Come on, Oh, you don't even 8 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 2: break us. 9 00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 3: You put If you put, I was telling people, is 10 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 3: if you put Rooler panels up at every NFL training camp, 11 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 3: you could power the entire planet for a year a year. 12 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 3: It is so smoking hot at every NFL training camp. 13 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 2: And so is Steve Apparent give you an example. 14 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 3: Practice started and Saint John Fisher, bless their art. This 15 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 3: whole grand stand was full, I mean packed r twenty 16 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 3: minutes into training camp practice. Everybody's like vacant. It's over. 17 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 3: They're standing over in the shade. 18 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 2: It retains a lot of Oh my gosh, I mean 19 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 2: it reflects some of it. You want to get a 20 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 2: tan on your chin, sitting aluminum bleachers, get a great 21 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,559 Speaker 2: neck tan. Oh my god, is just unbelievable. 22 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 3: It's not that bad. 23 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 2: I'll say that next week it's gonna be eighty nine ninety. 24 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: Then it's gonna be bad. 25 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 3: I'll say this though, this may be a memorable training 26 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 3: opening practice of training camp because of the offense. They 27 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 3: lit them up. 28 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, the offense, they lift them up. Here is here 29 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: was the most impressive thing about the offense. So they 30 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 2: ran a lot of red zone today, which is a 31 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 2: typical starting and jumping off point for Sean McDermott training camps. 32 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 2: He doesn't want receivers in DBS running long ten, fifteen, 33 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 2: eighteen yard routes. It's all sports science, so it's all 34 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 2: a matter of ramping them up. So let's do a 35 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 2: lot of short route stuff inside the ten yard line. 36 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 2: And that's what they did to a great degree. And 37 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: the thing that impressed me the most was the timing 38 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 2: of the passing game today. Usually first couple of days 39 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 2: the rhythm isn't there. There's execution in fits and starts. 40 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 2: The execution by the offense in the passing game today 41 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 2: Day one was on point. 42 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 3: They they must have been working together. 43 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 2: They did. Yeah, they did it. 44 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 3: Kind of shows Josh got them all together, extra time, 45 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 3: extra credits down in Nashville. They they did. They looked 46 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,959 Speaker 3: sharp and guys, I mean Brown and I were standing 47 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 3: there and you know, we think about things maybe a 48 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,119 Speaker 3: little differently than everybody else does, so we I wasn't 49 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 3: even worried about I got got his feet in or 50 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 3: got his feet out, or touchdown here, maybe he was 51 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 3: out of bounds or tip of whatever. I'm telling you 52 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 3: what they caught. They were catching impossible balls to catch, 53 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 3: and they made every tough catch. They made easy catches. 54 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 3: Nobody was dropping stuff they I mean, it was I 55 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 3: gotta say, That's why I brought it up. It was impressive, 56 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 3: it really was. Now I get it, you're playing against 57 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 3: the defensive backfield that's new to each other and they 58 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 3: don't get to practice together like the offense does. 59 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 2: Correct. 60 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 3: But man, oh man, it was. It was good. 61 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:31,119 Speaker 2: I got yeah. 62 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 3: I will. 63 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 2: I will say that of the lot of receivers who 64 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 2: made plays, Kinkad and Coleman were the two most active. 65 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 2: They made the most plays cumulatively over the course of practice. 66 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: And then King Kate had about four touchdowns in the 67 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 2: red hard hard to think Coleman had arguably two. So 68 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: and and right away Coleman is putting his bully ball 69 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 2: moss ability on display. You know, out jumping d bees 70 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: who are tight in coverage, and it just doesn't matter. 71 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 2: So very quickly, Keon Coleman is establishing himself as a 72 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 2: receiver who is open even when he's not open. We're 73 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 2: gonna hear from quarterback Josh Allen about today's practice and 74 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 2: what he thinks of Keon Coleman. In just a little bit. 75 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: He's gonna be addressing the media, so we'll turn to 76 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: that in short order here. But he did he is 77 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 2: going to comment on Keon Coleman where he basically talked 78 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 2: about how Coleman is handling the learning curve. So you 79 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 2: want to stay tuned and listen for that. But Kinkaid 80 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 2: to me looked like a man amongst boys on this 81 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 2: drill in red zone. I mean, he was making some 82 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 2: dbs spin their heads around. They didn't know where he was. 83 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 2: He worked leverage well. As soon as the dB committed 84 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 2: and flipped his hips, he turned his route the other way. 85 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 2: Really really good separation by Kincaid on a few occasions 86 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 2: during that period. Didn't do a lot of run game. 87 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 2: They mixed a run call in here and there, nothing extraordinary. 88 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: And then defensively, I know I mentioned this to you 89 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 2: while we were out there watching. The defense was extraordinarily quiet. 90 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 91 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 2: I mean from the time McDermott got here, Steve, all 92 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 2: you heard from defensive coordinators and McDermott himself is before 93 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 2: the snap talk talk. They're shouting all the time, communicate talk, 94 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 2: and they were rather quiet today. I was surprised. And 95 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 2: maybe this is a byproduct of not having Ployer and 96 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 2: Hide on the back end doing all that conversation. Somebody 97 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 2: else is gonna have to fill that vocal void and 98 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 2: get guys lined up and feeling confident about the play call. 99 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 3: That's right, And I'll say this too. You're It's gonna 100 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 3: take some time, no question, but I'm it you couldn't 101 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 3: get a better day from the offense than you out today. 102 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 3: You're right about the defense. And there was a couple 103 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 3: of plays, and I have to be honest too, there 104 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 3: was a couple of plays where Josh had to run 105 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 3: out of the pocket because they were covered up. There's 106 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 3: a bunch of those, and of course Josh made some 107 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 3: outstanding plays outside the pocket, and the coaching staff let 108 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 3: the play play on a little bit. Just a little 109 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 3: bit of that going on as well. But I think 110 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 3: all in all, I'll say this, that really athletic at 111 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 3: the edges of the offense, really athletic. Kincaid runs routes 112 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 3: like a much smaller dude, but when the balls in 113 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 3: the air, he becomes, you know what, he is a 114 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 3: big six to four tight end. There was a lot 115 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 3: going on out there tonight, a lot of new guys 116 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 3: that we were watching and keeping close tabs on that 117 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 3: you just want to get a feel for. And you know, 118 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 3: it was hard to do that when the offense was 119 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 3: playing and clicking as well as it was today. Yeah. 120 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 2: I mean Mark Mark wesveld Is scaling at a touchdown 121 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: catch in the back of the end zone when he 122 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 2: saw kJ Hamler during the seven on seven portion of 123 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 2: red zone have a beautiful snare of a catch. Khalil 124 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 2: Shakira had another one too, and then Tyrrell Shavers, who 125 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: was on the practice squad last year, the six four 126 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 2: and fourteen pound kid, had a couple of touchdowns, including 127 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 2: a one handed grab that he pinned against his shoulder 128 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 2: to pull it in and complete the play. So yeah, 129 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: I mean it was it was for a practice number one. 130 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 2: It was a banner day, yeah, for Buffalo's passing game, 131 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 2: just in terms of timing and in terms of execution. 132 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 2: And I'm eager to hear from Josh Allen here in 133 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: just a little bit, because he's got to be pretty 134 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 2: excited based on the early returns here on day one alone. 135 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, and he you know, he looked his arm is fresh. 136 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 2: I mean that. 137 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 3: I mean the offensive line we were watching, We were 138 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 3: standing behind those jokers, and they are huge. Their offensive 139 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 3: line is really big. We've been saying it. Now this 140 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 3: kind of reinforces what I've been thinking. This was gonna 141 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 3: look like. I felt like this offense, this team in 142 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 3: the early going of this season was gonna hang on 143 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 3: the prowess of Josh and the offense. The offense was 144 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 3: gonna kind of like take over things and make and 145 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 3: give them a margin of error. On the defensive side. 146 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 3: It looks, you know, after an hour and a half 147 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,119 Speaker 3: a training camp, it looks like, you know, so far. Yeah, okay, 148 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,679 Speaker 3: that's right. That doesn't mean it's not gonna change pretty 149 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 3: quickly once they get the pads on. But good first 150 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 3: day for the offense. And I'll tell you what too. 151 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 3: I think the defense. It looks really fast upfront, linebackers 152 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 3: looked really good. I was. I was just impressed with 153 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 3: a lot of what I saw. And I know red 154 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 3: zone is a little tough for you know, because you 155 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 3: go off the page in the red zone is a touchdown, 156 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 3: so and you know it's kind of hard for the defense. 157 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 3: They're already backed up. But man, oh man, great day 158 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 3: to to start training. 159 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, just to describe the two Coleman touchdowns really quick 160 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 2: from today. He had a toe drag in the back 161 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: of the end zone and beat Kyrie Eelam on the play. 162 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 2: And then he had an acrobatic grab by the front 163 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 2: right pylon near the sideline on the far side against 164 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 2: JaMarcus Ingram. 165 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 4: Uh. 166 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 2: The one referee ruled him out of bounds. The other 167 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: one said he was inbounds, so there's a little controversy there. 168 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 2: But uh, you see right away what a loose athlete 169 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 2: Keon Coleman is and not afraid to jump right in 170 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 2: and make some plays in some contested situations, which look, 171 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 2: that's one of his calling cards. And so if Bills 172 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: fans came today hoping to see something from Keon Coleman, 173 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 2: they got it. 174 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 3: They sure did.

So one or two 240 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 7: trips that come away with with touchdowns as opposed to 241 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 7: field goals greatly improve your chances of winning. 242 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 6: Having smaller options in them situations. 243 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 7: Well, if you saw me throwing it after with Mac Harlan's, 244 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,199 Speaker 7: I can't throw the ball high enough. 245 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 9: You know, even if I get them jump and it's. 246 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 7: Still not where they want it, I gotta I gotta 247 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 7: keep getting it as high as possible and creating as 248 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,959 Speaker 7: much separation as as I can against those dbs and 249 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 7: utilize their their height and their tools to go up 250 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 7: and catch a ball. So it's something we're gonna keep 251 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 7: working on. I'm excited obviously, really haven't had guys of 252 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 7: that stature, you know, in the past, so it's it's 253 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 7: gonna take some adjusting to get used to, don't get 254 00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 7: me wrong, but excited. 255 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,559 Speaker 9: Nonetheless, what kind of balance is it? 256 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,559 Speaker 2: You want to have that sense of urgency every day 257 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 2: to stick to this definite word. 258 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 8: Both were also work to do guys for the patients 259 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 8: as required. 260 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 9: Is that topay? 261 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 7: I don't think so. I think we had a great ota, 262 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 7: We had a great, great summer. We got together and 263 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 7: through and you know, everybody understands the standard that we 264 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 7: have set here and it starts from the top with 265 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 7: Coach McDermott making sure that you know, we understand in 266 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 7: O t as and in meetings that you know, training 267 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 7: campus is for our team to build our identity physically, mentally, 268 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 7: and emotionally and spiritually for that matter, to come out 269 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 7: here and learn who we are. But at the same time, 270 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 7: there's one job to get done, and that's to win 271 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 7: a Super Bowl. And putting in the work you know, 272 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 7: in the spring and the summer is going to pay 273 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 7: dividends to right now, and we got to keep continuing 274 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 7: to work hard and focus on and just trying to 275 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 7: trying to be the best versions of our sales each 276 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 7: and every day. 277 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,599 Speaker 2: Of going through this. 278 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 10: Rosters are all board, and how much can you draw 279 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 10: on some of the ross ups where receiver that you've 280 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 10: had experienced the nest. 281 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 9: I mean, I think just. 282 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 7: Just repetition is just just references from games, like, hey, 283 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,839 Speaker 7: remember what you did against so and so two years ago. 284 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 7: I don't really have that now. I've got that with 285 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 7: with Khalil and Dawson, but really nobody else. So it's 286 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 7: learning on the fly, but making sure that you know, 287 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 7: we're adapting as we go.

Really every guy has a different 303 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 2: skill set.

He's not trying to be anybody else 497 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 7: but Mac Collins and guys respect him for that. 498 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 9: I know, I sure as hell do. So it's good 499 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 9: to have a guy like that on your team. Barefoot. 500 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 7: I've gone barefoot a little bit. I go barefoot in 501 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 7: the weight room, you know. I gotta get them grippers out. 502 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 19: You talk about camp out in the dorms, getting to 503 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 19: know each other. How much more important is that this offseason, 504 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 19: when you have such a new roster of a lot of. 505 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 5: Turnover and things like that. 506 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 9: Yeah, and I think it's just as important as as 507 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 9: any other year. 508 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 5: You know. 509 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 7: And even though we've only had some of these guys 510 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 7: for a few months, I feel like I've known him 511 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 7: for a long time. That's how that's how close and 512 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 7: quickly we've bonded. And again we're gonna continue to get 513 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 7: better each and every day. We've got to keep having 514 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 7: days like today where you know, we're in the ball 515 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 7: where it needs to be, guys are catching it and 516 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 7: if we don't, we learn from it and move on 517 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 7: to the next day. 518 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 9: Thank you. Yes, all right. 519 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 2: So that's Josh Allen addressing the media here on day one, 520 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 2: and I would say probably the most encouraging thing he 521 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: said was what a quick study Kean Coleman is, just 522 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 2: from being around him and his observations. So, yeah, that's 523 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 2: It's one thing when you have enormous physical ability, but 524 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 2: when you can match a football i Q with it, 525 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 2: then you really have something. 526 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 3: Well, you get it. It's invariably what happens to young players. 527 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 3: That happened to me. It happens to a lot of guys. 528 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 3: You play at college and stuff, and you're really good 529 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 3: on your college team, and you're really good athletically and 530 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 3: all of that, and then you come to the NFL 531 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 3: and all of a sudden you learn that it's not nobody. 532 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,400 Speaker 3: All of a sudden, the combined forty is the last 533 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 3: forty you ever run. In your entire life, and now 534 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 3: it's all from your neck up, and you got to 535 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 3: learn how to play the game the way the team 536 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 3: wants you to play the game. You got to learn 537 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 3: the words, you got to learn the techniques. And you know, 538 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,479 Speaker 3: saw a lot of young players go, he couldn't make 539 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 3: it in the NFL, and they what goes? They technique 540 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 3: me to death. You know, I couldn't. I couldn't. Every 541 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 3: time I'd do something, they had an answer for it, 542 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 3: you know. And it's it's a game that is played 543 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 3: from the neck up. Once you get the physical part 544 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 3: that once the physical part can get you in the door. 545 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:23,159 Speaker 3: And it's nice to hear Kean Coleman is up to speed. Uh. 546 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 2: Just to update Matt Mulano's situation, he is full go, 547 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 2: according to coach McDermott. Participated in everything out here at 548 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 2: practice today, including TeamWorks seven on A seven, eleven on 549 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 2: eleven and the only thing that coach McDermott said regarding 550 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 2: Milano's availability was as they go, they may have to 551 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 2: manage his reps maybe a little bit later on in camp. 552 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 2: So other than that, though, for all intents and purposes, 553 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 2: he is full go. Coming back from that broken leg 554 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 2: that he suffered last season in week FoST Big. 555 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 3: That that means he's probably means that he's the point 556 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 3: where and of course he's earned this right as well. 557 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 3: Say hey, how you feeling today? 558 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 6: Sam? 559 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 3: Good? All right, go and just turn him loose. And 560 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 3: then he says, you know what, give me a day. 561 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 3: You know I would I wouldn't give to have that thing. 562 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,360 Speaker 3: But yeah, that's I think that's as good a news 563 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 3: as you had coming out of the training camp. On 564 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 3: the personnel side, and I will. 565 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,719 Speaker 2: Say on the defensive side today, I tried to make 566 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,360 Speaker 2: a point to look at Vaughn coming off the ball 567 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 2: a couple of times, and there was good burst. Now 568 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 2: everybody's legs are fresh and everybody feels great coming in 569 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 2: day one. We'll see how that progresses. But I was 570 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 2: I was encouraged by some of the getofs that he 571 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 2: had at the snap during those red zone team periods. 572 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 2: So that's an encouraging sign as well. Got a topic 573 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 2: of discussion for you today at eight h three zero 574 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 2: five point fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two 575 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 2: five point fifty. Who has the most approve during this 576 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 2: Bill's training camp could be a player, could be a 577 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 2: side of the ball, could be a position group, could 578 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 2: be a coach who has the most to prove during 579 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 2: Bill's train here this summer eight oh three oh five 580 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 2: point fifty one eighty eight five fifty two five point 581 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 2: fifty should also mention that through the course of this 582 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 2: three hour program here today, we'll also be hearing from 583 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 2: General Manager Brandon Bean, who's addressing the media today, and 584 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:19,640 Speaker 2: we'll also have Chief Operating Officer Pete Gwellian a little 585 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 2: bit later on. Just hopped on the job earlier this 586 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 2: spring and is just getting settled in now, so it'll 587 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,880 Speaker 2: be good to catch up with him to see what's 588 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 2: on the top of his agenda as he heads into 589 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 2: his first full season with the Bills since two thousand 590 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 2: and nine, which was his last stint with the Bills 591 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 2: in Orchard Park. So jam pack show for you today, 592 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,479 Speaker 2: but we are taking phone calls at eight o three 593 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 2: oh five point fifty one eight eight eight five fifty 594 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 2: two five point fifty. Who has the most approved during 595 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 2: Bill's training camp? I think for me it's probably Bobby Babbage. 596 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 2: I mean, I think that coach McDermott believes in him wholeheartedly. 597 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 2: But if he wants to give him the key to 598 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 2: the defense in addition to the title. I think when 599 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 2: they run college periods out here and it's like, all right, 600 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 2: we got two minute drill, Bobby, you're calling it. He's 601 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 2: got to be on his p's and q's with all 602 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 2: of that, not only that time, but the next time, 603 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 2: the time after that, and if he gets the keys 604 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 2: for a preseason game. 605 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 3: And I'll say this too, it's interesting to you. I 606 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 3: saw immediately when I walked out there, he was dressed 607 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 3: all in red, red shirt, red hat. Because it's important 608 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 3: for him. He's the kind of coach he wants that 609 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 3: guy's eyes on him. So I would have when Bernard 610 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 3: is out there calling the plays, you look over the sideline. 611 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 3: Bobby Babbage is the easiest guy on the sideline to find. 612 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 3: And a lot of coaches will do that. We've had coaches, 613 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 3: remember my old coach, Jerry Glanville. He used to wear 614 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 3: boots and a duster and a cowboy hat on the side. 615 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 3: You knew where that guy was, right, you could, and 616 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 3: you kind of make a joke about him. You need 617 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 3: you to find him once in a while. And that's 618 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 3: and then there's that's part of the whole thing, and 619 00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 3: and Babbage knows he's cutting all. He's making himself easy 620 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 3: to see, easy to find. His communication is going to 621 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 3: be open. I mean he is doing every little detail, 622 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 3: right down to the hat he's wearing, to make himself 623 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 3: easy to find and make sure he can do it 624 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 3: because in these practices, I don't think there's just absolutely 625 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 3: no question Babbitt's going to be calling all the defenses 626 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 3: at practice as much as he can to get to 627 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 3: get his feet wet and get ready for that time 628 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 3: when he does it in a game. 629 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 2: What about you, like anybody that comes top of mind? 630 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 3: Well, just to prove, I was watching the same guys 631 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 3: that any regular Joe Schmoe fan was. I was watching 632 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 3: Dalton kin Kid and KEONK Coleman every time they came 633 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 3: out this in that red zone stuff. It's so difficult 634 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 3: to get any separation. The windows are very tight. Coleman went, 635 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 3: I'll tell you he gets high to get the ball, 636 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 3: high points it well. But he gets there fast. I 637 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 3: mean he's like he's up, he elevates really quickly, explodes 638 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 3: off the ground. And Kincaid, Uh, It's it's rare that 639 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 3: I've ever seen a guy his size is tight and 640 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 3: his sides running as nifty routes down tight and close 641 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 3: as he does. They just seem to step ahead today 642 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 3: and it's and it's good to see. And you know, 643 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 3: I'll tell you too too. Khalil Shakir made an unbelievable 644 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:21,719 Speaker 3: catch right in front of us. 645 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, I don't know that he got both feet down, 646 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 2: but he snared that thing. Don't care, but he caught it. 647 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 3: And you know, and I'll say this too, what receivers 648 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 3: coach will tell you this for the receivers. Hey, you, 649 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 3: it is inexcusable not to make every effort for you 650 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 3: to get your feet in. And if you're doing that 651 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 3: and the balls out of bounds, it's not your fault. 652 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, the pass did carry him over the sideline, 653 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 2: for sure. 654 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 3: It's the past.

Just let us know. 684 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 2: At eight oh three, five fifty let's go to the 685 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 2: phones and leading us off there today is Mark in 686 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 2: West Seneca. What do you got for us? Mark? 687 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 20: Gentlemen, the best day of the year football is packed, awesome, 688 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 20: awesome and as the best news of the day Mlonald's 689 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 20: full goal. That was awesome to hear you guys say that. 690 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 3: Ye. 691 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 20: So, as far as your topic today, I've called actually 692 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 20: about something else I want to bring up, and I'm 693 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 20: really curious as to what you guys think about it. 694 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 20: But as far as the topic goes, the talk has 695 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 20: been all summer about the most approved is the wide 696 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 20: receivers and obviously the DBS. That's pretty obvious. 697 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 21: I'm both. 698 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 20: I think my observation is the receivers have a little 699 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 20: bit of an advantage because they're working with Josh, a veteran, 700 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 20: a leader, the leader of the team, who probably is 701 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 20: not only working with them, but probably leading that group 702 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 20: a little bit too understood. They work as a group 703 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 20: and they have their own meetings, but I'm sure Josh 704 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 20: has a lot of input with what those guys are doing. 705 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 20: The DBS. The first day at camp understood, they don't 706 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 20: get the practice together, understood, But somebody is going to 707 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 20: have to step up back there on the back end 708 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 20: and become their voice. And hopefully it's just a matter 709 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 20: of not a lot of cohesion, new guys and all that, 710 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 20: and this camp goes along. So I'm going to be 711 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 20: really curious to see who's the one that's going to 712 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 20: step up and really take charge back there, because they're 713 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 20: definitely going to need it. I mean, that's all we 714 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 20: ever talk about with McDermott's teams with the back end 715 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 20: on defense, and the topic I wanted to bring up 716 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 20: with you guys real quick is there's been a lot 717 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 20: of talk the last few days about quarterbacks around the 718 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 20: league on ESPN and what they're going to get, and 719 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 20: they keep bringing up Prescott in Dallas that he's going 720 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 20: to play out the year and that when he's free 721 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,800 Speaker 20: and clear and can go anywhere and negotiate with anybody, 722 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 20: they're talking about him getting paid six over sixty million 723 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 20: a year, and I mean, the money for quarterbacks is 724 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 20: getting outrageous. Granted the revenue they're expected to go up 725 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 20: quite a bit too, but still over six I think 726 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 20: whoever would do that with Dak Prescott is going to 727 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 20: have buyer's remorse fairly quickly after they would sign a 728 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 20: contract like that. And I'm just curious as to what 729 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 20: you guys thought about that. Have a great day, Diet guy, 730 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 20: Well thanks. 731 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 3: Dak Prescott has Dak Prescott has set record after record 732 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 3: after record franchise record for Dallas. He's his number. A 733 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 3: lot of his numbers are better than Rogers Stabauchs. They're better, 734 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 3: way better than Troy Aikman's. They're better than Tony Romos. 735 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 3: Dak Prescott has it up some massively productive seasons for 736 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,959 Speaker 3: the Cowboys. Now it hasn't translated into wins like Troy 737 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:12,439 Speaker 3: Aikman's did, but stat wise, Dak Prescott's got a case 738 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:18,399 Speaker 3: for the Cowboys. So and you know, and this just then, Mark, 739 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 3: you know this. Everybody knows this as well as I do. 740 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 3: The money always, it's always outrageous every era, when they 741 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 3: start setting the new market for quarterbacks or whatever whatever, 742 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 3: it's always outrageous money. It's just the way. That's the 743 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 3: world we live in. And it takes more money nowadays 744 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 3: to be outrageous than it did when I played. Jim 745 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,359 Speaker 3: Kelly signed an outrageous. Do you remember when they signed 746 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,359 Speaker 3: Jim Kelly to his first contract, the season ticket line 747 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,760 Speaker 3: went around the building because they had made the commitment 748 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 3: to Jim. So all of that stuff goes into the mix. 749 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 3: And yeah, quarterback Money's gonna do nothing but go up 750 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 3: and up and up. Now, as far as the wide receivers, right, 751 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 3: we made that point earlier. The wide receivers can practice 752 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 3: with Josh and they can practice route combinations and all 753 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:07,320 Speaker 3: of that stuff with Josh and do all of that. 754 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:09,879 Speaker 3: DB's they don't get to do that. They don't. It's 755 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 3: hard to find quality competition. All the dbs do really 756 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 3: is train. They don't practice training to get in shape 757 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:20,799 Speaker 3: and be in shape because you can't have a whole 758 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 3: defensive backfield back just on your own, you know, because 759 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 3: then you got to have the whole offensive side. It's 760 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,919 Speaker 3: hard to get that together logistically in the off season 761 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 3: to come out and let let's have our defensive backfield 762 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:32,399 Speaker 3: go out and take a few reps together. 763 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 2: What are you gonna dot too? 764 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, what are you gonna do? You can't do it. 765 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 3: You gotta have a quarterback. You gotta have wideouts, tight ends, 766 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 3: and you gotta be able to run routes that you're 767 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 3: gonna see at an NFL level. Otherwise, what are you 768 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 3: gonna do go against high school kids? I mean, that's 769 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 3: the that's the problem for dvs. So they can train 770 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 3: and get in shape, but they can't practice. Wide receivers 771 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 3: and quarterbacks can do both. They can train and they 772 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:54,880 Speaker 3: can practice, and that's why I think we got off 773 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 3: to the start we did today. 774 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think the other element there too was 775 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 2: something that Sean McDermott brought up the morning because he 776 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 2: was asked about Mike Edwards, and Edwards, by mcdermot's own admission, 777 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 2: was supposed to be in the starting lineup here at 778 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,879 Speaker 2: one of the safety positions, but after he missed all 779 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 2: of OTA's and mini camp with a shoulder injury, it 780 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 2: pretty much compromised that. And I expected him to kind 781 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 2: of be a veteran voice back there, but he has 782 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 2: to get more time on the job before he's going 783 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 2: to get that opportunity, even though he is a veteran player, 784 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,399 Speaker 2: and I wouldn't be surprised if that materializes in time, 785 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 2: but here at the outset of camp that is not 786 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 2: the case. And you know, we can't talk about you 787 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 2: know who's repping where and who's lining up where. We 788 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 2: can't do any of that stuff during training camp. It's 789 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 2: all privileged information. But I would hope sooner rather than 790 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:55,440 Speaker 2: later that Mike Edwards stays healthy, makes a move and 791 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,720 Speaker 2: runs that thing on the back end. Because he's coming 792 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 2: from two pretty simil systems with the two last teams 793 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 2: he played for Todd Bowles in Tampa, Spagnolo in Kansas City. 794 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 2: There is some carryover between those two schemes and this 795 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 2: one here in Buffalo. So hopefully the time loss due 796 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 2: to injury in the spring doesn't cost him now going forward. 797 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's it will sort of out. If he's the 798 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 3: guy that's supposed to be out there, he'll make it 799 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 3: out there and earn his way back onto the roster. 800 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 3: But that's one of the things, and it's hard to 801 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 3: sit through if you're a fan. Let's you know, you're 802 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:29,359 Speaker 3: the fans were always like, no, no, just put the guys. 803 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 3: You know we're going to be starting to put them 804 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,800 Speaker 3: out there. They don't do it that quickly, and that 805 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,840 Speaker 3: easily here with this culture with Sean McDermott, you got 806 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,399 Speaker 3: to earn everything you get and that's why the guy. 807 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 3: That's why he maximizes this his rosters that he's on, 808 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 3: even the top guys have got to compete and they 809 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 3: got to earn their reps to get back on the field. 810 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 3: And that's what Mike Edwidge is doing. So we'll see 811 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 3: in short order hopefully the best guys on the field. 812 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:57,960 Speaker 3: But they got to get into a position where they 813 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 3: can earn their way back. So yeah, where they're sitting 814 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 3: right now, and this early in training camp when guys 815 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 3: have missed a bunch of OTA, and let's face it, 816 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 3: the OTA is in the mini camps. That's one hundred 817 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 3: percent of the work that was available to do and 818 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 3: you miss all of it. Guys are hundred percent ahead 819 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 3: of you, even though in the big scheme of things 820 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 3: is probably you know, five percent of the of the 821 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,839 Speaker 3: total work, it's still one hundred percent of what you've 822 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 3: done and you've missed all of it. So you got 823 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 3: to pay that price. 824 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 2: Now, let's get back to the phones and we go 825 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,360 Speaker 2: to Bobby in Buffalo and next, what's up Bobby? 826 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 17: Hey, guys, how you doing today? 827 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 6: Good? 828 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 17: Good listen? I got a question guys now, I just 829 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 17: want to know you know, since since Stefon Diggs is gone. 830 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 17: My question is this, My question is is is josh 831 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 17: Allen going to rely on that number one receiver this 832 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,920 Speaker 17: year like he did? Is Stefan Diggs or of the 833 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 17: or or is or is or or or or Are 834 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 17: the Bills going to rely on Josh Allen Moore to 835 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 17: get more production out of the offense this year because 836 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 17: as a fan, that's what I want to see. I 837 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 17: want to see more production out of the Bills offense 838 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,400 Speaker 17: this year than I ever did before. Okay, answer that 839 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,759 Speaker 17: question for me, guys, take it away, have a good day. 840 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's probably that's the sixty four dollars question, Bobby, 841 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 3: And you're right now. I'll say this, though, they've been 842 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 3: pretty productive so far. Nobody in the last four years, 843 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 3: Nobody in the NFL scored more points in this offense. Nobody, 844 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 3: not Mahomes, not Lamar, not de Tech, nobody. So over 845 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 3: the last four years, this offense has been more productive 846 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 3: than anybody's. But I know exactly what you mean. I 847 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:36,400 Speaker 3: think we won't know the answer to your question until 848 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 3: we see this thing take the field because at this 849 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,800 Speaker 3: point I know, you know, Shaki's going to get some 850 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 3: a lot of targets you know, kin kid's going to 851 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 3: get a ton of targets. And who that other guy 852 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 3: is or whether two guys are, whether it's Samuel and 853 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 3: Coleman or Claypool and Hollins, who knows, We don't know, 854 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:56,439 Speaker 3: but I will say this, You're right, there's nobody there 855 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 3: that is strictly just by being on the team at 856 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 3: a place where Steph Diggs was where you're going to 857 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 3: throw him the football no matter what. 858 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I would say this, if the if there 859 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 2: is a number one target that emerges, it's going to 860 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 2: be Kincaid. He had ninety three targets last year and 861 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 2: caught seventy three balls. That's a high catch rate number one, 862 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 2: and that's productive for a guy who didn't really get 863 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 2: consistent time on the field until Dawson Knox got hurt 864 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 2: in week six, so he was eased into he would 865 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 2: a workload. If he right from the jump, he would 866 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 2: have had over one hundred targets as a rookie. So 867 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,359 Speaker 2: if you want to look for that number one guy, 868 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 2: I think it's at the tight end position. It's going 869 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 2: to be Kincaide this year. 870 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 3: It may it may be, and I you know, you 871 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:45,959 Speaker 3: don't want to do the you know, everybody's like, don't 872 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 3: you know, it's like it's like Kelsey and Mahomes. I mean, 873 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:50,040 Speaker 3: it's okay to have a number one. 874 00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:50,920 Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong with that. 875 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 3: Inside, on the on the formation, there's nothing wrong with it. 876 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 3: And I'll say this too. You've seen it, particularly in 877 00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,759 Speaker 3: the even in the red zone, where Kincaid's got the 878 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 3: ability to line up outside the numbers and win. That's rare. 879 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 3: So you know, I don't do that too much with him, 880 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 3: and I don't know if they did it at all 881 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 3: last year, but that's a guy that has a unique 882 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 3: skill set. I'm kind of with Brownie. I think it's 883 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:20,800 Speaker 3: gonna be a hard decision not to throw it to 884 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 3: that guy. 885 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and as far as Josh, I don't think there's 886 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 2: necessarily more put on him. Sure he has to raise 887 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:28,879 Speaker 2: the level of the players around him, but that's every 888 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 2: quarterback that comes with the job. I will say that 889 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 2: without a number one in the receiving corps, who's demanding 890 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 2: the ball or who you have to feel you have 891 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:39,720 Speaker 2: to feed the ball if he hasn't caught a pass 892 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 2: or been targeted in a quarter and a half, that 893 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 2: goes away. Now without Diggs here and it allows Josh 894 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,080 Speaker 2: Allen to just play the play and distribute the football accordingly. 895 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 2: So that's the other benefit. Got to take a break here, 896 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 2: more of your phone calls when we return Steven Iowa, 897 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:54,839 Speaker 2: Jerry and Lancaster will get to you when we get 898 00:42:54,840 --> 00:43:12,799 Speaker 2: back here on One Bill's Live. Stay with us. Back 899 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 2: here on one Bill's Live, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you, 900 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,359 Speaker 2: and gonna get right back to the phones where we're 901 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:21,359 Speaker 2: asking you today. Who do you believe has the most 902 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 2: to prove in this Bill's training camp? Could be a player, 903 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 2: could be a coach, could be a position group. You 904 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 2: tell us at eight O three oh five, fifty open 905 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,440 Speaker 2: lines for you, we go to Steve in Iowa. X. 906 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:34,279 Speaker 2: What do you got for Steve? You're on one Bill's Live. 907 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,839 Speaker 22: Guys, thanks for taking my call. I hope everyone's well. 908 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 22: I think, from an individual point of view, my two guys, 909 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 22: kier Eli and von Miller have the most approved, and 910 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:47,439 Speaker 22: I think they will. I think they have the most 911 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 22: approved for obvious reasons. So I won't get into it 912 00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 22: and let Steve address that. As far as a positional group, 913 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 22: and I think the d backs, but not necessarily because 914 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,400 Speaker 22: they can't do it. I'm thinking more like a leadership 915 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:03,400 Speaker 22: perspective with Poyer and Hign. I think those guys have 916 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 22: to step up from a leadership point of view and 917 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:09,760 Speaker 22: take charge on the field. Thanks, So listen to your comments. 918 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the second player, Kayir. 919 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 2: And who's the other one he was saying, Kayr and 920 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 2: von Miller? 921 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:16,239 Speaker 10: Oh? 922 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 17: Vin? 923 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:16,799 Speaker 2: Yeah? 924 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 3: Absolutely? 925 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 10: Uh? 926 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 3: Kaye's uh. And we all know about when we've talked 927 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:23,839 Speaker 3: to Ad Nauseam about Vaughan what people can expect from him. 928 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 3: But Kaye is a different story. He's one who has 929 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 3: for the first couple of years of his career flown 930 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 3: under the radar because he hasn't seen the field and 931 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,479 Speaker 3: and you know a lot of people say, well, what's 932 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 3: the deal and are are putting it on him. He's 933 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 3: going to get a chance now with a fresh set eyes, 934 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:41,400 Speaker 3: fresh defensive coaching staff, to get out and prove that 935 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:45,439 Speaker 3: he belongs. I would agree. I'd agree with Steve. He's 936 00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:51,920 Speaker 3: Kayer has an enormous opportunity to resurrect himself, uh and 937 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:54,640 Speaker 3: get off the depth chart and get into the starting lineup. 938 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 3: And I think I think this training camp is going 939 00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 3: to be enormous for him, no question. 940 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:02,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, And we heard coach mcderm address Kaye's status specifically 941 00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,600 Speaker 2: when he said this morning, it is a clean slate 942 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 2: for Kyrie Elam and he'll be ready to go. It's 943 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 2: interesting I mentioned this on the show last week. Just 944 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 2: through a friend of a friend at a get together, 945 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:17,280 Speaker 2: I ran into, of all people, Jordan Travis, the Florida 946 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:20,440 Speaker 2: State quarterback who's now third or fourth string quarterback for 947 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,799 Speaker 2: the Jets, a fifth round draft choice. He was high 948 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 2: school teammates with Kyrie Elam, and I asked him about 949 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 2: Kye and he's like, I'm just telling you he's not 950 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:30,880 Speaker 2: going to be denied. He's like, I know what his 951 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,399 Speaker 2: mindset is, and I know how determined he is. He's 952 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,480 Speaker 2: not going to be denied. Hopefully that proves to be 953 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:40,680 Speaker 2: the case, and he challenges Rasul Douglas or Christian Benford 954 00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:42,880 Speaker 2: for a starting role at outside corner. He's got the 955 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 2: first case scenario, he's the first guy off the bench 956 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 2: in case of an injury. 957 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 3: He's got the athleticism. We know that he's elite athletically 958 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 3: and we've seen flashes of that when he has made 959 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 3: it on the field. So you know, hopefully he turns 960 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 3: out to be this guy that people are like, well, 961 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 3: where's this guy? Ben? You know that would be great. 962 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 2: And as for Vaughn, like I said, I watched him 963 00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 2: on a few snaps today. The burst looks good. The 964 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 2: proof will be once the pads get on. They're not 965 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 2: on yet, so we're gonna have to kind of with 966 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 2: whole judgment. 967 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, v on that one. Von's in a weird spot 968 00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 3: because you know, he could play great, but unless he 969 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,920 Speaker 3: gets numbers, people are gonna be like, eh, he's And 970 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 3: that's I don't know if that's fair, but it's the 971 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:23,719 Speaker 3: ways I think that's the way it's going to be. 972 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 3: And you're right the DB's as a group, he asked about, 973 00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:30,839 Speaker 3: you know, the leadership and stuff. Yeah, you're Brownie said 974 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 3: it earlier. It seems like you've got a lot of guys, 975 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 3: particularly the safeties group, who are still not quite ready 976 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 3: to assert themselves failing it out. This is my deal. 977 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 3: Here we go and start great because you can stand 978 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:47,319 Speaker 3: behind We were behind the end zone today in red 979 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,360 Speaker 3: zone and you didn't hear anybody yelling. You didn't hear 980 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 3: the defense. You couldn't hear the defense screaming. Usually those 981 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 3: guys communicate constantly and is it at the top of 982 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,239 Speaker 3: their lungs and it was a little bit quiet today. 983 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 2: Let's go to Jerry and Lank ask your next what's 984 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 2: up Jerry? 985 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,399 Speaker 4: How are you doing there? Guys afternoon we're talking about 986 00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:08,000 Speaker 4: the biggest thing to prove, and it's to proved to who, 987 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:13,400 Speaker 4: But it's coaches mostly, and I think Matt Smiley has 988 00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 4: an opportunity to prove a lot of things. Number One, 989 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:21,839 Speaker 4: with the rule changes, He's gonna decide how we play 990 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:23,799 Speaker 4: a kickoff and how we do this, and it's gonna 991 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:27,000 Speaker 4: affect roster spots. There's gonna be guys that we keep 992 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,800 Speaker 4: because they fit whatever system he has and however we 993 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:36,239 Speaker 4: cover kickoffs. So his ability to adapt to that is 994 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 4: a big thing. And the trust that Sean McDermott will 995 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:42,400 Speaker 4: give him by watching through this training camp in preseason 996 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,279 Speaker 4: is going to be huge. There's a I don't think 997 00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 4: the NFL was three phases for the last couple of years. 998 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 4: I think there was punning, a lot of fair catchers 999 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:53,680 Speaker 4: kickoffs were nil. But I think this kickoff thing now 1000 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 4: is going to change the dynamics of how you can 1001 00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,279 Speaker 4: make the team. There's guys out there that maybe used 1002 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:03,760 Speaker 4: to be not considered coverage guys. But with a new lineup, 1003 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:06,920 Speaker 4: I don't even know what a on site kicks can 1004 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:10,360 Speaker 4: look like. Or guys were gonna have out there, so 1005 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 4: they might be assessing a fringe player and say, hey, listen, 1006 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 4: this guy can do X Y Z on the system 1007 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:21,280 Speaker 4: we have, and he might be on the squad inside 1008 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 4: on the practice rocks. I mean, there, it opens up 1009 00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:26,360 Speaker 4: a whole new thing. And I'm gonna actually watch kickoffs 1010 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,320 Speaker 4: this year, yeah. 1011 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:31,800 Speaker 3: You and everybody else. That's gonna be the most interesting 1012 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,320 Speaker 3: thing about the preseason. Can you imagine opening kickoff of 1013 00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 3: the preseason, like we're all gonna be on pins and 1014 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,879 Speaker 3: needles thying that what's it going to look like? Will 1015 00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 3: probably be as probably be disappointed. I mean, it'll probably 1016 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:46,160 Speaker 3: turn out to be okay, all right, Yeah fine, Because 1017 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:50,320 Speaker 3: I don't think they're gonna let themselves leave themselves. The 1018 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:52,400 Speaker 3: NFL is not gonna leave itself open to a loophole 1019 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,279 Speaker 3: in the rules where somebody's gonna all of a sudden say, oh, 1020 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 3: they're scoring a touchdown every time you kick to them. 1021 00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:59,239 Speaker 3: There's not gonna be any of that happening. But you're right, 1022 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 3: I don't think we know the kind of athletes they're 1023 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 3: gonna need to cover kicks. And I don't know that 1024 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 3: the athletic abilities of the guys returning kicks are the 1025 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:09,919 Speaker 3: front line guys, not the kick returner, but the guys 1026 00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,279 Speaker 3: on the return team blocking for him. I don't know 1027 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:15,960 Speaker 3: that those characteristics have changed a lot. I just don't know. 1028 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,960 Speaker 3: You've got to get to the You gotta ask yourself 1029 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:23,880 Speaker 3: some hard questions about do we want ten offensive lineman 1030 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 3: because we need him on kickoff return? Do we want 1031 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 3: some defensive linemen out there? We are we gonna do that? 1032 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:32,439 Speaker 3: Or are we gonna put like I'm just saying finger 1033 00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:34,520 Speaker 3: quotes because I used to athletes out there. You know 1034 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:36,319 Speaker 3: what I mean? Are you gonna put skilled guys out there? 1035 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:41,520 Speaker 3: DB's tight ends, running backs, wide receivers and you know, 1036 00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:46,360 Speaker 3: to cover that ground, it's a huge question mark, and 1037 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:48,640 Speaker 3: you know Matt Smiley's got to attack it, and you're 1038 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:50,320 Speaker 3: right he is. He is under pressure. 1039 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 2: He does have some stuff to prove. Number One, that 1040 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 2: you can crack the code faster than anybody else in 1041 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:57,279 Speaker 2: the league on what gives you an advantage on the 1042 00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 2: new kick return and then to kind of rebound from 1043 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:03,560 Speaker 2: what was a very uneven season for Special teams last year. 1044 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:05,960 Speaker 2: I mean they were up and down. I mean Tyler 1045 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,920 Speaker 2: Bass people forget about this. He was Special Teams Player 1046 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 2: of the Month in September and then it kind of 1047 00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:14,719 Speaker 2: got a little rocky after that. Sam Martin was a 1048 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,640 Speaker 2: Special Teams Player of the Week and it got a 1049 00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:20,040 Speaker 2: little rocky for him at times. And we saw kicks 1050 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 2: get blocked last year, saw long returns against We. 1051 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:25,880 Speaker 3: Lost a game on a twelve men on the field against, 1052 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 3: a field goal against Denver. 1053 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 2: Lost in overtimes. That Jets in Week one on a Punrichoss. 1054 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:32,040 Speaker 3: Lost in overtime to the Eagles after you know, giving 1055 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:34,239 Speaker 3: up a fifty nine yard and it was a heroic kick, 1056 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,719 Speaker 3: no question. You gotta get a piece of that, any 1057 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:42,879 Speaker 3: kind of piece of it. And the rainstorm. Yeah, there's 1058 00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:44,839 Speaker 3: a lot in Special teams, And like I said, it's 1059 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 3: not so much these days about a great a guy 1060 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 3: making a great play as it is somebody taking advantage 1061 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 3: of a big mistake. And I'd like to see it 1062 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:57,600 Speaker 3: get back to where a guy can actually go out 1063 00:50:57,600 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 3: there and do some stuff. 1064 00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:01,080 Speaker 2: Break time for us here, but our number two of 1065 00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 2: our three hour edition of One Bill's Live here on 1066 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 2: day one of training camp.

Let's go 1075 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:15,760 Speaker 2: to his comments now day. But there's an NFL executive 1076 00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:18,080 Speaker 2: who reportedly called Josh Allen overrated. 1077 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:23,279 Speaker 6: Thoughts on that, Uh, Josh, I don't know where to start. 1078 00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 13: It's it's frustrating you try to ignore this stuff, Like 1079 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:33,959 Speaker 13: but Josh is going into year seven and there's still 1080 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:34,719 Speaker 13: the naysayers. 1081 00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:38,720 Speaker 6: I don't get it. If I was going to use rated, 1082 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 6: I would say underrated before I would say overrated. And 1083 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:42,440 Speaker 6: I know I'm biased. 1084 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 13: He's our guy and love him every single day. These 1085 00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:49,840 Speaker 13: things that come out there. I know people love the 1086 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:52,719 Speaker 13: rankings of whoever. But when you don't put your name 1087 00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:55,240 Speaker 13: to it, or and you make comments. 1088 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:58,320 Speaker 6: Like that, like who is this executive? Executive is a 1089 00:52:58,360 --> 00:52:58,839 Speaker 6: loose term. 1090 00:52:59,719 --> 00:52:59,880 Speaker 2: I was. 1091 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:02,719 Speaker 6: I refer to as executive well before I should have been. 1092 00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:06,920 Speaker 13: And so I just say, if you're not going to 1093 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:10,560 Speaker 13: put your name on it, we really shouldn't validate it. 1094 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 13: I know it gets validated because it's on ESPN, and 1095 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:16,800 Speaker 13: you know, I'm not a fan of that style, and 1096 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:21,160 Speaker 13: you know, I wish, I wish the writer wouldn't include 1097 00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 13: a comment like that. I just I don't think Josh 1098 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:27,000 Speaker 13: deserves that. And again I'm biased, but I'm tired of 1099 00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:27,360 Speaker 13: hearing it. 1100 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:29,960 Speaker 8: Why would you think anybody would think that? 1101 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 2: I mean, I know, you can't put yourself in the 1102 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:31,960 Speaker 2: guy's shoes. 1103 00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:37,839 Speaker 12: What wouldn't lead anybody to believe that he's for reading's. 1104 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 13: Sal There's idiots everywhere, right I you know, I don't 1105 00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 13: know until you put your name on it, I don't know. 1106 00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:52,120 Speaker 13: I just I think he's done plenty. But I think 1107 00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 13: part of it, so truthfully, is there are people that 1108 00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 13: did not. We all are well well aware when Josh 1109 00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:01,719 Speaker 13: came out, there are people that thought he was a 1110 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 13: bust or would not make it. For all the reasons 1111 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:09,359 Speaker 13: that they've listed over the years. And I just think 1112 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:13,439 Speaker 13: anytime someone thinks they got a crack, they're gonna say, see, 1113 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:18,120 Speaker 13: I told you so. See they're looking for things. You 1114 00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:20,759 Speaker 13: can look at any player in any sport and point 1115 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:24,800 Speaker 13: out negatives. No one is God or a robot, but 1116 00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:30,680 Speaker 13: Josh's positives don't even come close to the negatives. And 1117 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,759 Speaker 13: so for what he's done for this team, for what 1118 00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:35,960 Speaker 13: he's done in this league and his own accomplishments, to 1119 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:41,480 Speaker 13: say he's overrated and to point out a flaw here 1120 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 13: or there is. 1121 00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:44,960 Speaker 6: It's ignorant. 1122 00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:47,600 Speaker 2: Oh much as you. 1123 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:52,239 Speaker 10: Don't like the comment, you know, way what Josh is 1124 00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,719 Speaker 10: made up of? How much does Mighty his health is gone? 1125 00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:58,759 Speaker 10: Maybe not even help, but just as a reminder that 1126 00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:01,920 Speaker 10: they're still people out there that think this. 1127 00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:04,879 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, the good thing about Josh is he's 1128 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:07,279 Speaker 13: always felt the naysayers. I don't think there's a year 1129 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:10,680 Speaker 13: in the league that I know of where someone doesn't 1130 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:13,200 Speaker 13: want to point out something with him. I mean, even 1131 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:17,839 Speaker 13: going back to some of his early games. Is he's 1132 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 13: or a rookie or second year guy, he would make 1133 00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:24,360 Speaker 13: plays in a game, but if he made an you know, 1134 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,200 Speaker 13: a domb throw or you know, something like that. 1135 00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 6: He could have helped us win the game. 1136 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:31,520 Speaker 13: But that's the highlight or low light that they want 1137 00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:37,120 Speaker 13: to show because that validates, you know, their thoughts. 1138 00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:40,040 Speaker 6: And views on him. I don't know. Again, we've ignored 1139 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:40,839 Speaker 6: it for so long. 1140 00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 13: It's and I think the local media, you guys have 1141 00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:46,200 Speaker 13: all see Josh and realize not only is. 1142 00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:48,880 Speaker 6: The hell of a player, how great he is in 1143 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:49,439 Speaker 6: his role. 1144 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:53,000 Speaker 13: It's so hard to be a quarterback and have his status, 1145 00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:56,920 Speaker 13: and he stays after and signs every freaking autograph and 1146 00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 13: he just he's perfect in the role. We're lucky as 1147 00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:06,080 Speaker 13: hell to have him, and I get frustrated with it. 1148 00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:09,680 Speaker 13: But Josh has He's got a natural chip John, And 1149 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:13,640 Speaker 13: I don't think whether this person said this would change that. 1150 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:15,399 Speaker 6: I think he's coming in this year with a chip. 1151 00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:19,040 Speaker 6: He wants a title. He wants it. Every year that 1152 00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:21,719 Speaker 6: we don't win it. It's it's digging a deeper chip, 1153 00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:23,839 Speaker 6: and I think that's what motivates him. 1154 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 2: Bads a team, how aware, how much do you care 1155 00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:28,800 Speaker 2: put a chip on? 1156 00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,520 Speaker 19: Maybe the way a lot of outsiders are talking about 1157 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:35,040 Speaker 19: your team and the expectations for what they could possibly 1158 00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:36,759 Speaker 19: accomplish this season in particularly. 1159 00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:40,359 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean I think it's similar John, Like there's 1160 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:43,320 Speaker 13: been some years where they said we're the favorite or 1161 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:44,839 Speaker 13: we're supposed to win. 1162 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 6: That doesn't mean anything, It really doesn't. 1163 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,959 Speaker 13: Every team is a new team, and I know that's 1164 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:53,399 Speaker 13: you know, coach speak or GM speak, whatever you want 1165 00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 13: to say. 1166 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:57,120 Speaker 6: But this is a team that has a lot of 1167 00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:00,839 Speaker 6: new faces sides of the ball. 1168 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 13: But you know, this is what camp is so important. 1169 00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:06,120 Speaker 13: So why I love being here. This gives us a 1170 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,360 Speaker 13: chance to Obviously we can work on any game for 1171 00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 13: a practice field, but we can bond here and I 1172 00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:15,160 Speaker 13: think that's what Sean and I really value about going 1173 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 13: away and sitting in the calf. You know, I just 1174 00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 13: walked out of the calf and there's guys sitting there there, 1175 00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:23,200 Speaker 13: not rushing to get to the meeting and do honeydew 1176 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:24,439 Speaker 13: list or get home. 1177 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:28,320 Speaker 6: Their focus is solely on doing their job and getting better. 1178 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,360 Speaker 6: And this is a new team that'll have to define itself. 1179 00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:36,680 Speaker 13: So whether people predict us to be you know, six 1180 00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 13: and eleven or eleven and six or whatever it is, 1181 00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:43,800 Speaker 13: it really won't matter. Once games start. That's what you 1182 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:46,840 Speaker 13: guys are gonna be writing and reporting about it. 1183 00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 16: Was it for you to evaluate all these new faces 1184 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 16: and so many different variations. 1185 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:54,720 Speaker 6: It's it's always fun. I mean, camp has a different feel. 1186 00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 13: There's an agent here that I was talking to after 1187 00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 13: practice and he was like, hey, you know what camp 1188 00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:00,920 Speaker 13: is it? 1189 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 6: And how do you like this? 1190 00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 13: And I'm like, it's it's totally different from years ago 1191 00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:07,920 Speaker 13: when you come out here and we're we would do 1192 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:11,560 Speaker 13: nine on seven hitting drills, you know, thirty minutes off 1193 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:14,760 Speaker 13: of vacation, like just as coaches wanted to see who 1194 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:17,640 Speaker 13: had been working and who hadn't. But the rules probably 1195 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 13: for the better from an injury prevention standpoint. 1196 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:20,720 Speaker 6: We do a ramp up. 1197 00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:23,960 Speaker 13: I mean, today's probably the shortest practice we'll have until 1198 00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:27,560 Speaker 13: we do a mock game before we play whoever opener 1199 00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 13: is Chicago, maybe, But so to me, this is just 1200 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:35,280 Speaker 13: a continuation of the OTAs until we can get into 1201 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:39,400 Speaker 13: pads and evaluate the nine on seven drills, the one 1202 00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:43,600 Speaker 13: on one pass rush, you know, because football is this 1203 00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:46,680 Speaker 13: is not flag, this is tackle, and so there's a 1204 00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 13: lot of evaluation coming up once we get through this 1205 00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:50,240 Speaker 13: acclamation period. 1206 00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:51,480 Speaker 22: From this from the. 1207 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:53,120 Speaker 2: Point you hand it in the card to now and 1208 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:54,520 Speaker 2: I know it's only one practice here. 1209 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 6: Has anything surprised your back Keon and what you've seen 1210 00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:00,320 Speaker 6: of them, I didn't know it was as fun as 1211 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 6: he is. Uh, but he's Uh. 1212 00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:04,840 Speaker 13: I've had more text from people all over the country 1213 00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:07,200 Speaker 13: I'll talk to. I don't know how good your guy is, 1214 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 13: but I sure love watching his interviews and I'm like, well, 1215 00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:10,080 Speaker 13: hopefully his. 1216 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:11,760 Speaker 6: Game matches his interviews. 1217 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:15,960 Speaker 13: But he's he's smart, he works hard as competitive, and 1218 00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:20,120 Speaker 13: again I think that he will bring a physical element. 1219 00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:22,760 Speaker 13: He's got size. I think that'll be part of his games. 1220 00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:25,680 Speaker 13: I know they've been working a lot, even at the 1221 00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:30,280 Speaker 13: end of OTA's on you know, red zone stuff, jump, 1222 00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:33,880 Speaker 13: you know, fade balls. You know, obviously he'll he'll have 1223 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:37,560 Speaker 13: some chances to win on third and five, a slant 1224 00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:39,840 Speaker 13: or a you know whatever route you know, Josh and 1225 00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 13: Joe dial up. But I think hopefully as the pads 1226 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 13: come on that we see some of that versus what 1227 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:51,120 Speaker 13: you're going to see in you know, maybe you've got. 1228 00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 6: A speech or a super quick you know, Cole Beasley 1229 00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:55,880 Speaker 6: type or something like that. 1230 00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 12: Was it deliberate on your part at all? 1231 00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 23: The way that you attacked corner back this offseason to 1232 01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:04,920 Speaker 23: come in here with Rasul and Christian Kaye working his way, 1233 01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 23: and we see a lot of JaMarcus Ingram out there today, 1234 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:10,680 Speaker 23: not that like maybe veteran depth player that you've had 1235 01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:12,720 Speaker 23: in camps past. Was that deliberate to kind of get 1236 01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 23: a look at Kaye and JaMarcus a little bit more 1237 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:16,960 Speaker 23: maybe some of the other young guys. 1238 01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:19,120 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, we think we got some guys and 1239 01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 13: and yeah, it's a it's a big year for Kyeer 1240 01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:25,400 Speaker 13: and Christian both going into year three, our first full 1241 01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:28,840 Speaker 13: year with Rasoul. But you know, I think having Rasoul 1242 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:33,560 Speaker 13: as a KG veteran who's he's seen the highs and 1243 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:36,720 Speaker 13: the lows of this league, you know, from being drafted 1244 01:00:36,720 --> 01:00:38,920 Speaker 13: where he was he was drafted a i think a 1245 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 13: third round pick, to being released on a practice squad 1246 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 13: and and then working his way back up into a 1247 01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:48,920 Speaker 13: nice contract and starter status and you know, obviously a 1248 01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 13: guy that we traded for. So I think, you know, 1249 01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 13: you got two guys there that are third year players 1250 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:57,360 Speaker 13: that they know everything to expect and and we're looking 1251 01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:59,720 Speaker 13: for them to both take another step and then having 1252 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:02,680 Speaker 13: school here and and then some young guys around it. 1253 01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:05,560 Speaker 13: But listen, if we see a veteran that we think 1254 01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 13: we need to add and you know we can fit 1255 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:11,080 Speaker 13: them in. We would do that, but we like the 1256 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 13: competition too that we have. 1257 01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:13,080 Speaker 6: Right now, Matt. 1258 01:01:13,320 --> 01:01:15,479 Speaker 2: Tomorrow was out there getting some reps with the ones today. 1259 01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:17,680 Speaker 15: I mean, he decide from what happened, just as a 1260 01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:19,439 Speaker 15: player has development in year four. 1261 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:22,760 Speaker 6: What did you see from him? Yeah, he's he he 1262 01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:23,680 Speaker 6: came back hungry. 1263 01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:24,040 Speaker 5: You know. 1264 01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 13: One of the things he said to me, and I 1265 01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:29,440 Speaker 13: feel like he said it to others, is I got 1266 01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 13: through last year. Last year being like, you know, the 1267 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:34,959 Speaker 13: first right now, we were still talking about it's gonna 1268 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:37,440 Speaker 13: be different when he puts pads on, it's gonna be different. 1269 01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:39,680 Speaker 6: That first hit, and then got to get in the 1270 01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:43,200 Speaker 6: game in a stadium you know where that incident happened. 1271 01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:46,120 Speaker 13: No one's talking about that anymore. I know you're asking 1272 01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:49,680 Speaker 13: me the question because of that. But his focus was like, no, 1273 01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:53,320 Speaker 13: I want to go win a job. I want to 1274 01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 13: I want to show I can prove that I can 1275 01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:57,800 Speaker 13: start and help him make plays. And so that's been 1276 01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 13: his focus. Is you know, my and Jordan are gone. 1277 01:02:01,080 --> 01:02:04,560 Speaker 6: There's there's new faces around, and don't forget about me. 1278 01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:06,040 Speaker 6: I can still do it. 1279 01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:07,840 Speaker 3: You want to see him. 1280 01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:09,000 Speaker 21: All had been in six weeks. 1281 01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:11,800 Speaker 11: They say he's sort of cross that area and could 1282 01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 11: be apart. 1283 01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:16,680 Speaker 13: Yeah, I think similarly. You know last year we were 1284 01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 13: talking about Vaughn's ramp up and and and all that. Ryan, 1285 01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:22,520 Speaker 13: I think for him, it's just seeing. 1286 01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:25,360 Speaker 6: That explosive twitch that we saw a little bit. 1287 01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:27,880 Speaker 13: I think even vaugh referenced it maybe one time this 1288 01:02:28,320 --> 01:02:31,919 Speaker 13: offseason in the playoffs and maybe that that last game 1289 01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:33,120 Speaker 13: of season against Miami. 1290 01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:37,600 Speaker 6: Just seeing that that twitch that he's always had, uh fire. 1291 01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:39,560 Speaker 13: So I think that's what we'll want to see winning 1292 01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:41,720 Speaker 13: is one on ones, Like is he you know, you 1293 01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:43,919 Speaker 13: would love to see him get back not only winning 1294 01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:47,000 Speaker 13: his one on ones, but where people are like, hey, 1295 01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:49,000 Speaker 13: we got to have a plan for him, because if 1296 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:51,880 Speaker 13: if two people have to block him, or if they 1297 01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 13: got to chip him, somebody's gonna get you know, a 1298 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:57,960 Speaker 13: single block back. 1299 01:02:57,120 --> 01:02:59,280 Speaker 19: Out there today playing the team joneses up and just 1300 01:02:59,320 --> 01:02:59,920 Speaker 19: how do you go about it? 1301 01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:01,520 Speaker 3: Progress and to get him party. 1302 01:03:02,800 --> 01:03:07,160 Speaker 13: Yeah, Matt's done, man, he always We've got some We've 1303 01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:10,080 Speaker 13: had some guys back with tra Davius, his his rehab 1304 01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:12,640 Speaker 13: and just the way he attacked it, and it reminded 1305 01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 13: me of the way Thomas Davis and Carolina attacked three 1306 01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:17,200 Speaker 13: acls and things like that. 1307 01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:21,200 Speaker 6: But you know, I think he's the same way. 1308 01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:26,120 Speaker 13: He's attacked everything with his with his rehab, and this 1309 01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:28,680 Speaker 13: was probably as good as we could have hoped that 1310 01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:31,400 Speaker 13: he would be starting camp, and we got to manage him. 1311 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:33,360 Speaker 13: We've got to be smart, and he's a competitor. He 1312 01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 13: wants to He's gonna want to practice every day. 1313 01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:38,280 Speaker 6: I don't think that's realistic, but it's. 1314 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:40,720 Speaker 13: Good to see him out there. Like anything, I'm sure 1315 01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:42,840 Speaker 13: he's probably things he's going. Man, I used to make 1316 01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:44,880 Speaker 13: that player. I would have made that play if i'd 1317 01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:48,240 Speaker 13: you know. But I think over time we'll see him 1318 01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:52,000 Speaker 13: blending back in. But you know, we missed fifty eight 1319 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 13: last year. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that. 1320 01:03:55,960 --> 01:03:58,400 Speaker 13: So it's good to have him and that edge. You know, 1321 01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:00,800 Speaker 13: we all know he's not a he's not going to 1322 01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 13: give a long speech or anything like that. But Matt's 1323 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:06,479 Speaker 13: got a toughness and edge of presence that our defense needs, 1324 01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:07,240 Speaker 13: and so it's. 1325 01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:07,800 Speaker 6: Good to have him back. 1326 01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:12,840 Speaker 13: With Michael higher than you know, I think nothing has 1327 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:16,000 Speaker 13: really changed from you know, I think Micah made some 1328 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:20,600 Speaker 13: some straight up comments around his softball deal about where 1329 01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:23,360 Speaker 13: he was at, and we talked and he came out 1330 01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:25,760 Speaker 13: to practice one day, and we had talked before that. 1331 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,840 Speaker 13: But I think Mike's in a really good spot. He's 1332 01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:31,880 Speaker 13: enjoying his family time, but he's staying ready should the 1333 01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:34,440 Speaker 13: right opportunity come, you know, but we haven't. 1334 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:38,680 Speaker 6: We haven't done anything. In addition to where we kind 1335 01:04:38,680 --> 01:04:41,440 Speaker 6: of left things off in June, I's talked. 1336 01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:43,800 Speaker 2: About going to Nashville, had some of the offense come 1337 01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:44,560 Speaker 2: to Nashville. 1338 01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:46,800 Speaker 9: He said it was more than just being on the field. 1339 01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:50,760 Speaker 2: He talked about building relationships, going to dinner, all that. 1340 01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:51,320 Speaker 6: Kind of thing. 1341 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:53,680 Speaker 9: In the grand scheme of things. What does that mean 1342 01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:57,240 Speaker 9: to you or or to the team that they get together. 1343 01:04:57,040 --> 01:04:57,880 Speaker 3: And do things like that. 1344 01:04:58,280 --> 01:04:59,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, you obviously wanted to get the other 1345 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:01,440 Speaker 6: to throw and stuff out there. 1346 01:05:01,520 --> 01:05:04,479 Speaker 13: But it's exactly what I was referring to here, coming 1347 01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:07,400 Speaker 13: to Saint John Fisher, getting away, that's a getting away 1348 01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:10,440 Speaker 13: from there because when you're in your home city, like 1349 01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:13,000 Speaker 13: if if I don't leave when it's time for vacation, 1350 01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:15,320 Speaker 13: if I don't leave and go somewhere, I sent Buffalo, 1351 01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:17,760 Speaker 13: I'm gonna end up in the office or doing stuff 1352 01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:21,200 Speaker 13: around my house. This is kind of forced bonding. You know, 1353 01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:23,240 Speaker 13: when they went to Nashville and guys are hanging out, 1354 01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:26,480 Speaker 13: nobody's trying to get out to go do something with 1355 01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 13: someone else. 1356 01:05:27,440 --> 01:05:30,680 Speaker 6: And you know that that chemistry, that bond that you 1357 01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:32,560 Speaker 6: form off the field really. 1358 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:35,840 Speaker 13: Helps you, especially when adversity hits and every team's going 1359 01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:38,200 Speaker 13: to go through it a side of the ball and 1360 01:05:38,280 --> 01:05:41,040 Speaker 13: offense may go through a funk, and having that trust 1361 01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:44,360 Speaker 13: in that camaraderie helps you work through, you know, the 1362 01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:45,240 Speaker 13: highs and the lows. 1363 01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:50,959 Speaker 12: If if it changes or not change or differ from 1364 01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:55,360 Speaker 12: past camps. Knowing that you're coming in with forty three 1365 01:05:55,440 --> 01:05:59,240 Speaker 12: new additions, probably the most in twenty eighteen. I know 1366 01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:00,720 Speaker 12: some of those do and some of those some of 1367 01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:02,480 Speaker 12: the guys are coming back or Josh and kind of 1368 01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:06,080 Speaker 12: quarterback And but how how did how does your perception 1369 01:06:06,120 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 12: does your perception. 1370 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 18: Change it all? 1371 01:06:08,200 --> 01:06:10,640 Speaker 13: I mean, listen, I think John, some year there are 1372 01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:13,280 Speaker 13: going to be some newer faces, but I think we've 1373 01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:15,720 Speaker 13: also some of the guys that are here. I think 1374 01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:18,600 Speaker 13: we do have a good number of guys that maybe 1375 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:22,040 Speaker 13: weren't in in key starting roles that are here, and 1376 01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 13: then we have brought in competition. I think it's so 1377 01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:28,280 Speaker 13: important find as much competition as you can at every 1378 01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:32,160 Speaker 13: single position that you can afford, and and that will 1379 01:06:32,760 --> 01:06:34,400 Speaker 13: challenge each other to be the best they can be. 1380 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,800 Speaker 13: But it again, every team is also a new team. 1381 01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:41,040 Speaker 13: You're you're always going to have new faces. You know, 1382 01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:45,280 Speaker 13: if you look at most most NFL rosters four years 1383 01:06:45,320 --> 01:06:48,880 Speaker 13: ago to where they are today, it's it's crazy. 1384 01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:50,520 Speaker 6: The turner, you don't realize it. 1385 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:52,680 Speaker 13: And I think this just happened to be one of 1386 01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:58,040 Speaker 13: those years we tried to you know, we obviously twenty 1387 01:06:58,120 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 13: twenty was a heck of a year for us. We 1388 01:06:59,800 --> 01:07:01,240 Speaker 13: try I had to, all right, let's see if we 1389 01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:03,880 Speaker 13: can get over the top in twenty one, and you know, 1390 01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:06,080 Speaker 13: we brought Emmanuel Sanders in and a couple of pieces, 1391 01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:07,680 Speaker 13: but we had a lot of constant you know, and 1392 01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:10,080 Speaker 13: then we brought in Vaughan. We tried to add a 1393 01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:13,560 Speaker 13: couple pieces here or there each year and keeping the 1394 01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:18,520 Speaker 13: band together, you know, but due to age, contracts, the 1395 01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:22,120 Speaker 13: business itself, this just you know, was one of those 1396 01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:25,280 Speaker 13: years where there was probably a little more turnover of 1397 01:07:25,960 --> 01:07:30,600 Speaker 13: bigger names and you know all that some of the 1398 01:07:30,640 --> 01:07:32,600 Speaker 13: guys we mentioned, but I think we've talked about it before. 1399 01:07:32,720 --> 01:07:34,000 Speaker 13: It was a lot of guys that had a CE 1400 01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:37,280 Speaker 13: on their chest, and so we are counting on more 1401 01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:39,520 Speaker 13: of our younger players that have been here and what 1402 01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:42,240 Speaker 13: I was referring to to step up. 1403 01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:43,720 Speaker 6: Into some of these new leadership roles. 1404 01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:46,600 Speaker 19: Do you have a position particularly excited for? 1405 01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:48,920 Speaker 17: No. 1406 01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:51,960 Speaker 13: I think the biggest thing that I love now is 1407 01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:53,560 Speaker 13: we've been what we've been training. 1408 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:56,000 Speaker 6: We've had these guys since April. 1409 01:07:57,120 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 13: May for the rookies, and as I was saying earlier Catherine, 1410 01:08:01,600 --> 01:08:05,000 Speaker 13: it's shorts and T shirts, and so I am always 1411 01:08:05,080 --> 01:08:08,720 Speaker 13: excited to watch the padded periods, the plays that matter. 1412 01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:10,840 Speaker 6: I mean, we're not bringing guys to the ground, but. 1413 01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:15,240 Speaker 13: One on one, pass, rush, nine on seven, you know 1414 01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:17,800 Speaker 13: who's coming in there, thumping, just just some of those things. 1415 01:08:17,840 --> 01:08:20,040 Speaker 13: And then I think we're all gonna be interested. 1416 01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:22,240 Speaker 6: And I don't know how much we'll be able to. 1417 01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:25,760 Speaker 13: Tell in practice, but this first couple of preseason games, 1418 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:30,320 Speaker 13: how this kickoff thing is is gonna unfold, and you know, 1419 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:31,839 Speaker 13: I think that's gonna determine. 1420 01:08:32,560 --> 01:08:34,640 Speaker 6: You know, some of the final roster spots on all 1421 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:35,439 Speaker 6: thirty two teams. 1422 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:38,760 Speaker 16: As you know coach Babbie his approach. What are your 1423 01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 16: thoughts on Coach Babbitt's approach. 1424 01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:42,080 Speaker 6: Just his energy. 1425 01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:44,880 Speaker 13: I mean it's he's able to He's one of those 1426 01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:46,519 Speaker 13: guys that he's always had to bottle it up. 1427 01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 6: And you know, he's he wakes up like he like 1428 01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:53,040 Speaker 6: he slept with three cups of coffee. 1429 01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:56,400 Speaker 13: I mean, he's Bobby's just he's but it's great energy, 1430 01:08:56,439 --> 01:09:00,320 Speaker 13: it's positive. The hardest thing for him is probably not 1431 01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:03,040 Speaker 13: being his hands on at one position, you know, whether 1432 01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:05,920 Speaker 13: it was safeties or linebackers, doing the whole thing. But 1433 01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:10,280 Speaker 13: I mean just even our setup here, the way there's 1434 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:12,720 Speaker 13: the way the defensive staff is set up. It's right 1435 01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:15,160 Speaker 13: outside mine and Shawn's office. And I had my door 1436 01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:19,680 Speaker 13: open yesterday and he was going through everyone's drills. I mean, 1437 01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:22,240 Speaker 13: he had all their assignments down. I was getting off 1438 01:09:22,240 --> 01:09:24,280 Speaker 13: the phone. I could have but it was like he 1439 01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:25,280 Speaker 13: was sitting next to me. 1440 01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:27,600 Speaker 6: I mean he was. He probably was standing up, like 1441 01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:29,800 Speaker 6: coming out of his seat. So I love the energy. 1442 01:09:30,040 --> 01:09:31,880 Speaker 13: I think it's good.

I mean, you know the head coach 1472 01:11:10,560 --> 01:11:12,840 Speaker 2: isn't Dick Geron anymore, because that's who was head coach 1473 01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:15,840 Speaker 2: the last time you were around. Did you did you 1474 01:11:15,920 --> 01:11:17,800 Speaker 2: kind of walk down here and kind of marvel it? 1475 01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:20,800 Speaker 2: What's what's different because this stadium wasn't here either. 1476 01:11:20,920 --> 01:11:22,839 Speaker 14: Yeah, No, it's I think it started on the throughway, 1477 01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:24,559 Speaker 14: on the way down because it really was my first 1478 01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:27,800 Speaker 14: trip to Rochester since I've been back, and very you know, 1479 01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:31,160 Speaker 14: surreal driving down. A lot of memories kind of flooding back, 1480 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:32,640 Speaker 14: and then you get on campus You're like, wow, this 1481 01:11:32,760 --> 01:11:36,080 Speaker 14: is every you know. What's been kind of gratifying is 1482 01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:39,360 Speaker 14: that we built this with an eye towards the future 1483 01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:41,600 Speaker 14: and think this is where training camps are going, and 1484 01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:42,599 Speaker 14: it's really stood up. 1485 01:11:43,200 --> 01:11:43,360 Speaker 6: You know. 1486 01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:44,160 Speaker 2: So there's been a. 1487 01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:48,479 Speaker 14: Lot of great changes, it's evolved considerably, but it's still 1488 01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:51,040 Speaker 14: here and it's still a great fan experience, and it's 1489 01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:52,120 Speaker 14: still great for the football team. 1490 01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:54,559 Speaker 3: There isn't There is a movement around the league because 1491 01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:58,519 Speaker 3: the even over one Bill's Drive, the facility is so 1492 01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:01,920 Speaker 3: good that you could have a training camp there. But 1493 01:12:02,040 --> 01:12:04,280 Speaker 3: the problem is once they're off the field, and once 1494 01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:05,320 Speaker 3: they're out of the weight room and out of the 1495 01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:07,320 Speaker 3: training room and the meeting room and the classrooms, and 1496 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:11,680 Speaker 3: that's where training camp is. It's off the field and 1497 01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:13,920 Speaker 3: in the meetings where guys hang out all the time 1498 01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,920 Speaker 3: twenty four to seven. That really training camp is what 1499 01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:18,439 Speaker 3: it's supposed to be, right. 1500 01:12:18,560 --> 01:12:21,040 Speaker 14: Yeah, And I had I had breakfast with Sean this morning, 1501 01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:23,240 Speaker 14: and that's exactly what he brought up. That's what he 1502 01:12:23,360 --> 01:12:25,599 Speaker 14: loves about camp, you know, and especially when you're always 1503 01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:29,200 Speaker 14: integrating new faces, whether it's in the coaching staff, scouting staff, players, 1504 01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:31,720 Speaker 14: to bring get them away, you know, bring them here 1505 01:12:31,760 --> 01:12:33,920 Speaker 14: where everybody can kind of bond collectively. And it's the 1506 01:12:33,960 --> 01:12:36,240 Speaker 14: same thing on the business side, to get every day 1507 01:12:36,240 --> 01:12:37,680 Speaker 14: away and then you're right when by the time you 1508 01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:39,240 Speaker 14: get back, you're really kind of raring to go. 1509 01:12:39,360 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 3: So I was on the other side of that. 1510 01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:40,760 Speaker 6: In New York. 1511 01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:43,280 Speaker 14: We had camp at the facility which were There were 1512 01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:46,519 Speaker 14: some you know, economies, and it made sense for some reasons. 1513 01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:49,040 Speaker 3: But I love it. I'm like Sean, I love this setup. 1514 01:12:49,080 --> 01:12:49,400 Speaker 6: It's great. 1515 01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:51,760 Speaker 14: Rochester is really important to our business model. So to 1516 01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:54,439 Speaker 14: come here every year and do this impact our organization 1517 01:12:54,479 --> 01:12:55,280 Speaker 14: in a number of ways. 1518 01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:56,680 Speaker 3: It's like the old say, you have good a lot 1519 01:12:56,720 --> 01:12:59,360 Speaker 3: of good families go camping together, because yeah, you kind 1520 01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:02,040 Speaker 3: of survive it, right, I mean, you're out in a way, 1521 01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:03,920 Speaker 3: and whatever problems come up, you got to solve it 1522 01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:06,840 Speaker 3: between the genius, just like this. You know, you guys, 1523 01:13:07,080 --> 01:13:09,519 Speaker 3: you got to get along when yeah, you know. 1524 01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:11,360 Speaker 14: You're sitting down at the lunch table, you're passing each 1525 01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:13,160 Speaker 14: other in the hallway, you're going out at night doing 1526 01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:15,760 Speaker 14: things together. It's different than when you're there. You get 1527 01:13:15,840 --> 01:13:19,200 Speaker 14: so distracted sometimes when you're at the facility. This eliminates 1528 01:13:19,200 --> 01:13:21,799 Speaker 14: a lot of those distractions. And I love the environment 1529 01:13:21,880 --> 01:13:23,479 Speaker 14: from day one, and it's even better now. 1530 01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:28,519 Speaker 2: So back then, regionalizing the franchise was a necessity, not 1531 01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:31,160 Speaker 2: a priority. It was a necessity, and this was a 1532 01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:34,400 Speaker 2: big step in doing that. Now you've got a new 1533 01:13:34,439 --> 01:13:37,280 Speaker 2: stadium on the horizon. Is that the current step that 1534 01:13:37,360 --> 01:13:40,200 Speaker 2: we're taking now or is there something else that might 1535 01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:41,920 Speaker 2: be off in the distance. I'm not trying to put 1536 01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:44,599 Speaker 2: extra work on your people, but like down the line here, 1537 01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:47,479 Speaker 2: what do you think the next iteration of that might be? 1538 01:13:47,720 --> 01:13:49,280 Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean that's exactly why I'm here. You know, 1539 01:13:49,400 --> 01:13:52,200 Speaker 14: we talked about what's the long term plan for both 1540 01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:54,880 Speaker 14: of these franchises, how do you make them sustainable in 1541 01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:57,600 Speaker 14: this marketplace, and how do you continue to grow and 1542 01:13:57,720 --> 01:14:00,479 Speaker 14: be successful. So that's a big part of it. Rochester 1543 01:14:01,040 --> 01:14:03,839 Speaker 14: is still a priority. It will continue to be a priority. 1544 01:14:03,920 --> 01:14:06,080 Speaker 14: It's it's so close and Buffalo's a small market. So 1545 01:14:06,160 --> 01:14:09,880 Speaker 14: this regionalization thought process that started, you know, way back 1546 01:14:09,920 --> 01:14:11,840 Speaker 14: when is still critically important now. It's like what's the 1547 01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:15,040 Speaker 14: next frontier. We're thinking through a lot of that right now, Chris. 1548 01:14:15,080 --> 01:14:18,599 Speaker 14: There's a lot of iterative processes happening, looking at how 1549 01:14:18,600 --> 01:14:20,120 Speaker 14: we should be set up, looking at where we should 1550 01:14:20,120 --> 01:14:23,240 Speaker 14: be investing. But everything is towards the long term future 1551 01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:23,640 Speaker 14: of this sort of. 1552 01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:25,840 Speaker 3: Know this may be a you know, premature question, but 1553 01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:28,519 Speaker 3: how does this new stadium and the new facility impact 1554 01:14:28,680 --> 01:14:30,439 Speaker 3: all of that stuff in the future, because you could 1555 01:14:31,120 --> 01:14:33,800 Speaker 3: build it any way you want, right And how is 1556 01:14:33,880 --> 01:14:36,639 Speaker 3: that going to change that dynamic. 1557 01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:38,840 Speaker 14: I think it's a game changer. You know, it's a 1558 01:14:39,120 --> 01:14:41,200 Speaker 14: state of the art facility in a market like Buffalo. 1559 01:14:41,280 --> 01:14:43,880 Speaker 14: It's the most I think it's the biggest investment from 1560 01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:47,680 Speaker 14: a construction perspective in that city ever ever. So you know, 1561 01:14:47,800 --> 01:14:49,840 Speaker 14: to be able to transition into a building like that, 1562 01:14:50,040 --> 01:14:53,840 Speaker 14: and this brand has already elevated beyond local, regional and 1563 01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:57,040 Speaker 14: now it's a national and international brand. Now we've got 1564 01:14:57,080 --> 01:14:59,600 Speaker 14: a facility that complements that. So what are those opportunities 1565 01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:01,920 Speaker 14: to continue to grow and build off of that. It's 1566 01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:04,760 Speaker 14: it's the next step. Look, when I was here, you know, 1567 01:15:04,920 --> 01:15:06,599 Speaker 14: initially and we brought camp here, there were a lot 1568 01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:08,559 Speaker 14: of questions about whether the Bills would even be in Buffalo. 1569 01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:10,719 Speaker 2: I think those have been I think those have been answered. 1570 01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:15,439 Speaker 3: I'll say this too, that last about this uh this 1571 01:15:15,760 --> 01:15:20,599 Speaker 3: stadium thing, and what are the the is the vision 1572 01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:24,880 Speaker 3: for if there is any Because I'm an old guy, 1573 01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:30,479 Speaker 3: this is the next to the last season in Heimark 1574 01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:32,840 Speaker 3: in the old one, So you got to think of 1575 01:15:33,120 --> 01:15:35,000 Speaker 3: there's some sad goodbye is going to come when that 1576 01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:37,800 Speaker 3: shut those lights out for the last time. 1577 01:15:37,840 --> 01:15:39,680 Speaker 14: We've got a kind of a committee in place, and 1578 01:15:39,800 --> 01:15:42,400 Speaker 14: we're working through what does that transition look like because 1579 01:15:42,479 --> 01:15:45,760 Speaker 14: you know my position has been the last year that stadium, 1580 01:15:45,920 --> 01:15:48,840 Speaker 14: the current stadium needs to be celebrated almost like an 1581 01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:51,479 Speaker 14: anniversary in some ways. There's a lot of great moments 1582 01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:54,240 Speaker 14: that took place in that building. We need to find 1583 01:15:54,280 --> 01:15:56,920 Speaker 14: ways to celebrate transition and then get people excited about 1584 01:15:57,080 --> 01:16:01,360 Speaker 14: the next chapter. But I agree, close this chapter the 1585 01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:03,439 Speaker 14: right way is really important. We have a whole group 1586 01:16:03,520 --> 01:16:04,320 Speaker 14: working on that right now. 1587 01:16:04,400 --> 01:16:04,519 Speaker 6: You know. 1588 01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:07,080 Speaker 14: Fortunately for me, I just came out of creating a 1589 01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:09,920 Speaker 14: strategy around the hundredth season for the Giants and then 1590 01:16:09,960 --> 01:16:10,439 Speaker 14: you know, a ton. 1591 01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:12,240 Speaker 3: Of equity and how do you do that the right way? 1592 01:16:12,320 --> 01:16:14,439 Speaker 14: So there's a lot of learnings in that process that 1593 01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:17,040 Speaker 14: we're looking at as part of this transition out of 1594 01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:18,000 Speaker 14: that building into the new one. 1595 01:16:18,200 --> 01:16:20,600 Speaker 2: And then just to give fans an update on the 1596 01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:23,160 Speaker 2: current stadium, because I know you really had to sink 1597 01:16:23,160 --> 01:16:25,320 Speaker 2: your teeth into that quickly once you got your heat 1598 01:16:25,360 --> 01:16:28,000 Speaker 2: of feet on the ground here in Orchard Park. Where 1599 01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:31,320 Speaker 2: where is the progress? Where would you peg the progress? 1600 01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:33,840 Speaker 2: To kind of put it in layman's terms for the fans, 1601 01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:36,360 Speaker 2: I know they benefited. The construction guys did benefit from 1602 01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:38,240 Speaker 2: a mild winter, as I understand it, so that was 1603 01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:39,360 Speaker 2: good they did. 1604 01:16:39,800 --> 01:16:42,760 Speaker 14: The phrase is comfortably on schedule. Everything's moving. You guys 1605 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:44,519 Speaker 14: are over there. You see there's so much steel coming 1606 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:46,280 Speaker 14: out of the ground and all the precast is being laid. 1607 01:16:46,479 --> 01:16:49,400 Speaker 14: If you go in there, it looks like a stadium now. 1608 01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:51,719 Speaker 14: So it feels like we're getting close. 1609 01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:52,240 Speaker 2: To see the lower bowl. 1610 01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 14: Almost everything's moving in the right direction. It's definitely going 1611 01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:57,680 Speaker 14: to be ready to go, and everything you see it's 1612 01:16:57,800 --> 01:16:59,840 Speaker 14: it's built for Buffalo. We're never going to lose the 1613 01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:03,120 Speaker 14: character of what makes this team important, and that's being 1614 01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:05,240 Speaker 14: in Buffalo. That's an important part of the whole process. 1615 01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:07,240 Speaker 14: So it's been spending a lot of time with our 1616 01:17:07,280 --> 01:17:09,320 Speaker 14: construction folks and our design folks to make sure that 1617 01:17:09,360 --> 01:17:10,719 Speaker 14: everything is trending in the right direction. 1618 01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:11,080 Speaker 9: It is. 1619 01:17:11,120 --> 01:17:11,719 Speaker 2: It looks great. 1620 01:17:12,080 --> 01:17:14,479 Speaker 14: The hardest thing about celebrating the old stadium is all 1621 01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:17,320 Speaker 14: the Steve Tasker highlights, Like there's just too many of them. 1622 01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:19,320 Speaker 14: So we're trying to find room for all the other guys, 1623 01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:21,120 Speaker 14: but there's just too many Tasker highlights. 1624 01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:23,680 Speaker 3: Extremely important, however, though you still make sure you fit 1625 01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:26,680 Speaker 3: those in all twenty seconds of it. We'll find room 1626 01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:29,960 Speaker 3: for those, right yeah, sure, give us an idea. Now 1627 01:17:30,080 --> 01:17:32,920 Speaker 3: this like today training camp starts. You guys are on 1628 01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:37,439 Speaker 3: this quest then you've been on. This is your first 1629 01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 3: one back getting your teeth into it. What are some 1630 01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:43,559 Speaker 3: of your job one things once this thing kicks off 1631 01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 3: in September? 1632 01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:46,559 Speaker 14: Well, I think, like first here, a lot of it's 1633 01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:48,040 Speaker 14: been more Hey, how do you kind of go into 1634 01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:51,679 Speaker 14: discovery mode? What we obviously doing a lot of great things, 1635 01:17:52,080 --> 01:17:54,519 Speaker 14: The way the Bills have grown since I left, how 1636 01:17:54,560 --> 01:17:57,360 Speaker 14: great the team is, and how it's kind of transcended 1637 01:17:57,479 --> 01:18:00,360 Speaker 14: the market. There's a million great things going on. Having 1638 01:18:00,840 --> 01:18:02,599 Speaker 14: you know, left and worked in the NBA for ten 1639 01:18:02,680 --> 01:18:04,360 Speaker 14: years where we do things a little bit differently and 1640 01:18:04,800 --> 01:18:07,400 Speaker 14: running an arena than going to the giants and working 1641 01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:09,280 Speaker 14: for that big brand. What can we take from there 1642 01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:12,160 Speaker 14: to potentially later on to the success that this team 1643 01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:13,800 Speaker 14: has already had. So a lot of it is more 1644 01:18:14,320 --> 01:18:17,320 Speaker 14: observation mode. First day at camp, right, Look, I didn't 1645 01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:17,760 Speaker 14: set it up. 1646 01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:18,880 Speaker 3: I just got here. 1647 01:18:19,880 --> 01:18:22,040 Speaker 14: I love what I see right now, So what's the 1648 01:18:22,080 --> 01:18:24,240 Speaker 14: next step here? But that's basically been the process for 1649 01:18:24,320 --> 01:18:26,040 Speaker 14: everything that we're doing. Let's look at what we're doing 1650 01:18:26,080 --> 01:18:27,280 Speaker 14: and let's find ways to improve it. 1651 01:18:27,720 --> 01:18:31,479 Speaker 2: And Pete, how are you dividing your time? Because you 1652 01:18:31,600 --> 01:18:34,160 Speaker 2: share almost an identical role on the Saber side of 1653 01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:36,960 Speaker 2: the house too, so I'm sure that was an adjustment 1654 01:18:37,040 --> 01:18:38,760 Speaker 2: for you also because I don't know if you've had 1655 01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:42,320 Speaker 2: two titles simultaneously of this magnitude. So how have you 1656 01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:45,759 Speaker 2: kind of navigated that. I'm sure it's still being navigated, 1657 01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:47,960 Speaker 2: but how are you kind of working your way through 1658 01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:50,160 Speaker 2: that to divide your time as equally as possible? 1659 01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:53,479 Speaker 14: My wife, Patty would probably say not well, because I'm 1660 01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:54,880 Speaker 14: not home as much as I would like to be. 1661 01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:56,880 Speaker 3: But you know what, it's been great. I've been almost 1662 01:18:56,920 --> 01:18:57,920 Speaker 3: splitting it equally. 1663 01:18:58,160 --> 01:19:00,479 Speaker 14: I've been doing, you know, a couple of days with 1664 01:19:00,600 --> 01:19:02,519 Speaker 14: the Bills, a couple of days with the Sabers, using 1665 01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:04,680 Speaker 14: Friday as more of a swing day, and then if 1666 01:19:04,720 --> 01:19:06,479 Speaker 14: it takes nights and weekends for a while to get 1667 01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:07,559 Speaker 14: it all figured out, we will. 1668 01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:09,680 Speaker 3: So it's yeah, there's a lot, but. 1669 01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:13,000 Speaker 14: I don't think you can be more excited and energized 1670 01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:14,639 Speaker 14: for a job to come back home and do something 1671 01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:17,519 Speaker 14: like this, and you've got these aspirational projects going on 1672 01:19:17,720 --> 01:19:19,720 Speaker 14: with the stadium, and then there's all the exciting things 1673 01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:21,559 Speaker 14: that Terry and the family want to do around the arena. 1674 01:19:22,120 --> 01:19:24,200 Speaker 14: Just to be a part of something like that, there's 1675 01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:25,840 Speaker 14: no lack of energy when you get up in the 1676 01:19:25,880 --> 01:19:28,839 Speaker 14: morning to attack it. And fortunately, you know great teammates. 1677 01:19:28,880 --> 01:19:31,439 Speaker 14: You can't do this on your Own's not possible. So 1678 01:19:31,520 --> 01:19:33,479 Speaker 14: there's some really talented people on the ground at both places, 1679 01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:35,320 Speaker 14: and we're trying to figure out, you know, how was 1680 01:19:35,320 --> 01:19:38,080 Speaker 14: everyone not just mine? How is everybody's time but best 1681 01:19:38,120 --> 01:19:40,559 Speaker 14: spent to put these organizations in the best position as 1682 01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:41,120 Speaker 14: ponsible and then. 1683 01:19:41,120 --> 01:19:44,600 Speaker 2: Bridging connections because every organization has this. You have a 1684 01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:46,960 Speaker 2: business side of the house and you have a football 1685 01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:50,160 Speaker 2: or hockey side of the house. But once the season starts, 1686 01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:53,519 Speaker 2: football doesn't have as much time to give to maybe 1687 01:19:53,640 --> 01:19:57,519 Speaker 2: lend itself to formulating and strengthening those bonds. So how 1688 01:19:57,560 --> 01:20:01,120 Speaker 2: do you work around that schedule once the season gets 1689 01:20:01,200 --> 01:20:03,320 Speaker 2: going so you don't lose any ground I guess, so 1690 01:20:03,439 --> 01:20:06,439 Speaker 2: to speak, in kind of strengthening that bond and building 1691 01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:09,200 Speaker 2: that bridge, you know, so it's sustainable going forward. Yeah, 1692 01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:09,680 Speaker 2: well you hit on it. 1693 01:20:09,720 --> 01:20:12,320 Speaker 14: I don't thin there's any more important aspect of this 1694 01:20:12,400 --> 01:20:15,680 Speaker 14: in organizational alignment. And that's not just football. That's and 1695 01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:18,439 Speaker 14: that's not just business. That's together, right, and it's all 1696 01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:21,120 Speaker 14: about relationships. You know, I'm fortunate, you know, I knew 1697 01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:24,360 Speaker 14: Brandon a little bit before I came here through Joe Shane, 1698 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,639 Speaker 14: and you know, Shawan's been amazing since I've gotten here, 1699 01:20:27,760 --> 01:20:30,040 Speaker 14: like out of his way to come include me in 1700 01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:31,360 Speaker 14: things and get me involved in things. 1701 01:20:31,400 --> 01:20:32,160 Speaker 3: So it's all about that. 1702 01:20:32,240 --> 01:20:34,840 Speaker 14: And I think, you know, I always understand, Look, football's first, 1703 01:20:35,520 --> 01:20:37,160 Speaker 14: but we're also running a business. So how do we 1704 01:20:37,240 --> 01:20:39,560 Speaker 14: work together to make sure that what we're doing is 1705 01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:42,040 Speaker 14: in the best interest of everybody? And I think the 1706 01:20:42,240 --> 01:20:46,360 Speaker 14: best operations have that credible alignment across the organizations where 1707 01:20:46,360 --> 01:20:49,480 Speaker 14: you've been building this performance culture, you know, it's a meritocracy. 1708 01:20:49,520 --> 01:20:52,360 Speaker 14: Everybody does well, everybody succeeds, everybody benefit's from it, and 1709 01:20:52,439 --> 01:20:54,120 Speaker 14: it's on both sides of the organization. But if you're 1710 01:20:54,120 --> 01:20:56,519 Speaker 14: constantly communicating to me, that's the key. 1711 01:20:57,040 --> 01:20:59,360 Speaker 3: It's got to be fun to come back because you 1712 01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:01,960 Speaker 3: know this why you said this brand has exploded over 1713 01:21:01,960 --> 01:21:04,599 Speaker 3: the last handful of years. It's Internet, we get calls 1714 01:21:04,640 --> 01:21:08,360 Speaker 3: from literally thirty seven or thirty eight states, you know 1715 01:21:08,840 --> 01:21:12,160 Speaker 3: on our phone call phone system, and we get emails 1716 01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:16,240 Speaker 3: from every state, other countries to be part of these 1717 01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:19,040 Speaker 3: these two franchises that are so energy, and it give 1718 01:21:19,080 --> 01:21:22,639 Speaker 3: us an idea that I know, the Bills, the new stadium, 1719 01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:25,360 Speaker 3: the building we're in at one Bill's Drive, the fieldhouse, 1720 01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,479 Speaker 3: and the and the business. It's like an ant hild 1721 01:21:27,479 --> 01:21:30,599 Speaker 3: has been kicked. Man, everybody is busy. It's really high energy. 1722 01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:33,479 Speaker 3: And you got to I was just thinking when the 1723 01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:37,439 Speaker 3: football season starts and the hockey season overlaps, you're not 1724 01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:38,040 Speaker 3: going to sleep. 1725 01:21:38,439 --> 01:21:40,400 Speaker 14: Yeah, well you know what I mean. It just it 1726 01:21:40,880 --> 01:21:43,880 Speaker 14: means more. You know you were here, you know, Steve 1727 01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:47,519 Speaker 14: like playing in this market, working in this market. It 1728 01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:50,240 Speaker 14: just it's something different. So I've been other places. I've 1729 01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:52,599 Speaker 14: had a chance to experience other organizations and they're all great, 1730 01:21:52,640 --> 01:21:55,879 Speaker 14: but there's something special about Buffalo and there's something specially about. 1731 01:21:55,640 --> 01:21:58,520 Speaker 3: Doing it where you're from. It's it's hard to articulate. 1732 01:21:59,320 --> 01:22:02,920 Speaker 14: You know, in winning means more, you know when when 1733 01:22:02,960 --> 01:22:04,880 Speaker 14: it's your hometown and you know that's what it is 1734 01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:07,320 Speaker 14: for me, and especially with both teams and the Bills 1735 01:22:07,360 --> 01:22:09,680 Speaker 14: are obviously in a great place. Sabers, I think we're 1736 01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:11,920 Speaker 14: trending in the right direction and bringing Lindy back. There's 1737 01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:13,880 Speaker 14: a lot of excitement around the team that didn't exist before, 1738 01:22:13,920 --> 01:22:16,240 Speaker 14: and I can you can only imagine if both these 1739 01:22:16,320 --> 01:22:19,400 Speaker 14: teams are going performing at a high level, what this 1740 01:22:19,640 --> 01:22:22,960 Speaker 14: city the roof's going to come off. 1741 01:22:23,479 --> 01:22:25,080 Speaker 3: I don't know what it's like in other cities or 1742 01:22:25,080 --> 01:22:27,680 Speaker 3: other franchises, but I know this in Buffalo with the 1743 01:22:27,720 --> 01:22:32,799 Speaker 3: Sabers and the Bills, a large probably a larger percentage 1744 01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:36,400 Speaker 3: of the staff members or people grew up here Like. 1745 01:22:36,520 --> 01:22:39,320 Speaker 14: Yeah, well, I've been in big I've been like small markets, 1746 01:22:39,400 --> 01:22:42,760 Speaker 14: medium markets, large markets. This is, without a doubt, the 1747 01:22:42,880 --> 01:22:46,200 Speaker 14: most provincial sports town. Yes, in the York or without 1748 01:22:46,200 --> 01:22:48,160 Speaker 14: a doubt. So I mean, it's just again, that's what 1749 01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:50,640 Speaker 14: it goes back to, like people are so passionate, you 1750 01:22:50,800 --> 01:22:54,320 Speaker 14: almost fan avidity is off the scale. So you know, 1751 01:22:54,479 --> 01:22:56,000 Speaker 14: how do you take advantage of that? And that's kind 1752 01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:57,280 Speaker 14: of the point with the new stadium. You want to 1753 01:22:57,280 --> 01:22:59,120 Speaker 14: make sure you build it in a way that you 1754 01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:01,479 Speaker 14: can capitalize on. I came back for our game with 1755 01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:03,519 Speaker 14: the Giants this past year, and I walked in that 1756 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:06,080 Speaker 14: stand like, I can't believe that it's still like this. 1757 01:23:06,240 --> 01:23:09,720 Speaker 14: This atmosphere was incredible, and now transition that over to 1758 01:23:09,840 --> 01:23:12,519 Speaker 14: a new stadium. How do you potentially level that up? 1759 01:23:12,560 --> 01:23:13,160 Speaker 2: But you can't. 1760 01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:16,599 Speaker 14: You can't recreate what's going on here in any other market. 1761 01:23:17,080 --> 01:23:20,880 Speaker 2: Southern Ontario, I remember back then with the original regionalization 1762 01:23:20,960 --> 01:23:23,360 Speaker 2: plan was a part of it. Does where does the 1763 01:23:23,439 --> 01:23:27,080 Speaker 2: Southern Ontario market kind of stand going forward with this 1764 01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 2: franchise because I know they represent a fair portion of 1765 01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:32,880 Speaker 2: the season ticket base, So how do you what's the 1766 01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:34,519 Speaker 2: outlook for that region? 1767 01:23:34,560 --> 01:23:34,800 Speaker 6: Person? 1768 01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:37,400 Speaker 14: Yeah, Look, if I if I had my office whiteboard 1769 01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:39,720 Speaker 14: behind me, you'd see a laundry list of things, and 1770 01:23:39,800 --> 01:23:42,799 Speaker 14: you'd see Toronto somewhere near the very top. It's important, 1771 01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:45,479 Speaker 14: not unlike Rochester. You know, we've got to keep looking 1772 01:23:45,479 --> 01:23:47,400 Speaker 14: at these other markets and determining how they can help 1773 01:23:47,479 --> 01:23:49,960 Speaker 14: us grow. You know, when you put Buffalo and Toronto together, 1774 01:23:49,960 --> 01:23:51,560 Speaker 14: you've got one of the bigger markets, you know, in 1775 01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:53,600 Speaker 14: North America. So you've got to find a way to 1776 01:23:53,680 --> 01:23:57,160 Speaker 14: leverage that. We're early stages of planning. There's been some 1777 01:23:57,280 --> 01:23:59,200 Speaker 14: great work done up there before, and you know, as 1778 01:23:59,240 --> 01:24:01,800 Speaker 14: you mentioned, there's already foundation, but the goal now is 1779 01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:02,400 Speaker 14: to build on that. 1780 01:24:02,960 --> 01:24:06,880 Speaker 3: Pete, thanks for pumping in the energy to the both franchises. 1781 01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:08,760 Speaker 3: It's great to see you. Hopefully you can feel it 1782 01:24:09,360 --> 01:24:12,240 Speaker 3: be more excited, right, Yeah, and you're right, And I 1783 01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:14,760 Speaker 3: am really excited about the new spot over there, that 1784 01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:17,840 Speaker 3: that in twenty twenty seven they'll be over there twenty 1785 01:24:17,880 --> 01:24:20,280 Speaker 3: twenty six. Actually they'll be over there right, twenty twenty 1786 01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:24,040 Speaker 3: six season, sixth season, and it's gonna be special. I 1787 01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:26,160 Speaker 3: think it's gonna be It will be different. Here's why 1788 01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:29,120 Speaker 3: everybody always asks me, like I'm some I've been there once. Right, 1789 01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:32,040 Speaker 3: it is going to be different than this old stadium. 1790 01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:34,599 Speaker 3: But I think they're gonna love even more. There's gonna 1791 01:24:34,600 --> 01:24:36,760 Speaker 3: be more reasons to love the new place. There gonna 1792 01:24:36,760 --> 01:24:39,280 Speaker 3: be more things to do. It's gonna be it's gonna 1793 01:24:39,280 --> 01:24:41,080 Speaker 3: be our own. I mean that's it's gonna be different. 1794 01:24:41,120 --> 01:24:42,519 Speaker 3: It's gonna be an adjustment period of man. 1795 01:24:42,520 --> 01:24:42,760 Speaker 6: Oh man. 1796 01:24:42,800 --> 01:24:45,000 Speaker 3: I think people are actually think Bill go crazy. 1797 01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:47,599 Speaker 14: Bills fans deserve a facility like they're gonna be crazy 1798 01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:49,200 Speaker 14: because that's fun to be a part of. It's amazing 1799 01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:52,800 Speaker 14: what ownership is committed to in this marketplace, and yeah, 1800 01:24:52,800 --> 01:24:54,599 Speaker 14: I think they're gonna be blown away when that thing's opening. 1801 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:56,479 Speaker 14: And I obviously we need to get you over there 1802 01:24:56,520 --> 01:24:58,479 Speaker 14: again if you've only been there once, so we'll get 1803 01:24:58,520 --> 01:24:59,200 Speaker 14: you guys back in there. 1804 01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:03,400 Speaker 2: Sounds good, great, All right, that's Bill's Coopeteqwlly joining us here. 1805 01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:05,320 Speaker 2: We'll take a break, be back with more including your 1806 01:25:05,360 --> 01:25:07,559 Speaker 2: phone calls on One Bill's Live, presented by a lot 1807 01:25:07,600 --> 01:25:23,479 Speaker 2: of Health It's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

A good conversation there 1809 01:25:26,080 --> 01:25:29,519 Speaker 2: with Bill COO Peteqwelly on the outlook on the business 1810 01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:32,400 Speaker 2: side of the house there pig stadium deal. Obviously that 1811 01:25:32,479 --> 01:25:34,880 Speaker 2: takes center stage, but he's got to have his hands 1812 01:25:34,920 --> 01:25:37,679 Speaker 2: in other aspects as well, so they stay on task 1813 01:25:37,800 --> 01:25:40,560 Speaker 2: with those things. It's not like all attention all the 1814 01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:42,599 Speaker 2: time is on the stadium and everything else falls by 1815 01:25:42,600 --> 01:25:44,480 Speaker 2: the wayside. You're juggling a lot of balls. 1816 01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:47,200 Speaker 3: Day to day with two pro sports franchises in Buffalo. 1817 01:25:47,400 --> 01:25:50,120 Speaker 3: Were particularly when they're high profile, like the like they 1818 01:25:50,160 --> 01:25:52,640 Speaker 3: are in the market that we're in in Buffalo and 1819 01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:55,240 Speaker 3: knowing too, and we were talking off the air about 1820 01:25:55,280 --> 01:25:59,519 Speaker 3: how different the population of the region is. I mean, 1821 01:25:59,560 --> 01:26:01,320 Speaker 3: he said, you know, when we're at the Giants and 1822 01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:03,519 Speaker 3: stuff in in New York, there's you know, obviously a 1823 01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:05,680 Speaker 3: big brand, but there are twenty pro sports teams in 1824 01:26:05,720 --> 01:26:09,280 Speaker 3: the market, and there's some people who aren't sports people 1825 01:26:09,320 --> 01:26:11,840 Speaker 3: who don't know anything about the Giants. So it's a big, 1826 01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:17,360 Speaker 3: a big spectrum of interest from zero to one thousand percent. 1827 01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:22,599 Speaker 3: Here in Buffalo, everybody, everybody's one hundred percent. That's all 1828 01:26:22,640 --> 01:26:25,960 Speaker 3: bills all the time. And if you're here in Buffalo, 1829 01:26:26,200 --> 01:26:29,000 Speaker 3: we say it all the time. You're here because probably 1830 01:26:30,080 --> 01:26:33,679 Speaker 3: you're not retired here, you know, if you are retired, 1831 01:26:33,720 --> 01:26:35,280 Speaker 3: because you grew up and stayed here and you're going 1832 01:26:35,320 --> 01:26:37,599 Speaker 3: to live here for your entire life. You don't get 1833 01:26:37,760 --> 01:26:41,400 Speaker 3: outside immigration coming into the end of the city. So 1834 01:26:41,439 --> 01:26:43,560 Speaker 3: anybody's here, you grew up here, You're part of it. 1835 01:26:43,720 --> 01:26:46,559 Speaker 3: Your heritage. Bills are part of your heritage, saves are 1836 01:26:46,600 --> 01:26:49,160 Speaker 3: part of your heritage. It's all goes part and parcel, 1837 01:26:49,200 --> 01:26:52,200 Speaker 3: and it's a different animal when you handle these two franchise. 1838 01:26:52,280 --> 01:26:54,600 Speaker 3: And Pete's doing a really, really good job as he 1839 01:26:55,080 --> 01:26:56,840 Speaker 3: just really beginning his tenure back. 1840 01:26:56,920 --> 01:26:59,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, we do have to extend to thank you to 1841 01:26:59,880 --> 01:27:02,240 Speaker 2: a good friends at Wegmans for providing us with lunch 1842 01:27:02,280 --> 01:27:06,680 Speaker 2: here at Saint John Fisher University.

Like 1868 01:28:11,439 --> 01:28:12,920 Speaker 8: it's an outstated stadium, you know. 1869 01:28:14,080 --> 01:28:19,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I will say, I will say, Simon, 1870 01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:22,439 Speaker 2: it's a thirty year old building. It opened in ninety six. 1871 01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:24,680 Speaker 2: What do we got twenty twenty four, So it's not 1872 01:28:24,760 --> 01:28:30,240 Speaker 2: even thirty years old. The Bill Stadium's over fifty, so, 1873 01:28:31,439 --> 01:28:35,720 Speaker 2: I mean that's two decades. And not only that, the 1874 01:28:37,200 --> 01:28:44,200 Speaker 2: Erie County engineering people, along with the state, have made 1875 01:28:44,439 --> 01:28:48,160 Speaker 2: mandates for the upkeep of the current stadium because it 1876 01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:52,439 Speaker 2: is already outlived its usefulness by about a decade there. 1877 01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:55,040 Speaker 2: I mean, fans don't see it because they're only there 1878 01:28:55,080 --> 01:28:57,519 Speaker 2: during the regular season, but Steve and I see it 1879 01:28:57,640 --> 01:29:01,200 Speaker 2: every day. There is construction work on the old stadium's 1880 01:29:01,280 --> 01:29:05,360 Speaker 2: upper deck all the time, every summer without fail. Since 1881 01:29:05,439 --> 01:29:08,360 Speaker 2: probably about twenty twelve, they have done repairs on that. 1882 01:29:08,400 --> 01:29:11,599 Speaker 3: Upper The deadline for the upper deck is twenty twenty seven. 1883 01:29:11,640 --> 01:29:12,559 Speaker 3: They won't let anybody up. 1884 01:29:12,640 --> 01:29:14,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, like it's not even safe. 1885 01:29:14,080 --> 01:29:15,960 Speaker 3: They're not even gonna let you. You know, you can't 1886 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:17,880 Speaker 3: fix it, so they were even gonna have to tear 1887 01:29:17,960 --> 01:29:21,320 Speaker 3: those off and replace them, which is part which was 1888 01:29:21,439 --> 01:29:23,639 Speaker 3: part of the process of getting to the new stadium. 1889 01:29:23,640 --> 01:29:25,240 Speaker 3: They're like, well, what about the old companies, So we 1890 01:29:25,280 --> 01:29:27,960 Speaker 3: want to retro fit this, retro build it, which which 1891 01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:30,160 Speaker 3: meant they were gonna have to take off both sides 1892 01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:33,960 Speaker 3: of the upper decks and rebuild it in a different 1893 01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:36,720 Speaker 3: configuration or why you know, while it was in use. 1894 01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 3: I guess too, And that was just yeah, it's just 1895 01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:40,639 Speaker 3: not gonna happen. 1896 01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:44,439 Speaker 2: So and and look, I will take the Key Bank 1897 01:29:44,479 --> 01:29:48,759 Speaker 2: Center is still a very functional and very successful arena. 1898 01:29:50,439 --> 01:29:55,360 Speaker 2: I don't think there's a reason to feel urgency to 1899 01:29:55,439 --> 01:29:59,599 Speaker 2: get a new building there just yet. Let's let's take 1900 01:29:59,640 --> 01:30:02,280 Speaker 2: this one step at a time. It took us a 1901 01:30:02,360 --> 01:30:05,599 Speaker 2: long time to get here because they've been talking about 1902 01:30:05,640 --> 01:30:08,439 Speaker 2: building a new stadium in Buffalo for the football team. 1903 01:30:08,840 --> 01:30:10,040 Speaker 2: They're about twenty years. 1904 01:30:09,920 --> 01:30:13,479 Speaker 3: And they are working on the arena. They're doing some 1905 01:30:14,439 --> 01:30:18,000 Speaker 3: scoreboard work, they're doing some some roof work right now. 1906 01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:21,640 Speaker 3: So that all these big buildings like this, you know 1907 01:30:21,720 --> 01:30:22,880 Speaker 3: it as well as I do. There's a lot of 1908 01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:24,599 Speaker 3: people in it all the time. It gets worn out 1909 01:30:24,640 --> 01:30:27,439 Speaker 3: real quick, gets used real good. They got to refurbish 1910 01:30:27,479 --> 01:30:30,360 Speaker 3: it every so often.

I'm not sure 1954 01:33:04,520 --> 01:33:07,600 Speaker 21: if it answers your question directly in regard to you 1955 01:33:07,680 --> 01:33:10,519 Speaker 21: know who has the most to prove, but I guess 1956 01:33:10,560 --> 01:33:12,720 Speaker 21: I was a little curious to get your thoughts on 1957 01:33:13,840 --> 01:33:17,600 Speaker 21: Dorian Williams specifically and kind of his progression and development 1958 01:33:18,160 --> 01:33:21,960 Speaker 21: in the defense coming into this year. I remember when 1959 01:33:22,280 --> 01:33:25,680 Speaker 21: Bernard kind of had that like just tremendous growth and 1960 01:33:25,720 --> 01:33:28,240 Speaker 21: ascension into the player that he is now last year, 1961 01:33:28,320 --> 01:33:30,479 Speaker 21: and kind of hoping that we see the same from 1962 01:33:30,600 --> 01:33:34,760 Speaker 21: Dorian this year. It got plays like he's going a 1963 01:33:34,880 --> 01:33:36,800 Speaker 21: one thousand miles per hour, it seems like all the time. 1964 01:33:38,520 --> 01:33:40,560 Speaker 21: So kind of hoping that maybe you could get some 1965 01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:42,880 Speaker 21: give us some some of your thoughts on what we 1966 01:33:42,960 --> 01:33:46,120 Speaker 21: can expect from from from Dorian and and maybe even 1967 01:33:46,160 --> 01:33:49,719 Speaker 21: like Baal inspector as like a next step in their development. 1968 01:33:50,080 --> 01:33:56,479 Speaker 3: Thank you, Yeah, Joe, Yeah, Dorian is his only problem, 1969 01:33:56,520 --> 01:33:58,040 Speaker 3: I think from getting on the fields. In fact, he's 1970 01:33:58,040 --> 01:34:00,320 Speaker 3: got Matt Malono and Bernard in front of it. I mean, 1971 01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:03,120 Speaker 3: and they only played two linebackers here most of the time. 1972 01:34:03,800 --> 01:34:06,439 Speaker 3: I don't like to say question he'd be right now, 1973 01:34:06,840 --> 01:34:08,479 Speaker 3: he's my third guy in right, I. 1974 01:34:08,520 --> 01:34:10,200 Speaker 2: Mean, he'd be first off the bench. Yeah, I only 1975 01:34:10,240 --> 01:34:11,120 Speaker 2: play two linebackers. 1976 01:34:11,160 --> 01:34:13,640 Speaker 3: They only play two linebackers, So you got Milano and 1977 01:34:13,840 --> 01:34:16,439 Speaker 3: most of the time Bernard Toell Bernard on the field, 1978 01:34:16,520 --> 01:34:20,599 Speaker 3: and it's hard to break that lineup. And I think 1979 01:34:20,680 --> 01:34:23,280 Speaker 3: that's the biggest thing. Now you saw it and we're 1980 01:34:23,320 --> 01:34:26,560 Speaker 3: seeing some highlights now from the Pittsburgh game. Man, the 1981 01:34:26,640 --> 01:34:29,320 Speaker 3: guy was all over the play. He really flashed athletically 1982 01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:32,120 Speaker 3: and it was really good to see. So I'm I'm 1983 01:34:32,240 --> 01:34:34,400 Speaker 3: kind of with you. I think this is a great 1984 01:34:34,439 --> 01:34:38,400 Speaker 3: opportunity for him. There's no there's no way he's not 1985 01:34:38,560 --> 01:34:40,640 Speaker 3: in the mix at linebacker in some way shape or 1986 01:34:40,720 --> 01:34:43,719 Speaker 3: for him either first guy off the bench or maybe competing. 1987 01:34:44,120 --> 01:34:46,120 Speaker 3: And then if you know, and who knows, if Milonald 1988 01:34:46,160 --> 01:34:48,320 Speaker 3: has a setback, maybe he can slide over to that 1989 01:34:48,400 --> 01:34:51,880 Speaker 3: spot and be there for Milonnal because he's every bit 1990 01:34:51,960 --> 01:34:56,280 Speaker 3: the athlete Matt is. So I'm yeah, we're really brown. 1991 01:34:56,280 --> 01:34:57,920 Speaker 3: If you've listened to the show on a regular basis, 1992 01:34:57,960 --> 01:34:59,719 Speaker 3: you know Brown and I are really high on Dorian. 1993 01:35:00,280 --> 01:35:02,519 Speaker 3: The question is just a crowded room. Yeah. 1994 01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:05,679 Speaker 2: I think he made tremendous strides from the first third 1995 01:35:05,760 --> 01:35:07,679 Speaker 2: of the season to the final third of the season. 1996 01:35:08,240 --> 01:35:11,200 Speaker 2: You could tell he wasn't trusting what he was seeing 1997 01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:13,519 Speaker 2: in the first third of the season, whether it was 1998 01:35:13,600 --> 01:35:17,600 Speaker 2: reads out of the backfield or how the offense was 1999 01:35:17,680 --> 01:35:21,320 Speaker 2: reacting to their coverage call, and he got lost sometimes 2000 01:35:21,360 --> 01:35:23,080 Speaker 2: and he found himself on the bench because of it 2001 01:35:23,439 --> 01:35:25,920 Speaker 2: when he had to fill in due to injury. That 2002 01:35:26,080 --> 01:35:28,120 Speaker 2: all changed when they got to the end of the 2003 01:35:28,160 --> 01:35:31,360 Speaker 2: season and the postseason. He was seeing it and getting 2004 01:35:31,439 --> 01:35:34,720 Speaker 2: there and making the play. And so I think you 2005 01:35:34,760 --> 01:35:38,560 Speaker 2: should be very encouraged about Dorian Williams learning curve and 2006 01:35:38,600 --> 01:35:41,200 Speaker 2: assent here. I do believe he's going to be the 2007 01:35:41,240 --> 01:35:43,200 Speaker 2: first linebacker off the bench in the event of an 2008 01:35:43,240 --> 01:35:46,120 Speaker 2: injury and then taking it a step further. Bailon Specter 2009 01:35:47,400 --> 01:35:50,040 Speaker 2: is a player that I think doesn't get enough credit. 2010 01:35:50,800 --> 01:35:52,920 Speaker 2: The guy knows the defense like the back of his hand. 2011 01:35:53,400 --> 01:35:57,519 Speaker 2: He's great as a run stuffing gap filler in the 2012 01:35:57,640 --> 01:36:01,560 Speaker 2: run front more that I think he gets credit for. 2013 01:36:02,280 --> 01:36:06,160 Speaker 2: So for your top four linebackers to be Milano, Bernard, 2014 01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:09,479 Speaker 2: Spector and Williams, you do a lot worse than that quartet. 2015 01:36:09,680 --> 01:36:12,360 Speaker 3: Yes, when Spector came out, he was he was athletic, 2016 01:36:12,479 --> 01:36:14,840 Speaker 3: an athlete. That's he was one of those guys. He 2017 01:36:14,920 --> 01:36:17,519 Speaker 3: was an athlete, you know, a guy who was a 2018 01:36:17,600 --> 01:36:20,120 Speaker 3: superior athlete at the college level from Clem City, and 2019 01:36:20,280 --> 01:36:22,639 Speaker 3: he was fast, he could get around the field and stuff. 2020 01:36:22,640 --> 01:36:24,880 Speaker 3: So that's why he got drafted was because he was 2021 01:36:24,960 --> 01:36:27,840 Speaker 3: gifted and here in Buffalo, as you say, he first 2022 01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:30,200 Speaker 3: came into the league, and it was Tremaine and Matt Malono. 2023 01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:32,719 Speaker 3: Then it was Bernard And remember last year, Bernard couldn't 2024 01:36:32,720 --> 01:36:34,519 Speaker 3: get on the field because he was hurt during training camp, 2025 01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:36,720 Speaker 3: and we had this bits the whole preseason, this big, 2026 01:36:37,280 --> 01:36:40,320 Speaker 3: you know, mix of guys who were taking reps and 2027 01:36:40,320 --> 01:36:42,439 Speaker 3: couldn't get on. Dotson was there for a long time 2028 01:36:42,520 --> 01:36:44,760 Speaker 3: and he was up and down, and finally when the 2029 01:36:44,800 --> 01:36:47,519 Speaker 3: regular season got around, Bernard got the job and then 2030 01:36:47,560 --> 01:36:49,560 Speaker 3: wouldn't let it go and he became the player we 2031 01:36:49,600 --> 01:36:51,280 Speaker 3: saw at the end of the year and throughout the 2032 01:36:51,360 --> 01:36:55,640 Speaker 3: year last year. So Spector kind of has been in 2033 01:36:55,720 --> 01:36:59,160 Speaker 3: that same crowded room that we talked about with Dorian Williams. 2034 01:36:59,200 --> 01:37:00,800 Speaker 3: It's it's hard to practice, but. 2035 01:37:00,840 --> 01:37:03,799 Speaker 2: The deck has been cleared somewhat because Dodson's not here anymore. 2036 01:37:04,200 --> 01:37:07,639 Speaker 2: Neither is Matti Kaevich. So yeah, I mean, you've got 2037 01:37:07,720 --> 01:37:10,960 Speaker 2: a few more openings here and even the rookie at 2038 01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:14,880 Speaker 2: Ifuan yulafotio uh could have a role to fill as 2039 01:37:14,880 --> 01:37:18,120 Speaker 2: a special teams linebacker and a reserve linebacker on defense. 2040 01:37:18,479 --> 01:37:20,919 Speaker 2: Let's get back to the phones into Dennis in North Carolina. 2041 01:37:20,960 --> 01:37:23,639 Speaker 2: What's up, Dennis, Hey, Chris. 2042 01:37:23,760 --> 01:37:26,720 Speaker 8: First of all, congratulations on your new job. 2043 01:37:28,160 --> 01:37:28,640 Speaker 2: Oh, thank you. 2044 01:37:29,040 --> 01:37:34,040 Speaker 8: Then I believe or not I've watched or listen to 2045 01:37:34,120 --> 01:37:37,559 Speaker 8: the highlights, and but I listened to you really bring 2046 01:37:37,600 --> 01:37:39,519 Speaker 8: a lot of life and as satment to the game. 2047 01:37:39,720 --> 01:37:41,920 Speaker 8: So I'm really looking forward to listening to you. 2048 01:37:42,320 --> 01:37:44,880 Speaker 3: Okay, that's nice to say. 2049 01:37:46,800 --> 01:37:47,439 Speaker 22: Hey, uh. 2050 01:37:49,000 --> 01:37:54,679 Speaker 8: Stop Anie Isabella being a tart receiver or a returner. 2051 01:37:55,600 --> 01:37:58,000 Speaker 8: I mean, he's probably one of the fastest receivers on 2052 01:37:58,080 --> 01:38:03,360 Speaker 8: the team. He kind of liked the dark horse. Can 2053 01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:06,120 Speaker 8: you give me a little input all that? Thank you? 2054 01:38:06,680 --> 01:38:08,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I think you got him nailed, Dennis, And 2055 01:38:09,000 --> 01:38:10,800 Speaker 2: thanks for the call. I think you've got him nailed. 2056 01:38:11,439 --> 01:38:13,640 Speaker 2: His speed is his number one asset. He runs like 2057 01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:15,680 Speaker 2: a four to three one forty. I mean, he was 2058 01:38:15,720 --> 01:38:18,040 Speaker 2: a state champion in high school in the state of Ohio, 2059 01:38:18,120 --> 01:38:20,400 Speaker 2: where they got a few athletes that know how to run. 2060 01:38:21,640 --> 01:38:25,720 Speaker 2: That's not that's not nothing, diminutive in size, but quick 2061 01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:28,160 Speaker 2: as a hiccup, gets in and out of breaks lightning quick. 2062 01:38:28,720 --> 01:38:31,240 Speaker 2: And I think that's what allowed him to stay on 2063 01:38:31,360 --> 01:38:33,400 Speaker 2: this team's practice squad. And get a couple of call 2064 01:38:33,479 --> 01:38:36,559 Speaker 2: ups over the last year or so. Can he take 2065 01:38:36,640 --> 01:38:38,760 Speaker 2: that a step further? I think he's got to make 2066 01:38:38,760 --> 01:38:40,479 Speaker 2: plays in the preseason if he's going to do that. 2067 01:38:41,120 --> 01:38:42,600 Speaker 2: But Dennis, I tend to. 2068 01:38:42,600 --> 01:38:42,960 Speaker 3: Agree with you. 2069 01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:44,000 Speaker 2: I think he's a dark horse. 2070 01:38:44,160 --> 01:38:46,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, he got on the field late last season. I'll 2071 01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:48,040 Speaker 3: say this too. One thing I noticed when he in 2072 01:38:48,120 --> 01:38:50,720 Speaker 3: the games where he was active, they tried to get 2073 01:38:50,800 --> 01:38:52,760 Speaker 3: him the ball a couple of times. They gave him 2074 01:38:52,800 --> 01:38:54,680 Speaker 3: some targets offensively, you know, how to get him out 2075 01:38:54,680 --> 01:38:56,600 Speaker 3: and spin was just out there to catch punts and 2076 01:38:56,760 --> 01:38:58,080 Speaker 3: do that, and they got him out. So they wanted 2077 01:38:58,080 --> 01:39:00,360 Speaker 3: to see if he could do something break him loose 2078 01:39:00,400 --> 01:39:02,000 Speaker 3: on the long one, so they tried to get him 2079 01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:05,200 Speaker 3: the ball. So his athleticism is known by this coaching 2080 01:39:05,280 --> 01:39:08,640 Speaker 3: staff and when they have him available, they're going to 2081 01:39:08,680 --> 01:39:12,080 Speaker 3: try and use him. But you're right, it's a like 2082 01:39:12,200 --> 01:39:14,320 Speaker 3: we said, it's We've been talking about it all off season. 2083 01:39:14,360 --> 01:39:17,320 Speaker 3: It's a big wide receiver room with a lot of dudes. 2084 01:39:17,880 --> 01:39:20,479 Speaker 3: He is of a type physically, he's a smaller guy, 2085 01:39:20,960 --> 01:39:24,040 Speaker 3: you know, one hundred and ninety pounds. But you're right, 2086 01:39:24,280 --> 01:39:27,280 Speaker 3: he is very quick laterally very quick in tight space, 2087 01:39:27,439 --> 01:39:29,960 Speaker 3: is a very good down inside, running a little hitches 2088 01:39:30,000 --> 01:39:33,240 Speaker 3: and pivot routes, really good at that stuff. Made a 2089 01:39:33,720 --> 01:39:36,400 Speaker 3: nice catch today I saw as well. So he's catching 2090 01:39:36,439 --> 01:39:39,479 Speaker 3: the ball well. So, like I said, it's a numbers 2091 01:39:39,520 --> 01:39:42,680 Speaker 3: game when you get to guys like Andy Isabella, and 2092 01:39:42,960 --> 01:39:46,000 Speaker 3: for him, it's gonna have to be can he return kicks? 2093 01:39:46,400 --> 01:39:48,960 Speaker 3: Can he cover kicks? Can he play wide receiver? And 2094 01:39:49,040 --> 01:39:52,120 Speaker 3: I mean every single spot on the wide receiver menu. 2095 01:39:52,439 --> 01:39:54,920 Speaker 3: He's got to play all of that, yeah, and be 2096 01:39:55,040 --> 01:39:56,680 Speaker 3: ready to if in a pinch. Can it be one 2097 01:39:56,720 --> 01:39:58,560 Speaker 3: of those guys where they can run in you know, 2098 01:39:59,080 --> 01:40:01,519 Speaker 3: outside sweep and that kind of stuff. He's got to 2099 01:40:01,600 --> 01:40:04,920 Speaker 3: do a lot and be really versatile to give himself 2100 01:40:04,960 --> 01:40:05,960 Speaker 3: the best chance to make it wrong. 2101 01:40:06,040 --> 01:40:08,840 Speaker 2: I'll probably steal the punt return job in the process. Right, 2102 01:40:09,360 --> 01:40:11,920 Speaker 2: let's get back to the phones to Steve in New York. 2103 01:40:12,040 --> 01:40:12,959 Speaker 2: What's up, Steve. 2104 01:40:14,320 --> 01:40:14,479 Speaker 11: Hey? 2105 01:40:15,439 --> 01:40:17,800 Speaker 24: First of all, I look Christmas, Steve, I really love you. 2106 01:40:17,880 --> 01:40:19,559 Speaker 24: I listened to the radio until you're getting to show 2107 01:40:19,560 --> 01:40:21,760 Speaker 24: a lot, and I really love it, especially when you 2108 01:40:21,880 --> 01:40:23,040 Speaker 24: guys be map together. 2109 01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:27,360 Speaker 2: That question, No, that is not good. 2110 01:40:27,439 --> 01:40:28,840 Speaker 3: You are a regular listener aren't you. 2111 01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:33,400 Speaker 24: Yeah, my question is about Chase Claypool. He's so big 2112 01:40:33,479 --> 01:40:35,920 Speaker 24: at like six four two thirty eight. Is there any 2113 01:40:35,960 --> 01:40:37,960 Speaker 24: way they could keep him anti like a third third 2114 01:40:38,040 --> 01:40:40,240 Speaker 24: tight end and that way open up another spot for 2115 01:40:40,360 --> 01:40:41,200 Speaker 24: a wide receiver. 2116 01:40:43,360 --> 01:40:47,839 Speaker 2: Uh, it's an interesting thought, Steve, and they love position 2117 01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:50,240 Speaker 2: versatility around here. I'm not going to debate that for 2118 01:40:50,320 --> 01:40:53,160 Speaker 2: a second. I don't know if that. I think that's 2119 01:40:53,200 --> 01:40:56,639 Speaker 2: a harder transition than people might realize, just because you're 2120 01:40:56,680 --> 01:41:00,799 Speaker 2: responsible for so many other things playing the tight end position. 2121 01:41:03,520 --> 01:41:06,160 Speaker 2: If I think Claypool has an off, as Steve has 2122 01:41:06,160 --> 01:41:10,759 Speaker 2: said multiple times, Claypool's presence here is a personality test. 2123 01:41:11,560 --> 01:41:16,360 Speaker 2: Can he change the narrative on what his career has been, 2124 01:41:16,800 --> 01:41:20,679 Speaker 2: which is an unwillingness to do anything for the football team. 2125 01:41:21,360 --> 01:41:24,920 Speaker 2: So if he can change that dynamic first, then I 2126 01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:26,720 Speaker 2: think they can look at other options and if it's 2127 01:41:26,760 --> 01:41:30,439 Speaker 2: super crowded at receiver, maybe they entertain that the problem 2128 01:41:30,560 --> 01:41:35,240 Speaker 2: is You've got Dalton Kinkaid, Dawson Knox, and Quintin Morris, 2129 01:41:35,560 --> 01:41:39,160 Speaker 2: who are three pretty entrenched tight ends, and you have 2130 01:41:39,320 --> 01:41:42,320 Speaker 2: Reggie Gilliam as a full back slash tight end. You 2131 01:41:42,360 --> 01:41:46,200 Speaker 2: know it can play the h back stuff. So it's 2132 01:41:46,360 --> 01:41:47,960 Speaker 2: it's almost as crowded. 2133 01:41:47,600 --> 01:41:51,559 Speaker 3: There as I'd say, Steve. If the truth be known, 2134 01:41:51,760 --> 01:41:55,040 Speaker 3: if Chase Claypool can't make this club as a wide receiver, 2135 01:41:56,439 --> 01:42:01,439 Speaker 3: they don't want him. They're not gonna He's not gonna 2136 01:42:01,479 --> 01:42:04,280 Speaker 3: be able to make a transition to another position, and 2137 01:42:04,439 --> 01:42:07,240 Speaker 3: for what reason to outplay somebody you've already got that's 2138 01:42:07,240 --> 01:42:10,720 Speaker 3: playing really well. I would say no to that's they're 2139 01:42:10,760 --> 01:42:14,160 Speaker 3: not gonna even think about transitioning him to another receiver 2140 01:42:14,520 --> 01:42:18,200 Speaker 3: or another position like tight end. Yes, he's big, he's strong, 2141 01:42:18,240 --> 01:42:20,679 Speaker 3: he's not quite as heavy as a guy like Kincaid 2142 01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:25,880 Speaker 3: or even certainly not as heavy as Knocks, But that's 2143 01:42:26,000 --> 01:42:26,800 Speaker 3: just not gonna happen. 2144 01:42:28,760 --> 01:42:28,800 Speaker 17: It. 2145 01:42:30,080 --> 01:42:32,439 Speaker 3: If Chase Claypool is good enough to be on this team, 2146 01:42:32,479 --> 01:42:34,280 Speaker 3: he's good enough to be on this team, and if 2147 01:42:34,320 --> 01:42:37,040 Speaker 3: they wanted to, if they thought maybe transition him to 2148 01:42:37,080 --> 01:42:39,360 Speaker 3: be someplace, they keep him as a wide receiver and 2149 01:42:39,479 --> 01:42:41,479 Speaker 3: just use him in the way that you're talking about. 2150 01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:45,240 Speaker 3: They wouldn't even they wouldn't keep an extra extra wide receiver. 2151 01:42:45,320 --> 01:42:48,720 Speaker 3: They just keep Claypool as that spot. So yeah, I 2152 01:42:49,280 --> 01:42:54,320 Speaker 3: get the idea. And sometimes they'll keep guy like last year. 2153 01:42:54,360 --> 01:42:56,560 Speaker 3: I think early in the season they kept like I 2154 01:42:56,560 --> 01:42:59,400 Speaker 3: don't know, nine or ten defensive linemen or something that, 2155 01:42:59,720 --> 01:43:01,280 Speaker 3: you know, because they got a guy that they didn't 2156 01:43:01,280 --> 01:43:05,040 Speaker 3: want to release. You got to make yourself valuable. So 2157 01:43:05,160 --> 01:43:10,799 Speaker 3: if Claypool can't make himself valuable enough as a wide receiver, 2158 01:43:12,840 --> 01:43:15,320 Speaker 3: you can't convince me he could make himself valuable enough 2159 01:43:15,320 --> 01:43:16,400 Speaker 3: as a tight end in this team. 2160 01:43:17,840 --> 01:43:20,519 Speaker 2: Back to the phones into Tom in Rochester. Next, what's up, Tom? 2161 01:43:21,920 --> 01:43:25,240 Speaker 25: Oh, you thanks for taking the call, and congratulations Chris. 2162 01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:27,519 Speaker 3: Right, Tom. 2163 01:43:29,520 --> 01:43:35,320 Speaker 25: The whole team, in my opinion, needs to prove themselves. 2164 01:43:36,360 --> 01:43:40,320 Speaker 25: And I say this because of course Steve was there 2165 01:43:40,439 --> 01:43:44,120 Speaker 25: for the run in the nineties and they've had real 2166 01:43:44,240 --> 01:43:49,439 Speaker 25: good luck to past several years. But still they haven't 2167 01:43:49,560 --> 01:43:51,920 Speaker 25: crossed the threshold of going home at the end of 2168 01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:55,360 Speaker 25: the season with a ring. And I'd sort of hate 2169 01:43:55,400 --> 01:44:00,720 Speaker 25: to see the Bills take on the mantle of Chicago Boston, 2170 01:44:01,040 --> 01:44:04,880 Speaker 25: you know where they go with almost a century without 2171 01:44:05,120 --> 01:44:08,320 Speaker 25: winning the big Ones. So I guess I'm looking for 2172 01:44:08,439 --> 01:44:10,000 Speaker 25: the whole team to pull it off. 2173 01:44:13,640 --> 01:44:16,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's an interesting talk about You're right, and that's 2174 01:44:16,600 --> 01:44:21,320 Speaker 3: it's time, you know, Uh, there's a handful of franchises. 2175 01:44:21,400 --> 01:44:23,479 Speaker 3: I don't know, maybe is there six or ten of them? 2176 01:44:24,080 --> 01:44:27,519 Speaker 3: How many franchisees have never won it? I remember the number. Yeah, 2177 01:44:27,760 --> 01:44:38,920 Speaker 3: it's like Detroit, Buffalo, Cleveland, Jacksonville, Cleveland, Houston, of course, Carolina, Nashville, Carolina. 2178 01:44:39,479 --> 01:44:42,040 Speaker 3: So there's you know, eight or nine ten teams that 2179 01:44:42,120 --> 01:44:45,040 Speaker 3: have never won the Super Bowl. And yeah, it's high 2180 01:44:45,080 --> 01:44:46,599 Speaker 3: time that one of them did. And certainly it could 2181 01:44:46,600 --> 01:44:49,120 Speaker 3: be Buffalo. They're the ones with you know, you got 2182 01:44:49,640 --> 01:44:51,439 Speaker 3: you got it. They're coming up on one hundred years 2183 01:44:51,479 --> 01:44:54,320 Speaker 3: of this thing too, or seventy five years of this thing, 2184 01:44:54,479 --> 01:45:00,400 Speaker 3: so it's uh, yeah, I would agree with that. And 2185 01:45:00,840 --> 01:45:03,080 Speaker 3: I know this too. It's not really true, but really 2186 01:45:03,080 --> 01:45:04,960 Speaker 3: the only people responsible for this are the guys in 2187 01:45:05,000 --> 01:45:08,519 Speaker 3: the room, and the coaching staff and the executive staff 2188 01:45:08,560 --> 01:45:10,639 Speaker 3: and the football side of the building are the ones 2189 01:45:10,680 --> 01:45:13,519 Speaker 3: that are in trench. But all of us feel like 2190 01:45:13,640 --> 01:45:16,320 Speaker 3: it's us right. It's Buffalo that needs to win it. 2191 01:45:16,960 --> 01:45:21,120 Speaker 3: And I know this too. The old guys like me 2192 01:45:21,280 --> 01:45:24,920 Speaker 3: that you mentioned, the old nineties guys, the old you know, 2193 01:45:25,160 --> 01:45:27,360 Speaker 3: the old Guardian guys, the drought guys, the guys that 2194 01:45:27,439 --> 01:45:31,280 Speaker 3: played the Kyle Williams of the world, the Aaron Shovels 2195 01:45:31,320 --> 01:45:35,879 Speaker 3: of the world. Those guys would love to see Buffalo 2196 01:45:35,960 --> 01:45:41,000 Speaker 3: win it for Buffalo, not you know, I mean that 2197 01:45:41,160 --> 01:45:43,599 Speaker 3: the nineties guys, I know, Bruce and Jim and Thurman 2198 01:45:43,640 --> 01:45:45,640 Speaker 3: and Andre that we'd love to see it happen just 2199 01:45:45,720 --> 01:45:48,960 Speaker 3: for the town, for the city of Buffalo, because we 2200 01:45:49,080 --> 01:45:50,719 Speaker 3: love it so much and we feel like the fans 2201 01:45:50,800 --> 01:45:53,439 Speaker 3: deserve it. So you're right, it is about the team. 2202 01:45:53,479 --> 01:45:55,920 Speaker 3: It's about the players and the coaches. But all those 2203 01:45:55,960 --> 01:45:59,280 Speaker 3: old guys who you mentioned would love for the city 2204 01:46:00,080 --> 01:46:03,120 Speaker 3: to have that in their pocket. There's just no two 2205 01:46:03,160 --> 01:46:04,679 Speaker 3: ways about it. That's a good call. Thanks Tom. 2206 01:46:04,880 --> 01:46:06,720 Speaker 2: As far as something to prove, it's not to prove 2207 01:46:06,760 --> 01:46:08,560 Speaker 2: that they're a good team. I think they've proven that 2208 01:46:08,800 --> 01:46:10,679 Speaker 2: by virtue of making the playoffs each in the last 2209 01:46:10,760 --> 01:46:15,200 Speaker 2: five years. It's proving that you can legitimately be a 2210 01:46:15,320 --> 01:46:18,160 Speaker 2: Super Bowl contender, get to the big Game, and win it. 2211 01:46:18,640 --> 01:46:21,200 Speaker 2: So that's kind of where it sits. We want to 2212 01:46:21,240 --> 01:46:24,919 Speaker 2: transition now though, to Bill starting middle linebacker Terrell Bernard, 2213 01:46:25,240 --> 01:46:29,479 Speaker 2: who addressed the media after the first training camp practice today. 2214 01:46:29,560 --> 01:46:31,920 Speaker 2: So let's go to Terrell Bernard's comments right now. 2215 01:46:33,360 --> 01:46:38,920 Speaker 15: So Bobby, how does that help, especially Dave wise that 2216 01:46:39,360 --> 01:46:40,679 Speaker 15: you guys need any extra prooves? 2217 01:46:40,800 --> 01:46:44,280 Speaker 9: But I seem to infuse itself from Joe. 2218 01:46:44,800 --> 01:46:45,000 Speaker 18: Yeah. 2219 01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:47,840 Speaker 11: I think anytime you know, you have that extra energy, 2220 01:46:48,240 --> 01:46:50,960 Speaker 11: like you said, the juice and just his passion, I 2221 01:46:51,000 --> 01:46:53,479 Speaker 11: think it flows into us.

You know, 2401 01:54:19,400 --> 01:54:23,240 Speaker 11: we're watching film from twenty twelve, twenty thirteen, and then 2402 01:54:23,960 --> 01:54:26,360 Speaker 11: you know, just his his energy and excitement, like you said, 2403 01:54:26,400 --> 01:54:28,400 Speaker 11: you know, he hasn't been in a in a position 2404 01:54:28,520 --> 01:54:30,560 Speaker 11: room in a while, So I think that's you know, 2405 01:54:30,720 --> 01:54:33,040 Speaker 11: really tangible. You can you can feel how excited he 2406 01:54:33,200 --> 01:54:34,880 Speaker 11: is to be to be back with the guys and 2407 01:54:35,200 --> 01:54:36,160 Speaker 11: you know, doing that type of thing. 2408 01:54:36,240 --> 01:54:37,280 Speaker 18: So it's been it's been great. 2409 01:54:37,840 --> 01:54:41,200 Speaker 19: Real via the last two off seasons, coming in the season, 2410 01:54:41,760 --> 01:54:44,520 Speaker 19: competing for snaps, competing for starting positions, things like that. 2411 01:54:44,720 --> 01:54:47,360 Speaker 3: Now you're an established player on this team. 2412 01:54:47,440 --> 01:54:51,400 Speaker 19: How does that kind of change the mindset, the motivation 2413 01:54:51,560 --> 01:54:53,600 Speaker 19: during the off season, How do you kind of find 2414 01:54:53,640 --> 01:54:54,320 Speaker 19: that playing out in. 2415 01:54:54,320 --> 01:54:54,960 Speaker 2: The sef season. 2416 01:54:55,560 --> 01:54:58,879 Speaker 11: Yeah, I think for me, you know, it was an 2417 01:54:59,000 --> 01:55:01,760 Speaker 11: idea of how can I improve myself and how can 2418 01:55:01,800 --> 01:55:04,680 Speaker 11: I push myself? Like you said, you know, there's obviously 2419 01:55:04,800 --> 01:55:07,040 Speaker 11: things things have changed from you know, the last couple 2420 01:55:07,080 --> 01:55:09,240 Speaker 11: of years of where I've been to where I'm at 2421 01:55:09,320 --> 01:55:11,560 Speaker 11: right now. But I think the main thing is I 2422 01:55:12,440 --> 01:55:15,000 Speaker 11: I will never let myself get comfortable or be complacent 2423 01:55:15,240 --> 01:55:18,560 Speaker 11: or feel like anything has has changed in that aspect. 2424 01:55:18,680 --> 01:55:21,280 Speaker 11: So if anything, I feel like I've I've doubled my work, 2425 01:55:21,480 --> 01:55:25,200 Speaker 11: I've really put in the time to be where I 2426 01:55:25,280 --> 01:55:27,000 Speaker 11: need to be at coming into training camp, and then 2427 01:55:27,040 --> 01:55:29,240 Speaker 11: you know eventually, you know, going into the season. So 2428 01:55:29,360 --> 01:55:32,840 Speaker 11: I think really just just having that mind the growth 2429 01:55:32,920 --> 01:55:34,800 Speaker 11: mindset of trying to get trying to get better every 2430 01:55:34,800 --> 01:55:37,720 Speaker 11: single day. That's where I'm I'm rooted in and where 2431 01:55:37,760 --> 01:55:39,760 Speaker 11: I want to be, you know, moving forward. 2432 01:55:42,040 --> 01:55:44,880 Speaker 2: All right. That is Terrell Bernard addressing the media here 2433 01:55:44,960 --> 01:55:49,720 Speaker 2: after practice practice number one of Bill's training camp twenty twenty. 2434 01:55:50,360 --> 01:55:54,360 Speaker 3: For tell a little difference in him this year can't you. Yeah, 2435 01:55:54,520 --> 01:55:54,800 Speaker 3: I was. 2436 01:55:55,200 --> 01:55:58,320 Speaker 2: I was struck by a story that I heard about 2437 01:55:58,400 --> 01:56:02,240 Speaker 2: Week eight team last year. So it's on the sidelines 2438 01:56:03,680 --> 01:56:08,160 Speaker 2: and the Bills have just gone in to score and 2439 01:56:08,320 --> 01:56:12,880 Speaker 2: take the lead twenty one to fourteen, and coach McDermott, 2440 01:56:12,880 --> 01:56:16,760 Speaker 2: who was full time DC at the time, heads down 2441 01:56:16,800 --> 01:56:19,440 Speaker 2: the sideline to go talk to his defense because they're 2442 01:56:19,440 --> 01:56:21,120 Speaker 2: gonna be going on the field after the kickoff. 2443 01:56:21,320 --> 01:56:23,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta give him a little something, Give. 2444 01:56:22,880 --> 01:56:26,360 Speaker 2: Him a little something. So he goes down there and 2445 01:56:27,560 --> 01:56:30,320 Speaker 2: one of the defensive players looks at coach McDermott and said, 2446 01:56:30,840 --> 01:56:33,640 Speaker 2: TV's got it. He already said what needed to be said. 2447 01:56:34,040 --> 01:56:37,280 Speaker 2: So like whatever coach's message was gonna be, the players 2448 01:56:37,320 --> 01:56:40,120 Speaker 2: already got that message from their middle linebacker. And I 2449 01:56:40,200 --> 01:56:42,880 Speaker 2: think that's that's an important step for a first year 2450 01:56:42,960 --> 01:56:46,480 Speaker 2: starter to take. You you know, it's your unit, take 2451 01:56:46,520 --> 01:56:50,560 Speaker 2: control of it and make it work. And I don't 2452 01:56:50,600 --> 01:56:55,360 Speaker 2: think people fully appreciate the task that Terrell Bernard was 2453 01:56:55,400 --> 01:56:58,960 Speaker 2: faced with last season. Number one, as you pointed out earlier, 2454 01:56:59,400 --> 01:57:02,680 Speaker 2: missedst of training camp, did not play in a preseason game, 2455 01:57:03,120 --> 01:57:05,720 Speaker 2: and then it was here's the keys to the defense. 2456 01:57:06,080 --> 01:57:08,120 Speaker 2: I need you to call it and oh, by the way, 2457 01:57:08,240 --> 01:57:11,080 Speaker 2: it's your head coach calling the plays in so if 2458 01:57:11,120 --> 01:57:13,760 Speaker 2: you screw it up, the head coach is gonna know. 2459 01:57:14,520 --> 01:57:16,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, the guy that's pressure, Yeah, the guy called him 2460 01:57:16,720 --> 01:57:19,880 Speaker 3: the plays doesn't answer to anybody on the staff, right, 2461 01:57:19,960 --> 01:57:24,520 Speaker 3: So yeah, it was big and not playing any preseason 2462 01:57:26,360 --> 01:57:28,520 Speaker 3: had to weigh heavy on the coaching staff as well 2463 01:57:28,560 --> 01:57:31,880 Speaker 3: as Terrell because you just it just you didn't want 2464 01:57:31,880 --> 01:57:34,240 Speaker 3: to see him do it. You know, you just want 2465 01:57:34,240 --> 01:57:38,600 Speaker 3: to see him do it. And it was a problem 2466 01:57:38,640 --> 01:57:41,840 Speaker 3: in the preseason. It was not going well on that defense. 2467 01:57:41,920 --> 01:57:45,840 Speaker 3: Well there wasn't a definitive answer, and so they he 2468 01:57:46,000 --> 01:57:49,320 Speaker 3: got out there because nobody really said, oh, nobody gave 2469 01:57:49,400 --> 01:57:50,920 Speaker 3: them the comment say oh yeah, I like this guy 2470 01:57:50,920 --> 01:57:52,800 Speaker 3: in there. We're gonna be fine with him there. That 2471 01:57:53,000 --> 01:57:57,080 Speaker 3: was not happening. So they needed him to be good 2472 01:57:57,160 --> 01:57:59,240 Speaker 3: and he came through big time for him. 2473 01:57:59,320 --> 01:58:01,000 Speaker 2: And then you look at the first month of the 2474 01:58:01,040 --> 01:58:03,880 Speaker 2: season when he and Milano were both healthy. They were 2475 01:58:03,920 --> 01:58:09,040 Speaker 2: taking the ball away, tackles for loss, sacks, interceptions, forced fumbles. 2476 01:58:09,240 --> 01:58:11,440 Speaker 2: I mean, those two guys were a menace. If Milano 2477 01:58:11,520 --> 01:58:15,120 Speaker 2: and Bernard stayed healthy all season last year, they might 2478 01:58:15,200 --> 01:58:19,440 Speaker 2: be considered one of the top three linebacker duos in 2479 01:58:19,560 --> 01:58:21,760 Speaker 2: the league with their playmaking. If they would have won. 2480 01:58:21,640 --> 01:58:23,440 Speaker 3: A couple extra games, I do. I think they would 2481 01:58:23,440 --> 01:58:25,360 Speaker 3: have won a game or two more than they did, 2482 01:58:26,240 --> 01:58:31,200 Speaker 3: but we'll never know. Yeah, he was the He was 2483 01:58:31,280 --> 01:58:34,520 Speaker 3: a defensive MVP. Last year's pleasant surprise on the team 2484 01:58:34,600 --> 01:58:38,040 Speaker 3: last year, I mean, even ahead of Kincaid. Kinkaid you 2485 01:58:38,160 --> 01:58:39,640 Speaker 3: kind of expected to come out and do that, and 2486 01:58:39,680 --> 01:58:41,880 Speaker 3: he played extremely well. But Bernard, I think was more 2487 01:58:41,960 --> 01:58:43,280 Speaker 3: surprising in his success. 2488 01:58:43,440 --> 01:58:45,960 Speaker 2: And it was all the crooked numbers he put in 2489 01:58:46,040 --> 01:58:48,440 Speaker 2: all the different categories. I mean, I think he was 2490 01:58:48,760 --> 01:58:53,680 Speaker 2: first or second on the team in receptions, I think 2491 01:58:53,760 --> 01:59:00,480 Speaker 2: he was second or third in sacks, and I mean 2492 01:59:00,600 --> 01:59:04,440 Speaker 2: he just had crooked numbers all across the board. So 2493 01:59:04,880 --> 01:59:10,600 Speaker 2: three interceptions, he had, five pass breakups, three fumble recoveries, 2494 01:59:11,600 --> 01:59:14,840 Speaker 2: ten tackles for loss as a linebacker, ten tackles for loss, 2495 01:59:15,320 --> 01:59:19,200 Speaker 2: nine quarterback hits. Oh in one hundred and forty three tackles. 2496 01:59:19,400 --> 01:59:20,920 Speaker 3: Like he was busy. 2497 01:59:21,040 --> 01:59:23,160 Speaker 2: I mean it was him and Ed. Those were the 2498 01:59:23,800 --> 01:59:26,320 Speaker 2: two players on the defensive side of the ball whose 2499 01:59:26,440 --> 01:59:30,560 Speaker 2: games changed for the better most dramatically last season. And 2500 01:59:30,640 --> 01:59:33,640 Speaker 2: it's not even close. It's Bernard and Oliver. 2501 01:59:33,840 --> 01:59:36,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, and in a year where they needed 2502 01:59:36,960 --> 01:59:39,480 Speaker 3: him too, they did. The defense was just like what 2503 01:59:39,680 --> 01:59:41,720 Speaker 3: you and I had thought it was gonna be leading 2504 01:59:41,840 --> 01:59:45,800 Speaker 3: up to that season. Is maybe not as highly ranked, 2505 01:59:46,200 --> 01:59:50,560 Speaker 3: but man oh Man timely plays spectacic. They were more spectacular, 2506 01:59:50,720 --> 01:59:54,600 Speaker 3: more often and had bigger numbers in sacks, bigger numbers 2507 01:59:54,640 --> 01:59:56,840 Speaker 3: in turnovers than they had in the previous couple of years. 2508 01:59:57,160 --> 01:59:59,040 Speaker 3: And you could see the difference. You could really see 2509 01:59:59,040 --> 02:00:02,240 Speaker 3: the difference. And it started with Milano and Bernard, no 2510 02:00:02,440 --> 02:00:03,040 Speaker 3: question about it. 2511 02:00:03,400 --> 02:00:05,920 Speaker 2: Break time for us. When we come back, we're still 2512 02:00:05,960 --> 02:00:08,080 Speaker 2: taking your phone calls.

RITA leads it's off with the following DeMar 2526 02:00:56,680 --> 02:01:00,320 Speaker 2: Hamlin and kyr Elam because both have had differ frint 2527 02:01:00,680 --> 02:01:05,240 Speaker 2: but large setbacks and both are underrated in my opinion. Yeah, 2528 02:01:05,320 --> 02:01:08,920 Speaker 2: I mean some people do feel that Kyrie Elam is underrated. 2529 02:01:09,000 --> 02:01:13,640 Speaker 2: He is immensely gifted physically and has an outstanding work ethic. 2530 02:01:13,960 --> 02:01:16,720 Speaker 2: We heard coach McDermott say it this morning. He believes 2531 02:01:16,760 --> 02:01:19,560 Speaker 2: it is a clean slate for Kyrie Elam coming into 2532 02:01:19,600 --> 02:01:21,560 Speaker 2: this training camp. Look, he was playing well in last 2533 02:01:21,640 --> 02:01:24,200 Speaker 2: year's training camp, then he has the foot injury, tries 2534 02:01:24,240 --> 02:01:26,920 Speaker 2: to play through it makes it worse, and then five 2535 02:01:27,040 --> 02:01:28,680 Speaker 2: six games into the season they gotta pu him on 2536 02:01:28,720 --> 02:01:29,320 Speaker 2: injured reserve. 2537 02:01:29,520 --> 02:01:33,440 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, and it turned into a lost season. Yeah, 2538 02:01:33,600 --> 02:01:38,520 Speaker 3: So you gotta kind of count that as you know, 2539 02:01:38,800 --> 02:01:41,560 Speaker 3: trying to protect him from himself and him not having it. 2540 02:01:41,680 --> 02:01:44,800 Speaker 3: I agree with yet, Damar is another story. We'll see 2541 02:01:44,800 --> 02:01:46,920 Speaker 3: a bunch of different one yeah, it's a much different one. 2542 02:01:48,120 --> 02:01:50,320 Speaker 3: He's out there competing, practicing just like he has. But 2543 02:01:51,280 --> 02:01:53,760 Speaker 3: but Damar was a backup even in the in the 2544 02:01:53,840 --> 02:01:55,880 Speaker 3: season where he got injured and he. 2545 02:01:55,920 --> 02:01:57,880 Speaker 2: Has he was playing for Mikel Hyde who was out 2546 02:01:57,880 --> 02:01:58,240 Speaker 2: with an echa. 2547 02:01:58,320 --> 02:01:59,760 Speaker 3: He's continued to be that. 2548 02:02:00,160 --> 02:02:03,160 Speaker 2: But Brandon Bean had an interesting comment about that today 2549 02:02:03,200 --> 02:02:07,040 Speaker 2: because he said last year, Damar was just trying to 2550 02:02:07,040 --> 02:02:10,440 Speaker 2: get through the season so soon off of the cardiac event. 2551 02:02:11,040 --> 02:02:13,520 Speaker 2: He was just trying to get back to playing football again. 2552 02:02:14,120 --> 02:02:16,280 Speaker 2: And now he sees a difference in him. He's noticed 2553 02:02:16,280 --> 02:02:18,320 Speaker 2: it in the spring. He saw it out here today 2554 02:02:18,360 --> 02:02:20,640 Speaker 2: and Hamlin flashed a couple of times in the low 2555 02:02:20,760 --> 02:02:25,320 Speaker 2: red area. He's now mentally charged to try and go 2556 02:02:25,440 --> 02:02:28,280 Speaker 2: win a job, and that's a totally different mindset than 2557 02:02:28,320 --> 02:02:29,080 Speaker 2: where he was last year. 2558 02:02:29,080 --> 02:02:31,200 Speaker 3: At this he's light years from where he was a 2559 02:02:31,320 --> 02:02:35,160 Speaker 3: year ago. And it'll probably show in some ways. So 2560 02:02:35,360 --> 02:02:37,760 Speaker 3: it'll it'll be interesting to see tomorrow what kind of 2561 02:02:37,800 --> 02:02:38,600 Speaker 3: training camp he has. 2562 02:02:39,320 --> 02:02:41,960 Speaker 2: Elliott on the tweet sheet says Von Miller has to 2563 02:02:42,040 --> 02:02:45,280 Speaker 2: show us something to justify the rest of his contract. Now, 2564 02:02:45,400 --> 02:02:46,880 Speaker 2: let's not forget he did take an eight and a 2565 02:02:46,920 --> 02:02:51,280 Speaker 2: half million dollar haircut on his contract. He restructured to 2566 02:02:51,400 --> 02:02:54,440 Speaker 2: help the team and create more cap space for them, 2567 02:02:54,960 --> 02:02:56,560 Speaker 2: So you got to tip your hat to him for that. 2568 02:02:57,600 --> 02:02:59,480 Speaker 2: He did make the comment in the off season that 2569 02:02:59,560 --> 02:03:02,640 Speaker 2: he thought he shouldn't have played last season. Now I 2570 02:03:02,720 --> 02:03:06,360 Speaker 2: think that's him kind of reassessing himself because if you remember, 2571 02:03:06,960 --> 02:03:09,600 Speaker 2: it was the Bills that actually held him back from 2572 02:03:09,720 --> 02:03:12,240 Speaker 2: starting the season. He wanted to play Week one, yeah, 2573 02:03:12,280 --> 02:03:14,680 Speaker 2: and they made him sit the first four games just 2574 02:03:14,720 --> 02:03:17,160 Speaker 2: to kind of give him more time to recover from 2575 02:03:17,200 --> 02:03:21,480 Speaker 2: the ACL knee injury. So maybe he in hindsight realizes 2576 02:03:21,840 --> 02:03:24,520 Speaker 2: that his zest and zeal to get back on the 2577 02:03:24,560 --> 02:03:26,360 Speaker 2: field may have not been the best thing for him. 2578 02:03:26,800 --> 02:03:30,120 Speaker 3: That's typical of great players. They want to be out 2579 02:03:30,160 --> 02:03:31,800 Speaker 3: there playing, They want to be on the field, and 2580 02:03:31,880 --> 02:03:34,120 Speaker 3: they pushed to get there, whether they're ready or not, 2581 02:03:34,320 --> 02:03:36,160 Speaker 3: or whether they're one hundred percent or not. And that's 2582 02:03:36,240 --> 02:03:38,280 Speaker 3: you know, only in retrospect you sit back and go, yah, 2583 02:03:38,320 --> 02:03:41,880 Speaker 3: it's probably a mistake. Well, you know, instead of losing 2584 02:03:41,960 --> 02:03:44,440 Speaker 3: the entire year, he got some reps back, but it 2585 02:03:44,600 --> 02:03:46,520 Speaker 3: was you know, it was less than fulfilling for him 2586 02:03:46,560 --> 02:03:48,400 Speaker 3: and the club, you know, so. 2587 02:03:49,440 --> 02:03:51,560 Speaker 2: You know what comes of it. We're gonna have to 2588 02:03:51,600 --> 02:03:52,720 Speaker 2: wait and see, and I don't know if we're going 2589 02:03:52,760 --> 02:03:55,040 Speaker 2: to be able to make an accurate assessment till the 2590 02:03:55,120 --> 02:03:57,480 Speaker 2: pads are on. And who knows if von Miller even 2591 02:03:57,520 --> 02:03:59,560 Speaker 2: takes the field in preseason, We may not know until 2592 02:03:59,600 --> 02:04:04,000 Speaker 2: week one. From Bill's digest, kai yr Elip he needs 2593 02:04:04,040 --> 02:04:06,280 Speaker 2: to prove he belongs after being taken in the first round. 2594 02:04:06,280 --> 02:04:08,520 Speaker 2: He's had two disappointing seasons to date. Here three is 2595 02:04:08,600 --> 02:04:11,000 Speaker 2: make or break year for him. Kind of covered that, 2596 02:04:11,640 --> 02:04:15,600 Speaker 2: Tom says, the entire receiving group, they have to prove 2597 02:04:15,720 --> 02:04:19,880 Speaker 2: there is life after the Davis Diggs departures. Yeah, and 2598 02:04:20,000 --> 02:04:22,360 Speaker 2: don't forget Sherfield and Herti are out the door as well. 2599 02:04:22,520 --> 02:04:25,960 Speaker 2: So it has been washed through in a big way, 2600 02:04:26,040 --> 02:04:31,200 Speaker 2: the receiving position. So there are roles and jobs to 2601 02:04:31,280 --> 02:04:33,800 Speaker 2: be had there. Who wants to come out and seize it, 2602 02:04:34,160 --> 02:04:34,840 Speaker 2: that's the question. 2603 02:04:35,040 --> 02:04:35,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, And. 2604 02:04:37,000 --> 02:04:39,040 Speaker 3: They're gonna have They're gonna take the field. They're gonna 2605 02:04:39,080 --> 02:04:42,240 Speaker 3: have like six or seven guys on the roster. Who 2606 02:04:42,240 --> 02:04:44,880 Speaker 3: it's gonna be, isn't They're not gonna leave those spots vacant, 2607 02:04:45,360 --> 02:04:47,880 Speaker 3: you know, it's gotta be some of those guys. Somebody's 2608 02:04:47,920 --> 02:04:52,880 Speaker 3: gonna emerge, and I think that I think Josh I'll 2609 02:04:52,880 --> 02:04:54,640 Speaker 3: have a little bit of a voice in that, no question, 2610 02:04:56,160 --> 02:04:59,440 Speaker 3: but yeah, we're gonna see that take place in that 2611 02:04:59,560 --> 02:05:02,400 Speaker 3: decision be made right before our eyes this preseason. 2612 02:05:02,080 --> 02:05:04,240 Speaker 2: Right and I think people have in their minds eye 2613 02:05:04,960 --> 02:05:08,240 Speaker 2: who the top four receivers will be. It's receiver five 2614 02:05:08,360 --> 02:05:13,000 Speaker 2: and six. Where it's really gonna be nip and tuck 2615 02:05:13,520 --> 02:05:16,520 Speaker 2: all through camp and the preseason, where you essentially have 2616 02:05:17,520 --> 02:05:21,600 Speaker 2: nine guys battling for two spots. That's probably where it 2617 02:05:21,680 --> 02:05:27,000 Speaker 2: shakes out. That's a very lopsided supply and demand situation, 2618 02:05:28,360 --> 02:05:32,080 Speaker 2: especially knowing even knowing the fact they'll probably carry two 2619 02:05:32,120 --> 02:05:36,360 Speaker 2: more receivers on the sixteen player practice squad. Andrew on 2620 02:05:36,400 --> 02:05:38,880 Speaker 2: the tweet sheet says Tyler Bass reason he did not 2621 02:05:39,000 --> 02:05:41,000 Speaker 2: have a good season last season and he knows that, 2622 02:05:41,480 --> 02:05:43,120 Speaker 2: so I expect him to be a lot better this 2623 02:05:43,240 --> 02:05:46,720 Speaker 2: coming season, especially with having competition in this year's camp 2624 02:05:47,160 --> 02:05:51,080 Speaker 2: and preseason. Yeat Jack Browning, the rookie from San Diego State, 2625 02:05:51,640 --> 02:05:56,320 Speaker 2: is a punter first, kickers second. He's essentially here more 2626 02:05:56,360 --> 02:05:59,400 Speaker 2: to compete with Sam Martin than he is with Tyler Bass, 2627 02:05:59,520 --> 02:06:04,480 Speaker 2: but he can and place kick, so that's there. I 2628 02:06:04,560 --> 02:06:07,760 Speaker 2: don't think that's what's necessary to stoke the flames of 2629 02:06:07,840 --> 02:06:12,400 Speaker 2: competition in Tyler Bass. I think he he competes against himself, 2630 02:06:12,560 --> 02:06:15,960 Speaker 2: probably more than anything, sure, especially after the way last 2631 02:06:15,960 --> 02:06:16,480 Speaker 2: season went. 2632 02:06:17,400 --> 02:06:22,000 Speaker 3: That's right, and more so than anything everybody else than 2633 02:06:22,280 --> 02:06:26,040 Speaker 3: Tyler bass is. It's a very thumbs up thumb down business. 2634 02:06:26,320 --> 02:06:27,440 Speaker 3: It's either yes or no. 2635 02:06:27,600 --> 02:06:28,440 Speaker 2: You made it any miss it? 2636 02:06:28,520 --> 02:06:30,640 Speaker 3: Yep, well you got a block and they don't care. 2637 02:06:31,840 --> 02:06:33,720 Speaker 3: They don't care about anything he said, did you make 2638 02:06:33,760 --> 02:06:34,480 Speaker 3: it or missing? Yeah? 2639 02:06:34,480 --> 02:06:36,840 Speaker 2: And I would like to think with a season last 2640 02:06:36,920 --> 02:06:39,560 Speaker 2: year that was clearly below his own standards, that he 2641 02:06:39,600 --> 02:06:42,440 Speaker 2: has redoubled his efforts to be the accurate kicker we 2642 02:06:42,720 --> 02:06:45,560 Speaker 2: have all come to know him to be. Uh Luke 2643 02:06:45,720 --> 02:06:47,800 Speaker 2: on the tweets sheet says Von Miller can prove his 2644 02:06:47,920 --> 02:06:50,320 Speaker 2: career as an overriate and there are still some exciting 2645 02:06:50,440 --> 02:06:53,160 Speaker 2: chapters to write. The whole Wide Receiver Room can prove 2646 02:06:53,200 --> 02:06:55,400 Speaker 2: that they are not a group of nobody's. It was 2647 02:06:55,480 --> 02:06:58,880 Speaker 2: interesting to hear coach McDermott talk about the receiving corps 2648 02:06:58,920 --> 02:07:02,240 Speaker 2: this morning when he addressed the media He essentially said 2649 02:07:02,280 --> 02:07:05,880 Speaker 2: it's a diverse group and there may not be a 2650 02:07:06,040 --> 02:07:09,280 Speaker 2: number one receiver per se, but he said, I have 2651 02:07:09,600 --> 02:07:12,080 Speaker 2: full confidence that that group is going to rise to 2652 02:07:12,200 --> 02:07:15,440 Speaker 2: the occasion, which I found to be an interesting answer 2653 02:07:15,480 --> 02:07:18,360 Speaker 2: because it wasn't like we expect someone from this group 2654 02:07:18,440 --> 02:07:21,240 Speaker 2: to emerge as the number one. He still kept it 2655 02:07:21,320 --> 02:07:24,600 Speaker 2: a group. I expect the group to rise to the occasion. 2656 02:07:24,840 --> 02:07:26,840 Speaker 2: I think that's very telling as to what he's thinking. 2657 02:07:26,920 --> 02:07:29,760 Speaker 2: I think coach McDermott believes we don't have a Stefan 2658 02:07:29,800 --> 02:07:32,920 Speaker 2: Diggs in this group, but as a collective group, we're 2659 02:07:32,960 --> 02:07:34,760 Speaker 2: going to produce more for this offense. 2660 02:07:34,920 --> 02:07:38,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, between Digs and Dave has had one hundred and 2661 02:07:38,040 --> 02:07:42,040 Speaker 3: fifty catches and just over nineteen hundred yards. I think 2662 02:07:42,080 --> 02:07:44,760 Speaker 3: the two guys on the roster, maybe the three or 2663 02:07:44,920 --> 02:07:47,280 Speaker 3: four guys left on the roster, are going to more 2664 02:07:47,360 --> 02:07:50,720 Speaker 3: than make up for those catches and end those yards 2665 02:07:50,800 --> 02:07:54,600 Speaker 3: and probably those touchdowns as well. But I think also 2666 02:07:56,280 --> 02:08:00,440 Speaker 3: even at this early stage, like you said said earlier 2667 02:08:00,480 --> 02:08:02,280 Speaker 3: in the show, I think Dalton Kincaid's going to be 2668 02:08:02,320 --> 02:08:05,720 Speaker 3: the number one target getter and about close behind him 2669 02:08:05,720 --> 02:08:07,480 Speaker 3: will be Kolilshakir. 2670 02:08:08,800 --> 02:08:12,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I could see Samuel being third pretty pretty easily. 2671 02:08:12,360 --> 02:08:14,520 Speaker 2: You might be able to flip flop you here and Samuel, 2672 02:08:14,560 --> 02:08:17,800 Speaker 2: Well sure, but yeah, you know what, now that I'm 2673 02:08:17,800 --> 02:08:20,080 Speaker 2: thinking about it, we didn't see a lot from Samuel today. 2674 02:08:20,160 --> 02:08:23,760 Speaker 2: He didn't, right, I don't think he caught more than 2675 02:08:23,840 --> 02:08:26,400 Speaker 2: one ball. I don't remember when the team seeing him. 2676 02:08:27,400 --> 02:08:31,720 Speaker 2: So that's that's interesting. We'll see if that changes going forward. 2677 02:08:32,200 --> 02:08:34,360 Speaker 2: Michael on the tweets, she says got to be Elim 2678 02:08:34,840 --> 02:08:37,240 Speaker 2: or Coleman. Elm needs to have a good year and 2679 02:08:37,320 --> 02:08:39,240 Speaker 2: the depth of cornerback isn't deep, so the Bills could 2680 02:08:39,320 --> 02:08:41,000 Speaker 2: need him. He has a lot to prove as a 2681 02:08:41,040 --> 02:08:43,600 Speaker 2: first round pick. Coleman has big shoes to fill and 2682 02:08:43,680 --> 02:08:46,280 Speaker 2: is being asked to fill some big shoes. There's a 2683 02:08:46,360 --> 02:08:49,880 Speaker 2: lot of hype around him along with hope. Yeah, and 2684 02:08:50,680 --> 02:08:53,800 Speaker 2: if the early returns today are any indication, people can 2685 02:08:53,840 --> 02:08:55,720 Speaker 2: start getting a little excited. He is a very loose 2686 02:08:55,800 --> 02:08:59,840 Speaker 2: athlete with insane playmaking ability above the rim. 2687 02:09:00,160 --> 02:09:01,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, you can just. 2688 02:09:01,880 --> 02:09:03,440 Speaker 2: Throw it up nine feet in the air, he'll go 2689 02:09:03,520 --> 02:09:03,800 Speaker 2: get it. 2690 02:09:04,440 --> 02:09:07,440 Speaker 3: He'll get it with both hands. Yeah, he was really 2691 02:09:07,480 --> 02:09:11,440 Speaker 3: impressive today and he looked the part you would never 2692 02:09:11,680 --> 02:09:15,920 Speaker 3: you would not have tabbed him as a first NFL 2693 02:09:16,040 --> 02:09:17,600 Speaker 3: practice today. 2694 02:09:18,320 --> 02:09:21,320 Speaker 2: I will say, though, you know, as far as Michael's 2695 02:09:21,360 --> 02:09:24,000 Speaker 2: concerned with this comment, I don't think you should look 2696 02:09:24,040 --> 02:09:28,320 Speaker 2: at Coleman and think he's replacing Diggs. I don't see 2697 02:09:28,360 --> 02:09:31,560 Speaker 2: that happening. I think is this is a group effort, 2698 02:09:32,160 --> 02:09:34,600 Speaker 2: a very democratic approach to the passing game that we're 2699 02:09:34,640 --> 02:09:38,640 Speaker 2: going to witness going forward. And we've talked about how 2700 02:09:38,720 --> 02:09:41,240 Speaker 2: that's gonna benefit Josh and how it's going to benefit 2701 02:09:41,320 --> 02:09:43,720 Speaker 2: the receivers. It's gonna benefit Josh in the number of ways. 2702 02:09:43,800 --> 02:09:46,280 Speaker 2: Number one, every one of those receivers knows on any 2703 02:09:46,320 --> 02:09:48,760 Speaker 2: given play they could get the ball because there isn't 2704 02:09:48,760 --> 02:09:51,040 Speaker 2: an alpha male that they've got a fource feet, you 2705 02:09:51,080 --> 02:09:52,640 Speaker 2: know what I mean. And then on top of that, 2706 02:09:53,360 --> 02:09:55,400 Speaker 2: knowing there isn't a guy you have to keep happy 2707 02:09:56,160 --> 02:09:59,720 Speaker 2: or give targets or go to every critical third down 2708 02:09:59,760 --> 02:10:03,520 Speaker 2: sit situation that allows Josh to just read the play 2709 02:10:04,000 --> 02:10:08,000 Speaker 2: and make the decision rather than go against the nature 2710 02:10:08,160 --> 02:10:10,320 Speaker 2: of the design of the play to try to make 2711 02:10:10,360 --> 02:10:12,240 Speaker 2: a play with a guy that's expecting the ball. 2712 02:10:12,440 --> 02:10:19,480 Speaker 3: The target shares is something different than the situational targets. 2713 02:10:21,480 --> 02:10:23,320 Speaker 3: When you get down in the red zone, you're gonna 2714 02:10:23,440 --> 02:10:26,600 Speaker 3: you know, you've got different thoughts and processes, and the 2715 02:10:26,720 --> 02:10:28,760 Speaker 3: fact that they've got all these guys that are just 2716 02:10:28,840 --> 02:10:31,800 Speaker 3: kind of kind of get what they earn. This offense 2717 02:10:31,920 --> 02:10:34,240 Speaker 3: is gonna or I think it's gonna organically evolve through 2718 02:10:34,280 --> 02:10:36,440 Speaker 3: this preseason, through the early part of the regular season 2719 02:10:36,520 --> 02:10:39,320 Speaker 3: into Okay, in these situations, we're gonna do these kind 2720 02:10:39,360 --> 02:10:42,360 Speaker 3: of things with these guys on the field. I don't 2721 02:10:42,360 --> 02:10:44,600 Speaker 3: think there's gonna be up time where they say, Okay, 2722 02:10:44,640 --> 02:10:46,160 Speaker 3: we're just gonna ligne our guy up out there and 2723 02:10:46,200 --> 02:10:52,680 Speaker 3: have him win. I think this group is is gonna 2724 02:10:52,720 --> 02:10:54,560 Speaker 3: get it done. I really do. They're gonna be that good. 2725 02:10:54,640 --> 02:10:57,040 Speaker 3: We saw today, Goodness gracious, right out of the gate, 2726 02:10:58,680 --> 02:11:01,080 Speaker 3: they're throwing the ball all over the garden and catching it, 2727 02:11:01,200 --> 02:11:03,120 Speaker 3: coming down with it in the end zone. Everybody was 2728 02:11:03,240 --> 02:11:08,760 Speaker 3: every you know, it was Knocks, Kincaid, colemankir they were 2729 02:11:08,800 --> 02:11:11,800 Speaker 3: all catching touchdowns. So I'm you know, I think this 2730 02:11:11,960 --> 02:11:13,800 Speaker 3: is organically going to change into something. We don't know 2731 02:11:13,840 --> 02:11:16,520 Speaker 3: what it's gonna be yet, but the coaching staff has 2732 02:11:16,560 --> 02:11:19,800 Speaker 3: the ability to, you know, kind of spread it around 2733 02:11:19,880 --> 02:11:23,040 Speaker 3: to wherever who's giving them more on their investment, you know, 2734 02:11:23,360 --> 02:11:25,400 Speaker 3: and they'll and that's where the offense is gonna go, 2735 02:11:25,440 --> 02:11:26,240 Speaker 3: and that's what it's gonna look. 2736 02:11:26,440 --> 02:11:27,720 Speaker 2: And we don't know what that's gonna be, and that 2737 02:11:27,800 --> 02:11:30,240 Speaker 2: can shift and change all through the season. Absolutely, so 2738 02:11:30,840 --> 02:11:33,320 Speaker 2: it'll be an interesting thing to see unfold, not only 2739 02:11:33,400 --> 02:11:35,400 Speaker 2: through the course of camp in the preseason, but the 2740 02:11:35,440 --> 02:11:36,400 Speaker 2: regular season as well. 2741 02:11:36,480 --> 02:11:37,680 Speaker 3: It could change week to week. 2742 02:11:38,080 --> 02:11:40,280 Speaker 2: Yes, you know, based on the opponent and based on 2743 02:11:40,360 --> 02:11:43,080 Speaker 2: who's been hot. That's right, who's winning. Got to take 2744 02:11:43,080 --> 02:11:45,680 Speaker 2: a break here one segment to go on day one 2745 02:11:45,960 --> 02:11:48,440 Speaker 2: of Bill's training camp.

I don't 2758 02:12:36,040 --> 02:12:39,120 Speaker 2: know if you saw this, Steve, but the NFL Scouting 2759 02:12:39,240 --> 02:12:43,200 Speaker 2: Combine has a new sponsor. It previously was Noble, it 2760 02:12:43,360 --> 02:12:46,960 Speaker 2: is now New Era. New Era is the new sponsor 2761 02:12:47,800 --> 02:12:52,000 Speaker 2: of the NFL Scouting Combine. So when we're there next March, Steve, 2762 02:12:52,680 --> 02:12:55,440 Speaker 2: maybe some hat swag in the offing. I'm just saying, 2763 02:12:56,040 --> 02:12:58,160 Speaker 2: might get a cap out of the deal, don't you know. 2764 02:12:58,320 --> 02:12:59,040 Speaker 2: Don't hold your breath. 2765 02:12:59,120 --> 02:12:59,800 Speaker 3: I'm all about it. 2766 02:13:00,160 --> 02:13:03,760 Speaker 2: But congrats to a New Era Cap for becoming the sponsor. 2767 02:13:03,840 --> 02:13:06,320 Speaker 2: Regrets to New Era the NFL Combine. 2768 02:13:06,360 --> 02:13:07,360 Speaker 3: I got my New Era hat. 2769 02:13:07,520 --> 02:13:11,440 Speaker 2: Human.

Steve and I do a full 2774 02:13:23,200 --> 02:13:26,640 Speaker 2: roster run down and ask three or four super pertinent 2775 02:13:26,760 --> 02:13:30,840 Speaker 2: questions as far as the twenty twenty four roster is concerned. 2776 02:13:31,280 --> 02:13:34,720 Speaker 2: In addition to that, we ask who has more work 2777 02:13:34,840 --> 02:13:38,000 Speaker 2: to do between the coordinators to make their side of 2778 02:13:38,040 --> 02:13:41,920 Speaker 2: the ball consistent and effective. And I think we both 2779 02:13:42,000 --> 02:13:45,440 Speaker 2: said Babbage, Yeah, because of the turner. 2780 02:13:45,200 --> 02:13:48,040 Speaker 3: Did, because of the defensive personnel turnover. Plus it's his 2781 02:13:48,080 --> 02:13:50,480 Speaker 3: first years ahead as a coordinator that kind of thing, 2782 02:13:50,560 --> 02:13:51,360 Speaker 3: So yeah, he's got a. 2783 02:13:51,360 --> 02:13:51,640 Speaker 4: Lot of work. 2784 02:13:51,680 --> 02:13:53,760 Speaker 2: So check out our podcast, Bills by the Numbers.
