And 177 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 2: with the NBA Finals and the NHL Finals stink into 178 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 2: high had which your snooze fest sink into high Heaven. 179 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 2: I'm very curious to see if you know, Fox, which 180 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 2: is carrying most of the tournament stuff, sees a bump 181 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 2: in their ratings because I mean there, if they had 182 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 2: it their way, those final series would be over already. 183 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 2: Just end them, sure, game fives right, perfect, right, get 184 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 2: it ended? 185 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 1: Come over here, yeah, come over and watch soccer. 186 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, the because soccer sometimes does outdraw baseball in ratings. 187 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 4: Now, i'd watch it before baseball, you know how I 188 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 4: feel about that. But the NBA Finals with the Celtics 189 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 4: and the Mavericks, and the NHL Finals with the Oilers 190 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 4: and the Panthers both snooze fests, just. 191 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: And I get it. 192 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 2: I think it's because these teams are just so worn 193 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 2: down and beat up like one hundred games each, Like 194 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 2: is that do you think that's part of it? Like 195 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 2: that's the quality of the. 196 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 4: Products some but I think it's non competitive. I mean, 197 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 4: the Celtics are up three to nothing. No team has 198 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 4: ever lost a final series going up three nothing. Now 199 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 4: you know, there's always that chance they could be the 200 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 4: first in history. But they walk into the last, into 201 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 4: the game four in Dallas, and you could tell, I 202 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 4: could tell you get the idea. 203 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: That Boston didn't want to win that game. 204 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 4: They were like, let's get back to Boston's we can 205 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 4: win a championship in our building. Well, let's just let 206 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 4: them have And they won, and then indeed, Mavericks won 207 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 4: by thirty plus. I mean, they were crushing it. The 208 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 4: Celtics could not have been less interested, and it was obvious. 209 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: And I get it. 210 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 4: You got all these guys like Steven A and all 211 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 4: these the guys at halftime, everybody's like going, oh, but 212 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,439 Speaker 4: they got Mavericks are just doing all this. 213 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: Isn't they doing that? 214 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 4: The Celtics don't even care. Yeah, they're taking a night 215 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 4: off to rest up. And then the Edmonton Panthers series. 216 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 2: Hey to one game. 217 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: I feel bad for McDavid. 218 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's the best player in the world and he's 219 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 4: playing and I listen, I'm sure Edmonton's a wonderful city, 220 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 4: but it is. 221 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: It is like way out there. 222 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, it's four hundred miles due north of Calgary. 223 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: Calgary is way out there. 224 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's four. 225 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: Hundred I've been to Calgary. 226 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 2: I've been to both places. 227 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: Listen. 228 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 4: I've been to Calgary for a nice week and we 229 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 4: went to the Great Cup up there, and when my 230 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 4: son was playing in the CFL, I had a Great 231 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 4: Cup in Nice City. Nice a little bit like if 232 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 4: you took Denver, Colorado, and moved it forty miles east 233 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 4: into the nothingness of the high planes and took it 234 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 4: out of them at front of the mountains, but you 235 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 4: could still be right there at the mountain. That's Calgary, 236 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 4: beautiful city. But they put it like thirty miles outside 237 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 4: the mountains, not right at the edge of the mountains. 238 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 2: I was in Edmonton probably about twenty years ago, and 239 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 2: I was there in February ooh, and me and my 240 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 2: fellow co workers came to the pretty confident conclusion that 241 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 2: had no one discovered oil in Edmonton, no one would 242 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 2: be there. 243 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 244 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 4: I can see that there's an argument to be made 245 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 4: for that, a pretty solid argument. 246 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 2: I remember being on the plane. We flew out of 247 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 2: Toronto direct to Calgary.

My first inhale every one of my 266 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 2: nose hair is in my nose froze on contact. 267 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 4: It is dangerous cold, dangerous on contact, like frighteningly cold. 268 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 2: The funniest thing was we get in this fifteen passenger 269 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 2: van to go to the hotel and the driver has 270 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 2: a windows scraper. Okay, but the windows scraper is for 271 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 2: the inside of the windshield, not the outside, because he 272 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 2: has defrost on full black and it doesn't matter. 273 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: Doesn't cut it. 274 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 2: So at the red lights he's scraping the inside of 275 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 2: the windshield. And as you know, salt does not work 276 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,839 Speaker 2: below ten degrees fahrenheit. It doesn't melt snow anymore below 277 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 2: ten degrees. We're in Edmonton in February, right, they didn't 278 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 2: even try salt. So there's just tire tracks in a 279 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 2: pack down snow mound where the middle trench or the 280 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 2: two trenches for the tires and then the middle hump 281 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 2: is like where you're hoping your car clears. 282 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: It's oh my gosh. 283 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a different universe. 284 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 4: So anyway, so yeah, they're in the And remember no 285 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 4: Canadian NHL team has won the Stanley Cup in like 286 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 4: thirty three years. 287 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 2: What is it?

So 293 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 4: it's so Edmonton shows up in the finals this year 294 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 4: and then decided not to show up in the finals. 295 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 4: I mean, they it's a snooze fest. It's absolutely and 296 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 4: same thing in the NBA. The Celtics are better. They're 297 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 4: just better, particularly when poor Zingis plays the big dude 298 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 4: and he's you know, injury prone and all that, and 299 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 4: he's been in and out of the line and the 300 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 4: grind is catching up to him. 301 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: You can, you can tell. 302 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 4: But the Celtics are just way better.

That was good to see 352 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 2: and it was received pretty favorably from what I saw 353 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 2: from the comments on social media. When the schedule came out. 354 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 2: Training camp Tickets for the general public will be distributed 355 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 2: via a ticket lottery this year, and there is a 356 00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 2: link on Buffalo bills dot com that you can clar 357 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 2: to enter the public practice lottery.

Yeah, what is it the practice 378 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 4: they in turn in the stadium. Yeah, so they give 379 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 4: them Wednesday off and they have a walk through Thursday, 380 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 4: and then Friday they'll be here at High Market and 381 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 4: then we'll be here. 382 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 1: We'll be over there for the remainder of every day. 383 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 2: There a little back and forth, but mostly out there 384 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 2: during the course of training. Training camp wraps up August eighth. 385 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, they only stay out there for a couple of weeks. 386 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, and little over they'll be permanently before they even 387 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 2: play their first preseason game, which is the tenth against Chicago's. 388 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: Interesting, that's what they do. 389 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 4: They they practice all the preseason before the preseason games 390 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 4: all over in Rochester. And I think it's a really 391 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 4: good move. I mean, and it has more to do 392 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 4: with the personality, like the chemistry, the camaraderie, the jumping 393 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,160 Speaker 4: into it both again and being immersed in it. Yeah, 394 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 4: twenty four to seven for just like two well, it's 395 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 4: like two weeks basically before they break for that first 396 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 4: preseason game and they hit the road I think this 397 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 4: year twice and they're home once in the preseason or 398 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 4: maybe I had that reversed. 399 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they're home twice. 400 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: They're home twice, and so we only have. 401 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 2: They only have eight home games nine road games in 402 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 2: the regular season, so you get the extra home preseason game. 403 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: That's exactly right. 404 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 4: So they're they're on the road at Chicago, no, no, here, 405 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 4: all against Chicago, on the road at Pittsburgh, and then 406 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 4: home against Carolina for the end of the preseason. And 407 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 4: that's it's really nice to It makes a lot of 408 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 4: sense from a guy who, for me used to play 409 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 4: go away, get all your work in, away from all 410 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 4: the distractions. Twenty four to seven. It's all football. It's 411 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,120 Speaker 4: all the teams, all your guys, practice, practice, practice, workout, workout, 412 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 4: rest when you can, and then come back and start 413 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,959 Speaker 4: playing games, even if they are preseason games. 414 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 2: So if you need more information, go to Buffalo Bills 415 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 2: dot com. It's all they are spelled out, at least 416 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 2: in terms of what information they can give you. Now, 417 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 2: if you're a season ticket member, you'll obviously be emailed 418 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 2: more information in the coming days. The latest saga in 419 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 2: the Brandon Aiyuk contract squabble between he and the forty 420 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 2: nine ers has led to a curious social media post 421 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 2: from Brandon Ayuk, who, in a FaceTime conversation with Jaden Daniels, 422 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 2: is asked by Daniels what happened bro to which Ayuk responds, 423 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 2: they don't want me back for real. Apparently some have 424 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 2: speculated that Ayuk is referring to the forty nine ers 425 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 2: not wanting him back as he is seeking a contract extension. 426 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,919 Speaker 2: Whether that's the case or not as kind of unclear. 427 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 2: But his significant other is filming him as he's conversing 428 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 2: with Daniels. So the motive here is interesting to say 429 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 2: the least. And there's been a little bit of a 430 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 2: narrative here. Back in February, on the twelfth, which is 431 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 2: like right after the Super Bowl, Ayuk's girlfriend posts on 432 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 2: ig it might be the last time we stepped foot 433 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 2: at Levi Stadium because we might not be here next season. 434 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 2: Ayuk then followed up with a post of his own 435 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 2: that said, don't forget what you got there. Then the 436 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 2: next day, Ayuk's best friend says, this is the exact 437 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 2: reason why we're leaving San Francisco. Then in March it's 438 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 2: reported that he's a possible trade candidate. Then later GM 439 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 2: John Lynch says they're in contact with Ayuk's camp to 440 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 2: work out a long term deal, and then Ayuk responds 441 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 2: with an IG post that says money talks and you 442 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 2: know what walks. Then in April he unfollows the forty 443 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 2: nine ers on Instagram. Then Jeremy Fowler reports that Ayuk 444 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 2: wants a monro Saint Brown money and wants to use 445 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: it as a benchmark. Then it was reported earlier this 446 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 2: month that Ayuk might still be traded before the November 447 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:52,120 Speaker 2: trade deadline, you know, right after Halloween. And then today 448 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 2: we get this TikTok conversation between Ayuk and Jaden Daniels. 449 00:21:55,960 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 2: So I am completely stupefied as to what kind of 450 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 2: leverage people are trying to gain here, like just talk 451 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 2: to the other side or have your agent, Like, come on, 452 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 2: what are we doing here? 453 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 4: I think to me, this is on Ayuk. I mean 454 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 4: I haven't heard much coming out of the forty nine. 455 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 2: Ers outside of John Lynch back in March saying we're 456 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 2: talking to their camp and blah blah. 457 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 4: Ayuk wants monster money. He doesn't want to play without it. 458 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 4: He wants thirty a year and that's it and he's 459 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,479 Speaker 4: not going to do it without it, and the Niners 460 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 4: are going no, yeah, say no. 461 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: There's a part of me that wonders are the Niners 462 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 2: kind of in an if then scenario here in terms 463 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 2: of receiver commitment? And what I mean by that is 464 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 2: we've heard before. You know that Deebo Samuel is a 465 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 2: guy that a couple of years ago they were looking 466 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 2: to move off the roster. Ultimately they did not. Now 467 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 2: he's two years older. I think he's thirty or thirty one. 468 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,199 Speaker 2: Only twenty six logic would say they'd prefer to keep 469 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 2: Ayuk for the long term move on from Samuel. So 470 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,199 Speaker 2: are you kind of caught between a rock and a 471 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 2: hard place here where you can't give Ayuk the Monster 472 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 2: contract until you move Samuel off of your roster. I'm 473 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 2: wondering if those two are tied together or if they 474 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 2: are mutually exclusive. But I don't think I can foresee 475 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 2: a Niners roster that has Ayuk with a new deal 476 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 2: and Samuel on it at the same time. I think 477 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 2: it's one or the other. And so now the question becomes, 478 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 2: do you just part with Ayuk because you just don't 479 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 2: want to fork over that kind of money. I mean, 480 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 2: you still have Rock Purty on a rookie deal, so 481 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,679 Speaker 2: you could conceivably hand out a giant contract. Now you 482 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 2: paid Nick Bosa giant money. Fred Warner got his deal, 483 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 2: so it's not like they're devoid of big contracts. Trent Williams, 484 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 2: the left tackle, is still making big money, so they 485 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 2: have a lot of big money contract. 486 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 4: Williams is the highest one. Then you got Deebo Samuel's 487 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,360 Speaker 4: twenty eight million dollars yea. 488 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:05,959 Speaker 2: So you can't have a twenty eight million a year 489 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 2: receiver and a. 490 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 4: Thirty eighteen Nick Bosa's fifteen. Brandon Ayuka is now he 491 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 4: gets fourteen because of the. 492 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 1: Fifty year ops fifty year option. 493 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,719 Speaker 2: But they're real top heavy with contracts. I gotta believe 494 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 2: there's no team in the league in good conscience even 495 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 2: with a quarterback on a rookie contract that has two 496 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 2: receivers making twenty eight or more each. It's just to me, 497 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 2: it's not sustainable. Maybe for a year, but long term, 498 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 2: it's just not sustainable and it's not good business practice. 499 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 2: You have one alpha male and then fill in with 500 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 2: the rest. I mean, you want to have an eight 501 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 2: million dollar a year guy, Okay, I'll listen to that, 502 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,919 Speaker 2: but you can't have two guys at twenty eight and thirty. Well, 503 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 2: I'm realizing as I'm saying this that the Dolphins technically 504 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 2: kind of have that now. 505 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, but they don't. They don't have a Christian McCaffrey either. 506 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 2: Well, no, they don't. And so who's making like what eighteen? 507 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 7: Right? 508 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 4: But his cap HiT's not that big. But he's still 509 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,239 Speaker 4: got that big contract coming up. You know, he's going 510 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 4: to hit it in a minute. McCaffrey's got his numbers 511 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 4: six point six this year, but he's got a twenty 512 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,479 Speaker 4: eight million dollar dead cap hit. 513 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 1: He's not going anywhere, right, So. 514 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, and he was the leading rusher last year. 515 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 2: Why would he? 516 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. 517 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 4: So it's interesting because now you've got it. It's always 518 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 4: been quarterback, quarterback, quarterback, and it still is. But now 519 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 4: because of the cap getting big, and we're all getting 520 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 4: onto this page where there's money positions and there's not 521 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 4: money positions. 522 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, wide receiver is a. 523 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 4: Money spot and you need a bunch, you need a 524 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 4: handful of those guys. There isn't room for a handful 525 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 4: of those guys making twenty plus a year, and you 526 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 4: can let alone thirty. 527 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 2: You can't have two top of the market guys right 528 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 2: at the same position. 529 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 4: That's the interesting dynamic because everybody can always always afford 530 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 4: one guy at that position at quarterback, but you can't 531 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 4: afford three at one position. 532 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 2: That's why seeing the Dolphins go ahead and pay Waddle 533 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 2: recently was so surprising. Yeah, because they're already paying a 534 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,719 Speaker 2: tyree thirty a year. Wattle's right behind him, and now 535 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 2: you still have to pay Tua Yeah, or are you 536 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 2: not gonna pay to well? All signs are pointing to 537 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 2: them paying to it, but they're gonna pay. You got 538 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence making fifty five a year too, it's got 539 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 2: to make more than that. He had better numbers than 540 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,360 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence, better. 541 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: Numbers they never say have to because that's the agent. 542 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,199 Speaker 4: Miami could snap out of it and say maybe you know, 543 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 4: I mean, they could snap out of this new yes, 544 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 4: and which is what you and I both think. 545 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: There's just no way that. 546 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 2: Well, no, there because now you you don't sign him, 547 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 2: what's he play under the fifty year option? If he plays, 548 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 2: and then it's yeah, I mean he's probably holding out 549 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 2: right and saying trade me or whatever. 550 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 4: We've heard about Miami ownership. They they get him to 551 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 4: play the fifty year option and give him the old 552 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,920 Speaker 4: helmet back and hope, I hope they don't have you know, wow, 553 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 4: I mean seriously, these are the guys that are paying 554 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:56,680 Speaker 4: their head coach not to win. So yeah, it's it's 555 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,360 Speaker 4: gonna it's dirty in Miami on there. 556 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: I don't I just. 557 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 2: Don't understand this the way they they kind of navigated this. 558 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 2: I would have thought, get the quarterback done first, figure 559 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 2: out Wattle later. 560 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,400 Speaker 1: It's all backwards down there. 561 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 2: That just to me, you don't have Tua. Mike White 562 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 2: is your guy? Like that? 563 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: What what I get it? 564 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:25,679 Speaker 2: I don't. 565 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 1: They've all no, I get it. They they got Tua. 566 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,199 Speaker 4: They got to kind of live with him, and I 567 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 4: think in their heart of hearts they know he's not 568 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 4: gonna get it for him and they've got a long 569 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 4: way to go with the rest of their They've tried it. 570 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 4: They had that great defense, had all those guys over 571 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 4: on defense. It wasn't enough because you gotta face Josh 572 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 4: twice a year and he absolutely choose you up and 573 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 4: spits you out. 574 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you've got no chance even in your 575 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:51,679 Speaker 1: own division. 576 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 4: And now the Jets, Now the Jets are gonna curb 577 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 4: stomp you with Tua. 578 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I mean that they gotta, they gotta. 579 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: They gotta be sitting there going. 580 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 2: The third best quarterback. 581 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 4: In the Yeah, it's it's a rough place to be. 582 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 2: So and maybe that's why it's taking so long, because 583 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 2: there Chris Career is probably sitting in his office now saying, 584 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,360 Speaker 2: I'm gonna pay the third best quarterback in our division 585 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 2: fifty six million dollars a year. 586 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: Oh my god, think about it. 587 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 2: Oh my god, what have we done? 588 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, when do you think that light went off for 589 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 4: those guys? 590 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: It was tank for t a tank for Tua. 591 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 4: So you get Tua and then the Chargers draft Justin Herbert, 592 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 4: who after you, after you?

Chiefs have a bunch of problems here 695 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 2: this offseason. My gosh, she Rice. 696 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 4: And others right, well, the Chiefs have had a number 697 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 4: of incidents like this in off seasons and even in 698 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 4: during seas. It's it's a long No team is immune 699 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 4: from it, no question about it. But the Chiefs do 700 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 4: seem to well. And when you're the world champions, you 701 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 4: get a little bit more scrutiny even further down your 702 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 4: roster like this. 703 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: Isaiah Bugs. 704 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:18,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, from the if history tells us anything is don't 705 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 4: automatically think the guy's going to be out the door 706 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 4: in Kansas City. 707 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 708 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 1: They tend to get given as they team to have. 709 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 1: They tend to have pretty thick skin there. Yeah. 710 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 2: Bengals wide receiver Te Higgins, in case you missed it 711 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,760 Speaker 2: over the weekend, officially in the fold for the upcoming season, 712 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 2: he signed his franchise tag Saturday, just a couple of 713 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,959 Speaker 2: days after their mandatory mini camp. By signing the tag, 714 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,839 Speaker 2: the fifty year wide receivers now expected to be at 715 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:48,359 Speaker 2: Bengals training camp, and then the Detroit Lions signing the 716 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 2: big footed UFL kicker Jake Bates to a two year 717 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 2: contract over the weekend. Bates, who's just twenty four years 718 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 2: old and a converted soccer player, didn't start kicking footballs 719 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 2: until his senior year in high school. Second in the 720 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 2: UFL this season with seventeen field goals for the Michigan Panthers. 721 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 2: It included a sixty four yard game winner back in 722 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 2: the season opener against Saint Louis. It's just two yard 723 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 2: shy of Justin Tucker's NFL record of sixty six. So 724 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 2: the Lions are bringing him in. Let's go kicked right 725 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 2: under their nose for the Michigan Panthers. So that's good 726 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 2: for him for parlaying that into a much bigger operation. 727 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,760 Speaker 4: I've had a lot during some of the offseason conversations 728 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 4: I've had with just people I know and fans and 729 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 4: all that kicking has been an issue. The kick in 730 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 4: the Kansas City game, it was haunted a lot of people, 731 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 4: including I think Tyler Bass still thinks about it, you know, 732 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 4: And that's one of the positions that realistically and logistically 733 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:51,320 Speaker 4: in reality, it's easy to substitute. The guy doesn't have 734 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 4: to learn play, just kick it, you know, so you 735 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 4: can change those guys out. We've seen teams do it 736 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 4: in the past, even midseason. They've always got a list 737 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,359 Speaker 4: of a handful of guys that they'll call that are 738 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 4: kickers that are like telling you know, hey, I'm in shape, 739 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 4: I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go, I'm ready 740 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 4: to go, and you know, all it takes is for 741 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 4: gym to go. You miss one kick and the guy 742 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 4: gets mad at you. It's like you're out. 743 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,760 Speaker 2: Bill's do have an undrafted rookie kicker on the roster, 744 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 2: Jack Browning from San Diego State. He plays, kicked, he 745 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 2: kicked off, and he punted, so he is gonna be 746 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,320 Speaker 2: in camp probably pushing Tyler Bass along. 747 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 4: So they did not do that last year when Tyler 748 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 4: Bass signed the extension. He's all by himself in training 749 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 4: camp and did it and wasn't his best year by 750 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,840 Speaker 4: all accounts. So I'm that's one of the things that 751 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 4: also kickers know about. I mean, whether you're and you 752 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 4: just know you're expendable, you know what i mean. It's 753 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 4: one of those things where you just get the big 754 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 4: raspberry and you're done. 755 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's a little bit different than other positions 756 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,359 Speaker 2: because there's only one of you. Yeah, you know, it's 757 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 2: not like there's three running backs on the roster or 758 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:07,759 Speaker 2: six receivers on the roster. There's one. 759 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: Yeah.

But on defense, 792 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:06,280 Speaker 8: it's Matt Mullane because he had that weird regament injury 793 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 8: you guys talked about that is not normal and we're 794 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 8: wondering if he's going to be able to come back 795 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 8: from it. 796 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a fair question to ask, and it makes 797 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 2: sense to want to keep an eye on that it's like, 798 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 2: are you going to have your all pro or you're not. 799 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 2: I mean that's a pretty big if, right, So, I mean, 800 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,840 Speaker 2: we got some encouraging signs at the start of mandatory 801 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,800 Speaker 2: mini camp when he was participating on a limited basis, 802 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 2: but even coach McDermott kind of intimated that he's not 803 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 2: out of the woods yet and based on how much 804 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 2: progress he makes between now and the start of training 805 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 2: camp will determine just how much he does in the 806 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 2: training camp setting. And he even raised the possibility that 807 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 2: Milano may not even be able to go back to 808 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,480 Speaker 2: back days of practicing right because of how there's because 809 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 2: of the hurdles that Milana still has to clear coming 810 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:05,320 Speaker 2: off that injury, right. And then as far as other players, 811 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,879 Speaker 2: he Tom likes the undrafted kids. He likes, he likes 812 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 2: the long shots. 813 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,479 Speaker 4: And it's true too, because you always feel like you're 814 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 4: even more of an expert if you think a guy 815 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 4: nobody knows about, saying now I'm telling you this, I 816 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 4: like this guy from the start, right exactly. So yeah, 817 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 4: everybody comes back with Tom on the west side hit 818 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,319 Speaker 4: all the high spots, though, I mean, he's hard to 819 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,840 Speaker 4: be wrong when you mentioned Andres and Gor Junior, Curtis Samuel, 820 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 4: the one and two wide receiver, Matt Mulano. So Curtis, 821 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 4: I hear you, Tom, but yeah, it's hard to be 822 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 4: wrong on every single one of those. So somewhere along 823 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 4: the line you gotta get one right. 824 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 825 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 2: And Curtis Samuel, you know, not for nothing, was the 826 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 2: biggest investment that the team made it receiver in terms 827 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 2: of dollars and cents, So I think a lot will 828 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 2: be expected of him. 829 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:53,760 Speaker 4: There's a lot of things. There's a lot of guys 830 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 4: that because there's been such a turnover, people are kind 831 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 4: of like going, oh, man, gosh, all these But you 832 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,840 Speaker 4: know what, you got Mike Edwards from the Champions. You 833 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 4: got Curtis Samuel, who's been playing with Billy Bagg of 834 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 4: Donuts and Charlie Sixpack at quarterback, and he's been putting 835 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 4: up numbers with those guys. Mac Hollins comes in as 836 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 4: a big time wide receiver. You've got you drafted a 837 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 4: first round draft pick, and Keon Coleman. You got Casey 838 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 4: two Hill from the Commanders as pass rusher. 839 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 1: I mean, all these. 840 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 4: Guys have a pedigree that is pretty respectable at least 841 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 4: respectable in the National Football League and around the and 842 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 4: around football. So to think that all of those guys 843 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 4: are just guys. Some of them may be, but there's 844 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 4: a lot of reason for each one of them to 845 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 4: think like this may be the moment where they finally 846 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 4: are on a team that can help them, or a 847 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 4: team that compliments them, or with a quarterback that can 848 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 4: help them. And for the guys that are draft picks, 849 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 4: like you know, Van Prant, Granger and Keon Coleman and 850 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:03,439 Speaker 4: you know all those guys, there's a lot of reason 851 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 4: to be optimistic. And you don't have to hit on 852 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 4: every one of those guys. You hit on just two 853 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 4: or three of all these new guys, I mean, you're 854 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 4: right back in the saddle. If you hit on more 855 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 4: than that, not only there, you're gonna get there quick 856 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:22,279 Speaker 4: if it's more than that, because you got you've got 857 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 4: a room full of receivers, all of whom are gonna 858 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:30,120 Speaker 4: be busting a gut to make it on this team 859 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:33,960 Speaker 4: and be successful and use every single opportunity throughout all 860 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 4: the way into January February, all of those games, they're 861 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 4: gonna be busting a gut to get there and it's 862 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 4: just a great atmosphere. I mean to sit here and 863 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 4: watch these guys, you know, take flight, because I think 864 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:47,720 Speaker 4: there's gonna be a ton of guys that the Bills 865 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 4: have signed in this free agent period and now of 866 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 4: course in the draft class that are really going to 867 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 4: pan out and play extremely well, because it's almost impossible 868 00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 4: to think that they won't all of them. You never 869 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:05,960 Speaker 4: hit on everybody, No, but man oh man, this GM 870 00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 4: and this Pro Pro Personnel Personnel group and the college 871 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 4: scouting they hit on. They hit five hundred. 872 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 2: Close to it. 873 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:17,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's that's a big number. 874 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,240 Speaker 2: It is a big number. It's certainly above the league average. 875 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 2: We got to take a break here because we're up 876 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 2: against the break. But when we come back, more of 877 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,800 Speaker 2: your phone calls will lead off with Richard and Newfane, 878 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:28,359 Speaker 2: but have open lines for you at eight h three 879 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,399 Speaker 2: oh five fifty with training camp schedule, now out who's 880 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,319 Speaker 2: the one Bills player you're watching at this year's training camp? 881 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,359 Speaker 2: You let us know next here on One Bill's Live, 882 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 2: presented by Colid of Health, it's Buffalo Bills Radio. All 883 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:54,720 Speaker 2: right back here on One Bill's Live, where we're asking 884 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:56,879 Speaker 2: you today who's the one Bills player you're watching during 885 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 2: this year's training camp. Training camp schedule came out today. 886 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 2: Check it out at Buffalo bills dot com to get 887 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 2: the full schedule in the slate and how you can 888 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 2: enter the ticket lottery for tickets to a practice. But 889 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:10,959 Speaker 2: in the meantime, we go to the phones and lead 890 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,759 Speaker 2: off his promise with Richard and new Faint. What's up, Richard, 891 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 2: what do you got for us afternoon? 892 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:19,480 Speaker 5: Guys? Well, I'm off. I'm obviously interested in all our 893 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 5: youngsters coming in because they're just always fun to watch. 894 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 5: But my biggest guy I'm going to be paying attention 895 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 5: to is Connor McGovern's transitioned at center. 896 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:30,399 Speaker 2: Good one. 897 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,960 Speaker 5: I just think he's going to be a bigger, stronger, 898 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,640 Speaker 5: and more powerful center than Mitch was. 899 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:37,239 Speaker 1: Now. 900 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 5: I know when when Morse would pull, he was extremely 901 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 5: effective out in space, but I just think the stronger 902 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 5: kid at center is going to improve our running game 903 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 5: and our past block and two. So I'll hang up 904 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,279 Speaker 5: and get your take on that bask game, guys. 905 00:44:55,560 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 2: I like that pick, Richard, and yeah, all early have 906 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 2: been encouraging. Granted still not playing real football pads are 907 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 2: not on yet and won't be for about six practices 908 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 2: of training camp either and preseason games will probably be 909 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 2: the definitive proof as to whether he can take over. 910 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,799 Speaker 2: But all reviews of him by coach McDermott and the 911 00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 2: offensive staff have been pretty positive. 912 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:25,280 Speaker 4: How that change affects the total offense, it may be 913 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 4: we may be only only only we may be able 914 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 4: only to ascertain that at the end of the season 915 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:35,359 Speaker 4: when you start looking at numbers, maybe they don't run 916 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:37,719 Speaker 4: wide where they got the center pulling up. 917 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 1: Maybe they go straight ahead more. 918 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 4: Maybe they run different types of running games, and you 919 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 4: won't and maybe only analytics will ever tell you that 920 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:46,919 Speaker 4: Josh is already one of the lead is the least 921 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 4: quarterback who's sacked in the league every year, just for 922 00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,640 Speaker 4: obvious reasons. You can't grab the guy, you can't just 923 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 4: pull him down. He shakes big dudes off, He outruns 924 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,800 Speaker 4: big dudes and little dudes. He's just hard to tackle. 925 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 4: So I think the only way you're gonna see a 926 00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 4: difference or ascertain a difference is by looking at analytics 927 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:08,879 Speaker 4: at the end of the year. Say when when Mitch 928 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 4: was here and he had McGovern at left guard, they 929 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 4: ran this type of running play at the end of 930 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 4: the year, we see now with McGovern at center and 931 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 4: whoever is going to be left guard, they ran this 932 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:26,160 Speaker 4: type of running play. You know, it's gonna be hard 933 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:29,400 Speaker 4: to tell. Now Josh comes out and pulls off an 934 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:33,200 Speaker 4: MVP season, McGovern's gonna get some credit, right, just like 935 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 4: all those guys they all, you know, a rising tide 936 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 4: raises all the ships. But I think it's gonna be 937 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,799 Speaker 4: it's hard for just regular fans, even guys like me 938 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 4: who played, to understand everything that goes into that position 939 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:48,440 Speaker 4: and to see it on a game to game basis. 940 00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 4: So while I think Connor McGovern maybe maybe you know, 941 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:54,319 Speaker 4: he may be headed to All pro status as a center, 942 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 4: who knows even so, he's he's stepping into an offense 943 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,319 Speaker 4: run by a unicorn at quarterback who overcomes a lot 944 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:07,760 Speaker 4: of deficiencies around him and who does things nobody else does. 945 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 4: It's going to be really hard for Connor McGovern to 946 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 4: make a difference that we will see now, the guys 947 00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:19,799 Speaker 4: in the room, they'll feel it, Josh will appreciate it, 948 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 4: and there'll be other you know, there'll be aspects of 949 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:24,600 Speaker 4: the game where he will make a big difference, and 950 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:27,279 Speaker 4: we won't be able to see because they're all so 951 00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:29,239 Speaker 4: hidden down in there, and everything they do. 952 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:30,000 Speaker 1: Is all coded. 953 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 4: You know, we don't know what he's talking to, both 954 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 4: guards and the tackles and what they're supposed to be 955 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,799 Speaker 4: doing and as opposed to what they did do. All 956 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 4: that's it's really esoteric. It's really secretive, and it's wrapped 957 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 4: in mystery and coded language. What you can listen to 958 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:50,160 Speaker 4: is when Josh goes to the podium and what he 959 00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:52,359 Speaker 4: says about those guys and what he says about him 960 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 4: in private. That's really the way that you're going to 961 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:58,239 Speaker 4: find out. I think Connor McGovern's ability and what he 962 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:04,680 Speaker 4: said was about playing center this year was really I 963 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:09,120 Speaker 4: raised everybody's eyebrows because we all had questions. Yeah, he 964 00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 4: answered them all in one interview on the media. He 965 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 4: answered all the questions. It was cool to see and 966 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:17,799 Speaker 4: I think all of us were caught by it. 967 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,160 Speaker 2: Let's go to John in Detroit next. What's up John? 968 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 9: Hey, gentlemen, thanks for taking my call. One quick as 969 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 9: side on the Edmonton temperature. Back in the eighty four, 970 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,200 Speaker 9: I was covering the Red Wings for Detroit and I 971 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:36,759 Speaker 9: spent Christmas Day in Milwaukee with in laws because the 972 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:38,719 Speaker 9: NHL's got a good contract, they don't have to play 973 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:42,120 Speaker 9: on Christmas Day. But I left. I played golf on 974 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,799 Speaker 9: sixty five degree weather in Milwaukee, and then the next 975 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 9: day I flew out to Edmonton and then when I 976 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:51,800 Speaker 9: landed it was minus forty literally one and five degrees different. 977 00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 2: Not right. 978 00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 9: Yeah, But the player I really want to watch, and 979 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:01,720 Speaker 9: it's because I have a a feeling for all players 980 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 9: nearing the end of their careers and I really want 981 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 9: to see von Miller and hoping that, you know, he 982 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 9: can go out in a way that some others. I 983 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:12,280 Speaker 9: mean here in Detroit. You know, Miguel Cabrera's last season 984 00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 9: was kind of pitiful to watch, and you know, stars, 985 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:20,359 Speaker 9: superstars like that. I hope Vaughn really makes a big 986 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:23,319 Speaker 9: addition to this defense and this team this year. I'd 987 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 9: love to see that. And that's what I'll be watching for. 988 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, I mean that's comment on that. Yeah, that's 989 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,000 Speaker 2: a good one, John. I mean I would certainly, I 990 00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 2: would say everybody's kind of hoping for that. We're all 991 00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 2: in the same boat, I would think, and you know, 992 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:39,400 Speaker 2: looking more like the old Vaughn would be like an 993 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 2: eight to ten SAX season. And I just have a 994 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 2: hunch on this. I have no evidence of this, but 995 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 2: my hunch is in an effort to get that out 996 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 2: of him, I think they make him almost exclusively a 997 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:53,360 Speaker 2: pass rush specialist, where he's playing thirty snaps a game 998 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,920 Speaker 2: and only in obvious passing situations. They got plenty of 999 00:49:57,960 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 2: guys on this roster to set the edge and the 1000 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,279 Speaker 2: run front and play on rundowns and stuff like that. 1001 00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 2: Just let this guy cook on pass rushing downs and 1002 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 2: see if you can get the von Miller of old 1003 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:09,400 Speaker 2: and who knows, maybe he puts up an eight to 1004 00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 2: ten SAX season. 1005 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:14,520 Speaker 4: And I'll say this too, Vaughn's no spring chicken for sure. 1006 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:17,960 Speaker 4: And he's also you know, he's thirty five. He's pretty 1007 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 4: smart too. When he came to Buffalo, he knew I mean, 1008 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:25,319 Speaker 4: he was deep into his career and Buffalo has this 1009 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 4: philosophy of rotating guys. And I think for the first 1010 00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 4: time in his career, not that he didn't that he 1011 00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 4: got it, but that he needs it is for other 1012 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:37,279 Speaker 4: guys to take more reps from him so he can 1013 00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:39,839 Speaker 4: be fresh on the reps he gets in. They don't 1014 00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 4: expect him to take fifty reps a game. But if 1015 00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 4: he can take twenty five and they can be on 1016 00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 4: passing downs and he can get a sack every you know, 1017 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 4: twenty snaps, that'd be an awesome season for him. They're 1018 00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 4: gonna have to monitor his reps at his age, and 1019 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,719 Speaker 4: I think will help him do that. And if you 1020 00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,440 Speaker 4: can just get him at one hundred percent von Miller 1021 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:09,800 Speaker 4: for fewer snaps, that's that's what you're looking for. I 1022 00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:13,440 Speaker 4: thought last year. Now, I'm sure he didn't feel it 1023 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 4: one hundred percent. I'm sure he wasn't feeling like he 1024 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:19,880 Speaker 4: was twenty five, but he looked good at the end 1025 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:21,960 Speaker 4: of that season. He didn't ever get a he never 1026 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 4: got a stat. We all know that, but that guy, 1027 00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 4: to me looked like he belonged out there even so, 1028 00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 4: and I think this year it's gonna be a different 1029 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 4: story from start to finish. Obviously, he's gonna be two 1030 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:36,600 Speaker 4: years removed, or almost two years. 1031 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:37,240 Speaker 1: And. 1032 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:42,319 Speaker 4: He's gonna have the ability to manage his workload like 1033 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 4: he's never had before, particularly with Sean McDermott's defense and 1034 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:49,239 Speaker 4: Bob Babbage's guidance. And think I just think he's in 1035 00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:51,920 Speaker 4: a perfect spot to get whatever we got out of him, 1036 00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:53,520 Speaker 4: whatever he's got out of him. 1037 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 2: Our number one in the books, but still taking your 1038 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:58,120 Speaker 2: phone calls in our number two. I got a step 1039 00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:00,800 Speaker 2: aside for a break here, but JOCKI in South Buffalo. 1040 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 2: Jim and Lockport will lead us off in hour number two. 1041 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 2: Here on a Monday on One Bill's Live, presented by 1042 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:45,359 Speaker 2: call Out of Health.

Who is at the top of your list. 1051 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 2: We know you probably have multiple players you're interested in 1052 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 2: taking a look at, But who's Numero uno You let 1053 00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:19,359 Speaker 2: us know. At eight h three h five fifty one 1054 00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,200 Speaker 2: eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty Back to 1055 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,399 Speaker 2: the phones, we go into Chuck in South Buffalo. What's 1056 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:24,799 Speaker 2: up Chuck? 1057 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 7: Hey, guys, Every Monday pictures taking my call, I said, 1058 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:32,640 Speaker 7: a couple of callers take my take my thunder with me. 1059 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:35,960 Speaker 7: I'm I'm watching Connor McGovern. You know, nobody, really, I 1060 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:37,839 Speaker 7: shouldn't say nobody, but not a lot of people give 1061 00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,319 Speaker 7: up credit to the quarterback and center relationship. 1062 00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:41,600 Speaker 9: You know. 1063 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,880 Speaker 7: You mean Cowie had Kent Hall for how many years? 1064 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 7: Peyton Manning had Jeff Saturday. I mean, it really is 1065 00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 7: one of the most unique relationships in football, you know. 1066 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:57,200 Speaker 7: I mean, you're pretty much involved with each other every 1067 00:53:57,280 --> 00:54:00,200 Speaker 7: single place, so having to be in lockstep with each 1068 00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:04,239 Speaker 7: other is just super important. I remember just being so 1069 00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:08,760 Speaker 7: upset when we passed on Creed Humphrey to select Boogie Dasham. 1070 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:10,880 Speaker 7: You know, I thought Creed Humphrey could have been the 1071 00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:13,719 Speaker 7: center for this team for the next ten years. Paired 1072 00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:15,680 Speaker 7: him up with Josh. But I mean, I'm all for 1073 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 7: it if it's McGovern, you know, if Van Pram Granger, 1074 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:22,400 Speaker 7: if I'm saying that right, he ends up kind of 1075 00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:26,520 Speaker 7: emerging out of all this. I mean, needing a bigger 1076 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:31,160 Speaker 7: body up front was necessary, and I absolutely loved the 1077 00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 7: veteran presence that Mitch Morse was, but you can see 1078 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,479 Speaker 7: him get pushed around and I believe in the play 1079 00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 7: that Allen threw short to Shakir in the playoff game, 1080 00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:43,319 Speaker 7: you know it was correct me if I'm wrong, I 1081 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:45,640 Speaker 7: believe it was Chris Jones pushing up on Mitch. 1082 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:48,840 Speaker 9: Morse or it's something to that effect. 1083 00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,239 Speaker 7: But you know, you see him get bossed around on 1084 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 7: the line a little bit, and I'm hoping for a 1085 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 7: little more beef up front between well Cyrus Torrence McGovern 1086 00:54:57,480 --> 00:55:01,279 Speaker 7: and then whoever they end up s thing at left guard, 1087 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:05,359 Speaker 7: whether it's Edwards Lyle Collins, and nobody's talking about him 1088 00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:09,480 Speaker 7: at all really being a potential for that spot. You know, 1089 00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 7: you have good options to fill in that line. So 1090 00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:16,359 Speaker 7: it's Gott McGovern for me, and thanks for taking my call. 1091 00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you, Jeck for making it. I mean, I'll 1092 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:23,759 Speaker 2: just say I think that if there was one thing, 1093 00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:26,600 Speaker 2: if you want a nitpick on Mitch's time in Buffalo, 1094 00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:31,239 Speaker 2: his frame he's like about six six and I'm not, 1095 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,880 Speaker 2: by no means was he spindily through the legs, but 1096 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,560 Speaker 2: his frame he was always seemed a little top heavy 1097 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:39,360 Speaker 2: to me, and so I think if a defensive lineman 1098 00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:41,440 Speaker 2: could get some leverage on him, he could get him 1099 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:44,400 Speaker 2: moving in a direction he didn't want to pretty effectively, 1100 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 2: and it was hard for him to recover and then 1101 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:51,520 Speaker 2: resustain his engagement on a block. I don't think it 1102 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:58,359 Speaker 2: was a frequent deficiency, but it would pop up every 1103 00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 2: so often. And look, Chris Jones does that to a 1104 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:04,439 Speaker 2: lot of guys, not just Chrich Morse. He's the first 1105 00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:08,880 Speaker 2: team All Pro like perennially, he's a special player. But 1106 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:12,479 Speaker 2: I do think with McGovern in there, if in fact 1107 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:17,240 Speaker 2: that becomes the lockdown guard to guard lineup edwards McGovern Torrance, 1108 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,200 Speaker 2: I think we're looking at a lot more straight ahead 1109 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:24,600 Speaker 2: bully ball because McGovern is thick throughout top to bottom. 1110 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 2: His frame is just a little bit different than that 1111 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:31,239 Speaker 2: of Morse. Now. At the same time, McGovern's not gonna 1112 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:33,279 Speaker 2: get out and pull either. I don't think that's in 1113 00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:37,239 Speaker 2: his repertoire. I could be wrong, we'll see, but I 1114 00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:39,680 Speaker 2: think with the success of the pin and pull schemes 1115 00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 2: last year, with the tackles who are very athletic and 1116 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:46,200 Speaker 2: Dawkins and Brown, I don't think you need a center 1117 00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:48,520 Speaker 2: that can get out and pull necessarily because you have 1118 00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:52,200 Speaker 2: tackles who could do it. So I think that affords 1119 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 2: them the luxury of saying, you know what, let's just 1120 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,360 Speaker 2: put more beef in there and go straight ahead. 1121 00:56:56,920 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's certainly often. I said it a little in 1122 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:03,000 Speaker 4: the last segment. Offensive line plays a little bit, you know, 1123 00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:05,719 Speaker 4: shrouded in mystery for a lot of people because it's 1124 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:09,279 Speaker 4: it's the one position group where you talk about five 1125 00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:11,200 Speaker 4: different guys and you talk about them. 1126 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:12,880 Speaker 1: As one O line. It's the old line. What's the 1127 00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 1: O line gonna do? Are they good? Are they bad? 1128 00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:17,240 Speaker 4: Well, you don't ever take into consideration, well, your left 1129 00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 4: guard's okay, and your right tackles okay, and the center 1130 00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:22,919 Speaker 4: and the right guard and the left tackle are really good. 1131 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:25,440 Speaker 4: Nobody talks like that unless you get down, unless you're 1132 00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 4: a coach who's watching film. It's either your offensive line 1133 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:31,800 Speaker 4: is great or it's bad. That's the way we all 1134 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:33,600 Speaker 4: talk about it, and that's the way most fans look 1135 00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:36,600 Speaker 4: at it. Certainly, a guy like Connor McGovern and Osiris 1136 00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 4: torrents down insides gives you the idea that they're gonna 1137 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:42,880 Speaker 4: be big down in there. Whoever steps in beside McGovern 1138 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 4: and left guard Dion's enormous Spencer Brown is enormous. It 1139 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:53,840 Speaker 4: just looks like a foregone conclusion that they're gonna be 1140 00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:57,560 Speaker 4: like that. The two tackles, like Brownie said, do have 1141 00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:01,160 Speaker 4: and have exhibited the ability to get out in front 1142 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:06,480 Speaker 4: of a running play. But they're gonna the offensive line 1143 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 4: and all those guys down in there are exactly like 1144 00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 4: every other position group. They're gonna watch them during the 1145 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:14,640 Speaker 4: preseason and these OTAs and the mini camps, preseason games, 1146 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 4: and they're gonna find out what they're good at, and 1147 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:19,760 Speaker 4: when they do, you're gonna see a ton of it. Now, 1148 00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 4: this Bill's offensive line last year was an anomaly. Not 1149 00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 4: a single one of them missed a snap up until 1150 00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:28,480 Speaker 4: the Pittsburgh game when Dion took one series off because 1151 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:32,560 Speaker 4: he had stitches in his fings. They stayed there out there, 1152 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 4: and it was them and nobody else unless they stuck out. 1153 00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:39,040 Speaker 4: Who was it the sixth offensive line, Yeah, David Edwards 1154 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,280 Speaker 4: would come on for go a sixth offensive lineman. There 1155 00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 4: was the same five guys one hundred percent of the 1156 00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:48,960 Speaker 4: snaps almost every single game. Statistically, You say that's not 1157 00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:49,640 Speaker 4: gonna happen this. 1158 00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:51,960 Speaker 2: Year, Well, yeah, the law of averages. 1159 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,440 Speaker 4: But they're gonna find out what this offensive line is 1160 00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 4: good at. And you can bet that's what you're gonna see. 1161 00:58:57,560 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 4: They've got a pass protect that's a given. But the 1162 00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,000 Speaker 4: kind a running play that you're talking about, like Brownie 1163 00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 4: was alluding to, is gonna will become their running game 1164 00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:09,000 Speaker 4: and they will adapt to what those guys are good at. 1165 00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:14,080 Speaker 4: Cohler will do, I'm not Coler Chromer. Chromer will do that, 1166 00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 4: and they'll they'll they'll say, yeah, these guys are going 1167 00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:19,840 Speaker 4: to be really good at this, and that's what it's 1168 00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:23,000 Speaker 4: going to look like. Really hard to say from this 1169 00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:25,360 Speaker 4: end of the season schedule before we seen them take 1170 00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:28,280 Speaker 4: a snap what this offensive line will be good at 1171 00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:30,280 Speaker 4: as opposed to last year's offensive line. 1172 00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 2: Who is the one Bills player you're watching during this 1173 00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:35,720 Speaker 2: year's training camp? Training camp schedule came out today. It's 1174 00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:38,000 Speaker 2: on the website of Buffalo Bills dot com. Check it out. 1175 00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:40,640 Speaker 2: We've got two gyms in Lockport here. We'll go to 1176 00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:43,400 Speaker 2: the one that's been holding longer. So Jim in Lockport 1177 00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:45,840 Speaker 2: number one. What do you got for us? 1178 00:59:46,120 --> 00:59:52,360 Speaker 10: I want kylaire Elam. I was excited when we drafted him. 1179 00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 10: I just remember he was flying up here and they 1180 00:59:56,880 --> 01:00:00,920 Speaker 10: said he's already reviewing the playbook, and I really hope 1181 01:00:00,920 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 10: he breaks through and becomes the All Pro that he 1182 01:00:03,840 --> 01:00:05,200 Speaker 10: can become. My hope. 1183 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:07,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, he's going to have a new lease 1184 01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:10,240 Speaker 2: on his career, and I think he's hoping to finally 1185 01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:14,440 Speaker 2: get it off the ground. He's got a new cornerbacks coach, 1186 01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:21,800 Speaker 2: he's got a new defensive coordinator. So I think he's 1187 01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:24,919 Speaker 2: shown enough flashes where he's going to get a prime 1188 01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:28,120 Speaker 2: opportunity here in training camp to compete for his starting job. 1189 01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:33,760 Speaker 2: I think he directly benefited from the absence of Raseul 1190 01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 2: Douglas through all of OTA's I mean, Rasul Douglas was 1191 01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:39,520 Speaker 2: here a mandatory minicamp last week. He was asked about 1192 01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:41,600 Speaker 2: why he missed OTA's He's like, I've always done that. 1193 01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:43,920 Speaker 2: I have to step away from the game in the 1194 01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 2: spring so I can come back rejuvenated and refreshed. I've 1195 01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:50,280 Speaker 2: always done it that way. Well, Kyrie Elan was the 1196 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 2: direct beneficiary of that because he got all the starter 1197 01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 2: snaps in Raeul Douglas's absence, right, and then in mandatory 1198 01:00:57,520 --> 01:01:01,200 Speaker 2: minicamp Christian Benford was out on an excused absence for 1199 01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:05,760 Speaker 2: a family matter. Elan was getting a lot of snaps again. Yeah, 1200 01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 2: So he was a direct beneficiary of the absence of 1201 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:12,960 Speaker 2: Douglas in OTAs and Benford in mini camp. So he's 1202 01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:15,120 Speaker 2: going to come into training camp with a lot of 1203 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 2: extra reps under his belt, and that affords the coaching 1204 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:23,880 Speaker 2: staff all the more looks at him in good, bad, 1205 01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:27,200 Speaker 2: or in different situations to know what he brings to 1206 01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:27,680 Speaker 2: the table. 1207 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:32,400 Speaker 4: They've had a lot of chances to watch Elam and 1208 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:35,200 Speaker 4: US fans we have not gotten that many opportunities because 1209 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:36,600 Speaker 4: he hasn't played that much. But when he was on 1210 01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:40,400 Speaker 4: the field, you rode the roller coaster with him. That Pittsburgh. 1211 01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:42,880 Speaker 4: We show highlights every time we start talking about Kye 1212 01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 4: of the Pittsburgh game where he had a penalty and 1213 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:49,200 Speaker 4: then another penalty on the next play and then the 1214 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:52,200 Speaker 4: interception in the end zone. That's kind of the roller 1215 01:01:52,200 --> 01:01:53,160 Speaker 4: coaster we're looking at. 1216 01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:55,480 Speaker 2: But that was after he hadn't played for ten games. 1217 01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:57,800 Speaker 2: He had rested for a game in ten leagues because 1218 01:01:57,800 --> 01:01:58,520 Speaker 2: he was on IR. 1219 01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:02,080 Speaker 4: He came back played really well, and I think you 1220 01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 4: can see where the coaching staff will be with Kaye. 1221 01:02:05,240 --> 01:02:09,440 Speaker 4: They'll say, listen, Kayir, give us, give us the roller 1222 01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:11,240 Speaker 4: coaster without the dips. 1223 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:12,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, smooth it out. 1224 01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:15,440 Speaker 4: Smooth it out, keep the keep the highs, and make 1225 01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 4: the valleys a lot shallower. And where you're going to 1226 01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:20,840 Speaker 4: be a good player, a really good player athletically. 1227 01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:22,920 Speaker 1: Oh, he's off the charts. 1228 01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:25,040 Speaker 4: I mean he's eas elite, he's gonna be He's got 1229 01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:27,480 Speaker 4: it all there. And now the fact that this is 1230 01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 4: going to be his third fourth year, third year, third year, 1231 01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:33,960 Speaker 4: you got to think this is his moment and I 1232 01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:36,360 Speaker 4: think he's going to exploit it. We've been talking about 1233 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 4: him since they made the changes to the defensive staff 1234 01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:41,040 Speaker 4: as being a guy who will benefit from it. 1235 01:02:41,720 --> 01:02:43,160 Speaker 1: So I like where you're at, Jim. 1236 01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:46,760 Speaker 2: From Jim in lockport number one to Jim in lockport 1237 01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:49,120 Speaker 2: number two, What do you got first, Jim? 1238 01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 11: Yeah, this gong in regards to the defense here, because 1239 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,760 Speaker 11: I'm gonna be watching the whole defense, especially Miller. But 1240 01:02:57,960 --> 01:03:01,920 Speaker 11: you have been the gravitch gonna basically take over the 1241 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:05,960 Speaker 11: defense and mc dermott is gonna be just on the 1242 01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 11: sidelines watching. I don't see that happening. So is this 1243 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:12,000 Speaker 11: going to be a conflict with the defense or is 1244 01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:15,160 Speaker 11: mcgrabych is he just gonna you know, had the title 1245 01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:21,360 Speaker 11: It's just concerns me because it really hasn't been directed 1246 01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:24,240 Speaker 11: as what and how and who's going to run the offense. 1247 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:25,640 Speaker 11: I mean, I'm sorry the defense. 1248 01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:28,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, that decision, I think. Yeah, the decision hasn't been 1249 01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:32,200 Speaker 2: made yet, Jim, and I think the reason why is McDermott, 1250 01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:36,960 Speaker 2: as we know, doesn't make decisions quickly. He's very methodical. 1251 01:03:37,480 --> 01:03:41,680 Speaker 2: He's painstaking lee patient in weighing all the factors out 1252 01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:43,720 Speaker 2: in the decision before he makes one, especially one of 1253 01:03:43,720 --> 01:03:46,920 Speaker 2: this magnitude, which, as you've pointed out, is no small potatoes. 1254 01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 2: So I think that the reason a decision hasn't been 1255 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:55,040 Speaker 2: made is because he wants to let Babbage call some 1256 01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:58,240 Speaker 2: preseason games and see how it looks in a real 1257 01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:01,800 Speaker 2: or as close to a real game scenario is possible, 1258 01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:05,040 Speaker 2: and then he'll make his reviews and assessments from there 1259 01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:08,200 Speaker 2: to determine can this guy handle it? Or do I 1260 01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:09,560 Speaker 2: have to do it for another season? 1261 01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:11,360 Speaker 10: Yeah? 1262 01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 11: I agree with that. Yeah, and also too, But like 1263 01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:16,360 Speaker 11: I said, the main guy I'm gonna watch, I'm gonna 1264 01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:19,000 Speaker 11: watch the whole defense in itself, But the main guy 1265 01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:21,880 Speaker 11: is Miller. How they're gonna utilize them? Is he going 1266 01:04:21,960 --> 01:04:23,640 Speaker 11: to perform the way he should or is he going 1267 01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:26,040 Speaker 11: to kind of I'm not gonna say, Babe, that injury, 1268 01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 11: but it's kind of like it looked like it last 1269 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:30,240 Speaker 11: year when he was in there. So I just want 1270 01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:31,720 Speaker 11: to see how he performs. 1271 01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:34,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's as will we all. 1272 01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:36,760 Speaker 4: And we spoke a little bit about Vaughan last segment 1273 01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 4: about what we expect and what you know, what things 1274 01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:42,560 Speaker 4: are factors that are going into his ability or inability 1275 01:04:42,600 --> 01:04:46,120 Speaker 4: to contribute. I think the defensive You're right, there is 1276 01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:48,480 Speaker 4: a concern or at least a question as to how 1277 01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:51,360 Speaker 4: it's gonna go. Bob Babbitch is going to be the 1278 01:04:51,360 --> 01:04:54,480 Speaker 4: defensive coordinator who's going to step in and probably install 1279 01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:58,520 Speaker 4: the defenses, lead the defensive team. Meeting McDermott will probably 1280 01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 4: be is going to have a voice in the defensive room. 1281 01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:04,840 Speaker 4: You're silly if you don't, because McDermott is a really, 1282 01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:09,320 Speaker 4: really good defensive coordinator, and so Babbage will use him 1283 01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:14,480 Speaker 4: as a resource and their relationship will cause one or 1284 01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:19,080 Speaker 4: the both of them to flourish in this Now. McDermott famously, 1285 01:05:19,640 --> 01:05:22,880 Speaker 4: at times with Leslie Fraser as defensive coordinator, would take 1286 01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:25,320 Speaker 4: the play sheet away from him and start calling him himself, 1287 01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:28,120 Speaker 4: and at times it was perceived maybe that they had 1288 01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 4: some tension in their relationship. I don't know that that 1289 01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:33,200 Speaker 4: was real, but there's no question Sean McDermott felt more 1290 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:36,480 Speaker 4: comfortable with the play sheet in his hand in certain situations. 1291 01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:40,080 Speaker 4: Whether that continues with Bob Babbitch or not remains to 1292 01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:42,840 Speaker 4: be seen, and whether McDermott says, you know what, I 1293 01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:45,160 Speaker 4: liked doing it last year. I felt like it worked better. 1294 01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:49,040 Speaker 4: I'm gonna do it for a minute, and I'm gonna 1295 01:05:49,120 --> 01:05:51,200 Speaker 4: let you. I'll let you have this preseason, see how 1296 01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:54,160 Speaker 4: you do. And if it doesn't go swimmingly or if 1297 01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:57,360 Speaker 4: we you know, there's still questions who's gonna do that. 1298 01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:02,240 Speaker 4: McDermott's good at it, so Bob Babbage has to be. 1299 01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:02,760 Speaker 1: Good at it. 1300 01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:05,760 Speaker 4: Otherwise they're doing a disservice to their players. You know 1301 01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:08,920 Speaker 4: what I'm saying. It's not just a foregone conclusion that 1302 01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:11,360 Speaker 4: Bob Babbage just gets it and you can sink or swim. 1303 01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:15,400 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say this. Leslie Fraser, who comes in 1304 01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:19,040 Speaker 2: with as much play calling cachet as anybody when he's 1305 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:23,160 Speaker 2: hired by the Bills, would have stretches of games where 1306 01:06:23,360 --> 01:06:25,640 Speaker 2: McDermott would take the play calling from him and call 1307 01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:28,000 Speaker 2: three or four series. If he didn't like what he 1308 01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:30,400 Speaker 2: was seeing on the field and felt they needed a 1309 01:06:30,520 --> 01:06:33,680 Speaker 2: change up, he would say, I'm calling the next series. 1310 01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:36,280 Speaker 2: I'm gonna call the next one. I'm gonna call the 1311 01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:36,640 Speaker 2: next one. 1312 01:06:36,720 --> 01:06:36,840 Speaker 7: Right. 1313 01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:39,360 Speaker 2: There were stretches a game, sometimes a quarter, a quarter 1314 01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:41,920 Speaker 2: and a half where McDermot would take over the play 1315 01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:46,080 Speaker 2: calling from Leslie Fraser, a thirty year coaching veteran in 1316 01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:51,280 Speaker 2: the league. So, and I completely understand why the process 1317 01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:54,560 Speaker 2: with determining whether Babbage is fit to call plays for 1318 01:06:54,680 --> 01:06:57,160 Speaker 2: this defense is going the way it's going. 1319 01:06:57,400 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm and that's and it's not like Leslie Fraser 1320 01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:03,240 Speaker 4: didn't he liked it. I mean, those guys have have 1321 01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:05,960 Speaker 4: egos and concerns too. So Leslie Fraser said there and 1322 01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:08,720 Speaker 4: he just got it all right, fine, Yes, he'd go 1323 01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:10,760 Speaker 4: to the other end of the benches, stand there and 1324 01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:13,640 Speaker 4: not happy. So there's you know, there's always that going on. 1325 01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:18,480 Speaker 4: That's the dynamic of a coaching staff. And I'll say 1326 01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:22,160 Speaker 4: this too. At time when Leslie Fraser was the coordinator, 1327 01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:26,560 Speaker 4: there were a lot of times when you say they're 1328 01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:28,440 Speaker 4: just not aggressive enough there. 1329 01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:30,320 Speaker 2: They play pretty straight they. 1330 01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:33,520 Speaker 1: Play straight up, and they just never nothing. 1331 01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:37,040 Speaker 4: They never, nobody ever made a play the years when 1332 01:07:37,040 --> 01:07:39,040 Speaker 4: they were at their best, when and like when they 1333 01:07:39,080 --> 01:07:42,240 Speaker 4: went to the playoffs in seventeen their first year here. 1334 01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:45,680 Speaker 4: They got there largely in the first half of the 1335 01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:47,680 Speaker 4: season when they were winning games. They had no business 1336 01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:50,720 Speaker 4: winning because their defense was churning out turnovers like it 1337 01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:57,120 Speaker 4: was their job, which it is, but to make a point, they. 1338 01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:57,840 Speaker 1: Were churning it out. 1339 01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:02,000 Speaker 4: That stopped after Josh's rookie year, and then they weren't 1340 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:05,880 Speaker 4: as effective at getting turnovers like they were in twenty seventeen, 1341 01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:10,640 Speaker 4: and that continued, and so when McDermott took it over 1342 01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:13,480 Speaker 4: last year, we saw exactly what we thought we would see. 1343 01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:17,599 Speaker 4: McDermott was way more aggressive in situational football than Leslie 1344 01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:20,840 Speaker 4: Fridge yeah Blitz, than Leslie Fraser had been, and they 1345 01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:24,559 Speaker 4: went way up in sacks and way up in turnovers 1346 01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:26,040 Speaker 4: from where they had been even though they were a 1347 01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 4: highly ranked team in the years prior. They were much 1348 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:33,639 Speaker 4: more spectacular in last year, with McDermott calling him splash 1349 01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:36,960 Speaker 4: plays than they had been. So Bob Babbage's getting dropped 1350 01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:40,840 Speaker 4: into that six year five years of Leslie Fraser, a 1351 01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:43,519 Speaker 4: year Sean McDermott, and here comes Bob Babbage, and we've 1352 01:08:43,960 --> 01:08:46,719 Speaker 4: now you got a menu of stuff that you're looking 1353 01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:50,360 Speaker 4: at saying, Okay, the level is the level, here's your 1354 01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:53,720 Speaker 4: play calling floor. You got to get there. That's a 1355 01:08:53,760 --> 01:08:55,800 Speaker 4: lot of pressure on Bob babbitte who's never done it. 1356 01:08:57,160 --> 01:09:01,920 Speaker 4: So you're right from Lockport. It is a question we've 1357 01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:04,439 Speaker 4: and that's the first question, one of the first questions 1358 01:09:04,479 --> 01:09:07,160 Speaker 4: Sean McDermott had to deal with when they made these changes. 1359 01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:09,559 Speaker 4: Who's going to call those plays? Yep, And he doesn't 1360 01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:11,760 Speaker 4: have any he doesn't. I don't think they know yet. 1361 01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:14,519 Speaker 2: They have not decided that he wants convincing evidence that 1362 01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:16,840 Speaker 2: that Babbage is fit to do it and do it 1363 01:09:16,880 --> 01:09:18,200 Speaker 2: consistently and effectively. 1364 01:09:18,240 --> 01:09:21,479 Speaker 4: That's not easy, no, because it's and I've said it before, 1365 01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:24,880 Speaker 4: it's art as much as it is science. It's not 1366 01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:30,240 Speaker 4: just analytics and games. It's an art form. And you know, 1367 01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:34,040 Speaker 4: we'll see if if Bob Babbage gets that and what 1368 01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:36,240 Speaker 4: he's like, because you know, the personality of the guy 1369 01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:38,120 Speaker 4: calling the plays comes out in these situations. 1370 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:40,920 Speaker 2: Let's go to Steve on a sale next. What's up, Steve? 1371 01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:44,519 Speaker 12: How you doing, Fellows? I'm a big fan. I have 1372 01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:48,360 Speaker 12: a little bit different question offensively. I was in the 1373 01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:52,479 Speaker 12: news today that I said that the forty nine ers 1374 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:54,559 Speaker 12: don't want to bring him back. What do you think 1375 01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 12: chances that Buffalo makes a play for someone like that 1376 01:09:58,240 --> 01:10:01,519 Speaker 12: and are they able to with the cap and stuff. 1377 01:10:01,560 --> 01:10:03,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, it'd be pretty tough for there to do that, Steve, 1378 01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:05,240 Speaker 2: because Ayuk is the reason. 1379 01:10:05,320 --> 01:10:09,200 Speaker 4: Ayuk's having a problem in San Francisco's money. He ain't 1380 01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:11,400 Speaker 4: gonna play without getting big money, and the Bills are 1381 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:12,840 Speaker 4: not gonna able to pay anybody big money. 1382 01:10:12,880 --> 01:10:15,080 Speaker 2: He wants thirty million a year. They just threw Stefan 1383 01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:19,760 Speaker 2: Diggs overboard, making twenty four and a half, and they're 1384 01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:23,080 Speaker 2: biting the bullet on that contract now. I can't see 1385 01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:24,960 Speaker 2: them taking on that kind of salary, not to mention 1386 01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:27,280 Speaker 2: the fact they only have seven and a half in 1387 01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:30,679 Speaker 2: cap space right now. And Brandon Bean has said before 1388 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,360 Speaker 2: that he very often likes to go into the season 1389 01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:36,479 Speaker 2: with a little bit of a cushion so that in 1390 01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:39,040 Speaker 2: the event there's a rash of injuries they need to 1391 01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:42,240 Speaker 2: sign a player or trade for a player and take 1392 01:10:42,320 --> 01:10:45,840 Speaker 2: on more salary a la Rasul Douglas last year. They 1393 01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:49,280 Speaker 2: have enough space to accommodate themselves to do that, So 1394 01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:51,640 Speaker 2: you're essentially looking at two and a half million in 1395 01:10:51,640 --> 01:10:52,240 Speaker 2: cap space. 1396 01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:57,040 Speaker 4: It's the hoops you have to jump through are so 1397 01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:00,720 Speaker 4: high to conjure a scenario or the bills could be 1398 01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:03,200 Speaker 4: in play would be because here's what would have to happen. 1399 01:11:03,439 --> 01:11:06,960 Speaker 4: You'd have to get Ayuk to say, I'll play for 1400 01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:09,280 Speaker 4: the money. I'm going to play for this year, for 1401 01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:12,760 Speaker 4: this option year if you make it a one year 1402 01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:15,640 Speaker 4: deal and I can get free agent next year, and 1403 01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:17,759 Speaker 4: then I'll come play for you Buffalo. And then Buffalo 1404 01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:20,479 Speaker 4: has got to come up with the cachet to trade 1405 01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:22,719 Speaker 4: for the forty nine ers for Brandon Ayuk? 1406 01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:25,040 Speaker 2: And what are you doing trading for a one year rental? Right, 1407 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:25,959 Speaker 2: you're not doing. 1408 01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:27,719 Speaker 1: That, That's right. That's how you get Ayuk here. 1409 01:11:28,160 --> 01:11:30,240 Speaker 4: You give up You give up a one for a 1410 01:11:30,240 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 4: guy for one year, and you're not gonna do that. 1411 01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:35,280 Speaker 4: It's it's crazy to talk unless the Niners say, well, 1412 01:11:35,320 --> 01:11:37,519 Speaker 4: we don't think even gonna come in and play for us, 1413 01:11:38,200 --> 01:11:40,839 Speaker 4: so we'll get something for him we'll take a fifth 1414 01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:43,840 Speaker 4: for him, and you got to get Ayuk to agree 1415 01:11:43,880 --> 01:11:45,080 Speaker 4: to play it for a one year deal. 1416 01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:47,320 Speaker 2: I don't think he's doing and he's not gonna do it. 1417 01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:50,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, you gotta get a lot of guys to say 1418 01:11:50,320 --> 01:11:52,840 Speaker 4: yes to things they've already said they will not say 1419 01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:53,280 Speaker 4: yes too. 1420 01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:57,599 Speaker 2: Back to the phones and to Mark in Orchard Park. 1421 01:11:57,640 --> 01:11:58,559 Speaker 2: What do you got for his? Mark? 1422 01:12:00,160 --> 01:12:01,800 Speaker 3: Hey, how are you good? 1423 01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:03,479 Speaker 9: Uh? 1424 01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:06,840 Speaker 3: I'm just calling. I don't think we need an individual 1425 01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:10,880 Speaker 3: like you just talked about. I think Chase Claypool is 1426 01:12:10,920 --> 01:12:13,360 Speaker 3: going to be the guy. You know, he's twenty five. 1427 01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:18,439 Speaker 3: I believe, uh, you know, he's averaged about, uh, you know, 1428 01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 3: fifty catches the year. You know, he started at the 1429 01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:26,679 Speaker 3: end of Ben Roethlisberger's career. I think Josh Allen can 1430 01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:31,680 Speaker 3: take total advantage of you know, his type of you know, 1431 01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:38,360 Speaker 3: physical style, the calmness, and I believe that, you know, 1432 01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:41,280 Speaker 3: he's going to be another you know, fifty sixty catches 1433 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:44,000 Speaker 3: And these are the guys that you know the Bills 1434 01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:47,360 Speaker 3: are going after to bring in. I think we're going 1435 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:50,320 Speaker 3: to have the best receiver group that we've seen in 1436 01:12:50,360 --> 01:12:51,080 Speaker 3: a long time. 1437 01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:57,160 Speaker 4: All Right, Mark, Thanks, I'll say this. Fifty catches ain't 1438 01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:57,640 Speaker 4: gonna do it. 1439 01:12:58,800 --> 01:12:59,840 Speaker 1: I ain't. That's not enough. 1440 01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:03,559 Speaker 4: Fifty catcher not gonna be enough for your number two 1441 01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:06,120 Speaker 4: guy or number one guy. If that's what you think 1442 01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:09,559 Speaker 4: he's gonna be, that's not enough. That bar is way 1443 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:12,759 Speaker 4: higher than that, and I don't and Chase Claypool, quite frankly, 1444 01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:15,800 Speaker 4: we've been talking about him a lot. He's in a 1445 01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:18,720 Speaker 4: room full of guys who have every bit the opportunity 1446 01:13:18,800 --> 01:13:23,840 Speaker 4: that he does. He has not earned anything with the 1447 01:13:23,840 --> 01:13:27,960 Speaker 4: Buffalo Bills. He's he's a flyer, certainly, He's got a 1448 01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:29,480 Speaker 4: lot of physical abilities. 1449 01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:33,240 Speaker 1: He's got a lot of stuff that he can say. 1450 01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:35,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, he's a number two draft, two second 1451 01:13:35,920 --> 01:13:37,880 Speaker 4: round draft pick in the National Football League. He's been 1452 01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:42,160 Speaker 4: on three teams already. The question is you got to 1453 01:13:42,160 --> 01:13:44,479 Speaker 4: ask why has he been on three different teams? And 1454 01:13:44,520 --> 01:13:48,360 Speaker 4: he's available now for the price the Bill's paid for 1455 01:13:48,439 --> 01:13:49,840 Speaker 4: him for a one year deal. 1456 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:52,400 Speaker 1: I mean, that's there's. 1457 01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:55,880 Speaker 4: Some questions about Chase Claypool's desire to play every play 1458 01:13:56,400 --> 01:13:59,080 Speaker 4: and his ability to lay it on the line for 1459 01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:05,720 Speaker 4: a team, any team, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Miami, and he's got 1460 01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:08,320 Speaker 4: to answer for the problems that happened in those cities, 1461 01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:11,479 Speaker 4: even if they weren't his fault. But there's stuff on 1462 01:14:11,560 --> 01:14:14,760 Speaker 4: film that makes you question how bad he wants it. 1463 01:14:16,360 --> 01:14:19,160 Speaker 4: Not coming off the ball on plays, not blocking for 1464 01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:24,080 Speaker 4: run plays, totally being disengaged in apparently disengaged in the offense. 1465 01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:28,280 Speaker 4: What happened there is that gonna happen here? Is he 1466 01:14:28,320 --> 01:14:30,479 Speaker 4: gonna play hard enough in the preseason to make the 1467 01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:34,400 Speaker 4: team and then check out because he's already made the team. 1468 01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:36,679 Speaker 4: You know, all those questions got to be answered. 1469 01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:39,640 Speaker 1: Now. He may be aching. 1470 01:14:39,439 --> 01:14:42,639 Speaker 4: For the chance to prove everybody wrong. Good for him, hopefully, 1471 01:14:42,720 --> 01:14:45,800 Speaker 4: hopefully that's the case, But he does have to prove 1472 01:14:45,880 --> 01:14:49,280 Speaker 4: people wrong about what they think about him. That's that's 1473 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:52,920 Speaker 4: his chore in treat in preseason, in meetings, when they 1474 01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:55,479 Speaker 4: talk to him, when they find out who he is 1475 01:14:55,520 --> 01:14:57,760 Speaker 4: and who the essence of Chase Claypool is. Is he 1476 01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:01,160 Speaker 4: a guy that is has a burning desire to play 1477 01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:05,320 Speaker 4: hard for this team through seventeen games plus playoffs? 1478 01:15:05,640 --> 01:15:06,439 Speaker 1: Is he that guy? 1479 01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:09,599 Speaker 2: He's got a reputation that he has to debunk. That's 1480 01:15:09,680 --> 01:15:12,679 Speaker 2: right in training camp and the preseason, plain and simple. 1481 01:15:12,920 --> 01:15:14,960 Speaker 2: And if he can't, you won't be here. 1482 01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:17,160 Speaker 4: It's a simple We said it when we first heard 1483 01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:19,919 Speaker 4: they signed him. This training camp is not a physical 1484 01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:22,360 Speaker 4: challenge for him, it's a personality test. 1485 01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:26,519 Speaker 2: Break time for us here when we return more of 1486 01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:28,680 Speaker 2: your phone calls. Mary and Tonawanda will lead us off 1487 01:15:28,720 --> 01:15:30,639 Speaker 2: as we are asking you who is the one Bills 1488 01:15:30,640 --> 01:15:33,040 Speaker 2: player you have at the top of your list to 1489 01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:35,720 Speaker 2: watch during this year's training camp.

Give us say that one Bill's player at 1495 01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 2: the top of your list you're planning on watching during 1496 01:15:55,920 --> 01:15:59,559 Speaker 2: this year's training camp. Bill's training camp schedule released today. 1497 01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:03,080 Speaker 2: You can check out all the dates, including the return 1498 01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:05,160 Speaker 2: of the Blue and Red at high Mark Stadium at 1499 01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:08,800 Speaker 2: Buffalo bills dot com, including a chance to click on 1500 01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:10,880 Speaker 2: a link and get into the ticket lottery to get 1501 01:16:10,880 --> 01:16:14,799 Speaker 2: a ticket to practice out at Saint John Fisher late July. 1502 01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:18,040 Speaker 2: But back to the phones we go and to Mary 1503 01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:20,200 Speaker 2: in Tonawanda, what do you got First, Mary. 1504 01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:23,439 Speaker 13: Hi, guys, I just have a question or comment about 1505 01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 13: DeMar Hamlin. That's the person I want to watch just 1506 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:29,439 Speaker 13: after cardiac rehab to see if he'll be utilized more 1507 01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:32,000 Speaker 13: and that if he gets his spark from the pre 1508 01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:32,880 Speaker 13: incident back. 1509 01:16:34,080 --> 01:16:38,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think he's in a competition quite frankly, 1510 01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:41,360 Speaker 2: that's what he's looking at. I mean it's basically Taylor 1511 01:16:41,439 --> 01:16:44,160 Speaker 2: Rapp who got re signed, as you know, and then 1512 01:16:44,439 --> 01:16:48,879 Speaker 2: beyond him it's new faces Cole Bishop and Mike Edwards, 1513 01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:51,519 Speaker 2: the veteran free agent who came over from Kansas City. 1514 01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:54,960 Speaker 2: So that is the chief four man competition at the 1515 01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:57,280 Speaker 2: two safety positions. Cam Lewis is a part of it 1516 01:16:57,320 --> 01:16:59,840 Speaker 2: as well, but knowing that he also factors in it, 1517 01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:02,920 Speaker 2: Michael Corner, it's more likely that he kind of plays 1518 01:17:02,920 --> 01:17:06,280 Speaker 2: more of a utility role, So I don't know how 1519 01:17:06,360 --> 01:17:09,120 Speaker 2: much more he would factor into that competition. But Hamlin, 1520 01:17:09,280 --> 01:17:11,720 Speaker 2: that's that's who he's up against, essentially. 1521 01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:14,160 Speaker 4: And Tomorrow has always been a guy who's He's one 1522 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:16,960 Speaker 4: of those players that's very physical. He likes to tackle, 1523 01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:18,360 Speaker 4: he likes to mix it up, he likes to get 1524 01:17:18,360 --> 01:17:20,519 Speaker 4: in the box, he likes to be up there in 1525 01:17:20,640 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 4: the tackling zone and he's and he feels good at it. 1526 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:25,320 Speaker 4: But he's also one of those guys that's not physically gift. 1527 01:17:25,400 --> 01:17:27,760 Speaker 4: He's not a heavy dude. We've all seen him. He's 1528 01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:31,680 Speaker 4: he's a slender dude. Built long, Yeah, he's long. So 1529 01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:35,679 Speaker 4: it worked his own athletics, his own bill. Physical bill 1530 01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:39,080 Speaker 4: works against his style of play. And plus forget, don't 1531 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 4: forget the year. You know he came in and got 1532 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:45,599 Speaker 4: hurt against Cincinnati, he was like he was the third 1533 01:17:45,640 --> 01:17:46,360 Speaker 4: guy to go in. 1534 01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:47,559 Speaker 1: He was like the third starter. 1535 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:49,400 Speaker 2: Michael Hyde was out for the year. 1536 01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:53,599 Speaker 4: Hyde goes out, and then it was, uh, cam Lewis, 1537 01:17:53,720 --> 01:17:54,679 Speaker 4: who was in correct? 1538 01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:56,680 Speaker 1: Is that I'm missing it? Who was the guy? Well, no, 1539 01:17:56,800 --> 01:17:59,120 Speaker 1: I don't who was the second safety? Earth? 1540 01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:03,200 Speaker 2: Well you had Hoyer? No, he missed five games that year. 1541 01:18:03,280 --> 01:18:06,040 Speaker 4: Also, Yeah, my point is, Damar, there was a couple 1542 01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 4: of guys that went in before DeMar was able to start, 1543 01:18:09,520 --> 01:18:13,000 Speaker 4: and so that's he's had to develop his game, even 1544 01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:15,000 Speaker 4: from the point where he was healthy before his injury, 1545 01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 4: to get on the field more regularly. So he's in 1546 01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:20,040 Speaker 4: competition with himself to develop himself into a better player. 1547 01:18:20,360 --> 01:18:22,720 Speaker 4: And now He's also in competition with other players who 1548 01:18:22,720 --> 01:18:24,720 Speaker 4: are getting in this case a lot of their first 1549 01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:28,400 Speaker 4: shots at making the Buffalo Bills. He'll have an he'll 1550 01:18:28,439 --> 01:18:32,600 Speaker 4: have a leg up in the defense and his experience 1551 01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:35,960 Speaker 4: in this system. So you look at Cole Bishop, Damar's 1552 01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:38,400 Speaker 4: light years ahead of him and experiencing snaps in this bit, 1553 01:18:38,479 --> 01:18:42,519 Speaker 4: in this defense. But for other guys like Mike Edwards, 1554 01:18:43,240 --> 01:18:45,400 Speaker 4: you know there's a guy with some chops of his 1555 01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:48,400 Speaker 4: own in the NFL. So Damar's in a competitions. He's 1556 01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:50,559 Speaker 4: throw him into the pool of guys and they're gonna 1557 01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:52,519 Speaker 4: pull out the best guy. But that's what Damar is 1558 01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:56,080 Speaker 4: up against. He's got to develop himself into a better player, 1559 01:18:56,560 --> 01:18:58,800 Speaker 4: even from the old Bills team. Although you know with 1560 01:18:58,880 --> 01:19:00,800 Speaker 4: Poyer and Hide, there is kind of a roadblide, there's 1561 01:19:00,840 --> 01:19:03,000 Speaker 4: a low ceiling. You know you're not going to go 1562 01:19:03,080 --> 01:19:07,799 Speaker 4: very far. But that's where he's at in a competition, certainly. 1563 01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:11,120 Speaker 4: I mean there's a lot of love and respecting for 1564 01:19:11,240 --> 01:19:13,559 Speaker 4: tomorrow around the locker room, in and the coaching staff 1565 01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:16,760 Speaker 4: and in the players. So he's going to get every 1566 01:19:16,760 --> 01:19:18,280 Speaker 4: benefit of the doubt, for sure. 1567 01:19:18,840 --> 01:19:21,200 Speaker 2: Let's check out some of the comments you've submitted to 1568 01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:24,320 Speaker 2: this point on the tweet sheet, which is brought to 1569 01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:27,240 Speaker 2: you by Corgan Moving Systems, the official equipment moving company 1570 01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:30,439 Speaker 2: in the Buffalo Bills player. You're watching a training camp, 1571 01:19:30,479 --> 01:19:32,840 Speaker 2: Andrews says, dalton kin kid. I want to see how 1572 01:19:32,840 --> 01:19:35,840 Speaker 2: far he's progressed since last season. I mean, that guy 1573 01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:39,160 Speaker 2: looked pretty ready from the jump last year. Set a 1574 01:19:39,200 --> 01:19:41,720 Speaker 2: team record for receptions by a tight end in a 1575 01:19:41,760 --> 01:19:45,479 Speaker 2: season with seventy three, finished eighth in the league in 1576 01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:49,840 Speaker 2: tight end receptions, behind some pretty big names. And it 1577 01:19:49,840 --> 01:19:52,400 Speaker 2: wouldn't shock me if he's your number one player in 1578 01:19:52,520 --> 01:19:55,960 Speaker 2: targets this coming season. And the other reason I say 1579 01:19:55,960 --> 01:19:59,320 Speaker 2: that is because he and Shakira are the two guys 1580 01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:04,479 Speaker 2: with the most on field chemistry. I mean, you put 1581 01:20:04,520 --> 01:20:07,559 Speaker 2: knocks in that mix, too, but most on field chemistry 1582 01:20:07,560 --> 01:20:11,080 Speaker 2: with Josh. Everybody else in the receiving corps is new essentially, 1583 01:20:11,160 --> 01:20:13,400 Speaker 2: so there's that working for him. And then the only 1584 01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:15,120 Speaker 2: guy that had more targets than him on the roster 1585 01:20:15,200 --> 01:20:17,880 Speaker 2: isn't here anymore, Stefan Dicks. He was second on the 1586 01:20:17,920 --> 01:20:19,519 Speaker 2: team in targets last year as a. 1587 01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:23,760 Speaker 1: Rookie, and he got off to a really slow start. Remember, Yeah, 1588 01:20:23,800 --> 01:20:24,240 Speaker 1: he wasn't. 1589 01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:26,320 Speaker 2: He didn't really kick it in gear until like week seven. 1590 01:20:26,400 --> 01:20:26,840 Speaker 1: That's right. 1591 01:20:27,080 --> 01:20:29,040 Speaker 4: He took like a month and a half off before 1592 01:20:29,040 --> 01:20:31,840 Speaker 4: he actually got on the field and started contributing regularly. 1593 01:20:33,080 --> 01:20:35,080 Speaker 1: So I'm I'm kind of with you on that. 1594 01:20:35,280 --> 01:20:37,920 Speaker 4: Kincaid has got a chance to really use something special 1595 01:20:38,479 --> 01:20:40,720 Speaker 4: and put together a very nice season as a tight 1596 01:20:40,840 --> 01:20:42,839 Speaker 4: end for the Bills in this offense, in this spot, 1597 01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:46,040 Speaker 4: at this moment in history of where the offense is 1598 01:20:46,080 --> 01:20:48,800 Speaker 4: and the personnel changes. I mean, I think he might 1599 01:20:48,880 --> 01:20:52,479 Speaker 4: be Certainly some of it was none of his own doing, 1600 01:20:53,120 --> 01:20:55,000 Speaker 4: but man, oh man, he's on the he looks like 1601 01:20:55,040 --> 01:20:58,519 Speaker 4: he's on the precipice of being, you know, having a 1602 01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:00,639 Speaker 4: really good year, really good year. 1603 01:21:00,840 --> 01:21:04,960 Speaker 2: Dan on the tweets sheet says, Tyler Bass kicking is kicking. 1604 01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:08,280 Speaker 2: Either you have it or you don't. So Dan's still 1605 01:21:08,320 --> 01:21:09,879 Speaker 2: smarting from that missing the playoffs. 1606 01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:12,720 Speaker 4: Well, here's the thing, Dan, we've seen Tyler Bass. He's 1607 01:21:12,760 --> 01:21:16,000 Speaker 4: got it, and a lot of people believe he lost it. 1608 01:21:16,120 --> 01:21:17,840 Speaker 4: Did he lose it for good? Or is he can 1609 01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:18,479 Speaker 4: he get it back? 1610 01:21:18,720 --> 01:21:20,800 Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean that's I'd be inclined to think he 1611 01:21:20,800 --> 01:21:24,240 Speaker 2: can get it back. Because absolutely far outweigh the bad. 1612 01:21:24,400 --> 01:21:27,880 Speaker 4: Absolutely, he can get it back. We've seen that from 1613 01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:30,800 Speaker 4: every player at every position throughout not every player, but 1614 01:21:31,040 --> 01:21:33,880 Speaker 4: every position throughout history has had guys who have lost 1615 01:21:33,880 --> 01:21:36,680 Speaker 4: it and gotten it back. So Tyler Bass is not 1616 01:21:36,720 --> 01:21:38,360 Speaker 4: going to be you know, and I'm not saying he 1617 01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:42,160 Speaker 4: even lost it last year. We had conversations about what 1618 01:21:42,240 --> 01:21:44,360 Speaker 4: Tyler Bass was going through all season last year. I 1619 01:21:44,400 --> 01:21:47,400 Speaker 4: mean they're changing people around him. His holder, the kicker, 1620 01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:50,240 Speaker 4: then the punter who's an integral part of what he does, 1621 01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:53,479 Speaker 4: has got a you know, it's got a factor into that. 1622 01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:59,439 Speaker 4: We'll see, but yes, I would agree. Yeah, Tyler, for 1623 01:21:59,479 --> 01:22:01,519 Speaker 4: a lot of Bill Fans, has something to prove this year. 1624 01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:04,320 Speaker 2: I really wouldn't be surprised if he has maybe his 1625 01:22:04,400 --> 01:22:06,479 Speaker 2: best season in a Bill's uniform this year because I 1626 01:22:06,479 --> 01:22:08,840 Speaker 2: think it. I think how last year ended sticks with 1627 01:22:08,920 --> 01:22:12,400 Speaker 2: him too, and I think he's using that as fuel 1628 01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:14,479 Speaker 2: right now for this coming season. 1629 01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 1: I agree wholeheartedly. 1630 01:22:16,400 --> 01:22:21,120 Speaker 4: I've spoken with him, and yeah, I think he's he's 1631 01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:23,800 Speaker 4: going to dial it in. I'm fully confident of that. 1632 01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:26,559 Speaker 2: Tiffany on the tweets, she says, I'm hopeful to see 1633 01:22:26,640 --> 01:22:29,320 Speaker 2: von Miller return to the disruptive force he was prior 1634 01:22:29,320 --> 01:22:32,639 Speaker 2: to injuring his knee. His ability to pressure opposing quarterbacks 1635 01:22:32,720 --> 01:22:36,639 Speaker 2: was greatly missed, especially against the Chiefs in the playoffs. Yeah, 1636 01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:38,840 Speaker 2: and you know, the fact that Leonard Floyd wasn't one 1637 01:22:38,920 --> 01:22:43,559 Speaker 2: hundred percent didn't help. You know, Terrell Bernard didn't play 1638 01:22:43,560 --> 01:22:47,360 Speaker 2: in the game, he was out injured, Rasuell Douglas playing 1639 01:22:47,360 --> 01:22:50,240 Speaker 2: on one leg after getting injured in the Miami game 1640 01:22:50,240 --> 01:22:51,040 Speaker 2: two weeks prior. 1641 01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:53,519 Speaker 1: The other linebacker spot was rotation. 1642 01:22:53,800 --> 01:22:57,120 Speaker 2: Tyrrell Dobson wasn't one hundred percent, So it was just 1643 01:22:57,439 --> 01:23:00,599 Speaker 2: a bad litany of injuries at the worst possible time. Yeah, 1644 01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:05,200 Speaker 2: that contributed as well. Connor says Cole Bishop. I want 1645 01:23:05,200 --> 01:23:06,880 Speaker 2: to see if he can grab a starting job from 1646 01:23:06,880 --> 01:23:09,200 Speaker 2: either Wrapp or Edwards. I honestly really liked the idea 1647 01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:12,439 Speaker 2: of having Bishop and rapped together on the back end, 1648 01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:15,920 Speaker 2: and this should not go by the board either. Mike 1649 01:23:16,040 --> 01:23:18,479 Speaker 2: Edwards had a shoulder injury, missed about four weeks of 1650 01:23:18,479 --> 01:23:22,640 Speaker 2: spring practices. That afforded DeMar Hamlin and Cole Bishop a 1651 01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:24,960 Speaker 2: whole lot more reps than they probably would have gotten 1652 01:23:24,960 --> 01:23:26,240 Speaker 2: had Mike Edwards been healthy. 1653 01:23:26,400 --> 01:23:28,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, because Mike Edwards, being a new player on the team, 1654 01:23:28,520 --> 01:23:32,040 Speaker 4: would probably get a lot of extra reps just for 1655 01:23:32,120 --> 01:23:36,040 Speaker 4: the mental part of it. So yeah, that's even in 1656 01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:38,160 Speaker 4: the off season. Injuries play a role in who gets 1657 01:23:38,160 --> 01:23:39,600 Speaker 4: snapped and who gets experienced. 1658 01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:43,240 Speaker 2: JJ on the tweets, she says ky r elim he 1659 01:23:43,280 --> 01:23:47,080 Speaker 2: has shown adaptation to the McDermott system to live up 1660 01:23:47,080 --> 01:23:51,320 Speaker 2: to his potential. Second, Jack Browning, can he do enough 1661 01:23:51,320 --> 01:23:55,840 Speaker 2: to replace Sam Martin? Yeah, he's a punter first, but 1662 01:23:55,880 --> 01:23:59,120 Speaker 2: he's done place kicking and kickoffs, but he's chiefly here 1663 01:23:59,600 --> 01:24:03,960 Speaker 2: as Sam Martin's competition. And we know Martin unfortunately had 1664 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:05,760 Speaker 2: his share of ups and downs. I mean, he was 1665 01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:09,040 Speaker 2: Special Teams Player of the Month in December, but in 1666 01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:12,240 Speaker 2: November it got a little rocky for him. But in 1667 01:24:12,280 --> 01:24:15,640 Speaker 2: December he was great. And then he pulls his hamstring 1668 01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:20,160 Speaker 2: chasing after a blocked kick in the Pittsburgh game. And 1669 01:24:20,680 --> 01:24:23,120 Speaker 2: I mean, credit to him for dragging himself out there 1670 01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:26,519 Speaker 2: against the Chiefs. But hard to punt effectively with a 1671 01:24:26,520 --> 01:24:28,720 Speaker 2: pulled hamstring on your non kicking leg because it's your 1672 01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:31,080 Speaker 2: plant leg, all your weights on that leg. 1673 01:24:31,280 --> 01:24:32,160 Speaker 1: Yes, it'll be. 1674 01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:37,720 Speaker 4: It's interesting. Those the old adage is the more you 1675 01:24:37,760 --> 01:24:40,040 Speaker 4: can do, Jack Browning have been a jack of all trades. 1676 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:42,240 Speaker 4: So if you do get somebody snapping a hamstring or 1677 01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:46,840 Speaker 4: pull you know whatever, Tyler Bass tweaking his knee chasing down, 1678 01:24:46,880 --> 01:24:48,960 Speaker 4: and you know you got Jack brown and who can 1679 01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:51,960 Speaker 4: hit extra points? And who can you know do that? 1680 01:24:53,600 --> 01:24:57,360 Speaker 4: Hit a field goal now and again from close. But 1681 01:24:57,400 --> 01:25:00,920 Speaker 4: that's the more you can do, the more val you are. 1682 01:25:01,439 --> 01:25:04,519 Speaker 4: I mean I experienced that in my career. Guys around 1683 01:25:04,600 --> 01:25:08,479 Speaker 4: the league do that. The more things you can do 1684 01:25:08,560 --> 01:25:11,760 Speaker 4: effectively make you more valuable. So a guy like Jack 1685 01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:14,040 Speaker 4: Browning is intriguing, There's no question about it. 1686 01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:18,439 Speaker 2: Jack. On the tweet, she says, Kay Jay Hamler, his 1687 01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:21,320 Speaker 2: career has been sidetracked by injury and illness, but the 1688 01:25:21,400 --> 01:25:24,439 Speaker 2: dude can flat out fly. He was electric at Penn, 1689 01:25:24,479 --> 01:25:26,040 Speaker 2: stayed with the ball in his hands, and was a 1690 01:25:26,080 --> 01:25:28,360 Speaker 2: high pick. Yes, he was a second round draft choice. 1691 01:25:28,479 --> 01:25:31,120 Speaker 2: If he can recapture any of that, he could be 1692 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:34,799 Speaker 2: a sneaky good weapon for this offense and as kick returner. 1693 01:25:35,120 --> 01:25:37,599 Speaker 2: Eager to see him in the wide receiver battle. Yeah, 1694 01:25:37,640 --> 01:25:40,400 Speaker 2: and he's not alone Jack. As Steve already mentioned, I 1695 01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:43,640 Speaker 2: think chakese Claypool falls into this category. I think it 1696 01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:46,479 Speaker 2: might be a little too strong to call these guys 1697 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:50,880 Speaker 2: reclamation projects, but they are players of high ability. Both 1698 01:25:50,920 --> 01:25:54,080 Speaker 2: were second round draft choices when they came out of college, 1699 01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:58,040 Speaker 2: and both have had their share of struggles early in 1700 01:25:58,080 --> 01:26:01,240 Speaker 2: their career for various reasons. And the Bills are taking 1701 01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:03,800 Speaker 2: a swing that one of them will hit. I don't 1702 01:26:03,800 --> 01:26:05,479 Speaker 2: think all of them are going to hit, but if 1703 01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:07,639 Speaker 2: you just get one to hit, now your receiving corps 1704 01:26:07,680 --> 01:26:08,479 Speaker 2: is that much deeper. 1705 01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:08,920 Speaker 1: That's right. 1706 01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:13,200 Speaker 4: And you know, kJ Hammler's along the lines of an 1707 01:26:13,280 --> 01:26:15,800 Speaker 4: Isaiah McKenzie and the Deontay Hardy guys that you know 1708 01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:19,800 Speaker 4: of that skill smaller guys who can really fly, who 1709 01:26:19,960 --> 01:26:22,040 Speaker 4: have a skill set like they can return kicks and 1710 01:26:22,040 --> 01:26:26,120 Speaker 4: that kind of thing. The kickoff play and what people 1711 01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:28,120 Speaker 4: are gonna do. We've heard all kinds of wild speculation 1712 01:26:28,160 --> 01:26:29,960 Speaker 4: about how that return guy's going to change, and what 1713 01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:32,320 Speaker 4: his responsibilities will look like, what the play is going 1714 01:26:32,360 --> 01:26:34,120 Speaker 4: to look like, what type of guy you want back there. 1715 01:26:34,160 --> 01:26:36,160 Speaker 4: I think that's still all up in the air. Maybe 1716 01:26:36,160 --> 01:26:38,560 Speaker 4: it'll be guys like Isaiah McKenzie and Deontay Hardy, or 1717 01:26:38,600 --> 01:26:42,800 Speaker 4: maybe it'll be somebody you know, you know, like a 1718 01:26:42,880 --> 01:26:45,240 Speaker 4: running back or a full back back there returning punts. 1719 01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:47,839 Speaker 1: We don't know yet, We'll have to see. 1720 01:26:47,960 --> 01:26:50,400 Speaker 2: And you got the rookie Dae Juon Hardy, you know 1721 01:26:50,439 --> 01:26:53,639 Speaker 2: who's that punt return experience too, So he'll be firmly 1722 01:26:53,640 --> 01:26:55,719 Speaker 2: in the mix. And Andy Isabella is still on this roster. 1723 01:26:55,840 --> 01:26:58,200 Speaker 2: Let's not forget that. Correct got to take a break here. 1724 01:26:58,240 --> 01:27:00,400 Speaker 2: Some final thoughts on the tweetcheet when we were here 1725 01:27:00,439 --> 01:27:02,280 Speaker 2: on One Bill's Live, presented by Colid of Health, It's 1726 01:27:02,280 --> 01:27:06,840 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills Radio. All right, some final thoughts here on 1727 01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:09,599 Speaker 2: One Bill's Live Monday edition. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with 1728 01:27:09,640 --> 01:27:12,120 Speaker 2: you as you're telling us the number one player you're 1729 01:27:12,160 --> 01:27:14,000 Speaker 2: going to have your eye on in training camp. Training 1730 01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:16,800 Speaker 2: camp schedule came out today. Thought it would be appropriate 1731 01:27:16,880 --> 01:27:19,479 Speaker 2: to kind of throw some names out there, Chris on 1732 01:27:19,479 --> 01:27:22,120 Speaker 2: the tweets sheet, says Keon Coleman is the obvious answer, 1733 01:27:22,160 --> 01:27:24,519 Speaker 2: but for sure interested in what Shakiir is going to do. 1734 01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:27,679 Speaker 2: But top of the list is everyone playing the safety position. 1735 01:27:27,800 --> 01:27:30,040 Speaker 2: Got some big shoes to fill back there. How he 1736 01:27:30,120 --> 01:27:32,200 Speaker 2: had seven years of the best tanement football and never 1737 01:27:32,240 --> 01:27:35,000 Speaker 2: won a ring will always amaze me. Yeah, it's it's 1738 01:27:35,000 --> 01:27:37,639 Speaker 2: gonna be one of the more interesting position battles in camp. 1739 01:27:37,680 --> 01:27:41,519 Speaker 2: I think receiver safety are probably the top two. Yeah, 1740 01:27:41,920 --> 01:27:42,559 Speaker 2: there are others. 1741 01:27:42,600 --> 01:27:45,240 Speaker 4: There's so much turnover and most of the players looking 1742 01:27:45,240 --> 01:27:47,920 Speaker 4: to be to replace those who were here are brand 1743 01:27:47,920 --> 01:27:50,679 Speaker 4: new to the team. There's no like you know, Tamar 1744 01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:54,800 Speaker 4: Hamlin is the exception. Taylor Rapp is the exception. But 1745 01:27:54,840 --> 01:27:58,080 Speaker 4: other than that, it's new people. Cole Bishop, Mike Edwards 1746 01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:00,559 Speaker 4: and of course Keon Coleman and the to the bunch 1747 01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:02,880 Speaker 4: at wide receiver. I mean, Khalil Shakie is the only 1748 01:28:02,880 --> 01:28:04,360 Speaker 4: guy left standing from a year ago. 1749 01:28:04,680 --> 01:28:07,040 Speaker 1: That's big. So yeah, and the. 1750 01:28:08,600 --> 01:28:11,719 Speaker 4: Cornerback position as well, all those guys at the skill 1751 01:28:11,760 --> 01:28:12,840 Speaker 4: positions on both sides of. 1752 01:28:12,840 --> 01:28:14,280 Speaker 1: The ball, are you know. 1753 01:28:14,720 --> 01:28:17,400 Speaker 4: I think it's really gonna be a battle and a 1754 01:28:17,439 --> 01:28:19,599 Speaker 4: competition to see who helps Josh Allen win. 1755 01:28:20,160 --> 01:28:23,120 Speaker 2: Kawala, says Curtis Samuel. I know people are expecting a 1756 01:28:23,120 --> 01:28:24,960 Speaker 2: lot from Shakir, but I think Samuel has the best 1757 01:28:24,960 --> 01:28:28,280 Speaker 2: potential to do more production with more opportunities. Shakiro gets 1758 01:28:28,280 --> 01:28:32,040 Speaker 2: effective production with modest opportunities. So here's hoping Samuel can 1759 01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:35,879 Speaker 2: become the best of himself with Josh. Seth says Claypool 1760 01:28:35,960 --> 01:28:37,880 Speaker 2: is the obvious one for me. If that guy plays 1761 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:40,559 Speaker 2: his potential, we may have four guys near a thousand 1762 01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:44,920 Speaker 2: yards him, Shakier, Samuel, and Kincaid. Bill's Banter says Milano 1763 01:28:45,040 --> 01:28:47,000 Speaker 2: needs to show that he's comfortable moving around on the 1764 01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:49,519 Speaker 2: field and around other players before the pads come back on. 1765 01:28:50,720 --> 01:28:54,400 Speaker 2: Sulla says, what's up front is what matters. I watch 1766 01:28:54,520 --> 01:28:57,960 Speaker 2: line play. Offensive line is the heartbeat of any team. 1767 01:28:58,320 --> 01:29:01,479 Speaker 2: Defensive line must dominate. There are gonna be new names 1768 01:29:01,479 --> 01:29:04,280 Speaker 2: on that defensive line, particularly in that second unit that 1769 01:29:04,439 --> 01:29:08,680 Speaker 2: rotates in with a ton of defensive tackles and some 1770 01:29:08,720 --> 01:29:09,400 Speaker 2: of the ends. 1771 01:29:09,280 --> 01:29:11,559 Speaker 4: Along with Von Miller, and everybody's eyes are going to 1772 01:29:11,560 --> 01:29:13,240 Speaker 4: be on Vaughn watching him, and I think more so 1773 01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:15,040 Speaker 4: than anything, people just want to see Vaughn take the 1774 01:29:15,120 --> 01:29:18,280 Speaker 4: quarterback down. All of us have high hopes for that night. 1775 01:29:18,360 --> 01:29:20,439 Speaker 4: I think he's still got some really good football in him. 1776 01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:25,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll be back tomorrow with another edition and we'll 1777 01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:28,040 Speaker 2: have our guests from PFF. George McGinnis. When we see 1778 01:29:28,080 --> 01:29:37,719 Speaker 2: you at one
