It's mid season after today, 3 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 1: eight games left. The Bills still have to find a 4 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,439 Speaker 1: way to score points. Playoffs right there on the table. 5 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 1: But the Bills have to find a playoff caliber offensive 6 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: approach sooner or later. The snap and they pitch at 7 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 1: the singletary. The Motor left side gets a couple of 8 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: good blocks inside the twenty, down inside the fifteen, and 9 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: wrestled out a bound at about the nine yard line. 10 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,279 Speaker 1: A sixteen yard pickup for the Motor. Second and goal 11 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: from the six play action, Big Josh Allen fires into 12 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: the endide, caught by Beasley. Touchdown Buffalo Cole Beasley three 13 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 1: touchdowns in three straight games for him and the Bill 14 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: strike first with a six yard pass from Josh Allen. 15 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: Snamp turns. Give us at the Frank Gore and he's 16 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: meaning a stiff wall watching indefender is not gonna get there. Snap. 17 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: Here's Gore again, this time banging off body, trying to 18 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: force his way in and I don't think so didn't 19 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 1: get it. Frank Gore again, this time cuts to his right, 20 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 1: treat straight Frank Gore runs come up empty, Alan under center, 21 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 1: gonna keep it himself to push him in and there 22 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: it is. Touchdown Buffalo. Josh Allen runs it in down 23 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,119 Speaker 1: the quarterback keeper right up the middle. They gave him 24 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: a big assist from behind. Askins back in there, gets 25 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: under center, now fires a screen pass caught by Peterson. 26 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: Beat one man around the corner, gets inside the Buffalo 27 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: thirty inside the twenty five, and finally Tremaine Edmunds brings 28 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: him down. Adrian Peterson himself a hundred and one yards 29 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: on only ten attempts today. Low snap, Askins handles it. 30 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: Here comes pressure. He's in trouble that he is dropped. 31 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,119 Speaker 1: He is set Tradaba, his white trade a drops him 32 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: at the four yard line. Shotgun snap. Allan looks left, 33 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: scans the field, looks to his right, throws it near sideline. 34 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: It is caught by John Brown and he goes out 35 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: of bounds at the fourteen yard line. Here's the snap, 36 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: and they're gonna run it Singletary. The motor cruises into 37 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: the end zone. Touchdown Buffalo Devin Singletary from two yards out, 38 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: touchdown Bill Well. The Bills now six wins two losses 39 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: since nineteen ninety teams that starts six and two have 40 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: an eighty one percent chance of making the playoffs. Set 41 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: up well for the second half of the season, to 42 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: be sure they are. That's the Game Rewind presented by Toshiba, 43 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: the official copy or company of the Buffalo Bill. They 44 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: are set up extremely well. We're set up pretty well 45 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: up here as well. Hello, welcome to the show. This 46 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: is one Bill's Live. I'm John Murphy. Chris Brown is 47 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 1: in for the vacationing steave tasker Eric Wood joins us 48 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: time this Monday after a home game. Gentlemen, good afternoon, 49 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,519 Speaker 1: Thanks coming in. Good to be here, my pleasure. Yeah, 50 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: I'd love to have you guys here. Thanks. And that's 51 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: the basic setup, Chris. I mean, there's six and two, 52 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 1: no matter how you get the six and two. Six 53 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,959 Speaker 1: and two at the midway point of the season means 54 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: you're on to something good here, Yeah, and something that 55 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: this franchise hasn't been on too and yeah quite sometime. 56 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 1: So soak it up, enjoy it. Try to not get 57 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: too overly analytical with some of the things that the 58 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: Bills may still stub their toe on from time to time, 59 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: because that's still going to happen with a lot of 60 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: the pieces still trying to meld together, so to speak, 61 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 1: so they're going to be hiccups. It's hard to play 62 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: a perfect game in this league with the level of 63 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: competition that it offers. So take six and two to 64 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: the bank, Enjoy six and two. Take it to the bank, 65 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: Enjoy the road to six and two. Eric, It's been 66 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: fun so far this first half season. It has and 67 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: a lot of memorable moments through eight games. And I 68 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: think the best part about it is, you know, Bills 69 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: fans are critical right now of the six and two 70 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: start of aspects, especially some of the offense, some of 71 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: the runch defense. And I think that's a great sign. 72 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: It's a great sign that the Bills are six and 73 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: two and we can still say, man, they need to 74 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: get better with the rush defens they need to get 75 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: better with explosive plays on offense. They need to improve 76 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: their point totals on offense. And you love to be 77 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: six and two and saying, wow, we have this much 78 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: room to grow. Still. Yeah, I like that too, and 79 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: I I appreciate that people. You can see the faults. 80 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: The faults are there. They are nowhere near flawless. But 81 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: I just worry sometimes, Eric that people might not appreciate 82 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: what it takes to get to six and two, and 83 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: regardless of who you're playing and how much fun it 84 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: can be. If you're six and two and you got 85 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: half a season left, you're set up for a really 86 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: fun ride down the stretch, which had been rare here 87 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: in Buffalo over the years. Absolutely. You know, last year 88 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: the Bills didn't play a meaningful week seventeen game. I 89 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: only played him one my entire career. So to be 90 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: sitting at six and two with a lot of momentum 91 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: moving forward, you know, you have your second year quarterback 92 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: that you have that has so much upside and so 93 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: much talent. You have all these young pieces on this 94 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: Bills team. You know, there's a lot to be optimistic 95 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: about in Orchard Park. I think the second year quarterback 96 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: took steps forward yesterday, Chris, what about you? Yeah, I 97 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: liked him in particular on most of his third down 98 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: decision making. Yesterday, I thought he was pretty good on 99 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: third down. He's actually moved up in some league rankings, 100 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 1: which I may address in No Worthy Numbers column tomorrow 101 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,799 Speaker 1: on Buffalo Bills dot Com. If I asked Bills fans 102 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: where they think he ranks as a quarterback on third 103 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: down this year? Where do you think they'd probably put 104 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: him down near the bottom. Yeah, he's right in the 105 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: middle of the league. It's fifteenth right now in third 106 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: down passer rating, which you know goes into the decisions 107 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: that he has to make for this offense on third down. 108 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 1: That's not Pro Bowl level, it's not all star potential 109 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: or you know, all star numbers. But for a second 110 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: year quarterback, you know who's on nineteen sitting on nineteen starts. 111 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: That can help you win when you have a top 112 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: five defense. So you know, people can argue all they 113 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 1: want about the approach of this offense and how it's 114 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 1: in star contrast to last year's offense, but the bottom 115 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: line is this, it's a more efficient offense. It's it's 116 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: been more effective on the whole. I think both run 117 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: and pass and so do you want more sure? But 118 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: I think this is an approach that is going to continue. 119 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 1: They're going to bring Josh along with baby steps. They're 120 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: not going to put an overwhelming amount of stuff on 121 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: his plate because I think if they do that, I 122 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: think they worry that Josh being the competitor he is 123 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: is going to almost try too hard to deliver, and 124 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: then that's when some of those mistakes show up and 125 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 1: hero ball surfaces. I think they're trying to bring him 126 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: along in a methodical fashion that slowly moves the needle 127 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: towards a more consistent, maybe not necessarily dominant quarterback, but 128 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: a quarterback who eventually, at some point in time, will 129 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: be able to lift you up and win games for you. 130 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: We've seen flashes of it. You can go all the 131 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: way back to the Miami game in his rookie year 132 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: when he put the team on his back and almost 133 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 1: won the game single handedly. Down there. There haven't been 134 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: too many of those in his first two years, but 135 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: I think it's due mainly to the fact that they 136 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: don't try to put that on him because they know 137 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: he's learning on the job. And you mentioned being middle 138 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: of the pack on third down. The last two weeks. 139 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: You're playing in a windstorm and Orchard Park. Yeah, you 140 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: have nine new offensive starters this year. You have your 141 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: tight end Tyler Croft that you bring in. Finally gets 142 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: back a couple of weeks ago. Devin Singletary plays the 143 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: first two games, then misses a number of games. You 144 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: have all these factors contributing into that. Also, heading into 145 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 1: the game last week, the most pre snap penalties in 146 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: the league, so you're starting on a number of first 147 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: and fifteen's, first and twenties, and those don't lead to 148 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: advantageous third downs. Some of his third and long completions 149 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: this year have been absolutely phenomenal. The way he's able 150 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: to scramble, keep his eyes down the field. I thought yesterday, 151 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: I believe it was a third and sixteen in the 152 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: fourth quarter that he completed to John Brown, which was 153 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: similar to a few He's done that a couple of 154 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: times this year to John Brown. Their chemistry beating man 155 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: defense on third down this year, especially third and longs, 156 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: has been phenomenal, right, And I think the difference yesterday, 157 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: and I know we're gonna be talking a lot about 158 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: this guy, but Devin Singletary and what he brought to 159 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: the offense in terms of first down production. And it 160 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: wasn't just him in the first half. Frank had a 161 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: couple of runs too. But I made a note of 162 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: this and even put it in the top three things 163 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: we learned from that game yesterday. The first down production 164 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: on the ground yesterday was instrumental in keeping this offense 165 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: on schedule in the first half, whether it was getting 166 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: four yards here, six yards there, eight yards. He even 167 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: had a seventeen yard carry on a first down early 168 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 1: in the game, and it was instrumental in those first 169 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,839 Speaker 1: two scoring drives resulting in points. Granted, they didn't have 170 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: a good red zone series on that second possession when 171 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 1: they went backwards and had to settle for the field goal, 172 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 1: but still, because they were productive on first down with 173 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: the running game and it wasn't Josh running the ball, 174 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: they were able to stay in second and manageable third 175 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: and manageable stay on the field, and they didn't need 176 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 1: Josh to do some third and long hero type play. Yeah, 177 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting yesterday you mentioned not Josh 178 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: running the ball. I believe zero zero designed quarterback runs. 179 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: Yesterday I didn't see any, Yeah, zero designed. You know, 180 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: he scrambled a couple of times, but there was zero 181 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 1: designed run calls from Josh Allen. Maybe a product of 182 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: the fumbles in previous weeks. Maybe they're trying to get 183 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: less and less shots on him. As the season goes 184 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,959 Speaker 1: forward and you start inching closer to playoff time, you 185 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: want your quarterback out one hundred percent. But I mentioned 186 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: it during the broadcast yesterday. Very impressed from the rookie 187 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: running back Devin Singletary how he's willing to take four. 188 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: Not all running backs, especially young guys in this league, 189 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: especially guys who are shifty or want to make the 190 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: big play type, not all of them are willing to 191 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: take four. And four is a great number on first down, 192 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: Second and six opens up the entire playbook. Second and 193 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: ten dozen't. And oftentimes, if you're trying to get twelve, 194 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 1: every time you have the ball in your hands, you're 195 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: going to lose yards and that makes it so tough 196 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: on an offensive coordinator. Hey, so we're gonna talk about 197 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: yesterday's game, obviously, the twenty four nine Buffalo win over 198 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: Washington with Eric will be with us here this hour. 199 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: Chris would be with us all day, and we will 200 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: look at the flaws and there were many, and there 201 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: are many in the Bills approach, but we also want 202 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: to talk about what went well, and there was a 203 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: lot that went well. Our Twitter poll today the Bills 204 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: off to the best start through eight games since nineteen 205 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: ninety three. Did they get enough credit for their six 206 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: and two start and you can figure it out yourself. 207 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: Did they get credit from the media, from from so 208 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: called Bills fans? Are they getting enough credit for having 209 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,959 Speaker 1: six wins two losses? Let us know what you think. 210 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: The phone lines open eight oh three oh five fifty 211 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: toll free from outside Buffalo one eight eight eight five 212 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: fifty two five fifty. We've already got close to three 213 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: hundred votes in on the Twitter poll and fifty nine 214 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 1: percent who say no, forty one percent say yes. Pretty 215 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 1: simple poll. I don't want people feeling sorry for the 216 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 1: Bills not getting enough credit, but I do think that 217 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: it gets lost sometimes in our in our eagerness to 218 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: pick up our what went wrong and stuff went wrong yesterday, 219 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: right the run defense. We'll talk about that stage short 220 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: yardage offense. That was a problem yesterday. We'll talk about that. 221 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: But here they are at six and two, third best 222 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: record in the AMC. What one of only how many 223 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 1: teams have fewer or I'm many teams have two or 224 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,719 Speaker 1: less losses? Only a couple right in the league. You're 225 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: talking New England, you're talking in San Francisco, you're talking 226 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: I'm thinking off the top of they have one of 227 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: the best records in the NFL, and I don't know. Look, 228 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 1: and they don't need credit, by the way, Well here's 229 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 1: the problem. The problem is critics will look at their 230 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 1: schedule and say, yeah, who have they played? Well, you 231 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: can't blame the Bills for whose who their schedule? Like 232 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: what happens if you know, let's just say New England, 233 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: for example, gets to play the Chiefs without Pat Mahomes. Wow, 234 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: then they beat him, but it was a happen We're 235 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: gonna discount that, like it's the same thing. So the 236 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: Bills got scheduled who they got scheduled? These are their 237 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: sixteen opponents obviously, you know, three division opponents twice each, 238 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: and so that's who they got to play, right, I mean, 239 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,959 Speaker 1: you can't fault them for who's own their schedule. You can't. 240 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: And Eric I want I think this too, and I'm 241 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: a big proponent as Chris Noos of um, you know, 242 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: it's it's a different game every week, right, one week 243 00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: is not like last week to week to week leak 244 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: and when you get into the season deep now where 245 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: they're at mid season, Now, look, the way they're playing 246 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 1: now might not be the way they play a month 247 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: from now. And if you just keep racking up wins. 248 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: However you can. Whether it's giving up too much yards 249 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: on the ground or not being able to convert the 250 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: short yard of situations on offense. Who knows what it 251 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:19,719 Speaker 1: looked like a month from now. The key is to 252 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: win even when things aren't perfect. Right absolutely, And like 253 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier, I think one of the best things 254 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: right now is that we can sit here and be 255 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 1: critical of the Bills at six and two because that 256 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: shows how much room they have to grow. But you know, 257 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 1: I think one thing Sean McDermott does a great job, 258 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: and this is from being in his meeting rooms, is 259 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: constantly looking for improvement every single week. Where can we 260 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: learn from this game, whether it's a win or a loss. 261 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: Where are we going to grow and moving forward from 262 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,199 Speaker 1: this game? And we'll address a number of things. But 263 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: you know, the rush defense they give up over one 264 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,719 Speaker 1: hundred yards Adrian Peterson in the first half, Like that 265 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: needs to that needs to be short up. And you 266 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,599 Speaker 1: have you have Nick Chubb this week, and they have 267 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: all these big names in Cleveland, Odell Beckham, Junior Baker Mayfield, 268 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry, Jarvis Landry and Joku all this talent at 269 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 1: the receiving corps. And you have Nick Chubb coming in 270 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: fourth in the league and rushing over eight hundred yards 271 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: on the season, extremely productive, a big play threat, a 272 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: home run thread similar to which you saw Miles Sandlers. 273 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 1: Miles Sanders for the Eagles can do what sae Quon 274 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:22,319 Speaker 1: Barkley can do. This guy can take it to the 275 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: house on you. So, yes, they will keep evolving. And 276 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 1: like every team in the league, injuries happened, So how 277 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: do you adapt to those injuries? And you just hope 278 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 1: they're not to keep players, but then you adapt injuries. 279 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: You know, Harrison Phillips goes out their best run defender 280 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: up front, he goes out, Well, it's taken a number 281 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: of weeks to adjust from that. It's a little different 282 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: fit from linebackers when maybe a guy's not a stout 283 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: in front of you. That's ever evolving. And now it's 284 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: on the defense. It's on the Bills to shure up 285 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: any weaknesses that creep up week to week. Like you said, 286 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 1: week to week league, it is the Bills to the 287 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: end and of credit and interesting what got me thinking 288 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: about this, Chris, and you're in the Buffalo locker room 289 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: yesterday Micah Hyde was asked about this kind of a 290 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: similar topic, and here's what Mike I'd said about the 291 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 1: victory yesterday over Washington. I think this is interesting. Listen 292 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: to this. I'm done apologizing for ugly wins to win. 293 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 1: We're six and two. This time last year we were 294 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,719 Speaker 1: twin six. No need to apologize, by the way for 295 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: ugly wins, right, And I think that might be the 296 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: message for me for the day, like, yeah, take this win, 297 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: enjoy this win, enjoy the six and two, start knowing 298 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: that you've gotten meaningful football coming up for the second 299 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: half of the season. Here, I'm sure fun. I'm sure 300 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: any NFL player would love to trounce the opponent every week. 301 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: But I think fans have to remember too that this 302 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: team is in a league where seventy five percent of 303 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: the games every week are decided by one score or less. 304 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: Blowouts are rare in this league. They happen in one 305 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: out of every four games. So you look at that 306 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: it's on the surface and you say, okay, it's unlikely. 307 00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: Then taking it a step further, the Bills have in 308 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: a lot of tight games this year, and I think 309 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: that's actually gonna help them when they get to the playoffs, 310 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: because playoff games are even tighter than these regular season 311 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: games that we see each week. So being in these 312 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: tight one score type games I think is a healthy 313 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: thing for this team. It's not ideal because you want 314 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: victory to be assured sooner rather than later in a 315 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: football game. But if there is one underlying benefit, it's 316 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: the fact that you know, come postseason things get even tighter, 317 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 1: and if you have experience in tight games, I think 318 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: that helps you mentally. Yeah, we have a good show 319 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: here today. We got to Eric with us for this hour. 320 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: Chris is here all day. Devin Singletary's gonna join this. 321 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: Coming up here in about fifteen minutes, Bills running back 322 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: Maddi glab with the Maddi Awards for the Buffalo victory yesterday, 323 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: And coming up at two o'clock Laura Open from the 324 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: NFL on Fox. She's been on the sidelines for the 325 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 1: last two Buffalo games. And Dan Orlovski of ESPN's going 326 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: to join us in a two o'clock hour as well 327 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: to talk about the Bills and some of these issues 328 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: and the rest of the NFL. Let's talk about Devin 329 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: Singletary Eric for a moment here. I gave you this 330 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: that I crunched out over the weekend. He in his 331 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: first four games, he missed three with injury. He had 332 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: been in on fifty two percent of the snaps and 333 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: yet only had twenty percent of the carries. Kind of 334 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: totally flipped that yesterday. It was a concerted effort to 335 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: get the ball in his hands, I think, and it 336 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: took a while, but they kind of got what they 337 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: wanted yet. Yeah, Bill's fans had been clamoring for Devin 338 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: Singletary to get more touches early in games, and they 339 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: got it yesterday. He starts the game, he gets a 340 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: number of carries early on, and he was productive. He 341 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: had ninety five yards rushing on the day, almost fifty 342 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: yards receiving, and he had a very productive day. You 343 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: saw what he was able to do through the air 344 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: on the screen game. And to me, he's such a 345 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: balanced player. You know, he's not breakaway speed. When you 346 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: think Devin Singletary, you think, oh, he's this lightning quick, 347 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: lightning fast guy. His combine numbers ran at four to 348 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: six six, Yeah, really unimpressive when you look at running 349 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: back numbers, elite running back numbers from the combine, but 350 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: the way he can make guys miss in such tight spaces, 351 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: I think he went a long way to give him. 352 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: Brian day Ball a lot of confidence to giving him 353 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: the ball off and through a game. Like I mentioned before, 354 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: on his ability and his willingness to just take four 355 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: at times and when the big play is there, take it. 356 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: But you know, I think he's such a dynamic playmaker 357 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: for the Bills, They're gonna have to continue to get 358 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 1: him more and more touches early in the season. Do 359 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 1: you want to throw your rookie right into the fire 360 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: off the bat in those back to back road games 361 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: in New York. You know, Brian day Bell obviously felt 362 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: more confident given Frank or a majority of those carries. 363 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: Then at the end of the Giants game, Devin Singletary 364 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: goes out with the hamstring and they ease him back 365 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: from that to last couple of weeks. Well, now we 366 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: saw yesterday what Devin Singletary can do with a full workload. 367 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: And Devin Singletary is coming from college. He's used to 368 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: only playing eleven or twelve games a year. He also 369 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: had a ton of carries in college, So all those 370 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 1: things considered, they ease him into the season, and in 371 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: Game eight they finally give him the touches that everybody's wanted, 372 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: and he showed up for the Bills in a huge way. Yesterday. 373 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: Chris he and Josh Allen benefited from a pretty solid 374 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: game from the offensive line against a pretty good watching 375 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: run front. Yeah, I think the line blocked well, but 376 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: gonna throw a bone to the receivers too. That might 377 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 1: have been their best blocking game of the season by 378 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: the receivers, and Andre Roberts was on the field a 379 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: good deal. The first two drives was almost exclusively eleven personnel. 380 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: There were only three plays on the first two possessions 381 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: where they were not in eleven personnel. They ran twenty 382 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: one once I think they were in twelve months and 383 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: they ran twenty three personnel when they got down in 384 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: the red zone. That was it on the first two 385 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 1: scoring drives. So there was a concerted effort on the 386 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: part of the receivers. They knew they were going to 387 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: have to block in that game, at least at the outset. 388 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: And Andre Roberts was that third receiver who was on 389 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: the field more often than not, and I think it's 390 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: because he's one of the best blocking receivers on the roster, 391 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 1: and he delivered. And John Brown, you know, he's not 392 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: going to be digging people out of the dirt, you know, 393 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: and dropping them on their back, but he was getting 394 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: in the way, so he did a good job. And 395 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: then even Beasley was just cutting people, just getting low 396 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: on guys to just impede their progress to get to 397 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: the football. So, you know, you got to tip your 398 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: hat to those receivers because I think that was something 399 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 1: that was sorely lacking in the Bills run game last season. 400 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: They just did not have people that could block consistently downfield. 401 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: They missed guys like Robert Woods no longer being on 402 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 1: the roster, and it was evident in the run game 403 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: last year. You know, this time around, it's a lot. 404 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 1: It's an encouraging sign to see its surface now because 405 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 1: I think going forward, it's something that they continually can 406 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 1: turn to and be productive, as evidenced by some of 407 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: that first down yard. As I was telling you about Eric, 408 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: I want to talk about some of the things that 409 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: went well for the offense, and we've talked about it 410 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: on this show. You don't have talked about it on Sundays. 411 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: The self inflicted wounds. Offensively, they may be disappearing here 412 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 1: right now. The Bills have played the last four games 413 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: with a total of two turnovers, just two penalties assessed 414 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: against the Bills yesterday. Those were the big self inflicted 415 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: wounds which didn't occur yesterday, right, Yeah, absolutely, And when 416 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,719 Speaker 1: you're an offense and you're not making these huge plays, 417 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: you know, we've mentioned that nausea, nausea that the Bills 418 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: have not completed that has traveled over twenty yards in 419 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: the air, and you know they're they're not putting the 420 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: you know, they're entered yesterday's game at twenty fourth in 421 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: the league and scoring offense. When you're when you're not 422 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: producing at a crazy high level, you simply cannot turn 423 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: the ball over. You can't put your defense in bad positions. 424 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 1: You need to be more in game management mode, make 425 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: smart decisions. The last couple weeks they've done that. The 426 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: thing that that was just driving me nuts up until 427 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: yesterday's game was the penalties, especially the pre snap penalties. 428 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: I actually talked to coach McDermott about this before the 429 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: game yesterday. Penalties that have happened between the whistles, those 430 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: happen Yeah, he's never gonna tell a guy don't be 431 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 1: aggressive out there, don't effort penalties, right, don't you go 432 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 1: try and make don't go try and make a play. 433 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,239 Speaker 1: You know, Lee Smith has a holding call last week 434 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: where he simply dominates a guy. You know, maybe in 435 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: today's NFL you you keep that guy on his feet 436 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: because as the ball carrier goes by him, if a 437 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: guy goes to the ground, nowadays, a lot of times 438 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 1: the refer just throwing the flags regardless. So maybe you 439 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: teach guys, now hey, if you're if you're about to 440 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: put a guy down, maybe hold him up. And it's 441 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: so counterintuitive from a tight end or a defensive linement 442 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,239 Speaker 1: because I mean, from an early age you're taught put 443 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: people on their backs. Well, nowadays you put a guy 444 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: in their back. It's likely a holding calls. The same 445 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,959 Speaker 1: thing for defensive ends with the quarterback. Yeah, like Jerry yesterday, 446 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 1: at the end of that play, he's got he's got 447 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: he's got Askins in a bear hug, and you could 448 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:17,360 Speaker 1: tell he kind of wanted to drop him on the ground, 449 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: but then he's like, well, I better not do that 450 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 1: because then my body waits on top of him. And 451 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get flags. I'm just gonna hang on and 452 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: wait for a whistle. And the whistle took a long 453 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: time before it got blown. Yeah. Yeah, we'll talk about 454 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: some of the shortcomings yesterday, and there were some, but 455 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 1: I just wanted to start the show by pointing out 456 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 1: some of the things that went well. And things went 457 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: well yesterday in Buffalo six win of the season. So 458 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 1: again our Twitter poll, our question today is do the 459 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: Bills get enough credit for their six? And to start 460 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: what do you think? Let's take a couple of phone 461 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: calls here, David Ian Buffalo on the line with us. Hello, David, 462 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: go ahead, Hey, how are you guys doing okay? Real? Hello? Yeah? 463 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: You got for us? Okay? Yeah, how you guys doing good? 464 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 1: At a big shout out to the Buffalo Bills. How 465 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 1: about them Bills? And then be guarantee what we say 466 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: about the schedule. My only thing about that schedule was 467 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 1: this here, wife, is a certain team don't seem like 468 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: they can get beaten, especially annoy England Patriots. You should 469 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: have seen how all that bands was over here crying 470 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: yesterday with a little cookout that we had. I said, 471 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: expect that any team can lose, but they don't want 472 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: to accept it. But when it comes to us, they 473 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:24,919 Speaker 1: want to say, oh, we'll look at the Bills. Did 474 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: the Bills did? All the Bills got to worry about 475 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: is one thing that themselves and their fans, and they're 476 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 1: gonna be all right, all right, David. Let's take a 477 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: call here from JM in Utah. Hello, Jam, you're in 478 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: the air. Hey, how's it going? Guys? You're taking them 479 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: call um? So I wanted to answer the Twitter poll 480 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: just say that I don't think the Bills get enough 481 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: credit for serve their potentials of football teams. So I 482 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 1: think my favorite thing about the six and two starters 483 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: that we still haven't put together like a full game yet. 484 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: You know, our offense will flash, and we have a 485 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 1: lot of really good players that can make dynamic plays, 486 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: and we see that sometimes, but other times we just 487 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,159 Speaker 1: look like we're asleep. Our defense adjusted really well in 488 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: the second half to shore up the run, but in 489 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: the first half they got dashed. And so you know, 490 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: we still haven't put together like a full game. We're 491 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 1: still like learning how to put the pieces together. And 492 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 1: I think that we have a lot of pieces that 493 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: are dynamic as you know, football players, and I don't 494 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: think we get enough credit for that because we're six 495 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: and two having not put together a full game. What's 496 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: it going to look like in a month and a 497 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: half exactly? And that's my point, Eric, and you've talked 498 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 1: about being six and two with all the faults they have, 499 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 1: and again my point is things changed, sometimes dramatically during 500 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: the course of the season. The Buffalo Bills you saw 501 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,400 Speaker 1: September eighth a little bit different than yesterday's Buffalo Bills 502 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 1: and probably different than the Bills six weeks from now, 503 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: I would think absolutely. In the first Hauler mentioned you 504 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 1: know how arrogant New England fans have been, Hey, we're 505 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 1: gonna go sixteen to zero. And then they run into 506 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens last night, and maybe the Ravens showed 507 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 1: the blueprint of how you beat the Patriots this year. 508 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: You have to run the football, maybe the mobile quarterback, 509 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: that extra guy on the field that you have to 510 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: defend through the run game, you know, you get the 511 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: extra blocker, you get the extra defender being taken out 512 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 1: by the running back. And now all of a sudden, 513 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson is making plays with his legs and the 514 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: Baltimore's defense was opportunitistic score. You know, it's a week 515 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: to week league, like we said, and we can keep 516 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 1: going back to that. But every week teams change, injuries happen, 517 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: and you never know, but enjoy the six and two starts. 518 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: That's fine. Enjoy it. And as a team, you just 519 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 1: hope and you have faith in this coaching staff in 520 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: the front office that it's just constant improvement that they're 521 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: striving for. We can a week out call here from 522 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: Sam and Springville. Go ahead, Sam, Welcome to the show. Hey, 523 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: what's up guys. Hey, I call him last Monday, and 524 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: you guys jumped all of me for criticizing Dable, so 525 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: Bo's play calling your stuff. But I want to give 526 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 1: credit where credits due. Like yesterday's game, outside of that 527 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: one red zone possession, I felt like was perfect exactly 528 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: what this team should be, which red zone possession, because 529 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: I wanted to dive into that. A little cute there 530 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: with dam McKenzie and stuff kind of got away from 531 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: the stuff that was working there. Um, I you know, 532 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,360 Speaker 1: it is what it is. Hey. You know, if that's 533 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 1: just one red zone possession a game, that's fine. But 534 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: I think now they see you can run this offense 535 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 1: through your backs. Thirty one krees yesterday, I believe is 536 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: what it was for your running backs. I don't think 537 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: Josh Allen should be your you know what, you run 538 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: everything through. That's gonna help him, it's gonna help your defense. 539 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 1: I'm really excited with what I saw yesterday because I 540 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 1: think that's going to open up all these things that 541 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: everybody's saying in our shortcom is the deep ball, you know, 542 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 1: the defense, you know, playing these close games, run the clock, 543 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 1: keep the other opposing team off the field. Again, I 544 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: you know, you guys jumped on me last week, but 545 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: I want to give credit or credits due. I felt 546 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 1: like Davil did a fantastic job yesterday calling plays and 547 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 1: getting those guys in positions to be successful. Thanks Sam. 548 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 1: You know, Chris, I believe there's too much emphasis on 549 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: play calling, and especially when it comes out like last 550 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: week after a loss. I think even after a win yesterday. Look, 551 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: they were good plays called, not all of them, but 552 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 1: good plays called. But the execution of the place is 553 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: what produces you to win. Yes, I think win or lose. Yes, No, 554 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: I agree with that, And yeah, execution was a major 555 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: issue in the game the week before against the Eagles 556 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball, quite frankly, and it 557 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: was an issue yesterday in the first half for the defense. 558 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 1: It was an issue guys were not staying in their gaps. 559 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 1: They were getting over aggressive. They were coming out of 560 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: their gaps. And a veteran back like Adrian Peterson is 561 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 1: going to push it, push it, push it, and then 562 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 1: kill you backside or we'd ever backside gaps sitting there, 563 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: He'll take it. And they were giving it to him. 564 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: And you know, that guy might be thirty three years 565 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 1: old and playing on a high ankle sprain, but he 566 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: can still jump up with the best of them. And 567 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: you know he's not going down on an arm tackle either. Eric, 568 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 1: what did you see What was the if any adjustment 569 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,440 Speaker 1: the Buffalo defense made with Adrian Peterson second half? He 570 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 1: had seven yards. They just staying their gaps. Bet, Yeah, Yeah, 571 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: I was gonna say they stay in their gaps better. 572 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 1: They ran a couple of timely pressures, a couple of 573 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 1: safety blitzes off the edge that you know, put some 574 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: pressure on him. Yeah, to stick it up inside really 575 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 1: fast as opposed to stretch, stretch, stretch, make the cut. 576 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: Like you just said, sometimes that safety pressure makes him 577 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: hit it up the middle. Guys know that, so then 578 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,919 Speaker 1: you're more discipline in your gap because you know he's 579 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: going to be funneled back into you in some of 580 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 1: the zone schemes they were running in the first half, 581 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: So they ran a commodation in the first half of 582 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 1: zone runs and they ran what we called duo. It's 583 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 1: the old Pittsburgh Steelers. It's basically power without a pooler, 584 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: so you have just double teams across fit up to 585 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: the linebackers. And also I thought it was interesting Washington 586 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: lines up in the exact same formation and runs the 587 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 1: exact same play that the Eagles split back. Yeah, split 588 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 1: tailbacks in the backfield with one of the running backs 589 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: being a lead blocker up the middle, the one that 590 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 1: they got Milano on up the middle when he was 591 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: caught off guard by Jordan Howard. And then the first 592 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 1: time they ran it this week they get a plus 593 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: ten run yard or plus ten yard gain on that 594 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: as well. But that's how they were attacking the Bills 595 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: in the first half. Second half very similar way. The Bills, 596 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: like we mentioned, staying their gas better, few safety pressures 597 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: in the corners. I thought in the second half did 598 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: a great job of bottling up Adrian Peterson. And a 599 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: lot of times when you have a guy that's that 600 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 1: tough to bring down, it's it's getting him before he 601 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: gets his feet going, before he gets a head of steam. 602 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: And they were able to do that in the second half. Yeah, 603 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: you gotta even if you gotta be jeff Van Gundy 604 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: on Alonzo Morning, just hang on until help catch because 605 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: he's a big dude man. Yeah, I mean six three two, 606 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: he's a freak. Yeah, I mean, he's just ridiculous. And 607 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: you look at like Levi Wallace is not a small man, 608 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: but he's going to great. You know, he's going to 609 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: try to tackle him up high. I'm like, Levi, what 610 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: are you doing? And you got him around the waist 611 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: to just hang on for dear life and wait for him. 612 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: A flat footed Adrian Peterson just throws him to the ground. 613 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: And that was a play. So that's the duo A 614 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: double teams just try and find a gap. Well, the 615 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: Bills defense on that play did a great job of 616 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: filling every single gap. The way the running backs will 617 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: read that play is a gap between the center and 618 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: right guard, A gap, B, gap C gap D gap 619 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: to backside A. They bottled everything up. So Adrian Peterson 620 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: simply just bounces outside to the unblocked defender and he 621 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: makes twelve yards there himself. Period. YEA, Hey, we got 622 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: a lot more to talk about, including some of the 623 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: other issues yesterday, the short yardage problems the caller mentioned 624 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: the first series. There was another one later that wound 625 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: up not working out great with a couple of runs 626 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: and a fourth on run. Finally, but there are more 627 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: issues to talk about, more good things to talk about. 628 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: Two and one of the top players yesterday, Devin Singletary 629 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 1: the Motor, is going to join us here in a 630 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: moment to talk about his role and yesterday's win over Washington. 631 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: Come on back, we're just getting started.

Happy to have rookie running back Devin Singletary here, 644 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: Thanks coming by. All right, So, Devin, I was talking 645 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: to these guys about this in the last segment. You know, 646 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: we always hear about running backs getting into a rhythm, 647 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: how they want to get into a rhythm early. Your 648 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: guy's first down rush success yesterday between you and Frank 649 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: first down runs eight carries fifty two yards. I mean 650 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 1: it's almost six and a half a pop. Did you 651 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 1: guys kind of feel like you got into an early 652 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: rhythm in terms of the film, I would say so. Um, 653 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: Like I think I told a few guys yesterday when 654 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,479 Speaker 1: I was being interviewed, Um, you know, the guys up 655 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: front early on, we definitely were getting a lot of push, 656 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 1: So it definitely made our jobs easier, you know, and 657 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: I definitely feel that was a big part of you know, 658 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: of us, you know, getting them six and seven yards 659 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: in there. I thought all season you've done a great job, 660 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: and you just mentioned the guys up front, which is 661 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: a former offensive linement. I was where the bread is better, 662 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: and I'll stay on the topic of them. You've done 663 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 1: a great job in space of setting up your blockers, 664 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: which takes a lot of patience and oftentimes young running 665 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: backs aren't confident enough to put the brakes on a 666 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: little bit. Let your guys get out in front. Is 667 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: that something you've developed in the National Football League or 668 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 1: is that something that you you you had through college. Um, 669 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: I kind of will say I had it since high school. 670 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: I learned to do it in high school. I had 671 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: a coach tell me, you know, nothing's gonna happen until 672 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 1: that that putting guard or you're putting a lineman makes 673 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: typ with that linebacker order safety. So you know, you 674 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: you really dictating, you know, the defensive players. So I 675 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: would say since high school. Definitely one player to ask 676 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 1: you about in particular, And it came in the first 677 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: quarter about five and a half intes stuft the screen patch. 678 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: It went for forty nine yards. You got great blocks, 679 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: but there was there was like pre snap motion. I 680 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: think that affected the way that play went right, wasn't there? Yeah? 681 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: I think I think we had a like an motion 682 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: come across from like the slot of something. So um, 683 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: they was giving that to him all day, so you know, 684 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 1: kind of messed with their eyes or whatnot. And h 685 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: like you said, once I got the ball, I had 686 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: a wall in front of me, so all I had 687 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 1: to do was run. We were talking about that player 688 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: said one of you two about just his vision on 689 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: that after the Yeah, there was Eric talking about it. Yeah, 690 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: just seeing seeing color. I don't know if you just 691 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 1: see color and just avoid it, or if you see 692 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 1: a guy coming and you know he's leaning one way 693 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: and you can just set him up and just stick 694 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 1: your foot in the ground. I know you should. He 695 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: shook a guy's flat out of his shoes on the 696 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: left side. He came running around in the left corner there, 697 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 1: Murph and he, I mean, he just shook that safety 698 00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:59,959 Speaker 1: and the guy just he was a frozen pizza out there, 699 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: and he just ran right by him. But the thing 700 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you, Devin, is you know we 701 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: we've seen and been witnessed to some of your receiving 702 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: prowess out of the backfield and it just begs the question. 703 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: And I'm not asking you to bag on your college 704 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: head coach here, but has Lane Kiffin texted you yet 705 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 1: and said I should have thrown you the ball more 706 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: in college. Not yet? Why did he not throw you 707 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: the ball in college? Maybe maybe because he No, we 708 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: didn't really have to. You know, the running game was 709 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 1: always it was that success. The run game was that success. 710 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: They didn't even need to do. Yeah. That I think 711 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: that played a big part in Okay, So all right, 712 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: I'll give him a pass out of I mean I 713 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: would have after what we've seen the first eight games, 714 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: I would have done it more. For sure. Your eight 715 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 1: games into your rookie year pretty much twelve if you 716 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: count the preseason. That's that's a normal college season right there. 717 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: How you feeling at this point of the year, you know, 718 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,719 Speaker 1: maybe the hamstring injury ends up being a little bit 719 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: of a blessing in discuss because you get to sit 720 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 1: back and watch and let your body heal up. And 721 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: and are you looking forward to a really strong and 722 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,719 Speaker 1: uh second half of the season. Um? Of course and um, 723 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: and like you said, the injury, UM, I believe that 724 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 1: you know that was a blessing in disguise, you know, 725 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: just you know, rookie season, it's NonStop work, work, work. Um. 726 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 1: During that time, I was able to get rest, get 727 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:16,800 Speaker 1: back you know, if I had any other thing that 728 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: was nagging, you know what I'm saying, able to get 729 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: back to a one hundred percent. So, Um, definitely definitely 730 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: feeling good going you know into the second half of 731 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 1: the season. Good. It definitely had twenty carriage yesterday, four 732 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 1: targets in the past game. Did you know going into 733 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,360 Speaker 1: that game that you would be featured to that extended 734 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,439 Speaker 1: especially based on where you've been in the previous couple 735 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: of weeks? All right, Um, I didn't know. Um. I 736 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: just approached it like I approach every week. You know, 737 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: just come in, be ready, you know, um, and whenever 738 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:42,839 Speaker 1: you know your number is called, be ready to make 739 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 1: a play. And then on the touchdown. You know, at 740 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 1: the end of the game, there it looked like getting 741 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: the edge was relatively easy. Was there just a good 742 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 1: seal there on the left side or what did you 743 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 1: see as you so, um it was it was like 744 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 1: an RPO. Konda and Josh, me and Josh Josh kind 745 00:34:58,040 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: of rode it longer than you know, the freeze that 746 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,799 Speaker 1: defense and then once I got it, Um, I kind 747 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 1: of seen the safety coming down and I kind of 748 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 1: waited a little bit get up to him. Yeah, you know, 749 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,399 Speaker 1: I'm all I had to do his run. And I've 750 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 1: always wondered about that quarterback running back relationship on you know, 751 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: those options, like it's a feel thing where you really 752 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 1: gotta know, like am I getting this or not? So 753 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: how do you know? Is there like a cutoff time 754 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,080 Speaker 1: where I'm clamping down on the ball just give it 755 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,879 Speaker 1: to me? Or how does that? What's the relationship there 756 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,399 Speaker 1: and how does that work? So basically I've been doing 757 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 1: that since high school. So you you don't want to 758 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 1: just as a running back, you don't want to take it, 759 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: but you want to have a good enough grip. Boy, 760 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: you know, if he hands it, you know you can 761 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: handle it. But if he wants to take it, you 762 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 1: know you're not stopping him from taking it. I feel 763 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: like that's the best way to explain it. Yeah, it 764 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: just seems like, I mean, to the layman and for 765 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 1: someone like me who's never done it, it seems like 766 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: a very delicate balance in the you know, as a 767 00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: play is literally unfolding and we know how fast plays 768 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 1: happened in the NFL and if somebody's got penetration and 769 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: it makes it even harder. I was just kind of 770 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 1: curious as to how you play that because it looks 771 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 1: like an easy play, but it's it's it's a delicate balance, right, No, 772 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 1: it definitely is. You just kind of gotta get a 773 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,800 Speaker 1: feel for it and get reps at it, kind of 774 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 1: get a feel for each other. That makes it easier too. Yeah, 775 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:23,359 Speaker 1: that was a great crash, great question, Chris um talk 776 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,720 Speaker 1: about yesterday. So you're on the field with two guys 777 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 1: in Adrian Peterson and Frank Gore, both over thirteen hundred 778 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 1: and fifty yards or thirteen thousand, five hundred yards in 779 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: their career, first time ever for a game like that, 780 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 1: and you steal the show. But but talk but talk 781 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 1: about you know, growing up. I'm assuming you're probably a 782 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 1: fan about those guys. Yes, definitely on you know, uh, 783 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,399 Speaker 1: just going in, I'm you know, I'm looking at the game. 784 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,879 Speaker 1: Of course, I already know about Frank, you know, I'm 785 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: with Frank every day. But um, I was definitely excited, 786 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 1: you know, to be on the same field as ap 787 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 1: to watch them run because I watched them go crazy 788 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 1: plenty of times. And back in Minnesota. You know what 789 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 1: I'm so, um, I was. I was just ready to, 790 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 1: you know, kind of be a fan almost just to 791 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 1: see him, see how he works, you know, up close 792 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,759 Speaker 1: and personal. And I was impressed, you know, you know, 793 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 1: to be that. You know, he's been in the league 794 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: for what how many years? Yeah? So, and he was 795 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,439 Speaker 1: still getting in and out of cut. So I'm just like, damn, 796 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It was definitely an honor 797 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 1: to meet him out of the game and I get 798 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 1: to talk to him. Um, you know, he just came 799 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: up to me. He was like, man, man, you got talent. 800 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:27,479 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. You got what it takes. 801 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 1: I can definitely see that. You know. Just keep working, 802 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and keep God first. And 803 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 1: I told him I was trying to ball like him. 804 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:35,239 Speaker 1: He was like, you got it, man, you know what 805 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 1: I'm saying. So basically, just keep doing what you're doing 806 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 1: and you get like almost I would imagine on a 807 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:44,320 Speaker 1: daily basis from Frank Bart what do you get? I 808 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: get it. I get it all just on the fielding 809 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:48,719 Speaker 1: off the field, you know, just how to how to 810 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:50,880 Speaker 1: go about your business, you know, how to take care 811 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,399 Speaker 1: of your body, just everything I see what he see 812 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 1: because because he's you know, he's talking to me through 813 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 1: different plays, you know, telling me what he sees. So 814 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:00,800 Speaker 1: I'm getting top of the line right, and the coaches 815 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: say that He'll go to them too in between series 816 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 1: and say, I think these runs might be more effective 817 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 1: based on how I see things setting up and how 818 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 1: you know that D line or that front might be 819 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 1: cheating a little bit here, maybe we can hit him 820 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 1: this way. Is that something you've ever been exposed to 821 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 1: where where a running back has that kind of input 822 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 1: in the course of a game to talk to the 823 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 1: coaches and say, hey, maybe we should do this or 824 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 1: I think this could really work. I know coach Dabele's 825 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 1: big about having an open door policy and taking input 826 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: from the players, but how often do you see that 827 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 1: kind of input from him player? You might see it 828 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: every now and damn, but but for the coach to actually, 829 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: you know, listen or you know, you know, you know 830 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 1: what I'm saying taken in You know that that speaks volumes, 831 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,799 Speaker 1: you know, and how much respect they have for Frank 832 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 1: and how much he knows the game, you know, so 833 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:53,439 Speaker 1: that's definitely big and I don't see that often. Thanked 834 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 1: for this. Congratulations again the Motor Devon single to rejoining us, 835 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,760 Speaker 1: Christen and Eric and are coming back. More one Bills 836 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:17,839 Speaker 1: Live presented by Kalidah Health on Buffalo Bill's Radio. Back 837 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 1: one Bills Live, John Murphy, Chris Brown, Eric what is 838 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 1: weather store? A couple more minutes. I want to ask 839 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,720 Speaker 1: something that Eric, and it came about, you know, motor 840 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 1: s Deevin Sinconstary sitting here talking about his forty nine 841 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 1: yards screen past again and I believe it was Isaiah 842 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 1: McKenzie with the jet sweep action to the left side 843 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 1: that really took defenders to that side. But that's like 844 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: a Yesterday especially, was a fundamental part of what they 845 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 1: were doing. Yeah, I'm not sure how many plays in 846 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 1: a row they did it, but I want to say 847 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 1: seven or eight plays in a row had a jet 848 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 1: sweep action attached to it, and Brian bay Ball made 849 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 1: it a huge emphasis yesterday. A week before I thought 850 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,759 Speaker 1: I thought the Bills should have had Isaiah McKenzie up 851 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 1: two weeks ago, they left him down and put up 852 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 1: Robert Foster instead and Duke Williams. But in a windy 853 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 1: game in Orchard Park. That jet sweep action, the way 854 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 1: it makes the defense stretch loudly to make the way 855 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: it makes the linebackers not be able to just simply 856 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 1: play downhill fast. The way it forces the defensive ends 857 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: and stay wide at times can be extremely valuable to 858 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 1: an offense. And maybe against the Eagles, with the wide 859 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 1: nines of Jim Schwartz's defense, maybe they thought, look, you 860 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 1: can't run jet sweeps against Eagles because the defensive ends 861 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 1: are running up the field every play the way Jim 862 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: Schwartz teaches. He says, I want you to play the 863 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: run on the way to the quarterback. So you're simply 864 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 1: rushing the passer every play as a wide nine defensive 865 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: end and you're playing the run on the way to 866 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,879 Speaker 1: the quarterback. Yet sweep can go right into the teeth 867 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, So unless you devote a blocker out there, 868 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 1: which generally you will leave that guy in blocks because 869 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 1: you can generally go right around him, then they wouldn't 870 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 1: be effective. So so I get that against the Eagles, 871 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 1: but I think they were That's an element they were 872 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:55,319 Speaker 1: missing against the Eagles yesterday, that action, and they were 873 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: able to hit it for maybe eleven or twelve yards 874 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 1: the first time they ran it yesterday for the rest 875 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 1: of the game, now the Redskins have to honor it. Yea. 876 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 1: The linebackers have to take a step flowing that way 877 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:06,239 Speaker 1: or us they're simply going to get smoked to the 878 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 1: edge by McKenzie. And what that does is when those 879 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 1: linebackers are then flat footed, guys like Frank Gore and 880 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 1: Devin Singletary are gonna have a field day. And the 881 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:19,280 Speaker 1: most important thing is there is evidence of the effectiveness 882 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,879 Speaker 1: of that with McKenzie on tape. You know, you've got 883 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,560 Speaker 1: these teams coming in looking at the last four games. 884 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 1: They see his big run at the end of the 885 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 1: game against the Titans that effectively put that game away, 886 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: that was on the same kind of play, and they're like, uh, 887 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 1: we we can't you know, we can't cheat if we 888 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 1: got this guy on the field and it stretches that 889 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 1: defense horizontally and then sets up plays that you can 890 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 1: turn to later in the game where he's got the 891 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,880 Speaker 1: same motion. He ain't getting the ball, but that stretches 892 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 1: them horizontally, and now you've got a scene to exploit, right, 893 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 1: And one more thing on the jet sweep. Not to 894 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 1: labor this too much, but a new wrinkle from the 895 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 1: jet sweep yesterday. So generally you'll run the jet sweep 896 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 1: motion away from where you're run the ball. You're pulling 897 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 1: the defenders away from it. Okay. So as soon as 898 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 1: the defenders for the Redskins started saying okay, every time 899 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: they're doing the jet sweep, if it's not timed up perfectly, 900 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 1: we don't have to honor it because we know he's 901 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 1: past him. So then yesterday, what Brian day Ball does. 902 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:17,000 Speaker 1: He runs jet sweep towards the play and runs outside zone. 903 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,279 Speaker 1: And now Isaiah McKenzie is your fullback, lead blocker. And 904 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,800 Speaker 1: Isaiah McKenzie's a tough dude. Now, a little stout receiver. 905 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:25,440 Speaker 1: He could get in the web. I saw him cut 906 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: a corner. Yes, So now he's your lead blocker. And 907 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,279 Speaker 1: that's the little stuff. When people are hypercritical of Brian 908 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 1: day Ball, those are the little things that I love 909 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: to point out because he does a lot of things 910 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 1: and you hear it all the times of football. It's 911 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 1: not about the coaching, it's not about the exit and those, 912 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: It's about the Jimmy's and Joes or however, you want 913 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: to say it's about the players on the field making plays, 914 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 1: but it's little wrinkles like that that could put you 915 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 1: in an advantageous position, and those are in game adjustments. 916 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,960 Speaker 1: Very often. With him, that happened, and he said that 917 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 1: when he got hired. He said, well, adjustments aren't just 918 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:00,800 Speaker 1: made at halftime. He goes, you make those throughout the 919 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 1: course of the game. You're making them after the first series, 920 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 1: And I think that was something that was that was 921 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 1: missing in a lot of the you know, um portfolios 922 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,840 Speaker 1: of previous offensive chords runers. I don't think there was 923 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,879 Speaker 1: enough of that here in previous years. So it's it's 924 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 1: a welcome sight to see, Hey, Chris, before we cut 925 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: Eric lues He's got a plenty catch. But I want 926 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 1: to talk about the goal line sequence the first one, 927 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: first quarter, first and gold two. There was a sack, 928 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,279 Speaker 1: There was a couple of rough plays there, m and 929 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,239 Speaker 1: even the goal line sequence h later on, you know, 930 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: when they finally did score on what the fourth down 931 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 1: run but things and there was another shortcut. Yeah, I'm 932 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,920 Speaker 1: all together somehow. Well, the first one for me, Josh 933 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,399 Speaker 1: held onto the ball too long on first down, takes 934 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,759 Speaker 1: a sack, loss a six second play. They sniffed out 935 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 1: the jet sweep. You know, as good as it was, 936 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:53,760 Speaker 1: they sniffed it out, loss of eight. Then a sack again. 937 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,760 Speaker 1: I mean in the red zone, you can't be taken 938 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 1: sacks like that. You just throw it away live for 939 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 1: another play. And I think that's an example of where 940 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 1: Josh's competitive fire sometimes gets the best of him and 941 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 1: it results in a loss for the team, and down 942 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,840 Speaker 1: there you just can't have it. So I think discretion 943 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:15,800 Speaker 1: is the better part of valor down there. Throw it 944 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: away at least save your down in distance so it's 945 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 1: an easier field goal. Now. Fortunately, how she could pick 946 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 1: him up and hit the forty two yard or But 947 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: you can't have those decisions, especially two in the same series. 948 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 1: You gotta get rid of that ball and not take 949 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,400 Speaker 1: fourteen yards and losses on a pair of sacks that 950 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,960 Speaker 1: really hurt them there and then flipping it around to 951 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:38,879 Speaker 1: the goal line stand. I think this is where as 952 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator after two plays like that, where you're 953 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 1: getting nothing either a change the personnel grouping or b 954 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,800 Speaker 1: change the play like there are certain times where you 955 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,359 Speaker 1: got to wave the white flag and say you guys 956 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 1: got us on that I'm gonna try something different, And 957 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say this. I'm not an X and 958 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 1: OS X by any means, but I remember when Shan 959 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:05,560 Speaker 1: Galey used to run the four by one set an 960 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,360 Speaker 1: awful lot and C. J. Spiller average six yards of 961 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 1: carry the season, that the four by one set was 962 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,160 Speaker 1: the most most prevalent set in that offense. And I 963 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 1: know you ran that, so you're familiar with it. To me, 964 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 1: Josh Allen and his athleticism and Devin Singletary and his elusiveness, 965 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:26,279 Speaker 1: to me, screams that at least some of the time, 966 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 1: spread them out down at the goal line, put four 967 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:33,320 Speaker 1: receivers out, have Josh in the backfield with Devin, and 968 00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:37,839 Speaker 1: then run that RPO stuff and get what you got 969 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 1: on the last touchdown of the game when you got 970 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,400 Speaker 1: defensive ends guessing, not knowing what's coming at them, and 971 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 1: they have to respect Josh because of the athlete he is. 972 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 1: And there seems all over the field because you got 973 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: four receivers taken defensive backs out of the set, now 974 00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:53,919 Speaker 1: you've got six. You got six players in the box, 975 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 1: maybe seven instead of nine or ten. Yeah, Eric, your 976 00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:59,719 Speaker 1: take on the second quarter of sequence and it was. 977 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:01,839 Speaker 1: It was less than a yard. It was a foot 978 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:04,399 Speaker 1: and a half maybe, and three straight Frank Gore runs. 979 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 1: They finally did score. By the way. Yeah, when they 980 00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:08,160 Speaker 1: got down to the half yard line, I predicted on 981 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,240 Speaker 1: the broadcast. I thought they would go with the sneak 982 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 1: on first down. They end up doing it on fourth down. 983 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 1: I thought Josh Allen could have simply taken the snap 984 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,719 Speaker 1: and reached over the line like we've seen him do 985 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:20,520 Speaker 1: this season already. The Bills ran the same exact play 986 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 1: three plays in a row, with the exact same motion. 987 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,400 Speaker 1: They ran it on first down and they got stuffed. 988 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:29,200 Speaker 1: Now that over their left side behind Dean Dawkins with 989 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:30,759 Speaker 1: Quentin Spain, they had a lot of confidence that they 990 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:32,040 Speaker 1: were going to get a half yard to push and 991 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:33,879 Speaker 1: Frank Gore would simply be able to run up their back. 992 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,920 Speaker 1: And we saw the left side of the offensive line. 993 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: We saw it against the Jets in Week one, and 994 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,400 Speaker 1: I believe in Week two against the Giants on the 995 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,719 Speaker 1: goal line, Frank Gore get an easy run in off 996 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,319 Speaker 1: the left side. Brian dayball goes back to the well. 997 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,879 Speaker 1: Second down, exact same motion, exact same play, Third down, 998 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 1: exact same motion exact same play. In my mind, I 999 00:46:56,320 --> 00:47:00,319 Speaker 1: kept waiting for there to be something coming, something else 1000 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 1: coming off of it, all play action or some type 1001 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 1: of counter something with that motion, and it never came. Now, 1002 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 1: that may have maybe Brian day Balls thinking there's no 1003 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 1: way they think we run the same play three times 1004 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 1: in a row, But in my mind, he was challenging 1005 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:15,959 Speaker 1: the offensive line. And the Redskins are stout up front. 1006 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 1: You know, Pain pain Ionitis and Jonathan Allen. I mean, 1007 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:23,479 Speaker 1: two of the three of those first round draft picks 1008 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: studs up front, they are they're stout. I mean, I'll 1009 00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:29,800 Speaker 1: give them credit where it's due. But the Bill's offensive 1010 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:33,279 Speaker 1: line it one. It's I get it. I've played offensive line. 1011 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: It's tough to move guys on the goal line. But 1012 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:37,920 Speaker 1: Brian day Ball challenged them. They couldn't get it in. 1013 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:40,839 Speaker 1: And this is kind of becoming a theme of stuff. 1014 00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 1: I'm saying. It's great that we can sit here and say, oh, 1015 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 1: we need to improve goal line rush offense after they 1016 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:50,399 Speaker 1: got it in after another Buffalo win. Best thing about 1017 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 1: the yesterday's win for your mine, Eric again with an 1018 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,239 Speaker 1: eye on the second half of the season. For me, 1019 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 1: the way they started the game. Offensively, they really only 1020 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: get three drives in the first half, and all three 1021 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 1: drives come away with points. After a week where they 1022 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 1: struggled so much against Philadelphia and it was so windy 1023 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,400 Speaker 1: again in Orchard Park, for them to be so methodical 1024 00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 1: in their drives. I loved the offensive how multiple they 1025 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 1: were offensively, jet sweeps, screens, play action, run game, more, 1026 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,360 Speaker 1: Devin Singletary, mixing in Frank Gore, you know, spreading the 1027 00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 1: ball around the field. I thought how multiple they were 1028 00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:30,320 Speaker 1: on offense in the first half, and how on a 1029 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,000 Speaker 1: day where the clock was just grinding out in the 1030 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 1: first half, extremely fast first half. Like I said, three 1031 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:38,640 Speaker 1: possessions in a kneel down, they score on all three possessions. 1032 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:42,360 Speaker 1: That is progress And probably probably the best thing that 1033 00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 1: came from yesterday is never, at any point at the 1034 00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,359 Speaker 1: end the game yesterday did I feel like the Bills 1035 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,719 Speaker 1: are gonna lose. I felt like from the opening jump 1036 00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,759 Speaker 1: they forced a three. Before they get them, Washington gets 1037 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 1: a first down called back on penalty, they hold them 1038 00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,279 Speaker 1: to a three and out the Bills score. Honestly, from 1039 00:48:57,320 --> 00:49:00,200 Speaker 1: that point, I never felt like the Bills lead was 1040 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 1: ever threatened. When when you're playing a team that didn't 1041 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 1: score a touchdown. Coming into the game in nine quarters, 1042 00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:08,279 Speaker 1: you feel pretty good and they're still waiting. They're still 1043 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 1: waiting after this game. That's crazy. Safe trip home. Thanks 1044 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 1: for this. We'll talk to you on Sunday in Cleveland.

Hey, Um, 1102 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:14,840 Speaker 1: the Bills with the way, we want to know what 1103 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:16,400 Speaker 1: to think about it and what you think are the 1104 00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:19,359 Speaker 1: Bills getting enough credit with their six and two record? 1105 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:21,000 Speaker 1: Give us a call to discuss. We'll read some of 1106 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,279 Speaker 1: the tweets. Two of the number to call eight three 1107 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:27,960 Speaker 1: fifty toll free one eight eight fifty. You uh, you 1108 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:30,480 Speaker 1: asked Eric the biggest thing he took out of the game, 1109 00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 1: and I know you asked him that because he was leaving. 1110 00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:35,040 Speaker 1: You want to know what I think? I don't really care, Yes, 1111 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:38,279 Speaker 1: of course I think, Yeah, here's the biggest thing that 1112 00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:43,239 Speaker 1: I took out of the game. Devin Singletary should be 1113 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:48,360 Speaker 1: a foundational piece of this offense going forward. Um, you 1114 00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 1: don't need to call him the feature back. You know 1115 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,600 Speaker 1: you can argue semantics all you want, but the biggest 1116 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:56,799 Speaker 1: thing that I took out of that game was Devin 1117 00:52:56,880 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 1: Singletary needs to be as involved as he was on 1118 00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:04,839 Speaker 1: Sunday for almost every game the rest of the way. Here, 1119 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 1: for the last eight games of the season, he's got 1120 00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:09,560 Speaker 1: to be that involved. He's got to be around twenty 1121 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 1: touches a game because what he brings to the offense 1122 00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:18,719 Speaker 1: is I mean, right now, as a rookie, he's one 1123 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:21,520 Speaker 1: of the two most dynamic playmakers on that offense, not 1124 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:24,400 Speaker 1: counting the quarterback. The quarterbacks of dynamic playmaker because of 1125 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:26,239 Speaker 1: the athlete he isn't because of the arm strength that 1126 00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:28,800 Speaker 1: he has, and that's great, But in terms of the 1127 00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:32,919 Speaker 1: weapons he has at his disposal, Devin Singletary and John 1128 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 1: Brown are the two most dynamic weapons on the offense. 1129 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:39,759 Speaker 1: They have to be utilized the most going forward over 1130 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 1: these last eight games, and I think Singletary perfect example. 1131 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 1: He had one hundred and forty total yards from scrimmage yesterday. 1132 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 1: The last time they got that much production out of 1133 00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 1: one player was twenty seventeen, when LeJean McCoy had one 1134 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:57,800 Speaker 1: hundred and forty five total yards from scrimmage against the Patriots. 1135 00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:01,200 Speaker 1: That is how rare and how few and far between 1136 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,000 Speaker 1: we have seen performances like that. If that is an 1137 00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:07,800 Speaker 1: indication to give him the ball that many times every 1138 00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:09,920 Speaker 1: week for the last eight games of the regular season, 1139 00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:11,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what is, Chris. I agree with you, 1140 00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:14,799 Speaker 1: but you're begging the question. So he comes back from 1141 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:16,960 Speaker 1: the hamstring, and Okay, maybe you needed a little break 1142 00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,240 Speaker 1: in time, but this is the third game back. Yesterday 1143 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:21,320 Speaker 1: was the third game back, right since the hamstring? What 1144 00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 1: took so long to make him such a prominent part 1145 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 1: of the Buffalo rushing attack. I don't have that answer. 1146 00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:29,520 Speaker 1: I don't have that answer, and I don't know if 1147 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:33,239 Speaker 1: we're gonna get it either. I just I think there 1148 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:37,759 Speaker 1: is I could be wrong on this as an educated guest, 1149 00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:44,680 Speaker 1: but I think there is a methodical approach to integrating 1150 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 1: new pieces into this offense. I think they're they don't 1151 00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 1: operate in a knee jerk fashion. And this is part 1152 00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:58,120 Speaker 1: of coach McDermott's philosophy, and it's for the most part, 1153 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:00,440 Speaker 1: it's worked well for him. He takes him a methodical 1154 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,760 Speaker 1: approach to every decision he makes. He takes a methodical 1155 00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:08,799 Speaker 1: approach to a direction that he takes with his football team, 1156 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 1: whether it's offense, defense, special teams. And I think this 1157 00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:14,080 Speaker 1: is another example of that, and I don't think it 1158 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:18,160 Speaker 1: makes it wrong. I just think we see the production 1159 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:20,239 Speaker 1: that we're like, whoo, would I like to have that? 1160 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 1: You know last week, you know against Philly or you know, 1161 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:25,920 Speaker 1: even it wasn't available for the New England game, but 1162 00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:29,440 Speaker 1: you see it and you say, man, why couldn't we 1163 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:31,719 Speaker 1: have that two weeks ago? But I don't think he's 1164 00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:35,680 Speaker 1: ever going to deviate from his principles, which are, number one, 1165 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:38,879 Speaker 1: you got to earn your time on the field. Number two, 1166 00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 1: while we drafted you for a reason and we believe 1167 00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:45,440 Speaker 1: in you. There are certain things that he needs to 1168 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,879 Speaker 1: see from every player on this roster before he gives 1169 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 1: them the gold star and says go get him. I 1170 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:54,400 Speaker 1: think he's got his gold star now, so I'm not 1171 00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:57,600 Speaker 1: worried about it going forward. But he has proven to 1172 00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:00,759 Speaker 1: everybody who was in that stadium or watching on TV 1173 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 1: that he needs to be a key focal point of 1174 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:06,600 Speaker 1: this offense going forward. There is I don't know how 1175 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,360 Speaker 1: you can debate it going forward. I'm not going to 1176 00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 1: debate it. I agree, Hey, what were they saying after 1177 00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:12,920 Speaker 1: the game, we had microphones and cameras in there. Time 1178 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:15,200 Speaker 1: now for around the locker room, brought to you by 1179 00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:18,360 Speaker 1: Connected like Blood and Oregan Donor Network. Here we go 1180 00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:22,919 Speaker 1: around the locker room. Quarterback Josh Allen on the win 1181 00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:25,480 Speaker 1: over Washington. You know, I mean I feel good being 1182 00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:28,759 Speaker 1: six and two. Um, obviously there's still a lot of 1183 00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:30,399 Speaker 1: things that we need to learn from and grow from. 1184 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 1: And um, I think today we did a good job of, 1185 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:34,960 Speaker 1: you know, establishing the run game and going out there. 1186 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:37,960 Speaker 1: Our online did a great job doing that early. You know, 1187 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:41,400 Speaker 1: there's still still times where um, you know, I myself 1188 00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:43,839 Speaker 1: make sure I'm still pushing our guys and make sure 1189 00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:45,759 Speaker 1: that we're still striving to be the best that we 1190 00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:49,000 Speaker 1: can be. And UM, so I mean after, you know, 1191 00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 1: after at the end of the day, we're six and two, 1192 00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:53,279 Speaker 1: and um feels good. But I think everybody's got the 1193 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 1: same mindset right now that we still we're still hungry, 1194 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 1: we still want to grow, we still want to learn. Um, 1195 00:56:57,840 --> 00:56:59,439 Speaker 1: it's new to try to find the best team to camera. 1196 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,640 Speaker 1: Head coach Sean McDermott on the Bills being six and 1197 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:05,520 Speaker 1: two at the midpoint of the season. Look for six 1198 00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:08,800 Speaker 1: and two with a lot of games to play, and 1199 00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:13,680 Speaker 1: we've got to continue to improve and embrace that that mindset. 1200 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:16,920 Speaker 1: Remain humble and hungry. That's really what Buffalo is about 1201 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,600 Speaker 1: in my opinion, since moving here two plus years, and 1202 00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 1: this place is a humble city, humbletown. Um that's hungry, 1203 00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:28,439 Speaker 1: and then we need to embrace that. Running back Devin 1204 00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 1: Singletary his impact on the Bills run game, rolling big 1205 00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:35,360 Speaker 1: goals a game plus. So I just just trying to 1206 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:38,640 Speaker 1: pee my way through. Yeah, body was not seeing even 1207 00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 1: the tight ends and receivers were getting them on block, 1208 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:45,160 Speaker 1: so everybody was rolling. Wide receiver Cole Beasley his third 1209 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,920 Speaker 1: straight game with a receiving touchdown. That's a good play 1210 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,320 Speaker 1: calls by Daves and Josh has been able to find me. 1211 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 1: It could have been anybody else in this situation, but 1212 00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:58,520 Speaker 1: he called that play was actually meant for me, you know, 1213 00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:01,160 Speaker 1: I like the one last week, So I was bad 1214 00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:05,520 Speaker 1: he called it. But I mean there's nothing really anything 1215 00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 1: crazy too that how it has worked out in the past. 1216 00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 1: Completes left tackle Dion Darkins. The Bills are winning the 1217 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:15,040 Speaker 1: close ones even though they're not putting teams away. I 1218 00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:19,120 Speaker 1: wish that we were, you know, all superheroes, but we're not. 1219 00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:23,400 Speaker 1: And the NFL is extremely hard to win in. And uh, 1220 00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: it's really really, really really really hard to just shut 1221 00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:32,200 Speaker 1: teams completely out because everybody is in the NFL for 1222 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:35,919 Speaker 1: a reason. And uh, once again, blessed those guys. They're 1223 00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,440 Speaker 1: a great team and they played hard, and uh, you know, 1224 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,680 Speaker 1: we just ended up one top right backer Lorenzo Alexander. 1225 00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:45,360 Speaker 1: I'm Buffalo's second half adjustments against Adrian Peterson. It really 1226 00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 1: was nothing different than we did. M guys just was 1227 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:50,720 Speaker 1: able to maintain the gap, playing down here a little 1228 00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:53,000 Speaker 1: bit better with the linebackers putting off the double teams 1229 00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:54,560 Speaker 1: and then guys who's able to attack them. I mean 1230 00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:57,479 Speaker 1: that first half he was making some great cuts, getting 1231 00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:00,320 Speaker 1: on some corners, and he won't wrapping up and make 1232 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 1: us a big play, just you know, being a Hall 1233 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:05,000 Speaker 1: of Fame elevent player. So the second half of think 1234 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 1: we just came out and collaboratively tackle better and played 1235 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:12,080 Speaker 1: our gass much better. Safety Micah High no more apologies 1236 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:15,600 Speaker 1: for victory, Um, But like I said, I'm done apologizing 1237 00:59:15,640 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 1: for ugly wins. It's a win. We're six and two 1238 00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 1: this time last year we were two and six us 1239 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:22,440 Speaker 1: it two ugly though, Michael, you guys held him out 1240 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:24,080 Speaker 1: of the end zone. Only nine points three field those 1241 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:26,000 Speaker 1: that's that's a nice win. Yeah, yeah, you know we do. 1242 00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:27,520 Speaker 1: We did get a reads on today. This is a 1243 00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:31,760 Speaker 1: definitely an accomplishment. They go around the locker room. It 1244 00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 1: has brought to you by Connect Life Blood and organ 1245 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:37,000 Speaker 1: Donor Network. Jamurphy with Chris Brown our Twitter poll today 1246 00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 1: and Mica high says he's not apologizing for ugly wins. 1247 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:42,200 Speaker 1: He should not. Bills are off to their best start 1248 00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,360 Speaker 1: through eight games since nineteen ninety three. Do they get 1249 00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:46,720 Speaker 1: enough credit for that six and two start? What do 1250 00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:48,520 Speaker 1: you think? That's our Twitter poll today. We've had it 1251 00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:50,400 Speaker 1: up for an hour and a half, six hundred and 1252 00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:53,360 Speaker 1: seventy eight votes in and sixty four percent of you 1253 00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:55,640 Speaker 1: almost two thirds say you know what. No, they're not 1254 00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:57,840 Speaker 1: getting in for credit for starting the season with six 1255 00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:00,720 Speaker 1: wins two losses. Thirty six percent say yes they are. 1256 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:03,920 Speaker 1: Let's hear from you eight fifty toll free one eight 1257 01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:06,920 Speaker 1: eight five fifty two five fifty, or you can send 1258 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:09,280 Speaker 1: in a tweet. We may read it on the tweet sheet, 1259 01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:11,440 Speaker 1: or you can vote in the Twitter poll. Let us 1260 01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:13,360 Speaker 1: know what you think. Let's start here with Tom and 1261 01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:15,400 Speaker 1: West Seneca. Tom, go ahead, you're on the air with us, 1262 01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:18,800 Speaker 1: John Chris, thank you so much for having me. No, 1263 01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:21,959 Speaker 1: we're not getting enough credit. Any team that is six 1264 01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:26,200 Speaker 1: and two midway through the season should be getting a 1265 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:31,160 Speaker 1: lot more credit, especially when you take into consideration that 1266 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 1: the two teams we lost to were the Super Bowl participants, 1267 01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:40,960 Speaker 1: the world champions New England Patriots, and we should have 1268 01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,960 Speaker 1: won that game. He had not been for blocked pumped 1269 01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:49,720 Speaker 1: in the game against Philadelphia, that that wasn't the same 1270 01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:53,160 Speaker 1: team that played the Patriots. So we'll let that one slide. 1271 01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:55,960 Speaker 1: But six and two and you're playing with a young 1272 01:00:56,680 --> 01:01:01,240 Speaker 1: quarterback who's really still in the infantils stages of his development, 1273 01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 1: and he's playing really great. Uh. I think they deserve 1274 01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:07,080 Speaker 1: a lot more credit. And I don't know if you 1275 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:10,760 Speaker 1: guys noticed it, but at the third and one in 1276 01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:13,760 Speaker 1: the game against Philadelphia was seven to three, we were up, 1277 01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:17,680 Speaker 1: and it turned out at a halftime eleven to seven 1278 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:20,760 Speaker 1: in favor of Philly. But that they spotted the ball 1279 01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:24,080 Speaker 1: rung it was supposed to be two feet shy of 1280 01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:27,040 Speaker 1: the fourteen yard line, and they spotted it on the 1281 01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:30,240 Speaker 1: fourteen yard line. It's to me it seemed like a 1282 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:33,800 Speaker 1: turning point. But uh, yeah, I remember that. We'll play. 1283 01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:36,000 Speaker 1: Do you remember that. Let's let Chris talk about that. 1284 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:39,040 Speaker 1: Go ahead. Yeah. They did not spot it properly, and 1285 01:01:40,040 --> 01:01:42,200 Speaker 1: the player, the coaches on the sideline are like, what 1286 01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:44,959 Speaker 1: the heck just happened? Where did that miraculous a foot 1287 01:01:44,960 --> 01:01:48,000 Speaker 1: and a half come from? And you know, the refs 1288 01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:50,760 Speaker 1: are just like whatever, and you're gonna get me back 1289 01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:55,360 Speaker 1: on my Soapbax again for automatic laser eye technology to 1290 01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:58,680 Speaker 1: spot the ball by putting tags, you know, on each 1291 01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:03,360 Speaker 1: nose of the football and then digitally mapping out the 1292 01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:10,720 Speaker 1: field via computer mapping and have it measured electronically where 1293 01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:13,600 Speaker 1: the spot of the ball should take place based on 1294 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:17,439 Speaker 1: contact and force and all of that stuff. You can't 1295 01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:21,240 Speaker 1: tell me that we have the garage door open or 1296 01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:23,280 Speaker 1: laser beam for the better part of the last twenty 1297 01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 1: five years that knows when to keep the garage door 1298 01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:29,600 Speaker 1: from coming down on you. And you can't adapt that 1299 01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:32,600 Speaker 1: kind of technology running up and down the sideline on 1300 01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:35,760 Speaker 1: a track, shooting a beam across the field and accurately 1301 01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:39,560 Speaker 1: measuring the spot of a football. It's twenty nineteen. I mean, 1302 01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:41,600 Speaker 1: we landed a man on the moon fifty years ago. 1303 01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:43,760 Speaker 1: We can't measure the spot of a football with an 1304 01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 1: electronic eye. I mean, get the heck out of Dodge here. 1305 01:02:46,240 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 1: You're gonna get me angry again, Murph. I'm telling you 1306 01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 1: right now, we've got to get that fixed because we 1307 01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:55,240 Speaker 1: got three guys that can't eyeball it. The game moves 1308 01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:59,600 Speaker 1: too fast for a bunch of septagenarians to effectively measure 1309 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:01,560 Speaker 1: where the football goes on the field. I'm not going 1310 01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:03,680 Speaker 1: to talk about efficiating today. I'm not going to complain 1311 01:03:03,720 --> 01:03:06,280 Speaker 1: about I don't want to either. But we're gonna get 1312 01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:09,000 Speaker 1: back to arbitrary marking of the football. It's gonna screw 1313 01:03:09,120 --> 01:03:11,600 Speaker 1: some team at of some game at some point in time, 1314 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:13,560 Speaker 1: and then everybody else is going to come to my 1315 01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:15,160 Speaker 1: side of the argument and say, you know what, we 1316 01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:17,720 Speaker 1: should get some technology on this. It might be more effective. 1317 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:19,800 Speaker 1: Let's go to Nick on Long Island. Hello, Nicko, ahead, 1318 01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:22,640 Speaker 1: you're out there. Hey, how are you doing, guys good? 1319 01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:27,080 Speaker 1: I just wanted to say that, you know, it's great 1320 01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 1: being a Bills fan on Long Island Right now? I 1321 01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:35,880 Speaker 1: am behind enemy line, surrounded by Jet fans every day. 1322 01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:39,600 Speaker 1: And you know here, I am listening to you on 1323 01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:43,440 Speaker 1: the radio yesterday, Murph, and on this at work at 1324 01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:48,760 Speaker 1: the bar. Josh Allen's going down the field, no interceptions, 1325 01:03:49,280 --> 01:03:53,360 Speaker 1: playing better and better every week. And Sam Darnold is awful. 1326 01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:58,840 Speaker 1: Got singletary one hundred and forty all purpose yards. Leveyon Bell, 1327 01:03:59,200 --> 01:04:04,880 Speaker 1: Jet fans, what's going on, Sean McDermott, the coaching staff 1328 01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:09,760 Speaker 1: versus Adam Gase. This has been the best season since 1329 01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:15,720 Speaker 1: I'm thirteen years old. And everybody in Buffalo should appreciate 1330 01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:19,760 Speaker 1: everything that's going on for the Bills right now. And 1331 01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:24,240 Speaker 1: it's just awesome. I'm glad you're enjoying it. And I'm 1332 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:26,960 Speaker 1: going to tell you this, Murphy, it is getting rough. 1333 01:04:27,720 --> 01:04:29,640 Speaker 1: I mean, it was already bad to begin with, but 1334 01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:31,840 Speaker 1: the season really couldn't have gone any worse for the 1335 01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:35,960 Speaker 1: Jets until yesterday when they gave the Dolphins their first 1336 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:38,800 Speaker 1: win of the season. Now, I'm gonna be honest with you, 1337 01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:42,960 Speaker 1: I actually feel bad for Sam Darnold because he is 1338 01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:48,000 Speaker 1: in an environment where I think there is limited player development, 1339 01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:53,040 Speaker 1: There is not a lot of cohesion in terms of 1340 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:58,320 Speaker 1: an offensive plan, to help him be a successful quarterback. 1341 01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:04,160 Speaker 1: And there is zero culture in the Jets locker room 1342 01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:06,880 Speaker 1: because they have a head coach who is not a 1343 01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 1: leader of men. When they hired Adam Gase, I winced. 1344 01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:16,320 Speaker 1: I winced for all my Long Island buddies that I 1345 01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:20,080 Speaker 1: grew up with, because and I believe me, I still 1346 01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:24,000 Speaker 1: get texts from these guys. And I got a Jets text, 1347 01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 1: not even this week. I didn't even get one this 1348 01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:28,720 Speaker 1: week because it was probably just too embarrassing to even 1349 01:05:28,760 --> 01:05:32,320 Speaker 1: respond to. But last week I got a text about 1350 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 1: the Jets that included five clown face emojis. When I'll 1351 01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:42,480 Speaker 1: let you interpret what that means about the Jets, but 1352 01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:46,800 Speaker 1: suffice to say they're not happy with Adam Gase. There 1353 01:05:46,880 --> 01:05:51,240 Speaker 1: were fire Adam Gaye chants happening in the Dolphins stadium 1354 01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:54,200 Speaker 1: yesterday because you know, as you as you probably surmised, 1355 01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:56,040 Speaker 1: there's a lot of New York transplants that live in 1356 01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:58,720 Speaker 1: South Florida and they take that game in every year, 1357 01:05:59,320 --> 01:06:02,840 Speaker 1: fire at him Gaye chance, there's do you see the 1358 01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:05,560 Speaker 1: irony and all that? He just got fired last year 1359 01:06:05,680 --> 01:06:09,760 Speaker 1: in Miami and now he's in Miami playing the team 1360 01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:13,000 Speaker 1: he used to coach losing to them and his new 1361 01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:16,400 Speaker 1: fans of the Jets are saying, fire Adam Gase. I mean, 1362 01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:18,360 Speaker 1: that is just I don't know if he gets more 1363 01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:20,920 Speaker 1: ironics than that. There was I'm looking for it here. 1364 01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:24,160 Speaker 1: It is Mani Schmida, who you know from New York. Oh, 1365 01:06:24,240 --> 01:06:26,720 Speaker 1: he's stirring the pot today. Yeah, he's all over gays, 1366 01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:28,680 Speaker 1: you know, And I would I'm gonna tell you, I 1367 01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:30,880 Speaker 1: feel like I was on the front lines of this 1368 01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:32,560 Speaker 1: guy's not meant to be a head coach. And I 1369 01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:34,480 Speaker 1: thought that when he was at Miami. But there was 1370 01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:38,000 Speaker 1: a picture yesterday from the game the Jets are losing 1371 01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:40,920 Speaker 1: at Miami yesterday. The bench picture. Yes, there's a picture 1372 01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:43,880 Speaker 1: of Adam Gaze on the sidelines all by himself, nobody 1373 01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:46,360 Speaker 1: around him for maybe five yards on each side, and 1374 01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 1: the coaching staff in front of him, and a couple 1375 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 1: of players on the bench and he's got his head 1376 01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:54,040 Speaker 1: down with his call sheet, making notes and scribbling something. Yeah, 1377 01:06:54,200 --> 01:06:57,160 Speaker 1: not even watching the game is going on. Yeah, And look, 1378 01:06:57,360 --> 01:06:59,360 Speaker 1: the guy is a play caller, and what we can 1379 01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:01,120 Speaker 1: debate whether he's a good one or not, I guess, 1380 01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:03,160 Speaker 1: but he's not a head coach. And he never was 1381 01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,120 Speaker 1: a good head coach at Miami either, and they made 1382 01:07:05,120 --> 01:07:07,200 Speaker 1: the playoffs one with him. I hear that. But he's 1383 01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:09,360 Speaker 1: not a good head coach. He's a play caller and 1384 01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:12,120 Speaker 1: he's not a quarterback whisperer, and he never was. And 1385 01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:14,960 Speaker 1: I can see why Minish Meta and these people a 1386 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:17,560 Speaker 1: lot of New York media and your buddies New York 1387 01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:20,640 Speaker 1: fans probably focus on Adam Gates as the problem. He 1388 01:07:20,880 --> 01:07:23,720 Speaker 1: is the problem. He was asked after the game yesterday. 1389 01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:27,240 Speaker 1: And this is this is an example of how New 1390 01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:30,280 Speaker 1: York media and probably Philly media are the two toughest 1391 01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:32,960 Speaker 1: media markets in the country in terms of getting on 1392 01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:37,880 Speaker 1: coaches and stuff. He was asked after the game, is 1393 01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:45,680 Speaker 1: this loss justification for you being fired by the Miami Dolphins? WHOA, 1394 01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:50,520 Speaker 1: that is a tough one. Yeah. Wow the answer. I 1395 01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:52,920 Speaker 1: didn't even see the answer. I just saw the question 1396 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:56,320 Speaker 1: in print somewhere and I was like, whoa, whoa. Yeah, 1397 01:07:56,680 --> 01:07:59,400 Speaker 1: the blood is in the water. Yep, he's not less. 1398 01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:01,520 Speaker 1: I don't think is gonna make it. I really don't. 1399 01:08:01,680 --> 01:08:03,800 Speaker 1: And you know, you look at the Jets and you 1400 01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:08,640 Speaker 1: look at the Browns. Two play callers that were anointed 1401 01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:12,000 Speaker 1: as head coaches. Now, I think the Jets hire is 1402 01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:16,360 Speaker 1: more egregious because it didn't work in Miami. And if 1403 01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:19,280 Speaker 1: you did your homework, I think you would recog I mean, 1404 01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:21,840 Speaker 1: if people like you and I can see if from 1405 01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:24,280 Speaker 1: the outside that this guy is not a leader of men. 1406 01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:29,720 Speaker 1: How after doing what should be exhaustive research and investigation, 1407 01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:33,280 Speaker 1: do you come to the conclusion that he should be 1408 01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:36,000 Speaker 1: hired as a head coach for your franchise in the 1409 01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:40,080 Speaker 1: same division. Now, I know Peyton Manning went to bat 1410 01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:43,360 Speaker 1: for Adam Gas, and I'm sure he was very convincing 1411 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:47,040 Speaker 1: to the Jets brass, but I mean, this just does 1412 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:49,600 Speaker 1: It did not compute for me from the word go. 1413 01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:55,759 Speaker 1: And you know, at least in Cleveland you had something 1414 01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:58,720 Speaker 1: to go on. He was in the throes of a 1415 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:03,599 Speaker 1: turbulent environment. He helped Baker Mayfield as a rookie. Kitchens, right, 1416 01:09:03,680 --> 01:09:08,519 Speaker 1: Freddy Kitchens, You knew that mail and Mayfield probably spoke 1417 01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:11,280 Speaker 1: highly of him, so you endorse the guy, you hire 1418 01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:14,120 Speaker 1: him as your head coach. But again they're missing the 1419 01:09:14,200 --> 01:09:17,879 Speaker 1: mark here. This guy is a play caller. In my estimation, 1420 01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:21,439 Speaker 1: Freddy Kitchens is not a leader of men. And then 1421 01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:24,679 Speaker 1: they doubled down on the problem by having a play 1422 01:09:24,720 --> 01:09:29,360 Speaker 1: caller as a head coach and just blindly accumulating talent, 1423 01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:32,320 Speaker 1: and Daniel Jeremiah, I'll give some credit to him today. 1424 01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:36,519 Speaker 1: He tweeted today that what you see in Cleveland is 1425 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 1: yet another example of the difference between collecting talent and 1426 01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:44,800 Speaker 1: building a team. And I think if you look at 1427 01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:48,160 Speaker 1: the way the Bills have philosophically built this what has 1428 01:09:48,200 --> 01:09:51,360 Speaker 1: Brandon being said over and over and over again, I'm 1429 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:55,240 Speaker 1: not looking to accumulate talent. I'm looking to build a 1430 01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:58,400 Speaker 1: team the exact opposite of what the Jets and the 1431 01:09:58,479 --> 01:10:01,040 Speaker 1: Browns have done. And what do you you have? What 1432 01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:03,720 Speaker 1: a one and seventeen and a two and sixteen. Let's 1433 01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:05,639 Speaker 1: take a call here, Kevin on the line, Kevin, go ahead, 1434 01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:06,920 Speaker 1: you're on the air with this. How are you doing? 1435 01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:10,320 Speaker 1: Thanks for taking my call? Sure. I'm watching the game 1436 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 1: last night, And there was also wonderful beside the Bills 1437 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:15,519 Speaker 1: went in the Ravens killing the Patriot. I noticed that 1438 01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:18,519 Speaker 1: great Roman, the coordinator for the Ravens, up in the 1439 01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:21,400 Speaker 1: press box so he can see more of the field 1440 01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:24,960 Speaker 1: sometimes up in the box compared I'm wondering if Debo ever, 1441 01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:27,240 Speaker 1: tried to be up in the press box because sometimes 1442 01:10:27,680 --> 01:10:30,479 Speaker 1: on the field, I think you can only see bodies 1443 01:10:30,560 --> 01:10:33,800 Speaker 1: on the coverage. Up in the top, you can see defenses. 1444 01:10:34,360 --> 01:10:36,519 Speaker 1: He did that last year a couple of games, right, Yeah, 1445 01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:39,320 Speaker 1: he yeah, his first year with the club. Last year, 1446 01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:41,200 Speaker 1: he was up for some of the preseason and then 1447 01:10:41,240 --> 01:10:44,720 Speaker 1: he was down. And I think, and I've had conversations 1448 01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:49,800 Speaker 1: with him about this, the main impetus for him staying downstairs, 1449 01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:55,040 Speaker 1: especially last year, was because of the direct communication that 1450 01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:58,479 Speaker 1: he could have with Josh, especially as a rookie, you know, 1451 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:01,040 Speaker 1: kind of learning as he goes, and to a certain extent, 1452 01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:02,840 Speaker 1: I believe he still is learning as he goes now, 1453 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:05,559 Speaker 1: even in his second year as a starter. And it's 1454 01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:11,200 Speaker 1: it's evident to me that coach Dabel has a comfort 1455 01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:14,560 Speaker 1: level with the eyeball to eyeball communication he can have 1456 01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:17,200 Speaker 1: with Josh because he's not only listening to him talk 1457 01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:19,759 Speaker 1: to him on the phone. If he's upstairs, he's seeing 1458 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:23,680 Speaker 1: his body language. He's getting honest feedback from him, not 1459 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:25,640 Speaker 1: only from the words that he's saying, but for the 1460 01:11:26,040 --> 01:11:28,320 Speaker 1: look that he's giving him. It's clear to me that 1461 01:11:28,400 --> 01:11:30,439 Speaker 1: Dabel wants to look his quarterback in the eye and 1462 01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 1: get a feel for exactly what he thinks he's seeing 1463 01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:36,080 Speaker 1: out there, what he feels he would have confidence in 1464 01:11:36,160 --> 01:11:39,120 Speaker 1: executing on the field. He feels that makes a difference. 1465 01:11:39,200 --> 01:11:41,439 Speaker 1: And you say, well that now he doesn't have the 1466 01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:43,680 Speaker 1: eyes in the sky, Well he does. He still has 1467 01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:45,960 Speaker 1: eyes in the sky. He's got receivers coach Chad Hall, 1468 01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:47,680 Speaker 1: who I believe he's upstairs, You're right next to them. 1469 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:49,599 Speaker 1: Who else is up there down the hall? I'm not sure. 1470 01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:51,360 Speaker 1: Oh they're down the hall now a little bit. Oh 1471 01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:55,719 Speaker 1: that's right. Okay. So he's got guys upstairs tracking plays, 1472 01:11:56,280 --> 01:12:00,479 Speaker 1: taking pictures of the coverages. So yeah, everything that he's 1473 01:12:00,520 --> 01:12:03,839 Speaker 1: not seeing firsthand, he is getting second hand between series 1474 01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:06,800 Speaker 1: to help him decide, well, maybe I'm going to go 1475 01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:09,280 Speaker 1: in this direction with my personnel groupings and play calls 1476 01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:12,360 Speaker 1: for the next series. So it's not like he's robbing 1477 01:12:12,479 --> 01:12:14,559 Speaker 1: himself of an opportunity to see the field. He's got 1478 01:12:14,640 --> 01:12:16,600 Speaker 1: eyeballs upstairs that are doing that for you. You know, 1479 01:12:16,680 --> 01:12:18,599 Speaker 1: you can watch it if you watch when the Buffalo 1480 01:12:18,720 --> 01:12:21,639 Speaker 1: defense is on the field, day ball sits right down, 1481 01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:23,839 Speaker 1: they take a look at their pictures on their tablets 1482 01:12:23,880 --> 01:12:25,719 Speaker 1: and they sit right next to each other for virtually 1483 01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:28,160 Speaker 1: the entire period when the defense is out there. They 1484 01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:30,200 Speaker 1: did it yesterday and there was a counterpoint. May I 1485 01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:32,200 Speaker 1: think it was a New England game when there was 1486 01:12:32,360 --> 01:12:34,960 Speaker 1: not angry, but sort of an animated discussion with Dabo 1487 01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:37,160 Speaker 1: yelling right at Josh on the side lens looking at 1488 01:12:37,360 --> 01:12:40,320 Speaker 1: the tablet right the counterpoint. Yesterday, they're looking at the tablet. 1489 01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:43,120 Speaker 1: It was after a big play or a touchdown drive 1490 01:12:43,400 --> 01:12:45,360 Speaker 1: and Dabele just reaches over and pats him on the back, 1491 01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:47,000 Speaker 1: and I thought, perfect, that's the other side of what 1492 01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:48,640 Speaker 1: happened a couple of weeks ago. I think they just 1493 01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:53,080 Speaker 1: like having that direct communication with not even a phone 1494 01:12:53,120 --> 01:12:55,400 Speaker 1: line between them. I think Dabel likes being able to 1495 01:12:55,439 --> 01:12:57,719 Speaker 1: look his quarterback in the eye and get a feel 1496 01:12:57,800 --> 01:13:00,519 Speaker 1: for what he's seeing, what he's doing, and right, frankly, 1497 01:13:01,479 --> 01:13:05,320 Speaker 1: when you're upstairs, there's a disconnect. I mean, as as 1498 01:13:05,680 --> 01:13:09,080 Speaker 1: small as it may seem, being some three and fifty 1499 01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:11,720 Speaker 1: feet away, there's a disconnect there. And I don't think 1500 01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:14,519 Speaker 1: he wants that right now with his quarterback. Maybe as 1501 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:18,120 Speaker 1: these two guys go forward, get more comfortable in their relationship, 1502 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:22,080 Speaker 1: more give and take and more success in the offense. 1503 01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:24,799 Speaker 1: Maybe there will come a time where Dabe feels comfortable 1504 01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:28,160 Speaker 1: going upstairs because the relationship that they've built is so 1505 01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:30,720 Speaker 1: strong that a lot of it in the future just 1506 01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:33,479 Speaker 1: happens by osmosis between the two of them. But for 1507 01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:36,400 Speaker 1: right now, I think being on the sidelines is the 1508 01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:38,720 Speaker 1: best place for him. Chris Brown here until three, he's 1509 01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:40,960 Speaker 1: in four. Steve task Here. We got Maddie glab standing 1510 01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:44,719 Speaker 1: by to present the Maddie's her rewards for yesterday's Buffalo victory. 1511 01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:46,760 Speaker 1: Come on back and join us for that one. Bills 1512 01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:49,240 Speaker 1: Live presented by Kalida Health, coming in from the Seneca 1513 01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:52,479 Speaker 1: Studios in Orchard Park, and this is Buffalo Bill's Radio, 1514 01:14:04,640 --> 01:14:06,479 Speaker 1: one of those last gen Murphy. Chris Bound is in 1515 01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:09,040 Speaker 1: for Steve Tasker, and we've got Maddie glad back on 1516 01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:11,600 Speaker 1: the show. PSC Reporter covers the Sabers. We have her 1517 01:14:11,680 --> 01:14:13,200 Speaker 1: on here to talk about the bills. She covers the 1518 01:14:13,280 --> 01:14:15,639 Speaker 1: bills and she's got the winners. She's got the envelope 1519 01:14:15,640 --> 01:14:18,080 Speaker 1: full up winners for the Maddies. Tell us again the 1520 01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:20,439 Speaker 1: concept of the Maddies. For those who are just tuning 1521 01:14:20,479 --> 01:14:22,479 Speaker 1: in this week Maddie. Well, for those who are just 1522 01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:25,599 Speaker 1: tuning in, we have gotten the Maddies now six times 1523 01:14:25,760 --> 01:14:29,439 Speaker 1: this season, which I'm very excited about six wins. I mean, 1524 01:14:29,479 --> 01:14:31,240 Speaker 1: I wish it could be eight times, but six and 1525 01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:34,280 Speaker 1: two is pretty good. So after a win, we highlight 1526 01:14:34,479 --> 01:14:36,360 Speaker 1: some of the things that we liked the best out 1527 01:14:36,400 --> 01:14:39,840 Speaker 1: of this team, and we go Bills, and then we 1528 01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:42,280 Speaker 1: also look around the NFL two at some other things 1529 01:14:42,800 --> 01:14:45,200 Speaker 1: before we get to the Maddies. Do you would you 1530 01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:47,400 Speaker 1: play along with our Twitter poll today because I think 1531 01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:49,040 Speaker 1: you have something to say about this. Our Twitter pole 1532 01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:51,560 Speaker 1: today deals with the six and two Buffalo Bills and 1533 01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:56,120 Speaker 1: the perception of the Bills, not nationally or not exclusively 1534 01:14:56,240 --> 01:14:58,800 Speaker 1: nationally or locally, but overall. The Bills are off to 1535 01:14:58,840 --> 01:15:01,120 Speaker 1: their best start through eight games since nineteen ninety three. 1536 01:15:01,320 --> 01:15:04,040 Speaker 1: Do they get enough credit for their six and two starts? 1537 01:15:04,040 --> 01:15:07,400 Speaker 1: They haven't want anything of consequence. Yet, you don't get 1538 01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:10,040 Speaker 1: medals for half a season, although we got some trophies 1539 01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:13,400 Speaker 1: coming out here, you've got my medals? Come on, that's 1540 01:15:13,479 --> 01:15:16,200 Speaker 1: that's cool. On Twitter. With seven hundred and sixty votes 1541 01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:18,240 Speaker 1: in two thirds of our respond to say you know what, No, 1542 01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:20,920 Speaker 1: they're not getting enough credit thirty six percent. Yeah, they 1543 01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:23,759 Speaker 1: get enough credit you're taking. They do not get enough credit. 1544 01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:26,120 Speaker 1: We are going to play the Cleveland Browns next week 1545 01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:28,880 Speaker 1: and we are not a favorite. I know the home 1546 01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:31,240 Speaker 1: team gets three points there, but still we're playing a 1547 01:15:31,320 --> 01:15:34,400 Speaker 1: tune six Cleveland Browns team and we're opening up as 1548 01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:36,800 Speaker 1: not a favorite. That's crazy. This team does not get 1549 01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:40,280 Speaker 1: enough love for being six and two with what they have, 1550 01:15:40,520 --> 01:15:44,880 Speaker 1: with how long Sean McDermott and his offensive coordinator's coaching 1551 01:15:44,960 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 1: staff defensive cornator has been here. You know, what they've 1552 01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:51,840 Speaker 1: been able to do since he's gotten here is pretty impressive. 1553 01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:54,280 Speaker 1: With all the new players on this team, with all 1554 01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 1: the new faces on this offense, and how they're putting 1555 01:15:56,520 --> 01:16:00,680 Speaker 1: it together halfway through the season. That's correct, right, And 1556 01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:02,200 Speaker 1: here's my point. And Chris, you got to get in 1557 01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:03,920 Speaker 1: on this two before we get to the Mandies. You 1558 01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:05,840 Speaker 1: don't have to. This is not a pat on the back, 1559 01:16:05,880 --> 01:16:07,479 Speaker 1: and you don't have to say, all, fine, we were 1560 01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:10,000 Speaker 1: bad last year. Now there's six wins and oh that's 1561 01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:11,840 Speaker 1: good enough for us. We're just Buffalo and we don't 1562 01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:14,920 Speaker 1: expect anything better. No, we expect great things from the team. 1563 01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:17,200 Speaker 1: And they're off to with the start. They provide you 1564 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:19,600 Speaker 1: an opportunity to produce great things. I think, you know, 1565 01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:22,120 Speaker 1: and as I said with Eric earlier, there are twists 1566 01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:23,840 Speaker 1: and turns coming down the pike that we have no 1567 01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:26,200 Speaker 1: idea how this is going to play out, right, And 1568 01:16:26,680 --> 01:16:29,000 Speaker 1: you know, I think the other side of the coin 1569 01:16:29,120 --> 01:16:32,600 Speaker 1: here too, in terms of why people are reluctant to 1570 01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:35,360 Speaker 1: heap any praise on the team, at least from a 1571 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:38,600 Speaker 1: national perspective, is they don't seem to respect anybody that 1572 01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:42,720 Speaker 1: isn't a perennial playoff team. Unless you're the Chiefs or 1573 01:16:42,800 --> 01:16:46,439 Speaker 1: the Patriots. In the AFC, it doesn't seem like anybody 1574 01:16:46,479 --> 01:16:51,120 Speaker 1: gets much love. There are exceptions, major market teams and 1575 01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:55,160 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff, but unless you're a perennial playoff 1576 01:16:55,240 --> 01:16:57,679 Speaker 1: team or you're undefeated at this point in the season, 1577 01:16:57,760 --> 01:17:00,800 Speaker 1: you're San Francisco, yeah you're not getting a whole lot 1578 01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:03,120 Speaker 1: of credit. They're not going to believe it until they 1579 01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:04,920 Speaker 1: see it. And I get that to a certain extent, 1580 01:17:05,080 --> 01:17:07,280 Speaker 1: but I mean there's something to be said for winning, 1581 01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:10,240 Speaker 1: you know, six out of eight, Yeah, that's pretty good. 1582 01:17:10,680 --> 01:17:12,400 Speaker 1: And then I got to get to the Mandies and 1583 01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:14,200 Speaker 1: I want to get to the manners. But one more 1584 01:17:14,320 --> 01:17:16,240 Speaker 1: on this topic. I don't think there's a locker room 1585 01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:18,519 Speaker 1: down the hall that it gives a darn whether they 1586 01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:20,320 Speaker 1: get enough credit, you know what I mean. This group 1587 01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 1: doesn't care, and I don't care. We're not looking to 1588 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:24,920 Speaker 1: hold a you know, a party for them and you know, 1589 01:17:25,040 --> 01:17:27,000 Speaker 1: feel good pat on the back party. But I don't 1590 01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:28,679 Speaker 1: think they care, and I don't think they should because 1591 01:17:28,720 --> 01:17:31,920 Speaker 1: there's much more things within reach, really within reach, that 1592 01:17:31,960 --> 01:17:34,320 Speaker 1: they can ACCOMPLI And that's not to say anything about 1593 01:17:34,360 --> 01:17:36,280 Speaker 1: this week's opponent, but that's kind of been the difference 1594 01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 1: between them and the Cleveland Browns. Yeah, because what are 1595 01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:42,799 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns worried about. They're worried about wearing joker 1596 01:17:42,880 --> 01:17:45,479 Speaker 1: cleats that they have to take off at halftime. They're 1597 01:17:45,520 --> 01:17:49,040 Speaker 1: worried about what people are saying about them in social media, 1598 01:17:49,120 --> 01:17:50,720 Speaker 1: to the point where one guy just lost his job 1599 01:17:50,800 --> 01:17:54,719 Speaker 1: today and got kicked off the team. They're worried about 1600 01:17:54,800 --> 01:17:57,080 Speaker 1: all the wrong things. And all the guys in this 1601 01:17:57,200 --> 01:17:58,880 Speaker 1: locker room are worried about is going one to know 1602 01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:01,280 Speaker 1: this week right? Putting head down, getting to work, do 1603 01:18:01,400 --> 01:18:03,559 Speaker 1: the work all right. The Maddies, and Maddie has brought 1604 01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:05,679 Speaker 1: out the trophy that goes to each of the Riddy 1605 01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:09,920 Speaker 1: winners today, as does that for every Buffalo victory. One 1606 01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:14,840 Speaker 1: Goes Live presents the Maddies Live from Los Angeles from Hollywood, 1607 01:18:14,880 --> 01:18:17,880 Speaker 1: we present our award ceremony for a Buffalo victory. Maddie 1608 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:20,599 Speaker 1: like to start with the offensive most valuable player yesterday. 1609 01:18:21,280 --> 01:18:23,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I think this is kind of obvious, but 1610 01:18:23,360 --> 01:18:26,200 Speaker 1: Devin's singletary one hundred forty all purpose yards. The way 1611 01:18:26,240 --> 01:18:29,479 Speaker 1: that they got him involved. He had three carries last week, 1612 01:18:29,520 --> 01:18:32,479 Speaker 1: twenty carries this week, and I think that's what this 1613 01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:35,519 Speaker 1: staff is expecting out of him. What he was able 1614 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:38,519 Speaker 1: to do yesterday, how he was able to break tackles, 1615 01:18:38,600 --> 01:18:41,000 Speaker 1: make guys miss. Just what he's doing in his rookie 1616 01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:44,840 Speaker 1: season as a third rounder is pretty incredible. And what 1617 01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:46,479 Speaker 1: he was able to do in front of Frank Gore 1618 01:18:46,520 --> 01:18:49,040 Speaker 1: and Adrian Peterson. How cool is that to be able 1619 01:18:49,720 --> 01:18:52,240 Speaker 1: to have a guy right out of college getting to 1620 01:18:52,320 --> 01:18:55,120 Speaker 1: play on the same field as them and put enough 1621 01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:58,599 Speaker 1: good stats. Yeah right? And he even told us when 1622 01:18:58,640 --> 01:19:01,439 Speaker 1: he was here earlier last hour or that, Adrian Peterson said, 1623 01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:03,559 Speaker 1: you got what it takes to be successful in this league. 1624 01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:06,840 Speaker 1: I mean good enough that you had a great game, 1625 01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:08,720 Speaker 1: but then that guy says that to you was I 1626 01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:10,880 Speaker 1: can't imagine how that feels. That's going to be something 1627 01:19:10,920 --> 01:19:13,240 Speaker 1: you remember forever. He didn't do it alone. He got 1628 01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:15,200 Speaker 1: help for other people up front. Right credit to the 1629 01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:17,240 Speaker 1: offensive line, and I know there are some issues in 1630 01:19:17,280 --> 01:19:20,280 Speaker 1: the short yardage situations, but that's not all on the 1631 01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:22,840 Speaker 1: offensive line, I don't think. And to be able to 1632 01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:26,200 Speaker 1: open those gaps for Devin's Singletarry with as many new 1633 01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:29,080 Speaker 1: faces as they have on that offensive line this season, 1634 01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:32,200 Speaker 1: that's awesome to see Devin Singletarry run for ninety five 1635 01:19:32,280 --> 01:19:34,920 Speaker 1: yards on the ground. Pretty cool. Now, defensive MVP, who 1636 01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:37,240 Speaker 1: do you have? I'd say it goes to the second 1637 01:19:37,280 --> 01:19:39,840 Speaker 1: half defense, the way that they were able to put 1638 01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:43,040 Speaker 1: pressure on from the outside. You saw Trey White grab 1639 01:19:43,120 --> 01:19:46,000 Speaker 1: a stack. You saw Trent Murphy grab a stack against 1640 01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:49,519 Speaker 1: his old team. I think those were some big sacks 1641 01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:51,560 Speaker 1: that they were able to get. Big play Trey. He 1642 01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:53,439 Speaker 1: always shows up when you need him to show up. 1643 01:19:53,479 --> 01:19:55,519 Speaker 1: That was a third down stack that he had yesterday. 1644 01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:58,120 Speaker 1: And to be able to limit Adrian Peterson, he had 1645 01:19:58,120 --> 01:19:59,880 Speaker 1: one hundred and one rushing yards in the first half, 1646 01:20:00,280 --> 01:20:02,479 Speaker 1: seven rushing yards in the second half. They were able 1647 01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:06,840 Speaker 1: to fix those problems that were glaring issues from the 1648 01:20:06,960 --> 01:20:10,000 Speaker 1: Eagles game into the first half of this Redskins game. 1649 01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:11,840 Speaker 1: I like the game that Trent Murphy had yesterday. That 1650 01:20:11,920 --> 01:20:13,280 Speaker 1: might have been one of his best games in the 1651 01:20:13,320 --> 01:20:16,400 Speaker 1: Bill's uniform. I mean, he was a lot of his 1652 01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:18,439 Speaker 1: numbers don't always show up on the stat sheet, but 1653 01:20:18,760 --> 01:20:20,479 Speaker 1: the pursuit that he had to get out to the 1654 01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:23,599 Speaker 1: edge and get Haskins by the ankles and drop him 1655 01:20:23,640 --> 01:20:25,479 Speaker 1: for a sack that was a third down stop if 1656 01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:28,760 Speaker 1: I remember right. And then and then just the force 1657 01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:32,320 Speaker 1: that he was in the second half, in particular enforcing 1658 01:20:32,439 --> 01:20:36,760 Speaker 1: runs back inside and kind of cutting off Peterson's path. 1659 01:20:37,160 --> 01:20:39,719 Speaker 1: He even stopped Smallwood once and forced him back inside. 1660 01:20:39,760 --> 01:20:42,240 Speaker 1: I was. I was impressed with his game yesterday. Trey 1661 01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:44,400 Speaker 1: White sack one of my favorite plays of the game, 1662 01:20:44,479 --> 01:20:46,800 Speaker 1: one of my favorite plays of the season. And you know, 1663 01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:49,519 Speaker 1: the game was in play, it was about six minutes 1664 01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:52,880 Speaker 1: lap five. They'll call corner blitz a lot point. I 1665 01:20:52,960 --> 01:20:54,560 Speaker 1: want to throw. You know, we talked. We spent so 1666 01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:57,240 Speaker 1: much time talking about Brian Dabo's play calling and why 1667 01:20:57,280 --> 01:20:58,600 Speaker 1: do you do this and why do you not do that? 1668 01:20:58,840 --> 01:21:01,080 Speaker 1: The call of blitz there which they never call the 1669 01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:03,799 Speaker 1: blitz Tradevious White, which it never called in that situation. 1670 01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:07,560 Speaker 1: One score game, an eight point game, it was a 1671 01:21:07,640 --> 01:21:09,760 Speaker 1: third and ten from there on thirteen. What a great 1672 01:21:09,800 --> 01:21:11,559 Speaker 1: call came out of nowhere. We haven't seen that at 1673 01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:14,439 Speaker 1: all this year. It was a fantastic defensive call, great 1674 01:21:14,479 --> 01:21:16,960 Speaker 1: execution by Tradevious White. But what a great call that was? 1675 01:21:17,320 --> 01:21:21,000 Speaker 1: A corner blitz pumps me up. I love that is like, 1676 01:21:21,360 --> 01:21:23,400 Speaker 1: I mean, that gets me fired up. And that had 1677 01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:25,200 Speaker 1: to get the defense and the offense fired up when 1678 01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:28,400 Speaker 1: you see that on third down to be able to 1679 01:21:28,880 --> 01:21:31,280 Speaker 1: get off the field and have the offense come back 1680 01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:34,720 Speaker 1: on and do their job, I mean great. I saw 1681 01:21:34,840 --> 01:21:37,400 Speaker 1: him in the tunnel after the game, after the locker 1682 01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:39,559 Speaker 1: room interviewers were done and everything, and I was like, hey, 1683 01:21:39,760 --> 01:21:42,280 Speaker 1: you got Zack. He's like, first one had to come 1684 01:21:42,400 --> 01:21:44,479 Speaker 1: some point, you know how Trey is like he was 1685 01:21:44,560 --> 01:21:46,439 Speaker 1: just he was fired up about it, so his first 1686 01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:48,680 Speaker 1: career saying that was cool. Maddie glab Is with us 1687 01:21:48,720 --> 01:21:51,320 Speaker 1: with the Maddis Her Awards post Game Awards for yesterday's 1688 01:21:51,360 --> 01:21:54,479 Speaker 1: victory best locker room quote, and we I think you 1689 01:21:54,520 --> 01:21:57,840 Speaker 1: guys talked about this a little bit ago, Mica Hives saying, 1690 01:21:57,920 --> 01:22:00,960 Speaker 1: we're not going to apologize for being six and two 1691 01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:03,800 Speaker 1: and winning games anymore. I love that that's a guy 1692 01:22:03,880 --> 01:22:06,120 Speaker 1: who is a huge presence in this locker room with 1693 01:22:06,240 --> 01:22:08,720 Speaker 1: his many new faces and as many rookies that you 1694 01:22:08,840 --> 01:22:11,800 Speaker 1: see playing on the field, for him to be able 1695 01:22:11,840 --> 01:22:14,080 Speaker 1: to say that, I completely agree with it. Why why 1696 01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:16,760 Speaker 1: it's a win in five weeks. They're not going to 1697 01:22:16,840 --> 01:22:18,519 Speaker 1: look back and be like, oh, do you remember the 1698 01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:21,679 Speaker 1: Redskins game when in the first half you know it's 1699 01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:24,600 Speaker 1: it counts as a win. So and that's what this 1700 01:22:24,720 --> 01:22:26,960 Speaker 1: team needs to keep pushing to get into the playoffs, 1701 01:22:27,000 --> 01:22:30,760 Speaker 1: which is very much so um you know, down the 1702 01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:32,840 Speaker 1: road for this team. No, I don't know about that quote. 1703 01:22:33,400 --> 01:22:35,600 Speaker 1: What the question was. I would love to know what 1704 01:22:35,680 --> 01:22:37,760 Speaker 1: the question. Yeah, I'm sure I have a sense of 1705 01:22:37,800 --> 01:22:39,400 Speaker 1: what it might have been. And I love the way 1706 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:42,840 Speaker 1: Micah Hyde responded, I'm I'm done apologizing for ugly wins. 1707 01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:44,080 Speaker 1: He said, were you were you there for that? I 1708 01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:45,880 Speaker 1: was not there for that one. I was I might 1709 01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:48,000 Speaker 1: have been down by the in the post game. Love 1710 01:22:48,040 --> 01:22:50,400 Speaker 1: to know what the question was the collector what got 1711 01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:54,240 Speaker 1: that response because somebody was somebody was probably nitpicking something that. Yeah, 1712 01:22:54,280 --> 01:22:56,840 Speaker 1: they came up, whether it was the run defense in 1713 01:22:56,920 --> 01:22:59,439 Speaker 1: the first half, it was probably something related to that. Yeah, 1714 01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:01,560 Speaker 1: and he said, I'm not apologizing for ugly wins. It 1715 01:23:01,640 --> 01:23:04,120 Speaker 1: good for him. Best game photo from yesterday This is 1716 01:23:04,320 --> 01:23:07,320 Speaker 1: especially for our for our fans watching on MSG. What 1717 01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:10,960 Speaker 1: do you have? Cole Beasley his third touchdown reception in 1718 01:23:11,040 --> 01:23:14,400 Speaker 1: a row, three games, three touchdowns. He had this great 1719 01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:21,120 Speaker 1: jump into the stands. Amazing because he is just consumed 1720 01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:24,200 Speaker 1: by these Buffalo Bills fans. This kid has like an 1721 01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:28,080 Speaker 1: elbow in his face and Cole is just you can 1722 01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:30,519 Speaker 1: barely see him. It's hilarious. There's that is mom next 1723 01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:32,160 Speaker 1: to him. It looks like she's trying to feed him 1724 01:23:32,200 --> 01:23:34,880 Speaker 1: something like yeah, here, I got an extra great you 1725 01:23:34,960 --> 01:23:38,599 Speaker 1: know on that like the arms all over him, hands 1726 01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:40,880 Speaker 1: all over him. But it looks like he is absolutely 1727 01:23:40,960 --> 01:23:43,360 Speaker 1: loving it. You know, you watch it on video and 1728 01:23:43,560 --> 01:23:45,640 Speaker 1: I'd watched the game over this morning and tape and 1729 01:23:46,479 --> 01:23:48,760 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley jumped into the stands and he was happy 1730 01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:51,479 Speaker 1: to be there. But there's very quickly, a look on 1731 01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:55,840 Speaker 1: his face like I gotta get out of here. I 1732 01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 1: can't see what he's And he's not a big guy, no, 1733 01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:00,840 Speaker 1: so like he can get man handled pretty easy in there. 1734 01:24:00,840 --> 01:24:03,200 Speaker 1: And that's see if humanity. Yeah, all right, let's moving 1735 01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:04,880 Speaker 1: around the league. I guess, Maddie, you got the best 1736 01:24:04,880 --> 01:24:09,160 Speaker 1: Week nine celebration. Yeah. So the Panthers hosted twenty one 1737 01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:13,080 Speaker 1: kids with pediatric cancer to their games. So they made 1738 01:24:13,120 --> 01:24:15,680 Speaker 1: it a thing to go ahead and wave to all 1739 01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:18,000 Speaker 1: those kids in games. So I thought that was pretty cool. 1740 01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:20,080 Speaker 1: It's pretty cool. Yeah, I love to see it. So 1741 01:24:20,160 --> 01:24:23,080 Speaker 1: they hosted them out at practice, I believe, and then 1742 01:24:23,200 --> 01:24:26,120 Speaker 1: during the game they all wave to them in the stands. 1743 01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:29,400 Speaker 1: Contrivera is big on that stuff. He's like really really 1744 01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:31,720 Speaker 1: into that community kind of stuff in the outreach. So 1745 01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:33,760 Speaker 1: good on them. Yeah, and we've got a lot of 1746 01:24:33,800 --> 01:24:36,439 Speaker 1: guys on our team too that Yeah, take the time too. 1747 01:24:36,720 --> 01:24:40,439 Speaker 1: Here's the way the hospital, Yeah, that's cool. You know 1748 01:24:40,520 --> 01:24:44,120 Speaker 1: who does that in the college ranks. University of Okiowa 1749 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:46,479 Speaker 1: does that everything. They have the hospital in the building 1750 01:24:46,560 --> 01:24:49,400 Speaker 1: right behind the stadium. Crazy and right before kickoff, right, 1751 01:24:49,479 --> 01:24:50,920 Speaker 1: is that what they do? They all turn around you're 1752 01:24:51,040 --> 01:24:53,840 Speaker 1: you're the college expert here. So they all turn around, right, 1753 01:24:53,880 --> 01:24:56,240 Speaker 1: all turn around and wave. And they did a College 1754 01:24:56,280 --> 01:24:58,400 Speaker 1: Game Day story on it last year, I believe, and 1755 01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:02,880 Speaker 1: of course I was in tears watching it. It's sweet, 1756 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:05,080 Speaker 1: It's it's pretty cool. You got sixty thousand people turning 1757 01:25:05,080 --> 01:25:07,040 Speaker 1: around and waving, a bunch of kids who are waving 1758 01:25:07,080 --> 01:25:09,760 Speaker 1: from their hospital windows. It's really cool. Mandy glab is 1759 01:25:09,800 --> 01:25:12,599 Speaker 1: with us with the Mandy Awards. The best win we're 1760 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:14,519 Speaker 1: midseason though, the best win this week? What do you have? 1761 01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:19,200 Speaker 1: Ravens over the Patriots thirty seven to twenty final score. 1762 01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:26,040 Speaker 1: The Ravens led the entire game. Tom Brady through an interception. 1763 01:25:26,120 --> 01:25:29,559 Speaker 1: He has now thrown five interceptions in his last six games, 1764 01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:32,920 Speaker 1: which is crazy. That stat began with the game against 1765 01:25:32,960 --> 01:25:35,879 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Yeah, so he didn't throw an interception 1766 01:25:35,920 --> 01:25:39,439 Speaker 1: in the Cleveland Browns game. But you are seeing this 1767 01:25:40,040 --> 01:25:44,240 Speaker 1: Ravens team that controlled it from the offense and the defense. 1768 01:25:44,320 --> 01:25:47,320 Speaker 1: They were able to not necessarily shut down the Patriots, 1769 01:25:47,439 --> 01:25:50,120 Speaker 1: but they kind of flipped the script. The Patriots are 1770 01:25:50,200 --> 01:25:52,560 Speaker 1: known for capitalizing off of mistakes, and that's what the 1771 01:25:53,160 --> 01:25:57,000 Speaker 1: Ravens did to the Patriots. Last night. I was just 1772 01:25:57,120 --> 01:26:01,120 Speaker 1: really happy that the Ravens finn that game because it 1773 01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:02,760 Speaker 1: was it looked like it was going to be a 1774 01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:06,000 Speaker 1: blowout early. Then they had a couple of turnovers and 1775 01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:08,120 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it was seventeen thirteen and a 1776 01:26:08,160 --> 01:26:10,000 Speaker 1: half time and I'm like, oh, son of a gun, 1777 01:26:10,160 --> 01:26:12,479 Speaker 1: like you know what I mean. And to finish the 1778 01:26:12,560 --> 01:26:14,840 Speaker 1: game in the fashion that they did was was really 1779 01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:16,799 Speaker 1: good to see. It was nice to see the Patriots 1780 01:26:16,840 --> 01:26:19,120 Speaker 1: obviously on the wrong side of the ledger, so I 1781 01:26:19,240 --> 01:26:21,040 Speaker 1: was happy to see that. But at the same time, 1782 01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:24,120 Speaker 1: now I'm a little bit we get I'm a little 1783 01:26:24,120 --> 01:26:26,400 Speaker 1: bit I'm a little bit leery of this Ravens team. 1784 01:26:26,439 --> 01:26:27,960 Speaker 1: No one the Bills have him on the schedule. That 1785 01:26:28,120 --> 01:26:30,040 Speaker 1: is not going to be an easy game at all. 1786 01:26:30,400 --> 01:26:33,080 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson two rushing touchdowns, one in the air. He 1787 01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:38,080 Speaker 1: had a great game. So yeah, it wills the Ravens 1788 01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:41,439 Speaker 1: at mid season. And I'm gonna I'm gonna credit one 1789 01:26:41,479 --> 01:26:43,280 Speaker 1: of our people on the other side of the wall here, 1790 01:26:44,040 --> 01:26:47,760 Speaker 1: Jeff Colton.

Oh no, that's 1816 01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:20,080 Speaker 1: not our Twitter Twitter ball, our twitterfold of the bills 1817 01:28:20,080 --> 01:28:22,920 Speaker 1: get enough credit for being six and two. Let's take 1818 01:28:22,920 --> 01:28:24,519 Speaker 1: a couple of phone calls as we work our way 1819 01:28:24,520 --> 01:28:27,120 Speaker 1: to the top of the hour. David Florida, Hello, Dave, welcome, 1820 01:28:27,920 --> 01:28:30,719 Speaker 1: Hey mother, if are you doing? Chris all right? Afternoon? 1821 01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:33,400 Speaker 1: All right? Yeah, I'm doing all right. I'd like to 1822 01:28:33,439 --> 01:28:37,439 Speaker 1: think that they're getting the credit they deserve, and I 1823 01:28:37,479 --> 01:28:40,000 Speaker 1: don't think they should go overboard with it. I think 1824 01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:42,599 Speaker 1: we've got to stick. I'd like their offensive game scheam 1825 01:28:42,920 --> 01:28:47,640 Speaker 1: that they developed last week yesterday, and I like the 1826 01:28:47,760 --> 01:28:55,000 Speaker 1: defensive scheme we get shut down ap I just think 1827 01:28:55,920 --> 01:29:01,080 Speaker 1: go back to you know, thesy over in the middle, singletaries, 1828 01:29:01,080 --> 01:29:03,599 Speaker 1: you're boy now, But now Cleveland's will be looking for him, 1829 01:29:03,880 --> 01:29:05,880 Speaker 1: so we had to go back to Gore. I don't 1830 01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:08,160 Speaker 1: know about that. I don't Chris. I think you'd disagree 1831 01:29:08,160 --> 01:29:10,360 Speaker 1: with that too, right as you mentioned you expect Devin 1832 01:29:10,439 --> 01:29:13,320 Speaker 1: Singletary is going to have a major ruled up. Yeah, 1833 01:29:13,400 --> 01:29:16,320 Speaker 1: and even in the even in the philosophical approach of 1834 01:29:16,400 --> 01:29:18,599 Speaker 1: coach McDermott that you have to earn it, he earned 1835 01:29:18,640 --> 01:29:20,519 Speaker 1: it this week. I don't I don't care if that's 1836 01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:23,320 Speaker 1: the twenty eighth ranked run defense that they went against yesterday, 1837 01:29:23,400 --> 01:29:25,760 Speaker 1: which it was, and that they were giving up one 1838 01:29:25,840 --> 01:29:28,400 Speaker 1: hundred and forty on the ground. He was productive the 1839 01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:31,000 Speaker 1: Bills as a whole. As an offense, we're productive on 1840 01:29:31,120 --> 01:29:33,639 Speaker 1: first down. I mean this is their first eight carries 1841 01:29:34,280 --> 01:29:37,639 Speaker 1: of the game on first down. Okay, first eight carries 1842 01:29:37,680 --> 01:29:42,240 Speaker 1: at the game plus four plus seventeen plus two plus 1843 01:29:42,360 --> 01:29:47,120 Speaker 1: four plus six plus nine plus four plus six. I 1844 01:29:47,200 --> 01:29:51,160 Speaker 1: mean that's pretty good. And that keeps you on schedule 1845 01:29:51,200 --> 01:29:52,880 Speaker 1: as an offense when you can run the ball on 1846 01:29:53,000 --> 01:29:55,799 Speaker 1: first down. Now, look, they're going against the Browns defense 1847 01:29:56,280 --> 01:29:59,639 Speaker 1: that has had its share of problems, and they're thirtieth 1848 01:29:59,640 --> 01:30:03,200 Speaker 1: against a run. So I'm all for given Singletary just 1849 01:30:03,320 --> 01:30:05,639 Speaker 1: as many touches this week as he had last week. 1850 01:30:06,120 --> 01:30:10,160 Speaker 1: Let's rive the motor up again. Let's roll hey on 1851 01:30:10,360 --> 01:30:12,160 Speaker 1: Twitter and answer to our question, do the Bills get 1852 01:30:12,280 --> 01:30:14,400 Speaker 1: enough credit for their six and two start. Got a 1853 01:30:14,439 --> 01:30:17,080 Speaker 1: couple of entries from the tweet sheet brought to you 1854 01:30:17,160 --> 01:30:20,160 Speaker 1: by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official movers of the Buffalo Bills. 1855 01:30:20,479 --> 01:30:23,280 Speaker 1: Bills fan three sixty five tweets this and no, they're 1856 01:30:23,280 --> 01:30:25,760 Speaker 1: not getting enough credit. There are so many unhappy Bills 1857 01:30:25,840 --> 01:30:28,640 Speaker 1: fans and radio hosts at local stations that if you 1858 01:30:28,680 --> 01:30:30,360 Speaker 1: didn't know better, you would think this team was worse 1859 01:30:30,400 --> 01:30:33,280 Speaker 1: than the Jets. It's not forget the schedule for a moment. 1860 01:30:33,320 --> 01:30:35,439 Speaker 1: Only seven teams in the NFL have two or fewer 1861 01:30:35,520 --> 01:30:38,840 Speaker 1: losses Go Bills and one more from John. Six and 1862 01:30:38,880 --> 01:30:41,120 Speaker 1: two is an incredible start. I'm going to enjoy this. 1863 01:30:41,240 --> 01:30:43,080 Speaker 1: It's been two and a half decade since we were 1864 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:46,240 Speaker 1: positioned like this in the AFC. I understand and respect 1865 01:30:46,280 --> 01:30:48,479 Speaker 1: the concerns of others. We also have are on ten 1866 01:30:48,560 --> 01:30:50,680 Speaker 1: draft picks and close to ninety million dollars in camp 1867 01:30:50,720 --> 01:30:52,559 Speaker 1: space at the end of the year. There's a long 1868 01:30:52,640 --> 01:30:57,200 Speaker 1: term view both of those Twitter respondents, so saying essentially, relax, 1869 01:30:57,479 --> 01:31:00,360 Speaker 1: enjoy it. There's six and two. We are what do 1870 01:31:00,479 --> 01:31:02,320 Speaker 1: we talk about them all all week long year on 1871 01:31:02,439 --> 01:31:04,240 Speaker 1: this show. Yes, they got to be better. Against the 1872 01:31:04,320 --> 01:31:06,160 Speaker 1: run than I m in the last two weeks. Yes, 1873 01:31:06,320 --> 01:31:08,360 Speaker 1: they got to be better short yardage down near the 1874 01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:11,200 Speaker 1: goal line than they were yesterday. Get all that, see 1875 01:31:11,240 --> 01:31:13,720 Speaker 1: all that, and yet here they are six and two. Yeah, 1876 01:31:13,880 --> 01:31:16,880 Speaker 1: and you know, Dave the caller, he's fine. Given him 1877 01:31:16,920 --> 01:31:19,840 Speaker 1: more credit. It sounded like his was more measured credit. 1878 01:31:20,160 --> 01:31:23,639 Speaker 1: Don't go overboard, and nobody's asking anybody to go overboard. 1879 01:31:23,680 --> 01:31:26,040 Speaker 1: It's just like, hey, Steams won six of their first 1880 01:31:26,080 --> 01:31:27,880 Speaker 1: day games. That's pretty darn good in this league because 1881 01:31:27,920 --> 01:31:29,720 Speaker 1: it's hard to do no matter what your schedule is. 1882 01:31:29,800 --> 01:31:32,320 Speaker 1: And you know, you can argue till the sun comes down, 1883 01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:34,760 Speaker 1: till the sun goes down, you know. As to the 1884 01:31:35,640 --> 01:31:39,519 Speaker 1: validity of their victories, nobody's measuring the validity of their victories. 1885 01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:42,200 Speaker 1: They're just measuring w's and l's and they've got six 1886 01:31:42,280 --> 01:31:44,920 Speaker 1: of them. So whatever good hour coming up, We're gonna 1887 01:31:44,960 --> 01:31:47,639 Speaker 1: talk with Dan Orlovski from ESPN about the Bills, about 1888 01:31:47,680 --> 01:31:49,519 Speaker 1: their offense, and about the rest of the NFL.

We've talked to you a lot 1947 01:34:42,160 --> 01:34:45,000 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years about Josh Allen, and 1948 01:34:45,120 --> 01:34:47,080 Speaker 1: I wonder what your latest assessment is now with the 1949 01:34:47,120 --> 01:34:50,720 Speaker 1: Buffalo quarterback, including yesterday's performance against Washington. What did you see? 1950 01:34:50,760 --> 01:34:53,720 Speaker 1: What did you think? I think the biggest thing that 1951 01:34:54,400 --> 01:34:58,320 Speaker 1: is showing up Josh's game is there's much more consistency there. 1952 01:34:58,720 --> 01:35:01,680 Speaker 1: He's playing a much more assistant brand of football, and 1953 01:35:01,760 --> 01:35:05,040 Speaker 1: he's doing a nice job of not trying to be 1954 01:35:05,160 --> 01:35:07,400 Speaker 1: the hero all the time. You know, he's that that 1955 01:35:07,560 --> 01:35:10,280 Speaker 1: was something that early on in his career, he was 1956 01:35:10,320 --> 01:35:14,000 Speaker 1: always trying to make a wild play, and you saw 1957 01:35:14,040 --> 01:35:16,280 Speaker 1: it a little bit on the back end of last 1958 01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:19,920 Speaker 1: year and certainly through this first eight game stretch to start, 1959 01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:24,000 Speaker 1: he's just he's I often use this turn like there's 1960 01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:26,160 Speaker 1: a little bit of boring football that he plays, and 1961 01:35:26,240 --> 01:35:29,840 Speaker 1: it's a complimentary boring football like I always used to 1962 01:35:29,920 --> 01:35:33,200 Speaker 1: talk about Peyton Manning or you know, Aaron Rodgers or 1963 01:35:33,200 --> 01:35:35,639 Speaker 1: Brady that you don't need to less necessarily see their 1964 01:35:35,720 --> 01:35:37,519 Speaker 1: game to know what the Fox score is going to 1965 01:35:37,560 --> 01:35:39,479 Speaker 1: look like. And Josh is doing a nice job of 1966 01:35:40,120 --> 01:35:43,880 Speaker 1: when the plays are there, making those plays, not missing 1967 01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:46,920 Speaker 1: those plays, making those plays. And then there's a handful 1968 01:35:46,960 --> 01:35:49,439 Speaker 1: of plays a game that he has that he's in 1969 01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:52,800 Speaker 1: that top you know, I don't know half dozen to 1970 01:35:52,880 --> 01:35:56,080 Speaker 1: a dozen guys that can make those plays in the league. 1971 01:35:56,120 --> 01:35:57,600 Speaker 1: You know that that play that he makes when he 1972 01:35:57,640 --> 01:36:00,760 Speaker 1: breaks the pocket yesterday kind of peak against the cover 1973 01:36:00,880 --> 01:36:02,800 Speaker 1: too safety, pulls them back to the middle of field 1974 01:36:02,800 --> 01:36:05,120 Speaker 1: and throws an absolute rope on the sideline to John 1975 01:36:05,200 --> 01:36:08,320 Speaker 1: Brown was a really good play. So I'm really good 1976 01:36:08,400 --> 01:36:10,920 Speaker 1: football right now. I actually think Dabele's do a nice 1977 01:36:11,040 --> 01:36:14,360 Speaker 1: job play calling wise and utilizing the run game in 1978 01:36:14,439 --> 01:36:18,240 Speaker 1: some play action game. And Josh, the greatest thing that 1979 01:36:18,320 --> 01:36:20,880 Speaker 1: ever happened to Josh right now is Cole Beasley. The 1980 01:36:20,960 --> 01:36:23,880 Speaker 1: way he talks to Josh with his route running. There's 1981 01:36:23,880 --> 01:36:25,880 Speaker 1: a lot of good in his quarterback play right now. 1982 01:36:26,240 --> 01:36:29,800 Speaker 1: You mentioned Dabele Dan, and you know there have been 1983 01:36:29,920 --> 01:36:33,280 Speaker 1: times this year where he's vary the personnel groupings a 1984 01:36:33,320 --> 01:36:36,439 Speaker 1: lot on the first two drives and gone in that direction. 1985 01:36:36,600 --> 01:36:40,240 Speaker 1: Yesterday for the first two drives he stays almost exclusively 1986 01:36:40,360 --> 01:36:44,040 Speaker 1: in eleven personnel, but a ton of pre snap motion 1987 01:36:44,880 --> 01:36:47,200 Speaker 1: I guess to change the look, so to speak. And 1988 01:36:47,600 --> 01:36:49,960 Speaker 1: it proved to be very successful for them when it 1989 01:36:50,040 --> 01:36:54,240 Speaker 1: came to first down rushes, because they were They were 1990 01:36:54,320 --> 01:36:58,080 Speaker 1: eight for fifty two in terms of rushes on first down, 1991 01:36:58,200 --> 01:37:01,000 Speaker 1: and it really kept them on schedule. Can you just 1992 01:37:01,160 --> 01:37:04,320 Speaker 1: kind of outline for the layman, even if you stay 1993 01:37:04,360 --> 01:37:08,240 Speaker 1: in the same personnel grouping, if you just window dress, 1994 01:37:08,400 --> 01:37:12,080 Speaker 1: how effective that can be. Yeah, So, first of all, 1995 01:37:12,240 --> 01:37:14,040 Speaker 1: I think it was like the first six plays in 1996 01:37:14,080 --> 01:37:16,960 Speaker 1: a row of the game he went with a jet motion. Yeah, 1997 01:37:17,400 --> 01:37:20,800 Speaker 1: And so you know, personnel obviously matters, and sometimes it's 1998 01:37:20,840 --> 01:37:23,280 Speaker 1: who you are, and sometimes it's who you're playing against. 1999 01:37:23,360 --> 01:37:26,920 Speaker 1: Playing against the Redskins, an eleven personnel is a better 2000 01:37:27,080 --> 01:37:29,839 Speaker 1: situation because it gets them out of their face defense 2001 01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:32,599 Speaker 1: and then it gets one more big body of their 2002 01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:34,960 Speaker 1: defensive line off the field. So that's why you want 2003 01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:37,640 Speaker 1: to play an eleven personnel. So let's talk about the 2004 01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:40,160 Speaker 1: jet motion, right. So the jet motion can be used 2005 01:37:40,200 --> 01:37:43,160 Speaker 1: in two different ways. Really, if you're looking at as 2006 01:37:43,160 --> 01:37:47,280 Speaker 1: a play car one, it is something that it is 2007 01:37:47,560 --> 01:37:49,519 Speaker 1: a version of a counter where you can get a 2008 01:37:49,640 --> 01:37:53,880 Speaker 1: defense flowing one way and then counter back the other way. 2009 01:37:53,920 --> 01:37:56,839 Speaker 1: I think there was probably at least three times yesterday 2010 01:37:56,880 --> 01:38:00,200 Speaker 1: where they get a jet motion streaking across the line 2011 01:38:00,200 --> 01:38:03,200 Speaker 1: of scrimmage and you never stop that motion. You snap 2012 01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:06,640 Speaker 1: that ball right when essentially passes the football, and that 2013 01:38:06,920 --> 01:38:10,280 Speaker 1: naturally is giving something for those defenders to look at. 2014 01:38:10,439 --> 01:38:12,920 Speaker 1: And if I'm a defender and there's a guy coming 2015 01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:15,800 Speaker 1: from my right and streaking across and a jet motion 2016 01:38:15,880 --> 01:38:18,360 Speaker 1: going to the left and the ball gets snapped right 2017 01:38:18,400 --> 01:38:20,720 Speaker 1: when he's on the quarterback, well there's a chance that 2018 01:38:20,800 --> 01:38:23,719 Speaker 1: he had the ball, and so I could be naturally 2019 01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:26,880 Speaker 1: you are going to drift or take a step going 2020 01:38:27,000 --> 01:38:29,080 Speaker 1: that way. And then what they did was they would 2021 01:38:29,080 --> 01:38:30,720 Speaker 1: flash fake it to him and they would give a 2022 01:38:30,800 --> 01:38:35,759 Speaker 1: little pitch out, so sancitary almost essentially like a counter. 2023 01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:39,000 Speaker 1: And so just that hesitation of a step not only 2024 01:38:39,080 --> 01:38:41,840 Speaker 1: gets you going from away from the football, but it 2025 01:38:41,920 --> 01:38:44,639 Speaker 1: helps the angles of the offensive line. The second way 2026 01:38:44,720 --> 01:38:47,360 Speaker 1: that it helps is and really this is where it's 2027 01:38:47,439 --> 01:38:50,920 Speaker 1: come from college, is the jet motion allows you to 2028 01:38:51,040 --> 01:38:54,840 Speaker 1: stretch people horizontally and vertically at the same time. The 2029 01:38:55,000 --> 01:38:57,280 Speaker 1: same theory of it, that jet motion is coming and 2030 01:38:57,360 --> 01:39:00,519 Speaker 1: I stepped that way. Now the whole that I can 2031 01:39:00,600 --> 01:39:03,960 Speaker 1: create in my run game because I've already moved laterally, 2032 01:39:04,080 --> 01:39:07,760 Speaker 1: I've moved towards the sideline, The whole of the run 2033 01:39:07,880 --> 01:39:11,920 Speaker 1: game is going to be bigger because the running game 2034 01:39:12,000 --> 01:39:14,720 Speaker 1: is a vertical run game, and this motion stretches me, 2035 01:39:14,800 --> 01:39:17,200 Speaker 1: so I'm moving to my left, but the run is 2036 01:39:17,240 --> 01:39:20,040 Speaker 1: coming at me. And so that's really two ways run 2037 01:39:20,120 --> 01:39:22,240 Speaker 1: game wise where the jet motion is so big. And 2038 01:39:22,360 --> 01:39:24,720 Speaker 1: then the jet motion has been a fundamental part of 2039 01:39:24,760 --> 01:39:27,400 Speaker 1: Buffalo's offense to the first half season, and they look 2040 01:39:27,400 --> 01:39:29,120 Speaker 1: around the league and more teams are doing it. It's 2041 01:39:29,160 --> 01:39:31,600 Speaker 1: kind of I'm not saying it's a fan or but 2042 01:39:31,720 --> 01:39:34,560 Speaker 1: it seems like it's a trend anyway. Huh yeah. I 2043 01:39:34,600 --> 01:39:37,640 Speaker 1: mean we see like something every year come in right, 2044 01:39:37,800 --> 01:39:40,679 Speaker 1: like three years ago or two years ago was the RPO. 2045 01:39:42,080 --> 01:39:44,719 Speaker 1: Last year a little bit more of the jet motion 2046 01:39:44,800 --> 01:39:46,840 Speaker 1: with the Play Action Pass game, And we're starting to 2047 01:39:46,880 --> 01:39:49,439 Speaker 1: see more teams use the jet motion with their run game. 2048 01:39:49,960 --> 01:39:52,680 Speaker 1: And so you know, everyone knows that teams watch the 2049 01:39:52,760 --> 01:39:55,439 Speaker 1: same tape, and if you're watching tape and something works 2050 01:39:55,439 --> 01:39:57,880 Speaker 1: against an opponent you're playing, it would be silly not 2051 01:39:58,040 --> 01:40:00,599 Speaker 1: to try to kind of put that to your game 2052 01:40:00,680 --> 01:40:03,880 Speaker 1: plan to make sure that defense has fixed and made 2053 01:40:03,920 --> 01:40:06,160 Speaker 1: some corrections to stop it. But it's it's a good 2054 01:40:06,840 --> 01:40:09,080 Speaker 1: and it's a smart thing to have in your offense. 2055 01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:10,960 Speaker 1: You don't want to be too reliant on it because 2056 01:40:11,520 --> 01:40:13,320 Speaker 1: you still want to use it as a weapon. You 2057 01:40:13,360 --> 01:40:15,519 Speaker 1: don't want it to be something where defense is stopped 2058 01:40:15,520 --> 01:40:19,200 Speaker 1: paying respect and attention to it. So you have to 2059 01:40:19,240 --> 01:40:21,160 Speaker 1: have enough use for it where you will hand it 2060 01:40:21,240 --> 01:40:23,519 Speaker 1: off to that jet motion guy and you will run 2061 01:40:23,640 --> 01:40:25,360 Speaker 1: that way of the jet motion, and then you will 2062 01:40:25,479 --> 01:40:28,799 Speaker 1: run opposite of the jet motion. And then obviously utilizing 2063 01:40:28,840 --> 01:40:30,560 Speaker 1: in your play action game is a big part of 2064 01:40:30,600 --> 01:40:32,680 Speaker 1: it as well, So you got to make sure you're 2065 01:40:32,720 --> 01:40:34,880 Speaker 1: not only using it, but using it at the right 2066 01:40:35,040 --> 01:40:38,800 Speaker 1: ratio and the right time. Bills were again successful in 2067 01:40:38,840 --> 01:40:40,519 Speaker 1: the red zone. I know they haven't been down there 2068 01:40:40,520 --> 01:40:42,320 Speaker 1: a lot, but they've been successful when they have been. 2069 01:40:42,439 --> 01:40:44,280 Speaker 1: I think they lead the league in red zone touchdown 2070 01:40:44,320 --> 01:40:48,040 Speaker 1: percentage three or four. Yesterday, they had a bit of 2071 01:40:48,240 --> 01:40:51,479 Speaker 1: a tough time with first and goal at the one. 2072 01:40:51,600 --> 01:40:53,760 Speaker 1: They had twenty three personnel on the field, ran the 2073 01:40:53,840 --> 01:40:57,080 Speaker 1: same play three times, got nothing before Josh got it 2074 01:40:57,120 --> 01:41:00,280 Speaker 1: in on fourth down. My question to you, Dan is this, 2075 01:41:01,000 --> 01:41:04,240 Speaker 1: and I'm not looking to criticize Dable here, I'm just 2076 01:41:04,320 --> 01:41:06,479 Speaker 1: looking at trying to look at this play in a 2077 01:41:06,600 --> 01:41:10,320 Speaker 1: different way. When you have an athlete like Josh Allen 2078 01:41:10,360 --> 01:41:14,760 Speaker 1: at quarterback and an elusive slippery back like Devin Singletary 2079 01:41:14,920 --> 01:41:20,679 Speaker 1: at tailback. Are there enough benefits to spreading the field 2080 01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:24,720 Speaker 1: in that situation and going four by one to give 2081 01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:29,280 Speaker 1: you know, Josh and or Devin more space and alleys 2082 01:41:29,320 --> 01:41:32,959 Speaker 1: to exploit down there rather than cramming nine ten defenders 2083 01:41:33,000 --> 01:41:36,759 Speaker 1: in the box and just mashing heads. Yeah, I've always 2084 01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:39,200 Speaker 1: thought of that way. I learned that from Gary Kubiak, 2085 01:41:39,400 --> 01:41:42,240 Speaker 1: you know, I was always I always learned and I'm 2086 01:41:42,360 --> 01:41:44,679 Speaker 1: a believer that if you're down on the goal line, 2087 01:41:44,680 --> 01:41:48,000 Speaker 1: you get into big personnel and shrink down the throw 2088 01:41:48,320 --> 01:41:51,160 Speaker 1: and you spread out to run and you can do 2089 01:41:51,280 --> 01:41:53,880 Speaker 1: it no matter the personnel. I mean, I love teams 2090 01:41:53,920 --> 01:41:56,479 Speaker 1: that will get into big personnel twenty three PERSONNELT two 2091 01:41:56,479 --> 01:41:58,400 Speaker 1: back three tight end and hopefully one of those tight 2092 01:41:58,560 --> 01:42:01,560 Speaker 1: ends is a good weapon in the past game and 2093 01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:05,120 Speaker 1: you break the huddle and you show that traditional everybody 2094 01:42:05,200 --> 01:42:08,160 Speaker 1: near the ball kind of formation and then you you 2095 01:42:08,320 --> 01:42:10,400 Speaker 1: kind of burst your formation out and it becomes a 2096 01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:14,320 Speaker 1: spread formation with big personnel groupings. I love doing that stuff. 2097 01:42:14,680 --> 01:42:16,479 Speaker 1: You know, the teams that are doing it best, this 2098 01:42:16,680 --> 01:42:19,599 Speaker 1: is what they do. They get into those jumbo personnel groups, 2099 01:42:20,120 --> 01:42:25,080 Speaker 1: and then they build in RPOs that beat man coverage. 2100 01:42:25,280 --> 01:42:28,519 Speaker 1: So you have an RPO with an athletic quarterback. But 2101 01:42:28,600 --> 01:42:31,560 Speaker 1: then you have a route or a quick you know, 2102 01:42:31,720 --> 01:42:34,280 Speaker 1: pick route or a rub route with two tight ends 2103 01:42:34,360 --> 01:42:37,240 Speaker 1: or a tight end and a back that is a 2104 01:42:37,439 --> 01:42:41,479 Speaker 1: man beating kind of pass concept because down there that's 2105 01:42:41,520 --> 01:42:45,440 Speaker 1: gonna get manned. So you give there's really three options 2106 01:42:46,160 --> 01:42:50,360 Speaker 1: to that one singular play call. So I like believing 2107 01:42:50,479 --> 01:42:53,000 Speaker 1: that get big to throw it and get little to 2108 01:42:53,160 --> 01:42:56,160 Speaker 1: run it. And with a guy like Josh who's doing 2109 01:42:56,200 --> 01:42:58,400 Speaker 1: a good job of being physical in the run game 2110 01:42:58,760 --> 01:43:03,000 Speaker 1: and making good decisions running the football, I like doing that. Now, listen, 2111 01:43:03,040 --> 01:43:06,320 Speaker 1: they three or four is pretty good. You know, Beasley's 2112 01:43:06,320 --> 01:43:08,840 Speaker 1: touchdown was great, the second quarter touchdown. I forget who 2113 01:43:08,880 --> 01:43:10,920 Speaker 1: was that too, with like seven minutes to go in 2114 01:43:10,960 --> 01:43:14,840 Speaker 1: the second quarter. It was Josh over the top, right, Yeah, 2115 01:43:14,920 --> 01:43:19,200 Speaker 1: that was Josh correct, And so really like, at the 2116 01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:21,080 Speaker 1: end of the day, three for four is pretty good. Yeah. 2117 01:43:21,520 --> 01:43:25,080 Speaker 1: Dana lasar Gas is a college football analysts and NFL 2118 01:43:25,120 --> 01:43:28,360 Speaker 1: analyst for ESPN. Former NFL quarterback whant to just take 2119 01:43:28,400 --> 01:43:30,360 Speaker 1: it around the league a little bit. Dan the Bills 2120 01:43:30,439 --> 01:43:32,200 Speaker 1: five weeks away from what could be a pretty good 2121 01:43:32,240 --> 01:43:35,400 Speaker 1: matchup with the Baltimore Ravens here in Orchard Park. What 2122 01:43:35,640 --> 01:43:38,240 Speaker 1: did the Ravens do to solve New England's great defense 2123 01:43:38,360 --> 01:43:40,880 Speaker 1: last night? And tell me what the deal is with 2124 01:43:41,040 --> 01:43:43,599 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Anybody got a way to stop this guy 2125 01:43:43,680 --> 01:43:46,200 Speaker 1: or slow him down at all? Yeah, So the first 2126 01:43:46,240 --> 01:43:48,360 Speaker 1: part of the question is New England has you know, 2127 01:43:48,520 --> 01:43:51,479 Speaker 1: kind of been revolutionary the first day weeks in the 2128 01:43:51,520 --> 01:43:53,920 Speaker 1: season because they stop you on first time, they get 2129 01:43:53,960 --> 01:43:56,439 Speaker 1: you into pass situations and that's one of those exotic 2130 01:43:56,960 --> 01:43:59,880 Speaker 1: the cover zero pressures that people remember with Sam Darnovan, 2131 01:43:59,920 --> 01:44:03,080 Speaker 1: the ghost coming. That's when they happen. And so if 2132 01:44:03,160 --> 01:44:06,320 Speaker 1: you can keep them out of second and long and 2133 01:44:06,439 --> 01:44:08,800 Speaker 1: third and longs, it's a it's a big benefit to you. Now, 2134 01:44:09,080 --> 01:44:12,120 Speaker 1: the Ravens are a little unique because this is why. 2135 01:44:12,720 --> 01:44:15,400 Speaker 1: One they've got a scheme. Then only one team in 2136 01:44:15,439 --> 01:44:18,439 Speaker 1: the NFL runs, and only one team NFL played, so 2137 01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:20,479 Speaker 1: it's hard to prepare for and then it's hard to 2138 01:44:20,520 --> 01:44:24,599 Speaker 1: play against. Two. They have personnel that only one team 2139 01:44:24,640 --> 01:44:26,960 Speaker 1: in the NFL really like. They've got three tight ends 2140 01:44:27,360 --> 01:44:30,839 Speaker 1: that can all block equally good and be pass catchers. 2141 01:44:31,280 --> 01:44:33,559 Speaker 1: Equally good. That's hard to prepare for, and then it's 2142 01:44:33,560 --> 01:44:35,919 Speaker 1: hard to play against. And then they have a quarterback 2143 01:44:35,960 --> 01:44:37,599 Speaker 1: that there's only one team in the NFL that has 2144 01:44:37,600 --> 01:44:39,920 Speaker 1: a quarterback like that, and so they're really hard to 2145 01:44:39,960 --> 01:44:41,760 Speaker 1: prepare for and then really hard to play against when 2146 01:44:41,800 --> 01:44:45,439 Speaker 1: you have those three things stacked up against you. And 2147 01:44:45,520 --> 01:44:47,920 Speaker 1: then you know, Baltimore just played with three tight ends 2148 01:44:48,120 --> 01:44:51,120 Speaker 1: and ran the ball and got New England to play 2149 01:44:51,200 --> 01:44:55,160 Speaker 1: with bass personnel and base scheme, which is not something 2150 01:44:55,240 --> 01:44:58,800 Speaker 1: that New England kinda is built this season upon. And 2151 01:44:59,080 --> 01:45:01,920 Speaker 1: Lamar was outstanding, the run game was outstanding, and they 2152 01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:04,920 Speaker 1: controlled I mean that game got twenty four to twenty 2153 01:45:05,040 --> 01:45:08,719 Speaker 1: and they went on back to back thirteen and fourteen 2154 01:45:08,800 --> 01:45:12,280 Speaker 1: play drives that went like seventeen or eighteen minutes in 2155 01:45:12,360 --> 01:45:14,960 Speaker 1: both score touchdowns. So so even though that you know, 2156 01:45:15,320 --> 01:45:16,920 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to touch you off, Dan, 2157 01:45:16,960 --> 01:45:19,200 Speaker 1: I was just gonna say so, as successful as they were, 2158 01:45:19,400 --> 01:45:22,479 Speaker 1: and knowing the copycat league this is, it's unlikely that 2159 01:45:22,600 --> 01:45:26,000 Speaker 1: many teams adopt this because they don't have the unique 2160 01:45:26,120 --> 01:45:28,080 Speaker 1: personnel that the Ravens have. Is that kind of what 2161 01:45:28,160 --> 01:45:30,880 Speaker 1: you're getting at here? Yeah, I don't think you're gonna see. 2162 01:45:31,840 --> 01:45:34,479 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody can can try and replicate it 2163 01:45:34,600 --> 01:45:37,439 Speaker 1: because you know, it's it's the same thing. I always say, 2164 01:45:37,560 --> 01:45:39,920 Speaker 1: do you have the scheme or just the coach just 2165 01:45:40,080 --> 01:45:41,920 Speaker 1: watch tape and try to copycat it, Like you gotta 2166 01:45:41,960 --> 01:45:44,840 Speaker 1: have the coach that knows the scheme, knows where and 2167 01:45:45,000 --> 01:45:47,680 Speaker 1: when called the plays and how they get installed. Then 2168 01:45:47,720 --> 01:45:49,920 Speaker 1: do you have the people to go and actually operate 2169 01:45:50,040 --> 01:45:52,639 Speaker 1: that scheme? And then do you have a video game 2170 01:45:53,200 --> 01:45:56,000 Speaker 1: you know, cheat code at quarterback? And that's the reality. 2171 01:45:56,120 --> 01:45:58,200 Speaker 1: So it'll be a big chal it's gonna be. It's 2172 01:45:58,200 --> 01:46:00,840 Speaker 1: a big challenge for anybody. The only people that are 2173 01:46:00,920 --> 01:46:04,639 Speaker 1: going to stop the Ravens offense is their offensive coordinator, 2174 01:46:04,680 --> 01:46:06,960 Speaker 1: Greg Roman or Lamar getting banged up. Other than that, 2175 01:46:07,040 --> 01:46:09,000 Speaker 1: you just got to try and slow them down. Craig 2176 01:46:09,040 --> 01:46:11,240 Speaker 1: doesn't get banged up. And I do think great Roman 2177 01:46:11,320 --> 01:46:13,920 Speaker 1: deserves some recognition here, right. I mean, he found a 2178 01:46:13,960 --> 01:46:18,519 Speaker 1: way to make Colin Kaepernick an effective Super Bowl competitive quarterback. 2179 01:46:18,760 --> 01:46:21,320 Speaker 1: He kind of did good work with Tyrod Taylor here 2180 01:46:21,360 --> 01:46:22,840 Speaker 1: for a little more than a year and now he's 2181 01:46:23,080 --> 01:46:25,879 Speaker 1: he's working the personnel there in Baltimore to his advantage. 2182 01:46:25,920 --> 01:46:30,000 Speaker 1: He deserves a lot of credit. I would think, huh heck, yeah, absolutely, 2183 01:46:30,080 --> 01:46:32,400 Speaker 1: he's one of the better offensive it's certainly in the 2184 01:46:32,520 --> 01:46:35,439 Speaker 1: run game mines in the NFL. Now here's here's the 2185 01:46:35,600 --> 01:46:39,120 Speaker 1: downside to it, because this is a reality. Is yes, 2186 01:46:39,400 --> 01:46:42,840 Speaker 1: when you play that style of football to three things. One, 2187 01:46:42,960 --> 01:46:46,360 Speaker 1: you cannot play from behind. You have to play from 2188 01:46:46,400 --> 01:46:49,000 Speaker 1: an you know, a relatively equal football game or in 2189 01:46:49,040 --> 01:46:52,560 Speaker 1: the lead. Two, you have to be really efficient with 2190 01:46:52,720 --> 01:46:57,000 Speaker 1: your possessions because yes, you're limiting the other team's possessions 2191 01:46:57,000 --> 01:46:59,439 Speaker 1: because you chew up the clock so much, but you're 2192 01:46:59,439 --> 01:47:02,040 Speaker 1: also in your own possessions because you chew up the 2193 01:47:02,120 --> 01:47:03,960 Speaker 1: clocks so much. So you've got to be really good. 2194 01:47:04,000 --> 01:47:06,600 Speaker 1: You can't go on eight play drives that go for 2195 01:47:06,720 --> 01:47:09,120 Speaker 1: six minutes and then punt at the forty five yard line, like, 2196 01:47:09,160 --> 01:47:11,600 Speaker 1: you've got to go and be really efficient with it 2197 01:47:11,720 --> 01:47:16,040 Speaker 1: as well. And then three, you if you're not good 2198 01:47:16,080 --> 01:47:18,640 Speaker 1: on first down as death, Like you can't play from 2199 01:47:18,720 --> 01:47:21,400 Speaker 1: second and ten because a good run play is going 2200 01:47:21,439 --> 01:47:24,000 Speaker 1: to be four or five yards And then you're still 2201 01:47:24,080 --> 01:47:26,479 Speaker 1: sitting at third and five. And no matter who he is, 2202 01:47:27,080 --> 01:47:31,439 Speaker 1: no quarterback is going to have consistent, sustained success living 2203 01:47:31,520 --> 01:47:35,479 Speaker 1: on thirty five bills. Have the Browns this week, Dan, 2204 01:47:35,640 --> 01:47:38,840 Speaker 1: And you know, the Browns humbling loss at home? I 2205 01:47:38,920 --> 01:47:41,160 Speaker 1: think brand What was that Brandon Allen's first start, right, Murph? 2206 01:47:41,240 --> 01:47:43,640 Speaker 1: So Brandon Allen's first start for the Broncos and he 2207 01:47:43,680 --> 01:47:46,920 Speaker 1: gets a road win at Cleveland, And you know, I 2208 01:47:47,040 --> 01:47:49,360 Speaker 1: know you're more about the exes and os. There seems 2209 01:47:49,400 --> 01:47:52,759 Speaker 1: to be some team culture issues too that are affecting 2210 01:47:52,800 --> 01:47:55,680 Speaker 1: the Browns. That doesn't certainly doesn't help. But from an 2211 01:47:55,720 --> 01:47:59,679 Speaker 1: EXS and O standpoint, Dan, is what is the missing 2212 01:48:00,040 --> 01:48:02,680 Speaker 1: ink there for them? Or is it something else? Is 2213 01:48:02,680 --> 01:48:05,040 Speaker 1: it not their offense, is it their defense, special teams, 2214 01:48:05,080 --> 01:48:07,640 Speaker 1: team culture? What do you see there? Yeah? I mean 2215 01:48:07,720 --> 01:48:13,760 Speaker 1: the easiest answer is everything. And I was I was 2216 01:48:13,800 --> 01:48:16,600 Speaker 1: a person who who was touting the Browns because of 2217 01:48:16,680 --> 01:48:19,839 Speaker 1: their talents. They are the best team in the NFL 2218 01:48:20,160 --> 01:48:24,400 Speaker 1: at beating themselves. I mean, they're on on pace two 2219 01:48:24,600 --> 01:48:27,120 Speaker 1: set the NFL record for penalties, and they've they've turned 2220 01:48:27,160 --> 01:48:30,280 Speaker 1: the ball over as much as anybody in the NFL. 2221 01:48:30,600 --> 01:48:32,479 Speaker 1: And then you go to yesterday's game, which is really 2222 01:48:32,520 --> 01:48:34,479 Speaker 1: a must win, and they don't have a ton of 2223 01:48:34,560 --> 01:48:37,040 Speaker 1: penalties and they don't turn the ball over, but they 2224 01:48:37,120 --> 01:48:39,240 Speaker 1: go one for five in the red zone, and it's 2225 01:48:39,280 --> 01:48:41,760 Speaker 1: because a little bit of execution. Like they got one 2226 01:48:41,800 --> 01:48:44,760 Speaker 1: of the best backs in football in Nick Chubb. Two 2227 01:48:44,880 --> 01:48:47,679 Speaker 1: times they got third downs in the second half. Once 2228 01:48:47,880 --> 01:48:50,040 Speaker 1: is a third and three and once it's a third 2229 01:48:50,080 --> 01:48:53,400 Speaker 1: and four. Both times the guys on the sideline. Now, listen, 2230 01:48:53,760 --> 01:48:57,519 Speaker 1: you can say what you want about me, and I've 2231 01:48:57,640 --> 01:49:00,280 Speaker 1: obviously made my mistakes as as a per on a 2232 01:49:00,360 --> 01:49:03,120 Speaker 1: football field, but there is no way in heck then 2233 01:49:03,160 --> 01:49:04,800 Speaker 1: I'm a two and five football team with one of 2234 01:49:04,840 --> 01:49:08,519 Speaker 1: the best rushers in the NFL, and that guy's gonna 2235 01:49:08,520 --> 01:49:10,519 Speaker 1: be on the sideline and a must win game on 2236 01:49:10,640 --> 01:49:13,200 Speaker 1: third down. And then they go to fourth down and 2237 01:49:13,280 --> 01:49:15,680 Speaker 1: he's on the sideline again. And then they go to 2238 01:49:15,760 --> 01:49:17,960 Speaker 1: fourth down near the end of the game, and they 2239 01:49:18,040 --> 01:49:20,599 Speaker 1: trade away a first round pick and the third round 2240 01:49:20,680 --> 01:49:23,040 Speaker 1: pick and two players for a guy named Odell Beckham 2241 01:49:23,080 --> 01:49:25,720 Speaker 1: who had six catches for eighty seven yards, and he 2242 01:49:26,520 --> 01:49:29,200 Speaker 1: had every he caught every ball thrown to him yesterday. 2243 01:49:29,400 --> 01:49:31,519 Speaker 1: And he's not the guy that plays dialed up for it. 2244 01:49:31,960 --> 01:49:37,679 Speaker 1: I mean, it's inexcusable, it's it's inexcusable. Football is hard, 2245 01:49:38,040 --> 01:49:40,439 Speaker 1: don't make it harder. Yeah, because I'm guessing I'm guessing 2246 01:49:40,479 --> 01:49:43,320 Speaker 1: you're seeing Beckham. He's still winning as much as he 2247 01:49:43,360 --> 01:49:45,320 Speaker 1: ever has on his routes, right, He's just not getting 2248 01:49:45,320 --> 01:49:49,120 Speaker 1: the ball. Absolutely, he was dominant yesterday. He ever just 2249 01:49:49,200 --> 01:49:51,360 Speaker 1: I think something like fourteen yards to catch and they 2250 01:49:51,400 --> 01:49:54,360 Speaker 1: were contested catches. He was good after the Cats. They 2251 01:49:54,439 --> 01:49:58,320 Speaker 1: just I'm listening. I've been on the field in that 2252 01:49:58,479 --> 01:50:01,040 Speaker 1: moment when with a guy like cal Levin Johnson or 2253 01:50:01,160 --> 01:50:04,200 Speaker 1: Andre Johnson or Reggie Wayne, and I've had the coach 2254 01:50:04,280 --> 01:50:07,880 Speaker 1: call play in and then finish it with you're going 2255 01:50:07,960 --> 01:50:09,800 Speaker 1: to do everything you can to throw that ball to 2256 01:50:10,040 --> 01:50:13,280 Speaker 1: that guy, like make sure that he gets double teams 2257 01:50:13,400 --> 01:50:16,160 Speaker 1: or triple teams to make sure they absolutely take them away. 2258 01:50:16,200 --> 01:50:20,760 Speaker 1: And so Odell is still plenty productive and plenty good. 2259 01:50:21,439 --> 01:50:25,000 Speaker 1: They're just out thinking themselves. They hurt themselves at the 2260 01:50:25,080 --> 01:50:27,400 Speaker 1: perfect moment and like I said, like they're the best 2261 01:50:27,439 --> 01:50:30,400 Speaker 1: team in the NFL when it comes to beating themselves. Hey, Dan, 2262 01:50:30,520 --> 01:50:32,720 Speaker 1: thanks for this love the way you think and we 2263 01:50:32,800 --> 01:50:35,439 Speaker 1: appreciate it. Thanks for making time for us today.

A special guests who spent 2301 01:52:30,840 --> 01:52:33,320 Speaker 1: the last two Sundays here in Orchard Park as a 2302 01:52:33,360 --> 01:52:36,200 Speaker 1: sideline reporter for the NFL on Fox. She did the 2303 01:52:36,240 --> 01:52:39,240 Speaker 1: Bills game these past two weeks. Eagles in Washington. She's 2304 01:52:39,280 --> 01:52:41,640 Speaker 1: the founder of galvani Is, a broadcast boot camp, and 2305 01:52:41,760 --> 01:52:44,120 Speaker 1: a communications coach. Happen to have Laura Oakland on the 2306 01:52:44,200 --> 01:52:46,280 Speaker 1: line with us. Laura, John Murphy, and Chris Brown up 2307 01:52:46,320 --> 01:52:48,240 Speaker 1: here in Buffalo. Thanks you coming on? Are you wearing 2308 01:52:48,280 --> 01:52:52,000 Speaker 1: Southern California? No, I'm actually natural. I'm going to say, 2309 01:52:52,040 --> 01:52:54,240 Speaker 1: I'm still in Buffalo, Like, I just feel like I 2310 01:52:54,479 --> 01:52:57,080 Speaker 1: should get another place there. It's been a really nice 2311 01:52:57,120 --> 01:53:00,720 Speaker 1: now you got used to the weather the last two 2312 01:53:00,760 --> 01:53:03,639 Speaker 1: Sundays a little bit. Huh. Seriously, do you ever get 2313 01:53:03,720 --> 01:53:06,800 Speaker 1: used to the weather? Yeah, you'd ignore it mostly when 2314 01:53:06,840 --> 01:53:11,839 Speaker 1: you live here. I've reached Chicago girls, who I'm embarrassed 2315 01:53:11,840 --> 01:53:13,640 Speaker 1: to say this. I just haven't lived in cold and 2316 01:53:13,760 --> 01:53:15,960 Speaker 1: so long. I did live in southern California for a 2317 01:53:16,000 --> 01:53:18,519 Speaker 1: while and then moved to Nashville. So once you know better, 2318 01:53:18,600 --> 01:53:20,559 Speaker 1: you do better. You guys, I just don't do well 2319 01:53:20,600 --> 01:53:24,559 Speaker 1: in cold weather anymore. So how would you compare what's 2320 01:53:24,600 --> 01:53:26,920 Speaker 1: known as the windy City to the wind you experienced 2321 01:53:26,960 --> 01:53:31,240 Speaker 1: two weeks ago? Um, it's funny because you know, the 2322 01:53:31,320 --> 01:53:34,400 Speaker 1: whole the real reason Chicago is called the windy City 2323 01:53:34,520 --> 01:53:38,840 Speaker 1: was always about politicians, right, right? But so so I 2324 01:53:38,960 --> 01:53:40,960 Speaker 1: would say when it comes to the wind, if you're 2325 01:53:40,960 --> 01:53:43,960 Speaker 1: standing on the lake front in Chicago, like it's it's 2326 01:53:44,040 --> 01:53:47,080 Speaker 1: really windy, but nowhere else you really feel it. I 2327 01:53:47,160 --> 01:53:51,360 Speaker 1: would not say that from the past couple of Buffalo Uh. 2328 01:53:51,680 --> 01:53:55,040 Speaker 1: There has nothing to do with politicians. It was so windy, 2329 01:53:55,080 --> 01:53:56,519 Speaker 1: and I know I don't have to tell you guys this, 2330 01:53:56,640 --> 01:54:00,479 Speaker 1: but it's so tricky in that stadium. And I have 2331 01:54:00,640 --> 01:54:05,360 Speaker 1: become more fluent in wind conversation, and I'm trying to 2332 01:54:05,400 --> 01:54:09,080 Speaker 1: figure out win direction with special teams coaches, and yours 2333 01:54:09,240 --> 01:54:11,559 Speaker 1: is really one of the most difficult. It was interesting 2334 01:54:11,800 --> 01:54:15,760 Speaker 1: yesterday or on Saturday, when we met with Washington. Bill 2335 01:54:15,880 --> 01:54:19,200 Speaker 1: Callahan told me that they were showing clip from the 2336 01:54:19,280 --> 01:54:21,600 Speaker 1: Bills game the previous week with the Eagles, and he's like, 2337 01:54:21,680 --> 01:54:24,000 Speaker 1: we showed a clip of you, and I got very 2338 01:54:24,120 --> 01:54:26,439 Speaker 1: nervous because that's never good if a coach shows you 2339 01:54:26,520 --> 01:54:29,519 Speaker 1: in clip. And I was like, why, and he said, 2340 01:54:29,800 --> 01:54:32,080 Speaker 1: there were a couple of things with you were you 2341 01:54:32,200 --> 01:54:35,440 Speaker 1: were getting blown around so much and your notepad like 2342 01:54:35,680 --> 01:54:37,920 Speaker 1: like he just said, it was a mass out there. 2343 01:54:38,200 --> 01:54:40,400 Speaker 1: So we were talking. We wanted them to see how 2344 01:54:40,440 --> 01:54:43,640 Speaker 1: windy it was. And when they're showing clips of how 2345 01:54:43,760 --> 01:54:46,440 Speaker 1: windy your places, I just had never heard that before. 2346 01:54:46,600 --> 01:54:48,520 Speaker 1: You know, it's you know, it's a big deal. Yeah, 2347 01:54:48,680 --> 01:54:50,520 Speaker 1: we're on the line with Laura Opened. She has been 2348 01:54:50,560 --> 01:54:52,240 Speaker 1: on the sidelines here the last couple of weeks with 2349 01:54:52,320 --> 01:54:54,680 Speaker 1: the NFL on Fox. Laura, we didn't really call to 2350 01:54:54,800 --> 01:54:57,240 Speaker 1: talk about wind so much as much as as a 2351 01:54:57,320 --> 01:55:00,360 Speaker 1: tweet that you put out in response to your two 2352 01:55:00,520 --> 01:55:03,320 Speaker 1: consecutive games here in Buffalo, and our topic of the 2353 01:55:03,360 --> 01:55:05,200 Speaker 1: show for today is do the Bills get enough credit? 2354 01:55:05,480 --> 01:55:07,840 Speaker 1: Your tweet said, we spent two weeks with the Bills 2355 01:55:08,080 --> 01:55:10,360 Speaker 1: and I really love what they're building. People are picking 2356 01:55:10,440 --> 01:55:13,240 Speaker 1: them apart. And here's the thing, they picked themselves apart. 2357 01:55:13,320 --> 01:55:15,320 Speaker 1: The team is growing and pretty awesome. When you're growing 2358 01:55:15,640 --> 01:55:18,440 Speaker 1: and six and two, I think you're onto something there, right. 2359 01:55:18,480 --> 01:55:23,240 Speaker 1: This team knows that they have flaws. Yeah. Completely. I 2360 01:55:23,760 --> 01:55:26,560 Speaker 1: loved being in your building for two days. It's the 2361 01:55:26,640 --> 01:55:29,080 Speaker 1: privilege of my job is we get to do this 2362 01:55:29,280 --> 01:55:32,320 Speaker 1: with thirty two teams. So we go to thirty two 2363 01:55:32,400 --> 01:55:35,720 Speaker 1: facilities and you really can take the temperature of a 2364 01:55:35,800 --> 01:55:38,320 Speaker 1: team on a Friday, you see what the culture is. 2365 01:55:38,400 --> 01:55:40,360 Speaker 1: You see and you hear and you just you know, 2366 01:55:40,400 --> 01:55:41,840 Speaker 1: you kind of a fly on the wall and you 2367 01:55:41,920 --> 01:55:44,760 Speaker 1: get to really be a part of it. And after 2368 01:55:44,840 --> 01:55:48,440 Speaker 1: all these years, I feel pretty good on showing up 2369 01:55:48,520 --> 01:55:52,240 Speaker 1: on a Friday and knowing who who's kicking their own 2370 01:55:52,280 --> 01:55:54,240 Speaker 1: butts so much on Friday, where you're like, they're never 2371 01:55:54,320 --> 01:55:56,040 Speaker 1: going to stop kicking their own butt to kick someone 2372 01:55:56,080 --> 01:55:59,120 Speaker 1: else's on Sunday. Like you feel that in buildings and 2373 01:55:59,360 --> 01:56:01,800 Speaker 1: you can feel the dysfunction. And I can just say 2374 01:56:01,840 --> 01:56:03,680 Speaker 1: in the last couple of weeks that we spent with you, 2375 01:56:03,720 --> 01:56:05,640 Speaker 1: and when we had you a few times last year 2376 01:56:06,400 --> 01:56:10,080 Speaker 1: and a year before so we had been around as 2377 01:56:10,320 --> 01:56:13,200 Speaker 1: as this as m as Sean and Brandon started and 2378 01:56:13,240 --> 01:56:17,040 Speaker 1: the Bagoula started, really started changing this culture, sort of 2379 01:56:17,040 --> 01:56:20,200 Speaker 1: shifting the culture, and this these last couple of weeks 2380 01:56:20,280 --> 01:56:23,960 Speaker 1: just felt really good. And because exactly what you just said, 2381 01:56:24,080 --> 01:56:27,120 Speaker 1: it's not like they were sitting around going, you know, 2382 01:56:27,240 --> 01:56:30,240 Speaker 1: like five and two and you know, and we've accomplished something. 2383 01:56:30,400 --> 01:56:33,080 Speaker 1: It was such a cautious feeling, and it is such 2384 01:56:33,080 --> 01:56:36,360 Speaker 1: a cautious feeling of we haven't played We certainly haven't 2385 01:56:36,360 --> 01:56:39,920 Speaker 1: played our best game yet. We are still growing so much, 2386 01:56:40,040 --> 01:56:43,840 Speaker 1: but They're laying all the right breadcrumbs and I loved. 2387 01:56:43,880 --> 01:56:47,120 Speaker 1: I asked, um, I'm trying to think what the second 2388 01:56:47,200 --> 01:56:51,040 Speaker 1: question was. I asked Josh something about it's most teams 2389 01:56:51,080 --> 01:56:53,000 Speaker 1: are six and two and they would say a word 2390 01:56:53,080 --> 01:56:55,720 Speaker 1: to describe how the building feels. They would use you 2391 01:56:55,840 --> 01:56:59,160 Speaker 1: for it. You know that this great feeling. And I 2392 01:56:59,360 --> 01:57:03,640 Speaker 1: asked John it was what his feeling was, and it 2393 01:57:03,800 --> 01:57:06,280 Speaker 1: was hungry. And that's how I felt for the last 2394 01:57:06,320 --> 01:57:08,080 Speaker 1: two weeks. So this isn't a team that thinks they've 2395 01:57:08,120 --> 01:57:12,520 Speaker 1: accomplished anything. It's a team that's really trying to get better. So, 2396 01:57:13,040 --> 01:57:15,960 Speaker 1: sitting at six and two, in the advantageous position that 2397 01:57:16,040 --> 01:57:19,560 Speaker 1: they're in, knowing they only have three more games against 2398 01:57:19,600 --> 01:57:22,520 Speaker 1: teams that currently have winning records over their final eight 2399 01:57:23,240 --> 01:57:26,280 Speaker 1: and the team culture that you've witnessed in your time here, 2400 01:57:26,880 --> 01:57:29,440 Speaker 1: how do you feel that will position them here down 2401 01:57:29,520 --> 01:57:31,920 Speaker 1: the stretch as they try to make a run to 2402 01:57:31,960 --> 01:57:36,080 Speaker 1: the postseason. I feel really good. Here's what I will say, Like, 2403 01:57:36,720 --> 01:57:39,360 Speaker 1: I feel really good about their growth right now. I 2404 01:57:39,480 --> 01:57:44,240 Speaker 1: feel really good about It's not just hey, we're growing 2405 01:57:44,400 --> 01:57:46,720 Speaker 1: and it's just like terrific. We just want to play well. 2406 01:57:46,760 --> 01:57:50,200 Speaker 1: I was talking to Lorenzo Alexander on Friday, and I 2407 01:57:50,280 --> 01:57:54,080 Speaker 1: said something to him just about about having a rookie 2408 01:57:54,200 --> 01:57:57,080 Speaker 1: quarterback and said something just kind of you know, I 2409 01:57:57,480 --> 01:57:59,320 Speaker 1: didn't even think it through. I just sort of threw 2410 01:57:59,360 --> 01:58:03,200 Speaker 1: it out. There is there something to having a rookie quarterback? 2411 01:58:03,680 --> 01:58:06,760 Speaker 1: Um facing a defense? It doesn't feel really good about 2412 01:58:06,800 --> 01:58:09,200 Speaker 1: themselves right now? You know, company talking about the week 2413 01:58:09,320 --> 01:58:12,920 Speaker 1: before against Philly, And he corrected it really quickly, and 2414 01:58:13,000 --> 01:58:15,280 Speaker 1: he's like, who said we didn't feel good about ourselves? 2415 01:58:16,120 --> 01:58:19,600 Speaker 1: And I loved hearing that. We're I love the growth, 2416 01:58:19,640 --> 01:58:21,480 Speaker 1: and I love the humility, and I love the we 2417 01:58:21,880 --> 01:58:23,920 Speaker 1: need to get better. But there's still a little bit 2418 01:58:24,000 --> 01:58:25,960 Speaker 1: of an edge there. There's still a little bit of 2419 01:58:26,080 --> 01:58:27,960 Speaker 1: a chip, which you want to see. It sixs them 2420 01:58:28,000 --> 01:58:31,200 Speaker 1: two and I think they're very I think your team 2421 01:58:31,360 --> 01:58:34,040 Speaker 1: is very aware of who they've faced and who is 2422 01:58:34,160 --> 01:58:37,800 Speaker 1: up ahead. So I would say I'm one of those 2423 01:58:37,880 --> 01:58:40,840 Speaker 1: girls that that trusts the process and believes in the 2424 01:58:41,000 --> 01:58:43,280 Speaker 1: process when it when it's a good one. You know, 2425 01:58:43,360 --> 01:58:45,040 Speaker 1: there's some where you're like, I don't I don't know 2426 01:58:45,160 --> 01:58:47,480 Speaker 1: your north, so I don't I don't see where you're going. 2427 01:58:47,960 --> 01:58:51,760 Speaker 1: But I love the North in this building, and if that, 2428 01:58:52,080 --> 01:58:55,080 Speaker 1: if the offense keeps growing, and Josh, it just the 2429 01:58:55,120 --> 01:58:58,120 Speaker 1: whole offense looked as good as I've seen it this 2430 01:58:58,320 --> 01:59:01,280 Speaker 1: past week, and the defense just keeps seeing that. Bell 2431 01:59:01,360 --> 01:59:03,680 Speaker 1: cows that they are. I feel really good about where 2432 01:59:03,720 --> 01:59:05,920 Speaker 1: you guys are going, and not just for this season. 2433 01:59:06,480 --> 01:59:09,720 Speaker 1: I think that's the big thing is right now, it 2434 01:59:09,840 --> 01:59:13,080 Speaker 1: just looks like it's being built for seasons beyond. And 2435 01:59:13,680 --> 01:59:16,360 Speaker 1: that's one thing I also talked to Laurenzo about, which 2436 01:59:16,440 --> 01:59:19,480 Speaker 1: is we've gone string these wins together. If you're going 2437 01:59:19,520 --> 01:59:21,960 Speaker 1: to be a consistent team, you can't win two games 2438 01:59:22,040 --> 01:59:24,840 Speaker 1: here and there. It's got to be here's three straight 2439 01:59:24,920 --> 01:59:26,360 Speaker 1: wins and then you know there might be a lot 2440 01:59:26,440 --> 01:59:28,800 Speaker 1: so and then there's four straight and that's where that 2441 01:59:29,440 --> 01:59:31,840 Speaker 1: this team hasn't had that continuity yet. And it's a 2442 01:59:31,920 --> 01:59:34,680 Speaker 1: young team. So that's what I'm excited to see. Can 2443 01:59:34,920 --> 01:59:37,240 Speaker 1: can they take care of the games that they should 2444 01:59:37,320 --> 01:59:41,000 Speaker 1: coming up, and hopefully as they keep doing that and growing, 2445 01:59:41,040 --> 01:59:42,960 Speaker 1: that's when the tougher part of the schedule shows up 2446 01:59:43,120 --> 01:59:44,880 Speaker 1: on the line. With Laura Open from the NFL on 2447 01:59:45,000 --> 01:59:47,360 Speaker 1: Fox Sideline reported the last couple of Bills games here 2448 01:59:47,400 --> 01:59:49,920 Speaker 1: at home. I know. One of the storyline big storylines 2449 01:59:49,960 --> 01:59:52,800 Speaker 1: going in was the running back matchup Frank Gore and 2450 01:59:52,840 --> 01:59:55,720 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson, couple of all timers, both of them probably 2451 01:59:55,800 --> 01:59:57,640 Speaker 1: on their way to the Pro Football of Fame. And 2452 01:59:57,760 --> 01:59:59,640 Speaker 1: we had Devin Singletary on the show with us first 2453 01:59:59,680 --> 02:00:02,160 Speaker 1: hours day Laura and talked about how, yeah, how cool 2454 02:00:02,200 --> 02:00:03,840 Speaker 1: it was that he kind of stole the show from 2455 02:00:03,880 --> 02:00:05,560 Speaker 1: the two old times. It was pretty neat. Yes, so 2456 02:00:05,640 --> 02:00:08,640 Speaker 1: he wasn't it? Yeah? I was. I was nervous you 2457 02:00:08,680 --> 02:00:10,280 Speaker 1: were going to start talking about Frank or because I 2458 02:00:10,440 --> 02:00:11,920 Speaker 1: was like, you will have me on for three hours? 2459 02:00:11,960 --> 02:00:14,480 Speaker 1: Were you talking about Frank? If you want, go ahead. 2460 02:00:15,440 --> 02:00:18,320 Speaker 1: But here's what I love about Devin. So I've known Frank, 2461 02:00:18,440 --> 02:00:20,960 Speaker 1: you know, a long time since since he came in. Um, 2462 02:00:21,120 --> 02:00:23,200 Speaker 1: I will not make an age joke because then I'm older. 2463 02:00:23,680 --> 02:00:28,360 Speaker 1: But I said something to him two weeks ago and said, 2464 02:00:28,360 --> 02:00:30,320 Speaker 1: I haven't met Devin yet, and he was He's like, 2465 02:00:30,360 --> 02:00:32,520 Speaker 1: I'm so excited for you to meet Devon. And I 2466 02:00:32,720 --> 02:00:35,120 Speaker 1: was like, there's no way I'm gonna like him like 2467 02:00:35,200 --> 02:00:37,680 Speaker 1: I like you. And he's like you, He's like, he's 2468 02:00:37,720 --> 02:00:40,720 Speaker 1: going to remind you so much of me, And I said, 2469 02:00:40,720 --> 02:00:43,240 Speaker 1: in what way? And he's like, wait to see just 2470 02:00:43,760 --> 02:00:47,240 Speaker 1: the humility, wait to see how I was like, there's 2471 02:00:47,280 --> 02:00:49,560 Speaker 1: no way he talks. He doesn't talk, you know, he 2472 02:00:49,640 --> 02:00:51,520 Speaker 1: talks less than you. He's like, he talks less than me. 2473 02:00:52,240 --> 02:00:54,560 Speaker 1: And he's like, I've never ever been around a guy 2474 02:00:54,640 --> 02:00:57,400 Speaker 1: who wants it this much. And I recognize that of 2475 02:00:57,600 --> 02:01:00,680 Speaker 1: all the years I've talked to Frank about mentoring young players, 2476 02:01:00,840 --> 02:01:04,800 Speaker 1: it's never been like this. Frank has always been if 2477 02:01:04,880 --> 02:01:07,680 Speaker 1: they deserve it kind of guy, as he should be, like, 2478 02:01:07,840 --> 02:01:10,160 Speaker 1: you should deserve the time you get this friend with 2479 02:01:10,320 --> 02:01:14,320 Speaker 1: the spend with Frank Gorey. So he's incredible. But I 2480 02:01:14,560 --> 02:01:17,880 Speaker 1: met so Frank introduced me to him, and I loved 2481 02:01:17,960 --> 02:01:21,320 Speaker 1: him immediately. He very much reminded me of a young Frank, 2482 02:01:21,440 --> 02:01:24,080 Speaker 1: just how quiet and now respectful. And also when I 2483 02:01:24,160 --> 02:01:27,520 Speaker 1: said to him, how patient are you? And he smiled 2484 02:01:27,520 --> 02:01:30,600 Speaker 1: and he said, I'm really patient. I've done this before. 2485 02:01:30,720 --> 02:01:32,880 Speaker 1: I haven't been the man in high school. I haven't 2486 02:01:32,880 --> 02:01:36,720 Speaker 1: been the man in college. So he said he's learned 2487 02:01:36,760 --> 02:01:39,280 Speaker 1: the value of the bench. So he said, you know, 2488 02:01:39,320 --> 02:01:42,160 Speaker 1: people are sitting here thinking that they're wasting me. But 2489 02:01:42,360 --> 02:01:45,400 Speaker 1: I'm not waste. I'm not being wasted. As I'm sitting 2490 02:01:45,440 --> 02:01:47,880 Speaker 1: on the sideline, I'm watching everything. And he said, and 2491 02:01:47,960 --> 02:01:51,200 Speaker 1: I'm so lucky because Frank shares everything with me. So 2492 02:01:51,800 --> 02:01:56,840 Speaker 1: I loved that attitude and he is his exact words, 2493 02:01:56,840 --> 02:02:00,440 Speaker 1: where I'm in Frank's hip pocket and every buddy, I know, 2494 02:02:00,520 --> 02:02:02,720 Speaker 1: you guys see that all the time. Everyone told me, 2495 02:02:02,840 --> 02:02:05,160 Speaker 1: for two weeks, just look for Frank and you will 2496 02:02:05,200 --> 02:02:08,520 Speaker 1: always see Devin like he's attached to him. And I 2497 02:02:08,680 --> 02:02:11,720 Speaker 1: saw that for two weeks, and I know, just talking 2498 02:02:11,800 --> 02:02:15,360 Speaker 1: to him, pregame what Devin. I said to him, like, 2499 02:02:15,600 --> 02:02:17,200 Speaker 1: I get it, like you're in his hip pocket and 2500 02:02:17,280 --> 02:02:19,440 Speaker 1: you learn so much, but can you be specific, like 2501 02:02:19,560 --> 02:02:22,400 Speaker 1: give me something that I can really say, this is 2502 02:02:22,440 --> 02:02:26,480 Speaker 1: how you've changed already because of his presence. And he said, 2503 02:02:26,720 --> 02:02:29,320 Speaker 1: I'm already so much more on top of my body 2504 02:02:29,400 --> 02:02:32,320 Speaker 1: than i've ever been. If I have a knick, you know, 2505 02:02:32,440 --> 02:02:35,240 Speaker 1: the I'd say, young me, but he's twenty two. But 2506 02:02:35,360 --> 02:02:38,640 Speaker 1: the younger me would have just dismissed that, or would 2507 02:02:38,640 --> 02:02:41,000 Speaker 1: have played through that or worked through that. He said, 2508 02:02:41,040 --> 02:02:43,080 Speaker 1: I don't do that anymore, even if it's a knick. 2509 02:02:43,200 --> 02:02:44,960 Speaker 1: I'm going to go take care of that. I'm gonna 2510 02:02:44,960 --> 02:02:47,440 Speaker 1: go treat that because I now I'm now looking at 2511 02:02:47,480 --> 02:02:50,600 Speaker 1: how Frank treats his body, not for a season, but 2512 02:02:50,800 --> 02:02:54,000 Speaker 1: for the longevity of a career. And he said that, Now, 2513 02:02:54,080 --> 02:02:57,920 Speaker 1: how I'm looking at this and just everything he said, 2514 02:02:58,040 --> 02:03:00,960 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, like, just I'm so impressed. And 2515 02:03:01,040 --> 02:03:03,879 Speaker 1: then to see him have a career day was really wonderful. 2516 02:03:03,920 --> 02:03:06,080 Speaker 1: And also to see that Frank was right there supporting 2517 02:03:06,120 --> 02:03:09,400 Speaker 1: him throughout the things, throughout the whole game. So I love, love, 2518 02:03:09,560 --> 02:03:11,560 Speaker 1: love how these two are going to help each other 2519 02:03:11,640 --> 02:03:13,520 Speaker 1: and lean on each other. Hello, or Lessing, I want 2520 02:03:13,520 --> 02:03:15,280 Speaker 1: to get you, get you a chance to talk about 2521 02:03:15,360 --> 02:03:19,240 Speaker 1: Galvanize your broadcast boot camp geared towards women. You had 2522 02:03:19,240 --> 02:03:21,240 Speaker 1: your group in here? Was it last offseason or two 2523 02:03:21,240 --> 02:03:25,080 Speaker 1: summers ago? Two summers ago? It was? It was awesome. 2524 02:03:26,880 --> 02:03:29,400 Speaker 1: It's funny because I whenever I'm asked about it, it's 2525 02:03:29,440 --> 02:03:32,560 Speaker 1: always from the women's perspective, which I love. That's why 2526 02:03:32,600 --> 02:03:35,320 Speaker 1: I started it. I wanted to create something that I 2527 02:03:35,440 --> 02:03:39,200 Speaker 1: never had as a young woman in broadcasting, in sports broadcasting, 2528 02:03:39,240 --> 02:03:43,000 Speaker 1: which was a network of women. And it's not just 2529 02:03:43,160 --> 02:03:46,000 Speaker 1: about hey, let's get better on camera or behind the scenes, 2530 02:03:46,040 --> 02:03:48,200 Speaker 1: and what we do. It's more about who we are. 2531 02:03:48,320 --> 02:03:53,080 Speaker 1: And there's so many minefields and so many just potholes 2532 02:03:53,120 --> 02:03:55,520 Speaker 1: that you're trying to figure out so much greg as 2533 02:03:55,560 --> 02:03:58,480 Speaker 1: a woman in this male dominated industry, So I really 2534 02:03:58,520 --> 02:04:01,640 Speaker 1: wanted to create something to give all these young women 2535 02:04:01,680 --> 02:04:03,920 Speaker 1: a network to have each other and also have a 2536 02:04:04,040 --> 02:04:06,760 Speaker 1: mentor someone they could lean on who has been there before. 2537 02:04:07,440 --> 02:04:09,560 Speaker 1: But what I do in the summer with the boot 2538 02:04:09,600 --> 02:04:11,880 Speaker 1: camps is we team up with NFL teams and so 2539 02:04:12,080 --> 02:04:15,800 Speaker 1: the Bills give me their rookies and I can't remember 2540 02:04:15,840 --> 02:04:18,520 Speaker 1: if it was like about twenty two rookies two years ago, 2541 02:04:18,560 --> 02:04:20,280 Speaker 1: but it was about twenty two rookies. So I bring 2542 02:04:20,320 --> 02:04:23,880 Speaker 1: in twenty two women reporters and the end of our 2543 02:04:23,960 --> 02:04:27,840 Speaker 1: time together, each partnership will do an interview and we 2544 02:04:27,920 --> 02:04:30,640 Speaker 1: do not talk football. We talk strictly about who they 2545 02:04:30,680 --> 02:04:33,400 Speaker 1: are at this very stressful time in their life during 2546 02:04:33,480 --> 02:04:36,160 Speaker 1: rookie camp, trying to make a team. But it also 2547 02:04:36,240 --> 02:04:38,800 Speaker 1: checks a lot of boxes off. It's pretty incredible watching 2548 02:04:39,320 --> 02:04:44,840 Speaker 1: these reporters and these players build these relationships. So none 2549 02:04:44,880 --> 02:04:47,040 Speaker 1: of these men have ever had women in the locker room. 2550 02:04:47,320 --> 02:04:48,880 Speaker 1: A lot of them haven't worked with a lot of 2551 02:04:48,920 --> 02:04:52,000 Speaker 1: women reporters, and I love that they get to see 2552 02:04:52,040 --> 02:04:55,879 Speaker 1: these young women who have been in a hotel conference 2553 02:04:55,960 --> 02:04:59,600 Speaker 1: room for fifteen hours preparing for their interview and learning 2554 02:04:59,640 --> 02:05:01,800 Speaker 1: how to listen and learning how to ask better questions, 2555 02:05:01,840 --> 02:05:05,280 Speaker 1: and learning how to build trust with players. And it's 2556 02:05:05,320 --> 02:05:09,440 Speaker 1: just this incredible day together with empathy, respect for each other, 2557 02:05:09,880 --> 02:05:12,800 Speaker 1: and a terrific way to have these players be able 2558 02:05:12,840 --> 02:05:17,440 Speaker 1: to tell their story are as they're about to walk 2559 02:05:17,520 --> 02:05:19,560 Speaker 1: into the one of the greatest moments of their life. 2560 02:05:20,520 --> 02:05:22,600 Speaker 1: That's a great idea. Well, I would hope that this 2561 02:05:22,720 --> 02:05:26,400 Speaker 1: week Fox had you like in Arizona or South Florida, 2562 02:05:26,480 --> 02:05:28,760 Speaker 1: because you've done your time two weeks here in the 2563 02:05:28,800 --> 02:05:30,800 Speaker 1: wind and rain, and then the week before you had 2564 02:05:30,880 --> 02:05:33,000 Speaker 1: Washington right with a rainstorm and watching in the week 2565 02:05:33,040 --> 02:05:37,360 Speaker 1: before that was one of the worst games. And the 2566 02:05:37,520 --> 02:05:41,720 Speaker 1: reward is Pittsburgh at four twenty five pm this Sunday. 2567 02:05:41,800 --> 02:05:43,840 Speaker 1: So I have a feeling it will not get much better. 2568 02:05:43,960 --> 02:05:46,240 Speaker 1: But if I complain about it, shame on me. It's 2569 02:05:46,280 --> 02:05:48,040 Speaker 1: pretty awesome doing what I do well. You do a 2570 02:05:48,080 --> 02:05:49,680 Speaker 1: great job.

Here's 2593 02:06:58,360 --> 02:07:02,920 Speaker 1: what he said, a lot of memorable moments through eight games. 2594 02:07:03,040 --> 02:07:06,000 Speaker 1: And I think the best part about it is, you know, 2595 02:07:06,320 --> 02:07:09,560 Speaker 1: Bills fans are critical right now of the six and 2596 02:07:09,640 --> 02:07:12,320 Speaker 1: two start of aspects, especially some of the offense, some 2597 02:07:12,400 --> 02:07:15,040 Speaker 1: of the run defense. And I think that's a great sign. 2598 02:07:15,240 --> 02:07:16,920 Speaker 1: It's a great sign that the Bills are six and two. 2599 02:07:17,040 --> 02:07:18,800 Speaker 1: We can still say, man, they need to get better 2600 02:07:18,840 --> 02:07:20,880 Speaker 1: with the rush deefits, they need to get better with 2601 02:07:21,040 --> 02:07:24,040 Speaker 1: explosive plays on offense. They need to improve their point 2602 02:07:24,040 --> 02:07:27,360 Speaker 1: totals on offense. And you love to be six and 2603 02:07:27,440 --> 02:07:29,400 Speaker 1: two and saying, wow, we have this much room to 2604 02:07:29,480 --> 02:07:32,360 Speaker 1: grow still. Eric Wood talking about the Bills at the 2605 02:07:32,400 --> 02:07:34,920 Speaker 1: midway point of the season. Devin Singletary, motor was on 2606 02:07:35,080 --> 02:07:36,680 Speaker 1: set with us in that first hour of the show, 2607 02:07:37,040 --> 02:07:39,160 Speaker 1: and the Buffalo running back coming off a career day, 2608 02:07:39,240 --> 02:07:41,560 Speaker 1: said one of the highlights for him yesterday was giving 2609 02:07:41,560 --> 02:07:43,800 Speaker 1: me a chance to spend some time with Watchington running 2610 02:07:43,800 --> 02:07:48,520 Speaker 1: back Adrian Peterson. Here's what Singletary said. I was definitely excited, 2611 02:07:48,560 --> 02:07:50,280 Speaker 1: you know, to be on the same field as ap 2612 02:07:50,480 --> 02:07:53,080 Speaker 1: to watch them run because I watched them go crazy 2613 02:07:53,280 --> 02:07:55,640 Speaker 1: plenty of times and back in Minnesota, you know what 2614 02:07:55,680 --> 02:07:58,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying. So I was just ready to you know, 2615 02:07:58,600 --> 02:08:00,760 Speaker 1: kind of be a fan almost just see him, see 2616 02:08:00,800 --> 02:08:02,880 Speaker 1: how he works, you know, up close and personal. And 2617 02:08:03,120 --> 02:08:05,120 Speaker 1: I was impressed, you know, you know, to be that. 2618 02:08:05,480 --> 02:08:07,360 Speaker 1: You know, he's been in the league for what how 2619 02:08:07,400 --> 02:08:11,680 Speaker 1: many years? Yeah, So, and he was still getting in 2620 02:08:11,760 --> 02:08:13,560 Speaker 1: and out a cuss. I'm just like, dang, you know 2621 02:08:13,560 --> 02:08:16,280 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It was definitely an honor to meet 2622 02:08:16,360 --> 02:08:19,040 Speaker 1: him at the game and get to talk to him, saying, um, 2623 02:08:19,200 --> 02:08:21,320 Speaker 1: you know, he just came up to me. He was like, man, man, 2624 02:08:21,360 --> 02:08:22,800 Speaker 1: you got talent. You know what I'm saying. You got 2625 02:08:22,840 --> 02:08:24,760 Speaker 1: what it takes. I can definitely see that, you know. 2626 02:08:25,080 --> 02:08:27,120 Speaker 1: Just keep working, you know what I'm saying, and keep 2627 02:08:27,200 --> 02:08:29,000 Speaker 1: God first. And I told him I was trying to 2628 02:08:29,040 --> 02:08:30,720 Speaker 1: ball I him. He was like, you got it, man, 2629 02:08:30,880 --> 02:08:33,120 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So basically, just keep doing 2630 02:08:33,200 --> 02:08:36,200 Speaker 1: what you're doing. Devin Singletary. It was kind of cool 2631 02:08:36,240 --> 02:08:39,040 Speaker 1: to hear what Laura Open said about Frank Gore talking 2632 02:08:39,040 --> 02:08:41,840 Speaker 1: about Devin Singletary right telling her about how this is 2633 02:08:41,920 --> 02:08:45,800 Speaker 1: his number one mentee. Yeah, I mean, we were talking 2634 02:08:45,840 --> 02:08:48,480 Speaker 1: to Frank in the locker room after the game yesterday, 2635 02:08:49,320 --> 02:08:51,560 Speaker 1: and you know, people wanted to get some feedback from 2636 02:08:51,600 --> 02:08:54,000 Speaker 1: Frank on what he thought of Devin's performance, and he's like, 2637 02:08:54,080 --> 02:08:56,920 Speaker 1: I'm proud of him. That's my little homie, he called him. 2638 02:08:57,720 --> 02:08:59,360 Speaker 1: I think he looks at him like a kid brother. 2639 02:08:59,560 --> 02:09:03,240 Speaker 1: So and I think because of the fact that Devon 2640 02:09:04,680 --> 02:09:07,880 Speaker 1: has a lot of the same principles and ideals as 2641 02:09:07,920 --> 02:09:12,120 Speaker 1: a person and a professional, a new professional. Granted, he 2642 02:09:12,240 --> 02:09:15,160 Speaker 1: sees a little bits, as Laura said, he's Frank sees 2643 02:09:15,200 --> 02:09:17,520 Speaker 1: a little bit of Devon or a little bit of 2644 02:09:17,600 --> 02:09:21,480 Speaker 1: himself in Devon, and so I think that's only enhanced 2645 02:09:21,520 --> 02:09:28,000 Speaker 1: the bond between them. And Devin is very unassuming, very humble. 2646 02:09:29,200 --> 02:09:31,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I he could go on to have a 2647 02:09:31,280 --> 02:09:34,240 Speaker 1: fantastic career here. I still think he's going to be 2648 02:09:34,320 --> 02:09:36,320 Speaker 1: the same kind of humble guy who just get that 2649 02:09:36,480 --> 02:09:40,480 Speaker 1: sense from him that he's very unassuming and does not 2650 02:09:41,120 --> 02:09:45,040 Speaker 1: really take anything for granted. And he's learning from Frank 2651 02:09:45,160 --> 02:09:47,240 Speaker 1: now too. And we already heard what Laura said about 2652 02:09:47,320 --> 02:09:49,120 Speaker 1: him taking care of making a point of taking care 2653 02:09:49,160 --> 02:09:51,080 Speaker 1: of his body, even if it's the slightest little thing. 2654 02:09:51,760 --> 02:09:53,560 Speaker 1: You know, he knows this is a much more punishing 2655 02:09:53,640 --> 02:09:56,320 Speaker 1: league than at any other level he played at. So yeah, 2656 02:09:56,480 --> 02:09:58,720 Speaker 1: even if you're young and spry at twenty two, take 2657 02:09:58,800 --> 02:10:01,040 Speaker 1: care of it now. Who knows you may also be 2658 02:10:01,120 --> 02:10:03,600 Speaker 1: playing when you're thirty five life rank is Hey? Our 2659 02:10:03,640 --> 02:10:05,840 Speaker 1: Twitter poll today, I thought it was interesting and let's 2660 02:10:05,880 --> 02:10:07,880 Speaker 1: recap it. Off to the best start. The Bills are 2661 02:10:07,920 --> 02:10:10,960 Speaker 1: through eight games since nineteen ninety three with their six win, 2662 02:10:11,040 --> 02:10:13,560 Speaker 1: two loss record. But do the Bills get enough credit 2663 02:10:14,040 --> 02:10:16,160 Speaker 1: wherever you think they should get credit? Are they getting 2664 02:10:16,280 --> 02:10:19,120 Speaker 1: enough credit for being six and two? On Twitter? About 2665 02:10:19,200 --> 02:10:21,600 Speaker 1: nine hundred votes or more, we had sixty four percent 2666 02:10:21,680 --> 02:10:24,280 Speaker 1: of our respondents, almost two thirds day no, you know what, 2667 02:10:24,400 --> 02:10:27,520 Speaker 1: They're not getting enough credit, thirty six percent yes, said 2668 02:10:27,640 --> 02:10:30,520 Speaker 1: yes they are. And on the tweet sheet some responses 2669 02:10:30,560 --> 02:10:33,400 Speaker 1: to this. The tweet sheet brought you by Corrigan Moving Systems. 2670 02:10:33,720 --> 02:10:36,040 Speaker 1: Michael tweets. And what have they done? They beat every 2671 02:10:36,080 --> 02:10:37,760 Speaker 1: team they were supposed to be and they lost to 2672 02:10:37,840 --> 02:10:40,240 Speaker 1: good teams. There's a reason why they are underdogs to 2673 02:10:40,280 --> 02:10:42,280 Speaker 1: the Browns are two and a half three point underdogs 2674 02:10:42,320 --> 02:10:44,760 Speaker 1: to Cleveland. I get that. I guess, Yeah, what have 2675 02:10:44,800 --> 02:10:46,360 Speaker 1: they done? You can ask that questions a little bitter 2676 02:10:46,440 --> 02:10:49,720 Speaker 1: on a Monday. Yeah, I hear you, a little bitter. Hey, 2677 02:10:49,920 --> 02:10:51,480 Speaker 1: this is still a better pole than the one they 2678 02:10:51,520 --> 02:10:54,520 Speaker 1: were in in Cleveland. Bills Browns fan ran a pole 2679 02:10:54,560 --> 02:10:58,680 Speaker 1: in Cleveland. Will Freddie Kitchens be one and done? Yes 2680 02:10:58,800 --> 02:11:04,160 Speaker 1: or no? And fans responded nine, yes, Oh yeah, it's 2681 02:11:04,200 --> 02:11:06,560 Speaker 1: a rough monday in Cleveland. Yeah, it's also a rough 2682 02:11:06,600 --> 02:11:09,120 Speaker 1: monday in New York. Yes, a couple other places. Um, 2683 02:11:09,240 --> 02:11:10,760 Speaker 1: it was a good monday here and we think, yeah, 2684 02:11:10,760 --> 02:11:12,840 Speaker 1: I've been part of it, Chris Sure, Home teams, how 2685 02:11:12,840 --> 02:11:14,360 Speaker 1: about this? The Bill's hitting the road, and we know 2686 02:11:14,520 --> 02:11:17,040 Speaker 1: what road teams have done this year in the NFL 2687 02:11:17,080 --> 02:11:19,280 Speaker 1: has been a good year for road teams. But yesterday 2688 02:11:19,360 --> 02:11:23,080 Speaker 1: home teams were eleven, and I saw that that's unusual. 2689 02:11:23,760 --> 02:11:28,240 Speaker 1: It's unusual I'd like to see. I mean, the Patriots 2690 02:11:28,280 --> 02:11:30,560 Speaker 1: losing on the road was not worthy, obviously because they 2691 02:11:30,600 --> 02:11:35,040 Speaker 1: haven't lost yet. And I guess to a certain extent, 2692 02:11:36,400 --> 02:11:38,280 Speaker 1: you kind of try to run through your head, all right, 2693 02:11:38,320 --> 02:11:41,280 Speaker 1: how many of those really young rookie or backup quarterbacks 2694 02:11:41,280 --> 02:11:43,600 Speaker 1: who are filling in for injured qbs, which there seemed 2695 02:11:43,600 --> 02:11:45,800 Speaker 1: to be a lot of thus far this season. Are 2696 02:11:45,840 --> 02:11:47,800 Speaker 1: some of them? Were some of them on the road? 2697 02:11:48,200 --> 02:11:51,920 Speaker 1: And was that the issue? So yeah, I mean there's 2698 02:11:51,960 --> 02:11:53,680 Speaker 1: got to be something at work there, because that's very 2699 02:11:53,760 --> 02:11:56,640 Speaker 1: rare to see home teams sweep in a given week, 2700 02:11:56,800 --> 02:11:59,560 Speaker 1: especially when there's that many games. Eleven games all went 2701 02:11:59,600 --> 02:12:02,680 Speaker 1: to the home side. That's unusual. Bills are unbeaten on 2702 02:12:02,720 --> 02:12:05,440 Speaker 1: the road this year, you know, right, Yeah, going to Cleveland, 2703 02:12:05,480 --> 02:12:08,960 Speaker 1: which they'll have some fans here, but it'll be some 2704 02:12:09,280 --> 02:12:12,600 Speaker 1: fans will they will It'll be a partisan Cleveland crowd though, 2705 02:12:12,640 --> 02:12:15,320 Speaker 1: don't kid yourself, right Yeah, And it's can be a 2706 02:12:15,360 --> 02:12:17,360 Speaker 1: difficult place to play. But I think I get the 2707 02:12:17,400 --> 02:12:19,360 Speaker 1: sense as the season moves along, and I mentioned right 2708 02:12:19,400 --> 02:12:21,480 Speaker 1: at the top of the show, it's a long year. Um, 2709 02:12:21,720 --> 02:12:23,440 Speaker 1: it's almost like this team needs to get back on 2710 02:12:23,520 --> 02:12:25,600 Speaker 1: the road and kind of rack up more wins on 2711 02:12:25,640 --> 02:12:29,160 Speaker 1: the road. Like, yeah, right, I hear that. I think 2712 02:12:29,480 --> 02:12:32,120 Speaker 1: the advantage for the Bills this week is if they 2713 02:12:32,200 --> 02:12:35,080 Speaker 1: can get up early on Cleveland and the defense can 2714 02:12:35,160 --> 02:12:38,280 Speaker 1: kind of stimy that offense early on, they will get 2715 02:12:38,360 --> 02:12:40,800 Speaker 1: the crowd to turn on the Browns. Yeah, they will 2716 02:12:40,920 --> 02:12:43,560 Speaker 1: turn on them. It will It will get ugly very fast. 2717 02:12:43,680 --> 02:12:45,760 Speaker 1: Because if the way the season has gone thus far, 2718 02:12:46,200 --> 02:12:49,680 Speaker 1: and if they believe that Sunday's game is turning out 2719 02:12:49,720 --> 02:12:53,480 Speaker 1: in much the same way, it's gonna get ugly. I mean, 2720 02:12:53,560 --> 02:12:55,920 Speaker 1: it's gonna get bad. There. The boo birds will be out, 2721 02:12:56,320 --> 02:12:59,040 Speaker 1: There'll be people wearing bags over their heads, They'll be 2722 02:12:59,160 --> 02:13:03,360 Speaker 1: people with fire ready kitchen signs. So that opportunity exists 2723 02:13:03,440 --> 02:13:05,120 Speaker 1: for the Bills. You jump on the Browns early, you 2724 02:13:05,160 --> 02:13:07,840 Speaker 1: could turn their own crowd against them. Josh Allen versus 2725 02:13:07,920 --> 02:13:11,920 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield for the first eighteen draft class angle. There 2726 02:13:12,000 --> 02:13:14,240 Speaker 1: we like that, right, And six months ago at this time, 2727 02:13:14,320 --> 02:13:17,360 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield was the toast of the NFL. Not so much. 2728 02:13:17,440 --> 02:13:21,040 Speaker 1: Now he was the cat's me out and now nothing. 2729 02:13:21,080 --> 02:13:23,480 Speaker 1: Now they're making fun of what he's dressing like after games. 2730 02:13:23,640 --> 02:13:27,120 Speaker 1: Really like yesterday, you know, he's got his mustache and 2731 02:13:27,480 --> 02:13:29,640 Speaker 1: he's got his trench coat on. I mean, he looked 2732 02:13:29,640 --> 02:13:31,680 Speaker 1: like a guy. He looked like a Columbo. It was like, 2733 02:13:31,840 --> 02:13:34,560 Speaker 1: what what is he doing? And apparently we found out 2734 02:13:34,640 --> 02:13:38,240 Speaker 1: he shaved three separate times during the weekends, like he 2735 02:13:38,600 --> 02:13:41,320 Speaker 1: had stubble before the game, shaved that off before the 2736 02:13:41,400 --> 02:13:44,440 Speaker 1: game started and then had a fu Man chew shaved 2737 02:13:44,480 --> 02:13:46,920 Speaker 1: the fu Man chew off before the postgame press conference. 2738 02:13:47,080 --> 02:13:50,080 Speaker 1: So this is just another example of the Browns thinking 2739 02:13:50,480 --> 02:13:54,240 Speaker 1: about all the wrong things. Think about going one to oh, 2740 02:13:54,600 --> 02:13:56,640 Speaker 1: not about what your mustache looks like or what clates 2741 02:13:56,640 --> 02:13:59,080 Speaker 1: you're wearing. We'll have Chris on the show later this 2742 02:13:59,120 --> 02:14:03,160 Speaker 1: week to amplify those thoughts, those pregame analysis thoughts pretty amplified. 2743 02:14:03,440 --> 02:14:07,400 Speaker 1: Production assistants George Blast, Jeff Coltenick, Thomas Homander, Kelly Rude, 2744 02:14:07,480 --> 02:14:10,720 Speaker 1: j j Teredo, Kevin Cartis, James robol Our, producer Jane Harris. 2745 02:14:10,920 --> 02:14:13,480 Speaker 1: We'll see tomorrow. Steve's back tomorrow. One Bill's Live presented 2746 02:14:13,480 --> 02:14:17,560 Speaker 1: by Kalida Health on Buffalo Bill's Radio. Where'd you read 2747 02:14:17,600 --> 02:14:17,920 Speaker 1: about all
