But I believe, I believe this is the 10 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 2: closest location to the stadium.

And Steve, the 40 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 2: only unfortunate thing is it's raining. We're supposed to be 41 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 2: outside like we were when we were here last year, 42 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 2: but you know, we can't control the weather, so we're 43 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 2: gonna make the best of it. In here, so if 44 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 2: you want to come by and say hi, feel free 45 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 2: to join us. 46 00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: We're in the back of the cafe. 47 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: Back of the cafe. Yeah, that's okay. 48 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: It's nice. Oh, it's nice. 49 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 2: It's a restaurant, that's right, practically right. And we already 50 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 2: had our lunch bowls, so we are fully fueled and 51 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 2: fortified for today's show. And I gotta tell you, enjoyed 52 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 2: dinner with you and your lovely wife last night, as 53 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 2: we had a chance to get some dinner together. So 54 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: that was nice. So cool, beautiful night last night, wasn't it. 55 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 2: We're eating out on a patio. 56 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: Spectacular. 57 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 2: Holy cow, it is elite season except for today, but we. 58 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: Really needed it to be. 59 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 2: And I don't think the forecast has changed yet for 60 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 2: game day because at the beginning of the week it 61 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 2: was supposed to be high of sixty four in cloudy 62 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 2: lows in the fifties Sunday night. But now as I 63 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 2: look at this, it looks like there is a chance 64 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 2: for rain early in the morning, like eight or nine o'clock, 65 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 2: and it's supposed to stop by noon in Orchard Park, 66 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 2: and then in the evening it looks like it'll just 67 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 2: be partly cloudy skies and in the low to mid fifties, 68 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 2: so it looks like, thankfully, we will be dry for 69 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 2: Sunday Night football. And there is a lot going on 70 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 2: concerning Buffalo's roster. We know a lot of injuries through 71 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 2: the course of training camp in the preseason has forced 72 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 2: a lot of roster juggling and that continues today because 73 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 2: leading our Bill's notes is the following safety Sam Franklin, 74 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 2: veteran player who was signed to Buffalo's practice squad last 75 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: week after he was cut by the Broncos in final 76 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 2: roster cuts, has been elevated from the practice squad to 77 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 2: the active roster. Franklin, for those that don't know him 78 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 2: as a player, is a special teams ace who has 79 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 2: played his entire career in Carolina before he signed with 80 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: Denver this past offseason, and it was there that he 81 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 2: previously played for Bill's special teams coordinator Chris Taber in 82 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 2: Carolina on the roster was opened up for him when 83 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 2: the team plays defensive tackle Dwayne Carter on injured reserve. 84 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 2: He had achille surgery earlier this week, and head coach 85 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 2: Sean McDermott said that Carter will be out for the 86 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 2: foreseeable future, so it makes sense to move him to 87 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: ir roster spot open Franklin elevated and there we are 88 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 2: with that, and I think Franklin's going to have an 89 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 2: important role on this Special Teams unit. This is a 90 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 2: special Teams unit, Steve that I think is still recovering 91 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 2: from some of the turnover from a year or two 92 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 2: ago when people like Tyler Matakaevich went out the door, 93 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 2: Tyrel Dodson and other Special teams stalwarts and they tried 94 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 2: to start they tried to start rebuilding it. Last year, 95 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 2: Joe Andreeson on that unit along with a handful of others. 96 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 2: Dory and Williams still plays Special teams. Cam lewis a 97 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: special team stalwart. But I think Chris Taber came in 98 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 2: here and he's like, you know what, we probably need 99 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 2: a little bit more veteran experience and Franklin can be that. 100 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: There was a couple of other guys around the league 101 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: that are special teams notables that were signed and and 102 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 1: switched and elevated that kind of thing. I think there's 103 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: some posturing around the league. 104 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 2: The Ravens signed J T. Gray. That's right, three time 105 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,679 Speaker 2: All Pro got clipped by the Saints. So I think 106 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 2: there's some tit for tat here. Nah, I think there's 107 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 2: a little bit of preparation for the kickoff thing. I 108 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 2: think because there's gonna be more return. 109 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: I think there's gonna be a little more turn the 110 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: You know, listen, we need we need one more guy. 111 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: You know, there's we need to top off our our tank, 112 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: so to speak of guys that can cover these kicks. Sense, 113 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: we don't know exactly what's gonna happen, so everybody's making 114 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: sure and and you know, as you know, same as 115 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: it was when I was playing, you snatch a guy 116 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: or two who really played good teams from from places 117 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: around the league right at the end of this. 118 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 2: That's what the Bills did with you when the season 119 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: was already underway. Of course, I picked you up on 120 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 2: waivers in November, taking Franklin's spot on the practice squad. 121 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 2: And this is noteworthy is veteran free agent kicker Matt Prater. 122 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: Prater was not one of the three kickers who tried 123 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 2: out for the Bills last week, but he is on 124 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 2: the practice squad now. And if there is any question 125 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 2: about whether or not Tyler Bass is one hundred percent 126 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 2: for the game this weekend. I don't think either of 127 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 2: us would be surprised to see Matt Prater elevated from 128 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 2: the practice squad to the roster on Sunday to kick 129 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: for the Buffalo Bills in Week one. 130 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: Maybe Bass has not been himself this camp. He hasn't 131 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: kicked much. He kicked a little bit in the preseason 132 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: there at the end. 133 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 2: He was limited in practice yesterday. 134 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: So you know you've gotta have a Kuya kick well particular, Yeah. 135 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 2: If this is a close game and you need a 136 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: fifty six yarder from your kicker and Bass isn't one 137 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 2: hundred percent, I mean, let's go back to the Tampa 138 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 2: Bay game. 139 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 140 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 2: Coach McDermott after the game, I asked him, you know, 141 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 2: is Tyler Bass? You know what he looks like when 142 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 2: he's on and he's himself. Did he look like himself? 143 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: And he didn't give me a direct answer, which caused 144 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 2: me to be concerned. But then he went on to 145 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 2: explain that his LI in the preseason game against Tampa 146 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 2: was forty eight yards and we know that Bass can 147 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 2: kick much further than that, so that was an indication 148 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 2: he was not fully healthy yet either. And here we 149 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: are in Week one now and he's still limited in practice. 150 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 2: I think there's a very good chance that Matt Prater 151 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 2: is elevated on Sunday to kick for the Bills on 152 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 2: Sunday Night Football against the Ravens. And look, he's wearing 153 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 2: jersey number fifteen in case you're wondering. Prater is forty 154 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 2: one years old. Played for Arizona last year before a 155 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 2: torn meniscus in his left knee landed him on injured reserve. 156 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 2: But Prater is known as one of the best long 157 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:41,199 Speaker 2: distance kickers ever. In fact, he has the most fifty 158 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 2: plus yard field goals than anyone in NFL history. He 159 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 2: has eighty one. Do you want to know who's next? 160 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 2: Two guys are tied for second place and nope. 161 00:08:54,400 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: Uh oh the guy from Mud Baltimore, Tucker is one 162 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: one of them and the other one's gotta be It's 163 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: gotta be Yannick Jankowski Sanikowski, Yes, Sanekowsi, So it's Janikowski 164 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: and Tucker. 165 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 2: Prader has eighty one. Those two are second with fifty eight. 166 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: Oh chee Christmas. 167 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 2: I mean yeah, that was like Babe Ruth back in 168 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,839 Speaker 2: the day. And the next guy was second when home 169 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 2: runs and he had four hundred Like that is a 170 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 2: huge swath from first to second place. But I think 171 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 2: it's an indication on how good Prader has been for 172 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 2: so long. Seventy five percent. Listen to this, seventy five 173 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 2: percent kicker from fifty yards plus in his career, seventy 174 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 2: five percent eighty one of one oh eight. 175 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: He only played four games last years, she said, but 176 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 1: two years ago he made a career high nine fifty 177 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: plus yard field. 178 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 2: Goals, including a sixty two yarder. 179 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: And a sixty two yarder. So he's he's got some 180 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: chops and whatever moment they put him in there, and 181 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: it's not gonna be too big for him, you know, 182 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: so you get you get that. So they'll be taking 183 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: some reps. You can imagine. 184 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 2: You gotta get the operation. 185 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, they gotta get the operation. Now the operation should 186 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: be down. It's all on the holder. So he's gonna 187 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: have you know, he's gonna have to you know, Robbins 188 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: is gonna have to know how Prader likes it. Some 189 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: guys like it tilted forward, tilted, sideways, tilted out, tilted 190 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: in all that stuff. So he'll get that down. But 191 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: that's you know, you gotta do it if it's gonna happen. 192 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 2: Praterer is an eighty three point six percent kicker for 193 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 2: his career. That is an eighteen year career. You want 194 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,959 Speaker 2: to talk about consistency, we that's it. 195 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: We may be ahead of ourselves. I mean, there's nothing 196 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: that says Tyler Best isn't gonna go out and kick 197 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: and kick. Well, we haven't heard anything like that. But 198 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: he was limited in practice. 199 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 2: So it raises and now they make this move after 200 00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 2: seeing him in practice yesterday on a limited base. 201 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: It makes these question, It makes this a huge question. 202 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 2: Feels like it's trending somewhere. Yeah, right, So we'll wait 203 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 2: and see. We know coach will address the media tomorrow 204 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 2: and maybe there'll be more clarity on just what their 205 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 2: plans are for this week one game. Today will also 206 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 2: be an important day on the practice field for Buffalo's secondary. 207 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 2: Cornerback Trdavius White did not practice Wednesday due to what 208 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 2: we learned is a groin injury, not a lower leg injury. 209 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 2: Christian Benford also limited with a groin injury. He practiced 210 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 2: on a limited basis Wednesday. Others on Buffalo's injury report, 211 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 2: where Kean Coleman, who was limited with a groin injury. 212 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 2: He is a new addition, wide receiver Khalil Shakir. This 213 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 2: was the good news. He was a full participant as 214 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: he looks to be fully recovered from the high ankle 215 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 2: sprain he sustained a month ago. And as we mentioned, 216 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 2: kicker Tyler Bass limited with a hip and groin injury. 217 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 2: So last year it was the wrist injuries, it seems 218 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 2: like this year it's the groin injury. There's four guys 219 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: with groin injuries. 220 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: It's unbelievable, Like, what's going on? Yeah, like five days before, 221 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 1: you know, five days before you're teaming up for Game one. Yeah, 222 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: that's pretty disappointing. 223 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 2: Buffalo also signed wide receiver Gabe Davis to the practice 224 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 2: squad late Wednesday, and then released safety Jordan Poyer to 225 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 2: make room for him on the practice squad. As head 226 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 2: coach Sean McDermott said Wednesday, they will move Gabe to 227 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 2: practice squad injured, but the regulations required to sign him 228 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 2: to the regular practice squad. Then you designate him practice 229 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 2: squad injured. He moves off the practice squad, thereby creating 230 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 2: an open spot, and then it's anticipated that Jordan Poyle 231 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 2: be signed back to the regular practice squad at that 232 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 2: point in time. So just a little roster juggling there. 233 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 2: I know some people were up in arms when they 234 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 2: saw Jordan Poyer get clipped from the practice squad. They're like, 235 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 2: you just got it. Hold on, we got to just 236 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:59,079 Speaker 2: shuffle some things around, just following protocol and procedure there. 237 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 2: So he anticipated Poor will be back on the practice 238 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 2: squad in short order, maybe as soon as today. So 239 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 2: those are the roster news and notes, and as we said, 240 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 2: we'll kind of see how this unfolds through the rest 241 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 2: of the week. But man, I have to believe Brandon 242 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 2: Bean in his eight years here, look, he's seen his 243 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 2: share of roster juggling before, but going into a season 244 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 2: week one, I cannot recall quite this much roster shuffling. 245 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 2: And it's mainly due to injury and lack of player availability, 246 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 2: which is not how you want to go into a season, 247 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 2: as we all know. 248 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: The thing is, none of these injuries are beside from 249 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: from Twain Carter, none of them are Matt Harris, Max Harrison, 250 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: even Max Harrison well down stride of it. But good grief, 251 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: you know, so this this looks to be it's going 252 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: to be going on for the entire year. I mean, 253 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: it always happens, but usually because of the way they 254 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: handle these guys in the preseason. You're not pulling everybody's 255 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: pulling the same muscle. You know, it's wild, all in 256 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 1: the same week. It's it's crazy. It yeah, it's just crazy. 257 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: So it's it's really disappointing. 258 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 2: Especially when you feel like you need all hands on 259 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 2: deck to face the caliber of opponent you're playing. 260 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, it's pretty frustrating. 261 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 2: So that's kind of where that is at. I'll get 262 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 2: to the Ravens practice situation in just a second with 263 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 2: respect to their injury report, but let's go around the NFL, 264 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 2: which is presented by Kalida Healthy, official healthcare system of 265 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills, and the NFL kickoff game is two 266 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 2: night in Philadelphia, where the defending Super Bowl champion Eagles 267 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 2: will be raising their Super Bowl fifty nine banner before 268 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 2: they square off against division rival Dallas. Cornerback Trayvon Diggs 269 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 2: expected to play for the Cowboys, but will reportedly be 270 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 2: on a pitch count in his return from a second 271 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 2: season ending injury last year, So we'll see how that looks. 272 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 2: I think it'll be a competitive game for a little while, 273 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 2: but I am anticipating Philadelphia to eventually pull away. That 274 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 2: defense for Dallas is not in good shape. It was 275 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 2: stripped of its talent even further with the trade of 276 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 2: Micah Parsons. It could very well be a hangover there 277 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 2: because of it. 278 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: But we'll see, We'll see maybe. I mean, yeah, certainly, 279 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: it's a it's a division game. These teams are pretty 280 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: familiar with each other, even the coaching stats at this point, 281 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: except for Dallas got a new head coach. They could 282 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: come out and throw a curve ball or something to 283 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: hang in there. I'm I'm talking about Dallas. 284 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 3: Uh. 285 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: But eventually, when you've got two sides of the ball 286 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: that are really strong with talent and you have the 287 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: opponent has one, it's hard to hang in there. 288 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, So we'll see where it goes. Baltimore Ravens injury 289 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 2: report on Wednesday was as follows did not practice, tight 290 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 2: end Isaiah Likely, who's not expected to play Sunday night, 291 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 2: and fullback Patrick Ricard, who is dealing with a calf 292 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 2: injury and really hasn't practiced in two weeks. So it's 293 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 2: very unlikely that he plays either and then limited in 294 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 2: practice nickel corner jy R Alexander with a knee injury, 295 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 2: and starting right guard Daniel fa a Leile with an illness. 296 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 2: He must practice yesterday with an illness. So we'll see 297 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: where those injuries go when the Thursday injury report comes 298 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 2: out today for the Ravens. But I would say it's 299 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 2: trending for likely in Recard to not suit up. And 300 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 2: if you thought it was tough stopping at two hundred 301 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 2: and fifty pound running back and Derrick Henry now put 302 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 2: a three hundred pound full back in front of him 303 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 2: and it gets real, real fast. If he's out of 304 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 2: the equation, that limits some of those power run packages 305 00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 2: that they have with Ricard. 306 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, they may change and play calls, but you still 307 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: you still got to go up and tackle the dude. 308 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: And he's really fast. So yeah, he's a problem. It's 309 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: a problem there. Their offense was outstanding last year, it's 310 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 1: going to be outstanding again this year, and you got 311 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: to get him right out of the gate. 312 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 2: Yeah. We heard Bobby Babbitte address the media today, you know, 313 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,120 Speaker 2: and he's asked about the Ravens offense and he goes, 314 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 2: they're really good, like they're really good. He goes, you 315 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 2: look up and down the league statistics last year, he 316 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 2: goes for all of the offensive categories for the Ravens. 317 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 2: There's a lot of ones and twos, a lot of 318 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 2: first and second in the league rankings. So they know 319 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 2: what they're up against. And you know, I think the 320 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 2: other thing that was interesting that Bobby Babbage was asked 321 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 2: about because I think people, I think the media is 322 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 2: trying to prepare stories in the event that Trey White 323 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 2: can't play and Christian Benford can't play. We don't know that. 324 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 2: We'll see what happens today at practice in terms of 325 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 2: who's part is painting and who is not. But if 326 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,959 Speaker 2: Trey White can't play and Christian Benford can't play, you're 327 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 2: looking at JaMarcus Ingram and rookie Dorian Strong as your 328 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 2: two outside corners on Sunday. So coach Babbage was asked, 329 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 2: how are these two guys kind of coming along and 330 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 2: all of that, and he said they've been excellent. He said, 331 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 2: Dorian Strong is a kid that sweats the details. Has 332 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: been on his p's and q's since he got to 333 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 2: Buffalo from Virginia Tech. As a sixth round draft choice. 334 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 2: But this is not an environment that he has operated 335 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 2: in before. 336 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: So, right, it's not a level of talent he's operating. 337 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 2: The magnitude of the game, the level of the talent 338 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 2: he will be facing, and the complexity of the offensive 339 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 2: scheme he will be going up against will be all 340 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 2: new to him. Even if he has Tailor Rap and 341 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 2: Cole Bishop and others kind of helping him along back. 342 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 1: There, he's got it. I mean, he's gonna have to 343 00:18:55,720 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: get on the field at some point, starting on day 344 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: one your rookie year. 345 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 2: It might be we'll see. 346 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,720 Speaker 1: Maybe the thing that happens. But yeah, he's got some 347 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 1: good leadership in that room. They'll be all right. Particularly 348 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,120 Speaker 1: and it's not like Trey White and Christian Benford aren't gonna, 349 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 1: you know, evacuate. I mean they'll be there helping him 350 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: as well with his you know, when he comes off 351 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 1: the field, they'll be having conversations and stuff about what's 352 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: what he's seeing, what he's doing. So he's not going 353 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: to be alone in this. So it's uh, but it 354 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 1: is telling that if you put Max Harrison into that mix, 355 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 1: you're starting Week one with fourth and fifth corners. 356 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, because Harrison's on ir We don't know the status 357 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 2: to Tradevius White for Sunday yet, and Benford's a little 358 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 2: nicked up too, so you're hoping that Benford can at 359 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 2: least go because then you can probably mitigate, you know, 360 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 2: having Ingram on the other side, because Ingram has played before, 361 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 2: he knows this defensive scheme intimately, and you hope, you know, 362 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 2: you can help him out here and there within the 363 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 2: frame work of the scheme, knowing he might be going 364 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 2: up against some matchups where he is unquestionably going to 365 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 2: be targeted. So there's that. We'll see how it all 366 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 2: shakes out as the week moves along. Another pass rusher 367 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 2: got a bag of money less than a week after 368 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 2: Micah Parson's got his following his trade to Green Bay. 369 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 2: Denver All Pro pass rusher Nick Benito has agreed to 370 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 2: a four year extension worth up to one hundred and 371 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 2: twenty million, with seventy million guaranteed with the Broncos. Benito 372 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 2: coming off a thirteen and a half sax season that 373 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 2: included a pair of defensive touchdowns as well. A lot 374 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 2: of people are bullish on the Broncos, mainly because of 375 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,239 Speaker 2: their defense which was very good last year, and what 376 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,439 Speaker 2: they've added to it. They added a couple of players 377 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:47,719 Speaker 2: from sanfran that were starters on the Niners defense who 378 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 2: Founged the safety and Drake Greenlaw the linebacker, So they're 379 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 2: really expecting to be a top five defense this year. 380 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,439 Speaker 1: Their defense was really rough lash year. You go back 381 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: and watch that wild card game in Buffalo where the 382 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: Broncos came in with a rookie quarterback, It was like 383 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: ten three late in the second quarter, maybe ten, so yeah, 384 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,879 Speaker 1: it was like ten to seven at halftime or some 385 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,199 Speaker 1: of the Bills were trailing, I think, But anyway, it 386 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 1: was a tussle, and it was because of their defense, 387 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 1: you could. And then in the second half, Josh and 388 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: the offense and Joe Brady kind of figured some stuff 389 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: out and linkedined it out on him, and of course 390 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: the defense got a couple of turnovers. So it was Yeah, 391 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: the Broncos are a good football team. And Bonito I 392 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: remember watching in the run up to that wild card game. 393 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 1: I would, you know, you ask your something like who 394 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: is this guy? You know if we don't see him? 395 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 1: And twelve and a half sacks is a pretty good year. 396 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: Thirteen and a half thirteen and a half sacks a 397 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: pretty good year. 398 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. ESPN is reporting that Anthony Richardson's agent, quarterback for 399 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 2: the Colts, again met in person with Colts GM Chris 400 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 2: Ballard to discuss Richardson's future. A trade was not requested, 401 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 2: but the topic was discussed. According to ESPN, Richardson lost 402 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 2: the starting quarterback battle as we know this summer to 403 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, who will be the starter for Indianapolis this season. 404 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 2: So I don't know what comes of it, and I 405 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 2: think what precipitated this face to face meeting was head 406 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 2: coach Shane Steichen when he named Daniel Jones the starter, 407 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,640 Speaker 2: said he's the starter for the season. We're not gonna 408 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 2: go with this back and forth stuff. He's the guy, 409 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 2: right and that was it. That was the end of it. 410 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 2: And so his agent's hearing that, going, oh, well, I'm 411 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 2: not gonna let him waste away on the bench, you know. 412 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 2: So he's gonna see if there are other options, and 413 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 2: it's apparently what his agent's doing right now. 414 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 1: I'll say this, laugh at me. If you want Cleveland 415 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 1: brown the Cleveland Browns have a better quarterback situation than 416 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts. 417 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 2: Wow, Daniel Jones and they had Joe Flacco last year. 418 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: Dan, that's right, Daniel Jones can't play, he's not good enough. 419 00:22:55,400 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 1: Flacco is steady and can still throw it well. And 420 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: then they've got two young guys that maybe have an 421 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: upside maybe and Dyng Gabriel and Shador Sanders. I think 422 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: we know what you know Anthony Richardson is he's he's 423 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: got a long way to go if and I don't 424 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: know that he's moving in the right direction. So yeah, 425 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,439 Speaker 1: I would Cleveland's got a better quarterback situation than the 426 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. Wow, they do. 427 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 2: I never thought of it that way, but that is glaring. 428 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 4: Yeah. 429 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 2: I don't even want to think about it anymore. And 430 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 2: we don't even cover the Colts. My god, God, that's bad. 431 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:41,439 Speaker 2: The billionaire Koch family that's Koch has reportedly bought a 432 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 2: ten percent stake in the New York Giants for one 433 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 2: billion dollars, thereby giving the Giants franchise a record ten 434 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,159 Speaker 2: billion dollar valuation, which is a pro sports record in 435 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,479 Speaker 2: the United States. The Tish and Mara families, who are 436 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 2: equal fifty percent owners of the Giants, have agreed to 437 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 2: sell five percent of each of their steaks in the 438 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 2: Giants to Julia Coke, who would then own a ten 439 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 2: percent equity stake of the franchise, provided NFL owners approve 440 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 2: the sale agreement at their fall meeting in October. The 441 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 2: Coke family has also purchased a fifteen percent steak in 442 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,719 Speaker 2: the parent company of the Brooklyn Nets, New York Liberty 443 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 2: and the Barkley Center in Brooklyn. They did that last year. 444 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 2: So the Coke family getting very involved in sports franchise 445 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 2: steaks in the New York City metropolitan area over the 446 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 2: last year or so. Julia Coke, the widow of the 447 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 2: Lady David Coke, has a net worth of just over 448 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 2: eighty billion dollars. How do you even fathom the amount 449 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,679 Speaker 2: of money you have when you have that much money? 450 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 2: Eighty billion? 451 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, the worth of the words just over are probably 452 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:55,719 Speaker 1: a fortune. 453 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 2: It's eighty one point two that's what she's. 454 00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 3: Worth, right. 455 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: One point two is is a is We want to 456 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: siphon that off to Steve and I that's a fortune. 457 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 2: Just cut that off. 458 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: Just over eighty billion is a fortune. So yeah, that's 459 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: they We see it a lot. It's a place for 460 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: a healthy investment. It's a healthy investment, you get a 461 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: good return on it. It's been proven. And to have 462 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: the franchise in New York the Giants valued at ten 463 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: billion says a lot. 464 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 2: It does. And there's no reason to think that won't 465 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 2: get approved. So we'll see. We'll see, you know, when 466 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 2: the owner's meeting rolls around in October. But I'm not 467 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 2: terribly concerned that that's not going to get approved, and 468 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 2: I don't think the Cochs are either. Finally, Raiders wide 469 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 2: receiver Jakobe Myers, in the final year of his contract, 470 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 2: is unsure if a new contract will get done with 471 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 2: the Raiders organization. Quote, I don't even know it's gonna 472 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 2: be good regardless. Myers had hoped to get a you'll 473 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 2: done before the season opener against the Patriots, but both 474 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 2: sides have been unable to come to terms on a 475 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,640 Speaker 2: new contract. Myers requested a trade, but the team denied that. 476 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 2: Myers remains open to getting a deal done during the season, 477 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 2: so we'll see what happens there. That's around the NFL. 478 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 2: Presented by co Lo out of health, we have to 479 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 2: take a break.

And I think what 499 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 2: is apropos this week, Steve, is the task that the 500 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 2: coaches have on the defensive side of the ball, particularly 501 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 2: with their secondary The availability of Trudavius White end Christian 502 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 2: Benford is firmly up in the air. So let's discuss 503 00:27:53,760 --> 00:28:01,360 Speaker 2: the challenge of waiting on entrenched starters while also prepping 504 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 2: their backups in the event that they have to play 505 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 2: Sunday night. 506 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's about rep management and practice. It's about talking 507 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 1: to these guys, getting and making sure everybody is pouring 508 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 1: themselves into getting ready to play. Now. You've got to 509 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 1: You've got a real credible message to the entire room. Listen, dudes, 510 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 1: all you guys got to get ready. If you can 511 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: get healthy, get healthy, but you also got to get 512 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: ready for the game plan. You gotta get You're gonna 513 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: have to take mental reps. You guys that are taking 514 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 1: the real reps, you're you gotta think you're playing right. 515 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 1: It's the messaging from the coaching staff that get. That's 516 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: it's gonna be the key to this. All these guys 517 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: have it in them to be ready to play this weekend. 518 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: And there is obviously a real chance that you're gonna 519 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 1: have cornerback four, cornerback five, cornerback six playing on the field. 520 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: And they all got to be ready. Yeah, uh, it's yeah, 521 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: it's urgent. There's a sense of urgence see for all 522 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: of these guys, and there's there can be no complacency. 523 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 2: The other part of that, though, as far as the 524 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 2: coaches are concerned, is hey, if we have to start 525 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 2: JaMarcus and Dorian Strong at the outside corners, how does 526 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 2: our game plan have to change as well? There has 527 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 2: to be a contingency plan in place if you feel 528 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 2: like you do need to tweak a few things within 529 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 2: any inexperienced player on one side you know, and your 530 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 2: other you know, your other guy on the other side, 531 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 2: he doesn't play on defense. 532 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: You'd like to say, Okay, let's try and keep it 533 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: as simple as we can. You don't want to do 534 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: that against this offense because they'll carve you up if 535 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: they know what you're gonna do. If you start getting predictable. 536 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: You have to have enough in there to keep the 537 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: offense guessing about what you're running in the back end. 538 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: You also about a guy who you've known and watched 539 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: practice for like a month, and Dorian Strong, what's he 540 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: do best? What's he good at? Do we really even know? 541 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: Let's not ask him to do stuff he's not really 542 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: ready for what is that? Well, I don't know what 543 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 1: about what are the reps that he's taken. Well, he 544 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: took this, and you know it starts you go down 545 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: that rabbit hole. 546 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 2: Well did he execute play calls in the preseason for 547 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 2: this and this and this? 548 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to go down that rabbit hole of 549 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: dissecting how good he can play and talking to the 550 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: guy and how much has he improved? Where is he 551 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: better at? So all of that goes into this mix 552 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: of getting the team ready and let's face it, two, 553 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 1: you can't you can't build a game plan around one 554 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: guy and his inexperience and inconsistency or what. You don't know. 555 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 1: You got ten other guys that got to play, and 556 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: you got to turn loose and you got to play 557 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: to their strengths as well and weaknesses. So it's a lot. 558 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: It's a lot plus having to formulate a game plan 559 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: against an elite NFL offense with unique players, a unique makeup, 560 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 1: and a unique philosophy with you know, with all of 561 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: those problems that we just discussed. Yeah, it's the coaches 562 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: work overtime on it, no question about it, and they've 563 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: got and listen to they've got to have a Plan 564 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: A and then Plan B and then you know adjustment 565 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: Plan C. 566 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 2: Right, So it's all the wild adjusting through the course 567 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 2: of the game. 568 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 1: It goes on and on and on. So it not 569 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: having the guys you were counting on at this late junk, 570 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: at late stage of the preseason, and it's it's troubling, 571 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: it's a little unnerving. 572 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 2: But that is from the Coach's Office, presented by CfBT, 573 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 2: the official Office Technology company of the Buffalo Bills. We 574 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 2: got to get to the phone lines where we are 575 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 2: asking you today what's the most critical individual matchup in 576 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 2: Sunday's game with the Ravens eight oh three oh five 577 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 2: fifty one eight eight five fifty two five fifty And 578 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 2: we lead off today with Tom on the west side. 579 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 5: We got first time good afternoon, guys, hoping you're your brunt. 580 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, listen. 581 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 5: First, I want to apologize for nominating Billy Buffalo for 582 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 5: flag football because I said, what's this gonna? What's what 583 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 5: injury could he get? Bull is growing and now we're 584 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 5: prolific and growing injuries. So I'd like to withdraw that 585 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 5: statement if possible. 586 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, I think. 587 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 5: The biggest challenge. It's hard to come down to any 588 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 5: individual act. It's gonna be the wide receivers against the 589 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,719 Speaker 5: defensive backs on both sides of the field, because whoever 590 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 5: can stretch the field the most is going to be 591 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 5: able to open it up for the run game. I mean, 592 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 5: they're not going to have Isaiah likely, so if we 593 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 5: load the backs, that's one tight end that can't run 594 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 5: into the flats and kick. But they still got Mark 595 00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 5: andrews now as Keon Coleman is out. I want to 596 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 5: see what Samuel or Palmer can do to stretch the 597 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 5: field so that they can move them out so that 598 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 5: Cook can run do what he does best as Cook. 599 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I get it. 600 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks Tom. 601 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean, we'll have to see who 602 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 2: is up and who is down. But yeah, you know, 603 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 2: receivers are going to have a lot to say about 604 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 2: how this game winds up on Sunday night. I don't 605 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 2: think there's any debate about that. 606 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, And we've been talking about their defensive backfield all week. 607 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: They're full of number one yeah, first round pick, first 608 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: round picks, and they're all really athletic, really fast, and 609 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 1: it's you got to find a way to match up 610 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 1: with them. Keon not being one hundred percent is a crusher. 611 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: But because of the philosophy, and we saw this last year, 612 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:53,479 Speaker 1: if you're missing a guy, there's you know, like three 613 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: or four of the guys that can step into that gap. 614 00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: So they everybody plays, everybody eats, and you know, if 615 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: you're down a guy, then you should have enough slack 616 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: in your roster to fill in the void. So I'm 617 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,919 Speaker 1: that doesn't worry me, although the quality of their defense does. 618 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 1: I mean, they're good against anybody, So you're gonna have 619 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: to really really play well outside uh to make hay 620 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:20,439 Speaker 1: in the passing game. 621 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 2: It's a matchup league, as we know, and they got 622 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 2: good people to match up. So yeah, let's go to 623 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 2: Ryan in Toronto next. What's up Ryan, Chris Steve. 624 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:35,240 Speaker 6: Honestly, guys, I'm really concerned about the second our secondary. 625 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,720 Speaker 6: To be honest, I'm just keep saying I think Rayvends 626 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 6: are going to get to up the our secondary, and 627 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 6: I think he often has to be on the field 628 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 6: as much as possible. We deferent cannot be on the field. 629 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 6: The Ravens would just put up pine up numbers on 630 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,760 Speaker 6: our On our defense, we have the secondary, and also 631 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 6: what are you gonna do? How are you gonna how 632 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 6: you gonna spot stop? Dave Henry as well. It's really 633 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 6: tough cash for the bills, I think, and all the 634 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 6: guys even we are higher and new sent and conditioning 635 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 6: coach this year. 636 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, promoted from within Will Greenberg. 637 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 6: Yeah, Like it's really supposed to control all these injuries 638 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 6: in mission house. Like I don't understand that. I don't 639 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 6: know all these injuries happening not on the field but 640 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 6: training camp or pactice or when you're a home or whatever. 641 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 6: I'm just really concerned about all injuries and all this stuff. 642 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,359 Speaker 6: I'm not happy about it. All about the game going on Sunday, 643 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 6: and I thanks guys. 644 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: All right, thanks Ryan, I understand there's a lot to 645 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: be concerned about. You're right, their offense is really good 646 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: and we're there's a lot of unknowns about our secondary 647 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: right now. Not only was it coming in with the safeties, 648 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 1: you know, Wrap and Bishop haven't taken that many reps together. 649 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 1: The early returns on Bishop said, yeah, he's looking good. 650 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 1: We're ready, and he's the guy that they've been waiting 651 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,320 Speaker 1: to come in and plug in because he started to 652 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:01,360 Speaker 1: improve you've got guys like Dorian Strong shown great improvement, 653 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 1: but we didn't think he was going to be playing 654 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 1: in Week one. No, yes, you're right, it is. They 655 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 1: are a great offense and it's gonna be hard for 656 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,959 Speaker 1: our defense to keep a lid on them, particularly given 657 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 1: the unique set of running backs and quarterback that they 658 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 1: haven't let alone the fact that they threw for forty 659 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: touchdowns anyway last year's even with all the running game 660 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: that they did. And yeah, the strength, you're right, it 661 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: does seem to me systemic, right that there are a 662 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of soft tissue stuff this preseason, 663 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,439 Speaker 1: whether they're start they did something new or stop doing 664 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 1: something old, it seems to be a common contagious condition 665 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,880 Speaker 1: of pulling a soft tissue. So whatever they're doing, they 666 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 1: need to do more of something or less of something else. 667 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 2: And look, it's not just on the strength and conditioning. Yes, 668 00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 2: it's an all encompassing effort by sports science, strength and conditioning, 669 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 2: and the athletic cradle. 670 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,880 Speaker 1: Like they're doing something outlandish out of the box, like 671 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 1: nobody else is doing this and we're doing it, and 672 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,359 Speaker 1: all of a sudden something bad happens. I don't think 673 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 1: the other none of that's going on. Yeah. 674 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 2: The other part of it, too is the Bills are 675 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 2: known to be a team that practices at a high 676 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 2: rate of intensity. They try to mimic game speed in 677 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 2: the practice setting as much as any other team in 678 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 2: the league. And when you are pushing to that level, 679 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 2: things are going to go sometimes if a guy's up 680 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 2: on reps or whatever. And I would imagine that's part 681 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 2: of the reason we've seen some of this as well, 682 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,759 Speaker 2: Guys just going hard in practice because that's the way 683 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,800 Speaker 2: they practice here. So we'll have to see what comes 684 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 2: of it when we get to the end of the 685 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,959 Speaker 2: week and what the final injury report says. But yeah, 686 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 2: Keon Coleman a new ad. I understand the concern about 687 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 2: the secondary. I think it's valid. So cross your fingers 688 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 2: and toes for Sunday night. Let's go to Anthony in 689 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 2: New York City. Next. How are we doing, Anthony? 690 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 5: How you doing, Chris? 691 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:02,879 Speaker 7: Are you doing? 692 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: Steve good? Doing good? 693 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 8: Look, I still had a I've still had a bad 694 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 8: take in my mouth from moving to a Kandy game. 695 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,280 Speaker 2: Now, yeah, new season. 696 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:18,760 Speaker 6: Now, I know, like I said, guy, they're both talking. 697 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 8: Second day was to get tested, get the pressure on 698 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 8: the linebacker front four to get to get to Lawn 699 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,280 Speaker 8: Jackson him throw him get company in that pocket. 700 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I hear you on that. And as a 701 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 2: matter of fact, Steve, that was going to be my 702 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 2: most critical matchup. It's Bosa against Ronnie Stands. 703 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 5: Yeah. 704 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 1: I think I was gonna say the exact same thing. 705 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 1: Bosa is healthy, he's ready to go, and when he's healthy, 706 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 1: he has been an elite pass rusher in his career. 707 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,760 Speaker 1: He's a ten year guy now, he's got a fresh 708 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 1: change of scenery. He's in a new situation and oddly 709 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: for a guy who has, you know, been a guy 710 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 1: who's had a lot of pulled muscles and all that 711 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 1: he's aside from the one he had right before OTAs 712 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: or whatever. Yeah, he's been incredibly healthy through the preseason. 713 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:12,360 Speaker 1: His ability to put pressure on Lamar could be huge 714 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,360 Speaker 1: in this game. Could be huge. 715 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 2: We'll see and look, if you want to help your secondary, 716 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 2: we hear coach McDermott mentioned it all the time. You 717 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:26,279 Speaker 2: have to marry your rush with your coverage, and you 718 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,919 Speaker 2: might be leaning on your rush packages to help out 719 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 2: the guys on the back end and force Lamar to 720 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 2: speed up his decision making process on where to go 721 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,240 Speaker 2: with the football. You do that by getting a consistent 722 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,440 Speaker 2: pass rush on him. But even then you have to 723 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,920 Speaker 2: be disciplined in your rush lanes. You can't give him 724 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,279 Speaker 2: an escape outlet because he'll be out of the gate 725 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 2: and running twenty yards downfield, and then you have a 726 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 2: whole another set of problems. So I think the Bills 727 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 2: defense is going to have to depend heavily on the 728 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 2: front floor to get consistent pressure on Lamar, particularly in 729 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 2: long down and distant situations, to help those guys on 730 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 2: the back end so they don't have to cover as long, 731 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:08,399 Speaker 2: especially if you're starting gun. 732 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 1: When you can get quick pressure consistently with the fewest 733 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 1: number of guys, that's that's as good as you're gonna be. 734 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the magic elixir for stopping an offense. 735 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,720 Speaker 1: The Bills have been unable to do that in years past. 736 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 1: Maybe this year will be different. 737 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 2: We have to take a break here, but when we 738 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 2: come back, Aaron and Oregon is gonna lead us off. 739 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 2: As we're asking you, what's the most critical individual matchup 740 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 2: in Sunday's game with the Ravens, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker, 741 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 2: comany Alive from the Wegmans on McKinley Parkway in Hamburg. 742 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 2: We're back with more after this on one Bill's Live. 743 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 2: Stay tuned at all I Care and the Buffalo Bills 744 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 2: are teaming up to called military veterans who are in 745 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 2: need of vision correction.

What's up Aaron? 764 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 9: Hey, guys, Hey, thanks so much for taking McCall. I 765 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 9: got a few things today, but I wanted to start 766 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 9: by saying that it was so fun to see Steve 767 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 9: on the Hard Knocks podcast with Ceciliano. Was that pretty 768 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:17,239 Speaker 9: fun to do? 769 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 4: Steve? 770 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Andrew's a good dude. And they called me 771 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: and asked me, you know, they always ask you for 772 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:27,399 Speaker 1: like ten minutes, that's what I got. And the Hard 773 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 1: Knocks thing was a big deal. You kind of you 774 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:34,880 Speaker 1: kind of did lose sight of the fact that they 775 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 1: were hanging around. They kind of did start to blend in. 776 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:39,959 Speaker 1: One of the smart things they do is dressing Bill's gear, 777 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,319 Speaker 1: well Bill's colors anyway, and so it looks like it's 778 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 1: just team employees going around. We've got another you know, 779 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:48,239 Speaker 1: we've got our own you know, creative wing in the 780 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 1: building anyway, So we were kind of around while they 781 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 1: were shooting it, and then you know, and all the 782 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:56,759 Speaker 1: stuff we keep talking about, this Hard Knocks thing that 783 00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 1: the last episode was Tuesday Night. Never in the entire 784 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 1: higher run of the five episodes was there any real drama. 785 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: A lot of fun stories like Jimmy Charlow and Joe 786 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 1: Andreeson and all the guys, but there was no drama, 787 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 1: no tension. 788 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 9: Which is good. I mean, I like it. I like 789 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 9: that the bills are all kind of showing their friendship, 790 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 9: going for each other, that kind of stuff. And it 791 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 9: actually got my wife to be more of a fan 792 00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 9: because she got that like personal view of it. And 793 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 9: then when Josh was talking about visualizing the parade, she 794 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 9: was like, we should go, we should go. 795 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:36,760 Speaker 4: The breaks. 796 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,480 Speaker 9: I mean, it hasn't happened yet, but I'm the same way. 797 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 9: I like when I went to Buffalo in twenty two, 798 00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 9: I took a picture of myself on the steps and 799 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 9: I was visualizing it. So now my wife's stepped the 800 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,239 Speaker 9: disease too, And I think hard knocksidery job of like 801 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:54,439 Speaker 9: showing the personalities. So made a fan of Fair more. 802 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,319 Speaker 9: And then the couple other topics I wanted to talk 803 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:02,360 Speaker 9: about was for the individual matchups, I'm kind of looking 804 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 9: at whoever's covering Mark Andrews because I feel like he's 805 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 9: going to really want to have a good game, and 806 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,399 Speaker 9: he's kind of their X factor anyway. So whether it's 807 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:16,839 Speaker 9: Kerol Bernard or one of our safeties, you know, whoever's 808 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,840 Speaker 9: having to cover him over the middle, I think is 809 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 9: going to be important. And then I just somehow I 810 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:25,840 Speaker 9: think it's going to be a high scoring game. So 811 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:30,000 Speaker 9: I predicted forty one. Just you know, our defense is 812 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 9: banged up, and I think both offenses are going to 813 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 9: be wanting to put on a show. 814 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 2: All right, that's a good take eron, So thanks for 815 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 2: the phone call. The tight end matchup is an interesting 816 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 2: one that you bring up. And the reason I say 817 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 2: that is historically Lamar Jackson his preference is to throw 818 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 2: it over the middle of the field between the numbers. 819 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:57,280 Speaker 2: He is deadly accurate there. He earlier in his career 820 00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,760 Speaker 2: was not great throwing outside the numbers. He has improved 821 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 2: in that area. I think that's safe to say. But 822 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,479 Speaker 2: if he has his choice, he likes working the middle 823 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,319 Speaker 2: of the field better. I think he just feels more 824 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:12,040 Speaker 2: comfortable and confident throwing to that area of the field. So, yes, 825 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 2: that matchup does become critically important, and you know, I'm 826 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 2: expecting Taylor Rap to draw that assignment an awful lot. 827 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 2: Maybe it's Bernard on occasion, or Milano who's covered tight 828 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 2: ends in the past and has looked great in the preseason. 829 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 2: But yeah, Andrews is he didn't have a huge year 830 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 2: last year in terms of receptions and yards, but he 831 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 2: did have eleven touchdowns for them last year in the 832 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,480 Speaker 2: regular season, even if most of them came in the 833 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 2: second half of the year. He got off to a 834 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:42,760 Speaker 2: slow start. But yeah, he'll be front and center, especially 835 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:44,759 Speaker 2: with likely not expected to play right. 836 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, they they use big people really well in Baltimore. 837 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,759 Speaker 1: You know, their own Ricard is the only big time 838 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: fullback in the league. He's the biggest fullback probably in 839 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,880 Speaker 1: the history the regular designated. 840 00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 2: Full this side of the refrigerator. 841 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,719 Speaker 1: Right, the guy who's actually listed as a running back. 842 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:06,840 Speaker 1: So he's They know how to use big people in Baltimore, 843 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 1: and tight ends are a part of that. Yeah, Andrews, 844 00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: that's a good call by you. You think about it. 845 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,759 Speaker 1: There's had to be a There has had to be 846 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 1: a ton of conversations about the way their season ended 847 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 1: and how they want to avenge that because they really do, 848 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:27,280 Speaker 1: and what they're willing to do to make that happen. Certainly, 849 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,200 Speaker 1: they're not going to go outside the norms or anything 850 00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 1: like that, but they want to exercise some demons that 851 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:38,880 Speaker 1: ended their season a few months ago, and Mark Andrews 852 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 1: is a great place to start. 853 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 2: We are very quickly up against the break again, so 854 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 2: we've got to step aside here when we come back. 855 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 2: Our number two begins with our usual Friday guest, but 856 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:54,760 Speaker 2: he's joining us a day early.

As we get 874 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 2: closer and closer to this one, we get a little 875 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,880 Speaker 2: bit more nervous, just due to the precarious nature of 876 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 2: the health of Buffalo's secondary I'm sure you saw the 877 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 2: Tredavius White did not practice yesterday. Christian Benford is limited 878 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:46,399 Speaker 2: and if those two, for whatever reason, cannot go Sunday night, 879 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:50,760 Speaker 2: you're starting outside corners are JaMarcus Ingram and rookie sixth 880 00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:54,239 Speaker 2: round pick Dorian Strong. How concerned would you be? 881 00:48:56,640 --> 00:49:00,320 Speaker 4: You'd have to be concerned. Although I love Dorian. I 882 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,319 Speaker 4: think he's a really good prospect, but he's a rookie. 883 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 4: So yeah, you'd have to be concerned. But I guess 884 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,080 Speaker 4: we'll have to wait and see. I mean, what was 885 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 4: in you know, I guess I went back and I 886 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:14,759 Speaker 4: looked at that the Visional Playoff game last year, just 887 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,640 Speaker 4: to try to get a feel for, you know, for coaches, 888 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:19,960 Speaker 4: because coaches do a lot of the same things, you 889 00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:25,040 Speaker 4: know that they that they normally do with an odd game, guys. 890 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:26,800 Speaker 4: I mean that was the game where Josh Allen I 891 00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 4: think threw for less than one hundred and thirty yards, 892 00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:30,680 Speaker 4: was it not he did? That was not a big 893 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 4: passing game, and they ran the ball really really well 894 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 4: against a Ravens defense that normally does not give up 895 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 4: votes that kind of yardage, and they really kind of 896 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:43,720 Speaker 4: control the game on the ground. 897 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. And I wouldn't be surprised if they employ a 898 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 2: similar tactic, especially if they are that short handed on 899 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:56,239 Speaker 2: the defensive end in the secondary, like control clock, run 900 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 2: the ball, limit the Ravens number of possessions short. 901 00:49:59,320 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 1: In the game. 902 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean, god, they they played. They had 903 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:07,040 Speaker 4: a ton of snaps in that game. I mean, they 904 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 4: they played. They ran the ball really really well, you know, 905 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 4: I think they only had one pass play of over 906 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 4: twenty yards and that came on the first possession of 907 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 4: the game to Shakira. Other than that, the passing game, 908 00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:23,799 Speaker 4: you know, was was really almost a non factor in 909 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:27,240 Speaker 4: the game. It would be hard to believe, Brownie, even 910 00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:29,160 Speaker 4: if they feel that they have to come out and 911 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 4: run the ball with both sustainability and ideally some explosiveness 912 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 4: that the game would play out the same way. I mean, 913 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:39,319 Speaker 4: when was the last time, you know, Josh Allen threw 914 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,240 Speaker 4: for you know, less than one hundred and thirty yards? 915 00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he was Yeah, it was sixteen to 916 00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 1: twenty two for one to twenty seven, and you know, 917 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:52,759 Speaker 1: they ran the ball thirty forty six times. You know, 918 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 1: they ran the ball for see, yeah, twenty seven and 919 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,880 Speaker 1: I know thirty six times, not forty six. They ran 920 00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 1: both thirty six times in that game. Yeah, right, yeah, yeah, 921 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,840 Speaker 1: So it was it was a yeah, and I think 922 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 1: you look at it, that's exactly what they were trying 923 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:13,440 Speaker 1: to do last year in that playoff game. Was shortened 924 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 1: the game and help their defense against an offense that 925 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:20,040 Speaker 1: was you know, they they threw for forty touchdowns during 926 00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 1: the year. They ran for a bunch of touchdowns during 927 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,840 Speaker 1: the year, they you know, and they snapped off some 928 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:30,319 Speaker 1: big runs against the Bills defense. Really they just wanted 929 00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:32,839 Speaker 1: to keep Lamar and Derrick Henry on the sideline, so 930 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:35,760 Speaker 1: they they were just committed to chewing up the clock 931 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:39,799 Speaker 1: and shortening the game, do you I mean, it seems 932 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 1: they're not that different now, right, I mean that may 933 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:46,000 Speaker 1: be what happens right now, and that's. 934 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,279 Speaker 4: A nice plan. But we know that the Ravens are 935 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:50,439 Speaker 4: very good on defense, so there will be a plan 936 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 4: B Steve obviously, you know, if they come out and 937 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:55,799 Speaker 4: you know, it becomes third and nine on the first 938 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:58,560 Speaker 4: three possessions, you know, then it'll it'll be you know, 939 00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 4: they're not going to just keep doing that, you know, 940 00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 4: but h and obviously they've got a great quarterback, you know. 941 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:07,600 Speaker 4: I think the feeling is and one reason that they 942 00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:09,880 Speaker 4: went out and got Josh Palmer and the hope is 943 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,239 Speaker 4: that keyon Coleman. Is Kan Coleman injured as well or 944 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:12,959 Speaker 4: is he going to play? 945 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 2: He's got a groin injury just popped up on the 946 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 2: injury report yesterday, so I don't know if he happened 947 00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,840 Speaker 2: in practice yesterday or when, but he's limited. 948 00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:24,759 Speaker 4: Again, maybe not for this game, but I mean in 949 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,120 Speaker 4: an ideal world as they go forward in the season. 950 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,440 Speaker 4: I think one of the things you're hoping because we 951 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:33,480 Speaker 4: know how good Shakir is, but he's a slot receiver basically, 952 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:36,280 Speaker 4: that's what he is. He's not necessarily a winner outside 953 00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 4: the numbers. One on one is you need to have 954 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:41,960 Speaker 4: some winners on the outside. I mean, this is a league, yes, 955 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 4: where you can scheme the past game really well against 956 00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 4: zone coverage, but at some point when teams play man, 957 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 4: you've got to be able to have some winners, you know. 958 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:54,440 Speaker 4: And I think that that's one reason they drafted Coleman 959 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,439 Speaker 4: at six', three one reason they Got, palmer who's also 960 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:00,239 Speaker 4: got really good size and can. Run you. KNOW i 961 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,920 Speaker 4: think at some point that has to become a factor 962 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 4: in your. 963 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:07,160 Speaker 2: Offense RIGHT i want to talk to you more About 964 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:10,920 Speaker 2: buffalo's defense because obviously The bills this offseason saw that 965 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:14,759 Speaker 2: saw that as a. Deficiency and if you're going to 966 00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 2: help those guys on the back end your rush with 967 00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:21,400 Speaker 2: just four better beyond. POINT i know The ravens have 968 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 2: a good offensive. LINE i don't know IF i would 969 00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:26,799 Speaker 2: call it out, standing ALTHOUGH i like both of their 970 00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:29,400 Speaker 2: tackles a. Lot but talk to me a little bit 971 00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:33,240 Speaker 2: about what you're anticipating from The Bosa Ronnie stanley, matchup 972 00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 2: BECAUSE i really think that's a critical one in this. 973 00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:38,920 Speaker 4: Game, yeah, WELL i think. That, look if you go 974 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,400 Speaker 4: back to that playoff, Game, brownie they were actually pretty 975 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:45,439 Speaker 4: aggressive with their pressure concepts in that. Game they did 976 00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 4: not play. Soft, now that could have been a function 977 00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:50,040 Speaker 4: the fact that they didn't believe they could get there with, 978 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:53,240 Speaker 4: four because that was an issue last season as we had. Discussed, 979 00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:55,640 Speaker 4: yes there was times last year and through the. Offseason 980 00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:59,239 Speaker 4: ideally with what they've done with Bringing bosa in AND i, 981 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:02,439 Speaker 4: agree is you hope he can win those one on 982 00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 4: one matchups or at least Impact Lamar. Jackson he's not 983 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:07,520 Speaker 4: going to get seven, sacks but you, know at least 984 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 4: be a, factor you, know and Impact. Lamar but not only, 985 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,360 Speaker 4: that but they drafted the two defensive, tackles so you, 986 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,840 Speaker 4: know the hope is that they can get some at 987 00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:22,120 Speaker 4: least exert pressure with, four and especially if it has 988 00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,880 Speaker 4: to be strong And ingram playing, corner you're probably not 989 00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 4: going to be real comfortable with a high blitz percentage 990 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:33,800 Speaker 4: because somewhere along the, line whether you're playing zone match 991 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:36,600 Speaker 4: or pure, man your outside corners are gonna have to match. 992 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:39,920 Speaker 4: Up so they're going to definitely want to feel that 993 00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 4: they can at least exert pressure with four and then 994 00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 4: have seven in coverage where at least the numbers favor. 995 00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:49,759 Speaker 1: Them, well let's flip it, around and he took a 996 00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:53,080 Speaker 1: look At buffalo's offense. CERTAINLY i mean they were no 997 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:55,440 Speaker 1: shrinking violets over. THERE i mean they were scoring thirty 998 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 1: points a. Game they they tied a. Franchise they scored 999 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:02,319 Speaker 1: thirty points eight times last, year set a at least 1000 00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:06,120 Speaker 1: tied a franchise record for that or you, know so 1001 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 1: how do The. Bills how does The bills offense? Matchup 1002 00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 1: because certainly they feel like they could they can do 1003 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,440 Speaker 1: about whatever they, want do it pretty, successfully at least 1004 00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:16,880 Speaker 1: right out of the. 1005 00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:20,279 Speaker 4: Gate, YEAH i mean they're gonna feel you, KNOW i 1006 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 4: agree With. BROWNIE i believe that they'll come out and 1007 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:25,319 Speaker 4: they'll try to be effective running the. FOOTBALL i think 1008 00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:27,520 Speaker 4: they feel that that's a true identity of who they, 1009 00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:31,319 Speaker 4: are you, know whether they go heavy with six to zer, 1010 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,239 Speaker 4: linemen whether it's you, know a tight, end whatever they. 1011 00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:36,880 Speaker 4: Do you, KNOW i think they're going to try to 1012 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:39,239 Speaker 4: be a physical. TEAM i don't think they're going to 1013 00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:41,439 Speaker 4: come out and toss it all over the. Yar, now 1014 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:43,560 Speaker 4: maybe they'll take, us you, know a shot or two 1015 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 4: early and see what. Happens BUT i would think that 1016 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:50,840 Speaker 4: they would view this game as as let's be, balanced 1017 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:54,360 Speaker 4: let's try to control, clock let's let's control the pace 1018 00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:56,880 Speaker 4: and tempo of the. GAME i think you, Know, steve 1019 00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 4: you you understand this having played is you, KNOW i 1020 00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:02,239 Speaker 4: think that that's an overlooked element of offensive. Football you 1021 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:05,200 Speaker 4: want to control the pace of the. Game everybody talks 1022 00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:07,640 Speaker 4: about big explosive, plays and there's no question if you 1023 00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:09,439 Speaker 4: can get, those you're not going to turn them. Down 1024 00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:13,840 Speaker 4: but you, know they don't come that, often and you 1025 00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:16,400 Speaker 4: really would love to be able to control the manner 1026 00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:19,480 Speaker 4: in which the game is. Played and that's what they 1027 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:21,960 Speaker 4: did last year in the playoff. Game and obviously The 1028 00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:24,279 Speaker 4: ravens almost you, know came back to, win but the 1029 00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:26,440 Speaker 4: point is The ravens had to come back they were. 1030 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:29,239 Speaker 4: Behind so you, KNOW i think The bills would love 1031 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:30,280 Speaker 4: to be in that situation. 1032 00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 2: Again, yeah and you, know not for, nothing the run 1033 00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:38,399 Speaker 2: game that The bills employed in that game was done 1034 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:40,719 Speaker 2: to the number one run defense in football last. Year 1035 00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,399 Speaker 2: so they're going to go in there with some with 1036 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:46,319 Speaker 2: some confidence that they can run the ball on a 1037 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:48,880 Speaker 2: very Good ravens run front that was the best in 1038 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:52,400 Speaker 2: the league last. Year, yeah taking that a step, Further 1039 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:55,319 Speaker 2: taking that a step, Further, GREG i want to talk 1040 00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 2: a little bit about fifth round Pick Jackson, hawes because 1041 00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 2: this is a play point that they have THAT i 1042 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,040 Speaker 2: think they have plans. FOR i think we're actually going 1043 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:08,640 Speaker 2: to see less Of Alec anderson this year than we 1044 00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:11,160 Speaker 2: did last, year AND i think it's because of the 1045 00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:14,720 Speaker 2: presence Of Jackson. Hawes Joe brady addressed the media today 1046 00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:16,520 Speaker 2: and this is not the first Time i've heard, this 1047 00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:19,880 Speaker 2: but he said it again. Today he is the best 1048 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 2: blocking tight end we have ever. Evaluated those were his words. 1049 00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 2: Today the offensive lineman here speak glowingly of him and 1050 00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 2: his ability to block in the run. GAME i think 1051 00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 2: there's a very good chance we're going to see an 1052 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:36,880 Speaker 2: awful lot Of Jackson hawes On sunday. 1053 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 4: Night, well AND i would agree with that because at 1054 00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 4: the end of the, day he still is a receiver 1055 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:46,080 Speaker 4: Where Alec anderson is. Not so you just have to 1056 00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:48,080 Speaker 4: see that a little bit. Differently you, know he may 1057 00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 4: not be the best receiving tight end we, see and 1058 00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,920 Speaker 4: he's certainly, not but he's still a receiver AND i 1059 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 4: think that that's that's a really critical. Thing the other, 1060 00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 4: thing AND i think this is important in the way 1061 00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 4: defenses have to play against The. Bills The bills have, 1062 00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,880 Speaker 4: shown and more and more teams are doing, this and 1063 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:08,680 Speaker 4: you can really do it effectively when your quarterback is 1064 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:11,200 Speaker 4: a factor as a. Runner when The bills get to 1065 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:14,640 Speaker 4: the fifty yard line and into plus, territory when it's 1066 00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 4: fourth down and essentially three yards or, less they go for, 1067 00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:22,560 Speaker 4: It so that changes third. Down that changes let's say 1068 00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:26,240 Speaker 4: third and four to eight, yards which for defenses is 1069 00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:30,800 Speaker 4: almost one hundred percent a passing, down so they play the. 1070 00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:34,320 Speaker 4: Pass The bills do not have to throw the ball 1071 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:37,560 Speaker 4: necessarily on third and six because if they get to 1072 00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:40,439 Speaker 4: fourth and two and they're at the plus forty two yard, Line, 1073 00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 4: Steve they're going to go for, It so it. CHANGES 1074 00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:46,160 Speaker 4: i have great conversation with one of the best decoordinators 1075 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 4: in the league on this exact topic this, offseason and he, 1076 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:53,440 Speaker 4: said that is a real problem defensively because it changes 1077 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:56,200 Speaker 4: the way you have to think about playing defense on 1078 00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 4: third and four to, eight and it just changes your whole. 1079 00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 4: Approach AND i think The bills fall into that category. 1080 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:07,480 Speaker 1: Offensively and we've talked about it a lot about how 1081 00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:09,920 Speaker 1: The bills were so balanced last, year And i'll ask you, 1082 00:59:09,960 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 1: this we haven't really talked about this aspect of, it 1083 00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 1: AND i, said you, know And josh has scored more 1084 00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 1: touchdowns at a quarterback than in the first eight seasons 1085 00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:19,880 Speaker 1: of his career than anybody in the. History and he's 1086 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:22,080 Speaker 1: just starting his eighth, year, Right, SO i, mean the 1087 00:59:22,120 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 1: guy's off the charts scoring. Touchdowns and last, year how 1088 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,360 Speaker 1: much of their run game was due to? Them they've, 1089 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:32,240 Speaker 1: scored you, know forty two this, week forty eight the other, 1090 00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:35,919 Speaker 1: week thirty five this week just handing it off late 1091 00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:38,200 Speaker 1: in the. Game is? It are we kind of going 1092 00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:40,720 Speaker 1: overboard too much with the balance that they ended up, 1093 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 1: with knowing you, know they scored their points and then 1094 00:59:43,400 --> 00:59:45,280 Speaker 1: started to run the ball late in games And Mitch 1095 00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:46,000 Speaker 1: trubisky was in. 1096 00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 4: There, well they, certainly, NOW i, mean they certainly, didn't you, 1097 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:53,240 Speaker 4: know not make it to the Super bowl because of. 1098 00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:55,960 Speaker 4: THAT i, mean you, know look they the game they 1099 00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:57,800 Speaker 4: lost to The, chiefs didn't they put up twenty? NINE 1100 00:59:57,840 --> 00:59:59,680 Speaker 4: i wasn't at thirty two to twenty? NINE i, mean 1101 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:03,880 Speaker 4: scores thirty plus a. Game you, know The Josh allen 1102 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:07,720 Speaker 4: factor in the run game is. Big it's. SITUATIONAL i, mean, 1103 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 4: look even in this the last divisional playoff game against 1104 01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:15,080 Speaker 4: The raven they ended a, DRIVE i believe with Two 1105 01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:17,400 Speaker 4: Josh allen runs when they get in the you, know 1106 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:19,600 Speaker 4: in the red. Zone he's a huge factor in the run. 1107 01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:22,080 Speaker 4: Game you've got to defend. It you've got to defend it. 1108 01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:25,600 Speaker 4: Situationally as we, said fourth, down if it's fourth and 1109 01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:28,200 Speaker 4: four or, less you've got to Defend Josh allen running the. 1110 01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:32,360 Speaker 4: Football it's a major major factor in their, offense and 1111 01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:35,720 Speaker 4: it becomes a major factor in how teams have to defend, 1112 01:00:35,760 --> 01:00:38,400 Speaker 4: them and it makes it harder to defend. Them, so 1113 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:41,680 Speaker 4: you know what was interesting in that in that last 1114 01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:45,360 Speaker 4: game IS i don't, KNOW i don't know If Josh 1115 01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:48,440 Speaker 4: allen had to scramble in that, game And i'm not 1116 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 4: even sure there was a play where he ran out 1117 01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:53,320 Speaker 4: to his right like he often. Does so that was 1118 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:56,320 Speaker 4: what was fascinating about that last you, know that playoff. 1119 01:00:56,360 --> 01:01:00,280 Speaker 1: Game, yeah he had ten rushes for twenty. Yards his 1120 01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 1: long was seven, right and two of them were for, 1121 01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:06,240 Speaker 1: touchdowns which were those you know pushes into the end. 1122 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:09,600 Speaker 1: Zone so, yeah it wasn't like we have seen it 1123 01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 1: other times where has a long of twenty five and you, 1124 01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:17,000 Speaker 1: know eleven carries for you, know seventy, yards wasn't one 1125 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:17,840 Speaker 1: of those games at. 1126 01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:21,200 Speaker 4: All, yeah he. Didn't he did. NOT i just looked 1127 01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 4: back at my notes from WHEN i went through the game. 1128 01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:25,200 Speaker 4: Again he did not have a scramble in that. Game 1129 01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:27,320 Speaker 4: so those ten runs were all designed. 1130 01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:28,840 Speaker 3: Calls. 1131 01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:33,600 Speaker 2: Right the last One i've got for, You greg Concerned Zay. 1132 01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:37,479 Speaker 2: Flowers obviously he missed that playoff game last. Year how 1133 01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:42,640 Speaker 2: does he alter or diversify The ravens passing game knowing 1134 01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 2: he will be in the lineup this time. 1135 01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 4: Around he's a big, Deal, brownie big deal because he 1136 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:50,840 Speaker 4: does not line up in one. Place he's a motion movement. 1137 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:54,600 Speaker 4: Guy he lines up in multiple locations within the. Formation 1138 01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:59,600 Speaker 4: he's has a vertical, ability so he adds that dimension 1139 01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:02,320 Speaker 4: to their past. Game he's a big. DEAL i mean 1140 01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:04,520 Speaker 4: that was that was a big loss that he did 1141 01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:06,720 Speaker 4: not play. Again that doesn't mean they're going to win the, 1142 01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:09,040 Speaker 4: game but you, know he's you, know if if it 1143 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:11,919 Speaker 4: is ingram and strong on the, outside then that that's 1144 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:15,400 Speaker 4: something they'll look to exploit without. Question. Uh he and 1145 01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:17,720 Speaker 4: he's he's a major fan and he's really good run after. 1146 01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 4: Catch so he's one of those guys you got to 1147 01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 4: get on the. Ground you know and, look as much 1148 01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:24,200 Speaker 4: AS i Like Cole, bishop you know you'd have to 1149 01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:25,920 Speaker 4: think that they're going to look to to try to 1150 01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:28,720 Speaker 4: exploit him as. WELL i, mean he's he's not a veteran. 1151 01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 4: Player he hasn't played a lot of. Football so you 1152 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:34,160 Speaker 4: know they there's there are potentially some issues on the 1153 01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:37,040 Speaker 4: back end that you know we'll, see which you, know, 1154 01:02:37,280 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 4: again to your, Point brownie leads you to believe that 1155 01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:42,720 Speaker 4: they would really like to be able to control the 1156 01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:47,080 Speaker 4: pace and, tempo control time of. Possession, obviously to do, 1157 01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:49,440 Speaker 4: that you've got to score touchdowns because the last thing 1158 01:02:49,480 --> 01:02:51,320 Speaker 4: you want to do is middle of the second. Quarter 1159 01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:54,360 Speaker 4: you've controlled the whole game and it's six.' three you, 1160 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:56,840 Speaker 4: Know that, You, know steve you know that's not a. Good, 1161 01:02:56,840 --> 01:02:58,640 Speaker 4: feeling no. 1162 01:02:58,800 --> 01:03:01,520 Speaker 1: It's not that's a that's A Old bill parcell's way of. 1163 01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:03,320 Speaker 1: DOING things i think that's What The New england patriots 1164 01:03:03,320 --> 01:03:05,440 Speaker 1: are gonna look like. This year they're gonna they're gonna 1165 01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 1: be looking like they, look terrible but it's nineteen to 1166 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:12,280 Speaker 1: twenty one late in the, third, quarter right they're just 1167 01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:15,040 Speaker 1: never gonna. GO away i think that's what this game might. 1168 01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:19,240 Speaker 1: Look LIKE greg i don't think it's gonna be a 1169 01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:21,640 Speaker 1: forty four to forty. TWO game i think it's gonna 1170 01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:24,160 Speaker 1: be more like that playoff game was, last week mid 1171 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:29,400 Speaker 1: twenties or or, you know low twenties games with both. 1172 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:31,000 Speaker 1: OF them i think it's gonna be a one score 1173 01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:34,320 Speaker 1: game and we'll see if who can make a play at. The, 1174 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:37,760 Speaker 1: END now i do Think the ravens have the better 1175 01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:41,520 Speaker 1: roster and they're. MORE proven i Think the bills just 1176 01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:43,720 Speaker 1: have more. Question marks and that's why you really have 1177 01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:45,480 Speaker 1: to look At the ravens and think they're gonna be 1178 01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:47,320 Speaker 1: so angry if they don't walk out of here with, 1179 01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 1: a win just because of all the question Marks the 1180 01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:53,800 Speaker 1: bills have on the. Defensive, side yeah and you don't 1181 01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:55,920 Speaker 1: know the answer to these questions to totally the first 1182 01:03:55,960 --> 01:03:56,520 Speaker 1: couple of years. 1183 01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:58,600 Speaker 4: Are played that's the THING that i just. Don't know, 1184 01:03:59,120 --> 01:03:59,439 Speaker 4: you know. 1185 01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:03,080 Speaker 1: They may, BE great i, Mean, this, yeah yeah these 1186 01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:05,280 Speaker 1: young players That beat, bill's defense they may. Be great 1187 01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:07,440 Speaker 1: they may turn into a bunch of really good players 1188 01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:09,880 Speaker 1: and court all that stuff, may happen but we don't know. 1189 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:13,800 Speaker 4: That, yet, No no and which, you know and by, 1190 01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:15,920 Speaker 4: the way is another reason they could come out and 1191 01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:18,000 Speaker 4: think we got to. Score thirty you never know how 1192 01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:20,440 Speaker 4: they're thinking about how they have. To play, you know 1193 01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:22,400 Speaker 4: we can sit here and we can try to speculate 1194 01:04:22,480 --> 01:04:24,640 Speaker 4: and be rational, about it but you just don't know 1195 01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 4: the answer, to That. 1196 01:04:26,720 --> 01:04:30,080 Speaker 2: Right, yeah greg thanks as always for.

The 1234 01:06:12,320 --> 01:06:15,200 Speaker 2: ravens sunday Night to Mark In, west seneca, we go? What's? 1235 01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:15,360 Speaker 7: Up? 1236 01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:15,560 Speaker 1: Mark? 1237 01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:19,960 Speaker 10: Hey guys You talk you guys talked touchdown a little Bit. 1238 01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:25,720 Speaker 10: With greg the critical MATCHUP that i, THINK is i 1239 01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:29,680 Speaker 10: think it's going To Be. Dalton kincaid For the bills 1240 01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 10: to win, this game in, my mind they absolutely have 1241 01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 10: to win time of possession, number ONE and I think 1242 01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:42,440 Speaker 10: I think dalton's going to be very critical in being 1243 01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:45,960 Speaker 10: consistent and moving the sticks and big on. Third down 1244 01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:48,560 Speaker 10: and then another aspect that also ties into this a 1245 01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:50,800 Speaker 10: little BIT which i don't think anybody has talked about 1246 01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:54,840 Speaker 10: yet leading up to. This game the pensiant For THE 1247 01:06:55,000 --> 01:07:01,880 Speaker 10: ravens dbs to, mug grab beat, up RECEIVERS and I 1248 01:07:01,920 --> 01:07:05,160 Speaker 10: Know john harbaugh has said that is a strategy is 1249 01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:09,680 Speaker 10: there they forced referees to, Throw flags and if they're 1250 01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:12,720 Speaker 10: going to be physical about wide receivers and they're going 1251 01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:15,640 Speaker 10: to slow him down and the referees don't call and, 1252 01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:20,360 Speaker 10: throw flags this could really be Critical that dalton has 1253 01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 10: a really really. Big game so that's my thought. On 1254 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:29,240 Speaker 10: it so what do what you? Guys? Think, Thanks, YEAH. 1255 01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:30,000 Speaker 2: No i think. 1256 01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:33,320 Speaker 1: It's valid we had the little conversation yesterday about that, 1257 01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:34,360 Speaker 1: same Thing And kim. 1258 01:07:34,240 --> 01:07:36,880 Speaker 2: Kaid was not the player that he was his rookie 1259 01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:39,160 Speaker 2: year because he was running on two bad knees. Last 1260 01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:42,040 Speaker 2: season so he couldn't have the same impact that we 1261 01:07:42,160 --> 01:07:45,080 Speaker 2: have become accustomed to seeing from him in his. Rookie 1262 01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:48,680 Speaker 2: season he's healthy now and hopefully he is a difference 1263 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:52,560 Speaker 2: maker for this offense. Being, healthy so and what you 1264 01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:55,200 Speaker 2: said About the baltimore defensive backs. Is true it is 1265 01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:57,160 Speaker 2: a tactic that they use and they have leaned on 1266 01:07:57,320 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 2: heavily During the horrball era when their defense was winning 1267 01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:03,520 Speaker 2: super bowls, for him both In The joe flacco era 1268 01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:06,080 Speaker 2: and In The ray lewis era early in, his career 1269 01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:10,120 Speaker 2: they get down in the red zone and they just 1270 01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:14,200 Speaker 2: keep taking penalties because they'd rather take a penalty than give. 1271 01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:18,559 Speaker 1: A touchdown so unless you score a touchdown with a 1272 01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:22,120 Speaker 1: guy hanging on you and decline, the penalty you're not scoring. 1273 01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:26,200 Speaker 1: The touchdown so it's a tactic, they use and they 1274 01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:31,200 Speaker 1: are unafraid to force you into a field goal by 1275 01:08:31,280 --> 01:08:34,560 Speaker 1: taking penalties until you make a mistake and then you 1276 01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:36,439 Speaker 1: know you got to kick the field goal on. Fourth 1277 01:08:36,479 --> 01:08:42,160 Speaker 1: down so it's a real thing and it's something That 1278 01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:43,800 Speaker 1: the bills are going to have to. Contend with That's 1279 01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:47,160 Speaker 1: why keon's health is a big factor. In this he's 1280 01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:50,639 Speaker 1: big enough and physical enough to raged all those guys 1281 01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:53,840 Speaker 1: in a tussle. Like that we'll see if he gets 1282 01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:56,200 Speaker 1: the chance to, do that but that's one of the 1283 01:08:56,200 --> 01:08:58,920 Speaker 1: things you have to be prepared for when you Play. 1284 01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:02,000 Speaker 2: The ravens let's go back to the phones and we 1285 01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:04,920 Speaker 2: move On to Fred, in rochester who's been. Waiting patiently 1286 01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:05,360 Speaker 2: what do you got, For? 1287 01:09:05,400 --> 01:09:10,000 Speaker 11: Us, fred, yeah, hi guys thanks for taking.

Should be, you know a question about it. 1292 01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:24,680 Speaker 11: First game no, One knows no. One knows you have, 1293 01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:27,640 Speaker 11: some idea but you really. Don't know there's always a 1294 01:09:27,760 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 11: joker in the. Deck somewhere for where we are, RIGHT 1295 01:09:31,360 --> 01:09:36,040 Speaker 11: now i don't see a real, problem defensively like a 1296 01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 11: lot of other. People do we've got some things we 1297 01:09:38,240 --> 01:09:41,320 Speaker 11: got to.

The 1341 01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:53,320 Speaker 2: Field and i'm really excited To See joey posa in 1342 01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:55,799 Speaker 2: action For.

Do that maybe not on, 1346 01:12:04,680 --> 01:12:06,960 Speaker 2: every SNAP but i think enough where we notice them in. 1347 01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:12,240 Speaker 1: This, Game yeah lamar is a much different quarterback than 1348 01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:14,160 Speaker 1: The one, i'm mentioning but it's the same kind. Of 1349 01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:17,200 Speaker 1: Idea the bills have great success Against the dolphins because 1350 01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:20,160 Speaker 1: they take to his first. Read away the ball's got 1351 01:12:20,200 --> 01:12:23,559 Speaker 1: to come. Out fast if You make lamar, do that 1352 01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:25,360 Speaker 1: certainly you open it up where he's gonna pull it 1353 01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:28,760 Speaker 1: down and run. On you but, you know this is 1354 01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:33,400 Speaker 1: a team that throws the ball, extremely well and having 1355 01:12:33,560 --> 01:12:37,800 Speaker 1: them beat you outside of the framework of their offense 1356 01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:45,960 Speaker 1: seems sometimes can be a better plan than, you know 1357 01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:48,160 Speaker 1: having him back there carving, you up because this guy can. Do, 1358 01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:53,400 Speaker 1: It now lamar is a good quarterback IN. The nfl 1359 01:12:53,479 --> 01:12:57,559 Speaker 1: he's not forget this, dual athlete this dual. Threat guy 1360 01:12:57,600 --> 01:13:00,720 Speaker 1: the guy can, play quarterback and you got to treat him. 1361 01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:02,040 Speaker 1: Like that so if you can get him off his 1362 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:05,320 Speaker 1: reads and get him to move off, HIS spot i 1363 01:13:05,320 --> 01:13:08,479 Speaker 1: think it's better for you than than it used. To 1364 01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:10,360 Speaker 1: be it used to be he was more comfortable. DOING 1365 01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:13,280 Speaker 1: that i think now you got to take the rest 1366 01:13:13,280 --> 01:13:16,120 Speaker 1: of the offense away and force him to hant single handedly, 1367 01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:19,000 Speaker 1: beat you which he might because he's, Good good he's. 1368 01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:20,759 Speaker 1: That good but at least you're trying to be. Tackling 1369 01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:24,520 Speaker 1: him you're trying to tackle him instead of trying to 1370 01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:26,680 Speaker 1: defend both ends of a pass or the other end of. 1371 01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:27,759 Speaker 1: A handoff even. 1372 01:13:28,200 --> 01:13:30,040 Speaker 2: Got to take a, break here more of your phone 1373 01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:33,200 Speaker 2: calls when we, get back as we are coming to 1374 01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:36,519 Speaker 2: you Live from wegman's On McKinley Parkway, in hamburg where 1375 01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:39,160 Speaker 2: they've got the newest editions Of The.

Good organizations at this. Current 1684 01:28:57,160 --> 01:29:00,240 Speaker 1: point every organization goes up, and down but it is 1685 01:29:00,360 --> 01:29:03,360 Speaker 1: these are two really well run teams with a lot, 1686 01:29:03,400 --> 01:29:08,680 Speaker 1: of talent a lot of, great players. Great culture it 1687 01:29:08,760 --> 01:29:11,599 Speaker 1: should be it just should be a, fantastic game and 1688 01:29:11,640 --> 01:29:15,880 Speaker 1: you can bet that this might not be the only 1689 01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:18,720 Speaker 1: time they meet in. THIS season i have both these 1690 01:29:18,800 --> 01:29:21,360 Speaker 1: teams are, playoff, caliber well, you know but there's a 1691 01:29:21,360 --> 01:29:22,080 Speaker 1: lot of football to. 1692 01:29:22,080 --> 01:29:24,280 Speaker 2: Be, played yeah they'll probably be on a collision course 1693 01:29:24,720 --> 01:29:27,120 Speaker 2: in the postseason at some point, in time and one 1694 01:29:27,120 --> 01:29:31,400 Speaker 2: of those teams presumably will have To Vanquish kansas city, before.

TIGHT 1696 01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:39,240 Speaker 2: game i think we're hoping it is because that just 1697 01:29:39,280 --> 01:29:42,080 Speaker 2: makes everything even.
