00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: I'm not sure yet, yeah, I last, yeah, well about

19
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: ten thirty. Well, let's do it every away game. We

20
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 1: don't have one away game. There's only one left, all right, welcome.

21
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: All right, schedule for next year. So you're ready to

22
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: run right into the last week's game and this week's game.

23
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,119
Speaker 1: But before we get into that, I want to run

24
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: right into last night's game, Savers Hockey. You're an avid

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 1: Savers fan, mister season ticket holder. It could not go

26
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 1: last night, but you were there, And what do you think?

27
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: It was? Really I watched most of it on TV.

28
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: A compelling game to watch. It was really good. It

29
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: was a great game. Yeah. I hope these two teams

30
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: can compete like this for the next ten years. Yeah,

31
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: but the one exactly like this, not exactly like this.

32
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,119
Speaker 1: But I mean they got some good players. I mean, yeah, Austin,

33
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: that Matthews, horses Man, some man. The neelander hasn't even

34
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: got there yet. Yeah so, but sabotage something man. But

35
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: the only upsetting part besides of them losing was man

36
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: having so many Leaf fans in the building. They dominated,

37
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: and they dominated lasting me out. I was almost in

38
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: fighting mood, it was. I mean, the goal Leaf goal

39
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: chant was louder than the Let's go Buffalo. The cheer

40
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: after Toronto goals was louder than it was, louder than anything,

41
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: and I'm like, man, we gotta we gotta squitch this up.

42
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,959
Speaker 1: We can't be doing this talking to who was I

43
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: talking to act Andrew Peters about it? You know, yeah, yeah,

44
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: we got we gotta do something. What do you do?

45
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: I mean to sell their tickets? And yeah, here's the thing.

46
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: The Least Leafs are good and they've always had a

47
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: strong following. And now, i mean, let's facing for decades,

48
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: they ain't had nothing to cheer about, cheer about, so

49
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: now you know it's gonna have a big up. It's

50
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: always been gonna be enough. It's always been. Every time

51
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: I've been to fan a game with the league, it's

52
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: always been. Most is because they can't afford in Toronto tickets.

53
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 1: Toronto taken corporate up there. So yeah, but don't let

54
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: them take our tickets. Sell them for a little bit more,

55
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: make them pay for it, make them actually really pay

56
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: for it. Yeah, you know, on that topic, if you ever,

57
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: there was a discussion once and you guys talked about

58
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: a little bit about Buffalo getting away from the AFC

59
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: East to maybe getting into a division the Bills. I'm

60
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 1: talking about a division with like the Steelers and the

61
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,119
Speaker 1: Bengals and the Browns, and so you have that situation

62
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: where if you got a down year, the fans from

63
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: the other teams can help make up the difference in

64
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: terms of attendance. What would you think of that? Just

65
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: just answer it. It don't matter you come up with

66
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: the questions the ticket I do, I don't listen. Realignment

67
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: is key. I mean, it's cool. But here's the thing.

68
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: The problem with the problem with with realignment is key.

69
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: What the hell does that mean? I mean, it's it's

70
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: one of the things that that I haven't done it

71
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: for a while, and they and they have to do it,

72
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: and they're gonna have to do it in hockey because

73
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: I got a new team coming in. But realign alignment

74
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: on obviously realignment, but the way that the the the

75
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: divisions are set up in football is important because what

76
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: would happen Murph is this if he had to say,

77
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: for instance, he had a division like a Great Lakes Division,

78
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: it was Chicago, Cleveland, Buffalo, Detroit were the four teams

79
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: in it. You would have three of those teams playing

80
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: outdoors and one playing indoors or you could, you know,

81
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: and then it would start to be regionalized football because

82
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: you would play a different brand of football in Buffalo, Cleveland, Chicago,

83
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: and Detroit. Then you would if you had a division

84
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: with Miami, Tampa, Bay, Jacksonville and Carolina, it would be

85
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: a completely different kind of football, would be a different

86
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: kind of football. You already have that. What about the West,

87
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: they're all similar? Climate? You real think climate has anything

88
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: to do with it. I think if you had if

89
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: you had New England, New York, New York stop if

90
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 1: if yeah, because you'd be it would turn into regionalized football.

91
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: And I get it. The attendance would be better, it

92
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: would have been made more since they'd have done that

93
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 1: back in the day when everybody was really trying to

94
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: sell tickets. You know. Now, I think that it's it's

95
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: a different atmosphere. So I don't think alignment like that

96
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 1: for that reason would be beneficial. Okay, another idea for

97
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: somebody to get mad about. Plus, that's all it is. Whatever,

98
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: Can we talk about something else? All right? You want

99
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: to talk about it? I don't know whatever. You asked

100
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: you a pointed question that I came to your defense

101
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: on and I appreciate you neither want to be answered it.

102
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: But that's okay. I just did I don't even know

103
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 1: what he asked ahead. Wow you Yeah, you're mad. You're mad.

104
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: You're mad about the Savers last night. You can't even talk.

105
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: Somebody want to really rip him to some people. But listen,

106
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 1: I'm with you, man. I sat there, I was I

107
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 1: was so bummed when that puck went and then two

108
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: point seven seconds ago, I was bitter. I kind of

109
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: am better still talk to me about this out this game.

110
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 1: What do you see about Josh this last weekend? Because

111
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: everybody's talking. I heard him this morning. They were talking about,

112
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 1: Hey it ever, everybody's talking about he's running too much

113
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: and he's like he's he's and he's setting records for

114
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: rushing and all that. And listen, I think with the guys,

115
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: the way this offense is constructed right now, I mean,

116
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 1: that's kind of way he has to win. I mean,

117
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 1: they cut they cut Calvin Benjamin yesterday, they cut Andre Holmes.

118
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: He's looking at guys out when he drops back, even

119
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: if he's got a little time in the pocket, even

120
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 1: if he's got a little time in the pocket. Yeah,

121
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's anybody running free out there

122
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: in the other end. Plus, you know, a couple of

123
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: plays they got guys not lined up right, They got

124
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,679
Speaker 1: him running the wrong routes. I mean there's some stuff

125
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: going on there. There's a lot of stuff, but he's

126
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 1: kind of off got to overcome. Yeah, there's a lot

127
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 1: of stuff going on with this offense right now. I mean,

128
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 1: like you said, guys lining up, not knowing where to

129
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: line up. I mean, but now you you're in a

130
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 1: situation now where what we got what five fast guys? Yeah,

131
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: welcome to the NFL. Welcome to the NFL. Finally, so

132
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: now and he has a strong on So I think

133
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: now that is starting to fit into his game. Yeah,

134
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: because I think they're gonna take more shots down the field.

135
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: I think what all these guys that they are Sorry,

136
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to Calvin Benjamin didn't work out. They didn't,

137
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: but they didn't work out. I like the swing. It

138
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 1: made sense that the last year when they got him,

139
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: I thought, wow, that's a big plus, big plus. It

140
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: seemed like a really good move. And plus Bean and

141
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott, they and I don't think it's a question.

142
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,119
Speaker 1: You talk to the people around. They saw a different

143
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: Calvin Benjamin when they were in Carolina than they did

144
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: when he got to Cat he was a different guy here,

145
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: and he had a little bit of a knee injury

146
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: last season. He kind of tried to play through, but

147
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: he didn't rebound from it. He wasn't coming back. But

148
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: I'm happy to see where Josh Allen has hit it

149
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: these last four games that they have. I'm excited to

150
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: watch him. Yeah, yeah, forget about that. Yeah. Yeah, he

151
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: runs a lot, but he can run. He can't and

152
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: he should. He's got to. And if you see him now,

153
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: he's not taking any shots. He's not taking any shot.

154
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: It took him back, not yet, but that's going to continue.

155
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: He's not going to try to run over a linebacker

156
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: or defensive back or whatever. He's been smart already, so

157
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: he already has that figured out. Right. You don't want

158
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: to see him playing offense this way a year from now, though,

159
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: don't you want to see you? No, I want to

160
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: see more passing. Yeah, absolutely, I would love to see

161
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: more passing. I would love to see him averaging three

162
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: yards passing a game. Well theoretically, but if you have that,

163
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: you still have him as a running quarterback. I don't

164
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: know why everybody's like, oh, well, he's gonna get hurt. Well,

165
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: if you gotta break free, and you're a running quarterback,

166
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: that's the perfect time to do it. I don't see

167
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: why you would if you don't think Tom Rady would

168
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: like to scramble a little bit more than what he's

169
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: doing right now. Even back then, when you have that escapability,

170
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: use it to your best stability. He has that. I

171
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: mean he was running away from keikoing Alonzo, still harming him,

172
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,439
Speaker 1: doing everything. So that is a weapon that you have

173
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: on this offense. Hey, you're saying it right now. With

174
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens, you know, everybody talked about, well, Jackson's

175
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: not gonna They're average is up in points per game

176
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: three and they're three and old, and they're averaging more

177
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,599
Speaker 1: rushing yards for game. Now, obviously he's gonna have to

178
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,439
Speaker 1: learn to throw the ball a little bit more. But

179
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,319
Speaker 1: I think Josh Allen is way ahead of the on

180
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: all of that. Really, when you're talking about all these

181
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:07,839
Speaker 1: quarterbacks besides Baker Mayfield, who's you know, putting up numbers

182
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: over three hundred, four hundred yards, they're still losing. He's yeah,

183
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: he's like the only guy that you can be like, wow,

184
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: this guy here, he could be a two weeks ago

185
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Baker Mayfield was a high end that they scored

186
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: touchdowns on four out of their first five possessions, right yeah,

187
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 1: and and they were he was lighting it up. Well,

188
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: you know, then he had rode the roller coaster. This

189
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,439
Speaker 1: last week he was down against the Houston Texans. So

190
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: it's a roller coaster. And I keep telling everybody this.

191
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: I said it yesterday. Yeah, we're gonna see that with

192
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 1: Josh too. He's gonna he's gonna drop down again. He'll

193
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: he'll have a game where he makes a bad read

194
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: or doesn't look as good or doesn't you know, he

195
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 1: isn't able to carry the team like he did against Miami.

196
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 1: But still I think an year from now, you hope

197
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,199
Speaker 1: you get what you hope you get too is when

198
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,319
Speaker 1: he Josh Allen runs, it takes him so long to

199
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 1: run next time, he's out of shape like the rest

200
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: of those like he looks like he hasn't run in

201
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: a month because he hasn't had too right but for now,

202
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: but that's what he's going through. If he's competing to

203
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,439
Speaker 1: try and win the play, it means he's gonna have

204
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,199
Speaker 1: to run a little bit. He's gonna have to run

205
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, but this currently this current offense.

206
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: Then when you walked it right into our Twitter poll today,

207
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: I want to get you. Yeah. Well, I'm gonna let

208
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: you know. One goes live Twitter poll. We're three quarters

209
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: of the way through the season, right, four games left?

210
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: Which of the five first round quarterbacks has the brightest

211
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: future at this stage what you've seen so far? Asking

212
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 1: our listeners to respond on Twitter at one Bill's Library

213
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 1: and call us up, let us know what you think

214
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: eight oh three oh five fifty or outside Buffalo toll

215
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: free at one eight eight eight five fifty two five

216
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 1: fifty three quarters of the way through the season, what

217
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: do you think? Which of the five first round quarterbacks

218
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: has the brightest future? Is it Baker Mayfield number one overall?

219
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: Is it? Sam Darnold number three overall? Is it Josh Allen,

220
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: the Bill's own number seven overall? Is it? We had

221
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: to put these two together because you only have room

222
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: for four choices on the Twitter poll? Is it Josh

223
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: Rosen and Lamar Jackson? Twitter things? Twitter limits, Go ahead,

224
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: laugh at our twitterfall. Everybody does not us a real

225
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: true pole? Sure it is, It's kind of sure it

226
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 1: is so On Twitter so far sixty one percent. If

227
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: I responded and say Josh Allen as the brightest future,

228
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: that's a lot. Thirty seven percent say Baker Mayfield, thirty

229
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 1: four percent, two percent say Sam Donald. That's really low,

230
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: I think, and one percent takes the entry Josh Rosen

231
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: and Lamar Jackson. Where would you vote on that? Through? Um, well,

232
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,839
Speaker 1: I really don't know a lot. Because Arizona they play

233
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: out in the West Coast. You don't get to see

234
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 1: Josh Rosen, and you're mostly talking about Lara Fitzgerald when

235
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: you're talking about that team. Anyway, Josh Rosen just beat

236
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,079
Speaker 1: Aaron Aaron Rodger Rodgers, but I still didn't really, I

237
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: don't know. I didn't see it. I haven't seen a

238
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: single snap of it. I'm going I'm going Josh Allen

239
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: really yeah. I mean, I think if I had to

240
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 1: pick one or two one A, one B, It'll be

241
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,719
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield in that In that scenario too, I think

242
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 1: that I think he has he has I think at

243
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: this point more weapons with Jarvis Landry, the big tight

244
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 1: end that they have out there. What was his name,

245
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: uh drisk that's it. Since you're the whole analyst guy

246
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 1: side live guys I got, but I think Josh Allen.

247
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 1: I think him. If you look at the past couple

248
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: of weeks, look at what him and jameson Zay Jones

249
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,319
Speaker 1: have done, They've clicked pretty well. So you add another

250
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: receiver to that right now, you look at this one,

251
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: their wide receiver core that they have a bunch of

252
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: fast guys right, small but fast guys that can run.

253
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: So you you're using his strength now, with his arm

254
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: strength to go down field, maybe a little bit more

255
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,079
Speaker 1: than these last four games. But you know, I'm probably

256
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 1: sitting up here if I was in Cleveland, I probably

257
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: saying Baker Mayfield gearted in Buffalo audience, targeted into Buffalo audiences,

258
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 1: clearly a Buffalo sixty four saint Josh Allen. You wouldn't

259
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 1: get that around the country. I know I wouldn't get that.

260
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: I do. But I do think though, we are starting

261
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 1: to hear and see other people talk about Josh Allen

262
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: because they thought that he wasn't gonna be worth whatever. Yea,

263
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: And I think now you're starting to see that the

264
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,679
Speaker 1: more he plays, the last four games are going to

265
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 1: be key. So a lot of people are starting to

266
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 1: see that. I know the Miami reporters that they say

267
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: something about it. So you're starting to see a lot

268
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: more people say, Okay, well, well maybe we were wrong

269
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: about this guy. Well I know this that the Dolphin

270
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,719
Speaker 1: defenders were talking him up after the game, and that

271
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 1: goes a long way, I think towards like National Riders

272
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 1: and stuff, saying when the defenders are going, wow, that

273
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: guy was, that guy was a difference way. He's a

274
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: difference maker. He's we're gonna look at him for a

275
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: long time. That starts to catch people's attention. And he

276
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: had three hundred and sixty six of the four hundred

277
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: and seventeen yards of offense the Bills put together last week.

278
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, that's and I think, you know, we

279
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: talked about that. What do you notice about And I

280
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 1: saw him do it all. At some point during that

281
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: game against the Dolphins. He stood in the pocket and

282
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: delivered a dart. He went deep, he ran around, bought

283
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: time for a playoff the page. In the passing game,

284
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 1: he found guys scrambling, he kept his eyes off there.

285
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: He did everything that you want to see, a little

286
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,719
Speaker 1: bit of everything that you want to see. But my

287
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: question is what reminds him you of about him, and

288
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,439
Speaker 1: I always of good quarterbacks. I mean, what are some

289
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,599
Speaker 1: good traits you see in him? I always said the

290
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: thing that gets him about him here in Buffalo, he

291
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: reminds me of Jim in this respect. He wants to

292
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: win every play, to do whatever it takes. He's dodging people,

293
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: he's hurtling lineback, he's doing all that stuff you know

294
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: that we saw in the last month and a half.

295
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: But he wants to win every play and he'll do

296
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: whatever it takes. If that reminds me of Jim, I

297
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: think what we don't want him to do is immediately

298
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: see the breakdown at the line of scrimmage and take off.

299
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 1: But I think sometimes it's been where he has seen

300
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: just maybe a guy flashing across his face and then

301
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: he started looking for open space or whatever. I think

302
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: he just needed to take a little bit more time

303
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: and developing that skill or stand in the pocket now protest.

304
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: Now that he threw week against Jacksonville, I still don't

305
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: know how he got that playoff. I know, quick release,

306
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: I mean just to kind of a flick of the arm.

307
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 1: But I would love to see him stay in the

308
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: pocket a little bit more because now you have that

309
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 1: thread of being a running quarterback. So now the defensive linement,

310
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: defensive tackle, they're not gonna be really like, Okay, well

311
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: I can't leave my gap now because this guy can

312
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: get out of it. So um, I just like the

313
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: way things have gone for him. I think Davil has

314
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: really opened up the offense a little bit more, a

315
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: lot more wide receiver package. I think that's why Calvin

316
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 1: Benjamin was released. Now you're gonna see you're probably gonna

317
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: see five wives. Now you can very well possibly see

318
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: that with four wives with Shady. So I'm looking forward

319
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: to it. I think it's a bright future for the

320
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills franchise here in the city of Buffalo. You

321
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: really do. Like a couple of people have said, like, hey,

322
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's arrived. I mean, it showed he showed enough

323
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: in the Miami game and in the subsequent games and

324
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: the improvement in the development that he's gonna be there

325
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: for as you think he's that guy for next whatever

326
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: ten years. They come on play like they did last

327
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks again the Jets, they should pass

328
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: over three hundred yards. That's the type of that's the

329
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: type of improvement that I'm looking for. You beat him

330
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 1: once really bad already, Let's do it another time and

331
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: let's see if Josh Halli can keep that momentum going up.

332
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to it. Yeah right now. Mur Murph

333
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 1: made a great observation before the show. It's the happiest

334
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: four and eight team in the league. It really is.

335
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: Kind of is it feels weird to be this happy

336
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: at four and eight. But I think for the most part,

337
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: not just me and Steve, people are kind of upbeat

338
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 1: about this four and eight team right now. They should

339
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: be six. They should be six and six. They should

340
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: have been huge, they should have been Miami. And then

341
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if you're as happy at six and

342
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: six as Yard at four and eight, because you're kind

343
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: of like, h are we gonna get that? You know

344
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: what I mean, there's a little angst in there because

345
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: you're in the hunt. Yeah, we're still in the hunt

346
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: right right, So, I mean, you know you're not gonna

347
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: get as much in the draft, and are we really

348
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 1: gonna make a run at this? You know, there's six

349
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: and six, there's more question marks in it this one

350
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: right now. It's like, listen, we don't have to worry

351
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 1: about anything except Josh and how let's get better and

352
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: let's get better. That's it. It's weird, that's yeah, it's

353
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: kind of weird. But it's good. I mean, it's not good.

354
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know, I don't know. It's not

355
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: I don't know Matt Barkley or Nate Peterman, but we will.

356
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: Would we'd be this excited if one of those two

357
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: guys were starting the last four games of the season. No. Yeah,

358

371
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 1: a touching, Steve, No, you don't do that on the show. No,

372
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,120
Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. I'm gonna put your hand on your

373
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: buddy if you aren't. Yeah, don't don't be jealous. And

374
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: Holmes released by the Bill today. What did you think

375
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 1: of Calvin Benjamin is season is season and a half year. Well,

376
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 1: you know what I think. When we initially got him

377
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: on the football field, you know, it was like, okay,

378
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: we got a big, big body receiver. You know, he's

379
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 1: known around the league whatever you and you know, and

380
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,439
Speaker 1: then you know, you had the incident with Cam Newton

381
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 1: on the field. I mean so um, you know, he

382
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: scored a touchdown last year and the snow you know,

383
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 1: and I you know, and I thought for sure going

384
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 1: into the last year your contract that I was expecting

385
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: big things that happened. But it never happened from you

386
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: from the from the first game. It never happened against

387
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: the Baltimore. It just never happened after that. And then

388
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 1: I think sometimes you know what I think, you know,

389
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 1: and I hate to say or anything about a player

390
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: about you know, is he not going as hard as

391
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 1: he it's not into it, questioning this effort or whatever.

392
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: I just didn't kind of I just didn't really see

393
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: it from him. And you know what, it could be

394
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: something with him, I don't know, and neither we don't know,

395
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: I mean, but something that got to him that it

396
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,399
Speaker 1: just didn't feel like he was into it. Well, I know,

397
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 1: Matthew Stephen. I read a story in the Athletic website

398
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: today Matthew Fairburn covers the bills for the Athletic and

399
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 1: an interesting perspective on what you just mentioned. And I

400
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 1: mean this wasn't in the article. I would say, because

401
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: of his body type and because of his the way

402
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 1: he runs, it's not ever gonna look like Calvin Benjamin

403
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: is is killing himself to move around exactly right number.

404
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: But he also mentioned, you know, the guy had a

405
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: knee surgery during the offseason, never seemed to recover it

406
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: from that. Just a different respect him. I'm reluctant to

407
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 1: label anyone as a malingerer or a guy who's not

408
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 1: going hard. Certainly, Calvin Benjamin at the time today looked

409
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 1: this year, looked disinterested and I think more than anything,

410
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: Stephen kind of talked about this. I think Sean McDermott

411
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 1: was looking for Calvin Benjamin to be a leader in

412
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 1: that receiving corps and he never really developed into that leader.

413
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: And I think that's really where much of the Bill's

414
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,679
Speaker 1: disillusionment with Benjamin came from. Well, if you look at

415
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: the organization and where instructor where quarterbacks, running backs, there's

416
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 1: a veteran leadership and every single group right there, and

417
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: they wanted him to They wanted him to be that guy.

418
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 1: That's what they traded for him because they saw the

419
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 1: guy in in Carolina for all those years. So something

420
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: there must have say, Okay, let's we need to trade

421
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 1: for this guys because we have young receivers Zay into

422
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 1: the second year, and I think it just didn't translate

423
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: over into him being that leader right in the wide

424
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 1: receiver to the point Steve and I talked about this

425
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: last week. Last week, Sean McDermott was asked about Calvin

426
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 1: as a leader and he immediately started talking about Deontay

427
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 1: Thompson as the leader of that receiving group, which to

428
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 1: me was like a red flat. Yeah, so, um, you know,

429
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: obviously he's a talented guy. I don't know what's going

430
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: to his future. What's in his future for right now?

431
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 1: But I hope, I just hope everything's good for him because,

432
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 1: like I said, the last couple of weeks, man, it

433
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 1: just looked like he's been like out of it. Yeah.

434
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 1: I think people are probably referring to that pass. I

435
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 1: think it was in Miami, like the slat played down

436
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 1: by the goal line. I mean, I don't say short

437
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 1: on it, but it just didn't look like he was

438
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: going online. So I just hope the young man's okay.

439
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: I mean, he got here and you know, his first

440
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: game he wore thirty four Jersey. I just hope the

441
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: young man is okay, and can you know, bounce back

442
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 1: if he wants to play football again. Yeah, Sadly, I

443
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,679
Speaker 1: think we're gonna find out what his true feelings are

444
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 1: if he does sign with another team, he'll we get

445
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: asked about it, and and like he did with Caroline

446
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 1: and Cam Newton, he probably won't pull any punches if

447
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,160
Speaker 1: if he feels he was wronged here, you can bet

448
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,360
Speaker 1: we'll hear about it from him in the months to come,

449
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: and and we'll see we'll find out how he really feels.

450
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: I'm sure that he's been approached already to talk about it,

451
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: because that's the way the world in which we live.

452
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: But by the same token, um, it just just didn't

453
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 1: work out. And Sean McDermott said it right today. He goes, hey,

454
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: it didn't work again, and they felt. You gotta feel

455
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: like they gave him every opportunity. Uh, you gotta feel

456
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: like they put him in a position where they he

457
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 1: could succeed. But it for whatever reason, whether it was him,

458
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 1: whether it was the offense with the rookie quarterback, whether

459
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 1: it was no help on there and no running game,

460
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: offensive line, whatever you want to put it, it didn't work.

461
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: And um, and they're moving on. And I think, if

462
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 1: you're going to take something away from this in a

463
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 1: big picture, this coaching staff and and general manager and

464
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: from him, they they they'd make the move, and they're

465
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,880
Speaker 1: bringing guys in, they're shipping guys out. They are not standing.

466
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,199
Speaker 1: I think there was a turning point in the game

467
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: last year when you go four and eight. It's like, Okay,

468
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 1: here we go. We're gonna find out about some guys now.

469
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 1: So they cut two ride receivers on that this week

470
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,680
Speaker 1: and they said, listen, we're moving on and we're gonna

471
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: go and find out, and I think that's the way

472
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: the season goes the rest of the way. Starvin Thomas,

582
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 1: Thurman came in all fired up. Steve, Well, yeah, everybody's

583
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 1: fired up about the Sabers game last night. It's yeah,

584
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: the ten game winning streak seems like ten months ago.

585
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 1: Now we know who to blame, that's right. Actually, yeah,

586
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: there's some people chiming in on Twitter taking the finger

587
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: off of us, you know not instead of pointing at us,

588
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 1: they're putting the finger right on Chick fil At. As

589
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: soon as Chick fil A opened in the region. Everybody's

590
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: are losing. So so there you go. Maybe it's not us,

591
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 1: Maybe it's not us. It was cast dispersions on somebody else.

592
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: Bills need to get another win streak going. They won

593
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 1: two in a row and then lost last Sunday, and

594
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 1: now they got the Jets coming to town of eminently

595
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,719
Speaker 1: a winnable game coming up Sunday, But the Jets are

596
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: gonna come in fired up. Why they were embarrassed at

597
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: their own joint. They've lost six in a row. I

598
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: think they've been embarrassed for a month. And I'll tell

599
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 1: you what. They showed up ready to play in Nashville

600
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 1: and they couldn't sustain it. But they're still got something

601
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 1: in the tank for the Jets. Don't don't think they

602
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 1: don't go to sleep on the Jets. Let's see what

603
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 1: the players are doing. They're on the practice field inside

604
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: the ad Pro Sports Training Center. That's where I'm in.

605
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 1: Chris Brown standing by to update us on practice. Good afternoon, Chris,

606
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: thanks for joining us. We appreciate it. Yeah, how you

607
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 1: guys doing. Basically, Jason Croom and no go here due

608
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 1: to a groin injury suffered in last week's game, and

609
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: then John Miller limited today, still trying to come back

610
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 1: from that abdominal strain that kept him out of last

611
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: week's game. So we're gonna have to see how he

612
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 1: kind of makes his way through the week, whether he's

613
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 1: back out here for a second straight day tomorrow. Roster

614
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: question for you, Chris. They're at fifty two, right, they

615
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 1: had one open spot after the move yesterday. Yeah, they've

616
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 1: got fifty two on the roster, so they have a

617
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: spot to fill potentially two if they decide to put

618
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: Tarn Johnson on IR also, who just had shoulder surgery today,

619
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 1: So if they decide to ir him as well, that

620
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: could afford him another spot to fill two. Give us

621
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 1: the depth chart at wide receiver, Yeah, I really there isn't.

622
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: I guess there isn't any depth, but I mean, well no,

623
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 1: but I mean obviously, with Benjamin no longer a part

624
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 1: of the equation, you say, who fills that so called

625
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: X receiver role, it'd be interesting to see if they

626
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 1: move Robert Foster over there and have more of a

627
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: true speed player there, which is usually what you've seen

628
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: over the years at split end, at least historically. You know,

629
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: I think Deontay Thompson could get more run at wide receiver.

630
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: He's a player that they like in terms of his

631
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 1: work ethic, in terms of his blocking ability in the

632
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: run game. I think he can be an asset there.

633
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: And he can also still stretch the field. Ray Ray

634
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 1: McLeod is kind of a tough one to figure because

635
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 1: he and Isaiah McKenzie are pretty much coming out of

636
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 1: the same bucket in terms of receiver, body type, skill set,

637
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 1: and quite frankly, McKenzie is faster and quicker than McLeod is.

638
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 1: That's not the same McLoud slow by any means, but

639
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: in comparison to McKenzie, he doesn't quite measure up. So

640
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 1: they only have five receivers, so you have to believe

641
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 1: they're gonna address all of them on Sunday. Who gets

642
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: the opportunities and wear I think is largely going to

643
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: be based on what the game plan looks like. I

644
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 1: know it's early in practice, but I would imagine that

645
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 1: we're going to probably see some different and creative stuff

646
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 1: with the new lookwide receivers, with the new body types,

647
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 1: and particularly as you said, there may be a couple

648
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: of guys, two or three of them that have very

649
00:31:53,960 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 1: similar skill sets. That makes us for some possible abilities

650
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 1: at creativity, and also a problem for the defense is

651
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 1: to choose which one of the guys would be the

652
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 1: number one guy. So I would look for this to

653
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,080
Speaker 1: be a pretty interesting offensive day when you look at

654
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 1: the formations and personnel packages. Yeah, and I mean I

655
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: think the Jets going into this game probably are going

656
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 1: to consider Foster their number one because the guy had

657
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 1: over one hundred yards against them in the first match him,

658
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: So they're gonna probably put their best on him so

659
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 1: as not to give up another long touchdown or another

660
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 1: big play like they did on the first play from

661
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 1: scrimmage back in Week ten when he had a forty

662
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: eight yard catch to get him rolling in one other

663
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 1: one more play and they were in the end zone

664
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 1: and up seven nothing. So he's probably gonna garner the

665
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: most attention, but yeah, there's other guys that could certainly

666
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 1: make plays. Its interesting last week some of the receiver

667
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 1: formations that they set up. I think for the first

668
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 1: time this season, we saw coach Dables stack receivers at

669
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: the line. And I know Steve can probably speak to

670
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: this better than I can, but that can aid in

671
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 1: getting separation because when you run two guys, you know,

672
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: stacked on top of each other, there are decisions that

673
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 1: have to be made by the dbs. So we'll be

674
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 1: interesting to see if that's employed again this week. Yeah,

675
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: and one of the things they do that for as well,

676
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 1: is if you've got guys that struggle against press coverage,

677
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: you know, if you'ven motioned them to get the guy

678
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,959
Speaker 1: off of them in press coverage, or if you stack them,

679
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 1: he give a guy a free release. There's a lot

680
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 1: of reasons for do it, but there's also a lot

681
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 1: of benefit that may or may not be because of

682
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: the jet defense. It might be because of the Bills

683
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,959
Speaker 1: personnel rather than the jet defense, but there's a lot

684
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 1: that goes into that, and I'm looking forward to seeing

685
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 1: how Brian Dable attacks this jet defense for the second

686
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 1: time around. Chris Brown, Bills Insider Buffalo Bills dot Com,

687
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 1: on the line with us from right across the hallway.

688
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: The Bills practice underway. They Wednesday practice, they get set

689
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: to play the New York Jets. Back to Teren Johnson

690
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 1: for a minute, Chris. He's been the Bills nickel defensive

691
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 1: back for the entire season and it done a really

692
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 1: good job at it, getting some high grades for several

693
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 1: games from Pro Football Focus, more than holding up his

694
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: end of the bargain and the number one pass defense

695
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: in the NFL. And it appears and even though McDermott

696
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,399
Speaker 1: didn't say it, it appears that his season is over

697
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 1: right with a shoulder surgery. Update us on Taran Johnson,

698
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: his status and who are the potential replacements for him

699
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,560
Speaker 1: in that Buffalo secondary. Yeah, I mean he's out indefinitely.

700
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: I don't anticipate he's going to be back this year.

701
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 1: There's only four games to play. The playoffs are not

702
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,320
Speaker 1: part of the equation really, so I believe that, you know,

703
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 1: they're just gonna shut him down, and they should. I mean,

704
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 1: he's gotten a ton of time on the field. His

705
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: game really improved as the season went on. I think

706
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:37,720
Speaker 1: he showed a physicality and run support that maybe was unanticipated,

707
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 1: but his coverage skills were there. They knew as much

708
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 1: and I think we got to see that and he

709
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: got to go against a lot of good matchups through

710
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 1: the course of the season. I mean, that guy was

711
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 1: on the field a ton And it was interesting that

712
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: coach McDermott said, I we decided to get him surgery

713
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:57,400
Speaker 1: now because they wanted to make sure he was healthy

714
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 1: for the balance of the off season, namely spring OTAs

715
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: and the like, and doing it now gives him an

716
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,239
Speaker 1: extra month in terms of staying ahead of it with

717
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 1: rehab and recovery, and I think we kind of saw

718
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 1: it going this way. Guys. The last three weeks he

719
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 1: was in a red non contact jersey and practice. It

720
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:20,400
Speaker 1: was a chronic thing whereas shoulders just kept dislocating on

721
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: certain tackles and games he'd have to come out of

722
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 1: the game, get it, pop back in, and then come

723
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 1: back in the game and keep playing. I mean, he

724
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,319
Speaker 1: certainly earned his stripes this year playing hurt since week one.

725
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think they decided with where we are

726
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 1: as a team right now and playoffs not part of

727
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 1: the equation, let's just get his body right for the

728
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 1: off season and the off season it seems to me

729
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,360
Speaker 1: to be critical for him. They can fix that shoulder issue,

730
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,720
Speaker 1: can't they with the very intensive strength and conditioning program

731
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 1: during the off season, right, and you hope surgery can

732
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: correct it first and foremost in terms of structure and integrity. Yeah,

733
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,240
Speaker 1: and then it's strength training and rehabilitation after that. Shoulders

734
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 1: are tricky, and you know, you never really know until

735
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,800
Speaker 1: you get in there to find out the extent of

736
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 1: the damage. So you know, hopefully it's something that can

737
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: be repaired and he can make a full recovery and

738
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: be the same player he's always been. But you never

739
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: do know. Once you get in there. Sometimes you find

740
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 1: more than you anticipated, and you know it can complicate things.

741
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 1: The big thing is who's going to fill that role now?

742
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: And you know Raphael Bush filled in in that role

743
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,760
Speaker 1: for the game that Terren Johnson missed earlier this season,

744
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: didn't go all that well when he had to play

745
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: there on the fly in Week one when he was

746
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,320
Speaker 1: really asked to fill a role that wasn't a strength

747
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 1: like a true nickel, not more of a hybrid safety

748
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,400
Speaker 1: slash linebacker. So I think it's going to depend on

749
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: how they feel about the matchups this week at that

750
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 1: slot receiver as to whether Rafael Bush is only used

751
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 1: in certain package looks. I think a prime candidate for

752
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: this week could be the practice squad call up Denzel Rice,

753
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 1: the cornerback who was called up after Kelvin Benjamin and

754
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 1: Andre Holmes were released. Rice has fifteen NFL games under

755
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,400
Speaker 1: his belt, played with a couple of different teams in

756
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 1: his career, and does have experience at nickel both in

757
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:07,240
Speaker 1: college and early in his career with the Philadelphia Eagles,

758
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 1: So this is a guy that is familiar lining up inside.

759
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,400
Speaker 1: How he can pick everything up with respect to the

760
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,279
Speaker 1: game plan this week and play off the guys around him,

761
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,919
Speaker 1: I think will largely determine whether he sees the bulk

762
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 1: of the load in there this week. Yeah. I think

763
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 1: one of the things about that when he start talking

764
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:27,319
Speaker 1: about you want somebody in there who is a either

765
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,879
Speaker 1: familiar with your defense and can do it and run

766
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 1: it and has been there for a while, or be

767
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,239
Speaker 1: a guy who's done it before with other teams with

768
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 1: some experience, and it won't be the moment won't be

769
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 1: too big for him. And I think Denzel Rice might

770
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: be okay with that on a couple of levels, right

771
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 1: and Jersey number thirty seven for Bill's fans wondering who

772
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,800
Speaker 1: to look for on Sunday. So yeah, I mean hopefully

773
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 1: he's quick on the uptake. You know, he's been here

774
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 1: probably I want to say, about three or four weeks

775
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,800
Speaker 1: now since he was signed to the practice squad, So

776
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 1: hopefully that's afforded him enough time to get a handle

777
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,800
Speaker 1: on this defensive scheme where he can step in and

778
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:06,919
Speaker 1: Coach McDermott said, and again, this is more of why

779
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 1: this is kind of an unsurprising move and seeing Johnson

780
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: get surgery today. You know, first you had the Red

781
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: Dawn contact Jersey, and then coach McDermott revealing today that

782
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,760
Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks they have worked players

783
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 1: in there in the nickel role behind Johnson in an

784
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 1: effort to get some guys up to speed. Chris Brown

785
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 1: joins us from Bill's practice around the field getting set

786
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,520
Speaker 1: for the New York Jets. Last time they played the

787
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 1: Jets just a month ago, Chris the Bill said their

788
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,879
Speaker 1: best and really their only good rushing day of the season,

789
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 1: two hundred twenty yards. I believe it was one thirteen

790
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,439
Speaker 1: four Lashawn McCoy. What's the chance they can do that again,

791
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: or at least something similar to that against the Jets

792
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 1: this week? What do you think? Yeah, I mean, it's

793
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:49,319
Speaker 1: interesting because this is a question I had for coach

794
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 1: McDermott in coffee with the coach that you guys will

795
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: be hearing later. How much does how the first meeting

796
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:57,879
Speaker 1: went down impact how you plan for the second meeting.

797
00:38:57,920 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 1: Obviously you want to stick with what work, but you

798
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,440
Speaker 1: have to know the opponent's going to try to neutralize

799
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 1: that because it worked so well. Against him the first time.

800
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:06,839
Speaker 1: It becomes a little bit of a cat and mouse game,

801
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 1: and I wonder what they choose to do, because in

802
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 1: that first meeting, they used big plays to loosen up

803
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 1: the defense and the running game, you know, by virtue

804
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 1: of that had some more favorable counts in the box.

805
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:25,759
Speaker 1: There were seven men in the box instead of eight.

806
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 1: Kind of backed the safety off because there was a

807
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 1: threat of Robert Foster outside Isaiah McKenzie out flanking a

808
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,760
Speaker 1: defense wide on a jet sweep or an end around.

809
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: So do they go right back to that again this

810
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 1: week or do they choose a completely different approach to

811
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,760
Speaker 1: kind of keep the Jets off guard. It'd be interesting

812
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: to see what they choose to do, you know. I

813
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 1: think one of the interesting things as well is Josh

814
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,880
Speaker 1: Allen has seen these players this defense play against the

815
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 1: guys he's got on his side of the field. I mean, obviously,

816
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 1: Matt Barkley was the quarterback in that first game, and

817
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 1: it was a big question mark with him going in,

818
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:03,240
Speaker 1: but his success. I think when you talk to quarterbacks

819
00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 1: around the league, and I mentioned this yesterday, Brownie, when

820
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,320
Speaker 1: they get a second look at the same defense, it

821
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 1: really goes miles towards their success and picking up a

822
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 1: lot of things about how to play the position. So

823
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 1: I don't know what Josh Allen can pick up from

824
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 1: Matt Barkley playing this defense, but for the first time

825
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 1: in his career, it will be the same defense he's

826
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 1: already seen once in the season, right, and you know,

827
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 1: you obviously go over the first game on tape in

828
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 1: film study in that quarterback room to see how they

829
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: chose to match up with your personnel, you know, and

830
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: the guys you have at your disposal. I think the

831
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 1: one element that's missing is what the Jets choose to

832
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 1: do in terms of a spy, because certainly nobody was

833
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: worried about Matt Barkley running around, but Josh Allen, as

834
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 1: we know, is a much different situation. So I think

835
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:58,560
Speaker 1: the general consensus is that linebacker Darren Lee is going

836
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 1: to be the spy on this week, and he can fly.

837
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:03,800
Speaker 1: I mean he runs a four or four two, or

838
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:05,360
Speaker 1: at least he did at the Combine a couple of

839
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 1: years ago. So it's gonna be interesting to see how

840
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,040
Speaker 1: much they employ the spy and how much they leave

841
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 1: him as a part of their regular coverage package. So

842
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 1: that's the one wrinkle to this meeting, as opposed to

843
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:20,879
Speaker 1: the first one not to mention the fact that Sam

844
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: Darnold's going to play quarterback for them. Chris, last question

845
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:25,279
Speaker 1: for you, and it's about Josh Allen. We asked this

846
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 1: question to our Twitter followers earlier this week. Well, what

847
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:30,400
Speaker 1: about you? What are you looking for? What do you

848
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,359
Speaker 1: want to see from Josh Allen this week? And would

849
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,879
Speaker 1: be as what would be his third consecutive start. Yeah,

850
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I think you just want to continue to

851
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 1: see the steady progress. I think we know he has

852
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: to make more plays from the pocket and you know,

853
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,840
Speaker 1: trust what he sees more often and when he sees it,

854
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: let it go. I think he's made incremental steps in

855
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 1: that area. You want to see him to contintinue to

856
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 1: do that. So that's that's pretty much the aim here.

857
00:41:58,120 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 1: You know, you look at the Jets defense, there are

858
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 1: certainly deficiencies. They just don't seem to be as formidable

859
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 1: upfront as they used to be. You would hope that

860
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 1: would lend to greater success in the run game to

861
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 1: better support Josh, who pretty much had to put the

862
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 1: entire team on his back last week in Miami. You know,

863
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: if that can happen, I think it can afford Josh

864
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 1: more time in the pocket because it's a run game.

865
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 1: Is going to keep that defense honest. One thing I

866
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,040
Speaker 1: want to ask you, Brownie, and the question with Josh

867
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: has always been with his rushing numbers as big as

868
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 1: they are and the runs he's made being as important

869
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,399
Speaker 1: as they were, the concern is always that he pulls

870
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 1: it down too quick, runs too often. How much of

871
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,560
Speaker 1: that is Josh being a young quarterback and running too

872
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 1: much and not standing in the pocket, and how much

873
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 1: of it is dictated by the people around him on

874
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 1: his side of the ball. Maybe his offensive line isn't

875
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: playing as well. He's got two new guards, a new

876
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: center last week. He's got wide receivers who two of

877
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,360
Speaker 1: which they cut this week. I mean a little of

878
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 1: that doesn't fall on Josh Allen running too quick. It

879
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 1: might be running out of necessity because they're just not

880
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 1: that good, right. I think it's I think it's both.

881
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:05,439
Speaker 1: I think it's him still learning on the fly. And yeah,

882
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 1: some changes that are going on week to week, and

883
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: we have more at the wide receiver position, as you mentioned,

884
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 1: so he's got to navigate all of that and still

885
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,520
Speaker 1: try to move his game forward at the same time

886
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,359
Speaker 1: to help this football team win a football game. Chris, Thanks,

887

00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:41,319
Speaker 1: little bit of news. There was news yesterday as well,

914
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,280
Speaker 1: with the release of Calvin Benjamin and Andre Holmes. Today,

915
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott announcing that Aren Johnson, with a shoulder injury,

916
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 1: had surgery today, out indefinitely, as Chris Brown said not

917
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 1: likely that he would return the rest of the season.

918
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 1: Tight End Jason Groom with his groin is not practicing today.

919
00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 1: Limited work today for offensive lineman John Miller with an

920
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,359
Speaker 1: oblique muscle strain that he came up with two games ago,

921
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,440
Speaker 1: and limited work today for quarterback Derek Anderson, still in

922
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:08,680
Speaker 1: concussion protocol. McDermott said likely that Russell Bodeye, who went

923
00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: to I argue, well, not like the year is out,

924
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,800
Speaker 1: but he said Ryan Groy will be the starting center

925
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 1: and Jeremiah Searles, our guests on yesterday's show is the backup,

926
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,480
Speaker 1: but the release of Calvin Benjamin and Andre Holmes that

927
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 1: came yesterday. UM and McDermot talked about that, saying it

928
00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 1: is definitely a chance for some of the young wide

929
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:26,439
Speaker 1: receivers to make an impression. Here's what he had to say.

930
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:30,520
Speaker 1: That's huge. I mean, that's that's that's a that's a

931
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 1: part of it as well. And we've got young young

932
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 1: receivers that have stepped up over the last couple of

933
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:41,279
Speaker 1: weeks and showed some signs of their potential. UM and

934
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 1: flashed probably better said. So our commitment to them is

935
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 1: to give them more opportunities and to see them build

936
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 1: a relationship with Josh, to see them continue to develop.

937
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:55,320
Speaker 1: And that's important as we move forward that we understand

938
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,879
Speaker 1: as we close out this season, one game at a time, UM,

939
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: wherever that takes, that we understand what our young players are,

940
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,279
Speaker 1: who they are, can they develop and are are they

941
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:09,520
Speaker 1: important pieces for us as we move forward as an organization.

942
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: I think Steve McDermott makes a good point and it's yes,

943
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 1: Benjamin has gone. Andre Holmes a valuable special team or

944
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 1: the last couple of years has gone. I think just

945
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 1: as important as the opportunity presented to the young guys,

946
00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:24,759
Speaker 1: the young wide receivers that Sean talked about. Look, they

947
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 1: need some receiving help next year. They're gonna draft some,

948
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,359
Speaker 1: they're gonna sign some free agents. And you would think

949
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:30,839
Speaker 1: of this young group, what did I say? There are

950
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:34,640
Speaker 1: five of them now wide receivers. Deontay Thompson is a veteran,

951
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:36,600
Speaker 1: I think a five year veteran. The rest of them

952
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 1: are either rookies or second year players, right, And of

953
00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 1: that group of four, how many you know, they're all

954
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:45,839
Speaker 1: trying to make the roster next year. And these last

955
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:50,920
Speaker 1: four games I expect really spirited competition starting Sunday for

956
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,239
Speaker 1: maybe two spots on the roster next year at wide

957
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,319
Speaker 1: receiver from some of these young guys, including Zay Jones,

958
00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: who's played pretty well for a couple of weeks now.

959
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:01,160
Speaker 1: And the rest of them, right Isaim and Robert Foster

960
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 1: and Ray Ray McLeod. Those guys are all buying for

961
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:07,160
Speaker 1: jobs next year. Oh yeah, and listen, they got a

962
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:10,440
Speaker 1: huge free agent year coming up this offseason. They've got

963
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 1: ten picks in this next draft this offseason they've got

964
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:19,800
Speaker 1: a number two defense already on the shelf, so you know,

965
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 1: every spot on offense is gonna get looked at with

966
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,799
Speaker 1: a microscope and say, listen, are we gonna upgrade here

967
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:29,480
Speaker 1: or not? You know, that's that's where the focus is

968
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,440
Speaker 1: going to be. Certainly they're gonna be they're gonna go

969
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:33,560
Speaker 1: after some depth. And they made and they're gonna lose

970
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:37,280
Speaker 1: a couple of players probably to free agency or two injury,

971
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:40,360
Speaker 1: it to whatever. They're gonna go for depth on defense,

972
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:45,280
Speaker 1: and they're gonna go for frontline players and everybody on offense.

973
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:49,320
Speaker 1: And if you're I mean, you're you're right. If everybody's

974
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,560
Speaker 1: on notice, it's a four and eight team. And he

975
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:53,879
Speaker 1: got a number two defense in the National Football League,

976
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,080
Speaker 1: and that that puts a target on every roster spot

977
00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 1: on the offensive side of the ball. And these young

978
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 1: guys who have come out and seeing this offense struggle,

979
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 1: they've got to get on top of the guys like

980
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:07,440
Speaker 1: Ray Ray McLeod and Isaiah McKenzie, Deontay Thompson who's been

981
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,520
Speaker 1: around for a while, but Zay Jones and Robert Foster,

982
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 1: those guys have been afforded an opportunity here that can't

983
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 1: they can't be overlooked. I mean, this is a chance

984
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 1: for them to solidify a spot as an NFL player

985
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 1: and from for those guys they're on their first content.

986
00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 1: Those guys listen the big the big brass ring in

987
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 1: the NFL Murphy. You know this. It's getting to that

988
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:30,360
Speaker 1: second contract, you know what I mean. That's something the

989
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,160
Speaker 1: Bill's organization hasn't been able to do very much. They

990
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,440
Speaker 1: don't have very many guys on their roster that are

991
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:38,920
Speaker 1: getting into their second contract. And that's something that Brandon

992
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 1: Bean and Sean McDermott have said. You know, that's something

993
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 1: that most good teams have. They've got a slew of

994
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:47,759
Speaker 1: guys who have gotten into that second contract. And for

995
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 1: players individually, and I know this speaking for myself as

996
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:56,080
Speaker 1: a veteran NFL player, that's the life changer. Second. The

997
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:59,280
Speaker 1: second contract is the one that changes your life forever.

998
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,000
Speaker 1: That's what players are getting for and that getting towards

999
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:06,160
Speaker 1: and that's what these young receivers are and looking to do. Hey,

1000
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 1: we got a real, we think interesting Twitter poll, although

1004
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,279
Speaker 1: against Josh Allen, don Old being the question mark, right.

1005
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 1: We think the Jets are going with him. They're gonna

1006
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 1: play against each other for the first time this Sunday

1015
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,880
Speaker 1: percent of you say Josh Allen has the brightest future. Okay,

1016
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:50,319
Speaker 1: that's a little bit of the hometown. Yeah, a little

1017
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,440
Speaker 1: home cooking. Yeah. Two thirds really well. Plus given the

1018
00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:55,520
Speaker 1: week that we're coming off of, you played well, thirty

1019
00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:58,960
Speaker 1: two percent say Baker Mayfield. Sam Darnold only two percent.

1020
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 1: That kind of s me a little bit. One percent.

1021
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:02,880
Speaker 1: We have to lump him together because we only have

1022
00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,759
Speaker 1: room for four and Twitter. Josh Rosen, Lamar Jackson. I

1023
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:07,759
Speaker 1: think Sam Arnold is low. I think he is kind

1024
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 1: of a bright future, hasn't demonstrated it consistently yet, hasn't

1025
00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:13,560
Speaker 1: played in a couple of weeks because of a because

1026
00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: of an injury, a foot injury. But this is gonna

1027
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:17,080

1064
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:22,279
Speaker 1: coach Jay Gruden says the Redskins discussed Colin Kaepernick, but

1065
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,240
Speaker 1: opted against pursuing him as they look for quarterbacks because

1066
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 1: he believes they'd have to change too much of their offense.

1067
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,439
Speaker 1: Buffalo Sabers, now with a four game losing streak, off today,

1068

1084
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:19,600
Speaker 1: Longtime sportswriter, NFL expert Peter King on the line with us. Hello, Peter,

1085
00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:21,840
Speaker 1: John Murphy and Steve here in Buffalo. Thanks for joining us.

1086
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:24,759
Speaker 1: What's up, John, How are you high? Steve? Hey, Pete,

1087
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,520
Speaker 1: We're doing okay. Hey, let me start right in and

1088
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,319
Speaker 1: get your thought take on what is our Twitter pollo

1089
00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:32,400
Speaker 1: the day because we like it. We like we're not

1090
00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 1: a shame to self promote. We're seventy five percent of

1091
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:38,880
Speaker 1: the way through the twenty eighteen season. We got a

1092
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:40,719
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback here. There were five of them in the

1093
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,399
Speaker 1: first round, which at this point, and I know there's

1094
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:44,960
Speaker 1: still a quarter of the season left to go, but

1095
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,759
Speaker 1: at this point, which of the five first round rookie

1096
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 1: quarterbacks you think has the brightest future? Baker Mayfield? You why, well,

1097
00:53:56,160 --> 00:54:01,880
Speaker 1: I think that. You know, I think he came into

1098
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:08,440
Speaker 1: the NFL with the brightest future, and not just because

1099
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:11,400
Speaker 1: he was the first pick in the draft. It's because

1100
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 1: I think he had the best combination of mobility, ability

1101
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: to throw down field, ability to lead a team, accuracy.

1102
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:26,919
Speaker 1: And I think much of that has played out since

1103
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 1: he's been playing now the last two weeks. Obviously Josh

1104
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:35,920
Speaker 1: Allen is making leaps and strides to catch him, but

1105
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:39,600
Speaker 1: you know, it's a long haul deal, and I think

1106
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:43,080
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's got a chance to be really, really good also,

1107
00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:48,279
Speaker 1: And you know, it's amazing. Nobody thought we'd be talking

1108
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:52,200
Speaker 1: about Lamar Jackson in this Dame, but so he's on

1109
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:54,680
Speaker 1: a playoff contender in the He's won three in a row,

1110
00:54:55,520 --> 00:55:01,520
Speaker 1: so it looks like in all three situations, and you know,

1111
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:06,560
Speaker 1: you can't really tell Darnald yet because of you know,

1112
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:10,839
Speaker 1: because clearly of what you know, he's been hurt too much.

1113
00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:14,920
Speaker 1: But and then you know, Josh Rosen just went in

1114
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,279
Speaker 1: and won a game at lambeau Field. So I think

1115
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:22,080
Speaker 1: everybody who has taken a quarterback in the first round,

1116
00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:26,799
Speaker 1: either right now or at certain points of this year,

1117
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,719
Speaker 1: has to feel like we made the right call. Yeah,

1118
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:32,400
Speaker 1: I think the wild card in the whole thing. And

1119
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:34,960
Speaker 1: the surprise is that Lamar Jackson has come in gone

1120
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:37,400
Speaker 1: three and ozero and he has run a lot, no

1121
00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:41,080
Speaker 1: question about it. But he's also made some really quality throws.

1122
00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,200
Speaker 1: He of the five guys that were taking in the

1123
00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 1: first round, probably went to the best team obviously was

1124
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,319
Speaker 1: taking the last pick of the of the first round

1125
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:52,439
Speaker 1: or the last quarterback. He's late in the first round.

1126
00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:55,120
Speaker 1: He was the last one of the five taken, so

1127
00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,360
Speaker 1: he did probably go to the best team in the

1128
00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 1: standings a year ago, and certainly the Ravens are in

1129
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 1: the playoff hunts, so he should have the most success,

1130
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:09,400
Speaker 1: I guess on the field. But nevertheless, he's also playing

1131
00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:14,719
Speaker 1: really well. Yeah, I mean, I think some of that

1132
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:19,239
Speaker 1: is due to the fact that until Sunday, I mean,

1133
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:24,879
Speaker 1: he had beaten Cincinnati and Oakland at home, and those

1134
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 1: certainly are not the most challenging teams in the league

1135
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:32,120
Speaker 1: with the most challenging defenses. But he went on the

1136
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:37,279
Speaker 1: road to Atlanta on Sunday and played better I think

1137
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 1: than he had his first two weeks against you know,

1138
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:45,680
Speaker 1: I don't know whatever you'd call him the twelve fourteen

1139
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:49,560
Speaker 1: sixteen team in the league and to win a road

1140
00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:54,120
Speaker 1: game when that game was hugely important for Atlanta's playoff hopes.

1141
00:56:55,040 --> 00:57:00,920
Speaker 1: I think that then made John Harbaugh say, hey, you know,

1142
00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:06,640
Speaker 1: even though right now we would uh, we're not we're

1143
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:09,200
Speaker 1: not positive who our quarterback is for the rest of

1144
00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:13,839
Speaker 1: this year, he made John Harbaugh now think that, hey,

1145
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:15,600
Speaker 1: we got to stick with a hot hand. And that

1146
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:19,240
Speaker 1: plus the fact Steve, I think you know this, I mean,

1147
00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:24,920
Speaker 1: this is a this is a turnover business in and

1148
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:27,120
Speaker 1: and sort of what I what I mean by that

1149
00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:30,960
Speaker 1: is that it's not like anybody in that locker room

1150
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:35,920
Speaker 1: you know, doesn't like Joe Flacco. But I do believe

1151
00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 1: that when you've got guys in that in that locker room,

1152
00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,480
Speaker 1: probably seventy percent of the team you know, has gotten

1153
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,000
Speaker 1: there in the last three years. It's a young group.

1154
00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:52,120
Speaker 1: Most teams are young groups. And so you look at

1155
00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:55,880
Speaker 1: that and you basically say, Okay, you know, you had

1156
00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:58,240
Speaker 1: a bunch of guys on this team who you know,

1157
00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:03,280
Speaker 1: I'm I'm told really like this kid. He's a very

1158
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 1: very humble guy, and he's become a very popular guy

1159
00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:11,480
Speaker 1: in that locker room. So I think it would be

1160
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,480
Speaker 1: hard for them to go back now. Yeah, and interestingly enough,

1161
00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:17,040
Speaker 1: I mean there's been rumors that John Harbaugh and the

1162
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:19,760
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens will part ways amy acably at the end

1163
00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:22,400
Speaker 1: of the season. Now there's a chance they win that

1164
00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:24,360
Speaker 1: division or get in the playoffs and make a run

1165
00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:28,000
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. How and with Joe Flacco sitting there

1166
00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:31,640
Speaker 1: making twenty five plus million dollars a year, there's a

1167
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:34,000
Speaker 1: lot of things. And Ozzie Newsom is going to step

1168
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:37,480
Speaker 1: back from his duties as general manager. There's a lot

1169
00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:40,840
Speaker 1: of things on the plate at the from at every

1170
00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:44,120
Speaker 1: level the Baltimore Ravens organization. How do you think all

1171
00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:48,760
Speaker 1: of that's going to play out? I think we got

1172
00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:51,880
Speaker 1: to wait to see what the next month brings. Steve don't.

1173
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:55,520
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody really knows now, you know. I

1174
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:58,280
Speaker 1: was told when that news came out about the fact

1175
00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:04,800
Speaker 1: that they they may have a mutually amicable divorce at

1176
00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:08,600
Speaker 1: the end of the year, that that that's going to

1177
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:10,640
Speaker 1: be discussed at the end of the year. It hasn't

1178
00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:14,480
Speaker 1: been determined now, uh so, well, but we'll see what happens.

1179
00:59:14,680 --> 00:59:16,600
Speaker 1: I'm not saying I'm right. I think it was Jason

1180
00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 1: walk On four, who wrote who reported that, Uh, we'll see.

1181
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's I think anything is possible there,

1182
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:28,120
Speaker 1: but I think that's something that probably Steve Bishotti and

1183
00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:30,240
Speaker 1: John Harbaugh will decide at the end of the year.

1184
00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:33,880
Speaker 1: I do know this that if John Harbaugh is on

1185
00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:36,600
Speaker 1: the street, he'll be on the street for about six minutes.

1186
00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:42,520
Speaker 1: I think I think there's a I shouldn't say I

1187
00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:45,840
Speaker 1: know this because I don't know it, but my gut

1188
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:48,520
Speaker 1: feeling is that John Harbaugh could get a job quicker

1189
00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:52,400
Speaker 1: than Michael Party would. So we'll see. Yeah. Peter King

1190
00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:54,600
Speaker 1: is down the line with us NBC Sports Pro Football

1191
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:57,360
Speaker 1: Talk Com on this. He writes Football Morning in America

1192
00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:00,760
Speaker 1: post sent on Pro Football Talk dot Com every month. Hey, Peter,

1193
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:02,800
Speaker 1: I just want to get I know, you know we

1194
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:05,400
Speaker 1: can't just talk about the bills, but I just wondered

1195
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:08,600
Speaker 1: your thoughts about Josh Allen and his his performance since

1196
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,200
Speaker 1: he's returned to the starting lineup. Some of us wonder

1197
01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:13,920
Speaker 1: if this is a sustainable way to play offense. It

1198
01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:15,680
Speaker 1: doesn't appear that it would be having him run the

1199
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:19,120
Speaker 1: ball that much. What do you think I would agree?

1200
01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:23,880
Speaker 1: I don't think I really don't think that that this

1201
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:27,640
Speaker 1: team wants him to, you know, to be winning Newly

1202
01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:31,240
Speaker 1: as much. But I guess I would make this point

1203
01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:36,600
Speaker 1: about it when you look at it, Okay, both sides

1204
01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:42,360
Speaker 1: are feeling each other out, and Josh Allen is trying

1205
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:46,280
Speaker 1: to win a game, you know, when he's when he's

1206
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:49,960
Speaker 1: playing the way you know he's been he's been playing.

1207
01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:55,240
Speaker 1: And and look, I remember sitting there Sunday night and

1208
01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:59,800
Speaker 1: just looking at what has been going on with this team.

1209
01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:04,480
Speaker 1: And I mean, you're not going to have a quarterback

1210
01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:07,080
Speaker 1: who rushes for two hundred and thirty yards or whatever

1211
01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:10,680
Speaker 1: over a two game period or whatever the number is.

1212
01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:16,200
Speaker 1: Nor nor are you going to have a quarterback who

1213
01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:20,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think there's any way possible that

1214
01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:24,479
Speaker 1: he's going to be averaging eleven runs a game over

1215
01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:28,880
Speaker 1: any length of time. In fact, I'm sure that that

1216
01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:33,360
Speaker 1: Brian Dable is pointing out to him this week. Look,

1217
01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:36,760
Speaker 1: come back from your injury. You've thrown the ball. I

1218
01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 1: think he's thrown a fifty two times and run at

1219
01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:42,400
Speaker 1: twenty two times. You know, we need to get that

1220
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 1: to sixty two and ten or you know, and I'm

1221
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 1: making this up. I have no idea what Brian Dabele

1222
01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:50,480
Speaker 1: is saying to him. But but I do believe that

1223
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:55,840
Speaker 1: there's an emphasis with him that you know, you're you're

1224
01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:03,680
Speaker 1: ding the ball, okay, without any question, You're very good

1225
01:02:03,800 --> 01:02:06,720
Speaker 1: running the ball, and there are going to be times

1226
01:02:06,720 --> 01:02:08,160
Speaker 1: that we're going to need you to run the ball.

1227
01:02:08,320 --> 01:02:11,600
Speaker 1: But I don't think it is sustainable, as you say,

1228
01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:13,600
Speaker 1: for him to be running it ten or twelve times

1229
01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,520
Speaker 1: a game. One of the other topics I wanted to

1230
01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:18,800
Speaker 1: get to. You mentioned his name a little bit ago

1231
01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:23,160
Speaker 1: in conjunction with John Harball, Mike McCarthy. Is it a point?

1232
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:27,360
Speaker 1: And you gave a couple of scenarios and reasonings in

1233
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,240
Speaker 1: your article about why the Packers might have made that

1234
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:32,840
Speaker 1: decision at this point with four games to go, you know,

1235
01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:34,960
Speaker 1: get a head coach, get a headstart on the head

1236
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:38,640
Speaker 1: coaching search, maybe give Mike McCarthy a chance to if

1237
01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:40,320
Speaker 1: he's going to land somewhere, to get ahead of it.

1238
01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:44,080
Speaker 1: But now that the dust has settled around the decision

1239
01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:49,160
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers have made, where do they head?

1240
01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:55,520
Speaker 1: I think one of the things that Mark Murphy and

1241
01:02:55,760 --> 01:03:00,560
Speaker 1: Brian Gudacunster going to do. I think they are going

1242
01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:08,000
Speaker 1: to have an exhaustive process, and so I think I'm

1243
01:03:08,040 --> 01:03:10,280
Speaker 1: going to tell you see what this is, how it

1244
01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:15,520
Speaker 1: was explained to me by somebody who knows what's going

1245
01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:22,280
Speaker 1: on there, Okay, and it basically was explained that. Okay.

1246
01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:26,360
Speaker 1: So let's just say, for the sake of arguments, you

1247
01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:29,240
Speaker 1: get to the end of the NFL season, their last

1248
01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:32,840
Speaker 1: game I think is December thirty. I think that's the date.

1249
01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:38,160
Speaker 1: And let's just assume for a second that on December

1250
01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:42,040
Speaker 1: thirty one you give Mike McCarthy a happy New Year

1251
01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:46,360
Speaker 1: by saying you're fired. All right, So at that point,

1252
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:53,240
Speaker 1: December thirty one, January one, two, three, four, right in there, Okay,

1253
01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:58,320
Speaker 1: that's when every team that's going to have an opening Cleveland,

1254
01:03:58,760 --> 01:04:04,520
Speaker 1: Green Bay, Jets, Tampa, maybe Baltimore, I don't know, you know,

1255
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:08,800
Speaker 1: who else, whoever, But that's when they're all going to

1256
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:15,600
Speaker 1: be racing to interview all the usual suspects Josh McDaniels,

1257
01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:19,560
Speaker 1: John to Philippo, uh, you know, maybe dipping into college

1258
01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:24,600
Speaker 1: ranks and interviewing guys there. And I think the Packers

1259
01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:29,680
Speaker 1: whole philosophy is, we don't want to do this like

1260
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:33,320
Speaker 1: we're racing through it. We want to do it like

1261
01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 1: we know we're going to have a coaching change, So

1262
01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:41,480
Speaker 1: let's have a reasonable amount of time to sit there

1263
01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:46,080
Speaker 1: and think and to have a list ready on Monday,

1264
01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:50,600
Speaker 1: December thirty one. We'll have a list ready on December

1265
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:53,760
Speaker 1: thirty one and that and we'll put in our request

1266
01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:57,000
Speaker 1: for who we want to speak to then. But but

1267
01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:59,760
Speaker 1: let's and let's not do it like it's a fire.

1268
01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,360
Speaker 1: Let's not fire Mike McCarthy at eight in the morning

1269
01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:07,120
Speaker 1: and then at nine have an emergency meeting and saying, okay,

1270
01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:10,520
Speaker 1: who are we going to request the opportunity to speak with?

1271
01:05:11,560 --> 01:05:14,720
Speaker 1: Similarly with Mike McCarthy, how would you like to be,

1272
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:18,600
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy where you get fired on New Year's Eve?

1273
01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:26,000
Speaker 1: And on January one, John Dorsey is at your doorstep

1274
01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:28,600
Speaker 1: in Green Bay saying, hey, let's talk about our job.

1275
01:05:29,200 --> 01:05:33,120
Speaker 1: I mean this way, McCarthy gets to have a reasonable

1276
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:35,800
Speaker 1: amount of time to prepare himself too, and to do

1277
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:39,560
Speaker 1: his homework on these jobs. So and plus, would Mike

1278
01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:41,919
Speaker 1: McCarthy really want to be around for the next four

1279
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:44,800
Speaker 1: weeks while every day people are saying, so, Mike, you

1280
01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:48,360
Speaker 1: think you're gonna get fired? It's just it's a It's

1281
01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:51,440
Speaker 1: a much more humane way to do something that you

1282
01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:53,520
Speaker 1: know you're going to do anyway. I, Peter, I have

1283
01:05:53,560 --> 01:05:56,200
Speaker 1: a question about the run up to Sunday's decision though.

1284
01:05:56,720 --> 01:05:59,640
Speaker 1: What happened between Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy. I thought

1285
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:01,760
Speaker 1: it wasn't too long ago when they were kind of

1286
01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:04,320
Speaker 1: on the same page, and then this past offseason they

1287
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:06,760
Speaker 1: let a couple of offensive coaches go Green Bay did

1288
01:06:06,800 --> 01:06:09,360
Speaker 1: and then this which appears to be the ultimate rift

1289
01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:11,760
Speaker 1: between those two who once we're thought to be very

1290
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:13,840
Speaker 1: close Rogers and McCarthy, What do you think happen there?

1291
01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:17,080
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any one thing, and I don't

1292
01:06:17,120 --> 01:06:20,520
Speaker 1: think it's a I don't think it's a huge rift, Okay,

1293
01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:24,240
Speaker 1: And I'm just John, I'm gonna tell you, I'm absolutely

1294
01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:29,320
Speaker 1: guessing because both men have been very close to the

1295
01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:33,360
Speaker 1: vest and you know, I don't think we have a problem.

1296
01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:35,840
Speaker 1: We're very strong willed guys. Blah blah blah blah blah.

1297
01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:42,000
Speaker 1: But it kind of reminds me of a situation where

1298
01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:46,720
Speaker 1: time has just come, it's just run its course, and

1299
01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:52,440
Speaker 1: rather than us have some public battle, Okay, let's make

1300
01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:56,440
Speaker 1: a change now. While we can shake hands and say hey,

1301
01:06:56,520 --> 01:07:01,040
Speaker 1: good luck with your next venture if you ask me. Okay,

1302
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:05,920
Speaker 1: And this is just my thought process knowing Aaron Rodgers

1303
01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 1: and uh and and and knowing the way he is.

1304
01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:15,400
Speaker 1: In my opinion, I think he believes that his team

1305
01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:19,960
Speaker 1: is not as imaginative as some of the other teams

1306
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:24,080
Speaker 1: are that he watches play football. Right now, look at

1307
01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:27,480
Speaker 1: what Matt Nagee did on the last play of the

1308
01:07:27,600 --> 01:07:32,240
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, down seven against the Giants. He were in

1309
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:36,400
Speaker 1: a double reverse and Tarik Cohen the running back through

1310
01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:41,200
Speaker 1: the tying touchdown pass against the totally befuddled Giants defense.

1311
01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:45,200
Speaker 1: And you know, would you ever see the Green Bay

1312
01:07:45,240 --> 01:07:49,040
Speaker 1: Packers do that? I don't think so. This is not

1313
01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:53,440
Speaker 1: being critical of McCarthy. It's simply stating a fact. He

1314
01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:58,280
Speaker 1: does not have the imagination that that that a Matt

1315
01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:02,479
Speaker 1: Nagee has, that an Andy Ree has, that a Sean

1316
01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:06,600
Speaker 1: McVay has, that a Sean Payton has. And I think

1317
01:08:06,720 --> 01:08:10,800
Speaker 1: if you're if you're Aaron Rodgers, you watch games on TV,

1318
01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:13,200
Speaker 1: you watch highlights and say, man, we'd never do that,

1319
01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:18,799
Speaker 1: And that's not anybody's fault. Clearly, the Green Bay Packers

1320
01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:21,519
Speaker 1: have been a very good offense over the years, but

1321
01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:25,200
Speaker 1: I think that it's kind of reached its expiration date.

1322
01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:27,640
Speaker 1: One last question for me, Peter, and has to do

1323
01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:29,880
Speaker 1: with what we've been going along with about Mike McCarthy

1324
01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:32,000
Speaker 1: and the Green Bay Packers. How many teams. I've got

1325
01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:34,680
Speaker 1: seven teams off the top of my head that may

1326
01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:36,920
Speaker 1: or may not be a couple of them definitely are

1327
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:40,080
Speaker 1: looking for a head coach. It starts with New York Jets,

1328
01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:44,080
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns, obviously, the Green Bay Packers, and I've

1329
01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:47,719
Speaker 1: got Arizona and Denver in that as well as Tampa

1330
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:50,280
Speaker 1: Bay in Baltimore. Perhaps Baltimore is a question mark. But

1331
01:08:50,320 --> 01:08:52,320
Speaker 1: there's like seven teams off the top of your head

1332
01:08:52,360 --> 01:08:55,920
Speaker 1: that may be in this race. And there's always that

1333
01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:58,799
Speaker 1: spot where you've got like a John Harbaugh, Mike McCarthy

1334
01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:00,519
Speaker 1: and some of those guys that were head coaches there

1335
01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:03,160
Speaker 1: are going to shuffle to another team perhaps, but we

1336
01:09:03,280 --> 01:09:05,920
Speaker 1: may see a handful of guys that a lot of

1337
01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:08,920
Speaker 1: people don't know about becoming head coaches. And you named

1338
01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:11,040
Speaker 1: a couple of them. Who are some of the guys

1339
01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:13,639
Speaker 1: that people that are not household names that maybe head

1340
01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:16,840
Speaker 1: coaches this next year? Well, First of all, I don't

1341
01:09:16,920 --> 01:09:19,160
Speaker 1: think Arizona is going to make a change, and that

1342
01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:25,280
Speaker 1: even I thought that even before before Sunday's game in

1343
01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:27,920
Speaker 1: Green Bay. I think they're determined to give Steve Wilkes

1344
01:09:27,960 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 1: another year. Um. But as for I mean, this is

1345
01:09:32,400 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 1: this is going to be. In my opinion, there's going

1346
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:42,360
Speaker 1: to be a surprise in terms of a coach that

1347
01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:46,560
Speaker 1: that's going to come out of this. You know, somebody like,

1348
01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:53,080
Speaker 1: for instance, Zach Taylor, Um who's the been the quarterback

1349
01:09:53,160 --> 01:09:57,880
Speaker 1: coach under Sean mcveay. Um in uh with with the

1350
01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:02,599
Speaker 1: Rams now now offensive coordination. But he's a very well

1351
01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:07,719
Speaker 1: respected young coach. If somebody is looking for a McVeigh type,

1352
01:10:08,160 --> 01:10:11,040
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised at least to get an interview

1353
01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:15,519
Speaker 1: a guy named Press Taylor who's only thirty years old.

1354
01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:19,639
Speaker 1: He's a quarterback coach of the Philadelphia Eagles. He's gonna

1355
01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:21,439
Speaker 1: be a head coach one day. I don't know how

1356
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:25,960
Speaker 1: long it'll take, but he's a guy who the wise

1357
01:10:26,040 --> 01:10:29,439
Speaker 1: guys in the NFL like. And then, in my opinion,

1358
01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:32,840
Speaker 1: you've got to talk about Josh McDaniels. I don't think

1359
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:37,920
Speaker 1: he was tarnished nearly as much as the popular opinion

1360
01:10:38,200 --> 01:10:40,519
Speaker 1: was at the end of last year when he turned

1361
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:42,639
Speaker 1: down the job. In indeed that led to Frank Wright

1362
01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:46,680
Speaker 1: getting it. And then I think in college football, I

1363
01:10:46,800 --> 01:10:51,240
Speaker 1: think somebody is going to at least knock on the

1364
01:10:51,400 --> 01:10:59,520
Speaker 1: doors of David Shaw at Stanford, Jeff Braun at Louisville,

1365
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:05,440
Speaker 1: maybe Pat Fitzgerald of Northwestern, maybe Chris Peterson of Washington,

1366
01:11:05,560 --> 01:11:09,040
Speaker 1: although Peterson has said he's not leaving the Pacific Northwest.

1367
01:11:09,720 --> 01:11:13,360
Speaker 1: So I think those are the guys. But there's always

1368
01:11:13,439 --> 01:11:16,639
Speaker 1: going to be two or three guys who are going

1369
01:11:16,760 --> 01:11:18,600
Speaker 1: to come out of nowhere to say, how did that

1370
01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:22,320
Speaker 1: guy get this job? So we'll see. I'm sure we're

1371
01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:24,120
Speaker 1: going to talk a lot about coaching changes over the

1372
01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:26,639
Speaker 1: final four or five weeks of the season. Peter, thanks

1373
01:11:26,680 --> 01:11:29,160
Speaker 1: for this. We'll talk again. Thank you very much, all

1374

01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:48,920
Speaker 1: We got a lot to talk about here, including this

1381
01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:51,599
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback class. We asked Peter about it. Let's get

1382
01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:55,160
Speaker 1: your take on this. Of the five rookie first round quarterbacks,

1383
01:11:55,200 --> 01:11:58,400
Speaker 1: who do you think is the brightest future ahead? Josh Allen,

1384
01:11:58,680 --> 01:12:03,720
Speaker 1: Josh Rosen, Lamar Jackson, Sam Darnold or Baker Mayfield. Let

1385
01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:04,880
Speaker 1: us know what you think. Give us a call. We

1386
01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:06,800
Speaker 1: got phone lines open at eight oh three oh five

1387
01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:10,040
Speaker 1: fifty toll free one eight eight eight five fifty two

1388
01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 1: five fifty. Maybe we'll read your tweet on there in

1389
01:12:12,360 --> 01:12:14,439
Speaker 1: the tweet sheet. We'll do that when we return. One

1390
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:17,080
Speaker 1: Bill's Live from One Bill's Drive, presented by Collata Health

1391
01:12:17,120 --> 01:12:33,320
Speaker 1: and this is Buffalo Bill's Radio. Welcome back, One Bill's

1392
01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:35,599
Speaker 1: Live from One Bill's Drive. I'm John Murphy, Steve Caster

1393
01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:38,920
Speaker 1: is here here until three. Fordevious White's gonna make an

1394
01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:40,479
Speaker 1: appearance on the show. We haven't had him on since

1395
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,400
Speaker 1: training camp. He's had an outstanding year. He's been dodging

1396
01:12:43,479 --> 01:12:45,120
Speaker 1: us since training camps. Do you I don't get it.

1397
01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:47,439
Speaker 1: I don't either. We'll have to pump him up for

1398
01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:50,439
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl too. He's having a fantastic year. Last year,

1399
01:12:50,439 --> 01:12:52,120
Speaker 1: he had that great year and probably deserved to be

1400
01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:55,040
Speaker 1: in the Pro Bowl and didn't get a go, And

1401
01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:58,000
Speaker 1: then he got left off a lot of lists for

1402
01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:00,479
Speaker 1: how great a year he had. And I get it.

1403
01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:06,320
Speaker 1: I mean, Jayalen Ramsey had a good year, and Lattimore

1404
01:13:06,360 --> 01:13:09,880
Speaker 1: and New Orleans had a great year. But Tredavious White

1405
01:13:10,120 --> 01:13:14,080
Speaker 1: is a shutdown guy. He's the Bill's best candidate for

1406
01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:16,320
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl. Whether the likeliest guy that wind up there,

1407
01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:18,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, but he's their best and he's doing

1408
01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:19,880
Speaker 1: it at a d and he's doing it at a

1409
01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:25,040
Speaker 1: pretty important position. And I got to tip your hat

1410
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:28,080
Speaker 1: to him. He's he's played well from day one. Yeah,

1411
01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:31,360
Speaker 1: and he's gonna probably be a Buffalo Bill for a

1412
01:13:31,479 --> 01:13:34,400
Speaker 1: long time when practice ends. Trdavious White schedule to join us.

1413
01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:35,560
Speaker 1: I hope you stick around for that. We got a

1414
01:13:35,600 --> 01:13:37,519
Speaker 1: pretty good Twitter poll. I want to talk about that

1415
01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:40,000
Speaker 1: with you, and we got phone lines open too on

1416
01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:42,400
Speaker 1: this question. If you'd like to join in eight oh

1417
01:13:42,479 --> 01:13:45,040
Speaker 1: three five fifty to the number outside Buffalo tollfor he

1418
01:13:45,120 --> 01:13:48,160
Speaker 1: call one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty

1419
01:13:49,080 --> 01:13:52,080
Speaker 1: seventy five percent of the season complete right, four games left.

1420
01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:55,400
Speaker 1: What's of the five first round quarterbacks as the brightest future?

1421
01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:59,360
Speaker 1: On Twitter, We've had more than nine hundred responses so far,

1422
01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:02,400
Speaker 1: and two thirds of you sixty five percent say Josh

1423
01:14:02,439 --> 01:14:05,200
Speaker 1: Allen has the brightest future. I know where we are.

1424
01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:09,200
Speaker 1: I'm surprised by the head though, thirty, because I think

1425
01:14:09,240 --> 01:14:12,559
Speaker 1: that's not right quite frankly, I mean, I think Peter

1426
01:14:12,680 --> 01:14:16,240
Speaker 1: didn't even just even think about it. Baker Mayfield is good.

1427
01:14:16,680 --> 01:14:19,160
Speaker 1: I think he would be the obvious choice to have

1428
01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:21,400
Speaker 1: the brightest future. We'll see how. I'll tell you what though.

1429
01:14:21,640 --> 01:14:23,280
Speaker 1: Here's the thing that and the downer and why you

1430
01:14:23,320 --> 01:14:25,720
Speaker 1: can justify why that number may be more accurate than

1431
01:14:25,760 --> 01:14:27,840
Speaker 1: you're giving it credit for. Is Baker Mayfield's playing for

1432
01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:30,000
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns. They don't have a head coach. They

1433
01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:31,840
Speaker 1: they're looking for a head coach. And what happens if

1434
01:14:31,880 --> 01:14:34,240
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns go out and hire Doug Marrone as

1435
01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:37,840
Speaker 1: their head coach? Does that number go up or down?

1436
01:14:38,479 --> 01:14:40,840
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, right? No, I'm saying what

1437
01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:46,160
Speaker 1: if they hire a guy like Vance Joseph, who's struggling

1438
01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:48,719
Speaker 1: in Denver? What if they hire a guy like Steve Wilkes.

1439
01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:51,640
Speaker 1: What if they hire a guy who who is not

1440
01:14:51,760 --> 01:14:54,360
Speaker 1: a good quarterback at that guy, they're not gonna hire

1441
01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:57,160
Speaker 1: Sean McVay. And this is a point that came up,

1442
01:14:58,120 --> 01:15:01,200
Speaker 1: um when we talked yesterday with Chad Penny and about

1443
01:15:01,240 --> 01:15:04,720
Speaker 1: the Josh not Josh Sam Doarnold's prospects, and I said,

1444
01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:07,400
Speaker 1: poor Sam Donold's gonna probably get a new head coach

1445
01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:10,599
Speaker 1: and a new coordinator this off season. Josh Rosen may

1446
01:15:11,080 --> 01:15:14,080
Speaker 1: may not, but he may. Baker Mayfield certainly is getting

1447
01:15:14,520 --> 01:15:17,040
Speaker 1: a new coordinator and maybe a new head coach this season,

1448
01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:19,720
Speaker 1: maybe to be Greg Williams. We don't think, I mean,

1449
01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:21,240
Speaker 1: we know Josh Allen is not going to have that

1450
01:15:21,400 --> 01:15:24,200
Speaker 1: sort of thing to live through. And yes that's a factor.

1451
01:15:24,680 --> 01:15:27,000
Speaker 1: Maybe that does play into it. But sixty five percent,

1452
01:15:27,080 --> 01:15:29,800
Speaker 1: say Josh Allen, well, we're talking our Bills fans man,

1453
01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:32,040
Speaker 1: after he just carried the offense on his back in

1454
01:15:32,120 --> 01:15:35,880
Speaker 1: a very close loss to a division ride swards seventeen point. Yeah, well,

1455
01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:38,000
Speaker 1: they should have scored twenty four in a last row.

1456
01:15:38,120 --> 01:15:41,200
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Seven They didn't scored twenty four anyway,

1457
01:15:41,240 --> 01:15:42,960
Speaker 1: Let's know what you think. Lines open eight o three

1458
01:15:43,200 --> 01:15:46,240
Speaker 1: fifty toll free one eight eight five fifty two five

1459
01:15:46,320 --> 01:15:48,479
Speaker 1: fifty one. More thing is I critique the pole. If

1460
01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:51,639
Speaker 1: you're gonna critique our polls, I'm gonna critique response. Sam

1461
01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:55,080
Speaker 1: Darnold is not a bad quarterback, and you know so.

1462
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:56,880
Speaker 1: He hasn't played in a couple of weeks. He's had

1463
01:15:56,920 --> 01:15:59,679
Speaker 1: this foot injury. Likely to play on Sunday against the Bills.

1464
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:01,679
Speaker 1: We'll get a good look at him. I'm really excited

1465
01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:04,760
Speaker 1: about having Donald go up against the Josh Allen this week.

1466
01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:07,320
Speaker 1: But only two percent think he has a bright future.

1467
01:16:08,080 --> 01:16:10,280
Speaker 1: That's low. That's low, and I'll take and I get it.

1468
01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:12,040
Speaker 1: See here's the thing too, I mean you can't give

1469
01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:14,960
Speaker 1: opinions in it. If you're giving we had listen. I

1470
01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:17,360
Speaker 1: don't want to go too far into the diagnostics of

1471
01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:20,120
Speaker 1: our and the analytics of how we put this Twitter

1472
01:16:20,200 --> 01:16:23,839
Speaker 1: poll together. But there's only four options, right. My idea,

1473
01:16:24,439 --> 01:16:28,080
Speaker 1: which was shot right out of the sky, was don't

1474
01:16:28,240 --> 01:16:30,120
Speaker 1: don't give him options. Just say which of the five

1475
01:16:30,200 --> 01:16:35,160
Speaker 1: quarterback rookie quarterback, give their names, Sam, Josh, Josh, Lamar,

1476
01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:40,000
Speaker 1: and Baker, and just say which one of those guys

1477
01:16:40,040 --> 01:16:42,320
Speaker 1: has the brightest future and let people just write in

1478
01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:44,960
Speaker 1: so well, it would solve the fact that they could.

1479
01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:47,479
Speaker 1: They could give us a little bit of feedback instead

1480
01:16:47,479 --> 01:16:49,479
Speaker 1: of just having to pick one. They might think it's

1481
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:51,360
Speaker 1: a tie or a toss up between a couple of

1482
01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:53,720
Speaker 1: these guys. We're looking for feedback. Really, that's what we

1483
01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:55,439
Speaker 1: do when we do. If you want feedback, don't give

1484
01:16:55,520 --> 01:16:59,040
Speaker 1: him a don't give him a choice. Feedback. Feedback right there,

1485
01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:02,280
Speaker 1: numbers on the backs motifiable. It's not predictive either by

1486
01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:05,120
Speaker 1: just like analytics. Okay, let me go to the tweet

1487
01:17:05,160 --> 01:17:08,120
Speaker 1: sheet team any twenty two chimes in. You have to

1488
01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:10,640
Speaker 1: give Baker a slight edge just on play this year,

1489
01:17:10,720 --> 01:17:13,040
Speaker 1: but overall, the Bills are more stable organization from a

1490
01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:16,400
Speaker 1: coaching standpoint, and Alan has less talent to work with

1491
01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:19,439
Speaker 1: right now year two in the same offense scheme and

1492
01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:23,920
Speaker 1: improved talent on offense with cap and draft. The sky

1493
01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:25,840
Speaker 1: is the limit for Josh and that's pretty true. But

1494
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:28,120
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield is getting a new head coach and there's

1495
01:17:28,120 --> 01:17:30,240
Speaker 1: a lot more question marks on his future than there are.

1496
01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:34,240
Speaker 1: Although Baker Mayfield I think there's no question he's played

1497
01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:36,639
Speaker 1: as well as any young quarterback we've seen for a while,

1498
01:17:37,080 --> 01:17:40,479
Speaker 1: and Lamar Jackson, hey's three and oh there's a small

1499
01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:43,960
Speaker 1: sample size. Ye, and we'll see. Here's an interesting tweet

1500
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,840
Speaker 1: from the tweet sheet guy named Jello based on current play.

1501
01:17:47,160 --> 01:17:49,920
Speaker 1: I'm happy the Buffalo Bills did not choose Josh Rosen,

1502
01:17:50,400 --> 01:17:52,080
Speaker 1: but at this point that's as far as I will go.

1503
01:17:52,240 --> 01:17:54,080
Speaker 1: I also think Donald is going to have a hard

1504
01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:56,320
Speaker 1: goal of it with all the possible turnover that may

1505
01:17:56,400 --> 01:17:58,360
Speaker 1: happen with the Jets this offseason. But he looks good

1506
01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:01,439
Speaker 1: so far. Point about Rosen, Yeah, a lot of people

1507
01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:05,040
Speaker 1: after the draft were living that the Bills did not

1508
01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:07,479
Speaker 1: choose Josh Rosen, that they went with Josh Allen instead.

1509
01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:09,519
Speaker 1: You don't hear from those people much anymore. And look,

1510
01:18:09,560 --> 01:18:11,639
Speaker 1: the stories not told for either one of these quarterbacks,

1511
01:18:11,920 --> 01:18:13,760
Speaker 1: but all those people who said how could they pass

1512
01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:16,080
Speaker 1: on Josh Rosen? Where are those people? We've had a

1513
01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:18,200
Speaker 1: couple of people chiming and say, hey, they didn't say

1514
01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:21,880
Speaker 1: Rosen specifically, but they said all wasn't not a Alan fan,

1515
01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:24,680
Speaker 1: and he's starting to win people over, and on a

1516
01:18:24,720 --> 01:18:27,080
Speaker 1: week like this, it's easy to see them. But you're right,

1517
01:18:27,160 --> 01:18:29,920
Speaker 1: there was in the run up to this draft, with

1518
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:32,760
Speaker 1: all those guys available, everybody had an opinion, and when

1519
01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:34,800
Speaker 1: they picked Josh Allen, there was a lot of a

1520
01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:40,240
Speaker 1: lot of victriol on social media about the fact they

1521
01:18:40,320 --> 01:18:42,360
Speaker 1: chose a guy different than the one people thought they

1522
01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:45,000
Speaker 1: should and Rosen was one of those names, and he was.

1523
01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:47,679
Speaker 1: I haven't seen Josh Rosen a lot. I've seen maybe

1524
01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:49,920
Speaker 1: three of his games this year, and he looks okay,

1525
01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:52,800
Speaker 1: he'll be okay. He looks like a rookie quarterback. The

1526
01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:55,920
Speaker 1: thing about Josh Allen is, to me, he's different, he's unique,

1527
01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:59,120
Speaker 1: he's big, he's got a cannon, he's got I'm saying

1528
01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:01,519
Speaker 1: it again, am I had a fire that you don't

1529
01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:04,360
Speaker 1: see very often from quarterbacks who should be intimidated by

1530
01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:06,240
Speaker 1: coming out playing in the NFL for the first time.

1531
01:19:06,439 --> 01:19:08,599
Speaker 1: You don't get that from Josh Allen, which is why

1532
01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:12,160
Speaker 1: I think he has separated himself from most of these candidates,

1533
01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:15,320
Speaker 1: most of these first year's quarterbacks. And also, and we want,

1534
01:19:15,479 --> 01:19:17,400
Speaker 1: let's face it, we're talking to Bills fans on one

1535
01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:20,719
Speaker 1: Bills Live and we watched a lot of Bills stuff.

1536
01:19:21,200 --> 01:19:23,640
Speaker 1: There are specific things that Josh Allen did in the

1537
01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:28,320
Speaker 1: Miami game that even the most casual fan can say, hey,

1538
01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:30,720
Speaker 1: that's better than it was a week ago. He did

1539
01:19:30,840 --> 01:19:32,760
Speaker 1: smart things this week that he did not do a

1540
01:19:32,800 --> 01:19:35,960
Speaker 1: week ago. For instants, when he was breaking off long runs,

1541
01:19:36,040 --> 01:19:38,680
Speaker 1: he was running out of bounds, he was sliding, he

1542
01:19:38,840 --> 01:19:41,960
Speaker 1: was keeping his eyes down the field. Even on that

1543
01:19:42,120 --> 01:19:45,160
Speaker 1: last play when he saw Charles Clay opening the end zone,

1544
01:19:45,160 --> 01:19:46,840
Speaker 1: he kept his eyes down the field. It was a

1545
01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:48,840
Speaker 1: smart play not to try and get the first towns

1546
01:19:48,880 --> 01:19:51,800
Speaker 1: fourth and eleven and they had it shut off. He

1547
01:19:51,920 --> 01:19:54,320
Speaker 1: had to make a throw to win the game, and

1548
01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:56,880
Speaker 1: he did it. He did a lot of things, even

1549
01:19:56,960 --> 01:19:59,120
Speaker 1: though it was in the run game in his runs,

1550
01:19:59,400 --> 01:20:03,519
Speaker 1: that were smarter from a week from week eleven into

1551
01:20:03,640 --> 01:20:07,320
Speaker 1: week twelve, and it's easy for people to see, hey,

1552
01:20:07,360 --> 01:20:09,679
Speaker 1: this is a guy that is getting better week after week,

1553
01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:11,920
Speaker 1: game after game. So I think that's one of the

1554
01:20:11,960 --> 01:20:13,920
Speaker 1: things we see as Bills fans because we're watching it

1555
01:20:14,040 --> 01:20:16,960
Speaker 1: so closely, that we may not catch when we see

1556
01:20:17,320 --> 01:20:19,439
Speaker 1: a Sam Darnold game. We didn't see that last game

1557
01:20:19,479 --> 01:20:22,040
Speaker 1: where he did this different and this different, but we

1558
01:20:22,120 --> 01:20:23,720
Speaker 1: do see it with Josh Allen. That's why I think

1559
01:20:23,800 --> 01:20:27,200
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's running off with this poll from the tweet

1560
01:20:27,240 --> 01:20:29,920
Speaker 1: sheet as well from Andrew North. He says, I choose Baker.

1561
01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:33,320
Speaker 1: He shows me great qualities of a starting quarterback, and

1562
01:20:33,439 --> 01:20:36,000
Speaker 1: with them in the hunt for a new coach, I

1563
01:20:36,040 --> 01:20:38,400
Speaker 1: think they're going to get someone who is quarterback minded

1564
01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:40,720
Speaker 1: to unleash even more of his abilities. Well, I think

1565
01:20:40,760 --> 01:20:43,599
Speaker 1: that's the idea, right everybody wants the next Sean mcvayh

1566
01:20:44,040 --> 01:20:46,640
Speaker 1: Jared Goff was a bust one year MVP candidate the

1567
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:49,960
Speaker 1: next and doing large part to the way he was

1568
01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:52,360
Speaker 1: being handled by his coaching staff. And people are seeing

1569
01:20:52,439 --> 01:20:56,479
Speaker 1: that with Baker Mayfield and they're not saying it so

1570
01:20:56,600 --> 01:21:01,320
Speaker 1: much with Sam Darnold and Josh Rosen, but certainly that's

1571
01:21:01,360 --> 01:21:04,120
Speaker 1: on the table for those guys as well. Skipped over

1572
01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:08,280
Speaker 1: this tweet Steve on the tweet seet David Naka great Pole.

1573
01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:14,000
Speaker 1: Love your Twitter polls, even the occasional fail. Please put

1574
01:21:14,040 --> 01:21:16,000
Speaker 1: and please put me down for a vote for Steve

1575
01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:19,559
Speaker 1: Tasker for the Hall of Fame. That's not feedback. Yeah, Okay,

1576
01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:25,280
Speaker 1: that gives us. Okay, let's take a phone call as

1577
01:21:25,320 --> 01:21:27,559
Speaker 1: we talk about the rookie quarterbacks. Who you like, Who's

1578
01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:29,680
Speaker 1: who's at the head of the class right now, John

1579
01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:31,880
Speaker 1: and Buffalo on the ara. That's John. Go ahead, welcome,

1580
01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:35,880
Speaker 1: thank you, gentlemen, Good afternoon. Uh, you know, real quick,

1581
01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:37,479
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm gonna give him right now, and I

1582
01:21:37,880 --> 01:21:39,320
Speaker 1: hate to do it because I'm not a big fan

1583
01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:42,080
Speaker 1: of him his antics either, but Baker may kill I'm

1584
01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:44,840
Speaker 1: going to give the edge to Uh. He's looked good

1585
01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:47,240
Speaker 1: in a couple of games to share two or three games.

1586
01:21:47,600 --> 01:21:52,960
Speaker 1: Granted they were against some of the rougher hot defenses

1587
01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:55,640
Speaker 1: in the league like Oakland, Cincinnati and so forth. And

1588
01:21:55,800 --> 01:21:59,400
Speaker 1: last week we see what happens against a legit defense

1589
01:21:59,479 --> 01:22:01,680
Speaker 1: like Hughes and so I mean, but you know he's

1590
01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:04,600
Speaker 1: gonna have his growing paint too. But honestly, out of

1591
01:22:04,640 --> 01:22:08,400
Speaker 1: the five, I have Allen a clear second. And the

1592
01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:10,880
Speaker 1: beauty of being able to evaluate these guys, in my

1593
01:22:10,960 --> 01:22:13,040
Speaker 1: opinion this year is for the most part, I think

1594
01:22:13,080 --> 01:22:16,720
Speaker 1: you look around all five of the new quarterbacks and

1595
01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:20,360
Speaker 1: they're all like I think Josh Allen has. You know,

1596
01:22:20,640 --> 01:22:23,640
Speaker 1: arguably it's close with the Jets maybe one of the

1597
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:26,360
Speaker 1: worst supporting cats around him at the moment. So to

1598
01:22:26,479 --> 01:22:29,320
Speaker 1: see what he's able to do with what he's working

1599
01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:33,599
Speaker 1: with in his rookie season. You know, it is very encouraging,

1600
01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:37,960
Speaker 1: and I don't like hearing like the Patrick Mahomes comparisons like,

1601
01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:40,800
Speaker 1: oh we passed that him. Look what he's doing. He

1602
01:22:41,040 --> 01:22:45,640
Speaker 1: is legitimately surrounded by what looks like pro bowlers, you know,

1603
01:22:46,120 --> 01:22:48,439
Speaker 1: on that team. You know, so he got to come

1604
01:22:48,479 --> 01:22:51,800
Speaker 1: into like a cushy garden spot, whereas most of these

1605
01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:56,720
Speaker 1: five rookies, you know, they're you know, they're they're not

1606
01:22:56,880 --> 01:23:00,240
Speaker 1: working with you know, teams that are set up like

1607
01:23:00,840 --> 01:23:04,840
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints or the Kansas City Chiefs or

1608
01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:07,200
Speaker 1: the Rams. Yeah, and the Homes had a year to

1609
01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:10,639
Speaker 1: apprentice right behind a pretty good quarterback too, which counts

1610
01:23:10,640 --> 01:23:12,920
Speaker 1: for something, I think. Yeah. And I'll tell you this though,

1611
01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:16,479
Speaker 1: and to pump the brakes on on the point you

1612
01:23:16,560 --> 01:23:19,320
Speaker 1: made about Baker Mayfield playing good against bad defenses and

1613
01:23:19,400 --> 01:23:22,120
Speaker 1: bad against good defenses, Josh Allen played the twenty ninth

1614
01:23:22,160 --> 01:23:24,400
Speaker 1: defense in the league last week in Miami. I mean,

1615
01:23:24,439 --> 01:23:28,120
Speaker 1: they're not that good. And he granted and he only

1616
01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:30,320
Speaker 1: scored seventeen points, and granted he did have a chance

1617
01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:31,600
Speaker 1: to win it at the end, but I mean he

1618
01:23:31,800 --> 01:23:34,320
Speaker 1: lit it up against guys who defense has been playing

1619
01:23:34,360 --> 01:23:39,639
Speaker 1: that well, so, um, you know that goes God defense.

1620
01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:42,240
Speaker 1: Yeah he did, and he beat him. Yeah uh. And

1621
01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:45,080
Speaker 1: I think that's the thing, and that points to what

1622
01:23:45,200 --> 01:23:47,200
Speaker 1: we've talked about buy him. But I think all these

1623
01:23:47,240 --> 01:23:51,040
Speaker 1: young quarterbacks are kind of the same. You know, a

1624
01:23:51,160 --> 01:23:55,000
Speaker 1: bad defense or a bad opponent helps their entire team

1625
01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:57,200
Speaker 1: play better and their results and they're you know, they

1626
01:23:57,320 --> 01:24:00,960
Speaker 1: benefit from that. But also in your point Murph about

1627
01:24:00,960 --> 01:24:06,080
Speaker 1: beaton Jacksonville and losing to Miami, that competitive thing about

1628
01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:08,400
Speaker 1: Josh he wants to play in that game and win it,

1629
01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:11,360
Speaker 1: and he wants to and I think Peter King mentioned

1630
01:24:11,400 --> 01:24:13,280
Speaker 1: it as well, his competitive stuff, that he's trying to

1631
01:24:13,360 --> 01:24:15,479
Speaker 1: win that game. He doesn't care about looking good, he

1632
01:24:15,520 --> 01:24:18,080
Speaker 1: doesn't care about his statistics, he doesn't care about throwaways

1633
01:24:18,600 --> 01:24:20,320
Speaker 1: or not supposed to be able to run or not

1634
01:24:20,400 --> 01:24:22,600
Speaker 1: should not run. He's trying to win that game. And

1635
01:24:22,640 --> 01:24:24,960
Speaker 1: I think that shows through in Josh's play. I think

1636
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:27,920
Speaker 1: so too. Say one more call in this segment, we'll

1637
01:24:27,960 --> 01:24:30,519
Speaker 1: go to Kevin in Youngstown. Hello Kevin and welcome, You're

1638
01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:32,840
Speaker 1: on the air with us. How you doing. Um? I

1639
01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:35,600
Speaker 1: had a question specifically for Steve. It had to do

1640
01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:41,960
Speaker 1: with the Phillips guy that got the unfortunately m Yeah,

1641
01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:47,320
Speaker 1: Jordan Phillips. Yeah. Now when when you played special teams,

1642
01:24:47,560 --> 01:24:51,599
Speaker 1: and I do remember as great as they were Leonard

1643
01:24:51,720 --> 01:24:55,080
Speaker 1: Smith once in a while and sometimes Carowell Gardner got

1644
01:24:55,120 --> 01:24:57,599
Speaker 1: a little chippy and they get they take a flag

1645
01:24:57,680 --> 01:25:01,559
Speaker 1: and I was just curious. I know the coach address

1646
01:25:01,600 --> 01:25:04,760
Speaker 1: it and said play spurn, but do the players in

1647
01:25:04,840 --> 01:25:10,599
Speaker 1: the locker room actually this well discipline or really get

1648
01:25:10,680 --> 01:25:13,800
Speaker 1: on a guy and tell him we don't we don't

1649
01:25:13,880 --> 01:25:17,759
Speaker 1: take that anymore. You're you're did you guys police yourself

1650
01:25:17,840 --> 01:25:19,840
Speaker 1: in that way? Yeah? I mean and and that's and

1651
01:25:19,960 --> 01:25:23,080
Speaker 1: that's when you hear teams calling saying things like holding

1652
01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:26,840
Speaker 1: guys accountable. That's what that means. And they probably said

1653
01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:29,160
Speaker 1: something to him on the field right when it happened too.

1654
01:25:30,040 --> 01:25:32,200
Speaker 1: That's when it usually happens. Hey, hey man, you cannot

1655
01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:34,840
Speaker 1: do that. Don't do that. They'll get and they'll they'll

1656
01:25:34,880 --> 01:25:36,720
Speaker 1: snap at the guy right there on the field when

1657
01:25:36,760 --> 01:25:40,479
Speaker 1: that happens. Um, you'll see guys do that when guys

1658
01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:43,120
Speaker 1: jump off sides on a third and short. You know,

1659
01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:46,040
Speaker 1: you get guys going, what are you doing? Uh, that's

1660
01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:48,679
Speaker 1: holding guys accountable. But yeah, the players do say something,

1661
01:25:48,800 --> 01:25:51,559
Speaker 1: particularly in a healthy locker room, and the guy's receptive

1662
01:25:51,640 --> 01:25:55,600
Speaker 1: to it. For the most part, they understand, you know,

1663
01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:58,040
Speaker 1: it was their mistake. Now, a guy like Jordan Phillips,

1664
01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:02,080
Speaker 1: he had a lot of emotional baggage carrying into that game,

1665
01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:04,599
Speaker 1: So maybe his teammates would say, you listen, you can't

1666
01:26:04,640 --> 01:26:06,960
Speaker 1: do that. He knowing that, he knows that, but also

1667
01:26:07,080 --> 01:26:09,679
Speaker 1: understanding that was a different game for him. So there's

1668
01:26:09,720 --> 01:26:11,439
Speaker 1: that in the in the equation as well. But there's

1669
01:26:11,439 --> 01:26:16,400
Speaker 1: absolutely no question Kevin that his teammates do hold him accountable. Absolutely.

1670
01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:19,120
Speaker 1: Thanks for that question. We're gonna take more on this.

1671
01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:22,200
Speaker 1: Which rookie quarterback has the probabiest future? Just came across

1672
01:26:22,280 --> 01:26:25,920
Speaker 1: this tweet Steve so Dolphins. The Dolphins actually are home

1673
01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:29,160
Speaker 1: against New England on Sunday. Mike Reis, who covers the

1674
01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:32,840
Speaker 1: Patriots for ESPN, has this on Twitter stat of the day.

1675
01:26:33,400 --> 01:26:35,519
Speaker 1: Are you ready there's not going to make any feel good?

1676
01:26:35,560 --> 01:26:37,200
Speaker 1: I've seen it? What do you think should I read it?

1677
01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:40,840
Speaker 1: This one about the Patriots? Yeah, the Patriots can clinch

1678
01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:43,240
Speaker 1: their tenth straight division title with the win or a

1679
01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:46,559
Speaker 1: tie on Sunday, and according to Elia Sports Bureau, they

1680
01:26:46,600 --> 01:26:49,320
Speaker 1: would join the Atlanta Braves. Is the only franchise from

1681
01:26:49,320 --> 01:26:52,760
Speaker 1: the NFL, NBA, Major League Baseball, or NHL to win

1682
01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:56,679
Speaker 1: at least ten straight division titles. Is that what you had? There? No? Still,

1683
01:26:56,920 --> 01:27:01,679
Speaker 1: it's just been worst since twenty ten. In Week twelve

1684
01:27:02,080 --> 01:27:04,720
Speaker 1: or Game twelve of the NFL season, after twelve games

1685
01:27:04,800 --> 01:27:08,439
Speaker 1: the NFL season since twenty ten, the Patriots have never

1686
01:27:08,520 --> 01:27:10,360
Speaker 1: been worse than nine and three. They've been nine and

1687
01:27:10,439 --> 01:27:12,679
Speaker 1: three five times. They've been ten and two four times.

1688
01:27:13,120 --> 01:27:15,920
Speaker 1: They're gonna win their tenth straight division title. Maybe this Sunday,

1689
01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:19,000
Speaker 1: Oh man a break. We're back with more One Bills

1690
01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:21,439
Speaker 1: Live from One Bills Drive and this is Buffalo Bills Radio.

1691
01:27:37,240 --> 01:27:39,719
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show, John Murphy, Steve Tansker. Bill's

1692
01:27:39,760 --> 01:27:42,240
Speaker 1: practice about ready to wrap up today for this Wednesday,

1693
01:27:42,280 --> 01:27:44,840
Speaker 1: and once it does, probably around the top of the hour.

1694
01:27:44,920 --> 01:27:47,519
Speaker 1: After the top of the hour, trede Avis White scheduled

1695
01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:49,880
Speaker 1: to join US Trade eight here in studio with us

1696
01:27:50,360 --> 01:27:53,200
Speaker 1: talking about quarterbacks, rookie quarterbacks. Which one has the brightest

1697
01:27:53,200 --> 01:27:55,800
Speaker 1: future of the five first rounders this year? Jim and

1698
01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:59,800
Speaker 1: Rochester has some thoughts. Jim go ahead, you around the ear, Yes, hello, Hi.

1699
01:28:00,439 --> 01:28:03,559
Speaker 1: I just don't see that big of a difference between

1700
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:08,679
Speaker 1: Josh Allen and Tyrade Taylor. It's a run before pass.

1701
01:28:09,439 --> 01:28:12,200
Speaker 1: Had a couple of runs he made, he had open receivers,

1702
01:28:12,880 --> 01:28:15,120
Speaker 1: and the first hops she took was to open field

1703
01:28:15,120 --> 01:28:17,280
Speaker 1: the head of him. Well, here's the difference before you

1704
01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:19,680
Speaker 1: get too far down this road. One of them's got

1705
01:28:19,720 --> 01:28:23,320
Speaker 1: a great, strong, huge arm. The other one doesn't. Here's

1706
01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:25,719
Speaker 1: another difference. One of them is a rookie who's started

1707
01:28:25,760 --> 01:28:27,639
Speaker 1: seven games in the NFL. The other one is about

1708
01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:30,439
Speaker 1: a guy equivalent of five or six years worth of

1709
01:28:30,479 --> 01:28:33,479
Speaker 1: experience in the league. There's a difference. Yeah, But the

1710
01:28:33,520 --> 01:28:38,240
Speaker 1: accuracy I'm both Jim, you're not watching, and the choosing

1711
01:28:38,280 --> 01:28:42,559
Speaker 1: to run before Jim, you're not watching. You're not watching

1712
01:28:42,680 --> 01:28:45,320
Speaker 1: Josh Allen throw from the pocket, and I saw him

1713
01:28:45,360 --> 01:28:48,000
Speaker 1: do it on a handful, at least a handful of throws.

1714
01:28:48,080 --> 01:28:50,160
Speaker 1: The other day. He's playing against an offense with an

1715
01:28:50,200 --> 01:28:53,040
Speaker 1: offensive line that can't hold those guys out, with two

1716
01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:55,519
Speaker 1: backup with two guards that are brand new, and a

1717
01:28:55,600 --> 01:28:58,240
Speaker 1: center that was a backup center, and he stood in

1718
01:28:58,280 --> 01:29:01,080
Speaker 1: the pocket a couple of times. He threw a dart

1719
01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:06,280
Speaker 1: to Isaiah McKenzie, threw a dart to Robert Foster, not

1720
01:29:06,479 --> 01:29:10,919
Speaker 1: Robert Foster, Zay Jones. He threw a pass a touchdown

1721
01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:12,800
Speaker 1: pass right, and a couple of these were right down

1722
01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:14,840
Speaker 1: the middle of a hash marks. Now, there's no doubt

1723
01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:18,719
Speaker 1: he's moving around in the pocket. But if you're saying,

1724
01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:20,800
Speaker 1: if you're telling me you haven't seen him stand in

1725
01:29:20,880 --> 01:29:23,400
Speaker 1: the pocket and look to his left, come back to

1726
01:29:23,479 --> 01:29:27,400
Speaker 1: the right and hit Zay Jones with a dart down

1727
01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:29,880
Speaker 1: between the numbers, you haven't been watching. Now. I don't

1728
01:29:29,920 --> 01:29:32,880
Speaker 1: think there's any question that Josh Allen is running, maybe

1729
01:29:32,920 --> 01:29:35,280
Speaker 1: more than anybody wants him to see. A lot of

1730
01:29:35,320 --> 01:29:37,559
Speaker 1: it is a function of the fact that he doesn't

1731
01:29:37,560 --> 01:29:40,599
Speaker 1: have an offense around him that's been built yet. They're

1732
01:29:41,560 --> 01:29:44,960
Speaker 1: just trying to hold it together around him. Yeah, they're

1733
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:48,160
Speaker 1: cutting receivers yesterday, and they cut two. They cut two

1734
01:29:48,160 --> 01:29:50,080
Speaker 1: of their receivers who have started games for him this

1735
01:29:50,120 --> 01:29:52,479
Speaker 1: season yesterday. And they've got a guy who's in his

1736
01:29:52,600 --> 01:29:55,760
Speaker 1: second year who is now elevated to the number one,

1737
01:29:55,840 --> 01:29:57,720
Speaker 1: and they got a bunch of rookies with him, and

1738
01:29:57,840 --> 01:29:59,720
Speaker 1: one of the guys, Isaiah McKenzie wasn't even on the

1739
01:29:59,760 --> 01:30:02,120
Speaker 1: team at the beginning of the year. Their offensive line

1740
01:30:02,200 --> 01:30:04,320
Speaker 1: is made up with a rookie rut left guard who

1741
01:30:04,439 --> 01:30:06,080
Speaker 1: was not good enough to get on the field, and

1742
01:30:06,120 --> 01:30:08,000
Speaker 1: finally they just said, listen, we got to make a change.

1743
01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:11,120
Speaker 1: He's starting. Now they've got a backup left guard in

1744
01:30:11,240 --> 01:30:14,160
Speaker 1: jeremiaht right guard and Jeremiah Searles who took over for

1745
01:30:14,280 --> 01:30:16,519
Speaker 1: John Miller because of injury. And now they've got a

1746
01:30:16,600 --> 01:30:19,280
Speaker 1: center who's a backup who took over because of injury.

1747
01:30:19,600 --> 01:30:22,920
Speaker 1: And you're telling me he's not standing in the pocket. Yeah,

1748
01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:27,559
Speaker 1: I been watching. There's something from the tweet sheet Tiffany

1749
01:30:27,680 --> 01:30:30,000
Speaker 1: Daniels to our question which rookie quarterback has a bright

1750
01:30:30,080 --> 01:30:33,240
Speaker 1: of future? Tiffany Daniels tweets and Josh Allen has a

1751
01:30:33,280 --> 01:30:37,880
Speaker 1: special skill set most players do not have. He has size, speed,

1752
01:30:38,040 --> 01:30:41,360
Speaker 1: a huge arm, and athleticism. Is ceiling is higher than

1753
01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:43,880
Speaker 1: the other quarterbacks. The team needs to ads some weapons

1754
01:30:43,920 --> 01:30:46,439
Speaker 1: in the offseason. Brady can't play forever. Josh is the

1755
01:30:46,520 --> 01:30:48,840
Speaker 1: future in the division. That's encouraging to hear that that

1756
01:30:48,960 --> 01:30:50,960
Speaker 1: she thinks that, and she makes a really good point

1757
01:30:50,960 --> 01:30:53,840
Speaker 1: about ceiling him We talked a moment ago about how

1758
01:30:53,880 --> 01:30:57,639
Speaker 1: I think Baker Mayfield is the obvious number one answer

1759
01:30:57,680 --> 01:31:01,000
Speaker 1: to our question today. But what if we said, after

1760
01:31:01,200 --> 01:31:03,560
Speaker 1: three quarters of the season, which of the rookies is

1761
01:31:03,600 --> 01:31:07,679
Speaker 1: the highest ceiling. That's a compelling argument. Maybe Josh Dusty,

1762
01:31:07,840 --> 01:31:10,400
Speaker 1: because we know they're gonna build around him, give him

1763
01:31:10,479 --> 01:31:13,320
Speaker 1: some quality pie there's still people, let me finish, give

1764
01:31:13,400 --> 01:31:15,240
Speaker 1: him some pieces on the offensive side of the ball.

1765
01:31:15,479 --> 01:31:17,240
Speaker 1: We know that he has this great skill set. Maybe

1766
01:31:17,240 --> 01:31:19,360
Speaker 1: he has a higher ceiling than Baker Mayfield. I could

1767
01:31:19,439 --> 01:31:21,600
Speaker 1: be convinced of that. Yeah, I'm still upset about the

1768
01:31:21,640 --> 01:31:24,040
Speaker 1: call excent believe there's people who still I think Tyrod

1769
01:31:24,120 --> 01:31:31,439
Speaker 1: Taylor's got a higher ceiling. Are you kidding me? Go on, No,

1770
01:31:31,880 --> 01:31:35,400
Speaker 1: I No, that's crazy talk you're gonna bring You're actually

1771
01:31:35,400 --> 01:31:38,840
Speaker 1: gonna tell me Josh Josh Allen is not as good

1772
01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:43,160
Speaker 1: as Tyrod Taylor. I didn't say that. By the way,

1773
01:31:43,400 --> 01:31:44,960
Speaker 1: you let the guy on the field. I'm blaming you.

1774
01:31:45,200 --> 01:31:51,240
Speaker 1: He took the call you Twitter poll last week. I

1775
01:31:51,360 --> 01:31:55,479
Speaker 1: did Tyrod Taylor. Are we still you're You're gonna take

1776
01:31:55,560 --> 01:31:59,519
Speaker 1: me back to Tyrod Taylor when we I mean you're

1777
01:32:00,800 --> 01:32:04,400
Speaker 1: I'd rather have Matt Barkley. I don't know if I

1778
01:32:04,520 --> 01:32:06,519
Speaker 1: go that far, but I'd rather have Matt Barkley than

1779
01:32:06,600 --> 01:32:10,600
Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor. I'd rather have Derek Anderson in concussion protocol

1780
01:32:11,040 --> 01:32:13,960
Speaker 1: than Tyrod Taylor. If you have any low caffeine pepsi

1781
01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:16,120
Speaker 1: in there from no, I'm having another shot of it too.

1782
01:32:16,160 --> 01:32:17,840
Speaker 1: I'm not any to go get a five hour and

1783
01:32:17,920 --> 01:32:22,360
Speaker 1: put in there. It's unbelievable. They're not and he's not accurate.

1784
01:32:23,840 --> 01:32:25,760
Speaker 1: Give me give me a throw that wasn't accurate, the

1785
01:32:25,840 --> 01:32:27,080
Speaker 1: one that came out of his hand at the end

1786
01:32:27,120 --> 01:32:30,519
Speaker 1: of the game. You're and that's your takeaway from the game.

1787
01:32:32,760 --> 01:32:35,400
Speaker 1: We're gonna have a tredavious while coming up next hour,

1788
01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:37,559
Speaker 1: make sure you come back for that. One goes live

1789
01:32:37,640 --> 01:32:39,280
Speaker 1: from One Bills Were done? Are we done in this?

1790
01:32:39,479 --> 01:32:41,880
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get settled down. We're gonna get Steve

1791
01:32:41,960 --> 01:32:43,599
Speaker 1: calmed down here. We got a fire hose in the corner.

1792
01:32:43,640 --> 01:32:45,120
Speaker 1: We will hold him down and get him ready for

1793
01:32:45,200 --> 01:32:47,120
Speaker 1: the third and final hour of the show. One goes

1794
01:32:47,200 --> 01:33:00,639
Speaker 1: live from One Goes Drive on Buffalo Bill's Radio, Hello

1795
01:33:00,760 --> 01:33:05,000
Speaker 1: Bills Radio Network. Sports Days Up Day comes from One

1796
01:33:05,040 --> 01:33:07,639
Speaker 1: Bill's Drive with the Bills practiced indoors today in practice

1797
01:33:07,640 --> 01:33:10,000
Speaker 1: has just ended minutes ago. We're gonna get Tredevious White,

1798
01:33:10,200 --> 01:33:12,320
Speaker 1: Bill's cornerback in studio with us in a minute or

1799
01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:14,680
Speaker 1: two to talk about today's workout and getting set for

1800
01:33:14,760 --> 01:33:17,439
Speaker 1: the Jets. Tarn Johnson did not practice today, the Bill's

1801
01:33:17,439 --> 01:33:20,600
Speaker 1: working corner. Instead, underwent surgery on his shoulder, which has

1802
01:33:20,640 --> 01:33:23,920
Speaker 1: bothered him all season long. He is out indefinitely. Likely

1803
01:33:24,200 --> 01:33:27,639
Speaker 1: Tarren Johnson season is over. The Bill's tight end Jason

1804
01:33:27,720 --> 01:33:29,880
Speaker 1: Krum did not practice today. He's got a growing issue.

1805
01:33:30,160 --> 01:33:32,719
Speaker 1: Limited work for John Miller with his oblique muscle problem,

1806
01:33:32,800 --> 01:33:36,160
Speaker 1: and limited work for quarterback Derek Anderson in concussion protocol.

1807
01:33:36,439 --> 01:33:38,680
Speaker 1: Head coach Sean McDermott says Ryan Groy will get the

1808

1903
01:38:26,840 --> 01:38:31,000
Speaker 1: receivers Calvin Benjamin and Andre Holmes. It's obviously, you know,

1905
01:38:33,520 --> 01:38:36,320
Speaker 1: we wish them nothing but the best, and I'm not

1906
01:38:36,680 --> 01:38:41,479
Speaker 1: in charge of making all those decisions. Um, but I mean,

1907
01:38:41,760 --> 01:38:43,519
Speaker 1: you know, these younger guys are going to get an

1908
01:38:43,560 --> 01:38:46,200
Speaker 1: opportunity now and get to see what they can do

1909
01:38:46,840 --> 01:38:50,000
Speaker 1: to help the team win football games. So, um, and

1910
01:38:50,240 --> 01:38:53,120
Speaker 1: the guys like Rob and Isaiah and Ray Ray and

1911
01:38:54,120 --> 01:38:57,040
Speaker 1: and Zay, you get to go out there and really

1912
01:38:57,040 --> 01:38:59,240
Speaker 1: show what they can do now and um, they're looking

1913
01:38:59,280 --> 01:39:02,640
Speaker 1: forward to it. Say what do you make of the

1914
01:39:02,840 --> 01:39:06,800
Speaker 1: chemistry you've developed? Especially after amist the floor games and

1915
01:39:06,920 --> 01:39:09,800
Speaker 1: then you you developed some chemistry? Was gay? You have

1916
01:39:09,840 --> 01:39:12,559
Speaker 1: to be a news plastic week in Robert Foster? Um

1917
01:39:12,840 --> 01:39:16,080
Speaker 1: before that? Just how how how was that? Do? How's

1918
01:39:16,080 --> 01:39:19,880
Speaker 1: that been working on developed? I mean obviously just throwing

1919
01:39:19,960 --> 01:39:22,920
Speaker 1: with them, Um after practice. You know, those are two

1920
01:39:22,920 --> 01:39:25,840
Speaker 1: guys that work extremely hard in practice and you know

1921
01:39:25,920 --> 01:39:28,439
Speaker 1: they run extremely hard during the game. So you know

1922
01:39:28,520 --> 01:39:31,680
Speaker 1: they're their high effort dudes that you know want to

1923
01:39:31,720 --> 01:39:34,560
Speaker 1: win football games. And that's what their mindsets are, you know,

1924
01:39:35,200 --> 01:39:37,720
Speaker 1: forward to and Um, when you got that mindset and

1925
01:39:37,800 --> 01:39:40,360
Speaker 1: that work ethic, I think kind of comes naturally. And

1926
01:39:40,520 --> 01:39:42,040
Speaker 1: the more I throw at them, the more comfortable I

1927
01:39:42,080 --> 01:39:45,559
Speaker 1: feel with them. When you see like Vid and right too,

1928
01:39:45,720 --> 01:39:48,160
Speaker 1: you know kind of professors in this league and I

1929
01:39:48,200 --> 01:39:49,920
Speaker 1: get released in the middle of the season because it's

1930
01:39:49,920 --> 01:39:56,320
Speaker 1: sort of reinforced this business absolutely and you never know

1931
01:39:56,800 --> 01:39:59,559
Speaker 1: you know when it could be um, when it could

1932
01:39:59,560 --> 01:40:03,519
Speaker 1: be your time him. So it's it's the NFL. You know,

1933
01:40:03,720 --> 01:40:07,880
Speaker 1: it's UM for the best of the best, and um,

1934
01:40:08,680 --> 01:40:10,519
Speaker 1: you know it's a performance based league, I guess. And

1935
01:40:11,640 --> 01:40:13,960
Speaker 1: you know, I'm looking forward to the guys you know

1936
01:40:14,200 --> 01:40:16,000
Speaker 1: that we got right now, and uh, we're gonna be

1937
01:40:16,080 --> 01:40:18,840
Speaker 1: working extremely hard to build on these last four weeks,

1938
01:40:19,560 --> 01:40:22,840
Speaker 1: all of them being released. He looked at Zay Jones.

1939
01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:29,040
Speaker 1: How have you seen him kind of the first season? Well,

1940
01:40:29,040 --> 01:40:31,200
Speaker 1: I mean they he gets better every day. You know,

1941
01:40:31,280 --> 01:40:34,160
Speaker 1: he works his tail off. He does. He comes into practice,

1942
01:40:34,200 --> 01:40:37,200
Speaker 1: he never takes a rep off. Um, and it's shown

1943
01:40:37,240 --> 01:40:40,280
Speaker 1: him games because he's just you know, he's finding ways

1944
01:40:40,320 --> 01:40:43,480
Speaker 1: to get it done. Um, you know, creating more separation.

1945
01:40:43,640 --> 01:40:46,320
Speaker 1: It seems like every game. And it's like it's a

1946
01:40:46,400 --> 01:40:49,559
Speaker 1: guy that when I was here on my visit pre draft,

1947
01:40:49,640 --> 01:40:51,120
Speaker 1: he came up to me and he talked to me,

1948
01:40:51,200 --> 01:40:53,800
Speaker 1: and UM, you know he's a very genuine dude. And

1949
01:40:55,040 --> 01:40:57,000
Speaker 1: when you got you know, all those different aspects and

1950
01:40:57,040 --> 01:40:59,680
Speaker 1: he's a high character guy. And UM, he sa when

1951
01:40:59,680 --> 01:41:01,200
Speaker 1: you want to you know, you want to throw the

1952
01:41:01,240 --> 01:41:03,519
Speaker 1: ball to, you want to work with and um, when

1953
01:41:03,560 --> 01:41:06,040
Speaker 1: he's got that type of attitude and work ethic. Like

1954
01:41:06,080 --> 01:41:08,960
Speaker 1: I said, it just kind of the chemistry just kind

1955
01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:11,200
Speaker 1: of becomes natural. Um, and the more you throw to them,

1956
01:41:11,560 --> 01:41:14,800
Speaker 1: chemistry relationship kind of go beyond the field a little

1957
01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:18,560
Speaker 1: bit for sure. And that's I mean, you know, I

1958
01:41:18,640 --> 01:41:20,400
Speaker 1: try to relate with all my guys here and um,

1959
01:41:20,880 --> 01:41:23,439
Speaker 1: hang out with them after practice as much as I can,

1960
01:41:23,680 --> 01:41:25,880
Speaker 1: you know, off the field, and I definitely think that's

1961
01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:29,080
Speaker 1: kind of a key aspect in developing relationships and chemistry

1962
01:41:29,120 --> 01:41:31,640
Speaker 1: with guys is knowing them on you know, not just

1963
01:41:31,720 --> 01:41:34,240
Speaker 1: a football level, but on a personal level. Um, when

1964
01:41:34,240 --> 01:41:35,599
Speaker 1: you can go up to him and talk to him

1965
01:41:36,000 --> 01:41:38,320
Speaker 1: during a game and knowing what you can and can't

1966
01:41:38,360 --> 01:41:41,280
Speaker 1: say to them and what gets them going. Um, that's

1967
01:41:41,280 --> 01:41:43,439
Speaker 1: just kind of it takes time. But I think right

1968
01:41:43,520 --> 01:41:45,880
Speaker 1: now what we've got is, uh, you know, we got

1969
01:41:45,960 --> 01:41:47,600
Speaker 1: a good thing going and um, like I said, the

1970
01:41:47,680 --> 01:41:49,720
Speaker 1: last four weeks or where we're trying to build on them,

1971
01:41:50,560 --> 01:41:55,760
Speaker 1: think was trying to already get hit. I don't know.

1972
01:41:55,800 --> 01:41:57,160
Speaker 1: I think that's just the type of guy he is.

1973
01:41:57,240 --> 01:42:00,479
Speaker 1: You know, he talks to everyone, um, you know, very kindly.

1974
01:42:00,520 --> 01:42:02,439
Speaker 1: I think if you talk to anybody in the in

1975
01:42:02,520 --> 01:42:04,800
Speaker 1: the office or the administration here and they say the

1976
01:42:04,840 --> 01:42:12,120
Speaker 1: same thing, Yeah, what's day until great start with the

1977
01:42:12,200 --> 01:42:18,040
Speaker 1: spring are expectations of what you can rely on change

1978
01:42:18,120 --> 01:42:20,920
Speaker 1: from maybe the summer to where you're at. I mean

1979
01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:23,400
Speaker 1: I have a lot of trust, a lot of faith

1980
01:42:23,479 --> 01:42:26,240
Speaker 1: and all the guys here, um, you know, seeing them

1981
01:42:26,280 --> 01:42:28,800
Speaker 1: put in the work that they do, and you know,

1982
01:42:29,000 --> 01:42:30,960
Speaker 1: being a quarterback, you got to you gotta trust your guys.

1983
01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:32,200
Speaker 1: You have to be able to throw it up there

1984
01:42:32,200 --> 01:42:34,400
Speaker 1: and be like, Okay, my guy's gonna come down with us.

1985
01:42:34,400 --> 01:42:37,400
Speaker 1: And the more we throw with each other, um, whether

1986
01:42:37,439 --> 01:42:40,880
Speaker 1: it's during practice, after practice, during games, I think the

1987
01:42:41,040 --> 01:42:44,519
Speaker 1: more that continues to build. Um, I'm excited where you know,

1988
01:42:44,560 --> 01:42:46,320
Speaker 1: where we can take this thing because you know, we

1989
01:42:46,400 --> 01:42:49,400
Speaker 1: got some really talented guys in that room particularly, and

1990
01:42:50,240 --> 01:42:52,640
Speaker 1: they're very young, and you know, they got a lot

1991
01:42:52,680 --> 01:42:56,320
Speaker 1: of a lot of good things going for him. Quack

1992
01:42:56,520 --> 01:43:04,040
Speaker 1: or goods, friendly, competitive text going out. No, not really, Um,

1993
01:43:05,479 --> 01:43:07,799
Speaker 1: you know, we'll see each other, you know, on Sunday

1994
01:43:07,920 --> 01:43:11,439
Speaker 1: and we'll talk a little bit. But you know, I'm

1995
01:43:11,479 --> 01:43:14,800
Speaker 1: not really going against Sam. I'm going against the Jets defense.

1996
01:43:14,840 --> 01:43:17,439
Speaker 1: And it's a really good defense. Um, they play a

1997
01:43:17,520 --> 01:43:19,559
Speaker 1: lot better than what their record shows, and they got

1998
01:43:19,640 --> 01:43:21,880
Speaker 1: some playmakers on that side of the football. So you know,

1999
01:43:21,960 --> 01:43:23,479
Speaker 1: we got to prepare them. We gotta be ready for

2000
01:43:23,720 --> 01:43:25,639
Speaker 1: whatever they throw at us. And you know, coach Jabel

2001
01:43:25,720 --> 01:43:28,040
Speaker 1: is going to do a great job and game planning,

2002
01:43:28,080 --> 01:43:31,360
Speaker 1: and um, you know, whatever happened last game happened, And

2003
01:43:31,640 --> 01:43:34,800
Speaker 1: we're not not worried about last game. Um, I'm in

2004
01:43:34,920 --> 01:43:37,080
Speaker 1: regards to when we played the Jets, you know in

2005
01:43:37,200 --> 01:43:39,960
Speaker 1: New York. You know, it's a completely different ballgame. Um,

2006
01:43:40,280 --> 01:43:42,160
Speaker 1: we're trying to prepare as well as we can and

2007
01:43:42,200 --> 01:43:45,040
Speaker 1: we're going in there ready for you a really good game.

2008
01:43:51,120 --> 01:43:55,800
Speaker 1: We're there. Any conversation about knowing you gotta twice a

2009
01:43:55,920 --> 01:44:01,479
Speaker 1: year and over I mean hopefully gus readers and cities,

2010
01:44:01,520 --> 01:44:04,479
Speaker 1: But did you kind of almost look into the future

2011
01:44:04,520 --> 01:44:08,639
Speaker 1: a little bit together? I guess you can say that. Yeah,

2012
01:44:08,760 --> 01:44:11,680
Speaker 1: especially after draft night and we met up and I

2013
01:44:11,880 --> 01:44:14,479
Speaker 1: got to hang out after after everything kind of settled down,

2014
01:44:14,520 --> 01:44:16,760
Speaker 1: and you know, obviously being in the same division, you're

2015
01:44:16,760 --> 01:44:19,160
Speaker 1: gonna see each other twice a year. So, UM, you know,

2016
01:44:19,200 --> 01:44:21,720
Speaker 1: we're excited for it, and you know, we hope this

2017
01:44:21,840 --> 01:44:23,720
Speaker 1: is a matchup for a long time on at least

2018
01:44:23,720 --> 01:44:25,000
Speaker 1: I do it. You know, I want to be here

2019
01:44:25,040 --> 01:44:27,840
Speaker 1: for you know, as long as I can be and um,

2020
01:44:27,960 --> 01:44:29,639
Speaker 1: as long as I can play football. This is where

2021
01:44:29,640 --> 01:44:34,679
Speaker 1: I want to be. Us. It's frustrations with how seasons,

2022
01:44:35,160 --> 01:44:39,200
Speaker 1: how much of a sense did you have? Frustrations of

2023
01:44:39,360 --> 01:44:42,800
Speaker 1: his short business? Um, I mean it was hard to gauge.

2024
01:44:42,880 --> 01:44:45,800
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not really focused in on you know,

2025
01:44:45,840 --> 01:44:48,519
Speaker 1: what everybody else is doing or how everybody else is feeling. Um,

2026
01:44:48,520 --> 01:44:50,600
Speaker 1: I'm trying to win football games and um, you know,

2027
01:44:50,640 --> 01:44:52,360
Speaker 1: I was just trying to prepare on myself and being

2028
01:44:52,360 --> 01:44:54,519
Speaker 1: my rookie year, just trying to learn the ins and

2029
01:44:54,600 --> 01:44:56,920
Speaker 1: outs of being a professional football player. Um, doing the

2030
01:44:57,000 --> 01:44:59,360
Speaker 1: right things, getting with coach Dable and you know, going

2031
01:44:59,400 --> 01:45:01,960
Speaker 1: of our game play in and coming out and practicing hard. Um.

2032
01:45:02,600 --> 01:45:03,640
Speaker 1: You know, we've got a lot of guys that do

2033
01:45:03,720 --> 01:45:07,120
Speaker 1: this on this team. Pass in the end zone where

2034
01:45:07,120 --> 01:45:09,360
Speaker 1: you and Za couldn't connected. You guys walked through that

2035
01:45:09,400 --> 01:45:10,960
Speaker 1: a few times, said say, kind of gotten on the

2036
01:45:10,960 --> 01:45:13,280
Speaker 1: same Yeah, we were on the same page. Now we've

2037
01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:16,240
Speaker 1: talked about it a lot. Um, you know, that's one

2038
01:45:16,280 --> 01:45:18,120
Speaker 1: of a couple throws. I wish I had back during

2039
01:45:18,200 --> 01:45:21,080
Speaker 1: that game. Um. You know, like I said, Zay was

2040
01:45:21,800 --> 01:45:24,160
Speaker 1: being an instinctual football player and he saw opening, he

2041
01:45:24,240 --> 01:45:27,760
Speaker 1: saw grass and he took grass. So, UM, that's one

2042
01:45:27,760 --> 01:45:29,120
Speaker 1: of the ones that's gonna hurt me for a while.

2043
01:45:29,200 --> 01:45:32,360
Speaker 1: I should I dream about that last throw too, and UM,

2044
01:45:33,760 --> 01:45:36,400
Speaker 1: but that's that's past us now. So we're building on it.

2045
01:45:36,520 --> 01:45:38,839
Speaker 1: We're looking to get better and you know, we're trending

2046
01:45:38,880 --> 01:45:40,679
Speaker 1: in the right direction right now. You know, our offense

2047
01:45:40,840 --> 01:45:43,840
Speaker 1: is is doing a lot better. Um. I think we're

2048
01:45:43,880 --> 01:45:46,160
Speaker 1: really close football team. I keep saying that, and the

2049
01:45:46,280 --> 01:45:48,080
Speaker 1: last three weeks kind of shows that, you know, we've

2050
01:45:48,080 --> 01:45:49,599
Speaker 1: got what it takes. We just got to start putting

2051
01:45:49,640 --> 01:45:53,960
Speaker 1: it all together and start executing as a team. That's

2052
01:45:54,040 --> 01:45:59,679
Speaker 1: sense that the numbers. I don't want to put words

2053
01:45:59,680 --> 01:46:01,280
Speaker 1: in you. I mean you can look at the numbers

2054
01:46:01,320 --> 01:46:04,080
Speaker 1: and this taste six or you know, have gotten a

2055
01:46:04,120 --> 01:46:07,080
Speaker 1: lot better. Um. I'm not going to go into detail

2056
01:46:07,400 --> 01:46:09,240
Speaker 1: where we rank, you know, in the last three games,

2057
01:46:09,320 --> 01:46:12,160
Speaker 1: but it's better. Um. But it's the feel that we have.

2058
01:46:12,360 --> 01:46:16,080
Speaker 1: It's the chemistry in the locker room right now. You know,

2059
01:46:16,240 --> 01:46:19,360
Speaker 1: I get it that we're you know four and eight, Um,

2060
01:46:19,600 --> 01:46:22,080
Speaker 1: we've got four games left and you know there's still

2061
01:46:22,080 --> 01:46:25,880
Speaker 1: a lot to play for. You know, there's, um, you

2062
01:46:25,920 --> 01:46:27,720
Speaker 1: know a lot of a lot to play for. In

2063
01:46:27,800 --> 01:46:30,920
Speaker 1: my opinion, I'm learning to grow and trust and get

2064
01:46:31,000 --> 01:46:33,320
Speaker 1: better with with our teammates here and to trust what

2065
01:46:33,400 --> 01:46:36,559
Speaker 1: coach McDermott has for us and continue on this plan. Realize,

2066
01:46:36,720 --> 01:46:39,000
Speaker 1: with all the preparation we do to go to a game,

2067
01:46:39,200 --> 01:46:45,639
Speaker 1: there's a ploy your time on where is looking at spies?

2068
01:46:46,080 --> 01:46:49,400
Speaker 1: You know, for that defense got to fall in the

2069
01:46:49,520 --> 01:46:53,439
Speaker 1: spy line. How much time do you spend knowing what

2070
01:46:53,600 --> 01:46:56,120
Speaker 1: you can do with your legs, knowing they're going to

2071
01:46:56,160 --> 01:46:59,200
Speaker 1: be concerned about that you look at their guys that

2072
01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:04,240
Speaker 1: they employ spri I mean, I wouldn't go into that

2073
01:47:04,320 --> 01:47:07,320
Speaker 1: detail and just whether it they take that approach to

2074
01:47:07,439 --> 01:47:09,960
Speaker 1: put a spy and so that takes away from either

2075
01:47:10,040 --> 01:47:12,960
Speaker 1: one in coverage or one rushing the passer. So, um,

2076
01:47:13,120 --> 01:47:15,720
Speaker 1: it's definitely one of those situations where I don't think

2077
01:47:15,720 --> 01:47:17,960
Speaker 1: a team wants to do that. Sometimes they have to. Um,

2078
01:47:18,640 --> 01:47:20,479
Speaker 1: and like I said, that opens up something, you know,

2079
01:47:20,560 --> 01:47:21,960
Speaker 1: whether it's you get to stand in the pocket a

2080
01:47:22,000 --> 01:47:25,000
Speaker 1: little longer, or someone breaks free a little a little

2081
01:47:25,040 --> 01:47:29,040
Speaker 1: sooner than what's expected. So, um, you know it's one

2082
01:47:29,040 --> 01:47:30,720
Speaker 1: of those things where if they throw it at me, well,

2083
01:47:30,800 --> 01:47:34,639
Speaker 1: we'll be prepared for it and we'll act qarteringly down

2084
01:47:35,520 --> 01:47:37,400
Speaker 1: and you start to decide when they're not just the

2085
01:47:37,439 --> 01:47:39,680
Speaker 1: bting with it, is there a checklist in your head

2086
01:47:39,960 --> 01:47:43,000
Speaker 1: and you kind of oking quickly. Yeah. No, there's definitely

2087
01:47:43,080 --> 01:47:44,920
Speaker 1: a time clock that you know kind of goes off

2088
01:47:44,960 --> 01:47:47,400
Speaker 1: in every quarterback's mine, and um, it's usually in that

2089
01:47:47,520 --> 01:47:49,720
Speaker 1: second or third hitch where you've gone through your first

2090
01:47:49,800 --> 01:47:51,160
Speaker 1: or second read and you're trying to get back to

2091
01:47:51,200 --> 01:47:54,320
Speaker 1: your third. But um, sometimes you see an opening in

2092
01:47:54,400 --> 01:47:56,360
Speaker 1: the corner of your eye and you decide to take off.

2093
01:47:56,439 --> 01:47:59,760
Speaker 1: So it's definitely, uh an ability that's been learned over

2094
01:47:59,800 --> 01:48:02,600
Speaker 1: time time and just filling the pocket and um, like

2095
01:48:02,600 --> 01:48:04,280
Speaker 1: I said, trusting the guys on the backside or the

2096
01:48:04,320 --> 01:48:06,360
Speaker 1: front side wherever I'm going to and that they're doing

2097
01:48:06,400 --> 01:48:09,599
Speaker 1: their job and just trying to just trying to extend

2098
01:48:09,680 --> 01:48:13,400
Speaker 1: plays and just produce positive plays in that matter. There

2099
01:48:13,400 --> 01:48:15,880
Speaker 1: you go. Bill's quarterback Josh Allen, meeting with the media

2100
01:48:15,920 --> 01:48:19,080
Speaker 1: moments ago. John Murphy's steep tasker in our one Buffalo studio.

2101
01:48:19,120 --> 01:48:21,360
Speaker 1: It's practice wrapped up a few minutes ago, and that

2102
01:48:21,479 --> 01:48:23,479
Speaker 1: means we are joining in studio by one of our

2103
01:48:23,479 --> 01:48:26,280
Speaker 1: favorite guests. Whites stayed away from us for a while.

2104
01:48:26,600 --> 01:48:31,080
Speaker 1: Quarterback to Davious White. August thirteenth, almost four months ago,

2105
01:48:31,160 --> 01:48:34,040
Speaker 1: your last appearance on the show, What happened? Man? Four months?

2106
01:48:34,120 --> 01:48:40,840
Speaker 1: I think you found another You're having a great year. Congratulations, Yeah,

2107
01:48:40,840 --> 01:48:43,080
Speaker 1: appreciate it. What do you think? How is this you're

2108
01:48:43,120 --> 01:48:46,040
Speaker 1: going in your mind? So far? Uh, it's been going good.

2109
01:48:46,479 --> 01:48:48,800
Speaker 1: Just I'm not getting to takeaways that I got last year,

2110
01:48:48,880 --> 01:48:51,280
Speaker 1: but just from watching film by myself, I feel like

2111
01:48:51,360 --> 01:48:53,960
Speaker 1: I'm playing better. I got a great grasp of the

2112
01:48:54,040 --> 01:48:56,680
Speaker 1: defense and then I'm playing with more confidence. So, uh,

2113
01:48:57,600 --> 01:48:59,400
Speaker 1: the stats are not there like they were last year.

2114
01:48:59,439 --> 01:49:01,840
Speaker 1: But on FAM, I'm playing just just as great as

2115
01:49:01,880 --> 01:49:03,840
Speaker 1: I was last year, even better. It seems like to us,

2116
01:49:03,880 --> 01:49:05,920
Speaker 1: maybe you're not even getting their opportunities did last year.

2117
01:49:05,960 --> 01:49:08,680
Speaker 1: Last year, rookie, rookie, nobody knows you're deth throw at you.

2118
01:49:08,840 --> 01:49:10,880
Speaker 1: You know, this year maybe not so much. You know,

2119
01:49:10,960 --> 01:49:13,360
Speaker 1: they might say, you know what, I'm gonna go over here. Yeah,

2120
01:49:13,360 --> 01:49:15,680
Speaker 1: it's frustrating but you know that's what's coming with it.

2121
01:49:15,760 --> 01:49:17,439
Speaker 1: You know, I've been putting in a lot of hard work,

2122
01:49:17,520 --> 01:49:19,680
Speaker 1: you know, during the offseason and trying to become that

2123
01:49:19,760 --> 01:49:22,840
Speaker 1: type of player, and when the offense give me chances,

2124
01:49:22,840 --> 01:49:24,439
Speaker 1: I gotta just do a great job of just making

2125
01:49:24,439 --> 01:49:26,439
Speaker 1: them pay whenever they test me deep or you know,

2126
01:49:26,520 --> 01:49:28,320
Speaker 1: give me an opportunity to do to make a play.

2127
01:49:28,400 --> 01:49:30,360
Speaker 1: You do have the one interception against the Bears a

2128
01:49:30,360 --> 01:49:33,120
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. This team, however, has come up

2129
01:49:33,160 --> 01:49:36,120
Speaker 1: with picks interceptions in the last four games. I just

2130
01:49:36,320 --> 01:49:38,360
Speaker 1: noticed today the Bills are eleventh in the league. And

2131
01:49:38,439 --> 01:49:41,920
Speaker 1: the interception percentage, now the takeaways, you're coming along right, yeah.

2132
01:49:42,000 --> 01:49:44,439
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, whenever you have two safeties with

2133
01:49:44,600 --> 01:49:46,360
Speaker 1: range that we have in the back end, people are

2134
01:49:46,400 --> 01:49:48,200
Speaker 1: not going to test you deep, you know, like they

2135
01:49:48,240 --> 01:49:49,920
Speaker 1: did last year because they didn't know what to expect

2136
01:49:49,960 --> 01:49:51,920
Speaker 1: from those guys. But now we have two Pro Bowl

2137
01:49:51,960 --> 01:49:54,439
Speaker 1: calibery players back there, and you know you tested deep.

2138
01:49:54,479 --> 01:49:56,280
Speaker 1: You know that's what's gonna happen. Then you know, we

2139
01:49:56,720 --> 01:49:58,560
Speaker 1: have a great front seven, a great front four to

2140
01:49:58,600 --> 01:50:00,840
Speaker 1: get pressure on the quarterback. They college ob so much

2141
01:50:00,880 --> 01:50:03,000
Speaker 1: more easy. You called it in your appearance on the

2142
01:50:03,040 --> 01:50:04,680
Speaker 1: show back in August, and we asked you for a

2143
01:50:04,800 --> 01:50:07,040
Speaker 1: nickname for the Buffalo secondary. Listen to this. This is

2144
01:50:07,120 --> 01:50:10,439
Speaker 1: what Tredavia said to us four months ago asking for

2145
01:50:10,479 --> 01:50:13,320
Speaker 1: a nickname for the Buffalo defensive backfield. Here's what he

2146
01:50:13,400 --> 01:50:17,880
Speaker 1: came up with. What you think about the bill collectors? Oh?

2147
01:50:18,560 --> 01:50:21,960
Speaker 1: I like that? You like that? Huh m? You know

2148
01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:26,760
Speaker 1: you like that? I like that? One? Who came up

2149
01:50:26,760 --> 01:50:28,439
Speaker 1: with that? You did? I did? Yeah? I need a

2150
01:50:29,880 --> 01:50:35,320
Speaker 1: dying any ideas? Nah? You know, bill collectors? Where's the

2151
01:50:35,360 --> 01:50:38,360
Speaker 1: creativity back there? That's great? Look at the bid I'm

2152
01:50:38,360 --> 01:50:40,360
Speaker 1: saying yours is good. Where where are they coming? They

2153
01:50:40,400 --> 01:50:42,160
Speaker 1: gotta come. They came with something, but mine was just

2154
01:50:42,240 --> 01:50:46,080
Speaker 1: over the top, you know, like you go the bill collectors?

2155
01:50:46,160 --> 01:50:47,840
Speaker 1: You called? I was wrong. The Bills are six in

2156
01:50:47,880 --> 01:50:50,519
Speaker 1: the league and interception percentage. You guys are coming up

2157
01:50:50,560 --> 01:50:52,840
Speaker 1: with picks now two against the Jets last time you

2158
01:50:52,960 --> 01:50:55,000
Speaker 1: played them. Yeah, I mean you know that's that's the

2159
01:50:55,080 --> 01:50:56,800
Speaker 1: goal as a defense, to take the ball away each

2160
01:50:56,800 --> 01:50:59,160
Speaker 1: and every each and every game. And I'll go, you know,

2161
01:50:59,479 --> 01:51:01,479
Speaker 1: going to game is to take the ball away at

2162
01:51:01,520 --> 01:51:03,920
Speaker 1: least two times a game and you get yourself a

2163
01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:05,960
Speaker 1: significant chance to win if you take the ball away

2164
01:51:06,040 --> 01:51:07,800
Speaker 1: more you give it away. So you know that's going

2165
01:51:07,880 --> 01:51:09,880
Speaker 1: into every game. We want to end the game with

2166
01:51:10,000 --> 01:51:12,679
Speaker 1: plus two and take away. You mentioned at the front seven,

2167
01:51:12,720 --> 01:51:14,960
Speaker 1: they're playing good. You guys gotta go on the back end.

2168
01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:18,840
Speaker 1: What's the biggest difference between last year's defensive was ranked

2169
01:51:18,960 --> 01:51:21,439
Speaker 1: like twenty six in the league and now this year

2170
01:51:21,600 --> 01:51:23,760
Speaker 1: you're number two in the League's the What do you

2171
01:51:23,880 --> 01:51:26,000
Speaker 1: notice if you if you you know you played in

2172
01:51:26,080 --> 01:51:28,680
Speaker 1: both defenses, what's the big difference? You know, guys are

2173
01:51:28,680 --> 01:51:30,400
Speaker 1: just running to the ball. We were running to the

2174
01:51:30,439 --> 01:51:32,600
Speaker 1: ball and balls are just flying out and were just

2175
01:51:33,560 --> 01:51:35,439
Speaker 1: getting to them and we're just collecting them. And I

2176
01:51:35,520 --> 01:51:37,360
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, everybody's doing a great job of

2177
01:51:37,439 --> 01:51:39,080
Speaker 1: just buying in. This is the second year, you know,

2178
01:51:39,200 --> 01:51:41,400
Speaker 1: under this defense, and you know the guys that came

2179
01:51:41,439 --> 01:51:43,640
Speaker 1: in last year with with coach mcdermoty, we just did

2180
01:51:43,680 --> 01:51:45,320
Speaker 1: a great job of taking the new guys on all

2181
01:51:45,360 --> 01:51:47,560
Speaker 1: weeks and then just shouting the Bill's way and just

2182
01:51:47,840 --> 01:51:49,600
Speaker 1: running to the ball, each of them. Every player just

2183
01:51:49,720 --> 01:51:53,439
Speaker 1: playing with relention as effort. Bill's cornerback Tnevius White is

2184
01:51:53,479 --> 01:51:55,400
Speaker 1: our guests talking about the new guys. One of them

2185
01:51:55,560 --> 01:51:58,000
Speaker 1: is opposite you, and I wonder your thoughts about the

2186
01:51:58,320 --> 01:52:00,320
Speaker 1: rookie Levi Wallace, what you see from him, and now

2187
01:52:00,360 --> 01:52:02,280
Speaker 1: maybe you've worked with him over the first few weeks

2188
01:52:02,280 --> 01:52:04,840
Speaker 1: ago when Levi first came in and uh, you know

2189
01:52:05,160 --> 01:52:07,960
Speaker 1: OTAs I mean, after the draft process and he came

2190
01:52:08,000 --> 01:52:09,840
Speaker 1: in and we started to work. I said, he's gonna

2191
01:52:09,840 --> 01:52:11,760
Speaker 1: be good. You know, he had he was raw, but

2192
01:52:12,040 --> 01:52:14,000
Speaker 1: he come from a winning program, and he comes from

2193
01:52:14,080 --> 01:52:16,439
Speaker 1: a of a place, you know, where they just put

2194
01:52:16,479 --> 01:52:18,799
Speaker 1: out winners. And he came in with a great attitude,

2195
01:52:18,800 --> 01:52:21,000
Speaker 1: with the right mindset, and he worked and they put

2196
01:52:21,080 --> 01:52:22,920
Speaker 1: him on the practice squad. He worked for the first

2197
01:52:23,200 --> 01:52:25,240
Speaker 1: eight or nine weeks when he was on the practice squad,

2198
01:52:25,400 --> 01:52:27,160
Speaker 1: and he worked his way until you know, being a

2199
01:52:27,160 --> 01:52:29,639
Speaker 1: starting corner. And he's been doing a great job for us. Yeah,

2200
01:52:29,680 --> 01:52:31,760
Speaker 1: you are getting You do have some guys who kind

2201
01:52:31,800 --> 01:52:34,280
Speaker 1: of showed up and for Bill's fans out of nowhere

2202
01:52:34,400 --> 01:52:36,800
Speaker 1: kind of now you lost it got Terren Johnson had

2203
01:52:36,800 --> 01:52:40,519
Speaker 1: a shoulder surgery. What's this? He gutted it out for

2204
01:52:40,640 --> 01:52:43,080
Speaker 1: a long time. Ride He really earned some respect in

2205
01:52:43,120 --> 01:52:45,040
Speaker 1: the lock for the way he played. Yeah, he's definitely

2206
01:52:45,080 --> 01:52:47,040
Speaker 1: one of the most toughest guys that I ever played with.

2207
01:52:47,479 --> 01:52:50,120
Speaker 1: Besides he and the guy, the guy who's gonna face

2208
01:52:50,200 --> 01:52:52,920
Speaker 1: this year, I mean this Weekend, Jamal Adams. Those are

2209
01:52:52,960 --> 01:52:56,400
Speaker 1: the two toughest competitors that I've ever seen that I've

2210
01:52:56,479 --> 01:52:58,599
Speaker 1: been around toughest football players as far as just going

2211
01:52:58,680 --> 01:53:00,479
Speaker 1: in and just don't care about it, to just lay

2212
01:53:00,520 --> 01:53:03,040
Speaker 1: the body on the line, I think tearing towards Uh.

2213
01:53:03,560 --> 01:53:05,280
Speaker 1: He showed his label the first week of the season.

2214
01:53:05,280 --> 01:53:07,320
Speaker 1: He's been playing at a high level every since since

2215
01:53:07,600 --> 01:53:09,560
Speaker 1: that that week. So it just goes to show you

2216
01:53:09,600 --> 01:53:11,479
Speaker 1: what type of caliber player that he is. And but

2217
01:53:11,600 --> 01:53:13,040
Speaker 1: we got a great guy that's coming in for on

2218
01:53:13,200 --> 01:53:15,760
Speaker 1: Refel Bush. He's a gamer, he can play nickel, he

2219
01:53:15,800 --> 01:53:17,840
Speaker 1: can play safety. So he's been around for a long

2220
01:53:17,920 --> 01:53:19,760
Speaker 1: time and he can play at a high level. You

2221
01:53:19,840 --> 01:53:22,120
Speaker 1: mentioned Jamal Adams. They just started looking at this week

2222
01:53:22,400 --> 01:53:24,719
Speaker 1: Jets video and every time you look at the Jets

2223
01:53:24,920 --> 01:53:26,840
Speaker 1: the last two years now, he just jumps out. He

2224
01:53:27,000 --> 01:53:29,600
Speaker 1: is a he's like a man among boys most of

2225
01:53:29,640 --> 01:53:31,960
Speaker 1: the time. Man. I mean, he played with relentless effa

2226
01:53:32,040 --> 01:53:34,080
Speaker 1: man each and every player he's gonna come with it.

2227
01:53:34,280 --> 01:53:36,599
Speaker 1: He's gonna no matter the circumstances of the game, he's

2228
01:53:36,640 --> 01:53:38,040
Speaker 1: gonna give you his best and he's gonna give you

2229
01:53:38,120 --> 01:53:39,880
Speaker 1: as all and h you know, I played with him

2230
01:53:39,880 --> 01:53:41,840
Speaker 1: for three years and we talked almost every day, so

2231
01:53:42,120 --> 01:53:43,519
Speaker 1: you know, that's one of the guys that you know

2232
01:53:43,680 --> 01:53:45,400
Speaker 1: that I pretty much talked to all the time, and

2233
01:53:45,800 --> 01:53:48,160
Speaker 1: I always wish him the best, and we wish he

2234
01:53:48,160 --> 01:53:50,080
Speaker 1: said it the best. So it's good. It's good to

2235
01:53:50,120 --> 01:53:51,960
Speaker 1: have had like that. I had the Jet game last

2236
01:53:51,960 --> 01:53:54,400
Speaker 1: week in Nashville and we were talking to you know,

2237
01:53:54,479 --> 01:53:56,920
Speaker 1: Todd Bowles and their coaching staff and Casey Rodgers, their

2238
01:53:56,960 --> 01:54:00,280
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator. They couldn't say enough about him, and they

2239
01:54:00,320 --> 01:54:01,800
Speaker 1: and they went so far as they listen, he's a

2240
01:54:01,840 --> 01:54:04,439
Speaker 1: different cat. He's a different breed of cat. I mean,

2241
01:54:04,560 --> 01:54:08,000
Speaker 1: he had the whole defense takes it's que from that

2242
01:54:08,040 --> 01:54:10,880
Speaker 1: and that's hard to do for a safety. You know,

2243
01:54:10,920 --> 01:54:13,160
Speaker 1: a guy who plays in the back end to half

2244
01:54:13,240 --> 01:54:15,880
Speaker 1: sway over the front seven where those guys say, were

2245
01:54:15,920 --> 01:54:18,120
Speaker 1: you you know what about it? And he's the guy

2246
01:54:18,200 --> 01:54:20,080
Speaker 1: they go to and he does it with his play

2247
01:54:20,120 --> 01:54:22,240
Speaker 1: and his and his effort in his attitude. Yeah, most definitely.

2248
01:54:22,280 --> 01:54:25,160
Speaker 1: I mean he has the mindset, just a championship mindset. Uh,

2249
01:54:25,479 --> 01:54:27,680
Speaker 1: just going out there, no matter what's the circumstance, He's

2250
01:54:27,720 --> 01:54:29,120
Speaker 1: gonna give you his all. Like he said when he

2251
01:54:29,240 --> 01:54:31,839
Speaker 1: came in, I was a sophomore, Lsu came as a freshman.

2252
01:54:32,000 --> 01:54:34,120
Speaker 1: You just knew he had the it factor just from

2253
01:54:34,160 --> 01:54:35,960
Speaker 1: the first day we put on pass him and Leonard

2254

2257
01:54:44,880 --> 01:54:47,720
Speaker 1: Jets practice is that Sam Darnald got the first team

2258
01:54:47,800 --> 01:54:50,360
Speaker 1: reps early on in practice at quarterback. So it looks

2259
01:54:50,400 --> 01:54:52,080
Speaker 1: like you'll see a different quarterback now than you did

2260
01:54:52,120 --> 01:54:53,840
Speaker 1: a month ago. Again said Jets, what do you how

2261
01:54:53,880 --> 01:54:55,120
Speaker 1: do you get ready for Donald? What do you know

2262
01:54:55,160 --> 01:54:56,720
Speaker 1: about him? What do you expect? We just got to

2263
01:54:56,720 --> 01:54:58,120
Speaker 1: go back and watch the film, you know, from the

2264
01:54:58,240 --> 01:54:59,640
Speaker 1: last game he played, I think the last game he

2265
01:54:59,720 --> 01:55:02,600
Speaker 1: played US the US the Miami game, and uh, you know,

2266
01:55:03,320 --> 01:55:04,680
Speaker 1: if we go back and watch that film and just

2267
01:55:04,720 --> 01:55:06,720
Speaker 1: see what type of things that they did. But also

2268
01:55:06,840 --> 01:55:09,280
Speaker 1: his number, the main receiver wasn't playing the last time,

2269
01:55:10,040 --> 01:55:13,760
Speaker 1: and yeah, it's gonna be a totally different you know,

2270
01:55:14,200 --> 01:55:16,040
Speaker 1: they're not gonna do different things on offense, but it's

2271
01:55:16,040 --> 01:55:17,520
Speaker 1: gonna be a different person there. So we just got

2272
01:55:17,640 --> 01:55:19,120
Speaker 1: to get ready for that. Yeah, and that's what you

2273
01:55:19,240 --> 01:55:20,800
Speaker 1: kind of when you watch film. Not only do you

2274
01:55:20,840 --> 01:55:24,320
Speaker 1: study the schemes the XS knows, but Robbie Anderson can go.

2275
01:55:24,520 --> 01:55:26,680
Speaker 1: He's he's he's got some speed, and Quincy and Noon

2276
01:55:26,760 --> 01:55:31,560
Speaker 1: Wall is a big, strong running back type wide receiver. Yeah,

2277
01:55:31,600 --> 01:55:33,600
Speaker 1: so we gotta get ready for it. Uh. You know,

2278
01:55:33,720 --> 01:55:35,400
Speaker 1: Robbie is a guy that's take the top off the

2279
01:55:35,440 --> 01:55:37,680
Speaker 1: defense and eighty one he's a big, strong, physical guy

2280
01:55:37,720 --> 01:55:39,920
Speaker 1: that's gonna try to push you over at the line

2281
01:55:39,920 --> 01:55:41,480
Speaker 1: of stream. And so we just gotta be ready for

2336
01:58:00,560 --> 01:58:02,360
Speaker 1: they didn't They didn't come out with the victory. So

2337
01:58:02,760 --> 01:58:04,720
Speaker 1: when I stopped going, they start winning. So I said,

2338
01:58:04,720 --> 01:58:07,960
Speaker 1: I told everybody, I'm stay away until we're in that

2339
01:58:08,040 --> 01:58:11,720
Speaker 1: superstitious mindset here too, for a lot of reasons, having

2340
01:58:11,800 --> 01:58:14,360
Speaker 1: mostly do with our with our Twitter poll. Yeah, but

2341
01:58:15,040 --> 01:58:17,840
Speaker 1: well we won't get into that anymore, he Tredavius. On

2342
01:58:17,920 --> 01:58:20,480
Speaker 1: a slightly more serious note. The Pro Bowl. The balloting

2343
01:58:20,560 --> 01:58:23,080
Speaker 1: continues now for another couple of weeks. I haven't looked

2344
01:58:23,160 --> 01:58:26,640
Speaker 1: lately at the balloting, but I mean you, if anybody

2345
01:58:26,720 --> 01:58:28,400
Speaker 1: has a case to be in the Pro Bowl right now,

2346
01:58:28,720 --> 01:58:30,240
Speaker 1: it would be you. In the year you've had. Now,

2347
01:58:30,320 --> 01:58:32,200
Speaker 1: you mentioned the interceptions are down, but you're not getting

2348
01:58:32,240 --> 01:58:34,280
Speaker 1: thrown at as much. Right The people pick up on

2349
01:58:34,400 --> 01:58:36,640
Speaker 1: they appreciate that. I feel I felt like last year

2350
01:58:36,680 --> 01:58:39,240
Speaker 1: I was snubbed a little bit. I feel like I

2351
01:58:39,360 --> 01:58:41,520
Speaker 1: was stuck, you know, But uh, I think you were.

2352
01:58:41,880 --> 01:58:43,880
Speaker 1: I think I think that you know, you gotta you

2353
01:58:43,960 --> 01:58:45,520
Speaker 1: just gotta pay your dudes. You know you're coming in

2354
01:58:45,960 --> 01:58:47,760
Speaker 1: the first year. They you gotta just kind of get

2355
01:58:47,800 --> 01:58:49,680
Speaker 1: earned a little respect around the league. And I feel

2356
01:58:49,680 --> 01:58:52,200
Speaker 1: like this year, the way I'm playing, just the percentages

2357
01:58:52,240 --> 01:58:54,560
Speaker 1: and all the all the stuff that you know you

2358
01:58:54,640 --> 01:58:57,640
Speaker 1: see on film, just with me, just how I'm covering

2359
01:58:57,720 --> 01:59:00,160
Speaker 1: my guys and just you know, just playing at a

2360
01:59:00,240 --> 01:59:02,600
Speaker 1: high level. I feel like, you know, my players should

2361
01:59:02,800 --> 01:59:04,880
Speaker 1: you know, get me in there this year. But you know,

2362
01:59:05,120 --> 01:59:07,360
Speaker 1: different people look at different things. I tell people all

2363
01:59:07,400 --> 01:59:09,600
Speaker 1: the time, just because the guy has you know, seven

2364
01:59:09,760 --> 01:59:12,000
Speaker 1: eight nine interceptions and the year, don't mean that he's

2365
01:59:12,040 --> 01:59:16,360
Speaker 1: playing great football most cases don't. But so getting thrown

2366
01:59:16,360 --> 01:59:18,240
Speaker 1: out a lot, Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So I mean,

2367
01:59:18,440 --> 01:59:20,920
Speaker 1: I just hope you know that the people respect my film,

2368
01:59:21,040 --> 01:59:23,120
Speaker 1: my game film, my peers, respect my game fam and

2369
01:59:23,200 --> 01:59:26,400
Speaker 1: get me in there. But Xavien Howard, I thought about

2370
01:59:26,520 --> 01:59:29,720
Speaker 1: him last week. Ven he got seven picks, but he's

2371
01:59:29,720 --> 01:59:31,400
Speaker 1: playing at a great levels. He's not one of the

2372
01:59:31,440 --> 01:59:34,000
Speaker 1: guys that just you know, father, he's going to get

2373
01:59:34,120 --> 01:59:36,680
Speaker 1: him better than you. Yeah, I don't. I feel like

2374
01:59:36,720 --> 01:59:38,280
Speaker 1: I'm one of the best in the league. So but

2375
01:59:38,520 --> 01:59:41,400
Speaker 1: you know, this guy right here went to seven Pro Bowls. Yeah,

2376
01:59:41,480 --> 01:59:43,920
Speaker 1: and he deserved every one of them. He can tell

2377
01:59:43,960 --> 01:59:47,280
Speaker 1: these stories though, about how players would campaign and get

2378
01:59:47,360 --> 01:59:49,440
Speaker 1: on the phone right and call other teams and say, hey,

2379
01:59:49,480 --> 01:59:51,800
Speaker 1: you vote for our guy, will vote for your game. Right, Well,

2380
01:59:51,920 --> 01:59:54,320
Speaker 1: I don't know about that, but I'll tell you this.

2381
01:59:54,400 --> 01:59:57,720
Speaker 1: I will say this as a rule general rule, you

2382
01:59:57,880 --> 02:00:01,200
Speaker 1: play really good one year, like the first year you

2383
02:00:01,320 --> 02:00:04,160
Speaker 1: play really well, then that's gets you on the radar.

2384
02:00:04,320 --> 02:00:06,520
Speaker 1: Like last year, you just get Then the next year

2385
02:00:07,360 --> 02:00:08,720
Speaker 1: they go, you know what, that guy needs to go,

2386
02:00:08,840 --> 02:00:11,240
Speaker 1: so you go. And then at the other end when

2387
02:00:11,280 --> 02:00:13,400
Speaker 1: you don't, when you don't go, you still go one

2388
02:00:13,480 --> 02:00:16,600
Speaker 1: more year because they think, well, no, Noah, that's the guy, right.

2389
02:00:16,760 --> 02:00:18,680
Speaker 1: So that's and that's what happened to me too. So

2390
02:00:19,200 --> 02:00:21,960
Speaker 1: you know, you can probably helps with a campaign effort.

2391
02:00:22,000 --> 02:00:23,920
Speaker 1: I mean, seven Pro Bowls and why don't you help him.

2392
02:00:23,920 --> 02:00:25,360
Speaker 1: You're trying to get me in the Hall of Fame.

2393
02:00:26,400 --> 02:00:29,680

2399
02:00:40,920 --> 02:00:42,600
Speaker 1: to keep your eye because if it does turn into

2400
02:00:42,600 --> 02:00:44,600
Speaker 1: a superstitious thing, we'll keep our eyes out. And when

2406
02:00:58,880 --> 02:01:14,520
Speaker 1: Buff Little Bills Radio that the one Goes Live Chamber

2407
02:01:14,640 --> 02:01:17,640
Speaker 1: received Tasker. This is why, among many reasons, why we

2408
02:01:17,720 --> 02:01:19,800
Speaker 1: need more turns White on the show. When he leaves,

2409
02:01:19,840 --> 02:01:22,360
Speaker 1: everybody's in a better mood. You have. Seriously, the guys

2410
02:01:22,400 --> 02:01:25,520
Speaker 1: unbelievable love Turdevious White. I love having him on the show.

2411
02:01:25,960 --> 02:01:28,280
Speaker 1: August what did I say? Thirteenth his last appearance, and

2412
02:01:28,320 --> 02:01:31,040
Speaker 1: he's talking about the bill collectors looking for a nickname.

2413
02:01:31,480 --> 02:01:33,320
Speaker 1: Love having Tredevious White on the show, and I look

2414
02:01:33,360 --> 02:01:38,360
Speaker 1: forward to that Goaltending Academy PSA apparently, huh yeah, it'll

2415
02:01:38,400 --> 02:01:40,240
Speaker 1: be fun. You know they had, they had a good

2416
02:01:40,320 --> 02:01:43,000
Speaker 1: time with it, and uh yeah, at the very end

2417
02:01:43,040 --> 02:01:44,880
Speaker 1: of those of them watching on MSG, you saw the

2418
02:01:44,920 --> 02:01:49,280
Speaker 1: little little badge Tevis White was what was it? He

2419
02:01:49,360 --> 02:01:53,240
Speaker 1: was like an all star goaltender and they said zero

2420
02:01:53,400 --> 02:01:56,240
Speaker 1: goals at goals allowed in his high school career and

2421
02:01:56,280 --> 02:01:58,960
Speaker 1: then it says zero games played. Yeah, so you know,

2422
02:01:59,040 --> 02:02:01,200
Speaker 1: it was great in that video and they probably don't

2423
02:02:01,240 --> 02:02:03,120
Speaker 1: have time maybe they have time to reque it. But

2424
02:02:03,280 --> 02:02:05,400
Speaker 1: and if you're watching on MSG, or if you're not,

2425
02:02:05,480 --> 02:02:08,160
Speaker 1: I apologize. But there's a shot of Tredevius right here

2426
02:02:08,160 --> 02:02:10,640
Speaker 1: in the field house in full goaltending gear trying to,

2427
02:02:11,160 --> 02:02:13,760
Speaker 1: you know, handle some pucks and at one point I

2428
02:02:13,760 --> 02:02:15,360
Speaker 1: didn't even know who the player was. One of his

2429
02:02:15,600 --> 02:02:17,680
Speaker 1: Bills teammates walks by him and just looks at him, like,

2430
02:02:18,080 --> 02:02:20,760
Speaker 1: what the heck is this. It's just a great log.

2431
02:02:21,040 --> 02:02:23,040
Speaker 1: Maybe it's I hope it's not too long into this piece,

2432
02:02:23,440 --> 02:02:25,120
Speaker 1: but it's a great look from one of his team

2433
02:02:25,160 --> 02:02:27,600
Speaker 1: and it's just like what is going on? Here's got

2434
02:02:27,640 --> 02:02:30,520
Speaker 1: the equipment on inside the field house and dressing up

2435
02:02:30,560 --> 02:02:33,880
Speaker 1: like a goaltender. It's of all the things for him

2436
02:02:33,920 --> 02:02:38,960
Speaker 1: to get fixated on two NHL goaltending look at players

2437
02:02:39,000 --> 02:02:42,240
Speaker 1: just looking at him like what Ray, Ray McCloud walking,

2438
02:02:43,440 --> 02:02:45,680
Speaker 1: What is going on? Ray's thinking, I'm a rookie? Is

2439
02:02:45,720 --> 02:02:49,240
Speaker 1: this normal? Yeah? Anyway, he's a lot of fun. Love

2440
02:02:49,280 --> 02:02:50,920
Speaker 1: having Tredevious on the show. We'll get him on if

2441
02:02:50,920 --> 02:02:52,560
Speaker 1: you get some picks. We'll get him on, probably sooner

2442
02:02:52,680 --> 02:02:56,400
Speaker 1: rather than later. Hey, Chris Brown, Bills Insider Buffalo Bills

Speaker 1: dot Com joins us every week for a conversation with

2444
02:02:59,120 --> 02:03:01,880
Speaker 1: the head coach, Sean McDermott, and we play a little

2445
02:03:01,960 --> 02:03:04,080
Speaker 1: game trying to determine whether either one of them is

2446
02:03:04,120 --> 02:03:06,840
Speaker 1: even gonna look at the cup of Tim Horton's coffee

2447
02:03:06,840 --> 02:03:08,440
Speaker 1: they have in front of him, play along with us.

2448
02:03:08,680 --> 02:03:10,920
Speaker 1: Coffee with the Coach presented by Tim Horton's Cafe in

2449
02:03:10,960 --> 02:03:15,640
Speaker 1: Bake Shop, the official coffee of the Buffalo Bills. Hello everybody,

2450
02:03:15,680 --> 02:03:18,320
Speaker 1: Welcome to the week fourteen edition of Coffee with the Coach,

2451
02:03:18,400 --> 02:03:21,320
Speaker 1: presented by Tim Hortons. I'm Chris Brown, joined by Bill's

2452
02:03:21,320 --> 02:03:23,600
Speaker 1: head coach Sean McDermott as the Bills are back in

2453
02:03:23,680 --> 02:03:25,720
Speaker 1: New air of Field for a one pm kickoff in

2454
02:03:25,800 --> 02:03:29,400
Speaker 1: a rematch with the Jets on Sunday. Coaches always thanks

2455
02:03:29,440 --> 02:03:32,040
Speaker 1: for being with us, So, coach, let's begin with Josh

2456
02:03:32,120 --> 02:03:35,960
Speaker 1: Allen's rushing exploits. They're bound to garner more attention with

2457
02:03:36,080 --> 02:03:38,240
Speaker 1: each passing week. Now with the numbers he's putting up,

2458
02:03:38,240 --> 02:03:40,160
Speaker 1: they're watching him on film going, oh boy, what are

2459
02:03:40,200 --> 02:03:44,240
Speaker 1: we doing here? So where does Josh have to take

2460
02:03:44,360 --> 02:03:48,240
Speaker 1: his game going forward? No one, he's taking that we're

2461
02:03:48,320 --> 02:03:51,640
Speaker 1: gonna get that kind of attention. Well, it's a valid question, Chris.

2462
02:03:51,720 --> 02:03:54,160
Speaker 1: I mean being around two mobile quarterbacks in my history

2463
02:03:54,200 --> 02:03:57,680
Speaker 1: with Donovan and Cam Newton both, it's a conversation that

2464
02:03:57,760 --> 02:03:59,840
Speaker 1: really never goes away. How much running is not an

2465
02:04:00,080 --> 02:04:02,720
Speaker 1: how much running is too much? And making sure that

2466
02:04:02,800 --> 02:04:05,680
Speaker 1: a young quarterback continues to develop from the pocket. And

2467
02:04:06,040 --> 02:04:07,800
Speaker 1: I think we've seen that to this point, and he

2468
02:04:07,840 --> 02:04:10,360
Speaker 1: has to continue to grow. There's certainly opportunities out there

2469
02:04:10,440 --> 02:04:13,120
Speaker 1: that we didn't take advantage of in the last game

2470
02:04:13,160 --> 02:04:16,000
Speaker 1: and that he must learn to take advantage of. Was

2471
02:04:16,040 --> 02:04:18,200
Speaker 1: we moving forward? Flipping it to the other side, your

2472
02:04:18,240 --> 02:04:22,960
Speaker 1: past defense performing at a level that really neutralizes the opposition.

2473
02:04:23,080 --> 02:04:27,360
Speaker 1: How much did going against quarterbacks like Philip Rivers, Kirk Cousins,

2474
02:04:27,480 --> 02:04:29,560
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, Andrew Luck in the first half of the

2475
02:04:29,600 --> 02:04:33,160
Speaker 1: season kind of galvanize and battle tests that group where

2476
02:04:33,680 --> 02:04:35,560
Speaker 1: I mean they're like air tight. Now, Yeah, that was

2477
02:04:35,680 --> 02:04:40,280
Speaker 1: baptism under fire. Those are great quarterbacks and for a

2478
02:04:40,400 --> 02:04:43,400
Speaker 1: young group, it was good for us to get that

2479
02:04:43,480 --> 02:04:46,320
Speaker 1: early in the season. Although very challenging. We learned some

2480
02:04:46,440 --> 02:04:49,440
Speaker 1: valuable lessons and we'll continue to learn some lessons as

2481
02:04:49,520 --> 02:04:53,360
Speaker 1: we grow and moving forward. Here speaking of quarterbacks, the

2482
02:04:53,480 --> 02:04:56,360
Speaker 1: rematch with the Jets here this week, even though it's

2483
02:04:56,360 --> 02:04:57,960
Speaker 1: a team you saw just three weeks ago, it looks

2484
02:04:57,960 --> 02:04:59,400
Speaker 1: like they're going to have a different quarterback on the

2485
02:04:59,440 --> 02:05:03,560
Speaker 1: field and Arnold rookie. Do you expect much to change

2486
02:05:03,600 --> 02:05:06,280
Speaker 1: with their approach offensively with him in the lineup as

2487
02:05:06,280 --> 02:05:09,880
Speaker 1: opposed to McCown. Not too much. Their system is their system.

2488
02:05:10,600 --> 02:05:13,200
Speaker 1: You know, had a chance to get to know Sam

2489
02:05:13,320 --> 02:05:16,240
Speaker 1: going through the process and the draft process in the spring.

2490
02:05:16,920 --> 02:05:20,240
Speaker 1: Good quarterback, young quarterback. It certainly has had some big

2491
02:05:20,280 --> 02:05:23,280
Speaker 1: time moments and then some throws and moments he'd like

2492
02:05:23,360 --> 02:05:25,400
Speaker 1: to have back, I'm sure, but we have a lot

2493
02:05:25,440 --> 02:05:27,560
Speaker 1: of respect for him and for Josh McCown whoever we

2494
02:05:27,640 --> 02:05:31,440
Speaker 1: see and the Jets as a whole. So they played

2495
02:05:31,480 --> 02:05:33,720
Speaker 1: some good ball. They took Tennessee to the end, and

2496
02:05:33,840 --> 02:05:35,120
Speaker 1: we've got to be ready. It's hard to beat a

2497
02:05:35,160 --> 02:05:37,240
Speaker 1: team twice in one season, let alone a couple of

2498
02:05:37,240 --> 02:05:39,080
Speaker 1: weeks apart. And with that in mind, just in your

2499
02:05:39,120 --> 02:05:43,280
Speaker 1: experience in general, to what degree was the first matchup

2500
02:05:43,440 --> 02:05:45,840
Speaker 1: and how things played out through the course of that

2501
02:05:46,040 --> 02:05:50,240
Speaker 1: game kind of impact plans for the second matchup, Well,

2502
02:05:50,320 --> 02:05:52,160
Speaker 1: they do and they don't. You want to look at

2503
02:05:52,240 --> 02:05:54,240
Speaker 1: what they did and what their plan was against us,

2504
02:05:54,280 --> 02:05:56,720
Speaker 1: and then what we had success with and what gave

2505
02:05:56,800 --> 02:05:59,200
Speaker 1: us problems. So we've got to make sure that we

2506
02:05:59,520 --> 02:06:02,680
Speaker 1: master us first in terms of fundamental techniques and the

2507
02:06:02,760 --> 02:06:05,840
Speaker 1: execution end of things. So you know, that's where we

2508
02:06:05,920 --> 02:06:08,240
Speaker 1: are in our growth and that's where our focus must be.

2509
02:06:08,440 --> 02:06:10,480
Speaker 1: All right, coach, thanks very much for the insight on that.

2510
02:06:10,640 --> 02:06:12,720
Speaker 1: Now it's time for our Fan Question of the Week,

2511
02:06:12,920 --> 02:06:15,240
Speaker 1: a chance for you the fan to ask coach a question.

2512
02:06:15,480 --> 02:06:18,280
Speaker 1: This week's question comes from Jeffrey on Twitter, and he

2513
02:06:18,400 --> 02:06:22,000
Speaker 1: asked coach. What can the coaching staff do, especially with

2514
02:06:22,120 --> 02:06:25,560
Speaker 1: the younger players, to reduce the number of penalties. Well,

2515
02:06:25,680 --> 02:06:28,560
Speaker 1: the biggest thing is teach number one to educate them

2516
02:06:28,680 --> 02:06:31,280
Speaker 1: on the impact that penalties have on the outcome of

2517
02:06:31,320 --> 02:06:33,680
Speaker 1: a game. And then also making sure that we are

2518
02:06:33,720 --> 02:06:38,200
Speaker 1: in better football position technique wise, alignment wise, and that's

2519
02:06:38,200 --> 02:06:40,600
Speaker 1: all part. Proud of their growth process and development as

2520
02:06:40,640 --> 02:06:42,920
Speaker 1: we move forward. All right, sounds good coach, Good look

2531
02:07:10,280 --> 02:07:12,920
Speaker 1: gone anywhere near it. So we got four more of these, right,

2532

Speaker 1: in the right direction. Yeah, all right, Time now for

2539
02:07:30,840 --> 02:07:34,320
Speaker 1: NFL true Why do you play along with me? Why

02:07:34,320 --> 02:07:36,800
Speaker 1: do you encourage me to NFL Truanvolves brought to you

2541
02:07:36,920 --> 02:07:41,280
Speaker 1: by Yancey's, Fancy New York's artists and cheese NFL items.

2542
02:07:41,480 --> 02:07:43,160
Speaker 1: Steve and I like to tell you what we think.

2543
02:07:43,200 --> 02:07:45,040
Speaker 1: Are they true? Are they falls? Here we go with one.

2544
02:07:45,360 --> 02:07:48,720
Speaker 1: So the Steelers blew the lead against San Diego on Sunday?

2545
02:07:49,000 --> 02:07:51,840
Speaker 1: And now do we believe that the Steelers are blowing it?

2546
02:07:52,920 --> 02:07:54,840
Speaker 1: There's an article in USA to the USA Today. It

2547
02:07:54,880 --> 02:07:58,440
Speaker 1: seems to come up with a lot of these crazy concepts. Headline,

2548
02:07:58,960 --> 02:08:00,840
Speaker 1: Steelers have the look of a team that's blowing it?

2549
02:08:02,200 --> 02:08:04,880
Speaker 1: Do they really Steelers look like a team that's blowing it?

2550
02:08:05,840 --> 02:08:08,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go false. Look they're not who they were

2551
02:08:09,080 --> 02:08:11,360
Speaker 1: maybe in the last three or four years. They're not

2552
02:08:11,440 --> 02:08:13,280
Speaker 1: blowing anything. I wouldn't rule them out yet. No, it's

2553
02:08:13,320 --> 02:08:15,480
Speaker 1: too early to say that. The Steelers. I'm not gonna

2554
02:08:15,480 --> 02:08:17,360
Speaker 1: tell you they're gonna win the Super Bowl. They're not.

2555
02:08:17,920 --> 02:08:20,400
Speaker 1: But they are who they are. The Steelers are who

2556
02:08:20,440 --> 02:08:23,400
Speaker 1: they are. They faded in crunch time again, second straight week.

2557
02:08:23,480 --> 02:08:25,880
Speaker 1: They've done that. But I don't think they're a team

2558
02:08:25,920 --> 02:08:28,000
Speaker 1: that's gonna blow it and miss the playoffs or anything.

2559
02:08:28,040 --> 02:08:30,320
Speaker 1: What do you think, Steve? I agree? I know they

2560
02:08:30,360 --> 02:08:31,920
Speaker 1: do not look like a team that's blowing it. They

2561
02:08:32,080 --> 02:08:33,960
Speaker 1: met they met a Charger team that is playing as

2562
02:08:34,000 --> 02:08:36,280
Speaker 1: well as anybody in the NFL. Lost and lost on

2563
02:08:36,360 --> 02:08:39,360
Speaker 1: a last second field goal. No, they're not blowing it.

2564
02:08:39,440 --> 02:08:41,480
Speaker 1: The Steelers are still a force to be reckoned with.

2565
02:08:41,520 --> 02:08:44,640
Speaker 1: They're probably gonna get a home playoff game. So yeah,

2566
02:08:44,720 --> 02:08:47,880
Speaker 1: I think they're far from a team that's blown it.

2567
02:08:48,680 --> 02:08:52,520
Speaker 1: And secondly, and lastly, and true or false, the Dallas

2568
02:08:52,600 --> 02:08:55,240
Speaker 1: Cowboys are the team that's gonna finish on top in

2569
02:08:55,320 --> 02:08:58,120
Speaker 1: the NFC East. Cowboys will win the NFC East. Do

2570
02:08:58,200 --> 02:09:01,320
Speaker 1: you believe that? What do you think? You're thinking? Hard?

2571
02:09:03,640 --> 02:09:08,680
Speaker 1: I'll say, no, good, I think. I wait, let me

2572
02:09:08,720 --> 02:09:10,160
Speaker 1: look at it. Let me look at the standings. Make

2573
02:09:10,200 --> 02:09:12,000
Speaker 1: sure I know exactly what I'm talking right now, you guys,

2574
02:09:12,040 --> 02:09:14,560
Speaker 1: the Cowboys was seven wins, five losses, the Eagles six

2575
02:09:14,640 --> 02:09:16,960
Speaker 1: and six, Redskins six and six, Giants four and eight.

2576
02:09:17,000 --> 02:09:20,840
Speaker 1: I'm telling you the Eagles are I thought too. Yeah,

2577
02:09:20,880 --> 02:09:23,640
Speaker 1: I think the Eagles are a game back. Um, yeah,

2578
02:09:23,800 --> 02:09:26,160
Speaker 1: I think the Eagles are the team still the team

2579
02:09:26,200 --> 02:09:28,600
Speaker 1: to beat. Dallas had a couple of nice games. I

2580
02:09:28,760 --> 02:09:31,600
Speaker 1: still I'm not as Dak Prescott believer, and that the

2581
02:09:31,680 --> 02:09:33,960
Speaker 1: fact that he can do it by himself. I know,

2582
02:09:34,120 --> 02:09:36,640
Speaker 1: Zeke Elliot. It's a really good running back. Of Their

2583
02:09:36,720 --> 02:09:39,360
Speaker 1: defense has played well at times. They put together a

2584
02:09:39,440 --> 02:09:41,480
Speaker 1: great performance a week or two ago against the New

2585
02:09:41,600 --> 02:09:44,920
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints. But no, I still think that defending champs

2586
02:09:45,120 --> 02:09:48,000
Speaker 1: are the guys you gotta bet on you too, um,

2587
02:09:48,160 --> 02:09:49,680
Speaker 1: just to win the division, not to go deep in

2588
02:09:49,720 --> 02:09:51,880
Speaker 1: the playoff, right, I'm just saying the division. I think

2589
02:09:51,920 --> 02:09:54,520
Speaker 1: the Eagles are still a better team than those other three,

2590
02:09:54,880 --> 02:09:57,040
Speaker 1: particularly the Redskin. The Redskins are off the map now

2591
02:09:57,120 --> 02:09:59,560
Speaker 1: with their third quarterback. There you go. NFL true false

2592
02:09:59,640 --> 02:10:02,720
Speaker 1: brought to by Yancey's Fancy New York's artists in chief

2593
02:10:02,760 --> 02:10:04,800
Speaker 1: Steve and I coming back with more One Bill's Live

2594
02:10:04,880 --> 02:10:21,400
Speaker 1: from One Bill's Drive and this is Buffalo Bill's Radio Time.

2595
02:10:21,480 --> 02:10:23,520
Speaker 1: Now for what have we learned from today's show. It

Speaker 1: be preferred Alarm at Home Theater provider of the Buffalo Bills.

2599
02:10:32,880 --> 02:10:35,440
Speaker 1: Thurman Thomas Hall of Famer joined us. In the first

2600
02:10:35,480 --> 02:10:37,680
Speaker 1: hour of the show. You talked about Josh Allen and

2601
02:10:37,760 --> 02:10:39,960
Speaker 1: where the Buffalo offense is right. Now, here's what Thurma

2602
02:10:40,000 --> 02:10:43,560
Speaker 1: had to say. I just like the way things have

2603
02:10:43,720 --> 02:10:46,440
Speaker 1: gone for him. I think Davil has really opened up

2604
02:10:46,440 --> 02:10:49,560
Speaker 1: the offense a little bit more, a lot more wide

2605
02:10:49,560 --> 02:10:53,640
Speaker 1: receiver package. I think that's why Kelvin Benjamin was released.

2606
02:10:53,720 --> 02:10:56,000
Speaker 1: Now you're gonna see You're probably gonna see five wives.

2607
02:10:56,080 --> 02:11:00,160
Speaker 1: Now you can very well possibly see that shady with

2608
02:11:00,280 --> 02:11:03,000
Speaker 1: shaded So I'm looking forward to it. I think it's

2609
02:11:03,360 --> 02:11:05,720
Speaker 1: a bright future for the Buffalo Bills franchise here in

2610
02:11:05,760 --> 02:11:09,160
Speaker 1: the city of Buffalo. Do you really do he really

2611
02:11:09,200 --> 02:11:11,560
Speaker 1: does Sturman Thomas. Also on the show today, Peter King

2612
02:11:11,920 --> 02:11:16,040
Speaker 1: from Football Morning in America, NFL, longtime NFL writer with

2613
02:11:16,240 --> 02:11:18,640
Speaker 1: NBC Sports and now with Pro Football Talk. He asked

2614
02:11:18,680 --> 02:11:22,040
Speaker 1: Peter King about which our Twitter poll question which quarterback

2615
02:11:22,040 --> 02:11:24,800
Speaker 1: among the rookies, the five first round rookies, which of

2616
02:11:24,880 --> 02:11:29,280
Speaker 1: them has the best future? Who's got the brightest future?

2617
02:11:29,360 --> 02:11:34,080
Speaker 1: Peter says it's Baker Mayfield of the Cleveland Browns. You know,

2618
02:11:34,160 --> 02:11:38,000
Speaker 1: I think he came into the NFL with the brightest future,

2619
02:11:39,920 --> 02:11:42,760
Speaker 1: and not just because he was the first pick in

2620
02:11:42,840 --> 02:11:46,840
Speaker 1: the draft. It's because I think he had the best

2621
02:11:46,920 --> 02:11:51,720
Speaker 1: combination of mobility, ability to throw down field, ability to

2622
02:11:51,840 --> 02:11:57,280
Speaker 1: lead a team accuracy, and I think much of that

2623
02:11:57,480 --> 02:12:02,280
Speaker 1: has played out since he's the playing Peter King. I

2624
02:12:02,360 --> 02:12:05,000
Speaker 1: don't always agree with Peter King, Steve, but I agree

2625
02:12:05,040 --> 02:12:07,600
Speaker 1: with him on this one. Which are the rookies and

2626
02:12:07,680 --> 02:12:10,160
Speaker 1: there's only seventy five percent of the season gone, But

2627
02:12:11,160 --> 02:12:13,280
Speaker 1: as we think about our Twitter poll and the responses

2628
02:12:13,280 --> 02:12:15,920
Speaker 1: we got from folks, which of the five first found

2629
02:12:16,160 --> 02:12:18,640
Speaker 1: quarterbacks as the brightest future? Yeah, I would go with

2630
02:12:18,680 --> 02:12:20,760
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. It's not a knock on Josh Allen I'd

2631
02:12:20,800 --> 02:12:23,160
Speaker 1: love what Josh Allen has done since he's back. But

2632
02:12:23,240 --> 02:12:25,840
Speaker 1: as Peter said, I do believe that Mayfield came into

2633
02:12:25,880 --> 02:12:30,000
Speaker 1: the season with the prospects of a brighter future just

2634
02:12:30,080 --> 02:12:33,520
Speaker 1: because of his background. On Twitter, most of our respondents

2635
02:12:33,560 --> 02:12:35,840
Speaker 1: said it was Josh Allen. We had a ton of votes,

2636
02:12:35,840 --> 02:12:38,720
Speaker 1: about a thousand votes. Sixty five percent responded that Josh

2637
02:12:38,760 --> 02:12:42,040
Speaker 1: Allen has the brighter future, thirty one percent say Baker Mayfield,

2638
02:12:42,080 --> 02:12:44,960
Speaker 1: two percent that's all say Sam Darnold, and two percent

2639
02:12:45,120 --> 02:12:47,280
Speaker 1: between the two of them, Josh Rosen and Lamar Jackson.

2640
02:12:47,520 --> 02:12:49,520
Speaker 1: But I would go for Mayfield. I think he's got

2641
02:12:49,560 --> 02:12:52,440
Speaker 1: the brightest future. Yeah, I think there's a big question

2642
02:12:52,520 --> 02:12:54,320
Speaker 1: mark behind Mayfield because he's going to get a new

2643
02:12:54,360 --> 02:12:56,640
Speaker 1: head coach this offseason. He's gonna be on just probably

2644
02:12:56,720 --> 02:12:59,760
Speaker 1: his second offensive coordinator in two years he's and I

2645
02:13:00,040 --> 02:13:04,800
Speaker 1: think that that is a hiccup to me. There's no

2646
02:13:04,920 --> 02:13:06,720
Speaker 1: question that what we saw with Hugh Jackson and what

2647
02:13:06,800 --> 02:13:08,360
Speaker 1: we have seen in other places in the league, most

2648
02:13:08,400 --> 02:13:11,080
Speaker 1: notably the LA Rams with Sean McVay as opposed to

2649
02:13:11,280 --> 02:13:13,760
Speaker 1: Jeff Fisher and their their staff that was there before them.

2650
02:13:14,320 --> 02:13:18,280
Speaker 1: Jared Goff proved and I think Baker Mayfield has proven too.

2651
02:13:18,560 --> 02:13:21,000
Speaker 1: There's a difference that coaching makes and how you handle

2652
02:13:21,080 --> 02:13:25,080
Speaker 1: young quarterbacks. And it remains to be seen who the

2653
02:13:25,160 --> 02:13:27,400
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns bring in. But I think that's the big

2654
02:13:27,480 --> 02:13:29,840
Speaker 1: question mark. But there's no question I've seen it in person.

2655
02:13:29,880 --> 02:13:32,560
Speaker 1: I've watched Baker Mayfield talk to him. That guy can go,

2656
02:13:32,880 --> 02:13:35,600
Speaker 1: and I think there's there's every reasonab believe he's gonna

2657
02:13:35,600 --> 02:13:38,080
Speaker 1: have a bright future. All Right, Hey, we got another

2658
02:13:38,080 --> 02:13:40,480
Speaker 1: show coming up here tomorrow. To news from the Bills today,

2659
02:13:40,640 --> 02:13:44,400
Speaker 1: No official practice participation report out yet, but the Bills

2660
02:13:44,440 --> 02:13:47,600
Speaker 1: were without Taron Johnson, got that shoulder injury, had surgery today,

2661
02:13:47,880 --> 02:13:50,680
Speaker 1: going to be out indefinitely. According to Sean McDermott did

2662
02:13:50,760 --> 02:13:53,160
Speaker 1: not practice at the hand. We kind of think it's

2663
02:13:53,200 --> 02:13:56,800
Speaker 1: it for him this season. So that's probably the biggest

2664
02:13:56,840 --> 02:13:59,480
Speaker 1: injury news from the Bills as they wrap up there Wednesday.

2665
