1 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: These one. Bill's Live presented by Called Light of Health. 2 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 1: All right, here we are. It's Thursday, Bill's Chiefs Week. 3 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: We're getting closer. And just about every national media show 4 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 1: you can get your hands on, Steve, they're all predicting shootouts. 5 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: They think that this is going to be the determining 6 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: factor and who's gonna work in the Super Bowl. We're 7 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: in week six, dude, everybody's just got to chill out. 8 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,679 Speaker 1: I understand the pomp and circumstance behind this game, and 9 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: it's a big one, and I think you want to 10 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 1: talk home field advantage. I'll listen to that, but let's 11 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: just pump the brakes on the Super Bowl. That thing's 12 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:21,320 Speaker 1: like five months away, come on, yeah, yeah it or 13 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: four months away. Well, yeah, it's a big game. It's 14 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 1: the biggest game I think of importance. Whereas now we 15 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,279 Speaker 1: kind of have a handle on who the good teams 16 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: really are. I mean, we were, we've gone, We've We've 17 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: had this conversation all off season. We watched you know, 18 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: the free agent period, the draft, the run up to 19 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: the draft, the combine, the preseason, the first month of 20 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: the season, and before the season began, at the regular season, 21 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: at the end of the preseason's gonna be like, Wow, 22 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: AFC's gonna be a gauntlet. You got Buffalo, Kansas City, 23 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: you got LA Chargers, Denver and Vegas are really gonna 24 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: be good this year. Baltimore, Pittsburgh with Trubisky's gonna be 25 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: pretty good. Gonna have some teams out there. And then 26 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: you got the number one seed Tennessee Titans. They're gonna 27 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: be you know again, all these teams, it's gonna be 28 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,239 Speaker 1: a gauntlet all these quarters. You know what, it's Kansas 29 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: City and Buffalo, That's who it is. It's Buffalo and 30 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 1: Kansas City, the Bills and the Chiefs. All these other 31 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 1: teams are chasing them. That's why this game has some meaning, 32 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: some extra punch. Yeah. Practice going on in the fieldhouse today, 33 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: rainy day here in western New York for those of 34 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: you who don't live in this area watching the show 35 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: or listening to the show. And I think there was 36 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: some good news on the injury refront for the Bills 37 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: that we learned yesterday. Isaiah McKenzie at Oliver full participants 38 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: in practice Wednesday. They're back out there practicing today. McKenzie, 39 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: as we told you yesterday, is out of the concussion protocol, 40 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: So it looks like he's good to go for this 41 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: week after missing last week's game. And Oliver a full participant, 42 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: you know, looks like it means he's finally fully recovered 43 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: from you know, the ankle injury that had been plaguing 44 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: him since Week one. He did play last week, but 45 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: you know, how do you feel coming off of the 46 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: game is probably even more important. Payer, Edmonds, Benford all 47 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: working their way back to full health. All those guys 48 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 1: were limited in practice yesterday, but all of them practicing 49 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: again today, so that's a good sign. And then Kayer 50 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: Elam and to Quan Jones steve new additions to the 51 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: injury report. Elam, with a foot injury, was limited in 52 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: practice yesterday, but he is back out there again today. 53 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: Da Kuan Jones limited with a hip injury and he 54 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: was back out there today after being limited yesterday, So 55 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: those are encouraging things. And then even Jordan Phillips, who 56 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: was limited with the hamstring injury yesterday after reaggravating it 57 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: in the game on Sunday against Pittsburgh, back out there 58 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: for a second straight day of practice. So a lot 59 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: of guys trending in the right direction. The only guy 60 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: we didn't see out there yes yesterday and today at 61 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: least during the media viewing portion of practice was Taiwan Jones. 62 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: So guys working their way back on the whole, which 63 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: is a good thing obviously. Yeah, and it's it's you know, 64 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: you hate to you hate to you know, you know, 65 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: chink yourself, I guess, is what I'm saying. Guys are 66 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: getting healthier, but there's no guarantees that everybody's going to 67 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: stay healthy again. There might be a whole slew of 68 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: different guys getting hurt this week. It just the way 69 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 1: it is. We haven't had to deal with this for 70 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 1: like two years. Since before twenty twenty, this team has 71 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: been one of the healthiest in the league for whatever reason. 72 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 1: I have no idea why, and there's no rhyme or 73 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: reason to it except they got a nice program and 74 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: they keep these guys healthy. They give them plenty of rest, 75 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: and they give them all access to all the latest 76 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: and greatest treatment processes, and the guys use it. Don't 77 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: know what's whether that's changed this year or what, but 78 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: you know, you knew it was going to catch up 79 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: to you at some point. So getting healthier during the 80 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 1: regular seat. That's awesome, it's great. Don't know the problem is, 81 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: you just don't know how long it's gonna last. But 82 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: because now you got Mackenzie knocks, they're back in the 83 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: mix offensively. Gabe Davis now seems to be one week 84 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: past the week being past an injury that he's been 85 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: dragging around for a couple of weeks. So the receiving 86 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: corps looks to be as healthy as it's been outside 87 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: of Jake Kumereau, who's still ankle sprain. Yeah, you know, 88 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: Jordan Phillips in one hundred percent at Oliver will see 89 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,799 Speaker 1: he's a full participant in practice, so yeah, we'll see. 90 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: Um you know, the secondary I don't know, that's not 91 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: even on the that's not even on the menu for 92 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: being close to being healthy. Well right. It is encouraging though, 93 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: to see Christian Benford out there running around just two 94 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: weeks removed from hand surgery. He does still have the 95 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 1: red non contact jersey on even if he can't go. 96 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: It's great because he can stay in football readiness, you know, 97 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: so soon right as soon as his hand's not hurting 98 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 1: or whatever the thing is that's keeping him out, his 99 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:06,679 Speaker 1: legs are going to be that he's running through drills, 100 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 1: he's doing all that stuff. He just can't you know, 101 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: as you can imagine, he can't grab and pull with 102 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: no contact, and he didn't want to by slap in 103 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: the back of his hand trying to get him off, 104 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So you can't hand fight 105 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: as a dB without your hand hard to play that 106 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: and so but he can go out there and run 107 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 1: through some stuff and stay sharp, which is a big boost. 108 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: So he'll be better when he comes back. Chief's injury 109 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 1: report not quite as long as that of the Bills, 110 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: but they have some interesting players on the injury report. 111 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: They've got guys in their secondary dinged up, although most 112 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: of them are backups. Starting corner Rashad Fenton, however, as 113 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: a hamstring injury, did not practice yesterday. They're obviously an 114 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: hour behind us on Central time, so we'll wait and 115 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: see what the Thursday injury report has in store for 116 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. But Fenton would be a loss in a 117 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: secondary that is not as deep as it used to be. 118 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,919 Speaker 1: They're basically starting a rookie at the other corner in 119 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 1: Jalen Watson. There is a chance that they'll get their 120 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: first round draft choice Trent McDuffie back from a bad 121 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: hamstring injury that he's suffered in Week one. He's been 122 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: out of the lineup since then, so I would presume, 123 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: you know, if Fenton can go, but mc McDuffie is up, 124 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: They're gonna start two rookies at corner, their first round 125 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: picked Trent McDuffie and their seventh round picked Jayalen Watson. 126 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: That's an interesting scenario there. We did concerning the Bills passing. 127 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: I know that, I know that, and then Lagarius Snee, 128 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: the veteran, would be the nickelback as he has been 129 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: for the last few years. So it's something to keep 130 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: an eye on. Is McDuffie ready number one and is 131 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: Fenton coming back from a hamstring injury number two this 132 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: week to play? You look at this, this game is 133 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: gonna be one hundred and one hundred to ninety nine. 134 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: I don't think so, right, whoever gets you come on, 135 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: what are you talking about it? I mean it feels 136 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: like that that they or the lead changed hands, Like 137 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 1: was it three times in the last two minutes of 138 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 1: overtime and overtime three or four scored and yeah, twenty 139 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: five points. These guys scored when they and you know, 140 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: obviously the defenses were gassed at that point that the 141 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: offenses were just humming. I don't know that it's going 142 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: to start out like that in this game. Um. The 143 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: last time in that stadium in the regular season, the 144 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: Bills held them to twenty points. Um, you know, and 145 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: they both scored in the thirties the last time they played. 146 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, this is it really seems like the 147 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: offenses that you're gonna have to keep up with each 148 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: other offensively, and then you look at which defense is 149 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: better equipped to get at least, you know, get a 150 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: stop at some point, you know, Um, And it's it's 151 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: a hard call to make. It's a hard call to make. 152 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: And it looks like Pro Football Talk just provided an 153 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: update on Chiefs practice for today and Rashad Fenton not 154 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: practicing again today with the hamstring injury for the Chiefs, 155 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: So that's a development. Frank Clark also not practicing. He's 156 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: been dealing with injuries. We had Dane and Hughes on 157 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: our podcast this week, Bills by the Number, as we 158 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: taped it yesterday. It's out for your listening pleasure on 159 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: any podcast platform that you use, and he was telling 160 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: us that Frank Clark just hasn't looked right this season, 161 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: and they a lot of people are saying he's not 162 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: one hundred percent healthy. He's dragging some stuff around, kind 163 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: of similar to way some Bills players have been doing. 164 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: So he was limited yesterday due to illness. He's not 165 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 1: going to practice today though, so it's not an injured 166 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: part of his body. He's just dealing with illness. So 167 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: I'll have to keep an eye on that and see 168 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: where that goes. Fenton, though, is a critical piece here 169 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: going forward, knowing the players that the Bills can deploy 170 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: on the field, and I was gonna bounce this off. 171 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: You steve a little bit just to get into a 172 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: little bit of the personnel grouping stuff. We haven't seen 173 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: a whole lot of ten personnel from the Bills this year, 174 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: but with the emergence of Khalil Shakir and now Isaiah 175 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: Mackenzie healthy, you've got some young, inexperienced corners in the 176 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: chief secondary. If Fenton doesn't play, I'm not saying you 177 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: go to four wides the whole game, but maybe you 178 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: got a package of plays where you're putting four guys 179 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: on the field spread that unit thin you might. You 180 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: want to see how deep they go at corner and 181 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: if they want to leave, if they want to leave 182 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:44,239 Speaker 1: their linebackers on the field against your four wide package. 183 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: You got to see if they can hold up. Now 184 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: what comes to and say, well, they'll never be able 185 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: to match up with the Bills, you know, going that 186 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: deep on their team. You know what I mean. The 187 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: problem is you got to protect it. You got to 188 00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 1: protect Josh, and so you can put all these guys 189 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: out there, but if they send more than you can block, 190 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,319 Speaker 1: you better have an option, you better have an answer. Yeah. 191 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 1: So that's where you kind of like, okay, but you 192 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: know you've got five offensive linemen protecting Josh and he's 193 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: back there by himself, and you got four wides and 194 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: they start sending pressure, you bet you better be well 195 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: schooled on what your rules are, both in protection and 196 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: in getting open well quick. We saw some interesting protection 197 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 1: tweaks that coach Dorsey deployed last week. Of course it's 198 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: all on film now, so we're not telling any state secrets, 199 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: but they kept sweeing in along with a back a 200 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: few times on some of those deep shots that they 201 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: did take against the Steelers. And I'm not saying it's 202 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: going to look exactly the same as it did last week, 203 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 1: but some of those things had some good success. Yeah. 204 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: If Frank Clark's not one hundred percent the only guy 205 00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: you really got to worry about full time Jones, Chris Jones. Yeah, 206 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: here's the thing, he's a handful Well, their their draft pick, 207 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: Karloftis is getting some pretty good young player. Yeah, but 208 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: don't forget. Yeah, it was all fun in games. It 209 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 1: was grade in that Pittsburgh game thirty eight to three, awesome. Listen, 210 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: Josh got hit on his put on his back hard 211 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 1: by Cam Lewis during that game, and I thought Cam 212 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: Hayward and it was it looked bad. And even in 213 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: the ninety eight yard touchdown past third player from scrimmage 214 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: of the game, when we're all hooping and hollerand Josh 215 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: got hit in the mouth, you gotta have answers for that. 216 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,679 Speaker 1: Those plays count. And I don't mean count on the scoreboard. 217 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: Hey we're winning, it's grade. No, they count because you 218 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: got a quarterback on his back. So and I'm not 219 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: gonna be overprotective of a six five, two hundred and 220 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,199 Speaker 1: fifty pound quarterback who's rugged and runs the ball and 221 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: knocks people over and stiff arms defensive lineman. But you 222 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: need him every single game without fail to show up healthy. 223 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: So you can go ten personnel if you want. But 224 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: sooner or later, somebody's gonna get a shot on him. 225 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 1: And whenever he runs, half his runs are scrambles, almost 226 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: exactly half runs. I looked it up. Yeah, well, a 227 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago I did. Okay, it was half 228 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: his runs are off play play action play game games 229 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: when they're gonna pass it and he just takes off 230 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: and scrambles when he runs. Think about yourself as a 231 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 1: defender for the other team. How big a target does 232 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: Josh Allen have on him? When he's running down the field. 233 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: Everybody wants to take a shot at him, you're sure. 234 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if every corner wants to take a 235 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 1: shot on him when he's got a full head of steam. 236 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: When he's running down the field, they'll blow his both 237 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: his knees. Can't cut him. They he's running, he's got 238 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 1: the football. Oh he's got yeah, sorry, I'm thinking of 239 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: the lineman coming out. They will blow both his knees 240 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 1: out and get up and walk away. Like nothing, Well, 241 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: that's when he hurtles. All I'm saying is that's what 242 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: that's the mentality. Yeah, so you've got to have answers 243 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 1: if you're gonna go ten personnel. And like I said, 244 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: not I'm not saying it's the cruxier game plan, but 245 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: I'm curious if if you know they cast they tap 246 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: into that every little bit. I'm with you though, if 247 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: they can protect it and the Chiefs don't send extra people, 248 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 1: that's like a shore at ninety nine to ten, that's 249 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 1: nine that game. Well, yeah, that's that's when it does 250 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: get into a track meet, right. And we saw the 251 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: Bill the Bills last year in Week one get pulled 252 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: out of it because they couldn't protect against the Steelers. 253 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: In Week one last year, they were trying to run 254 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: ten personnel in the first half of that game and 255 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: they're five couldn't protect against the Steelers four, and it 256 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: pulled the Bills out of ten personnel. So I think 257 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: they'll be mindful of if they you don't run it 258 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 1: unless you know the protection can work to ste point 259 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: you're right up. And here's the thing too. I mean 260 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: we've seen Ken Dorsey and they've had a phenomenal year. 261 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: They're number two in the league and scoring behind the 262 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: team they're playing this week. And I think it gives 263 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: him now that we've been talking about we've been talking 264 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: about the offense seems to be really healthy. Knock knock 265 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: on wood, right, But that gives you a chance to 266 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: be a little bit more creative and to evolve quicker. 267 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: In fact, they're better than healthy because now there's some 268 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: things you know about Khalil Shaker that give you some 269 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: give you the ability to say, you know what, plug 270 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 1: that guy in there, you know what I mean? So, 271 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: and same thing with James Cook. He showed you a 272 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: little something finally getting his legs under him. Yeah, And 273 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: the fact that you haven't shown James Cook very much 274 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: in your offense is a little bit of an unknown 275 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: for the Chiefs. So if you do something, know something 276 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: about them more, feel like you do. Now's the time, right, 277 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 1: So in that respect, you gotta feel okay. You got 278 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: to feel pretty good about where the Bill's offense is 279 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: right now. Bill's Practice Updates presented by Lee com Lake 280 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. Is we get ready for 281 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: this gigantic game between the Bills and the Chiefs. This 282 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: week's game sponsor, incidentally is Gabe's Collision. Get back in 283 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: the game with Gabe's Collision, locally owned and operated since 284 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: nineteen sixty four, featuring three convenient locations. Follow him on 285 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: Facebook and Instagram to learn more for anyone that was wondering, Yes, 286 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: Tradavious White was back out there practicing again, second day 287 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: since his twenty one day window to practice opened. Still 288 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: wearing the red non contact jersey for him, So hopefully 289 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: it's full steam ahead for him getting back to quote 290 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: unquote game shape and hopefully sooner rather than later being 291 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: added to the active roster. But as you know, coach 292 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: me termin already said not playing this week, so presumably 293 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: the earliest he would be moved to the active roster 294 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 1: from reserve pup is week eight, because week seven is 295 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: by week, so there is that. We also wanted to 296 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: go around the NFL a little bit and don't know 297 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: if you saw this, Steve, but Rams head coach Sean 298 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: McVeigh he was being asked questions about the Odell Beckham 299 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 1: situation and their recruitment of him to come back to 300 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: the Rams, and there was some stuff on social media. 301 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: You know, Odell Beckham saying the Rams know where he 302 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: wants to be, but offered him the lowest of low offers. 303 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: So that set off this whole thing where Rams reporters 304 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 1: are going to mcvaigh saying, hey, you know, did you Lowballham? 305 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: What'd you do? Did you? Is this over between you 306 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 1: and Beckham because you lowballed him? And blah blah blah. 307 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: And so McVeigh stayed very calm through the whole question 308 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: and answer session and he said, look, the Rams haven't 309 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: made their last offer to Odell Beckham, just an initial 310 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: one which apparently wasn't very well received. I don't know. 311 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: And then we had von Miller here last week saying 312 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: he knows where Beckham's gonna end up. I and Beckham 313 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:09,880 Speaker 1: are close friends. It's the perfect fodder to discuss between 314 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 1: now and the time when he's ready to be medically 315 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 1: cleared in mid November. Is the word now. I refuse 316 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: to be distracted by ode. Just don't distract me. Yeah, 317 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: I got we got a game. We got a game 318 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 1: this week, and it's a big game, and it's an 319 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: important game, and I'm not going to be totally dismissive 320 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 1: of it, because good players make you better. I had 321 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: I had an interview last night on another platform and 322 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: they asked about McCaffrey. Yeah, good players make you better. Absolutely. 323 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: If the guy can come in and play well at 324 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: your place, of course you're gonna be a better team 325 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: because of it. Uh, there's a bunch of questions arise 326 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: though it is he gonna play better? Is he gonna 327 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 1: play well for you? Is it gonna cost you too 328 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: much to have him for the rest of this single season? 329 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: And what about going forward? What's the long term effects? 330 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: What are the ripple effects in three? Is he going 331 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: to be a disruption and a distraction for the locker room? 332 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: Is it gonna be something where your team is like, well, hey, 333 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: we're number two in the NFL and scoring right now, 334 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 1: we're four and one, we which should be five, and 335 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: oh if it wasn't for ninety five degree day, we're 336 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: not good enough all of a sudden, a little bit 337 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 1: of that, And you know, I'm sure now people have 338 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 1: their own perceptions about Odell Beckham Junior and Christian McCaffrey, 339 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: whatever the kind of person they think they are. The 340 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 1: acid test has always been and always will be. What 341 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: are their teammates say about him? If von Miller was 342 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: his teammate and said, now the guy's great, that's it good. 343 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: You don't have to worry about you don't have to 344 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: worry about him coming in and all of a sudden 345 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: there's a fight in the locker room. That's not going 346 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,959 Speaker 1: to happen. So that when they come in and present themselves. 347 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: Was his good teammates and all that's all that. Let's go, 348 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 1: let's go. That's fine. Good players make you better. If 349 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,360 Speaker 1: if you want to bring him in, that's great. Where's 350 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,439 Speaker 1: he gonna get his targets from? Who's giving him up? 351 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: A guy like Beckham and a guy and that's sorry 352 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,880 Speaker 1: about a little further down the world. And also this, 353 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,120 Speaker 1: you're not gonna if you bring Christian McCaffrey in here, 354 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? Hand it off twenty five 355 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: times instead of twelve or thirteen. No, you're not changing 356 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 1: you're not changing anything. So I don't know that it 357 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, if you're gonna get McCaffrey for nothing, 358 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,159 Speaker 1: not nothing, but I'm exaggerating. Obviously, if you get him 359 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: for a low enough price for for a rental at 360 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: the end of the season, maybe you think about it. 361 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: The structure of his contract makes it possible, right, I 362 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: just don't think the I don't think it's a priority 363 00:20:54,400 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: position in terms of big money. Absolutely in the eyes 364 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: of Brandon Bean and I realize you can get him 365 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: for a song this year and all the dead money 366 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: goes away if you acquired him. But to me, what 367 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: the bills are offensively, I don't know that it jives 368 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: with what McCaffrey would bring you. Sure, you could throw 369 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: it to him out of the backfield and all of 370 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 1: that stuff, but I don't know. I don't I don't know. 371 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: It doesn't feel like I mean, McCaffrey's a talented player, 372 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: don't get me wrong. The injury history is a concern, 373 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,479 Speaker 1: and he's a he's still you know, he's twenty seven 374 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: and he's got a long injury history that's not positive. 375 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: What happens when he gets older, He's gonna be injured. 376 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm buying are you? Are you 377 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: that much better with him than without him? Yeah? I 378 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah, I don't know that he's a putsch 379 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: over the top guy. I don't think that position is 380 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: a putsch over the top guy. And you just drafted 381 00:21:57,960 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 1: a guy that does a lot of the same things 382 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,199 Speaker 1: that he does. And his name's James Cook. Yeah, I 383 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 1: would rather exactly, I would rather. I would rather if 384 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: it would be better if McCaffrey played corner you know 385 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: right there, safety, I wish you'd you know, I don't 386 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: need a running back. I got him. Yeah. Does he play? 387 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: Was okay? Does he play? You know? What's he? Does 388 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:21,919 Speaker 1: he play a line or something? I mean, give us 389 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: a give us something we can we can use. I'm 390 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,479 Speaker 1: I don't I don't need that. I don't need a 391 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: running back. You know, we always use another corner because 392 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: then if he can't play, that's fine, put him money, 393 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: practice whatever. We might be getting a cornerback pretty soon too, 394 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 1: that's right, pretty pretty damn good one. Yeah, it's just 395 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:46,120 Speaker 1: in you know. And I'll say this too when when 396 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: it's been my experiencehen tur Davis hits the field, he's 397 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: gonna look good. I think he looks good now, just 398 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 1: watching in the last two days during the media viewing 399 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: porst to practice, I think he's pretty good. To me, 400 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna fall into the line up and 401 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,199 Speaker 1: look extremely good right away. Yeah, that's what I think. Uh, 402 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: last thing for around the NFL Thursday Night Football, Steve, 403 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: are you strapped in? Are you ready for this? Barn 404 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: Burner Commanders Bears. The biggest thing to come out of 405 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,120 Speaker 1: this matchup right now leading up to it, is that 406 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz is gonna play despite the fact that he's 407 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: battling a bicep tendon strain in his throwing arm. Like, 408 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 1: that's not nothing, you know what I mean? We probably 409 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: won't notice. Wow, wow, we probably shots fired here at 410 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: one Bills Live look out.

Bills Offense, Bills Defense, Chiefs Offense, 471 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: Chiefs Defense, no offense, special teams. Sorry, we just didn't 472 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: have enough choices. Sorry, Steve Um. Leading the way is 473 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 1: Bill's Defense with more than two thirds of the vote 474 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 1: out of the gate. Holy mackerel, I was going to 475 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: vote Bills defense too, but man, I wasn't expecting it 476 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: to be that lopside. Of course, no one's picking the 477 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: Chiefs to do anything to win the game, right, everybody, 478 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what we're are. All the Chiefs fans, 479 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: I don't get it. They don't they don't watch, they 480 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 1: don't watch our show. Listen to them. Yeah, that's the 481 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: Bills defense is. And we'll get some of this on 482 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: the tweet sheet, I'm sure, But the Bills defense is 483 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,880 Speaker 1: the the side of the ball that sticks out amongst them. 484 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: Both offenses are spectacular, fast, versatile, and they score a 485 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: lot of points. Not so much with both defenses. Yeah, 486 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: the Bills defense is averaging giving up less than thirteen 487 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 1: points a game. That's pretty good. And the Chiefs can't 488 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: boast that. Now. They've had a different schedule than the Bills. 489 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 1: No question that the Chiefs have played some different teams. 490 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:04,919 Speaker 1: I mean, the Chiefs play schedules last week. The Chiefs 491 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: have played the Cardinals, the Chargers, the Colts, the Buccaneers, 492 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: and the Raiders. How the heck did they lose to 493 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: the Colts. Somebody's got to help me with you. I don't. 494 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 1: I gotta go back and watch that. Listen the same 495 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: way the Bills lost the Jaguar. Find out what the 496 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: hiszy happened? Now the Bills played the Rams, Titans, Dolphins, Ravens, Steelers. 497 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: I mean those first four was it was not uneasy. 498 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 1: It wasn't a walk on the bars and a walk 499 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 1: in the park. I mean, the scoreboard made it look 500 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: that way for the first two games, but it wasn't 501 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 1: but the Bills games. The Bills, didn't you know? They 502 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: allowed seventeen points in their first two games against the 503 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 1: number against the Super Bowl champions and then a one 504 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 1: seed from the conference. So it's pretty good first two 505 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: weeks of the season for the Bills. Yeah, we have 506 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: to take a break here because when we return, it 507 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: is time for us to catch up with our good 508 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: friend Field Yates, the fantasy football guru from ESPN, as 509 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: he is going to give us his ultimate fan see lineup, 510 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: which is presented every week by Fan Duel. We'll catch 511 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: up with Field next here on One Bills Live presented 512 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: by Kalada Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right, Here 513 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: we are One Bills Live on a Thursday. Chris Brown, 514 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: Steve Tasker with you, and it is time now, as 515 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: we do every week in this time slot, for the 516 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: ultimate Fantasy lineup. I gotta get some reverb on that. 517 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: I know we need an echo presented by FanDuel make 518 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 1: every moment more and here to present his ultimate fantasy 519 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: lineup is none other than the ESPN Fantasy football guru 520 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: that you know and love, one Field Yates with his 521 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: Week six magic Feel how you doing? I'm doing great, guys. 522 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: Good to be on with you. I'm trying to think 523 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 1: as far as reverb goes. So you've got the big 524 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: horn out there in Minnesota. Do you like that or 525 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 1: do you hate it? I know Aaron Rodgers does not 526 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: like it? Right, what do they gotta We have a 527 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: train horn here. We play on third downs in the time. Mart, Yeah, 528 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: that was pretty good. I like that. That would work 529 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: as well. So you could probably adopt one of those two. 530 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: I like, I like where your head's at, Brownie. Whatever. Yeah, 531 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: whatever you want, Field, we'll try and make it happen. 532 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna We're gonna kick off Week six here. 533 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: Field with maybe the shortest quarterback in football, but he 534 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: does put up points. Yeah, short and stature, tall and 535 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: value as far as fantasy is concerned. That is of course. 536 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray eighty three hundred dollars is the price point 537 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 1: on Sunday for this game that if you're watching live 538 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 1: you'll see says four oh five pm. But just a reminder, 539 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: it could be pushed back to five thirty pm if 540 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: the Seattle Mariners win either tonight's game or tomorrow night's 541 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: game against the Houston Astros. If there's a game four 542 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: between those two teams. It will be played on Sunday 543 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,719 Speaker 1: at five thirty so as to not conflict with the 544 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 1: entirety of the part of the baseball game. But Kyler, 545 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: you know, here's what you're looking for as opportunities. And 546 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: if you were to add up passing attempts and rushing 547 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 1: attempts per game for Kyler, the number is nearly fifty 548 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: this year, So plenty of opportunity for Kyler. And that 549 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: Seahawks defense has been bad. We are no longer in 550 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: the era of the Legion of Boom. It is now 551 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 1: the Legion of boom It is a very offensive minded 552 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: team in Seattle. It And why is Kyler with all 553 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: the with all fifty opportunities? Why eighty three hundred? What's 554 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: what's the reasoning? How did he get off? Because that 555 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 1: seems cheap to me? Yeah, you know, I'd say it's 556 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: it's it's probably I would say maybe a little bit 557 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: less than I would expect, Steve. Probably the biggest reason 558 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: why is that while Kyler has been slid this year, 559 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 1: we've got the elite tier of quarterbacks for fantasy There's 560 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: four of them in particular. You may be familiar with 561 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, and also Jalen Hurts 562 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 1: this year who have just been so good. Right, you're 563 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: getting a little bit of a discount on the guys 564 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 1: that haven't just run through the league those four half 565 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 1: of the first five weeks of the season. Makes sense. 566 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: What about let's drop down of the running backs. Who 567 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: did you pick up Buffalo flavor here, Steve, I'm loving it. 568 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: You got some buffalo flavor. By the way, a lot 569 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: of a lot of NFC West in this lineup, but 570 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 1: we'll have some Buffalo in a minute. Jeff Wilson Junior 571 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: seventy two hundred bucks for the San Francisco boardy nine ers. 572 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: I expect them to win on Sunday. They're favorite against Atlanta. 573 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: In the three games that they've won this year, Jeff 574 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: Wilson Junior has at least seventeen rushing attempts, so good opportunities. 575 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 1: He's got a thirty plus yard run three straight games. 576 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 1: I think they'll be able to control the game. And 577 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: you know that that passing game in San Francisco is 578 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: never really the calling card. They're they're a run run first, 579 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: runoff and team and with the way that they're playing 580 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: defense right now, and on a per play basis, in 581 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: a points per game basis, nobody's better. San Francisco can 582 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: really slow the game down by playing good defense and 583 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: running the football. Devin Singletary, who you mentioned, are you 584 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 1: guys forecasted in this game? You know, people who are 585 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 1: playing in daily fantasy understand that if you're going to 586 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: have high exposure to one game, it might mean less 587 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: exposure to other games. And with a lot of Seattle, 588 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: Arizona in my lineup, I wanted some Kansas City Buffalo 589 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: in my lineup as well. But as you guys know, 590 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: beyond that, Devon's become the guy in the backfield. He 591 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: as a fifteen plus yard game in four straight games, 592 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: and you guys saw Josh Jacobs run all over that 593 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 1: Chiefs defense last week. The Bills probably never going to 594 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 1: be a team that works to establish the run early 595 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: and often. But if they have ten or twelve or 596 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: fifteen opportunities four Devon Singletary on Sunday afternoon wouldn't surprise 597 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 1: me if he used them pretty effectively, right And Singletary, yeah, 598 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: because he's kind of I know, he disappointed people last 599 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 1: week because his workload wasn't as heavy with the Bills 600 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 1: airing it out in the passing game, and he had 601 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 1: been used for about three weeks as a heavy checkdown 602 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: option by Josh. What do you do when you have 603 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: a guy that's a little bit of an enigma like that, 604 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: you know, and maybe there hasn't been enough weeks of 605 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: the season to really kind of feel out what he's 606 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: going to be on a week to week basis. Well, 607 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: the good news is for daily fantasy is you can 608 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: bypass or invest in a player at your leisure. Right, 609 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: there's no rule that says you have to start or 610 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,760 Speaker 1: sit a particular guy as far as season long fantasy goes. 611 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: Maybe in a different year, I tell you you gotta 612 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: just stashed Devon Singletary on the bench. But the problem 613 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 1: is that there have been so few running backs that 614 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,799 Speaker 1: have been consistent so far this season that it's not 615 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: like you're benching Devon Singletary because there are five guys 616 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: who have emerged out of nowhere so far this season. 617 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: So I think Devon's going to end up staying in 618 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,360 Speaker 1: more lineups than people might forecast based off of the 619 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,359 Speaker 1: some of the inconsistency. But at the end of the day, 620 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:39,920 Speaker 1: if you play in the Bills offense, you got a 621 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,839 Speaker 1: chance to play to pay off. And I know that 622 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 1: there might be some visions of this game being a 623 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: little bit less of a shootout than it was when 624 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: these two teams met back in January, but I am 625 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: forecasting a ton of points on the board on Sunday 626 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 1: and can now with wide receiver you are mashing the 627 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: NFC West buttoner. Holy cow, I am, let's just mash 628 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: one game. I'm gonna give you the wide receivers and 629 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: the tight end Rondel Moore, Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf and 630 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,240 Speaker 1: zach Ertz. I basically won as much of this game 631 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: as possible. You know, the Seahawks numbers defensively, if you 632 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: look at against the pass, may not look all that 633 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: terrible when you come you comb through some of the 634 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: fantasy metrics. The problem is they don't play that many 635 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 1: plays on defense, so they are really really struggling on 636 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 1: a per paid bass per play basis. That's why you 637 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 1: get Rondell Moore and zach Ertz, who, by the way, 638 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: Ertz has been really good all year. And more. You're 639 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: getting a bit of a discount and a guy who 640 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: played really well last week, but I was previously injured 641 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 1: as much of that game as possible when I want 642 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: to tire Lockett in dk Metcalf. As far as surprise 643 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: has going, how many have been better in terms of 644 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 1: surprises than Gino Smith at quarterback this year. I mean, 645 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 1: he's been awesome for the past three weeks. In particular, 646 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 1: he's outplayed Russell Wilson that much is for sure, and 647 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: chucking the football down the field a ton right now. 648 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: So with the way that those two wide receivers are built, 649 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: shouldn't be a surprise if plenty of fantasy points are 650 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,320 Speaker 1: on the board again this Sunday afterwards. What's Gino Smith's 651 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 1: price been hovering around the last few weeks? Field, just here, 652 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: whatever it's been, it's been too it's been too cheap. 653 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 1: But the answer is the answer is too low. You're 654 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: you're getting costco pricing on Gino Smith and he should 655 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 1: be Whole Foods right now. Wow, he's been awesome. He 656 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: has been really, really good, And I just you know, 657 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: the part of what makes sports great, guys is you 658 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 1: know we you guys do a show every day that's 659 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: dedicated mostly to one team, and you do so throughout 660 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,720 Speaker 1: the offseason, and we all talk about a million different things. 661 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:40,880 Speaker 1: And then it's the stuff that no, none of us 662 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 1: were talking about, right, none of us were talking about 663 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:46,800 Speaker 1: Gino Smith being a top ten quarterback through five weeks 664 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 1: of the season. And you know that list as I 665 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: suppose a bit subjective, but Gino's at least in the 666 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: conversation for have been having been a top ten quarterbacks 667 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,439 Speaker 1: so far this year, and that's been fun to see. Yeah, 668 00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 1: and it's you're right, we were snickering at who they 669 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 1: were had Drew Locke or Gino Smith. It was like, 670 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 1: there's no you know, they're gonna stink, but they're playing 671 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 1: better than the Denver broncoisard. Their offense is playing better 672 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:10,920 Speaker 1: women and Gino is a big reason why. It's a 673 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 1: real shocker. Is one of the fun things about sports. 674 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 1: Let's what about your flight, guys, why we play the games? 675 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: That's right, talk to us a little about your flex 676 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,879 Speaker 1: Aaron Jones. Yeah, let's end things off with some style here. 677 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 1: Aaron Jones at seventy three hundred dollars and the Buccaneers 678 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 1: on defense. I won't dive too deep into the Bucks defensively. 679 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,320 Speaker 1: Other than you guys watched the Steelers last week. On offense, 680 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: They're a mess, They're a disaster, They're pretty much hopeless 681 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: right now. But Aaron Jones with the flex, My gut 682 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:41,320 Speaker 1: tells me this is that after a really disappointing finish 683 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 1: to the game last week in London against the New 684 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: York Giants, the Packers are probably having some some moments 685 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,880 Speaker 1: of reflection right now, a lot of that looking inwards. 686 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: And as you look at this offense with the way 687 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: that it's built right now, the best players are at 688 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 1: running back obviously beyond Aaron Rodgers, their best players are 689 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,919 Speaker 1: their two running backs, AJ Dillon and Aaron Jones behind 690 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 1: what can be a very good offensive line. Passing game 691 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 1: had a couple of moments this year and as I said, 692 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 1: they look like a team that traded the way perhaps 693 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 1: the best wide receiver in the NFL, right and they did. 694 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: They tried away to Monday Adams, and that's the reality 695 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 1: of what happens when you do that. You took a 696 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 1: major step down to the passing game. So in doing so, 697 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 1: they need to adjust to what they do well. And 698 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 1: to me, what they do best is from the football, 699 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,719 Speaker 1: which is why I think Aaron Jones is a very 700 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: busy man this upcoming week field, I'm looking at your lineup. 701 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 1: I think Tampa might might get you the most points 702 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: this week. I mean against that Pittsburgh offense. Yikes, ten 703 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: point ten point four predicted points is a ton for 704 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 1: a defense they are. I mean, the Buccaneers defense is solid, 705 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,360 Speaker 1: but that that Pittsburgh offense. Guys. You know, if I 706 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: told you blindly, you could have Deonte Johnson, Chase Claypool, 707 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: George Pickens, Naji Harris, and Pat Fryarmuth as your five 708 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: skill guys, you probably like that. And yet the Steelers 709 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:04,360 Speaker 1: you do not like that at all. Right now. The 710 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 1: way that they are operating is just difficult to watch, 711 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: and I'm not sure it gets much better. Can you Pickett? 712 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 1: In terms of starting slates to have to face as 713 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 1: a rookie Buffalo and then Tampa not easy at all. Yeah, 714 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:23,280 Speaker 1: and their offensive line is probably the biggest problem because 715 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 1: Picktt made some plays here last week, you know, despite 716 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,360 Speaker 1: being under pressure, behind on the scoreboard one dimension and 717 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 1: as an offense, you know, he made some play. It 718 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,840 Speaker 1: finished with over three hundred yards passing, So he's got some. 719 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 1: He's got he's got some promise, but man, they got 720 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: to fix that line. They haven't invested in the line 721 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: of the draft either early. Yep, the Steeler line. Yeah, 722 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: it's gonna be it is, it may get late early. 723 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 1: We all talk about the stat and Mike Tomlin's never 724 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 1: finished with the record below five hundred, but it certainly 725 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 1: feels like there's a possibility that that streak is in 726 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 1: great jeopardy this season. All right, Field, thanks as always 727 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 1: enjoy the Bills a Chiefs game because I know you're 728 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 1: not maybe expecting it to be a barn burner, but 729 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: something always seems to happen there. And he's and Steve's 730 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 1: got the train horn for you. Yeah, yeah, I can 731 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 1: tell you guys enjoying the Answer Championship game on Sunday. 732 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 1: All right, thanks, Field, we appreciate it. That's ESPN's Field 733 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:18,840 Speaker 1: h joining us as he does every week with his 734 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 1: ultimate fantasy lineup presented by Fan Duel. Make every moment more. 735 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, man, like that Tampa defense. I think 736 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:32,759 Speaker 1: that against Pittsburgh, I mean it is it is in Pittsburgh, 737 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 1: so that helps a little bit. But they're not gonna 738 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,400 Speaker 1: have any better day than the Bills defense did against him. 739 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I think they're gonna They're gonna 740 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 1: get home a few times. I think, yeah, they might 741 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:45,360 Speaker 1: pick it, might get a little beat up and see, 742 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 1: we'll see. I'll tell you what though, you and I 743 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,800 Speaker 1: both said it, Um, he's not you know, it's a 744 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 1: down weak for him. It's hard to hard to find 745 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:55,319 Speaker 1: any positives in a thirty eighth to three beat down. 746 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: I think the kid can play, Yeah, I do too. 747 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: I don't know what about his line and all that. 748 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 1: His line is grossly underachieving, and it's an offensive line. 749 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 1: The Steelers uncharacteristically have not invested high draft picks and 750 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: stealers are always a nuts and bolts football team. They 751 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 1: always seem to get it right, and they have forgotten 752 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 1: you know that's made them so successful. There's there's no 753 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:23,719 Speaker 1: question they got some great offensive weapons around him, but 754 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: they just can't get to them because of the problems 755 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 1: I have upfront. Break time here, but your phone calls 756 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 1: next as we are asking you what unit makes a 757 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 1: play to win the game on Sunday.

Seamless efficient, pristine craftsmanship. 767 00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 1: Yet back in the game with Gabe's Collision, the official 768 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,839 Speaker 1: auto collision repair center of the Buffalo Bills. We're going 769 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 1: to get to the phones right now at eighth three 770 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 1: five fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty. 771 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: Which unit makes the play to win the game on Sunday. 772 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 1: You can let us know there or on the tweet sheet. 773 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 1: But we lead off with Bob and Hamburg. Bob, what 774 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: you got for us? You're on One Bills Live. I've 775 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 1: just tired of all this stuff about the light in 776 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:53,359 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks. You know, Bush Smith, Jack Lamberg, Meanjoe Green, 777 00:42:53,960 --> 00:43:01,839 Speaker 1: eighty straight quarterbacks and behind of Fame. This is getting ridiculous. 778 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:07,319 Speaker 1: Quarterback stands extra referee for two minutes. Then flows the plague. Ah. 779 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 1: I see Steve task or destroy a guy on a 780 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:15,280 Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams many years ago on a pun return 781 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:18,959 Speaker 1: and knocking back five yards eat you get a penalty either. 782 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 1: It just isn't not football. I'm sorry. Well, they changed 783 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:29,280 Speaker 1: the rules unfortunately, Bob, in the name of player safety. 784 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,479 Speaker 1: I'll say this, Yes, you're right, Bob, thirty years ago, 785 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 1: many years ago, as you said, a long time ago, 786 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:39,080 Speaker 1: a lifetime ago, it was a different game. And let 787 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:42,920 Speaker 1: me just reiterate as well, thirty years before that, so 788 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 1: you're talking sixty years ago, back in the sixties. It 789 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 1: was a different game than it was thirty years ago. 790 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: And I don't think it's hard to debate, and I 791 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,799 Speaker 1: know it's it's we get a little romantics. We romanticize 792 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 1: the physicality of it a little bit and the brutality 793 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 1: of it some you know, somehow we do that. But 794 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 1: it's it's a different game for a good reason. You 795 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 1: get guys that play it longer, great players to play 796 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 1: it longer. You get to enjoy a longer career from 797 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 1: these guys, more seasons of their greatness, their their quality 798 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 1: of life after they finished playing is way better. The 799 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 1: game has never been bigger and more attention grabbing than 800 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 1: it is now. So whatever it was then, it's even 801 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: more compelling and fun to watch now because it's more 802 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 1: entertaining now. The run game has diminished. Special teams have diminished, 803 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 1: and it's about offense and defense now, mostly offense because 804 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,279 Speaker 1: people want to see guys throw the football and catch 805 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 1: it and run. I mean they want to see guys 806 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 1: doing that. Yes, the game is vastly different than it was, 807 00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 1: and old guys like you know, like Bob and Hamburg 808 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 1: and me sitting here, and some of the times you 809 00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 1: kind of missed that. But I said it last week. 810 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:10,319 Speaker 1: I said it about once a week every week, that 811 00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 1: it was a brutal game fifty or sixty years ago. 812 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:20,279 Speaker 1: I mean viciously brutal almost. It's incomprehensible how these guys 813 00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:24,759 Speaker 1: survived it in one piece. It was a brutal game, 814 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 1: and it's better now because it's not that brutal. It 815 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 1: just is. I know, it's not as physical, and sometimes 816 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:41,400 Speaker 1: the physicality is what we all crave, but we also 817 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: crave seeing the stars play. And by making it the 818 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 1: way it is now, there's a better chance that the 819 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 1: great players and the guys we really want to see 820 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:51,840 Speaker 1: the Peyton Mannings, Tom Brady's, Josh Allen's, Pat Mahomes, Aaron 821 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 1: Rodgers of the world, along with Davante Adams of the 822 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 1: world and the Steph Digs of the world. It's a 823 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,680 Speaker 1: better game because we get to see those guys every week. 824 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:05,360 Speaker 1: Right before we take a break here, we wanted to 825 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 1: mention there was a small gathering for a retirement ceremony 826 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 1: for one Scott bursht old, former vice president Communications here 827 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:17,920 Speaker 1: with the Bills, thirty three year career with the Bills, Yeah, 828 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:22,760 Speaker 1: and announced his retirement back in April, but was formally 829 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:26,879 Speaker 1: recognized today at the stadium.

But that guy guided Jim, Ruce, Thurman, 841 00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:03,160 Speaker 1: Andre and the whole crew, all of those guys through 842 00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:05,480 Speaker 1: all those years.

Next here 857 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,640 Speaker 1: on one Bills Live presented by Klatta Health, It's Buffalo 858 00:47:56,680 --> 00:48:39,839 Speaker 1: Bill's radio les one Bills Live presented by called light 859 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 1: of health. Welcome to our number two one bills Live 860 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:47,279 Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker, and gonna jump right into it 861 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 1: right now because the guy that's joining us, editor in 862 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,120 Speaker 1: chief and lead writer for sp Nations Arrowhead Pride, is 863 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 1: waiting to enter Chief's practice in just a little bit. 864 00:48:57,120 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 1: It's Pete Sweeney joining us. Pete, how you doing. I'm 865 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,880 Speaker 1: doing well. Good to talk to you guys from Kansas City. Yeah, 866 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:07,719 Speaker 1: so I wanted to begin here because there's been some 867 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:11,360 Speaker 1: rumblings that Andy Reid may actually be interested in running 868 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:15,279 Speaker 1: the ball here and there. The percentages, the percentages are 869 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:17,600 Speaker 1: down from what they usually are. This is usually a 870 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: sixty plus percent passing team, and through the first five 871 00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:24,359 Speaker 1: weeks they're fifty eight percent pass forty two percent run. 872 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 1: What are we seeing here through the first five weeks 873 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:32,240 Speaker 1: from this Chief's offense. Well, I think with the change 874 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 1: of Tyree Hill leaving in the offseason via trait to Miami, 875 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,920 Speaker 1: you know into that division, you're seeing that when you 876 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 1: have a guy like Wattle and Hill, it doesn't necessarily 877 00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:45,359 Speaker 1: mean you need to be as even when it comes 878 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 1: to pass versus run, because of the speed they provide. 879 00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 1: The Chiefs lost a big asset in Tyree Hill. He's 880 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 1: unlike any player. And so now I think you're seeing 881 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:57,319 Speaker 1: them switched a little bit more of methodical football than 882 00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:00,400 Speaker 1: what fans here would call the Legion of Zoom. And 883 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 1: I think they realized, we need to establish the run 884 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:05,279 Speaker 1: to set up this passing game. If we're gonna be 885 00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:08,360 Speaker 1: able to win. You can put extra attention on Travis Kelsey. 886 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:11,040 Speaker 1: You need supplemental production from some of your other past 887 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 1: catchers as well. But the more even it can be, 888 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,680 Speaker 1: I think the better it does for opening up things 889 00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 1: in the past game. And Andy Reid, if there's one 890 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:20,320 Speaker 1: thing he is through the twenty eight plus years in 891 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:23,640 Speaker 1: the NFL, it's adapting to the players he has on 892 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 1: his team. The Chiefs no longer have Tyree kill anymore, 893 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:27,719 Speaker 1: and and so I think they realize it needs to 894 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:30,200 Speaker 1: be more balanced. Well, we watched the game last week, 895 00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 1: and you know, you see Travis Kelsey catch four balls 896 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 1: but only for twenty five yards. How has this evolution 897 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 1: of this offense affected Travis Kelsey. Well, again, it used 898 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 1: to be this one too punch and the team in 899 00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 1: the off season was, no, We're gonna get you guys 900 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 1: from everywhere we're going to be distributing the football to 901 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:57,840 Speaker 1: a guy's like MBS, Mark Quez Valdez, Scantling, Juju Smith, Schust, McCole, Hardman, 902 00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:01,200 Speaker 1: And you know what, there's been some growing pains with 903 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 1: that in the sense said it takes a lot to 904 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:06,520 Speaker 1: figure out, Okay, how to look at all your reads 905 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:09,840 Speaker 1: and distribute the football. And when you only have Travis 906 00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:12,720 Speaker 1: Kelsey as what you would consider that elite pass catcher 907 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:15,520 Speaker 1: again Hill now with the Dolphins, you can give him 908 00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 1: extra attention. And I think the Raiders did a really 909 00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 1: nice job of curving him. I know it sounds crazy 910 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 1: to say when a guy scores four touchdowns for the 911 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:25,680 Speaker 1: only time in his ten year career, but he only 912 00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 1: had twenty five yards. Said they did. They could have 913 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:29,560 Speaker 1: done a better job in the red zone. He was 914 00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:31,880 Speaker 1: able to get separation in the red zone. He always 915 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:34,399 Speaker 1: has been able to do that. But this is something 916 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 1: I think the Chiefs should get used to. Is something 917 00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:38,479 Speaker 1: that Travis Kelsey should get used to. And I thought 918 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:41,279 Speaker 1: the Chiefs had a breakthrough in a sense when the 919 00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:44,640 Speaker 1: Raiders were giving Kelsey this extra attention. You got your 920 00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 1: best game from Marquez Valle the scantling and you got 921 00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:49,399 Speaker 1: your best game from Micole Hardman. You'd only really seen 922 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 1: Mahomes trust Juju a lot more to this point, and 923 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:54,960 Speaker 1: I think for the Chiefs to be able to see 924 00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:58,080 Speaker 1: okay Ds and Hardman can produce in these spots, it 925 00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:00,759 Speaker 1: was good to learn heading into such a game, an 926 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 1: important game against the Buffalo Bills. And so one last 927 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 1: one on the run game here, Pete, because it's now 928 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:10,719 Speaker 1: a three headed monster for all intents and purposes, with 929 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:14,960 Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Hilaire and Pacheco the rookie and McKinnon who 930 00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:18,680 Speaker 1: pops up you know on the radar last week. Is 931 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:21,399 Speaker 1: there any rhyme or reason to the deployment of those 932 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 1: guys or is it just going with hot hand? What 933 00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:28,480 Speaker 1: specific roles? How would you break down that three headed 934 00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:32,440 Speaker 1: monster there? The only rule we know right now is 935 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:34,960 Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Hilaire is going to touch the football first. 936 00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:37,320 Speaker 1: That's the one rule I think we know about the 937 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 1: Chiefs running game. He's gonna get the first opportunity. But 938 00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:42,320 Speaker 1: if he's not cooking. I talked to Eric b Enemy 939 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,600 Speaker 1: about an hour ago, and this was the question that 940 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:46,839 Speaker 1: I had. How do you guys figure out who's gonna 941 00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 1: be touching the football and it is truly hot hands. 942 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,960 Speaker 1: So you're gonna get c Eh. If he's not cooking, 943 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna go to Jerick McKinnon, Jet McKinnon, and then 944 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 1: Isaiah Pacheck. The might get an opportunity after that. That'll 945 00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 1: be the order in which they try to get guys going. 946 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:02,160 Speaker 1: They like Pocheck though, but they feel like he can 947 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:05,279 Speaker 1: still work on his patients and getting the block set 948 00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:07,879 Speaker 1: up as a rookie. These guys in Ceh and Jett 949 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:10,560 Speaker 1: McKinnon are a little bit better at that. McKinnon is 950 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 1: probably what is the best pass blocker on the team. 951 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,799 Speaker 1: So even though he's touching the football second, he has 952 00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 1: a grand opportunity to stay in the game if he 953 00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 1: is working well. Not great news for fantasy owners, right 954 00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 1: because you wish you could start one of these guys, 955 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:26,320 Speaker 1: like I wouldn't start any of these guys in fantasy 956 00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:29,440 Speaker 1: football because Eric the Enemy, the offensive coordinator, confirmed to 957 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 1: me today it is truly hot hand, which is why 958 00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 1: you saw McKinnon be the guy last game. So when 959 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:37,880 Speaker 1: the Bills come are at stadiums right behind me. When 960 00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 1: the Bills come to Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday. I mean, 961 00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:42,399 Speaker 1: it could be any of these guys. It could even 962 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:44,560 Speaker 1: be Isaiah Pacheco. If it ends up being Pacheco and 963 00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:47,359 Speaker 1: he's playing the best. If one of these backs has 964 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:50,520 Speaker 1: a good drive, they're gonna stick with them. Let's flip 965 00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 1: it over the Chiefs defense they have. It looks like 966 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:56,040 Speaker 1: there's an outside chance. Maybe you'll know more today after 967 00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:59,560 Speaker 1: today's practice, so they may start two rookie corners. Give 968 00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:01,520 Speaker 1: us an eye da of the strengths and weaknesses. I know, 969 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 1: I know that we know Chris Jones is playing extremely well, 970 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:09,400 Speaker 1: Frank Clark's been dragging around an injury, and George Karloftus 971 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 1: has kind of flashed at time or two at the 972 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 1: on the defensive front. Yeah, the front has looked better 973 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:17,600 Speaker 1: than I thought it might. We didn't know what to 974 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:20,799 Speaker 1: expect from Karloftus. When Melvin Ingram ended up not coming 975 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,479 Speaker 1: back to the Chiefs, you thought, Okay, maybe the Chiefs 976 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:25,479 Speaker 1: go and get somebody. They didn't get Carlos done Lap, 977 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:28,440 Speaker 1: but he is into his thirties at this point, and 978 00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 1: so you really needed Carloftus as the number thirty pick 979 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,000 Speaker 1: to hit, and he was able to get his first 980 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 1: sack last game, and I think he's looked the part 981 00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 1: pretty good, almost say, a day one pass rusher that 982 00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:42,240 Speaker 1: you could trust. And as you mentioned in the secondary 983 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:45,520 Speaker 1: right now, Trent McDuffie is technically still on IR but 984 00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:48,759 Speaker 1: he did practice yesterday, he is practicing today and so 985 00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 1: the Chiefs are optimistic to get him back. Rashad Fenton, 986 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,839 Speaker 1: who has been in there, hasn't practiced yet this week 987 00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 1: as he deals with the hamstring injury. So you're looking 988 00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 1: potentially at the Chiefs calling McDuffie back from my r 989 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,360 Speaker 1: on Saturday as they put turf warton Dire who tours 990 00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:04,960 Speaker 1: acl last game, and in the nickel it would be 991 00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:08,800 Speaker 1: Legarius Sneed, who's pretty good, pretty underrated player in the slot, 992 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 1: and then a seventh rounder in Watson on the outside, 993 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 1: and then the first rounder making his comeback also on 994 00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:17,640 Speaker 1: the outside of McDuffie. McDuffie looked really good, and the 995 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:20,719 Speaker 1: twenty snaps he had before the Arizona turf, which was 996 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:24,680 Speaker 1: not conditioned well enough, injured his hamstring. He straight up 997 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 1: pulled his hamstring because of the turf. Missed the last 998 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:30,600 Speaker 1: four games, and we'll see on him. I mean, this 999 00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 1: is a very important player for the Chiefs. It was 1000 00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:34,879 Speaker 1: their top pick in the NFL draft. As you guys know, well, 1001 00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:36,920 Speaker 1: they traded in front of the Bills to go and 1002 00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:40,040 Speaker 1: get them. I say in Kansas City, we maybe we're 1003 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:43,080 Speaker 1: not talking about it yet, but this McDuffie Elam comparison 1004 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:45,360 Speaker 1: is going to be a thing at some point, and 1005 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:47,760 Speaker 1: it might start actually on Sunday. As to which rookie 1006 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,040 Speaker 1: plays better. They were taken very close in the NFL Draft. 1007 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:52,760 Speaker 1: The pleasant surprise, as I mentioned, has been Jalen Watson, 1008 00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:55,200 Speaker 1: because the Chiefs did take a cornerback in the fourth 1009 00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 1: round in Joshua Williams, but they have liked Watson better 1010 00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:00,440 Speaker 1: because of the length and the speed that he provides. 1011 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:02,359 Speaker 1: And he's really looked the part. I mean he's got 1012 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,800 Speaker 1: he was you know, he's been got by Mike Evans 1013 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 1: and DeVante Adams. When you got a guy like Stefan Diggs, 1014 00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:09,880 Speaker 1: maybe those things are going to happen. But he's had 1015 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:12,239 Speaker 1: a short memory and he was the reason the Chiefs 1016 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:14,440 Speaker 1: were able to beat the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday night. 1017 00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:18,840 Speaker 1: Football took a ninety plush yard interception back for the touchdown, 1018 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,120 Speaker 1: and that's been the difference. The defense has looked pretty 1019 00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 1: consistent early, which is new for the Chiefs, and it's 1020 00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:27,680 Speaker 1: a good sign because to have it together going into 1021 00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:30,759 Speaker 1: this all important game, which we know could be the 1022 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:33,040 Speaker 1: difference between home field advantage in the playoffs and not. 1023 00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 1: You're gonna want your defense to click. But it is 1024 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 1: a little concerning going up against an all world quarterback 1025 00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:41,480 Speaker 1: like Josh Allen when you do have two rookies and 1026 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:44,040 Speaker 1: you know that he's going to be a cognizant of 1027 00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:46,680 Speaker 1: these guys on the field, you'll see him attacking the outside, 1028 00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:48,320 Speaker 1: I think a little bit more than going after that 1029 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:50,680 Speaker 1: veteran and sneaed in the inside. Yeah. And the last 1030 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 1: one here, the one thing where the defense has not 1031 00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:56,080 Speaker 1: shown up at least as far as the statistics say. 1032 00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:58,960 Speaker 1: He's in the red zone defensively. What's going on there? 1033 00:56:59,080 --> 00:57:02,399 Speaker 1: Why eight one percent success rate for their opponents? What's 1034 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 1: been missing there is have the coaches addressed at all? Well, 1035 00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:09,480 Speaker 1: not particularly, but I think what the issue has been 1036 00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:12,279 Speaker 1: is a lot of times these younger defensive backs are 1037 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 1: in these one on one situations and you can only 1038 00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:19,040 Speaker 1: learn by getting that experience. And until I think these 1039 00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:21,440 Speaker 1: guys garner that experience, you know they're going to be 1040 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 1: beat in the red zone. Last week was a little 1041 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:26,200 Speaker 1: bit of an aberration in the red zone, Josh Jacobs. 1042 00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, not in the red zone. In the run game, 1043 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs had at a really strong game, a career 1044 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 1: high in yardage. But generally speaking this year, the Chiefs 1045 00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 1: have been pretty good against the runs. So it's it's 1046 00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 1: the past game in the red zone that they could 1047 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:41,080 Speaker 1: be a little bit better. Stevespagnolo, we know likes to 1048 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:45,560 Speaker 1: dial up different looks and so again, largely the defense 1049 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:47,760 Speaker 1: has been good, and you're right, you're nitpicking there a 1050 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:49,120 Speaker 1: little bit. When it comes to the red zone. You 1051 00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:51,080 Speaker 1: need to be better in the red zone, especially against 1052 00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:52,720 Speaker 1: the team like the Buffalo Bills. You got to hold 1053 00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 1: them to a field goal. So they'll look to play 1054 00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 1: better in this game in particular. All right, thanks appreciate 1055 00:57:57,400 --> 00:58:00,400 Speaker 1: the time. Yeah, thank you guys. All Right, that's between 1056 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:03,000 Speaker 1: the editor and chief lead writer for SB Nations Arrowhead Pride. 1057 00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:05,960 Speaker 1: He's got to get to practice as practice is wrapping up, 1058 00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,120 Speaker 1: so he's gonna be conducting interviews with players. But as 1059 00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:10,880 Speaker 1: you heard, Rashad Fenton not practicing again today, with that 1060 00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 1: hamstring injury. There is a chance the Chiefs will be 1061 00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:16,520 Speaker 1: starting two rookies at corner, and that's only if they 1062 00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 1: lift Trent McDuffie off of injured reserve, where he's been 1063 00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 1: since Week one with a hamstring injury himself, So it 1064 00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 1: would be him on one side and their seventh round 1065 00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:28,960 Speaker 1: pick and rookie Jalen Watson, who some people might remember 1066 00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 1: had the long interception return for a touchdown against the 1067 00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:38,720 Speaker 1: Chargers in Week one. So yeah, we've been there. The 1068 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:41,000 Speaker 1: Bills know what it's like to start two rookie corners. Yeah, 1069 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:47,880 Speaker 1: this year, we'll see. He's right. I think they and 1070 00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:51,400 Speaker 1: from the way he spoke about it, they have a 1071 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:53,800 Speaker 1: higher opinion in their defense and maybe the people outside 1072 00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:56,520 Speaker 1: the region. A third against the run, and that's after 1073 00:58:56,560 --> 00:58:58,360 Speaker 1: giving up a ton of yards that Josh Jacobs on 1074 00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:02,000 Speaker 1: Monday night. Yeah, I know, and I'm yeah they are. 1075 00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 1: But Bill don't run it very much. That's like not 1076 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:10,080 Speaker 1: a good matchup for them. It's not you know, being 1077 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:13,840 Speaker 1: third against the run is it doesn't mean anything else? Yeah, 1078 00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:19,800 Speaker 1: who cares? Here's the thing though, there their schedule. You know, 1079 00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:23,640 Speaker 1: they started with the Cardinals and the Chargers, now the 1080 00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 1: Chargers holding them down and stopping their run. Okay, the 1081 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:33,080 Speaker 1: Colts without Jonathan Taylor, Okay, find the Buccaneers and the Raiders. 1082 00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:37,280 Speaker 1: The Raiders lumped them up in the run game, right, Um, 1083 00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 1: they can't keep all I'm saying from scoring, Like, yeah, 1084 00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:42,880 Speaker 1: all I'm saying is they're having trouble keeping teams off 1085 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 1: the board. Yeah. The way they win is by outscoring 1086 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,600 Speaker 1: their opponents. That's how they're winning games. The first their 1087 00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 1: first three games, they gave up twenty one, twenty four, 1088 00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 1: and twenty points. That's pretty good. Then the last two 1089 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,840 Speaker 1: they've given up thirty one and twenty nine. And I 1090 00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 1: think you'll you'll find as well when you go around 1091 00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,440 Speaker 1: and look at the at the rest of the league, 1092 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:05,640 Speaker 1: people are getting a handle on who you are now 1093 01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:07,520 Speaker 1: after the first three or four weeks of the season. 1094 01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:13,920 Speaker 1: They they're evaluating your people and themselves and you're finding 1095 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 1: out you know where strengths and weaknesses are now just 1096 01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 1: because you know what a team does well and what 1097 01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:20,920 Speaker 1: they don't do well is one thing. Being able to 1098 01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:24,840 Speaker 1: take advantage of it is completely something else. So there's 1099 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:26,440 Speaker 1: a little bit of that going on as well. But 1100 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:29,280 Speaker 1: this Chief's team and the defense. They're not gonna lay down. 1101 01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,200 Speaker 1: I mean, there's gonna be like they're gonna be a 1102 01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 1: good football team. They're a playoff team and you're gonna 1103 01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:35,040 Speaker 1: have to score points to beat them. That's all there 1104 01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:36,960 Speaker 1: is to it, because you're not going to be able 1105 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:40,120 Speaker 1: to shut these guys out at all. In fact, twenty 1106 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:44,320 Speaker 1: points is an enormous win. If you can keep this 1107 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:47,480 Speaker 1: team to twenty points or less, that's like shutting anybody 1108 01:00:47,520 --> 01:00:50,000 Speaker 1: else out. But that's what you got to score. That's 1109 01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 1: what the Colts did, and they won twenty to seventeen. 1110 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 1: That's what you gotta do. But their red zone defense 1111 01:00:56,040 --> 01:00:59,680 Speaker 1: is bad. It's really bad. They're thirty first in the league. Steve. 1112 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,520 Speaker 1: They can't keep anybody out of the end zone when 1113 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 1: when you get when they get down there, and I 1114 01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:07,760 Speaker 1: don't know how the Colts held them to seventeen points, 1115 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:10,280 Speaker 1: I really don't. I gotta go back and look at that. 1116 01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 1: But they've scored forty four, twenty seven, forty one, thirty. Yeah, 1117 01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:17,000 Speaker 1: and then you throw on the seventeen point or the 1118 01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:18,800 Speaker 1: Colts in the middle of it, and keep in mind 1119 01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:21,240 Speaker 1: that's why they're while they're feeling out all of their 1120 01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:24,600 Speaker 1: new pieces like Smith, Schuster and Valdez scanting like then 1121 01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 1: just drop these guys out of the sky and it's like, 1122 01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 1: let's go. I mean, they they've blended him in pretty 1123 01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 1: well while on the job, you know what I mean. 1124 01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:35,280 Speaker 1: I was kind of I think I said this earlier 1125 01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:36,560 Speaker 1: in the week. That's why I was hoping when the 1126 01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:38,600 Speaker 1: Bill schedule came out, the Bills would get the Chiefs 1127 01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:41,640 Speaker 1: early in the year before they you know, before all 1128 01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:43,959 Speaker 1: these new pieces found out. Okay, this is my role, 1129 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:46,760 Speaker 1: this is what I do in this offense. Let's go 1130 01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:49,960 Speaker 1: now here in week six, they're kind of there. Now, 1131 01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:52,520 Speaker 1: that's what Arizona was thinking before they hung forty four 1132 01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 1: on those jokers. As Arizona is Arizona, Tampa Bay getting 1133 01:01:57,200 --> 01:02:01,840 Speaker 1: forty one hung on them, they're good. Yeah really, oh, 1134 01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:05,200 Speaker 1: no question, and this this game is. But I just 1135 01:02:05,240 --> 01:02:07,960 Speaker 1: thought it was interesting he the way he spoke. They 1136 01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:11,640 Speaker 1: they think it sounds as though they think their defense 1137 01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:15,680 Speaker 1: is good enough. Um, well, it's good enough if you're 1138 01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:18,560 Speaker 1: scoring forty a game. Yeah, you know what I mean, 1139 01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:24,200 Speaker 1: maybe the rationale. All I'm saying is the Bills defense 1140 01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,240 Speaker 1: I think is better. Yeah, but I think also too, 1141 01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 1: the Chiefs defense has not gotten. They have one interception, 1142 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:33,520 Speaker 1: it's the long one for the touchdown. Right, the Bills 1143 01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:38,200 Speaker 1: have got eleven. That that's defense in the National Football 1144 01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 1: League at this current point in history. In my opinion, 1145 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:45,560 Speaker 1: it's about turnovers and sacks. This run and stopped the 1146 01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:52,800 Speaker 1: run is obsolete. Correct, It's turnovers and sacks. It's playmaking. Um, 1147 01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:59,480 Speaker 1: it's passes defense, that's it. It's playmaking. You gotta get turnovers, 1148 01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:04,000 Speaker 1: acts and defended passes and and stay away from you know, 1149 01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:08,560 Speaker 1: defensive pass interference. I mean, that's that's the story of 1150 01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:11,360 Speaker 1: playing defense in today's NFL. You can't you can't even 1151 01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:13,720 Speaker 1: tackle that. Somebody was you know, every time you like 1152 01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:16,320 Speaker 1: the game the other night, guys are running through tackles 1153 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:19,360 Speaker 1: and stuff all the time. People are going, nah, that's 1154 01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:21,560 Speaker 1: just like you know, our friend Bob and Hamburg came 1155 01:03:21,560 --> 01:03:23,480 Speaker 1: in there. Just you know that nobody knows how to 1156 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:27,080 Speaker 1: tackle that. Listen, you know how you tackle in the NFL. 1157 01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:33,880 Speaker 1: You can't. You know why, because there's nothing to grab. 1158 01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:37,120 Speaker 1: You can't go You can't say we wanted to grab 1159 01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:39,240 Speaker 1: a piece of the guy's shirt and pull it. No, 1160 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:43,040 Speaker 1: they're taped down. Yeah, there's no handle there unless you 1161 01:03:43,080 --> 01:03:45,760 Speaker 1: grab a leg and the three sizes too small, right, 1162 01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:49,720 Speaker 1: a leg, an arm. You can't grab their collar, which 1163 01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:51,919 Speaker 1: used to be perfect. You grab it and hang onto 1164 01:03:51,920 --> 01:03:53,600 Speaker 1: that and you could hold your grip and pull yourself 1165 01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 1: in and tackle them. But you've got to get your 1166 01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:58,680 Speaker 1: arms around them and pull them to the ground, or 1167 01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:00,760 Speaker 1: you've got to have an arm or a leg that 1168 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:03,960 Speaker 1: you can hug and hope for help. Yeah, because if 1169 01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:07,600 Speaker 1: you come in you can't. You come in low, they'll 1170 01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:09,760 Speaker 1: they'll jump over you. You go in high and you 1171 01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:13,240 Speaker 1: get called for you know, helmet to helmet, I mean 1172 01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:17,000 Speaker 1: you there's they're really limited how they can tackle. So 1173 01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:21,880 Speaker 1: the league, through this evolution, has now made it's it's 1174 01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:28,520 Speaker 1: about punching the ball out, getting interceptions, sacks, turnovers and 1175 01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:31,160 Speaker 1: passes defense, and that's it. That's another thing that the 1176 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,360 Speaker 1: Chiefs don't do is take the ball away. They have 1177 01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:37,200 Speaker 1: four takeaways this season, only one interception, which was the 1178 01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:40,680 Speaker 1: one we just mentioned against the Chargers in Week one 1179 01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:46,120 Speaker 1: interception returned for a touchdown. They have four takeaways. Their 1180 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:51,160 Speaker 1: defense is different. It's different. You think about the losses 1181 01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 1: the last few years. You know whether it's Tyranne Matthew 1182 01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:02,439 Speaker 1: Bashad Bryland to corner. They lost another corner last year 1183 01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:04,400 Speaker 1: in the off season that they had on their roster 1184 01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:08,920 Speaker 1: whose name is escaping me. But they've they've had losses 1185 01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:15,280 Speaker 1: in the defensive backfield and they're trying to restock the cupboard. 1186 01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:19,000 Speaker 1: They drafted three corners. I mean, they knew it was 1187 01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:22,480 Speaker 1: a problem. They drafted three corners last spring. Two of 1188 01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:27,560 Speaker 1: them might be starting on Sunday. So they're just hoping 1189 01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:30,080 Speaker 1: those guys get up to speed sooner rather than later 1190 01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:32,640 Speaker 1: and hope the offense can score enough to win some 1191 01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:36,640 Speaker 1: games while those guys kind of get their sea legs right. 1192 01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:39,560 Speaker 1: And that's that's where they're at right now, you know, 1193 01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:44,680 Speaker 1: I mean that's they Yeah, like you said, it's obvious 1194 01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:47,520 Speaker 1: how they see themselves with from their draft and where 1195 01:05:47,560 --> 01:05:50,840 Speaker 1: they're at. And we'll see they should be getting some 1196 01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:54,960 Speaker 1: return on that investment, right if they picked the right people. Yeah, 1197 01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:56,800 Speaker 1: let's go back to the phones at eight O three 1198 01:05:57,080 --> 01:06:01,000 Speaker 1: fifty fifty two five fifty, where we are asking you 1199 01:06:01,160 --> 01:06:04,439 Speaker 1: today what unit makes the play to win the game? 1200 01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:06,320 Speaker 1: Choices are there for you on the tweet sheet at 1201 01:06:06,320 --> 01:06:08,720 Speaker 1: one Bills Live. But we go to Tom on the 1202 01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:10,360 Speaker 1: West Side. Tom, what you got for us? You on 1203 01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:15,680 Speaker 1: one Bill's Life. Hey guys, thanks for spending my afternoon 1204 01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:20,080 Speaker 1: with me. I love you us. Okay, Tom and Steve, 1205 01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:27,200 Speaker 1: you're the perfect analyst. You analyze that perfectly, that last segment. Anyway, 1206 01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:30,880 Speaker 1: to answer your question, I will say offense because it's 1207 01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:34,240 Speaker 1: gonna come down to the last possession and it could 1208 01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:38,320 Speaker 1: be a victory formation by the Bills because we have 1209 01:06:38,440 --> 01:06:43,600 Speaker 1: the better defense. Okay, so let's go there, and then 1210 01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:48,360 Speaker 1: let's segue. I'm tired of the Bills bringing him players 1211 01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:52,400 Speaker 1: that are injury prone, and that's what concerns me about. 1212 01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:57,760 Speaker 1: Oh day as he's injury prone. Now after that, to 1213 01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:00,800 Speaker 1: add on the Bob, I used to play pop worn 1214 01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 1: or football just so I could go out and hit 1215 01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:08,920 Speaker 1: people and not get in trouble for it. I'm serious. 1216 01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:12,240 Speaker 1: I believe it was the only time you could do it. 1217 01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:15,080 Speaker 1: And now you're not allowed to hit people no more. 1218 01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:18,000 Speaker 1: I mean I had the water helmet back in the day. 1219 01:07:18,160 --> 01:07:21,760 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that was an upgrade. Yeah. I remember those 1220 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:24,680 Speaker 1: helmets weighed like forty pounds. They were so they were 1221 01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:30,440 Speaker 1: so full of water. Yeah yeah, and they pull them 1222 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,080 Speaker 1: up with her to fill in the air pockets, wherever 1223 01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:37,320 Speaker 1: the water woman. Yeah, I remember those days. I loved 1224 01:07:38,200 --> 01:07:41,960 Speaker 1: and Steve. I got almost got kicked out of a 1225 01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:44,680 Speaker 1: football game one time because I yelled at the ref 1226 01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:47,920 Speaker 1: they called me for a penalty when I was playing 1227 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:51,760 Speaker 1: defensive end on the other side of the field and 1228 01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:54,840 Speaker 1: I wasn't even in the play and they called my 1229 01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,720 Speaker 1: number and I went up and started yelling at him, 1230 01:07:57,720 --> 01:08:00,320 Speaker 1: and he said, yelling at me again, kicking out of 1231 01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:03,640 Speaker 1: the game. So I went over to the sidelines, told 1232 01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:07,200 Speaker 1: my couch coach, I'm out, took my jersey off, took 1233 01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:10,439 Speaker 1: my shoulder pans off, turned my jersey inside out, put 1234 01:08:10,440 --> 01:08:14,280 Speaker 1: it back on, sat down the bent. Then I got up. 1235 01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:17,719 Speaker 1: After I cooled down, I had a yoga moment whatever 1236 01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:20,679 Speaker 1: you want to call it, and I put my shoulder 1237 01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:23,800 Speaker 1: pan back on, turned my jersey right side out, put 1238 01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:26,600 Speaker 1: it back on. Told coach I'm ready to go in, 1239 01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:29,439 Speaker 1: and he goes, what are you talking about? I thought 1240 01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:32,000 Speaker 1: you got kicked out, and I go no, I took 1241 01:08:32,040 --> 01:08:38,200 Speaker 1: myself out. So Steve, you emulated me because you actually 1242 01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:42,000 Speaker 1: got kicked out. All right, Well, okay, that's a that 1243 01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:44,439 Speaker 1: was thanks time. I appreciate it was a story. It's 1244 01:08:44,479 --> 01:08:47,920 Speaker 1: a nice story, and they're a yoga moment. You ever 1245 01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:51,519 Speaker 1: have one of those things? Absolutely, my last game in 1246 01:08:51,640 --> 01:08:54,000 Speaker 1: my career, I had a yoga yoga moment. Yeah, but 1247 01:08:54,120 --> 01:08:58,559 Speaker 1: a sandwich Uh yeah. Um, well, well there's a lot 1248 01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:01,720 Speaker 1: in there, Tom, I don't know where to begin appreciate it. Yeah, 1249 01:09:01,760 --> 01:09:04,080 Speaker 1: he says, maybe the Bills will end this game within 1250 01:09:04,200 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 1: victory formation. We'll see, Um, yeah, it'll be quite that. 1251 01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:11,640 Speaker 1: A lot of people think it's gonna come down to 1252 01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:13,559 Speaker 1: who has the ball last, and that's the team that's 1253 01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:15,800 Speaker 1: gonna win the game. Well, that's I understand why. That's 1254 01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:21,559 Speaker 1: how it last year. That's that's fantasy. It is. Um, 1255 01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:24,840 Speaker 1: this game is gonna be there's gonna be a huge 1256 01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:28,439 Speaker 1: swings in Momentum. I think you can count on both 1257 01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:33,400 Speaker 1: teams having the lead at some point. Um, but there's 1258 01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:37,320 Speaker 1: a lot and no lead is that's either that is 1259 01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 1: no no lead is safe. As That's the thing, and 1260 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:42,360 Speaker 1: that's why when you get into a game like this, 1261 01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:44,559 Speaker 1: when when one team or the other, particularly in this 1262 01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:47,160 Speaker 1: case Kansas City and Buffalo too with given their team 1263 01:09:47,360 --> 01:09:51,360 Speaker 1: their their game last week against the Steelers, you think, wow, 1264 01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 1: that can score from anywhere no lead is safe, which 1265 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:56,240 Speaker 1: is why we got to keep our foot on the gas, 1266 01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:59,000 Speaker 1: which is why fantasy owners and why why fans and 1267 01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 1: betters that they're like, wow, we can't get enough of this. 1268 01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 1: Let's go, ye, all gas, no breaks, take every chance 1269 01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:08,760 Speaker 1: you can, let's go. And both defenses seem a little 1270 01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:11,400 Speaker 1: hobbled in the back end, which gives you some more 1271 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:13,920 Speaker 1: confidence that the team's going to have success. I mean, 1272 01:10:13,920 --> 01:10:19,320 Speaker 1: it's just everything points to this being a ninety nine 1273 01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:25,200 Speaker 1: to one hundred game. Yeah, it seems a little fat, 1274 01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:29,000 Speaker 1: my bill fat. You know. Let's go to the tweet 1275 01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:31,680 Speaker 1: sheet to see what you think which unit makes a 1276 01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:34,160 Speaker 1: play to win the game. Tweet sheet brought to you 1277 01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:37,439 Speaker 1: by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official moving equipment company of 1278 01:10:37,479 --> 01:10:40,040 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills, and Steve says, the answer has got 1279 01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:42,920 Speaker 1: to be the Bills defense. Both offenses are incredibly good. 1280 01:10:43,280 --> 01:10:46,400 Speaker 1: The Bills defense is what separates these two teams this year, 1281 01:10:46,800 --> 01:10:48,400 Speaker 1: and they will have to make more plays in the 1282 01:10:48,439 --> 01:10:51,439 Speaker 1: Chiefs defense to show why the Bills are the Super 1283 01:10:51,479 --> 01:10:56,040 Speaker 1: Bowl favorites. I agree. I think the Bills defense is 1284 01:10:56,439 --> 01:10:58,559 Speaker 1: the unit that is far and away better than its 1285 01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 1: counterpart in this game. I did find it interesting Steve 1286 01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:05,960 Speaker 1: that the Chiefs are last in the league in punt coverage. 1287 01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:09,680 Speaker 1: That was interesting to me. Yeah, you're right though, and 1288 01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:16,000 Speaker 1: they don't get turnovers. They've got you know, four total, yeah, 1289 01:11:16,120 --> 01:11:19,040 Speaker 1: you know, interceptions, fumble they got four total. That's it, 1290 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:24,080 Speaker 1: turnovers and there's zero zero net differential. Yeah. The reason, 1291 01:11:24,680 --> 01:11:26,360 Speaker 1: one of the big reasons they lost to the Colts 1292 01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:28,880 Speaker 1: a few weeks ago is because the Chiefs had two turnovers. 1293 01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:33,320 Speaker 1: They fumbled a punt and then they I guess they 1294 01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:36,559 Speaker 1: tried some trick special teams play and it didn't work. 1295 01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:39,840 Speaker 1: And they also missed a field goal because they've had 1296 01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:42,760 Speaker 1: other guys in because Butcker has been injured. Should have 1297 01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:45,200 Speaker 1: Pete if Butcker's going to be back this week, just 1298 01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:47,599 Speaker 1: started practice. Yeah. The Bills. The Bills are plus two 1299 01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:50,400 Speaker 1: in the turnover margin because they've turned it over nine 1300 01:11:50,439 --> 01:11:53,840 Speaker 1: times and they've gotten eleven turnovers. So that's one of 1301 01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:57,360 Speaker 1: the things I think that has hamstrung the Bills offense 1302 01:11:57,640 --> 01:12:02,599 Speaker 1: is their turnovers. They've got four interceptions which are on Josh, 1303 01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:08,559 Speaker 1: but they have five fumbles lost and can't do it. 1304 01:12:09,160 --> 01:12:13,400 Speaker 1: That's and I don't know why. Extra possessions for the 1305 01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:16,439 Speaker 1: Chiefs offense. It just can't have it. You can't do that. 1306 01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:21,200 Speaker 1: You can't fumble the football. That's why Sean McDermott is 1307 01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:26,639 Speaker 1: handles fumbles the way he does. And five fumbles, let 1308 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:28,280 Speaker 1: me just look real quick, one of the I think 1309 01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:30,760 Speaker 1: that leads the league. Yeah, that leads the league. They're 1310 01:12:30,760 --> 01:12:36,400 Speaker 1: tied number on with lost fumbles with ten. Yeah, they've 1311 01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:42,040 Speaker 1: got Tampa Bay and the Bills have five. Two others Jacksonville, 1312 01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:48,080 Speaker 1: Seattle have four and San Francisco has four along with Chicago. 1313 01:12:48,600 --> 01:12:52,160 Speaker 1: I mean, that's five lost fumbles. You're leading the league. 1314 01:12:55,080 --> 01:12:57,719 Speaker 1: That's a that's a crusher. Can't have it. It's a crusher. 1315 01:12:58,240 --> 01:13:01,639 Speaker 1: That's why. I mean. Yeahs, you get the Chiefs upon 1316 01:13:01,760 --> 01:13:04,160 Speaker 1: three times in this game, you're averaging a loss, probably 1317 01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:06,200 Speaker 1: win if your offense is doing what they're supposed to do. 1318 01:13:06,360 --> 01:13:09,360 Speaker 1: It's a lost fumble of game. Yeah, it's not good. 1319 01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:15,360 Speaker 1: You are right. Gotta fix it, got to fix it, 1320 01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:17,760 Speaker 1: all right. We have to take a break here. When 1321 01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:20,519 Speaker 1: we come back, more of your thoughts on the tweet sheet. 1322 01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:22,360 Speaker 1: We'll also take some more phone calls. Got an open 1323 01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:24,280 Speaker 1: line for you at eight oh three five fifty one 1324 01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:27,360 Speaker 1: eight eight five fifty two, five fifty Which unit makes 1325 01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:29,680 Speaker 1: a play to win the game. We're back in a 1326 01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:31,880 Speaker 1: moment here on one Bill's Live, presented by Collot of Health. 1327 01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:45,800 Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. He's at the twenty, the ten, 1328 01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:51,880 Speaker 1: the five touchdowns, Snapdragon Apples this Bill season. Enter your 1329 01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:55,519 Speaker 1: local wegments to experience the epic flavor and monster crunch 1330 01:13:56,000 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 1: of snap Dragon Apples, the official apples of your Buffalo Bills. 1331 01:14:01,360 --> 01:14:07,439 Speaker 1: Snap into one that's somebody else. I think we got 1332 01:14:07,520 --> 01:14:10,080 Speaker 1: to get back to the tweet sheet here which unit 1333 01:14:10,280 --> 01:14:15,800 Speaker 1: makes the play to win the game? And we have 1334 01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:19,360 Speaker 1: some tweets here that we're gonna get to now from Nick. 1335 01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:23,280 Speaker 1: Our defense just needs to force a handful of punts, 1336 01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:26,280 Speaker 1: and I think we can outscore them. Everyone thinks of 1337 01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:29,720 Speaker 1: Bills Chiefs games is shootouts. But Week five last year, 1338 01:14:29,760 --> 01:14:32,519 Speaker 1: our defense held them to twenty. If we keep them 1339 01:14:32,600 --> 01:14:36,160 Speaker 1: under twenty five points this time, I like our chances. 1340 01:14:36,320 --> 01:14:38,559 Speaker 1: My over under on punt Steve was three. I think 1341 01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:42,440 Speaker 1: if they can get the Chiefs to punt three times 1342 01:14:42,439 --> 01:14:45,160 Speaker 1: and the Bills offense does what we expect them to do, 1343 01:14:46,479 --> 01:14:49,680 Speaker 1: I think they win the game. You know, once you 1344 01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:52,439 Speaker 1: start turning it over or you can't turn it punting 1345 01:14:52,439 --> 01:14:55,200 Speaker 1: it yourself. You're giving them extra possessions and that's where 1346 01:14:55,240 --> 01:14:59,920 Speaker 1: problems arise. Yeah, the Bills offense needs to score some 1347 01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:01,840 Speaker 1: a lot of points, and they need to be better 1348 01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:05,559 Speaker 1: in the red zone defensively, they were better last week, 1349 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:08,920 Speaker 1: so Steelers went over in the red zone. We'll see 1350 01:15:09,760 --> 01:15:13,519 Speaker 1: if it's but yeah, I mean that's what this game 1351 01:15:13,520 --> 01:15:16,200 Speaker 1: comes down to. You know, their offense is prolific, just 1352 01:15:16,280 --> 01:15:20,240 Speaker 1: like yours is. So whichever offense stumbles or can be 1353 01:15:20,320 --> 01:15:23,599 Speaker 1: made to stumble by the opposing defense wins. This game's 1354 01:15:23,640 --> 01:15:27,320 Speaker 1: gonna be in the thirties, if not in the forties, 1355 01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:31,080 Speaker 1: point on the scoreboard for one of these two teams, 1356 01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:35,160 Speaker 1: if not both. You gotta find a way to give 1357 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:39,760 Speaker 1: your offense more chances. Yeah. Jeremy on the tweet sheet says, 1358 01:15:39,800 --> 01:15:41,479 Speaker 1: I think this one comes down to the wire with 1359 01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:43,320 Speaker 1: any luck. We have the ball last and put it 1360 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:48,240 Speaker 1: away with zero on the clock. I think I know 1361 01:15:48,280 --> 01:15:52,280 Speaker 1: why I put zero there. Yeah, not twelve recent memory, 1362 01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:54,719 Speaker 1: even twelve would be better than it was. Well. Yeah, 1363 01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:58,160 Speaker 1: Jack on the tweet sheet says, I think we have 1364 01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:01,920 Speaker 1: to attack and be aggressive on all fronts. While I 1365 01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:06,760 Speaker 1: hope Von ed Groot and company absolutely pummel fifteen. We 1366 01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:10,200 Speaker 1: know Josh and his wide receivers are our path to 1367 01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:12,880 Speaker 1: the w We have to score, and have to score 1368 01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:15,120 Speaker 1: a lot, plus stay on the field to keep fifteen 1369 01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:18,040 Speaker 1: sitting on his rear and eating sunflower seats? Where do 1370 01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:22,360 Speaker 1: you where's your stance right now? Brownie? On the thought 1371 01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:24,519 Speaker 1: that this is the game, these are the games we've 1372 01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:27,920 Speaker 1: hired or got von Miller. Four. This is the number 1373 01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:30,439 Speaker 1: one reason you signed von Miller to beat the Chiefs 1374 01:16:30,439 --> 01:16:32,479 Speaker 1: and close out a game when you're ahead on the scoreboard. 1375 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:35,760 Speaker 1: He is the number one reason this game is the 1376 01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:38,200 Speaker 1: number one reason this team is the number one reason 1377 01:16:38,640 --> 01:16:42,920 Speaker 1: they swung big to sign von Miller. What does Brandon 1378 01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:45,839 Speaker 1: Bean say at the end of every season, every post, 1379 01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:50,479 Speaker 1: every end of season wrap up press conference. He said 1380 01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:53,160 Speaker 1: it the last three years in a row. The last 1381 01:16:53,200 --> 01:16:57,200 Speaker 1: game you play in often tells you what you're still 1382 01:16:57,200 --> 01:16:59,800 Speaker 1: missing as a football team. And what were they missing 1383 01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:01,920 Speaker 1: as a football team that helped cost them the game? 1384 01:17:01,960 --> 01:17:05,400 Speaker 1: The inability to get to Patrick Mahomes at the end 1385 01:17:05,439 --> 01:17:08,000 Speaker 1: of that football game or for the majority of that game, 1386 01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:12,800 Speaker 1: quite frankly, could not put heat enough heat on the 1387 01:17:12,880 --> 01:17:17,880 Speaker 1: quarterback to end drives, and it put an undue amount 1388 01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:19,920 Speaker 1: of pressure on the secondary in the back seven of 1389 01:17:19,960 --> 01:17:25,280 Speaker 1: Buffalo's defense, and it was a problem and went a 1390 01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:28,160 Speaker 1: long way into why they lost that game. Granted, the 1391 01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:31,519 Speaker 1: defense was exhausted at that point, as was the Chiefs defense, 1392 01:17:31,560 --> 01:17:34,479 Speaker 1: but you get what I'm saying. But Brandon Bean says 1393 01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:36,400 Speaker 1: it at the end of every year in the season 1394 01:17:36,400 --> 01:17:39,400 Speaker 1: wrap up press comments, your last game played usually shows 1395 01:17:39,439 --> 01:17:44,919 Speaker 1: you what your team is still missing, and in their estimation, 1396 01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:50,240 Speaker 1: their team was still missing a proven alpha male pass rusher. 1397 01:17:50,720 --> 01:17:54,479 Speaker 1: They have that guy now, so hopefully he does make 1398 01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:58,200 Speaker 1: a difference On Sunday. Well, I'm glad, I asked, Yeah, 1399 01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:00,439 Speaker 1: why do you feel differently or do you think there 1400 01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:02,880 Speaker 1: was another reason they added von Or No. I think 1401 01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:07,559 Speaker 1: Chiefs it's premium reason why he's here. Generally speaking, good 1402 01:18:07,560 --> 01:18:11,719 Speaker 1: players make you better. Great players help other guys become great. 1403 01:18:13,160 --> 01:18:16,680 Speaker 1: Guys like Vaughan elevate those around them. And you can 1404 01:18:16,720 --> 01:18:19,760 Speaker 1: look directly across the line, across at the other end 1405 01:18:19,800 --> 01:18:21,920 Speaker 1: of the line at Greg Rousseau and say, yeah, that's 1406 01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:24,439 Speaker 1: a difference. It's been in his early part of this career, 1407 01:18:25,160 --> 01:18:28,360 Speaker 1: Ed Oliver will say the same thing. Vaughan has mentored 1408 01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:33,240 Speaker 1: those guys from the point where as a proven veteran, 1409 01:18:33,360 --> 01:18:38,839 Speaker 1: all time great pass rusher, leader, super Bowl champion, multiple 1410 01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:43,040 Speaker 1: Super Bowl champion guy has started talking to those guys, 1411 01:18:43,040 --> 01:18:44,880 Speaker 1: getting in their rear and saying, this is how it's done, 1412 01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:48,040 Speaker 1: this is the mindset you have to have. That kind 1413 01:18:48,040 --> 01:18:50,800 Speaker 1: of guy elevates those around him. So certainly, while von 1414 01:18:50,880 --> 01:18:54,080 Speaker 1: may be the guy that goes in and finishes the 1415 01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:57,200 Speaker 1: game with a sack and the dying moments of a 1416 01:18:57,200 --> 01:19:01,280 Speaker 1: game still in doubt, I think it's just as likely 1417 01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:03,240 Speaker 1: that one of the guys he's looking at will do 1418 01:19:03,320 --> 01:19:06,679 Speaker 1: the exact same thing, or that he'll make a difference 1419 01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:08,240 Speaker 1: throughout the game in such a way as to be 1420 01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:11,759 Speaker 1: the difference without ever making a play of that nature. 1421 01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:17,120 Speaker 1: So you're right. I think guys like von Miller make 1422 01:19:17,200 --> 01:19:20,599 Speaker 1: you better because he's a great player. But I think, 1423 01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:26,080 Speaker 1: more importantly, and I'll reiterate it again, great players make 1424 01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:31,200 Speaker 1: others around them great better. They elevate the people around them. 1425 01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:33,800 Speaker 1: That's why that's more the reason you got von Miller 1426 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:36,439 Speaker 1: in my opinion, Although although I'll take the play at 1427 01:19:36,439 --> 01:19:37,880 Speaker 1: the end of the game to win one thing I 1428 01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:40,880 Speaker 1: want to talk to you about further though, is with 1429 01:19:40,960 --> 01:19:45,960 Speaker 1: respect to the Chiefs defense. Last week, we see the 1430 01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:49,599 Speaker 1: Bills able to get some explosives, a lot of short drives. 1431 01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:52,040 Speaker 1: They had a ten second drive, a thirty three second drive, 1432 01:19:52,080 --> 01:19:53,880 Speaker 1: a minute and five second drive, a two minute and 1433 01:19:53,880 --> 01:19:58,920 Speaker 1: thirty seven second drive, all resulting in touchdowns because they 1434 01:19:58,960 --> 01:20:01,320 Speaker 1: took advantage of an injury world secondary and a team 1435 01:20:01,320 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 1: that really didn't have a pass rush. The Chiefs have 1436 01:20:03,840 --> 01:20:05,960 Speaker 1: a pass rush the middle of the pack, but they 1437 01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:07,680 Speaker 1: have a pass rush and they have, you know, a 1438 01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:13,559 Speaker 1: premium player in Chris Jones as we know, but with 1439 01:20:13,600 --> 01:20:19,160 Speaker 1: the with the potential of there being two rookie corners, 1440 01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:25,960 Speaker 1: I'm leaning towards this Chief's defense playing similarly to the 1441 01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:28,800 Speaker 1: way we saw the Titans try to play them and 1442 01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:32,600 Speaker 1: the Dolphins try to play them, which was now the 1443 01:20:32,640 --> 01:20:34,960 Speaker 1: Dolphins did play some man coverage, but not a lot 1444 01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:39,519 Speaker 1: cover two shell, keep it all in front of them, 1445 01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:43,519 Speaker 1: don't give up big plays, force them to matriculate the 1446 01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:46,280 Speaker 1: ball down the field. With two rookie corners, can't you 1447 01:20:46,320 --> 01:20:49,800 Speaker 1: see them turning to that? Maybe more, I'm not exclusively, 1448 01:20:49,840 --> 01:20:53,160 Speaker 1: but more often than not. Yeah, maybe especially after what 1449 01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:54,800 Speaker 1: the Bills just put on tape last week. You know 1450 01:20:54,800 --> 01:20:57,479 Speaker 1: what I mean, like an overcorrection that happens. I mean, 1451 01:20:57,560 --> 01:21:01,920 Speaker 1: look for Isaah McKenzie or Clear Shakir to have big 1452 01:21:01,960 --> 01:21:04,559 Speaker 1: game in the slot, or you know, James Cook, Devin 1453 01:21:04,640 --> 01:21:06,840 Speaker 1: Singletary out of the backfield. I mean, you're gonna zone 1454 01:21:06,840 --> 01:21:08,519 Speaker 1: them to death. You're gonna go out hook up in 1455 01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:12,160 Speaker 1: the dead areas and Josh he's gonna throw darts. Um. 1456 01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:16,280 Speaker 1: You know, the thing that you'd like to see from 1457 01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:19,800 Speaker 1: this Bill's team is obviously cutting down on the turnovers, 1458 01:21:19,800 --> 01:21:23,519 Speaker 1: but also some run after catch. One of the things 1459 01:21:23,520 --> 01:21:25,680 Speaker 1: that crushes you with Kansas City, you can look back 1460 01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:28,760 Speaker 1: to they no more than no further than the two 1461 01:21:28,880 --> 01:21:32,479 Speaker 1: thirteen second game in Kansas City that the two guys 1462 01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:36,920 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey and Tyreek Hill short catch, long run. They 1463 01:21:36,960 --> 01:21:40,920 Speaker 1: did it consistently. They do it consistently. Even the even 1464 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:44,160 Speaker 1: one of the four yard touchdowns Kelsey had against the 1465 01:21:44,240 --> 01:21:51,760 Speaker 1: Raiders last Monday night was a catch and he ran 1466 01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:54,040 Speaker 1: all the way across the field to get in. You 1467 01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:57,840 Speaker 1: gotta get him on the ground. So the Bills, while 1468 01:21:58,040 --> 01:22:01,080 Speaker 1: if a team zones them off and keeps a lid 1469 01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:06,080 Speaker 1: on the play. That's not that should not be good enough. 1470 01:22:07,720 --> 01:22:12,160 Speaker 1: That should not be good enough to to beat you, 1471 01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:14,080 Speaker 1: because you should have the weapons that are going to 1472 01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:16,479 Speaker 1: be able to counteract that. You got the slot guys, 1473 01:22:16,479 --> 01:22:18,439 Speaker 1: and you got Josh with the arm and the ability 1474 01:22:18,479 --> 01:22:20,000 Speaker 1: to do it. Now, one thing it does if they're 1475 01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:22,040 Speaker 1: in zone, Josh is not going to run out of 1476 01:22:22,080 --> 01:22:24,800 Speaker 1: the pocket down the field like he does against man 1477 01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:27,599 Speaker 1: to man. He's gonna have guys facing him and seeing 1478 01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:30,719 Speaker 1: him run, so they'll come up fast. So his runs 1479 01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:33,120 Speaker 1: are gonna be like eight yards at most. And that's 1480 01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:35,360 Speaker 1: the one thing that the Chiefs have said they believe 1481 01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:37,880 Speaker 1: while they did lose him in port and veteran players 1482 01:22:37,880 --> 01:22:44,439 Speaker 1: like a Tyranne Matthew cornerback that started for them, char 1483 01:22:44,600 --> 01:22:46,960 Speaker 1: Various Ward, that's the corner they lost from last year. 1484 01:22:47,479 --> 01:22:50,080 Speaker 1: The name just came to me. While they've lost guys 1485 01:22:50,120 --> 01:22:52,800 Speaker 1: like that in the secondary, they do feel on the 1486 01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:56,200 Speaker 1: whole they are a faster defense. We saw Daniel Sorenson 1487 01:22:56,240 --> 01:22:59,599 Speaker 1: getting undressed by the Bills receiving targets last year, including 1488 01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:04,280 Speaker 1: Dawson Knox. They feel they're a faster defense, and I 1489 01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:08,200 Speaker 1: wonder where we see that most when we see them 1490 01:23:08,200 --> 01:23:11,519 Speaker 1: play on Sunday, Like, is there a linebacker group fast 1491 01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:13,360 Speaker 1: that they're gonna be able to run down Josh. I 1492 01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:16,559 Speaker 1: don't know if he decides to take off and run 1493 01:23:16,680 --> 01:23:20,800 Speaker 1: or is it their secondary that's quicker faster. We'll have 1494 01:23:20,840 --> 01:23:22,599 Speaker 1: to wait and see. I'm going to try to watch 1495 01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:25,800 Speaker 1: them tape tonight and tomorrow and get a better handle 1496 01:23:25,840 --> 01:23:30,120 Speaker 1: on that. But if they're faster, it doesn't necessarily mean 1497 01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:33,360 Speaker 1: they're better, especially if they're more inexperienced, which I think 1498 01:23:33,400 --> 01:23:35,720 Speaker 1: we can say they are, particularly on the back end. 1499 01:23:36,320 --> 01:23:39,519 Speaker 1: So to me, that means points for Buffalo as I 1500 01:23:39,560 --> 01:23:42,959 Speaker 1: see it, Locks on the tweet sheet says, our defense 1501 01:23:43,040 --> 01:23:45,720 Speaker 1: has been playing unstoppable so far this season, and I 1502 01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:51,679 Speaker 1: feel it's not getting enough credit. Locks is a little perturbed. Yeah, 1503 01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:55,480 Speaker 1: defense has been really good, and it's been supremely shorthanded 1504 01:23:56,040 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 1: through the first five games of the season and they've 1505 01:23:58,080 --> 01:24:03,200 Speaker 1: been playing damn good anyway. Yeah, uh, Damar Hamlin, Juquan Johnson, 1506 01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:05,800 Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer when he's been in he does not forget. 1507 01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:10,760 Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer is leading the league in Yeah, um, he 1508 01:24:10,920 --> 01:24:14,719 Speaker 1: sat down for two games. He's leading, So that would 1509 01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:16,559 Speaker 1: be great to have him come in and pick up 1510 01:24:16,600 --> 01:24:21,560 Speaker 1: where he left off. And with the play of Christian Benford, 1511 01:24:21,880 --> 01:24:28,280 Speaker 1: Kayer Elam and Dane Jackson obviously, and he almost you'd 1512 01:24:28,280 --> 01:24:32,400 Speaker 1: take for granted, um Tarn Johnson. I mean, we just 1513 01:24:32,400 --> 01:24:34,880 Speaker 1: take him for granted. We'd like Glosso the guy can 1514 01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:39,400 Speaker 1: the guys all pro. He's an all pro slot corner. 1515 01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:42,760 Speaker 1: He's as good as there is. And then you got 1516 01:24:42,800 --> 01:24:45,719 Speaker 1: Milano playing out of his mind and Termaine Edmonds playing 1517 01:24:45,760 --> 01:24:48,400 Speaker 1: the best football some Bills fans have ever seen him play. 1518 01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:50,479 Speaker 1: It'd be great to see if he can get back 1519 01:24:50,479 --> 01:24:52,280 Speaker 1: in the lineup this week, that would be nice. And 1520 01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:56,040 Speaker 1: so all those injuries and all those different guys getting 1521 01:24:56,120 --> 01:24:59,639 Speaker 1: rotated through in the secondary, along with the problems they've 1522 01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:01,920 Speaker 1: had up front, it'll probably continue this week a little 1523 01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:03,880 Speaker 1: bit with Jordan Phillips not being one hundred percent. I 1524 01:25:03,920 --> 01:25:08,200 Speaker 1: don't know if he'll go or not. We'll see. Yeah, 1525 01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:10,639 Speaker 1: they're the defense hasn't gotten enough credit for how well 1526 01:25:10,640 --> 01:25:13,240 Speaker 1: has played. Leslie Fraser's done a great job coordinating them. 1527 01:25:14,200 --> 01:25:18,720 Speaker 1: They've gotten great plays, they lead their eleven, they lead 1528 01:25:18,760 --> 01:25:22,479 Speaker 1: the league into interceptions. I mean, they're just playing really well. 1529 01:25:22,760 --> 01:25:27,559 Speaker 1: And like the little speech I just gave. It's about turnovers, sacks, 1530 01:25:28,400 --> 01:25:32,320 Speaker 1: and big plays, and they've done really well at those. 1531 01:25:33,280 --> 01:25:35,960 Speaker 1: Last one here from Ronnie. The two offenses can put 1532 01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:38,160 Speaker 1: up points, but I don't see the Chiefs defense stopping 1533 01:25:38,160 --> 01:25:40,519 Speaker 1: the Bills. R D will be the difference, getting a 1534 01:25:40,560 --> 01:25:42,519 Speaker 1: couple of extra stops to allow our offense to pull 1535 01:25:42,560 --> 01:25:46,160 Speaker 1: ahead and put all the pressure on the Chiefs offense. Yeah, 1536 01:25:46,160 --> 01:25:48,320 Speaker 1: that's where I'm coming from. I'm right there with Ronnie. 1537 01:25:48,360 --> 01:25:52,320 Speaker 1: Just force them to punt like three times, and if 1538 01:25:52,360 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 1: your offense is doing what it should be doing against 1539 01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:57,920 Speaker 1: this Chiefs defense, you win the football game. Yeah, I'm 1540 01:25:58,600 --> 01:26:00,920 Speaker 1: get him to punt. Yeah, I mean that's what you're 1541 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:04,479 Speaker 1: talking about. You're talking about Razor's edge here. I mean, 1542 01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:06,360 Speaker 1: this is two teams. Think about what happened that the 1543 01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:08,120 Speaker 1: last time these two teams played, and that when you 1544 01:26:09,000 --> 01:26:10,599 Speaker 1: and I think as Bills fans, and I think if 1545 01:26:10,600 --> 01:26:12,280 Speaker 1: you're a Chiefs fans, you do the same for the Bills. 1546 01:26:12,280 --> 01:26:15,240 Speaker 1: I think Bills fans give the Chiefs offense a lot 1547 01:26:15,240 --> 01:26:17,639 Speaker 1: of credit. They're hard to not keep up, they're hard 1548 01:26:17,680 --> 01:26:19,519 Speaker 1: to keep off the scoreboard. You kind of think, figure 1549 01:26:19,560 --> 01:26:23,439 Speaker 1: they get four touchdowns or five touchdowns right three and 1550 01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:26,280 Speaker 1: one half two and the other vice versa. That's hard, 1551 01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:29,080 Speaker 1: you know, so you kind of give that up. And 1552 01:26:29,360 --> 01:26:31,240 Speaker 1: Chiefs fans are looking at Josh Allen. The Bills are 1553 01:26:31,240 --> 01:26:33,800 Speaker 1: going you know how you're gonna keep you got, They're 1554 01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:36,280 Speaker 1: gonna get three touchdowns one half and two, then you 1555 01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:40,280 Speaker 1: know they're gonna score five touchdowns. You're talking about like 1556 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:43,760 Speaker 1: and we've seen it, We've said it and seen it. 1557 01:26:43,960 --> 01:26:46,640 Speaker 1: You're talking about like three plays during the game that 1558 01:26:46,800 --> 01:26:49,960 Speaker 1: tilt the balance that give one team a little momentum 1559 01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:53,640 Speaker 1: or save one team from an obvious scoring opportunity, like 1560 01:26:53,640 --> 01:26:56,439 Speaker 1: a fumble in the pocket when you're in field goal 1561 01:26:56,520 --> 01:27:00,960 Speaker 1: range already on an early down and you you save 1562 01:27:01,040 --> 01:27:04,639 Speaker 1: yourself that way from automatic points for your for your opponent. 1563 01:27:05,320 --> 01:27:10,439 Speaker 1: It's gonna take a handful of those both directions to 1564 01:27:10,560 --> 01:27:14,760 Speaker 1: decide this game. And wherever that balance falls, that's when 1565 01:27:14,880 --> 01:27:17,320 Speaker 1: that's the offense that doesn't get as many opportunities as 1566 01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:22,200 Speaker 1: the other guys do. Yeah, it's tight margin. You really 1567 01:27:22,240 --> 01:27:24,920 Speaker 1: feel this is you really feel this is gonna be 1568 01:27:25,120 --> 01:27:27,840 Speaker 1: a razor's having at what two and a half, it's 1569 01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:30,880 Speaker 1: a razor's edge game. To me, it's a pick them game. 1570 01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:33,000 Speaker 1: All right, break time for us, Steve and I will 1571 01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:35,640 Speaker 1: wrap it up with some numbers that we wanted to 1572 01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:41,080 Speaker 1: throw your way to. Courtesy of Aaron Shots from Football Outsiders, 1573 01:27:41,160 --> 01:27:44,760 Speaker 1: got some really interesting numbers on what a win would 1574 01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:47,559 Speaker 1: mean for the Bills chances the rest of the way, 1575 01:27:47,640 --> 01:27:54,880 Speaker 1: as well as the Chiefs when we come back. All right, So, Steve, 1576 01:27:54,960 --> 01:28:00,600 Speaker 1: courtesy of Aaron Shots from Football Outsiders, what Sunday means 1577 01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:03,759 Speaker 1: to the Bills and the Chiefs in this game? Okay, 1578 01:28:03,800 --> 01:28:06,280 Speaker 1: because we've talked about home field advantage in the playoffs, 1579 01:28:06,360 --> 01:28:10,200 Speaker 1: this then the other they've run the numbers. You're gonna 1580 01:28:10,200 --> 01:28:16,000 Speaker 1: love this one. So, if the Bills win, the chances 1581 01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:18,599 Speaker 1: of them being the number one seed in the AFC 1582 01:28:19,160 --> 01:28:22,760 Speaker 1: is sixty eight percent. For the Chiefs it would be 1583 01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:26,479 Speaker 1: down to six percent. Meanwhile, if the Chiefs win, their 1584 01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:29,080 Speaker 1: chances of being the number one seed improved to thirty 1585 01:28:29,080 --> 01:28:33,040 Speaker 1: five percent. The Bills would sit at thirty percent. That's 1586 01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:36,000 Speaker 1: an interesting swing there. And then as far as winning 1587 01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:38,160 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, if Buffalo wins, they would have a 1588 01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:40,400 Speaker 1: twenty eight percent chance to win the Super Bowl, Kansas 1589 01:28:40,439 --> 01:28:43,280 Speaker 1: City just five percent. If the Chiefs win, Buffalo is 1590 01:28:43,320 --> 01:28:49,640 Speaker 1: still the favorite at twenty one percent. The Chiefs and 1591 01:28:49,680 --> 01:28:52,240 Speaker 1: Packers over the next three weeks with a buy in between. 1592 01:28:52,280 --> 01:28:58,800 Speaker 1: Then they go Jets, Vikings, Browns, Lions, Jets, Bears, Bengals, 1593 01:28:58,840 --> 01:29:02,200 Speaker 1: and then with the Patriots and and the Jet, Patriots 1594 01:29:02,200 --> 01:29:05,880 Speaker 1: and the Dolphins mixed in. That's not a murderous road. 1595 01:29:05,960 --> 01:29:09,200 Speaker 1: The last last ten games. We'll see you tomorrow. At one. 1596 01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:11,880 Speaker 1: We've got great Cosell and a new tasker's teammate. We'll 1597 01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:12,160 Speaker 1: see it.
