1
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: This is One Bills Live, presented by Kalida Health. All Right,

2
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: welcome to an extended pregame edition of One Bill's Live.

3
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: We are here on game day for Thursday night football.

4
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the interconference crossover game.

5
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: This is the game that is the seventeenth for all

6
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: intents and purposes. When they went to a seventeen game schedule,

7
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: what they added was an interconference game from a division

8
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 1: you haven't played in a couple of years. Same position, finish,

9
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: presto changjo. They get the Tampa Bay Buccaneers here at home.

10
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 2: Is an interconference or intra intra is within your own conference?

11
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,039
Speaker 1: Or I thought it was inter is between conferences.

12
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 2: Well, I thought it was the opposite of that.

13
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,839
Speaker 1: I'm pretty confident intra is look it up on Google.

14
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: But I'm pretty sure intra conference is within your own conference.

15
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: Inter conference is between conferences.

16
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 2: Somebody's gonna tweet as us and tell us before.

17
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: We also have some unfortunate news to pass along concerning

18
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: those that might be coming to the game from Canada.

19
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to take a reroute if you were

20
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: planning to take the Peace Bridge. The reason why is

21
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: New York State Police or on the scene currently of

22
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: a fatal shooting along the one ninety South near the

23
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: Peace Bridge. There are multiple injuries. State Police say there

24
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: is at least one fatality in the shooting. Unfortunately, so

25
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: the one ninety South is closed at the Peace Bridge

26
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: and all traffic is being diverted north to the Skajaqua

27
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: to exit. So if you are a Bills fan from

28
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: southern Ontario you're planning to come to the game tonight,

29
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: do not take the Peace Bridge. Go to the Rainbow

30
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: Bridge or the Lewiston Bridge in Niagara Falls, take that

31
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 1: over to the two ninety and then take the two

32
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 1: ninety nine or to the ninety interchange and come to

33
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: the stadium that way. Avoid the one ninety South at

34
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: all costs right now because it is closed for police activity.

35
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: If we get any updates that that route has reopened,

36
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 1: we will let you know, but for now, your best

37
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 1: plan is to take if you're coming in to the

38
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: States from Canada, take the Rainbow Bridge or the Lewiston Bridge,

39
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,119
Speaker 1: and then take the two ninety to the ninety to

40
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: the stadium. Avoid the one ninety South at all costs.

41
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: So the same would go for those of you coming

42
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 1: from Grand Island to the game tonight, take the two

43
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 1: ninety to the one ninety or two ninety to the ninety.

44
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, two ninety to the ninety. Do not take

45
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: the one ninety south at any way, shape or form

46
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: right now. It is closed due to police activity. For

47
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,959
Speaker 1: what police are reporting is unfortunately a fatal shooting over

48
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,959
Speaker 1: there right on the one ninety. So some bad news

49
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: to pass along, but we want you to be aware

50
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: of it so you can get to the game in

51
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: a timely fashion. So do not take the one ninety

52
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: south in any way, shape or form right now. It

53
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: is closed due to police activity. So just wanted to

54
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: get that out there. You were right, Unfortunately, oh interconference.

55
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 2: Interconference is between two different conferences in truck. Conference is

56
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 2: within within.

57
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: Yes, that's what I That's what I had thought it was.

58
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: So my English teacher is very proud of me right

59
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: now from eighth grade. So that's good news.

60

159
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 2: get you know.

160
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: It's more cloud than I got.

161
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: I know that. Well, it's not nothing, it is something.

162
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 2: It is nice.

163
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: Pull it around a little bit is nice.

164
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 2: But I think I'm going to do the.

165
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: Badge for that, A badge, Hi, Steve Tasker.

166
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 2: Right, they do give us, they do give us sport

167
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 2: codes for that. We got a sport code that you

168
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:50,559
Speaker 2: just got the.

169
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 1: To wear that more often?

170
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 2: They usually have events. All the guys, right, all the

171
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 2: guys right, all the guys you know, should show up

172
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 2: at an event someplace and have the on. But the end,

173
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 2: we never really do that.

174
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 1: That's why I'm thinking a badge is better, more portable,

175
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: more official. You know, people people stand up straight when

176
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: somebody flashes a badge at him. You know, Wall of

177
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:12,959
Speaker 1: fame badge.

178
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 2: Wall of fame bag.

179
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: We gotta make one.

180
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 2: We got we're gonna we're gonna make a couple of No,

181
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 2: I don't need all of that. All I need is

182
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 2: a quiet place to take a nap, Bro, That's all.

183
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 2: I don't need a badge. I don't need any of

184
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 2: that stuff.

185
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: I'm just saying a badge may get you somewhere where

186
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: you can get a quality nap in.

187
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 2: That's all I'm if I need a badge. If I

188
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 2: need a badge, you and I shouldn't be there. That's

189
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 2: kind of the way I feel about it.

190
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 1: Fair enough.

191
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 2: But it's a long day, so you and I got

192
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 2: a late start. We It's it's driving me crazy because

193
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 2: every time I go out, I feel like I need

194
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 2: to put a coat on. And I go out and

195
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 2: as warm as.

196
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 1: As can be, it's toasty.

197
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 2: It looks it was cloudy and kind of wet this morning,

198
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 2: so I thought, wow, it's really gonna be chilly.

199
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: It is gonna change dramatically. It's really next week where

200
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: they're already talking about snow right right. It's like I

201
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: always say, you know, I've lived here long enough to

202
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: know because people ask me, oh, oh, you know, I

203
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 1: was only going to go to a couple of home

204
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 1: games this year, but I really don't like the cold.

205
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 1: And what I tell him is I said, after Halloween,

206
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: all bets are off, right, All bets are off after Halloween.

207
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 1: So that's right, and that is proving to be true

208
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 1: based on the weather that's being forecast for next week,

209
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 1: which there's some snow and sleet in the forecast, so

210
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 1: go figure. We do want to bring you up to

211
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: date though on some injury news for both teams. Number one,

212
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: NFL Networks, Mike Garifolo, NFL Networks, Tom Pellasero, NFL Networks, SEE,

213
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: and Rapidport. They've all been busy reporting injury news and

214
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 1: they are reporting the following. Bucks quarterback Baker Mayfield and

215
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,839
Speaker 1: wide receiver Chris squad When, both of whom were listed

216
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: as questionable for tonight's game, are expected to play. However,

217
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 1: defensive tackle vide Vea, who has a groin injury, is

218
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 1: going to be a true game time decision tonight, so

219
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 1: based on how he does in a pregame workout will

220
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,200
Speaker 1: determine whether he plays. That is a giant piece off

221
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: their defensive line if he cannot go tonight. No, he's yeah,

222
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: he's well right, he's three hundred and fifty pounds, he tied,

223
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 1: he is tied for the team lead in sacks with five,

224
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 1: and I think he's also the lead the team leader

225
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: in tackles for loss and quarterback hits. So he has

226
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: been a very productive player for them. In the middle

227
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: of that defense, So he is a true game time

228
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:31,199
Speaker 1: decision tonight truly questionable. Not surprisingly, so is Bill's defensive

229
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:35,199
Speaker 1: tackle Ed Oliver, who's questionable with the toe tonight. Fortunately,

230
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: Jordan Phillips is good to go coming off that back

231
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: ailment that he suffered in last week's game against New England.

232
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's kind of backs are kind of scary. You

233
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 2: hit that rack disease and it's like the thing comes.

234
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: Well, especially when you're you're bent over in a three

235
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: point stance.

236
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 2: Putting your hand on the ground, Yes, putting your hand

237
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 2: on the ground, exploding out of it. It's you need

238
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 2: to be in shape.

239
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 1: Right, But as we know, Ed miss last week's game,

240
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 1: So the hope was that would give him enough time

241
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: to rest that toe to be ready for tonight. But

242
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: that's still a question mark. It's a short week, yeah,

243
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 1: going into Tonight's.

244
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 2: One issue comes now if Jordan Phillips goes, Ed Oliver's

245
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 2: out there and they're going to go, what happens if

246
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 2: both of them go down again?

247
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: Well, and that's why we're waiting, because the Bills have

248
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: until four o'clock to make a practice squad elevation and

249
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: we're anticipating that there will be probably a practice squad

250
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: elevation at the tight end position in the form of

251
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: undrafted rookie Joel Wilson. We're just guessing. We don't know this,

252
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 1: but this is an educated guest on our part. Knowing

253
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: you don't have Quintin Morris, you don't have Dawson Knox.

254
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: That leaves you basically with Reggie Gilliam and Dalton Kincaid

255
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 1: at the tight end position. You lose one of them

256
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 1: now you're supremely shorthanded. So our anticipation is that tight

257
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: end Joel Wilson, the undrafted rookie out of Central Michigan,

258
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: who's been here since training camp actually since the spring,

259
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: would be the practice squad elevation at that position. And

260
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 1: then if Ed Oliver is unable to go, I think

261
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 1: it's anti anticipated that Ilku, the defensive tackle who was

262
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: just signed back to the practice squad this week after

263
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: he was released by Atlanta, would be the practice squad

264
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: elevation for the d line.

265
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 2: So, I mean, is not is so new He's not

266
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 2: even on the website yet, right, so I don't know,

267
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 2: but he's been here before. Yeah, Yeah, here's a number

268
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 2: fifty one, he's played in games. They've also got to defense.

269
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 2: Andrew Brown on the on the he just got here too.

270
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 2: We just got here two weeks ago, A two weeks ago,

271
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 2: Kendall Vickers.

272
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: So there are options. But knowing the run defense has

273
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: has been substandard the last couple of weeks, wouldn't be

274
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 1: surprised if Aku, who is a true run stuffer, is

275
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: part of the equation. We'll have to wait and see.

276
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: Uh So that's that's on the injury front. Also the

277
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 1: other injury note, and I believe it was NFL Networks

278
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: Sean Rapaport that reported this. He said, the general feeling

279
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: is that Dawson Knox will be put on injured reserve,

280
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 1: which means he would not only miss this game, but

281
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 1: he would have to miss the next three due to

282
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: the risk surgery he is or has undergone. We don't

283
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: know if it's happened yet, but he will be undergoing

284
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: risk surgery, and that the general consensus is he is

285
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: likely to be placed on injured reserve.

286
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I don't think that's a surprise. Yeah it doesn't,

287
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 2: but it doesn't seem season ending.

288
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: No, Oh, absolutely not.

289
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 2: No. But he's that's gonna miss for it. And that's

290
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 2: the minimum, and that means they're gonna have to find

291
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 2: you know, they're gonna have to solidify the roster in

292
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 2: some way, shape or form, not only on the he's

293
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 2: just starting tight end. They gotta do and Kenkaid can

294
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 2: step in, but they can't. Here's the thing. Coaches will

295
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 2: never have a personnel group. They don't have backups for

296
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 2: every position for so they're not gonna go three tight ends.

297
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 2: And if they don't have three tight end, at least

298
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 2: they don't have four tight ends because they're not gonna

299
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 2: go into the game with four tight end, three tight

300
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 2: ends and have one of them go down and lose

301
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: that percentage of their playsheet, knowing that that play sheet

302
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 2: may help them win those plays. So they'll have a

303
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 2: spare human body for every personnel combination they can put

304
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 2: on the field. Right now, you have one healthy tight

305
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 2: end one you can't even go You can't even play

306
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 2: the game with one.

307
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: Right and I mean Reggie Gillian can double in that role.

308
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: He's in the tight end room all the time, but

309
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: he's not an ideal do everything that tight ends do

310
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: type candidate.

311
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 2: They would cobble it together and it seems to me

312
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 2: and I you you got to know that that's a

313
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 2: problem with their personnel combinations. It gives them less options.

314
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 2: It means they're going to have to do some things

315
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 2: they maybe normal wouldn't normally do, like go four wide

316
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 2: once in a while more or more. If they're going

317
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 2: to four wide ten percent of the time, they may

318
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 2: go four wide twenty percent of the time and use

319
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 2: up those reps that they would use in twelve personnel.

320
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: Which could beg The question is the practice squad elevation

321
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: or receiver instead of a tight end right would give

322
00:15:59,960 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: you indication as to which way the game is because

323
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: is headed tonight? If you got if you've got to

324
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: take up Andy Isabella and do not bring up Joel Wilson.

325
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 1: That's telling you what tells you everything?

326
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 2: Yes, and it's it's gonna be really interesting to see

327
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 2: what the inactive because you have five healthy receivers. Yeah,

328
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 2: your receivers.

329
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 1: Shorter, you're still on ir right.

330
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 2: You know those guys can play. They've been here since

331
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 2: training camp. Andy Isabella, he's flashed even in training camp.

332
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 2: You got all these guys are healthy in the receiver room,

333
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 2: and you've got some size too.

334
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 1: Is Justin Shorter's on IR. He's he's got to be

335
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: pretty close to coming back from his hamstring injury. We've

336
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 1: seen him training here. Yeah, so strength and conditioning staff, right,

337
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: I mean you go, We'll have to wait and see

338
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 1: four o'clock deadline for that.

339
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 2: I believe the wide receivers they've got on the practice

340
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 2: squad are listed.

341
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: Tyrell Shavers, Andy Isabella and there might be one more.

342
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 2: Brian Toms, Thomas Bran Thompson six to one and Buck

343
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 2: ninety five, Tyrrel Shavers six four to two eleven.

344
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you got Justin Shorter your draft choice on

345
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: IRS come back, we'll see.

346
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 2: And Joe Wilson because if Knox is going on, I

347
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 2: are there's a roster spot right there, that's right, and

348
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 2: you're gonna you're not gonna waste it. You're not gonna

349
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 2: go out there with forty six guys.

350
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 4: Yeah.

351
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:14,440

352
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 2: that has to be out at four?

353
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,880
Speaker 1: Is it at four four pm? I believe is the deadline?

354
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 2: Well makes a move, right, but the inactives are gonna

355
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 2: be like at six thirty.

356
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:27,119

00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 2: Five six forty five ninety minutes before kickoff. They got

358
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 2: to decide who's actually gonna get a game jersey, right,

359
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 2: and it'll be I mean the active you know, if

00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 2: they make a move at four o'clock, that'll give us

361
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 2: some inkling about what will happen. But before that, I

362
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 2: don't know.

363
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,199

379
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: a football relationship hotline issue last week, Steve, how did

380
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:27,360
Speaker 1: you make out?

381
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 5: So, guys, thanks for taking my call. This one's probably

382
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 5: gonna make you laugh. Two weeks ago I called you

383
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 5: and I told you that my family has understood my

384
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 5: love for the Bills and they they don't expect me

385
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 5: to be at things. Don't do you remember me calling?

386
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 2: We go about yet?

387
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:50,239
Speaker 5: So kind of a confession. My wife heard that.

388
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 6: Oh boy, she she was.

389
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 5: She actually got in her car and I had WG

390
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,439
Speaker 5: on in her WGR in her car last time I

391
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 5: was in it, and she was in her car and

392
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 5: she heard me call in. So she called me out

393
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 5: on it, and she said, can you take me on

394
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 5: a date on Sunday at one o'clock?

395
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 1: So she's pulling your chain a little bit here, she's

396
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 1: pulling my chain.

397
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 5: So I said, sure, can we go to a restaurant

398
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 5: that has TVs in it? And she said, I'm willing

399
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 5: to compromise if you are. So she totally called me

400
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 5: out on it. And that is the only person. So

401
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,679
Speaker 5: again I'm calling to confess that is the only person

402
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 5: that has control of my life that takes priority over

403
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,880
Speaker 5: the Bills games as my wife and that will never change.

404
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 5: So I hope she's listening to this one. But that's

405
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 5: that's where I stand with that guy.

406
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:45,160
Speaker 1: See, Steve, I gotta salute you on this. You still

407
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 1: you didn't give in completely. You came up with a

408
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 1: with a suitable compromise and it worked because your football

409
00:19:54,440 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: viewing priorities were not completely flushed down the toilet. So

410
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: not only do I salute you for staying true to

411
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: your football viewing priorities, I salute your wife as well

412
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: for being willing to compromise. That's a good lady. You

413
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: got there number one and number two you stuck to

414
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: what is important to you as well, which is Bill's football.

415
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: And that you get a salute from me, sir. Nice job.

Speaker 1: Well done.

417
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, and a little bit of a flex by your wife,

418
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 2: but yeah you can. I can. I can respect it.

419
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,920
Speaker 1: That was good. Good job, Steve, Nice good job. You

420
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: are a proud disciple of the football relationship hotline. Well done.

421
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 1: This is what it's all about, right there, and thanks

422
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 1: for following up. We always like to hear back from

423
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: you know, the people we provide advice to you to

424
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: see how it turned out, So there is a there's

425
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: a satisfied customer right there. You just just lesson learned.

426
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 1: If you're in your wife's car and you don't want

427
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 1: her listening to maybe calling into our show, you got

428
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,160
Speaker 1: to switch the station, not for you. Yeah, but who knows,

429
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 1: maybe he created a new listener.

430
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, completely busted though.

431
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: Well, well right, that is the danger there. Let's go

432
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 1: to Jack and Ken more next. What do you got first, Jack,

433
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: You're on One Bill's Live.

434
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 6: Okay, gentlemen, good the good thing we got going first tonight?

435
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 6: Falling away at home. Okay, that's what I gotta say.

436
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 6: But I got to say this too. If we lose tonight,

437
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,719
Speaker 6: we are not going to the super Bowl. We are

438
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 6: not mind lett even make the playoffs. So do we

439
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 6: make a change with the offensive coordinator our new head coach?

440
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 6: Because I think we should get an offensive head coach.

441
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 6: That's just my opinion, and I would like your answer here.

442
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 1: So uh, I don't before we answer that, who do

443
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: you want? Who do you want as a replacement right now?

444
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 6: For coaches?

445
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, if if your scenario comes to.

446
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 6: I want to ask you, another cousin, do whatever you

447
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,880
Speaker 6: have to do to get Buddha Baker, change somebody's contract.

448
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 6: Think that's a great linebacker corner? What is he a linebacker?

449
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 6: Defensive end? I think he's a linebackers.

450
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 1: It's safe.

451
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,639
Speaker 6: Okay, do what you gotta go to get them. I

452
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,439
Speaker 6: mean you need help on that defense. Okay. Yes, you

453
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 6: see Minnesota. You're watching it Monday night, Minnesota. You see

454
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 6: the head coach call plays. He did a lot of things.

455
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 6: He run the rehearse pass here or there. You know,

456
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,159
Speaker 6: he did different stuff. I give Dorsey the benefit of

457
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 6: the doubt, but now I cannot anymore.

458
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:27,439
Speaker 2: Thank you, all right, Jack, Jack, I kind of did.

459
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 2: I gotta disagree with you packing it in at for

460
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 2: and for Huh, Yeah, I gotta.

461
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: Disagree with you, That's what Jack was saying.

462
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I just got to disagree with you. They're

463
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 2: they're too good a team, uh Seohan McDermott has done

464
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 2: too good a job over the course of his career

465
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 2: here in Buffalo. They win sixty or seventy percent of

466
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 2: their games. You can say they you can say that

467
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 2: they're blind spot or the problem with this team is

468
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 2: that they they're not as good in close games as

469
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 2: they should be.

470
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: I'll listen to that.

471
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 2: But they're always the top three in scoring offensively despite

472
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 2: the fact that you think they have an incompetent offensive coordinator.

473
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 2: And you can say, you know, whatever you want to say.

474
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 2: I mean their top three and third down conversions there. Yeah,

475
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 2: second in the league in red zone touchdown percentage. I mean,

476
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 2: I don't know, I mean, I get it. We've I

477
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 2: think one thing that happens is we see him play

478
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 2: in week two, Week three, and week four, and we

479
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,199
Speaker 2: think it's gonna be like that for the rest of

480
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 2: our natural lives.

481
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: And that's not the way to lead, dude.

482
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,360
Speaker 2: That any way it works, We're gonna go through You're

483
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 2: gonna go through stretches like this. Even in Super Bowl years.

484
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: The San Francisco forty nine ers have lost two games

485
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: in a row. Okay, they were five and oh to start, So.

486
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 2: I mean, it's better and I'll say this, it's better

487
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 2: to do this like in the midpoint of the season

488
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 2: or late in the first half of the season where

489
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,399
Speaker 2: you kind of find yourself so that at the second

490
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 2: half of the season, a you start getting guys health

491
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 2: because they kind of make it through a tough stretch.

492
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,479
Speaker 2: You got a mini buy coming up and then in

493
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 2: three weeks after that, you got to buy a full

494
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 2: buy coming up. You get a little healthier, You get

495
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 2: some guys back on their feet, You maybe get knocks

496
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 2: back on the field. You get Von one hundred percent,

497
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,159
Speaker 2: Greg Russeau gets back to one hundred percent. Ed Oliver

498
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,439
Speaker 2: gets his toe over and they get a little more

499
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 2: time under the belt of of of Jordan Phillips back injury.

500
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 2: You know, you get some of these guys that have

501
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 2: a chance to maybe circle back and get back on

502
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 2: the field. You find out a little bit better of

503
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 2: who you are offensively, You get some guys that start to,

504
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 2: you know, work it with Josh and Blossom. I mean,

505
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 2: now's the time, You're right, nobody wants to lose a

506
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:47,160
Speaker 2: game like this tonight to Baker Mayfield and the Bucks.

507
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 2: They're in a bad division, they're second, They're a second

508
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 2: place in a bad division. Yeah, they're a five hundred

509
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:58,440
Speaker 2: team like the Bills are. You know, but I don't

510
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 2: think there's any reason to start throwing guys overboard and

511
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 2: halfway through a season where you're still playing football at

512
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 2: a pretty high level. Certainly, this is a team and

513
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 2: a franchise and a fan base that some of which

514
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 2: are sitting there tapping their toe waiting for the playoffs.

515
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 2: And you can you can pooh pooh whether you think

516
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 2: this team will make the playoffs. I think they're a

517
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 2: playoff team, and I think they're gonna I think they're

518
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,199
Speaker 2: gonna be there. And that's when it really begins. I

519
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 2: think for this franchise, no question, if they don't make

520
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 2: the playoffs, absolutely you're gonna be You're gonna have some bitter,

521
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 2: bitterly disappointed fans, including Brownie and I. But that's what

522
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 2: we're that's where we're getting. And I think a game

523
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,880
Speaker 2: like tonight, no question, they should win. They're a better team,

524
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 2: they're more talented, they have a better pedigree. At the

525
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 2: current moment, they're hard to beat. But if even if

526
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 2: they lose, to go four and four, there's still plenty

527
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 2: of football. And I still think we know from four

528
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 2: weeks ago when in weeks two, three, and four, there's

529
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 2: something under the hood that they've got to tap into.

530
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 2: If they don't do it tonight, you gotta hope they're

531
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 2: gonna do it later on. But you're right, time is

532
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 2: running out. But by no stretch of the imaginations is

533
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 2: some sort of must win.

534
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna remind you the last time they played

535
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: this Buccaneers team, they lost in overtime and had lost

536
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 1: three in a row to fall to seven and six

537
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: in Week fourteen, and then figured it out won their

538
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:35,679
Speaker 1: last four games, went to the AFC title game. No,

539
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: they went to the divisional play They wanted to take

540
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: divisional playoff. That was twenty twenty one. So so I

541
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: mean to pack it in eight games in? You know,

542
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 1: if at worst, your four and four to me is foolish, Like,

543
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: what are you in sports for? If you're giving up

544
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: after eight of your seventeen games have been played? I mean, seriously, Yeah,

545
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. With this team. There's only two tans

546
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: in the league that have double digit wins in each

547
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 1: of the last three seasons. You know. They are the

548
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 1: Bills and the Chiefs. That's it. That's the list. So

549
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 1: you want to give up after four and four?

550
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 2: Go ahead.

551
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sorry it didn't play out like you anticipated,

552
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 1: which was probably eight. No, but things happen in this league.

553
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: Let's go back to the phones, Barb and Holland is

554
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: up next? What do you got Barb?

555
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 7: Oh?

556
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,439
Speaker 8: Yes, Hi just wanted to say today I am so

557
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 8: tired of listening to these naysayers, these men that think,

558
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 8: oh my gosh, just the correct it, and that I'm

559
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 8: way back from the Jim Kelly days and you too teams,

560
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 8: And I'm going to tell you something. This is an

561
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 8: awesome team and they should just shut up. It's getting old.

562
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,640
Speaker 8: They're a good team, and I got one more opinion

563
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 8: about that. I'm sorry that what's this think got hurt

564
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 8: not but I'm not sorry that maybe they can throw

565
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 8: to Trent's sherfield that I have love and the many

566
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 8: he came here. Don't get the bollved you have disappointed.

567
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 8: I brought this up one other time. Yeah, very disappointed

568
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 8: Miami was that they lost him. Start throwing to him

569
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 8: and Star. Please let Josh be Josh. He's not a

570
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 8: pocket quarterback. He's an awesome quarterback and he'll be fine

571
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 8: if they just let him be him and do what

572
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 8: he does best.

573
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 6: Thank you, guys, Thanks.

574
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 1: Barb, barpreciate the phone call. Yeah, if you were listening

575
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 1: to the show yesterday, I was pleading, you know, with

576
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 1: knocks out, maybe that changes your personnel grouping usage a

577
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 1: little bit more. Maybe you're using more eleven personnel and

578
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: I think they owe it to themselves to at least

579
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 1: explore what trench Sherfield can do for this offense, because,

580
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: as I said on the show yesterday, you've got a

581
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 1: guy that was good enough to be the third option

582
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: in the Miami offense that also has Tyreek Hill and

583
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: Jalen Waddle. This guy was your third receiver in that crew. Like,

584
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,479
Speaker 1: at least explore what he can do for your offense.

585
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: And I don't feel they've done that yet. Maybe it

586
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: starts tonight.

587
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 2: I'll say this, it is for a lot of Bills fans.

588
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 2: It's kind of a cool thing, like who is gonna

589
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 2: fill this void by Knox? Is gonna be Kincaid alone?

590
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 2: Is he gonna do it by himself? And what's it

591
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 2: mean for the guys? Who? I mean, you got to

592
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 2: play eleven guys and somebody's gonna have to take the

593
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 2: field where Knocks would have or what they're gonna do,

594
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 2: or how they're gonna fill those snap that snap count

595
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 2: where they would have gone two tights where now they

596
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 2: don't or maybe they won't or maybe they will and

597
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 2: put somebody in there. It's fun to think about how

598
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 2: they're gonna do that and you know, obviously Barb is

599
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 2: one of those people. Surefield is certainly a candidate, and

600
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 2: you and I both think Isabella's got a chance at

601
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 2: it or shorter. They've got some guys that they can

602
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 2: put in there that have some you know, some promise.

603
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,760

Speaker 1: don't win. Vanduel an official sports betting partner of the

621
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills Field.

622
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 2: How are we doing?

623
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 3: I'm doing great, gentlemen.

624
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 7: Although I do have to say one thing about that promo, Brownie,

625
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 7: is that you said when the weather gets cold. It's

626
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 7: sixty eight degrees in Buffalo according to my weather apps.

627
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 7: So the weather isn't that cold yet.

628
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 2: No.

629
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 1: I didn't even bring a jacket for tonight. It's crazy, Yeah, beauty. Now,

630
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 1: of course there is snow in the forecast next week,

631
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 1: but we'll talk about that as a later Yeah, come on,

632
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: come on next week there.

633
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 3: Oh, you know what. Weirdly enough, guys, I've got stuff

634
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 3: on the calendar.

635
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 1: Ah, that's too bad.

636
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe the following week.

637
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: Now, you got Halloween stuff with the kids. I'm sure.

638
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 1: Let's begin here, right, Let's begin here at quarterback, as

639
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 1: we always do. And this guy is a little nicked up,

640
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: you know, managed to play last week. You know, how

641
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: do you gauge that? Sometimes you just stick the guy

642
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: in the lineup and then keep an eye on you know,

643
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 1: inactive lists and injury reports. I guess right.

644
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, And so the first player that you referencing is

645
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 7: Trevor Lawrence. And one of the nice things here is

646
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 7: that you've got pivot opportunities because he's priced at seventy

647
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 7: five hundred dollars and my lineup is actually going to

648
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 7: fall five hundred dollars short of the maximum allowable limit.

649
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 7: You can pivot from Trevor Lawrence. But the appeal that

650
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 7: the Steelers defense very very good upfront defending the run.

651
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 7: I'm pretty good at rushing the passer, not that great

652
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,959
Speaker 7: covering so far. They've had some moving pieces in the secondary.

653
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 7: Joey Porter Junior, their second round pick this year at

654
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 7: a Penn State, starting to play more and playing pretty well.

655
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 3: But get used to this game, as you're gonna hear quite.

656
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 7: A bit of Jacksonville Steelers love over the next handful

657
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 7: of minutes here as we unveil this entire lineup.

658
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 2: What do you give for those people who are kind

659
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 2: of novices at this ultimate fantasy lineup? Why is Trevor

660
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 2: Lawrence so cheap?

661
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 3: Yeah?

662
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 7: So he has been relatively and effective this year compared

663
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 7: to other starting quarterbacks in Fantasy. I mean, Josh and

664
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 7: Patrick and Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts have sort of

665
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 7: been the cream of the crop this year for fantasy,

666
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 7: along with Justin Herbert. But Trevor Lawrence has just not

667
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 7: been nearly as effective as he thought he would be

668
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 7: coming into this season. Passing touchdowns not quite there, and

669
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 7: not a ton of rushing upside so far. He'd run

670
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,959
Speaker 7: the football well last Thursday Night against the Saints, but

671
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 7: he has sort of been down this year. Steve, And

672
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 7: what you're doing in daily fantasy, though, is you're not

673
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 7: necessarily looking for the players that are the obvious picks.

674
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 7: You're looking for the value plays, and you're also looking

675
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 7: for some different differentiators. You don't want to have the

676
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 7: same line of that you fork has that everybody else

677
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 7: is going to have, because only one person wins in

678
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 7: daily fantasy, if depending on the format of daily fantasy

679
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 7: that you are playing, but only a certain number of

680
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:45,400
Speaker 7: people do win per week. So just picking the chalky

681
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 7: estimated players is not going to work out for you

682
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:49,280
Speaker 7: in daily fantas.

683
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 1: All right, So let's move along to the running back spots.

684
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 1: And you know you've got one guy in the AFCs,

685
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 1: actually one guy in the AFC South, one guy in

686
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 1: the AFC North, and one guy on a team that

687
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 1: every year it seems like the running back position turns

688
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 1: into a mosh pit. And here we are again with Baltimore.

689
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 7: That's right, So let's go through these running backs, and

690
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,839
Speaker 7: that's Damian Pierce at sixty seven hundred dollars and then

691
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 7: Gus Edwards the mosh pit that you were referencing, Brownie,

692
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 7: And you're right. Somehow the Ravens are always banged up

693
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 7: in that backfield. Probably pays credence to the idea of

694
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 7: always having lots of depth in your backfield. Another one

695
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 7: of these guys catches a lot of passes, which gives

696
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 7: me a little bit of pause. You might notice, though,

697
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 7: that I'm paying down at running back in this case.

698
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,680
Speaker 7: Both players under seven thousand dollars open some things up

699
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 7: a little bit later on. I always like to sort

700
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 7: of leave as much money as possible, or see how

701
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,359
Speaker 7: much I have left over for my flex, and then

702
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,359
Speaker 7: I can make a decision about how big I want

703
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 7: to go once I get to my flex. Edwards did

704
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 7: have an eighty yard catch last week, and it feels

705
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:51,880
Speaker 7: like he has been the better of the two running

706
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 7: backs for Baltimore.

707
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 3: Heat and Justice Hill.

708
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,840
Speaker 7: So give me Gus Edwards though, a moderately priced running

709
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 7: back to pair with Damian Pierce. Pierce a matchup play

710
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 7: because Carolina has just been bad defending opposing running backs

711
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:04,720
Speaker 7: this season.

712
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 2: And as you move down you get to these wide receivers,

713
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 2: you started stacking into these games and double dipping with

714
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 2: the Jaguars.

715
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, so two receivers from the Jaguars of the three

716
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 7: that we have in there in total Josh downs first

717
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 7: one up for the Colts. Actually sixty one hundred dollars

718
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 7: is his price. Meanwhile, Calvin Ridley and Christian Kirk priced

719
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 7: at sixty eight hundred and seven thousand, respectively. The Steelers

720
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 7: have allowed the third most fantasy points per game two

721
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:33,799
Speaker 7: opposing wide receivers in fan dual scoring formats. So that's

722
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 7: a good opportunity to take advantage of a bad secondary

723
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 7: with two players at their very best who can be awesome.

724
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 2: Right.

725
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,359
Speaker 7: Ridley is a super talented guy for Jacksonville. He's just

726
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 7: been so up and down. Kirk has been more steady Eddy.

727
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 7: But in some ways Calvin Ridley is actually kind of

728
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,720
Speaker 7: the alluring play for daily fantasy because As I mentioned,

729
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 7: you don't just attack the guys who do exactly what

730
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 7: you expect them to do in every single position. You

731
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 7: need some high variants play because oftentimes those high variance

732
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:06,400
Speaker 7: players are marked down, and that's the case for Calvin Ridley. Meanwhile,

733
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 7: Josh Dowen's a player I really like for the Colts

734
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 7: third round pick out of North Carolina this year. He

735
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 7: faces off against the Saints, and if you're going to

736
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 7: attack the Saints through the air, it's much better to

737
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 7: do it in the slot than it is to do

738
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 7: it on the perimeter. Marshawn Lattimore with their outstanding perimeter

739
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 7: corner one of several good perimeter corners that the Saints have,

740
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:28,719
Speaker 7: so Downs perhaps is the more useful Colts receiver this

741
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 7: week because he probably won't draw the top defenders and coverage.

742
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and since Gardner Minshew has been in the lineup,

743
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 1: he's been using the middle of the field more than

744
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: the outside, so much so that Michael Pittman's a little

745
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,240
Speaker 1: cross with what his role has been in the offense,

746
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: and Downs has kind of surged to the top of

747
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 1: the target board there for the Colts. So I actually

748
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 1: like that pick A lot is.

749
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 2: This the first week you've had an Arizona cardinal on

750
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 2: your roster.

751
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 3: It probably is really close, Steve.

752
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 7: And by the way, you should know that there are

753
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,359
Speaker 7: no no Bills eligible for this game. It's they play

754
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 7: Thursday nights, so you can't have a Bills player in

755
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 7: a Sunday slate snow Bills, no Buccaneers. But yes, we

756
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 7: have a couple of We have a cardinal in the

757
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,400
Speaker 7: matchup today and that is Frey McBride. You guys promised

758
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,280
Speaker 7: on the news that Zach Erz said it for ir

759
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,880
Speaker 7: Urtz has been a busy player for the Cardinals this season,

760
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:16,760
Speaker 7: went healthy, McBride trending up, and the Cardinals, for whatever reason,

761
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 7: they really targeted their tight ends. A lot part of

762
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,440
Speaker 7: me wonders if that's an inexperienced quarterback in Josh Dobbs

763
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 7: sort of still learning the offense on the fly.

764
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 3: Here.

765
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,280
Speaker 7: Is it possible that Kyler Murray plays on Sunday. It

766
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 7: is He's been a full participate in practice so far

767
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 7: this week. That would only boost the value of Trey

768
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 7: McBride in a game in which it wouldn't surprise me

769
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 7: if they are playing from behind against the Baltimore Ratings.

770
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 1: All right, and then the flex and this is a

771
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,280
Speaker 1: flex by you in terms of spending My goodness.

772
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 3: That's right, Christian McCaffrey.

773
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,239
Speaker 7: I mentioned earlier Roundie that hey, I kind of just

774
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 7: get through my normal positions, see how much I have

775
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 7: left over for the flex spot, and I found some

776
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,800
Speaker 7: value plays. So Christian McCaffrey checks in at two hundred

777
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:01,879
Speaker 7: dollars in. McCaffrey has been so oh unbelievably reliable. I mean,

778
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 7: pick a stat for Christian McCaffrey. It's probably gonna be

779
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 7: one of your favorite stats because in twenty one games

780
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 7: with the San Francisco forty nine ers, he's accounted for

781
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 7: twenty five touchdowns, twenty four on the ground or as

782
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,600
Speaker 7: a receiver, plus one as a passer for good measure. Meanwhile,

783
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 7: he scored a touchdown in sixteen straight games. I mean,

784
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,760
Speaker 7: touchdowns are supposed to be a hard thing to predict

785
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 7: in my industry, the fantasy football community, they are not

786
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 7: with Christian McCaffrey.

787
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 3: That could be the case.

788
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 7: Moreover, this week, without Deebo Samuel once again and perhaps

789
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:33,920
Speaker 7: no brock Perty, it would only stand to reason that

790
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 7: they say feed it more to Christian McCaffrey.

791
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 2: And interestingly enough, you took the Atlanta Falcons defense. I

792
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 2: know it's kind of a throwaway, but going into Tennessee

793
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 2: and even on the road, Tennessee absolutely struggling, Ryan Tannehill

794
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,920
Speaker 2: not in the lineup, I mean, that's a nice place

795
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 2: to get some value.

796
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 7: Perhaps, Yeah, let's take advantage of these inexperienced quarterbacks. Malik

797
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 7: Willis played for the Titans when Tannehill got hurt almost

798
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 7: two weeks ago in that game against the Ravens, and

799
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 7: Willis looked bad. It took a ton of sacks. It

800
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 7: was amazing. Tannehill had not been sacked that much throughout

801
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,799
Speaker 7: the course of the game. Willis took several sacks. In

802
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 7: a much smaller sample size, will Levis could play a

803
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 7: lot as well. Bill Levis has never taken an NFL

804
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,880
Speaker 7: snap of consequence. So you'd think that a Titans offensive

805
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 7: line at struggling, multiplied by a quarterback who whoever it is,

806
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 7: hasn't really played that much football, kind of the perfect

807
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 7: storm there for the Falcons, whose defense has been good.

808
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 7: By the way, the Falcons got to be one of

809
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 7: the stranger teams in the NFL right now they're four

810
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 7: and three. I'm not totally sold on them, but if

811
00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 7: you had to ask me where they're playing in January,

812
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,240
Speaker 7: I'd say probably a home game of the playoffs against

813
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 7: the Dallas Cowboys in the wild card round because of

814
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:47,239
Speaker 7: how weak the NFC South is once again, so an

815
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 7: interesting team to figure out and a defense that has

816
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 7: been pretty darn good so far this season.

817
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:52,879
Speaker 2: Yeah.

818
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: The microcosm with them to their season was last week

819
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 1: because we were watching it to get ready for this

820
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 1: game against the Bucks tonight. For the shows three red

821
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 1: zone turnovers and still win the game at the gun

822
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,320
Speaker 1: with a fifty one yard field goal over the Bucks

823
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 1: last week. It's unbelievable like that, They're just you don't

824
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,479
Speaker 1: know what to get from them, but they're hanging in there.

825
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: They're hanging in there.

826
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 3: Quick, They're hanging in there. That's right. Quickly a field

827
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 3: talent on both sides of the ball.

828
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, quickly, field. Because you reported this earlier this week,

829
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 1: you were the first to report that the Bills three

830
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:28,760
Speaker 1: structured Dion Dawkins contract to create more cap space. Of course,

831
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 1: that leads everyone to believe that Brandon Bean is sniffing

832
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,840
Speaker 1: around to try to make some kind of a trade

833
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 1: before the deadline to help a roster that has lost

834
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,360
Speaker 1: three All Pro players on the defensive side of the ball.

835
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 1: Any thoughts as to what could be pulled away from

836
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,720
Speaker 1: another roster that could help in maybe one of those areas,

837
00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,400
Speaker 1: because all three levels if Buffalo's defense have been affected.

838
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, I feel like I owe you guys the responsible

839
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,560
Speaker 7: answer and sort of the wishful thinking answer. I'll start

840
00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 7: with the wishful thinking one, which is, hey, they have

841
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 7: some now to potentially make a trade, and you know,

842
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 7: whether it's a cornerback, whether it's more edge rushing help.

843
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:09,879
Speaker 7: I don't know there's that many linebackers available right now

844
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,280
Speaker 7: that can help fill in some of the steps vacated

845
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 7: by Matt Milano's absence.

846
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 3: Probably the responsible take.

847
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 7: If Brandon's watching this right now, he probably will appreciate this,

848
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:19,839
Speaker 7: although he's got a lot of things on his mind.

849
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,720
Speaker 7: Before game day, the Bills were at the very bottom

850
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 7: of the NFL in terms of available cap space, And

851
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 7: if you're going to dip into a player's salary and

852
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 7: convert it into a signing boats to create cap space,

853
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 7: the earlier you do it in the season, the more

854
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,920
Speaker 7: cap space you can create. Even if you don't use

855
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 7: it at the end of the year, you can carry

856
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,440
Speaker 7: it over to the following year. So it sort of

857
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:42,200
Speaker 7: struck me as probably more just for roster management. However,

858
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:44,040
Speaker 7: if they want to make a trade, they now have

859
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 7: more resources to do so than they did four or

860
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:46,839
Speaker 7: five days ago.

861
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and at this point of the season, I know

862
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 2: they set this trade deadline up for a reason. What

863
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,279
Speaker 2: do you think if you look around the landscape, give

864
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 2: us maybe a fistful of teams that you think maybe

865
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,839
Speaker 2: are going to be players in that sweep stakes right

866
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 2: at the deadline.

867
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, so I think teams at the top that have

868
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 7: obviously Buffalo would be one of them, because even if

869
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:12,799
Speaker 7: the cap space is going to make it tough like

870
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:15,719
Speaker 7: a team that I still believe Buffalo is very best,

871
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:17,440
Speaker 7: is one of the very best in the NFL. It's

872
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 7: about consistency, right The Chiefs certainly a team is going

873
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,959
Speaker 7: to be sniffing around because they are once again very good.

874
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 7: But they do have a couple of things I think

875
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,680
Speaker 7: they want to add some depth to The Eagles have

876
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 7: already done some work. Wouldn't be surprised if they continue

877
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,759
Speaker 7: to sort of sniff around and then the Ravens, a

878
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,359
Speaker 7: team that has kind of shown just how capable it

879
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 7: can be on any given Sunday, but does have some

880
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,719
Speaker 7: spots on the roster that I think need a little

881
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 7: bit of addressing. So probably you could file those answers

882
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:47,360
Speaker 7: under the expected slash usual suspects. But we have gotten

883
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 7: far enough into the NFL season where I think I

884
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:51,359
Speaker 7: kind of have a feel for the teams that are

885
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 7: sort of the real contenders versus the ones that are

886
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:56,720
Speaker 7: maybe the middle class versus the ones that are probably

887
00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 7: trending towards eyes on twenty twenty four.

888
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:02,880
Speaker 1: All right, Field, thanks as always. We'll catch up with

889
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:03,439

00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:13,320
Speaker 1: I actually had a Snapdragon apple with my lunch yesterday

907
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:15,920
Speaker 1: that I actually brought in for you. I had some

908
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,360
Speaker 1: leftover pasta and I capped it off with an apple.

909
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:19,799
Speaker 1: Can you taste the apple in there?

910
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:19,960
Speaker 8: Oh?

933
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: I have, I have.

934
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:30,359
Speaker 2: It was really good.

935
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:33,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, they were good. And we had that chicken

936
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 1: salad recipe and the apples were sliced like cracker thin,

937
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:41,319
Speaker 1: So instead of using a cracker, use an apple slice.

938
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,320
Speaker 1: Now it's even healthier, no carbs.

939
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:45,920
Speaker 2: I like it when we get people who know food

940
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:47,560
Speaker 2: to help us out. But I was telling us try

941
00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 2: new things. Yeah, I was telling I wouldn't have tried

942
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:50,200
Speaker 2: it otherwise.

943
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 1: I was telling my wife the other day because she

944
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:56,240
Speaker 1: makes a lot of smoothies for breakfast for herself and mine.

945
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:59,319
Speaker 1: She uses fruit, and I said, hey, why don't we

946
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:01,960
Speaker 1: slice up some of these snap dragon apples and throw

947
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,759
Speaker 1: those in there? Because she doesn't really she's kind of

948
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 1: a whenever she's making anything, she never measures. She doesn't

949
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 1: like go by a strict ingredient list. She can. I

950
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 1: call her the whip it up chef because she can

951
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:19,319
Speaker 1: just she's throw stuff together and whip it up. She scilian, yes,

952
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:24,359
Speaker 1: said half anyway, and she and she threw some snapdragon

953
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 1: apples in a smoothie that wasn't the Red Rooster, but

954
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 1: it was just as good because she can just throw

955
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 1: stuff together and it tastes great, like she just has

956
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,759
Speaker 1: that knack for doing that. But I gotta I gotta

957
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:35,239
Speaker 1: get her to try to make this one, because this

958
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:38,320
Speaker 1: is pretty pretty good stuff. Because you know, you get

959
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 1: you get smoothies, and some people are like, you gotta

960
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 1: throw veggies in there. I am not a veggie smoothie person.

961
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 1: So knowing that like snapdragon apples are are an option

962
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:51,880
Speaker 1: and a pretty good one based on how this thing tastes,

963
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:54,839
Speaker 1: I'm going I'm gonna be pushing the fruit route even

964
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 1: more with the smoothies and home.

965
00:46:56,680 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I'm more of a fruit smoothie then I

966
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 2: am a vegetable smoothie.

967
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:03,000
Speaker 1: Right.

968
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 2: You know I'm not saying, and there's some people I'm

969
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 2: not saying, don't do Listen. You can make a smoothie

970
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:09,759
Speaker 2: as good as you want, putting anything in it. I mean,

971
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:10,239
Speaker 2: you know what I mean.

972
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:14,000
Speaker 1: But apples are naturally sweet, so that's what is the

973
00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,359
Speaker 1: appeal like. If you're gonna have a smoothie, at least

974
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:20,239
Speaker 1: make it fun. So Snapdragon Apples certainly do that. So

975
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,760
Speaker 1: thanks to the folks at Wegmans and at Snapdragon Apples.

976
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 1: For the Red Rooster Smoothie, as we said, Wegmans dot

977
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 1: com and then search for the red Rooster smoothie. Just

978
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:34,399
Speaker 1: put that in the search bar and the recipe will

979
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,920

Speaker 1: And then if you want to know, if for some

983
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 1: reason there isn't a Wegmans in your immediate area, you

Speaker 1: solutions for you. But let's go to the phones. We've

1025
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,319
Speaker 1: had some people waiting patiently and to Tony on a

1026
00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 1: cell to lead us off. What do you got, Tony.

1027
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:40,320
Speaker 4: Hey, good afternoon, guys. Thanks for taking my car A

1028
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:43,840
Speaker 4: question engaged towards Steve Tasker because you would probably know best, Steve.

1029
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:48,080
Speaker 4: You know Jim Kelly pretty well on and off the field,

1030
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 4: and it is on field demeanor in you know, I

1031
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:56,240
Speaker 4: see Josh Allen being very very similar to Jim Kelly

1032
00:50:56,440 --> 00:51:01,320
Speaker 4: on the field, and you see him that Nohalla offense,

1033
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 4: and it seems to be the most efficient formation they run.

1034
00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 4: I don't know if you guys could take a look

1035
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:11,480
Speaker 4: at the three wide receiver single back set and see

1036
00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:16,720
Speaker 4: how many positive plays come from that versus other formations.

1037
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:20,680
Speaker 4: I'd be interested to know. But I would love to

1038
00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:22,680
Speaker 4: see that. I would love to see it run the

1039
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 4: full time as fast as they possibly could in today's NFL,

1040
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:28,920
Speaker 4: because I know that the rules are a little bit

1041
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:32,200
Speaker 4: different from back when you guys were playing and running

1042
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:36,879
Speaker 4: that offense like full tilt. Just your thoughts on that, thanks.

1043
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:39,520
Speaker 1: Sure thing, Tony.

1044
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:44,200
Speaker 2: Here's what's intriguing about it to me? You got you

1045
00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:46,560
Speaker 2: gotta find a way to stay on the field, no question,

1046
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 2: because you can't go out there and go one, two,

1047
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:53,160
Speaker 2: three and out and you had twenty seconds of time

1048
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 2: of possession and put your defense back out there. Series

1049
00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:01,040
Speaker 2: after series after series. You need some dudes. The Bills

1050
00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 2: had five Hall of Famers, Jim, Andre Thurman and James Lofton.

1051
00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:12,000
Speaker 2: Four of those Hall of Famers were on the offense,

1052
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:15,719
Speaker 2: and you had Kent Hall and Will Wolford and yet

1053
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:20,440
Speaker 2: I mean some Hall of Fame caliber players also upfront.

1054
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,399
Speaker 1: And the big old players anyway, Yes, and.

1055
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,040
Speaker 2: Also maybe one at the time when they started their

1056
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:27,880
Speaker 2: no huddle, it was one of the biggest offensive lines

1057
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:32,839
Speaker 2: in football, so they leaned on some people. And he had,

1058
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:35,800
Speaker 2: of course Hall of Famer Bruce Smith and Corneis Bennett,

1059
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:37,759
Speaker 2: who was another All Pro caliber player on the other side.

1060
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,080
Speaker 2: So we had some dudes to run it right, and

1061
00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:42,759
Speaker 2: Darryl Talley and yeah, you g had Ted Washington, maybe

1062
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 2: the greatest run stuffing defensive tackle of all time. So

1063
00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 2: you had some dudes that could run it. But ye,

1064
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:57,719
Speaker 2: and yes, it is really intriguing to think about Josh

1065
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 2: running this no huddle and going fast and the pressure

1066
00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:03,000
Speaker 2: it puts on a defense. I know Kent Hall used

1067
00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:06,480
Speaker 2: to say, once we get you get a first down,

1068
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 2: and you get about just like four plays into a

1069
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 2: no huddle drive, there is no pass rush.

1070
00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 1: They're done because they're gas.

1071
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 2: They're gas.

1072
00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:18,719
Speaker 1: They just they can't sub them out.

1073
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:21,360
Speaker 2: They are leaning on the kids say, we're just holding

1074
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:23,040
Speaker 2: them up. Basically.

1075
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:26,480
Speaker 1: Howie Long has talked about that.

1076
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:31,840
Speaker 2: Right, and it's it's it's a problem, but you gotta

1077
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:38,319
Speaker 2: get first downs, you gotta make it work, and if

1078
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:43,160
Speaker 2: you don't, it's just as effective on their side of

1079
00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:45,720
Speaker 2: the ball as as you hoped it would be on yours.

1080
00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:47,160
Speaker 2: It's a two edged sword.

1081
00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:54,200
Speaker 1: I would say Allen and Jim are most similar in

1082
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:58,160
Speaker 1: their competitive fire and will to win. I think that

1083
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:01,760
Speaker 1: is where you draw maybe the most obvious parallels between

1084
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:06,320
Speaker 1: those two guys. Winning is the of the utmost importance

1085
00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:09,800
Speaker 1: to both of them, and they will not do anything

1086
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:12,879
Speaker 1: remotely selfish, even though they have the ball in their

1087
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:17,760
Speaker 1: hands on every single play, if it compromises the team winning.

1088
00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,480
Speaker 1: And that's not the case with every quarterback in football.

1089
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:26,640
Speaker 1: Some some quarterbacks are me guys, not those two. So

1090
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 1: that's that's the other thing to that I thought was

1091
00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 1: worth mentioning as well. This week's game against the Bucks

1092

1095
00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:43,160
Speaker 1: Johny ere one Bill's Live.

1096
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:44,880
Speaker 5: Hey fellas.

1097
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,480
Speaker 9: Yeah, Actually, I'm in town for the game. Drove up

1098
00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:50,880
Speaker 9: from Pittsburgh originally from here a former season take a holder.

1099
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,400
Speaker 9: Great to talk to you guys again. Been listening waiting

1100
00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 9: to go to the game. I have one quick point

1101
00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:59,880
Speaker 9: in two questions for you. You know I've been listening

1102
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:06,759
Speaker 9: for a while. You know, parody this league like I've

1103
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:08,319
Speaker 9: never seen before, and I'm not going to go down

1104
00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:10,200
Speaker 9: the rabbit hole or put on my tinfoil hat as

1105
00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:13,480
Speaker 9: far as officiating, but if you watch last week and

1106
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:17,800
Speaker 9: you watch the season, there really is no like really

1107
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:20,399
Speaker 9: really bad team. There's a lot of parody in this league.

1108
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,839
Speaker 9: And that's the way the NFL likes it. Looking at

1109
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:26,480
Speaker 9: the schedule ahead, the latter half of the schedule for

1110
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:32,480
Speaker 9: the Bills is a buzzsaw. So being surrounded by Pittsburgh

1111
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:36,400
Speaker 9: sports talk radio, all you hear about is their offensive coordinator.

1112
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:39,560
Speaker 9: All you hear about is no identity. So here's my

1113
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:40,479
Speaker 9: question for you guys.

1114
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:41,280
Speaker 8: I have two questions.

1115
00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,680
Speaker 9: First, what is the Bill's identity? It's more of a

1116
00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:47,600
Speaker 9: sports talk radio question, what is the Bill's identity with

1117
00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 9: the injuries? Defense? Offensive minded? They're you know, they're not

1118
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:54,360
Speaker 9: lights out on offense. They got a lot of injuries,

1119
00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:57,680
Speaker 9: injuries aside, what is their identity? And number two, if

1120
00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:59,799
Speaker 9: you look at what they've done with Tyreek Hill in

1121
00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:03,640
Speaker 9: my Miami with the motion and getting real dynamic with

1122
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,920
Speaker 9: that offense. Steph Diggs doesn't have that speed, but he

1123
00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:10,120
Speaker 9: does have the ability to draw defenders and get double

1124
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:13,759
Speaker 9: teams and a lot of attention. Do you foresee or

1125
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:17,160
Speaker 9: how can we exacerbate that?

1126
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:18,480
Speaker 6: How can we make that?

1127
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:22,040
Speaker 9: Do you see him potentially being a decoy with this

1128
00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:23,240
Speaker 9: offense going forward?

1129
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:26,120
Speaker 2: Yeah? All right, good stuff. Thanks for the call, Johnny.

1130
00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:28,640
Speaker 2: I appreciate it. All that stuff you said is right.

1131
00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:31,560
Speaker 2: It's a tough league to win in officiating aside, and

1132
00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:34,640
Speaker 2: there's a lot of conversation about you know, it's a

1133
00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:38,320
Speaker 2: bad weekend around the league. Some upsets happened last week.

1134
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:42,319
Speaker 2: There aren't any really bad teams. A Bill's schedule coming

1135
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 2: up is a buzz saw the Bills. I d what

1136
00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:49,520
Speaker 2: the Bills? You're right? I think we knew we found

1137
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:51,719
Speaker 2: out who they were weeks two, three, and four, and

1138
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:55,000
Speaker 2: then their defense got decimated by injuries. And now I

1139
00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:57,359
Speaker 2: think they may be trying to play a little bit

1140
00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:00,880
Speaker 2: of you know, have their offense be a little bit

1141
00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:06,480
Speaker 2: of a safety net for their defense. Maybe, but I

1142
00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 2: still think you're out there trying to score every single series,

1143
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,920
Speaker 2: no question about it. What the Bills offense is identity,

1144
00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 2: what his identity is. In the first month of the season,

1145
00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:19,320
Speaker 2: when they were healthy, their Bills defense was about pass

1146
00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:23,720
Speaker 2: rush and turnovers. I think they're still looking for what

1147
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:25,840
Speaker 2: they can be now. They don't know because they're now

1148
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:27,520
Speaker 2: they're switching guys out up front. They don't know what

1149
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:32,440
Speaker 2: they're gonna be from week to week. Offensively, I think

1150
00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 2: they've struggled to stay on the field enough. Especially last week,

1151
00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:41,360
Speaker 2: they ran into a team that had a really good

1152
00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:43,320
Speaker 2: game plan. In fact, I thought I heard somebody saying,

1153
00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:45,520
Speaker 2: I think they're right. I think Bill Belichick and the

1154
00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:49,280
Speaker 2: New England Patriots spent the entire offseason formulating the game

1155
00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:51,440
Speaker 2: plan that they executed against the Bills. On that game,

1156
00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:56,280
Speaker 2: the Bills were crushing that team. The one the Patriots

1157
00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:58,320
Speaker 2: were one and six against the Bills over the last

1158
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:01,320
Speaker 2: three years, one and sick, and the one they won

1159
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:05,080
Speaker 2: was that win game where they ran the football through

1160
00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:07,880
Speaker 2: it three times. So they they needed a plan, and

1161
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 2: I think they spent weeks upon weeks formulating a game

1162
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:14,080
Speaker 2: plan in the off season about what they were going

1163
00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:16,440
Speaker 2: to do when they got the Bills into New England,

1164
00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:18,439
Speaker 2: and I think they executed it to perfection and won

1165
00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:21,120
Speaker 2: by you know, by three point three points.

1166
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:23,760
Speaker 1: That are four points.

1167
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:26,440
Speaker 2: It's a tough league to win in. So I offensively,

1168
00:58:26,880 --> 00:58:31,920
Speaker 2: I think the Bills when they don't look good, I

1169
00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:34,040
Speaker 2: think it's hard for I think they really struggled to

1170
00:58:34,040 --> 00:58:36,880
Speaker 2: climb out of the you know, out of a slow start.

1171
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 2: Took them three quarters against the Giants. They never got

1172
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 2: out of it against the Jacksonville Jaguars, and last week

1173
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 2: maybe late in the game, they late in the game,

1174
00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:49,480
Speaker 2: maybe you know what I mean. So I think I

1175
00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:53,280
Speaker 2: think they struggled to find answers early enough until they

1176
00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:54,919
Speaker 2: get a handle on what the defense is doing.

1177
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:57,960
Speaker 1: I'll I'll just say this. I think first month of

1178
00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:01,400
Speaker 1: the season they looked to commit to a high efficiency

1179
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:05,720
Speaker 1: model of play on offense, short passes, high percentage throws,

1180
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:08,840
Speaker 1: moved the football that way, win in the red zone

1181
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:12,280
Speaker 1: by running the football they ran the football extraordinarily well

1182
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:14,360
Speaker 1: in the red zone in the first month of the season,

1183
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 1: maybe better than we had ever seen it before, and

1184
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:18,960
Speaker 1: I think that gave them a false sense of security

1185
00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:21,760
Speaker 1: that they did not need to run Josh because of it.

1186
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:27,760
Speaker 1: What happened with that, An unintended consequence of that is

1187
00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:31,720
Speaker 1: defenses no longer prepared for Josh Allen the runner in

1188
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,800
Speaker 1: any way, shape or form. Through seven games, he has

1189
00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:38,400
Speaker 1: less than one designed run per game. He has five

1190
00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:42,240
Speaker 1: point five scrambles on dropbacks per game. It's down three

1191
00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:45,920
Speaker 1: per game. Teams do not worry about him running anymore

1192
00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:48,760
Speaker 1: because of that. So there's an unintended consequence that I

1193
00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:52,360
Speaker 1: think has cost versatility and diversity to your offense. That's

1194
00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:56,640
Speaker 1: number one. Number two. I think that in light of

1195
00:59:56,680 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 1: the injuries, as Steve pointed out, on the defensive side

1196
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:02,040
Speaker 1: of the ball, they they now have realized they have

1197
01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:06,360
Speaker 1: to lean on their offense to provide more points sooner

1198
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:09,880
Speaker 1: in games, to let the one thing that remains intact

1199
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:13,920
Speaker 1: on their defense, their pass rush, to be most effective.

1200
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:18,160
Speaker 1: It is most effective when your offense has given you

1201
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:21,200
Speaker 1: a ten to fourteen point lead, because the other team

1202
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:23,720
Speaker 1: has to throw the football to keep up with you.

1203
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,280
Speaker 1: They have to get back to that. I think they

1204
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,640
Speaker 1: know it, and I think we will start to see

1205
01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:31,280
Speaker 1: it here tonight. Last thing that he asked about was

1206
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:34,360
Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs, right, I think the Bills have moved him

1207
01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:37,280
Speaker 1: around a lot already. They've lined him up in the backfield.

1208
01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 1: They've used late motion right before the snap. They've taken

1209
01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:43,640
Speaker 1: pages out of the Miami playbook, out of the San

1210
01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:47,960
Speaker 1: Francisco playbook where this late motion creates problems for the

1211
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:51,560
Speaker 1: opposing defense. They're never gonna use. I mean, there might

1212
01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:54,080
Speaker 1: be a few instances where they use Stefan Diggs as

1213
01:00:54,080 --> 01:00:56,240
Speaker 1: a decoy, but you don't make a habit of that.

1214
01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,760
Speaker 1: Teams too important and too productives.

1215
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:00,880
Speaker 2: Teams are struggling to stop take him out of the office.

1216
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:03,080
Speaker 2: He had twelve targets last week. Now, a couple of

1217
01:01:03,160 --> 01:01:05,520
Speaker 2: them were bad throws by Josh. They had twelve targets,

1218
01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:08,880
Speaker 2: he had six catches. Still catches the ball that not

1219
01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 2: at a really good rate, despite last week with six

1220
01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:15,560
Speaker 2: incompletions when he was targeted. He's really a tough guy

1221
01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:17,480
Speaker 2: to stop. So they're gonna They're gonna keep throwing him

1222
01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:19,400
Speaker 2: the football. Josh here, gona keep throwing him the football.

1223
01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:21,080
Speaker 2: He's an elite wide receivers, at the top of the

1224
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:26,680
Speaker 2: league in receptions, yards, all that stuff. They're not. Teams

1225
01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:30,200
Speaker 2: will attempt to take him away, and yes, the Bills

1226
01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:34,560
Speaker 2: will use that to their advantage at times, but teams

1227
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:36,280
Speaker 2: have been trying to take him away for four years

1228
01:01:36,320 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 2: and the guy still, you know, is still racking up numbers.

1229
01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:44,360
Speaker 2: So Josh is gonna look for him, Dorris is gonna

1230
01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:49,800
Speaker 2: call his number. He's gonna remain productive. And so when

1231
01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:52,240
Speaker 2: they can use that to their benefit for another guy

1232
01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:56,520
Speaker 2: to get some targets, they will, But I don't. But

1233
01:01:56,560 --> 01:01:59,160
Speaker 2: there's no reason to think that Steph Diggs is getting

1234
01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:05,960
Speaker 2: the ball more than he should. The guy's productive, here's productive.

1235
01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:09,560
Speaker 1: Here's a stat that is interesting though. Since last season,

1236
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:15,400
Speaker 1: when Diggs gets fewer than ten targets a game, the

1237
01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:18,680
Speaker 1: Bills are ten and zero. This season, when he has

1238
01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:22,600
Speaker 1: gotten more than ten targets, Buffalo is two and three

1239
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:25,840
Speaker 1: in terms of one lost record. Let's go back to

1240
01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:28,680
Speaker 1: the phones and to Gina in Delaware, who's been waiting patiently.

1241
01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:29,560
Speaker 1: What do you got for his Gina?

1242
01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:33,280
Speaker 10: Hey, guys, thank you so much for letting me, come

1243
01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:36,880
Speaker 10: on the show. I'm Steve Tasker. You're the bomb Man,

1244
01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:38,880
Speaker 10: and you're the one that I listened to because you

1245
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:42,600
Speaker 10: were a Buffalo Bill. You know what goes on behind

1246
01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:45,920
Speaker 10: the scenes. And I'm actually heading to Buffalo right now

1247
01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:50,640
Speaker 10: for a celebration of place for my uncle who just

1248
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:54,240
Speaker 10: suddenly tossed away, who was a Bills fan, and after

1249
01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:56,840
Speaker 10: that Giants game, actually said to me, oh, well, Gina,

1250
01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:59,240
Speaker 10: there's always next year. That's what it is being a

1251
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:02,000
Speaker 10: Bills fan. So I just wanted to say, you know,

1252
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:04,480
Speaker 10: shout out to my uncle Shack. I'm doing his eulogy

1253
01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:07,480
Speaker 10: and his reading and he was the best guy. But anyway,

1254
01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:12,160
Speaker 10: circling back to these Bills, my Bills, my Buffalo Bills.

1255
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,360
Speaker 10: I'm not giving up on my Buffalo Bills. You know why,

1256
01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:17,520
Speaker 10: if it was that easy to win a Super Bowl,

1257
01:03:18,080 --> 01:03:21,800
Speaker 10: everybody who would be winning Super Bowls. So, you know what,

1258
01:03:22,600 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 10: I support my Bills every Sunday, no matter h I play,

1259
01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:29,600
Speaker 10: no matter what they do. You know, the only thing

1260
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:32,360
Speaker 10: I'm going to say is, let's play not to the

1261
01:03:32,440 --> 01:03:37,080
Speaker 10: record of the team, I e. Example, Giants and Patriots.

1262
01:03:37,480 --> 01:03:42,840
Speaker 10: Everybody's hungry, everybody wants to win it's any given Sunday,

1263
01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:47,640
Speaker 10: So don't assume you can beat everybody. I'm just laying back.

1264
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:51,560
Speaker 10: And as far as he's out our unicorn man, he

1265
01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:56,120
Speaker 10: is our unicorn. There's nobody else out there like him.

1266
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,200
Speaker 10: And if he was in front of me, hold on,

1267
01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:01,960
Speaker 10: I'm driving on the through my he hold on, Okay,

1268
01:04:02,320 --> 01:04:06,040
Speaker 10: I'm sorry. If he wasn't telling me right now, I'd

1269
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,640
Speaker 10: be saying him, Josh, do you know who you are?

1270
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 10: You got this? Just don't suffocate the man. He wants

1271
01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 10: to run, he wants to jump, he wants to leave,

1272
01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:18,520
Speaker 10: he wants wants to throw. Let the man do what

1273
01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:20,200
Speaker 10: the man does best.

1274
01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:24,320
Speaker 1: All right, yes, go bell, all.

1275
01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:27,440
Speaker 2: Right, Thank you, Gina, And and condolenceays to your family

1276
01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:28,240
Speaker 2: about uncle Chuck.

1277
01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:33,040
Speaker 1: Hopefully uncle Chuck's pulling for us upstairs game.

1278
01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:35,920
Speaker 2: And yes there are and I know this too. People

1279
01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:39,080
Speaker 2: get caught up in, you know, the struggles that the

1280
01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:40,800
Speaker 2: team will have up on the ups and downs on

1281
01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:44,720
Speaker 2: a week to week basis. And people also sometimes like

1282
01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:49,640
Speaker 2: to be the person who says something first. Uh, And

1283
01:04:49,680 --> 01:04:52,320
Speaker 2: sometimes they want to be even if it's negative. They're

1284
01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:54,560
Speaker 2: more interested in being right than they are being possible.

1285
01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:56,919
Speaker 1: I was the one who said they should have done

1286
01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:57,919
Speaker 1: this a month ago.

1287
01:04:58,000 --> 01:04:59,240
Speaker 2: We get a lot of that, and I know some

1288
01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:01,200
Speaker 2: of the people call, they're Bills fans, and they say,

1289
01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:04,680
Speaker 2: you know, the chocolate up, the team's done. It helps

1290
01:05:04,720 --> 01:05:08,840
Speaker 2: them cope with a tough week, whether they believe the

1291
01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:11,479
Speaker 2: team's done or not, and whether they certainly don't hope

1292
01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:13,200
Speaker 2: the team is done, they're trying to make the call,

1293
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Yeah, So sometimes it's a

1294
01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:19,080
Speaker 2: way for Bills fans and other fans of other teams

1295
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:21,840
Speaker 2: to cope with a bad week or a bad game.

1296
01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:24,120
Speaker 2: So I don't really take it. I don't really hold

1297
01:05:24,120 --> 01:05:26,000
Speaker 2: it against Bill's fans when they come in and say,

1298
01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:28,280
Speaker 2: fire that guy, Fire that guy, Bench that guy, bench

1299
01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:30,919
Speaker 2: that guy, Trade this guy, trade that guy, because they're

1300
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:34,280
Speaker 2: just trying to cope with the pain that because their

1301
01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:36,920
Speaker 2: team's not winning by double digits every single week. It's

1302
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:41,840
Speaker 2: it's a struggle because you know, the passion runs deep

1303
01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:44,320
Speaker 2: and it hurts just as it hurts as bad as

1304
01:05:44,360 --> 01:05:46,480
Speaker 2: it feels good when things are going well.

1305
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:48,840
Speaker 1: The best part about that phone call was Gina got

1306
01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:52,040
Speaker 1: so passionate she she started speeding speed in her car.

1307
01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:56,240
Speaker 1: They'll pull off the gas there, save some of it

1308
01:05:56,280 --> 01:05:59,760
Speaker 1: for the game, Gina. Let's go to gym in Lockport next.

1309
01:05:59,760 --> 01:06:08,120
Speaker 1: What are you, Jim? Hey? Hi, doing well, Jim? What's up? Jim?

1310
01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:08,600
Speaker 1: Are you there?

1311
01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:10,040
Speaker 2: Hello?

1312
01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:10,640
Speaker 4: Can you hear me?

1313
01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:10,919
Speaker 8: Yeah?

1314
01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:12,400
Speaker 1: I can hear now go ahead?

1315
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:14,640
Speaker 11: Oh, thanks for taking my call.

1316
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:15,000
Speaker 6: Sure.

1317
01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:17,040
Speaker 11: Hey, I'm not really a proposed I'm not really a

1318
01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:21,280
Speaker 11: big proponent of copying what other teams do. However, I

1319
01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:25,440
Speaker 11: didn't notice one thing about the Kansas City Chiefs in

1320
01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:29,480
Speaker 11: the game the other night. They were saying that Travis

1321
01:06:29,560 --> 01:06:31,800
Speaker 11: they know Travis kelcey is going to get the ball.

1322
01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:35,160
Speaker 11: They double team his, double team him, and he's still

1323
01:06:35,560 --> 01:06:39,760
Speaker 11: always open. Maybe the Bills should try to find somebody

1324
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:45,520
Speaker 11: else that could be always open outlet for Jiggs.

1325
01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:49,400
Speaker 1: Oh, someone like an option B besides Diggs. That's what

1326
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:51,000
Speaker 1: you're saying, Jim.

1327
01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:54,800
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean Travis kelce Is. They're on Travis kelce

1328
01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:58,640
Speaker 11: like why on Rice? But he's always open hereby put

1329
01:06:58,680 --> 01:07:00,600
Speaker 11: two guys on him, he's still always.

1330
01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:03,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's he's a very targeted. Yeah, he's a very

1331
01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:07,200
Speaker 1: savvy receiver. He knows where the holes and zones are.

1332
01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:10,320
Speaker 1: He's played football long enough where there isn't a defensive

1333
01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:13,720
Speaker 1: coverage that he hasn't seen single coverage, double coverage. Otherwise,

1334
01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:18,600
Speaker 1: he's essentially their digs in their offense. That's kind of

1335
01:07:18,600 --> 01:07:20,840
Speaker 1: where it's at. He's their number one option and it's

1336
01:07:20,880 --> 01:07:25,440
Speaker 1: not even close. Marquez Valdez scantling role player, Kadarius Tony

1337
01:07:25,800 --> 01:07:29,560
Speaker 1: role player, Noah Gray the other tight end role player now.

1338
01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:33,280
Speaker 1: One player that's starting to step up more is Rashi Rice,

1339
01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:36,880
Speaker 1: their rookie who is being targeted more and more with

1340
01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:39,640
Speaker 1: each passing week. And I think he's kind of solidifying

1341
01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:42,600
Speaker 1: himself in the second half of his rookie season as

1342
01:07:42,680 --> 01:07:43,520
Speaker 1: option number two.

1343
01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:43,800
Speaker 4: There.

1344
01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:46,160
Speaker 1: The Bills need somebody like that. I think you're right

1345
01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:49,120
Speaker 1: about that, Jim, And I think the genuine hope here

1346
01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:52,160
Speaker 1: is that it is dalton Kin Kate. Let's hope what

1347
01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 1: he did last week eight targets, eight receptions, eighty five

1348
01:07:56,880 --> 01:07:59,680
Speaker 1: yards is a sign of things to come. I want

1349
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:02,040
Speaker 1: to believe that it is, and I think that will

1350
01:08:02,080 --> 01:08:03,640
Speaker 1: get some traction here going forward.

1351
01:08:03,760 --> 01:08:06,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Travis Kelcey may always be open, but Diggs has

1352
01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:10,040
Speaker 2: got more catches, more yards, and more touchdowns, so he's

1353
01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:11,120
Speaker 2: an open pretty much too.

1354
01:08:11,360 --> 01:08:14,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's been double team plenty as well, and

1355
01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:17,640
Speaker 1: credit for him being open. You got to tip your

1356
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:19,479
Speaker 1: hat a little bit to Ken Dorsey, who's the guy

1357
01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:22,599
Speaker 1: responsible for moving that guy around in the formation, using

1358
01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:25,840
Speaker 1: late motion, lining him up in the backfield. That's all

1359
01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:29,439
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. So with all the criticism that he gets,

1360
01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:31,040
Speaker 1: you should give him a little bit of credit for

1361
01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:31,439
Speaker 1: that too.

1362
01:08:32,320 --> 01:08:35,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'll say this, You can you can say

1363
01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:39,160
Speaker 2: whatever you want about you know, how it's going or whatever,

1364
01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:41,680
Speaker 2: but the simple fact of the matter is, you know,

1365
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:44,920
Speaker 2: Diggs had six six catches last week.

1366
01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:46,280
Speaker 1: Now, yeah, six on twelve targets.

1367
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:49,600
Speaker 2: Yet six on twelve targets for fifty eight yards and

1368
01:08:49,680 --> 01:08:55,160
Speaker 2: a touchdown. And that's an off week. That's an off week.

1369
01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:57,519
Speaker 2: He had a string of five out of six games

1370
01:08:57,520 --> 01:08:59,519
Speaker 2: coming into the game where he had one hundred yards rush,

1371
01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:04,040
Speaker 2: harder undred yards receiving, so games. So he's playing at

1372
01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:08,960
Speaker 2: a high level. Travis Kelcey wishes he had Steph Diggs's

1373
01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:11,599
Speaker 2: numbers as as much as you like to talk about

1374
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:16,320
Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey, we'll see that. And that's you know, now

1375
01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:18,639
Speaker 2: we're gonna have this offense is gonna start to evolve

1376
01:09:18,920 --> 01:09:22,120
Speaker 2: pretty quickly. Now with Knox being out of the mix

1377
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:24,720
Speaker 2: for a month. They're gonna have to figure out what

1378
01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:27,800
Speaker 2: they're gonna do, and it'll be interesting and fun for

1379
01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:29,760
Speaker 2: I think for Bills fans to see some other guys

1380
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:31,519
Speaker 2: try to pick up the slack for that, because there

1381
01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:33,880
Speaker 2: will be guys who do. They're gonna ask guys to

1382
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:36,880
Speaker 2: step forward? Is it gonna be Shakirs, It gonna be

1383
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:41,920
Speaker 2: sure Surefield? Isabella is gonna be, Gabe Davis, is gonna

1384
01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:45,840
Speaker 2: be Kincaid? Who's it gonna be? James Cook? Who's it

1385
01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:49,799
Speaker 2: gonna be? The Bills are gonna be the coaching staff

1386
01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:52,479
Speaker 2: and Ken Dorsey are gonna be asking guys with the

1387
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:55,360
Speaker 2: play calls that they make, They're gonna be asking guys

1388
01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,040
Speaker 2: to step up. It'll be fun to see who that's

1389
01:09:57,080 --> 01:09:57,960
Speaker 2: gonna be. Yeah.

1390
01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:03,120
Speaker 1: Uh, We've got some things to consider tonight, Steve, concerning

1391
01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:08,200
Speaker 1: this opponent in the Buccaneers third highest blitz rate at

1392
01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:11,840
Speaker 1: forty percent. Todd Bowles, the head coach, is you know,

1393
01:10:12,160 --> 01:10:15,240
Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator by trade, and he has been a

1394
01:10:15,280 --> 01:10:20,160
Speaker 1: heavy blitz unit for his entire career. Now, their pressure

1395
01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:25,479
Speaker 1: rate is not great for whatever reason, But what do

1396
01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:30,600
Speaker 1: you we heard talk this week about Josh getting the

1397
01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:33,400
Speaker 1: protections right. And when you have a team that blitzes

1398
01:10:33,439 --> 01:10:37,519
Speaker 1: this much, that's pretty important. But when you when you

1399
01:10:37,600 --> 01:10:40,559
Speaker 1: go into a game that blitzes against a team that

1400
01:10:40,600 --> 01:10:47,320
Speaker 1: blitzes that heavily, what does that essentially mean for offensive execution?

1401
01:10:47,439 --> 01:10:50,439
Speaker 1: It has to happen faster, right, Like, that's right. You

1402
01:10:50,479 --> 01:10:53,040
Speaker 1: have to get to your answers quicker, knowing that what

1403
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:54,800
Speaker 1: their approach is likely to be.

1404
01:10:55,040 --> 01:11:00,400
Speaker 2: You can There's a lot of ways to counteract a blitz.

1405
01:11:00,520 --> 01:11:03,920
Speaker 2: One is to keep guys in to protect and send

1406
01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:06,320
Speaker 2: guys out. And if you can protect it, they're thin

1407
01:11:06,439 --> 01:11:08,200
Speaker 2: in the back end. But if you keep guys in,

1408
01:11:08,280 --> 01:11:10,320
Speaker 2: you have less guys to send out. See, so it's

1409
01:11:10,360 --> 01:11:13,080
Speaker 2: a give and take. But if you protect it, there's

1410
01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:14,760
Speaker 2: a lot of space in the back end for guys

1411
01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:18,720
Speaker 2: to run around and make make throws. Two is to

1412
01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:20,880
Speaker 2: get rid of the ball quick. Like you said, send

1413
01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:23,200
Speaker 2: everybody out. They got to cover everybody. They're not going

1414
01:11:23,240 --> 01:11:25,240
Speaker 2: to let guys run free without a guy cover them.

1415
01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:28,200
Speaker 2: So you can use up their blitzers by forcing them

1416
01:11:28,720 --> 01:11:33,680
Speaker 2: to to drop into coverage because you have all your eligible.

1417
01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:35,799
Speaker 1: Receiving guys out. Gosh, in a one on one situation.

1418
01:11:35,960 --> 01:11:36,840
Speaker 2: Essentially, that's right.

1419
01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:38,200
Speaker 1: They can send his six.

1420
01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:41,200
Speaker 2: That's right, and then you have one extra guy coming

1421
01:11:41,240 --> 01:11:46,479
Speaker 2: after the quarterback. Another way to do that is with deception.

1422
01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:49,920
Speaker 2: You make it look like something they blitz on one

1423
01:11:49,920 --> 01:11:51,720
Speaker 2: side and you got them, and you throw it right

1424
01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:54,960
Speaker 2: behind the blitz and you got a guy running free.

1425
01:11:55,200 --> 01:11:57,680
Speaker 2: You can stack like step James Cook up into the

1426
01:11:57,720 --> 01:11:59,840
Speaker 2: coverage the guy who and if they're what they call

1427
01:11:59,880 --> 01:12:03,600
Speaker 2: you to call green dogging, what happens is a linebacker

1428
01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:06,479
Speaker 2: or a defensive back will come in and have James

1429
01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:09,479
Speaker 2: Cook in coverage. If James Cook is in, if you're

1430
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:11,880
Speaker 2: his and he's stepping up to block you, you rush

1431
01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:15,280
Speaker 2: the quarterback. So what team started to combating is James

1432
01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:17,080
Speaker 2: Cook steps up to protect the guy tries to get

1433
01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:19,280
Speaker 2: away from him, He lets him get away from him,

1434
01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:23,519
Speaker 2: turns around, Josh throws the ball boom gone so and

1435
01:12:23,600 --> 01:12:25,920
Speaker 2: he then he becomes Josh Allen running up behind the

1436
01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:28,400
Speaker 2: guys that are covering in the secondary. Right. So there's

1437
01:12:28,439 --> 01:12:31,760
Speaker 2: all kinds of ways to get around it blitz. The

1438
01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:35,880
Speaker 2: first one is you gotta block him up and it's

1439
01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:39,280
Speaker 2: on the quarterback. Usually to set the offensive line, say Okay,

1440
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:41,599
Speaker 2: you hear guys saying, hey, fifty two is the MAC,

1441
01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:44,360
Speaker 2: fifty one is the MAC, forty seven is the MAC.

1442
01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:50,639
Speaker 2: That's where the guy is. If that guy blitzes, it's

1443
01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:53,800
Speaker 2: a problem. That's the guy they're looking at. So Josh says,

1444
01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:57,200
Speaker 2: that's the guy. So the offensive line skips that guy

1445
01:12:57,000 --> 01:13:01,920
Speaker 2: in their protection and blocks everybody else. So if he

1446
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:04,320
Speaker 2: shoots the gap, then they got to They know they

1447
01:13:04,360 --> 01:13:06,320
Speaker 2: don't have to pick him up. Josh's got him. That

1448
01:13:06,439 --> 01:13:07,960
Speaker 2: kind of thing gives you an idea of how they

1449
01:13:08,479 --> 01:13:13,000
Speaker 2: combat that. It's a The real problem with blitz is

1450
01:13:13,240 --> 01:13:15,960
Speaker 2: everybody has to see it, everybody has to understand it,

1451
01:13:16,280 --> 01:13:17,880
Speaker 2: and everybody has to know what they're supposed to do

1452
01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:21,120
Speaker 2: when they get caught. When you get a guy who's

1453
01:13:21,439 --> 01:13:26,960
Speaker 2: daydreaming and doesn't know what he's supposed to do, your

1454
01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:29,599
Speaker 2: quarterbacks back, they're patting the football with a guy you know,

1455
01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:32,920
Speaker 2: coming right up his right up his grill, it's a problem.

1456
01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:34,520
Speaker 2: And it happens fast.

1457
01:13:34,840 --> 01:13:37,519
Speaker 1: Break time for us here. When we come back, we're

1458
01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:41,160
Speaker 1: going to present the collision course, the matchup of the

1459
01:13:41,280 --> 01:13:44,839
Speaker 1: night here between Bills and Bucks. Will do that along

1460
01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:49,240
Speaker 1: with some of your submissions for Tailgate Friday. Can't wait

1461
01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:51,840
Speaker 1: to see what's on your menu next. Here on One

1462
01:13:51,880 --> 01:14:07,719
Speaker 1: Bill's Live, presented by Collide Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio.

1463
01:14:12,040 --> 01:14:15,600
Speaker 1: A collision course is brought to you by Gab's Collision.

1464
01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:18,759
Speaker 1: Gabe's Collision, the official auto collision repair center. The Buffalo

1465
01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 1: Bills get back in the game, and the collision course

1466
01:14:22,080 --> 01:14:26,760
Speaker 1: for tonight's game concerns a certain slot receiver and a

1467
01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:31,400
Speaker 1: certain nickel corner Chris Godwin of the Bucks and Taron

1468
01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:37,200
Speaker 1: Johnson of the Bills. This is a critical matchup tonight

1469
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:42,360
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, considering the secondary has had somewhat

1470
01:14:42,400 --> 01:14:45,519
Speaker 1: of an adjustment to make with the season ending injury

1471
01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:48,840
Speaker 1: to Tradevius White, Taron Johnson has often been looked upon

1472
01:14:49,360 --> 01:14:53,120
Speaker 1: as the lynchpin in the coverage assignments. Is a big one.

1473
01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:58,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, no question they need that. Taron Johnson is one

1474
01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:00,960
Speaker 2: of the saltiest defenders the Bills have when even when

1475
01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:03,599
Speaker 2: everybody's healthy, and that's going to be a huge matchup

1476
01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:05,000
Speaker 2: for the Bills to come out on top of that,

1477
01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:07,120
Speaker 2: I think if you flip that over, if you look

1478
01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:09,759
Speaker 2: at the Bucks and how their offense and their team goes,

1479
01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:14,720
Speaker 2: they're gonna play as well as Baker Mayfield plays. Right,

1480
01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:19,320
Speaker 2: If and you've got that stat these two guys turn

1481
01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:21,360
Speaker 2: it over a ton Josh turns it over a bunch

1482
01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:23,760
Speaker 2: and Baker Mayfield turns it over a bunch. I think

1483
01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:27,360
Speaker 2: the winner of that battle, whoever plays better at quarterback,

1484
01:15:27,439 --> 01:15:29,960
Speaker 2: is going to win this game. Their their offense goes

1485
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:32,679
Speaker 2: as Baker goes, and you know he's gonna find He's

1486
01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:36,280
Speaker 2: got some weapons, They've got some talent around him. But

1487
01:15:36,360 --> 01:15:39,800
Speaker 2: as we know, in this league, the game turns on

1488
01:15:39,840 --> 01:15:43,400
Speaker 2: your ability to do something off script every once in

1489
01:15:43,439 --> 01:15:46,599
Speaker 2: a while. And Mark, you know, the Bills have done it,

1490
01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:49,120
Speaker 2: the Chiefs do it, all the good teams do it.

1491
01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:52,800
Speaker 2: If Baker Mayfield is that guy tonight and can make

1492
01:15:52,840 --> 01:15:55,160
Speaker 2: a couple of those plays off script, that'll give them

1493
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:55,639
Speaker 2: a chance.

1494
01:15:56,439 --> 01:16:02,160
Speaker 1: Yes, But as you said, or Mayfield usually gives you

1495
01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:05,600
Speaker 1: one right, give you an opportunity for a takeaways for you.

1496
01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:07,040
Speaker 1: So does Josh, So does Josh.

1497
01:16:07,280 --> 01:16:09,400
Speaker 2: The difference is, and I talked about it all the time.

1498
01:16:09,479 --> 01:16:11,920
Speaker 2: If your offensive scoring points, who cares if they turn

1499
01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:14,000
Speaker 2: it over once in a while, You know they really don't.

1500
01:16:14,040 --> 01:16:17,559
Speaker 2: If you're scoring touchdowns and all that, who cares, let's go.

1501
01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:22,080
Speaker 2: But when you team hit a game where you can't

1502
01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:23,920
Speaker 2: get into the red zone, you kick a field goal,

1503
01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:25,680
Speaker 2: you miss a field goal, you miss an ext you

1504
01:16:25,720 --> 01:16:29,680
Speaker 2: miss a a touchdown, and all of a sudden you're

1505
01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:33,240
Speaker 2: in one of those ten to thirteen games. You can't

1506
01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:37,240
Speaker 2: turn it over then. But when you're trying to play

1507
01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:39,920
Speaker 2: offense a certain way, you always you know you have

1508
01:16:39,960 --> 01:16:42,160
Speaker 2: the propensity to do it anyway, whether you're scoring or not,

1509
01:16:42,720 --> 01:16:45,120
Speaker 2: then you're in trouble. That's where the Bills find themselves

1510
01:16:45,160 --> 01:16:46,759
Speaker 2: a lot of times when they're in these close games.

1511
01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:50,240
Speaker 1: So that is Collision Course, brought to you by Gabe's Collision,

1512
01:16:50,240 --> 01:16:52,679
Speaker 1: the official auto collision repair center of the Buffalo Bills.

1513
01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:57,960
Speaker 1: Get back in the game. We pivot now to Tailgate Friday.

1514
01:16:58,040 --> 01:17:00,000

Speaker 1: about anything, especially burgers. Ed says winning wings tonight, hopefully

1538
01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:34,439
Speaker 1: skipping the humble pie too much.

1539
01:18:34,240 --> 01:18:34,840
Speaker 2: Of it lately.

1540
01:18:36,560 --> 01:18:38,599
Speaker 1: I see what you did there, Ed, You're so clever,

1541
01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:42,559
Speaker 1: Andrew says, I have a family coming over, so I'm

1542
01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:47,360
Speaker 1: making a bacon wrap cheese stuffed meat loaf with roasted garlic, potatoes,

1543
01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:54,160
Speaker 1: honey glazed carrots, and butter glazed buttermilk biscuits. Emphasis on

1544
01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:55,160
Speaker 1: the butter.

1545
01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:56,360
Speaker 2: And butter and butter.

1546
01:18:56,960 --> 01:18:58,439
Speaker 1: All I heard was butter and bacon.

1547
01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:02,639
Speaker 2: Come over, buttermilk butter glazed butter biscuits.

1548
01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:03,519
Speaker 1: Man, that's good.

1549
01:19:03,600 --> 01:19:04,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, good stuff.

1550
01:19:04,920 --> 01:19:10,840
Speaker 1: Bacon wrapped cheese stuffed meat loaf. Good lord, that's like heaven.

1551
01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:14,680
Speaker 2: That's great. The next one, Jack comes over all of it.

1552
01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:17,000
Speaker 2: When they tell us they're gonna keep it simple, la

1553
01:19:17,360 --> 01:19:19,160
Speaker 2: a laundry, let's go ahead.

1554
01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:23,040
Speaker 1: Keeping it simple today due to the time crunch, grilling

1555
01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:26,919
Speaker 1: up some lakeside Italian sausage with grilled peppers and onions,

1556
01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:31,200
Speaker 1: burgers and dogs, free dos, and pretzels with French onion

1557
01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:36,480
Speaker 1: and horseradish dip, respectively. Nothing fancy, but it'll fill the gut.

1558
01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:41,840
Speaker 1: Go bills. Let Josh cook, Steve says, and we've got

1559
01:19:41,840 --> 01:19:44,440
Speaker 1: a photo with this one. Oh I saw it pulled

1560
01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:50,920
Speaker 1: pork tonight. Can we get a gander at this? Oh

1561
01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:54,400
Speaker 1: that's pre pulled, of course. Oh my god, Wow, look

1562
01:19:54,439 --> 01:19:55,320
Speaker 1: at that pork roast.

1563
01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:58,880
Speaker 2: Is that like a shoulders, like a pork shoulder? Yeah, gosh,

1564
01:19:58,920 --> 01:20:01,080
Speaker 2: I think it's huge. I think it looks like a

1565
01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:04,000
Speaker 2: football sitting. It's probably bigger than that, but it looks

1566
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:04,719
Speaker 2: like a rugby foot.

1567
01:20:04,760 --> 01:20:07,519
Speaker 1: Got to pull that apart. Oh my gosh, he's got

1568
01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:09,880
Speaker 1: the temperature gauge in there. He's probably got that going

1569
01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:12,120
Speaker 1: at about two hundred and fifteen degrees for the last

1570
01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:13,720
Speaker 1: twelve hours.

1571
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:16,240
Speaker 2: Just whoa crispy on the outside. Oh my gosh, So

1572
01:20:16,640 --> 01:20:17,479
Speaker 2: that looks so good.

1573
01:20:17,720 --> 01:20:22,800
Speaker 1: Emily says she's going with buffalo chicken sandwiches made with

1574
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:24,200
Speaker 1: digs hot sauce.

1575
01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:26,479
Speaker 2: A lot of people using the digs hot sauce.

1576
01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:29,760
Speaker 1: It's underrated. Yeah, pretty good. Yeah, I gotta say it's

1577
01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:35,000
Speaker 1: pretty good. Max. I hope some of these fragile fans

1578
01:20:35,040 --> 01:20:37,760
Speaker 1: find something on the menu to strengthen their spirits and

1579
01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:41,120
Speaker 1: stop whining so much. My kids are more level headed

1580
01:20:41,160 --> 01:20:43,960
Speaker 1: than some of these fellows. All right, so a dissertation first,

1581
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:46,360
Speaker 1: But what's on the menu, Max, I don't care what

1582
01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:49,320
Speaker 1: we eat today, landed box seats for the first time ever,

1583
01:20:49,360 --> 01:20:52,280
Speaker 1: and we just want Josh to cook, all right, So

1584
01:20:52,560 --> 01:20:55,799
Speaker 1: most people's tailgate recipes is to let Josh cook box.

1585
01:20:55,600 --> 01:20:59,200
Speaker 2: Seats are on the menu for Max. Good for him. Yeah,

1586
01:20:59,280 --> 01:21:01,840
Speaker 2: it's it's that time season though. You know, you go

1587
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:03,760
Speaker 2: through and and the Bills have done it. Even in

1588
01:21:03,840 --> 01:21:06,320
Speaker 2: their great seasons, you go through a stretching the season

1589
01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:07,720
Speaker 2: where a couple of weeks it's like, hey, you don't

1590
01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:12,719
Speaker 2: look so good. You know they have. This team has,

1591
01:21:13,680 --> 01:21:18,360
Speaker 2: notoriously under Sean McDermott, figured it out, no matter how

1592
01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:20,960
Speaker 2: bad it looks something once in a while they figure

1593
01:21:20,960 --> 01:21:24,720
Speaker 2: it out. We'll see if they can make that this

1594
01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:27,000
Speaker 2: make this one more season where they do exactly that.

1595
01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:33,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that is Tailgate Friday, which is, as you know,

1596
01:21:33,200 --> 01:21:35,439
Speaker 1: brought to you by high Mark Blue Cross, Blue Shield,

1597
01:21:35,479 --> 01:21:40,080
Speaker 1: the official healthcare plan of the Buffalo Bills. Always love

1598
01:21:40,160 --> 01:21:43,720
Speaker 1: those menu recipes when they come in because half the

1599
01:21:43,720 --> 01:21:45,040
Speaker 1: time there's something I want to cry.

1600
01:21:45,040 --> 01:21:46,800
Speaker 2: Sound fantastic all of them?

1601
01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:48,840
Speaker 1: A lot of them. Yeah, we had some good ones.

1602
01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:52,200
Speaker 1: That's the most extensive list I've seen. I wonder if

1603
01:21:52,680 --> 01:21:57,839
Speaker 1: weekday games prompt more people to plan more in advance,

1604
01:21:58,320 --> 01:22:01,400
Speaker 1: you know, because when your game's on a side right

1605
01:22:01,600 --> 01:22:04,479
Speaker 1: and we usually do Tailgate Friday, some people haven't even

1606
01:22:04,520 --> 01:22:06,599
Speaker 1: thought about what they're bringing to the tailgate on Friday

1607
01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:10,320
Speaker 1: for a Sunday game, probably putting that together Saturday afternoon,

1608
01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:11,720
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, right, because they don't have

1609
01:22:11,720 --> 01:22:13,479
Speaker 1: think you know, they're off the next day from work.

1610
01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:17,040
Speaker 1: Usually for a Thursday game. You gotta have something in

1611
01:22:17,080 --> 01:22:19,360
Speaker 1: the hopper and ready to roll. That's right, because you

1612
01:22:19,479 --> 01:22:21,120
Speaker 1: got work that day. You don't have time to go

1613
01:22:21,200 --> 01:22:22,360
Speaker 1: running out during the day to.

1614
01:22:22,439 --> 01:22:24,360
Speaker 2: You don't take you don't get although some of the

1615
01:22:24,400 --> 01:22:26,160
Speaker 2: local school there's you here, they're getting a half day

1616
01:22:26,200 --> 01:22:27,920
Speaker 2: because of the traffic because they got to get the

1617
01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:31,280
Speaker 2: kids home. So the kids out early. Yeah, I think, Wow,

1618
01:22:31,320 --> 01:22:33,160
Speaker 2: who it was, I'm the Ken Moore or somebody got

1619
01:22:33,240 --> 01:22:34,559
Speaker 2: let out for a half a day.

1620
01:22:34,560 --> 01:22:34,800
Speaker 8: Wow?

1621
01:22:35,240 --> 01:22:38,720
Speaker 2: Kids? So they but yeah, you gotta go to work.

1622
01:22:38,720 --> 01:22:40,519
Speaker 2: You gotta get ready for it and the game kicks.

1623
01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:43,599
Speaker 2: We were sitting this last time, the Giant game eight

1624
01:22:43,760 --> 01:22:47,800
Speaker 2: fifteen kick. It takes forever to get this thing kicked off.

1625
01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:50,559
Speaker 2: It feels like midnight by the time, plus at this

1626
01:22:50,640 --> 01:22:53,120
Speaker 2: time of year gets dark early, so it's dark for

1627
01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:56,479
Speaker 2: a long time before the game kicks. It's a crusher.

1628
01:22:57,160 --> 01:22:59,240
Speaker 2: So you gotta really you gotta really be on it.

1629
01:22:59,320 --> 01:23:00,200
Speaker 2: To have that.

1630
01:23:00,280 --> 01:23:02,719
Speaker 1: Right now is like six thirty right somewhere in there.

1631
01:23:03,200 --> 01:23:06,240
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, and we haven't even hit daylights maybe dark

1632
01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:09,639
Speaker 2: before seven pm and the game kicks at eight fifteen.

1633
01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:10,800
Speaker 2: That's a good point.

1634
01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:13,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, you kind of have to have your lighting set

1635
01:23:13,560 --> 01:23:16,960
Speaker 1: up for tailgates too, which sometimes can be accomplished just

1636
01:23:17,000 --> 01:23:19,400
Speaker 1: with a fire pit or you know, a garbage can

1637
01:23:19,640 --> 01:23:21,840
Speaker 1: fire going to get roast whatever you're eating.

1638
01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:25,240
Speaker 2: Got to get your facilities manager on that.

1639
01:23:26,200 --> 01:23:31,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. The other thing to keep an eye

1640
01:23:31,600 --> 01:23:37,880
Speaker 1: on tonight is who the Bills decide to bring up

1641
01:23:38,120 --> 01:23:42,040
Speaker 1: as either a a practice squad elevation or to sign

1642
01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:47,360
Speaker 1: to the active roster, because the anticipation is Dawson Knox

1643
01:23:47,400 --> 01:23:49,799
Speaker 1: will be going on IR and we'll miss four games

1644
01:23:49,800 --> 01:23:53,280
Speaker 1: counting tonight's game, so there will be an open roster

1645
01:23:53,360 --> 01:23:58,240
Speaker 1: spot there and you are shorthanded at the tight end position.

1646
01:23:59,040 --> 01:24:01,439
Speaker 1: Dalton Kin Kid is your only healthy tight end. Reggie

1647
01:24:01,439 --> 01:24:05,479
Speaker 1: Gilliam is a fully fullback slash tight end, and so

1648
01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:09,200
Speaker 1: some were wondering if Joel Wilson, the undrafted rookie tight end,

1649
01:24:09,200 --> 01:24:12,120
Speaker 1: would be the call up to fulfill the position hole.

1650
01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:16,320
Speaker 1: But there are others who say, hey, why just throw

1651
01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:20,479
Speaker 1: another receiver out there, call up Andy Isabella, spread them

1652
01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:23,400
Speaker 1: out and go get him. Yeah, I think there's some

1653
01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:24,120
Speaker 1: merit to that.

1654
01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:26,519
Speaker 2: I do too, I think there's something to be said.

1655
01:24:26,520 --> 01:24:29,120
Speaker 2: I like that plan for a team that likes to

1656
01:24:29,120 --> 01:24:34,520
Speaker 2: blitz a lot. Teams blitz a lot. He's sometimes because

1657
01:24:35,040 --> 01:24:37,760
Speaker 2: you know, they just like to do it, but sometimes

1658
01:24:37,600 --> 01:24:42,080
Speaker 2: it allows them to not have a great secondary. And

1659
01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:43,800
Speaker 2: certainly if you spread them out, they got to go

1660
01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:48,559
Speaker 2: deeper into their rosters second with corners than they would

1661
01:24:48,600 --> 01:24:51,679
Speaker 2: normally do against somebody's going two wider at most three wide.

1662
01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:53,200
Speaker 2: They go from now then they got to go dime.

1663
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:55,599
Speaker 2: Then then they got to go quarter where they got

1664
01:24:55,600 --> 01:25:00,280
Speaker 2: to go four corners, right, So some teams just have

1665
01:25:00,320 --> 01:25:02,639
Speaker 2: the guys for that. And if your receiving corps goes

1666
01:25:02,640 --> 01:25:06,920
Speaker 2: deep quality, deeper than their cornerback room, you gotta go.

1667
01:25:07,120 --> 01:25:08,839
Speaker 2: You gotta do it, and you gotta find that matchup

1668
01:25:08,840 --> 01:25:11,920
Speaker 2: and you got to move with motions and shift you

1669
01:25:11,960 --> 01:25:16,200
Speaker 2: get digs on their fourth corner. There you go. You

1670
01:25:16,240 --> 01:25:18,120
Speaker 2: know that, And that's kind of the chess match that

1671
01:25:18,160 --> 01:25:19,920
Speaker 2: you're talking about when you when you get to this

1672
01:25:20,080 --> 01:25:23,400
Speaker 2: point of the season. Yeah, I'm where you got guys

1673
01:25:23,439 --> 01:25:24,640
Speaker 2: injured and you're trying to you know.

1674
01:25:24,920 --> 01:25:28,559
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, there was a there was a saying a similar

1675
01:25:28,640 --> 01:25:32,880
Speaker 1: question on the defensive side of the ball. With at

1676
01:25:32,920 --> 01:25:37,640
Speaker 1: Oliver questionable for tonight's game, could the Bills, you know,

1677
01:25:37,680 --> 01:25:42,519
Speaker 1: you're already down day Kwon Jones, who's on IR and

1678
01:25:42,600 --> 01:25:46,760
Speaker 1: with add Oliver questionable, what could that prompt in terms

1679
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:51,160
Speaker 1: of a practice squad elevation on the defensive line. Ilianku

1680
01:25:51,360 --> 01:25:54,439
Speaker 1: just joined the roster yesterday onto the practice squad after

1681
01:25:54,479 --> 01:25:58,160
Speaker 1: he was cut by Atlanta, So he is an option

1682
01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:00,519
Speaker 1: and a run stuffing one at that, not that the

1683
01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:04,160
Speaker 1: Bucks are good at running the ball. And you also

1684
01:26:04,200 --> 01:26:06,880
Speaker 1: have Kendall Vickers who has been elevated twice already this

1685
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:11,720
Speaker 1: season to help fill the gaps with the injuries at

1686
01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:15,400
Speaker 1: the defensive tackle position. So things to keep an eye on.

1687
01:26:15,880 --> 01:26:19,200
Speaker 1: Deadline I believe is four o'clock to make those roster moves,

1688
01:26:19,280 --> 01:26:21,720
Speaker 1: So we'll have to wait and see what comes to

1689
01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:25,760
Speaker 1: pass between now and four pm this afternoon concerning the

1690
01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:28,320
Speaker 1: Bills roster break time for us here, Steve and I

1691
01:26:28,360 --> 01:26:31,400
Speaker 1: close it up with some final thoughts, perhaps on the

1692
01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:33,479
Speaker 1: tweets sheet when we come back here on One Bill's

1693
01:26:33,479 --> 01:26:53,719
Speaker 1: Live stay tuned Vision to Victory, presented by a wall Eyecare,

1694
01:26:53,800 --> 01:26:56,240
Speaker 1: the official eye care provider of the Buffalo Bills. Steve,

1695
01:26:56,320 --> 01:26:58,559
Speaker 1: I think what the Bills have to do. Spread them

1696
01:26:58,560 --> 01:27:02,639
Speaker 1: out on offense. Work the perimeter early, knowing that those

1697
01:27:02,680 --> 01:27:05,719
Speaker 1: ballhawks like Devin White and Antoine Winfield kind of patrol

1698
01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:07,800
Speaker 1: in the middle of the field and they'll get you

1699
01:27:08,320 --> 01:27:11,200
Speaker 1: if you're not careful. So work the perimeter first and

1700
01:27:11,200 --> 01:27:13,439
Speaker 1: then hopefully the middle of the field opens up later

1701
01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:16,320
Speaker 1: in the game. Get up on them so your defensive

1702
01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:17,320
Speaker 1: pass rush can thrive.

1703
01:27:18,040 --> 01:27:19,599
Speaker 2: I'm with you there. I think you need to do

1704
01:27:19,640 --> 01:27:22,640
Speaker 2: something a little bit differently offensively. Spread them out and

1705
01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:25,040
Speaker 2: go fast. Dare him to blitz you and have a

1706
01:27:25,080 --> 01:27:27,680
Speaker 2: plan for it when they do. And I think defensively,

1707
01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:29,840
Speaker 2: you got to let your pass rush eat. These guys

1708
01:27:30,080 --> 01:27:33,599
Speaker 2: don't run the football extremely well. They struggle to do that.

1709
01:27:33,920 --> 01:27:36,000
Speaker 2: Use that to your advantage. Get him in some second

1710
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:38,000
Speaker 2: and third and longs and let your pass rush feast.

1711
01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:40,639
Speaker 2: Get Greg Russseau out there, get Vaughan out there, get

1712
01:27:41,080 --> 01:27:46,400
Speaker 2: Leonard Floyd out there, aj Apanessa, go after him and

1713
01:27:46,479 --> 01:27:49,280
Speaker 2: bring extra pressure if you have to Baker Mayfield will

1714
01:27:49,280 --> 01:27:52,320
Speaker 2: give it to you. Put him in a panic situation

1715
01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:53,679
Speaker 2: where he'll put it up for grabs.

1716
01:27:54,240 --> 01:27:57,400
Speaker 1: Ticketmaster is the presenting sponsor the Buffalo Bills twenty twenty

1717
01:27:57,439 --> 01:28:00,879
Speaker 1: three season. Ticketmaster the official ticket market player of the NFL.

1718
01:28:00,960 --> 01:28:06,879
Speaker 1: Some final dilemmas on the Football Relationship Hotline presented by Pepsi,

1719
01:28:06,880 --> 01:28:10,760
Speaker 1: the official soft drink of the Buffalo Bills from it

1720
01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:13,040
Speaker 1: looks like Cash forty one? How do I get my

1721
01:28:13,080 --> 01:28:15,439
Speaker 1: son out of an afternoon exam he wants to tailgate

1722
01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:18,280
Speaker 1: early with his friends. That's a no. Take the exam.

1723
01:28:18,320 --> 01:28:20,280
Speaker 1: You'll have plenty of time to get to the tailgate.

1724
01:28:20,360 --> 01:28:23,120
Speaker 2: Yes, Tell him to study, take the exam, ace it,

1725
01:28:23,240 --> 01:28:23,720
Speaker 2: and then go.

1726
01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:26,479
Speaker 1: Stephanie says, we've got a dilemma. My mom fell and

1727
01:28:26,520 --> 01:28:28,600
Speaker 1: broke her hip on Friday Sunday. We watched at the

1728
01:28:28,640 --> 01:28:30,559
Speaker 1: hospital and the Bills lost. Do we try to watch

1729
01:28:30,600 --> 01:28:34,000
Speaker 1: together again tonight? I typically use NFL Plus to listen

1730
01:28:34,040 --> 01:28:36,040
Speaker 1: to Chris and Eric call the game. Thanks for doing that.

1731
01:28:36,320 --> 01:28:38,479
Speaker 1: She loves the Bills, but may just sleep and it

1732
01:28:38,479 --> 01:28:39,559
Speaker 1: would be on a tablet.

1733
01:28:40,200 --> 01:28:42,840
Speaker 2: I don't absolutely not. You can't watch with her again

1734
01:28:42,880 --> 01:28:46,200
Speaker 2: if you lost on that game. Give Mama smooch and.

1735
01:28:46,200 --> 01:28:48,599
Speaker 1: Leave, especially if she's sleeping.

1736
01:28:48,800 --> 01:28:51,760
Speaker 2: Especially if she's sleeping, I mean, if she needs help though,

1737
01:28:52,040 --> 01:28:52,679
Speaker 2: make sure something.

1738
01:28:52,720 --> 01:28:54,880
Speaker 1: Just be in another room, maybe watch it, you know,

1739
01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:56,960
Speaker 1: in the same house, but just not in the same

1740
01:28:57,040 --> 01:29:01,080
Speaker 1: room together. Mom's gonna be fine taking that, mom or

1741
01:29:01,080 --> 01:29:03,400
Speaker 1: watching the game. For God's sake.

1742
01:29:04,600 --> 01:29:07,200
Speaker 2: Mom will be fine. She'll be better off sleeping. Yeah.

1743
01:29:08,720 --> 01:29:10,559
Speaker 2: It also sets you up for a later game when

1744
01:29:10,600 --> 01:29:12,519
Speaker 2: you don't have to be there too, because it's bad luck.

1745
01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:13,080
Speaker 2: There you go.

1746
01:29:13,560 --> 01:29:16,520
Speaker 1: Thanks for all your submissions on the Football Relationship Hotline.

1747
01:29:16,680 --> 01:29:19,719
Speaker 1: Hopefully our advice will help you out with your football

1748
01:29:19,800 --> 01:29:25,360
Speaker 1: viewing habits, which begin tonight. In earnest. Week eight begins

1749
01:29:25,360 --> 01:29:29,519
