00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:35,160
Speaker 1: It is One Bill's Live, presented by Calllida Health.

2
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 2: After eleven training camp practices at Saint John Fisher University

3
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 2: in Rochester, New York, the Buffalo Bills are heading back home.

4
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 3: To Orchard Park.

5
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 2: They've spent the time together building chemistry in the dorms

6
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 2: right behind us, and now it's time to prepare for

7
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 2: the preseason. Their first preseason game this Saturday against the Giants.

8
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 2: Welcome into One Bill's Ive. I'm Maddy glab and I'm

9
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,839
Speaker 2: joined by Steve Tasker. As all the packing.

10
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 3: Up is going on right behind us.

11
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:07,639
Speaker 1: People.

12
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 3: I tailed it out of here.

13
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 4: They bring everything. I mean, it takes some weeks to

14
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 4: pack it up over in Buffalo and bring it over.

15
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 4: They bring it over one of you know, there's like

16
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 4: three trucks to do it, but they move out all

17
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 4: at once, like twenty trucks pulling stuff out of here.

18
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: So that's going on as we speak.

19
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 4: You're right, Maddie, I still like the fact that they

20
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 4: come to Saint John Fisher. They do get something out

21
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 4: of it. I don't think there's any question about it.

22
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 4: They When you throw guys together like this, you start

23
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 4: to get to know each other a little better. Hang

24
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 4: out a little more, you feel comfortable and when you

25
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 4: come in the locker room and it doesn't. And one

26
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 4: of the dynamics about being on a team in a

27
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 4: sport like the size of football roster. You know there'll

28
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 4: be sixty five guys in the locker room. You go

29
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,279
Speaker 4: in and out of there all day and there's different

30
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 4: guys in and different guys out. You feel comfortable with

31
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 4: all of them, no matter who it is. That's pretty cool.

32
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 4: And that's this. This training camp in this setting helps you.

33
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: Get to that spot.

34
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:06,639
Speaker 3: All right, give me a training camp highlight.

35
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: Oh, it doesn't have to be on the field, could

36
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 2: be off the field, could be it could be your

37
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 2: experience in Rochester halfway task.

38
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 4: No I went out, I know I did have. I

39
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 4: went without and had to pop with a good buddy

40
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 4: of mine. Light a couple of good buddies of mine

41
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 4: last night. That might have been for me. I hate drading,

42
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 4: gat I do. I don't have to bond with these guys, no,

43
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 4: I I think the highlight for me. Let me think.

44
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 4: I'll say this. I think the highlight for me is

45
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 4: getting to know this this new squad. For all you know,

46
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 4: for fans, it's it's the Buffalo Bills and all that.

47
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 4: It's a new team every year, and this one's going

48
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 4: to be different than last year's. You know, obviously you

49
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 4: got some of the guys that are faces of the franchise,

50
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 4: but the guys behind those faces are all different.

51
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: And I think there's a.

52
00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 4: Lot of guys on this squad, particularly young guy, some

53
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 4: old guys, but some young guys who are going to

54
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 4: have fantastic careers and to come out and see him,

55
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 4: you see Tradavius White out here as well, after the

56
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 4: career he has had. But there's gonna be some guys

57
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 4: on this roster that are going to be around for

58
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 4: a while, and that's kind of cool to see just

59
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 4: for the first time seeing them out here.

60
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you.

61
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 2: Put it that way, how cool is it to witness

62
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 2: some of these first second third rounders out here practicing

63
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 2: in their first training camp practice as an NFL professional.

64
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 2: It is cool to kind of see the training wheels

65
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: come off a little bit as these guys have been

66
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 2: through OTA's and they're getting the playbook and their minds

67
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 2: and they're figuring out Okay, I understand this. I understand that.

68
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 2: So now it's slowing down for me, that's always fun

69
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: to see. I think a highlight for me has to

70
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 2: be the players at this point in the offseason are

71
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 2: still in a great space of it is not crazy

72
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 2: stressful at this point in the preseason, especially for the

73
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: Vets guys who aren't fighting for a roster spot. To

74
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 2: get them in that kind of headspace out here for

75
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 2: two and a half weeks, you have some really fun

76
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 2: conversations with players. You get to learn about who they are,

77
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 2: You get to learn about their families, what they did

78
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: in the off season, and kind of build that chemistry

79
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 2: with the players between you know, you and and a

80
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 2: wide receiver or somebody. And that's my favorite part about

81
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 2: training camp is is while they're building their chemistry, you

82
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 2: also get to work on it with a slew of players.

83
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: Yeah.

84
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 4: And it's it's interesting too because you see guys come back,

85
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 4: like like we had Osiris Torrents on the show yesterday

86
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 4: and Cybo sits down between Brownie and I and I mean,

87
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 4: just a blink of an eye, he's a third year player,

88
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 4: I know, and he you know, he always sep like

89
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 4: the young guy, right, Brownie said. Brownie started talking about

90
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 4: him being his third year, So I was like wait, wait, yeah,

91
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 4: his second year is completely done here, it is his

92
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 4: third training camp, like, oh my gosh. And even Osiris

93
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 4: was sitting here, you could tell he's just like, Eh,

94
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 4: this is my this is my thing. I'm comfortable here,

95
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 4: this is my vibe. I know, my guys. I'm one

96
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 4: of the crew. Just a real comfortable professional athlete on

97
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 4: a good team with a solidified role, A completely different

98
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 4: animal than he was eighteen months ago, you know. And

99
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 4: it's those kind of transformations happened seemingly overnight. Christian Benford

100
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 4: walks in here. We talked about it early in camp.

101
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 4: He's the alpha male in the dB room, which is like, wow,

102
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 4: think about that.

103
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 2: And that was day one. Christian Benford is out here

104
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 2: making plays. The first few days of camp. You're looking

105
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: around trying to figure out who is that guy that

106
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 2: went from someplace at the end of the season last

107
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 2: year but took a big jump heading into the twenty

108
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 2: twenty five season, and watching the defense, it was easy

109
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 2: to see Christian Benford may have not made the biggest jump,

110
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 2: but he is so consistent out there in that defense.

111
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 2: He understands it so well to this point, his technique

112
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 2: is off the charts and he uses that to get

113
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 2: in the way and bat down so many different balls.

114
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 2: We saw pass break up after pass breakup out of

115
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 2: Christian Benford in camp.

116
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 4: His play has been top flight since he was rookie,

117
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 4: stepped on the fields a six round draft pick and

118
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,919
Speaker 4: started day one. I mean, that's unprecedented and that has continued.

119
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 4: But he comes out here now and his role goes

120
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 4: so far beyond CEB one. I mean, he's he's putting

121
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 4: his arm around Max Harrison. He's talking to you know,

122
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 4: and he you know, he talked to Max Harrison right

123
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 4: the moment he got injured. Set of prayer for him

124
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 4: right there. He's out here on these one on ones

125
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 4: when the guys are really competing hard one on one,

126
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 4: he's chirping at everybody, his guys there, guys. He did

127
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 4: not do that. Two years ago. He signed a new contract,

128
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 4: he's paid like a number one, he's acting like it,

129
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 4: and that's something that I think is a deliberate decision

130
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,479
Speaker 4: on his part. Said I'm gonna be that guy and

131
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 4: give these guys what I wanted from a CB one

132
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 4: on when I was playing, and he has really come

133
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 4: through in a big way. I think that's been I

134
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 4: think my highlight something like that. I and this does

135
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 4: this question like what's your highlight? Yep, it goes right

136
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 4: into our question for today is you know, who do

137
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 4: you want to see pop in this in this Giants

138
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 4: preseason opener? I mean, Josh and those guys aren't gonna play,

139
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 4: but who you gonna be watching?

140
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: And I'll say this too. I was talking.

141
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 4: I was talking about we were thinking about Keon Coleman

142
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 4: and how big a story he has been. People want

143
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 4: to see him jump and you think, okay, he's done this.

144
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 4: He had a couple he had a good day today.

145
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 4: You know, they were doing stuff and you know what

146
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 4: strikes me about Keon and I hadn't thought about it

147
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 4: until you and I started talking about this is today

148
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 4: right now. This has been an incredibly different training camp

149
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 4: for him because of how the pressure they have put

150
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 4: on him, because of the times they have thrown to him.

151
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 4: They are targeting him a ton in this training camp.

152
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 4: They are they want him to throw into that role fast,

153
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 4: that big, physical, number one wide receiver kind of guy.

154
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 4: And I think the way he's handling, you know, he's

155
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 4: a little bit more comfortable now in his second training

156
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 4: camp and going through the injury he did last year

157
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 4: and knowing how you know, knowing what he knows now

158
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 4: that he didn't know just twelve months ago. What a

159
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 4: different camp this has been for him as far as expectations,

160
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 4: his own, you know, the way he's handled it, the

161
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 4: kind of opportunities they've given him. Yeah, he was a

162
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 4: little bit anonymous last training camp and he couldn't be

163
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 4: anonymous in this training camp. They're throwing him the ball

164
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 4: all day every day.

165
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 2: Josh Allen was talking about building chemistry with the new

166
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 2: wide receivers Elijah Moore and Joshua Palmer. This training camp,

167
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 2: he threw wide receiver Keon Coleman, a second player into

168
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 2: the mix of guys. He's been working with time on

169
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 2: task to make sure they're on the same page come

170
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: week one. It's been evident in training camp they are

171
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 2: getting Keon Coleman the ball so much to make sure, Josh, Keon,

172
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 2: are you guys in a good spot for week one?

173
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 3: Because you have to be, because.

174
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 2: It's time for Keon Coleman to step up in year

175
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 2: two and we need somebody who's going to be that

176
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 2: physical wide receiver at the catch point to go beat

177
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 2: up a dB and bring the ball down in the

178
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 2: corner of the end zone, which we saw on several

179
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,079
Speaker 2: different occasions during training camp.

180
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, he has been a real physical presence in the

181
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 4: back end of the defense. Has Keon certainly he plays

182
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,559
Speaker 4: that role for the offense, and they've got a couple

183
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 4: other guys playing wide receiver that are kind of trying

184
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 4: to work into that as well. You get a Christian

185
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 4: Wilkerson who is a big dude. Leviska Chanault also a

186
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 4: big dude. So they've got like three guys like Keon,

187
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 4: Laviska and Christian Wilkerson. All three of those guys are

188
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 4: built out like that. They're thick, physical dudes, So some

189
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 4: they want that in this offense. And right now, Keon

190
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 4: is easily the top dog in that threesome. I think

191
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 4: it'll be interesting to see what role and how prominent

192
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 4: that is on a week to week basis during the

193
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 4: regular season.

194
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 2: Physicality is important at the catchpoint, but physicality is also

195
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 2: important when it comes to yak Buffalo was so good

196
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 2: at getting yak yards last season on offense, they ranked

197
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 2: top five in the NFL. You would expect offensive coordinator

198
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 2: Joe Brady wants that to continue in twenty twenty five

199
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 2: with a big body receiver like Kean Coleman, who came

200
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 2: into this offseason looking more muscular. Our question for you

201
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 2: today is who or what will you have your eye

202
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 2: on in this Saturday's preseason opener against the Giants. You

203
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 2: can tweet at us or give us a call at

204
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,839
Speaker 2: eighth three, five point fifty, the fone mines are open

205
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 2: for you. We want to get into our news and

206
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 2: notes and go around the NFL because there are some

207
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 2: updates that Bill's head coach Sean McDermott had in terms

208
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 2: of player injuries and who would be in Saturday's game

209
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 2: against the Giants. Around the NFL is presented by Clyde Health,

210
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 2: the official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills, and coach

211
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 2: McDermott started out Thursday mornings press Conferences press conference by

212
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 2: announcing a slew of players who would not be practicing.

213
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 3: That list is as follows.

214
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: Cedric Van Pran Granger, Maxwell Harriston, Alec Anderson, Khalil Shakir Cole,

215
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 2: Bishop Curtis, Samuel Shaq, Thompson, Kaden Prather, Tyler Bass, Tyler Grabile,

216
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 2: and Taylor rap I would expect that group not to

217
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:36,559
Speaker 2: be a.

218
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 3: Part of Saturday's preseason game.

219
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 2: We will see some of these guys like Khalil Shakir

220
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 2: and Taylor Rapp are more of a week to week

221
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 2: type of injury. Rap is a new addition to the

222
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 2: list with that knee injury, and Sean McDermott said he

223
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 2: could be out give or take a week. In terms

224
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 2: of the plan for Josh Allen, coach McDermott said Josh

225
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 2: Allen will not start or play at all in Saturday's

226
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 2: preseason game against the Giants. McDermott did announce that Mitchell

227
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,559
Speaker 2: Trubisky will start in Allen's place. And Trubisky is somebody

228
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 2: who is in his third year on Buffalo, and you

229
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 2: can see the comfortability in this offense. Last year when

230
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 2: he was on this team in the preseason, it was

231
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 2: it was a little bit up and down. But this

232
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 2: year he has put consistent stretches together where it looks

233
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 2: like in the.

234
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 3: Pocket he knows what he's doing.

235
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 2: He has a good rapport with wide receivers, he can

236
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 2: throw guys open.

237
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 3: I'm excited to.

238
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 2: See Trubisky fight for that second quarterback spot this preseason.

239
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 4: Next three games, running I've been talking about whether you know,

240
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 4: is it gonna be Trubisky, is gonna stay Trubisky than

241
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 4: Mike White, then Shane Bouchell, or is he gonna flip

242
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 4: Mike White and Trubisky behind Josh.

243
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: I don't know the You certainly want the.

244
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 4: Best guy available if Josh goes down, But I do

245
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 4: know that Trubisky he is here once went left came back.

246
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,199
Speaker 4: I know that when he was here, Josh really appreciated

247
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 4: him in the room helping him get ready because I

248
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 4: think they see the game and the offense and their options.

249
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 4: I think they see it a lot alike, and Josh

250
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 4: needs that in the room with him. But by the

251
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 4: same token, he also needs somebody who, like a Mike

252
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 4: White or whoever can play, but also who says, wait

253
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 4: a minute, don't look a look at this over you know,

254
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 4: a different set of eyes. So it's it's the quarterback

255
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 4: room's job just to get Josh ready to play, which

256
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 4: means they don't have to play or be ready to

257
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,719
Speaker 4: play one of them does. They got to have one

258
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 4: guy that can get step in if Josh go to

259
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 4: finish a game, hopefully when the Bills are up by

260
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 4: thirty and Josh in a baseball cap. But you know,

261
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 4: if if something does happen to Josh, you gotta have

262
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 4: a guy that can play and run the offense. Trubisky's

263
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 4: got some experience. He has played very steady in this

264
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 4: training camp. It'll be interesting to see if there is

265
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 4: any competition there at all for the number two. I

266
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 4: don't think the Saint question Mike White and Trubisky, you

267
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 4: are going to be in the building when camp finally

268
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 4: breaks in regular arrives, but we'll see what order they're in.

269
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 2: Trubisky was on the Bills in twenty twenty one, spent

270
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two and twenty three with the Steelers. Back

271
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 2: on the Bills last season, so this is his first

272
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 2: time where he's had two years in a row in

273
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 2: this system that's shown out on the practice field. There's

274
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 2: some balls where he has a beautiful touch to his throws.

275
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 3: Trubisky said, this.

276
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 2: Offseason, you know, I've been working on my rotation on

277
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 2: ball placement. I see that showing up in training camp already.

278
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 2: He's impressed with how he's done so far, and he

279
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 2: wants that to continue in preseason game number one against

280
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 2: the Giants on Saturday in terms of other injuries Tasker

281
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 2: that you know are interesting for this point in the preseason.

282
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 3: Tyler Bass is an interesting injury.

283
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 2: He's been out for a chunk of training camp dealing

284
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 2: with a pelvic injury.

285
00:14:58,600 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 3: Coach McDermott was asked.

286
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 2: About out, what are you guys gonna do in Saturday's

287
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 2: preseason game because you need to.

288
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 3: Have a kicker present.

289
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 2: We saw running back Ray Davis out there in the

290
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 2: Return of the Blue and Red scrimmage as an emergency kicker,

291
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 2: and McDermott was asked, you know, is Davis.

292
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,359
Speaker 3: Gonna be in there on Saturday? Do you have anybody?

293
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 3: Is Bass coming back?

294
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 2: McDermott said, we had to work out last night with

295
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 2: a couple guys. We'll see where that goes, but we

296
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 2: need somebody in that kicker, right.

297
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 4: They kicked out a couple, They worked out a couple

298
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 4: of kickers last night. I would anticipate they signed one

299
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 4: of those guys, knowing that Bass's injury is not season threatening.

300
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 4: They yeah, so I don't think.

301
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: Ray Daves go out there, man, and it is a

302
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: preseason game. They might just say, you know what we're

303
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: going for it.

304
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 4: We're not kicking any field goals, we're not, and we're

305
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 4: going to go for two on the extra points and

306
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 4: work on our two point play. It's just not that

307
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 4: big a deal. And we don't want to waste a

308
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 4: roster spot on a kicker that has no We don't

309
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 4: want to make the team, let alone have a chance

310
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 4: to make the team, So they could do that. I

311
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 4: don't know if they will or not. We'll we'll see.

312
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 4: It'll be interesting to see if they do go in

313
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 4: there without a kicker and.

314
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 2: We're going for it on fourth and fifteen. Yeah, so

315
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 2: what do you do so exactly. Mcdermidt did say the

316
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 2: starters will play about a quarter minus Josh Allen, so

317
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 2: it'll be interesting to see which starters will be out there.

318
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 2: There are some starters right now that are just injured

319
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 2: or are coming back from injuries that you would think, hey,

320
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 2: we're just going to give them some time before we

321
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 2: throw them in a preseason game.

322
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 3: I'm also interested to see.

323
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 2: What the plan is for Josh Allen in the preseason.

324
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 2: You would assume that he's going to get a quarter

325
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 2: or so in a game here, but Sean McDermott said,

326
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 2: you know, we'll see how it goes. We'll be in

327
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 2: communication with him and Josh. Allen spoke to media. To

328
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 2: Dane was like, I'm gonna do what my coaches tell

329
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 2: me to do, and I believe in whatever the plan

330
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 2: they have for me. Mc dermot said, Allen's in a

331
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,719
Speaker 2: great place and they feel like he's he's done what

332
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 2: he needs to do throughout training camp, you know, uptil.

333
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 4: I would imagine he gets some time against Chicago and

334
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 4: Chicago he'll go in and take some live game reps,

335
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 4: you know, half ten twelve snaps or so, maybe a

336
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,640
Speaker 4: quarter even depending on how the possessions go, and then

337
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 4: that'll be it for the preseason. It doesn't surprise me

338
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,199
Speaker 4: he's not going to play in this one. And but

339
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 4: I'll say this that there are a couple, like you mentioned,

340
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 4: there are a couple of starters. Is Spencer Brown gonna

341
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 4: take reps? You know, I mean he's been back.

342
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 3: In Dawson Knox.

343
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: Dawson Knox exactly.

344
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 4: All Khalisha kars out with a high ankle, so is

345
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 4: Elijah Moore, Keon Coleman and Josh Palm are going to

346
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 4: be the three probably and on defense, Taylor Rap and

347
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 4: col Bishop. So it looks like either Cam Lewis, DeMar Hamlin,

348
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,399
Speaker 4: Derek Forrest in one day owned all those guys.

349
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 2: McDermott said, Damar Hamlin has been having a great camp.

350
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:23,360
Speaker 2: Cole Bishop has missed several practices, which is so unfortunate

351
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 2: because here's a safety who has drafted a year ago

352
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 2: early and Buffalo has a plan in place to get

353
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 2: this guy into the fold right away. Gets hurt preseason

354
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:41,439
Speaker 2: last year, missed a huge amount of time started in

355
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:46,119
Speaker 2: a few games last year during his rookie season. You're thinking, Okay,

356
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 2: this is the season that Cole Bishop is going to

357
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 2: take over as a starting safety and is now missing

358
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 2: training camp practices in addition to Taylor Rap the guy

359
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 2: you're supposed to be starting next to. So then mental

360
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,359
Speaker 2: reps become so important for those two. McDermott was asked

361
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 2: about what they're missing out on today and he said,

362
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 2: think about Mica Hyde and Jordan Poyer, how they had

363
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 2: that invisible language with each other. That's what they're missing

364
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 2: out on in practices where we're not yet installing week one,

365
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 2: week two things. We're just trying to get on the

366
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 2: same page as a defense.

367
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know you're right, mental reps are important.

368
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 4: But the Bills, they need somebody to take actual physical

369
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 4: reps in the game, they need somebody to play. Neither

370
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 4: one of those guys can get into play, so that

371
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 4: leaves them with four healthy safeties or guys designated as

372
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 4: as completely as safeties. You could make a case that

373
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 4: you know that the the handcock, the draft pick, could

374
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 4: you know, slide back behind his nickel spot where he's

375
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 4: backing up Tarren Johnson. But you've got to have two

376
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 4: safeties to play, and neither one those guys are available.

377
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,120
Speaker 4: It's an opportunity for these other guys. DeMar Hamlin has

378
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:10,160
Speaker 4: had a nice camp, no question, cam Lewis, Derek Forrest

379
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 4: seems like a pretty good athlete, but he's sitting third

380
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 4: on the depth chart. I don't know what that means. Yeah,

381
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 4: the soft tissue injuries have been the story of this camp.

382
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 4: The list has been very long. Nothing seems catastrophic, but

383
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 4: it's affecting their ability to evaluate who and what they

384
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 4: have as on defense and offense, on whatever their roster is.

385
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:37,919
Speaker 2: It's enough to affect practices. Because McDermott said, we tried

386
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 2: to dial it back for a couple days.

387
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 3: That has not worked.

388
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,439
Speaker 2: So we need to move on as a team and

389
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 2: get ready for the season. That's the place that they're

390
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 2: at right now in terms of other players who are

391
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 2: not injured but not a part of the mix right now.

392
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 2: In practices, running back James Cook was not present on

393
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 2: the practice field for the second day in a row,

394
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 2: as Cook awaits a new deal in his fourth season

395
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 2: as Buffalo is running back. We remember last year led

396
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,160
Speaker 2: the NFL, tied for the lead with sixteen rushing touchdowns,

397
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 2: scored over one hundred points for Buffalo's offense last year,

398
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,919
Speaker 2: and it's obvious that conversations are happening because Cook and

399
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 2: general manager Brandon Bean have said so. There's a respect

400
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 2: between both groups, and Cook's teammates have been asked about it.

401
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 2: Josh Allen was asked about it today and Alan said,

402
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 2: you know, we.

403
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:31,880
Speaker 3: Support James Cook.

404
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 2: There's a business side to this game, and a lot

405
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 2: of people on the outside don't understand just how extensive

406
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 2: that can be when you're in contract negotiations. It seems

407
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 2: like a lot of his teammates support him trying to

408
00:21:47,680 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 2: go get what he deserves. We're back on one Bill's Live.

409
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 2: Apologies for us cutting to break their you know, technical

410
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,640
Speaker 2: difficulties and it's the last day of camp for all

411
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 2: of the.

412
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 1: Lights out on us.

413
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 3: We lost to get out of here.

414
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 1: State.

415
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 4: You're welcome, yeah, but we were just talking about, you know,

416
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 4: the parameters for the James Cook contract have been set

417
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 4: by the Kyron Williams contract in LA So it's a

418
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 4: they're comparable and you can each side can compare and

419
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 4: contrast how they want. But they're going to be in

420
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 4: that ballpark and so we'll see. I would venture to

421
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 4: guess that they were in that neighborhood anyway, and we'll

422
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 4: just see how that goes. But you know, last day

423
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:48,920
Speaker 4: at camp and they turned the lights on us. But

424
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 4: you get a chance to finish that up.

425
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: But it is the last day of camp.

426
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 4: And so, as you guys know, in training camp and

427
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 4: during the regular season, after every Bills win, Maddie comes

428
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 4: into the shoe and does the Maddie Awards. So we thought, well,

429
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 4: let's do that. You're going to host the show with

430
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 4: me today. Training camp's over. Maddie did Training Camp Awards,

431
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 4: the Maddie Awards for Training Camp twenty twenty five Bills

432
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,679
Speaker 4: Training Camp Awards. All right, here we go at Magar,

433
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 4: who's the MVP.

434
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,439
Speaker 2: I know this is not a shock to anybody, and

435
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 2: I love that we have some Award show music in

436
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 2: the background because I feel like we're already in week

437
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:26,880
Speaker 2: one with this.

438
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 3: Type of setup. We are mid season form right now.

439
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 2: Everybody right there, they got us offensive MVP. It's our quarterback,

440
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 2: Josh Allen. You cannot pick anybody but him. Why It's

441
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 2: not like Josh Allen just is gonna get this every

442
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 2: single year because he comes in and he's our starting quarterback.

443
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 2: Alan had to earn it, but he earned it. In

444
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 2: my eyes, Alan, this offense flows.

445
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 3: Through Josh Allen.

446
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 2: It's easy to see that this offense last year was

447
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,360
Speaker 2: the second best in the NFL, scoring over thirty points game.

448
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 2: With the same offensive coordinator and Joe Brady, it looks

449
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,360
Speaker 2: like this group is ready to take a step forward.

450
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 2: That's thanks to a lot of things going around. It's

451
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 2: the offensive line, them returning those five starters. You have

452
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 2: the same running backs room, you have a lot of

453
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 2: the same wide receivers.

454
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,639
Speaker 3: You've got some new additions.

455
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 2: That I think are going to level up the play

456
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,439
Speaker 2: as a whole and fill in some spots that they

457
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 2: could used them last year. In terms of what Josh

458
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,119
Speaker 2: Allen did to look like an MVP on the field

459
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 2: in training camp. It's Alan's touch, It's Alan's understanding of

460
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,199
Speaker 2: Buffalo's offense. He fits in it so well it is

461
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 2: second nature to him. Alan is an elite artist at

462
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 2: ball placement, throwing receivers open. There were times and practices

463
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,239
Speaker 2: where Alan would step back to release a ball and

464
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 2: it seems like time slowed down because you're watching the

465
00:24:55,480 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 2: rotations and you're watching it spin perfectly into a playmaker arms.

466
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 2: That's why Alan deserves the MVP award of training Camp.

467
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I would agree with that.

468
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 4: The whole camp flows through that guy, right, So yeah,

469
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 4: everybody takes their their cue from him. It's his team now.

470
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 4: He deserves it and he handles it extremely well at

471
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 4: every level. The leadership, the production, the friendship and the camaraderie,

472
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 4: the chemistry thing, the extra work, the setting the standard

473
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:33,919
Speaker 4: for how hard you got to work when you're an MVP.

474
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 4: He works hard, how he handles the fans here, just

475
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 4: from top to bottom. He's becoming much more than just

476
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 4: Buffalo's favorite guy, right He's he's starting to get noted

477
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 4: because of hard knocks and a lot of that He's

478
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 4: starting to get noticed everywhere for the kind of person

479
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 4: he isn't obviously for the kind of quarterback he is.

480
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 2: I was wondering if this would be the year that

481
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 2: Alan dials it back in terms of autographs and spending

482
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 2: time with fans after practice.

483
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 3: No, I think he dialed.

484
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: It up spending time.

485
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 2: With kids, making sure photographs happened, autographs, you know, signing anything.

486
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 2: If a kid was upset because they didn't get to

487
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,880
Speaker 2: talk to josh Allen, josh Allen would run right back

488
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 2: over to them. So it's incredible to watch somebody do

489
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 2: what he does on the field and then watch him

490
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 2: care about the fans like he does off the field.

491
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 2: And then Alan was meticulous about getting on the same

492
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 2: page with new receivers Elijah Moore and Joshua Palmer. You

493
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 2: would watch him after reps in one on ones and

494
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 2: team periods go right over to Palmer and have a

495
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,439
Speaker 2: conversation of this is what I was expecting here, this

496
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 2: is what I need you to do, or this is

497
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 2: right on par with what we want doing it and

498
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 2: repping it over and over again. That's gonna pay off

499
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 2: in week one when they go to Joshua Palmer on

500
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 2: a deep ball after he separates for a touchdown.

501
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 4: So it should look like a well oiled machine by

502
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 4: week one. Yeah, but they are putting the work in

503
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 4: to get there. That Josh is the MVP training, but

504
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 4: also the offensive MVP.

505
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: Who's the defensive defensive MVP.

506
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,919
Speaker 2: We talked about him earlier, Christian Benford earns defensive MVP

507
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 2: because of the way that the cornerback came out and

508
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 2: set the standard for the defense in training camp practices.

509
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 2: He was flying all over the place in the first

510
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 2: three practices and it was consistent throughout the entire two

511
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 2: and a half weeks. We were in Rochester at Saint

512
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 2: John Fisher University, breaking up passes, lining up with wide receivers,

513
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 2: stride for stride.

514
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 3: The technique is there.

515
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 2: Benford has a makeup that's not like, Wow, you have

516
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 2: this elite crazy makeup. You've got these huge muscles. It

517
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 2: is the way that he approaches the game. It is

518
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 2: his understanding of the defense and his technique that really

519
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 2: sets him apart from everybody else.

520
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 3: He is the best on Buffalo's defense.

521
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 4: I think one of the reasons you and I and

522
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 4: Brownie and a lot of media people are talking so

523
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,919
Speaker 4: much about Christian Benford is because of the transformation that

524
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 4: he's gone through from the time he was here just

525
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 4: as a rookie, as a sixth round guy. Nobody knew

526
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 4: to this alpha cornerback one in the National Football League.

527
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 4: It's it's startling the role he plays now just two

528
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 4: years after three years now coming into three years after

529
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 4: he's drafted. He signed a big contract and we've seen

530
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 4: other players like Ed did this as well. But there

531
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,439
Speaker 4: are certain guys, and the Bills know who they are

532
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 4: because they study their players right. They get to know

533
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,159
Speaker 4: them and they understand them. There are certain guys that

534
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,360
Speaker 4: sign a big deal and trying to take a deep

535
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 4: breath and say I finally made it. And there are

536
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 4: other guys who signed the deal and say I'm gonna earn.

537
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 1: Every cent of this. You watch me.

538
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 4: Kind of guys that Benford seems to be that kind

539
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 4: of guy. He says, watch me, I'm gonna I'm gonna

540
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 4: show you what a bargain I am. That that they're

541
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 4: they're rare. The Bills have the ability to kind of

542
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 4: put their thumb on guys like that and say that

543
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 4: this is kind of a guy we want to make

544
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 4: sure stay. They got out in front of the Benford

545
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 4: contract and signed him right away, and I thought, really

546
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 4: smart move. And he has responded to it in a

547
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 4: way that you'd love a guy to respond to it.

548
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 4: I mean, he's like a different human being.

549
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 2: I think one of the coolest things about Benford's transformation

550
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 2: turning into one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL

551
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 2: is also the way he's.

552
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 3: Trying to become a better leader.

553
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 2: This season, Benford has been tasked with being more vocal.

554
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 2: Benford is a player that is reserved. He's quiet, he

555
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 2: does his own thing, he does it really well. But

556
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 2: he said, I'm trying to step outside of my comfort

557
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 2: zone to help these young players like first round draft

558
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 2: pick Maxwell Harrison along as well as other rookie defensive

559
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 2: backs on this roster. And you can see it after

560
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 2: practice the way that he's coaching guys up. So I

561
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 2: think that's a huge nod to his development as well.

562
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, it really is, and it's good to see. We'll

563
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 4: hope he has the kind of year he deserves after

564
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 4: putting in all that work and doing absolutely everything the

565
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 4: club could ask him to do. Let's see training camp

566
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 4: awards the rookie and this is an interesting the rookie

567
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 4: MVP because you know, Max went down early, so you

568
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 4: kind of it's always easy just to point to the

569
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 4: first round draft pick, but Max going down kind of

570
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 4: opens the field up a little bit.

571
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, rookie MVP in my eyes was second round defensive

572
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 2: tackle TJ.

573
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 3: Sanders.

574
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 2: The Bills traded up huge to go get TJ. Sanders

575
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 2: because of the way he can rush the passer from

576
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 2: the interior. That's been evident in training camp all the

577
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 2: way back to OTAs. This was somebody who, yes, the

578
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 2: pads weren't on, but he's flying through the offensive line

579
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 2: to go bat a ball down that showed up once

580
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 2: the pads came on at Saint John Fisher University. He's

581
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 2: been all over the place. It seems like Sanders is

582
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 2: a seamless fit in this defense. Yes, this defense is

583
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 2: a lot for rookies, and they put a lot on

584
00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 2: them because they want them to learn and grow quite

585
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,719
Speaker 2: a bit in their first year. Second year, the light

586
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 2: comes on, But it looks like in ways the light

587
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 2: is already coming on for TJ. Sanders just a couple

588
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 2: months into being a Buffalo Bill.

589
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 3: I think he showed up.

590
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 2: Consistently and often in terms of defensive linemen who are

591
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 2: pressuring and sacking the quarterback. He's got this personality that

592
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 2: is so fun to be around. It's very similar to

593
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 2: Ed Oliver dancing singing on the sidelines. So I think

594
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 2: he feels like he's in a good place in Buffalo's defense.

595
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see how he grows throughout the

596
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 2: season and how they use them to because this is

597
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 2: a defensive line that likes to rotate guys in and out.

598
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 3: Where is t J. Sanders going to be in the

599
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 3: rotation and how do we see.

600
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 2: The elite athleticism, the basketball physicality that he offers show

601
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 2: up in football.

602
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 4: It's interesting too, because we've talked a lot about this

603
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 4: in this offseason, about how many assets the Bills have

604
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 4: thrown at this d line trying to get a really

605
00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 4: good pass rush. They went out and they signed Von

606
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 4: Miller and Von It seemed like the right answer until

607
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 4: Vaughn's knee went or you know, halfway through his first

608
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 4: year here. Uh so they've They've signed another free agent

609
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 4: and Joey Bosa, same kind of thing, and hopefully it'll

610
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 4: be the flip side. Vaughan came in really never missed

611
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 4: much time with an injury, came in and got hurt.

612
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 4: You think Bosa, who's missed a lot of time will

613
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 4: come in and stay healthy, right, Flip it around. Uh,

614
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 4: But they've they've thrown a lot of acids draft picks, Rousseau, Epanessa,

615
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 4: ed Oliver Landon Jackson, now TJ. Sanders now a ton

616
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 4: of draft picks have been thrown at the D line

617
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 4: as well. And now in this last offseason, another asset

618
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 4: was thrown at this D line and coaches, they got

619
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 4: a new coach, Nielsen, so they are doing everything they

620
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 4: can to up the level of production they get there.

621
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,239
Speaker 4: And they've got a deep pool of guys to work with.

622
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 4: And they've got some guys with some chops in the

623
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 4: NFL and Rousseau and Bosa, Epanessa and guys who have

624
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 4: done at this level, and guys you think have potential

625
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 4: Dion Walker, TJ. Sanders, Javon Solomon. They've got some guys

626
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 4: who who've got some upside. So yeah, it's it is interesting.

627
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 1: The TJ.

628
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 4: Sanders comes in and has a nice thing because they

629
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 4: got him. You're right, Maddy, They need him rush the

630
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 4: passer from the d tackle spot. They're trying to get

631
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 4: somebody in the quarterback's lap fast every play, and they've

632
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 4: struggled to do that.

633
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 1: They have struggled to do that, so it'll be interesting

634
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 1: to see.

635
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 5: Yep.

636
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 2: Josh Allen to that point, said something interesting in his

637
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 2: press conference today. He said, the way the defense is

638
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 2: playing right now in training camp, I think they're going

639
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 2: to make life hard for opposing offenses the way they've

640
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 2: been able to rush the quarterback. So that in my mind,

641
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 2: ding ding ding ding ding, maybe they have what they

642
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 2: need in this defensive line and we could see a

643
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 2: big jump forward from ranking eighteenth in terms of sacks

644
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 2: to becoming top ten and really finishing those plays.

645
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 4: If that happened, is that they're not only going to

646
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 4: be higher ranked defense overall, they're gonna be a pass

647
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 4: rush that's gonna help the offense win games. All right,

648
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 4: most consistently most consistent offensive player, who's that gonna be?

649
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:16,439
Speaker 3: I'm giving it to a unit.

650
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:20,760
Speaker 2: If Josh Allen was the offensive MVP, it's also because

651
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 2: of the guys surrounding him. The offensive line deserves the

652
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 2: most consistent award on offense. Spencer Brown did miss a

653
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 2: beginning portion of training camp practices. He's back in the

654
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 2: fold now. When you have those five together, it just

655
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 2: seems so easy. They talk to each other without talking.

656
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 2: It's in their body language. It's how they operate. Connor

657
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 2: McGovern is in his second season now being Josh Allen center.

658
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 2: McGovern talked about how Allen is giving him in the

659
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 2: offensive line more responsibilities to kind of read things at

660
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage. So it helps Alan really just

661
00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 2: be able to react and play, not having to eye

662
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,799
Speaker 2: every single thing before the play happens. So I thought

663
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 2: that was a step forward for the group as a whole.

664
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,240
Speaker 2: But they're just such a strong unit. They allowed fourteen

665
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,759
Speaker 2: sacks last year the lease in the NFL, and they

666
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,359
Speaker 2: want to do better than that this year.

667
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 1: It's interesting.

668
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 4: We had Cibo on the on the show and we're

669
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 4: talking to him before and after the interview that we

670
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,879
Speaker 4: showed you, and he said a little bit of it

671
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 4: during the interview.

672
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,080
Speaker 1: Those guys talk without talking.

673
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 4: You said it, they'd speak without speaking, you know, they

674
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:30,840
Speaker 4: communicate without verbalizing. It's head nod, it's a hand motion,

675
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 4: it's or it's a one word, a very succinct communication.

676
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 4: And Cybo said, you know, I've heard this conversation about

677
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 4: these plays for three straight years with these guys, same voices. Right,

678
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 4: Mitch Morse was there for his first year, but now

679
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 4: it's been Connor mcgovernor and here we go. And McGovern

680
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,359
Speaker 4: was just on this ship. McGovern was on the other side.

681
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 4: It was at the guard anyway, so he could hear

682
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 4: him speaking anyway during when he was a rookie. So

683
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 4: it's a gift for this offense. And you know it's happenstance.

684
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:09,560
Speaker 4: Nobody twisted. Spencer Brown missed one game last year, and yeah,

685
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 4: who knows how it's going to turn out this year,

686
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 4: but it they continue to be just foundational to how

687
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 4: good this offense was off the charts last year, and

688
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 4: they are foundational in that and they continue to be

689
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 4: right there.

690
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

691
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 2: Most consistent on defense, I'm giving it to defensive tackle

692
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,760
Speaker 2: at Oliver, who's now in his seventh year as a pro.

693
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,880
Speaker 2: Oliver is somebody who two seasons ago, like nine and

694
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 2: a half sacks, had such a productive season. Last year,

695
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 2: the sack numbers weren't there, but he was still a

696
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 2: big part of the defensive line. This offseason, I've seen

697
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 2: him consistently show up in terms of rushing the passer

698
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 2: getting there for pressures and sacks on Josh Allen and

699
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 2: Mitchell Trubisky. He does it in his get off, he

700
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,359
Speaker 2: does it in his athletic body type. That isn't one

701
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,319
Speaker 2: of the biggest defensive tackles, but he does it in

702
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 2: his technique and his pass rush moves from the inside.

703
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 2: Sean McDermott had an incredible quote about at Oliver today.

704
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:14,879
Speaker 2: I asked him, you know, what have you seen out

705
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 2: of this veteran on your team, and he said, I

706
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 2: get emotional thinking about at Oliver. He's been on my

707
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,720
Speaker 2: mind this training camp because of the way he's matured

708
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 2: and grown. McDermott said, usually I'm telling at Oliver get

709
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 2: away from Josh Allen. You're getting way too close to

710
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,359
Speaker 2: him during practices and even saying I've had to kick

711
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,759
Speaker 2: him out of training camp practices before for touching the

712
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 2: quarterback when he shouldn't and he knows he shouldn't. McDermott said,

713
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 2: this year, at Oliver hasn't done any of that, and

714
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,600
Speaker 2: I've seen him take a step forward and get even better.

715
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 2: This guy's turned into a veteran and a leader for

716
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 2: the defensive line.

717
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: Hey, think about this seven years. This is going to

718
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:53,239
Speaker 1: be seventh year.

719
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 4: It's a good career, particularly in this day and age

720
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:58,760
Speaker 4: on one team, and at Oliver has been a fixture

721
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,239
Speaker 4: on this D line that entire time, and certainly that's.

722
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,759
Speaker 1: Kind of a nod towards his consistency as well. All Right.

723
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 1: Most exciting offensive newcomer.

724
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 2: I'm most excited about wide receiver Joshua Palmer because when

725
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 2: he was signed in March, you heard these rave reviews

726
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 2: from Josh Allen and offensive coordinators Joe Brady about his

727
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 2: ability to separate. We saw him do that on the

728
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:29,759
Speaker 2: Chargers for multiple seasons, and you're wondering, what does this

729
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:33,240
Speaker 2: offense need to take a step forward. Having a wide

730
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 2: receiver who can consistently separate and be that deep ball threat,

731
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:40,719
Speaker 2: I think will help this offense as a whole. That's

732
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 2: shown up in training camp. He's been able to separate

733
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:47,720
Speaker 2: from defensive backs. You see josh Allen and Palmer working

734
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,279
Speaker 2: together after reps, after different plays to make sure they're

735
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 2: on the same page. I think he's going to add

736
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 2: a new wrinkle to this offense that defenses aren't ready

737
00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 2: for because they haven't seen it on tape yet.

738
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 1: All Right, Who's the most exciting defensive newcomer.

739
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 2: Most exciting defensive newcomer. We didn't see a lot out

740
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 2: of defensive end Joey Bosa in OTAs because he was

741
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 2: out for with that calf injury. Back and healthy for

742
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:16,560
Speaker 2: training camp. We saw flashes of that Joey Bosa on

743
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 2: the Chargers, who had seventy two sacks in one hundred

744
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 2: and seven games. That is crazy amount of productiveness from

745
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:29,279
Speaker 2: a defensive lineman. He blew through a couple times on

746
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:33,439
Speaker 2: the offensive line. His specialty is using his arms. That's

747
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 2: what he uses to get through the offensive line to

748
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 2: get to the quarterback, and you saw that on occasional plays.

749
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,839
Speaker 2: It's tough to judge a defensive lineman in training camp

750
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 2: because they have to stay away.

751
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 3: From the quarterback.

752
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 2: But I'm really excited to see what Joey Bosa, a

753
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 2: healthy Joey Bosa can do.

754
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:53,760
Speaker 1: Who's the biggest surprise in training camp?

755
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 2: Biggest surprise cornerback Tridevius White. I'm not trying to say

756
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,399
Speaker 2: it was a surprise because we don't know what White

757
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 2: can do, but after that ACL injury in twenty twenty one,

758
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 2: the achilles injury in twenty twenty three.

759
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 3: He leaves the team last.

760
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:12,640
Speaker 2: Season not really feeling like he was fully back to himself.

761
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,359
Speaker 2: Goes to the Ravens and the Rams last year and

762
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 2: consistently gets better. Comes back to Buffalo. That Trey White

763
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,400
Speaker 2: smile that we all know in love. That personality is back,

764
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 2: and he's been very honest about I'm where I want

765
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 2: to be. I'm at home and because of that, I'm

766
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 2: playing my best football. I feel like I'm in a

767
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 2: spot where I'm very healthy. You can see that on

768
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 2: the field. Tray White has been breaking up pass after pass,

769
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 2: playing really well. He understands this defense. It's it was like,

770
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 2: you know, just walking right back into it. I'm I'm

771
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 2: back in the defense I was in for seven years

772
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,880
Speaker 2: that I had six interceptions in it in twenty nineteen.

773
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,359
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see it come Week one, because

774
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,439
Speaker 2: without Maxwell Harriston in the fold, he's weak to week

775
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 2: right now, there's a cornerback battle going on between Harrison

776
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 2: and in White. But without Harrison, White has the advantage

777
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 2: right now in being the Week one starter.

778
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 1: All right, last one before we take a break here,

779
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:13,560
Speaker 1: Bill's most improved, most improved improve Buffalo, Bill, I'm.

780
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,880
Speaker 2: Giving it to a player on defense, a younger player,

781
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 2: second year defensive end Javon Solomon. This was somebody who

782
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:25,240
Speaker 2: the Bills drafted in the fifth round of last year's draft.

783
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 2: He had crazy sack numbers coming out of Troy, sixteen

784
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 2: sacks in his final season. You were wondering, how is

785
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,399
Speaker 2: that going to show up at an NFL level. Well,

786
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 2: Year one for Javon Solomon was kind of learning the defense,

787
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 2: and you could see that when he was out on

788
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:44,839
Speaker 2: the field, you're thinking about it, and you didn't see

789
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,319
Speaker 2: that burst that get off from him that he had

790
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:49,360
Speaker 2: at Troy which allowed him to get sixteen sacks.

791
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 3: Now you talk to teammates, you talk.

792
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 2: To defensive coordinator Bobby Babbage, they say, Javon Solomon is

793
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 2: so much more confident in his second season. It looks

794
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 2: like a weight was lifted off off of his shoulders

795
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 2: in the way he gets out there and the way

796
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 2: he can rush the passer. He's been getting through the

797
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 2: offensive line for sacks and pressures. Solomon had a sack

798
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 2: today and was dancing right after the sack, having a

799
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:15,919
Speaker 2: good time. You just get the vibe that this guy

800
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 2: is in a really good place in his second year

801
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 2: and that's gonna do a lot for the rotation that

802
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 2: he has on the defense.

803
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 4: Those are the Maddie Awards. Good stuff, Maddie first one

804
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:27,680
Speaker 4: of the season. Hopefully we'll get seventeen or twenty more

805
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 4: of those.

806
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 3: Let's do it seventeen.

807
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 1: After every Bills win.

808
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,840
Speaker 4: Maddie's gonna come back and give us the Maddie Awards

809
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,040
Speaker 4: and had a ton of them last year, so we'll

810
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 4: see if we can get there this year.

811
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 1: I know, Thanks Matt.

812
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 3: It's gonna be fun, of course.

813
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 2: All right, we're gonna take a break, but when we return,

814
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,160
Speaker 2: we are going to be breaking into our tweet sheet.

815
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:46,759
Speaker 3: Who or what will you.

816
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:50,800
Speaker 2: Have your eyes on in Saturday's preseason opener against the Giants.

817
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,480
Speaker 2: Will be back right after this clerk where One Bill's

818
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 2: Live presented by Glad Help on Buffalo Bill's Radio.

819
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:05,799
Speaker 3: Welcome back to One Bills Live.

820
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,239
Speaker 2: We want to big a give a big shout out

821
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 2: to Wegmans for providing us with lunch here at Saint

822
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:14,799
Speaker 2: John Fisher today. Today we had a classic subtray. The

823
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,720
Speaker 2: classic subtray is a go to favorite for any gathering,

824
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 2: featuring an assortment of freshly made deli subs like turkey,

825
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 2: ham roast beef, and Danny's favorite, which is also my favorite.

826
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:28,760
Speaker 2: Easy to serve, and always a crowd pleaser. It's perfect

827
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 2: for parties, meetings, or game day spreads. Wegmans the official

828
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:37,360
Speaker 2: tailgate headquarters of the Buffalo Bills great to have Wegmans

829
00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 2: deliver lunch throughout training camp practices. We get access to

830
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 2: the cafeteria, but right after practice, when you're taping interviews

831
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 2: before the show, it's just nice to eat lunch in

832
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:50,120
Speaker 2: the same place and.

833
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 3: Not have to walk all the way.

834
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 4: It's hard for me and Brandy and make it up

835
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 4: there and back. So Wegmans has saved us because we

836
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 4: actually get to actually eat lunch and they just bring

837
00:43:57,480 --> 00:43:57,799
Speaker 4: it to us.

838
00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 1: We don't have.

839
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 4: I didn't go up there all the high camp. I

840
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 4: didn't go to the cafeteria's first time ever, So that

841
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,560
Speaker 4: was great and Wegmans was thoughtful enough to make that happen.

842
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 1: We definitely we appreciated it great.

843
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:11,439
Speaker 3: It's also easy to get stuck in conversations at the cafeteria.

844
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 2: We's got to be back down here for sure, starting

845
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,359
Speaker 2: at once, so it's almost easier to just be here,

846
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,000
Speaker 2: eat your lunch and move on.

847
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:18,479
Speaker 3: With things.

848
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,839
Speaker 2: So thanks to Wegmans, we're now going to get into

849
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,719

00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 2: please against the Giants, not the Jets. I don't know

853
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 2: why I have the Jets in my mind. Wow, But

00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:53,760

859
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:57,280

Speaker 4: enormous way this year, it'll be a little bit of

862
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 4: icing on the cake.

863
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:05,720
Speaker 1: No question.

864
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:10,840
Speaker 4: You're kind of counting on on On Harriston and t J. Sanders,

865
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 4: you know, the higher draft picks. But if those guys

866
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 4: can contribute, that's icing on the cake. I want to

867
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 4: see somebody like like the guys we've talked about, Palmer Kean.

868
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:30,760
Speaker 4: I want to see the guys that we we leaning

869
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:34,400
Speaker 4: on on offense, right, I want to see those guys.

00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 4: I want to see the big guys play well. I

00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,720
Speaker 4: want to see you know. I wish I could see Josh,

872
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:45,760
Speaker 4: but I get it. I want to see Kincaid, Dawson, Knox.

873
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:48,880
Speaker 4: I want to see Hawes the tight end would be nice.

874
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,359
Speaker 4: But yeah, and also I don't care who it is,

875
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:57,960
Speaker 4: but I want the giant quarterback. I want him on

876
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 4: the ground a lot, so whoever it is James. So

877
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:03,920
Speaker 4: it's more about the d.

878
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 1: Line for me.

879
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:05,160
Speaker 3: Play.

880
00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:07,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, their rookie those Yeah.

881
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,800
Speaker 4: But if you're gonna pick out individuals, yeah, but it

882
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 4: doesn't have to be an individual can be like one

883
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 4: side of the ball or the other special teams or

884
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:14,640
Speaker 4: whatever whatever.

885
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, the rookies. I think that's a big one

886
00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:18,759
Speaker 1: in the preseason every year.

887
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:23,280
Speaker 2: I'm interested about Landa Jackson because you, me and Brownie

888
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:26,879
Speaker 2: have have had conversations about what is Landa Jackson going

889
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:30,920
Speaker 2: to be for this defensive line. Obviously, he's got elite length.

890
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:33,760
Speaker 2: Tasker is almost falling almost chairs.

891
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:36,759
Speaker 3: I try to lean back, he's on wheels. Were relaxed

892
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:38,720
Speaker 3: because it's the last day of training camp.

893
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:40,759
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm comfortable. I am going to lean back

894
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 1: like this.

895
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 2: We don't need you to go into the concussion protoc

896
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 2: ahead of my back preseason game.

897
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 4: At least I can bring my own smelling salts this year,

898
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 4: I guess. But yeah, yeah, now I'm comfortable.

899
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 3: Okay, we're comfortable.

900
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:55,720
Speaker 1: Go ahead.

901
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 2: I was saying, I'm eager to watch LANDA. Jackson in

902
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,640
Speaker 2: that first preseason game. He's got elite length. He was

903
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:08,520
Speaker 2: a productive pass rusher at Arkansas in Buffalo's defense. You wonder,

904
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 2: not because he hasn't shown up. He has had his

905
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:14,279
Speaker 2: flashes here and there, but what are they asking a

906
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,360
Speaker 2: rookie to do in his first season in this defensive

907
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,359
Speaker 2: line rotation, because it can be different for everybody. He

908
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 2: may be in and helping set things up for Joey Bosa,

909
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,640
Speaker 2: who comes in on the money downs when you need

910
00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 2: somebody to be a freak at getting after the quarterback.

911
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:32,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's enough guys in that room with Rousseau, Epanessa

912
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 4: and Bosa of course, that there's enough knowledge in there

913
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,239
Speaker 4: that land and Jackson could glean something out of those

914
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 4: guys and help his game. So he not only should

915
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:44,920
Speaker 4: come in, it's just two things. One, you got to

916
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 4: know what you're supposed to do in the defense and

917
00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:48,319
Speaker 4: how they want you to play it. That's different than

918
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 4: it was at Arkansas. And two you got to learn

919
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:55,719
Speaker 4: how to You got to learn something new for your

920
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 4: own game, Like what did I do in hot college?

921
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,719
Speaker 4: What I worked did in college isn't gonna every time

922
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 4: here are gonna have an alternate move? You know, how

923
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 4: do I get my game better? And in this framework

924
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,319
Speaker 4: of the defense. It's the two things he's got to do,

925
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:10,440
Speaker 4: and we'll see if he's made some progress on it.

926
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:13,479
Speaker 4: But those guys in the room, there's no doubt they've

927
00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:17,960
Speaker 4: been incubating his knowledge and technique for him.

928
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 1: They're helping him.

929
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,120
Speaker 4: So you're right, it will be fun to see him

930
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:24,320
Speaker 4: come out and make a difference because.

931
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 2: Now as a rookie, you're playing with the best of

932
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 2: the best. You know, there's only so many people who

933
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:31,560
Speaker 2: can get drafted into the NFL and stay on a

934
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:34,320
Speaker 2: fifty three men roster, which you did in college.

935
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,240
Speaker 3: May be good, but it's not good enough for the NFL.

936
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:38,399

970
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:07,880
Speaker 2: Let me ask you, this is preseason the best time

971
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 2: to be a starting veteran on a team in the NFL.

972
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 2: Uh No, the off season is we know, the off

973
00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:21,400
Speaker 2: season is aside from the office, where does the preson?

974
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:23,839
Speaker 1: Uh No?

975
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:29,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, preseason is nice because you do see other guys

976
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,400
Speaker 4: stressing out about things you know, you know don't matter,

977
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:34,600
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, It's hard to even relate

978
00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 4: to it rookie to say, bro, don't worry about that,

979
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 4: I know, just just do your thing, you know, because

980
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 4: when you're a rookie. And I one of the great

981
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:44,760
Speaker 4: coaches I ever had was a guy named Nick Nicolau.

982
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:46,840
Speaker 4: He coached the wide receivers in the early nineties and

983
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 4: first couple of years of our Super Bowl run. And

984
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:54,719
Speaker 4: he said, he goes, rookies are hard. He goes, he drew,

985
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 4: he drew a picture like a profile, just a of

986
00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,640
Speaker 4: a guy, of a guy's head, just a one line,

987
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,680
Speaker 4: you know, and he goes up into the brain. He

988
00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 4: puts a little scratch on them because they get inflammation

989
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:10,440
Speaker 4: in their brain and it's there for their entire rookie season.

990
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:13,040
Speaker 4: Then when they come back in the off season, after

991
00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,880
Speaker 4: their first off season, you can just wipe it away

992
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,360
Speaker 4: because they're a different guy. They know what there is

993
00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:21,799
Speaker 4: important now, they know what's they should worry about and

994
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:24,440
Speaker 4: what they shouldn't worry about. They don't have other things

995
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 4: piloting in sitting on you know, in the back of

996
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:29,680
Speaker 4: their mind going you know, I wonder you have to

997
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:31,600
Speaker 4: what about that person over the end you have to

998
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 4: worry you know, none of that's there. And it's the

999
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:38,439
Speaker 4: same for these guys today. You really it's it's high

1000
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,520
Speaker 4: stress environment because the stress is all self induced.

1001
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:42,360
Speaker 6: You know.

1002
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:44,040
Speaker 1: Coaches will tell you just relax and play.

1003
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:45,680
Speaker 3: Well, it's so hard to do that.

1004
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is really hard to do that because it's

1005
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: it's a.

1006
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:54,560
Speaker 4: Dream come true to play pro football and you feel

1007
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:57,760
Speaker 4: like every rep is gonna make or break your entire career.

1008
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:01,759
Speaker 1: It's just not the case. So, you know, it's it's

1009
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:03,040
Speaker 1: a tough time for rookies.

1010
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:05,760
Speaker 4: And so as a veteran, Yeah, so as a veteran

1011
00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:06,880
Speaker 4: you come in, it's like you don't have to go

1012
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 4: through that, and you see these guys just absolutely riding

1013
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:16,520
Speaker 4: an emotional, spiritual, physical roller coaster every day, and he's

1014
00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:18,239
Speaker 4: just you don't have to get on that ride, you know.

1015
00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:21,319
Speaker 4: So if you're gonna give him, if you're going to

1016
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:24,960
Speaker 4: give them advice, it's hard. You have to get to

1017
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:28,799
Speaker 4: know him because every kid, every young guys stresses over

1018
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:32,080
Speaker 4: something different. This guy's stressing over his mom, this guy's

1019
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:35,720
Speaker 4: stressing over his code, or this guy's stressing over the food,

1020
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:39,279
Speaker 4: this guy's stressing. They all stress over something has nothing

1021
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:41,000
Speaker 4: to do with you know what I mean. So you

1022
00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:42,200
Speaker 4: got to get to know him and find it, and

1023
00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:44,040
Speaker 4: then it's like, hey, you know, don't worry, you know,

1024
00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:47,879
Speaker 4: you got that, don't worry about that. Just focus on this.

1025
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 4: It's hard to do. It's hard to do because you

1026
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:54,680
Speaker 4: feel like a lot because it's such a physical game.

1027
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:56,240
Speaker 4: You feel like a lot of things got to align

1028
00:53:56,320 --> 00:54:00,319
Speaker 4: for you to play your best. And you know the

1029
00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:03,480
Speaker 4: way your bed feels, the way you you know, yeah,

1030
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:05,480
Speaker 4: where you sleep, how you eat, what you eat, what

1031
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:08,480
Speaker 4: time you eat, what time of day you shower, what

1032
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:10,080
Speaker 4: what you know? When do I get in the cold?

1033
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:13,880
Speaker 4: When can I all? It's a million things and and

1034
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:15,840
Speaker 4: you have to make your own way. As as a

1035
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:19,440
Speaker 4: college kid, a lot of times the coaches have the

1036
00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:21,160
Speaker 4: training step. They grab you by the hand and they

1037
00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:23,160
Speaker 4: pull you and they say do this now, now do that,

1038
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:25,200
Speaker 4: now do this, you do that now go now, go

1039
00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:26,920
Speaker 4: to class. Now come back over when you over here

1040
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:31,800
Speaker 4: at to you know, as a pro, you set the tone.

1041
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:36,480
Speaker 4: You do it your way, You make your way, so

1042
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:38,920
Speaker 4: to speak. And that's why it takes guys. You know

1043
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:42,840
Speaker 4: like that third year, you know, first year, you know,

1044
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:44,360
Speaker 4: I have any idea, Like in the off season, you

1045
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:45,719
Speaker 4: don't know what you're doing. You're gonna like where am

1046
00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 4: I gonna live? Am I gonna go home? And who

1047
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:49,440
Speaker 4: am I gonna train with I gotta train. I'm a

1048
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 4: professional athlete. I gotta train a year around. Who am

1049
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:52,759
Speaker 4: I gonna do that with? Where am I gonna live?

1050
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,319
Speaker 4: Where are they gonna live? What city am I gonna

1051
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:56,640
Speaker 4: be in? And I can choose.

1052
00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:00,600
Speaker 1: You got all that to do. So that's first off

1053
00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:02,040
Speaker 1: season after your rookie year.

1054
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:04,760
Speaker 4: So then after that it's like okay, okay, okay, okay,

1055
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:07,480
Speaker 4: now I'm gonna get So then that second off season,

1056
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:09,680
Speaker 4: you're all in set, you're gonna and then you come

1057
00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:11,399
Speaker 4: in and you're like this in your third year. Now

1058
00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 4: that's been accelerated a little bit, I think by nil

1059
00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 4: At the college level, guys are used to moving around

1060
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:20,520
Speaker 4: and you know, so they're a little bit more professional

1061
00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:24,799
Speaker 4: athlete mentality of taking care of themselves than guys in

1062
00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:25,239
Speaker 4: my era.

1063
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:28,239
Speaker 1: So that may make it a.

1064
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:34,359
Speaker 4: Little easier for these guys, but it's still a pressure pass.

1065
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 2: I mean, you feel so much for them. Watching every

1066
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,960
Speaker 2: single practice, you see a younger player, a new player

1067
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:43,319
Speaker 2: who's fighting for a spot on the roster, and they

1068
00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:46,240
Speaker 2: drop a ball or they are so close to getting

1069
00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:48,919
Speaker 2: an interception but they drop it and you see them

1070
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:52,439
Speaker 2: smack their hands on the ground or kind of look

1071
00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:55,120
Speaker 2: like they're really upset with what just happened.

1072
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:56,480
Speaker 3: And I don't know.

1073
00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:58,799
Speaker 2: You you're around this team so much that you just

1074
00:55:58,840 --> 00:56:00,239
Speaker 2: feel it deep in your core and.

1075
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:01,560
Speaker 3: You're like, you got it.

1076
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 4: You're when you're out here, When you're out here at

1077
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:06,840
Speaker 4: training camp, you watch practice. It's funny too, because you know,

1078
00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:09,480
Speaker 4: even on a game, you don't get to see this,

1079
00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:11,759
Speaker 4: but in practice, when you're down here watching these guys

1080
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:13,719
Speaker 4: grind away, you get a sense of it a lot

1081
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:16,359
Speaker 4: like Max Harriston goes out in first couple of days

1082
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:18,640
Speaker 4: and he'll bat a pull down, or he'll he'll pop

1083
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:20,719
Speaker 4: an interceptional will get bumped out of his hands, he'll

1084
00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:23,719
Speaker 4: drop the interception, and you know, the next next team

1085
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:25,279
Speaker 4: rotates through. So they go off and they get a

1086
00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:28,759
Speaker 4: drink in the sidelines, and you'll see these rookies. You

1087
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,839
Speaker 4: can just see him stewing over that last play. They

1088
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 4: can't take their mind off it. They're like, oh, I

1089
00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 4: can't you know it just it was like the Super

1090
00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 4: They lost the Super Bowl in that one moment, right

1091
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:43,600
Speaker 4: and nobody else is even there anymore. They're they're all

1092
00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:46,000
Speaker 4: moved on, and now they and they get caught up

1093
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:47,719
Speaker 4: in that, and they don't think about what's going on

1094
00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:50,600
Speaker 4: the field now. They're not watching their position, taking a

1095
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:53,879
Speaker 4: mental rep now, because they're still stewing about they could

1096
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:58,000
Speaker 4: have snatched the entire momentum a practice away in their favor,

1097
00:56:58,040 --> 00:56:58,200
Speaker 4: you know.

1098
00:56:58,200 --> 00:56:58,560
Speaker 1: What I mean.

1099
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:02,279
Speaker 4: They feel like it's a miss. It's just crazy. And

1100
00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:05,960
Speaker 4: it's because the stakes are so high, at least in

1101
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:10,799
Speaker 4: everybody's mind. The stress is off the charts, and and

1102
00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:12,120
Speaker 4: everybody reacts differently.

1103
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:14,160
Speaker 3: You just gotta tap on the shoulder and be like,

1104
00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:15,719
Speaker 3: I've been their son.

1105
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, even more than that, you know, you just give

1106
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:22,680
Speaker 4: him some encouragement. And some guys and that's the crazy part,

1107
00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:25,200
Speaker 4: and that's why this this this place is so good

1108
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:30,640
Speaker 4: at development, Maddie. Some guys don't respond to being encouraged.

1109
00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 4: It sounds crazy.

1110
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:33,560
Speaker 3: Sometimes they need to be pushed harder.

1111
00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:36,920
Speaker 4: Sometimes they need their they need to be challenged. They

1112
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:40,680
Speaker 4: sometimes they need to be challenged or threatened or whatever.

1113
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:46,560
Speaker 4: They all get motivated by different stuff. And this culture

1114
00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:49,800
Speaker 4: here and with doctor Dez and the coaching staff, and

1115
00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:52,200
Speaker 4: they the work they do to research who these guys

1116
00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:55,040
Speaker 4: are at their core helps them to push the right

1117
00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:56,400
Speaker 4: buttons for each guy.

1118
00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:57,200
Speaker 1: This guy needs.

1119
00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:59,000
Speaker 4: This guy needs to be rubbed on his shoulders and

1120
00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:01,160
Speaker 4: told he's the greatest thing ever, because that's what really

1121
00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:04,120
Speaker 4: motivates him. This guy needs to have his manhood challenged

1122
00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:07,760
Speaker 4: every play. And this guy needs to be left alone

1123
00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:09,640
Speaker 4: to his own You know, he's better when when he's

1124
00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:11,840
Speaker 4: not thinking about anything like that. You know, the whole

1125
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:15,840
Speaker 4: thing is on the table and this staff, and it's

1126
00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:21,440
Speaker 4: a brilliant concept because it's so far outside the lines.

1127
00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:26,600
Speaker 4: Most teams don't worry about stuff. This team gets to

1128
00:58:26,640 --> 00:58:30,000
Speaker 4: the core of their players and gives them what that

1129
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:32,960
Speaker 4: environment in which each individual can thrive. And so you

1130
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:37,160
Speaker 4: got two corners and he treat them completely different. That's hard,

1131
00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,439
Speaker 4: but it's also you know, kind of the championship level

1132
00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:42,600
Speaker 4: this team maintains.

1133
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 3: Gotta go to the extra mile if you want to

1134
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:45,280
Speaker 3: get there.

1135
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:48,240
Speaker 4: Sixth rounders on other teams don't come in and beat

1136
00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:50,720
Speaker 4: out a first rounder and start on opening day, yeah,

1137
00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:53,000
Speaker 4: and get to their second contract as the alpha male

1138
00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:57,000
Speaker 4: in the in the room. That does not happen anywhere else.

1139
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:01,000
Speaker 4: That's why this place is, especially why Trade White was

1140
00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:02,439
Speaker 4: fighting to get back here.

1141
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:05,960
Speaker 2: We're going to go to our phone lines because we've

1142
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:08,600
Speaker 2: got a collar hanging on. It's been Tom from the

1143
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 2: West Side has been on the line.

1144
00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:11,480
Speaker 3: Tom, how are you doing.

1145
00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:18,160
Speaker 7: Kiddo's good afternoon. I hope the smoke's not bothering you

1146
00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:22,520
Speaker 7: too much. We're getting a little today. No, we're not

1147
00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:27,760
Speaker 7: bad here, but that's good. But the Bills aren't practicing.

1148
00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:30,280
Speaker 7: I mean they had to practice centered. I feel bad

1149
00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 7: for them that in the humidity. But anyway, as far

1150
00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:40,360
Speaker 7: as I don't get to go to training camp, and

1151
00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:43,520
Speaker 7: even if I had the opportunity, I probably wouldn't go

1152
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:47,040
Speaker 7: because I don't like large crowds. I don't want to

1153
00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:50,280
Speaker 7: get my footstepped on or kicked because I got a

1154
00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:53,240
Speaker 7: lot of problems. I could do it, but I would struggle.

1155
00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:56,760
Speaker 5: So I want to watch all the guys that I

1156
00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:00,760
Speaker 5: don't know that I should know or I'm gonna know,

1157
01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:05,320
Speaker 5: much like a Joe Ann Risen last year. I mean, yeah,

1158
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:07,680
Speaker 5: I want to see all the all the guys we

1159
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:12,240
Speaker 5: drafted play and watch them. But I want to see

1160
01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 5: the people I don't know that I'm gonna know.

1161
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, that's interesting. That's a good way to put it.

1162
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:23,520
Speaker 5: Tom, go ahead, I got I got one more question.

1163
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:28,120
Speaker 5: With all this talk about the smelling salts and everything.

1164
01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:33,840
Speaker 5: Now they revised it. They said the medical staff the

1165
01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:37,280
Speaker 5: team can't supply them. So does that mean if I'm

1166
01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:40,360
Speaker 5: a guy like George Kittle, I could stick him in

1167
01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:43,320
Speaker 5: my socks and if I need them, I can pull

1168
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:46,880
Speaker 5: them out during the game and use them.

1169
01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:48,880
Speaker 1: Sounds like that's what it means to me.

1170
01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:52,200
Speaker 5: Tom, Okay, talk about it.

1171
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:57,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's one of the topics this week that for

1172
01:00:57,160 --> 01:01:00,040
Speaker 4: those of you who don't follow it, the minutia of

1173
01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:03,760
Speaker 4: the NFL, and this this is minutia. Smelling salts and

1174
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,720
Speaker 4: you'll see guys, and smelling salts are basically it's ammonia

1175
01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:10,320
Speaker 4: in a little glass capsule in the inside a cotton

1176
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:13,720
Speaker 4: bag that's very it's a big cat and they snap

1177
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:16,640
Speaker 4: the glass capsule and the emonia gets into the cotton

1178
01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:18,200
Speaker 4: of the bag and you can smell it and it.

1179
01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:20,320
Speaker 3: I've never done one before.

1180
01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:23,120
Speaker 1: Don't I don't want.

1181
01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:26,600
Speaker 4: It's rough, but guys do it because it it wakes

1182
01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:27,200
Speaker 4: you up.

1183
01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:29,680
Speaker 1: You know, first instantaneously.

1184
01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:33,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, so it it blows through your sinus cavities all

1185
01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:36,000
Speaker 4: the way through the back of your head. It's it's

1186
01:01:36,320 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 4: it's loud, it's loud, make it. It makes no sound,

1187
01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:39,680
Speaker 4: but it's loud.

1188
01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:41,240
Speaker 1: So uh yeah.

1189
01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:45,080
Speaker 4: That and the clubs don't aren't gonna give players smelling

1190
01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:47,000
Speaker 4: They can bring them and use them. It's not a

1191
01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:47,880
Speaker 4: banned substance.

1192
01:01:48,280 --> 01:01:48,400
Speaker 6: Uh.

1193
01:01:48,440 --> 01:01:51,960
Speaker 4: But what will happen mostly is a player will buy

1194
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:55,240
Speaker 4: a box, give it to the equipment guy and say, hey,

1195
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:57,160
Speaker 4: have this for the game for me, and the equipment

1196
01:01:57,160 --> 01:01:58,720
Speaker 4: guy will have it and he's and when you need it,

1197
01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:00,360
Speaker 4: he'll go over and get it or ask for it.

1198
01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:01,760
Speaker 1: And that's that's how it will works.

1199
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:05,160
Speaker 2: So uh, it's been funny to see the outpouring of

1200
01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:08,320
Speaker 2: support that smelling salts has in the NFL. I mean,

1201
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:11,240
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield was on up and Adams saying this is

1202
01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:15,360
Speaker 2: going to affect me. I used this every single game.

1203
01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:16,840
Speaker 2: I don't know what I'm It's very simple.

1204
01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:18,320
Speaker 1: The players. The players will just pitch.

1205
01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:20,320
Speaker 4: The players may pitch in and say hey, here's our

1206
01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:22,080
Speaker 4: and bring it in and say, hey, make sure this

1207
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:24,640
Speaker 4: is on the sideline. Did the club didn't buy it?

1208
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:27,960
Speaker 4: The players can buy it. They've got the receipt, just

1209
01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:30,120
Speaker 4: give it to the equipment guys and you know, and

1210
01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:33,480
Speaker 4: Jeff will Jeff missourik will take care of him and

1211
01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:35,640
Speaker 4: they'll they'll have it for him and they can hand

1212
01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:36,080
Speaker 4: it to them.

1213
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:37,520
Speaker 1: They just can't buy it for him.

1214
01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:43,280
Speaker 4: So that's it's a subtlety. And he's right, and Tom

1215
01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:46,520
Speaker 4: from WESTA is right. That is the fun part about this.

1216
01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:50,280
Speaker 4: That's a that's a it's a really astute observation. I

1217
01:02:50,320 --> 01:02:51,720
Speaker 4: want to get to know the guys and I know

1218
01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:55,160
Speaker 4: I'm gonna know, you know what I mean, Like last year,

1219
01:02:55,800 --> 01:03:00,040
Speaker 4: I didn't know Joe Andresen was a long shot, and

1220
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:01,800
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, it's like, wow, hey, you know,

1221
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:05,320
Speaker 4: that's the fun part about this whole exercise. You know

1222
01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:08,919
Speaker 4: when when you know Jackson Hawes comes in catches three

1223
01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:11,040
Speaker 4: touchdowns against the Giants and it's like, oh my gosh,

1224
01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:13,960
Speaker 4: there is let's go that kind of stuff. He's right

1225
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:17,840
Speaker 4: you because I've always said this, when you when you

1226
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:21,160
Speaker 4: become a Buffalo Bill, you get adopted into this family

1227
01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:24,960
Speaker 4: and you want to you want to meet the new

1228
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:28,000
Speaker 4: family members. You know, it really is like that. My

1229
01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:32,240
Speaker 4: I'm perfect example of that. I feel you really feel

1230
01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:35,400
Speaker 4: like you get adopted, uh into a thing. Because people

1231
01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:37,640
Speaker 4: in buff I mean you've seen everybody calls me by

1232
01:03:37,680 --> 01:03:42,800
Speaker 4: my first name, right, So it's like and they're not

1233
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:44,800
Speaker 4: they're great, they're and they're wishing the best for you,

1234
01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:46,120
Speaker 4: you know. So it's like being a part of a

1235
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:48,800
Speaker 4: big family and it's that's a little different than it

1236
01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:53,800
Speaker 4: is in other places. So that's a that's a really

1237
01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:56,960
Speaker 4: I had not thought about it like that, but he's right.

1238
01:03:57,280 --> 01:03:59,240
Speaker 4: You want to find out who the new family members

1239
01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:03,640
Speaker 4: are because you're gonna you're expected to know. Can't be

1240
01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:05,800
Speaker 4: a Bills fan not know the roster. So it's kinda

1241
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:07,080
Speaker 4: that's kind of cool that he said that.

1242
01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,040
Speaker 2: It'll be fun to see how that takes shape and

1243
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:13,040
Speaker 2: in form with some of these news got new guys, uh,

1244
01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:17,000
Speaker 2: really becoming standout players for this team this season. All Right,

1245
01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:19,640
Speaker 2: we're gonna go to Josh Allen, who spoke to the

1246
01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:23,840
Speaker 2: media right after their final training camp practice here in Rochester.

1247
01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:25,400
Speaker 3: Let's hear what the QB had to say.

1248
01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:29,840
Speaker 8: That's all I mean, we've actually pre season. I know

1249
01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:32,720
Speaker 8: you want to get some time in, but just the

1250
01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:37,480
Speaker 8: caution of not you're not playing alongside yeah, just.

1251
01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:40,480
Speaker 9: Just trusting what coach is saying, what he's thinking. You know,

1252
01:04:40,560 --> 01:04:42,760
Speaker 9: he's he's the guy in charge. So following, what are

1253
01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:44,520
Speaker 9: you saying? That's that's all I'm doing. And if he

1254
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:47,400
Speaker 9: if he said play, might be playing. So that's that's

1255
01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:48,439
Speaker 9: how it's so.

1256
01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:51,000
Speaker 10: Many regular season games in a row, right, Have you

1257
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:53,880
Speaker 10: in the preseason over the years learn.

1258
01:04:53,800 --> 01:04:56,120
Speaker 8: Anything about what to take out of that when you're

1259
01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:57,240
Speaker 8: kind of watching.

1260
01:04:57,120 --> 01:04:57,840
Speaker 1: For a whole game.

1261
01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:00,600
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean just staying in it, cheering your guys.

1262
01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:04,760
Speaker 9: And this is a very pivotal moment for some guys

1263
01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:06,440
Speaker 9: trying to make the roster and trying to make a

1264
01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:09,360
Speaker 9: living for you know, themselves and their families.

1265
01:05:09,440 --> 01:05:11,360
Speaker 11: So I understand the gravity.

1266
01:05:10,960 --> 01:05:13,600
Speaker 9: Of these games and what they mean to certain guys,

1267
01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:15,760
Speaker 9: and I just want to make sure that I give

1268
01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:19,040
Speaker 9: them my full attention and a lending lending ear and

1269
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:21,520
Speaker 9: a lending mind if they need it, and just trying

1270
01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:22,680
Speaker 9: to help out as much as possible.

1271
01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:24,840
Speaker 11: You're looking forward to getting a chance to catch up

1272
01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:25,400
Speaker 11: with Dave all.

1273
01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:27,920
Speaker 9: I know you guys have maintained a pretty close relationship

1274
01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:28,520
Speaker 9: since he left.

1275
01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:29,640
Speaker 11: Yeah, I love that guy.

1276
01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:33,080
Speaker 9: Obviously a Buffalo native, so I know that a lot

1277
01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:35,520
Speaker 9: of people here love him too, So yeah, it'd be

1278
01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:36,680
Speaker 9: good to see him back.

1279
01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:39,080
Speaker 8: Shoulder balls that Kean has been looks like they've been

1280
01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:41,280
Speaker 8: an emphasis in camp. How would you just describe that

1281
01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:44,240
Speaker 8: the progress you've made with those back shoulders that keon

1282
01:05:44,360 --> 01:05:47,160
Speaker 8: CROs camp for a beginning of the off.

1283
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:48,920
Speaker 11: Season, so it's out, Yeah, a lot of progress.

1284
01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:51,360
Speaker 9: I think going back and look at looking at the

1285
01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:53,800
Speaker 9: film from last year, not just with him, but with

1286
01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:56,520
Speaker 9: all of our guys, and you know, going back and

1287
01:05:56,800 --> 01:05:59,920
Speaker 9: studying some of the best guys to throw go right

1288
01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:03,880
Speaker 9: out you know, where to leave those balls, you know,

1289
01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:06,360
Speaker 9: giving our guys a chance, not not throwing them out

1290
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:08,720
Speaker 9: of bounds. Obviously you see those long, deep throws and

1291
01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:10,720
Speaker 9: it's just like it's starting to tell out of bounds

1292
01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:13,360
Speaker 9: and can't they say ninety nine percent of balls that

1293
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:16,720
Speaker 9: go out of bounds aren't aren't catchable. So I don't

1294
01:06:16,720 --> 01:06:18,960
Speaker 9: know who said that's that, but that's what it is.

1295
01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:21,120
Speaker 9: And just trying to give our guys a chance to

1296
01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:21,560
Speaker 9: make a play.

1297
01:06:21,800 --> 01:06:24,600
Speaker 10: Conor McGovern mentioned last week the especially second here as

1298
01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:28,560
Speaker 10: your center, he's taking on some more responsibility at the line.

1299
01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:29,680
Speaker 11: How can that help.

1300
01:06:29,560 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 10: You in terms of him making some of those calls

1301
01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 10: that you're confirming them. What process did you guys mean

1302
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:37,320
Speaker 10: building a relationship but getting that comfort with him over

1303
01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:38,840
Speaker 10: the past year to where you trust him.

1304
01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:43,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, trust him implicitly. He's a very smart guy. You know,

1305
01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:47,080
Speaker 9: he's in the huddle. You know, I trust what he's seen,

1306
01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:49,120
Speaker 9: what he's what he's thinking, he knows what he's doing.

1307
01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:52,360
Speaker 9: He's just a he's a great player, he's a great,

1308
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:56,400
Speaker 9: great human being. And I I've got no doubt when

1309
01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:59,520
Speaker 9: he's making calls. You know, there's no no corrections. He's

1310
01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 9: he's seeing it and he's doing it. Yeah, he's he's very,

1311
01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:04,760
Speaker 9: very fun to work with, being.

1312
01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:07,600
Speaker 8: Able to accomplish when you wanted to this camp considering

1313
01:07:07,680 --> 01:07:11,880
Speaker 8: how many pieces were missing the every day where stood

1314
01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:12,320
Speaker 8: in right.

1315
01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:12,720
Speaker 1: Something like that.

1316
01:07:13,240 --> 01:07:17,240
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean guys are stepping up making plays, you know,

1317
01:07:17,320 --> 01:07:21,200
Speaker 9: the opportunity to throw to maybe guys that I wouldn't

1318
01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:24,120
Speaker 9: have or haven't had in the past, you know, trying

1319
01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:25,840
Speaker 9: to get on the same page with five and eighteen

1320
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:29,920
Speaker 9: as well as zero. But yeah, guys, guys did a

1321
01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:33,960
Speaker 9: great job of learning what they were doing, going out

1322
01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:36,920
Speaker 9: there and executing fine around you know, our defense is

1323
01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:39,800
Speaker 9: fine around making some plays too, so coming together the team,

1324
01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:41,200
Speaker 9: that's that's what you want in camp. And I think

1325
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:43,560
Speaker 9: That's what we did in terms of guys getting to

1326
01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:47,120
Speaker 9: know each other, meshing and jailing, and you know, hopefully

1327
01:07:47,120 --> 01:07:49,720
Speaker 9: we can carry that going over into Buffalo into the

1328
01:07:49,760 --> 01:07:53,720
Speaker 9: preseason and then ultimately start start to start the regular

1329
01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:55,040
Speaker 9: season and try to go one to.

1330
01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,680
Speaker 6: Know, how do you waive the Cooke situation as a

1331
01:07:58,000 --> 01:07:59,880
Speaker 6: teammate and as a player.

1332
01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:02,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean it's it's no doubt that we all

1333
01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:06,200
Speaker 9: want him out there with us, you know. I you know,

1334
01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:09,920
Speaker 9: I've got no say in what goes on behind closed doors.

1335
01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:13,160
Speaker 9: And and you know, I'm a big advocate of everybody

1336
01:08:13,160 --> 01:08:17,040
Speaker 9: getting getting theirs and getting paid, and you know, sometimes

1337
01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:17,960
Speaker 9: you gotta do what you gotta do.

1338
01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:20,599
Speaker 11: And you know that's kind of where it's at.

1339
01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:23,679
Speaker 3: How has that impacted you during practice? Brandon said something

1340
01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:24,520
Speaker 3: to the effect.

1341
01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:26,200
Speaker 8: The other day of how you know you and Sean

1342
01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:28,640
Speaker 8: are the two most impacted by it during practice? So

1343
01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:29,560
Speaker 8: what's that been like that?

1344
01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:32,320
Speaker 9: I mean, guys going out, it's it's no different than

1345
01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:34,559
Speaker 9: you know, Khalil being out with with an ankle. Guys

1346
01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:37,599
Speaker 9: are stepping up making plays, and you know it's good

1347
01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:39,360
Speaker 9: for ready to get some of these reps and and

1348
01:08:39,479 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 9: you know, getting on the same page with Taigan, who

1349
01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:42,880
Speaker 9: I think is their best they're down back in the

1350
01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:47,160
Speaker 9: game and just gives them a couple more opportunities. But

1351
01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:49,640
Speaker 9: you know, you know, James is who he is, and

1352
01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:51,639
Speaker 9: he's one of the best running backs in the league.

1353
01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:53,760
Speaker 9: And he'd be crazy not to say we don't want

1354
01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:55,840
Speaker 9: him out there. We we we desperately want him out

1355
01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:58,080
Speaker 9: there with us and hopefully something can get done.

1356
01:08:58,479 --> 01:09:00,559
Speaker 10: Said, he's still been in all the new I mean,

1357
01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:02,720
Speaker 10: you guys are brothers, like you've talked about.

1358
01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:05,120
Speaker 4: Is it something where he's kind of going through something,

1359
01:09:05,240 --> 01:09:06,960
Speaker 4: just putting your arm around him and just being there

1360
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:07,360
Speaker 4: for him too.

1361
01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:07,719
Speaker 11: Yeah.

1362
01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:08,960
Speaker 9: I look at the end of the day, there there

1363
01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:12,360
Speaker 9: is this this huge business piece to this game. It's

1364
01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:15,840
Speaker 9: it's the hardest part. A lot of people don't understand it.

1365
01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:18,320
Speaker 9: You know, he he knows he's holding out, he's holding

1366
01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:21,360
Speaker 9: in whatever he's doing, and people want to but hey,

1367
01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:25,760
Speaker 9: this is it's generational stuff. It's it's wealth for you

1368
01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:29,760
Speaker 9: and your family, it's you know, it's not a small

1369
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:32,000
Speaker 9: chunk of change. And making sure that he's healthy and

1370
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:35,280
Speaker 9: still going through the mental reps and he's he's still

1371
01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:35,640
Speaker 9: doing that.

1372
01:09:35,680 --> 01:09:38,040
Speaker 11: He's he's a pro and he knows what he's doing.

1373
01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:40,280
Speaker 4: What's up meant for that group up front to have

1374
01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:42,040
Speaker 4: Spencer back in the last couple of days.

1375
01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:43,679
Speaker 1: He really seemed to blossom last year.

1376
01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:47,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, No, Spencer's one one of one of the guys

1377
01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:48,720
Speaker 9: in the locker room that everybody kind of looks to

1378
01:09:48,840 --> 01:09:52,160
Speaker 9: for his mentality. He's a dog and to have him

1379
01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,240
Speaker 9: back out there and just kind of like the the

1380
01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:57,840
Speaker 9: quiet meanness that he has. He plays with a real

1381
01:09:57,920 --> 01:09:59,679
Speaker 9: chip on his shoulder and you see it when he plays.

1382
01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:02,240
Speaker 11: And you know.

1383
01:10:02,240 --> 01:10:05,040
Speaker 9: He we played our final Katan game last night and

1384
01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:07,680
Speaker 9: he wasn't first, second, or third, I'll tell you that.

1385
01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:10,840
Speaker 11: So he was a little angry today about it.

1386
01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:14,000
Speaker 9: And uh, I'm sure he threw around a few guys

1387
01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:16,360
Speaker 9: that that didn't didn't warrant it, but he had to

1388
01:10:16,360 --> 01:10:17,120
Speaker 9: get some anger outes.

1389
01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:20,360
Speaker 8: So John said that the team wasn't really where he

1390
01:10:20,439 --> 01:10:22,639
Speaker 8: wanted to be when you guys practiced an Orchard part,

1391
01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:25,559
Speaker 8: but you felt this last week you guys have really

1392
01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:27,880
Speaker 8: stepped it up. Well, what did you guys do to

1393
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:29,400
Speaker 8: kind of catch up a little bit to get.

1394
01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:30,040
Speaker 5: Where you're needing to?

1395
01:10:30,439 --> 01:10:32,920
Speaker 9: Just trust in the process, keep keep getting into your playbook,

1396
01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:36,879
Speaker 9: trying to stack days and just have have good practices.

1397
01:10:36,920 --> 01:10:38,919
Speaker 11: That's that's all. It takes guys being locked.

1398
01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:40,760
Speaker 9: In and ready to go in the morning, and then

1399
01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:44,200
Speaker 9: you know, during meetings being laser focused and trying to

1400
01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:46,920
Speaker 9: correct things that may have went wrong on the field.

1401
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:50,520
Speaker 9: So I think it was just more attention to detail.

1402
01:10:51,960 --> 01:10:53,800
Speaker 8: A general topic of discussion to.

1403
01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:56,800
Speaker 11: Be doing snaps. I mean, I I a few of

1404
01:10:56,840 --> 01:10:57,320
Speaker 11: the linemen.

1405
01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:01,560
Speaker 9: I bet that I couldn't show fit the word Galileo

1406
01:11:01,840 --> 01:11:05,519
Speaker 9: into my micd up segments, So I figured something out.

1407
01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:06,920
Speaker 11: Did you research him?

1408
01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:12,400
Speaker 9: Or it's just like, is that not common knowledge?

1409
01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:14,960
Speaker 11: She gave up a couple of Rider Cup tickets.

1410
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:17,840
Speaker 10: Why was that important or something that you felt like

1411
01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:18,320
Speaker 10: you should do.

1412
01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:20,680
Speaker 9: Yeah, well, I know the Bills have had him for

1413
01:11:20,720 --> 01:11:23,760
Speaker 9: a while. Obviously it's in New York this year, so

1414
01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:28,000
Speaker 9: why not have only New York teams and some some

1415
01:11:28,040 --> 01:11:30,479
Speaker 9: of our Bill's Mafia fans over there. And Nate's uh,

1416
01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:32,240
Speaker 9: he's a great guy. He golfs a lot. I don't

1417
01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:35,439
Speaker 9: know if you guys are on Instagram, but I believe

1418
01:11:35,439 --> 01:11:38,120
Speaker 9: his tags Nate the golf Guy or Nate the Golfer,

1419
01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:41,439
Speaker 9: one of one of those and you know he actually

1420
01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:42,639
Speaker 9: he's got a good swing.

1421
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:44,920
Speaker 11: So it was a cool moment.

1422
01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:47,519
Speaker 3: Josh Sean said that Mitch is going to start the

1423
01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:50,600
Speaker 3: place within your impression of his off season.

1424
01:11:50,439 --> 01:11:51,479
Speaker 5: Treating him so far.

1425
01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:54,920
Speaker 9: Of Mitch, Yeah, Mitch is every day, he's the same

1426
01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:56,520
Speaker 9: same exact guy.

1427
01:11:56,640 --> 01:12:00,679
Speaker 11: He knows who he is. He works extra stremely hard.

1428
01:12:01,479 --> 01:12:04,040
Speaker 9: He's doing everything he can right now to to continue

1429
01:12:04,040 --> 01:12:07,000
Speaker 9: to improve. And you know, I love him. I love

1430
01:12:07,040 --> 01:12:08,960
Speaker 9: all of the quarterbacks in our room. We've we've had

1431
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,360
Speaker 9: such a a great year and a half together. Mike

1432
01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:14,559
Speaker 9: got here last year and then ax Shane has been

1433
01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:17,559
Speaker 9: here for two years now, and you know, it's.

1434
01:12:17,400 --> 01:12:18,519
Speaker 11: A it's a very good group.

1435
01:12:18,560 --> 01:12:23,639
Speaker 9: All of our uh attitudes and personalities kind of mesh

1436
01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:26,439
Speaker 9: well with each other and we we we love coming

1437
01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:28,240
Speaker 9: to work each day and hanging out with each other.

1438
01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:30,760
Speaker 9: But yeah, he's he's just putting his head down and

1439
01:12:30,760 --> 01:12:32,840
Speaker 9: working as hard as he can and he's making some

1440
01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:35,240
Speaker 9: good plays out there and hopefully we can roll that

1441
01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:36,679
Speaker 9: into the game on Saturday.

1442
01:12:36,760 --> 01:12:38,960
Speaker 2: Obviously he's something now and he was here earlier in

1443
01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:41,400
Speaker 2: your career and he came back like with which specifically,

1444
01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:44,720
Speaker 2: what is your relationships played with him like he's obviously.

1445
01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,120
Speaker 4: Seen a lot of different things in this speak like,

1446
01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:48,000
Speaker 4: what's it like having what is he like? I guess

1447
01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:48,880
Speaker 4: in your relationship with that?

1448
01:12:49,280 --> 01:12:54,080
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean in terms of his football, He's played

1449
01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:55,920
Speaker 9: in a lot of really big games in his life.

1450
01:12:55,960 --> 01:12:58,920
Speaker 9: And to have somebody with that experience who's seen those

1451
01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:01,200
Speaker 9: things and he's been around with couple offenses and having

1452
01:13:01,240 --> 01:13:05,240
Speaker 9: that that mindset and that knowledge, it's a great tool

1453
01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:09,080
Speaker 9: for me, you know. And then off the field, we're

1454
01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:12,040
Speaker 9: pretty buddy buddy. So it's uh, I mean, I'd say

1455
01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:13,920
Speaker 9: the same thing with all all three of those guys,

1456
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:17,280
Speaker 9: But we we hang out a lot. Quarterback Dinners are

1457
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:20,360
Speaker 9: a thing that we do during the season and get

1458
01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:22,280
Speaker 9: to hang out with each other even more than we

1459
01:13:22,320 --> 01:13:24,800
Speaker 9: already do because we spend so much time together during

1460
01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:29,000
Speaker 9: the season in meetings and walkthroughs and practices and more meetings,

1461
01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:32,559
Speaker 9: eating lunch and breakfast together, and then you know, we

1462
01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:34,639
Speaker 9: get to supplement that with some off the field hanging

1463
01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:38,600
Speaker 9: out and just three really really great human beings that

1464
01:13:38,680 --> 01:13:42,200
Speaker 9: I don't even don't just trust on the field, I

1465
01:13:42,240 --> 01:13:43,760
Speaker 9: would trust them with my life off the field.

1466
01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:45,320
Speaker 11: It's a pretty cool room that we have.

1467
01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:47,400
Speaker 10: I think you said on the first day of camp

1468
01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:48,719
Speaker 10: that if you want to get better.

1469
01:13:48,560 --> 01:13:50,479
Speaker 1: In football, this is the place you need to be.

1470
01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:52,400
Speaker 10: How in the last two and a half weeks, do

1471
01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:53,200
Speaker 10: feel like your team.

1472
01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:55,040
Speaker 9: Has gotten better than they Yeah, I think we've come

1473
01:13:55,040 --> 01:13:57,760
Speaker 9: together pretty well. I think what our defense is doing

1474
01:13:57,840 --> 01:14:01,920
Speaker 9: right now is it's gonna be pretty tough for quarterbacks

1475
01:14:02,560 --> 01:14:06,600
Speaker 9: and opposing offenses. Guys are flying around, they know their assignments,

1476
01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:10,080
Speaker 9: and then offensive league and just adding the pieces that

1477
01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:13,560
Speaker 9: that we've gotten over this offseason and just trying to

1478
01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:17,519
Speaker 9: get them up to speed with us. Yeah, and just

1479
01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:18,960
Speaker 9: trying to go out there and play basketball.

1480
01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:21,439
Speaker 3: Who's throughouts you on the defenses You've got up against

1481
01:14:21,439 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 3: some dark.

1482
01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:25,639
Speaker 11: Camp Matlana looks pretty dang good. He's flying around.

1483
01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:29,280
Speaker 9: He's Christian Benford, obviously, I think is one of the

1484
01:14:29,320 --> 01:14:31,760
Speaker 9: premier cornerbacks in the league and doesn't get talked talked

1485
01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:34,400
Speaker 9: about enough, but I think he likes it that way,

1486
01:14:36,600 --> 01:14:39,840
Speaker 9: you know. And I think A j and Panessa Greg

1487
01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:41,720
Speaker 9: Grusso they've had pretty good camps as well.

1488
01:14:44,439 --> 01:14:47,200
Speaker 2: A pretty good nugget from Josh Allen. They're talking about

1489
01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:50,240
Speaker 2: some defensive players who have caught his eye training camp,

1490
01:14:50,280 --> 01:14:52,479
Speaker 2: Matt Milano and Christian Benford.

1491
01:14:52,479 --> 01:14:53,760
Speaker 3: Has been so good to.

1492
01:14:53,720 --> 01:14:58,320
Speaker 2: See Matt Milano back and healthy, acting like himself, chasing

1493
01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:02,400
Speaker 2: down offensive players, tackling pass break up to all that

1494
01:15:02,439 --> 01:15:03,040
Speaker 2: good stuff.

1495
01:15:03,200 --> 01:15:05,120
Speaker 3: And I'm excited to see this defensive line.

1496
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:08,400
Speaker 2: Josh Allen talked about it during that press conference, what

1497
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:11,439
Speaker 2: they will do to opposing offenses this year. We're gonna

1498
01:15:11,479 --> 01:15:13,519

1544
01:17:27,920 --> 01:17:28,759
Speaker 4: even checked the weather.

1545
01:17:29,479 --> 01:17:30,559
Speaker 3: It's supposed to be hot.

1546
01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:34,880
Speaker 4: It sounds like it's gonna be absolutely smoking hot.

1547
01:17:35,360 --> 01:17:36,559
Speaker 1: That's all I can think about.

1548
01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:42,160
Speaker 4: It's just gonna be so oppressively hot inside that stadium.

1549
01:17:41,720 --> 01:17:47,799
Speaker 1: On Sunday at one, Sunday at one and carrier umbrella.

1550
01:17:48,640 --> 01:17:51,679
Speaker 1: Sunday at one does not sound hot. Saturday at one

1551
01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:53,160
Speaker 1: sounds hot.

1552
01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:55,160
Speaker 3: Can we switch the game to Sunday?

1553
01:17:55,479 --> 01:17:56,200
Speaker 1: Why is that?

1554
01:17:56,880 --> 01:17:58,400
Speaker 3: Can't you call the shots?

1555
01:17:59,520 --> 01:18:02,680
Speaker 4: It's like, Sunday at one o'clock does not strike me

1556
01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:06,320
Speaker 4: as a hot day. Saturday at one o'clock in the afternoon,

1557
01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:07,839
Speaker 4: it's gonna be smoking.

1558
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:11,240
Speaker 3: I'll bring my water gun on the sidelines.

1559
01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:11,240
Speaker 1: That's right.

1560
01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:14,160
Speaker 4: Get an umbrella so you can have a little shade

1561
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:17,000
Speaker 4: or something. It's so it just strikes me and kid's day.

1562
01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:22,160
Speaker 4: Get brinkman, bring your water bottles. Don't anybody fall out.

Speaker 4: They carted him out. He had to get he got.

1565
01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:29,479
Speaker 4: He didn't get any water. He didn't drink drink any water.

1566
01:18:30,040 --> 01:18:31,880
Speaker 4: Kids are like that. You gotta tell them when to drink.

1567
01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:32,960
Speaker 4: They don't know when they're thirsty.

1568
01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:35,719
Speaker 3: Gatorade give them the sweet stuff.

1569
01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:38,920
Speaker 4: But that yeah, so, yeah, the whole crew tomorrow will

1570
01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:41,360
Speaker 4: be in with Sean McDermott talked to him before the game.

1571
01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:44,439
Speaker 4: The mock game tomorrow is what they'll go through on

1572
01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:48,000
Speaker 4: the field, which is it's a lot of fun because

1573
01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:49,439
Speaker 4: as a player, it's just.

1574
01:18:50,920 --> 01:18:51,760
Speaker 1: A mock game. Is this.

1575
01:18:51,880 --> 01:18:57,559
Speaker 4: You don't run any plays. What they do is you're like,

1576
01:18:57,880 --> 01:19:01,599
Speaker 4: you're dressed like us. Yeah, and it's like, all right,

1577
01:19:01,680 --> 01:19:04,720
Speaker 4: kickoff team go or no, we lose the toss. Were

1578
01:19:06,080 --> 01:19:09,320
Speaker 4: they defer we lose the toss? They defer, we're returning

1579
01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:12,360
Speaker 4: the ball. Right, kickoff return team out on the field.

1580
01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:16,320
Speaker 4: So eleven guys better run out on the field, right,

1581
01:19:16,880 --> 01:19:19,080
Speaker 4: So eleven guys run out there. Kickoff team. Okay, they

1582
01:19:19,080 --> 01:19:22,200
Speaker 4: count them. Everybody's there, he said, now, so and so

1583
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:23,719
Speaker 4: so and so and so and so.

1584
01:19:25,240 --> 01:19:27,679
Speaker 1: Are hurt? Who's got them? Yep?

1585
01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:29,439
Speaker 4: So you have to know that if that guy goes

1586
01:19:29,439 --> 01:19:31,400
Speaker 4: down to the care I gotta run out. So those

1587
01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:33,559
Speaker 4: three guys come off, three their backups go in. So

1588
01:19:33,600 --> 01:19:36,360
Speaker 4: you're all set that way. Then it's like, okay, offense

1589
01:19:36,560 --> 01:19:40,040
Speaker 4: go so Trubisky who's starting, and the guys though all

1590
01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:43,840
Speaker 4: go out. There better not be twelve guys in the field, right, yeah,

1591
01:19:43,880 --> 01:19:45,280
Speaker 4: So then they can come on. Now so and so

1592
01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:46,360
Speaker 4: and so and so got hurt?

1593
01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:46,760
Speaker 1: Who's in?

1594
01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:49,160
Speaker 4: So those guys come on, you know, and you know,

1595
01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:53,360
Speaker 4: then they go punt team and then then they do

1596
01:19:53,479 --> 01:19:56,439
Speaker 4: the opposite. Now defense on the field, same thing, so

1597
01:19:56,479 --> 01:19:57,720
Speaker 4: and so and so and so got hurt?

1598
01:19:57,720 --> 01:19:58,880
Speaker 1: Who's in? They got to know.

1599
01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:01,880
Speaker 4: And then and they go through the entire game, like

1600
01:20:01,920 --> 01:20:04,360
Speaker 4: two minute, who's in on two minute offense? Who's in

1601
01:20:04,400 --> 01:20:11,760
Speaker 4: on short yardage? And you know, cable personnel, you know,

1602
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:13,960
Speaker 4: Alec Anderson goes out or would go out, you know,

1603
01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:16,840
Speaker 4: all of that stuff. They'll have all the different personnel combinations,

1604
01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:18,519
Speaker 4: they'll run through them, and then somebody gets hurt.

1605
01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:18,960
Speaker 1: They have to know.

1606
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:22,200
Speaker 4: They go in on that personnel grouping and that it's

1607
01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:22,920
Speaker 4: it's fun.

1608
01:20:23,040 --> 01:20:25,120
Speaker 3: It's extensive to know your stuff.

1609
01:20:25,439 --> 01:20:26,120
Speaker 1: It's a little bit.

1610
01:20:26,320 --> 01:20:28,280
Speaker 3: It's a little bit because if you don't, it's there's

1611
01:20:28,320 --> 01:20:29,360
Speaker 3: gonna be a problem.

1612
01:20:29,080 --> 01:20:31,760
Speaker 4: In game, right, which is what happens in games and

1613
01:20:31,880 --> 01:20:34,599
Speaker 4: preseason games notoriously. So it's it's an easy game. It's

1614
01:20:34,600 --> 01:20:40,080
Speaker 4: an easy day. They'll have meetings, they'll have a team meeting.

1615
01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:42,200
Speaker 4: I imagine, I don't know if they're gonna they'll probably

1616
01:20:42,240 --> 01:20:44,599
Speaker 4: let the veterans and everybody stay at home. They will

1617
01:20:44,600 --> 01:20:46,559
Speaker 4: probably won't take them to hotel. All the rookies and everything.

1618
01:20:46,600 --> 01:20:48,600
Speaker 4: They're in a hotel, but they'll probably have snacks and

1619
01:20:48,720 --> 01:20:52,880
Speaker 4: maybe a meeting there. But man, that's it. You gotta be.

1620
01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:54,799
Speaker 1: They'll have a deadline. You gotta be at the stadium

1621
01:20:54,840 --> 01:20:55,679
Speaker 1: by this time.

1622
01:20:57,439 --> 01:20:59,360
Speaker 3: Go through all that stuff in the stadium.

1623
01:20:59,240 --> 01:21:02,400
Speaker 4: And that's that. That's your only home game walkthrough. That's

1624
01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:03,839
Speaker 4: your only home game rehearsal.

1625
01:21:03,880 --> 01:21:05,400
Speaker 1: You got to know the road for two weeks, your

1626
01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:06,120
Speaker 1: pre game.

1627
01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:09,439
Speaker 4: You gotta know your PA Saturday, where your locker is

1628
01:21:09,479 --> 01:21:11,080
Speaker 4: going to be in the locker room. Most of these

1629
01:21:11,080 --> 01:21:13,400
Speaker 4: guys have no idea what the game day locker room

1630
01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:14,120
Speaker 4: even looks like.

1631
01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:16,800
Speaker 3: That's why you got the return of the balloon red.

1632
01:21:17,120 --> 01:21:19,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. That's true. They'll all know that. I

1633
01:21:19,160 --> 01:21:19,800
Speaker 1: forgot about that.

1634
01:21:19,800 --> 01:21:22,080
Speaker 4: We'll ch That's why they do the blue and red

1635
01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:25,040
Speaker 4: there so they can go in and get and yeah.

1636
01:21:25,360 --> 01:21:25,960
Speaker 3: Very important.

1637
01:21:26,439 --> 01:21:28,960
Speaker 2: All right, topic for you? Who are what do you

1638
01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:32,599
Speaker 2: have your eyes on? In Saturday's preseason game against the Giants.

1639
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:34,680
Speaker 2: We're going to go to the phone right now. Rich

1640
01:21:34,720 --> 01:21:37,160
Speaker 2: from Cheek to Waga has been hanging on, Rich, what

1641
01:21:37,200 --> 01:21:37,920
Speaker 2: do you got for us?

1642
01:21:39,320 --> 01:21:40,519
Speaker 5: Hi? Mandy, Hi, Steve.

1643
01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:43,800
Speaker 6: I want to talk about Curtis Samuel and I know

1644
01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:48,559
Speaker 6: he's a six million dollar capet this year. Two part question.

1645
01:21:49,439 --> 01:21:53,080
Speaker 6: If he goes on IR, does that count against the cap?

1646
01:21:53,360 --> 01:21:58,120
Speaker 6: And secondly, is there any possibility we could trade him

1647
01:21:58,160 --> 01:22:01,680
Speaker 6: in a fourth for future considerations to a team that

1648
01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:04,519
Speaker 6: would do that for us? I'd really like to see

1649
01:22:04,520 --> 01:22:07,920
Speaker 6: a young guy like Shavers or somebody playing. That's it

1650
01:22:07,920 --> 01:22:09,439
Speaker 6: for me. I'm going to hang up and listen.

1651
01:22:10,720 --> 01:22:11,639
Speaker 3: All right, thanks Rich.

1652
01:22:12,360 --> 01:22:15,160
Speaker 2: If a player goes on IR, it does still count

1653
01:22:15,240 --> 01:22:18,519
Speaker 2: against the team's salary cap In terms of trying to

1654
01:22:18,560 --> 01:22:19,799
Speaker 2: trade Curtis Samuel.

1655
01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:26,280
Speaker 3: We don't know what's going on. Yes, it's been tough.

1656
01:22:26,439 --> 01:22:28,960
Speaker 2: I was talking about it yesterday in practice to one

1657
01:22:29,000 --> 01:22:32,880
Speaker 2: of my coworkers. Curtis Samuel is somebody who popped out

1658
01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:35,679
Speaker 2: at the end of the season. Had a great playoff

1659
01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:37,680
Speaker 2: run with the Bills, but we didn't see much of

1660
01:22:37,760 --> 01:22:40,519
Speaker 2: him in season because he was dealing with injuries. You're

1661
01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:44,960
Speaker 2: hoping second year on this team, feeling better about the offense, healthy,

1662
01:22:45,360 --> 01:22:48,479
Speaker 2: doing your thing, building chemistry at Josh Allender and training

1663
01:22:48,479 --> 01:22:50,559
Speaker 2: camp practices, and we really haven't gotten that.

1664
01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:51,439
Speaker 3: From Curtis Samuel.

1665
01:22:51,479 --> 01:22:54,120
Speaker 2: He was out there for the beginning of training camp

1666
01:22:54,160 --> 01:22:56,479
Speaker 2: and then we haven't seen much of him. I think

1667
01:22:56,520 --> 01:22:59,000
Speaker 2: it's an important training camp for Curtis Samuel. I think

1668
01:22:59,000 --> 01:23:02,080
Speaker 2: he needs those reps with Josh Allen. It's a crowded

1669
01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:04,280
Speaker 2: wide receiver room right now. His guys are trying to

1670
01:23:04,320 --> 01:23:06,840
Speaker 2: fight for who are going to be the five in

1671
01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:09,960
Speaker 2: or the six in depending on how many that they keep,

1672
01:23:09,960 --> 01:23:12,960
Speaker 2: but will have to keep an eye on it. Sean

1673
01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:16,680
Speaker 2: McDermott was asked about where Curtis Samuel is at in

1674
01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:20,360
Speaker 2: terms of coming back from injury, and McDermott.

1675
01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:21,800
Speaker 3: Said that he thinks he's making.

1676
01:23:21,560 --> 01:23:24,639
Speaker 2: Some good progress, so hopefully that means he'll be back.

1677
01:23:24,479 --> 01:23:25,519
Speaker 3: On on the field soon enough.

1678
01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:27,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's been a struggle to keep him on the

1679
01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:29,680
Speaker 4: field and healthy. He's been effective when he is on

1680
01:23:29,760 --> 01:23:32,280
Speaker 4: the field. I think that's been one of the frustrating

1681
01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:35,000
Speaker 4: obviously one of the frustrating parts about his time here

1682
01:23:35,040 --> 01:23:38,600
Speaker 4: in Buffalos thus far. But I'll say this, when he

1683
01:23:38,720 --> 01:23:42,160
Speaker 4: is on the field, he's a good player, very good player.

1684
01:23:42,160 --> 01:23:45,920
Speaker 4: I don't know if I and you, yeah, for future considerations, Yeah,

1685
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:49,519
Speaker 4: you can trade any guy for future considerations in a

1686
01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:52,639
Speaker 4: bag of footballs or something like that. Future considerations means

1687
01:23:52,680 --> 01:23:54,880
Speaker 4: you're giving him, trading him for nothing and somebody's going

1688
01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:57,559
Speaker 4: to take his salary and that's it. You trade him

1689
01:23:57,560 --> 01:24:00,840
Speaker 4: for nothing, basically, And yeah, okay, could do that. But

1690
01:24:02,160 --> 01:24:05,479
Speaker 4: Curtis Samuel when he's healthy, I mean, people forget because

1691
01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:09,479
Speaker 4: his his contributions were really spotty last year, but when

1692
01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:14,160
Speaker 4: he was in there they were significant. He caught a

1693
01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:17,000
Speaker 4: pass in the Denver game and turned it into a

1694
01:24:17,040 --> 01:24:20,759
Speaker 4: fifty yard touchdown pass because he ran after the catch.

1695
01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:26,320
Speaker 4: They're not going to trade Curtis Samuel for nothing, and

1696
01:24:26,520 --> 01:24:29,240
Speaker 4: I think it will take a lot for one of

1697
01:24:29,280 --> 01:24:31,519
Speaker 4: these younger players now. Certainly the rooms full of guys

1698
01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:36,519
Speaker 4: that are that are capable, but if they your best

1699
01:24:36,560 --> 01:24:39,559
Speaker 4: hope for Curtis Samuel not being on the roster is

1700
01:24:39,680 --> 01:24:43,320
Speaker 4: for someone to outplay him. So if you want, he's

1701
01:24:43,360 --> 01:24:45,519
Speaker 4: not going to get traded, and he is a six

1702
01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:48,880
Speaker 4: million dollar cap hit. So I would say if I

1703
01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:50,960
Speaker 4: was you, I say, don't hope for a trade, hope

1704
01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:53,639
Speaker 4: for one of the young guys to emerge and squeeze

1705
01:24:53,720 --> 01:24:54,800
Speaker 4: him off, squeez him.

1706
01:24:54,680 --> 01:24:55,200
Speaker 1: Out of the roster.

1707
01:24:55,400 --> 01:24:57,840
Speaker 2: McDermott said, I feel like Curtis is moving in the

1708
01:24:57,880 --> 01:25:00,920
Speaker 2: right direction. Curtis ran a little but yesterday, so it

1709
01:25:00,960 --> 01:25:04,280
Speaker 2: sounds like he's feeling more comfortable moving straight ahead. McDermott

1710
01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:07,200
Speaker 2: did say the cutting piece and whatnot is still a

1711
01:25:07,280 --> 01:25:09,880
Speaker 2: work in progress for Samuel, so I don't know for sure,

1712
01:25:10,280 --> 01:25:13,120
Speaker 2: doesn't have a date in mind, but he's hopeful because

1713
01:25:13,160 --> 01:25:16,479
Speaker 2: Samuel is making some progress. We're gonna take a break,

1714
01:25:16,479 --> 01:25:19,200
Speaker 2: but when we return answering and reading some of the

1715
01:25:19,200 --> 01:25:21,599
Speaker 2: final answers off of our tweet sheet about who you're

1716
01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:24,680
Speaker 2: looking forward to watching in Saturday's preseason game at one

1717
01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:27,320
Speaker 2: o'clock against the Giant Stoke Go anywhere. We'll be right

1718
01:25:27,360 --> 01:25:30,479
Speaker 2: back next on one Bill's Live, represented by Clydehealth On'm

1719
01:25:30,479 --> 01:25:49,120
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills Radio. The final few minutes of one Bill's

1720
01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:53,839
Speaker 2: Live from Saint John Fisher University, Kiss it goodbye, because

1721
01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:58,959
Speaker 2: we'll be back at one Bill's Drive Friday afternoon throughout

1722
01:25:59,240 --> 01:25:59,719
Speaker 2: the season.

1723
01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:03,040
Speaker 4: Curtis Samuel's not going and the callers just a minute

1724
01:26:03,040 --> 01:26:05,160
Speaker 4: ago he asked about trade him and stuff. He's got

1725
01:26:05,160 --> 01:26:08,280
Speaker 4: a dead cap hit of twelve million, his base salary

1726
01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:09,160
Speaker 4: six point five.

1727
01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:11,240
Speaker 1: He's not going anywhere.

1728
01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:14,519
Speaker 4: There's an out maybe after this year, in twenty twenty six,

1729
01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:16,760
Speaker 4: where he could get you get away with just a

1730
01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:20,200
Speaker 4: three point four million dollar cap hit. Maybe that's a possibility.

1731
01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:21,800
Speaker 4: But they need him and they need him to play

1732
01:26:21,840 --> 01:26:23,639
Speaker 4: well this year, so he's not gonna go anywhere.

1733
01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:26,040
Speaker 2: Who or what are you keeping your eye on for

1734
01:26:26,240 --> 01:26:30,160
Speaker 2: Saturday's preseason game. We're go backing. We're going back to

1735
01:26:30,360 --> 01:26:32,360
Speaker 2: the tweet sheet from John.

1736
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:32,840
Speaker 3: He says.

1737
01:26:32,880 --> 01:26:37,040
Speaker 2: Stephen Gosnell is catching everything. Anxious to see that carry

1738
01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:41,920
Speaker 2: over to preseason games. His number is also providing good karma. Yeah,

1739
01:26:41,920 --> 01:26:45,120
Speaker 2: that's right. Steven Goswell has been fun to watch in

1740
01:26:45,160 --> 01:26:48,479
Speaker 2: training camp. This is a wide receiver who probably wouldn't

1741
01:26:48,479 --> 01:26:50,920
Speaker 2: have gotten the opportunities he's gotten. But there's been so

1742
01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:54,919
Speaker 2: many injuries in the wide receiver room that guys like Gosnell,

1743
01:26:55,000 --> 01:26:59,719
Speaker 2: guys like Tyrrell Shavers and Jalen Virgil, kJ Hamler, Deon

1744
01:26:59,760 --> 01:27:03,959
Speaker 2: Came Christian Wilkerson have had so many reps throughout practices

1745
01:27:04,160 --> 01:27:07,040
Speaker 2: and reps with Josh Allen, which a lot of these

1746
01:27:07,080 --> 01:27:10,400
Speaker 2: guys think is very helpful for putting on a show

1747
01:27:10,439 --> 01:27:11,719
Speaker 2: for the coaching staff to prove.

1748
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:14,080
Speaker 3: No, this is why I deserve a roster, Scott.

1749
01:27:14,720 --> 01:27:18,000
Speaker 4: You earn your opportunities, particularly here at this training camp

1750
01:27:18,040 --> 01:27:21,600
Speaker 4: and in this in the building, in this organization. But

1751
01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:26,479
Speaker 4: some guys have earned opportunities by getting drafted higher because

1752
01:27:26,479 --> 01:27:28,240
Speaker 4: they played better at the lower levels and that kind

1753
01:27:28,240 --> 01:27:30,160
Speaker 4: of thing. But Gosnel will come in. A guy like him,

1754
01:27:30,160 --> 01:27:32,880
Speaker 4: He's gonna get a chance. You could here's his career

1755
01:27:33,120 --> 01:27:35,439
Speaker 4: is gonna be a lot like Buffalo Chose. You're gonna

1756
01:27:35,439 --> 01:27:37,479
Speaker 4: he's gonna get a chance, and he's gonna blow it

1757
01:27:37,479 --> 01:27:39,120
Speaker 4: out of the water when he gets a chance to

1758
01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:42,040
Speaker 4: play in the preseason game. If that happens, then he

1759
01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:44,280
Speaker 4: goes to the next level and starts a preseason game

1760
01:27:44,360 --> 01:27:47,120
Speaker 4: or gets more opportunities, and if he keeps going, then

1761
01:27:47,120 --> 01:27:50,439
Speaker 4: he makes either the fifty three or he's on the

1762
01:27:50,439 --> 01:27:51,280
Speaker 4: practice squad.

1763
01:27:51,720 --> 01:27:53,200
Speaker 1: And then we've seen guys like.

1764
01:27:53,160 --> 01:27:55,840
Speaker 4: Shavers who hang around and you're on the practice squad

1765
01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:58,479
Speaker 4: and because you're working hard to do it, you get

1766
01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:00,320
Speaker 4: a game jersey and you're up for a game, and

1767
01:28:00,360 --> 01:28:02,840
Speaker 4: then your career takes off from there. You do well

1768
01:28:02,840 --> 01:28:04,679
Speaker 4: in that game, you play well, you get another start,

1769
01:28:04,720 --> 01:28:07,639
Speaker 4: and then something happens, you get another opportunity. So yeah,

1770
01:28:08,200 --> 01:28:11,360
Speaker 4: that's how it works. You got to keep making your

1771
01:28:11,439 --> 01:28:12,760
Speaker 4: opportunities work for you.

1772
01:28:12,840 --> 01:28:15,160
Speaker 2: Four one seven Mafias is anxious to see how the

1773
01:28:15,200 --> 01:28:18,800
Speaker 2: D line looks. Joey says, Kean Coleman, Joshua Palmer, Elijah Moore,

1774
01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:24,080
Speaker 2: Tyrrel Shavers, Joshua says, Landon Jackson, red helmet guy Javon Solomon.

1775
01:28:24,479 --> 01:28:27,600
Speaker 2: George says the DB's I'm really interested to see the

1776
01:28:27,720 --> 01:28:31,479
Speaker 2: rotation in the defensive line because the starters are going

1777
01:28:31,520 --> 01:28:34,960
Speaker 2: to play. Which starters will those be, We're not sure,

1778
01:28:34,960 --> 01:28:36,720
Speaker 2: but you will see guys who are going to get

1779
01:28:36,720 --> 01:28:39,880
Speaker 2: meaningful snaps in season playing in this week one game.

1780
01:28:40,200 --> 01:28:43,200
Speaker 2: One thing that I am really eager to see and

1781
01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:45,800
Speaker 2: I know we saw vanilla version of it last year

1782
01:28:45,880 --> 01:28:49,400
Speaker 2: because it was the new dynamic kickoff rule kind of

1783
01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:53,040
Speaker 2: being practiced before Week one last year during the preseason.

1784
01:28:53,160 --> 01:28:56,799
Speaker 2: The Bills have a new special teams coordinator and Chris Taber.

1785
01:28:57,000 --> 01:28:59,439
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see what they do on special

1786
01:28:59,479 --> 01:29:01,680
Speaker 2: teams in the first three weeks because maybe they are

1787
01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:04,559
Speaker 2: gonna show a little bit because it's his first taste

1788
01:29:04,760 --> 01:29:07,080
Speaker 2: being back in the NFL after taking a year off.

1789
01:29:07,160 --> 01:29:09,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, that the dynamic kickoff is going to be changed,

1790
01:29:09,320 --> 01:29:11,840
Speaker 4: so we'll see. It's gonna be fun though, and we're

1791
01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:13,960
Speaker 4: gonna get our first look at the guys coming up.

1792
01:29:14,439 --> 01:29:16,880
Speaker 2: Yep, can't believe it. We've had such a fun time

1793
01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:20,760
Speaker 2: in Rochester. Thank you to everybody at Saint John Fisher University.

1794
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:23,640
Speaker 2: We'll be back tomorrow in Orchard Park from one to

1795
01:29:23,680 --> 01:29:23,920
Speaker 2: three
