00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 4: different little setting. I want to thank our entire Bill's

13
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 4: staff that's here. We just had a great meeting to

Speaker 4: kind of welcome Joe in there, but appreciate all of

Speaker 4: here today as well. I want to thank our owner

17
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 4: Terry Pagoula and his family, Pete Gwelly, Terrence Gray, Brian Gain,

18
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 4: and Josh Allen for the extensive work time and energy

19
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 4: that we all put in last week when we started

20
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 4: this search to where we ended up with Joe. I'd

21
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 4: also personally like to thank the other eight candidates. This

22
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 4: process was long, but it was informative. Learned a lot

23
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 4: about how other people do things, how other teams do business,

24
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 4: and took a lot of notes along the way. There

25
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 4: was a lot of brilliant football minds that we were

26
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 4: able to spend a good amount of time with, including

27
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 4: a forty four year old quarterback that just came back

28
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 4: and finished that was That was a good one. But

29
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 4: when we started this process, we were looking for a

30
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 4: CEO type of head coach. And so you may say, Okay,

31
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 4: what is what do you mean by a CEO? And

32
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 4: what I'm talking about is a fresh new vision for

33
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 4: the Buffalo Bills, somebody who values strong culture, collaboration and alignment.

34
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 4: We wanted a highly intelligent, aggressive and excellent communicator. We

35
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 4: wanted alignment. Joe Brady is all of that and more.

36
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 4: We all know Joe. Joe is a brilliant offensive mind.

37
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 4: He's led you know, the two years that he had

38
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 4: the Full Helm as our offensive coordinator, top five offenses.

39
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 4: He led the offense that produced an MVP quarterback a

40
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 4: year ago, this past season, the NFL rushing champ. Joe's

41
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 4: offenses know how to attack in many different ways, and

42
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 4: we all know that about Joe. But what I and

43
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 4: our team learned through this process was Joe's vision for

44
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 4: how he would run an entire football team, and specifically

45
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 4: his thoughts on how our defense would play under Joe

46
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 4: if he was given this job. He wants a defense

47
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 4: that attacks opposing quarterbacks and play callers pre snap and

48
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 4: post snap, a defense that dictates to the offense. And

49
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 4: what I also learned about Joe through this process was

50
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 4: his love for Buffalo, his love for our community, and

51
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 4: the entire Bills mafia. Joe is the perfect fit for

52
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 4: our team. Right now, I am fired up to announce

53
00:03:59,440 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 4: the next.

54
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 5: Head coach of the Buffalo Bills, Joe Brady.

55
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 6: Something my guys. I'm trying not get emotional already. I

Speaker 6: want to first start with gratitude. I hope, I hope

58

62
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 6: is evident in everything you do. When this opportunity came along.

63
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 6: I didn't want to just be a head football coach.

64
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 6: I wanted to be the head football coach of the

65
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,279

Speaker 6: good start. I definitely can't look at you now. This

74
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,599

Speaker 6: I've been fortunate to be around a lot of incredible

109
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 6: coaches in my career. I'm not up there without them.

110
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 6: I played for coach Jimmy Laycock. I coached the linebackers

111
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 6: for Jimmy Laycock. I was GA for James Franklin, got

112
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 6: an opportunity to be a coaching assistant with Sean Payton,

113
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 6: opportunity to call plays with ed Orsron Matt Ruhle and

114
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 6: coach quarterbacks, and call plays for Sean McDermott. I want

115
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 6: to then and recognize Sean McDermott and twenty twenty two,

116
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 6: four years ago, coach mcdernat gave me an opportunity of

117
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 6: the lifetime, had an opportunity to come here coach for

118
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 6: the Buffalo Bills and coach Josh Allen. I took a

119
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 6: mench pride in that. Over the past four years, I've

120
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,839
Speaker 6: learned a tremendous amount of things from coach McDermott, how

121
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 6: to lead resilience standards. The past nine years in this

122
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 6: organization matter, I'm understanding of that. I'm appreciative of the

123
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 6: opportunity to be a part of it. They matter deeply

124
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 6: and they deserve respect. I am so grateful for Coach McDermott.

125
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 6: I love Coach McDermott, and I'm gonna do everything I

126
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 6: can to continue to build upon the things that he

127
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 6: laid and the foundation he laid all right. At the

128
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,839
Speaker 6: same time, we gotta move forward, right, and I think

129
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 6: it starts with a new energy, a new mentality, and

130
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 6: a new vision, a new energy that I gotta drive

131
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 6: every single day. One thing is that the guys know

132
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 6: about me, and look, it might be from Espresso, it

133
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 6: might be from Gatorade, fast Twitches, but I'm gonna bring

134
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 6: the energy every single day and I believe people are

135
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 6: gonna feed off of that. I truly believe and be

136
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 6: in the temperature right, I'm the weather and they're gonna

137
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 6: feel it every single day. A mentality I believe in

138
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 6: everything about these guys right here, right, and the mentality

139
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 6: as we go forward that it is a nameless facist

140
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 6: opponent that we're going against and they got to play

141
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 6: us and not the other way around. And I mean

142
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 6: that with everything. They gotta play the Buffalo Bills, they

143
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 6: gotta play Josh Allen the Buffalo bills, not the other

144
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 6: way around. And it does not matter the day of

145
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 6: the week, the time of the day, is it outside,

146
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 6: is it inside, what's the weather? Just put the damn

147
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 6: ball down, let's go play, and that's gonna be the

148
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 6: mentality that we play with. That's Buffalo and then a vision.

149
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 6: I believe in communication, connection, accountability, and love. I said

150
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 6: this to the staff. Quiet teams don't win. Quiet teams

151
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 6: do not win, all right, And I'm gonna everything my

152
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 6: power to have that communication line open and everything that

153
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 6: I do, I believe in that, and then love. Connected

154
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 6: teams win. Connected teams win. If you love the man

155
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 6: next to you and you to care more about his

156
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 6: success than your own, that's when you're gonna win football games.

157
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 6: I understand that I'm walking into this role in a

158
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 6: much better position the coach McDermott did. I am not

159
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 6: naive to that. I also understand that the expectations are

160
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 6: higher as well. I didn't take this job the shot

161
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 6: away from expectations. I sure as hell did not do that.

162
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 6: I'm embracing it, I'm understanding it, and I'm I'm meeting

163
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 6: it full on. I know what I signed up for

164
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 6: and we're gonna embrace it because no one rises to

165
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 6: low expectations. I want what the city wants. I want

166
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 6: what mister Bogula deserves. Buffalo the same thing as Buffalo.

167
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 6: Buffalo isn't just where I work, and this is a

168
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 6: kid from South Florida. Buffalo is not just where I work.

169
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,319
Speaker 6: It's where my life changed. There's nowhere else I'd rather

170
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 6: be than right here right now, and I mean that

171
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 6: in my whole heart and my family. My wife and

172
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 6: I got married while we've been living here. We didn't

173
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 6: even take a honeymoon right away, so that we can

174
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 6: spend our first summer here in Buffalo and experience in Buffalo.

175
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 6: Both of my kids were born in Buffalo, and they're

176
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 6: gonna be raised their entire life to have so much

177
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 6: pride and being able to say that they're from Buffalo.

178
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,719
Speaker 6: This city and this organization paids so much life into

179
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 6: me professionally, and I don't take that lightly. I want

180
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 6: to make the city proud every day, and I understand

181
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 6: the pride, and I want to do everything I can

182
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 6: to earn were in this logo. The pride and passion

183
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 6: of the Buffalo Bills is second and none Bill's Mafia.

184
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 6: I feel it. I felt it. There's no other place

185
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 6: that when you travel there's unwritten rules that you have

186
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 6: to wear Bills logos and you go on an airplane

187
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:36,959
Speaker 6: and this where you'd swear that we're playing a home

188
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 6: game the next day, because it's completely full of Bills

189
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 6: fans and the power that no matter where you are

190
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 6: in the country. You can be in Italy, you can

191
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 6: be in California, you can be across the world. That

192
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 6: power that as you walk by someone and they're wearing

193
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 6: a Bill's logo and the powerful worlds. I'm not saying

194
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 6: much but just saying, go Bills. I believe in the

195
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 6: Bills Mafia. I have so much power and respect for it.

196
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 6: I have so much respect for it. Want to do

197
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 6: everything I can to continue earning their respect and putting

198
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 6: something on the field that they are proud of. Lastly,

Speaker 6: with different personalities, different ideas, different viewpoints. I don't want

236
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 6: a lot of guys that just think like me. And

237
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,640

Speaker 9: Joe John Warrel, congrats.

244
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 10: You mentioned it during your speech, But you understand the

245
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 10: challenges and the pressures that come with these jobs and

246
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 10: what and what you're stepping into. What are the challenges

247
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 10: that you face of carrying over the sustain the sustained

248
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 10: success and the culture that Sean brought in and how

249
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 10: do you want how do you go about carrying that

250
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 10: over as yours as you being head coach?

251
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, the culture, the culture starts with them. When

252
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 6: you watch, you watch a guy that's playing with seventeen

253
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 6: sets the tone of the culture, right. The men in

254
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 6: the locker room set the culture regardless of who the

255
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 6: head coach is, and it's my job to making sure

256
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 6: that I'm allowing them to be their personality, allowing them

257
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 6: to play to their personality, because that's what the culture is.

258
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 6: Like I said, I understand the expectations that's come with

259
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 6: this job, but it's important that we understand that this

260
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 6: is going to be a new year and we have

261
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 6: to start over. We don't just get to pick up

262
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 6: or we left off and think that hey, we're in

263
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 6: the position that hey, next week we're going to be

264
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 6: in the conference championship game and me a lot of

265
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 6: work and I believe mister boogl Alway says we're gonna

266
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,880
Speaker 6: work tirelessly with it. We're gonna have the competitive stay.

267
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 6: I'm going to start over, but I'm excited about the

268
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 6: direction that we have and the people that we have,

269
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 6: and I believe in that.

270
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 11: I guess Brandon, When did you know that Joe is

271
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,120
Speaker 11: your guy?

272
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's funny.

273
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 4: We interviewed Joe first, and these were long interviews.

274
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 10: You know, some.

275
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 4: Teams that started earlier in the process kind of zoomed

276
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 4: some people for an hour, maybe hour fifteen is a

277
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 4: lot of those, and then you hear about the second interview.

278
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 4: We knew that we needed to kind of pair this

279
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 4: field down best you could.

280
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 12: I mean, nine people still a lot, but at.

281
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 4: The same time, you want to be thorough with the process,

282
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 4: and so we kind of went through. We didn't after

283
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 4: each person went, we debriefed as a group and made

284
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 4: you know, took notes and made sure to hear each

285
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 4: other like what you know, because sometimes I may miss something.

286
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 4: Oh that's that's what he was saying there, and so

287
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 4: I would say. When we got done with the last candidate,

288
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 4: which ended up at about ten o'clock one night, we

289
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 4: stayed in there for another two hours, talked a little bit.

290
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 12: And Joe was standing out.

291
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 4: There were you know, you know, two or three that

292
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 4: were standing out, and we said, you know what, let's

293
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 4: go to bed.

294
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 12: We're tired.

295
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 4: We came back the next day and we talked some

296
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 4: more and we said you know what we did Joe.

297
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 4: So Joe was starting to rise here as the guy.

298
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 4: But we we also know, we know Joe, and honestly,

299
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 4: I almost think Joe had a tough hill to climb.

300
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 4: As I was telling the staff earlier when we started

301
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 4: this process, I made sure and you can ask anyone

302
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 4: that was in the interview, Terry, Pete, Josh, anybody, Laura,

303
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 4: that the best process is not to look at Joe

304
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 4: Brady as someone in our building, because we know the

305
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 4: good the bad. It's like living with someone right these

306
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 4: other people, we don't know every single thing about him,

307
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 4: and so we need to pretend. I think I said,

308
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 4: like that Joe has been coaching for the Green Bay

309
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 4: Packers or something, and so I made Joe go through.

310
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,879
Speaker 4: We never met him before, and there were some other

311
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 4: candidates that we knew. I know, we know, you start

312
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 4: from scratch because I may know something that Terry doesn't know,

313
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 4: or that Pete or Brian gain.

314
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 12: So it's a long answer for you, Matt.

315
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 4: But I did not want to rush this process, and

316
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 4: I wanted to be fair to every candidate, and so

317
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 4: we got Joe back on a zoom call and I

318
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 4: called him, Hey, Bud, we need more here, and so

319
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 4: we wrote down the questions that we still had for Joe,

320
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:58,880
Speaker 4: and about halfway through that process, I was like, that's

321
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 4: our guy. But I still had to let Terry finish

322
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 4: some questions too, because you know, I want to make

323
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 4: sure he was on board and the approval. And Terry,

324
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 4: you know, didn't even reach back over to me.

325
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 12: He's like, I think you're the next Dad coach.

326
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 13: You know.

327
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 12: It's like Terry I got to talk to his agent,

328
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 12: like we got to go. But it was a great process.

329
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 12: It was a thorough process.

330
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 4: And as I said in my opening statements, I took

331
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,199
Speaker 4: so many notes. I've already shared some with Joe, but

332
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 4: it's it's great to peel back the onion of how

333
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 4: different teams and how some of these there were some smart,

334
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 4: smart people, and I mean, you're always trying to learn.

335
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 4: I learned way more than I knew I would learn stuff.

336
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 4: But I learned way more than I ever thought I would.

337
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 12: You know that I was missing. And so we'll take

338
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,399
Speaker 12: those as advantages.

339
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 4: And we'll talk about what we heard, what we like,

340
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 4: and and try and create this new vision for for

341
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 4: the you know, the next iteration the Buffalo.

342
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 14: Bills, Joe, what needs to change and how will you

343
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:06,479
Speaker 14: do it?

344
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm in the process of sorting through without getting

345
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 6: in into all the details, Like there's there's a lot

346
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,360
Speaker 6: of things that, like I talked about, is I want

347
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,880
Speaker 6: to make sure that we continue to kind of owe

348
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 6: in on right now. Is the energy, the mentality and

349
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 6: our vision moving forward. I'm not necessarily focused on changing

350
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 6: things as as opposed to where do we need to

351
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 6: go from here and just moving forward with that direction.

352
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:30,919
Speaker 14: That would have been a pretty short interview though, if

353
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 14: you didn't have ideas about what you want to implement,

354
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,360
Speaker 14: can you share what you told during the interview process

355
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 14: what you want to do with this team?

356
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,679
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think look through the through the interview process.

357
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 6: Like I said, it was a it was an extremely

358
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 6: intense interview, and look, Josh Allen was stoic in it,

359
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 6: like he Yeah, I made sure he didn't. I didn't

360
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 6: talk to him for a week, which was you know,

361
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 6: I'm I'm at edge, but he was making sure that

362
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 6: he was removed from it and everybody in that room.

363
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 6: I was appreciative of the professionalism. Right the premise of

364
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 6: the interview was making sure that I was able to

365
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 6: kind of talk about not use it as a hey,

366
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 6: these are things that I would change. It's more of

367
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 6: this is what I would do as a head coach

368
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 6: and this is the vision that I'm looking to do here.

369
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 6: I think a lot of times we think that, hey,

370
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,159
Speaker 6: when you when you take over a place, you just

371
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 6: have to change a lot. Sometimes it's just fine tuning

372
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 6: some things. But without getting into the details of the

373
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 6: privacy of some of our conversations, I really want to

374
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 6: make sure that our mentality right and the vision that

375
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 6: we're going to with the connection and the love and

376
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 6: the communication is at the forefront.

377
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,919
Speaker 15: Joe Brady, Mookie Hawkins, congratulations, Thank you brother. Gotta get

378
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,399
Speaker 15: used to you being in a suit now.

379
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 6: You might hopefully you don't have to see it in a.

380
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 12: While, Yes, sir, yes sir.

381
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 15: But how did you plan to support Josh Allen's growth

382
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 15: as a leader and a playmaker? And you know what

383
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,679
Speaker 15: changes can you expect when you know what's most important

384
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 15: to you and building the coaching staff.

385
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, like every decision, every decision this organization makes, it's

386
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 6: with the thought of Josh Allen and the players at

387
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 6: mind right. I'd be crazy not to I was a

388
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 6: part of incredible organizations in New Orleans with surrounding around

389
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 6: Drew Brees, and there wasn't a decision that was made

390
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 6: without Drew Brees being being thought about, talked about, and

391
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 6: making sure you understood. It doesn't mean it was always

392
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 6: the decision, but it was important that he was involved

393
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 6: in it because he is. He is the leader of

394
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,959
Speaker 6: this organization and the weight that he has on his

395
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 6: shoulders is something that I can't even imagine. Everything I

396
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 6: think about is trying to find ways to put him

397
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 6: in a position to have success, because that's all I

398
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 6: care about with him. Josh Allen is the best player

399
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 6: in the NFL, and I have to grow, right and

400
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 6: part of me growing is that that's going to allow

401
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 6: him to be a better version of himself. And I can't.

402
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 6: I'm so excited to be able to continue this journey

403
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 6: with him. I have so much love for that man

404
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 6: right there, and all I want is him to get

405
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 6: everything that he deserves. And that's what that's all I

406
00:23:58,119 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 6: do for.

407
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 16: Hey, Joe doing John Anderson, congratulations kind of what Tim

408
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 16: and kenast You'll ask again at what moment for you

409
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,879
Speaker 16: during the interview process, do you feel that management said

410
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,400
Speaker 16: this is our guy, that they were going to tell

411
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 16: the players, this is our guy, that the fans are

412
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,959
Speaker 16: going to say, this is our guy. What moment did

413
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,399
Speaker 16: it hit you that this is my job and I

414
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 16: can do this?

415
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 17: Well?

416
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:26,919
Speaker 6: I knew it was going to be like I had

417
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 6: the mindset it was going to be my job. But

418
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 6: that was just because how I went into it. Even

419
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 6: when Terry offered me the job, I still thought he

420
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 6: was asking me a question that hey, so is this

421
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 6: how I want to answer it?

422
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 18: And so.

423
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 6: Full transparency I was. I couldn't sleep for the last week.

424
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 6: This is the job I wanted. And I you know,

425
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,719
Speaker 6: when you interview first, you you don't know. You come

426
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 6: away and you're like, hey, you know, I hope I

427
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,920
Speaker 6: can get another interview. I hope I get another opportunity.

428
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 6: There's no like I said, this is where I wanted

429
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 6: to be. But there was never a moment where I

430
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 6: walked away was like, hey, this is my job. You know.

431
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,120
Speaker 6: I thought, you know, they devastated, incredible job making sure

432
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 6: that they're doing it the right way, and that's that's

433
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,199
Speaker 6: what I wanted. That's what I wanted. I had an

434
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 6: opportunity to talk to Josh the other day and I'm sorry,

435
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 6: but like he let me know, He's like, I didn't

436
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,159
Speaker 6: I didn't help you get this job. You got this

437
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,959
Speaker 6: job and that meant so much to me. And you know,

438
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 6: so there was never a moment, like I said, even

439
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 6: after mister Bogold, I was still making sure I heard

440
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 6: it correctly, but I was sweating it out the entire

441
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 6: the entire time, Brandon.

442
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 19: Last week, it was seeming clear that the roster was

443
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 19: felt to be strong enough. But maybe coaching is the

444
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 19: reason that this team hasn't reached the super Bowl. Why then,

445
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 19: was a choice who's been part of this coaching staff

446
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 19: the right one to be the next head coach?

447
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 10: Yeah?

448
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 4: I mean I would say it wasn't like there was

449
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 4: a finger pointed at coaching, So I would disagree with that, John.

450
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 12: This is a collective thing. We do this together.

451
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,439
Speaker 4: We all collaborate, and hopefully I was clear that you know,

452
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,959
Speaker 4: Sean McDermott being dismissed or a change with coaching, I

453
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 4: feel guilt for that as well. There's things that I

454
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 4: could do and that you know, Joe and I will

455
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,239
Speaker 4: work together to make sure that we get corrected to

456
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 4: get this thing over the top. So as I was

457
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:13,479
Speaker 4: saying earlier, if you viewed like I'm gonna step back

458
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 4: to myself. So I was in Carolina, started as an intern,

459
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 4: grew my way up interim GM and but some people

460
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 4: still have a problem.

461
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,119
Speaker 12: They view you as what you were versus what you

462
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 12: can be.

463
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 4: And so if you're in Joe's seat as the offensive coordinator,

464
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 4: I'm only having conversations with Joe about the offense or

465
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 4: his players or things like that. It's not a holistic

466
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 4: view of how we talk about sports science or how

467
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 4: we practice, or that's not his area. That's that was

468
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 4: coach McDermott's area. That will now be his area. So

469
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 4: when we went into this process, that's why I thought

470
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 4: it was very important to hear everything about We didn't

471
00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 4: need to spend long talking about his offense.

472
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 12: We know that is.

473
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 4: It was really talking about everything else, and we went

474
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 4: down to what we're gonna do on a Monday after

475
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 4: we win a game. What's the coaches gonna do, what

476
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 4: are the players going to do? What are we gonna

477
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 4: do on Tuesday? I mean we spent probably twenty five

478
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 4: minutes thirty minutes with them each candidate, just going through

479
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 4: every single detail of what this operation.

480
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 12: Is going to be from right.

481
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 4: Now through Phase one, Phase two, Phase three training camp.

482
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,120
Speaker 4: How we're opening camp, We're gonna be away. I told

483
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,399
Speaker 4: every candidate we go away, that's what we do. So

484
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 4: I want to hear how that works for you all

485
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 4: the way down to the daily practice. Uh, when are

486
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,439
Speaker 4: we eating lunch? Like one of these guys eating I

487
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 4: think that was one of Josh's questions. But you know,

488
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 4: and I'll say this like to the point on you know,

489
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 4: I know people were opining on whether the quarterbacks should

490
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 4: be in there or not. You know, that's one of

491
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,120
Speaker 4: those ones that he wasn't in there. People will be like,

492
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 4: why you're not. You know, the guy's MVP, he's been here.

493
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 4: To me, it was his role in there was if

494
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 4: there's anything we left out schematically something he's got a

495
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 4: question like we're not as deep into x's and o's

496
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 4: as those guys are. And also, you know, I told

497
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 4: Josh at the beginning, like if there's someone you don't

498
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 4: feel you mesh with or that our players is kind

499
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,879
Speaker 4: of a voice for the locker room, that would be

500
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 4: silly for us to select that. But when we had

501
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,400
Speaker 4: this last like Josh went in and had his foot fixed,

502
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 4: he was not able to you know, finish. But we

503
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 4: we didn't even have him in the process where we

504
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 4: were discussing pros and cons of each candidate. He was

505
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 4: just there to kind of hear and speak up when

506
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 4: when spoken to. But again, I think ultimately we never

507
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 4: viewed Joe Brady as the offensive coordinator, just like when

508
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 4: when Brian Daball was here, we obviously no Daves. We

509
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 4: didn't view him as that. We viewed him as as

510
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 4: coming from somewhere else.

511
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 20: Hey, Joe Andy Young from Spectrum News, congratulations you.

512
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 11: What is your approach to defensive football and what type

513
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 11: of qualities and style are you looking for a defensive coordinator.

514
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 6: Yeah. Look, the privilege that I've had of calling plays,

515
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 6: you understand what keeps you up at night when you're

516
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 6: calling plays. I feel like defensive football for so many

517
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 6: years were just putting stress on quarterbacks. You get to

518
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 6: the line of screams and they're putting stress on quarterbacks

519
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 6: pre snap, post snap. And nowadays the type of you know,

520
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 6: the best defenses and the best minds are continuous all

521
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 6: the way through the play call, putting stress on coordinators,

522
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 6: you know, and it's not no longer. Are you able

523
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 6: to just know where guys are going to be when

524
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 6: they're going to be there. And I think that that's

525
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 6: you know, a key element of what I'm looking for

526
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 6: on a defense is making sure that we have the

527
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 6: versatility to be able to change in personnels, get a

528
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 6: lot of different people in different spots, similar to what

529
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 6: we do offensively. I don't believe offensive football and defensive

530
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 6: bble should have different mindsets, but we can understand as

531
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 6: we approach a game plan that there's a way to

532
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 6: win every game and as long as we have versatility

533
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 6: and different type of pieces that we can find that

534
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 6: way to win. To put stress on both the offense

535
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 6: and the defense.

536
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 21: HJO Mike Catalana, congratulations with all the success you've had

537
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 21: with the offense.

538
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 12: Terry talked about the team hitting.

539
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 21: A wall in the playoffs and you and the offense

540
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 21: have been part of that. With opportunities in the playoff

541
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 21: games at the end.

542
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 12: Maybe to tie or to take the lead.

543
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 21: What responsibility do you feel for that and what do

544
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 21: you feel needs to change when we talk about getting

545
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 21: over the top offensively in those key moments.

546
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm just as responsible right that last football game

547
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 6: there's five turnovers. Those five turnovers are on me, right,

548
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 6: I'm understanding of that and the accountability that I think

549
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 6: for you guys that have been a part of the

550
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 6: press conferences, like when our guys play well, it's because

551
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 6: of them, and when they don't, it's because of me.

552
00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 6: And we address things obviously you know in the meeting rooms,

553
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 6: but the accountability, it is always going to start and

554
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 6: end with me, especially in these settings. And so I

555
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 6: take full responsibility for having the ball in the game

556
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 6: on the line and we didn't get it done right.

557
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 6: And that's what I continue to shrive every single I

558
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 6: was like, hey, we get that opportunity again, what am

559
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 6: I going to do differently? And that's part of the growth.

560
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 6: I think the biggest thing is as we continue to

561
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 6: progress year in anding out, is we don't just sit

562
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 6: there and just not evaluate our systems and not find

563
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 6: ways to grow. Our offense. Should our offense, our defense,

564
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 6: our especially should never look the same year to year.

565
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 6: It has to grow, It has to evolve, players change,

566
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 6: the game changes, and I think that that's the most

567
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 6: important thing, or else we're going to continue to get

568
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 6: the exact same results.

569
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 22: Joe Brandon Joe congratulations and cell capaccio here you have

570
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 22: often talked this is a question for both of you. Brandon,

571
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 22: You've mentioned alignment, you mentioned collaboration a lot. How does

572
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 22: that look to both of you? What does it mean

573
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 22: alignment and collaboration when it comes to personnel, selecting players,

574
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 22: players on the roster. How does that look to both

575
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 22: of you going forward?

576
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, look, I can obviously start Alignment doesn't mean green

577
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 6: and everything. Alignment to me means we're both open and

578
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 6: open conversation and communication and understanding that we don't have

579
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 6: to be yes man. But when we make a decision,

580
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 6: when that door opens, there's no going backwards and there's

581
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 6: no second guessing and we're going all out with it.

582
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 6: To me, that's alignment. Alignment is a shared a shared

583
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 6: vision for what we want and making sure that we

584
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 6: don't ever lose sight of that when we make decisions

585
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 6: like when we put when when I say, hey, Josh,

586
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 6: Allen and the guys are always at the forefront of

587
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 6: exactly when we make every decision. That's alignment and making

588
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 6: sure as we evaluate and as we continue to go

589
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 6: when we're going to make decisions, we don't lose sight

590
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 6: of that. That to me is alignment.

591
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, without repeating, I think he nailed it out.

592
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 12: You know, just you're collaborating.

593
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 4: It's not like, hey, I'm going to go over here

594
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 4: with my scouts and my personnel staff and we're going

595
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 4: to tell you who you got or we're going to

596
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 4: hand you the players.

597
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 12: Like it's first off.

598
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 4: When he gets this new staff in here, we what

599
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 4: are we changing, what are we tweaking what? You know,

600
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 4: if it's something, Hey, we want this type of defense,

601
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 4: We want to be able to do this in certain situations.

602
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 12: You know, these.

603
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 4: Players all fit that, but this player might not fit

604
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 4: as well, and we.

605
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 12: Need to look for that.

606
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 4: So we'll once we get those coordinators in, and especially

607
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,479
Speaker 4: on the defense, you know, because I kind of got

608
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 4: a pretty good vision in Joe's offense, but defensively, like

609
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 4: bring that coordinator in, bring those position coaches in and

610
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 4: go through the position specifics and how they want to

611
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 4: do the things that Joe was talking about how we

612
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 4: want to attack. And that's collaborating in a shared vision.

613
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 4: And listen, if there's something that Joe doesn't think makes sense,

614
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 4: he's going to speak up. If there's something that I

615
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 4: don't think makes sense, I'm going to speak up, but

616
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 4: we're going to collaborate on every part of it. And

617
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 4: then you know what we do as scouts and personnel,

618
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 4: and our guys do it for me.

619
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 12: They help, They help narrow down a large.

620
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 4: Field, like let's just talk about free agency down to

621
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 4: a smaller field. I'm going to review that look at him,

622
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,760
Speaker 4: make sure I may say, hey, guys, you left somebody

623
00:33:58,840 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 4: out or why is.

624
00:33:59,480 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 12: This guy in?

625
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 4: And then because Joe's got a lot of then I'm

626
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 4: going to go to Joe and his coordinators and say, hey,

627
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 4: take a look at these guys. This is you know,

628
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:10,239
Speaker 4: let me know how you see him, this is how

629
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 4: we see him. And if we agree, that's great, that's easy.

630
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 4: We know we can pursue him. If we don't agree,

631
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 4: we may sit in a room and say, tell me

632
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,760
Speaker 4: what you see from from your lens as a coach,

633
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 4: but also hear what my how what I see from

634
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 4: a personalized because we.

635
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 12: Don't get into schemes.

636
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 4: A lot of times coaches going with schemes, we're just

637
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 4: like looking.

638
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 12: At his body type.

639
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 4: Uh, he's got long arms, he can jump high like

640
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 4: all those things. And sometimes we may miss something, Hey,

641
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,240
Speaker 4: this guy's got some instinctual.

642
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 12: Things that I'm worried about, you know, that can come up.

643
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 4: So I'm getting granular, but I hope you understand that

644
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 4: is it's everything in the process. Hey, when we get

645
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,440
Speaker 4: to talk about training camp, what I mentioned like, how

646
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 4: do we want to practice a camp? How do we

647
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 4: want to get with our sports science people and make

648
00:34:56,160 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 4: sure we're building the right team that's fat, physical, calloused,

649
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 4: yet healthy. And so that's a line that that's collaboration,

650
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 4: shared vision.

651
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,400
Speaker 6: Hey Joe that Brown, congratulations, thank you.

652
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 14: For the last couple of years you've been coordinating offense

653
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:15,799
Speaker 14: for someone else's team.

654
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 12: What changes now that you're going to run an offense

655
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 12: for your own team?

656
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 6: I think I think the biggest thing is understanding that

657
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 6: when you're when you're the play caller, you're understanding of

658
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 6: as an offensive play caller. Everything you're going through is

659
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 6: thinking situational football, right. You're you're having the mindset of

660
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 6: a I'm calling this play, this is what's happening next,

661
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 6: this is I'm sure you're trying to stay ahead of

662
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:39,360
Speaker 6: it all when you're when you're an offensive play caller

663
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 6: for uh, for a head coach, you have to be

664
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 6: mindful of of those things because you're not in full

665
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 6: you're not in full control of handling all of those situations, right,

666
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 6: and uh, that's where a collaborative approach is, you know,

667
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 6: is extremely important, you know, from an offensive quarter, and

668
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 6: that's calling a play calls with with a head coach.

669
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 6: But from my perspective, like, look, I was, I was

670
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 6: around Champagne. I'm from the Champagne tree. You know, his aggressiveness,

671
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,319
Speaker 6: his mindset, you know, and there's so many elements that

672
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 6: I believe that we can continue to grow our offense,

673
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 6: you know, with the pieces that we have, and I

674
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:09,800
Speaker 6: look forward to that quickly.

675
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 3: It's been reported, all right, So that is new head

676
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 3: coach Joe Brady, General manager Brandon Bean. We have to

677
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 3: take a break here, pay some bills. When we come back,

678
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 3: do not worry. We will pick up where we left off,

679
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 3: so you don't miss a second of the press conference

680
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,120
Speaker 3: and we'll bring it to you in its entirety when

681
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 3: we return here on One Bill's Live.

682
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:30,360
Speaker 2: Stay with us.

683
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 3: All right back here on One Bills Live on the

684
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 3: day that head coach Joe Brady is introduced to the media,

685
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 3: we get you right back to the press conference where

686
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 3: we left off.

687
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 23: The CEO nature of the head coach position, it can

688
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 23: tend to stray thin in a lot of different ways.

689
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 23: So the decision to call plays Joe, for you, what

690
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 23: went into that knowing all the other responsibilities heading into

691
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 23: the head coaching position. And then for Brandon, what made

692
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 23: you feel confident in Joe that he's able to do

693
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 23: all of those things including calling the place.

694
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 6: Yeah. Look, I've never been a head coach before, right,

695
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 6: I'm understanding of that. The only way to get head

696
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 6: coaching experience is to be a head coach. But I

697
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 6: think the most important thing is surrounding yourself with people

698
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 6: that you can trust and you can lean on as

699
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:33,200
Speaker 6: you grow through it. There's gonna be elements and I'm

700
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 6: going to make mistakes. I'm not going to be perfect, right,

701
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 6: but I'm gonna do everything I can to continue to

702
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 6: grow through that. There's gonna be a lot of conversation

703
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 6: about figuring all that out. But like I said, as

704
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 6: you're as an offensive play caller, and every element that

705
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 6: you're doing is situational, is game management. You literally don't

706
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 6: call a play without already thinking about what it's going

707
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 6: to look like next, what the situation or what the

708
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:54,279
Speaker 6: defense is going to look like, and you have to

709
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,240
Speaker 6: have multiple things in mind, but I think the biggest

710
00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 6: thing is making sure that I'm surrounding myself with the

711
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,800
Speaker 6: right people that, hey, I can't be in the offensive

712
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,319
Speaker 6: room on every single second. I'm not the offensive head coach.

713
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,440
Speaker 6: I'm the head coach, and I'm understanding of that, and

714
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 6: it's important that the defensive guys know me, and then

715
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,880
Speaker 6: I'm able to speak the defensive language and I can

716
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,280
Speaker 6: communicate with the defensive coaches and the special teams coaches.

717
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 6: That's important to me. So it's important when I put

718
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 6: together the staff, that I put together guys that understand

719
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,800
Speaker 6: the vision that I'm looking for with different ideas and

720
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 6: putting it together so that I don't live and do

721
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 6: everything like I did as offensive corner because I'm not

722
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:26,240
Speaker 6: the offensive cornerator anymore.

723
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,240
Speaker 12: Yeah, Joe to.

724
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 4: Segue off that, I think that was part of the

725
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:32,719
Speaker 4: process of making sure.

726
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 9: That we.

727
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:38,280
Speaker 4: Didn't view Joe ass just the OC, but his staff,

728
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:42,360
Speaker 4: which he's mentioned, and his plan for surrounding himself with people,

729
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:45,400
Speaker 4: and obviously he's got relationships He's mentioned Coach Peyton and

730
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 4: other guys that have done this and So when you

731
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 4: anytime you hire and we interviewed some people that had

732
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,319
Speaker 4: a head coaching job and some that did not. But

733
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,919
Speaker 4: anytime you hire someone for the first time and they're

734
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 4: doing this, there is a little bit of an unknown.

735
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 4: But I believe his plan, his vision, and our communication.

736
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:08,840
Speaker 4: I think we'll be able to support him where he

737
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 4: needs it, which which he will. And he said he's

738
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 4: going to learn along the way. I would think if

739
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 4: you sit down twelve months from now, Joe's going to.

740
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 12: Say, man, that was uh, that was that was wild.

741
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 12: I learned, I.

742
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 4: Learned a lot, and I'm going to be even more prepared,

743
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:23,839
Speaker 4: you know for season two.

744
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 24: Hi, Joe, you mentioned all the great coaches you've learned

745
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 24: under over time.

746
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:34,959
Speaker 4: How did you build a vision for how you wanted

747
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 4: a football.

748
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:36,240
Speaker 25: Team to operate?

749
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 6: I think and all the places that you go, you're

750
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 6: consistently learning, taking notes, not necessarily from the coaches you're

751
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 6: working on, but you know teams that you're going against

752
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 6: the way that the football evolves. But the biggest thing

753
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 6: that I learned all the way is that if I'm

754
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:53,439
Speaker 6: not myself, it's not going to work. If I tried

755
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 6: to just hey, pick up, oh, this is what coach

756
00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 6: Peyton did and take it somewhere else that's not going

757
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:02,360
Speaker 6: to work. And I think that that's important that I

758
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 6: have to be me, and I think the great coaches

759
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 6: that I've been around have been comfortable in who they are, Like, look,

760
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 6: you guys, you guys know I do curse, I I

761
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 6: I stutter on some words like I am me and

762
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 6: I'm comfortable in that. And I think my guys understand that.

763
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 6: But I'm gonna be my personality. And I think the

764
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 6: great coaches that I've been around are comfortable in who

765
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 6: they are and know their strengths and put together a

766
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:28,399
Speaker 6: staff on things that they might necessarily be their their

767
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 6: strong points.

768
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 26: Brandon, I was curious with who considering who you were interviewing,

769
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 26: was there a conversation about waiting for coaches in the

770
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 26: Super Bowl in this process or what was that like

771
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 26: with getting the late start on going through this coaching process.

772
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, great question, Lena, because when we started, you know,

773
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 4: the NFL rules allow you to do zooms up to

774
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:54,439
Speaker 4: a certain point with any candidate as long as you

775
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 4: follow along at the right time based on whether they're

776
00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 4: in the postseason or not. But because of when this

777
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 4: change was made, and when we started our search, we

778
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 4: were no longer allowed to talk to coaches that were

779
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 4: still in the postseason. To the point, the way we

780
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 4: did it was, we said, let's go ahead and start

781
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,320
Speaker 4: this process with all available coaches.

782
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 12: Their seasons have ended, and we time these up to run.

783
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 4: We were interviewing even while the games started on Sunday,

784
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 4: and so we said, there are some other candidates that

785
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 4: are playing, and there's some on each team. We had

786
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 4: them identified and we got on you know, got on

787
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 4: with them the next day and did that. But you know,

788
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 4: we can't even because of the rules, We can't even

789
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 4: zoom anyone on either of their maning teams. And you

790
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 4: hate to rule it out, but I think you would

791
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 4: unfairly hurt them because all the staffs are going to

792
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:56,319
Speaker 4: be filled up, and I just don't know if if

793
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 4: it would be fair to them or the Bills to

794
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:01,759
Speaker 4: wait any longer. It's you know, I've long been a

795
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:05,720
Speaker 4: proponent of changing the hiring process, if you guys remember,

796
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 4: and I've brought up rules changes, but I don't make

797
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 4: the rules, and my job is to make sure I'm

798
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 4: always doing what's best for the Buffalo Bills, and so

799
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,759
Speaker 4: I just thought once we got to this point, it

800
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:24,080
Speaker 4: would be you know, just not smart to wait any longer.

801
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 4: We need our guys as long as we find the

802
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 4: right guy. Now, listen, if we went through these nine

803
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:31,879
Speaker 4: and we're like, we're not going to we said that all,

804
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 4: we're not going to force it. But we had some

805
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:38,960
Speaker 4: very good options when we did this, and clearly at

806
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 4: the end, Joe was the man for the job.

807
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:48,319
Speaker 25: Lancelace I was getting the Buffalo News.

808
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 27: Congrats Joe.

809
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 25: Questions for both of you guys, how do you balance

810
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 25: personnel you have on the Ronster salary cap and your

811
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:58,879
Speaker 25: vision for a possible scheme change on defense, specifically as

812
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 25: you move forward and build a VISI for what you

813
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 25: want this to look like.

814
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would say we're gonna have to take that

815
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 4: one day at a time. You know, we got to

816
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 4: get these coaches hired and get them in here. And

817
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 4: you know, Joe and I have already been talking about

818
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 4: some of the things. But I do think on defense,

819
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 4: like if we were to make you know, you know,

820
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 4: a change to you know, if you know, Joe's looking

821
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:22,319
Speaker 4: at different things, nothing's but a five down front or whatever. Like,

822
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:24,760
Speaker 4: we do think we have some pieces that can already

823
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:26,799
Speaker 4: fit in that, but as I said earlier, maybe some

824
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 4: don't fit as well.

825
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 12: And we'll talk about what that looks like.

826
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 4: And then we'll look in free agency and where what

827
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:36,240
Speaker 4: you know, we're trying to identify some guys that would

828
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:39,520
Speaker 4: come in and fit whatever the defense is going to be.

829
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 4: And then obviously as we get into April, work closer

830
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,239
Speaker 4: on that. You know, the cap we don't even know

831
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:47,839
Speaker 4: the cap number. We've already you know, I already kind

832
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,120
Speaker 4: of know some things that we're gonna need to do

833
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 4: to get under the cap whatever that number is. And

834
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,319
Speaker 4: you know, it's just hard to get too far down

835
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:59,200
Speaker 4: the road lance to talk this player or that player.

836
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 12: But I know those.

837
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:04,399
Speaker 4: Cover conversations will intensify over the next you know, three

838
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 4: or four weeks.

839
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 6: And look, it's obviously unique situation, right because we don't

840
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,319
Speaker 6: have coordinators. But in my in my opinion, and once

841
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,440
Speaker 6: you get a coordinator and you the biggest thing is

842
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 6: you got to surround your system with the players that

843
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 6: you have. You don't make players just fit a system,

844
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 6: You make you make a system fit players. And I

845
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,720
Speaker 6: think that that's the most important thing as we continue

846
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 6: to grow is that's why your offensive defense. Things change,

847
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 6: Guys get injured, That's why your offense, your defense should

848
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 6: be able to have the flexibility to play in different,

849
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 6: different personnel groupings, different weather And if you only have

850
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,719
Speaker 6: one way to go with it, and you only have

851
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 6: this is the only way that this can work and

852
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 6: you can't adjust and adapt, I think that's you know,

853
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,319
Speaker 6: that's when you get some issues. And so obviously this

854
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 6: is a situation where it's it's vision and its personality

855
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 6: and identifying exactly what we're looking for in a scheme,

856
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 6: and then we can continue to build around that. But

857
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:57,319
Speaker 6: once you get that, it's more of Okay, this is

858
00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,760
Speaker 6: what we got. Let's not just bang our heads against

859
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 6: a wall and say, hey, it doesn't matter, this is

860
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 6: what I'm running no matter what.

861
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 9: It's no.

862
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:03,799
Speaker 6: Hey, what do these guys do well? And let's put

863
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:04,920
Speaker 6: them in a position to have success.

864
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 28: Joe, congratulations at Prinosyracuse dot com. You you mentioned coming

865
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,319
Speaker 28: from Sean Payton's tree, and I'm sure you've had conversations

866
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,759
Speaker 28: with guys over the years who are calling plays and

867
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,960
Speaker 28: also in game management like head coaching, big picture stuff.

868
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 28: How do you plan to navigate all that as a

869
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,839
Speaker 28: first time coach. I think a lot of fans are

870
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:30,359
Speaker 28: interested in that. The challenges that go into navigating all

871
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 28: the new responsibilities.

872
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think that's part of the growth. And just

873
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,799
Speaker 6: like my first time when I when I took over

874
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 6: at LSU, I was a coaching assistant. I had never

875
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,759
Speaker 6: called plays before, and it was the same, Hey, how

876
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:43,040
Speaker 6: are you going to game plan? How are you gonna

877
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,480
Speaker 6: put together a call sheet? How are you gonna get You?

878
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:47,400
Speaker 6: Figure it out? You know, you grow, you learn, You

879
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 6: try to do everything you can to put your put

880
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 6: you in the best position to have success, and then

881
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 6: you learn from mistakes and you continue to grow from there.

882
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,120
Speaker 6: I'm gonna do a lot of I've done in the

883
00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 6: past years. This isn't something where I just man out

884
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 6: of know where. I decided, you know, this an opportunity.

885
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:02,239
Speaker 6: I hope I can be the head coach here. Like

886
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 6: I believe, you know, stay ready so you don't have

887
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:07,759
Speaker 6: to get ready. And so everything that I've done is

888
00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 6: making sure and when this opportunity ever did come up,

889
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:12,719
Speaker 6: that I had a plan for exactly what I was

890
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:15,360
Speaker 6: looking like and making sure that I'm in constant communication

891
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 6: with people of Hey, what did you learn on the job,

892
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 6: what can I what would you have done differently? And

893
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:22,920
Speaker 6: because at the end of the day, I know all

894
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:24,759
Speaker 6: I know is what I know. But I'm making sure

895
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:27,359
Speaker 6: that I'm surrounding myself with people that and hearing them

896
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 6: out and from their experiences, and we're going to bring

897
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 6: a lot of different coaches in that have have have

898
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,360
Speaker 6: been around people that have have done it, and so

899
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 6: just making sure that I'm not I'm exhausting all the

900
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 6: avenues knowing that I don't have all the answers, but

901
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,399
Speaker 6: if I surround myself with enough people and I'm open

902
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:43,399
Speaker 6: enough that I'll be able to find out what works

903
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 6: best for us.

904
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 11: I didn't say congrats earlier, so congrats, Yeah, I wanted to.

905
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:53,839
Speaker 12: Get that off.

906
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:54,719
Speaker 6: No, you're good about it.

907
00:46:54,840 --> 00:47:00,279
Speaker 11: When people reach like a life changing milestone, I'm always curious,

908
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:03,359
Speaker 11: just from the human element, when you finally find out

909
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 11: that you got this job, who and what do you

910
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 11: start to think about? Like what are those first initial thoughts?

911
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 6: My wife, I like, that's that's I. Never it's I

912
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:18,399
Speaker 6: am because of the people in my life. It was never.

913
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 6: There's there's no element in my life has it ever

914
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,040
Speaker 6: been about me? There's there's no I don't put trophies

915
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 6: behind me. I don't. I don't do anything, and there's

916
00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,040
Speaker 6: nothing that I do because of me. It's because of

917
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 6: the people that I surround myself, the people that do

918
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 6: all the sacrifices for that. I love to work, you know.

919
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,520
Speaker 6: So it's like, hey, I'm gonna go home. Let my

920
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:38,359
Speaker 6: wife know, hey, and now I got to get back.

921
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 6: It's time to work, like I enjoy that. There's no

922
00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 6: that that competitive stamma that I believe I'm gonna continue

923
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,320
Speaker 6: to instill in our guys is the same mindset that

924
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 6: I have to have. But I don't look at it

925
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 6: as like, man, this is an achievement. This is an

926
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,280
Speaker 6: opportunity to do what I love and an opportunity to work,

927
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 6: and I'm just grateful for the people that I get

928
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 6: to do it with.

929
00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:00,719
Speaker 13: Dave Naylor from TFN Brandon with back what you said.

930
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,440
Speaker 13: You tried to treat Joe as if he was working

931
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 13: for somebody else and not make it about history. But

932
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 13: you and him and other people here have had a

933
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:11,840
Speaker 13: tremendous amount of success over the last four seasons that

934
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 13: Joe has been a part of Overall. Was there any

935
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 13: part of you that didn't want to depart completely from

936
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 13: all of that, and did Joe represent some consistency with that. Again,

937
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,799
Speaker 13: with respect to what you said about him being yeah,

938
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:26,879
Speaker 13: with another team, I'm just wondering you can balance those

939
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:27,400
Speaker 13: things for me.

940
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:31,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that's I never really thought through the

941
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:35,000
Speaker 4: process of the years that Joe was here, honest say

942
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:36,840
Speaker 4: to you just said twenty twenty two they kind of

943
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:37,480
Speaker 4: run together.

944
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 12: No, it was.

945
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 4: You know, you know, I went into it with a

946
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:46,439
Speaker 4: blank slate of we got to find the right guy.

947
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:50,120
Speaker 4: And I would say the odds when you have one

948
00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 4: person from the building and eight outside the building, I

949
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 4: would say the odds were against Joe being selected.

950
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:57,359
Speaker 12: That's just God's honest truth.

951
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,319
Speaker 4: And I can tell you there's some candidates that we

952
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:02,880
Speaker 4: interviewed that are going to be.

953
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 12: Really good head coaches.

954
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 4: And but at the end of the day, when you're stacking,

955
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,440
Speaker 4: I mean, we we had a list that put together

956
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,080
Speaker 4: what do we want in what do you look for

957
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:15,920
Speaker 4: in a general head coach? And then what do you

958
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 4: want in the Buffalo Bill's head coach? And there's some

959
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 4: you know, it can be a little tweak here there

960
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:25,200
Speaker 4: when you're at the end and you're starting to pair

961
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:27,719
Speaker 4: some people out and get it down to three four

962
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:32,120
Speaker 4: and then one or two. You're checking those boxes. And

963
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 4: while no one is going to one hundred percent check

964
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:37,279
Speaker 4: every single.

965
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:42,840
Speaker 12: Box, Joe checked a lot of boxes. And we think

966
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,960
Speaker 12: the areas. Some of it is the box he's never

967
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 12: done it before. You can't check that box.

968
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:52,799
Speaker 4: But ultimately we think knowing him, knowing his vision, and

969
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,879
Speaker 4: knowing the team and the support staff that we have here,

970
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:58,600
Speaker 4: that we can help fill in some of those areas.

971
00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 4: We all have holes in our game, so to speak,

972
00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:06,040
Speaker 4: me included, and that's where I think Joe and I

973
00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:10,080
Speaker 4: will compliment each other. And it's been fun for two

974
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 4: days to look at him in a different light than,

975
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:14,560
Speaker 4: uh than what I looked at him before.

976
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,600
Speaker 6: And I can, I can, I can kind of talk

977
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 6: through that too, because look, full transparency, I didn't know

978
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 6: what I was walking into, you know, like I obviously

979
00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:26,160
Speaker 6: I wanted the opportunity, but you don't know, and you know,

980
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:28,399
Speaker 6: I have been in the building and that's what I came.

981
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,239
Speaker 6: I remember when I got out of that interview, and

982
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:33,320
Speaker 6: like I said, there was it was an intense interview

983
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:37,840
Speaker 6: and I there's some places that I've interviewed that acted

984
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:39,919
Speaker 6: as if they knew me more than than this place.

985
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:43,080
Speaker 6: And that's what I was appreciative of. But when when

986
00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 6: you go through the process of you can really tell

987
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:48,279
Speaker 6: that they I came away and I remember calling my

988
00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:51,359
Speaker 6: agent right away and I was like, man, that that was.

989
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:53,120
Speaker 6: I talked about how tough it was, but I also

990
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,719
Speaker 6: talked about how like how impressive I came away with

991
00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 6: how they approached it, the questions what mattered to them.

992
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 6: I mean, Josh did not toss me any alley oops.

993
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:03,600
Speaker 6: I can tell you that like it was. It was impressive,

994
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:05,799
Speaker 6: even the questions that he asked and the vision that

995
00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:08,000
Speaker 6: he was, you know, kind of talking through. And so

996
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:11,480
Speaker 6: it gave me an opportunity to obviously, you know, get

997
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,120
Speaker 6: in front of mister Bagoula and and and and it was.

998
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:15,840
Speaker 6: It meant a lot to me, but the way that

999
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 6: they approached the situation meant more to me. And I

1000
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,279
Speaker 6: didn't walk away feeling like, oh, hey, you know what,

1001
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,840
Speaker 6: I was just in house, Hey check the box. Like

1002
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,319
Speaker 6: I I walked away and I was appreciative of the opportunity.

1003
00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:28,440
Speaker 6: And I was able to show who I am because

1004
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:31,440
Speaker 6: they opened they allowed me to. They didn't sit there

1005
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 6: and say, hey, we know this guy Joe.

1006
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,440
Speaker 15: You got guys that's on the staff that that was

1007
00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:42,680
Speaker 15: with you, you know, such as Ron Curry who was

1008
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:45,839
Speaker 15: quarterback coach the same position that you were in. And

1009
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:48,319
Speaker 15: then you got guys that on the defensive side, which

1010
00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:52,000
Speaker 15: was the number one passing defense that you know that

1011
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:54,920
Speaker 15: played an integral part. How would guys like Jamel Wouday

1012
00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:57,960
Speaker 15: or and guys like Ron Curry, uh share some of the

1013
00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:00,640
Speaker 15: qualities when it's when you look to building that staff.

1014
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think. Look, the biggest thing that to me

1015
00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:06,400
Speaker 6: is when you put together a staff is understanding the

1016
00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,480
Speaker 6: different type of personalities and making sure that you have

1017
00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:14,080
Speaker 6: a bunch of different backgrounds both schematically personality and not

1018
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:16,640
Speaker 6: just sitting there looking for a cookie cutter. If we

1019
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:18,279
Speaker 6: have a bunch of Joe Brady's in the room, we're

1020
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 6: not going to grow and we're not gonna evolve. And

1021
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,040
Speaker 6: that's important to me. And so putting together that staff,

1022
00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 6: there's so many critical elements that I look for different

1023
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:29,160
Speaker 6: type of people. Some guys might be more fundamental driven.

1024
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:32,319
Speaker 6: Some guys might be the energy, the juice that you know,

1025
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 6: the raw, raw guys. Some guys might be the common

1026
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:38,040
Speaker 6: communicators and understanding the type of rooms that they're coaching

1027
00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:41,160
Speaker 6: and putting that room together is so important to me,

1028
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:42,719
Speaker 6: and so making sure as I'm looking at it from

1029
00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:44,960
Speaker 6: a clean slate, just like they did and saying, hey,

1030
00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:46,760
Speaker 6: what am I looking to I only get one opportunity

1031
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 6: to be a head football coach. I'm not in the

1032
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:52,040
Speaker 6: business of hiring my friends and making sure. I want

1033
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,080
Speaker 6: to get the best football coaches for these players because

1034
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:57,200
Speaker 6: they deserve that, and so that's what's important to me absolutely.

1035
00:52:57,320 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 15: Now diving into player development, you got young guys such

1036
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:03,040
Speaker 15: as Max Harriston, Dwayne Carider, key On Coleman. What would

1037
00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 15: be your approach into their development going forward?

1038
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:07,760
Speaker 6: I think the biggest thing is making sure that we

1039
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:10,719
Speaker 6: go back and evaluate our systems to start, and that's

1040
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 6: in every element of the organization. There's a reason they're

1041
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 6: on our football team because we believe in them, right

1042
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,799
Speaker 6: and they one to understand that, And I think two

1043
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,239
Speaker 6: is understanding and communicating and get to know them. The

1044
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:22,959
Speaker 6: only way you can coach guys is if you really

1045
00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:25,840
Speaker 6: know them. You know yet, how can I hold him accountable?

1046
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:27,680
Speaker 6: How can I communicate to him? How can I understand

1047
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:29,480
Speaker 6: how he viewed this. If I'm not, if I don't

1048
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,520
Speaker 6: care about him, and I don't get to know the

1049
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,120
Speaker 6: other person. And so that's what the biggest thing for

1050
00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:36,960
Speaker 6: me this offseason, you know, just is to is to

1051
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:38,800
Speaker 6: talk with the guys, get on the facetimes, try to

1052
00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:41,680
Speaker 6: get an understanding that I'm not the offensive coordinator anymore. Right,

1053
00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:43,239
Speaker 6: I'm their head coach, and I want to get to

1054
00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:44,520
Speaker 6: know them so that then I can be able to

1055
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:46,600
Speaker 6: coach them and continue to develop them the way that

1056
00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 6: they need.

1057
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:54,440
Speaker 8: Hey, Joe, there was a lot written and talked about

1058
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 8: the downfield passing game this year, and obviously you're as

1059
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:00,359
Speaker 8: close to it as anybody. What do you look at

1060
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 8: I'm sure you've reviewed it all. How is that going

1061
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:06,239
Speaker 8: to improve? What do you have to do to make

1062
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:08,600
Speaker 8: this team more functional down the field than it was

1063
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:09,400
Speaker 8: last season?

1064
00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:11,960
Speaker 6: Yeah? Look, there there's so many different elements that come

1065
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:16,440
Speaker 6: into just saying downfield passing right. You know, we ended

1066
00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:19,319
Speaker 6: up finishing second in the NFL. And explosives right, and

1067
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:21,640
Speaker 6: so there's so many different ways of how you can

1068
00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:25,040
Speaker 6: You can throw the ball twenty yards and get a

1069
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:26,799
Speaker 6: twenty hour completion. You can throw the ball behind the

1070
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 6: line of scrimmage and get a twenty yr completion. There's

1071
00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:30,279
Speaker 6: so many different ways you can get that. But I

1072
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:31,759
Speaker 6: also think you have to understand that you've got to

1073
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:33,800
Speaker 6: be able to tack the defense, to stretch the defense vertically,

1074
00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:35,920
Speaker 6: but you also got to be smart about what you're

1075
00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:37,920
Speaker 6: going with and making sure that Josh is making great

1076
00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:40,960
Speaker 6: decisions as he's handling that. That's an element of our

1077
00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:42,880
Speaker 6: game that has to improve, and it will improve, and

1078
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:44,400
Speaker 6: it has to improve in the off season as we

1079
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:47,000
Speaker 6: get into the situations of it's we don't have pads

1080
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:50,440
Speaker 6: and it's a passing it's a passing camp essentially. Like

1081
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,799
Speaker 6: I said, I'm from the Sean Payton tree right and

1082
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,279
Speaker 6: the way that I was raised and understand that the

1083
00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:58,640
Speaker 6: aggressiveness of pushing ball on the field and what it does.

1084
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 6: But I also understand we're not going to just bang

1085
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,400
Speaker 6: our heads against the wall and if if people are

1086
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:04,040
Speaker 6: as deep as the deepest and it's like, hey, Josh,

1087
00:55:04,080 --> 00:55:05,759
Speaker 6: just throw a deep, throw it deep. But we're going

1088
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:08,319
Speaker 6: to continue to evolve and change our and grow our

1089
00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 6: offense based upon the personnel that we have. You know,

1090
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:12,319
Speaker 6: Josh is going to continue to grow and get better

1091
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:15,040
Speaker 6: and then we're gonna be able to get to put

1092
00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:17,759
Speaker 6: an offense around that. But just to say, hey, we're

1093
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:19,320
Speaker 6: just going to throw a deep, just to throw it deep,

1094
00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:21,920
Speaker 6: we got to make sure that we're effective at it

1095
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 6: as well.

1096
00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:26,319
Speaker 29: Hey, Joe Jay with the Buffalo News, how much autonomy

1097
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:28,320
Speaker 29: did you have over the last couple of years to

1098
00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:32,919
Speaker 29: call the offense that you wanted to call versus having

1099
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:35,080
Speaker 29: it fit into a vision that was maybe laid out

1100
00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:35,760
Speaker 29: by the head coach.

1101
00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:38,919
Speaker 6: Look, there there's a way to win every game, and

1102
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,520
Speaker 6: that's to me, that's to me the most important thing.

1103
00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:43,759
Speaker 6: And as a head football coach, sharing the vision and

1104
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,200
Speaker 6: making sure that you're communicating with your coordinators about this

1105
00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:47,560
Speaker 6: is how it's what it's going to take to win

1106
00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:51,920
Speaker 6: this football game. Part of the I do believe calling

1107
00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:56,040
Speaker 6: plays is understanding that as well. When you look at

1108
00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:58,279
Speaker 6: us from an offensive perspective this week, this year, there

1109
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:00,520
Speaker 6: was games where we lived in thirteen person needed to

1110
00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:02,799
Speaker 6: control the line of scrimmage and control the game. There

1111
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:04,239
Speaker 6: was games that we knew, hey, this is going to

1112
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,640
Speaker 6: probably be a high scoring game, you know, and you

1113
00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:09,840
Speaker 6: got to call it differently. Look, I'm the play caller

1114
00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:12,439
Speaker 6: and I'm not gonna I'm not going to put any

1115
00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 6: excuses or anything like that. If there was any issues

1116
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:16,360
Speaker 6: or anything that came up from an offense from an

1117
00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:19,640
Speaker 6: offensive quarter in perspective for our offense, that falls strictly

1118
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:22,759
Speaker 6: on me. And you know, I was in communication with

1119
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:24,839
Speaker 6: coach McDermott and we at the end of the day,

1120
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:26,799
Speaker 6: we have to grow our offense. I know we had

1121
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 6: a lot of success this last year, but we looked

1122
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:31,080
Speaker 6: different than the previous year and we're gonna have to

1123
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:35,880
Speaker 6: continue to look different next year. Awesome.

1124
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,760
Speaker 3: All right, So that's the press conference introducing the twenty

1125
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:42,319
Speaker 3: first head coach in team history, thirty six year old

1126
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 3: Joe Brady, who was a head coach in the NFL

1127
00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:46,839
Speaker 3: for the first time in his career. We will take

1128
00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:49,680
Speaker 3: a break here and come back discuss some of what

1129
00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:52,359
Speaker 3: we heard from Joe Brady and Brandon Bean, and then

1130
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:54,640
Speaker 3: we will take another break because Josh Allen will be

1131
00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:57,279
Speaker 3: addressing the media in about fifteen minutes time.

1132
00:56:57,360 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 2: We'll do all of that. When we were turning here

1133
00:56:59,160 --> 00:56:59,960
Speaker 2: on one of Bill's line.

1134
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:08,759
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back to one Bill's Live especial three

1135
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:11,360
Speaker 3: hour edition on the day that Joe Brady has introduced

1136
00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:14,239
Speaker 3: as the twenty first head coach in team history. You

1137
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,440
Speaker 3: just heard the press conference and we'll dive into some

1138
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 3: of the details of it. Now, we should tell you

1139
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:22,280
Speaker 3: among the players in attendance, we're quarterback Josh Allen, long

1140
00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:26,760
Speaker 3: snapper Reed Ferguson, running back Ty Johnson, offensive tackle Spencer Brown,

1141
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:31,240
Speaker 3: tight end Dalton Kincaid, and cornerback Max Harson, offensive lineman

1142
00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,080
Speaker 3: Cedric van pran Granger.

1143
00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:35,920
Speaker 2: You heard Brandon Bean say it.

1144
00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:38,480
Speaker 3: They were looking for a CEO type head coach, someone

1145
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:41,000
Speaker 3: who had a fresh new vision for the Bills, someone

1146
00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:45,240
Speaker 3: who values alignment and collaboration, and by his estimation and

1147
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:48,840
Speaker 3: those in the head coaching search committee, Joe hit that

1148
00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:53,120
Speaker 3: element of the interview process out of the park. Joe

1149
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:56,360
Speaker 3: Brady said it was the most intense interview process he

1150
00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:57,960
Speaker 3: has ever been a part of. And this is a

1151
00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:02,400
Speaker 3: guy that interviewed with five other teams. Appreciated that they

1152
00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:06,200
Speaker 3: interviewed him with a clean slate, as if they did

1153
00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 3: not know anything about him prior. Brandon Bean saying that

1154
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 3: he felt that was the most respectful and I would

1155
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:19,640
Speaker 3: say objective way to conduct the interview process.

1156
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he wasn't the only one that they knew.

1157
00:58:22,280 --> 00:58:22,800
Speaker 2: They knew.

1158
00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:27,520
Speaker 1: Anthony Lynn was known to some of the guys probably

1159
00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:33,280
Speaker 1: in the room as well. But it's yeah, the process

1160
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:35,680
Speaker 1: needed to run its course, and they knew that. I

1161
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,439
Speaker 1: had said early on that I thought maybe Josh would

1162
00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: be asked to come in for the finalists. If they

1163
00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:44,440
Speaker 1: narrowed it down, you know, and had guys come back

1164
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:46,640
Speaker 1: for their second interview, then joshould be inserted. And Josh

1165
00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:48,200
Speaker 1: was actually in the room for the whole thing. And

1166
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:51,200
Speaker 1: I thought too, that since he was in the room

1167
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:55,000
Speaker 1: for Joe Brady's first interview, he couldn't leave for anybody

1168
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:57,720
Speaker 1: else because then it would be unfair. So Josh was

1169
00:58:57,720 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 1: in it for the long haul. And I liked the Yeah,

1170
00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:06,840
Speaker 1: I like the mentality they got got into. I was surprised.

1171
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:08,320
Speaker 1: I gotta be honest with you. I didn't know all

1172
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:13,280
Speaker 1: this about Joe h It was obvious from he met

1173
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:15,720
Speaker 1: with the staff here in the building before he went

1174
00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:20,400
Speaker 1: out and faced the public media. And I didn't know

1175
00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:22,840
Speaker 1: how he it was pretty genuine. I didn't know how

1176
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:25,480
Speaker 1: he felt about Buffalo. I didn't know his.

1177
00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:27,440
Speaker 2: It's grown on him in his four years here.

1178
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:30,400
Speaker 1: Clearly I didn't know he voted. He married in uh

1179
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 1: in Buffalo.

1180
00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 30: Uh.

1181
00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:36,000
Speaker 1: You know, obviously his two little kids are his son

1182
00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:41,000
Speaker 1: and daughter are born in Buffalo. And that was nice

1183
00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:43,240
Speaker 1: to hear. And I'm sure it's nice for Bills fans

1184
00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:45,840
Speaker 1: to hear how important this job was for him. I've

1185
00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,640
Speaker 1: heard other coaches down from history back decades ago that

1186
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:54,880
Speaker 1: I had spoken to. For a lot of guys, there's

1187
00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:58,200
Speaker 1: a job they want, one job they want. It was

1188
00:59:58,280 --> 00:59:59,920
Speaker 1: kind of cool for me to hear that in the

1189
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 1: modern day from a guy who said, this is the

1190
01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:06,000
Speaker 1: job I wanted. That's pretty cool to hear.

1191
01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:08,680
Speaker 3: And Joe Brady said that Josh Allen told him after

1192
01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:11,280
Speaker 3: all was said and done, and he was the guy.

1193
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:13,960
Speaker 3: He said Josh told him, I did not help you

1194
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:14,720
Speaker 3: get this job.

1195
01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:17,040
Speaker 2: You got this job on your own.

1196
01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:18,800
Speaker 3: And just to shed a little more light on Josh

1197
01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:21,520
Speaker 3: Allen's role in this whole thing, according to Brandon Bean,

1198
01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:27,640
Speaker 3: his role was to address anything that he felt the

1199
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:33,680
Speaker 3: interviewers left out schematically, and that's where Josh would tap

1200
01:00:33,720 --> 01:00:39,560
Speaker 3: in and ask appropriate questions to better address schematic plans

1201
01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:44,440
Speaker 3: for the whole operation offense, defense special teams. And he

1202
01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:47,680
Speaker 3: was also supposed to weigh in if there was someone

1203
01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:52,120
Speaker 3: he felt that he and his fellow players would not

1204
01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:54,800
Speaker 3: mesh with. Brandon Bean said it would be silly for

1205
01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:59,200
Speaker 3: us to not tap into that. He said, Josh did

1206
01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:01,840
Speaker 3: not discuss pros and cons of each candidate.

1207
01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:05,040
Speaker 2: He would just speak up when he needed to or

1208
01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:06,120
Speaker 2: we asked him to.

1209
01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:08,360
Speaker 3: So I think that kind of sheds a little more

1210
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 3: light on exactly what Josh's role was. And in that

1211
01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:15,880
Speaker 3: meeting that you're referencing that our in house staff had

1212
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:20,960
Speaker 3: with Joe, he couldn't have complimented the way Josh handled

1213
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,560
Speaker 3: his role in the process enough. He said he was

1214
01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:26,400
Speaker 3: the ultimate professional in there. He said, if you didn't

1215
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:29,080
Speaker 3: know Josh Allen as an NFL quarterback, you wouldn't have

1216
01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:33,480
Speaker 3: known otherwise based on how he handled everything. So plenty

1217
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:36,520
Speaker 3: of kudos for Josh as well. We do have to

1218
01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:39,920
Speaker 3: step aside one more time here because when we come back,

1219
01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:43,880
Speaker 3: we're going to have Josh Allen's season ending press conference.

1220
01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 3: It was postponed at the end of the season because

1221
01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:51,280
Speaker 3: of the firing of Sean McDermott. As we all might understand,

1222
01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:54,200
Speaker 3: he is going to address the media when we return,

1223
01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 3: and it has been confirmed that he did have surgery

1224
01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:00,200
Speaker 3: on his injured foot that he played through at the

1225
01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:01,960
Speaker 3: end of the season. I'm sure we'll get more on

1226
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:04,640
Speaker 3: that as well. So Josh Allen coming your way next

1227
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 3: here on One Bill's Live. Pre anybody can I to help?

1228
01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:12,720
Speaker 3: It's Buffalo Bill's Rating. All right, back here on One

1229
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:15,760
Speaker 3: Bill's Live. We're gonna go straight to the lectern where

1230
01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:18,680
Speaker 3: Josh Allen is addressing the media.

1231
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 30: Do a little bit what you had done and what

1232
01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:24,360
Speaker 30: it's been like kind of dealing playing through that whatever

1233
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:24,720
Speaker 30: it was.

1234
01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:27,160
Speaker 31: Yeah, I had a broken, little broken bone in there,

1235
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:29,600
Speaker 31: so they went and took it out and cleaned it up.

1236
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:36,720
Speaker 31: Obviously not ideal situation, painful throughout the weeks, but again

1237
01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:39,200
Speaker 31: game day, different story. Just being able to put that

1238
01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:41,880
Speaker 31: to the side and just go out there and play football.

1239
01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:44,400
Speaker 32: Was it the Cleveland game that that happened?

1240
01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:49,040
Speaker 31: Yes, Yeah, it's not to get into the weeds of it,

1241
01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:51,880
Speaker 31: but it was. It's been been an older injury, but

1242
01:02:52,120 --> 01:02:55,959
Speaker 31: just re aggravated it there and just a little ticked

1243
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:56,440
Speaker 31: off at me.

1244
01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:58,600
Speaker 10: So what's a bone?

1245
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:03,600
Speaker 31: Uh, fifth metatarsal I think is what it's called.

1246
01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:05,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, can you.

1247
01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:10,120
Speaker 27: Spell met t? A T? A r S A L.

1248
01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:10,720
Speaker 10: I think.

1249
01:03:13,920 --> 01:03:18,160
Speaker 30: Joe Brady, obviously, you said in on all of these interviews,

1250
01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:21,160
Speaker 30: what stood out about his interview to you?

1251
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:24,439
Speaker 31: Yeah, I mean, I think the realness that he has,

1252
01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:27,120
Speaker 31: you know, I've been able to live it in the

1253
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:30,520
Speaker 31: quarterback room for the last you know, three and a

1254
01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:32,440
Speaker 31: half four seasons.

1255
01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:35,640
Speaker 27: You know, He's he's.

1256
01:03:37,320 --> 01:03:40,480
Speaker 31: A real human that guys can get behind and understand

1257
01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:44,720
Speaker 31: and and play for. I thought in his interview the

1258
01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:49,920
Speaker 31: vision that he had for this team.

1259
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:48,760
Speaker 27: You know.

1260
01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:51,120
Speaker 31: And again, I'm sitting in these interviews and it's I'm

1261
01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:53,840
Speaker 31: not the one making the decision, right, I'm I'm there

1262
01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:57,280
Speaker 31: to to inquire, to learn, to bring a different perspective

1263
01:03:57,320 --> 01:04:01,480
Speaker 31: to the decision makers that were in that room, you know,

1264
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:04,960
Speaker 31: and taking the personal out of out of it and

1265
01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:06,400
Speaker 31: taking the emotion out of it and trying to look

1266
01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:09,480
Speaker 31: at it from a logical lens. It was a unique perspective.

1267
01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:15,160
Speaker 31: It was a cool learning experience for me that you know,

1268
01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:19,360
Speaker 31: I'm very fortunate to be regarded as to being wanted

1269
01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:22,560
Speaker 31: in that room, and I don't take that lightly.

1270
01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:24,200
Speaker 27: So it was a cool experience.

1271
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:27,080
Speaker 31: It was a little awkward there at first, you know,

1272
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:30,080
Speaker 31: because I remember not too long ago, I'm sitting in

1273
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:34,440
Speaker 31: the train station at the Combine being interviewed by you know,

1274
01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:39,120
Speaker 31: coaches and owners, and to now be kind of on

1275
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:40,920
Speaker 31: the other side of the table was it was definitely

1276
01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:45,480
Speaker 31: a weird thing to to to understand. But again, I'm

1277
01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:48,920
Speaker 31: very thankful that you know, my input at least is

1278
01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:52,080
Speaker 31: is heard, and whether they used anything that I had

1279
01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:54,600
Speaker 31: to say in their decision making or not, it's just

1280
01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:55,360
Speaker 31: cool to be in that room.

1281
01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 10: Your injury, when do you expect to be out?

1282
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:01,320
Speaker 9: I guess maybe golfing.

1283
01:05:01,600 --> 01:05:03,120
Speaker 27: I mean, I'm not even lying.

1284
01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:04,760
Speaker 31: If we had to play a game this week, I

1285
01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:06,800
Speaker 31: would some I would fit figure it out to play

1286
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:09,760
Speaker 31: a game. So it's a little painful right now, but

1287
01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:12,760
Speaker 31: it's it wasn't a crazy surgery.

1288
01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:16,120
Speaker 27: Yeah, So I'm not too long.

1289
01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:18,880
Speaker 31: I'll be okays, I'll be back, And shouldn't it shouldn't

1290
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:19,440
Speaker 31: hinder anything.

1291
01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:22,080
Speaker 9: To follow up on the other thing.

1292
01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:25,000
Speaker 10: Last time when we saw you, you were very emotional

1293
01:05:25,080 --> 01:05:29,880
Speaker 10: aftervoke here. A lot has happened since. How did you

1294
01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:34,200
Speaker 10: respond when you learn the news of how how much

1295
01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:36,840
Speaker 10: more emotional did you get when you've heard the news

1296
01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:39,360
Speaker 10: of Sean It's being fired and in.

1297
01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:41,200
Speaker 27: The very very emotional.

1298
01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:43,920
Speaker 31: You know, there was a time where again I'm sitting

1299
01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 31: in my house, I wake up I to a call

1300
01:05:46,400 --> 01:05:49,800
Speaker 31: from mister Bagola telling me that it's telling me what

1301
01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:53,520
Speaker 31: it had transpired. And I called coach McDermott immediately. And

1302
01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:56,240
Speaker 31: I've got nothing but love and respect for Coach McDermott

1303
01:05:56,680 --> 01:05:59,760
Speaker 31: the last you know, eight seasons, eight years of my life.

1304
01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:02,760
Speaker 31: He's been through ups and downs of me as as

1305
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:06,080
Speaker 31: a player, as a person. You know, he's seen me

1306
01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:10,200
Speaker 31: grow up in a sense, and to know that again,

1307
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:14,280
Speaker 31: we we've had a lot of success here and you know,

1308
01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:17,320
Speaker 31: i'd be lying to you if I'm sitting here saying that,

1309
01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:20,640
Speaker 31: you know, I feel like I had part in it,

1310
01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:23,240
Speaker 31: because if we made, if I make one more play

1311
01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:27,320
Speaker 31: that game in Denver, we're probably not having this press

1312
01:06:27,320 --> 01:06:30,720
Speaker 31: conference right now. We're probably not making a change and

1313
01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:33,840
Speaker 31: all honestly, it's probably we're probably getting ready to play

1314
01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:37,640
Speaker 31: another game. And that's that's the hard part to taken

1315
01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:42,120
Speaker 31: from my perspective, but that's reality.

1316
01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:43,200
Speaker 27: It is what it is.

1317
01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:48,400
Speaker 31: Now and I am very again, very fortunate and thankful

1318
01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:50,920
Speaker 31: for Coach McDermott everything that he's done and the trajectory

1319
01:06:50,960 --> 01:06:55,160
Speaker 31: that he's set here for our players. At that same time,

1320
01:06:55,840 --> 01:07:01,040
Speaker 31: I'm very looking forward to to Joe and everything that

1321
01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:04,400
Speaker 31: entails with him becoming the head coach and guys getting

1322
01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:08,000
Speaker 31: behind him and rallying behind him and understanding his vision

1323
01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:11,840
Speaker 31: because I do believe in it. I do believe in

1324
01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:15,440
Speaker 31: what he had talked about in the meetings, what he's

1325
01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:17,520
Speaker 31: talked about really the last few years that he's been

1326
01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:20,000
Speaker 31: in the quarterback room of just the mindset that he has,

1327
01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:23,720
Speaker 31: the togetherness being you with us. I can go on

1328
01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:25,760
Speaker 31: and on about about how good of a coach I

1329
01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:28,000
Speaker 31: think Joe is, but you know, he's also a great

1330
01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:32,160
Speaker 31: human being. He's a family man, he's a leader, you know.

1331
01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:34,920
Speaker 31: And I think that our guys will respond positive positively

1332
01:07:34,960 --> 01:07:36,480
Speaker 31: to this, and you have sorry about that.

1333
01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:38,040
Speaker 9: From a human side.

1334
01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:40,400
Speaker 33: The last night we saw, he said, this is going

1335
01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:41,840
Speaker 33: to take a long time for me to get over.

1336
01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:46,080
Speaker 33: Where are you from a processing standpoint? Are you still

1337
01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:48,880
Speaker 33: trying to take it all in? Are you trying to

1338
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:49,479
Speaker 33: push it forward?

1339
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:49,600
Speaker 16: Like?

1340
01:07:49,640 --> 01:07:50,640
Speaker 9: Where where are you right now now?

1341
01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:53,680
Speaker 31: I mean, I'm still still trying to take it all in. Obviously,

1342
01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:55,920
Speaker 31: this last week and a half has been an absolute

1343
01:07:55,920 --> 01:08:00,800
Speaker 31: world wind whirlwind because of the interviews and having the

1344
01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:04,920
Speaker 31: surgery and you know, expecting a baby. You know, like

1345
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:07,680
Speaker 31: there's just so many elements that come into play, but

1346
01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:09,320
Speaker 31: just trying to take it one day at a time.

1347
01:08:10,040 --> 01:08:11,360
Speaker 31: But you know, i'd be lying to you if I

1348
01:08:11,360 --> 01:08:13,240
Speaker 31: didn't say that I'm still sick to my sick to

1349
01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:16,920
Speaker 31: my stomach about how the season ended, you know, And

1350
01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:20,720
Speaker 31: it's it's again, we live in reality and it is

1351
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:22,120
Speaker 31: what it is now and we have to come to

1352
01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:24,599
Speaker 31: grips with that. And I feel like as days go by,

1353
01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:29,040
Speaker 31: I'd become more in touch with reality and again just

1354
01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:33,439
Speaker 31: trying to do whatever it takes to one move forward,

1355
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:38,120
Speaker 31: but too to understand how to get past you know,

1356
01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:42,040
Speaker 31: what we're trying to get past, And obviously we want

1357
01:08:42,040 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 31: to win a super Bowl here.

1358
01:08:42,960 --> 01:08:44,080
Speaker 27: That's that's my main goal.

1359
01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:47,800
Speaker 31: And everything that I do, everything I've done, really, but

1360
01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:50,479
Speaker 31: everything that I continue to do moving forward is going

1361
01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,400
Speaker 31: to be tailored around what can I do to help

1362
01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:54,800
Speaker 31: this team win the Super Bowl and making sure that

1363
01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:57,120
Speaker 31: you know, I know that we heard Joe and being

1364
01:08:57,160 --> 01:09:00,240
Speaker 31: talk about alignment, but making sure that I'm alive with

1365
01:09:00,360 --> 01:09:02,040
Speaker 31: Joe and if there's anything that I can do to

1366
01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:04,920
Speaker 31: help him as a head coach slash play caller, if

1367
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:08,360
Speaker 31: it's more meeting time, if it's more walkthroughs with the guys,

1368
01:09:08,360 --> 01:09:11,600
Speaker 31: whatever the case may be. And he, you know, I

1369
01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:14,720
Speaker 31: looked at him the other day and he promised me,

1370
01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:16,519
Speaker 31: and I promised him to hold each other to a

1371
01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:19,960
Speaker 31: standard and hold each other accountable and not get complacent

1372
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:23,880
Speaker 31: of where we're at. So I'm very very much looking

1373
01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:29,040
Speaker 31: forward to that challenge and continuing the chase and to

1374
01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:31,280
Speaker 31: chase something great, and that is to bring a Lombardi

1375
01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:32,360
Speaker 31: Trophy here to Western New.

1376
01:09:32,360 --> 01:09:36,600
Speaker 26: York Conference in Denver. How it had been all the

1377
01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:40,320
Speaker 26: long season, and that was clearly contributing to your emotions. Like,

1378
01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:43,320
Speaker 26: what about this season in particular like stood out.

1379
01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:43,880
Speaker 6: To you in that way.

1380
01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:47,800
Speaker 31: I mean some some of the injury stuff, battling through it,

1381
01:09:49,520 --> 01:09:53,679
Speaker 31: you know, again, just learning curves of trends across the league,

1382
01:09:53,720 --> 01:09:57,840
Speaker 31: how how we're winning, you know, some tough losses, but

1383
01:09:58,120 --> 01:10:01,160
Speaker 31: again some some games that we ended up winning at

1384
01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:03,559
Speaker 31: the end that maybe we shouldn't have been in and

1385
01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:06,879
Speaker 31: again staying through it. Those those games take an emotional

1386
01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:08,439
Speaker 31: toll on you when you're just sitting there, wait and

1387
01:10:08,520 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 31: wait and waiting for your chance to strike, and we

1388
01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:13,640
Speaker 31: were fortunate to I think win more more than not.

1389
01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:17,160
Speaker 31: You know, throughout the regular season, you know, we didn't

1390
01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 31: win our division for the first time in the last

1391
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:22,160
Speaker 31: so many years, you know, coming to grips with that

1392
01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:24,280
Speaker 31: of all right, just get us in the dance, get

1393
01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:26,200
Speaker 31: us a chance in the playoffs. And you know, we

1394
01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:27,840
Speaker 31: felt like we had a chance, and we felt like

1395
01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:30,559
Speaker 31: we had the team and I still believe that we

1396
01:10:30,600 --> 01:10:32,320
Speaker 31: had the team to win the Super Bowl. And again

1397
01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:35,120
Speaker 31: we didn't make one more play. And that's that's pointing

1398
01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:39,679
Speaker 31: the thumb right at me. So again, everything moving forward

1399
01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:42,960
Speaker 31: is again, how do we clean How do I clean

1400
01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:45,200
Speaker 31: my stuff up? How do I be the best quarterback,

1401
01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:46,960
Speaker 31: the best teammate, the best leader that I can be

1402
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:49,360
Speaker 31: for the Buffalo Bills moving forward? What does that look like?

1403
01:10:49,640 --> 01:10:53,080
Speaker 31: It's asking questions, it's being uncomfortable with some of those

1404
01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:56,360
Speaker 31: answers and then adapting and moving forward based on that.

1405
01:10:56,840 --> 01:10:58,880
Speaker 34: I should as well as you know Joe, were there

1406
01:10:59,040 --> 01:11:01,519
Speaker 34: moments you were listening to him when they were going

1407
01:11:01,560 --> 01:11:04,880
Speaker 34: into detail that surprised you or things you didn't know,

1408
01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:07,800
Speaker 34: and then he realized those were the things maybe that

1409
01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:09,439
Speaker 34: put him over the top to be.

1410
01:11:09,400 --> 01:11:09,960
Speaker 9: The head coach.

1411
01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:13,040
Speaker 31: Yeah, I mean, I think again talking about that lens Of,

1412
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:16,040
Speaker 31: let's go into this interview not knowing who he is,

1413
01:11:16,920 --> 01:11:20,320
Speaker 31: learning more about his his family life, some of the

1414
01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:22,599
Speaker 31: stops that he's had along the way, what he's learned

1415
01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:28,160
Speaker 31: among those stops, and really just the mindset of why

1416
01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:30,360
Speaker 31: he does what he does. And when he talks about

1417
01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:33,320
Speaker 31: the sacrifice that you know, his his wife and his

1418
01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:36,840
Speaker 31: family have to make, he works tirelessly. He is in

1419
01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:42,559
Speaker 31: the building, dang there all day and that's not going

1420
01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:44,840
Speaker 31: to stop. He's going to continue to keep working hard

1421
01:11:44,840 --> 01:11:48,960
Speaker 31: and trying to find ways for our team now to

1422
01:11:48,960 --> 01:11:52,840
Speaker 31: be put in successful positions, you know. And he's he's

1423
01:11:52,960 --> 01:11:54,680
Speaker 31: very much driven by that. And when he says he

1424
01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:57,040
Speaker 31: loves the work, he truly loves the work. He loves football,

1425
01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:59,280
Speaker 31: He loves this game. He loves the players, and that's

1426
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:03,240
Speaker 31: very evident meetings and I think you know, when he's

1427
01:12:03,280 --> 01:12:05,840
Speaker 31: in front of our defense and our special teams players

1428
01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:08,599
Speaker 31: as well as our offense, people are going to understand

1429
01:12:08,600 --> 01:12:11,200
Speaker 31: that that that the love is real and that the

1430
01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:14,280
Speaker 31: want to win and the want to bring a trophy

1431
01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:15,679
Speaker 31: here to Western New York is real.

1432
01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:18,920
Speaker 27: So yeah, I'm looking forward to it simplifying.

1433
01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:20,599
Speaker 9: But why do you think he got the job?

1434
01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:25,920
Speaker 31: I mean, I again, just the personality that he has,

1435
01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:29,320
Speaker 31: the vision that he has, the way that he interviewed.

1436
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:32,439
Speaker 31: It was he wasn't lying when it was a rigorous interview.

1437
01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:35,280
Speaker 31: It was it was intense. Some of those questions were

1438
01:12:35,320 --> 01:12:37,519
Speaker 31: uncomfortable to be in there and to listen to him again,

1439
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:39,519
Speaker 31: I'm sitting there, I'm in a room with him for

1440
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:41,400
Speaker 31: two and a half years, three years, whatever it is.

1441
01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:46,040
Speaker 31: I'm his quarterback and and in his quarterback room, you know,

1442
01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:48,320
Speaker 31: and and to to hear him have to answer some

1443
01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:51,760
Speaker 31: of these tough questions and to he handled them like

1444
01:12:51,800 --> 01:12:55,120
Speaker 31: a true professional. And again he said it in his

1445
01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:57,920
Speaker 31: press conference, you don't get head coaching experience without being

1446
01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:01,960
Speaker 31: a head coach, right, So at some point everyone that's

1447
01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:04,240
Speaker 31: been a head coach was a head coach for the

1448
01:13:04,240 --> 01:13:07,360
Speaker 31: first time at some point. And it's his time now.

1449
01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:12,200
Speaker 31: And I think the vision, the work ethic, you know,

1450
01:13:12,280 --> 01:13:14,960
Speaker 31: his track record. You know, you look at the offense

1451
01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:19,320
Speaker 31: in terms of you know, advanced analytics and statistics, it's

1452
01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:23,080
Speaker 31: constantly you know, one, two, three, in being near every

1453
01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:28,000
Speaker 31: category that's that's among the most important that that help

1454
01:13:28,040 --> 01:13:29,400
Speaker 31: your team win football games.

1455
01:13:30,800 --> 01:13:34,720
Speaker 30: Few fan bases in sports are as connected to a

1456
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:37,840
Speaker 30: singular player as Bills fans are to you. I think

1457
01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:40,760
Speaker 30: with all of the last week or so, there's just

1458
01:13:40,800 --> 01:13:43,559
Speaker 30: been a panic about where you sit on the direction

1459
01:13:43,640 --> 01:13:46,240
Speaker 30: of the organization. If you could speak to the fans

1460
01:13:46,520 --> 01:13:49,160
Speaker 30: and where you're at, what would you.

1461
01:13:49,120 --> 01:13:49,599
Speaker 9: Say to them?

1462
01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:52,160
Speaker 31: Yeah that I again, I was able to sit in

1463
01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:58,120
Speaker 31: these meetings at a at a unique perspective. But what

1464
01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:00,600
Speaker 31: I saw was an owner and mister Book and a

1465
01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:04,320
Speaker 31: family that that is doing everything that they can to

1466
01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:07,040
Speaker 31: help this team win a Lombardi Trophy and bring bring

1467
01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:09,600
Speaker 31: a trophy here to Western New York. I see a

1468
01:14:09,680 --> 01:14:13,240
Speaker 31: GM that is as motivated as ever to do the same.

1469
01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:16,280
Speaker 31: And now I see a head coach that will relay

1470
01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:20,320
Speaker 31: this message to the team and to myself to get

1471
01:14:20,320 --> 01:14:27,160
Speaker 31: everybody together in pulling in one singular direction. And I

1472
01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:31,640
Speaker 31: think that's that's what's needed. You know, is as as

1473
01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:33,960
Speaker 31: much success we've had over the last you know, eight

1474
01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:36,400
Speaker 31: to nine seasons, we still haven't been able to get

1475
01:14:36,680 --> 01:14:39,880
Speaker 31: get the main job done. So again, what does that

1476
01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:44,439
Speaker 31: look like? Who's involved in those those decisions of of

1477
01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:47,599
Speaker 31: what it looks like. But I I truly believe in

1478
01:14:47,640 --> 01:14:50,840
Speaker 31: the direction of this organization starting from the top. And

1479
01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:54,080
Speaker 31: I think that uh again, whatever Joe needs for me,

1480
01:14:54,120 --> 01:14:57,000
Speaker 31: I'm gonna do and and I think that it's it's

1481
01:14:57,040 --> 01:14:59,520
Speaker 31: the right decision for this organization.

1482
01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:04,360
Speaker 15: Joe, what stood out about coach Brady's offensive philosophies and

1483
01:15:04,479 --> 01:15:05,960
Speaker 15: how do you expect him to challenge you as a

1484
01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:07,160
Speaker 15: quarterback as well as the lead?

1485
01:15:07,560 --> 01:15:09,240
Speaker 31: Yeah, I mean, I think again, he talked about it

1486
01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:11,360
Speaker 31: in his press conference. There's a way to win every game,

1487
01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:17,320
Speaker 31: and I guess understanding what those ways are at the

1488
01:15:17,360 --> 01:15:21,719
Speaker 31: beginning of the week, you know, and to hear different

1489
01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:25,120
Speaker 31: perspectives throughout this this interview process. We we talked to

1490
01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:28,640
Speaker 31: a lot of different coaches, some some bright minds, some

1491
01:15:28,680 --> 01:15:30,360
Speaker 31: guys that have been around the game for a long time.

1492
01:15:30,439 --> 01:15:33,680
Speaker 31: Some newer minds too that have a fresh, unique perspective

1493
01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:38,320
Speaker 31: about this game as well. But making sure that everyone

1494
01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:42,599
Speaker 31: from training staff to weight room staff, to sports science

1495
01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:47,160
Speaker 31: staff to equipment staff, everybody is in the right spots

1496
01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:52,000
Speaker 31: and giving their input when needed and pulling together to

1497
01:15:52,160 --> 01:15:56,360
Speaker 31: ultimately help each player in this locker room be their

1498
01:15:56,400 --> 01:15:58,519
Speaker 31: best and I think that's that's the number one thing

1499
01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:01,519
Speaker 31: that Joe once is for everybody to go out there

1500
01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:04,479
Speaker 31: and play at the top top of their their level

1501
01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:07,600
Speaker 31: that they can. But there's so many different components that

1502
01:16:07,640 --> 01:16:09,680
Speaker 31: go into it that I don't think many people understand.

1503
01:16:09,680 --> 01:16:12,640
Speaker 31: But again, it takes it takes everyone in this organization

1504
01:16:12,720 --> 01:16:15,559
Speaker 31: to do that, from the food that we put into

1505
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:20,719
Speaker 31: our bodies to like I said, sports science saying, hey,

1506
01:16:21,040 --> 01:16:22,720
Speaker 31: some guys are in the red today, we can't push

1507
01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:25,160
Speaker 31: them as much. Let's let's be smart about what we're doing.

1508
01:16:26,760 --> 01:16:30,960
Speaker 31: And I truly believe that Joe will be the catalyst

1509
01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:33,559
Speaker 31: to get everybody on the same page and working as

1510
01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,960
Speaker 31: one continuous movement, like for you.

1511
01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:39,759
Speaker 22: And to be a part of the process by listening

1512
01:16:39,800 --> 01:16:42,559
Speaker 22: to people maybe you had never met before and hearing

1513
01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:46,040
Speaker 22: things and just being in the room in those discussions.

1514
01:16:46,120 --> 01:16:46,920
Speaker 27: No, it was really cool.

1515
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:49,080
Speaker 31: I took a lot away from it, took a lot

1516
01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:53,639
Speaker 31: of notes, you know, just understanding how maybe some other

1517
01:16:53,680 --> 01:16:58,000
Speaker 31: places do things from an organizational standpoint of of how

1518
01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:02,000
Speaker 31: things are structured throughout the entire world. Week two ideas

1519
01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:05,920
Speaker 31: within offenses and defenses. You know, what, what can we

1520
01:17:05,960 --> 01:17:07,080
Speaker 31: implement here?

1521
01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:07,680
Speaker 17: You know, and.

1522
01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:12,759
Speaker 31: Again to have kind of you talk about mister Bula

1523
01:17:12,800 --> 01:17:15,120
Speaker 31: and being in that meeting, but to have a guy

1524
01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:16,840
Speaker 31: that's in the locker room and the pulse of the

1525
01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:18,960
Speaker 31: locker room and to be that voice. I think it

1526
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:21,000
Speaker 31: was really cool to understand like, hey, what this guy

1527
01:17:21,040 --> 01:17:23,720
Speaker 31: is saying, it's real, you know, guys understand that, or

1528
01:17:23,920 --> 01:17:26,080
Speaker 31: being able like guys don't really care about that as

1529
01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:30,040
Speaker 31: much as they would think so too. Again, just to

1530
01:17:30,080 --> 01:17:33,080
Speaker 31: have any input there that helped them make the right decision.

1531
01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:36,080
Speaker 31: I felt like that was my responsibility in terms of

1532
01:17:36,880 --> 01:17:40,960
Speaker 31: understanding what the guys can adhere to and be in

1533
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:41,519
Speaker 31: the voice for.

1534
01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:45,760
Speaker 9: Them in your involvement of that process. How did that start?

1535
01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:47,800
Speaker 9: Was that you asking Brandon and Terry to be a

1536
01:17:47,800 --> 01:17:48,960
Speaker 9: part of it or did they come to you?

1537
01:17:49,240 --> 01:17:53,559
Speaker 31: They came to me, you know again, I'm my point

1538
01:17:53,640 --> 01:17:56,080
Speaker 31: is is I'm the quarterback, right I I need to

1539
01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:59,439
Speaker 31: go out there and play my best and do whatever

1540
01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:02,840
Speaker 31: it takes to to help win games, you know. And

1541
01:18:02,880 --> 01:18:05,800
Speaker 31: it's again I'm still working on and trying to get

1542
01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:08,360
Speaker 31: better each and every day. But from their point of view,

1543
01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:11,400
Speaker 31: and this is like in most organizations, the quarterback is

1544
01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:15,120
Speaker 31: one of if not the highest paid person in the building, right,

1545
01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:21,240
Speaker 31: So to have the the hand on experience in like

1546
01:18:21,280 --> 01:18:23,240
Speaker 31: I said, the voice of the locker room and understanding

1547
01:18:23,240 --> 01:18:25,200
Speaker 31: the pulse and the vibe of guys, how would how

1548
01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:27,960
Speaker 31: would they mesh with certain candidates as their head coach,

1549
01:18:29,960 --> 01:18:32,240
Speaker 31: Like I said, it's been a unique perspective. But just

1550
01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:36,439
Speaker 31: to for them to approach me and understand that I

1551
01:18:36,479 --> 01:18:39,000
Speaker 31: can be that for them, I don't take lightly and

1552
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:41,080
Speaker 31: I really appreciate them for allowing me to be a

1553
01:18:41,120 --> 01:18:43,400
Speaker 31: part of the part of this process. Again, I didn't

1554
01:18:43,600 --> 01:18:47,040
Speaker 31: I didn't make any decisions. I just allowed them to

1555
01:18:47,040 --> 01:18:50,559
Speaker 31: maybe ask questions into a to a player's lens that

1556
01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:52,280
Speaker 31: maybe they wouldn't have had if I wasn't there.

1557
01:18:53,720 --> 01:18:56,160
Speaker 6: It is to what maybe some of those questions that

1558
01:18:56,280 --> 01:18:58,240
Speaker 6: you brought up were just along.

1559
01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:00,639
Speaker 25: This process with any of the candidates, were the things

1560
01:19:00,680 --> 01:19:03,200
Speaker 25: that you need to hear from whoever this organization was.

1561
01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:05,000
Speaker 31: Going to pick us in that said coach, Yeah, I

1562
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:07,960
Speaker 31: think just uh, we know we talk a lot about vision.

1563
01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:10,559
Speaker 31: You know what, what do you see this this version

1564
01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:15,360
Speaker 31: of the buffalo bills being whether it's scheduling of you know,

1565
01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:19,879
Speaker 31: this is how guys feel about our schedule as it stands,

1566
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:23,479
Speaker 31: Are we making any tweaks? Are we know being made

1567
01:19:23,520 --> 01:19:26,479
Speaker 31: that joke about eating eating lunch, but that that's a

1568
01:19:26,520 --> 01:19:29,360
Speaker 31: real thing too, Like when is lunch? Guys need to

1569
01:19:29,600 --> 01:19:33,439
Speaker 31: understand that because you know, whether it's before practice, after practice,

1570
01:19:33,479 --> 01:19:39,360
Speaker 31: you prepare differently, whether it's flights and and just really again,

1571
01:19:39,439 --> 01:19:43,120
Speaker 31: what what players care about? How how can players be

1572
01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:46,759
Speaker 31: their best when it comes down to Sunday, Monday, or Thursday,

1573
01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:49,719
Speaker 31: whenever we're playing, and having that point of view from

1574
01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:52,400
Speaker 31: for myself that I could relay that information to them.

1575
01:19:52,640 --> 01:19:55,479
Speaker 8: Josh, you guys led the league this year in run attempts,

1576
01:19:55,520 --> 01:19:57,200
Speaker 8: and I don't know part of that is because you

1577
01:19:57,280 --> 01:19:58,120
Speaker 8: take off and run.

1578
01:19:58,200 --> 01:20:01,800
Speaker 32: But as a quarterback, do you think moving forward now?

1579
01:20:02,320 --> 01:20:04,679
Speaker 32: And maybe it's a philosophy change that Sean's not here,

1580
01:20:04,720 --> 01:20:07,120
Speaker 32: but do you need to be throwing the ball more

1581
01:20:07,320 --> 01:20:10,559
Speaker 32: like maybe be fifth in run attempts given you know

1582
01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:11,320
Speaker 32: you're the quarterback?

1583
01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:12,880
Speaker 9: I mean, do you need to be passing the ballboard?

1584
01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:13,280
Speaker 10: Do you think?

1585
01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:16,680
Speaker 31: Again, it's tell me the situation of the game, tell me,

1586
01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:19,680
Speaker 31: tell me who we're playing, tell me. And I think

1587
01:20:19,760 --> 01:20:22,920
Speaker 31: Joe alluded to it again, our mindset is you're gonna

1588
01:20:22,920 --> 01:20:26,000
Speaker 31: have to play us, right, So whether that means we're

1589
01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:28,320
Speaker 31: throwing more or we're gonna say, hey, we're gonna go

1590
01:20:28,360 --> 01:20:30,920
Speaker 31: to thirteen personnel, we're gonna run until you stop it, right.

1591
01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:33,960
Speaker 31: And I think throughout each game there's a different vibe,

1592
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:36,160
Speaker 31: a different flow that you have to understand and find

1593
01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:37,479
Speaker 31: out through that game.

1594
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:39,200
Speaker 27: And you have a good idea.

1595
01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:40,880
Speaker 31: Before the game of what it's going to look like

1596
01:20:40,920 --> 01:20:43,760
Speaker 31: and one it's going to be until it's not right.

1597
01:20:43,840 --> 01:20:48,200
Speaker 31: So it's a it's a it's adjusting, it's adapting. Now

1598
01:20:48,240 --> 01:20:50,559
Speaker 31: if I'm sitting here saying I love throwing the ball,

1599
01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:52,960
Speaker 31: don't get me wrong. I love completing, completing the ball

1600
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:56,200
Speaker 31: and pushing the ball downfield when those opportunities arise. And

1601
01:20:56,240 --> 01:20:58,599
Speaker 31: I think that again putting our guys in the best

1602
01:20:58,600 --> 01:21:01,400
Speaker 31: spots to do that. But I couldn't sit here and

1603
01:21:01,439 --> 01:21:03,880
Speaker 31: tell you you know, the secret to success is being

1604
01:21:03,920 --> 01:21:05,880
Speaker 31: fifth in rush attempts, or it's being second, or it's

1605
01:21:05,920 --> 01:21:08,200
Speaker 31: being thirty second. I don't think we want to live

1606
01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:09,920
Speaker 31: in that world where it's just throw it on every

1607
01:21:09,960 --> 01:21:13,680
Speaker 31: single play. There is a fine, delicate balance to it,

1608
01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:16,840
Speaker 31: and then being able to run and pass and use

1609
01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:19,920
Speaker 31: the play action game off of that. But again, I

1610
01:21:19,960 --> 01:21:23,439
Speaker 31: think throughout each game there's a different flow that you

1611
01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:25,240
Speaker 31: have to adjust to, and I think that's what we

1612
01:21:25,280 --> 01:21:28,080
Speaker 31: did this year, every being part.

1613
01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:29,320
Speaker 9: Of the decision making process.

1614
01:21:29,800 --> 01:21:33,960
Speaker 15: Every quarterbacks coach has been elevated to the offensive coordinator

1615
01:21:34,640 --> 01:21:37,160
Speaker 15: from now that stands to be even round Curry's position.

1616
01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:39,080
Speaker 6: What are your thoughts about him, you know, being a

1617
01:21:39,080 --> 01:21:40,280
Speaker 6: part of that interview.

1618
01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:42,360
Speaker 31: Process, And yeah, I love arc I think he's helped

1619
01:21:42,360 --> 01:21:45,920
Speaker 31: out a lot in the quarterback room, the vibe that

1620
01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:48,000
Speaker 31: he has, the trust that he has in our in

1621
01:21:48,040 --> 01:21:51,879
Speaker 31: our guys. I couldn't tell you what that interview process

1622
01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:54,360
Speaker 31: is going to look like, but I've got so much

1623
01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:55,880
Speaker 31: love and respect Farcie.

1624
01:21:56,200 --> 01:21:59,559
Speaker 29: Josh with with your involvement in this being at a

1625
01:21:59,560 --> 01:22:01,840
Speaker 29: at a level that isn't maybe common around the league

1626
01:22:01,840 --> 01:22:06,040
Speaker 29: for a player, how much pressure comes along with that

1627
01:22:06,200 --> 01:22:08,880
Speaker 29: to make sure that this is the right right hire

1628
01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:10,360
Speaker 29: for the team.

1629
01:22:11,080 --> 01:22:12,760
Speaker 31: I don't really see it as that, to be honest,

1630
01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:16,560
Speaker 31: I don't see much pressure because I fully believe in

1631
01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:19,880
Speaker 31: who we hired. I fully believe in the direction that

1632
01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:24,760
Speaker 31: coach will take us. And again, it's always going to

1633
01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:26,679
Speaker 31: be my job to go out there and play quarterback

1634
01:22:26,680 --> 01:22:29,320
Speaker 31: to the best of my ability, and to have someone

1635
01:22:29,439 --> 01:22:31,000
Speaker 31: again that I trust that I've been in the room

1636
01:22:31,040 --> 01:22:34,519
Speaker 31: with the last few years and understand, you know, he's

1637
01:22:34,520 --> 01:22:36,280
Speaker 31: gonna hold me to a very high standard and I

1638
01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:37,600
Speaker 31: very much welcome that.

1639
01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:39,320
Speaker 27: I want that.

1640
01:22:40,080 --> 01:22:44,280
Speaker 31: And again, our our number one goal here, I think,

1641
01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:48,400
Speaker 31: from top to bottom is we want to win a

1642
01:22:48,439 --> 01:22:51,760
Speaker 31: Super Bowl and whatever it takes to get it done

1643
01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:56,160
Speaker 31: is how we want it to look. So that's that's

1644
01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:59,080
Speaker 31: where you know, that's where we're aligned, and that's what

1645
01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:00,000
Speaker 31: we're going to try to do here.

1646
01:23:00,520 --> 01:23:03,679
Speaker 29: Just about the last three years, you guys on offensive

1647
01:23:03,680 --> 01:23:05,679
Speaker 29: had the ball late in games, a chance to tire

1648
01:23:05,880 --> 01:23:08,519
Speaker 29: or maybe take the lead and potentially win it, and

1649
01:23:08,680 --> 01:23:11,120
Speaker 29: have been unable to come through in those situations. Has

1650
01:23:11,160 --> 01:23:15,080
Speaker 29: there anything that has stood out to you in those

1651
01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:16,439
Speaker 29: situations that has led to that.

1652
01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:19,280
Speaker 27: In terms of throughout the season or no.

1653
01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:22,519
Speaker 29: Just in those moments in those you know, the last

1654
01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:25,559
Speaker 29: drives against you know, in the three elimination games.

1655
01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:29,400
Speaker 31: Yeah, again, Yeah, opportunities there that that I have to

1656
01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:32,400
Speaker 31: be better. You know, I take that upon myself, and

1657
01:23:32,439 --> 01:23:36,400
Speaker 31: I don't say that lightly. Hence to why I was

1658
01:23:36,400 --> 01:23:39,280
Speaker 31: so emotional after the game because there's there's plays that

1659
01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:43,400
Speaker 31: just constantly go over in my mind still to this

1660
01:23:43,560 --> 01:23:46,639
Speaker 31: day of just like if I if I just get

1661
01:23:46,680 --> 01:23:48,720
Speaker 31: my feet a little bit better, set here and throw

1662
01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:51,200
Speaker 31: this ball, it's on the money. And who knows what

1663
01:23:51,200 --> 01:23:54,840
Speaker 31: we're doing today. Maybe we're preparing for, you know, a

1664
01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:58,120
Speaker 31: super Bowl game. So that's never going to change. I'm

1665
01:23:58,120 --> 01:24:00,439
Speaker 31: gonna continue to work on my process and continue to

1666
01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:02,160
Speaker 31: try to find ways to be the best quarterback that

1667
01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:05,880
Speaker 31: I can be, you know, and that starts with getting

1668
01:24:05,880 --> 01:24:09,519
Speaker 31: my foot fixed and now finding wayte to again, how

1669
01:24:09,560 --> 01:24:12,320
Speaker 31: can I get better mechanically? How do I get in

1670
01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:14,920
Speaker 31: with Joe and understand our offense and to an even

1671
01:24:14,960 --> 01:24:15,679
Speaker 31: deeper level.

1672
01:24:16,160 --> 01:24:17,639
Speaker 27: And Uh, That's what I'm gonna do.

1673
01:24:19,400 --> 01:24:19,519
Speaker 4: There.

1674
01:24:20,080 --> 01:24:21,160
Speaker 9: I'm sure you're well aware of it.

1675
01:24:21,200 --> 01:24:25,920
Speaker 10: But there's a lot of made about Kean Colvin from

1676
01:24:26,080 --> 01:24:28,879
Speaker 10: the news conference that happened last week, and.

1677
01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:30,439
Speaker 9: I just wondering if you reached out to him.

1678
01:24:30,479 --> 01:24:33,040
Speaker 10: There's thoughts that, you know, maybe he doesn't come back

1679
01:24:33,040 --> 01:24:35,400
Speaker 10: from that, and what are your thoughts on on on

1680
01:24:35,479 --> 01:24:38,719
Speaker 10: that whole situation, your perspective if you can share.

1681
01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:40,760
Speaker 31: He will come back from that. I'm not going to

1682
01:24:40,800 --> 01:24:48,280
Speaker 31: give up on zero. He's got too much ability, you know,

1683
01:24:48,640 --> 01:24:51,400
Speaker 31: and I will not give up on him. We're gonna

1684
01:24:51,400 --> 01:24:54,000
Speaker 31: we're gonna work tirelessly, him and me and sell as

1685
01:24:54,040 --> 01:24:57,519
Speaker 31: everybody else in this building to make sure that whenever

1686
01:24:57,560 --> 01:24:59,760
Speaker 31: we step foot on the field that we're gonna we're

1687
01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:01,320
Speaker 31: gonna find ways to win football games.

1688
01:25:01,360 --> 01:25:02,640
Speaker 27: And he's gonna be a part of that.

1689
01:25:03,720 --> 01:25:06,960
Speaker 3: All right, that's Josh Allen addressing the media. That's his

1690
01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:11,600
Speaker 3: season ending press conference, which was obviously postponed after the

1691
01:25:11,640 --> 01:25:14,240
Speaker 3: firing of head coach Sean McDermott. But now he has

1692
01:25:14,280 --> 01:25:16,680
Speaker 3: a new head coach, one with whom he's very familiar

1693
01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:19,080
Speaker 3: since he sat in the quarterback room with him for

1694
01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:21,439
Speaker 3: the better part of the last four years, as well

1695
01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:24,719
Speaker 3: as offensive meeting rooms. But we have to take another

1696
01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:28,040
Speaker 3: break here and then we'll see where the Josh Allen

1697
01:25:28,080 --> 01:25:32,000
Speaker 3: press conference stands. If it's over, we will finally get

1698
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:34,200
Speaker 3: an opportunity to discuss things with you and what your

1699
01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:36,800
Speaker 3: biggest takeaways were from today's press conference. Here on One

1700
01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:38,719
Speaker 3: Bill's Live, presented by a lot of health It's Buffalo

01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:39,280
Speaker 3: Bills Radio.

1702
01:25:44,320 --> 01:25:46,800
Speaker 2: All right, back here on one Bill's Live. After three

1703
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:47,000
Speaker 2: of the.

1704
01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:49,960
Speaker 3: Most important people in the Bills organization address the media

1705
01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:54,160
Speaker 3: today and we'll review briefly in case you missed Josh

1706
01:25:54,160 --> 01:25:57,600
Speaker 3: Allen's press conference that we just aired here live. He

1707
01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:00,679
Speaker 3: confirmed he'll be back for OTAs and that foot surgery

1708
01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:04,280
Speaker 3: on his fifth metatarsal will not hinder his preparations for

1709
01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:06,680
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty sixth season. He said it was a

1710
01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:09,920
Speaker 3: previous injury that got reaggravated.

1711
01:26:09,479 --> 01:26:11,560
Speaker 2: In the Cleveland game in Week sixteen.

1712
01:26:12,320 --> 01:26:15,800
Speaker 3: Said he was thankful and fortunate that he had Sean

1713
01:26:15,880 --> 01:26:19,479
Speaker 3: McDermott as a head coach. Also said he's excited about

1714
01:26:19,560 --> 01:26:22,640
Speaker 3: rallying behind Joe Brady and believing in his vision. He

1715
01:26:22,720 --> 01:26:27,360
Speaker 3: said his mindset on togetherness and being you with us

1716
01:26:28,040 --> 01:26:31,679
Speaker 3: is a vision he can get behind. Said he developed

1717
01:26:31,680 --> 01:26:34,920
Speaker 3: a newfound respect for him as a family man, as

1718
01:26:34,960 --> 01:26:37,599
Speaker 3: a leader, and he thinks the guys in the locker

1719
01:26:37,680 --> 01:26:42,480
Speaker 3: room will respond positively to this. He did admit personally

1720
01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:44,040
Speaker 3: that the last week and a half has been a

1721
01:26:44,040 --> 01:26:48,320
Speaker 3: whirlwind with the coaching interviews, having the surgery, and expecting

1722
01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:51,240
Speaker 3: a baby. Said he'd be lying to you if he

1723
01:26:51,320 --> 01:26:54,120
Speaker 3: wasn't sick to his stomach about how the season ended.

1724
01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:59,160
Speaker 3: Even now, but he said he is slowly accepting reality

1725
01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:03,120
Speaker 3: and is dedicated to doing whatever it takes to move

1726
01:27:03,160 --> 01:27:06,519
Speaker 3: forward and understand that they will have to do some

1727
01:27:06,680 --> 01:27:10,400
Speaker 3: things differently to get past where they have been the

1728
01:27:10,479 --> 01:27:12,760
Speaker 3: last several years. He said, everything I do is going

1729
01:27:12,800 --> 01:27:16,719
Speaker 3: to be tailored to how we can win a Super Bowl.

1730
01:27:16,920 --> 01:27:20,880
Speaker 2: What were your thoughts on some of what Josh said today?

1731
01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:24,240
Speaker 1: Well, you know how joh I mean, we see Josh

1732
01:27:24,320 --> 01:27:26,479
Speaker 1: all the time in front of the media, so he

1733
01:27:26,560 --> 01:27:29,280
Speaker 1: handled it extremely well, just like he you would expect

1734
01:27:29,320 --> 01:27:32,160
Speaker 1: him to. I thought it was interesting that he told

1735
01:27:32,240 --> 01:27:34,240
Speaker 1: Joe Brady that I didn't get you your job, bro,

1736
01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:38,200
Speaker 1: you got it. And from the words that we spoke,

1737
01:27:38,280 --> 01:27:42,400
Speaker 1: both in the staff meeting before all the press conferences

1738
01:27:42,439 --> 01:27:45,240
Speaker 1: began and also in obviously in the public press conference,

1739
01:27:47,760 --> 01:27:50,200
Speaker 1: they were all impressed with Joe and his vision for

1740
01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:54,360
Speaker 1: how the team should be, you know, should evolve. Joe

1741
01:27:54,360 --> 01:27:58,160
Speaker 1: did a great job of giving correct respect and admiration

1742
01:27:58,280 --> 01:28:00,360
Speaker 1: and a lot of affection for Sean mcderny and what

1743
01:28:00,400 --> 01:28:02,599
Speaker 1: he did for the team, what he has meant to

1744
01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:04,599
Speaker 1: and what he taught him about culture and the whole.

1745
01:28:04,400 --> 01:28:06,400
Speaker 2: Thing, and the opportunity he provided to him.

1746
01:28:06,240 --> 01:28:09,000
Speaker 1: And yeah, and the job he gave him. Uh and

1747
01:28:10,200 --> 01:28:14,639
Speaker 1: so that was that was great to hear. And yeah,

1748
01:28:14,680 --> 01:28:16,680
Speaker 1: and there was a little bit of the old you know,

1749
01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:19,360
Speaker 1: roster this roster, that how's your offense gonna look? How's

1750
01:28:19,360 --> 01:28:22,439
Speaker 1: it going to change? The media trying to you know,

1751
01:28:22,479 --> 01:28:24,960
Speaker 1: get him to talk about, you know, the players and stuff,

1752
01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:30,160
Speaker 1: and it's just for people who play and coach it.

1753
01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:33,280
Speaker 1: It's obvious your your offense looks like it's best players

1754
01:28:33,320 --> 01:28:34,880
Speaker 1: and the guys who are going to be productive. That's

1755
01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:37,479
Speaker 1: what your offense is going to look like. So with

1756
01:28:37,520 --> 01:28:39,799
Speaker 1: the tight ends and running backs, Josh and the offensive

1757
01:28:39,800 --> 01:28:41,320
Speaker 1: line the way it is, that's the way the offense

1758
01:28:41,400 --> 01:28:44,000
Speaker 1: was going to look this last year. And your offensive

1759
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:48,120
Speaker 1: coordinator without these big play wide receivers on the outside,

1760
01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:52,639
Speaker 1: was number two in the league at explosive plays. That's

1761
01:28:52,680 --> 01:28:56,240
Speaker 1: figuring it out. That's all. That's a big that's a

1762
01:28:56,240 --> 01:28:59,760
Speaker 1: big gold star on your resume because all the other

1763
01:28:59,760 --> 01:29:01,720
Speaker 1: teams they've got all these big time guys out there,

1764
01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:03,599
Speaker 1: that's how they do it. The Bills figured it out

1765
01:29:04,040 --> 01:29:07,680
Speaker 1: with tight ends, running backs and slot receivers. It's a

1766
01:29:07,720 --> 01:29:11,720
Speaker 1: big kudos to them for that. And that's how this

1767
01:29:11,760 --> 01:29:14,720
Speaker 1: team is going to go forward. They play to the

1768
01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:17,599
Speaker 1: strengths of their players and get their players to buy in,

1769
01:29:18,200 --> 01:29:22,679
Speaker 1: and we'll see because the even subtle differences in May, June, July,

1770
01:29:22,800 --> 01:29:28,639
Speaker 1: and August in training camp evolve into what we see

1771
01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:31,760
Speaker 1: on game days in the fall in early September, into

1772
01:29:31,840 --> 01:29:35,360
Speaker 1: a different team. So it's going to be very interesting

1773
01:29:35,400 --> 01:29:38,960
Speaker 1: to see. And I just thought about this this minute.

1774
01:29:39,720 --> 01:29:42,040
Speaker 1: It's really going to look different when we're in a

1775
01:29:42,080 --> 01:29:45,720
Speaker 1: new building. Oh yeah, oh my god. So I mean

1776
01:29:45,760 --> 01:29:47,720
Speaker 1: even if this grew lined up over there, it's going

1777
01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:52,000
Speaker 1: to look different. So a lot on the plate here

1778
01:29:52,040 --> 01:29:56,320
Speaker 1: in these press conferences, I thought they I know, they

1779
01:29:56,320 --> 01:29:58,160
Speaker 1: took a lot of heat and their organization took a

1780
01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:03,360
Speaker 1: pounding for the last week's press conference. This one they

1781
01:30:03,439 --> 01:30:05,320
Speaker 1: did much better. They seem to hit it out of

1782
01:30:05,360 --> 01:30:05,679
Speaker 1: the park.

1783
01:30:06,360 --> 01:30:09,080
Speaker 3: And maybe the most important thing that Josh said, because

1784
01:30:09,120 --> 01:30:12,320
Speaker 3: I know there was some concern from portions of the

1785
01:30:12,360 --> 01:30:16,200
Speaker 3: fan base about how Josh cannot have a head coach

1786
01:30:16,240 --> 01:30:18,759
Speaker 3: who's his buddy, and I think a lot of people

1787
01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:22,320
Speaker 3: viewed Joe Brady that way. But Josh even said himself

1788
01:30:22,360 --> 01:30:26,800
Speaker 3: today that Joe and I made a mutual promise to

1789
01:30:26,840 --> 01:30:29,479
Speaker 3: one another that we are going to hold one another

1790
01:30:29,520 --> 01:30:33,679
Speaker 3: accountable to help us bring a Lombardi Trophy to Western

1791
01:30:33,680 --> 01:30:36,400
Speaker 3: New York. And I thought that was important that Josh

1792
01:30:36,840 --> 01:30:40,360
Speaker 3: verbalized that, not the head coach. So but we want

1793
01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:43,080
Speaker 3: your thoughts on everything, and the phone lines are open

1794
01:30:43,080 --> 01:30:45,719
Speaker 3: at eight oh three oh five point fifty one eighty

1795
01:30:45,800 --> 01:30:48,000
Speaker 3: eight five point fifty two, five point fifty and I

1796
01:30:48,040 --> 01:30:51,560
Speaker 3: think we want to get your biggest takeaways from the

1797
01:30:51,640 --> 01:30:54,799
Speaker 3: Joe Brady press conference as well as that of Josh Allen.

1798
01:30:55,120 --> 01:30:58,519
Speaker 3: And we lead off today with Bill in Buffalo.

1799
01:30:58,560 --> 01:30:59,960
Speaker 2: What's up, Bill?

1800
01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:01,200
Speaker 35: Hey, guys, how you doing today?

1801
01:31:01,360 --> 01:31:02,559
Speaker 12: Good good.

1802
01:31:03,160 --> 01:31:05,559
Speaker 35: I just want to touch on I think they made

1803
01:31:05,600 --> 01:31:08,679
Speaker 35: the right choice and hiring Joe Brady. I know there's

1804
01:31:08,720 --> 01:31:11,880
Speaker 35: a lot of doubters out there, but I mean, the

1805
01:31:11,960 --> 01:31:18,320
Speaker 35: man has respect for his team, and I just feel

1806
01:31:18,360 --> 01:31:23,080
Speaker 35: like they made the right choice. And I feel like

1807
01:31:23,280 --> 01:31:26,800
Speaker 35: because of Josh and and Brady being on the same

1808
01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:31,840
Speaker 35: page as a beautiful thing. And I just want to

1809
01:31:31,840 --> 01:31:36,639
Speaker 35: also say, I feel like, you know, Josh, I understand

1810
01:31:36,720 --> 01:31:39,920
Speaker 35: Josh is the leader of the team, but why should

1811
01:31:40,000 --> 01:31:44,080
Speaker 35: one man have to put that cape on and be Superman?

1812
01:31:44,439 --> 01:31:47,439
Speaker 35: Why can't the whole team feel like they should put

1813
01:31:47,479 --> 01:31:50,240
Speaker 35: on the cape as well. With that, I'm gonna let

1814
01:31:50,320 --> 01:31:51,760
Speaker 35: you guys go and have a great day.

1815
01:31:51,920 --> 01:31:54,240
Speaker 1: Well, Bill, I appreciate what you're saying.

1816
01:31:54,320 --> 01:31:57,400
Speaker 2: You're right, it can't be a one man show.

1817
01:31:57,479 --> 01:31:59,760
Speaker 1: It can't shouldn't be a one man show. But by

1818
01:31:59,760 --> 01:32:05,720
Speaker 1: this same token, there's only one guy with superpowers, and

1819
01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:09,720
Speaker 1: it's Superman. So when he wants to, he does, And

1820
01:32:09,760 --> 01:32:11,519
Speaker 1: that's the way it is. That's why Josh is Josh

1821
01:32:11,560 --> 01:32:14,200
Speaker 1: because he has superpowers, right, I mean, that's why Superman

1822
01:32:14,320 --> 01:32:16,599
Speaker 1: is who he is. He's from Kryptonite. He's from Krypton.

1823
01:32:17,560 --> 01:32:20,760
Speaker 1: That's you know. Spider Man is the only one with

1824
01:32:20,760 --> 01:32:24,680
Speaker 1: the Spidery sense, you know, I mean the list, Yeah,

1825
01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:27,080
Speaker 1: I can go down the list. He's the only one

1826
01:32:27,080 --> 01:32:29,200
Speaker 1: that's got superpower. So when when.

1827
01:32:29,040 --> 01:32:32,920
Speaker 2: He needs to do it, analysts.

1828
01:32:32,200 --> 01:32:35,960
Speaker 1: Aquaman can talk to fish, that's his superpower. The reason

1829
01:32:36,040 --> 01:32:38,680
Speaker 1: Josh puts the cake on once in a while is

1830
01:32:38,720 --> 01:32:40,880
Speaker 1: because they're playing in a really tough league to win in.

1831
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:43,000
Speaker 1: And whoever, once in a while, you need Superman to

1832
01:32:43,080 --> 01:32:48,160
Speaker 1: jump over a tall building. Yeah, everybody needs to jump

1833
01:32:48,160 --> 01:32:49,880
Speaker 1: on board and help him and play better and do

1834
01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:52,599
Speaker 1: better and all of that stuff, and there's a lot

1835
01:32:52,640 --> 01:32:55,880
Speaker 1: in that, but when push comes to shove, you know,

1836
01:32:56,000 --> 01:32:59,960
Speaker 1: you don't tug on Superman's cap. So yeah, I know

1837
01:33:00,360 --> 01:33:02,080
Speaker 1: Josh shouldn't have to do it all the time, all

1838
01:33:02,120 --> 01:33:05,559
Speaker 1: by himself, but when he wants to, and when he

1839
01:33:05,600 --> 01:33:09,160
Speaker 1: needs to, when it presents himself, yeah, let him snap

1840
01:33:09,200 --> 01:33:11,679
Speaker 1: off a fifty two yard touchdown run in the playoffs.

1841
01:33:11,760 --> 01:33:13,960
Speaker 3: And I also think that's why Terry Pagoula made the

1842
01:33:14,040 --> 01:33:17,439
Speaker 3: change that he decided was necessary to make, because he

1843
01:33:17,479 --> 01:33:21,800
Speaker 3: doesn't want Josh having to turn to his superpowers to

1844
01:33:21,920 --> 01:33:25,160
Speaker 3: help this team win games. He's determined, as is Joe Brady,

1845
01:33:25,600 --> 01:33:27,840
Speaker 3: to get a defensive staff in here that can get

1846
01:33:27,920 --> 01:33:28,719
Speaker 3: better results.

1847
01:33:28,880 --> 01:33:32,519
Speaker 1: There's starting to be a feel as we take the

1848
01:33:32,560 --> 01:33:37,479
Speaker 1: whole McDermott era in totality, and man, let's face it,

1849
01:33:37,479 --> 01:33:39,360
Speaker 1: it was a black I mean, good grief. We had

1850
01:33:39,400 --> 01:33:42,080
Speaker 1: such fun in this building, and it was fun. All

1851
01:33:42,080 --> 01:33:45,640
Speaker 1: those games, the Perfect Game of the Division titles. It

1852
01:33:45,680 --> 01:33:47,880
Speaker 1: was so fun, and yeah, it was excruciating at the

1853
01:33:47,960 --> 01:33:51,520
Speaker 1: end of the seasons. But when you start to evaluate

1854
01:33:51,560 --> 01:33:54,240
Speaker 1: it and look at it more seriously, and now that

1855
01:33:54,680 --> 01:33:59,160
Speaker 1: they're moving away from it, there seemed to be moments

1856
01:33:59,200 --> 01:34:04,360
Speaker 1: in games where where the team plateau during the game

1857
01:34:05,080 --> 01:34:09,080
Speaker 1: where something changed about the field, the attitude, and they

1858
01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:13,000
Speaker 1: didn't have they didn't they went to a lower gear

1859
01:34:13,040 --> 01:34:16,439
Speaker 1: instead of a higher gear, if you will. There there

1860
01:34:16,479 --> 01:34:19,639
Speaker 1: seemed to be some time you could tell a moment

1861
01:34:19,720 --> 01:34:24,559
Speaker 1: in the games where they were gonna let the game

1862
01:34:24,680 --> 01:34:29,600
Speaker 1: end instead of continuing to win it. And it manifested

1863
01:34:29,640 --> 01:34:33,879
Speaker 1: itself in a ton of ways, and unfortunately, it seemed

1864
01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:38,800
Speaker 1: like the playoff losses all took that excruciating turn when

1865
01:34:38,840 --> 01:34:41,280
Speaker 1: you get into a game against a really good team,

1866
01:34:42,600 --> 01:34:45,360
Speaker 1: you're asking for a break, never to go against you,

1867
01:34:46,360 --> 01:34:49,040
Speaker 1: and they constantly go against you, and they go against

1868
01:34:49,080 --> 01:34:53,880
Speaker 1: every team in those close games, some small thing happens.

1869
01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:57,200
Speaker 1: You got to overcome it, and it's hard to find

1870
01:34:57,240 --> 01:35:00,559
Speaker 1: that extra gear when you've already taken it out the gear.

1871
01:35:00,960 --> 01:35:04,360
Speaker 1: And so that that kind of feeling seems to be

1872
01:35:04,439 --> 01:35:10,880
Speaker 1: the overriding narrative of you know that Sean McDermott era

1873
01:35:11,040 --> 01:35:14,120
Speaker 1: in those big moments. Certainly this team was good enough

1874
01:35:14,120 --> 01:35:18,559
Speaker 1: with Josh and James Cook and the and the offensive

1875
01:35:18,600 --> 01:35:21,519
Speaker 1: line and the weapons they had offensively, it was certainly

1876
01:35:23,080 --> 01:35:27,120
Speaker 1: outstanding elite at points, but there does seem to be

1877
01:35:27,320 --> 01:35:32,800
Speaker 1: an underlying current that as good as they were, they

1878
01:35:32,840 --> 01:35:36,559
Speaker 1: were never allowed to play big time in big everybody

1879
01:35:36,600 --> 01:35:40,479
Speaker 1: wasn't allowed to play big time in big moments. They

1880
01:35:40,560 --> 01:35:45,160
Speaker 1: were said, let's steady Eddy here and and sometimes you

1881
01:35:45,439 --> 01:35:46,960
Speaker 1: gotta go for it all the time.

1882
01:35:48,160 --> 01:35:50,720

Speaker 3: to get to as many people as we can here,

1897
01:36:58,640 --> 01:37:00,679
Speaker 3: and we lead off with Alex in Charlotte.

1898
01:37:00,680 --> 01:37:04,600
Speaker 24: What's up all hey, guys, Thanks for taking my call.

1899
01:37:05,439 --> 01:37:08,360
Speaker 24: I've been listening over the last few weeks to touch

1900
01:37:08,360 --> 01:37:11,160
Speaker 24: on the press conference, it's it's just got me pumped up.

1901
01:37:12,160 --> 01:37:14,559
Speaker 24: I was a big McDermott fan, grew up in the drought,

1902
01:37:14,640 --> 01:37:18,640
Speaker 24: so to watch him take our team from mediocrity to

1903
01:37:19,040 --> 01:37:22,680
Speaker 24: excellence was it was It was hard to watch him go.

1904
01:37:23,720 --> 01:37:28,280
Speaker 24: I wasn't one hundred percent fold on Joe Brady, but

1905
01:37:28,320 --> 01:37:30,640
Speaker 24: the one thing I've noticed about Joe Brady is just

1906
01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:34,200
Speaker 24: the energy that he brings. You see it in press conferences,

1907
01:37:34,240 --> 01:37:37,280
Speaker 24: You've heard the players talk about it, and I think

1908
01:37:37,320 --> 01:37:40,120
Speaker 24: that's something that we've been missing. As much as I

1909
01:37:40,120 --> 01:37:42,720
Speaker 24: love McDermott, he was always a very even, keel guy,

1910
01:37:42,760 --> 01:37:45,519
Speaker 24: and there's something to be said about that, but Joe

1911
01:37:45,520 --> 01:37:48,640
Speaker 24: Brady just brings juice and life.

1912
01:37:48,439 --> 01:37:49,480
Speaker 35: Into this team.

1913
01:37:49,800 --> 01:37:52,040
Speaker 24: I think we're gonna see it not only with the offense,

1914
01:37:52,080 --> 01:37:54,639
Speaker 24: but now to the defense, to special teams. I think

1915
01:37:55,520 --> 01:37:59,200
Speaker 24: those games where we see guys come out flat, that

1916
01:37:59,600 --> 01:38:03,479
Speaker 24: could be part of the problem on the division.

1917
01:38:04,360 --> 01:38:06,400
Speaker 2: Coming out flat cost you the division this year.

1918
01:38:07,720 --> 01:38:10,559
Speaker 24: Uh and and we've every year we talk about that's

1919
01:38:10,680 --> 01:38:13,400
Speaker 24: that's a trend. Two games every single season we come

1920
01:38:13,439 --> 01:38:17,360
Speaker 24: out flat, we drop them. So I'm excited to see

1921
01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:21,479
Speaker 24: what Joe Brady stills look like. I'm excited to see

1922
01:38:21,520 --> 01:38:25,880
Speaker 24: how the team embraces it, what the changes are at

1923
01:38:26,400 --> 01:38:29,519
Speaker 24: It's it's a lot to go, but not a lot

1924
01:38:29,560 --> 01:38:31,360
Speaker 24: at the same time, and I think he can get

1925
01:38:31,400 --> 01:38:32,400
Speaker 24: us there, all.

1926
01:38:32,320 --> 01:38:39,720
Speaker 3: Right, right, appreciate it, Yeah, obviously, And this was a

1927
01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:42,320
Speaker 3: big subject in the Q and a portion of his

1928
01:38:42,360 --> 01:38:43,080
Speaker 3: press conference.

1929
01:38:43,680 --> 01:38:45,720
Speaker 2: I think what the defense.

1930
01:38:45,280 --> 01:38:49,120
Speaker 3: Looks like is going to tell us a lot about

1931
01:38:49,200 --> 01:38:52,760
Speaker 3: what his all encompassing vision for the team is. I mean,

1932
01:38:52,760 --> 01:38:55,800
Speaker 3: he kind of shed some light on it. He wants

1933
01:38:55,840 --> 01:38:58,120
Speaker 3: to dictate to the opponent. He wants the opponent to

1934
01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:02,439
Speaker 3: be nameless and faceless because they're more the opponent is

1935
01:39:02,439 --> 01:39:03,760
Speaker 3: more worried about playing.

1936
01:39:03,560 --> 01:39:04,479
Speaker 2: Them the Bills.

1937
01:39:04,880 --> 01:39:08,479
Speaker 3: So we'll see how that takes shape, particularly on defense

1938
01:39:08,560 --> 01:39:11,160
Speaker 3: and on specialty of course, which is gonna be new too.

1939
01:39:11,240 --> 01:39:11,599
Speaker 17: That's right.

1940
01:39:11,640 --> 01:39:13,519
Speaker 1: And of course, you know, in the next in the

1941
01:39:13,520 --> 01:39:18,080
Speaker 1: coming days, we'll learn more about you know, the coaching staff.

1942
01:39:18,920 --> 01:39:21,519
Speaker 1: And it usually starts with the big bowlders. First your

1943
01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:26,320
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator, and then if Joe, which they

1944
01:39:26,320 --> 01:39:29,759
Speaker 1: did have success with, Aaron Kromer's their run game coordinator,

1945
01:39:29,760 --> 01:39:32,519
Speaker 1: and Aaron Kromer is now we've heard these tile quits

1946
01:39:33,960 --> 01:39:36,280
Speaker 1: is he going to continue to have a run game coordinator,

1947
01:39:36,320 --> 01:39:42,200
Speaker 1: a passing game coordinator, a passing game defensive coordinator as

1948
01:39:42,240 --> 01:39:45,160
Speaker 1: well underneath the defensive coordinator. All of that stuff has

1949
01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:48,559
Speaker 1: to be worked out and and it'll be fun to

1950
01:39:48,640 --> 01:39:51,840
Speaker 1: watch this take shape. There's a lot of guys they're

1951
01:39:51,880 --> 01:39:55,639
Speaker 1: gonna have to sign on with Joe Brady in order

1952
01:39:55,640 --> 01:39:57,600
Speaker 1: for this to work, and we have We don't know

1953
01:39:57,640 --> 01:39:59,320
Speaker 1: who those are gonna be yet, and it's gonna be

1954
01:39:59,439 --> 01:40:04,519
Speaker 1: exciting to find out. But I will say this, we're

1955
01:40:04,560 --> 01:40:07,040
Speaker 1: all optimistic on a day like today rather than as

1956
01:40:07,040 --> 01:40:09,800
Speaker 1: pessimistic as we were a week ago. You know, you

1957
01:40:09,840 --> 01:40:13,080
Speaker 1: all have to be optimistic. Kind of it's natural. I

1958
01:40:13,080 --> 01:40:15,120
Speaker 1: guess you don't have to be, but it's natural to

1959
01:40:15,120 --> 01:40:17,599
Speaker 1: be optimistic when you get a whole you know, get

1960
01:40:17,640 --> 01:40:20,519
Speaker 1: a chance to hear Joe Brady talk, find out the

1961
01:40:20,600 --> 01:40:23,720
Speaker 1: kind of guy is. We've obviously interacted with him over

1962
01:40:23,760 --> 01:40:25,880
Speaker 1: the last three or four years in his time in

1963
01:40:25,920 --> 01:40:30,160
Speaker 1: the building. It will be fun and it is exciting

1964
01:40:30,200 --> 01:40:31,479
Speaker 1: to think about how good it could be.

1965
01:40:32,560 --> 01:40:35,120
Speaker 2: Let's go to d C in Lakewood next.

1966
01:40:35,160 --> 01:40:35,720
Speaker 1: What's up DC?

1967
01:40:37,120 --> 01:40:39,960
Speaker 36: Hi, thanks for taking my call. I just I agree

1968
01:40:40,280 --> 01:40:45,599
Speaker 36: with you on being positive and I wanted Brady as

1969
01:40:45,640 --> 01:40:47,559
Speaker 36: soon as I heard about McDermott, and yeah, I was

1970
01:40:47,680 --> 01:40:53,040
Speaker 36: grieving over that. But I think he came across so knowledgeable, humble,

1971
01:40:53,320 --> 01:40:56,840
Speaker 36: and there's something to be said about humility, and I

1972
01:40:56,920 --> 01:40:59,240
Speaker 36: feel like he's going to do all he can to

1973
01:40:59,280 --> 01:41:03,640
Speaker 36: get it done. And being a fan for over sixty years,

1974
01:41:02,920 --> 01:41:07,000
Speaker 36: I just feel like this change is going to be

1975
01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:11,280
Speaker 36: a positive one. I loved his passion about Buffalo, his

1976
01:41:11,400 --> 01:41:13,640
Speaker 36: kids being born here. I was born in Buffalo, and

1977
01:41:13,800 --> 01:41:18,120
Speaker 36: it just everything about what he said. He wasn't being vague.

1978
01:41:18,160 --> 01:41:20,360
Speaker 36: I thought he was being precise on how he was

1979
01:41:20,400 --> 01:41:24,360
Speaker 36: going to tweak things without letting everybody else know. And

1980
01:41:24,400 --> 01:41:26,240
Speaker 36: I thought, I don't know. I just thought it was

1981
01:41:26,240 --> 01:41:28,920
Speaker 36: a positive press conference. That's pretty much all I had

1982
01:41:28,960 --> 01:41:29,240
Speaker 36: to say.

1983
01:41:29,400 --> 01:41:31,559
Speaker 2: Okay, j C, thanks for weighing in on that.

1984
01:41:31,680 --> 01:41:34,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought he did come across well, and I

1985
01:41:34,600 --> 01:41:38,519
Speaker 3: thought it was important that, you know, he paid some

1986
01:41:38,680 --> 01:41:41,800
Speaker 3: respect to the guy that laid the foundation before him.

1987
01:41:41,880 --> 01:41:47,120
Speaker 3: He even said it today when he basically stated, I

1988
01:41:47,160 --> 01:41:50,080
Speaker 3: know what I'm inheriting is in a lot better shape

1989
01:41:50,080 --> 01:41:53,880
Speaker 3: than what Sean McDermott inherited nine years ago, and He

1990
01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:57,760
Speaker 3: thanked Sean for that, and he should because due to that,

1991
01:41:58,800 --> 01:42:03,480
Speaker 3: his opportunity could be a much more fruitful one than

1992
01:42:03,520 --> 01:42:05,680
Speaker 3: the one that Sean McDermott inherited. So I thought it

1993
01:42:05,720 --> 01:42:09,240
Speaker 3: was appropriate that, you know, he paid respect to him.

1994
01:42:09,360 --> 01:42:11,400
Speaker 3: It wasn't one of those situations where, oh, we're not

1995
01:42:11,439 --> 01:42:14,320
Speaker 3: gonna say Sean McDermott's name at this press mast. You know,

1996
01:42:14,439 --> 01:42:17,600
Speaker 3: he was very open and honest about the opportunity that

1997
01:42:17,640 --> 01:42:20,200
Speaker 3: Sean gave him, how much he appreciated that, and how

1998
01:42:20,200 --> 01:42:23,000
Speaker 3: grateful he was that he's walking into an opportunity that

1999
01:42:23,120 --> 01:42:26,679
Speaker 3: is certainly miles better than the one that Sean McDermott

2000
01:42:26,680 --> 01:42:30,000
Speaker 3: walked into. Let's go to Milton in Buffalo next. What's up, Milton.

2001
01:42:31,080 --> 01:42:32,479
Speaker 18: Hey, you guys doing good?

2002
01:42:32,560 --> 01:42:33,400
Speaker 9: Good? Hey?

2003
01:42:33,880 --> 01:42:36,360
Speaker 18: Yeah, I haven't seen the press conference yet, but I'm

2004
01:42:36,400 --> 01:42:39,000
Speaker 18: calling because I called the other day and I gave

2005
01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:39,679
Speaker 18: my opinion.

2006
01:42:39,880 --> 01:42:41,200
Speaker 17: I said, who should be the coach?

2007
01:42:41,560 --> 01:42:42,840
Speaker 18: And I definitely said, but.

2008
01:42:44,280 --> 01:42:45,000
Speaker 37: Now that means like.

2009
01:42:44,960 --> 01:42:46,759
Speaker 17: Who called the plays the last three years?

2010
01:42:46,760 --> 01:42:47,400
Speaker 9: You know what I'm saying?

2011
01:42:48,439 --> 01:42:51,559
Speaker 17: To the offense average twenty seven to thirty points, You

2012
01:42:51,600 --> 01:42:53,600
Speaker 17: know what I mean? We played at least ninety of

2013
01:42:53,680 --> 01:42:56,840
Speaker 17: our our losses ninety percent of our losses down to

2014
01:42:56,880 --> 01:42:58,840
Speaker 17: the final gun. You know, I mean all by him.

2015
01:42:59,120 --> 01:43:01,320
Speaker 17: John's want to him, you know what I'm saying. And

2016
01:43:01,400 --> 01:43:04,200
Speaker 17: I think that's a great move by Terry Kukula, you

2017
01:43:04,240 --> 01:43:07,760
Speaker 17: know what I'm saying. But one more thing onre thing,

2018
01:43:07,800 --> 01:43:08,439
Speaker 17: because I've been.

2019
01:43:08,320 --> 01:43:11,439
Speaker 18: Calling in I'm trying to put in a bid for

2020
01:43:11,720 --> 01:43:16,200
Speaker 18: Jim Schwartz for the past three to two to three years, man,

2021
01:43:16,520 --> 01:43:19,040
Speaker 18: and it seems like he's a little bit more available,

2022
01:43:19,240 --> 01:43:20,640
Speaker 18: you know what I mean. I need the bills to

2023
01:43:20,680 --> 01:43:22,840
Speaker 18: really try to get him. When we talk about Jim

2024
01:43:22,880 --> 01:43:23,360
Speaker 18: Swartz for.

2025
01:43:23,280 --> 01:43:27,040
Speaker 3: A second, Yeah, we've mentioned him a couple of times too, Milton,

2026
01:43:27,080 --> 01:43:30,000
Speaker 3: Thanks for the call. He is not happy with how

2027
01:43:30,040 --> 01:43:34,519
Speaker 3: the head coaching search wound up in Cleveland because he

2028
01:43:34,560 --> 01:43:38,559
Speaker 3: didn't get the job. He interviewed twice, you know, in

2029
01:43:38,600 --> 01:43:41,400
Speaker 3: the go round there and they settled on Todd Monkin,

2030
01:43:42,120 --> 01:43:47,960
Speaker 3: and according to multiple reports, he basically went around the

2031
01:43:47,960 --> 01:43:51,040
Speaker 3: building yesterday said goodbye to everybody and said, yeah, I'm

2032
01:43:51,040 --> 01:43:54,439
Speaker 3: out of here and I'm never coming back. That would

2033
01:43:54,439 --> 01:43:56,840
Speaker 3: seem to indicate that he could be available for hire

2034
01:43:56,880 --> 01:43:59,240
Speaker 3: as a defensive coordinator and I would absolutely have him

2035
01:43:59,240 --> 01:44:01,439
Speaker 3: on a short list. There's no debating that. And he

2036
01:44:01,520 --> 01:44:03,400
Speaker 3: was here in twenty fourteen the team led the league

2037
01:44:03,439 --> 01:44:03,960
Speaker 3: in sacks.

2038
01:44:04,240 --> 01:44:06,920
Speaker 1: So and he's been he's a former head coach too,

2039
01:44:06,960 --> 01:44:08,360
Speaker 1: so and yeah, you know, and.

2040
01:44:08,840 --> 01:44:10,719
Speaker 2: That would be a good guy for Joe Brady Delena.

2041
01:44:13,560 --> 01:44:17,800
Speaker 1: And here's the only problem with it. He's if he

2042
01:44:17,840 --> 01:44:20,519
Speaker 1: wants to make himself available. And I think Jim Schwartz

2043
01:44:20,560 --> 01:44:23,679
Speaker 1: would be out of work for about five minutes if

2044
01:44:23,920 --> 01:44:27,080
Speaker 1: if they let him go. But it's up to him

2045
01:44:27,080 --> 01:44:30,240
Speaker 1: to resign. He has to resign to be available outright

2046
01:44:30,840 --> 01:44:32,880
Speaker 1: because he's under contract with the Browns. Now he I

2047
01:44:32,920 --> 01:44:35,280
Speaker 1: don't know that he's done that, but if he does,

2048
01:44:35,680 --> 01:44:38,200
Speaker 1: he will be available and there will be teams interested

2049
01:44:38,240 --> 01:44:43,200
Speaker 1: in it. And after no, I mean, it's not an

2050
01:44:43,240 --> 01:44:45,680
Speaker 1: issue of where his next meal is coming from. So

2051
01:44:47,040 --> 01:44:52,120
Speaker 1: he could make himself available just by resigning as defensive

2052
01:44:52,120 --> 01:44:56,800
Speaker 1: coordinator of the Browns. But until the Browns fire him

2053
01:44:56,920 --> 01:44:59,160
Speaker 1: or he does that, he's not available to talk to.

2054
01:44:59,360 --> 01:45:02,639
Speaker 3: Well, you can arrange something with the Browns request in interviews.

2055
01:45:02,680 --> 01:45:04,360
Speaker 3: See what they say if they said metp talk to him,

2056
01:45:04,360 --> 01:45:07,120
Speaker 3: we don't care take his salary off our books. That'd

2057
01:45:07,160 --> 01:45:09,200
Speaker 3: be great right, because he don't want to come back

2058
01:45:09,240 --> 01:45:12,640
Speaker 3: here anyway. So you got to go through, you know,

2059
01:45:12,680 --> 01:45:16,240
Speaker 3: the necessary protocols and ask the other club since, as

2060
01:45:16,280 --> 01:45:18,120
Speaker 3: Steve said, he is under contract to them.

2061
01:45:18,120 --> 01:45:21,080
Speaker 2: But I don't know that a parting.

2062
01:45:20,800 --> 01:45:24,000
Speaker 3: Of ways will be too difficult a thing they are

2063
01:45:24,040 --> 01:45:26,040
Speaker 3: in Cleveland between Schwarts and the Browns.

2064
01:45:25,760 --> 01:45:26,759
Speaker 2: Organization and Milton.

2065
01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:30,760
Speaker 3: You're right about Brady's accomplishments here in the job he

2066
01:45:30,800 --> 01:45:33,760
Speaker 3: previously held, which he'll still hold to some degree now

2067
01:45:33,920 --> 01:45:35,639
Speaker 3: because he said he is going to call the plays.

2068
01:45:36,040 --> 01:45:39,280
Speaker 3: But since Brady was elevated to offensive coordinator over the

2069
01:45:39,320 --> 01:45:41,439
Speaker 3: final third of the twenty twenty three season, the Bills

2070
01:45:41,479 --> 01:45:45,679
Speaker 3: have ranked first in EPA per play, second in points

2071
01:45:45,680 --> 01:45:49,640
Speaker 3: per game, and since twenty twenty four, when he was

2072
01:45:49,720 --> 01:45:53,200
Speaker 3: named full time offensive coordinator no longer interim, they are

2073
01:45:53,240 --> 01:45:57,360
Speaker 3: first in red zone touchdown scoring efficiency at sixty nine percent.

2074
01:45:57,439 --> 01:45:59,800
Speaker 3: Sixty nine percent of the time they crack the red

2075
01:46:00,080 --> 01:46:02,599
Speaker 3: zone the ball wound up in the end zone. This

2076
01:46:02,720 --> 01:46:06,240
Speaker 3: past season, the Bills, while playing a first place schedule,

2077
01:46:06,640 --> 01:46:10,839
Speaker 3: had nine games with thirty points or more this season

2078
01:46:11,200 --> 01:46:13,360
Speaker 3: that was tied with the Rams for the most in

2079
01:46:13,400 --> 01:46:16,759
Speaker 3: the NFL. Last season, they led the league in games

2080
01:46:16,760 --> 01:46:20,200
Speaker 3: of thirty points or more with twelve, and also broke

2081
01:46:20,240 --> 01:46:23,439
Speaker 3: records for most points scored in a season and touchdown

2082
01:46:23,520 --> 01:46:26,720
Speaker 3: scored in a season in team history, and over the

2083
01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:30,840
Speaker 3: last two years, no other club has more thirty point

2084
01:46:30,920 --> 01:46:34,320
Speaker 3: games than the Bills, who have twenty one. Now, as

2085
01:46:34,400 --> 01:46:36,800
Speaker 3: Eric Woods said when we had him on yesterday, if

2086
01:46:36,840 --> 01:46:39,600
Speaker 3: you said that was on the resume of one of

2087
01:46:39,600 --> 01:46:42,400
Speaker 3: the head coaching candidates and didn't give a name, you

2088
01:46:42,439 --> 01:46:45,160
Speaker 3: would sign up for that in one second.

2089
01:46:44,960 --> 01:46:48,680
Speaker 1: Right, Yes, if you were getting Joe Brady from Seattle

2090
01:46:49,200 --> 01:46:55,160
Speaker 1: or Arizona or some other team, you'd best especially if

2091
01:46:55,160 --> 01:46:57,160
Speaker 1: you put up a press conference like he did today.

2092
01:46:58,080 --> 01:47:01,640
Speaker 1: You couldn't. You couldn't adging a better candidate. And I

2093
01:47:01,680 --> 01:47:04,200
Speaker 1: know too Joe Brady's detractors, and this is this was

2094
01:47:04,240 --> 01:47:07,519
Speaker 1: a little bit of Sean mcdermot's detractors as well. They

2095
01:47:08,200 --> 01:47:10,559
Speaker 1: chalk all the positives up in the entire franchise up

2096
01:47:10,600 --> 01:47:13,679
Speaker 1: to Josh. And Josh is a big component of everything,

2097
01:47:15,920 --> 01:47:17,760
Speaker 1: but he's not the only But he's not the only thing.

2098
01:47:17,800 --> 01:47:20,040
Speaker 1: And if you think it's easy to coach Josh Allen

2099
01:47:20,360 --> 01:47:28,080
Speaker 1: and develop a quarterback, it's not. And with Josh Allen

2100
01:47:28,200 --> 01:47:31,040
Speaker 1: sitting in the room, not only when Joe was asked

2101
01:47:31,280 --> 01:47:34,680
Speaker 1: to do the job, but also in the lead up

2102
01:47:34,720 --> 01:47:39,439
Speaker 1: to it. I'm pretty sure you had an idea that

2103
01:47:39,479 --> 01:47:42,880
Speaker 1: the guy knew what he was doing, and I think

2104
01:47:42,880 --> 01:47:46,759
Speaker 1: he's proven it. He took Josh to an MVP season.

2105
01:47:46,880 --> 01:47:51,680
Speaker 1: Nobody else did that. Whether he deserved it or not,

2106
01:47:51,680 --> 01:47:54,280
Speaker 1: it's another story. But he didn't get it done with

2107
01:47:54,400 --> 01:47:58,000
Speaker 1: anybody else. And the points score, I just can't we

2108
01:47:58,120 --> 01:48:02,160
Speaker 1: go back to it all the time. Josh Allen when

2109
01:48:02,160 --> 01:48:04,160
Speaker 1: he's all said and done, Brownie says it the best.

2110
01:48:04,160 --> 01:48:08,479
Speaker 1: He's about the Michael Jordan thing. This team you can't

2111
01:48:08,560 --> 01:48:11,519
Speaker 1: keep them off the scoreboard now unless they help you.

2112
01:48:12,479 --> 01:48:15,120
Speaker 1: Even in the games where they got beat this year

2113
01:48:15,120 --> 01:48:17,320
Speaker 1: in the Miami game and some of the others, they

2114
01:48:17,360 --> 01:48:22,599
Speaker 1: helped those teams. And that's on Josh's as well. But man,

2115
01:48:22,600 --> 01:48:26,960
Speaker 1: oh man, this team scores points, Josh Allen and this

2116
01:48:27,040 --> 01:48:30,080
Speaker 1: offense score points. That's not going to change. And that

2117
01:48:30,320 --> 01:48:33,040
Speaker 1: still right there puts the Bills right back in the

2118
01:48:33,080 --> 01:48:37,479
Speaker 1: mix for being in the division title run next year

2119
01:48:37,520 --> 01:48:39,519
Speaker 1: and the one seed and all that. It's still going

2120
01:48:39,600 --> 01:48:41,519
Speaker 1: to be an expectation coming this year.

2121
01:48:41,640 --> 01:48:44,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean twenty one of their last thirty four

2122
01:48:44,200 --> 01:48:46,840
Speaker 3: regular season games, they've scored thirty points or more. No

2123
01:48:46,880 --> 01:48:49,240
Speaker 3: one's close to that. They are far and away the

2124
01:48:49,280 --> 01:48:51,639
Speaker 3: league leader. Got to take a break here. We'll get

2125
01:48:51,640 --> 01:48:54,400
Speaker 3: back to more phone calls when we return for your

2137
01:49:30,880 --> 01:49:35,200
Speaker 20: fan since nineteen sixty seven. One of the reasons that

2138
01:49:35,800 --> 01:49:38,519
Speaker 20: we love Josh Allen, one of the reasons the country

2139
01:49:38,560 --> 01:49:44,200
Speaker 20: loves Josh Allen is his authenticity, win or lose, And

2140
01:49:44,240 --> 01:49:46,920
Speaker 20: what I saw on that podium today was a lot

2141
01:49:46,960 --> 01:49:55,360
Speaker 20: of authenticity. When Rady talked about the sacrifices his mom

2142
01:49:55,400 --> 01:49:59,240
Speaker 20: and dad had to make for him, sacrifices that his

2143
01:49:59,360 --> 01:50:03,840
Speaker 20: wife has made for his career and probably will be

2144
01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:10,000
Speaker 20: increased with the new position. That was authentic, And I

2145
01:50:10,000 --> 01:50:10,880
Speaker 20: gotta be honest with you.

2146
01:50:10,960 --> 01:50:11,560
Speaker 7: He moved me.

2147
01:50:14,240 --> 01:50:18,960
Speaker 20: Senior kids achieve is maybe the greatest feeling in the world.

2148
01:50:19,840 --> 01:50:23,559
Speaker 20: And all I can say is I understand what the

2149
01:50:23,600 --> 01:50:29,080
Speaker 20: committee saw in him after watching him talk about his family.

2150
01:50:28,840 --> 01:50:30,160
Speaker 6: And what moved him.

2151
01:50:31,280 --> 01:50:34,439
Speaker 20: And I can't wait to get into the new stadium

2152
01:50:34,439 --> 01:50:37,040
Speaker 20: this fall. Yeah, just like to have some just like

2153
01:50:37,080 --> 01:50:38,120
Speaker 20: to have some summer first.

2154
01:50:38,960 --> 01:50:41,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I understood. But thanks Dave.

2155
01:50:41,120 --> 01:50:45,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, you want to talk about sacrifice. I mean, this

2156
01:50:45,720 --> 01:50:50,599
Speaker 3: guy got the job as quarterbacks coach, had a baby boy,

2157
01:50:51,760 --> 01:50:54,120
Speaker 3: now has the head coaching job, and he's got an

2158
01:50:54,120 --> 01:50:55,200
Speaker 3: eight week old daughter.

2159
01:50:56,080 --> 01:50:59,280
Speaker 2: So Dave, you're one hundred percent right. His wife has

2160
01:50:59,280 --> 01:50:59,759
Speaker 2: her handsful.

2161
01:51:00,000 --> 01:51:02,960
Speaker 3: Matter of fact, his parents have been up here pretty

2162
01:51:03,000 --> 01:51:05,600
Speaker 3: much since the season ended and they're helping with babysitting.

2163
01:51:08,160 --> 01:51:09,400
Speaker 2: They came up from South Florida.

2164
01:51:09,479 --> 01:51:12,360
Speaker 3: His sister's been up here too, and she's been helping

2165
01:51:13,000 --> 01:51:15,640
Speaker 3: Joe's wife Lauren out as well. But he's got a

2166
01:51:15,680 --> 01:51:18,080
Speaker 3: three year old and an eight week old and now

2167
01:51:18,080 --> 01:51:20,679
Speaker 3: he's a head coach of a football team at age

2168
01:51:20,720 --> 01:51:23,960
Speaker 3: thirty six, So yeah, there will be more sacrifices coming

2169
01:51:24,040 --> 01:51:24,960
Speaker 3: up here for sure.

2170
01:51:25,920 --> 01:51:30,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's so many of us can relate to what

2171
01:51:30,600 --> 01:51:32,880
Speaker 1: he's going through. And we've always had these seasons in

2172
01:51:32,920 --> 01:51:35,160
Speaker 1: your lives. Not me so much now at this age,

2173
01:51:35,200 --> 01:51:37,800
Speaker 1: but back in the day when you're younger and your

2174
01:51:37,880 --> 01:51:41,000
Speaker 1: kids are little, and you just your neck deep in it,

2175
01:51:41,080 --> 01:51:43,960
Speaker 1: and every day lasts an eternity, and yet you look

2176
01:51:44,000 --> 01:51:45,920
Speaker 1: back and there's years and years gone by. All of

2177
01:51:45,920 --> 01:51:49,639
Speaker 1: a sudden, the days are long and the years are short,

2178
01:51:50,200 --> 01:51:54,040
Speaker 1: and you know that's what this is. You're you know,

2179
01:51:55,520 --> 01:51:57,439
Speaker 1: bless his heart. I mean, you're doing something you love.

2180
01:51:58,200 --> 01:52:00,960
Speaker 1: It's a lot of fun. You feel you're doing it

2181
01:52:01,160 --> 01:52:06,240
Speaker 1: for the right reasons, with the right people, and your family.

2182
01:52:07,080 --> 01:52:09,080
Speaker 1: You know, now as head coach, his family will be

2183
01:52:09,080 --> 01:52:11,120
Speaker 1: able to participate a little more than probably they did

2184
01:52:11,160 --> 01:52:18,479
Speaker 1: as a as a coordinator's family. But it's it's a

2185
01:52:18,479 --> 01:52:21,479
Speaker 1: season of your life that is invigorating all at once

2186
01:52:21,520 --> 01:52:24,880
Speaker 1: but also exhausting all at once. Right, you say it.

2187
01:52:24,880 --> 01:52:26,879
Speaker 2: All the time, Steve. Coaching is a lifestyle.

2188
01:52:27,040 --> 01:52:29,560
Speaker 1: It's a lifestyle. It's a lifestyle and his family is

2189
01:52:29,600 --> 01:52:31,920
Speaker 1: in this lifestyle with him, so bless their heart. We

2190
01:52:32,040 --> 01:52:34,840
Speaker 1: hope that and by the end of this people are

2191
01:52:34,840 --> 01:52:37,360
Speaker 1: wishing that Joe Brady had a lifetime contract, right. I mean,

2192
01:52:37,360 --> 01:52:38,559
Speaker 1: that's how good we all want it.

2193
01:52:38,600 --> 01:52:41,320
Speaker 2: To go to Mark and West senecon ex what's.

2194
01:52:41,200 --> 01:52:46,320
Speaker 38: Up Mark, Good afternoon, guys. First of all, I want

2195
01:52:46,360 --> 01:52:48,759
Speaker 38: to say, Dave, I think was right on the money

2196
01:52:49,840 --> 01:52:52,280
Speaker 38: partly what I'm calling about. You got a comment about

2197
01:52:52,320 --> 01:52:55,680
Speaker 38: the press conference and then a quick comment about Josh.

2198
01:52:55,840 --> 01:52:58,519
Speaker 38: First of all, I felt like we came out of

2199
01:52:58,560 --> 01:53:03,519
Speaker 38: the darkness a little bit today. And I really never

2200
01:53:03,600 --> 01:53:07,519
Speaker 38: heard Joe speak that much because I never really listened

2201
01:53:07,520 --> 01:53:10,880
Speaker 38: to his press conferences during the season. But I think

2202
01:53:10,960 --> 01:53:13,519
Speaker 38: one of the things that really concerned me was moving forward.

2203
01:53:13,760 --> 01:53:15,920
Speaker 38: I always thought the X's and Niels will take care

2204
01:53:15,960 --> 01:53:18,800
Speaker 38: of themselves. You know, guys in that league know what

2205
01:53:18,800 --> 01:53:22,040
Speaker 38: they're doing, Coaches for the most part, know what they're doing,

2206
01:53:22,880 --> 01:53:25,240
Speaker 38: will get new coaches in here, and all that good stuff.

2207
01:53:25,479 --> 01:53:28,240
Speaker 38: But the culture was one of the things that concerned me.

2208
01:53:28,880 --> 01:53:31,960
Speaker 38: And I have a hockey background where and play a

2209
01:53:32,040 --> 01:53:34,960
Speaker 38: decent level of hockey where I never played in a

2210
01:53:35,000 --> 01:53:37,680
Speaker 38: locker room where the guys didn't love each other, they

2211
01:53:37,680 --> 01:53:40,960
Speaker 38: didn't enjoy each other. If they didn't play for each other,

2212
01:53:41,240 --> 01:53:44,360
Speaker 38: you were successful. And I can't even imagine how tough

2213
01:53:44,400 --> 01:53:46,639
Speaker 38: it is on a pro level to bring that into

2214
01:53:46,680 --> 01:53:51,439
Speaker 38: a locker room, but with a roster that's twice as big,

2215
01:53:51,479 --> 01:53:55,800
Speaker 38: over twice as big of a hockey locker room. And

2216
01:53:55,840 --> 01:53:57,680
Speaker 38: I was really concerned about where they were going to

2217
01:53:57,720 --> 01:53:59,080
Speaker 38: go with the culture, but they were going to get

2218
01:53:59,120 --> 01:54:02,040
Speaker 38: a guy in here who put us much emphasis on it.

2219
01:54:02,520 --> 01:54:06,080
Speaker 38: And I had an appreciation for what it is around

2220
01:54:06,120 --> 01:54:10,280
Speaker 38: here and Bill's mafia, the whole ball of wax, what

2221
01:54:10,400 --> 01:54:12,360
Speaker 38: do you understand it? And I think we have that

2222
01:54:12,439 --> 01:54:16,240
Speaker 38: in Jill, And it was great to hear his appreciation

2223
01:54:17,000 --> 01:54:20,639
Speaker 38: for all of that and for what Sean has weighed

2224
01:54:20,640 --> 01:54:23,280
Speaker 38: down and that he's going to do his best to

2225
01:54:23,360 --> 01:54:26,960
Speaker 38: move that forward. So and I know words are words,

2226
01:54:27,000 --> 01:54:31,240
Speaker 38: Press conferences are press conferences. They don't win football games,

2227
01:54:31,479 --> 01:54:33,840
Speaker 38: but I think it's a hell of a base for

2228
01:54:34,320 --> 01:54:36,960
Speaker 38: them to start with in order to continue to do that.

2229
01:54:37,120 --> 01:54:40,160
Speaker 38: So I'm a lot more enthused about where we're going

2230
01:54:40,760 --> 01:54:44,480
Speaker 38: than when this hire originally was made. And I'm certainly

2231
01:54:44,480 --> 01:54:47,840
Speaker 38: on board with giving him every opportunity and benefit of

2232
01:54:47,920 --> 01:54:51,240
Speaker 38: the doubt to be successful. And then if I know

2233
01:54:51,280 --> 01:54:53,720
Speaker 38: I'm taking a long about I'll to wrap this up

2234
01:54:53,760 --> 01:54:55,800
Speaker 38: real quick. You guys are talking about Josh a little

2235
01:54:55,800 --> 01:55:01,040
Speaker 38: bit and about coaching Josh and all that. I believe

2236
01:55:01,120 --> 01:55:03,880
Speaker 38: Josh is at the point now there's not much of,

2237
01:55:04,160 --> 01:55:09,040
Speaker 38: if any coaching Josh needs anymore. He's in the league

2238
01:55:09,080 --> 01:55:12,120
Speaker 38: eight years. He's been eight nine years. He's played in

2239
01:55:12,280 --> 01:55:16,160
Speaker 38: every big game other than the Super Bowl. He's the

2240
01:55:16,160 --> 01:55:18,760
Speaker 38: most talented guy in the league. He knows what's going on.

2241
01:55:19,640 --> 01:55:22,400
Speaker 38: The only thing that's ever gonna change Josh a little

2242
01:55:22,400 --> 01:55:27,120
Speaker 38: bit is Josh, we have this unbelievable player who is,

2243
01:55:27,200 --> 01:55:30,280
Speaker 38: without a doubt, the most competitive guy on the field

2244
01:55:30,960 --> 01:55:34,160
Speaker 38: any given game he steps on the field. I don't

2245
01:55:34,200 --> 01:55:37,480
Speaker 38: care who we're playing or who we're playing with. He's

2246
01:55:37,560 --> 01:55:41,000
Speaker 38: the man. He wants to win more than anybody. So

2247
01:55:41,120 --> 01:55:44,040
Speaker 38: until Josh gets it in his head in that moment

2248
01:55:44,600 --> 01:55:47,080
Speaker 38: on the field when he's trying to make that great

2249
01:55:47,160 --> 01:55:51,560
Speaker 38: play with his brain, overtakes his heart just a little

2250
01:55:51,600 --> 01:55:54,080
Speaker 38: bit and pulls that ball in at the end of

2251
01:55:54,080 --> 01:55:56,880
Speaker 38: the first s half against Denver because he knows better.

2252
01:55:57,200 --> 01:55:59,800
Speaker 38: Nobody needs to tell Josh you don't hold the ball

2253
01:55:59,840 --> 01:56:03,200
Speaker 38: out out there and risk of rumble. He knows that

2254
01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:06,760
Speaker 38: he absolutely there isn't anything he's ever been told that

2255
01:56:06,840 --> 01:56:09,560
Speaker 38: he doesn't remember. He knows how to play the game.

2256
01:56:09,920 --> 01:56:13,520
Speaker 38: It's his heart that overtakes things. And we just need

2257
01:56:13,520 --> 01:56:17,400
Speaker 38: to reel that hard and situationally a little bit here

2258
01:56:17,440 --> 01:56:21,920
Speaker 38: and there, because I would never want to ever tamp

2259
01:56:22,000 --> 01:56:25,080
Speaker 38: down his competitiveness. Just need him to take his brain

2260
01:56:25,440 --> 01:56:28,880
Speaker 38: and overturn that just a little bit in certain situations.

2261
01:56:28,920 --> 01:56:31,640
Speaker 3: Okay, Mark, Thanks, Mark, appreciate it got a lot of

2262
01:56:31,640 --> 01:56:36,160
Speaker 3: people to get to get what you're saying. But I

2263
01:56:36,640 --> 01:56:41,600
Speaker 3: do think there's an accountability factor because guys sometimes when

2264
01:56:41,600 --> 01:56:44,200
Speaker 3: they're dealing with the granular level of the things they

2265
01:56:44,240 --> 01:56:47,280
Speaker 3: need to prepare for in a game, sometimes forget the

2266
01:56:47,320 --> 01:56:50,040
Speaker 3: simple things. And it's that's when a head coach or

2267
01:56:50,040 --> 01:56:53,200
Speaker 3: a teammate has to step in and check him. Josh

2268
01:56:53,280 --> 01:56:55,760
Speaker 3: Allen has to get checked just as much as guy

2269
01:56:55,840 --> 01:56:58,680
Speaker 3: fifty three on the roster needs to get checked, or

2270
01:56:58,960 --> 01:57:01,320
Speaker 3: guy with the worst word ethic needs to get checked

2271
01:57:01,320 --> 01:57:05,240
Speaker 3: on the team. It's universal, and it's symbiotic, and it

2272
01:57:05,280 --> 01:57:07,200
Speaker 3: has to happen all the time in this league because

2273
01:57:07,200 --> 01:57:10,440
Speaker 3: the margins are too narrow. Simply simple as that.

2274
01:57:10,960 --> 01:57:15,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right, though. The thing that is that you

2275
01:57:15,200 --> 01:57:19,440
Speaker 1: seem that you might worry about in this transition is

2276
01:57:20,040 --> 01:57:22,600
Speaker 1: what happens to the culture and how does a different

2277
01:57:23,280 --> 01:57:28,600
Speaker 1: voice in front of the room change what happens, you know, organizationally,

2278
01:57:29,000 --> 01:57:32,800
Speaker 1: team wise, it's going to change. It's gonna change. Doesn't

2279
01:57:32,800 --> 01:57:36,000
Speaker 1: mean it has to all go out the window, but

2280
01:57:36,560 --> 01:57:37,520
Speaker 1: it's going to be different.

2281
01:57:38,480 --> 01:57:41,080
Speaker 2: We squeeze in John in Detroit here before the break.

2282
01:57:41,080 --> 01:57:46,160
Speaker 7: What's up, John, gentlemen, thanks for taking my call. And no,

2283
01:57:46,160 --> 01:57:48,240
Speaker 7: I don't think I've heard anybody thank you yet for

2284
01:57:48,280 --> 01:57:50,680
Speaker 7: getting us through the past couple of weeks of earth

2285
01:57:51,240 --> 01:57:56,320
Speaker 7: welcome arrangement syndrome. As you have, you have you've done

2286
01:57:56,360 --> 01:58:00,640
Speaker 7: for many years. So thanks for that again. A lot

2287
01:58:00,680 --> 01:58:05,680
Speaker 7: of people in the opinions I hear are certainly everybody's

2288
01:58:05,760 --> 01:58:08,080
Speaker 7: entitled their opinion, whether there are a bill season ticket

2289
01:58:08,080 --> 01:58:10,160
Speaker 7: over or not. I mean, when I started the nineteen

2290
01:58:10,280 --> 01:58:13,480
Speaker 7: sixties a block from the old rock Pile, and Grandma

2291
01:58:13,480 --> 01:58:14,960
Speaker 7: would give me two bucks to go sit in the

2292
01:58:15,080 --> 01:58:18,320
Speaker 7: end zone. That cost her a lot of money to

2293
01:58:18,360 --> 01:58:22,720
Speaker 7: go wive these new franchise and she taught me the

2294
01:58:22,800 --> 01:58:26,080
Speaker 7: value of a dollar. So parked cars for fifty cents,

2295
01:58:26,120 --> 01:58:27,600
Speaker 7: they give me two bucks. I go to a game.

2296
01:58:28,480 --> 01:58:31,240
Speaker 7: Now I'm paying twenty thousand dollars for next season. So

2297
01:58:31,560 --> 01:58:35,400
Speaker 7: I feel a little more invested in this most recent chapter,

2298
01:58:35,840 --> 01:58:39,800
Speaker 7: and certainly after I think hearing Joe Brady and Josh

2299
01:58:39,920 --> 01:58:45,240
Speaker 7: talked today. As much as I think McDermott earned his

2300
01:58:45,280 --> 01:58:48,840
Speaker 7: way maybe one more season, I think cool had just

2301
01:58:48,880 --> 01:58:51,400
Speaker 7: had had to pull a trigger somehow going into a

2302
01:58:51,440 --> 01:58:53,800
Speaker 7: new ballpark. And if we would have came up with

2303
01:58:53,840 --> 01:58:56,640
Speaker 7: the same result next year with the same crew, it

2304
01:58:56,680 --> 01:59:00,200
Speaker 7: would have had even worse feelings. So I wish them

2305
01:59:00,200 --> 01:59:03,360
Speaker 7: all the best, and I hope to hear the Hall

2306
01:59:03,400 --> 01:59:06,040
Speaker 7: of Famer his opinion on this soon on your show.

2307
01:59:06,640 --> 01:59:09,400
Speaker 7: And Steve, just let let the Hall of Famer know

2308
01:59:09,480 --> 01:59:12,880
Speaker 7: that I recently opened up an old pack of the

2309
01:59:13,640 --> 01:59:20,320
Speaker 7: All Oh the old announcer who's dead now the all

2310
01:59:20,360 --> 01:59:24,320
Speaker 7: Maddened team. Yeah, your card is one of your cards

2311
01:59:24,360 --> 01:59:25,880
Speaker 7: is more valuable than the Hall of Famers, if you

2312
01:59:25,920 --> 01:59:27,400
Speaker 7: want to rub it in. Yet to hear about two

2313
01:59:27,520 --> 01:59:30,080
Speaker 7: fifty and he's it about a bucks seventy five. Can

2314
01:59:30,120 --> 01:59:30,960
Speaker 7: I give it to them for that?

2315
01:59:31,440 --> 01:59:31,800
Speaker 9: All right?

2316
01:59:32,160 --> 01:59:35,160
Speaker 2: Thanks, John, appreciate it. Uh, yeah, I get why you

2317
01:59:35,200 --> 01:59:36,080
Speaker 2: feel more invested.

2318
01:59:36,080 --> 01:59:39,560
Speaker 3: I think we all do, especially with this new building

2319
01:59:39,560 --> 01:59:46,040
Speaker 3: opening across the street next season. But I but yeah,

2320
01:59:46,160 --> 01:59:48,800
Speaker 3: I think Joe hit all the right notes today and

2321
01:59:49,760 --> 01:59:53,200
Speaker 3: I think Josh made it clear how he and the

2322
01:59:53,280 --> 01:59:56,120
Speaker 3: team are going to throw their support behind him and

2323
01:59:56,240 --> 01:59:59,080
Speaker 3: rally to the cause, because that's what you have to

2324
01:59:59,120 --> 02:00:00,880
Speaker 3: do if you want to get to where they still

2325
02:00:00,880 --> 02:00:01,480
Speaker 3: have not got.

2326
02:00:02,480 --> 02:00:03,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's no other way to look at it.

2327
02:00:04,000 --> 02:00:08,240
Speaker 1: And it was nine years under Sean mcdermomy. That's a

2328
02:00:08,280 --> 02:00:12,320
Speaker 1: long time for an NFL head coach, despite the fact

2329
02:00:12,360 --> 02:00:14,680
Speaker 1: that two other guys were let go after sixteen and

2330
02:00:14,800 --> 02:00:18,000
Speaker 1: nineteen years or whatever it was, of John Harbaugh and

2331
02:00:18,040 --> 02:00:21,560
Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin. Is it nine years is a long stretch,

2332
02:00:21,680 --> 02:00:28,040
Speaker 1: and you might have maybe there's some people out there

2333
02:00:28,080 --> 02:00:29,840
Speaker 1: have regrets to letting it go this long. I know

2334
02:00:29,840 --> 02:00:32,160
Speaker 1: we always took you know, those guys are always somebody's

2335
02:00:32,160 --> 02:00:33,840
Speaker 1: always wanting to fire the head coach, no matter what

2336
02:00:34,280 --> 02:00:38,800
Speaker 1: day it is. But it seems to at this point

2337
02:00:38,840 --> 02:00:42,320
Speaker 1: of run its course, and there there's a moment where

2338
02:00:42,960 --> 02:00:44,640
Speaker 1: you know, the future opens up in a way that

2339
02:00:44,640 --> 02:00:47,880
Speaker 1: you haven't seen, uh with it because of a new guy.

2340
02:00:48,440 --> 02:00:50,800
Speaker 1: We don't know what it's going to look like, but

2341
02:00:50,880 --> 02:00:52,760
Speaker 1: on a day like today, it's fun to think about.

2342
02:00:52,920 --> 02:00:55,000
Speaker 3: Break time for us here more of your phone calls

2343
02:00:55,040 --> 02:00:57,640
Speaker 3: when we get back. Maureen in West Seneca and Wendell

2344
02:00:57,680 --> 02:00:59,760
Speaker 3: and Buffalo will lead us off when we return here

2345
02:01:00,120 --> 02:01:02,040
Speaker 3: Bill's Live presented by Toll Lout to help. It's Buffalo,

2346
02:01:02,080 --> 02:01:02,800
Speaker 3: Bill's Brady.

2347
02:01:13,080 --> 02:01:15,879
Speaker 2: Back here on one. Bill's Live on the heels of the.

2348
02:01:16,000 --> 02:01:18,880
Speaker 3: Joe Brady press conference introducing him as the twenty first

2349
02:01:18,920 --> 02:01:22,160
Speaker 3: head coach in Bill's history, counting interim coaches. Back to

2350
02:01:22,200 --> 02:01:24,840
Speaker 3: the phone lines to get your thoughts on it and

2351
02:01:25,160 --> 02:01:28,800
Speaker 3: uh waiting the longest thus far as promised. Maureen in

2352
02:01:28,800 --> 02:01:30,040
Speaker 3: West Seneca, what's up, Maureen?

2353
02:01:31,520 --> 02:01:35,440
Speaker 39: Hey, Oh, I'm so glad they have a new coach.

2354
02:01:35,760 --> 02:01:40,360
Speaker 39: To see Josh Allen and Dion Dawkins actually cry after

2355
02:01:40,880 --> 02:01:44,680
Speaker 39: the losing game that they had. It was so emotional.

2356
02:01:45,440 --> 02:01:49,600
Speaker 39: I mean, it's spread the emotions throughout the TV and

2357
02:01:49,640 --> 02:01:55,640
Speaker 39: the fans and everyone else. And I am also glad

2358
02:01:55,720 --> 02:02:03,240
Speaker 39: that the new coach has uh somewhat holistic approach to

2359
02:02:05,000 --> 02:02:08,600
Speaker 39: the upcoming Bills games. I like when he said he's

2360
02:02:08,920 --> 02:02:13,040
Speaker 39: going to have espresso in the morning and the sports

2361
02:02:13,120 --> 02:02:16,800
Speaker 39: drink to get the energy going and the momentum going.

2362
02:02:18,160 --> 02:02:22,560
Speaker 39: I really like that this is from a woman's perspective.

2363
02:02:22,640 --> 02:02:27,400
Speaker 39: I'm also a substitute special ed teacher, and I'm glad

2364
02:02:27,600 --> 02:02:31,560
Speaker 39: that they have him on board with his knowledge and

2365
02:02:31,600 --> 02:02:46,400
Speaker 39: his abilities and his also foreshadowing energy overall. And my

2366
02:02:46,400 --> 02:02:54,560
Speaker 39: my issue was new the new stadium. I mean, I

2367
02:02:54,640 --> 02:02:58,160
Speaker 39: believe they want to go out with the old and

2368
02:02:58,280 --> 02:03:02,720
Speaker 39: in with the new, so therefore the new stadium I

2369
02:03:02,760 --> 02:03:07,400
Speaker 39: believe has somewhat of a factor of incorporating a new

2370
02:03:07,480 --> 02:03:09,000
Speaker 39: coach into view.

2371
02:03:10,160 --> 02:03:12,960
Speaker 2: Okay, Maureen, thanks for the call. I was with you

2372
02:03:13,080 --> 02:03:13,640
Speaker 2: until the end.

2373
02:03:15,120 --> 02:03:17,280
Speaker 3: As excited as we all are about the new stadium,

2374
02:03:17,360 --> 02:03:20,520
Speaker 3: I don't think it played a role in deciding that

2375
02:03:20,560 --> 02:03:23,320
Speaker 3: a new head coach was needed. I think the point

2376
02:03:23,360 --> 02:03:26,600
Speaker 3: you made about the locker room probably had a little more.

2377
02:03:26,400 --> 02:03:28,600
Speaker 2: To do with it, based on what Terry Pegula told us.

2378
02:03:28,600 --> 02:03:32,160
Speaker 3: Last week, and again I want to reiterate that when

2379
02:03:32,200 --> 02:03:34,840
Speaker 3: mister Pegula was talking about the scene he witnessed in

2380
02:03:34,880 --> 02:03:38,040
Speaker 3: that locker room, I don't think it was that singular

2381
02:03:38,200 --> 02:03:41,840
Speaker 3: scene that convinced him a head coaching change had to

2382
02:03:41,880 --> 02:03:42,280
Speaker 3: be made.

2383
02:03:42,360 --> 02:03:43,200
Speaker 2: I think that was.

2384
02:03:43,160 --> 02:03:47,560
Speaker 3: The last stop and the last straw in a series

2385
02:03:47,600 --> 02:03:53,640
Speaker 3: of things, and that, in his mind, was the breaking point.

2386
02:03:54,560 --> 02:03:57,760
Speaker 3: As he saw it, they could not come back from

2387
02:03:57,880 --> 02:04:01,680
Speaker 3: that moment with the same head coach after nine seasons.

2388
02:04:02,560 --> 02:04:05,840
Speaker 3: I think it was the end of accumulative series of

2389
02:04:05,880 --> 02:04:08,920
Speaker 3: events that convinced him a change needed to be made,

2390
02:04:09,360 --> 02:04:12,880
Speaker 3: and I think he articulated it, tried to articulate it

2391
02:04:12,880 --> 02:04:16,200
Speaker 3: that way. I don't know that everybody understood it that way,

2392
02:04:16,240 --> 02:04:20,840
Speaker 3: but I think that's where he landed. Ultimately, Let's go

2393
02:04:20,880 --> 02:04:22,840
Speaker 3: to Wendell in Buffalo. What's up, Wendell?

2394
02:04:24,400 --> 02:04:25,360
Speaker 40: How you got? How you feel?

2395
02:04:25,360 --> 02:04:26,080
Speaker 27: I was doing good?

2396
02:04:26,720 --> 02:04:32,240
Speaker 40: I'm finally, you know, done with mourning and the press

2397
02:04:32,280 --> 02:04:36,520
Speaker 40: conference and stuff. Kind of restored my faith in the team.

2398
02:04:37,280 --> 02:04:40,400
Speaker 40: And is Sean I mean not Sean.

2399
02:04:40,160 --> 02:04:43,160
Speaker 2: But Joe Brady.

2400
02:04:43,240 --> 02:04:46,560
Speaker 40: Yo, Joe, Yeah, still trying to get used to that.

2401
02:04:47,080 --> 02:04:50,840
Speaker 40: But is he the youngest head coach that we've had?

2402
02:04:51,760 --> 02:04:51,920
Speaker 29: Uh?

2403
02:04:52,800 --> 02:04:56,360
Speaker 40: And then also that the I like the idea of

2404
02:04:56,400 --> 02:04:59,960
Speaker 40: having the grass field, you know, in a new state,

2405
02:05:00,760 --> 02:05:03,120
Speaker 40: because I think that'll cut down on some of those

2406
02:05:04,120 --> 02:05:12,520
Speaker 40: non contact injuries, and is the fisher where they play

2407
02:05:12,920 --> 02:05:14,080
Speaker 40: their thing is that grass.

2408
02:05:14,080 --> 02:05:19,240
Speaker 3: Also they practice on grass fields at training camp. The

2409
02:05:19,280 --> 02:05:22,040
Speaker 3: turf field is there, which is the game field, but

2410
02:05:22,120 --> 02:05:25,040
Speaker 3: they rarely practice on that, or at least they rarely

2411
02:05:25,080 --> 02:05:29,320
Speaker 3: practiced on that. Under Sean McDermott, Joe Brady's thirty six

2412
02:05:29,440 --> 02:05:31,800
Speaker 3: years of age. He is not the youngest head coach

2413
02:05:31,840 --> 02:05:36,440
Speaker 3: ever hired in Bill's history. I believe Joe Collier, who

2414
02:05:36,480 --> 02:05:38,400
Speaker 3: I know was younger than him. He was only thirty

2415
02:05:38,440 --> 02:05:41,800
Speaker 3: three years old when he was hired after the dismissal

2416
02:05:41,880 --> 02:05:47,360
Speaker 3: of lou Saban, is younger than him. I'm trying to

2417
02:05:47,440 --> 02:05:49,520
Speaker 3: rack my brain to see if there was someone even

2418
02:05:49,600 --> 02:05:53,040
Speaker 3: younger than that. I don't believe there was.

2419
02:05:54,680 --> 02:05:56,040
Speaker 2: Joe Collier is the youngest.

2420
02:05:56,040 --> 02:06:01,080
Speaker 1: You're correct, Joe Collier was the youngest, and it Yeah,

2421
02:06:01,120 --> 02:06:03,760
Speaker 1: the grass fields or flair safety is always something and

2422
02:06:03,800 --> 02:06:07,280
Speaker 1: that's one of the things that McDermott brought to the franchise.

2423
02:06:08,120 --> 02:06:12,800
Speaker 1: He also was the driving force behind the upgrading facilities

2424
02:06:12,840 --> 02:06:16,480
Speaker 1: here for the players and the upgraded staffing for the players,

2425
02:06:17,280 --> 02:06:23,400
Speaker 1: the medical, the psychological, sports science, training, nutrition, the weight

2426
02:06:23,520 --> 02:06:28,320
Speaker 1: room and to their credit and That's why Joe Brady

2427
02:06:28,360 --> 02:06:32,240
Speaker 1: saw it and Sean McDermott was appreciative. Terry cut the

2428
02:06:32,320 --> 02:06:34,640
Speaker 1: check and it was a big fat one for this

2429
02:06:34,720 --> 02:06:38,360
Speaker 1: weight room and stuff on this facility, and still cuts

2430
02:06:38,400 --> 02:06:40,520
Speaker 1: the checks for the staffing that goes along with it.

2431
02:06:40,560 --> 02:06:44,200
Speaker 1: I've said this, and I've been tour guide here for

2432
02:06:44,240 --> 02:06:46,000
Speaker 1: a long time because my family comes in and they

2433
02:06:46,000 --> 02:06:48,480
Speaker 1: want to see everything, and I bring friends and family,

2434
02:06:48,520 --> 02:06:50,360
Speaker 1: I walk them through the nickel tour of the building.

2435
02:06:50,360 --> 02:06:55,800
Speaker 1: And as impressive as the weight room is and all

2436
02:06:55,840 --> 02:06:58,080
Speaker 1: the things that it can do, and the stadium in

2437
02:06:58,120 --> 02:07:00,640
Speaker 1: the locker room and all the stuff, the thing that

2438
02:07:00,680 --> 02:07:04,320
Speaker 1: made the difference is the people inside. They staff this

2439
02:07:04,480 --> 02:07:11,320
Speaker 1: building with everything an athlete. It used to be back

2440
02:07:11,520 --> 02:07:13,240
Speaker 1: back in my day, back in the old days, and

2441
02:07:13,280 --> 02:07:16,120
Speaker 1: it's evolved away from it because of the money. But

2442
02:07:16,200 --> 02:07:19,880
Speaker 1: it used to be only really successful player superstars could

2443
02:07:19,920 --> 02:07:22,480
Speaker 1: afford to have their own messuse, or they could afford

2444
02:07:22,520 --> 02:07:25,080
Speaker 1: to have acupuncture treatments, or they could afford to have

2445
02:07:25,120 --> 02:07:28,760
Speaker 1: a buy their own hyperbaric chamber, or go to a

2446
02:07:28,800 --> 02:07:34,160
Speaker 1: place for a cryo, a cryo treatments and cryogenics treatments,

2447
02:07:34,720 --> 02:07:37,520
Speaker 1: all that stuff that is extra that helps you recover

2448
02:07:37,560 --> 02:07:41,160
Speaker 1: and all that Terry buys that for all these guys,

2449
02:07:41,960 --> 02:07:45,480
Speaker 1: they've all got access to that, and that's something that

2450
02:07:45,880 --> 02:07:49,080
Speaker 1: has changed over the course of the McDermott era where

2451
02:07:49,120 --> 02:07:51,080
Speaker 1: and that helped with the culture to make this place

2452
02:07:51,120 --> 02:07:53,760
Speaker 1: a place where free agents, Hey, Buffalo is and Ice,

2453
02:07:53,920 --> 02:07:56,120
Speaker 1: they take care of their guys, let's go. That's one

2454
02:07:56,160 --> 02:07:58,080
Speaker 1: of the things that a lot of us are going, Wow.

2455
02:07:58,160 --> 02:08:01,080
Speaker 1: I hope that continues with Joe Brady, And it seems,

2456
02:08:01,120 --> 02:08:05,080
Speaker 1: of course after this opening press conference that yeah, they're

2457
02:08:05,080 --> 02:08:09,000
Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna double down on that stuff. He loves

2458
02:08:09,000 --> 02:08:12,840
Speaker 1: his players and and they'll let him know. Hey, you know,

2459
02:08:12,960 --> 02:08:16,560
Speaker 1: the word gets around quick, so they'll say, hey, some

2460
02:08:16,600 --> 02:08:18,160
Speaker 1: of the guys are doing this over here, and this

2461
02:08:18,200 --> 02:08:20,280
Speaker 1: team's doing that, and this team's doing that, and the

2462
02:08:20,320 --> 02:08:22,920
Speaker 1: Bills and Terry has never been hesitant to give those

2463
02:08:22,920 --> 02:08:25,480
Speaker 1: guys what they need to recover and be at their best.

2464
02:08:25,600 --> 02:08:28,760
Speaker 1: So that's that was kind of comforting for me to

2465
02:08:28,840 --> 02:08:34,040
Speaker 1: hear Joe and his affection for the players and and

2466
02:08:34,120 --> 02:08:36,720
Speaker 1: his tip of the cap to what McDermott has done

2467
02:08:36,720 --> 02:08:41,440
Speaker 1: in this building. So moving forward, we would expect more

2468
02:08:41,480 --> 02:08:46,520
Speaker 1: of the same and in that regard, and while I said,

2469
02:08:46,600 --> 02:08:49,680
Speaker 1: you know, and like I said before, it's nice to

2470
02:08:49,680 --> 02:08:53,000
Speaker 1: hear that, but it's also obviously it's gonna be a

2471
02:08:53,000 --> 02:08:54,800
Speaker 1: little different energy in the room as well with that

2472
02:08:54,840 --> 02:08:56,960
Speaker 1: head coach. So it's there's a lot to take in

2473
02:08:57,000 --> 02:08:59,960
Speaker 1: on a daylight today. Yeah, what are these changes mean?

2474
02:09:00,120 --> 02:09:02,560
Speaker 1: What are they gonna what are they gonna manifest themselves into?

2475
02:09:03,080 --> 02:09:05,840
Speaker 1: And you know, for more callers, everybody's kind of a

2476
02:09:05,840 --> 02:09:07,400
Speaker 1: little bit excited to find out.

2477
02:09:08,040 --> 02:09:09,120
Speaker 2: Break time for us here.

2478
02:09:09,200 --> 02:09:11,120
Speaker 3: We'll get a couple more phone calls in when we

2479
02:09:11,160 --> 02:09:12,440
Speaker 3: get back here on One Bill's Live.

2480
02:09:12,520 --> 02:09:13,160
Speaker 2: Stay with us.

2481
02:09:28,720 --> 02:09:30,800
Speaker 3: All right, final segment here on a Wednesday edition of

2482
02:09:30,840 --> 02:09:34,160
Speaker 3: One Bill's Live or Thursday edition of One Bill's Live.

2483
02:09:34,600 --> 02:09:36,560
Speaker 2: Gotta Forgive Me. It's been a whirlwind week.

2484
02:09:38,200 --> 02:09:41,640
Speaker 3: And generally positive reaction to Joe Brady here today as

2485
02:09:41,680 --> 02:09:43,720
Speaker 3: well as Josh Allen, who gave a season ending press

2486
02:09:43,720 --> 02:09:45,320
Speaker 3: conference of his own. But let's get back to the

2487
02:09:45,320 --> 02:09:48,000
Speaker 3: phones for what you think and to Ryan in Toronto,

2488
02:09:48,040 --> 02:09:48,800
Speaker 3: what's up, Ryan.

2489
02:09:49,960 --> 02:09:52,560
Speaker 37: Chris, Steve honesty, was a very good press conference, and

2490
02:09:52,880 --> 02:09:55,720
Speaker 37: I think Joe Brady nailed it and was really good.

2491
02:09:56,320 --> 02:10:00,920
Speaker 37: And I know he can't mcgimman Folly's success, but only

2492
02:10:01,080 --> 02:10:04,200
Speaker 37: negative things I have to I want to take away.

2493
02:10:04,880 --> 02:10:08,800
Speaker 37: I know I don't. Brady admitted that, how what are

2494
02:10:08,840 --> 02:10:11,840
Speaker 37: you walking into expectations for the bills and if they

2495
02:10:11,880 --> 02:10:16,560
Speaker 37: don't make an get over the hump? Who's next? Secondly,

2496
02:10:17,240 --> 02:10:19,760
Speaker 37: I noticed how he kept on saying he's part of

2497
02:10:19,800 --> 02:10:23,400
Speaker 37: the Sean Payton tree. And to me, it's a disrespectful

2498
02:10:23,720 --> 02:10:27,040
Speaker 37: to McDermott. He was in mcdermant for almost four years

2499
02:10:27,160 --> 02:10:29,320
Speaker 37: and even from Carain as well, and he was re

2500
02:10:29,360 --> 02:10:33,440
Speaker 37: paiding for one year. And to me that that he's

2501
02:10:33,520 --> 02:10:35,280
Speaker 37: that He's never said that. That's my take.

2502
02:10:35,880 --> 02:10:39,640
Speaker 2: Okay, thanks right. I think a lot of coaches.

2503
02:10:41,000 --> 02:10:45,800
Speaker 3: Look at where they start, as you know, the origin

2504
02:10:45,880 --> 02:10:52,280
Speaker 3: of their coaching philosophies, and that's professionally in the professional ranks.

2505
02:10:52,640 --> 02:10:56,440
Speaker 3: That's where Joe Brady started. He was under Sean Payton

2506
02:10:56,920 --> 02:10:59,080
Speaker 3: and Joe Lombardi and that whole crew.

2507
02:10:59,720 --> 02:11:01,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's easy to see why he would say

2508
02:11:02,240 --> 02:11:06,520
Speaker 1: a guy like Sean Payton because he's an offensive coordinator,

2509
02:11:06,760 --> 02:11:10,720
Speaker 1: the other coordinator and it's and he did give kudos

2510
02:11:10,760 --> 02:11:12,920
Speaker 1: to Sean and I don't if you ask him, I'm

2511
02:11:12,920 --> 02:11:15,480
Speaker 1: sure Joe would tell you all the things that you

2512
02:11:15,520 --> 02:11:17,760
Speaker 1: give you a list of everything he took from Sean McDermott.

2513
02:11:17,760 --> 02:11:19,920
Speaker 1: In fact, maybe more as a head coach than a

2514
02:11:20,280 --> 02:11:21,360
Speaker 1: than an assistant coach.

2515
02:11:21,840 --> 02:11:21,960
Speaker 30: Uh.

2516
02:11:22,320 --> 02:11:26,000
Speaker 1: But yeah, Sean Payton is probably where Joe Brady feels

2517
02:11:26,040 --> 02:11:29,240
Speaker 1: like he grew the most and something and then shaped

2518
02:11:29,240 --> 02:11:32,640
Speaker 1: his offense, shaped his growth to the point where he's

2519
02:11:32,640 --> 02:11:36,440
Speaker 1: at now. But that doesn't mean he was disrespectful to

2520
02:11:36,480 --> 02:11:40,160
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott. And yeah he was, And but I get

2521
02:11:40,200 --> 02:11:44,960
Speaker 1: your point, And but I think that's I think that's

2522
02:11:45,000 --> 02:11:47,480
Speaker 1: a nod to Sean Payton and his influence on him

2523
02:11:47,480 --> 02:11:48,440
Speaker 1: as an offensive guy.

2524
02:11:48,920 --> 02:11:49,080
Speaker 16: Uh.

2525
02:11:49,080 --> 02:11:51,200
Speaker 1: And of course Seawan was always a defensive guy. But

2526
02:11:51,240 --> 02:11:53,280
Speaker 1: there's no question as a head coach, he may tell

2527
02:11:53,320 --> 02:11:56,840
Speaker 1: you that Sean McDermott was a bigger influence on him.

2528
02:11:56,840 --> 02:11:58,320
Speaker 1: I don't know that, but yes, I get it.

2529
02:11:58,240 --> 02:12:01,320
Speaker 3: And your concerns about what the standard has to be

2530
02:12:01,400 --> 02:12:03,480
Speaker 3: going forward with Joe Brady, that's real.

2531
02:12:03,600 --> 02:12:05,760
Speaker 1: Expectations are going to come around the corner and that's

2532
02:12:05,760 --> 02:12:06,400
Speaker 1: going to be the.

2533
02:12:07,040 --> 02:12:09,560
Speaker 3: Storyline, and he's not backing down from it. Yeah, he

2534
02:12:09,640 --> 02:12:11,680
Speaker 3: knows what it is. He knows what he's walking into

2535
02:12:11,760 --> 02:12:15,120
Speaker 3: and I give him credit for embracing it rather than,

2536
02:12:15,480 --> 02:12:17,640
Speaker 3: you know, keeping it, keeping it at arm's length.

2537
02:12:17,760 --> 02:12:19,920
Speaker 2: He knows, he's ready to be real about it.

2538
02:12:20,000 --> 02:12:22,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, he acknowledged It's he didn't come here to run

2539
02:12:22,920 --> 02:12:26,280
Speaker 1: from expectations, and those were something about along the lines

2540
02:12:26,280 --> 02:12:29,160
Speaker 1: of his words. So yeah, that's you're right. The expectations

2541
02:12:29,520 --> 02:12:32,640
Speaker 1: are really the downside to this organizam to this job offer,

2542
02:12:32,680 --> 02:12:35,200
Speaker 1: because you got so many other things that all the

2543
02:12:35,240 --> 02:12:37,160
Speaker 1: other head coaching vacancies do not have.

2544
02:12:37,920 --> 02:12:40,080
Speaker 3: But there's no I mean, he knows there's no guarantees

2545
02:12:40,080 --> 02:12:41,840
Speaker 3: in this league, just like every other coach.

2546
02:12:41,920 --> 02:12:44,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, this isn't a three and thirteen franchise looking to rebuild.

2547
02:12:45,720 --> 02:12:48,000
Speaker 2: Let's go to Jim in West Seneca. What's up, Jim?

2548
02:12:48,680 --> 02:12:49,480
Speaker 41: How you doing today?

2549
02:12:49,560 --> 02:12:49,760
Speaker 1: Good?

2550
02:12:49,760 --> 02:12:51,120
Speaker 24: Good good?

2551
02:12:51,200 --> 02:12:53,800
Speaker 41: He just wanted to just a couple of comments. I

2552
02:12:53,840 --> 02:12:57,120
Speaker 41: wanted to say good luck to Brady. I still don't

2553
02:12:57,160 --> 02:13:01,760
Speaker 41: agree with the McDermott firing was over eighty one five

2554
02:13:01,880 --> 02:13:05,400
Speaker 41: hundred votes. Belots, what do you want to say put

2555
02:13:05,440 --> 02:13:09,040
Speaker 41: in to keep him? To reinstate him on change dot org.

2556
02:13:09,960 --> 02:13:14,880
Speaker 41: That being said, this is an organization Pegoula runs it.

2557
02:13:14,960 --> 02:13:18,280
Speaker 41: That's his decision, and we all unfortunately have to respect that.

2558
02:13:19,400 --> 02:13:22,480
Speaker 41: You know, it's not a personality contest. But going back

2559
02:13:22,520 --> 02:13:24,960
Speaker 41: to Brady, I wish him good luck. I don't think

2560
02:13:24,960 --> 02:13:26,640
Speaker 41: they had a choice but to hire him. He was

2561
02:13:26,680 --> 02:13:30,040
Speaker 41: the best candidate, all right, and they are under pressure.

2562
02:13:30,880 --> 02:13:34,280
Speaker 41: The only gaffes that I seen that Buffalo made was

2563
02:13:34,800 --> 02:13:38,520
Speaker 41: never should have lost the Dolphins. Never should have lost Atlanta.

2564
02:13:38,680 --> 02:13:42,280
Speaker 41: The other two losses they could have gone either way.

2565
02:13:42,480 --> 02:13:44,800
Speaker 41: But I wish Brady good luck. He's gonna need it

2566
02:13:44,800 --> 02:13:48,040
Speaker 41: with all the signings he's got, and hopefully they'll piece

2567
02:13:48,120 --> 02:13:48,800
Speaker 41: up for the task.

2568
02:13:48,960 --> 02:13:50,880
Speaker 2: All right, Thanks Jim for the final ball. We're at

2569
02:13:50,880 --> 02:13:51,280
Speaker 2: a time.

2570
02:13:52,280 --> 02:13:55,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, those those losses that the team came out flat for,

2571
02:13:56,600 --> 02:13:59,040
Speaker 3: they were a persistent problem year over year, and I

2572
02:13:59,040 --> 02:14:03,040
Speaker 3: think it contributed to the decision that Terry Pagoula ultimately.

2573
02:14:02,840 --> 02:14:04,520
Speaker 1: Shouldn't have lost it. In my opinion, they shouldn't have

2574
02:14:04,520 --> 02:14:07,800
Speaker 1: lost the Patriots in the first game either, with three turnovers,

2575
02:14:07,800 --> 02:14:09,440
Speaker 1: all self inflicted.

2576
02:14:09,080 --> 02:14:09,920
Speaker 2: Two in their own end.

2577
02:14:10,840 --> 02:14:12,640
Speaker 1: It's a crusher on a three point game, so that

2578
02:14:12,760 --> 02:14:14,440
Speaker 1: you take those three losses and put them in and

2579
02:14:14,520 --> 02:14:17,280
Speaker 1: you're all sudden fifteen and two instead of twelve and five.

2580
02:14:17,080 --> 02:14:19,240
Speaker 3: And you're not only a division winner, you're probably the

2581
02:14:19,240 --> 02:14:21,840
Speaker 3: one seed. Also, that's it for us today, Steve and

2582
02:14:21,840 --> 02:14:24,120
Speaker 3: I'll wrap up the week with you tomorrow. We'll see

2583
02:14:24,160 --> 02:14:36,000
Speaker 3: you at one
