What a game, 28 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: What a game it was. It was an interesting night. 29 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: It wasn't the finally came out over Saw. But I 30 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: do think, Stephen, I blurted this out to you this 31 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: morning and been thinking about it since last night. I 32 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: think Christian Wade's sixty five yard touchdown run in the 33 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: fourth quarter last night was Here we go. Get everybody's 34 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: brace yourselves, because I've been listening to this all morning. 35 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: Here we go, like the most memorable moment in Bill's 36 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: preseason history. At least as long as I've been around 37 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: thirty two thirty four years or so, I can't recall 38 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: a play, especially deep into a game that it was 39 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: so much fun as seeing Christian Wade, in his first 40 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: touch of a football at any level, goes sixty five 41 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: yards for a touchdown and the reaction made it really cool. 42 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: That was unbelievable last night. Yep, you can make that argument. 43 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: I agree. I can't remember. I mean, I've been here 44 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: since nineteen eighty well eighty seven was my first preseason, 45 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: and I don't remember too many times when I was 46 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: I've seen a play make that you know mean that 47 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:35,519 Speaker 1: much and be that highly anticipated. Gosh, I none, maybe 48 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: Josh Allen's first snap, but you know it was an 49 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: incomplete pass. I mean, you go back. I remember Billy 50 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: Joe Hobert. Is that right, Billy Joe Hoo it was 51 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 1: his name, Yeah, BILLI Joe Abert. He came in, he 52 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: came back, We came back in Baltimore, and he led 53 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: us back on a like we were down like four 54 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 1: to three touchdowns. We came back and won that game 55 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: with him at quarterback. That was when I was playing 56 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 1: and we were horrible in the preseason. How about two 57 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: seasons ago with Chicago? That was nice fourth quarter? Remember 58 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: it was a Peterman leading the way for a comeback way. 59 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: I have good fun. I have no clue, but nothing 60 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: equals the genuine enthusiasm, the excitement. There's a great it'll 61 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: be an iconic picture. You can see some of the 62 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: faces here, but there was a great picture taken from 63 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: across the sideline of the reception that Christian Wade got 64 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: from his teammates, mostly the running back crew. I think 65 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: it'll be one of the most memorable pictures in Bill's history. 66 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: Just amazing. Every guy on the sideline needed to come 67 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: up and say something to him. Yeah, you know, they 68 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: were all hugging, jumping up and down, but everybody came 69 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: in whispered a little something to him about how cool. 70 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: And you could just tell that the joy was there. 71 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: It was and it's how how must he have felt. 72 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe it's a good thing or a 73 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: bad thing. He said, Wow, this game is easy. Ye prep, 74 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: I should have stayed playing rugby, right, no challenge, it was. 75 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: It was quite a moment. It was. I think it 76 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: was the moment of the night, no question question. And uh, 77 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: and I'm telling you it might be at least and 78 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: maybe I'm missing something if I am, call up and 79 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: let me know. I think it was the moment of 80 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: Bill's preseason, at least in the last several decades. I 81 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 1: can Yeah, I can't think of one. You're right, Um, 82 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: and it's all about the background, right, Yeah, you know 83 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: the fact that the guy has never played he's a 84 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: he's a rugby star. It's a long shot for him 85 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: to stick around here. Even with the roster exemption. They 86 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: have to get him on the practice squad. First touch, 87 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: I mean incredible a game in a game that didn't count. 88 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: It was a play that had a deep meaning, right, 89 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 1: It was significant and something that a lot of people 90 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: have We got We've been getting tweets from people for 91 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: weeks and months about Christian Way. They know they're pulling 92 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 1: for that guy. They want to see him play. They 93 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: think it's a great story. Came to this country. He's 94 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: got a thick English accent. He was. He walked away 95 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: from a from a very prolific career in another sport 96 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: to give this a shot. And sure enough, you know 97 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: it happened for him. It was. It was pretty awesome. 98 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: Pretty also. You may be right, it may be the 99 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: best moment in Bill's preseason history. It might have been. 100 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: It was amazing last night Christian Wade's a sixty five 101 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: yard touchdown run.

Pretty good defensive performance last night. All the 186 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,319 Speaker 1: way through first quarter, whoever was on the field, it 187 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: seemed like the whole defense seemed to really play well 188 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: and cohesive and kind of what you know, jamos like 189 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: us expect. We expect you guys to be all this. 190 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: But even down the line into the deeper and deeper 191 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,319 Speaker 1: into the roster, the defense really played well the entire night. Yeah, 192 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: you know, our our defensive coordinator, our defensive staff, our 193 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,599 Speaker 1: head coach, you know, even our offensive staff they see that. 194 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,719 Speaker 1: You know, our defense is uh, we're close unit, and 195 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: um we focus on the really small details. And um, 196 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,839 Speaker 1: I think that's what separates us, you know, from from 197 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 1: other organizations is that, you know, we defense is known 198 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 1: to just you just gotta bring it. And and it's 199 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:56,679 Speaker 1: like the small things that we do in practice, and 200 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,319 Speaker 1: you know, everyone holds each other accountable for or the 201 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: little things that we're do in practice. But you know, 202 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 1: not running out the field, make sure you catch every ball, 203 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: making sure that you do stuff after practice, make sure 204 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: you tackle the right way, make sure you do this, 205 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: and it's just like those little things are so important 206 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: to end up to being important things in game time. 207 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: Dan Marlow Bill safety came up with an interception last 208 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 1: night in the win over the Indianapolis Colts. Um, we 209 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 1: were talking with Jordan Poyer Monday this week, I just 210 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: said to look it up and he talked about how 211 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 1: he and Mike had try to disguise coverages and do 212 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 1: a great job of disguising coverages. Does that extend down 213 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 1: the roster? Are you guys able to do that? But 214 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: oh yeah, one hundred percent. You know we we learned 215 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: from you know, Mike and Po and they have so 216 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: much game experience, and um, you know I would say that, 217 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: you know, playing with that duo is just I mean, 218 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: it's it's great, Like you you get to see everything 219 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,719 Speaker 1: that both of them bring to the table, and you know, 220 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: it's just it's like the next man up mentality. Once 221 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: you know they're out, we come up and um, you know, 222 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: things shouldn't change the way that they do, things that 223 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 1: they do, things that we should do them, and you know, 224 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 1: it's just we just go out and make sure that 225 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 1: everything that we do is is to perfect our craft. 226 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 1: So you've got one preseason game under your belt, a 227 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: couple of weeks of camp, you now you're going to 228 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,199 Speaker 1: be back here in Orchard Park except for this next week. 229 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: What are your expectations going down to Caroline.

But what was it What kind of 272 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: culture shock did you go through as a rookie going 273 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,719 Speaker 1: from Queen's New York to Yeah, you're right, it's a 274 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: great question. Coming from Queen's New York City life. Um, 275 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: you know, took the bus to school all the time 276 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: and uh, never never really been in the suburb kind 277 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,719 Speaker 1: of you know area, and um, you're an urban guy, 278 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:41,839 Speaker 1: right right right, and then and then going down to 279 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: uh to JMU. I mean it was Harrisonburg, Virginia. I mean, 280 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: it's a college town, it's farms, it's Kalmanore smells, it's yeah. 281 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: And then coming to Charlotte into another big city, it 282 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: was kind of like city, country city, and then Buffalo City. 283 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,679 Speaker 1: So I'm kind of like it was it was. It 284 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: wasn't such a culture shot, but uh, for the most part, 285 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: you know, I enjoyed and I learned from each place 286 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: how I was at. You're kind of like you're a 287 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: citizen of the world now, right. We've been different regions, 288 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: different climates, and different teams as well. Although the football 289 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 1: has kind of carried you throughout what you know, what 290 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: are your expectations personally? You know, what are you looking 291 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: at this year? How do you how do you view 292 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: it this year? Um, you know, I've obviously had previous injuries, 293 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: Um that held me back from my career twenty sixteen 294 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: and twenty seventeen, and um, you know, I'm just I 295 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: have a different mindset now and I'm just you know, 296 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: at first, take care of my body and making sure 297 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: that you know, my body's like like a car. I mean, 298 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: if it doesn't put the right gas in it, you 299 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: know it won't it won't go. And um uh that's 300 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 1: that's just, man, my main thing. And for me, just 301 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 1: just stacking days and making sure that I can improve 302 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 1: every day on something new that I that I lack 303 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 1: in and or something that I need to look better at, 304 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: or just just something. This is the small things because 305 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, football is football, and um, 306 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: you got to make players when you're on the field, 307 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: and but those little things can become big things. We've 308 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: been talking on this show about preseason the last couple 309 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: of days going into game one Less saying about how 310 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: obviously games don't count, but it matters. It matters that 311 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: you got to pick in that game less say, right, 312 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: yea hun. I think if it's when I'm in practice 313 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: and I have a pick a force fumble or if 314 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: I didn't think I ran into the ball fast enough, 315 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: I think that matters, um and I think that matters 316 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: for our team. And then preseason game number one interception 317 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: that matters. You know, can I have made a tackle 318 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: that didn't make it matters? And I just feel like 319 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: whether it's preseason, whether it's practice, whether it's training camp 320 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: day two, whether it's a super Bowl, whether it's something, 321 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: I just think anytime you're on the field always matters. 322 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: It's been my thought. Everybody says, what do you think 323 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: about that first preseason game? What are your thoughts? And 324 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: for me and I know, it's kind of crazy to 325 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: say it was almost the perfect preseason game, because certainly 326 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: it was positive. There's a lot of good play. Your 327 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: play was a positive can Wade the quarterbacks and running 328 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: backs that you know, you saw a lot of great things. 329 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: But there's still a ton of stuff to build on 330 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: as well. So it's while there's you know, it wasn't 331 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: perfect by any stretch of the imagination, planning to be 332 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: positive about and some specific things to work on. So 333 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: it's almost the perfect scenario. Win the game, yea, look 334 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: good doing it. The you know, the defensive side of 335 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: the ball looked solid, and the offense showed a little 336 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: growth with a lot of optimism. And it's maybe some 337 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: big mistakes that can be easily correct. It's almost the 338 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: perfect scenario going forward, yep. And we just need to 339 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: keep building. I mean, offensively, we do a great job, 340 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: you know, giving the defense a great look with their 341 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: with their offense, and you know, our defense gives an 342 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: offense a great look, and our special teams units Heath 343 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: does a great job, and you know, pushing for the 344 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: small things. And I think that we've you know, we 345 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: laid a good foundation out since the day we walked 346 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: in to Saint John Fisher and it just needs to 347 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: continue from now all the way into the end of season. 348 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: We talked to a little bit Steve an Idea about 349 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: the the sixty five yard time round break.

Yeah, how about it? 425 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: Sixty five yards? And actually it was a great cutback run. 426 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: Looked he wound up going up the middle, but he 427 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: started the old left And well, you're the former rugby 428 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 1: star Western what did he see and what did he 429 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: get the instincts to see that play play out like 430 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,360 Speaker 1: that for him as a rugby play. And he said 431 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 1: in his post came comm as he is. I saw 432 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: a bunch of guys. It ain't rocket science. When you 433 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: get the ball in your hand, if they're all over there, 434 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: you run over here, you know. And he stuck his 435 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: foot in the ground and cut up and had to 436 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: make one more cut after that to the back side 437 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: of the play. And when he turned it up. I thought, okay, 438 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 1: they I thought a guy had an angle on him, 439 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: and then he didn't. He just outran him and it 440 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: was a great. It was not it's a nice little run. 441 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 1: Well blocked up front, no question, but he man, the 442 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: instincts came out. He just turned it up. And it 443 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: was funny too because he took the handoff a little funky. Yeah, 444 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: it wasn't a clean crisp pandoff, so you know, he's 445 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: still working on that. But he got it, gathered it in, 446 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: tucked it up high and tight. Man, he was off. 447 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 1: It was great.

Hello, Fran, 459 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: Are you there? Frand's not there? The tweet sheet brought 460 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 1: you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official movers of the 461 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills from sipping the kool aid, our is this 462 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 1: is double exclamation part. Our defensive depth is incredible. When 463 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: we have to cut down to the fifty three man roster, 464 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: McDermott and Bean will have some tough decisions. They will 465 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 1: have to cut several really good players. You made the point, Steve, 466 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 1: in our discussion with Dean Marlow that the strong defensive 467 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: play continued through the twos thro the threes. For the 468 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: most part, the defense was solid most of the evening 469 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: until it got you know, the only lapse they had 470 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 1: was on Chad Kelly's bootleg off the right side where 471 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,360 Speaker 1: he got loose for a big, long touchdown run. Other 472 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: than that, they were they were on it, particularly in 473 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 1: the early going. There was a one point they had 474 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 1: seven rushes for six yards in the game. They were 475 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: stout up front, the really stout up front, I thought. 476 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: Darryl Johnson, the seventh round draft pick, showed up in 477 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: a way I hadn't seen. I had told you i'd 478 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,959 Speaker 1: seen him covering kicks and he was doing a really 479 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 1: nice job. But last night he got a sack on 480 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 1: a straight rush, just came off the edge and got 481 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: there and got there in a hurry. So there was 482 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: a lot to like about that game last night. And 483 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 1: I was telling Dean when it was Dean Marlow was 484 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: here just a moment ago. It was almost the perfect 485 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: for guys like you and me, and for fans who 486 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 1: were kind of discerning. In my opinion, it was almost 487 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: a perfect scenario for a preseason game. Number one, great 488 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: play for most of the night, nice solid football to watch, 489 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: not too complicated at all, but still plenty of big 490 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: mistakes that are easily correctable, Lots to be optimistic about, 491 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: a lot of things you got to work on. But 492 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 1: still there was a lot there that really looked like 493 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 1: they were getting it together. Let's start with the defense, 494 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: and let's hear what John McDermott had to say about 495 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: his Buffalo defense as solid. First half of the Buffalo defense. 496 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 1: They gave up what one decent play in the first half, 497 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 1: but for the most part they had them locked down. 498 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: I mean the cultimate a first down in their first possession, 499 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: I think their second play, and went three or four 500 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: series without another first down, a lot of three and 501 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 1: out series. Bills gave up a total of eighty five 502 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: offensive yards in that first half of play, and it 503 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: was pretty amazing. I was strong they were defensively. Sean 504 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: McDermott took note of that when he addressed the media 505 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: after the game. No, there's a certain players I know 506 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,120 Speaker 1: we want back, but had a couple of different situations 507 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 1: that came up in the game, whether it was a 508 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 1: short field, sudden change. You know, I thought we did 509 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 1: a good job. They're keeping them off the board, keeping 510 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: them out the end zone. Red zone defense in particular 511 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,120 Speaker 1: was strong in the first half and I think most 512 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: of the way through the third as well. So that 513 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,120 Speaker 1: was good to see that. That's a good teachable moment 514 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: for our football team. Yeah, red zone defense the issue 515 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 1: that they talked about here on our show several times 516 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: during the offseason. Red zone defense was solid for the 517 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: first two defensive units. Yet yeah and that and yeah, 518 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: it's you know, you can tell with their focusing on it, 519 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 1: just like they've told us, they it's been a foot 520 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 1: point of emphasis for this year's squad. They can one way, 521 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: they can get vastly better. Saw it last night, I 522 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 1: mean they gave up I think it was one hundred 523 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: and five yards rushing last night, and thirty eight of 524 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: it or thirty five of it was on the one 525 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: run late in the fourth quarter to Chad Gather quarterback 526 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: one five total. Yeah, they played really solidly up front, 527 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 1: and they had some chances for some flash plays as well. 528 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissette dat dodged Trent Murphy with his arm around 529 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: his waist, and two steps later he dodged Ed Oliver 530 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: with his arm around his waist. So Jacoby Brissette and 531 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: his athleticism saved him from a sack twice on the 532 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: same play. Yeah, the Bill's defense not too much to 533 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 1: be upset about, right, I want to talk about some 534 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 1: of the young defenders draft picks who made their mark 535 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 1: last night. But let's work in a couple of calls here. 536 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,959 Speaker 1: We'll start with Fran and Buffalo back again. Fran, Are 537 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 1: you there this time? A little? Fran? All right? Not 538 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: sure what's going on. We're struggling with our phones this week. Yeah, 539 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: what is the deal with hold? I'm looking I'm all 540 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 1: set here, I hope, so we'll get it. We're gonna 541 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 1: we'll be able to take calls at some point in 542 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 1: the near future. We'll have to. Maybe we're not paying 543 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: our bill back end of the bill's draft. Some defensive picks, right, 544 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:57,360 Speaker 1: And I thought they acquitted themselves pretty well in last 545 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: night's game. And let's start with some of them. Louting 546 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: A seventh round pick, Daryl Johnson, North Carolina A and 547 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:07,880 Speaker 1: T six seven physical specimen. He's not quite filled out yet, 548 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: got a lot of playing time, right. He was out 549 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,879 Speaker 1: there with the twos and actually worked in with some 550 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 1: of the ones, made, had a sack, made a playing 551 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: And you said you noticed him in kick coverage earlier, right, which, well, 552 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: I noticed him in training camp during kick on and 553 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: he was on the field for kick coverage last night 554 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: as well and running down In fact, he was. He 555 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: was on the field at defense and then started playing. 556 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,159 Speaker 1: Had to keep playing punt team as well, so and 557 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 1: punt return team. So he was getting the workout last night. 558 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: And I think they're gonna get a real chance to 559 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: evaluate him. I know he was getting It's interesting too, 560 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: because I didn't get a chance to watch him individually. 561 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 1: I just saw him walking off the field after the 562 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: punt team or the special teams. You know, it was 563 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: coming off and I want to I want to see 564 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: the kind of effort he put in after he just 565 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 1: had a really nice defensive series, you know, because that's 566 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,360 Speaker 1: it all counts. You gotta turn it up. And Heath 567 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 1: far was going to be watching the kicking game. Yeah, 568 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: and if he's out out there and he's not given 569 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: a full effort and he doesn't care if he was 570 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: on the field for three plays before that, you know, 571 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 1: let's go. And so it's all important. But you know, 572 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 1: I thought Darryl Johnson was a guy who we found 573 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: out a little something about last night. He flashed, he 574 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: got a sack, he was up there and he was 575 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: had had a batted pass or something like that too. 576 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 1: I can't remember. He was forcing, he was really for it. 577 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: He had a couple of hurries maybe as well. I mean, 578 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,439 Speaker 1: he was all over the backfield. He really showed up 579 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: big time, and I was I gotta say, I was 580 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: a little surprised by by the fact that he was 581 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: having so much success. I guess in Indianapolis Colt offensive 582 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,880 Speaker 1: line that is I think has pretty good depth as well. 583 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: So that's one guy that flashed to me that I 584 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: was like, Okay, you know, I like that guy well, 585 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: and so we'll see. And of course he caught my 586 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: eye because of the special team stuff. Earlier in the week. 587 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: He had three tackles, he had his seventh round pick, 588 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: by the way, in his first NFL game, three tackles, 589 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 1: one sack for eight yard, one tackle for loss, one 590 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 1: quarterback hit, one pass defense, he tipped a pass. He 591 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 1: was good. John McDermott. Notice here's what the head coach 592 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: said about Darrel in his first preseason game last night. Yeah, 593 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: that's what you're looking for, young guys that show up, 594 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: guys that aren't necessarily starters. And he showed up. I 595 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: felt him, you know, from the coming off that edge 596 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: and doing different things in the run game as well. 597 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: And that's again just in the first game, positive returns 598 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: from a young player that um, you know, had the 599 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: mental toughness and and you know went out there and 600 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 1: performed at a high level. And you know, they appreciate 601 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: what he did last night. But as you point out, 602 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: and I think if you're one hundred percent right, they 603 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: need to see more. They're gonna want to see more 604 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: they're gonna want to see progression in the next three games. 605 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 1: Progression and consistency. And you got guys who and this 606 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 1: is what I think about too, if you're end up 607 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: talking in the broadest general terms and it goes all 608 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: the way down to an individual player, particularly young guys, 609 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: because the veterans get this. You want to see it's 610 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: a little bit of it. I always say that use 611 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: the word roller coaster. You'll see a great like Daryl 612 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 1: Johnson will go out and have a great game like that. 613 00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: He'll do all kind and then the next game he'll 614 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 1: disappear and he'll get man handled and he won't get 615 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: near the quarterback or any of that stuff. Or he'll 616 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: have a big mistake where he lines up wrong and 617 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: does it takes the wrong path or something an egregious mistake. 618 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: You want to see him. Cut the bad plays off 619 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: the bottom of the roller coaster and flatten the line 620 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: out and raise it so you're consistently above where you 621 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: usually play and with no dips in your performance. You 622 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: don't want to have a bad play here and there. 623 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: It's okay to have a play where you don't make 624 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: the play, but you do what you're supposed to do, 625 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: and somebody else does make the play. That's a good play. 626 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: It's okay, make the plays that come to you and 627 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: don't make any egregious mistakes. That's what a pro and 628 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: a veteran does. He's never a liability at any point. 629 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: And these young players they get in there and they'll 630 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: make a flash play once in a while. Then and 631 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: when you're not watching, or we're not watching the game film, 632 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: you won't see the fact that, wow, he made a 633 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: Wow what's he doing over here? Right? It doesn't show 634 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: up in the play because somebody else does what they're 635 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: supposed to do, or it's away from him. But that's 636 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: the kind of thing that a young player will do 637 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 1: that only film study can kind of show it up, 638 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: and you know what he's supposed to be asked to do, 639 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 1: and over here he did it, made a great play, 640 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: but he was asked to do something here and he disappeared. 641 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: So consistency, like you said, consistency is crucial because coaches 642 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: love what they know they can count on. That's why 643 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: they bring other players from other teams. That's why a 644 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: guy like Dean Marlow's here, That's why Kurt Coleman is here, 645 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: Sean McDermot knows what those guys are. That's why they 646 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: don't have Lashawn McCoy in the game. He's not a 647 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: question mark. You know that coaches want to know what 648 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 1: they got, and they don't know what they got. When 649 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 1: a guy is all over the map, you daver really 650 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: try another call a double dog? Are you all right? 651 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 1: What's more? Fran and Buffalo? Hello, Fran, go ahead, you're 652 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: on the air. Oh, hey, there you are, Fran, thanks 653 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: for coming up. Hello? Are you there? Where we are? There? Fran? Now, 654 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: Fran can't hear us? And I have done plague? John, 655 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 1: I know your brother Paul over Buffalo. Yeah, yeah, Paul's 656 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 1: the North Buffalo guy. How do you know him? Yeah? 657 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: My daughter went to school with his daughters over at 658 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: Saint Rose. Yeah. But anyway, the biggest memory I have 659 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: is back in maybe sixty nine seventy Aames Harris, number twelve, 660 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: the first black quarterback ever to start in the NFL game. 661 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: He ran a fifty five yard quarterback Steve Well in 662 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: a preseason game. Wow, I think it was a preseason game. 663 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: I remember that. We'll getting old here, but season. That's 664 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: a good memory. I bet that where was that home. 665 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: Was it a home game? I think it was a 666 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 1: home game. I think Van Miller I think it was 667 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: there too, I believe. I guess he would be Yeah, 668 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: that's amazing. Wow, that's looked that up. That was that 669 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: would that would rival this, I guess right back then. 670 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: I mean, it was a big deal for James Harris 671 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: to be a starting quarterback in the NFL. It was it. 672 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 1: I think that Jack kemp came in and came in. 673 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 1: They uh, well, he started his first game. And I 674 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: think it was Jack Kemps last year that he came 675 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: in and finished the game for him and James Harris 676 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: went off to a couple other teams. Yeah, yeah, sure 677 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: and stuff. That's a good one, fran. See you gotta 678 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: go all the way back to sixteen, nine seventy for somebody, right, 679 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: but you don't think about that. That would have been big. Yeah, 680 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: first African American player to start at quarterback for a 681 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: team and he snaps off a fifty six yards quarterback. 682 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: I wish I would remember that. Wow, that's amazing, all right, 683 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 1: fran Yeah, that's got to be in the conversation there 684 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: is marking Town Wan to Hello, Mark, Welcome, You're on 685 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: the air with us. Hey, guys, thanks for having me on. Sure. Um, yeah, 686 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: last night was pretty cool to watch. I'm not buying 687 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: all the Chad Kelly hype. I think he's done quite 688 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 1: a few things here to kind of embarrass the city. 689 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 1: But I thought someone that stood on the bills was Thompson. 690 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: I don't know his first name, but he seemed to 691 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: be in on every single play. Thompson Thompson he played 692 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: here last year? Did he? Yeah? Yeah, but it started 693 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: against the Patriots. Had nine tackles at New England back 694 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:08,320 Speaker 1: in December. But I had question was there anything to 695 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,359 Speaker 1: Harrison Phillips. He seemed to be in on every defensive snap, 696 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:13,240 Speaker 1: And I don't know if that was done on purpose 697 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 1: or what they were trying to do with him last 698 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 1: night to kind of maybe get him going a little bit, 699 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:20,760 Speaker 1: No question, I noticed the same thing Mark Harrison. Phillips 700 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,240 Speaker 1: was in early in the game, and he was also 701 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: in late in the game. He played a lot of 702 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 1: defensive snaps last night, A defensive tackle. I don't know 703 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: what that says about their rotation or what their plan is, 704 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:33,720 Speaker 1: but there's no doubt they did it on purpose because 705 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: I didn't hear about anybody getting hurt on the defensive line, 706 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: like he was taking somebody else's reps. So I think 707 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: it was part of the plan. But Harrison Phillips, I'll 708 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: agree with you. I noticed late in the game he 709 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:49,359 Speaker 1: was in in the fourth quarter playing a defensive tackle spot. Yeah. Hey, 710 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: I heard what the callers said about Jed Kelly, and 711 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: I understand that, I guess, But I thought Jed Kelly 712 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 1: was pretty solid last sight, and I was happy for him. 713 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 1: You know, he needs to he needs to rebound. He 714 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: needs to be a reclamation project here. And the way 715 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 1: he played, I think he took steps forward. The run 716 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,320 Speaker 1: was great, but I just thought he was delivering the 717 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 1: ball with accuracy and with some authority, and I think 718 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 1: it was a good ounting for check Kelly. You can see, 719 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,800 Speaker 1: in fact, my radio partner Eric Woodtoker about it. You 720 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 1: can see why first Clemson and then Old Miss wanted him. 721 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 1: He's got a real live arm and he showed it 722 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 1: last night. So I was happy for him. I was 723 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 1: happy for check Key, and the Kelly family is happy 724 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: to see Jim there enjoying it. I have the other 725 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: I've been around, not quite as long as you, but 726 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 1: a long time I've known a lot of people who 727 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: I really admired and loved who were train wrecks in 728 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 1: parts of their lives. I cheer. I cheer for him 729 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 1: because I will admit it. I cheer for Buffalo people, 730 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 1: whether their train wrecks or not, whether their ups or downs. 731 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 1: I have feel connection to him. Chad Kelly's a kid 732 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: that I watched play as a prep star here in Buffalo. 733 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: He had problems then, and we here in Buffalo know 734 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: about him more so than anybody else around the country. 735 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,399 Speaker 1: Even you go out to Denver, we know more about 736 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:07,399 Speaker 1: Chad than they do. I'm cheering for him, and I'm 737 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: not gonna apologize for it. I've been I've been around 738 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: the blocks too many times myself to be looking at him, 739 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,840 Speaker 1: let alone, you know, cheering against him. So yeah, I 740 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,760 Speaker 1: cheer for him. I hope, I hope he puts together 741 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:25,280 Speaker 1: a really nice pro career, if not a great pro career. 742 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 1: And I get it, some people are, you know, down 743 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 1: on because he got so many chances for whatever reason, 744 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: and maybe they didn't get a second chance just once 745 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 1: in their life. And I know it's not fair like that, 746 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 1: But I said last night on the broadcast one of 747 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,799 Speaker 1: the reasons he's gotten so many opportunities is it's twofold one. 748 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 1: He's got some ability. And we've all seen that throughout sports, 749 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: in every sport, if a guy's got some abilities, they're 750 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: gonna give him a second chance, third chance, fifth chance. 751 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 1: And the second thing is and the thing that a 752 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: lot of people don't realize that when it's in a 753 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 1: football field, actors field, or whatever. Even when he's not 754 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: on the football field, he works extremely hard. He's a 755 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,200 Speaker 1: really hard worker on the field. He works hard in practice, 756 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,760 Speaker 1: he works hard in the weight room. When his football related, 757 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 1: He's pretty committed, and he gets the most out of 758 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 1: his abilities. Those that's why he keeps getting chances. And 759 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: I know people have a problem with seeing people go 760 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: through the trials and tribulations that Chad has gone through 761 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 1: through his life, and they say, why does he keep 762 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:28,880 Speaker 1: getting chances? Why does he keep getting chances? For me, 763 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 1: I'm not like that. I've gotten a chance or two 764 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: in my life and i've and I've tried not to 765 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:36,800 Speaker 1: get into position where I needed a second chance or 766 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 1: a third chance. So I'm pulling for him, and it's 767 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,359 Speaker 1: just like I pulled for everybody who's struggled in their life. 768 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 1: I thought he played well, didn't you overall very well? 769 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say well. I thought he played very well. 770 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 1: He might have been. I might have liked him better 771 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: than any the other guy, including Jacoby Pursett. I mean, 772 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 1: Jacoby didn't ask get As to throw the football around 773 00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: very much. But Chad Kelly had better production other quarterback 774 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 1: that they put out there. Of course he was it 775 00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: was the fourth quarter of the first preseason game, so 776 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:07,919 Speaker 1: he wasn't playing against Ed Oliver and Starlow to Lela 777 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 1: or Trent Murphy and those guys. But he played with 778 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: the guys who are out there. He looked as good 779 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: as anybody they had taken snaps. Let's take a call 780 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:19,839 Speaker 1: here from Jim in Marilla. Hello, Jim in Marilla, you're 781 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: on the air with this. How you doing, gentlemen? Doing well? 782 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 1: I'm hoping that you can clarify something that I heard 783 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 1: on WBEAN News this morning about Christian ways. What I 784 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: heard this morning was the Christian way. Is that some 785 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 1: kind of a program whereby he's not eligible to play 786 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:49,320 Speaker 1: in the NFL on our team. And I can't explain 787 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 1: it anymore what I heard, But can you clarify what 788 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 1: his position is as far as being eligible or if yeah, 789 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: you know, I looked it up and here he's he 790 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,479 Speaker 1: does not count as part of the ninety man roster. 791 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 1: Now he's ninety one, the Bills get an exemption for him. 792 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 1: He is carried on that exemption until the end of 793 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: camp final cutdown day. If he does not make the 794 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: fifty three man roster, and he can, he can be 795 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: named to the fifty fifty three minion roster in the 796 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 1: final cuts. But if he is not, the Bills get 797 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: an international player practice squad exemption. They can keep him 798 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 1: as an eleventh practice squad player and he cannot play 799 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 1: for any other on any other team's active roster in 800 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, so he can make the team. Willie, I 801 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,879 Speaker 1: don't know what I hear's the thing, and I yeah, 802 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 1: he could make the team if he plays well, and 803 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: if if he every time he touches the ball he 804 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: runs for a sixty five yard touchdown, he's gonna make 805 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:43,320 Speaker 1: the team. But if if he doesn't make the team, 806 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 1: I from the rumblings I've heard and the thoughts they 807 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: have about him, they're gonna keep him around all year 808 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,839 Speaker 1: on the practice squad because he's a free he's an 809 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,759 Speaker 1: extra roster spot, and obviously he's got some ability, so 810 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 1: they're gonna try their best to develop him and get 811 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: him good enough to play in the NFL on the 812 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: regular roster a year from now. We're going to Carolina 813 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 1: this next next week, and they have a player who 814 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: was on the same program, who Christian Wade knows very well. 815 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 1: And I cannot remember the kid's name. Now. I covered 816 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 1: the Panthers last year in a game where he came 817 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 1: in and it was his first NFL game. He had 818 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 1: been on their practice squad for a year and then 819 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 1: from He's from London, Okay, But his story was and 820 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,200 Speaker 1: I cannot remember his name and Ogba No, that's not right. 821 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 1: I'll look it up. He came Obada, that's it, Fie Obada, Okay. 822 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 1: He came in from London. Now, his mom and he 823 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,719 Speaker 1: were from and I want to get the country. I 824 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 1: think it was from Ethiopia. They and then they were 825 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:55,359 Speaker 1: in Switzerland and he emigrated to London and was part 826 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: of a scam that was trafficking human beings. He was 827 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 1: a victim of human afficking just so they would these 828 00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,359 Speaker 1: people would get a fee for taking you to another 829 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 1: country and then abandoned you. He was a kid abandoned 830 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 1: on the streets of London. He fell into their social 831 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 1: services program, finally got corral and taken in and taken 832 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,359 Speaker 1: care of and went through was like a soccer player 833 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 1: and rugby player, got into football, got into the international 834 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: path Player Pathway program for the NFL, ended up with 835 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 1: it Carolina Panthers for a year on their practice squad, 836 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 1: and then his first game he came out and got 837 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 1: two sacks in the game that I covered. Wow, he 838 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 1: knows Christian Wade, and that's probably one of the things 839 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 1: that inspired Christian Wade to say, maybe I should give 840 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 1: that a shot. So that's the kind of player that 841 00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:46,239 Speaker 1: Christian Wade could be and kind of wants to be. 842 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 1: That path toward an NFL career. He walked away from 843 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 1: a very nice rugby career, an international rugby career, and 844 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,839 Speaker 1: now Christian Wade's gonna be over here. And I don't 845 00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 1: know if you heard Christian Wade's thoughts after the game. 846 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 1: He didn't know what to do after he scored the touchdown. 847 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:03,919 Speaker 1: He thought he maybe jump in and had to touch 848 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:05,759 Speaker 1: the ball down like you do in rugby, and he 849 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 1: had to go back out for the try because in rugby, 850 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 1: when you touch the ball in the end zone, you 851 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:12,840 Speaker 1: go straight out from that point and that's where you 852 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: try to try from, whether it's if it's off of 853 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 1: the side, you got to go all the way to 854 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:18,840 Speaker 1: the sideline to kick the try. So he didn't know 855 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 1: what to do. So he that's how much he's got 856 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 1: to learn. So a year on a practice squad that 857 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: with the NFL would do wonders for his ability to 858 00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:29,919 Speaker 1: feel comfortable when he's out there and do more things 859 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 1: for the team. Taking a handoff and running is one thing, 860 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:37,839 Speaker 1: but pass blocking, route running, pass catching, pass pro that's 861 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,760 Speaker 1: all stuff he needs to learn. So yeah, it's an 862 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: enormous program that the NFL is a part of. There's 863 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 1: a lot of guys who were kind of trying to 864 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 1: take part at it. They have tryouts. If the guy's 865 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: athletic enough, he goes to the pool, the team will 866 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: look at him and saying, hey, okay, we'll take him. 867 00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 1: And the Buffalo Bills did that with Christian Wade. We're 868 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,839 Speaker 1: gonna hear from Christian Wade his comments in the locker 869 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 1: room when we return, Come on back for that One 870 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,839 Speaker 1: Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health.

Here's what he had 883 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,279 Speaker 1: to say in the locker room last night. First ever 884 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 1: touch as a football player, and it parted like the 885 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:58,840 Speaker 1: red Sea for you. Yeah, it was crazy, fussy, I 886 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,040 Speaker 1: was out in there. But to me, because of the 887 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 1: way that training instructed to me, like it's kind of 888 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 1: like all the same because we wrapped it in training 889 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:11,040 Speaker 1: and like learned about the reads and like what to 890 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 1: do if this happens and go through the different scenarios 891 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,919 Speaker 1: for me when I was in the game today, that's 892 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,399 Speaker 1: exactly what I tried to fold through it. But yeah, 893 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 1: it opened up like he said, I kind of I 894 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,160 Speaker 1: knew where I was going even before the ball came 895 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,879 Speaker 1: because they overloaded one side, So I was like, I'm 896 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:28,759 Speaker 1: definitely going up there. And as soon as I got 897 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,840 Speaker 1: the ball, I was off to the races and I 898 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:33,360 Speaker 1: was looking up the screen to see if any of 899 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 1: the linebackers as anyone was coming up behind me, because 900 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 1: I know you got the best athletes in the world here, 901 00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,760 Speaker 1: like just as fast as any running backs and wide receivers. 902 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 1: So I was making sure I'll protect my tail and 903 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:46,799 Speaker 1: just just trying to get to the end zone. Did 904 00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 1: you know what you're gonna do once you got there, 905 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:49,959 Speaker 1: Like if you have in your mind free planting anything 906 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 1: like that. I did. I had it all planned out. 907 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:52,800 Speaker 1: I was. I was like, when I get to the 908 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:54,840 Speaker 1: end zone, I'm gonna put the ball down like Rugby. 909 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 1: I was thinking I might even dive like Rugby, and 910 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 1: I thought I could hurt myself away his pads um. 911 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, once I got closer, I just slowed down 912 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 1: and then I turned around because I'm so used to 913 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: like the conversion in rugby, and I was just like 914 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,399 Speaker 1: running back to the halfway and getting ready to go again. 915 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 1: I was kind of like looking around like I didn't 916 00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 1: know what to do.

Spectacular faces everybody. I mean, 948 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,000 Speaker 1: it was amazing. It was an amazing moment. I've never 949 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 1: seen anything like it. It was a moment um I well, 950 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:59,040 Speaker 1: you and I haven't witnessed. Um. And it was a 951 00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,759 Speaker 1: great run, great play, well blocked and he did he 952 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 1: took in the house. And not for nothing. He's got 953 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:11,320 Speaker 1: some some wheels, you know he is. He his instincts 954 00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:14,319 Speaker 1: were right on point. He did it like he'd been 955 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,359 Speaker 1: doing it all his life. You didn't You couldn't tell 956 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,440 Speaker 1: that was the first time he'd ever touched a football 957 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:21,759 Speaker 1: in any kind of game, not not when he was 958 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:24,359 Speaker 1: eight years old, like so many American kids, and when 959 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,400 Speaker 1: you've been doing it since you were eight, nine, ten 960 00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 1: years old. That's the first time he's ever put a 961 00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:33,239 Speaker 1: helmet on in a real game. And he looked like 962 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:34,920 Speaker 1: he'd been doing it for a long long time. And 963 00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 1: good for him. It was. It was a special moment, 964 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 1: and I think a testament to the to the club 965 00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 1: and the guys in the locker room and the coaching staff. 966 00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: They all realized what a special moment it was. Take 967 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 1: one call on Christian Wade from marketing Hamberg. Go ahead, Mark, 968 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:51,719 Speaker 1: you're on the air. How you doing, guys? Okay? Great. 969 00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 1: Enjoyed the game last night, especially that moment with Christian Wade. 970 00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, if they're looking for other things for him 971 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:05,319 Speaker 1: to learn, try him unpunked or kickoff return. I mean 972 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:09,120 Speaker 1: in rugby there their heads up and they're looking to 973 00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:11,920 Speaker 1: avoid players and so on and so forth. It sounds 974 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:13,680 Speaker 1: like it'd be right up his alley as far as 975 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,320 Speaker 1: his skill set goes. Yeah, you're right. That would be 976 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,480 Speaker 1: an awesome attempt to give him a little more. Yeah, 977 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:23,040 Speaker 1: you're right. And here's the thing too though, I mean, Mark, 978 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:26,279 Speaker 1: I had to say it, but when you get on 979 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:30,440 Speaker 1: special teams in the NFL, all the rules get thrown 980 00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:35,240 Speaker 1: out and there's a whole separate rulebook for special teams, 981 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 1: and I can imagine the different set of rules and 982 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,360 Speaker 1: how it's different from because it would be different than rugby, 983 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,799 Speaker 1: even though the instincts would be the same. That may 984 00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 1: overload him a little bit. Certainly, he's got the skills 985 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,279 Speaker 1: of the abilities and the skill set to catch a 986 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,960 Speaker 1: ball out of the air and start running with it, 987 00:48:57,120 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 1: but the rule changes in the alignments and what to expect, 988 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 1: the fair catch, the ability to fair catch it, and 989 00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:09,360 Speaker 1: everything that's involved in that. They're trying to get this 990 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:11,640 Speaker 1: guy to learn how to take a handoff. Right. He 991 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:15,480 Speaker 1: didn't even know what to do after he'd scored the touchdown. Um, 992 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,399 Speaker 1: he's you know, he's really a novice, So to put 993 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: more on his play, I think they're trying to make 994 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:22,759 Speaker 1: it as simple as they can for him. But I 995 00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:24,880 Speaker 1: don't think there's any doubt Mark, You're right. At some 996 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:28,840 Speaker 1: point down the line. To me, he's screaming kickoff returner 997 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,960 Speaker 1: and and punt returner. I mean, that's that's right in 998 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 1: his wheelhouse of what he already does well. And I 999 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 1: think and I thought the same thing, and I'm interested 1000 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:41,439 Speaker 1: to hear you. I guess I agree. It's just there's 1001 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 1: a lot, you know, he's got a lot on his 1002 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:44,600 Speaker 1: plate now. If you put him back their returning kicks, 1003 00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:46,920 Speaker 1: he's got a different set of decisions to make that 1004 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,200 Speaker 1: he doesn't know about now. Right, that's right, and that 1005 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 1: that might be a little bit much to ask of 1006 00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 1: a guy. Yeah, and I'm not limited experience. I'm not 1007 00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 1: gonna say they don't think he can do it at all. 1008 00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:57,880 Speaker 1: I'm saying this though. I know this. When I returned 1009 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,920 Speaker 1: Punch late in my career, I felt like, Man, the 1010 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:03,440 Speaker 1: whole team is playing really good. I'm the only guy 1011 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: here that could mess the whole thing up with one mistake. Right, 1012 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:08,840 Speaker 1: And I don't think he Christian Wade would know that. 1013 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 1: He wouldn't have realized it, which is probably a good 1014 00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:16,439 Speaker 1: thing in some ways, but the coaching staff certainly realizes it. Yeah, 1015 00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:17,759 Speaker 1: And if they put a guy out there who's not 1016 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 1: really ready or mentally prepared or understands enough about that 1017 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:26,680 Speaker 1: they might hesitate, But you're right, his skill set is 1018 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:28,839 Speaker 1: right there. Who wasn't a couple of years ago, final 1019 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 1: game of the season, Bills at the Jets, and who 1020 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 1: wasn't just let the ball drop at the one yard 1021 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:37,239 Speaker 1: line Jets recover. That's the kind of play though that Yeah, 1022 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:40,359 Speaker 1: and that's by an American born football player. I can't 1023 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 1: remember who that was. I've tried to block that out 1024 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,279 Speaker 1: of It's a different world, man, Huh. Yeah, it's a 1025 00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:46,640 Speaker 1: different world. I think special teams that they and you 1026 00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 1: literally just throw the rule book, that rule book over 1027 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 1: there for down and distance, first and tent and you 1028 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:54,720 Speaker 1: over here to punt team, punt return, kickoff, kickoff return, 1029 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,640 Speaker 1: and it's a completely different rule book that's almost just 1030 00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:00,600 Speaker 1: as thick. Yeah, all right, a breakcare great Seal's gonna 1031 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,520 Speaker 1: join us. Coming up after the top of the hour 1032 00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:04,800 Speaker 1: break talk about last night's Bills game. We'll take a 1033 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 1: look around the rest of the NFL preseason, the games 1034 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:10,560 Speaker 1: eleven total last night. Yeah, that was Mike Gillisy who 1035 00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:13,600 Speaker 1: made that bonehead move? You remember that? All right, We're 1036 00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:15,759 Speaker 1: coming back with more another hour ago, two hours ago, 1037 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:17,920 Speaker 1: actually One Bill's Live, presented by Collat of Health from 1038 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:35,280 Speaker 1: One Bill's Driving. This is Buffalo Bill's Radio. Oh Ns 1039 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 1: down to downs Dons, Buffalo Time. Welcome back hour to 1040 00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 1: John Murphy's Teeth. Can we're debating after one hour debating 1041 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:53,000 Speaker 1: the quality of our show here so far, we still 1042 00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:58,279 Speaker 1: have time to salvage it that two hours left. It's fatigue, really, right, 1043 00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 1: it's fatigue. You worked last night when we broadcast the game. 1044 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:03,719 Speaker 1: I was on TV radio. Obviously, radio is harder. You go, 1045 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 1: you go get you get out a little later than everybody. 1046 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,799 Speaker 1: I'm in the tail end of the traffic. You go home. 1047 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 1: You are wired. I mean, you cannot lay down. And 1048 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:17,880 Speaker 1: so I watched the Arizona game whoever there where, I 1049 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:19,759 Speaker 1: can't even remember who they were playing last night, and 1050 00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,920 Speaker 1: I was just Chargers, Chargers, Yeah, Arizona Chargers game. And 1051 00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 1: you just watch I mean, you sit there and right 1052 00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:28,279 Speaker 1: and I watched your game in then a little bit 1053 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:30,799 Speaker 1: of Arizona. Yo watches a lot of games. He's our 1054 00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:33,920 Speaker 1: next guest. He is an executive producer in Analysts of 1055 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 1: NFL Matchup on ESPN, longtime senior producer at NFL Films, 1056 00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:39,719 Speaker 1: A frequent guest of the show, a friend of the show, 1057 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 1: Greg Cosell, on the line with us. Hello, Greg, you 1058 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:44,360 Speaker 1: you stayed up all night watching video. You're not complaining 1059 00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:47,120 Speaker 1: about fatigue, are yet? Well? I actually went to the 1060 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:50,040 Speaker 1: Eagles game, but truth be told, I left at halftime. 1061 00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:52,760 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, guys, there's no whining in football. 1062 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 1: Come on, as you're tired, what's tired at the football seat? 1063 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:58,799 Speaker 1: You're right, You're right. I just mentioned to Steve I'm 1064 00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:00,839 Speaker 1: not in condition. That's all I felt. The show has 1065 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:02,800 Speaker 1: been a little bit disjointed, but we got time to 1066 00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:04,440 Speaker 1: pull together, and we're counting on you to do this 1067 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,719 Speaker 1: for us. Greg, what you may, I'm ready to go. 1068 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:08,800 Speaker 1: You know, what do you make of the Bill's victory 1069 00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:12,799 Speaker 1: preseason game number one, last name? What'd you take from it? Well, 1070 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: I mean I watched various things. You know. Look, I'll 1071 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 1: be totally honest. It's it's hard to watch every single 1072 00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:22,200 Speaker 1: snap of every preseason game. But I watched all of 1073 00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 1: Josh Allen's plays. I watched Devin Singletterry. I took a 1074 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 1: peck of Tyree Jackson because I watched him quite a 1075 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:31,799 Speaker 1: bit coming out of Buffalo. I obviously wanted to see 1076 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,759 Speaker 1: Ed Oliver. I took a pretty long look at Darryl 1077 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 1: Johnson because I watched him, believe it or not, when 1078 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:39,840 Speaker 1: he was at North Carolina A and T. And I 1079 00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:43,680 Speaker 1: really liked him and I thought he really flashed. We'll 1080 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,720 Speaker 1: discuss that more. Of course, I watched both Sean Joseph 1081 00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 1: and then I made it through some other quarterbacks who 1082 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 1: played around the league. So so we have a bit 1083 00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:53,879 Speaker 1: to talk about. Where do you want to start. Let's 1084 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:56,000 Speaker 1: start with Daryl Johnson. We were talking about him ordering 1085 00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:58,040 Speaker 1: the show, and you're right. He was seventh round draft 1086 00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,400 Speaker 1: pick and he's been running with the twos or threes 1087 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,600 Speaker 1: in practice and then he gets in the game against 1088 00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 1: the coltson he probably had as a productive day at 1089 00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:11,960 Speaker 1: defensive end as anybody, Steve, You're right, And what I 1090 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:15,160 Speaker 1: did is I just pulled up my notes from when 1091 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,399 Speaker 1: I watched him in North Carolina A and T. Because 1092 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,479 Speaker 1: I was curious what I said. It's been a long time, 1093 00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:21,839 Speaker 1: and after I watched him with the Bills, I went 1094 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:23,640 Speaker 1: back and I wanted to see what did I say, 1095 00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 1: because I remember liking him, and I said that he 1096 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:30,279 Speaker 1: was a very intriguing day three prospect with a desirable 1097 00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 1: combination of size, length, and natural quickness that sometimes he 1098 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:37,520 Speaker 1: has a tendency to play high, but the baseline traits 1099 00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 1: are there for him to develop into an effective NFL 1100 00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 1: edge rusher, and I think we saw some of that 1101 00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:46,520 Speaker 1: last night. He showed the strength to both take on 1102 00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:49,839 Speaker 1: blocks and playoff contact in the run game. I thought 1103 00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 1: he showed a nice speed to power rush. He used 1104 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:55,760 Speaker 1: his arms very well, really good arm extension and lower 1105 00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 1: body drive. Then he showed that countermove that kind of 1106 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,520 Speaker 1: club swim arm over which even though he didn't get 1107 00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 1: a sack on it, it was really effective against the 1108 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:06,800 Speaker 1: right tackle. The other thing that really stood out to me, 1109 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 1: and this is really good for a young player, is 1110 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:11,959 Speaker 1: I thought he played with great discipline in the zone 1111 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:15,960 Speaker 1: read run game. He really understood his role and responsibility. 1112 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:19,279 Speaker 1: He didn't chase, he stayed right where he should. He 1113 00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 1: actually made a tackle on that play as well. And 1114 00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:23,279 Speaker 1: there were a number of those plays where he played 1115 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:25,600 Speaker 1: with great discipline. Yeah, I noticed too, And of course 1116 00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:27,759 Speaker 1: I was watching from the broadcast ind of it, So 1117 00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 1: when he flashed over when he made one of the 1118 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:33,080 Speaker 1: plays he made, I took notice he knocked. He got 1119 00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 1: in on a hard kind of a bull rush where 1120 00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:37,320 Speaker 1: he got in and deflected the pass right out of 1121 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,960 Speaker 1: the quarterback's arm right in the pocket. The sack that 1122 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 1: he got early on was on a hard move to 1123 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:46,040 Speaker 1: the inside on a stunt with his defensive tackle mate 1124 00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:48,400 Speaker 1: where he came all the way across from the outside 1125 00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 1: and ran all the way in around the center and 1126 00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:53,160 Speaker 1: still got there. So it was great speed that he 1127 00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 1: made and also a small gap he went through. He 1128 00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 1: just showed athleticism as well as the ability. He kind 1129 00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:01,439 Speaker 1: of had a nose for where the quarterback was. Yeah, 1130 00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:03,279 Speaker 1: I mean, you're that stunt. You hit it right on 1131 00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:05,439 Speaker 1: the head. It was a t stunt meeting tackle goes 1132 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:07,640 Speaker 1: first and the end loops around, and he was the end, 1133 00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:09,960 Speaker 1: so he was the looper. But I thought he showed 1134 00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:12,759 Speaker 1: balance and body control. And you know in those situations, 1135 00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:15,560 Speaker 1: you know, Steve, when you come hard off the tackles 1136 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:17,719 Speaker 1: rear end, so to speak, you know, you have to 1137 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:20,040 Speaker 1: be able to bend, you've got to have balance, and 1138 00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:22,600 Speaker 1: you've got body can have to body control to then 1139 00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:25,719 Speaker 1: sort of straighten and close, and he really did a 1140 00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:28,400 Speaker 1: nice job with that. I was very very impressed with 1141 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,000 Speaker 1: his performance. It's only one preseason game, Greg, But on 1142 00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:34,720 Speaker 1: Daryl Johnson, seventh round pick, what could this year's ceiling 1143 00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:36,280 Speaker 1: be for him? I mean, could he be a regular 1144 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,160 Speaker 1: part of the defensive line rotation? Is that what we 1145 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:41,240 Speaker 1: should look for? Well, look, I'm one of those believers 1146 00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 1: that you have to be careful about over analyzing preseason games. 1147 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,640 Speaker 1: But we're talking about traits. We're not necessarily saying, hey, 1148 00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:50,640 Speaker 1: this is something he's going to do every week from 1149 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:54,160 Speaker 1: a production standpoint. But I think you guys know he'll 1150 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:57,160 Speaker 1: get an opportunity because this team is looking for edge 1151 00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 1: pass rushers. I mean, you know, other than use. You know, 1152 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:04,560 Speaker 1: Shack Lawson has not proven to be that guy, and 1153 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 1: I don't think he is that guy. So I think 1154 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,920 Speaker 1: they're looking for another edge player. And you know, I 1155 00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:13,520 Speaker 1: think once you start getting into camp and Steve, look, 1156 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:15,840 Speaker 1: you played a long time in the league, coaches are 1157 00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 1: not worried about who the first round pick or the 1158 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 1: second round pick is. They're looking for production because their 1159 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:23,440 Speaker 1: jobs are on the line, and Daryl Johnson's going to 1160 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,560 Speaker 1: get an opportunity to show that he belongs, even if 1161 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:29,520 Speaker 1: he's a sub package player in play twenty snaps a game. 1162 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 1: If he can continue this kind of production, with these 1163 00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 1: kinds of trades, he'll get an opportunity, all right, one 1164 00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:37,480 Speaker 1: of the guy that had an opportunity. Everybody was kind 1165 00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:39,720 Speaker 1: of waiting with bated breath. And you may not care, 1166 00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:41,680 Speaker 1: the coaches may not care who the number one draft 1167 00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 1: pick is, but we do what. You know, it's interesting 1168 00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:48,560 Speaker 1: because I thought he had a little bit of a 1169 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:50,840 Speaker 1: tough time. He was matched against Quinton Nelson on a 1170 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:56,000 Speaker 1: lot of snaps, and you know, he struggled a little bit. Look, 1171 00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 1: I think he's at his best off movement, whether he's slanting, 1172 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:01,880 Speaker 1: whether he's penetrated. He's not built to take on double 1173 00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:04,360 Speaker 1: team blocks. But of course in this league he's going 1174 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:07,400 Speaker 1: to have to take on some double team blocks. That's 1175 00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:11,560 Speaker 1: part of being a three technique defensive tackle. So you know, 1176 00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:15,080 Speaker 1: he's going to have to learn how to use his hands. 1177 00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,680 Speaker 1: He's going to have to be a master technique player 1178 00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:21,840 Speaker 1: to playoff strength because he's only two hundred eighty eighty 1179 00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:23,800 Speaker 1: five pounds. He's not going to be three ten or 1180 00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:26,640 Speaker 1: three fifteen, so he's going to have to learn how 1181 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,720 Speaker 1: to play with great hand usage and great technique so 1182 00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:33,640 Speaker 1: that he can play off contact and begin because obviously 1183 00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:36,320 Speaker 1: he's got great athletic ability, but on every play or 1184 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 1: not just penetrating into a gap. Greg, we're with Greg 1185 00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:43,000 Speaker 1: Cosel by the Way, executive producer analysts NFL Matchup on 1186 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 1: the ESPN talking about some of the Bills performances last night, 1187 00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:49,040 Speaker 1: and again when we were talking about the seventh round 1188 00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:50,600 Speaker 1: or a minute ago, the fifth round of a Sean 1189 00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:53,240 Speaker 1: Joseph yes against twos and threes. But I thought he 1190 00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:56,320 Speaker 1: had good moments last night, the Bills linebacker, the selection 1191 00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 1: from Florida. I thought he played well. Yeah, It'll be 1192 00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 1: interesting how they see him because he's not a big guy. 1193 00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:04,720 Speaker 1: He's a speed and range guy. He almost has the 1194 00:59:04,760 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 1: build of a safety in this particular defense to me, 1195 00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:11,000 Speaker 1: and I don't know how Sean McDermott and Leslie Fraser 1196 00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:13,920 Speaker 1: see him, but in this defense, to me, he's essentially 1197 00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,280 Speaker 1: in the Matt Milano role. And I don't think he's 1198 00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 1: going to beat him out. But that's the kind of 1199 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:22,600 Speaker 1: player I think he is. I think that ultimately he's 1200 00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:27,920 Speaker 1: a speed range player. He's an explosive athlete. He can 1201 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,240 Speaker 1: play sideline to sideline. You saw some of that movement 1202 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,840 Speaker 1: last night. There were a couple of times he got caught. 1203 00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 1: He you know, he didn't read the right thing and 1204 00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:39,080 Speaker 1: was a step behind. That can come with experience, but 1205 00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:42,360 Speaker 1: to me, that's the kind of player he is. Anybody 1206 00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:45,560 Speaker 1: else about the Buffalo Bills, you said we watched with 1207 00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:47,800 Speaker 1: bated breath a little bit how Josh Allen did. But 1208 00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 1: we also watched Tyree Jackson, the ub kid, the quarterback, 1209 00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:54,160 Speaker 1: big tall, sixty seven. He showed some obviously his arm 1210 00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 1: strength and some athleticism. Did you see anything else about him? 1211 00:59:58,000 --> 00:59:59,840 Speaker 1: He's got a ways to go. I mean, I thought 1212 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:02,640 Speaker 1: he dropped his eyes a number of times. I thought 1213 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,040 Speaker 1: he broke down too often when there was no pressure, 1214 01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:08,360 Speaker 1: when the read was not defined, you know, his his 1215 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:11,200 Speaker 1: primary was not defined. I think he's got a ways 1216 01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:14,080 Speaker 1: to go in the nuances of the position. He made 1217 01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:16,680 Speaker 1: a great throw to McKenzie on the cross around third 1218 01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:19,600 Speaker 1: and seven, where he hit his back foot, knew where 1219 01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:21,880 Speaker 1: he was going, so he made a great throw. They 1220 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:24,400 Speaker 1: ran the real nice rpo. He did a nice job 1221 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:27,080 Speaker 1: with that where he hit a talbridge for twenty one yards. 1222 01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:31,840 Speaker 1: He's a little imprecise with his ball placement, so you know, 1223 01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:34,440 Speaker 1: I think it's the reason he was a late round pick. 1224 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:37,200 Speaker 1: You see the size at times, you see the arm. 1225 01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:39,920 Speaker 1: He's got movement ability. But I think he has a 1226 01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:42,400 Speaker 1: lot of work to do in the details and nuance 1227 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 1: of the position, because ultimately, it's a very disciplined craft 1228 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:47,919 Speaker 1: and I think he's got a way to go there. Great, 1229 01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 1: let's go to the number one guy at that position 1230 01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:52,680 Speaker 1: on the dep chart. Josh Allen played a couple of series. 1231 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:55,120 Speaker 1: I don't know how much you could get from his performance, 1232 01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:59,440 Speaker 1: But what did you see? What do you take from it? Well, actually, 1233 01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:01,640 Speaker 1: I was were interested in what the Bills did, which 1234 01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:03,480 Speaker 1: I didn't know till I put the tape on the 1235 01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:05,760 Speaker 1: way they lined up in what we call ten personnel 1236 01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 1: with one back and four wide receivers a number of 1237 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 1: times when Josh was in the game, and I thought 1238 01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:14,120 Speaker 1: that was interesting. I don't know, I assume that'll be 1239 01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 1: something they do during the regular season if they feel 1240 01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 1: good about their receivers. They do have a pretty deep 1241 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:21,680 Speaker 1: core of receivers now, so I'm anxious to see who 1242 01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:26,000 Speaker 1: ultimately makes the team besides the obvious ones. You know, 1243 01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:29,040 Speaker 1: the only throw that bothered me two throws bothered me 1244 01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:33,080 Speaker 1: with Josh. One is he missed m Zay Jones on 1245 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:38,400 Speaker 1: a curl possession. Yeah, and you know you gotta make 1246 01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:41,120 Speaker 1: that throw. It's a routine NFL throw. He's wide open 1247 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 1: and he just got to make that throw. Then he 1248 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:46,240 Speaker 1: actually came back on third and four on the next 1249 01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:49,000 Speaker 1: possession and he did hit Jones on the curl, but 1250 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:52,680 Speaker 1: he was just a beat late and Jones got hammered 1251 01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:54,920 Speaker 1: because of it. And you know those can often be 1252 01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,920 Speaker 1: in completions when the defenders allowed to hammer your receivers. So, 1253 01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 1: you know, just the poor ball placement on one third 1254 01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:03,520 Speaker 1: down and being late on another third down. I think 1255 01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:05,880 Speaker 1: those are the kinds of things we've talked about that 1256 01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:09,640 Speaker 1: Josh needs to work on with Great Cosell. He is 1257 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:14,000 Speaker 1: the executive producer analyst NFL Matchup on ESPN. Talking about 1258 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,920 Speaker 1: it last night's Bills game, second were talking about at Oliver. 1259 01:02:17,040 --> 01:02:19,560 Speaker 1: Second round pick Cody Ford had an interesting night. He 1260 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:22,680 Speaker 1: had practiced all week at the guard and last night 1261 01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:25,040 Speaker 1: he played guard and tackle, which I think is a 1262 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:27,560 Speaker 1: good signed. The coaching staff obviously feels like they want 1263 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:29,400 Speaker 1: to see more of him, right, get him exposure to 1264 01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:32,240 Speaker 1: both both and I thought I liked what I saw. 1265 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:34,920 Speaker 1: I think in the run game, you know, the way 1266 01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 1: I see it, My guess is, and again, there's a 1267 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:41,560 Speaker 1: lot of training camp left in a lot of preseason games. Um, 1268 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:44,360 Speaker 1: I think with who they started on the right side, 1269 01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:46,800 Speaker 1: with Ford at guard and a second at right tackle, 1270 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,360 Speaker 1: you guys would know better, But I think that I'll 1271 01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:52,000 Speaker 1: probably be the starting right side. Does that seem the 1272 01:02:52,040 --> 01:02:54,360 Speaker 1: way it'll be to you? It's it's looking like that, yeah, 1273 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,240 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, because I think, yeah, I think they'll 1274 01:02:57,280 --> 01:03:01,040 Speaker 1: be really good running gap schemes stuff to that side, 1275 01:03:01,320 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 1: pulling Spain who'll be the left guard, and then letting 1276 01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:08,600 Speaker 1: Ford and Nissecki do the double team blocks. They did 1277 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:13,560 Speaker 1: that a couple of times with when Singletary got in 1278 01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:15,400 Speaker 1: the game. I can't remember if it was Nissecki at 1279 01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:17,920 Speaker 1: that point, but it was certainly Ford at right guard. 1280 01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:20,960 Speaker 1: And you know, I think that with Ford and Nissecki 1281 01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:24,040 Speaker 1: double teaming in the gap scheme, run game, running power counter, 1282 01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:27,680 Speaker 1: I think that's a pretty formidable right side there for 1283 01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:30,160 Speaker 1: that kind of run. But I liked what I saw 1284 01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:32,200 Speaker 1: from Ford. I thought he was good in the run game. 1285 01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:35,880 Speaker 1: I thought he passed protected well, you know again, it's 1286 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:39,480 Speaker 1: first game. But you know, I think I mean, look, 1287 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:42,080 Speaker 1: this kid was thought of as a pretty highly rated prospect. 1288 01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:44,040 Speaker 1: I talk to some old line coaches who liked him 1289 01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:47,440 Speaker 1: as well, so I think that's a positive. I guess 1290 01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:50,040 Speaker 1: I'm interested in why they would look at him a 1291 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:52,040 Speaker 1: tackle where he had practiced for the first week and 1292 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:55,720 Speaker 1: your opinion, Great, where do you think his future lize? Tackle? Guard? 1293 01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:58,680 Speaker 1: Does it matter? Well, he played right tackle at Oklahoma. 1294 01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:02,120 Speaker 1: You know, maybe they see him down the road to tackle. 1295 01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:06,040 Speaker 1: Maybe their uncertain as to Niseki at right tackle. Don't 1296 01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:07,760 Speaker 1: know the answer to that. You know, that's what the 1297 01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:12,240 Speaker 1: rest of training campus for. You know, they still have Teller, 1298 01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:15,080 Speaker 1: who played with either the second or and even the 1299 01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:18,560 Speaker 1: third unity, but last year started six or seven games. 1300 01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:22,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, maybe they're just trying to figure out. Look, 1301 01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:24,120 Speaker 1: every every O line coach will tell you they want 1302 01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:26,560 Speaker 1: to start their best five, So maybe they're just trying 1303 01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:29,040 Speaker 1: to figure out who their best five are and with 1304 01:04:29,200 --> 01:04:31,640 Speaker 1: the feeling that Ford can be part of that, either 1305 01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:33,720 Speaker 1: at guard or at tackle. Yeah, Well, one of the 1306 01:04:33,760 --> 01:04:35,600 Speaker 1: reasons they're gonna they want to get their best five 1307 01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:38,240 Speaker 1: on the field is because they're gonna have four of 1308 01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:40,280 Speaker 1: the five are gonna be new from last year because 1309 01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:42,880 Speaker 1: they couldn't run the football. They did run, try to 1310 01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:44,919 Speaker 1: run the football. And one guy who flashed a little 1311 01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 1: bit in the run game for the Bills was their 1312 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:50,000 Speaker 1: third round running back Devin single Arry showed some vision, 1313 01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:52,040 Speaker 1: had some pretty nice runs. What do you think of 1314 01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:55,280 Speaker 1: his performance? Yeah, and I thought it was really interesting 1315 01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:58,360 Speaker 1: when he came in. Boy, they lined up with two backs, 1316 01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:01,040 Speaker 1: two tight ends. They put him in this straight eye formation, 1317 01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:03,080 Speaker 1: and they wanted to see if they could just run 1318 01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:06,520 Speaker 1: with some power, and uh, you know, and Singletary, Look, 1319 01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:09,920 Speaker 1: we kind of know what he is. I mean Singletary is. 1320 01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:15,600 Speaker 1: He's showed patience, he showed decisive short area burst. He's 1321 01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:19,560 Speaker 1: got elusiveness, he's shifty. I think he's got I think 1322 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:22,480 Speaker 1: he runs hard. I don't know if he'll be powerful 1323 01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:25,000 Speaker 1: at the NFL level because of his size, but he 1324 01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:28,880 Speaker 1: runs hard. He's got it. He's a slashing style of runner. 1325 01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 1: He certainly got a downhill mentality, there's no question about that. 1326 01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:35,200 Speaker 1: I thought he caught the ball well too. Yeah, and 1327 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,320 Speaker 1: I thought that was one question mark coming out of college. 1328 01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:39,880 Speaker 1: He didn't have very many receptions, but the Bills have 1329 01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:41,800 Speaker 1: used him and actually when they worked him out, that 1330 01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:43,760 Speaker 1: was all they wanted to look at, and he showed 1331 01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:47,280 Speaker 1: an ability to do that. I thought last night one 1332 01:05:47,320 --> 01:05:51,000 Speaker 1: other guy I wanted to ask you about was, let 1333 01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:57,280 Speaker 1: me guess, was vos Sean Joseph the safety. Did you 1334 01:05:57,320 --> 01:06:00,400 Speaker 1: get a chance to look at him? You know, he 1335 01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:03,640 Speaker 1: played stacked backer and uh, he's uh, you know, he's 1336 01:06:03,640 --> 01:06:05,640 Speaker 1: a run guy. I mean, it'll be interesting to see 1337 01:06:05,680 --> 01:06:08,840 Speaker 1: because he's he's a speed guy. He's a little light. 1338 01:06:08,960 --> 01:06:10,479 Speaker 1: I mean, I know, I think he was too thirty 1339 01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:12,479 Speaker 1: at the combine. He doesn't look like that on tape. 1340 01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:14,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what he weighs now. You know, he 1341 01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:16,880 Speaker 1: has the look of his safety, but he was basically 1342 01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:21,880 Speaker 1: playing stacked linebacker to the strong side and uh, you 1343 01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:24,640 Speaker 1: know he didn't he didn't make a lot of plays, 1344 01:06:24,720 --> 01:06:27,840 Speaker 1: but you can see the movement, and you know, I 1345 01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:29,920 Speaker 1: think that I don't know what his role will be 1346 01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:32,240 Speaker 1: on this team. I'm not sure he'll play a lot 1347 01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:34,960 Speaker 1: of snaps and you know, with the defense, they'll probably 1348 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:37,600 Speaker 1: end up being a special teams player early on. Greg, 1349 01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:39,480 Speaker 1: let me just take you around the league a little bit. 1350 01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 1: Some of the other note you make from the first 1351 01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:44,400 Speaker 1: Thursday of the preseason and Daniel Jones. Are they ready 1352 01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 1: to annoy him as the next guy for the New 1353 01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:48,480 Speaker 1: York Giants? What did you see last night? What do 1354 01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 1: you think? Well, from what I'm reading this morning, I 1355 01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:52,640 Speaker 1: think it's not just annoying him as the next guy. 1356 01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:54,360 Speaker 1: I think we need the gold jacket at the Hall 1357 01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 1: of Fame, right, yea hey, but that's the That's what 1358 01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:01,080 Speaker 1: the first preseason game is always all about. You know, 1359 01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:04,080 Speaker 1: we overanalyze that one. But look, you know it's so 1360 01:07:04,160 --> 01:07:06,920 Speaker 1: funny watching these first preseason games. Obviously, he was five 1361 01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:10,800 Speaker 1: for five. All five of his drop backs were defying 1362 01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:14,400 Speaker 1: reads and throws with the route concepts dictating the timing 1363 01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:16,560 Speaker 1: of the of the drop in the throw they ran 1364 01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:18,960 Speaker 1: in RPO. He did a nice job there. They were 1365 01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:22,360 Speaker 1: in a nice post cross combination. That was the play 1366 01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:25,960 Speaker 1: that really said a lot to me about him being coachable, 1367 01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:30,040 Speaker 1: because he played almost exclusively from the shotgun at duke 1368 01:07:30,600 --> 01:07:33,880 Speaker 1: and a post cross under center. That's basically a shot 1369 01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:37,000 Speaker 1: play call and its play action. And what I really 1370 01:07:37,160 --> 01:07:42,400 Speaker 1: liked about him was he snapped his head around really 1371 01:07:42,560 --> 01:07:45,560 Speaker 1: quickly after he turned his back to the defense and 1372 01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:48,440 Speaker 1: as Steve knows when you're not used to turning your 1373 01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:51,120 Speaker 1: back to the defense as a quarterback. That's something you've 1374 01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:53,800 Speaker 1: got to work on. That's a learned trait. And he 1375 01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:56,880 Speaker 1: snapped his head around and he made a great throw. 1376 01:07:57,360 --> 01:08:00,720 Speaker 1: And then the touchdown pass to Fowler, which we're looking 1377 01:08:00,760 --> 01:08:03,040 Speaker 1: at right now, was again it was basically it was 1378 01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:06,560 Speaker 1: red zone cover two. It's a high, low read concept 1379 01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:09,120 Speaker 1: and he made a great, great throw into the corner 1380 01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:11,720 Speaker 1: of the end zone on the corner route. Well, one 1381 01:08:11,800 --> 01:08:13,919 Speaker 1: last guy I've got to ask you about. He's maybe 1382 01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:16,120 Speaker 1: the most intriguing rookie in the league. Gets seen his 1383 01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:18,599 Speaker 1: house so much rides on his shoulders is Kyler Murray. 1384 01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:20,719 Speaker 1: I watched a little bit of that game. I didn't 1385 01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:22,800 Speaker 1: see him play. I got to the game very late 1386 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:25,639 Speaker 1: and late in the second half and he was out. 1387 01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:27,840 Speaker 1: But I did see the highlights that they were running 1388 01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:31,160 Speaker 1: during the broadcast. What did you see about his performance? 1389 01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:33,559 Speaker 1: And what's it gonna look like that offense with Kyler 1390 01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:36,560 Speaker 1: Murray at quarterback. Well, it's funny because they didn't do 1391 01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:38,920 Speaker 1: anything with Cliff Kingsbury that you went, oh my god, 1392 01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:41,000 Speaker 1: look at that. They just ran when everybody runs in 1393 01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:43,719 Speaker 1: the NFL. He threw a bunch of speed outs versus 1394 01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:46,920 Speaker 1: bild cover three. Those are just timing and spot throws. 1395 01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:50,479 Speaker 1: He made those throws. They ran a screen to David Johnson, 1396 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:54,879 Speaker 1: which they obviously they're not calling it against a specific coverage, 1397 01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:58,639 Speaker 1: but they got the coverage that made the play work, 1398 01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:02,639 Speaker 1: so it was a nice gain. He showed the ability 1399 01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:05,200 Speaker 1: to escape pressure, get outside the pocket and make second 1400 01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:08,040 Speaker 1: reaction throws. They got him outside on boot. As we're 1401 01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:10,160 Speaker 1: looking at right here, you'll see a lot of that. 1402 01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:14,040 Speaker 1: Those are well defined throws again with a high low element. 1403 01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:17,160 Speaker 1: Here's the screen that I was talking about. They ended 1404 01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:19,639 Speaker 1: up getting man coverage, so they just had to block 1405 01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:23,040 Speaker 1: the guy who was covering David Johnson, so you know, 1406 01:09:23,120 --> 01:09:26,160 Speaker 1: they kept it really simple. I mean, what you're hoping 1407 01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:28,680 Speaker 1: in these preseason games for young quarterback Steve you know 1408 01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 1: this is you're just looking to see them execute so 1409 01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:34,519 Speaker 1: they come away with success and not failure. One more 1410 01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:36,320 Speaker 1: quarterback to ask you about Greg before I let you go. 1411 01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:39,519 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. Seems they have a sense of maybe the 1412 01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:42,240 Speaker 1: expectation level in Cleveland because he came out on fire 1413 01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:45,519 Speaker 1: last night right opening drive for the Browns. What I 1414 01:09:45,640 --> 01:09:48,560 Speaker 1: like most about Baker Mayfield. And this is and I 1415 01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:52,360 Speaker 1: believe this is very important. Hey and Steve would know this. 1416 01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:55,519 Speaker 1: With Jim Kelly, I mean, I think that you have 1417 01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 1: to have a turn it loose, aggressive mentality to play 1418 01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:01,920 Speaker 1: quarterback in this league. And I think Baker Mayfield that's 1419 01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:05,360 Speaker 1: built into his DNA. He turns the ball loose. The 1420 01:10:05,479 --> 01:10:08,719 Speaker 1: touchdown pass he threw to Higgins was a great, great 1421 01:10:08,800 --> 01:10:11,360 Speaker 1: example of that. It was a tight window on the 1422 01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:14,840 Speaker 1: seam throw versus zone. You know, and say what you 1423 01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:19,040 Speaker 1: want about Baker Mayfield. He's aggressive, he believes in himself. 1424 01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 1: I think that's in his DNA. That's the way he plays. 1425 01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:26,320 Speaker 1: He's going to make throws. And I think to be 1426 01:10:26,400 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 1: a great quarterback in this league, I'm not I'm talking 1427 01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 1: about a great quot. I don't use that term loosely. 1428 01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:33,800 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying he's great now, but I think 1429 01:10:33,880 --> 01:10:37,320 Speaker 1: that to be that you have to have an aggressive mindset. 1430 01:10:37,560 --> 01:10:40,559 Speaker 1: It has to be part of your persona and you've 1431 01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:46,160 Speaker 1: got to make tough, difficult throws when the situation demands it. No, Greg, 1432 01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:48,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe it's the Christian Wade run here 1433 01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:50,479 Speaker 1: in Buffalo, and maybe it's just a Bills victory. I 1434 01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:53,080 Speaker 1: try to keep my emotion in check, but I feel 1435 01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 1: good about the Bills. On the rest of the NFL, too, 1436 01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:57,120 Speaker 1: there's a lot to like about the first preseason games 1437 01:10:57,120 --> 01:11:01,519 Speaker 1: worth here, Yo, Yeah, I mean, look, it's it's football, 1438 01:11:01,560 --> 01:11:04,639 Speaker 1: it's you know again, I try to keep it under control. 1439 01:11:05,200 --> 01:11:08,400 Speaker 1: I look for traits. I look for why guys play well. 1440 01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:11,599 Speaker 1: I think coaches are more interested in these preseason games 1441 01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:16,120 Speaker 1: and in evaluating individual players. Obviously, they're playing their schemes 1442 01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:19,120 Speaker 1: and their techniques that they've been teaching, but they're not 1443 01:11:19,360 --> 01:11:22,960 Speaker 1: hardcore game planning against an opponent per se. So they're 1444 01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:26,040 Speaker 1: really looking at individual players. That to me is the 1445 01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:28,160 Speaker 1: fun of it. You know, obviously I focus a lot 1446 01:11:28,240 --> 01:11:31,080 Speaker 1: on quarterbacks, but you know, that's what I think the 1447 01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:34,719 Speaker 1: preseason is for evaluating players, and fans should realize there's 1448 01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:37,200 Speaker 1: not twenty spots up for grabs on teams. You know, 1449 01:11:37,400 --> 01:11:40,040 Speaker 1: Steve knows what are there, Steve five to seven spots 1450 01:11:40,120 --> 01:11:42,280 Speaker 1: that are really up for grabs. Not me. I'm making 1451 01:11:42,640 --> 01:11:46,919 Speaker 1: rash judgments and snap decisions based on everything I saw yesterday, 1452 01:11:46,960 --> 01:11:49,160 Speaker 1: and I've got I'm pretty sure. I like that. I 1453 01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:50,800 Speaker 1: like I'm pretty sure I know what's going to go. 1454 01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:53,320 Speaker 1: Just look at one play and make your judgment. That's right, 1455 01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:57,519 Speaker 1: I've seen enough. Yeah, there you go. We'll talk again soon. 1456 01:11:57,600 --> 01:12:01,000 Speaker 1: Thank you, Grace. Greg all right, guys, talk to you great. 1457 01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:04,759 Speaker 1: Co sal Is executive producer analyst NFL matchup on ESPN, 1458 01:12:04,880 --> 01:12:08,040 Speaker 1: long time senior producer at NFL Films. Good to talk 1459 01:12:08,120 --> 01:12:10,040 Speaker 1: with him and get kind of an outsider's view of 1460 01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:12,559 Speaker 1: what we saw from the Bills last Yeah. He's pretty objective, 1461 01:12:12,600 --> 01:12:15,479 Speaker 1: and sometimes sometimes it can like I don't know, you know, 1462 01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:18,400 Speaker 1: because we have built in biases for all of us. 1463 01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:20,120 Speaker 1: We talk about these guys, we know the effort they're 1464 01:12:20,160 --> 01:12:23,200 Speaker 1: putting in. But I'm kind of with him. There's a 1465 01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:25,120 Speaker 1: lot to like about what the Bills did last night 1466 01:12:25,240 --> 01:12:29,559 Speaker 1: that was said, Yeah, but there's also, like I've been saying, 1467 01:12:29,640 --> 01:12:32,880 Speaker 1: you know, we all know. Yeah, you know, Josh missed 1468 01:12:32,920 --> 01:12:34,920 Speaker 1: a couple of throats and I saw him too, and 1469 01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:36,599 Speaker 1: I called and I called it out on our broadcast, 1470 01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:38,639 Speaker 1: just like it that that first curl rout he missed 1471 01:12:38,680 --> 01:12:41,040 Speaker 1: his A was probably the one that I remember the most. 1472 01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:45,120 Speaker 1: He's gotta make that throw and I know that's what 1473 01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:48,800 Speaker 1: he's as a player, and I know he's just like 1474 01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:50,720 Speaker 1: this or your competitor. You're laying in bed that night 1475 01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:52,559 Speaker 1: after the game, and Josh is not thinking about all 1476 01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:55,120 Speaker 1: the good stuff. He's saying, man, I hit that throw. 1477 01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:57,559 Speaker 1: That's the kind of thing they think about because they 1478 01:12:57,640 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 1: want to do it right, and plenty to be optimistic about, 1479 01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:04,080 Speaker 1: plenty of stuff to work on as well. But I'm 1480 01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:07,280 Speaker 1: with you. You look around the league. There's some pretty 1481 01:13:07,280 --> 01:13:10,240 Speaker 1: good football out there, good stories going on. That's the 1482 01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:12,880 Speaker 1: thing that is the most fun. Yeah. I think the 1483 01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:15,120 Speaker 1: surprising thing is that we saw some really good players 1484 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:19,040 Speaker 1: playing good. But the fun of it was seeing which 1485 01:13:19,080 --> 01:13:20,720 Speaker 1: guys It was that we were like, oh yeah, I'm 1486 01:13:20,760 --> 01:13:23,000 Speaker 1: kind of pulling for that guy. Yeah, I agree. He's 1487 01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:24,840 Speaker 1: got a text from a friend of mine who says 1488 01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:28,080 Speaker 1: Greg Cosella is our best guest. He probably is. Let's 1489 01:13:28,160 --> 01:13:30,120 Speaker 1: keep that to ourselves. We have other people on too, 1490 01:13:30,200 --> 01:13:34,120 Speaker 1: want to renegotiate ate well, plus nobody else want to 1491 01:13:34,160 --> 01:13:36,560 Speaker 1: come on because they can't.

Yeah. Yeah, for sure. I mean I 1517 01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:01,800 Speaker 1: can remember coming it's a training camp, just seeing all 1518 01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:04,280 Speaker 1: the Vets, you know, seeing how focus they were, and 1519 01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:07,080 Speaker 1: then seeing the group that I came in with, and 1520 01:15:07,360 --> 01:15:08,920 Speaker 1: uh and just trying to get trying to get a 1521 01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:10,760 Speaker 1: spot on the team, trying to help out the team, 1522 01:15:10,840 --> 01:15:14,439 Speaker 1: having the conversations with with the young guys. Uh. Well 1523 01:15:14,479 --> 01:15:16,160 Speaker 1: I was a young guy at the time also, but 1524 01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:18,960 Speaker 1: about trying to help the team, you know, and um, 1525 01:15:19,640 --> 01:15:21,840 Speaker 1: you know, now we're then you get to preseason, which 1526 01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:23,639 Speaker 1: is what you know, the fans got to see yesterday, 1527 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:26,880 Speaker 1: got them, got to see them get active. Uh, and 1528 01:15:27,080 --> 01:15:29,280 Speaker 1: that and that's that's where it all starts. That's where 1529 01:15:29,280 --> 01:15:31,040 Speaker 1: it all starts. Who were the Vets that you kind 1530 01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:32,519 Speaker 1: of looked up to when you were here. I would 1531 01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:34,280 Speaker 1: think Lee Evans was part of that group. R Yeah, 1532 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:37,680 Speaker 1: it was Lee Evans, Josh Reid and Roscoe Parish and 1533 01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:40,439 Speaker 1: uh and they both they both were valuable for me 1534 01:15:41,040 --> 01:15:43,680 Speaker 1: and uh in my receiving career. And and just like 1535 01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:45,840 Speaker 1: in the in the film room and in the meeting rooms. 1536 01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:48,160 Speaker 1: What did you learn from Lee Evans? Uh, just just 1537 01:15:48,280 --> 01:15:51,519 Speaker 1: staying of course, trying to keep it even kill you know, Um, 1538 01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:54,080 Speaker 1: everybody know, I'm I can go up and down, up 1539 01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:56,640 Speaker 1: and down, and uh, I'm like in the moment with 1540 01:15:56,800 --> 01:16:00,400 Speaker 1: things end up. But Lee was always cool. Yeah, kept 1541 01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:02,080 Speaker 1: kept it straight, you know, so he was something to 1542 01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:05,479 Speaker 1: look Chan was that coach Chan Gailey? Yeah, yep, well, um, 1543 01:16:05,880 --> 01:16:10,160 Speaker 1: dickon and then and then Chan came in and uh 1544 01:16:10,479 --> 01:16:12,639 Speaker 1: and then then Lee end up leaving though, right. Does 1545 01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:15,599 Speaker 1: anything stand out to you about your preseason experiences, particularly 1546 01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:18,040 Speaker 1: the early ones. Yeah, I mean I got I got 1547 01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:21,360 Speaker 1: one where It's funny you brought up Lee's name. So 1548 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:23,320 Speaker 1: it was fourth preseason game. You know, that's where we 1549 01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:26,200 Speaker 1: that's where's our time, our time to shine. And Lee 1550 01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:29,200 Speaker 1: walked up to me and was like, I'm excited to 1551 01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:31,760 Speaker 1: see I'm excited to watch you playing. And that right 1552 01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:34,560 Speaker 1: there just gave me so much inspiration and motivation to 1553 01:16:35,200 --> 01:16:38,360 Speaker 1: to ball out on that preseason game. And my quarterback 1554 01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:41,120 Speaker 1: at the time was Lebron Hampton, and um, you know 1555 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,400 Speaker 1: we was we was in the game and he told 1556 01:16:43,439 --> 01:16:44,880 Speaker 1: me to do a he told me to do a 1557 01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:49,639 Speaker 1: hitch route, and at the time, I'm like, man, Lee, ready, 1558 01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:51,320 Speaker 1: he's excited to watch me. You don't want to watch 1559 01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:53,519 Speaker 1: me run a hitch route right now. So I'm telling him. 1560 01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:55,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm pointing down, like, no, we're running the goal. 1561 01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:58,280 Speaker 1: Let's run the goal. And he's telling me hitch. So 1562 01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:00,280 Speaker 1: then we get off the hike hiked up and he 1563 01:17:00,320 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 1: see I'm not running the hitch, so he throws it up. 1564 01:17:03,080 --> 01:17:04,800 Speaker 1: I go up and make the play. This preseason got 1565 01:17:04,880 --> 01:17:06,360 Speaker 1: go up and make the play, and I feel like 1566 01:17:06,439 --> 01:17:09,800 Speaker 1: this is what got me. I guess loved in the city. Um, 1567 01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:12,080 Speaker 1: when I made it, I turned around, went to the 1568 01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:14,439 Speaker 1: fans instantly, let's go. You know what I'm saying. They 1569 01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:16,280 Speaker 1: got in the fall and I feel like that was 1570 01:17:16,439 --> 01:17:19,040 Speaker 1: you know, that was the first connection with with the 1571 01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:22,320 Speaker 1: fans and Jabron also he was upset at me, but 1572 01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:24,320 Speaker 1: but when I made the play, he was like, Okay, yeah, 1573 01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:26,680 Speaker 1: I guess it works, you know, So that it was 1574 01:17:26,800 --> 01:17:28,840 Speaker 1: chances that I took and um, you know, I was 1575 01:17:28,920 --> 01:17:30,960 Speaker 1: never wanting to be disrespectful to the to the QB 1576 01:17:31,080 --> 01:17:32,479 Speaker 1: saying oh no, I'm gonna do this. You know what, 1577 01:17:32,520 --> 01:17:34,640 Speaker 1: I'm saying, but I just felt like I had to 1578 01:17:34,760 --> 01:17:37,320 Speaker 1: at that time. TV. I know you weren't disrespectful, but 1579 01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:39,439 Speaker 1: you did freelance, right, you did. You what I'm think about, 1580 01:17:39,680 --> 01:17:41,360 Speaker 1: how did you get that freedom to do that and 1581 01:17:41,400 --> 01:17:44,160 Speaker 1: the confidence to do that? Well, I had to get open, 1582 01:17:44,280 --> 01:17:47,120 Speaker 1: you know. I felt like, uh, you know, I wasn't 1583 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:50,080 Speaker 1: freelancing to a point where nobody knew what I was doing. 1584 01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:53,040 Speaker 1: I was like still within the framework of the routes 1585 01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:55,200 Speaker 1: and everything, but um, I just I just did it 1586 01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:58,160 Speaker 1: a little bit different because when I first got into 1587 01:17:58,200 --> 01:18:02,400 Speaker 1: the league, I'm running routes and the holes was just 1588 01:18:02,479 --> 01:18:04,840 Speaker 1: too tight. You know. I'm like, there's no way I 1589 01:18:04,920 --> 01:18:07,840 Speaker 1: can survive in this league with every ball being like 1590 01:18:07,880 --> 01:18:10,360 Speaker 1: a fifty fifty ball. So I just got back to 1591 01:18:10,479 --> 01:18:12,640 Speaker 1: what I felt can create space for me. And I 1592 01:18:12,760 --> 01:18:14,800 Speaker 1: was basketball and so I use that. Man one of 1593 01:18:14,840 --> 01:18:16,880 Speaker 1: the things about it, and I was talking to quarterback 1594 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:18,920 Speaker 1: like fits when he was throwing you the ball and 1595 01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:21,439 Speaker 1: all these guys, you would get to the spot you 1596 01:18:21,520 --> 01:18:23,559 Speaker 1: were supposed to be at at the time you're supposed 1597 01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:25,080 Speaker 1: to be there, but if it was supposed to be 1598 01:18:25,120 --> 01:18:26,519 Speaker 1: an out, you might run it like an out. And 1599 01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:29,680 Speaker 1: up and then back to get your separation because you know, 1600 01:18:30,280 --> 01:18:32,200 Speaker 1: you know, playing against the DBS all the time, they 1601 01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:34,320 Speaker 1: kind of get to know what the rob tree is exactly, 1602 01:18:34,360 --> 01:18:37,559 Speaker 1: and you're doing stuff. It's about fooling them rather than 1603 01:18:37,600 --> 01:18:40,160 Speaker 1: out running them. Yeah, fooling them within that time. If 1604 01:18:40,160 --> 01:18:42,000 Speaker 1: you can get on time and in the right spot. 1605 01:18:42,120 --> 01:18:44,639 Speaker 1: Quarterback didn't care if you're there and you're by yourself, 1606 01:18:44,720 --> 01:18:46,160 Speaker 1: He'll throw it to you. Is that And that's kind 1607 01:18:46,200 --> 01:18:48,280 Speaker 1: of your your modus oper endive how you got on 1608 01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:50,800 Speaker 1: the team. Yeah, yeah, for real. And and another thing 1609 01:18:50,880 --> 01:18:53,560 Speaker 1: that plays into it is having that quarterback because some 1610 01:18:53,760 --> 01:18:59,360 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are strictly on steps in the appropriate time and 1611 01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:02,080 Speaker 1: like this pacific timing and they already letting the ball go. 1612 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:04,800 Speaker 1: But um, you know, some quarterbacks they work with you. 1613 01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:07,519 Speaker 1: And that's what I was fortunate enough to have. And 1614 01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:10,479 Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of the think about josh Alan. 1615 01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:12,639 Speaker 1: He's got both. He can he can throw it now, 1616 01:19:13,120 --> 01:19:15,280 Speaker 1: and he also has that touch to see and then 1617 01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:16,960 Speaker 1: give you some to give you some time and then 1618 01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:18,600 Speaker 1: and it got the arm strength to put it in 1619 01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:20,680 Speaker 1: a place that it needs to be. So um, like 1620 01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:22,880 Speaker 1: the guys here they got they got a great opportunity. 1621 01:19:22,960 --> 01:19:25,320 Speaker 1: They just got to seize it and uh hopefully that 1622 01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:27,360 Speaker 1: they're getting it done in the film room. Former Bill's 1623 01:19:27,360 --> 01:19:29,840 Speaker 1: wide receivers Tevie Johnson with us visiting Western New York 1624 01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:32,240 Speaker 1: for Fred Jackson's football camp this weekend. You talked about 1625 01:19:32,280 --> 01:19:34,640 Speaker 1: the quarterback you had, and you're talking about fit you 1626 01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:37,479 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick. You and he had a special chemistry and 1627 01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:40,439 Speaker 1: sort of an unspoken understanding of how you were going 1628 01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:42,680 Speaker 1: to run routes and when he was gonna throw it. Huh. Yeah, 1629 01:19:42,720 --> 01:19:44,200 Speaker 1: it was just all that. It was all that practice, 1630 01:19:44,240 --> 01:19:47,040 Speaker 1: starting with the scout team. Uh, that's that's where we 1631 01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:50,320 Speaker 1: got our confidence from playing against the ones. Uh coming 1632 01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:52,599 Speaker 1: in as a seventh rounder, you know, we that's where 1633 01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:54,360 Speaker 1: we are. We the scout team look at these plays 1634 01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:56,320 Speaker 1: and then uh go go show it for the for 1635 01:19:56,400 --> 01:19:59,320 Speaker 1: the defense. And as we were looking at those plays, 1636 01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:01,280 Speaker 1: I was talking with fitz Hey, I'm gonna do it 1637 01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:03,040 Speaker 1: like this, but it's gonna be the same route, but 1638 01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:04,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it a little bit different. And then 1639 01:20:05,120 --> 01:20:08,360 Speaker 1: as it was working with the ones, Okay, we might 1640 01:20:08,439 --> 01:20:10,880 Speaker 1: have something. So that's what it was. Does his success 1641 01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:13,960 Speaker 1: and longevity in the league surprise you at all. Uh nah, No, 1642 01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:16,920 Speaker 1: not at all, because it's just it's just about protecting yourself, 1643 01:20:17,080 --> 01:20:20,280 Speaker 1: you know, not being in those collisions. Um. You know, 1644 01:20:20,479 --> 01:20:23,639 Speaker 1: as a as a QB, you got you got control 1645 01:20:23,720 --> 01:20:26,559 Speaker 1: all that, you know. Um, So I'm pretty sure he'll 1646 01:20:26,600 --> 01:20:28,760 Speaker 1: play even even more years out there this you know. 1647 01:20:28,840 --> 01:20:30,720 Speaker 1: It's just I guess as long as teams want him. 1648 01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:33,720 Speaker 1: It was fits, um, of all the quarterbacks you played, 1649 01:20:33,760 --> 01:20:35,479 Speaker 1: but he was at the top of the list for you. 1650 01:20:35,560 --> 01:20:38,000 Speaker 1: Everythink was productive. Yeah, for sure, because we I mean 1651 01:20:38,080 --> 01:20:41,439 Speaker 1: we had the most chemistry together and UM, yeah I 1652 01:20:41,479 --> 01:20:44,559 Speaker 1: appreciate that. Dude. Let's let's talk to you a little 1653 01:20:44,560 --> 01:20:47,160 Speaker 1: bit about the game today, um, and how it's change. 1654 01:20:47,160 --> 01:20:48,360 Speaker 1: And you've only been out of the league for how 1655 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:51,160 Speaker 1: many years? Five years? Maybe four? Four? But it seems 1656 01:20:51,200 --> 01:20:52,880 Speaker 1: like the passing game is different now than it was 1657 01:20:52,920 --> 01:20:56,040 Speaker 1: when you played. Huh. Um, I wouldn't say it. I wouldn't. 1658 01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:57,640 Speaker 1: I want to say it's different because I feel like 1659 01:20:57,680 --> 01:20:59,680 Speaker 1: it was coming into his own when when I was 1660 01:20:59,800 --> 01:21:03,360 Speaker 1: here and um, and now it's just it's flourishing now, 1661 01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:05,720 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Um. But you know, one 1662 01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:08,360 Speaker 1: thing leads to another. That's that's it's tough on defenses, 1663 01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:09,680 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because they can't do as 1664 01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:13,040 Speaker 1: much as they should be allowed to do. UM. But 1665 01:21:13,320 --> 01:21:15,040 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, it is what it is. I'm 1666 01:21:15,080 --> 01:21:16,680 Speaker 1: a receiver, so I ain't gonna speak too much on 1667 01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:20,320 Speaker 1: feeling sorry for the DV. What's the biggest when you 1668 01:21:20,360 --> 01:21:22,599 Speaker 1: watch games? Now? What do you notice more about how 1669 01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:25,920 Speaker 1: it's changed just in the short time you've been going, um, honest, 1670 01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:27,880 Speaker 1: to keep it, to keep it all the way honest 1671 01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:29,560 Speaker 1: with you. It's the coaching part of it, you know 1672 01:21:29,600 --> 01:21:31,960 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I feel like I felt like when 1673 01:21:32,120 --> 01:21:36,040 Speaker 1: when something goes wrong looking at the film, because I 1674 01:21:36,080 --> 01:21:37,559 Speaker 1: get a lot of clips into me and I can 1675 01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:39,320 Speaker 1: see a lot of clips I do. I do training, 1676 01:21:39,360 --> 01:21:42,320 Speaker 1: personal training and UM. And when I see the clips 1677 01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:44,559 Speaker 1: of like a quarterback doing something wrong or a receiver, 1678 01:21:44,840 --> 01:21:47,840 Speaker 1: they're not necessarily not own them. And and I feel 1679 01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:50,479 Speaker 1: like even in my time when I was doing something wrong, 1680 01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:52,360 Speaker 1: it was it was too many cool coaches are. I 1681 01:21:52,400 --> 01:21:53,680 Speaker 1: ain't gonna say too much, you know what I mean. 1682 01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:55,800 Speaker 1: I think I think if you want to go to 1683 01:21:55,920 --> 01:21:59,479 Speaker 1: that next level, you have to coach them. Yeah, don't 1684 01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:01,280 Speaker 1: be of non be. I don't want to say afraid, 1685 01:22:01,320 --> 01:22:03,280 Speaker 1: and nobody's scared of them, but don't be. I guess, 1686 01:22:03,560 --> 01:22:07,040 Speaker 1: uh timid to to ruffle some feathers, you know what 1687 01:22:07,040 --> 01:22:09,280 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, we're here to work for you, coach, coach, 1688 01:22:09,360 --> 01:22:12,240 Speaker 1: don't don't give me half effort. You know what I'm saying. 1689 01:22:12,400 --> 01:22:14,800 Speaker 1: If I do something wrong, you gotta let him know, Like, hey, QB, 1690 01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:16,720 Speaker 1: you gotta read that and throw it up here. You 1691 01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:18,960 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I'm seeing a lot of that now, 1692 01:22:19,080 --> 01:22:21,360 Speaker 1: you know as a as a fan or spectator of 1693 01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:23,320 Speaker 1: the game. Now right, Stevia, sounds like you've had a 1694 01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:26,160 Speaker 1: look at Josh Allen right in the Buffalo offense. Give 1695 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:29,360 Speaker 1: us your IMPRESSIONE of Josh Allen. Yeah, well, from his 1696 01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:32,800 Speaker 1: rookie year, I've seen already noticed that he was a playmaker. Um, 1697 01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:35,640 Speaker 1: we just needed to build pieces around him. Um, and 1698 01:22:35,840 --> 01:22:40,240 Speaker 1: now we're absolutely doing that, and we're making efforts to 1699 01:22:41,320 --> 01:22:45,080 Speaker 1: keep playmakers around like adding Cole Cole Beasley, m adding 1700 01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:48,479 Speaker 1: John Brown another vetting and Andre Roberts. Um, we got 1701 01:22:48,520 --> 01:22:51,920 Speaker 1: some young guys that was that started with with Josh 1702 01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:54,560 Speaker 1: and I feel like, um adding these this mix of 1703 01:22:54,640 --> 01:22:57,000 Speaker 1: vets that can create is going to do nothing but 1704 01:22:57,080 --> 01:22:59,439 Speaker 1: help him. Yeah, you gotta. You gotta kind of feel like, Wow, 1705 01:23:00,120 --> 01:23:01,880 Speaker 1: great to for a guy like you to play with 1706 01:23:01,960 --> 01:23:04,000 Speaker 1: a guy like Josh who's kind of improvised and got 1707 01:23:04,080 --> 01:23:05,960 Speaker 1: the ability to keep a play alive in the big arm, 1708 01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:08,320 Speaker 1: Like if you decide to go sixty five yards, he 1709 01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:10,160 Speaker 1: can make the throw right. It would have been a 1710 01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:12,360 Speaker 1: lot of fun to see to play with a guy 1711 01:23:12,439 --> 01:23:14,519 Speaker 1: like that, correct, Yeah for sure. But you know I can. 1712 01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:17,880 Speaker 1: I can always help out some of the receivers and 1713 01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:20,840 Speaker 1: ways to where it'll it'll help out Josh. You know 1714 01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:22,560 Speaker 1: that way I won't have to think about. Man, I 1715 01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:25,080 Speaker 1: wish I could have been there.

What was your biggest takeaway from last night's game? 1784 01:26:31,160 --> 01:26:33,560 Speaker 1: Got full lines open eight oh three five fifteen the 1785 01:26:33,680 --> 01:26:36,160 Speaker 1: number from outside Buffalo. It's a toll free call one 1786 01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:39,479 Speaker 1: eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty Send in 1787 01:26:39,560 --> 01:26:41,639 Speaker 1: a tweet, we might read it on the tweet sheet. 1788 01:26:41,680 --> 01:26:43,840 Speaker 1: We got Chris Brown coming by to join us to 1789 01:26:43,880 --> 01:26:45,479 Speaker 1: talk about the game in a little bit. I want 1790 01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:47,280 Speaker 1: to read a few tweets here on that topic. Steve, 1791 01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:49,080 Speaker 1: all right, here we do that. Let's go back to 1792 01:26:49,160 --> 01:26:52,679 Speaker 1: the tweet sheet. It is presented by Corrigan Moving Systems, 1793 01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:55,559 Speaker 1: the official movers of the Buffalo Bills. The tweet sheet, 1794 01:26:55,640 --> 01:26:58,400 Speaker 1: what was your biggest takeaway from the win last night? 1795 01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:00,600 Speaker 1: Go ahead from Brian Cook. He says, Christian Wade a 1796 01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:02,880 Speaker 1: rugby player that can fly. Not only did he score 1797 01:27:02,920 --> 01:27:05,040 Speaker 1: sixty five yard touchdown on his first play, but his 1798 01:27:05,560 --> 01:27:07,600 Speaker 1: but the play was over before he even got to 1799 01:27:07,680 --> 01:27:10,160 Speaker 1: the fifty yard line because he was gone. If he 1800 01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:13,400 Speaker 1: can acclimate to the game, he's got insane upside. I 1801 01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:15,920 Speaker 1: think that's true. He's got some skills, no question about him. 1802 01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:18,680 Speaker 1: It was the play of the night, without question. You 1803 01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:20,760 Speaker 1: know it's cool about that too. The setup where he 1804 01:27:21,520 --> 01:27:24,160 Speaker 1: you can invest time in him, right, he's got a 1805 01:27:24,200 --> 01:27:27,080 Speaker 1: guaranteed spot if they want him on the practice squad, 1806 01:27:27,200 --> 01:27:29,320 Speaker 1: player number eleven. I still don't I gotta figure out 1807 01:27:29,320 --> 01:27:31,600 Speaker 1: the answer is a league pay paying him or the 1808 01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:34,240 Speaker 1: Bills doesn't matter. I don't know if he's an exemption. 1809 01:27:34,920 --> 01:27:37,439 Speaker 1: He's not on the cap anyway, right, I mean you're 1810 01:27:37,560 --> 01:27:40,000 Speaker 1: actic squad. It's the same thing. But you can invest 1811 01:27:40,120 --> 01:27:42,599 Speaker 1: time in him. You can look at that play and say, Okay, 1812 01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:45,479 Speaker 1: we got something here, let's work on it for a year. Now. 1813 01:27:45,520 --> 01:27:47,320 Speaker 1: You'd answer me the Steve because you well know this 1814 01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:51,120 Speaker 1: the answer to this question, how much time during the 1815 01:27:51,200 --> 01:27:54,000 Speaker 1: course of an NFL regular season do can you invest 1816 01:27:54,479 --> 01:27:56,479 Speaker 1: in player development? The same kind of question goes for 1817 01:27:56,600 --> 01:27:58,960 Speaker 1: somebody like Tyree Jackson. You know you want him around, 1818 01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:01,639 Speaker 1: you want to invest, you know you want to develop him. 1819 01:28:01,800 --> 01:28:04,040 Speaker 1: And this is a big Chris Brown theory, and he's right, 1820 01:28:04,120 --> 01:28:07,519 Speaker 1: player development is huge. But once September eighth comes around 1821 01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:09,160 Speaker 1: and you got the Jets and the Giants and the 1822 01:28:09,320 --> 01:28:11,960 Speaker 1: Bengals and the Patriots, blah blah blah, you really have 1823 01:28:12,040 --> 01:28:14,160 Speaker 1: time if you're a coach, to say, let's work on 1824 01:28:14,280 --> 01:28:19,680 Speaker 1: Christian Wade today. Yes, you do, and you invest. Particularly, 1825 01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:22,240 Speaker 1: you make sure you've got people on your staff in 1826 01:28:22,320 --> 01:28:24,280 Speaker 1: your weight room, in your training room, and you've got it. 1827 01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:26,280 Speaker 1: They can be on a schedule that you said and 1828 01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:28,479 Speaker 1: that they said as well. You got to tell him 1829 01:28:28,640 --> 01:28:30,920 Speaker 1: you'll put as much effort into their career as they 1830 01:28:31,000 --> 01:28:33,559 Speaker 1: will if they want to be in there all hours 1831 01:28:33,560 --> 01:28:35,080 Speaker 1: of the day, if they want to study film, if 1832 01:28:35,120 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 1: they want to scour. A guy like Christian Wade wants 1833 01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:40,439 Speaker 1: to scour the rule book and understand and watch film 1834 01:28:40,479 --> 01:28:42,400 Speaker 1: and see how it works. If he wants to do 1835 01:28:42,479 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 1: all that, You've got people in the building that will 1836 01:28:44,320 --> 01:28:46,680 Speaker 1: support him. That's the way it should that's the way 1837 01:28:46,680 --> 01:28:49,880 Speaker 1: it'll work. And you'll also have him on the field 1838 01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:53,200 Speaker 1: with some of the guys who do it at the 1839 01:28:53,320 --> 01:28:56,920 Speaker 1: highest level. There is his teammates, they'll be in it 1840 01:28:57,000 --> 01:28:59,040 Speaker 1: with him as well. He can ask them questions. He'll 1841 01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:01,720 Speaker 1: watch him practice, he'll practice with them, he'll talk to them. 1842 01:29:02,640 --> 01:29:06,439 Speaker 1: There's absolutely no way he'll He'll make leaps and bounds. 1843 01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:10,240 Speaker 1: And so Tyree Jackson, Tyree Jackson is a guy. I mean, 1844 01:29:10,240 --> 01:29:11,920 Speaker 1: if he's on the practice squarter, if he hangs in 1845 01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:14,840 Speaker 1: this building for another year, he'll be a completely different 1846 01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:18,560 Speaker 1: animal than he is today, just like Josh Allen was. 1847 01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:22,120 Speaker 1: Tyree Jackson's got so much to learn, just like Josh 1848 01:29:22,160 --> 01:29:26,560 Speaker 1: Allen did. They came from lesser snown college programs, and 1849 01:29:26,720 --> 01:29:30,760 Speaker 1: Tyree Jackson was a was bigger, faster, stronger armed than 1850 01:29:30,840 --> 01:29:33,680 Speaker 1: anybody at his college level. And he's going to get 1851 01:29:33,680 --> 01:29:35,640 Speaker 1: a chance to watch a guy like Josh Allen who 1852 01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:41,240 Speaker 1: was exactly like him twelve months ago. So yeah, they're development. 1853 01:29:41,439 --> 01:29:43,280 Speaker 1: Want to say that, What do you mean he was 1854 01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:47,720 Speaker 1: exactly like him twelve months ago? Okayactly, skill set was big, 1855 01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:49,880 Speaker 1: He's Josh Allen was the best player on the field 1856 01:29:49,880 --> 01:29:57,120 Speaker 1: at his college. He big, strong armed, ran the football 1857 01:29:57,160 --> 01:29:58,880 Speaker 1: as much as he threw the football. I mean, he 1858 01:29:58,960 --> 01:30:00,400 Speaker 1: was exactly. It was the kind of this same thing. 1859 01:30:00,720 --> 01:30:03,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want to fight. I'd see that 1860 01:30:03,040 --> 01:30:04,920 Speaker 1: they're both big. I don't want to fight you on 1861 01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:07,800 Speaker 1: this this minor points right anyway, that's that's that's an 1862 01:30:07,840 --> 01:30:12,400 Speaker 1: offseason fight. One roll with me. So anyway, Yeah, the 1863 01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:16,000 Speaker 1: player development inside this building is real. Corey Thompson's a 1864 01:30:16,040 --> 01:30:17,960 Speaker 1: perfect example of that. We talked about him a lot. 1865 01:30:18,000 --> 01:30:19,920 Speaker 1: He was, you know, under now the guy can really go. 1866 01:30:20,760 --> 01:30:22,960 Speaker 1: He had some things to get through before he get 1867 01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:26,479 Speaker 1: to that point. And this building seems to be focused 1868 01:30:26,560 --> 01:30:29,200 Speaker 1: on that more so than at any time in the 1869 01:30:29,280 --> 01:30:31,720 Speaker 1: recent past that I can remember. They've got guys that 1870 01:30:31,800 --> 01:30:34,320 Speaker 1: are getting better while they're in this building, and I 1871 01:30:34,400 --> 01:30:36,679 Speaker 1: think you can crown on Christian Wade and Tyree Jackson 1872 01:30:36,760 --> 01:30:38,840 Speaker 1: and the rest of those guys being in that boat too. 1873 01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:41,160 Speaker 1: Maybe that happens to Christian Wade. He certainly has the 1874 01:30:41,280 --> 01:30:44,800 Speaker 1: support and backup of his teammates. Thinking about Robert Foster 1875 01:30:44,960 --> 01:30:46,320 Speaker 1: last year, it took him a half a year to 1876 01:30:46,360 --> 01:30:48,280 Speaker 1: get on the field, Ray Ray McLeod. We've heard Sean 1877 01:30:48,360 --> 01:30:51,679 Speaker 1: McDermott say, Wow, he's a different guy. So I think 1878 01:30:52,560 --> 01:30:54,439 Speaker 1: if you want to say something I've really kind of 1879 01:30:54,479 --> 01:30:56,960 Speaker 1: done well, it would be that kind of development. Let's 1880 01:30:56,960 --> 01:30:59,800 Speaker 1: talk to Brownie about it. A Christian Wade's touchdown has 1881 01:31:00,240 --> 01:31:04,080 Speaker 1: captivated Builds fans and even some of Wade's teammates, including 1882 01:31:04,160 --> 01:31:06,680 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. Build's quarterback had did to say about what 1883 01:31:06,840 --> 01:31:12,000 Speaker 1: he saw from Christian wage touchdown. Roun big congrats to him. 1884 01:31:12,040 --> 01:31:14,559 Speaker 1: I mean, he's he saw how we reacted on the sidelines. 1885 01:31:14,720 --> 01:31:16,600 Speaker 1: I think we all kind of have an affinity for 1886 01:31:16,680 --> 01:31:19,479 Speaker 1: this kid and what he's been through and the challenge 1887 01:31:19,520 --> 01:31:22,880 Speaker 1: that he's been going through with learning the game of football. 1888 01:31:22,880 --> 01:31:24,920 Speaker 1: And he gets an opportunity and he makes the most 1889 01:31:24,960 --> 01:31:28,000 Speaker 1: out of it. So that was just hats off to him. 1890 01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:29,920 Speaker 1: That was one of the coolest experiences of my football career. 1891 01:31:29,960 --> 01:31:31,400 Speaker 1: And it wasn't even me or I wasn't even on 1892 01:31:31,439 --> 01:31:33,479 Speaker 1: the field, So it was just awesome to be part 1893 01:31:33,520 --> 01:31:35,320 Speaker 1: of that. Do you think that kind of a moment 1894 01:31:35,400 --> 01:31:38,120 Speaker 1: does for a team kind of you're in the preseason, 1895 01:31:38,600 --> 01:31:40,800 Speaker 1: kind of getting monotonous here as it goes? What kind 1896 01:31:40,840 --> 01:31:43,439 Speaker 1: of boost do you think the moment like that can 1897 01:31:43,479 --> 01:31:45,439 Speaker 1: give a team at this point of the preseason. I mean, 1898 01:31:45,640 --> 01:31:48,160 Speaker 1: he saw the energy and excitement, you know, not just 1899 01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:50,400 Speaker 1: have everybody in the stadium, but everybody on the sideline. 1900 01:31:51,640 --> 01:31:53,880 Speaker 1: You know, we had to push everybody off the field 1901 01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:55,920 Speaker 1: so we can kick the extra point. And I think 1902 01:31:56,000 --> 01:31:57,600 Speaker 1: he like, I mean, I was talking to some of 1903 01:31:57,640 --> 01:32:00,960 Speaker 1: the guys all he's used to his practice, long running practice. 1904 01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:02,920 Speaker 1: He goes straight back to the huddle. So after he 1905 01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:05,000 Speaker 1: scored that touchdown, he was just kind of standing there 1906 01:32:05,040 --> 01:32:06,800 Speaker 1: and Wyatt Teller I had to tell him to get 1907 01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:09,839 Speaker 1: off the field. So but that's just like just shows 1908 01:32:10,800 --> 01:32:15,000 Speaker 1: how little you know, relatively little he knows about football 1909 01:32:15,040 --> 01:32:16,920 Speaker 1: because he's never played it, but how much he's learning. 1910 01:32:17,080 --> 01:32:19,320 Speaker 1: And like I said, he got the opportunity he took 1911 01:32:19,320 --> 01:32:21,360 Speaker 1: advantage of it, and I think as time goes on, 1912 01:32:21,479 --> 01:32:23,920 Speaker 1: he's going to be asha smarter and learn a lot 1913 01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:27,120 Speaker 1: more things. And um, but I'll tell you what. The 1914 01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:30,800 Speaker 1: entire team was super pumped for that happened. It was awesome. Josh, 1915 01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:33,519 Speaker 1: Josh's got it. He's right. The reaction to the play. 1916 01:32:33,840 --> 01:32:36,320 Speaker 1: The play was great. The reaction was just as cool. 1917 01:32:36,400 --> 01:32:40,040 Speaker 1: I thought it was amazing. Yeah, it was great. It's yeah. 1918 01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:43,200 Speaker 1: I think that's um as good a moment as you're 1919 01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:45,680 Speaker 1: gonna have in this preseason, without question. I don't know 1920 01:32:45,720 --> 01:32:48,320 Speaker 1: what else is going He's not gonna get any better. 1921 01:32:48,960 --> 01:32:51,280 Speaker 1: I've seen too much preseason football. I think this is 1922 01:32:51,280 --> 01:32:54,160 Speaker 1: all gonna go on a fay tale fashion. That's gonna 1923 01:32:54,280 --> 01:32:56,960 Speaker 1: that is the highlight right there. So he just buckled 1924 01:32:57,000 --> 01:33:00,640 Speaker 1: down and endure the rest of it. Tell I mean 1925 01:33:00,760 --> 01:33:02,439 Speaker 1: it was great. I mean, come on, it was fun. 1926 01:33:02,479 --> 01:33:04,519 Speaker 1: We're having fun. We'll have some fun in the final 1927 01:33:04,640 --> 01:33:06,800 Speaker 1: three games, a little bit of fun maybe, Hey, when 1928 01:33:06,800 --> 01:33:09,040 Speaker 1: we come back.

The highlight of the 1942 01:33:57,920 --> 01:34:00,360 Speaker 1: game was the sixty five yard touchdown run the fourth 1943 01:34:00,439 --> 01:34:04,040 Speaker 1: quarter by a former rugby union player, Christian Wade. He 1944 01:34:04,560 --> 01:34:07,000 Speaker 1: will a cutback move and went sixty five yards with 1945 01:34:07,120 --> 01:34:10,600 Speaker 1: a touchdown. First time he touched the ball. Will he 1946 01:34:10,680 --> 01:34:13,280 Speaker 1: be a factor in the Bills offensive backfield. Frank Gore 1947 01:34:13,320 --> 01:34:16,080 Speaker 1: got the start yesterday, Shady did not play. Rookie Devin 1948 01:34:16,200 --> 01:34:19,120 Speaker 1: Singletary and others got snamps. But Christian Wade made his 1949 01:34:19,200 --> 01:34:21,080 Speaker 1: mark first time he touched the ball with a sixty 1950 01:34:21,120 --> 01:34:23,439 Speaker 1: five yard touchdown run. Next up for the Bills a 1951 01:34:23,520 --> 01:34:26,840 Speaker 1: trip to Carolina Spartanburg, South Carolina next week for a 1952 01:34:26,920 --> 01:34:29,120 Speaker 1: couple of practices against the Panthers, and then they will 1953 01:34:29,120 --> 01:34:32,200 Speaker 1: play the Panthers in preseason game number two one week 1954 01:34:32,280 --> 01:34:34,840 Speaker 1: from tonight. Well, Daniel Jones or the Giants did all 1955 01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:36,960 Speaker 1: he could in his debut a spark a quarterback battle 1956 01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:38,839 Speaker 1: in New York, but it's not going to happen, it appears, 1957 01:34:39,240 --> 01:34:42,280 Speaker 1: according to Pat Shermer, the head coach of the Giant, says, 1958 01:34:42,320 --> 01:34:46,000 Speaker 1: the quarterback sitition situation has not changed. Jones was five 1959 01:34:46,080 --> 01:34:48,920 Speaker 1: of five for sixty seven yards in a touchdown last night, 1960 01:34:48,960 --> 01:34:51,479 Speaker 1: a perfect passer rating of one fifty eight point three. 1961 01:34:52,640 --> 01:34:55,120 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones number six overall pick. With a good first 1962 01:34:55,160 --> 01:34:58,519 Speaker 1: outing for the New York Giants, Eagles are probably in 1963 01:34:58,560 --> 01:35:01,800 Speaker 1: the quarterback market now they're backup. Nate Sunfeld expected to 1964 01:35:01,840 --> 01:35:04,400 Speaker 1: be out six weeks. He underwent surgery to repair a 1965 01:35:04,479 --> 01:35:07,719 Speaker 1: broken bone above his left wrist. According to ESPN, injured 1966 01:35:07,760 --> 01:35:10,639 Speaker 1: his non throwing hand last night in the Eagles preseason 1967 01:35:10,720 --> 01:35:14,360 Speaker 1: opening loss to the Tennessee Tits. Arizona Cardinals. Rookie quarterback 1968 01:35:14,560 --> 01:35:17,800 Speaker 1: Tyler Murray almost perfect in his first NFL game first 1969 01:35:17,840 --> 01:35:20,560 Speaker 1: overall pick six of seven for forty four yards in 1970 01:35:20,720 --> 01:35:24,360 Speaker 1: ten snaps in the cardinals seventeen thirteen win over the Chargers. 1971 01:35:25,120 --> 01:35:28,040 Speaker 1: Murray only played the first offensive series, which resulted in 1972 01:35:28,120 --> 01:35:30,439 Speaker 1: a punt for Arizona, but he looked pretty good. And 1973 01:35:30,600 --> 01:35:33,320 Speaker 1: the Bisons road trip continues. They lost two of three 1974 01:35:33,400 --> 01:35:36,000 Speaker 1: games in Toledo against the mud Ends. Now they move 1975 01:35:36,080 --> 01:35:38,920 Speaker 1: on to Columbus tonight. The Bisons and the Columbus Flippers 1976 01:35:39,120 --> 01:35:41,759 Speaker 1: first pitch tonight at seven fifteen.

Welcome back, It is One Bill's Live. 1978 01:35:46,040 --> 01:35:48,760 Speaker 1: John Murphy, Steve Tasker in our one Buffalo studio, joined 1979 01:35:48,800 --> 01:35:51,400 Speaker 1: for the third time this week by Chris Brown, Bills 1980 01:35:51,439 --> 01:35:55,600 Speaker 1: Insider Buffalo Bills dot Com. Talking about the Bills and 1981 01:35:55,680 --> 01:35:57,400 Speaker 1: the victory last night. I thought we're going to talk 1982 01:35:57,400 --> 01:36:00,240 Speaker 1: about Christian Way, but we'll get to that. Chris, welcome. Yes, 1983 01:36:00,360 --> 01:36:03,320 Speaker 1: good to be getting enough to Friday. Let's roll. Yeah, 1984 01:36:03,479 --> 01:36:05,840 Speaker 1: that's roll, I said to Steve. And look, look I 1985 01:36:05,960 --> 01:36:08,240 Speaker 1: get it. I've been around a while, but I am not. 1986 01:36:08,720 --> 01:36:12,400 Speaker 1: I cannot recall a more memorable moment in a Bill's 1987 01:36:12,400 --> 01:36:15,160 Speaker 1: preseason game than Christian Wade's moment last night, the run 1988 01:36:15,320 --> 01:36:18,040 Speaker 1: and the reaction, I thought it was fantastic. It was 1989 01:36:18,200 --> 01:36:20,240 Speaker 1: it was good. I liked it. It was a feel 1990 01:36:20,320 --> 01:36:27,720 Speaker 1: good moment for everybody involved and even for people not involved. Woe. No, 1991 01:36:27,840 --> 01:36:30,200 Speaker 1: it's a special it's a special story, and it is 1992 01:36:30,479 --> 01:36:33,479 Speaker 1: the fact that it was on his first career carry 1993 01:36:33,680 --> 01:36:37,719 Speaker 1: was just insane. And I think, you know, seeing everybody 1994 01:36:37,800 --> 01:36:40,240 Speaker 1: on the sidelines with eyeballs as big as sausage on 1995 01:36:40,320 --> 01:36:42,720 Speaker 1: the team, Like I've seen some of the photos that 1996 01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:45,680 Speaker 1: are you know, team photographers have taken Bill whipperd and 1997 01:36:46,160 --> 01:36:50,759 Speaker 1: Sarah and everybody, and like Lashawn McCoy's eyeballs are almost 1998 01:36:50,800 --> 01:36:52,680 Speaker 1: falling out of his head as Wade is coming to 1999 01:36:52,760 --> 01:36:55,519 Speaker 1: the sideline. Because I think it was just such a 2000 01:36:55,800 --> 01:37:01,040 Speaker 1: natural shock to everybody to be like that just didn't happen, 2001 01:37:01,320 --> 01:37:05,519 Speaker 1: what just had Like everybody was stunned that. And here's 2002 01:37:05,520 --> 01:37:07,559 Speaker 1: the thing I asked him in the locker room after 2003 01:37:07,680 --> 01:37:10,760 Speaker 1: the game, because if you watch that playback a couple 2004 01:37:10,800 --> 01:37:14,559 Speaker 1: of times, he's not just beating people to the end zone. 2005 01:37:15,120 --> 01:37:18,760 Speaker 1: He is pulling away from people. And I asked him, 2006 01:37:18,760 --> 01:37:21,599 Speaker 1: I said, when you were in Tampa doing the US 2007 01:37:21,800 --> 01:37:25,439 Speaker 1: training Stateside here before the allocations were made for each 2008 01:37:25,479 --> 01:37:27,720 Speaker 1: of these players, I said, did they put you through 2009 01:37:27,840 --> 01:37:30,360 Speaker 1: like a combine type workout and did you get a 2010 01:37:30,439 --> 01:37:32,320 Speaker 1: forty time? Because I wanted to know what his forty 2011 01:37:32,360 --> 01:37:34,640 Speaker 1: time was. And he said, yeah, we actually did do 2012 01:37:34,840 --> 01:37:37,599 Speaker 1: like a full combine workout in front of scouts and everything. 2013 01:37:37,960 --> 01:37:39,439 Speaker 1: And he said, they told me my time was a 2014 01:37:39,520 --> 01:37:41,760 Speaker 1: four or five two. He was running faster and four 2015 01:37:41,800 --> 01:37:43,920 Speaker 1: or five two on that touchdown run, like there was 2016 01:37:43,960 --> 01:37:48,000 Speaker 1: adrenaline flowing through that guy's veins and he might have 2017 01:37:48,080 --> 01:37:50,280 Speaker 1: knocked a tenth off. He was running low four four 2018 01:37:50,280 --> 01:37:51,920 Speaker 1: as it looked like to me. Yeah, there, it looked 2019 01:37:51,920 --> 01:37:54,800 Speaker 1: like early the in the down guys had angles on him, 2020 01:37:54,840 --> 01:37:57,280 Speaker 1: and then you know, I said they didn't. Then they 2021 01:37:57,320 --> 01:38:00,080 Speaker 1: didn't have angles on him, and he shifted gears and 2022 01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:02,160 Speaker 1: it was in the end zone. And I like the 2023 01:38:02,280 --> 01:38:05,000 Speaker 1: fact that, you know, in the interview after the game, 2024 01:38:05,160 --> 01:38:11,600 Speaker 1: he remained humble and was actually thanking his teammates, not 2025 01:38:11,760 --> 01:38:14,680 Speaker 1: just for the guys that blocked on the play, but 2026 01:38:14,840 --> 01:38:17,760 Speaker 1: he was thanking his teammates for being patient with him 2027 01:38:18,200 --> 01:38:20,599 Speaker 1: with all the screw ups he's made in the spring. 2028 01:38:20,680 --> 01:38:23,880 Speaker 1: In the summer. And I think the reason they are 2029 01:38:23,960 --> 01:38:26,680 Speaker 1: patient with him is because how about we drop you 2030 01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:28,920 Speaker 1: in a brand new sport you've never played in your life, 2031 01:38:29,040 --> 01:38:32,120 Speaker 1: never learned about in your life, never saw on a chalkboard, 2032 01:38:32,240 --> 01:38:34,760 Speaker 1: never saw a video, or have a coach walk it, 2033 01:38:35,160 --> 01:38:37,720 Speaker 1: walk you through it. Yeah. I mean it's like Coach 2034 01:38:37,800 --> 01:38:39,920 Speaker 1: McDermott said about a week or two ago, this guy 2035 01:38:39,960 --> 01:38:41,479 Speaker 1: didn't know what an A gap, a B gap or 2036 01:38:41,520 --> 01:38:44,600 Speaker 1: a C gap was, and now he's got to know 2037 01:38:44,760 --> 01:38:48,680 Speaker 1: what those are, know how to read a defense and 2038 01:38:48,800 --> 01:38:52,000 Speaker 1: then execute in the snap of a finger. And I 2039 01:38:52,200 --> 01:38:55,200 Speaker 1: was encouraged to know that before that play he saw 2040 01:38:55,320 --> 01:38:58,320 Speaker 1: the overload and knew that there was probably going to 2041 01:38:58,360 --> 01:39:01,400 Speaker 1: be a cutback lane for him, and he hit it. Yes, 2042 01:39:01,800 --> 01:39:04,920 Speaker 1: I mean without any hesitation. We mentioned this as well. 2043 01:39:05,080 --> 01:39:07,960 Speaker 1: Right when you saw the handoff him between he and 2044 01:39:08,160 --> 01:39:12,840 Speaker 1: Tyree Jackson wasn't really a smooth He almost had to 2045 01:39:13,080 --> 01:39:15,320 Speaker 1: gut the ball end over end or something in his 2046 01:39:16,320 --> 01:39:18,880 Speaker 1: He was carrying it like an hourglass at the beginning 2047 01:39:18,880 --> 01:39:21,879 Speaker 1: there right right, and then had to get it secured 2048 01:39:21,920 --> 01:39:24,519 Speaker 1: the proper way. But he was carrying it like Tiki 2049 01:39:24,560 --> 01:39:27,160 Speaker 1: Barber was way up high. Remember when Tike Barber had 2050 01:39:27,200 --> 01:39:30,000 Speaker 1: all his fumbling problems, and he fixed it by carrying 2051 01:39:30,080 --> 01:39:32,760 Speaker 1: it way up here, like almost on his shoulder pad, 2052 01:39:33,280 --> 01:39:35,479 Speaker 1: you know, just to the right of his uh, you know, 2053 01:39:35,600 --> 01:39:37,880 Speaker 1: his stern him there, and he had it up there 2054 01:39:37,960 --> 01:39:40,280 Speaker 1: the whole time and it was not coming down. Yeah, 2055 01:39:40,320 --> 01:39:42,720 Speaker 1: the run was great. The reaction was great, um, and 2056 01:39:42,920 --> 01:39:45,920 Speaker 1: the pictures, as you mentioned, that come from the reaction 2057 01:39:46,000 --> 01:39:48,200 Speaker 1: to that run are kind of amazing. And I don't 2058 01:39:48,240 --> 01:39:50,479 Speaker 1: want to make too much of it. You will accuse 2059 01:39:50,560 --> 01:39:53,519 Speaker 1: me of that after I bounced the Sophie Brownie. I 2060 01:39:53,640 --> 01:39:56,920 Speaker 1: do think there's a narrative out there I'm preparing for. 2061 01:39:57,040 --> 01:40:00,160 Speaker 1: There's a narrative out there that culture doesn't matter, the 2062 01:40:00,240 --> 01:40:02,920 Speaker 1: team bonding isn't that important. But to see that team 2063 01:40:03,000 --> 01:40:04,840 Speaker 1: react the way they did to a guy who's the 2064 01:40:05,400 --> 01:40:08,280 Speaker 1: ultimate long shot to make the roster, right, yes, and 2065 01:40:08,600 --> 01:40:10,680 Speaker 1: you know he's got the so you know, kind of 2066 01:40:10,720 --> 01:40:13,040 Speaker 1: a pass to get on the practice squad, okay, But 2067 01:40:13,120 --> 01:40:14,960 Speaker 1: to see the way the team reacted and the looks 2068 01:40:15,240 --> 01:40:17,640 Speaker 1: on his teammates faces, I don't want to make too 2069 01:40:17,720 --> 01:40:19,320 Speaker 1: much out of it, but it tells me something about 2070 01:40:19,320 --> 01:40:23,519 Speaker 1: the bonding that already one preseason game into it already 2071 01:40:23,560 --> 01:40:26,360 Speaker 1: exists on this rose. Well, I think I think there's 2072 01:40:26,400 --> 01:40:31,200 Speaker 1: a healthy respect for Christian Wade for what he is 2073 01:40:31,320 --> 01:40:35,040 Speaker 1: trying to do. I mean, this is like one of 2074 01:40:35,080 --> 01:40:38,160 Speaker 1: these guys, you know, at twenty eight years of age, 2075 01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:41,360 Speaker 1: one of these guys who has had a wildly successful 2076 01:40:41,479 --> 01:40:45,000 Speaker 1: NFL career going and playing rugby. I mean, it's it's 2077 01:40:45,080 --> 01:40:47,559 Speaker 1: the same thing. So these guys are like, this guy's 2078 01:40:47,640 --> 01:40:50,240 Speaker 1: never played this game, he didn't grow up in this game, 2079 01:40:50,760 --> 01:40:53,559 Speaker 1: and he's trying to make this happen. Like, how can 2080 01:40:53,640 --> 01:40:55,280 Speaker 1: you not respect that? Do you know what I mean? 2081 01:40:55,400 --> 01:40:57,400 Speaker 1: Like you've got it, You've got to have nothing but 2082 01:40:57,520 --> 01:40:59,720 Speaker 1: respect for the I mean, this guy had a very 2083 01:40:59,800 --> 01:41:06,160 Speaker 1: comfortable existence in professional rugby, making good money, not in 2084 01:41:06,280 --> 01:41:09,080 Speaker 1: NFL money, but good money that he could certainly live on, 2085 01:41:09,400 --> 01:41:11,840 Speaker 1: you know, after his career is over and not really 2086 01:41:11,920 --> 01:41:14,120 Speaker 1: have to do much else. I mean, he makes decent 2087 01:41:14,160 --> 01:41:16,599 Speaker 1: money over there in rugby and had accomplished just about 2088 01:41:16,640 --> 01:41:21,640 Speaker 1: all he could accomplish in rugby. And now this guy 2089 01:41:21,800 --> 01:41:24,519 Speaker 1: is trying to have an NFL career. I don't think 2090 01:41:24,600 --> 01:41:27,560 Speaker 1: you can help but have respect for a guy that 2091 01:41:27,800 --> 01:41:30,439 Speaker 1: is taking that kind of a risk with his professional 2092 01:41:30,560 --> 01:41:33,960 Speaker 1: athletic career, because these guys know better than anybody how 2093 01:41:34,080 --> 01:41:36,760 Speaker 1: finite a career that is, I think, so to be 2094 01:41:36,880 --> 01:41:39,120 Speaker 1: taking this chance now, you know, and you know, I 2095 01:41:39,200 --> 01:41:41,160 Speaker 1: know you're asking me, is there a better preseason moment 2096 01:41:41,240 --> 01:41:44,879 Speaker 1: I would like? In this reaction to Kyle Williams touchdown 2097 01:41:44,920 --> 01:41:48,680 Speaker 1: in Miami, it's the same reaction. And it's interesting too 2098 01:41:48,760 --> 01:41:51,720 Speaker 1: because Wade's been here, what not even thirteen months, let 2099 01:41:51,800 --> 01:41:54,320 Speaker 1: alone thirteen years, and Williams you got here in April, right, 2100 01:41:54,360 --> 01:41:57,600 Speaker 1: So it does say something about what they're trying to 2101 01:41:57,640 --> 01:42:00,080 Speaker 1: build here, and I think it says something about what 2102 01:42:00,240 --> 01:42:02,720 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott wants his team to look like and feel like. 2103 01:42:02,880 --> 01:42:05,759 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you this too, And there's a million 2104 01:42:05,840 --> 01:42:10,679 Speaker 1: ways to look at this. Brandon Bean in the embedded 2105 01:42:10,800 --> 01:42:15,840 Speaker 1: series said, Hey, listen, guys are gonna watch or look 2106 01:42:15,880 --> 01:42:18,640 Speaker 1: at who we pay. And when we've cut all these 2107 01:42:18,680 --> 01:42:20,920 Speaker 1: big name guys we had got our house in order 2108 01:42:20,960 --> 01:42:22,599 Speaker 1: with the salary cap, they're gonna look at who we pay. 2109 01:42:22,600 --> 01:42:26,080 Speaker 1: They're also gonna go out and assign free agents. When 2110 01:42:26,120 --> 01:42:27,840 Speaker 1: you see stuff like this, and when you have an 2111 01:42:27,880 --> 01:42:32,439 Speaker 1: atmosphere like this, I think from my experience, word gets 2112 01:42:32,479 --> 01:42:35,840 Speaker 1: around what kind of life you can live here in 2113 01:42:35,880 --> 01:42:39,320 Speaker 1: Buffalo on this team in this environment. Well that and 2114 01:42:39,439 --> 01:42:43,400 Speaker 1: I think also there has been somewhat of a philosophical 2115 01:42:43,640 --> 01:42:48,519 Speaker 1: shift with this coaching staff and this regime in terms 2116 01:42:48,640 --> 01:42:54,519 Speaker 1: of how they pitch competition to the players on this roster. 2117 01:42:56,280 --> 01:43:01,280 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody is ignorant to the fact that 2118 01:43:02,600 --> 01:43:06,120 Speaker 1: this is still a cutthroat leak. You got to perform 2119 01:43:06,760 --> 01:43:09,720 Speaker 1: or you're not on a roster, and everybody knows that. 2120 01:43:10,560 --> 01:43:15,479 Speaker 1: But the way these players interact with one another, even 2121 01:43:15,600 --> 01:43:20,200 Speaker 1: though they're in the throes of a tight competition, whether 2122 01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:23,800 Speaker 1: it's right tackle or cornerback, somebody's going to be here 2123 01:43:23,800 --> 01:43:27,120 Speaker 1: and somebody's not the way, but the way that group, 2124 01:43:27,520 --> 01:43:30,639 Speaker 1: whether it's the cornerbacks, whether it's the offensive tackles who 2125 01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:33,360 Speaker 1: are in direct competition with one another, the right guard 2126 01:43:33,439 --> 01:43:37,560 Speaker 1: competition that's going on right now, whatever competition it is, 2127 01:43:37,960 --> 01:43:42,519 Speaker 1: there are guys who are literally battling each other every day, 2128 01:43:42,640 --> 01:43:46,799 Speaker 1: rep for rep, But after practice is over, they're watching 2129 01:43:46,880 --> 01:43:50,120 Speaker 1: practice film together. They're trying to make each other better. 2130 01:43:50,840 --> 01:43:54,960 Speaker 1: That has not previously existed here in the previous five 2131 01:43:55,080 --> 01:43:57,920 Speaker 1: or six coaching regimes it was kill or be killed, 2132 01:43:58,680 --> 01:44:02,240 Speaker 1: and that is not how this team operates. And I 2133 01:44:02,320 --> 01:44:06,880 Speaker 1: think the reason why is because of Coach McDermott's willingness 2134 01:44:07,840 --> 01:44:14,000 Speaker 1: to add love to the equation as Pollyanna and as 2135 01:44:14,120 --> 01:44:17,960 Speaker 1: rose colored glasses as it might sound. From the very beginning, 2136 01:44:18,160 --> 01:44:20,960 Speaker 1: he said, look, we're going to be a team that 2137 01:44:21,040 --> 01:44:23,400 Speaker 1: not only respects one another, but we're gonna love each 2138 01:44:23,400 --> 01:44:25,840 Speaker 1: other also. And he might have got a couple of 2139 01:44:25,920 --> 01:44:28,560 Speaker 1: cross side looks the first time he mentioned that, but 2140 01:44:28,720 --> 01:44:32,120 Speaker 1: he backed it up himself. Every time he huddles those 2141 01:44:32,160 --> 01:44:35,120 Speaker 1: guys up before a break, whether they're going away after minicamp, 2142 01:44:35,560 --> 01:44:38,439 Speaker 1: whether they're going away on a bye week, he tells them, 2143 01:44:39,880 --> 01:44:43,880 Speaker 1: don't make any kind of decision that's gonna hurt your family. Here, 2144 01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:46,439 Speaker 1: he goes, because I know I'm not going to make 2145 01:44:46,479 --> 01:44:49,680 Speaker 1: any of those decisions while I'm away. I'm not going 2146 01:44:49,720 --> 01:44:52,400 Speaker 1: to make a decision that's gonna hurt this team. Don't 2147 01:44:52,439 --> 01:44:55,439 Speaker 1: you do that either, Because we all everybody looking at 2148 01:44:55,439 --> 01:44:57,679 Speaker 1: each other, we all love each other here. So let's 2149 01:44:57,720 --> 01:44:59,800 Speaker 1: do right by the people you're staring at right now, 2150 01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:03,160 Speaker 1: because these are the guys that matter, and this team matters, 2151 01:45:03,760 --> 01:45:07,080 Speaker 1: and that's a different way of pitching it two players, 2152 01:45:07,439 --> 01:45:09,639 Speaker 1: to hold them accountable, have love for the guy that's 2153 01:45:09,720 --> 01:45:12,439 Speaker 1: next to you. And you know fans might look at 2154 01:45:12,479 --> 01:45:15,000 Speaker 1: that and say, come on, these are football players. We've 2155 01:45:15,000 --> 01:45:19,120 Speaker 1: got barbarians out there. It works here and it's ingrained 2156 01:45:19,200 --> 01:45:22,000 Speaker 1: now and it makes a difference. I'll tell you why 2157 01:45:22,040 --> 01:45:24,160 Speaker 1: it works is because there are a certain time when 2158 01:45:24,200 --> 01:45:26,599 Speaker 1: you're you're you're in pictured. All these guys, all ninety 2159 01:45:26,640 --> 01:45:29,559 Speaker 1: of them, visioned themselves on the fifty three of playing 2160 01:45:29,640 --> 01:45:31,800 Speaker 1: with these guys being in the on the team. That's 2161 01:45:31,840 --> 01:45:35,960 Speaker 1: how you get through every day. And the reason you 2162 01:45:36,479 --> 01:45:39,080 Speaker 1: want it to be exactly the way you described is 2163 01:45:39,160 --> 01:45:43,280 Speaker 1: because you know it's gonna hurt, and it's it's not 2164 01:45:43,400 --> 01:45:46,080 Speaker 1: gonna feel good. There's gonna be down times, up down, 2165 01:45:46,400 --> 01:45:50,600 Speaker 1: up times, down times. There's gonna be physical duress. And 2166 01:45:51,200 --> 01:45:52,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to call it, I don't want to 2167 01:45:52,439 --> 01:45:54,880 Speaker 1: be melodramatic, but you're gonna be suffering a little bit. 2168 01:45:57,240 --> 01:45:59,920 Speaker 1: You don't want to go through that in an environ 2169 01:46:00,160 --> 01:46:01,720 Speaker 1: and other than when you have other guys who were 2170 01:46:01,760 --> 01:46:03,960 Speaker 1: willing to do that for you. If you're gonna do that, 2171 01:46:04,280 --> 01:46:06,280 Speaker 1: and you're gonna ask me to sell out for these guys, 2172 01:46:07,439 --> 01:46:09,400 Speaker 1: you have to know they're doing it for me. And 2173 01:46:09,520 --> 01:46:11,400 Speaker 1: it's to a point now where it even goes beyond 2174 01:46:11,400 --> 01:46:13,160 Speaker 1: the field. And I wrote about this and I quoted 2175 01:46:13,160 --> 01:46:15,280 Speaker 1: those players when I had eight players telling me about 2176 01:46:15,720 --> 01:46:18,760 Speaker 1: difference between twenty seventeen and twenty nineteen. You can probably 2177 01:46:18,800 --> 01:46:20,560 Speaker 1: still dig it up on the site somewhere, but you know, 2178 01:46:20,640 --> 01:46:24,200 Speaker 1: in talking about the love that coach wants players to 2179 01:46:24,320 --> 01:46:27,560 Speaker 1: have for one another, it goes beyond the field. You know, 2180 01:46:28,080 --> 01:46:30,599 Speaker 1: somebody's wife is you know, under the weather or something, 2181 01:46:30,840 --> 01:46:34,439 Speaker 1: and you know they got three kids. Some teammates bringing 2182 01:46:34,439 --> 01:46:36,920 Speaker 1: dinner over for them because he knows, he knows his 2183 01:46:37,000 --> 01:46:38,960 Speaker 1: teammate has got his hands full with three kids and 2184 01:46:39,040 --> 01:46:41,479 Speaker 1: a wife who's in bed with the flu or whatever. 2185 01:46:41,760 --> 01:46:44,040 Speaker 1: He's bringing dinner over that night. Like those are things 2186 01:46:44,120 --> 01:46:47,280 Speaker 1: that have that have not happened here maybe since going 2187 01:46:47,360 --> 01:46:48,760 Speaker 1: back to his teams, do you know what I mean? 2188 01:46:48,880 --> 01:46:52,240 Speaker 1: Like there was not there was that did not exist here. 2189 01:46:52,479 --> 01:46:54,800 Speaker 1: It didn't even exist from one side of the ball 2190 01:46:54,880 --> 01:46:56,640 Speaker 1: to the other. I mean there were times here were 2191 01:46:56,680 --> 01:46:59,320 Speaker 1: the offense and talk to the defense, and that was 2192 01:46:59,360 --> 01:47:02,400 Speaker 1: at the coach level and trick. I mean Paul Mike 2193 01:47:02,479 --> 01:47:05,120 Speaker 1: Mularkey had to inherit a defensive staff that didn't want 2194 01:47:05,120 --> 01:47:07,280 Speaker 1: to know him from Adam right right. Chris Brown is 2195 01:47:07,320 --> 01:47:09,320 Speaker 1: with US Bills inside a Buffalo Bills dot com. We've 2196 01:47:09,320 --> 01:47:11,320 Speaker 1: talked about the feel good moment in last night's game 2197 01:47:11,640 --> 01:47:13,760 Speaker 1: our Twitter question and you can weigh in if you 2198 01:47:13,800 --> 01:47:15,519 Speaker 1: have a comment or question. We got time for a 2199 01:47:15,600 --> 01:47:18,840 Speaker 1: couple of phone calls here eight fifty toll free one 2200 01:47:19,000 --> 01:47:22,439 Speaker 1: eight eight eighty fifty two five fifty. What's the biggest 2201 01:47:22,439 --> 01:47:24,400 Speaker 1: takeaway from last night's win? Chris, let me ask you 2202 01:47:24,560 --> 01:47:26,760 Speaker 1: that question. We know what the field good moment was. 2203 01:47:26,880 --> 01:47:29,040 Speaker 1: It was great, the reaction was great. But the biggest 2204 01:47:29,080 --> 01:47:33,160 Speaker 1: takeaway you had from last night's game two, how the 2205 01:47:33,360 --> 01:47:38,640 Speaker 1: rookie draft class flashed last night almost from top to bottom. Yep. 2206 01:47:39,280 --> 01:47:44,000 Speaker 1: And number two, how Indianapolis could not run the football right. 2207 01:47:44,560 --> 01:47:48,360 Speaker 1: The run defense was a very encouraging sign for me, 2208 01:47:48,800 --> 01:47:51,880 Speaker 1: particularly in the red zone. You know they had they 2209 01:47:51,960 --> 01:47:54,640 Speaker 1: got handed a short field after that Aaron snap on 2210 01:47:54,720 --> 01:47:57,200 Speaker 1: the shotgun play and they held them to a field 2211 01:47:57,240 --> 01:47:59,519 Speaker 1: goal there and that's when the twos and the threes 2212 01:47:59,520 --> 01:48:04,160 Speaker 1: are in um. But here here you go. Start of 2213 01:48:04,200 --> 01:48:06,840 Speaker 1: the game when the ones and the twos are largely 2214 01:48:06,920 --> 01:48:09,720 Speaker 1: still in the game. And I know Marlon Mack did 2215 01:48:09,800 --> 01:48:12,759 Speaker 1: not start for the Colts, but you know, no Jerry Hughes, 2216 01:48:13,040 --> 01:48:17,080 Speaker 1: no Lorenzo Alexander, no Micah Hyde. So the Bills had 2217 01:48:17,080 --> 01:48:21,200 Speaker 1: their shares starters out also, Okay, first six carries for 2218 01:48:21,280 --> 01:48:26,000 Speaker 1: the Colts last night minus two plus one, plus two, 2219 01:48:26,439 --> 01:48:30,880 Speaker 1: minus one plus one, no game. I know it's a 2220 01:48:30,920 --> 01:48:33,960 Speaker 1: small sample size, but I really liked what I saw 2221 01:48:34,080 --> 01:48:37,599 Speaker 1: from the runfront defensively, um, and I thought the defense 2222 01:48:37,720 --> 01:48:41,160 Speaker 1: was locking it down on the whole third down defense. 2223 01:48:41,200 --> 01:48:43,120 Speaker 1: I mean, the Colts did not get a third down 2224 01:48:43,200 --> 01:48:46,080 Speaker 1: conversion until one forty eight left and a half right, 2225 01:48:46,880 --> 01:48:49,880 Speaker 1: That's pretty good even in the preseason. Yeah, they got 2226 01:48:49,920 --> 01:48:51,840 Speaker 1: a first down on the second play from scrumage. You 2227 01:48:51,920 --> 01:48:54,080 Speaker 1: hit that Brissette hit the little crossing route and that 2228 01:48:54,200 --> 01:48:57,040 Speaker 1: was hit until just before halftime. They could not stay 2229 01:48:57,080 --> 01:48:59,000 Speaker 1: on the field. Um. And then just the way the 2230 01:48:59,120 --> 01:49:02,080 Speaker 1: rookies flashed for the Bills, I mean, Oliver had a 2231 01:49:02,160 --> 01:49:04,200 Speaker 1: heck of a matchup with Quenton Nelson. Quentn Nelson might 2232 01:49:04,240 --> 01:49:06,840 Speaker 1: be the best guard in football already in year two. 2233 01:49:07,000 --> 01:49:10,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he's he is a stunt and he handled 2234 01:49:10,040 --> 01:49:13,240 Speaker 1: Oliver all by himself. Right. He's a special player. I 2235 01:49:13,320 --> 01:49:15,519 Speaker 1: mean that is he is. I mean that is a 2236 01:49:15,720 --> 01:49:19,920 Speaker 1: top five linemen in the league. I don't care what 2237 01:49:20,040 --> 01:49:23,280 Speaker 1: position you're talking about, top five linemen in the league. 2238 01:49:23,400 --> 01:49:27,600 Speaker 1: He is unbelievable. UM. And Oliver didn't get embarrassed, but 2239 01:49:27,920 --> 01:49:30,840 Speaker 1: he was neutralized. UM. I don't think he was embarrassed, 2240 01:49:30,880 --> 01:49:34,200 Speaker 1: but he was stalemated for the most part there. And 2241 01:49:34,479 --> 01:49:38,080 Speaker 1: you can understand why. I thought Cody Ford did fine 2242 01:49:38,479 --> 01:49:42,519 Speaker 1: playing both guard and tackle with the second unit, with 2243 01:49:42,680 --> 01:49:44,920 Speaker 1: the second unit to keep him fresh at tackle, because 2244 01:49:44,920 --> 01:49:47,160 Speaker 1: I think he's still part of that equation. I think 2245 01:49:47,240 --> 01:49:52,040 Speaker 1: there is an undecided part of this offensive line. And 2246 01:49:52,320 --> 01:49:54,960 Speaker 1: I think we're getting to the nitty gritty time here 2247 01:49:55,040 --> 01:49:58,400 Speaker 1: where coaches are going to start getting nervous because they 2248 01:49:58,479 --> 01:50:00,840 Speaker 1: want the five together, they want them getting their reps. 2249 01:50:01,200 --> 01:50:03,759 Speaker 1: We need to know who the five are, and injuries 2250 01:50:03,760 --> 01:50:06,599 Speaker 1: are still keeping that from happening, whether it's Mitch Morris 2251 01:50:06,640 --> 01:50:10,040 Speaker 1: at center or Spencer Long who's finally coming back into 2252 01:50:10,080 --> 01:50:12,920 Speaker 1: the equation, Feliciano coming back from the shoulder. But there 2253 01:50:13,000 --> 01:50:15,120 Speaker 1: we are again, guys. We talked about this when I 2254 01:50:15,200 --> 01:50:18,639 Speaker 1: was on the show earlier in the week in Secie 2255 01:50:18,640 --> 01:50:20,880 Speaker 1: at right tackle, Ford at right guard. That just started 2256 01:50:20,880 --> 01:50:23,760 Speaker 1: happening on Monday, and they have to start that was 2257 01:50:24,080 --> 01:50:26,080 Speaker 1: That's what we knew was going to happen with the 2258 01:50:26,160 --> 01:50:28,000 Speaker 1: line going into the game last night. And then all 2259 01:50:28,040 --> 01:50:30,720 Speaker 1: of a sudden, there's Feliciano at center. Yeah, it's like, 2260 01:50:30,920 --> 01:50:33,960 Speaker 1: holy crap, there's another thing. Yeah, another shuffle of the 2261 01:50:34,040 --> 01:50:37,240 Speaker 1: deck and Bodin's reduced to second and third team, and 2262 01:50:38,000 --> 01:50:39,360 Speaker 1: you know, I know you don't want to read too 2263 01:50:39,439 --> 01:50:40,720 Speaker 1: much into it, but I don't know if that's a 2264 01:50:40,800 --> 01:50:43,320 Speaker 1: great sign for Bodine, who took a lot of the 2265 01:50:43,360 --> 01:50:46,080 Speaker 1: first and second team reps in practice all week. Guy's 2266 01:50:46,120 --> 01:50:47,600 Speaker 1: busting his tail and then all of a sudden the 2267 01:50:47,680 --> 01:50:50,880 Speaker 1: second team. It's like, oh, that can't be it can't 2268 01:50:50,880 --> 01:50:52,479 Speaker 1: be read. It's a very good thing for him. I 2269 01:50:52,560 --> 01:50:54,120 Speaker 1: think the problem is and I don't know if the 2270 01:50:54,280 --> 01:50:56,280 Speaker 1: problem it felt bad for him, right, Frank, It is 2271 01:50:56,320 --> 01:50:58,000 Speaker 1: either a problem or how you look at it. I 2272 01:50:58,040 --> 01:51:00,760 Speaker 1: think the I think Cody Ford's probably the best guard 2273 01:51:00,800 --> 01:51:05,160 Speaker 1: they've got on their squad, him maybe and maybe Spain 2274 01:51:05,520 --> 01:51:07,080 Speaker 1: or the way they see it right well, and the 2275 01:51:07,160 --> 01:51:10,280 Speaker 1: problem too, is Long, who might be your next best 2276 01:51:10,360 --> 01:51:14,400 Speaker 1: guard option, has been nicked up with the NIE. If 2277 01:51:14,479 --> 01:51:16,960 Speaker 1: Ford is your best guard on the team, he's also 2278 01:51:17,040 --> 01:51:20,639 Speaker 1: one of your three best tackles, right, So now who 2279 01:51:20,960 --> 01:51:23,360 Speaker 1: is a So I think they're like this because they 2280 01:51:23,439 --> 01:51:25,960 Speaker 1: have not seen enough of Long. I think when they 2281 01:51:26,080 --> 01:51:28,400 Speaker 1: signed Spencer Long they're like, this guy's gonna be in 2282 01:51:28,439 --> 01:51:30,080 Speaker 1: the mix to be one of our starting guards. I 2283 01:51:30,120 --> 01:51:33,240 Speaker 1: think they thought that from the outset, but time on 2284 01:51:33,320 --> 01:51:36,000 Speaker 1: the field, it's just hasn't been there. So now they've 2285 01:51:36,000 --> 01:51:39,320 Speaker 1: got a cross train Ford where he's in an if 2286 01:51:39,400 --> 01:51:42,280 Speaker 1: then situation, you know what I mean. It's like I'm 2287 01:51:42,360 --> 01:51:45,400 Speaker 1: channeling my math course one teacher in the ninth grade 2288 01:51:45,520 --> 01:51:48,120 Speaker 1: right now, if then probabilities and all that stuff. But no, 2289 01:51:48,439 --> 01:51:51,320 Speaker 1: he's in an if then situation. If Spencer Long is 2290 01:51:51,360 --> 01:51:54,080 Speaker 1: healthy and we like what we see, Cody Ford'll play 2291 01:51:54,160 --> 01:51:56,519 Speaker 1: right tackle. If Spencer Long can't stay on the field 2292 01:51:56,560 --> 01:51:58,439 Speaker 1: long enough or isn't doing enough of what we need 2293 01:51:58,520 --> 01:52:00,519 Speaker 1: to see from him at right guard, well then he's 2294 01:52:00,520 --> 01:52:02,280 Speaker 1: gonna play right guard and tie and Seck's gonna be 2295 01:52:02,280 --> 01:52:05,840 Speaker 1: the right tackle. And that's what's still being juggled right 2296 01:52:05,880 --> 01:52:09,160 Speaker 1: comes down to is Tye and Secki a better right 2297 01:52:09,240 --> 01:52:13,439 Speaker 1: tackle than Spencer Long is a guard? Because then whichever 2298 01:52:13,560 --> 01:52:16,760 Speaker 1: one is worse were importantly what's the best what's the 2299 01:52:16,840 --> 01:52:20,000 Speaker 1: better combination Forden and Zeki or Long and ford right? 2300 01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:21,760 Speaker 1: You know? That's and you know, and when the heck 2301 01:52:21,840 --> 01:52:23,800 Speaker 1: is Mitch Morris coming back, that's the other one. That's 2302 01:52:23,880 --> 01:52:27,599 Speaker 1: because now Spencer Long could be in the center conversation too. 2303 01:52:27,760 --> 01:52:30,080 Speaker 1: That's exactly he played center for the Jets last year 2304 01:52:30,880 --> 01:52:34,479 Speaker 1: and has done it. Yeah, and so and then you 2305 01:52:34,600 --> 01:52:37,120 Speaker 1: get into okay, is Spencer Long your backup center and 2306 01:52:37,160 --> 01:52:40,040 Speaker 1: you're starting guard or you're starting center and your backup guard. 2307 01:52:40,120 --> 01:52:42,000 Speaker 1: So get ready, So get ready for this. And I'm 2308 01:52:42,040 --> 01:52:43,599 Speaker 1: not saying this is going to happen, but I wouldn't 2309 01:52:43,600 --> 01:52:47,439 Speaker 1: be surprised if it does. Feliciano plays center last night, 2310 01:52:48,640 --> 01:52:50,400 Speaker 1: if Morrise is still not ready, and I don't know 2311 01:52:50,439 --> 01:52:52,040 Speaker 1: there's any indication that he's going to be ready to 2312 01:52:52,120 --> 01:52:55,800 Speaker 1: play in a preseason game next Friday, I wouldn't anticipate 2313 01:52:55,880 --> 01:52:58,120 Speaker 1: that even if he somehow gets back in the practice 2314 01:52:58,120 --> 01:53:00,800 Speaker 1: setting this week, Spencer Long to be your starting center 2315 01:53:00,960 --> 01:53:03,000 Speaker 1: next week, that's right, you know? And then now you've 2316 01:53:03,040 --> 01:53:06,240 Speaker 1: got that thing going on there, and then his FOURD 2317 01:53:06,240 --> 01:53:09,880 Speaker 1: at guard again. Because of that, he might be through 2318 01:53:09,880 --> 01:53:14,559 Speaker 1: the draft class singletary, Hello, are we all on board now? 2319 01:53:15,040 --> 01:53:16,760 Speaker 1: I mean I don't think anybody was off the train. 2320 01:53:17,000 --> 01:53:20,240 Speaker 1: I think people were waiting and seeing. But I told 2321 01:53:20,280 --> 01:53:21,960 Speaker 1: you that was the guy I wanted to watch last night. 2322 01:53:22,000 --> 01:53:24,200 Speaker 1: And I think now fans understand why he really had 2323 01:53:24,240 --> 01:53:26,639 Speaker 1: a nice series there. They've used him alan they threw 2324 01:53:26,680 --> 01:53:30,639 Speaker 1: it to seven out of eight plays. Yeah, and there 2325 01:53:30,760 --> 01:53:32,800 Speaker 1: wasn't a whole lot to work with at times when 2326 01:53:32,840 --> 01:53:34,840 Speaker 1: he got the ball. And you want to talk about 2327 01:53:34,840 --> 01:53:37,160 Speaker 1: a kid that can make something out of nothing, Yeah, 2328 01:53:37,240 --> 01:53:40,880 Speaker 1: he's good like that. I mean, look, I don't want 2329 01:53:40,880 --> 01:53:43,200 Speaker 1: to make comparisons or anything, but the way he's able 2330 01:53:43,240 --> 01:53:46,200 Speaker 1: to find creases and get little gains when maybe there 2331 01:53:46,200 --> 01:53:47,920 Speaker 1: should he should be dropped for a loss or two. 2332 01:53:47,960 --> 01:53:50,360 Speaker 1: When he gets one or two in the positive direction, 2333 01:53:50,600 --> 01:53:52,639 Speaker 1: you know, a's second and eight instead of second and twelve. 2334 01:53:52,920 --> 01:53:55,200 Speaker 1: That's a big deal. In the NFL, that is a 2335 01:53:55,360 --> 01:53:58,680 Speaker 1: big deal. And just seeing him worm his way out 2336 01:53:58,720 --> 01:54:02,720 Speaker 1: of problems or you know, a miss assignment somewhere and 2337 01:54:02,920 --> 01:54:07,200 Speaker 1: still fall forward or get two or three that's a 2338 01:54:07,280 --> 01:54:10,000 Speaker 1: big deal for a rookie running back to know how 2339 01:54:10,080 --> 01:54:12,559 Speaker 1: to do that. And that was his calling card at 2340 01:54:12,600 --> 01:54:16,400 Speaker 1: Florida Atlantic. Um a guy that would make get you 2341 01:54:16,560 --> 01:54:19,160 Speaker 1: more than you rightfully should have got. And you know 2342 01:54:19,200 --> 01:54:22,160 Speaker 1: who does that really well? Frank Gore has done that 2343 01:54:22,240 --> 01:54:24,519 Speaker 1: really well for a long time. It's supposed to be 2344 01:54:24,560 --> 01:54:26,639 Speaker 1: a two yard game. He gets four. Oh yeah, that's true. 2345 01:54:26,720 --> 01:54:28,400 Speaker 1: You know what I mean, he gets contact. He's right, 2346 01:54:28,439 --> 01:54:34,200 Speaker 1: But I think Singletary, No, I'm saying he's got a 2347 01:54:34,200 --> 01:54:36,760 Speaker 1: little bit of both those guys, Shawan and Singletary. I'm 2348 01:54:37,160 --> 01:54:40,160 Speaker 1: Lashawn and Gore in him. He's he's shifty and tough 2349 01:54:40,240 --> 01:54:43,880 Speaker 1: to tackle in a tight space like Lashawn. But last 2350 01:54:43,960 --> 01:54:46,360 Speaker 1: night he ran some physical power runs with some guys 2351 01:54:46,440 --> 01:54:48,200 Speaker 1: hanging on him in tight spaces and got a little 2352 01:54:48,280 --> 01:54:50,680 Speaker 1: bit of something that wasn't there and catching out of 2353 01:54:50,680 --> 01:54:53,440 Speaker 1: the back game thing that he was not asked to 2354 01:54:53,480 --> 01:54:55,200 Speaker 1: do with Florida Atlantic. And I don't know what the 2355 01:54:55,240 --> 01:54:57,760 Speaker 1: Hellane Kiffin was thinking down there. Throw that kid the ball. 2356 01:54:57,880 --> 01:55:00,720 Speaker 1: Holy cow, he missed the boat on that lane. That's 2357 01:55:00,760 --> 01:55:03,040 Speaker 1: going on lane back end of the draft class and 2358 01:55:03,320 --> 01:55:06,400 Speaker 1: even you know Vashon Joseph got the intention of our 2359 01:55:06,440 --> 01:55:09,840 Speaker 1: boy Greg Cosal last hour fifth round pickshon Joseph had 2360 01:55:09,880 --> 01:55:13,800 Speaker 1: really good moments. He's aggressive, and so I think he's 2361 01:55:13,840 --> 01:55:15,960 Speaker 1: always gonna be around the ball. But you know, it 2362 01:55:16,040 --> 01:55:18,360 Speaker 1: was around the ball even more than him. Jaquan Johnson 2363 01:55:18,520 --> 01:55:22,120 Speaker 1: led the team and tackle Jaquan Johnson. Granted, he got 2364 01:55:22,160 --> 01:55:23,680 Speaker 1: a lot of playing time in the second half, so 2365 01:55:23,760 --> 01:55:26,240 Speaker 1: you would anticipate his numbers would be high at the 2366 01:55:26,360 --> 01:55:29,920 Speaker 1: end of the game. This kid is around the ball 2367 01:55:30,200 --> 01:55:35,880 Speaker 1: a lot. He's very instinctive, very instinctive player, which is 2368 01:55:35,920 --> 01:55:37,920 Speaker 1: hard to kind of get a handle on in the 2369 01:55:38,000 --> 01:55:41,400 Speaker 1: practice setting, especially going against an offense you've seen every 2370 01:55:41,520 --> 01:55:44,040 Speaker 1: day day. Like it's hard to judge whether a player 2371 01:55:44,480 --> 01:55:48,120 Speaker 1: has instincts like that. Jikwan Johnson has instinct because he's 2372 01:55:48,120 --> 01:55:51,280 Speaker 1: not the fastest guy, right and he might not be 2373 01:55:51,720 --> 01:55:55,120 Speaker 1: supremely athletic, but he's athletic enough to play safety, and 2374 01:55:55,240 --> 01:55:59,080 Speaker 1: his instincts let him play faster, and that's why he's 2375 01:55:59,120 --> 01:56:00,960 Speaker 1: around the ball as much as he was last night. 2376 01:56:01,000 --> 01:56:03,960 Speaker 1: So I liked Darryl Johnson, and I think some of 2377 01:56:04,040 --> 01:56:06,800 Speaker 1: his flashing was obvious because it's right around the ball 2378 01:56:06,840 --> 01:56:09,640 Speaker 1: all the time, I might have liked Jikwan Johnson even 2379 01:56:09,720 --> 01:56:12,440 Speaker 1: better for what he was able to show through the 2380 01:56:12,520 --> 01:56:14,960 Speaker 1: course of his playing time. Last night, everybody could see 2381 01:56:15,040 --> 01:56:17,400 Speaker 1: Daryl Johnson, and I get it he played well. But 2382 01:56:17,720 --> 01:56:19,760 Speaker 1: I was thinking last night I had the thought in 2383 01:56:19,840 --> 01:56:22,160 Speaker 1: my head called on the game, watching jikuon Johnson, the 2384 01:56:22,240 --> 01:56:25,400 Speaker 1: Miami safety, thinking about our conversation with Ed Reid. Remember 2385 01:56:25,440 --> 01:56:27,480 Speaker 1: how Ed Reid told us how much he worked with him, 2386 01:56:27,680 --> 01:56:29,920 Speaker 1: And when Brownie talks about his instincts, you're gonna I've 2387 01:56:29,920 --> 01:56:32,320 Speaker 1: talked to myself. I wonder, is that just from being 2388 01:56:32,320 --> 01:56:34,840 Speaker 1: around Ed Reid he has again instinctively knows where to go. 2389 01:56:35,000 --> 01:56:37,080 Speaker 1: It's about having an I guess maybe I don't know. 2390 01:56:37,360 --> 01:56:39,360 Speaker 1: I can't speak to him, but maybe having a mentor 2391 01:56:39,480 --> 01:56:41,200 Speaker 1: like Ed Reid gives him the freedom to get in 2392 01:56:41,240 --> 01:56:43,160 Speaker 1: the right mindset to let him play like that because 2393 01:56:43,200 --> 01:56:45,800 Speaker 1: it's certainly in his ability. Yeah, I believe what I think. 2394 01:56:45,920 --> 01:56:50,640 Speaker 1: If anything, Ed has probably convinced him to trust what 2395 01:56:50,800 --> 01:56:54,040 Speaker 1: you see because you have an ability to see it early. 2396 01:56:54,760 --> 01:56:57,960 Speaker 1: And that's what makes him an NFL caliber player, because 2397 01:56:58,000 --> 01:57:00,120 Speaker 1: if you look at him on a stop watch and 2398 01:57:00,280 --> 01:57:03,280 Speaker 1: you look at him in all of the combined drills. 2399 01:57:04,480 --> 01:57:06,880 Speaker 1: Some people would wonder if he's if he could measure 2400 01:57:06,960 --> 01:57:10,240 Speaker 1: up he's like, but then you watch him play. He's 2401 01:57:10,280 --> 01:57:14,200 Speaker 1: not an athlete. He's a football player. That's what's in 2402 01:57:14,240 --> 01:57:16,880 Speaker 1: the sixth round. Well, right, But yeah, he's got a 2403 01:57:16,960 --> 01:57:18,720 Speaker 1: future in this league if he keeps going the way 2404 01:57:18,760 --> 01:57:20,160 Speaker 1: he's going. Hey, I want there's a couple of others. 2405 01:57:20,160 --> 01:57:21,640 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about Chris Brown. But let's 2406 01:57:21,640 --> 01:57:23,760 Speaker 1: take a phone call here, David Florida. Go ahead, you're 2407 01:57:23,800 --> 01:57:26,040 Speaker 1: on the air of this, Dave. Hey, guys, I are 2408 01:57:26,040 --> 01:57:29,960 Speaker 1: you doing today? Great? Listen. I really disappointed. I didn't 2409 01:57:30,000 --> 01:57:33,920 Speaker 1: get they blocked the game out down here play, But 2410 01:57:34,080 --> 01:57:35,840 Speaker 1: I was calling to ask him about how my boy 2411 01:57:35,920 --> 01:57:41,360 Speaker 1: did Mulano play? And train Emmons? Did they play? Yeah? 2412 01:57:41,440 --> 01:57:43,640 Speaker 1: They were public series. They got in there, and the 2413 01:57:43,880 --> 01:57:45,880 Speaker 1: Colts came out and ran the football a lot more 2414 01:57:45,920 --> 01:57:48,240 Speaker 1: than they threw at that Jacoby Pricente taking snaps. They 2415 01:57:48,320 --> 01:57:51,320 Speaker 1: tried to hand it off a lot, and Milano and 2416 01:57:51,880 --> 01:57:55,200 Speaker 1: and Tremaine and the rest of the defense stuffed him. 2417 01:57:55,600 --> 01:57:57,680 Speaker 1: I mean, they had no shot run on the bootball. 2418 01:57:57,680 --> 01:57:59,960 Speaker 1: They could not The Colts could not run the football 2419 01:58:00,120 --> 01:58:02,960 Speaker 1: on the ones I thought ed was instinctive in reading 2420 01:58:03,000 --> 01:58:04,960 Speaker 1: those run plays. They were going to say they we 2421 01:58:05,120 --> 01:58:07,600 Speaker 1: see him every day Edmonds at camp, and wow, he's good. 2422 01:58:07,800 --> 01:58:10,120 Speaker 1: And you see him in a competitive atmosphere and I'm like, oh, yeah, 2423 01:58:10,200 --> 01:58:12,040 Speaker 1: he's really good. Yeah. They were attacking the line of 2424 01:58:12,040 --> 01:58:14,680 Speaker 1: scrimmage right at the snap. I mean they were making 2425 01:58:14,760 --> 01:58:17,480 Speaker 1: reads and and being really aggressive, and the run game 2426 01:58:17,600 --> 01:58:19,680 Speaker 1: was just completely bottled up by the cold. And I mean, 2427 01:58:19,760 --> 01:58:24,640 Speaker 1: as I was, I did my Training Camp Awards, you know, yeah, 2428 01:58:24,760 --> 01:58:26,480 Speaker 1: well we're happy to help, but I mean I was 2429 01:58:26,520 --> 01:58:30,080 Speaker 1: doing my Training Camp Awards earlier this week, and for 2430 01:58:30,200 --> 01:58:32,960 Speaker 1: most for most Promising Player, I had Josh Allen. The 2431 01:58:33,040 --> 01:58:36,800 Speaker 1: honorable mention was Tremaine Edmonds because as much as everybody's 2432 01:58:36,800 --> 01:58:39,680 Speaker 1: focused on Josh and what he needs to be for 2433 01:58:39,800 --> 01:58:44,520 Speaker 1: this team, Tremaine Edmonds could explode this year as a 2434 01:58:44,560 --> 01:58:46,720 Speaker 1: player on defense for this team. Just a few minutes 2435 01:58:46,800 --> 01:58:49,160 Speaker 1: left with Chris Brown, Bills Insider Buffalo Bills dot Com, 2436 01:58:49,560 --> 01:58:53,200 Speaker 1: the receiving battle and he standouts any movement any well, 2437 01:58:53,240 --> 01:58:55,240 Speaker 1: I thought Mackenzie flashed and I thought he had to 2438 01:58:55,440 --> 01:58:58,440 Speaker 1: quite frankly, he had to make plays. Here's the thing 2439 01:58:58,800 --> 01:59:02,640 Speaker 1: with Isaiah McKenzie. He's the same guy as Ray Ray 2440 01:59:02,720 --> 01:59:06,040 Speaker 1: McLeod and the same guy as Victor Bolden Jr. Who's 2441 01:59:06,040 --> 01:59:08,520 Speaker 1: further down on the depth chart, you know, diminutive type 2442 01:59:08,560 --> 01:59:14,200 Speaker 1: player who has to get separation and give a coaching 2443 01:59:14,320 --> 01:59:18,520 Speaker 1: staff confidence and a quarterback confidence that even though he's 2444 01:59:18,520 --> 01:59:21,840 Speaker 1: a smurf, as Sean McDermott likes to call them, that 2445 01:59:22,000 --> 01:59:25,720 Speaker 1: he can win and make plays for you outside. I 2446 01:59:25,800 --> 01:59:28,400 Speaker 1: think I don't think there's any doubt the kid can 2447 01:59:28,480 --> 01:59:31,320 Speaker 1: run a crossing pattern and get open for you. But 2448 01:59:31,600 --> 01:59:36,280 Speaker 1: outside along the sideline, when a dB has inside leverage 2449 01:59:36,320 --> 01:59:38,520 Speaker 1: on you, can I drop it in the bucket and 2450 01:59:38,560 --> 01:59:41,480 Speaker 1: can you make a play? And he showed an ability 2451 01:59:41,600 --> 01:59:43,520 Speaker 1: on a one or two plays to do that. Make 2452 01:59:43,600 --> 01:59:47,320 Speaker 1: plays outside near the sideline areas outside the numbers. That's 2453 01:59:47,320 --> 01:59:51,200 Speaker 1: where he's got to show up to convince the coaches. Yeah, 2454 01:59:51,280 --> 01:59:52,600 Speaker 1: you may want to put me in the slot, but 2455 01:59:52,680 --> 01:59:54,320 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley is going to be there, you know what 2456 01:59:54,360 --> 01:59:57,480 Speaker 1: I mean, right, Convince them you can be a fifth 2457 01:59:57,560 --> 02:00:00,400 Speaker 1: wide out and maybe if we go for or wide 2458 02:00:00,440 --> 02:00:02,600 Speaker 1: in a game plan in a given week, you can 2459 02:00:02,680 --> 02:00:04,720 Speaker 1: be one of those guys outside that can still make 2460 02:00:04,760 --> 02:00:07,160 Speaker 1: plays for us. Even though you're small, And he said 2461 02:00:07,200 --> 02:00:08,960 Speaker 1: after the game, because we were talking to him a 2462 02:00:08,960 --> 02:00:12,480 Speaker 1: little bit, he said, John Brown has helped him enormously 2463 02:00:13,440 --> 02:00:17,360 Speaker 1: in little tricks of the trade to get the separation 2464 02:00:17,480 --> 02:00:20,920 Speaker 1: because McKenzie is a player who has to get separation 2465 02:00:21,360 --> 02:00:24,680 Speaker 1: when there are contested balls. He's not gonna win a 2466 02:00:24,760 --> 02:00:27,400 Speaker 1: lot of those unless he's a step or two away 2467 02:00:27,560 --> 02:00:29,920 Speaker 1: from the dB. He can't have a guy on his 2468 02:00:30,000 --> 02:00:33,640 Speaker 1: back shoulder and make a play as easily as maybe 2469 02:00:33,680 --> 02:00:36,080 Speaker 1: a z A Jones or Robert Foster, just because he 2470 02:00:36,160 --> 02:00:38,800 Speaker 1: doesn't have the reach to get to the ball before him. 2471 02:00:38,840 --> 02:00:41,080 Speaker 1: So I thought he took a step in that regard 2472 02:00:41,200 --> 02:00:43,040 Speaker 1: and then also had a nice return to the wide 2473 02:00:43,080 --> 02:00:45,600 Speaker 1: side of the field. Got twenty plus yards on a 2474 02:00:45,680 --> 02:00:47,920 Speaker 1: return in the punt return game. Is he going to 2475 02:00:47,960 --> 02:00:50,440 Speaker 1: be the punt returner? Probably not, But if Andre Roberts 2476 02:00:50,480 --> 02:00:52,800 Speaker 1: gets hurt, if he's known as the next best option, 2477 02:00:53,000 --> 02:00:56,400 Speaker 1: that helps him you know who else and maybe distinguished 2478 02:00:56,480 --> 02:01:00,600 Speaker 1: himself as a guy who can get contested ball. Cam Phillips, 2479 02:01:00,680 --> 02:01:02,800 Speaker 1: who's at a solid camp good night last night. Cam 2480 02:01:02,880 --> 02:01:06,040 Speaker 1: Phillips is probably one of the smartest receivers on the roster. 2481 02:01:07,160 --> 02:01:10,040 Speaker 1: Again this is a guy like Jaquan Johnson. He's not 2482 02:01:10,120 --> 02:01:12,840 Speaker 1: gonna light up your stop watch. He's not gonna blow 2483 02:01:12,920 --> 02:01:16,000 Speaker 1: you away in a combine workout. But he's a football player. 2484 02:01:16,320 --> 02:01:18,600 Speaker 1: He's a guy that's gonna find the open spaces in 2485 02:01:18,720 --> 02:01:20,880 Speaker 1: his own coverage and sit down at the right place 2486 02:01:20,960 --> 02:01:24,320 Speaker 1: at the right time and when there's a little bit 2487 02:01:24,400 --> 02:01:26,240 Speaker 1: of extra time and he's got to work a little 2488 02:01:26,280 --> 02:01:29,160 Speaker 1: bit harder for his quarterback, he's gonna find the right 2489 02:01:29,240 --> 02:01:31,560 Speaker 1: spot in the end zone, which he did. He doubled 2490 02:01:31,600 --> 02:01:33,640 Speaker 1: back and went to the corner when he saw his 2491 02:01:33,760 --> 02:01:37,400 Speaker 1: quarterback rolling to the right and made himself available. He 2492 02:01:37,560 --> 02:01:40,200 Speaker 1: worked for his quarterback late in the play and it 2493 02:01:40,320 --> 02:01:43,320 Speaker 1: paid off for him. Ye. Yeah. He's also you know 2494 02:01:43,400 --> 02:01:47,520 Speaker 1: you talk about six foot two a ones well, Cam Phillips, 2495 02:01:48,440 --> 02:01:52,320 Speaker 1: he's not a smurf, no, he's and he's squarely built, 2496 02:01:52,440 --> 02:01:55,560 Speaker 1: you know through the shoulders, you know, he's not thick 2497 02:01:55,680 --> 02:01:57,800 Speaker 1: all the way through, but upper body, he's he's a 2498 02:01:57,840 --> 02:01:59,960 Speaker 1: little broad shoulder, more broad shoulder than some of the 2499 02:02:00,160 --> 02:02:02,520 Speaker 1: other guys. And is he gonna make the roster, I 2500 02:02:02,560 --> 02:02:05,560 Speaker 1: don't know, but he's got practice squad eligibility. That's a 2501 02:02:05,640 --> 02:02:08,480 Speaker 1: guy that you keep around in case crisis strikes and 2502 02:02:08,560 --> 02:02:10,440 Speaker 1: you have an injury rat. I'm telling somebody and one 2503 02:02:10,480 --> 02:02:12,240 Speaker 1: more guy to ask you about. I was telling somebody 2504 02:02:12,280 --> 02:02:14,800 Speaker 1: this morning, Tyree Jackson may have had more snaps last 2505 02:02:14,880 --> 02:02:16,560 Speaker 1: night than he's had through the first two weeks at camp. 2506 02:02:17,200 --> 02:02:19,680 Speaker 1: You know what I mean, you probably did. And I 2507 02:02:19,800 --> 02:02:24,000 Speaker 1: think what Tyree has to develop is a changeup or 2508 02:02:24,040 --> 02:02:28,040 Speaker 1: an off speed pitch, because holy crow, I mean, everything's 2509 02:02:28,040 --> 02:02:30,120 Speaker 1: coming out one hundred and fifty miles an hour, whether 2510 02:02:30,200 --> 02:02:32,920 Speaker 1: you're running a route to the flat, a swing pass, 2511 02:02:33,600 --> 02:02:37,120 Speaker 1: or a go route, he is winging it at you 2512 02:02:38,080 --> 02:02:40,280 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty miles an hour. He's got to 2513 02:02:40,680 --> 02:02:43,600 Speaker 1: I think he's got to get a better handle for 2514 02:02:43,720 --> 02:02:47,040 Speaker 1: the route that he's throwing it. And we're going right 2515 02:02:47,080 --> 02:02:52,560 Speaker 1: back Murph to the combine and to Steve Smith whispering 2516 02:02:52,640 --> 02:02:55,800 Speaker 1: to him, Hey, these guys are trying to make NFL 2517 02:02:55,880 --> 02:02:58,800 Speaker 1: money too. Help make them look good. Take a little 2518 02:02:58,840 --> 02:03:02,680 Speaker 1: bit off your fastball. And part of it is, you know, 2519 02:03:02,960 --> 02:03:06,360 Speaker 1: his internal clock is in hyper drive. Right, I got 2520 02:03:06,400 --> 02:03:08,200 Speaker 1: two and a half seconds, I got boom. I gotta 2521 02:03:08,200 --> 02:03:09,280 Speaker 1: get it out. You know what I mean, He's not 2522 02:03:09,360 --> 02:03:12,640 Speaker 1: even thinking about so much he's putting on the ball 2523 02:03:12,760 --> 02:03:14,160 Speaker 1: right now. He's just trying to get rid of it 2524 02:03:14,240 --> 02:03:17,040 Speaker 1: before he gets hit. So I get where his mind 2525 02:03:17,160 --> 02:03:19,440 Speaker 1: is at and where he's coming from. But if he 2526 02:03:20,360 --> 02:03:23,520 Speaker 1: understands here's my check down, I gotta get it there. 2527 02:03:23,640 --> 02:03:25,480 Speaker 1: But I've got a good arm. Let me take a 2528 02:03:25,520 --> 02:03:27,280 Speaker 1: little bit off so my guy can make a play 2529 02:03:27,320 --> 02:03:29,120 Speaker 1: after the catch. Yeah, he tried to be better off. 2530 02:03:29,200 --> 02:03:30,880 Speaker 1: He tried to hit Duke Williams on a couple of 2531 02:03:30,920 --> 02:03:33,480 Speaker 1: back shoulders last night, trying to give Duke a chance 2532 02:03:33,520 --> 02:03:36,640 Speaker 1: to make a play. But yeah, they were He was 2533 02:03:36,680 --> 02:03:39,080 Speaker 1: pretty accurate, I thought all night. But on those back shoulders, 2534 02:03:39,120 --> 02:03:40,440 Speaker 1: he was a little bit off and they had some 2535 02:03:40,600 --> 02:03:42,360 Speaker 1: velocity on him. That kind of made it hard for 2536 02:03:42,480 --> 02:03:45,920 Speaker 1: the you know, for the receiver to gather himself and 2537 02:03:46,000 --> 02:03:47,760 Speaker 1: go up and get it, because if it's not going 2538 02:03:47,800 --> 02:03:51,160 Speaker 1: to be right on target, you gotta go up instead 2539 02:03:51,200 --> 02:03:53,040 Speaker 1: of just turn and catch it off the sideline. And 2540 02:03:53,160 --> 02:03:56,360 Speaker 1: I get a feeling that the Bills know what he is. 2541 02:03:57,120 --> 02:04:01,360 Speaker 1: He's a raw developmental project, and that's why I think 2542 02:04:01,440 --> 02:04:03,720 Speaker 1: he'll probably be on the practice squad, and I think 2543 02:04:03,760 --> 02:04:06,600 Speaker 1: they're going to see let's let's see the steps he 2544 02:04:06,680 --> 02:04:11,000 Speaker 1: can take in his rookie season on the practice squad, 2545 02:04:11,120 --> 02:04:14,040 Speaker 1: run and scout team every year or every week, Let's 2546 02:04:14,080 --> 02:04:17,840 Speaker 1: see if his you know, game can develop. Let's see 2547 02:04:17,880 --> 02:04:19,680 Speaker 1: where he is next year this time, right, and so 2548 02:04:19,840 --> 02:04:22,120 Speaker 1: maybe you know, you sign him as a reserve future 2549 02:04:22,160 --> 02:04:23,760 Speaker 1: free agent at the end of this year, You'll work 2550 02:04:23,840 --> 02:04:26,240 Speaker 1: with him another offseason and let's see where he goes. Hey, 2551 02:04:26,320 --> 02:04:28,600 Speaker 1: Chris Um, I'm not looking forward to sweating all next 2552 02:04:28,600 --> 02:04:30,760 Speaker 1: week in Carolina, but I am looking just talk to 2553 02:04:30,840 --> 02:04:34,040 Speaker 1: my mom today. Triple digits, triple digits and they're on 2554 02:04:34,040 --> 02:04:37,520 Speaker 1: the condred in three. We're Inland. Yeah, I am looking 2555 02:04:37,560 --> 02:04:39,240 Speaker 1: for going to be worse problem. I'm looking forward to 2556 02:04:39,280 --> 02:04:43,320 Speaker 1: a different preseason week, Right, It'll be different practicing with 2557 02:04:43,360 --> 02:04:45,880 Speaker 1: those guys. Think they'll definitely be a lot more intensity, 2558 02:04:46,360 --> 02:04:48,560 Speaker 1: which you know makes me kind of bite my nails 2559 02:04:48,560 --> 02:04:51,120 Speaker 1: a little bit because I worry about injury, especially for 2560 02:04:51,240 --> 02:04:53,880 Speaker 1: that offensive line, which is already a little shorthanded and 2561 02:04:54,360 --> 02:04:57,640 Speaker 1: trying to find answers. It's look, I know, the whole 2562 02:04:57,720 --> 02:04:59,440 Speaker 1: reason they set this up in the first place is 2563 02:04:59,440 --> 02:05:03,680 Speaker 1: because there's mutual respect and trust between the two head coaches. 2564 02:05:03,760 --> 02:05:06,080 Speaker 1: Chiefly you know, Ron Rivera is not going to take 2565 02:05:06,120 --> 02:05:08,440 Speaker 1: any crap from his players doing stupid stuff, and neither 2566 02:05:08,480 --> 02:05:11,640 Speaker 1: his coach McDermott. So that should lend to a very 2567 02:05:11,720 --> 02:05:15,040 Speaker 1: competitive and intense atmosphere that doesn't step over the line. 2568 02:05:15,440 --> 02:05:17,120 Speaker 1: But I got news for you. When it's one hundred 2569 02:05:17,120 --> 02:05:19,680 Speaker 1: and three degrees with one hundred and ten heat index 2570 02:05:19,960 --> 02:05:23,240 Speaker 1: and seventy five percent humidity, guys are gonna get a 2571 02:05:23,280 --> 02:05:25,840 Speaker 1: little hot under the collar and some stupid stuff might happen. 2572 02:05:26,160 --> 02:05:29,560 Speaker 1: You're talking about our show, I think, yeah, well secondarily, 2573 02:05:29,600 --> 02:05:32,560 Speaker 1: but yeah, that'll be us.

Things they've shot by here today. 2580 02:05:57,960 --> 02:05:59,920 Speaker 1: I'm looking over what are we left on the table 2581 02:06:00,040 --> 02:06:01,480 Speaker 1: let me? Can I just go through it? You see? 2582 02:06:01,520 --> 02:06:03,200 Speaker 1: If you need to discuss any of these times I'm 2583 02:06:03,240 --> 02:06:05,840 Speaker 1: looking at, I'll run down Josh Allen. We talked about 2584 02:06:05,880 --> 02:06:10,120 Speaker 1: Matt Barkley, Tybree Jackson, Bill's rookies. We talked about defensive line, 2585 02:06:10,200 --> 02:06:13,760 Speaker 1: We talked about Singletary Way, as An McKenzie, Daryl Johnson, 2586 02:06:14,160 --> 02:06:17,720 Speaker 1: Jaquan Johnson. I don't know, there's nothing left to talk now, 2587 02:06:17,720 --> 02:06:20,320 Speaker 1: there's stuff to talk about, and you can get listeners, 2588 02:06:20,400 --> 02:06:22,040 Speaker 1: you can get in on this. Give us a call. 2589 02:06:22,160 --> 02:06:25,480 Speaker 1: What's your biggest takeaway from the preseason win eighth three 2590 02:06:25,680 --> 02:06:30,120 Speaker 1: fifty toll free one eight eight eighty fifty. Any observations 2591 02:06:30,120 --> 02:06:34,200 Speaker 1: about Sean McDermott's sideline management, ice and the Kicker? What 2592 02:06:34,320 --> 02:06:38,360 Speaker 1: about the review replay review replayers? He told us you 2593 02:06:38,400 --> 02:06:41,680 Speaker 1: were there Wednesday right right, that he was gonna kind 2594 02:06:41,680 --> 02:06:43,600 Speaker 1: of experiment a little bit. I thought he did. He's 2595 02:06:44,200 --> 02:06:47,400 Speaker 1: I cracked up my new partner, Eric Wood about Shawn's 2596 02:06:48,160 --> 02:06:51,000 Speaker 1: really bad record on replay reviews. He's one of ten 2597 02:06:51,120 --> 02:06:54,000 Speaker 1: as a head coach on replay challenges, and that one 2598 02:06:54,120 --> 02:06:56,600 Speaker 1: on account last night. But I thought he was determined 2599 02:06:56,640 --> 02:06:59,280 Speaker 1: to see how see how the mechanics of it would work. 2600 02:06:59,360 --> 02:07:03,240 Speaker 1: Probably not a good challenge to issue, and I think, 2601 02:07:04,080 --> 02:07:05,560 Speaker 1: you know, it's one game I don't want to make 2602 02:07:05,600 --> 02:07:08,800 Speaker 1: sweeping observations, but it appears from what I saw last 2603 02:07:08,880 --> 02:07:11,200 Speaker 1: night to replay challenges one from the Bills, one from 2604 02:07:11,200 --> 02:07:16,000 Speaker 1: the Colts, and some other situations, it seems like the league, Look, 2605 02:07:16,040 --> 02:07:18,160 Speaker 1: if you're going to challenge a no call like Frank 2606 02:07:18,200 --> 02:07:21,040 Speaker 1: Wright did right, no call challenge for like, it better 2607 02:07:21,120 --> 02:07:23,440 Speaker 1: be a really bad interference or you're not gonna get it. 2608 02:07:23,600 --> 02:07:25,640 Speaker 1: And I think I've seen that trend developing again. It's 2609 02:07:25,680 --> 02:07:28,360 Speaker 1: just one week, and I guess that's good. But I 2610 02:07:28,440 --> 02:07:30,880 Speaker 1: don't like the rule. I don't like. I don't like, 2611 02:07:31,160 --> 02:07:33,280 Speaker 1: and it's not even the delay that bothers me. It's 2612 02:07:33,320 --> 02:07:35,720 Speaker 1: just too much. It's too much replay. Yeah, I get it, 2613 02:07:35,880 --> 02:07:39,160 Speaker 1: there's nothing. Here's the thing. You and I talked about 2614 02:07:39,200 --> 02:07:41,720 Speaker 1: this when they were talking about changing this rule, that 2615 02:07:41,880 --> 02:07:45,440 Speaker 1: play that happened that started this whole cascade and discussion 2616 02:07:45,480 --> 02:07:49,000 Speaker 1: and Robie Coleman play in the NFC Championship. It's a 2617 02:07:49,120 --> 02:07:51,760 Speaker 1: kneat jerk reaction to something that has happened once in 2618 02:07:51,880 --> 02:07:56,320 Speaker 1: my lifetime, an egregious non call. And now they've got 2619 02:07:56,360 --> 02:08:02,760 Speaker 1: all this whole thought process and protocol for getting something 2620 02:08:02,880 --> 02:08:04,760 Speaker 1: like that right, they're never gonna use it, so they're 2621 02:08:04,800 --> 02:08:07,960 Speaker 1: not gonna The thought seems to be when they go 2622 02:08:08,040 --> 02:08:11,000 Speaker 1: back and say it was a non call, the guy 2623 02:08:11,320 --> 02:08:14,240 Speaker 1: better pulled a knife on the guy before they're gonna 2624 02:08:14,280 --> 02:08:17,480 Speaker 1: call it right now. There was one last the other 2625 02:08:17,600 --> 02:08:20,160 Speaker 1: day yesterday in the first weekend of the preseason, the 2626 02:08:20,320 --> 02:08:25,720 Speaker 1: Jets Giants game. The Jets receiver there was an incomplete pass. 2627 02:08:25,800 --> 02:08:28,839 Speaker 1: It fell right in front of him. The Giant defender 2628 02:08:30,160 --> 02:08:33,920 Speaker 1: defended the pass. The Jets challenged a non call and 2629 02:08:34,040 --> 02:08:37,200 Speaker 1: they got the penalty. It happened, and when I went 2630 02:08:37,280 --> 02:08:41,120 Speaker 1: back and looked at it, I agreed with it. It's 2631 02:08:42,120 --> 02:08:44,880 Speaker 1: the guy was holding his arm, his left arm down. 2632 02:08:45,000 --> 02:08:46,880 Speaker 1: The defender was holding the left arm of the receiver 2633 02:08:47,000 --> 02:08:50,480 Speaker 1: down going the right hand sideline, and the kid couldn't 2634 02:08:50,520 --> 02:08:52,640 Speaker 1: reach for the ball, and the ball literally dropped like 2635 02:08:52,840 --> 02:08:54,560 Speaker 1: four inches, you know, it just came right down in 2636 02:08:54,640 --> 02:08:56,760 Speaker 1: him and the guy the defender reached up and hit 2637 02:08:56,800 --> 02:08:59,400 Speaker 1: it with his other hand and knocked it away. Very 2638 02:08:59,480 --> 02:09:02,800 Speaker 1: innocuous play. They go back and they said, you know, 2639 02:09:02,880 --> 02:09:05,560 Speaker 1: he was holding his arm. We challenged it and they 2640 02:09:05,600 --> 02:09:11,680 Speaker 1: got the penalty. Yeah, okay, yeah, we don't need it. Yeah, 2641 02:09:12,000 --> 02:09:13,920 Speaker 1: we don't need those reviews. I get it. It was 2642 02:09:13,960 --> 02:09:16,920 Speaker 1: an injustice of the Jets. Oh, you know what, fight 2643 02:09:17,000 --> 02:09:18,600 Speaker 1: for the ball. You don't need it. It was a 2644 02:09:18,640 --> 02:09:22,000 Speaker 1: horrible injustice last year to the New Orleans Saints. And 2645 02:09:22,280 --> 02:09:24,800 Speaker 1: but they've overreacted, the coaches had The coaches are the 2646 02:09:24,800 --> 02:09:27,240 Speaker 1: one who forced this through at the owner's meetings. But 2647 02:09:27,280 --> 02:09:29,280 Speaker 1: you just don't need it. You don't need to add 2648 02:09:29,520 --> 02:09:32,880 Speaker 1: additional layers of replay. You're right, the protocol is complicated. 2649 02:09:33,360 --> 02:09:37,160 Speaker 1: The coaches, both Reich and McDermott last night experimenting, Sana, 2650 02:09:37,200 --> 02:09:38,760 Speaker 1: how's this gonna work? What are we gonna get? What 2651 02:09:38,840 --> 02:09:40,040 Speaker 1: are we not gonna get? How do we do this? 2652 02:09:40,160 --> 02:09:42,640 Speaker 1: It's it's just unnecessary. The simple fact of the matter 2653 02:09:42,720 --> 02:09:46,760 Speaker 1: is this like the old catch rule, you know, there's 2654 02:09:47,920 --> 02:09:50,720 Speaker 1: there's a subjective nature to what they're looking at. Was 2655 02:09:50,800 --> 02:09:54,760 Speaker 1: it substantial substantial hindrance to his ability to make a 2656 02:09:54,800 --> 02:09:58,480 Speaker 1: play on the ball. Not that substantial? Is the replay 2657 02:09:58,720 --> 02:10:01,080 Speaker 1: clear and obvious that the other standard? Right? Yeah? Is it? 2658 02:10:02,760 --> 02:10:04,680 Speaker 1: N you know, I mean you're still got this guy 2659 02:10:04,760 --> 02:10:07,240 Speaker 1: forming an opinion. It's not like if he does this, 2660 02:10:07,960 --> 02:10:10,080 Speaker 1: it's a penalty. If he does that, it's not. There's 2661 02:10:10,120 --> 02:10:13,480 Speaker 1: none of that there. So, yeah, I'm I'm down on it, down, 2662 02:10:13,560 --> 02:10:15,520 Speaker 1: down on it. Break. Here we're back with more one 2663 02:10:15,560 --> 02:10:17,760 Speaker 1: builds live from One built Drive and this is Buffalo 2664 02:10:17,880 --> 02:10:35,000 Speaker 1: Bills Radio.
