --> 00:56:00,319 Speaker 1: absolutely helps. Um you know, you visualized not only what 1027 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,279 Speaker 1: you want to do in the game, but you visualize 1028 00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 1: your pregame routine, like you waking up, like the locker 1029 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:07,640 Speaker 1: room that now we've been there. Now we know exactly 1030 00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:09,279 Speaker 1: what the locker room's like, and we know where we're 1031 00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 1: gonna be at, and just something less you think about, 1032 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 1: you know, and now it's easier for you to get 1033 00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 1: in the routine. Give us an idea of you know, 1034 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 1: same hotel, same routine, all that stuff. Certainly, but now right, 1035 00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:25,600 Speaker 1: tell us about the Lions instead of the Browns. Now 1036 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:27,640 Speaker 1: you got to start getting your mind around what's their 1037 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:30,520 Speaker 1: personality like on special teams. They're a good team. They're 1038 00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 1: a physical team, they have a lot of juice. I 1039 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 1: think they're well coached, will discipline, and they have some 1040 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,560 Speaker 1: really good talented specialists. So we got to work cut 1041 00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:41,880 Speaker 1: out for us, and I think we're excited for the 1042 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 1: challenge for sure. Our fans are still getting to know 1043 00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:48,879 Speaker 1: Sam Martin a little bit. Obviously, you spend a lot 1044 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 1: more time around him than maybe anybody else with the 1045 00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:55,560 Speaker 1: exception to read. So what can you kind of lend 1046 00:56:56,040 --> 00:56:58,879 Speaker 1: to maybe what kind of personality he is? Obviously he's 1047 00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:00,759 Speaker 1: a veteran in the league. He's been around a long time. 1048 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:02,840 Speaker 1: A matter of fact, I think he played for the 1049 00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:06,279 Speaker 1: Lions earlier in his career. So what can you what 1050 00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:07,880 Speaker 1: can you kind of share with us in terms of 1051 00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:11,279 Speaker 1: the kind of person that sends a great guy? I 1052 00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:13,719 Speaker 1: think round the first guy here, we didn't skip a beat. 1053 00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 1: He fit right in. Um. He's full of life. He 1054 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 1: always has a smile on his face, always brings juice 1055 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 1: to us. Uh. And he's kicked punned for a long time. 1056 00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:24,120 Speaker 1: And he has a lot of experience, and he shares 1057 00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 1: with me little bits and pieces of knowledge which is 1058 00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,080 Speaker 1: very helpful. Um. But he's just full of life. He's 1059 00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:32,360 Speaker 1: a great guy to be around. He just has infectious energy. Um. 1060 00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 1: And I'm excited we got him. So you're you know, 1061 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:37,200 Speaker 1: what are the best kickers in Bill's history? You're right 1062 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,360 Speaker 1: up there, you're and you're climbing on the points total 1063 00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:41,600 Speaker 1: as well, like your number eight all time. I mean, 1064 00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:44,800 Speaker 1: this is am a team that you know, you've really 1065 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,480 Speaker 1: come and when you got when you get picked up 1066 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:50,360 Speaker 1: by Buffalo, it's like, oh, we're gonna have another days 1067 00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 1: like we thought we were gonna have this last Sunday. 1068 00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:57,360 Speaker 1: But in actuality, it's more about the locker room and 1069 00:57:57,360 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 1: and the guys and the coaching staff and how have 1070 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:01,919 Speaker 1: you back him yourself really well? Now you're almost you're 1071 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,840 Speaker 1: like a you carved your name in the granted of 1072 00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 1: the roster. I mean you're not going anywhere. That's got 1073 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:08,560 Speaker 1: to feel pretty good. Oh yeah, I feel like I 1074 00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,120 Speaker 1: still got a lot a lot left um to give 1075 00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:13,440 Speaker 1: and I have a lot more to you know, improve on. 1076 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:16,520 Speaker 1: But you know, I think when I got the call 1077 00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:18,480 Speaker 1: that I was coming to Buffalo, I think just for me, 1078 00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:21,320 Speaker 1: that was wow, Like they want me, like they really 1079 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:22,880 Speaker 1: like believe in me. And for me, that goes a 1080 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:25,920 Speaker 1: long way. And um with our culture, our coaching staff 1081 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:27,560 Speaker 1: and the players in the building. Man, it's it's a 1082 00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 1: big family. And I think that's really helped the most 1083 00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:32,440 Speaker 1: for me as far as my transition from college to here. 1084 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:34,520 Speaker 1: It's just you know, they're always going to have your back, 1085 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:36,840 Speaker 1: and that's what for me. I give us some insight 1086 00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:38,920 Speaker 1: because you're you're the same like the same thing as me. 1087 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 1: I mean I was covering kicks and stuff, and I 1088 00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,479 Speaker 1: was like a late round draft pick. Uh, it does 1089 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,600 Speaker 1: mean something when that team says no, no, of all 1090 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:47,320 Speaker 1: the guys that are left, that's the one we wanted. 1091 00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 1: That really goes a long way towards giving me a 1092 00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:51,720 Speaker 1: sense of loyalty and a sense of like, I'm going 1093 00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:53,680 Speaker 1: to do it for these guys because they believed in me. Yeah, 1094 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:56,439 Speaker 1: one hundred percent. Man, I took it personal. Um, when 1095 00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 1: you see guys going before you in the draft and um, 1096 00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:01,240 Speaker 1: you get the call on the bills and they want you. Man, 1097 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 1: that that's something I'm never gonna forget and I'm always 1098 00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:07,560 Speaker 1: gonna hold holding near and dear Yea Nihim Highes Tyler 1099 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:10,480 Speaker 1: he's got you know, he parachutes in mid season at 1100 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:13,880 Speaker 1: the trade deadline. But that guy had one hundred and 1101 00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:17,560 Speaker 1: thirteen return yards last week. I don't think it gets 1102 00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:21,480 Speaker 1: enough notice from fans at the end of the day 1103 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:24,600 Speaker 1: because it's even hard to find it in the box score. 1104 00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 1: But one hundred and third those are the hidden yards, 1105 00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:30,000 Speaker 1: Like one hundred and thirteen yards for you guys. I 1106 00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:33,240 Speaker 1: mean that's a I mean, that's a big green check mark, 1107 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:35,680 Speaker 1: you know by Coach Smiley when he's got you guys 1108 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:37,720 Speaker 1: in the meetings on Monday right now, it's it's it's 1109 00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:40,640 Speaker 1: a big thing. Um nahim. He's even in PRAC even 1110 00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:43,080 Speaker 1: a walk through where you know, walking through a kickoff 1111 00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 1: and I'm like the scout kicker and I have to 1112 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 1: kind of cover him. He's he's very shifty. Um, but no, 1113 00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:50,240 Speaker 1: those yards are huge. Any any extra yards you can 1114 00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:53,880 Speaker 1: get on special teams, especially hundred thirteen, Yeah, that goes 1115 00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:56,920 Speaker 1: a very long way. And I'm super super excited we 1116 00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:59,000 Speaker 1: have him. He's awesome to watch. It just seems like 1117 00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:03,600 Speaker 1: it's it's like this far away right from you guys 1118 01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:06,640 Speaker 1: Busting One, Like, yeah, can you I mean you're you 1119 01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:08,920 Speaker 1: get you get to watch him on returns because you're 1120 01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:11,280 Speaker 1: not out there with the rest of your unit. I mean, 1121 01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:14,080 Speaker 1: do you is the film that you guys are reviewing? 1122 01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:17,800 Speaker 1: Does it look close like he's close to Busting One? 1123 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,680 Speaker 1: Seems I feel like any given play he can he 1124 01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:24,160 Speaker 1: can take one to the house. Um, just base, holl shifty, fast, 1125 01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 1: he just decisive, strong runner. Um, any given playoff feel 1126 01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:30,640 Speaker 1: like he can take it to the house. Yeah, Well, 1127 01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:34,200 Speaker 1: this is when you come in in a short week 1128 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,360 Speaker 1: like this and you know you just played in the 1129 01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:40,000 Speaker 1: same stadium, you'll probably have the same locker pregame, you know, 1130 01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:41,880 Speaker 1: Like you said, it's going to be really familiar because 1131 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:43,640 Speaker 1: I think it's fewer things to think about. I think 1132 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:47,439 Speaker 1: the equipment crew brought the jerseys not only for last 1133 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:49,800 Speaker 1: week's game, but for this week's game too, and they 1134 01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:53,240 Speaker 1: just left him there and locked everything up. I think 1135 01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:57,280 Speaker 1: maybe I kind of doubt that. Yeah, I kind of 1136 01:00:57,280 --> 01:00:59,440 Speaker 1: doubt that, but maybe they did. Maybe I know they 1137 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:01,720 Speaker 1: did a thing on social with that. But give us 1138 01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:05,200 Speaker 1: an idea of this coming in same stadium, same you know, 1139 01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:07,680 Speaker 1: just in a quick week. Tell us about you know, 1140 01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:09,520 Speaker 1: you're you've got, you know, your own support or your 1141 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:11,479 Speaker 1: roommates and all the people that are kind of helping 1142 01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 1: you know, your your family coming in for Thanksgiving or 1143 01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:17,640 Speaker 1: seeing him for Thanksgiving. Ah, No, my family is not 1144 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:20,800 Speaker 1: coming up for Thanksgiving unfortunately, but um I have my 1145 01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:25,360 Speaker 1: girlfriend and um reading his wife and all the specialists. 1146 01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:28,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna try to have a little Thanksgiving after the 1147 01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving game. But I think it's super cool we get 1148 01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:33,400 Speaker 1: to play on Thanksgiving. You know, as a kid, it's 1149 01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:35,520 Speaker 1: just like that's that's football, that's what it's all about. 1150 01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:38,880 Speaker 1: And so m no, I'm excited we're doing that, but 1151 01:01:38,920 --> 01:01:41,040 Speaker 1: we definitely have something plan for after the last one 1152 01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 1: I got for you is you're not only it's been 1153 01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 1: a wacky couple of weeks, schedule of wise last week 1154 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:51,760 Speaker 1: because of all the crazy circumstances, sick players, snow moving 1155 01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:54,640 Speaker 1: the game. Then you turn around, you play on Thanksgiving, 1156 01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:56,960 Speaker 1: and now you turn around and you play a division 1157 01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:00,800 Speaker 1: opponent the following Thursday. It's not like a mini buy. 1158 01:02:01,080 --> 01:02:03,680 Speaker 1: And then you play the following Sunday. You're playing Thursday again, 1159 01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:05,560 Speaker 1: So now the days are all screwed up again. Like 1160 01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:08,320 Speaker 1: I think Sunday this weekend is going to be like 1161 01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:12,160 Speaker 1: your Wednesday pretty much. So you come back and what 1162 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:14,440 Speaker 1: does that do? I mean, at least it's a week away, 1163 01:02:14,840 --> 01:02:17,480 Speaker 1: not four days away. But it's a Thursday again. No, 1164 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 1: it's it's a lot of football, yeah, but you just 1165 01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:21,600 Speaker 1: have to take it one day at a time, that's 1166 01:02:21,600 --> 01:02:24,080 Speaker 1: all you can do. Don't get too far ahead of it. Um, 1167 01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:26,640 Speaker 1: we got we got the Detroit Lions first, yes, but 1168 01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:28,520 Speaker 1: definitely one day at a time. That's the last thing 1169 01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:29,920 Speaker 1: I was going to ask as well, you're going in, 1170 01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:31,880 Speaker 1: You're you're playing on thanks game. It's kind of cool, 1171 01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:33,400 Speaker 1: you know, you get to do it. And Bills don't 1172 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:34,920 Speaker 1: do it every year, although they've done three out of 1173 01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:37,720 Speaker 1: the last four. It's been fun. Detroit does it every 1174 01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:39,640 Speaker 1: single year and it's a big deal for that team, 1175 01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:42,080 Speaker 1: and they've they're on a three game winning streak as 1176 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 1: and you're gonna go into the same building, but it's 1177 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:47,760 Speaker 1: going to be a completely different crowd, right Yea. What 1178 01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:49,680 Speaker 1: Sean and the coaching steph started to do to get 1179 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:51,400 Speaker 1: your minds around the fact that it's not gonna be 1180 01:02:51,440 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 1: Bills Mofi in there, and it's gonna be the Detroit 1181 01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:57,600 Speaker 1: where you know there He's reminded us are a very 1182 01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:00,000 Speaker 1: very good team. They're on a hot streak right now, 1183 01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:03,360 Speaker 1: so we gotta bring our best and they're gonna give it. 1184 01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:05,280 Speaker 1: They're gonna give us their best, and it's going to 1185 01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 1: be a hostile environment. We just have to go in 1186 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,400 Speaker 1: and just focus on us. How was the environment with 1187 01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,160 Speaker 1: the Bills fans in there? It was awesome. Bills Mafia's great, 1188 01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:15,360 Speaker 1: you know they I saw this sold what was it, 1189 01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:18,760 Speaker 1: fifty five thousand tickets within. That's that's incredible man, and 1190 01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:21,040 Speaker 1: they really helped us. You could really feel the energy 1191 01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:23,480 Speaker 1: they brought us in that stadium. So that's good. Straight Well, 1192 01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:26,840 Speaker 1: good luck on Thursday. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours 1193 01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:29,160 Speaker 1: and hit him straight man. Thank you, guys, I appreciate it. 1194 01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:32,560 Speaker 1: That's Tyler Bass joining us here on one Bills Live. 1195 01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:35,680 Speaker 1: His appearance brought to you by Austin Air, the official 1196 01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 1: clean air provider of the Buffalo Bills. We shift years 1197 01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:41,720 Speaker 1: now to Josh Allen, who is addressing the media at 1198 01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:46,360 Speaker 1: the post practice podium. Josh, no sleeve von the army 1199 01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:50,080 Speaker 1: notice here, where are you in progressing for this injury? 1200 01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 1: Still working through it and just trusting what you know 1201 01:03:52,640 --> 01:03:55,400 Speaker 1: our training staff saying a bit of a walk through 1202 01:03:55,400 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 1: a day, so obviously no chance of contact or anything 1203 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:01,560 Speaker 1: like that. So just trying to get out here and 1204 01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:04,960 Speaker 1: get comfortable without throwing it. Now. Who knows game time 1205 01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 1: if I'm wearing one or not. I guess we'll we'll 1206 01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:12,240 Speaker 1: take that day by day. Injury responsive verses before, is 1207 01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:14,840 Speaker 1: it any harder when you guys have had this spirit 1208 01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:17,680 Speaker 1: stretch of hutting less practice time anyway of just like 1209 01:04:17,960 --> 01:04:20,520 Speaker 1: you personally having that both of those things happened out once. 1210 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:23,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's tough, tough for everybody. I 1211 01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:26,760 Speaker 1: think every team's going through you know, bumps and bruising. 1212 01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:30,520 Speaker 1: If someone tells you the one hundred percent, they're probably lying. Um. 1213 01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:32,960 Speaker 1: So again, I think every every team throughout the course 1214 01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:34,600 Speaker 1: of the season deals with this, and guys deal with 1215 01:04:34,640 --> 01:04:38,520 Speaker 1: it on their own differently. Um. But again, the guys 1216 01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:40,560 Speaker 1: that we've got in the stocker room just with treatment 1217 01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:43,440 Speaker 1: and being professional, um, guys that care about each other 1218 01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:46,280 Speaker 1: and care about them, their shelves and the job that 1219 01:04:46,320 --> 01:04:48,400 Speaker 1: they have to do. So doing things the right way 1220 01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:51,880 Speaker 1: is the most important thing. Making sure that we're you know, 1221 01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:56,520 Speaker 1: getting our blogs prepared for game day at this point 1222 01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:58,440 Speaker 1: in the season, and even at this point in your career, 1223 01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:00,440 Speaker 1: with the number of starts that you've made, how much 1224 01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 1: you new is there that can still be thrown at you. 1225 01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:06,560 Speaker 1: I mean again, I think given each situation, every time 1226 01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:11,240 Speaker 1: you step into a game, the flow of that game, UM, 1227 01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:13,760 Speaker 1: I'd say ninety nine percent of the time, it's going 1228 01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:17,640 Speaker 1: to be a different different flow, a different situation, um 1229 01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:21,200 Speaker 1: than you've seen before. So again, just taking every every 1230 01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:25,720 Speaker 1: play and every moment. Every situation is a learning moment um, 1231 01:05:25,800 --> 01:05:28,760 Speaker 1: you know, to be better equipped when you're in something 1232 01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:32,520 Speaker 1: similar to that next next moment. But again, you know 1233 01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:36,400 Speaker 1: the clock's going to be different. Um, the situation, you know, 1234 01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:39,320 Speaker 1: timehouse that you have, everything kind of goes through your mind, 1235 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:42,480 Speaker 1: especially late late in the game. UM. But again, coach 1236 01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:44,160 Speaker 1: McDermot does such a good job with us here and 1237 01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:48,320 Speaker 1: how we practice those situations, just making sure that we're 1238 01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:51,480 Speaker 1: as prepared as possible when it when it comes to that, 1239 01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:58,000 Speaker 1: um situation or something like it just start for years, 1240 01:05:58,600 --> 01:05:59,880 Speaker 1: But when you went back and love did it more? 1241 01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:02,280 Speaker 1: Is there anything else that stood out of anything they 1242 01:06:02,280 --> 01:06:07,120 Speaker 1: were doing effectively or anything that you guys diagnosed. I 1243 01:06:07,120 --> 01:06:09,320 Speaker 1: think it really just comes down to, you know, beating 1244 01:06:09,320 --> 01:06:12,600 Speaker 1: ourselves and um, you know, whether it's you know, a 1245 01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:16,920 Speaker 1: bad decision by me or hand placement there and a 1246 01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:20,240 Speaker 1: penalty there. Um. You know, we understand that we've got 1247 01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:21,439 Speaker 1: to be better and we want to be bed every 1248 01:06:21,440 --> 01:06:23,320 Speaker 1: time we step on that field. You know, we want 1249 01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:25,800 Speaker 1: to score score touchdown. But I think at the end 1250 01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:27,640 Speaker 1: of the day, making sure that we're in and every 1251 01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:30,800 Speaker 1: every drive and a kick um and being you know, 1252 01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:35,200 Speaker 1: playing clean football and just trying to, um, you know, 1253 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:38,880 Speaker 1: give our our defense a better chance. You know, UM, 1254 01:06:38,920 --> 01:06:43,160 Speaker 1: I think playing situational football and complementary football obviously, that's 1255 01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:45,800 Speaker 1: what coach MC preaches day in and day out. You know, 1256 01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:47,880 Speaker 1: that's something we can still be better at, something that 1257 01:06:47,880 --> 01:06:51,440 Speaker 1: we're going to continue to to learn from and UM. 1258 01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:52,840 Speaker 1: But again, every time we step out in the field, 1259 01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:59,520 Speaker 1: we're trying to score touchdowns. Nath the plays the borderline 1260 01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:04,200 Speaker 1: risk of making brush quarterbacks the league and making sure 1261 01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:09,280 Speaker 1: that you go up Yeah. UM again, I think given 1262 01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:11,800 Speaker 1: the situation that the game, understanding the flow of the game, 1263 01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:15,600 Speaker 1: how things are going, how their offense is moving the ball, UM, 1264 01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:19,760 Speaker 1: how our defense is playing, you know, how much times left. Obviously, 1265 01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:23,120 Speaker 1: if you're down down by a score two and you're 1266 01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:28,000 Speaker 1: running two minute mode, obviously your aggressiveness and UM, you know, 1267 01:07:28,040 --> 01:07:29,720 Speaker 1: the risk that you take is going to be higher 1268 01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:34,840 Speaker 1: than if you're up by two scores with two minutes left. UM. 1269 01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:36,680 Speaker 1: So again I think that just kind of varies based 1270 01:07:36,680 --> 01:07:39,400 Speaker 1: on each situation. But again, just making sure we're prepared 1271 01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:43,520 Speaker 1: for those situations, going through that in practice and learning 1272 01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:52,880 Speaker 1: from UM game study and situations that we've been like, yeah, 1273 01:07:52,920 --> 01:07:54,919 Speaker 1: I mean, I think sometimes you get into those zones 1274 01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,080 Speaker 1: where it's like I just feel like I can put 1275 01:07:57,120 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 1: the ball whether I want to. Um, my guys are 1276 01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 1: seeing things well out there and they're coming down with 1277 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:05,160 Speaker 1: these contested catches. I think that plays into it, um, 1278 01:08:05,200 --> 01:08:06,680 Speaker 1: you know, quite a bit. But I think the most 1279 01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:09,120 Speaker 1: important thing is just understand the floor of the game. 1280 01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving Day game memory, like from actually playing in them 1281 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:20,080 Speaker 1: the last two if you guys have played it, um, 1282 01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:23,240 Speaker 1: I think the Dallas one obviously, that was the first 1283 01:08:23,240 --> 01:08:25,960 Speaker 1: one that was pretty special. Had a lot of people 1284 01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:29,479 Speaker 1: there from my hometown. Um, you know, they made the 1285 01:08:29,479 --> 01:08:31,040 Speaker 1: trip out, so that was pretty cool having a lot 1286 01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:35,160 Speaker 1: of family. And again, yeah, we don't given our profession 1287 01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:37,320 Speaker 1: and how we've played this game for as long as 1288 01:08:37,320 --> 01:08:41,680 Speaker 1: we've played it in college and high school. And I 1289 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:43,639 Speaker 1: think most of the guys though, we really haven't had 1290 01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:48,120 Speaker 1: that family Thanksgiving or Christmas in a very long time 1291 01:08:48,200 --> 01:08:50,639 Speaker 1: with with everybody, and that just comes with the nature 1292 01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:53,840 Speaker 1: of the business. But again that going back to a 1293 01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:56,679 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, Uh, I had so much family 1294 01:08:56,680 --> 01:08:58,760 Speaker 1: in the Sands, it was it felt like it was 1295 01:08:58,920 --> 01:09:01,519 Speaker 1: kind of a homecoming deal being able to see them 1296 01:09:01,520 --> 01:09:05,760 Speaker 1: after the game and enjoy that experience with them. Do 1297 01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:11,960 Speaker 1: you remember any specific plays from that game that stand out? Um, 1298 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:14,080 Speaker 1: I think everybody remembers the one I just kind of 1299 01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:17,760 Speaker 1: stood still for three or four seconds and threw an 1300 01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:21,280 Speaker 1: inkcut to Cole Beasley. Um, but I think you know 1301 01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:24,080 Speaker 1: that that game with it was Cole Beasley's kind of 1302 01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:26,599 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say revenge game, but it was his game 1303 01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:28,960 Speaker 1: against his former team, and he played played so well 1304 01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:30,599 Speaker 1: and after, you know, in the locker room, the love 1305 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 1: that we had for each other and just kind of 1306 01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 1: having fun with him. Um. You know, the locker room 1307 01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:38,800 Speaker 1: loves that we get to enjoy those experiences together and 1308 01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:43,000 Speaker 1: something that we remember for a long time. Kind of 1309 01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:46,000 Speaker 1: now playing on Thanksgiving but growing up obviously, I'm sure 1310 01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:47,800 Speaker 1: you guys watched it. Just what does it mean to 1311 01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:52,479 Speaker 1: you to play in a game on boasts? Yeah? I mean, um, again, 1312 01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:54,960 Speaker 1: it's another opportunity to try to go one and know, 1313 01:09:55,320 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 1: you know, we're working working hard. The short weeks are 1314 01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:01,840 Speaker 1: are pretty tough in terms of scheduling and guys trying 1315 01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:03,720 Speaker 1: to get their bodies right to play, but it's it's 1316 01:10:03,720 --> 01:10:05,920 Speaker 1: tough for them as well. Um, But no one that 1317 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:10,000 Speaker 1: everybody's you know, sitting at home, probably bellies full or 1318 01:10:10,040 --> 01:10:13,720 Speaker 1: about to get their bellies full, watching watching football. I 1319 01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:15,880 Speaker 1: remember that as a kid the most, whether it's at 1320 01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:18,839 Speaker 1: our house or one of our friend's house, just um, 1321 01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:21,440 Speaker 1: you know, eating as much as possible and watching the games. 1322 01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:25,559 Speaker 1: And yeah, I'm was a huge fan of football. I'm 1323 01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:27,960 Speaker 1: still huge fan of football. So I still remember watching 1324 01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:32,839 Speaker 1: those games as a kid to have some more opportunities. Obviously, 1325 01:10:32,840 --> 01:10:36,320 Speaker 1: any rookies gonna through some stuff. But what this season. 1326 01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:39,160 Speaker 1: I'm just like, you know, how would he's tackle that 1327 01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:41,880 Speaker 1: and gotten about that? Yeah, I mean he's a he's 1328 01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:44,840 Speaker 1: an even killed guy. Um, you know, never too high, 1329 01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:47,479 Speaker 1: never too low. He's playing a lot of big games 1330 01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 1: in his life, so I don't think there's any moment 1331 01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:51,080 Speaker 1: that's too big for him. And as we get continue 1332 01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:53,920 Speaker 1: to get him going, you know, he's still learning from 1333 01:10:54,080 --> 01:10:57,040 Speaker 1: guys like Motor and bringing a guy in like Nahim, 1334 01:10:57,080 --> 01:10:59,840 Speaker 1: and having Duke and uh in the running back room too. 1335 01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:02,519 Speaker 1: He's got a lot of knowledge from um, some guys 1336 01:11:02,520 --> 01:11:04,280 Speaker 1: that have played in this league for a long time 1337 01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:06,599 Speaker 1: and guys that have some serious snap counts in this league. 1338 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:10,320 Speaker 1: So just every every day is an opportunity for him 1339 01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:12,880 Speaker 1: to learn and grow, and the communication that I've been 1340 01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:14,800 Speaker 1: able to have with him in terms of what I 1341 01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:17,120 Speaker 1: see and you know what he sees. Just trying to 1342 01:11:17,160 --> 01:11:18,719 Speaker 1: be on the same page, whether it's in the passing 1343 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:22,120 Speaker 1: game or or in the run game protection game. You know, 1344 01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:24,240 Speaker 1: he's only going to continue to get better and it's 1345 01:11:24,439 --> 01:11:27,599 Speaker 1: been fun to kind of watch him evolve with that. 1346 01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:30,000 Speaker 1: That's a challenge of these short weeks. You guys have 1347 01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:33,040 Speaker 1: navigated it pretty well the last a couple of games. 1348 01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:35,840 Speaker 1: What have you done well to approach the short week 1349 01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:38,280 Speaker 1: and and then have success in the field? Um, I 1350 01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:42,000 Speaker 1: mean I think game plan wise. I think having guys 1351 01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:45,400 Speaker 1: in the system for so long, you know, we can 1352 01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:47,679 Speaker 1: call some of our base stuff and then something stuff 1353 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:50,559 Speaker 1: that we haven't maybe called all year, but it's you know, 1354 01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:52,599 Speaker 1: day one install stuff that we know in the back 1355 01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:53,760 Speaker 1: of our minds that we can go out there and 1356 01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:57,479 Speaker 1: Dorsey feels confident in calling and us to go out 1357 01:11:57,479 --> 01:11:59,880 Speaker 1: there and execute that. You know, we feel like we 1358 01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:02,160 Speaker 1: have an upperhand in that just because of our playbook 1359 01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:05,679 Speaker 1: and how extensive it is, but also how our simple 1360 01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:09,880 Speaker 1: stuff can still work and not just trying not to 1361 01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:12,120 Speaker 1: do too much on a short week and put in 1362 01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:15,519 Speaker 1: too many plays. So that's extremely useful when you can 1363 01:12:15,520 --> 01:12:19,960 Speaker 1: do that. All right, that's Bill's quarterback Josh Allen addressing 1364 01:12:20,080 --> 01:12:25,880 Speaker 1: the media today, and yeah, you know, three Thanksgiving games 1365 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:29,479 Speaker 1: in the last four years, Josh, by the way, two 1366 01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:33,040 Speaker 1: and oh on Thanksgiving Day games. He is three and 1367 01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:37,639 Speaker 1: oh on Thursday games, So pretty good record to roll 1368 01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:42,599 Speaker 1: in with the Lions. Incidentally, Steve, they've lost their last 1369 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:47,200 Speaker 1: five Thanksgiving games, last five. They've won their last three 1370 01:12:47,200 --> 01:12:49,920 Speaker 1: regular season games this season, though they're on a hot streak. 1371 01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:53,960 Speaker 1: They're playing better defense. They run it good, they're one 1372 01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:57,200 Speaker 1: of the best goal to go offenses in football. They close, 1373 01:12:57,280 --> 01:13:00,599 Speaker 1: they pounded in, they play hard for cam to They're 1374 01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:02,240 Speaker 1: gonna come out and punch them in the mouth. So 1375 01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:06,000 Speaker 1: I would I would say, if you're coming out with 1376 01:13:06,200 --> 01:13:08,639 Speaker 1: what a recipe for what this game may look like, 1377 01:13:08,680 --> 01:13:11,360 Speaker 1: I think that the lines are gonna look really, really 1378 01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:14,080 Speaker 1: good at least early. I think they'll come out of 1379 01:13:14,080 --> 01:13:16,360 Speaker 1: the gate really fast. And look what they did against 1380 01:13:16,360 --> 01:13:20,479 Speaker 1: Miami Miami, I think, and almost beat him on at 1381 01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:23,320 Speaker 1: home in front of that crowd on that day on Thanksgiving. 1382 01:13:23,360 --> 01:13:25,160 Speaker 1: You gotta come out and weather that storm. Yeah, you 1383 01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:27,960 Speaker 1: gotta withstand like the first ten minutes of that game. 1384 01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:31,559 Speaker 1: It's like a World Cup match on the road, Brownie. 1385 01:13:31,600 --> 01:13:34,479 Speaker 1: I'll take it. I'll take it. World Cup analogy from 1386 01:13:34,479 --> 01:13:38,040 Speaker 1: Steve Task here. I appreciate your open mindedness for the 1387 01:13:38,040 --> 01:13:40,720 Speaker 1: beautiful game. We have to take a break here because 1388 01:13:40,760 --> 01:13:42,920 Speaker 1: when we come back, we're going to be bringing you 1389 01:13:43,040 --> 01:13:46,799 Speaker 1: Von Miller, who was addressing the media after practice today, 1390 01:13:47,280 --> 01:13:50,800 Speaker 1: the pass rusher extraordinaire.

The Lions have pretty good offensive line. 1396 01:14:19,200 --> 01:14:23,280 Speaker 1: I don't know a few, but seeing him much, I mean, Pak, 1397 01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:26,280 Speaker 1: good young guy and Decker, the two jackos. Just what 1398 01:14:26,320 --> 01:14:28,439 Speaker 1: do you know about those two? Yeah? It was so, 1399 01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:30,120 Speaker 1: it was great. I think I played him before. I 1400 01:14:30,160 --> 01:14:32,280 Speaker 1: think I played him when he was a rookie. Um 1401 01:14:32,479 --> 01:14:34,280 Speaker 1: had a solid day. A lot of respect for the 1402 01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:37,160 Speaker 1: offensive line, Um, a lot of respect for Decker. It 1403 01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:39,479 Speaker 1: seems like every week you come up I'll tell you, like, hey, 1404 01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:41,479 Speaker 1: we gotta we're going to get into the great offensive limit. 1405 01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:44,080 Speaker 1: And you know this high has been you know since 1406 01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:46,519 Speaker 1: we started this, uh this year, and that's what you expect, 1407 01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:48,760 Speaker 1: you know, each and every week in the NFL. So 1408 01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:53,599 Speaker 1: another tough challenge. Um, this, this Detroit A Lions team 1409 01:14:53,680 --> 01:14:56,120 Speaker 1: is is a tough team. You know Laba. You know, 1410 01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:59,080 Speaker 1: um coach Campbell, he's an Aggie, so I'm a big 1411 01:14:59,120 --> 01:15:06,040 Speaker 1: fan of him. Um, big fan of Jared Golfers as well. Um, this, this, uh, 1412 01:15:06,120 --> 01:15:08,479 Speaker 1: this whole team. I don't think the record is a 1413 01:15:08,640 --> 01:15:10,960 Speaker 1: shows a clear indicator of you know, what type of 1414 01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:13,559 Speaker 1: football team that they are. I think they followed their 1415 01:15:13,600 --> 01:15:15,599 Speaker 1: coaches lead. And he's a he's a tough guy for sure. 1416 01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:17,760 Speaker 1: You can see the way they played, you can you know, 1417 01:15:17,800 --> 01:15:19,800 Speaker 1: see how they finished each and every place. So there's 1418 01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:22,600 Speaker 1: gonna be a Horne's nest for sure. And um, we 1419 01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:24,960 Speaker 1: just gotta you know, do what we do, play Buffalo 1420 01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:28,559 Speaker 1: Bills football, and I think will be all right hard 1421 01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:32,280 Speaker 1: with the summer. Did you get to watch it? I 1422 01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:35,560 Speaker 1: saw some clips. Yeah, what do you think of and 1423 01:15:35,760 --> 01:15:38,760 Speaker 1: and do you think that's led to the success that 1424 01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:42,920 Speaker 1: they've had here midway through the season. I think, yeah, 1425 01:15:42,920 --> 01:15:45,360 Speaker 1: they you know, I think they're following that coaches lead. 1426 01:15:45,479 --> 01:15:49,960 Speaker 1: You know, he's a fiery guy. Um. You know Jamal Williams. 1427 01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:54,280 Speaker 1: I saw the clip with him where he uh had 1428 01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:56,920 Speaker 1: an emotional speech, you know, am I right, he had, 1429 01:15:57,040 --> 01:15:58,840 Speaker 1: he had emotional speech when he broke the hood on. 1430 01:15:58,960 --> 01:16:01,639 Speaker 1: I got goose bumps just you know, watching them talk 1431 01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:05,360 Speaker 1: to his teammates because you could just tell that, you know, um, 1432 01:16:05,439 --> 01:16:07,639 Speaker 1: you could just tell that he was so passionate about 1433 01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:10,240 Speaker 1: the game of football. You can always respect that. Um. 1434 01:16:10,240 --> 01:16:11,800 Speaker 1: I want to play with guys like that, you know, 1435 01:16:11,880 --> 01:16:14,680 Speaker 1: guys that live and breathe football and they want to win. 1436 01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:17,280 Speaker 1: So you know, I could definitely connect with the way 1437 01:16:17,320 --> 01:16:19,280 Speaker 1: he's ah, you know, feeling right now and this type 1438 01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 1: of team.

It doesn't 1442 01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:29,080 Speaker 1: even matter about you know, the record, and you know, 1443 01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:32,280 Speaker 1: as they keep progression, I'm sure that the win column 1444 01:16:32,360 --> 01:16:34,320 Speaker 1: will fill up. Something This team is they have, They 1445 01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:36,559 Speaker 1: have a really good team. I can't you really say 1446 01:16:36,640 --> 01:16:42,320 Speaker 1: that or thought right round talent in the running games. 1447 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:45,280 Speaker 1: How different cult is it to prepare for a team 1448 01:16:45,280 --> 01:16:49,080 Speaker 1: that's that's really well balanced. It's it's difficult each and 1449 01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:50,519 Speaker 1: every week. I think each and every week, you know, 1450 01:16:50,560 --> 01:16:52,880 Speaker 1: you get you go against great backs and you go 1451 01:16:52,960 --> 01:16:57,519 Speaker 1: gets great receivers. And that's what makes this league great. Um. 1452 01:16:57,560 --> 01:16:59,519 Speaker 1: You know, just because their ranked here ranked there, I 1453 01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 1: mean like any week they can you know, pop off 1454 01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:05,840 Speaker 1: any week. You know, every team has home run walking 1455 01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:09,280 Speaker 1: home runs.

I 1580 01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 1: mean to sit back and say, the morale is this, 1581 01:22:39,439 --> 01:22:41,960 Speaker 1: and the morale is that. I mean, I'm sure the 1582 01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:44,720 Speaker 1: guys are excited. How could you not be excited? You know, 1583 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:48,360 Speaker 1: we got Josh Allen's defense and Coach McDermott and Bills 1584 01:22:48,439 --> 01:22:50,439 Speaker 1: my fields. They love us to death, and I mean, 1585 01:22:50,439 --> 01:22:52,479 Speaker 1: how could you not be excited to go play on 1586 01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:57,400 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving this week? Plush sharks passing two weeks in a row. 1587 01:22:57,560 --> 01:22:59,880 Speaker 1: It's not quite the standard where you used to hear 1588 01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:03,600 Speaker 1: you guys, expect a lot more of yourself, y'all. Just 1589 01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:05,559 Speaker 1: sre know how to change it up. Now. We went 1590 01:23:05,600 --> 01:23:08,400 Speaker 1: from the morale and positive stuff to well, you guys 1591 01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:10,840 Speaker 1: gave up over three hundred yards. I mean, I got 1592 01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:14,320 Speaker 1: a job to do too, man, But I mean, that's 1593 01:23:14,360 --> 01:23:17,960 Speaker 1: just I mean, that's what it is. I mean, you guys, 1594 01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:20,240 Speaker 1: you guys do a great job and you ask great questions, 1595 01:23:20,520 --> 01:23:24,360 Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, we have. I mean we're just trying 1596 01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:26,639 Speaker 1: to win games, you know, and wins come in all 1597 01:23:26,640 --> 01:23:30,599 Speaker 1: shapes and sizes and you know, and complexions that sometimes 1598 01:23:30,600 --> 01:23:32,720 Speaker 1: they look good. Sometimes you blow guys out, sometimes you 1599 01:23:32,840 --> 01:23:35,320 Speaker 1: just win by one. You don't win them all either, 1600 01:23:35,520 --> 01:23:37,120 Speaker 1: you know. So we just try to go out there 1601 01:23:37,160 --> 01:23:39,719 Speaker 1: and play our style of football. And you know whether 1602 01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:41,640 Speaker 1: that's of course, we don't want to give up you know, 1603 01:23:41,720 --> 01:23:43,439 Speaker 1: plus three hundred yards. You want to keep them down. 1604 01:23:43,479 --> 01:23:44,640 Speaker 1: Of course. I want to go out there and keep 1605 01:23:44,680 --> 01:23:47,200 Speaker 1: them down to one hundred yards. That'd be great. But 1606 01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:50,000 Speaker 1: you know, I think the league averages around three hundred yards. 1607 01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:51,600 Speaker 1: If you keep them right at three hundred yards, I 1608 01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:54,200 Speaker 1: mean you'll be in the top top You're being the 1609 01:23:54,240 --> 01:23:56,240 Speaker 1: top five pass in each and every year. So we 1610 01:23:56,360 --> 01:23:58,880 Speaker 1: got another tough challenge this week. Jerry Golf can certainly 1611 01:23:58,960 --> 01:24:02,320 Speaker 1: throw the ball. Gotta a great stable of wide receivers 1612 01:24:02,320 --> 01:24:04,479 Speaker 1: and running backs mixing with that too, tight ends, a 1613 01:24:04,560 --> 01:24:08,000 Speaker 1: great offensive line blocks it up good. Um. Yeah, so 1614 01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:10,160 Speaker 1: it's gonna be another tough, challenging.
