Sign up to donate 37 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 3: at connectlife dot org. Well, it got off to a 38 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 3: quick start for the Bills, something they had not done 39 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 3: in recent weeks, and the fast start only persisted all 40 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 3: the way through the game. Seattle Seahawks did a little 41 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 3: bit to help the Bills out and make it a 42 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 3: wider margin than probably it should have been. But you 43 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 3: can't blame the Bills for the Seahawks making mistakes. He 44 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 3: took advantage of those mistakes and made him pay for it. 45 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 3: And in the end, it's a twenty one point victory, 46 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 3: the fourth victory this season by twenty one points or more. 47 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 3: They are the only team in the league that can 48 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 3: say that. And they're also the only team in the 49 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 3: league that has won by twenty points or more twice 50 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 3: on the road this season through the first eight weeks. 51 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 2: Yes, certainly is a different kind of game than we've 52 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 2: seen the Bills. And they looked like they were hitting 53 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 2: on all cylinders and they did. They got some help, 54 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: and you've heard about it. And I don't want to 55 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 2: just you know, discredit what the Bills did, because they 56 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 2: played a better game than we've seen him play wire 57 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 2: to wire this entire season. But you know, the Seahawks 58 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 2: going down and blowing two golden opportunities to score touchdown 59 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: inside the five yard line, one where the ball is 60 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 2: snapped over the top of his head and it turns 61 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 2: into a you know, a football folly's kind of play, 62 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: and then Gino getting stepped on as he's back in 63 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: at least not right. So Gino gets stepped on back 64 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 2: and out and turns into nothing for them. The interception 65 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 2: Josh through the first one of the season. We all 66 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 2: know he makes the tackle and it's saves it. I mean, 67 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 2: they don't get any points out of it. Yeah, stuff 68 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 2: like that all went the Buffalo Bills way. It turned 69 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 2: into a route on the scoreboard. Seattle is not a 70 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 2: bad football team. I don't think they're twenty one points 71 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 2: worse than the Bills. But I'll say this, that was 72 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 2: a clean game by the Buffalo Bills. They gave the 73 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 2: Seattle Seahawks nothing and took advantage of every Seahawks miscue. 74 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 2: And that's what it takes to win by three touchdowns. 75 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 5: It was. 76 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 2: It was a thumping and the Bills looked there. I 77 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: think as good as they've looked all year in this game. 78 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 3: As close to their most complete games. 79 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 2: I still think there's more in the gas tank. Do 80 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,679 Speaker 2: what you think. I think they can't do some things, 81 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: but man o, man, they're getting better. 82 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 3: Taking into account that we had the officiating crew that 83 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 3: has thrown more flags than any other crew in the 84 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 3: league this season, there was still a healthy number of 85 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 3: pre snap penalties in this game. Granted Seattle had their 86 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 3: share too, but we know that for Sean McDermott, as 87 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 3: he says himself, those are on negotiables. The pre snap 88 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 3: penalties and there were a healthy number of them in 89 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 3: the game on Sunday. Now, to their credit, they were 90 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 3: able to overcome it. I mean they had two ten 91 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 3: yard penalties and a five yard penalty on the first 92 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 3: possession of the game. They go fourteen plays ninety yards 93 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 3: and stick it in the end zone with twenty five 94 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 3: yards of penalties. Their total yards gained on the on 95 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 3: the drive was one hundred and. 96 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 2: Ten yards with a touchdown on the board. Anyway, it 97 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: was one hundred and ten yard drive. They overcame twenty 98 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 2: yards it. Man, oh man, you talk about a circuitous 99 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: route to the end zone. You just knew on they 100 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 2: that It was like, man, there's just there's just no 101 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 2: way they can keep this going. They can't. You know, 102 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 2: it's first and twenty. 103 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh my gosh against the better defense, that 104 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 3: that will be a problem, Like it will cost you 105 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 3: points of. 106 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 2: Course, that and that may be a one of a 107 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 2: kind drive all year. You know, they netted ninety yards 108 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 2: on it. And I'll say this too. It the guys 109 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 2: who we thought were going to contribute to this offense 110 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 2: not only did, but they did it in a consistent 111 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: and big way. Kalilshakir was spectacular again, caught nine of 112 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 2: ten targets. Kincaid was where he was supposed to be, 113 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 2: particularly early in the in the game, they hit Kincaid 114 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 2: for a nice little blitz pickup, and when you do 115 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 2: stuff like that, they stopped blitzing. Seattle struggled to get pressure, 116 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 2: and that's something they had leaned on coming into this game. 117 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 2: So the Bills offensive line was there. They played more 118 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: snaps of six offensive linemen than anybody in the league. 119 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 2: They had ten snaps of six offensive linemen in this game, 120 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 2: which is a big number, and they and they were 121 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 2: productive in all of it. Even Jalen Virgil got on 122 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 2: the field and I told you if he's going to 123 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 2: be at that was surprised. Jalen Virgil was the guy 124 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 2: that came up. Ran a lot of motion. That's about it. 125 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 2: A lot of pre snaps. I'll say, what, that's a 126 00:06:55,800 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 2: culture activation. Well, they're keeping guys engaged. Vergion Juel was 127 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 2: doing some things in practice, playing well, practicing hard, doing everything, 128 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 2: and they rewarded him with a game jersey. And the 129 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,239 Speaker 2: guy goes out and gets on the field on offense. 130 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 2: Kudos to him. I mean It keeps guys on the 131 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: practice squad engage and working hard and trying to get better. 132 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 2: They're not just coasting. It showed up Keon Coleman. You 133 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 2: can just you can look at him and tell he 134 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 2: feels differently about the way he's playing right now than 135 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 2: he did early in the season. That guy is now 136 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 2: getting back to the kind of player he looked like 137 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 2: at Florida State, where he's kind of the big brother 138 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 2: out there. Now he's like a senior right playing out there. 139 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 2: He had great attitude, great physicality, playing like, you know, 140 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 2: playing like a dog. He didn't do that early in 141 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 2: the season because as a young player, you're like, you know, 142 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 2: am I supposed to do this? How am I fitting 143 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 2: in him? Is this going all right? Not so much anymore. 144 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 2: Now he's he's spreading his wings and playing the way 145 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 2: you know we've seen him play as a as a 146 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 2: younger player or an older player in college, now a 147 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 2: young player in the NFL. The comeback, the touchdown over Woolan, 148 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 2: and I made this point last night. I don't know 149 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 2: if I don't know if you uh think this brownie, 150 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 2: the one going to the right side is better for 151 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 2: a right handed guy as a receiver because you go 152 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 2: up with a strong hand on the outside. On the 153 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 2: previous play, they went the other side right and Woolan 154 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 2: was talking some smack and you know they did all game, 155 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 2: but then to come right back and he got him 156 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 2: one hand, caught him one handed with Woolan's arm up 157 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 2: through the crook of his elbow. That's hard, man, that's 158 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 2: hard to do. Uh. And here's the funny thing. 159 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 3: So we go to the postgame press room and they 160 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 3: bring Keon and khalil in and he's been you know, 161 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 3: I'm sitting in there where he's being asked, you know 162 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 3: about the touchdown, and he said it so matter of factly, 163 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 3: like you know, it didn't work on the first play. 164 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 3: He's like yeah, he goes, I came back in the huddle. 165 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 3: I told Josh just throw it higher, like just matter 166 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 3: of factly, throw it higher. I'll get it. Like, well, 167 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 3: he didn't throw it high enough, Like throw it higher. 168 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 3: I'll just go get it where he can't get it, 169 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 3: because I have a thirty eight inch vertical and I 170 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 3: can do that. Like It's like Brandon Bean said after 171 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 3: he drafted him, he is an above the rim player. 172 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 3: He gives the Bills something they have not had in 173 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 3: years here, which is a guy that can catch a 174 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 3: ball ten feet in the air and not even blink. 175 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 3: I mean, he's not even straining to do that. 176 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 2: It was an impressive series right there. It was the 177 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 2: first one of the game that they had. It was 178 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 2: one hundred and ten yards gross ninety yards net after 179 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 2: twenty yards in penalties that they overcame at one point 180 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 2: before they shut things down. Offensively, they were eight of 181 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 2: twelve on third down. They just did so much right 182 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 2: in this game. The first half was played unlike this 183 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 2: first drive here. That was nice. And then the weather 184 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 2: broke and it started pouring rain, and you saw the 185 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 2: results of that. You know, guys are having trouble handling 186 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 2: the ball. Josh kicks the thing and kicks it forward. 187 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 2: Then you know, you talk about the bad breaks that 188 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 2: the Seahawks got, the Bills got a couple of nice ones. 189 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 2: First of all, that kick fumble going forward first down. 190 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 2: I was fortunate, you know, stuff like that going on. 191 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 2: It a great game for the Bills, no question about it. 192 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 2: Tough place to go play. Bill's mafia showed up. I 193 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 2: had family out there that said there were Bills fans 194 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 2: all over the city all weekend. 195 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,439 Speaker 3: From the from the broadcast booth, it was difficult to discern, 196 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 3: at least on the other side of the stadium Bills 197 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 3: fans from Seattle fans, unless you really like pulled out 198 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 3: the binoculars and started scanning. Because the older Seahawks jerseys 199 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 3: are a very similar blue hue to Bill's blue jerseys. 200 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 3: I realized that the Bill's numbers are outlined in red, 201 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 3: and that's a you know, a difference obviously that you 202 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 3: can try to notice. But if you're just looking at 203 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,199 Speaker 3: the sea of humanity, it's kind of hard to separate 204 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 3: one from the other, especially on the other side of 205 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,559 Speaker 3: the stadium away from us. You know, some people are like, oh, 206 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 3: it was you know, forty sixty fifty fifty. It wasn't 207 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 3: that high. 208 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 2: It was loud, though it was loud. Gino, he was noticeable, 209 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 2: Yes he did, and yeah, there's there's something there. I 210 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: know that a lot of Bills fans from Buffalo, from 211 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 2: the region in this area like to go to away 212 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 2: games every year, and they like to go to new places, 213 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 2: and Seattle's a place where the Bills don't play very often, 214 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 2: and a lot of people made that trip obviously, as 215 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 2: we you know we saw from all the postgame comments. 216 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 3: Right, so we want your takeaways, your biggest takeaways from 217 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 3: the Bills thirty one ten went over the Seahawks. You 218 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 3: can do that by giving us a call at DUTO 219 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 3: three zero five fifty one eight eight eight five fifty 220 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 3: two five fifty Those are the numbers to get on board, 221 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 3: and we do have open lines for you just to 222 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 3: run through a couple of particulars. This is the fourteenth 223 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 3: time that the Bills have started a season with a 224 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 3: six and two record or better. It's the fourth time 225 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 3: in the show John McDermott and Josh Allen era they 226 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 3: made the playoffs. The previous thirteen times that they have 227 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 3: started six and two. Buffalo did not start a season 228 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 3: with a six and two record or better from nineteen 229 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 3: ninety four to twenty eighteen. As we know, that was 230 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 3: the drought and then some The only time they improved 231 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 3: to seven and two was in twenty twenty when they 232 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 3: went thirteen and four. So they've been six and two before, 233 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 3: but they haven't improved to seven and two but once 234 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 3: twenty twenty. That was the only time they did it. 235 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:40,719 Speaker 3: And as we know, the Bills have won each of 236 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 3: their last three games. It's their second three game winning 237 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 3: streak of the season because they won their first three 238 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 3: games this year before they dropped those two. They have won, 239 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 3: as we said, four games by twenty one points or more. 240 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 3: That's the most such games in the league right now. 241 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 3: Second in the NFL in point differential at plus eighty four. 242 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 3: Only the Lions are better at plus one hundred, and 243 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 3: that's because they won four fifty two to fourteen yesterday. 244 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 3: It's Allen's sixth game with a one hundred plus passer rating. 245 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 3: His touchdown pass to Kincaid tied him with Joe Ferguson 246 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 3: for second most touchdown passes in Bill Josh, So. 247 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 2: We went back to today, Josh is forty three and three. 248 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 2: When he has a quarterback rating of one hundred or better, 249 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 2: forty three and three, he's he's playing a different he's 250 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 2: playing a different brand of football this year, no question 251 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 2: about it. The team six and two and looking to 252 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 2: go seven and two against a Miami team that got 253 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,079 Speaker 2: nipped at the wire yesterday. Yeah, we'll get into that 254 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 2: when we go around the NFL. 255 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 3: Because not only did things fall the right way for 256 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 3: the Bills with some of the things that went on 257 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 3: in the game yesterday against the Seahawks with the Seahawks 258 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 3: two major mishaps in goal to go situations, but a 259 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 3: lot that happened around the league conference wise for Buffalo 260 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 3: was very favorable as well. But we should get to 261 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 3: the phones because we got people waiting already at eight 262 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 3: oh three five point fifty one, eight five fifty two, 263 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 3: five fifty and we lead off today with Mark in 264 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 3: West Seneca. 265 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 6: What's up Mark, Good afternoon, guys, Welcome home, Brownie. Thanks 266 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 6: real quick. A couple of things I have a question 267 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 6: for you guys, and maybe Steve you can address this 268 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 6: in particular because you obviously you were a player. The 269 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 6: penalty thing. Obviously, the players need to keep their composure 270 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 6: and those pre snap penalties are you know, unacceptable as 271 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 6: as in McDermott says, non negotiables. But when you look 272 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 6: at these guys who play an emotional game, and I'm 273 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 6: sure they were feeling like some of those holding calls 274 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 6: and things that they were getting called for, especially especially 275 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 6: right at the starter drives that they were ticky TACKI 276 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 6: they were. They shouldn't have been called this and that 277 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 6: isn't it a little bit hard to keep your emotions 278 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 6: and anger out of it and refocus maybe for a 279 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 6: player or too after it happens, because you believe you're 280 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 6: playing saying so well and you're doing everything you can. 281 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 6: And I just find it amazing now the Jets game 282 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 6: and then this game that the owners can look at 283 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 6: a game like that and not be embarrassed at what 284 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 6: their refereeing crews are doing and not want I mean, 285 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 6: they need to address this. 286 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 7: They need to address this. 287 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 6: And then the other thing I wanted to comment on 288 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 6: real quick is KEII Coleman coming out. He was the 289 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 6: one guy I did not want and it was basically 290 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 6: based on the fact that we kept hearing he didn't separate. 291 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 6: But now watching him, he is much more of an 292 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 6: athlete than I thought he was. He's certainly not a 293 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 6: just tall, stiff, physical guy who can run a little bit. 294 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 6: He's got some shaking bait in this game, and I 295 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 6: believe we're really watching this kid grow up and is 296 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 6: surely going to be a number one wide out. So 297 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 6: I just think the kid has just got the sky's 298 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 6: the limit with him now. So that's my comments, guys. 299 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 2: Thanks, Yeah, I mean, we told you all after the draft. 300 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 3: Just watching him in OTAs Keon Coleman is what personnel 301 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 3: execs call a loose athlete. What that means is there 302 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 3: is no stiffness in his hips or his joints, you 303 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 3: know where turning and moving and body control and contorting 304 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 3: his body to adjust to a football in the air 305 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 3: is difficult for him. It all comes very easy and 306 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 3: natural to him, and you can just see it when 307 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 3: he's out there. I remember saying on the air with 308 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 3: Steve back in June. He's a six ' three athlete, 309 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 3: but he plays with the fluidity of somebody who's five 310 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 3: to nine, which you don't see all the time in 311 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 3: six three athletes. And because of that, it affords him 312 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 3: a wider catch radius. His thirty eight inch vertical doesn't 313 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 3: hurt either, because he can just go up into the 314 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 3: sky and catch a football. As we saw yesterday, he 315 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 3: didn't even have to jump that high for that one. 316 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 3: But I guess what I'm saying is the athleticism was 317 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 3: already in there. Here's the thing, and I know I'm 318 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 3: going to sound like a broken record when I say it. 319 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 3: Player development here is important. It is stressed, it is emphasized, 320 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 3: it is demanded from the coaching staff, and to their credit, 321 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 3: more often than not they come through. What was talked 322 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 3: about with Keon Coleman was his inability to separate to 323 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 3: the point of the caller mark, and he was criticized 324 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 3: for the consistency of his releases off the line of scrimmage. 325 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 3: He drew that penalty down the field yesterday because he 326 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 3: won on the release. The guy had to grab him 327 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 3: to keep him from making a play. 328 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that is player development. 329 00:17:55,880 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 3: He's already better at some of his releases because because 330 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 3: of coach Adam Henry and the coaching staff and the 331 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 3: things that he's learning each and every week. And to 332 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 3: the caller's point, yes, he is growing up right before 333 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 3: our eyes. But players get here and they get better. 334 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 3: It's because of player development. And it's important because you're 335 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 3: depending on a guy like that come the end of 336 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 3: the season, and now you can because of the development 337 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 3: you've pulled out of him. 338 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's he is getting better. Everybody can see, and 339 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 2: he's playing with a better even his attitude is you 340 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 2: can tell he's in a different spot confident mentally, he's 341 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 2: much more confident, much more sure of himself, and much 342 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 2: more prepared because of it and he's playing like that. 343 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 2: I say this about the penalties, No, the owners aren't embarrassed. 344 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 2: They may not like it, but you got to remember, 345 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: not every officiating crew calls thirty four penalty. He throws 346 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 2: thirty four flags in a game. So if you get 347 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 2: one crew that's doing that, they'll address it, maybe in 348 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,919 Speaker 2: the off season, but for the most and I'll tell 349 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 2: you this too, you don't want owners calling the vice 350 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 2: president of officiating getting their noses into the league after the 351 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 2: season has already started when you're rolling along that. That's 352 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 2: they'll leave that to the experts. Uh, the league handles it. 353 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 2: They'll talk to those guys and they'll evaluate how they 354 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 2: want them done. Now as far as the players go, Yeah, 355 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 2: pre snap penalties, you don't need Ron torboard calling. You know, 356 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 2: you don't need the most officiating you know, the most 357 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 2: flag throwing officiating crew ever to call pre snaps. There's 358 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 2: you know, you got to get it right. And if 359 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 2: they are calling it close where you feel like it's 360 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 2: TICKI tack or you've got called for penalties, it didn't 361 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 2: even realize. You gotta adjust. Players are used to that, 362 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 2: so yes, it's no fun and the Bills have had 363 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 2: two those games where there's a ton of penalties called 364 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,360 Speaker 2: and it's likeugh, like that. Yes, but not every game 365 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 2: in the league, obviously, not every game in the league 366 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 2: is like that. I don't think it's a Buffalo Bills problem. 367 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 2: I think it's the luck of the draw with those 368 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 2: officiating crews and the opponents of the Bills were playing 369 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 2: and the way the games went. I don't think it's 370 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 2: any sinister conspiracy against you know, Spencer Brown. You know, 371 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 2: none of that's going on there, So don't get all 372 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 2: caught up in some big, you know, spider web of 373 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 2: intrigue about how the officiating is doled out in the NFL. 374 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 2: Is none of that going on. These officiating crews, they 375 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 2: start tracking them because they get personalities some of them, 376 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 2: and they do see things differently than other crews do. 377 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 2: But the players are They. 378 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 3: Get evaluated every week, they coaches and the league, everybody. 379 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 2: The misnomer is that they never get held accountable. Yes 380 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: they do, Yes they do, and listen, they're trying to 381 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 2: do their best, and I listen. I was the last 382 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 2: guy you could convince of that when I was a player, 383 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 2: you know, right, I mean, I was like everybody else. 384 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 2: I was like, you guys, you doing it on purpose, 385 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 2: you know the whole thing I was. I was horrible 386 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 2: to the officials when I was playing, and then as 387 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 2: I got into broadcasting, I brumped up against him. I 388 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 2: started talking to them and I listened to their conversations 389 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 2: about their mindset when they're doing the games, what they're thinking, 390 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 2: what they're looking at, how they prepare that Listen there, 391 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 2: it's a total profession. They take it very seriously. They 392 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 2: have no clue and no idea, and they do not 393 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,360 Speaker 2: care what color the jerseys are that they're doing. They 394 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 2: are doing the best they can and they and they 395 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 2: get in the spot where if it's a penalty, they 396 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 2: want to call it. And some of these guys say, now, 397 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 2: I'm gonna let that. That's not an advantage. I'm not 398 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 2: gonna call that unless the guy gets an advantage by 399 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 2: doing it. So the players adjust to that. You know, 400 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 2: it's it's all human being stuff. Man. Some of these guys, 401 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 2: you feel like they're a little more persnickety and got 402 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 2: to call this. Another guy's I'm gonna let him play 403 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 2: because nobody's getting an advantage doing this, and I don't 404 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 2: want to start throwing flags every play. It's that kind 405 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 2: of stuff and that's why these that's why and there's 406 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 2: that's why the teams have files on the officiating cruise. 407 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 2: That's why websites have been popped up around here because 408 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 2: people are like noticing that. It's a thing. It's you know, 409 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 2: these officiating crews have their personalities and the way they 410 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 2: do things, and it changes year to year. 411 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 3: Let's get back to the phones and to Jim in Penfield. 412 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,439 Speaker 8: What's up, Jim, Hey, how are you doing. Thanks for 413 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 8: taking my call. Guys, Steve, have you seen the New 414 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 8: York papers? And oh take a look, man, you're gonna 415 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,959 Speaker 8: love what they're talking about with the Jets anywhere. 416 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 2: We'll get to that. Look, we're gonna get to that 417 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 2: in a minute. 418 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 8: Yeah. Anyway, I want to congratulate h Josh on his 419 00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:00,640 Speaker 8: Paul O'Neill imitation there. And I really think the receiving 420 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:06,719 Speaker 8: crew has improved tremendously. Kean has really pulled away. The 421 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,640 Speaker 8: rest of the guys are just absolutely tambulous. And as 422 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 8: for the officiating, well, you know, there are over officious 423 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 8: jerks in this league. So we'll leave it at that 424 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 8: and you guys have a good day. Take care by. 425 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 2: Bye, all right, thanks Jim. Yeah. 426 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 3: I mean, look, we were talking about it at the 427 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 3: beginning of the year. We thought this was a receiving 428 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 3: corps that had four new parts out of five. One 429 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 3: has been swapped out already to make an improvement, that 430 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 3: being Valdez Scantling for Amari Cooper, and I think we 431 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 3: all were of the opinion that it was a group 432 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 3: that was going to need to grow together and assimilate 433 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 3: themselves into the passing game. 434 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 2: Of this offense. 435 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 3: And with that degree of change eighty percent in your 436 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 3: receiving room, it was going to take some time. It 437 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 3: wasn't going to look like a well oiled machine in 438 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 3: the first half of the season. But we kind of 439 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 3: all saw this over the last couple of weeks, basically 440 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 3: since Houston, which was probably the low water mark, they 441 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 3: got steadily better and better each of the last three weeks, 442 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 3: all in wins, by the way, even when it didn't 443 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 3: look fantastic, but you could kind of see it molding 444 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 3: and shaping and coming together and guys settling into roles. 445 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 3: And I think maybe Amari Cooper's arrival accelerated that, because look, 446 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 3: that guy's got one catch for three yards yesterday. Don't 447 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 3: tell me it didn't impact the game. The way the 448 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 3: way Seattle deployed their coverages, it provided opportunities to Shakir underneath, 449 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 3: Concaid down the seam and Coleman because of all the 450 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 3: attention that was being paid to Cooper yesterday. And yeah, 451 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 3: Cooper didn't beat the Seahawks. 452 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 2: Everybody else did. Yeah, And that's that's why it's gonna be. 453 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 2: That's why this offense is going to be a handful 454 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 2: because they can beat you in multitude of guys in 455 00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,040 Speaker 2: different ways, in different alignments and different personnel sets. That 456 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 2: you're right, brownie, that it's when you look back, hopefully, 457 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 2: when you look back on this season and how it developed, 458 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 2: you'll think it was it was great that they could 459 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 2: win these games early in the season, not playing their 460 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 2: best and not knowing each other as well as they did. 461 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 2: Because if it continues to grow like it has, it's 462 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 2: going to reach critical mass to the point where they're 463 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 2: gonna look pretty hard to be. They're gonna look like 464 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 2: the Lions offense does now, like they're just everybody's like 465 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:29,199 Speaker 2: just snapping off big play after big play. That's the 466 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 2: next two or three steps away from where they're at 467 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 2: right now. So it's been exactly the way Brownie and 468 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 2: I kind of hypothesized this might look, except that we 469 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 2: thought they'd lean on their defense before their defense lost 470 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 2: five starters for a Houston game. But we thought they'd 471 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 2: lean on their defense a little bit early in the 472 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 2: season so that the offense could do Actually it's the opposite. 473 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 2: We thought they their offense would have to score some 474 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 2: points because their defense was going to be learning on 475 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 2: the fly in actuality, everybody's doing it together. I mean, 476 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 2: their offense was just good enough, their defense was just 477 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 2: good enough. They scored a lot of points early on 478 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 2: against some against some teams, against some teams that weren't 479 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 2: everything they had hoped to be. I mean, it just 480 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 2: kind of came together like that. And when you can 481 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 2: win games when you're not playing really that well, that's great. 482 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 2: That's a goal. Yeah, when you because when you do 483 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 2: play well, man, you're let's go. You know, you're flying high, 484 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 2: which is where they are. It's a second three games 485 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 2: in a row. Now, we'll see this this game this 486 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 2: week against the Miami Dolphins. They're gonna be desperate to win. 487 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 2: It's gonna be in Orchard Park, a very desperate team. 488 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 2: You're you're gonna have to buckle it up against these 489 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 2: guys this weekend. 490 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 3: Let's go to Judy in Buffalo next. What's up, Judy? 491 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 9: Okay, if I'm not mistaken, we have about a week 492 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 9: left to the trade deadline, and about this time last year. 493 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 9: Maybe I'm wrong, but we were able to acquire Rasoul 494 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 9: Douglas terrific asset to our team. So at this point 495 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 9: I would like to see the Bills obtain another quality 496 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:15,919 Speaker 9: defensive player. And I point out the fact yesterday the 497 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 9: Ravens had a complete meltdown on defense. I mean, they 498 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 9: have probably the best offense in the league, but it's 499 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 9: not going to do any good unless you can control 500 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 9: the other part of the game. 501 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 10: So I hope we get I. 502 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 8: Hope we pursue somebody. 503 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 9: A lot of teams that are willing to trade players 504 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 9: at this time, so go build. 505 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 2: Okay, thanks Judy. 506 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 3: I think Judy's finally satisfied with what's in the receiving course, 507 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 3: so she slipped to the other side of the ball. 508 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 2: Let's get a defensive asset. 509 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 11: Yeah. 510 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 3: I do want to remind you, Judy that the main 511 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 3: reason Brandon Bean went out and got Rasoul Douglas last 512 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 3: year was because they lost for Davius White in Week 513 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 3: four for the season. They lost a starting corner. They 514 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 3: needed to replace him because they didn't feel comfortable and 515 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 3: they didn't starting the depth players on their roster week 516 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 3: after week after week. They had Dane Jackson, they had 517 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 3: Kyier Elim but they probably didn't deem them week over 518 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,639 Speaker 3: week starters for the long term. 519 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 2: They stuck with it for a couple of weeks and 520 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 2: they didn't make trade for They took a look at it, 521 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:23,919 Speaker 2: they let them try, they let the guys in the 522 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 2: building try to do it, and they just made the 523 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 2: trade later. 524 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 3: I mean, you don't right now, knock on wood, you 525 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:35,159 Speaker 3: don't have a hole that was as cavernous as that 526 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 3: one was last year. That prompted Brandon Bean to act. 527 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 3: So I guess if an opportunity comes your way and 528 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 3: you can make your team better, well, then yes, you 529 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 3: do that. 530 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 2: I don't know that. 531 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 3: Brandon Bean's gonna be hunting something down to add a 532 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 3: defensive asset, because quite frankly, the defense looks pretty damn 533 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 3: good right now. I mean, ten points allowed each of 534 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 3: the last two weeks. They're slowly moving up the charts 535 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 3: in terms of total defense points allowed. Run defense has 536 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 3: been lights out the last two weeks. I mean lights out, yeah, 537 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 3: I mean great to you yesterday you talk about Keon 538 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 3: Coleman growing up right before our eyes. Greg Russou is 539 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 3: turning into a top flight, dominant defense event. And look, 540 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 3: he had an advantageous matchup yesterday. He's going against a 541 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 3: kid from FCS college, rookie second career start. But I'm 542 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 3: just gonna say this, Matthew Judon playing at home in 543 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 3: Atlanta against Jerrell in his first career start on the road, 544 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 3: working silent count, the whole game did not look as 545 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 3: good as Greg Russou did yesterday in Seattle in a 546 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 3: home environment for Juell. 547 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 2: I'll say this. I'm gonna go back and watch it again, 548 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 2: like a lot of Bills fans do. The first series, 549 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,959 Speaker 2: when so bats down the first two passes, that are 550 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 2: two of the first three I think or whatever. He 551 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 2: bats those two passes down, He's in Gino's lap like 552 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 2: right now. From that point on, the Seahawks said, wait, wait, wait, wait, 553 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 2: wait here. We are not leaving that guy alone for 554 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 2: the rest of the game. We're getting something. So as 555 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 2: soon as they decide to do that, somebody on the 556 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 2: offense has to chip or help or double team Greg 557 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 2: Russo for the rest of the game. And right then 558 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 2: and there they're crippled. One of their guys is not 559 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 2: getting out into the route. One of their offensive lineman 560 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 2: can't help anybody else. Somebody's got to be standing there 561 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 2: to keep Greg Russo off the off the head of 562 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 2: their quarterback. That right there after the first series was 563 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 2: a game changer, and they had to all right, we 564 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 2: got to do that, So now we can't do some 565 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 2: of this other stuff, but we got to do that, right, 566 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 2: So that's what it was. Can't can't change the strength 567 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 2: of your formation. I mean right there in the first 568 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 2: right out of the gate, Rousseau changes the entire complexion 569 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 2: of the offensive philosophy. So, yeah, there are there are 570 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 2: things about this team that you really, you really really 571 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 2: are excited about as a Bills fan. Vaughn comes back 572 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 2: this week. Terrell Bernard, I would think has a chance. 573 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 2: You know, in a couple of weeks, you're gonna get 574 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 2: Milano's windows gonna open. I don't know what they're starting 575 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 2: to have comp we heard it. It's on the horizon. Yeah, conversation. 576 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 2: So right, So all of that gives you some you 577 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 2: may not need to add pieces. 578 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 3: You're getting Von back this week, You're getting Milano back 579 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 3: probably sometime the last month of the season. May not 580 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 3: need to trade for a defensive asset. Yeah, you getting 581 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 3: an All Pro and a Hall of Famer pack. That's true, 582 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 3: and that's a good point. Like Judy calls up and 583 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 3: says this about trade, or you're getting von Miller back 584 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 3: and he was averaging a sack at game when he left. 585 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see how he looks. Nobody's seen 586 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 2: him for a month. 587 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 3: So we'll see break time for us more of your 588 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 3: phone calls when we come back here on one.

Is the 606 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 3: first time going over one hundred. 607 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 2: He's averaging six and a half yards of touch.

Mafey gets all 617 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 3: up in the face at Kirk Cousins, strips the ball 618 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 3: the other guy, Hall scoops it up and goes fifty 619 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 3: eight yards on a fumble recovery for a touchdown, and 620 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 3: it turned the game around. Against the Falcons last week, 621 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 3: you did not hear hot nor hair of them, except 622 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 3: when Derek Hall was getting yelled at by his teammate 623 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 3: Jaron Reid after he committed the roughing the passer penalty. 624 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a bad look for the Seahawks in 625 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 2: that moment. 626 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 3: He got Dion Dawkins breaking them up and saying, hey, guys, 627 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 3: chill your teammates, what are you doing? 628 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 2: Well?

And whether 650 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 2: you like the way he's saying it or not, you 651 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 2: got to know that's you, man. So there you go. 652 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 2: It was a bad look for a minute there, and 653 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 2: you know the little Auburn Alabama action going on there. 654 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 13: Yeah. 655 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 2: See, now there's this is the two of them. This 656 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 2: is the two of them talking later after they cool 657 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 2: down and you know Hall is still you can tell 658 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 2: Hall is still ticked at him. But you know, that's 659 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:47,760 Speaker 2: that's part of football. I've seen it happen before, guys. 660 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 2: You I mean, you want to it's a cage match 661 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 2: for about thirty seconds before some you know, they they 662 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 2: tear you apart and then you come back and you're 663 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 2: you're talking about it. You're a little more rational, right, 664 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 2: that's you know, that's one of this part of the 665 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 2: beauty of the game for fans when you see big, strong, 666 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 2: athletic elite athletes who are genetically set apart. They're huge, 667 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 2: and they lose it with one another, and then they 668 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 2: come back together and say that's my bad.

I 680 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 15: mean that was That's a Pro Bowl corner, a guy 681 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 15: who's equal in size and woolen, and he was destroying 682 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 15: him yesterday in the run game. Off the line of scrimmage. 683 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 15: He just goes back to the other side and lost them. 684 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 15: That's like a he's a forty two inch vert. So 685 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 15: it wasn't he was just doing it against a jag. 686 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 15: He was doing that against a dude in the league. 687 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 4: Right. 688 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 3: And also I will say this, it was very clear 689 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 3: early in the game that Joe Brady was going right 690 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 3: after Josh Job the other corner whenever he was matched 691 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,520 Speaker 3: up with Coleman, because Job was. 692 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:28,800 Speaker 2: A practice squad elevation. 693 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 3: I mean, yes, he's an Alabama kid, played at a 694 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 3: big program, but clearly has some deficiencies in his game. 695 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 3: And whenever he was whoever he was matched up on, 696 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 3: Josh was going after him. So Job was a problem, uh, 697 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 3: and a deficiency and a liability on defense for them 698 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 3: on the back end. And you know, Witherspoon goes in 699 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,439 Speaker 3: the slot and plays inside and they just don't have 700 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 3: that third corner of quality right now doing part to 701 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 3: injury right right. 702 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 2: So yeah, I thought the thing that got me about 703 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:07,360 Speaker 2: King game yesterday was how confident and the swagger he had. 704 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:09,720 Speaker 2: There were a couple of things he saw on social 705 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 2: he there was a screen passed the other way. He 706 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 2: was the boundary X. They run a screen the other 707 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 2: way and he comes off and hits the corner and 708 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,240 Speaker 2: just knocks the guy pancake pancaked him and just walked 709 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 2: beside him and looked at him as he walked. Just 710 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 2: a total bully move and you know the catch over 711 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 2: the top in the end zone, of course. 712 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 3: And then the guy he blocked all the way to 713 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 3: the bench. 714 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:35,319 Speaker 2: And dude all the way to the bench. That that 715 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 2: will That was like right out of the blindside move. 716 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,399 Speaker 2: That was the play of the game in film room 717 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:41,359 Speaker 2: today for those guys they're looking at us, say they'll 718 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,320 Speaker 2: they'll run that play tender. And he got a penalty. 719 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 2: They were off setting. 720 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 3: Got a penalty for it, which I didn't know that 721 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 3: he should have. I think the refs were just doing 722 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 3: an even out type deal. Like he rides him all 723 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 3: the way out of bounds and gages in the block. 724 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 3: It's a legal block all the way. He just put 725 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 3: him on roller skates. 726 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, you gotta let go and try and 727 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,280 Speaker 2: get away from guy after you go out and bounds 728 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 2: and it was like twenty five feet he plucked it. 729 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,439 Speaker 2: He did go a little far, he went too far, 730 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 2: but he put the guy on there and that you 731 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 2: know then in the end an NFL par lance, Yeah, 732 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 2: all right, now you gotta get up and fight if 733 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 2: you get disrespected like that.

I don't know what I'm 769 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 16: gonna have to complain about anymore, because it looks like 770 00:40:58,560 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 16: he's there. 771 00:40:59,760 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 10: Uh. 772 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,760 Speaker 16: The play action fake is working looking a lot better, 773 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 16: and that offense is moving because of it. So I'm 774 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 16: looking forward to hearing Dan Orlovsky this week to see 775 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 16: if he picked up on it. And I'll just hang 776 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 16: up and see what you guys think of it. 777 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks jaring me talking with Orlovsky about that for 778 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 3: over a year. Yeah, and he was talking about that 779 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 3: last year and we finally saw it yesterday to a 780 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 3: greater degree. I think it had been sprinkled in here 781 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:32,320 Speaker 3: and there throughout the season in game plans. But first 782 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 3: down under center play action worked like a charm yesterday, 783 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 3: and Joe Brady used it extensively and it worked very well. 784 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 2: Richard from Newfenk calls in, just so we can rub 785 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 2: Brownie on the tummy, because Brownie's been pounding that drum forever. Well, 786 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 2: Dan Orloski was doing it first. I second, and he's 787 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 2: like all about that under center stuff too, just like 788 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 2: Richard from it worked. Yes, it did to a t 789 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 2: It is the way you planned it. You were all over. 790 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 2: I have no rebuttal for that. You are right. I 791 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 2: was happy to see it. You told me so. 792 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 3: Well, no, Dan, you told me so because there he 793 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,799 Speaker 3: knows what he's looking at. I just I just said, 794 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 3: put my hand up, and it said. I second that, yes. 795 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:19,759 Speaker 2: And there it was, and there was. It was for 796 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 2: everybody to see. They also we said this earlier in 797 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:26,480 Speaker 2: the show. They played ten snaps of six man offensive 798 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 2: six offensive. Yawn, they listen, they ran that ball right 799 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 2: at Seattle and they had no answer for it. Cook 800 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:40,799 Speaker 2: seventeen not twenty five, not thirty carries. Seventeen carries for 801 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 2: one hundred and seven yards or one hundred and seventeen yards, 802 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 2: I mean one hundred eleven yards. Seventeen carries for one 803 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:54,320 Speaker 2: hundred and eleven yards. I mean they had no answer. 804 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting because I spoke to my wife after 805 00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:59,520 Speaker 3: I got home this morning. I talked to her, and 806 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 3: we're familiar with James Cook because he's, you know, former 807 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:05,400 Speaker 3: Georgia player, so we've watched. 808 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 2: Him since his college days. 809 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 3: And she says, the thing that amazes me about him 810 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,359 Speaker 3: is you think he's down and he stopped, and then 811 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 3: he gets two or three more yards. 812 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 2: She goes, I don't know how he does it. He's slippery. 813 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 3: I mean, even when they feel like they've got him, 814 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 3: they don't have him, you know what I mean. Like 815 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:24,719 Speaker 3: he's at the front end of the pile. Even when 816 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 3: there's a pile, he's at the front end up field somehow. 817 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, the runs he made a lot of the runs 818 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 2: he made yesterday. He has the ability to change direction 819 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 2: and just be tough to get a clean hit on. 820 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 3: I've said it plenty of times, Steve, he's the most 821 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:46,359 Speaker 3: dynamic athlete on the offense. Now, Coleman's probably right there 822 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,120 Speaker 3: with him, but he is so dynamic and he knows 823 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 3: he can beat guys to the pilon. How many times 824 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 3: already this season have we seen him bounce it outside 825 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 3: down by the goal line because he knows he can 826 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,240 Speaker 3: outrun that safety to the to the pilot that's. 827 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 2: Right, and he come. He pops it up inside and 828 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,880 Speaker 2: then bounces in it. And once they freeze their feet 829 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 2: to bear up to tackle him and he bounces it, 830 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,919 Speaker 2: they can't get They can't explode to the sideline fast 831 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,840 Speaker 2: enough to catch up to him. He's really effective runner. 832 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:15,239 Speaker 2: His you know him. I'll say this, He and Shakir 833 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 2: have the one thing that goes largely unnoticed and untalked 834 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 2: about when you get guys with the ball in their hands, 835 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 2: it's balance. They're hard to knock off their feet. They 836 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 2: have great contact balance, and they have the ability to 837 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 2: change direction while keeping their balance and never get out 838 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 2: of control. And that there they can they can explode 839 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:41,799 Speaker 2: in ways other athletes can't. Their balance is is phenomenal 840 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 2: and I think that's one of the things that you know, 841 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 2: gives them the ability to you know, make some of 842 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:48,759 Speaker 2: the moves and be so good with the ball in 843 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:53,839 Speaker 2: their hands in space. So that's yeah. Cook had a 844 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 2: fantastic game. You know everybody was and we get it. 845 00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 2: I mean we're a little we're all prisoners of the moment. 846 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,040 Speaker 2: And Ray Davis continues to be a really good player 847 00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:06,280 Speaker 2: for this club. He had six carries yesterday. He averaged 848 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 2: four point eight at carry. And but you know, Cook, 849 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,239 Speaker 2: remind you why he goes in first. 850 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 3: Yep, and he's a FedEx Air and Ground Player of 851 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,280 Speaker 3: the Week nominee. It's probably gonna go up against Jamiir Gibbs, 852 00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,360 Speaker 3: who also had one hundred and thirty three scrimmage yards 853 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:26,399 Speaker 3: for the Lions yesterday for his performance in Seattle.

And I think the 905 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 5: thing that we were so impressed by was just, you know, Steve, 906 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,440 Speaker 5: you talk about like nobody wants to face these guys, 907 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 5: but I don't know that I've ever been like because 908 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 5: they play with kind of some nasty but they I 909 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:41,800 Speaker 5: mean they were popping dudes. Joe and Resen just leveled 910 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 5: a guy on a special teams play. I mean James 911 00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 5: Cook lowered the shoulder and popped the guy's helmet off. 912 00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,400 Speaker 5: And I think in addition to just like you know, 913 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,160 Speaker 5: everyone drawing it up and they're making these great catches. 914 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 5: You know, Keyon went up for that one hander and 915 00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:58,399 Speaker 5: kind of patted the dude on the head like nice try, bud. 916 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:02,200 Speaker 5: But you know, it was just tremendous to watch and 917 00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 5: the you know, the crowd was in a frost when 918 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,720 Speaker 5: we get a nice path, but I mean people lost 919 00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,080 Speaker 5: their minds in our section, you know, when they were 920 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,759 Speaker 5: just hammering them. So it was just tremendous to watch. 921 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,279 Speaker 5: And you know, I feel bad for anybody that has 922 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:17,240 Speaker 5: to face us right now because you know we're scoring points, 923 00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:19,040 Speaker 5: but you know we're also going to make you think 924 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 5: twice before you try and try and tackle us, which 925 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 5: is new. I feel like for. 926 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:26,279 Speaker 2: Us playing with an edge, no question about it. There 927 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:29,960 Speaker 2: was a point and I tell you this, the block 928 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:34,000 Speaker 2: by Keon putting that guy into the bench. Don't think 929 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 2: his teammates don't. 930 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:39,839 Speaker 3: It's not the first time we've seen this. Think about 931 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,760 Speaker 3: how the Jets game started. Division game. Team you don't 932 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 3: like you got Ray Davis pounding defensive backs into submission. 933 00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:49,840 Speaker 3: Kincaid catches the ball down the left sideline, lowers the 934 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,840 Speaker 3: shoulder on the corner, and buries him along the sideline. 935 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,600 Speaker 3: It gets the bench jumping makes a difference. 936 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 2: It's and it means something when it comes from somebody 937 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,440 Speaker 2: other than the offensive line, defensive line, all these guys 938 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,200 Speaker 2: that play these physical positions. When it comes from offensive guys, 939 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 2: particularly skilled guys like running backs and wide outs, your 940 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 2: team does take on a little bit of more of 941 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 2: a gritty nature because when those guys are doing it, 942 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 2: everybody else is taken for granted. Man, yeah, everybody else is. 943 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,920 Speaker 2: Everybody's gonna do it. If they got their wideouts blocking 944 00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:23,080 Speaker 2: guys into the bench area, you know, everybody else is 945 00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 2: on board with that. And that's kind of the way 946 00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 2: it works in reality. When you get guys at those 947 00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 2: positions who aren't really that that it's not that kind 948 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 2: of physical kind of position, you know, and you get 949 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:40,600 Speaker 2: them playing with some grit and some swagger and you know, 950 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 2: arrogance whatever you want to call it, where they're playing 951 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 2: like big like they're big brother in guys, right, I 952 00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:50,479 Speaker 2: mean they're they're you know, putting their hand in their face. 953 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 2: That kind of that that permeates the roster because if 954 00:50:56,280 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 2: those guys out there are doing it, you know, everybody 955 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:01,440 Speaker 2: and he else he's gonna say, wow, I gotta I 956 00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:04,239 Speaker 2: gotta jump in on that. That's it is. It makes 957 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:05,320 Speaker 2: a big, big difference. 958 00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:09,000 Speaker 3: Got another trade in the league that just happened. According 959 00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 3: to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Chiefs have now acquired linebacker 960 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:18,240 Speaker 3: Josh Ucha from the Patriots. According to sources, uh Oocha 961 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,680 Speaker 3: has kind of been on the trade block for about 962 00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 3: a year now. He was actually a healthy and active 963 00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:27,600 Speaker 3: yesterday between the Jets and the Patriots. Did not play, 964 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:30,319 Speaker 3: and there was high speculation that a trade was in 965 00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 3: the works, and in fact is He's going from New 966 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 3: England to Kansas City pass Rusher by trade and maybe 967 00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:38,799 Speaker 3: the Chiefs feel they need to add a little bit 968 00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:40,439 Speaker 3: more to the defensive side of the ball. 969 00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:42,080 Speaker 2: Maybe, so he's getting suspended. 970 00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:47,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, so this is uh, well, that's another possibility, Okay. 971 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:48,760 Speaker 2: Steve tell Us how you feel. 972 00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 3: So that is happening.

And Eric, look, the 987 00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:23,839 Speaker 3: Seahawks gave him a couple of extra added opportunities due 988 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,040 Speaker 3: to some colossal miscues. 989 00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 2: But you can't blame the Bills for that. 990 00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 3: They took advantage of him and made the game a 991 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:34,040 Speaker 3: lot more lopsided than maybe we thought it should have been. 992 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,400 Speaker 13: Yeah, there was some goofy plays in that one, you 993 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:42,800 Speaker 13: had the snap over Gino Smith's head. They stepped on 994 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,200 Speaker 13: him on the goal line, which cost them any points 995 00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:50,160 Speaker 13: on that series. And you know they they made enough mistakes. 996 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,200 Speaker 13: But you know, the Bills didn't play a completely clean game, 997 00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:54,879 Speaker 13: especially when you look at the turnover or sorry, when 998 00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:56,319 Speaker 13: you look at you know, the Bills did have the 999 00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:59,479 Speaker 13: one turnover with the Josh Allen interception, but with all 1000 00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:04,240 Speaker 13: of the these special teams decisions which hurts some field position. 1001 00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 13: I mean, it wasn't like the Bills didn't you know, 1002 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:09,080 Speaker 13: shoot themselves in the foot at times as well. But 1003 00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 13: this is a dominating Bills win in a tough place 1004 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 13: to play, you know, these NFC teams where you don't 1005 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:17,600 Speaker 13: play him that often. It just seems like this Bills 1006 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:21,239 Speaker 13: team and Josh Allen in particular, dominates those opponents. I 1007 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 13: assume that means that the Bills and you know, their 1008 00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:29,279 Speaker 13: unique quarterback play and everything they do becomes tougher for 1009 00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:31,839 Speaker 13: teams that only get to face them generally one every 1010 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 13: four years than the reverse side of things, and the 1011 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:36,560 Speaker 13: Bills preparing for these NFC teams. 1012 00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:39,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, why I wasn't really clean for Buffalo. You could 1013 00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 2: sense a difference in the way they played at least offensively, right. 1014 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:44,440 Speaker 2: I mean, they come out and they throw it on 1015 00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:48,640 Speaker 2: first down under center quite a bit. And the emergence 1016 00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 2: of Keon coleman As I don't know, finger clows an 1017 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:55,080 Speaker 2: attitude guy, right, he's kind of a grit guy. All 1018 00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 2: of a sudden, he's setting a bully, kind of matt 1019 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:03,160 Speaker 2: mindset to the offense that we haven't seen before. I mean, 1020 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 2: you can you can tell he's a much more confident 1021 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:08,359 Speaker 2: young player than he was just two weeks ago. 1022 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 13: I'm not sure if something was said to him in 1023 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:14,839 Speaker 13: the pregame or if he read something throughout the week. 1024 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:18,359 Speaker 13: Whatever it is, they need to find that and show 1025 00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:20,879 Speaker 13: him to it, or find someone on the other team 1026 00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:23,360 Speaker 13: to get him all ticked off, because that is an 1027 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:25,279 Speaker 13: attitude we haven't seen out of him this year. 1028 00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:25,520 Speaker 7: Now. 1029 00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:27,399 Speaker 13: Some of that may just be it's his eighth game 1030 00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:29,879 Speaker 13: as a pro and he's growing into he's who he's 1031 00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:31,799 Speaker 13: going to be as a player. But you know, you 1032 00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 13: make a statement with some of those blocks he made 1033 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 13: out there, I mean much less the production he had 1034 00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 13: through the air, catching a touchdown against a really good 1035 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,120 Speaker 13: corner in Greek wooling and you know, you make a 1036 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 13: number of other plays, but those blocks he made out there. 1037 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:49,080 Speaker 13: I mean, Dion Dawkins said he was going to keep 1038 00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:53,040 Speaker 13: his cleats and have Keon Coleman autograph him. I never 1039 00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:57,560 Speaker 13: he didn't. Deon credits me with some of his stuff 1040 00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:00,400 Speaker 13: in his game now or maybe some of his locker stuff. 1041 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:02,880 Speaker 13: But I never did that to one of our receivers. 1042 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 13: Maybe maybe I would have done it for maybe a 1043 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:07,279 Speaker 13: Robert Woods or someone that's probably who I played with 1044 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 13: that had the most attitude on the outside. But I 1045 00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:12,239 Speaker 13: loved what I saw from Key on these last couple 1046 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 13: of weeks. It just seems to be growing into the 1047 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 13: player that we all hoped he would become this season. 1048 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:19,759 Speaker 13: And you know, it's gonna take some time, generally as 1049 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:22,239 Speaker 13: a rookie, and it did. And now we've seen him 1050 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:24,880 Speaker 13: play excellent these last couple of weeks. And whether you 1051 00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:27,879 Speaker 13: can say that's maybe Amari Cooper taking some attention away 1052 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:30,160 Speaker 13: from him, maybe he's learned a little bit from him, 1053 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 13: or he's just growing into his game. I'm loving what 1054 00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:34,839 Speaker 13: I'm seeing from him out there. 1055 00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:38,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, And just to expand on Steve's point, you know, 1056 00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:42,000 Speaker 3: the Bills go into this game as the number one 1057 00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 3: run rate team in the league on first and ten 1058 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,399 Speaker 3: sixty five percent of the time running on first and ten, 1059 00:56:49,040 --> 00:56:52,439 Speaker 3: and in the first half on first and ten, Joe 1060 00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:57,400 Speaker 3: Brady calls five runs, nine passes, some of those of 1061 00:56:57,400 --> 00:57:01,880 Speaker 3: the play action variety. Just maybe speak to Joe Brady 1062 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 3: using some tendency breakers to really get this offense in 1063 00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:05,840 Speaker 3: gear early. 1064 00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:09,960 Speaker 13: Yeah, and I'll give you credit, Chris for your interview 1065 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:13,200 Speaker 13: with Bobby Babbage on the pregame for the radio yesterday 1066 00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 13: and him talking about this becomes part of the season 1067 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 13: where when you have those tendencies that have mounted up. Okay, now, 1068 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:21,560 Speaker 13: can we go back and look at those and use 1069 00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 13: them against other teams? The Bill start this game off 1070 00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:27,000 Speaker 13: on the play for those watching along with us right 1071 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:30,440 Speaker 13: now with a shot play to Dawson Knox across the field. 1072 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:34,680 Speaker 13: We've seen them be so conservative throughout this season early 1073 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 13: in games, generally running the football on first down. Okay, 1074 00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:40,480 Speaker 13: let's try and move the sticks. Let's set up a 1075 00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:43,760 Speaker 13: third and manageable third and short. They came out firing 1076 00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:46,480 Speaker 13: in this game, especially on first down. So whether that 1077 00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 13: was them noticing their tendencies and then what I will 1078 00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 13: say though, Is McDermott talked about it after the game, 1079 00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:56,720 Speaker 13: and other players kept reiterating it. We wanted to start faster. 1080 00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:58,919 Speaker 13: We wanted to start faster. We needed to start faster 1081 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 13: on the defense sid of the ball. We needed to 1082 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:02,360 Speaker 13: put up points early. We can't get off to a 1083 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 13: slow start. Well, when all the emphasis is on that, 1084 00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:07,440 Speaker 13: I believe Joe Brady said, Okay, well we want to 1085 00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 13: put up points early. I'm going to dial up a 1086 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:12,680 Speaker 13: few more shots early in this one. And then defensively, 1087 00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:15,120 Speaker 13: they came out with their hair on fire. They you know, 1088 00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 13: Greg Grisso batts two out of the first three balls 1089 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 13: of the game. Some of that's fortunate timing, but you 1090 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 13: think of some of the plays that the corners made 1091 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:24,160 Speaker 13: on the outside. When Kenth Walker tried to bounce it, 1092 00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:28,040 Speaker 13: Tarren Johnson makes an awesome play in space. This defense 1093 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:30,160 Speaker 13: came out strong. They forced two to three and outs 1094 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 13: the first two series of the game. And that was 1095 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:34,400 Speaker 13: one of my keys to the game this week was 1096 00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:37,480 Speaker 13: you go out to Seattle, if you're able to start fast, 1097 00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:39,440 Speaker 13: you can take that crowd out of the game. This 1098 00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:42,480 Speaker 13: is not the crowd that was behind the Super Bowl 1099 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:44,960 Speaker 13: legion of boom teams they haven't had the same success. 1100 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 13: This is not the same roster. This is a team 1101 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 13: that you know, prior to their last win in Atlanta 1102 00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:51,480 Speaker 13: had lost three in a row, and you know the 1103 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:53,520 Speaker 13: fan base is reeling a little bit, and so they 1104 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 13: came out, started fast, and the crowd while it remained 1105 00:58:57,600 --> 00:59:01,320 Speaker 13: a factor. They have the decibels listed in the stadium. 1106 00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:03,120 Speaker 13: I don't know that they got back up to that 1107 00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:05,920 Speaker 13: initial one ZHO six or whatever they listed for the 1108 00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:07,440 Speaker 13: first n half of the game for the Bills. For 1109 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:08,280 Speaker 13: the remainder of it. 1110 00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:11,600 Speaker 2: Now, let's talk about the early start, particularly defensively. The 1111 00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:13,480 Speaker 2: Seahawks get the ball right out of the gate, and 1112 00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 2: two out of the first three plays, Greg Russeau is 1113 00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:20,040 Speaker 2: right in Gino's face, right in his grill. From that 1114 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:25,840 Speaker 2: point one, the Seahawks, the Seahorks were forced to put 1115 00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:28,040 Speaker 2: somebody over there to help the right tag. We knew 1116 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:30,440 Speaker 2: the right tackle was inexperienced. It was his second start, 1117 00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:34,160 Speaker 2: and you thought maybe Rousseau would have a day. But man, 1118 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:36,000 Speaker 2: oh man, right out of the gate, they said, listen, 1119 00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:38,600 Speaker 2: we're not doing it. They started chipping, they started double teaming, 1120 00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:44,480 Speaker 2: They allocated assets to Greg Russau, for the rest of 1121 00:59:44,520 --> 00:59:49,000 Speaker 2: the game, and that hamstrung their ability to use those 1122 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,120 Speaker 2: guys in a different way for the rest of the game. 1123 00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:54,000 Speaker 2: And that started from his first series batting a couple 1124 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:55,640 Speaker 2: of passes right back in Gino's face. 1125 00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:59,240 Speaker 13: Yeah, to your points they've I'll also give the Bills 1126 00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:01,760 Speaker 13: credit for And whether this is coaching or the players 1127 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:05,320 Speaker 13: just making adjustments, Seattle tried to come out and do 1128 01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 13: the same things to the Bills that have given them fits. 1129 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:09,560 Speaker 13: The first play of the game, they run a play 1130 01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:12,240 Speaker 13: action rollout. How many times have you seen the teams 1131 01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:14,160 Speaker 13: early in the game they run that play action roll out. 1132 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,600 Speaker 13: The defensive end does exactly what he's coaching doing, that's 1133 01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:18,760 Speaker 13: to play the run and then adjust to the pass 1134 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:22,080 Speaker 13: on early downs. Well, Greg Russo goes straight up the field. 1135 01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:24,640 Speaker 13: So whether that was coaching and understanding Okay, this is 1136 01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 13: how teams are attacking us early in games, or that's 1137 01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 13: simply him making a play, give him credit there. The 1138 01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:32,800 Speaker 13: second play, they get the running back in space in 1139 01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:35,520 Speaker 13: the flat. Bills coming into this game have given up 1140 01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:38,360 Speaker 13: the most receiving yards the running backs in the NFL. Well, 1141 01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 13: Taron Johnson makes a nice play in the flat to 1142 01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:43,840 Speaker 13: force the third and long, and then instead of playing 1143 01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 13: vanilla defense on third down, they bring a pressure which 1144 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:49,520 Speaker 13: allows Greg Russo to be one on one and he 1145 01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:51,440 Speaker 13: gets his hand up and bats the ball down. And 1146 01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:54,320 Speaker 13: so to me, that's growth from the defense and not 1147 01:00:54,480 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 13: simply letting the same screens. Play action rollouts, dink and 1148 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:03,439 Speaker 13: dunk pass is an occasional run plays. You don't let 1149 01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 13: that control the game early on, like we even saw 1150 01:01:07,520 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 13: a week prior against Tennessee. So I give the defense 1151 01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:13,640 Speaker 13: a lot of credit in not waiting until the second 1152 01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:16,040 Speaker 13: half or waiting until a team put up ten points 1153 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:19,120 Speaker 13: before they say, Okay, we're going to take this stuff away. 1154 01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 13: They simply took it away from the jump understanding that, hey, 1155 01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:24,960 Speaker 13: these have been our tendencies, this is what teams have 1156 01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:27,520 Speaker 13: done to attack us, this is what worked. Okay, let's 1157 01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:29,160 Speaker 13: take it away early and then see what they can do. 1158 01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:30,360 Speaker 13: And it wasn't a whole lot. 1159 01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:35,000 Speaker 3: James Cook probably had the quietest fifteen hundred yard total 1160 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:37,880 Speaker 3: yard from scrimmage season in the league last year, got 1161 01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:40,480 Speaker 3: virtually no recognition for it. I mean, he did go 1162 01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:43,160 Speaker 3: to the Pro Bowl, but still, I mean over fifteen 1163 01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:45,360 Speaker 3: hundred yards at the end of the season, nobody said anything, 1164 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:50,280 Speaker 3: and here he is yesterday putting on a show, probably 1165 01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:53,320 Speaker 3: his best game this season by far, and credit to 1166 01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 3: the offensive line also, Eric, I don't know if you 1167 01:01:56,280 --> 01:01:59,880 Speaker 3: heard Dion Dawkins locker room interview after the game. He 1168 01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 3: said in the huddle, Bill's offensive lineman David Edwards was 1169 01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 3: telling them on the run play where the hole was 1170 01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 3: going to open up against his defense based on film study, 1171 01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:14,400 Speaker 3: and was kind of given James Cook an advanced scouting 1172 01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:16,680 Speaker 3: report on how the play was going to open up. 1173 01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 3: I have never heard that before. How often does this happen? 1174 01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:24,320 Speaker 13: Probably not very often, except for the plays that are 1175 01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:27,160 Speaker 13: dictated to go in a specific gap. But most of 1176 01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:31,160 Speaker 13: the running schemes nowadays are either wide zone, mid zone, 1177 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:34,200 Speaker 13: inside zone where you can cut that back. Even your 1178 01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:37,240 Speaker 13: gap schemes where you have your duos where you don't 1179 01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:39,800 Speaker 13: have a pooler, or your power schemes, which are also 1180 01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:43,880 Speaker 13: gap schemes. You're generally reading it inside out and then 1181 01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:46,960 Speaker 13: all the way backside because if everyone's covered, the running 1182 01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:48,640 Speaker 13: back should be able to take it out the back door, 1183 01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:51,800 Speaker 13: and so there's generally a lot of room to read it. 1184 01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:55,280 Speaker 13: That's very interesting that he said that David Edwards was 1185 01:02:55,560 --> 01:02:57,160 Speaker 13: that in tune with it, and I like it, And 1186 01:02:57,200 --> 01:03:00,360 Speaker 13: some of that's based upon just understanding, Okay, we're running 1187 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 13: mid zone right at me. I know that this guy's 1188 01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 13: going to expand I can't reach him. The ball's got 1189 01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:07,920 Speaker 13: to go inside me. It's probably going back to that 1190 01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:11,240 Speaker 13: double team on the backside, whether that's Spencer Brown and 1191 01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:14,040 Speaker 13: Cires Horns or Spencer Brown at a tight end. And 1192 01:03:14,480 --> 01:03:17,439 Speaker 13: I'd like to know if we went back and maybe 1193 01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:19,720 Speaker 13: Jay Harrison his staff back there can help us out. 1194 01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:24,120 Speaker 13: How many yards would Cook have had penalties on holding 1195 01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:26,320 Speaker 13: plays on his runs. It had to have been at 1196 01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:29,200 Speaker 13: least maybe another twenty yards. Now that could have impacted 1197 01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:31,400 Speaker 13: how many yards they still had to go on a 1198 01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:34,120 Speaker 13: drive because he was often picking him back up himself. 1199 01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:37,400 Speaker 13: But I mean, these holding calls in this game really 1200 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,440 Speaker 13: took the Bills out of the rhythm on offense, or 1201 01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:43,600 Speaker 13: they could have just kept running these chunk runs followed 1202 01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:45,880 Speaker 13: by these explosive play action passes. 1203 01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, the first drive of the game, the ninety yard drive, 1204 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 2: it was actually one hundred and ten yard drive because 1205 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:54,360 Speaker 2: of the penalties right out of the gate, So they 1206 01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:57,080 Speaker 2: had that to deal with and they did a masterful 1207 01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 2: job of it. That's something I don't know that early 1208 01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:01,000 Speaker 2: in the sea and this team would have been able 1209 01:04:01,040 --> 01:04:04,640 Speaker 2: to overcome that quickly. But my question for yourick and 1210 01:04:04,680 --> 01:04:08,680 Speaker 2: what's your thoughts on no question, this was a really 1211 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:12,680 Speaker 2: first game of the year that they went wired wire, 1212 01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:15,120 Speaker 2: played good throughout on both sides of the ball. It 1213 01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 2: kind of put together a full effort. It still feels 1214 01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:20,240 Speaker 2: like there's more in the tank. Even though they played 1215 01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:23,720 Speaker 2: so well offensively, their numbers were great. What's the next 1216 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:26,680 Speaker 2: step now? I mean, certainly Amari Cooper didn't have you know, 1217 01:04:26,720 --> 01:04:28,680 Speaker 2: he was asked he had like one catch in the day. 1218 01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:32,920 Speaker 2: Keon did his thing, Shaki's doing his thing, Kincaid knocks, 1219 01:04:33,200 --> 01:04:36,280 Speaker 2: you know, everybody's getting a chance to contribute some But 1220 01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:38,360 Speaker 2: what's the next step and what can we look for 1221 01:04:38,360 --> 01:04:40,880 Speaker 2: this offense? You know, what's the next step for the 1222 01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:43,440 Speaker 2: identity of this offense to emerge? 1223 01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 13: Yeah, I think that's a great question. I think the 1224 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:49,640 Speaker 13: next step is just doing it more consistently. And we 1225 01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:54,800 Speaker 13: saw against Tennessee, a slow start, against Houston, a slow 1226 01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:57,720 Speaker 13: start against Baltimore. Well, against the Jets, they had a 1227 01:04:57,760 --> 01:04:59,680 Speaker 13: hot start and they had a hot start yesterday, scoring 1228 01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 13: on the o possession and realistically, throughout a seventeen game 1229 01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 13: regular season, you're not going to score on the first 1230 01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:07,720 Speaker 13: drive of every game. But the three and outs early 1231 01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:09,680 Speaker 13: in the game, how can we eliminate those on a 1232 01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:12,160 Speaker 13: week to week basis? And I don't know, you know, 1233 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:14,800 Speaker 13: you'd love to get more production from Amari Cooper yesterday, 1234 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:17,400 Speaker 13: but when you have Keon and Shakir had the days 1235 01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:20,800 Speaker 13: that they have, the ball can only go around. So 1236 01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:23,160 Speaker 13: so far Josh throws for over two hundred and eighty yards. 1237 01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:27,280 Speaker 13: We're never gonna complain about that production. So whether it's 1238 01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:30,320 Speaker 13: key On one week or Amari one week, or Shakir 1239 01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:32,600 Speaker 13: or accommodation of two to three each and every week, 1240 01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:35,600 Speaker 13: tight end production, some production from the running backs in 1241 01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:40,000 Speaker 13: the past game, that's great, that's great. Dispersion throughout the 1242 01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:43,600 Speaker 13: run game was going yesterday. So can you remain balanced 1243 01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:47,800 Speaker 13: enough but mixing in more first down passes like we 1244 01:05:47,840 --> 01:05:50,680 Speaker 13: saw yesterday and then do it on a consistent basis 1245 01:05:50,680 --> 01:05:53,680 Speaker 13: throughout the season. And then what I'm sure Sean McDermott's 1246 01:05:53,680 --> 01:05:55,760 Speaker 13: harpening on today or the pre snat penalties, I mean, 1247 01:05:55,800 --> 01:06:00,560 Speaker 13: those drive him nuts and he he And we've talked 1248 01:06:00,560 --> 01:06:03,200 Speaker 13: about this on one bell slot before, and I'm assuming 1249 01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:05,200 Speaker 13: he coaches the same way as when I was there, 1250 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:08,600 Speaker 13: because he's the most consistent person I've ever met. After 1251 01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:12,240 Speaker 13: a win, especially a commanding win, he's going to find 1252 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:15,640 Speaker 13: stuff to be really hard on after a loss, especially 1253 01:06:15,640 --> 01:06:18,200 Speaker 13: a tough loss. He's going to find things that are 1254 01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:20,440 Speaker 13: encouraging from the game to give you confidence into the 1255 01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:23,560 Speaker 13: next week. He's assuming these guys have enough confidence heading 1256 01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:26,479 Speaker 13: to Miami next week, so he'll, I'm sure get on 1257 01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:30,600 Speaker 13: this offense, especially the offensive line. About the pre snap 1258 01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 13: penalties and a few of the holding calls, I see 1259 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 13: where they happened. You know, those are probably fifty to 1260 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:39,960 Speaker 13: fifty calls, and they called about ninety percent of them yesterday. 1261 01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:44,640 Speaker 13: It's the pre snap penalties that you know, eight games in, 1262 01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:46,400 Speaker 13: you don't expect to be such an issue. 1263 01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:47,560 Speaker 2: All right, So. 1264 01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:49,920 Speaker 3: Let's let's talk about that a little bit more. You know, 1265 01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:53,280 Speaker 3: you mentioned Miami's coming in here next week, and we 1266 01:06:53,280 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 3: were keeping tabs on it on the radio broadcast. Being 1267 01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:58,480 Speaker 3: a four o'clock game East Coast time, a lot of 1268 01:06:58,480 --> 01:07:02,160 Speaker 3: the one o'clock's happened and fell there very favorably for Buffalo, 1269 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:05,200 Speaker 3: particularly in the division. Miami loses on a last second 1270 01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:08,280 Speaker 3: field goal, the Jets lose after the Patriots go in 1271 01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 3: and score a touchdown with twenty two seconds left in regulation, 1272 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:14,120 Speaker 3: and suddenly the division race really isn't much of a 1273 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:17,360 Speaker 3: race at all. Right now, how would you look at it, 1274 01:07:17,400 --> 01:07:20,920 Speaker 3: being mindful that there are still nine games to play. 1275 01:07:20,920 --> 01:07:23,360 Speaker 3: I mean, things look good, but maybe just give us 1276 01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:25,000 Speaker 3: your assessment here at the midway point. 1277 01:07:26,440 --> 01:07:29,160 Speaker 13: Yeah, we also got some help outside the division. When 1278 01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:32,000 Speaker 13: you look around the conference with the Browns beating the Bengals, 1279 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:36,240 Speaker 13: or sorry, the Browns beat the Ravens, the Bengals lose 1280 01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:38,960 Speaker 13: to the Eagles. We caught some other help out there 1281 01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:42,760 Speaker 13: as well when you look around the conference, and so look, 1282 01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:45,560 Speaker 13: you got a commanding lead. You know, you simply got 1283 01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:47,120 Speaker 13: to take it one game at a time and take 1284 01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:50,760 Speaker 13: care of business. Obviously, you give up the losses to 1285 01:07:50,840 --> 01:07:53,600 Speaker 13: Baltimore or Houston, and you're worried about those coming back 1286 01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:56,520 Speaker 13: to haunt you when it comes to home games in 1287 01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:59,240 Speaker 13: the playoffs. But you know, right now, you're trying to 1288 01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:01,560 Speaker 13: get better each and ever week. You're trying to take 1289 01:08:01,600 --> 01:08:03,480 Speaker 13: care of business and go one and oh each week. 1290 01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:06,200 Speaker 13: And I know that's cliche, but the last thing you 1291 01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:08,000 Speaker 13: can do is say, man, we got this big lead 1292 01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:10,200 Speaker 13: in the division. We can kind of coast on out 1293 01:08:10,600 --> 01:08:13,200 Speaker 13: and then we'll see what happens in the playoffs. You know, 1294 01:08:13,200 --> 01:08:14,920 Speaker 13: they got to be licking their chops right now with 1295 01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:18,320 Speaker 13: some turmoil around the division, thinking okay, we can we 1296 01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 13: can rattle off some victories here, especially when you look 1297 01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:25,439 Speaker 13: at the four remaining division games and then hey, can 1298 01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:28,120 Speaker 13: we beat Kansas City? Can can City drop a couple? 1299 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:31,960 Speaker 13: And what's this playoff seating gonna look like? But it's 1300 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:35,760 Speaker 13: it's just amazing. And I believe Chris calls it Bill's myopia, 1301 01:08:36,280 --> 01:08:38,559 Speaker 13: but you know, because we're all consumed with the Bills. 1302 01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:41,479 Speaker 13: But you're riding high early on and everyone's praising you 1303 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:44,679 Speaker 13: and Josh Allen's MVP, and then everyone wants to say, hey, 1304 01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:47,160 Speaker 13: we told you so. Those three teams stunk. And then 1305 01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:49,360 Speaker 13: you win a few games in a row again and 1306 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:52,320 Speaker 13: now everyone's praising you again and kind of just shows 1307 01:08:52,360 --> 01:08:55,040 Speaker 13: you that you know, as a team, and it's such 1308 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 13: a long season, you're gonna have bad weeks where everyone's 1309 01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:01,040 Speaker 13: gonna talk trash on you, and you you respect the 1310 01:09:01,080 --> 01:09:03,280 Speaker 13: media in those instances. You don't do with the kid 1311 01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:06,799 Speaker 13: down in Dallas who has a familiar last name did yesterday. 1312 01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:09,479 Speaker 13: You treat everyone with respect and just understand that everyone's 1313 01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:12,160 Speaker 13: got a job and the reason that we make so 1314 01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:14,880 Speaker 13: much money playing the game of football nowadays is part 1315 01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:17,920 Speaker 13: of leading due to the TV coverage, and so you 1316 01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:20,559 Speaker 13: respect them. But just understand that when you have bad weeks, 1317 01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:23,320 Speaker 13: everyone's gonna tell you how bad you think. Eventually they'll 1318 01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:25,599 Speaker 13: likely tell you how good you are, and you got 1319 01:09:25,640 --> 01:09:26,639 Speaker 13: to stay focused throughout. 1320 01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:29,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and this as this season progresses, I mean, this 1321 01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:34,200 Speaker 2: is always and he's always in the conversation. Josh is 1322 01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:36,240 Speaker 2: just so good and so important and he's and he 1323 01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:39,519 Speaker 2: does so many things that no other quarterback does. This 1324 01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:43,280 Speaker 2: seems to be a very quiet year for his MVP talk. 1325 01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:48,840 Speaker 2: Although when your team wins and wins a lot, your 1326 01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:51,719 Speaker 2: quarterback's always going to be in that conversation. And right now, 1327 01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:54,800 Speaker 2: you know, Josh is this team keeps grinding away and 1328 01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:58,800 Speaker 2: probably what is his least spectacular year. He's gonna stay 1329 01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:00,000 Speaker 2: in that conversation, is he not? 1330 01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:04,120 Speaker 13: Yeah, he will, And you know, I think his passing 1331 01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:06,519 Speaker 13: numbers especially these last two weeks are going to help, 1332 01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:10,000 Speaker 13: you know, bolster that, and a lot of it's who 1333 01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:13,280 Speaker 13: ends up being that one seed, you know, looking at it, 1334 01:10:13,280 --> 01:10:16,639 Speaker 13: it's either Lamar or Patrick Mahomes right now. And Patrick 1335 01:10:16,640 --> 01:10:19,680 Speaker 13: Mahomes he's got more touch He's got more interceptions than 1336 01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:21,840 Speaker 13: touchdowns on the season. If that was Josh Allen, they 1337 01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:25,720 Speaker 13: would just do any they would all the A lot 1338 01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:28,280 Speaker 13: of the talking heads out there would use that to 1339 01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:33,400 Speaker 13: kind of prove their pre draft stock opinions on Josh correctly. 1340 01:10:33,560 --> 01:10:35,960 Speaker 13: But you know, he takes a lot of criticism. But 1341 01:10:36,200 --> 01:10:39,040 Speaker 13: our man's playing some really good ball right now. Got 1342 01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:41,120 Speaker 13: some new receivers, and everyone said this is going to 1343 01:10:41,160 --> 01:10:43,439 Speaker 13: be a down year, and this is the year that 1344 01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:47,599 Speaker 13: he's playing extremely efficient. And I've loved how Joe Brady 1345 01:10:47,800 --> 01:10:50,040 Speaker 13: actually had a conversation with Tom Brady about this before 1346 01:10:50,080 --> 01:10:53,519 Speaker 13: the game, about how Joe Brady's given him some different answers, 1347 01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:56,840 Speaker 13: some easier throws, letting him settle in so he doesn't 1348 01:10:56,880 --> 01:11:00,200 Speaker 13: have to take as many risks down the field, and 1349 01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:02,679 Speaker 13: because of that, he's been extremely efficient. 1350 01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:05,880 Speaker 3: Eric, thanks as always for the time.

I mean, 1471 01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:29,880 Speaker 2: I you know, we all have our tech sloops that 1472 01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:33,120 Speaker 2: kind of go berserk during the game, right, We got 1473 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:35,360 Speaker 2: all our we got o our crazy friends, we got 1474 01:17:35,360 --> 01:17:37,400 Speaker 2: our friends who are down to earth. We got our 1475 01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:40,120 Speaker 2: friends that you can't even say or speak what they 1476 01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:42,479 Speaker 2: say on you know what I mean. You got So 1477 01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:44,799 Speaker 2: it's just you get we all get the whole spectrum 1478 01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:48,840 Speaker 2: and and the bill, you know, drafting keyon when they did, 1479 01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:50,840 Speaker 2: and the trade that happened, and the people are just 1480 01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:53,200 Speaker 2: losing their minds over the missed you know, all this 1481 01:17:53,360 --> 01:17:56,360 Speaker 2: perception of what's going to happen, we get, you know, 1482 01:17:57,640 --> 01:17:59,840 Speaker 2: and then you know, the slow start. Offensively things are wrong, 1483 01:17:59,880 --> 01:18:03,920 Speaker 2: and now all of a sudden. You know, they're all 1484 01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:12,599 Speaker 2: they're all butterflies. So I get it, your lollipops. Let 1485 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:16,400 Speaker 2: me just say this, you should get into this space 1486 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:19,840 Speaker 2: and just stay there no matter what happens on the field, 1487 01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:22,880 Speaker 2: because you know, once you once you get out there 1488 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:25,120 Speaker 2: and you put it out there that the team has 1489 01:18:25,160 --> 01:18:27,559 Speaker 2: a lot of good players. They're gonna play well, but 1490 01:18:27,600 --> 01:18:29,120 Speaker 2: they don't play in a vacuum, and every once in 1491 01:18:29,160 --> 01:18:30,760 Speaker 2: a while, people are gonna make them look bad, or 1492 01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:33,800 Speaker 2: they're gonna make a mistake, or something bad is gonna happen. 1493 01:18:33,840 --> 01:18:38,720 Speaker 2: That's you know, yeah, just yeah, they do a lot 1494 01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:41,080 Speaker 2: of things really well inside this building. They really do 1495 01:18:41,280 --> 01:18:43,600 Speaker 2: not They're not perfect, but they do a lot of 1496 01:18:43,640 --> 01:18:46,560 Speaker 2: stuff really really well. And they do a lot of 1497 01:18:46,560 --> 01:18:48,840 Speaker 2: stuff a lot better than a lot of other teams 1498 01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:52,479 Speaker 2: consistently do. But that doesn't mean other teams don't make 1499 01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:59,080 Speaker 2: nobody's perfect. Yeah, So yes, that this is a space 1500 01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:01,280 Speaker 2: where Brownie and I have been. I have liked their 1501 01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:05,479 Speaker 2: roster from the off season, even before Mary Cooper was 1502 01:19:05,520 --> 01:19:10,080 Speaker 2: part of the mix. I've liked this team. You know, 1503 01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:12,000 Speaker 2: they had a lot to prove, no question about it. 1504 01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:15,760 Speaker 2: It's a long season, but think I've loved more than 1505 01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:18,479 Speaker 2: anything is the fact that from where they started, they 1506 01:19:18,479 --> 01:19:20,160 Speaker 2: were winning games, they were playing, they played a little 1507 01:19:20,160 --> 01:19:22,040 Speaker 2: better than we thought they could in the beginning. But 1508 01:19:22,080 --> 01:19:27,000 Speaker 2: they're growing. They're growing now in tangible ways. That's a 1509 01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:29,559 Speaker 2: lot of fun to watch. Where it's going to stop 1510 01:19:29,600 --> 01:19:31,400 Speaker 2: and what the ceiling is we don't know, but it's 1511 01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:34,000 Speaker 2: going to be fun to find out. And who's also 1512 01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:35,920 Speaker 2: growing the coordinators. 1513 01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:40,160 Speaker 3: You know, the common complaint has been ah or getting 1514 01:19:40,200 --> 01:19:43,479 Speaker 3: off to these slow starts. We're spoting teams leads. Offense 1515 01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:46,880 Speaker 3: gets off to a fast start again this week. That's 1516 01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:49,679 Speaker 3: two out of the last three games that that's happened 1517 01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:52,200 Speaker 3: on offense and the defense. 1518 01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:54,000 Speaker 2: Got off to a fast start yesterday. 1519 01:19:54,080 --> 01:19:57,080 Speaker 3: Let's not forget that they send the Seahawks three and 1520 01:19:57,120 --> 01:20:00,880 Speaker 3: out on their first two possessions. That makes a huge 1521 01:20:00,880 --> 01:20:05,400 Speaker 3: difference in how the game unfolds early on. So kudos 1522 01:20:05,439 --> 01:20:07,720 Speaker 3: to the coordinators also for nailing things down at the 1523 01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:11,040 Speaker 3: start of the game for their players, you know, and 1524 01:20:11,080 --> 01:20:14,080 Speaker 3: getting them off to you know, a good start, which 1525 01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:16,519 Speaker 3: only builds their confidence and makes them play better. So 1526 01:20:17,080 --> 01:20:20,360 Speaker 3: it's an all encompassing thing for sure. Let's go to 1527 01:20:20,400 --> 01:20:21,920 Speaker 3: Anna in New Jersey next. 1528 01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:23,080 Speaker 2: What's up? Anna? 1529 01:20:23,720 --> 01:20:26,640 Speaker 18: Hey, guys, big fan, born and raised up here, but 1530 01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:29,320 Speaker 18: I live in New Jersey, down in Jeff's Giants country 1531 01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:33,439 Speaker 18: right now. From my perspective down there, from what people 1532 01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:36,040 Speaker 18: tell me when they hear I'm a Bills fan, Bills 1533 01:20:36,080 --> 01:20:40,040 Speaker 18: are kind of turning into America's team. Everybody loves them, 1534 01:20:40,240 --> 01:20:45,479 Speaker 18: nice guys, mafia, everybody loves do you. I've been wondering, 1535 01:20:45,520 --> 01:20:49,160 Speaker 18: do you think that developing a roster like this with 1536 01:20:49,560 --> 01:20:52,840 Speaker 18: good guys and obviously the talent, but do they have 1537 01:20:53,200 --> 01:20:56,639 Speaker 18: or do you need a killer drive, to a killer 1538 01:20:56,680 --> 01:20:58,439 Speaker 18: instinct to go up to the next level and win 1539 01:20:58,479 --> 01:21:00,519 Speaker 18: a Super Bowl? Is necessary? 1540 01:21:00,720 --> 01:21:04,519 Speaker 3: Yes, in this game it is, and I think we 1541 01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:07,479 Speaker 3: saw well, I think we saw elements of it, Anna, 1542 01:21:07,960 --> 01:21:11,200 Speaker 3: I think it could be cultivated out of this roster. 1543 01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:14,360 Speaker 3: Steve has talked about this a countless number of times. 1544 01:21:15,479 --> 01:21:18,200 Speaker 3: With his Super Bowl teams, they had two or three 1545 01:21:18,240 --> 01:21:21,320 Speaker 3: guys that, as he says all the time, if they 1546 01:21:21,360 --> 01:21:23,960 Speaker 3: weren't in a fight, you knew they were on their 1547 01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:28,120 Speaker 3: way because they played with that kind of an edge. 1548 01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:31,599 Speaker 3: And I think the Bills have a few players on 1549 01:21:31,640 --> 01:21:34,519 Speaker 3: this roster like that. Alec Anderson would be one of them, 1550 01:21:34,560 --> 01:21:36,519 Speaker 3: the guys in the middle of something every time he's 1551 01:21:36,560 --> 01:21:38,680 Speaker 3: on the field, and thanks for the call. That's a 1552 01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:40,559 Speaker 3: good question, Anna, so call again. 1553 01:21:41,840 --> 01:21:46,280 Speaker 2: Teams with guys like that, you mentioned it, they sometimes 1554 01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:48,559 Speaker 2: turn it these, you know, teams that are like their 1555 01:21:48,600 --> 01:21:52,880 Speaker 2: finesse teams, they turn into a label like the New 1556 01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:54,720 Speaker 2: England Patriots have been that battle in this for the 1557 01:21:54,760 --> 01:21:57,720 Speaker 2: last three or four weeks of getting labeled soft. The 1558 01:21:57,800 --> 01:22:04,120 Speaker 2: Dolphins get called called a finesse teama as labeled as soft. 1559 01:22:04,280 --> 01:22:07,559 Speaker 2: It's hard to and the Bills seem I'll say this 1560 01:22:07,920 --> 01:22:10,400 Speaker 2: in if you want to look for a way that 1561 01:22:10,840 --> 01:22:13,960 Speaker 2: this team is different than the last couple of years. Yeah, 1562 01:22:14,040 --> 01:22:17,360 Speaker 2: this team's got a little more grit, most notably from 1563 01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:20,400 Speaker 2: their top draft pick this year. He showed it yesterday 1564 01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:23,000 Speaker 2: and it's been part of his persona and now he's 1565 01:22:23,040 --> 01:22:25,680 Speaker 2: starting to play like it. Plus the fact that they've 1566 01:22:25,720 --> 01:22:30,960 Speaker 2: got a running game that's that's making statements up front offensively. 1567 01:22:31,800 --> 01:22:36,400 Speaker 2: So yeah, they they did it. They've done it once 1568 01:22:36,439 --> 01:22:38,439 Speaker 2: in a while, like that last year in Dallas game 1569 01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:41,280 Speaker 2: they did against jackson It against Jacksonville in Week three. 1570 01:22:41,400 --> 01:22:44,479 Speaker 2: They they have done that more and seem better at 1571 01:22:44,520 --> 01:22:47,280 Speaker 2: that this year than they have in years past, and 1572 01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:49,160 Speaker 2: they do seem to have a little bit of that, 1573 01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:52,800 Speaker 2: you know, like I've been calling all a big I 1574 01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:54,639 Speaker 2: tell you something about the way I've brought up. It's 1575 01:22:54,640 --> 01:22:57,439 Speaker 2: a little bit of big brother stuff. I was the 1576 01:22:57,479 --> 01:23:01,040 Speaker 2: youngest of three of four sons, so three older brothers. 1577 01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:04,200 Speaker 2: And you want to know why a little guy like 1578 01:23:04,240 --> 01:23:05,880 Speaker 2: me was tough enough to play in the NFL. It 1579 01:23:05,960 --> 01:23:10,040 Speaker 2: was their fault. So that's kind of the way these 1580 01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:15,880 Speaker 2: guys are playing right now. They're playing like they've got 1581 01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:18,960 Speaker 2: a little dog in him and a little swagger and 1582 01:23:19,040 --> 01:23:22,400 Speaker 2: a little bit of like you can't and that's okay. 1583 01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:26,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, Explain why you need that in the NFL. Why 1584 01:23:26,320 --> 01:23:28,080 Speaker 3: why is that necessary on a roster? 1585 01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:31,679 Speaker 2: You need it in the NFL because it's a physical game, 1586 01:23:32,120 --> 01:23:36,080 Speaker 2: and you're gonna have to physically confront another man. If 1587 01:23:36,120 --> 01:23:38,519 Speaker 2: you're you're gonna have to physically confront him and push 1588 01:23:38,640 --> 01:23:41,400 Speaker 2: him against his will or make him do something, or 1589 01:23:41,800 --> 01:23:46,519 Speaker 2: beat him physically, not just mentally, but physically, you're gonna 1590 01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:48,719 Speaker 2: have to be superior to him. You have to fool 1591 01:23:48,760 --> 01:23:51,679 Speaker 2: him with your guile and your athleticism, or you're gonna 1592 01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:54,160 Speaker 2: have to just physically outpower him and push him against 1593 01:23:54,160 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 2: his will. That takes an attitude and a combative attitude, 1594 01:23:58,240 --> 01:24:02,519 Speaker 2: and that's what some teams don't have enough of. If 1595 01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:04,639 Speaker 2: you've got a lot of guys with wives and kids 1596 01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:07,280 Speaker 2: and mortgages and they got a little side business and 1597 01:24:07,280 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 2: they're doing you know, they're kind of you know, they 1598 01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:11,240 Speaker 2: got a big gun. Just fine, they're doing fine. You 1599 01:24:11,240 --> 01:24:14,240 Speaker 2: know they You don't you need guys like and I'll say, 1600 01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:16,200 Speaker 2: and I you know, Bill's fans don't have any love loss. 1601 01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:18,200 Speaker 2: But remember the old guy like Brian Cox from the 1602 01:24:18,200 --> 01:24:21,599 Speaker 2: old Miami Dolphins, Guys like Jerry Ostrowsky on the teams 1603 01:24:21,640 --> 01:24:24,160 Speaker 2: I used to play on, guys that you you just 1604 01:24:25,080 --> 01:24:27,040 Speaker 2: you just hope that they could keep it between the lines, 1605 01:24:27,080 --> 01:24:29,519 Speaker 2: because if there was a fight, not only were they 1606 01:24:29,640 --> 01:24:31,000 Speaker 2: going to get in the middle of it, they'd get 1607 01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:34,639 Speaker 2: a they didn't care game. You got guys like Darryl Tally, 1608 01:24:34,840 --> 01:24:38,600 Speaker 2: who his own teammates wouldn't cross because they knew you 1609 01:24:38,640 --> 01:24:40,599 Speaker 2: could be at a birthday party and he'd fist fight 1610 01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:41,880 Speaker 2: you if you want it, you know what I mean. 1611 01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:44,040 Speaker 2: I mean it was that kind of guy. You need 1612 01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:46,840 Speaker 2: those guys on your team, because then you knew that 1613 01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:49,599 Speaker 2: whatever happened to you, good or bad, you had that 1614 01:24:49,680 --> 01:24:53,559 Speaker 2: guy on your team that would jump in. Yep. It's 1615 01:24:54,439 --> 01:24:57,600 Speaker 2: it's a security blanket for your entire team when you 1616 01:24:57,640 --> 01:24:59,759 Speaker 2: know you've got a group of guys, maybe a handful, 1617 01:25:00,960 --> 01:25:04,639 Speaker 2: that they don't care if there's a fight and their 1618 01:25:04,640 --> 01:25:07,160 Speaker 2: teammates are in it, they're gonna throw a punch. 1619 01:25:07,560 --> 01:25:10,040 Speaker 3: We've seen Dion play with an edge. We've seen Spencer 1620 01:25:10,120 --> 01:25:12,240 Speaker 3: Brown play with an edge. We know Alec Anderson's a 1621 01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:15,559 Speaker 3: little off his rocker, but we saw it from Keon 1622 01:25:15,640 --> 01:25:19,120 Speaker 3: Coleman yesterday. Mac Collins is not afraid to exercise his 1623 01:25:19,240 --> 01:25:22,800 Speaker 3: physical prowess as a six or five human being at 1624 01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:25,080 Speaker 3: the receiver position. And I think there are a few 1625 01:25:25,120 --> 01:25:29,240 Speaker 3: on defense as well. Taylor Rapp plays with a physical edge. Okay, 1626 01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:32,599 Speaker 3: we've seen that, you know, and up front, I think 1627 01:25:32,640 --> 01:25:35,639 Speaker 3: there are some guys that we can probably list as well. 1628 01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:37,880 Speaker 3: But it doesn't hurt to see that kind of an 1629 01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:40,800 Speaker 3: edge out there because it convinces the other guys on 1630 01:25:40,840 --> 01:25:43,640 Speaker 3: the roster that you got the horses that if it 1631 01:25:43,680 --> 01:25:46,400 Speaker 3: gets a little ugly, you got people who can handle 1632 01:25:46,360 --> 01:25:46,840 Speaker 3: it a little bit. 1633 01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:50,280 Speaker 2: There's a little bit of psychology in it too. It's 1634 01:25:50,320 --> 01:25:52,720 Speaker 2: not just the fact that you'll play physical and you know, 1635 01:25:52,840 --> 01:25:55,280 Speaker 2: Taylor Rapp will come up and whacky and bang into you, 1636 01:25:55,320 --> 01:25:58,559 Speaker 2: and and you know James Cook comes in and knocking 1637 01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:01,360 Speaker 2: guy's helmets off. Yesterday ran very physical, and Ray David's 1638 01:26:01,439 --> 01:26:04,160 Speaker 2: the same thing. You know, all of that stuff. It's 1639 01:26:04,240 --> 01:26:07,840 Speaker 2: also the fact that between plays there's no give in 1640 01:26:07,880 --> 01:26:10,960 Speaker 2: your attitude. You saw Keon Coleman pop Woolen on the 1641 01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:14,120 Speaker 2: head yet yesterday with you know, after he caught the 1642 01:26:14,160 --> 01:26:16,880 Speaker 2: touchdown pass over the top of him, and you can say, yeah, 1643 01:26:17,160 --> 01:26:18,840 Speaker 2: that's a little bit of a oh, you know, kind 1644 01:26:18,840 --> 01:26:22,240 Speaker 2: of a like a hey, no hard feelings kind of move. 1645 01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:24,280 Speaker 2: It's also a hey, you're just not good enough kind 1646 01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:26,679 Speaker 2: of move. Both those things can be true. 1647 01:26:26,720 --> 01:26:31,360 Speaker 3: And he did it sophisticated in a sophisticated enough way, 1648 01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:32,439 Speaker 3: or he. 1649 01:26:32,439 --> 01:26:34,240 Speaker 2: Didn't get a taunting pay. Yeah, he didn't get a 1650 01:26:34,280 --> 01:26:37,160 Speaker 2: taunting pen. That's exactly right. That's pretty sharp for rookie. 1651 01:26:37,280 --> 01:26:39,680 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say that. I'm telling you it's the 1652 01:26:39,760 --> 01:26:42,120 Speaker 2: between the play stuff and the talking that goes on 1653 01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:45,160 Speaker 2: around there that were you give guys the attitude of 1654 01:26:46,200 --> 01:26:48,759 Speaker 2: you can say whatever you want, I'm not going anywhere, 1655 01:26:49,240 --> 01:26:51,040 Speaker 2: and you can take a swing at me if you want, 1656 01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:52,560 Speaker 2: but I can take a punch. I'm gonna give you 1657 01:26:52,600 --> 01:26:55,000 Speaker 2: one too if you can. You can, you can kick 1658 01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:57,519 Speaker 2: my behind if you want, but you're not gonna get 1659 01:26:57,520 --> 01:26:58,960 Speaker 2: it without getting a scratch on you. 1660 01:26:59,720 --> 01:26:59,840 Speaker 14: Uh. 1661 01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:04,600 Speaker 2: That kind of attitude is really important in a physical, intimidating, 1662 01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:10,559 Speaker 2: big man sport like football, and it counts for something 1663 01:27:10,760 --> 01:27:13,439 Speaker 2: in certain instances, not all the time, not every play, 1664 01:27:13,520 --> 01:27:16,360 Speaker 2: but when you need it, you gotta have it. 1665 01:27:16,360 --> 01:27:18,880 Speaker 3: It's gotta be on your roster.

He didn't have the Digs or anybody else 1714 01:29:45,920 --> 01:29:47,479 Speaker 10: to look up. So when he got on the roster, 1715 01:29:47,520 --> 01:29:49,840 Speaker 10: so he looked at he looked at our little guy, 1716 01:29:49,920 --> 01:29:50,559 Speaker 10: you know what I mean? 1717 01:29:50,720 --> 01:29:50,800 Speaker 14: Uh? 1718 01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:55,439 Speaker 10: And she here and well when al Mari got on 1719 01:29:55,479 --> 01:29:57,679 Speaker 10: his roster.

You're on tape. 1736 01:30:41,240 --> 01:30:44,439 Speaker 10: I need more screens to these backs, I need I 1737 01:30:44,520 --> 01:30:46,760 Speaker 10: need these bats to get involved in the past the 1738 01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:49,000 Speaker 10: game a little bit more to open it up more 1739 01:30:49,040 --> 01:30:49,400 Speaker 10: down there. 1740 01:30:49,479 --> 01:30:51,080 Speaker 19: But thanks for chaking my call, and I love you guys, 1741 01:30:51,080 --> 01:30:54,439 Speaker 19: all right, thanks, But yeah, I mean that's another dimension 1742 01:30:54,800 --> 01:30:57,640 Speaker 19: that Joe Brady really hasn't even tapped into yet that 1743 01:30:57,680 --> 01:31:00,120 Speaker 19: they can turn to in a given week. 1744 01:31:00,200 --> 01:31:03,760 Speaker 3: I mean, Ray Davis has proven himself capable. We know 1745 01:31:03,800 --> 01:31:06,080 Speaker 3: the receiving exploits of James Cook. I mean that guy 1746 01:31:06,080 --> 01:31:09,320 Speaker 3: can line up at receiver and be fine right in 1747 01:31:09,360 --> 01:31:12,160 Speaker 3: this league. He's that talented, in that gifted an athlete. 1748 01:31:12,560 --> 01:31:17,000 Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean, it's nice to know there's room 1749 01:31:17,080 --> 01:31:20,080 Speaker 3: to grow with what you can do with this offense 1750 01:31:20,120 --> 01:31:20,800 Speaker 3: going forward, right. 1751 01:31:20,760 --> 01:31:22,840 Speaker 2: I mean the stuff he said about Keon and having 1752 01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:25,600 Speaker 2: Amari Cooper come into the building, I don't know, we 1753 01:31:25,600 --> 01:31:29,400 Speaker 2: haven't heard from Keon too much on that. I'll say 1754 01:31:29,439 --> 01:31:31,800 Speaker 2: this though, when when I was in the building, when 1755 01:31:31,840 --> 01:31:34,040 Speaker 2: James Lofton came to the building and Andre was already here. 1756 01:31:34,120 --> 01:31:36,200 Speaker 2: Andre was a two or three year guy, when when 1757 01:31:36,280 --> 01:31:38,320 Speaker 2: James got here a three or four year guy. When 1758 01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:42,360 Speaker 2: James got here, and it did make a little bit 1759 01:31:42,400 --> 01:31:44,280 Speaker 2: of a difference, not only with his play on the field, 1760 01:31:44,320 --> 01:31:46,559 Speaker 2: but off the field as well. James personality and his 1761 01:31:46,640 --> 01:31:49,120 Speaker 2: knowledge and his and his attitude about you know what 1762 01:31:49,160 --> 01:31:51,720 Speaker 2: it took to be great. You can bet that one 1763 01:31:51,760 --> 01:31:54,760 Speaker 2: of the things that Keon is getting exposed to with 1764 01:31:54,800 --> 01:31:58,320 Speaker 2: Amari Cooper in the building is the conversations that Amari 1765 01:31:58,439 --> 01:32:02,560 Speaker 2: has with his quarterback and his coaches and the questions 1766 01:32:02,600 --> 01:32:07,320 Speaker 2: he asks, because by by Amari asking questions and like 1767 01:32:07,439 --> 01:32:10,560 Speaker 2: James Loften, coming in and asking questions and acclimating in 1768 01:32:10,600 --> 01:32:14,160 Speaker 2: the way that he did, it alerts the younger players 1769 01:32:14,200 --> 01:32:16,720 Speaker 2: as to what he thinks is important. When he asks 1770 01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:18,559 Speaker 2: a question about, hey, why do you do this and 1771 01:32:18,600 --> 01:32:23,439 Speaker 2: this and this? It alert and it tells you what 1772 01:32:23,520 --> 01:32:26,760 Speaker 2: he's seeing and what he thinks is important. Why are 1773 01:32:26,800 --> 01:32:30,439 Speaker 2: you doing this? And if he questions it, that also 1774 01:32:30,479 --> 01:32:32,040 Speaker 2: tells you something, Why are you doing it this way? 1775 01:32:32,040 --> 01:32:33,599 Speaker 2: Why don't you do it like this and this and this? 1776 01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:36,400 Speaker 2: And the answers to those questions, and you know, kind 1777 01:32:36,400 --> 01:32:40,400 Speaker 2: of expand the knowledge of what the guys that are 1778 01:32:40,400 --> 01:32:44,280 Speaker 2: already here see and feel about their own offense. And 1779 01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:47,519 Speaker 2: it's really really helpful for a young guy like Keon 1780 01:32:47,600 --> 01:32:49,400 Speaker 2: to have a ten year vet like Amari come in 1781 01:32:49,439 --> 01:32:51,880 Speaker 2: here and say, well, what's up with this? And he's 1782 01:32:51,880 --> 01:32:53,760 Speaker 2: saying because he'll know then that there are teams that 1783 01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:59,559 Speaker 2: do it differently. All this stuff expands your understanding of 1784 01:32:59,640 --> 01:33:02,519 Speaker 2: how things work in your locker room and in your offense, 1785 01:33:03,400 --> 01:33:06,360 Speaker 2: and that you know that breeds extra questions from Keon 1786 01:33:07,400 --> 01:33:09,840 Speaker 2: and when Amari Cooper comes in and does some of 1787 01:33:09,840 --> 01:33:12,040 Speaker 2: the stuff that he does. Keon's sitting over there looking going, well, 1788 01:33:12,040 --> 01:33:13,880 Speaker 2: if he's doing that, I get it. Well, if I'm 1789 01:33:13,920 --> 01:33:17,679 Speaker 2: able to do this, I'm gonna you know, I'm doing 1790 01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:21,160 Speaker 2: this right. It's it's just a revelation like, well, if 1791 01:33:21,200 --> 01:33:24,160 Speaker 2: you think you're going to schools, but you know what, 1792 01:33:24,200 --> 01:33:26,880 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go out here and punk this guy. I 1793 01:33:26,880 --> 01:33:29,080 Speaker 2: don't care. You know, why should I care. It's a 1794 01:33:29,120 --> 01:33:31,559 Speaker 2: whole new revelation about how you can play with an 1795 01:33:31,560 --> 01:33:34,280 Speaker 2: attitude and the attitude you have in your preparation and 1796 01:33:34,280 --> 01:33:36,120 Speaker 2: we all and as we all know, you know, preparation 1797 01:33:36,320 --> 01:33:39,880 Speaker 2: is the you know, is the key to success. So 1798 01:33:40,080 --> 01:33:41,760 Speaker 2: all of that is on the table. And I think 1799 01:33:41,920 --> 01:33:44,559 Speaker 2: you know you right, butch watching a guy do it 1800 01:33:44,560 --> 01:33:47,360 Speaker 2: and watching what he thinks is important and how he works, Yeah, 1801 01:33:47,400 --> 01:33:49,519 Speaker 2: you watch, Okay, he thinks that. You know, when you 1802 01:33:49,520 --> 01:33:52,160 Speaker 2: see him work, you understand what they think is important 1803 01:33:52,160 --> 01:33:54,519 Speaker 2: and what's been proven to be important in a ten 1804 01:33:54,600 --> 01:33:58,559 Speaker 2: year veteran's career. You're thinking, all right, I'm gonna do this. 1805 01:33:58,640 --> 01:34:01,960 Speaker 2: Then that's this is my thing, and that's and you know, 1806 01:34:02,000 --> 01:34:03,479 Speaker 2: you apply it to your own game and your own 1807 01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:05,960 Speaker 2: preparation and and I'm not going to say, you know, 1808 01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:09,559 Speaker 2: Amari Cooper is part and parcel y. Keon Coleman has 1809 01:34:09,560 --> 01:34:11,599 Speaker 2: had a great two weeks here, the last couple of weeks. 1810 01:34:13,240 --> 01:34:15,080 Speaker 2: But it might be we all kind of saw it 1811 01:34:15,120 --> 01:34:18,719 Speaker 2: coming though he was growing up to this point. Maybe 1812 01:34:18,720 --> 01:34:21,640 Speaker 2: he accelerated it though, whatever it is, better matchups, we 1813 01:34:21,680 --> 01:34:24,400 Speaker 2: know all for it. Let's squeeze Ken in Buffalo in 1814 01:34:24,479 --> 01:34:25,960 Speaker 2: here before the break? What's up? Ken? 1815 01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:29,240 Speaker 8: Hey fellas? 1816 01:34:29,280 --> 01:34:29,640 Speaker 20: How you doing? 1817 01:34:29,760 --> 01:34:30,160 Speaker 8: Can you hear me? 1818 01:34:30,200 --> 01:34:30,439 Speaker 20: Okay? 1819 01:34:30,520 --> 01:34:31,720 Speaker 2: Yes, we can go ahead. 1820 01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:35,439 Speaker 21: Awesome, thanks for taking my car well first and foremost 1821 01:34:36,120 --> 01:34:38,599 Speaker 21: obviously a big win, to say the least. To get 1822 01:34:38,600 --> 01:34:40,800 Speaker 21: two in a row on the row and three in 1823 01:34:40,840 --> 01:34:43,960 Speaker 21: a row during this stretch of the season is a 1824 01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:46,880 Speaker 21: really nice set of developments. But I want to comment 1825 01:34:46,880 --> 01:34:50,640 Speaker 21: about something that that I found to be fairly remarkable, 1826 01:34:50,880 --> 01:34:54,040 Speaker 21: and that is that we clearly we're more intent on 1827 01:34:54,080 --> 01:34:56,679 Speaker 21: throwing the ball on the first down in this game. 1828 01:34:56,720 --> 01:34:58,520 Speaker 10: That was pretty observable. 1829 01:34:58,520 --> 01:35:02,639 Speaker 21: I had actually my myself and my social media posts 1830 01:35:02,880 --> 01:35:05,960 Speaker 21: had commented about our need to so excuse me, yot 1831 01:35:06,000 --> 01:35:07,720 Speaker 21: throw the ball more on first downs because you run 1832 01:35:07,760 --> 01:35:09,400 Speaker 21: the ball so much on first down. And then it 1833 01:35:09,520 --> 01:35:12,880 Speaker 21: was then listening to your broadcast that you pointed out 1834 01:35:12,920 --> 01:35:15,479 Speaker 21: the fact that the Bills run the ball sixty one 1835 01:35:15,520 --> 01:35:18,080 Speaker 21: percent of the times on first down, which is not 1836 01:35:18,160 --> 01:35:21,080 Speaker 21: only very pronounced, that's better than a coin toss, and 1837 01:35:21,120 --> 01:35:23,320 Speaker 21: it makes us predictable. It was making us predictable. That 1838 01:35:23,320 --> 01:35:25,439 Speaker 21: helps explain why we sow lethargic at times we were 1839 01:35:25,439 --> 01:35:27,679 Speaker 21: so lethargical office, I should say. But on the point 1840 01:35:27,720 --> 01:35:31,360 Speaker 21: to kind of fast forward this particular game, we came 1841 01:35:31,360 --> 01:35:33,639 Speaker 21: out throwing on first down, our first drive, our first 1842 01:35:33,680 --> 01:35:37,080 Speaker 21: touch play action passed the Dawson nots. And the import 1843 01:35:37,160 --> 01:35:39,719 Speaker 21: of throwing on first down is that it not only 1844 01:35:39,800 --> 01:35:42,200 Speaker 21: puts Johnson a good rhythm, because if he's if he's 1845 01:35:42,200 --> 01:35:44,080 Speaker 21: in a good rhythm, then our users would be in 1846 01:35:44,080 --> 01:35:47,280 Speaker 21: a good rhythm. Moreover, we showed in this game against 1847 01:35:47,280 --> 01:35:48,920 Speaker 21: the Seahawks that we could use the pass and set 1848 01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:51,400 Speaker 21: up to run because of the success on early downs 1849 01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:54,200 Speaker 21: throwing the ball in particularly pass on first downs. Then 1850 01:35:54,360 --> 01:35:56,920 Speaker 21: the Seahawks depens didn't stack the box, so we had 1851 01:35:56,960 --> 01:35:59,720 Speaker 21: more running room underneath. So there were a couple of 1852 01:35:59,720 --> 01:36:02,000 Speaker 21: those the filings with alignment, then you have to hold 1853 01:36:02,080 --> 01:36:04,040 Speaker 21: because Cook has so much running round. So I think 1854 01:36:04,080 --> 01:36:06,400 Speaker 21: we should learn something from this that we don't have 1855 01:36:06,439 --> 01:36:08,519 Speaker 21: to be so predictable running the ball, because if we're 1856 01:36:08,520 --> 01:36:10,720 Speaker 21: so predictable sixty one percent of the time running the ball, 1857 01:36:10,920 --> 01:36:13,000 Speaker 21: they would also predictable throwing the bar, especially when they 1858 01:36:13,040 --> 01:36:15,000 Speaker 21: stacked the box, because then we're a second long third 1859 01:36:15,080 --> 01:36:16,720 Speaker 21: law and that's what makes them a difficult for Josh 1860 01:36:16,800 --> 01:36:19,000 Speaker 21: to be Josh. So we keep them in those manageables 1861 01:36:19,000 --> 01:36:21,120 Speaker 21: doubts that they thrown the first Hopefully we find that 1862 01:36:21,200 --> 01:36:23,360 Speaker 21: insightful as we go forwards. I just want to pause 1863 01:36:23,400 --> 01:36:25,880 Speaker 21: for the cars and all you gentlemen to time in 1864 01:36:25,920 --> 01:36:28,439 Speaker 21: and thanksgiving for sighting that data which backed me up 1865 01:36:28,479 --> 01:36:31,280 Speaker 21: that we were running the ball excessively on first out. 1866 01:36:31,360 --> 01:36:32,040 Speaker 21: So thank you, Tom. 1867 01:36:32,240 --> 01:36:34,240 Speaker 2: You bet sure, think Ken? Thanks Ken, and I'll say 1868 01:36:34,240 --> 01:36:38,040 Speaker 2: this too, you're right, and we're the last people on 1869 01:36:38,040 --> 01:36:40,439 Speaker 2: earth want the bills to be predictable like everybody else, 1870 01:36:40,439 --> 01:36:43,439 Speaker 2: because you know how we all, well even even our 1871 01:36:43,479 --> 01:36:45,280 Speaker 2: wives sit back on the couch and going, oh, they 1872 01:36:45,439 --> 01:36:47,320 Speaker 2: run it all the time in that spot, right, I 1873 01:36:47,320 --> 01:36:51,719 Speaker 2: mean I do it, everybody does it. I don't care 1874 01:36:52,080 --> 01:36:54,759 Speaker 2: if they're going six and two. You can predict anything 1875 01:36:54,760 --> 01:36:56,240 Speaker 2: you want. If we're six and two, I'll take it. 1876 01:36:56,800 --> 01:36:59,800 Speaker 2: So I get if they broke the tendencies yesterday and 1877 01:36:59,840 --> 01:37:03,720 Speaker 2: let to a huge win, no question about it. But 1878 01:37:03,840 --> 01:37:06,240 Speaker 2: let's face it, there was no need to light a 1879 01:37:06,280 --> 01:37:09,519 Speaker 2: fire under anybody when they're going. You know, when we 1880 01:37:09,600 --> 01:37:11,560 Speaker 2: lost two games in a row, Yeah, it becomes a 1881 01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:13,640 Speaker 2: little bit hard to defend that. But let me tell 1882 01:37:13,640 --> 01:37:15,080 Speaker 2: you something they've got now. They've won three in a 1883 01:37:15,160 --> 01:37:18,840 Speaker 2: row again, and they they're the same team, so they're 1884 01:37:18,880 --> 01:37:21,439 Speaker 2: being so successful running it on first down it's hard 1885 01:37:21,439 --> 01:37:22,920 Speaker 2: to pry them out of they're going to like going, listen, 1886 01:37:22,920 --> 01:37:24,760 Speaker 2: I know everybody knows we're gonna run it. We're running 1887 01:37:24,760 --> 01:37:27,519 Speaker 2: it at more than half the time. We're still getting 1888 01:37:27,520 --> 01:37:29,960 Speaker 2: six yards of pop, four to six yards of pop. 1889 01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:33,200 Speaker 2: We're still gonna do it. Yesterday they did not do that, 1890 01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:35,920 Speaker 2: and it paid dividends in a big win. I don't 1891 01:37:35,960 --> 01:37:38,760 Speaker 2: know what to expect now, because you know, now they're 1892 01:37:39,760 --> 01:37:41,960 Speaker 2: they are six and two and they're they're humming along. 1893 01:37:43,280 --> 01:37:44,400 Speaker 2: We'll just see And. 1894 01:37:44,840 --> 01:37:48,200 Speaker 3: Just so you know, Ken on first and ten sixty 1895 01:37:48,280 --> 01:37:51,320 Speaker 3: five percent run going into the game yesterday. 1896 01:37:51,439 --> 01:37:54,479 Speaker 2: That led the league and they changed it. 1897 01:37:54,520 --> 01:37:57,920 Speaker 3: To your point, through the first half, on first and ten, 1898 01:37:58,360 --> 01:38:01,559 Speaker 3: they ran it five times, threw it nine times, went 1899 01:38:01,720 --> 01:38:04,240 Speaker 3: almost two to one in the other direction throwing the 1900 01:38:04,240 --> 01:38:07,040 Speaker 3: football on first and ten, and to your point, it 1901 01:38:07,160 --> 01:38:09,280 Speaker 3: made a big difference. Got to take a break here 1902 01:38:09,320 --> 01:38:11,640 Speaker 3: because when we begin our number three, we will do 1903 01:38:11,680 --> 01:38:15,040 Speaker 3: it with our colleague team reporter Maddie glab As.

As we got up 1923 01:39:56,240 --> 01:39:57,960 Speaker 3: to eleven or twelve, we got a little dicey thing. 1924 01:39:58,080 --> 01:39:59,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was good on the sevens. So this is 1925 01:39:59,760 --> 01:40:04,320 Speaker 2: a it's been a streaky season. Three weeks with Maddy Wars, 1926 01:40:04,360 --> 01:40:06,000 Speaker 2: two weeks off and now we're up to thirty two. 1927 01:40:06,040 --> 01:40:08,960 Speaker 22: Now we're going three straight. Let's make it floor straight. 1928 01:40:09,479 --> 01:40:11,840 Speaker 2: So let's start it off, all right, the tone said, 1929 01:40:11,920 --> 01:40:12,519 Speaker 2: let's set the. 1930 01:40:12,439 --> 01:40:16,479 Speaker 22: Tone setter award is going to the fast start. On 1931 01:40:16,600 --> 01:40:19,719 Speaker 22: both sides of the ball. Coaches and players talked all 1932 01:40:19,800 --> 01:40:22,800 Speaker 22: week about getting off to a faster start as they'd 1933 01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:25,559 Speaker 22: been known for a team that was a strong second 1934 01:40:25,560 --> 01:40:28,040 Speaker 22: half team. They were done hearing about that. They wanted 1935 01:40:28,080 --> 01:40:31,320 Speaker 22: to come out with some gas and start this game 1936 01:40:31,360 --> 01:40:34,120 Speaker 22: off fast. Well, the defense has two three and outs 1937 01:40:34,160 --> 01:40:37,320 Speaker 22: to start the game. The offense scores on their first drive. 1938 01:40:37,400 --> 01:40:40,599 Speaker 22: They don't just score quick, they milk the clock. Put 1939 01:40:40,600 --> 01:40:45,040 Speaker 22: together a ninety yard scoring drive that takes more than 1940 01:40:45,120 --> 01:40:46,240 Speaker 22: nine minutes. 1941 01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:46,799 Speaker 15: Off of the clock. 1942 01:40:47,240 --> 01:40:49,800 Speaker 22: The fast start set the tone for the rest of 1943 01:40:49,840 --> 01:40:52,960 Speaker 22: the game. They weren't playing like, oh no, we've got 1944 01:40:52,960 --> 01:40:56,000 Speaker 22: to get a lead here, we're playing down. They were 1945 01:40:56,040 --> 01:41:00,120 Speaker 22: playing with the lead, still competitive, but with a call 1946 01:41:00,560 --> 01:41:02,920 Speaker 22: about them that says we just got to stay the 1947 01:41:02,960 --> 01:41:06,800 Speaker 22: course here. And it results in thirty one points on 1948 01:41:06,840 --> 01:41:10,080 Speaker 22: the scoreboard for the offense. This was their most complete 1949 01:41:10,160 --> 01:41:13,240 Speaker 22: game yet this season, and I think the quick start 1950 01:41:13,280 --> 01:41:16,400 Speaker 22: plays into that. Being able to set the tone, set 1951 01:41:16,400 --> 01:41:18,640 Speaker 22: the table on both sides of the ball, and it 1952 01:41:18,720 --> 01:41:21,080 Speaker 22: was consistent throughout the entire game. 1953 01:41:21,600 --> 01:41:26,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I keeps using the term wire to wire from 1954 01:41:26,240 --> 01:41:29,200 Speaker 2: the opening start line to the finish line. They were 1955 01:41:29,439 --> 01:41:31,839 Speaker 2: They played very well on both sides the ball. Real consistent. 1956 01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:35,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, speaking of consistence, if you gave any Bills fan 1957 01:41:35,600 --> 01:41:38,439 Speaker 3: the title to this award, I think most of them 1958 01:41:38,520 --> 01:41:41,280 Speaker 3: could get it in one guess, But mister consistent. 1959 01:41:41,600 --> 01:41:46,160 Speaker 22: Khalil Shakir, he has been so consistent this season. He 1960 01:41:46,200 --> 01:41:50,840 Speaker 22: had a strong performance against Seattle. When Alan looked for Shakir, 1961 01:41:50,960 --> 01:41:53,200 Speaker 22: he was there to make the catch and then fight 1962 01:41:53,280 --> 01:41:56,519 Speaker 22: for those extra yards. Shakir had a career high nine 1963 01:41:56,560 --> 01:42:00,759 Speaker 22: receptions yesterday. He has got thirty six of his thirty 1964 01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:05,799 Speaker 22: eight targets this season. He is so reliable in this offense. 1965 01:42:05,880 --> 01:42:09,000 Speaker 22: He makes the offense better because when he's in it, 1966 01:42:09,360 --> 01:42:12,439 Speaker 22: Josh Allen can find him and most of the time, 1967 01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:14,880 Speaker 22: if not all the time, it's gonna be a catch 1968 01:42:15,120 --> 01:42:18,360 Speaker 22: for Khalil Shakir. He had one hundred and seven receiving 1969 01:42:18,400 --> 01:42:22,800 Speaker 22: yards yesterday. Eighty nine of those were after the catch 1970 01:42:22,960 --> 01:42:26,679 Speaker 22: yards after the catch that led the NFL yesterday. He's 1971 01:42:26,720 --> 01:42:31,160 Speaker 22: not just consistent when he's targeted, he's consistent when he 1972 01:42:31,240 --> 01:42:34,920 Speaker 22: has the football in his hands. He can really make 1973 01:42:34,960 --> 01:42:37,960 Speaker 22: a defense work because he gets extra yards when he 1974 01:42:37,960 --> 01:42:39,200 Speaker 22: has that football in his hands. 1975 01:42:39,240 --> 01:42:39,439 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1976 01:42:39,479 --> 01:42:42,479 Speaker 3: So he's nine of ten yesterday and the other target 1977 01:42:42,640 --> 01:42:44,519 Speaker 3: got batted out of the air by a defensive end. 1978 01:42:44,760 --> 01:42:47,479 Speaker 3: Wasn't a drop, you know what I mean, Like he 1979 01:42:47,560 --> 01:42:49,240 Speaker 3: caught the nine that actually reached him. 1980 01:42:49,880 --> 01:42:51,519 Speaker 2: The one that didn't got bat out of the air. 1981 01:42:51,600 --> 01:42:53,080 Speaker 2: So he gets nine for ten. It's not like he 1982 01:42:53,160 --> 01:42:55,519 Speaker 2: dropped it, you know what I mean. He's unbelievable. Yeah, 1983 01:42:55,600 --> 01:43:01,280 Speaker 2: he is. That has been the biggest, I think the 1984 01:43:01,280 --> 01:43:04,519 Speaker 2: biggest attribute to his career here. When he's gotten on 1985 01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:08,080 Speaker 2: the field, the guy just catches everything they throw to 1986 01:43:08,160 --> 01:43:10,679 Speaker 2: him and like we said, you said only yards after 1987 01:43:10,760 --> 01:43:12,639 Speaker 2: catch and I was talking to ear in the show 1988 01:43:12,680 --> 01:43:15,160 Speaker 2: his balance. They can't knock him off balance. I know 1989 01:43:15,280 --> 01:43:17,800 Speaker 2: they have to drag him down or get her load 1990 01:43:17,840 --> 01:43:22,559 Speaker 2: of the and tackle him is he has turned into 1991 01:43:22,680 --> 01:43:25,759 Speaker 2: a really elite slot receiver in the NFL. 1992 01:43:25,840 --> 01:43:28,880 Speaker 3: All right, we keep it simple here with best catch, 1993 01:43:28,960 --> 01:43:30,720 Speaker 3: which I think most people will be able to get on. 1994 01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:33,160 Speaker 22: The first guest too, Rookie wide receiver key On Coleman 1995 01:43:33,240 --> 01:43:37,439 Speaker 22: had the best catch of yesterday's game. That catch is 1996 01:43:37,479 --> 01:43:40,639 Speaker 22: worth visiting multiple times, so let's do it again. Coleman 1997 01:43:40,800 --> 01:43:43,960 Speaker 22: showcased his ball skills when he went up in the 1998 01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:48,479 Speaker 22: air for that one handed touchdown grab yesterday on the 1999 01:43:48,520 --> 01:43:51,360 Speaker 22: first drive of the game. It was a beauty and 2000 01:43:51,439 --> 01:43:55,120 Speaker 22: he did it against a cornerback named Riek Woolan who 2001 01:43:55,200 --> 01:43:58,880 Speaker 22: went into yesterday's game allowing just a sixteen point three 2002 01:43:59,080 --> 01:44:02,960 Speaker 22: passer rating in coverage, the best in the NFL. That 2003 01:44:03,280 --> 01:44:07,120 Speaker 22: shows how much trust this coaching staff has in this 2004 01:44:07,280 --> 01:44:11,280 Speaker 22: rookie wide receiver to go back to him again he 2005 01:44:11,400 --> 01:44:14,840 Speaker 22: makes the catch for a touchdown. I believe Coleman took 2006 01:44:14,880 --> 01:44:19,639 Speaker 22: another step yesterday, and last week he took a step showcaseing, Hey, 2007 01:44:19,680 --> 01:44:22,160 Speaker 22: I've got a better feel for this offense. I feel 2008 01:44:22,200 --> 01:44:25,800 Speaker 22: comfortable in this offense now. Yesterday, I believe he took 2009 01:44:25,840 --> 01:44:29,559 Speaker 22: a step forward saying how he showcased just how he 2010 01:44:29,600 --> 01:44:34,240 Speaker 22: can impose his will on opposing defenses. He played tough, 2011 01:44:34,320 --> 01:44:36,559 Speaker 22: and he didn't look like a rookie out there. He 2012 01:44:36,600 --> 01:44:39,320 Speaker 22: looked like somebody that was confident and was kind of like, 2013 01:44:39,360 --> 01:44:41,439 Speaker 22: you know, don't mess with my stuff, because if you 2014 01:44:41,479 --> 01:44:44,360 Speaker 22: throw a ball my way, I'm gonna make a great 2015 01:44:44,439 --> 01:44:45,800 Speaker 22: play at a contested catch. 2016 01:44:45,800 --> 01:44:47,200 Speaker 2: And he had a couple of those yesterday. 2017 01:44:47,240 --> 01:44:48,960 Speaker 3: I was telling Steve earlier in the show, I'm sitting 2018 01:44:48,960 --> 01:44:51,120 Speaker 3: there in the postgame press conference, is him and Kalila 2019 01:44:51,160 --> 01:44:55,080 Speaker 3: up there, and somebody asks Keon, you know what was 2020 01:44:55,120 --> 01:44:56,800 Speaker 3: different about the first throw to you in the end 2021 01:44:56,880 --> 01:44:59,200 Speaker 3: zone that didn't connect with the second one, and he goes, 2022 01:45:00,280 --> 01:45:03,559 Speaker 3: I just told Josh, throw it higher, like not a problem, 2023 01:45:03,600 --> 01:45:05,960 Speaker 3: Like just throw another foot higher and I'll just go 2024 01:45:06,000 --> 01:45:06,280 Speaker 3: get it. 2025 01:45:06,320 --> 01:45:07,960 Speaker 2: And that way, the other guy can't jump that high, 2026 01:45:08,000 --> 01:45:08,600 Speaker 2: he won't get it. 2027 01:45:08,520 --> 01:45:10,559 Speaker 3: It was so matter of fact, like he wasn't trying 2028 01:45:10,560 --> 01:45:12,280 Speaker 3: to be cocky or anything. He's just like, I just 2029 01:45:12,320 --> 01:45:13,160 Speaker 3: told him throw it higher. 2030 01:45:13,280 --> 01:45:16,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. The attitude he showed in that game yesterday was 2031 01:45:16,240 --> 01:45:19,680 Speaker 2: completely different than he was a month ago, and it 2032 01:45:19,840 --> 01:45:21,519 Speaker 2: served him extremely well, and I think it's going to 2033 01:45:21,560 --> 01:45:25,920 Speaker 2: serve the team extremely well. Yeah. Uh, big man. 2034 01:45:25,800 --> 01:45:29,960 Speaker 22: Ballin, Big man balin. That is going to Austin Johnson 2035 01:45:30,160 --> 01:45:34,719 Speaker 22: for his defensive lineman interception. We love when the big 2036 01:45:34,760 --> 01:45:38,280 Speaker 22: guys get involved in things. And Austin Johnson got his 2037 01:45:38,439 --> 01:45:43,679 Speaker 22: first ever interception in his football career. Guys, hasn't happened 2038 01:45:43,680 --> 01:45:46,360 Speaker 22: in the NFL, didn't happen in college, didn't happen in 2039 01:45:46,439 --> 01:45:50,120 Speaker 22: high school. His first ever interception. The defensive line was 2040 01:45:50,160 --> 01:45:53,880 Speaker 22: getting after Seahawks quarterback Gino Smith. It was only a 2041 01:45:53,920 --> 01:45:57,320 Speaker 22: matter of time before they picked one off and got 2042 01:45:57,360 --> 01:46:00,360 Speaker 22: it into their hands because Greg Russoe started off wrong 2043 01:46:00,520 --> 01:46:03,600 Speaker 22: with two batted passes on that first drive, and you 2044 01:46:03,760 --> 01:46:06,439 Speaker 22: just knew something is gonna happen because of the way 2045 01:46:06,479 --> 01:46:09,080 Speaker 22: that this defensive line is playing well. It results in 2046 01:46:09,080 --> 01:46:12,559 Speaker 22: an Austin Johnson interception and the offense follows it up 2047 01:46:12,600 --> 01:46:14,599 Speaker 22: with the touchdown and go up twenty four to three. 2048 01:46:15,400 --> 01:46:19,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, that play was the Bills defense. And people I 2049 01:46:19,200 --> 01:46:21,240 Speaker 2: know are fans that call our shows, so they get 2050 01:46:21,240 --> 01:46:24,000 Speaker 2: frustrated with these teams' ability to throw screens against our 2051 01:46:24,040 --> 01:46:27,240 Speaker 2: guys and throw those little swing passes because they're an 2052 01:46:27,320 --> 01:46:30,120 Speaker 2: up the field penetrating Yeah, because our defensive line is 2053 01:46:30,160 --> 01:46:35,800 Speaker 2: so aggressive and fast. Listen that that's why sooner or 2054 01:46:35,880 --> 01:46:38,760 Speaker 2: later teams stop doing it during the games, because if 2055 01:46:38,800 --> 01:46:43,599 Speaker 2: our team sees it quick enough, it's a it's a 2056 01:46:43,640 --> 01:46:46,040 Speaker 2: bad play, not just a negative play, but a turnal. 2057 01:46:46,200 --> 01:46:48,599 Speaker 3: I think the other thing too, we talk about how 2058 01:46:49,160 --> 01:46:52,000 Speaker 3: the team has gotten better with each passing week. This 2059 01:46:52,120 --> 01:46:56,280 Speaker 3: defense has seen so many screens that they can sniff 2060 01:46:56,320 --> 01:46:58,519 Speaker 3: them out better. It's like you always say, the best 2061 01:46:58,600 --> 01:47:00,400 Speaker 3: kick return teams in the league are the teams they're 2062 01:47:00,400 --> 01:47:01,920 Speaker 3: getting scored on all the time because they have the 2063 01:47:01,920 --> 01:47:03,240 Speaker 3: most kick returns on the seats. 2064 01:47:03,040 --> 01:47:03,679 Speaker 2: Get live reps. 2065 01:47:03,720 --> 01:47:06,639 Speaker 3: They've seen so many screens, they're sniffing them out better. 2066 01:47:06,680 --> 01:47:09,880 Speaker 3: The ironic thing was Casey two Hill on that play 2067 01:47:09,960 --> 01:47:11,519 Speaker 3: didn't recognize it was a screen. 2068 01:47:11,760 --> 01:47:14,080 Speaker 2: But once you're committed, keep on going. 2069 01:47:14,280 --> 01:47:16,479 Speaker 3: Try to impact the quarterback in some way, and he 2070 01:47:16,520 --> 01:47:17,320 Speaker 3: put his hands up and. 2071 01:47:17,360 --> 01:47:19,559 Speaker 2: That ball actually got tip twice Casey two Hill got 2072 01:47:19,560 --> 01:47:21,280 Speaker 2: and also the running back tipped it as well. It 2073 01:47:21,360 --> 01:47:24,320 Speaker 2: got tipped twice before it got into Austin Johnson's hands. 2074 01:47:25,360 --> 01:47:27,280 Speaker 2: Tough catch, but when it hits you right in the gut, 2075 01:47:27,320 --> 01:47:28,960 Speaker 2: you know you'd be mad if you didn't catch it. 2076 01:47:30,280 --> 01:47:32,439 Speaker 2: Great job all around that you could see it wasn't 2077 01:47:32,479 --> 01:47:35,040 Speaker 2: just Austin Johnson there, it was Daikwon Jones was running 2078 01:47:35,080 --> 01:47:37,479 Speaker 2: over there. They had some dudes chasing that guy down. 2079 01:47:37,479 --> 01:47:39,599 Speaker 2: So it was going to be a bad play even 2080 01:47:39,680 --> 01:47:41,600 Speaker 2: if Austin Johnson didn't pick it. 2081 01:47:41,720 --> 01:47:43,439 Speaker 3: And that kind of leads us into the next one, 2082 01:47:43,520 --> 01:47:46,240 Speaker 3: the Best Line Award. Although this is a different kind 2083 01:47:46,240 --> 01:47:47,400 Speaker 3: of line than you're thinking of. 2084 01:47:47,640 --> 01:47:49,559 Speaker 22: This is a different kind of line. We're not talking 2085 01:47:49,600 --> 01:47:53,559 Speaker 22: about offensive line and defensive lineman here, We're talking about 2086 01:47:53,760 --> 01:47:57,519 Speaker 22: sentences that were said during this broadcast. Aaron Andrews had 2087 01:47:57,520 --> 01:48:01,639 Speaker 22: an incredible sideline hit in this and she said, guys, 2088 01:48:01,880 --> 01:48:05,040 Speaker 22: defensive tackle Ed Oliver came up to us before the game. 2089 01:48:05,280 --> 01:48:07,639 Speaker 22: He went up to Tom Brady and said, hey, Tom, 2090 01:48:08,080 --> 01:48:10,559 Speaker 22: do you miss me? And I just thought that was 2091 01:48:10,920 --> 01:48:15,240 Speaker 22: so funny. I love the attitude that Ed Oliver has 2092 01:48:15,960 --> 01:48:20,200 Speaker 22: had as a human and Brady said, no, I don't 2093 01:48:20,200 --> 01:48:22,559 Speaker 22: miss the pressure that you put on me when I 2094 01:48:22,680 --> 01:48:24,960 Speaker 22: was in games, so I had to call that out 2095 01:48:25,000 --> 01:48:28,360 Speaker 22: because I just laughed when I heard Aaron Andrews talk 2096 01:48:28,439 --> 01:48:29,559 Speaker 22: about it on the broadcast. 2097 01:48:29,880 --> 01:48:31,920 Speaker 3: I think he was his first career sack, if I 2098 01:48:31,920 --> 01:48:34,080 Speaker 3: remember right, that was that was Ed's first career. 2099 01:48:34,400 --> 01:48:35,960 Speaker 2: That smells right. I don't know if it is. I 2100 01:48:36,040 --> 01:48:41,479 Speaker 2: think it is, but to line it, yeah, so it's that. 2101 01:48:41,640 --> 01:48:49,200 Speaker 2: That's awesome. And that game yesterday in Seattle. I don't 2102 01:48:49,200 --> 01:48:50,519 Speaker 2: know what you thought. What did you think of the 2103 01:48:50,600 --> 01:48:51,720 Speaker 2: job Brady did. 2104 01:48:52,320 --> 01:48:55,280 Speaker 22: I thought I thought what he had to say. I mean, 2105 01:48:55,320 --> 01:48:58,840 Speaker 22: he was very complimentary of Buffalo on offense for sure, 2106 01:48:58,880 --> 01:49:00,760 Speaker 22: and defense as well. I thought he had some great 2107 01:49:00,840 --> 01:49:04,160 Speaker 22: nuggets on Josh Allen just as a quarterback and just 2108 01:49:04,240 --> 01:49:06,479 Speaker 22: on the Bills as a whole. Sean McDermott, you can 2109 01:49:06,520 --> 01:49:09,719 Speaker 22: tell he's a fan of this coaching staff, a big 2110 01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:12,160 Speaker 22: fan of Josh Allen and the way that they've operated, 2111 01:49:12,680 --> 01:49:16,160 Speaker 22: getting four straight AFC East titles, hopefully on route two 2112 01:49:16,280 --> 01:49:19,120 Speaker 22: fifth straight. With the way that they're leading the division. 2113 01:49:18,800 --> 01:49:19,960 Speaker 2: Right now, looking pretty good. 2114 01:49:20,560 --> 01:49:23,160 Speaker 3: We got to go to the Heating Up Award. This 2115 01:49:23,200 --> 01:49:25,519 Speaker 3: is kind of an area that's been a little bit 2116 01:49:25,520 --> 01:49:28,000 Speaker 3: of a buggaboo for them despite their early season success, 2117 01:49:28,000 --> 01:49:29,120 Speaker 3: but it looked better yesterday. 2118 01:49:29,400 --> 01:49:32,679 Speaker 22: Third down defense and offense has not been a bright 2119 01:49:32,800 --> 01:49:35,360 Speaker 22: spot for this team this season, but they have a 2120 01:49:35,479 --> 01:49:37,880 Speaker 22: chance to turn it around and make it into that 2121 01:49:38,160 --> 01:49:42,439 Speaker 22: if they build on what happened in yesterday's game. The 2122 01:49:42,520 --> 01:49:46,720 Speaker 22: offense converted fifty three percent of their third down opportunities, 2123 01:49:46,920 --> 01:49:50,080 Speaker 22: and on defense, they limited the Seahawks to converting just 2124 01:49:50,280 --> 01:49:53,240 Speaker 22: one of their seven third down opportunities. 2125 01:49:53,400 --> 01:49:54,280 Speaker 2: That is growth. 2126 01:49:54,880 --> 01:49:57,360 Speaker 22: This was a team on offense and defense who ranked 2127 01:49:57,400 --> 01:49:59,759 Speaker 22: in the bottom half of the NFL, really the bottom 2128 01:49:59,800 --> 01:50:02,680 Speaker 22: f third of the NFL. If you looked at what 2129 01:50:02,720 --> 01:50:05,479 Speaker 22: the Bills did on offense converting third downs and what 2130 01:50:05,520 --> 01:50:08,839 Speaker 22: the defense did in limiting opponents to convert third downs, 2131 01:50:08,920 --> 01:50:11,840 Speaker 22: it was a different story yesterday on both sides of 2132 01:50:11,880 --> 01:50:14,160 Speaker 22: the ball. I would love to see them build on 2133 01:50:14,320 --> 01:50:17,559 Speaker 22: this and turn it into something that's special the rest 2134 01:50:17,560 --> 01:50:18,120 Speaker 22: of the season. 2135 01:50:18,200 --> 01:50:20,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, and if you think about it, they were really 2136 01:50:20,680 --> 01:50:23,160 Speaker 3: better than those numbers at the end, indicated because Mitch 2137 01:50:23,200 --> 01:50:26,200 Speaker 3: Trubisky comes in and they're just handing the ball off 2138 01:50:26,200 --> 01:50:27,960 Speaker 3: at the end of the game. They don't get two 2139 01:50:28,000 --> 01:50:30,559 Speaker 3: third down conversions, and then the last ones a kneel down, 2140 01:50:30,960 --> 01:50:34,640 Speaker 3: so arguably they were like eight for twelve before Trubisky 2141 01:50:34,680 --> 01:50:36,280 Speaker 3: comes in, So it is even better than the numbers 2142 01:50:36,280 --> 01:50:38,400 Speaker 3: at the end of the game indicate, which is certainly 2143 01:50:38,800 --> 01:50:41,679 Speaker 3: an encouraging sign going forward. All right, last award here 2144 01:50:42,360 --> 01:50:43,000 Speaker 3: the assist. 2145 01:50:43,439 --> 01:50:46,840 Speaker 22: The assist is going to the fan base, Bills Mafia. 2146 01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:50,719 Speaker 22: Way to do your job. Yesterday in Seattle. You brought 2147 01:50:50,760 --> 01:50:53,960 Speaker 22: the noise for sure, because our head coach Sean McDermott 2148 01:50:54,000 --> 01:50:56,839 Speaker 22: was talking about it on the podium and several players 2149 01:50:56,920 --> 01:50:58,360 Speaker 22: were also talking about it. 2150 01:50:58,400 --> 01:51:00,240 Speaker 2: In fact, Seahawks scored back. 2151 01:51:00,360 --> 01:51:03,880 Speaker 22: Gino Smith said in his postgame press conferences that at 2152 01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:08,400 Speaker 22: time his home game felt like an away game. That 2153 01:51:08,479 --> 01:51:11,800 Speaker 22: home field advantage wasn't there for the Seahawks throughout the 2154 01:51:11,920 --> 01:51:15,360 Speaker 22: entire game, especially at the end when you could really 2155 01:51:15,400 --> 01:51:19,719 Speaker 22: hear Bill's Mafia come alive and celebrate a big victory 2156 01:51:19,960 --> 01:51:22,960 Speaker 22: on the road in the rain. Seattle is known as 2157 01:51:22,960 --> 01:51:26,519 Speaker 22: one of the hardest places to play because of what 2158 01:51:26,600 --> 01:51:29,400 Speaker 22: their fans do, because of how loud they are. Well, 2159 01:51:29,439 --> 01:51:32,400 Speaker 22: that wasn't the case yesterday because Gino Smith was saying, Hey, 2160 01:51:33,120 --> 01:51:34,959 Speaker 22: Bill's Mafia, Yeah, you brought. 2161 01:51:34,720 --> 01:51:37,960 Speaker 2: It that you can take that with you too, to 2162 01:51:38,160 --> 01:51:40,360 Speaker 2: any place you go to. Certainly home fans when their 2163 01:51:40,360 --> 01:51:42,719 Speaker 2: team's good and they're playing well and they're winning, everybody's great. 2164 01:51:43,400 --> 01:51:47,599 Speaker 2: But there is a blueprint for making a road game 2165 01:51:47,640 --> 01:51:49,719 Speaker 2: more tolerable, and that's getting off to a fast start 2166 01:51:49,760 --> 01:51:51,920 Speaker 2: like the Bills did. It's like keeping going three and 2167 01:51:51,960 --> 01:51:55,960 Speaker 2: out on the first few series of the game. It 2168 01:51:56,040 --> 01:51:59,320 Speaker 2: was much like the start that the Tennessee Titans got 2169 01:51:59,320 --> 01:52:01,759 Speaker 2: off to in high Mark Stadium the week before before 2170 01:52:01,800 --> 01:52:04,040 Speaker 2: the Bills walked them down and took the lead before halftime. 2171 01:52:05,000 --> 01:52:07,320 Speaker 2: That kind of game, we've seen it. That's what you 2172 01:52:07,479 --> 01:52:10,080 Speaker 2: have to do in a really difficult environment. Is what 2173 01:52:10,120 --> 01:52:11,960 Speaker 2: the Bills have done in Kansas City a few times 2174 01:52:11,960 --> 01:52:13,479 Speaker 2: in the regular season, where they go in there and 2175 01:52:13,640 --> 01:52:16,000 Speaker 2: they beat that team, You get up on them, you 2176 01:52:16,080 --> 01:52:20,439 Speaker 2: hang in there. It's hard for that crowd to feel good. 2177 01:52:20,720 --> 01:52:24,000 Speaker 2: You know, they're they're too anxious to stand up and 2178 01:52:24,040 --> 01:52:28,160 Speaker 2: scream and yell. And certainly over the course of the 2179 01:52:28,240 --> 01:52:30,320 Speaker 2: history of the Seahawks, they have been known that play. 2180 01:52:30,400 --> 01:52:32,320 Speaker 2: And I listen, I know it goes all the way 2181 01:52:32,360 --> 01:52:36,320 Speaker 2: back to the Kingdom Dassome. That place was tough to 2182 01:52:36,439 --> 01:52:38,240 Speaker 2: play in very tough. 2183 01:52:38,280 --> 01:52:40,960 Speaker 3: And you know, being there yesterday we kind of got 2184 01:52:41,000 --> 01:52:43,680 Speaker 3: a taste of what the canopy might do on the 2185 01:52:43,680 --> 01:52:47,120 Speaker 3: new stadium here because on the two sides of Lumenfield 2186 01:52:47,160 --> 01:52:52,000 Speaker 3: they have it's a hard canopy like construction bracing, you know, 2187 01:52:52,280 --> 01:52:56,639 Speaker 3: full concrete stuff, and it it does trap the noise 2188 01:52:56,840 --> 01:52:59,120 Speaker 3: and rein it back down on the field. So we 2189 01:52:59,160 --> 01:53:02,040 Speaker 3: got we gotta taste of that yesterday. I had kind 2190 01:53:02,080 --> 01:53:04,599 Speaker 3: of forgotten what it sounded like there, having not been 2191 01:53:04,600 --> 01:53:06,800 Speaker 3: there since the Monday night game in twenty sixteen, and 2192 01:53:06,840 --> 01:53:08,960 Speaker 3: that was that was loud, but you kind of forget 2193 01:53:09,000 --> 01:53:11,639 Speaker 3: over the years and just being back out there again 2194 01:53:12,280 --> 01:53:15,599 Speaker 3: in an open air booth, it's like, okay, yeah, that's 2195 01:53:15,600 --> 01:53:18,120 Speaker 3: a thing. So it's kind of exciting a little bit 2196 01:53:18,120 --> 01:53:21,160 Speaker 3: about what we're gonna get here in twenty twenty six 2197 01:53:21,600 --> 01:53:24,759 Speaker 3: for the start of the season.

I mean, you couldn't have asked for more. 2248 01:56:21,520 --> 01:56:23,800 Speaker 3: You had a three hundred and thirty pound man take 2249 01:56:23,800 --> 01:56:26,240 Speaker 3: a thirty two yard interception return back for a touchdown 2250 01:56:26,680 --> 01:56:30,240 Speaker 3: and Tom Brady threw four picks.

Games were just memorable moments that 2259 01:56:54,760 --> 01:56:57,360 Speaker 2: I turned around and looked at the stadium and you 2260 01:56:57,400 --> 01:57:01,480 Speaker 2: know it would and then as from a broadcast standpoint 2261 01:57:01,480 --> 01:57:05,160 Speaker 2: and a fan standpoint, stuff that I've seen and witnessed, 2262 01:57:05,200 --> 01:57:06,800 Speaker 2: and you know, being the legend of the game once 2263 01:57:06,920 --> 01:57:10,480 Speaker 2: or twice, I did that.

You know, 2265 01:57:13,320 --> 01:57:14,880 Speaker 2: moments and you know where you have a chance to 2266 01:57:14,920 --> 01:57:17,120 Speaker 2: meet a fan or something like that that were really cool. 2267 01:57:17,240 --> 01:57:20,600 Speaker 2: Did they win your Wall of Fame game night?

I forgot about that and I was walking 2274 01:57:39,480 --> 01:57:41,480 Speaker 2: around the outside. That was an opening kickoff for the 2275 01:57:41,480 --> 01:57:45,960 Speaker 2: second half. Yeah, so that was two thousand and seven. 2276 01:57:46,040 --> 01:57:49,840 Speaker 2: So I you know, and I say this, you know 2277 01:57:51,880 --> 01:57:57,600 Speaker 2: Bill's fans because of the relationship between people who grew 2278 01:57:57,680 --> 01:58:01,320 Speaker 2: up here and their team and how much the depth 2279 01:58:01,360 --> 01:58:05,920 Speaker 2: of the generational fanship that there is, it's you get 2280 01:58:05,920 --> 01:58:08,760 Speaker 2: some pretty cool stuff of you know, you know the 2281 01:58:08,760 --> 01:58:11,120 Speaker 2: guy's first game was with his grandpa, was, you know, 2282 01:58:11,280 --> 01:58:14,240 Speaker 2: forty years ago.

I think this Bills 2298 01:58:58,240 --> 01:59:02,440 Speaker 20: game against Dolphins has to be key because we cannot 2299 01:59:02,560 --> 01:59:06,000 Speaker 20: let the Dolphins back in the AFCAST race because Dolphins 2300 01:59:06,000 --> 01:59:08,520 Speaker 20: have a fairly easy schedule compared to the Bills. 2301 01:59:08,720 --> 01:59:14,320 Speaker 14: Bills got Colds, Chiefs, Niners, Rams, and the Lions. And 2302 01:59:14,400 --> 01:59:16,800 Speaker 14: speak of the lion, how the hell did you score 2303 01:59:16,880 --> 01:59:20,280 Speaker 14: sixty two points with the quarterback gets toys for eighty 2304 01:59:20,320 --> 01:59:24,120 Speaker 14: five yards and three touchdowns. I don't understand, I understand 2305 01:59:24,320 --> 01:59:26,400 Speaker 14: understand this. Please explain on your talks. 2306 01:59:26,400 --> 01:59:27,400 Speaker 16: Please, thank you guys. 2307 01:59:27,560 --> 01:59:30,080 Speaker 2: Okay, thanks Ryan. I gotta be honest. 2308 01:59:30,120 --> 01:59:33,440 Speaker 3: I have no need to apologize, No, not at all. 2309 01:59:34,280 --> 01:59:35,600 Speaker 2: That doesn't sound right to me. 2310 01:59:35,720 --> 01:59:39,240 Speaker 3: I want to believe that that he threw for more 2311 01:59:39,280 --> 01:59:42,720 Speaker 3: than that. I know they did run the tar out 2312 01:59:42,760 --> 01:59:43,160 Speaker 3: of the ball. 2313 01:59:43,280 --> 01:59:45,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, golf threw for eighty five yards twelve or fifteen. 2314 01:59:45,760 --> 01:59:49,080 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I do not know. I cannot explain. 2315 01:59:49,200 --> 01:59:51,600 Speaker 2: I did not see that idea how that happened. They've 2316 01:59:51,600 --> 01:59:53,720 Speaker 2: only they rushed for one hundred and fifty one hundred 2317 01:59:53,720 --> 01:59:55,560 Speaker 2: and sixty yards for the top two rushers were one 2318 01:59:55,600 --> 01:59:58,400 Speaker 2: hundred and sixty yards rushing. They threw for eighty five. 2319 01:59:58,440 --> 02:00:00,360 Speaker 3: They did have a special team touchdown. I know that 2320 02:00:00,400 --> 02:00:02,720 Speaker 3: on a punt return. I did see that on the highlight. 2321 02:00:02,840 --> 02:00:09,520 Speaker 2: Mason Rudolph through for through two interceptions, you have four guys, 2322 02:00:09,880 --> 02:00:13,000 Speaker 2: four guys with a touchdown catch, none of the longest 2323 02:00:13,040 --> 02:00:15,400 Speaker 2: of which was twenty four yard or the long No, 2324 02:00:15,480 --> 02:00:18,000 Speaker 2: it doesn't even say here we go. Here's going to 2325 02:00:18,080 --> 02:00:20,000 Speaker 2: be the answer that I believe. Yeah. 2326 02:00:20,080 --> 02:00:29,040 Speaker 3: So they had one, two, three, four, five six touchdown drives, 2327 02:00:29,400 --> 02:00:33,880 Speaker 3: Well what five touchdown drives? Because one was on a 2328 02:00:33,880 --> 02:00:40,360 Speaker 3: punt punt return. So here's where the drive began for 2329 02:00:40,440 --> 02:00:45,040 Speaker 3: their possessions Detroit, Okay, they had off an interception, a 2330 02:00:45,120 --> 02:00:48,120 Speaker 3: drive begin at the Tennessee twenty three. They go in 2331 02:00:48,160 --> 02:00:52,280 Speaker 3: for a touchdown, they go sixteen yards. They get a 2332 02:00:52,360 --> 02:00:56,040 Speaker 3: drive start at the Tennessee twenty five. After a long kickoff, 2333 02:00:56,480 --> 02:00:59,880 Speaker 3: they go twenty five yards, touchdown, They get an interception, 2334 02:01:00,280 --> 02:01:03,120 Speaker 3: take it back to the Tennessee twelve yard line, go 2335 02:01:03,200 --> 02:01:07,200 Speaker 3: twelve yards, touchdown, They get a punt, take it all 2336 02:01:07,240 --> 02:01:10,320 Speaker 3: the way back to the Tennessee twenty two go twenty 2337 02:01:10,320 --> 02:01:13,880 Speaker 3: two yards, touchdown, and then you had a punt return, 2338 02:01:13,920 --> 02:01:19,160 Speaker 3: which involves no offensive yards for a touchdown. So there's 2339 02:01:19,200 --> 02:01:22,200 Speaker 3: your answer. It's very similar, Ryan to the Week two 2340 02:01:22,200 --> 02:01:24,440 Speaker 3: game that the Bills had against the Dolphins. You look 2341 02:01:24,480 --> 02:01:26,280 Speaker 3: up at the end of the game, Josh is thrown 2342 02:01:26,280 --> 02:01:28,200 Speaker 3: for one hundred and forty yards and they have thirty 2343 02:01:28,240 --> 02:01:30,320 Speaker 3: one points. It's like, how the hell did that happen? 2344 02:01:30,680 --> 02:01:33,240 Speaker 3: They had four drive starts in Miami territory. 2345 02:01:33,280 --> 02:01:35,840 Speaker 2: Back in Week two. The same thing happened with the Lions. Yeah, 2346 02:01:35,840 --> 02:01:40,240 Speaker 2: it was turnovers, and that's it. You get. It's strange, 2347 02:01:40,240 --> 02:01:43,160 Speaker 2: and you're right, I hadn't really looked at the Detroit game, 2348 02:01:43,920 --> 02:01:47,520 Speaker 2: but yeah, there's a couple of things that are crazy 2349 02:01:47,560 --> 02:01:51,280 Speaker 2: in that. Yeah, Detroit had seventeen first downs. Tennessee had 2350 02:01:51,320 --> 02:01:51,960 Speaker 2: twenty three. 2351 02:01:52,400 --> 02:01:54,360 Speaker 3: Steve, You're gonna be happy when I tell you this. 2352 02:01:54,360 --> 02:01:55,000 Speaker 2: It's amazing. 2353 02:01:55,240 --> 02:01:58,920 Speaker 3: The Detroit Lions. The reason that Jared Goff only threw 2354 02:01:58,960 --> 02:02:01,400 Speaker 3: for eighty five yards. They had two hundred and sixty 2355 02:02:01,440 --> 02:02:06,000 Speaker 3: two return yards on special teams, two hundred sixty two 2356 02:02:06,680 --> 02:02:09,120 Speaker 3: counting a ninety yard pund return for a touchdown by 2357 02:02:09,200 --> 02:02:10,240 Speaker 3: Khalif Raymond. 2358 02:02:10,480 --> 02:02:12,320 Speaker 2: There's your ants, bless their heart. There you go. And 2359 02:02:12,360 --> 02:02:14,720 Speaker 2: they also had they had a snap they snapped off 2360 02:02:14,720 --> 02:02:17,640 Speaker 2: a seventy yard run as well. Yeah, in this game, 2361 02:02:17,720 --> 02:02:20,880 Speaker 2: two hundred and sixty two yards on returns Jamiir Gribb, 2362 02:02:21,400 --> 02:02:26,760 Speaker 2: Jamiir gri Gibbs seventy yards. So there you go, wild. Yeah, 2363 02:02:26,840 --> 02:02:31,320 Speaker 2: that's you're right. And Ryan from Toronto, you're on top 2364 02:02:31,360 --> 02:02:32,520 Speaker 2: of it and a lot more than I was. I 2365 02:02:32,520 --> 02:02:36,120 Speaker 2: hadn't really given the Tennessee Detroit game much thought except 2366 02:02:36,120 --> 02:02:37,920 Speaker 2: that it was a huge blowout. 2367 02:02:37,840 --> 02:02:40,040 Speaker 3: And they had short drives because they were in the 2368 02:02:40,280 --> 02:02:41,800 Speaker 3: Tennessee territory the whole afternoon. 2369 02:02:41,760 --> 02:02:44,640 Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what tent. How dark is it 2370 02:02:44,680 --> 02:02:45,280 Speaker 2: in Tennessee. 2371 02:02:45,480 --> 02:02:47,920 Speaker 3: Well, you just traded away two players, two of your 2372 02:02:47,920 --> 02:02:50,560 Speaker 3: top ten players. Do you think those guys are all 2373 02:02:50,640 --> 02:02:52,600 Speaker 3: amped up to play a game after seeing two of 2374 02:02:52,600 --> 02:02:55,600 Speaker 3: their best players that they're like, Well, the organization apparently 2375 02:02:55,680 --> 02:02:56,600 Speaker 3: thinks the season is over. 2376 02:02:56,640 --> 02:02:58,080 Speaker 2: Why am I going to lay it on the line here? 2377 02:02:58,160 --> 02:03:01,680 Speaker 3: That's right, that exists, so absolutely, back to the phones 2378 02:03:01,720 --> 02:03:02,879 Speaker 3: and to Jack in Buffalo. 2379 02:03:02,960 --> 02:03:03,560 Speaker 2: What's up Jack? 2380 02:03:05,440 --> 02:03:07,160 Speaker 25: First of all, I just wanted to say I saw 2381 02:03:07,160 --> 02:03:10,280 Speaker 25: a video and Terrell Bernard in his high school years. 2382 02:03:10,360 --> 02:03:13,520 Speaker 25: What a classy kid, what a great leader. I think 2383 02:03:13,920 --> 02:03:15,960 Speaker 25: it proves that the Bills do a great job in 2384 02:03:16,040 --> 02:03:20,320 Speaker 25: drafting and both character and talent. But a question for Steve, 2385 02:03:20,960 --> 02:03:23,960 Speaker 25: based on your experience, Steve, what could be done in 2386 02:03:24,160 --> 02:03:28,040 Speaker 25: huddles to prevent pre stamp penalties? Can it be reinforced 2387 02:03:28,080 --> 02:03:31,680 Speaker 25: by Josh? Is it something where they're benign consequences from 2388 02:03:31,720 --> 02:03:35,840 Speaker 25: the coaching staff without screwing up team chemistry. I'll wait 2389 02:03:35,920 --> 02:03:36,640 Speaker 25: your comments. 2390 02:03:36,680 --> 02:03:36,880 Speaker 20: Thanks. 2391 02:03:36,960 --> 02:03:43,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good question. And here's the thing. When 2392 02:03:43,120 --> 02:03:46,160 Speaker 2: you do these snap council, you get the cadence and 2393 02:03:47,560 --> 02:03:50,280 Speaker 2: you get into a game where we've already made the 2394 02:03:50,320 --> 02:03:53,760 Speaker 2: point that you get in these high intensity moments, and 2395 02:03:55,720 --> 02:03:59,480 Speaker 2: it's hard to keep track of everything that is important 2396 02:04:00,160 --> 02:04:04,520 Speaker 2: and basic to your job in those high intensity moments. 2397 02:04:04,520 --> 02:04:06,520 Speaker 2: Now some of you think it's easy because they do it. 2398 02:04:06,920 --> 02:04:11,000 Speaker 2: Think about it. These offensive linemen and Josh, they've They've 2399 02:04:11,040 --> 02:04:14,320 Speaker 2: had thousands of reps listening to Josh call the cadence 2400 02:04:14,360 --> 02:04:16,400 Speaker 2: and do all that. It'll give you an idea of 2401 02:04:16,440 --> 02:04:18,720 Speaker 2: how much is on their plate and what they're thinking about. 2402 02:04:18,920 --> 02:04:21,840 Speaker 2: Because Josh is not the only guy who's talking to 2403 02:04:21,880 --> 02:04:24,520 Speaker 2: them during the cadence, the guy next to them in 2404 02:04:24,520 --> 02:04:26,560 Speaker 2: the offensive line. All five of those guys are chit 2405 02:04:26,680 --> 02:04:30,480 Speaker 2: chatting at the top of their lungs, no doubt at 2406 02:04:30,800 --> 02:04:32,360 Speaker 2: what's going on in front of them. Got we gotta 2407 02:04:32,360 --> 02:04:34,360 Speaker 2: do this. We got that guy's were setting our protection 2408 02:04:34,400 --> 02:04:36,480 Speaker 2: off that guy that so all that's going on, and 2409 02:04:36,480 --> 02:04:39,600 Speaker 2: then Josh gives a hard count and you got an 2410 02:04:39,640 --> 02:04:42,520 Speaker 2: athlete coming off the edge on you. It's easy to 2411 02:04:42,520 --> 02:04:46,480 Speaker 2: see why they lose their train of thought. It's it's 2412 02:04:46,520 --> 02:04:49,800 Speaker 2: a universal problem. It's not just the Buffalo Bills, and 2413 02:04:49,920 --> 02:04:53,080 Speaker 2: certainly it's more difficult in a road setting. No matter 2414 02:04:53,120 --> 02:04:55,720 Speaker 2: what the Bills, how strong the Bill's mafia was out there, 2415 02:04:55,760 --> 02:04:59,040 Speaker 2: they were still outnumbered and the home crowd makes it 2416 02:04:59,120 --> 02:05:03,640 Speaker 2: hard to hear, So you would be I would be 2417 02:05:03,720 --> 02:05:08,440 Speaker 2: more upset if this happened. It does happen some in 2418 02:05:08,840 --> 02:05:11,120 Speaker 2: high Mark, but not as much as it's been happening 2419 02:05:11,160 --> 02:05:13,360 Speaker 2: on the road, and I think once the Bills get 2420 02:05:13,400 --> 02:05:16,360 Speaker 2: back in high Mark, you'll see a marked improvement. For 2421 02:05:16,440 --> 02:05:23,960 Speaker 2: all those reasons, it's hard to I mean, nobody's getting 2422 02:05:23,960 --> 02:05:26,240 Speaker 2: benched over it, and unless it happens time and time 2423 02:05:26,280 --> 02:05:29,560 Speaker 2: and time and time again, even if a guy has 2424 02:05:29,600 --> 02:05:31,120 Speaker 2: three of them in a game, you're still not going 2425 02:05:31,160 --> 02:05:33,200 Speaker 2: to get benched over that because it's you know, they're 2426 02:05:33,280 --> 02:05:38,760 Speaker 2: spread apart and all this stuff's going on. So his teammates, 2427 02:05:39,120 --> 02:05:42,680 Speaker 2: the leaders on the team, rather than the coaches, are 2428 02:05:42,720 --> 02:05:46,080 Speaker 2: the guys saying, hey, dude, tighten it up a little bit. 2429 02:05:47,320 --> 02:05:49,280 Speaker 2: But you can bet they're hearing about it from somebody, 2430 02:05:49,320 --> 02:05:54,920 Speaker 2: mostly probably their teammates. M let's go back to Bobby 2431 02:05:55,000 --> 02:05:56,520 Speaker 2: in Buffalo. What's up, Bobby? 2432 02:05:56,960 --> 02:05:58,360 Speaker 7: Hey, guys, how you doing today? 2433 02:05:58,440 --> 02:05:58,680 Speaker 2: Good? 2434 02:05:59,680 --> 02:06:03,880 Speaker 7: Good listen, I'm I'm looking I'm looking at you guys 2435 02:06:03,920 --> 02:06:06,560 Speaker 7: on TV as well. You know, I'm looking at the question. 2436 02:06:07,200 --> 02:06:11,800 Speaker 7: The biggest takeaway, uh takeaways from the game, you know well, 2437 02:06:12,240 --> 02:06:18,200 Speaker 7: to me was those those two ninety yard drives that 2438 02:06:18,280 --> 02:06:23,040 Speaker 7: the Bills had. You know, I was very very impressed 2439 02:06:23,680 --> 02:06:26,520 Speaker 7: by those two long drives, and to me, that was 2440 02:06:26,560 --> 02:06:30,720 Speaker 7: the turning point of of the of the entire game. Okay, 2441 02:06:30,920 --> 02:06:35,800 Speaker 7: Now that's number one. Number two. I did want you 2442 02:06:35,880 --> 02:06:40,640 Speaker 7: guys to uh answer answer this question for me. Okay. Now, 2443 02:06:41,320 --> 02:06:45,960 Speaker 7: I was looking. I was looking at the bills remaining schedule, okay, 2444 02:06:46,640 --> 02:06:50,120 Speaker 7: And I was looking online at the stats and everything 2445 02:06:50,280 --> 02:06:53,640 Speaker 7: and online you know, it was looking at it said 2446 02:06:53,680 --> 02:06:58,560 Speaker 7: that if if the season ended today and the playoffs 2447 02:06:58,560 --> 02:07:02,960 Speaker 7: started today, if the season ended, uh, they had the 2448 02:07:03,040 --> 02:07:06,960 Speaker 7: Bills listed as the third seed in the a f 2449 02:07:07,080 --> 02:07:10,600 Speaker 7: C right now, and and and now and and by 2450 02:07:10,680 --> 02:07:13,280 Speaker 7: and by looking at and by looking at the bills 2451 02:07:13,360 --> 02:07:18,000 Speaker 7: remaining schedule, is one game, one game on the bills 2452 02:07:18,040 --> 02:07:21,280 Speaker 7: remaining schedule that I'm scared of. And you guys are 2453 02:07:21,360 --> 02:07:24,400 Speaker 7: just talking about them. You guys are just talking about 2454 02:07:24,440 --> 02:07:27,840 Speaker 7: the Detroit Lions. Now, that's the one game that I'm 2455 02:07:27,920 --> 02:07:31,640 Speaker 7: scared of when the Bills played those guys, because to 2456 02:07:31,760 --> 02:07:35,280 Speaker 7: me personally, right now, the Detroit Lions are the scariest 2457 02:07:35,320 --> 02:07:39,320 Speaker 7: seeming in the NFL right now. Now now, and with 2458 02:07:39,320 --> 02:07:44,920 Speaker 7: with that being said, now, with those remaining games now 2459 02:07:45,280 --> 02:07:48,080 Speaker 7: that that the Bills have, because you know, they still 2460 02:07:48,120 --> 02:07:51,560 Speaker 7: got the division games, they still got one more left 2461 02:07:51,560 --> 02:07:54,560 Speaker 7: with Miami, one more with the Jets, and we still 2462 02:07:54,560 --> 02:07:58,120 Speaker 7: haven't played New England yet. But but, but, but the 2463 02:07:58,320 --> 02:08:03,080 Speaker 7: but the question remains is that now, if the Bills 2464 02:08:03,120 --> 02:08:06,600 Speaker 7: can maintain, if the Bills can maintain the role that 2465 02:08:06,640 --> 02:08:10,480 Speaker 7: they're run, could they remain in that third seed or 2466 02:08:10,520 --> 02:08:13,880 Speaker 7: are they capable to go any higher than that third seed? 2467 02:08:14,080 --> 02:08:17,520 Speaker 2: Yeah? They could. Here's the thing. They're tied record wise 2468 02:08:17,680 --> 02:08:20,480 Speaker 2: with the Houston Texans. Now. The Houston Texans are playing 2469 02:08:20,520 --> 02:08:25,360 Speaker 2: the New York Jets this Thursday night. I don't think 2470 02:08:25,360 --> 02:08:27,560 Speaker 2: the Jets are as bad a team as they've been playing, like, 2471 02:08:27,600 --> 02:08:29,280 Speaker 2: I mean, they got some stuff going on. It's dark 2472 02:08:29,360 --> 02:08:31,000 Speaker 2: over there in New Jersey now, I mean, no question 2473 02:08:31,040 --> 02:08:34,160 Speaker 2: about it. But if the Jets beat Houston and the 2474 02:08:34,160 --> 02:08:36,880 Speaker 2: Bills beat Miami, the Bills move into the two seed. 2475 02:08:36,960 --> 02:08:38,200 Speaker 2: Right there, they have. 2476 02:08:38,200 --> 02:08:40,800 Speaker 3: To finish with a better record than Houston to move 2477 02:08:40,840 --> 02:08:42,840 Speaker 3: ahead of them. They will not beat them if they're 2478 02:08:42,880 --> 02:08:45,040 Speaker 3: tied with the same record, because Houston has the head 2479 02:08:45,040 --> 02:08:48,560 Speaker 3: to head tiebreaker. That's the issue. That's why they're the 2480 02:08:48,600 --> 02:08:51,760 Speaker 3: third seed right now. They would need a better overall 2481 02:08:51,800 --> 02:08:55,120 Speaker 3: record to leapfrog Houston in the playoff standings. Same thing 2482 02:08:55,160 --> 02:08:57,920 Speaker 3: with Baltimore. If they end up tied with Buffalo with 2483 02:08:58,000 --> 02:09:00,440 Speaker 3: the same overall record. They have the head Baltimore as 2484 02:09:00,440 --> 02:09:02,080 Speaker 3: a head to head tie breaker over Buffalo because of 2485 02:09:02,080 --> 02:09:03,880 Speaker 3: their win over them in Week four, So they have 2486 02:09:03,920 --> 02:09:05,720 Speaker 3: to finish with a better overall record than those two 2487 02:09:05,720 --> 02:09:07,400 Speaker 3: teams if they're going to move up in the standings. 2488 02:09:07,720 --> 02:09:10,560 Speaker 3: So then obviously they do face Kansas City head to head, 2489 02:09:10,800 --> 02:09:13,040 Speaker 3: they would need to beat them and have a head 2490 02:09:13,040 --> 02:09:14,840 Speaker 3: to head tie breaker on them. But then they'd also 2491 02:09:14,920 --> 02:09:16,360 Speaker 3: have to have an identical record. 2492 02:09:16,520 --> 02:09:18,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, then the Chiefs have to lose two, they'd have 2493 02:09:18,960 --> 02:09:22,400 Speaker 2: to get beat by Buffalo and then lose one more 2494 02:09:22,480 --> 02:09:26,160 Speaker 2: game and for all that and plus all that stuff 2495 02:09:26,160 --> 02:09:28,760 Speaker 2: with Houston has to happen as well for Buffalo, and 2496 02:09:28,760 --> 02:09:31,160 Speaker 2: Buffalo can get the one seed. Yeah, so that's kind 2497 02:09:31,160 --> 02:09:33,120 Speaker 2: of weird. It's a long way away, but there are 2498 02:09:33,240 --> 02:09:35,760 Speaker 2: nine games. There are nine games, so there's a lot 2499 02:09:35,760 --> 02:09:37,280 Speaker 2: in a lot of football we can get there. 2500 02:09:37,840 --> 02:09:39,760 Speaker 3: We didn't go around the NFL earlier. We're going to 2501 02:09:39,800 --> 02:09:42,480 Speaker 3: do that now very quickly. Here presented by Kalaida Healthy, 2502 02:09:42,480 --> 02:09:45,600 Speaker 3: official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills. As we told you, 2503 02:09:45,640 --> 02:09:48,320 Speaker 3: the Bill's got some favorable results from around the league 2504 02:09:48,320 --> 02:09:51,200 Speaker 3: this week, Ravens lost to the Browns. Bengals, who are 2505 02:09:51,200 --> 02:09:53,320 Speaker 3: trying to climb back in the race, lost to the Eagles, 2506 02:09:53,320 --> 02:09:55,240 Speaker 3: and then the Dolphins lost on a last second field 2507 02:09:55,280 --> 02:09:59,160 Speaker 3: goal to Arizona in Miami, and the Jets lost when 2508 02:09:59,200 --> 02:10:02,120 Speaker 3: the Patriots scored go ahead touchdown with twenty two seconds 2509 02:10:02,200 --> 02:10:04,000 Speaker 3: left to faul to two and six on the season, 2510 02:10:04,000 --> 02:10:07,920 Speaker 3: as they have now lost five in a row. I 2511 02:10:07,960 --> 02:10:10,800 Speaker 3: want to remind everyone what Steve Sasker has said repeatedly 2512 02:10:10,800 --> 02:10:13,960 Speaker 3: about Aaron Rodgers, and that is the contention that he's 2513 02:10:14,040 --> 02:10:17,520 Speaker 3: not a leader, and that makes the quote I'm about 2514 02:10:17,520 --> 02:10:20,840 Speaker 3: to read to you very ironic this past week and 2515 02:10:20,880 --> 02:10:23,440 Speaker 3: his weekly appearance on the Pam McAfee show, Rogers, when 2516 02:10:23,480 --> 02:10:25,280 Speaker 3: asked about how to turn around a team at the 2517 02:10:25,320 --> 02:10:29,200 Speaker 3: time that had lost four straight, said quote, I think 2518 02:10:29,240 --> 02:10:31,320 Speaker 3: there's been some good leadership moments, but I need to 2519 02:10:31,320 --> 02:10:33,360 Speaker 3: be a great leader. I've got to do as much 2520 02:10:33,360 --> 02:10:36,160 Speaker 3: as I can to make sure row guys are playing free, 2521 02:10:36,440 --> 02:10:39,760 Speaker 3: and I'm gonna set the tone this week now. 2522 02:10:39,840 --> 02:10:40,720 Speaker 2: Rodgers didn't play bad. 2523 02:10:40,760 --> 02:10:42,760 Speaker 3: He was seventeen to twenty five for two thirty three 2524 02:10:42,760 --> 02:10:45,640 Speaker 3: and two touchdowns, and the Jets out gained the Patriots 2525 02:10:45,640 --> 02:10:48,640 Speaker 3: by almost one hundred yards, no turnovers. Drake May goes 2526 02:10:48,680 --> 02:10:51,280 Speaker 3: out with a concussion. New York's defense holds him to 2527 02:10:51,320 --> 02:10:53,960 Speaker 3: two hundred and forty seven total yards, but somehow allows 2528 02:10:54,000 --> 02:10:55,920 Speaker 3: him to convert eight to fifteen on third down and 2529 02:10:55,960 --> 02:10:58,320 Speaker 3: three or four in the red zone go for touchdowns, 2530 02:10:58,320 --> 02:11:00,800 Speaker 3: and they lose twenty five to twenty two. And we 2531 02:11:00,920 --> 02:11:05,240 Speaker 3: have to credit Dan Orlovski with the following statistic in 2532 02:11:05,480 --> 02:11:11,000 Speaker 3: NFL history entering yesterday's games, when a team scores twenty 2533 02:11:11,120 --> 02:11:14,720 Speaker 3: or more points, do not turn the ball over and 2534 02:11:14,800 --> 02:11:17,760 Speaker 3: allow fewer than two hundred and fifty yards. They were 2535 02:11:17,840 --> 02:11:22,160 Speaker 3: seven hundred and fifty and oh they are now seven 2536 02:11:22,240 --> 02:11:26,760 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty and one, and that loss belongs to the. 2537 02:11:26,720 --> 02:11:28,560 Speaker 2: New York Jets. 2538 02:11:29,440 --> 02:11:33,120 Speaker 3: The masters of self sabotage have done it again. 2539 02:11:33,680 --> 02:11:35,640 Speaker 2: Every time you think they have. 2540 02:11:35,680 --> 02:11:40,760 Speaker 3: Topped their own horrific history of spectacular failure, they somehow 2541 02:11:41,080 --> 02:11:48,680 Speaker 3: top it. It's actually quite amazing. I am amazed by it. Yeah, 2542 02:11:49,120 --> 02:11:53,320 Speaker 3: they literally reinvent ways to historically fail. 2543 02:11:54,200 --> 02:11:57,839 Speaker 2: Seven hundred and fifty and oh, it's so bad now 2544 02:11:57,880 --> 02:12:01,480 Speaker 2: in New York for the Jets that now this Thursday 2545 02:12:01,560 --> 02:12:05,840 Speaker 2: night they're gonna have Bills fans cheering for them to 2546 02:12:05,920 --> 02:12:09,240 Speaker 2: win a game against the Houston Tech. That is a 2547 02:12:09,240 --> 02:12:17,280 Speaker 2: true story, so it and you can imagine the mirth 2548 02:12:17,880 --> 02:12:22,400 Speaker 2: with which other teams in the AFC East, the Patriots, 2549 02:12:22,440 --> 02:12:25,400 Speaker 2: the Bills fans, and the Dolphin. You can imagine how 2550 02:12:25,440 --> 02:12:28,360 Speaker 2: delicious it is for the Jets to be going through 2551 02:12:28,400 --> 02:12:32,800 Speaker 2: this right now, particularly given the New York hype train 2552 02:12:32,920 --> 02:12:35,960 Speaker 2: that was, you know, within recent months has fired up again. 2553 02:12:36,080 --> 02:12:38,520 Speaker 3: One of the Patriots players in the locker room yesterday said, 2554 02:12:38,880 --> 02:12:41,640 Speaker 3: we didn't play our best game. We won the game, 2555 02:12:42,160 --> 02:12:45,560 Speaker 3: and at least we're not New York. A Patriots player 2556 02:12:45,640 --> 02:12:47,400 Speaker 3: said that after the game. And you want to know why, 2557 02:12:48,000 --> 02:12:50,040 Speaker 3: because if you're a Patriots fan, at least you can 2558 02:12:50,080 --> 02:12:52,880 Speaker 3: see your way to a future that's somewhat promising with 2559 02:12:52,960 --> 02:12:55,600 Speaker 3: Drake May. You don't have that in New York. You 2560 02:12:55,760 --> 02:12:58,160 Speaker 3: just don't break time for us back to close it 2561 02:12:58,240 --> 02:13:16,600 Speaker 3: up next here on One Bill's Live. All right, a 2562 02:13:16,640 --> 02:13:19,040 Speaker 3: couple more NFL notes to pass along. First of all, 2563 02:13:19,040 --> 02:13:23,080 Speaker 3: the compensation in the trade between New England and Kansas 2564 02:13:23,120 --> 02:13:26,680 Speaker 3: City that sent josh Ucha pass Rusher to the Chiefs. 2565 02:13:27,160 --> 02:13:31,160 Speaker 3: He went there for a twenty twenty six sixth round pick. 2566 02:13:31,200 --> 02:13:33,520 Speaker 3: It's basically because he's in the last year of his 2567 02:13:33,560 --> 02:13:36,320 Speaker 3: contract and is going to be a rental. There was also, 2568 02:13:36,360 --> 02:13:38,640 Speaker 3: in case you missed it, yesterday, a severe injury suffered 2569 02:13:38,640 --> 02:13:41,880 Speaker 3: by Stefan Diggs in the Texans three point went over 2570 02:13:41,920 --> 02:13:46,280 Speaker 3: the Colts. He non contact injury and I hate to 2571 02:13:46,280 --> 02:13:49,400 Speaker 3: say this, it looked eerily similar to the ACL injury 2572 02:13:49,480 --> 02:13:52,120 Speaker 3: suffered by Tredavious White down in New Orleans on the 2573 02:13:52,120 --> 02:13:55,800 Speaker 3: Thanksgiving Games, right, non contact legs stuck in the ground. 2574 02:13:56,400 --> 02:13:59,960 Speaker 3: The Texans are fearing it is an ACL injury for Digs, 2575 02:14:00,240 --> 02:14:02,200 Speaker 3: but they're gonna try to confirm it later today with 2576 02:14:02,240 --> 02:14:03,320 Speaker 3: an MRI exam. 2577 02:14:03,640 --> 02:14:06,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it's sad to see it, and you don't 2578 02:14:06,880 --> 02:14:10,640 Speaker 2: wish that on anybody, Nah, especially that guy after as 2579 02:14:10,640 --> 02:14:13,240 Speaker 2: good as he played for this club. And it's just 2580 02:14:13,280 --> 02:14:16,800 Speaker 2: too bad. It's a factor of the game. And yeah, 2581 02:14:17,240 --> 02:14:19,000 Speaker 2: now you hate to see it. You just hate to 2582 02:14:19,040 --> 02:14:19,360 Speaker 2: see it. 2583 02:14:19,520 --> 02:14:23,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, So news on that will probably come out later today. 2584 02:14:24,160 --> 02:14:26,839 Speaker 3: Head coach Sean McDermott and his coordinators will be addressing 2585 02:14:26,880 --> 02:14:29,720 Speaker 3: the media beginning at four this afternoon, so stay close 2586 02:14:29,760 --> 02:14:33,720 Speaker 3: to Buffalo Bill's dot com for updates.
