1
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: At a Steve Tasker who has been all over the fields.

2
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: Kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role

3
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: player for State. Steve a blimp. We're not even in

4
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:24,920
Speaker 1: the strated beer of normalcy. All right, here we go,

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: let's get it rolling on a Tuesday. Chris Brown, Maddi

6
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: clab with you, she's in for Steve Tasker and uh.

7
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: We slowly turned the page to Week three, Washington on

8
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 1: the docket, but not before there are some players on

9
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 1: the Bill's roster that are getting some notoriety for their

10
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: exploits in last week's game, most notably the defense Maddie

11
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 1: deservedly so. Um. But before we get to that man,

12
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 1: last night, the weather, my god, it was perfect, Like

13
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: you could have gone out at like nine thirty ten pm.

14
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: It was one of those like sleep outside nights. That's

15
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 1: what's the I love the weather this timing year when

16
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: it gets like that, And of course come later in

17
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 1: the week, it's going to be a bear and it's

18
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 1: going to completely flip over the rain and everything. But

19
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: did you get outside last night? It was unbelievable. I did.

20
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: I actually went for a walk around seven thirty and

21
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: it was the first time I stepped outside because I'm

22
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: doing the chauffeur from home right now, and so I

23
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: stepped outside and I was like, oh my gosh, it

24
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: feels so nice and warm outside. So went for a walk,

25
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 1: took advantage of that, and then while I was walking,

26
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: was thinking like, this is probably one of the last

27
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: nice weather nights that we're going to get before the

28
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: weather starts to turn a little bit cold. So trying

29
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: to take advantage, squeeze every ounce of the weather that

30
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: we're going to get this week out of it that

31
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: we can, because fall is coming. Yeah, I mean at

32
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: least in terms of being able to walk outside in

33
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: shorts and a T shirt. I mean, those days aren't numbered,

34
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: as we well know. And as I said, there's some

35
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: front coming across the country and it's gonna blowing all

36
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: kinds of rain and then everything's dropping into the sixties

37
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: and fifties and hopefully hopefully not lower than that. I'm

38
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: known if I'm ready yet, but it's coming. But yeah,

39
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 1: and I've got another story to tell about something that

40
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: happened to me last night, but I'm gonna save it

41
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: for the second hour of our show. And we have

42
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: Kyle Branton because there's a tie in there that's worth

43
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 1: waiting on, so we'll get to that in the second

44
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: hour of the show. Yes, Kyle Brandt back for another

45
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 1: season with us here on one Bills Live on Tuesdays,

46
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: so we look forward to speaking with him in the

47
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: second hour of the show. He just wrapped up his

48
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: angry Run segment this week, and he had a reason

49
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 1: why Zach Moss's angry run for a touchdown at the

50
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 1: end of the game on Sunday was disqualified from the competition,

51
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: so we can get into that with him as well.

52
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: But you look at the Bills defense and what they

53
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: were able to do with their pass rush, Maddie Cynthia

54
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: Freelance covering him on her defensive next Gen stats piece.

55
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: We've got him in the weekly release this week because

56
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 1: aj Epinessa had nine quarter back pressures in one game.

57
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: But you know what went by the board the fact

58
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: that Greg Russeau had seven quarterback pressures with two sacks,

59
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: and then Matt Milano, who I know you and I

60
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: mentioned yesterday for his performance in the game, had six

61
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: quarterback pressures and they were like three other guys with

62
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: at least four, And I guess to sum it up, quarterback.

63
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: Pressures count as hurrying the quarterback, hitting the quarterback, or

64
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: sacking the quarterback. So pretty good. Oh no, I don't

65
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: think it counts sacks. It counts hits and hurries. But yeah,

66
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: because Russeau had seven pressures in two sacks. But you

67
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: want to talk about a total team effort. And I

68
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: know you listened to the coordinators yesterday when they addressed

69
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: the media. Anything that stood out for you from coach

70
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: Frasier about the defensive performance. I think one thing that's

71
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: stood out to me, And I'll go back to right

72
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: after the game when Sean McDermott was asked about the

73
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: defensive line performance. Sean McDermott. We know how he is

74
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: and we know how he talks, and he's usually not

75
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: one till really praise a position group because of course

76
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: there's always things that can be done to make them better.

77
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: And he was asked about, you know, this group had

78
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: six sacks. What did you think? And they tied it

79
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: to the comment that he said going into the season

80
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: of this group has been talked about enough. They just

81
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: need to go out there and work. And so when

82
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 1: they had six sacks, he said, yeah, that was a

83
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: good number. I liked what they did. So just to

84
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: get the praise of your head coach like that, after

85
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: he said enough has been said about them, they just

86
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 1: need to actually go out there and do the work.

87
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: I think meant a lot coming from your head coach

88
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: and Leslie Fraser at one thing that stood out to me.

89
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 1: He was asking, you know, was this team really about

90
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: this game plan this week? Did they really like the

91
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: game plan heading into the Miami Dolphins game? And I

92
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: like that he said, you know, by Thursday, I could

93
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: I could tell that our guys had a really good

94
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: handle on the game plan. And he said, you know,

95
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 1: we always have a good game plan to go against

96
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: whatever type of offense we're going to face. But the

97
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 1: thing was in this case was that we executed in

98
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: almost every facet of the game plan. The blitzes that

99
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 1: were dialed up from your corners, from your safeties, from

100
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: your linebackers. Those guys hit on their blitzes and we're

101
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 1: able to affect the quarterback. That doesn't happen every single game.

102
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: So I think a lot went right in terms of

103
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: the game plan that they had, and it turned into

104
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 1: a game that a lot of the defensive players loved

105
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 1: to play. In because they executed on so many levels

106
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: of that game plan that was in place. Yeah, and

107
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: we will hear from coach Frazier as well as Brian Dable,

108
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: both of whom addressed the media after we went off

109
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: the air late yesterday afternoon, So we'll get you some

110
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,799
Speaker 1: of their comments, including a very interesting comment from coach

111
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: Dable on Josh Allen and how critically is of his

112
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 1: own play that I thought was very interesting. So we'll

113
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,159
Speaker 1: have all that for you in the next segment, probably

114
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: about minutes or so from now, and we'll bring those

115
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 1: two you at that point in time. There's a couple

116
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 1: of interesting news and notes around the NFL, Maddie. First

117
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: of all, Tyrod Taylor officially out for Houston's Thursday night

118
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: game against Carolina, So it's gonna be rookie Davis Mills,

119
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: the Stanford product who was going to start for them.

120
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: He came on in relief last week. But the quarterback

121
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: injuries are already racking up in the league. And I

122
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,840
Speaker 1: just saw today that Ben Roethlisberger, Mike Tomlin revealed has

123
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: a left pectoral muscle injury, and he said it is

124
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: going to affect Ben's preparation for the week, which probably

125
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 1: means he's going to miss some practice time between Wednesday,

126
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: Thursday and Friday. Who knows when or if he'll be limited,

127
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: But that's notable. You know, you look at the Steelers.

128
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: The Bills played him week one when they were fresh

129
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 1: as a daisy. It's two weeks later and they're like

130
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 1: a mash unit. T J. Watt's got a groin injury.

131
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: Ben's now got a peck injury. The sea he was

132
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 1: playing the Steelers after the first month of the season,

133
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: that's when their easiest to beat. Yeah, you have a

134
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: quarterback in Ben Roethlisberger who is nearing the end of

135
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: his career. This could be his last season in the NFL.

136
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: We know he was out with an injury in years

137
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: prior where he missed the entire season. He's not a

138
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: quarterback who's going to be as a lethal I guess

139
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: in terms of what he can take on from injuries

140
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: as a guy like Josh Allen or some of your

141
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: younger quarterbacks. And I remember watching our Dolphins game this

142
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: past week and I was getting updates as our game

143
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: was going on, like t J. Watt is now questionable

144
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: to return or t J. Watt just got injured. I'm

145
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: thinking if this would have only happened, I don't want

146
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: players to get injured, but you know, t J. Watt

147
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: comes out of the game, your chances to have some

148
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: drives and score or get in the red zone, whatever,

149
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: they increase when a guy like that comes out of

150
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: a game. Yeah, Packers Lions was the Monday night game,

151
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 1: as we all know, won by the Packers as they

152
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 1: turned it on in the second half and when going

153
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: away thirty five to seventeen. Did you watch any of

154
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: the Manning cast Maddie between Eli and Peyton. Yes, I did.

155
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: I actually turned it on because I didn't watch it

156
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: last week, so I wanted to check it out hear

157
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 1: what they were all about. I tuned in when Gronk

158
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: was on with them and a little bit for Brett

159
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: Farve and Gronk was just hilarious. I think Peyton teed

160
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: him up to like a play that had just happened

161
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 1: on the field, and Gronk wasn't paying attention at all

162
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: to what play had just happened. He was like, so, Gronk,

163
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: what did you think about that? The way they kind

164
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 1: of dialed it up for a tight end or whatever.

165
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: He was saying, and Gronk was like, oh, yeah, that

166
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: was beautiful, just a wonderful play. Really like that play.

167
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 1: And Peyton was like, Gronk, that was just the best

168
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 1: way to break down what I just through to you.

169
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: So thanks for paying attention to what I'm trying to say. Yeah,

170
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: he basically said, ELI take it from here. After that

171
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: scintillating analysis from Gronk, Gronk, You've got a great future.

172
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: And then Gronk's like, oh no, I don't want to

173
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: do it. I don't want to be an analyst. I

174
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: just want to be on the pregame or the postgame desk,

175
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: you know, say a couple of comments and then be

176
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: done and watch the game. I was like, holy cow.

177
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 1: And the other thing that shocked me was they asked

178
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 1: him point blank do you watch film or He said

179
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 1: that he was talking to Cameron Brad, his teammate tight

180
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: end to Tampa, and Cameron Brad asked him do you

181
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: watch film? And he said, I've never watched film. I

182
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 1: just go out and play the game. Now, I don't

183
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 1: know if I completely believe that, but I'm just thinking

184
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: of the conversation. Okay between Cameron Brad, who was a

185
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 1: Harvard graduate and Gronk, who is probably the antithesis of

186
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: IVY League. Nothing against University Arizona, but holy cow, like,

187
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,199
Speaker 1: never watch tape. I don't know if I believe that completely.

188
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: I almost wonder if Gronk is just being dumb like

189
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: a fox, you know what I mean? Yeah, I mean,

190
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: I don't know. You gotta watch tape when you're in meetings.

191
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: So he definitely does watch tape, but honestly on his

192
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 1: own time. At this point in his career, when he

193
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: took a year hiatus off of football, I would not

194
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: be shocked if he doesn't really turn on any tape

195
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 1: on his own time, and that Brady just tosses him

196
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: the rock sometimes. I mean, he had a great game

197
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 1: this week. But Gronk doesn't strike me as the guy

198
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 1: who's gonna spend a lot of time looking at film

199
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 1: dissecting the opponent, spending all of his free time doing that.

200
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: Gronk is the type of guy's like, all right, I'm

201
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 1: gonna do my team meetings, I'm gonna do my positional meetings,

202
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: and then I'm gonna, you know, have my free time

203
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: at night to do whatever I want to do. Gronk

204
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: is like a social butterfly. To me, I don't know him,

205
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: but that's kind of how I look at him as

206
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 1: a maybe social butterfly, as guys that like to do

207
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: stuff during the week or whatever, don't watch as much takee.

208
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: I just see him. Yeah, I'm never gonna accuse him

209
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 1: of overthinking a player or anything. I'm just gonna go

210
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: out and play. And he's so physically gifted that more

211
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: often than not, that's probably worked very well for him

212
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 1: in his very lengthy career. We mentioned some Bill's defensive

213
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: players getting some recognition. I mentioned a few. Greg Rousseau

214
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: also is up for NFL Rookie of the Week for

215
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 1: his performance in Week two, which included the first two

216
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 1: sacks of his NFL career. It's going up against some

217
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: decent competition here, though, Maddie. Here's the pool, Okay, so

218
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: let me know what you think. Adafe Oway who had

219
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: the big fumble, forced fumble and fumble recovery to kind

220
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: of seal the win over Kansas City for Baltimore. Najie Harris,

221
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 1: who we know had the angry run of the week

222
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: and kind of carried the Steeler's offense in a loss.

223
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: Rondel Moore the Arizona Cardinals receiver who was wide open

224
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: go ahead touchdown for Arizona's comeback win over Minnesota. Peyton

225
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: Turner the defensive end for New Orleans and I'm not

226
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: going to pretend to know what he did this past week,

227
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,679
Speaker 1: but he's on the list, and then the Chargers rookie

228
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: corner Asante Samuel Junior. So I think he's got a

229
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: good look at this. Certainly probably made the singular play

230
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: of the week among this group, but in terms of

231
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: start to finish performance, I think Russo has got a

232
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: good shot at this. I think he does too. I

233
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: mean two sacks, he was a part of the entire game,

234
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: played the most snaps out of the defensive line, and

235
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 1: affected the game in a good way for the Bills.

236
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, I was watching the game with OA and

237
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: I saw both of those plays that he made. So

238
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 1: I think he had some tough contenders to go up

239
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: against this week because you listed some pretty good performers

240
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: from week two. We'll have to see if he wins

241
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: this week. If he doesn't win this week, I'm thinking

242
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: he'll get it another week because if he's playing the

243
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: way he is through two weeks of the season, He's

244
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,839
Speaker 1: just going to keep getting better. Here is the great

245
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 1: equalizer for Rousseau and maybe an advantage that is an

246
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: award that is voted on by fans. So Bills fans,

247
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: you can go to Buffalo Bills dot com. There is

248
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: a link there on the Greg Rousseau story as to

249
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 1: where you can go to vote for him for Rookie

250
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 1: of the Week for his performance in Week two, two sacks,

251
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: five tackles, including I think two for loss. He also

252
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: had seven quarterback pressures, so good for him on that. Tua,

253
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 1: who as we know, left the game early, is still

254
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: being listed as day to day after the hitt he

255
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 1: took from a JP Andesa. Bruised ribs, no cartilage damage,

256
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: no broken ribs, thankfully for him. But anybody that's had

257
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 1: a rib injury, they're going to be sore for quite

258
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: some time. And do you want to bowse him to

259
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: future hits? Knowing how troublesome the play and consistency of

260
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: his offensive line has been through the first two weeks,

261
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: I think you got to you probably gotta go with

262
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,199
Speaker 1: Brissette this week because they're going against a Raiders defensive

263
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: front that has been very impressive through the first two

264
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: weeks and not to mention they're playing on the road

265
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: where crowd noise is going to be an issue. Maybe

266
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 1: they don't hear the snap count, silent count confusion. I mean,

267
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: it could happen. So man, I don't know, I'd be

268
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: going with Brissette this week. Yeah, I think I'd stick

269
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: with Brissette too. I feel bad for two it because

270
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: he's someone who early on in his career, people are

271
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 1: questioning his toughness and questioning if he's made out for

272
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 1: the NFL with how he can sustain hits and things

273
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: like that, because now he has the rib injury. He

274
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: had that big injury in college football. So I just

275
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: feel bad that early on in his career people are

276
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: wondering if he's tough enough to play in the sport.

277
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 1: And I know his head coach had to stick up

278
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: for him. I'm flores and saying, you know, this kid

279
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: is tough enough. He's just been dealing with some unfortunate

280
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: circumstances with injuries. But he's making these injuries up. These

281
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: are actually real and this is you know why he's out.

282
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: So hopefully he can get back to it and get

283
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: back in the game at some point early on in

284
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: this season. Okay, so that's that. There was one other

285
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: tiny note to mention. Indeed, Kant Kabala was reporting that

286
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: free agent defensive end Taco Charlton is in Pittsburgh today.

287
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: He's taking a physical. Provided he passes, it's expected that

288
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: he is going to be signed to the Steelers practice squad.

289
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 1: So some veteran insurance for them, I guess in the

290
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: event that t J. Watt can't come back from that

291
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: groin injury and play this week for them. Want to

292
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 1: get into the Twitter conversation that we're going to have

293
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: today for the next couple of hours. Should the Bills

294
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: continue to employ a more balanced attack with their offense?

295
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 1: We saw it was virtually fifty fifty last week Maddie

296
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 1: thirty three passes thirty runs, and it was effective and

297
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 1: the run game kind of helped make up for maybe

298
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: some inconsistencies in the passing game. So we'd like to

299
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: know from you eight oh three oh five fifty one

300
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: eighty eight five fifty two five fifty what do you

301
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 1: think about the Bills more balanced attack with their offense

302
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: this past week and should it continue? You can also

303
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: hit us up on the tweet sheet at one Bills Live.

304
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 1: It's a simply asked or no question. If you want

305
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: to throw in why we'll take that as well. What

306
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: did you think first of all, of the balanced attack, Maddie,

307
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: and then second, where do you think it should go

308
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: from here? I like that they're trying a more balanced attack,

309
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: and I know every time our offensive coordinator Brian day

310
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: Ball is asked about the balance of this offense and

311
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: if it's going to be a balanced offense or if

312
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: they're going to pass the ball more, he always goes

313
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: back to it depends on the game plan. It depends

314
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 1: on the defense we're facing. If we're going to face

315
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,120
Speaker 1: a defense with a really strong defense upfront, maybe that's

316
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 1: not the case. Maybe we're going to be more of

317
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,360
Speaker 1: an air raid offense that game. So I know it's

318
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 1: really game to game, but I like the fact that

319
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 1: early on in the season, this run game is looking

320
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 1: better than it did last season. Right now, the Bills

321
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: are ranked six running the football. They ranked higher in

322
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: the run versus the pass at this point. I know

323
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 1: Josh Allen has kind of struggled to get into a

324
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,439
Speaker 1: rhythm with his receivers through the first two weeks, but

325
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: at least the run game has been showing up, and

326
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: their yards per average per rush is pretty good as well.

327
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: I can't remember off the time my head, but I

328
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 1: think it's over four yards per carry or something like that.

329
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 1: But I like the fact that they're doing this now.

330
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: I know it's not going to be an every week thing,

331
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: and it will be depending on the opponents that they face,

332
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 1: but you might as well get something like this down

333
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 1: now and down pat early on in the season and

334
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 1: have it be working so that when you are passing

335
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,199
Speaker 1: the ball more, when this offense is in a rhythm

336
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: with its wide receivers and they do go kind of

337
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: back to their old ways of twenty twenty one, that

338
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: they can go back to the run when they need to.

339
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,439
Speaker 1: That was the issue last season. It was when we

340
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 1: needed to rely on the run, it didn't show up.

341
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,239
Speaker 1: So the fact that it's showing up right now, I

342
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 1: think is good for what could happen down the road. Yeah,

343
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: they're averaging four point seven to carry through the first

344
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 1: two games. Obviously that's helped by a twenty five yard

345
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 1: run by Singletary in week one and then the forty

346
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 1: six yard touchdown in week two, but still, I mean,

347
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 1: they all count including the ones that go for losses.

348
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 1: So if you're going to take out the big ones,

349
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,160
Speaker 1: take out the ones for a loss too. So yeah,

350
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 1: and sixth in the league in rushing right now, I

351
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: look at it this way. I'm encouraged because when they

352
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,359
Speaker 1: had to use the run game last week, it was

353
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: able to help them. It wasn't just a throw in,

354
00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. There are times last year

355
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: where they tried to turn to the run game and

356
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 1: it just flat out didn't work, and they almost had

357
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,439
Speaker 1: to keep doing it to a point, and then it

358
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 1: got to a point where Brian Dable said, screw it,

359
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: We're just going to throw all the time on first down.

360
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: And at the end of the year, the Bills threw

361
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 1: on first down more than any other team in football

362
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,920
Speaker 1: because the run game wasn't effective enough. But you look

363
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,120
Speaker 1: at last week's game specifically, and two of the biggest

364
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 1: offseason priorities that this team had to make themselves better

365
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 1: was one, improved the pass rush and two be a

366
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 1: more effective team at running the football, not necessarily use

367
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,120
Speaker 1: that as their offensive identity, but be more effective when

368
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: they do decide to run. And I thought they checked

369
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: both of those boxes last week, and both parts of

370
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 1: that of their game that we just talked about were instrumental.

371
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 1: And then posting the victory. I mean there were other

372
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: reasons too, but those were two chief components to the

373
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 1: win last week. So I'm encouraged by it. Do I

374
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 1: want to see it continue? I think it's an as

375
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: needed basis. Let me know that it's there when I

376
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 1: need to use it. And this might be a week

377
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 1: coming up, Maddie where they do have to use it again,

378
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 1: if not for anything, just to keep this very ultra

379
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: talented defensive front from really getting after Josh and causing problems.

380
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: You could make the argument that this front four defensively

381
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: for Washington this week is even more talented across the

382
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,879
Speaker 1: board than the Pittsburgh front is. And it's not just

383
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 1: because they're all first round picks. They're all first round

384
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: picks for a reason, obviously, But those four guys, I

385
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: think I would take them over Pittsburgh's four guys, even

386
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: though Pittsburgh probably has the single best player of the

387
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: eight in t J. Watt, not that Chase Young is

388
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: far off, but collectively, I think Washington's four man front

389
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: is better than Pittsburgh. So you say to yourself. Well,

390
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 1: if you can run the ball, then maybe you kind

391
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: of keep them at bay a little bit in terms

392
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 1: of getting after Josh and I watch a little bit

393
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,119
Speaker 1: of Washington's game last week, Maddie against the Giants. The

394
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 1: Giants did have open up some holes in the running game.

395
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: So I think it's a realistic possibility. I just don't

396
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: want to see it necessarily every week because I think

397
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 1: we all agree that even though the passing game is sputtered,

398
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: that it's still probably going to carry the day. Is

399
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 1: the identity of the Bill's offense this year? Yeah, I

400
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: mean the identity is not to run the football. The

401
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 1: identity is to pass the football. The Bills have a

402
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: quarterback in Josh Allen who is really good at passing

403
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 1: a football last year. They're not going to go away

404
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,360
Speaker 1: from his strengths. He's your dual threat guy who can

405
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: also take it on his own. So some of those

406
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 1: runs that a team may give to a running back,

407
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 1: they're going to give to Josh Allen because he does

408
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,120
Speaker 1: have that dual threat ability to take the football when

409
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 1: he needs to, whether they're designed runs or whether Josh

410
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: sees something open up on his own and goes for

411
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,120
Speaker 1: a first down as the pockets collapsing. But yeah, I mean,

412
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: I agree, it's it's nice and it's good that this

413
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 1: run game is providing an impact right now in a

414
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: positive way, because if they go away from it, hopefully

415
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 1: when they go back to it, it's going to be

416
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,880
Speaker 1: the same. It's not going to be something like it

417
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: was last year where you're seeing us hand the ball

418
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: off to Devin Singletary four times in a row and

419
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: he doesn't really gain any yards and you're wondering, why

420
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: are we even running the ball right now? Because that

421
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 1: happened sometimes last season when you know, in the middle

422
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 1: of the game, you're on Twitter checking out what fans

423
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,119
Speaker 1: are saying, and fans are like, why are we running

424
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 1: the football? We should be passing the football, And then

425
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 1: we go to throwing the football, and it's why aren't

426
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 1: we running the football? We only pass the football. So

427
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 1: I'm glad that Devin and Zach have had this impact

428
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 1: throughout the first two weeks, and hopefully it continues down

429
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 1: the stretch. I mean, we need a tough running back

430
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: in Zach Moss. I think this team missed that in

431
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 1: the playoffs when he went out with that ankle injury

432
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 1: and ended his season early. I think he is a

433
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 1: different type of threat. When it comes to the weapons

434
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,360
Speaker 1: that we have on this team. I agree that Devin

435
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: Singletary also provides that. I love that these two running

436
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 1: backs can also catch the football. That's very important to

437
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: this offense to give them those screen looks things like

438
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 1: that that help open up the field to see some holes,

439
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,160
Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. I believe that they

440
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 1: can add to the game in a lot of different ways.

441
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 1: And what they were able to do in the off

442
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: season two Zach was rehabbing he is now healthy. Devin

443
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:48,120
Speaker 1: Singletary adding those pounds, working on his speed. I mean,

444
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: these are all positive things that can help your offense

445
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 1: improve as a whole and add wrinkles to it. That's

446
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: what you want to do this year. This team has

447
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: been studied by every single defense. They know what they

448
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: were good at last year. Defenses are probably going to

449
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: shut some of that stuff down that the Bills continue

450
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,119
Speaker 1: to do, so you're going to have to rely on

451
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 1: other things at time in a run game or Devin

452
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 1: Singleton and Zach Moss, their strengths add that different wrinkle,

453
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 1: add something that maybe defenses haven't seen on tape in

454
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 1: a year or so. Let's get to the tweet sheet, which,

455
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 1: as we know, is brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems,

456
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 1: the official equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills. See

457
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,680
Speaker 1: what you guys think about whether the Bill should continue

458
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 1: to employ a more balanced attack with their offense. Jack

459
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: leads us off today and says, yes, but only if

460
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 1: the d is playing light in the box, allowing the

461
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 1: Bill's ground game to run, including using Allen's legs. Do

462
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: what works until they stop it and force you to

463
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: change it. But that's it. I still want the offense

464
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 1: to take shots and be aggressive, get the ball to

465
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: Cole and Steph. I mean, this was a team last year,

466
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 1: Maddie that threw at sixty one percent of the time

467
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 1: and ran at forty nine percent of the time. They

468
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 1: were in like, I want to say that top eight

469
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: if memory serves, or top five in terms of pass

470
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: to run percentages. So they were a heavy pass team

471
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 1: as we know. But if they're fifty eight and forty two,

472
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: I mean, is it going to be demonstrably different? Probably not,

473
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 1: but that might mean an extra couple of games that

474
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: kind of like we saw last week where it is

475
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: close to fifty fifty to kind of even out the

476
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,360
Speaker 1: percentages or bring them a little closer together. But I'm

477
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: looking at Washington twenty third against the run through two

478
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 1: games and twenty fourth against the pass. It looks, at

479
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: least on paper, like there could be opportunities for both

480
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 1: parts of the offense. Yeah, I mean, I think so.

481
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 1: You're you look at this Washington football team and they

482
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 1: have a really good defensive line for a lot of reasons.

483
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 1: There's some high draft picks, but the fact that they

484
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 1: were drafted high has also shown up on the field

485
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: for this group, and there are two weeks you could

486
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 1: look at their stats and be like, I don't know

487
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: about those defense They're, like you said, ring twenty third

488
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 1: against run, Ring twenty fourth against the paths. They're allowing

489
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:18,120
Speaker 1: forty nine points a game at this point, but they

490
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 1: blitz at the second highest rate right now, doing at

491
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 1: forty two and a half percent of the time, which

492
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: is a lot, but there's also going to be some

493
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 1: holes and maybe some opportunities. They're really good in the

494
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 1: red zone so far, they're only allowing touchdowns thirty three

495
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: percent of the time, but then they're terrible right now

496
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,959
Speaker 1: against third downs. They let a lot of teams convert

497
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 1: third downs. They ranked thirtieth, allowing teams to do that

498
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: almost sixty percent of the times. So I think this

499
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: is a defense where this offense is going to be

500
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: able to find some holes. The Giants, like you said,

501
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,679
Speaker 1: the Giants were able to find those holes and score points,

502
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: put points on the scoreboard. I mean, the Washington football

503
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 1: team is allowing forty nine points a game right now.

504
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:05,360
Speaker 1: That's a little bit crazy, But I know scoring has

505
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: also been up in the league, so we'll have to see.

506
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,679
Speaker 1: But I do think this is a defense that you

507
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:15,639
Speaker 1: might be able to get through in different types of ways.

508
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:19,879
Speaker 1: Whereas the Pittsburgh Steelers, it's, you know, they're just a tough,

509
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: stout defense and T. J. Watt is a really hard

510
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 1: defender to get by in the way that he does

511
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:31,479
Speaker 1: his work on the field that confuses a lot of offenses. Yeah,

512
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 1: so I really think the key to the game, though,

513
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: is going to be the play of Buffalo's offensive line.

514
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 1: I mean, they still had a couple of hiccups last week,

515
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,879
Speaker 1: certainly far fewer than in Week one. They're going to

516
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 1: be tested in this game from start to finish. Whether

517
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 1: it's some of the Blitz packages that you mentioned, or

518
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 1: whether it's just that Front four Russian Adam, They're going

519
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 1: to have their hands full for sure, So they got

520
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,360
Speaker 1: to come to the game with their A game, as

521
00:27:56,359 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 1: they often say. Before we get to break here to

522
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 1: remind you that Wegmans is teaming up with the Buffalo

523
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: Bills Foundation to help fight hunger in Western New York.

524
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,680
Speaker 1: From September twentieth to the twenty third, that's this week,

525
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: Wegman's will donate five dollars for every meals to Go

533
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 1: our region takes teamwork and us all working together. Mattie

534
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: and I are going to take a break here, but

535
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 1: when we come back. We've got some comments from both

536
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 1: Brian Dable and Leslie Frasier on some of the more

537
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 1: notable performances in Sunday's Week to Win Long with some

538
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 1: other interesting comments from them. It's the coordinators coming up

539
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 1: next here on One Bills Line present a collut of health.

540
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. Welcome back to One Bills Live.

541
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:18,360
Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Maddi glab with you as we pressed forward

542
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: here in our number one got Kyle Brand from NFL

543
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 1: Network joining us in the second hour of the show,

544
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: and we did want to get to some comments from

545
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 1: the coaches. The coordinators addressed the media yesterday, both Leslie

546
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 1: Fraser and Brian Dabele, and had some interesting comments. So

547
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: we wanted to bring some of their more notable comments

548
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 1: to you, and we start with Brian Dabele, who is

549
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 1: addressing the very subject we're talking about today. Should the

550
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: Bill's offensive game plan remain balanced or at least more

551
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: balanced than we saw last year? And you can answer

552
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: that on the tweet sheet at One Bills Live. But

553
00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 1: here is offensive coordinator Briden Dable on that very subject.

554
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 1: We try to do things each week that we think

555
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: gives us gives us a chance, and um, you know

556
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: obviously that was that was part of the plan yesterday.

557
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: As you saw relative to numbers and things like that.

558
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 1: You know, I thought there was a lot of good things.

559
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 1: You know, it's hard to score thirty five points in

560
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 1: the National Football League, but there's certainly a lot of

561
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,040
Speaker 1: things that we all can do better that we want

562
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 1: to do better. Look again, our goal is to try

563
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 1: to score in every drive. So you know, when you

564
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 1: get to a point when you feel like that and

565
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 1: you're disappointed that you didn't punch it in or get

566
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: any points, um, I think that's a that's a healthy

567
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: thing because there's there's a lot of guys in the

568
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: room that you know, we have a standard. We try

569
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 1: to play and coach that standard, regardless of the score,

570
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 1: regardless of the situation, whatever that may be. And I

571
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: think that's a credit to the guys we have in

572
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 1: the room. Well, not a surprising a coach table. We'll

573
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 1: do whatever we need to do each and every given week.

574
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 1: I just think there's a real chance that they try

575
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: to go with some semblance of balance again this week,

576
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: just to kind of keep that pass rush at Bay

577
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: that Washington could put on the field. And I think also,

578
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: I mean, if the passing game isn't showing up yet,

579
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: and I don't know if it's gonna be awoken over

580
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 1: like one game that by the snap of a finger,

581
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: like all right, Josh Allen and his offense and his

582
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 1: wide receivers aren't gonna pop off this game. I think

583
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 1: it might be something that is going to build upon

584
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: game after game. I don't see him throwing for like

585
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 1: four hundred yards against the Washington football team and see

586
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs racking up one hundred and fifty yards. I

587
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 1: think this is something that's going to be not maybe

588
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 1: baby steps, but it's going to build each week as

589
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 1: we go on into the season. And so I think

590
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: because of that, you are going to have to rely

591
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 1: on the run more right now because your passing game,

592
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: your receivers may not be doing as much right now,

593
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: and so you're gonna have to lean on guys like

594
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 1: Devon and Zach, especially if they've got hot hands right now.

595
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 1: That's also something that Brian Dayball loves to talk about,

596
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 1: is we're going to give the ball to the guy

597
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: who has the hot hand, and if that happens to

598
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 1: be the running backs, then maybe we're going to see

599
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: a more balanced attack here in the next couple of weeks. Well,

600
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: and the other thing too, is I think we all

601
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 1: know after last year, the biggest concern that every defensive

602
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 1: coordinator in the league is going to go into a

603
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 1: game against the Bills with is we don't want to

604
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: get beat over the top by Josh Allen's arm. So

605
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 1: just by that fact, they're going to have probably safety's

606
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 1: back a good deal of the time, which means only

607
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: seven man seven men in the box, and so you

608
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 1: have to prove that you can run effectively against seven

609
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 1: man boxes. And if you can, well that's when you

610
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: force them to change and pull a safety down to

611
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: put eight in the box to stop the run, and

612
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 1: now you only have three dbs deep, and that's when

613
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 1: your receivers have a better chance of winning. So it's

614
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 1: almost as if you have to use the run game

615
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: to dictate to your opponent, Hey, you gotta change or

616
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 1: we're just going to keep running it on you all

617
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: day long. Against some of the more high flying offenses

618
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: like Kansas City, maybe that doesn't work as effectively because

619
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: you've got to kind of match them score for score,

620
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 1: and the fastest way to do that is throwing the

621
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 1: ball around. But for a team like Washington, I think

622
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 1: he can probably use the run game again and see

623
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 1: if you can force Washington to come out of maybe

624
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: what their game plan is to stop an effective run game.

625
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: And that's probably why they wanted to run it more

626
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: effectively all along. Talking about it all last offseason, Brian

627
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: Dable also addressed Josh Allen's criticism of himself. We know

628
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: he's one of the most self aware quarterbacks in football.

629
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 1: When he believes there's a deficiency in his game somewhere

630
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: in his performance, he's not afraid to voice it and

631
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: point the finger at himself. Sometimes he's almost too hard

632
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: on himself. But here is Brian dable take on Josh

633
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: being his own worst critic. We were just talking for

634
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:10,640
Speaker 1: a while upstairs, and you know, he's got that I'm

635
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 1: not going to say despondent. Look, but he's just kind

636
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: of now He's like, I should have done this, this

637
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 1: and this, And I said, yeah, I know, Look, we

638
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,720
Speaker 1: can always do better, all of us. We can always

639
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 1: do better. I said, but look at there's so many

640
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 1: little things that maybe outside of really understanding and knowing

641
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: what we're doing, some of the things that he did

642
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:32,279
Speaker 1: really really, he really did a good job in those.

643
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: You know, obviously he wants to complete every pass. And

644
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 1: you know, I said, look, I don't care how many

645
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: throwaways you have, if you got to throw the football

646
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 1: away and that's the best decision, and that's the best decision.

647
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:46,840
Speaker 1: So again, I don't mind him being his his harshest critic.

648
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 1: He wants to be he wants to be so good.

649
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 1: I think that's what that's what helped him to improve

650
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 1: each and every year. And that's a great thing to

651
00:34:55,520 --> 00:35:00,720
Speaker 1: have too, because again, this league, it's a tough league.

652
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 1: There's tough opponents, there's tough coaching staff, there's touch schemes

653
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 1: to go against. UM, and you're not gonna be perfect

654
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,239
Speaker 1: every week. You know, there's gonna be some there's gonna

655
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: be some downs, there's gonna be some some hiccups and

656
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: some you know, you know, it's not gonna be always great. UM.

657
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 1: I think it's important not to ride a roller coaster.

658
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: And I think he's you know, in the year that

659
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: he's in, um, you know, fourth year, and you know,

660
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 1: he's done a lot of good things. I think he

661
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 1: you know, that mindset is is really important, UM, because

662
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,440
Speaker 1: you can get down real quick in his business as

663
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: much as you can get up. And I think, um,

664
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 1: the good players, the good coaches that I've learned from

665
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,359
Speaker 1: and bet around, and players are as consistent as they

666
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:44,320
Speaker 1: can be U and he is, he's at He's always

667
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: whether we win or whether we lose. It's not the

668
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,839
Speaker 1: you know, fifty five plays or sixty plays that he

669
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 1: did the exact right way. It's the six plays or

670
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: the five plays that he wishes he had back. And

671
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 1: I think if you're a competitor, um, that's the way

672
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 1: it should be. You know, whether it's a coach, whether

673
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 1: it's a player. You know, look, we were supposed to

674
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 1: do it right. That's our job. It's not always going

675
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 1: to happen that way. So can you be mentally strong

676
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,960
Speaker 1: enough and tough enough to whether handle the coaching, handle

677
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: a criticism, however, whatever it may be, to keep on

678
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: moving forward with an improven mindset. And that's that's him

679
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 1: to a t. Yeah. I mean, I think what Josh

680
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:35,440
Speaker 1: fights within himself all the time, Maddie is he is

681
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 1: hyper competitive. He's not just a competitor. He is hyper competitive.

682
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 1: He wants to make a play on every snap in

683
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: the game. And I think as he matures and gets,

684
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,399
Speaker 1: you know, more and more time in this league, he

685
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 1: is going to come to accept the fact that a

686
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 1: throwaway when nothing is there is better than trying to

687
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: force a play that could lead to a negative play,

688
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 1: living for another down, you know, getting rid of the

689
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 1: ball and throwing it in the dirt, you know, when

690
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,399
Speaker 1: he's under pressure and he's probably gonna take a sack

691
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: for a loss. Those are all good decisions, even though

692
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: they may not be positive plays. And I think he's

693
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 1: got I think he's on his way to getting to

694
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 1: a point where he can feel good about accepting that

695
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 1: those kinds of plays are going to come up through

696
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 1: the course of a football game. Yeah, I think we've

697
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,359
Speaker 1: seen him do a better job of leaving that hero

698
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:37,279
Speaker 1: ball in the past, But when you talk about his competitiveness,

699
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 1: it's hard to leave something like that behind you when

700
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 1: you want to put your team on your back every

701
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 1: opportunity that you have to put your team in a

702
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 1: good situation to win the football game. And I know

703
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,879
Speaker 1: Brian day Ball, Sean McDermott, Brandon Bean have all talked

704
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: about the fact that, you know, sometimes that's just what

705
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 1: you get with Josh Allen. Sometimes he's gonna make maybe

706
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 1: an ill time to throw that lead into an interception.

707
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: But that's the competitive nature of him, and that's the

708
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 1: hero ball that maybe he'll always hold on to just

709
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: a little bit, because I don't think we're ever going

710
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 1: to see him put that completely in the past, just

711
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: because of the type of player that he is. But

712
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:21,359
Speaker 1: I think we've seen him learn in the last three

713
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,959
Speaker 1: plus now as he's in his fourth season, learn how

714
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 1: to make those right decisions and decide to throw the

715
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 1: football away instead of taking a sack or instead of

716
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:36,879
Speaker 1: making a bad throw that could lead into a turnover. Right.

717
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 1: And I think any coach would tell you they'd rather

718
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 1: have a player that they have to tell him to

719
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 1: pull the reins back on himself rather than having to

720
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:47,840
Speaker 1: try to kick him in the pants or amp or

721
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 1: jack him up. You never have to turn the dial

722
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,520
Speaker 1: up on Josh. It's always at eleven. It's just a

723
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: matter of turning it back down in certain moments. Know

724
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,240
Speaker 1: when he's your trigger man on every single play. Coach

725
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 1: Frasier naturally was asked about how effective his pass rush

726
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,839
Speaker 1: was from his defensive unit this past week. Here is

727
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 1: his take on why they were so successful. It's awesome,

728
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,280
Speaker 1: you know, for that to happen, because it was definitely

729
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: an emphasis throughout the week that we wanted to take

730
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 1: the football away and then for it to come infloration

731
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:24,399
Speaker 1: in the game and really helped our team have success.

732
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 1: It's a it's a big deal, and so we'll continue

733
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,400
Speaker 1: to harp on it and hopefully we'll get the results

734
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:33,080
Speaker 1: continue going forward. But it just validates the importance of

735
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,400
Speaker 1: whatever you want to achieve, you know, emphasizing that and

736
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: you can achieve what you emphasize. So we're going to

737
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 1: continue to do that. Saying we wanted to be aggressive

738
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 1: and really tack a line of scrimmage, and our guys executed.

739
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,279
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's the key to our success, the

740
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 1: execution and the preparation during the week. A lot of

741
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,200
Speaker 1: the things that we did or things we've done in

742
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 1: the past was but the execution was on point, and

743
00:39:56,520 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 1: the guys did a terrific job during the week preparing

744
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 1: to go out and execute their summons. And you know,

745
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 1: every week is a little bit different than how you

746
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: approached an opponent, but that was what we thought we

747
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 1: needed to do against that particular opponent. Mattie, You're not

748
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 1: that aggressive with a game plan unless you are almost

749
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 1: one hundred percent confident that your people are going to

750
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:26,920
Speaker 1: win one on one battles consistently. I think that coach

751
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:29,879
Speaker 1: Frasier was so confident that he had better people than

752
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 1: Miami had that he just turned them loose and they

753
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: came through for him. And you don't dial up a

754
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: game plan like that when you talk about the aggressiveness,

755
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,839
Speaker 1: unless you know your opponent. This is a team that

756
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 1: they face twice a year, and this is a team that, yeah,

757
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 1: they've changed a lot over the last few seasons, but

758
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 1: their offensive weapons we know them. Yes, you add Jalen

759
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 1: Waddle to the mix, but these are offensive guys that

760
00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,080
Speaker 1: our defense has played against in the last season and

761
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 1: in the last two seasons, they've played against Tuah before.

762
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: They know Tua. So this is a game that you

763
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 1: can scheme up against and that you truly know your opponent.

764
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 1: They're going to add some different things to their own

765
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,760
Speaker 1: game plan and add some wrinkles probably to their offense

766
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:18,879
Speaker 1: this year. You don't want to look the same year

767
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:22,000
Speaker 1: to year. But I think also you don't create a

768
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 1: game plan like this unless you face that team quite

769
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 1: a bit, which they do. Break time for Mannie and

770
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 1: I here, we'll get a couple of more comments from

771
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:34,879
Speaker 1: coach Frasier when we return. Also, it's time for Reed's Milestones.

772
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 1: The Bills defense has held opponents scoreless in the first

773
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: half this season. This is the ninth time in team

774
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:45,200
Speaker 1: history with zero first half points allowed in back to

775
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 1: back games, and it's the first time since nineteen ninety nine,

776
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 1: when the Bills did it against the Jets and the

777
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,840
Speaker 1: Eagles in back to back weeks. Here's a little side note.

778
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 1: The Bills defense finished first in the league that season.

779
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 1: Reads Milestones and reads Gen's the official jeweler of the

780
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills back in a moment here on One Bill's Live.

781
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 1: Josh Allen had ten thousand, one hund fifty six passing

782
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:27,160
Speaker 1: yards in his career, fifth most in Bill's history. Following

783
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 1: the game against the Dolphins, he surpassed Drew Bledsoe and

784
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: became the sixth quarterback in Bill's history with ten thousand

785
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:36,240
Speaker 1: passing yards, reaching that mark in just his forty sixth

786
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 1: career game, the second fastest Bill to ten thousand passing yards,

787
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:44,840
Speaker 1: behind only Jim Kelly, who did it in forty five games.

788
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: The New York Lotteries Inside the Numbers presents these stats

789
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,400
Speaker 1: to you Inside the Numbers is brought to you by

790
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 1: the New York Lottery. Get out there and play. We

791
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 1: want to get back to some comments from defensive coordinator

792
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 1: Leslie Frazier, and he obviously had some pretty good performers

793
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,400
Speaker 1: individual performers across the board in this game. One of

794
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: them aj Epenessa, whose game just burst onto the scene

795
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 1: last Sunday. So here is Coach Fraser on AJ's play

796
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,800
Speaker 1: against the Dolphins. That was our hope and our desire

797
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 1: when we talked to him about losing the weight, that

798
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,479
Speaker 1: this is what we wanted to see, more speed because

799
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,319
Speaker 1: we felt like he had to albatic and boot it.

800
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 1: But at two hundred and eighty pounds, we weren't sure

801
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 1: that we would get we wanted at our level, and

802
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 1: so in our scheme and how we do things, So

803
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 1: dropping that weight and seeing what he did yesterday and

804
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 1: what he's done through training camp and now through the

805
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 1: preseason and then the regular season is exactly what we

806
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,919
Speaker 1: were hoping for. And there's a lot more good to come.

807
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 1: So a lot more good to come. I mean, if

808
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 1: he can do better than that, I'm pretty excited. It's

809
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 1: to what we're in for. Maddie, Like we talked about,

810
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:58,440
Speaker 1: we could be seeing that passing of the torture earlier

811
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:02,359
Speaker 1: than we all expected with our defensive ends, our young

812
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:06,359
Speaker 1: defensive ends and Greg Russo and aj At Vanessa. But

813
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,520
Speaker 1: it's been really nice to see him come on. I mean,

814
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 1: this is a guy that they drafted in the second round,

815
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 1: which was kind of our really our first round pick.

816
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: It was our first pick of the twenty twenty draft

817
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: because we traded that pick away to get Stefan Digs

818
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,400
Speaker 1: and so to have someone drafted that high and maybe

819
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 1: to see their rookie season not go as planned because

820
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 1: he didn't really fit body type wise in the scheme

821
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,200
Speaker 1: that they wanted him to be in. It's nice to

822
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,200
Speaker 1: see that hard work payoff. And he talked about being

823
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: in Buffalo for a lot of the offseason working with

824
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 1: our strength staff to get to be the type of

825
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: body that they wanted him to be in this defense.

826
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: And I love what we saw out of him in

827
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:50,439
Speaker 1: training camp. But I love what we're seeing in week

828
00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:53,359
Speaker 1: two from him, and I hope it continues, because, yeah,

829
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: this defensive line could be a wrecking ball. If this

830
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,279
Speaker 1: is what it's going to look like all season. You

831
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: really could have p from about seven to eight different

832
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,399
Speaker 1: defensive players as standout performers in this game. Another one

833
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:08,480
Speaker 1: was Tarn Johnson. Obviously had the early sack in the game,

834
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,560
Speaker 1: which was easily noticeable, but his work in coverage and

835
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:16,760
Speaker 1: on fourth down exemplary, And we heard Jordan Poyer Maddie

836
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,880
Speaker 1: after the game called him the best nickel corner in

837
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: the league. That's really high praise from a veteran player

838
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,319
Speaker 1: and a former captain on the defense to say that.

839
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:30,440
Speaker 1: But here's Leslie Frazier on Terren Johnson's impact on the

840
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 1: defense in those early days. Not only was he one

841
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 1: we were wondering, also is he gonna figure it out?

842
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 1: Is he gonna come along people we thought he would

843
00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 1: be when we drafted him. And to Tern's credit, you know,

844
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,400
Speaker 1: he's worked extremely hard to get a good grasp of

845
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,880
Speaker 1: the defense to the point where now he's like a

846
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 1: coach on the field. And Jimmy Salgado, who works with

847
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:54,959
Speaker 1: our Knuckles, has done a terrific job of spending time

848
00:45:55,000 --> 00:46:00,000
Speaker 1: with him both at practice in the classroom, creep practice,

849
00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:03,799
Speaker 1: post practice, so that's helped as well. One of the

850
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 1: bigger concerns with Taron was the injury book. Early on,

851
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,320
Speaker 1: you know, he continued to get injured and we couldn't

852
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 1: keep him on the field. But lately he's been able

853
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:16,680
Speaker 1: to stay on the field and he's developed into a really,

854
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,200
Speaker 1: really good player, one of the best slot corners in

855
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 1: the National Football League. So we are very fortunate to

856
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:25,800
Speaker 1: watch his development and see his maturation over this period.

857
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 1: So there's coach Fraser seconding the motion that Taron Johnson

858
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,560
Speaker 1: is the best nickel corner in football. I'm sure there

859
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,960
Speaker 1: are going to be other teams that have arguments, but

860
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,319
Speaker 1: he has played pretty soundly all year last year for

861
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,880
Speaker 1: the most part, and this year he's off to a

862
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 1: great start and getting back to those injuries, Maddie. Even

863
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,960
Speaker 1: when he had a bum shoulder that he injured very

864
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 1: early in his rookie season, he played as long as

865
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 1: he possibly could with the injury, basically strapping up a harness,

866
00:46:56,160 --> 00:47:00,800
Speaker 1: and played with that, I want to say, deep into November.

867
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 1: I don't think they shut him down until the last

868
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:06,319
Speaker 1: five or six weeks of the season, and I think

869
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,880
Speaker 1: that went a long way in showing this coaching staff

870
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:12,799
Speaker 1: and his teammates in the locker room just how tough

871
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,200
Speaker 1: he was. For just being a one hundred eighty five

872
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 1: one ninety pound guy, and even coming into this season,

873
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,800
Speaker 1: he had like a club on one of his hands.

874
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 1: For like the last two weeks of training camp, it

875
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,440
Speaker 1: turned into basically just like a soft cast or a

876
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,440
Speaker 1: soft rap on his hand that he was playing with.

877
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if he still has it on, but

878
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:36,359
Speaker 1: I remember seeing him him in some of those practices

879
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:40,279
Speaker 1: just with a huge wrap around his hand. And he

880
00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 1: alluded to when we spoke to him last that I

881
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 1: maybe didn't take care of myself like I should have

882
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 1: earlier on in my career when it came to injuries.

883
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 1: That's why maybe was more injury prone. And I've learned

884
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 1: how to take care of my body to do the

885
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,880
Speaker 1: things that I need to do, whether it's lifting, whether

886
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:02,760
Speaker 1: it's nutritional things. I've learned how to do those things.

887
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:06,200
Speaker 1: That makes me a player who maybe is not as

888
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,120
Speaker 1: injury prone as I used to be. So that's really

889
00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 1: good to hear. And Sean McDermott commented on that too

890
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 1: and said that he loves when players can learn from

891
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:19,000
Speaker 1: veteran players, or from coaches, or from the athletics staff,

892
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 1: you name it, learn how to adjust their bodies or

893
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 1: adjust themselves into being true NFL players who are going

894
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,799
Speaker 1: to last in the NFL more than three years. Yeah.

895
00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,040
Speaker 1: I remember talking to him after his rookie year, which

896
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 1: was riddled by injuries, and he said, yeah, I learned

897
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 1: that year that I had to get bigger and stronger,

898
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 1: and so I had to go on a weight program

899
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:44,840
Speaker 1: through that first NFL offseason. And it was important because

900
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 1: that nickel position in this defense, it's a very physical position.

901
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,920
Speaker 1: You have to act as almost a third linebacker sometimes

902
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 1: in the run front, and more and more teams are

903
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,480
Speaker 1: putting bigger and bigger players in the slot to play receiver,

904
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:01,720
Speaker 1: so you're going again bigger, physical players a good portion

905
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 1: of the time. So he's really risen to the challenge

906
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:09,320
Speaker 1: of being more available on a regular basis, and knock

907
00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:12,319
Speaker 1: on wood, he stayed relatively healthy for the better part

908
00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:14,080
Speaker 1: of the last two years. All Right, we have to

909
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,080
Speaker 1: take a break here because when we come back, our

910
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,799
Speaker 1: number two will be headlined by the one and only

911
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,839
Speaker 1: Kyle Brandt from NFL Network. He's going to dive in

912
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 1: and let us know what he thinks of the first

913
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:26,840
Speaker 1: two weeks by the Bills, among other things concerning the

914
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,280
Speaker 1: team when we return here on One Bill's Live presented

915
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:47,719
Speaker 1: by Kalaia Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. There's a sense

916
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,360
Speaker 1: of objectivity we have to maintain here in good morning Football.

917
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:52,680
Speaker 1: There's teams that we like and teams that we want

918
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,320
Speaker 1: to win. And I can't believe that Michael Robinson and

919
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:57,799
Speaker 1: like mister Buffalo Bills took the Kansas City Chiefs. But

920
00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:00,759
Speaker 1: I respect it because you are professional and it's not

921
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:03,960
Speaker 1: about being a cheerleader. Is about who you think is

922
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,319
Speaker 1: really going to win. And guys, I have to be

923
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:10,080
Speaker 1: a professional. And I'm gonna say right here while on

924
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:14,399
Speaker 1: the Travis Kelsey Jersey, no one beats the Chiefs, no

925
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,120
Speaker 1: one takes them out. They're the best thing going. In

926
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:21,800
Speaker 1: order to beat this team, you gotta ball up. You

927
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:26,920
Speaker 1: got a man up. I gotta rise up. You got

928
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:34,400
Speaker 1: a loand off you up. You're going on the super Bowl.

929
00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:36,880
Speaker 1: Get this out of here. None of this on paper

930
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:40,800
Speaker 1: stuff on the field. It will be one Buffalo takes

931
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:45,480
Speaker 1: over Los Angeles. Start the parade. Okay, So I don't

932
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,640
Speaker 1: need to introduce anybody here because I think that pretty

933
00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:50,719
Speaker 1: much says it all. Kyle Brandt from NFL Network back

934
00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:52,839
Speaker 1: for another season. Good to have you, Kyle, good to

935
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:56,479
Speaker 1: see you. And how about this, So two weeks ago

936
00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,480
Speaker 1: you make that prediction. You are the cats me out

937
00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:03,960
Speaker 1: in Bill's fandom. Everybody loves you. And now here we

938
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:07,720
Speaker 1: are two weeks later, Zach Moss is disqualified from Angry

939
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:11,160
Speaker 1: Runs and you are drawing the full ire of Bill's mafia.

940
00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:15,840
Speaker 1: So well done on the turnaround there, good job, very fast.

941
00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:18,520
Speaker 1: And you notice guys Mattie and Brownie, you know, you know,

942
00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 1: as I didn't show up last week here on one

943
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:22,719
Speaker 1: of Bill's lives. I think it's in my new contractual

944
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:26,000
Speaker 1: agreement that I only come in after wins, which means

945
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,480
Speaker 1: I'll come in between thirteen or fourteen times this year,

946
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:32,320
Speaker 1: plus playoffs. But Brownie, I thought we were all friends.

947
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:34,439
Speaker 1: I thought we had a working relationship here. I thought

948
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,759
Speaker 1: this is a positive place. And then I go on

949
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 1: television and I hand out the Angry Runs scepter to

950
00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 1: Nazi Harris up the Steelers who deserved it, and all

951
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 1: I hear. But never mind Steelers fans, who could certainly

952
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,000
Speaker 1: say something to the Bills fans if they wanted to

953
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:51,720
Speaker 1: have said nothing. All I got Bills fans, Bills fans,

954
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 1: where zuc where zuc Man, you suck? This segment sucks

955
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:56,600
Speaker 1: is something stark blah blah blah blah blah blah. I've

956
00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 1: tried to explain. Can we can we clarify this? And

957
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,200
Speaker 1: thank you for asking. I would love to tell you

958
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,880
Speaker 1: Bills Mafia that the only rule on Angry runs is

959
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:07,759
Speaker 1: that there are no rules. But we do have one,

960
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,640
Speaker 1: and I don't care how cool, how punishing, how esthetically

961
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 1: pleasing the run is. If the receiving end of the

962
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:17,600
Speaker 1: run results in a player getting injured or can cost

963
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 1: or any of those terrible things, it's out. It doesn't qualify.

964
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:23,360
Speaker 1: And I hate that rule. I wish we could just

965
00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:25,759
Speaker 1: lay carnage and body count everywhere we go. I was

966
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:28,880
Speaker 1: raised on eighties and nineties football, but we can't. So

967
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 1: Zach Moss's only sin was running over the guy too

968
00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 1: hard because he broke him and it's over. And what

969
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:38,439
Speaker 1: do you know? One Bill's Life, the best produced show

970
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,759
Speaker 1: on television or the internet, has video right on Q

971
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:44,799
Speaker 1: and they jack the dude up and there's nothing I

972
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:46,759
Speaker 1: can do about it. Guys, Am I wrong. I have

973
00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:49,319
Speaker 1: to have some rules. It's not just the purge here

974
00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:51,880
Speaker 1: it's not martial law. I'm sorry. Yeah, it's a landing

975
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:54,359
Speaker 1: Roberts that was injured on the play. He got up

976
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:57,279
Speaker 1: real slow and then went to the sideline and he

977
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 1: was sitting on the bench for a while too, So

978
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,239
Speaker 1: it was you know, man on man and you know

979
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:04,920
Speaker 1: Zach Moss one. I don't have to tell you that, Kyle,

980
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,080
Speaker 1: because I believe you were a former running back, right,

981
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:11,600
Speaker 1: So I mean, here we are. Yeah, unfortunate rule, but

982
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:13,799
Speaker 1: you gotta play by it. And I get it. You know,

983
00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:16,560
Speaker 1: it's a league produced show, and you know we don't

984
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:18,560
Speaker 1: want to we don't want to celebrate injury. So I

985
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:20,479
Speaker 1: get it. And you know what, though, that's a cop

986
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:22,160
Speaker 1: out for me to blame it on the league. I

987
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:25,799
Speaker 1: produced that segments with due respect the Roser Goodell. He's

988
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:28,600
Speaker 1: not weighing in editorially on and agree runs every week.

989
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:31,040
Speaker 1: I'm not comfortable with the player getting hurt. And I'll

990
00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:33,320
Speaker 1: tell you something else. But it was week two. We

991
00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:35,520
Speaker 1: got a long way to go, Bills fans, So I

992
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 1: will leave that that encouraging note, but also this cynical note.

993
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:41,759
Speaker 1: I got news for you. Even if Zach Moss would

994
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,320
Speaker 1: have been eligible, he wouldn't have won this week anyway,

995
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:47,640
Speaker 1: So who cares he's not getting the scepter and bills

996
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:50,800
Speaker 1: fans right now are not about being nominated, not about

997
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 1: being close, not about getting the title games. It's about

998
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:56,480
Speaker 1: winning the whole thing. He wouldn't have won anyway. He

999
00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:59,600
Speaker 1: would have come in third behind Damien Harris and Nazi Harris.

1000
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:02,160
Speaker 1: So may we'll see you next week. Let's move on.

1001
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,280
Speaker 1: I'm hoping that one of our running backs or Josh

1002
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:10,280
Speaker 1: Allen or someone gets the Angry Run Scepter this year,

1003
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:12,640
Speaker 1: and I would have to say at least one of

1004
00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:15,600
Speaker 1: them is going to be nominated in order to have

1005
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:19,000
Speaker 1: the opportunity to win this award this year. But when

1006
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 1: you're talking about that Angry Run segment, I mean, how

1007
00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:25,680
Speaker 1: long do you stew over the options that you have

1008
00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 1: to present to your counterparts every week, all day Sunday,

1009
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:35,719
Speaker 1: all day Monday, all night Sunday. I'd live and die

1010
00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:38,120
Speaker 1: with this segment. And thank you, you guys and your

1011
00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:41,560
Speaker 1: fans so much for watching it. It's hard. Listen. There

1012
00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 1: was a play this week where Lamar Jackson just straight

1013
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,280
Speaker 1: up slap the guy in the face on the sideline

1014
00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:48,120
Speaker 1: and it was really cool, and I would love to

1015
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 1: include Lamar. That's really fun. I couldn't do it. There's

1016
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:53,879
Speaker 1: always sort of a cutting room floor. But I will

1017
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:56,960
Speaker 1: tell you here's another consolation. If you're looking for consolation

1018
00:54:57,000 --> 00:54:59,840
Speaker 1: Bills fans, I don't think you are. Every single week

1019
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:01,960
Speaker 1: you are a featured on Angry Runs because in the

1020
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:04,879
Speaker 1: opening montage is the best one we have ever had

1021
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:07,240
Speaker 1: in the history of the segment, which is Dawson Knox

1022
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:09,839
Speaker 1: on the far sideline, which is still my favorite we've

1023
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:12,560
Speaker 1: ever done. So he's always in it, and maybe he'll

1024
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:14,960
Speaker 1: have a fresh run Maddie this year, because that guy's

1025
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:18,640
Speaker 1: still a beast. And then I want to remind fans

1026
00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 1: that last year, probably around this time or maybe even

1027
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:24,120
Speaker 1: slightly before this time last year, you had the Bills

1028
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:26,680
Speaker 1: at twelve and four, you were out in front of it,

1029
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:32,320
Speaker 1: and they actually exceeded your prediction. You just casually throughout

1030
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:35,680
Speaker 1: thirteen fourteen wins about a minute and a half ago.

1031
00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:38,640
Speaker 1: So do you really think that they can they can

1032
00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:41,000
Speaker 1: get there? I mean, the schedule doesn't look nearly as

1033
00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 1: dawning as it did last year, Kyle, so you know

1034
00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,960
Speaker 1: they've split the first two games. The offense probably still

1035
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 1: hasn't played its best game yet. Even Josh would tell

1036
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:52,960
Speaker 1: you that. So you feel good about that. Thirteen fourteen

1037
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:57,160
Speaker 1: regular season victories. That's a haul. It's a great haul,

1038
00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:59,120
Speaker 1: and it's a great team. And Bronnie, what am I

1039
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,920
Speaker 1: gonna do when it come out and say, well, nine

1040
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 1: and eight? No, I don't think that way. I wouldn't

1041
00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,480
Speaker 1: say that. I don't believe that we can put up

1042
00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:10,080
Speaker 1: this schedule. You can put up any schedule you want.

1043
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:12,760
Speaker 1: I look at the team. I don't care who they play.

1044
00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:18,440
Speaker 1: I see Washington, there, Houston. No. I say this constantly,

1045
00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:21,960
Speaker 1: and I'm being serious about this. I take almost every

1046
00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:24,239
Speaker 1: single result from a Week one in the NFL and

1047
00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:26,640
Speaker 1: throw it away. Week one is a liar. Week one

1048
00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:29,000
Speaker 1: is always a liar. It will continue to be a liar.

1049
00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:32,000
Speaker 1: Go back to last season, all right, the twenty twenty season.

1050
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:34,759
Speaker 1: The Cleveland Browns lost by thirty two points Week one

1051
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:37,759
Speaker 1: one on I have a great season. The Jacksonville Jaguars

1052
00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,239
Speaker 1: one week one over the Colts team that faced the

1053
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,880
Speaker 1: Bills in the playoffs, and they have since lost seventeen

1054
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 1: straight games. Take everything you think you know after Week one,

1055
00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:48,440
Speaker 1: and that's a bunch of bs. The Bills were flat.

1056
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:50,520
Speaker 1: I think they were a little cocky, and I think

1057
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:55,440
Speaker 1: they got dealt with. Now. Week two is George Washington's

1058
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:58,560
Speaker 1: cannot tell a lie. Week two you want your daughter

1059
00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:00,920
Speaker 1: to marry. Week two, that's a great guy with a

1060
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:03,839
Speaker 1: great job, always tells the truth. So what I saw

1061
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,480
Speaker 1: up in this part of town was at thirty five

1062
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:10,040
Speaker 1: to nothing blowout. I mean, that's that is way more

1063
00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:12,600
Speaker 1: the Bills. Just like that was way more of the

1064
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 1: Titans we saw this week winning and overtime against Seattle.

1065
00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:17,920
Speaker 1: It was certainly way more of the Packers. We can

1066
00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:20,240
Speaker 1: go up and down the roster. I'm telling you. People

1067
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:23,880
Speaker 1: say preseason is misleading. Week one is so full of crap,

1068
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 1: never believe it. But Week two, hand on the Bible,

1069
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 1: I solemnly swear trust me. And what did Aaron Rodgers

1070
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,240
Speaker 1: say after Week two? He said it was good to

1071
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:36,440
Speaker 1: put the trolls to bed or tell the trolls to

1072
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 1: shut up, or whatever he said, because of the way

1073
00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,480
Speaker 1: that the Green Bay Packers played in that first week.

1074
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:45,240
Speaker 1: I mean, week three, what are you waiting to see

1075
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:48,120
Speaker 1: from this Buffalo Bills team? In Week three? What hasn't

1076
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:51,480
Speaker 1: showed up yet? In your eyes? Well, we haven't had.

1077
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 1: You know, Josh has not gone nuclear and that's okay.

1078
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,960
Speaker 1: He's been fine. Last week he was okay. Week one

1079
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,920
Speaker 1: he was shaky. But I don't really care because here's

1080
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 1: if we look forward to the whole season, I don't

1081
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,160
Speaker 1: care if Josh Allen wins the MVP. And I'll go

1082
00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 1: even a step further. I don't want him to win

1083
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:11,760
Speaker 1: the MVP. I want them to win the super Bowl.

1084
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:15,720
Speaker 1: It's they're they're mutually exclusive, and it usually doesn't link up.

1085
00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,280
Speaker 1: Last Aaron Rodgers won the MVP, they lost in the

1086
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 1: title game. Again, Lamar Jackson wins the MVP, they didn't win.

1087
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:24,840
Speaker 1: Squat the MVP is a regular season award for crazy,

1088
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:27,760
Speaker 1: gaudy statistics. And I would much rather see a more

1089
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:31,400
Speaker 1: well rounded Bills offense than Josh Allen just being a

1090
00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:33,959
Speaker 1: nuclear bomb every single week. And I'll put it this way.

1091
00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:36,040
Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of focus going into the

1092
00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,600
Speaker 1: season and now on the Bills running game, all right,

1093
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:41,360
Speaker 1: if it's motor, if it's moss, and I think there's

1094
00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:45,160
Speaker 1: way more focused now because did you see what's the word?

1095
00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:48,720
Speaker 1: Did you see how supple the Chiefs defense was the

1096
00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:52,320
Speaker 1: other night that was that was one ply toilet paper

1097
00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:55,720
Speaker 1: right through it. Like the Chiefs defense from three years

1098
00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:59,200
Speaker 1: ago before they supposedly fix their defense, I mean they

1099
00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 1: were soft. So listen, Josh can be Josh shirt. But

1100
00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:06,360
Speaker 1: I want to pound the Chiefs if I'm the Bills

1101
00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:08,720
Speaker 1: going into that game. So I don't want Josh stun

1102
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 1: win the MVP. If that's blasphemous, I don't care. It's

1103
00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:13,600
Speaker 1: not about that. It's about winning the Super Bowl and

1104
00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:16,240
Speaker 1: having a parade. There's no parades for MVP. You get

1105
00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:18,480
Speaker 1: out an award at the awards show and NFL Honors,

1106
00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:20,360
Speaker 1: and then you go home and you congratulate the Super

1107
00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:24,040
Speaker 1: Bowl winners. I'm not interested in that. Yeah, And you

1108
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:26,160
Speaker 1: know the Bills, with the matchup they have this week,

1109
00:59:26,360 --> 00:59:29,360
Speaker 1: it's not all that different from a defensive front. They

1110
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:31,360
Speaker 1: gave them problems in Week one. I mean, I don't

1111
00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:33,160
Speaker 1: have to run down the list, but I'm gonna do anyway.

1112
00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:36,440
Speaker 1: Cameron Hayward first round pick, Tyson Alulalu, first round pick,

1113
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:39,600
Speaker 1: t J. Watt first round pick, Melvin Ingram first round pick.

1114
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 1: It's the same thing this week against Washington. It's first

1115
00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,920
Speaker 1: round picks from left end to right end. On that

1116
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:49,960
Speaker 1: defensive front. I think how much Buffalo's offensive line has

1117
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,440
Speaker 1: improved in two weeks time is going to be critical

1118
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:55,200
Speaker 1: in this matchup. I do too, And actually I didn't

1119
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:57,560
Speaker 1: even think about it that way Browning, but you're right,

1120
00:59:57,640 --> 01:00:00,560
Speaker 1: like those crazy pass rushers, I think the advanta is

1121
01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:03,240
Speaker 1: is that Washington does not have him MACA. Fitzpatrick. I

1122
01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:05,440
Speaker 1: don't think they have his talented of a secondary. They

1123
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:08,240
Speaker 1: certainly don't have his talented of a quarterback. And I'll

1124
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:11,040
Speaker 1: say this, listen, I know that you guys love Fitzie.

1125
01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:15,120
Speaker 1: I love Ryan Fitzpatrick. Everybody in Buffalo does. I still

1126
01:00:15,160 --> 01:00:17,320
Speaker 1: think when he went down, with due respect to his injury,

1127
01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 1: I still think it was a slight upgrade of the quarterback.

1128
01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:22,120
Speaker 1: Because Ryan Fitzpatrick, they've shown us one thing for sweat

1129
01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:25,400
Speaker 1: sixteen years, up down, up down, up down. I get it,

1130
01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:27,560
Speaker 1: and I think they may have kind of that same guy. Now.

1131
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:30,480
Speaker 1: This Taylor Heineke is almost the same as Fitzpatrick, and

1132
01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:34,360
Speaker 1: that he's unproven, small program, kind of up and down.

1133
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:36,680
Speaker 1: He's got this energy that people seem to rally around,

1134
01:00:36,720 --> 01:00:38,480
Speaker 1: and he can get hot really fast, but he can

1135
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:41,800
Speaker 1: also make a critical mistake. So I actually am fine

1136
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:43,720
Speaker 1: with this matchup in in a way, the way you

1137
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:46,480
Speaker 1: put a brownie. The Steelers warm up was sort of

1138
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:48,640
Speaker 1: a practice for this in terms of the old line.

1139
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,440
Speaker 1: And now it's week three, they're playing a lesser quarterback.

1140
01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:54,320
Speaker 1: I'm not terribly concerned about this win or about this

1141
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:56,400
Speaker 1: weekend at all, and especially the way they have him.

1142
01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:59,120
Speaker 1: I think they buffalo handles this one. All right. We

1143
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:02,240
Speaker 1: gotta ask you our Twitter poll questions. Oh yeah, you

1144
01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:04,720
Speaker 1: brought up the run game, and that's what our Twitter

1145
01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:07,600
Speaker 1: poll is about. So a lot of our fans, a

1146
01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 1: lot of people watch the Bills love to love to

1147
01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:12,880
Speaker 1: wonder is this going to be a balanced team. When

1148
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:15,080
Speaker 1: they're passing the ball and doing great passing the ball,

1149
01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:16,680
Speaker 1: they want to see us run the ball more. Then

1150
01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:18,600
Speaker 1: when we run the ball, they want to see us

1151
01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:21,480
Speaker 1: pass the ball more. Nobody can ever be happy with

1152
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:23,640
Speaker 1: the attack that the Bills have, and Brian day Ball

1153
01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:27,160
Speaker 1: is constantly asked about it by our media, wondering are

1154
01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:29,720
Speaker 1: you going to be a balanced football team ever? And

1155
01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:32,560
Speaker 1: Brian's answers always, We're going to do what the game

1156
01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:34,840
Speaker 1: plan tells us we need to do, according to what

1157
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:37,880
Speaker 1: defense we're going to play against. So do you think

1158
01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:42,520
Speaker 1: the Bills should continue to employ a more balanced attack

1159
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:46,480
Speaker 1: with their offense? Now they were about fifty fifty in

1160
01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:49,880
Speaker 1: Week two against the Miami Dolphins in terms of run

1161
01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:53,880
Speaker 1: to pass week three and on what do you think balanced?

1162
01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:57,640
Speaker 1: No balance? I'm emphatically for balance. And I would only

1163
01:01:57,640 --> 01:01:59,960
Speaker 1: pull from last night. If you watch the early parts

1164
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 1: of that game, especially for the Packers, which say what

1165
01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:04,480
Speaker 1: you want about their faults as a team or whatever,

1166
01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:07,640
Speaker 1: and Aaron Rodgers offseason, their offense was humming and they

1167
01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:09,440
Speaker 1: ran the wheels off it at the beginning of the

1168
01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:11,880
Speaker 1: Game's clearly they came out and said, all right, Weak

1169
01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:14,240
Speaker 1: one was a disaster. Let's just keep running it and

1170
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:16,280
Speaker 1: running it and running it. And it worked and it

1171
01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:18,120
Speaker 1: was a tone setter. And I would go back to

1172
01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:20,760
Speaker 1: this last Bills game. So as much as think about

1173
01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:23,520
Speaker 1: if you had choose your own adventure, you start the

1174
01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:26,320
Speaker 1: game with, I don't know, let's say a sixty yard

1175
01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:29,080
Speaker 1: touchdown pass from Alan to Diggs, that would be exhilarating,

1176
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:32,400
Speaker 1: so exciting. Which is more exciting and which is more

1177
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:35,440
Speaker 1: promising that or the way it actually did start with

1178
01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:38,320
Speaker 1: the motor long touchdown, Like that's was like, oh, yes,

1179
01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:40,360
Speaker 1: I already know we can do the Diggs thing. I

1180
01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:43,320
Speaker 1: already know they got that. But seeing him bust out

1181
01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:45,920
Speaker 1: a long run right up the middle look like he

1182
01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:48,320
Speaker 1: was untouched, I was like, this is a new toy.

1183
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:50,800
Speaker 1: We can always go back to the Digs thing. The

1184
01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:53,960
Speaker 1: motor and the Moss thing is what I want. And guys,

1185
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:56,200
Speaker 1: they can't win the super Bowl without them. They can

1186
01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:59,160
Speaker 1: go to a title game with Alan Diggs the defense,

1187
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:01,400
Speaker 1: they can. We know that already. If they're going to

1188
01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:03,200
Speaker 1: get to the super Bowl, they have to run it,

1189
01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:07,800
Speaker 1: especially against KC. Tennessee in Baltimore. Like so the answer question, Matt,

1190
01:03:08,040 --> 01:03:10,040
Speaker 1: I would much try to have those running backs go off.

1191
01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:12,160
Speaker 1: I really would any day right now for them and

1192
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:14,760
Speaker 1: to get past those teams that you just mentioned, Kyle,

1193
01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:17,560
Speaker 1: they're also going to have to harass those quarterbacks, most

1194
01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:20,280
Speaker 1: notably Patrick Mahomes. We only have two weeks of evidence,

1195
01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:24,040
Speaker 1: but man, the pass rush look damn impressive last week.

1196
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,600
Speaker 1: Granted they're playing an offensive line that's still trying to

1197
01:03:26,600 --> 01:03:29,600
Speaker 1: get their act together in Miami. Where where do you

1198
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:31,800
Speaker 1: come down on that? Do you think what we saw

1199
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:35,680
Speaker 1: from the pass rush is sustainable going forward? Maybe not

1200
01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:38,160
Speaker 1: to the tune of six sacks and eleven quarterback pressures.

1201
01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:41,720
Speaker 1: But is it sustainable? I hope so, And I think

1202
01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:44,480
Speaker 1: against a quarterback like Heinekey and then look, we're looking.

1203
01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:47,160
Speaker 1: We're looking at the schedule NonStop. They are not playing

1204
01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:50,480
Speaker 1: uh Rogers and Mahomes. Over the next couple of weeks.

1205
01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:53,640
Speaker 1: They got young quarterbacks, they got green quarterbacks. There's this

1206
01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:58,120
Speaker 1: Davis Mills, I guess is the answer. See him. I

1207
01:03:58,200 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 1: know we're seeing him. We're seeing him naturally there Thursday too,

1208
01:04:01,040 --> 01:04:03,040
Speaker 1: he's gonna start, I think for the texts. This is

1209
01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:06,000
Speaker 1: a third round rookie against the Panthers. So he may

1210
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,240
Speaker 1: be the guy. I'll tell you what. I'm the defense

1211
01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:10,480
Speaker 1: who I really like. And I know everybody likes him now,

1212
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:13,760
Speaker 1: but EPINESSA like is the guy. Because Peter Schreeger on

1213
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:17,600
Speaker 1: our show every single year he does ten breakout players.

1214
01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:20,080
Speaker 1: These are the guys who it doesn't necessarily mean they're

1215
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:22,280
Speaker 1: gonna be all pros. They're gonna become names that you

1216
01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:24,400
Speaker 1: don't talk about that now you do. And what I

1217
01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:28,000
Speaker 1: love about Peter's list he doesn't do it based on film,

1218
01:04:28,160 --> 01:04:30,440
Speaker 1: he doesn't do it based on his own gut It

1219
01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:33,520
Speaker 1: is all research based based on talking to gms and

1220
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:35,880
Speaker 1: coaches around the league who are on the teams and

1221
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:39,320
Speaker 1: play against them. Ten names out of hundreds and hundreds

1222
01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:41,760
Speaker 1: of players this year, and he's one of those names.

1223
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:43,920
Speaker 1: Aja'son there. In fact, I think he was even top five.

1224
01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 1: So listen, Schraeger's the guy who said Mahomes was going

1225
01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 1: to be a superstar before he started the game. Other

1226
01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:52,560
Speaker 1: role players like Buddha Baker, great players like that. That

1227
01:04:52,800 --> 01:04:54,240
Speaker 1: was the guy that he picked to be in his

1228
01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:56,520
Speaker 1: top ten. And then you saw it last week, just

1229
01:04:56,600 --> 01:05:00,560
Speaker 1: crushing the quarterback looking great. I'm all over that as well. Hey,

1230
01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:05,360
Speaker 1: if Peter Schrager says it happened, I'm sure he's got

1231
01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:07,720
Speaker 1: to be right. And I mean the game he had

1232
01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:10,040
Speaker 1: in week two was it was really awesome. He's changed

1233
01:05:10,080 --> 01:05:12,640
Speaker 1: his body type, he's gotten to be the type of

1234
01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:16,680
Speaker 1: player that our defense defensive coaches want him to be,

1235
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:19,600
Speaker 1: and it's been proving on the field through two weeks already.

1236
01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:23,440
Speaker 1: But since we're two weeks through the season, what team,

1237
01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:26,800
Speaker 1: in your eyes, has had the most surprising start to

1238
01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:29,680
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty one year. It's a great question, it

1239
01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:32,560
Speaker 1: and yet it is so easy to answer, and it

1240
01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:35,120
Speaker 1: is the silver and Black in Las Vegas, Nevada. I mean,

1241
01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:39,080
Speaker 1: it's not just that the Raiders are two and oh

1242
01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:42,479
Speaker 1: look hood they beat They beat the Ravens who beat

1243
01:05:42,520 --> 01:05:46,720
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, and they beat the Steelers who beat the Bills.

1244
01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:48,880
Speaker 1: So in a way, it's almost like they have these

1245
01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:52,040
Speaker 1: proxy wins over like all of the teams. And listen

1246
01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:54,280
Speaker 1: the fact that they beat Baltimore at home and the

1247
01:05:54,280 --> 01:05:57,360
Speaker 1: opener and everything, it is an unbelievable thing. But then

1248
01:05:57,440 --> 01:05:59,680
Speaker 1: doubled down and go into Pittsburgh. That's the one that

1249
01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:02,040
Speaker 1: you're you know, you know the Raiders. They get hammered

1250
01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:04,120
Speaker 1: in that game. I know that was fun for one week.

1251
01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:06,720
Speaker 1: The Raiders under Gruden are actually a lot like Las

1252
01:06:06,800 --> 01:06:09,840
Speaker 1: Vegas in the sense that they're really instantly exciting and

1253
01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:13,320
Speaker 1: yet lead ultimately unfulfilling, like it's it's a lot of

1254
01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:16,920
Speaker 1: stars and Neon and quick money and all that. But no,

1255
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:20,640
Speaker 1: those are two amazing, amazing wins. And my last nugget

1256
01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,960
Speaker 1: about the Raiders is you see the highlights and it's

1257
01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:26,880
Speaker 1: it's card rugs and all that. They hit the Bejesus

1258
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:29,280
Speaker 1: out of Ben Roethlisberger last week, So much so that

1259
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 1: Ben was getting kind of whiny in the post game,

1260
01:06:31,360 --> 01:06:33,360
Speaker 1: and we know he does that over the years. I

1261
01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:35,480
Speaker 1: think they hit him ten times. It might have been twelve.

1262
01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:40,120
Speaker 1: Las Vegas. The Raiders, they're good. That's say. What you

1263
01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:43,800
Speaker 1: want to know is certainly not fourteen and three, but

1264
01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,240
Speaker 1: two and oh over those two teams, like you can't

1265
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,680
Speaker 1: sneeze that. It's impressive. And that's why I think that

1266
01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:50,840
Speaker 1: the Dolphins are gonna be like, yeah, to just sit

1267
01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:52,640
Speaker 1: down for another week, because we don't want you playing

1268
01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:55,600
Speaker 1: again at Raiders defensive front. Let's put the big body

1269
01:06:55,640 --> 01:06:59,800
Speaker 1: Brissette out there and hope for the best. Stay with

1270
01:06:59,840 --> 01:07:02,760
Speaker 1: me on this story, Kyle. I'm walking my dog last night.

1271
01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:04,760
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful night. Me and my wife are walking

1272
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:06,640
Speaker 1: our dog, who's a little bit nutty, but she's also

1273
01:07:06,680 --> 01:07:10,160
Speaker 1: a scaredy cat. And it's just about dusk. It's getting dark,

1274
01:07:10,560 --> 01:07:13,280
Speaker 1: and we're walking in our development and there are houses

1275
01:07:13,320 --> 01:07:16,640
Speaker 1: that surround a pond, so the frogs and the toads

1276
01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:19,320
Speaker 1: are out and we can't see the sidewalk very well.

1277
01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:21,080
Speaker 1: Tell a difference between a leaf on the ground or

1278
01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:24,280
Speaker 1: a toad. I tell you I'm playing the opposite of Frogger.

1279
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:26,439
Speaker 1: I am hopping out of the way so I don't

1280
01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:29,000
Speaker 1: step on any of them. I swear to God, I

1281
01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:32,520
Speaker 1: kicked two of them. And now here you are bringing

1282
01:07:32,520 --> 01:07:34,480
Speaker 1: back I mean, it was very nice that you already

1283
01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:36,840
Speaker 1: mentioned that choose your own adventure books. I remember those,

1284
01:07:37,040 --> 01:07:39,040
Speaker 1: so thank you for taking me back to that memory.

1285
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:41,720
Speaker 1: But now we're going to Frogger, which is also my

1286
01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:45,560
Speaker 1: wife's absolute favorite video game, and you're doing this on peacock.

1287
01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:50,320
Speaker 1: How exactly did the concept develop where you bring a

1288
01:07:50,440 --> 01:07:55,120
Speaker 1: video game to life? Thank you for the question. All right,

1289
01:07:55,200 --> 01:07:58,040
Speaker 1: So the Frogger TV show is like this. Imagine if

1290
01:07:58,080 --> 01:08:01,040
Speaker 1: you took Madden the video game and made it into

1291
01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:03,040
Speaker 1: real life, it would be an NFL game. It would

1292
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:05,600
Speaker 1: be that big of the leap. This show is as

1293
01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:08,080
Speaker 1: if you took the Frogger old arcade game and did

1294
01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:10,880
Speaker 1: what the NFL does the Madden. It's that huge that

1295
01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:15,640
Speaker 1: real life the Froggers are actual, real contestants, massive massive

1296
01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:19,400
Speaker 1: arenas and courses, and it's so funny. You wouldn't get this.

1297
01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:21,240
Speaker 1: And we've talked for years now you kind of know

1298
01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:23,120
Speaker 1: what I'm about. The moment I knew that I wanted

1299
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:25,320
Speaker 1: to be part of the Frogger TV show. They say

1300
01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:27,160
Speaker 1: they're kind of pitching it, and they're like, so, here's

1301
01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:29,360
Speaker 1: what we're thinking. We would love for you to call

1302
01:08:29,479 --> 01:08:31,760
Speaker 1: the action for us and call it just like it's

1303
01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:34,120
Speaker 1: a football game. But if you could just make lots

1304
01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:36,920
Speaker 1: of eighties movies references and I'm like, you came to

1305
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,799
Speaker 1: the right place. My friends show many where to sign

1306
01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:43,320
Speaker 1: I am in and it is unbelievably it's like, okay,

1307
01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:48,720
Speaker 1: sports competition, eighties action. If you played the Arcade game

1308
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:51,240
Speaker 1: in the eighties, sure watch the show. If you were

1309
01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:53,800
Speaker 1: a Seinfeld fan in the nineties where Constanza played it,

1310
01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:56,160
Speaker 1: watched the show. I watched it with my kids, and

1311
01:08:56,160 --> 01:08:58,000
Speaker 1: this is how sick I am. I watched with my

1312
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:00,200
Speaker 1: five year old and my seven year old. They didn't

1313
01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:02,800
Speaker 1: speak for an entire hour. And I turned to my

1314
01:09:03,200 --> 01:09:06,080
Speaker 1: wife and I go, wow, Babe, look at them. They're riveted.

1315
01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:09,840
Speaker 1: And she goes, no, they're riveted, and I was like, wow, Mike,

1316
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:14,760
Speaker 1: drop my wife's the brain so clear clear this up

1317
01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:17,800
Speaker 1: for me? Are we talking like actual log flumes coming by,

1318
01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:20,800
Speaker 1: like and people have to jump on these things? Yeah, Brown,

1319
01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:23,080
Speaker 1: you gotta watch it. They got it's just like the

1320
01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:26,759
Speaker 1: old video game. There's the cars, you know, and there's

1321
01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:29,679
Speaker 1: like jump from the crocodile to the log and it's

1322
01:09:30,280 --> 01:09:32,160
Speaker 1: it's just like it. And then you get to the

1323
01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:34,280
Speaker 1: lily pad at the end and if you survive with

1324
01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:36,439
Speaker 1: three lives, like you win and you win money. And

1325
01:09:36,439 --> 01:09:39,400
Speaker 1: it's myself and Damon Wayne's junior and it's the most

1326
01:09:39,640 --> 01:09:41,880
Speaker 1: fun I've ever had. I mean, it was so cool

1327
01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:44,640
Speaker 1: and my kids love it awesome. I mean, how do

1328
01:09:44,680 --> 01:09:47,200
Speaker 1: you contain yourself? I feel like if I were hosting

1329
01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:50,439
Speaker 1: a show like that, I would just be in tears

1330
01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:53,599
Speaker 1: laughing at people trying to do this, and I wouldn't

1331
01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:55,920
Speaker 1: be able to get any words out because I laugh

1332
01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:58,760
Speaker 1: at pretty much anything. So how do you keep a

1333
01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:02,960
Speaker 1: straight face through probably not everything, but through some of it. Well,

1334
01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:05,320
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm trying to keep a straight face during

1335
01:10:05,400 --> 01:10:07,160
Speaker 1: a Brownie's story. I'm not trying to step on the

1336
01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:10,759
Speaker 1: frogs or toads glades or something. They had that stuff

1337
01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:14,559
Speaker 1: there in Western New York. Yeah, it was a warm night.

1338
01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:16,880
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, so they were out, they were out.

1339
01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:19,320
Speaker 1: I swear I kicked two of them. I felt terrible,

1340
01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:21,599
Speaker 1: But what are you gonna do don't kick them, and

1341
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:23,759
Speaker 1: it definitaly don't lick them. That goes to weird places.

1342
01:10:23,760 --> 01:10:27,120
Speaker 1: But Matt and answer your question. Um, I wasn't having

1343
01:10:27,160 --> 01:10:30,240
Speaker 1: to control my laughter. My My thing was like, I

1344
01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:32,240
Speaker 1: want to run the course. Let me out on there.

1345
01:10:32,240 --> 01:10:34,439
Speaker 1: I'm a child at heart. Let me climb up the

1346
01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:37,120
Speaker 1: Egyptian period and jump onto the hippo or whatever it was.

1347
01:10:37,439 --> 01:10:39,240
Speaker 1: And they wouldn't let me do it until the show

1348
01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:41,320
Speaker 1: had wrapped all the way at the end, after the

1349
01:10:41,360 --> 01:10:43,320
Speaker 1: whole shoot, I got to do it, and I got

1350
01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:45,280
Speaker 1: to run through the cars and then Lily pads and

1351
01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:48,360
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, I got destroyed that that that

1352
01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,360
Speaker 1: that Dolphins linebacker on the goal line that Moss ran into,

1353
01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:53,479
Speaker 1: that was me getting hit by like a three hundred

1354
01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:56,559
Speaker 1: pound bullfrog on camera. So maybe that will make the show.

1355
01:10:56,600 --> 01:10:58,200
Speaker 1: It was that fun. Yeah, I mean, and you're an

1356
01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:01,160
Speaker 1: in shape guy, so that's surprising to hear that it

1357
01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:05,000
Speaker 1: was that challenging. So man, all right, yeah, we're gonna

1358
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:07,160
Speaker 1: have to see how these contestants too, all right, and

1359
01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:10,200
Speaker 1: when it does that air at a specific time or

01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:25,040
Speaker 1: Coach of the Week for Week three after leading his

1399
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:28,440
Speaker 1: squad to a forty one twelve win over Allegheney Limestone.

1400
01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:33,120
Speaker 1: Salamanca now three and oz on the season. Bartozik joined

1401
01:13:33,160 --> 01:13:36,240
Speaker 1: Salamanca in twenty nineteen was named the athletic director as well.

1402
01:13:36,240 --> 01:13:40,000
Speaker 1: Since rejoining the program, Bartozik has compiled an eleven and

1403
01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:43,280
Speaker 1: eight record, including wins in five of the program's last

1404

Speaker 1: after he led the Eagles to a thirty seven twenty

1406
01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:54,160
Speaker 1: four win over Dansville Wayland Cohocton. The Eagles improved to

1407
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:56,040
Speaker 1: three and o with the victory. Marion has led the

1408
01:13:56,040 --> 01:13:59,280
Speaker 1: Eagles to three league titles and Wayne has advanced to

1409
01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:03,960

1411
01:14:07,160 --> 01:14:10,040
Speaker 1: end for you b back in the day, so nice

1412
01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:14,040
Speaker 1: to see him still here in Western New York. Mattie

1413
01:14:14,080 --> 01:14:18,360
Speaker 1: Glab Chris Brown here joining you on a Tuesday, and

1414
01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:21,760
Speaker 1: we want to get back to the tweet sheet as

1415
01:14:21,840 --> 01:14:24,160
Speaker 1: we have been asking you today and we asked Kyle Brandt,

1416
01:14:24,160 --> 01:14:26,040
Speaker 1: who was just one with us as well. Should the

1417
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:29,839
Speaker 1: Bills continue to employ a more balanced attack with their offense,

1418
01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:35,120
Speaker 1: Veto says, yes, all caps exclamation point, exclamation point. I

1419
01:14:35,120 --> 01:14:37,519
Speaker 1: think it's unrealistic to think Josh and the offense will

1420
01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:40,000
Speaker 1: put up record breaking stats all the time. I would

1421
01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:41,880
Speaker 1: love to see it, but would gladly take a more

1422
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:45,080
Speaker 1: balanced attack to go along with the much improved twenty

1423
01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:48,759
Speaker 1: nineteen looking defense we have been seeing. Here's the only

1424
01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:53,280
Speaker 1: here's the only concern with that, Maddie. When you play

1425
01:14:53,439 --> 01:14:58,000
Speaker 1: teams like the Chiefs, you know, high flying, high scoring clubs,

1426
01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:03,880
Speaker 1: A great running game is awesome because if it's effective,

1427
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:06,200
Speaker 1: it's keeping the ball out of the hands of the Chiefs.

1428
01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:09,000
Speaker 1: But eventually you are going to give it back to them,

1429
01:15:09,040 --> 01:15:13,240
Speaker 1: whether you score or whether you punt and or turn

1430
01:15:13,280 --> 01:15:19,120
Speaker 1: it over God forbid. But knowing their propensity to score points,

1431
01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:23,080
Speaker 1: most people are of the belief, after watching this Chiefs

1432
01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:25,080
Speaker 1: team for the better part of the last four years,

1433
01:15:25,840 --> 01:15:29,559
Speaker 1: you have to throw to beat them and match score

1434
01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:32,320
Speaker 1: for score, and I don't know that you can do

1435
01:15:32,400 --> 01:15:35,840
Speaker 1: that with a truly balanced attack. I don't know what

1436
01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:40,000
Speaker 1: you think, but that's my concern. Yeah, I mean, I

1437
01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:43,360
Speaker 1: agree with that. That's why all we hear is when

1438
01:15:43,400 --> 01:15:45,679
Speaker 1: you play the Chiefs, and all we see is teams

1439
01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:48,439
Speaker 1: try and air it out to like play catchup. They

1440
01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:51,519
Speaker 1: don't need a lot of time on the field in

1441
01:15:51,640 --> 01:15:56,439
Speaker 1: time of possession numbers to score because their drives are quick.

1442
01:15:56,520 --> 01:15:59,240
Speaker 1: They get down the field, they score quick, and then

1443
01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:02,400
Speaker 1: it's time for the opposing team to have a chance.

1444
01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:05,559
Speaker 1: Whether you're running out the clock or not. I don't

1445
01:16:05,600 --> 01:16:09,240
Speaker 1: think it really matters for the Chiefs because they score

1446
01:16:09,439 --> 01:16:14,839
Speaker 1: so quickly and so efficiently, so effectively, drive after drive,

1447
01:16:15,000 --> 01:16:17,360
Speaker 1: that it is hard to keep up if you're just

1448
01:16:17,479 --> 01:16:20,200
Speaker 1: truly running the ball down the field. And if that's

1449
01:16:20,240 --> 01:16:23,360
Speaker 1: what you're gonna go with, I think maybe a balanced attack,

1450
01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:28,800
Speaker 1: maybe not fifty fifty, maybe sixty forty maybe better for

1451
01:16:28,880 --> 01:16:30,840
Speaker 1: the Bills when they face the Chiefs. We'll have to

1452
01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:33,880
Speaker 1: see how that defense is playing. But some of these

1453
01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:37,639
Speaker 1: defenses are gonna make the Bills run, just like Kyle

1454
01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:40,240
Speaker 1: Brant kind of pointed out, and like we saw for

1455
01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:44,080
Speaker 1: the Packers and Lions game yesterday when I was watching

1456
01:16:44,439 --> 01:16:47,800
Speaker 1: the Peyton and Eli broadcast, that's what they were talking about.

1457
01:16:48,120 --> 01:16:51,519
Speaker 1: There were two safeties that were far back and they

1458
01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:56,400
Speaker 1: were saying, this defense is basically like daring Aaron Rodgers

1459
01:16:56,439 --> 01:16:58,360
Speaker 1: to run the ball, and it's really hard for a

1460
01:16:58,479 --> 01:17:02,400
Speaker 1: quarterback to throw what he's good at by the wayside

1461
01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:05,280
Speaker 1: and just have to run the ball over and over again.

1462
01:17:05,320 --> 01:17:07,880
Speaker 1: But that's what the Packers did in the game last night,

1463
01:17:07,920 --> 01:17:10,400
Speaker 1: and they ended up winning that game. I think it

1464
01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:13,479
Speaker 1: takes a lot of mental toughness for a quarterback to

1465
01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:17,280
Speaker 1: be okay with that when that quarterback knows he's a

1466
01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:20,479
Speaker 1: dang good player, and Josh Allen is and I think

1467
01:17:20,479 --> 01:17:24,280
Speaker 1: it takes some mental toughness there and some patience to say,

1468
01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:28,200
Speaker 1: all right, we're just gonna give the rock Tour running

1469
01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:32,639
Speaker 1: backs when the defense lets us. Yeah. Basically the old

1470
01:17:32,680 --> 01:17:35,360
Speaker 1: take what the defense gives you approach, which is what

1471
01:17:35,640 --> 01:17:38,439
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers did in the first half last night against

1472
01:17:38,439 --> 01:17:40,160
Speaker 1: the Lions, and the Bills will probably have to do

1473
01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:42,680
Speaker 1: from time to time. You know, Kyle Brant brought it

1474
01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:45,240
Speaker 1: up in our last segment. I think it's a worthwhile

1475
01:17:45,320 --> 01:17:47,559
Speaker 1: point and something to keep an eye on. The Chiefs

1476
01:17:47,560 --> 01:17:52,639
Speaker 1: defense was very soft against the Ravens this past week.

1477
01:17:52,720 --> 01:17:56,400
Speaker 1: So granted, the Ravens kind of made up for their

1478
01:17:56,400 --> 01:17:59,840
Speaker 1: early turnovers with turnovers late on the Chiefs. The clyde

1479
01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:03,640
Speaker 1: were a lair fumble most noteworthy of among them, and

1480
01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:06,800
Speaker 1: that helped kind of even out the equation. But as

1481
01:18:06,840 --> 01:18:10,080
Speaker 1: soft as the Chiefs played defensively, and maybe it's just

1482
01:18:10,120 --> 01:18:12,200
Speaker 1: a one week thing against the Ravens for what reason,

1483
01:18:12,240 --> 01:18:15,000
Speaker 1: I'm still not quite sure. And they've got some other

1484
01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:18,080
Speaker 1: things that they're doing different from last year. They're playing

1485
01:18:18,160 --> 01:18:21,559
Speaker 1: Chris Jones, a Pro Bowl defensive tackle, at defensive end,

1486
01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:25,360
Speaker 1: and I don't think that's a very effective way to

1487
01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:28,639
Speaker 1: use him. And my only concern is by the time

1488
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:31,280
Speaker 1: the Bills play him, they will have figured that out

1489
01:18:31,600 --> 01:18:34,360
Speaker 1: and put him back in his familiar place inside where

1490
01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:37,680
Speaker 1: he was wreaking havoc in the AFC Championship game. I

1491
01:18:37,720 --> 01:18:42,800
Speaker 1: remember that, So yeah, I think keeping an eye on

1492
01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:46,000
Speaker 1: what the Chiefs are doing defensively is something for fans

1493
01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:48,320
Speaker 1: to kind of just keep in the back of their

1494
01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:52,280
Speaker 1: mind because they still have a huge playmaker and Tyron

1495
01:18:52,320 --> 01:18:55,719
Speaker 1: Matthew back there. But I think they're a little bit

1496
01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:58,599
Speaker 1: different on the defensive side of the ball. How different,

1497
01:18:58,640 --> 01:19:01,439
Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure yet, but after two weeks they

1498
01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:04,439
Speaker 1: don't look like the same defense that we saw in

1499
01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:08,400
Speaker 1: years past with Steve Spagnolo running that crew. So just

1500
01:19:08,439 --> 01:19:10,240
Speaker 1: something to keep in mind and keep an eye on

1501
01:19:10,280 --> 01:19:12,360
Speaker 1: through these next couple of weeks before they come up

1502
01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:16,080
Speaker 1: on the bills schedule. Matt on the tweet sheet says,

1503
01:19:16,520 --> 01:19:21,160
Speaker 1: depending on game specific conditions, opponent defensive trends, and health

1504
01:19:21,160 --> 01:19:24,240
Speaker 1: of the offense, I think the more successful offense is

1505
01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:26,880
Speaker 1: one that can be agile, leaning on the weapons that

1506
01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:29,639
Speaker 1: give us the best ability to score in the moment,

1507
01:19:29,920 --> 01:19:33,200
Speaker 1: whether air or ground attack. Okay, Matt, are you like

1508
01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:36,240
Speaker 1: an academian that is just way too well thought out

1509
01:19:36,600 --> 01:19:39,559
Speaker 1: to appear on the tweet sheet? We aspire to knee

1510
01:19:39,600 --> 01:19:43,920
Speaker 1: jerk reactions, strong opinions. We don't need reasoning like this.

1511
01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:46,720
Speaker 1: This makes too much sense for me. I want I

1512
01:19:46,880 --> 01:19:49,960
Speaker 1: rate people that want something specifically for no good reason.

1513
01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:52,559
Speaker 1: This is a well thought out tweet here. Good job, Matt.

1514
01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:57,559
Speaker 1: Add a boy, Matt, that's what Josh Allen would tell him.

1515
01:19:57,720 --> 01:19:59,360
Speaker 1: We'll give him an ad a boy on that one.

1516
01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:02,559
Speaker 1: Like me when I'm talking about things, my dad always

1517
01:20:02,600 --> 01:20:04,240
Speaker 1: gets mad at me when he listens to me on

1518
01:20:04,280 --> 01:20:06,720
Speaker 1: the radio and he's like, you need to have more opinions,

1519
01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:10,880
Speaker 1: more strong opinions. You just agree with everybody. And I'm like,

1520
01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:16,720
Speaker 1: what's wrong with the green with everybody. Dad. Yeah, he's

1521
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:21,600
Speaker 1: right though, because game conditions may necessitate you run the

1522
01:20:21,600 --> 01:20:23,160
Speaker 1: ball a little bit more. I mean it started pouring

1523
01:20:23,200 --> 01:20:25,880
Speaker 1: rain the second half of the game last week. I

1524
01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:30,920
Speaker 1: don't think it rendered passing games unusable, but it always

1525
01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:32,760
Speaker 1: puts in the back of the mind of a coordinator

1526
01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:35,040
Speaker 1: like well, on ball security, right now, we may want

1527
01:20:35,040 --> 01:20:36,880
Speaker 1: to hold onto it and just run the thing right now.

1528
01:20:37,320 --> 01:20:39,439
Speaker 1: You know, Josh, the ball slips out of his hand,

1529
01:20:39,439 --> 01:20:41,240
Speaker 1: it's an errand pass. Maybe it's going other way for

1530
01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:44,720
Speaker 1: a pick. So that's something to think about opponent's defensive

1531
01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:48,960
Speaker 1: strengths or trends. Yeah, I mean that factors in every

1532
01:20:48,960 --> 01:20:51,280
Speaker 1: week to a game plan and whether you're decide you're

1533
01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:52,840
Speaker 1: gonna try to run the ball or throw it more.

1534
01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:57,320
Speaker 1: The more successful offense is one that can be agile. Yes,

1535
01:20:57,720 --> 01:21:01,160
Speaker 1: which is why I'm Buffalo's to do list. It was

1536
01:21:01,320 --> 01:21:03,920
Speaker 1: run the ball more effectively. It might not mean more,

1537
01:21:04,479 --> 01:21:06,599
Speaker 1: but when you need to turn to it, it has

1538
01:21:06,640 --> 01:21:09,720
Speaker 1: to be there for you to utilize and more importantly,

1539
01:21:10,280 --> 01:21:15,920
Speaker 1: for defensive opponents to respect and play honest against. And

1540
01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:18,160
Speaker 1: fortunately for the Bills, I think through the first two

1541
01:21:18,200 --> 01:21:21,559
Speaker 1: weeks it has done that. It has least checked that box.

1542
01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:24,599
Speaker 1: Where it goes from here, I think is, like Matt said,

1543
01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:28,160
Speaker 1: going to depend on opponent where their strengths are, and

1544
01:21:28,479 --> 01:21:31,200
Speaker 1: maybe quite frankly, what the Bill's offensive line is doing

1545
01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:35,559
Speaker 1: better because they factor into that equation as well. Tiffany

1546
01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:38,320
Speaker 1: on the tweet sheet says being able to attack a

1547
01:21:38,439 --> 01:21:41,400
Speaker 1: defense when they attempt to stop our passing game with

1548
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:44,120
Speaker 1: the M and M brothers Motor and Moss, So look

1549
01:21:44,160 --> 01:21:47,400
Speaker 1: at Tiffany. Coming up with nicknames only makes sense. They're

1550
01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:50,839
Speaker 1: a nice combination of speed and power. Moss's second touchdown

1551
01:21:50,920 --> 01:21:53,800
Speaker 1: run was an angry, powerful run. I'll take a bunch

1552
01:21:53,800 --> 01:21:56,320
Speaker 1: of those the rest of the season. I think we'd

1553
01:21:56,320 --> 01:22:00,599
Speaker 1: all take those, right Manny, Oh yeah, some angry, powerful

1554
01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:04,880
Speaker 1: runs from Zach Moss when he's able to do that.

1555
01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:07,320
Speaker 1: And I want to go back to a point that

1556
01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:12,639
Speaker 1: you made in Matt's answer to the twitter question. Think

1557
01:22:12,640 --> 01:22:15,040
Speaker 1: back to last year when the weather started to change,

1558
01:22:15,040 --> 01:22:18,519
Speaker 1: when I got colder, when it's harder to throw. Maybe

1559
01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:22,080
Speaker 1: in those conditions, I think all of us and Brian

1560
01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:25,880
Speaker 1: day Ball and Josh Allen, everybody was asked about once

1561
01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:29,040
Speaker 1: the weather started to turn in Buffalo, are you guys

1562
01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:31,360
Speaker 1: gonna need to rely on your run game more because

1563
01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:33,880
Speaker 1: the weather's changing, it's getting colder. Are you going to

1564
01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:35,760
Speaker 1: want to run the football more than you're going to

1565
01:22:35,840 --> 01:22:40,200
Speaker 1: pass it? And that was an option that when at

1566
01:22:40,280 --> 01:22:42,640
Speaker 1: least when I thought about it at that point last year,

1567
01:22:42,680 --> 01:22:45,479
Speaker 1: I was like, shoot, if we have to rely on

1568
01:22:45,520 --> 01:22:47,519
Speaker 1: the run here more than we do the pass, I

1569
01:22:47,560 --> 01:22:49,160
Speaker 1: don't know if this team is going to be as

1570
01:22:49,240 --> 01:22:53,000
Speaker 1: effective as they are running the football as they had

1571
01:22:53,040 --> 01:22:56,599
Speaker 1: been with passing the football. So the fact that they're

1572
01:22:56,600 --> 01:23:00,000
Speaker 1: able to do that now will hopefully just help them

1573
01:23:00,120 --> 01:23:04,040
Speaker 1: down the road. I like Andrew's take here on the

1574
01:23:04,080 --> 01:23:06,320
Speaker 1: tweet sheet says the only reason they should keep it

1575
01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:09,160
Speaker 1: more balanced is if Josh Allen looks pedestrian. If he

1576
01:23:09,160 --> 01:23:11,800
Speaker 1: gets back to MVP form, the ball needs to be

1577
01:23:11,840 --> 01:23:14,439
Speaker 1: in his hand the majority of the time. I'll sign

1578
01:23:14,520 --> 01:23:16,679
Speaker 1: up for that. I mean, as soon as Josh starts

1579
01:23:16,680 --> 01:23:20,240
Speaker 1: flashing twenty twenty, Josh, it's time to throw it more

1580
01:23:20,640 --> 01:23:24,160
Speaker 1: because they're an unstoppable force. When he's in that kind

1581
01:23:24,200 --> 01:23:27,800
Speaker 1: of mode. I mean, there's just no stopping what they

1582
01:23:27,800 --> 01:23:29,559
Speaker 1: were doing. That's what we saw on the second half

1583
01:23:29,600 --> 01:23:32,120
Speaker 1: of last season. I mean, they were just putting beatdowns

1584
01:23:32,160 --> 01:23:36,360
Speaker 1: on people hanging thirty burgers weekly, and there was nothing

1585
01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:38,400
Speaker 1: defenses could do about it. I mean, Steve and I

1586
01:23:38,400 --> 01:23:40,320
Speaker 1: ain't talk about it all the time on one Bill's

1587
01:23:40,360 --> 01:23:44,200
Speaker 1: Live here. How many coordinators, defensive coordinators we saw along

1588
01:23:44,240 --> 01:23:46,920
Speaker 1: the sidelines last year that were standing there checking for

1589
01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:50,800
Speaker 1: rain because they didn't have any answers for what Josh

1590
01:23:50,840 --> 01:23:53,160
Speaker 1: Allen was doing to him. So, yeah, if he gets

1591
01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:54,639
Speaker 1: back to that, throw the hell out of the ball.

1592
01:23:54,680 --> 01:23:57,599
Speaker 1: I don't care. Yeah, we want to see him turn

1593
01:23:57,680 --> 01:24:00,680
Speaker 1: into an MVP caliber quarterback the one that he was

1594
01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:03,400
Speaker 1: last year. Like I've said before, it might just take

1595
01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:06,160
Speaker 1: a couple weeks for this offense to get into rhythm,

1596
01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:08,360
Speaker 1: for this passing game to get into rhythm, for our

1597
01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:11,160
Speaker 1: wide receivers to get into rhythm with Josh Allen. And

1598
01:24:11,240 --> 01:24:15,080
Speaker 1: I do think these defenses know him better. I mean,

1599
01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:17,559
Speaker 1: he was doing things last year that he hadn't put

1600
01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:20,559
Speaker 1: on tape. Before he put on tape. Yeah, as we

1601
01:24:20,560 --> 01:24:24,000
Speaker 1: were going throughout the season, but to start the season

1602
01:24:24,040 --> 01:24:25,760
Speaker 1: with some of the numbers that he was putting up

1603
01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:27,280
Speaker 1: and some of the things that he was doing, this

1604
01:24:27,400 --> 01:24:30,040
Speaker 1: was a very new quarterback that we were looking at,

1605
01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:32,440
Speaker 1: and I think a quarterback that a lot of defenses

1606
01:24:32,439 --> 01:24:34,799
Speaker 1: didn't expect that they would have to scheme up against

1607
01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:37,839
Speaker 1: that's been put in the wide open this past season.

1608
01:24:38,560 --> 01:24:41,880
Speaker 1: Defenses know what they're gonna get with Josh, and so

1609
01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:46,360
Speaker 1: defensives have already been limiting what Josh is able to do.

1610
01:24:46,560 --> 01:24:50,080
Speaker 1: The Steelers did it with their zone defense. The Miami

1611
01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:54,240
Speaker 1: Dolphins did it with their corners playing manned defense and

1612
01:24:54,400 --> 01:24:58,040
Speaker 1: limiting our wide receivers to giving Josh Allen really good

1613
01:24:58,120 --> 01:25:00,240
Speaker 1: looks at times. This is going to be be a

1614
01:25:00,280 --> 01:25:03,439
Speaker 1: team that defenses play a little bit better, I think

1615
01:25:03,720 --> 01:25:06,759
Speaker 1: this year, just based on what they know about Josh

1616
01:25:06,760 --> 01:25:10,320
Speaker 1: Allen and our receivers. Now, we'll finish up with Brad

1617
01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:12,559
Speaker 1: on the tweet sheet today, and I think he's a

1618
01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:16,960
Speaker 1: good ending point to finish on here. In terms of

1619
01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:20,080
Speaker 1: Bills being more balanced attack going forward, Brad says the

1620
01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:23,799
Speaker 1: more balanced attack keeps defenses on their heels and forces

1621
01:25:23,840 --> 01:25:25,920
Speaker 1: them to game plan more. You have to have a

1622
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:28,480
Speaker 1: run game in order to succeed in the NFL, especially

1623
01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:32,440
Speaker 1: when trying to close out games late. That's the traditional

1624
01:25:32,640 --> 01:25:34,000
Speaker 1: be able to run it when they know you're going

1625
01:25:34,040 --> 01:25:36,240
Speaker 1: to run it and close the game out anyway, the

1626
01:25:36,280 --> 01:25:39,720
Speaker 1: form in a drill, etc. Etc. Etc. I get all that.

1627
01:25:40,479 --> 01:25:42,880
Speaker 1: I'm just glad that we're seeing a running game that

1628
01:25:42,920 --> 01:25:46,360
Speaker 1: looks like it's going to be at least able to

1629
01:25:46,439 --> 01:25:50,080
Speaker 1: keep defenses honest. They can't just tee off and come,

1630
01:25:50,360 --> 01:25:54,720
Speaker 1: you know, hell or high water. After Josh Allen, you

1631
01:25:54,720 --> 01:25:58,160
Speaker 1: know they can. There's a threat that they may go

1632
01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:00,519
Speaker 1: to something else in the run game and dash them

1633
01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:03,280
Speaker 1: that way. So what they've done through the first two

1634
01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:05,639
Speaker 1: weeks I think is going to pay dividends for their

1635
01:26:05,640 --> 01:26:10,080
Speaker 1: passing game going forward, because defenses have to respect what

1636
01:26:10,320 --> 01:26:13,280
Speaker 1: Zach Moss and Devin Singletary in the offensive line have

1637
01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:15,840
Speaker 1: been able to put on film through these first two weeks.

1638
01:26:17,240 --> 01:26:20,120
Speaker 1: And also it's just been two weeks. Am I convinced

1639
01:26:20,120 --> 01:26:22,800
Speaker 1: that we completely have a run game now through two weeks? No,

1640
01:26:23,080 --> 01:26:26,160
Speaker 1: I think we need more games put together where we

1641
01:26:26,280 --> 01:26:30,520
Speaker 1: see Zack Moss, Devin Singletary, Matt Brita running the ball effectively.

1642
01:26:31,080 --> 01:26:33,080
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be fooled in two games to

1643
01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:36,160
Speaker 1: think like, Wow, here's our run game that showed up.

1644
01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:39,759
Speaker 1: It could be how the defenses have played the Bills

1645
01:26:39,760 --> 01:26:41,800
Speaker 1: in the first two games that have really allowed the

1646
01:26:41,880 --> 01:26:43,880
Speaker 1: run game to take off in the way that it

1647
01:26:43,960 --> 01:26:48,559
Speaker 1: has to give us the sixth best running rushing offense

1648
01:26:48,840 --> 01:26:50,800
Speaker 1: through the first two games. So I think we need

1649
01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:53,960
Speaker 1: to see consistency here going forward when they choose to

1650
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:56,880
Speaker 1: go to the run, that Devin Singletary and Zach Moss

1651
01:26:56,920 --> 01:26:59,600
Speaker 1: can be as effective as they have been in the

1652
01:26:59,600 --> 01:27:02,080
Speaker 1: first two weeks and also pop off some of those

1653
01:27:02,200 --> 01:27:05,120
Speaker 1: long runs that we've seen them each do in the

1654
01:27:05,160 --> 01:27:08,000
Speaker 1: first two games. All Right, Maddie and I have to

1655
01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:10,280
Speaker 1: take a break here, but we will come back to

1656
01:27:10,360 --> 01:27:12,479
Speaker 1: close things up here on a Tuesday edition of One

1657
01:27:12,520 --> 01:27:26,559
Speaker 1: Bills Live. Stay tuned, Welcome back to one Bills Live.

1658
01:27:26,920 --> 01:27:29,479
Speaker 1: As we close up this Tuesday edition of the show,

1659
01:27:30,760 --> 01:27:33,639
Speaker 1: the new power rankings are out across the league. Everybody's

1660
01:27:33,680 --> 01:27:35,679
Speaker 1: got power rankings these days, as you know, Maddy, They're

1661
01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:39,519
Speaker 1: all over the place. Just about every broadcast partner, every

1662
01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:43,479
Speaker 1: internet site has power rankings. After the week of games

1663
01:27:43,479 --> 01:27:47,120
Speaker 1: are through, what we want to present to you is

1664
01:27:47,160 --> 01:27:50,000
Speaker 1: the bills are well, excuse me, my computer is going crazy.

1665
01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:56,240
Speaker 1: The bills are perennially listed, perennially consistently listed in the

1666
01:27:56,280 --> 01:28:00,400
Speaker 1: top ten, which is where they were last week. They're

1667
01:28:00,400 --> 01:28:05,360
Speaker 1: hovering somewhere between four and nine. Maddie and most of

1668
01:28:05,360 --> 01:28:10,200
Speaker 1: the rankings, the teams that are consistently ahead of them Tampa,

1669
01:28:10,360 --> 01:28:16,800
Speaker 1: Kansas City, the Rams, and Baltimore. What do you think

1670
01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:20,160
Speaker 1: of that? Those four teams being consistently listed ahead of

1671
01:28:20,200 --> 01:28:24,360
Speaker 1: the Bills. I think a couple makes sense. The Rams,

1672
01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:27,960
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, the Bucks. I think that makes sense. Did

1673
01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:29,920
Speaker 1: I say the Rams? I meant don't. I don't know

1674
01:28:29,960 --> 01:28:34,479
Speaker 1: if the Rams actually makes sense. Baltimore Chiefs, Bucks that

1675
01:28:34,960 --> 01:28:37,800
Speaker 1: makes sense to me. The Rams not so sure yet. Yeah,

1676
01:28:37,840 --> 01:28:39,920
Speaker 1: I'm okay with the Bucks and Chiefs. I'm not one

1677
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:42,519
Speaker 1: hundred percent on board with Baltimore just yet, because I

1678
01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:44,559
Speaker 1: still think even though the Bills haven't hit their stride

1679
01:28:44,560 --> 01:28:47,519
Speaker 1: on offense, they have a better one than Baltimore does,

1680
01:28:47,600 --> 01:28:50,720
Speaker 1: certainly one that's demonstrated it can be more diversified than

1681
01:28:50,800 --> 01:28:53,360
Speaker 1: Baltimore is. Granted they've had a lot of injuries. And

1682
01:28:53,400 --> 01:28:57,280
Speaker 1: then also with respect to the Rams, they're riding that

1683
01:28:57,400 --> 01:29:00,479
Speaker 1: Stafford wave and I'm not convinced about it yet. I

1684
01:29:00,520 --> 01:29:02,960
Speaker 1: think they will put up points. I just think their

1685
01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:05,080
Speaker 1: defense is a couple of stars and a bunch of guys,

1686
01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:07,080
Speaker 1: and I'm waiting for their defense to kind of the

1687
01:29:07,160 --> 01:29:09,240
Speaker 1: bottom to fall out a little bit from where it

1688
01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:11,920
Speaker 1: used to be. Maddie, appreciate you helping me out here

1689
01:29:11,920 --> 01:29:15,080
Speaker 1: on Monday and Tuesday. You've got some Bill's coverage duties

1690
01:29:15,080 --> 01:29:16,960
Speaker 1: to take care of. On Wednesday and Thursday, I'll see

1691
01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:19,439
Speaker 1: you back here. Friday, we got Eric Wood coming in tomorrow.

1692
01:29:19,720 --> 01:29:20,360
Speaker 1: We'll see you that
