Things did not 43 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 9: go quite as well for a number of other teams yesterday. 44 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 9: There were some stinkers, yawser. Yeah, we'll get to those 45 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 9: in just a second, but first we want to bring 46 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 9: you the Bills news of the day. And it was 47 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 9: reported by some national newsmakers, including NFL Networks Mike Garrafolo 48 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 9: and ESPN's Adam Schefter. But tomar Hamlin will be inactive tonight, 49 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 9: and I know that may come as a surprise to 50 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 9: some fans. You know, tomar Hamlin has become a nationally 51 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 9: recognized face in light of all that happened last January 52 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 9: and his subsequent community efforts to spread the word about 53 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 9: hands only CPR and distributing AEDs to you know, camps 54 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 9: and boys and girls clubs and just about every facility 55 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 9: he could find that did not have one. That's what 56 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 9: he's done with a lot of the money that was 57 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 9: raised for his Chasing MS foundation. But Tomar Hamlin will 58 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 9: be inactive tonight. He apparently told the ESPN broadcasters in 59 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 9: a production meeting that he was not going to be 60 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 9: active tonight. He already got the word, presumably yesterday, And 61 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 9: this should not come as a terrible surprise, is the 62 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 9: reason why. And Steve, I know you're aware of this, 63 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 9: but cam Lewis had the best training camp of his 64 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 9: four year career. He also not only plays the safety position, 65 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 9: but nickel corner and in a pinch can play out 66 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 9: on the boundary, so he's a more versatile player as well. 67 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 9: And oh, by the way, he is now the new 68 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 9: Taiwan Jones on gunner opposite Saran Neil on coverage teams, 69 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 9: so he has earned the right to be up on 70 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 9: game day over somebody like Damar Hamlet. 71 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and that's how it works, as much as we 72 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 2: all want to see Damar come back and have a great, 73 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 2: you know, great career and help the Bills win games. 74 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: It was also Damar was like the third guy in 75 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 2: last year too. It was cam Lewis, it was Juwan 76 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 2: Juwan John Kwan Johns, Jakawan Johnson was in first. So 77 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 2: it was only after three guys got hurt that Damar 78 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 2: actually got to start in that game against Cincinnati, and 79 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 2: so some games are before that as well. So and 80 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 2: then when they signed Taylor Rapp, you knew they felt 81 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 2: because of the age of Hide and Poyer, they got 82 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 2: to listen. 83 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 8: We gotta be ready, you know. 84 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 2: Poyer gutted it out and played all seventeen game or 85 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 2: most of this season. Last year we missed Micah all season. 86 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 2: We were struggling to fill that role. We got to 87 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 2: find some guys. So the whole safety room got a 88 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 2: little bit a little more upheaval, and it was a 89 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 2: tough room to make, just like this entire roster. So 90 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 2: I don't think it's a real surprise that Tomorrow is 91 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 2: the last guy in and on game day with it, 92 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 2: like you said, with cam Lewis being a guy on 93 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 2: special teams who stepped up and also had the great 94 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 2: training camp. Sean mcdermer got to look and say, look 95 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 2: around the locker room, say he's got a responsibility the 96 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 2: other fifty two guys on that roster to make sure 97 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 2: they got the best combination to try and win. That 98 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 2: doesn't mean demor Hamlin's never gonna play all year, but 99 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 2: in this opening game. They gotta use training camp as 100 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 2: what it is, an evaluation process and let guys earn 101 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 2: their way on the field. 102 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 9: Yeah, but I would say more often than not, if 103 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 9: there are no injuries at the safety position, am Lewis 104 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 9: is your fourth safety is going to be up just 105 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 9: by virtue of his versatility and the way he performed 106 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 9: through the course of the preseason. Right now, that can 107 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 9: change through the course of the regular season because they 108 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 9: evaluate all through the practice week, each and every week, 109 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 9: and things do morph and change as the season wears on. 110 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 8: But that's how it looks like it's going to be 111 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 8: four now. 112 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 9: There were three players on the Jets injury report this week, 113 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 9: but all of them are expected to play. They included 114 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 9: the two starting offensive tackles, Dwayne Brown and Mackai Beckton, 115 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 9: as well as running back Breecee Hall. Who we know 116 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 9: is coming back from an ACL surgery in the offseason. 117 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 9: The Bills have never faced Brice Hall in a Jets 118 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 9: uniform because he tore his ACL in Week seven last 119 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 9: year against the Broncos. The Bills did not play the 120 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 9: Jets until Week nine, and then obviously again later in 121 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 9: the season, and Hall had already been lost for the year. 122 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 9: He told the New York Media this week Steve that 123 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 9: he's quote pretty confident in his surgically repaired knee, And 124 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 9: we heard Robert Salah also say this week Steve that 125 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 9: while there he was not willing to reveal exactly what 126 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 9: the plan is. They do have a plan, but it 127 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 9: seems like it's gonna be a Hey, let's check in. 128 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 9: How did that first series go? Do you feel good? 129 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 8: Hey? How did that second series go? Hey? 130 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 9: Do you want to sit out this series? We'll put 131 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 9: Dalvin in. I mean, when you have Dalvin Cook as 132 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 9: a as a backup option, you don't feel the need 133 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:32,679 Speaker 9: to have to push Breese Hall. 134 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 2: Right, And maybe I don't know, maybe that's how the 135 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 2: Jets do it. Maybe they're going to go right to 136 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 2: him and say, hey, how do you feel I think 137 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 2: for a position like that, if there's if he has 138 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 2: any doubt or hesitation, you kind of hold him out. 139 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 2: I know, if he wants to go, I get it, 140 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 2: he wants to go. But if there's anything that's that 141 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 2: throws a you know, a shadow of doubt on his 142 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: ability to perform at a high level, there's no reason 143 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 2: to put him out. I mean, the guy was gonna 144 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: be rookie of the offensive, rookie of the year. You're 145 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 2: not gonna go out there and throw him out there 146 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 2: too early, particularly when he got Dalvin Cook standing there 147 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 2: waiting for his chance. I think that's crazy. Now, I 148 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 2: think they may have a more definite plan than that. Say, listen, 149 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 2: in this game, we're going to give you a series 150 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 2: in the first half and a series in the second half, 151 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 2: and we're going to evaluate after that. So the guy 152 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 2: knows how much he's gonna play. Because to me, it's 153 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 2: a bad idea to have Dalvin Cook checking in, going, hey, 154 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 2: is he going to go this series? 155 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 3: You know? 156 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 2: Do I have to be ready to play? If you 157 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 2: know what I mean. I think there'll be definite snap 158 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 2: counts and rotations set up because it's a bad idea 159 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 2: to have players unsure of how much they're gonna. 160 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 9: Play right, and I'm actually more interested in the tackle 161 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 9: situation for the Jet Steve for this regree number one, 162 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:58,319 Speaker 9: Dwayne Brown was on PUP almost the entire summer and preseason. 163 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 9: Only came off of PUP recently, and as we heard 164 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 9: from Jet senior reporter from Jets dot Com Derek Allen 165 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 9: on our weekly podcast Bills by the Numbers, he told us, 166 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 9: Dwayne Brown doesn't even have a lot of practice reps, 167 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 9: let alone preseason game reps. And you know, he's been 168 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 9: on pup, hasn't practiced, and he's I'm always a sixteen 169 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 9: year VET and a five time Pro bowler and all 170 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 9: that has had a great career, But to ramp it 171 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 9: up to that degree for Monday Night football, I'm wondering 172 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 9: how that's gonna look. It may only take him a 173 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,839 Speaker 9: couple of series, but if you can take advantage of 174 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 9: him early in the game, maybe you get a sack, 175 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 9: maybe you get a good shot on Rogers and he's 176 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 9: thinking about something. Meanwhile, on the other side, Makai Becton 177 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 9: hasn't played a game Steve start to finish since the 178 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 9: twenty twenty one season opener, two years with no regular 179 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 9: season football. I'm really curious to see how these guys 180 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 9: come out of the blocks tonight. 181 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,239 Speaker 8: On the edges. 182 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 2: Huge questions I think now, certainly, Dwayne Brown is a 183 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 2: guy who and I've said it before on the show, 184 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 2: that guy's a warrior. He's gonna strap it up, He's 185 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 2: gonna go. He probably he'll probably play every single snap 186 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 2: and probably never notice him. That the kind that's kind 187 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 2: of career he's had, he's gonna he has been an 188 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 2: elite tackle at the NFL for a long time now. 189 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 2: He is long in the tooth and there's no guarantees 190 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,839 Speaker 2: and Father Time is undefeated Brownie, So maybe tonight's to 191 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 2: night he catches up with him. I kind of doubt it. 192 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 2: I think it's a slow overtake by Father Time. And 193 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 2: Dwayne Brown is now playing for the Jets left tackle 194 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 2: and he struggled last year but he made it. So uh, 195 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 2: Makai Becton is the bigger question mark to me. Can 196 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 2: he go a full seventy five snaps? Can he make 197 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 2: it through a fourteen play drive? Can he you know 198 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 2: what I mean? 199 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 9: Oh? 200 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 8: Yeah? 201 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 2: Is he gonna? Is he gonna fade late in a 202 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 2: drive and all of a sudden give up two sacks 203 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 2: at the end of a drive because he just ran 204 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 2: out of gas, those kind of things. Kind of doubt 205 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 2: it'll be that stark, but as that game wears on, 206 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 2: it's going to be a question worth watching. I think 207 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 2: that's the big I think Mackay Beckton is the bigger 208 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 2: question mark of the two tackles, but by the same 209 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 2: but just what we've been talking about, they both bear watching. 210 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 9: As we all know, it is also the twenty second 211 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,319 Speaker 9: anniversary of nine to eleven, and you know, we never 212 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 9: want to forget that day. Here in the New York 213 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 9: metropolitan area where I am, it hits a little bit 214 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 9: different for obvious reasons. There is going to be a 215 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 9: big pregame ceremony tonight. NYPD Officer Brianna Fernandez will be 216 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 9: singing the national anthem and will be inviting the entire 217 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 9: stadium to sing it along with her. Apparently, this is 218 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 9: a new tradition the Jets are trying to enact this season, 219 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 9: basically having the crowd sing the national anthem with whoever 220 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 9: or whomever their anthem singer is. This was something that 221 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 9: was popularized in recent years by the New York Islanders. 222 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 9: Just on the other side of the river where they 223 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 9: do it at their home games and get everybody to 224 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 9: sing along. 225 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 8: So the Jets have taken a page out of that book. 226 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 8: I don't know if you saw this before I. 227 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 2: Get to that. 228 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 8: Let me ask you this. 229 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 9: Knowing the emotion that's going to be packed into this 230 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 9: pregame ceremony, and it's the first game of the year, 231 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 9: it's prime time, it's a division opponent, that whole ball 232 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 9: of wax. How do you channel your energies as a 233 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 9: player so you don't get wrapped up in all of 234 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 9: that and forget about how you're supposed to play and execute. 235 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: Well, first of all, I'm glad it's going to be 236 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 2: a big deal. It should be. Unfortunately, a tragic attack 237 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 2: like that, a terrorist attack like this, and something that's 238 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 2: so horrific is beyond words. Is one of the things 239 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 2: that has united our country over the past couple of decades, 240 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 2: and rightfully so. And I think it remains that way. 241 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 2: And I and I'm glad the Jets and New York 242 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 2: City and the New York Fire Department and the NYPD. 243 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: I'm glad everybody's going to be there. And I hope 244 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:19,599 Speaker 2: it it strikes a bell for all Americans that we 245 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:23,199 Speaker 2: can unite over this for at least a moment in 246 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 2: this day and age. So I'm all about. I think 247 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 2: it's an honor for the Bills to be playing in 248 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 2: that game, and I hope they show up big time 249 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 2: as a tribute to those people who lost their lives. 250 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 2: Having said that, as a player, I can only picture 251 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 2: what you're doing, you know, standing on the sidelines of 252 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 2: that you know, of this ceremony and this commemorates tonight. 253 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 2: It's big. It's hard for it's hard to put football 254 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 2: into the context of an event like nine to eleven 255 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 2: and not feel like it's a little bit insignificant. But 256 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 2: it's also a place where players can rally and say, listen, 257 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 2: we're gonna we're gonna remember this anniversary by playing our 258 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 2: hearts out. I think a lot of players will be 259 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 2: in that spot tonight, on both sides of the field. 260 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 2: But I do think this, I think you've got to 261 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 2: remember it's an honor to be asked to play on 262 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: that and to be part of the national remembrance of 263 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 2: that tonight on television as the whole country watches. 264 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 8: Yeah. 265 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, you've got to find a way to rally around 266 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 2: the remembrance of this day, knowing that in a lot 267 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 2: of ways football becomes really insignificant to the importance of 268 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 2: what a day like this was, but also give a 269 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 2: full effort because of it, because of the day that 270 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 2: it was. 271 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 9: Yeah, And an honorary captain for the Jets tonight will 272 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 9: be former quarterback Vinnie testa Verdi, who was the starting 273 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 9: quarterback for the Jets back in that two thousand and 274 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 9: one season, and testa Verdi was instrumental in forcing the 275 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 9: Jets and ultimately the league to postpone the Week two 276 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 9: regular season slate just five days after the Tuesday attacks. 277 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 9: He said he came into the Jets facility on Thursday 278 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 9: and had resolutely made the decision and told his head 279 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 9: coach Herm Edwards, I'm not playing this week, and a 280 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 9: lot of other guys in that locker room don't want 281 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 9: to play either because we don't think it's right. And 282 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 9: so Herm Edwards, to his credit, went to the front office, 283 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 9: Terry Bradway, the GM. They discussed some things, They called 284 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 9: the league, they explained the situation and they kind of 285 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 9: felt like Domino's after that and before we knew it, 286 00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 9: the week two slate was postponed and Week seventeen was 287 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 9: created at the back end of the schedule in early 288 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 9: January when all the Week two games were played. So 289 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 9: if any Testaverdi will be out there for the coin 290 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 9: toss tonight as an honorary captain for the Jets's. 291 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 2: And you know, you think about the Monday night game 292 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 2: last year where a game was postponed because of what 293 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 2: happened to Damar. It doesn't happen very often, and it 294 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 2: was the Jets who I think the Jets, maybe the 295 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 2: Giants as well, who started that ball rolling with the 296 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 2: players around the National Football League and it's and I 297 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 2: think the league was also reminded because before our time, 298 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 2: when JFK was assassinated in Dallas, the league decided they 299 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 2: would play their games, and to his final days, Pete 300 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 2: Roselle regretted it. The commissioner of the NFL, he regretted 301 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 2: having the players play the next day. I think the 302 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 2: league learned a lesson from that, even though it was 303 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 2: a generation or two before this nine to eleven, and 304 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 2: I think they've come to find out that it's not 305 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 2: all that bad taking a day and and and sitting on, 306 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 2: sitting down but I think it is one of those 307 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 2: times where the players wielded some power that they didn't 308 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 2: know they had. They said, not Wayne doing it, and 309 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 2: and and the league rightfully, so very quickly said you 310 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 2: know what, You're probably right, let's not and they did'n 311 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 2: you're right. And good for Vinnie for being a guy 312 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 2: who's who would go in and and herm Edwards is 313 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 2: the kind of guy too. You can see her being 314 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 2: the kind of guy listened to that who goes to 315 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 2: the Jets back in the day for doing it. Yeah. 316 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 9: And I think what struck Vinnie Testaverdi the most was 317 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 9: he's a Long Island native and he actually knew some 318 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 9: of the families that had lost loved ones in the 319 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 9: terrorist attacks in the World Trade Center twin Towers. And 320 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 9: he said, I went to church services with those family 321 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 9: members Thursday night on Long Island and I'm just like, 322 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,239 Speaker 9: or Wednesday night. And He's like, how the heck am 323 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 9: I going to play this right? And that's when he 324 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 9: kind of made his decisions. Very interesting to hear him 325 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 9: in an interview with ESPN dot Com Jets reporter Rich 326 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 9: Semini this week. It's really a good interview that he 327 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 9: did with Vinnie about that very subject. So he will 328 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 9: be an honorary captain at midfield tonight. The Jets will 329 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 9: be wearing their legacy white jerseys from the early to 330 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 9: mid eighties. And I also learned this Steve Apparently, I 331 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 9: don't know if it's going to be right at midfield, 332 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 9: but they're going to have the New York Sack Exchange 333 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 9: logo on the field somewhere to kind of honor that 334 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 9: era of the Jets teams. And it kind of all 335 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 9: falls into place because Joe Klecko, who was one of 336 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 9: the four guys on that Sack Exchange, went into the 337 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 9: Hall of Fame just last month, so it's a whole 338 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,440 Speaker 9: tie in that the Jets are taking advantage of. 339 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 8: And on the side to their helmets tonight, they're gonna 340 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 8: have that. 341 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 9: Old eighties Jets you know, streaking logo slanted you know 342 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 9: Jets word that. 343 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 8: We all remember from the eighties. 344 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 9: So they're they're buying into it full bore with the 345 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 9: two stripes on the two green stripes on the sleeves. 346 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 9: So if they're doing the whole they're they're rolling it 347 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 9: all out. 348 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 8: Tonight here at MetLife and. 349 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 2: Hopefully for the Bills they played like the eighties Jets. 350 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 8: Uh yeah, yeah, I mean they had some good years 351 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 8: in there. 352 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 9: They didn't go far in the playoffs they did when 353 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 9: I got but yeah, they were at least more competitive 354 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 9: back then. Right. 355 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 2: Well, I mean they're gonna believe me, rddy this just in. 356 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 2: They're gonna be competitive this year. Ain't no doubt. 357 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 8: Yes they are. 358 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 2: They're a good football team. The Dolphins played great yesterday. 359 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 2: You gotta tip your hat to two. I know we'll 360 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 2: get to all these games down the list. We're gonna 361 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 2: go down a little. But uh yeah, this is gonna 362 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 2: it's gonna be a tussle this year all around the AFC. Yeah, 363 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: we're in for it. We're in for a dogfight. We're 364 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 2: in for a dogfight. 365 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 9: But one other, one other note, yeah, so do I 366 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 9: one other note about tonight's game, though there is also 367 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 9: rain now in the forecast for tonight. The rain was 368 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 9: initially forecast to move out overnight. You saw it in 369 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 9: the Sunday night game. All of that rain that the 370 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 9: Giants and Cowboys experienced was supposed to move off shore tonight, 371 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 9: which for the most part it has. But there are 372 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,120 Speaker 9: these other storm cells coming in from the west. Right now, 373 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 9: it's supposed to rain here pretty hard at four o'clock 374 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 9: and then right around kickoff there's another cell that's supposed 375 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 9: to blow through. So it doesn't look like it's going 376 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 9: to be something that lasts throughout the duration of the 377 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 9: game like we saw last night Giants Cowboys, but it 378 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 9: is supposed to come in right around kickoff. And I 379 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 9: don't know about you, Steve, but that ball was slipping 380 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 9: and sliding all over the place last night at MetLife Stadium. 381 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 8: That does I don't want to see that. 382 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 2: No, no, a bad condition, it's a yeah, you don't 383 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 2: want that at all. And it makes for a more 384 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 2: question marks and more intangible, more variables for the game, 385 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 2: more variables for the offense, defense, all of that stuff. 386 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 2: So I'm yeah, I'm with you. You want as good 387 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 2: a weather as you can get for the team the 388 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 2: Bills are, you know, the team that the Bills field themselves, 389 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 2: and probably the Jets feel the same way. The Jets 390 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 2: can't feel like they need the field to be leveled. 391 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 2: They got to feel like they want to play their 392 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 2: best on a dry conditions as well. So yeah, sometimes 393 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 2: when you got an overmatch club, you think, yeah, bad 394 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 2: weather will even the playing field a little bit. You know, 395 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 2: Neither one of these teams want that. They'd love to 396 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 2: go out there on a fast track and get after it, 397 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 2: but yeah, you got to. 398 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 11: Do with you. 399 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 2: You got to go with what you got and I'm 400 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 2: with you. The weather blowing through it the way the 401 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 2: technology is now, if it's not actively raining, it should 402 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:58,199 Speaker 2: dry out very quickly. But there's no guarantees. I mean, 403 00:21:58,400 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 2: you know, the weather's the wright. 404 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 9: And speaking of the track, Steve, this is a brand 405 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,479 Speaker 9: new turf field installed here at MetLife Stadium. There had 406 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 9: been so many complaints about the quality and the conditions 407 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 9: of the turf here at MetLife that the NFLPA pretty 408 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 9: much came to the stadium people and said, hey, you 409 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:18,919 Speaker 9: got to take care of this, and so they did 410 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 9: replace the turf this offseason. 411 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 8: It was interesting. 412 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 9: I had a conversation this morning with Eric Wood at 413 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 9: breakfast and he was telling me he noticed that the 414 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 9: footing for the linemen proved very difficult last night because 415 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 9: he felt that the rubber infill was sitting very high 416 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 9: on the turf and there were like no visible blades 417 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 9: of the synthetic surface popping through the rubber infill, so 418 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 9: without any depth to it. When it got wet, it 419 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 9: almost made it like a wet wooden floor in your house. 420 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 9: And he said that's why he thought some of the 421 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 9: linemen were skating a little bit. Obviously, brush that today 422 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 9: after yesterday's game to kind of recontour the surface. So 423 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 9: hopefully it's not an issue, but it's definitely gonna be 424 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 9: something to keep an eye on because new surfaces have 425 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 9: to get broken in, just like a new football. 426 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, you could see it last night of the broadcasting. 427 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 2: In fact, I think Chris collins Worth and Mike Tarico 428 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 2: mentioned it. The guys were coming off the field and 429 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 2: they were talking to the coaches. In the close up shots, 430 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 2: you could see the pellets stuck to their sweaty skin. 431 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 2: It looks like you've been you know, you've been hit 432 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 2: with a pepper shaker. And that's the way that stuff is. 433 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,719 Speaker 2: It happens that way. It was the same when when 434 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 2: we played. You get tackled your face, masks on the ground, 435 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 2: scrapes across the ground and it's and it's like getting 436 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 2: sprayed with pellets up in your face. You gotta you know, 437 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 2: the problem is sometimes you get some of those that 438 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 2: stuff in your eyes. 439 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 8: But that's really bad. 440 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a brand new surface. It's gonna take time 441 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 2: for that, but yeah, you're right. They can groom it 442 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 2: today during the day and it will help with that. 443 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 2: Plus getting some rain last night and then getting groomed 444 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 2: will help settle it down a little bit as well. 445 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,959 Speaker 2: So yeah, it'll play fine. It's gonna be a fine surface. 446 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 2: I don't as long as they can keep it dry. 447 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 2: But you know, if it's actively raining, there's nothing that'll 448 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 2: help in any surface. 449 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 9: There is some good news for those of you that 450 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 9: intend to watch this game at home, especially if you 451 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 9: are a Spectrum Cable customer. Disney and Spectrum as breaking 452 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 9: news they have reached an agreement. And I'm telling you, Steve, 453 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 9: you better believe this Monday night game played a role 454 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,119 Speaker 9: in them reaching an agreement because people were genuinely concerned. 455 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 9: We were fielding tweets at one Bills Live about it. 456 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 8: I'm in Rochester. 457 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 7: What do I do? 458 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 8: I can't get the game. People were freaking out. 459 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 9: But it looks like they've reached an agreement, so the 460 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 9: game will be viewable for Spectrum Cable customers. People in 461 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 9: the Buffalo viewing area were going to be fine anyw 462 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 9: because it was going to be aired on the ABC 463 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 9: affiliate because by rule it has to air on an 464 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 9: over the air network ABC, CBS, NBC, something like that, 465 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 9: and the game was gonna be on ABC tonight anyway. 466 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 9: But no worries now, So that is all free and 467 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 9: clear and not something people have to worry about. Quick 468 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 9: rundown of the show today, I mentioned Eric Wood. We're 469 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 9: gonna have him in the third hour of the show 470 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 9: about a little less than two hours from now. In 471 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 9: the second hour, though, we are going to have Lige 472 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 9: Dosable sny Jets analyst to kind of break down the 473 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 9: Jets these last couple of days, how practice went. The 474 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 9: condition of Dwayne Brown and Mackai Beckton will be a 475 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 9: question we will fire off at him to get an 476 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 9: answer on that, as well as what he expects from 477 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 9: Brece Hall tonight, knowing he's coming back for the first 478 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 9: time from his acl tair last season. Topic of discussion 479 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 9: on the table for you as well, what is your 480 00:25:55,119 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 9: key to a Bill's victory over the Jets to eight 481 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 9: oh three five point fifty one eight eight eight five 482 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,159 Speaker 9: point fifty two, five fifty the number to get on 483 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 9: board and we do have open lines for you. Steve 484 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 9: and I first are going to take a quick spin 485 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 9: around the NFL presented by Kalida Healthy, official healthcare system 486 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 9: of the Buffalo Bills, and we'll start in the AFC East. 487 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 9: The other two teams played yesterday, one one one lost. 488 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 9: The New England Patriots hosted the NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles 489 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 9: and hung in there but ultimately lost twenty five twenty. 490 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 9: New England never had the lead, though they did cut 491 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 9: it to a two point game midway through and then 492 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 9: five points at the end. I just don't think the Patriots, Steve, 493 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 9: are equipped to come from behind and win games. They've 494 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 9: got to keep it close throughout and then hope, hope 495 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 9: their defense makes something happen. 496 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, Mac mac jones has I think less no if 497 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 2: any come from behind victories. He's got to play with 498 00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,400 Speaker 2: the lead. And the Patriots struggled to get get there. 499 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 2: They turned it over a couple of times, as we're 500 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 2: seeing here on the highlights. Zeke Elliott, you know, was 501 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 2: seven carries for twenty nine yards, Ormandre Stevenson twelve carries 502 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 2: for twenty five yards only average two point one per carry. 503 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 2: Philly was very good up front, and you know Jalen 504 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 2: Hurts was twenty two to thirty three and no turnovers, 505 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 2: no interceptions. So the pick six is what did did? 506 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 2: Eagles jumped out to a really big early lead, sixteen 507 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 2: to nothing, and you know Patriots aren't coming back from that, 508 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 2: even though they were game and made a game of it. 509 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 2: That's you know, that's hard to come back on a 510 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 2: roster like the Eagles canfield right. 511 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 9: And I don't know if you saw Jalen Carter in 512 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 9: his first start for the Eagles. You know, the former ten, 513 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 9: number ten overall pick or number nine overall pick guy 514 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 9: had six quarterback pressures, the most among all rookies in 515 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 9: Week one, so that guy already got turned loose. Although 516 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 9: they did suffer an injury to Kobe Dean, their linebacker. Also, 517 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 9: another Georgia product, suffered a foot injury. Is gonna miss 518 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 9: a few weeks. They said, no surgery. 519 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 8: He's gonna miss a few weeks with a foot injury. 520 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 9: The Dolphins, in a seesaw battle with the Chargers, steve 521 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 9: seven lean changes between the two teams. Tua had the 522 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 9: last laugh. His four yard touchdown passed to Tyreek Hill, 523 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 9: who had two hundred and fifteen receiving yards in the 524 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 9: game with one forty five left proved to be the difference. Now, 525 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,479 Speaker 9: I'm not trying to take a take credit away from 526 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 9: the Dolphins here, Steve when I say this, but the 527 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 9: Chargers defense did not look appreciably better. 528 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 8: Than they did last year. 529 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 9: And last year they didn't have Derwin James for stretches 530 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 9: of the season and lost j C. Jackson to a 531 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 9: season in the injury early. Four hundred sixty six passing 532 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 9: yards for TUA. I mean, what are they doing out there? 533 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 7: Right? 534 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 2: Well, they got some help too. At the end of 535 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 2: the first half. 536 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 3: J C. 537 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 2: Jackson had an oh the head scratching penalty and pass 538 00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 2: interference penalty to a laid it up for grabs like 539 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 2: nine thousand guys down there. He threw it into a 540 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 2: patch and j C. Jackson just two handed waddle in 541 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 2: the back. Yeah, I don't think he could have caught 542 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 2: it anyway, pass interference and then there was a penalty 543 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 2: and an untimed down at the end of the half 544 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 2: gave him three points in the lead to go in 545 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 2: a halftime. So it was crazy. And I'll say this too, 546 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 2: the Chargers, I don't think see enough of the Dolphins 547 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 2: and particularly Tyreek, to know you gotta stay over the 548 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 2: top of him. You can't take the lid off the 549 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 2: defense with Tyreek in the game. You gotta have somebody 550 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 2: over the top of him. Otherwise he's gonna go, He's 551 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 2: gonna outrun you. 552 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 9: And so Steve, they just saw them last year. Do 553 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 9: you remember the game. It was a great game plan 554 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 9: by Brandon Staley. He shut down that Dolphins defense. 555 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 2: Comes up this year, I mean this year. Remember last 556 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 2: year we had that big conversation. It looked like the 557 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 2: Chargers had this great plan because they away the middle 558 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 2: of the football field and the Dolphins were struggling to 559 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 2: get the ball outside and they couldn't throw it outside 560 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 2: the numbers, and the Chargers wouldn't let the Dolphin receivers 561 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 2: inside them. That seemed to be effective. Yesterday, the Dolphins 562 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 2: went vertical and the Chargers had no answer. They couldn't 563 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 2: stay on top of them, and it cost him a 564 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 2: couple of big plays. You know, Tyreek had along of 565 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 2: forty seven plus a couple of tds. You can't do that. 566 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 2: You can't give the Dolphins explosive plays, and to his credit, 567 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,959 Speaker 2: was on the money he made some very nice throws 568 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 2: that also this too. When two is healthy and they're 569 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 2: all healthy and two has got time to throw it, 570 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 2: that is an elite offense. They can light you up. 571 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 2: And they did that to the Chargers yesterday. 572 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 9: It was good scheming by Mike McDaniel also, so he 573 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 9: knew that they took away the middle of the field 574 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 9: from him last year in the meetup. 575 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 8: So this year, what did he do. 576 00:30:55,920 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 9: He condensed the formations down, very tight formations, and he 577 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 9: was running rub plays allowing Tyreek Hill to get outside 578 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 9: one on one where all the space was because they 579 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 9: were lined up so tight to the formation. 580 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 8: And they did it all day long and the Chargers 581 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 8: never adjusted. I didn't understand that. 582 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you got to. You gotta kind of have a 583 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 2: sense of that, I mean, you know. And Tua uh 584 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 2: to his credit as well, I mean, he bought himself 585 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 2: some time. Their offensive line, the question marks they had 586 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 2: in the preseason didn't seem to be a problem. Joey 587 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 2: Bosa and Khalil Mack were not a big factor in 588 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 2: this game to me, And that's surprising. Yeah. 589 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 9: And uh so Tua four hundred and sixty six yards 590 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 9: passing three touchdowns, and one interception. 591 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 8: He also lost to fumble. 592 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:48,959 Speaker 7: Uh. 593 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 8: We have to take a break here though, because we 594 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 8: are up against it. 595 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 9: Your phone calls are coming up next though, Steven Orchard Park, 596 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 9: Josh and New York are gonna lead us off as 597 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 9: we are. 598 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 8: Asking you what is the key to way Bill's victory tonight? 599 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 9: You let us know at eight oh three oh five 600 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 9: fifty one eight five fifty two five fifty the number 601 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 9: to get on board. 602 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 8: We're back at your. 603 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 2: Phone calls tacks here on One Bills Live. 604 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 8: Percent of by a lot of health.

So we go to the phones 612 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 9: and leading us off today is Steven Orchard Park. What 613 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 9: do you got for a Steve? You're on One Bill's Live. 614 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 12: Hey guys, just a couple of comments. I just like 615 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 12: the way the Bills are handling their business. They've been 616 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 12: very complimentary to the Jets, their players, their whole their coaches, 617 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 12: and they're really not saying too much. Stefan Diggs is 618 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 12: deleted his Twitter account for tonight, so that might be 619 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 12: a positive sign. But I just like the temperament of 620 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 12: the organization and the Jets, on the other hand, are 621 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 12: really hyped themselves up into a frenzy, their coaches, the players, obviously, 622 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 12: the national media and the New York media. But the 623 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 12: Bills are a veteran team and they've been there before 624 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 12: and they know how to handle these types of games. 625 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 12: I think if the game doesn't go to script the 626 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 12: way the Jets like in the early going, you could 627 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 12: see maybe them getting a little frazzled. I'm not saying 628 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 12: it's going to happen, because I don't know. I expect 629 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 12: a tough game tonight, but in the end, I expect 630 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 12: the Bills to win. And I think the key to 631 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 12: the game of Brownie is our O line has to 632 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 12: perform a lot better than they have against this team 633 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 12: in the last two games. Particularly if we could just 634 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 12: you know, stalemate them and give Josh the tiny needs 635 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 12: dissector secondary, I think we're gonna be just fine. So 636 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 12: I like the Bills twenty seven one. 637 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 8: Thanks all right, Steve, Thanks for the phone call, Steve. 638 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,879 Speaker 9: I think it should be noted, Yes, the Bills gave 639 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,399 Speaker 9: up eight sacks in two games against the Jets last year. 640 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 9: One of those games was played without Spencer Brown. The 641 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,240 Speaker 9: Week nine game, David Questenberry had to play in his place. 642 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 9: He's not on the roster anymore. 643 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 8: That was a factor. 644 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,320 Speaker 9: Of Course, the Jets will argue that they didn't have 645 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 9: Carl Lawson, one of their top pass rushers. But still 646 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 9: in all that's gonna affect your offensive line play when 647 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 9: one of your starting tackles isn't play. 648 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. And there's make no mistake the Jet. 649 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 2: The Jets are too good not to have some success 650 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 2: tonight against the Bills. Bills aren't gonna I was, the 651 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 2: Bills are not gonna hang half a hundred on the 652 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 2: New York Jet defense. 653 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 11: This just in. 654 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 2: The Bills were a good, really good offense last year, 655 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,720 Speaker 2: top five off last year, and they scored like around 656 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:07,240 Speaker 2: twenty points. That's gonna have to change against this offense 657 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 2: and the Jets this year. Now I know this too, 658 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 2: and we've talked about all off season since the Aaron 659 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 2: Rodgers news came down. It's not sometimes not so easy 660 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 2: just to grab a quarterback and plug him into the 661 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 2: same team he had last year and think, Okay, we're 662 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 2: gonna just keep rolling. It may happen for the Jets, 663 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 2: and if that's the case, they are going to be 664 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 2: a very good team, which is what we expect, at 665 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 2: least an improved team. But sometimes it's not that easy, 666 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,719 Speaker 2: particularly in the early going. A lot of question marks 667 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 2: coming into this game. The Bills have upgraded on a 668 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,840 Speaker 2: number of fronts and a number of position groups. You 669 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,359 Speaker 2: can point to their middle linebacker and say, okay, there's 670 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 2: a question mark. Yeah, but you and I have also 671 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:55,399 Speaker 2: questioned marked their offensive tackles. We'll see. It's the key 672 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 2: to the game. Certainly is going to be up about 673 00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 2: the Bills offensive line against his defensive front, but it's 674 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 2: also the reverse is true. It's the Bill's defensive front 675 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 2: against the Jets offensive line as well. It's it starts 676 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 2: up front. It always hasn't. It's always gonna be that 677 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 2: way until this league transforms into something we don't recognize. 678 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 2: You gotta win with the big guys at least, like 679 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 2: like Steve said on the op caller, you gotta at 680 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,399 Speaker 2: least stalemate those guys and give yourself, your skill guys 681 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,959 Speaker 2: a chance. So we still don't know anymore now today 682 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 2: and we did when we can hash this out as 683 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 2: much as you want, but you're right, it's gonna be 684 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:28,800 Speaker 2: one of lost upfront. 685 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 9: To begin with, let's go to josh in New York. Next, 686 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 9: what do you got for us? Joshua All on Bill's Live. 687 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 13: Hey, guys, thanks for taking my call. Happy Bill's Game day. 688 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 13: It's it's an exciting day. It almost seems like Christmas 689 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 13: morning making up this morning, but it's such an exciting day. 690 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 13: But first of all, I just want to say, this 691 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 13: is gonna be a really great game. I'm really excited 692 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 13: to watch it. The atmosphere is going to be great. 693 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,320 Speaker 13: No anniversary of nine to eleven is just going to 694 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,320 Speaker 13: be The energy is going to be absolutely amazing, and 695 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:07,359 Speaker 13: I'm really looking forward to watching the two two really 696 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,399 Speaker 13: good teams going out and battling, battling. 697 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:10,720 Speaker 14: It out tonight. 698 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 13: I do think the Bills are going to win. It's 699 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:17,800 Speaker 13: not going to be a blowout. I think Steve alluded 700 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 13: to that it's going to be a really close game, 701 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 13: probably probably one team might get in the twenties, one 702 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 13: team might not. But I think the Bills are going 703 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:30,239 Speaker 13: to come out on top. Then my key to that, 704 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 13: to them winning is just playing ef fishing football. You know, 705 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 13: Steve alluded to it. This is a team that's given 706 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 13: the Bills fits the past few years, especially last year, 707 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 13: holding them to seventeen and twenty points respectively. They just 708 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 13: got to go out and play efficiently. Josh has to 709 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 13: take care of the football. 710 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 9: They have to. 711 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 13: Make plays and they need to be made. Defense can't 712 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 13: give up the big plays and can't let can't let 713 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 13: can't let them running backs get out in open space, 714 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:05,360 Speaker 13: and can't can't let Rogers beat you. So thank you 715 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 13: guys for taking my call. That's all I got for you, 716 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 13: all right, Thanks. 717 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 8: Very much, Josh. I will say this Steve. 718 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 9: You know, he was talking about a bunch of scenarios there, 719 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 9: and he is right. I mean, the Jets did hold 720 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 9: this offense down in ways that not many other defenses 721 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:28,800 Speaker 9: could last season, and you would anticipate that the Jets, 722 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:30,240 Speaker 9: whose defense. 723 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 8: Is largely the same. 724 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 9: I think they have eight returning starters from last year, 725 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 9: seven or eight, that they will be just as effective 726 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 9: knowing the continuity that they have on that side of 727 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 9: the football, so it will be a challenge. But I 728 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 9: found it interesting this week Steve that Josh Allen most 729 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 9: of the week when he addressed the media was talking 730 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 9: about his own and these are his words, dumb mistakes 731 00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,080 Speaker 9: that he made in the games last year. And I 732 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 9: think he is regretful of some of the things that 733 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 9: might be deemed as him forcing it a little bit 734 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 9: to try to make something happen. I think when his 735 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 9: team sputters a little bit, he puts it all on 736 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 9: himself to get them out of that rut. And I 737 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 9: think he's got to try to find a balance there 738 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 9: to kind of let the game come to him while 739 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 9: also trying to make a play that can swing the 740 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 9: momentum of the football game. 741 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he Josh threw two picks last year in 742 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,440 Speaker 2: that first game in New York. One was in their 743 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 2: reds and it was in both ends of the field. 744 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 2: They're into the field when they were Bills were going in, 745 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 2: and also in the Bills into the field when they 746 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 2: were coming out. I think I remember that right could 747 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 2: have been two worse spots. So he gave he took 748 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 2: a chance away from the Buffalo Bills and gave the 749 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 2: chance to the New York on a short field. So 750 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 2: he did both of those things. 751 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 8: That was in a three point game. 752 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 2: In a three point game, if the Bills don't turn 753 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:02,360 Speaker 2: it over tonight, they're gonna be able to be efficient 754 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 2: enough to stay on the field and dictate play. It's 755 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 2: easier to it's easy to say that, but here's what 756 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 2: I would envision. They'll have us. They'll have a plan 757 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 2: in place in case they get good pressure. That is, 758 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,800 Speaker 2: the Jets get good pressure on Josh, They'll have a 759 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 2: plan in place to get the ball out quick. And 760 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,400 Speaker 2: if they're able to do that and stay on the 761 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 2: field and get their first downs, they'll be able to 762 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 2: move the football and get in the end. I think 763 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 2: the Bills have a really good chance of being a 764 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 2: good red zone team this year, So if they get 765 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,439 Speaker 2: down there, it'll be it'll it'll keep this game close. 766 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:42,800 Speaker 2: And this this game, but whether the Bills win it 767 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,400 Speaker 2: or lose it. If they lose it, it's gonna be 768 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 2: like the Bills losses happen. It's gonna be like the 769 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,120 Speaker 2: Chiefs loss to the Detroit Lions. It's gonna look like 770 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 2: oh Man, they just if one play this play that play, 771 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 2: it's gonna be a three point game. That's what it's 772 00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 2: gonna be if it's if it's a Bill's loss, and 773 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,479 Speaker 2: the same thing for a Bill's win. Against this Jet team, 774 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:06,240 Speaker 2: they're hard to run off and leave because of their defense. 775 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:08,799 Speaker 2: They're hard to, you know, to leave in your dust 776 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,760 Speaker 2: as an offense because they just don't give up big plays. 777 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 2: They match up really well to about any position you know, 778 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 2: about any personnel group you can put out there, just's 779 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 2: got an answer for it. And they win a lot 780 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:21,800 Speaker 2: of one on ones. So this is going to be 781 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 2: a tight game with two good teams, and the one 782 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,479 Speaker 2: team that can play free and easy and not worry 783 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 2: about any of this stuff and kind of go out 784 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 2: and show off is kind of be the ones gonna 785 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 2: have the right mindset. You know, you gotta you can't 786 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,399 Speaker 2: go in there thinking, well, if we just don't turn 787 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,480 Speaker 2: it over, we'll be okay. Well, then you're you got 788 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 2: the wrong mindset. You got to go out there and saying, hey, 789 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,320 Speaker 2: let's go cut it loose and let's play, because you know, 790 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,360 Speaker 2: these two teams are good enough to pull a mindset 791 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 2: like that off without being too risky with them and 792 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 2: being all frivolous with the football and you know, ladtering 793 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 2: it and all that kind of junk like that. Whichever 794 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,399 Speaker 2: team can free its mind up, go out and play 795 00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,360 Speaker 2: free and easy is going to be the team that 796 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:02,319 Speaker 2: plays its best. And in a game like this, team 797 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 2: that plays its best is gonna win. 798 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 9: We have to step aside here for a break, but 799 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 9: Chris in Brooklyn, Mark and West Seneca stay where you are. 800 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,839 Speaker 9: More of your phone calls when we return. You guys 801 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 9: will lead us off when we get back here. On 802 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 9: One Bill's Live, there's anybody can a lot of health. 803 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:16,439 Speaker 9: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. 804 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 2: This week's game sponsor is the the fl O Store. 805 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 9: An official retailer of the Buffalo Bill's going to go 806 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,320 Speaker 9: right back to the phones where we're asking you what 807 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 9: you believe is the key to a Bill's victory. Tonight 808 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:44,320 Speaker 9: we go locally down here anyway to Chris in Brooklyn. 809 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 8: What do you got for us? 810 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 5: Chris? 811 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 15: You're on One Bill's Live, Chris, Steve, I missed you 812 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 15: guys here. My key is I think the Bills need 813 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 15: to be patient, especially on offense. Josh Allen needs to 814 00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 15: be patient and take what the defense gives him. And 815 00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 15: I think with Dalton Kincaid and the slot and the 816 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 15: mismatches he provides, I think Josh will finally have the 817 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 15: ability to be patient because that's like he didn't have 818 00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 15: a slot receiver last time around. You know, I think 819 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 15: they forced the ball down the field and they didn't 820 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 15: need to. But now, like if it doesn't look great 821 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 15: down the field, Josh Allen now has that outlet in 822 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 15: the sort of five to seven yard range, which he 823 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 15: didn't have last year. I think that is sort of 824 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 15: one of the keys here. And that's all I got. 825 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:27,799 Speaker 15: Go Bill's nanks. 826 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:29,439 Speaker 8: We were talking call Chris. 827 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 2: We were talking during the break and last year and 828 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 2: I went back and looked at the game book. Josh 829 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,359 Speaker 2: on the opening drive through an interception on the Jet 830 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 2: thirteen yard line that was where the line of scrimmage was, 831 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 2: and he throws an interception in the red zone. Then 832 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 2: they come back and they get a touchdown on their 833 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 2: next drive. Then they punt, and then they get a 834 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 2: touchdown on their fourth drive. Then they miss a field 835 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 2: goal right before halftime. Then Josh throws an interception on 836 00:43:55,040 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 2: the Buffalo twenty two. So yeah, the Bill's kind of 837 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 2: did it to themselves a little bit last year. And 838 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 2: the fact that Josh was kind of Josh was in 839 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 2: that phase last year where he's slinging it all over 840 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 2: the place in the red zone and both ends of 841 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:12,879 Speaker 2: the field, and and I'm with I guess I'm kind 842 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,240 Speaker 2: of with Chris, who the caller was. Just now, if 843 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:22,080 Speaker 2: Josh just takes the easy throws, I mean, things changed dramatically. 844 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 2: I mean we just saw that. We just saw the 845 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 2: interception he threw in the in the Jets into the 846 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 2: field on the first drive, and I mean he threw 847 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 2: it right to him. Oh my gosh. 848 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:38,320 Speaker 9: I think I think I remember him saying that he 849 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 9: never saw Jordan Whitehead until after the ball was out 850 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 9: of his hand. 851 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 8: I think I remember him saying that after the game. 852 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:46,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, Whitehead was behind the guy that was chasing him. 853 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:48,680 Speaker 2: There was a guy that was in his Josh, Franklin 854 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,400 Speaker 2: Myers was Franklin Myers was kind of mirroring Josh at 855 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,120 Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage. So Josh is gonna throw it 856 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:55,799 Speaker 2: to Dawson Knox and all of a sudden, out from 857 00:44:55,840 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 2: behind Whitehead or out from behind Franklin pops white Head. 858 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,399 Speaker 2: It's like he's at the balls just left his hand. 859 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 2: You can see it in the replay. We just saw 860 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,360 Speaker 2: Josh's eyes go He kind of like, oh, rolls his 861 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 2: eyes almost in a brief moment of realization that no, 862 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 2: I just messed that up. So he really didn't see why. 863 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:16,960 Speaker 2: You could tell by the look on his face in 864 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 2: the slow motion replay. 865 00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 9: Yeah, let's go back to the phones and to Mark 866 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:22,840 Speaker 9: and west senecon X. 867 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 8: What do you got for his Mark? 868 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:28,960 Speaker 16: Hey, chrisy Steve, I got a question and an observation. 869 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,839 Speaker 16: Here's a deep thought. My questions about the offensive line. 870 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 16: Like everybody who we're all worried about the offensive line 871 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:40,040 Speaker 16: against that pass rush of the Jets have. But my 872 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 16: question is if the Bills are struggling blocking up front 873 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 16: tonight a little bit or a lot whichever do they 874 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 16: Have you ever seen them or has there ever been 875 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 16: any thought talk about a sliding pocket and not just 876 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 16: a pure rollout with Josh because he's so athletic, but literally, 877 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 16: like in the old day, he's a sliding, moving pocket 878 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:05,720 Speaker 16: away from the strength of the rush whatever they determined 879 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:10,520 Speaker 16: to be from either side. That's my question. And if 880 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,799 Speaker 16: they don't, is it possibly because they don't think they're 881 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 16: athletic and up upfront. And my observation is I really 882 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:20,960 Speaker 16: want to see them make the Jets defend the middle 883 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:24,320 Speaker 16: of the field and make those safeties come up and 884 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 16: help those linebackers out because they have no other recourse 885 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 16: for us to get some single coverage shots down deep. 886 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,160 Speaker 16: So I think if they can do those two things, 887 00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:35,000 Speaker 16: they'll be great tonight. 888 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:35,839 Speaker 11: Thanks guys. 889 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 8: Yeah, look, I will say this. 890 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:42,319 Speaker 9: I think the Bills for the most part last year 891 00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 9: were seen as a slide protection team. It's going to 892 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:50,560 Speaker 9: be interesting to see what their approach is tonight, particularly 893 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 9: with Quinn Williams, which is a tall task for a 894 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 9: guy making his first career start Osyrus Torrance. You anticipate 895 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 9: he'll be getting some help from me. It depends on 896 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 9: what Quinn Williams does in terms of his alignment. He 897 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 9: might expect the Bills to give him help from Mitch Morse, 898 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,840 Speaker 9: So how does he move away from that? He lines 899 00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:19,360 Speaker 9: up wider instead aligning head up on Osiris Torrance or 900 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:22,360 Speaker 9: on his inside shoulder. They'll line up on his outside 901 00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 9: shoulder and see if he can beat him one on 902 00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 9: one outside and then if Osiris oversets, he comes down 903 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 9: inside and Mitch Morris can't stop that head of steam, 904 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:33,280 Speaker 9: and you got a problem. 905 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 8: So I'm very interested to see how they do that. 906 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 9: I do remember this Steve week one last year, the 907 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 9: Bills did a lot of chipping on Aaron Donald with 908 00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 9: the backs with a tight end coming inside in motion sometimes, 909 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,320 Speaker 9: and so I wonder if they go back to that 910 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 9: approach to kind of keep Quinn Williams at bay, because 911 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 9: he had three sacks in the two games last year 912 00:47:58,480 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 9: against the Bills. 913 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's there's always a way to do that. The 914 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:03,719 Speaker 2: problem is you start doing that to Quinn Williams and 915 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 2: all these other jokers start popping loose, you know, because 916 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:11,440 Speaker 2: they they're deep. They've got some guys and you know, 917 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 2: it's not just Quinn Williams. It's well, let's see, it's 918 00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:21,479 Speaker 2: it's Quentin Jefferson, Quentin Jefferson, It's Al Woods, it's John 919 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 2: Franklin Myers, Dame Jamien Surewood. They've got some guys, Bryce Huff. 920 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 8: So once you to the first round, picks Jermaine Johnson 921 00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:34,280 Speaker 8: and Will McDonald. 922 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 2: So yeah, you've got it's not just you know, Quinn Williams. 923 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 2: They've got more than what than that guy, and and 924 00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 2: I get it. Everybody's kind of wringing their hands over 925 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 2: the offensive line the same they were the same problems 926 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:53,799 Speaker 2: that there were same issues and even more so uh 927 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 2: in Miami. And they did find against a really good 928 00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:59,719 Speaker 2: front in LA with the Chargers, particularly at the end. 929 00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 2: So now the Jets are a little different. I mean, 930 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:07,319 Speaker 2: with Williams inside, they're better inside than the Charges would 931 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 2: have been inside. But we'll just have to wait and see. 932 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 2: You got to have some faith in the upgrades to 933 00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 2: the and the investment that the Bills put into their 934 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,359 Speaker 2: offensive line. We'll see how it pans out. They may 935 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 2: flop allah of the New York Giants did last night, 936 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,040 Speaker 2: but I kind of doubt that's gonna happen. I think 937 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 2: they're gonna be able to hold their own and get 938 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:30,520 Speaker 2: enough at least stalemates for Josh and the skill guys 939 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 2: to work. So we'll see. And you're right, it would 940 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:36,000 Speaker 2: be kind of cool if you ran the ball well 941 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:41,600 Speaker 2: enough to bring the safeties down into the box. I 942 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 2: was asking a lot, but it would be nice. 943 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 9: It would be because it means the linebackers for the 944 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:48,480 Speaker 9: Jets are having trouble and coverage. That would be a 945 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 9: nice that would play very nicely into the hands of 946 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 9: what we believe the Bills want to do tonight. 947 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 8: We have to step aside here, but when we come back, we. 948 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:01,920 Speaker 9: Will be joined by CBS Sports analyst and former NFL 949 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 9: defensive lineman Lee Jay Usable, who covers the Jets on 950 00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 9: a daily basis. 951 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:08,880 Speaker 8: We'll check in with him on some of the stuff 952 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,759 Speaker 8: concerning their two starting tackles, if you lay. 953 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:14,520 Speaker 9: A lot in the preseason, among other topics. Next here 954 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:15,759 Speaker 9: on One Bill's Live, Stay Tune. 955 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:51,919 Speaker 1: This is One Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health. 956 00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,879 Speaker 17: Already hour number two on the day. 957 00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,680 Speaker 9: Chris brown Steed tasker with you and please to be 958 00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 9: joy now by CBS sports analyst, former NFL defensive lineman 959 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:06,400 Speaker 9: for both the Jets and Bills in his career.

Good to 961 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:11,719 Speaker 9: have you back for another season checking in on these 962 00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:12,319 Speaker 9: Jets weeks. 963 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 4: Lejay appreciated it, Chris and tasks, how you guys doing tonight? 964 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 8: Do it today? 965 00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:18,359 Speaker 3: A really good night time? 966 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 2: Yet, and we've been waiting a long time on this game, 967 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:22,759 Speaker 2: and no longer than the Jet fans have been waiting 968 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 2: on this I mean this is. I mean, that city 969 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:29,319 Speaker 2: has got to be absolutely sparking. It's so electric over there. 970 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, it should be a memorable moment at you know, 971 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 4: MetLife Stadium tonight. We already know what date it is, 972 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:39,680 Speaker 4: right and what that means to the city of New York. 973 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:43,799 Speaker 4: And now you got a four time MVP at quarterback 974 00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 4: the likes of the Jets fan base and Brash hasn't 975 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:51,160 Speaker 4: seen probably going back to Joe Namanth, right, we're talking 976 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:53,520 Speaker 4: about as far as quality of quarterback plays. 977 00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:56,040 Speaker 3: So there's a lot of excitement in New York City, 978 00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 3: a lot. 979 00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 4: Of expectations because you go in and bring a four 980 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:03,720 Speaker 4: time MVP Super Bowl Chap Aaron Rodgers into your building. 981 00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 2: Leja. 982 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 9: I don't think we've touched on this subject at all 983 00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,640 Speaker 9: because other things on the Jets roster have garnered more attention. 984 00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:14,680 Speaker 9: But I found it very interesting. You know, we were 985 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,800 Speaker 9: talking in Buffalo about the turnover at the receiver position 986 00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,279 Speaker 9: for the Bills. Diggs, Davis and Khalil Shakir are the 987 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:24,319 Speaker 9: only guys returning from last year's roster. It's only three 988 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:25,560 Speaker 9: guys for the Jets. 989 00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:27,640 Speaker 8: It's one. It's Garrett Wilson. 990 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 3: Garrett. 991 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:30,160 Speaker 8: Everybody else is new. 992 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:33,760 Speaker 9: And I realize Alan Lazard and Randall Cobb have played 993 00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:36,279 Speaker 9: with Aaron Rodgers, so that probably mitigates some of that 994 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:39,840 Speaker 9: to some degree. But what's been the general consensus about 995 00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:42,799 Speaker 9: the chemistry and the timing of the passing game, knowing 996 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 9: how much newness there is there. 997 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's an interesting point you bring up, Chris, 998 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,839 Speaker 4: because you talked about it, right, Randall Cobb, Blazard, they're 999 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 4: very familiar with Aaron Rodgers. So Aaron Rodgers has a 1000 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 4: lot of freedom at the line of scrimmage in regards 1001 00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 4: to being able to change things up, a lot of 1002 00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:01,759 Speaker 4: RPO options as well when there's called runs if he 1003 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:03,800 Speaker 4: sees the off man coverage. We actually saw that in 1004 00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 4: the preseason right versus Giants. He threw a fade to 1005 00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:10,239 Speaker 4: Garrett Wilson. So as far as getting the receivers on 1006 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 4: the same page, it was monumental for Aaron Rodgers to 1007 00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:16,160 Speaker 4: be their all offseason, all throughout training camp and even 1008 00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:19,200 Speaker 4: taking some preseason reps. Because of what you just talked about, 1009 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:22,360 Speaker 4: the turnover at the receiver position. I think Corey Davis, 1010 00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:26,600 Speaker 4: you know, retiring unexpectedly was a big loss for the Jets, 1011 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 4: right this is a big, physical receiver, a guy that's 1012 00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 4: great in run blocking, and he's also a big guy 1013 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,080 Speaker 4: in the red zone you can get the ball to. Now, 1014 00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:35,840 Speaker 4: Alan Lazard will most likely be that guy in the 1015 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 4: red zone for Aaron Rodgers. That's what he was when 1016 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,799 Speaker 4: he was in Green Bay with him. So there's familiarity 1017 00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:44,160 Speaker 4: with Randall Cobb and Alan Lazard and Garrett Wilson have 1018 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 4: taken a million reps with Aaron Rodgers just to get 1019 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:50,399 Speaker 4: that continuity down. I would say, you saw it paid 1020 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:52,759 Speaker 4: dividends in the preseason. They're looking to build on that 1021 00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 4: as the season goes on. 1022 00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:56,520 Speaker 2: That was really the question coming in. Everybody said, well, 1023 00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:58,520 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodger going to new team's gonna be a new seat. 1024 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:01,000 Speaker 2: It's not the same. Rodgers is the one who's the 1025 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:03,600 Speaker 2: veteran in the system, who's the new player coming in 1026 00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 2: the door. So there's a lot of there's a lot 1027 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:08,880 Speaker 2: of weirdness about the continuity thing about it. Certainly they 1028 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:10,680 Speaker 2: brought in some of his boys, like you just said, 1029 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:14,239 Speaker 2: but this is a team too where Aaron Rodgers still 1030 00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:16,959 Speaker 2: can walk in, know exactly what's going on and coach 1031 00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:18,880 Speaker 2: the guys. He's not the one that has to learn it. 1032 00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:21,480 Speaker 2: What about the offensive line and those guys learning a 1033 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,759 Speaker 2: new system, getting recoached and getting up to speed on that. 1034 00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:27,560 Speaker 2: The skilled guys as well, you know, you mentioned a 1035 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:29,839 Speaker 2: lot of them have experience in this and experience with Aaron. 1036 00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 2: But what about the rest of the offense learning Aaron 1037 00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:34,640 Speaker 2: and this new system, particularly the big guys. 1038 00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:37,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, Tash, and that was the big question. 1039 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 4: I think Aaron Rodgers even alluded to that right sometime 1040 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:43,000 Speaker 4: during training camp. He was like, I'm not in panic 1041 00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 4: mode just yet, but I need to know who my 1042 00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:48,160 Speaker 4: starting five offensive linemen are, right, because those guys are 1043 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 4: tied on a string together. And we talked about the 1044 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 4: communication aspect of Aaron Rodgers in this offense. 1045 00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:55,279 Speaker 3: He has a lot of freedom in this offense, so 1046 00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:57,040 Speaker 3: guys have to get the checks right. 1047 00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 4: If he decides to check a play and go drop 1048 00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:01,440 Speaker 4: back past, you can't me run blocking still while he's 1049 00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:03,800 Speaker 4: you know, dropping back and passing. So that was a 1050 00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:07,520 Speaker 4: big concern the offensive tackle position more specifically, because those 1051 00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:10,880 Speaker 4: tackles had struggled throughout trading camp. Right now, McKay Beckton, 1052 00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:13,920 Speaker 4: his biggest issue was staying healthy, right, and you saw 1053 00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:17,080 Speaker 4: the confidence grow in him throughout the preseason, and we 1054 00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:20,000 Speaker 4: saw him finally start a game for the Jets at 1055 00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:23,160 Speaker 4: right tackle for Aaron Rodgers first the New York Giants, 1056 00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:25,040 Speaker 4: and he played really well in that game. Right For me, 1057 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:28,719 Speaker 4: when it comes to him, it was all about the confidence, right, 1058 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 4: because when you're coming off two major injuries where you 1059 00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:34,200 Speaker 4: essentially don't play football for two years, it's a mentality, 1060 00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:36,360 Speaker 4: but it's also the physical part of it, right, because 1061 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:38,719 Speaker 4: they were ramping him up, like I believe the first 1062 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:41,279 Speaker 4: preseason game he played maybe seven plays, then he played 1063 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:43,640 Speaker 4: about twenty, then he played about twenty five, then he 1064 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:44,839 Speaker 4: went up to like twenty seven. 1065 00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:47,280 Speaker 3: That just got that extra preseason game which. 1066 00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:50,760 Speaker 4: Actually benefited Makai Beckton in regards to getting those reps, 1067 00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:52,960 Speaker 4: to making sure that he was confident enough that he 1068 00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 4: could play throughout their whole game. And then if you 1069 00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:57,440 Speaker 4: look at the left tackle position, Consument Pro and Dwayne 1070 00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:00,840 Speaker 4: Brown who last year tests and Chris literally could have 1071 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:02,839 Speaker 4: shut it down if he wanted to and collected the check, 1072 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:05,440 Speaker 4: but decide to play with a banged up shoulder. Now 1073 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:08,040 Speaker 4: he's come back and he's been back for about three weeks, 1074 00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 4: so you would think with all the football that he's played, 1075 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 4: even though it's a new system that he would be 1076 00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:15,960 Speaker 4: a breast to what is going on in that office. 1077 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:16,080 Speaker 3: Now. 1078 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 4: I still think it's gonna take a couple of weeks 1079 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:20,200 Speaker 4: for this offensive line to jail all the way through. 1080 00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 3: And we know this. 1081 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:24,040 Speaker 4: Usually in the beginning of the season we see some 1082 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,279 Speaker 4: sloppiness on offense because a lot of these guys don't 1083 00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:29,440 Speaker 4: play in the preseason and that's what happened. So essentially 1084 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 4: the first two or three weeks is used as a 1085 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:34,480 Speaker 4: preseason game. So I will I do think there will 1086 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,719 Speaker 4: be a little bit of sloppiness, but all in all right, 1087 00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,480 Speaker 4: those interior three guys have been there the whole offseason, 1088 00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 4: have been there the whole training camp. Hopefully those guys 1089 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:45,360 Speaker 4: can hold it down while the tackles come along in 1090 00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:46,279 Speaker 4: the first couple of weeks. 1091 00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:52,279 Speaker 9: What do you anticipate the backfield share to look like 1092 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:55,160 Speaker 9: on offense for the Jets? Because we saw Preese Hall 1093 00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:58,800 Speaker 9: this week said he's quote pretty confident in his surgically 1094 00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:02,160 Speaker 9: repaired knee. Dalvin Cook, as we know, is coming off 1095 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 9: a shoulder injury from last season himself, and I saw that. 1096 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:08,200 Speaker 9: Robert Salad said this week it's going to be kind 1097 00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 9: of a check in with Breese type situation as the 1098 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 9: game unfold, potentially series to series. I would guess, what 1099 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:19,480 Speaker 9: do you think is realistic to expect in terms of 1100 00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:21,560 Speaker 9: workload and balance between those two. 1101 00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:23,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I want to say the first four weeks of 1102 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,040 Speaker 4: the season, Chris that it's literally going to be fifty 1103 00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:28,920 Speaker 4: to fifty with Michael Carter probably sprinkled in there here 1104 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 4: and there. Right you talked about it Breese, how's coming 1105 00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:33,920 Speaker 4: off a major injury and they want to be smart 1106 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:35,720 Speaker 4: in regards to bringing him along. 1107 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:36,840 Speaker 3: We saw how. 1108 00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:39,040 Speaker 4: Explosive he is in those first seven weeks of the 1109 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:41,520 Speaker 4: season last year. I mean, he had a sixty plus 1110 00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:44,440 Speaker 4: yard touchdown run versus Denver Broncos took an end a 1111 00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 4: round versus the Green Bay Packers forty plus yards, So 1112 00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:49,600 Speaker 4: he has that ability in the open field to bust 1113 00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:51,600 Speaker 4: went out for a touchdown and I know, you know, 1114 00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:53,880 Speaker 4: you guys aren't looking, or a few people that are looking. 1115 00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 4: You see the speed right there. That's a safety with 1116 00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:58,320 Speaker 4: an angle that he just ran by in the open field. 1117 00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 4: And again, if he hadn't gotten hurt, he probably wins 1118 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,160 Speaker 4: Offensive Rookie of the Year last year and then you 1119 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:05,439 Speaker 4: talk about Dalvin Cook coming off the soldier injury, didn't 1120 00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 4: take a lot of reps in camp. Matter of fact, 1121 00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 4: didn't really get any reps until the last week of 1122 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:11,880 Speaker 4: training camp, and they brought him along these. 1123 00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:12,439 Speaker 3: Last two weeks. 1124 00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 4: So you gotta be cognizant of that, right, I always 1125 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 4: say as a veteran player, and Briestall is not a veteran, 1126 00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:20,720 Speaker 4: but Dalvin Cook is like, we probably need about two 1127 00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:22,920 Speaker 4: weeks of ramp up here to really. 1128 00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:24,840 Speaker 3: Feel comfortable going get into the season. 1129 00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 4: And that's what Dalvin Cook kind of got towards the 1130 00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 4: end of training camp and these two weeks as he's 1131 00:58:29,080 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 4: prepared for the Buffalo Bills. But honestly, I'd see Dalvin 1132 00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 4: Cook just getting a tad bit more carries in the 1133 00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:37,040 Speaker 4: beginning of the year as they bring along Bressaw, and 1134 00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:39,360 Speaker 4: then who knows. I think after week four it'll be 1135 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 4: whoever has a hot hand, it's probably gonna get more 1136 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:42,200 Speaker 4: carries going forward. 1137 00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:44,320 Speaker 2: As you see this game, we went back just a 1138 00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:46,160 Speaker 2: minute ago before you came on, and we're looking at 1139 00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:49,400 Speaker 2: last year's matchups. In the first matchup, it looked like 1140 00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:51,760 Speaker 2: the Bills kind of did it to themselves. Josh turned 1141 00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:53,640 Speaker 2: it over down deep in the end on the opening 1142 00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:55,640 Speaker 2: drive of the game, and then he turned it over 1143 00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:58,440 Speaker 2: and the Bills end they miss a field goal, So 1144 00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:00,960 Speaker 2: there was you know, they give up a chance to score, 1145 00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,160 Speaker 2: they give the Jets easy points, and then they miss 1146 00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:05,600 Speaker 2: a field goal in a three point game. You could 1147 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:08,400 Speaker 2: make a case that in the loss the Jets played 1148 00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:13,080 Speaker 2: better against John or in the win. In the Jets loss, 1149 00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:15,720 Speaker 2: the Jets played better against Josh Allen than they did 1150 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 2: in the game that they actually beat him in. What 1151 00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:20,320 Speaker 2: do you think this game is gonna look like now 1152 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 2: with the you know, and Josh Allen and their defense 1153 00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:25,480 Speaker 2: stop putting the brakes on the Bills offense. 1154 00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm glad you brought that up, task because 1155 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 4: in that Jets win, I believe it's twenty seventeen, Josh 1156 00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 4: Allen did turn it over in the red zone, but 1157 00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:35,240 Speaker 4: so did Zach Wilson. Let's not forget Von Miller came 1158 00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:37,800 Speaker 4: off the edge sack fumble, So those are points both 1159 00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:40,560 Speaker 4: teams lost in the red zone when you talk about that, 1160 00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:42,760 Speaker 4: and I think this is gonna be a hard fought 1161 00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:45,200 Speaker 4: divisional game. I mean, anytime you play within the Division. 1162 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 4: It's gonna be a close game. Now when you look 1163 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:49,800 Speaker 4: at it, right, there's both there's question marks on both 1164 00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:50,640 Speaker 4: offensive lines. 1165 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:50,960 Speaker 2: Right. 1166 00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:53,760 Speaker 4: So we saw in that second game that the Bills 1167 00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 4: defensive line beat Mike White to way Pope. Literally it 1168 00:59:57,160 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 4: was bad. I was actually nervous for Mike White and game. 1169 01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:02,440 Speaker 4: He got ugly at a certain part. And then the 1170 01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:05,120 Speaker 4: first game, the Jets defensive line got after the Bills 1171 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 4: off the offensive line and Josh Allen was sacked five times. 1172 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:10,160 Speaker 4: And let's not forget when the Bills had a chance 1173 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:12,480 Speaker 4: to win that game at the end, Spencer Brown got 1174 01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:14,720 Speaker 4: beat by Bryce Up And then that's when Josh Allen 1175 01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:16,360 Speaker 4: had the elbow injury. A lot of people thought he 1176 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:18,560 Speaker 4: may not play for a while, end up playing the 1177 01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:20,920 Speaker 4: next week. So when you look at this game, I 1178 01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:22,720 Speaker 4: always look at matchups, I think it's gonna be the 1179 01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:25,320 Speaker 4: Jets defensive line versus the Bills offensive line. And then 1180 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,760 Speaker 4: also the Jets have a new free safety, Tony Adams, 1181 01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:31,680 Speaker 4: undrafted free agent last year. Dalton Kinkaid is a guy 1182 01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:33,360 Speaker 4: that the Bills are gonna try to use in that 1183 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:35,520 Speaker 4: slot as a big slot, right, They're gonna try to 1184 01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:38,080 Speaker 4: test him down the seam. That's the matchup I'm gonna 1185 01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:40,480 Speaker 4: be really interested in, right because Tony Adams is a 1186 01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 4: first year starter playing against Dalton Kinkaid, who's one of 1187 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:47,040 Speaker 4: the best tight end catching tight ends coming out of 1188 01:00:47,120 --> 01:00:49,520 Speaker 4: college last year, and you've already seen how they've kind 1189 01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 4: of used him throughout the preseason. So you know, when 1190 01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 4: kun Dorsey goes at twelve personnel, it'll be how those 1191 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:58,480 Speaker 4: safeties are able to you know, minimize Dalton Kinkaid and 1192 01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 4: then on the other side, offensive line can minimize his 1193 01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:02,720 Speaker 4: pass rush from the Jets. 1194 01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 8: Yeah, which which brings me to my next question. 1195 01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:07,920 Speaker 9: Let's flesh that out a little bit, because Jamie and 1196 01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:11,040 Speaker 9: Sherwood is a new starter in the front seven with 1197 01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:16,360 Speaker 9: the loss of Kwan Alexander to free agency. Considered pretty athletic. 1198 01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 9: But if Dalton Kincaid is slicing up linebackers and you 1199 01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:23,760 Speaker 9: know they got to put an extra safety on the 1200 01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:28,400 Speaker 9: field and Adrian Amos, how how readily willing do you 1201 01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:32,120 Speaker 9: think sala and his defensive staff are to go three 1202 01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:35,439 Speaker 9: safety looks as an alternative to try to slow that down. 1203 01:01:36,320 --> 01:01:37,080 Speaker 3: That's a great question. 1204 01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:39,400 Speaker 4: Chris and Salas actually already talked about that he said 1205 01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:41,200 Speaker 4: there are some packages where we're going to have a 1206 01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:44,640 Speaker 4: three safety look with Adrian Amos. So Adrian Amos has 1207 01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:46,680 Speaker 4: looked really good in camp. It was a nice battle 1208 01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:50,080 Speaker 4: between essentially him and you know, Tony Adams. Tony Adams 1209 01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 4: went out because if you look at the Jets defense 1210 01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:55,960 Speaker 4: more specifically the safety position, Tony Adams is really their 1211 01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:58,280 Speaker 4: only true ballhawk. The rest of those guys are more 1212 01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:01,840 Speaker 4: in the box type safeties, right, physical guys Jordan and Whitehead, 1213 01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:05,200 Speaker 4: Adrian Amos, those are physical safeties, right. So Tony Adams 1214 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:07,320 Speaker 4: brings that element as far as being able to track 1215 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:09,600 Speaker 4: the ball and go get it. So I would not 1216 01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:12,080 Speaker 4: be surprised if Robert Sala because of what you talked 1217 01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 4: about the skill set that Dalton Kincaid brings him. Maybe 1218 01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:17,880 Speaker 4: even going nickel. Michael Carter's one of the best slot 1219 01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:20,560 Speaker 4: corners in all of football. I can see them going nickel, 1220 01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:23,240 Speaker 4: and Michael Carter's a physical slot, so he'll show up 1221 01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:25,640 Speaker 4: and run support in the run game. So he could 1222 01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:27,840 Speaker 4: either do that or he'll go the three safety look 1223 01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:28,800 Speaker 4: with Adrian Amos. 1224 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 2: So you got you come into this game and it's 1225 01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:32,880 Speaker 2: just like every other opening game. There's a lot of 1226 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,160 Speaker 2: stuff we don't know. You've got a new offensive coordinator, 1227 01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:37,560 Speaker 2: a new quarterback in New York. The Bills have a 1228 01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:40,240 Speaker 2: new defensive coordinator. Sean mcdermot's going to be calling the 1229 01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:44,960 Speaker 2: defensive place questions at offensive tackle on the Bills, questions 1230 01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 2: at offensive tackle of the Jets. I mean, what do 1231 01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:51,040 Speaker 2: you think is the biggest unknown of all the stuff 1232 01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:52,840 Speaker 2: the storylines on both of these teams? 1233 01:02:55,040 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 4: Will Can Dorsey be cognizant enough and stick to enough 1234 01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 4: the run game with James Cook? 1235 01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:04,440 Speaker 3: That's the biggest question to me at. 1236 01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:06,360 Speaker 4: Least, because if you look at it right, there was 1237 01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:08,480 Speaker 4: a while there where Josh Allen was turning the ball over. 1238 01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 4: It was about mid season. I think it was a 1239 01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:13,880 Speaker 4: game where the Bills played Cleveland Detroit. I'm not mistaken. 1240 01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:16,000 Speaker 4: That was the game that changed things, right. He really 1241 01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:18,520 Speaker 4: focused on the run game that game and it propelled 1242 01:03:18,560 --> 01:03:21,080 Speaker 4: the Bills to victory. And if you look through preseason 1243 01:03:21,200 --> 01:03:22,920 Speaker 4: what the Bills have done, they've done a really good 1244 01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:25,560 Speaker 4: job running the football with James Cook. So that's what 1245 01:03:25,680 --> 01:03:27,800 Speaker 4: I want to see, right, is he gonna be cognizant 1246 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:30,320 Speaker 4: enough to stick with that run game. I think Josh 1247 01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:32,320 Speaker 4: Allen will have to make a few plays with his legs. 1248 01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:34,600 Speaker 4: I believe in the two matchups last year he was 1249 01:03:34,680 --> 01:03:36,960 Speaker 4: the leading rusher. I mean, if I'm not mistaken, Josh 1250 01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 4: Allen has been the leading rusher I would say the 1251 01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:41,000 Speaker 4: last three years or the last two years for the Bills. 1252 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 4: So he's gonna have to make some plays. But I 1253 01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:45,840 Speaker 4: think the Bills are gonna have to be effective in 1254 01:03:45,960 --> 01:03:48,120 Speaker 4: this run game because when you have an aggressive D 1255 01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:50,360 Speaker 4: line like that, you have to slow them down some 1256 01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:52,600 Speaker 4: type of way. You don't want to be in third 1257 01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:55,800 Speaker 4: and long and second and long situation situations. They did 1258 01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:58,880 Speaker 4: that the first time in MetLife didn't go bode well 1259 01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:00,480 Speaker 4: for the Bills. So I want to see if Ken 1260 01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:03,600 Speaker 4: Dorsey sticks to this run game early in this game. 1261 01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:06,800 Speaker 9: You know, and as much has been made about these 1262 01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:10,280 Speaker 9: two defensive fronts in this game, they are playing against 1263 01:04:10,280 --> 01:04:13,480 Speaker 9: two quarterbacks that have some of the best passer ratings 1264 01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:18,360 Speaker 9: in primetime football history. One Allen's like one oh seven, 1265 01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:21,560 Speaker 9: Rogers is right behind him at one oh six. Do 1266 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 9: we really believe that the defensive fronts are gonna have 1267 01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:27,480 Speaker 9: the better of this game, or do you think it's 1268 01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:29,840 Speaker 9: gonna be the franchise qbs that kind of come out 1269 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:31,440 Speaker 9: on top here and maybe have a little bit more 1270 01:04:31,480 --> 01:04:32,920 Speaker 9: to say about how this thing turns out. 1271 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:35,440 Speaker 4: Well, Chris, I'm not just saying this because I'm a 1272 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:38,560 Speaker 4: former defensive lineman. But we talked about this earlier, right, 1273 01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:41,960 Speaker 4: Offenses are kind of, you know, slower in the beginning 1274 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:43,880 Speaker 4: of the season because a lot of guys don't play 1275 01:04:43,920 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 4: in preseason. Right, There's not a lot of continuity in 1276 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:49,200 Speaker 4: those first two or three weeks now unless you you 1277 01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:51,960 Speaker 4: know either Dolphins or the Chargers, who obviously their offenses 1278 01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:54,440 Speaker 4: are hitting on all cylinders because they both put up 1279 01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:57,360 Speaker 4: thirty plus points in that game yesterday, But most teams 1280 01:04:57,400 --> 01:04:59,720 Speaker 4: you saw a lot of low scoring games this past 1281 01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:03,480 Speaker 4: week this past weekend because offenses are usually slower in. 1282 01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:04,720 Speaker 3: The beginning of the season. 1283 01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:07,720 Speaker 4: So again, you're right, both of these quarterbacks have been 1284 01:05:07,800 --> 01:05:08,800 Speaker 4: tremendous in primetime. 1285 01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:10,360 Speaker 3: I believe Aaron Rodgers. 1286 01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:13,640 Speaker 4: Is nine to zero on Monday Night football, so when 1287 01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:15,880 Speaker 4: Monday Night football comes around, he just gets it done. 1288 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:18,080 Speaker 4: And Josh Allen as well, he shows up big and 1289 01:05:18,240 --> 01:05:21,680 Speaker 4: primetime games. But I do believe these defensive fronts will 1290 01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:22,880 Speaker 4: make an imprint. 1291 01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:24,560 Speaker 2: On this game early, and it could come down to 1292 01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 2: as well, just the timeliness of the plays. They may 1293 01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:29,280 Speaker 2: only get one sack, but if it's at the right time. 1294 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:34,720 Speaker 2: This game, I think the Bills rarely, if ever, lose 1295 01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:38,600 Speaker 2: by more than a possession. It's just the way the 1296 01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:43,400 Speaker 2: Jets last year, the three point game, the getaway game 1297 01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:47,000 Speaker 2: from the Minnesota Vikings, the Bills drop. So even if 1298 01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:48,680 Speaker 2: the Bills don't win this game, you can bet it's 1299 01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:50,720 Speaker 2: gonna be a one possession game and it's gonna be hard. 1300 01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:52,560 Speaker 2: I don't think anybody can run off and leave the 1301 01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:56,280 Speaker 2: Jet defense in the dust. Either offensively. This game's gonna 1302 01:05:56,280 --> 01:06:00,240 Speaker 2: come down to a play, right, I mean it's going 1303 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:02,280 Speaker 2: to come down to maybe you'll be able to count 1304 01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:04,560 Speaker 2: three plays in the entire game that will have made 1305 01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:07,400 Speaker 2: a difference, and if you win those plays, you win 1306 01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:09,640 Speaker 2: this game. I think it's going to be an absolutely 1307 01:06:09,720 --> 01:06:11,800 Speaker 2: tight game between two teams, whether it's in the low 1308 01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:15,240 Speaker 2: twenties late teams, or if it's in the low to 1309 01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:17,800 Speaker 2: mid thirties. But I think both these clubs are going 1310 01:06:17,840 --> 01:06:19,320 Speaker 2: to do the exact same thing to each other. 1311 01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm glad you brought that up. 1312 01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:23,680 Speaker 4: Tests and I had a coach always tell me, like, 1313 01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:26,360 Speaker 4: the game comes down to three or five pivotal plays 1314 01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:28,920 Speaker 4: in the game, and that means even more in a 1315 01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,600 Speaker 4: divisional matchup because you know your opponent, you played them 1316 01:06:31,680 --> 01:06:32,240 Speaker 4: twice a year. 1317 01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:33,520 Speaker 3: You just spoke to it. Right. 1318 01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:36,160 Speaker 4: The Jets won one game by three, the Bills won 1319 01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:38,120 Speaker 4: one game by one position, they won by eight, right, 1320 01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:39,760 Speaker 4: So if the Jets score and get a two point conversion, 1321 01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:43,000 Speaker 4: that's one possession. So teche Nick, you know tight close 1322 01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:45,560 Speaker 4: games in the visional matchups, right, And if you look 1323 01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:48,720 Speaker 4: at it, even though last year the Jets didn't really 1324 01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:51,720 Speaker 4: have comparable quarterback play, they still were able to eke 1325 01:06:51,800 --> 01:06:54,120 Speaker 4: out a win and get close in another game. So 1326 01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:57,160 Speaker 4: like divisional games, you can throw out that spread and 1327 01:06:57,240 --> 01:07:00,320 Speaker 4: all that means nothing in the visional games. Like restily, 1328 01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:02,160 Speaker 4: a guy like me who's been in this AFC East 1329 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:04,080 Speaker 4: for most of my career, I know that most of 1330 01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:06,840 Speaker 4: these games are coming down to that last possession. 1331 01:07:06,880 --> 01:07:08,120 Speaker 3: I think this game will as well. 1332 01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:12,240 Speaker 8: Leja, thanks for the time, enjoy the game tonight should 1333 01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:13,200 Speaker 8: be a doozy. 1334 01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:14,880 Speaker 3: Yeah literally pun intended. 1335 01:07:15,400 --> 01:07:18,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, that's leg DuSable. 1336 01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:21,520 Speaker 9: Joining us here CBS Sports analysts covering the Jets and 1337 01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:23,920 Speaker 9: checks in with us every time the Bills and Jets 1338 01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:28,360 Speaker 9: square off.

Yeah, 1349 01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:07,440 Speaker 9: and light of some of the lopsided games we saw 1350 01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:09,880 Speaker 9: this week, it might be we are asking you at 1351 01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:12,440 Speaker 9: eight oh three oh five point fifty one eight eight 1352 01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:15,040 Speaker 9: eight five fifty two five fifty what is your key 1353 01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:19,439 Speaker 9: to a Bill's victory tonight. We've heard some interesting comments 1354 01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:21,800 Speaker 9: to this point. One of our callers said, hey, they 1355 01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:23,880 Speaker 9: just have to be patient on offense, take what the 1356 01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:25,080 Speaker 9: Jets defense gives them. 1357 01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:26,080 Speaker 8: We've heard that before. 1358 01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:32,320 Speaker 9: We've also heard some comments about being able to mix 1359 01:08:32,400 --> 01:08:35,439 Speaker 9: in the run game to some degree, to keep them honest, 1360 01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:39,479 Speaker 9: so they're not teeing off on Josh So and a 1361 01:08:39,520 --> 01:08:41,240 Speaker 9: lot of people are of the opinion that, you know, 1362 01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:43,640 Speaker 9: the offensive line play is going to be critical to 1363 01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 9: any measure of success tonight, so that is no surprise. 1364 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:48,799 Speaker 9: But if you have something to offer to the conversation, 1365 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:51,800 Speaker 9: we welcome it. Eight oh three oh five fifty one 1366 01:08:51,960 --> 01:08:54,080 Speaker 9: eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty the number 1367 01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:56,600 Speaker 9: to get on board. We'll also check in on the 1368 01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:59,600 Speaker 9: tweetsheet in just a little bit here, Steve, did you 1369 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:02,240 Speaker 9: have I know you already mentioned it, like you think 1370 01:09:02,320 --> 01:09:05,200 Speaker 9: it's a trench battle tonight and who wins there probably 1371 01:09:05,240 --> 01:09:09,080 Speaker 9: wins this game because it's still reliant on. 1372 01:09:09,160 --> 01:09:10,559 Speaker 8: The big guys to make things happen. 1373 01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:13,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Bill's got to content. The Bill's got to 1374 01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:15,200 Speaker 2: contend with a really good pass rush in the Jets, 1375 01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:17,000 Speaker 2: and it's gonna be a deep pass rush. They're gonna 1376 01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:18,600 Speaker 2: be able to bring some guys off the edges and 1377 01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:22,160 Speaker 2: from the interior, no matter who's playing, no matter what combination, 1378 01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:23,840 Speaker 2: the Jets will bring him in fresh, just like the 1379 01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 2: Bills like to do as well, and vice versa. The 1380 01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:29,920 Speaker 2: Jets have some questions answer on the offensive line. Certainly, 1381 01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:32,920 Speaker 2: Dwayne Brown's probably gonna be fine tonight. He's a sixteen 1382 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,200 Speaker 2: year vet. He may be long in the tooth, but 1383 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:39,280 Speaker 2: he's also long on guts, toughness and experience, so he's 1384 01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 2: gonna be a tough out. Makai Becton's a bigger question mark. 1385 01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:43,760 Speaker 2: But they've got to contend with the Bills, and I 1386 01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:47,439 Speaker 2: think the Bill's defensive front has shows some size and 1387 01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:50,160 Speaker 2: some athleticism as well. So it's gonna be an interesting battle. 1388 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:54,240 Speaker 2: Do either of these quarterbacks get put in harm's way, 1389 01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:57,400 Speaker 2: Are they gonna be battling for it? I don't know. 1390 01:09:57,560 --> 01:09:59,920 Speaker 2: At times, of course, both of them will be under pressure. 1391 01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:03,200 Speaker 2: Who can handle that best, Who has the most answers 1392 01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:05,320 Speaker 2: is going to be the question mark and whether the quarterback, 1393 01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:07,280 Speaker 2: and you know Rogers is gonna put it up for grabs. 1394 01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:10,799 Speaker 2: He rarely throws interceptions. This guy has got a touchdown 1395 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:15,040 Speaker 2: to interception ratio that's as good as there's ever been. Josh, 1396 01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:17,840 Speaker 2: on the other hand, slings it and that could be 1397 01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:20,040 Speaker 2: an issue for the Bills. You can't turn it over 1398 01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:22,719 Speaker 2: against a good offense and a good defense and expect 1399 01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:24,479 Speaker 2: to have a chance to win the game. The Bills 1400 01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:27,280 Speaker 2: did it to themselves last year, and it was their 1401 01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:29,840 Speaker 2: achilles heel for most of the season. We'll see if 1402 01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:32,439 Speaker 2: another year under Josh's belt and another year with Ken 1403 01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:36,360 Speaker 2: Dorsey and some more weapons and some more answers, maybe 1404 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:39,000 Speaker 2: that cures that ill. But certainly it was a problem 1405 01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:39,519 Speaker 2: last year. 1406 01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:43,759 Speaker 9: Josh has twenty nine turnovers over the last two seasons. 1407 01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:48,799 Speaker 9: That leads the NFL hope, and as we said earlier, 1408 01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:51,360 Speaker 9: he's talked about it all week that he's got to. 1409 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:53,120 Speaker 8: Eliminate those kinds of mistakes. 1410 01:10:53,800 --> 01:10:56,800 Speaker 9: So he's gonna have to strike a balance between risk 1411 01:10:56,880 --> 01:10:59,960 Speaker 9: and reward, especially against the defense of discount. 1412 01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:02,960 Speaker 8: Here tonight, let's go back to. 1413 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:06,000 Speaker 9: The phones at eight oh three five fifty one, eight 1414 01:11:06,240 --> 01:11:09,160 Speaker 9: eight five fifty two, five fifty as we are looking 1415 01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 9: for your keys to a Bill's victory against the Jets tonight, 1416 01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:14,280 Speaker 9: and to David in Tanawanda, what do you got for us? 1417 01:11:14,360 --> 01:11:17,040 Speaker 18: David, Hey, thank you for taking my call. 1418 01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:21,200 Speaker 19: I did just want to basically say, uh, for tonight's game. 1419 01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:26,320 Speaker 19: The biggest thing that I honestly think would honestly be 1420 01:11:27,080 --> 01:11:29,479 Speaker 19: that Josh Allen just he's got to keep his head 1421 01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:33,280 Speaker 19: in the game. I know, he beats hisself up over 1422 01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:38,679 Speaker 19: just about every single bad play that happens if they're 1423 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:42,040 Speaker 19: if there's a player that you're supposed to throw the 1424 01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:44,479 Speaker 19: ball to, but you see somebody doubts that's open that 1425 01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:47,720 Speaker 19: you can possibly get that first down with. Honestly, think 1426 01:11:48,280 --> 01:11:50,639 Speaker 19: he's just he's gotta he's got to use his head 1427 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:55,599 Speaker 19: definitely against this game against the team. We're definitely going 1428 01:11:55,640 --> 01:12:01,479 Speaker 19: against a team that did do some damnage last year 1429 01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:05,360 Speaker 19: with us, that did show us exactly what we can 1430 01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,120 Speaker 19: be able to do. So Josh, you just got to 1431 01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:10,600 Speaker 19: keep his head in the game, keep it positive, and 1432 01:12:11,479 --> 01:12:14,559 Speaker 19: know exactly where he's gonna end up throwing that ball still. 1433 01:12:16,560 --> 01:12:18,960 Speaker 8: Yeah, all right, David, thanks for the call. Appreciate it. 1434 01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:21,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's that same thing, you take what the 1435 01:12:21,560 --> 01:12:24,880 Speaker 2: defense gives you, and that's you know, sometimes quarterbacks like Josh, 1436 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:27,080 Speaker 2: even Aaron Rodgers, you kind of get impatient with that. 1437 01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:29,680 Speaker 2: And we had one caller earlier that said, patience is 1438 01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:31,479 Speaker 2: gonna be the key, and I would agree with that. 1439 01:12:32,800 --> 01:12:36,600 Speaker 2: There's gonna be guys open. Josh, you gotta make the 1440 01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:38,160 Speaker 2: reason make the throws. But he's got to do and 1441 01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:40,120 Speaker 2: he's gonna have to do it on time. There's not 1442 01:12:40,160 --> 01:12:42,439 Speaker 2: gonna be any extra time to stand back there and 1443 01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:45,640 Speaker 2: and go to that second and third option on some 1444 01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:48,160 Speaker 2: of these plays. Because I think the defensive front of 1445 01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:50,479 Speaker 2: the Jets is really quality and they're gonna they're gonna 1446 01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:53,800 Speaker 2: make some hay so Ken Dorris is gonna have to 1447 01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:56,640 Speaker 2: have some things to counteract that. Some play calls, and 1448 01:12:57,200 --> 01:12:59,559 Speaker 2: some of the callers are right. You know, you'd love 1449 01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:01,519 Speaker 2: to be able to run the football whenever you want 1450 01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:06,640 Speaker 2: in this game, but you know second and twelve is 1451 01:13:06,720 --> 01:13:09,680 Speaker 2: not a great place to start. You know, if you're 1452 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:11,599 Speaker 2: gonna hand it off on first down, you better get 1453 01:13:11,680 --> 01:13:15,360 Speaker 2: four or five or six yards or the running game 1454 01:13:15,439 --> 01:13:17,400 Speaker 2: is going to go on the back burner pretty quickly. 1455 01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:19,479 Speaker 8: Right. 1456 01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:22,000 Speaker 9: Couple of cleanup notes from when we had le j 1457 01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:25,880 Speaker 9: Dusabal on last segment. It wasn't Spencer Brown that gave 1458 01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:29,400 Speaker 9: up the sack that got Josh hurt in Week nine 1459 01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:31,720 Speaker 9: last year. That was David Questenberry. He was in for 1460 01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:35,679 Speaker 9: an injured Spencer Brown. And he also said that Aaron 1461 01:13:35,760 --> 01:13:38,479 Speaker 9: Rodgers is nine and oh and Monday night in his career. 1462 01:13:39,240 --> 01:13:40,200 Speaker 8: That is incorrect. 1463 01:13:40,360 --> 01:13:43,280 Speaker 9: He is nine and oh in his last nine Monday 1464 01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:45,800 Speaker 9: Night appearances, but he has lost Monday Night games. His 1465 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 9: last Monday Night loss was in twenty thirteen, nine Monday 1466 01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:53,080 Speaker 9: Night games ago, so he is on a nine game 1467 01:13:53,160 --> 01:13:56,360 Speaker 9: winning streak on Monday Night. Back to the phones and 1468 01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:58,600 Speaker 9: to Brian and Alabama, what do you got for us? 1469 01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:00,960 Speaker 8: Let me pull you up here. What you got first? Brian? 1470 01:14:00,960 --> 01:14:01,800 Speaker 8: You're on one Bill's lot. 1471 01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:03,519 Speaker 20: Hey, good afternoon fellows. 1472 01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:05,280 Speaker 18: How you guys going good? 1473 01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:05,679 Speaker 8: Great? 1474 01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:06,880 Speaker 3: Hey? 1475 01:14:07,960 --> 01:14:11,360 Speaker 20: My biggest thing what today's game is. I feel like 1476 01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:16,320 Speaker 20: whoever can control their emotions the best is going to 1477 01:14:17,200 --> 01:14:21,320 Speaker 20: dictate how the game goes. And specifically for Buffalo, I 1478 01:14:21,400 --> 01:14:24,439 Speaker 20: feel like if they can just weather the storm or 1479 01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:28,000 Speaker 20: the emotions of the atmosphere, if the Jets come out hot, 1480 01:14:28,560 --> 01:14:30,519 Speaker 20: if they just stay of course, I feel like they 1481 01:14:30,600 --> 01:14:33,160 Speaker 20: can hang in this game. And then on the flip side, 1482 01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:36,040 Speaker 20: I feel like if the Jets Jets emotions are too 1483 01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:39,080 Speaker 20: high and they come out making mistakes, I feel like 1484 01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:41,240 Speaker 20: the Bills need to go ahead and jump on them early, 1485 01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:43,560 Speaker 20: to go ahead and kill any type of buzz or 1486 01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:47,599 Speaker 20: momentum just based off of just everything that's the run 1487 01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:49,280 Speaker 20: in the game. So I feel like that's going to 1488 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:51,080 Speaker 20: play the biggest role tonight. 1489 01:14:51,760 --> 01:14:55,080 Speaker 2: That's all I had yertainly nearly going, Certainly in the 1490 01:14:55,320 --> 01:14:57,519 Speaker 2: early going that may be the case. But I'll say this, 1491 01:14:57,920 --> 01:15:00,680 Speaker 2: I remember being in parts of some where you had 1492 01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:04,479 Speaker 2: kind of an extra emotional boost that tends to go 1493 01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:06,760 Speaker 2: away after the first few minutes of the game. You 1494 01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:10,200 Speaker 2: kind of settle in to the game. These games are 1495 01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:13,400 Speaker 2: too physical and too demanding for you to be distracted 1496 01:15:13,479 --> 01:15:16,120 Speaker 2: by the stuff going on. Now, certainly in the early going, 1497 01:15:16,520 --> 01:15:18,519 Speaker 2: you'll go out there and you run a little faster, 1498 01:15:18,600 --> 01:15:21,160 Speaker 2: you jump a little higher, you yell a little louder. 1499 01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:23,400 Speaker 2: You you know, you do everything a little bit more 1500 01:15:24,080 --> 01:15:26,719 Speaker 2: and more intensely than you would normally. But after a minute, 1501 01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:29,080 Speaker 2: you start just playing your game. Everybody will do that. 1502 01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:33,200 Speaker 2: How long those emotions last into the game and how 1503 01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:38,920 Speaker 2: long until they're just playing, I don't know. Maybe it 1504 01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:41,120 Speaker 2: will last a little longer than usual because it is 1505 01:15:41,200 --> 01:15:42,680 Speaker 2: nine to eleven and because it is going to be 1506 01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:47,760 Speaker 2: such a spectacle, But sooner or later, the players and 1507 01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:49,840 Speaker 2: the coaches will all settle in and start playing like 1508 01:15:49,920 --> 01:15:57,000 Speaker 2: they've always played. You can't win the game in that first, 1509 01:15:57,120 --> 01:15:59,920 Speaker 2: you know, emotional statement, but you can certainly dig yourself 1510 01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:04,160 Speaker 2: a hole as well. So yeah, I think you're right. 1511 01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:04,439 Speaker 3: It is. 1512 01:16:04,760 --> 01:16:07,000 Speaker 2: It is important that you keep that stuff a lid 1513 01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:09,240 Speaker 2: on your emotions and start and play as good as 1514 01:16:09,280 --> 01:16:10,679 Speaker 2: you can play without getting crazy. 1515 01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:12,560 Speaker 8: Use it if you can, let me. 1516 01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:15,560 Speaker 9: I got a question for you on that, Steve, So 1517 01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:20,280 Speaker 9: knowing that emotions are going to be really high at 1518 01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:23,880 Speaker 9: the start of this game, either a because of the 1519 01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:26,240 Speaker 9: emotions that get stirred up with a nine to eleven ceremony, 1520 01:16:26,479 --> 01:16:28,080 Speaker 9: or B the fact that it's the first game of 1521 01:16:28,120 --> 01:16:29,880 Speaker 9: the year, it's Monday night, it's prime time and all 1522 01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:30,040 Speaker 9: of that. 1523 01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:32,960 Speaker 8: Would you as a coach. 1524 01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:36,439 Speaker 9: When the emotions are that high and maybe have to 1525 01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:38,519 Speaker 9: come down a little bit rather have your offense on 1526 01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 9: the field or your defense on the field. 1527 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:42,080 Speaker 2: It's good question. If you win the toss, do you defer, 1528 01:16:42,200 --> 01:16:45,719 Speaker 2: do do you receive? You know, I mean analytics says defer, 1529 01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:49,440 Speaker 2: But I think you got high. You go with the analytics, 1530 01:16:49,479 --> 01:16:51,120 Speaker 2: You do what you normally do. You don't do anything 1531 01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:55,760 Speaker 2: out of the ordinary. But I get your point. I 1532 01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:58,200 Speaker 2: think you got to trust your players to handle it 1533 01:16:59,160 --> 01:17:01,960 Speaker 2: and and them turn them lose. In fact that I think, 1534 01:17:02,160 --> 01:17:03,880 Speaker 2: like I said earlier, I think the best thing a 1535 01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:05,600 Speaker 2: coach can do in a game like this. And I 1536 01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:08,120 Speaker 2: was in four Super Bowls, and I say that I 1537 01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:10,280 Speaker 2: don't think we were ever able to do this, which 1538 01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:12,479 Speaker 2: is why I think maybe it's the key to win 1539 01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:15,120 Speaker 2: the stinking thing that these big games, these big moments. 1540 01:17:15,680 --> 01:17:18,320 Speaker 2: I think the best mindset to have in a game 1541 01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:22,240 Speaker 2: where it's really big, or it's a Super Bowl or 1542 01:17:22,360 --> 01:17:24,880 Speaker 2: championship game or one of these games is to go 1543 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:28,240 Speaker 2: out and play like it, like there ain't no consequences, 1544 01:17:28,840 --> 01:17:31,760 Speaker 2: Like you can't lose, you know, go out and play 1545 01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:33,840 Speaker 2: like you're showing off for your mom on the front porch. 1546 01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:35,800 Speaker 2: You know, you say, mom, come out here and watch this. 1547 01:17:35,920 --> 01:17:38,080 Speaker 2: You know, just like there's no consequence. Mom's gonna love 1548 01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,400 Speaker 2: you anyway, right, So you just go out and show off. 1549 01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:42,320 Speaker 2: That's kind of the mindset you need to have in 1550 01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:46,360 Speaker 2: games like this where and coaches. It's hard for coaches 1551 01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:50,240 Speaker 2: to let loose like that because they're afraid some you know, 1552 01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:52,800 Speaker 2: in some way, shape or form, the players will get undisciplined, 1553 01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:55,360 Speaker 2: or they'll start to make silly mistakes, or they'll try 1554 01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:58,400 Speaker 2: things they shouldn't try in order to you know, show 1555 01:17:58,479 --> 01:18:00,800 Speaker 2: off or whatever. But I think if you've got a 1556 01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:02,880 Speaker 2: pro team and you got your pulse and you know 1557 01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:04,800 Speaker 2: they're your team well enough, you say, hey, guys, go 1558 01:18:04,800 --> 01:18:07,599 Speaker 2: out and have fun, turn loose, let's go. I think 1559 01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:11,880 Speaker 2: that kind of free, willing spirit and mentality is the 1560 01:18:11,960 --> 01:18:13,920 Speaker 2: best way to go into a game where you think 1561 01:18:13,960 --> 01:18:16,720 Speaker 2: your team might be a little tight because of the 1562 01:18:16,800 --> 01:18:17,920 Speaker 2: consequence still losing. 1563 01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:20,840 Speaker 9: Yeah, don't put the weight of the game on your 1564 01:18:20,880 --> 01:18:22,760 Speaker 9: shoulders and let it consume you, right. 1565 01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:25,680 Speaker 2: Do just the opposite, Yeah, dude, just the opposite of 1566 01:18:25,800 --> 01:18:27,680 Speaker 2: putting the weight of the game on your shoulders. Just 1567 01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:29,280 Speaker 2: put out like, hey, dude, this doesn't matter if you 1568 01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:30,920 Speaker 2: win or lose. We're gonna have another game next week. 1569 01:18:31,000 --> 01:18:34,320 Speaker 2: Let's go play, have some fun, you know, let's let's 1570 01:18:34,360 --> 01:18:36,040 Speaker 2: do this like we know we can. And I think 1571 01:18:36,120 --> 01:18:39,240 Speaker 2: that's a best that's the best mindset, I think, because 1572 01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:42,920 Speaker 2: you know it'll keep you playing, It'll keep you playing 1573 01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:47,120 Speaker 2: inspired football, looking for opportunities to make a difference. And 1574 01:18:47,240 --> 01:18:49,840 Speaker 2: you do have to depend on your discipline and your 1575 01:18:50,439 --> 01:18:52,960 Speaker 2: and your experience not to do anything stupid, you know, 1576 01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:55,080 Speaker 2: like be it, you know, six laterals and that kind 1577 01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:56,800 Speaker 2: of you know what I mean, Trying to do something 1578 01:18:56,840 --> 01:18:59,479 Speaker 2: crazy when you're when you're you know, there's no mad 1579 01:18:59,560 --> 01:19:03,000 Speaker 2: when it does matter, right, I exaggerate to make a point, 1580 01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:05,400 Speaker 2: but you get it. That's you got to trust your 1581 01:19:05,479 --> 01:19:10,160 Speaker 2: players that they're disciplined and their professionalism and their experience. 1582 01:19:10,160 --> 01:19:12,639 Speaker 2: They're not going to let them do anything off the charts. 1583 01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:15,479 Speaker 2: But you got to turn them loose mentally. In my opinion, 1584 01:19:15,560 --> 01:19:16,960 Speaker 2: that's hard for a lot of coaches to do. 1585 01:19:18,080 --> 01:19:22,000 Speaker 8: No, let's go to Mary in Boston, New York next. 1586 01:19:25,200 --> 01:19:28,800 Speaker 10: I just wanted to add in that I think penalties 1587 01:19:28,880 --> 01:19:31,240 Speaker 10: are going to be a big factor in this game, 1588 01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:36,680 Speaker 10: and we have to limit how many offensive line penalties 1589 01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:39,160 Speaker 10: we have, I mean defensive line penalties we have. We 1590 01:19:39,240 --> 01:19:42,160 Speaker 10: don't want to give them a lot of first downs. 1591 01:19:42,360 --> 01:19:46,760 Speaker 10: And also, tying into the emotional aspect of it, I 1592 01:19:46,880 --> 01:19:50,080 Speaker 10: do worry a little bit. Not only is it the 1593 01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:53,000 Speaker 10: first Monday night game of the year, it's nine to eleven, 1594 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:57,080 Speaker 10: the hype around Rodgers, I believe it's also the first 1595 01:19:57,120 --> 01:20:01,240 Speaker 10: Monday night game they've played since Hamilton and collapse, and 1596 01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:05,519 Speaker 10: I think mentally that might get triggered a little bit 1597 01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:06,920 Speaker 10: when those lights come on. 1598 01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:09,960 Speaker 13: Thanks case, that's all maybe all right? 1599 01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:10,639 Speaker 8: Thanks Mary? 1600 01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:14,160 Speaker 2: Maybe it was a big deal when it happened, and 1601 01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:16,360 Speaker 2: I think it Brownie and I have talked about it 1602 01:20:16,439 --> 01:20:19,760 Speaker 2: at length after the season. I think that was a 1603 01:20:19,920 --> 01:20:23,160 Speaker 2: huge difference maker for the end of the Bill's season. 1604 01:20:23,960 --> 01:20:27,240 Speaker 2: In the aftermath of what happened in Cincinnati. I think 1605 01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:31,360 Speaker 2: some guys couldn't get it out of their mind. I 1606 01:20:31,439 --> 01:20:34,320 Speaker 2: think it bothered them on the field in practice, in 1607 01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:37,280 Speaker 2: their day to day life, and to go back out 1608 01:20:37,360 --> 01:20:40,400 Speaker 2: there and being in a different stadium, different uniform, different team, 1609 01:20:40,439 --> 01:20:42,400 Speaker 2: different year, all of that, and Damar is standing over 1610 01:20:42,439 --> 01:20:45,080 Speaker 2: on the sidelines inactive, you know, just being on the team. 1611 01:20:46,439 --> 01:20:48,600 Speaker 2: There's a chance that some guys might think back to 1612 01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:50,400 Speaker 2: that and not be able and be distracted by it. 1613 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:54,080 Speaker 2: There's a chance of that. And as for the penalties, 1614 01:20:54,520 --> 01:20:58,639 Speaker 2: I agree. I think the officials it's their preseason two still. 1615 01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:00,400 Speaker 2: I mean they're going to be We saw in the 1616 01:21:00,560 --> 01:21:03,160 Speaker 2: Thursday night football game to start the entire season off. 1617 01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:08,000 Speaker 2: They couldn't they could not get it right with the 1618 01:21:08,120 --> 01:21:12,120 Speaker 2: left tackle of the Kansas City Chiefs. They couldn't get it. 1619 01:21:12,160 --> 01:21:12,639 Speaker 8: They couldn't. 1620 01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:15,840 Speaker 2: They couldn't see it when everybody else was looking at it. 1621 01:21:16,240 --> 01:21:19,920 Speaker 2: They couldn't see it. So hopefully that kind of situation 1622 01:21:20,120 --> 01:21:22,720 Speaker 2: doesn't happen to the to the officials in this game. 1623 01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:28,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, and it's it's an issue, and you hope it 1624 01:21:28,160 --> 01:21:31,280 Speaker 9: doesn't become one. For Buffalo's offensive line, you know, it 1625 01:21:31,400 --> 01:21:35,200 Speaker 9: is going to be ridiculously loud. They're gonna have to 1626 01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:38,320 Speaker 9: go to silent count. They're gonna have a rookie handling 1627 01:21:38,479 --> 01:21:41,120 Speaker 9: the trigger or the signal for the silent count, no 1628 01:21:41,280 --> 01:21:45,200 Speaker 9: Cyrus Torrance tonight, and it's going to be very difficult 1629 01:21:45,280 --> 01:21:47,280 Speaker 9: to hear. These guys have really got to be on 1630 01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:52,080 Speaker 9: it from the jump because you know, the first couple 1631 01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:54,080 Speaker 9: of series for the Bills, it is going to be 1632 01:21:54,320 --> 01:21:57,559 Speaker 9: deafening there. Tonight, they're going to be into this thing. 1633 01:21:58,200 --> 01:22:00,880 Speaker 9: So they're really gonna have to be on top of 1634 01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:04,479 Speaker 9: their execution to avoid false star penalties and the like. 1635 01:22:07,800 --> 01:22:09,439 Speaker 9: Let's get back to the phones. We're gonna go to 1636 01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:12,080 Speaker 9: Chris in Rochester next. I think has a similar thought. 1637 01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:12,880 Speaker 8: Go ahead, Chris. 1638 01:22:14,280 --> 01:22:14,400 Speaker 18: Hi. 1639 01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:17,160 Speaker 21: Yeah, yeah, it's the similar. 1640 01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:20,840 Speaker 11: But josh Alla also needs to shake off that preseason 1641 01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:22,519 Speaker 11: game he had against the Steelers. 1642 01:22:24,200 --> 01:22:25,760 Speaker 22: It wasn't a really good game for him. 1643 01:22:27,560 --> 01:22:30,519 Speaker 21: I know he didn't play that much, but he's still 1644 01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:35,120 Speaker 21: you know, shake shake them off and get back to 1645 01:22:35,439 --> 01:22:37,000 Speaker 21: playing how Josh plays. 1646 01:22:37,240 --> 01:22:39,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, Chris, you didn't. You should have watched the third 1647 01:22:39,600 --> 01:22:42,080 Speaker 2: preseason game against uh I don't know who it was. 1648 01:22:42,080 --> 01:22:44,400 Speaker 2: Who'd we play in the preseason against Chicago? Yeah, he 1649 01:22:44,400 --> 01:22:46,439 Speaker 2: should have seen. In the Chicago game, he looked pretty good, 1650 01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:47,600 Speaker 2: so I would say he's I. 1651 01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:49,439 Speaker 8: Don't think you look bad. In the Pittsburgh game, he 1652 01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:50,799 Speaker 8: was seven to ten passing. 1653 01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:53,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was all right. Josh is gonna be fine. 1654 01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:57,080 Speaker 2: Josh is not going to be the issue tonight. Josh 1655 01:22:57,200 --> 01:22:59,360 Speaker 2: gonna be fine and he you know, if he doesn't 1656 01:22:59,360 --> 01:23:03,360 Speaker 2: turn it over, Josh's gonna make some plays. He's gonna 1657 01:23:03,360 --> 01:23:07,760 Speaker 2: play like he plays. The second preseason game is irrelevant. 1658 01:23:09,320 --> 01:23:12,920 Speaker 2: I imagine Josh can't even remember three plays from that game, 1659 01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:16,640 Speaker 2: so as an eon ago, it seems right. Yeah, it 1660 01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:18,880 Speaker 2: was like three weeks ago. It's like it never happened. 1661 01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:24,439 Speaker 2: So I'm yes, Chris, You're right, Josh is an enormous 1662 01:23:24,479 --> 01:23:26,320 Speaker 2: part of what the Bills can or can't do tonight. 1663 01:23:27,800 --> 01:23:30,920 Speaker 2: But I don't think the Pittsburgh preseason game means anything. 1664 01:23:31,080 --> 01:23:35,360 Speaker 2: Ask the Steelers if it meant something yesterday, because I 1665 01:23:35,360 --> 01:23:37,680 Speaker 2: don't think it did. They got their heads handed to him, 1666 01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:39,559 Speaker 2: So we'll see. 1667 01:23:40,479 --> 01:23:44,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, all right, Back to the phones and to Ryan 1668 01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:45,360 Speaker 8: in Buffalo. What do you got for us? 1669 01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:48,400 Speaker 22: Ryan, how you guys doing. Thanks for taking my call. 1670 01:23:50,479 --> 01:23:52,760 Speaker 22: I wanted to say, Man, you know, I've been real 1671 01:23:52,920 --> 01:23:57,000 Speaker 22: nervous about this game, and I think that the yoacome 1672 01:23:57,040 --> 01:23:59,320 Speaker 22: of this game is kind of gonna set its tone, 1673 01:23:59,680 --> 01:24:02,200 Speaker 22: you know, for our season. If we go out there 1674 01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:06,759 Speaker 22: and we wallop the Jets, you know, with Aaron Rodgers 1675 01:24:06,880 --> 01:24:09,040 Speaker 22: at the home and all all the hype that they 1676 01:24:09,160 --> 01:24:11,280 Speaker 22: have going on in New York right now, it's really 1677 01:24:11,320 --> 01:24:13,560 Speaker 22: gonna show what kind of team we have. If we 1678 01:24:13,680 --> 01:24:15,560 Speaker 22: go out there and they run all over us, he 1679 01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:19,479 Speaker 22: throws all over us, and they destroy us, there's gonna 1680 01:24:19,479 --> 01:24:21,720 Speaker 22: be a lot of disheartened people, you know, a lot 1681 01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:25,840 Speaker 22: of disheartened Bills fans, and a lot of negativity coming 1682 01:24:25,920 --> 01:24:27,760 Speaker 22: our way. So I hope we really go in there 1683 01:24:27,760 --> 01:24:31,000 Speaker 22: and stop the run and really take it to him tonight. 1684 01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:33,560 Speaker 22: But I'm kind of nervous about the game. Thanks for 1685 01:24:33,640 --> 01:24:34,559 Speaker 22: taking my call, guys. 1686 01:24:35,320 --> 01:24:37,280 Speaker 2: Thanks Ryan. Yeah, thanks Ryan. Let me tell you them, 1687 01:24:37,320 --> 01:24:39,880 Speaker 2: I'm nervous too. It's a big game. Against a really 1688 01:24:39,920 --> 01:24:42,840 Speaker 2: good team, you always gotta you always gotta call it 1689 01:24:42,920 --> 01:24:46,280 Speaker 2: what it is. The Jets don't stink. They're good, and 1690 01:24:46,320 --> 01:24:48,320 Speaker 2: they're gonna be good this year, and I would I've 1691 01:24:48,400 --> 01:24:49,920 Speaker 2: told Brownie this off the year. I don't know if 1692 01:24:49,920 --> 01:24:51,720 Speaker 2: I've said it on the air or not. I think 1693 01:24:51,720 --> 01:24:53,840 Speaker 2: the Bills are gonna play the Jets three times this year, 1694 01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:57,160 Speaker 2: two times the regular season, like always, and I think 1695 01:24:57,160 --> 01:24:58,800 Speaker 2: you're gonna meet him again in the playoffs. I think 1696 01:24:58,840 --> 01:25:02,719 Speaker 2: both these clubs are headed. Don't overestimate and setting the tone. 1697 01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:05,760 Speaker 2: I get all that that's true for the fans, but 1698 01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:08,800 Speaker 2: for the team, it's just one game, win or lose, 1699 01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:11,160 Speaker 2: and certainly you're gonna have to evaluate it. So if 1700 01:25:11,200 --> 01:25:13,160 Speaker 2: you do look horror, if you look like the New 1701 01:25:13,240 --> 01:25:15,600 Speaker 2: York Giants did last night, yeah you're gonna have to 1702 01:25:15,640 --> 01:25:18,080 Speaker 2: do some quick soul searching. But you got another game 1703 01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:20,560 Speaker 2: coming up quick, so you're not gonna have time to 1704 01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:25,160 Speaker 2: really whine about this. Yeah, this is this game is 1705 01:25:25,360 --> 01:25:28,360 Speaker 2: no more important than any other game. It's important to 1706 01:25:28,560 --> 01:25:30,840 Speaker 2: us because it's a Monday night game and it kicks 1707 01:25:30,880 --> 01:25:33,400 Speaker 2: off the season, and you know, we got high expectations 1708 01:25:33,439 --> 01:25:36,479 Speaker 2: for our own team. Even though nobody else does. But 1709 01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:38,360 Speaker 2: don't put anything more into this than it is. If 1710 01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:41,360 Speaker 2: they beat them, even if they thump this team. Is 1711 01:25:41,520 --> 01:25:44,360 Speaker 2: just one game. Don't get too high on it. We 1712 01:25:44,479 --> 01:25:48,040 Speaker 2: got a long way to go. So take this game 1713 01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:51,760 Speaker 2: for what it is, an important division game against a 1714 01:25:51,960 --> 01:25:55,360 Speaker 2: really good team, a team that you should be able 1715 01:25:55,360 --> 01:25:59,160 Speaker 2: to go toe to toe with. So it's a great 1716 01:25:59,240 --> 01:26:01,360 Speaker 2: game and you should be nervous about it because they're good. 1717 01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:03,640 Speaker 2: They're good, no question, But. 1718 01:26:03,680 --> 01:26:05,599 Speaker 9: As Steve said, no matter the outcome, you still got 1719 01:26:05,640 --> 01:26:10,639 Speaker 9: sixteen more after this. And you know the Jets their 1720 01:26:10,720 --> 01:26:14,280 Speaker 9: next five after tonight. They're tough, man. They got to 1721 01:26:14,320 --> 01:26:17,040 Speaker 9: go to Dallas next week. Who just put a butt 1722 01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:18,200 Speaker 9: whooping on their next door name. 1723 01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:22,320 Speaker 2: Let's think about this, brownie, you're in a think about 1724 01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:24,680 Speaker 2: it if you're if you got this this stretch of 1725 01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,360 Speaker 2: games coming up, and you're the new and and you're 1726 01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:31,120 Speaker 2: the Jets, right, you're you got this stretch of games 1727 01:26:31,160 --> 01:26:32,679 Speaker 2: coming up, and let's face. 1728 01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:35,560 Speaker 8: It, Buffalo, dude, you got Buffalo, Dallas. 1729 01:26:35,400 --> 01:26:38,559 Speaker 2: New England, the Chiefs, and that BRONC goes as maybe 1730 01:26:38,600 --> 01:26:42,599 Speaker 2: a breather, and then you got Philly. You think about 1731 01:26:42,640 --> 01:26:45,640 Speaker 2: the Jets They're in a must win game against the 1732 01:26:45,720 --> 01:26:48,720 Speaker 2: three time AFC's champs right out of the gate. They 1733 01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:51,400 Speaker 2: got to win this game. With all the hype, with 1734 01:26:51,479 --> 01:26:53,280 Speaker 2: all the with all the x BA, they gotta win 1735 01:26:53,360 --> 01:26:57,800 Speaker 2: this game. I mean, I'm kind of overstating it because 1736 01:26:57,800 --> 01:26:59,800 Speaker 2: I really don't think they have to win this game. 1737 01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:01,840 Speaker 2: I need to do the Bills. These two teams are 1738 01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:04,280 Speaker 2: gonna win a ton of games. But man, the Jets 1739 01:27:04,520 --> 01:27:07,960 Speaker 2: think about it. They got they're kind of in this game. Wow, 1740 01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:09,720 Speaker 2: we really got to show up in this game. And 1741 01:27:09,800 --> 01:27:15,080 Speaker 2: it's against the Bills, who are absolutely contenders because they 1742 01:27:15,160 --> 01:27:20,519 Speaker 2: got the Cowboys who just hung forty on the Giants. 1743 01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:22,519 Speaker 8: And they got them on the road. They to go 1744 01:27:22,640 --> 01:27:25,639 Speaker 8: play in Dallas. Yeah, I mean the Jets. 1745 01:27:27,200 --> 01:27:29,719 Speaker 2: This is this is a bigger game in the big picture, 1746 01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:31,800 Speaker 2: probably as big a game as the Jets have too. 1747 01:27:31,920 --> 01:27:35,040 Speaker 2: And it's against the Bills. It's against a really good team, 1748 01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:37,080 Speaker 2: just like the Bills are playing a really good team. 1749 01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:39,040 Speaker 2: It's there's a lot in. 1750 01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:41,040 Speaker 8: This there is a lot. 1751 01:27:41,479 --> 01:27:42,960 Speaker 9: We have to take a break here, but more of 1752 01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:45,720 Speaker 9: your phone calls when we return.

Right back 1760 01:28:12,960 --> 01:28:17,639 Speaker 9: to the phones and to Ron in California. Let's pull 1761 01:28:17,680 --> 01:28:18,080 Speaker 9: them up here. 1762 01:28:18,160 --> 01:28:19,759 Speaker 8: What do you got for us? Round? You're all one Bill's. 1763 01:28:19,560 --> 01:28:27,439 Speaker 17: Lives before the pregame show. I want to say last 1764 01:28:27,520 --> 01:28:30,519 Speaker 17: year I had high hopes and I was never let down. 1765 01:28:30,640 --> 01:28:33,519 Speaker 17: It was the best year I could have ever. 1766 01:28:33,960 --> 01:28:34,799 Speaker 18: Enjoyed the Bills. 1767 01:28:35,200 --> 01:28:40,759 Speaker 17: This year, what I'm looking for is not individual talent, 1768 01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:43,960 Speaker 17: soor to speak. It's not a one man show and 1769 01:28:44,040 --> 01:28:47,800 Speaker 17: it never will be. And what I realized was if 1770 01:28:47,840 --> 01:28:51,599 Speaker 17: we play as a team, you know, game tackle on defense, 1771 01:28:52,560 --> 01:28:54,760 Speaker 17: that's going to be the key. We talked about the 1772 01:28:54,880 --> 01:28:58,200 Speaker 17: offense of what Josh Allen everybody has to do, and 1773 01:28:58,600 --> 01:29:01,599 Speaker 17: I don't believe that. I think if they just play 1774 01:29:01,680 --> 01:29:05,640 Speaker 17: their games the way you know they they have the 1775 01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:09,400 Speaker 17: faith and what they're capable of doing, and with a 1776 01:29:09,640 --> 01:29:13,640 Speaker 17: great game tackling, and we play as a team on 1777 01:29:13,800 --> 01:29:16,800 Speaker 17: offense and defense, I am not worried at all. Even 1778 01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:20,400 Speaker 17: if we're down fourteen to twenty one points, I feel 1779 01:29:20,439 --> 01:29:26,840 Speaker 17: we can come back and win if we just play 1780 01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:32,320 Speaker 17: penalty free and try to play a consistent game with 1781 01:29:32,479 --> 01:29:34,360 Speaker 17: the whole team, not just individuals. 1782 01:29:34,800 --> 01:29:37,960 Speaker 8: Yep, well, thanks Ron for sharing that, Ron, thank you. 1783 01:29:38,720 --> 01:29:40,840 Speaker 2: I got news for you. Though we're down twenty one points, 1784 01:29:40,920 --> 01:29:44,280 Speaker 2: gang tackling isn't gonna help us get back in it. 1785 01:29:45,479 --> 01:29:48,320 Speaker 2: But yes, I get it. You're right. It's team sport. 1786 01:29:48,520 --> 01:29:54,520 Speaker 2: It's the quintessential team sport. It's it's it's an absolute. 1787 01:29:56,520 --> 01:29:59,519 Speaker 2: It is the team sport. That's why we watch it. 1788 01:29:59,600 --> 01:30:05,960 Speaker 2: It's spelling. And you're right, having belief in what you're 1789 01:30:06,000 --> 01:30:07,840 Speaker 2: doing and having faith in what you're doing, all of 1790 01:30:07,880 --> 01:30:10,479 Speaker 2: that is in there. It's all important at this level. 1791 01:30:10,640 --> 01:30:15,680 Speaker 2: And but uh yeah, it's gonna They're gonna have to 1792 01:30:15,720 --> 01:30:17,600 Speaker 2: play well. I don't even know what to tell you 1793 01:30:17,760 --> 01:30:20,200 Speaker 2: about all the stuff you said, but I know last 1794 01:30:20,280 --> 01:30:22,920 Speaker 2: year you had high hopes, you weren't disappointed. You didn't 1795 01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:27,200 Speaker 2: say what your hopes were this year, and you're the 1796 01:30:27,360 --> 01:30:30,200 Speaker 2: and I'll say this, you're the first guy who's said 1797 01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:31,840 Speaker 2: gang tackling is going to be the key to the 1798 01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:32,559 Speaker 2: entire season. 1799 01:30:33,720 --> 01:30:34,280 Speaker 8: So there you go. 1800 01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:38,200 Speaker 2: Way to go, Ron, Way to go. It is a 1801 01:30:38,280 --> 01:30:40,000 Speaker 2: part of football. I like where your heads are. 1802 01:30:41,160 --> 01:30:43,680 Speaker 8: All right, let's go to Brian in Springfield. Next. What 1803 01:30:43,720 --> 01:30:44,559 Speaker 8: do you got for us? Brian? 1804 01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:46,360 Speaker 10: Uh? 1805 01:30:46,600 --> 01:30:48,840 Speaker 18: Hey, whatever that last guy was talking about. 1806 01:30:48,880 --> 01:30:51,160 Speaker 23: I mean, every single season's a disappointment if you don't 1807 01:30:51,160 --> 01:30:53,120 Speaker 23: win a Super Bowl. That's that's why we're in this game. 1808 01:30:53,240 --> 01:30:55,200 Speaker 17: But I'm almost gonna agree with him. 1809 01:30:55,200 --> 01:30:59,759 Speaker 23: My thought was, I'm most interested in seeing how Sean 1810 01:30:59,840 --> 01:31:03,519 Speaker 23: mc dermott. I hope he's a more aggressive play caller 1811 01:31:04,080 --> 01:31:05,519 Speaker 23: this year than in years past. 1812 01:31:05,560 --> 01:31:06,160 Speaker 17: Although we've had. 1813 01:31:06,120 --> 01:31:08,920 Speaker 18: Great defenses, I know that, but I think that you 1814 01:31:09,120 --> 01:31:10,479 Speaker 18: we we can't sit back and let. 1815 01:31:10,400 --> 01:31:13,040 Speaker 23: Aaron Rodgers just survey the field and make his place. 1816 01:31:13,560 --> 01:31:15,200 Speaker 23: I want to see and I think it's going to 1817 01:31:15,280 --> 01:31:19,240 Speaker 23: dictate our season how Sean McDermott calls his defense. 1818 01:31:21,080 --> 01:31:21,960 Speaker 8: Yeah, that's right. 1819 01:31:22,040 --> 01:31:24,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's just a lot of people are valid. 1820 01:31:25,479 --> 01:31:26,800 Speaker 8: Oh sorry, I didn't mean to cut you off. 1821 01:31:26,880 --> 01:31:27,040 Speaker 9: Ryan. 1822 01:31:27,080 --> 01:31:29,040 Speaker 2: We are tight on time, though a lot of people 1823 01:31:29,120 --> 01:31:32,760 Speaker 2: are really excited to see Brownie and I are among them. 1824 01:31:33,720 --> 01:31:34,840 Speaker 8: We have not seen it yet. 1825 01:31:35,120 --> 01:31:38,280 Speaker 2: We've seen in the preseason, but even in the preseason, 1826 01:31:38,479 --> 01:31:40,320 Speaker 2: you know he had one game where he wasn't calling 1827 01:31:40,400 --> 01:31:42,799 Speaker 2: it and he's not you know, he's not shown anything 1828 01:31:42,840 --> 01:31:45,680 Speaker 2: in the preseason, so I don't know what we're going 1829 01:31:45,760 --> 01:31:48,040 Speaker 2: to see. I think it's I think it's really going 1830 01:31:48,120 --> 01:31:50,519 Speaker 2: to be entertaining and intriguing to watch. 1831 01:31:52,680 --> 01:31:57,400 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think there are there is speculation that we 1832 01:31:57,520 --> 01:32:00,760 Speaker 9: will see some more exotic looks from coach McDermott. But 1833 01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:06,000 Speaker 9: at his core, he likes to allow his players to 1834 01:32:06,200 --> 01:32:10,320 Speaker 9: play hard and fast, and if you gob up the 1835 01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:16,000 Speaker 9: works with intricate scheme and a lot of a large 1836 01:32:16,080 --> 01:32:19,280 Speaker 9: number of plays in a given game plan, you sometimes 1837 01:32:19,400 --> 01:32:23,040 Speaker 9: inhibit the physical talents of your own players. So I'm 1838 01:32:23,080 --> 01:32:25,320 Speaker 9: going to be very interested to see how he strikes 1839 01:32:25,400 --> 01:32:28,839 Speaker 9: that balance for a team that has for a defense 1840 01:32:28,880 --> 01:32:31,479 Speaker 9: that has played very simple for a long time but 1841 01:32:31,640 --> 01:32:36,720 Speaker 9: been very successful doing it. Knowing he wants more splash 1842 01:32:36,840 --> 01:32:40,639 Speaker 9: plays from this defense for more sacks, turnovers really haven't 1843 01:32:40,680 --> 01:32:42,519 Speaker 9: been a problem getting them. The Bills had twenty seven 1844 01:32:42,640 --> 01:32:45,200 Speaker 9: last year. The problem was they had twenty seven turnovers. 1845 01:32:46,840 --> 01:32:48,719 Speaker 9: But I know he wants to increase that sack total, 1846 01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:51,679 Speaker 9: so I'm very curious to see how he enters tonight's 1847 01:32:51,720 --> 01:32:54,240 Speaker 9: game let's squeeze in Justin and Amherst here before the break. 1848 01:32:54,280 --> 01:32:55,160 Speaker 8: What do you got for is Justin? 1849 01:32:57,000 --> 01:33:00,519 Speaker 21: Hi, guys, I agree with you on the defense. I 1850 01:33:00,560 --> 01:33:04,120 Speaker 21: want to see what McDermott does keeping them. I think 1851 01:33:04,240 --> 01:33:06,360 Speaker 21: they thrive in Nickel, So I want to see how 1852 01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:08,360 Speaker 21: if he can get us to a point where third 1853 01:33:08,400 --> 01:33:10,360 Speaker 21: and five and then Nicholas can just take over. But 1854 01:33:10,800 --> 01:33:13,919 Speaker 21: my point was on Dorsey in the offense today. I'm 1855 01:33:13,960 --> 01:33:18,439 Speaker 21: waiting to see what he does if soft Gardener shadows digs. 1856 01:33:19,280 --> 01:33:22,400 Speaker 21: Do we staff digs behind Tim Caid and work Kincaid 1857 01:33:22,520 --> 01:33:26,479 Speaker 21: and Cook into that open area where where Sauce is vacating. 1858 01:33:26,560 --> 01:33:29,040 Speaker 21: I think that's going to be if he's following dudes around, 1859 01:33:29,040 --> 01:33:30,400 Speaker 21: I think that's what we gotta do, is we gotta 1860 01:33:30,680 --> 01:33:34,360 Speaker 21: we gotta force force them to cover the space vacated 1861 01:33:34,439 --> 01:33:37,519 Speaker 21: by soft Gardener to get to get them to start 1862 01:33:37,640 --> 01:33:40,800 Speaker 21: keeping him off digs. Maybe in the second half, that's 1863 01:33:40,840 --> 01:33:41,120 Speaker 21: my point. 1864 01:33:41,120 --> 01:33:41,960 Speaker 18: I'll listen to the earth. 1865 01:33:42,200 --> 01:33:44,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. Interesting, I heard, and I think I heard this 1866 01:33:44,560 --> 01:33:49,720 Speaker 2: from a jet guy that Sauce, Gardener and the other 1867 01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:52,000 Speaker 2: corner they don't follow guys around. 1868 01:33:53,120 --> 01:33:53,679 Speaker 8: No, they don't. 1869 01:33:53,720 --> 01:33:55,679 Speaker 9: As a matter of fact, the Jets played seventy five 1870 01:33:56,200 --> 01:33:56,960 Speaker 9: zone last year. 1871 01:33:57,080 --> 01:34:00,840 Speaker 2: Right our zone defense, Sauce plays one, the other corner 1872 01:34:00,880 --> 01:34:02,720 Speaker 2: plays the other no matter where they are down, and 1873 01:34:03,160 --> 01:34:05,120 Speaker 2: Sauce is always the right and the other guy's always 1874 01:34:05,160 --> 01:34:06,439 Speaker 2: the left or vice or I don't know which one 1875 01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:08,880 Speaker 2: it is. But Sauce doesn't follow anybody around. 1876 01:34:09,360 --> 01:34:11,880 Speaker 8: So Sauce on the left, DJ Reid on the right. 1877 01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:16,360 Speaker 2: So when they do that, you know, you Ken Dorsey 1878 01:34:16,439 --> 01:34:18,800 Speaker 2: is gonna have the freedom to dictate who's on him 1879 01:34:18,960 --> 01:34:22,679 Speaker 2: if he wants to. That's how it works, So it'll 1880 01:34:22,720 --> 01:34:25,960 Speaker 2: be interesting to see how that goes. But if you 1881 01:34:26,080 --> 01:34:27,400 Speaker 2: know that to be true, and if you think it's 1882 01:34:27,439 --> 01:34:30,760 Speaker 2: going to be true again, you have a plan for 1883 01:34:31,080 --> 01:34:33,040 Speaker 2: knowing where Sauce Gardner's going to be in any way 1884 01:34:33,120 --> 01:34:37,960 Speaker 2: any given personnel form and formation, any personnel combination and formation. 1885 01:34:38,840 --> 01:34:41,800 Speaker 2: So that's a plus if you know that to be 1886 01:34:41,960 --> 01:34:44,280 Speaker 2: But they knew that last year as well, so we'll see. 1887 01:34:45,479 --> 01:34:46,960 Speaker 8: Yeah, Bills or bills. 1888 01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:49,479 Speaker 9: The Jets defense is not a big blitz defense because 1889 01:34:49,520 --> 01:34:52,080 Speaker 9: they can get home with four and they're not a 1890 01:34:52,120 --> 01:34:56,040 Speaker 9: big man to man defense seventy five percent zone defense 1891 01:34:56,160 --> 01:34:58,680 Speaker 9: last year. They don't do matchup a lot, and they 1892 01:34:58,800 --> 01:35:01,760 Speaker 9: don't do a lot of following around a team's number 1893 01:35:01,800 --> 01:35:04,320 Speaker 9: one receiver. Gotta take a break here because when we 1894 01:35:04,439 --> 01:35:07,599 Speaker 9: come back, my broadcast partner on the radio broadcast tonight 1895 01:35:07,680 --> 01:35:11,759 Speaker 9: will be joining us, Eric Wood, former Bills offensive aligneman, 1896 01:35:12,200 --> 01:35:14,599 Speaker 9: here to talk some x'es and o's and we'll get 1897 01:35:14,600 --> 01:35:16,960 Speaker 9: into some line play as well as that is a 1898 01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:19,439 Speaker 9: big matchup in this thing tonight. Next here, I want 1899 01:35:19,439 --> 01:35:20,120 Speaker 9: to Bill's Live. 1900 01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:57,000 Speaker 1: Stay too, This One Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health. 1901 01:35:58,960 --> 01:36:01,560 Speaker 9: All right, back again for hour number three on a 1902 01:36:01,720 --> 01:36:06,120 Speaker 9: game day edition of One Bill's Live. And joining us 1903 01:36:06,200 --> 01:36:10,400 Speaker 9: now is my radio broadcast partner for the radio call 1904 01:36:10,600 --> 01:36:13,920 Speaker 9: of the game tonight at MetLife Stadium. It is Eric Wood, 1905 01:36:14,000 --> 01:36:18,120 Speaker 9: former Bills offensive lineman. And Eric there's been a lot 1906 01:36:18,160 --> 01:36:20,200 Speaker 9: of talk and a lot of consternation here on the 1907 01:36:20,240 --> 01:36:23,679 Speaker 9: show today about the matchup between the Bills O line 1908 01:36:23,800 --> 01:36:28,320 Speaker 9: and this vaunted Jets defensive front. Where do you kind 1909 01:36:28,360 --> 01:36:31,000 Speaker 9: of come down on this and what is this offensive 1910 01:36:31,040 --> 01:36:32,639 Speaker 9: line going to have to do and how much help 1911 01:36:32,720 --> 01:36:34,880 Speaker 9: might they need to kind of get the job done? 1912 01:36:35,920 --> 01:36:39,080 Speaker 24: Yeah, I mean, despite all of the negativity after the 1913 01:36:39,120 --> 01:36:41,720 Speaker 24: Pittsburgh loss in the preseason I am not down on 1914 01:36:41,800 --> 01:36:42,720 Speaker 24: this offensive line. 1915 01:36:42,720 --> 01:36:45,519 Speaker 5: I think they upgrade at both guard spots this year. 1916 01:36:45,680 --> 01:36:47,880 Speaker 24: Mitch Morse had the best one of the best seasons, 1917 01:36:47,920 --> 01:36:49,920 Speaker 24: if not his best season of his career last year. 1918 01:36:50,200 --> 01:36:52,800 Speaker 24: You assume heading into the season healthy that he'll have 1919 01:36:52,840 --> 01:36:56,880 Speaker 24: another great season. Dion Dawkins has been your franchise left 1920 01:36:56,920 --> 01:36:59,439 Speaker 24: tackle for a while, and Spencer Brown is coming off 1921 01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:03,600 Speaker 24: of his first offseason where he's gotten to not have 1922 01:37:03,760 --> 01:37:06,360 Speaker 24: to rehab he can actually train. So I am actually 1923 01:37:06,439 --> 01:37:09,760 Speaker 24: excited about the offensive line for this season, for this 1924 01:37:09,880 --> 01:37:12,160 Speaker 24: twenty twenty three Bills team. Now, they are going up 1925 01:37:12,160 --> 01:37:15,680 Speaker 24: against a very good defensive front with the Jets. They 1926 01:37:15,720 --> 01:37:18,559 Speaker 24: have great edge rushers and the star is Quinn Williams. 1927 01:37:18,640 --> 01:37:21,519 Speaker 24: And similar to the game plan that we saw against 1928 01:37:21,560 --> 01:37:24,639 Speaker 24: the Rams last year, in the opener, you will see 1929 01:37:25,280 --> 01:37:28,640 Speaker 24: multiple bodies eyes on Quinn Williams at all times. I 1930 01:37:28,760 --> 01:37:31,000 Speaker 24: remember back in the day when we played against Aaron Donald. 1931 01:37:31,080 --> 01:37:33,840 Speaker 24: Now this was different offensive snaps just to get in 1932 01:37:33,920 --> 01:37:35,360 Speaker 24: his head every time we walked up to the line 1933 01:37:35,400 --> 01:37:37,400 Speaker 24: of scrimmage, even before I pointed out to Mike linebacker, 1934 01:37:37,560 --> 01:37:40,679 Speaker 24: just pointed out Aaron Donald said, there's ninety nine we're 1935 01:37:40,680 --> 01:37:43,280 Speaker 24: gonna know where he is on every single play. And 1936 01:37:43,439 --> 01:37:45,880 Speaker 24: I honestly think Quentin Williams is about to that point 1937 01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:51,599 Speaker 24: of his career right now, extremely disruptive inside, and it's 1938 01:37:51,600 --> 01:37:54,960 Speaker 24: a quarterback's worst nightmare to have that pressure right up 1939 01:37:55,000 --> 01:37:57,920 Speaker 24: the middle. And so it's gonna look like center guard 1940 01:37:58,040 --> 01:37:59,320 Speaker 24: commodations blocking him. 1941 01:37:59,320 --> 01:37:59,679 Speaker 5: At times. 1942 01:37:59,720 --> 01:38:01,560 Speaker 24: It might be the tackle in the guard and you 1943 01:38:01,720 --> 01:38:03,640 Speaker 24: leave a tight end and a running back on an 1944 01:38:03,760 --> 01:38:06,800 Speaker 24: edge rusher. You show him that much respect, but you 1945 01:38:06,880 --> 01:38:08,960 Speaker 24: try and take him out of the game early on 1946 01:38:09,560 --> 01:38:11,880 Speaker 24: to where he feels like he's getting double teamed and 1947 01:38:11,960 --> 01:38:14,200 Speaker 24: he's going to get double teamed the entire game. 1948 01:38:14,320 --> 01:38:16,360 Speaker 5: And then early on in the game, when. 1949 01:38:16,240 --> 01:38:19,080 Speaker 24: The emotions are high, call pass plays where the ball 1950 01:38:19,200 --> 01:38:21,680 Speaker 24: is gonna come out of Josh's hands quickly. Maybe you 1951 01:38:21,800 --> 01:38:23,519 Speaker 24: run it a few more times than you would early 1952 01:38:23,600 --> 01:38:25,920 Speaker 24: in a game, just so he doesn't feel like, Hey, 1953 01:38:26,000 --> 01:38:27,519 Speaker 24: this is a game where I'm gonna go put up 1954 01:38:27,560 --> 01:38:28,320 Speaker 24: four sacks night. 1955 01:38:28,520 --> 01:38:30,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, speak to that emotion of the early part of 1956 01:38:30,240 --> 01:38:32,120 Speaker 2: the game. I've been through these games like this and 1957 01:38:32,720 --> 01:38:35,160 Speaker 2: you run about two you know you've got display. You 1958 01:38:35,200 --> 01:38:37,840 Speaker 2: go through training camp, you train in the offseason, you 1959 01:38:37,920 --> 01:38:40,439 Speaker 2: could you know you could do a You're in great shape, 1960 01:38:41,200 --> 01:38:43,280 Speaker 2: but like the first three plays of the game, you 1961 01:38:43,439 --> 01:38:47,280 Speaker 2: feel like you can't even breathe right, You're adrenaline just 1962 01:38:47,600 --> 01:38:50,760 Speaker 2: absolutely drains every ounce of energy. Can speak to that 1963 01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:54,479 Speaker 2: phenomenon when you're adrenaline kicks in and man, you just 1964 01:38:54,560 --> 01:38:57,600 Speaker 2: feel like you can't get there isn't enough air on 1965 01:38:57,680 --> 01:38:59,240 Speaker 2: the planet to fill your lungs. 1966 01:39:00,640 --> 01:39:03,400 Speaker 5: I'm glad you said that, Steve, because this is something 1967 01:39:03,479 --> 01:39:03,880 Speaker 5: that you know. 1968 01:39:03,920 --> 01:39:06,160 Speaker 24: I played nine years of the NFL where each and 1969 01:39:06,240 --> 01:39:08,720 Speaker 24: every season, you know, at first it hits you at 1970 01:39:08,760 --> 01:39:10,519 Speaker 24: one point when you go into a preseason game and 1971 01:39:10,560 --> 01:39:12,240 Speaker 24: you think, Wow, I'm not in good enough shape to 1972 01:39:12,280 --> 01:39:15,720 Speaker 24: start the season. And then that first wave of emotions. 1973 01:39:15,800 --> 01:39:19,160 Speaker 24: It's that first pregame talk that's getting everyone going and 1974 01:39:19,200 --> 01:39:20,920 Speaker 24: everyone's hooting and holler, and then you run out on 1975 01:39:20,960 --> 01:39:22,439 Speaker 24: the field. There's so much emotion that you get in 1976 01:39:22,520 --> 01:39:24,560 Speaker 24: that first series and yet you feel like, Okay, I 1977 01:39:24,640 --> 01:39:27,280 Speaker 24: need to dial it back a little bit here, and 1978 01:39:27,960 --> 01:39:31,080 Speaker 24: the emotion settles in. I remember we played in Kansas 1979 01:39:31,160 --> 01:39:33,679 Speaker 24: City on the ten year anniversary of nine to eleven, 1980 01:39:34,160 --> 01:39:36,360 Speaker 24: and that was a game with a ton of emotion 1981 01:39:36,600 --> 01:39:39,560 Speaker 24: pregame and that's actually a game that we crushed the 1982 01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:43,400 Speaker 24: Chiefs in an arrowhead, and there was some mistakes early 1983 01:39:43,479 --> 01:39:46,200 Speaker 24: on in that game. I believe the Chiefs fumble a kickoff. 1984 01:39:46,600 --> 01:39:49,519 Speaker 24: Me and Fitz had one of our only fumbled snaps 1985 01:39:49,560 --> 01:39:49,920 Speaker 24: of our career. 1986 01:39:50,000 --> 01:39:51,519 Speaker 5: Luckily we recovered it. 1987 01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:54,560 Speaker 24: But we batched a snap early in that game, and 1988 01:39:55,040 --> 01:39:57,640 Speaker 24: luckily we were on kind of the great end of 1989 01:39:58,000 --> 01:40:00,160 Speaker 24: the ball bouncing our way early in that game. As 1990 01:40:00,160 --> 01:40:01,960 Speaker 24: there was a bunch of miscues we saw in the 1991 01:40:02,000 --> 01:40:04,679 Speaker 24: game last night. You see all the nine to eleven 1992 01:40:04,720 --> 01:40:07,760 Speaker 24: festivities happening before the game, but then the Giants come out, 1993 01:40:08,120 --> 01:40:11,040 Speaker 24: drive down the field, blocked field goal picks six, and 1994 01:40:11,160 --> 01:40:14,160 Speaker 24: then when that momentum starts going, it's tough to overturn. 1995 01:40:14,439 --> 01:40:17,400 Speaker 24: And then an NFL football game. And so that said, 1996 01:40:17,479 --> 01:40:19,600 Speaker 24: these guys just got to manage the emotion. And it 1997 01:40:19,680 --> 01:40:22,160 Speaker 24: helps to have as veteran of a team as the 1998 01:40:22,240 --> 01:40:25,400 Speaker 24: Bills have, guys that have been in big moments, big stages. 1999 01:40:25,720 --> 01:40:29,479 Speaker 24: Josh has performed incredibly throughout his career on Monday Night 2000 01:40:29,560 --> 01:40:32,479 Speaker 24: Football and openers, where he started the game. I believe 2001 01:40:32,560 --> 01:40:36,280 Speaker 24: his touchdown interception ratio is something like ten to four 2002 01:40:36,560 --> 01:40:39,519 Speaker 24: and He's put up good numbers in those games as well, 2003 01:40:39,560 --> 01:40:42,920 Speaker 24: So Josh Allen's used to playing well in big games. 2004 01:40:43,320 --> 01:40:46,479 Speaker 24: And hopefully you just keep the emotions in check tonight, 2005 01:40:46,560 --> 01:40:50,639 Speaker 24: because not only is this your opener of the season 2006 01:40:50,720 --> 01:40:55,520 Speaker 24: divisional opponent, the Jets have caught all of the offseason 2007 01:40:55,640 --> 01:40:58,200 Speaker 24: attention and there's been just so much build up to 2008 01:40:58,360 --> 01:40:58,720 Speaker 24: this game. 2009 01:41:00,439 --> 01:41:00,599 Speaker 8: Eric. 2010 01:41:00,680 --> 01:41:03,040 Speaker 9: We know that Osiris Torrance is going to start at 2011 01:41:03,120 --> 01:41:06,000 Speaker 9: right guard as a rookie right out of the shoot 2012 01:41:06,479 --> 01:41:08,919 Speaker 9: and that's great from a development perspective. 2013 01:41:08,960 --> 01:41:10,280 Speaker 8: They obviously have faith in him. 2014 01:41:10,280 --> 01:41:13,439 Speaker 9: What does it say that he is also the signal 2015 01:41:13,560 --> 01:41:17,160 Speaker 9: man for the silent count go walking into an atmosphere 2016 01:41:17,280 --> 01:41:17,840 Speaker 9: like this tonight. 2017 01:41:17,920 --> 01:41:19,880 Speaker 8: How much does that speak to the trust they have 2018 01:41:20,040 --> 01:41:20,559 Speaker 8: in this kid. 2019 01:41:22,439 --> 01:41:26,240 Speaker 24: Yeah, it'd be different if they said we're gonna have 2020 01:41:26,360 --> 01:41:28,479 Speaker 24: you point out the mic each play, or we're gonna 2021 01:41:28,520 --> 01:41:31,519 Speaker 24: have you set the offensive schemes. You know, he's kind 2022 01:41:31,560 --> 01:41:34,360 Speaker 24: of signaling that everyone's set and ready, and then it's 2023 01:41:34,400 --> 01:41:37,000 Speaker 24: on Mitch Morrison. You know, he's looking back to Josh 2024 01:41:37,040 --> 01:41:39,880 Speaker 24: for that signal. That being said, if he goes out 2025 01:41:39,960 --> 01:41:43,400 Speaker 24: and he's down his leg, it's gonna have bad problems 2026 01:41:43,439 --> 01:41:45,240 Speaker 24: for the Bills and they know that's not gonna happen 2027 01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:47,520 Speaker 24: based upon giving him that responsibility. 2028 01:41:47,640 --> 01:41:49,519 Speaker 5: Generally, it is your right guard. I don't know why 2029 01:41:49,560 --> 01:41:51,639 Speaker 5: it's always the right guard, but generally it is your 2030 01:41:51,720 --> 01:41:56,560 Speaker 5: right guard. And so, uh, you know, it does it. 2031 01:41:57,080 --> 01:41:59,559 Speaker 24: I would say this, it's a bigger deal that they're 2032 01:41:59,600 --> 01:42:01,960 Speaker 24: rolling in of the season with a rookie start at 2033 01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:05,160 Speaker 24: Reich guard, just knowing how hesitant Sean McDermott and his 2034 01:42:05,200 --> 01:42:07,280 Speaker 24: staff have been in playing rookies early on. 2035 01:42:07,960 --> 01:42:10,479 Speaker 5: To me, that's the biggest thing here. 2036 01:42:11,160 --> 01:42:13,960 Speaker 24: Osiris Storrens was able to come in earn a starting job, 2037 01:42:14,080 --> 01:42:16,320 Speaker 24: Dalton kin Kate's being able to come in earn a 2038 01:42:16,400 --> 01:42:19,280 Speaker 24: starting job. You know, is that one or two tight end? 2039 01:42:19,840 --> 01:42:22,240 Speaker 24: And I mean the fact that this is an offense 2040 01:42:22,560 --> 01:42:25,120 Speaker 24: that was as explosive as anybody over the last three years, 2041 01:42:25,400 --> 01:42:28,519 Speaker 24: scored the most points in the entire NFL, and now 2042 01:42:28,560 --> 01:42:30,120 Speaker 24: they have two rookie starters. 2043 01:42:30,800 --> 01:42:31,840 Speaker 5: To me, that's a big deal. 2044 01:42:32,400 --> 01:42:34,720 Speaker 8: Yeah, And it is a big deal. 2045 01:42:34,760 --> 01:42:37,320 Speaker 2: And I got to ask you this too about the Bills, 2046 01:42:37,439 --> 01:42:39,280 Speaker 2: not just the Bills offensive line, but now the Jet 2047 01:42:39,360 --> 01:42:43,519 Speaker 2: offensive line. Makai Becton, who is about as new as 2048 01:42:43,560 --> 01:42:45,679 Speaker 2: you can be as a third or fourth year player, 2049 01:42:46,760 --> 01:42:49,120 Speaker 2: and then you've got as old as you can be. 2050 01:42:49,200 --> 01:42:51,280 Speaker 2: And Dwayne Brown on the other side, who is gutting 2051 01:42:51,320 --> 01:42:53,360 Speaker 2: it out and just you can tip your hat to 2052 01:42:53,400 --> 01:42:57,240 Speaker 2: the guy. He's a wily old war horse who's still 2053 01:42:57,320 --> 01:43:00,360 Speaker 2: hanging in there. But there's some question marks on the edge. 2054 01:43:00,400 --> 01:43:03,120 Speaker 2: One mostly about the durability and effectiveness of a sixteen 2055 01:43:03,200 --> 01:43:05,719 Speaker 2: year old left tackle, a sixteen year veteran left tackle, 2056 01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:09,960 Speaker 2: and Makai Beckton who has yet to really impress anybody 2057 01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:10,800 Speaker 2: with any of his play. 2058 01:43:12,360 --> 01:43:15,759 Speaker 24: Yeah, mkayle honestly looked the best kind of that first 2059 01:43:15,880 --> 01:43:19,200 Speaker 24: maybe stretch of his career early on, and then you 2060 01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:22,600 Speaker 24: know he had some weight issues, injury issues that compounded 2061 01:43:22,640 --> 01:43:25,479 Speaker 24: the weight issues, or the weight issues compounded the injury issues, 2062 01:43:25,720 --> 01:43:27,880 Speaker 24: however whatever came first there. 2063 01:43:29,120 --> 01:43:31,000 Speaker 5: But yeah, they have. 2064 01:43:31,160 --> 01:43:33,400 Speaker 24: Issues at tackle. And that goes without saying. We all 2065 01:43:33,439 --> 01:43:36,599 Speaker 24: saw the Robert solid speech from training camp. He said 2066 01:43:36,640 --> 01:43:39,519 Speaker 24: it himself and didn't have it get edited out through 2067 01:43:39,560 --> 01:43:41,960 Speaker 24: the process either, saying hey, don't put that out there. 2068 01:43:42,000 --> 01:43:43,800 Speaker 24: He wanted to call out of his offensive line. So 2069 01:43:44,040 --> 01:43:46,160 Speaker 24: he understands that there are some issues up there. They 2070 01:43:46,200 --> 01:43:49,280 Speaker 24: bring in Lincoln Tomlinson, he hasn't played up to expectations. 2071 01:43:49,280 --> 01:43:52,680 Speaker 24: Elijah Arrah Tucker very talented, he's been injured and has 2072 01:43:52,760 --> 01:43:55,799 Speaker 24: missed a ton of time. And then there Connor McGovern 2073 01:43:56,240 --> 01:43:58,479 Speaker 24: is a guy that they've looked to move on from before, 2074 01:43:58,600 --> 01:44:02,599 Speaker 24: so they recognize that they have issues up front as well. 2075 01:44:02,880 --> 01:44:05,519 Speaker 24: The Bills are without Von Miller in this game, but 2076 01:44:05,720 --> 01:44:08,960 Speaker 24: you have the three first rounders starting in this game. 2077 01:44:09,040 --> 01:44:11,320 Speaker 24: You have a top ten pick that's been rewarded with 2078 01:44:11,520 --> 01:44:14,280 Speaker 24: a long term contract in at Oliver. He's the guy 2079 01:44:14,360 --> 01:44:15,880 Speaker 24: that I look to on Monday Night Football. 2080 01:44:16,080 --> 01:44:19,639 Speaker 5: That's a guy tonight that needs to affect Rogers from 2081 01:44:19,680 --> 01:44:20,360 Speaker 5: the inside out. 2082 01:44:21,880 --> 01:44:24,160 Speaker 8: I think Eric and I talked to Steve about this 2083 01:44:24,320 --> 01:44:24,840 Speaker 8: last week. 2084 01:44:25,840 --> 01:44:28,800 Speaker 9: One of the most overlooked position groups on this roster 2085 01:44:28,960 --> 01:44:33,840 Speaker 9: that has appreciably improved in terms of talent, I think 2086 01:44:33,920 --> 01:44:36,839 Speaker 9: is the running back position, not only because you're elevating 2087 01:44:36,960 --> 01:44:42,320 Speaker 9: James Cook to a quote unquote feature role, but Damien 2088 01:44:42,439 --> 01:44:45,439 Speaker 9: Harris and Latavius Murray, who I think has found the 2089 01:44:45,479 --> 01:44:48,719 Speaker 9: fountain of youth at age thirty three. Those two guys' 2090 01:44:48,760 --> 01:44:52,880 Speaker 9: ability to run between the tackles effectively combine with the 2091 01:44:52,960 --> 01:44:56,800 Speaker 9: guard investment that you already mentioned. I think it's being 2092 01:44:56,920 --> 01:45:00,720 Speaker 9: largely overlooked how much the running back position grew has 2093 01:45:00,800 --> 01:45:04,480 Speaker 9: improved from a talent and proven production perspective. 2094 01:45:05,840 --> 01:45:08,720 Speaker 24: Yeah, and I feel like, even though I believe they 2095 01:45:08,800 --> 01:45:12,200 Speaker 24: have improved in talent, and I'm very excited for James Cook, 2096 01:45:12,560 --> 01:45:15,599 Speaker 24: you have conflicting styles this year as well. Last year 2097 01:45:15,920 --> 01:45:19,240 Speaker 24: with Devin Singletary and James Cook, you had very similar styles, 2098 01:45:19,280 --> 01:45:22,160 Speaker 24: although they're very different players at times, and James Cook's 2099 01:45:22,160 --> 01:45:24,160 Speaker 24: got a little bit more breakaway speed. It was the 2100 01:45:24,200 --> 01:45:26,519 Speaker 24: same style this year. I feel like when you get 2101 01:45:26,560 --> 01:45:28,599 Speaker 24: down in the red zone, and fantasy owners don't want 2102 01:45:28,600 --> 01:45:30,599 Speaker 24: to hear this. They have James Cook, but you bring 2103 01:45:30,680 --> 01:45:33,479 Speaker 24: in a Latavious Murray, you bring in a Damian Harris, 2104 01:45:33,800 --> 01:45:36,120 Speaker 24: You're going to dictate more of what the defense can 2105 01:45:36,200 --> 01:45:38,599 Speaker 24: do because they have to respect the fact that those 2106 01:45:38,680 --> 01:45:41,200 Speaker 24: guys can pile ahead for five at a time, and 2107 01:45:41,800 --> 01:45:44,160 Speaker 24: those are all four point plays down there, and you're 2108 01:45:44,200 --> 01:45:46,040 Speaker 24: not trying to give up. You're not trying to allow 2109 01:45:46,439 --> 01:45:49,160 Speaker 24: teams to get the third and short just by being 2110 01:45:49,200 --> 01:45:51,840 Speaker 24: able to pound the football. So you're gonna dictate what 2111 01:45:52,040 --> 01:45:54,880 Speaker 24: defenses can do. I'm excited about both those guys. And 2112 01:45:55,240 --> 01:45:58,000 Speaker 24: you say found the youth at thirty three years old, 2113 01:45:58,080 --> 01:46:01,080 Speaker 24: I mean, to me, he's kind of been this guy. 2114 01:46:00,960 --> 01:46:01,639 Speaker 5: Throughout his career. 2115 01:46:01,680 --> 01:46:05,960 Speaker 24: He's had that explosion throughout his career. And we talked 2116 01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:08,640 Speaker 24: about this in the preseason, Chris. You know, however, you 2117 01:46:08,720 --> 01:46:11,519 Speaker 24: look at running backs, it's not necessarily an amount of 2118 01:46:11,640 --> 01:46:14,080 Speaker 24: years in the league gets you know, some of those 2119 01:46:14,200 --> 01:46:16,920 Speaker 24: running backs that come out of Alabama, they're taking massive 2120 01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:19,960 Speaker 24: shots in college over a few years. Like that accounts 2121 01:46:20,000 --> 01:46:22,479 Speaker 24: to it too. And it seems like Latavius Murray over 2122 01:46:22,600 --> 01:46:26,360 Speaker 24: his career, where he's always had, you know, bit a compliment, 2123 01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:30,160 Speaker 24: I'll say it's allowed him to stay fresher than most 2124 01:46:30,240 --> 01:46:31,320 Speaker 24: running backs have been able to. 2125 01:46:31,880 --> 01:46:34,280 Speaker 2: And with that on that side of the running ball, 2126 01:46:34,320 --> 01:46:36,559 Speaker 2: where you think the Bills have upgraded their running back position, 2127 01:46:36,640 --> 01:46:39,680 Speaker 2: the Bills also have switched middle linebackers, so their run 2128 01:46:39,800 --> 01:46:41,360 Speaker 2: defense is now going to be under a little bit 2129 01:46:41,360 --> 01:46:44,720 Speaker 2: of a question mark. Christian Terrell Bernard is going to 2130 01:46:44,760 --> 01:46:49,080 Speaker 2: get the nod after being virtually absent during the preseason 2131 01:46:49,120 --> 01:46:52,400 Speaker 2: because of a hamstring injury, and the battle kept going 2132 01:46:52,479 --> 01:46:54,160 Speaker 2: on and on. With all these question marks, who's going 2133 01:46:54,200 --> 01:46:57,120 Speaker 2: to play well? Who's not Baial inspector then pulled his hamstring. 2134 01:46:57,200 --> 01:46:59,559 Speaker 2: He's out of it. Terrell Dodson got the line share 2135 01:46:59,600 --> 01:47:03,559 Speaker 2: that rep, and Yetterrell Bernard is gonna be the guy. 2136 01:47:03,640 --> 01:47:04,320 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts? 2137 01:47:05,640 --> 01:47:07,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's the athleticism. 2138 01:47:07,560 --> 01:47:09,760 Speaker 24: And look, yes, you gotta be able to defend the 2139 01:47:09,840 --> 01:47:13,200 Speaker 24: run in today's NFL, but if you can't cover that 2140 01:47:13,320 --> 01:47:15,519 Speaker 24: middle of the field with the RPOs, you need more 2141 01:47:15,560 --> 01:47:18,080 Speaker 24: athleticism in the middle of the defense on a down 2142 01:47:18,120 --> 01:47:21,200 Speaker 24: to that basis, you know, if if Nate Hackett decides 2143 01:47:21,200 --> 01:47:23,640 Speaker 24: tonight that we're gonna throw a fullback out there, if 2144 01:47:23,640 --> 01:47:25,560 Speaker 24: we're gonna run with multiple tight ends, there may be 2145 01:47:25,640 --> 01:47:27,840 Speaker 24: a time that Dotson's out there tonight in a three 2146 01:47:27,880 --> 01:47:32,400 Speaker 24: linebacker said, and you have Bernard and Milano on the outside. 2147 01:47:32,520 --> 01:47:36,080 Speaker 24: But to me, it just appeared throughout the preseason that 2148 01:47:36,160 --> 01:47:39,080 Speaker 24: we just need a little bit more athleticism in the 2149 01:47:39,200 --> 01:47:43,320 Speaker 24: middle of that defense, and Bernard brings it. And you know, Chris, 2150 01:47:43,479 --> 01:47:47,280 Speaker 24: as we approached this start of the season as broadcast partners, 2151 01:47:47,520 --> 01:47:50,320 Speaker 24: what Steve just did with Christian Bedford and Terrell Bernard 2152 01:47:50,560 --> 01:47:52,560 Speaker 24: kind of mixing up the first name of the I 2153 01:47:52,680 --> 01:47:55,160 Speaker 24: do I find myself doing that constantly. We're gonna have 2154 01:47:55,200 --> 01:47:57,960 Speaker 24: to that's gonna be like our dollar jar. That's number 2155 01:47:58,040 --> 01:47:59,920 Speaker 24: one on our dollar jar for this year. 2156 01:48:00,080 --> 01:48:05,080 Speaker 8: It's what we Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it. 2157 01:48:05,320 --> 01:48:05,720 Speaker 11: I get it. 2158 01:48:06,520 --> 01:48:06,640 Speaker 9: Uh. 2159 01:48:07,320 --> 01:48:10,640 Speaker 8: I was thinking about the cornerback situation. 2160 01:48:11,280 --> 01:48:14,439 Speaker 9: Eric and obviously Christian Benford made a late push at 2161 01:48:14,439 --> 01:48:18,439 Speaker 9: the end to seize the starting job opposite Tradeavious White. 2162 01:48:19,040 --> 01:48:21,040 Speaker 8: But I think it's also interesting to. 2163 01:48:21,120 --> 01:48:25,040 Speaker 9: Note that there doesn't appear to be a tremendous degree 2164 01:48:25,240 --> 01:48:29,160 Speaker 9: of separation from Tredevious White at the top of that 2165 01:48:29,600 --> 01:48:33,000 Speaker 9: cornerback pyramid to whoever they deem to be the third 2166 01:48:33,120 --> 01:48:35,679 Speaker 9: or fourth, whether it's Dane Jackson or Kye or Elam, 2167 01:48:36,040 --> 01:48:39,320 Speaker 9: those four outside guys, there doesn't appear to be a 2168 01:48:39,360 --> 01:48:42,719 Speaker 9: great degree of separation from the top to the bottom. 2169 01:48:43,360 --> 01:48:44,200 Speaker 2: How likely do you. 2170 01:48:44,320 --> 01:48:47,760 Speaker 9: Think it is that in a given week they could 2171 01:48:47,840 --> 01:48:51,720 Speaker 9: see a given matchup that they may like better with 2172 01:48:51,960 --> 01:48:55,280 Speaker 9: maybe corner three or four, with a player they might 2173 01:48:55,360 --> 01:48:58,080 Speaker 9: be going against on an opposing offense in a given week, 2174 01:48:58,160 --> 01:49:00,000 Speaker 9: and say, hey, let's give this guy a little more 2175 01:49:00,320 --> 01:49:03,040 Speaker 9: time this week. If you want to man up Kyrie 2176 01:49:03,120 --> 01:49:05,280 Speaker 9: Elam on somebody, for example, you know, what I'm saying. So, 2177 01:49:05,640 --> 01:49:07,960 Speaker 9: how likely do you think that could come to pass 2178 01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:09,160 Speaker 9: over the course of this season? 2179 01:49:10,080 --> 01:49:11,519 Speaker 5: Man, that's a really good question. 2180 01:49:11,800 --> 01:49:14,960 Speaker 24: And so let me as I look at this cornerback 2181 01:49:16,400 --> 01:49:20,400 Speaker 24: position group. Just because Kyrie Illam didn't win the number 2182 01:49:20,439 --> 01:49:23,840 Speaker 24: two job, everyone immediately is taking shots at him and 2183 01:49:23,920 --> 01:49:27,479 Speaker 24: not make me giving the proper praise to what Benford 2184 01:49:27,520 --> 01:49:28,960 Speaker 24: has been able to do come in as. 2185 01:49:28,880 --> 01:49:29,720 Speaker 5: A small school guy. 2186 01:49:30,080 --> 01:49:32,280 Speaker 24: You know, this is a great scouting job by the 2187 01:49:32,320 --> 01:49:34,160 Speaker 24: Bills to be able to bring in a guy of 2188 01:49:34,280 --> 01:49:36,639 Speaker 24: that caliber that late in the draft and for him 2189 01:49:36,680 --> 01:49:38,280 Speaker 24: to be starting in year two and. 2190 01:49:38,320 --> 01:49:41,000 Speaker 5: You have that much confidence he actually won the job 2191 01:49:41,120 --> 01:49:42,760 Speaker 5: last year. It was rotating up at the end of 2192 01:49:42,760 --> 01:49:43,519 Speaker 5: the season as well. 2193 01:49:43,640 --> 01:49:47,200 Speaker 24: And so to me, they have four solid cornerbacks, which 2194 01:49:47,240 --> 01:49:49,960 Speaker 24: is a luxury in the NFL. And it wouldn't surprise 2195 01:49:50,080 --> 01:49:53,320 Speaker 24: me to see multiple packages this year. I mean, you 2196 01:49:53,360 --> 01:49:55,280 Speaker 24: look at some of the better defenses in the NFL 2197 01:49:55,360 --> 01:49:58,040 Speaker 24: last year, especially in the AFC teams like the Bengals, 2198 01:49:58,080 --> 01:50:02,200 Speaker 24: teams like the Chiefs that they mixed up. You know, 2199 01:50:02,479 --> 01:50:05,240 Speaker 24: the amount of defensive backs on the field constantly without 2200 01:50:05,280 --> 01:50:08,240 Speaker 24: Tremaine Evans there this year, maybe it's an extra corner. 2201 01:50:08,360 --> 01:50:12,000 Speaker 24: Maybe it's Taylor Rapp where we're adding some extra secondary 2202 01:50:12,280 --> 01:50:14,360 Speaker 24: out on the field, But no, that wouldn't surprise me. 2203 01:50:14,840 --> 01:50:18,800 Speaker 24: And you know, hopefully the Bills can go through the 2204 01:50:18,880 --> 01:50:21,640 Speaker 24: season unscathed with injury at the cornerback position. But what 2205 01:50:21,760 --> 01:50:23,439 Speaker 24: a luxury it is they have four guys that you 2206 01:50:23,520 --> 01:50:26,960 Speaker 24: have confidence in because you could be the naysayer of 2207 01:50:27,080 --> 01:50:29,360 Speaker 24: the group and say, look, you know they had three 2208 01:50:29,400 --> 01:50:33,479 Speaker 24: guys at a competition and the fifth rounder from Billanova won. 2209 01:50:33,960 --> 01:50:36,760 Speaker 5: You know, that's no good for this group. Where you 2210 01:50:36,800 --> 01:50:39,600 Speaker 5: could say, wow, they have some serious talent on the 2211 01:50:39,720 --> 01:50:40,880 Speaker 5: edge with this Bill's defense. 2212 01:50:41,560 --> 01:50:43,599 Speaker 2: Last one for me, I gotta ask you to as 2213 01:50:44,040 --> 01:50:46,360 Speaker 2: this game rolls forward. We saw and we haven't talked 2214 01:50:46,360 --> 01:50:48,400 Speaker 2: to you since the Chiefs game Thursday night where they 2215 01:50:48,439 --> 01:50:51,080 Speaker 2: got beat by one point by the Detroit Lions. That game, 2216 01:50:51,479 --> 01:50:53,439 Speaker 2: I told Browning said this on the show last week 2217 01:50:53,479 --> 01:50:57,719 Speaker 2: that that lost that the Kansas City Chiefs took looked 2218 01:50:57,720 --> 01:51:01,960 Speaker 2: a lot like the losses the Bills take. They dropped 2219 01:51:02,000 --> 01:51:05,920 Speaker 2: some passes, had some bad penalties and lost by one 2220 01:51:06,280 --> 01:51:09,880 Speaker 2: to a team that was playing lights out. That's the 2221 01:51:09,960 --> 01:51:11,760 Speaker 2: way it has been for the Bills. It was where 2222 01:51:11,760 --> 01:51:14,800 Speaker 2: it was the entire season last year lost three games 2223 01:51:14,880 --> 01:51:16,720 Speaker 2: total of eight points. We've been through this a ton. 2224 01:51:18,160 --> 01:51:20,360 Speaker 2: How do you do you think that's the script going 2225 01:51:20,520 --> 01:51:23,120 Speaker 2: forward this season for the Bills? Can they be that? 2226 01:51:23,520 --> 01:51:27,040 Speaker 2: Are they gonna be that tough out throughout this season? 2227 01:51:27,080 --> 01:51:28,519 Speaker 2: I think this is gonna be a tough game. So 2228 01:51:28,560 --> 01:51:30,280 Speaker 2: now I think this game, I think is gonna be 2229 01:51:30,320 --> 01:51:32,400 Speaker 2: a very close one that's gonna come down to three 2230 01:51:32,479 --> 01:51:35,960 Speaker 2: plays or four plays or two plays that make the difference. 2231 01:51:36,240 --> 01:51:38,000 Speaker 2: But is that where the Bills are right now? Are 2232 01:51:38,040 --> 01:51:40,160 Speaker 2: they gonna be able to maintain that quality of play 2233 01:51:40,760 --> 01:51:43,120 Speaker 2: and that huge point differential? 2234 01:51:44,960 --> 01:51:47,120 Speaker 24: Yeah, I mean I would assume so. There'd be no 2235 01:51:47,240 --> 01:51:49,479 Speaker 24: reason for me to think otherwise. I mean, this team 2236 01:51:49,520 --> 01:51:51,280 Speaker 24: has been so good in the regular season over the 2237 01:51:51,400 --> 01:51:53,800 Speaker 24: last few years and truly handled business. 2238 01:51:53,479 --> 01:51:55,560 Speaker 5: Week in and week out. I mean so much so 2239 01:51:55,680 --> 01:51:57,400 Speaker 5: that we can think back to the clunkers. 2240 01:51:57,479 --> 01:52:00,599 Speaker 24: Like, as you brought up the three losses by combined 2241 01:52:00,640 --> 01:52:03,000 Speaker 24: eight points, I was thinking, Okay, well, had the clunker 2242 01:52:03,040 --> 01:52:08,000 Speaker 24: and Jacksonville we losing the game, you know, the one 2243 01:52:09,000 --> 01:52:11,040 Speaker 24: in the rain against Kansas City at home, the one 2244 01:52:11,120 --> 01:52:14,439 Speaker 24: in the winstorm against it It's like it's funny, we've 2245 01:52:14,479 --> 01:52:15,320 Speaker 24: lost so few. 2246 01:52:15,200 --> 01:52:18,360 Speaker 5: Games that we can go back and just pinpoint. 2247 01:52:18,000 --> 01:52:20,280 Speaker 24: Each and every loss, which hasn't always been the case, 2248 01:52:20,760 --> 01:52:24,160 Speaker 24: especially throughout my tenure. And so yes, I think the 2249 01:52:24,240 --> 01:52:26,240 Speaker 24: Bills are going to be another tough out this year, 2250 01:52:26,280 --> 01:52:28,600 Speaker 24: and it's because they're so good on both sides of 2251 01:52:28,640 --> 01:52:28,920 Speaker 24: the ball. 2252 01:52:28,960 --> 01:52:30,519 Speaker 5: I mean, this is a team that. 2253 01:52:31,120 --> 01:52:34,479 Speaker 24: Has just been the epitome of consistency, consistently rolling out 2254 01:52:34,520 --> 01:52:37,160 Speaker 24: top five defenses over the last five six years. As 2255 01:52:37,200 --> 01:52:39,439 Speaker 24: I mentioned, scored the most points in the NFL over 2256 01:52:39,479 --> 01:52:42,800 Speaker 24: the last three years. I mean, this is a really 2257 01:52:42,840 --> 01:52:47,519 Speaker 24: good football team. And I know the hype isn't necessarily 2258 01:52:47,600 --> 01:52:49,640 Speaker 24: there like it was last year in media circles with 2259 01:52:49,760 --> 01:52:53,000 Speaker 24: this team, but I think just by getting healthier in 2260 01:52:53,120 --> 01:52:57,000 Speaker 24: your secondary along your defensive tackle position, eventually you're gonna 2261 01:52:57,000 --> 01:52:59,599 Speaker 24: get Von Miller back. Gabe Davis is starting this season 2262 01:52:59,640 --> 01:53:01,920 Speaker 24: healthy additions on offense, upgrading at guard. 2263 01:53:02,680 --> 01:53:05,040 Speaker 5: I mean, to me, that's a big deal. 2264 01:53:05,720 --> 01:53:09,800 Speaker 24: And I don't know, I truly like the Bills a 2265 01:53:09,920 --> 01:53:13,599 Speaker 24: lot heading into this season, and there was not an 2266 01:53:13,720 --> 01:53:15,840 Speaker 24: extra level excitement I had about him last year, and 2267 01:53:15,880 --> 01:53:18,960 Speaker 24: I was I was very optimistic about their season last year. 2268 01:53:18,840 --> 01:53:22,360 Speaker 9: As well, Eric, thanks much for the time. We'll catch 2269 01:53:22,439 --> 01:53:25,000 Speaker 9: up with you later on the Bills Radio network for 2270 01:53:25,080 --> 01:53:25,679 Speaker 9: the game tonight. 2271 01:53:26,680 --> 01:53:28,479 Speaker 5: Looking forward to it.

And we head back to 2284 01:54:08,520 --> 01:54:11,200 Speaker 9: the Phone's got some people waiting patiently there, and we 2285 01:54:11,320 --> 01:54:12,840 Speaker 9: go to Mike in Batavian X. 2286 01:54:12,920 --> 01:54:16,320 Speaker 8: What do you got for us?

We move over to 2290 01:54:23,640 --> 01:54:24,839 Speaker 9: James in Lockport. 2291 01:54:24,880 --> 01:54:25,800 Speaker 8: What do you got for us? James? 2292 01:54:26,720 --> 01:54:29,840 Speaker 11: Oh, you know I'm listening to you guys talking, you know, 2293 01:54:29,920 --> 01:54:31,639 Speaker 11: and I think the Bills are gonna be just fine. 2294 01:54:31,680 --> 01:54:33,760 Speaker 11: You know, but you look at what happened this week 2295 01:54:33,840 --> 01:54:35,920 Speaker 11: in the league, and you know, Detroit's gonna go to 2296 01:54:36,000 --> 01:54:40,800 Speaker 11: the super Bowl, Kansas City, They're done. I cracked up 2297 01:54:40,880 --> 01:54:43,640 Speaker 11: listen to that. And then you know the Bills. That 2298 01:54:43,840 --> 01:54:45,320 Speaker 11: kind of this game is gonna kind of remind me 2299 01:54:45,400 --> 01:54:48,080 Speaker 11: of what happened with the Giants. You know, the Bills 2300 01:54:48,080 --> 01:54:49,840 Speaker 11: are going to go in there. You know, the Giants 2301 01:54:49,880 --> 01:54:51,400 Speaker 11: all hyped up. They're gonna do what the Bills are 2302 01:54:51,400 --> 01:54:53,200 Speaker 11: gonna do, the same thing. Bills are gonna go into 2303 01:54:53,240 --> 01:54:56,600 Speaker 11: the Jets, and I honestly don't think the Bills the 2304 01:54:56,680 --> 01:54:59,120 Speaker 11: Jets have a chance against Buffalo. They're talking all this 2305 01:54:59,280 --> 01:55:01,600 Speaker 11: hype that this that the Bills know what they need 2306 01:55:01,720 --> 01:55:03,960 Speaker 11: to do. The Bills are ready, They're going to go 2307 01:55:04,040 --> 01:55:05,920 Speaker 11: in there, and I don't think it's going to really 2308 01:55:05,960 --> 01:55:08,560 Speaker 11: be a close game. That's my opinion. Another question I 2309 01:55:08,640 --> 01:55:13,120 Speaker 11: had for you before I go new England's backup quarterback. 2310 01:55:13,600 --> 01:55:16,800 Speaker 11: Did they happen to find where he is or if 2311 01:55:16,800 --> 01:55:18,880 Speaker 11: he's okay? Thank you and I'll listen to your call. 2312 01:55:19,160 --> 01:55:20,360 Speaker 12: Thanks all right. 2313 01:55:20,560 --> 01:55:24,120 Speaker 2: I have not heard the latest on the Corral. Matt Corral. 2314 01:55:25,760 --> 01:55:28,080 Speaker 2: I don't know if you heard this, Brownie. He disappeared 2315 01:55:28,600 --> 01:55:31,839 Speaker 2: and they couldn't find him, and he's battled mental Davis 2316 01:55:32,680 --> 01:55:36,880 Speaker 2: and uh, I'm sorry, Steve. I'm as much in the 2317 01:55:36,960 --> 01:55:40,200 Speaker 2: dark as anybody else as they were. Matt Corral, the 2318 01:55:40,320 --> 01:55:47,280 Speaker 2: backup quarterback they signed after last week, he didn't show 2319 01:55:47,360 --> 01:55:50,680 Speaker 2: up for work and they had not been in contact 2320 01:55:50,920 --> 01:55:52,920 Speaker 2: with him and had no word about what happened to him. 2321 01:55:52,960 --> 01:55:56,640 Speaker 2: So the last I knew, I didn't even know if 2322 01:55:56,720 --> 01:55:58,600 Speaker 2: I could. He couldn't even tell you if the Patriots 2323 01:55:58,640 --> 01:56:00,080 Speaker 2: went to his place and looked for him and he 2324 01:56:00,320 --> 01:56:02,080 Speaker 2: you know, was looking for him and couldn't find him. 2325 01:56:02,080 --> 01:56:03,880 Speaker 2: But I have not heard the latest on that. 2326 01:56:05,480 --> 01:56:09,840 Speaker 8: Yeah, did you say he had he had he had issues? 2327 01:56:09,880 --> 01:56:15,200 Speaker 2: He has had he has had Yeah, he has had 2328 01:56:16,480 --> 01:56:22,320 Speaker 2: bouts of mental issues, you know, just depression, whatever things 2329 01:56:22,360 --> 01:56:23,880 Speaker 2: he's had to look for. He's been very old. I 2330 01:56:23,920 --> 01:56:26,040 Speaker 2: guess he's been very open about it. That's my understanding. 2331 01:56:28,080 --> 01:56:30,200 Speaker 2: But he didn't show up and now they're worried about him, 2332 01:56:30,200 --> 01:56:31,800 Speaker 2: and I have not heard the latest on that. It's 2333 01:56:31,800 --> 01:56:32,280 Speaker 2: been a day. 2334 01:56:33,640 --> 01:56:36,720 Speaker 9: So they put him on the exempt list, and they 2335 01:56:36,840 --> 01:56:40,480 Speaker 9: elevated Bailey Zappi from the practice let's serve as the backup. 2336 01:56:42,520 --> 01:56:44,720 Speaker 8: And he had just signed with them like ten days ago, 2337 01:56:45,120 --> 01:56:45,720 Speaker 8: that's right. 2338 01:56:45,680 --> 01:56:48,360 Speaker 9: And he got released by the Carolina Panthers, and he's 2339 01:56:48,360 --> 01:56:49,880 Speaker 9: I mean, he's a former third round pick from. 2340 01:56:49,800 --> 01:56:52,680 Speaker 2: You can imagine miss think about it though, as as 2341 01:56:52,680 --> 01:56:55,600 Speaker 2: a kid like you know, and stress can sometimes get 2342 01:56:55,640 --> 01:56:57,960 Speaker 2: to all of us. And to be signed by a 2343 01:56:58,080 --> 01:57:01,800 Speaker 2: team like the Patriots and brought in and then told hey, listen, 2344 01:57:01,880 --> 01:57:04,400 Speaker 2: we need you to be ready in a certain situation. 2345 01:57:04,520 --> 01:57:06,240 Speaker 2: We want you to be our guy. It's a lot 2346 01:57:06,280 --> 01:57:08,000 Speaker 2: of stress for a young guy to be put under. 2347 01:57:08,280 --> 01:57:12,280 Speaker 2: Try and come in and assimilate an offense as complicated 2348 01:57:12,320 --> 01:57:16,720 Speaker 2: as the Patriots probably is, and feel like there's a 2349 01:57:16,800 --> 01:57:18,360 Speaker 2: chance the whole weight of the world might be on 2350 01:57:18,480 --> 01:57:22,160 Speaker 2: your shoulders. That's hard. 2351 01:57:22,560 --> 01:57:26,560 Speaker 9: Based on what I'm reading here online, it took them 2352 01:57:26,640 --> 01:57:27,880 Speaker 9: two days to find him. 2353 01:57:29,080 --> 01:57:33,960 Speaker 8: But coach Belichick this morning on a radio interview. 2354 01:57:34,400 --> 01:57:36,960 Speaker 9: Up in Boston, said the team has been in contact 2355 01:57:37,080 --> 01:57:41,000 Speaker 9: with Corral but as is typically his situation, he declined 2356 01:57:41,040 --> 01:57:44,480 Speaker 9: to elaborate. All he said was he's an exempt status. 2357 01:57:44,600 --> 01:57:48,240 Speaker 9: I don't have any comment that's a personal matter. And 2358 01:57:48,320 --> 01:57:51,240 Speaker 9: then they cite the fact that Corral has had mental 2359 01:57:51,320 --> 01:57:55,280 Speaker 9: health struggles in the past, so certainly hope he's okay, 2360 01:57:56,320 --> 01:57:59,160 Speaker 9: and you know he's getting the proper care or whatever 2361 01:57:59,240 --> 01:58:02,160 Speaker 9: it is he might be dealing with. Let's go back 2362 01:58:02,200 --> 01:58:05,440 Speaker 9: to the phones and we go to Lucas in Ohio. 2363 01:58:05,560 --> 01:58:06,560 Speaker 9: What do you got for us, Lucas? 2364 01:58:09,000 --> 01:58:11,440 Speaker 14: How you guys doing, Chris, I just want to say 2365 01:58:11,480 --> 01:58:14,400 Speaker 14: I've been following your work as the lead journalist for 2366 01:58:14,480 --> 01:58:17,040 Speaker 14: the Bills for fifteen twenty years, even though I was 2367 01:58:17,040 --> 01:58:18,760 Speaker 14: a little kid, so I've always been a big fan 2368 01:58:18,800 --> 01:58:21,360 Speaker 14: of yours. And then Steve, I actually went to Cornell 2369 01:58:21,480 --> 01:58:24,200 Speaker 14: to your son Luke, so plad I got to get 2370 01:58:24,240 --> 01:58:25,680 Speaker 14: on the blow over to you guys quick. I'm actually 2371 01:58:25,760 --> 01:58:28,200 Speaker 14: driving with my wife to New Jersey right now. We're 2372 01:58:28,200 --> 01:58:31,360 Speaker 14: going to the game tonight. I kind of want echo 2373 01:58:31,480 --> 01:58:34,040 Speaker 14: with the guy said earlier. I think the Bills know 2374 01:58:34,160 --> 01:58:36,680 Speaker 14: exactly what they're doing. I think Josh Allen's gonna do 2375 01:58:36,720 --> 01:58:40,120 Speaker 14: what Josh Allen does best. Mind you, I'm driving, so 2376 01:58:40,520 --> 01:58:44,520 Speaker 14: speaking kind of slowly, but ultimately I think Aaron Rodgers 2377 01:58:44,560 --> 01:58:47,800 Speaker 14: is there for a paycheck. With all the hype you know, 2378 01:58:47,880 --> 01:58:51,040 Speaker 14: with hard knocks and everything. I think that the Bill's defense, 2379 01:58:51,120 --> 01:58:54,200 Speaker 14: Sean McDermot calling the shots, he's gonna clamp down to 2380 01:58:54,240 --> 01:58:56,040 Speaker 14: the Micah Hyde back in the cutting. All the veterans 2381 01:58:56,040 --> 01:58:58,360 Speaker 14: are gonna have fun with it. And I think because 2382 01:58:58,440 --> 01:59:00,320 Speaker 14: Josh Allen's gonna do what he needs to do, already 2383 01:59:00,320 --> 01:59:01,880 Speaker 14: needs to score, I think it's going to be our 2384 01:59:01,920 --> 01:59:06,839 Speaker 14: defense that really takes the storyline here and shuts down Rogers. 2385 01:59:07,240 --> 01:59:09,120 Speaker 14: And that's what I think is gonna happen. And I 2386 01:59:09,160 --> 01:59:10,400 Speaker 14: appreciate you both. Thank you. 2387 01:59:12,040 --> 01:59:14,120 Speaker 9: All right, Thank thanks Lucas for the kind words and 2388 01:59:14,160 --> 01:59:17,720 Speaker 9: safe travels to you on your way to MetLife Stadium tonight. 2389 01:59:17,800 --> 01:59:20,400 Speaker 8: That's a that's a half from Ohios. 2390 01:59:20,640 --> 01:59:26,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's no joke. He started. He must have started yesterday. Yeah, 2391 01:59:26,280 --> 01:59:30,240 Speaker 2: who knows. We were Let's face it, we thought, and 2392 01:59:30,360 --> 01:59:32,640 Speaker 2: there's you know this, we don't know what's going to 2393 01:59:32,680 --> 01:59:35,600 Speaker 2: happen tonight, and you look back at what's happened in 2394 01:59:35,640 --> 01:59:37,520 Speaker 2: the past and try and project it into the future. 2395 01:59:37,880 --> 01:59:41,560 Speaker 2: We were very all of us were very apprehensive about 2396 01:59:41,600 --> 01:59:43,280 Speaker 2: the way the season was going to begin last year 2397 01:59:43,320 --> 01:59:45,320 Speaker 2: when we were going into the Los Angeles to play 2398 01:59:45,360 --> 01:59:49,480 Speaker 2: the World champions after they just took home the Lombardi 2399 01:59:49,560 --> 01:59:52,360 Speaker 2: Trophy and the Bills were still thinking they were you know, 2400 01:59:52,360 --> 01:59:53,880 Speaker 2: and they were on that hype train. Bills were the 2401 01:59:53,920 --> 01:59:56,400 Speaker 2: hype train last year and they went and did it. 2402 01:59:56,480 --> 02:00:00,600 Speaker 2: I mean it was thirty one to ten. They let 2403 02:00:00,600 --> 02:00:05,200 Speaker 2: them up pretty good. But that Rams team last year 2404 02:00:05,320 --> 02:00:10,440 Speaker 2: is not this Jet team this year. You can and 2405 02:00:10,720 --> 02:00:12,280 Speaker 2: I agree with you, the Bills are going to be 2406 02:00:12,320 --> 02:00:13,080 Speaker 2: tough to beat tonight. 2407 02:00:14,520 --> 02:00:14,960 Speaker 8: But I don't. 2408 02:00:15,120 --> 02:00:16,520 Speaker 2: I think the Jets are going to be pretty tough 2409 02:00:16,560 --> 02:00:16,960 Speaker 2: to beat too. 2410 02:00:17,640 --> 02:00:17,920 Speaker 8: I don't. 2411 02:00:18,040 --> 02:00:20,120 Speaker 2: I don't think this is I don't think this is 2412 02:00:20,160 --> 02:00:21,240 Speaker 2: a runaway by either team. 2413 02:00:22,080 --> 02:00:23,840 Speaker 9: I mean, if you look up and down, I know 2414 02:00:23,920 --> 02:00:27,120 Speaker 9: the Bills get credit for having a top five roster 2415 02:00:28,040 --> 02:00:30,520 Speaker 9: in this league. I think you can make the argument 2416 02:00:30,600 --> 02:00:34,160 Speaker 9: that the Jets roster is pretty comparable top to bottom 2417 02:00:34,200 --> 02:00:36,960 Speaker 9: in terms of pure talent. Now, will they play as 2418 02:00:37,000 --> 02:00:38,880 Speaker 9: well as a collective unit as the Bills have the 2419 02:00:38,960 --> 02:00:40,840 Speaker 9: last three seasons, That's where we have to wait and 2420 02:00:40,920 --> 02:00:44,880 Speaker 9: check on. But from a talent perspective, they're a pretty 2421 02:00:44,960 --> 02:00:48,760 Speaker 9: stacked team on both sides of the ball. So a 2422 02:00:48,840 --> 02:00:52,480 Speaker 9: lot of high young draft choices, because you know, the 2423 02:00:52,600 --> 02:00:54,960 Speaker 9: Jets have struggled, so they've picked high in the draft. 2424 02:00:55,120 --> 02:00:57,120 Speaker 9: I mean two years ago they had three first round 2425 02:00:57,200 --> 02:01:04,160 Speaker 9: picks and you know they picked fifteenth again this year. 2426 02:01:04,240 --> 02:01:07,760 Speaker 9: I mean they're picking fifteen, ten to fifteen picks ahead 2427 02:01:07,760 --> 02:01:10,760 Speaker 9: of the Bills every year, if not higher. And they've 2428 02:01:10,800 --> 02:01:14,440 Speaker 9: accumulated some talent thanks to their Joe Douglas actually getting 2429 02:01:14,480 --> 02:01:17,120 Speaker 9: this whole scouting thing right, which you can't say for 2430 02:01:17,200 --> 02:01:18,880 Speaker 9: a lot of his predecessors in that position. 2431 02:01:18,960 --> 02:01:21,360 Speaker 8: For the Jets organization, and it's made. 2432 02:01:21,200 --> 02:01:25,480 Speaker 9: A difference, so their roster is not far off from 2433 02:01:25,520 --> 02:01:27,440 Speaker 9: a talent perspective, it might be comparable. 2434 02:01:27,560 --> 02:01:30,960 Speaker 2: Oh I might be dead even Yeah, I agree. Aaron 2435 02:01:31,040 --> 02:01:36,200 Speaker 2: Rodgers brings them, brings them out of whatever inequities they had, 2436 02:01:37,600 --> 02:01:39,800 Speaker 2: and their last two drafts have been on point, no 2437 02:01:39,960 --> 02:01:44,840 Speaker 2: question about it. They've been really good. Yes, the Jets 2438 02:01:44,880 --> 02:01:47,640 Speaker 2: are a really good roster, really good football team, and 2439 02:01:47,720 --> 02:01:50,200 Speaker 2: you can put it out there. It's true they won't 2440 02:01:50,280 --> 02:01:55,880 Speaker 2: have the continuity that the Bills do, but whether that 2441 02:01:56,040 --> 02:01:58,800 Speaker 2: costs you a game or not, that's far from known. 2442 02:01:58,880 --> 02:02:00,960 Speaker 2: I mean this as a team that's gonna go out 2443 02:02:01,000 --> 02:02:04,000 Speaker 2: there and execute pretty well, particularly on the defensive side. 2444 02:02:04,440 --> 02:02:08,360 Speaker 2: And with Aaron Rodgers and his abilities to get rid 2445 02:02:08,400 --> 02:02:12,160 Speaker 2: of the football and know where everybody's gonna be. I 2446 02:02:12,240 --> 02:02:14,480 Speaker 2: think that there's gonna be there's gonna be a lot 2447 02:02:14,520 --> 02:02:16,720 Speaker 2: of pressure on the Bills and their defense and their 2448 02:02:16,760 --> 02:02:19,680 Speaker 2: head coaches defensive coordinator to make some hay against Aaron 2449 02:02:19,800 --> 02:02:22,760 Speaker 2: Rodgers or they may get lit up on the scoreboard. 2450 02:02:23,200 --> 02:02:25,760 Speaker 2: They got a crew over there, So we're gonna have 2451 02:02:25,960 --> 02:02:27,760 Speaker 2: the Bills defense is gonna have its work cut. 2452 02:02:27,680 --> 02:02:28,080 Speaker 3: Out for it. 2453 02:02:30,120 --> 02:02:31,840 Speaker 8: Back to the phones and we're gonna try Mike and 2454 02:02:31,880 --> 02:02:33,400 Speaker 8: Batavia again. Mike here, you're with us? 2455 02:02:34,520 --> 02:02:35,080 Speaker 12: Yeah I am. 2456 02:02:35,160 --> 02:02:35,640 Speaker 18: Can you hear me? 2457 02:02:36,720 --> 02:02:36,920 Speaker 8: Yeah? 2458 02:02:37,920 --> 02:02:40,960 Speaker 18: All right, thanks for taking the call. Appreciate it and 2459 02:02:41,080 --> 02:02:43,440 Speaker 18: listening to you guys all summer. Love the show. And 2460 02:02:43,600 --> 02:02:47,720 Speaker 18: to Steve's point, actually my point, the biggest maybe maybe 2461 02:02:47,720 --> 02:02:49,440 Speaker 18: it'll be the key to the game tonight. I agree 2462 02:02:49,480 --> 02:02:52,560 Speaker 18: with what everybody said about the old line and the defense, 2463 02:02:54,280 --> 02:02:57,160 Speaker 18: but I think the key and maybe for the season, 2464 02:02:57,560 --> 02:03:00,240 Speaker 18: goes back to the coordinators. You know, let's hope that 2465 02:03:00,280 --> 02:03:04,200 Speaker 18: our two big young guys on the right side hold up. 2466 02:03:04,240 --> 02:03:04,400 Speaker 20: Well. 2467 02:03:04,440 --> 02:03:06,560 Speaker 18: I think they will, and I think Rousseau and Floyd 2468 02:03:06,640 --> 02:03:07,960 Speaker 18: have to have a big game tonight, and I think 2469 02:03:08,000 --> 02:03:11,400 Speaker 18: they will. But what I'm most interested is seeing can 2470 02:03:11,440 --> 02:03:15,400 Speaker 18: Shawn McDermott take a very talented defense and with a 2471 02:03:15,480 --> 02:03:22,720 Speaker 18: little more creativity, unpredictableness, whatever creativeness, have that defense become 2472 02:03:22,800 --> 02:03:26,600 Speaker 18: even better at making those big plays, turning those big 2473 02:03:26,720 --> 02:03:29,000 Speaker 18: moments in the game. And the same to Ken Dorsey. 2474 02:03:29,040 --> 02:03:31,240 Speaker 18: I mean, I love the idea. I hope I see 2475 02:03:32,040 --> 02:03:36,320 Speaker 18: Cook with Steph and Gabe Davis and Dolankin Kid and 2476 02:03:36,440 --> 02:03:39,360 Speaker 18: Dawson Knox's like, good luck covering all those guys. I 2477 02:03:39,520 --> 02:03:42,920 Speaker 18: hope that the Ken Dorsey can sprinkle his magic dust 2478 02:03:43,040 --> 02:03:46,880 Speaker 18: on this twelve offense and that we see the team 2479 02:03:46,960 --> 02:03:50,040 Speaker 18: we see this year is everything we've loved about this 2480 02:03:50,160 --> 02:03:52,720 Speaker 18: team for the last few years, but it's also fresh, 2481 02:03:53,160 --> 02:03:55,800 Speaker 18: also a little different, takes advantage of the fact that 2482 02:03:55,880 --> 02:03:58,240 Speaker 18: they have added, in my opinion, a lot of really 2483 02:03:58,280 --> 02:04:03,000 Speaker 18: interesting talent to this rock. Appreciate good luck go Bills. 2484 02:04:04,040 --> 02:04:05,000 Speaker 8: All right, thanks Mike. 2485 02:04:06,800 --> 02:04:10,360 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean we haven't really talked about it a 2486 02:04:10,520 --> 02:04:15,360 Speaker 9: ton as far as like having a season long impact, 2487 02:04:16,120 --> 02:04:18,800 Speaker 9: but if things go well here in terms of how 2488 02:04:19,320 --> 02:04:23,000 Speaker 9: coach McDermott calls this thing and he can capably balance 2489 02:04:23,120 --> 02:04:28,120 Speaker 9: that with all of the head coach responsibilities on game day, Steve, 2490 02:04:28,920 --> 02:04:33,280 Speaker 9: you know, the Bills could really have something different to 2491 02:04:33,440 --> 02:04:37,600 Speaker 9: add to the equation that isn't necessarily player related. It's 2492 02:04:37,680 --> 02:04:42,600 Speaker 9: scheme related, it's coaching, play call related. And if it 2493 02:04:42,680 --> 02:04:45,200 Speaker 9: can raise the level of this defense another notch, it 2494 02:04:45,360 --> 02:04:47,240 Speaker 9: might be what puts this team over the hump. 2495 02:04:48,080 --> 02:04:48,280 Speaker 8: Yeah. 2496 02:04:48,360 --> 02:04:52,320 Speaker 2: Perhaps, and we've said it. Their defense has been really 2497 02:04:52,440 --> 02:04:59,480 Speaker 2: really good every week during the McDermott era under Leslie Frasier. 2498 02:04:59,560 --> 02:05:03,480 Speaker 2: But while it's been really good every week, it's rarely 2499 02:05:03,560 --> 02:05:07,680 Speaker 2: been spectacular. There have been games where you know, they've 2500 02:05:08,560 --> 02:05:10,840 Speaker 2: you know, they've put together a really good effort and 2501 02:05:11,000 --> 02:05:13,400 Speaker 2: we're a big we're big part, if not the main 2502 02:05:13,520 --> 02:05:18,200 Speaker 2: part of a Bill's Bill's victory. But they haven't been 2503 02:05:18,280 --> 02:05:22,040 Speaker 2: big sack, big turnover, splash play kind of a defense. 2504 02:05:22,840 --> 02:05:25,400 Speaker 2: They have done that. They've had splash plays and had that, 2505 02:05:25,560 --> 02:05:28,640 Speaker 2: but that was not their defining there's not their defining trait. 2506 02:05:31,480 --> 02:05:34,080 Speaker 2: I would I think sometimes you'd almost rather have that 2507 02:05:34,280 --> 02:05:37,320 Speaker 2: be their trade and give up you know, like even 2508 02:05:37,360 --> 02:05:39,960 Speaker 2: the Pittsburgh game, there may be a time when you 2509 02:05:40,040 --> 02:05:43,320 Speaker 2: give up a sixty five yard touchdown run, but there's 2510 02:05:43,320 --> 02:05:45,480 Speaker 2: also gonna be games where you get four sacks and 2511 02:05:45,960 --> 02:05:49,400 Speaker 2: sack strip fumbles and pick sixes and scoop and scores 2512 02:05:49,480 --> 02:05:50,000 Speaker 2: and and. 2513 02:05:50,080 --> 02:05:50,400 Speaker 8: All of that. 2514 02:05:53,040 --> 02:05:56,840 Speaker 2: If you can get it to balance be imbalanced in 2515 02:05:56,960 --> 02:06:00,840 Speaker 2: your favor in all those explosive plays defensive, I think 2516 02:06:00,880 --> 02:06:05,440 Speaker 2: you'd almost take it. Yes, it's a bigger risk, but 2517 02:06:05,520 --> 02:06:11,040 Speaker 2: the rewards are great, and we've seen them be very 2518 02:06:11,160 --> 02:06:15,440 Speaker 2: steady defensively. And maybe that's maybe we just get tired 2519 02:06:15,480 --> 02:06:16,840 Speaker 2: of looking at it, you know. I don't know. Maybe 2520 02:06:16,880 --> 02:06:19,800 Speaker 2: it's just you take it for granted right where the 2521 02:06:19,960 --> 02:06:22,480 Speaker 2: only fun stuff you see is on the offensive side 2522 02:06:22,480 --> 02:06:24,680 Speaker 2: of the ball. Right, that's the only fun thing we 2523 02:06:24,800 --> 02:06:28,200 Speaker 2: ever get to see basically on occasional sack where the 2524 02:06:28,440 --> 02:06:30,440 Speaker 2: quarterback holds on to it, holds on to it, holds 2525 02:06:30,480 --> 02:06:33,280 Speaker 2: on to it, and he gets wrestled down or a 2526 02:06:33,360 --> 02:06:38,760 Speaker 2: tipped interception. But it'd be fun to have some fun 2527 02:06:38,840 --> 02:06:41,760 Speaker 2: plays on the defensive side. And maybe Sean McDermott and 2528 02:06:41,760 --> 02:06:43,720 Speaker 2: his play calling will bring that. I don't think that 2529 02:06:43,920 --> 02:06:47,720 Speaker 2: happens without risking, though, I think you always give. There's 2530 02:06:47,720 --> 02:06:49,880 Speaker 2: always a risk that you give up an explosive run 2531 02:06:49,960 --> 02:06:52,200 Speaker 2: down the right side in the Pittsburgh game. You know, 2532 02:06:52,320 --> 02:06:56,600 Speaker 2: in the preseason game, you risk that, or you risk 2533 02:06:56,680 --> 02:06:58,400 Speaker 2: going man to man if somebody gets over the top 2534 02:06:58,440 --> 02:07:00,560 Speaker 2: of and then it's a touchdown. The other way, you 2535 02:07:00,760 --> 02:07:03,040 Speaker 2: risk it when you go for it, and there'll be 2536 02:07:03,200 --> 02:07:07,000 Speaker 2: more risk if you get more aggressive defensively. But if 2537 02:07:07,040 --> 02:07:09,960 Speaker 2: you can time it right and you have a feel 2538 02:07:10,040 --> 02:07:13,040 Speaker 2: for it, and your coach uses analytics and they call 2539 02:07:13,160 --> 02:07:16,920 Speaker 2: those defenses at the right time, then you can tip 2540 02:07:17,000 --> 02:07:20,360 Speaker 2: that balance vastly in your favor and you do get 2541 02:07:20,400 --> 02:07:22,880 Speaker 2: a bunch of splash plays without ever giving up one 2542 02:07:22,880 --> 02:07:25,800 Speaker 2: of those explosives. That's kind of what we're shooting for, 2543 02:07:25,880 --> 02:07:28,720 Speaker 2: I think, and that's what we're hoping right shooting for well. 2544 02:07:28,880 --> 02:07:32,600 Speaker 9: And that's the exact phrase that coach McDermott used when 2545 02:07:32,640 --> 02:07:34,760 Speaker 9: somebody asked him how aggressive are you going to be? 2546 02:07:35,000 --> 02:07:38,080 Speaker 8: He used the phrase calculated risk. 2547 02:07:38,760 --> 02:07:42,400 Speaker 9: So while it sounds like he's being cautious, I was 2548 02:07:42,480 --> 02:07:45,000 Speaker 9: actually encouraged to hear it because that means he's willing 2549 02:07:45,120 --> 02:07:45,920 Speaker 9: to take some risk. 2550 02:07:46,600 --> 02:07:48,240 Speaker 8: It might be calculated, but it's risk. 2551 02:07:48,360 --> 02:07:48,800 Speaker 2: Nonetheless. 2552 02:07:48,960 --> 02:07:49,880 Speaker 8: I like it, right. 2553 02:07:50,280 --> 02:07:52,760 Speaker 2: I mean, that's the thing. If they start blitzing a 2554 02:07:52,800 --> 02:07:54,640 Speaker 2: lot and bringing more pressure and all that they're going 2555 02:07:54,680 --> 02:07:57,280 Speaker 2: to leave themselves vulnerable at some point with just with 2556 02:07:57,480 --> 02:08:01,040 Speaker 2: sheer numbers. And once you do that, if a quarterback 2557 02:08:01,120 --> 02:08:03,680 Speaker 2: makes a play on you, you're gonna get nicked. So 2558 02:08:05,720 --> 02:08:08,280 Speaker 2: we'll see how much of that he has to do. 2559 02:08:08,400 --> 02:08:10,160 Speaker 2: And you know, certainly if the Bills are up by 2560 02:08:10,280 --> 02:08:12,120 Speaker 2: double digits, there ain't gonna be a you need to 2561 02:08:12,160 --> 02:08:14,120 Speaker 2: go on the extra tend and the extra pressure. We'll 2562 02:08:14,160 --> 02:08:15,640 Speaker 2: make him earn it the long way, which is what 2563 02:08:15,720 --> 02:08:19,160 Speaker 2: they've always done here in Buffalo under McDermott. Teams kind 2564 02:08:19,160 --> 02:08:20,600 Speaker 2: of had to go the long way to get into 2565 02:08:20,640 --> 02:08:23,480 Speaker 2: the end zone. And it's hard to string that many 2566 02:08:23,520 --> 02:08:26,480 Speaker 2: good plays together against the talents of defense, whether they're 2567 02:08:26,480 --> 02:08:32,120 Speaker 2: being aggressive or not. It's worked in the past. Yeah, 2568 02:08:32,240 --> 02:08:34,560 Speaker 2: but as we all know, there's still kind of a 2569 02:08:34,600 --> 02:08:36,360 Speaker 2: big hump that the Bills would like to get over. 2570 02:08:36,720 --> 02:08:38,560 Speaker 2: Maybe this will be the missing ingredient or one of 2571 02:08:38,600 --> 02:08:39,440 Speaker 2: the missing ingredients. 2572 02:08:40,680 --> 02:08:43,120 Speaker 9: Let's quickly go to the tweet sheet to get some 2573 02:08:43,240 --> 02:08:45,480 Speaker 9: comments from you there as far as your key to 2574 02:08:45,600 --> 02:08:48,760 Speaker 9: victory for the Bills tonight over the Jets tweet sheet 2575 02:08:48,880 --> 02:08:51,520 Speaker 9: brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official equipment 2576 02:08:51,560 --> 02:08:55,160 Speaker 9: moving system of the Buffalo Bills. LD Sports says, key 2577 02:08:55,200 --> 02:08:57,400 Speaker 9: to tonight's game, Bill's whole line holding up to Jets 2578 02:08:57,440 --> 02:08:57,800 Speaker 9: D line. 2579 02:08:57,840 --> 02:08:59,840 Speaker 8: They have a very good D line, especially Quinn Will. 2580 02:08:59,880 --> 02:09:02,960 Speaker 9: You need to give Josh Allen time and room always 2581 02:09:03,120 --> 02:09:07,440 Speaker 9: O line issue for the Bills, and we've kind of 2582 02:09:07,440 --> 02:09:09,040 Speaker 9: addressed that today, So I'm going to move on to 2583 02:09:09,120 --> 02:09:13,000 Speaker 9: the next one. Connor says, pass rush exclamation point. Rogers 2584 02:09:13,080 --> 02:09:16,120 Speaker 9: is notorious for the quick step and throw. His fast 2585 02:09:16,160 --> 02:09:19,200 Speaker 9: release is one way he negates the pass rush. If 2586 02:09:19,280 --> 02:09:22,760 Speaker 9: the Bills defense can get home early and make him uncomfortable, 2587 02:09:23,040 --> 02:09:24,720 Speaker 9: Buffalo will have a good chance to win. 2588 02:09:25,120 --> 02:09:25,720 Speaker 8: Go Bills. 2589 02:09:26,040 --> 02:09:27,840 Speaker 9: Well, the way you do that, Steve is you got 2590 02:09:27,960 --> 02:09:30,280 Speaker 9: to get up in the face of whoever his first 2591 02:09:30,440 --> 02:09:34,680 Speaker 9: read is and take that away. The Bills did that 2592 02:09:34,720 --> 02:09:36,440 Speaker 9: a couple of years ago with great effect in this 2593 02:09:36,560 --> 02:09:39,960 Speaker 9: against Tua, actually knocked him out of the game early. 2594 02:09:42,080 --> 02:09:46,280 Speaker 9: Rogers is pretty wily, you know, soon to turn forty. 2595 02:09:46,360 --> 02:09:51,200 Speaker 9: He's not easily fooled. I think go a long way 2596 02:09:51,200 --> 02:09:51,880 Speaker 9: to helping things. 2597 02:09:52,000 --> 02:09:53,800 Speaker 2: I think if you're the Jets, though, and you've seen 2598 02:09:53,880 --> 02:09:55,640 Speaker 2: the Bills and you've got a handle on him, I 2599 02:09:55,680 --> 02:09:57,880 Speaker 2: think and one of the things aggressive coaches. You know, 2600 02:09:57,920 --> 02:09:59,680 Speaker 2: I think Robert Solo will be on board with this. 2601 02:10:01,160 --> 02:10:02,960 Speaker 2: Don't you come out, you give a pump fake and 2602 02:10:03,040 --> 02:10:05,120 Speaker 2: send somebody and try and hit him right out of 2603 02:10:05,160 --> 02:10:07,440 Speaker 2: the gate like the Bills did to the Jets last 2604 02:10:07,520 --> 02:10:08,640 Speaker 2: year with digs. 2605 02:10:08,360 --> 02:10:10,360 Speaker 8: Forty two first meeting. 2606 02:10:11,120 --> 02:10:12,880 Speaker 2: I think you go out and maybe play action and 2607 02:10:13,040 --> 02:10:14,840 Speaker 2: try and go right over the top on the Bills 2608 02:10:14,920 --> 02:10:18,080 Speaker 2: right out of the gate if they think they're gonna 2609 02:10:18,080 --> 02:10:20,240 Speaker 2: get home fast, or if they're going to jump arount 2610 02:10:20,280 --> 02:10:21,680 Speaker 2: and try and squad on a route and get a 2611 02:10:21,720 --> 02:10:23,920 Speaker 2: pick right out of the gate. Don't you go the 2612 02:10:24,000 --> 02:10:25,720 Speaker 2: other way. Don't you kind of come out and say 2613 02:10:25,880 --> 02:10:28,960 Speaker 2: a little play fake and then go deep right over 2614 02:10:29,040 --> 02:10:29,360 Speaker 2: the top. 2615 02:10:32,080 --> 02:10:32,280 Speaker 8: Yeah. 2616 02:10:32,480 --> 02:10:34,560 Speaker 9: I mean this is in a defense that has historically 2617 02:10:34,640 --> 02:10:36,280 Speaker 9: given up big plays, But I get your point. 2618 02:10:36,440 --> 02:10:38,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I'm I think you come out and try 2619 02:10:38,840 --> 02:10:41,040 Speaker 2: and punch somebody right in the mouth. Both sides. Either 2620 02:10:41,080 --> 02:10:43,120 Speaker 2: the defense defense comes out and tries to punch them 2621 02:10:43,120 --> 02:10:44,840 Speaker 2: in the mouth with a pressure sack or a pick, 2622 02:10:45,520 --> 02:10:48,200 Speaker 2: and the offense comes out trying to nick them go 2623 02:10:48,360 --> 02:10:55,600 Speaker 2: deep right out of the gate. So you know, it's 2624 02:10:55,640 --> 02:10:59,440 Speaker 2: a little bit like Sean Payton yesterday, surprise on side 2625 02:10:59,480 --> 02:11:03,560 Speaker 2: on the opening kickoff. A little bit of that, Yeah, 2626 02:11:03,600 --> 02:11:05,160 Speaker 2: a little bit of that here for the Jets, I 2627 02:11:05,240 --> 02:11:07,360 Speaker 2: think in Robert solom maybe a little bit of that 2628 02:11:07,480 --> 02:11:09,640 Speaker 2: coming out of the gate for the for the Green 2629 02:11:09,720 --> 02:11:13,920 Speaker 2: Bay offense or the New York Jets of I'm sorry, 2630 02:11:13,960 --> 02:11:16,680 Speaker 2: the New York Jet offense, the Green Bay offense. The 2631 02:11:16,720 --> 02:11:18,000 Speaker 2: New York Jets are running. 2632 02:11:21,320 --> 02:11:22,000 Speaker 8: Uh quickly. 2633 02:11:22,120 --> 02:11:27,080 Speaker 9: Rick says, simple minimum, minimal penalties, three max and zero turnovers. 2634 02:11:27,080 --> 02:11:29,560 Speaker 8: Everything else will take care of itself. PS. We're all 2635 02:11:29,600 --> 02:11:33,680 Speaker 8: tired of the jetside please shut them up. Exclamation point. 2636 02:11:34,080 --> 02:11:36,560 Speaker 9: We will put an exclamation point on this segment because 2637 02:11:36,560 --> 02:11:38,040 Speaker 9: we've got to take a break here. But some final 2638 02:11:38,080 --> 02:11:40,040 Speaker 9: thoughts on the tweet sheet next here on One Bill's Live. 2639 02:11:40,120 --> 02:11:57,960 Speaker 8: Stay tuned all right back here on one Bill's Lives. 2640 02:11:58,000 --> 02:11:58,840 Speaker 8: Some final thoughts on. 2641 02:11:58,840 --> 02:12:01,240 Speaker 9: The tweet sheet as far as the key to victory 2642 02:12:01,400 --> 02:12:04,600 Speaker 9: for tonight's game for the Bills, blue Shirt Guy says, offense, 2643 02:12:05,400 --> 02:12:08,959 Speaker 9: no sugar, Hi, Josh, take what the defense gives you. Defense, 2644 02:12:09,080 --> 02:12:12,800 Speaker 9: disrupt the offense is timing. Watch the weak spot, which 2645 02:12:12,880 --> 02:12:16,640 Speaker 9: is middle linebacker. In Blue Shirt Guy's opinion, CJ. Moseley 2646 02:12:16,760 --> 02:12:19,120 Speaker 9: not deemed to be all that great in coverage. Gonna 2647 02:12:19,120 --> 02:12:20,760 Speaker 9: be interesting to see if they take him off the 2648 02:12:20,840 --> 02:12:25,760 Speaker 9: field in those passing situations. Billy says, stop the run. 2649 02:12:26,240 --> 02:12:28,640 Speaker 9: While Rogers has been hyped, there's a reason that Jets 2650 02:12:28,720 --> 02:12:31,400 Speaker 9: grab Dalvin Cook. I see twelve to fifteen carries for 2651 02:12:31,480 --> 02:12:35,000 Speaker 9: both him and Breese Hall. Their best path to win 2652 02:12:35,320 --> 02:12:37,600 Speaker 9: is limit the amount of times Allen has the ball. 2653 02:12:37,640 --> 02:12:39,720 Speaker 2: What do you think of that approach, Steve Well, I 2654 02:12:39,720 --> 02:12:41,920 Speaker 2: don't know too much about the running game, doing being 2655 02:12:41,960 --> 02:12:44,200 Speaker 2: the key to it. It might be Rogers taking, you know, 2656 02:12:44,400 --> 02:12:45,840 Speaker 2: just staying on the field, but I think it's a 2657 02:12:45,880 --> 02:12:49,160 Speaker 2: good call. Jets know how tough Allen is to beat, 2658 02:12:49,600 --> 02:12:51,080 Speaker 2: and the only best way to do just have him 2659 02:12:51,680 --> 02:12:54,520 Speaker 2: sit on the sideline. So don't think the Jets will 2660 02:12:54,560 --> 02:12:59,200 Speaker 2: turn down chance at an explosive play. But they need 2661 02:12:59,280 --> 02:13:01,080 Speaker 2: the football and they need to keep the ball out 2662 02:13:01,120 --> 02:13:03,680 Speaker 2: of Josh's hands because as good as their defense is, 2663 02:13:04,880 --> 02:13:07,520 Speaker 2: you're playing Russian Roulette with every series in my opinion, 2664 02:13:07,680 --> 02:13:11,000 Speaker 2: So he's right, that's a good call. That's good point. 2665 02:13:12,720 --> 02:13:15,160 Speaker 8: Last one here comes from Josh on the tweet sheet. 2666 02:13:15,200 --> 02:13:18,040 Speaker 9: He says, kin Kid, Jets will put a ton of 2667 02:13:18,080 --> 02:13:20,880 Speaker 9: pressure on our old line, quick passes in the slot 2668 02:13:20,960 --> 02:13:24,360 Speaker 9: to neutralize the rush. He will be a component tonight 2669 02:13:24,480 --> 02:13:27,040 Speaker 9: for sure. Or whoever's in the slot, they're gonna get 2670 02:13:27,080 --> 02:13:28,840 Speaker 9: those easy throws out. They're gonna have to have a 2671 02:13:28,920 --> 02:13:31,920 Speaker 9: quick option, really, no question. Any passing play's got to 2672 02:13:31,960 --> 02:13:32,600 Speaker 9: have a quick out. 2673 02:13:34,160 --> 02:13:36,520 Speaker 8: That's it for us. Enjoy the game tonight, Steve, and 2674 02:13:36,560 --> 02:13:39,080 Speaker 8: I'll wrap it up tomorrow at noon. We'll see you 2675 02:13:39,120 --> 02:13:39,160 Speaker 8: the
