1
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: This One Bill's Live presented by Callida Health.

2
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 2: All Right, welcome to a Wednesday edition of One Bill's Live.

3
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 2: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you, and game install will

4
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 2: be happening tomorrow. There is just a a min what

5
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 2: is it a rest day today and then full practice tomorrow.

6
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 2: As playing on Monday night, the coaching staff decided to uh,

7
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 2: kind of change the schedule around a wee bit. I

8
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 2: think the players will probably be doing stuff of the

9
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,119
Speaker 2: walk through variety today in terms of what's going on.

10
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 2: They're conducting a walk through practice today which is closed

11
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 2: to the media, and then some players will talk after practice.

12
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 2: But then full scale practice will be tomorrow, Friday, Saturday,

13
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 2: and obviously the game on Sunday, so they pushed it

14
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: back presumably after you know, playing Monday night, extra day

15
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 2: of rest, that kind of thing, rest the bodies, but

16
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 2: still go through the practice paces in a walk through fashion.

17
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 2: So that's the approach of the Bills today. Head coach

18
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:47,199
Speaker 2: Sean McDermott is going to be addressing the media, if

19
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 2: not yet, very very soon. We'll try to bring that

20
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 2: to you if we can. Once he gets rolling. Get

21
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 2: the updates on just about everything under the sun. Obviously,

22
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 2: he spoke to the media yesterday and addressed the firing

23
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 2: of offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey, and the general consensus Steve

24
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 2: was that he felt the offense needed a dose of

25
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 2: energy and needed to regain its confidence, and clearly he

26
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 2: did not think that was going to happen under Ken

27
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 2: Dorsey going forward.

28
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:27,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think too that general consensus is, although

29
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: note not everybody agrees with it. I'm kind of in

30
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: the school of thought that there's not that much wrong

31
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: with it, because they've got really good players in the

32
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: room and there's enough under the hood to score thirty

33
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,959
Speaker 1: five forty eight points a game if they get it right.

34
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: I think there was a sense that the offense isn't

35
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: diverse enough or creative enough. At a certain time you

36
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: only needed like a handful of plays a game to

37
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: do it. And now, and of course all this stuff

38
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: comes out after the fact, because so you know, I

39
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: don't like, okay, where was it before? But you get

40
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: these other everybody dredging up what has been said about

41
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: it in the past by the opponents, and it comes

42
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: across as being predictable. And once you're predictable, you're dead

43
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: in the water. And that does kind of a lot

44
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: go a long way towards explaining why it seems like

45
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: it's a really tough slog playing offense for the Bills.

46
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: You got all these great players and they're out there

47
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: and it's just you know, you have to make Josh

48
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: Is having to make incredible throws. You're having guys making

49
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: incredible individual efforts to get any headway where you know,

50
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: and it's obvious now it makes sense because the defenses

51
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: kind of have a handle on what the Bills are

52
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: trying to do in any given moment, and they're on

53
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: top of it. When a defense anticipates what you're gonna do,

54
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: everything gets really hard. And that's what it looks like.

55
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 1: So we'll see if all that true proves to be true.

56
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 2: Head Coachean McDermott is addressing the media at this time.

57
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 2: Let's go to the press conference.

58
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 3: Now obvious, but between Joe and Josh Is it's something

59
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 3: you obviously had to consider it making this movement. And

60
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 3: how receptive is Josh Baddy to this geam?

61
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:19,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's been receptive, And you know that was that

62
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 4: that connection is important, right, that they that they are connected,

63
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 4: and then in particular now this new role Uh, that

64
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 4: Joe is in that they're as connected as ever because

65
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 4: now Joe is is the play caller and and that's

66
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 4: an important relationship and and something that when you're on

67
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 4: the same page with with total clarity and understanding of uh,

68
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 4: what each other wants, what you're trying to get out

69
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 4: of just whether it's a game plan or one play,

70
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 4: that's that's huge for that alignment, huge for for production.

71
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 2: John, would you say that previously your your pre stamped.

72
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 5: Stuff on offense maybe wasn't as diversified as it could

73
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 5: have been. Maybe you're creating the less problem for a

74
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 5: deep that's because you didn't.

75
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 6: Do more pre staff Uh.

76
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 4: I mean I wouldn't disagree with you. I think that

77
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 4: there's everything in moderation, right. Sometimes you can do too

78
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 4: much to where to where you just want to try

79
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 4: and run one play and you're and you're wearing your

80
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 4: players out or doing too much behind a lot of scrimmage,

81
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 4: pre snunt motion, what have you shifting, But it's everything

82
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 4: in moderation. If you get too static, then it becomes

83
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 4: a little bit easier to defend. And sometimes you know,

84
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 4: as an offense, the more you do it can get

85
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 4: in the way but it's a there's a sweet spot

86
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 4: in there too as well as being too static, and

87
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 4: then you allow the defense to do more. A good coach,

88
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 4: an older coach who's now retired, once told me, from

89
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 4: a defensive standpoint, the more they do, the less we

90
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 4: can do.

91
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 7: And so I think that applies in this case.

92
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 8: Think part of that is if you're trying in general

93
00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 8: to go up tempon no all versus slow now. But

94
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 8: if you're going off type put a model, there's limits.

95
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 8: You're going to have a smaller pack, right I.

96
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 4: Mean it's yeah, well sometimes it limits the amount of

97
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 4: stuff you can do pre snap. So it's you know,

98
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 4: it's it's everything in moderation, right, Sean.

99
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 2: You've gone from a position coach to to a coordinator.

100
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 8: Is that is the biggest challenge going from kind of

101
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 8: micro to macro?

102
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,679
Speaker 1: You know how how is that like how to bring

103
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 1: more time you.

104
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 7: See things on?

105
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 9: Yeah?

106
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 4: Well, I mean I just I feel strongly about this.

107
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 4: That coordinator position, just like the head coach position, it's

108
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 4: it's it's a leadership position. You better have the ex's

109
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 4: and o's because the job really boils down to it's

110
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 4: a leadership position, and that's where I mentioned about it

111
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 4: being in the margins, and and all the intangibles that

112
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 4: go with developing a culture are important, right, And it

113
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 4: starts with it starts with with with the leadership aspect

114
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 4: of the job.

115
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 2: How much change are you looking for, Jordan ring schematically

116
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 2: to the offense, especially understanding this point the season.

117
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 10: How if you are limited, maybe the time.

118
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: Is for major Yeah.

119
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 4: I don't want to get in John, I respect your question,

120
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 4: but obviously that's a strategy thing at this point. So

121
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 4: I would just tell you overall, his job is to

122
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 4: put the players in a position just like my job is.

123
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 8: How have you seen the reaction from players so far?

124
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, they've you know, they've taken it and stride. I

125
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 4: mean obviously you know, said at what had to be

126
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 4: or what would become of it, and became of it.

127
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 4: And but looking forward to a new beginning here and

128
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 4: an opportunity to to you know, gain more production and

129
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 4: on a more consistent basis.

130
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 11: Really Sean Sean tears back to when you hired Joe.

131
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 1: What appeal to you to help him to hire him

132
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: in the first place.

133
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 10: A year ago?

134
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I'd never met Joe, but just heard

135
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 4: good things about him.

136
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 1: Right.

137
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 4: He obviously had had set in different seats along the way,

138
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 4: position coach, different been around, you know, a environment from

139
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 4: a standpoint of a good head coach and Sean Payton

140
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 4: from an offensive standpoint. Back then he was in a

141
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 4: an assistant to an assistant at times, and then in

142
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 4: the assistant and then he moved to on the LSU

143
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 4: we became the coordinator and and so you know that

144
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 4: that resume, that experience, if you're if you're paying attention,

145
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 4: can only benefit someone. And when you talk about in

146
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 4: some of the traits of everyone talked about how smart

147
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 4: he was now and how hard he worked, and I

148
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 4: think those two combined can be dangerous in professional sports.

149
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 10: I've been a decision made of where he'll be.

150
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 7: During the game and no, not that far land.

151
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 12: I'm curious, is there what is the benefit from your

152
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 12: perspective what you've seen of calling plays and being down

153
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,199
Speaker 12: on the field, Like, what what do you get from

154
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 12: the You know, I know you have to be down

155
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 12: as you're the head coach, but in your experience, like,

156
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 12: what are the benefits of being on the field.

157
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 4: Versus well, yeah, I mean that's a good question. I've

158
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 4: done both and and I can tell you what I

159
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 4: came up around was on the field. The coordinator Jim

160
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 4: Johnson I worked with and for was was down on

161
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 4: the field, and and there's a huge leadership.

162
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 7: Aspect to doing it from from down there.

163
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 4: I started that way as a coordinator, and then I

164
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 4: went upstairs. And at first I was like, oh, it's

165
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 4: it's it's it's not the same vibe, right, But if

166
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 4: you have people lieutenants down there that you can trust

167
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 4: to get the pulse of the players, to you know,

168
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 4: communicate up to you to me, upstairs is the best

169
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 4: way to see everything. It's like landing in a plane,

170
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 4: you know, coming in and you can see things that

171
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 4: you didn't think you could see before, and you can

172
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 4: see them clearly. And and so that's that's a huge advantage.

173
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 5: Energy and confidence or I mean, we all have our

174
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 5: belief and or what those two things mean. But how

175
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,559
Speaker 5: do you go about building energy and confidence when, as

176
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 5: what happened on Monday night, you have the confidence, you

177
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 5: have the energy, and then all of a sudden there's

178
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 5: a turnover and then another turnover.

179
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: How do you, I.

180
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 9: Guess, go beyond maintain go into maintaining that energy and

181
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 9: confidence of those.

182
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 4: Things happen, right, and that they do affect momentum, which

183
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 4: affects confidence. We're all human, right, so there is a

184
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 4: mental aspect of that, the mental toughness of a in

185
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 4: this case a unit, right, and then just the overall hey,

186
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 4: you know, those are things you can't do to win games.

187
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 4: But so that does that has gotten in the way,

188
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 4: But that goes back to me to to process and

189
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 4: making sure we're you know, we're emphasizing everything we need

190
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 4: to emphasize, and then it's gonna happen. Mistakes are going

191
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:29,959
Speaker 4: to happen, right, and you're gonna have close games and

192
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 4: good plays and bad plays. And at the end of

193
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 4: the day, it's about the mental toughness, the grit, the

194
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 4: resiliency of the unit to continue through all of that.

195
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 2: S what is the what has been the keyship brand

196
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 2: Oliver to be more consistent in that.

197
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 7: Times down there?

198
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think going you know, the word process, I

199
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 4: already mentioned that. I think that's huge, right, you know,

200
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 4: And then I would say, sometimes guys get paid and

201
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 4: they go the other way and it's kind of the relaxation,

202
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 4: the syndrome that sets in, and I know that sometimes

203
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 4: what makes what makes you know, irritated with with certain situations.

204
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 7: But in this case, I think the contract.

205
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 4: Has helped him and you can ask him why. But

206
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 4: he his process is as good as it's been, So

207
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 4: his preparation is his detailed as it's been, and I

208
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,959
Speaker 4: think that's important and you're seeing the result. And I

209
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 4: would say for some of those other guys up front

210
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 4: as well that may not have been have not have

211
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 4: performed up to the level what they are this year,

212
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 4: those guys have all improved on their preparation.

213
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 3: Sean Hoek, you would, you know, get in the strategy

214
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 3: as he would have.

215
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 10: Louse to earlier.

216
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 6: But I mean you're very familiar with.

217
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,719
Speaker 3: This guests defense, what it's capable of the trouble and

218
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 3: can give you guys and other teams to make a

219
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 3: change like this going into a game like this. How

220
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 3: much of a challenge is that against this particular defense,

221
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 3: and maybe if there's some opportunity there too with the unknown.

222
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not as you know, I acknowledge that they're

223
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 4: a really good defense, you know, probably the most talented

224
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 4: defense in the league, and they do a great job

225
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 4: from a coaching end as well.

226
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 7: And so there are a tough defense or tough challenge.

227
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 4: I think more than anything, our our focus needs to

228
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 4: be on us and and UH in particular on offense,

229
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 4: but overall as a team as well, and getting us

230
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 4: right right and getting us back to playing confident, playing

231
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 4: playing with energy, building a like I said on our

232
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 4: offensive side, building a little bit of a culture here,

233
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 4: of a subculture of the bigger of the bigger culture

234
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 4: of of the team. And and I think you saw

235
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 4: some of that on on on Monday night with hey,

236
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 4: we'd had some turnovers. Defense takes the field and and

237
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 4: they go to work right, and they go to work

238
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 4: with with grit and toughness and resiliency and and they're

239
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 4: just staying after and so that that to me is

240
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 4: infectious and that that is important as well as the

241
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 4: exits and the o's all right.

242
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 2: That's head coach Sean McDermott addressing the media before their

243
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 2: walk through session today with the players they'll be back

244
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 2: to regular practice on Thursday. Part of the press conference.

245
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 2: Who did not hear was the injury report, wide receiver

246
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 2: Trent Sherfield, who left last week's game with an ankle problem,

247
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 2: and defensive tackle Jordan Phillips notcticing today limited in practice today.

248
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 2: Even though it's a walkthrough, you have to give a

249
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 2: designation as if it was a full practice. Jordan Poyer,

250
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 2: Micah Hyde, Christian Benford, Dorian Williams, and Cam Lewis all

251
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 2: will be limited. So once again the secondary dinged up

252
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 2: to no small degree. And then the other bit of

253
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 2: news that came from coach McDermott before we joined the

254
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 2: press conference, basically, offensive assistant Mike Shula will be around

255
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 2: the quarterbacks a little bit more with Joe Brady moving

256
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 2: up to the offensive coordinator position. He did not say

257
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 2: definitively that senior offensive assistant Mike Shula is now the

258
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 2: quarterbacks coach, but he will be filling some of the

259
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 2: void left by Brady running the entire offensive unit now.

260
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 2: So you're kind of brought up to speed on where

261
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 2: things stand in terms of people filling roles going forward

262
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 2: on the offensive side of the ball. And I don't

263
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 2: think a lot of Sean's message today was all that

264
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 2: different from what it was yesterday when he addressed the firing.

265
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 2: He's clearly looking for to reinvigorate an offense that has

266
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 2: looked rather stale and troubled with their execution, their production

267
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 2: and he's hoping that this reinvigorates the unit to get

268
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 2: back to the standard that we've all become accustomed to

269
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 2: with its point production and its effectiveness.

270
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 1: We've seen this before where and for whatever reason, whether

271
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: it whether the offensive coordinator is the answer or not.

272
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: We saw this at the second half of last year

273
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: when it started to go downhill, and then of course

274
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: with you know, then the DeMar Hamlin thing happened, and

275
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: you know, there's some injuries and stuff like that, so

276
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 1: he didn't There was a lot of reasons why the

277
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 1: team might have flattened out offensively last year, although they

278
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: ended the year scoring number two in the league and

279
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: all that stuff at the end of the regular season.

280
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 1: This season, they started out first four weeks of the season,

281
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 1: they played really well after opening game. After this they

282
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 1: played this jet defense, they played extremely well. And then

283
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, with most of the injuries

284
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: being on the defensive side of the ledger, the Bills

285
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: have struggled to kind of get it on track. They

286
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 1: just seems like, you know, the the defenses are really

287
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: getting the better of them, and so at a point

288
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: where you're five and five on the season, you've got

289
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 1: a really tough schedule coming up, it's time to shake

290
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 1: it up. You've got this is this is an attempt

291
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 1: to save this season, no question about it. And you

292
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: feel like the players in the room are good enough

293
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 1: at every position group to play way better than they

294
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 1: have shown offensively. Now, I get it, they're playing against

295
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: a tough schedule and it's it's very difficult defenses. But

296
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: this is this is a nod towards it's us, not them.

297
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 2: Correct and to me, and I've said this for a

298
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 2: couple of weeks now, it's not just the offense. Special

299
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 2: teams has had a hand in this as well. Monday Night,

300
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 2: they decide to kick to the best return man in

301
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 2: the league both in kickoff return and punt return guys

302
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: averaging over twenty yards of punt return. They punt to

303
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 2: him and he returns two for forty four yards total,

304
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 2: so he exceeds his season average against the Bills by

305
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 2: two yards. He's averaging twenty point three return coming into

306
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 2: the game. He gets twenty two on average in the

307
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 2: game against Buffalo and also as a kick return for

308
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 2: thirty one yards. He was instrumental in helping them flip

309
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 2: the field and give short fields to their offense, and

310
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 2: he's named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week as

311
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 2: a result. Like you've been shaky on special teams for

312
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 2: whatever reason. I just it didn't make sense to me

313
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 2: to kick to him the entire game. I I just

314
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 2: didn't get it.

315
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree, it's I mean, I'm I I

316
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: remember what it's like to go against the really good

317
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 1: guys and they're really good and they're back there catching

318
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 1: kicks in the National Football League. It's not just because

319
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,199
Speaker 1: they have good hands and they're back there. A guy like,

320
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 1: he's back there because he's hard to catch. He's like,

321
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 1: you know, he's like a frightened squirrel. You can't hm

322
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 1: him in and don't just don't give him a chance,

323
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:35,479
Speaker 1: you know.

324
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 2: And that's directional.

325
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: Punting. The ball is a is a is not an

326
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 1: exact Zach science, but man, oh man kickoffs, there's really

327
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,199
Speaker 1: no reason not to have Bass kick that thing out

328
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 1: of the out of the.

329
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 2: And they did on a few occasions. But the punk,

330
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 2: I guess what surprised me.

331
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 5: Yeah.

332
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. Conditions do say something about how you can kick

333
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 1: and where it's going to go and all that, But

334
00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 1: you want to keep it away from him as much

335
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: as you can. Bills have really struggled with field position

336
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 1: this year. It's been a chronic problem, and their offense

337
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:08,919
Speaker 1: has had, you know, its share of success, but rarely

338
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: have they gotten it it turned over to them on

339
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: the other side of the.

340
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 2: Fifty well, and that's you know, the complimentary football that

341
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 2: Sean McDermott talks about, and I know Bills fans are

342
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 2: tired of hearing it. But when you have an offense

343
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 2: that's struggling, and then you have a special teams unit

344
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 2: that gives them the worst average field position over the

345
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 2: last six weeks in the league, that's a fact. You

346
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 2: make it doubly hard for them to put points on

347
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 2: the board. And now your defense is playing from behind.

348
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 2: I mean the Bills didn't. The Bills had a lead

349
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 2: for about a minute and a half of that game

350
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,639
Speaker 2: on Monday Night. They didn't take the lead until one

351
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 2: fifty five left on the clock. They trailed the entire

352
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 2: game virtually except when it was zero zero and when

353
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 2: it was tied at fifteen for a stretch. It's hard

354
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 2: to play from behind when you have an injury, real defense,

355
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 2: a special teams unit that can't flip the field for you.

356
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 2: And an offer that's struggling to score points. It's a

357
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 2: recipe for disaster.

358
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: Well, it's certainly a grind.

359
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 2: And they're still only losing by a score.

360
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 1: It's hard to make big plays when the other team's

361
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 1: not under duress in the NFL, because they're getting paid too.

362
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,919
Speaker 1: That's how you win. You get them in third and

363
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 1: long where they're desperate to get a first down and

364
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: they're going to put the ball at risk when they're behind.

365
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: When they got to do that even on first and

366
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 1: second down, when they put the ball at risk, when

367
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: they can hand it off and stay ahead of the

368
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: chains and get a grind a first down instead of

369
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: trying to get the long pass for a first down,

370
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: you know, you never get a chance to make a

371
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 1: big play. And certainly unless you can get them off

372
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 1: the field on third down. The time of possession once

373
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 1: again this last Monday night was way out of whack.

374
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 1: That's kind of change. That's that's a real problem. Field

375
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,439
Speaker 1: position and time of possession is a real problem. And

376
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: I know too that those are symptoms of underlying issues.

377
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 1: But man oh Man, I think this is a nod

378
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 1: to that. I think there's a lot of things they

379
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: can do inside this building that give themselves a better

380
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 1: chance to be in a better position to win, and

381
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,360
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens offensively if that's the case. Now defensively,

382
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: injuries are the issue. I mean, you can almost you

383
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 1: can see a bar graph and see when the injury

384
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: started to happen how the production went.

385
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,880
Speaker 2: But all that being said, they were the best unit

386
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 2: on the field for the Bills on Monday Night by far.

387
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 2: It wasn't even a contest. That's got to change. Also,

388
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 2: your injury riddle. Defense can't be your best unit on

389
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 2: the field on game day, cannot I mean, it's great

390
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 2: if they play well, but to put in on them,

391
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 2: to put the burden on them and try to win

392
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 2: football games is flat out unrealistic, even against a team

393
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 2: that is struggling mightily on offense like the Jets with

394
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 2: Zach Wilson at quarterback. So the Bills are tied for

395
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 2: second in the league in most giveaways. The only team

396
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 2: with more is Cleveland with nineteen, Buffalo as eighteen, along

397
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 2: with Las Vegas and Chicago, who are at the bottom

398
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 2: of the league at minus seven and minus nine. In

399
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:09,640
Speaker 2: turnover differential, the Bills are a minus three. It makes

400
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 2: it harder. You make the whole thing harder that way.

401
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 2: Our question though for you and topic of discussion is

402
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 2: as follows. Joe Brady is your new offensive coordinator going forward.

403
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 2: How difficult a task will it be for Brady to

404
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 2: turn around this Bill's offense? Eight oh three, five point

405
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 2: fifty one eight eight eight five point fifty two, five

406
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 2: fifty the numbers to get on board. We do have

407
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 2: open lines for you, and we're wide open today for

408
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 2: phone calls. So if you want to weigh in on

409
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 2: this and give us your assessment as to how tough

410
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 2: a task it's going to be for Joe Brady to

411
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 2: turn this offense around, you let us know and we'll

412
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:50,159
Speaker 2: lead off on the phones today with Alex, who is

413
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 2: out in Arizona. What do you got for us? Alex

414
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 2: here on One Bill's Live.

415
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 13: Hey, Steve, Hey, Chris. I hope you guys are doing well.

416
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 13: Love your show. Felt like I really needed to call

417
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 13: in after his last game. I was thinking about it

418
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,639
Speaker 13: with my dad and we were I know when Brian Dable,

419
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 13: when he first kind of became OC, he was kind

420
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 13: of down on the field with the guys before he

421
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 13: later moved up into the box and correct me if

422
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 13: I'm wrong on that, But I believe that's how he started,

423
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 13: and I think Ken Dorthy was just kind of always

424
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:22,959
Speaker 13: up in the box. So I'm just kind of curious

425
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 13: how much of an effect that has on maybe like

426
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:30,440
Speaker 13: the chemistry between coordinator and the team when he's always

427
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 13: sitting up in the box versus getting to know him

428
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 13: down on the field, And how you think Joe Brady's

429
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:40,120
Speaker 13: gonna approach that aspect of the game. That's all I had.

430
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks, Alex, A good question.

431
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 2: It's kind of hard to say.

432
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 14: We did.

433
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 2: Hear. Coach mcdermoy get asked about it at his press

434
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 2: conference just moments ago that we carried on the air

435
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 2: here Live, and he essentially said, there is something to

436
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 2: be said for having that direct line of communication down

437
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 2: on the sideline and leading your group by physically being there,

438
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 2: he said, but it's unquestionably the best way to view

439
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 2: the game is upstairs where you can literally see everything. Now,

440
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 2: if you have coaches that you can trust that can

441
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,479
Speaker 2: be your eyes upstairs, you can do that and have

442
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 2: somebody upstairs for you to kind of survey the field,

443
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 2: chart what that defense is doing against your certain play

444
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 2: calls and then compare them between series. So you say, Okay,

445
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 2: they're gonna play us that way on that Well, I'm

446
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 2: gonna run that play again later and we're going to

447
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 2: do this against that defense and try to get them

448
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,120
Speaker 2: to change or we can get them here on this.

449
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 2: You need somebody upstairs that knows what they're looking at

450
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,879
Speaker 2: and can chart and plan accordingly going forward and alert

451
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 2: you to things. So while you're down on the field

452
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 2: talking to your players, they're being your basically your your

453
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 2: what's the thing I'm looking for? Your your intelligence, You're intelligent.

454
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 2: They're your CIA in it up there.

455
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, well here's the thing to you. I said this

456
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 1: a little earlier too, when people were looking for a

457
00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 1: way to spark the offense of bringing maybe Ken Dorsey

458
00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: to out on the field that kind of thing. Day

459
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:07,199
Speaker 1: Ball was down on the field, but that's when he

460
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 1: was working with Josh Allen as the first and second

461
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,439
Speaker 1: as a rooklayer. As a rookie, it was until Josh

462
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 1: got to the point where he was developed enough to

463
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 1: communicate in a level that made it possible for Daball

464
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 1: to go upstairs. As soon as it was possible, Dabell

465
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: moved upstairs. Almost every offensive play caller in the league

466
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: is upstairs because of what Brownie said. They can see

467
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:34,200
Speaker 1: it and they it helps them have information that they

468
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 1: need to call plays in the future, and you just

469
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 1: don't get that when you're down on the field. Now,

470
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean it's the only way to do it,

471
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 1: but it says something that almost every play caller in

472
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,880
Speaker 1: the league, except like Andy Reid head coaches who call

473
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: the plays, those guys are on the sidelines obviously. But

474
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 1: I think it had to do when when Daboll was

475
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 1: on the sidelines. It had to do with where Josh

476
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 1: was in his development, and I think that's why it is.

477
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: He needed to be in his ear right. He needed

478
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: to say down with him between series, look him in

479
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: the eye, and have specific things on the surface that

480
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 1: he could say, Hey, hear this, this and this. That

481
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 1: changes as the quarterback gets more proficient.

482
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 2: Now, all that being said, when Joe Brady and for

483
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,880
Speaker 2: what it's worth, take this for what it's worth. When

484
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,880
Speaker 2: Joe Brady was in Carolina and he was hired as

485
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 2: the offensive coordinator, he started upstairs, and then as he

486
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,159
Speaker 2: moved through his tenure, he eventually went down to the field.

487
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 2: And he basically said he felt its streamline communication and

488
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 2: he was able to feel the vibe of the players

489
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 2: on the sideline better. And I would be inclined, based

490
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,199
Speaker 2: on that history and what Sean McDermott said and the

491
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 2: need for energy and confidence that he needs an offensive

492
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 2: coordinator that's going to lead the group by being present.

493
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 2: So we don't know what Joe Brady's going to do,

494
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 2: but based on Brady's history and based on what shaw

495
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 2: nam Mareturmott just said in his press conference, I would

496
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 2: be inclined to think he's going to be on the sidelines.

497
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 2: That's my that's the field. That's the sense I'm getting.

498
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,639
Speaker 1: And I'll say this too. It may start out that

499
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 1: way and not end that way. Like you know, if the.

500
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 2: Carolina right, they get acclimated, he.

501
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: May say, Okay, you know what we're doing it now,

502
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go upstairs. So because I want to see

503
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 1: what the secondary's doing from upstairs, Yes, and I wouldn't.

504
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: It wouldn't bother me either. Do what you gotta do, right.

505
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 2: Uh, whatever's going to make it look better. Please.

506
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 1: The only thing you got to know is when these

507
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 1: guys study the game, they look at film that is

508
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,440
Speaker 1: filmed virtually from where they're sitting in the box. It's

509
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: from a sideline view. They can see everything in front

510
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,400
Speaker 1: of on the film, and then they show it from

511
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 1: the end zone as well, which helps spacing and that

512
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: kind of thing. But they study the game for hours

513
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: and hours and hours and hours, and they break down

514
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: defenses and offenses from hours and hours watching tape exactly

515
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: like it looks from the booth. That's why it helps

516
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: them because when they see it, they like they can

517
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 1: pick stuff up just lightning fast because they've seen film

518
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,400
Speaker 1: a thousand times. They think, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay,

519
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 1: I got it. It's like watching the end of a movie.

520
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: You know it. You've seen it a thousand times. So

521
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 1: that's why they it's easy for these coaches in the

522
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,360
Speaker 1: environment that they work in every day to be upstairs

523
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 1: when they see the stuff on the field. It's the

524
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 1: game they watch and study and break apart. Now when

525
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: they get down now when push comes to shove, and

526
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 1: they got to start getting the little bodies on the

527
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 1: field that they're watching from the booth to do the

528
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,640
Speaker 1: stuff they want. Sometimes it helps to go down there

529
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 1: and look the kid in the eye and say hey,

530
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: don't don't do this, do this, you know, look this way,

531
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: and then go back and throw it the other way.

532
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,159
Speaker 1: I trust me it's going to be there. Those kind

533
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 1: of conversations are more effective and the communication is better

534
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 1: when you're just sitting there next to each other on

535
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:58,639
Speaker 1: the bench. It's hard, it's a hard balance. But the

536
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 1: question then two, you got a quarterback that sees the

537
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 1: game the same way you do from upstairs. If he

538
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: was upstairs, he'd know it. So how do you communicate that.

539
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,399
Speaker 1: It's a it's a problem, it's a it's a challenge,

540
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 1: and you've The good part is too, these coaching staff's

541
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 1: got like fifty five guys on them, So there are

542
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 1: guys up in that booth who also spend their days

543
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 1: watching that film and they can see what the coordinator

544
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 1: would see. Is there somebody on the coaching staff that

545
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,679
Speaker 1: Joe Brady trusts as much he trusts his own eyes

546
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 1: where he can say, hey, you go up there, bro, bro,

547
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: go up there, watch that second? Are you tell me

548
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,959
Speaker 1: if you see him doing this stuff and tell me

549
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: so I can get it and tell Josh.

550
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 2: But taking it a step further too, we've heard coach

551
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 2: McDermott address Josh's confidence level, which seems to be a

552
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 2: little fractured right now based on how things have been going,

553
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 2: the turnovers he's been committing, etcetera, etcetera. To me, that's

554
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 2: also another reason to have Brady down there to pat

555
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 2: him on the back, you know, smack him on the behind,

556
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,560
Speaker 2: you know, just be in his ear and encouraging him,

557
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 2: not from a telephone upstairs, but being right next to him,

558
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 2: looking him in the eye and telling him, hey, man,

559
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 2: you're the dude, go do it. You know it sounds trivial,

560
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 2: but let's not make him Let's not make no mistake

561
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,479
Speaker 2: about this. This is a crisis situation. You made a

562
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 2: major move on your coaching staff because you felt something

563
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 2: big had to get fixed now. So if that's gonna

564
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:34,479
Speaker 2: make this much of a difference, you do it right.

565
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 2: Because that guy is the most important person on the

566
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 2: field for you. You got to get him right and fast.

567
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 2: We have to take a break here, but when we

568
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,120

00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 14: Hey Brownie, Hey Chris, good afternoon, and I love the show.

584
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:43,719
Speaker 2: Thanks.

585
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 14: I have a comment about Unfortunately we're still talking about this.

586
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 14: The twelve man on the Field prom I played football.

587
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 14: I've been on the punt and field goal defense teams

588
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 14: I know, and Sean McDermott said they practiced it during

589
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 14: the week before Monday Night's game, and so the eleven

590
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 14: guys that practiced it during the week should know who

591
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 14: should be out there when the Broncos rushed off and

592
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 14: those defense team rushed on. How does the twelfth guy

593
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 14: who's now on the field bent over in his three

594
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 14: point stance getting ready to rush the kick. How is

595
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 14: he not telling himself, wait a minute, I'm not supposed

596
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 14: to be out here. How does a player stand in

597
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 14: the field rush that kick knowing that he did not

598
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 14: practice that the whole week before the game, and that

599
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 14: he's not on that team, and yet he stays out

600
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 14: there all.

601
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 1: Right, Steve, I mean, let me just tell you, Steve, Listen,

602
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 1: there are three different sets of eleven guys who go

603
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: on feudal field goal defense in any given situation. So

604
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 1: it's not just like it's not I'm sorry, it's not

605
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 1: Pop Warner football. Well, yeah, eleven guys. There's like three

606
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: different calls, four different calls. There's different personnel sets for

607
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: field goal defense any given situation. And they got to

608
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: the problem was they didn't communicate it to all those guys.

609
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 1: So in some situations, eleven guys are out there. In

610
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: another situation, a different eleven guys are out there. In

611
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 1: another situation, a different eleven guys are out there. Plus

612
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 1: you have to account for injuries too, right, and and

613
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,479
Speaker 1: somebody might have gone down as an injury and then

614
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: had a substitute and and been available for field goal defense,

615
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:33,719
Speaker 1: but not for regular down and distance. It's that simple.

616
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 1: It's complicated. It's that's why you get into the situations

617
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 1: like this. It's not just the same eleven guys every

618
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 1: single solitary time they kick a field goal that the

619
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: same eleven guys are out there. Now, I know it sounds,

620
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: you know, like, how can that be? Why why would

621
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 1: you even do that? Well, the problem is you got

622
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: other guys on the other side of the ball, get

623
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 1: paid to and they come out and all of a sudden,

624
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:05,080
Speaker 1: you've got you know, Joe Schmoe Garden Chase, you know,

625
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase on a field goal. That's what happens, and

626
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: you give up a touchdown instead of three points or you,

627
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 1: you know whatever. You gotta have different personnel combinations. It's

628
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: because teams will take every advantage and they'll get one.

629
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: If they see you've got ten defensive linemen on the field,

630
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: they'll put hell. They'll call everybody eligible and send out

631
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 1: dbs and wide receivers across the line of scrimmage and

632
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: then just run a rugby playing and you can't catch them.

633
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 1: They're in the end zone. What are you gonna do

634
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: if they line up to take an eighty five yard

635
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: field goal. I'm exaggerating to make a point. You know

636
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 1: they're not gonna kick it. It's a fake. What are

637
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: you gonna do? You're gonna put a different eleven guys

638
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 1: out there. That kind of stuff happens when you get tells,

639
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 1: you put different players on the field. That's why when

640
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 1: they talk about communication, it's not coach speak, it's real.

641
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 1: You gotta get every single one of the eleven guys

642
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 1: who's supposed to be out there, and every single one

643
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: of the eleven guys who was out there the call,

644
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 1: so they know who's supposed to be on and who's

645
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,919
Speaker 1: supposed to be off. And there's there's eighty two there's

646
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: seventy two thousand people in the stadium screaming. There's one

647
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,800
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty guys on your sideline screaming. There's eleven

648
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 1: guys on the field that are screaming, and there's eleven

649
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 1: guys on their side of the field that are screaming

650
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 1: along with their sidelines. And you got to get that

651
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: over the top of that den and that noise in

652
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,839
Speaker 1: that commotion, the right call. Not everybody got it. It's

653
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 1: that simple.

654
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 2: Let's go back to the phones and to Mike and Hamburg.

655
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 1: What's up Mike, Hey.

656
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 15: Guys, how are you good?

657
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 16: Okay? I got a couple of things. Number One, I

658
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 16: don't think, uh, it's gonna be a real bad gaming

659
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 16: for Brady because Britty was up at the coordinator at

660
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 16: lsu WH when Burrow was there, and he did a

661
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 16: pretty good job. I think that I think we needed

662
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 16: a change. We were just very stagnant at this point.

663
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 1: Uh.

664
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 16: Number Two, I think that Sean McDermott needs to be

665
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 16: held accountable for the special team situations as far as

666
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 16: the kicks and things. Uh. He's the head coach. The

667
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 16: final decisions are come to him on a fourth and one.

668
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 16: He's the one that makes the call on on big situations.

669
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 16: He's the one that makes the call. He needs to

670
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 16: start being held accountable. And last thing I have, which

671
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:41,200
Speaker 16: is very very important, is I think that there is

672
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 16: a significant problem with the NFL because there are way

673
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,799
Speaker 16: too many defensive players getting hurt. And I think the

674
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:54,560
Speaker 16: reason that's happening is they are not practicing tackling during

675
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 16: during practices. They do not know how to tackle properly.

676
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 16: They're using their head. They're not they're not wrapping around,

677
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 16: uh and and and digging in with your shoulder like

678
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 16: they're supposed to. They're not hitting below the belt like

679
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:15,240
Speaker 16: they're supposed to. And they're getting major concussions and upper

680
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:18,960
Speaker 16: body injuries and lower body injuries because of that. Uh,

681
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 16: they're playing out of control. They're not playing in control

682
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:26,880
Speaker 16: as fires as far as tacklings, they're they're out of control,

683
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 16: and they're out of control because they don't know how

684
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 16: to tackle properly. And I've been saying this for years,

685
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 16: but I'm watching football this year and I see it.

686
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,280
Speaker 16: They're diving with their heads. Uh, you know, they're they're

687
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 16: just not wrapping around like we used to do when

688
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 16: we were playing football.

689
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 1: All right, Mike, I appreciate the call. I mean, okay,

690
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 1: to handle that all three things. Yeah, the offense need

691
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: to change. Yeah, everybody is on that same page. Your offense.

692
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 1: They want to shake the offense up. Every before the

693
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 1: change of the coaching staff Will made, we were all

694
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 1: talking about let's go no huddle, let's go fast, let's

695
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 1: go slow, let's let's get under center, let's they were

696
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 1: all we were all trying to come up with problem

697
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:11,479
Speaker 1: with fixes for what we thought the offense was doing.

698
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 1: And and now obviously the head coach and the and

699
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 1: GM and every they they agreed, let's let's shake it up.

700
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 1: We're gonna get a different guy in there calling place.

701
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:24,840
Speaker 1: Second thing, held accountable for the for the twelve men

702
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 1: on the field, Yeah he he Sean m You're right.

703
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:30,840
Speaker 1: I don't know what your idea of being held accountable

704
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 1: is different than mine. But he stood up on right

705
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 1: after the game and said it is inexcusable. He didn't

706
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,800
Speaker 1: make any excuses, it was. It was an absolute mistake

707
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,799
Speaker 1: that costs them the game. Now you can say there's

708
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,920
Speaker 1: a ton of stuff that could have made a difference

709
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 1: in that game, but the final one where you can't

710
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 1: recover anymore and finally just gifted them the game was

711
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:51,960
Speaker 1: the twelve men on the field on a missed field

712
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,759
Speaker 1: goal that they ultimately converted and they lose, even after

713
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: all the bad stuff that went on. Yes, uh, and

714
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:02,840
Speaker 1: McDermott acknowledged it. There is that loss because of that

715
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: twelve man penalty was inexcusable and he took accountability for it.

716
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:10,800
Speaker 2: So there's that, and there's been several times before after

717
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 2: games where he said, we've got problems we've got to

718
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,800
Speaker 2: fix and it starts with me. And there are plenty

719
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 2: of times where he said we didn't play well enough

720
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 2: and we didn't coach well enough. So he's taken I mean,

721
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 2: as far as head coaches go, I don't know if

722
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,799
Speaker 2: there is a guy that takes more accountability than Sean

723
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,359
Speaker 2: McDermott that's at least coach this team in the last

724
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 2: several years.

725
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 1: And for the tackling thing, you know, Mike, Yes, you're right,

726
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 1: defenders in the league don't tackle finger quotes the way

727
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 1: they used to, the way you and I. You're probably

728
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,840
Speaker 1: my the way you and I grew up tackling. You

729
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 1: go back and look at my football cards and you'll

730
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 1: laugh at the size of the shoulder pads I.

731
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:53,760
Speaker 2: Wore as big as your helmet.

732
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: I looked like a refrigerator. I mean I was a big,

733
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: you know, big square thing, big you know Jack Lambert

734
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,239
Speaker 1: type shoulder pads, you know, I mean, these huge things

735
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 1: that everybody used to wear. And if you look now,

736
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 1: nobody wears nobody wears shoulder pads like that anymore. And

737
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 1: there's reasons for that. You're not allowed to use them

738
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 1: the way we used to use them. Your head and

739
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 1: your shoulders back in the day when I played, were weapons.

740
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: You come in and fly in their head first, shoulder first,

741
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,359
Speaker 1: right at the top of the guy's head, right into

742
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:23,760
Speaker 1: his face mask. Obviously, and for good reason. That's illegal

743
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: these days. They're not allowed to tackle the way we

744
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,399
Speaker 1: used to tackle when I was a kid and when

745
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 1: I was playing. Even professional football, it's just not allowed

746
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:37,760
Speaker 1: anymore because saying her head's prevailed. And you're talking about injuries, Yeah,

747
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 1: guys go out with their different injuries now than there

748
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: have been. And there are fewer concussions now than there

749
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:51,880
Speaker 1: have been in the past. Mostly we may hear about

750
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:56,720
Speaker 1: them more because they're a bigger deal now than they were.

751
00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: Concussions were not a game stopper for most guys. Just

752
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 1: they just shook their head, wiped their helmet out with

753
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 1: a towel and put it back put and put it

754
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 1: back on, and went back on the field. I mean,

755
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,720
Speaker 1: we were in the dark ages. I mean, guys didn't

756
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 1: let a concussion stop them from playing. Headaches didn't stop

757
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:22,880
Speaker 1: them from playing. Now it does, and it seems like

758
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 1: to the you know, to us watching that. Wow, concussions

759
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,920
Speaker 1: are everywhere. They're actually way, way, way less than they

760
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 1: used to be, and the reason is because guys aren't

761
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: allowed to tackle the way they used to. And the

762
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:39,439
Speaker 1: game has changed away from being half a step away

763
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: from a bar fight into a professional sport that the

764
00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:47,879
Speaker 1: one that we all watch and enjoy. So, I mean,

765
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 1: you go back and look at film from the nineteen

766
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,239
Speaker 1: sixties and seventies, and I'm telling you it is a

767
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: bar fight. There ain't no two ways about Deacon Jones

768
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 1: and Dick Budkus and those guys. It was a fight.

769
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 1: And that's why you remember it used to see, like

770
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 1: the old movie North Dallas, forty guys would have to

771
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 1: work themselves into a rage to get mentally prepared to

772
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 1: go out and play because it was a fight. It

773
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:14,320
Speaker 1: was nothing but a fight. There were no rules. Head slap, yeah, sure,

774
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: punch a guys. Hey, it doesn't matter if it was

775
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,399
Speaker 1: open hand or closed fist they had he Hey, hey, hey,

776
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 1: break it up. It didn't matter again, Quarterbacks standing in

777
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 1: the pocket, clothesline that sucker. Take him off, take his

778
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:32,960
Speaker 1: helmet off, hit him in the side, knock him out there.

779
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 1: You ain't gonna even get a penalty for it. Seriously

780
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: high low guy blow his knees out. Ye, it was

781
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 1: all fair game. It was all fair game. I'm telling you.

782
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,399
Speaker 1: It was nothing but a it was a street fight.

783
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:49,719
Speaker 6: Yeah.

784
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 1: So yeah, you know what you can say, I don't

785
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: know how to tie it. Yes, you're right, but they

786
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 1: are not. It's not their fault. They are not soft.

787
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 1: They're not soft, they're you know, nothing like that.

788
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 2: And the reason there's less hitting in practices is because

789
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 2: that same players negotiated in the latest CBA. Yeah, there's like,

790
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 2: all right, we're gonna play seventeen games a season, now, okay, well,

791
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 2: we're not gonna practice in pads as much in the

792
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:18,920
Speaker 2: offseason if we're gonna have to strap it up for

793
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,600
Speaker 2: a whole nother game every single year, because that's going

794
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 2: to shorten our career. If we're hitting every day in practice.

795
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,320
Speaker 1: You can kill me. You can imagine what it's like. Folks,

796
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,720
Speaker 1: certainly you're you're it's bad enough when you know when somebody,

797
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 1: any quarterback, when Kyler Murray or Deshaun Watson, any of

798
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 1: these guys go down to an injury, how horrible is

799
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,600
Speaker 1: it when it happens in a practice because they're going

800
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 1: live on a Friday. No, I mean, that's it's just nuts.

801
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:46,959
Speaker 1: So they said, hey.

802
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:48,320
Speaker 2: Well we'll not stay list.

803
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 1: And so that's that's where they're at. Save that stuff

804
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 1: for Sunday.

805
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:53,799
Speaker 2: We got to take a break here. More of your

806
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 2: phone calls when we return. Eighth three five pot fifty

807
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 2: the number to get on board. How difficult a task

808
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 2: will it be for Joe Brady to turn around this

809
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,279
Speaker 2: Bill's offense? You let us know next here on one

810
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 2: Bill's Live, presented by Colida Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio.

811
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 2: Ticketmaster is the presenting sponsor of the Buffalo Bills twenty

812
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:26,840
Speaker 2: twenty three season. Ticketmaster the official ticket marketplace of the NFL.

813
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 2: Asking you at eighth three oh five point fifty, how

814
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 2: difficult to task do you think it will be for

815
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 2: Joe Brady to turn around Buffalo's offense? We go to

816
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:36,480
Speaker 2: Mark in West Seneca, X.

817
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:40,919
Speaker 17: What's up Mark, Good afternoon guys. Hey Steve, you had

818
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,479
Speaker 17: me laughing like crazy here. All I could think was, Ah,

819
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 17: the good old days with all your comments about the

820
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 17: old guys. So I called to answer your question about

821
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 17: how difficult this is this going to be? But I

822
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:58,840
Speaker 17: want to make one quick comment about Sean McDermott. I

823
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:04,239
Speaker 17: laugh when I the criticisms of Sean. Certainly everybody can

824
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,839
Speaker 17: do things better, but right now, my analogy is our

825
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 17: ship is listing a little bit left and a little

826
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,760
Speaker 17: bit right, and we needed to get back under control

827
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 17: and get stable. And I have confidence in Sean. He's

828
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 17: only one of a handful of guys in that league.

829
00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 17: I believe that can do it. And that's for two reasons.

830
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:27,319
Speaker 17: Sean McDermott is unwavering and resolute in his beliefs, and

831
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 17: I believe he's a leader of men, so I believe

832
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 17: he's going to get this thing right again. So that

833
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 17: being said, the difficulty with the offense, I think there's

834
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:41,000
Speaker 17: a lot of reasons to be optimistic, starting with I

835
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,399
Speaker 17: think the heartbeat of the offense. The offensive line has

836
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 17: been pretty steady and stable for the most part all

837
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 17: season long, and there's no reason to believe they won't

838
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:54,000
Speaker 17: continue that way, although they got some challenges coming. And

839
00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:58,920
Speaker 17: the talent level of that offense, the skill level, and

840
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 17: then the other part of this is our brain trust

841
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:07,719
Speaker 17: had the forethought to bring in experienced guys like a

842
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 17: Joe Brady and a Mike Shula to be in our

843
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:15,200
Speaker 17: offensive room, you know, our offensive coaches room. So we

844
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 17: have a lot of experience in a strong resume with

845
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 17: the guys who are going to be stepping up and

846
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:23,799
Speaker 17: running things now. So I think there's a lot of

847
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 17: reasons why we should be optimistic and hoping for it.

848
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 17: And everybody wants to see him get back to that

849
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 17: thirty point level again and everything, and of course we

850
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 17: all do. But what I want to see. I want

851
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 17: to see these guys use the personnel across the board

852
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:44,680
Speaker 17: through sixty minutes. It spread the ball out to everybody

853
00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:47,680
Speaker 17: and not have anybody get lost in the wash. And

854
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:51,239
Speaker 17: I want to see them attack the field consistently for

855
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 17: sixty minutes at all three levels of the defense. If

856
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,120
Speaker 17: they do those two things with the talent level I

857
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,359
Speaker 17: have or we have, I think we can be very

858
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:01,359
Speaker 17: very successfu. So that's what I'm looking for.

859
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 4: Guys.

860
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:04,040
Speaker 2: All right, thanks very much for the call, Mark appreciate it.

861
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:05,360
Speaker 2: We're going to move along because we've got a lot

862
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:08,360
Speaker 2: of people holding here. At eight oh three zero five fifty,

863
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,319
Speaker 2: we go to Mike in Buffalo next.

864
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 1: What do you got for his mic Hi?

865
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:12,880
Speaker 14: Guys?

866
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 18: As a fan, I'm just I'm trying to take for

867
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 18: my expectations. Obviously, I hope these guys start going off

868
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 18: and scoring forty a game, But you know, we have

869
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,880
Speaker 18: a tough test ahead of us with the Jets defense,

870
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:25,919
Speaker 18: who they've kind of had our number for the better

871
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:29,239
Speaker 18: part of two years. So I don't know if it's

872
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 18: going to look different. However, what I do think will

873
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,720
Speaker 18: happen is, and you're seeing this with Antonio Pearson Oakland,

874
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 18: you see a time and time again sometimes a new

875
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,880
Speaker 18: coach comes in and a team just has like a

876
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 18: new life. They just they start winning games. They start

877
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,239
Speaker 18: playing with passion to kind of play for the new guy,

878
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 18: and you know, show that they're playing for him. So

879
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:53,840
Speaker 18: I do think that the coaching shake up could yield

880
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,399
Speaker 18: better results based on the players might be a little

881
00:46:56,400 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 18: bit more fired up. What I will say is there's

882
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 18: a ton of talent on the offense. Maybe even the

883
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,439
Speaker 18: play calling wasn't that bad. What I'm seeing as a fan,

884
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:10,640
Speaker 18: as a former athlete myself, I'm seeing major execution problems

885
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:14,400
Speaker 18: and it's everybody. It's alan it's cooked, you know, it's Davis.

886
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:18,239
Speaker 18: So I think execution problems them from a lack of

887
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 18: focus or a lack of being invested in what they're

888
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,920
Speaker 18: being asked to do. That's just what I've seen. I

889
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:25,440
Speaker 18: don't know if you guys agree with me or not.

890
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:28,359
Speaker 18: So maybe if they get a new coach in there,

891
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,560
Speaker 18: maybe the execution problems will kind of fade away because

892
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 18: they're more focused, or maybe they're more bought into what

893
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:34,719
Speaker 18: he wants to do.

894
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get that. And you know, there is something

895
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 2: to be said about a boost that a team can

896
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 2: get when a change is made, because it gets everybody's

897
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:44,239
Speaker 2: attention right quick. I can tell you that number one.

898
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:48,480
Speaker 2: But number two, Yeah, if Joe Brady's got some fresh

899
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:52,040
Speaker 2: new ideas and a shakeup, you know is clearly necessary

900
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 2: because you're out of margin. Ferrera here now at five

901
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:58,240
Speaker 2: and five. So number one, there's built in urgency because

902
00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:02,520
Speaker 2: of your current record. Number two, somebody's head rolled because

903
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:05,319
Speaker 2: of it. That'll get your attention. And then number three,

904
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 2: you want to help the new guy succeed so it

905
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:12,760
Speaker 2: doesn't get worse. So there's there's built in incentive to

906
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 2: do better when you step out onto the field and

907
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:20,560
Speaker 2: your head coach made a difficult decision to help make

908
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 2: your side of the ball better going forward. So if

909
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 2: the coach is gonna take a dramatic step like that,

910
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:29,799
Speaker 2: and this team's as close knit as they say they are,

911
00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 2: you respond accordingly because it's your job to do so.

912
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we talked about a little bit and I

913
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,359
Speaker 1: don't know if it was on the show or maybe back.

914
00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 1: It's hard to fire a coach and to but the

915
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,359
Speaker 1: reason and the reason you get to that point is

916
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,000
Speaker 1: because you feel you've got a responsibility to the other

917
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:53,920
Speaker 1: to the fifty three guys on the team and the

918
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,160
Speaker 1: other coaches on the staff, like we got to make

919
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,239
Speaker 1: it out. That's what leaders do, because yeah, it's the

920
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:05,480
Speaker 1: hard decisions and no question, we will never know. We

921
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:07,280
Speaker 1: don't know. We're going to see what this offense looks

922
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:08,719
Speaker 1: like the rest of the way, and if it does

923
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 1: not get any better, and if it looks exactly the same, uh,

924
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:15,840
Speaker 1: you know, all of us I think will be highly

925
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:19,840
Speaker 1: disappointed and a little bit shocked. I think I expect

926
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:23,560
Speaker 1: it to look different. From my perspective, there's gonna be

927
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 1: and it won't have to look different, like like transformative.

928
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:30,439
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to go from you know, the old

929
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:34,360
Speaker 1: Redskins power tray to run and shoot, it's not going

930
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:36,560
Speaker 1: to be like that kind of transformation, but it'll be

931
00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:40,400
Speaker 1: a handful of plays throughout the game where it looks

932
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:46,439
Speaker 1: easy and crucial moments and at times guys running open

933
00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:50,839
Speaker 1: uh doing some things that like, oh wow, good one,

934
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 1: I didn't you know were it catches you off guard

935
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:56,440
Speaker 1: all of that stuff, and it only it only have

936
00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 1: to be on a half a dozen or less plays

937
00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,440
Speaker 1: a game where it says, oh, yeah, okay, that's something

938
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:03,719
Speaker 1: I have not seen before. That's something I don't think

939
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:07,360
Speaker 1: would have happened with Ken Dorsey at offensive coordinator. We'll

940
00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:10,880
Speaker 1: never know. He may take Ken Dorsey's same script and

941
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:12,840
Speaker 1: play and try and do it like him and just

942
00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 1: miss on a couple and it'll look different. We don't know.

943
00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:21,080
Speaker 1: We don't know whether it's execution, whether it's mindset, whether

944
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,640
Speaker 1: it's buy in by the players. We may never know

945
00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 1: what it was like under Ken Dorsey, particularly if it

946
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:29,879
Speaker 1: changes for the positive here. You just never know. All

947
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,560
Speaker 1: you expect is that the guys that are left standing

948
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 1: in the room are going to put their nose of

949
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:38,239
Speaker 1: the grindstone and start trying to put things together in

950
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:40,680
Speaker 1: a way that's more productive and is not such a

951
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 1: heavy lift.

952
00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:43,839
Speaker 2: Break time for us here, but our number two. We'll

953
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:45,840
Speaker 2: begin with your phone calls again. So if you're on

954
00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 2: hold todayto three oh five fifty, stay where you are.

955
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 2: We'll get to you when we return. As we're asking you,

956
00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 2: how difficult a task is Joe Brady facing in getting

957
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,839
Speaker 2: this Bill's offense turned around? You let us know and

958
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 2: we'll take your calls next Here on One Bill's Live

959
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,120
Speaker 2: presented by Coil out of Hell. It's Buffalo Bill's Radium.

960
00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 1: This is One Bill's Live presented by Kalia Health.

961
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:42,919
Speaker 2: All right, now we number two on a Wednesday. Chris Brown,

962
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,359
Speaker 2: Steve Tasker with you here on One Bill's Live. Thanks

963
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:48,000
Speaker 2: for joining us. Topic a discussion for you. How difficult

964
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:50,239
Speaker 2: of a task do you think it will be for

965
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 2: new offensive coordinator Joe Brady to turn around this Bill's

966
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:58,120
Speaker 2: offense with seven games to play and quite frankly, very

967
00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 2: little margin for error. Back to the phones we go

968
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,200
Speaker 2: and to Steve in Toronto, North of the Border. What

969
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 2: do you have for his Steve Kay?

970
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:09,719
Speaker 19: Guys, thanks for taking my call. Sure, I think he's

971
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:11,759
Speaker 19: I think Joe Bray is gonna have a very very

972
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:15,040
Speaker 19: hard Uh, It's gonna be very hard for him. Josh

973
00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:17,080
Speaker 19: Allen is the pocket passer. They're trying to make him

974
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,360
Speaker 19: a pocket passer, sit in the pocket and redefenses, and

975
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:24,200
Speaker 19: he can't do that unless he runs an extensive plays

976
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:27,520
Speaker 19: which made him very successful throughout the first five years

977
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:31,440
Speaker 19: of his career. They have to go back to that,

978
00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:33,160
Speaker 19: and I understand that they don't want to go back

979
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:35,320
Speaker 19: to that because he won't last ten years in this league.

980
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:37,800
Speaker 19: He still keeps on taking the hits he's been taking.

981
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 20: There's two guys that were reminded who who ran then

982
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:45,840
Speaker 20: then navigated the pocket passing. There were Steve Young and

983
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,439
Speaker 20: John Elway. For both of them, they ran the start

984
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:51,920
Speaker 20: of their careers, then they stop running and developing the

985
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:54,919
Speaker 20: pocket passers. Then there was one on the flip side,

986
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,439
Speaker 20: which was Cam Newton who tried to be a pocket passer.

987
00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:01,040
Speaker 19: And he was done a year later. I'll hang up

988
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:01,880
Speaker 19: and hear your comments.

989
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll partially agree with you, Steve, because I think

990
00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:09,040
Speaker 2: Josh Allen is one of the best play action passing

991
00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:12,720
Speaker 2: quarterbacks in the entire football league, and the numbers earlier

992
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 2: this season when they were actually using play action bore

993
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:18,680
Speaker 2: that out. He was almost perfect. There was one game

994
00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 2: he was seventeen to seventeen. I think it was the

995
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 2: Miami game off play action with a one fifty eight rating.

996
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:27,040
Speaker 2: So you're in the pocket when you're using play action,

997
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 2: and he's a very effective quarterback that way. We've had

998
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:33,000
Speaker 2: Dan Rolofski on each and every week on Tuesdays, and

999
00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 2: he believes that Josh Allen is the best play action

1000
00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:39,839
Speaker 2: quarterback in football because once you lay that fake out

1001
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:43,040
Speaker 2: and you create more space for your players, now Josh

1002
00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:44,880
Speaker 2: Allen surveys the field and his arm can put it

1003
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:48,080
Speaker 2: anywhere on the field you need him to. So I

1004
00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:49,920
Speaker 2: would hope that Joe Brady gets back to some more

1005
00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 2: play action because I think Josh can be immensely effective

1006
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:57,040
Speaker 2: in that area of quarterbacking. So I've got my fingers

1007
00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:59,320
Speaker 2: and toes cross that we see more of that going forward.

1008
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:04,880
Speaker 2: I understand your examples that you gave, and they're well noted.

1009
00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:07,960
Speaker 2: Steve Young, John Elway, Yes, and yes, that was the

1010
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:14,359
Speaker 2: trajectory of their careers. So yeah, they also had two

1011
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 2: of the best offensive coordinators football has ever seen in

1012
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 2: Bill Walsh and Mike Shanahan. That helps. So we'll see

1013
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:26,880
Speaker 2: where it goes with Josh going forward, and Cam Newton,

1014
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:30,719
Speaker 2: while he is every bit as physically gifted as Josh

1015
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:35,960
Speaker 2: Allen was, I don't think I don't think his processing

1016
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:38,160
Speaker 2: of defenses is as good as Josh. So I'm going

1017
00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 2: to disagree with you there as well, Steve, because I

1018
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:44,000
Speaker 2: still think Josh Allen is underrated in terms of his

1019
00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:44,840
Speaker 2: football Like Q.

1020
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:48,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I will say that it's the job of the

1021
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:51,839
Speaker 1: coaching staff to get the most out of what their

1022
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:58,799
Speaker 1: players do best. Everything form should be built and schemed

1023
00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:02,920
Speaker 1: around that. How Josh Allen, what his best attributes are,

1024
00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:05,640
Speaker 1: what he does best, what he likes best, How that

1025
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:08,239
Speaker 1: messes with Steph Diggs's skill set, how that messes with

1026
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 1: Kinkaid and cook skill set, how the offensive line folds

1027
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:15,359
Speaker 1: into that. All of that and what all of those

1028
00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:17,439
Speaker 1: guys do together and what they do best. That's where

1029
00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,000
Speaker 1: you build it around. And then on the edges of that,

1030
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 1: you keep trying to expand it, asking a little more

1031
00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:25,440
Speaker 1: of each position group and each guy so that you

1032
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:27,560
Speaker 1: can do more and more and more and be more diverse.

1033
00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:31,360
Speaker 1: When you get into a position where it seems like

1034
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 1: the Bills have gotten to with their offense is that

1035
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:38,000
Speaker 1: they have not pushed that envelope enough, because now they've

1036
00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:45,000
Speaker 1: got defenses self admittedly saying they're predictable. That's it. You

1037
00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:50,920
Speaker 1: can't help you cannot be predictable. That is suicide. So

1038
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:54,920
Speaker 1: changing the offensive coordinator into somebody who's gonna call different

1039
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,440
Speaker 1: plays in different situations and maybe scheme up some different

1040
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,760
Speaker 1: formations and shifts, and maybe scheme up some different personnel

1041
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:05,439
Speaker 1: combinations and shifts and formations and do different plays out

1042
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:08,719
Speaker 1: of those things. Yeah, then you become a little bit

1043
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:12,560
Speaker 1: more unpredictable, and the windows get bigger, the margin of

1044
00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:15,440
Speaker 1: error increases, and the pressure you put on a defense

1045
00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:19,759
Speaker 1: and the things they have to do widely expands, and

1046
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,799
Speaker 1: it becomes really difficult on them. And that's where you're

1047
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:25,600
Speaker 1: sitting right now. You're in the midst of getting a

1048
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,080
Speaker 1: new guy in there to change things up so that

1049
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 1: the offense will be less predictable and thereby putting the

1050
00:56:31,080 --> 00:56:33,640
Speaker 1: defense into a mental spot where they're not familiar with.

1051
00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:36,640
Speaker 2: Inherently, you're going to be more unpredictable this week, just

1052
00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:38,160
Speaker 2: by virtue of the fact you have a different guy

1053
00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:41,840
Speaker 2: calling it. They don't have game tape on Joe Brady's

1054
00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:45,080
Speaker 2: play calling. With this collection of personnel, and now you're

1055
00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:47,720
Speaker 2: going to be inherently unpredictable this week anyway, we got out.

1056
00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:50,040
Speaker 1: Of the box. We heard two from analysts around the

1057
00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:53,719
Speaker 1: league where two criticisms about the Bills offense during the

1058
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:58,000
Speaker 1: Ken Dorse era. One was that they were predictable, like

1059
00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 1: we said, and two and now now I slipped my

1060
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,880
Speaker 1: mind what the second one was. There were two maame

1061
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 1: as an assisting execution, yeah, and the problem is predictability.

1062
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:16,560
Speaker 1: And the other one that I just lost. Gosh, darn it.

1063
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:18,480
Speaker 2: It wasn't scheme facilitating execution.

1064
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:21,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it was predictability and I think it

1065
00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:25,560
Speaker 1: was Yeah. I can't remember. I'm gonna come back to it.

1066
00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:27,160
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna come back to me in two seconds.

1067
00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:28,320
Speaker 1: As soon do we take another call.

1068
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, let me do that so you can remember.

1069
00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:32,960
Speaker 2: We go back to the phones and to Jay in Buffalo.

1070
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:33,160
Speaker 1: Next.

1071
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:33,800
Speaker 2: What do you got first?

1072
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:34,120
Speaker 1: Jay?

1073
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:37,880
Speaker 2: Jay? Are you with us?

1074
00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:39,560
Speaker 21: Is it Judy?

1075
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 6: Oh?

1076
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:43,720
Speaker 2: Jorry? Somebody wrote down Jay here for me? So sorry, Judy?

1077
00:57:43,760 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 1: What's up?

1078
00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 21: Okay, guys, look at the biggend of the year, I

1079
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:51,440
Speaker 21: thought we would finish ten to seven, good enough to

1080
00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:54,880
Speaker 21: make the playoffs. Now I'm hoping for seven to ten.

1081
00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 21: Uh so what we need. There's nobody who can turn

1082
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:00,640
Speaker 21: this offs around.

1083
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:02,080
Speaker 10: It's a lost cause.

1084
00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:05,520
Speaker 21: It is what it is. The best we can do

1085
00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:11,120
Speaker 21: is start looking at the draft next year. Hopefully they'll

1086
00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:15,440
Speaker 21: pick up two speedy receivers and forgive me but a

1087
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:20,200
Speaker 21: backup quarterback. I'm not even sure that this group can

1088
00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:25,160
Speaker 21: direct properly. Two years ago, what did they do? They

1089
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:29,640
Speaker 21: gave us kiir alom as a number one draft choice. Hello,

1090
00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:35,360
Speaker 21: so you know, I'm as frustrated as everybody else. But

1091
00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:38,920
Speaker 21: that's what it is. It is what it.

1092
00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 2: Is, all right, Judy, thanks for the call. I'll respectfully

1093
00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:47,800
Speaker 2: disagree with you on the drafting element of it. If

1094
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:51,360
Speaker 2: you look at Brandon Bean's track record in round one,

1095
00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:57,240
Speaker 2: it's pretty damn good. Josh Allen, Tremaine, Edmonds, ed Oliver

1096
00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:01,240
Speaker 2: twenty twenty, they didn't have a pick acquired Stefan Diggs

1097
00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:02,720
Speaker 2: if you want to count that as a first round

1098
00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:07,960
Speaker 2: draft choice. And then you know, twenty twenty one they

1099
00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:12,040
Speaker 2: what was is Elam twenty twenty one? No, he's twenty

1100
00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:14,680
Speaker 2: twenty two. Who's twenty twenty one first round pick?

1101
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:15,600
Speaker 10: Oh?

1102
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:21,000
Speaker 2: And then last year is Dalton Kincaid. So, yeah, Elam

1103
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:24,440
Speaker 2: is twenty twenty two, twenty twenty three. Why am I

1104
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 2: not remembering twenty twenty one first round draft choice?

1105
00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 5: Oh?

1106
00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 2: Greg Grusso, Greg Grussou is twenty twenty one. So to

1107
00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:36,080
Speaker 2: me and I still I'm this is just my opinion.

1108
00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:38,000
Speaker 2: I believe Elam can play, and I believe he will

1109
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,600
Speaker 2: have a successful career. Why he's on ir right now,

1110
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:43,320
Speaker 2: he can't play. I believe he will still have a

1111
00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:45,720
Speaker 2: successful career in this league. But even if you don't

1112
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,880
Speaker 2: want to count Elim as a hit in the first round,

1113
00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 2: what is that seven out of eight or six out

1114
00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:53,400
Speaker 2: of seven? You can't.

1115
00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:54,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can't.

1116
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:58,440
Speaker 2: Knock his first round draft choices, You absolutely cannot. They've

1117
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:02,000
Speaker 2: all hit in my opinion, and even and you already

1118
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:04,080
Speaker 2: know about King Kate that's in year one.

1119
01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:07,000
Speaker 1: This year looks looks like a really good top six picks.

1120
01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:09,040
Speaker 2: When I have to disagree with you on that.

1121
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:13,120
Speaker 1: Dorian Williams, Dorian Williams, Osiris, Torrance and Kin Kate all

1122
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:16,200
Speaker 1: looked like really good players this year. Elam, you can

1123
01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:18,920
Speaker 1: make take what you want. For whatever reason he's not

1124
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:24,080
Speaker 1: getting on the field. James Cook, Terrell Bernard both number ones.

1125
01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:29,000
Speaker 1: Khalil Shakira is now the top slot receiver. Yeah, I'm

1126
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:32,960
Speaker 1: gonna speculam Spencer Brown. Russell and Spencer Brown are both.

1127
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:36,560
Speaker 1: Taron Johnson's in there Epanesa And even though you don't

1128
01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:38,200
Speaker 1: like that, they don't have Matt Zach Moss on the

1129
01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:43,320
Speaker 1: squad anymore. Uh, they got back some some return for him.

1130
01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:43,960
Speaker 9: Uh.

1131
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:45,360
Speaker 2: Good player in Indy right now.

1132
01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:48,960
Speaker 1: Ye, Jake and Gabe Davis, Tyler Bass is in that group.

1133
01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:52,640
Speaker 1: So at Oliver, you know you can go back. You

1134
01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:57,320
Speaker 1: can pick out guys like Cody Ford or even Devin Singletary. Yeahs,

1135
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:01,520
Speaker 1: Boogie Basham is just okay. One though he's the second round,

1136
01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:04,480
Speaker 1: he's not in the round one. Yeah. I mean, and

1137
01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:08,680
Speaker 1: I'll say this too, And I know there are guys

1138
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:10,880
Speaker 1: out there and where there's always gonna be those players

1139
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,080
Speaker 1: where you passed up on him and they turned into

1140
01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:15,920
Speaker 1: all pros, you know, or all time greats. There are

1141
01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 1: those out there. I would challenge you to go look

1142
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:22,600
Speaker 1: at other gms over the last six or seven years,

1143
01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:25,200
Speaker 1: see what their hitting and see those draft picks that

1144
01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:29,520
Speaker 1: those guys have. I just saw something on Joe Douglas.

1145
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:32,200
Speaker 1: Joe Douglas, the guy that we've been like, Wow, he's

1146
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:35,960
Speaker 1: hitting it. They're crushing him over his twenty twenty one draft.

1147
01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:37,919
Speaker 2: Well, and they're crushing him over this draft from last

1148
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:41,200
Speaker 2: year because he drafted from a position of strength defensive end.

1149
01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:43,920
Speaker 2: Will McDonald. Guy can't get on the field because the

1150
01:01:43,920 --> 01:01:47,400
Speaker 2: position's so deep, because he just drafted a defensive end

1151
01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:49,200
Speaker 2: in the first round the year before when he had

1152
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:50,640
Speaker 2: three first round draft choices.

1153
01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:56,600
Speaker 1: So, yeah, yes, drafting is hard, it's an inexact. It

1154
01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,320
Speaker 1: is not perfect, and Brandon Bean has not been perfect.

1155
01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:03,320
Speaker 1: Don't compare him to what he could have drafted given

1156
01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:05,720
Speaker 1: the guys in the league. Now, compare him to what

1157
01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:07,920
Speaker 1: all those other GMS drafted in the same draft and

1158
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:10,200
Speaker 1: where they're at. Certainly there's some guys on year to

1159
01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:12,080
Speaker 1: year basis or that they hit it really well, like

1160
01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:14,200
Speaker 1: the Jets two years ago, Brice Hall.

1161
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:16,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, they had three picks in the first twenty.

1162
01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:17,560
Speaker 1: Those are great drafts.

1163
01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:19,560
Speaker 2: I could hit on two of them, right, those.

1164
01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:23,880
Speaker 1: Are great drafts. But look at the length of his

1165
01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:27,840
Speaker 1: draft classes and you won't be too disappointed.

1166
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:30,560
Speaker 2: You won't be And I'm sorry you're already folding up

1167
01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 2: the tents. Here, Judy, I'm willing to hold out a

1168
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:35,920
Speaker 2: little bit more hope for a little while longer. Maybe

1169
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,880
Speaker 2: I'm convinced as you are in a few weeks. But

1170
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:42,240
Speaker 2: for now, like I said before, I'm going to cross

1171
01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:43,760
Speaker 2: my fingers and toes that it gets better.

1172
01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 6: Here.

1173
01:02:44,040 --> 01:02:45,760
Speaker 2: Let's go to Mark in Jersey City next. What do

1174
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:47,320
Speaker 2: you have for us? Mark here on one Bill's Live.

1175
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:52,400
Speaker 22: Good afternoon, gentlemen. I like a lot of outsiders of

1176
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:54,560
Speaker 22: the alacrity of the offense, So just they look like

1177
01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:56,920
Speaker 22: they've been in a malaise. And I just think Ken

1178
01:02:56,960 --> 01:02:59,919
Speaker 22: Dorsey's personality outside of losing his mind in the press box,

1179
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:03,840
Speaker 22: in the coach box, I'm sorry. In Miami, you know,

1180
01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:06,120
Speaker 22: we've just really seen like more of a subdued And

1181
01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:08,320
Speaker 22: they say the coach takes on the personnel. Well, the

1182
01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:11,280
Speaker 22: team takes on the personality the coach. And McDermott spoke

1183
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:14,880
Speaker 22: to that, just just like a subculture within the offense.

1184
01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:18,240
Speaker 22: They both said about Daniel Jones down here, he's got

1185
01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:20,600
Speaker 22: to get him up for games, He's got to calm

1186
01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:24,680
Speaker 22: himself down. So I think there was just a certain

1187
01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:29,480
Speaker 22: synergy player coach, coach the player that that was missing there.

1188
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:33,760
Speaker 22: I believe Bean and McDermott, having had been so close

1189
01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:35,520
Speaker 22: to the Cam Newton situation.

1190
01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:38,680
Speaker 10: Has really like played a role in this watching his

1191
01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:41,960
Speaker 10: career road because of the injury, you know, the show,

1192
01:03:42,080 --> 01:03:43,960
Speaker 10: the multiple Souldier injuries, and I think he had an

1193
01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:46,520
Speaker 10: ankle that was nagging him for a while. And they

1194
01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:49,520
Speaker 10: are playing like trying to walk this line with Alan

1195
01:03:49,600 --> 01:03:52,240
Speaker 10: that is just you can't do it. It'd be like

1196
01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:55,760
Speaker 10: asking Mike Tyson, you know, dude, you know, don't tuck

1197
01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:57,600
Speaker 10: and roll and throw your left hook from hell.

1198
01:03:57,560 --> 01:04:00,360
Speaker 15: Because he could his hook could get there first.

1199
01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:02,400
Speaker 10: You're not going to ask him to do that.

1200
01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:03,800
Speaker 22: You're gonna tell him to let it go.

1201
01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:08,560
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I get it, Thanks Mark. Yeah. And by

1202
01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:11,439
Speaker 1: the way, I did remember what that. There were two

1203
01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:15,720
Speaker 1: criticisms of Ken Dorsey. One was predictability. The other was

1204
01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:17,480
Speaker 1: that none of the plays from one part of the

1205
01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:20,120
Speaker 1: offense linked to another plot. They didn't look you know,

1206
01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:24,160
Speaker 1: there was no cohesion in the offense, flow, no flow

1207
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:24,920
Speaker 1: in the offense.

1208
01:04:26,120 --> 01:04:28,439
Speaker 2: One play didn't cater to the next, and the one after.

1209
01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:30,560
Speaker 1: There wasn't a wrinkle off of play that you'd had

1210
01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:32,040
Speaker 1: success with where they're gonna jump on that.

1211
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:34,000
Speaker 2: We're gonna come back to that in the third quarter.

1212
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:35,880
Speaker 1: Right we're here. Yeah, there's not a play that you

1213
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:37,680
Speaker 1: have in your offense that you really hit him with

1214
01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:40,400
Speaker 1: this play and now they're all over it and you

1215
01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:42,960
Speaker 1: don't have a wrinkle off that play. Said, they're gonna

1216
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:44,800
Speaker 1: they're gonna jump in on the line of scrimmage and

1217
01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:46,440
Speaker 1: stop that play, and all of a sudden, that's not

1218
01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:49,120
Speaker 1: the play, it's this one. You don't have any of that.

1219
01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:52,920
Speaker 1: That was one of the criticisms of Ken Dorsey's offense.

1220
01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:54,960
Speaker 2: I will say though, that I did. I have an

1221
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:57,640
Speaker 2: example of where I did see that, and that was

1222
01:04:57,680 --> 01:05:01,400
Speaker 2: on the touchdown drive that finished with Kincate. They ran

1223
01:05:01,440 --> 01:05:04,400
Speaker 2: that run play with a pulling Dion Dawkins like five

1224
01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:07,439
Speaker 2: out of seven plays, and they had a similar look

1225
01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:09,800
Speaker 2: there and they threw it to Kincaid who was wide open.

1226
01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:12,080
Speaker 1: Did on the twenty two yard touch hit the out

1227
01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:12,360
Speaker 1: and up.

1228
01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:15,000
Speaker 2: So it did happen on occasion. I can't speak to

1229
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,080
Speaker 2: how often, but that is an example that sticks out

1230
01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:20,120
Speaker 2: in my head, probably just because it happened two days ago,

1231
01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:23,360
Speaker 2: where I said, oh, they did work something off of

1232
01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:25,560
Speaker 2: a play that they had been hitting them on for

1233
01:05:25,720 --> 01:05:27,520
Speaker 2: several plays on that scoring drive.

1234
01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:32,600
Speaker 1: Right, So all that stuff being said, yeah, the offense

1235
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:36,919
Speaker 1: has been flat. It's been difficult. We saw it last

1236
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:38,439
Speaker 1: year in the second half of the year. They never

1237
01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:39,960
Speaker 1: came out of it. They came out of the gate

1238
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:43,160
Speaker 1: this year, and three weeks into or a month into it,

1239
01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:46,200
Speaker 1: everything dried up because teams now had four games to

1240
01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:48,960
Speaker 1: look at of the Bills running their offense and at

1241
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:52,640
Speaker 1: the highest level, and they just said, all right, if

1242
01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:55,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna do it to us now after scoring forty

1243
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:59,120
Speaker 1: eight on Miami and thirty seven on Washington and thirty

1244
01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:03,520
Speaker 1: eight on the Raiders, let's see you do those plays

1245
01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:05,520
Speaker 1: against us, and nobody would let him do him anymore.

1246
01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:07,120
Speaker 1: And they didn't. They did not adjust to that. It

1247
01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:11,360
Speaker 1: didn't seem like So it's been a heavy, a really

1248
01:06:11,400 --> 01:06:14,480
Speaker 1: tough slog for the last six six, seven weeks.

1249
01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:17,520
Speaker 2: And maybe there is some merit to what you know,

1250
01:06:17,680 --> 01:06:20,680
Speaker 2: Mark said about the Cam Newton experience.

1251
01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:21,640
Speaker 1: That's good point.

1252
01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:24,640
Speaker 2: Being a McDermott, you know, they saw how his career

1253
01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:28,960
Speaker 2: ended unceremoniously due to running too much, taking too many hits,

1254
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:32,640
Speaker 2: and sustaining shoulder injuries that compromise his ability to throw

1255
01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:35,840
Speaker 2: the football. And you know it took a year and

1256
01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:37,720
Speaker 2: a half, but he was out of the league because

1257
01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:39,840
Speaker 2: he just he couldn't function at the quarterback position. He's

1258
01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:42,080
Speaker 2: bouncing passes on ten yard outs.

1259
01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:44,200
Speaker 1: Right his terrible He could not anymore.

1260
01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:48,520
Speaker 2: I understand that fear being there, but I don't know

1261
01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:52,600
Speaker 2: if you bridle Josh Allen so much to the point

1262
01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:59,080
Speaker 2: where the offense becomes this impossible task each and every week, Like,

1263
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:02,720
Speaker 2: what what is it? What are the unattended consequences of that?

1264
01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:06,600
Speaker 2: We're seeing some of them now perhaps, and that's the problem.

1265
01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:09,800
Speaker 2: You've rendered your offense a middle of the pack group.

1266
01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:13,920
Speaker 2: That's what's happened. So you have to find a way

1267
01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:18,440
Speaker 2: to course correct that to get back to being an

1268
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:22,760
Speaker 2: offense that in twenty twenty scored on forty nine percent

1269
01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:25,720
Speaker 2: of their possessions. Let's just think about that for a second.

1270
01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:28,840
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty, and granted there were different aspects at

1271
01:07:28,840 --> 01:07:33,200
Speaker 2: play here, no fans on the road, communication, easier defenses

1272
01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:35,960
Speaker 2: did not tackle a single human the entire offseason until

1273
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:38,280
Speaker 2: you got to the regular season. Scoring was at an

1274
01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:43,600
Speaker 2: all time high. So I respect all of that factual data,

1275
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:45,800
Speaker 2: but you were scoring at a rate of forty nine

1276
01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:48,640
Speaker 2: percent of your possessions. That is not the case. Now

1277
01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:51,880
Speaker 2: they're averaging seven points in the first half in each

1278
01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:54,480
Speaker 2: of the last three games. It's just flat out not

1279
01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:57,200
Speaker 2: good enough. It's why a change has occurred. Now let's

1280
01:07:57,200 --> 01:07:59,760
Speaker 2: see what that change brings. Let's go to the tweets

1281
01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:03,120
Speaker 2: sheeet while we wait for some callers at eight three,

1282
01:08:03,440 --> 01:08:06,200
Speaker 2: five point fifty one eighty eight five fifty two, five

1283
01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:10,240
Speaker 2: point fifty and tweets sheet, as always, is brought to

1284
01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:14,120
Speaker 2: you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official equipment moving company

1285
01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:17,679
Speaker 2: of the Buffalo Bills. Chris leads us off when asked

1286
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:19,759
Speaker 2: how difficult a task it will be for Joe Brady

1287
01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:21,639
Speaker 2: to turn around the Bills offense and says it won't

1288
01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,160
Speaker 2: change much for this week, maybe a few add ins

1289
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:26,759
Speaker 2: for the Philly game, hopefully some new tweaks for post

1290
01:08:26,800 --> 01:08:29,639
Speaker 2: bye week. Can it get worse question mark.

1291
01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:34,240
Speaker 1: Let me just tell you some Yes, it can always

1292
01:08:34,280 --> 01:08:38,360
Speaker 1: get worse, particularly with an offense that's the top five

1293
01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:42,040
Speaker 1: and a lot of analytical data that tells you that, yeah,

1294
01:08:42,080 --> 01:08:46,040
Speaker 1: it's not all that bad. Yes, it can always We

1295
01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:47,639
Speaker 1: all know it can always get worse.

1296
01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 2: On a short week. It is interesting because you might

1297
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:55,720
Speaker 2: be eager to change some things, but because you've only

1298
01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 2: got five days to get ready for all intents and purposes,

1299
01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:03,640
Speaker 2: you might be limited in scope in terms of what

1300
01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:05,920
Speaker 2: you can alter and change. I think the biggest change

1301
01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:10,600
Speaker 2: you can make is usage of certain players. I have

1302
01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:13,240
Speaker 2: been pounding the table to use James Cook Moore in

1303
01:09:13,280 --> 01:09:16,280
Speaker 2: the passing game. We saw a flash of that at

1304
01:09:16,280 --> 01:09:18,120
Speaker 2: the start of the game, and then he unfortunately fumbled

1305
01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 2: the ball and sat for two quarters, and then he

1306
01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:22,759
Speaker 2: came into the game in midway through the third quarter

1307
01:09:23,120 --> 01:09:27,280
Speaker 2: and still finished with one hundred yards rushing. So I'm

1308
01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:29,600
Speaker 2: still in that camp. Can we get James Cook on

1309
01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:32,040
Speaker 2: the field more please? And throw him the ball? He

1310
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:35,880
Speaker 2: is the second most dynamic athlete in on the roster,

1311
01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:41,400
Speaker 2: that's number one behind Stefan Diggs. Despite his limited playing time.

1312
01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:44,519
Speaker 2: I want to say he is eighth in the league

1313
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:47,840
Speaker 2: in rushing right now. Eighth in the league, and he

1314
01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:51,160
Speaker 2: plays half the snaps. Eighth in the league in rushing.

1315
01:09:51,400 --> 01:09:53,320
Speaker 2: I think he's twelfth in the league in total yards

1316
01:09:53,320 --> 01:09:55,639
Speaker 2: from scrimmage. Think about that for a second. He's getting

1317
01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:59,160
Speaker 2: half the snaps, Twelfth in the league in total yards

1318
01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:01,360
Speaker 2: from scrimmage. I wonder what would happen if you played

1319
01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:01,720
Speaker 2: them more.

1320
01:10:01,880 --> 01:10:04,599
Speaker 1: And I think the biggest difference you're going to see

1321
01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:07,000
Speaker 1: this week has to do with it's not going to

1322
01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:09,599
Speaker 1: be very much a different play sheet, but there's gonna

1323
01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:11,720
Speaker 1: be a like you said earlier, there's gonna be a

1324
01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:14,559
Speaker 1: different guy choosing what they run and when they run it.

1325
01:10:15,040 --> 01:10:18,840
Speaker 1: That's a vastly different look to an offense.

1326
01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:20,960
Speaker 2: We're going to go to the post practice podium. Bill's

1327
01:10:20,960 --> 01:10:23,439
Speaker 2: had to walk through practice today. Josh Allen is addressing

1328
01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:25,080
Speaker 2: the media. Let's see what he has to say about

1329
01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:28,679
Speaker 2: the change at offensive coordinator. Can you give us shush

1330
01:10:28,680 --> 01:10:32,200
Speaker 2: your thoughts on first Dorsey leaving and then obviously with

1331
01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:34,640
Speaker 2: Joe stepping in, and give us your thoughts on that.

1332
01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:38,680
Speaker 23: Yeah, obviously not a set of circumstances you want to

1333
01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:43,000
Speaker 23: be in, especially during the middle of the season. I

1334
01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:46,599
Speaker 23: love Dorsey as a human being. He's just he's one

1335
01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:48,559
Speaker 23: of the good ones. He's been in this room with

1336
01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:50,640
Speaker 23: me for a very long time. I feel like I

1337
01:10:50,680 --> 01:10:53,240
Speaker 23: owe him a lot of the success that I've had

1338
01:10:53,240 --> 01:10:55,320
Speaker 23: in my career, and he's been a huge part of that.

1339
01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 23: So It's sad to see him go. The fact is,

1340
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:03,040
Speaker 23: you know, we we played better as a team, we

1341
01:11:03,080 --> 01:11:05,439
Speaker 23: probably don't have to make a move like that. You know,

1342
01:11:05,560 --> 01:11:08,920
Speaker 23: he's he's a big part of what we've been doing

1343
01:11:08,960 --> 01:11:11,559
Speaker 23: here in the last few years. You know, I talked

1344
01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:14,879
Speaker 23: with coach McDermott, and I understand the thought process of

1345
01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:19,320
Speaker 23: of why we're doing it. It's unfortunate, but at the

1346
01:11:19,360 --> 01:11:22,040
Speaker 23: same time, we've got a game against a division rival

1347
01:11:22,040 --> 01:11:24,160
Speaker 23: on Sunday, and you know, we still have time to

1348
01:11:24,720 --> 01:11:26,519
Speaker 23: turn this thing around a difference.

1349
01:11:26,520 --> 01:11:28,120
Speaker 6: Do you feel like a move like this can.

1350
01:11:27,960 --> 01:11:34,360
Speaker 23: Make I mean, I honestly don't know. I haven't been

1351
01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:39,519
Speaker 23: in a situation like this, you know. And the crazy

1352
01:11:39,560 --> 01:11:42,360
Speaker 23: thing Joe was was that guy two years ago where

1353
01:11:42,400 --> 01:11:47,040
Speaker 23: he was, so he understands both sides of it. So again,

1354
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:48,880
Speaker 23: we just gotta we got to rally around each other

1355
01:11:48,960 --> 01:11:52,400
Speaker 23: right now. We have to come together as a team

1356
01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:54,519
Speaker 23: and offensively, we've got to play better football.

1357
01:11:54,840 --> 01:11:59,360
Speaker 9: Gosh, uh, Sean put an emphasis on confidence and energy,

1358
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:01,880
Speaker 9: knowing that you've got you know, this is a there's

1359
01:12:01,880 --> 01:12:03,400
Speaker 9: a bit of a personal blow. How do you get

1360
01:12:03,439 --> 01:12:07,679
Speaker 9: your energy up, get your confidence up, and and where

1361
01:12:07,720 --> 01:12:09,320
Speaker 9: do you find that Where do you drop when you

1362
01:12:09,360 --> 01:12:09,880
Speaker 9: get that up?

1363
01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:10,280
Speaker 6: Yeah?

1364
01:12:10,400 --> 01:12:13,160
Speaker 23: I find that one in this locker room too. The

1365
01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:15,479
Speaker 23: fact that we're five and five and our backs against

1366
01:12:15,520 --> 01:12:18,080
Speaker 23: the wall. You know, the clock's ticking on on what

1367
01:12:18,120 --> 01:12:20,559
Speaker 23: we can do this season, and it starts this Sunday

1368
01:12:20,600 --> 01:12:23,760
Speaker 23: to try to turn this thing around. You know, it's

1369
01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:27,200
Speaker 23: no secret in terms of how many wins you probably

1370
01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:29,519
Speaker 23: need to get into the playoffs. And no, we don't

1371
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:32,479
Speaker 23: got much much more wiggle room, so we understand that.

1372
01:12:33,439 --> 01:12:35,760
Speaker 23: But again, we can't focus on the next week, or

1373
01:12:35,760 --> 01:12:38,120
Speaker 23: the week after that, or never. We can't focus on

1374
01:12:38,120 --> 01:12:39,400
Speaker 23: the end of the season. We got to focus on

1375
01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:41,200
Speaker 23: the here and now, and that's that's Sunday against a

1376
01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:43,639
Speaker 23: team that's already beat us once this season, a team

1377
01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:46,240
Speaker 23: that you know, offensively, we we didn't play very well.

1378
01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:50,080
Speaker 23: I didn't play very well. So again we're looking forward

1379
01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:53,439
Speaker 23: to get out there and playing Buffalo Bill's football, the

1380
01:12:53,439 --> 01:12:55,559
Speaker 23: football that we know we can play. And I got

1381
01:12:55,560 --> 01:12:56,960
Speaker 23: a lot of faith in the guys in this room.

1382
01:12:56,960 --> 01:12:58,920
Speaker 23: I got a lot of faith in Joe. I got

1383
01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:00,639
Speaker 23: a lot of faith in myself. So we got to

1384
01:13:00,680 --> 01:13:02,000
Speaker 23: go out there put together our best ball.

1385
01:13:04,400 --> 01:13:07,840
Speaker 2: Is you mentioned a little bit feeling like if you

1386
01:13:07,880 --> 01:13:11,479
Speaker 2: guys had played better, Kendors would still have his job.

1387
01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:15,880
Speaker 23: I mean, that's that's without a doubt, you know, And

1388
01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:20,479
Speaker 23: I take that very personally, you know. I it hurts.

1389
01:13:20,600 --> 01:13:23,240
Speaker 23: It hurts a lot to see someone you care about

1390
01:13:25,800 --> 01:13:28,760
Speaker 23: go through a situation like that and to know that,

1391
01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:31,320
Speaker 23: you know, if I could have done more, if this

1392
01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:33,120
Speaker 23: offense could have done more, we wouldn't have had to

1393
01:13:33,160 --> 01:13:37,280
Speaker 23: do something like that. So again, it's an unfortunate series

1394
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:41,040
Speaker 23: of events that have led up to it. But again,

1395
01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:43,679
Speaker 23: like as much as you can sit here and feel

1396
01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:46,000
Speaker 23: sorry for yourself and you can sulk on what's going on,

1397
01:13:46,880 --> 01:13:49,120
Speaker 23: we got a game to prepare for and it's four

1398
01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:52,320
Speaker 23: days away, so we can't pay too much attention to it.

1399
01:13:52,360 --> 01:13:54,280
Speaker 23: We got to focus on what we can control, and

1400
01:13:54,320 --> 01:13:56,200
Speaker 23: that's our attitude and efforts every time we step on

1401
01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:58,960
Speaker 23: this field and practice and walk throughs and meetings and

1402
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:00,920
Speaker 23: make sure that we're going to be prepared to go

1403
01:14:00,960 --> 01:14:01,519
Speaker 23: come Sunday.

1404
01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:03,920
Speaker 22: Brady, isn't somebody well give the chance to talk to

1405
01:14:03,920 --> 01:14:04,320
Speaker 22: you a lot.

1406
01:14:04,400 --> 01:14:06,559
Speaker 1: What kind of person is he? What can you tell

1407
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:09,000
Speaker 1: us about Joe? And just as a as a guy,

1408
01:14:09,040 --> 01:14:10,160
Speaker 1: as a person yeah.

1409
01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:12,240
Speaker 23: I mean, he's got a lot of juice to him.

1410
01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:17,599
Speaker 23: You know, he formed a ballplayer himself, and I think

1411
01:14:17,600 --> 01:14:19,160
Speaker 23: that he can relate with a lot of the guys.

1412
01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:23,200
Speaker 23: Obviously he's a he's a fairly younger guy, but again,

1413
01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:27,360
Speaker 23: guy that's been around the league. He's been an offensive coordinator,

1414
01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:31,479
Speaker 23: he's in the league, he's been a national championship caller

1415
01:14:31,560 --> 01:14:34,400
Speaker 23: at the college level. So again, there's a lot of

1416
01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:36,040
Speaker 23: faith in him. He's been around a lot of football,

1417
01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:38,679
Speaker 23: He's learned a lot of really good coaches, and uh,

1418
01:14:39,120 --> 01:14:41,280
Speaker 23: you know, we're gonna have to utilize his knowledge going

1419
01:14:41,280 --> 01:14:42,599
Speaker 23: forward with him.

1420
01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:44,760
Speaker 16: What do you think how has he impacted you?

1421
01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:48,920
Speaker 6: Has it been more technical stuff or mental? So what's

1422
01:14:48,960 --> 01:14:49,599
Speaker 6: been the impact?

1423
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:52,920
Speaker 23: I guess I mean in terms of just how I prepare.

1424
01:14:53,080 --> 01:14:57,360
Speaker 23: You know, he's he's an extremely hard worker. You know,

1425
01:14:57,439 --> 01:14:59,840
Speaker 23: he's always in the building, first one in, last one out.

1426
01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:03,040
Speaker 23: I doubt he got any sleep last night, obviously, kind

1427
01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:06,080
Speaker 23: of being thrown into a role like this, and it's

1428
01:15:06,120 --> 01:15:11,800
Speaker 23: not a congratulations move, you know, he's he's he's in

1429
01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:14,679
Speaker 23: there because we didn't do our jobs and now we're,

1430
01:15:14,840 --> 01:15:17,840
Speaker 23: like I said, back against the wall, and he's ready

1431
01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:20,160
Speaker 23: to go in. He's prepared, and you know, we've got

1432
01:15:20,160 --> 01:15:21,840
Speaker 23: to follow his lead and make sure that we have

1433
01:15:21,920 --> 01:15:23,760
Speaker 23: his back camp.

1434
01:15:23,880 --> 01:15:25,920
Speaker 24: When when Ken got the job and you're talking about

1435
01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:27,880
Speaker 24: having a different voice in your ear and kind of

1436
01:15:27,920 --> 01:15:31,640
Speaker 24: getting used to that, is your relationship with Joe in

1437
01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:34,479
Speaker 24: a place where you're gonna be comfortable or is that

1438
01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:36,679
Speaker 24: something you guys will kind of work through as your.

1439
01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:40,000
Speaker 23: Wild I mean, we've got no choice but to be comfortable.

1440
01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:44,880
Speaker 23: But again, he's the same voice that we've we've heard

1441
01:15:44,920 --> 01:15:46,680
Speaker 23: in the quarterback room for the last year and a

1442
01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:49,439
Speaker 23: half now. There's a lot of talking that goes on

1443
01:15:49,439 --> 01:15:51,920
Speaker 23: in that room, So I'm pretty comfortable with his voice.

1444
01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:54,160
Speaker 25: She said, you know this move with the door snup

1445
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:56,840
Speaker 25: being anymore, it's personal. You know, how where does your

1446
01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:59,680
Speaker 25: confidence now with this offense and with what how you're

1447
01:15:59,720 --> 01:16:01,920
Speaker 25: playing like with this move? How does it affect you

1448
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:03,200
Speaker 25: and going forward.

1449
01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:05,160
Speaker 26: And how you play well?

1450
01:16:05,240 --> 01:16:05,439
Speaker 1: One?

1451
01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:08,080
Speaker 23: I mean, I gotta be better. We got a big

1452
01:16:08,200 --> 01:16:13,200
Speaker 23: better as an offense. Turnover wise, it's it's abysmal when

1453
01:16:13,240 --> 01:16:16,760
Speaker 23: we lose. There's no secret to that. So there's not

1454
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:21,200
Speaker 23: a whole lot like it's not like it's broken. We're

1455
01:16:21,200 --> 01:16:23,559
Speaker 23: not We're not a broken offense. We're not a broken team,

1456
01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:27,200
Speaker 23: but the splits that compared to when we win and

1457
01:16:27,439 --> 01:16:32,200
Speaker 23: when we lose are massive. And again, that's that's on

1458
01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:34,960
Speaker 23: my shoulders and we got to be better. I gotta

1459
01:16:34,960 --> 01:16:35,360
Speaker 23: be better.

1460
01:16:36,800 --> 01:16:38,320
Speaker 25: Like that's on your shoulders. But how do you not

1461
01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:40,400
Speaker 25: let that like crush you know, like, for lack of

1462
01:16:40,439 --> 01:16:41,960
Speaker 25: a better word, do you not let that pressure get

1463
01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:44,920
Speaker 25: too much? Because with this change and with how things

1464
01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:46,680
Speaker 25: have been going, like, how do you not let that

1465
01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:47,840
Speaker 25: affect you too much?

1466
01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:50,559
Speaker 23: And well, you rely on the guys in this locker room.

1467
01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:56,360
Speaker 23: You you lean on each other, you know, the it's

1468
01:16:56,400 --> 01:16:58,519
Speaker 23: how you get back up from being knocked down. And

1469
01:16:58,560 --> 01:17:00,840
Speaker 23: I think that this this SLocker room. There's been plenty

1470
01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:05,200
Speaker 23: of being knocked down and we've we've felt that, but

1471
01:17:05,320 --> 01:17:08,639
Speaker 23: again helping each other back up and pushing each other

1472
01:17:08,680 --> 01:17:12,679
Speaker 23: and making sure we're holding each other accountable for what's

1473
01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:15,559
Speaker 23: been going on and how he can be better moving forward.

1474
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:17,320
Speaker 23: And I think, you know, it takes a lot to

1475
01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:19,160
Speaker 23: look at yourself in the mirror and see what can

1476
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:22,000
Speaker 23: I do that's that's been good and what can I

1477
01:17:22,040 --> 01:17:25,720
Speaker 23: do to fix what's been bad? And that's what we

1478
01:17:25,760 --> 01:17:27,080
Speaker 23: all got to do you mention.

1479
01:17:27,400 --> 01:17:30,200
Speaker 9: You mentioned how much a self contained anger, I'm just

1480
01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:33,640
Speaker 9: angry at yourself or angry just that have a circumstance.

1481
01:17:33,720 --> 01:17:37,360
Speaker 23: It's just and it all depends on how the individual

1482
01:17:37,360 --> 01:17:40,000
Speaker 23: can use that anger. And sometimes it's it's for the benefit,

1483
01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:44,760
Speaker 23: sometimes it's not, and you know it's h I guess

1484
01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:45,320
Speaker 23: time will tell.

1485
01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:48,040
Speaker 24: When you mentioned how much Joe has on his plate

1486
01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:49,960
Speaker 24: this week, a short week, getting ready for everything.

1487
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:51,960
Speaker 2: Do you give more or less input to him on

1488
01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:52,479
Speaker 2: a week like this?

1489
01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:54,080
Speaker 23: I give him as much input as I can on

1490
01:17:54,240 --> 01:17:56,559
Speaker 23: my phone line is twenty four to seven when I'm

1491
01:17:56,560 --> 01:17:57,679
Speaker 23: at home, doesn't matter.

1492
01:17:58,680 --> 01:17:59,280
Speaker 6: I could be sleeping.

1493
01:17:59,320 --> 01:18:01,080
Speaker 23: If he calls me, pick up and make sure that

1494
01:18:01,479 --> 01:18:02,960
Speaker 23: you know we can get on the same page as.

1495
01:18:02,880 --> 01:18:06,799
Speaker 6: Quickly as possible. What's your favorite thing about Joe? His attitude.

1496
01:18:06,840 --> 01:18:09,960
Speaker 23: He's a very positive human being. Like I said, he's

1497
01:18:09,960 --> 01:18:15,800
Speaker 23: been through the ups and downs. So you know, just

1498
01:18:15,840 --> 01:18:18,000
Speaker 23: the energy and the jews that he can bring to

1499
01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:21,240
Speaker 23: our room and bring to the offense, and just the

1500
01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:23,800
Speaker 23: faith that he's gotten his guys, what.

1501
01:18:23,720 --> 01:18:29,080
Speaker 1: Can you do to tap into the guy who usually

1502
01:18:29,080 --> 01:18:29,439
Speaker 1: played like.

1503
01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:34,400
Speaker 6: Cameras wished to have.

1504
01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:38,960
Speaker 2: A choked up your ass mentality does seem to be

1505
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:39,679
Speaker 2: there as much.

1506
01:18:39,520 --> 01:18:40,840
Speaker 6: As how about.

1507
01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:44,840
Speaker 23: I mean, I think we all evolves as human beings,

1508
01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:47,760
Speaker 23: we all evolves as players in this league, and just

1509
01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:50,479
Speaker 23: trying to be the guy that you know, I feel

1510
01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:53,720
Speaker 23: is necessary to be to to lead this team. And

1511
01:18:53,720 --> 01:18:56,240
Speaker 23: I'm just trying to be myself and sometimes it calls

1512
01:18:56,240 --> 01:19:01,960
Speaker 23: for that, sometimes it doesn't. So uh, not quite sure.

1513
01:19:02,360 --> 01:19:04,800
Speaker 11: Gosh, the numbers are bad on offense, you guys are

1514
01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:06,679
Speaker 11: moving the ball and metrics are really good. It seems

1515
01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:10,360
Speaker 11: like it's a turnover here, a stall drive there at

1516
01:19:10,360 --> 01:19:13,080
Speaker 11: the end of the drive. Details that quite frankly, you

1517
01:19:13,080 --> 01:19:14,639
Speaker 11: guys have been pretty buttoned up on over the last

1518
01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:16,599
Speaker 11: few years. How do you get back to making sure

1519
01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:18,360
Speaker 11: those details get back to where they should be.

1520
01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:21,520
Speaker 23: Well, again, I think just making sure that we're communicating

1521
01:19:21,560 --> 01:19:26,160
Speaker 23: as an offense, tightenings and things down, you know, making

1522
01:19:26,160 --> 01:19:28,720
Speaker 23: sure that we understand the assignment that we're given. And

1523
01:19:28,760 --> 01:19:31,200
Speaker 23: again that starts with me. It starts with Joe, now

1524
01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:34,120
Speaker 23: me being an extension of what he's calling and trying

1525
01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:35,800
Speaker 23: to go out there and execute to our to the

1526
01:19:35,840 --> 01:19:39,120
Speaker 23: best of our abilities, and again not getting bored with

1527
01:19:39,160 --> 01:19:42,360
Speaker 23: the stuff underneath and making sure again, like I said,

1528
01:19:42,360 --> 01:19:47,200
Speaker 23: the turnovers that we've had and our losses, it just

1529
01:19:47,240 --> 01:19:49,400
Speaker 23: can't can't have a lot of them. You know, we

1530
01:19:49,400 --> 01:19:52,479
Speaker 23: can overcome one, maybe two because how our how get

1531
01:19:52,479 --> 01:19:56,519
Speaker 23: our defense plays, and you know we've been in games

1532
01:19:56,520 --> 01:19:58,240
Speaker 23: and again we've lost five games. But I think I

1533
01:19:58,280 --> 01:20:01,599
Speaker 23: combined twenty three points. So that's one drive. That's one

1534
01:20:02,320 --> 01:20:04,040
Speaker 23: less drive if we didn't have a ton over. Who

1535
01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:06,120
Speaker 23: knows if we end up with three or six that drive.

1536
01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:09,439
Speaker 23: But you know, we're limiting our own opportunities. We're hurting

1537
01:20:09,439 --> 01:20:13,280
Speaker 23: ourselves and we're not putting ourselves in great positions to

1538
01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:16,280
Speaker 23: win football games. And we're asking too much of each other.

1539
01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:19,200
Speaker 23: We're making things very hard for ourselves when things don't

1540
01:20:19,200 --> 01:20:21,040
Speaker 23: have to be that way. If we tighten some things up,

1541
01:20:21,080 --> 01:20:22,599
Speaker 23: and you know, that's what we plan on doing.

1542
01:20:24,040 --> 01:20:24,400
Speaker 6: Thank guys.

1543
01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:27,880

01:21:47,360 --> 01:21:50,160
Speaker 2: now where von Miller is addressing the media.

1565
01:21:51,560 --> 01:21:53,200
Speaker 11: When I know it's the other side of the ball,

1566
01:21:53,400 --> 01:21:55,439
Speaker 11: but if you're a vetcher and you're leader in locker room,

1567
01:21:55,439 --> 01:21:57,240
Speaker 11: you've been through things like this. I guess in your

1568
01:21:57,280 --> 01:22:00,880
Speaker 11: career the coordinator changing can you do to kind of

1569
01:22:01,439 --> 01:22:03,840
Speaker 11: maybe help out talk to guys like what the feeling

1570
01:22:03,880 --> 01:22:05,160
Speaker 11: and locker room is, what your role could be.

1571
01:22:06,680 --> 01:22:08,840
Speaker 27: I think when we when I really look at it,

1572
01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:10,720
Speaker 27: from the teams that I've been on, the situations that

1573
01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:14,960
Speaker 27: I've been in, I mean, we we damn.

1574
01:22:14,720 --> 01:22:17,080
Speaker 6: Lucky to have a quarterback like Josh Allen.

1575
01:22:17,640 --> 01:22:22,479
Speaker 27: And you know, all quarterbacks struggle, and at some point

1576
01:22:22,520 --> 01:22:24,559
Speaker 27: in their career they struggle. They have hard times, and

1577
01:22:24,880 --> 01:22:27,240
Speaker 27: that always looks the same whether it's a turnover, a pick,

1578
01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:31,680
Speaker 27: or this misplay or a sack here or you know, uh,

1579
01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:35,840
Speaker 27: a WTF moment from the quarterback position. But I think

1580
01:22:37,160 --> 01:22:40,360
Speaker 27: the max level for Josh Allen, which he's played at

1581
01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:43,120
Speaker 27: multiple times, is like nothing that I've ever seen before.

1582
01:22:43,200 --> 01:22:46,800
Speaker 27: When he sits back there and he has his target

1583
01:22:47,080 --> 01:22:49,280
Speaker 27: or he's trying to make something happen and he connects,

1584
01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:54,280
Speaker 27: like his ceiling is higher than any other quarterback that

1585
01:22:54,280 --> 01:22:54,880
Speaker 27: I've been around.

1586
01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:56,559
Speaker 6: And I've been around some great ones. I've played with

1587
01:22:56,600 --> 01:22:57,240
Speaker 6: some great ones.

1588
01:22:58,120 --> 01:23:00,280
Speaker 27: All the struggles and all the hard times through all

1589
01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:02,160
Speaker 27: the good quarterbacks that I've been wrung. It all kind

1590
01:23:02,200 --> 01:23:06,360
Speaker 27: of looks the same, and you know that's a that's

1591
01:23:06,400 --> 01:23:08,080
Speaker 27: a good spot to that's a good spot to being.

1592
01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:12,639
Speaker 6: And like you know, I explained to some of the guys.

1593
01:23:12,479 --> 01:23:15,600
Speaker 27: Earlier, like despite what, despite what it looked like, we

1594
01:23:15,680 --> 01:23:22,640
Speaker 27: are still very close. You know, throw the ball, uh

1595
01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:26,320
Speaker 27: drop pass turns into an interception, uh fumble on the

1596
01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:29,040
Speaker 27: first play the game at the very very end of

1597
01:23:29,040 --> 01:23:33,000
Speaker 27: the play, like we are. We are very very close.

1598
01:23:33,040 --> 01:23:36,760
Speaker 27: So I don't think it's time to start over correcting.

1599
01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:39,599
Speaker 27: You know, obviously, once you start over correcting and you start, okay,

1600
01:23:39,680 --> 01:23:42,920
Speaker 27: let's change this change, you kind of lose your compass

1601
01:23:42,960 --> 01:23:45,160
Speaker 27: of what we do well and where we're trying to go.

1602
01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:50,120
Speaker 27: And it's definitely not time to do that. We lost

1603
01:23:50,120 --> 01:23:53,760
Speaker 27: five games, We've won five games. You know, I know

1604
01:23:53,800 --> 01:23:56,519
Speaker 27: it's cliche, but we are still in control of.

1605
01:23:56,520 --> 01:23:58,120
Speaker 6: All the things that we really want to do.

1606
01:23:58,160 --> 01:24:00,120
Speaker 27: We still play all the big dogs coming up, and

1607
01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:02,559
Speaker 27: you know, I still believe in this team. I still

1608
01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:05,280
Speaker 27: believe in the defense, offense, special teams. And you know,

1609
01:24:05,280 --> 01:24:06,880
Speaker 27: I wouldn't want to have any other way. I wouldn't

1610
01:24:06,880 --> 01:24:09,600
Speaker 27: want to have any other quarterback. You know quarterback and

1611
01:24:09,640 --> 01:24:11,960
Speaker 27: his team other than Josh Allen, even if I could

1612
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:14,400
Speaker 27: trade in and get another quarterback around the league, Like,

1613
01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:17,320
Speaker 27: I just believe in Josh Allen and what he can

1614
01:24:17,360 --> 01:24:18,720
Speaker 27: do in his ceiling.

1615
01:24:19,840 --> 01:24:22,320
Speaker 6: More than any other quarterback that I've ever been around.

1616
01:24:22,360 --> 01:24:26,680
Speaker 11: So it wasn't significant change. So I mean, that's it's

1617
01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:29,320
Speaker 11: not necessarily how do you how do you navigate through

1618
01:24:29,320 --> 01:24:31,920
Speaker 11: that as a leader on the team when that's not

1619
01:24:32,200 --> 01:24:33,639
Speaker 11: commonplace around here the last.

1620
01:24:33,479 --> 01:24:37,080
Speaker 27: Few years, you know, I mean it's it's very unfortunate

1621
01:24:38,360 --> 01:24:41,800
Speaker 27: because Dorcy has a family here and you know, he's

1622
01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:46,560
Speaker 27: investing in his team.

1623
01:24:44,600 --> 01:24:46,080
Speaker 6: You know, and that is at his base level.

1624
01:24:46,120 --> 01:24:48,800
Speaker 27: I mean, just for me looking at it from the

1625
01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:51,680
Speaker 27: defensive side of the ball, like, it's not you know,

1626
01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:55,080
Speaker 27: it's not the it wasn't all the offensive coordinator's fault.

1627
01:24:55,120 --> 01:24:57,559
Speaker 6: I just I can say that it wasn't fundling on.

1628
01:24:57,479 --> 01:25:01,000
Speaker 27: The first play of the game, which is uncharacteristics for cookies.

1629
01:25:01,040 --> 01:25:05,479
Speaker 27: It's not Dorsey's fault. Past he the guy caught the past,

1630
01:25:05,560 --> 01:25:08,200
Speaker 27: dropped the past. It turns into an interception like that

1631
01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:11,080
Speaker 27: was a great play, that was a great decision. It's

1632
01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:13,320
Speaker 27: just you know, but at the end of the day.

1633
01:25:13,840 --> 01:25:16,600
Speaker 27: This is a business and somebody has, you know, to

1634
01:25:16,680 --> 01:25:19,479
Speaker 27: take you know, fault for it, whether it be his

1635
01:25:19,560 --> 01:25:21,680
Speaker 27: fault or not. It's just that's just how that's just

1636
01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:26,000
Speaker 27: how it goes. I've been a victim of it. I've

1637
01:25:26,040 --> 01:25:28,599
Speaker 27: been in that situation before. I've had moments like that

1638
01:25:28,600 --> 01:25:31,439
Speaker 27: where it's not necessarily you know, my fault. But at

1639
01:25:31,479 --> 01:25:33,760
Speaker 27: the end of the day, somebody has to take the

1640
01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:36,160
Speaker 27: billion for it. So that's just part of our that's

1641
01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:38,439
Speaker 27: just part of our league, and it's just part of

1642
01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:42,200
Speaker 27: the business. Is very unfortunate for for Dorsey and you

1643
01:25:42,240 --> 01:25:43,720
Speaker 27: know all the things that he that he's had going

1644
01:25:43,760 --> 01:25:45,639
Speaker 27: for this team. He's committed to this team, he invested

1645
01:25:45,680 --> 01:25:49,640
Speaker 27: in his team, and you know, it's it's just unfortunate

1646
01:25:49,720 --> 01:25:50,080
Speaker 27: for sure.

1647
01:25:51,080 --> 01:25:51,439
Speaker 6: All Right.

1648
01:25:51,520 --> 01:25:54,519
Speaker 2: That's von Miller addressing what took place on the offensive

1649
01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:58,759
Speaker 2: side of the ball, probably not completely in his department,

1650
01:25:58,840 --> 01:26:02,559
Speaker 2: but asked away in it and did and pretty telling

1651
01:26:02,600 --> 01:26:04,479
Speaker 2: what he said about Josh Allen still believes he has

1652
01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:06,960
Speaker 2: the highest ceiling of any quarterback in the league and

1653
01:26:07,080 --> 01:26:09,840
Speaker 2: believes he can get back there in short order. We

1654
01:26:09,920 --> 01:26:11,439
Speaker 2: have to take a break here. When we come back

1655
01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:13,720
Speaker 2: step and I close it up on One Bill's Live

1656
01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:14,880
Speaker 2: presented by Kalida Health.

1657
01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:29,400
Speaker 26: It's Buffalo Bills Radio.

1658
01:26:31,760 --> 01:26:34,639
Speaker 2: Some final thoughts on the sweetsheet here from you, as

1659
01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:37,960
Speaker 2: we have been asking you today, how difficult do you

1660
01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:40,800
Speaker 2: think it will be for Joe Brady to turn the

1661
01:26:40,800 --> 01:26:44,960
Speaker 2: Bill's offense around? And we were up to Bill's News

1662
01:26:44,960 --> 01:26:47,760
Speaker 2: consolid Data who says transitioning from quarterback coach to OC

1663
01:26:47,920 --> 01:26:50,840
Speaker 2: demands a shift from a player focused task to strategic planning,

1664
01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:54,880
Speaker 2: communication and leadership. Analyzing opponents, creating effective game plans, and

1665
01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:58,879
Speaker 2: adjusting strategies during games require a deep understanding of offensive

1666
01:26:58,920 --> 01:27:02,360
Speaker 2: and defensive dynamics. I guess that's a long way of

1667
01:27:02,400 --> 01:27:05,600
Speaker 2: saying there's a lot to do. Rick says time is

1668
01:27:05,640 --> 01:27:08,599
Speaker 2: a major factor. The bye week can't come fast enough.

1669
01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:11,360
Speaker 2: I guess he feels like things will have to be righted.

1670
01:27:11,400 --> 01:27:13,400
Speaker 2: Then it's probably too late at that.

1671
01:27:13,320 --> 01:27:16,479
Speaker 1: Point, too late week thirteen, by too later. If you're

1672
01:27:16,720 --> 01:27:19,760
Speaker 1: floundering and you got to make significant changes, it's too late.

1673
01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:23,120
Speaker 1: You've you've got to win the next couple of one

1674
01:27:23,120 --> 01:27:24,800
Speaker 1: of these two. You got to stay five hundred at

1675
01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:28,519
Speaker 1: least by then, And then if you're still floundering, there

1676
01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:32,200
Speaker 1: after these next two games. Now you got to start

1677
01:27:32,280 --> 01:27:35,160
Speaker 1: scoreboard watching, yeah, you know, and then that's that's no

1678
01:27:35,240 --> 01:27:35,680
Speaker 1: place to be.

1679
01:27:36,040 --> 01:27:38,760
Speaker 2: Let's squeeze in Eric in Rochester here, what do you

1680
01:27:38,760 --> 01:27:39,160
Speaker 2: got first?

1681
01:27:39,240 --> 01:27:39,439
Speaker 1: Eric?

1682
01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:42,160
Speaker 15: Hey, guys, I don't want to stay first of all,

1683
01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:44,000
Speaker 15: like I'm a Dolphins fan, but I've learned to really

1684
01:27:44,080 --> 01:27:47,759
Speaker 15: like this, like this show and appreciate you guys's passion

1685
01:27:47,840 --> 01:27:51,160
Speaker 15: for the Bills. I don't dislike the Bills, but you

1686
01:27:51,240 --> 01:27:54,760
Speaker 15: guys have like helped me appreciate the Bills a bit more.

1687
01:27:54,840 --> 01:27:58,200
Speaker 15: Let me say that first. And you know, I was

1688
01:27:58,240 --> 01:28:01,120
Speaker 15: just thinking, you know, there's a lot made of the

1689
01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:05,040
Speaker 15: Dolphins scoring to seventy points against the Broncos. That was

1690
01:28:05,120 --> 01:28:08,800
Speaker 15: very dismissive. But Steve, you know, like a win is

1691
01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:11,080
Speaker 15: a win in the National Football League, and it comes

1692
01:28:11,080 --> 01:28:13,400
Speaker 15: down to like beating teams that you're supposed to be

1693
01:28:14,160 --> 01:28:19,439
Speaker 15: And I do personally like hope for Western New York

1694
01:28:19,720 --> 01:28:22,559
Speaker 15: that the Bills turn around. I still want the Dolphins

1695
01:28:22,560 --> 01:28:25,960
Speaker 15: to win the AFC East, of course, but I do

1696
01:28:26,080 --> 01:28:29,559
Speaker 15: hope because there's nothing to not love about Josh Allen,

1697
01:28:29,720 --> 01:28:32,720
Speaker 15: Like you cannot love that kid, and I hope the

1698
01:28:32,760 --> 01:28:33,920
Speaker 15: team can turn it around.

1699
01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:36,200
Speaker 2: Thanks guys, all right, thanks Eric, appreciate the call. I'm

1700
01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:38,599
Speaker 2: gonna squeeze Mike in Buffalo in too here. We got Mike.

1701
01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:40,320
Speaker 16: How you doing.

1702
01:28:41,040 --> 01:28:43,439
Speaker 28: I don't know if everybody watched the same game I did.

1703
01:28:43,479 --> 01:28:46,519
Speaker 28: We lost because the punt team couldn't cover a punt

1704
01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:48,639
Speaker 28: in our field position all game long.

1705
01:28:48,800 --> 01:28:49,480
Speaker 21: Was horrible.

1706
01:28:49,640 --> 01:28:54,040
Speaker 28: Yeah, and Dave Davis can't get open and catch. If

1707
01:28:54,080 --> 01:28:58,439
Speaker 28: you watch the Raiders Jets game, Davante Adams was wide

1708
01:28:58,520 --> 01:29:02,040
Speaker 28: open every single play and Garoppolo couldn't get the ball

1709
01:29:02,080 --> 01:29:05,280
Speaker 28: anywhere near him. Shosh Allen needs the number two wide

1710
01:29:05,280 --> 01:29:08,000
Speaker 28: receiver and we will put up thirty five points or

1711
01:29:08,120 --> 01:29:10,839
Speaker 28: more a game. And the defense, the way it's playing

1712
01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:14,439
Speaker 28: is perfectly fine. That we've had all of our injuries

1713
01:29:14,479 --> 01:29:17,920
Speaker 28: around defense and we're still keeping opponents under twenty one points.

1714
01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:20,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm surery Mike. I gotta let you go here

1715
01:29:20,200 --> 01:29:22,040
Speaker 2: because we're out of time. But I get what you're saying.

1716
01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:22,840
Speaker 1: Good call.

1717
01:29:23,280 --> 01:29:25,559
Speaker 2: I mean, field position has been an issue on special teams,

1718
01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:27,799
Speaker 2: there's no question about it, and it's impacted the offense

1719
01:29:27,840 --> 01:29:30,400
Speaker 2: and the defense. That's it for us today. We'll catch

1720
01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:32,000
Speaker 2: you tomorrow at one. Thanks for listening,
