1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:03,120
Speaker 1: Ten games down, six more to go, just three at home,

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: three in the road. Only two opponents left with winning records,

3
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:08,880
Speaker 1: the Steelers in the Dolphins. The stretch run. It starts

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: today with the talented but underperforming opponent. Josh Allon under center,

5
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: takes the snap, fakes the handoffs, sets up the throw, blocks,

6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: He's got a man right open, gets it to him. Touchdown.

7
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,960
Speaker 1: Dawson knocks touchdown Buffalo, and Herbert gets the snap out

8
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,279
Speaker 1: of the gun. Waits fires and it is caught in

9
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: the end zone. Touchdown Los Angeles. Keenan Allen. Josh gonna

10
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: throw it behind him the beasy gonna throw it again

11
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: to a man wide open, Gabriel Davis. Touchdown Cold Beasley

12
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 1: to Gabriel Davis. How about that. Josh Allen keeps it himself,

13
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: Gonna try to run to the corner of the end zone.

14
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 1: He times in and yes, touchdown Buffalo. Josh Allen up

15
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: three yard run. Herbert gives it to Kelly Times over

16
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: the top of the pile. He is in, touchdown Los Angeles.

17
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: Herbert backed the throw, looks, cocks his arm fires on

18
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: the middle, picked off, intercepted at the Buffalo forty yard

19
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: all Right bye Tavias White. Kind of a wild finish,

20
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: almost inconsequential, but the Bills come out on top by

21
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: ten points. What an amazing game. The Bills were in

22
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: total control, their defense came up with timely plays down

23
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: in the stretch, and I think going forward, you gotta

24
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 1: feel good about this team. That was the Toshiba Game.

25
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 1: Rewind Toshiba, the official copyer company of the Buffalo Bills.

26
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: Welcome to One Bills Live. I'm Steve Tasker. Chris Brown

27
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: is going to take a day off today for personal reasons,

28
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 1: and we are pleased to be joined by our co

29
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 1: host Mattie Glab Maddie. Great game yesterday for the Buffalo Bills.

30
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: A ten point win felt like a ten point loss

31
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: for a lot of Bills fans because it did get

32
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 1: a little bit sloppy in the second half, actually in

33
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,759
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, when the Bills turned it over three

34
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: consecutive plays. But this is a game where good teams

35
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 1: win when they're not playing their best, and certainly a

36
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: lot of Bills fans know this was not the Bills

37
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 1: best game. Exactly happy to beyond today, joining in from

38
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: my home as we all are today, as the na

39
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: Fell has announced that everybody's working from home Monday and

40
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: Tuesday this week to be make sure of protocols and

41
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: to limit the spread of COVID amongst all teams, amongst

42
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,519
Speaker 1: all facilities. But yeah, this team was able to win

43
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: not playing their best football. Those turnovers at the end

44
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: of the game, I've got to admit they got me

45
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: a little bit worried there, especially having turnovers on three

46
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: straight possessions, something you don't want to see from this team.

47
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,679
Speaker 1: But like we say, at the end of the day,

48
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: it's a win in the column and it's not going

49
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: to matter in a few weeks from now when we're

50
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: looking at the record of the Bills. Right now they're

51
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 1: eight and three. We love to see that. They were

52
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: eight and three last year, so to be eight and

53
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: three two straight years, that's the first time they did

54
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: that since nineteen ninety five. So all things I think

55
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: are pointing in the right direction with this team. It

56
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: was good to see the defense have another great performance. Also,

57
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: good to see the run game get going. Good to

58
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 1: see the run defense also be so strong. This is

59
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: two things that Sean McDermott said the team did a

60
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 1: deep dive into during their bye week, so it was

61
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: awesome to see that those things came to fruition and

62
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: that our players had some rest and they got healthier.

63
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: Of course, we would have loved to see John Brown

64
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: in that game, but Gabriel Davis stepped up. We're hoping

65
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 1: that we can see Matt Milano on the field sometime

66
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 1: soon in the next couple of weeks, but nobody's really

67
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: one hundred percent healthy as we go into week twelve

68
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: and week thirteen. So glad we have the guys that

69
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: we do on this field. Glad to have you on today.

70
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: Maddie Steve Task along with Maddie glab we are radio

71
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 1: only today because, as Maddie said, the entire NFL has

72
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: closed its doors for a couple of days just to

73
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: get a little bit of a two day quarantine to

74
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: get a hand put a lid back on the COVID cases,

75
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: which is have broken out like wildfires around the league.

76
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: Bills are okay with it, so were the forty nine Ers,

77
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 1: the Bill's next opponent, although the because of the hot

78
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: spot that is Santa Clara, California, the city council has

79
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: demanded that the forty nine Ers cease operations in their

80
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: stadium and in their facilities. So don't know what the

81
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 1: forty nine is going to do for the upcoming Monday

82
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: night game against this Buffalo Bills team. But I think

83
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: I said this on the radio this morning. I was

84
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: on the radio hit as the radio analyst for the broadcast.

85
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: I do a hit with WBAN in the mornings, and

86
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: they asked me if it was going to be a

87
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: huge deal if they move the game to a different site,

88
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 1: that's not a big deal. What really would be a

89
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: big deals if they start moving it around and moving

90
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: on from a Monday night to a Sunday afternoon or

91
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 1: to a Tuesday night. If they start tinkering with the schedule,

92
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: then that throws off off the preparation for the Buffalo

93
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: Bills more than anything. But the Bills coming off a

94
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: twenty seven seventeen win over the San Diego Chargers. Steve

95
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 1: Tasker with Maddie Glab will take your calls today. If

96
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,719

Speaker 1: fifty or one eighty eight five fifty two five fifty.

100
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: We'll see if we can get you on the line.

101
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 1: I'm from my house, Maddie's from her house. Are erstwhile,

102
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: I guess that's a good word. Erstwhile producer Jay Harris

103
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: from his house with the crowd in the background, I'm

104
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 1: waiting for them to show up. But the studio audience,

105
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna be here all day taking your calls and

106
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: talking about it was quite a game, and you can

107
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: tell at the end of the game rewind we started

108
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 1: the show with. At the end of that game, I

109
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 1: was actually kind of comforted by the fact that I

110
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: really believe this Bills team. I'll just say it. I

111
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: think they're really really good to win a game like

112
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: that by ten points against a really talented roster. I'll

113
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: tell you what if if Joey Bosa didn't show up

114
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 1: for the LA Chargers yesterday, the Bills and yeah, the

115
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 1: Bills turned it over three times in the fourth quarter

116
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 1: when they were driving. The Chargers were having no answers

117
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 1: in the second half. And I'm telling you, if those

118
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: two things Bosa kept Bosa kept him in, he was

119
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,040
Speaker 1: a monster. If he's not there, the Bills are. The

120
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 1: Bills are hanging fifty points on those guys. I really

121
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,919
Speaker 1: believe that. I mean they the Bills were handling that team.

122
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: Joey Bosas almost single handedly kept the Chargers in. Were

123
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: you getting a feel for that when you were watching

124
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 1: it come across on the television broadcast the way I

125
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 1: was seeing it, Yeah, I think I made the mistake

126
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 1: of thinking that, like, Okay, it's just Bosa. You know

127
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,359
Speaker 1: that some of their defensive line is hurt and injured

128
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: and out of this game, and Ingram and Oasu, and

129
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, you know, it shouldn't be too

130
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: bad with just Joey Bosa. And then here comes Joey

131
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: Bosa shows up and has a really great game for

132
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: the charters, is able to affect Josh Allen and force

133
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: some turnovers. Steve, did you think they did a good

134
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: job of managing Bosa? Do you think they could have

135
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: done anything differently to manage him better? Well? I know

136
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: he black, Yeah, six tackles for lost, five quarterback hits,

137
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 1: he had a fumble recovery. I mean, he's all over

138
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 1: the field and he gave both tackles a little some

139
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: fits yesterday. But while he kept the Josh on his

140
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: toes and he was the reason that Josh had to

141
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: move out of the pocket and got sacked three times

142
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: and also had a bunch of hits, and also both

143
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: of the guy that tackled Josh when we all thought

144
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: he broke his leg for a minute, which was we

145
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: can talk about that's that's its own separate conversation. When

146
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: Josh went down, how fragile the season looked all of

147
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: a sudden, but he was everywhere. They did do a

148
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: better job as the game wore on, I will say that,

149
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: but man, oh man, the guy was a phenomenal force

150
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: for the Charger defense. In fact, I thought he was

151
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: the best player on the field for either team. And

152
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 1: that's with Keenan Allen and Stephan Diggs on the field

153
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: as well, I mean offense or defense. Joey Boza was

154
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: the player out there, and the Bills had their hands

155
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: full with him and without him. I think that's that

156
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: game's a laugher for the Bills. They won by ten,

157
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: the way it was, and they turned it over three

158
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: times minus two in the turnover margins, So you know

159
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: there's a couple of things there. Obviously the Bills want

160
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: to clean up. But the Bills. The reason I got

161
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: onto this, Maddie was I left that game thing. You

162
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: know what, this really really good Bills team to play

163
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 1: a team that is as talented as the Chargers walk

164
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: out with a ten point win on a day where

165
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: they stunk for the second half. You know, they you know,

166
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 1: coughed it up. You know, the defense played very well

167
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: in the second half, which is which is encouraging as well.

168
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: So I was ten point win, I was kind of

169
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: affirmed by that. But yeah, Joey Boza was a force

170
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 1: and he was the biggest problem for the Bills yesterday,

171
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:44,719
Speaker 1: aside from their own miscus and penalties and turnovers. I

172
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 1: think the ten point win and how they are able

173
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 1: were able to get this when can be looked at

174
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: as a positive and some things that you need to

175
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: go back and get to the drawing board. On the turnovers,

176
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,559
Speaker 1: the penalties. Some of those penalties were really weird penalties

177
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 1: that aren't necessarily called in every single game. I think

178
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: the penalty is kind of piled up in that way

179
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: for the Bills. But we talk about being at the

180
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: end of November heading into December. This is when this

181
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 1: team needs to start playing their best football. And I

182
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 1: think looking back to last year, I almost felt like

183
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: the Bills peaked a little bit too early last year,

184
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: and I think we're seeing this nice gradual ascent this season.

185
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: Where the defense hasn't played their best football in the

186
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: beginning of the season, we're seeing them come on strong

187
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: now in the last few weeks. We're seeing this run

188
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: game hopefully be able to do what they were they

189
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: did yesterday in the weeks to come. I think you

190
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 1: need a balanced attack offensively to have a strong performance

191
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 1: in the playoffs and be able to last just more

192
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 1: than one game. And so to see them win by

193
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,719
Speaker 1: ten when things didn't go completely right and when the

194
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 1: wheels kind of fell off there in the fourth quarter,

195
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: I think is a little bit promising Because we know

196
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,599
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott, we know this coaching staff. They're going to

197
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: try and correct those things before we get into the

198
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 1: forty nine ers, before we get into the rest of

199
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 1: the season. Because mentally, also looking at the rest of

200
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: the season, you have to have your things figured out

201
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: on the field, because we have a Monday night football game,

202
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 1: we have a Sunday night football game, a Saturday afternoon

203
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: football game, a Monday night game, and then we have

204
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 1: one more one o'clock game. So you're taking a team

205
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 1: who together is not used to playing all these night games,

206
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: all these games on different days of the week. I

207
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: think you're going to have to also be mentally strong

208
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 1: to finish out the season here with a schedule that

209
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 1: hasn't been like schedules in weeks past. Of course, COVID

210
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: has pretty much thrown off schedules a lot throughout this season.

211
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: But you're going to have to be mentally tough and

212
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 1: mentally strong to play these games at different days, in

213
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 1: different hours than they're used to. Yeah, and it's interesting

214
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: you said that about the Bills peaking too early last year,

215
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: where they kind of went into to the you know,

216
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,839
Speaker 1: these kind of lully. They lost three out of the

217
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,599
Speaker 1: last four regular season games. Now, the last one, you know,

218
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: they lost to a Jet team that beat the Bills,

219
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: you know, second strings, if you if you want to

220
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: put it that way, the Bills had no interest in

221
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: trying to play that game. They're trying to get healthy.

222
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 1: So but still, you're right, there was a kind of

223
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,839
Speaker 1: a downer headed into the playoffs, and I think that

224
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: stagnant period kind of did not serve them well in

225
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: that playoff game. But this is a team the Bills

226
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: now and I said it yesterday on the broadcast. They've

227
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: played more teams, They've had more teams on their record

228
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: with winning records than need a team in the league.

229
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: They've they've beaten five teams with winning records, and that's

230
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: big and I think that's going to serve them well

231
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 1: as they pushed down to the close here and also

232
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: this you know, John Brown is out of that game yesterday,

233
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: Cody Ford is out of that game yesterday, and Matt

234
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 1: Milano continues to be out of that game yesterday. But

235
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 1: the players that got healthy most notably for me, it

236
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: was Mitch Morris on the offense, and Levi Wallace and

237
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: Josh Norman both got back on the field. They were

238
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 1: and for whatever reason, Terren Johnson played extremely well yesterday

239
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: as well. So the back end of the defense and

240
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: the defensive front really stepped up. I think they're kind

241
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: of used to being without Milano now after he's been

242
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: out for so long and he was kind of in

243
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 1: and out and only taking ten snaps a game when

244
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: he was actually healthy for a couple of weeks or

245
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: semi healthy for a couple of weeks. They missed John Brown, no,

246
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,439
Speaker 1: no question about it. Yesterday, But their running game came through.

247
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: Their running backs were playing really well. I thought Brian

248
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: Dabo had a masterful game calling plays. And I'll tell

249
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: you what. Sean McDermott said this also in his postgame interview,

250
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:40,199
Speaker 1: Leslie Frazier was outstanding yesterday. Their game plan was great,

251
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 1: their execution was great, and their defense really drove them

252
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: in the second half to be able to win that

253
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: game by ten points. And then with Cody Ford being

254
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: out the rest of the way, that's big. John Brown

255
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: will come back in a few weeks. And while he's gone,

256
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 1: Gabriel Davis stepped up and made some places, caught the

257
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: touchdown pass. I just think there's a lot to be

258
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: happy about in this game, even though you know, we

259
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,959
Speaker 1: didn't look as solid and as polished as I wish

260
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,319
Speaker 1: we would have. So I don't know where I'm gonna go.

261
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: What do you think? You can give us a call

262
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: at eight three fifty or tweet at us at at one.

263
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: Bills Live eight to three oh five fifty or one

264
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 1: eight eight five fifty two five fifty were radio only today.

265
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: We are not in our Seneca one studios. The NFL

266
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,559
Speaker 1: has shut its doors for a couple of days. With

267
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: the exception of the Seahawks, and the Seahawks let's see,

268
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: and the Eagles who play tonight at eight fifteen, and

269
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: of course the Ravens and Steelers that game tomorrow night

270
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: at eight eight pm on Tuesday night football. Everybody else

271
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: has shut it down. Also, did you notice this, Matt

272
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 1: three games right off the top? If you killed the Bills,

273
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: it's four games and the Titans Colts game. There's a

274
00:13:56,400 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: lot more blowouts, a lot more laughers yesterday and we're

275
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: used to seeing forty one to sixteen. Washington's stumped the Cowboys,

276
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 1: the Falcons crushed the Raiders. The Bills won by ten,

277
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: the Titans won by nineteen over the Colts. Who's really

278
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 1: good football team. That's two winning teams going against it there,

279
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: and then there was one more. Oh yeah, the Dolphins

280
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: crushed the hapless kind of call him hapless Jets and

281
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 1: the Bronco right, I was that was gonna get The

282
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: Packers crushed the Bears last night as well. And the

283
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: Saints Broncos game. That is maybe the most interesting game

284
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 1: of the weekend because it wasn't you knew that the

285
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 1: Saints We're gonna get like a twenty eight point victory.

286
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: You just kind of knew it, but you still had

287
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: to watch because it was the Broncos were such a

288
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: train wreck with no quarterbacks. I mean, did you you

289
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: get these? We had this? Jeff Coltenager, her associate producer.

290
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 1: He says, you know, for all those guys out there

291
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 1: who've played high school, you know, quarterback or maybe college quarterback,

292
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: maybe thinking I'd love to give it a shot to

293
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: take a couple of snaps as an NFL player, it's

294
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 1: not easy. What a day for the Broncos that one

295
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: completed pass or something like that. It's just unbelievable. Hinton

296
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: was a quarterback. It was one for nine for thirteen

297
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: yards and two interceptions for a zero point zero rating.

298
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: You know, it's Steve the fantasy league that we're all

299
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: in together. Nobody had the Saints defense. So I picked

300
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 1: up the Saints defense yesterday in the ninth hour because

301
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: I had the Steelers defense, picked up the Saints defense,

302
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: started them, and I got like fourteen points off of them.

303
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: I think are more than that. I picked up the

304
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 1: Saints defense in both of my leagues. I can't believe

305
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: people didn't think about that before I did. I love

306
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: picking up defenses week to week, especially I mean the

307
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 1: Saints have and balling out on defense, So I'm glad

308
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: I have them on both my teams now. So I

309
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: was happy that nobody in our league thought of that beforehand,

310
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: because I'm rushing to set my line up right before

311
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: we get on our pregame show, and I'm like, there's

312
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: the Saints defense. I'm going to pick him up, and

313
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: they came. They came through for me. You are so

314
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 1: much smarter than me because I'm you know here, I'm

315
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 1: one of those fantasy owners that like, I draft my

316
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: team and you don't. You don't make anything about it, right,

317
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: I go back and check it. What's my you know,

318
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: like I got I got crushed. Craig Revet crushed me

319
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: this week. Um, and of course he's got my my

320
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: homes come pulls down fifty points last night. Yeah, I

321
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 1: mean he almost had five hundred passing yards yesterday. So

322
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: I was, yeah, I'm I'm like, everybody wants me in

323
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: their fantasy league because I'm I'm an easy But that

324
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: was a great move picking up the Saints defense. Uh.

325
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 1: They absolutely strolled and I mean strolled to a victory

326
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:06,199
Speaker 1: even you know, Uh, Taysom Hill nine for sixteen, seventy

327
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 1: eight yards and an interception. I mean he had a

328
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,200
Speaker 1: forty three point two rating and he was by far

329
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 1: the best quarterback on the field. I mean, that's that's

330
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: that's saying something about the NFL in Week twelve, twenty

331
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: twenty things people. Yeah, Kendall Hinton, he was a state

332
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: championship quarterback in high school who quarterback for the Broncos yesterday.

333
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: He played some quarterback in college. He played against an

334
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: NFL defense. It was one of nine with two picks

335
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: and you know, yeah, next time, next time, somebody on

336
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: Twitter jumps in and says, you know, how hard can

337
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,360
Speaker 1: it be? Uh point the finger at Kendall Hinton. Um,

338
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 1: that was I felt bad for He's rookie, first ever

339
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: NFL game and he's started throwing in a starting quarterback. Now,

340
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: granted it'd be fun. It's something to tell you it's

341
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 1: a lifelong stay and stay good for him. You know,

342
00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: that's something you can tell your kids, tell your face

343
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 1: family about. I was listening a little bit to his

344
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: post game availability and he said he hadn't been tackled

345
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: in a long time because this was his first game

346
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,199
Speaker 1: playing in since college. And he was like, no, what,

347
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: I'm already kind of hurting right now. I'm gonna hurt

348
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: so much tomorrow. Yeah, that's right. So that was that

349
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: was one I think the most interesting game, just because

350
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 1: you know, like we said, it was one of those

351
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 1: things you just never see that happening, and you never

352
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: see that happening. So we've got are we gonna try

353
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 1: we could Uh, we're gonna try and take a call.

354
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 1: Is that what you're motioning into the phone lines? Yeah,

355
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 1: I'm giving you the call signal. All right, here we go.

356
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna dip into the phone calls. Good Joe in Attica,

357
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 1: Joe and Attica, you're on with Steve Tasker, Maddie glab

358
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 1: on One Bill's Live. What do you got for us? Man? Hey, guys,

359
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 1: I was wondering about this Joey Bolzo, what is this

360
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: contract up? He's in his fifth year, so I think

361
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: he's probably he's already signed an extension. Damn, Buffalo needs

362
00:18:56,560 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 1: to get him, doesn't everybody though? Right? I mean wouldn't you?

363
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 1: I mean you couldn't get him out of You couldn't

364
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: get him out of La with a crowbar. Hey, money

365
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 1: talks and I think Buffalo is in a much better

366
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: leverage position to get a player like that because of

367
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 1: their record and the way that they're playing right now.

368
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 1: But the other thing that really concerns me is this

369
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 1: is two games back to back. Did those defensive backs

370
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: have blown at big time? Why do they continue to

371
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: try to catch the ball? Just knock the thing down

372
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 1: and end of the game. Yeah, And if you yeah,

373
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: I agree with you. It's it's really maddening. I mean,

374
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: this one didn't hurt him, but the other one lost

375
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: him the game. And it's you know, and here's the

376
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: problems you they all look on you know, you get

377
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: those you throw up a hail mary and this is

378
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 1: my this is my my remembrance of being involved in

379
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: one of them, and or a couple of them and

380
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 1: watching them on the sidelines. They don't happen that often,

381
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: and every one of them is different because the guys

382
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: involved are different. Even if you throw hail mary's into

383
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 1: the same two teams you're throwing too, it's always a

384
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: different group of guys that are underneath it. Maybe one

385
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: or two of them are the same, but if there's

386
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 1: five guys there, usually three of the guys are different.

387
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 1: From the one time you threw it to the next

388
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: time you threw it. Are you gonna is one guy

389
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 1: gonna be able to jump up and grab it above everybody?

390
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 1: Are you gonna have a chance to get underneath the ball?

391
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 1: Every one of them is different. And you know, I

392
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: get it. Just backed the thing to the ground. I've

393
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: seen it too. I've I was in the booth when

394
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 1: Jacksonville beat I believe it was Tennessee. They batted the

395
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 1: thing down, the guy spiked it like a volleyball. He

396
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 1: spiked it right into the stomach of the other of

397
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: the other team, and the guy walked into the end

398
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: zone for a touchdown. There's just it's so unpredictable, and

399
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: you know so I'm with you. This one didn't hurt him.

400
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 1: But there's a if. If it is normal like it

401
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: normally is, Maddie, the Bills may go three years and

402
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,719
Speaker 1: not have another Hail Mary. You know what, I hope

403
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 1: we don't see another Hail Mary this season, and if

404
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 1: we do, I hope that our defense can knock it down,

405
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,239
Speaker 1: get an interception something. I was also thinking about this

406
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: play this morning. I was like, you know, in my

407
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 1: very not expert expertise, opinion on this. Sometimes if you

408
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: have five players around a ball, it sometimes gets I

409
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 1: feel like a little tougher to make a play because

410
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: here you are in a sea of defenders, one offensive

411
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: player who's going up for the ball. They're all jumping

412
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: at different times. It's hard to time your jump at

413
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 1: the right time when that ball is coming down as

414
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: you and you're tracking the ball, you have five guys

415
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: right around you. People are probably bumping into you as

416
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,679
Speaker 1: you're trying to time your jump and get up in

417
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: the air in time to make a play on the ball.

418
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 1: It's probably a lot more difficult than it actually looks. Yeah,

419
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: it's hard because you're doing it while you're you know,

420
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,439
Speaker 1: everybody can jump, you know, by yourself and jump up

421
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: and catch a ball. When you got you're trying to

422
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 1: jump off the ground, and you got two guys leaning

423
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: on you, one from each side or one from one side,

424
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: and behind you you're kind of standing like in a

425
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: coat closet trying to jump up, and it's hard to

426
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: get off the ground. And and plus if you're trying

427
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 1: to get up there and keep somebody else from doing

428
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 1: it while you're trying to feel the ball or knock

429
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 1: it down as well. I'll say this. The thing that

430
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: surprises me more and more is that the Bills on

431
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: not only the hail mary from the Cardinals game, but

432
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 1: this one this last week, that first of all, they

433
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: rightly called offensive pass interference on you know, when Levi

434
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: Wallace got pushed from behind by and I can't remember

435
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 1: the receiver's name, but they almost missed the fact that

436
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 1: the guy dropped the ball anyway on that hail mary

437
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 1: that was completed. Secondly, that they the thing I'm getting

438
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:48,400
Speaker 1: about is nobody calls penalties on the defenders, and every

439
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: used to be back in the day there were nineteen

440
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: penalties in there. If there were five guys in there,

441
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 1: there were ten penalties, and they would never call it. Now,

442
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: I see the Bills to Davious White, Michael Hi, Jordan Poor.

443
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: They played those both those hail mary's clean as a

444
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 1: whistle and didn't put themselves in jeopardy of even getting

445
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 1: thought about getting a penalty. So you know, that's good,

446
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: except for the fact that without getting a penalty, you

447
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: run the risk of giving up the completion because you

448
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: don't get you're not physical enough. I know this. I've

449
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 1: seen other teams and other coaching staffs who say, listen,

450
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: you play it past the edge of aggression and force

451
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 1: the official to make a decision either he's gonna call

452
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 1: it or he's gonna say, now let him play, but

453
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 1: you're gonna play and force them to say I'm gonna

454
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: call it. I gotta call it, And that's their philosophy.

455
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,199
Speaker 1: And you can teeter towards that more if you're the

456
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 1: Bills in both those instances in the last couple of

457
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: weeks where you could say, you know, they could have

458
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,679
Speaker 1: been more physical with DeAndre Hopkins in Arizona. Force the

459
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 1: officials say, yeah, it's a that's a penalty or not,

460
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 1: and force him to either do that or keep it,

461
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: keep the flag in his pocket. But that's what a

462
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,719
Speaker 1: lot of philosophy, teams philosophy is force him to make

463
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,880
Speaker 1: a call that guy's not making the play, and if

464
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: it takes a penalty to do it, commit the penalty

465
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 1: and force the official to get involved at the end

466
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: of a game kind of scenario. And I don't and yeah,

467
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, we saw that in the game.

468
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: It wasn't necessarily a hail Mary into the end zone,

469
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: but it was a deep pass to like the two

470
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 1: yard line. I want to say where Levi Wallace was

471
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: on Geydon and Guyan got called for offensive pass interference

472
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: because he pushed off on Levi Wallace and the leave

473
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: I defended that well, and the flag was thrown like

474
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,880
Speaker 1: maybe two or three seconds later, so I was looking

475
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 1: at it like, oh my gosh, Levi and then here

476
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: comes the flag and you were able to see, of

477
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: course on the replay that Gaydon completely pushed off Levi

478
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: Wallace and Levi was as as aggressive as he could

479
00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 1: have been without getting called for DPI. Yeah, he was.

480
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: At least he was turned around playing the ball and

481
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: would have had a chance that he wouldn't got a

482
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: two hand shove in the back. And thanks for the call,

483
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 1: appreciate it. And if you want to get to jump

484
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: in on your candidate or three oh five fifty, he

485
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: asked the caller. Joe asked about the Joey Bosa contract

486
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 1: if he was available. He just signed in July a

487
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 1: record seventy eight million dollars fully guaranteed at signing one

488
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 1: hundred and two million dollar contract. Seventy eight million of

489
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: it was guaranteed. That was in July was a new

490
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: NFL record at that time for his position. Joey Boza

491
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: just signed an extension with the Chargers in July, so

492
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: all of that's uh, you know, that's yeah, he's not available.

493
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: You talked about a guy that I think about this,

494
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 1: is there a guy who's played well enough? Again, and

495
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 1: certainly you can go back and quarterbacks like Russell Wilson

496
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,199
Speaker 1: and these guys or whoever has had a game, and

497
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 1: maybe Derrick Henry would fall into this category. What other

498
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: player have the Bills faced this year? Did you say, man,

499
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,959
Speaker 1: oh man, would I love to have that guy? You know,

500
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:13,199
Speaker 1: aside from Donald Yeah, right, Joey Bosawn. Yeah, there's been

501
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: some guys, right, They've got some. There's been some players

502
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 1: that have played against the Bills that have really given

503
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 1: them problems. And of course Mahomes or Tyreek Hill or uh,

504
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 1: you know Mark and Mikole Hardman for the Chiefs, some

505
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 1: one of those guys. But you know, the Bills have

506
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 1: had some. But I don't know, there's there's not that many.

507
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 1: If you take the quarterbacks out of it, and you

508
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: can stock up on like four of the best quarterbacks

509
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: in the league, you get Russell Wilson on your on

510
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: your squad along with Pat Mahomes and Josh Allen and

511
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry and Joey Bosa and Aaron Donald. Yeah, okay,

512
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,879
Speaker 1: I'll take that. But it's been there's been maybe just

513
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 1: a handful of guys like that like that had the

514
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: kind of day Joey Bosa did yesterday. That was amazing,

515
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: It was incredible. Hopefully that doesn't happen as much against

516
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 1: us going forward, right. Steve Tasker, along with Maddy Glave,

517
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 1: I was reminded by Jay Harris, I was in the

518
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 1: Jags Texans Hail Mary that I called. Gus Johnson was

519
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 1: the play by play. I was standing next to Gus

520
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,919
Speaker 1: when he called that spike on that hail Mary right

521
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 1: into that right into Taylor's right into Taylor's stomach, and

522
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 1: he walked. Mike Taylor walked right into the end zone

523
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:24,719
Speaker 1: for the Jaguars and won it. Unbelievable play. It happens

524
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 1: once in a while, but not very often. Steve Tasker,

525
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:28,960

Speaker 1: go right to the phones and let you guys get

550
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: involved in this. I know Bills fans got a lot

551
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 1: to say after a Bill's win, particularly one of the

552
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 1: nature we saw yesterday. So let's go to Jeff Intop. Jeff,

553
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 1: you're on with Stephen Maddie. What's on your mind? Hey, Steve,

554
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 1: I was just wandering what these sportsmanlike conduct penalties, I mean,

555
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 1: the one with Josh, yeah, you know, with that other

556
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 1: one were to go. I mean, the Bills could have been,

557
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: you know, like a two minute drill type thing, and

558
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: you know, and a guy throw the ball, you don't know,

559
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 1: always throwing it at you know what I mean. Yeah,

560
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: I thought I thought the Zach Moss penalty was a

561
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: little bit manufactured. And I thought there was an on

562
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: the broadcast. And first of all, I'm gonna call Murph

563
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: and apologize for my conduct on the broadcast US. And

564
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: I was busting in on. I was going, I had

565
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: too much caffeine yesterday for that game. I was talking

566
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: over the top of Murf and everything. But Jeff, I

567
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 1: think you're right. I thought that Zach Moss penalty was

568
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 1: a little bit manufactured, and I thought there was a

569
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: couple of them that they missed. In fact, even the

570
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 1: offensive pass interference on Levi Wallace that we were talking

571
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,239
Speaker 1: about in the last episode, the officials missed at the

572
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 1: past he caught the ball and guy went down, but

573
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 1: the ball popped out and hit the ground. It wouldn't

574
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 1: have been it shouldn't. I have been a reception anyway. Now,

575
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: I didn't count, but it'd be interesting to see. You know,

576
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 1: they gave her. They're going to give the guy first

577
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 1: in goal on the one, but man, oh man, you

578
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: know they missed that. I thought there was a couple

579
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 1: of times and I can't remember some of the instances

580
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 1: now where I thought they were absolutely atrocious or run

581
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: by Devin Singletary they robbed him of seven more yards,

582
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: calling him down by contacting oh yeah, whistle, I mean, yeah,

583
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 1: he terrible. I thought a couple of times, wells, Jeff,

584
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 1: all right, thank you, you bet, Jeff. Thanks for Colin.

585
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. And uh yeah, I don't know, Maddie,

586
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: did you. I do it all the time, So I'm like,

587
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 1: I'm the worst person in the world to think to

588
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 1: have any credibility about officials, because I'll they're all you know,

589
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,239
Speaker 1: even if they're doing a good job, I'm not appreciating them.

590
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,640
Speaker 1: But what about you, what do you think about it? Well?

591
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 1: Eric Wood brought up this point in Bill's Tonight last

592
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 1: night when I asked him about the penalties and the

593
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 1: turnovers and how they can improve off of this and

594
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 1: use it as a learning experience, and he was like,

595
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 1: you know what, some of these penalties were just weird penalties.

596
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: Some of them might have maybe should not have been called,

597
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: but they were. And I think those few question mark

598
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 1: penalties that got called, you don't see that many of

599
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 1: those called in one game, So you can just chalk

600
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: it up to kind of a different weird game that

601
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: was called by the officials in certain ways. Of course,

602
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 1: they're doing their job and they're doing it to the

603
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 1: rest of their abilities. Sometimes they missed things. Some calls

604
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 1: leave us thinking if they were the right call or

605
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 1: the wrong call at the end of the day. But

606
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: I think that what they had nine penalties that the

607
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: Bills did, yeah, nine penalties for eighty five yards. The

608
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: Chargers had five penalties for ninety one yards. You don't

609
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 1: want to have nine penalties, regardless of how they're called

610
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 1: and regardless of how weird they were. So I think

611
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 1: it's something you definitely need to get corrected. But yeah,

612
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 1: some of those unsportsmen like conduct called I mean, let

613
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 1: Josh celebrate, come on, Yeah, I didn't have a problem

614
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: with that. Well, actually, Josh's probably wasn't good. That was

615
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 1: I didn't have a problem with either. But Josh's penalty

616
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 1: was a penalty. Zack Moss's penalty probably was not. And

617
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: that's that's the way it goes. And we're probably chuckling

618
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 1: at the Josh Allen penalty and mad about that. Yeah,

619
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: about the Zack Moss penalty. Just go takes take one more?

620
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: Called Dave in Buffalo, you're on with Steve Taskermatic lab

621
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: on one Bill's Life. What do you got for us, Dave, Dave, Dave, Yeah,

622
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: a chance, go ahead. Hey stee, Hey a great boy

623
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 1: for making the final and uh, all of fame appreciate it. Hey,

624
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: you've touched on that incomplete pass or not the incomplete

625
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 1: pass the second to last play where yeah, you know

626
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: they got called for offensive pass things. Now that ball

627
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,479
Speaker 1: was ugle that it wasn't a catch. Now had they

628
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 1: called it. The game would have been over because that

629
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 1: was a fourth and eighteen. It would have been an

630
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: incomplete pass. We could have declined the penalty. And that's

631
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: right clock at that point. Isn't that what should have

632
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: played out there? Yes, it is, and it got all

633
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: it got lost in the wash. But here's the problem.

634
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 1: It was inside two minutes. Sean McDermott can't say anything

635
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 1: about it, and it has to come from New York,

636
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: and New York was asleep at the switch. Yeah, all right,

637
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 1: because I'm thinking maybe the coach should have called a

638
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 1: time out there, maybe had them look at you know,

639
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: I knew he couldn't throw the flight, you know, the

640
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 1: red red challenge on that, but that's what I thought.

641
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: They missed that one, right, games should have been over,

642
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: Yeah they did. Yeah, that should have been an incomplete pass.

643
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: And a lot of people said, I have not looked

644
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 1: at it again, but I've I've heard a lot of

645
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 1: people talk about it so much so that I'm starting

646
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 1: to believe what they're seeing because you know, we've you know,

647
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 1: we've seen a gazillion catches in the NFL, and with

648
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 1: the catch rule and how it was, it's all been

649
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: muddled for a few years, and now everybody's kind of

650
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: got a good handle on it, and a lot of

651
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 1: people have said that should not have been a catch

652
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 1: and taken to them at their word. You're right, that

653
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 1: game should have been over right there, whether he whether

654
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 1: they got called for the penalty or not. And that

655
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 1: was that's a huge thing. I mean, think about this,

656
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 1: and it's not for nothing. I'm not going to conjure

657
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 1: this up because you can easily see it. Maddie, what

658
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: happens if on the hail Mary that the Chargers complete

659
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 1: on the next play, what happened to joke? You know,

660
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,839
Speaker 1: justin Herbert's rolling around trying to buy a little more

661
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,440
Speaker 1: time so we can get a little bit better angle,

662
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,920
Speaker 1: and he twists his angle or gets hit or Ed

663
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 1: Oliver takes him down and Justin Herbert breaks his tib

664
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 1: fib you know as tibula fibula or something. You know,

665
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 1: stuff like that happens, you know, and it's if the

666
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: game should have been over, It should have been over.

667
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 1: And and you know, you talk about players safety and

668
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 1: all of that, that's one of the things. And that's

669
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 1: that's the worst case scenario obviously, or and the second

670
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,240
Speaker 1: worst case scenarios if they end up throwing the touchdown

671
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: and they end up somehow winning the game. But i'm

672
00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: I'm I'm all about you know, that's another point where

673
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 1: the officials absolutely blew it, where the games should have

674
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 1: been over and they didn't even realize it. Yeah, I

675
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:15,360
Speaker 1: think back to us not having those mini camps, training camp.

676
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: You didn't see any officials at our officials still trying

677
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,840
Speaker 1: to figure things out in week twelve, you would hope not.

678
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:25,799
Speaker 1: But I think this pandemic and everything getting pushed back

679
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,480
Speaker 1: and canceled has had a lot of effects to this league.

680
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,400
Speaker 1: I think the Bill's defense is one of those things

681
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 1: as well, and the officials is probably another thing, as

682
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: Bill's defense has really started playing to the caliber that

683
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: we know them to play at as of the last

684
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 1: few weeks, and they've said multiple times, you know, it

685
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,239
Speaker 1: took us a little bit longer because we didn't have

686
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: a preseason. We didn't have games to tackle guys. Well,

687
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 1: guess who else didn't have a preseason? The officials. Hopefully

688
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 1: these things get figured out before the playoffs hit in

689
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 1: five weeks. Right, Yeah, that's yeah, And you said it

690
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,399
Speaker 1: earlier and you're i hadn't thought about it, but you're

691
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: right on. They're getting better, are the Bills? Now? Certainly

692
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: they stumbled it yesterday, but it is a stumble because

693
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:14,399
Speaker 1: we noticed last year this was a game where, hey,

694
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: the Bills scored twenty seven points. It's awesome. You know,

695
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 1: they would have been we'd have been, you know, doing

696
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 1: cartwheels over a game like this last year, and this

697
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 1: year the bar has been raised to that point. I

698
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 1: think they're getting better, and I think that's why, you know,

699
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 1: you want a crescendo at the end of the regular

700
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 1: season and get into the playoffs with a little bit

701
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: of momentum. We're gonna take another call of Dan and

702
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,439
Speaker 1: Saint Catharine's up. Just before we do, we're gonna also,

703
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 1: I want to tell you we're gonna have Eric Wood

704
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 1: on at one pm today and he's coming on in

705
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,839
Speaker 1: just at the top of the hour. He'll come on.

706
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: We'll get his opinions and his thoughts on what happened

707
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,280
Speaker 1: yesterday with the bills twenty seven seventeen win over the Chargers.

708
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 1: All right, let's go one last call before we take

709
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 1: a break. Here, Dan in Saint Catharine's Dan, what's on

710
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 1: your mind today. Hey guys, how are you doing great?

711
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,959
Speaker 1: Two points? Number one, I'm a huge, huge Bills fat

712
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 1: and every Sunday to find a way to just get

713
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 1: me mad. I mean, can we not push away when

714
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: we have a nice, comfortable lead. And then the second

715
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 1: point is Matt Patricia just got fired from Detroit. Now

716
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 1: look what he did in New England defensively, wouldn't he

717
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:26,800
Speaker 1: be good to bring him in? Yeah? It may be

718
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 1: the only time I've ever heard of that happening. Is

719
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 1: when Hugh Hugh what was his name, the coach from Cleveland,

720
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 1: Hugh Edward. You Hugh Jackson, Hugh Jackson, that's right, the

721
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 1: head coach of Cleveland. When he got fired by Cleveland,

722
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,719
Speaker 1: he went to I think it was a Pittsburgh or

723
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 1: was it Cincinnati? It was Cincinnati. He went to Cincinnati

724
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 1: and helped Marvin Lewis, who was a longtime mentor friend

725
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,840
Speaker 1: of his. During the regular season, a division team brought

726
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 1: him on as a consultant, and that's when Baker Mayfield

727
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 1: kind of lost it and went off on Hugh Jackson said, yeah,

728
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,880
Speaker 1: I don't want any part of you. And that was,

729
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 1: you know, a subsequent game those two teams met so yeah,

730
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,760
Speaker 1: it's not out of the realm of possibility. I would

731
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:17,400
Speaker 1: be surprised if Matt Patricia doesn't end up back in

732
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 1: New England either at the end of this season or

733
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,320
Speaker 1: in the offseason this coming year, unless he decides, unless

734
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 1: somebody else offers him a pretty good job. Certainly, he's

735
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 1: still going to get paid by the Detroit Lion, so

736
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 1: he doesn't have to do anything if he doesn't want to.

737
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:33,920
Speaker 1: But Matt Patricia, you're right, it's a it's an interesting

738
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 1: thought to bring a guy like Matt Patrician to help

739
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: you stave off a late run by the Patriots in

740
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,320
Speaker 1: the division. Matt, what do you think about hiring another

741
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 1: a guy that got fired his head coach, if you

742
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: can get him to take the job. Yeah, I mean,

743
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,359
Speaker 1: I think if you can get him to take a job,

744
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 1: I think you probably look at teams more that are

745
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 1: struggling defensively, rather than a team like the Bills who

746
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 1: seems like they're on the right foot and heading in

747
00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 1: the right direction with their defense continuing to get wronger

748
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: and stronger game by game. But I think it would

749
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,080
Speaker 1: have to be the right scenario, would probably have to

750
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 1: be somewhere that person is familiar with and maybe has

751
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 1: been before to be able to be accepted and come

752
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 1: back into a role a different role. Hugh Jackson when

753
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 1: he came back to or when he went to the Bengals,

754
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,560
Speaker 1: he was an assistant to the head coach. And so

755
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 1: sometimes when you do that, it's hard to find a

756
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:26,800
Speaker 1: specific role, whether you're fitting them in on the defensive

757
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 1: side or on the offensive side. But we'll see what

758
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 1: happens with Matt Patricia. I don't think he's done and

759
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 1: over within the NFL. It'll be interesting to see where

760
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 1: he winds up next. And I think we've got Steve

761
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,360
Speaker 1: who is frozen on our skype. But we're going to

762
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 1: take a break and when we come back, we hope

763
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 1: that Steve Tasker is with us again. You're listening to

764
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 1: a one Bills Live on Monday, A victory Monday. We'll

765
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: get into more talk about this Bill's Chargers game when

766
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 1: we come back. Jas gonna throw it behind them, the

767
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 1: Beas gonna throw it again to a man might open

768
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:20,240
Speaker 1: Gabriel Davis touchdown, touchdown Buffalo Cool Beasley the Gabriel Davis.

769
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 1: How about that? That was the Hunt red zone play

770
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:27,840
Speaker 1: of the game. Visit hunt real estate dot Com to

771
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: score on all your real estate needs. That was ununbelievable.

772
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 1: The Bills have had a really nice run of that stuff, right.

773
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 1: I mean, you had the Devin Singletary. Was a Devin

774
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 1: Singletary throw last year to Josh on the throwback in Dallas?

775
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:45,399
Speaker 1: Was it Dallas? Or? And then there was another one too.

776
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 1: We've had a couple of what were they Maddie Brown

777
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,880
Speaker 1: jo to Josh Allen last year? Did you do it

778
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: twice last year? And then Isaam Mackenzie this year too

779
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 1: and Cool Beasley. I love it. It's been very successful

780
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,439
Speaker 1: when they've done it. I love watching day Ball pull

781
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,399
Speaker 1: tricks out of his hat as an offensive coordinator. It's

782
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,720
Speaker 1: so fun to see that early in the game too.

783
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 1: I mean, to get on the board early like they

784
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: did yesterday, and to continue to score, to run up

785
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: the score to twenty seven points they were up twenty

786
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 1: four to six was the highest that they were up

787
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 1: in this game. And yeah, I love the way that

788
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: day Balls has been creative this season and I'm excited

789
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 1: for what's to come. He's picked his spots, There's no

790
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 1: question about that. He's called those things at the exact

791
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 1: right moment they worked. It's been great. Hey, you can

792
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,279
Speaker 1: give us a call at eight to three h five

793
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,359
Speaker 1: fifty or tweet at us at at one Bills Live.

794
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 1: We've got what was your biggest takeaway from the Bills

795
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,800
Speaker 1: win over the Chargers From the tweet sheet. The tweet

796
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:48,720
Speaker 1: sheet brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official

797
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,319
Speaker 1: equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills. From Tiffany, She'll

798
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,320
Speaker 1: start us out, and she says, Tyler Bass is developing

799
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,320
Speaker 1: into a reliable kicker. His big leg may have to

800
00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: kick a clutch field goal and bad weather playoff game.

801
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 1: AJ Klein is becoming our top linebacker. And finally NFL

802
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: officials need to be held accountable for obvious bad calls.

803
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 1: Eight and three feels really good. There's a lot there.

804
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 1: From Tiffany. I think you know Tyler Bass. Yeah, I

805
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 1: gotta say I'm feeling better and better about him, and

806
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 1: I think he after some early season adjustments, he has

807
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:25,440
Speaker 1: really started to be extremely steady. That last kick he

808
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 1: hit was a big one, so like a forty three

809
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 1: yard or so. It wasn't massively long, but it was

810
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 1: a right down the pipe and he didn't hesitate. I'm

811
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 1: liking where he's at right now. What about you? Yeah,

812
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 1: I really like where he's at. I believed in him

813
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,800
Speaker 1: all along. I mean, this kid is a rookie kicker.

814
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:45,399
Speaker 1: I think we're so quick to call out rookies who

815
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 1: play a lot, who maybe don't play the best in

816
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,319
Speaker 1: the first couple of games or make some mistakes, and

817
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 1: then we write them off. We're like, oh, this player

818
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 1: is terrible. Why did we draft him? Came them the

819
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 1: chances their first year in the NFL. This kid is

820
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 1: kicking and probably one of the hardest places to kick

821
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: in the country. With the win that you get in

822
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 1: Bill's Stadium, I think he's been able to do a

823
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,240
Speaker 1: great job. He's already etched his name into record books

824
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 1: as a rookie. He's been able to be very reliable

825
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,040
Speaker 1: for the Bills as of late. Yeah, I agree with you.

826
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,480
Speaker 1: I'm getting more and more comfortable with him. I think

827
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 1: also he farwell is using him extremely well in kickoff scenarios.

828
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,400
Speaker 1: They've got him kicking the ball high in the air

829
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,680
Speaker 1: with a lot of hang time, and he's putting it

830
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 1: in a spot where their opponents feel like they have

831
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,360
Speaker 1: to bring it out. Cardinals brought one out from a

832
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:37,360
Speaker 1: couple of yards deep. Yesterday, the Bills got him on

833
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 1: the twelve and that was late late in the game

834
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,279
Speaker 1: to start their final drive. It's a great job by

835
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,760
Speaker 1: the Bills special teams yesterday. Andre Roberts is still playing

836
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:49,440
Speaker 1: extremely well as well. But Tyler Bass, both in his

837
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 1: kickoffs and in his field goals, I think he's been

838
00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 1: a real force. Also from the tweet sheet from Chris,

839
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 1: He'll say this his biggest takeaway from the Bills went

840
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 1: over the Chargers. I was happy to see the run

841
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,719
Speaker 1: game get going. Defense is looking like they finally got

842
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 1: it together. Glad Josh Allen didn't get seriously hurt on

843
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: that one play. The guy's tough as nails. It was

844
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 1: a rugged game. But a win is a win. I'll

845
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 1: take it. Go Bills. A lot of people kind of

846
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:16,040
Speaker 1: have that mentality, Maddie. It was not pretty in the

847
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 1: second half, particularly three. And the thing they did it

848
00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:21,680
Speaker 1: was the three consecutive turnovers. That's what did That's what

849
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: really was the squasher of the day. A fumbled by Singletary,

850
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,680
Speaker 1: a fumble by Moss and then Josh Allen throwing the

851
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:33,920
Speaker 1: pick man. That was a That was a that was

852
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:38,279
Speaker 1: a bummer. That was a buzz kill. That was right. Yeah,

853
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 1: made made everybody and I think the players to feel

854
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:45,360
Speaker 1: a lot worse about the lost in general or about

855
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,759
Speaker 1: the win in general, making it almost seem like a

856
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 1: loss in some ways. That that fourth quarter, the way

857
00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 1: that they played, those turnovers that you don't want to see,

858
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 1: that just kind of looked like a lack of effort

859
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,960
Speaker 1: in some ways. You don't want to see that for

860
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 1: a team to close out the games. And we've heard

861
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 1: this a lot for fans from media members. The questions

862
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,839
Speaker 1: are coming of why can't you close out a game?

863
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:14,000
Speaker 1: Why are we in these close situations late in the game?

864
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 1: It's week twelve, Why is this a problem? And yeah,

865
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 1: they have been in some close games in the fourth

866
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 1: quarter and the game is on the line. It's a

867
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 1: stressful situation. It's a tough situation. But one thing remains

868
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 1: true is that Josh Allen is able to steal the

869
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:33,840
Speaker 1: deal a lot of the time in the fourth quarter,

870
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: which makes me happy that he's on our side. But yeah,

871
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 1: it's something that needs to get corrected as we move

872
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 1: forward here in the season. I think if you have

873
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 1: three turnovers like that in the fourth quarter and your

874
00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: minus two and turnover differential in the playoffs, those are

875
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 1: games that you might lose. You can't put yourself in

876
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:55,680
Speaker 1: a situation in a scenario like that with time on

877
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 1: the clock. They kicked that field goal. It was twenty

878
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:02,160
Speaker 1: four to seventeen with ten minutes left in the fourth quarter.

879
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: There's there's still a lot of time on the clock

880
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,719
Speaker 1: for things to happen there. You don't want to be

881
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:11,399
Speaker 1: in sticky situations like that as we move forward, as

882
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 1: the season winds down and as we get into the playoffs.

883
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 1: I mean that Texans game was so close and it

884
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 1: came down to the last couple of plays, the last

885
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 1: couple of minutes. I do not want to see this

886
00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:26,879
Speaker 1: team be in that same situation as we head into

887
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:30,799
Speaker 1: our first playoff game. They're more mature, they're better than that,

888
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 1: and they need to get this fixed as the season,

889
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,840
Speaker 1: you know, closes out here, because this team is better

890
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 1: than being in close situations at the end of the game.

891
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 1: Not a bad time, not a bad way to go

892
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:44,560
Speaker 1: into the late in the season where you know you've

893
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,799
Speaker 1: you're a good, really good football team, and you've got

894
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 1: your best football ahead of you and your own worst enemy,

895
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 1: particularly in the game like yesterday's yourself and it's it's

896
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 1: the corrections you can make during the week. We'll see

897
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 1: it's going to be interesting to see Steve Tasker, Maddie

898
00:46:57,480 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: glab Eric Wood coming up right after the break. This

899
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:02,879
Speaker 1: is Bill's Life, presented by Kalidah Health. I'm Buffalo Bills Radio.

900
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 1: Welcome back to one of Bill's Lives. Steve task along

901
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:20,520
Speaker 1: with Maddi Glab here radio only today. We are not

902
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:23,960
Speaker 1: in our Seneca one studios due to the shutdown of

903
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 1: the National Football League, just giving everybody a couple of

904
00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:31,000
Speaker 1: days off, making sure that they're following all the all

905
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:33,040
Speaker 1: the protocols, and we're pleased to be joined now by

906
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 1: Maddie's co host of Bills Tonight, Eric Wood, former center

907
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:39,520
Speaker 1: of the Buffalo Bills two thousand nine to twenty seventeen.

908
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:44,919
Speaker 1: He's usually the radio analyst because of COVID. I'm doing it, Eric,

909
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 1: Thanks for coming on. It's good talking to you man.

910
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:49,919
Speaker 1: What'd you think of the game yesterday? Yeah, I thought

911
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 1: you did an awesome job. Again, I'm worried about them

912
00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:54,919
Speaker 1: ever wanting to bring me back. I thought you were precised,

913
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 1: and I thought I thought Murf was really good. Murf

914
00:47:57,920 --> 00:47:59,799
Speaker 1: cracks me up, though sometimes I don't know if it's

915
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:03,160
Speaker 1: for effect or not, but he'll say the ball is dropped,

916
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 1: and I'm listening to you guys, but I'm also watching

917
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:08,480
Speaker 1: it on TV, and I know it's caught, and so

918
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:10,759
Speaker 1: I think Burf does that to build it up, which

919
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:14,879
Speaker 1: is hilarious to me. But I'm just getting I thought,

920
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,759
Speaker 1: you guys had a great call. But but the game

921
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:20,760
Speaker 1: in general, it almost felt like a twenty nineteen Bills

922
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:23,839
Speaker 1: win to me. The defense played really well, they ran

923
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:28,480
Speaker 1: the football well. Josh was efficient but not spectacular. He

924
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:33,800
Speaker 1: made one bad interception throw, no other real throws of risk.

925
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,040
Speaker 1: You know he's gotten away with some of these some

926
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 1: games in the statu sheet says two touchdowns, one on

927
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:42,640
Speaker 1: the ground, one one through the air, and no interceptions.

928
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:45,280
Speaker 1: He didn't get away with any. Yesterday had one really

929
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 1: bad throw and it got picked. But it was great

930
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 1: to see the run game take off the way it did.

931
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,040
Speaker 1: I thought there's been two games this year, this one

932
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 1: in New England when they had to rely on the

933
00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 1: run game. The first one was because of weather in

934
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,040
Speaker 1: New England or in Buffalo. But against New England, the

935
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:02,960
Speaker 1: wind dictated that they had to keep the ball on

936
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:07,840
Speaker 1: the ground. This time yesterday against the Chargers, it really

937
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 1: was the pass rush that was dictating that they needed

938
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 1: to run the football for a couple of reasons. One,

939
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 1: the defensive ends were flying up the field, and when

940
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:17,359
Speaker 1: you passed the ball at the percentage that the Bills

941
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,720
Speaker 1: usually do, that'll happen. And then two, when you couldn't

942
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:25,600
Speaker 1: protect them, it allowed it forced them to rely more

943
00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:28,839
Speaker 1: on the run game. Yeah, and while we're talking here,

944
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 1: we just came back from break and while we were

945
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,520
Speaker 1: at the breaks, came out over the wire that the

946
00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 1: that the field Yates has reported this. It's official that

947
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,799
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers have, in the conjunction with the

948
00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:43,319
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals and the National Football League, are going

949
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,319
Speaker 1: to play their Week thirteen and their Week fourteen home

950
00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 1: games at the Cardinals Stadium in the Desert out in Phoenix, Scottsdale.

951
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:54,640
Speaker 1: So the Bills are headed back to the desert where

952
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:57,319
Speaker 1: they were at three weeks ago just to for the

953
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,200
Speaker 1: Hail Mary, Hail Mary loss to the Cardinals are gonna

954
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:03,080
Speaker 1: take on the forty nine Ers in that same stadium.

955
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:06,000
Speaker 1: I actually, Eric, you can speak to this. I think

956
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 1: that's probably a pretty good thing. Certainly, you know, the

957
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:11,799
Speaker 1: loss is a bummer, but going back, going in now,

958
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 1: it's it's almost gonna seem like routine of a road trip.

959
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 1: It's probably the same hotel, same set up, same locker room,

960
00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 1: a different team of course that they're gonna play. But

961
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:22,239
Speaker 1: I think the key thing is that the schedule is

962
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,840
Speaker 1: gonna stay intact. They're gonna keep the game in the

963
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 1: same on the same night, in the same time slot.

964
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 1: The Bills don't have to like now they're gonna play

965
00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:30,480
Speaker 1: on Tuesday. Oh no, it's gonna be Sunday afternoon. O,

966
00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:32,960
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Thursday. But you know, like they did

967
00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:36,200
Speaker 1: with the Tennessee Titan game, this is not a bad

968
00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:39,400
Speaker 1: deal for the Bills going back to Arizona. It's not

969
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,120
Speaker 1: at all. And I think you bring up a number

970
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,840
Speaker 1: of good points. First off, credit to the league. Credit

971
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 1: to the forty nine ers for pivoting so fast and

972
00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:49,840
Speaker 1: not letting this linger throughout the week to put the

973
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:52,279
Speaker 1: Bills in such a state of flux that they've lived

974
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,480
Speaker 1: in through the Tennessee saga. And I know that was

975
00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 1: a different dynamic, but great job by the NFL. They're

976
00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:01,319
Speaker 1: easy to poke fun at. Nowadays, when you see the

977
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:04,800
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos play with no quarterback yesterday, but then earlier

978
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,279
Speaker 1: in the season, other teams, you know they have a

979
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 1: few guys out and they shifted their games. They're easy

980
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,319
Speaker 1: to poke fun of right now. But good job by

981
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:13,799
Speaker 1: them pivoting so fast to keep this thing moving, because

982
00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:17,640
Speaker 1: these are two healthy teams at this point. Your point

983
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:20,960
Speaker 1: about it being business as usual that this goes for

984
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:23,400
Speaker 1: a number of a couple of different reasons. One, you're

985
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 1: you're you're going to travel west anyways, This actually maybe

986
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,359
Speaker 1: becomes a little bit shorter. I don't know, you go

987
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:30,680
Speaker 1: a little bit further south, but you're not going quite

988
00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 1: as far west, but you're warmer. Yeah, you were going

989
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:37,640
Speaker 1: to travel west anyways. Well, by doing this, you now

990
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:39,600
Speaker 1: know what your footing is going to be like. You

991
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 1: know your site lines in the stadium. These are stadiums

992
00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:45,920
Speaker 1: that you only play in once every seven or eight years, generally,

993
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 1: these NFC stadiums. So now you get two in a

994
00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 1: row and you know what exactly to expect in that environment.

995
00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,040
Speaker 1: That's a good point. Also, I've also got to say,

996
00:51:56,520 --> 00:51:59,839
Speaker 1: Santa Clara at this time of the year. A night game,

997
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:03,320
Speaker 1: it could be cold. It could be almost as cold

998
00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 1: as Buffalo, not as cold. But I worked for Stanford

999
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:08,640
Speaker 1: for a year. We played at the forty nine Ers

1000
00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 1: Stadium for our bowl game, in the Foster Farms Bowl Game.

1001
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 1: It was early December and I it was thirty degrees

1002
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:19,920
Speaker 1: with the wind chill there. It was freezing cold, And

1003
00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:22,160
Speaker 1: I was like, I thought I moved to California because

1004
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,000
Speaker 1: it was it was going to be warmer here. But

1005
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 1: here we are in northern California and it's freezing. So

1006
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:29,200
Speaker 1: it's nice that it'll be warmer for that game. But Eric,

1007
00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:31,919
Speaker 1: I want to ask you another question about the run game.

1008
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:36,320
Speaker 1: They've ran the ball twice a lot. One was because

1009
00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:39,800
Speaker 1: of the weather, the other one yesterday, it was because

1010
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:42,520
Speaker 1: of the pass rush. How much does this team need

1011
00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 1: to start committing to the run to have one more

1012
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,640
Speaker 1: balanced attack heading into the playoffs. Is this something that

1013
00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:49,680
Speaker 1: you worry about it all? Or do you think that

1014
00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:52,680
Speaker 1: the Bills need to go into a game and maybe

1015
00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,120
Speaker 1: not run the ball because they have to run the ball,

1016
00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,520
Speaker 1: but run the ball because they're choosing to run the ball.

1017
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 1: That's a great, Maddie, you know, I think that this

1018
00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:05,040
Speaker 1: Bills twenty twenty team, especially if John Brown's healthy, which

1019
00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:07,359
Speaker 1: he's gonna be out these next couple of weeks. If

1020
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 1: John Brown's in there, I think your skill set dictates

1021
00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:12,399
Speaker 1: that you're going to be in a lot of ten

1022
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,040
Speaker 1: and eleven personnel. You know you're that's going to be

1023
00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:17,960
Speaker 1: your best group of players that you get on the field.

1024
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,919
Speaker 1: That would dictate a little bit more pass heavy. It's

1025
00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 1: hard to get in under center formations which the Bills

1026
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 1: have run the ball extremely well out of. In a

1027
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:29,319
Speaker 1: ten personnel set. It can be done, but you're not

1028
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:33,040
Speaker 1: protecting your edges. It's just not as common in the NFL.

1029
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:38,480
Speaker 1: So to me, when John Brown's healthy, yes, I think

1030
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 1: they should stick to the past as much as they

1031
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:43,480
Speaker 1: can as these games get cold in Orchard Park. I'm

1032
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 1: not extremely worried about the games where with them not

1033
00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:50,160
Speaker 1: being able to throw the ball. It's the wind which

1034
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 1: can come at anytime. We had our one Bills or

1035
00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:56,520
Speaker 1: we had our postgame Maddie where I could hear the

1036
00:53:56,560 --> 00:54:00,719
Speaker 1: wind shaking the building while we were trying to do

1037
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:03,279
Speaker 1: our post game. That can happen at any point in

1038
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:05,879
Speaker 1: Orchard Park. So yes, you need to have the run game.

1039
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:08,000
Speaker 1: I think they've proven to themselves. I think they ran

1040
00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 1: the ball enough last year as well, with mainly the

1041
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 1: same cast and crew that they could always kind of

1042
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:17,719
Speaker 1: go back to that, and they've proven they can do it.

1043
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:20,000
Speaker 1: But you know, heading out to the desert for this

1044
00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:23,400
Speaker 1: Monday night matchup, I expect the Bills to get back

1045
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:25,960
Speaker 1: to throwing the ball at such a high percentage. But

1046
00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:27,840
Speaker 1: the fact that they've shown that they can run the

1047
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:29,640
Speaker 1: ball so well under center, and this is something I

1048
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:31,919
Speaker 1: would kept looking for yesterday and I think we'll see

1049
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,439
Speaker 1: more of it, is getting under center and running hard

1050
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:38,319
Speaker 1: play action, taking more shots down the field because they've

1051
00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:41,719
Speaker 1: established the run game from under center. You're with Steve

1052
00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:43,719
Speaker 1: Tasker Maddie Glab on One Bills Live. We're talking with

1053
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:46,359
Speaker 1: Eric Wood, who you can catch on Bills Tonight with

1054
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:49,279
Speaker 1: Maddie along following each Bills game, and also you catch

1055
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,239
Speaker 1: Eric on Chopping Wood and on the Sean McDermott Show

1056
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:55,399
Speaker 1: when we break down the film of the games every week. Eric,

1057
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:58,640
Speaker 1: yesterday you mentioned and Maddie brought it up, the running game.

1058
00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:00,880
Speaker 1: It emerged once again and we saw it against the

1059
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:04,200
Speaker 1: New England Patriots, and now yesterday was very effective in

1060
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:10,680
Speaker 1: adding to the loss by the Chargers. Mitch Morse was

1061
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:13,760
Speaker 1: back in the lineup. He was healthy, John Feliciana was healthy,

1062
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:16,399
Speaker 1: Cody Ford was not. But Brian Winters was in there

1063
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:18,400
Speaker 1: and he's been in there quite a bit. And of

1064
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:20,880
Speaker 1: course both tackles have been stalwarts. Those guys have not

1065
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:23,080
Speaker 1: gone anywhere all season. Talk a little bit about all

1066
00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 1: this this offensive line. What are your thoughts on how

1067
00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:27,400
Speaker 1: much shuffling has gone on with the two guards in

1068
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:31,240
Speaker 1: the center, with the health and injuries that have happened

1069
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:33,919
Speaker 1: inside there where they stand right now in your opinion, Yeah,

1070
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:35,840
Speaker 1: it's been a lot for that group. You know, they

1071
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:38,200
Speaker 1: each week it seems like there's some type of issue

1072
00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:41,279
Speaker 1: with the interior offensive lind knock on Wood. Fortunately for

1073
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,759
Speaker 1: the tackles, they've been able to be pretty much you know,

1074
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:47,600
Speaker 1: setting stone all your Dion left a game for part

1075
00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:50,840
Speaker 1: for a little bit, but he was able to, I believe,

1076
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:53,480
Speaker 1: even just return in that same game. So at tackles,

1077
00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:55,919
Speaker 1: So the three snaps I think he missed, yeah, something

1078
00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:59,000
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, So at tackle, they've been really consistent.

1079
00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:02,360
Speaker 1: Inside there's been so much movement. One of the biggest

1080
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:04,720
Speaker 1: issues you see is you see a fumble yesterday between

1081
00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:07,120
Speaker 1: Josh Allen and Mitch Morris, which can happen when you're

1082
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:09,320
Speaker 1: going back and forth between centers. Now is later in

1083
00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:12,000
Speaker 1: the game. It'd be one thing. If it happened extremely

1084
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:14,319
Speaker 1: early in the game, you'd say, we'll shoot. That's him

1085
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:17,280
Speaker 1: working with a different guy with live reps. It's different

1086
00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:19,120
Speaker 1: taking a snap in a game with a nose guard

1087
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:22,879
Speaker 1: barreling down you as opposed to in practice when it's

1088
00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:25,920
Speaker 1: not as intense. But you know, I think I think

1089
00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:28,319
Speaker 1: the offense blinds played well this year for what they've

1090
00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 1: had to do protection wise, with teams knowing that they're

1091
00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 1: passing the ball so much. They're in a lot of

1092
00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:37,239
Speaker 1: ten personnel, which isn't a lot of chips from tight ends.

1093
00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:39,759
Speaker 1: It's not tight ends releasing through defensive ends. A lot

1094
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 1: of times it's the five guys up front in the

1095
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:45,279
Speaker 1: running backs. I'll I'll give Singletary especially credit. I think

1096
00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:47,879
Speaker 1: he's been great in protection. But I think it's been

1097
00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:50,720
Speaker 1: a tough situation for them with all the moving parts.

1098
00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:53,120
Speaker 1: But you have guys that a know what they're doing

1099
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:56,640
Speaker 1: and b have starting experience. Even for the youngest of

1100
00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:59,200
Speaker 1: the group, has a tremendous amount of starting experience these

1101
00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:01,759
Speaker 1: last two years. I gotta ask you this. There was

1102
00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:03,319
Speaker 1: a play that happened in the game, and I mentioned

1103
00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:07,480
Speaker 1: it on the broadcast. The defensive tackle nose tackle for

1104
00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:10,200
Speaker 1: the Chargers jumps into the neutral zone and they were

1105
00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:11,920
Speaker 1: not gonna the play was not gonna get run. But

1106
00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:16,560
Speaker 1: Mitch Morris quick snapped him. The flag comes out, Josh

1107
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:18,720
Speaker 1: sees it. It's a free play. I called it, you know,

1108
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:20,480
Speaker 1: I saw it happen. I said, oh my gosh, you

1109
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:22,280
Speaker 1: got a free play. And that's the play they hit

1110
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:26,120
Speaker 1: gave Davis down the far sideline on a free play.

1111
00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 1: Nobody else on the team on the offense thought the

1112
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:31,920
Speaker 1: ball was gonna be snapped. Mitch Morris quick snapped it,

1113
00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 1: Josh was ready for it, and they got a free

1114
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,000
Speaker 1: play and actually a big play out of it. How

1115
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:40,840
Speaker 1: much confidence does Mitch Morris have to have thinking, you know,

1116
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:43,760
Speaker 1: Josh could have been looking, you know, towards Cole Beasley

1117
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:46,560
Speaker 1: or Steph Diggs talking to him or whatever. Mitch is

1118
00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:49,840
Speaker 1: not looking at him. But he snapped it. Gave him

1119
00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:51,920
Speaker 1: a free play, no question. So even if they fumbled

1120
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:54,439
Speaker 1: it around and whatever, it was gonna come back. But man,

1121
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,120
Speaker 1: oh man, that's a lot of confidence by Mitch Morris

1122
00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:59,600
Speaker 1: sending that ball back there in the shotgun, not knowing

1123
00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:02,480
Speaker 1: whether Josh is even looking at him. Yeah, that's a

1124
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:06,160
Speaker 1: great point. And so generally, if it's a run play,

1125
00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 1: you'll still want to get that play snap. But if

1126
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:11,800
Speaker 1: it's not right before the cadence, you don't snap that

1127
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,920
Speaker 1: football because disaster can happen on a run play under center,

1128
00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:18,080
Speaker 1: especially if it's a pass play. All those guys are

1129
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:20,600
Speaker 1: thinking get down the field anyways, it's usually in most

1130
00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:23,000
Speaker 1: of their sight lines at receiver to see the flag thrown,

1131
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,440
Speaker 1: especially if it's on their side, they'll know to take

1132
00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:28,280
Speaker 1: a free release down the field. And because of their

1133
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:30,840
Speaker 1: not being fans in the stands this year, we've gotten

1134
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,480
Speaker 1: to hear Josh Allen's hard counts, which he works a

1135
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,320
Speaker 1: ton throughout the game. I can't tell you how many

1136
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:38,840
Speaker 1: times in my career, which we were always working with

1137
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:42,160
Speaker 1: a new quarterback, always with a new offensive coordinator, that

1138
00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:44,680
Speaker 1: we never switched up the cadence a lot because people

1139
00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 1: were thinking so much about the actual play, what their

1140
00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 1: assignment was, what their technique was. These guys have so

1141
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:53,440
Speaker 1: much experience together that Josh Allen is constantly working the

1142
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 1: cadence and he's gotten guys that jump on a number

1143
00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:58,919
Speaker 1: of times this year, and they're at the point now

1144
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 1: where if which is confident now you have your right steve,

1145
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:05,880
Speaker 1: you have if you're gonna snap it without everybody ready,

1146
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:08,880
Speaker 1: you have to know it's a penalty period. Yeah, there's

1147
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:11,800
Speaker 1: no question about it. And it's such a fine line

1148
00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 1: because if the guy gets across the neutral zone and

1149
00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:18,160
Speaker 1: touches anybody, then the plays dead, and if he's got

1150
00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:19,919
Speaker 1: a free path with a quarterback to play, is dead.

1151
00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:22,400
Speaker 1: So there's that tight window and it's a skill set

1152
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,040
Speaker 1: that's learned. But the centers that can do it. Green

1153
00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:27,320
Speaker 1: Bay sticks out to me the most. No matter who's

1154
00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:30,080
Speaker 1: playing center up front for Rogers, they get two to

1155
00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:32,560
Speaker 1: three shots down the field a game for free from

1156
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:35,760
Speaker 1: people jumping off sides, and the Bills are getting I'm

1157
00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 1: not saying they're getting two to three snaps free snaps

1158
00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:40,520
Speaker 1: down the field, but I've seen a number of third

1159
00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:42,920
Speaker 1: towns this year where they've gotten to be able to

1160
00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:45,680
Speaker 1: take a free shot. That's extremely valuable. To get two

1161
00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:49,640
Speaker 1: shots at a third and medium to long. I'm gonna

1162
00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:52,440
Speaker 1: question about the offensive line and just the way that

1163
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:55,240
Speaker 1: this offensive line handled Joey Bosa. Did you like their

1164
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:57,880
Speaker 1: playing to handle Joey Bosa? I mean, he was free

1165
00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:00,560
Speaker 1: on one of those plays. It was the Matt Barkley

1166
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:03,400
Speaker 1: sack that Matt Barkley took. But how did you think

1167
01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:06,560
Speaker 1: of their game plan to limit Joey Bosa and what

1168
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:08,040
Speaker 1: he was able to do. He had a pretty great

1169
01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:10,680
Speaker 1: game against the Bills, and the Bills are surely maybe

1170
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:13,080
Speaker 1: not going to face another Joey Bosa or Aaron Donald

1171
01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:15,920
Speaker 1: down the way. Maybe in the playoffs, but you know,

1172
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:17,760
Speaker 1: we've got the forty nine ers coming up here. They've

1173
01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:20,400
Speaker 1: got a decent defensive decent defensive line. We're going to

1174
01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:23,320
Speaker 1: face some good defensive lineman here on out to finish

1175
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:27,440
Speaker 1: the regular season. Yeah, let me start with the Matt

1176
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:30,680
Speaker 1: Barkley play. I like that Mitch Morris owned up to

1177
01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,200
Speaker 1: that one. Whether it was truly all on him or not,

1178
01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:35,240
Speaker 1: he took the blame for that, which seems to me

1179
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:39,320
Speaker 1: that wherever the protection should have been slid slid because

1180
01:00:39,320 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 1: of the pressure, they didn't go that way. And you

1181
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,720
Speaker 1: could tell because he came completely free on that play. No,

1182
01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:46,480
Speaker 1: one was accounting for him, So you give him one sack.

1183
01:00:46,560 --> 01:00:49,760
Speaker 1: There another sack that he had Josh moved left in

1184
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:52,640
Speaker 1: the pocket away from him. It gave him a wider

1185
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:56,960
Speaker 1: route around Darryl Williams the right tackle and he just

1186
01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:59,560
Speaker 1: kept running the hoop and it was a coverage sack.

1187
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,240
Speaker 1: So there's two of them. Now, don't let me take

1188
01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:05,360
Speaker 1: away from his performance yesterday. He had six tackles for Lassie,

1189
01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:07,880
Speaker 1: had three sacks of fumble recovery. He had a big

1190
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:11,040
Speaker 1: impact on the game. To answer your question fully, I

1191
01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:13,120
Speaker 1: didn't love the fact that they weren't giving him a

1192
01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 1: whole lot of attention early. Now that can be You

1193
01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:17,480
Speaker 1: have to give some of the credit to the Chargers.

1194
01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:21,760
Speaker 1: You can oftentimes dictate the way the offensive line slides

1195
01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:23,600
Speaker 1: their protection where they can double team, where they can

1196
01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:26,760
Speaker 1: chip by who else you bring in the pass rush,

1197
01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:30,520
Speaker 1: where they're bringing those guys away from Joey Bosa, or

1198
01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:32,800
Speaker 1: they're bringing them with him so that he's going to

1199
01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:34,600
Speaker 1: get a one on one matchup. So you got to

1200
01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 1: give the Chargers some credit because their second and third

1201
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:41,480
Speaker 1: best pass rushers were out yesterday. So with Nuosu and

1202
01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:44,760
Speaker 1: Ingram out, they knew that they need to do some

1203
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:47,520
Speaker 1: stuff to make sure that the Bills couldn't completely focus

1204
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 1: on Bosa. So I'll say I didn't love their plan

1205
01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:53,840
Speaker 1: of attack against them, But you have to give the

1206
01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:56,840
Speaker 1: Chargers some credit too, because they understand what teams are

1207
01:01:56,840 --> 01:01:59,520
Speaker 1: going to do to a guy like Bosa. Eric everybody

1208
01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:01,880
Speaker 1: sees these games differently, and they feel differently when the

1209
01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:05,240
Speaker 1: you know about the team and moving forward. The Bills

1210
01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:06,960
Speaker 1: come out with a ten point win over a team

1211
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:08,920
Speaker 1: that's really talented, and we're all kind of like, I

1212
01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:11,320
Speaker 1: don't know this, guys can throw it. They come out,

1213
01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:13,520
Speaker 1: they hold them to seventeen points, they score twenty seven,

1214
01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:16,280
Speaker 1: and really they're their own worst enemies in this game,

1215
01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:18,840
Speaker 1: turning it over three times in the fourth quarter and

1216
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:22,000
Speaker 1: still managing a ten point win. Does that make you

1217
01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:25,400
Speaker 1: feel good better? You know? Does it make you feel

1218
01:02:25,440 --> 01:02:28,120
Speaker 1: better about the team or worse knowing that they've got

1219
01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:29,840
Speaker 1: a lot under the hood that they have to tap

1220
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:33,200
Speaker 1: it that they can tap into. Or are you feeling

1221
01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:35,880
Speaker 1: worse that they didn't lump up a team that they

1222
01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:39,640
Speaker 1: could have a very talented team. I honestly feel great

1223
01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:42,000
Speaker 1: about the Buffalo Bills right now. They're a Hail Marry

1224
01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:44,720
Speaker 1: away from being nine and two on the season. They

1225
01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 1: win by ten points yesterday, they beat a Chargers team

1226
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:52,840
Speaker 1: and give them their most margin of defeat the entire season.

1227
01:02:52,920 --> 01:02:55,440
Speaker 1: And you have a rookie quarterback that's only going to

1228
01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:58,840
Speaker 1: get better as the season goes on. Herbert's playing at

1229
01:02:58,840 --> 01:03:02,200
Speaker 1: a high level right now. And you're going against the

1230
01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:05,919
Speaker 1: team with two big receivers on the outside, former first

1231
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:09,200
Speaker 1: round picks in Alan and Williams, and Hunter Henry, a

1232
01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:12,200
Speaker 1: former first round pick at tight end. Those guys have

1233
01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:15,160
Speaker 1: given the Bills fits throughout the season. Well, they lock

1234
01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:18,840
Speaker 1: them down yesterday. The pass rush, although I believe it

1235
01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:21,520
Speaker 1: was three sacks on the game, there was so much

1236
01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:24,600
Speaker 1: pressure around Herbert throughout the game he was forcing to

1237
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:26,960
Speaker 1: get rid of the ball fast. I love the position

1238
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:30,320
Speaker 1: that the Bills are in right now. And I think

1239
01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:33,240
Speaker 1: you know those that think that every week that the

1240
01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:35,680
Speaker 1: Bills are up multiple scores, that they should put the

1241
01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:38,720
Speaker 1: hammer down and win by four scores. Nobody does that.

1242
01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:40,920
Speaker 1: The Chiefs don't do that. The Chiefs are up seventeen

1243
01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:43,720
Speaker 1: nothing against Tampa Bay yesterday and they win by three

1244
01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:50,360
Speaker 1: or four points. Those huge blowouts rarely happen in this league. Yeah,

1245
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:54,080
Speaker 1: I was really encouraged, right, Maddie, Yeah, I was too,

1246
01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:56,000
Speaker 1: And I brought this up to Steve earlier in the

1247
01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:58,919
Speaker 1: show today. Do you think the Bills are peaking at

1248
01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:01,320
Speaker 1: the right time? I look at last year's record and

1249
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:04,280
Speaker 1: last year's games and how they played out. I feel

1250
01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:06,520
Speaker 1: like last year the Bills peaked a little bit too early.

1251
01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:08,520
Speaker 1: You look at some of those big wins and Tennessee

1252
01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:10,880
Speaker 1: Titans in Week five, and then they won those three

1253
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:14,200
Speaker 1: straight games from Week eleven a week thirteen, finishing with

1254
01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:16,840
Speaker 1: that Cowboys win in Week thirteen, and then they lost

1255
01:04:17,280 --> 01:04:19,760
Speaker 1: three of the last four games. Now, of course, the

1256
01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:22,640
Speaker 1: last one against New York Jets was our second string

1257
01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:24,800
Speaker 1: team in there. But do you think this team is

1258
01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:28,280
Speaker 1: peaking at a better time than last year? Maybe? Yeah,

1259
01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:30,120
Speaker 1: We'll see how the rest of the season goes. But

1260
01:04:30,160 --> 01:04:33,440
Speaker 1: when you look at their performance yesterday, when you're sitting

1261
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:36,040
Speaker 1: where they are at eight and three with a minus

1262
01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:38,720
Speaker 1: turnover margin on the season, you have so much room

1263
01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:41,760
Speaker 1: to grow and get better, and the defense seems to

1264
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:44,000
Speaker 1: be playing better. And I don't think that you could

1265
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:46,680
Speaker 1: take away the fact that these last two years on defense,

1266
01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:49,240
Speaker 1: they've lost maybe the two best leaders of the last

1267
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:53,000
Speaker 1: decade in the building and Kyle Williams and Lorenzo Alexander,

1268
01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:54,960
Speaker 1: and so they kind of had to find their footing

1269
01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:56,280
Speaker 1: over there. Who is going to be the one to

1270
01:04:56,680 --> 01:04:59,160
Speaker 1: say something? How are the guys all going to fit together?

1271
01:04:59,400 --> 01:05:02,040
Speaker 1: Kyle william two years ago ran all the line games

1272
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:05,040
Speaker 1: up front. He dictated the pass rush. Last year a

1273
01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:06,960
Speaker 1: lot of times on third down it was Lorenzo. Who

1274
01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:09,520
Speaker 1: is it gonna be this year? Guys are stepping up,

1275
01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 1: especially on the defensive side of the ball. The offense

1276
01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:13,760
Speaker 1: started the year fast, and you know what, a lot

1277
01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:16,880
Speaker 1: of offenses around the NFL started the year fast. I

1278
01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:20,000
Speaker 1: think the Bills if you cut out the turnovers, which

1279
01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:23,800
Speaker 1: is something that you control. You know, Josh, that's a

1280
01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:27,960
Speaker 1: throw he wants back the center quarterback exchange. That's something

1281
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:31,200
Speaker 1: that's very easy correct very easily corrected. I've never seen

1282
01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:34,600
Speaker 1: that from them before. And then Devin Singletary, you get

1283
01:05:34,640 --> 01:05:39,480
Speaker 1: the first down, it's the fourth quarter and you're at

1284
01:05:39,480 --> 01:05:42,040
Speaker 1: a plus ten yard run, two hands on the football.

1285
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:44,680
Speaker 1: Those are all learning experiences. That's a second year running

1286
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:47,919
Speaker 1: back that does that. You start cleaning up a few things.

1287
01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:51,840
Speaker 1: If you're the Bills, and man, they're a scary ball club. Yeah, Eric,

1288
01:05:52,040 --> 01:05:54,640
Speaker 1: one last one before before we let you go going forward,

1289
01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:57,160
Speaker 1: and we've just said, you know, they're gonna play the

1290
01:05:57,200 --> 01:05:59,280
Speaker 1: forty nine Yers Monday Night Football coming up late in

1291
01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:02,400
Speaker 1: the season, the Bill. And I've said this before and

1292
01:06:02,760 --> 01:06:06,320
Speaker 1: it's not always true, but I like Josh in big games,

1293
01:06:06,320 --> 01:06:10,000
Speaker 1: in standalone games, he seems to play well in those.

1294
01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:13,640
Speaker 1: I'm not saying they're you know, he's a world beater,

1295
01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:15,680
Speaker 1: but I think the guy really shows up big in

1296
01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:18,439
Speaker 1: those games. They're going in Monday Night Football. Now we've

1297
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:20,600
Speaker 1: just heard as well, it's going to be played in Arizona.

1298
01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:23,000
Speaker 1: As a lot of people suspected, we kind of the

1299
01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:25,720
Speaker 1: educated guests put it in Arizona. It is indeed going

1300
01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:27,880
Speaker 1: to be back in the Arizona Stadium where they were

1301
01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:29,960
Speaker 1: that just two weeks ago. It'll be three weeks ago

1302
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 1: when they show up. What do they look What do

1303
01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:34,320
Speaker 1: you look for from this offense from this football team

1304
01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:36,400
Speaker 1: going out there to Arizona playing the forty nine Ers

1305
01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:38,919
Speaker 1: on Monday Night football. What's the next step for this team? Yeah,

1306
01:06:38,960 --> 01:06:41,160
Speaker 1: I'm with you, Steve. I think Josh shows up again

1307
01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:44,360
Speaker 1: Josh always impresses me how he plays in big moments,

1308
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:47,960
Speaker 1: whether that's third downs, whether that's fourth quarters. I mean

1309
01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:52,040
Speaker 1: his comeback percentage is a phenomenal. His record and comeback

1310
01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:55,000
Speaker 1: situations and fourth quarters in the red zone, he seems

1311
01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:57,880
Speaker 1: to play better football. Well, now it's December. It's going

1312
01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:01,800
Speaker 1: to be December football. You're going to have multiple primetime games.

1313
01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:04,320
Speaker 1: He gets to get his feet wet in that national

1314
01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:08,600
Speaker 1: spotlight again, get some different time slots. Besides, every week

1315
01:07:08,640 --> 01:07:10,960
Speaker 1: is Sunday at one, and get used to big time

1316
01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:14,560
Speaker 1: football prior to the playoffs. I love it. I expect

1317
01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:16,840
Speaker 1: the Bills the role this week. I mean the Bills

1318
01:07:17,640 --> 01:07:21,240
Speaker 1: these last you know, you lose on the Hell Mary yesterday,

1319
01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:23,160
Speaker 1: there's a lot to clean up. I don't think Sean

1320
01:07:23,240 --> 01:07:26,800
Speaker 1: mc McDermott's gonna take his foot off this crew, and

1321
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:29,640
Speaker 1: I think they put the pedal down and they're extremely

1322
01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:33,160
Speaker 1: focused for this month of December. Eric Wood former Buffalo

01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:39,360
Speaker 1: Maddie Awards, and now is the time Maddie lots to

1342
01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:41,840
Speaker 1: choose from because there's so many guys that contributed and

1343
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:44,320
Speaker 1: really it wasn't like Josh Allen threw for seven thousand

1344
01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:46,400
Speaker 1: yards in the game, so there's a lot of guys

1345
01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:47,960
Speaker 1: that really had a hand in this one. Maybe some

1346
01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:51,000
Speaker 1: of them on the defensive side of the ball. Yeah,

1347
01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:54,439
Speaker 1: Gotson on the defensive side, gots On on on the offensive side.

1348
01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:58,080
Speaker 1: Should start on the defensive side with our defensive MVP. Here,

1349
01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,880
Speaker 1: you do it, well, who's the defensive MVP? All right?

1350
01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:05,519
Speaker 1: Defensive MVP is the guy who's been hot the last

1351
01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:09,240
Speaker 1: couple of games, after really having a lot of criticism

1352
01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:14,200
Speaker 1: from Bill's fans from media for the start of his season,

1353
01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:17,439
Speaker 1: the way he performed in games. That's Aj Kleine. He

1354
01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:22,760
Speaker 1: continues to play strong. Fourteen tackles, one and a half sacks,

1355
01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:27,000
Speaker 1: He had a couple of quarterback hits, he had three TFLs,

1356
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:30,479
Speaker 1: and I mean, it's been great to see him come along.

1357
01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:34,280
Speaker 1: Unfortunately we haven't had Matt Milano on the field as

1358
01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:36,799
Speaker 1: much due to his injury. But I feel like Tremaine

1359
01:09:36,840 --> 01:09:39,479
Speaker 1: and Aj are really getting used to each other. I mean,

1360
01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:43,479
Speaker 1: Tremaine had eleven tackles yesterday. I think it's his third

1361
01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:47,880
Speaker 1: straight game where he's had at least ten tackles. According

1362
01:09:47,920 --> 01:09:51,040
Speaker 1: to Chris Brown's Numbers to No column, which has a

1363
01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:52,960
Speaker 1: lot of great numbers in there. If you haven't looked

1364
01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:55,559
Speaker 1: in there, you should check it out, definitely to get

1365
01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:57,640
Speaker 1: in the know about where the Bills are at. But

1366
01:09:57,720 --> 01:09:59,599
Speaker 1: really proud of aj Klein for what he's been able

1367
01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:02,640
Speaker 1: to do and to silence the doubters. I mean, the

1368
01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:07,400
Speaker 1: crisism that he received was so much from fans and

1369
01:10:07,520 --> 01:10:12,160
Speaker 1: from media members. And yes, he wasn't contributing, but I

1370
01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:15,920
Speaker 1: think we've really been able to see him shine based

1371
01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:19,200
Speaker 1: off of how Leslie Frazier is using him in this defense. Now, Yeah,

1372
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:21,080
Speaker 1: I don't think it's any question it was. It was.

1373
01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:23,800
Speaker 1: He's had a couple in the last three weeks, three

1374
01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:27,479
Speaker 1: or four games before Arizona and UH and going back,

1375
01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:29,880
Speaker 1: he started to play a little better. And I've said

1376
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:32,439
Speaker 1: this all along. I think that the defensive coaching staff,

1377
01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:34,880
Speaker 1: and certainly we've heard him from him that he was

1378
01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:39,439
Speaker 1: he was a middle linebacker in this defense, backing up

1379
01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:42,240
Speaker 1: Luke Keekley in Carolina. Now he's learning a completely new

1380
01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:45,479
Speaker 1: position and had to spend time getting his mind around that,

1381
01:10:45,640 --> 01:10:47,320
Speaker 1: and I think the coaching staff wanted to get their

1382
01:10:47,320 --> 01:10:49,360
Speaker 1: mind around his skill set and how he could replace

1383
01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:52,240
Speaker 1: Matt Milano, on how they could use him differently. So

1384
01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:56,160
Speaker 1: instead of now just replacing Matt Milano. They're making the

1385
01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:59,960
Speaker 1: role more suitable for a J. Klein and his skill set.

1386
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:02,439
Speaker 1: Rather than having him do what Milano tried to do,

1387
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:05,840
Speaker 1: They're giving him there. So yeah, they're they're working with him,

1388
01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:09,240
Speaker 1: and I think that shows that was your defensive MVPAJ Klein,

1389
01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:13,720
Speaker 1: Who's your offensive MVP? Offensive MVP? I'm going to give

1390
01:11:13,760 --> 01:11:16,639
Speaker 1: this one to the rookie, Gabriel Davis. It was great

1391
01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:19,439
Speaker 1: to see him step up in John Brown's absence. I

1392
01:11:19,479 --> 01:11:21,800
Speaker 1: feel like this offense is really going to lean on

1393
01:11:21,880 --> 01:11:25,160
Speaker 1: him the next couple of weeks. Just while John Brown

1394
01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:29,960
Speaker 1: is now, Gabriel Davis is someone who is a strong receiver.

1395
01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:32,439
Speaker 1: He's able to do things to other receivers just can't

1396
01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:35,160
Speaker 1: because of his body size, because of his strength. To

1397
01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:38,639
Speaker 1: see him catch three passes for seventy nine yards forty

1398
01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:42,040
Speaker 1: four yards was his longest reception a touchdown. Just a

1399
01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:44,880
Speaker 1: great game out of him. He hasn't ran up those

1400
01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:49,080
Speaker 1: type of yards in the receiving column in a few games,

1401
01:11:49,080 --> 01:11:51,519
Speaker 1: so it was good to see him as a leader

1402
01:11:51,560 --> 01:11:54,960
Speaker 1: in the receiving game. An honorable mention goes to the

1403
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:57,200
Speaker 1: run game, being able to get that going again. It

1404
01:11:57,280 --> 01:12:01,080
Speaker 1: was their second game where they had a rate rushing offense,

1405
01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:03,639
Speaker 1: great rushing attack, one hundred and seventy two rushing yards.

1406
01:12:03,640 --> 01:12:05,639
Speaker 1: But I think the key here in the one hundred

1407
01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,600
Speaker 1: and seventy two rushing yards they had one hundred and

1408
01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:11,960
Speaker 1: forty one. Out of the running backs off of twenty carries,

1409
01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:15,960
Speaker 1: they average over seven yards to carry. That is incredible.

1410
01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:20,000
Speaker 1: That's the highest they've averaged off of carries yet this season.

1411
01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:22,759
Speaker 1: When you're looking at running backs, I think that's something

1412
01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:25,639
Speaker 1: that you need to have at this point in the season.

1413
01:12:25,680 --> 01:12:28,240
Speaker 1: And to be able to go over five yards to

1414
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:31,559
Speaker 1: carry in a game is very promising for what's to come.

1415
01:12:31,800 --> 01:12:33,439
Speaker 1: Would you want to be able to look to Zach

1416
01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:36,800
Speaker 1: Moss and Devin singletarry maybe a little bit more here

1417
01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:39,400
Speaker 1: when the weather gets cold. Yeah, I think that's a key.

1418
01:12:39,520 --> 01:12:41,840
Speaker 1: That The fact that they had the high average per

1419
01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:43,960
Speaker 1: carry in a game where Josh Allen only threw the

1420
01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:48,160
Speaker 1: ball twenty four times, that's huge and that was a

1421
01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:50,200
Speaker 1: big cog and what they did. But I like Gabriel

1422
01:12:50,240 --> 01:12:52,040
Speaker 1: Davis as well. He was a guy that you know,

1423
01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:53,479
Speaker 1: you knew he was gonna have to do a little

1424
01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:56,479
Speaker 1: more with John Brown out and he did. They asked

1425
01:12:56,520 --> 01:12:58,120
Speaker 1: him too, and he came through in a big way.

1426
01:12:58,200 --> 01:13:01,439
Speaker 1: Now you've got one that's called Mattie Award, called the closer.

1427
01:13:01,439 --> 01:13:05,759
Speaker 1: Who's that The closer goes to my guy, Tredevious White

1428
01:13:05,760 --> 01:13:08,519
Speaker 1: for that interception, that pick that he had. Good to

1429
01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:10,519
Speaker 1: see him close out the game late in the game

1430
01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:13,800
Speaker 1: when when the Bills needed a defensive play. Again, we're

1431
01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:17,200
Speaker 1: seeing this defense close out games. Uh, not just tred

1432
01:13:17,240 --> 01:13:19,880
Speaker 1: Avious White. Looking at the last couple of weeks, it's

1433
01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:21,840
Speaker 1: been the defense as a whole that's been able to

1434
01:13:21,880 --> 01:13:25,080
Speaker 1: close out games, which they haven't done necessarily in the

1435
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:27,439
Speaker 1: beginning of the season. We were all asking, when is

1436
01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:29,960
Speaker 1: this defense going to finish a game? Where the offense

1437
01:13:30,120 --> 01:13:32,120
Speaker 1: is finishing games for us? Right now, we need we

1438
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:34,280
Speaker 1: need the defense to finish games for us like they

1439
01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:37,000
Speaker 1: did last season. So good to see Tardevius White get

1440
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:39,840
Speaker 1: another interception. He's talked about just how hard it has

1441
01:13:39,880 --> 01:13:43,679
Speaker 1: been to get interceptions this year because how he baits

1442
01:13:43,720 --> 01:13:47,080
Speaker 1: a quarterback. People haven't been throwing his direction. That that's

1443
01:13:47,120 --> 01:13:49,439
Speaker 1: what happens to really great corners in this league is

1444
01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:52,040
Speaker 1: people don't throw your way. And it's also really hard

1445
01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:54,240
Speaker 1: to bait and to be able to sneak around and

1446
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:57,280
Speaker 1: pick off a pass. He was able to do that yesterday. Yeah,

1447
01:13:57,280 --> 01:14:00,400
Speaker 1: it's you become a victim of your own success when

1448
01:14:00,400 --> 01:14:02,640
Speaker 1: you're playing corner and nobody wants to throw to the

1449
01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:05,280
Speaker 1: guy you're covering. And yeah, and he's done a really

1450
01:14:05,400 --> 01:14:08,800
Speaker 1: nice job all year and yesterday was no exception. That

1451
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:11,080
Speaker 1: interception couldn't have come at a better time. You were

1452
01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:14,120
Speaker 1: exactly right. Okay, Now the Maddie Award for a guy

1453
01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:20,000
Speaker 1: as tough as nails man Josh Allen. Anytime this dude

1454
01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:23,080
Speaker 1: goes down and you're like questioning if he's gonna get

1455
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:26,240
Speaker 1: up and be okay, he gets up and he's okay.

1456
01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:30,360
Speaker 1: When Josh Allen went out for that snap yesterday, the

1457
01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:33,280
Speaker 1: way that he was just down on the ground, I

1458
01:14:33,320 --> 01:14:37,120
Speaker 1: think all of Bill's nafia kind of held their breath

1459
01:14:37,160 --> 01:14:40,160
Speaker 1: for a second, and we're like, Oh, is he gonna

1460
01:14:40,160 --> 01:14:43,040
Speaker 1: be okay? Is this the season ending thing? Is he

1461
01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:44,880
Speaker 1: going to be out for a couple of games? But

1462
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:48,000
Speaker 1: of course he just takes one playoff on the sideline,

1463
01:14:48,040 --> 01:14:50,000
Speaker 1: gets right back into the game and was talking about

1464
01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:52,640
Speaker 1: how he was frustrated that he was out for a

1465
01:14:52,720 --> 01:14:57,040
Speaker 1: play in his postgame press conference. This guy is so tough.

1466
01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:00,800
Speaker 1: I think in another life he could be a defensive

1467
01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:03,400
Speaker 1: lineman just with the way that he plays, the physicality

1468
01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:06,040
Speaker 1: that he plays with. Never doubt Josh Allen. When he

1469
01:15:06,080 --> 01:15:08,880
Speaker 1: gets roughed around a little bit, he's gonna be Okay. Yeah,

1470
01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:11,360
Speaker 1: those are good. Those are good awards. Yeah, And Josh

1471
01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,240
Speaker 1: Allen's for Davis Wide aj Clein Gabe Davis all played

1472
01:15:14,240 --> 01:15:16,479
Speaker 1: a part yesterday. I thought another guy that went flew

1473
01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:20,719
Speaker 1: a little bit under the radar and started flashing at Oliver.

1474
01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:22,760
Speaker 1: He made a couple of tackles for losses. He also

1475
01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:25,120
Speaker 1: set up some of his teammates for to make tackles

1476
01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:29,280
Speaker 1: for losses. With his penetration at Oliver starting to spread

1477
01:15:29,360 --> 01:15:30,840
Speaker 1: his wings a little bit here in the second half

1478
01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:32,960
Speaker 1: of the season as well. Let's let's look out and

1479
01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:35,320
Speaker 1: let's raise our heads out of western New York and

1480
01:15:35,400 --> 01:15:37,880
Speaker 1: look out over the country across the National Football League.

1481
01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:41,280
Speaker 1: You've got an award you're calling. Can anyone stop him?

1482
01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:45,760
Speaker 1: Who's that? That is a guy that's on the Titans.

1483
01:15:45,920 --> 01:15:50,200
Speaker 1: It's Derek Henry. He went off yesterday. It wasn't Dalvin's

1484
01:15:50,240 --> 01:15:53,519
Speaker 1: cook day yet. Cook's Day yesterday he was able to

1485
01:15:53,560 --> 01:15:56,400
Speaker 1: be limited, but Derrick Henry went off twenty seven carries,

1486
01:15:56,400 --> 01:16:00,000
Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy eight rushing yards. He had three touchdowns.

1487
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:02,720
Speaker 1: They all came in the first half. This is a

1488
01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:04,720
Speaker 1: player that you don't want to see in the playoffs.

1489
01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:09,160
Speaker 1: This is someone who can reak havoc on any team's defense.

1490
01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:13,759
Speaker 1: He continues to have a strong season, his body typed,

1491
01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:17,800
Speaker 1: his makeup is just it's wild for running back. I mean,

1492
01:16:18,280 --> 01:16:21,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, if you, if anybody has kids that are

1493
01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:24,559
Speaker 1: his size, just make it. Just make your kid running back,

1494
01:16:24,600 --> 01:16:28,479
Speaker 1: because look at what Derrick Henry has been able to do. Yeah,

1495
01:16:28,520 --> 01:16:32,240
Speaker 1: and I think I can see it coming down the road.

1496
01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:33,960
Speaker 1: I think the Bills and the Titans are on a

1497
01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:37,000
Speaker 1: collision course in the playoffs. I think that's really gonna happen.

1498
01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:39,080
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a repeat of a

1499
01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:42,320
Speaker 1: Tuesday game, a COVID game that the Bills were emotionally

1500
01:16:42,360 --> 01:16:45,320
Speaker 1: flat in and the Tennessee Titans were flying high. And

1501
01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:49,479
Speaker 1: I think that's going to be a rematch that is

1502
01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:52,200
Speaker 1: going to be really a nice, nice football game to see.

1503
01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:55,240
Speaker 1: You got one another one. Maddie Ward for the best

1504
01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:59,360
Speaker 1: touchdown celebration. Who did you see yesterday? So it was

1505
01:16:59,520 --> 01:17:02,080
Speaker 1: always not even celebration. I don't know if we should

1506
01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:04,400
Speaker 1: call the celebration. I'll call it one just because of

1507
01:17:04,400 --> 01:17:06,880
Speaker 1: the way that this player jumped into the end zone.

1508
01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:10,800
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill had a game yesterday for the Chiefs. On

1509
01:17:10,800 --> 01:17:14,599
Speaker 1: one of his touchdown catches, he backflipped into the end

1510
01:17:14,680 --> 01:17:17,080
Speaker 1: zone to score the touchdown. He finished the day with

1511
01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:20,680
Speaker 1: thirteen catches for two hundred and sixty nine yards three touchdowns.

1512
01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:24,280
Speaker 1: His backflip came on a forty four yard touchdown reception.

1513
01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:27,200
Speaker 1: He basically jukes the defender out of the way and

1514
01:17:27,240 --> 01:17:30,959
Speaker 1: then he had green grass ahead of him, so he stopped,

1515
01:17:31,160 --> 01:17:34,479
Speaker 1: looked around, backflipped into the end zone. He didn't stick it.

1516
01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:39,200
Speaker 1: It wasn't a perfect landing, but Tyreek Hill insane athlete. Yeah,

1517
01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:41,800
Speaker 1: that's with pads on and all the stuff that you

1518
01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:43,639
Speaker 1: gotta were to play football. That's a pretty good trick

1519
01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:46,560
Speaker 1: being able to do a backflip. You have also had one.

1520
01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:49,639
Speaker 1: You're talking about a guy in touchdown City. I'm glad

1521
01:17:49,640 --> 01:17:52,680
Speaker 1: you brought this up touchdown City. And this is not

1522
01:17:52,760 --> 01:17:55,200
Speaker 1: a pro football player but a college football player. Right now,

1523
01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:58,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna go college wide right now. And I think

1524
01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:01,679
Speaker 1: all of us in Buffalo love to see when other

1525
01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:04,519
Speaker 1: people who come from Buffalo or who are playing in

1526
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:08,519
Speaker 1: Buffalo have success, just as a city of Buffalo. I mean,

1527
01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:12,479
Speaker 1: when I saw Jared Patterson's stat line come across and

1528
01:18:12,520 --> 01:18:15,880
Speaker 1: when people were chattering about him on Twitter yesterday, I

1529
01:18:15,960 --> 01:18:18,280
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, Buffalo, and I think that's how we

1530
01:18:18,320 --> 01:18:22,200
Speaker 1: all feel. He went off yesterday thirty six carries for

1531
01:18:22,280 --> 01:18:26,880
Speaker 1: four hundred nine rushing yards eight threaking touchdowns against Kent State.

1532
01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:30,160
Speaker 1: The game before that, he had thirty one carries, three

1533
01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:34,320
Speaker 1: under one rushing yards, four rushing touchdowns. He's had sixteen

1534
01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:39,080
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the last four games. Incredible, four hundred nine

1535
01:18:39,120 --> 01:18:44,479
Speaker 1: rushing yards, eight touchdowns. How is that possible? I hope

1536
01:18:44,520 --> 01:18:47,240
Speaker 1: this kid has a future in the NFL because the

1537
01:18:47,280 --> 01:18:50,200
Speaker 1: way that he's playing, he surely deserves it. Yeah, all

1538
01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:52,280
Speaker 1: Buffalo can get on board with that. Great to see

1539
01:18:52,280 --> 01:18:54,800
Speaker 1: the ub Bulls put that on there, and a great

1540
01:18:54,840 --> 01:18:57,400
Speaker 1: great job by Jared Patterson. Congratulations to him on the

1541
01:18:57,479 --> 01:18:59,120
Speaker 1: day he had. But you're right, he's in the midst

1542
01:18:59,160 --> 01:19:01,439
Speaker 1: of a huge season. It's going to be worth watching.

1543
01:19:01,720 --> 01:19:03,439
Speaker 1: Now you've got one that I'm glad you put on

1544
01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:07,479
Speaker 1: as well. Another one from the College Ranks, your Inspiration Award,

1545
01:19:07,479 --> 01:19:10,320
Speaker 1: and I've been waiting for your take on this one.

1546
01:19:11,400 --> 01:19:16,760
Speaker 1: Sarah Fuller tell me about her so special, What a

1547
01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:20,479
Speaker 1: cool moment for the world. I was choked up about

1548
01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:24,960
Speaker 1: it watching the replay on Twitter. Definitely had that Vanderbilt

1549
01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:28,200
Speaker 1: Missouri game on at my home for the first half.

1550
01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:31,080
Speaker 1: Sarah Fuller became the first woman to play in a

1551
01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:35,799
Speaker 1: Power Five game on Saturday. She participated in a kickoff.

1552
01:19:36,160 --> 01:19:38,400
Speaker 1: She played for the Vanderbilt soccer team. The reason why

1553
01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:40,640
Speaker 1: she played in this football game was because Vandy was

1554
01:19:40,640 --> 01:19:44,400
Speaker 1: down a bunch of specialists due to COVID nineteen testing

1555
01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:47,519
Speaker 1: and things like that, so they called on her as

1556
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:49,560
Speaker 1: an option to be able to be a kicker. She

1557
01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:52,120
Speaker 1: was able to get into the game for a little

1558
01:19:52,160 --> 01:19:55,360
Speaker 1: squib kick. And I think it's just really inspiring for

1559
01:19:55,680 --> 01:19:58,519
Speaker 1: the girls out there who are interested in playing football.

1560
01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:00,599
Speaker 1: If you can kick, if you've got a strong leg,

1561
01:20:00,640 --> 01:20:04,080
Speaker 1: if you can do anything to the best of your ability,

1562
01:20:04,280 --> 01:20:07,680
Speaker 1: and you stand out against people in the world, you

1563
01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:10,240
Speaker 1: deserve a chance. And so to see her get in

1564
01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:12,800
Speaker 1: that game as the first woman to play in a

1565
01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:16,920
Speaker 1: Power five game just brought chills to me, a huge

1566
01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:20,040
Speaker 1: smile on my face. I love it. I love where

1567
01:20:20,080 --> 01:20:24,719
Speaker 1: women are headed to in this sports world being more

1568
01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:28,719
Speaker 1: and more a part of prominent positions in the sports industry.

1569
01:20:28,800 --> 01:20:31,439
Speaker 1: Sarah Fuller is just another person to do that. So

1570
01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:34,040
Speaker 1: hats off to her way to pave the way. Really

1571
01:20:34,040 --> 01:20:36,760
Speaker 1: proud of her, totally totally with you on that. That's

1572
01:20:36,880 --> 01:20:38,960
Speaker 1: that's awesome to and to see her go out there

1573
01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:43,040
Speaker 1: and take part. And you're right, no reason why. If

1574
01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:45,040
Speaker 1: you want to, if you want to pursue it, go

1575
01:20:45,080 --> 01:20:47,479
Speaker 1: after it and get it done. Good for Sarah Fuller,

1576
01:20:47,600 --> 01:20:50,760
Speaker 1: Vanderbilt kicker who's the first female to play in a

1577
01:20:50,840 --> 01:20:54,679
Speaker 1: Power five football game, and she did this last Saturday

1578
01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:57,040
Speaker 1: for Vanderbilt. Congratulations are all right now? Last one I

1579
01:20:57,080 --> 01:21:01,160
Speaker 1: know you were. The last one is the Comeback Award

1580
01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:04,599
Speaker 1: Mattie Award for Comeback Award. You gave it a big

1581
01:21:04,640 --> 01:21:09,080
Speaker 1: try this weekend over the Thanksgiving holiday to thing and

1582
01:21:09,120 --> 01:21:13,599
Speaker 1: I know that there were some setbacks, but the Comeback

1583
01:21:13,640 --> 01:21:16,000
Speaker 1: Award goes to you and you and your recipe for

1584
01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:20,960
Speaker 1: turkey su Yeah. So I just had a heyday trying

1585
01:21:20,960 --> 01:21:24,240
Speaker 1: to make my first turkey. It was impossible. And my

1586
01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:27,720
Speaker 1: father is someone who's just an incredible chef and can

1587
01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:31,960
Speaker 1: just whip up anything with no instructions, no directions, and

1588
01:21:32,040 --> 01:21:34,240
Speaker 1: so I'm calling him for all this advice in the

1589
01:21:34,320 --> 01:21:36,000
Speaker 1: how to Cook at Turkey and he's like, you're just

1590
01:21:36,040 --> 01:21:38,800
Speaker 1: putting an oven, You're just defrost it. You just do this.

1591
01:21:38,920 --> 01:21:41,240
Speaker 1: I'm like, Dad, I need more directions than just that.

1592
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:43,599
Speaker 1: I don't have the touch that you have yet in

1593
01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:47,080
Speaker 1: my life. So anyways, after defrosting this stupid turkey for

1594
01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:49,920
Speaker 1: like what seemed like a week, finally got it into

1595
01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:54,760
Speaker 1: the oven basically halfway still frozen. The turkey tastes it okay,

1596
01:21:54,880 --> 01:21:56,880
Speaker 1: but you know what came out of it. I made

1597
01:21:57,320 --> 01:22:00,839
Speaker 1: lemonade out of lemons. I made some really great turkey

1598
01:22:00,880 --> 01:22:04,880
Speaker 1: soup this week. It tasted so wonderful. It took about

1599
01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:08,040
Speaker 1: eight hours to make. But that doesn't matter because I

1600
01:22:08,200 --> 01:22:12,320
Speaker 1: turned my turkey troubles into turkey goodness. Proud of you, Maddie,

1601
01:22:12,320 --> 01:22:16,080
Speaker 1: great job, congratulations and you one day you will you

1602
01:22:16,120 --> 01:22:18,680
Speaker 1: will baste to turkey and it will look like a

1603
01:22:18,800 --> 01:22:21,519
Speaker 1: TV commercial. Right, He'll be looking coming out of the

1604
01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:24,800
Speaker 1: oven looking like a TV commercial. Maybe not next year.

01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:58,599
Speaker 1: victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. We'll be right back.

Speaker 1: homes remotely today, not in our Seneca one studios on

1621
01:23:22,280 --> 01:23:25,519
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill on Buffalo Bills Radio, one Bills Live. We

1622
01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:29,040
Speaker 1: just got through doing the Maddie Awards, brought to you

1623
01:23:29,080 --> 01:23:32,040
Speaker 1: by Energy Mark, the official energy supplier the Buffalo Bills.

1624
01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:34,439
Speaker 1: You know, we talked about that stuff, Maddie. There's a

1625
01:23:34,479 --> 01:23:36,400
Speaker 1: lot of guys that stood out in that game yesterday.

1626
01:23:36,400 --> 01:23:40,800
Speaker 1: There's a lot of stuff going on, and everybody Eric

1627
01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:42,800
Speaker 1: Wood was with me, and I know you are too.

1628
01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:45,280
Speaker 1: I was really kind of encouraged by a game like yesterday.

1629
01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:47,560
Speaker 1: You win by ten points, which is as comfortable to

1630
01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:52,040
Speaker 1: win as you've had all season, and you know, it

1631
01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:54,280
Speaker 1: didn't feel great, but man, oh man, you couldn't have

1632
01:23:54,320 --> 01:23:57,600
Speaker 1: stumbled anymore than the Bills did yesterday, and turning it

1633
01:23:57,640 --> 01:23:59,680
Speaker 1: over three times in the fourth quarter, given up a

1634
01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:02,800
Speaker 1: hail Mary that didn't actually lead to a score, but

1635
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:04,640
Speaker 1: you know, they still completed at first in goal on

1636
01:24:04,680 --> 01:24:06,960
Speaker 1: the five or whatever, and the Bills come out with

1637
01:24:07,000 --> 01:24:11,400
Speaker 1: a ten point win. There's just a ton under the

1638
01:24:11,479 --> 01:24:14,640
Speaker 1: hood that the Bills have got that they can go

1639
01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:17,400
Speaker 1: to and there and the things that held them back

1640
01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:21,080
Speaker 1: yesterday are inside their building. It's not like the team

1641
01:24:21,120 --> 01:24:26,200
Speaker 1: they're playing, and I just I feel really encouraged by

1642
01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:28,960
Speaker 1: a win, even as uncomfortable as it was late in

1643
01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:33,160
Speaker 1: that game. Yeah, I think I left the complex feeling

1644
01:24:33,200 --> 01:24:37,000
Speaker 1: a little bit angry about those turnovers and just about

1645
01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:40,519
Speaker 1: the play towards the end. Of the game, the lackluster plays,

1646
01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:45,040
Speaker 1: the relaxedness of kind of letting the game fade away

1647
01:24:45,040 --> 01:24:46,920
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter or something that you don't want

1648
01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:49,240
Speaker 1: to do. But then I woke up this morning and

1649
01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:52,880
Speaker 1: I was feeling completely different. And now I'm on your

1650
01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:55,920
Speaker 1: side too. I think, Wow, to be able to win

1651
01:24:55,960 --> 01:24:59,200
Speaker 1: that game by ten points, allow seventeen points to an

1652
01:24:59,200 --> 01:25:03,479
Speaker 1: offense who's been red hot averaging twenty six points per game,

1653
01:25:03,840 --> 01:25:07,400
Speaker 1: to put up almost thirty against a decent defense. It's

1654
01:25:07,400 --> 01:25:10,200
Speaker 1: not like their defense was terrible. I mean, Joey Boast, so,

1655
01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:12,360
Speaker 1: like we've talked about a lot, had a good game,

1656
01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:15,559
Speaker 1: and to make the mistakes that we made that we

1657
01:25:15,680 --> 01:25:20,160
Speaker 1: made that are all correctable on our own doing pretty

1658
01:25:20,160 --> 01:25:23,360
Speaker 1: good position there. I agree. I agree we've got and

1659
01:25:23,479 --> 01:25:25,480
Speaker 1: that was our tap. That was both of our takeaways

1660
01:25:25,520 --> 01:25:27,720
Speaker 1: from the game. Maybe not right away, but now that

1661
01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:30,240
Speaker 1: you've had a day or a good night's sleep to

1662
01:25:30,320 --> 01:25:32,439
Speaker 1: think about it, I think I feel the exact same way.

1663
01:25:32,439 --> 01:25:34,160
Speaker 1: And we've got people tweeting at us and what their

1664
01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:36,720
Speaker 1: biggest takeaway from the Bills win over the Chargers from

1665
01:25:36,720 --> 01:25:39,559
Speaker 1: all but he says this the team has not yet

1666
01:25:39,560 --> 01:25:41,760
Speaker 1: played a complete game. And has a record of eight

1667
01:25:41,800 --> 01:25:44,240
Speaker 1: and three. If they can manage to play their best

1668
01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:48,360
Speaker 1: football in December and January, good things can happen. And

1669
01:25:48,560 --> 01:25:51,040
Speaker 1: he's right. If this team put it all together for

1670
01:25:51,040 --> 01:25:53,240
Speaker 1: one week, there's nobody that's going beat him. I don't

1671
01:25:53,280 --> 01:25:56,240
Speaker 1: mean I ain't nobody. I mean they've got they've got

1672
01:25:56,240 --> 01:25:59,679
Speaker 1: the ability and the depth. If certainly, if they're healthy,

1673
01:26:00,280 --> 01:26:02,760
Speaker 1: if they get John Brown back, they get Matt Milano back.

1674
01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:05,360
Speaker 1: You know, Cody Ford's you know he's not going to

1675
01:26:05,400 --> 01:26:07,720
Speaker 1: see the field again this season, but you know, you

1676
01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:11,559
Speaker 1: stay healthy at all those key spots at cornerback opposite

1677
01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:15,280
Speaker 1: Tredavious White, and of course if they can stay virus free.

1678
01:26:15,840 --> 01:26:18,360
Speaker 1: You gotta really love where this team is headed, particularly

1679
01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:21,479
Speaker 1: as they come down this stretch. Yeah, I completely agree,

1680
01:26:21,520 --> 01:26:25,599
Speaker 1: and step says nice w but we can't be letting

1681
01:26:25,640 --> 01:26:29,960
Speaker 1: teams hang around like that. Careless turnovers will absolutely we're

1682
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:33,600
Speaker 1: absolutely devastating against better opponents down the stretch and in

1683
01:26:33,640 --> 01:26:37,439
Speaker 1: the playoffs, ball security issues and seventeen looking like a

1684
01:26:37,520 --> 01:26:39,840
Speaker 1: rookie again at times. Skyle love eight to three and

1685
01:26:39,960 --> 01:26:42,920
Speaker 1: the division lead though, yep, I mean that's what we've

1686
01:26:42,920 --> 01:26:45,800
Speaker 1: been talking about. And I think the Josh looking like

1687
01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:48,479
Speaker 1: a rookie again at times, I don't know if that's

1688
01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:52,000
Speaker 1: just something that that's just Josh Allen where because of

1689
01:26:52,040 --> 01:26:56,320
Speaker 1: the competitor that he is and because of how much

1690
01:26:56,360 --> 01:26:58,559
Speaker 1: he wants to win the game for his team and

1691
01:26:58,680 --> 01:27:01,800
Speaker 1: how much he's willing to put his body online for

1692
01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:05,280
Speaker 1: his team, that we may see not every single game,

1693
01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:08,320
Speaker 1: but from time to time, we may see Josh Allen

1694
01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:12,640
Speaker 1: make a silly mistake. And that's just because he's that

1695
01:27:12,760 --> 01:27:15,680
Speaker 1: type of quarterback that's gonna do anything he can to

1696
01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:18,000
Speaker 1: put his team in the right position, and in that moment,

1697
01:27:18,040 --> 01:27:20,200
Speaker 1: it may not be the right call, but if it

1698
01:27:20,240 --> 01:27:23,679
Speaker 1: plays out in his favor, people are like, Oh, that's

1699
01:27:23,760 --> 01:27:26,519
Speaker 1: crazy what he just did. Yeah, that's right. And the

1700
01:27:26,560 --> 01:27:28,639
Speaker 1: Bills are coming up on a Monday night football game

1701
01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:31,439
Speaker 1: this coming week against San Francisco forty nine ers. And

1702
01:27:31,439 --> 01:27:34,120
Speaker 1: if you haven't heard that game, the Buffalo Bills and

1703
01:27:34,360 --> 01:27:36,200
Speaker 1: San Francisco to play the Niners is not going to

1704
01:27:36,240 --> 01:27:39,600
Speaker 1: be in San Francisco, but it's gonna be in Arizona,

1705
01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:41,320
Speaker 1: a place where the Bills played just two and a

1706
01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:45,680
Speaker 1: half weeks ago. Actually, yeah, two full weeks ago in Arizona.

1707
01:27:45,720 --> 01:27:49,360
Speaker 1: The hail Murray brought them down to defeat, but they

1708
01:27:49,360 --> 01:27:52,120
Speaker 1: played extremely well. And I'm telling you this that it

1709
01:27:52,200 --> 01:27:54,280
Speaker 1: is a huge boost to go back. And you think

1710
01:27:54,280 --> 01:27:56,759
Speaker 1: about last year twenty nineteen, where they went on opening

1711
01:27:56,840 --> 01:27:59,240
Speaker 1: Day out to play the Jets in MetLife Stadium, and

1712
01:27:59,280 --> 01:28:01,519
Speaker 1: the next week they went right back to MetLife Stadium

1713
01:28:01,520 --> 01:28:03,600
Speaker 1: and beat the Giants in the same place. It's a

1714
01:28:03,680 --> 01:28:06,800
Speaker 1: huge benefit going getting into a routine. Football players are

1715
01:28:06,800 --> 01:28:11,360
Speaker 1: really creatures of habit and to go out just you know,

1716
01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:13,920
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks later, make the exact same trip

1717
01:28:13,960 --> 01:28:15,719
Speaker 1: and the only difference is going to be the uniforms

1718
01:28:15,720 --> 01:28:17,960
Speaker 1: of the other team. That's going to be a huge

1719
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:19,400
Speaker 1: step for them. I think it's gonna be a huge

1720
01:28:19,400 --> 01:28:21,600
Speaker 1: boost for them. And think about the Niners. This is

1721
01:28:21,600 --> 01:28:24,640
Speaker 1: a home game for them, and you know, certainly they

1722
01:28:24,640 --> 01:28:27,240
Speaker 1: don't have fans in their stands, but they're gonna be

1723
01:28:27,360 --> 01:28:29,719
Speaker 1: in Arizona a team they're gonna be in a different

1724
01:28:29,720 --> 01:28:31,880
Speaker 1: locker room in arizon will be in the home locker

1725
01:28:31,960 --> 01:28:34,720
Speaker 1: room in Arizona, not their regular visiting locker room. That's

1726
01:28:34,720 --> 01:28:36,680
Speaker 1: where the Bills will be, So it'll be more of

1727
01:28:36,720 --> 01:28:38,680
Speaker 1: a road game. For the Niners than it will be

1728
01:28:38,760 --> 01:28:41,080
Speaker 1: for the Bills after you know, just two weeks where

1729
01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:44,000
Speaker 1: the Bills played there. Yeah, that's really too and true.

1730
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:46,000
Speaker 1: It may feel like a more of a home game

1731
01:28:46,040 --> 01:28:48,320
Speaker 1: for the forty nine Ers the following home game that

1732
01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:50,479
Speaker 1: they have, but yeah, this is going to be their

1733
01:28:50,520 --> 01:28:54,679
Speaker 1: first home game technically in that stadium, and the Bills

1734
01:28:54,720 --> 01:28:57,599
Speaker 1: are headed back there. Hopefully they can do right there.

1735
01:28:57,640 --> 01:28:59,320
Speaker 1: You know, we don't. We didn't like the way that

1736
01:28:59,360 --> 01:29:02,559
Speaker 1: the game shop when they played against the Cardinals with

1737
01:29:02,600 --> 01:29:05,840
Speaker 1: the hail murray. Hopefully they can't exercise those demons, do

1738
01:29:05,920 --> 01:29:09,200
Speaker 1: the right thing. Maybe maybe bring some sage out onto

1739
01:29:09,200 --> 01:29:11,880
Speaker 1: the field before the game, make sure everything is good

1740
01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:14,880
Speaker 1: and well so that nothing like that happens again. In

1741
01:29:14,920 --> 01:29:18,479
Speaker 1: the end zone, Steve Taskermatic glam talking about what our

1742
01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:20,920
Speaker 1: biggest takeaway from the Bills win over the Chargers. You

1743
01:29:20,920 --> 01:29:22,840
Speaker 1: can call us at eight oh three five fifty or

1744
01:29:22,880 --> 01:29:25,439
Speaker 1: one eight eight fifty two five fifty, or you can

1745
01:29:25,479 --> 01:29:29,519
Speaker 1: tweet at us at one Bills Live. And I want

1746
01:29:29,520 --> 01:29:31,960
Speaker 1: to get your take on this because this game had happened.

1747
01:29:32,000 --> 01:29:34,760
Speaker 1: Everybody's a little bit down because of the turnovers and

1748
01:29:34,800 --> 01:29:36,120
Speaker 1: how it kind of went a little bit off the

1749
01:29:36,240 --> 01:29:38,200
Speaker 1: rails and late in that game, but you know it's

1750
01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:41,519
Speaker 1: still a ten point when Marty says this. The defense

1751
01:29:41,520 --> 01:29:45,280
Speaker 1: and run game were impressive yesterday. One potential benefit from

1752
01:29:45,439 --> 01:29:50,040
Speaker 1: defense defensive injuries this year is we'll have more flexibility

1753
01:29:50,160 --> 01:29:52,960
Speaker 1: as the year goes on. They made Herbert uncomfortable all

1754
01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:55,519
Speaker 1: day with pressure. And by the way, the Chargers could

1755
01:29:55,600 --> 01:30:00,479
Speaker 1: really could be really good, but they're coaching ouch and

1756
01:30:00,600 --> 01:30:04,880
Speaker 1: they Anthony Lynn took a lot of arrows yesterday. The

1757
01:30:04,880 --> 01:30:08,240
Speaker 1: media was all over him about his decision not to

1758
01:30:08,240 --> 01:30:10,559
Speaker 1: take a field goal. There's about eight or nine minutes

1759
01:30:10,640 --> 01:30:13,960
Speaker 1: left and they were fourth and short and with a

1760
01:30:15,080 --> 01:30:18,559
Speaker 1: medium to long field goal certainly within range that they

1761
01:30:18,600 --> 01:30:20,519
Speaker 1: could come out and kick a field goal and go

1762
01:30:20,600 --> 01:30:24,840
Speaker 1: down seven with that time left, and they decided not

1763
01:30:24,880 --> 01:30:27,320
Speaker 1: to kick the field field goal to go for it

1764
01:30:27,439 --> 01:30:29,680
Speaker 1: on fourth down. They did not get it. They come

1765
01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:32,280
Speaker 1: away with absolutely nothing in a game that's getting shorter

1766
01:30:32,320 --> 01:30:36,800
Speaker 1: and shorter by the minute, and that decision just did

1767
01:30:36,840 --> 01:30:38,880
Speaker 1: not hold a lot of water for me. Their decision

1768
01:30:38,880 --> 01:30:40,439
Speaker 1: to go for it on fourth and short instead of

1769
01:30:40,479 --> 01:30:42,599
Speaker 1: taking the points. They knew what they would need any

1770
01:30:42,680 --> 01:30:45,840
Speaker 1: way down the road. Yeah, a couple of decisions there

1771
01:30:45,880 --> 01:30:47,720
Speaker 1: towards the end of the game and throughout the game.

1772
01:30:47,800 --> 01:30:50,840
Speaker 1: On the Charger's end of things, we're a little bit questionable,

1773
01:30:51,680 --> 01:30:54,040
Speaker 1: something that you don't want to see. Probably in week twelve.

1774
01:30:54,080 --> 01:30:57,360
Speaker 1: You're already halfway through the season, and to have those

1775
01:30:57,439 --> 01:31:00,959
Speaker 1: question marks on calls that should pretty much be already decided,

1776
01:31:01,760 --> 01:31:04,720
Speaker 1: not good on them. But in terms of the defensive

1777
01:31:04,760 --> 01:31:08,880
Speaker 1: injuries this year and the flexibility that that gives them, yeah,

1778
01:31:08,960 --> 01:31:11,760
Speaker 1: I mean I would love Matt Milano being in right

1779
01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:14,400
Speaker 1: now and being healthy. I would love this defense to

1780
01:31:14,479 --> 01:31:16,920
Speaker 1: stay healthy the rest of the season. But much like

1781
01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:19,799
Speaker 1: the offensive line, the way they've had to shift things around,

1782
01:31:20,160 --> 01:31:22,320
Speaker 1: I think it does bode well for them down the

1783
01:31:22,360 --> 01:31:25,240
Speaker 1: line when when you could have more injuries pop up

1784
01:31:25,360 --> 01:31:28,360
Speaker 1: or hopefully not any more positive tests, but have something

1785
01:31:28,400 --> 01:31:31,160
Speaker 1: like that pop up, when you have guys play out

1786
01:31:31,160 --> 01:31:33,680
Speaker 1: of position, when you have guys who don't usually play

1787
01:31:33,760 --> 01:31:36,280
Speaker 1: together play together. At the end of the day, I

1788
01:31:36,280 --> 01:31:38,920
Speaker 1: think it just helps make their connections stronger. The more

1789
01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:41,639
Speaker 1: comfortable they get on the field, the more comfortable they

1790
01:31:41,640 --> 01:31:45,400
Speaker 1: feel with each other. With so many new faces on defense, really,

1791
01:31:45,760 --> 01:31:47,920
Speaker 1: so I think they're hitting the right stride right now

1792
01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:51,160
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker along with Matty Glad. We're here till three o'clock.

1793
01:31:51,640 --> 01:31:53,040
Speaker 1: Glad you joined us. You can give us a call

1794
01:31:53,080 --> 01:31:55,160
Speaker 1: at eight o three oh five fifty or tweet at

1795
01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:59,120
Speaker 1: us at at one Bills Live. Also, you're gonna take

1796
01:31:59,120 --> 01:32:01,280
Speaker 1: a break and come back. We're gonna hear from guys

1797
01:32:01,280 --> 01:32:03,360
Speaker 1: in the locker room post game. We've got some sound

01:32:03,400 --> 01:32:06,920
Speaker 1: from Josh Allen. We've got sound from Dion Dockins, Gabe Davis,

1799
01:32:06,920 --> 01:32:09,040
Speaker 1: Sean McDermot, and Micah Hyde. We'll give that to you

1800
01:32:09,200 --> 01:32:10,760
Speaker 1: right after the top of the hour. This is One

1801
01:32:10,840 --> 01:32:18,479
Speaker 1: Bills Live on Buffalo Bill's Radio. Welcome back to one

1802
01:32:18,479 --> 01:32:21,439
Speaker 1: of those live chiefs Asker Maddie glab with you for

1803
01:32:21,479 --> 01:32:25,320
Speaker 1: another hour. We have talked to Eric Wood earlier in

1804
01:32:25,320 --> 01:32:28,280
Speaker 1: the show. We've also had Maddie give her Maddie Awards

1805
01:32:28,560 --> 01:32:30,320
Speaker 1: for a bunch of stuff going on around the league,

1806
01:32:30,439 --> 01:32:32,439
Speaker 1: in college football, and of course in the Bills twenty

1807
01:32:32,439 --> 01:32:35,639
Speaker 1: seven seventeen win yesterday over the Chargers. We're gonna take

1808
01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:38,800
Speaker 1: you inside the locker room. This postgame soundbites are part

1809
01:32:38,800 --> 01:32:40,559
Speaker 1: of our around the Locker Room segment, brought to you

1810
01:32:40,600 --> 01:32:44,120
Speaker 1: by Connect Life Connect, Life, Blood and Order, Blood and

1811
01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:48,280
Speaker 1: Organ Donor Network. Maddie's a lot of these soundbites, and

1812
01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:50,679
Speaker 1: you know, because the media goes into the locker room

1813
01:32:50,920 --> 01:32:54,120
Speaker 1: and they ask these guys exactly the questions that are

1814
01:32:54,200 --> 01:32:57,040
Speaker 1: driving fans crazy about the game. And we'll start off

1815
01:32:57,080 --> 01:33:00,680
Speaker 1: with Josh Allen. Certainly it wasn't beauty to full this win,

1816
01:33:00,760 --> 01:33:02,920
Speaker 1: but it was pretty convincing a ten point win in

1817
01:33:02,920 --> 01:33:04,880
Speaker 1: the league where a lot of games are decided by

1818
01:33:04,920 --> 01:33:08,000
Speaker 1: one score or less. This is what Josh and Josh

1819
01:33:08,040 --> 01:33:11,920
Speaker 1: Allen had to say right after the game about the win. Yeah,

1820
01:33:11,960 --> 01:33:14,800
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's obviously it's a sign of a

1821
01:33:14,800 --> 01:33:16,800
Speaker 1: good team. When one side of the ball is not

1822
01:33:17,600 --> 01:33:19,880
Speaker 1: doing their job, either the other side can pick it up.

1823
01:33:20,400 --> 01:33:22,600
Speaker 1: It's a three phase game, and like I said, I

1824
01:33:22,640 --> 01:33:25,240
Speaker 1: think we want two of those phases today. And I

1825
01:33:25,280 --> 01:33:27,479
Speaker 1: wouldn't say we lost on the offensive side, but there's

1826
01:33:27,520 --> 01:33:29,240
Speaker 1: plenty of opportunities that we had that we didn't take

1827
01:33:29,240 --> 01:33:32,639
Speaker 1: advantage of. Yeah, and that was you know him, he knew,

1828
01:33:33,439 --> 01:33:35,280
Speaker 1: I think, and I know this is a player you

1829
01:33:35,360 --> 01:33:37,200
Speaker 1: feel it more so than the fan to do you

1830
01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:39,200
Speaker 1: know exactly what happened. And they they've got to be

1831
01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:42,160
Speaker 1: kicking themselves over dropping the ball three times in the

1832
01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:44,960
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Yeah, well, it wasn't it like these guys

1833
01:33:44,960 --> 01:33:49,320
Speaker 1: were elated or anything on Zoom after the game, just

1834
01:33:49,400 --> 01:33:52,759
Speaker 1: like they are after every game. They're very down to earth,

1835
01:33:53,000 --> 01:33:56,479
Speaker 1: low key, humble, whether it's a big win or a loss.

1836
01:33:56,600 --> 01:33:59,559
Speaker 1: But they definitely knew they could have done a lot

1837
01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:02,360
Speaker 1: more on the field to run up the score a

1838
01:34:02,400 --> 01:34:04,800
Speaker 1: little bit more, just to have themselves in a better

1839
01:34:04,840 --> 01:34:08,200
Speaker 1: position in the fourth quarter. There. Hopefully they'll learn from it.

1840
01:34:08,240 --> 01:34:11,120
Speaker 1: They practiced it this week and they can get better

1841
01:34:11,120 --> 01:34:13,600
Speaker 1: against the forty nine ers. Yeah, they came out of

1842
01:34:13,600 --> 01:34:14,960
Speaker 1: this game. They knew they were gonna be a little

1843
01:34:15,080 --> 01:34:17,000
Speaker 1: nicked up. Cody Ford was put on IR for the

1844
01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:19,400
Speaker 1: season and John Brown was put on IR for the

1845
01:34:19,439 --> 01:34:22,400
Speaker 1: next three games starting with yesterday, so they knew they

1846
01:34:22,400 --> 01:34:24,200
Speaker 1: were going to have to rely on some other guys.

1847
01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:26,439
Speaker 1: Gabe Davis kind of stepped to the forefront, and Josh

1848
01:34:26,439 --> 01:34:29,240
Speaker 1: Allen was asked about the rookie wide receiver. He was

1849
01:34:29,320 --> 01:34:33,439
Speaker 1: fantastic today. I don't expect anything less from him. He's

1850
01:34:33,479 --> 01:34:35,439
Speaker 1: a He's a guy that's always willing to put the

1851
01:34:35,479 --> 01:34:38,160
Speaker 1: team first and do whatever it takes and you saw

1852
01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:41,680
Speaker 1: that today. So he's just one of those guys that

1853
01:34:41,800 --> 01:34:43,720
Speaker 1: he's obviously young, but he plays a lot older than

1854
01:34:43,760 --> 01:34:46,320
Speaker 1: what he is, does the right things on and off

1855
01:34:46,360 --> 01:34:49,000
Speaker 1: the field, and you know he's gonna he's gonna be

1856
01:34:49,040 --> 01:34:51,720
Speaker 1: really good in this league for a long time. Yeah,

1857
01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:54,679
Speaker 1: I think he's right. Gabe Davis has been the reason

1858
01:34:54,720 --> 01:34:56,320
Speaker 1: that the Bills have been able to go four wide.

1859
01:34:56,320 --> 01:34:58,240
Speaker 1: In fact, he may be the reason they decided to

1860
01:34:58,280 --> 01:35:01,320
Speaker 1: go four wide so much early in the season when

1861
01:35:01,320 --> 01:35:03,960
Speaker 1: everybody was healthy, John Brown was out there, Gabe Davis

1862
01:35:04,000 --> 01:35:06,240
Speaker 1: took a lot of snaps as the fourth wide receiver,

1863
01:35:06,800 --> 01:35:09,240
Speaker 1: really put defenses in a bind, and the Bills got

1864
01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:12,120
Speaker 1: off to that fast start because of it. I think, yeah,

1865
01:35:12,120 --> 01:35:15,200
Speaker 1: the Bills are so lucky for getting Gabriel Davis where

1866
01:35:15,200 --> 01:35:17,439
Speaker 1: they got him in this draft. And I remember in

1867
01:35:17,520 --> 01:35:21,400
Speaker 1: training camp and when we were seeing the first few

1868
01:35:21,520 --> 01:35:25,240
Speaker 1: days of Gabriel Davis and you're doing double takes, like

1869
01:35:25,320 --> 01:35:27,599
Speaker 1: what this is the type of receiver that they got.

1870
01:35:27,680 --> 01:35:31,840
Speaker 1: He's so good, And the coaches and Brandon Bean were like, yes,

1871
01:35:32,080 --> 01:35:34,040
Speaker 1: you know, he's gonna be good for us. But he's

1872
01:35:34,040 --> 01:35:36,120
Speaker 1: a rookie trying to play it down and here we

1873
01:35:36,200 --> 01:35:38,559
Speaker 1: see him just balling out and in his first year

1874
01:35:39,040 --> 01:35:42,040
Speaker 1: in the NFL, a lot more to come from him.

1875
01:35:42,080 --> 01:35:45,519
Speaker 1: And he is so chilled too. When he scores a touchdown,

1876
01:35:45,560 --> 01:35:48,200
Speaker 1: that guy doesn't celebrate. He just gives the ball back

1877
01:35:48,240 --> 01:35:50,599
Speaker 1: to the ref and heads to the sideline. But in

1878
01:35:50,680 --> 01:35:54,880
Speaker 1: practices he's dancing all over the field. Yeah, it really

1879
01:35:55,000 --> 01:35:57,519
Speaker 1: was quite the day Gabe Davis. They needed him, but

1880
01:35:57,520 --> 01:36:00,640
Speaker 1: they also got a huge, huge contract aribution from the

1881
01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:02,519
Speaker 1: run game. We remember they ran for one hundred and

1882
01:36:02,600 --> 01:36:05,400
Speaker 1: ninety yards against the New England Patriots earlier in the season.

1883
01:36:05,439 --> 01:36:07,679
Speaker 1: They were looking to do that. They had said time

1884
01:36:07,680 --> 01:36:09,400
Speaker 1: and again during the bye week they were going to

1885
01:36:09,479 --> 01:36:11,680
Speaker 1: take a long, hard look at the running game and

1886
01:36:11,720 --> 01:36:13,600
Speaker 1: they got a done net. They had one hundred and

1887
01:36:13,640 --> 01:36:16,840
Speaker 1: seventy two net yards rushing against the Chargers, and Josh

1888
01:36:16,880 --> 01:36:20,439
Speaker 1: Allen talked about the contribution from the running game. Yeah,

1889
01:36:20,439 --> 01:36:23,599
Speaker 1: our guys did a great job. I don't know these

1890
01:36:23,600 --> 01:36:25,680
Speaker 1: stats on the rushing, but I think well over one

1891
01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:29,000
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards, um, you know, Zach and then

1892
01:36:29,240 --> 01:36:33,040
Speaker 1: Motor carried the ball extremely well. They ran hard. You know,

1893
01:36:33,040 --> 01:36:35,600
Speaker 1: when my numbers called I gotta I gotta make some

1894
01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:37,439
Speaker 1: plays too. But our guys did a good job blocking

1895
01:36:37,520 --> 01:36:39,840
Speaker 1: up front. And uh again you put the ball in

1896
01:36:40,479 --> 01:36:43,519
Speaker 1: your back's hands and let them do things, and um,

1897
01:36:43,640 --> 01:36:47,559
Speaker 1: they're they're great today. Yeah, Josh Allen on the running game.

1898
01:36:47,600 --> 01:36:49,960
Speaker 1: And it's true his number is not a call. I

1899
01:36:49,960 --> 01:36:52,200
Speaker 1: mentioned this on the broadcast. You see Josh Allen ran

1900
01:36:52,280 --> 01:36:55,680
Speaker 1: the quarterback draw once or twice yesterday. You see him

1901
01:36:55,760 --> 01:36:59,240
Speaker 1: run at a quarterback sneak gone short yardage plays. But man,

1902
01:36:59,560 --> 01:37:01,840
Speaker 1: they are not asking him to carry the rock like

1903
01:37:01,880 --> 01:37:03,760
Speaker 1: they once did as a young quarterback. I think they

1904
01:37:04,160 --> 01:37:07,120
Speaker 1: know now he's more effective in the pocket throwing it.

1905
01:37:08,080 --> 01:37:11,040
Speaker 1: I think that just speaks to his progression to as

1906
01:37:11,040 --> 01:37:15,040
Speaker 1: a quarterback. To see his stats change so much in

1907
01:37:15,080 --> 01:37:18,200
Speaker 1: that category running the football from his first year to

1908
01:37:18,280 --> 01:37:21,439
Speaker 1: his second year to now and just see, you know,

1909
01:37:21,479 --> 01:37:24,480
Speaker 1: those yards kind of go over to the passing category

1910
01:37:24,560 --> 01:37:28,960
Speaker 1: of things. And hats off to Zack Moss and Devin Singletary.

1911
01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:32,960
Speaker 1: Zach Moss average over six and a half yards per carry.

1912
01:37:33,240 --> 01:37:36,880
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary was almost seven and a half yards per carry.

1913
01:37:36,920 --> 01:37:38,439
Speaker 1: I want to say, that's what you want to see

1914
01:37:38,479 --> 01:37:41,639
Speaker 1: out of your running backs. Guys who can get more

1915
01:37:41,680 --> 01:37:44,240
Speaker 1: than five yards a carry. When you have two players

1916
01:37:44,280 --> 01:37:45,920
Speaker 1: that can do that in a game, you know you're

1917
01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:48,400
Speaker 1: in a good place. Yeah, I agree with you. And

1918
01:37:49,439 --> 01:37:51,200
Speaker 1: you know, one of the things that happened yesterday, not

1919
01:37:51,240 --> 01:37:53,360
Speaker 1: only Josh Allen Rana, but he had to He tried

1920
01:37:53,360 --> 01:37:57,479
Speaker 1: to improvise at one point and got caught by Joey Boza,

1921
01:37:57,600 --> 01:37:59,760
Speaker 1: got spun around. One of the heart stopping moments of

1922
01:37:59,800 --> 01:38:02,400
Speaker 1: the game was when Josh Allen went down and stayed down.

1923
01:38:02,479 --> 01:38:03,960
Speaker 1: It looked like he was hurting it. You didn't know

1924
01:38:04,000 --> 01:38:06,080
Speaker 1: how bad it was, but he was not going to

1925
01:38:06,160 --> 01:38:08,599
Speaker 1: get up right away. The trainers had to come out.

1926
01:38:08,680 --> 01:38:11,080
Speaker 1: Everything stopped, and I think a lot of Bill's hearts stopped,

1927
01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:14,200
Speaker 1: and you didn't know how bad it was gonna be.

1928
01:38:14,400 --> 01:38:17,000
Speaker 1: It turned out he was back in after one play

1929
01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:20,879
Speaker 1: and his left tackle standing there and watching and everybody

1930
01:38:20,880 --> 01:38:23,160
Speaker 1: takes a queue from this guy. At quarterback. Maddie and

1931
01:38:23,280 --> 01:38:26,200
Speaker 1: Dion Dawkins had this to say about Josh Allen shaking

1932
01:38:26,240 --> 01:38:29,320
Speaker 1: off that hurt and shaking off the turnovers as well.

1933
01:38:31,080 --> 01:38:35,639
Speaker 1: It's actually like mind blowing, like how strong that kid

1934
01:38:35,760 --> 01:38:38,920
Speaker 1: is like most quarterbacks, Like what it just said, I'm

1935
01:38:38,960 --> 01:38:41,479
Speaker 1: gonna just come back and next week I'm gonna fix

1936
01:38:41,760 --> 01:38:44,960
Speaker 1: whatever it is, and you know, and keep this thing pushing.

1937
01:38:45,000 --> 01:38:49,040
Speaker 1: But the kid is special man, and he consistently shows

1938
01:38:49,040 --> 01:38:52,519
Speaker 1: it week in and week out. He's the best athlete

1939
01:38:52,560 --> 01:38:56,240
Speaker 1: honestly I've ever been around for his size and for

1940
01:38:57,120 --> 01:39:01,759
Speaker 1: what he does. And you know, we have an angel

1941
01:39:02,200 --> 01:39:05,639
Speaker 1: on our team and Josh is that and he shows

1942
01:39:05,640 --> 01:39:09,320
Speaker 1: it consistently every day. Yeah, it's funny you got an

1943
01:39:09,360 --> 01:39:11,360
Speaker 1: angel on their team. I don't I don't know I'm

1944
01:39:11,400 --> 01:39:17,280
Speaker 1: gonna go that far. You know, when you've got your

1945
01:39:17,320 --> 01:39:22,240
Speaker 1: your teammates attributing supernatural you know, characteristics, do you know

1946
01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:23,840
Speaker 1: you've you've got him right where you want them. I

1947
01:39:23,840 --> 01:39:27,400
Speaker 1: guess Josh Allen showed his left tackle a lot. Maybe

1948
01:39:27,400 --> 01:39:30,680
Speaker 1: you've got an angel watching over Josh Allen so that

1949
01:39:30,720 --> 01:39:33,000
Speaker 1: he was able to get back in the game there.

1950
01:39:33,040 --> 01:39:36,839
Speaker 1: But I think also just Josh Allen being able to

1951
01:39:36,920 --> 01:39:39,960
Speaker 1: go back into the game and show his toughness in

1952
01:39:40,080 --> 01:39:43,600
Speaker 1: moments like that. He probably doesn't realize it, but that

1953
01:39:43,720 --> 01:39:46,519
Speaker 1: does so much for his entire team in the moment.

1954
01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:49,360
Speaker 1: I don't think he realizes that. He made me realize it.

1955
01:39:49,479 --> 01:39:51,960
Speaker 1: After the game, or you know, just from year to

1956
01:39:52,080 --> 01:39:55,920
Speaker 1: year building relationships with his teammates. But the way that

1957
01:39:56,000 --> 01:39:58,519
Speaker 1: he plays on the field, the toughness that he brings,

1958
01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:02,559
Speaker 1: the physicality that he brings, it gets the whole team

1959
01:40:02,720 --> 01:40:04,880
Speaker 1: so pumped up to play for him. And I think

1960
01:40:04,920 --> 01:40:09,479
Speaker 1: that's one off awesome thing about our quarterback Josh Allen. Yeah,

1961
01:40:09,520 --> 01:40:11,439
Speaker 1: I think, and I think his team rallies around him.

1962
01:40:11,439 --> 01:40:14,000
Speaker 1: They like seeing it. He shows up every day and

1963
01:40:14,160 --> 01:40:16,839
Speaker 1: he doesn't take too much of the credit and he's

1964
01:40:16,880 --> 01:40:18,720
Speaker 1: always willing to take the blame, and I think that

1965
01:40:18,760 --> 01:40:20,759
Speaker 1: plays a lot in the locker room. Guys. The game's

1966
01:40:20,760 --> 01:40:23,639
Speaker 1: hard and everybody's gonna make mistakes. And when you own

1967
01:40:23,680 --> 01:40:25,840
Speaker 1: your mistakes and you're one of the key players on

1968
01:40:25,880 --> 01:40:28,679
Speaker 1: the team, that trickles down to everybody else take owning

1969
01:40:28,720 --> 01:40:31,400
Speaker 1: their own mistakes and everybody gets better as result of it.

1970
01:40:31,479 --> 01:40:33,920
Speaker 1: Josh Allen has done that as well. Earlier in the show,

1971
01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:37,519
Speaker 1: we had the Maddie Awards and the offensive MVP for

1972
01:40:37,600 --> 01:40:40,160
Speaker 1: Maddie Glab this week was Gabe Davis and this is

1973
01:40:40,160 --> 01:40:43,120
Speaker 1: what Gabe Davis had to say about his touchdown reception

1974
01:40:43,240 --> 01:40:48,439
Speaker 1: from none other than Cole Beasley. It was great. I

1975
01:40:48,520 --> 01:40:50,240
Speaker 1: knew it was gonna work. You know, we run a

1976
01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:53,920
Speaker 1: lot of those those bubble screens, So as soon as

1977
01:40:53,960 --> 01:40:56,200
Speaker 1: I've seen thirty five shoo, I just knew the ball

1978
01:40:56,280 --> 01:40:58,439
Speaker 1: was coming to me. And you know, Cole is able

1979
01:40:58,479 --> 01:41:00,519
Speaker 1: to you know, put a dark you know, he said

1980
01:41:00,520 --> 01:41:01,960
Speaker 1: he threw it kind of hard to get it in there,

1981
01:41:01,960 --> 01:41:03,320
Speaker 1: but it was, you know, he do it kind of.

1982
01:41:03,400 --> 01:41:06,080
Speaker 1: It was a softball. It was an easy catching. Glad

1983
01:41:06,080 --> 01:41:11,240
Speaker 1: we could make that connection. Yeah, Cole Beasley coming out,

1984
01:41:11,720 --> 01:41:13,800
Speaker 1: squaring up and throwing that ball out there after a

1985
01:41:13,880 --> 01:41:16,559
Speaker 1: backward pass by josh An the ball had to go backwards,

1986
01:41:16,560 --> 01:41:18,599
Speaker 1: which it did and it was pretty evident, and then

1987
01:41:18,640 --> 01:41:20,960
Speaker 1: Cole Beasley tucking it up, running a couple of steps

1988
01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:22,880
Speaker 1: and then pulling up and throwing it. It was really

1989
01:41:22,880 --> 01:41:25,280
Speaker 1: well executed. And I know it. It's like Gabe Davis

1990
01:41:25,280 --> 01:41:27,720
Speaker 1: said it, because I knew it was gonna work when

1991
01:41:27,720 --> 01:41:31,240
Speaker 1: they called it. And the thing you got to fight

1992
01:41:31,280 --> 01:41:34,360
Speaker 1: against is to take a short cut to the success

1993
01:41:34,439 --> 01:41:36,280
Speaker 1: that the play is gonna get. You have to be patient,

1994
01:41:36,560 --> 01:41:38,120
Speaker 1: run the route the way it's supposed to be run,

1995
01:41:38,160 --> 01:41:40,519
Speaker 1: otherwise it may not work. And of course it worked.

1996
01:41:40,520 --> 01:41:42,720
Speaker 1: A perfection for Gabe Davis standing by himself in the

1997
01:41:42,800 --> 01:41:45,839
Speaker 1: end zone. Yeah, and something like that that you practice

1998
01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:49,000
Speaker 1: in games. You may not be practicing a lot that week,

1999
01:41:49,080 --> 01:41:52,360
Speaker 1: but you you practice trick plays throughout the season, and

2000
01:41:52,439 --> 01:41:55,040
Speaker 1: you know you can plug him in in certain moments,

2001
01:41:55,640 --> 01:41:57,479
Speaker 1: and in a moment like that, when you know you've

2002
01:41:57,479 --> 01:41:59,880
Speaker 1: practiced something like that, you've got to be so freaking

2003
01:42:00,120 --> 01:42:02,240
Speaker 1: excited to run in and to be able to show

2004
01:42:02,280 --> 01:42:04,360
Speaker 1: that type of patience to let it play out the

2005
01:42:04,439 --> 01:42:07,040
Speaker 1: way the way it needed to play out. Says a

2006
01:42:07,040 --> 01:42:10,000
Speaker 1: lot about Cole Beasley and Gabriel Davis and Josh Allen,

2007
01:42:10,360 --> 01:42:13,240
Speaker 1: and that's spiraal that Cole Beasley through. He was asked

2008
01:42:13,280 --> 01:42:15,639
Speaker 1: about it after the game and he played it down

2009
01:42:15,680 --> 01:42:17,679
Speaker 1: and was like, yeah, you know, I threw really bad

2010
01:42:17,680 --> 01:42:19,960
Speaker 1: pass in practice, so I'm glad that one was right.

2011
01:42:20,200 --> 01:42:22,920
Speaker 1: It's a pretty great spiral by Cole Beasley. Yeah, it

2012
01:42:22,960 --> 01:42:25,200
Speaker 1: could be spun it pretty good. I was good. Always,

2013
01:42:25,240 --> 01:42:27,040
Speaker 1: it's always pays to make it look good when you

2014
01:42:27,040 --> 01:42:29,519
Speaker 1: get something done right, So that was Cole Beasley coming

2015
01:42:29,560 --> 01:42:31,519
Speaker 1: through like that as well. And you know one of

2016
01:42:31,560 --> 01:42:34,240
Speaker 1: the things about this game, as the Bills start into

2017
01:42:34,240 --> 01:42:36,479
Speaker 1: the final stretch, of the season with five games left

2018
01:42:36,560 --> 01:42:41,120
Speaker 1: or no, yeah, five games left, is that their defense

2019
01:42:41,160 --> 01:42:43,640
Speaker 1: has begun to emerge. That defense really showed up in

2020
01:42:43,640 --> 01:42:46,160
Speaker 1: a big way yesterday. The game has really changed when

2021
01:42:46,160 --> 01:42:50,559
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills, they scored twenty seven points offensively. But

2022
01:42:50,680 --> 01:42:52,600
Speaker 1: this year it's been a different story in the end

2023
01:42:52,640 --> 01:42:54,960
Speaker 1: around the NFL and the Bills defense now growing in

2024
01:42:55,080 --> 01:42:57,960
Speaker 1: and kind of cutting its own teeth, playing a little

2025
01:42:57,960 --> 01:42:59,400
Speaker 1: bit more like it did a year ago. And this

2026
01:42:59,439 --> 01:43:01,320
Speaker 1: is what Sean McDermott, head coach of the Bills, had

2027
01:43:01,320 --> 01:43:03,960
Speaker 1: to say on the defensive effort versus the Chargers. I

2028
01:43:04,000 --> 01:43:06,040
Speaker 1: thought lovely in the staff did a great job during

2029
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:09,200
Speaker 1: the week shaping a good game plan with good communication,

2030
01:43:09,240 --> 01:43:11,880
Speaker 1: and players embraced it and they spent a lot of

2031
01:43:11,880 --> 01:43:15,080
Speaker 1: time this week. That's a good offense, right, and they've

2032
01:43:15,080 --> 01:43:18,320
Speaker 1: been hot and with weapons all over. And then get

2033
01:43:18,360 --> 01:43:21,280
Speaker 1: Eckler back, I think was a big jolt for them

2034
01:43:21,360 --> 01:43:24,559
Speaker 1: and in a good way. And our guys most of

2035
01:43:24,560 --> 01:43:29,479
Speaker 1: the challenge. That was Sean McDermott. It was a big challenge.

2036
01:43:29,680 --> 01:43:32,439
Speaker 1: I thought this game a lot of people did. I

2037
01:43:32,479 --> 01:43:34,360
Speaker 1: thought the losing team in this game was going to

2038
01:43:34,400 --> 01:43:37,400
Speaker 1: score twenty seven points, not the winning team. The Bills

2039
01:43:37,520 --> 01:43:40,320
Speaker 1: won't beat the Chargers by ten by scoring the twenty seven,

2040
01:43:40,360 --> 01:43:44,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. And it's a due to the Bills defense,

2041
01:43:44,120 --> 01:43:47,920
Speaker 1: no question about it. It started earning the game. Herbert

2042
01:43:47,960 --> 01:43:50,720
Speaker 1: started out with three complete incompletions to begin the game,

2043
01:43:50,760 --> 01:43:52,320
Speaker 1: and you knew it was going to be a battle

2044
01:43:52,920 --> 01:43:56,000
Speaker 1: for the Chargers offensively all day, and the Bills held

2045
01:43:56,040 --> 01:43:59,240
Speaker 1: them at bay. Yeah, they started the game with the three.

2046
01:43:59,320 --> 01:44:02,200
Speaker 1: Now the Bills defense, and then the next couple of

2047
01:44:03,120 --> 01:44:06,800
Speaker 1: drives for the Charters offense. They scored early, and I

2048
01:44:06,880 --> 01:44:10,080
Speaker 1: remember I tweeted after the first possession or after the

2049
01:44:10,120 --> 01:44:11,720
Speaker 1: first three and out, I was like, I love the

2050
01:44:11,760 --> 01:44:13,960
Speaker 1: way this defense is playing right now. And then the

2051
01:44:14,040 --> 01:44:17,800
Speaker 1: Charters end up scoring. And I had like forty comments

2052
01:44:17,880 --> 01:44:20,799
Speaker 1: on my tweet of people being like, Oh, the defense sucks.

2053
01:44:20,800 --> 01:44:24,080
Speaker 1: Why aren't they playing better? Just wait, there's ebbs and

2054
01:44:24,200 --> 01:44:26,559
Speaker 1: flows in a game. The defense was able to get

2055
01:44:26,560 --> 01:44:29,679
Speaker 1: it right back on track. We are so quick to judge,

2056
01:44:29,680 --> 01:44:32,240
Speaker 1: we are so quick to type on our Twitter and

2057
01:44:32,720 --> 01:44:35,920
Speaker 1: be angry about it. Just wait, hold on a second.

2058
01:44:35,960 --> 01:44:39,759
Speaker 1: They had a great game at the end of the day. Yeah,

2059
01:44:39,800 --> 01:44:43,479
Speaker 1: they did, And it came down to Really they made

2060
01:44:43,479 --> 01:44:46,280
Speaker 1: plays all day, They made tackles for losses. They pressured

2061
01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:49,080
Speaker 1: Herbert consistently, and I think that was one of the

2062
01:44:49,160 --> 01:44:52,080
Speaker 1: things that really turned the tide in their favor. Herbert

2063
01:44:52,120 --> 01:44:54,759
Speaker 1: could not hang onto the ball. They didn't really stretch

2064
01:44:54,800 --> 01:44:56,840
Speaker 1: the field vertically very much. You know, you can say

2065
01:44:56,840 --> 01:44:58,280
Speaker 1: they got the hail Mary at the end, and they

2066
01:44:58,280 --> 01:45:01,200
Speaker 1: even tried two in a row, and the one that

2067
01:45:01,320 --> 01:45:04,160
Speaker 1: was a catch not catch offensive pass interference down the

2068
01:45:04,200 --> 01:45:06,400
Speaker 1: far side, and then you know, the hail mary they

2069
01:45:06,400 --> 01:45:08,320
Speaker 1: threw up short of the end zone that led to

2070
01:45:08,400 --> 01:45:11,840
Speaker 1: them being down close to end the game. But they

2071
01:45:11,840 --> 01:45:14,680
Speaker 1: didn't really get a chance to do that consistently. Everything

2072
01:45:14,800 --> 01:45:17,800
Speaker 1: had to be out of Herbert's hands very quickly, and

2073
01:45:17,880 --> 01:45:21,320
Speaker 1: that was really not something I think that the Chargers

2074
01:45:21,320 --> 01:45:24,160
Speaker 1: wanted to do. They want to stretch the field vertically

2075
01:45:24,200 --> 01:45:26,439
Speaker 1: with Mike Williams and Keenan Allen, and the Bills wouldn't

2076
01:45:26,520 --> 01:45:27,960
Speaker 1: let them do it with their pressure. That was a

2077
01:45:27,960 --> 01:45:32,840
Speaker 1: brilliant game plan by Leslie Fraser and the team you know,

2078
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:35,120
Speaker 1: executed it to perfection. And one of the things that's

2079
01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:37,519
Speaker 1: a byproduct of pressure a lot of times is turnovers

2080
01:45:37,520 --> 01:45:41,280
Speaker 1: and safety Micah Hyde was asked about the defense putting

2081
01:45:41,280 --> 01:45:43,439
Speaker 1: an emphasis on taking the ball away, and here's what

2082
01:45:43,439 --> 01:45:46,120
Speaker 1: the Bills safety had to say about that. Oh, you know,

2083
01:45:46,160 --> 01:45:49,120
Speaker 1: that's been the mindset the whole year and unfortunate unfortunately,

2084
01:45:49,320 --> 01:45:52,200
Speaker 1: you know, it's not always like that, but the mindset

2085
01:45:52,320 --> 01:45:54,000
Speaker 1: never changes once we're out there. You know, it's it's

2086
01:45:54,000 --> 01:45:56,760
Speaker 1: all about taking the ball away, you know, trying to

2087
01:45:56,800 --> 01:46:00,479
Speaker 1: get the ball back to the offensive with good field physicians. Um,

2088
01:46:00,560 --> 01:46:04,519
Speaker 1: I think that we got a fourth down stop. Davis

2089
01:46:04,560 --> 01:46:07,560
Speaker 1: Kent would with a huge play. Um. You know, it

2090
01:46:07,680 --> 01:46:09,760
Speaker 1: was just the defense was making plays in the second

2091
01:46:09,800 --> 01:46:11,120
Speaker 1: half and that's what we needed, you know, as you

2092
01:46:11,120 --> 01:46:14,360
Speaker 1: can tell, Um, you know it was it was close

2093
01:46:14,479 --> 01:46:16,240
Speaker 1: on what it needed to be. Towards the end of

2094
01:46:16,280 --> 01:46:18,639
Speaker 1: the game. You know, once again the balls in the air,

2095
01:46:20,160 --> 01:46:22,960
Speaker 1: we gotta final way to knock it down. Um, but

2096
01:46:23,200 --> 01:46:26,160
Speaker 1: we were able to escape in a wind. Yeah that's

2097
01:46:26,200 --> 01:46:27,880
Speaker 1: Mica hide and and you know it kind of feel

2098
01:46:27,960 --> 01:46:30,559
Speaker 1: like and it had that feel to it. He said, Well,

2099
01:46:30,600 --> 01:46:32,519
Speaker 1: we escaped with the wind. They beat him by ten,

2100
01:46:33,240 --> 01:46:36,200
Speaker 1: and they were like desperately trying to get get it

2101
01:46:36,200 --> 01:46:39,280
Speaker 1: to within three and get it to within seven. They

2102
01:46:39,360 --> 01:46:42,280
Speaker 1: passed up the chance to get it to within seven

2103
01:46:42,320 --> 01:46:44,479
Speaker 1: earlier in the fourth quarter, they got a break from

2104
01:46:44,479 --> 01:46:46,600
Speaker 1: a bad decision by the Chargers not to go for

2105
01:46:46,640 --> 01:46:47,920
Speaker 1: a few goal in and of time when they were

2106
01:46:47,960 --> 01:46:50,040
Speaker 1: a few goal range with a lot of time left

2107
01:46:50,080 --> 01:46:52,280
Speaker 1: on the clock, you know. And it really had that

2108
01:46:52,360 --> 01:46:54,920
Speaker 1: feel that the Bills were just clawing and scratching and

2109
01:46:55,200 --> 01:46:57,280
Speaker 1: fighting just to stay in the game. They were up

2110
01:46:57,280 --> 01:47:00,639
Speaker 1: by ten, they were up by ten, and offense had

2111
01:47:00,640 --> 01:47:04,040
Speaker 1: done nothing but stop themselves, you know. And you know,

2112
01:47:04,040 --> 01:47:06,360
Speaker 1: so if they got the ball back, yet every reason

2113
01:47:06,360 --> 01:47:08,080
Speaker 1: to think that the you know, the Bills are gonna

2114
01:47:08,080 --> 01:47:10,639
Speaker 1: be able to run that clock out with their running

2115
01:47:10,640 --> 01:47:12,880
Speaker 1: game or you know, convert a first down or two,

2116
01:47:12,880 --> 01:47:15,800
Speaker 1: and then the game was gonna be over. Let alone,

2117
01:47:15,800 --> 01:47:17,080
Speaker 1: the fact that it should have been over after the

2118
01:47:17,120 --> 01:47:19,439
Speaker 1: first hail, married down the sidelines, it was incomplete on

2119
01:47:19,439 --> 01:47:24,599
Speaker 1: a fourth down, all of that stuff just uh, you know,

2120
01:47:25,000 --> 01:47:27,880
Speaker 1: it had that weird feel of a game that didn't

2121
01:47:27,920 --> 01:47:30,680
Speaker 1: go well that you won comfortably, and that's that's an

2122
01:47:30,720 --> 01:47:35,080
Speaker 1: unusual situation, I think, right, mad. Yeah, Austin Ekeler had

2123
01:47:35,520 --> 01:47:38,960
Speaker 1: eighty five receiving yards, forty four yards on the ground.

2124
01:47:39,080 --> 01:47:42,439
Speaker 1: Hunter Henry had sixty seven yards. Keenan Allen only had

2125
01:47:43,760 --> 01:47:47,839
Speaker 1: forty receiving yards. And to be able to play against

2126
01:47:48,439 --> 01:47:53,400
Speaker 1: talented offensive weapons like those guys and a rookie quarterback

2127
01:47:53,439 --> 01:47:56,840
Speaker 1: who's averaging almost three hundred passing yards a game, and

2128
01:47:56,960 --> 01:47:59,519
Speaker 1: to be able to win that game by ten points,

2129
01:48:00,080 --> 01:48:03,080
Speaker 1: this defense should walk away feeling pretty good about the

2130
01:48:03,080 --> 01:48:05,360
Speaker 1: way they played in this game. Yeah. This post game

2131
01:48:05,400 --> 01:48:07,479
Speaker 1: sound bites are part of our around the Locker Room segment,

2132
01:48:07,520 --> 01:48:10,240
Speaker 1: brought to you by Connect Life Connect Life Blood and

2133
01:48:10,400 --> 01:48:15,160
Speaker 1: Ordered Blood and Organ Donor Network. Yeah, we've we've also

2134
01:48:15,200 --> 01:48:17,639
Speaker 1: been asking you, our listeners, what are your thoughts were?

2135
01:48:17,640 --> 01:48:20,800
Speaker 1: What were your big takeaways from the game? The Bills

2136
01:48:20,840 --> 01:48:23,040
Speaker 1: win over the Chargers, and you know, everybody kind of

2137
01:48:23,040 --> 01:48:25,200
Speaker 1: has that same thing once you get back, step back

2138
01:48:25,240 --> 01:48:27,400
Speaker 1: from the emotion of the game. You and I both

2139
01:48:27,439 --> 01:48:29,880
Speaker 1: said it. You walk out of that stadium or you

2140
01:48:29,880 --> 01:48:32,000
Speaker 1: turn off the TV after the game, you're thinking, man,

2141
01:48:32,040 --> 01:48:35,840
Speaker 1: oh man, we stunk, and then you look at it's

2142
01:48:35,880 --> 01:48:38,360
Speaker 1: like not so much. You know, I feel pretty good

2143
01:48:38,400 --> 01:48:42,559
Speaker 1: about this team. They didn't play anywhere near their best football.

2144
01:48:42,760 --> 01:48:45,080
Speaker 1: We've seen him play much better than they did yesterday

2145
01:48:45,400 --> 01:48:48,320
Speaker 1: throughout the season, and they won by ten points, and

2146
01:48:48,360 --> 01:48:50,439
Speaker 1: I think people know how hard it is to win

2147
01:48:50,479 --> 01:48:52,400
Speaker 1: games in the National Football League. There were a lot

2148
01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:55,040
Speaker 1: of people that had a lot of second thoughts about

2149
01:48:55,040 --> 01:48:58,439
Speaker 1: how the Chargers had played. They were a good football team,

2150
01:48:58,439 --> 01:49:01,080
Speaker 1: they were towns football team, losing a lot of close

2151
01:49:01,160 --> 01:49:03,920
Speaker 1: games a hand for a couple of games on the

2152
01:49:04,040 --> 01:49:07,519
Speaker 1: last play of the game they're losing. So the season

2153
01:49:07,520 --> 01:49:09,559
Speaker 1: could have been very different for a team like that.

2154
01:49:10,280 --> 01:49:13,439
Speaker 1: And so there was enough, you know, doubt there to

2155
01:49:13,520 --> 01:49:16,600
Speaker 1: give a lot of people some hesitation about how he

2156
01:49:16,840 --> 01:49:18,439
Speaker 1: get easy this game was going to be. And of

2157
01:49:18,439 --> 01:49:22,840
Speaker 1: course the Bills it walked away fumbling, bumbling, stumbling to

2158
01:49:22,880 --> 01:49:26,720
Speaker 1: a ten point win. It sets you up for a

2159
01:49:26,760 --> 01:49:31,320
Speaker 1: lot of optimism going forward, Yeah, it really doesn't. This

2160
01:49:31,600 --> 01:49:35,599
Speaker 1: Charters team, all their losses going into this game had

2161
01:49:35,640 --> 01:49:39,320
Speaker 1: come by only four point six points in average of

2162
01:49:39,360 --> 01:49:42,519
Speaker 1: four point six points, and so that says a lot

2163
01:49:42,560 --> 01:49:45,120
Speaker 1: about what they've been able to do with a rookie

2164
01:49:45,240 --> 01:49:48,280
Speaker 1: quarterback who's been playing out of his mind and all

2165
01:49:48,320 --> 01:49:51,160
Speaker 1: of his ten starts. And I thought it was also

2166
01:49:51,240 --> 01:49:54,240
Speaker 1: cool just to have Justin Herbert and Josh Allen play

2167
01:49:54,240 --> 01:49:57,439
Speaker 1: against each other. There's a stat that was like, it's

2168
01:49:57,479 --> 01:50:01,559
Speaker 1: the third time in Super Bowl Hit history that two

2169
01:50:01,680 --> 01:50:04,559
Speaker 1: quarterbacks who are twenty four or younger have met where

2170
01:50:04,560 --> 01:50:07,600
Speaker 1: their pastor rating is over one hundred. And so a

2171
01:50:07,680 --> 01:50:10,720
Speaker 1: special moment like that to have two younger quarterbacks who

2172
01:50:11,360 --> 01:50:16,599
Speaker 1: don't necessarily fit the mold of being like run heavy quarterbacks. Yes,

2173
01:50:16,720 --> 01:50:19,680
Speaker 1: Josh Allen was in his first two years, but you

2174
01:50:19,720 --> 01:50:24,280
Speaker 1: look at Lamar Jackson and Kyler Murray and Justin Herbert

2175
01:50:24,320 --> 01:50:28,080
Speaker 1: and Josh Allen are very different than those two quarterbacks.

2176
01:50:28,080 --> 01:50:31,400
Speaker 1: And Justin Herbert and Josh Allen are also very similar

2177
01:50:31,439 --> 01:50:35,040
Speaker 1: in size. These are two tall, huge running, two tall,

2178
01:50:35,120 --> 01:50:38,679
Speaker 1: huge quarterbacks in the league. And so I think stats

2179
01:50:38,760 --> 01:50:41,080
Speaker 1: like that in moments like that, and I love when

2180
01:50:41,120 --> 01:50:44,200
Speaker 1: things align like that on the schedule as you're you know,

2181
01:50:44,320 --> 01:50:46,759
Speaker 1: playing in week twelve or week five. Just a cool,

2182
01:50:46,920 --> 01:50:50,200
Speaker 1: cool moment, cool little tidbit there from the game. Everybody's

2183
01:50:50,200 --> 01:50:52,000
Speaker 1: got their own little thing that they took away from

2184
01:50:52,000 --> 01:50:53,679
Speaker 1: this game, no question. Now let's go to the tweet

2185
01:50:53,680 --> 01:50:55,519
Speaker 1: sheet and find out what you thought and what your

2186
01:50:55,520 --> 01:50:58,160
Speaker 1: takeaway was from it. The tweet sheet brought to you

2187
01:50:58,160 --> 01:51:01,320
Speaker 1: by Cork and Moving Systems, the official equipment moving company

2188
01:51:01,320 --> 01:51:03,920
Speaker 1: of the Buffalo Bills from CW. He says this, there's

2189
01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:08,160
Speaker 1: great play calling. Everyone hates penalties, interceptions and fumbles. But

2190
01:51:08,240 --> 01:51:10,680
Speaker 1: one thing that I see a lot is after a

2191
01:51:10,720 --> 01:51:13,919
Speaker 1: receiver catches the ball, he decides to lose the defender,

2192
01:51:14,280 --> 01:51:16,519
Speaker 1: so he starts to run backwards. Most of the time

2193
01:51:16,560 --> 01:51:19,160
Speaker 1: he ends up losing yardage. That happened to Steph Diggs

2194
01:51:19,160 --> 01:51:21,000
Speaker 1: a couple of times yesterday. I haven't seen that to

2195
01:51:21,080 --> 01:51:23,679
Speaker 1: be a thing that he does too much, but yesterday

2196
01:51:23,720 --> 01:51:27,720
Speaker 1: it happened a couple of times Steph Diggs officially, and

2197
01:51:27,720 --> 01:51:30,200
Speaker 1: it's unbelievable. They talk about it because that's what the

2198
01:51:30,280 --> 01:51:32,679
Speaker 1: Chargers wanted to do as well, like the Bills wanted

2199
01:51:32,720 --> 01:51:37,200
Speaker 1: to do against against Keenan Allen. Steph Diggs was held

2200
01:51:37,200 --> 01:51:40,960
Speaker 1: to zero targets in the first half. Now that doesn't

2201
01:51:41,040 --> 01:51:44,320
Speaker 1: really mean they didn't throw to him, because they did twice.

2202
01:51:44,560 --> 01:51:47,200
Speaker 1: One of them was a long play that didn't count

2203
01:51:47,240 --> 01:51:49,679
Speaker 1: as a play down. The sign as a pass interference,

2204
01:51:49,680 --> 01:51:51,840
Speaker 1: so that counts as no play that he drew the

2205
01:51:51,920 --> 01:51:53,960
Speaker 1: pass interference down and set him up for their first

2206
01:51:53,960 --> 01:51:58,519
Speaker 1: touchdown to Dawson Knox. Before that, he had a catch

2207
01:51:59,760 --> 01:52:02,559
Speaker 1: that went out of bounds, but it was negated by

2208
01:52:02,560 --> 01:52:05,000
Speaker 1: a double penalty and they offset and that didn't count

2209
01:52:05,000 --> 01:52:06,960
Speaker 1: as a play either. So he did get two balls

2210
01:52:06,960 --> 01:52:09,280
Speaker 1: thrown at him in the first half, but officially, because

2211
01:52:09,280 --> 01:52:12,679
Speaker 1: of the penalties on the plays, he was not credited

2212
01:52:12,680 --> 01:52:15,320
Speaker 1: with a target in the first half. They did get

2213
01:52:15,400 --> 01:52:17,840
Speaker 1: him involved for four catches in the catches in the

2214
01:52:17,840 --> 01:52:20,760
Speaker 1: second half, and he had and he did end up contributing,

2215
01:52:21,160 --> 01:52:23,960
Speaker 1: and it was his habit. He caught it and lost

2216
01:52:24,080 --> 01:52:26,880
Speaker 1: yardage a couple of times, trying to make something bigger happen.

2217
01:52:28,120 --> 01:52:30,599
Speaker 1: I can't say that that's a characteristic I would associate

2218
01:52:30,640 --> 01:52:33,639
Speaker 1: with him. But at this point of the season, Mattie,

2219
01:52:33,600 --> 01:52:34,840
Speaker 1: I don't know how you feel about it. He can

2220
01:52:34,880 --> 01:52:37,240
Speaker 1: do whatever he wants. If he didn't make a big play,

2221
01:52:37,439 --> 01:52:39,479
Speaker 1: take the chance if you want to and try and

2222
01:52:39,520 --> 01:52:42,559
Speaker 1: make a bigger play. Yeah. He finishes the day with

2223
01:52:42,720 --> 01:52:46,360
Speaker 1: seven receptions for thirty nine yards. Not his best performance,

2224
01:52:46,400 --> 01:52:49,639
Speaker 1: but still finding ways to help the team win, and

2225
01:52:50,080 --> 01:52:53,120
Speaker 1: stuff like that happens with receivers. But just the impact

2226
01:52:53,120 --> 01:52:55,400
Speaker 1: that he's been able to make so far this season,

2227
01:52:56,560 --> 01:53:00,360
Speaker 1: his receiving yards as a whole, his catches as a whole.

2228
01:53:00,520 --> 01:53:04,439
Speaker 1: I mean, the dudes had a great season for the Bills,

2229
01:53:04,520 --> 01:53:07,639
Speaker 1: and he's the reason why we're eight and three, one

2230
01:53:07,680 --> 01:53:12,479
Speaker 1: of the big reasons why. Yeah, I agree, And this

2231
01:53:12,600 --> 01:53:14,680
Speaker 1: is also one of the takeaways from Mike on the

2232
01:53:14,680 --> 01:53:17,160
Speaker 1: tweet sheet John Brown, he says, it's such an important

2233
01:53:17,200 --> 01:53:18,920
Speaker 1: part of this offense. With him on the field, no

2234
01:53:19,080 --> 01:53:22,040
Speaker 1: defense can take Diggs, Brown, Beasley and Davis out of

2235
01:53:22,040 --> 01:53:25,200
Speaker 1: the game. This helps the run and Allen Bill's identity

2236
01:53:25,240 --> 01:53:28,880
Speaker 1: as a passing team requires John Brown to be on

2237
01:53:28,920 --> 01:53:30,920
Speaker 1: the field. They did not throw the ball effectively, and

2238
01:53:30,920 --> 01:53:33,479
Speaker 1: there's been some talk on social media from some of

2239
01:53:33,479 --> 01:53:37,160
Speaker 1: the analysts Guy's writing articles about the difference that the

2240
01:53:37,200 --> 01:53:40,320
Speaker 1: team has offensively, the different identity it has when John

2241
01:53:40,360 --> 01:53:43,400
Speaker 1: Brown's not part of the equation. Josh Allen hasn't been effective.

2242
01:53:43,720 --> 01:53:47,080
Speaker 1: Defenses view this offense a lot differently without John Brown

2243
01:53:47,160 --> 01:53:52,160
Speaker 1: on the field, and it shows in the statistics. Yeah, definitely,

2244
01:53:52,240 --> 01:53:55,160
Speaker 1: John Brown is such an important asset to this team.

2245
01:53:55,800 --> 01:53:59,719
Speaker 1: But since he's on ir now, it can't be an excuse.

2246
01:54:00,200 --> 01:54:03,040
Speaker 1: That's not an excuse for why your offense isn't playing

2247
01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:05,880
Speaker 1: the way it should be. He's out for at least

2248
01:54:05,960 --> 01:54:08,599
Speaker 1: three games. They need to find an answer. They need

2249
01:54:08,600 --> 01:54:11,600
Speaker 1: to use this as an opportunity to be creative and

2250
01:54:11,720 --> 01:54:14,559
Speaker 1: mix things up and find a different way to win

2251
01:54:14,640 --> 01:54:17,400
Speaker 1: with your offense rather than using John Brown as one

2252
01:54:17,439 --> 01:54:21,400
Speaker 1: of your most important pieces. Something like this could help

2253
01:54:21,439 --> 01:54:24,799
Speaker 1: them late in the season in the playoffs. Hopefully Brown's

2254
01:54:24,840 --> 01:54:28,160
Speaker 1: back and healthy, but you can't count on anyone being

2255
01:54:28,240 --> 01:54:31,160
Speaker 1: in for the entire season with the way that injuries

2256
01:54:31,160 --> 01:54:33,680
Speaker 1: have shown up this season for the Bills. Last season,

2257
01:54:34,000 --> 01:54:36,600
Speaker 1: they were so healthy all year. This season, that's not

2258
01:54:36,640 --> 01:54:39,760
Speaker 1: the case for them. So John Brown being out, the

2259
01:54:39,840 --> 01:54:41,440
Speaker 1: guys have got to find a way to win, and

2260
01:54:41,440 --> 01:54:43,920
Speaker 1: they were able to do that yesterday with Gabriel Davis

2261
01:54:43,920 --> 01:54:47,160
Speaker 1: and the run game. I just hope it continues. Steve

2262

Speaker 1: Task along with Maddie Glab here till three o'clock. We're

01:55:25,680 --> 01:55:28,720
Speaker 1: gave out her Maddie Awards she does after every Bill's win.

2274
01:55:28,880 --> 01:55:30,760
Speaker 1: Been doing that a lot this year, by the way,

2275
01:55:30,760 --> 01:55:33,680
Speaker 1: which is kind of cool. We've been We've also been

2276
01:55:33,720 --> 01:55:36,320
Speaker 1: getting your takeaways as well. What's your biggest takeaway from

2277
01:55:36,320 --> 01:55:37,920
Speaker 1: the Bills win over the Charges. You can call us

2278
01:55:37,960 --> 01:55:39,800
Speaker 1: at eight o three five fifty for the next couple

2279
01:55:39,840 --> 01:55:43,280
Speaker 1: of minutes. We're one eighty eight five fifty two five fifty.

2280
01:55:44,120 --> 01:55:47,480
Speaker 1: We've got a bunch more of these these tweets to

2281
01:55:47,520 --> 01:55:51,200
Speaker 1: get to and I'll take one. Let's see from this one.

2282
01:55:51,280 --> 01:55:54,440
Speaker 1: Let's say from Kathleen, the defense was improved. Too many

2283
01:55:54,480 --> 01:55:58,120
Speaker 1: sloppy errors were lucky. The Chargers were unable to capitalize

2284
01:55:58,200 --> 01:56:00,640
Speaker 1: and had their own issues better, our team would have

2285
01:56:00,640 --> 01:56:03,920
Speaker 1: taken advantage. Gabe Davis stepped up with brown out and

2286
01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:08,160
Speaker 1: loved the Beasley play. We miss Milano and hail Mary

2287
01:56:08,360 --> 01:56:15,360
Speaker 1: defense bat it away. I'm not concerned. I'll just start

2288
01:56:15,400 --> 01:56:17,560
Speaker 1: up by saying that I'm not concerned with hail mary

2289
01:56:17,640 --> 01:56:20,200
Speaker 1: defense because it may be three years before we ever

2290
01:56:20,200 --> 01:56:22,840
Speaker 1: see another one. What about you, Maddie, how do you

2291
01:56:22,880 --> 01:56:25,960
Speaker 1: feel about it? I would have to say I'm not

2292
01:56:26,080 --> 01:56:29,720
Speaker 1: concerned too. I mean, yes, it bit us in the

2293
01:56:29,760 --> 01:56:33,800
Speaker 1: butt the first time, but the second time it didn't sew.

2294
01:56:33,840 --> 01:56:38,320
Speaker 1: It is that fifty percent success right here. I will

2295
01:56:38,360 --> 01:56:41,120
Speaker 1: steve if we have another one this year, but like

2296
01:56:41,320 --> 01:56:44,120
Speaker 1: you said, we couldn't have another one for three years.

2297
01:56:44,160 --> 01:56:48,800
Speaker 1: Who knows. These things don't normally happen. Hopefully we're in

2298
01:56:48,840 --> 01:56:52,000
Speaker 1: a place where teams aren't even throwing hail mary's against

2299
01:56:52,080 --> 01:56:53,600
Speaker 1: us at the end of the game because they don't

2300
01:56:53,600 --> 01:56:57,200
Speaker 1: need to because we're beating them so badly exactly. And

2301
01:56:57,240 --> 01:56:59,520
Speaker 1: that's yeah, that's what you're you're kind of thinking. It

2302
01:56:59,520 --> 01:57:01,800
Speaker 1: could be a a whole season or two or three

2303
01:57:01,840 --> 01:57:03,720
Speaker 1: d before the Bills see another I don't know when

2304
01:57:03,800 --> 01:57:06,120
Speaker 1: the last hail Mary was. I can't remember it. Before

2305
01:57:06,120 --> 01:57:10,200
Speaker 1: this season, we probably have one, I don't know, once

2306
01:57:10,200 --> 01:57:12,560
Speaker 1: every two years. You can average him, I don't know,

2307
01:57:12,600 --> 01:57:15,720
Speaker 1: but Bills have had him in consecutive games. They and

2308
01:57:15,760 --> 01:57:20,320
Speaker 1: they've been both completed on them. It's the most it's

2309
01:57:20,360 --> 01:57:23,240
Speaker 1: the lowest percentage play ever and the Bills are giving

2310
01:57:23,320 --> 01:57:28,360
Speaker 1: them up like regularly now, right, So yeah, it is.

2311
01:57:28,920 --> 01:57:32,040
Speaker 1: It's pretty frustrating, particularly when you've got so many things

2312
01:57:32,040 --> 01:57:33,960
Speaker 1: that you can control and so many things that you're

2313
01:57:33,960 --> 01:57:36,960
Speaker 1: doing well. The one thing that is a desperation a

2314
01:57:37,000 --> 01:57:39,560
Speaker 1: low percentage play. You'd think that should be the last

2315
01:57:39,560 --> 01:57:42,160
Speaker 1: thing you really think about. But man oh man, it's

2316
01:57:42,200 --> 01:57:44,320
Speaker 1: gotten the Bills twice, as they've given up two and

2317
01:57:44,440 --> 01:57:48,000
Speaker 1: two consecutive in a consecutive games. Also from the tweet

2318
01:57:48,040 --> 01:57:50,640
Speaker 1: sheet from neck t he says the turnos got pretty ugly,

2319
01:57:50,680 --> 01:57:53,440
Speaker 1: but otherwise that was the most well rounded game of

2320
01:57:53,480 --> 01:57:56,520
Speaker 1: the year. The defense looked like twenty nineteen, the running

2321
01:57:56,560 --> 01:57:58,920
Speaker 1: game came alive, and special teams may have been the

2322
01:57:58,960 --> 01:58:03,160
Speaker 1: best of the three. The refs though the first Rams game.

2323
01:58:03,280 --> 01:58:07,800
Speaker 1: Now this that crew needs some serious help, and I

2324
01:58:07,800 --> 01:58:10,160
Speaker 1: I gotta call Murph and talk to him as see

2325
01:58:10,160 --> 01:58:12,640
Speaker 1: what his thoughts are. I gotta apologize. I was caffeinated

2326
01:58:12,760 --> 01:58:14,600
Speaker 1: big time for that game yesterday in the booth, and

2327
01:58:14,640 --> 01:58:17,200
Speaker 1: I was kind of stepping on him, jumping in on

2328
01:58:17,240 --> 01:58:20,760
Speaker 1: his calls. I feel bad when I do that, but

2329
01:58:21,240 --> 01:58:24,160
Speaker 1: I was. I was not happy with the way the

2330
01:58:24,240 --> 01:58:27,480
Speaker 1: officials handled that game. There were a number of things

2331
01:58:27,480 --> 01:58:29,160
Speaker 1: that got away from them. I thought there was a

2332
01:58:29,280 --> 01:58:32,080
Speaker 1: couple of Tiki tach calls and a couple of calls

2333
01:58:32,080 --> 01:58:36,800
Speaker 1: so they just flat missed. And you know that's it

2334
01:58:37,120 --> 01:58:38,800
Speaker 1: drives me crazy. I don't know, I don't know why

2335
01:58:38,840 --> 01:58:40,920
Speaker 1: it is, but it always has. And I know we've

2336
01:58:40,960 --> 01:58:42,520
Speaker 1: talked about a little bit earlier in the show, and

2337
01:58:42,800 --> 01:58:45,760
Speaker 1: you've got your own thoughts about it. Man. Yeah, I

2338
01:58:45,840 --> 01:58:49,640
Speaker 1: mean tough on the Bills that some of those calls

2339
01:58:49,800 --> 01:58:51,840
Speaker 1: didn't go their way, and some of those calls that

2340
01:58:51,880 --> 01:58:55,320
Speaker 1: they got were kind of questionable, wondering why it was

2341
01:58:55,360 --> 01:58:58,080
Speaker 1: even called that way. I think it added up in

2342
01:58:58,080 --> 01:59:02,880
Speaker 1: this game. But to Nick's other point about special teams

2343
01:59:02,920 --> 01:59:06,600
Speaker 1: maybe being the best of the three, how about Andre Roberts,

2344
01:59:06,680 --> 01:59:08,880
Speaker 1: Tyler Bass what they've been able to do for this

2345
01:59:08,920 --> 01:59:12,440
Speaker 1: team this year. Andre Roberts ranked so high in special

2346
01:59:12,440 --> 01:59:16,680
Speaker 1: teams categories in terms of punt yards and kick return yards.

2347
01:59:16,800 --> 01:59:20,200
Speaker 1: I thought he was going to house one yesterday. Didn't

2348
01:59:20,280 --> 01:59:23,000
Speaker 1: do that, but he helped put this Bill's offense in

2349
01:59:23,040 --> 01:59:26,200
Speaker 1: a lot better position. I know, people were saying in

2350
01:59:26,240 --> 01:59:28,480
Speaker 1: the beginning of the year when we were trying to

2351
01:59:28,520 --> 01:59:31,040
Speaker 1: figure out, all right, who's gonna fit in this wide

2352
01:59:31,040 --> 01:59:34,440
Speaker 1: receiver room. There's way too many wide receivers. Somebody has

2353
01:59:34,520 --> 01:59:36,720
Speaker 1: to be cut. Who's it going to be? And I

2354
01:59:36,760 --> 01:59:39,920
Speaker 1: saw Andre Roberts's name pop up a little bit from

2355
01:59:40,000 --> 01:59:42,800
Speaker 1: some people on Twitter, and I was thinking, there's no

2356
01:59:42,920 --> 01:59:45,440
Speaker 1: way the Bills are letting go of this guy, like

2357
01:59:46,280 --> 01:59:50,200
Speaker 1: he is so good at his job with special teams,

2358
01:59:50,840 --> 01:59:54,880
Speaker 1: and he pops off in practices as a receiver too. Yes,

2359
01:59:54,920 --> 01:59:57,200
Speaker 1: he hasn't been used that much in the receiving game

2360
01:59:57,600 --> 02:00:00,840
Speaker 1: this season, but man on man, some some catches that

2361
02:00:00,880 --> 02:00:05,720
Speaker 1: he had in training camp were incredible. So proud who

2362
02:00:05,720 --> 02:00:07,840
Speaker 1: you're gonna sit down to put Andre Roberts on the field.

2363
02:00:07,880 --> 02:00:11,080
Speaker 1: It's gonna be you know, Steph Diggs, Cole Beasley, John Brown,

2364
02:00:11,160 --> 02:00:14,720
Speaker 1: Gabe Davis, m A. You're gonna take Stevin Singletary Zack

2365
02:00:14,800 --> 02:00:18,160
Speaker 1: Moss off the field. You know. It's it's hard to get.

2366
02:00:18,200 --> 02:00:21,440
Speaker 1: It's a hard lineup to break into if you're if

2367
02:00:21,440 --> 02:00:25,600
Speaker 1: you're Andre Roberts. And this is another tweet from brand

2368
02:00:25,640 --> 02:00:27,480
Speaker 1: who is on that same track with you about the

2369
02:00:27,520 --> 02:00:31,080
Speaker 1: special teams. He says this his takeaway from the Bills

2370
02:00:31,080 --> 02:00:33,440
Speaker 1: win over the Chargers, as we have an elite special

2371
02:00:33,440 --> 02:00:37,600
Speaker 1: teams unit. Bass Is becoming a reliable kicker, Bojoe is,

2372
02:00:37,840 --> 02:00:41,880
Speaker 1: coryb Orkez is killing the ball on punts, Ferguson is

2373
02:00:42,000 --> 02:00:45,080
Speaker 1: money on the snaps long snaps, and Andre Roberts sets

2374
02:00:45,120 --> 02:00:47,040
Speaker 1: up the offense with a shorter field and a lot

2375
02:00:47,080 --> 02:00:50,640
Speaker 1: of and a lot and cover team has been excellent

2376
02:00:50,680 --> 02:00:52,800
Speaker 1: getting the return man on kickoffs be before the twenty

2377
02:00:52,880 --> 02:00:55,440
Speaker 1: twenty five yard line. The Bills haven't even really had

2378
02:00:55,480 --> 02:00:59,520
Speaker 1: to even worry about a punt return and kickoff returns.

2379
02:00:59,520 --> 02:01:02,560
Speaker 1: They're actually inviting the other team. Yesterday they did it.

2380
02:01:02,560 --> 02:01:05,320
Speaker 1: They invited the Chargers to return the ball and it

2381
02:01:05,440 --> 02:01:07,920
Speaker 1: paid dividends as one of them. They tackled him on

2382
02:01:07,960 --> 02:01:10,480
Speaker 1: the twelve yard line. So the Bill's special team has

2383
02:01:10,560 --> 02:01:13,320
Speaker 1: really had a banner day yesterday. They've been good all year.

2384
02:01:13,320 --> 02:01:17,200
Speaker 1: They're specialists. I think once he adjusted to the speed

2385
02:01:17,240 --> 02:01:20,960
Speaker 1: and the light and sound and experience of the NFL

2386
02:01:21,160 --> 02:01:23,960
Speaker 1: early on in the season, Tyler bass Is settled in

2387
02:01:24,000 --> 02:01:26,760
Speaker 1: and become a like he said, a reliable guy with

2388
02:01:26,840 --> 02:01:29,640
Speaker 1: a big leg. They tried a sixty one yard or

2389
02:01:29,680 --> 02:01:31,520
Speaker 1: with him. That shows a lot of confidence in the

2390
02:01:31,560 --> 02:01:36,360
Speaker 1: strength of his leg. They're having him kick specific types

2391
02:01:36,400 --> 02:01:38,560
Speaker 1: of kickoffs which he is up to. He's kicked it

2392
02:01:38,880 --> 02:01:42,040
Speaker 1: with high, with big hang time, and deep and outside

2393
02:01:42,040 --> 02:01:45,920
Speaker 1: the numbers and really set the team up to gain

2394
02:01:45,960 --> 02:01:49,400
Speaker 1: at first down every time he kicks the ball off.

2395
02:01:49,440 --> 02:01:51,240
Speaker 1: So if if they're gonna get the ball to twenty five,

2396
02:01:51,240 --> 02:01:52,760
Speaker 1: they only get it to the the fifteen and that's one

2397
02:01:52,800 --> 02:01:56,320
Speaker 1: extra first down, ten extra yards. The upposing offense has

2398
02:01:56,360 --> 02:02:01,400
Speaker 1: to travel it's fuel position and kick after or kickoff

2399
02:02:01,440 --> 02:02:06,760
Speaker 1: after kickoff that ratchet's up, particularly when they're punter, can't

2400
02:02:06,800 --> 02:02:10,360
Speaker 1: match the yardage that the Corey bar or kisses punning.

2401
02:02:10,360 --> 02:02:12,360
Speaker 1: So the fuel position battle plays a big role in

2402
02:02:12,440 --> 02:02:15,600
Speaker 1: special teams, and the Bills are getting it done all

2403
02:02:15,640 --> 02:02:18,080
Speaker 1: the special teams talk, you know, And I just thought

2404
02:02:18,120 --> 02:02:20,960
Speaker 1: about there should be a T shirt. Someone should design

2405
02:02:21,000 --> 02:02:26,560
Speaker 1: a T shirt that says Bill's Special Forces Unit or

2406
02:02:26,640 --> 02:02:31,160
Speaker 1: Bill's Special Forces Team. I would love that. I would

2407
02:02:31,200 --> 02:02:35,920
Speaker 1: wear it with Tyler Bass, with Corey b Horcz on it,

2408
02:02:36,080 --> 02:02:42,160
Speaker 1: with Andre Roberts, with ferguson on it. I mean, let's go,

2409
02:02:42,680 --> 02:02:45,720
Speaker 1: somebody make the shirt. I'd wear it because the special

2410
02:02:45,720 --> 02:02:48,120
Speaker 1: teams is playing out of their mind. Yeah, and they're

2411
02:02:48,160 --> 02:02:50,640
Speaker 1: getting done with a lot of guys. The coverage guys

2412
02:02:50,640 --> 02:02:54,680
Speaker 1: are really good. They brought Jake Krumero up, the wide receiver,

2413
02:02:54,920 --> 02:02:57,680
Speaker 1: Taiwan Jones is up now. He was healthy again yesterday,

2414
02:02:57,680 --> 02:03:01,280
Speaker 1: and of course Tyler Matakevich has been a crusher on

2415
02:03:01,400 --> 02:03:04,360
Speaker 1: coverage units along with Bam Johnson who runs down there.

2416
02:03:04,560 --> 02:03:07,400
Speaker 1: They got some guys who are really playing well on

2417
02:03:07,480 --> 02:03:11,080
Speaker 1: special teams and it is a group effort, So kudos

2418
02:03:11,120 --> 02:03:15,280
Speaker 1: to those guys for getting it done. I also noticed

2419
02:03:15,320 --> 02:03:17,760
Speaker 1: this a lot yesterday, and this is our last tweet

2420
02:03:17,800 --> 02:03:20,680
Speaker 1: from the tweet sheet. The biggest takeaway from the from

2421
02:03:20,680 --> 02:03:24,360
Speaker 1: the San Diego Chargers game yesterday. This is from Don

2422
02:03:25,480 --> 02:03:29,000
Speaker 1: He says this, why do the Bills go conservative whenever

2423
02:03:29,080 --> 02:03:32,680
Speaker 1: John Brown does not play? Other receivers can play attack

2424
02:03:32,840 --> 02:03:34,760
Speaker 1: is their best game plan? My thought is this, and

2425
02:03:35,040 --> 02:03:36,640
Speaker 1: I'll say this. You can say what you want about

2426
02:03:36,640 --> 02:03:42,280
Speaker 1: the other receivers, but yesterday the Chargers played cover one

2427
02:03:42,800 --> 02:03:45,680
Speaker 1: a ton, I mean, man to man with one free

2428
02:03:45,680 --> 02:03:48,440
Speaker 1: safety guys lined up across the board right in the

2429
02:03:48,480 --> 02:03:51,200
Speaker 1: face of the wide receivers and Josh was having trouble

2430
02:03:51,240 --> 02:03:54,600
Speaker 1: finding guys. The Chargers were up to the task of

2431
02:03:54,720 --> 02:03:58,120
Speaker 1: going deep down the roster. I don't know that they

2432
02:03:58,120 --> 02:04:01,160
Speaker 1: would have had John Brown been in the lineup. I

2433
02:04:01,200 --> 02:04:03,120
Speaker 1: think the Bills would have matched up with him better.

2434
02:04:03,880 --> 02:04:06,360
Speaker 1: When you put a running back out there or a

2435
02:04:06,480 --> 02:04:09,640
Speaker 1: tight end out there. Chargers were not afraid to go

2436
02:04:09,720 --> 02:04:12,240
Speaker 1: man to man with these guys, and they covered guys

2437
02:04:12,320 --> 02:04:13,640
Speaker 1: up really well. And I think he got a tip

2438
02:04:13,680 --> 02:04:15,080
Speaker 1: your hat to him, and I think that's one of

2439
02:04:15,080 --> 02:04:18,560
Speaker 1: the reasons Josh Alan had, you know, a down day

2440
02:04:18,960 --> 02:04:21,920
Speaker 1: statistically passing, he was eighteen to twenty four, so he

2441
02:04:21,960 --> 02:04:24,480
Speaker 1: completed a ton seventy five percent of his throws, but

2442
02:04:24,520 --> 02:04:26,720
Speaker 1: we only had one hundred and fifty seven yards. And

2443
02:04:27,160 --> 02:04:29,240
Speaker 1: I know people think, you know, it was a bad

2444
02:04:29,280 --> 02:04:32,160
Speaker 1: throw on the interception that he threw, and it probably was.

2445
02:04:32,240 --> 02:04:34,920
Speaker 1: It was a dangerous throw on the replay that I

2446
02:04:34,960 --> 02:04:37,560
Speaker 1: saw his arm got hit as the ball was coming

2447
02:04:37,560 --> 02:04:41,280
Speaker 1: out right before he released it. His risk got whacked

2448
02:04:41,280 --> 02:04:43,440
Speaker 1: by the pass rush. So I don't know that would

2449
02:04:43,440 --> 02:04:45,760
Speaker 1: have changed the outcome of the play, but it certainly

2450
02:04:45,800 --> 02:04:47,480
Speaker 1: did have an effect on the fly to the ball,

2451
02:04:48,280 --> 02:04:53,520
Speaker 1: so that you know, was Josh being Josh a little

2452
02:04:53,560 --> 02:04:57,880
Speaker 1: bit the old Josh, no question, but John Brown changes

2453
02:04:57,880 --> 02:05:01,200
Speaker 1: the equation and the Bills know it, and so the

2454
02:05:01,240 --> 02:05:03,520
Speaker 1: defenses they play. So that's why you see a different

2455
02:05:04,200 --> 02:05:07,320
Speaker 1: a much different approach when he's not in the game. Yeah,

2456
02:05:07,360 --> 02:05:10,720
Speaker 1: I think the longest reception was Gabriel Davis's forty four

2457
02:05:10,840 --> 02:05:13,520
Speaker 1: yard reception. They tried to air it out maybe once

2458
02:05:13,600 --> 02:05:17,080
Speaker 1: or twice before that, I think, and weren't able to connect.

2459
02:05:17,120 --> 02:05:20,200
Speaker 1: And that just goes to say two. Yeah, the back

2460
02:05:20,320 --> 02:05:25,640
Speaker 1: end was able to have success with man coverage, but

2461
02:05:25,760 --> 02:05:28,920
Speaker 1: that's because the pass rush was hitting home. They were

2462
02:05:28,960 --> 02:05:32,040
Speaker 1: able to do that because the charters defensive line was

2463
02:05:32,120 --> 02:05:36,640
Speaker 1: being so effective against Josh Allen, specifically Joey Bosa to

2464
02:05:36,680 --> 02:05:38,840
Speaker 1: the point where their back end could match up like

2465
02:05:38,960 --> 02:05:42,000
Speaker 1: that and have that type of success. But sure, John

2466
02:05:42,200 --> 02:05:45,520
Speaker 1: John Brown in that equation definitely makes it harder on

2467
02:05:45,560 --> 02:05:48,800
Speaker 1: the charters secondary. Yeah, lot's going wrong around the National

2468
02:05:48,840 --> 02:05:51,680
Speaker 1: Football League. You've heard so much about the COVID the

2469
02:05:51,720 --> 02:05:54,840
Speaker 1: problems around the league. Certainly in California, it's a problem.

2470
02:05:54,880 --> 02:05:57,400
Speaker 1: Santa Clara, where the forty nine ers are stationed and

2471
02:05:57,800 --> 02:06:00,880
Speaker 1: called their home, has said you're not playing or holding

2472
02:06:00,880 --> 02:06:05,920
Speaker 1: any activities in our town until the COVID is gone.

2473
02:06:06,000 --> 02:06:07,920
Speaker 1: So the forty nine Ers being forced to move their

2474
02:06:07,920 --> 02:06:10,440
Speaker 1: home games. Their next two home games, the next one

2475
02:06:10,480 --> 02:06:12,760
Speaker 1: of courses against the Buffalo Bills this Monday Night, has

2476
02:06:12,800 --> 02:06:15,800
Speaker 1: been moved to Arizona. The Bills are going back to

2477
02:06:15,840 --> 02:06:19,400
Speaker 1: the desert where they play the Arizona Cardinals two weeks ago,

2478
02:06:19,480 --> 02:06:23,040
Speaker 1: and next Monday night at eight pm or eight twenty pm,

2479
02:06:23,360 --> 02:06:25,400
Speaker 1: they're going to kick it off against the San Francisco

2480
02:06:25,480 --> 02:06:28,680
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers in Phoenix. So that happened today. Also

2481
02:06:28,800 --> 02:06:30,600
Speaker 1: one of the other things that's happened around the league,

2482
02:06:30,640 --> 02:06:34,480
Speaker 1: Dave Caldwell, Jacksonville general manager, was fired from his post

2483
02:06:34,480 --> 02:06:37,400
Speaker 1: Bike Owners Shad Khan. Dave Caldwell, a lot of people

2484
02:06:37,440 --> 02:06:39,720
Speaker 1: know here is a Buffalo guy, grew up here, went

2485
02:06:39,760 --> 02:06:44,040
Speaker 1: to Saint Francis High School here in Buffalo. Matt Patricia

2486
02:06:44,120 --> 02:06:46,760
Speaker 1: has been relieved of his duties as head coach of

2487
02:06:46,840 --> 02:06:50,520
Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions. There is an opening now in Detroit

2488
02:06:50,600 --> 02:06:53,720
Speaker 1: for a head coach, and there may be more on

2489
02:06:53,800 --> 02:06:57,000
Speaker 1: the way. So lots of things are starting to happen.

2490
02:06:57,080 --> 02:06:59,880
Speaker 1: Is this season winds down to the final month we'll

2491
02:07:00,120 --> 02:07:03,160
Speaker 1: keep on top of that as we go along. The Steelers,

2492
02:07:03,200 --> 02:07:09,880
Speaker 1: these Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens game is gonna

2493
02:07:09,880 --> 02:07:14,840
Speaker 1: happen tomorrow night, the Ravens and they and I get

2494
02:07:14,840 --> 02:07:18,280
Speaker 1: it's it's Maddie, it's social media. People are livid, if

2495
02:07:18,600 --> 02:07:22,560
Speaker 1: you know. The Steeler fans are livid because their team

2496
02:07:22,680 --> 02:07:24,640
Speaker 1: is getting pushed back and they get a delay that

2497
02:07:24,760 --> 02:07:30,600
Speaker 1: and then the Denver Broncos are forced to play a

2498
02:07:30,640 --> 02:07:32,840
Speaker 1: game and they don't even have a quarterback on their roster.

2499
02:07:32,960 --> 02:07:36,040
Speaker 1: But now they're given the Ravens and the Steelers all

2500
02:07:36,120 --> 02:07:39,000
Speaker 1: kinds of leeway pushing the game back from Thursday to Sunday,

2501
02:07:39,040 --> 02:07:42,320
Speaker 1: now to Monday, now to Tuesday. They're giving them all

2502
02:07:42,400 --> 02:07:46,680
Speaker 1: kinds of leeway to, you know, to delay their game

2503
02:07:46,720 --> 02:07:48,920
Speaker 1: and get their their act together. The reason for that

2504
02:07:49,040 --> 02:07:54,680
Speaker 1: is this, Maddie. The Ravens had twenty guys. Twenty guys

2505
02:07:55,600 --> 02:07:59,959
Speaker 1: had the virus, twenty of them. That's why the Ravens

2506
02:08:00,120 --> 02:08:04,560
Speaker 1: got a little extra dispensation to delay their game. And

2507
02:08:04,600 --> 02:08:06,560
Speaker 1: that's where they sit Tomorrow night. They'll kick it off

2508
02:08:06,600 --> 02:08:08,520
Speaker 1: against the Steelers. If they can get a couple of

2509
02:08:08,520 --> 02:08:10,480
Speaker 1: guys off the COVID list. That'll be a huge step

2510
02:08:10,480 --> 02:08:13,800
Speaker 1: and we're looking forward to that. So that's some of

2511
02:08:13,800 --> 02:08:15,440
Speaker 1: the stuff that's going on around the league. We'll be

2512
02:08:15,480 --> 02:08:17,400
Speaker 1: back right after this for what do we learn coming

2513
02:08:17,400 --> 02:08:20,080
Speaker 1: back at you, Maddie Glad Steve Tasker Radio only today,

2514
02:08:20,360 --> 02:08:23,640
Speaker 1: not at our Seneca one studios, but from our homes

2515
02:08:24,080 --> 02:08:26,879
Speaker 1: and our guy Jay Harris looking at us over the computer.

2516
02:08:27,000 --> 02:08:28,840
Speaker 1: Good for you, Jay, you look great. By the way.

2517
02:08:29,240 --> 02:08:31,880
Speaker 1: We'll be back. We'll be back right after the break.

2518
02:08:31,960 --> 02:08:33,960
Speaker 1: One Bills Live presented by Kalid to Health. This is

2519
02:08:34,000 --> 02:08:44,200
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills Radio. What do we learned? Rocking you by Skyworks,

2520
02:08:44,520 --> 02:08:47,880
Speaker 1: the official construction equipment rental company of the Buffalo Bills.

2521
02:08:47,920 --> 02:08:49,960
Speaker 1: One thing we learned, Maddie, and the important thing going

2522
02:08:50,000 --> 02:08:51,720
Speaker 1: forward is that the Buffalo Bills are not going to

2523
02:08:51,720 --> 02:08:54,240
Speaker 1: San Francisco this week on Monday Night Football. They're going

2524
02:08:54,280 --> 02:08:56,720
Speaker 1: to go to Arizona and play the forty nine ers

2525
02:08:57,120 --> 02:08:59,560
Speaker 1: in the home of the Cardinals. That came out during

2526
02:08:59,600 --> 02:09:03,760
Speaker 1: the show today, and no surprise there really and I

2527
02:09:03,800 --> 02:09:07,240
Speaker 1: think it's I think it's actually a positive for the

2528
02:09:07,240 --> 02:09:10,400
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills rather than a detriment to the forty nine

2529
02:09:10,480 --> 02:09:11,920
Speaker 1: Ers or as much as it is a detriment to

2530
02:09:11,960 --> 02:09:15,560
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers. Yeah, and like Eric Wood said,

2531
02:09:15,760 --> 02:09:20,640
Speaker 1: it's nice that we know this information on Monday rather

2532
02:09:20,760 --> 02:09:24,840
Speaker 1: than it being a Wednesday or Thursday. Just knowing where

2533
02:09:24,880 --> 02:09:28,640
Speaker 1: the team's gonna play on Monday nights, you don't want

2534
02:09:28,640 --> 02:09:31,360
Speaker 1: to have to draw that out longer than it needs

2535
02:09:31,400 --> 02:09:33,560
Speaker 1: to be. And I know the Titans situation, like Eric

2536
02:09:33,600 --> 02:09:36,520
Speaker 1: Wood said, was very different. So it's nice to know

2537
02:09:36,720 --> 02:09:39,000
Speaker 1: that the game is going to be played. We've got

2538
02:09:39,000 --> 02:09:41,200
Speaker 1: a home. The forty nine ers have a home for

2539
02:09:41,280 --> 02:09:43,960
Speaker 1: the next two home games. It's going to be in Arizona.

2540
02:09:44,080 --> 02:09:47,160
Speaker 1: It's a chance to do to do right by their

2541
02:09:47,200 --> 02:09:54,080
Speaker 1: wrong rehash the demons that were set against the Cardinals

2542
02:09:54,120 --> 02:09:58,240
Speaker 1: in that hail Murray, go out there and win the game. Yeah,

2543
02:09:58,280 --> 02:10:00,960
Speaker 1: I gotta thank you. Mattie saved the show today. You

2544
02:10:01,000 --> 02:10:03,520
Speaker 1: came to the rescue. Chris Brown couldn't be making in today,

2545
02:10:03,640 --> 02:10:05,440
Speaker 1: had something to pop up in his life he had

2546
02:10:05,480 --> 02:10:08,240
Speaker 1: to take care of. He'll be back tomorrow. Thanks Mattie

2547
02:10:08,240 --> 02:10:11,160
Speaker 1: for saving the show and giving us a great co

2548

2551
02:10:21,120 --> 02:10:23,360
Speaker 1: So many things to talk about. A great game for

2552
02:10:23,400 --> 02:10:26,880
Speaker 1: the Bills, hopefully another great one next Monday. You got

2553
