Speaker 1: That got me hundred days. That's awesome. Yeah, Yeah, we're

10
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: gonna we got a lot to do though, Oh my gosh,

00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: we got training camp preseason.

12
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 2: There's still a lot to check off the boxes. So

13
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 2: we got a little break coming up to ahead of

14
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 2: the true season beginning for this team.

15
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 4: OTA's underway.

16
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 2: Like we said, the Bills were back out there for

17
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 2: practices today. We heard from offensive coordinator Joe Brady earlier

18
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 2: this afternoon, and after practice we will hear from some

19
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 2: of the players, which we will air later on in

20
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 2: the show, probably the two o'clock hour. But I wanted

21
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 2: to ask you how your Memorial Day weekend was. Because

22
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,479
Speaker 2: we had Friday and Monday often to do anything fun.

23
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: The rare four day weekend. It was good. I loved

24
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,919
Speaker 1: the free time. It felt like a long time because

25
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 1: you know, when you get in that grind of every day,

26
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: having a couple of extra days where it's not just

27
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: a weekend. It was nice. The weather was a little

28
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: up and down this weekend, but I managed to, you know,

29
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: get a little golf in, get some stuff done around

30
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: the house. Very nice. It was good. I think the

31
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: best part about it was that it was just had

32
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: you know, like on I think it was Saturday. Yeah,

33
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: it's on Saturday. I was thinking, now, I don't know,

34
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: you know, because you feel like you just had two

35
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: days off, you feel like, wow, what's tomorrow? Not only tomorrow,

36
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 1: but the next day. It really felt like a long weekend,

37
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: and I was really thankful for that.

38
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was great.

39
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 1: I did all kinds of stuff. It was you know,

40
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: it was nice, just the extra time just to not have.

41
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 4: To get a long weekend.

42
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 2: You feel like you can get stuff done on your

43
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 2: to do list, and you can feel like you can

44
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 2: relax and enjoy it as much some fun.

45
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 4: That's why I love a long weekend.

46
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 2: I had a birthday weekend, so that was fun. When

47
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 2: to Toronto for an overnight. I love going to cities

48
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 2: and trying new food, trying new restaurants, new drink spots,

49
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:47,839
Speaker 2: and love just getting.

50
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 4: To walk around.

51
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 2: So Toronto is one of my favorite spots to go

52
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: to since it's.

53
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 4: Just a quick drive away.

54
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 2: And I get to rob on Memorial Day weekend every

55
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 2: year because my birthday usually falls on it. But I

56
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 2: also get to call Fourth of July weekend because that's

57
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 2: my wedding anniversary.

58
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: That's good.

59
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 4: I love the long weekend. Yeah, celebration.

60
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: So every time you have, like your birthday and your

61
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: anniversary is always a long week Oh that's smart move

62
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: by you. I thought I was smart. I married my

63
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: wife on her birthday so I can remember it easier.

64
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, and double presence for her, the.

65
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: Double presence exactly, which I'm all about. So yeah, that's

66
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: it's a good move. But the long weekend. I can't

67
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: remember a weekend that felt so long as this one did.

68
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 4: It did feel long.

69
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: It really felt because we were We've been grinding over

70
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: since the draft and free agency and you know, OTAs

71
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: and all this stuff's going on, and you know, because

72
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: people can't believe we do this radio show for the

73
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: football team, even out of season. Right, So we're here

74
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: and to have a long weekend. Now we've taken time off,

75
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: but I took like one day here and one day there,

76
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: same with you, right man. To get all these days

77
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: off in a row. It literally felt like a two

78
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: week vacation.

79
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 4: Good refresher.

80
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: It was nice. I hope everybody else had.

81
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 4: A mini camp and OTAs.

82
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: I hope all of you out there had a nice

83
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: chance to recharge your batteries before we head into the

84
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: hard summer months.

85
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we've got a Twitter topic for you guys today,

86
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 2: What new wrinkle do you want to see in the

87
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 2: Bills offense? If you want to answer that, go ahead

88
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 2: and tweet at us, or you can give us call

89
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 2: it eight oh three five point fifty because the phone

90
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 2: lines are open for you to discuss what you think

91
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 2: you want to see out of this Bill's offense in

92
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty fourth season.

93
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 4: And Steve, speaking of so.

94
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 2: Much going on right now in the off season, we

95
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 2: are in OTA's mandatory mini camp is coming.

96
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 4: Up mid June.

97
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 2: Next year may not look exactly like this, and that's

98
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 2: because the NFL Players Association is considering wanting to change

99
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 2: the off season workout program so the nflpa's working to

100
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 2: finalize a proposal to overhaul the offseason, starting as soon

101
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 2: as twenty twenty five. They would eliminate voluntary on field

102
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 2: work in the spring in favor of having a longer

103
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: training camp ramp up, with players reporting in mid June

104
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 2: to early July. According to NFL network insider Tom Pelisero,

105
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: he reported this on Tuesday morning. A formal proposal of

106
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 2: this is expected this summer. NFLPA has had new leadership

107
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 2: since July twenty twenty three, and what they have done

108
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 2: is try to get feedback from players on adjusting the

109
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 2: off season schedule. Do you like how it is right now?

110
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,160
Speaker 2: Do you like the OTAs? Do you like the workouts

111
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 2: in April? Do you like the mandatory mini camp in June?

112
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 2: And then do like taking a six week break and

113
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 2: coming back for training camp? Or should we change it

114
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 2: up a little bit? And it seems like the majority

115
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 2: is supporting these changes, Pelisero. The NFLPA has consulted medical

116
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 2: and performance experts to create a solution for reducing injuries

117
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 2: and maximizing players recovery time. Under the potential proposal, virtual

118
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: classroom work would still be permitted in the spring, but

119
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 2: no practices until camp. So this change that could take

120
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 2: place this next off season could also be partially due

121
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,919
Speaker 2: to wanting to have a longer off season to recover

122
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: from injuries that happen late in the season in January

123
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 2: or into the playoffs late January into the super Bowl

124
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 2: in February. Think about it, Guys come back for workouts

125
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 2: in April for teams that are going deep into the

126
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 2: playoffs and making it to the super Bowl. That's really

127
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 2: not much time off on your body. And a lot

128
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 2: of the times guys are already working out on their

129
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 2: own end of February early April before they head back

130
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 2: to their respective teams to work out together. In April,

131
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 2: they come back and forth, and then in May, hey,

132
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 2: we're already into Ota. So while they do get a.

133
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:05,679
Speaker 1: A month off a month.

134
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 2: Time, it's not that much time off before you're starting

135
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 2: to get back into football shape.

136
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the players would go for this because

137
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: they The worst part about if you know this, I

138
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: mean all of us have done this. If you have

139
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: two weeks of vacation and you get three here, two there,

140
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: four there, and another couple over here and you split

141
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: it up, it's it's not it doesn't feel like a vacation.

142
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: But if you get all that time off at once,

143
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: it's a lot better because then these guys can can

144
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: actually go do something. And I and I say that

145
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: because I think the players are behind this because they

146
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: want total hands off from the clubs from like the

147
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: super Bowl all the way to training camp. They don't

148
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: want to see anybody. Now, if you want to take

149
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 1: all this ota and mini camp stuff and add it

150
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: onto the front of training camp, that's even better because

151
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: that gives us, That gives us all the way from

152
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: February all the way through to July away do whatever

153
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: we want. Certainly guys will come in and they'll touch

154
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: base and all that, but they don't have to. They

155
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: can just leave. They can go live in you know,

156
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: they can go live in Europe, or they can live

157
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: in South America, or they can live in Mexico. They

158
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: can have a place in Hawaii. They can go go

159
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: do stuff, and some of them and not for nothing.

160
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: Some of these guys want to have other interests like

161
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: these start businesses and stuff like for their post football lives.

162
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 1: They can get that done in a span of months,

163
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: whereas they can't go in and out and in and out,

164
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: in and out and be as effective and their families

165
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,839
Speaker 1: as well. You know, they can leave, their families, can

166
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: go to their off season home and their kids can

167
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: get in the second half of second semester of school

168
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: there and they won't be tied to being in Buffalo

169
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: throughout the school year. Certain that's for older players, obviously.

170
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,679
Speaker 1: I think the players are all about this. Players want

171
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: their free time quantified and chunked. They don't want it

172
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:09,199
Speaker 1: sprinkled over the offseason. They want big, long windows where

173
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,439
Speaker 1: they can go and do things and be away and

174
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 1: take a break. And I think the league is doing this.

175
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 1: We've talked about this and kind of tongue in cheek

176
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: talking about the Tasker Plan. I think they're moving towards it.

177
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: They're gonna have eighteen game regular season. There's just no

178
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: way around it. They're gonna have that, and it's gonna

179
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: be sooner rather than later. And that just means they

180
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: can start training camp a little earlier, knock off one

181
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: of the preseason games. Actually, with an eighteen game schedule,

182
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: in two preseason games, everything is exactly the same. It's

183
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: exactly the same as it has been. You just start

184
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: training camp, you know when you need to for that

185
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: opening weekend right after Labor Day. It's coming. It's gonna

186
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 1: come full circle as it really is, and the players

187
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 1: just want to say in it and then they'll get it.

188
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 1: I mean that the legal I think the league will

189
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 1: as long as everybody, all the teams do the same thing,

190
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: the league will bend to the players wishes in this regard.

191
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: They do not care they're not making any money off of.

192
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 2: This could also be used as a negotiating tactic for

193
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 2: an eighteen game season. Players say, hey, we're not signing

194
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 2: off on this until we also get our new off

195
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 2: season plan.

196
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,599
Speaker 1: That's exactly right. You give us this, We'll give you

197
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: eighteen games if you give us our off season back

198
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: and that, and it'll happen. It makes a lot of sense.

199
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: And because from the owner's standpoint, what do they care?

200
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,839
Speaker 1: And everybody's going to be doing the same thing in

201
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: the off season anyway, the game's not going to be

202
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 1: affected by it. Let them have their off season. It's

203
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: always been coaches and the coaching staffs who say, we listen,

204
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 1: if I can get these guys in here a little earlier,

205
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: we can get a head start and.

206
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 4: We can I want to see my players.

207
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: And you know, they kind of sell this thing like

208
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: we can win games in September by doing this in May,

209
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,559
Speaker 1: and players have always been rolling their eyes at that, right.

210
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 2: So yeah, to that point, though, is it more effective

211
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 2: to have guys here from maybe end of June to

212
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 2: early July on through the season beginning where you're getting

213
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 2: them a few times a week consistently rather than, Oh,

214
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 2: you're back in April and then you go home for

215
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 2: a little bit, and then you're back in May, and

216
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 2: then you go home for a little bit, and then

217
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 2: you're back in June, and then you.

218
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:24,839
Speaker 4: Have six weeks off.

219
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 2: And in that six week time period where these guys

220
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 2: are not in the building, how much, especially for new

221
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 2: players or players learning a new playbook, how much of

222
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 2: that is forgotten a little bit when you want to

223
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 2: focus on your family in that six week time period

224
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 2: because you're getting ready for a new season and that's

225
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 2: the last bit of time you get to soak up

226
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 2: truly with your family. And how much within that six

227
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 2: week time period do you get back out of football

228
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 2: shape if you're traveling and if you're doing things that

229
00:11:58,559 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 2: you know.

230
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,199
Speaker 4: Somebody with a family.

231
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: Would do, Whether it's one of the things that happen.

232
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 2: Taking your kids places, vacationing, you're not as focused on football.

233
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 2: So is it just better for the coaching staff then

234
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 2: to say, see it at the end of the season

235
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 2: and then we'll see you back here in June, where

236
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 2: you're going to get consistent time with me and we're

237
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 2: not going to go back and forth, back and forth

238
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 2: and then have to rehash these plays that you should

239
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 2: know because we've gone over them already, but you had

240
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 2: a six week break and now we have to kind

241
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 2: of start from square one.

242
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 1: Absolutely, and it's true. But here's the thing as well.

243
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: If we've learned anything over the past five or six

244
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: years since twenty twenty, is that we can do a

245
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 1: lot of things online that we couldn't do before. The

246
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: technology is there now, that's true. They'll have remote meetings,

247
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: they can install plays and stuff. You can't really be

248
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: there and practice it together, but certainly you can get

249
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:56,559
Speaker 1: their minds around what they know. But one of the

250
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: key parts about this is the players want them that

251
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: off season expanded as much as they can. The coaches

252
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 1: obviously want it contracted. And let me just say this,

253
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 1: it's my belief ownership They could not possibly care less.

254
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: They could not possibly care less when you show up,

255
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: get training camp, get these preseason, let's get this game.

256
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,839
Speaker 1: This season kicked off because it's the season where the

257
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: owners make money. They make money on games and TV rights.

258
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: They don't make anything on OTA's and mini camps. Now,

259
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: if that changes, maybe we'll have a different conversation. But

260
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: that's the way it's gonna be. So the owners could

261
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,839
Speaker 1: not possibly care less about giving them players. Yeah, give

262
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,959
Speaker 1: them a couple extra weeks in the off season. Yeah, sure,

263
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: and the coaching staff will get what about the decision

264
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: to shut up? Give it to them because we're gonna

265
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: get an eighteen game schedule out of it. You know,

266
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: we're gonna get a ton of more money. You know

267
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen. There's nobody who cares more about the

268
00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: off season than the players because it's an off season. Coaches,

269
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 1: they're trying to get a headstart on everybody. If they're

270
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,679
Speaker 1: able to get the guys in, they know that there

271
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 1: is some benefit from it, even if it's a six

272
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: week increments. But if you everybody starts is a total blackout.

273
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 1: You know, no income, no interaction, no coaching, no on field. No,

274
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: none of that stuff all the way until like July

275
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: fifteenth or July first or whatever. As long as everybody's

276
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 1: on that page, the coach will be let's go, we'll

277
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: figure it out, and they'll go from there. That that

278
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: to me, This to me is a no brainer. It's

279
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 1: a no brainer. The Players Association will put it together

280
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: a nice PowerPoint presentation. They'll give it to the owners,

281
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: and the owners will the owners will pretend to listen,

282
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 1: and then they'll say, yeah, that sounds really great, guys,

283
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 1: except we need eighteen game schedule, and the and the

284
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 1: players you will say okay, if you take one of

285
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: the preseason games off and we only have two preseason games,

286
00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: the unals will say okay, now, the presto change o.

287
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: It's it just seems too easy to me. And I

288
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: know there's like nine thousand things that I don't know

289
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: about that are gonna have to be considered. But man,

290
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 1: oh man, in the big picture, the Players Union is

291
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: striking the exact right time to make sure this happens

292
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: because of the eighteen game carrot that is there for

293
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: the owners.

294
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 2: If something like this happens, the only thing that I

295
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 2: would think would stay as is in the offseason in

296
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 2: terms of players coming in for something would be rookie

297
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 2: mini camp. I could still I could see rookie minni

298
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 2: camp still being two weeks or a week right after

299
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 2: the draft, so you can at least get the rookies

300
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 2: in here for a couple of days and then you

301
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 2: truly break.

302
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: It could be that, or it could be that the

303
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: rookies come in five days before the vetans in July.

304
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: You can do that any time. The building's not just

305
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: you know, it's not going to appear out of nothing.

306
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: It's here, have it whenever you want. But you could

307
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: have the rookies come in a week two weeks before

308
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: the regular the veterans coaching staff gets their hands on them,

309
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: starts running them through some stuff, and and and no

310
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: holds barred, let them put them in pads, all that stuff.

311
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 1: I don't care. Get them out there, do whatever you

312
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: want for two weeks. But the ramp up once the

313
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: veterans get there needs to be gradual and and in

314
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 1: such a way as to do everything they can to

315
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: make sure nobody goes overboard. And all of a sudden,

316
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: you got six guys with hamstrings or three guys with

317
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: a knee blown knees or four broken ankles, all that

318
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: stuff that happens in a training camp when guys start

319
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: to go too fast and these guys are going a

320
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: little slower and this guy's going a little too fast

321
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: and those guys are going faster pace than these guys

322
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: as and that clash between that gets guys hurt. You

323
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: got to bring them along all along slow and that's

324
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 1: the whole point of the exercise. And that's where injury

325
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: prevention and all that sports science that has been accumulated

326
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: over the decades comes into play because they know they've

327
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: seen it, you know, for one hundred years in the NFL,

328
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: why guys get hurt, and what time of year they

329
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: get hurt, what's going on when they get hurt. They've

330
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: got all that data and you got to put it

331
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: to use.

332
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 2: Now, you played with teams and played in the NFL

333
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 2: during a time where training camp seemed like it was

334
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 2: three months long and you had like a basic full

335
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 2: season of preseason games before you had your regular season.

336
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 2: Does this proposal have any shades of what you guys

337
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 2: went through where training camp was a lot longer. Now,

338
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 2: I know two a days is not going to be

339
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:34,119
Speaker 2: part of it. I know you're not going to be

340
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 2: putting the pads on really early, but is this reminiscent

341
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,199
Speaker 2: of your playing days and what the offseason looked like

342
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 2: for you guys? And because of that, could you see

343
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 2: there being any pushback maybe after a couple of years

344
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 2: and it's like, Oh, this is too much, this is

345
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 2: too condensed, this is too much work that we're doing

346
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 2: in a two month period to get ready for the season.

347
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 1: It's interesting because we never really had many We did

348
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: have OTAs and many camps, and they they started to

349
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: get designated as different things after the CBA, after the

350
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: nineteen the eighty seven players strike, things started to get

351
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: designated a little differently, where there's OTAs or mini camps now.

352
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 1: There was a difference also when I first came into

353
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: the league, there was when teams could only bring eighty

354
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 1: five or ninety guys to training camp. Before that it

355
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 1: had been one hundred and ten. It was limitless, you

356
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 1: bring two hundred guys if you wanted to, and teams

357
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: brought well over one hundred players to training camp because

358
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: for a while they had had six preseason games. So

359
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 1: you know, then when I came in, it was four

360
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: preseason games, and that seemed like a long time to

361
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: be playing games on top of two a day practices

362
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 1: in full gear pads, tackling the whole thing. It was

363
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 1: really brutal. And then players started in the steroid era.

364
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: Hit players started to get bigger, heavier, faster, which meant

365
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: more velocity and more momentum and more chance for injury

366
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: because you had to be of a certain body typed

367
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 1: to even withstand the collisions. So that started to get

368
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 1: guys hurt quick. So some guys were on steroids, some

369
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 1: guys weren't, and you could tell the wane. You could

370
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: tell the difference, And so that evolved the game very

371
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 1: quickly in the offseason, and team starts saying who whoa, whoa, whoa,

372
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: whoa whoo. You know something's going on here, and so

373
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 1: they they reacted to that in the in the coming years.

374
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 1: This is it's. It really evolved fast. After the eighty

375
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 1: seven players strike and the players union decertified, came back,

376
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: and when the league got free agency and you started

377
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: having co mingling of off seasons and players from other

378
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: teams saying, hey, this is wrong, you guys can't do

379
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,959
Speaker 1: it like this, and this guy can't you know and say, well,

380
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 1: we used to do it like this over at this

381
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: other team, and they were going, oh, my gosh, that's brilliant.

382
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 1: And so they started cross pollinating players' opinions to other teams,

383
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 1: and the Union got even more well informed about what

384
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,719
Speaker 1: players really wanted in the discrepancies between teams because it

385
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 1: was all very very secretive back in the day. It

386
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 1: was all esoteric. It was all a mystery of what

387
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: other teams did because it was all this, you know.

388
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 1: And so now that it's kind of all opened up,

389
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: they can they can you know, standardize what's going on

390
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: way more effectively than they could in the past. And

391
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: I think it's the league is better for it, no question.

392
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 1: Took a while to get there. So yeah, this this

393
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 1: is something that has been in brewing for a long time,

394
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: and the preseason and the offseason has always been maybe

395
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: the last bastion of player opinion of where it really mattered.

396
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 1: Because we've seen it today where Jamar Chase and t

397
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 1: Higgs they show up they're like, you know what, I'm no,

398
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 1: I don't care, I ain't doing it.

399
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 2: And there's older players, veteran players in the NFL who

400
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 2: believe I'll show up during training camp when it matters

401
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 2: to me. If I've been on a team four five

402
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 2: plus years and there hasn't been a change at OC

403
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 2: or DC, and I truly believe that I can get.

404
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 4: Into football shape on my own.

405
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 2: I don't need to be here for OTA's, I don't

406
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 2: need to be here for mini camp. I can show

407
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 2: up for training camp and get myself ready in that

408
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 2: time period.

409
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 1: Hey, these guys got a life, and they also have

410
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 1: outside business dealings because they're making so much money doing it.

411
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: And I know it's a two age sword. If they're

412
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: paying them all this money, they should be able to

413
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: tell them when to be in there. Okay, there is

414
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 1: some of that, no question. But because they're paying them

415
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 1: all this money, these guys have got responsibilities that go

416
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,160
Speaker 1: beyond themselves. I mean they got now, they've got employees,

417
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: you know, they got they got their own businesses they're

418
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 1: trying to maintain and want to and want to propagate

419
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 1: after they're done playing football. You know, like Omaha Productions,

420
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: you know, with Peyton and Eli manning those it's a

421
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,159
Speaker 1: it's a huge business endeavor and they're guys like that

422
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:16,199
Speaker 1: all over. They want to do that and there's the

423
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: problem is when the league says, hey, we're paying you

424
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: all this money, we want you in here, and we

425
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: want you to do this, the players are like, we'll listen.

426
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 1: They've got the other edge of that is listen, we'll

427
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: come in. But what are you gonna do when I

428
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: blow my knee and you're paying me twenty million dollars

429
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: and I'm sitting you know, because it's a real thing.

430
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 1: It's a real thing. I just think the easier they

431
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 1: take it on these players, the longer time than it

432
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: is a risk, the longer time they give them the

433
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,199
Speaker 1: players off, the more chances you're gonna get guys, not

434
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: a lot, but guys who do eat chips and play

435
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: video games all off season, right, and they're gonna show

436
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,719
Speaker 1: up fifty pounds overweight and they're gonna eat themselves out

437
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: of lead. But those are guys you know, you got

438
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 1: to know before you hire him that that might happen. Ye,

439
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 1: it works both those ways. It's a and I get

440
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: it too. And I've you see a guy making fifteen

441
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: million dollars a year, life changing money for one year

442
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 1: of work, it's hard to have sympathy for him. Wanting

443
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: from February till July off it. I get it, you

444
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 1: know that. I mean, come on, bro, they're paying you

445
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 1: fifteen million dollars. Show up for work, you know, because

446
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 1: listen to all of us. You know, you go get

447
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,640
Speaker 1: coffee that that same little little guy or that little

448
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,719
Speaker 1: girl is behind that window of Tim Hortons. Every day

449
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 1: they show up for work and they ain't making fifteen

450
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: million bucks. You know, show up for work. There's a

451
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: lot of that, and it may come to the point

452
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: where and I listen, if we're paying you this this

453
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: place is like this place. I say, this place, this building.

454
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: Why isn't the Buffalo Bills train, any facility open three

455
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty five days a year and these guys

456
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 1: in here all day, every day getting better together. It's

457
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: nothing more than tradition. There's no there's no reasons set

458
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: if I'm paying you for if I'm paying you Josh

459
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 1: Allen forty two million dollars, if I'm paying you nine

460
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars, You're gonna be here and you're gonna

461
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:23,719
Speaker 1: be here every day. You know, there's a little bit

462
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 1: of that in there. You know that, because think about it,

463
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: there's no other there's no industry other than athletics where

464
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,440
Speaker 1: just because we're not playing games, we turn you loose

465
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: so you can go do whatever you want take the

466
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 1: money with you.

467
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 2: Yep, there's something in that different league nowadays, with the

468
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 2: science and research that's been put into players, the wear

469
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 2: and tear on bodies, and how much time is truly

470
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 2: needed in the off season to rest, reset and get

471
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,400
Speaker 2: your body ready to get.

472
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 4: To have to deal with.

473
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 2: The wear and tear of an NFL season getting tackled.

474
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: It's different going through.

475
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 2: Stretches of three games and twelve days weather cold weather,

476
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 2: hot weather.

477
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: Think about this too. It's so difficult and this is

478
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,239
Speaker 1: a real thing and I and I witnessed it in

479
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:25,439
Speaker 1: my own career with other guys, and you get to

480
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: a point it's the league asks everything of you. You've

481
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 1: got to pour your whole emotional preparation and your whole

482
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: heart and soul, and you really treat games like their

483
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 1: life and death, even though they're usually not. Most teams

484
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 1: have mental health officers on staff now, people who because

485
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 1: they know it's hard. It's hard to give yourself up

486
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 1: like that physically. You know you're gonna get hurt, you

487
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 1: know you're gonna it's gonna hurt. You know, you're gonna

488
00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: be uncomfortable. You know that you play the game and

489
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: you know that you're friends guys that you love and respect.

490
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: This big family atmosphere that we feel like we have

491
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 1: and in locker rooms and healthy locker rooms, that's exactly

492
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 1: what it is. You feel a real sense of camaraderie

493
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: and brotherhood and you really it really lays a big

494
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 1: burden on you when you know you're not one hundred

495
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 1: percent physically and you feel like you have to be.

496
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: And because of that, guys fly away in the off season,

497
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: they go far far away. They can't. They just need

498
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,400
Speaker 1: a break there is that is a real thing. And

499
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 1: you know and these mental you know doctor Lex, you

500
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 1: know doctor Dez, doctor Dez in the in the building.

501
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 1: I mean they're patrolling all and they're watching people all

502
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 1: the time, making sure nobody's you know, showing signs of

503
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: being too much for them. And I think it's a

504
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 1: good thing, but it's real because this is it is

505
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: a game that choose you up. So it's so this

506
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:08,400
Speaker 1: off season rest and this limited off season and then

507
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: you know, getting it all and just going one hundred

508
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 1: miles an hour in July. There's pluses and minuses, but

509
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 1: you can I can see both sides of the coin.

510
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,160
Speaker 4: And you can always go back.

511
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 2: You know, if you test out this new model over

512
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,919
Speaker 2: the next couple of years and it doesn't work.

513
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 4: Out, hey you shift it back.

514
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 2: The off season can be tinkered with, it can be adjusted,

515
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 2: and you're not gonna You're not gonna have to suffer

516
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 2: too much. You're not missing out on things from readjusting

517
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,920
Speaker 2: an off season to hey, let's let's stack everything in

518
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 2: June and July versus across April and May and June.

519
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 4: So right, if this is if.

520
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 2: The players believe that this will help them when it

521
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 2: comes to getting ready for an NFL season and being

522
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 2: healthy and staying healthier, I'm all for it because I

523
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 2: believe players safety and play your health is should be

524
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 2: at the top of the list.

525
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 4: For NFL owners, we're.

526
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 1: Talking about March, April, May and June, and for some

527
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 1: players it's February, March, April, May and June. So it

528
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,919
Speaker 1: goes from four to five months completely off or sporadic

529
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 1: visits where you're on off, on off and travel and

530
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:24,199
Speaker 1: travel and traveling. Yeah, I don't I don't know that

531
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,199
Speaker 1: it'll ever get to the point where I was mentioning

532
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 1: where it's going to be. The guy's going to be here,

533
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 1: and if you're a Buffalo bill, you live in Buffalo

534
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 1: for your entirety of your career. You never leave anywhere else.

535
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 2: I don't think that's going to happen.

536
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: As long way off. But yeah, I think the only

537
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 1: reason it is that way is just because of the

538
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 1: tradition and the fact that, yeah, it would be just

539
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: as costly to have them in here working every day

540
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 1: as it would be during season. You know, where you

541
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: feed them and you do all that stuff and the staff,

542
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 1: and if they were here.

543
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 2: That twenty four to seven, they'd be asking for more money.

544
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 1: They would, Yeah, for sure, Well the and the money

545
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,959
Speaker 1: is going to be there. Yeah, they're not. They're not

546
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: going broke. We'll see. It's interesting though, that the league

547
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 1: continues to evolve and these big things are big. The

548
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 1: players union and the owners, you know, getting together. That's

549
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: that's Glacier type stuff moving. I mean, that's big things.

550
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 4: And people care.

551
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 2: I mean, we just spent thirty minutes talking about an

552
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 2: off season change.

553
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 4: The NFL is mega, it is.

554
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 1: Huge, But this is for an old player like me.

555
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: I get it, man. This is this is This is

556
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: like earth shaking kind of foundational differences.

557
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 4: It affects our off season two, Yeah, it does does.

558
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 2: We're gonna take a break, but when we return, we're

559
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 2: gonna air some Joe Brady sound from earlier today. He

560
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 2: spoke with media about the offense, some new pieces, and

561
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 2: what he's expecting out of the Bills in.

562
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 4: The twenty twenty four seasons.

563
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 2: So don't go anywhere here on One Bills Live, We're

564
00:29:54,680 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 2: presented by Coladahealth on Buffalo Bills Radio. We're back here

565
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 2: on One Bill's Live. We've got a Twitter topic for

566
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 2: you today. What new wrinkle do you want to see

567
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 2: in the Bill's offense this season? You can tweet at

568
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 2: us or give us a call at eighth three, five

569
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 2: point fifty. We will be reading off some of those

570
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 2: answers later on in the show. We'll also hear from

571
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:34,239
Speaker 2: Don't Kincaid and I Believe Kaloshakir, who are addressing the

572
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 2: media right now after Ota practice. We also wanted to

573
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 2: get to Joe Brady because he spoke to the media

574
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 2: earlier this afternoon, so we have a couple soundbites that

575
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 2: we pulled that we wanted.

576
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 4: To discuss with all of you.

577
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 2: So first SoundBite, he talked about having an entire off

578
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:56,959
Speaker 2: season to prepare for this season and getting to put

579
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 2: the Joe Brady wrinkle on the offense. So here's what

580
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 2: Joe Brady said about having a whole off season to

581
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 2: really tweak this offense into what he wants it to become.

582
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 5: You know, only time will tell. Look at the end

583
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 5: of the day, Uh, this is Josh Allen's offense, right, Like,

584
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 5: you're gonna you're gonna put together the offense around the

585
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 5: guys that you got. So for us to just say, hey,

586
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 5: we're just gonna scrap everything and uh, you know everything

587
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 5: was broken, that wasn't the case, right, and so you

588
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 5: know there'll be some elements of things that I believe in,

589
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 5: but uh, it's more of like, tell me who we

590
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 5: have on our football team and the guys and what

591
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 5: they can do well, and we're gonna We're gonna.

592
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 4: Do that, all right.

593
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 2: That was Joe Brady on what he envisions for the offense,

594
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 2: having a full off season to put his own touch

595
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 2: on it. And one thing that I really liked about

596
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 2: what he said there was the fact that, hey, this

597
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 2: is not Joe Brady's offense. This is Josh Allen's offense,

598
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 2: and I want to also implement player strengths within this offense.

599
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 2: It seems like he is the type of offensive coordinator

600
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 2: that is truly taking feedback from his players and truly

601
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 2: wants to hear their ideas of what you want something

602
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 2: to look like. You hear about offensive coordinators being player coaches,

603
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 2: but I really believe this is true with Joe Brady

604
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,720
Speaker 2: in that he wants to hear from other players and

605
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 2: he wants to build an offense that supports what players

606
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 2: want to do.

607
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he kind of said the quiet part out loud,

608
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 1: where you know, offensive coordinators around the league will tell

609
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: you know, he's the offensive coordinator's my offense doing the quarterbacks,

610
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 1: particularly the Josh Allen level of quarterbacking, it's their offense.

611
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 1: And when you get into meetings and you get into

612
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: installing stuff and you get into what the quarterback likes

613
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: to run, the offensive coordinator starts to get to know

614
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: that extremely well. And I've heard countless conversations from elite

615
00:32:54,640 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and guys who've been around those guys tell you

616
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: how those dynamics go quarterback. It used to quarterbacks coach

617
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: is the guy who goes from the quarterback to the

618
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator and says, I don't like that, that, that,

619
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 1: and that. Get it out. So the quarterback doesn't have

620
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 1: to go to the coordinator himself. Uh, that's the coordinator.

621
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 1: The quarterback coach then goes from the coordinator to the

622
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 1: to the elite quarterback and says, listen, man, we got

623
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 1: to have this in because here's what they're doing. We

624
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 1: need this and this and this, and then that conversation

625
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: goes on. It's an argument going on between elite quarterbacks

626
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 1: and offensive coordinators that the quarterbacks coach has to facilitate.

627
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 1: And I say argument, you know, kind of that's a

628
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 1: little exaggeration, but quarterbacks don't like to run certain stuff,

629
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: and they all have this kind of attitude like I

630
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 1: ain't gonna run it. And famously, the famous one I

631
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: heard about John Elway in the court in the in

632
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, the one where he gets cartwheeled and

633
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 1: spin wheeled when he's going in When they win the

634
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 1: Super Bowl against I think it's Green Bay or maybe

635
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: it's their second Super Bowl, and I can't remember who

636
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 1: they played maybe it was, I don't know who was,

637
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:07,040
Speaker 1: but John Elway famously takes that ball, drops back and

638
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 1: takes the ball around the end ties to dive for

639
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: the first down and then gets cartwheeled. He told them

640
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 1: during the week, Mike Shanahan, he said, if you call that,

641
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna run it, meaning he's not gonna throw

642
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,959
Speaker 1: that pass. And in the game he didn't. He took

643
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:25,800
Speaker 1: off and ran and now he got the first down.

644
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 1: But he took the hit to do it because he

645
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 1: wouldn't throw that pass because and he told them all

646
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 1: week he wouldn't have. So that kind of story goes

647
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,720
Speaker 1: on all the time. I've heard stuff about what Peyton

648
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: Manning used to do to Tom Moore, the conversations they had,

649
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,359
Speaker 1: you know. So it goes on at Jim Kelly and

650
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: Ted Marchibroda and Jim Kelly and Jim Schaffner and Tom Bresnahan,

651
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 1: Dan Marino, Jim Dan Fouts throughout. The age is the quarterback.

652
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 1: The offense looks like the quarterback wants it to look,

653
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 1: and the coordinator's job is to give that guy concepts

654
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 1: that he likes with some creativity added some wrinkles that

655
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 1: the defense isn't ready for That's the real challenge of it. Now.

656
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 1: Certainly a guy like Brian Dayball. When you get a

657
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: guy like Josh in he can bring Josh up and

658
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 1: he can kind of facilitate Josh's growth and then and

659
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 1: they become really close because of that, and it's a

660
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 1: different kind of dynamic there at times. But sooner or later,

661
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks gonna say, dude, no, I ain't running that,

662
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 1: you know. And that's where that's where, you know, when

663
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 1: a quarterback kind of gets his feet under him like Josh,

664
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,400
Speaker 1: and you grow to the point where you can say no,

665
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: you know, so you know he's Joe Brady said this

666
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 1: is Josh's offense. He's probably right kind of saying that.

667
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,880
Speaker 1: But no question, Josh has got Joe Brady does a

668
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 1: ton of work that Josh Allen benefits from and it's

669
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 1: a it's a mutual relationship. He is, Yeah, he has

670
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,759
Speaker 1: got a lot of new pieces this year. I don't

671
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:03,960
Speaker 1: know that he knows or Josh knows, exactly what they

672
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 1: want this offense to look like or what it could

673
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 1: look like more accurately. I think it's fascinating though, to

674
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: think about the dynamics that are going to go on

675
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 1: with they got all new players, new skill sets, and

676
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 1: how do Josh's likes and dislikes fit in with that.

677
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 2: Joe Brady also said, this is the time to experiment

678
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 2: with some of these things. This is the time for

679
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 2: guys to come forward and say, hey, let's run this,

680
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 2: or I think I do this really well.

681
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 4: How can we fit this into the playbook?

682
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 2: Because you're not playing games right now, this is the

683
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,279
Speaker 2: time to build things up. This is the time to

684
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 2: put the puzzle pieces together. Joe Brady also said, I

685
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,319
Speaker 2: want guys to come forward now because I want it

686
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,239
Speaker 2: to be easier in the offseason when we maybe go

687
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 2: through a slump and things maybe aren't working like they

688
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 2: used to work. I want guys to feel comfortable coming

689
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 2: to me when things are tough, when the losses might happen.

690
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 2: I want them to be able to say, hey, how

691
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,240
Speaker 2: about we switch this up, how about we do this differently.

692
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 2: So he's laying the groundwork now to leave that door

693
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 2: open throughout the entire season, which I thought was really

694
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 2: cool to.

695
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 4: Hear from an offensive coordinator.

696
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:19,720
Speaker 2: Joe Brady also spoke about the adjustments that this offense

697
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:21,759
Speaker 2: is going to have to make without a player like

698
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:22,959
Speaker 2: Stefan Diggson.

699
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 5: In so you don't just sit there and just say

700
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 5: you're just going to replace a player, replace a scheme

701
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,800
Speaker 5: or you know, targets like you know, every year is

702
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:32,400
Speaker 5: going to be different. And to me, it's the biggest

703
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,799
Speaker 5: thing is just as you're going into it is all right, hey,

704
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 5: what do these wide receivers do well? And let's find

705
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 5: ways to put them in those positions. And right now

706
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 5: we have a lot of newness in that receiver room

707
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 5: and there's so much good and so much excitement with it.

708
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 5: And so I think it's important for us to not

709
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 5: sit there and focus necessarily on like, man, we have

710
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 5: to replace this, We have to replace this more so

711
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 5: as like, hey, you know what every game is, every

712
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 5: season is gonna be different than numbers are never going

713
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,239
Speaker 5: to be the exact same, and let's just figure out

714
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 5: how we can get our players in the best position success.

715
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 2: I love that it adds on to what we were discussing.

716
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,719
Speaker 2: You've got a new wide receiver room full of so

717
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:11,319
Speaker 2: many new faces. It's gonna look a lot different this

718
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:15,680
Speaker 2: season without your number one wide receiver that you had

719
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 2: for the last four seasons. You take that out of

720
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 2: the equation and things have to change, Things have to shift. Yes,

721
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 2: Khalil Shakir is still around, but it's going to look

722
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 2: different in how the ball is distributed. It's going to

723
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 2: look different in the players that are deployed. We saw

724
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 2: Dalton Kinkaid in his rookie season. What does it look

725
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 2: like in year two for that tight end? What does

726
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 2: it look like for Khalil Shakir after he had a

727
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,840
Speaker 2: great finish to last season, He's still a player who's

728
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 2: early in his NFL career. Joe Brady also said, I

729
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 2: love the juice about the wide receiver room right now

730
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,440
Speaker 2: because of the way they go about working, the way

731
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 2: they go about practicing. There is no guy who's at

732
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,239
Speaker 2: the top of the list the wide.

733
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 4: Receiver one right now.

734
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 2: So everybody, I believe is pushing each other and is

735
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 2: working together to get the best out of each other,

736
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:11,759
Speaker 2: get the best out of the guy next to you,

737
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:16,480
Speaker 2: so that you can come into Week one feeling like, Wow,

738
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 2: we really pushed each other this offseason, and now look

739
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:21,399
Speaker 2: at how we're performing on the field against other teams.

740
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 1: That's right. When guys leave like Steph Diggs, Gabe Davis

741
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 1: and as much as you love and respect him, and

742
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 1: much as they played really well for your team, but

743
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 1: at the moment they're off your team, they're irrelevant. It's

744
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,399
Speaker 1: not about replacing them. It's not about you know, it's

745
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,879
Speaker 1: about doing what you did when they were on the team.

746
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,359
Speaker 1: You make them as good as you can make them,

747
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:43,800
Speaker 1: and that's now you make the other guys who are

748
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: or there, Curtis, Samuel Khalil, Shakir, Dalton Kincaid, Kean Coleman,

749
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,879
Speaker 1: you know, Mac Hollins, you go down the list. You're

750
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 1: trying to make your offense as good as these guys are,

751
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,319
Speaker 1: as good as you can make them. Give them a chance,

752
00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:02,240
Speaker 1: to them a chance to flourish. Let's promote these guys

753
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 1: and their talents. It's it's about turning your eyes on

754
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 1: what you have in the room and maximizing it. And

755
00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 1: that's what it is. It's it ceases to be even

756
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: the statistics from last year are irrelevant. You're trying to

757
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 1: get as good as you can be, as successful, as

758
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 1: successful as you can be. Each and every week and

759
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,320
Speaker 1: every day you're out there, you're trying to get better

760
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: and explore new ideas and new concepts and try to

761
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 1: get these guys to show different skill sets and then

762
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,880
Speaker 1: put them on display on game day. It has nothing

763
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 1: to do with Steph Diggs and Gabe Davis. For as

764
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,560
Speaker 1: much as as great a players as they are, they're irrelevant. Now.

765
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: The guys in the room are who's important. And you

766
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,439
Speaker 1: know that's what Joe Brady said. He said, We're gonna

767
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 1: find out what these guys do, and we're gonna maximize

768
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 1: these guys. And with the athletes and the size and

769
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 1: the skill sets that have already been displayed in other

770
00:40:55,600 --> 00:41:00,240
Speaker 1: places and around the league, there's plenty in that room

771
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,360
Speaker 1: that can be exploited and win a lot of games

772
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 1: and give Josh Allen all the tools he needs. And

773
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: that's where the focus is. Certainly, you can look at

774
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: statistics and transpose them onto these guys. We were doing

775
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:13,240
Speaker 1: that with Chris Trpasso where he said, you know Cole Beasley,

776
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 1: John Brown, Steph Diggs when they the first year they

777
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: came to Buffalo with Josh Allen, they all had career years.

778
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 1: That may happen with Keon. It's gonna happen with Keon

779
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:23,880
Speaker 1: Coleman because his his first year, but it may happen

780
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:27,879
Speaker 1: with Mac Hollins. May happen with Curtis Samuel, It may

781
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 1: happen with Khalil Shakir now that he's gonna be on

782
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 1: the field presumably every down. That's where they're at. It's

783
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 1: about going forward with what you've got rather than trying

784
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,640
Speaker 1: to replace what you used to have, because it can

785
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 1: do whatever you want with the guys you have. It

786
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: doesn't have to look like it used to all right.

787
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 2: That was the sound from Bill's offensive coordinator Joe Brady

788
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 2: discussing the offense ahead of the twenty twenty four season.

789
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 2: How it may look a little bit different without some

790
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 2: pieces like Stefan Diggs and Gabe Davis.

791
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:00,240
Speaker 4: But that doesn't mean it's gonna be bad.

792
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:00,440
Speaker 1: You know.

793
00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:03,439
Speaker 2: Sometimes change is good for the Bills, and we'll see

794
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,839
Speaker 2: if this change is exactly what they need. As Josh

795
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 2: Allen approaches his seventh NFL season, break time for us.

796
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:12,840
Speaker 2: When we return, we'll get to the tweet sheet and

797
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 2: answer some calls. Stick with us here on One Bill's Live,

00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:19,920
Speaker 6: uh to the anchor barn and I'm not going to

817
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 6: use the name, and I think I'm literally giving a privacy.

818
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:25,560
Speaker 5: Hello.

819
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:27,479
Speaker 4: But we lost, but I guess we lost.

820
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:33,439
Speaker 2: But right before before the four got good. Oh, well,

821
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,240

Speaker 2: Let's see see him call right back. Butch, are you

826
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 7: Are you there?

827
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 3: Yeah?

828
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 1: Now?

829
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:49,839
Speaker 6: So much real quick. A couple of things to say. One,

830
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:52,359
Speaker 6: I'm not I was at I went to went an

831
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:55,280
Speaker 6: anchor by this past weekend, and I was a receiver

832
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 6: that was a former Buffalo Gills receiver along I'm with

833
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 6: the current receiver and along with some family. But I

834
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:02,759
Speaker 6: didn't know the receiver had family in Buffalo. I'm gonna

835
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 6: beave this prictic to this family alone. But anyway, I

836
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 6: was sitting there, ordered around that simple round, you know,

837
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 6: ship at the bar, and I was just talking about

838
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:15,480
Speaker 6: the season and the receiver. The current receiver says that

839
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:18,759
Speaker 6: tell the fans in Buffalo, New York, as long as

840
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:23,280
Speaker 6: Josh Allen is here, they would have a problem getting

841
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 6: a wide receiver to play with. This guy. They gave

842
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:29,360
Speaker 6: him a nickname. They called him like the like the

843
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 6: candy bar.

844
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 7: Pay Day.

845
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:36,919
Speaker 6: They called him pay Day and I said, oh.

846
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:38,280
Speaker 4: No, Butcher's gone again.

847
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:42,959
Speaker 6: Are you still are you still there?

848
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:44,680
Speaker 4: We can hear you.

849
00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: They called Josh, So they called Josh Payday. Keep going.

850
00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 6: They called him Payday And I said, why do you

851
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,279
Speaker 6: guys call him pay Day? And he says, because he

852
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 6: says a lot of the receivers they sit in the NFL. Now,

853
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:58,719
Speaker 6: he says, all the teachers that whether they whether they

854
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:02,240
Speaker 6: tell you or not, watches this guy, and their agents

855
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 6: watches this guy. And they said that they ever get

856
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 6: an opportunity to play with them, they guarantee to get

857
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 6: a second PAYO or third pay. And he says, he says,

858
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:12,799
Speaker 6: so they call him his nickname like the candy bar.

859
00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 6: It's payday, And I says, wow, really said yeah, really

860
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,840
Speaker 6: said listen, he says, Tell the fans in western New

861
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:20,399
Speaker 6: York and he says they be you know, they watch

862
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 6: social media as well, and he says that you know,

863
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 6: people have been complaining about you know, Buffalo doesn't have anybody.

864
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,680
Speaker 6: He said, the receivers that we have now are going

865
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 6: to find people are going to find out that they

866
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 6: look forward to playing, uh for this guy in the Buffalo

867
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,239
Speaker 6: Bills because of the Josh Allen. He says, people don't

868
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 6: really know how fortunate it is to have a quarterback

869
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 6: and this guy plays for a top team. You know, hey,

870
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:45,040
Speaker 6: he doesn't have a job, he doesn't have a Josh Holler.

871
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 6: But it was it was very I was very atrigued

872
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 6: that he really said that anyway, I just want to

873
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 6: just say that. And then when you guys interviewed Joe

874
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 6: Brady and Brady's clip came off. Uh, I really understand

875
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 6: about how like you just said Maddie and Steve that

876
00:45:58,280 --> 00:45:59,879
Speaker 6: the offense is not gonna be bad, It's going.

877
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:00,359
Speaker 7: To be good.

878
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,720
Speaker 6: And this goes to my second part about your question

879
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 6: of what new wrinkles I want. If you put the

880
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 6: wrinkles up bubble screens, screams uh, one, two, three out

881
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:13,879
Speaker 6: of his hands, and you will have no problem. You'll

882
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 6: have no problem. I think the office would be good.

883
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,320
Speaker 6: And also the piggyback off what the player said. He says,

884
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 6: just tell the office that we tell the GM every year.

885
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,839
Speaker 6: Just keep drafting offensive linement. He says, that's all you're

886
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:26,040
Speaker 6: gonna need as long as that guy's playing quarterback. Maybe

887
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:27,719
Speaker 6: I'm sorry for the mix up on the phone. I

888
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 6: don't know what was going on. It's raining outside maybyway.

889
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 6: I love you guys, I love the mischief, I love

890
00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 6: W g R. Matt E, Steve, you know, semi regards

891
00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 6: to Chris and the rest of the guys and all

892
00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,880
Speaker 6: the fans out there, I hope you guys are happy

893
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 6: and love you said, everyone is thank you so much

894
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:42,640
Speaker 6: for taking my car.

895
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:44,279
Speaker 4: Thank you, I appreciate it.

896
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:49,759
Speaker 2: But is that a new wrinkle you'd like to see

897
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:50,239
Speaker 2: in the.

898
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 1: R problem with that they we we have long been

899
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:59,320
Speaker 1: absent of a of a classic finger quotes, classic screen

900
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 1: game where the quarterback drops back and it looks like

901
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,840
Speaker 1: the pass rush is gonna crush him, but he drops

902
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,719
Speaker 1: it right over the top of the defensive lineman who

903
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 1: rushing him and the offensive lineman or ahead of the

904
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:10,279
Speaker 1: running back and they take off down the field. They've

905
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,359
Speaker 1: never really gotten that with Josh. One reason I think

906
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 1: is because of Josh himself and the way teams play him.

907
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 1: They got a spy, and that spy sees a screen

908
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 1: because he stays back behind the pass rush but still

909
00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 1: up kind of where he's watching Josh. When you've got

910
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 1: a spy on a quarterback or somebody who's assigned to

911
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 1: guard him, kind of the screen game is out the window.

912
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 1: You can't do it because the guy who's garden Josh

913
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,200
Speaker 1: sees it and is all over it. So that has

914
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:43,319
Speaker 1: always been a problem for the Bills because of who

915
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 1: the kind of quarterback Josh is. Now. The timing stuff

916
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 1: that take the snap, drop back three steps and zing

917
00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 1: the balls gonna a lah the Miami Dolphins with Tua

918
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:56,120
Speaker 1: where the ball's got to come out fast because well,

919
00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,520
Speaker 1: for different reasons in Miami rather than here in Buffalo.

920
00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 1: That's an excellent way to go as well, because it

921
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 1: does force the defense to you know, they're not going

922
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:09,440
Speaker 1: to sack him, which they're not really sacking him anyway. Uh,

923
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 1: But that timing stuff is a great way to make

924
00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:15,840
Speaker 1: a law. It's a long handoff kind of easy throws

925
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:20,360
Speaker 1: balls out of his hand, never takes a hit, easy

926
00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 1: quick gain and if you've got run after catch guys,

927
00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:26,640
Speaker 1: yards after catch yet, guys, it's a great offense to

928
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:30,520
Speaker 1: run and it keeps your quarterbacks punishment to a minimum.

929
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,320
Speaker 1: So that's a good way to, you know, to preserve

930
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 1: Josh's health. For a guy who's that that big a

931
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:40,400
Speaker 1: part of your offense, that's all well and good wrinkle

932
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 1: Those would be great wrinkles, But I still think the

933
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,399
Speaker 1: bulk of your offense is going to be Josh Allen

934
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 1: doing what he does, dropping back and throwing it.

935
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, mixing up the pace of an offense I think

936
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:56,239
Speaker 2: bodes well for trying to trump a defense and and

937
00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 2: get a defense on their on their heels, not knowing

938
00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:03,360
Speaker 2: what to do. You also wear out a defense. If

939
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 2: you're playing a little bit faster, you wear out a

940
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:09,200
Speaker 2: defense a lot quicker. If you're playing one two three,

941
00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 2: throw the ball, one two three, throw the ball, one

942
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,440
Speaker 2: two three, throw the ball, and you're moving down the

943
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 2: field at a high pace. Yeah, I like that, but

944
00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:19,239
Speaker 2: I like mixing it up a little bit.

945
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 1: At the current point of In this current point of

946
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 1: history where we're at with the NFL, the no huddle

947
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:30,160
Speaker 1: quick paced offense is different than it was when back

948
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:33,440
Speaker 1: when Jim Kelly and Thurman Thomas made it famous because

949
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:39,879
Speaker 1: defenses now are so complex and so polished that they

950
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:42,960
Speaker 1: still have the ability to run different defenses even at

951
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:47,480
Speaker 1: a breakneck pace. And back in the day when the

952
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:50,960
Speaker 1: no huddle k gun thing was going on, it simplified

953
00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:56,640
Speaker 1: defenses where they didn't make complicated check calls or check packages.

954
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,360
Speaker 1: They did the same thing overall because we the Bills,

955
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:02,440
Speaker 1: Jim Kelly, Thurman Tummins was just lined up in the

956
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:05,399
Speaker 1: same way, same formation every time, either right or left.

957
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:09,960
Speaker 1: But it's the same formation. Now you go fast paced

958
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:12,279
Speaker 1: and if you can line up in different formations and

959
00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:16,880
Speaker 1: all that and go fast. It may have a place,

960
00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 1: but defenses aren't going to get more simple. They're going

961
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 1: to be able to communicate a defensive call in during

962
00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:28,640
Speaker 1: that time. It's a different brand of offense. So yes,

963
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:31,239
Speaker 1: I like I think that's a great changing the pace

964
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:34,919
Speaker 1: of the offense is a great way to a great

965
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:37,439
Speaker 1: wrinkle to add. So I like that, But it's it's

966
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:39,799
Speaker 1: different these days than it was in the past.

967
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 2: And we've seen this team change the pace of how

968
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:45,960
Speaker 2: the game is played, especially in the beginning of the

969
00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 2: game when they try to go a little bit hurry

970
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:53,200
Speaker 2: up offense to get into things to settle in. We've

971
00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:56,239
Speaker 2: seen Josh perform very well in the beginning of a

972
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,640
Speaker 2: game when you are going a little bit faster. I

973
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:03,719
Speaker 2: remember Ken Dorsey doing that a couple times. It was

974
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:06,080
Speaker 2: I think for the first time. Maybe it was in

975
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:07,719
Speaker 2: the beginning of the game, and then the next game

976
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 2: they did it at the end of the game, and

977
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 2: then the following week they brought it up again. But

978
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,800
Speaker 2: I know it's something that you can't do every single

979
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,080
Speaker 2: game because opponents are different, the defenses you're playing are different.

980
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:21,279
Speaker 2: Some defenses may be able to adjust to something like

981
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:24,120
Speaker 2: that a lot easier and be able to tee off

982
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:28,280
Speaker 2: against an offense who who has a fast paced way

983
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,840
Speaker 2: about things. But we have seen Josh Allen have success

984
00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 2: in playing that type of pace and playing a little

985
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 2: bit more of a hurry up offense. We've got to

986
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:39,320
Speaker 2: take a break, but when we return, we're gone it

987
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:41,719
Speaker 2: to the tweet sheet. What new wrinkle do you want

988
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 2: to see in the Bills offense? Give us a call

989
00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:47,280

Speaker 2: topic for you guys today. Our question of the day

999
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:00,400
Speaker 2: is what new wrinkle do you want to say see

1000
00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 2: in the Bills offense? If you haven't had an answer

1001
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,040
Speaker 2: to that, you can call us at eight oh three

1002
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:06,000

Speaker 4: Fifty or tweet at us.

1004
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,320
Speaker 2: We want to go over to the phone lines because

1005
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:12,200
Speaker 2: Jim from South Buffalo is on with us.

1006
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 4: Jim, how are you doing?

1007
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:16,799
Speaker 7: Oh? Thank you very much. I thought i'd be a hope.

1008
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:20,360
Speaker 7: I'd be out hope for a little while. My question is,

1009
00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:25,560
Speaker 7: I don't know how much Steve knows much about Summer

1010
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:32,759
Speaker 7: Football League, but my question is as not any chance

1011
00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:34,880
Speaker 7: we can give a couple of players in that league

1012
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:39,839
Speaker 7: from the training we see that this guy is doing

1013
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:42,879
Speaker 7: good or that guy, can we pick anybody up from them?

1014
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:43,760
Speaker 4: From the UFL?

1015
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:45,960
Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, do you have anybody in mind?

1016
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:48,719
Speaker 7: Well, no, not, I have to stop in my head

1017
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:53,319
Speaker 7: because because you guys already have ninety people already, so

1018
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,799
Speaker 7: I really didn't think it was possible, and their league

1019
00:53:55,880 --> 00:54:00,000
Speaker 7: already started, but there was a couple of players.

1020
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:03,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, if the guy is if the Bills have a

1021
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,160
Speaker 1: roster spot and the guys available, yeah, I think they

1022
00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:07,960
Speaker 1: can sign him right away from the UFL. I think

1023
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:12,440
Speaker 1: the UFL and the XFL are the say in the

1024
00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:15,840
Speaker 1: same boat. If the guy gets signed to an NFL contract,

1025
00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,000
Speaker 1: I think he leaves immediately or can leave immediately, which

1026
00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 1: is also why it's kind of hard to find a

1027
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,160
Speaker 1: guy from those leaks. If one pops his head up

1028
00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:26,200
Speaker 1: and there's somebody with a roster spot, they'll grab him.

1029
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:31,480
Speaker 1: But yes, I think those guys are are fully in

1030
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:33,839
Speaker 1: the pool of players that can be picked up by

1031
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:36,600
Speaker 1: an NFL team if they have a roster spot.

1032
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 4: Jim, thanks for the question, appreciate it.

1033
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:44,000
Speaker 2: The UFL is getting more pub these days, you know

1034
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:48,600
Speaker 2: UFL and XFL. There are some former NFL players that

1035
00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 2: are playing in the UFL now and who knows. It's

1036
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:55,320
Speaker 2: a great place to scout players. Is it a popular

1037
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 2: thing that happens No? Does that change over time?

1038
00:54:59,000 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 4: Possibly?

1039
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:03,040
Speaker 2: I think if you were to ask scouts and coaches,

1040
00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:06,000
Speaker 2: they would love to have some sort of farm system

1041
00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:09,200
Speaker 2: where they could go to grab players. They have that

1042
00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:12,359
Speaker 2: in the MLB, they have that in other leagues. You

1043
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 2: have the G League, in the NBA, the NHL has

1044
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:18,080
Speaker 2: a boatload of players you can get playing in different

1045
00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:22,200
Speaker 2: leagues AHL and you don't see.

1046
00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:23,760
Speaker 4: That really in the NFL.

1047
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,439
Speaker 2: And one reason could be is because it's hard to

1048
00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:34,239
Speaker 2: find that many players that also have NFL caliber bur

1049
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:36,279
Speaker 2: to them that they can just go from one league

1050
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:38,600
Speaker 2: to the other league, But yeah, I think it would

1051
00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:40,280
Speaker 2: make things a little bit easier.

1052
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:42,920
Speaker 4: You also just have so many.

1053
00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,560
Speaker 2: Good players coming out of college football every single year,

1054
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:48,320
Speaker 2: and it's a little bit different in that in the NFL,

1055
00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:50,480
Speaker 2: you got a guy coming out of college football, he

1056
00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:53,279
Speaker 2: could be the starting quarterback the next season. You don't

1057
00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:56,440
Speaker 2: see that as much in different leagues. In the MLB

1058
00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:59,360
Speaker 2: and the NHL. It takes a few years sometimes for guys.

1059
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:05,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's a relatively I guess, a relatively small

1060
00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:09,399
Speaker 1: pool of players who have shown enough that they can

1061
00:56:09,440 --> 00:56:11,720
Speaker 1: come in and you know, the top of the NFL

1062
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:14,120
Speaker 1: draft out of college. I mean you're talking about guys

1063
00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:17,200
Speaker 1: who are all virtually the same age, within or two years,

1064
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:20,480
Speaker 1: certainly within three years of each other, with rare exception.

1065
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:25,239
Speaker 1: And that's the pool of players that there is in

1066
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:29,520
Speaker 1: the NFL. That's it. Plus, I was told one at

1067
00:56:29,520 --> 00:56:32,279
Speaker 1: one point by NFL executives that they keep track of

1068
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:36,080
Speaker 1: like twelve hundred guys who are fresh out of the

1069
00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:39,040
Speaker 1: National Football League, as well as six to eight hundred

1070
00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:41,759
Speaker 1: guys who are not yet old enough to be in

1071
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:45,080
Speaker 1: the league. That means all the college players. So they

1072
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:49,120
Speaker 1: keep track of about three thousand players in addition to

1073
00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:54,960
Speaker 1: the two thousand players that are in the league. So

1074
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:57,239
Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys to keep track of and

1075
00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:01,759
Speaker 1: to escalate or to you know, to distill yourself to

1076
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:06,560
Speaker 1: the top of that broth of all these guys. You

1077
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,279
Speaker 1: got to do some things in a football league, in

1078
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:13,720
Speaker 1: football games, or be set aside athletically to a certain

1079
00:57:13,719 --> 00:57:15,800
Speaker 1: extent that you don't have to know as much football

1080
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 1: as anybody else because you're such a great athlete. They'll

1081
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:20,560
Speaker 1: plug you in and you'll be able to your athleticism

1082
00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:26,760
Speaker 1: will cover for your mistakes. Those guys are extremely rare. Yeah,

1083
00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 1: that this you know, this pool of player there's not

1084
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,880
Speaker 1: that big a pool of players. I heard one executive,

1085
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:38,320
Speaker 1: a high level person in the ownership level of the NFL,

1086
00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:40,960
Speaker 1: said that their stuff told them that there's just not

1087
00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,720
Speaker 1: enough players on the planet who can play so that

1088
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:47,560
Speaker 1: the league could expand to Europe. There's just not that

1089
00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:51,040
Speaker 1: many guys who can play, So the whole league would

1090
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:55,920
Speaker 1: be bad foot sprinkled bad football players around. They'd be

1091
00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:59,440
Speaker 1: too few of good players sprinkled over, too many teams

1092
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 1: with bad players in them. Uh, they just don't feel

1093
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:07,040
Speaker 1: like the league would be as good because the only

1094
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:09,240
Speaker 1: place you can get players from is the United States

1095
00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:11,960
Speaker 1: at the current moment. Certainly you can find a guy

1096
00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:14,800
Speaker 1: like you know, well, like you know, the rugby player

1097
00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:19,480
Speaker 1: we've got right, and the rugby player we got last,

1098
00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,000
Speaker 1: the running back and I can't think of his.

1099
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:24,160
Speaker 4: On the roster on the defense.

1100
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:29,680
Speaker 1: They're just it's just not that many guys. So you

1101
00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:33,520
Speaker 1: have these leagues like the UFL and the XFL, and

1102
00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:36,800
Speaker 1: these guys are trying to make themselves valuable enough to

1103
00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:41,080
Speaker 1: get a look. But the league kind of look is

1104
00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:43,520
Speaker 1: looking at itself going. The thing that's holding it back

1105
00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 1: from expansion are enough good players to go around.

1106
00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:46,959
Speaker 2: It's not easy.

1107
00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:49,520
Speaker 1: So you know, you have the ufls they're playing football,

1108
00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:51,200
Speaker 1: and it looks a lot like the United States. It

1109
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 1: looks like the NFL at least you know x's and

1110
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:57,960
Speaker 1: o's wise. Same thing with Canada. It's a little bit

1111
00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 1: different game, but very much similar to football. You can

1112
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:03,959
Speaker 1: have Canadian guys come down here and be successful. There's

1113
00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:07,919
Speaker 1: just not enough good players to expand the NFL any

1114
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:09,880
Speaker 1: further than where it is right at the moment, or

1115
00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:11,640
Speaker 1: at least that's the belief we've been told.

1116
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:14,880
Speaker 2: We had a few players speak to the media earlier

1117
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:18,520
Speaker 2: today following practice wide receiver Kol Shakir and tight end

1118
00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:21,000
Speaker 2: Dunkin Kaid. So let's get over to some of that

1119
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:22,680
Speaker 2: right now and hear from Dalton Kinkaid.

1120
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:26,640
Speaker 8: Last week, Josh talked a little bit about the group

1121
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:30,280
Speaker 8: as a whole, pass catchers kind of the mentality inside

1122
00:59:30,280 --> 00:59:33,120
Speaker 8: that room being that sometimes you're just gonna have to

1123
00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:35,320
Speaker 8: take the bus ticket and rod Ward for their team.

1124
00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:37,680
Speaker 8: What do you get the sense of, like just start

1125
00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:40,600
Speaker 8: the mentality inside of other uh?

1126
00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:43,720
Speaker 9: You know, just a lot of selfless guys. Obviously, that

1127
00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:47,160
Speaker 9: room looks a lot different from last year, and I

1128
00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:49,520
Speaker 9: feel like that transition has gone really well in terms of,

1129
00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:52,040
Speaker 9: you know, those guys blending in and messing good with

1130
00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:54,320
Speaker 9: the group of guys we have here and the culture

1131
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 9: all that.

1132
00:59:56,880 --> 01:00:00,360
Speaker 8: How do you feel about having the focus on you

1133
01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:02,640
Speaker 8: a little bit more now that Takes is gone, Dave

1134
01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:05,080
Speaker 8: Davis is gone, You come back as kind of the

1135
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:07,680
Speaker 8: guy from UH.

1136
01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:10,000
Speaker 9: I mean, I feel like we have quite a bit

1137
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:12,480
Speaker 9: of weapons on offense. I wouldn't per se I'm the

1138
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:16,000
Speaker 9: guy and the offense is just gonna go through so

1139
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:19,200
Speaker 9: many people this year that it's gonna help everybody out.

1140
01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:21,959
Speaker 9: You know, we're gonna open everybody up, and with Josh

1141
01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:25,600
Speaker 9: back there, he's gonna get everybody the ball. So I

1142
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:29,240
Speaker 9: think definitely a couple more targets this year, which which

1143
01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:33,240
Speaker 9: will be nice. But our room looks good and the

1144
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 9: the weapons we have an offense is pretty cool.

1145
01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:37,960
Speaker 1: I know it's really early, but.

1146
01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:42,760
Speaker 10: Based on what Joe did for November on with the

1147
01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:46,440
Speaker 10: offense to what is just looking like now, can you

1148
01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:48,920
Speaker 10: give us maybe a organization of some of the things

1149
01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:51,960
Speaker 10: that maybe have changed a little bit since now he's

1150
01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:52,400
Speaker 10: took over.

1151
01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:58,680
Speaker 9: Joe's been awesome in terms of his his mentality and

1152
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:02,800
Speaker 9: his energy every day. Ah, it's contagious, which uh you

1153
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:04,560
Speaker 9: know as an offense as a whole, I think we

1154
01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 9: all feel that, especially come out in practice. But uh,

1155
01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:11,480
Speaker 9: the playbooks changed.

1156
01:01:11,720 --> 01:01:11,840
Speaker 8: Uh.

1157
01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:14,760
Speaker 9: I wouldn't say a ton, but there's there's a lot

1158
01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:17,280
Speaker 9: of changes in tweaks we've made from last year. So

1159
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:21,120
Speaker 9: I think the creativity and kind of freedom he has

1160
01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:23,680
Speaker 9: right now in terms of just testing things out, especially

1161
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:28,520
Speaker 9: in OTAs, is super helpful. Uh, just with our playbook.

1162
01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:31,960
Speaker 9: So I think he's he's getting a lot more comfortable

1163
01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:34,400
Speaker 9: as an offensive coordinator. And in terms of playing uh

1164
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:38,720
Speaker 9: calm plays and you know, creating a playbook around us.

1165
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 11: What would you say in year two physically, has there

1166
01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:46,919
Speaker 11: been you know, what is your emphasis been on? Because

1167
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:50,360
Speaker 11: lack last offseason, you're training for the draft, the draft happens.

1168
01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:52,640
Speaker 3: It's just roller coaster.

1169
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:55,040
Speaker 11: You don't really so now after year one you can

1170
01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:57,360
Speaker 11: really you know, how would you say, is there any

1171
01:01:57,640 --> 01:01:58,440
Speaker 11: much of a change.

1172
01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:01,480
Speaker 3: Some guys changed there, you know, make movements physically in

1173
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:01,960
Speaker 3: your gym?

1174
01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,360
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean last offseason I didn't really get to

1175
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:08,040
Speaker 9: train much until I got here for OTAs because I

1176
01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:11,680
Speaker 9: was hurt. So it I don't want to say it's

1177
01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:14,400
Speaker 9: been more fun, but just being able to participate in

1178
01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:18,800
Speaker 9: workouts and stuff, you know, uh, February March. As opposed

1179
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:20,240
Speaker 9: to last year when I'm just sitting there kind of

1180
01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:23,600
Speaker 9: watching everybody work out and I'm doing my rehab, I

1181
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:26,600
Speaker 9: feel a lot better. And especially being back here with

1182
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 9: and strength staff, it's fun. You know, we compete in

1183
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:34,520
Speaker 9: the weight room, we're competing out here, and as a

1184
01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:36,840
Speaker 9: competitive person, it's it's fun to be surrounded by people

1185
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:41,560
Speaker 9: who were pushing to be better. But I definitely think

1186
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:45,640
Speaker 9: there's a difference in terms of last year in this year.

1187
01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:51,120
Speaker 9: Josh is waving right now, I can see, but yeah, point, I.

1188
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:54,320
Speaker 3: Mean, are you have you put you know, higher goals

1189
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:56,880
Speaker 3: up there for like, you know whatever the main.

1190
01:02:57,840 --> 01:02:59,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean that was a big empasis for me

1191
01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:02,880
Speaker 9: this the off season was getting stronger and faster in

1192
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:06,920
Speaker 9: changing terms of my diet, focusing on that as well.

1193
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:13,120
Speaker 9: So especially being back in Buffalo working with Lady, but

1194
01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:15,680
Speaker 9: being in the weight room a lot more was something

1195
01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:17,040
Speaker 9: I wanted to focus on this offseason.

1196
01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:19,560
Speaker 12: Stay in Buffalo the whole off season or did you

1197
01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:21,680
Speaker 12: go to a couple of places and training like what

1198
01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:22,280
Speaker 12: was that line?

1199
01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:24,440
Speaker 9: Yeah, I was out in California training.

1200
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:26,479
Speaker 1: So yeah, when.

1201
01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:28,560
Speaker 12: You met with Brandon Sean at the end of the

1202
01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:30,920
Speaker 12: season and kind of put together your off season planned.

1203
01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:33,960
Speaker 12: Obviously strength beings something you want to add from a

1204
01:03:34,040 --> 01:03:36,680
Speaker 12: skill set perspective, like what what have you focused on

1205
01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:39,280
Speaker 12: this offseason? Maybe trying to take a jump in a

1206
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:40,080
Speaker 12: certain area.

1207
01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:42,360
Speaker 9: Of your game. Press was a big one for me.

1208
01:03:42,520 --> 01:03:45,840
Speaker 9: Press and man getting better in those facets of the game,

1209
01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:49,600
Speaker 9: especially you know, guys coming up and try to press

1210
01:03:49,600 --> 01:03:51,840
Speaker 9: you slowly off and kind of throw off your rhythm

1211
01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:54,360
Speaker 9: and routes. So that was the biggest emphasis for me,

1212
01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:56,919
Speaker 9: besides lifting weights and getting stronger.

1213
01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:01,360
Speaker 11: Weight wise, what you are you going to target about

1214
01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:03,640
Speaker 11: the same weight for this season is last year.

1215
01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:05,360
Speaker 9: I'd like I like to coming a little bit heavier,

1216
01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:09,640
Speaker 9: especially camp. I feel like most everybody loses some weight

1217
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:11,919
Speaker 9: at camp, So coming in a little bit heavier camp

1218
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:19,400
Speaker 9: is a big one for me. Uh, last year, I'd

1219
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:21,320
Speaker 9: have I'd have to talk to Siano and check, but

1220
01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:24,320
Speaker 9: I was definitely lighter last year as opposed to what

1221
01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 9: I'll be at this year.

1222
01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:29,240
Speaker 12: It's about how many weapons you guys have in this offense.

1223
01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:29,680
Speaker 1: How do you.

1224
01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:34,600
Speaker 12: Balance embracing that with also being like maybe a leader

1225
01:04:34,680 --> 01:04:37,280
Speaker 12: first round draft pick that wants the ball. How do

1226
01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:40,040
Speaker 12: you kind of find the middle ground of you know,

1227
01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:43,160
Speaker 12: asserting yourself in the offense but also playing that that

1228
01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:43,680
Speaker 12: team hole.

1229
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:46,800
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, I think it's just the culture of

1230
01:04:46,840 --> 01:04:48,480
Speaker 9: this team is a lot of selfless guys who just

1231
01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:51,360
Speaker 9: kind of want to win. So that comes with you know,

1232
01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:55,080
Speaker 9: doing whatever is asked of you to help the team win.

1233
01:04:56,000 --> 01:04:56,360
Speaker 4: All Right.

1234
01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,720
Speaker 2: That was tight end Donga Caid, who approaches his second

1235
01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:02,360
Speaker 2: and NFL season, had a great rookie season and I

1236
01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:05,360
Speaker 2: think a lot of us are expecting more out of

1237
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:08,680
Speaker 2: him in his second NFL season. He was asked about

1238
01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:11,520
Speaker 2: that and asked about the wide receivers room and this

1239
01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:14,720
Speaker 2: offense under a new offensive coordator and Joe Brady. He

1240
01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:18,320
Speaker 2: said it's not entirely new, but he said there are

1241
01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:22,160
Speaker 2: a lot of new pieces to the offense, which he

1242
01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:24,800
Speaker 2: spoke about the creativity within it and this is the

1243
01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:27,920
Speaker 2: time to try out new things, which I think is

1244
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,560
Speaker 2: great to hear. I mean, we've heard a lot of Hey,

1245
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:33,600
Speaker 2: this is Josh Allen's offense. Not a lot is going

1246
01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:36,120
Speaker 2: to change, but it is nice to hear from Dalton

1247
01:05:36,160 --> 01:05:38,480
Speaker 2: k and Kaida, a player within this offense, that hey,

1248
01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:41,280
Speaker 2: there are some tweaks to it, and we're working through

1249
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:42,160
Speaker 2: that stuff right now.

1250
01:05:42,240 --> 01:05:45,120
Speaker 1: It's going to be really interesting to see because I

1251
01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:48,919
Speaker 1: there's no question there's enough physical talent in the room

1252
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:53,360
Speaker 1: to accomplish all the hopes and dreams they have, but

1253
01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:55,400
Speaker 1: we have no idea what that will look like with

1254
01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:59,800
Speaker 1: this group. It's rare and I don't know. If there's

1255
01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:01,600
Speaker 1: no other team in the league, well, maybe there's a

1256
01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:04,439
Speaker 1: couple who lost both the number one and number two

1257
01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:08,600
Speaker 1: wideouts in the offseason, I think the Bills would probably

1258
01:06:08,640 --> 01:06:11,520
Speaker 1: be the only one, particularly with a quarterback who's elite.

1259
01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:15,880
Speaker 1: Maybe Baltimore lost a couple of guys. Certainly Obj's not

1260
01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:20,040
Speaker 1: there this year. But this is a this is a

1261
01:06:20,040 --> 01:06:22,520
Speaker 1: group a wide receiver room who's got a lot of size,

1262
01:06:22,560 --> 01:06:25,479
Speaker 1: a lot of speed, and some chops. And I put

1263
01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:29,439
Speaker 1: Kincaid and Shakir probably at the top of the list

1264
01:06:29,760 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 1: of the guys that you can trust to be NFL

1265
01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:33,520
Speaker 1: players because we've seen him do it in this offense

1266
01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:36,800
Speaker 1: with this quarterback in this in this room. But Curtis,

1267
01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:45,240
Speaker 1: Samuel mccolland, yeah, mvs. These guys are like, man, let's go.

1268
01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:48,560
Speaker 1: I mean, this guy's throwing us the ball. Let's get

1269
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:50,840
Speaker 1: me on the field. I think it's going to be

1270
01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:56,000
Speaker 1: a lot of fun to see this offense take the field.

1271
01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:59,040
Speaker 1: And like you said, we had our good friend Butch

1272
01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:02,080
Speaker 1: called the show and say, you know, just wide receivers

1273
01:07:02,080 --> 01:07:04,720
Speaker 1: will line up to play with this guy. Just draft

1274
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:06,920
Speaker 1: offensive lineman. That's all you're gonna need because all the

1275
01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:08,760
Speaker 1: skilled guys will line up to get it in Buffalo

1276
01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:13,720
Speaker 1: to play with Josh. That's pretty good advice. As we've seen,

1277
01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:18,440
Speaker 1: we'll see if but we'll see if it comes to fruition.

1278
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:22,200
Speaker 1: But there's no question this offense is gonna be athletic

1279
01:07:22,960 --> 01:07:24,960
Speaker 1: and fast on the outside, we'll.

1280
01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:29,120
Speaker 2: See Dunt Kinkaid described the wide receivers room as selfless.

1281
01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:33,000
Speaker 2: We've heard other players and coaches describe it as a

1282
01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:36,920
Speaker 2: room where everybody is trying to get better. Everybody's trying

1283
01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:40,840
Speaker 2: to work together, and I think that will translate into

1284
01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:43,880
Speaker 2: watching an offense that is a lot of fun. Joe

1285
01:07:43,920 --> 01:07:47,080
Speaker 2: Brady said, everybody is going to eat.

1286
01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:47,840
Speaker 4: On this offense.

1287
01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:51,880
Speaker 2: We may not see a number one weapon, but that

1288
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:56,760
Speaker 2: may be entirely okay. If you have ten weapons you

1289
01:07:56,800 --> 01:08:01,240
Speaker 2: can deploy at different times where you you are able

1290
01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:04,760
Speaker 2: to throw defenses off and it's harder to scheme for

1291
01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:07,919
Speaker 2: because you're not scheming for just one number one guy

1292
01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:12,160
Speaker 2: and a couple others. You may be scheming for eight

1293
01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:14,560
Speaker 2: players who you have to account for that can be

1294
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:17,639
Speaker 2: used in different ways. And you have some new guys

1295
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:20,280
Speaker 2: a part of this group that you don't have tape

1296
01:08:20,280 --> 01:08:23,439
Speaker 2: on them in a Bill's uniform. All this can really

1297
01:08:23,479 --> 01:08:27,120
Speaker 2: benefit this team in the twenty twenty four season break

1298
01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:29,519
Speaker 2: time for us when we return, we are going to

1299
01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:33,840
Speaker 2: air a Khalil Shakir interview from earlier this afternoon. Khalil

1300
01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:37,200
Speaker 2: spoke to the media right after OTA practice wrapped up,

1301
01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:39,439
Speaker 2: so we'll get that to you after this break. On

1302
01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:41,759
Speaker 2: One Bill's Live or presented by Colidah Health on Buffalo

1303
01:08:41,800 --> 01:09:01,000
Speaker 2: Bills Radio, Welcome Back into One Bill was live about

1304
01:09:01,040 --> 01:09:04,320
Speaker 2: thirty minutes left in the show. The Bills had OTA

1305
01:09:04,560 --> 01:09:08,640
Speaker 2: practice today and a couple of players spoke after practice.

1306
01:09:08,720 --> 01:09:12,040
Speaker 2: Don Kinkaid was one of them. Khalil Shakir was the other.

1307
01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:15,240
Speaker 2: So let's get over to Khalil Shakir's press conference right now.

1308
01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:19,839
Speaker 13: It's funny. It's like every year is I mean changing

1309
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:24,200
Speaker 13: everybody's new people, old people, and I mean this this year.

1310
01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:27,640
Speaker 13: The receiver room obviously is like completely different, but I

1311
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:29,760
Speaker 13: mean everybody vibes, and I mean in my head, it's like,

1312
01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:32,519
Speaker 13: I mean, trying to help as much as I can

1313
01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:34,240
Speaker 13: so we can all get on the same pages. And

1314
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:37,479
Speaker 13: what Josh is thinking as well is huge, So just

1315
01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:40,320
Speaker 13: the communication part. But I guess it's it's it's pretty cool.

1316
01:09:41,240 --> 01:09:43,720
Speaker 11: He thought about the fact that like Steph had I

1317
01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:47,680
Speaker 11: don't know, one hundred and fifty targets, maybe more than

1318
01:09:47,720 --> 01:09:50,519
Speaker 11: they had, and you know, Gabe had another fear. So

1319
01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:55,280
Speaker 11: that's like two hundred passes meet because somewhere else. Yeah,

1320
01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,720
Speaker 11: are you willing to take some of those up?

1321
01:09:58,000 --> 01:09:58,160
Speaker 1: Well?

1322
01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:01,040
Speaker 13: Of course, of course if those come out. I've always

1323
01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:04,920
Speaker 13: been a guy that's just do my job and and

1324
01:10:05,320 --> 01:10:07,280
Speaker 13: do what I'm supposed to do, uh, the correct way,

1325
01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:09,360
Speaker 13: the way they're teaching it, the way we're doing it

1326
01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:11,960
Speaker 13: in preparation, and then everything else will fall into place.

1327
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:14,479
Speaker 13: So for me, it's just always been if I got

1328
01:10:14,479 --> 01:10:15,840
Speaker 13: to go in there and block fifty times, going there

1329
01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:17,320
Speaker 13: and block fifty times, if I got to go in

1330
01:10:17,320 --> 01:10:19,640
Speaker 13: there and run a route, run a go rounte and

1331
01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:22,240
Speaker 13: run off fifty times, I'm gonna do it. I'm I'm huge,

1332
01:10:22,240 --> 01:10:23,719
Speaker 13: And what goes around comes around.

1333
01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:25,800
Speaker 3: But it's still really early.

1334
01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:29,400
Speaker 14: But you sense a difference in what Joe Brady did

1335
01:10:29,479 --> 01:10:31,760
Speaker 14: last year coming in as coordinator and what.

1336
01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:32,960
Speaker 1: He wants to do this year.

1337
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:34,400
Speaker 13: Does it seem a lot different to you?

1338
01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:35,800
Speaker 1: Not?

1339
01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:38,240
Speaker 13: Not as much, I mean as far as Joe as

1340
01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:41,200
Speaker 13: as a person. I mean, he's his energy is insane.

1341
01:10:41,200 --> 01:10:42,760
Speaker 13: He brings the energy every day. He was doing that

1342
01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:47,080
Speaker 13: when he took over last year as well, just the

1343
01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:50,160
Speaker 13: the preparation and the approach that we're all doing is

1344
01:10:50,200 --> 01:10:52,640
Speaker 13: the same thing. And he's a guy that's just you know,

1345
01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:55,320
Speaker 13: very he understands, you know, he understands, especially from a

1346
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:58,920
Speaker 13: receiver standpoint, just everything that's getting put in, everything that

1347
01:10:58,960 --> 01:11:02,040
Speaker 13: we're doing, everything that we're trying to accomplish. So he's

1348
01:11:02,080 --> 01:11:03,960
Speaker 13: just you know, leading the show right now and making

1349
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:06,200
Speaker 13: sure that we're all kind of working together to get

1350
01:11:06,240 --> 01:11:08,200
Speaker 13: on the same page. And I wouldn't say it's that

1351
01:11:08,320 --> 01:11:11,080
Speaker 13: much different from you know, when he took over, but in.

1352
01:11:11,080 --> 01:11:14,360
Speaker 14: Terms that's in terms of him the offense itself, does

1353
01:11:14,360 --> 01:11:16,280
Speaker 14: it seem or is that what you say is the

1354
01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:16,960
Speaker 14: offensive self?

1355
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:18,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say when he took over.

1356
01:11:18,800 --> 01:11:20,960
Speaker 13: I mean obviously, I mean it was great when he

1357
01:11:21,040 --> 01:11:23,880
Speaker 13: when he took over, and how things that direction we

1358
01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:26,160
Speaker 13: headed after he took over. And I think it's just

1359
01:11:26,200 --> 01:11:28,360
Speaker 13: building on top of that. So not much is is

1360
01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:29,360
Speaker 13: too different.

1361
01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:32,479
Speaker 11: Yards after catch is always an emphasis, and it was

1362
01:11:32,560 --> 01:11:35,120
Speaker 11: last year you guys did improve your yards after catch

1363
01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:38,400
Speaker 11: and you know totals do you you know, what is

1364
01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:43,280
Speaker 11: your attitude for that in the offseason, Like now, can.

1365
01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:48,200
Speaker 3: You how do you prove how do you improve that personally.

1366
01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:50,800
Speaker 13: I mean yards after catch. It's it's weird right now

1367
01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:52,479
Speaker 13: because we're not we're not in paths, we're not hitting,

1368
01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:55,120
Speaker 13: we're not tackling. But I think it's more of just

1369
01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:58,200
Speaker 13: a mentality of when you catch the ball right now,

1370
01:11:58,240 --> 01:12:00,479
Speaker 13: working up field, whether the dude tag off on you

1371
01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:03,000
Speaker 13: right away or not, it's just putting in your brain

1372
01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:04,400
Speaker 13: that when you catch the ball and you're gonna make

1373
01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:07,240
Speaker 13: a move, do that now. So then when the pads

1374
01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:09,719
Speaker 13: get put on, it's just like it's just it just happens,

1375
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:12,680
Speaker 13: you know. So it's a little funky, but at the

1376
01:12:12,680 --> 01:12:14,679
Speaker 13: same time, it's you catch the ball and the defense

1377
01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:16,360
Speaker 13: is getting worked from that as well. It's no matter

1378
01:12:16,360 --> 01:12:18,120
Speaker 13: what you catch the ball, you get tagged, you still

1379
01:12:18,120 --> 01:12:20,000
Speaker 13: get a little burst up field, and the rest of

1380
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:22,400
Speaker 13: the defense is gonna you know, pursue and and you

1381
01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:24,240
Speaker 13: know tag off as well. So we're all getting work

1382
01:12:24,280 --> 01:12:27,120
Speaker 13: in that manner. But it's definitely a little tricky, but

1383
01:12:27,160 --> 01:12:29,280
Speaker 13: it's I think it's more of a mentality for sure.

1384
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:34,000
Speaker 11: Strength and conditioning element, like what part of your body

1385
01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:37,200
Speaker 11: you can like enhance to improve that or what do

1386
01:12:37,200 --> 01:12:37,720
Speaker 11: you think about that?

1387
01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:39,040
Speaker 1: Uh?

1388
01:12:39,080 --> 01:12:41,519
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean obviously getting bigger and stronger. I mean

1389
01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:44,880
Speaker 13: obviously running through arm tackles. You know, when you're trending

1390
01:12:44,920 --> 01:12:47,240
Speaker 13: the weight room for you know, whenever you start training,

1391
01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:48,920
Speaker 13: you're trying to build more muscles so you can run

1392
01:12:48,920 --> 01:12:52,200
Speaker 13: through arm tackles. Uh should even run through guys who

1393
01:12:53,080 --> 01:12:54,920
Speaker 13: if you just got to run through somebody face, you know,

1394
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:58,360
Speaker 13: I would say it's more just getting bigger, faster, stronger

1395
01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:00,280
Speaker 13: and all of those things. Are you know in the

1396
01:13:00,280 --> 01:13:00,720
Speaker 13: weight room?

1397
01:13:01,200 --> 01:13:04,880
Speaker 10: Well, last year, did you did you sets that there

1398
01:13:05,160 --> 01:13:08,840
Speaker 10: was an urgency or a need to get football and.

1399
01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:11,439
Speaker 15: Stuff on, Like it's been a while to talk about

1400
01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:13,439
Speaker 15: how they had to feed him to keep him afy

1401
01:13:13,439 --> 01:13:16,240
Speaker 15: iMedia out or whatever it was. As a player, did

1402
01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:18,800
Speaker 15: you feel the sense that, yeah, we need to get

1403
01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:20,880
Speaker 15: him ten targets a game over time?

1404
01:13:21,400 --> 01:13:22,960
Speaker 13: I mean, I mean, I think when you have a

1405
01:13:22,960 --> 01:13:26,240
Speaker 13: guy like Steph, obviously he's he's uh one of the

1406
01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:29,920
Speaker 13: best receivers in the league, you know, so yeah, it's like, okay, yeah,

1407
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:31,360
Speaker 13: let's try and give him the ball. But I think

1408
01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:34,320
Speaker 13: it's there's a certain point where it's like, you know,

1409
01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:37,360
Speaker 13: I think it all works together for spreading the ball around, right,

1410
01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:39,519
Speaker 13: you know, because then that gets him open, or that

1411
01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:41,599
Speaker 13: gets something that gets me open, that gets somebody else open.

1412
01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 13: I wouldn't say it's like a you know, we need

1413
01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:45,840
Speaker 13: to get him the ball. But at the same time

1414
01:13:46,760 --> 01:13:47,280
Speaker 13: he's great.

1415
01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:52,479
Speaker 16: So when Joe Joe today said in this offense, everybody

1416
01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:56,640
Speaker 16: can everybody's gonna meet him, it sounds like something that

1417
01:13:56,760 --> 01:13:59,000
Speaker 16: maybe he said in the meeting room too. Yeah.

1418
01:13:59,120 --> 01:14:01,600
Speaker 13: No, that's a that's a mentality where Hills tell us

1419
01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:04,559
Speaker 13: all the time, everybody eats, and that's you know, whether

1420
01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:06,360
Speaker 13: you're running a certain route, you gotta go and you

1421
01:14:06,360 --> 01:14:07,960
Speaker 13: got to clear for your buddy who's coming to run

1422
01:14:08,040 --> 01:14:11,280
Speaker 13: an hour out whatever it is. You know, like I

1423
01:14:11,320 --> 01:14:13,080
Speaker 13: said before, what goes around comes around. If you got

1424
01:14:13,080 --> 01:14:15,960
Speaker 13: to sit there and run to go fifty times, do

1425
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:17,880
Speaker 13: it full speed fifty times, you know, than that fifty

1426
01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:19,439
Speaker 13: first time, it might be you running that out and

1427
01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:20,960
Speaker 13: somebody else is clearing the ball for you. You know,

1428
01:14:21,080 --> 01:14:23,360
Speaker 13: So it's you know, it's more of mentality. It's like

1429
01:14:23,400 --> 01:14:25,719
Speaker 13: we're all working together to make sure that that play

1430
01:14:25,760 --> 01:14:28,240
Speaker 13: works and that you know, you just keep building off

1431
01:14:28,280 --> 01:14:28,639
Speaker 13: of that.

1432
01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:31,200
Speaker 16: Different Is that different from last year? And in some

1433
01:14:31,240 --> 01:14:34,559
Speaker 16: ways because you know, with the focus on Diggs. When

1434
01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:39,040
Speaker 16: when you have this kind of a grouping of receivers,

1435
01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:40,560
Speaker 16: I'm not gonna rate it, but when you have what

1436
01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:43,559
Speaker 16: do you do when it lacks that digs person? Is

1437
01:14:43,560 --> 01:14:45,320
Speaker 16: that is that an important focus?

1438
01:14:45,320 --> 01:14:45,719
Speaker 3: Perhaps?

1439
01:14:46,160 --> 01:14:46,400
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1440
01:14:46,439 --> 01:14:49,160
Speaker 13: I mean, like I said before, it's it's really right now.

1441
01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:51,599
Speaker 13: Our mentality as a receiver room is, you know, we're

1442
01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:53,479
Speaker 13: kind of trying to learn. Everybody's trying to learn every

1443
01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,120
Speaker 13: different spot so we can play fast and not have

1444
01:14:56,160 --> 01:14:58,479
Speaker 13: to think about it. And like I said, if you

1445
01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:00,800
Speaker 13: got to if you're playing Z and you got to

1446
01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:02,400
Speaker 13: run a go so the f can get open, it's

1447
01:15:02,439 --> 01:15:04,160
Speaker 13: got you gotta do it. Then five plays later it'll

1448
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:07,160
Speaker 13: probably flip flop, you know. So I definitely think us

1449
01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:10,320
Speaker 13: trying to spread and and and spread the ball and

1450
01:15:10,360 --> 01:15:13,639
Speaker 13: get everybody up and get everybody involved just for allows

1451
01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:15,479
Speaker 13: for us to have so much more targets, you know,

1452
01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:19,280
Speaker 13: and as a group, if we all know what we're doing.

1453
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:23,799
Speaker 13: I mean, he's an animal, just his his mentality starts

1454
01:15:23,800 --> 01:15:25,720
Speaker 13: with his mentality. Every time he touches the field like

1455
01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:27,680
Speaker 13: he's he's on go mo, like he's ready to go.

1456
01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:31,719
Speaker 13: He's made some crazy catches, run some really good routes.

1457
01:15:32,439 --> 01:15:32,559
Speaker 11: Uh.

1458
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:36,000
Speaker 13: Great, great dude, Like I said, brings the energy every

1459
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:36,519
Speaker 13: single day.

1460
01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:37,559
Speaker 1: Love the dude.

1461
01:15:38,200 --> 01:15:40,880
Speaker 11: So then do you feel that guys are with you

1462
01:15:40,880 --> 01:15:44,000
Speaker 11: know Brady and just uh you know, first fool season

1463
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:45,120
Speaker 11: as OC with a bunch.

1464
01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:47,439
Speaker 13: Of new guys, you receive Yeah, I mean I think

1465
01:15:47,479 --> 01:15:49,840
Speaker 13: it's going great. I think everybody settling just fine. I

1466
01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,519
Speaker 13: think with Joe Brady, he's, like I said, just his

1467
01:15:52,640 --> 01:15:54,760
Speaker 13: his energy and and how likable he is as a

1468
01:15:54,760 --> 01:15:57,519
Speaker 13: as a guy and a coach, and his mentality towards

1469
01:15:57,520 --> 01:15:59,680
Speaker 13: football on his love for the game. When you're a

1470
01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:01,599
Speaker 13: new guy and you come in, it's like you hit

1471
01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:03,760
Speaker 13: the jackpot, Like he's he's a great dude, great coach,

1472
01:16:04,479 --> 01:16:05,920
Speaker 13: and you want to work hard for him.

1473
01:16:05,960 --> 01:16:08,519
Speaker 8: So, well, you have to take more of a leadership

1474
01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:10,320
Speaker 8: role this year because there might be guys in that

1475
01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:13,280
Speaker 8: room that have more NFL experience, but you have the

1476
01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:14,160
Speaker 8: most Bills.

1477
01:16:13,880 --> 01:16:14,720
Speaker 1: Experience in that room.

1478
01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:16,639
Speaker 3: Do you have to be more of a leader that well?

1479
01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:19,760
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean I've always looked at it as I'm

1480
01:16:19,760 --> 01:16:22,240
Speaker 13: not much of a vocal guy, but when we touch

1481
01:16:22,280 --> 01:16:23,880
Speaker 13: the field, I'm a show by example. When we're in

1482
01:16:23,880 --> 01:16:25,920
Speaker 13: the weight room, I'm the show by example. Anybody comes

1483
01:16:25,920 --> 01:16:27,640
Speaker 13: in with a question, I got the answer. If I

1484
01:16:27,640 --> 01:16:30,160
Speaker 13: don't got the answer, I'm gonna go get it for them.

1485
01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:33,120
Speaker 13: Been working on being a little bit more vocal, but

1486
01:16:33,200 --> 01:16:35,880
Speaker 13: with staying true to myself and who I am. But

1487
01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:38,200
Speaker 13: I would just say the main thing of my leadership

1488
01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:39,559
Speaker 13: is by example for sure.

1489
01:16:39,920 --> 01:16:43,680
Speaker 3: How was coached interview? You know demeanor been into his

1490
01:16:43,800 --> 01:16:44,880
Speaker 3: second year and now that.

1491
01:16:44,960 --> 01:16:45,920
Speaker 1: You know you have a bradum.

1492
01:16:45,960 --> 01:16:51,320
Speaker 13: See, yeah, coach Henry is awesome. Just with him being

1493
01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:54,439
Speaker 13: here his second year and working. I mean it's a

1494
01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:56,320
Speaker 13: whole new room, so it's like he's it's kind of

1495
01:16:56,360 --> 01:16:59,719
Speaker 13: a restart as well. But I mean his his mentality

1496
01:16:59,760 --> 01:17:02,840
Speaker 13: towards the game and towards being a wide out. The

1497
01:17:03,240 --> 01:17:05,160
Speaker 13: influence that has on us to get open and to

1498
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:07,559
Speaker 13: be dogs when we touch the field, like that starts

1499
01:17:07,560 --> 01:17:09,280
Speaker 13: with him and he and he shows up every day

1500
01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:11,080
Speaker 13: and make sure that we have that mentality when we

1501
01:17:11,120 --> 01:17:13,439
Speaker 13: step on to the field. If not, he corrects us

1502
01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:15,760
Speaker 13: and make sure that we're you know, in our best

1503
01:17:15,760 --> 01:17:17,360
Speaker 13: shape possible to make plays.

1504
01:17:17,600 --> 01:17:19,240
Speaker 3: I know he's in a different room, in the tight

1505
01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:19,720
Speaker 3: end room.

1506
01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:22,120
Speaker 12: But Dalton Kincaid, how much have you seen him grow

1507
01:17:22,360 --> 01:17:24,439
Speaker 12: from his first year to this year. What you've seen

1508
01:17:24,479 --> 01:17:25,559
Speaker 12: so far from many officers.

1509
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:28,400
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean he's he's amazing. Just his his feel

1510
01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:31,720
Speaker 13: for the game and even in the run game of

1511
01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:35,479
Speaker 13: just him making blocks and just the Sometimes the transition

1512
01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:37,160
Speaker 13: can be a little tricky from college to the NFL,

1513
01:17:37,160 --> 01:17:39,240
Speaker 13: and he stepped right into the in the fire and

1514
01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:41,519
Speaker 13: and what's going crazy and dealt with it like a

1515
01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:45,599
Speaker 13: professional's He's a true professional for sure. Building great dude,

1516
01:17:45,720 --> 01:17:49,760
Speaker 13: great dude, funny guy like staff fun but also knows

1517
01:17:49,760 --> 01:17:51,280
Speaker 13: when when the flip switch and turn it on when

1518
01:17:51,280 --> 01:17:52,599
Speaker 13: it's go time. So he's great.

1519
01:17:53,280 --> 01:17:55,080
Speaker 11: I guess there's gonna be a lot of staff questions

1520
01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:57,720
Speaker 11: between now in September, so let's throw another one out there.

1521
01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:01,600
Speaker 11: So I like his practice approach, you know, like he

1522
01:18:01,680 --> 01:18:07,360
Speaker 11: took every practice intense, you know, like I'm I'm trying now,

1523
01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:10,960
Speaker 11: you're you're like some of these not many people were

1524
01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:13,720
Speaker 11: around for that last week, you know, like how do

1525
01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:15,840
Speaker 11: you who takes over that or do.

1526
01:18:16,040 --> 01:18:20,040
Speaker 3: You need somebody to kind of not be like him?

1527
01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:21,480
Speaker 3: You be yourself.

1528
01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:26,960
Speaker 11: But to bring that practice mentality.

1529
01:18:25,400 --> 01:18:27,200
Speaker 13: I think we all learned that we're all professionals. I

1530
01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:29,759
Speaker 13: think we all understand the important of practice, of practice

1531
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:32,400
Speaker 13: in the reps that we get in making the most

1532
01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:35,840
Speaker 13: of them, and the preparation as well. I would say, really,

1533
01:18:35,880 --> 01:18:38,639
Speaker 13: you know, Mac is a guy who brings crazy juice

1534
01:18:38,680 --> 01:18:41,519
Speaker 13: every single day. But other than that, I think we're

1535
01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:45,280
Speaker 13: all kind of collectively as a group getting each other going. Obviously,

1536
01:18:45,320 --> 01:18:47,120
Speaker 13: it was very visible with Steph last year when he

1537
01:18:47,120 --> 01:18:49,360
Speaker 13: would step on step onto the practice field and running

1538
01:18:49,360 --> 01:18:52,439
Speaker 13: from drow to drill and just his uh, how how

1539
01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:54,840
Speaker 13: intense he was and how ready he was every time

1540
01:18:54,880 --> 01:18:56,880
Speaker 13: he touched the practice field. I think now it's more

1541
01:18:56,880 --> 01:18:58,559
Speaker 13: of like, like I said, we're all professionals and we all

1542
01:18:58,640 --> 01:19:01,960
Speaker 13: kind of know that right here, right now, this practice

1543
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:03,439
Speaker 13: is the most important thing, and we have to make

1544
01:19:03,439 --> 01:19:04,800
Speaker 13: sure that we take every every rep.

1545
01:19:04,840 --> 01:19:08,360
Speaker 3: Series the Pittsburgh the Pittsburgh touchdown?

1546
01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:09,040
Speaker 1: Was that?

1547
01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:11,880
Speaker 3: Do you feel that as a statement play for you?

1548
01:19:13,400 --> 01:19:15,960
Speaker 13: Honestly, man, I was just playing football. It's funny people

1549
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:17,320
Speaker 13: are like, how did you how do you do that

1550
01:19:17,439 --> 01:19:18,760
Speaker 13: or how did you do that? And for me, I

1551
01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:22,000
Speaker 13: mean caught the ball and just reacted and just played ball.

1552
01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:25,360
Speaker 13: It's it's kind of hard to I wouldn't say it

1553
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:27,040
Speaker 13: was just like a statement thing. But I think it

1554
01:19:27,080 --> 01:19:29,640
Speaker 13: definitely was showed a lot of my capabilities and what

1555
01:19:29,680 --> 01:19:30,640
Speaker 13: I can do.

1556
01:19:30,680 --> 01:19:33,200
Speaker 3: You mentioned that it's good, like he is really vocal.

1557
01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:34,519
Speaker 14: He seems to get.

1558
01:19:34,360 --> 01:19:36,719
Speaker 4: Brice a lot of teams like anyone.

1559
01:19:36,840 --> 01:19:38,679
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean Mac is great. I mean ever since

1560
01:19:38,680 --> 01:19:40,759
Speaker 13: he's gotten to the building, he's been a guy that's

1561
01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:43,800
Speaker 13: been upstairs talking to the coaches, making sure that you

1562
01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:46,040
Speaker 13: know every single play, every you know, run play, whatever

1563
01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:48,920
Speaker 13: it is, is very detailed and uh, like I said,

1564
01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:51,639
Speaker 13: when he steps onto that field, he's like on go moding.

1565
01:19:51,680 --> 01:19:53,280
Speaker 13: I think in our receiver room right now, he's probably

1566
01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:56,360
Speaker 13: he's probably the most vocal one, just just bringing energy,

1567
01:19:56,400 --> 01:19:59,559
Speaker 13: bringing the juice, you know, talking trash whatever it is.

1568
01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:01,559
Speaker 1: Man, he's right all right.

1569
01:20:01,600 --> 01:20:05,679
Speaker 2: That was Bill's wide receiver Khalil Shakir after practice today,

1570
01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:08,320
Speaker 2: speaking a lot about the wide receivers room and his

1571
01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:12,240
Speaker 2: role in it after he had a standout second season

1572
01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:15,400
Speaker 2: with the Buffalo Bills, especially toward.

1573
01:20:15,360 --> 01:20:16,320
Speaker 4: The end of the season.

1574
01:20:16,400 --> 01:20:19,960
Speaker 2: He came on strong in the second half of last

1575
01:20:20,000 --> 01:20:22,919
Speaker 2: season and into the playoffs and was a big impact

1576
01:20:23,080 --> 01:20:27,160
Speaker 2: player with someone who Josh Allen could trust and go

1577
01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:30,760
Speaker 2: to when the injury started to happen, and when we

1578
01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:34,439
Speaker 2: saw Stefan Diggs his production fall off a little bit

1579
01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:37,040
Speaker 2: toward the end of the season, someone like Khalil Shakir

1580
01:20:37,200 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 2: was able to step up and take advantage of the

1581
01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:43,920
Speaker 2: opportunities that were given to him. I believe this season,

1582
01:20:44,080 --> 01:20:47,680
Speaker 2: in his third year in the NFL, there's more expectations

1583
01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:51,040
Speaker 2: on what he can do this year with what he

1584
01:20:51,040 --> 01:20:54,320
Speaker 2: can do against great competition. We saw what he did

1585
01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:57,799
Speaker 2: against the Steelers and against the Chiefs. This is somebody

1586
01:20:57,840 --> 01:21:01,840
Speaker 2: who I believe Joe Bray and Sean McDermott and Josh

1587
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:05,240
Speaker 2: Allen expect, Hey, you were going to be a go

1588
01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:06,639
Speaker 2: to guy within this offense.

1589
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:09,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a guy who really spread his wings

1590
01:21:09,280 --> 01:21:12,439
Speaker 1: when Joe Brady took over the offense. And here's the

1591
01:21:12,479 --> 01:21:16,639
Speaker 1: thing too, we all feel it Diggs has gone, gave

1592
01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:20,479
Speaker 1: Davis has gone. Shakirs there played well in this offense.

1593
01:21:20,560 --> 01:21:22,839
Speaker 1: Took him a while, you know, it took him halfway

1594
01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:25,080
Speaker 1: through his second year to be a regular part of

1595
01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:30,120
Speaker 1: this offense and a new coordinator, but he's the really

1596
01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:32,439
Speaker 1: the guy people look to as a kind of a

1597
01:21:32,479 --> 01:21:35,160
Speaker 1: security blanket. We feel like, okay, at least there's one

1598
01:21:35,160 --> 01:21:40,200
Speaker 1: guy who Josh knows, one guy who you know knows

1599
01:21:40,240 --> 01:21:42,360
Speaker 1: what's going on this run that we're watching here, the

1600
01:21:42,640 --> 01:21:45,120
Speaker 1: touchdown against Pittsburgh. It was an elite play. There's just

1601
01:21:45,120 --> 01:21:47,840
Speaker 1: no two ways about it. For a slot receiver to

1602
01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:49,519
Speaker 1: come out and do what he did on that play,

1603
01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:52,400
Speaker 1: break a tackle, reversus field, come in and give up

1604
01:21:52,840 --> 01:21:56,679
Speaker 1: a stab move in between the hash marks. When you're

1605
01:21:57,200 --> 01:21:59,639
Speaker 1: you're in that crossing route, I think to go back

1606
01:21:59,640 --> 01:22:03,800
Speaker 1: across with all the big bodies down inside, and then

1607
01:22:03,840 --> 01:22:06,000
Speaker 1: to give a jab step move and to get into

1608
01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:08,720
Speaker 1: the end zone. It really was an elite play. He

1609
01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:12,479
Speaker 1: came on this last offseason and was a difference maker

1610
01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:15,720
Speaker 1: for this club in those six games, you know, the

1611
01:22:15,720 --> 01:22:18,880
Speaker 1: regular season after they lost the overtime game to Philly,

1612
01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:21,400
Speaker 1: the five remaining games they had to win, and then

1613
01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:23,400
Speaker 1: they did, and he was a big part of it.

1614
01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:28,200
Speaker 1: There's a big we all sense that there's this big

1615
01:22:28,320 --> 01:22:31,400
Speaker 1: void because we haven't seen anybody out there lined up.

1616
01:22:31,640 --> 01:22:33,840
Speaker 1: When you start seeing guys lined up out there and

1617
01:22:33,880 --> 01:22:35,760
Speaker 1: see him be a productive then you'll think, okay, we

1618
01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:40,280
Speaker 1: do have eleven guys out there right now. Shakir and Kincada,

1619
01:22:40,360 --> 01:22:42,120
Speaker 1: the only two guys we can recognize because we haven't

1620
01:22:42,120 --> 01:22:46,439
Speaker 1: seen anybody line up, So those targets they're not going

1621
01:22:46,520 --> 01:22:51,240
Speaker 1: to have. You know, this morning, South asked, you know

1622
01:22:51,280 --> 01:22:53,400
Speaker 1: about the targets. You know, there's over three hundred targets

1623
01:22:53,439 --> 01:22:57,679
Speaker 1: that walked out the door with Sherfield, Gabe Davis, Steph Diggs,

1624
01:22:58,200 --> 01:23:02,200
Speaker 1: and you know, you know Deontay Hardy. All those targets

1625
01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:04,400
Speaker 1: are all gone. So there's over three hundred targets walked

1626
01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:07,200
Speaker 1: out the door. There's still gonna be three hundred targets

1627
01:23:07,240 --> 01:23:10,080
Speaker 1: out there. They're gonna throw them to somebody whoever's lined

1628
01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:13,800
Speaker 1: up out there, and it's up to Josh and Joe

1629
01:23:13,880 --> 01:23:15,640
Speaker 1: Brady to make sure the guys that they're thrown to

1630
01:23:15,840 --> 01:23:17,400
Speaker 1: can catch it and are open it.

1631
01:23:19,160 --> 01:23:22,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and this is something that's gonna take longer for us,

1632
01:23:22,800 --> 01:23:26,840
Speaker 2: the media and national people who cover the game and

1633
01:23:26,880 --> 01:23:29,200
Speaker 2: our fans to get on board with than it does

1634
01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:32,000
Speaker 2: for the players. The players are already on board with

1635
01:23:32,160 --> 01:23:35,799
Speaker 2: the new tactics of how this offense is going to operate,

1636
01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:39,759
Speaker 2: and all these targets walking out the door in Stefan Diggs,

1637
01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:44,960
Speaker 2: Gabe Davis, Trent Sherfield, and Deontay Hardy. They have worked

1638
01:23:44,960 --> 01:23:47,200
Speaker 2: through that, they have walked through it, and now it

1639
01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:49,439
Speaker 2: is time to prepare for the upcoming season.

1640
01:23:49,560 --> 01:23:49,720
Speaker 4: US.

1641
01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:52,960
Speaker 2: The media and the fans are still talking about the

1642
01:23:52,960 --> 01:23:55,080
Speaker 2: fact that the guys, these guys are not a part

1643
01:23:55,080 --> 01:23:58,960
Speaker 2: of the team anymore, when in reality, it's it's in

1644
01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:02,679
Speaker 2: the past. For the players inside of this building, they're

1645
01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:04,599
Speaker 2: not worried about the guys not here anymore.

1646
01:24:04,640 --> 01:24:07,400
Speaker 4: They're worried about what can we do to.

1647
01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:10,360
Speaker 2: Get this team over the hump and they're going to

1648
01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:13,120
Speaker 2: make it through the playoffs and get to the super Bowl.

1649
01:24:13,120 --> 01:24:15,840
Speaker 2: What can we do Looking at each other inside of

1650
01:24:15,880 --> 01:24:18,320
Speaker 2: the meeting rooms, it doesn't matter who's not here anymore.

1651
01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:20,080
Speaker 2: It matters who is here.

1652
01:24:20,200 --> 01:24:22,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, they can get it done. And that's what they're

1653
01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:25,280
Speaker 1: going to teach themselves and prove to each other over

1654
01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:28,800
Speaker 1: the next three months that yeah, they're gonna like this group.

1655
01:24:29,120 --> 01:24:32,160
Speaker 1: And it'll take the fans a little bit to get

1656
01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:34,840
Speaker 1: used to that. But when they start seeing these guys

1657
01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:37,519
Speaker 1: come out and unfurrol this offense, and you know, with

1658
01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:40,920
Speaker 1: Josh pulling the trigger, this an offense you're gonna be

1659
01:24:40,920 --> 01:24:42,360
Speaker 1: able to get behind and it's going to start to

1660
01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:50,240
Speaker 1: feel more normal. We'll see. But Shaker's right, he's really

1661
01:24:50,280 --> 01:24:54,559
Speaker 1: the only guy standing from the receiver room who caught

1662
01:24:54,600 --> 01:24:57,000
Speaker 1: a pass last year. Brownie has famously said at time

1663
01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:59,000
Speaker 1: and time again, there's only one guy who's ever caught

1664
01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:01,400
Speaker 1: a pass with Josh from Josh in the wide receiver

1665
01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:05,799
Speaker 1: room at Shakiir. So we're all kind of desperately grasping

1666
01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:10,760
Speaker 1: and hoping Shakir has a breakout year. But I think

1667
01:25:10,800 --> 01:25:12,240
Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys in that room who are

1668
01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:14,760
Speaker 1: going to have breakout years this year because we've seen

1669
01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:17,280
Speaker 1: it before with new receivers on this team who come

1670
01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:21,800
Speaker 1: from quarterback X to quarterback JA seventeen.

1671
01:25:22,080 --> 01:25:25,280
Speaker 2: Mccollins has not played with a quarterback like Josh Allen yet.

1672
01:25:25,400 --> 01:25:28,479
Speaker 2: Curtis Samuel had Cam Newton for a couple years in

1673
01:25:28,520 --> 01:25:32,880
Speaker 2: his final NFL seasons, had I think one good solid

1674
01:25:32,920 --> 01:25:35,200
Speaker 2: year with Cam Newton, but aside from that, has not

1675
01:25:35,360 --> 01:25:39,040
Speaker 2: played with a quarterback like Josh Allen. So you're getting

1676
01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:42,040
Speaker 2: two receivers who have a good makeup in what they

1677
01:25:42,120 --> 01:25:44,320
Speaker 2: can put on the field. You've got a tall player

1678
01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:47,000
Speaker 2: in mac collins and you've got a shifty guy in

1679
01:25:47,080 --> 01:25:50,320
Speaker 2: Curtis Samuel. You pair that with Josh Allen, you're probably

1680
01:25:50,360 --> 01:25:53,439
Speaker 2: gonna get some career numbers out of these guys this season.

1681
01:25:53,640 --> 01:25:57,679
Speaker 2: I definitely believe that is something that is capable of happening.

1682
01:25:58,080 --> 01:26:00,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot of potential there, no question, And

1683
01:26:00,560 --> 01:26:03,519
Speaker 1: because it's potential, it just means it's not proven yet.

1684
01:26:03,640 --> 01:26:06,400
Speaker 1: And these guys are going to go out and attempt

1685
01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:08,759
Speaker 1: to do that not only to you know, Bills fans,

1686
01:26:08,760 --> 01:26:11,000
Speaker 1: but also to themselves and each other in the room.

1687
01:26:11,040 --> 01:26:13,640
Speaker 1: So it's going to be a fun preseason. I think

1688
01:26:13,680 --> 01:26:15,320
Speaker 1: it's going to be intriguing. I think you're going to

1689
01:26:15,360 --> 01:26:17,080
Speaker 1: get some mileage out of the fact that teams don't

1690
01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:18,680
Speaker 1: know what this offense is going to look like, and

1691
01:26:18,680 --> 01:26:20,439
Speaker 1: in the early days of the season, if they can

1692
01:26:20,479 --> 01:26:23,599
Speaker 1: execute it, it's going to give them a great deal

1693
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:24,080
Speaker 1: of benefit.

1694
01:26:24,240 --> 01:26:26,639
Speaker 2: It's always an advantage, especially when you're going to play

1695
01:26:26,680 --> 01:26:29,439
Speaker 2: a hard schedule in the first half of your season.

1696
01:26:29,479 --> 01:26:32,320
Speaker 2: You're going to have to have yourselves figured out ahead

1697
01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:35,559
Speaker 2: of Week six, knowing that the first few weeks of

1698
01:26:35,600 --> 01:26:39,160
Speaker 2: the season are against teams that could give you a

1699
01:26:39,160 --> 01:26:41,639
Speaker 2: little bit of a tougher time compared to the rest

1700
01:26:41,640 --> 01:26:43,760
Speaker 2: of the season. Break time for us. But when we

1701
01:26:43,920 --> 01:26:46,080
Speaker 2: come back, we're going to get into the tweets sheet.

1702
01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:48,120
Speaker 2: What new wrinkle do you want to see in the

1703
01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:51,840
Speaker 2: Bills offense in this twenty twenty four season that's just

1704
01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:54,920
Speaker 2: a few months away. Don't go anywhere here on One

1705
01:26:54,920 --> 01:26:57,800
Speaker 2: Bill's Live or presented by Clyde Health on Buffalo Bills Radio.

1706
01:27:12,360 --> 01:27:14,439
Speaker 2: We're back on One Bill's Live. What new wrinkle do

1707
01:27:14,479 --> 01:27:16,479
Speaker 2: you want to see in the Bills offense?

1708
01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:17,599
Speaker 4: Let's get to our tweets sheet?

1709
01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:20,559
Speaker 2: Brought to you by Corgan Moving Systems, the official equipment

1710
01:27:20,600 --> 01:27:24,680
Speaker 2: moving company of the Buffalo Bills, and Tom says, we

1711
01:27:24,720 --> 01:27:27,680
Speaker 2: did not run the RB screen play very much, if

1712
01:27:27,680 --> 01:27:30,519
Speaker 2: at all, and the usage of tight ends in this

1713
01:27:30,600 --> 01:27:32,960
Speaker 2: offense is going to be crazy this year. Can ca

1714
01:27:32,960 --> 01:27:38,160
Speaker 2: can line up anywhere, slot, split, etc. Running back screen

1715
01:27:38,479 --> 01:27:41,240
Speaker 2: you already commented on it. Do you believe it can

1716
01:27:41,320 --> 01:27:44,240
Speaker 2: work in this offense knowing that you have Josh Allen

1717
01:27:44,280 --> 01:27:46,040
Speaker 2: as your quarterback or do you think that kind of

1718
01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:48,000
Speaker 2: limits the ability to do something as.

1719
01:27:47,960 --> 01:27:50,920
Speaker 1: Hard because defenses played Josh Allen a little differently than

1720
01:27:50,920 --> 01:27:53,760
Speaker 1: they play every other quarterback, and because of that, it

1721
01:27:53,840 --> 01:27:56,599
Speaker 1: gives them the Because here's the thing, Josh is the

1722
01:27:56,600 --> 01:27:59,200
Speaker 1: hardest quarterback. Even statistics will tell you Josh is the

1723
01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:02,240
Speaker 1: hardest quarterback the league to sack for obvious reasons. First

1724
01:28:02,280 --> 01:28:05,200
Speaker 1: of all, he's as big and strong as most defensive

1725
01:28:05,200 --> 01:28:07,479
Speaker 1: linemen who are trying to tackle him anyway. He can

1726
01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:10,519
Speaker 1: certainly outrun almost all of them, so they have a

1727
01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:13,799
Speaker 1: hard time sacking him anyway because of his athleticism, his size,

1728
01:28:13,800 --> 01:28:17,400
Speaker 1: and his arm strength. Secondly, so they because they can't

1729
01:28:17,439 --> 01:28:20,720
Speaker 1: sack him even if they get a free rusher, so

1730
01:28:20,760 --> 01:28:23,400
Speaker 1: they kind of rush him with their antenna up, trying

1731
01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:25,120
Speaker 1: to bat pass this down, trying to keep him in,

1732
01:28:25,160 --> 01:28:27,000
Speaker 1: trying to make him beat them from the pocket. At

1733
01:28:27,080 --> 01:28:29,400
Speaker 1: least he won't run off if we keep him in

1734
01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:33,719
Speaker 1: the pocket. That in and of itself crushes your ability

1735
01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:37,360
Speaker 1: to running back screens. So for all of those, for

1736
01:28:37,400 --> 01:28:39,960
Speaker 1: those reasons is and that it's gonna be hard while

1737
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:43,720
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's your quarterback because defenses are defending him and

1738
01:28:43,800 --> 01:28:45,400
Speaker 1: at the same time of defending him, it kind of

1739
01:28:45,439 --> 01:28:48,400
Speaker 1: takes the running back screen game out of the equation.

1740
01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:50,640
Speaker 1: They can still run bubble screens the White House and

1741
01:28:50,640 --> 01:28:50,960
Speaker 1: all of that.

1742
01:28:51,080 --> 01:28:52,960
Speaker 2: Yes, we've seen bubble screens before.

1743
01:28:53,040 --> 01:28:53,920
Speaker 4: Out of this team, So.

1744
01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:56,040
Speaker 2: Maybe it's more of a usage of something like that

1745
01:28:56,080 --> 01:28:59,519
Speaker 2: if running back screens just aren't something that's going to

1746
01:28:59,520 --> 01:29:00,360
Speaker 2: be so too.

1747
01:29:00,680 --> 01:29:04,760
Speaker 1: He's right the tight ends in this offense. I'm you

1748
01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:06,479
Speaker 1: got to be high on him. We've got good ones.

1749
01:29:06,680 --> 01:29:10,759
Speaker 1: Knox and Kincaid are really good. Knocks isn't as readily

1750
01:29:10,800 --> 01:29:14,599
Speaker 1: available outside the numbers as Kincaid is. But the fact

1751
01:29:14,600 --> 01:29:16,360
Speaker 1: that you got one of those guys plus a guy

1752
01:29:16,360 --> 01:29:20,200
Speaker 1: who's really good down inside, yeah, that causes some matchup

1753
01:29:20,240 --> 01:29:21,960
Speaker 1: problems for a lot of defense. Not all of them,

1754
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:23,160
Speaker 1: but certainly for a good handful.

1755
01:29:23,320 --> 01:29:24,960
Speaker 2: We might see a little bit more of that this

1756
01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:27,880
Speaker 2: upcoming season. Knowing that Don Kincaid has a year of

1757
01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:31,000
Speaker 2: NFL experience under his belt, he'll be able to do

1758
01:29:31,040 --> 01:29:33,559
Speaker 2: a little bit more within this offense. One more before

1759
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:36,320
Speaker 2: we go, mister Ian says more effective plays on third

1760
01:29:36,360 --> 01:29:38,839
Speaker 2: and short. At times last year, I felt more confident

1761
01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:42,000
Speaker 2: in third and ten being converted rather than third and two.

1762
01:29:43,400 --> 01:29:48,160
Speaker 1: Right, that's true, I get it. But this team still

1763
01:29:48,200 --> 01:29:50,720
Speaker 1: converts more third downs than anybody in the league. They

1764
01:29:50,760 --> 01:29:53,400
Speaker 1: make more first downs than anybody in the league. They're

1765
01:29:53,439 --> 01:29:54,360
Speaker 1: still going to be able.

1766
01:29:54,240 --> 01:29:57,240
Speaker 2: To do that yep, all right, thanks for joining the

1767
01:29:57,280 --> 01:30:00,679
Speaker 2: show today. From Steve Tasker, I'm Mattie gleas up tomorrow.

1768
01:30:00,840 --> 01:30:01,720
Speaker 2: You're gonna have Christ.

1769
01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:02,320
Speaker 3: Pass it on

1770
01:30:04,439 --> 01:30:10,559
Speaker 12: H
