1 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: At a Steve tester who has been all over the fields. 2 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: Kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role 3 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:18,639 Speaker 1: player for you, Steve, Steve a blimp. We're not even 4 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: in the straged bear of normalcy. A bunch of Welcome 5 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 1: to one bills live here on a Tuesday. Steve and 6 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,159 Speaker 1: I are so busy carrying night conversations off the air, 7 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: we forgot we had to have one with you being 8 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: from noon to three. Turkey's done. Uh, we're on. Wow, 9 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: that guy snug up on us, Brownie, it did. But 10 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: that's okay because we're excited about mandatory minicamp, which is 11 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,959 Speaker 1: starting as we speak over on the practice fail right now. 12 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: And attention staff, attention staff. You've got a show to do. 13 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: We've got a show to do, and there seems to 14 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: be in our future perhaps a real, live, actual player 15 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: who's on the team on our show. It's very exciting. 16 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 1: That's in the next month or two. We're gon we'll 17 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: get to that in due course. As the players are 18 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,479 Speaker 1: set to hit the practice field, and it includes some 19 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: of the veterans that we had not seen in the 20 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 1: voluntary stages of the offseason program, namely Star Latoula, who 21 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 1: was in attendance and ready to roll today Jerry Hughes, 22 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: Mario Addison. We'll get the full rundown of who is 23 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: participating fully, who remains in a red non contact jersey, 24 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: and who is on the sidelines watching due to various 25 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: rehab assignments or what have you, Alla Zach Moss and others. 26 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: So Mattie Glab will be joining us in about an 27 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: hour from now to give us the full rundown and 28 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: work up usually on who's on hand, but with the 29 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: mandatory minicamp, you kind of need to be here now. Yeah. 30 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: It's kind of weird because usually the practice is like 31 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: starts at like eleven forty five, so we're kind of 32 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: we can kind of go jump right to Mattie. But 33 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: today because of the mandatory mini camps, they move for 34 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: whatever reason, the schedules have chased. Now the practice starting 35 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,919 Speaker 1: much later, it doesn't matter us. We'll still get Maddie 36 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: out there live as they begin practice for the first 37 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: fifteen twenty minutes of it. Yeah, so we look forward 38 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: to those updates from Maddie. There are some other updates 39 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: to cover as well around the league. One is that 40 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: Xavian Howard the top cornerback for the Dolphins, not on 41 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: handed mandatory minicamp. The word is he wants a new contract. 42 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: He's just got a new one like two years ago. 43 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: Well a giant last year. Last year was the first 44 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: year of that deal. I think yes, So he's only 45 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: one year in and he wants another one. Brian Flordes 46 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: like what. And he's not alone. He's not alone. Emmanuel 47 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 1: Ogma wants a new deal at a big money position, 48 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: you know, pass rushing off the edge in a three 49 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: four granted, but Emmanuel Ogma wants a new deal. And 50 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: there was another player on their roster who and I 51 00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: wrote it down and I left the sheet out at 52 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: my desk that wants a new contract as well. Oh 53 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: it's Mike Gisicki, the tight end. Gisicki, Agba and Xavian Howard, 54 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: all pretty important players on that roster, all want new contracts. 55 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: Welcome to mandatory minicamp, Miami Dolphins, Steve, I don't want 56 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: to make too much of it, but we've said it 57 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: more than once on this show. That thing, with each 58 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: passing day, with the things that are going on down there, 59 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: three different offensive coaches all scrambled together to decide the 60 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: play calling. Five of eight captains from last year's team 61 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: jettisoned off the roster. Now we hear about three different 62 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: players as we get to mandatory minicamp that want new contracts. 63 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: Important players, important starting players want new contracts. I am 64 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: telling you right now, Steve, this is a tinderbox ready 65 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: to go up in flames. It seems like it's really weird. Man. 66 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: They came in here week seven and I guess that 67 00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: really left a bad taste in her mouth because the 68 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: Bills lumped them up big time in a game they 69 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: had to have and make the playoffs. Let's just say 70 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: it one more time, in a game the Dolphins had 71 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,839 Speaker 1: to have. We've talked about it for weeks months. They 72 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: came in and the Bills crushed them with their backups, 73 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: crushed them even in the second half. Josh played the 74 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: whole first half. They had no shot at coming back 75 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: against our defense at that time, and they knew it 76 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: with their with their bright, shiny new young quarterback, had 77 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: no shot. And they they folded up. They folded up 78 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: their tent and went home. Five of their eight captains. 79 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: You said, big money guys, Van Noyd bit just signed 80 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: big new deals. Boom gone, just jettisoned. Now you got 81 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: guys wanting a new deal, like not showing up. Three 82 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, three guys that are gonna be what what 83 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: are they? What the what? What are they doing? And 84 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: I thought you and I have talked about it at length. 85 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: I think I got a lot of respect for Ryan Flores. 86 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: I think they play hard for him. They won ten games, 87 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 1: They were a hair's breath from getting in the playoffs 88 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: in a year usually ten or six year in they 89 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: just didn't get in this year. He gets he seems 90 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: to get those guys to play hard for him, but 91 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: it doesn't like somebody. They're out on a rail, no 92 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 1: matter who they are. Boy, he hits the chair of 93 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: the highway. Yeah, he hits the eject button as quick 94 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: as any coach in the league. He didn't care who 95 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 1: it is. And I get it. I mean, if you 96 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: get he's getting results, so to speak, I mean ten wins. 97 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: But man, oh man, it's a fine line though that 98 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,799 Speaker 1: you have to walk as a head coach in this league. 99 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: It's one thing to demand discipline and this is how 100 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: we do things. This is our daily operation and all 101 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: of that. And I'm not going to pretend to know 102 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: how heavy handed Brian Flores is. But the more I mean, 103 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 1: we've had Armando cell Gara on this show, the Miami 104 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: Herald columnist who's covered that team for the better part 105 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: of thirty plus years, and we've talked to other people, 106 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: people Alan Poopar from USA Today that covers that team, 107 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: And you know, I don't want to pretend to know 108 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: how heavy handed he is with his coaching, but these 109 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 1: things start trickling through and I'm not saying there are problems, 110 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: but it does. It does make the antenna go up, 111 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: doesn't it. Yeah, you gotta like, okay, is it you know, 112 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: are the players into it? Is he doing it? I mean, 113 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: they could all be on board one hundred percent. Well 114 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: if they're if there's if you got guys of that 115 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: stature who just signed deals coming back wanting new deals 116 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: in a in a year where the cap is lopped 117 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: by thirty million bucks, Are they trying to get out 118 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: of there? Are they? Are they expressing discontent? I don't Yeah, 119 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if we can go that far. That's 120 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: too speculative as I see it. I mean, I understand 121 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 1: you want to maximize your value while you know you're 122 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: in the prime of you're playing window. I get that 123 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: for Xavier, I know, but he is coming off like, 124 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: what a nine interception season. He's figuring I better swing now. 125 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: Up until that last season, up until the last game, 126 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: and this last season he was in the in the 127 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the Year, kept running. Yeah, I mean, 128 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: and I think he tied at least tied if not 129 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: held it individually the league lead for interceptions last season. 130 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: So I get why he's doing it. Um, but that 131 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: can get a little messy really fast. Mean it can't. 132 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: You gotta think. Okay, he does have some leverage because 133 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: of his play, but he just signed the deal. I 134 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: know that's the timing was bad, and now you gotta 135 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: suck it up and deal with it. I suck it up. 136 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: He gotta. He got a loose, lucrative contract. Yeah, it's 137 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 1: not like he's playing for peanuts. So yeah, I guess, Sicky, 138 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: you know that's interesting, still on his rookie deal. Yeah. 139 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: I think they might be like, hey, Mike, we we 140 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: like what you do for the team, but let's let's 141 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: just get through this year and then we'll take care 142 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: of or whatever it is. I don't know. I don't 143 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: know how they're gonna handle that. And then Emmanuel Ogba, 144 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: now with Shaq Lawson's fact contract out the door, his 145 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: agents like, all right, let's get something right, let's get 146 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: our mine. Yeah. So you know, that's a lot of stuf. 147 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,119 Speaker 1: Those are headaches you really don't want to be dealing 148 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: with in a year where you got to get your 149 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: quarterback firmly on franchise quarterback path, got to get him 150 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: firmly on that path. Those are just three extra things 151 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: you don't want to have to and the head coach 152 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: doesn't really have to deal with it, but in a 153 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: way he does. If his players are not there. We 154 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: know that Howard is not there. No report on Giziki 155 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: or Agba's whereabouts and whether they're at mandatory camp or not. 156 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: That's you know whatever. Um, But you say, well, that's 157 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: a front office issue. They handle the contracts. The coach 158 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,839 Speaker 1: handles the team. Well, if their player isn't there, they 159 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: got to handle that. Yeah, you know, so that's where 160 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: you're at. Um. Yeah, a lot there's a lot going 161 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,599 Speaker 1: on down there. It just seems like there's there's a 162 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: lot of churn, a lot of moving parts, a lot 163 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: of you know, a lot of parts that they Yeah, well, 164 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: we're gonna learn really fast what kind of juggler Brian 165 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: Flores is.

And 330 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: think about this too, and if you're looking for guys 331 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: to contribute, and if you're gonna say that about Star Lotulele, 332 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: who's been in the league for a while, Almos, the 333 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: first round picks played a lot of football. Same thing's 334 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:36,360 Speaker 1: got to be said for Spencer Brown and Greg Rousseau 335 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 1: who opted out, or Spencer Brown didn't opt out, his 336 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: season was canceled, virtually the same thing Rousseau and Rousseau 337 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: opted out. So both those guys are in the same 338 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 1: kind of boat that Star Lotulele is in. It would, 339 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 1: I would say, given that scenario, in those facts about 340 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 1: those three guys, especially a guy like Starr, and particularly 341 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: the young guys, which every young guy has an acclamation 342 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: you know period getting into the NFL, I think you 343 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 1: can you can count on particularly those young guys really 344 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 1: blossoming late in the year after they get a couple 345 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: of months of a month of training camp or Star 346 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,439 Speaker 1: it's coming riding a bike though, right, Yes, I think so. 347 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 1: I think he'll feel really good. I think there'll be 348 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 1: some things he forgets and they'll come back and just 349 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: have to brush up on. But man, rep after rep 350 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 1: after rep and training camp, going watching other guys do 351 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: it and remembering some things, it'll come back to him fast. 352 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 1: Let's go to the phones at eight oh three oh 353 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: five fifty. Waiting there for us is Elijah and Buffalo Elijah, 354 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: what do you have for us? You're on one Bill's 355 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:47,360 Speaker 1: Live Elijah. Hear me? Yeah, I gotcha? What's up? Hey? Okay? 356 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 1: So um. From my offensive X factor, I have Devin's singletary. 357 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 1: I feel like if we get that running game cracking, 358 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: we are going to be by far the best offense 359 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 1: in the league. I think the only team that would 360 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: be able to combat with us offensively is the Chiefs, 361 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 1: maybe the Titans because of the recent Julio Jones pick up. 362 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 1: And then on defense, I got Dane Jackson. I mean 363 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: he's just so talented and fundamentally sounded. I mean fundamentally sound. 364 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: I feel like he is a great QB two I 365 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: mean CB two for us. I don't think Levin could 366 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: do what Dane does. Okay, fair enough appreciate the call, Elijah, 367 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: thanks very much for it. We gotta get to some 368 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: other people. I will say this, Coach McDermott had some 369 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,439 Speaker 1: very complimentary things to say about Devin Singletary just a 370 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: short while ago. Basically he said in not so many words, 371 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: actually I tweeted out what he said. He basically said, 372 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: I've been impressed with his attention to detail, with the 373 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: finer points of what's required on all three downs. He's 374 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: been on top of it and vote Now, I'm just 375 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,959 Speaker 1: gonna say this coach doesn't hand out compliments like that 376 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: very often, so when he does, it's noteworthy. So Singletary, 377 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: we know, has worked extremely hard on his body composition 378 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: and his pure speed. We had his offseason trainer, Nick 379 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: Hicks on the show last week talking about it. He said, 380 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: motors got a motor Now. He estimates that Singletary will 381 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: shave off two tenths to three tenths from his forty time, 382 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 1: which at the combine was four to six six. Two 383 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 1: tenths gets him down to the mid four fours. Three 384 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 1: tents has him low four fours. I mean, that's exciting, 385 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: but let's wait and see. But seeing that he's that 386 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 1: he's working on the nuances of playing the position too. 387 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: That's big. It could be very big. But I think 388 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: when you look at him, I think it might be 389 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: even if he does step it up and become a 390 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: little bit more, a little bit faster in a straight 391 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 1: line forty, I think it's gonna be hard for casual 392 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: fans to see the difference. I think when you see 393 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 1: the difference is when he snaps snaps off a bigger run. 394 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: When he starts, it's like, oh wow, those guys are 395 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: really struggling to catch him, because remember last year, he 396 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: spends his whole even the forty or fifty one yard 397 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: run he had Denver against Denver, and he's weaving in 398 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: and out guys all the way down the field. Usually 399 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: when one of those runs happens, the guy gets an 400 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: angle and he just outruns people to the angle instead 401 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: of cutting back and then weaving back through and all that. 402 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: So when you start seeing Devin Singletary break into the 403 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 1: open field and it becomes a foot race and not 404 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 1: a dodgeball game, you'll know. You'll know he's made of 405 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: some strides. It's when he gets yeah, when he gets 406 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,160 Speaker 1: through the second level, Now what happens. That's when you'll 407 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 1: see it the long speed, if you will. For lack 408 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: of a better term, let's go back to the phone 409 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 1: to eight O three five fifty. We go to Jackie 410 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,719 Speaker 1: Orchard Park. Next, Jack, what do you have for us? 411 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: You're all one bills live. Hey, what's going on? Guys? 412 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 1: Pretty you having me on my offensive X factor for 413 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 1: the bill is going to be Emmanuel Sanders. I think 414 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: what every body gouts going again digs and then have 415 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 1: Gabe David's out there on top of cold easily. He's 416 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: just gonna be that hidden gem out there that's gonna 417 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: light up the field. From my defensive act factor Ajpanessa. 418 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: Nobody got some glimpses of him last season, but I 419 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: think with everybody that's arounding, you know, Gregor Russeau and 420 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: Carlos Fashion and everyone coming off the line, I think 421 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: he's gonna be another hidden gem that people are going 422 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: to forget about, but that he's going to be bring 423 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 1: some force to our defense. Yeah, good picks. I like 424 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: both of them. Jack, Thanks for the call. I will 425 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 1: say this, Emmanuel Sanders. I think the biggest value he 426 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: brings to the offense is the ability to diversify it. 427 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 1: I think there's more in his toolbox than there was 428 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 1: in John Brown's toolbox as a receiver. And so to 429 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: add a veteran with that kind of diverse skill set 430 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:55,360 Speaker 1: allows opportunities for this offense to expand even further. Yeah, 431 00:23:55,400 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: I think it'll give Josh more options. I guess put 432 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: it this way. I think Manny Sanders will offer Josh 433 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: more options of an easy completion nature. You don't have 434 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: to throw it over the top through you know, they'll 435 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 1: further you get down the field, the lower the odds 436 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: are of completion. I think Sanders will get separation closer 437 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: to Josh and make it easier for him to complete 438 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: even more passes. You might see him, you know, jump 439 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 1: over seventy percent completion percentage for more games this season. 440 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,199 Speaker 1: I'm not saying, you know, for the entire season, but 441 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: he had a bunch of them this year that he 442 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: was over seventy percent completion. That may happen a little 443 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: bit more this year. I'm not saying he's gonna, you know, 444 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: raise his completion percentage, but he's sixty nine point one 445 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: now or sixty nine point two. Sanders could help him. Well, 446 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: I guess I should say he elevated, yeah, to a 447 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 1: higher level because he'll get separation closer to where Josh 448 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: is and I think that's I think that's that's gonna 449 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 1: help Josh at least statistically. And then on the other 450 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: side of the ball, a JP and S is brought 451 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: up by Jack and I think while there is a 452 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: lot of while that is very much potential leaden in 453 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 1: picking aj epin S as your X factor, I think 454 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: there are people that are sleeping on him because of 455 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: all the attention that's being paid to Buffalo's top two 456 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: draft choices who happened to play the same position in 457 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 1: the form of Greg Rousseau and Boogie basham aj Epiness. 458 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 1: All he's done is put his head down and work. 459 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: It's been here the whole offseason. He's completely retooled his 460 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: body composition. Dion Dawkins is talking about how he can 461 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 1: feel a difference just leaning up on him in practice. 462 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: So to me, I think that's a very promising pick. 463 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: And if he can be an X factor, look out 464 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 1: because now that means Buffalo's pass rush is noticeably more 465 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 1: effective with him in the rotation there. So yeah, I 466 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: think a lot of people believe, and I think rightfully 467 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 1: so that the X factor defensively is going to come 468 00:25:56,200 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 1: from upfront. You know, maybe Dane Jackson could be CB two, 469 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 1: or maybe you know, one of the or they change 470 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: up Tarn Johnson and Levi Wallace, or you know, maybe 471 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: Dan Jackson becomes a slot corner or whatever. I think. Yeah, 472 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people believe because of the 473 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 1: structure of the defense last year and the production accompanied 474 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: whether the X factor is going to come from upfront 475 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 1: because they want to see a big difference up there 476 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: and as opposed to what they were last year. Yeah. 477 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: Back to the phones and to Tim in north Tonawan, 478 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: to Tim, what do you have for us here? On 479 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: one Bill's Live observation mainly about Star He seems like 480 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,640 Speaker 1: he's a lot quicker or a lot lighter than he's 481 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 1: been in the last few years, and I kind of 482 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to see what he can do when 483 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: he lines up next to Oliver. Kind of wonder what 484 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 1: your perspective in that is. Yeah, Steve actually commented on 485 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: this yesterday, So I'll let him handle this one. Tim. Yeah, Yeah, lighter. 486 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'll have to just I don't know. 487 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 1: I gotta get him on a scale. See, I don't 488 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: know he should. He's three fifteen when he left. If 489 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: he's there, okay, fine. He does look fit, he looks trim. 490 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: But I went back and I watched some of the 491 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 1: films from two years ago when Star was on the team. 492 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: He doesn't look like a big, heavy guy. He's way 493 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 1: over three hundred pounds, but he doesn't look it because 494 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: he is has got some length for as thick as 495 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 1: he is, and he's thick all over like Brown, he says, 496 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: so he can carry a lot more weight and not 497 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: show it than most guys can. I don't know that 498 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: he's now down to under three bills or we don't 499 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 1: know what his weight is, but you're right the workout 500 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: videos that we saw, he does look good. He looks 501 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,199 Speaker 1: athletic and as you would expect him to. You know, 502 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: that's the difference between NFL players who are big and 503 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 1: have a lot of size and who played down inside 504 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: and everybody else on the planet. They're not only that big, 505 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 1: they can also run, jump, move their feet, hand eye 506 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 1: coordination and all of that stuff. And Star is all 507 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: of that. He's always been in a really good athlete. 508 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: That's how you get to the top of the NFL draft, 509 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: where he was picked. We'll see what he feels like 510 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: after a full twelve or fourteen month hiatus. But yeah, 511 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: you're right. When you see him out there running his 512 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 1: feet look quick, he's hopping over the bag, shuffling around. 513 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: He doesn't look like a three hundred pounder. But I'm 514 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: telling you right now, he never has I have had 515 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: the opportunity to shake his hand. He's got brought worsts 516 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,360 Speaker 1: for fingers. Like he's just big all over, but he's 517 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: well proportioned. He's a well proportioned big man. He doesn't 518 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,239 Speaker 1: carry it all in his gut, you know, like some 519 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: of the guys of yesteryear, did you know, like Gilbert 520 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: Brown or you know guys that just they had it 521 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: all here in the midsection. Jamie Nails, He's yeah, he's 522 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,959 Speaker 1: just thick all the way through. So it's well proportioned mass. 523 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 1: And so while he looks lean, he's why he's so athletic. 524 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: He's still big. His ways distributed perfectly, and he's we'll 525 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: see that's the deep end of the gene pool, by 526 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: the way. Yeah. Yeah, it's one of those things you 527 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: can't you can't coach length man that that the height 528 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: is the thing, and then when he put that physique 529 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 1: on it. Wow, it's just that's why, this is why 530 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: these guys who they are. And you walked down through 531 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: the through the sidelines on a game day, take up, 532 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: take up, ping pong, you quickly realize that you are 533 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: not the one percent that you're watching out on the face. 534 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't stand. I'm not I existed 535 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: in that world. I really don't. You walk down there 536 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: and it's like, what was I doing? It was a 537 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: it's just defying It was another world, defying the I 538 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: can't believe how much swagger and cockiness I had at that. 539 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 1: I was like, I think I kind of have to 540 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: have that. I guess because I'm telling you what you 541 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: just I was too stupid to know any better, because 542 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: now I do. It is a It is a big 543 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,719 Speaker 1: man's game. Take it from a little guy who played it. 544 00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: It was a big man's It was that ignorance that 545 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: your thirteen years in the league, Yes you don't know 546 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 1: what you don't know, and that you had enough talent 547 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 1: in other areas of your skill set to carve out 548 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: thirteen years in the league doing it, and I was 549 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: better for it. It were so there you go break 550 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: time for us when we come back. Coach McDermott's most 551 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 1: poignant comments from his press conference with the media just 552 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: an hour ago. We'll bring them to you next, you know, 553 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,719 Speaker 1: on one Bill's Live presented by Colloid of Health. It's 554 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill's Radio. Glad to measure before the break, we 555 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 1: have some of Sean McDermott's more poignant comments as uh, 556 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: we'll be taking you out to the practice field and 557 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: about oh, I don't know twenty minutes time give or take, 558 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: and uh, get you an update on who's participating, who 559 00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: might be sidelined, who's still in a red jersey? As 560 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: we catch with Maddi glab I'm almost positive we can 561 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: get the camera and to point that camera at Star. 562 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 1: I think there's a good chance of that I get 563 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 1: it to see what he looks like. Speaking of Star, 564 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: that was the first question that coach McDermott was asked 565 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: by the media in his press conference about an hour ago. 566 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: And here is what he said he expects from Star 567 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: Latoula after a year off due to an opt out. Yeah, 568 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: there's definitely there's definitely been a gap in terms of 569 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: you know, his his playing of late just In terms 570 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: of and being here. So um, there is some catch. 571 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: There's gonna be some catching up to do. It is 572 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: good to have him here and and and participating. I'm 573 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 1: sure his teammates still the same way, and so you 574 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 1: know he can help us. We all know that. It's 575 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: just he's gonna have to get himself. He's going to 576 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: have to continue to put the work in to get 577 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: himself back acclimated, comfortable, if you will, heather and ready 578 00:31:58,160 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: to go. I mean, I think at the end of 579 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,479 Speaker 1: the day we will have to see because of the 580 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: time he's been out, so that remains to be seen. 581 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: Overall size, there's some leadership, a leadership component he brings 582 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: to our team as well, more by example than verbally. 583 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: But the first early down, the ability to give us 584 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 1: a point of attack up front, is what I remember 585 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: the most. I don't think we're surprised in the least 586 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 1: by coach mcdermot's answer because it falls right in line 587 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: with what he says every single year, which is nothing 588 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 1: is given, everything is earned. So here is Star Latoula 589 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: who comes back to the team after a year off 590 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: with a long resume of productive play, and yet here 591 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 1: we are, and he says he's got some work to do, 592 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: got some ground to make up. And I am not 593 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: the least bit surprised by that answer. Some of that 594 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 1: ground he's got to make up is probably no doubt 595 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: what happened to the defense in his absence. And you say, well, 596 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 1: it's the same defense of scheme. Oh, no, game, plans happened. 597 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 1: Wrinkles are put in. Verbiage's change when he yeah, he's 598 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: got it right. Not only is a guy in the 599 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: room coaching him up a different guy than he left. 600 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: The verbiage is going to be down the road fourteen 601 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: months from where it was. Where the wrinkles they put in, 602 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 1: the words they use, the code words, the adjustments that 603 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 1: they use, all of that's going to be different. Now. 604 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 1: The ideas are the same. But to get there, you've 605 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: got to understand, you know, the kind of verbiage they're 606 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: using now, all that stuff's evolved over fourteen months as well. Um, 607 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: and there's going to be a lot of new faces 608 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: in the room. This is a different group in there 609 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: than it was when he left. Remember, Trent Murphy was here, 610 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: you know all you know, there's a ton of guys 611 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: that are not here that we're here Justin Zimmer is here. 612 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: The last time star Lutu Lele was here, Harrison Phillips 613 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 1: was out for the year with an acl Um Vernon 614 00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:00,479 Speaker 1: Butler is here, he was not here. Mario Addas is here, 615 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 1: he was not here. Aj Panessa's here. He was not here. 616 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of new faces in the room 617 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: when he gets back in there and starts being a 618 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 1: defensive line leader. The faces that are familiar, however, are 619 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: those of the coordinators. All three, in fact, are now 620 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:22,439 Speaker 1: entering year three together. For Dabele and Frasier, it's year 621 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,439 Speaker 1: four together. Frasier obviously has been here since the start 622 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 1: all five seasons. Well, this will be the fifth season 623 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 1: under Sean McDermott. Dabele came a year later, and then 624 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 1: Heath Farwell a year after that. But they are all 625 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: back against all ots. Quite frankly, knowing that Brian Dabele 626 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: had a pair of head coaching interviews and was a 627 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 1: prime candidate and a finalist for the Chargers job, and 628 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,880 Speaker 1: Leslie Frasier who interviewed for the Houston Texans head coaching position. 629 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 1: So I asked Sean McDermott this morning on the Zoom call, 630 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: where is the value in terms of the finer points 631 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,359 Speaker 1: of the game, because with when you have these coordinators 632 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: on board already for several years, the foundation is already there. 633 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,879 Speaker 1: So does that I asked him if that allows him 634 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,919 Speaker 1: and as coordinators to maybe spend a little more time 635 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: on the finer points and the nuances of the game 636 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: to gain a competitive advantage. Here was his answer. There's 637 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 1: a value in the cohesiveness of the group, no doubt 638 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 1: in that cohesion, Chris, And you know within that though 639 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: you have to you have to also be careful not 640 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:32,360 Speaker 1: to get stale, and that you have to always embrace 641 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: the growth mindset to continue to grow, continue to push 642 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 1: the envelope. And and so going back to the foundation 643 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:43,919 Speaker 1: of it of your question, there is that familiarity and 644 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: that also allows us to take further steps into those 645 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:52,839 Speaker 1: finer points than more granular pieces of the game. And 646 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 1: it seems like we're always chasing it even though we 647 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: have been together for a few years now. We know 648 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: that coach is big on situational football st So that's 649 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 1: why I asked the question, how how granular can you 650 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 1: get when you have guys that have been here, players 651 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: that have experienced working under these coordinators and they're still here. 652 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:16,240 Speaker 1: It's all about being unpredictable within an offense that hasn't 653 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 1: changed that much. And it's you know, in the way 654 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: you do things, you can't let other teams, particularly the 655 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,320 Speaker 1: ones you see twice a year in your own division, 656 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,399 Speaker 1: get a handle on how you do things all the time. 657 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 1: In this situation you do that. If this situation you 658 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 1: do something else, in another situation you do exactly the 659 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 1: other thing. When you get predictable, you get you know 660 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: you're at a disadvantage. And so the growth mindset means 661 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: you've got to keep your mind open to doing things 662 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: in a different and better way and taking advantage of 663 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 1: things you've done in the past and building on them 664 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 1: to give yourselves a chance to be successful in the 665 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: future given what other people see in you. So it's like, 666 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 1: what do they think about me? Is the most important 667 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: thing that you can find and that change is constantly 668 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 1: in that. You know, getting keeping from getting stale is 669 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: really difficult in the NFL, and and they battle it 670 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:12,800 Speaker 1: all the time, right, and being more successful means getting 671 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: back to business as usual when you can carry on 672 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 1: your daily operation as you have and Coach McDermott who 673 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:22,720 Speaker 1: admitted in the last time that he met the media 674 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,879 Speaker 1: back in late May that he was concerned in terms 675 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 1: of where the vaccination status of his player roster was, 676 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: was asked for an update today if he feels any 677 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 1: better about the status of vaccinations, etc. Here's what he 678 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 1: said about where things are headed with respect to player 679 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:44,959 Speaker 1: vaccinations on this roster. We're trying to do our best 680 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 1: to educate, build awareness. At the end of the day, 681 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 1: the players in this case that you're referring to have 682 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 1: to make up, have to make their own decision. We know, 683 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 1: we feel like we know in our country and around 684 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: the league where and how things are improving and and 685 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:09,880 Speaker 1: it's to me there's a direct correlation to people getting vaccinated. 686 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 1: So again, I would like to continue to see our 687 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 1: team move in that direction, continue to move an increased 688 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: number of people that are getting vaccinated. Certainly respect everyone's position. 689 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 1: That being said, so that's really where I'm at, where 690 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 1: we're at, and it's good to have the guys here. 691 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 1: I think the reality of our situation is that you 692 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 1: know now, but also for sure come to fall training camp, 693 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 1: you know protocols are going to be are going to 694 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 1: continue to be enforced. In particular for those who are 695 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 1: unvaccinated as it relates to the masking and the different 696 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 1: things that are in place. So just trying to be 697 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:55,280 Speaker 1: real about it and make sure everyone understands what normal 698 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: is going to look like, in particular for those that 699 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,479 Speaker 1: are unvaccinated come to fall. Just so just a short 700 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,799 Speaker 1: answer follow Did you feel better about that now than 701 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: maybe you did the last time we talked to you? Better? Yeah? 702 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 1: I feel better. Yeah, I feel better. I feel like 703 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 1: we're moving in the right direction. And the important pieces 704 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: that we continue to again build awareness and continue to 705 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: move in the right direction. So good news on the 706 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 1: vaccination front as it pertains to the roster. Still some 707 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 1: work to do, but I think you can almost see 708 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: the relief on Coach's face that things are going the 709 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 1: right way in terms of getting players vaccinated. And as 710 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 1: he said, there's no denying that vaccinations across the country 711 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 1: have helped nip this virus in the bud and drop 712 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 1: numbers across the country. It's just as science. It has 713 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 1: also greatly mitigated the symptoms if you do contract. Even 714 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: if you do you're one of the five percent of 715 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 1: the people who get vaccinated and still contracted disease. This 716 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 1: symptoms are you're unaffective, uneffective, So that's a plus as well. 717 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 1: And I get it too. You know the other side 718 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 1: of the coin is the things brand new. We don't 719 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: know what it's going to do to people five years, 720 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:15,319 Speaker 1: ten years, fifteen, twenty five years down the line. But 721 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 1: you may not get to fifteen years down the line, 722 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: you know what I mean if you're unvaccinated, because I 723 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,839 Speaker 1: mean that's right. Yeah, there there is a risk and yeah, 724 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,239 Speaker 1: I mean it's everybody. Yeah, it's tough. Yeah, we'll see 725 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: where it goes. We all of us. We hope all 726 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 1: of them get vaccinated. Well yeah, because everybody's safer that way. 727 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: So um, exactly, we have to take a break. When 728 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 1: we come back, we will get more information on what's 729 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: going on out there on the field. And we're about 730 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 1: ten minutes away from checking in with Maddie Glab on 731 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 1: the sidelines back in a moment here on One Builds Life. 732 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,280 Speaker 1: Welcome back to One Bill's Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker 733 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,759 Speaker 1: with you, and I'm gonna take a quick phone call 734 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 1: here from Bobby and Lancaster, who has his X factor 735 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 1: for the Bills on offense and defense. In twenty twenty one, Bobby, 736 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 1: what do you got for us? Bobby? All right, I'll 737 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 1: put Bobby back on hold just to be safe. We'll 738 00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 1: get back to him at a later time. Bobby's killing 739 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,759 Speaker 1: us well, I don't know. Maybe he's enjoying the weather. 740 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 1: But we're about You're gonna take We're gonna be here 741 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 1: for a minute or two, gonna break, come back, and 742 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 1: Mattie's gonna be on the practicfel I can't wait. Yeah, 743 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 1: should be great. Um, did you get the feeling more 744 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 1: so than any other topic? This vaccination thing kind of 745 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:49,320 Speaker 1: whears Sean McDermott out talking about it. Did you get well, Well, 746 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:51,839 Speaker 1: he's not in the regular season yet, so at least 747 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 1: it's not an everyday thing, but it will resurface on 748 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: day one of training camp. Hey, where are you at? 749 00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 1: What's the update? Can you carry on business as usual? 750 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 1: Have you reached the threshold? And the league hasn't even 751 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,880 Speaker 1: set what the threshold percentage is. It's eighty five percent 752 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,879 Speaker 1: has been floated out there, right, but the league has 753 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,919 Speaker 1: not come down on a specific percentage because they still 754 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:16,640 Speaker 1: have negotiating to do with the players. Here's as to 755 00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:18,800 Speaker 1: what the numbers should be. Here's my question to you, Brownie. 756 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: Maybe you don't have the answer, because I certainly don't. 757 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 1: If they had eighty five percent vaccinated, now, could they 758 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: like do away with all the social distancing and masks. 759 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if they can because it hasn't been 760 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 1: approved by the union with the league, so and for 761 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:41,320 Speaker 1: what it's worth, I don't think there's a team in 762 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: the league it's at eighty five percent. Tom Pellicero from 763 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: NFL Network just today tweeted out per Resource that league wide, 764 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 1: more than fifty percent of players have had at least 765 00:42:56,200 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: one shot. That doesn't mean half the league is fully vaccinated, 766 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,719 Speaker 1: but as far as NFL rosters across the league are concerned, 767 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: over fifty percent of at at least one COVID vaccination shot, 768 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 1: which is certainly an improvement from where they were just 769 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 1: a few short weeks ago. So that's a good thing. 770 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 1: And they're gonna get the other shot well yeah, or 771 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 1: if they got the Johnson and Johnson they don't need 772 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,920 Speaker 1: another one. But yeah, So that's an encouraging sign. We 773 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 1: just got to wait and see where it goes from 774 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 1: here on out. Between now and the six weeks before 775 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 1: training camp begins break time for us. When we come 776 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 1: back Bills reporter Maddie Glab live from the sidelines at 777 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 1: mandatory minicamp practice. We'll get the update from her next 778 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 1: here on one Bills Live at a Steve Tasker who 779 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 1: has been all over the field unque he was kind 780 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 1: of a dual role player for you. See Steve a blimp. 781 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 1: We're not even in the strated here of normalcy. Welcome 782 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 1: to our number two one Bills Live, first day of 783 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 1: mandatory Mini camp here at one Bill's Drive, and without 784 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 1: any further ado, we go out to the practice field 785 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 1: where joining us is reporter Maddie Glab to give us 786 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 1: the lowdown on what's going down on the grass field. 787 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 1: And we can already hear the tunes. Maddie, what do 788 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 1: we got? Yeah, guys, I'm trying to get away. I 789 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 1: can fairly hear you. But as you can hear outside, 790 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,080 Speaker 1: we've got a lot of music going. Got the DJ's 791 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:51,320 Speaker 1: hearra practice today. So mini camp is in full go 792 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,960 Speaker 1: right now and I'm checking out the defensive lineman as 793 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,480 Speaker 1: we think. It's good to see Star back and a 794 00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,760 Speaker 1: part of this ronco. Good to see guys like Jerry 795 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:03,440 Speaker 1: back as well. The defensive line group is looking like 796 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 1: it has some depth, especially at that defensive end positions. 797 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,880 Speaker 1: Is there anybody at all who you can tell is 798 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 1: not at mandatory mini camps? I'm thinking it's one hundred 799 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:20,920 Speaker 1: percent participation here today. Sean mcderman was asked about a 800 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 1: couple of guys who would or would not be at 801 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,759 Speaker 1: training camp, and he said that Star was here. He 802 00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 1: said that Jerry was here. He said that Mario Addison 803 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 1: would be here. I was taking attendance and almost through 804 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,479 Speaker 1: the entire roster, but it looks like everybody is here 805 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: for the next three days at mini camp. We've got 806 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 1: a couple guys in red today. We've got Reggie gilliam 807 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: is in red, Zach Moss it's in red, Cody Ford 808 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 1: is in red, and Josh Thomas, the safety is also 809 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,279 Speaker 1: in red from what I can tell right now. All right, 810 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 1: so non contact jerseys for them. One guy who was 811 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 1: in a red non contact jersey at least early in 812 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:03,840 Speaker 1: the offseason workouts I believe was Isaiah Hodgens. So he 813 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,080 Speaker 1: is no longer in a red jersey? Is that correct? 814 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,279 Speaker 1: I believe? So I have not gotten to all the 815 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 1: wide receivers yet. Honestly, they're practicing far away from us today, 816 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 1: so I haven't gotten my eyes on Isaiah yet, but 817 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 1: I don't think he's in red because I pretty much 818 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,640 Speaker 1: pointed out all the Red Jersey's mind as your quarterback 819 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 1: and your special teamers. All right, So, Maddie, just curious 820 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 1: since you were on the call with Coach McDermott today. 821 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,000 Speaker 1: I know Steve and I we really weren't surprised when 822 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,440 Speaker 1: Coach said that Stars got some catching up to do. 823 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 1: He's been away from the team for over a year. 824 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 1: Even veteran players have to kind of reacclimate themselves to football. 825 00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 1: What did you make of Coach's comments on Star today? Yeah, 826 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:50,359 Speaker 1: I mean, of course, this guy's gonna take a couple 827 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,000 Speaker 1: of days to get reacclimated. And Sean McDermott said it's 828 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,720 Speaker 1: gonna go beyond these mini camp days for him getting 829 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:58,840 Speaker 1: back into it and used to playing with an NFL 830 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 1: team after opting opting out this past season. But one 831 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 1: thing that Sean said that I think it's good for 832 00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 1: us to remember is he said it's good that him 833 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 1: and Eric Washington are reunited. Eric Washington came from the 834 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers, so did Starlow to Lele. So it's nice 835 00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,800 Speaker 1: that they do have that connection and that Eric Washington 836 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,879 Speaker 1: does have crossed over with a couple players who came 837 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,240 Speaker 1: from the Carolina Panthers that are now on the Buffalo Bills, 838 00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:26,759 Speaker 1: so he's familiar with some of these players. Some of 839 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 1: these players are familiar with what type of scheme he 840 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 1: likes to run and just how he likes to coach 841 00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:33,319 Speaker 1: up his defensive line. So I think that's one thing 842 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,759 Speaker 1: that will make Star feel a little bit more comfortable 843 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,399 Speaker 1: as he moves into getting adjusted and getting back in 844 00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:42,279 Speaker 1: with the defensive line. Oh, Maddie, you've been. You've seen 845 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,880 Speaker 1: Starlow too, lal for the you know, before he opted 846 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,680 Speaker 1: out before this last year. Now he's back in and 847 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 1: there was a lot of talk when they saw the 848 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 1: workout videos that he didn't look as thick as we 849 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:54,759 Speaker 1: remember him looking. What do you think? What is your 850 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 1: sense you've the first time he laid eyes on him 851 00:47:57,520 --> 00:47:59,359 Speaker 1: after he'd been gone, and you remember what he looked 852 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: like on the practice field two years ago. Do you 853 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: notice any change at all in his build? Yeah, looking 854 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,359 Speaker 1: at him today, he definitely does look a little bit 855 00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 1: skinnier and slimmer. He's someone who was a shase eater 856 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 1: at that defensive tackle position and he looks slim down. 857 00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:18,880 Speaker 1: All the interesting to sea how he fits into that 858 00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:20,960 Speaker 1: role with a slimmer body. I don't know if this 859 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 1: is something that the coaching staff who wanted him to 860 00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:25,799 Speaker 1: do or something that he did on his own during 861 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,960 Speaker 1: this past year training on his own, but yeah, this 862 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 1: is someone that the defensive line missed this past season. 863 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,440 Speaker 1: They missed his presence at Oliver had to take up 864 00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:38,319 Speaker 1: a lot of his responsibilities. So it'll be great to 865 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 1: have him back on this roster and helping with the 866 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,439 Speaker 1: interior of that defensive line because that time that's where 867 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 1: the defensive line needed the most. Hell Black season, Maddie, 868 00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 1: Let's move on to cornerbacks. I know you asked a 869 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 1: question of coach McDermott about cornerbacks today and I thought 870 00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:58,760 Speaker 1: he had a very interesting answer in terms of being 871 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 1: able to get a good evaluation on young cornerbacks because 872 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 1: of their veteran receivers they're gonna have to face in 873 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 1: practice this week and in training camps. Yeah, it's nice 874 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 1: that we have such a talented wide receiver corps, right, 875 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 1: the young cornerbacks, Welcome to the NFL. You're gonna go 876 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:22,319 Speaker 1: up against guys like Stefan Biggs, Colby's Lea Gabriel Day 877 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 1: that Emmanuel standards no big deal. So it'll be interesting 878 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:28,560 Speaker 1: to see some of these younger corners who we have 879 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 1: on our roster right now, how they are able to 880 00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:34,759 Speaker 1: go up against some of the most talented receivers in 881 00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 1: the NFL. And let alone also see guys like Levi Wallace, 882 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:41,680 Speaker 1: Dame Jackson and Sean mcderham. Would ask about those two 883 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:44,719 Speaker 1: in particular and the competition that could be heating up 884 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 1: between those two as we do mini camps and then 885 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,719 Speaker 1: head into training camp. Those are two players that had 886 00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 1: same time last year. Of course Levi Wallace had more 887 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 1: and earned that starting position, but Leievi I was hurt 888 00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:59,720 Speaker 1: a little bit last year. Dame Jackson came in played 889 00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 1: and games had that one intersection And I spoke about 890 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 1: this earlier on some videos that will be released as 891 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,960 Speaker 1: we count down to training camp. And he's someone who 892 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,040 Speaker 1: has a lot of potential and someone who the Zill's 893 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:14,319 Speaker 1: fan base is excited about. Dane Jackson just the youth 894 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:17,279 Speaker 1: and what he has to offer in those instincts when 895 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:19,600 Speaker 1: he's on the field. And as we you know, as 896 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 1: we moved down the list and you see the corners, 897 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:24,360 Speaker 1: we went to defensive back. What about those guys that 898 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:28,440 Speaker 1: are gonna run the football, the running backs? You know, 899 00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:31,759 Speaker 1: you mentioned Zach Moss is in a red jersey. Still, 900 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:33,480 Speaker 1: he was in a red jersey, has been since the 901 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,960 Speaker 1: beginning of the OTAs. What about the running backs at 902 00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:39,840 Speaker 1: the other end of the field, where you know, Zack Moss, 903 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:42,919 Speaker 1: Devin Singletary and Matt Brita who were getting a look 904 00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:47,320 Speaker 1: at for the first time. Yeah, Zack Mosso, Zack Monstering 905 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:49,680 Speaker 1: OT eight guys. He really didn't see him at all 906 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:51,880 Speaker 1: on the field. He was off to the side doing 907 00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 1: some field work. He's actually on the bike right now, 908 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:57,840 Speaker 1: so hoping that we do get to see him do 909 00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,319 Speaker 1: a little bit more. During Mini camp, Sean McDermid said 910 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 1: he would do some field work during the next three days. 911 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 1: Of course, he left the season early and had an 912 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 1: ankle injury having its surgery, but Sean mcdermant has commented 913 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:13,880 Speaker 1: on just how well he has taken to doing all 914 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 1: the rehab. He spent a lot of the off season 915 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: in Buffalo to focus on rehabbing back from that ankle injury. 916 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,960 Speaker 1: I think that speaks to his maturation at an early 917 00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:24,799 Speaker 1: age in the NFL. So hoping we get to see 918 00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 1: a look at him because I don't feel like he 919 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:29,920 Speaker 1: got he got a true first season in the NFL 920 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 1: after leaving it early because of that injury. And then 921 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:36,160 Speaker 1: Devin Singletarry. Sean mcderman also commented on Devin Singletarry and 922 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:38,600 Speaker 1: the work that he's been doing this off season to 923 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:40,920 Speaker 1: just be a better running back as a whole, that 924 00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 1: he really likes what he's been able to do and 925 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:46,440 Speaker 1: bring back to the practice field here. It's obvious that 926 00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 1: you can see in his body makeup that this guy 927 00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:52,279 Speaker 1: has spent some time in the weight room with how 928 00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:55,000 Speaker 1: he's looking now. And then of course you have Matt Breta, 929 00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 1: a veteran running back who had some success with the 930 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:01,800 Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine ers, not necessarily with my Miami Dolphins. 931 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:04,359 Speaker 1: He got beat out. But this is a running back 932 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 1: group that we could rotate through. Sean McDermott and Brandon 933 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 1: Bean do not like the idea of a feature back, 934 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:13,879 Speaker 1: at least when they're asked about it by media. They 935 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,880 Speaker 1: look at it more as a running back by committee 936 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 1: type of situation, and Brian Daball had said, you know, 937 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,279 Speaker 1: the guy who's behind Josh Allen is the guy who's 938 00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 1: playing best at that point. So it'll be cool to 939 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:28,440 Speaker 1: see hopefully these three as Zack moss Is is going 940 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 1: to do some field work. I'm excited to see how 941 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 1: the three of them share the ball and how the 942 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,400 Speaker 1: three of them look when they do get some time together, 943 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,200 Speaker 1: whether that's an eleven or eleven even, or whether that's 944 00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: the individual drills this week. And I know we're scheduled 945 00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 1: to hear from Josh Allen later today. I know the 946 00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 1: Blue Jays and the Bills announced that he'll be throwing 947 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 1: out the first pitch at Thursday night's game at Silin Field. 948 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:58,360 Speaker 1: And he was a high school pitcher. Maddie, what are we? 949 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:01,360 Speaker 1: Ste and I were trying to guess what he was 950 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:04,840 Speaker 1: gonna hit on the gun. You know, when he throws 951 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:07,560 Speaker 1: out the first pitch, does he throw a ceremonial toss 952 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:12,560 Speaker 1: or are you anticipating him throwing a heater? I would 953 00:53:12,560 --> 00:53:15,360 Speaker 1: love to see him throw a heater, but I think 954 00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 1: he's just gonna throw more of a ceremonial talk. This 955 00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:24,000 Speaker 1: guy doesn't want to put any potential out there to 956 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:27,359 Speaker 1: hurt his arm with throwing a heater, but I'm sure 957 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:31,439 Speaker 1: if he did, it would be a strike down the middle. Yeah, 958 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:33,359 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be more of a of a 959 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 1: chill first pitch. He doesn't want to wear out that 960 00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:38,320 Speaker 1: arm too much before the team. Here's my question, is 961 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:40,480 Speaker 1: it more important that we see him through ninety mile 962 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:46,480 Speaker 1: an hour or throw a strike? You know, as a 963 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:50,160 Speaker 1: former softball player myself, I would love to see him 964 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:53,840 Speaker 1: throw that ninety mile pro hour pitch, but a strike 965 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 1: if I'm playing defense. There you go, all right, Maddie, 966 00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 1: Well listen, we appreciate you bringing us up to speed 967 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 1: here on what's going out out there on the practice field. 968 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:05,840 Speaker 1: We know that we can look forward to your reports 969 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: afterwards as well, So thanks very much for the time. Yeah, 970 00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:12,600 Speaker 1: of course, guys, have a good show. Thanks Mattie. So 971 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:16,520 Speaker 1: Maddie's reports along with Dante Lasting, he was helping us 972 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:19,760 Speaker 1: out with coverage out there as well. Their their coverage 973 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,239 Speaker 1: will be up on Buffalo bills dot com later today. 974 00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:24,879 Speaker 1: We like all the other media outlets on we were 975 00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:27,000 Speaker 1: no different than they are in a lot of respects. 976 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,359 Speaker 1: We're limited as to what we can show on our 977 00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:34,080 Speaker 1: screen and also talk about. And it just when you 978 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,120 Speaker 1: when you start seeing these guys get out there and 979 00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 1: start practicing, you realize immediately how much work they've got 980 00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:44,200 Speaker 1: to do. Like we're talking about the running backs. Zach 981 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:46,600 Speaker 1: Moss is in a red jersey, got Brita. You got 982 00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:50,480 Speaker 1: Taiwan Jones, who's a you know, uh, special teams guy, right, 983 00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:52,600 Speaker 1: and he was active for every single game and when 984 00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: he was healthy, he was active. So there's only three 985 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 1: running backs on a on a week a week or 986 00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:01,880 Speaker 1: that are active. It was Moss, single Arry, Taiwan Jones, 987 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 1: and every once in a while with if Moss or 988 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:09,239 Speaker 1: single Arry were hurt t J Yelden. Yeah, So what's 989 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 1: it gonna be? Is it gonna be Moss and single 990 00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 1: Arry or Moss and Brita or Brita and single Arry, 991 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 1: you know, I mean and and Jones obviously Taiwan Jones 992 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 1: for special teams. That's that's interesting. And if they carry 993 00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:25,239 Speaker 1: all four of those guys or all three of those 994 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 1: guys that are on offense and the special teams guy, 995 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:31,000 Speaker 1: all right, now you got four or are you pulling 996 00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: up only five wide outs instead of sake a tight end. 997 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:35,799 Speaker 1: Are you taking a tight end off the list because 998 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:39,920 Speaker 1: there's no fullback. It's a really interesting question. That's kind 999 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,440 Speaker 1: of the nuance of what we would find out if 1000 00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:46,640 Speaker 1: we could watch him practice. You know, yeah, I don't 1001 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,520 Speaker 1: know that we could say anything about that though, but 1002 00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:52,080 Speaker 1: that's another story for another day. Right as we see 1003 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:54,879 Speaker 1: Zach Moss actually in the background in the red non 1004 00:55:54,920 --> 00:56:00,279 Speaker 1: contact jersey, but encouraging that, coach McDermott said Zach will 1005 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:05,080 Speaker 1: get some measure of field work this week. No word 1006 00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:06,960 Speaker 1: as to whether it's going to take place within the 1007 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:11,399 Speaker 1: scope of a team segment in practice, but that's good news. 1008 00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:14,960 Speaker 1: And we also saw Isaiah Hodgens out there no longer 1009 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:18,840 Speaker 1: in a red non contact jersey, so that's an exciting 1010 00:56:18,880 --> 00:56:22,719 Speaker 1: development there, which means he's one step closer to and 1011 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:27,640 Speaker 1: it's very very likely, you know, completely good to go. Yeah, 1012 00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:30,360 Speaker 1: Hodgens where number sixteen, you see, you get used to it, 1013 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:33,920 Speaker 1: you got to remember. And also another guy, Kumero, changed 1014 00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:37,400 Speaker 1: jerseys as well. He was eighty four last year and 1015 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:42,320 Speaker 1: now he's number fifteen, so he gotta get used to 1016 00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:44,799 Speaker 1: calling these guys by the right, by the right name 1017 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,759 Speaker 1: and number, getting recognizing him also breed as number twenty two, 1018 00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 1: Fred Jackson's old number. Yeah, so that'll be maybe it'll 1019 00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:52,920 Speaker 1: be easier for people to get a handle on that 1020 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: when they think about that. The defensive ends Jerry Hughes, 1021 00:56:57,239 --> 00:57:01,840 Speaker 1: Mario Addison back here for mandatory camp, participating in practice. 1022 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 1: I gotta wonder what it's like when Jerry Hughes meets 1023 00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:07,879 Speaker 1: Greg Rousseau for the first time and shakes his hand 1024 00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:10,399 Speaker 1: and almost hurts his neck looking up at him. Right, 1025 00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:14,520 Speaker 1: Jerry Hugheses, Jerry goes six two. He's more like a 1026 00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 1: Jerry Hughes like I'm von Miller, h kind of pass rusher. Yes, 1027 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:23,880 Speaker 1: um compact right, and another guy get the shoulder, the 1028 00:57:23,920 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 1: guy from Indianapolis. A couple of guys from Indianapolis. Dwight 1029 00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 1: Freene he was a teammated Dwight Freeness a rookie, and 1030 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 1: Robert Robert Mathis those two. All those guys are like 1031 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:37,160 Speaker 1: six two six one six two, and you know those 1032 00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:40,040 Speaker 1: fast play with very great leverage, getting low and bend 1033 00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:44,400 Speaker 1: and all that. You know, that's not Rousseau, right, he 1034 00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:47,040 Speaker 1: can kind of bend it, but he's gonna swim. He's 1035 00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:49,360 Speaker 1: gonna swim and go over that. He can't get underneath, guys, 1036 00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:52,080 Speaker 1: he's just too long, so he's gotta, you know, use 1037 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 1: different techniques to get around the corner. I will say 1038 00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:58,120 Speaker 1: when he lines up inside, he's got a great swim move, 1039 00:57:58,120 --> 00:58:00,480 Speaker 1: which you would anticipate for a taller player him. But 1040 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:05,120 Speaker 1: he also has a move where he gets very skinny 1041 00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:08,400 Speaker 1: and slides between the splits of the line. It's like 1042 00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 1: a rip move where you drop this do you drop 1043 00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:13,680 Speaker 1: the inside shoulder and turn your kind of run forward 1044 00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:15,440 Speaker 1: but turn your back to the defender and kind of 1045 00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,439 Speaker 1: slipped through like you're like you're going through a door 1046 00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:20,040 Speaker 1: that's closing. He's got a good, get skinny move. Yeah. 1047 00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 1: And and for his length, it looks like it fits 1048 00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:24,760 Speaker 1: him pretty well too, you know, because but you know 1049 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:27,800 Speaker 1: he's still two hundred and sixty. And that's the thing 1050 00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:30,320 Speaker 1: too with his length, because once he can get skinny 1051 00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:32,800 Speaker 1: and step through, I mean one stride for him, he's 1052 00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:35,120 Speaker 1: two yards in the backfield already, he's already buy you 1053 00:58:35,280 --> 00:58:37,400 Speaker 1: a half a stride. Plus his arm length, he can 1054 00:58:37,400 --> 00:58:41,560 Speaker 1: reach the quarterback or get his arm up. Yeah. That 1055 00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:44,640 Speaker 1: and when you go a quarterback feels it as much 1056 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:46,720 Speaker 1: as he sees it. He almost feels it. You know, 1057 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:50,040 Speaker 1: he can hear the hear the movement coming you. Those 1058 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:53,160 Speaker 1: quarterbacks feel that stuff. That's a problem for a lot 1059 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 1: of those guys, particularly young quarterbacks like Twa mac Jones 1060 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:01,760 Speaker 1: and Zach Wilson in this division. Young guys kind of 1061 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:03,880 Speaker 1: feel that stuff in the pocket. A guy like Rousseau, 1062 00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:06,600 Speaker 1: you feel it when he's still a long way away. Yeah. 1063 00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:10,680 Speaker 1: And le Jordan Poyer, who addressed the media in the 1064 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:14,520 Speaker 1: last round to OTAs in an interview, he's over the 1065 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:17,080 Speaker 1: moon about a guy like Rousseau. He's convinced that that's 1066 00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:21,920 Speaker 1: going to give them more opportunities at football's because he 1067 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 1: thinks he's gonna be batting a lot of passes up 1068 00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:26,000 Speaker 1: in the air right getting him tipped into the secondary. 1069 00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:29,800 Speaker 1: You think about it stepping up, there's like Zach Wilson, 1070 00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:33,080 Speaker 1: smaller quarterback, or Tua stepping up, getting behind the line 1071 00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:36,400 Speaker 1: and getting under center. And Rousseau's on the nose as 1072 00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:39,240 Speaker 1: they stand around before the pre snap. Right behind him 1073 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 1: is Tremaane. Yeah, it's like a it's like a character 1074 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 1: like a cane spider backed up by a grand Dad, 1075 00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:51,480 Speaker 1: Like I'm praying mantis, you know. I mean, he's huge, 1076 00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:55,640 Speaker 1: alien looking dude. It's just huge. I mean, just they're 1077 00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,520 Speaker 1: like I'm telling you, they're like circus freaks. They're so big. Yeah, 1078 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 1: and Zach Will coming up and can you imagine that 1079 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,120 Speaker 1: when he steps up to there and just it's gonna 1080 01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:07,200 Speaker 1: be like I gotta throw a round and over these guys. 1081 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:13,400 Speaker 1: I mean, that's it's just it's comical. I mean, it's 1082 01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:18,480 Speaker 1: almost comical how big Rousseau and Tremaine are, Spencer Brown 1083 01:00:18,520 --> 01:00:20,840 Speaker 1: and these guys. You know, it's just it's an amazing 1084 01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 1: it's gonna and it really does have I think, and 1085 01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:25,840 Speaker 1: maybe it's me talking like a little guy again a 1086 01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 1: little bit of a subliminal effect on Oh yeah, your 1087 01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:31,240 Speaker 1: your pre snaps and all of that. We have to 1088 01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:32,920 Speaker 1: take a break here, but when we come back, more 1089 01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:35,200 Speaker 1: of your phone calls at eight three five fifty Who 1090 01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:38,440 Speaker 1: is your X factor on offense and on defense for 1091 01:00:38,440 --> 01:00:41,360 Speaker 1: the Bills in twenty twenty one Open line for you 1092 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:44,240 Speaker 1: at eight three five fifty one eighty eight five fifty 1093 01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:46,760 Speaker 1: two five fifty.

While we are covering the first day 1096 01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:08,960 Speaker 1: of mandatory minicamp here in Buffalo, there is also mandatory 1097 01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:12,520 Speaker 1: minicamp elsewhere in the division, namely down in Miami and 1098 01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:15,880 Speaker 1: in New England. I'll handle the Miami side of the 1099 01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:19,560 Speaker 1: Ledger here Steve will handle New England. But I do 1100 01:01:19,680 --> 01:01:23,360 Speaker 1: have this on a verified Twitter account. Joe Shadd, who 1101 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:27,040 Speaker 1: covers the Dolphins for the Palm Beach Post, is reporting 1102 01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:31,520 Speaker 1: that Tua Tonga Voloa has thrown five interceptions on the 1103 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:35,760 Speaker 1: first day of Dolphins Mini camp. Now it should be noted, 1104 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:39,600 Speaker 1: as he says on Twitter, they are practicing in torrential rains. 1105 01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:43,120 Speaker 1: But in a fifteen minute period, TWA went from three 1106 01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:47,320 Speaker 1: interceptions to four to five on day one of mandatory 1107 01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:52,560 Speaker 1: mini camp. Yeah, and nikes And then from New England 1108 01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:55,600 Speaker 1: gets better in New England, New England, Phil Perry, and 1109 01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:59,880 Speaker 1: then it was retweeted by Tom E. Curran. Patriots began 1110 01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 1: fast tracking mac Jones today. They bumped his reps up 1111 01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:05,320 Speaker 1: and the first competitive seven on seven is reported that 1112 01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:09,640 Speaker 1: uh mac Jones got six reps. Cam Newton only got two, 1113 01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 1: even though he was up first for the first two reps. 1114 01:02:12,560 --> 01:02:15,600 Speaker 1: Second on the eleven on eleven period, Jones got seven reps. 1115 01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 1: Newton still only got two because we all saw the 1116 01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:23,400 Speaker 1: footage of Cam Newton trying to throw yesterday cannot complete 1117 01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:26,520 Speaker 1: routes on air. It was he can't throw. He is 1118 01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:29,919 Speaker 1: not starting material. I've said it for months. If last 1119 01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,040 Speaker 1: year didn't convince anybody, why do we think a year 1120 01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:35,520 Speaker 1: later he's going to be better. Yeah, well it was. 1121 01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:41,800 Speaker 1: It was also reported earlier that Cam you know, was, yeah, 1122 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:44,880 Speaker 1: he was not completing a high percentage of passes and 1123 01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 1: he was overthrown guys and wasn't Yeah, this and the 1124 01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:52,680 Speaker 1: same guy, Phil Phil Perry reports that Newton was six 1125 01:02:52,760 --> 01:02:57,040 Speaker 1: for thirteen, four of those and four more reps that 1126 01:02:57,040 --> 01:03:01,240 Speaker 1: would have resulted in sacks. Jones was sixteen for twenty three, 1127 01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:04,520 Speaker 1: which is pretty respectable. Probably only took one sack, and 1128 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 1: he had two interceptions, one to two linebackers. High Tower 1129 01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:12,200 Speaker 1: and van noy uh Stidham was four of seven in 1130 01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:18,880 Speaker 1: his rips. Um, it's already happening. It's just so much, 1131 01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:22,320 Speaker 1: and who knows what they're working on, And you're right, 1132 01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:25,680 Speaker 1: Miami's in a driving rainstorm. Who you know? You can't 1133 01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:30,280 Speaker 1: throw that, but man oh man, yeah, that the and 1134 01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 1: liked seeing it and it's so delicious because Twitter is 1135 01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:37,200 Speaker 1: the perfect thing for all this stuff to come out, 1136 01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:40,840 Speaker 1: because people pile on like nobody's business and they fake 1137 01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:46,280 Speaker 1: accounts are being created. There's more, Oh once again Joe 1138 01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:49,760 Speaker 1: Shad from Palm each post. Tah has five picks. His 1139 01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 1: backup Jacoby Brisette has two for a total of seven 1140 01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:58,680 Speaker 1: interceptions today at Dolphins minicamp man Alive. It is hard 1141 01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:01,360 Speaker 1: to throw seven picks in one practice? Should we should 1142 01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:05,240 Speaker 1: we talk about seven? Should we? Should we talk about 1143 01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 1: outstanding defensive play in the NFL? Real quick? We always 1144 01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:10,760 Speaker 1: know the defense is typically ahead of the offense early 1145 01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:13,000 Speaker 1: in training camp. It's probably no different in mini camp. 1146 01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:15,920 Speaker 1: But seven is a lot. One of our future guests 1147 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:17,960 Speaker 1: wonder how the play calling is going down there with 1148 01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:20,760 Speaker 1: George Godse and Eric Steutisville. Are they wrestling the play 1149 01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:24,440 Speaker 1: call sheet away from one another? Here? Has that happened yet? 1150 01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:27,840 Speaker 1: Think about that? How that got Dalton Miller, who's one 1151 01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:30,000 Speaker 1: of the guys we're gonna try and get on the 1152 01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:34,160 Speaker 1: show this week. They got some some rankings out and 1153 01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:37,480 Speaker 1: they came out with the top five cornerback duos. You know, 1154 01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:41,480 Speaker 1: both cornerbacks, quarterback one, cornerback two, and they go in 1155 01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:44,280 Speaker 1: this order. Number number five was Denver, number four was 1156 01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:47,120 Speaker 1: New England, number three was Baltimore, number two was the Rams, 1157 01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:49,880 Speaker 1: and number one was the Dolphins. So you can imagine 1158 01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:53,640 Speaker 1: TWA having some struggles down there. Would you like to 1159 01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:56,800 Speaker 1: know what Josh, because Josh Allen, just so happens, played 1160 01:04:56,880 --> 01:05:00,160 Speaker 1: all of those duos last year, played against all of 1161 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:03,240 Speaker 1: those past defenses. Correct. I would love to hear the numbers, 1162 01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:06,960 Speaker 1: Steve Josh Allen in total. Now he played Miami twice, 1163 01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:11,120 Speaker 1: New England twice, and then once each the Rams, the Ravens, 1164 01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 1: and Din for the Rams. The Ravens was his playoff 1165 01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:16,120 Speaker 1: game in fact, okay, so when those let's see it 1166 01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 1: was a two four, five six seven games. Seven games. 1167 01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:22,760 Speaker 1: Josh Allen was one sixty two of two twenty four, 1168 01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 1: completed seventy two percent of his passes, had eighteen touchdowns 1169 01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 1: three interceptions. Yeah, that's pretty good. I'll take that. Yeah, Josh, 1170 01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:36,919 Speaker 1: Josh lit him up some of the top ten pass 1171 01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:39,400 Speaker 1: defenses in the league. Yeah, he had works for me. 1172 01:05:39,600 --> 01:05:44,040 Speaker 1: He had a three hundred yard game against Miami or 1173 01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:46,160 Speaker 1: New England. Three hundred yard game against New England. He 1174 01:05:46,200 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 1: had a four hundred yard game against Miami. The number 1175 01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:51,560 Speaker 1: one duo tandem. He had seven touchdowns and one interception 1176 01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:56,920 Speaker 1: against Miami, and he also had six hundred and thirty 1177 01:05:57,040 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 1: nine yards passing in the two games against the best 1178 01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:02,440 Speaker 1: cornerback due it's the Who's Your Daddy game and he 1179 01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:07,040 Speaker 1: only played half of the second game. This is true. Yeah, 1180 01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:09,840 Speaker 1: this is Who's your Daddy game? That's what it is. 1181 01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:12,760 Speaker 1: Josh owns those dudes, he really does. And the only game, 1182 01:06:12,840 --> 01:06:14,600 Speaker 1: the games he really struggled in was the first meeting 1183 01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:16,480 Speaker 1: of New England, when the Bills ran the ball all 1184 01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 1: the time. He only had it. He only threw it 1185 01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:20,680 Speaker 1: eighteen times, was eleven of eighteen for one hundred and 1186 01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:24,080 Speaker 1: fifty four yards and only had had the interception in 1187 01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:27,720 Speaker 1: that game. Yeah. The other game, however, the Monday Night game, 1188 01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:30,040 Speaker 1: he was twenty seven of thirty six for three twenty 1189 01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:33,160 Speaker 1: and forty d's in the Steph Diggs game. My favorite 1190 01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:34,760 Speaker 1: game of the thing. That was. Yeah, that was a 1191 01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:37,680 Speaker 1: pretty delicious game. The favorite game of the year for me, 1192 01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:40,120 Speaker 1: It's not even close. That was when Bill Belichick did 1193 01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:42,720 Speaker 1: everything but genuflect to Sean McDermott after the game, and 1194 01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 1: he really he gave him a hug and whispered to 1195 01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:48,520 Speaker 1: his ear said, man, you beat us good. He's just good. 1196 01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:50,840 Speaker 1: Eight oh three oh five fifty the number to get 1197 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:52,920 Speaker 1: on board. As we're asking you, who is the X 1198 01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:56,160 Speaker 1: factor on offense and defense for the Bills In twenty 1199 01:06:56,280 --> 01:06:59,680 Speaker 1: twenty one, we go to the phones to Bobby and Lancaster. Bobby, 1200 01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:02,120 Speaker 1: what do you have? Can you hear me out? Guys, 1201 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:05,600 Speaker 1: Yes we can. Okay, it's been a couple of weeks. 1202 01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:08,040 Speaker 1: Good to talk is again? All right? I know Stevie's 1203 01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:11,160 Speaker 1: gonna agree with me on this one. I'm going looking 1204 01:07:11,240 --> 01:07:15,320 Speaker 1: up and down our roster with Casey's roster, and besides 1205 01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:19,040 Speaker 1: Allen and Mahomes, I would take our roster over their roster. So, 1206 01:07:19,200 --> 01:07:22,520 Speaker 1: my guy, our X factors on offense, believe it or not, 1207 01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:26,000 Speaker 1: would be Josh Allen. Reason being hearing me out, This 1208 01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 1: is why Josh Allen was the best player in football 1209 01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:30,920 Speaker 1: the second half of last year. Without a doubt, he 1210 01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:33,880 Speaker 1: was killing it. He made the difference. Well, we got 1211 01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:36,760 Speaker 1: to the playoffs, tailed off a little bit, especially in 1212 01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:40,960 Speaker 1: the championship game, twenty thousand people there, he had a 1213 01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:44,960 Speaker 1: social game at best. So I believe as we all 1214 01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:47,800 Speaker 1: sit here with our jaws dropping when Jordan Palmer said 1215 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:50,760 Speaker 1: he has no ceiling. If you guys remember that, yeah, 1216 01:07:50,800 --> 01:07:52,760 Speaker 1: we all, we all are kind of giddy there, and 1217 01:07:52,840 --> 01:07:55,240 Speaker 1: I believe Josh will take that step. He is our 1218 01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:58,440 Speaker 1: X factor because all said here with the four whiteouts, 1219 01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:02,200 Speaker 1: the running backs, Hollister now tight ends. We got weapons everywhere. 1220 01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:05,919 Speaker 1: It's Josh's team, it's on his shoulders, and as good 1221 01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:09,360 Speaker 1: as he was last year, he needs to take that 1222 01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:11,600 Speaker 1: little bit extra step to be a little bit better 1223 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:14,520 Speaker 1: of the halts. That's it. On offense. Now, offense, it's 1224 01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:17,799 Speaker 1: not our problem. Hear me, give me thirty seconds the defense. 1225 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:22,200 Speaker 1: I trust McDermott and Dean to watch my grandkids overnight. 1226 01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:24,720 Speaker 1: That's how much I trust these two guys. They know 1227 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:27,920 Speaker 1: our problem is inside with a pass rush up the middle. 1228 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:29,880 Speaker 1: A couple of weeks ago, I told you guys to 1229 01:08:30,120 --> 01:08:32,719 Speaker 1: let go of one of our pressler of offensive linemen 1230 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:36,320 Speaker 1: and a draft choice and get the iron head Hayward's 1231 01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:39,040 Speaker 1: kid who was Cam Haywood, or he keep Hicks. There's 1232 01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:41,320 Speaker 1: another one out there, and we have a little history 1233 01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:47,800 Speaker 1: with the coach in Washington for his name is Okay, 1234 01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:49,519 Speaker 1: we have a little history. Yep, we have a history 1235 01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:52,200 Speaker 1: of him. Maybe we can get I believe his name is. 1236 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:54,799 Speaker 1: They know his last name is Paine b Rob Payne. 1237 01:08:54,880 --> 01:08:57,719 Speaker 1: Kid's only twenty four years old. He's a monster, played 1238 01:08:57,760 --> 01:09:00,960 Speaker 1: for Alabama. You put him, it's almost like getting two 1239 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:03,960 Speaker 1: picks because you're gonna make an Oliver that much better 1240 01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:07,000 Speaker 1: at Oliver would be my defensive X factor. So what 1241 01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:10,320 Speaker 1: you're looking at, I'm telling you guys, I trust these 1242 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:13,519 Speaker 1: these two guys, McDermott and Being they're going after a 1243 01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:17,200 Speaker 1: defensive alignement. When they moved that money for Dikes, when 1244 01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:20,240 Speaker 1: they moved his money to me, it was to eventually 1245 01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:24,080 Speaker 1: get a difference maker on the defensive line. Inside, we 1246 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:27,200 Speaker 1: got all the defensive ends you need with the two 1247 01:09:27,280 --> 01:09:30,639 Speaker 1: draft choices, with you know these guys coming along even 1248 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:34,160 Speaker 1: though Obada and Epinas, so we got enough. We need 1249 01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:36,920 Speaker 1: it inside because you're sure, you're still not sure what 1250 01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:39,320 Speaker 1: you're getting from Styledo. I believe he'll be a good 1251 01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:42,519 Speaker 1: in the rotation, be Twine, but I need that dominant 1252 01:09:42,520 --> 01:09:45,240 Speaker 1: guy next to Eddie Oliver to push the mental and 1253 01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:48,519 Speaker 1: make it uncomfortable for every quarterback. That's how we're gonna 1254 01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:52,040 Speaker 1: get to Mahomes. So my X factor Josh Allen as 1255 01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:54,439 Speaker 1: well as he played, but he has to take that 1256 01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:59,320 Speaker 1: little extra step that what's his name? The quarterback coach 1257 01:09:59,400 --> 01:10:02,320 Speaker 1: told us that he would no ceiling give it to 1258 01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:06,160 Speaker 1: Josh because everywhere else we're fine. We got so many weapons. 1259 01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:09,439 Speaker 1: Offense is not the problem. It's the middle of the defense. 1260 01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:12,639 Speaker 1: And being a mcdermick know that I believe that they 1261 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:15,200 Speaker 1: are going to get a big boy in the middle, 1262 01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:17,840 Speaker 1: and Payne would be the one because he's young and 1263 01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:20,200 Speaker 1: he's probably cheaper. Even if you got to pay him. 1264 01:10:20,200 --> 01:10:23,280 Speaker 1: You cleared some money with Dick. Pay him. But maybe 1265 01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:25,360 Speaker 1: halfway through the season the Steelers are having a bad 1266 01:10:25,439 --> 01:10:28,720 Speaker 1: year and we can get you know, Cameron Haywood. It's 1267 01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:31,479 Speaker 1: a possible build. Here's the deal, though you guys laughed 1268 01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:33,040 Speaker 1: at me and said, well, you're not gonna get a 1269 01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:35,719 Speaker 1: first round. It would be like a third or fourth 1270 01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:38,280 Speaker 1: rounder and one of these plethora of offensive linemans, whether 1271 01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:40,160 Speaker 1: it be bod or even Cody Ford. I would give 1272 01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:43,479 Speaker 1: up because we got so many. But here it is 1273 01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:47,320 Speaker 1: this guy Spencer Brown. He is going to be a 1274 01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:50,680 Speaker 1: home run hitter. So we got enough offensive lineman, get 1275 01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:53,040 Speaker 1: rid of an offensive lineman, give up a crash. It 1276 01:10:53,040 --> 01:10:54,960 Speaker 1: has to be more than a third rounder, because you 1277 01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:57,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't give up at Oliver for a third round pick. 1278 01:10:57,200 --> 01:10:59,680 Speaker 1: They're not going to give up iron Head Hayward's kid 1279 01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:03,320 Speaker 1: for a third all right, all right, I got you. 1280 01:11:03,600 --> 01:11:06,160 Speaker 1: I got you, So you think, yeah, I appreciate it, 1281 01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:08,720 Speaker 1: And yeah, Josh Allen's the X factor on offense. Okay, 1282 01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:11,559 Speaker 1: he's gott He's not the A factor. He's not the 1283 01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:14,280 Speaker 1: X fact, but I get it. Yeah, he's I he's 1284 01:11:14,320 --> 01:11:16,599 Speaker 1: got it in him to take another step, although if 1285 01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:18,519 Speaker 1: he takes a step the size he did last year, 1286 01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:22,120 Speaker 1: I don't know that I've ever seen a quarterback year, 1287 01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:26,200 Speaker 1: so I don't think that's possible. But okay, Um, the 1288 01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:29,960 Speaker 1: other side of the thing with uh, the X factor 1289 01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:34,559 Speaker 1: being who do heself? At Oliver? Maybe? And you're right, 1290 01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:37,519 Speaker 1: I think there's no question. Sean McDermott and Brandon Bean 1291 01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:41,639 Speaker 1: made a concerted effort to get bigger upfront on both 1292 01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:44,240 Speaker 1: sides of the ball to start trying to dominate that 1293 01:11:44,360 --> 01:11:46,160 Speaker 1: side of the line of scrimmage. It was a bad 1294 01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:48,120 Speaker 1: year to try and get size in the middle of 1295 01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:50,760 Speaker 1: year defense in the In the draft, there just weren't 1296 01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:54,519 Speaker 1: any quality players. There weren't big, strong athletes like the 1297 01:11:54,680 --> 01:11:57,720 Speaker 1: like the quality of Starlot lela Um. There weren't any 1298 01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:00,360 Speaker 1: of those guys in this draft. So, uh, if they 1299 01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:03,080 Speaker 1: wanted to do that, He's right, you'd have to trade 1300 01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:05,880 Speaker 1: for the guy and do it. And and I like 1301 01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:08,640 Speaker 1: where he's going with Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh's gonna realize aam got 1302 01:12:08,680 --> 01:12:12,000 Speaker 1: an offensive line to give Ben Roethlisberger anytime, or to 1303 01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:15,080 Speaker 1: give their new shining running back Naji Harris anytime. Buffalo 1304 01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:17,760 Speaker 1: has got a stable full of guys who can play. 1305 01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:19,880 Speaker 1: If you could package a couple of guys who may 1306 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:23,880 Speaker 1: not make your team up, give him to pittsburgh S 1307 01:12:23,880 --> 01:12:29,720 Speaker 1: teeters and get a guy down inside, like Heyward, Yeah, 1308 01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:34,280 Speaker 1: I'm all for that, right, And people were, you know, 1309 01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:36,000 Speaker 1: when they cleared the cap space, They're like, Oh, the 1310 01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:38,759 Speaker 1: deal's gonna happen. The deal's gonna happen. I think Brandon 1311 01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:41,439 Speaker 1: Bean's biding his time here. He's gonna see how his 1312 01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:44,400 Speaker 1: roster shakes out. Right, who's gonna be on it? Who's 1313 01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:46,439 Speaker 1: probably not going to be on it, and he may 1314 01:12:46,479 --> 01:12:48,320 Speaker 1: not even have to call anybody. The phone might be 1315 01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:51,800 Speaker 1: ringing once you get through a couple of preseason games, 1316 01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:54,080 Speaker 1: phone might be ringing already, saying, hey, you know you 1317 01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:57,320 Speaker 1: got you got a surplus there? Can you help me out? 1318 01:12:57,360 --> 01:12:59,160 Speaker 1: I need one of those guys. Who are you willing 1319 01:12:59,160 --> 01:13:01,040 Speaker 1: to give up? We can give you a B or 1320 01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:03,559 Speaker 1: c um. I think he's gonna be getting a lot 1321 01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:05,720 Speaker 1: of phone calls because people know how good this roster is, 1322 01:13:06,160 --> 01:13:08,280 Speaker 1: and I think if there is a trade, it's probably 1323 01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:12,760 Speaker 1: happening right before roster cutdowns go and that's when they 1324 01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:15,880 Speaker 1: may make a move. As Bobby suggested, So we have 1325 01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:19,360 Speaker 1: to take Yeah, we have to take a break here. 1326 01:13:20,040 --> 01:13:22,360 Speaker 1: But when we come back more of those comments and 1327 01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:25,920 Speaker 1: a discussion that I want to ask Steve about regarding 1328 01:13:26,439 --> 01:13:30,040 Speaker 1: the collective girth of these defensive linemen. Just watching the 1329 01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:34,120 Speaker 1: practice footage today, some guys look noticeably slimmer. It's not 1330 01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:37,160 Speaker 1: just Star. There are others out there that look trim 1331 01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:40,280 Speaker 1: and fit, including Mario Addison and a couple of others. 1332 01:13:40,520 --> 01:13:43,960 Speaker 1: We'll talk about whether this is a point of contention 1333 01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:46,960 Speaker 1: for the defensive coaching staff in terms of their approach 1334 01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:50,760 Speaker 1: scheme wise. Next on One Bill's Live, presented by Colota Health, 1335 01:13:50,760 --> 01:14:06,599 Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. Welcome back to One Bill's Live. 1336 01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:09,040 Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you, and I wanted to 1337 01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:14,280 Speaker 1: ask Steve about this because, just in observing our expert 1338 01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:18,439 Speaker 1: footage at practice today day one of OTA's and a 1339 01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:21,400 Speaker 1: long look at the defensive line group, it looks like 1340 01:14:21,400 --> 01:14:24,720 Speaker 1: Star Latoula is not the only person who looks noticeably 1341 01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:29,439 Speaker 1: slim down in terms of physique. Mario Addison, I would 1342 01:14:29,439 --> 01:14:31,960 Speaker 1: throw in that group. I think AJP and S is 1343 01:14:31,960 --> 01:14:34,640 Speaker 1: somewhere right at two sixty. I mean, I don't think 1344 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:38,080 Speaker 1: he's a hair over that, And even some of the 1345 01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:42,120 Speaker 1: other defensive tackles looked felt in comparison to last year. 1346 01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:46,479 Speaker 1: So my question to you, Steve Tasker, is this, much 1347 01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:51,600 Speaker 1: like we saw Buffalo's offense last year, sell out to 1348 01:14:51,840 --> 01:14:55,800 Speaker 1: throw the football and dress six receivers every week, has 1349 01:14:55,840 --> 01:15:01,960 Speaker 1: the defensive line completely sold out to the passer more 1350 01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:05,519 Speaker 1: effectively this year? And be damned with it, well, not 1351 01:15:05,640 --> 01:15:09,200 Speaker 1: be damned with everything else, but make everything else second Banana, 1352 01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:13,599 Speaker 1: I think there's a possibility that that that And here's 1353 01:15:13,600 --> 01:15:16,280 Speaker 1: one scenario where that may be the case. I mean, 1354 01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:18,760 Speaker 1: look at Mario Addison, Steve he was not that trim 1355 01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:22,760 Speaker 1: last year. Yeah. It's hard to yeah, but here's the 1356 01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:25,599 Speaker 1: thing I could see that there's this coaching staff will 1357 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:27,840 Speaker 1: know what it's looking at. This is a team that 1358 01:15:27,880 --> 01:15:30,040 Speaker 1: you look back at last year, Brownie, you look back 1359 01:15:30,080 --> 01:15:38,679 Speaker 1: at last year and the Bills. Even Harrison Phillips looks trim. Right, Well, 1360 01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:43,559 Speaker 1: I've seen Harry Harrison is not trim. He's he's thick, 1361 01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:46,439 Speaker 1: and he's packed, he's got he's got a V shape. 1362 01:15:46,479 --> 01:15:48,240 Speaker 1: I mean he does look trim, but he's I think 1363 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:50,760 Speaker 1: he's really heavy, heavy, as heavy as he needs to 1364 01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:53,519 Speaker 1: be anyway. But I think you look at last year, 1365 01:15:53,560 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 1: I think this coaching staff sees this offense that they're 1366 01:15:55,920 --> 01:15:58,720 Speaker 1: going to run and they think with Emmanuel Sanders, they 1367 01:15:58,720 --> 01:16:00,720 Speaker 1: probably are going, hey, this is this allows to do 1368 01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:02,120 Speaker 1: this and this and this, and it's going to be 1369 01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:04,920 Speaker 1: ahead in games. We're gonna be throwing the wall, We're 1370 01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:07,200 Speaker 1: gonna be scoring some points. Teams are gonna have a 1371 01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:09,439 Speaker 1: hard time keeping up with us. If that's the case, 1372 01:16:09,960 --> 01:16:12,800 Speaker 1: we gotta get after the pastor that means everybody, that 1373 01:16:12,880 --> 01:16:16,519 Speaker 1: means star, that means Harrison, that means Justin Zimmer, that 1374 01:16:16,600 --> 01:16:19,519 Speaker 1: means Ed Oliver and of course all the defensive ends. 1375 01:16:19,560 --> 01:16:21,639 Speaker 1: That is the deal. You guys have got to get 1376 01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:26,040 Speaker 1: after it. And if that's the case, then you've got 1377 01:16:26,160 --> 01:16:29,599 Speaker 1: Eric Siano and the strength conditioning staff and the sports 1378 01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:32,920 Speaker 1: science staff going, Okay, what's this guy's ideal athletic weight, 1379 01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:38,160 Speaker 1: and they'll tell them and they'll say get there, period. Aj, 1380 01:16:39,160 --> 01:16:40,800 Speaker 1: you got to get there and stay there. Look at 1381 01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:44,320 Speaker 1: this is the team the Bills scored In the last 1382 01:16:45,600 --> 01:16:49,519 Speaker 1: six games of the season. They scored twenty seven, thirty four, 1383 01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:54,840 Speaker 1: twenty six, forty eight, thirty eight, fifty six and in 1384 01:16:54,920 --> 01:17:00,280 Speaker 1: the last eight games they scored forty four and thirty. 1385 01:17:00,320 --> 01:17:02,320 Speaker 1: On top of that, I mean, so the last eight 1386 01:17:02,360 --> 01:17:06,439 Speaker 1: games of the season, they were below thirty points twice 1387 01:17:08,240 --> 01:17:12,439 Speaker 1: and above forty three times. Yeah, I mean they were there, 1388 01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:16,640 Speaker 1: they were thirty, They were under thirty fewer times than 1389 01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:25,160 Speaker 1: they were over forty. Yeah, they're ringing people up. Yeah, 1390 01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:27,760 Speaker 1: and there's no there's no reason to think, particularly with 1391 01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:30,439 Speaker 1: the offensive lineman they added. But they're gonna do the 1392 01:17:30,479 --> 01:17:33,080 Speaker 1: exact same thing again this year. They are gonna light 1393 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:36,400 Speaker 1: it up with this quarterback and his ability to extend 1394 01:17:36,439 --> 01:17:39,320 Speaker 1: plays and to get and the red zone everything. The 1395 01:17:39,400 --> 01:17:45,759 Speaker 1: question is does that does that prompt what I feel 1396 01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:49,240 Speaker 1: is a somewhat drastic approach to your pass or are saying, Look, 1397 01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:51,519 Speaker 1: we're gonna be in heading games. We got to sell 1398 01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:54,240 Speaker 1: out to get the quarterback because other teams are gonna 1399 01:17:54,240 --> 01:17:56,759 Speaker 1: be thrown to keep up with us, and our pass 1400 01:17:56,800 --> 01:17:58,920 Speaker 1: rush has to be that much better if we want 1401 01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:01,760 Speaker 1: to win these games. Handle, So let's make our d 1402 01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:05,800 Speaker 1: lineman a little bit lighter across the board to make 1403 01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:07,680 Speaker 1: them a little bit faster so they can get home 1404 01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:09,720 Speaker 1: a little bit quicker and affect the passing game. So 1405 01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:12,120 Speaker 1: you got a head coach who was a defensive coordinator, 1406 01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:14,360 Speaker 1: and you got a really good defensive coordinator who's been 1407 01:18:14,360 --> 01:18:19,160 Speaker 1: a head coach, and they're looking at your offense and 1408 01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:22,240 Speaker 1: what it is Anna just passionately like what have they got? 1409 01:18:22,439 --> 01:18:28,759 Speaker 1: And you got to know they're thinking, what what would 1410 01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:32,640 Speaker 1: we need to beat these guys? Yeah? What would we 1411 01:18:32,800 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 1: need to get after it? You know? What do we 1412 01:18:36,520 --> 01:18:38,240 Speaker 1: need to compliment? And he's saying, listen, we got it. 1413 01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:40,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to rush the passer because here's the 1414 01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:42,360 Speaker 1: thing that I'm thinking of and I come back to 1415 01:18:42,400 --> 01:18:45,400 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay again, and while they have Jason Pierre Paul, 1416 01:18:46,160 --> 01:18:51,800 Speaker 1: and they have um what's his name? The other pass 1417 01:18:51,880 --> 01:18:56,760 Speaker 1: rusher who used to play in Denver and um no, um, 1418 01:18:57,080 --> 01:19:00,000 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna remember Shack Barrett, Shack Barrett and Jason 1419 01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:03,360 Speaker 1: here Paul coming off the edges top flight pass rushers, 1420 01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:06,479 Speaker 1: but their middle guys are still big, thick players and 1421 01:19:06,560 --> 01:19:09,559 Speaker 1: Dominican sue Vita Vea. I mean, these guys are three 1422 01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:13,519 Speaker 1: ten and three twenty and those guys out there on 1423 01:19:13,520 --> 01:19:15,240 Speaker 1: the field right now don't look like three ten and 1424 01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:19,800 Speaker 1: three twenty to me. I could be wrong, but I 1425 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:24,280 Speaker 1: wonder to what extreme you take it to improve your 1426 01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:26,880 Speaker 1: pass rush and does it come at the expense of 1427 01:19:26,920 --> 01:19:30,000 Speaker 1: something else? I don't know. Um, well, I think this 1428 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:33,200 Speaker 1: they just spitballing here. They got a little last year. 1429 01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:36,960 Speaker 1: Think about it. They got into that game with New 1430 01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:40,920 Speaker 1: England Josh through eighteen times. That's the only that's really 1431 01:19:40,960 --> 01:19:43,519 Speaker 1: the only game that they took him out of it 1432 01:19:43,600 --> 01:19:46,840 Speaker 1: like that, right, Yeah, it was the and but at 1433 01:19:46,880 --> 01:19:48,679 Speaker 1: the Charger game, I guess I look at the Chargers 1434 01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:50,599 Speaker 1: game as well. I mean that was a run heavy game. 1435 01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:54,800 Speaker 1: Josh ran it. Josh threw it twenty four times in 1436 01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:57,080 Speaker 1: that game for one hundred and fifty seven yards. Right, 1437 01:19:57,680 --> 01:20:00,840 Speaker 1: So I think they know that the big scheme of 1438 01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:04,519 Speaker 1: things this is a team is gonna score points and 1439 01:20:04,680 --> 01:20:07,000 Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard for a team to take them 1440 01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:09,760 Speaker 1: out of what they want to do. And that's that's 1441 01:20:09,800 --> 01:20:13,120 Speaker 1: when you know you're really good, brownie. If you're gonna 1442 01:20:13,120 --> 01:20:16,599 Speaker 1: throw it, they know you're gonna throw it and they 1443 01:20:16,640 --> 01:20:21,400 Speaker 1: can't take you out of that. Good luck. Yeah, you're 1444 01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:24,519 Speaker 1: gonna pound them. Have fun figuring out. That means you're 1445 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,400 Speaker 1: gonna On the other side of that, your defense has 1446 01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:29,360 Speaker 1: to be in that game. They have to think about 1447 01:20:29,360 --> 01:20:31,040 Speaker 1: that game what it's gonna mean for them, and that 1448 01:20:31,080 --> 01:20:33,160 Speaker 1: means you got you know, you bring in let's see 1449 01:20:33,160 --> 01:20:40,080 Speaker 1: what is it? Oh? Yeah, sixteen defensive linemen, Yeah, sixteen 1450 01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:43,360 Speaker 1: of them and you got like nine defensive ends in camp? 1451 01:20:44,439 --> 01:20:48,120 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Not a kidding that you gotta 1452 01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:50,559 Speaker 1: that's where it's gonna be. Yeah, you gotta rush the 1453 01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:53,320 Speaker 1: passer and the and like what it's it's like acting. 1454 01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:56,280 Speaker 1: The fewer guys it takes to get pressure, the better 1455 01:20:56,320 --> 01:20:57,800 Speaker 1: your defense is going to be in the back end. 1456 01:20:58,240 --> 01:21:00,280 Speaker 1: Bready time for us when we come back of your 1457 01:21:00,280 --> 01:21:02,400 Speaker 1: comments on the tweet sheet as well as your phone calls. 1458 01:21:02,439 --> 01:21:05,200 Speaker 1: Tom and Lackawana key on in Buffalo, Hang tight.

After practice is over, we go back to 1468 01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:41,080 Speaker 1: the phones. Who is your X factor on offense and defense? 1469 01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:43,960 Speaker 1: Let us know At eight five fifty Tom and Lackawana 1470 01:21:44,080 --> 01:21:45,479 Speaker 1: up next, Tom, what do you have for us? You're 1471 01:21:45,520 --> 01:21:49,800 Speaker 1: on One Bills Live. Yes, actually I told the screen 1472 01:21:49,840 --> 01:21:52,000 Speaker 1: car and a quick a different question. I've been out 1473 01:21:52,000 --> 01:21:54,400 Speaker 1: of town. I just wondered I had heard rumors that 1474 01:21:54,479 --> 01:21:59,280 Speaker 1: they renegotiated digs his contract and if so, any idea 1475 01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:01,080 Speaker 1: what that money was to be used for? Our free 1476 01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:05,240 Speaker 1: agent trying to resign Edmund's Allen whatever. Yeah, I mean, 1477 01:22:05,400 --> 01:22:07,519 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of speculation on all of that. 1478 01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:13,200 Speaker 1: Tim nothing concrete, nothing concrete, but Josh Allen contract extension 1479 01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:15,479 Speaker 1: has been speculated as the reason to create a little 1480 01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:19,040 Speaker 1: bit more room, maybe a trade getting close to roster 1481 01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:21,320 Speaker 1: cutdown time where you might be able to trade an 1482 01:22:21,320 --> 01:22:23,920 Speaker 1: asset at a position of syruplus. Happened at a time 1483 01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:25,559 Speaker 1: of the one coming back. It happened at a time 1484 01:22:25,560 --> 01:22:27,840 Speaker 1: when they thought maybe it was gonna be Julio Jones too, 1485 01:22:27,880 --> 01:22:28,880 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I thought they were going to 1486 01:22:28,920 --> 01:22:32,559 Speaker 1: trade for that guy, or if somebody else as well. So, yeah, 1487 01:22:32,560 --> 01:22:35,519 Speaker 1: there's nothing concrete, no question they did. They renegotiated it. 1488 01:22:35,560 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 1: They didn't really renegotiate, well he did. They just restructured it. 1489 01:22:39,360 --> 01:22:42,839 Speaker 1: It's the same money. They gave him his entire salary 1490 01:22:43,000 --> 01:22:47,400 Speaker 1: for twenty twenty one as a bonus and gave him 1491 01:22:47,400 --> 01:22:50,320 Speaker 1: the league minimum, the veteran minimum, so that all that 1492 01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:52,960 Speaker 1: bonus money got spread out over the life of the contract. 1493 01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:55,599 Speaker 1: Whatever was left. He gets the money, he just gets 1494 01:22:55,600 --> 01:22:57,559 Speaker 1: a chat, put it in his pocket, good in his pocket, 1495 01:22:57,640 --> 01:23:00,400 Speaker 1: and then he can just play the season and make 1496 01:23:00,680 --> 01:23:02,720 Speaker 1: you know, a tenth or so of what he was 1497 01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:05,160 Speaker 1: gonna make. So that's why they did it. And that 1498 01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:09,599 Speaker 1: cap space goes back to the team. So, um, yes, 1499 01:23:09,960 --> 01:23:14,880 Speaker 1: that gives them what we're saying. Seven. One thing they 1500 01:23:14,920 --> 01:23:19,640 Speaker 1: did too as a result of the the Diggs refinance, 1501 01:23:19,840 --> 01:23:23,559 Speaker 1: I'll call it, was they signed their rookie contract. All 1502 01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:26,640 Speaker 1: the rookies got signed the rookie class. So now that 1503 01:23:26,680 --> 01:23:28,719 Speaker 1: all those guys are signed up, they had the cap 1504 01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:31,080 Speaker 1: space to do that as well, because they didn't before 1505 01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:34,320 Speaker 1: they redid the Digs deal. So we'll see what happens. 1506 01:23:34,640 --> 01:23:36,240 Speaker 1: Let's go back to the phones and we go to 1507 01:23:36,320 --> 01:23:38,160 Speaker 1: Keyon and Buffalo. Keya, what do you got for us? 1508 01:23:38,160 --> 01:23:42,000 Speaker 1: You're on one Bill's life. Yeah, everyone's talking about Star 1509 01:23:42,880 --> 01:23:47,320 Speaker 1: Star opted out because of the pandemic, right and for 1510 01:23:47,439 --> 01:23:50,960 Speaker 1: whatever reason, which was important at Helm for why that 1511 01:23:51,040 --> 01:23:53,880 Speaker 1: year was off. He recognized his value to the team 1512 01:23:54,720 --> 01:23:57,599 Speaker 1: and he worked and he's working this tail alof because 1513 01:23:57,640 --> 01:24:02,040 Speaker 1: he knows the goal for Buffalo isn't you know, the 1514 01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:08,679 Speaker 1: AFC Championship game anymore. They're trying to go to the dance. Yeah, um, 1515 01:24:08,680 --> 01:24:11,800 Speaker 1: you're one hundred percent right, And maybe and we hope 1516 01:24:11,800 --> 01:24:14,559 Speaker 1: that star addresses the media before we're off the air 1517 01:24:14,600 --> 01:24:17,439 Speaker 1: today so we can bring that to you today. He's 1518 01:24:17,479 --> 01:24:19,960 Speaker 1: scheduled to speak to the media, hopefully before we're off 1519 01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:22,519 Speaker 1: the air at three, to get a sense as to 1520 01:24:22,600 --> 01:24:25,599 Speaker 1: just what he was thinking music all that passed calendar year, 1521 01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:27,679 Speaker 1: the music stops, so I think practice might be over. 1522 01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:30,080 Speaker 1: We'll we're gonna take a break, I guess so he 1523 01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:32,200 Speaker 1: can get Josh might be getting on, so we'll take 1524 01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:34,080 Speaker 1: a break. Go ahead, Brownie. Yeah, we'll be right back 1525 01:24:34,120 --> 01:24:36,880 Speaker 1: here with one Bills Live and Josh Allen. Stay tuned 1526 01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:57,960 Speaker 1: at a Steve taster who has been all over the fields. 1527 01:24:58,040 --> 01:24:59,639 Speaker 1: Kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role 1528 01:24:59,720 --> 01:25:06,400 Speaker 1: play state Steve a blimp. We're not even in the 1529 01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:12,559 Speaker 1: scredit fear of normalcy here now we're number three on 1530 01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:18,559 Speaker 1: day one of Mandatre Mini Camp. Have I properly built 1531 01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:23,360 Speaker 1: it with enough excitement? Hopefully everybody is on hand from 1532 01:25:23,400 --> 01:25:27,400 Speaker 1: top to bottom on the bill's roster. We did hear, 1533 01:25:27,520 --> 01:25:32,960 Speaker 1: unfortunately that Brian Cox Junior did leave early with an injury. 1534 01:25:33,280 --> 01:25:35,760 Speaker 1: We don't know the severity of it, but there are 1535 01:25:35,760 --> 01:25:37,599 Speaker 1: some reports out there that he did have to get 1536 01:25:37,640 --> 01:25:41,760 Speaker 1: in a cart, so hopefully he's okay, and we anticipate 1537 01:25:41,800 --> 01:25:44,360 Speaker 1: we'll probably get an update of some sort tomorrow or 1538 01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:47,960 Speaker 1: the next day, so hopefully he's all right, but we 1539 01:25:48,040 --> 01:25:54,160 Speaker 1: are waiting to get Josh Allen on the scheduled press 1540 01:25:54,160 --> 01:25:56,360 Speaker 1: conference with the media today. We want to welcome in 1541 01:25:56,400 --> 01:25:59,360 Speaker 1: all the live streamers who are tuning in watching us 1542 01:25:59,400 --> 01:26:02,559 Speaker 1: on one bills Live. Welcome. You can find our show 1543 01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:05,960 Speaker 1: everyday Monday to Friday on MSG or on the radio 1544 01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:09,680 Speaker 1: at wg R. So we are here talking about mandatory 1545 01:26:09,720 --> 01:26:12,400 Speaker 1: Mini caamp and the goings on. Steve and I were 1546 01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:15,320 Speaker 1: just having a discussion on how trimmed down most of 1547 01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:19,000 Speaker 1: the defensive lineman look here in mandatory mini camp, and 1548 01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:23,160 Speaker 1: we're openly wondering if that is completely by design in 1549 01:26:23,200 --> 01:26:25,920 Speaker 1: an effort to sell out to improve the pass rush, 1550 01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:28,200 Speaker 1: knowing there's a good chance with this kind of a 1551 01:26:28,280 --> 01:26:31,479 Speaker 1: juggernaut offense, they're gonna be in ahead in games and 1552 01:26:31,560 --> 01:26:36,000 Speaker 1: it's an all out sellout to stop the pass. We're 1553 01:26:36,080 --> 01:26:39,000 Speaker 1: undecided's that's a little bit of a stretch, might be, 1554 01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:41,920 Speaker 1: but because you gotta stop the run somewhere somehow, and 1555 01:26:41,960 --> 01:26:44,040 Speaker 1: if you get in a game where your offense is 1556 01:26:44,080 --> 01:26:46,839 Speaker 1: sputtering and the other team's running the ball down your throat, 1557 01:26:47,520 --> 01:26:50,120 Speaker 1: ball control and that kind of thing. Even so, let's 1558 01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:52,240 Speaker 1: face it, you getting into the second half of last 1559 01:26:52,280 --> 01:26:57,559 Speaker 1: season where the Bills were, the run defense became like 1560 01:26:57,600 --> 01:26:59,320 Speaker 1: a non fact. I was like, okay, that you know 1561 01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:02,880 Speaker 1: the run all right, but nobody was running it. They 1562 01:27:02,960 --> 01:27:06,320 Speaker 1: just couldn't. They didn't have they didn't have enough possessions 1563 01:27:06,320 --> 01:27:09,000 Speaker 1: in the game to run the football the way they 1564 01:27:09,040 --> 01:27:10,760 Speaker 1: wanted to run it, because as soon as they got 1565 01:27:10,760 --> 01:27:13,080 Speaker 1: a three and out or got into a third down, 1566 01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:15,559 Speaker 1: they still had to throw the football at some point. 1567 01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:18,439 Speaker 1: And if they weren't effective doing that because of the Bills, 1568 01:27:18,520 --> 01:27:23,040 Speaker 1: you know, secondary and their linebackers. Forget about their pass rush. 1569 01:27:23,080 --> 01:27:25,599 Speaker 1: They get behind by a possession, the Bills will double 1570 01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:27,960 Speaker 1: up on them. Now now you're two possessions down, you're 1571 01:27:28,200 --> 01:27:31,400 Speaker 1: down by ten or fourteen points. And if you miss again, 1572 01:27:31,479 --> 01:27:34,599 Speaker 1: now you're down seventeen or twenty one points. And here's 1573 01:27:34,600 --> 01:27:36,880 Speaker 1: the X factor. You know, we're talking about who's your 1574 01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:39,240 Speaker 1: best X factor on offense and defense today for the 1575 01:27:39,280 --> 01:27:41,559 Speaker 1: Bills for twenty twenty one. And we've had some interesting 1576 01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:45,799 Speaker 1: submissions to this point. I'm gonna submit this one. Tyler 1577 01:27:45,920 --> 01:27:49,000 Speaker 1: Bass is an X factor and the reason why is 1578 01:27:49,600 --> 01:27:53,720 Speaker 1: if you are fortunate enough to stop this defense or 1579 01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:57,280 Speaker 1: stop this Bill's offense before they get to your thirty 1580 01:27:57,360 --> 01:28:01,000 Speaker 1: yard line, you're still cooked because it's gonna be three points. 1581 01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:03,000 Speaker 1: Because this kid can hit it from fifty eight sixty 1582 01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:06,439 Speaker 1: yards away, he's still giving up point. Case in point, 1583 01:28:06,479 --> 01:28:09,559 Speaker 1: the Arizona game, first half he had three from fifty plus, 1584 01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:15,719 Speaker 1: fifty three, fifty five, fifty eight money, fifty eight off grass. Yeah, 1585 01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:21,240 Speaker 1: that's indoors. But man, oh man, he was Um he's 1586 01:28:21,280 --> 01:28:23,400 Speaker 1: an X factor. He is a real X factor. He 1587 01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:27,479 Speaker 1: set the single season scoring record in Bill's history as 1588 01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:31,320 Speaker 1: a rookie. He was money man. So he's part of 1589 01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:35,880 Speaker 1: its opportunity. But he's an X factor I think in 1590 01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:39,200 Speaker 1: a big, big way. Good. I mean, he single handedly 1591 01:28:39,240 --> 01:28:45,599 Speaker 1: won the game against the Jets. Was that eighteen eighteen? 1592 01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:48,040 Speaker 1: He was six of eight? Yeah, and you know, you 1593 01:28:48,120 --> 01:28:50,080 Speaker 1: tell him he probably didn't think it was that good 1594 01:28:50,120 --> 01:28:54,200 Speaker 1: a day because he was only you know, eighty percent, right, 1595 01:28:55,040 --> 01:29:01,679 Speaker 1: is that right? Eighty percent? Yeah? Yeah, So that's yeah. 1596 01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:06,400 Speaker 1: I think he was probably well, name a rookie that 1597 01:29:06,439 --> 01:29:10,479 Speaker 1: was better than him, maybe Gabe Davis. Those are probably 1598 01:29:10,520 --> 01:29:14,800 Speaker 1: your top two. I think unquestionably, Zach Moss probably is 1599 01:29:15,120 --> 01:29:18,160 Speaker 1: somewhere in the mix. AJ got in late in the years, 1600 01:29:18,160 --> 01:29:22,040 Speaker 1: started to help blow start for him. Yeah, it's m 1601 01:29:22,439 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 1: X factor could be very well be Tyler Bass because 1602 01:29:24,920 --> 01:29:26,680 Speaker 1: you know, if he you know, if he wins the 1603 01:29:26,760 --> 01:29:28,720 Speaker 1: kicking job again this year, which I don't know, you know, 1604 01:29:28,760 --> 01:29:31,160 Speaker 1: if he didn't think there's another kicker in camps, but 1605 01:29:31,240 --> 01:29:35,640 Speaker 1: I think that's locked up. You know, he's going to 1606 01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:37,559 Speaker 1: be in a spot at some point this year to 1607 01:29:37,600 --> 01:29:39,759 Speaker 1: have to win a game for the Bills late. Yeah, 1608 01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:44,240 Speaker 1: that's just the way the league's built. Yes. Close games, however, 1609 01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:47,559 Speaker 1: became fewer and further between for this Bills team as 1610 01:29:47,560 --> 01:29:49,280 Speaker 1: they got to the second half of the season. I mean, 1611 01:29:49,360 --> 01:29:51,640 Speaker 1: I think there was only two or three games that 1612 01:29:51,640 --> 01:29:55,040 Speaker 1: were decided by seven points or less late in the year. 1613 01:29:55,479 --> 01:29:58,439 Speaker 1: It had the loss to Arizona by two points on 1614 01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:01,559 Speaker 1: a hail Mary, and then there were a couple other 1615 01:30:01,600 --> 01:30:04,679 Speaker 1: games that were I think within seven or eight points, 1616 01:30:04,720 --> 01:30:07,320 Speaker 1: but then everything else was eight points or more as 1617 01:30:07,320 --> 01:30:09,719 Speaker 1: they just ran the table from there after the lost 1618 01:30:09,760 --> 01:30:13,479 Speaker 1: Arizona and lose again, they were Juggerna. You know that's yeah. 1619 01:30:13,560 --> 01:30:15,920 Speaker 1: They I went through the I went through the points. 1620 01:30:15,960 --> 01:30:18,080 Speaker 1: They were hanging on people. I mean, it's just it 1621 01:30:18,120 --> 01:30:21,439 Speaker 1: was absolutely ridiculous. They five hundred and one points. And 1622 01:30:21,560 --> 01:30:24,599 Speaker 1: I and I had back in the day when the Bills, 1623 01:30:24,640 --> 01:30:26,439 Speaker 1: when the K gun and all that, and people talk 1624 01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:28,479 Speaker 1: about how great it was fun, no question about it. 1625 01:30:28,520 --> 01:30:30,160 Speaker 1: The most they everage score was four hundred and ninety 1626 01:30:30,200 --> 01:30:32,439 Speaker 1: points in a game. And I had people back then 1627 01:30:32,720 --> 01:30:35,040 Speaker 1: say to me, people in the media after I was 1628 01:30:35,080 --> 01:30:37,680 Speaker 1: in the media, say, I've never seen an offense like 1629 01:30:37,720 --> 01:30:40,000 Speaker 1: the one you guys pulled out on that nineties team 1630 01:30:40,000 --> 01:30:41,800 Speaker 1: where you scored four hundred and ninety point I've never 1631 01:30:41,800 --> 01:30:46,400 Speaker 1: seen anything like it. Um, this group was better. The 1632 01:30:46,479 --> 01:30:50,280 Speaker 1: group was better, certainly more productive. They scored more points, 1633 01:30:51,280 --> 01:30:55,360 Speaker 1: more passing yards, passing yardage record. Uh, it was. It 1634 01:30:55,400 --> 01:30:57,720 Speaker 1: was a It was a season for the Ages and 1635 01:30:58,720 --> 01:31:05,000 Speaker 1: that's why it was a sad, heartbreaking, disappointing, unique whatever 1636 01:31:05,760 --> 01:31:08,120 Speaker 1: that no fans were in attendance until the playoff gas 1637 01:31:08,200 --> 01:31:11,240 Speaker 1: you know, the Colts and the Baltimore game. So we'll 1638 01:31:11,280 --> 01:31:14,160 Speaker 1: see we are just a couple of moments away here 1639 01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:17,559 Speaker 1: from Josh Allen addressing the media. So I think if 1640 01:31:17,600 --> 01:31:20,240 Speaker 1: we are set, we will go to that. Now here's 1641 01:31:20,320 --> 01:31:25,000 Speaker 1: Josh Allen meeting the media after meeting camp practice growth mindset. Man, 1642 01:31:25,080 --> 01:31:27,920 Speaker 1: growth mindset from year one a year four, What are 1643 01:31:27,920 --> 01:31:31,120 Speaker 1: the differences and the similarities of it, and how do 1644 01:31:31,160 --> 01:31:34,479 Speaker 1: you continue to grow through that process? Yeah, I mean, 1645 01:31:34,479 --> 01:31:39,479 Speaker 1: I think the mindsets the same. You know, just because 1646 01:31:39,479 --> 01:31:41,000 Speaker 1: what we did last year doesn't mean it's going to 1647 01:31:41,040 --> 01:31:43,680 Speaker 1: carry over and correlate to this next year. And you know, 1648 01:31:44,080 --> 01:31:45,920 Speaker 1: given the locker room that we have and the team 1649 01:31:45,960 --> 01:31:48,120 Speaker 1: that we have, we have the base and the foundation 1650 01:31:48,520 --> 01:31:50,479 Speaker 1: for what we want to do. But now it's going 1651 01:31:50,479 --> 01:31:53,960 Speaker 1: out there and executing, communicating and making sure that we're 1652 01:31:53,960 --> 01:31:56,720 Speaker 1: getting downed in with each other and competing against each 1653 01:31:56,720 --> 01:31:59,599 Speaker 1: other now our offense versus our defense. And we got 1654 01:31:59,640 --> 01:32:02,000 Speaker 1: some really great players, but we got even even greater 1655 01:32:02,080 --> 01:32:04,599 Speaker 1: dudes on this team. So, um, this is what we're 1656 01:32:04,640 --> 01:32:07,800 Speaker 1: using the time that we're using to get better. Um, 1657 01:32:08,160 --> 01:32:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, you gotta find work, and everybody out here 1658 01:32:10,120 --> 01:32:12,200 Speaker 1: is finding work. And it's good to see our guys 1659 01:32:12,280 --> 01:32:14,760 Speaker 1: find around and putting in the work to get better 1660 01:32:14,800 --> 01:32:18,960 Speaker 1: each and every day. Absolutely, Man, I like that hat 1661 01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:21,559 Speaker 1: by the way and later on the day. You know, 1662 01:32:21,800 --> 01:32:24,040 Speaker 1: later on the day you will be slinging the ball 1663 01:32:24,080 --> 01:32:27,160 Speaker 1: out there and uh thing coure to talk about the 1664 01:32:27,200 --> 01:32:29,040 Speaker 1: type of pitch and how fast you'd tend to throw. 1665 01:32:29,920 --> 01:32:32,639 Speaker 1: I don't know. It depends if whoever's catching it's got 1666 01:32:32,640 --> 01:32:35,680 Speaker 1: their catcher gear on. And you know, I was a 1667 01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:37,200 Speaker 1: picture back in the day, so I got to make 1668 01:32:37,240 --> 01:32:39,479 Speaker 1: sure I warm up because it is a little different motion. 1669 01:32:39,560 --> 01:32:42,160 Speaker 1: But all I care about is, uh, you know, letting 1670 01:32:42,200 --> 01:32:47,960 Speaker 1: him catch it. Absolutely, man, enjoy camp, all right, thanks moving. Hey, Josh, 1671 01:32:47,960 --> 01:32:49,760 Speaker 1: how are you doing today? Good? How are you doing? 1672 01:32:50,080 --> 01:32:51,960 Speaker 1: I'm good? Thanks? Hey. I know we've talked to you 1673 01:32:51,960 --> 01:32:53,960 Speaker 1: a couple of different times this offseason about, you know, 1674 01:32:54,040 --> 01:32:56,320 Speaker 1: taking the next step. And as you've talked to different 1675 01:32:56,360 --> 01:32:59,040 Speaker 1: people and your coaches and you've worked, do you think 1676 01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:01,559 Speaker 1: it's harder to take the next step from a mental 1677 01:33:01,600 --> 01:33:04,559 Speaker 1: aspect of understanding the game more or is it harder 1678 01:33:04,600 --> 01:33:07,200 Speaker 1: to work on physical things and be a better quarterback 1679 01:33:07,240 --> 01:33:10,720 Speaker 1: because of that? What's more difficult, I guess, And they 1680 01:33:10,880 --> 01:33:15,639 Speaker 1: definitely both present their challenges, and you know, physically, just 1681 01:33:15,800 --> 01:33:18,800 Speaker 1: reverting to old habits and making sure that you're staying 1682 01:33:18,840 --> 01:33:22,280 Speaker 1: on top of your your mechanics and everything sequencing correctly. 1683 01:33:22,360 --> 01:33:26,400 Speaker 1: And I got a guy Chris hass owns Biometric that 1684 01:33:26,479 --> 01:33:29,439 Speaker 1: came out last week and I did some more digitally mapping, 1685 01:33:30,120 --> 01:33:34,720 Speaker 1: digital mapping of my mechanics and you know, just making 1686 01:33:34,760 --> 01:33:36,680 Speaker 1: sure I'm staying on top of that and allow them 1687 01:33:36,680 --> 01:33:38,280 Speaker 1: a muscle memory to kind of take that in and 1688 01:33:39,160 --> 01:33:41,960 Speaker 1: stop reverting back to old ways. But as far as 1689 01:33:42,720 --> 01:33:47,200 Speaker 1: mentality or understanding defenses and really understanding the league goes, 1690 01:33:47,240 --> 01:33:49,880 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just kind of going on with repetition 1691 01:33:50,120 --> 01:33:52,679 Speaker 1: and the more that you play, the more that you're around, 1692 01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:55,240 Speaker 1: more that you learn, you know, and it's a fun 1693 01:33:55,280 --> 01:33:57,040 Speaker 1: process to be a part of. But it's again it's 1694 01:33:57,080 --> 01:34:00,960 Speaker 1: asking questions that might make you feel uncomfortable. But um, 1695 01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:03,400 Speaker 1: you know, making sure that you're you're learning everything you 1696 01:34:03,439 --> 01:34:06,400 Speaker 1: need to know and trusting your coaches. Like I said, 1697 01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:09,320 Speaker 1: um is really the main thing for the mental aspect 1698 01:34:09,320 --> 01:34:15,160 Speaker 1: of the game. Cool. Thanks, Josh, appreciate. Yeah, Hey Josh, 1699 01:34:15,160 --> 01:34:17,320 Speaker 1: it's Sal Capaccio. Sorry, I can't be on video. I'm 1700 01:34:17,400 --> 01:34:19,120 Speaker 1: driving right now. Hope you can hear me. Okay, Yeah, 1701 01:34:19,120 --> 01:34:21,760 Speaker 1: you're good, Sal, I got you. Thanks man Um. First 1702 01:34:21,760 --> 01:34:23,080 Speaker 1: of all went the last time you were on a 1703 01:34:23,120 --> 01:34:25,600 Speaker 1: pitcher's mound, And what's the plan for that pitch on 1704 01:34:25,680 --> 01:34:29,519 Speaker 1: Thursday night? Yeah, it's it's been she probably senior year 1705 01:34:29,560 --> 01:34:33,080 Speaker 1: of high school. And uh, I haven't thrown a bullpen since. 1706 01:34:33,160 --> 01:34:36,400 Speaker 1: I haven't really touched the baseball since, So it's gonna 1707 01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:38,920 Speaker 1: be it's gonna be exciting. Um. I really didn't have 1708 01:34:39,040 --> 01:34:41,160 Speaker 1: much control of my four seam fastball back in the day, 1709 01:34:41,160 --> 01:34:44,360 Speaker 1: but I was throwing two seam probably ninety two, And uh, 1710 01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:46,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm gonna if I'm gonna go 1711 01:34:46,200 --> 01:34:47,960 Speaker 1: two scene or four seam, but I want to hum 1712 01:34:47,960 --> 01:34:50,040 Speaker 1: it a little bit and hopefully they got the radar on. 1713 01:34:51,040 --> 01:34:53,120 Speaker 1: I think you're scaring whoever's catching right now, just by 1714 01:34:53,120 --> 01:34:56,519 Speaker 1: the way by saying that, am. What tell us about 1715 01:34:56,560 --> 01:35:01,400 Speaker 1: the difference between when you have such a trin laden group. Now, 1716 01:35:01,400 --> 01:35:03,439 Speaker 1: obviously there's some new players, but when you came into 1717 01:35:03,439 --> 01:35:06,479 Speaker 1: the league in twenty eighteen, even twenty nineteen, lots of 1718 01:35:06,520 --> 01:35:09,599 Speaker 1: new faces. Not really as much the case anymore this 1719 01:35:09,760 --> 01:35:12,919 Speaker 1: time of year. What is the difference between how practices 1720 01:35:12,960 --> 01:35:15,320 Speaker 1: are conducted, the tempo and what you can get done 1721 01:35:15,320 --> 01:35:17,960 Speaker 1: between the two different ways of having so many different 1722 01:35:17,960 --> 01:35:21,519 Speaker 1: people versus so many of the same. You know, I 1723 01:35:21,520 --> 01:35:24,479 Speaker 1: think the tempo guys getting in out of the huddle 1724 01:35:24,600 --> 01:35:26,720 Speaker 1: is so much quicker. Guys that have been here and 1725 01:35:26,760 --> 01:35:30,240 Speaker 1: done that and being able to relay it and verbally 1726 01:35:30,280 --> 01:35:33,599 Speaker 1: communicate to the guys in the huddle. It's been so much, 1727 01:35:33,880 --> 01:35:36,040 Speaker 1: so much easier, and guys know what they're doing. It's 1728 01:35:36,080 --> 01:35:37,840 Speaker 1: a good it's a good feeling to be in that 1729 01:35:37,880 --> 01:35:40,320 Speaker 1: huddle and understand. Whatever I call our guys, you gonna 1730 01:35:40,320 --> 01:35:42,040 Speaker 1: go out there and execute to the best of their abilities. 1731 01:35:42,040 --> 01:35:46,200 Speaker 1: So just it's fun guys flying around finding ways to 1732 01:35:46,200 --> 01:35:48,960 Speaker 1: get better. And when you play fast, you know that 1733 01:35:49,040 --> 01:35:52,760 Speaker 1: typically presents something, some good things and some good outcomes. 1734 01:35:52,760 --> 01:35:55,559 Speaker 1: So you know, we're playing fast right now, and you 1735 01:35:55,600 --> 01:35:58,040 Speaker 1: know we're we're battling our defense and we got to 1736 01:35:58,080 --> 01:36:01,040 Speaker 1: help more days of doing that and it's gonna be fun, um, 1737 01:36:01,080 --> 01:36:02,760 Speaker 1: you know, and we get to use this time to 1738 01:36:03,040 --> 01:36:06,120 Speaker 1: make mistakes and to learn from those mistakes in order 1739 01:36:06,160 --> 01:36:08,880 Speaker 1: that we don't you know, carry those onto the game field. 1740 01:36:08,880 --> 01:36:11,320 Speaker 1: And uh, like I said, that's it all pays dividends 1741 01:36:11,520 --> 01:36:14,240 Speaker 1: what we're doing right now. Thanks Josh. I don't think 1742 01:36:14,240 --> 01:36:15,360 Speaker 1: We'll talk to you the rest of the week. So 1743 01:36:15,400 --> 01:36:17,800 Speaker 1: I have a great summer till camp.

Hey Josh, Matt Preno here, Um, 1762 01:37:23,640 --> 01:37:25,439 Speaker 1: you know we got to see Isaiah Hodgens out there. 1763 01:37:25,479 --> 01:37:27,280 Speaker 1: We've seen him out there obviously working in the red. 1764 01:37:27,320 --> 01:37:29,160 Speaker 1: Now he's out of it and made a couple of 1765 01:37:29,200 --> 01:37:32,920 Speaker 1: plays today. Look just to be happy to be back 1766 01:37:32,920 --> 01:37:35,439 Speaker 1: in the mix after you know rookie year would have 1767 01:37:35,439 --> 01:37:39,080 Speaker 1: been your impressions of him and his skill set, what 1768 01:37:39,120 --> 01:37:41,280 Speaker 1: he brings to the table. Yeah, I mean, you see it. 1769 01:37:41,280 --> 01:37:45,280 Speaker 1: He's he's a longer body guy. Um, and he's surprisingly quick, 1770 01:37:45,840 --> 01:37:48,760 Speaker 1: you know. For like, I'm not talking long he's got 1771 01:37:48,800 --> 01:37:51,400 Speaker 1: that too, but just a short game quickness and getting 1772 01:37:51,439 --> 01:37:55,040 Speaker 1: off of jam and making a good release. Um. You know, 1773 01:37:55,120 --> 01:37:56,920 Speaker 1: he can do a lot of different things and I 1774 01:37:56,920 --> 01:37:58,679 Speaker 1: think they've been kind of switching him at the accent 1775 01:37:58,720 --> 01:38:01,920 Speaker 1: the ze. So he's got the ability to play multiple positions. 1776 01:38:02,479 --> 01:38:04,880 Speaker 1: You see him high point a pretty nice thrown ball 1777 01:38:04,920 --> 01:38:08,040 Speaker 1: today and go up and get it and you know 1778 01:38:08,040 --> 01:38:10,200 Speaker 1: those not everybody has the ability to do that.

No, it 1802 01:39:17,000 --> 01:39:19,800 Speaker 1: was it was awesome and for Harrison to take time 1803 01:39:19,840 --> 01:39:22,559 Speaker 1: out of his schedule to put that event on um 1804 01:39:22,960 --> 01:39:25,040 Speaker 1: for some kids that you know, really deserve it. And 1805 01:39:25,080 --> 01:39:27,360 Speaker 1: they went out there and had had a blast. I 1806 01:39:27,439 --> 01:39:29,280 Speaker 1: was good to see some of the younger guys out there, 1807 01:39:29,280 --> 01:39:31,880 Speaker 1: and um, you know when you're out there and you 1808 01:39:31,960 --> 01:39:35,519 Speaker 1: just you feel people having fun, uh, and you know 1809 01:39:35,560 --> 01:39:38,200 Speaker 1: that just your presence can and can make them smile 1810 01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:40,120 Speaker 1: and turn their day. So it was it was awesome 1811 01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:42,920 Speaker 1: to be a part of and UM again, to have 1812 01:39:42,960 --> 01:39:45,280 Speaker 1: a guy like Harrison that cares so much about things 1813 01:39:45,320 --> 01:39:47,920 Speaker 1: off the field like that, it's really cool. And my 1814 01:39:48,000 --> 01:39:50,280 Speaker 1: mom honored to be a teammate with him and called 1815 01:39:50,400 --> 01:39:56,080 Speaker 1: my friend awesome. Thanks Josh, Yeah, thank you, Good afternoon, Josh, 1816 01:39:56,280 --> 01:39:58,600 Speaker 1: John Warrel, Good to see you, John. I feel like 1817 01:39:58,640 --> 01:40:00,519 Speaker 1: I play a hundred and seven teams whole every time 1818 01:40:00,600 --> 01:40:02,880 Speaker 1: I golf. Yeah, to wake out for you store the 1819 01:40:02,880 --> 01:40:06,479 Speaker 1: next day. Uh. Just a lot of swings, a lot 1820 01:40:06,479 --> 01:40:12,479 Speaker 1: of swings, but just dumb. As expectations grow and you know, 1821 01:40:12,520 --> 01:40:15,839 Speaker 1: based on last season, Um, does the job get harder? 1822 01:40:16,400 --> 01:40:18,880 Speaker 1: You know, given the fact that the bar has been 1823 01:40:18,880 --> 01:40:23,360 Speaker 1: set so high, Well, I mean I think that's there's 1824 01:40:23,400 --> 01:40:26,000 Speaker 1: no offense to you guys and your job as the media, 1825 01:40:26,040 --> 01:40:28,760 Speaker 1: but my bar is higher than anything that anybody else 1826 01:40:28,800 --> 01:40:32,360 Speaker 1: can can set for me. So, um, I'm very internally driven. 1827 01:40:32,360 --> 01:40:35,439 Speaker 1: It doesn't really matter what people say. Um, you know, 1828 01:40:35,479 --> 01:40:37,000 Speaker 1: I care about being the best quarterback that I can 1829 01:40:37,000 --> 01:40:38,360 Speaker 1: be for the Bills and best teammates that I can 1830 01:40:38,400 --> 01:40:42,439 Speaker 1: be for my teammates. What about for the offense? Um, 1831 01:40:42,479 --> 01:40:46,080 Speaker 1: it returns mostly intact. There's some new pieces there. But 1832 01:40:46,400 --> 01:40:49,519 Speaker 1: does the job get harder as those you know, for 1833 01:40:49,920 --> 01:40:55,000 Speaker 1: you guys to have to surpass those numbers? I don't. 1834 01:40:55,000 --> 01:40:57,479 Speaker 1: I don't think so or win total. Yeah, I don't think. 1835 01:40:57,520 --> 01:41:00,320 Speaker 1: So We're gonna go out, We're gonna go execute to 1836 01:41:00,360 --> 01:41:02,920 Speaker 1: the best of our abilities. And again that's that starts 1837 01:41:02,920 --> 01:41:05,160 Speaker 1: with me. That starts with coachable and the communication that 1838 01:41:05,200 --> 01:41:08,880 Speaker 1: we have and the expectations from from him. Um, for me, 1839 01:41:09,120 --> 01:41:10,479 Speaker 1: you know, that's that's what it comes down. So I 1840 01:41:10,520 --> 01:41:11,840 Speaker 1: got to be an extension of him when I'm on 1841 01:41:11,880 --> 01:41:14,160 Speaker 1: the field. So whatever he calls, we got to go 1842 01:41:14,240 --> 01:41:17,040 Speaker 1: up there and execute. And uh, you know it starts 1843 01:41:17,040 --> 01:41:19,320 Speaker 1: with me. So UM, I'm glad that's it's all my 1844 01:41:19,360 --> 01:41:22,559 Speaker 1: shoulders because I love the position. I love what I do. Um, 1845 01:41:22,600 --> 01:41:24,479 Speaker 1: I love being the quarterback for the Buffalo Bills. And 1846 01:41:24,600 --> 01:41:26,680 Speaker 1: again it's uh, I wouldn't want it any other way, 1847 01:41:27,000 --> 01:41:30,519 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So, um, yeah, we we've 1848 01:41:30,520 --> 01:41:32,040 Speaker 1: got our own expectations that we got to do and 1849 01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:33,439 Speaker 1: we've got a goal that we set out and we 1850 01:41:33,600 --> 01:41:35,840 Speaker 1: got to go try to do it. So pardon me 1851 01:41:35,840 --> 01:41:37,720 Speaker 1: if I that's one we're follow up. But you know, 1852 01:41:37,720 --> 01:41:40,320 Speaker 1: when it comes to your own self motivations and you're 1853 01:41:40,360 --> 01:41:44,080 Speaker 1: saying that your expectations are higher than anybody else's, some 1854 01:41:44,200 --> 01:41:46,679 Speaker 1: might read into that that you're saying super Bowl or bust. 1855 01:41:46,720 --> 01:41:48,240 Speaker 1: But I don't want to put words in your mouth. 1856 01:41:49,200 --> 01:41:50,679 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's the goal for every team 1857 01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:53,360 Speaker 1: every year. You know, you don't you play, you play 1858 01:41:53,400 --> 01:41:56,200 Speaker 1: to win the game. And uh, you know, if the 1859 01:41:56,240 --> 01:41:59,400 Speaker 1: team's not looking to win the Super Bowl, um, that year, 1860 01:41:59,520 --> 01:42:01,000 Speaker 1: you know they're they're doing it wrong. And I think 1861 01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:03,120 Speaker 1: everybody's got to have that that mindset of you know, 1862 01:42:03,160 --> 01:42:04,920 Speaker 1: we gotta go out there and give us ourselves a chance. 1863 01:42:04,920 --> 01:42:07,759 Speaker 1: And coach preaches it all the time with playoff caliber, 1864 01:42:08,040 --> 01:42:09,760 Speaker 1: and once you're in the playoffs, it's a you know, 1865 01:42:09,920 --> 01:42:13,200 Speaker 1: it's it's every game is your season on the line. 1866 01:42:13,320 --> 01:42:16,120 Speaker 1: So ultimate goals to make the playoffs. Um, you can 1867 01:42:16,120 --> 01:42:19,600 Speaker 1: give yourself a chance for a world title, and um, 1868 01:42:19,680 --> 01:42:22,960 Speaker 1: you know that's what we gotta do. Have a good summer. Yeah, 1869 01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:26,240 Speaker 1: thank you, it's well. War let's up, Josh, can you 1870 01:42:26,320 --> 01:42:28,000 Speaker 1: hear me? All right? Yeah? I guts you more self, 1871 01:42:28,040 --> 01:42:30,479 Speaker 1: can see you. Good to see you too. Man. Uh, 1872 01:42:30,840 --> 01:42:34,760 Speaker 1: maybe this is a question for training camp, but we 1873 01:42:34,800 --> 01:42:38,280 Speaker 1: can try it right now. Compared to the last season 1874 01:42:38,320 --> 01:42:41,120 Speaker 1: at this time when you had you had virtual mini 1875 01:42:41,120 --> 01:42:45,160 Speaker 1: camp before this long break into before training camp, do 1876 01:42:45,240 --> 01:42:48,520 Speaker 1: you feel any more comfortable or is there a noticeable 1877 01:42:48,600 --> 01:42:51,679 Speaker 1: difference and where this team is at as you kind 1878 01:42:51,680 --> 01:42:54,080 Speaker 1: of enter this this first week, this last week of 1879 01:42:54,160 --> 01:42:58,000 Speaker 1: practice before the break. Um, I wouldn't say noticeable. I 1880 01:42:58,040 --> 01:43:00,600 Speaker 1: think we're still a very very hungry team. And I 1881 01:43:00,640 --> 01:43:04,200 Speaker 1: think that the loss that we had, obviously we return 1882 01:43:04,240 --> 01:43:05,920 Speaker 1: a lot of guys U the loss that we had 1883 01:43:05,920 --> 01:43:08,639 Speaker 1: in the FC Championship game is still sitting with us. 1884 01:43:08,880 --> 01:43:11,160 Speaker 1: And you know, I don't think there's one guy in 1885 01:43:11,200 --> 01:43:13,599 Speaker 1: this team that thinks just because we had success last 1886 01:43:13,680 --> 01:43:16,120 Speaker 1: year that's going to carry over. And that's that's kind 1887 01:43:16,120 --> 01:43:18,800 Speaker 1: of what we've been preaching the locker room. And we 1888 01:43:18,880 --> 01:43:23,200 Speaker 1: got guys that we're in Buffalo, you know, we take that. Um, 1889 01:43:23,280 --> 01:43:25,240 Speaker 1: we love being here and we love playing for this 1890 01:43:25,360 --> 01:43:27,920 Speaker 1: organization and we want to win for the city and 1891 01:43:27,920 --> 01:43:31,000 Speaker 1: for this community. So uh, you know, it's definitely a 1892 01:43:31,040 --> 01:43:32,559 Speaker 1: chip on our shoulder each and every day that we're 1893 01:43:32,560 --> 01:43:34,400 Speaker 1: out there, and we got to go go and do 1894 01:43:34,439 --> 01:43:35,640 Speaker 1: the best that we can to win a bunch of 1895 01:43:35,680 --> 01:43:38,000 Speaker 1: games this year and like I said, be playoff caliber 1896 01:43:38,120 --> 01:43:42,360 Speaker 1: and give ourselves a chance. Gotcha. I appreciate it, and 1897 01:43:42,640 --> 01:43:44,680 Speaker 1: I guess enjoy the rest of this break. And you're 1898 01:43:44,720 --> 01:43:48,400 Speaker 1: going to Australia. Like it's in Australia. No, it's in California. 1899 01:43:48,720 --> 01:43:52,960 Speaker 1: I wish, I wish, but July tenth, it's it's in 1900 01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:55,360 Speaker 1: the Central Coast, California. So it'll be a good time, 1901 01:43:56,120 --> 01:43:59,400 Speaker 1: got you. My sister just got married, and um it's 1902 01:43:59,240 --> 01:44:01,519 Speaker 1: it's not really by sell you, but like it was 1903 01:44:01,600 --> 01:44:03,679 Speaker 1: around by sell You, the same place that like Derek 1904 01:44:03,720 --> 01:44:07,040 Speaker 1: Carr got married. So okay, that's probably too far from 1905 01:44:07,080 --> 01:44:10,000 Speaker 1: my spot then probably not, but either way, man, enjoy it. 1906 01:44:10,479 --> 01:44:17,439 Speaker 1: Thank you. Hey, Josh. Jenna Coatrell from Rochester, just curious 1907 01:44:17,479 --> 01:44:19,759 Speaker 1: for you having Star being out back on the field. 1908 01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:22,080 Speaker 1: What's kind of your impression of him coming back out 1909 01:44:22,439 --> 01:44:25,360 Speaker 1: and just him being back, what his leadership and presidence 1910 01:44:25,400 --> 01:44:28,840 Speaker 1: does for the team. Yeah. Sorry, he's he's one of 1911 01:44:28,840 --> 01:44:31,240 Speaker 1: the favorites on the team. You know, he doesn't say 1912 01:44:31,240 --> 01:44:34,000 Speaker 1: two words throughout the entire year, but he's a guy 1913 01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:37,160 Speaker 1: that you love being around. He's just he's got good vibes. Um, 1914 01:44:37,280 --> 01:44:39,400 Speaker 1: he's got a new little hairstyle this year that kind 1915 01:44:39,400 --> 01:44:42,400 Speaker 1: of makes him a little scarier, you know, and he 1916 01:44:42,479 --> 01:44:44,559 Speaker 1: looks good though. He's been moving around really well. And 1917 01:44:44,600 --> 01:44:47,160 Speaker 1: I think that you're you know, obviously last year he 1918 01:44:47,200 --> 01:44:49,960 Speaker 1: opted out, but um, you know he's good for his body, 1919 01:44:50,080 --> 01:44:52,360 Speaker 1: you know, I think that he's he's completely healed up. 1920 01:44:52,760 --> 01:44:55,200 Speaker 1: You know, playing in that position, you get banged up 1921 01:44:55,200 --> 01:44:57,920 Speaker 1: throughout the year, so um, he's gonna be really fresh 1922 01:44:57,960 --> 01:45:00,639 Speaker 1: for us. And I'm excited that he's back and super 1923 01:45:00,680 --> 01:45:03,200 Speaker 1: happy that he's back because the things that he can 1924 01:45:03,200 --> 01:45:05,559 Speaker 1: do in the fields is just special. But above that, 1925 01:45:05,680 --> 01:45:07,280 Speaker 1: in the locker room music guy that everybody kind of 1926 01:45:07,280 --> 01:45:09,960 Speaker 1: gravitates towards too, even though he doesn't say much.

Yeah, 1935 01:45:36,439 --> 01:45:40,280 Speaker 1: he's a grinder. Um, He's a guy that he wants perfection. 1936 01:45:40,520 --> 01:45:42,880 Speaker 1: And you know, he got to the chance to talk 1937 01:45:42,880 --> 01:45:46,240 Speaker 1: to the team this morning, got to share his story. 1938 01:45:46,360 --> 01:45:48,719 Speaker 1: But you know, the thing that he said that stuck 1939 01:45:48,720 --> 01:45:50,280 Speaker 1: with me. He is like my first year I went 1940 01:45:50,320 --> 01:45:52,559 Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl and I've been chasing it ever since. 1941 01:45:52,560 --> 01:45:55,240 Speaker 1: And he's been the threes one one, Um, but he 1942 01:45:55,560 --> 01:45:59,160 Speaker 1: wants another one. And just the motivation that he has 1943 01:45:59,800 --> 01:46:02,280 Speaker 1: to be here in Buffalo and the one that he wants, 1944 01:46:02,840 --> 01:46:05,639 Speaker 1: the one that he has to be an impact player 1945 01:46:05,680 --> 01:46:07,960 Speaker 1: for us. Um, it's awesome, you know. And he's going 1946 01:46:08,000 --> 01:46:10,240 Speaker 1: on the year twelve he said, or he's played twelve 1947 01:46:10,320 --> 01:46:12,880 Speaker 1: years in the league, I think, and for him to 1948 01:46:13,000 --> 01:46:15,000 Speaker 1: come here kind of late in his career, but you know, 1949 01:46:15,320 --> 01:46:18,720 Speaker 1: he's still super explosive. He wants it bad and you 1950 01:46:18,760 --> 01:46:20,479 Speaker 1: can feel it and you can hear it in his voice. 1951 01:46:21,520 --> 01:46:24,080 Speaker 1: He's he's gonna be a great teammate for us and 1952 01:46:24,200 --> 01:46:25,760 Speaker 1: a great player for us, and gonna make some big 1953 01:46:25,800 --> 01:46:28,960 Speaker 1: time plays this year. And I think the thing that 1954 01:46:29,000 --> 01:46:32,520 Speaker 1: everybody wants to know, how is your a little puppy 1955 01:46:32,560 --> 01:46:36,000 Speaker 1: that we all keep seeing on Instagram. Ah, she's the best. 1956 01:46:36,080 --> 01:46:40,880 Speaker 1: She's precious. Um, she's she's dang smart too. And I'm 1957 01:46:40,880 --> 01:46:45,000 Speaker 1: glad we can pick this one. All right. So Josh 1958 01:46:45,040 --> 01:46:47,479 Speaker 1: Allen is a new dog owner. This just in I 1959 01:46:47,560 --> 01:46:49,839 Speaker 1: like him even more now, Well he's a dog. We're 1960 01:46:49,960 --> 01:46:54,280 Speaker 1: dog guys, so we're both dog That's fine. Yeah, we're 1961 01:46:54,320 --> 01:46:58,320 Speaker 1: awaiting the press conference now for Star Latula. He is 1962 01:46:58,320 --> 01:47:00,800 Speaker 1: a set to address the media here shortly, but in 1963 01:47:00,800 --> 01:47:05,960 Speaker 1: the interim, just your reflections on Josh's comments. I was 1964 01:47:06,040 --> 01:47:09,080 Speaker 1: most taken Steve with the fact that he is staying 1965 01:47:09,120 --> 01:47:12,200 Speaker 1: on top of things with his own game. Most notably, 1966 01:47:12,520 --> 01:47:15,519 Speaker 1: he got his throwing motion digitally mapped again with the 1967 01:47:15,560 --> 01:47:18,000 Speaker 1: biomechanics people that he works with, just to make sure 1968 01:47:18,040 --> 01:47:20,679 Speaker 1: nothing's out of whack or nothing gets out of whack 1969 01:47:20,920 --> 01:47:23,639 Speaker 1: so he can continue to improve. Was there anything that 1970 01:47:24,160 --> 01:47:26,880 Speaker 1: you took out of his comments. His mindset, I mean 1971 01:47:26,920 --> 01:47:30,639 Speaker 1: he's still I mean he's striving for a championship. Yeah, 1972 01:47:30,640 --> 01:47:33,320 Speaker 1: I mean he wants to win it. He wants to 1973 01:47:33,320 --> 01:47:35,320 Speaker 1: be here in Buffalo. He wants to play with this team, 1974 01:47:35,320 --> 01:47:37,160 Speaker 1: he wants to play for this coaching staff, this city, 1975 01:47:37,240 --> 01:47:39,759 Speaker 1: wants to win a championship for all of those reasons, 1976 01:47:40,160 --> 01:47:42,280 Speaker 1: and he wants to play as well as he can. 1977 01:47:42,439 --> 01:47:45,160 Speaker 1: He's not done yet. The huge step he took last year, 1978 01:47:46,640 --> 01:47:49,000 Speaker 1: his bar is higher. He wants to go out and 1979 01:47:49,040 --> 01:47:51,840 Speaker 1: that's hard to get yourself to do that when, let's 1980 01:47:51,880 --> 01:47:55,040 Speaker 1: face it, everywhere Josh goes in Western New York, I mean, 1981 01:47:55,080 --> 01:48:00,479 Speaker 1: the red carpet is rolled out right. And it's hard 1982 01:48:00,520 --> 01:48:04,120 Speaker 1: to stay hungry when people when you get force fed attention, 1983 01:48:04,560 --> 01:48:07,920 Speaker 1: force fed accolades. When you get force fed you know 1984 01:48:07,960 --> 01:48:10,240 Speaker 1: you're the greatest thing since, you know, since Jim Kelly. 1985 01:48:10,479 --> 01:48:13,800 Speaker 1: Literally it's hard to stay hungry when you're like that, 1986 01:48:13,880 --> 01:48:16,360 Speaker 1: and he seems to have done it, and I you know, 1987 01:48:17,720 --> 01:48:20,240 Speaker 1: the way he handles his teammates now is another year 1988 01:48:20,280 --> 01:48:22,840 Speaker 1: removed from him being a rookie and a guy who's 1989 01:48:22,880 --> 01:48:24,639 Speaker 1: kind of wide eyed and just all over the place. 1990 01:48:25,200 --> 01:48:27,400 Speaker 1: He's a little bit more mature now, and he's got 1991 01:48:27,439 --> 01:48:30,599 Speaker 1: a little bit more to offer in the sense of, 1992 01:48:30,680 --> 01:48:32,640 Speaker 1: you know, knowledge and wisdom about what it takes to 1993 01:48:32,640 --> 01:48:34,439 Speaker 1: be a pro athlete, and where your mindset where he 1994 01:48:34,520 --> 01:48:38,040 Speaker 1: wants everybody's mindset to be with him, you know, above 1995 01:48:38,120 --> 01:48:40,920 Speaker 1: where they're at. That's what struck me, and I think 1996 01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:44,840 Speaker 1: that's and I'm a firm believer in it because I 1997 01:48:44,880 --> 01:48:47,680 Speaker 1: lived at. When you're bet and Josh is the best 1998 01:48:47,720 --> 01:48:50,080 Speaker 1: player on the team, or at least the most important player. 1999 01:48:51,160 --> 01:48:57,559 Speaker 1: When your best players are the hardest workers, the floor 2000 01:48:57,880 --> 01:49:00,879 Speaker 1: of the floor of how bad you can play raises. 2001 01:49:01,600 --> 01:49:05,400 Speaker 1: You'll never have a horrible outing. He made play not 2002 01:49:05,479 --> 01:49:08,240 Speaker 1: as good as other games, but you're going to be good. 2003 01:49:08,600 --> 01:49:12,800 Speaker 1: And that's what a great player who works really hard 2004 01:49:12,840 --> 01:49:15,400 Speaker 1: can do for your team. And that's you know, Josh, Tremaine, Edmunds, 2005 01:49:15,400 --> 01:49:18,960 Speaker 1: Tredavious White, all these guys. When your best players are 2006 01:49:18,960 --> 01:49:22,720 Speaker 1: your hardest workers, everybody's elevated. That's where he's at. That's 2007 01:49:22,720 --> 01:49:25,240 Speaker 1: where to get out of that, Josh said. The loss 2008 01:49:25,320 --> 01:49:28,759 Speaker 1: we had in the AFC Championship game is still sitting 2009 01:49:28,800 --> 01:49:32,559 Speaker 1: with us. No one here thinks our success last year 2010 01:49:32,640 --> 01:49:37,120 Speaker 1: means anything this year. So we're recommitted to being playoff 2011 01:49:37,160 --> 01:49:41,800 Speaker 1: caliber to give ourselves a chance to go win a championship. 2012 01:49:42,280 --> 01:49:44,760 Speaker 1: If that's the mindset of the quarterback and the collective, 2013 01:49:45,720 --> 01:49:47,400 Speaker 1: I don't think you have to worry about this team 2014 01:49:47,720 --> 01:49:51,080 Speaker 1: getting complacent this year at all. Also liked what he 2015 01:49:51,120 --> 01:49:54,320 Speaker 1: had to say about Isaiah Hodgins. We've talked about him 2016 01:49:54,320 --> 01:49:57,240 Speaker 1: on this show out of the red non contact jersey 2017 01:49:57,280 --> 01:50:00,559 Speaker 1: today coming off of offseason shoulder surgery, so that's a 2018 01:50:00,560 --> 01:50:03,200 Speaker 1: plus for him getting back in the mix. And Josh 2019 01:50:03,240 --> 01:50:05,400 Speaker 1: had some very good things to say about Isaiah. He 2020 01:50:05,479 --> 01:50:09,360 Speaker 1: said he's a longer bodied guy. He's got great short 2021 01:50:09,439 --> 01:50:12,599 Speaker 1: area quickness to get good releases, and his body control 2022 01:50:13,160 --> 01:50:15,680 Speaker 1: is fantastic. I think this is a guy that can 2023 01:50:15,760 --> 01:50:18,760 Speaker 1: play in the underneath areas and get open for you, 2024 01:50:19,360 --> 01:50:21,360 Speaker 1: but in the red zone he's also a guy that 2025 01:50:21,439 --> 01:50:24,160 Speaker 1: can climb the ladder and get up and make body 2026 01:50:24,200 --> 01:50:27,600 Speaker 1: control type catches over dbs. It's easy to sit here 2027 01:50:27,640 --> 01:50:30,080 Speaker 1: and look at the stat sheet or whatever these guys 2028 01:50:30,120 --> 01:50:33,360 Speaker 1: and say, wow, it's but you can envision, you know, 2029 01:50:33,360 --> 01:50:35,599 Speaker 1: a red zone offense, particularly if you have all these 2030 01:50:35,600 --> 01:50:37,519 Speaker 1: guys active of a you know of a six five 2031 01:50:37,640 --> 01:50:42,799 Speaker 1: Dawson Knox, of a six four Jake Kumerou and a 2032 01:50:42,920 --> 01:50:47,439 Speaker 1: six four Isaiah Hodgins along with Steph Diggs, Davis and 2033 01:50:47,479 --> 01:50:51,200 Speaker 1: Gabe Dave and Gabe Davis. There's a lot of a 2034 01:50:51,240 --> 01:50:54,519 Speaker 1: lot of length there to go very deep into your roster, 2035 01:50:54,600 --> 01:50:57,160 Speaker 1: into the defensive depth. And you know, and he got 2036 01:50:57,200 --> 01:51:00,880 Speaker 1: a six five quarterback throwing it to him. Um, there's 2037 01:51:00,920 --> 01:51:04,360 Speaker 1: a lot of high targets there, particularly for a guy 2038 01:51:04,400 --> 01:51:07,360 Speaker 1: who's that tall as Hodgens is and heck and has 2039 01:51:07,360 --> 01:51:12,559 Speaker 1: a slot skill set. Um, I've said it. I said 2040 01:51:12,600 --> 01:51:15,040 Speaker 1: it this week in fact on the show. This red 2041 01:51:15,120 --> 01:51:18,280 Speaker 1: zone offense of the Bills last year was dynamite. I mean, 2042 01:51:18,280 --> 01:51:20,479 Speaker 1: it was really really good. They had a ton of 2043 01:51:20,920 --> 01:51:23,720 Speaker 1: if you remember that, they had a ton of touchdowns 2044 01:51:23,760 --> 01:51:27,040 Speaker 1: called back a ton of touchdowns. Davis had three all 2045 01:51:27,080 --> 01:51:29,280 Speaker 1: by himself called back right, and it would had ten 2046 01:51:29,320 --> 01:51:32,080 Speaker 1: touchdowns as a rookie, that's right. And they had they 2047 01:51:32,120 --> 01:51:34,840 Speaker 1: get to Denver and Isaiah Hodges' scores. They you know, 2048 01:51:35,520 --> 01:51:37,600 Speaker 1: they scored like three times finally to get one to 2049 01:51:37,680 --> 01:51:40,680 Speaker 1: count the same thing against the Rams, they got like 2050 01:51:40,840 --> 01:51:42,800 Speaker 1: they got down there clothes. They had one they called 2051 01:51:42,800 --> 01:51:44,400 Speaker 1: a touchdown, then it was called back because he was 2052 01:51:44,439 --> 01:51:46,880 Speaker 1: down like an inch shy of the goal line on 2053 01:51:47,000 --> 01:51:49,439 Speaker 1: a longer play. Then they got down closed and they 2054 01:51:49,439 --> 01:51:51,679 Speaker 1: had two or three called back. They scored like three 2055 01:51:51,720 --> 01:51:56,040 Speaker 1: times basically, and that happened a number of times, and 2056 01:51:56,080 --> 01:51:58,679 Speaker 1: they never ran out of creative ways to find get 2057 01:51:58,680 --> 01:52:00,599 Speaker 1: it in And one of the reasons they so good 2058 01:52:00,640 --> 01:52:02,880 Speaker 1: in the red zone as Josh and yeah, he can 2059 01:52:02,920 --> 01:52:05,559 Speaker 1: throw it and he can thread it, and he can 2060 01:52:05,600 --> 01:52:08,120 Speaker 1: also gun it in there, but he can run it. 2061 01:52:08,840 --> 01:52:13,120 Speaker 1: And that's the thing that really really stresses the defense. 2062 01:52:13,560 --> 01:52:15,559 Speaker 1: And I said it earlier too, They've got the ability 2063 01:52:15,600 --> 01:52:18,400 Speaker 1: to with Josh's arm strength because it is so strong. 2064 01:52:18,840 --> 01:52:22,479 Speaker 1: I saw him do this against the Patriots where he 2065 01:52:22,640 --> 01:52:24,479 Speaker 1: took the snap in the red zone, deep in the 2066 01:52:24,520 --> 01:52:27,519 Speaker 1: red zone, like inside the five, backed up and just 2067 01:52:27,640 --> 01:52:31,240 Speaker 1: kept retreating. So the defense was rushing him, but the 2068 01:52:31,320 --> 01:52:35,080 Speaker 1: space between the rushers and the secondary got bigger on 2069 01:52:35,120 --> 01:52:37,160 Speaker 1: the Bills side of the line of scrimmage, so there 2070 01:52:37,240 --> 01:52:42,200 Speaker 1: was much more room to find a receiver. And you know, 2071 01:52:42,240 --> 01:52:44,320 Speaker 1: they still had to cover all the corners of the defense, 2072 01:52:44,320 --> 01:52:47,160 Speaker 1: so they created space by giving the giving up space. 2073 01:52:47,439 --> 01:52:50,320 Speaker 1: It was a really intriguing design. Play design for me. 2074 01:52:50,360 --> 01:52:52,639 Speaker 1: Now that play ultimately didn't work on the time they 2075 01:52:52,720 --> 01:52:54,479 Speaker 1: used it, but man, oh man, you get that on 2076 01:52:54,520 --> 01:52:56,200 Speaker 1: film and teams are like, oh, what do we do? 2077 01:52:57,040 --> 01:52:59,679 Speaker 1: We have to cover the receivers behind the line of scrimmage? 2078 01:52:59,680 --> 01:53:02,040 Speaker 1: Now we have come up and cover him or do 2079 01:53:02,080 --> 01:53:04,559 Speaker 1: we sit back, let him get the short pass and 2080 01:53:04,560 --> 01:53:06,320 Speaker 1: then try and get you know, come up and make 2081 01:53:06,360 --> 01:53:10,840 Speaker 1: a play. But then it's a more if you do that, 2082 01:53:11,240 --> 01:53:14,320 Speaker 1: the offensive linemen are there, so now you've got some interference. 2083 01:53:14,479 --> 01:53:17,280 Speaker 1: So it's it's a really intriguing design. And that's how 2084 01:53:17,320 --> 01:53:19,200 Speaker 1: creative day Ball was us year. And with all these 2085 01:53:19,240 --> 01:53:21,800 Speaker 1: guys like a Hodgens who who've got this length, I 2086 01:53:22,400 --> 01:53:24,519 Speaker 1: just think, once again back to the thinking. I think 2087 01:53:24,520 --> 01:53:26,280 Speaker 1: this team's going to score a lot of points. I 2088 01:53:26,280 --> 01:53:28,920 Speaker 1: think they're gonna score a time. And as we've said 2089 01:53:28,920 --> 01:53:33,000 Speaker 1: on this show before, you know, you've got Sanders who 2090 01:53:33,080 --> 01:53:36,160 Speaker 1: is a more diverse receiver in terms of what he 2091 01:53:36,200 --> 01:53:39,799 Speaker 1: can give you with his route running and his ability 2092 01:53:39,840 --> 01:53:44,120 Speaker 1: to play multiple positions outside inside. He gives you more 2093 01:53:44,160 --> 01:53:48,280 Speaker 1: diversity from a receiver perspective in one player than John 2094 01:53:48,280 --> 01:53:52,080 Speaker 1: Brown could give you. And now you also add length. 2095 01:53:52,120 --> 01:53:58,080 Speaker 1: As Steve mentioned with Hodgens Kumero, players like that there's 2096 01:53:58,080 --> 01:54:00,880 Speaker 1: a chance for Brian Dable to tweet things again this 2097 01:54:00,960 --> 01:54:03,960 Speaker 1: year and make adjustments so that the Bill's offense is 2098 01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:08,280 Speaker 1: not predictable, because you know, dollars to donuts that every 2099 01:54:08,280 --> 01:54:12,240 Speaker 1: opponent on Buffalo's roster went to town on the Bills 2100 01:54:12,280 --> 01:54:15,360 Speaker 1: offensive game tape from last year and they are trying 2101 01:54:15,400 --> 01:54:20,719 Speaker 1: to mine for clues, answers, solutions to how to slow 2102 01:54:20,760 --> 01:54:23,719 Speaker 1: that machine down. So Dabil's trying to stay one step 2103 01:54:23,760 --> 01:54:26,639 Speaker 1: ahead of it and diversify the offense further this year. 2104 01:54:26,760 --> 01:54:28,479 Speaker 1: You want to know how good they were last year. 2105 01:54:28,479 --> 01:54:30,880 Speaker 1: You've got guys like Emmanuel Sanders playing for other teams 2106 01:54:30,920 --> 01:54:33,640 Speaker 1: looking at watching it. Yeah, that's what he said first 2107 01:54:33,640 --> 01:54:35,560 Speaker 1: press conference. I used to watch their tape for fun. 2108 01:54:35,800 --> 01:54:42,000 Speaker 1: Watch these guys. That's that's big, that's big time, And 2109 01:54:42,040 --> 01:54:45,400 Speaker 1: I think that it just goes a long way towards, 2110 01:54:45,520 --> 01:54:48,200 Speaker 1: you know, saying what kind of the there's no doubt 2111 01:54:48,200 --> 01:54:50,600 Speaker 1: the expect Even Josh has said it, He's admitted it 2112 01:54:50,640 --> 01:54:54,520 Speaker 1: that my expectations are way beyond anybody else's expectations for me. 2113 01:54:56,120 --> 01:54:57,800 Speaker 1: And like I'll say it again, I don't know what 2114 01:54:57,840 --> 01:54:59,400 Speaker 1: that looks like. I don't think we've ever seen it 2115 01:55:00,080 --> 01:55:05,680 Speaker 1: season like that. Yeah, but with a seventeenth game, well, 2116 01:55:05,720 --> 01:55:08,440 Speaker 1: the season long numbers should be a little bit pumped 2117 01:55:09,000 --> 01:55:10,640 Speaker 1: for that and with him coming out and if they 2118 01:55:10,640 --> 01:55:12,280 Speaker 1: can get out of the blocks like they did last year. 2119 01:55:12,320 --> 01:55:14,720 Speaker 1: And remember Week two, he hadn't thrown for three hundred 2120 01:55:14,800 --> 01:55:17,840 Speaker 1: yards in his career Week one, Week one he was 2121 01:55:17,960 --> 01:55:20,040 Speaker 1: three hundred and I'll tell you exactly what it was. 2122 01:55:20,400 --> 01:55:23,680 Speaker 1: Week one he was three hundred and oh, I just 2123 01:55:23,760 --> 01:55:25,720 Speaker 1: had it. Where's my where it was that? It was 2124 01:55:25,720 --> 01:55:30,040 Speaker 1: three hundred and eleven, I believe on in the Jets game. 2125 01:55:30,240 --> 01:55:37,680 Speaker 1: Jets game. Yeah, here it is. Yeah. He was three yeah, 2126 01:55:37,720 --> 01:55:40,840 Speaker 1: three hundred and eleven yards in the Jet game. Then 2127 01:55:41,320 --> 01:55:43,760 Speaker 1: he follows that up against Miami, which was that number 2128 01:55:43,760 --> 01:55:46,280 Speaker 1: one defense we talked about, and granted it was early 2129 01:55:46,320 --> 01:55:48,960 Speaker 1: in the season. He had in that game. In the 2130 01:55:49,560 --> 01:55:52,760 Speaker 1: first game, he was three twelve in that game. In 2131 01:55:52,800 --> 01:55:55,240 Speaker 1: the second game, he was four. He threw for four 2132 01:55:55,320 --> 01:56:00,560 Speaker 1: hundred yards in that game. He can get off to 2133 01:56:00,600 --> 01:56:03,800 Speaker 1: that kind of start this year. The Lids coming off 2134 01:56:03,840 --> 01:56:08,080 Speaker 1: the schedule would indicate that it's favorable for a fast 2135 01:56:08,080 --> 01:56:11,160 Speaker 1: start for the Bills. You've got a down Steelers team 2136 01:56:11,200 --> 01:56:14,720 Speaker 1: coming in here, who's gonna have to try to revamp 2137 01:56:14,800 --> 01:56:20,360 Speaker 1: their offensive line on the fly. You've got a good 2138 01:56:20,400 --> 01:56:24,600 Speaker 1: Dolphins team on the road that's probably your toughest game 2139 01:56:24,640 --> 01:56:27,880 Speaker 1: of the first four. Then you've got Washington home, good 2140 01:56:27,920 --> 01:56:32,440 Speaker 1: defensive front, very good. Yeah, but that game should be won. 2141 01:56:32,640 --> 01:56:35,040 Speaker 1: And then you have the team that could very well 2142 01:56:35,080 --> 01:56:37,200 Speaker 1: have the worst record in the league this year in 2143 01:56:37,240 --> 01:56:39,480 Speaker 1: Week four. I mean, you could be four and ozer 2144 01:56:40,040 --> 01:56:43,200 Speaker 1: coming out of that. And I'm just gonna be honest. 2145 01:56:43,320 --> 01:56:45,880 Speaker 1: The only past defense that gives me pause is that 2146 01:56:45,960 --> 01:56:50,040 Speaker 1: of the Dolphins. And Josh has owned the Dolphins. He 2147 01:56:50,240 --> 01:56:52,960 Speaker 1: scored the Steelers corners. I mean, Joe Hayden is what 2148 01:56:53,120 --> 01:56:56,360 Speaker 1: thirty eight? How old is that guy? Stephen Nelson isn't 2149 01:56:56,360 --> 01:56:59,840 Speaker 1: there anymore. I mean, they don't have anybody. I mean, 2150 01:57:00,040 --> 01:57:02,760 Speaker 1: the Dolphins have good corners, but they don't have a 2151 01:57:02,760 --> 01:57:05,960 Speaker 1: pass rush. Washington's got a good pass rush that could 2152 01:57:05,960 --> 01:57:09,920 Speaker 1: impact things. Houston they don't have anybody either. How are 2153 01:57:09,920 --> 01:57:12,520 Speaker 1: you stopping that offense? You're not right. They got a 2154 01:57:12,520 --> 01:57:14,320 Speaker 1: good chance of being four and oh three and one 2155 01:57:14,320 --> 01:57:18,120 Speaker 1: at the worst. Yeah, it's yeah, and you get to 2156 01:57:18,200 --> 01:57:20,480 Speaker 1: get off the start that we're talking about, you know, 2157 01:57:20,520 --> 01:57:23,680 Speaker 1: with my you know, you go down to Miami. Josh 2158 01:57:23,680 --> 01:57:28,520 Speaker 1: scored eighty seven points on those guys in two games 2159 01:57:28,800 --> 01:57:31,600 Speaker 1: and played six quarters, and they didn't even play all 2160 01:57:31,640 --> 01:57:34,520 Speaker 1: eight quarters. And they had the number one scoring defense 2161 01:57:34,520 --> 01:57:36,160 Speaker 1: in the league until they played him that second time 2162 01:57:36,160 --> 01:57:41,800 Speaker 1: and he finished. They finished sixth. They got to be 2163 01:57:41,840 --> 01:57:45,160 Speaker 1: seeing nightmares when they see this guy. And I'll tell 2164 01:57:45,200 --> 01:57:47,920 Speaker 1: you this too. He's the Boogeyman. He is the Boogeyman 2165 01:57:47,960 --> 01:57:50,960 Speaker 1: to the Miami Dolphin. And we're kind of we're we 2166 01:57:51,000 --> 01:57:52,720 Speaker 1: can go on and on about this, but we've said 2167 01:57:52,720 --> 01:57:55,520 Speaker 1: it before. You and I don't mind it. You and 2168 01:57:55,560 --> 01:57:58,440 Speaker 1: I watched you go out there. You go out on 2169 01:57:58,480 --> 01:58:02,680 Speaker 1: the field when the Bills are warming up, and you 2170 01:58:02,720 --> 01:58:06,640 Speaker 1: look at your quarterback wearing the white face mask, buffalo helmet, 2171 01:58:07,640 --> 01:58:15,120 Speaker 1: and you look at Miami's quarterback. It's like, seriously, you're 2172 01:58:15,120 --> 01:58:18,880 Speaker 1: gonna line that guy up with our guy. Yeah, it's 2173 01:58:18,920 --> 01:58:22,040 Speaker 1: not even it's not fair. I mean, Josh is throwing 2174 01:58:22,920 --> 01:58:25,440 Speaker 1: with this gun that's like the balls getting to the 2175 01:58:25,440 --> 01:58:27,840 Speaker 1: opposite hash twenty yards down to hiss like a zing, 2176 01:58:28,360 --> 01:58:30,760 Speaker 1: and this other guy's and he's lefty too, so that's 2177 01:58:30,800 --> 01:58:33,480 Speaker 1: even you know, it's even a bigger contrast. And he's 2178 01:58:33,480 --> 01:58:36,840 Speaker 1: putting an arc on it for you know, for a 2179 01:58:36,880 --> 01:58:41,560 Speaker 1: speed route and speed out. I mean, his anticipation and 2180 01:58:41,680 --> 01:58:47,480 Speaker 1: his accuracy his ball got to be elite. They have 2181 01:58:47,560 --> 01:58:50,120 Speaker 1: to be, and his decision making has to be elite 2182 01:58:50,120 --> 01:58:53,680 Speaker 1: because his physical traits are not there. His physical traits 2183 01:58:54,440 --> 01:58:57,280 Speaker 1: are not good enough to allow any margin for error. 2184 01:58:57,360 --> 01:59:00,520 Speaker 1: That's right. So he has to be perfect with everything 2185 01:59:00,560 --> 01:59:03,080 Speaker 1: else to be an effective quarterback in this league. You 2186 01:59:03,080 --> 01:59:05,320 Speaker 1: saw it a little bit last year. He's got to 2187 01:59:05,360 --> 01:59:07,920 Speaker 1: throw it early, even on like an on timing route, 2188 01:59:07,920 --> 01:59:10,400 Speaker 1: so he's got to throw it on time. Last year, 2189 01:59:10,720 --> 01:59:14,560 Speaker 1: his receiver Davante Adams, I think it was slips falls, 2190 01:59:15,800 --> 01:59:18,560 Speaker 1: Josh Norman pick six, boom going the other way, touchdown. 2191 01:59:19,400 --> 01:59:23,600 Speaker 1: I mean it happened in a click, in a split 2192 01:59:23,680 --> 01:59:25,840 Speaker 1: second because he's got to let it go on timing. 2193 01:59:25,960 --> 01:59:28,400 Speaker 1: He can't like hold it and make sure because he 2194 01:59:28,440 --> 01:59:30,480 Speaker 1: doesn't have the velocity to get it there. If he doesn't, 2195 01:59:30,560 --> 01:59:32,360 Speaker 1: it might be the reason why he had five picks 2196 01:59:32,360 --> 01:59:35,720 Speaker 1: in his first mini camp practice today, albeit in a rainstorm. Yeah, 2197 01:59:35,880 --> 01:59:37,840 Speaker 1: and that's one of the reasons he threw most of it. 2198 01:59:37,880 --> 01:59:39,720 Speaker 1: He had five interceptions on the year, we had three 2199 01:59:39,760 --> 01:59:42,600 Speaker 1: of them in the week seventeen. So he's a little 2200 01:59:42,600 --> 01:59:45,320 Speaker 1: bit like Ti in my opinion, a little bit like Tyrod. 2201 01:59:45,400 --> 01:59:49,560 Speaker 1: He doesn't put the ball at risk. That's gonna benefit 2202 01:59:49,680 --> 01:59:52,080 Speaker 1: him at times, but it's also gonna be one of 2203 01:59:52,120 --> 01:59:54,120 Speaker 1: those times where you gotta let it go. You know, 2204 01:59:54,200 --> 01:59:56,520 Speaker 1: you should have thrown that ball. You gotta throw that ball. 2205 01:59:56,640 --> 01:59:58,480 Speaker 1: And that's where we were if you remember, that's where 2206 01:59:58,480 --> 02:00:01,760 Speaker 1: we were with Tyrod alone. Remember where think you gotta bro, 2207 02:00:01,920 --> 02:00:04,280 Speaker 1: you gotta pull the trigger. Yeah, Now they he won't 2208 02:00:04,320 --> 02:00:06,960 Speaker 1: turn it over. You can't put this over the middle, though, 2209 02:00:07,000 --> 02:00:09,600 Speaker 1: But the plays that the offense will just seem like 2210 02:00:09,640 --> 02:00:14,080 Speaker 1: it's got a governor on it. It'll never be full throttled. 2211 02:00:14,160 --> 02:00:18,320 Speaker 1: That's right. It's like a touchdown in two hundred and 2212 02:00:18,360 --> 02:00:24,880 Speaker 1: fifteen yards. They're gonna be winning games with twenty points. Yeah, 2213 02:00:24,920 --> 02:00:27,480 Speaker 1: So that's the that's the issue that they have. That's 2214 02:00:27,520 --> 02:00:30,760 Speaker 1: not the issue here. It is not. It is not, 2215 02:00:30,960 --> 02:00:33,600 Speaker 1: And I don't know, I really don't know how anybody's 2216 02:00:33,600 --> 02:00:38,840 Speaker 1: gonna come up with good concrete answers for Josh in 2217 02:00:38,880 --> 02:00:42,320 Speaker 1: this passing game, it's gonna be off the chain. It 2218 02:00:42,320 --> 02:00:44,800 Speaker 1: just is. Just so. For those of you that are 2219 02:00:44,840 --> 02:00:47,880 Speaker 1: just joining us now, we are still awaiting the Star 2220 02:00:48,000 --> 02:00:51,840 Speaker 1: Latulae press conference with the media scheduled to get going 2221 02:00:52,000 --> 02:00:53,840 Speaker 1: here soon. We hope to be able to bring it 2222 02:00:53,880 --> 02:00:57,160 Speaker 1: to you before we're off the air at three.

We 2226 02:01:04,600 --> 02:01:07,760 Speaker 1: should do as well as WGR best Guess right here, 2227 02:01:08,440 --> 02:01:11,280 Speaker 1: your best guess? What's the first question? Star gets asked? 2228 02:01:11,840 --> 02:01:14,520 Speaker 1: What was it like during the opt out here? Yeah? 2229 02:01:15,720 --> 02:01:17,440 Speaker 1: What was the hardest part of the opt out here? 2230 02:01:17,600 --> 02:01:21,080 Speaker 1: Something like that, because it's it's a unique circumstance and 2231 02:01:21,160 --> 02:01:25,360 Speaker 1: he was the only Bills player of note that chose 2232 02:01:25,400 --> 02:01:28,120 Speaker 1: to opt out. Who is still here and coming back now? 2233 02:01:28,640 --> 02:01:32,000 Speaker 1: E J. Gaines I believed opted out and retire or 2234 02:01:32,040 --> 02:01:34,320 Speaker 1: then was released or something, or he was going to 2235 02:01:34,360 --> 02:01:36,360 Speaker 1: opt out and was released. I can't remember the order, 2236 02:01:36,840 --> 02:01:38,360 Speaker 1: but there was something to that kind of he was 2237 02:01:38,360 --> 02:01:40,280 Speaker 1: gonna opt out and they released him. Yeah, I think 2238 02:01:40,280 --> 02:01:44,640 Speaker 1: that's how it went. So you know, it's it's interesting. Um, 2239 02:01:46,160 --> 02:01:47,800 Speaker 1: I'd like to know what was going through his head 2240 02:01:47,840 --> 02:01:50,480 Speaker 1: over the last twelve months and then having to watch 2241 02:01:50,480 --> 02:01:53,520 Speaker 1: his teammates go to battle every week without him. That's 2242 02:01:53,560 --> 02:01:55,800 Speaker 1: that's hard when you're injured. I can't imagine doing it 2243 02:01:56,200 --> 02:01:58,520 Speaker 1: in an opt out capacity. I mean, I understand why 2244 02:01:58,560 --> 02:02:00,400 Speaker 1: he made the decision that he did, but I don't 2245 02:02:00,400 --> 02:02:03,280 Speaker 1: think it makes it anything easier watching your teammates. No, 2246 02:02:03,440 --> 02:02:06,040 Speaker 1: I don't think so either. I don't think so either. 2247 02:02:06,080 --> 02:02:10,040 Speaker 1: I think it's got to be tough, really tough, because 2248 02:02:10,080 --> 02:02:11,920 Speaker 1: these guys you can say what you want. And I 2249 02:02:11,960 --> 02:02:14,280 Speaker 1: know from from this point in the offseason where we're 2250 02:02:14,280 --> 02:02:16,520 Speaker 1: all kind of relaxing COVID sign up, you know, and 2251 02:02:16,520 --> 02:02:18,680 Speaker 1: we're kind of spreading our wings a little bit and 2252 02:02:18,720 --> 02:02:21,600 Speaker 1: getting out in about a little bit. But these guys 2253 02:02:21,640 --> 02:02:25,560 Speaker 1: are are built to compete and to be part of 2254 02:02:25,560 --> 02:02:28,080 Speaker 1: a team, and since they were kids, this this football, 2255 02:02:28,200 --> 02:02:30,200 Speaker 1: this game of football is one that where it's a 2256 02:02:30,200 --> 02:02:33,760 Speaker 1: lot like family, as dysfunctional as it sometimes is and 2257 02:02:33,840 --> 02:02:36,200 Speaker 1: as harmonious as it as a lot is a lot 2258 02:02:36,200 --> 02:02:39,840 Speaker 1: of times here in Buffalo, you're you feel incomplete if 2259 02:02:39,880 --> 02:02:43,000 Speaker 1: you don't have somebody a team to identify with, and 2260 02:02:43,080 --> 02:02:45,000 Speaker 1: a guy like Star who's played this game for as 2261 02:02:45,080 --> 02:02:47,000 Speaker 1: long as he has and as at that level that 2262 02:02:47,040 --> 02:02:49,040 Speaker 1: he has, and being a part of this culture when 2263 02:02:49,040 --> 02:02:51,920 Speaker 1: it was founded and evolved and now got to a 2264 02:02:51,960 --> 02:02:53,680 Speaker 1: point where they were a really good, you know, playoff 2265 02:02:53,760 --> 02:02:57,240 Speaker 1: football team two years ago when he played. You know, 2266 02:02:57,240 --> 02:02:58,680 Speaker 1: it's got he's got to take a great deal of 2267 02:02:58,720 --> 02:03:02,640 Speaker 1: pride in it. And to stay away and then watch 2268 02:03:02,680 --> 02:03:06,160 Speaker 1: them have the season they kind of had, it's got 2269 02:03:06,160 --> 02:03:09,040 Speaker 1: to be really heartbreaking not to be a part of it, 2270 02:03:09,120 --> 02:03:10,560 Speaker 1: not to be right in the middle of it. And 2271 02:03:10,600 --> 02:03:15,040 Speaker 1: that's so I all the finance and stuff, the big 2272 02:03:15,080 --> 02:03:17,920 Speaker 1: contract and all that stuff that gets pushed aside in 2273 02:03:17,960 --> 02:03:19,720 Speaker 1: your heart and you're you're thinking, man, oh man, I 2274 02:03:19,720 --> 02:03:22,120 Speaker 1: wish I was there. I wish I was there. And 2275 02:03:22,280 --> 02:03:26,840 Speaker 1: you know, you can't argue with his decision, but you know, 2276 02:03:27,200 --> 02:03:28,880 Speaker 1: being put in a position where you have to make 2277 02:03:28,920 --> 02:03:31,320 Speaker 1: that decision, yeah, it breaks your heart, I think as 2278 02:03:31,360 --> 02:03:33,920 Speaker 1: a player having to sit there and watch your teammates play. 2279 02:03:34,280 --> 02:03:37,360 Speaker 1: Josh Allen commented on how Star Latula looked today, and 2280 02:03:37,400 --> 02:03:39,640 Speaker 1: he said, he looks good. He's been moving around really well. 2281 02:03:39,720 --> 02:03:41,880 Speaker 1: Playing that position. You get banged up throughout the year. 2282 02:03:41,920 --> 02:03:43,960 Speaker 1: He's gonna be really fresh for us, super happy that 2283 02:03:44,000 --> 02:03:48,840 Speaker 1: he's back, which comes as no surprise. I mean until 2284 02:03:48,840 --> 02:03:51,400 Speaker 1: he starts banging in regular season games, Star is gonna 2285 02:03:51,400 --> 02:03:54,040 Speaker 1: feel fantastic because he's got one less year a wear 2286 02:03:54,080 --> 02:03:58,360 Speaker 1: and tear on his body. Hasn't played real regular season football, 2287 02:03:58,440 --> 02:04:01,760 Speaker 1: let alone playoff football in over a calendar year, so 2288 02:04:01,840 --> 02:04:04,960 Speaker 1: his body's got to feel uncommonly good at this time 2289 02:04:04,960 --> 02:04:07,560 Speaker 1: of year, especially before they've even put the pads on 2290 02:04:07,600 --> 02:04:11,040 Speaker 1: and started hitting people. So maybe it's to his benefit 2291 02:04:11,080 --> 02:04:12,960 Speaker 1: and maybe he puts together a banner year. I don't know. 2292 02:04:13,040 --> 02:04:14,400 Speaker 1: We'll have to wait and see if it's hard for 2293 02:04:14,440 --> 02:04:16,640 Speaker 1: him to. I mean, he's never gonna He's a defensive tackle, 2294 02:04:16,680 --> 02:04:20,200 Speaker 1: so he's not gonna Those guys don't put up twenty sacks, 2295 02:04:20,480 --> 02:04:24,400 Speaker 1: you know, fifteen sacks or even ten sacks, So his statistics, 2296 02:04:24,400 --> 02:04:26,840 Speaker 1: I think, are going to be felt, probably more in 2297 02:04:26,880 --> 02:04:30,480 Speaker 1: the overall defensive rankings. He's not a stat guy, never 2298 02:04:30,480 --> 02:04:32,480 Speaker 1: has sense. It's it's not what he's paid to do. 2299 02:04:32,960 --> 02:04:35,839 Speaker 1: He is if he might, if he leads the team 2300 02:04:36,360 --> 02:04:39,320 Speaker 1: or leads the league in double teams, he's doing his job. Yeah, 2301 02:04:39,480 --> 02:04:44,040 Speaker 1: he's doing his job. So we'll wait and see if 2302 02:04:44,080 --> 02:04:46,440 Speaker 1: Starr can get on with the media here at some 2303 02:04:46,520 --> 02:04:49,000 Speaker 1: point in time to answer questions from the media. Was 2304 02:04:49,040 --> 02:04:52,040 Speaker 1: scheduled to talk today, so we'll continue to wait on that. 2305 02:04:52,600 --> 02:04:56,200 Speaker 1: While we are Steve, I've got to bring this story 2306 02:04:56,280 --> 02:04:59,600 Speaker 1: to your attention. Okay, the Olympics are coming. We know this, right, 2307 02:05:00,240 --> 02:05:04,200 Speaker 1: The Olympics are coming, and unfortunately, right now the Olympic 2308 02:05:04,240 --> 02:05:06,680 Speaker 1: trials are taking place. That's not what's unfortunate. What is 2309 02:05:06,760 --> 02:05:13,760 Speaker 1: unfortunate is athletes that get disqualified for violations. This is 2310 02:05:13,800 --> 02:05:16,240 Speaker 1: the time of the year where we usually see these 2311 02:05:16,280 --> 02:05:20,440 Speaker 1: things crop up, where an athlete in a given sport 2312 02:05:21,120 --> 02:05:23,800 Speaker 1: is flagged for having an illegal substance in their body, 2313 02:05:23,840 --> 02:05:25,760 Speaker 1: trying to get an edge, whatever the case might be. 2314 02:05:26,360 --> 02:05:31,440 Speaker 1: The excuses, though, have gone to another level. Okay, there 2315 02:05:31,480 --> 02:05:35,880 Speaker 1: was a US champion track athlete, Shelby Hulahan, who runs 2316 02:05:35,920 --> 02:05:38,280 Speaker 1: distance races. She runs the fifteen hundred and the five 2317 02:05:38,320 --> 02:05:41,880 Speaker 1: thousand meters. She's the American record holder. But she just 2318 02:05:42,000 --> 02:05:46,320 Speaker 1: posted on social media that she's been banned for four 2319 02:05:46,440 --> 02:05:51,839 Speaker 1: years following a positive test for nandrolone, an anabolic steroid, 2320 02:05:53,280 --> 02:05:56,800 Speaker 1: after a drug testing sample was submitted by her. She 2321 02:05:57,000 --> 02:06:00,400 Speaker 1: is claiming, are you ready for this, Steve? She is 2322 02:06:00,440 --> 02:06:04,920 Speaker 1: claiming the positive test was a result of her eating 2323 02:06:05,520 --> 02:06:11,680 Speaker 1: a tainted pork burrito. I know you're a big burrito fan. 2324 02:06:12,120 --> 02:06:15,640 Speaker 1: Does this are you? Are you? Are you taking umbrage 2325 02:06:15,800 --> 02:06:18,160 Speaker 1: at this? Well, I'm just glad I'm not getting tested. 2326 02:06:18,680 --> 02:06:23,440 Speaker 1: That's right, because pork is my go to protein. Ota well, 2327 02:06:23,480 --> 02:06:31,000 Speaker 1: she claims that it has long been known that it's 2328 02:06:31,040 --> 02:06:33,640 Speaker 1: long been understood by the World Anti Doping Agency that 2329 02:06:33,720 --> 02:06:37,160 Speaker 1: eating pork can lead to a false positive for nandrolone, 2330 02:06:37,760 --> 02:06:41,240 Speaker 1: since certain types of pigs produce it naturally in high amounts. 2331 02:06:41,280 --> 02:06:45,400 Speaker 1: Pig organ meat has the highest levels of nandrolone. That's 2332 02:06:45,400 --> 02:06:48,600 Speaker 1: a direct quote from her. Hulahan made a list of 2333 02:06:48,600 --> 02:06:50,680 Speaker 1: all the food she ate leading up to a December 2334 02:06:50,680 --> 02:06:54,080 Speaker 1: fifteenth test that produced the adverse analytical finding for the 2335 02:06:54,120 --> 02:06:58,080 Speaker 1: anabolic steroid. She said, she's she's passed a polygraph test 2336 02:06:58,160 --> 02:07:00,640 Speaker 1: and had a hair sample. Analyzem what hair samples mean. 2337 02:07:01,000 --> 02:07:02,480 Speaker 1: It'll give you an idea of whether it was a 2338 02:07:02,560 --> 02:07:07,360 Speaker 1: chronic usage or just a brief Yeah, if it was, 2339 02:07:07,560 --> 02:07:11,440 Speaker 1: you know whether you tested positive because you were because 2340 02:07:11,480 --> 02:07:17,720 Speaker 1: of what she says, you ate something for one time. Yeah, 2341 02:07:17,760 --> 02:07:21,160 Speaker 1: It's it's pretty rough to go down that road, particularly 2342 02:07:21,200 --> 02:07:24,320 Speaker 1: if if you're worried about pork, don't eat a pork 2343 02:07:24,440 --> 02:07:27,600 Speaker 1: burrito before you get tested for Andrew. Yeah, I mean 2344 02:07:27,600 --> 02:07:30,520 Speaker 1: you read the headline and it sounds like a ridiculous excuse, 2345 02:07:31,000 --> 02:07:32,720 Speaker 1: But then you read further and you're like, all right, well, 2346 02:07:32,760 --> 02:07:35,000 Speaker 1: maybe there's something to it. And the fact that she's 2347 02:07:35,040 --> 02:07:38,080 Speaker 1: gone to the lengths that she has to try to 2348 02:07:39,360 --> 02:07:42,840 Speaker 1: verify her innocence in all of this leads you to 2349 02:07:42,880 --> 02:07:45,160 Speaker 1: believe that, well, maybe there is something to it. I 2350 02:07:45,200 --> 02:07:49,440 Speaker 1: don't know, and you know, I'm not. I don't know anything. 2351 02:07:49,480 --> 02:07:51,400 Speaker 1: I don't know the first thing about WATA and what 2352 02:07:51,560 --> 02:07:55,000 Speaker 1: the level is that they're looking for to flag somebody 2353 02:07:55,040 --> 02:07:58,000 Speaker 1: and disqualify them the test, let alone ban them. Yea. 2354 02:07:58,040 --> 02:08:02,160 Speaker 1: The test was taken December fifteenth, So that's how long 2355 02:08:02,200 --> 02:08:06,200 Speaker 1: this has been hanging out there. The timing is curious, 2356 02:08:06,280 --> 02:08:10,360 Speaker 1: isn't it? A little bit? Right around Olympic trials and 2357 02:08:10,480 --> 02:08:13,040 Speaker 1: she's twenty eight. Steve banned for four years, her career 2358 02:08:13,120 --> 02:08:16,240 Speaker 1: is over. Yeah, pretty much. I mean on an international level, 2359 02:08:17,200 --> 02:08:20,280 Speaker 1: So I mean, unless she can appeal it and win. 2360 02:08:21,160 --> 02:08:25,320 Speaker 1: And I would imagine that she's taking steps to do that. 2361 02:08:28,240 --> 02:08:32,080 Speaker 1: She The interesting thing to me is the test was 2362 02:08:32,120 --> 02:08:35,320 Speaker 1: taken December fifteenth. She remembers having a port burrito right 2363 02:08:35,320 --> 02:08:39,680 Speaker 1: before taking the test, ten hours before. Yeah. Now, maybe 2364 02:08:39,720 --> 02:08:42,080 Speaker 1: she's one of those athletes that does a daily food 2365 02:08:42,120 --> 02:08:44,360 Speaker 1: log so she can go back and look. But I 2366 02:08:44,360 --> 02:08:46,680 Speaker 1: can tell you right now, I couldn't tell you what 2367 02:08:46,760 --> 02:08:49,440 Speaker 1: I had last week for lunch, let alone December fifteenth. 2368 02:08:49,600 --> 02:08:51,560 Speaker 1: Right in the following in the five days after she 2369 02:08:51,600 --> 02:08:55,840 Speaker 1: got notified, she put together a log. But and they said, 2370 02:08:55,880 --> 02:08:59,680 Speaker 1: most notably and she maintains the UIA, which is the 2371 02:09:00,000 --> 02:09:06,720 Speaker 1: Athletics Integrity Unit, that they know that this false positive 2372 02:09:06,800 --> 02:09:09,280 Speaker 1: is possible from people who eat pork because of what's 2373 02:09:09,360 --> 02:09:11,920 Speaker 1: in the in the pigs. So I don't know, but 2374 02:09:12,200 --> 02:09:15,120 Speaker 1: it's it all sounds plausible when you read her email 2375 02:09:15,200 --> 02:09:18,000 Speaker 1: and her response to it, and her mindset about the 2376 02:09:18,040 --> 02:09:20,920 Speaker 1: way she's competed and why she competes. I get all 2377 02:09:20,960 --> 02:09:26,200 Speaker 1: of that. But a dirty test is a dirty test. Yeah, 2378 02:09:26,400 --> 02:09:29,080 Speaker 1: tough to get around it. I feel bad, you know, 2379 02:09:29,160 --> 02:09:35,000 Speaker 1: it's it's rough, especially if it's you know, something that 2380 02:09:35,000 --> 02:09:36,480 Speaker 1: you can just get over. The counter at or a 2381 02:09:36,480 --> 02:09:40,760 Speaker 1: local restaurant, but hopefully it all gets ironed out and rectified. 2382 02:09:40,880 --> 02:09:43,840 Speaker 1: Whether it's in her favor or not remains to be seen. 2383 02:09:43,960 --> 02:09:47,680 Speaker 1: Break time here we'll try one last attempt to see 2384 02:09:47,680 --> 02:09:50,160 Speaker 1: if Star Lotula's up and running with his press conference. 2385 02:09:50,200 --> 02:09:52,040 Speaker 1: If not, Steve and I will wrap up the show 2386 02:09:52,040 --> 02:09:55,200 Speaker 1: with what have we learned? Next? Here on One Bill's Live, 2387 02:09:55,240 --> 02:10:10,960 Speaker 1: presented by klod of Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

Brought to you by Skyworks, the official 2389 02:10:14,360 --> 02:10:17,920 Speaker 1: construction equipment rental company of the Buffalo Bills. We learned 2390 02:10:17,920 --> 02:10:19,920 Speaker 1: that we didn't quite get to the tweet sheet yet 2391 02:10:19,960 --> 02:10:22,120 Speaker 1: in terms of your offensive and defensive X factors for 2392 02:10:22,160 --> 02:10:23,920 Speaker 1: the Bills in twenty twenty one. So we're gonna go 2393 02:10:24,040 --> 02:10:26,400 Speaker 1: rapid fire, and it's brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, 2394 02:10:26,400 --> 02:10:29,440 Speaker 1: the official equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills. Tiffany 2395 02:10:29,480 --> 02:10:33,280 Speaker 1: says on defense, Dane Jackson. On offense, it's motor Jack 2396 02:10:33,360 --> 02:10:37,240 Speaker 1: says on D it's Harrison Phillips, and on offense, it's 2397 02:10:37,280 --> 02:10:40,520 Speaker 1: Isaiah McKenzie. His speed and hands can help her place smoke. 2398 02:10:41,000 --> 02:10:45,920 Speaker 1: JT says on D it's Star and On offense, it's 2399 02:10:45,960 --> 02:10:48,200 Speaker 1: the old line. They get the run blocked down, they'll 2400 02:10:48,240 --> 02:10:51,960 Speaker 1: be unstoppable. R J says, easy answer is Sanders. But 2401 02:10:51,960 --> 02:10:54,320 Speaker 1: if Knocks and Singletary improve as much as they say 2402 02:10:54,360 --> 02:10:58,000 Speaker 1: they have, they could change everything. Defensively, it's the whole 2403 02:10:58,120 --> 02:11:02,640 Speaker 1: D line. Randy says wide receiver four or tight end, 2404 02:11:02,760 --> 02:11:06,800 Speaker 1: which could be Mackenzie, Hodgens or Hollister defense rookie defensive 2405 02:11:06,880 --> 02:11:10,480 Speaker 1: ends and Harrison Phillips and Eli says on offense, Gabe 2406 02:11:10,520 --> 02:11:14,600 Speaker 1: Davis defense star. Can't believe it took to the last 2407 02:11:14,640 --> 02:11:17,680 Speaker 1: person on the tweet sheet for Gabe Davis as an 2408 02:11:17,800 --> 02:11:20,360 Speaker 1: X factor. Yeah, I think he's gonna have a heck 2409 02:11:20,400 --> 02:11:23,160 Speaker 1: of a year. He's gonna see one on one coverage 2410 02:11:23,440 --> 02:11:27,560 Speaker 1: all day longed good point. It's good point. It's gonna 2411 02:11:27,560 --> 02:11:30,000 Speaker 1: be Emmanuel Sanders, Steph Diggs, Cole Beasley and then oh, 2412 02:11:30,040 --> 02:11:33,160 Speaker 1: by the way, touchdown at Gabe Davis. We saw it 2413 02:11:33,200 --> 02:11:36,200 Speaker 1: a lot last year. He Josh trusts him. Yeah, And 2414 02:11:36,240 --> 02:11:38,480 Speaker 1: I went to it's a trivia question I was going to. 2415 02:11:38,520 --> 02:11:41,040 Speaker 1: In the year they scored five hundred points, the guy 2416 02:11:41,080 --> 02:11:43,800 Speaker 1: that caught the first pass of the season was rookie 2417 02:11:44,080 --> 02:11:47,120 Speaker 1: Gabe Davis first time the season. I think he was 2418 02:11:47,160 --> 02:11:49,480 Speaker 1: tied for the team lead and receiving touchdowns with Stefan 2419 02:11:49,600 --> 02:11:53,400 Speaker 1: Dixon and he should have had three more. Should have Yeah, Uh, 2420 02:11:54,080 --> 02:11:57,280 Speaker 1: what do you think of Dane Jackson as a defensive 2421 02:11:57,440 --> 02:11:59,800 Speaker 1: X factor pick? That is law, That's a pick that's 2422 02:11:59,880 --> 02:12:03,720 Speaker 1: long on potential. It comes down to his ability to 2423 02:12:03,760 --> 02:12:05,600 Speaker 1: get on the field, right. I mean, we don't even 2424 02:12:05,600 --> 02:12:07,920 Speaker 1: know if the guy's gonna even get some reps in 2425 02:12:07,960 --> 02:12:10,000 Speaker 1: the preseason. You gotta make plays in the preseason. But 2426 02:12:10,000 --> 02:12:13,600 Speaker 1: if he does get on, he is going to I 2427 02:12:13,600 --> 02:12:15,880 Speaker 1: think he's got a nose for the ball. I like him, 2428 02:12:15,920 --> 02:12:18,200 Speaker 1: and I think he's got ball skills. He plays aggressive. 2429 02:12:18,240 --> 02:12:20,440 Speaker 1: You've you've said it, guys who come out of Pitt Off, 2430 02:12:20,440 --> 02:12:23,200 Speaker 1: that defensive group at pitt play with a little bit 2431 02:12:23,200 --> 02:12:25,320 Speaker 1: of grit, have an edge, and uh, I like that 2432 02:12:25,360 --> 02:12:30,000 Speaker 1: about him. We'll see a Sanders was an easy answer today, 2433 02:12:30,800 --> 02:12:34,320 Speaker 1: Hodgens Hollister Mackenzie thrown into the mix. Those are interesting 2434 02:12:35,120 --> 02:12:40,680 Speaker 1: and then defensively, Starr was mentioned more than once.
