1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 1: Oh Green Time, Steve Flaspers Times Done. All were welcome

2
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 1: to another edition of One Bill's Live Steve Tasker along

3
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 1: with Maddie Glab back here with you on a Tuesday.

4
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: We knew that it would happen. After we got off

5
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 1: the air yesterday noon to three, we started finding out

6
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 1: what was going on in the owners meetings. They offered

7
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: the NFL players zero games, zero preseason games they have

8
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: to play in, and uh, it looks like that to me. Maddie,

9
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,239
Speaker 1: first of all, welcome back. It's good to see you.

10
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 1: It offered me. It's like a real glimmer of hope

11
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: that man, we're headed into training camp. We're gonna get

12
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: started pretty soon. This is true, and we were all

13
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: also wrong. I mean, we were talking about how we

14
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: thought that nothing would come out of this meeting, no

15
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,759
Speaker 1: new news would come out of this NFL and owners meeting,

16
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: But quite a few things did. We found out no

17
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: preseason games. We found out there's going to be daily

18
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 1: testing for the first two weeks, and if the positive

19
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: rate is less than five percent, then they're going to

20
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: go to testing every other day. After the fourteen straight

21
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: days of testing. We also found out there's going to

22
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: be a in acclamation period that's went from seven days

23
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 1: to eighteen days yesterday. So quite a few things have

24
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: been figured out. But we have been told these were

25
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: the easy things to figure out, and the harder conversations

26
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 1: are coming, and those are the conversations surrounding money. Yeah,

27
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: it does seem like this was kind of a no brainer, right.

28
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 1: I mean, give the guys an acclimation process, let them

29
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: ramp up to it, cut back on the preseason games

30
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: and you know, get started, start testing them as often

31
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: as you can. And then when it gets down to

32
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: the point where there's just you know, maybe nobody positive,

33
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: and then you test them every other day. That all

34
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 1: makes really good sense. In fact, you're part of this.

35
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 1: You were in tier What tier are you in? Our

36
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 1: little uh? I am in tier three, so so you

37
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: had to start getting tested. Yes, so I have started

38
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: my testing process. We have to pass two negative tests

39
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: and then we're allowed to go into the office. But

40
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: I am not allowed to be around tier one employees

41
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: or Tier two employees. So obviously Tier one are the

42
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 1: players and the staff, and Tier two people are essential

43
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: to the players and the staff. So fortunately a lot

44
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 1: of my friends I won't get to be around at

45
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: least in training camp. Well, we'll have to wave to

46
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: each other from a distance feed or something like that. So, yeah,

47
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 1: I'm part of the other employees. I'm not even in

48
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: a tier. I'm It's kind of where I belong though,

49
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, what am I gonna do? You

50
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: can be outside at practice. You're allowed to be at practice.

51
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 1: No I can't. I'm not three O three O. That

52
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: means Does that mean I have to go to practice?

53
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: That mean I actually have to go to practice? Well,

54
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: if you want to, you're more than welcome. Just trust

55
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: your observations and stuff and go from there. Yet we

56
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: also so we got that going on. We're all starting

57
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,679
Speaker 1: to wind up for training camp. That's happening. It's a

58
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: bum or too, because I was really enjoy working from home. Um,

59
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: the guys are kind of come in that now. Ian

60
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: Rappaport wrapped this out on his on his Twitter poll.

61
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: What would you know? What's testing in physicals? It's going

62
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: to be testing in physicals for five days. That's their

63
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: latest ramp This is the NFL's latest ramp up proposal,

64
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: testing in physicals for five or six days strength and

65
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: conditioning plus walkthroughs through day twelve, so they'd be doing

66
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: that right through. They give him the thirteenth day off,

67
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: light him rest, then ramp up with helmets through day eighteen.

68
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: From for five days with just helmets. Day nineteen they

69
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 1: would get off, and then the twentieth day the pads

70
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: go on and they start playing football, and the players

71
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: are gonna get as you said, receive. They're gonna daily

72
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: tests for the first two weeks of their time back

73
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 1: with the with the players and with the tip coaches.

74
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 1: Now Tier one is the coaches and the players, that's it.

75
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: Tier two is like the equipment staff and the medical

76
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: staff and the guys who actually have to be in

77
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: it with those guys, the coaches and players all the

78
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: time anyway, So they're Tier two, and then everybody else

79
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: falls away after that, and there are certain limits every

80
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,039
Speaker 1: day as to who can be in the building and

81
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 1: that kind of thing. They're they're really I would I

82
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: would anticipate, Maddie, and you can give us a heads

83
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: up on this when you go back. They are going

84
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 1: to have that place buttoned up tight. Oh yeah, definitely.

85
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: They're not going anybody in the players as safe as possible,

86
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 1: in the coaching staff, as safe as possible, and hey,

87
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: we both know coach McDermott. We both know how much

88
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 1: he cares about the health and safety of his players.

89
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:16,679
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it's gonna be interesting walking into those

90
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: hallways and that building come training camp. I mean, things

91
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: are going to be blocked off. We're not going to

92
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: be allowed in certain hallways, We're not going to be

93
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 1: allowed in places that we're supposed to go. And I'm

94
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: speaking on behalf of Tier three people because we're not

95
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: allowed to come into contact with Tier one or Tier two.

96
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: And I am totally okay with that. I'm gonna miss

97
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 1: being able to say hey to the players and the

98
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 1: coaching staff and have those conversations. But if this is

99
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: what needs to happen for everybody to be safe and

100
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 1: healthy and free of COVID, I am all for it.

101
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: I wonder how these players are going to feel after

102
00:05:56,040 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: fourteen days of straight testing, because it is doable, but

103
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 1: it is not a comfortable feeling. I mean, after two

104
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 1: straight days of getting that swab put up your nose,

105
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: it is an interesting feeling that I don't think anybody's

106
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: going to get used to. So I'm sure after fourteen

107
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: straight days, hopefully the rate is below five percent and

108
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,479
Speaker 1: they can move to every other day. I'm sure a

109
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: lot of the players and staff who have to get

110
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: tested every day are going to be happy to say

111
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: goodbye to daily testing. Yeah, that's gonna stink. So we

112
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: got that we're getting rebbed up. The players are going

113
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 1: to start showing up. In fact, they're gonna probably start

114
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: getting tested today, right, They're gonna come start showing up

115
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills players. Yeah, I believe some of the

116
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: rookies are going to start showing up today and tomorrow,

117
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 1: and then veteran players following that. But yeah, it's gonna

118
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: be really interesting because usually, I mean in a normal year,

119
00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 1: it's it's show up and it's get started. But they're

120
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: gonna have to pass a number of tests before they're

121
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: even allowed in the building. So that first week they're

122
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: just gonna be going through daily testing and being sent

123
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 1: back home essentially because they won't be allowed inside the

124
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: building just like me, until they pass negative on those

125
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: test results. And they're getting those results back very quickly.

126
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: I took my first test yesterday morning, and I got

127
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: my results back late last night or early this morning,

128
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: so it was less than twenty four hours to get

129
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: those results and I'm not even a player. You're negative, right,

130
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: your test was negative. My first one was negative. So

131
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: today I got my second one this morning, so hopefully

132
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: that one's negative two, and then I will be allowed

133
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: in the building. I believe next week, and I believe

134
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: I will also have to do weekly testing. Right. Wow, Okay,

135
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: so I'm glad. I want to I don't want to

136
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: go back to work because I had I got tested too,

137
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: and I know the swab thing is like less than pleasant.

138
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: I'm not I'll just stay home. We gotta We're gonna

159
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: I don't want to get too carried away on this

160
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,839
Speaker 1: now because this is this is a fun topic because

161
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: I had I went back. Did you go back? Have

162
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: you ever tried to go back? Or maybe you did,

163
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: or maybe you have a website that you go to

164
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,439
Speaker 1: and you you cheat and just read it off somebody?

165
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: Did you go how do you get a list of

166
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks and head coaches in the NFL? Maddie, I

167
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: just went through and wrote them all down right before

168
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: we got a right how many did you have to

169
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: go look for? I had to go look for a

170
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 1: couple of the new I didn't. I did because I

171
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: was like, Maddie, We're just gonna do this for memory.

172
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: You got this. You can name all the head coaches

173
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: and all the quarterbacks, and it's like, yeah, I know

174
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: all of their names, but wait, is he still there?

175
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: I forgot. I couldn't remember was Anthony Flynn and Mike Zimmer.

176
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: I couldn't remember those guys. Had to go back and

177
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: look for him. You know, I remember guys like Cliff

178
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: Kingsbury and Matt Lafleur, and you know all these guys

179
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 1: that were new. Is Zach Taylor? You know they were

180
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: new then. But I know Anthony Lynn and I couldn't

181
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: remember his name. I could picture his face. Mike Zimmer.

182
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: Everybody knows Mike Zimmer. He's been in Minnesota for now

183
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: a handful of years. So it was weird for me.

184
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: Which ones I couldn't remember. And the quarterbacks that was

185
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: a little harder, particularly like Denver, the guys have been

186
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: in the league for a while. Totally easy, but yeah,

187
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: players like Drew Locke and Joe Burrow and Teddy Bridgewater.

188
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: I had the second guest myself a couple of times, right,

189
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: and then he got Tyrod Taylor and also Justin Herbert,

190
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: you know, and Brian Fitzpatrick and to a tang of Boloa.

191
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: So that'll be fun. We'll do that at one o'clock

192
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 1: and then at two o'clock we've got Cynthia Freeland coming

193
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,599
Speaker 1: on from NFL Network. She's going to come on and

194
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: talk to us about her what she's been hearing about,

195
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: the callback, the return to work as it were going

196
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: on the National Football League. It's let's see that then

197
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: also keep keeping going about getting back to work this.

198
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 1: George Atala, assistant executive director of External Affairs at the NFLPA.

199
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: He said the points of discussion between the NFL and

200
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 1: the NFLPA, the NFL didn't offer offer up any preseason games.

201
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: They had the right to set those or not under

202
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 1: the CBA already. They didn't have to talk about that

203
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: with the with the players. They could do that no

204
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: matter what. But the NFL decided to wipe those off

205
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 1: the board. And they didn't concede on health or any

206
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: safety issues, but they implemented the best protocols together with

207
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,559
Speaker 1: the NFLPA. It wasn't a concession by the NFL. It

208
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: was more of a cooperation, a cooperative effort on behalf

209
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 1: of the NFL and the in any players union. Uh.

210
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: And then he said goes on to say, of course

211
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: our union had to advocate hard for all of these

212
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: protections because everyone wants to start and most importantly, finish

213
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 1: a full season. But the fact is we all conceded

214
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 1: to a virus that is still ramping in our country.

215
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 1: Crassly put no protections, no games, no dollars. Bargaining is

216
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 1: often like that. It's not linear. Players still have to

217
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: fight hard for seemingly obvious things, and even when they

218
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: win them, people will quip it was easy. And the

219
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: fact check is he says it was not easy. He says,

220
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: ps wear a mask, thank you. So there's a lot

221
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: going on, and you're right. And when it comes out

222
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: like this, when they're gonna do no preseason games, they're

223
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: not going to do. They're gonna do testing for every

224
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 1: day for two weeks and then ease off of that.

225
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 1: When you're talking about an entity the size and power

226
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: of the National Football League, they don't give anything away.

227
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 1: And even if it seems obvious, the players still have

228
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 1: to fight for it because whatever the NFL does, even

229
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: if they you know, for instance, if one of their

230
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: teams changes their nickname, it's a it's a multimillion dollar

231
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: endeavor that's going to have an economic impact, and so

232
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 1: they just don't change very much. And whether it's the

233
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: CBA or not, the NFL just doesn't change. So there

234
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 1: it was. Yeah, there's no question the NFL players had

235
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: to go in there with you know, hammers and and

236
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,719
Speaker 1: bang this and bang the NFL into submitting, you know,

237
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 1: because the NFL is not going to do it. They'd

238
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: just say, no, we're just gonna keep going on. Thanks,

239
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 1: you know, and the players got to go, wait a minute,

240
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: you know, say it's hard, it's hard to get this

241
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: stuff done. But they did it and got and good

242
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: for them and it'll be in the NFL reportedly. Did

243
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 1: you see the price tag on testing? Yeah, it was

244
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: projected to be one hundred million dollars for the I

245
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: guess that would be the initial fourteen day period of

246
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: straight testing, but I wonder what that what that would

247
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 1: be if it extends beyond fourteen days, and just what

248
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: that price tag is going to look like after we

249
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: look back on the year and see how much testing

250
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 1: had to happen over you know, the next six months

251
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: or over an entire season if we have to test

252
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: in to the playoffs into the end of the season. Yeah,

253
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: NFL Pro Football Talk on NBC Sports, they came out

254
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: and they took a stab out and they said the

255
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: NFL will play be playing plenty of money to do

256
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: so for these tests and it goes reported Monday PFT

257
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: Reporter on Monday that bio Reference laboratories will be charging

258
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: a flat feet covering up to one hundred and twenty

259
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 1: tests per team per day, with extra tests available at

260
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: a buck twenty five each one hundred and twenty five each.

261
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: I say a buck twenty five, hundred and twenty five each.

262
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 1: The teams are going to play one thirty second of

263
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: the total fee, and they will individually play pay for

264
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: extra tests that they require. It's gonna it's about seventy

265
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: five million bucks for the season for everybody, plus whatever

266
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: they pay for extra tests. That's that's a lot of money.

267
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: That's two and a half million bucks a pop for

268
00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: It's a lot of money. But it's better than putting

269
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 1: stoppage on the season. Yeah, it's better better than throwing

270
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: the brakes on. And that's what you know. So, yeah,

271
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: you're right. So it's gonna be seven. Yeah, that's what

272
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: you gotta do. And they got And it's interesting too

273
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: that this company is gonna do you know, flat fee,

274
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 1: and we'll do it flat fee for all these tests

275
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty tests per team per day, and

276
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: then you can buy extra ones at one hundred and

277
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: twenty five dollars per test each. I'm sure the creator

278
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: of Bioreference Laboratories is really happy that they're gonna make

279
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 1: this much money from these tests for the year. Yeah.

280
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: Now he's cracking the whip on his people saying, you've

281
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: got to do more testing, so we can do it

282
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 1: and let with less money. Right, whatever whatever costs we

283
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: cut on our end is money in our pocket, which

284
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: is what everybody does in business. That's that's amazing though.

285
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: That's good for them, bioo Reference Laboratories, Bioreference Laboratories. Okay,

286
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: I gotta remember that there's there's a joke in there

287
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 1: somewhere for somewhere down the line. When when our guys

288
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 1: when we get when we get a false positive and

289
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: Josh Allen can't play because of a false positive test,

290
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:12,239
Speaker 1: Bioreference Laboratories is gonna get a rock through their front window. Okay,

291
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: that's Jasker Mannie glad. We're here here till three o'clock.

292
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna go when we get to twelve thirty, we're

293
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 1: gonna go down. We're gonna go to camp count down.

294
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: Which veteran player is going to have a career year

295
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: this year. It's kind of fun to think about. But

296
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: the bigger question of the day is where do you

297
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: rank Josh Allen and Sean McDermott as a head coach

298
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: quarterback duo in the National Football League. I'll tell you

299
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: this much. It doesn't always happen because people tend to

300
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: forget about the head coaches. Maddie and I don't want

301
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 1: to get into this right now because I'm gonna save

302
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: my ammo for when Brownie joins us at one o'clock.

303
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: But it's hard to quantify what the head coach does

304
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: and how much he helps the quarterback. So it's really

305
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: a perception of what it is. And you get some

306
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 1: of these guys like Tom Brady and Bruce Arians both

307
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 1: of them have been successful apart, but we don't know

308
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: what they're gonna how they're gonna work together. They've never

309
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: they've never played or coach together. So there's a lot

310
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: of that going in there, and a lot of it

311
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: his perception, So we'll get into that as well. But

312
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 1: where do you rank Josh Allen Sean McDermott among the

313
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 1: coaches in the head coach quarterback duos in the National

314
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 1: Football League? And why one through eight, nine through sixteen,

315
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 1: seventeen through twenty four, or twenty five to thirty two.

316
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: Those are the number of teams in the league. Rank

317
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 1: them in that eight group of eight where you think

318
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: they were. Then the fun part, Maddie comes when you

319
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 1: start thinking about who you're ranking ahead of them and

320
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,359
Speaker 1: behind them and just behind him. That gets difficult. That

321
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: gets really difficult because you know, we know our two

322
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 1: guys really well, but it'd be interesting to see where

323
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: our fans think they're that. Our guys, you know, deserve

324
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: to be ranked, right. What are your thoughts on McDermott

325
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: and Josh Allen. I think i'd ranked them in. I

326
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 1: was trying to rank some of these guys before we

327
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 1: got on air and didn't get through all of them,

328
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: but I started ranking, Okay, who are just like the

329
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 1: duos that I'm just like Wolf, This is not the best.

330
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: So I ranked those first the bottom of the pack,

331
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,400
Speaker 1: and then I went to the top of the pack

332
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 1: and was like, Okay, these are these are the best

333
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 1: in the league. So I think I would rank Sean

334
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 1: McDermott and Josh Allen in the nine through sixteen category,

335
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 1: which I'm sure a bulk of the people would guess

336
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: as well or would choose as well. But another interesting

337
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 1: point of the conversation is you have offensive head coaches

338
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 1: and you have defensive head coaches, and Sean McDermott is

339
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: a defensive minded head coach, and so what does that

340
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: pairing of the two really look like, Because, yeah, Sean

341
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 1: McDermott walks over to the quarterbacks, probably wants to practice,

342
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 1: but it's Brian day Ball and Ken Dorsey who are

343
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: the ones who are really involved with Josh Allen on

344
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 1: a daily basis. Sean McDermott is over by the defense,

345
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 1: usually a lot more than the offense, but that does

346
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: change week to week and how people perform on Sundays

347
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,960
Speaker 1: and then you know what needs to get fixed Monday

348
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: through Friday. But it's also interesting to think about the

349
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: veteran quarterbacks and how much of a connection they really

350
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 1: have to their coaches, because yeah, Tom Brady and Bruce

351
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: Arians are a new connection together. But Tom Brady solidified

352
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 1: himself as a quarterback. Does he really need a head

353
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 1: coach to help him? I mean, he's had so much success.

354
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 1: How much the first Arian's going to do in his

355
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 1: career for him at this point. Everybody on the team,

356
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 1: everybody else on the team, and everything else that goes

357
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: on around the quarterback is the head coach's responsibility. Whether

358
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 1: he builds the defense or builds the offense, whether he

359
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 1: gives the quarterback and offensive line, or whether he gives

360
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: him wide receivers, whether he builds up the offensive side

361
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: of the ball, helps that quarterback be successful, wildly successful

362
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 1: while neglecting the defense that is, you know, that's up

363
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 1: to the head coach. The atmosphere, the locker room, the

364
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: chemistry on the team, the team building, the draft, the

365
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 1: practice schedules, everything that goes into making that team. The

366
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:13,679
Speaker 1: head coach has a much more vast reach than the

367
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,119
Speaker 1: quarterback does. Certainly we see the quarterback on Sunday and

368
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 1: it's a result of his hard work and effort of

369
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,360
Speaker 1: getting ready to play. But everything else that goes on

370
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: around that guy has to do with the head coach.

371
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: And I think we as fans forget the impact and

372
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 1: forget that. You know what, guys, it's the head coach

373
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 1: that has actually more to do with the wins and

374
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 1: losses maybe than even the guy throwing the football. And

375
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:43,239
Speaker 1: I think in the Buffalo Bills situation, I don't think

376
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: there's any question that Sean McDermott is the guy is

377
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: you know, you point to him as the guy that

378
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: gets that team going, and you know, is this big

379
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: a reason for them being having ten wins last year?

380
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 1: As Josh Allen was, that's kind of where you have

381
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: to rank, rank all of that. Even this team was

382
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 1: in purgatory for twenty years before Sean McDermott showed up,

383
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 1: and now you know, everybody wants to see him play.

384
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 1: I mean, they're they're a really good football team. They

385
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 1: were really good last year, and they were really good

386
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: two years ago, surprisingly good two years ago. Sean mcdermot's

387
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 1: getting a reputation for me, he's he earned it of

388
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 1: getting the most out of a roster, no matter who's

389
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 1: on it. And that's what a head coach should do.

390
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: So when you know, when you talk about that, you

391
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 1: can talk about head coach and quarterback duos. It's easy

392
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: to think too much about the guy that you see

393
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 1: play every Sunday, not the guy that's over there talking

394
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 1: into the microphone or having the headset on, because a

395
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,640
Speaker 1: lot goes into that. So I'm I don't think there's

396
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: any question. I think Sean McDermott is the heavyweight in

397
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 1: the Josh Allen Sean McDermott duo. I think he's starting

398
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 1: to be respected that way in the National Football League

399
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 1: and UM and I think that would carry maybe carry

400
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 1: Josh Allen H and the two of them maybe into

401
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 1: the top eight, but certainly in the top of the

402
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: of the second tier of guys as well. They were

403
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: they were if you go by wins and losses, they've

404
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 1: they've won some games together and they're on they're on

405
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: the ascension. So it's interesting to give them that little

406
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: bump in positive vibes about where they're headed and just

407
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 1: as much as where they've been. Yeah, and the growth

408
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: that we've seen from Josh Allen from year one to

409
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: year two and the growth that's expected in year three.

410
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,400
Speaker 1: There's a lot of new coaches and new quarterbacks who

411
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,360
Speaker 1: have a lot of question marks surrounding that duo. If

412
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 1: if he's the right fit for the organization, if this

413
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,879
Speaker 1: coach is the right fit, if this quarterback is the

414
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 1: right fit for the system. And one thing that the

415
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,359
Speaker 1: Bills have on their side, not just in quarterback, but

416
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,640
Speaker 1: in almost their entire team is the continuity that they

417
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: have returning, which I think will set them far apart

418
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:12,880
Speaker 1: from other teams once training camp begins and once kickoff

419
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 1: happens in week one, they return eighty eight percent of

420
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: their snaps based off of an ESPN article that was

421
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 1: released a couple weeks ago, which is number one in

422
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 1: the NFL. So they're in a lot better position than

423
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 1: plenty other teams in the NFL with coaching staff returning,

424
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: with starters, with offense, with defense returning. It's incredible that

425
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 1: doesn't happen to teams that have had the success that

426
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,719
Speaker 1: the Bills have had. Usually when a team has a

427
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: couple years of sustained success, those coordinators start getting plucked

428
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: away for head coaching jobs, and that's probably bound to

429
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 1: happen with the Bills if they keep having that sustained success. Thankfully,

430
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: we have Brian Dayball and Leslie Frasier coming back for

431
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 1: another year in twenty twenty yeah, all that stuff is

432
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 1: really going to help Josh take another step. And and

433
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: we're already getting some some feedback on this and if

434
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: you well, we whenever we talk about Josh Hadden, we

435
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: get a lot of passionate responses um just like we

436
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 1: all know and kids kind of humorous to Bills fans now,

437
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 1: because you know, we like our guy, and you gotta

438
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 1: and there's no question you've got to spend some time

439
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,439
Speaker 1: defending him if you go out and talk to him

440
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: about other in other fan bases and things like that.

441
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: But nevertheless, on the tweet sheet from Steve Nobles. Tweet

442
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:43,360
Speaker 1: sheet brought to you by Oh wait what is it?

443
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right. Corregan Movers had Corregan Moving Systems.

444
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 1: The official equipment movers are the Buffalo Bills Corregan Moving Systems.

445
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,680
Speaker 1: Sorry about that, I could not remember that. I'm I'm

446
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 1: old anyway, Steve Nobles, Steve no tweets, he goes. I

447
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 1: vote seventeen to twenty four. I'm not saying they don't

448
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: have a strong bond, but I just do not associate

449
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: McDermott with the offense too often. He's a true head

450
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: coach and oversees everything. I believe the due of Alan

451
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 1: day ball is where I get offense, the offensive connection.

452
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: So he doesn't think there's a connection between the head

453
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:19,959
Speaker 1: coach quarterback. My thing is this, they both do different jobs,

454
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,679
Speaker 1: no question about it. But Sean McDermott's job has as

455
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,640
Speaker 1: much to do, if not more, if not more with

456
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 1: the team's wins than Josh Allen. Everything else around Josh

457
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 1: Allen has to do with the head coach and does

458
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: the quarterback benefit from it? And does and does the

459
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 1: head coach benefit from having his guy pulling the trigger.

460
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 1: I think they both should and I would put them

461
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 1: much I would put him much higher than seventeen to

462
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 1: twenty four, but that's where Steve Noble's got him. Tiffany

463
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: says this, I'm going to lock them in at number eight.

464
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 1: If any coach can pull off a successful season in

465
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, it's our coach. Josh has the potential to

466
00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: take his game to the next level. Both he and

467
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 1: Sean are probably the hardest, most dedicated professionals in the game.

468
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 1: Well there is that they both do hard work. They

469
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 1: do work hard. Sean McDermott has brought a lot to

470
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: the table in leadership and they could listen. They were

471
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: if you're going to go buy wins, they were in

472
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: the top twelve last year. So it'll be interesting to

473
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 1: see if they can continue their a and their improvement.

474
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 1: But there's no question that Josh does need to continue that. Yeah,

475
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 1: and I wonder how people are gonna look at this

476
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 1: poll and view this poll. Is it going to be

477
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: based on the head coach first, or like you're saying,

478
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 1: on the product on the field, which is the quarterback.

479
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: And if it's the quarterback, then people are probably going

480
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: to think of pairs of which there's an offensive minded

481
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: head coach as being the better pairs rather than a

482
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 1: quarterback in a defensive minded coach like coach McDermott. But

483
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 1: coach McDermott is the one who's going to get the

484
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 1: job done at the end of the day. He's he's

485
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 1: the guy running the ship. Josh Allen is a part

486
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 1: of that ship. Yeah, a lot falls on his shoulders,

487
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 1: but he's not a head coach, right. I agree with that,

488
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 1: And we got a long way to go. Steve Tasker,

489

495
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: is One Bills Live. Welcome back to One's Live. Steve

496
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: Tasker and Maddie Glab here till three o'clock. Rank start

497
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 1: talking a little bit today at this point about the

498
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 1: camp countdown. We've gotten some good news about them just

499
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: starting to roll towards opening up. Rookies are starting to

500
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 1: report get tested for the COVID virus. They're going to

501
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 1: do that for a couple of days, and then the

502
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 1: veterans will start showing up. They got this big ramp

503
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: up period of eighteen days and they'll start practicing hard

504
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,479
Speaker 1: and then if they can get and then if they

505
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: can get the testing numbers down to a certain point point,

506
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 1: then they can just test every other day, that kind

507
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 1: of thing. But since training camp, it looks like we

508
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 1: got a nice little bright spot in the cloud cover

509
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: of training camp. Looks like it's rolling towards us right

510
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: and so you've got to happen. You released another article

511
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 1: camp Down Countdown twenty twenty which veteran will have a

512
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 1: career year. This is a nice article and there's you know,

513
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 1: you could and we were talking about it in the break.

514
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: You can almost put anybody on this, but you chose

515
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: five pretty good candidates. Yeah, I mean it was hard

516
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: to make the list and even get what five six

517
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 1: guys on that list. I think you can make a

518
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: case for just about any veteran on this team that

519
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: he could have a career year just because of the

520
00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: opportunities that these veterans get on this team, whether it's

521
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 1: an offensive skill player, defensive lineman, or an offensive lineman.

522
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: I means so many of you look at this team,

523
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 1: you think that is pretty young, and it is, but

524
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 1: so many of our veterans carry this team. Yeah, and

525
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 1: that's and they've got so much continuity, so many returning

526
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: contributors coming back, and it's you can go down the list.

527
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: I think the one that interested me most that was

528
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 1: a little under my radar was John Feliciano. He's coming

529
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 1: into his sixth year. He was kind of a journeyman

530
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 1: up until last year when he comes into Buffalo, and

531
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 1: Buffalo gave him a chance to start. And and all

532
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 1: you ever heard out of Sean McDermott's mouth, the offensive

533
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 1: line coach's mouth, everybody's talking about John was how tough

534
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 1: he was, just a tough, tough competitor. He set a

535
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 1: real attitude on an offensive line that really needed a

536
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 1: new attitude after the twenty eighteen season they got man

537
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: handled all year. So Mitch Morse comes in, John Feliciano

538
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:08,959
Speaker 1: comes in, Quintin Spain comes in. The only holdover was

539
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 1: Dion Dawkins from the year before. They draft a young

540
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: guy and Cody Ford. All they got four brand new

541
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 1: starters and they needed somebody to give them an identity.

542
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 1: And I think John Feliciano did it last year. And

543
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: that offensive line was light years ahead where it was

544
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: two years ago. And the fact that they as a unit,

545
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 1: the way that they came together in just a season

546
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 1: and played that cohesive that doesn't happen for every single team.

547
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: They were also pretty healthy through the year. Yeah, you

548
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: had some guys come in and come out, whether it

549
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 1: was during a game or miss a game here there,

550
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 1: but you had the same five guys for the majority

551
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 1: of the season. And they didn't look like five players

552
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 1: who had never played next to each other before. They

553
00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: did a lot in training camp last year to make

554
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: it feel like they've been together for more than one year.

555
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: Come Week one, and you saw that John Feliciano was

556
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: somebody who all he needed was an opportunity. Uh. The

557
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 1: most games he had started before last season was just

558
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 1: four for the Raiders, and he started in all sixteen

559
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,960
Speaker 1: for the Bills. That's a that's a big difference in

560
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: what you're being asked to do and what your body

561
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 1: is being asked to do. Yeah, and it's interesting too

562
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: because last year, and I'd forgotten about this until you

563
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: just said it, they did stay healthy during the year

564
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 1: except for a tie and Seki kind of had he

565
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 1: lost five games to an ankle injury. But they were

566
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 1: rotating in anyway. So there's about you know, you knew

567
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 1: the guys you had. They didn't lose anybody for the

568
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: season or anything like that. And when they went through

569
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: training camp, you remember everybody was getting hurt. Um, Mitch

570
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 1: Morris got hurt, Quentin's was a Quintin's band got hurt,

571
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 1: all the guards and all the centers. They had like

572
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: three or four guys, and they had guys come out

573
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 1: a couple of days or people better in rest days.

574
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 1: And I remember when we were trying to figure out

575
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 1: what that five would look like and where they would be.

576
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: I had a note on my phone and we're keeping

577
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 1: track of the alignments every single day at camp and

578
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 1: it would change like four times of practice to try

579
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 1: and track, Okay, who's going to be on the left side,

580
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,400
Speaker 1: who's going to be on the right side, who are

581
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: the starters gonna be? But that helps a lot when

582
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 1: players like Time Sky came out and Mitch Morse did

583
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 1: come out for part of a game a couple of

584
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 1: times where guys had to rotate in and it was

585
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: like a seamless transition. And that's because they tried so

586
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: many different combinations during training camp last year. And what

587
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: do you think One of the guys you also mentioned

588
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: in your article was Micah Hyde, who really I think

589
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: Micah Hyde Jordan Poyer have become, you know, two of

590
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 1: the most important and defenders on the club. They lead

591
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: to secondary. Secondary has really led the defense. The defense

592
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 1: has led the entire team. And when you talk about

593
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 1: two guys that are really important that haven't had a

594
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: ripple effect. I just describe what Jordan poyr Micah Hyde

595
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 1: have done. What do you think Micah Hide's year will

596
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: look like if he does have a career year. It's

597
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 1: hard to I've written about Micah Hyde and Jordan Poyer

598
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 1: in the Camp Countdown articles, and it's hard to just

599
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: talk about one of them without mentioning the other. I

600
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: mean you, Micah Hide would not be Yes, Micah Hide

601
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: is a very talented safety. But Micah Hide would not

602
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 1: be Micah Hyde without Jordan Poyer. And I think it's

603
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 1: the two of them that allow each other to excel

604
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: at a very very high level. I mean being a

605
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 1: safety in the NFL, Yes, you cover part of the field,

606
00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,360
Speaker 1: but you succeed because of what the person next to

607
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 1: you can do and how you can work together in tandem.

608
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 1: And I think every single year we've seen these two

609
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 1: add more weapons to their arsenal of confusing offenses, of

610
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 1: lining up on the field where you don't normally see

611
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 1: safety's line up to then just change positions as the

612
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: ball is snapped. And I think as they get to

613
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 1: know offenses more and more year after year and get

614
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 1: to understand each other better, they just keep adding things

615
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:38,439
Speaker 1: that are unthinkable to some players to do. And with

616
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,919
Speaker 1: the position that this defense is in this season to

617
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,879
Speaker 1: have an even better season than last season, I think

618
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: that's going to allow Mica and Jordan to play a

619
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,840
Speaker 1: lot more freely because you look at the defensive line

620
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 1: and you look at what you added on the defensive

621
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 1: line and how they're going to be able to hold

622
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 1: up the pass and the rush, and how they're going

623
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 1: to be able to be probably better run stuffers than

624
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,240
Speaker 1: they were last season. And that allows freedom for Micah

625
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: and Jordan to go and cover the guys that they

626
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: need to cover, uh in order to take the ball away. Yeah,

627
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 1: this this is a group up front of those guys

628
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 1: that has gotten better. I think we did lose Jordan Phillips,

629
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:20,920
Speaker 1: we lost Shack Lawson, but they replaced him with some

630
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: quality productive guys up front and maybe not just maybe,

631
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: but they all with the Epinesza aj Epenessa showing up

632
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:34,880
Speaker 1: as well. Another year with Jordan, with at Oliver's and

633
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 1: Harrison Phillip, Harrison Phillips coming back, this should be a

634
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 1: much better defensive front in front of these safeties, which

635
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: gives them just more chances to, you know, to excel it.

636
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 1: Takes the pressure off of them. And I just I

637
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 1: really think this is a defense that could get a

638
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:56,359
Speaker 1: lot better this year. Uh and if it does, it's

639
00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 1: gonna this team becomes really really difficult to be another

640
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: guy that on your list that we want to get

641
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 1: to his Cole Beasley coming in with the second year

642
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 1: in the Billing had all those years second year with

643
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 1: the Bills, had all those years with Cowboys, and you know,

644
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 1: he's seven years with the Cowboys, and he came over

645
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 1: and he thought, Wow, he's gonna help. He's gonna and

646
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 1: he did almost exactly what they thought he would do

647
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: for Josh Allen. Yeah, and he came in with let's remember,

648
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 1: he came in with a chip on his shoulder. He

649
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 1: didn't feel like he got the respect level that he

650
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: was deserving of. And so he comes over to the

651
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,840
Speaker 1: Bills with a point to prove, and he proved that

652
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:45,239
Speaker 1: point to his former team and solidified his role with

653
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 1: the Bills. And just how sneaky of a slot receiver

654
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 1: he is. He does things that no other slot receivers

655
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 1: can do in the league, and just how he was

656
00:36:55,680 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 1: used with the Bills. You look at his recept ops

657
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,840
Speaker 1: and yards and touchdowns from his years with the Cowboys,

658
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 1: And yeah, he did have a career year in twenty

659
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 1: sixteen with the Cowboys where he had seventy five receptions

660
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 1: for eight hundred and thirty three yards and scored five touchdowns.

661
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:17,319
Speaker 1: He scored six touchdowns for the Bills last year, got

662
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 1: close to seventy five receptions, had sixty seven last season

663
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: with the Bills for seven hundred and seventy eight yards,

664
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 1: but his yards per reception was a career high last season.

665
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 1: And I think looking into this year, he has one

666
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 1: year under the belt with Josh Allen, that connection's only

667
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 1: gonna get better. It takes a year to get that

668
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 1: timing down from a young player standpoint in Josh Allen

669
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 1: to a veteran like Cole Beasley. That's only going to

670
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,320
Speaker 1: get better. And I really think the addition of Stefan

671
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 1: Diggs is going to help the entire offense. They're gonna

672
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,759
Speaker 1: be sending a lot more defenders to Stefan Diggs, So

673
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 1: that's going to open the field up four players like

674
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 1: Cole Beasley, Dawson John Brown to have success on some

675
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 1: plays they may not have had last season. Yeah, as

676
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: a player, you come in and it's they did this

677
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: last year. They got to know each other, They got

678
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: to know each other, they got to be buddies. Cole Beasley,

679
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: Josh Allen, John Brown and now Steph Diggs will come

680
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: in this year. But as you get to know and

681
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 1: get more familiar with the guys around you, particularly your

682
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 1: quarterback as a wide receiver, then you start to evolve

683
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 1: and you start to you do things without having to

684
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 1: speak to them. Your relationship gets deeper and deeper and deeper,

685
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: and you get more understanding and more understanding, you can

686
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 1: make adjustments on the fly much easier. You just become

687
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: way more efficient when you need to make a play

688
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,360
Speaker 1: that both of you know it and you both have

689
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 1: an idea of exactly the same thing of how that

690
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 1: play should be made, and it's it becomes really really

691
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 1: difficult to defend when you've got two guys that know

692
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 1: each other so well. And that evolution is going to

693
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 1: take a step forward this year with Cole Beasley and

694
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 1: Josh Allen John Brown as well, and I think their

695
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: position are really gonna help Steph Diggs acclimate faster to

696
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 1: get to that point as well. So it's gonna be

697
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 1: fun to watch this offense. I think they're gonna score

698
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 1: more points than they have in the past. And I

699
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 1: think Josh Allen, if he can come in and take

700
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: one more step exactly like the step he took last year,

701
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:20,919
Speaker 1: this is a team that's gonna be really, really hard

702
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 1: to beat. Steve Tasker, Matty Glab. That was our camp

713
00:39:52,000 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 1: Live presented by Clyda Health on Buffalo Bills Radio. Welcome

714
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: back to Bill's Lives. Steve task along with Maddie Glab. Maddie,

715
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: did you see the article where they're starting to think

716
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 1: about the NFL is about letting with all the protests

717
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,359
Speaker 1: and about the social injustice that has happened in our

718
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: country and that we're trying to get rid of and

719
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 1: bring justice to people. The NFL is closer to maybe

720
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 1: allowing their players to wear decals for honoring some of

721
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 1: the victims of social injustice. They might might do that,

722
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 1: have a player will have a decal on the back

723
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,720
Speaker 1: of his helmet or something of that, of that something

724
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, I saw that. I think that's awesome.

725
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:49,320
Speaker 1: I think that's a great idea to show honor to

726
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: these victims and to put it out there in the

727
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:59,720
Speaker 1: open on national TV by putting it on your helmet.

728
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:06,359
Speaker 1: This matters, and this should be a priority for everyone. Yeah.

729
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: And I'm glad that they don't let that conversation die,

730
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 1: you know, because just just keep after it until something's done. Yeah.

731
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: I think if you can wear a decal on your helmet,

732
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 1: that you should another thing too. And there's a how

733
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: about this, there's a little how about this for a

734
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,879
Speaker 1: quick debate? You're ready, Yeah, let's do it. I'm gonna

735
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,800
Speaker 1: make a bet with you. You can take the Kansas

736
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,839
Speaker 1: City Chiefs to win the Super Bowl or everybody else.

737
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:36,439
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say everybody else. I know the Kansas City

738
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 1: Chiefs are pretty dang good. And we've been talking about

739
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: continuity and how the Bills return a lot of players

740
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:48,440
Speaker 1: will help. Guess who returns the second most players. The

741
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs the Super Bowl champions, But I think

742
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 1: it's gonna be somebody else. Yeah, it's too hard to repeat. Yeah,

743
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,800
Speaker 1: I think you know that off it's happened and stuff,

744
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,400
Speaker 1: and they've got enough guys they could do it, no

745
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: question about it. But it's so difficult to bounce back

746
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 1: and do that. And he got thirty one teams. And

747
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 1: you're talking about teams. They're not just talking about, you know,

748
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,000
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals. You know, you're talking about the Bills

749
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 1: who are on the rise. You're talking about the New

750
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints who have been on the doorstep for half

751
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,200
Speaker 1: a decade or a decade to more. You're talking about

752
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who with Tom Brady, who have

753
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,360
Speaker 1: a great team. You're talking about Pittsburgh Steelers and Ben Roethlisberger.

754
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:31,800
Speaker 1: You're talking about the MVP of the league, Lamar Jackson

755
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:38,400
Speaker 1: and the Baltimore Ravens, the Patriots, all of these teams,

756
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:43,719
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks, Yeah, the Niners Ers. I mean, there's a

757
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 1: ton of really good teams out there that have every

758
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 1: reason to believe they you know, they knocked on the

759
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 1: door last year that they're gonna bust it in this year.

760
00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 1: So and the Chiefs. It's hard to stay hungry when

761
00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:00,719
Speaker 1: they were also pretty healthy last year too. Yeah, well

762
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 1: so were the Bills. I'm thinking that's not that's not

763
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 1: a completely coincidental thing. Uh, I don't think. I don't

764
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 1: know what the what you can do differently than everybody

765
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 1: does that, you know, to stay healthy. But the Bills

766
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:15,520
Speaker 1: seem to be doing something. They've been healthy for a

767
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,879
Speaker 1: couple of years now, and I think it's been really

768
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 1: interesting to watch. But so you'll take you'll take the

769
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 1: field rather I'm taking the field. I do think the

770
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 1: Chiefs are gonna be really good again. I think they're

771
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 1: gonna make it deep into the playoffs. But when it's

772
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 1: all said and done, I don't think they can repeat.

773
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:37,360
Speaker 1: I think, like you said, there's too many talented teams

774
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,839
Speaker 1: in the NFL right now that are right up there

775
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 1: with the Kansas City Chiefs. Yeah, the Chiefs have gotta

776
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,280
Speaker 1: you know, they got to bounce back. They gotta stay motivated,

777
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 1: they gotta play well like they have. They've got star

778
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 1: players everywhere. Their defense is a little suspect, but it's strong.

779
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 1: There's got They just resigned Chris Jones and Frank Clark.

780
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 1: They've been Tyranneth. So they've got some guys on that

781
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:07,800
Speaker 1: side of the football as well. And it's certainly easy

782
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,160
Speaker 1: to conjure up a scenario where they're just another team

783
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 1: that's too tough to be. But if if Bill Belichick

784
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,920
Speaker 1: and Tom Brady didn't repeat very much, I mean, they

785
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:21,719
Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl all the time, and I

786
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 1: don't know that they repeated like what once? Yeah, I

787
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 1: think that's really difficult to of course, they did do

788
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,880
Speaker 1: it early in their in their run as well, they repeated.

789
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,160
Speaker 1: I do think the Chiefs could win a couple more over,

790
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 1: you know, five years, But to repeat, yeah, not not

791
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 1: easy to do. Yeah, it's hard to stay hungry when

792
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: you've just gotten fat, you know, off winning. So I

793
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 1: don't know if you know if they'll be able to

794
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 1: I'm taking that I would take the field as well.

795
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 1: So that's an interesting question. And of course, in this

796
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 1: day and age, you can bet and find somebody to

797
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 1: bet on anything. That was an interesting debate though, right, so,

798
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:03,800
Speaker 1: it's an interesting debate that would you take the field

799
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:05,320
Speaker 1: or would you take It's a little bit like in

800
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 1: the PGA back in the day, in the year two thousand,

801
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 1: would you take Tiger Woods or you just take the field.

802
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,320
Speaker 1: And now I'd kind of take Tiger you know, I

803
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,479
Speaker 1: think I would, but not here. I'll take the field

804
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,359
Speaker 1: against the Kansas City Chiefs to win the Super Bowl.

805
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:21,239

Speaker 1: coming in on a day off maybe or something or

826
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:48,319
Speaker 1: oh no, not really hit him countdown articles. So we're

827
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,359
Speaker 1: gonna write you because we got this thing. We got

828
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 1: this idea overnight about head coach quarterback combos in the NFL.

829
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: Where would Josh Allen and Sean McDermott rank. And I

830
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,759
Speaker 1: said earlier in the show, I think Sean McDermott is

831
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,879
Speaker 1: the heavyweight in that pairing right now because he took

832
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,840
Speaker 1: this whole. He took the entire franchise and put it

833
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:09,920
Speaker 1: into the playoffs two of the last three years. He

834
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,480
Speaker 1: did his first year as a head coach with a

835
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 1: roster that he was accused of tanking with, and then

836
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 1: you know, then took a step backward when they had to,

837
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:21,799
Speaker 1: you know, got the quarterback and didn't have the offensive line,

838
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:25,440
Speaker 1: got their defense, kept their defense together, and now this

839
00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 1: last year got back to the playoffs again. To me,

840
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,839
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott belongs in the top ten of the head

841
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:36,840
Speaker 1: coaching head coach in the National Football League and certainly

842
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:38,480
Speaker 1: in the top twelve in the playoffs kind of thing.

843
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 1: But just so unclear look at this pull. Are you

844
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 1: looking at the quarterback first or the head coach first?

845
00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:49,759
Speaker 1: Because we've gotten some Twitter responses that have looked at

846
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 1: Josh Allen first and then looked at Sean McDermott Moore

847
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 1: as a as a defensive minded coach, which makes the

848
00:47:57,239 --> 00:48:00,920
Speaker 1: pairing a little bit different. So how are you viewing

849
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:06,439
Speaker 1: this duo? Yeah, I'm kind of just looking across the league.

850
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:08,359
Speaker 1: When I was trying to rank this for you guys,

851
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 1: I was trying to do it strictly as a combination.

852
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:14,320
Speaker 1: Like we know the coaches all have their pluses and

853
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 1: minuses as to the quarterbacks, but how are they together

854
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 1: and is the some of those two parts better than

855
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 1: this duo or that duo. And so I do have

856
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 1: Josh and coach in the top ten just barely, So

857
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 1: I don't know where do you want to go. Do

858
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:38,600
Speaker 1: you want me to just tell you where I've got

859
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 1: them right from the start here, or do you want

860
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:43,239
Speaker 1: me to kind of run down the list? How did

861
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,279
Speaker 1: you start your list? Because I wrote them all down.

862
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 1: I didn't get through ranking everybody. But the way that

863
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:52,080
Speaker 1: I went through it is I highlighted the ones that

864
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 1: were at the bottom first. That was like, we don't

865
00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 1: even know what this is gonna look like, this is

866
00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:01,600
Speaker 1: not good. And then I did the best ones in

867
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 1: the league, and now I have the middle of the pack.

868
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 1: So how did you start breaking years? That's funny. I

869
00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:09,440
Speaker 1: actually went the opposite way because I was trying to

870
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:13,439
Speaker 1: keep it positive, so I I only did the top

871
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:16,840
Speaker 1: sixteen and stopped there because I didn't really want to

872
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:21,920
Speaker 1: give it any extra thought. Ranking the bottom half of

873
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 1: the barrel. I didn't really have too much interest in that,

874
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:28,319
Speaker 1: So I probably started where a lot of you guys did,

875
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 1: which was Mahomes and Andy Reid. You know, you got

876
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl title on the resume and MVP and

877
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:39,840
Speaker 1: one of the most prolific offensive scheme track records in

878
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:44,640
Speaker 1: the last twenty five thirty years for read so and

879
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:47,520
Speaker 1: those two guys are going to stay together for the

880
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:51,240
Speaker 1: foreseeable future. It's more dependent on when Andy Reid decides

881
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: to retire than when Mahomes decides to stop playing after

882
00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 1: signing that mega deal. So yeah, I mean, provided there's

883
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:03,600
Speaker 1: enough to poured around Mahomes, they could win multiple Super Bowls.

884
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 1: I think they're that talented, you know, both in terms

885
00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:11,520
Speaker 1: of scheming and calling plays. After that, I went Lamar

886
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:14,320
Speaker 1: Jackson and John Harbaugh again. You know, a coach with

887
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 1: a really strong track record, Baltimore being a perennial playoff contender,

888
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:23,560
Speaker 1: Jackson the MVP last year, Harball with a Super Bowl title,

889
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:27,400
Speaker 1: And I think what the Ravens do great is not

890
00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:31,840
Speaker 1: only target talent in the draft, but they do a

891
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 1: great job of fitting their schemes to that talent. And

892
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:40,880
Speaker 1: I know Harbaugh had a huge assist from Greg Roman

893
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,600
Speaker 1: in that department as he completely tore up the playbook

894
00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:46,800
Speaker 1: to cater to Jackson's talents. But that's just one example,

895
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:48,600
Speaker 1: because they do it on the defensive side of the

896
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:51,800
Speaker 1: ball as well. I mean, Matt Judon is a perfect

897
00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:54,800
Speaker 1: example at linebacker. That guy is not a fit in

898
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:58,040
Speaker 1: probably half the teams on the league, in the league,

899
00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 1: but the way that they scheme and you realize him,

900
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:03,520
Speaker 1: you know, makes him a Pro Bowl candidate. So it

901
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,200
Speaker 1: just speaks to their player development long track record. Then

902
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:10,319
Speaker 1: I went Breeze and Peyton. Those two guys just work

903
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,760
Speaker 1: hand in glove, Super Bowl title together, a prolific offense

904
00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:16,520
Speaker 1: for more than a decade. So those are my top three.

905
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:21,960
Speaker 1: And you know after and I think what I did,

906
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:28,880
Speaker 1: guys is I probably waited history and resume maybe a

907
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:34,040
Speaker 1: little bit more than potential and what lies in front

908
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:37,520
Speaker 1: of some of the younger quarterbacks. Yeah, I probably weighed

909
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:39,000
Speaker 1: that in heavier. I don't know what you did. You

910
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,440
Speaker 1: guys do that, Yeah, as I here's the thing I

911
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:45,000
Speaker 1: put like Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson at three because

912
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,440
Speaker 1: they did it with a big, strong defense when Russell

913
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:51,759
Speaker 1: Wilson's honest rookie contract and they've continued to win now

914
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,279
Speaker 1: that Russell Wilson is carrying the load and Pete Pete

915
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:58,400
Speaker 1: Carroll was responsible for making that evolution around Russell Wilson

916
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:00,920
Speaker 1: to keep that team competitive throughout and they have been.

917
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:03,719
Speaker 1: I think that that goes a long way for me.

918
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:10,760
Speaker 1: Same thing with Matt with Sean Payton and Drew Brees,

919
00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:13,280
Speaker 1: I put them at number two. Number one is obviously

920
00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:16,000
Speaker 1: Andy Reid Pat Mahomes that I'm the same with you guys.

921
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 1: Andy Reid's been doing it for a long time and

922
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:20,680
Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes has fallen into a rose garden there with

923
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,480
Speaker 1: Andy Reid. I mean, those guys are perfect for each other.

924
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:27,080
Speaker 1: Then I gave Sean Payton and Drew Brees because of

925
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:29,320
Speaker 1: the history they have of being successful. Same thing with

926
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson and Pete Carroll. Then I went with John

927
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:37,000
Speaker 1: Harbaugh and Baltimore because they are a perennial contender. And

928
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:40,200
Speaker 1: then I went to Mike Tomlin and Drew and Ben Roethlisberger.

929
00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 1: That's my top five, Ben Roethlisberger, and then Dan Quinn

930
00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:47,360
Speaker 1: and Matt Ryan. I think you look at some of

931
00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:50,120
Speaker 1: those teams who have who have had quarterbacks and that

932
00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:53,240
Speaker 1: duo that have been together for a long amount of time,

933
00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:56,880
Speaker 1: And then when I ranked the bottom, it was just

934
00:52:57,160 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 1: the question marks that have yet to even be tested.

935
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 1: So many new coaches, so many new quarterbacks, a lot

936
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:09,839
Speaker 1: of them. There's two quarterbacks that you have to talk

937
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:14,439
Speaker 1: about because who's going to win the job. But yeah,

938
00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:17,520
Speaker 1: I think Sean McDermott and Josh Allen fit in that

939
00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:22,640
Speaker 1: top ten, in that middle of the top half pack,

940
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 1: that nine to sixteen category that we put in the

941
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 1: Twitter poll. And Chris, what do you think would propel

942
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:38,279
Speaker 1: them up to a top seven? Conversation we're talking about

943
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,880
Speaker 1: who now Allen and McDermot. Yeah, because you said they

944
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:45,839
Speaker 1: were they were top ten. Yeah, I had him at nine.

945
00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:50,719
Speaker 1: Even more, Yeah, I had him at nine. And the

946
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 1: only other combinations I had because I gave you my

947
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:55,239
Speaker 1: top three, the only other combos that I had ahead

948
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,840
Speaker 1: of them were Brady and Arians. Even though that's a

949
00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:02,080
Speaker 1: new pairing. I mean the achievements are I mean Aarons

950
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 1: with half a dozen different quarterbacks in this league has

951
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:06,880
Speaker 1: been prolific. And we know Brady and then I did

952
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:10,279
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger and Tomlin, Wilson and Carol. I put Rogers and

953
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:15,399
Speaker 1: Lafleur in there, leaning heavily on Rogers obviously the fact

954
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:18,359
Speaker 1: that they went thirteen and three last year. And then

955
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 1: I put Rivers in Reich together because they have a history.

956
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,440
Speaker 1: And I still maintain that Frank was instrumental in the

957
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:29,040
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Super Bowl run as quarterbacks last year, but then

958
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:31,680
Speaker 1: it's Alan and McDermott. So what does it take to

959
00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:35,319
Speaker 1: get them up the list? It's really can Josh take

960
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 1: the next step? I think coaches resume is is what

961
00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:48,880
Speaker 1: it is. Kind of great defensive mind coaching philosophy rooted

962
00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:56,759
Speaker 1: in a family type environment and a workmanlike approach, knows

963
00:54:56,840 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 1: to the grindstone, blue collar kind of in with your

964
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,920
Speaker 1: lunch pail, do your work, you know, do it to

965
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 1: the umteenth degree, and then you know, go home to

966
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:07,080
Speaker 1: your family and come back and do it again the

967
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:11,279
Speaker 1: next day. I think that's all well and good. I

968
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:15,480
Speaker 1: don't see it changing because it does have success. So

969
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,239
Speaker 1: where the change has to happen is with Josh. So

970
00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:21,000
Speaker 1: I think he's got to take another step. I think

971
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:23,840
Speaker 1: his deep his deep ballgame has to take an uptick

972
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:28,359
Speaker 1: and then putting points on the board and finishing more

973
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 1: drives in the red zone with seven points, you know,

974
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:33,840
Speaker 1: instead of three. That's that's where it all has to

975
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,040
Speaker 1: come together for him. If this, if those guys are

976
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:37,600
Speaker 1: going to get up the ladder a little bit here,

977
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:41,080
Speaker 1: and I thought too, I put Buffalo at eleven right

978
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:44,680
Speaker 1: behind green Bay, and only because of Aaron Rodgers I

979
00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 1: think in combination. I also put him at eleven, and

980
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:51,280
Speaker 1: I put him ahead of Bill O'Brien and Deshaun Deshaun

981
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 1: Watson because of what happened in the office. I just

982
00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:58,719
Speaker 1: don't think that Bill little O'Brian has given Watson enough

983
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,560
Speaker 1: to work with Egpkins out of the mix, and you

984
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:04,359
Speaker 1: give them a broken down or an overpaid running back,

985
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:07,800
Speaker 1: I think they've taken a step backwards. And so I

986
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,919
Speaker 1: had Buffalo right at the top or the back third

987
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,960
Speaker 1: of the playoff teams from a year ago, and uh,

988
00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:16,600
Speaker 1: which is kind of where they finished, but I would

989
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:20,560
Speaker 1: move them up, but I'm with you. I put Doug

990
00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,919
Speaker 1: Peterson and Carson Wentz up there because of that Super

991
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:27,520
Speaker 1: Bowl run they had h and Ill and at number

992
00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:29,640
Speaker 1: nine that they were at number nine, And then at eight,

993
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:32,640
Speaker 1: I put San Francisco with Kyle Shanahan and Jimmy Garoppolo.

994
00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 1: They were in the Super Bowl this past year and

995
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: they've just gotten together and have hit it off. So, uh,

996
00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:41,279
Speaker 1: those are the teams that I've got up ahead of Buffalo. UM.

997
00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:44,279
Speaker 1: I did put Frank Reich and Philip Rivers with their

998
00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:47,480
Speaker 1: experience at number seven, which is a the newest pairing

999
00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:50,400
Speaker 1: that is the highest on my list, no question about it.

1000
00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:53,520
Speaker 1: But I think those Brady and Arians then I haven't

1001
00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:58,880
Speaker 1: got them on there yet. Eleven or twelve. Yeah, I

1002
00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 1: don't know how they carry has done it with a

1003
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:03,920
Speaker 1: lot of guys. I mean, he's done it with Roethlisberger,

1004
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:06,760
Speaker 1: he did it with Manning, he did it with Carson Palmer,

1005
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,000
Speaker 1: and then he even did it with Jamis Winston. Um,

1006
00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:15,400
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's that's an impressive track. Bruce Arey

1007
00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:18,960
Speaker 1: is just and let's face it, in that combination is

1008
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:22,880
Speaker 1: he's got an impressive track record. He's the weak link

1009
00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:27,160
Speaker 1: in that quarterback head coach duo. Well yeah, but yeah,

1010
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:30,680
Speaker 1: you're comparing him against the Holy Grail. That's right, That's

1011
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,680
Speaker 1: that's right you are, And in a quarterback who we

1012
00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:35,840
Speaker 1: don't know, who's never played for a different head coach

1013
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:38,320
Speaker 1: in the NFL, who's never played for anybody else, who's

1014
00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 1: never who hasn't even had a practice with this team yet. Um, listen,

1015
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:46,360
Speaker 1: you know, I no question they've got they've got some

1016
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:49,760
Speaker 1: even at their advanced ages, both of them, they've got

1017
00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 1: some potential. But I have seen I don't know about it.

1018
00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:55,320
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna put him in the top ten just

1019
00:57:55,920 --> 00:58:01,000
Speaker 1: because I got to see him work together. Let's HuLos,

1020
00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:03,880
Speaker 1: who are some new duos that you guys have in

1021
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:07,760
Speaker 1: the upper half of the league besides Arians and Tom

1022
00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:10,720
Speaker 1: Brady and Reich and Philip Rivers. Who are some new

1023
00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:13,800
Speaker 1: duos that you would rank up there as well? I'll

1024
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:18,280
Speaker 1: beg you. Bill Belichick surprises some people with Cam. I

1025
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:22,160
Speaker 1: found it interesting that Peter King's column on Monday was

1026
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:26,240
Speaker 1: talking about how people shouldn't assume Cam has the job

1027
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:30,600
Speaker 1: at the outset just because he hasn't He hasn't done

1028
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:33,840
Speaker 1: an install, he hasn't run a play, he hasn't thrown

1029
00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:37,520
Speaker 1: to any of the guys on that roster, and I

1030
00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: don't know, to me it's Cam, But I found that interesting.

1031
00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:45,840
Speaker 1: And we know that Belichick doesn't care what people think

1032
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:48,800
Speaker 1: it should be when it's dealing with his team, So

1033
00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:51,480
Speaker 1: I'm kind of interested to see how it does folds

1034
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:53,840
Speaker 1: a little bit, and what Belichick wants it to look

1035
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:58,160
Speaker 1: like is more important than who's got to take who's

1036
00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:00,200
Speaker 1: got making it look like something else. Yeah, you know,

1037
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:04,000
Speaker 1: I would get Vic Banjie on Drew lock up there

1038
00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:07,560
Speaker 1: based off what we saw last season. You want to

1039
00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:09,480
Speaker 1: go to half of the league, you go top half

1040
00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:12,439
Speaker 1: of the league. Many in top in top half, Yeah,

1041
00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:14,200
Speaker 1: I would put it. I would put him at like

1042
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:20,040
Speaker 1: maybe sixteen. I didn't rank one through thirty two, but

1043
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:24,520
Speaker 1: I would say that he's he's one of the newer duos.

1044
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:29,040
Speaker 1: Those two are that I would feel safe ranking up

1045
00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:32,080
Speaker 1: higher than other new duos if we're just talking about

1046
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:34,360
Speaker 1: dwer pairings. Yeah, that's true. And I don't know if

1047
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:36,720
Speaker 1: i'd put him that high because just because I don't

1048
00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:39,440
Speaker 1: trust Drew Lock that much and Vic Fango as well.

1049
00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:41,480
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you this, what where did you rank

1050
00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:44,840
Speaker 1: Mike Rabel and Ryan Tannehill after their second half of

1051
00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:47,280
Speaker 1: last year? I didn't have him in my top six.

1052
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:50,120
Speaker 1: I don't Yeah, I don't know if. I don't know

1053
00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:55,600
Speaker 1: if that's the one his passing got him the championship again.

1054
00:59:56,400 --> 00:59:59,640
Speaker 1: As soon as they hit the field together, they were

1055
00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:02,440
Speaker 1: on fire. They were on fire as soon as they

1056
01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:05,120
Speaker 1: hit the field together last year. I'm calling lightning in

1057
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 1: a bottle until Tannehill proves me otherwise. I'm gonna tell

1058
01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:12,000
Speaker 1: you the new combination that I am extremely high on now,

1059
01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:14,040
Speaker 1: I didn't rank them as high as Brady and Arians

1060
01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:19,320
Speaker 1: or Rivers and Reich. But Kyler Murray and Cliff Kingsbury

1061
01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:22,360
Speaker 1: they might be a new combination in the NFL. But

1062
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:25,600
Speaker 1: obviously we know that they were together in college for

1063
01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:29,080
Speaker 1: a period of time, and I really feel like they

1064
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:32,360
Speaker 1: have a relationship that is very similar to that of

1065
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:35,880
Speaker 1: Breeze and Sean Payton. Just they work hand in glove.

1066
01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:39,000
Speaker 1: And I gotta tell you, guys, I watched four or

1067
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:42,360
Speaker 1: five games at the Cardinals last year and now knowing

1068
01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:45,480
Speaker 1: he's got DeAndre Hopkins there along with Larry Fitzgerald and

1069
01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:49,720
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk, you know, in some running back talent and

1070
01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:54,640
Speaker 1: a better line. I think Murray in a couple of years,

1071
01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:57,200
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he will be an MVP, but I

1072
01:00:57,320 --> 01:01:00,640
Speaker 1: think he'll get consideration for it because the way he

1073
01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:02,800
Speaker 1: throws a ball for a man his size is pretty

1074
01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:06,000
Speaker 1: darned special. And that's gonna be a tough game for

1075
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:09,840
Speaker 1: the Bills this year on the road. Yeah, Yeah, that's

1076
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:11,800
Speaker 1: that's there. Are gonna be good because they do things

1077
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:14,760
Speaker 1: a little differently, no question about it. Kyler Murray brings

1078
01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:17,640
Speaker 1: something to the Table's got a live arm. They are

1079
01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:20,080
Speaker 1: going to make some headway this year, they are getting better,

1080
01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:23,000
Speaker 1: and I think it's interesting to think about how good

1081
01:01:23,040 --> 01:01:25,440
Speaker 1: they could be in that division, because I'll tell you

1082
01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:27,240
Speaker 1: what that is a bear of a division. I mean,

1083
01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:30,120
Speaker 1: it's not the AMC North, but but it is. You

1084
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:32,840
Speaker 1: do go through Seattle, you go through San Francisco, you

1085
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:36,920
Speaker 1: go through La Rams and all of those three teams

1086
01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:39,360
Speaker 1: have been in a Super Bowl in the last ten years.

1087
01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:44,000
Speaker 1: Let's stay NFC West. What about what about Sean McVay

1088
01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:46,760
Speaker 1: and Jared Goff another duo that the Bills are going

1089
01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:49,760
Speaker 1: to face this season? Is that Is that a pair

1090
01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:53,880
Speaker 1: that's trending upwards or downwards? You would say, well, I

1091
01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:58,200
Speaker 1: mean in a relatively short time together, they've accomplished a

1092
01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 1: good deal. You know, NFC title. A couple of years ago,

1093
01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:06,600
Speaker 1: I ranked them right behind McDermott and Allen just because

1094
01:02:06,720 --> 01:02:08,720
Speaker 1: of what they've achieved in a short period of time

1095
01:02:08,880 --> 01:02:10,640
Speaker 1: and the tremendous amount of faith that I have in

1096
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:15,280
Speaker 1: McVeigh as a coach. I think McVeigh saved Jared Goff's career.

1097
01:02:15,760 --> 01:02:20,480
Speaker 1: He makes the game easy for Goff, and so because

1098
01:02:20,560 --> 01:02:22,440
Speaker 1: of that, I kind of gave them a lot of

1099
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:25,200
Speaker 1: extra credit. I may have dinged Matt Ryan a little

1100
01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:27,720
Speaker 1: too much because I don't think a whole lot of

1101
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:29,520
Speaker 1: Dan Quinn as a head coach. I think he's a

1102
01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:32,600
Speaker 1: great defensive coordinator, but I just don't think he's a

1103
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:36,400
Speaker 1: strong head coach. And I probably dinged some of these

1104
01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:40,240
Speaker 1: combinations hard if I didn't have a tremendous amount of

1105
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:43,000
Speaker 1: faith in the head coaching abilities, maybe even more so

1106
01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:46,800
Speaker 1: than the quarterback play. So there's a couple of tandems

1107
01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:51,560
Speaker 1: on here that they don't even show up because I

1108
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:53,760
Speaker 1: just I don't know. I just don't think the coach

1109
01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:59,400
Speaker 1: has the goods, especially in this modern day NFL. But yeah,

1110
01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:05,920
Speaker 1: so I had him tenth, had Kyler Murray tenth. No, No,

1111
01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:09,760
Speaker 1: mcvayh and Goff. Oh, mcvayh and Goff. Yeah, yeah, I

1112
01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:12,600
Speaker 1: have yet I thought I got him at sixteen, right

1113
01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:14,080
Speaker 1: in the middle of the pack. I think. I think

1114
01:03:14,160 --> 01:03:16,640
Speaker 1: McVeagh is an excellent offensive mind. I think he's a

1115
01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:18,760
Speaker 1: little over his head as a head coach, and I

1116
01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:22,600
Speaker 1: think Jared Goff is nothing without McVeigh. I think they're

1117
01:03:22,640 --> 01:03:24,400
Speaker 1: middle of the road. What did you guys think of

1118
01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:28,640
Speaker 1: Prescott and McCarthy. I've got him, Actually, I've got him

1119
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:31,840
Speaker 1: at twelve. I've got him at twelve, Okay, I think yeah,

1120
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 1: And I think I think Dak Prescott and the talent

1121
01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:38,200
Speaker 1: in Dallas, and you know, Mike McCarthy getting down there,

1122
01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:40,320
Speaker 1: I think he'll he'll do some good down there. I

1123
01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:43,320
Speaker 1: think they're a good they're a good combination. Although I

1124
01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:46,280
Speaker 1: think they got some potential and they've got some some credentials,

1125
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:47,920
Speaker 1: both of them. So I think it's a good deal

1126
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:52,120
Speaker 1: guys on that team this year. It's amazing to me

1127
01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:56,200
Speaker 1: that I put Mike McCarthy and Dak Prescott ahead of

1128
01:03:56,320 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and Bruce Arians, but I did. Yeah, that's

1129
01:04:01,080 --> 01:04:06,040
Speaker 1: that's a little surprising. Um. And you know, people forget

1130
01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:10,080
Speaker 1: McCarthy as a Super Bowl UM. So he's got one

1131
01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 1: on his resume, you know, back in twenty ten and

1132
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:20,560
Speaker 1: and Prescott um high efficiency performer. And he did have

1133
01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:23,920
Speaker 1: comeback victories much like Josh Allen did. I think he

1134
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:26,240
Speaker 1: had four or he might have even been tied with

1135
01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:28,440
Speaker 1: Josh with five last year. I got to check on that,

1136
01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:31,960
Speaker 1: but I know he had Russell Josh okay, so he

1137
01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:34,160
Speaker 1: was right behind them with three or four last year

1138
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:38,000
Speaker 1: of memory serves. So I don't know if people are

1139
01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:41,080
Speaker 1: completely ready to call him a true clutch performer. But

1140
01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:44,400
Speaker 1: he's a high efficiency performer for sure, and he has

1141
01:04:44,480 --> 01:04:47,560
Speaker 1: the talent around him. And now let's see what McCarthy

1142
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:49,840
Speaker 1: brings to the table. So those are probably the top

1143
01:04:50,080 --> 01:04:53,800
Speaker 1: new combinations, Mannie, that I've gone on as Let me

1144
01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:57,360
Speaker 1: ask you this, who's your thirty two? Yeah, who's your

1145
01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:01,560
Speaker 1: who's your three? I give you mine? Ye, give me

1146
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:08,160
Speaker 1: your as well. I'm thinking Man and Gardner min. Yeah.

1147
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:10,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm gonna be able to top

1148
01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:14,600
Speaker 1: that or bottom it as it were. Um, I'm trying

1149
01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:16,960
Speaker 1: to just roll through the teams in my head real quick.

1150
01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:23,240
Speaker 1: Layne Haskins, Joe Judge, Daniel Jones, Matt Naggy, Mitch Trubisky. Yeah,

1151
01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:27,800
Speaker 1: I'm worried about the Charger situation, Anthony Lynn, Justin Herbert

1152
01:05:28,040 --> 01:05:31,880
Speaker 1: or Tyrod. Yeah, I'm worried. I would say, I'll say this,

1153
01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:35,720
Speaker 1: I am worried about the Jacksonville situation. I'm worried about

1154
01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:42,360
Speaker 1: the Charger situation. Um, who else is am I worried about?

1155
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:46,880
Speaker 1: I'm still not convinced that Adam Gaze gets it in

1156
01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:53,680
Speaker 1: New York. Um Stefanski is a question mark in Cleveland,

1157
01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:58,120
Speaker 1: although he's got a decent resume as a coordinator Zach Taylor,

1158
01:05:58,320 --> 01:06:01,600
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow with the Bengal Yeah, I mean I think

1159
01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:05,160
Speaker 1: Burrow is special. So yeah, I'll let that percolate and

1160
01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:07,560
Speaker 1: see what it comes from it. But yeah, as far

1161
01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:10,520
Speaker 1: as Cleveland goes, we've seen it blow up so many times.

1162
01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:13,880
Speaker 1: I've got him. I've got him at twenty one. Oh,

1163
01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:17,840
Speaker 1: you like Baker, then no, I like Kevin Stefanski and

1164
01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:20,120
Speaker 1: I do like Baker. I like Baker. I think he's

1165
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:22,160
Speaker 1: got something. I think Stefanski is a guy. I think

1166
01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:24,280
Speaker 1: they did it the right way finally in Cleveland. I

1167
01:06:24,320 --> 01:06:26,840
Speaker 1: think they went through the process, asked the right questions,

1168
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:29,600
Speaker 1: and stayed disciplined and didn't go outside the lines. I

1169
01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:32,200
Speaker 1: think Kevin Stefanski's a great candidate. I don't know that

1170
01:06:32,240 --> 01:06:34,280
Speaker 1: it's going to help this year because of the COVID,

1171
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:38,280
Speaker 1: but yeah, I think Cleveland might have found if they

1172
01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:41,040
Speaker 1: can keep their fingers out of the pie, out of

1173
01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:43,520
Speaker 1: football pie and let the football people run it, I

1174
01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:45,960
Speaker 1: think they got a chance. Yeah, I would probably go

1175
01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:50,480
Speaker 1: Jacksonville thirty two. I would tend to agree with that,

1176
01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:56,920
Speaker 1: and then I would go probably Washington thirty one. I

1177
01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:58,920
Speaker 1: love Ron Rivera as a head coach, but I just

1178
01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:01,920
Speaker 1: think right off the bat, before he's even coached at

1179
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:05,880
Speaker 1: dang practice, there's a lot of stuff go and mess there.

1180
01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:10,040
Speaker 1: There's just too many distractions to have success. And so

1181
01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:14,480
Speaker 1: I'll put them thirty one. And then I don't know.

1182
01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:17,440
Speaker 1: I just really worry about the Charger situation at quarterback.

1183
01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:19,640
Speaker 1: I think they're going to try to put Tyrone on

1184
01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:23,600
Speaker 1: the field to start, They'll have limited success in a

1185
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:27,720
Speaker 1: tough division, and then they'll make the switch and Herbert's

1186
01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:30,120
Speaker 1: going to be learning on the fly. I don't think

1187
01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:32,080
Speaker 1: it'll be all that different from what we saw the

1188
01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:36,320
Speaker 1: Bills go through offensively in twenty eighteen. So I would

1189
01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:40,760
Speaker 1: probably put them thirtieth. And then, just because I think

1190
01:07:41,160 --> 01:07:42,960
Speaker 1: very little of that him Gaze as a head coach,

1191
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:47,200
Speaker 1: I'd probably put him twenty nine. Here's somebody else that

1192
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:50,000
Speaker 1: the Bills have on their schedule. Where would you rank

1193
01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 1: John Gruden and Derek Carr? Yeah? Are they approven duo?

1194
01:07:57,040 --> 01:08:00,800
Speaker 1: Would you say? I mean, they haven't had that success.

1195
01:08:00,880 --> 01:08:03,200
Speaker 1: I've got him actually, I've got him actually kind of high.

1196
01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:06,320
Speaker 1: I've got him at thirteen. A little middle of the pack,

1197
01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 1: but I couldn't. I couldn't get there. Yeah, I think

1198
01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:13,360
Speaker 1: I think the thing that gets in the way for

1199
01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:16,000
Speaker 1: me is John Gruden's inability to hang on to guys.

1200
01:08:17,120 --> 01:08:20,559
Speaker 1: I think he he churns the roster a little too

1201
01:08:20,680 --> 01:08:23,320
Speaker 1: much for any continuity, and guys can't get acclimated and

1202
01:08:24,240 --> 01:08:26,960
Speaker 1: pick up the pick up the system. I think Derek

1203
01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:30,920
Speaker 1: Carr could is a good quarterback, really good quarterback, but

1204
01:08:31,080 --> 01:08:35,559
Speaker 1: I think, you know, I think the Raiders organization has

1205
01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:40,040
Speaker 1: helped him to underachieve. Yeah, And unfortunately, I think for Gruden,

1206
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:46,240
Speaker 1: you know, a guy that has a very complex system.

1207
01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 1: He's running counter to all the influx of talent that

1208
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:55,920
Speaker 1: is coming into the league from college football. Their their

1209
01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:59,240
Speaker 1: offensive schemes are getting simpler where you don't even have

1210
01:08:59,320 --> 01:09:04,639
Speaker 1: guys running rout trees, doing sight adjusts and those kinds

1211
01:09:04,680 --> 01:09:06,840
Speaker 1: of things, let alone huddling up to call a play.

1212
01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:09,920
Speaker 1: And he's got plays that are forty seven words long.

1213
01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:14,640
Speaker 1: So I just don't I don't see it as a

1214
01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:17,920
Speaker 1: natural mesh. And I think because of that, he's going

1215
01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:20,599
Speaker 1: to find it harder and harder to find players capable

1216
01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:24,640
Speaker 1: of playing effectively in his system. Just by nature, just

1217
01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:28,000
Speaker 1: by virtue of the fact that college players are playing

1218
01:09:28,080 --> 01:09:31,360
Speaker 1: in overly simplified offenses compared to what he's running. I mean,

1219
01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:33,600
Speaker 1: that's like running out on the field and trying to

1220
01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:37,720
Speaker 1: decipher the Encyclopedia Britannica in a split second. I mean

1221
01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:41,680
Speaker 1: that's how those players feel out there. I think it's counterintuitive,

1222
01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:44,360
Speaker 1: quite frankly, and I don't know if Gruden's going to change, right,

1223
01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:46,720
Speaker 1: I kind of get along with I kind of get

1224
01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:49,880
Speaker 1: along with that because that's part of the you know,

1225
01:09:49,960 --> 01:09:51,800
Speaker 1: Gruden's part of the organization. I mean, he's got a

1226
01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:55,639
Speaker 1: ten year contract, He's not going anywhere, and every player

1227
01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:58,040
Speaker 1: is going to have to get fit into that system.

1228
01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:00,599
Speaker 1: And if you can't learn, if you're you can't learn

1229
01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:02,639
Speaker 1: it that fast, if you can't acclimate it that fast,

1230
01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:05,960
Speaker 1: you can't get comfortable with it. If they don't teach

1231
01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:08,400
Speaker 1: it to you well enough, they don't give you enough

1232
01:10:08,439 --> 01:10:12,320
Speaker 1: reps at it, don't cut you, and the next guy's in,

1233
01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:15,760
Speaker 1: and that just breeds. That's last success, right. But I

1234
01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:18,240
Speaker 1: just think it makes the task harder for Mike Mayock

1235
01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:22,160
Speaker 1: because how many how many players are you're weeding out

1236
01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:28,200
Speaker 1: now just because you don't think they have the football

1237
01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:31,680
Speaker 1: iq to master a system after learning none of that

1238
01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:35,360
Speaker 1: stuff in college, so that that's hard enough to evaluate

1239
01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:38,479
Speaker 1: and target and then think about all the players you're

1240
01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:40,920
Speaker 1: crossing off your list because you know they can't do

1241
01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 1: that on offense. And they've had some pretty questionable draft

1242
01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:47,920
Speaker 1: picks over the last few years with their first and

1243
01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 1: second selections. Yeah, I mean, I like Jacobs. That was

1244
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:54,800
Speaker 1: a good pick for them. He just got hurt towards

1245
01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:56,320
Speaker 1: the end of his rookie years, so that was a

1246
01:10:56,400 --> 01:10:59,559
Speaker 1: good choice. But yeah, there's there are some question marks

1247
01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:02,880
Speaker 1: mixed in there for sure. Yeah, that's interesting. It's gonna

1248
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:06,040
Speaker 1: we'll keep after this, Brownie. Thanks for dropping buying going

1249
01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:07,519
Speaker 1: through this for that's a lot of fun. I like

1250
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:10,679
Speaker 1: ranking one through thirty two. Yeah, we always talk about

1251
01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:14,040
Speaker 1: everybody else's rankings, right, but we never we never do

1252
01:11:14,120 --> 01:11:16,439
Speaker 1: it ourselves. Come up with there. It's hard to do, man,

1253
01:11:16,479 --> 01:11:18,599
Speaker 1: because man, he looked down. It's like, man, those guys

1254
01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:21,880
Speaker 1: are way too low. You know. I just love how

1255
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:25,560
Speaker 1: Maddy started at the bottom. I know, what does that

1256
01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:30,960
Speaker 1: say about myself? Who is the Thanks Brownie, Steve Tasker

1257

Speaker 1: medic Lab coming back. We're here till three o'clock. At

1267
01:12:10,400 --> 01:12:13,439
Speaker 1: you can cheers to the captains. So that was a

1268
01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:18,840
Speaker 1: good debate with Brownie last half hour, and we talk

1269
01:12:18,920 --> 01:12:22,519
Speaker 1: went down to our thirty two teams of quarterback coaching,

1270
01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:26,640
Speaker 1: combo duo rankings, whatever you want to call it. That's

1271
01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:28,760
Speaker 1: a lot of fun that because you forget about who

1272
01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:32,559
Speaker 1: all's out there, right, and you kind of got your

1273
01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:35,400
Speaker 1: perception is they go in a certain spot. But then

1274
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:37,080
Speaker 1: when you start looking at the numbers, you kind of

1275
01:12:37,120 --> 01:12:38,960
Speaker 1: get caught up in what that number is. He's like,

1276
01:12:39,160 --> 01:12:41,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, that seems too low and then you

1277
01:12:41,760 --> 01:12:45,720
Speaker 1: gotta you know, shuffle things around. Takes a long time

1278
01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:48,800
Speaker 1: to get through thirty two rankings. Yeah, and it's interesting

1279
01:12:48,920 --> 01:12:51,400
Speaker 1: looking at all the all the duos that we're going

1280
01:12:51,439 --> 01:12:54,880
Speaker 1: to be facing this season and where McDermot and Alan

1281
01:12:55,000 --> 01:12:58,599
Speaker 1: fit in with the rest, and who's top ten, who's

1282
01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:01,320
Speaker 1: bottom three. There's a lot of people in there are

1283
01:13:01,439 --> 01:13:05,320
Speaker 1: sixty four plus people if you're looking into everybody, plus

1284
01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:07,960
Speaker 1: the quarterback battles that are going on, and all do

1285
01:13:08,080 --> 01:13:10,759
Speaker 1: different jobs and have different roles in their teams. It's

1286
01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:12,559
Speaker 1: fun to think about though, and it's and it's fun.

1287
01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 1: Obviously we all watch it on Sundays when they when

1288
01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:17,720
Speaker 1: they have to you know, be you know, go out

1289
01:13:17,720 --> 01:13:19,880
Speaker 1: and win a game. That's fun. I gotta tell you

1290
01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:23,479
Speaker 1: that you want to go for What's for lunch? For lunch?

1291
01:13:23,720 --> 01:13:25,680
Speaker 1: What's for lunch is where we pick two things off

1292
01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:27,600
Speaker 1: a menu. We get a choice of two things on

1293
01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:29,200
Speaker 1: the menu. You gotta pick one of them. You can

1294
01:13:29,280 --> 01:13:32,280
Speaker 1: like them both, but you gotta pick one of them.

1295
01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:37,799
Speaker 1: Here we go. It's Carson Wentz underrated or properly rated?

1296
01:13:40,479 --> 01:13:45,000
Speaker 1: What's for lunch? What would you right? I think he's underrated,

1297
01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:51,680
Speaker 1: You think he's underrated. I think I think he is

1298
01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:55,120
Speaker 1: properly rated because he still has some things to prove. Certainly,

1299
01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:57,280
Speaker 1: he put the Philadelphia Eagles in the map and game

1300
01:13:57,400 --> 01:13:59,120
Speaker 1: of a season that was worthy the super Bowl that

1301
01:13:59,240 --> 01:14:01,439
Speaker 1: was finished by Foles, and we'll never know the end

1302
01:14:01,479 --> 01:14:03,200
Speaker 1: of that how it would have happened if Carson Wentz

1303
01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:06,519
Speaker 1: had been the quarterback. But he is a good I

1304
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:10,200
Speaker 1: think he's very good. I think people know he's good,

1305
01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:12,080
Speaker 1: but he still has some things to prove about his

1306
01:14:12,160 --> 01:14:15,560
Speaker 1: ability to stay on the field. We'll see how he

1307
01:14:15,640 --> 01:14:19,439
Speaker 1: does this season. That's an interesting conversation there with Jalen

1308
01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:22,439
Speaker 1: Hurts now in the quarterback room. Do you think he's

1309
01:14:22,479 --> 01:14:28,920
Speaker 1: a MVP kind of candidate Carson Wentz. I would agree

1310
01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:31,840
Speaker 1: with you, and that he still has more to prove.

1311
01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:34,360
Speaker 1: I don't think i'd call him an MVP candidate right now,

1312
01:14:34,640 --> 01:14:38,120
Speaker 1: but if he can prove that he's healthy and if

1313
01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:43,840
Speaker 1: he can take the Eagles far again in multiple years,

1314
01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:48,920
Speaker 1: then yeah, yeah. I think he was in the conversation

1315
01:14:49,000 --> 01:14:51,559
Speaker 1: before he got hurt deep into that seaton where they

1316
01:14:51,600 --> 01:14:55,320
Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl. So yeah, he's got it in

1317
01:14:55,400 --> 01:14:57,760
Speaker 1: there somewhere. But certainly I think he's the kind of guy.

1318
01:14:57,800 --> 01:14:59,439
Speaker 1: I think he's a quarterback that needs a good roster.

1319
01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:00,920
Speaker 1: He's got to be a good team before he can

1320
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:03,360
Speaker 1: win the MVP. I don't think he's gonna win the

1321
01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:08,760
Speaker 1: MVP like a like Lamar, like Lamar Jackson did last year,

1322
01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:11,439
Speaker 1: where he's just wows everybody. I think he needs to

1323
01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:14,120
Speaker 1: have a I think he needs some weapons on the outside.

1324
01:15:14,640 --> 01:15:20,120
Speaker 1: Who's the more memorable Bennett brother, Michael or Martellis Michael Bennett?

1325
01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:23,840
Speaker 1: I think so too. Yeah, Michael Bennett just announced his

1326
01:15:23,960 --> 01:15:28,439
Speaker 1: retirement after an eleven year, three Pro Bowls, a Super Bowl. Yeah,

1327
01:15:28,479 --> 01:15:31,040
Speaker 1: I'll take Michael Bennett as well. Yeah, he's I think

1328
01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:33,360
Speaker 1: he was a really good player. Who's got the better

1329
01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:35,599
Speaker 1: chance And this is another might item on the menu,

1330
01:15:35,720 --> 01:15:38,400
Speaker 1: Maddie better chance to win the MVP this year? This

1331
01:15:38,600 --> 01:15:48,360
Speaker 1: coming year, Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers. I'm thinking about

1332
01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:53,400
Speaker 1: what each roster has, and I'm gonna I'm gonna have

1333
01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:57,280
Speaker 1: to say Tom Brady. I think Aaron Ryant. I think

1334
01:15:57,320 --> 01:15:59,840
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is going to be an angry man this year,

1335
01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:03,720
Speaker 1: and I don't think that's gonna pay off in on

1336
01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:08,320
Speaker 1: field success. Do you think it's gonna end well? For

1337
01:16:08,400 --> 01:16:10,800
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay before I tell you which

1338
01:16:10,840 --> 01:16:13,200
Speaker 1: one I did. By the way, I'll take Tom Brady

1339
01:16:13,240 --> 01:16:17,080
Speaker 1: because he's got a better team around him. Yeah, totally yeah.

1340
01:16:17,360 --> 01:16:19,880
Speaker 1: But Aaron Rodgers, do you think it's gonna end well

1341
01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:21,960
Speaker 1: for him there in Green Bay? Aaron Rodgers, because it's

1342
01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:25,160
Speaker 1: gonna end at some point. It's gonna end at some point,

1343
01:16:25,240 --> 01:16:28,560
Speaker 1: and I don't think it's gonna end well based on

1344
01:16:29,120 --> 01:16:31,720
Speaker 1: the type of person that he is and what we've

1345
01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:36,040
Speaker 1: I don't know him personally, but what we've heard about

1346
01:16:36,160 --> 01:16:40,800
Speaker 1: how he's reacted to different type of situations and scenarios,

1347
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:44,679
Speaker 1: and of course he's not pumped about Jordan Love coming

1348
01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:48,600
Speaker 1: into the quarterback room, and who knows if it's a

1349
01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:52,559
Speaker 1: writing on the wall type situation for what the future

1350
01:16:53,760 --> 01:16:58,200
Speaker 1: has in store for him. But similar to Brett Farve,

1351
01:16:58,920 --> 01:17:00,880
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna coach just like far I think

1352
01:17:00,920 --> 01:17:04,519
Speaker 1: it's gonna be really, really ugly. I think it'll be quick,

1353
01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:06,800
Speaker 1: though I don't think it'll be drawn out rip the

1354
01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:09,800
Speaker 1: band aid all. I think when Rogers decides he's going,

1355
01:17:09,920 --> 01:17:12,040
Speaker 1: he's going, and you'll never hear from him again in

1356
01:17:12,200 --> 01:17:15,800
Speaker 1: Green Bay. That's what I think. All right here we go, next, next,

1357
01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:19,880
Speaker 1: next at him on the menu, Who's more likely to

1358
01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:23,160
Speaker 1: have a big or who's gonna have a bigger bounce

1359
01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 1: back season? Or Philip Rivers. I'm gonna stay big Ben.

1360
01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:32,759
Speaker 1: I think. I mean big Ben was out for basically

1361
01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:37,519
Speaker 1: the entire season. I think he feels he feels like

1362
01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:40,000
Speaker 1: he still has a lot to prove. Yeah. Yeah, Philip

1363
01:17:40,120 --> 01:17:43,519
Speaker 1: Rivers is on a new team and has a has

1364
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:48,519
Speaker 1: a new city, new teammates, everything, and could have a

1365
01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:50,800
Speaker 1: bounce back year. But I still think Philip Rivers is

1366
01:17:51,200 --> 01:17:53,759
Speaker 1: a great quarterback. I think big Ben is still trying

1367
01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:57,160
Speaker 1: to prove that he um has a few years left

1368
01:17:57,240 --> 01:18:01,439
Speaker 1: in his tank. After being off for a season, I

1369
01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:05,240
Speaker 1: would say, Wow, this is a hard one for me.

1370
01:18:06,200 --> 01:18:08,679
Speaker 1: So I've always had the utmost respect for Philip Rivers.

1371
01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:12,720
Speaker 1: But big Ben is. I've big Ben selings that like

1372
01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:18,160
Speaker 1: not too many people ever have. I'm gonna say big Ben.

1373
01:18:19,600 --> 01:18:21,439
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Ben's gonna have a bounce back here.

1374
01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:24,559
Speaker 1: I think he's got a better organization around him. Uh.

1375
01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:28,920
Speaker 1: Not that I don't trust Frank Reicht in Indianapolis, implicitly

1376
01:18:28,960 --> 01:18:31,000
Speaker 1: I do, And I think Philip Rivers is gonna do

1377
01:18:31,040 --> 01:18:32,760
Speaker 1: everything he can. I don't think he's got as much

1378
01:18:32,920 --> 01:18:36,600
Speaker 1: in his tank left than as Big Ben does. I

1379
01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:39,960
Speaker 1: think Big Ben has been in more Big Ben Roethlisbergs

1380
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:44,880
Speaker 1: has been more big games, He's dug deep more often,

1381
01:18:45,960 --> 01:18:48,240
Speaker 1: and I think the team is in a position to

1382
01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:51,120
Speaker 1: support him better than Philip Rivers will be supported on

1383
01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:53,560
Speaker 1: a new team in Indianapolis. That's what I think. But

1384
01:18:53,640 --> 01:18:55,160
Speaker 1: I think both of them are going to play well

1385
01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:57,760
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, but I think I think Ben. I

1386
01:18:57,840 --> 01:19:00,759
Speaker 1: think that Steelers will go farther than the Anapolis Colts.

1387
01:19:01,040 --> 01:19:03,880
Speaker 1: All right, it's fun to watch Philip Rivers in a

1388
01:19:03,960 --> 01:19:07,000
Speaker 1: new offense, though, YEA. A couple of couple more here

1389
01:19:07,040 --> 01:19:09,759
Speaker 1: we go. Which wide receiver playing with a new quarterback

1390
01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:14,000
Speaker 1: is going to have more catches? Julian Edelman, who's going

1391
01:19:14,080 --> 01:19:17,479
Speaker 1: to be playing with Cam Newton or t Y Hilton

1392
01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:20,880
Speaker 1: is going to be kept playing with Philip Rivers we

1393
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:24,040
Speaker 1: just spoke about. That's a good question. I think a

1394
01:19:24,600 --> 01:19:26,800
Speaker 1: slot receiver t Y Hilton more of a more of

1395
01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:30,680
Speaker 1: a you know, all around deep threat guy. What do

1396
01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:33,760
Speaker 1: you think I think with the way Philip Rivers likes

1397
01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:36,280
Speaker 1: to sling it, I think t Y Hilton's going to

1398
01:19:36,360 --> 01:19:44,240
Speaker 1: have more catches with his new quarterback. Yeah, I don't

1399
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:48,720
Speaker 1: thinks been a pretty successful wide receiver. Think about it too, now,

1400
01:19:48,880 --> 01:19:51,400
Speaker 1: Cam Newton two years ago was the guy who helped

1401
01:19:52,560 --> 01:19:55,320
Speaker 1: McCaffrey become the guy he is getting in the ball,

1402
01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:58,800
Speaker 1: and Edelman is kind of like that, right, So so

1403
01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:01,360
Speaker 1: Cam is used to dumping it off. I think he

1404
01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:03,360
Speaker 1: got used to dumping it off because he was always hurt.

1405
01:20:03,439 --> 01:20:05,760
Speaker 1: He had, you know, his shoulder was bothered. So he

1406
01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:08,200
Speaker 1: did it out of out of self preservation. But at

1407
01:20:08,280 --> 01:20:10,200
Speaker 1: least it met It taught him something. I think Edelman

1408
01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:14,400
Speaker 1: might not be totally forgotten. With Cam Newton and t

1409
01:20:14,680 --> 01:20:18,680
Speaker 1: Y Hilt, I think, oh wow, which wide receiver we're

1410
01:20:18,680 --> 01:20:20,599
Speaker 1: playing with a new compute will have more catch You're

1411
01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:25,280
Speaker 1: talking about just catches catching. I'm gonna say Julian Edelman

1412
01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:29,479
Speaker 1: will have more catches. Would you would you name t

1413
01:20:29,720 --> 01:20:32,680
Speaker 1: Y Hilton in a different scenario or a different question, Yeah,

1414
01:20:32,680 --> 01:20:34,680
Speaker 1: I could see it. I mean t Y Hilton will

1415
01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:38,280
Speaker 1: have more yards per reception. I'll bet he has. I'll

1416
01:20:38,320 --> 01:20:41,439
Speaker 1: bet Edelman has more targets too, though. I think t

1417
01:20:41,560 --> 01:20:43,880
Speaker 1: w Y Hilton will be a really important part of

1418
01:20:43,920 --> 01:20:47,120
Speaker 1: a better throw, a better offense than than Edelman will be.

1419
01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:50,000
Speaker 1: Would you say t Y Hilton is going to be

1420
01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:54,679
Speaker 1: the better receiver next year? Yeah, there's there are people

1421
01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:56,559
Speaker 1: that will tell you he's the better receiver now, even

1422
01:20:56,600 --> 01:21:00,160
Speaker 1: though Edelman's got gaudy numbers playing with Tom Brady and

1423
01:21:00,240 --> 01:21:03,840
Speaker 1: playing with nobody else that was eligible last year. So

1424
01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:06,200
Speaker 1: Edelman killed it last year. But I think t Y

1425
01:21:06,280 --> 01:21:08,320
Speaker 1: Hilton would probably most teams would take t Y Hilton

1426
01:21:08,320 --> 01:21:12,880
Speaker 1: before they'd take Julian Edelman. I think maybe not, but

1427
01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:15,960
Speaker 1: I would all right, here we go, we got one

1428
01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:20,400
Speaker 1: more time for one more you're ready, yep. In twenty twelve,

1429
01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:23,519
Speaker 1: two quarterbacks were drafted. Kirk Cousins came out in the

1430
01:21:23,600 --> 01:21:27,519
Speaker 1: fourth round and at pick number two of the entire

1431
01:21:27,640 --> 01:21:30,920
Speaker 1: draft was Andrew Luck. No, he was picked number one,

1432
01:21:31,439 --> 01:21:37,360
Speaker 1: number one overall, Andrew Luck. If you redraft Kirk Cousins,

1433
01:21:37,800 --> 01:21:40,800
Speaker 1: do you redraft him Kirk Cousins or Andrew Luck? Which

1434
01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:43,679
Speaker 1: one do you take number two? At the number two?

1435
01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:48,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I would hope if you're doing a redraft

1436
01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:55,120
Speaker 1: to Andrew Luck's career could also be redone, because whose

1437
01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:59,160
Speaker 1: whose career would you take? I think based off of

1438
01:21:59,240 --> 01:22:02,439
Speaker 1: how it's happened. And uh that's if not see this

1439
01:22:02,520 --> 01:22:06,479
Speaker 1: is all if Russell Wilson goes number one, right, he

1440
01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:09,160
Speaker 1: was like a third round for we knowing that Andrew

1441
01:22:09,280 --> 01:22:11,960
Speaker 1: Luck's career is gonna end very early and he's gonna

1442
01:22:12,080 --> 01:22:15,240
Speaker 1: everything's the same. Now everything's the same. Now who take it?

1443
01:22:16,800 --> 01:22:19,920
Speaker 1: Do you take Kirk Cousins, Andrew Luck or Ryan Tannehill

1444
01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:23,599
Speaker 1: maybe even from that draft. I don't think I'm taking

1445
01:22:23,720 --> 01:22:27,880
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill number two. I'm not a Ryan Tannehill believer yet,

1446
01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:31,679
Speaker 1: just like Brow, Yeah, would you take Kirk Cousins ahead

1447
01:22:31,680 --> 01:22:36,000
Speaker 1: of Andrew Luck because Andrew Luck only played six years? Yes?

1448
01:22:39,240 --> 01:22:42,040
Speaker 1: I would. I would too. You gotta have that. You

1449
01:22:42,120 --> 01:22:43,880
Speaker 1: can't tie up that kind of draft pick for guys

1450
01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:46,400
Speaker 1: only gonna be there for suit that's like a bust. Yeah,

1451
01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:51,280
Speaker 1: but it's it's the waste. But nobody knew that Andrew

1452
01:22:51,400 --> 01:22:54,519
Speaker 1: Luck was gonna give. Cousins is like mister mediocre too.

1453
01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:57,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he has some pretty good numbers, but he's

1454
01:22:57,200 --> 01:23:02,320
Speaker 1: not you know, is he better than Ryan's Tannahill consist

1455
01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:05,400
Speaker 1: He's more consistent Bryan Tannehill. I mean, you take all

1456
01:23:05,479 --> 01:23:08,759
Speaker 1: seven year eight years, of their careers. He's more consistent

1457
01:23:08,840 --> 01:23:13,599
Speaker 1: than Tannehill has been. I think I don't know. That's interesting.

1458
01:23:14,280 --> 01:23:18,120
Speaker 1: That's what's for lunch too. Yeah, that's a good one.

1459
01:23:21,800 --> 01:23:23,640
Speaker 1: We might do that. We might do that. That'll be it.

1460
01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:25,880
Speaker 1: That'll be right before training camp starts, when things are

1461
01:23:25,880 --> 01:23:29,320
Speaker 1: their darkest. Steve Tasker, Matty Glab. We'll be back at

1464
01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:37,160
Speaker 1: training camp is going to start with it analytics, people

1465
01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:38,920

1477
01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:28,599
Speaker 1: very nice. It's it's almost as nice as one Bills drive. Yeah,

1478
01:24:28,680 --> 01:24:31,800
Speaker 1: it looks like one Bills drive. Let me tell you,

Speaker 1: people count the Buffalo Bills hour that they have a

1480

Speaker 1: very very nice facility as well. Now for nothing, but

1481
01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:42,680
Speaker 1: you know, the Raiders will probably practice indoors more than

1482
01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:50,040
Speaker 1: the Bills will. Yeah, too hot, it's too stinking hot

1483
01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:54,559
Speaker 1: in Vegas, that's true. They're gonna use their indoor. They've

1484
01:24:54,560 --> 01:24:57,120
Speaker 1: got an in nice indoor facilities. It's pictured here as well,

1485
01:24:57,640 --> 01:24:59,600

Speaker 1: nice one too. Congratulations to them. I know there's been

1490
01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:14,000
Speaker 1: a lot of years I've I've gone out to the

1491
01:25:14,120 --> 01:25:18,080
Speaker 1: Oakland area to cover that team, and they were living

1492
01:25:18,200 --> 01:25:21,880
Speaker 1: in less than what some other teams lived in. I'll

1493
01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:24,040
Speaker 1: just put it that way, And so good for them.

1496
01:25:29,040 --> 01:25:31,840
Speaker 1: given tours through that thing. People want to see you

1497
01:25:31,960 --> 01:25:38,800
Speaker 1: that place. I mean it is brand spanking new, all

1498
01:25:39,040 --> 01:25:43,759
Speaker 1: black everything. It looks pretty swanky looking through these pictures

1499
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:47,800
Speaker 1: and also that they've posted and it stands. It's a

1500
01:25:47,840 --> 01:25:50,320
Speaker 1: standalone place, two out away from the from the strip

1501
01:25:50,400 --> 01:25:52,160

1506
01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:08,360
Speaker 1: that the NFL can boast about. Yeah, that's good. And

1507
01:26:08,439 --> 01:26:11,639
Speaker 1: also not for nothing either. But during the over the weekend,

Speaker 1: world for women, especially women who make it up to

1516
01:26:40,680 --> 01:26:47,559
Speaker 1: the ranks of broadcast TV and um, you know, NBC Sports, ESPN.

1517
01:26:48,080 --> 01:26:50,920
Speaker 1: A few people make it that high. So when when

1518
01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:54,360
Speaker 1: females do that, you kind of look at them. How

1519
01:26:54,479 --> 01:26:56,680
Speaker 1: they got to where they got, what their what their

1520
01:26:56,760 --> 01:27:01,080
Speaker 1: track was to get to that job. And she's gonna

1521
01:27:01,120 --> 01:27:06,640
Speaker 1: be the lead radio person for their broadcast team and

1522
01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:12,240
Speaker 1: is also going to I would imagine, So which is

1523
01:27:12,360 --> 01:27:17,639
Speaker 1: that's what that means? Right? Yeah, right right? Well, that's

1524
01:27:17,880 --> 01:27:21,360
Speaker 1: good for her and it's a step towards normalcy that

1525
01:27:22,439 --> 01:27:24,960
Speaker 1: you know, the obviously the Redskins have been people have

1526
01:27:25,080 --> 01:27:29,360
Speaker 1: been calling for for a long time. So congratulations to

1527
01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:35,439
Speaker 1: Julie Donaldson. And I I do not know her, I've

1528
01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:38,760
Speaker 1: never seen her, but good luck. We'll be looking forward

1529
01:27:38,800 --> 01:27:42,080
Speaker 1: to working alongside her with the broadcast of the games

1530
01:27:42,120 --> 01:27:44,000
Speaker 1: and all of that. You'll probably have a chance to

1531
01:27:44,000 --> 01:27:47,599
Speaker 1: say hello to her. Um So, the Redskins getting it together,

1532
01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:52,760
Speaker 1: uh to start the season. They they still haven't finalized

1533
01:27:52,800 --> 01:27:57,240
Speaker 1: their nickname, have they not? No new nickname yet, no

1534
01:27:57,439 --> 01:28:00,479
Speaker 1: new news on that front, but good to see that

1535
01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:03,800
Speaker 1: they have hired someone in that position. I mean, that's

1536
01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:08,200
Speaker 1: I think speaks volumes for girls, for women who are

1537
01:28:08,240 --> 01:28:10,519
Speaker 1: in the sports world trying to make it, trying to

1538
01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:14,000
Speaker 1: make it in roles that are male dominated, especially play

1539
01:28:14,080 --> 01:28:17,840
Speaker 1: by play at an NFL level, you don't see women

1540
01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,240
Speaker 1: doing that. There's very few, and the few that are

1541
01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:22,720
Speaker 1: doing that, I mean you look up to them and

1542
01:28:23,240 --> 01:28:27,599
Speaker 1: they make it seem like that's possible for another female.

1543
01:28:28,479 --> 01:28:31,479
Speaker 1: So kudos to her. That's amazing to be able to

1544
01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:34,920
Speaker 1: make it into those types of ranks where you are

1545
01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:40,320
Speaker 1: the only one for an NFL team. She's the first

1546
01:28:40,400 --> 01:28:43,000
Speaker 1: female to be able to hold a role like that

1547
01:28:43,120 --> 01:28:46,519
Speaker 1: and also hold a senior level role on top of that,

1548
01:28:47,120 --> 01:28:50,519
Speaker 1: to be looked at as as an executive type level person,

1549
01:28:50,640 --> 01:28:53,360
Speaker 1: I think says a lot for females who are trying

1550
01:28:53,400 --> 01:28:55,600
Speaker 1: to make it in the sports industry. Yeah, it's a

1551
01:28:55,640 --> 01:28:58,560
Speaker 1: big hire for Washington. It's obviously a big move for

1552
01:28:58,680 --> 01:29:02,000
Speaker 1: Julie Donaldson in our realm of the world here in

1553
01:29:02,040 --> 01:29:05,760
Speaker 1: the NFL. Congratulations to her. Congratulations the Washington Red well

1554
01:29:05,800 --> 01:29:09,639
Speaker 1: and not the Redskins, the Washington football question marks. Yes,

1555
01:29:09,720 --> 01:29:11,800
Speaker 1: the Washington question marks. All Right, we're gonna come back.

1556
01:29:11,800 --> 01:29:13,280
Speaker 1: We're gonna take a break, We're gonna come back. With

1557
01:29:13,360 --> 01:29:16,920

01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:43,720
Speaker 1: Live Step Tasker and Maddie Glab. We're pleased to be

1561
01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:47,080
Speaker 1: joined on the line right now by NFL Networks Cynthia Freeland.

1562
01:29:47,160 --> 01:29:50,280
Speaker 1: She's an analytics expert. And Cynthia, before we get started,

1563
01:29:50,320 --> 01:29:52,479
Speaker 1: we have to start by asking you the same question

1564
01:29:52,520 --> 01:29:54,200
Speaker 1: we ask all our guests. Are you doing okay in

1565
01:29:54,280 --> 01:29:59,720
Speaker 1: the pandemic? Is your family safe? And well? Everything's going

1566
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:02,479
Speaker 1: as well as it can be considering the circumstances. How

1567
01:30:02,560 --> 01:30:06,000
Speaker 1: much for you? We're all doing great. We're working from

1568
01:30:06,040 --> 01:30:08,759
Speaker 1: home still and we're on the cusp of watching teams

1569
01:30:08,920 --> 01:30:13,200
Speaker 1: report for training camps. It's been a lot of fun. Yeah,

1570
01:30:13,360 --> 01:30:15,920
Speaker 1: you know, it's great to have even the thought about

1571
01:30:15,960 --> 01:30:18,880
Speaker 1: football coming back and thinking about what we're going to

1572
01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:21,919
Speaker 1: see and all the new changes and kind of adapting

1573
01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:25,040
Speaker 1: to everything has been ignited silver lining in the past

1574
01:30:25,080 --> 01:30:29,360
Speaker 1: few days. Cynthia got to start this interview off just

1575
01:30:29,560 --> 01:30:33,120
Speaker 1: by asking you being a female in the sports world,

1576
01:30:33,160 --> 01:30:36,519
Speaker 1: I mean, you're in a position that not many females,

1577
01:30:36,640 --> 01:30:41,040
Speaker 1: if any, are as women in sports. We are in

1578
01:30:41,120 --> 01:30:46,560
Speaker 1: a male dominated industry, but paving our way through, and

1579
01:30:46,680 --> 01:30:48,599
Speaker 1: I think the role that you're in, in the role

1580
01:30:48,640 --> 01:30:51,240
Speaker 1: that a lot of other women are in, make it

1581
01:30:51,439 --> 01:30:55,439
Speaker 1: possible for young girls and women who want to get

1582
01:30:55,520 --> 01:30:58,080
Speaker 1: into the sports world. They see that it can happen

1583
01:30:58,200 --> 01:31:00,000
Speaker 1: because of people like you. So I want to ask

1584
01:31:00,200 --> 01:31:03,479
Speaker 1: you about Julie Donaldson, who is going to be hired

1585
01:31:03,560 --> 01:31:08,160
Speaker 1: or who has been hired by Washington to lead the

1586
01:31:08,320 --> 01:31:12,000
Speaker 1: radio broadcast team as well as being a senior vice

1587
01:31:12,280 --> 01:31:16,479
Speaker 1: president of the media at an executive position level. Just

1588
01:31:16,680 --> 01:31:19,439
Speaker 1: how awesome that is to have a female being a

1589
01:31:19,520 --> 01:31:23,240
Speaker 1: position like that for a team. We see very few

1590
01:31:23,320 --> 01:31:28,000
Speaker 1: women in play by play roles for the NFL, and

1591
01:31:28,520 --> 01:31:33,000
Speaker 1: even fewer women who are at the team level being

1592
01:31:33,120 --> 01:31:36,680
Speaker 1: the lead radio person for an NFL team. So just

1593
01:31:36,920 --> 01:31:38,920
Speaker 1: your thoughts on that hire and what it means for

1594
01:31:39,280 --> 01:31:43,440
Speaker 1: women in sports in general. Well, I think that unfortunately

1595
01:31:43,520 --> 01:31:47,160
Speaker 1: for all of us, we have a female attack where ultimately,

1596
01:31:47,320 --> 01:31:51,559
Speaker 1: because we are female, there's some pre pre existing bias,

1597
01:31:52,000 --> 01:31:55,920
Speaker 1: conscious or unconscious about kind of what we're supposed to

1598
01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:57,640
Speaker 1: be doing and how we're supposed to be doing it,

1599
01:31:58,120 --> 01:32:01,880
Speaker 1: and the fact that Julie is brave enough to at

1600
01:32:01,960 --> 01:32:06,120
Speaker 1: this moment in Washington's history to be a part of

1601
01:32:06,240 --> 01:32:09,479
Speaker 1: something that that is going to be not a pleasant

1602
01:32:09,520 --> 01:32:13,840
Speaker 1: experience just in general, because anytime there's this much change,

1603
01:32:14,200 --> 01:32:17,759
Speaker 1: obviously there's tons of opportunities that are positive, but also

1604
01:32:17,920 --> 01:32:19,840
Speaker 1: there's going to be a lot of heartaches too. So

1605
01:32:20,120 --> 01:32:23,360
Speaker 1: her courage and her ability to see the field and

1606
01:32:23,439 --> 01:32:26,680
Speaker 1: the playing field for what it could be and where

1607
01:32:26,720 --> 01:32:28,680
Speaker 1: it can go, and to be a leader in this

1608
01:32:28,880 --> 01:32:30,920
Speaker 1: time when I'm not gonna lie to you, I don't

1609
01:32:30,920 --> 01:32:32,519
Speaker 1: know if I would want to go work for Washington

1610
01:32:32,640 --> 01:32:34,160
Speaker 1: right now. I think it's just going to be a

1611
01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:37,960
Speaker 1: tough time to really do you know, the things that

1612
01:32:38,120 --> 01:32:40,920
Speaker 1: you need to get done with. There's like every executive

1613
01:32:40,960 --> 01:32:44,040
Speaker 1: seems to be new and different, so everyone's kind of

1614
01:32:44,160 --> 01:32:47,439
Speaker 1: rowing in different directions. And by the way, it's COVID,

1615
01:32:47,560 --> 01:32:50,240
Speaker 1: so who knows how much kind of face time they

1616
01:32:50,280 --> 01:32:53,400
Speaker 1: have with each other. It's a really tough time. So

1617
01:32:53,600 --> 01:32:56,639
Speaker 1: that speaks to who Julia is and if that's if

1618
01:32:56,720 --> 01:32:58,840
Speaker 1: that's the kind of women that we have to look

1619
01:32:58,960 --> 01:33:01,559
Speaker 1: up to, then the future is super bright. But I'm

1620
01:33:01,560 --> 01:33:03,080
Speaker 1: not gonna lie to you. That is that is a

1621
01:33:03,560 --> 01:33:06,799
Speaker 1: she that is a tough role, even tougher than it sounds.

1622
01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:10,080
Speaker 1: I just think, gosh, good kudos to her. Like really,

1623
01:33:10,160 --> 01:33:14,760
Speaker 1: I have so much respect for the courage. We're talking about.

1624
01:33:14,800 --> 01:33:17,960
Speaker 1: Cynthia Freedland NFL Network. She's an NFL Fantasy She's on

1625
01:33:18,120 --> 01:33:21,400
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live and also Gained Day Morning as well. Cynthia,

1626
01:33:21,479 --> 01:33:23,439
Speaker 1: you always take it on to yourself to do this

1627
01:33:23,560 --> 01:33:27,320
Speaker 1: analytic stuff and you talk about, you know, the variables

1628
01:33:27,400 --> 01:33:30,600
Speaker 1: that go into the analytics and what it is, and

1629
01:33:30,720 --> 01:33:32,960
Speaker 1: it's the holy grail of analytics. Is it not to

1630
01:33:33,120 --> 01:33:35,760
Speaker 1: try and predict what's going to happen next? You did

1631
01:33:35,840 --> 01:33:38,400
Speaker 1: that when you went down all the teams and said,

1632
01:33:38,479 --> 01:33:40,560
Speaker 1: this is the guy who's going to have the breakouts.

1633
01:33:40,640 --> 01:33:44,120
Speaker 1: He's the most improved player for each team. And you know,

1634
01:33:44,200 --> 01:33:46,519
Speaker 1: analytics are all about not only knowing yourself, but your

1635
01:33:46,520 --> 01:33:49,120
Speaker 1: opponents and trying to predict what's gonna happen next. And

1636
01:33:49,160 --> 01:33:52,360
Speaker 1: that's exactly what this article is all about. Yeah, so

1637
01:33:52,479 --> 01:33:54,880
Speaker 1: the article really were we sat down with my editors

1638
01:33:54,880 --> 01:33:58,000
Speaker 1: and we're like, Okay, who's going to have a really

1639
01:33:58,160 --> 01:34:01,720
Speaker 1: big uptick in production? Versus last year. Who's poised to

1640
01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:04,479
Speaker 1: you that for each team. Some teams as it was

1641
01:34:04,479 --> 01:34:07,240
Speaker 1: a little easier than others because you had things like

1642
01:34:07,400 --> 01:34:10,280
Speaker 1: someone who was just a total stug coming back from injuries.

1643
01:34:10,479 --> 01:34:13,040
Speaker 1: So that was very helpful for me, I could cheat

1644
01:34:13,080 --> 01:34:16,000
Speaker 1: on a few and but for others it was a

1645
01:34:16,120 --> 01:34:18,559
Speaker 1: lot about, you know, the scheme and the game plan

1646
01:34:18,680 --> 01:34:21,519
Speaker 1: and changes to the roster in the off season and

1647
01:34:21,640 --> 01:34:24,080
Speaker 1: also changes too. You know, you go from playing like

1648
01:34:24,160 --> 01:34:26,519
Speaker 1: a fourth place schedule to playing like a second place schedule,

1649
01:34:26,600 --> 01:34:28,680
Speaker 1: and who are you who's in your division or by

1650
01:34:28,720 --> 01:34:30,720
Speaker 1: the way, in the AfD East, you know that guy

1651
01:34:30,760 --> 01:34:32,679
Speaker 1: Tom Brady. I don't know if you've heard, but he's

1652
01:34:32,720 --> 01:34:34,880
Speaker 1: no longer in the AfD East, so it's going to

1653
01:34:35,000 --> 01:34:38,479
Speaker 1: change something. But ultimately you want to try to figure

1654
01:34:38,520 --> 01:34:41,519
Speaker 1: out kind of given who the coaches are given, who

1655
01:34:41,560 --> 01:34:44,400
Speaker 1: the coordinators are given, who's calling the plays and who

1656
01:34:44,439 --> 01:34:47,840
Speaker 1: they're calling plays against, who figures to be someone to

1657
01:34:48,000 --> 01:34:50,080
Speaker 1: really look out for this season? And you know, as

1658
01:34:50,160 --> 01:34:52,120
Speaker 1: much as I'd always I always like try to pick

1659
01:34:52,200 --> 01:34:54,439
Speaker 1: defensive players because for whatever reason, I think they don't

1660
01:34:54,439 --> 01:34:58,759
Speaker 1: get enough shine. It's often more interesting for the offensive

1661
01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:00,720
Speaker 1: players because you know what. We a chance to play

1662
01:35:00,760 --> 01:35:03,479
Speaker 1: fantasy soon, so it is time to look at your

1663
01:35:03,520 --> 01:35:08,519
Speaker 1: fantasy draft. Speaking of the Bills, with this article that

1664
01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:12,160
Speaker 1: you wrote, you have Devin's singletary as as someone who's

1665
01:35:12,200 --> 01:35:16,479
Speaker 1: going to be an improved player on this roster for Buffalo.

1666
01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:19,679
Speaker 1: Why is it going to be Devin's singletary? What about

1667
01:35:19,800 --> 01:35:22,360
Speaker 1: him happened last year that you project is going to

1668
01:35:22,439 --> 01:35:25,439
Speaker 1: be even better in his second year in the NFL.

1669
01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:29,400
Speaker 1: So the cool thing about well, first of all, one

1670
01:35:29,439 --> 01:35:31,240
Speaker 1: of the cool things that the Bills there's many, but

1671
01:35:31,360 --> 01:35:33,120
Speaker 1: one of the cool things is when you have a

1672
01:35:33,400 --> 01:35:36,560
Speaker 1: really stable OH line. It really helps people who do

1673
01:35:36,760 --> 01:35:39,759
Speaker 1: a lot of predictions, which really helps us out because

1674
01:35:40,000 --> 01:35:42,519
Speaker 1: OH line is really key and the ability for them

1675
01:35:42,600 --> 01:35:45,400
Speaker 1: to create the right scheme and the right opportunity and

1676
01:35:45,439 --> 01:35:48,400
Speaker 1: the right sort of mix of you know, opportunities for

1677
01:35:48,439 --> 01:35:50,320
Speaker 1: the quarterback and the running backs and the wide receivers.

1678
01:35:50,560 --> 01:35:53,160
Speaker 1: That really helps. When things are stable, life is good.

1679
01:35:53,439 --> 01:35:56,840
Speaker 1: When you have an offensive play caller who's shown creativity.

1680
01:35:56,960 --> 01:35:59,439
Speaker 1: Brian Dable has done just such a great job. A

1681
01:35:59,560 --> 01:36:02,640
Speaker 1: common the type of quarterback that Josh Allen, it's the

1682
01:36:02,680 --> 01:36:06,200
Speaker 1: type of situation, the type of weaponry that you know

1683
01:36:06,240 --> 01:36:08,960
Speaker 1: the Bills have overall in the wide receiving Corps obviously

1684
01:36:09,040 --> 01:36:11,640
Speaker 1: got an upgrade too with Stefan Digg. So when you

1685
01:36:11,720 --> 01:36:14,160
Speaker 1: look at all of those pieces and then you see, Okay,

1686
01:36:14,560 --> 01:36:17,479
Speaker 1: Frank Gore is now at the Jets, stay in AC's

1687
01:36:17,520 --> 01:36:20,639
Speaker 1: just a different team and you have Devin Singletary really

1688
01:36:20,800 --> 01:36:23,760
Speaker 1: figuring to step up into that role. He's got that

1689
01:36:23,920 --> 01:36:26,360
Speaker 1: he had veteran leadership. One of the cool things about

1690
01:36:26,400 --> 01:36:29,080
Speaker 1: Frank Gore is because he's taken like something like ten

1691
01:36:29,200 --> 01:36:31,759
Speaker 1: billion snaps. I'm a math person. I think that's probably

1692
01:36:31,800 --> 01:36:36,960
Speaker 1: the right number. But he he's really good at showing

1693
01:36:37,160 --> 01:36:39,840
Speaker 1: a younger running back what to do. And we've seen

1694
01:36:40,120 --> 01:36:43,040
Speaker 1: we've seen this historically with other teams, like what happened

1695
01:36:43,040 --> 01:36:45,880
Speaker 1: in Miami after he left there, et cetera, et cetera.

1696
01:36:45,880 --> 01:36:48,880
Speaker 1: If you keep going back in time. So ultimately, having

1697
01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:52,240
Speaker 1: that nice combination of the play caller that knows how

1698
01:36:52,280 --> 01:36:55,439
Speaker 1: to really fit the system, a stability at the O line,

1699
01:36:55,760 --> 01:36:59,120
Speaker 1: and development in this way that really nurtures someone. Sure

1700
01:36:59,160 --> 01:37:02,360
Speaker 1: you drafted or back. Okay, Zack Moss is green and

1701
01:37:02,680 --> 01:37:05,519
Speaker 1: it could be fun, but ultimately, who's going to be

1702
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:08,519
Speaker 1: kind of poised to really step up into that role

1703
01:37:08,600 --> 01:37:11,840
Speaker 1: and drive those yards that are required. I don't want

1704
01:37:11,840 --> 01:37:14,400
Speaker 1: to say I'm just rushing yards because there's more versatility

1705
01:37:14,439 --> 01:37:17,240
Speaker 1: there than that, but ultimately drive those yards earned by

1706
01:37:17,320 --> 01:37:19,800
Speaker 1: running backs. It just it really all sets up really

1707
01:37:19,840 --> 01:37:23,760
Speaker 1: well for Devin Singletary. What does your analytics say about

1708
01:37:23,880 --> 01:37:26,439
Speaker 1: Zack Moss. He's the younger guys the Bills drafted. He's

1709
01:37:26,439 --> 01:37:29,400
Speaker 1: going to come in. Maybe they'll split reps exactly like

1710
01:37:29,520 --> 01:37:32,599
Speaker 1: the Bills running backs did last year, except this year,

1711
01:37:32,760 --> 01:37:35,240
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary will be the old guy as a second

1712
01:37:35,320 --> 01:37:38,200
Speaker 1: year player to Zack Moss. What are your analytics say

1713
01:37:38,360 --> 01:37:41,320
Speaker 1: about the success of having two running backs that young

1714
01:37:41,920 --> 01:37:46,120
Speaker 1: in the backfield together? Honestly, I think because they've had

1715
01:37:46,200 --> 01:37:49,080
Speaker 1: that veteran, because there was that vetteran presence for Devon

1716
01:37:49,160 --> 01:37:52,719
Speaker 1: Singletary last season. I think you have a situation where

1717
01:37:52,960 --> 01:37:55,640
Speaker 1: the running back room has more collective knowledge than it

1718
01:37:55,720 --> 01:37:57,519
Speaker 1: might seem with a second year and a first year

1719
01:37:57,600 --> 01:38:00,240
Speaker 1: player together. Again, they haven't been in a room together

1720
01:38:00,360 --> 01:38:04,520
Speaker 1: figuratively to my knowledge, but you know, actually, but figuratively

1721
01:38:04,600 --> 01:38:07,679
Speaker 1: the running back room has more knowledge than it might seem,

1722
01:38:07,760 --> 01:38:10,320
Speaker 1: just based on the faith. For me, the interesting part

1723
01:38:10,439 --> 01:38:13,120
Speaker 1: running back is a one of the positions that more

1724
01:38:13,200 --> 01:38:16,080
Speaker 1: easily translates to the NFL quickly. So if you look

1725
01:38:16,080 --> 01:38:19,040
Speaker 1: at adoption of you know, the playbook and understanding how

1726
01:38:19,040 --> 01:38:21,640
Speaker 1: to read defenses. Yes, the more snaps you take, the

1727
01:38:21,720 --> 01:38:23,960
Speaker 1: better off you are. But the learning curve for running

1728
01:38:23,960 --> 01:38:26,439
Speaker 1: backs tends to be a little shorter than other positions,

1729
01:38:26,560 --> 01:38:30,040
Speaker 1: especially quarterback obviously, but no than other positions where there's

1730
01:38:30,080 --> 01:38:33,080
Speaker 1: more kind of variables at play. But really it's you

1731
01:38:33,160 --> 01:38:34,760
Speaker 1: got to give your hats off to the O line

1732
01:38:34,800 --> 01:38:37,040
Speaker 1: and the stability at the O line, because that will

1733
01:38:37,120 --> 01:38:40,200
Speaker 1: help create a situation where Zach Moss can see what

1734
01:38:40,320 --> 01:38:42,519
Speaker 1: he's supposed to be seeing, quicker and quicker and quicker.

1735
01:38:42,840 --> 01:38:44,519
Speaker 1: I don't know if I think that the snap count

1736
01:38:44,560 --> 01:38:47,160
Speaker 1: will be as fifty fifty or as split as it

1737
01:38:47,320 --> 01:38:50,599
Speaker 1: was last season. I think because of the abbreviated preseason

1738
01:38:50,720 --> 01:38:53,280
Speaker 1: whatever that ends up meaning, I think that we'll see

1739
01:38:53,280 --> 01:38:55,720
Speaker 1: a lot more singletary early and then maybe peppering and

1740
01:38:56,080 --> 01:38:59,640
Speaker 1: more Moss once there are some reps and some you know,

1741
01:38:59,720 --> 01:39:04,200
Speaker 1: some quality opportunities to really learn and prove because they're

1742
01:39:04,240 --> 01:39:05,920
Speaker 1: not they're not dumb. They're not going to like put

1743
01:39:05,960 --> 01:39:08,960
Speaker 1: at risk, you know, any loss of yards before they

1744
01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:11,920
Speaker 1: have to. And Devin Singletary his ability to earn yards

1745
01:39:11,960 --> 01:39:15,200
Speaker 1: after contact is really one of those things that totally

1746
01:39:15,240 --> 01:39:18,000
Speaker 1: sets them apart. So that makes them special, that makes

1747
01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:21,000
Speaker 1: him reliable, that makes him one of those those players

1748
01:39:21,040 --> 01:39:23,639
Speaker 1: that the Bills can just you know, the Zach Moss

1749
01:39:23,760 --> 01:39:26,680
Speaker 1: will be able to have, like the opportunity to not

1750
01:39:26,760 --> 01:39:29,880
Speaker 1: be able to have to play first day. There's a

1751
01:39:29,960 --> 01:39:33,400
Speaker 1: lot of conversations about Josh Allen and just how much

1752
01:39:33,840 --> 01:39:36,800
Speaker 1: is going to be on his shoulders in year three.

1753
01:39:36,840 --> 01:39:39,240
Speaker 1: A lot of people say the Bills can only go

1754
01:39:39,439 --> 01:39:41,719
Speaker 1: as far as Josh Allen goes. And we saw Josh

1755
01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:44,840
Speaker 1: Allen make strides from year one to year two, whether

1756
01:39:44,960 --> 01:39:51,200
Speaker 1: it was decision making, his completion percentage, rushing, touchdowns, touchdowns, overall,

1757
01:39:51,280 --> 01:39:54,320
Speaker 1: he improved in a lot of statistical categories. From an

1758
01:39:54,320 --> 01:39:58,000
Speaker 1: analytics standpoint, where do you think Josh Allen needs to

1759
01:39:58,120 --> 01:40:02,799
Speaker 1: improve his game the most? I think, ultimately Josh Allen

1760
01:40:03,080 --> 01:40:06,120
Speaker 1: probably the thing that he'll benefit from in season three

1761
01:40:06,520 --> 01:40:09,760
Speaker 1: and most look, for whatever reason, I don't know when

1762
01:40:09,800 --> 01:40:11,680
Speaker 1: it was decided, but you know, for whatever reason, it

1763
01:40:11,720 --> 01:40:13,960
Speaker 1: probably has something to do with like coach and GM

1764
01:40:14,320 --> 01:40:16,800
Speaker 1: you know, turnover, right, Like typically teams who get new

1765
01:40:16,840 --> 01:40:19,360
Speaker 1: coaches and gms, they don't have a great quarterback. But

1766
01:40:19,680 --> 01:40:22,800
Speaker 1: so that's about three seasons is when we believe sort

1767
01:40:22,840 --> 01:40:25,640
Speaker 1: of football people believe they know quote unquote who a

1768
01:40:25,760 --> 01:40:28,360
Speaker 1: player is. So in the third season, you know you'll

1769
01:40:28,360 --> 01:40:29,960
Speaker 1: see it from Sam Ronald too, you see it from

1770
01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:32,560
Speaker 1: all of these third year guys, right, Like, ultimately, what

1771
01:40:32,960 --> 01:40:34,960
Speaker 1: Josh Allen will need to do is I'm going to

1772
01:40:35,040 --> 01:40:37,200
Speaker 1: say the word decision making. And I'm gonna say it

1773
01:40:37,560 --> 01:40:40,040
Speaker 1: not necessarily like I'm not saying this in a way

1774
01:40:40,120 --> 01:40:42,400
Speaker 1: that I don't think he understands the playbook well, but

1775
01:40:42,520 --> 01:40:45,800
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna now he's been equipped, Like giving

1776
01:40:45,880 --> 01:40:49,960
Speaker 1: him Stefon Diggs creates a perimeter threat. It creates more

1777
01:40:50,200 --> 01:40:54,719
Speaker 1: space conceivably for them to all work with. So he'll

1778
01:40:54,720 --> 01:40:58,439
Speaker 1: be able to make decisions that aren't based on you know,

1779
01:40:58,880 --> 01:41:01,840
Speaker 1: someone not being open or kind of a scrunched up

1780
01:41:01,880 --> 01:41:05,559
Speaker 1: middle of the field because nobody draws out perimeter play

1781
01:41:06,120 --> 01:41:09,479
Speaker 1: like they would optimally like you, especially for someone with

1782
01:41:09,800 --> 01:41:13,280
Speaker 1: unarmed like Josh Allen's, So it will be decision making

1783
01:41:13,439 --> 01:41:16,720
Speaker 1: given Now that there's more reliable weapons, there's more you know,

1784
01:41:17,520 --> 01:41:20,720
Speaker 1: there's more stability. John Brown's great, like there's all of

1785
01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:24,519
Speaker 1: these options for him and taking those options and making

1786
01:41:24,600 --> 01:41:27,360
Speaker 1: the best use of them. Because, by the way, the

1787
01:41:27,520 --> 01:41:29,680
Speaker 1: thing that Josh Allen has it not everyone else has

1788
01:41:29,760 --> 01:41:32,040
Speaker 1: is I mean those rushing touchdowns were in an accident.

1789
01:41:32,200 --> 01:41:35,200
Speaker 1: You know, he's a very good rushing threat all and

1790
01:41:35,360 --> 01:41:37,920
Speaker 1: on every down, which helps out. So maybe it is

1791
01:41:38,200 --> 01:41:40,439
Speaker 1: deciding to hand the ball off of Devin Singletary where

1792
01:41:40,479 --> 01:41:42,840
Speaker 1: and before you know, the zone read he maybe didn't

1793
01:41:42,960 --> 01:41:44,879
Speaker 1: he wouldn't have had to, or you know, a designed

1794
01:41:44,960 --> 01:41:47,600
Speaker 1: rush could be more disguised. So it will be the

1795
01:41:47,800 --> 01:41:51,439
Speaker 1: maturation process and the you know, the opportunity to really

1796
01:41:51,479 --> 01:41:54,200
Speaker 1: take the playbook and own it and be comfortable with

1797
01:41:54,320 --> 01:41:57,160
Speaker 1: a bunch of different decisions. Now that they will seriatically

1798
01:41:57,240 --> 01:42:01,280
Speaker 1: have more space to work with we're talking without. Cynthia

1799
01:42:01,360 --> 01:42:04,080
Speaker 1: Freeland joined the NFL Network in twenty sixteen as an

1800
01:42:04,080 --> 01:42:08,080
Speaker 1: analytics expert. She provides her insights into NFL game on

1801
01:42:08,320 --> 01:42:10,840
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live and I want to ask you one

1802
01:42:10,920 --> 01:42:13,839
Speaker 1: fantasy question. A guy like Stefan Diggs comes to Buffalo.

1803
01:42:13,880 --> 01:42:17,400
Speaker 1: They've already got two receivers in John Brown and Cole

1804
01:42:17,439 --> 01:42:20,200
Speaker 1: Beasley that are prolific, and they've they've you know, they've

1805
01:42:20,240 --> 01:42:23,679
Speaker 1: got some production behind them. When you add a player

1806
01:42:23,760 --> 01:42:28,080
Speaker 1: like Steph Diggs to an already set receiver roster for

1807
01:42:28,240 --> 01:42:32,280
Speaker 1: fantasy players and for just playing winning football games, what

1808
01:42:32,479 --> 01:42:35,880
Speaker 1: happens to the to the opportunities and the targets for

1809
01:42:35,960 --> 01:42:39,240
Speaker 1: all of those players going forward? I think you see

1810
01:42:39,280 --> 01:42:41,479
Speaker 1: Cole Beasley pay off his contract a little bit more

1811
01:42:41,600 --> 01:42:44,200
Speaker 1: this year because the slot, which is where he typically

1812
01:42:44,280 --> 01:42:46,840
Speaker 1: operates from, was very crowded last year. I talk about

1813
01:42:46,840 --> 01:42:48,960
Speaker 1: the middle of the field. You know, when you when

1814
01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:51,639
Speaker 1: you only had so John Brown, you're deep threatened that guy.

1815
01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:55,840
Speaker 1: He's great, right, And that's interesting. Now you have Stefon Diggs. Well,

1816
01:42:55,880 --> 01:42:57,800
Speaker 1: now you have now who are you gonna guard? Right?

1817
01:42:57,840 --> 01:43:00,360
Speaker 1: Who are you sending your number one quarter one? You're

1818
01:43:00,400 --> 01:43:03,679
Speaker 1: gonna leave John Brown open? You're gonna leave Stefon Diggs open.

1819
01:43:03,800 --> 01:43:07,040
Speaker 1: Like we got some decisions to make, right, So that

1820
01:43:07,240 --> 01:43:09,680
Speaker 1: will be an interesting thing. Now. I don't think for

1821
01:43:09,800 --> 01:43:13,559
Speaker 1: fantasy purposes that means they probably vulture a little bit

1822
01:43:13,600 --> 01:43:16,360
Speaker 1: of each other's target share. But I do think you

1823
01:43:16,479 --> 01:43:20,320
Speaker 1: could be sneaky with your strategy for targeting Bills players

1824
01:43:20,600 --> 01:43:22,799
Speaker 1: and take Cole Beasley in one of the later fantasy

1825
01:43:22,880 --> 01:43:26,080
Speaker 1: rounds and be really happy with that slot production uptick

1826
01:43:26,200 --> 01:43:29,439
Speaker 1: because those two guys, John Brown and Stefon Diggs are

1827
01:43:29,560 --> 01:43:32,439
Speaker 1: going to help leave the middle of the field where

1828
01:43:32,560 --> 01:43:34,760
Speaker 1: Cole Beasley has shown when he was a Cowboy and

1829
01:43:35,200 --> 01:43:37,839
Speaker 1: as a Bill, but even more this season he projects

1830
01:43:37,880 --> 01:43:40,360
Speaker 1: to show really what he can do between the Hashians.

1831
01:43:42,040 --> 01:43:46,360
Speaker 1: Speaking of being sneaky during fantasy football draft, let's talk

1832
01:43:46,360 --> 01:43:49,400
Speaker 1: about some other Bills players who could be a good

1833
01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:52,040
Speaker 1: grab in some late rounds. What do you think about

1834
01:43:52,200 --> 01:43:55,519
Speaker 1: Zach Moss, Dawson Knox, Tyler Croft, some of those players

1835
01:43:55,760 --> 01:43:59,760
Speaker 1: who maybe left off frosters. Is there anybody on the

1836
01:43:59,800 --> 01:44:02,360
Speaker 1: Bills that you would target like those three or any

1837
01:44:02,400 --> 01:44:04,800
Speaker 1: that I haven't mentioned that are a good grab that

1838
01:44:05,240 --> 01:44:07,360
Speaker 1: you could put in a starting lineup or they could

1839
01:44:07,400 --> 01:44:09,680
Speaker 1: sit on your bench and be an easy plug in

1840
01:44:10,200 --> 01:44:14,640
Speaker 1: against certain opponents. Yeah, I definitely, I definitely think like

1841
01:44:14,800 --> 01:44:17,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Croft's a really interesting one for me. I told

1842
01:44:17,200 --> 01:44:18,960
Speaker 1: you I like Zach Moss a little bit later in

1843
01:44:19,000 --> 01:44:21,360
Speaker 1: the season. I would take Zach Moss. I would take

1844
01:44:21,400 --> 01:44:23,040
Speaker 1: him in a very late round, and I would expect

1845
01:44:23,120 --> 01:44:26,080
Speaker 1: production sort of later in the season. I wouldn't play

1846
01:44:26,120 --> 01:44:28,160
Speaker 1: in Week one. I wouldn't even like I'm not thinking

1847
01:44:28,160 --> 01:44:30,800
Speaker 1: about a Week one. I'm thinking, you know, let him. Well, okay,

1848
01:44:31,240 --> 01:44:33,679
Speaker 1: if there's a preseason and somehow we see him play

1849
01:44:33,680 --> 01:44:36,479
Speaker 1: a lot, then I reserve the right can change my opinion.

1850
01:44:36,600 --> 01:44:40,320
Speaker 1: But given it have much of a preseason, I think

1851
01:44:40,400 --> 01:44:42,479
Speaker 1: that I think you could do your Zach Moss later.

1852
01:44:42,520 --> 01:44:45,080
Speaker 1: But Tyler Croft could be an interesting one because I'm

1853
01:44:45,080 --> 01:44:48,320
Speaker 1: not really sure what to make of him. And then,

1854
01:44:48,560 --> 01:44:51,720
Speaker 1: of course the other running backs are all interesting, but

1855
01:44:52,200 --> 01:44:56,040
Speaker 1: probably not unless somebody unfortunately gets hurt, so I would

1856
01:44:56,080 --> 01:44:58,000
Speaker 1: I think those are probably ones you could pick up

1857
01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:01,400
Speaker 1: on a waiver wire should should some unfortunate happen to

1858
01:45:01,520 --> 01:45:04,320
Speaker 1: someone else. But again, the Tyler Croft one could be

1859
01:45:04,760 --> 01:45:06,920
Speaker 1: that one that was intriguing. I'm not sure how. I

1860
01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:08,720
Speaker 1: gotta I gotta figure out what I think about that

1861
01:45:08,800 --> 01:45:11,720
Speaker 1: a little bit more. But there's something I sniffed something there.

1862
01:45:11,720 --> 01:45:15,000
Speaker 1: I just don't know exactly what it is. I want

1863
01:45:15,040 --> 01:45:18,599
Speaker 1: to ask one question for me about about fantasy as

1864
01:45:18,640 --> 01:45:22,000
Speaker 1: we move forward, how high could you would you pick

1865
01:45:22,240 --> 01:45:25,280
Speaker 1: the Bill's defense. Given all the defense in league, how

1866
01:45:25,600 --> 01:45:27,560
Speaker 1: could the Bill's defense be the first one off the

1867
01:45:27,600 --> 01:45:30,479
Speaker 1: board for you this season? Oh? Absolutely, it could easily

1868
01:45:30,479 --> 01:45:32,719
Speaker 1: be the first one off the board. I mean deep. Okay,

1869
01:45:32,760 --> 01:45:35,439
Speaker 1: So when it comes to fantasy, just this, please look

1870
01:45:35,520 --> 01:45:37,800
Speaker 1: to see how your points are scored, because I think

1871
01:45:37,880 --> 01:45:40,760
Speaker 1: sometimes people up these commissioners and these fantasy leagues, they

1872
01:45:40,840 --> 01:45:44,080
Speaker 1: go through and either they like jack up some things.

1873
01:45:44,120 --> 01:45:46,880
Speaker 1: They're like, hey, I didn't know interceptions were worth twice

1874
01:45:46,920 --> 01:45:49,080
Speaker 1: as much as I thought, right, So just go look

1875
01:45:49,120 --> 01:45:52,200
Speaker 1: to see how it scored, because I think sometimes people

1876
01:45:52,200 --> 01:45:54,160
Speaker 1: are like, well, this defense is really good, but then

1877
01:45:54,200 --> 01:45:56,759
Speaker 1: you're not realizing that it's like how the points are scored.

1878
01:45:57,120 --> 01:46:01,160
Speaker 1: That that matters, right, Because I played on ones where

1879
01:46:01,160 --> 01:46:02,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, hey I thought this, and you're like no, no, no,

1880
01:46:02,640 --> 01:46:04,640
Speaker 1: no no, it's all about back to olds. Are like,

1881
01:46:04,760 --> 01:46:08,080
Speaker 1: really that's weird. So take a look at it, double check.

1882
01:46:08,400 --> 01:46:10,040
Speaker 1: Bills could certainly be I mean, they should be in

1883
01:46:10,120 --> 01:46:13,320
Speaker 1: your top three. I can't imagine the Bills defense lasting

1884
01:46:13,600 --> 01:46:16,840
Speaker 1: past three unless someone does something crazy and they're just

1885
01:46:16,920 --> 01:46:20,040
Speaker 1: picking with their heart instead of their mind. But you know,

1886
01:46:21,200 --> 01:46:24,160
Speaker 1: I love I love the Bills front I've written extensively

1887
01:46:24,200 --> 01:46:26,760
Speaker 1: about how I think the front is really smartly constructed

1888
01:46:26,800 --> 01:46:29,720
Speaker 1: with some young some you know, a good blend of

1889
01:46:29,840 --> 01:46:34,160
Speaker 1: veteran and you know, young leadership on the team. And obviously,

1890
01:46:34,320 --> 01:46:38,040
Speaker 1: I mean, does anyone pimp your corner more than me?

1891
01:46:38,120 --> 01:46:40,200
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm like the leader of the Dreaming

1892
01:46:41,320 --> 01:46:44,960
Speaker 1: White bandwagon, and I talk about your safety's a lot too.

1893
01:46:45,080 --> 01:46:47,960
Speaker 1: I've written like extends about Jordan Poyer and Micahid like

1894
01:46:48,479 --> 01:46:50,439
Speaker 1: I feel like I've like really like I really like

1895
01:46:50,920 --> 01:46:55,640
Speaker 1: bang the Bill's defense drum for a while. Now I

1896
01:46:55,720 --> 01:46:58,200
Speaker 1: absolutely love it. I mean, we love Trey White here,

1897
01:46:58,240 --> 01:47:00,439
Speaker 1: we love Jordan Poyer, we love Micah right, I mean,

1898
01:47:00,479 --> 01:47:03,679
Speaker 1: they're a big reason why this defense is so talented

1899
01:47:03,720 --> 01:47:07,240
Speaker 1: and is so hard to crack for opposing offenses. Let's say,

1900
01:47:07,520 --> 01:47:10,160
Speaker 1: on fantasy football, one more question for you, let's go

1901
01:47:10,320 --> 01:47:13,240
Speaker 1: outside of the Bills. Give me a few names that

1902
01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:17,160
Speaker 1: we should pick up in our fantasy football drafts, whether

1903
01:47:17,280 --> 01:47:20,600
Speaker 1: that be within our first couple rounds or maybe some

1904
01:47:20,800 --> 01:47:24,400
Speaker 1: late round players that might go under the radar. Yeah,

1905
01:47:24,439 --> 01:47:26,599
Speaker 1: I think right now, at least would we've been doing

1906
01:47:26,840 --> 01:47:28,840
Speaker 1: luckily like the fun part of the between these like

1907
01:47:29,240 --> 01:47:31,160
Speaker 1: mock draft things we get to see a little bit

1908
01:47:31,200 --> 01:47:33,639
Speaker 1: more about where like people are being drafted on average.

1909
01:47:34,320 --> 01:47:37,200
Speaker 1: I think you want to beware of Leonard Fournette. He

1910
01:47:37,320 --> 01:47:40,599
Speaker 1: seems to be going higher than like way too high

1911
01:47:40,640 --> 01:47:43,640
Speaker 1: in my opinion, like second third round. I would be

1912
01:47:43,920 --> 01:47:47,600
Speaker 1: quite leery of that one and staying down there. And

1913
01:47:47,680 --> 01:47:49,559
Speaker 1: part of the reason why I think that is because

1914
01:47:49,720 --> 01:47:53,280
Speaker 1: laviska chenal wide receiver that was drafted by the Jags. He's,

1915
01:47:53,520 --> 01:47:56,040
Speaker 1: you know, rookie, He's coming out of Colorado. He's kind

1916
01:47:56,080 --> 01:47:59,000
Speaker 1: of more like a more like a pass catching and

1917
01:47:59,080 --> 01:48:01,680
Speaker 1: running back than he is a true receiver. So you

1918
01:48:01,760 --> 01:48:04,559
Speaker 1: could go super late round, take a fire on Labiscos

1919
01:48:04,600 --> 01:48:07,639
Speaker 1: Chanolt and then beat and kind of like sneaky steal

1920
01:48:07,720 --> 01:48:10,719
Speaker 1: those points from whoever over drafted Leonard Fournette in your draft.

1921
01:48:11,360 --> 01:48:15,840
Speaker 1: That's what I'm noticing. I'm also noticing a very like

1922
01:48:16,000 --> 01:48:18,800
Speaker 1: an interesting so I like, I like these receivers. There's

1923
01:48:18,800 --> 01:48:20,679
Speaker 1: these seems to be a ton of receivers this season

1924
01:48:20,920 --> 01:48:22,519
Speaker 1: that people don't really know what to do. There's like

1925
01:48:22,600 --> 01:48:25,960
Speaker 1: this huge like there's all these receivers that were drafted

1926
01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:29,400
Speaker 1: and you know, these big name receivers change teams, et cetera,

1927
01:48:29,479 --> 01:48:32,320
Speaker 1: et cetera. You know, I think keep it really simple.

1928
01:48:32,439 --> 01:48:35,519
Speaker 1: Remember on each team, there's a guy like Kenny Galladay

1929
01:48:35,600 --> 01:48:39,120
Speaker 1: for the Lions, right deep threat. He's getting his quarterback back.

1930
01:48:39,400 --> 01:48:42,160
Speaker 1: The Lions figure to be playing from behind in many games.

1931
01:48:42,479 --> 01:48:44,360
Speaker 1: And I'm a Lions fan. I'm from Michigan. I can

1932
01:48:44,400 --> 01:48:45,960
Speaker 1: tell you that. So it's I'm not being I'm not

1933
01:48:47,120 --> 01:48:49,080
Speaker 1: the model says that, not just me. I wish they

1934
01:48:49,080 --> 01:48:50,960
Speaker 1: would be playing from a head. But that's great for

1935
01:48:51,000 --> 01:48:54,000
Speaker 1: a guy like Kenny Galladay. So he's drafted, he's falling

1936
01:48:54,080 --> 01:48:56,800
Speaker 1: to like, you know, later round. I think I saw

1937
01:48:56,920 --> 01:48:59,720
Speaker 1: fourth or fifth round even on him. You could you

1938
01:48:59,760 --> 01:49:02,240
Speaker 1: could get him in those late rounds if you really

1939
01:49:02,400 --> 01:49:04,439
Speaker 1: happy that you've got a guy like that, or a

1940
01:49:04,479 --> 01:49:07,120
Speaker 1: guy like Alan Robinson for the Bears, who you know,

1941
01:49:07,200 --> 01:49:09,240
Speaker 1: by the way, he's in a contract season and he's

1942
01:49:09,240 --> 01:49:11,800
Speaker 1: a true wide out one. He's going in these later rounds.

1943
01:49:11,800 --> 01:49:13,640
Speaker 1: So just keep an eye. See, you know, you can

1944
01:49:13,760 --> 01:49:16,240
Speaker 1: put your put a little tab on those guys and

1945
01:49:16,400 --> 01:49:19,080
Speaker 1: see how late you could go potentially get them, and

1946
01:49:19,160 --> 01:49:22,200
Speaker 1: then you could kind of outmatch someone who maybe drafted

1947
01:49:22,240 --> 01:49:24,160
Speaker 1: a bit too high on some of the others. And

1948
01:49:24,200 --> 01:49:25,880
Speaker 1: then oh, one last one, because we need to throw

1949
01:49:25,880 --> 01:49:27,599
Speaker 1: a running back in there. Otherwise, I mean, what would

1950
01:49:27,600 --> 01:49:29,400
Speaker 1: I be doing if I didn't tell you a running back.

1951
01:49:29,720 --> 01:49:31,680
Speaker 1: I think you want to look at Kenyon Drake, who

1952
01:49:31,760 --> 01:49:35,719
Speaker 1: plays for the Cardinals, and you know, remember David Johnson

1953
01:49:35,920 --> 01:49:39,720
Speaker 1: now a Texan. Kenyan Drake figures are really excel in

1954
01:49:39,800 --> 01:49:42,679
Speaker 1: that role. This fast paced offense has done him really well.

1955
01:49:43,000 --> 01:49:45,400
Speaker 1: He runs really fast. He's gotten fifteen plus yards and

1956
01:49:45,479 --> 01:49:48,360
Speaker 1: reached fifteen plus miles per hour around those yards, meaning

1957
01:49:48,520 --> 01:49:50,400
Speaker 1: they're opening up spaces for him. Even though they have

1958
01:49:50,520 --> 01:49:54,280
Speaker 1: kind of a dicey O line this hole. With DeAndre

1959
01:49:54,360 --> 01:49:56,560
Speaker 1: Hopkins now there, they're gonna have more space to run with.

1960
01:49:56,800 --> 01:49:58,599
Speaker 1: So I think a guy like Kenyan Drake could really

1961
01:49:58,680 --> 01:50:01,479
Speaker 1: be one of those running back ones in a PPR situation.

1962
01:50:01,760 --> 01:50:04,000
Speaker 1: But you probably can get him for a value way

1963
01:50:04,160 --> 01:50:07,719
Speaker 1: later than other people are thinking. Cynthia. One last question,

1964
01:50:07,760 --> 01:50:09,519
Speaker 1: and it's a two part question to see if you

1965
01:50:09,560 --> 01:50:11,400
Speaker 1: can stay with me in twenty and eighteen. I want

1966
01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:13,080
Speaker 1: you to think about a player we didn't know about,

1967
01:50:13,120 --> 01:50:15,920
Speaker 1: maybe a rookie or whoever, that turned into a guy

1968
01:50:16,000 --> 01:50:18,760
Speaker 1: in two tho nineteen that everybody had to have and

1969
01:50:18,920 --> 01:50:22,360
Speaker 1: now look forward a guy that maybe was around this year,

1970
01:50:23,160 --> 01:50:25,800
Speaker 1: this last year in twenty nineteen that you think might

1971
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:28,760
Speaker 1: explode and become a, you know, a giant in the

1972
01:50:28,880 --> 01:50:31,120
Speaker 1: fantasy football world. Was there a guy like that two

1973
01:50:31,240 --> 01:50:34,080
Speaker 1: years ago that happened to last year and a guy

1974
01:50:34,240 --> 01:50:37,720
Speaker 1: that maybe you can project it at happening to this year. Yeah,

1975
01:50:37,800 --> 01:50:39,960
Speaker 1: I mean, look, it's it's actually hard to like live

1976
01:50:40,040 --> 01:50:43,200
Speaker 1: up to expectations. So like the Seyquon Barkley thing just

1977
01:50:43,280 --> 01:50:45,839
Speaker 1: speaks to how good he is. I think that ultimately,

1978
01:50:46,240 --> 01:50:49,120
Speaker 1: you know, you saw, you saw there was some interesting

1979
01:50:50,439 --> 01:50:52,280
Speaker 1: I'm trying to like, I'm trying to because Mike Kenny

1980
01:50:52,400 --> 01:50:53,760
Speaker 1: Drake one is probably the guy who I think is

1981
01:50:53,760 --> 01:50:57,559
Speaker 1: exploding it's going to really overperform. I think you also

1982
01:50:57,640 --> 01:50:59,720
Speaker 1: want to look at you know, you might you might

1983
01:50:59,720 --> 01:51:03,600
Speaker 1: own to take a look at a situation like like

1984
01:51:03,760 --> 01:51:08,360
Speaker 1: what's going on with the Rams, right you can is

1985
01:51:08,400 --> 01:51:10,000
Speaker 1: it going to be Darrell Henderson? Are we going to

1986
01:51:10,080 --> 01:51:13,200
Speaker 1: look at their get their first round PICKMP okay makers,

1987
01:51:13,240 --> 01:51:15,120
Speaker 1: like what's going on there? And then you also want

1988
01:51:15,160 --> 01:51:18,160
Speaker 1: to look at Tampa Bay. So Tampa Bay running back

1989
01:51:18,160 --> 01:51:21,559
Speaker 1: to those are some rookies that where I might find

1990
01:51:21,720 --> 01:51:23,479
Speaker 1: some good value, Like if you're in a keep early

1991
01:51:23,640 --> 01:51:25,840
Speaker 1: who's draft him late, and then they could explode for

1992
01:51:25,880 --> 01:51:27,840
Speaker 1: you this season and then also explode for you again

1993
01:51:27,880 --> 01:51:30,240
Speaker 1: when you can keep them in the next season. And

1994
01:51:30,360 --> 01:51:32,080
Speaker 1: you know some people who are and oh, you know what.

1995
01:51:32,600 --> 01:51:34,559
Speaker 1: I hate to say this because he's also ansty East,

1996
01:51:34,800 --> 01:51:36,519
Speaker 1: but I do think we could see this. It might

1997
01:51:36,560 --> 01:51:38,920
Speaker 1: be the resurgence of the left bell this season. I

1998
01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:41,280
Speaker 1: think he's going a little bit too low as well.

1999
01:51:41,360 --> 01:51:43,000
Speaker 1: I think, I mean, they don't have Mary made task

2000
01:51:43,080 --> 01:51:45,200
Speaker 1: catchers for the Jets, and so I think they're gonna

2001
01:51:45,240 --> 01:51:47,240
Speaker 1: need a left bell. They're also gonna need Chris Herndon

2002
01:51:47,280 --> 01:51:49,960
Speaker 1: their tight end to really perform. So both of those

2003
01:51:50,400 --> 01:51:53,600
Speaker 1: two could be could be interesting ones. I'm trying to

2004
01:51:53,640 --> 01:51:57,320
Speaker 1: think if there's any good like hayden Hurst, who's now

2005
01:51:57,800 --> 01:52:01,160
Speaker 1: a Falcon. He was one of the Ravens tight ends

2006
01:52:01,200 --> 01:52:03,040
Speaker 1: and he went to the fousand. You're looking for a

2007
01:52:03,160 --> 01:52:05,720
Speaker 1: nice tight end steal, hayden Hurst could be one you

2008
01:52:05,760 --> 01:52:10,200
Speaker 1: could circle. Cynthia, Thanks so much. I enjoyed talking with you.

2019
01:52:50,880 --> 01:52:53,160
Speaker 1: thanks you Cynthia Freeland for coming on the last half hour.

2020
01:52:53,520 --> 01:52:57,760
Speaker 1: Mattie Ready for NFL true false. It is time for

2021
01:52:57,960 --> 01:53:00,920
Speaker 1: true false. It's one of the things about the media

2022
01:53:01,000 --> 01:53:03,200
Speaker 1: today and the reason we get to these the true falls,

2023
01:53:03,320 --> 01:53:06,160
Speaker 1: we get to what's for lunch. So many outlets and

2024
01:53:06,200 --> 01:53:09,280
Speaker 1: there's so many platforms around the National Football League, around sports,

2025
01:53:09,360 --> 01:53:13,520
Speaker 1: they always put out something that is always either irresistibly

2026
01:53:13,640 --> 01:53:18,960
Speaker 1: dumb or or it's you know, a hot take, controversial.

2027
01:53:18,960 --> 01:53:21,519
Speaker 1: Everybody's always throwing stuff out. The content, you know, with

2028
01:53:21,680 --> 01:53:23,840
Speaker 1: people in the media is constant, so we always see

2029
01:53:23,920 --> 01:53:25,240
Speaker 1: some of it or most of it, And I think

2030
01:53:25,320 --> 01:53:27,439
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know, So we're going to figure

2031
01:53:27,439 --> 01:53:30,200
Speaker 1: out some of it. Is pretty good questions. They ask

2032
01:53:30,240 --> 01:53:31,960
Speaker 1: pretty good questions, and here's one of them. These are

2033
01:53:32,000 --> 01:53:34,760
Speaker 1: these true false questions. NFL True False brought to you

2034
01:53:34,840 --> 01:53:38,200
Speaker 1: by Yancey's Fantasy, New York's Artists and Cheese. Ready, I

2035
01:53:38,400 --> 01:53:41,679
Speaker 1: Am ready, let's go for it. If NFL true falls,

2036
01:53:41,800 --> 01:53:44,280
Speaker 1: number one Saints are a super Bowl team in twenty

2037
01:53:44,400 --> 01:53:48,720
Speaker 1: twenty true false? Is that saying they're gonna win the

2038
01:53:48,840 --> 01:53:52,000
Speaker 1: Super Bowl or they're just that means they're gonna be

2039
01:53:52,080 --> 01:53:53,760
Speaker 1: And I think they're gonna be in the conversation they

2040
01:53:53,840 --> 01:53:58,479
Speaker 1: can get the conversation. Yeah, I do too. I think

2041
01:53:58,720 --> 01:54:00,920
Speaker 1: you can say that right now, and you've got us

2042
01:54:01,479 --> 01:54:03,240
Speaker 1: much chance of being right as you do saying it

2043
01:54:03,280 --> 01:54:05,519
Speaker 1: about the Rams or the forty nine ers, or any

2044
01:54:05,560 --> 01:54:09,559
Speaker 1: the other team of Seattle Seahawks, any other NFC teams

2045
01:54:09,600 --> 01:54:12,960
Speaker 1: that could get there. I just think I think the

2046
01:54:13,680 --> 01:54:16,320
Speaker 1: Drew Brees and Sean Payton have been a combination that

2047
01:54:16,439 --> 01:54:18,360
Speaker 1: has been hard to beat for a decade, and I

2048
01:54:18,400 --> 01:54:21,759
Speaker 1: don't think that's gonna change. He's got some great weapons

2049
01:54:21,840 --> 01:54:24,320
Speaker 1: on offense, they've got a good defense. Yeah, I think

2050
01:54:24,400 --> 01:54:27,080
Speaker 1: this team is definitely in the conversation and could go

2051
01:54:27,960 --> 01:54:30,040
Speaker 1: far in the playoffs and make it all the way

2052
01:54:30,040 --> 01:54:32,080
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. This is the team that will

2053
01:54:32,080 --> 01:54:33,320
Speaker 1: tell you right now that they should have been in

2054
01:54:33,320 --> 01:54:35,360
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl instid of the Rams against the Patriots.

2055
01:54:35,400 --> 01:54:38,320
Speaker 1: They were, They've been in the playoffs, playoffs, playoffs, playoffs,

2056
01:54:38,480 --> 01:54:41,640
Speaker 1: NFC Championship playoffs. I mean, they just they're they're all

2057
01:54:41,760 --> 01:54:45,800
Speaker 1: the time, and they just know how to get into

2058
01:54:45,880 --> 01:54:49,360
Speaker 1: those big moments. And Drew Brees has been a phenomenal

2059
01:54:49,480 --> 01:54:52,600
Speaker 1: quarterback for them. That's not going to change. And I

2060
01:54:52,960 --> 01:54:54,680
Speaker 1: just think, yeah, if you're gonna pick a team that's

2061
01:54:54,680 --> 01:54:58,040
Speaker 1: gonna be really good, the New Orleans Saints are as

2062
01:54:58,120 --> 01:55:00,320
Speaker 1: good a choice as any. So I'll say true to

2063
01:55:00,400 --> 01:55:04,280
Speaker 1: that as well. NFL true false Number two it's a

2064
01:55:04,280 --> 01:55:08,480
Speaker 1: little different one. We just crushed this question in our

2065
01:55:08,800 --> 01:55:11,120
Speaker 1: half hour debate with Chris Brown, but here it is.

2066
01:55:11,720 --> 01:55:14,280
Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew is the most underrated player in the AFC

2067
01:55:14,480 --> 01:55:19,520
Speaker 1: South Gardner Minshew may be my most underrated player in

2068
01:55:19,640 --> 01:55:26,640
Speaker 1: the entire league because he's he's not very highly thought of. No,

2069
01:55:27,120 --> 01:55:30,040
Speaker 1: I mean, he had a few games last year where

2070
01:55:30,080 --> 01:55:33,320
Speaker 1: it was like, yeah, who who is this quarterback? I

2071
01:55:33,440 --> 01:55:39,000
Speaker 1: think he has a lot to prove as Jacksonville's quarterback,

2072
01:55:39,160 --> 01:55:43,560
Speaker 1: So I would I would call him underrated. Yeah, I

2073
01:55:43,600 --> 01:55:46,560
Speaker 1: think he's a radar as well. Now they let Nick

2074
01:55:46,640 --> 01:55:50,120
Speaker 1: Foles go and kept Gardner Minshew. Last year he went

2075
01:55:50,200 --> 01:55:52,080
Speaker 1: six and six as a starter. Last year, he had

2076
01:55:52,120 --> 01:55:55,200
Speaker 1: twenty one touchdowns and six interceptions. Now, let me tell

2077
01:55:55,200 --> 01:55:58,640
Speaker 1: you something for a sixth round rookie quarterback. Not too

2078
01:55:58,880 --> 01:56:02,320
Speaker 1: bad hat to that guy. Yeah, I really do. And

2079
01:56:02,680 --> 01:56:06,360
Speaker 1: and he's and he's getting a built a rapport with

2080
01:56:06,840 --> 01:56:10,280
Speaker 1: Dj Clark youn receiver at one thousand and eight receiving yards,

2081
01:56:10,320 --> 01:56:14,879
Speaker 1: had eight touchdowns. He did enough to cement him himself

2082
01:56:14,920 --> 01:56:18,160
Speaker 1: as the team starter. Jacks didn't sign anybody, didn't didn't

2083
01:56:18,320 --> 01:56:22,280
Speaker 1: seriously keep want to keep Nick Foles in the fold. Uh,

2084
01:56:22,400 --> 01:56:25,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna build a jack Jack's gonna build a roster

2085
01:56:25,480 --> 01:56:28,640
Speaker 1: around Gardner Minshew to try and support him and build

2086
01:56:28,680 --> 01:56:30,440
Speaker 1: a roster with a guy in his rookie contract, a

2087
01:56:30,520 --> 01:56:33,040
Speaker 1: sixth round draft pick, and they're gonna try and build

2088
01:56:33,040 --> 01:56:34,840
Speaker 1: a championship that way. Now you could say a lot

2089
01:56:34,880 --> 01:56:39,200
Speaker 1: of people are saying, hey, they're they're tanking. Uh, I

2090
01:56:39,280 --> 01:56:43,400
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know if in that quarterback room,

2091
01:56:44,000 --> 01:56:47,080
Speaker 1: Jay Gruden is now on as Jacksonville's offensive coordinator just

2092
01:56:47,240 --> 01:56:50,120
Speaker 1: over is that from the head coach coaching extint of Washington?

2093
01:56:50,240 --> 01:56:53,040
Speaker 1: And uh? You know, there's a lot of people who

2094
01:56:53,080 --> 01:56:55,600
Speaker 1: think Gardner Minshew is not a fluke and he's not.

2095
01:56:56,080 --> 01:56:58,160
Speaker 1: It's not crazy to say he's gonna be a good quarterback.

2096
01:56:58,280 --> 01:57:01,480
Speaker 1: He showed enough last year. I think he is over

2097
01:57:01,640 --> 01:57:05,000
Speaker 1: an you know, an overlooked guy, no question about it.

2098
01:57:05,560 --> 01:57:08,640
Speaker 1: I don't think they're you know, people expect them to

2099
01:57:08,800 --> 01:57:11,440
Speaker 1: be that good this year. And I think he's a

2100
01:57:11,640 --> 01:57:16,520
Speaker 1: large member, you know, a large reason why. Um does

2101
01:57:16,560 --> 01:57:19,200
Speaker 1: that make him the most underrated player in the AFC South?

2102
01:57:20,560 --> 01:57:22,960
Speaker 1: And he's close to it. So if he's good, if

2103
01:57:23,120 --> 01:57:25,200
Speaker 1: if you think he's good, then yeah, he's the most

2104
01:57:25,280 --> 01:57:27,120
Speaker 1: underrated player in the South. I don't think he's any good.

2105
01:57:29,160 --> 01:57:30,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, he had a pretty good

2106
01:57:31,000 --> 01:57:33,320
Speaker 1: year last year, but I don't think he's going to

2107
01:57:33,400 --> 01:57:35,840
Speaker 1: carry that team to as a starter going forward. I

2108
01:57:35,960 --> 01:57:38,840
Speaker 1: think they'll be looking for a quarterback soon. Yeah, I

2109
01:57:38,880 --> 01:57:42,880
Speaker 1: would say Gardner Minshu is not the Jaguars answer to

2110
01:57:43,080 --> 01:57:45,480
Speaker 1: make it to a super Bowl, and I think you can't.

2111
01:57:46,240 --> 01:57:50,720
Speaker 1: You can't look at one season twelve games as the

2112
01:57:50,800 --> 01:57:56,920
Speaker 1: starter and project or look at how he's going to

2113
01:57:57,000 --> 01:57:59,240
Speaker 1: be for the next five years based off of those

2114
01:57:59,320 --> 01:58:02,200
Speaker 1: twelve games. I think he stills to prove. I think

2115
01:58:02,320 --> 01:58:06,000
Speaker 1: next year, the next two years, if he remains in

2116
01:58:06,120 --> 01:58:08,160
Speaker 1: that job for the next two years, will be very

2117
01:58:08,240 --> 01:58:11,440
Speaker 1: telling for him as a quarterback. But I mean, he's

2118
01:58:11,480 --> 01:58:13,880
Speaker 1: a sixth round pick and it's kind of like he

2119
01:58:14,080 --> 01:58:18,640
Speaker 1: fell into that opportunity. Yeah, if he's a sure fire

2120
01:58:18,760 --> 01:58:22,280
Speaker 1: starter for the rest of his career, Jacksonville is tanking.

2121
01:58:22,480 --> 01:58:24,720
Speaker 1: They're doing it the perfect way. They got a quarterback

2122
01:58:24,760 --> 01:58:26,720
Speaker 1: that earned. He went six and six to start at

2123
01:58:26,720 --> 01:58:30,360
Speaker 1: twenty one touchdown six interceptions. That's pretty good for a

2124
01:58:30,480 --> 01:58:32,840
Speaker 1: rookie sixth round draft pick who didn't think They didn't

2125
01:58:32,840 --> 01:58:35,320
Speaker 1: think he was gonna play at all, and he came

2126
01:58:35,360 --> 01:58:37,720
Speaker 1: in won six games for him, that's enough to give

2127
01:58:37,840 --> 01:58:42,160
Speaker 1: him a chance this year, no question about it. I

2128
01:58:42,320 --> 01:58:45,120
Speaker 1: don't know so if they if they're thinking he's no

2129
01:58:45,240 --> 01:58:47,600
Speaker 1: good and no, he's no good and they're gonna try

2130
01:58:47,640 --> 01:58:52,560
Speaker 1: and get into Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes for the kid from Clemson. Okay,

2131
01:58:53,160 --> 01:58:55,600
Speaker 1: it happened perfect for him because this looks like, yeah,

2132
01:58:55,680 --> 01:58:58,400
Speaker 1: you know what, they kind of owe this guy an opportunity,

2133
01:58:58,440 --> 01:59:01,839
Speaker 1: don't they, After six and six and twenty one tds

2134
01:59:01,880 --> 01:59:04,720
Speaker 1: and six picks. Yeah, they kind of owe him a chance,

2135
01:59:04,760 --> 01:59:07,960
Speaker 1: don't they. Yeah, it'll be very interesting to see how

2136
01:59:08,040 --> 01:59:11,000
Speaker 1: he performs. If if the six and six was as

2137
01:59:11,120 --> 01:59:14,560
Speaker 1: good as it can get and it goes downhill from there,

2138
01:59:14,840 --> 01:59:18,040
Speaker 1: or if he hey, if he can make a name

2139
01:59:18,080 --> 01:59:22,200
Speaker 1: for himself in the NFL. Their backup to Gardner Minshew,

2140
01:59:22,400 --> 01:59:25,360
Speaker 1: I think is also somebody that could be cool to

2141
01:59:25,520 --> 01:59:28,960
Speaker 1: see getting an opportunity by the name of Josh Dobbs.

2142
01:59:29,040 --> 01:59:31,800
Speaker 1: He's a former Tennessee quarterback that I got to cover

2143
01:59:31,920 --> 01:59:35,640
Speaker 1: when I worked at Tennessee. He was Ben roethlis Burgers

2144
01:59:35,720 --> 01:59:39,320
Speaker 1: back up for a while, was the third string quarterback

2145
01:59:39,440 --> 01:59:42,840
Speaker 1: there with the Steelers, and then moved over to the

2146
01:59:43,000 --> 01:59:48,040
Speaker 1: Jags last season. So okay, all right, well that's interesting,

2147
01:59:48,120 --> 01:59:51,800
Speaker 1: But I would say it might be true gardnership an

2148
01:59:52,040 --> 01:59:54,760
Speaker 1: if he's good. He is Gardner Minshew is the most

2149
01:59:54,880 --> 01:59:57,000
Speaker 1: underrated player in the AFC South. I'll say yes, he

2150
01:59:57,200 --> 02:00:00,720
Speaker 1: is as a starting quarterback and yeah, I'll say yes. True.

2151
02:00:01,240 --> 02:00:03,800
Speaker 1: All right, here we go, NFL true false. Number three,

2152
02:00:05,080 --> 02:00:07,800
Speaker 1: This is a big one. The Chiefs will win five

2153
02:00:08,200 --> 02:00:12,160
Speaker 1: plus super Bowls and become the next NFL dynasty. True

2154
02:00:12,200 --> 02:00:15,720
Speaker 1: or false? When are they gonna win these five plus

2155
02:00:15,760 --> 02:00:18,960
Speaker 1: super Bowls in the next five years? What's what's the

2156
02:00:19,120 --> 02:00:20,520
Speaker 1: even if they do it in the next ten years,

2157
02:00:20,560 --> 02:00:23,720
Speaker 1: that's still a dynasty. It is if they win five

2158
02:00:23,800 --> 02:00:26,520
Speaker 1: super Bowls in the next ten years, Yeah, that's a dynasty. Yeah.

2159
02:00:27,400 --> 02:00:29,240
Speaker 1: Do I think they can do it in the next

2160
02:00:29,400 --> 02:00:33,560
Speaker 1: ten years. I mean, Train Patrick signed on for ten years,

2161
02:00:33,600 --> 02:00:35,240
Speaker 1: But I don't know if they can win five in

2162
02:00:35,320 --> 02:00:38,240
Speaker 1: the next ten or five in the next eight. I'm

2163
02:00:38,280 --> 02:00:41,760
Speaker 1: not sure. I'm also not sure because who knows what

2164
02:00:41,840 --> 02:00:43,800
Speaker 1: the cap is going to look like the next few

2165
02:00:43,920 --> 02:00:47,880
Speaker 1: years because of this season, And if the cap is

2166
02:00:48,440 --> 02:00:51,520
Speaker 1: is messed up for more than one year, how does

2167
02:00:51,640 --> 02:00:56,400
Speaker 1: that affect players who need to get paid? Right, That's

2168
02:00:56,440 --> 02:00:59,880
Speaker 1: exactly right. And that's and now you can see why,

2169
02:01:00,800 --> 02:01:03,800
Speaker 1: you can see why everybody's optimistic. They signed all their

2170
02:01:03,880 --> 02:01:05,760
Speaker 1: key guys, they got them back, They got all of

2171
02:01:05,800 --> 02:01:07,720
Speaker 1: them back. I mean, they're next to the Bills. They

2172
02:01:07,760 --> 02:01:10,200
Speaker 1: have more returners and there, and they got them tied

2173
02:01:10,320 --> 02:01:17,200
Speaker 1: up for a while. It just and yeah, if you're

2174
02:01:17,240 --> 02:01:19,160
Speaker 1: gonna pick a team to do that, that's the team

2175
02:01:19,200 --> 02:01:22,560
Speaker 1: you're gonna pick. But I don't think that's possible, particularly

2176
02:01:22,600 --> 02:01:25,960
Speaker 1: with the same cast of characters. And I think their

2177
02:01:26,120 --> 02:01:28,440
Speaker 1: defense took a really big step forward, but I don't

2178
02:01:28,440 --> 02:01:31,640
Speaker 1: know if they can they can move up from where

2179
02:01:31,680 --> 02:01:34,360
Speaker 1: they're at. I think it takes a lot to sustain

2180
02:01:34,440 --> 02:01:39,520
Speaker 1: a defense over five ten years. Yeah, I just don't know.

2181
02:01:39,680 --> 02:01:42,040
Speaker 1: There's two There's only a million things that can go

2182
02:01:42,320 --> 02:01:44,400
Speaker 1: wrong with that. And so I'm gonna say one of

2183
02:01:44,440 --> 02:01:46,640
Speaker 1: them probably will and I'm gonna say that's false. They

2184
02:01:46,720 --> 02:01:49,280
Speaker 1: will not. Now they're not gonna win five. That doesn't

2185
02:01:49,320 --> 02:01:52,880
Speaker 1: mean they can't win four, you know. I will say

2186
02:01:54,040 --> 02:01:57,520
Speaker 1: three maybe, but they're not gonna win five plus super

2187
02:01:57,560 --> 02:02:00,160
Speaker 1: Bowls and become a next NFL dynasty. So I'll say

2188
02:02:00,280 --> 02:02:03,160
Speaker 1: false to that. But they are really good, no question

2189
02:02:03,240 --> 02:02:06,640
Speaker 1: about it. That's just asking too much, that's just asking.

2190
02:02:07,360 --> 02:02:09,760
Speaker 1: Do you think at Maddie, do you think for sure

2191
02:02:09,840 --> 02:02:11,800
Speaker 1: the Chiefs are gonna win another Super Bowl with this

2192
02:02:12,040 --> 02:02:19,320
Speaker 1: cast with Andy Reid? Yeah? Yeah, next year? So you

2193
02:02:19,400 --> 02:02:21,360
Speaker 1: think it's either going to be one in the next

2194
02:02:21,480 --> 02:02:24,480
Speaker 1: what three years, one in the next three years. I

2195
02:02:24,480 --> 02:02:26,920
Speaker 1: would say another one in the next three years. Okay,

2196
02:02:27,280 --> 02:02:30,440
Speaker 1: you're right, you might be right about you. I think

2197
02:02:30,520 --> 02:02:32,760
Speaker 1: they probably could win another Super Bowl like that. They're

2198
02:02:32,760 --> 02:02:37,560
Speaker 1: gonna be good for a while. And yeah, given given

2199
02:02:37,640 --> 02:02:40,040
Speaker 1: all the things that can happen, I don't know, but yeah,

2200
02:02:40,160 --> 02:02:42,440
Speaker 1: that's that's the team you gotta pick for that. That's

2201
02:02:42,480 --> 02:02:44,920
Speaker 1: for sure. You gotta think they're gonna be good, and

2202
02:02:44,960 --> 02:02:46,960
Speaker 1: they're gonna be good for a long time. That was

2203
02:02:47,640 --> 02:02:50,000
Speaker 1: NFL true false, brought to you by Yancy's Fancy New

2204
02:02:50,080 --> 02:02:52,440
Speaker 1: York's artist and chief Steve Tasker Maddie glib Here till

2205
02:02:52,480 --> 02:02:55,200
Speaker 1: three o'clock. What else we got going on? Let's see

2206
02:02:56,000 --> 02:03:00,920
Speaker 1: uh stuff going? Have you checked any thing about I

2207
02:03:00,960 --> 02:03:03,040
Speaker 1: guess you know what? We should go back and I

2208
02:03:03,160 --> 02:03:04,760
Speaker 1: haven't done this and gone back and looked at the

2209
02:03:04,800 --> 02:03:08,440
Speaker 1: Twitter poll. Should we do that? Check it out? I

2210
02:03:08,520 --> 02:03:10,440
Speaker 1: have not looked at the Twitter poll for a long

2211
02:03:10,560 --> 02:03:13,160
Speaker 1: long time. So we had. We asked you our listeners,

2212
02:03:13,480 --> 02:03:21,560
Speaker 1: who you thought to rank the NFL quarterbackback head coaching

2213
02:03:21,880 --> 02:03:28,360
Speaker 1: duos and where they fall. Here we go fifty seven,

2214
02:03:28,480 --> 02:03:30,720
Speaker 1: fifty eight percent of you think that the Buffalo Bills,

2215
02:03:30,720 --> 02:03:34,080
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott and Josh Allen fall in between nine and

2216
02:03:34,280 --> 02:03:37,040
Speaker 1: sixteen bottom half of the top half of the league.

2217
02:03:37,320 --> 02:03:40,080
Speaker 1: That's where sixty percent of the people thought, thirty percent

2218
02:03:40,120 --> 02:03:42,160
Speaker 1: of them thought they were in the top eight, ten

2219
02:03:42,240 --> 02:03:45,240
Speaker 1: percent thought seventeen through twenty four, and only one point

2220
02:03:45,360 --> 02:03:48,800
Speaker 1: seven percent thought they were the bottom third of the

2221
02:03:48,800 --> 02:03:52,600
Speaker 1: bottom quarter of the league. Most of the people is

2222
02:03:52,640 --> 02:03:56,160
Speaker 1: not Bills fans. Right up, just up into the top

2223
02:03:56,240 --> 02:03:58,240
Speaker 1: half of the league is where most people had the

2224
02:03:58,280 --> 02:04:02,240
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills and their back and head coaching duo. It's

2225
02:04:02,280 --> 02:04:05,640
Speaker 1: interesting to think about, and it'll be interesting debate to

2226
02:04:05,720 --> 02:04:09,320
Speaker 1: have when you go down that list. How tough it

2227
02:04:09,600 --> 02:04:13,240
Speaker 1: is to go one to thirty two and rank that

2228
02:04:13,440 --> 02:04:15,640
Speaker 1: middle of the pack there is tough because it's easy

2229
02:04:15,720 --> 02:04:17,400
Speaker 1: to pick out the top and it's easy to pick

2230
02:04:17,440 --> 02:04:21,280
Speaker 1: out the bottom, but the middle not so easy. That's right,

2231
02:04:21,320 --> 02:04:23,000
Speaker 1: all right. We're gonna come back with what do we learned?

2232
02:04:23,080 --> 02:04:25,200
Speaker 1: Right after this break Steve Tasker and Mattie Glab on

2233
02:04:25,240 --> 02:04:28,120
Speaker 1: One Bills Live presented by Kalida Health on Buffalo Bills Radio.

2234
02:04:37,200 --> 02:04:39,240
Speaker 1: What do we learned? Drought to you by Skyworks, the

2235
02:04:39,280 --> 02:04:42,560
Speaker 1: official construction equipment rental company of the Buffalo Bills. We

2236
02:04:42,640 --> 02:04:45,600
Speaker 1: had our boy Brownie on today, Chris brown on ranking Alan,

2237
02:04:46,320 --> 02:04:49,800
Speaker 1: Josh Allen Sean McDermott at number nine in his quarterback

2238
02:04:49,880 --> 02:04:52,800
Speaker 1: coach duo pole. Here's what Brownie had to say. I

2239
02:04:52,920 --> 02:04:56,040
Speaker 1: had him at nine, and the only other combinations I

2240
02:04:56,160 --> 02:04:57,960
Speaker 1: had because I gave you my top three, the only

2241
02:04:58,000 --> 02:05:00,640
Speaker 1: other combos that I had ahead of them were Brady

2242
02:05:00,720 --> 02:05:03,720
Speaker 1: and Arians. Even though that's a new pairing. I mean

2243
02:05:03,800 --> 02:05:07,120
Speaker 1: the achievements are I mean, Arians with half a dozen

2244
02:05:07,200 --> 02:05:09,520
Speaker 1: different quarterbacks in this league, has been prolific. And we

2245
02:05:09,640 --> 02:05:12,360
Speaker 1: know Brady, and then I did Roethlisberger and Tomlin Wilson

2246
02:05:12,400 --> 02:05:16,640
Speaker 1: and Carol. I put Rogers and Lafleur in there, leaning

2247
02:05:16,720 --> 02:05:20,280
Speaker 1: heavily on Rogers obviously the fact that they went thirteen

2248
02:05:20,320 --> 02:05:23,240
Speaker 1: and three last year. And then I put Rivers in

2249
02:05:23,320 --> 02:05:27,680
Speaker 1: Reich together because they have a history, and I still

2250
02:05:27,840 --> 02:05:30,640
Speaker 1: maintain that Frank was instrumental in the Philadelphia Super Bowl

2251
02:05:30,720 --> 02:05:34,720
Speaker 1: run as quarterbacks last year. But then it's Alan and McDermott.

2252
02:05:34,800 --> 02:05:36,920
Speaker 1: So what does it take to get them up the list?

2253
02:05:37,880 --> 02:05:42,840
Speaker 1: It's really can Josh take the next step. That was

2254
02:05:43,200 --> 02:05:46,320
Speaker 1: Chris Brown on the quarterback coach dual poll and debate

2255
02:05:46,400 --> 02:05:48,600
Speaker 1: we had. You can listen to that on later on

2256
02:05:48,800 --> 02:05:52,520
Speaker 1: on the Bills app. Cynthia Freedland on Devin Singletary. She

2257
02:05:52,680 --> 02:05:55,000
Speaker 1: came on and I talked about Singletary being the most

2258
02:05:55,040 --> 02:05:57,640
Speaker 1: improved player for the Bills this season. Here's what Cynthia

2259
02:05:57,720 --> 02:06:00,760
Speaker 1: Freedland from NFL Network said about the young running Frank

2260
02:06:00,800 --> 02:06:03,520
Speaker 1: Gore is now at the Jets in the acach. It's

2261
02:06:03,520 --> 02:06:06,520
Speaker 1: a different team and you have Devin things. They're really

2262
02:06:06,680 --> 02:06:09,680
Speaker 1: figuring to step up into that role. He's gotten that

2263
02:06:09,840 --> 02:06:12,280
Speaker 1: he had veteran leadership. One of the cool things about

2264
02:06:12,280 --> 02:06:15,000
Speaker 1: Frank Gore is because he's taken like something like ten

2265
02:06:15,120 --> 02:06:17,680
Speaker 1: billion snaps. I'm a math person. I think that's probably

2266
02:06:17,720 --> 02:06:23,120
Speaker 1: the right number. But he's really good at showing a

2267
02:06:23,320 --> 02:06:26,880
Speaker 1: younger running back what to do. So ultimately having that

2268
02:06:27,240 --> 02:06:30,160
Speaker 1: nice combination of the play caller that knows how to

2269
02:06:30,320 --> 02:06:33,280
Speaker 1: really fit the system, a stability at the O line,

2270
02:06:33,600 --> 02:06:36,960
Speaker 1: and development in this way that really nurtures someone. Sure,

2271
02:06:37,040 --> 02:06:39,920
Speaker 1: you drafted a running back and okay, Zack Moss is

2272
02:06:39,920 --> 02:06:43,160
Speaker 1: great and it could be fun, but ultimately, who's going

2273
02:06:43,200 --> 02:06:45,880
Speaker 1: to be kind of poised to really step up into

2274
02:06:45,960 --> 02:06:49,560
Speaker 1: that role and drive those yards. It just it really

2275
02:06:49,640 --> 02:06:53,080
Speaker 1: all sets up really well for devastating there. That's what

2276
02:06:53,720 --> 02:06:55,760
Speaker 1: Cynthia Freeland said on What Have We Learned? Brought to

2277
02:06:55,800 --> 02:06:58,520
Speaker 1: you by Skyworks, the official construction equipment rental company of

2278
02:06:58,560 --> 02:07:02,200
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Thanks Cynthia Freedland from coming on and Maddie,

2279
02:07:02,600 --> 02:07:04,880
Speaker 1: when will you get your next test results back? I

2280
02:07:04,920 --> 02:07:07,200
Speaker 1: mean you're gonna be headed into the facility. You're gonna

2281
02:07:07,200 --> 02:07:10,400
Speaker 1: be one of the pioneers getting back into the back

2282
02:07:10,440 --> 02:07:14,560
Speaker 1: into the old country. Oh, I'll be far away from

2283
02:07:14,800 --> 02:07:17,640
Speaker 1: all the real action going on. You can check me out,

2284
02:07:18,560 --> 02:07:22,440
Speaker 1: away from everything. Right. Why are you going back then?

2285
02:07:22,480 --> 02:07:26,160
Speaker 1: Why don't you just stay at home? I mean, I'm

2286
02:07:26,200 --> 02:07:31,120
Speaker 1: sure we'll be at home partially. It'll be interesting. Nobody

2287
02:07:31,240 --> 02:07:34,320
Speaker 1: knows anything. I just know that camp is actually going

2288
02:07:34,440 --> 02:07:37,920
Speaker 1: to happen. So that's positive. And the rest is probably

2289
02:07:38,040 --> 02:07:42,400
Speaker 1: TVD right, everything's TBD right now, no question about it.

2290
02:07:43,280 --> 02:07:45,879
Speaker 1: Good show today, We've got to tomorrow coming on. Probably

2291
02:07:47,040 --> 02:07:49,160
Speaker 1: Peter King's coming on. He was gonna be on today.

2292
02:07:49,240 --> 02:07:51,120
Speaker 1: He had to push it back. He had a scheduling issue.

2293
02:07:51,120 --> 02:07:53,240
Speaker 1: Maybe later in the week. We're gonna get Tom pallasaro on.

2294
02:07:53,320 --> 02:07:55,520
Speaker 1: We're thinking about him for Thursday. Give us a call

2295
02:07:55,760 --> 02:07:57,720
Speaker 1: if you want tomorrow. We're gonna be here from noon

2296

2297
02:08:02,600 --> 02:08:05,840
Speaker 1: one last thing. If you get tested, are you still

2298
02:08:05,880 --> 02:08:08,000
Speaker 1: coming on this show? If you go get negative? No?

2299
02:08:08,480 --> 02:08:10,560
Speaker 1: What am I saying? If you have a positive test,

2300
02:08:10,600 --> 02:08:13,800
Speaker 1: are you going to come on the show with us tomorrow? Yeah,

2301

2302
