A lot of developments going on 5 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 1: there which we will we will fill you in on shortly. Steve. 6 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: This is how I know that the Bills have completely 7 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: taken over Western New York. They are at the forefront 8 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 1: of everyone's cerebral artech. What happened? I take my lovely 9 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: wife to the Michael Boublet concert last night at key 10 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: Bank Center. She is a big fan. And after he 11 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: opens with his first two songs, the next thing he 12 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: sings out of his mouth he oh my God, and 13 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:24,479 Speaker 1: the crowd ate it up like a buffet dinner. Is awesome. 14 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: And I was. I looked. I was probably an embarrassment 15 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: to my children because I was scrambling from my phone 16 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: trying to get the video setting on so I could 17 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: record it and we could listen to it here on 18 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 1: the show. But I am not that quick on the draw, 19 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: and so I didn't quite get it. And then at 20 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: the end of the show, he threw on a Sabers 21 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: jersey and sang his last song of the night with 22 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: a Sabers jersey on, which was kind of cool, very nice. Yeah, 23 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: that's big stuff. Yeah, he's retro cooled, you know, that's 24 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: what he is. Yeah, he found a niche and he 25 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: has hit it out of the park, right and he 26 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: he has a thing for that. He connects with the 27 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: local crowd and that. Listen, here's here's the best moment 28 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 1: of the So he's got this little catwalk that goes 29 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: out into the floor seats. It's in between the seats 30 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: on the floor of the arena. And he's walking out 31 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: there and you know, he's talking to people. He's grabbing 32 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: people's hands as he's singing. You know, people are reaching 33 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: out for him, you know whatever.

Like I said, it's one of 52 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: my wife's favorite artists. But he knew he was in Buffalo. 53 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: He knew and uh, and he knows how to work 54 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 1: the crowd. It's not easy to do as a guy 55 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: who as one of these performers who goes, you know, 56 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 1: tours of the country.

Um. 58 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: But even he's from British Columbia Vancouver area, he connected 59 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: it even bad. Like end of the show, he pulls 60 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: out the Sabers Jersey's like in nineteen seventy, the NHL 61 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: awarded two expansion teams to two cities, the Vancouver Canucks 62 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: and the Buffalo Sabers. And the best line he had 63 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: of the night was he said, I know he got 64 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: some uh some some fans of mine here from southern 65 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: Ontario in the house tonight, and they all start cheering. 66 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: He goes, but the maple leafs can suck it.

Plenty of news though coming 72 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: your way concerning the Bill's roster. The biggest is that 73 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: Tredavious White is out on the practice field today. He 74 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: is wearing a red non contact jersey and he is 75 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 1: not playing Sunday against the Chiefs. So the earliest we 76 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 1: will see Tredevious White in his familiar number twenty seven 77 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: jersey will be Week eight against the Green Bay Packers, 78 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: and we don't even know if that is a thing yet, 79 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: but he has the twenty one day window to watch 80 00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 1: him practice and not occupy a roster spot begin today 81 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 1: the twenty one day clock, and it will continue through 82 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: the bye week, and then it will continue into week eight. 83 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 1: So by the time we get to the end of 84 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: week eight, right before the Sunday night game against the Packers, 85 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 1: the Bills are gonna have to make a call. Well, no, Wednesday, 86 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: one week when they'll they'll still have time. They'll still 87 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: have one more week after or half a week by 88 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 1: the time they get to the end of that period. 89 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 1: But it'll be interesting to see if they make a 90 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: call and put him on the fifty three man roster 91 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: by the time we inched towards Sunday night football against 92 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers. Not gonna play this week. Really 93 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: good to see him out there, though, isn't it? Holy cow? 94 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: I know right, I think I've been waiting for this guy. 95 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: Good for him, and I asked you can see two 96 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: he was over there. They were doing stretching stuff. They're 97 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: doing some special team stuff before practice. He's over there, 98 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: and one by one most of the guys over there 99 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: saw him. They came over and you kind of gave 100 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: it a little a little small little fist bump, you know, 101 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: to say, hey man, it's good to have you back 102 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 1: just kind of yeah, you know they Yeah, it's not 103 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 1: lost on players how long the road back it is. 104 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: And he's moving pretty good. I gotta say, listen, we've 105 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: been You and I have been in this building. We're 106 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: in here every day, five days a week something and 107 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: now with the season on, we're on here every day. Right, 108 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: So we've seen Trey. It was May, it was June, 109 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 1: it was July, in a full lather every day, just 110 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: working so hard to come back, and nobody's the building's 111 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: vacant in those months, and he's out there and they're 112 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: working and he's working through it, and you know, it 113 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,799 Speaker 1: looks like an even nanny looked like a million bucks. 114 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like, I don't know what the guy's 115 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: waiting on. He looks great, but you know, um, it's 116 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: tough to play dB in the NFL. This just in 117 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: so here's got to get razors sharp. And finally that 118 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: he's come to the point where he's there, which is great. 119 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: And today is what October twelfth, So that means he 120 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 1: did it last Thanksgiving. We're talking about eleven months months, 121 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: eleven months before he returned to practice, and even so 122 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: he might be on a pitch count here in practice, 123 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: So well, we'll see where it goes. I don't anticipate 124 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: we're going to get his level of practice participation because 125 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: he's technically not on the roster, they do not have 126 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: to list that. I did ask coach, I said, how 127 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: do we characterize his practice this week? Is he going 128 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: to be on a pitch count? Are you ramping him up? 129 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: How would you characterize it? He said he didn't really 130 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: want to get into details. He said, trades worked very hard, 131 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: but we have to crawl before we walk. So I 132 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: get the sense that this is going to be very 133 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: much a ramp up period. I mean, you've worked this 134 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: hard just to get him back on the field in 135 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: eleven months. Oh yeah, you're not going to just throw 136 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: him into the deep end of the pool's Yeah, that's 137 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: not the way it works. He hasn't played in football 138 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: since then, so he's got to get out and start 139 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: going through a training camp kind of cycle. Yeah. While 140 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: these guys are these guys are in the midst heated season. 141 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: They're in Yeah, they're in. All all systems go. He's 142 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: got to kind of ramp up and get into that 143 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: and kind of merge with the traffic of the season 144 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: to get his body and his mind and his reflexes 145 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: and all of that acclimated to the speed and the 146 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: intensity and playing the unpredictable nature of his position. You know, 147 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: a wide receiver, because you know where you're gonna run. 148 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to run this route that route. Now, 149 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: dB man, you're running everywhere and you're reacting, You're turning 150 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: back the other way, you're doing you're doing a shoulder 151 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: roll turn, you're doing a plant and pivot turn. You're 152 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: doing you know, there's no there's no limit to what 153 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: you have to be able to do as a corner. 154 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: A corner in the NFL, folks, it's a high impactability 155 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: and particularly on the lower half of your body. It's 156 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: got to be an elite athletic position. You've got to 157 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: be in shape to play it. You've got to be 158 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: physically ready to not just do the physical nature of 159 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: a running, jumping and turning and catching the ball, but 160 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: you gotta like you gotta come up in the run 161 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: game two and that means taken on three hundred pounders. 162 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,719 Speaker 1: That means running around those guys and running up into 163 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: the box and doing all that. So it is probably 164 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: the most physically demanding, one of the most physically demanding 165 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: spots athletically in any sport, high intensity rep after rep, 166 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: and you gotta be ready. So that's a ramp up 167 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: the game in reverse. It's a ramp up about that. Yeah, 168 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: it's a ramp up. He's gonna get he's gonna be 169 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: up there, get get acclimated, and he'll tell him how 170 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: he feels, and they'll see what they see on film, 171 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: and they'll see how he feels tomorrow after a first 172 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: day here, and they'll ramp it up. Yell, it's gonna 173 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: be great. It's great though. The progress is being shown 174 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: now for the first time for all of us to see. Yeah, 175 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: there's other good news on the roster. There are only 176 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,599 Speaker 1: a couple of players not participating in practice in any capacity, 177 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: that being Jay Kumereau with the high ankle sprain SELFERD 178 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: in week three and Taiwan Jones. We don't know the 179 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 1: nature of his injury yet, we will when the Wednesday 180 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: injury report comes out. Those two not practicing at all. 181 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: Everyone else that you have seen on the injury list 182 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks is practicing in some capacity today. 183 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: That includes Christian Benford, who is two weeks removed from 184 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: hand surgery. He is out there on the practice field 185 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: in a red non contact jersey and his hand is 186 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: still wrapped, but he is out there and practicing. And 187 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: when coach initially announced that Benford was going to have 188 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: hand surgery coming out of the Miami game, he said 189 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: he was going to miss a couple of games. Those 190 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: two games have passed. Yeah, so there's an outside shot 191 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: for him to be at least available Sunday, which would 192 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: add further depth to the cornerback corps. And who knows. 193 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 1: I mean, if he's really good, maybe he starts. I 194 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: don't know. There's left to see how the week progresses. Right, 195 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: There's some other guys in red contact. Jordan Cloyer had 196 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: a red non contact jersey, but he was back practicing 197 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: after missing all of last week with a rib injury 198 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: suffered in the Ravens game. So he's back in a 199 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: presumably limited capacity. Will wait again on the injury report 200 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: to find out veteran rest days for Roger Staffold and 201 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 1: Von Miller, as has normally been the case here on Wednesdays. 202 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: And then you've got other guys trying to come back 203 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 1: from injury like Dawson Knox. Jordan Phillips, who appeared to 204 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: reinjure his hamstring, was out there on the practice field. 205 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,719 Speaker 1: We'll see what his level of participation is and we'll 206 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: see where Dawson Knox is. They don't have Knox and 207 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: Phillips don't have any special jerseys or anything like that on. 208 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,959 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean they're going full They have soft tissue injuries. 209 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: But yeah, so so there's that, and I'm trying to 210 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 1: look down the list here real quick as far as 211 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: other guys that have been dealing with nagging injuries. Oh, 212 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: Isaiah McKenzie is out of the concussions protocol and I 213 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: would anticipate he is a full participation in practice today. 214 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: Last week he had a red non contact jersey on 215 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: for most of the week, and he is out of 216 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: the concussion protocol. So it looks like he is good 217 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: to go going forward. And let me just take a 218 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: quick rundown here or the rest of the roster. Oh, 219 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: Tremaine Edmunds back out on the practice field as well. 220 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: Did not practice at all last week and didn't play 221 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: in last week's game with a hamstring injury. But Tremaine 222 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 1: Edmonds is practicing too, so some encouraging signs. Finally on 223 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: the injury front here, as it looks like the Bills 224 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: could be getting some of their main horses back in 225 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: the lineup. We'll have to wait between now and Friday. 226 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: Is going to tell us a lot, so we'll see 227 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: where it sits at the end of the week. Bill's 228 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: practice updates are presented by Lee com Lake Erie, College 229 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: of Osteopathic Medicine. Who that was a lot of stuff. Yeah, 230 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 1: there's a lot going on, and it's mostly it's pretty 231 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 1: good stuff. Jordan Phillips, Dawson Knox, isa McKenzie, Tremaine Edmunds. 232 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: We'll get information on them as the week progressive. But 233 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: none of them are in red non contact and they're 234 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: all out there jumping around, you know. Isaiah McKenzie's his usual, 235 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: very happy self to be back out there, and Knox 236 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: is standing around nobody, you know, no designation on him. 237 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: Jordan Phillips still got a rap on his leg, but 238 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: you know, the big guy's gonna he wants to play. 239 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: I was you and I were both surprised he actually 240 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: got good enough to play last week. Of course it 241 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: didn't last and of course Tremaine Edmunds back in the 242 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: full who was never had a chance to play last 243 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: weeks out there practicing. Yeah, so maybe it was only 244 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: a mild strain for Tremaine last week. They sit him 245 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: down for a week and then maybe he's good to 246 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: go this week. So hopefully that is the case. Other news, 247 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: Bill's quarterback Josh Allen unsurprisingly named AFC Offensive Player of 248 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: the Week after his four hundred and twenty four yard, 249 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 1: four touchdown passing performance in a blowout of the Steelers. 250 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: He now has eight AFC Offensive Player of the Week awards. 251 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 1: The team record is ten by Jim Kelly. I think 252 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 1: he might catch him just a hunch, got a chance, Yeah, 253 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: since he's only in his fifth season and his only 254 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: played in sixty five career starts, so that's a pretty 255 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: good ratio there. So there's that, And of course this 256 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: week we've got Bill's Chiefs and it's about as big 257 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: as it gets. Two four and one teams, not the only, 258 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: not the only game, Steve, between two very successful franchises. 259 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: The Eagles are playing the four and one Cowboys, So 260 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: the five and O Eagles against the four and one Cowboys. 261 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: So those are the two marquee Matchups of the weekend 262 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: and game sponsor this week is Gabe's Collision. Get back 263 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: in the game with Gabe's Collision, locally owned and operated 264 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: since nineteen sixty four, featuring three convenient locations.

Some pretty good 266 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: games on the Patriots play the Browns in Cleveland. I'm 267 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: very interested, like a lot of Bills fans are, and 268 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: seeing the Patriots take those guys on Bill's Chiefs. Of 269 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: course you set it. The Eagles and and the Cowboys 270 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: Bronchos Chargers is kind of a snooze fest for me. 271 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: The Monday night game is. But yeah, there's some great ones, 272 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: and of course we were laughing. We just got through 273 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: suffering through the Colts Broncos debacle on Thursday night. Now 274 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: we've got the big juggernaut of the Washington Commanders and 275 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: the Chicago bear Take, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Thursday 276 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: Night jav football. Dick. I don't know if you saw this, Steve. 277 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: This happened kind of on the heels of the Patriots 278 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: last game, Bill Belichick. After another steady performance by rookie 279 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: quarterback Bailey's zappy a fifth round pick of the Patriots, 280 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: if memory serves, is asked by the media, when mac 281 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: Jones is healthy, do you envision any scenario anywhere in 282 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: the realm of possibility of Bailey Zappy remaining your starting quarterback? Now, 283 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: coaches as a rule do not like to deal with hypotheticals, 284 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: and oftentimes they'll just dodge him or they'll unequivocally refute 285 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: whatever is being suggested. Belichick didn't either. He basically went 286 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: with us, we'll see where things go answer, which has 287 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: now opened up the door to the potential of mac 288 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: Jones losing his starting job to Bailey's Appy. And the 289 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: reason why this narrative is out there is because it's 290 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: happened before. It happened twenty years ago, when a sixth 291 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: round pick by the name of Tom Brady bench the 292 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 1: first pick in the draft in nineteen ninety two and 293 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: Drew Bledsoe, Well, he didn't bench him. He got hurt. 294 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: You think about this, and then never got his job. 295 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: Think about this. The day before Bledsoe got whacked by 296 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: mo Lewis. Mo Lewis, he signed a hundred million dollar 297 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: extension on his contract the day before he got I 298 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: forgot about that. The day before and yeah, boom, diggity 299 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: there you go. Yeah, he uh, that's amazing. Yeah, So 300 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: Bailey's appy is not Tom Brady. No, but well we 301 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: don't know what Bailey's but I'll say this, he's got 302 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: he's got a better arm than Mac Jones. Yeah. I'm 303 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 1: sitting here going, you know, what, do I care on 304 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: either one of those guys. Certainly not afraid of Mac Jones. 305 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: I'm afraid of him getting more and more experienced and 306 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: then getting more deficient underneath him. But all that, but 307 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: Bailey's appy came walks into the onto the scene last 308 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 1: week and they shut out the highest scoring offense in 309 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: the league and the Detroit Lions to score twenty nine 310 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 1: points on him. Yeah, it's not a bad day for 311 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback in his first start. Elsewhere in the division, 312 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: Dolphins quarterback to Ataga Voloa is going to return to practice. 313 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 1: It sounds as though it's going to be in a 314 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: limited capacity. He is still in the concussion protocol, but 315 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: he's going to begin throwing today at Dolphins practice. He 316 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 1: is not going to play this weekend against the four 317 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: and one Vikings. The starter for the Dolphins, a quarterback 318 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: is going to be third string rookie Skyler Thompson, not 319 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: back up Teddy Bridgewater. Now, Bridgewater was placed in the 320 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 1: concussion protocol after last week's game, and that looked to be, 321 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 1: let's just say, didn't appear like he displayed anything near 322 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: the symptoms of other people that have been put in 323 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: the protocol. First play of the game, he gets taken 324 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: out of the game for a no go observation and 325 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 1: gets yanked out of the game. He has not displayed 326 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: concussion symptoms in any way, shape or form since he 327 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 1: was removed from that game. I have no idea whether 328 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: he is still in or out of the protocol. But 329 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: he has to get through all five steps. That takes time. 330 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: But Mike McDaniel's already decided. We're going with the kid. 331 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 1: Not a good time to be Teddy Bridgewater. Miami's dumpster 332 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: fire right now. That turned quickly. It turns so fast, 333 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,880 Speaker 1: and it only I mean for me, and I facetiously said, 334 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,639 Speaker 1: you know, hey, congratulations Miami, you found your quarterback in 335 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: two That's great because up and here in Buffalo, we 336 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: hope he's that's what we prefer. We hope he's there 337 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: for twelve years fifteen years. Yeah, keep too as long 338 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 1: as you want, and Dolphin fans can pump his tires 339 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: as much as they want. That guy doesn't scare you 340 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: when you got Josh Allen on your team. So now 341 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,400 Speaker 1: it's when they throw two out there, back out there, 342 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: and they let him just lie his way out of 343 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: the concussion protocol, get back on the field. And now 344 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:37,360 Speaker 1: their their season is dropping like an anvil in the ocean. Yeah, 345 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 1: it is out of sight and it's doing nothing but gurgling. 346 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: They are on life slid. They look like their season 347 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: is on life support. It is absolutely fragile. It is 348 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: a snowflake getting thrown into the fire man. It is 349 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: gonna melt away. It looks bad for them, Skyler Thompson. 350 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: And here's the thing too, This quick decision by Mike McDaniel, 351 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: so you know what, Hey, hey, we're just we're just 352 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: gonna play there. That is total reactionary for the heat 353 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: he took for throwing two a back out there. Scotlor 354 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: Thompson gonna win that game, that is, I mean, they're 355 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:23,719 Speaker 1: making decisions reactionary. It seems I mean, we're five thousand 356 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: miles away, it seems like they're making reactionary decisions. Now 357 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 1: I have nothing to do with the best chance to 358 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 1: win a football game. I will say that Thompson has 359 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: a live arm. Did make a couple of plays last week, 360 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: nothing special, but he got thrown into a football game 361 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: he wasn't expecting to play. Let's see where it goes. 362 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: I don't have a lot of high hopes for the 363 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: Dolphins against a four and one Vikings team that I 364 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: think is quietly moved to the top of the NFC Conference. Dolphins. 365 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: Dolphins are playing good football. I'man Dolphins. The Vikings are 366 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 1: playing good football. They're playing they got a sneaky good 367 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: pass rush. Yeah, they're gonna they're making a play to 368 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: get into you know, to win that division, right I 369 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: mean times already they're in first right now. Of course 370 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: Green Bays behind him, and I'll tell you what, green 371 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: Bay's got that first place schedule. They're coming here to 372 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: Buffalo on a Sunday night in a couple of weeks, 373 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: and I think, I'm that's not gonna look. That does 374 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 1: not look good for them. With the way the Bills 375 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: are playing right now and Minnesota going to Miami, I mean, 376 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: that's they're gonna put some distance there, they got a 377 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: chance to With Skyler Thompson coming into so Minnesota, you 378 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: gotta maybe they're maybe they're that team. You know, we'll 379 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: see them here in the not too distant future in November. 380 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: I believe it is um okay. So there's that. To 381 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 1: no one's surprise, Kansas City Police say Raiders wide receiver 382 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: DeVante Adams has been charged with misdemeanor assault after shoving 383 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,439 Speaker 1: that worker on Monday night on his way out of 384 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: the stadium after their one point loss to the Chiefs. 385 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: So I think we were all anticipating that was going 386 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: to happen. When the guy that got knocked over took 387 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 1: himself to the host had himself sent to the hospital. 388 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: City arranged for private transport to the hospital. It means 389 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:14,719 Speaker 1: you got his buddy to drive him, right, Um, so 390 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 1: he'll probably have to pay the guy a fine and stuff. 391 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 1: I mean, you can't be doing that stuff. I mean, look, ultimately, 392 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: who's at fault here probably security, who should be cordining 393 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 1: off that area so the players can exit the field 394 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 1: without anybody getting their way. I've spent I spent a 395 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: lot of time on sidelines that and certainly Davante Adams 396 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: didn't need to do that. That guy's that guy's got 397 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: a note. They don't and it's like it's nobody instructs 398 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: photographers or production people or grips or any of that stuff. 399 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: They never tell them, hey, you got to stay away 400 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: from the players. Do They never tell you that. They 401 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: expect you to be a professional nowhere, to know how 402 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: to act. And the guys down there in front of 403 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 1: the tunnel, he gets caught in a bad spot. It's 404 00:22:55,320 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: it's a this is a nothing. It's a nothing. Certainly 405 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 1: the media is like, oh, Davanta Adams is up now 406 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, a bet. Come on, Um, he's 407 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: frustrated after a loss, and the guy's not watching what's 408 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 1: going on and cuts him off and he gets pushed. 409 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: It's I'm not saying Davanta Adams is okay. He should 410 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 1: have done it. He shouldn't have. But it's not that 411 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: big a deal. I mean that, you know, come on, yeah, 412 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: I mean I get it. It's going to be a 413 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: little bit. Looks bad. It looks bad, and the guy's 414 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 1: gonna make a couple of bucks off it. But I'll 415 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 1: say this, I don't know how much he's gonna make 416 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 1: of it. But if I'm in the Kansas City Chiefs, 417 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 1: the guy's never on the sidelines again ever for any reason. 418 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're gonna do that, it doesn't matter, 419 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. He won't get credentialed. Um. I'm I'm 420 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 1: sure whatever money Dvante Adams is he can pry out 421 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 1: of him, maybe it'll be worth it. So that is 422 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: around the NFL presented by Kalid to Health, the official 423 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills.

Sure, I've got a couple of things really. 444 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: Number one it's a Davis way. I think Brownie already 445 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: already sent you a text message fires on Twitter. If 446 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,479 Speaker 1: I was being based off what we have at our 447 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 1: corner position and based off the tutelage of our defensive 448 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: basket coach, along with Trade White working with the young kids, 449 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: we are already kind of set that their continuity is 450 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: already there. Don't get me wrong, it'd be a great 451 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: asset to have have Trade back, But if it was me, 452 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 1: I'll just getting ready for next season. That's one. Two. Offensively, um, 453 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 1: this firrs the game plan for Kansas City. I want 454 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 1: the Bills to attack. Don't worry about Patrick Mahomes, don't 455 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: worry about who's on the other side of that field. 456 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 1: We are we are when one unit taking one game 457 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 1: at a time. But I tell you a sleeper that 458 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: showed me against Pittsburgh and Brownie Steve. You guys know 459 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 1: I've been advocate for this young man for a while, 460 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: Isaiah Hodgins. I just really believe him and Shakure can 461 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: really come in and be a sleeper in his game. 462 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: Fires on the defensive back tip for Kansas City that 463 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: they're going to be keying in on Davis and keying 464 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: in on Diggs. I think these guys can slip off 465 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: and do some damage. And last but not least, I 466 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: am going to just comment Steve on a comment you 467 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 1: made about the gentleman's credentials at Kansas City. That gentleman 468 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: didn't do anything wrong. It wasn't like he was trying 469 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: to take the guy's picture. Uh. Devant Adams was dead wrong. 470 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: He has to be accountable for that. Wait wait, wait, 471 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,679 Speaker 1: wait what do you think? Wait? Okay, Chris accountable? How 472 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: what happens? What do you think happens?

This gentleman was walking back Davante was 475 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: upset about the loss and just shoved the guy for 476 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: no reason at all. No, Chris, Chris, I didn't ask 477 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: what happened. I'm sorry, butch, Butch, I didn't ask what happened. 478 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 1: I didn't ask what the guy did. I didn't ask 479 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: who was right or who was wrong? In your perfect world, 480 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:03,439 Speaker 1: serve justice what happens. So what happens is for me. Now, 481 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 1: just answer your questions, Steve, I'm gonna I'm gonna. I'm 482 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 1: gonna find DeVante Adams, okay, and I'm gonna leave it 483 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 1: just just as that. Okay, what about what about the guy? 484 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: What about the guy who sues one of your employees 485 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: over something that happened? Right then? I think Jenoman has 486 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: a right to sue. Yeah, he does, of course he does. 487 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 1: Is it the right thing to do? I think it is, 488 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,719 Speaker 1: because why can I just finish? Do you do you 489 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:34,880 Speaker 1: think that guy's hurt? No? It still as a hurt. 490 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 1: He was disrespectable on TV. His family, his kids were watching, 491 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: his family members, amount of town was watching. For his 492 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 1: cult workers was watching. He was disrespected on national television. 493 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 1: But nobody cares.

Disrespected, nobody cares, nobody's required to just 495 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:57,120 Speaker 1: can't have for nobody is required to respect that guy. Can't. 496 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: Nobody's required to respect that guy. In fact, nobody's required 497 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: to even know who the guy is. He's the one 498 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: that abserted himself. He could just be some guy. Nobody 499 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: has to know who that guy is. He put himself 500 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: into the middle of it when he decided to sue 501 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 1: and have himself to and file a police report. Now 502 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 1: I want to know his name. I want to know 503 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: his name. And now, if he's gonna be anonymous, I 504 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 1: don't think so. I don't think so anyense, I don't 505 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: see I can. I cannot piggyback with you just a 506 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: little bit. I concur with you about that anonymous. Say, 507 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: if you're gonna sue, your name's gotta be upfront. Let 508 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 1: everybody know who you are. But let me just say 509 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: this now, Steve, I know you're a former All Pro player. 510 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: You even play this game many times. You've been in 511 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: many stadiums. You have seen this many times in your 512 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: career more than I do, you know what I mean, 513 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: more than and I know you probably I know you 514 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: probably had sometimes he ain't shoved the guy, but you 515 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: probably verbally says scus to get out of my way. 516 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 1: I understand that, and I can't really argue with you 517 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: or debate with you because you've actually done it. I 518 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: was just commenting on your question of what I what 519 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: I would I do. Now. I'm not saying you're wrong. 520 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: You're right because you know way more than me because 521 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: you actually put on that uniform and been in those 522 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: type of situations and seeing that. So I'm with you, buddy. 523 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: Here's the thing. I'll say this, Butch, I'll say you're right. 524 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: Davante Adams. It was the guy in apology. In fact, 525 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: I'm I he should have understood when he pushed the 526 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: guy down right there. He should have snapped out of it, 527 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: reached down and helped the man up and said, listen, bro, 528 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: I'm sorry I was out of line and helped him up. 529 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: And then but he didn't. I mean, he had walked 530 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: off and left the guy laying there. He did apologize 531 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 1: in the locker room and postgame interviews to the guy 532 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: he knocked over. He might have yeah, and that's fine. 533 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: And in general, Davante Adams is known as a model 534 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: teammate at least he wasn't but that and it was 535 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: a bad deal, and it was it was, it was bad. 536 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 1: But it's bad. The bottom line is it's bad optics 537 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 1: for the league. You can't have all pro receivers on 538 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: national television knocking pete people over that are working the game. 539 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: You just get it's bad optics. It is. Here's the thing, 540 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 1: and I get it, you're all that's correct. But here's 541 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 1: the thing. Big deal you got guys on that's more 542 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: egregious to me, A bad a bad roughing the passer 543 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: call than this, Well, that has more impact on the 544 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: outcome of a game. This is this is you know, 545 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: this is workers, This is this is production people having 546 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: a scrape. I get it this, but come on, this 547 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: is this isn't even this isn't a shaving nick on 548 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: the chin of the NFL. No. Look, I'll be the 549 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: I'll be the first to tell you we have an 550 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: overly litigious society to begin with. Absolutely, I mean, there's 551 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: no question about it. That's my issue, There's no question 552 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 1: about it. But this doesn't The league is always concerned 553 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: and we have seen this in a lot of different 554 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: areas about optics. What do they look like? Do they 555 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 1: look like the model professional league. And when they don't, 556 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: and when people that are part of the shield step 557 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 1: out of line, they get brought back into line very quickly. Okay, 558 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: but let me just point out this. If you're on 559 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: the sidelines of that stadium and you're doing anything professional, 560 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 1: you're part of the shield. Yeah. And this guy, that 561 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: guy's moving a piece of cameras, what he looks like. 562 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: That that guy's part of the shield too. So what 563 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: happens to him? Well, that's why I said at the 564 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: very if he's gonna if you're gonna sue your the 565 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: Golden Goose, you don't get to sit with the Golden 566 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: Goose anymore. That's my point. And that's choice. That's his choice, right. 567 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: And the radio station outlet, whatever where your station, website, network, 568 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 1: podcast partner, CBS, NBC, whoever that guy has worked for, 569 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 1: he's probably part time, no problem, that's fine. There's let 570 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: me just say this, there's a go jillion other people 571 00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: who would love to be on the sidelines of an 572 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: NFL game doing what he's doing, holding a stand. Yeah, 573 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 1: So thanks for stopping by. You can get your money 574 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: from Davante if you want, but that's not gonna happen anymore. 575 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say this. I'm pretty confident that this 576 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: week at the Bills Chiefs game, there is either gonna 577 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: be tension tape on either side of that tunnel at 578 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: the end of the game so that nobody crosses the 579 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: path of the tunnel so the players can exit without 580 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: any obstructions whatsoever. Especially after this that rockhead who got 581 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: pushed by Davante Adams is gonna make it crappy for 582 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: people like you and me who are down there trying 583 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: to work. You got like, now you can't. You gotta 584 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: start from that corner of the end zone, go all 585 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: the way around all three hundred and to get on 586 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 1: the other side of that rope. You gotta walk a 587 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: circle all the way around the stadium to get back there. 588 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: Because of this this guy and his and his police report. 589 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 1: Are you kidding? That guy crushed it for all. That's 590 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: why I'm mad right there. I can tell that guy. Now, 591 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: all of every person on that sideline is gonna have 592 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: a new hurdle to jump over because that guy stepped 593 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: in front of Davante Adams after they got a crushing 594 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: defeat to the Chiefs, and he sued him. It is 595 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: what it is. That guy right there is the reason 596 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: for an enormous pain in the neck for every sideline 597 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: worker from now on. That that disgusts me. Well, I'm sorry. 598 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: We can't change it. Steve Dante was wrong. He shouldn't 599 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: have done he should have apologized right there. He said, Hey, bro, 600 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 1: I should I'm sorry, man, I'm you know, but he didn't. 601 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: So yeah, we will leave that there. We'll take more 602 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 1: of your phone calls when we return here on a 603 00:33:43,240 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: Wednesday edition of One Bill's Live. Stay tuned. All right, 604 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: welcome back to One Bills Live. Chris Brown, Steve Jasker 605 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: with you, and we are going to get back to 606 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: the phones here as the first hour is yours here 607 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: on today's show. I don't even want to look at 608 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:18,879 Speaker 1: my timeline now all fired up. I don't think they're 609 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: crushing you. They're just staying Steve's Steve's fired up. Oh 610 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 1: my gosh, nobody was judging you. I get it. The 611 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,280 Speaker 1: guy was done wrong. The guy that was just working, 612 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: he used to some some schmuck dragging a mic stand 613 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: or whatever it was, and he got you know, I 614 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 1: got pushed down. You know, I'm come on it happened. 615 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 1: It's so bad, so wrong to sue over something like that. 616 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: Let's go back to the phones, though, and move forward 617 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 1: with Paul in Tonawanda. What do you got for us, Paul, 618 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,720 Speaker 1: you're on one bills live. Yeah, I think a question 619 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 1: about the Chief's Raiders team the other night. Maybe you've 620 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 1: covered this yesterday and I wasn't able to listen yesterday. 621 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 1: The logic in going for two points to get a 622 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 1: one point lead. Great if you do it and be 623 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:14,360 Speaker 1: able to hold the Chiefs and win the game. But 624 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 1: here's to me, if they tied the game up, at 625 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: least they got a tie. And if they're worried about 626 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 1: the Chief's offense, like eight them said, the Chiefs go 627 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: down the field, score a field goal or touchdown, they're 628 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: probably gonna win the game. I don't I don't understand 629 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 1: that the logic. Maybe you can explain it to me 630 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 1: and why they would go for two and it seems 631 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: like there's a couple of bad outcomes there. I'm with you, Paul, 632 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: made no sense. I'm with you. I get it that 633 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: you put a little pressure on the offense. So here's 634 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: the thing. Maybe if they don't, if they get the 635 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: two points. Then if you take that extra point the 636 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: single point as a given, you tie it up. The 637 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: Chiefs are under no stress if they want to you 638 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 1: know this next the next series. If you win it, 639 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 1: then they have to push. It gives you a better 640 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: chance for a turnover of some kind, right or you know, 641 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 1: a stop on downs or whatever. They feel like they 642 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 1: gotta go for it then, but I'm with you. You 643 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 1: take tie it up and then see what you can do, 644 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 1: because it nothing. It changes nothing for you except for 645 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:34,399 Speaker 1: the fact you can't win the game. And exactly that's 646 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,240 Speaker 1: exactly the most important thing that it changes. You can't 647 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 1: win if you don't get it. Yeah, you can't win 648 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: if you don't get the if you don't get the 649 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,799 Speaker 1: two point, because the Chiefs are gonna go down and 650 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 1: they've gonna they're gonna score a touchdown or a field 651 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: goal anyway, which they would have had to do to 652 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: beat you before. Now they don't have to do. I'm 653 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 1: just gonna say it. It was a stupid decision. I think. 654 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 1: First of all, this four and a half minutes left 655 00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: in the game. That's number one. There's a lot of time. 656 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,959 Speaker 1: Number two, so the Chiefs have plenty of time number two. 657 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 1: Whether you get one point or two points, it doesn't 658 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: change what the Chiefs have to do. If you kick 659 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: the extra point, it's tied. They have to score to win. 660 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,840 Speaker 1: If you get two points, they still need a field 661 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 1: goal to beat you. They still have to score. Whether 662 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,879 Speaker 1: you score one or two. It's Look, here's the only 663 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,399 Speaker 1: way you can make a remote argument for it. If 664 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 1: two points puts you up by four, okay, maybe I 665 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:33,319 Speaker 1: can get behind the decision. Then, but putting you up 666 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 1: by two as opposed to time, or putting you up 667 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,759 Speaker 1: by one, as opposed to tying the game with four 668 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 1: and a half minutes left, against that Chiefs offense is 669 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 1: idiotic and it doesn't do anything. Here's the thing, what 670 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: it might what You can make the argument that if 671 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,400 Speaker 1: they're up by one, they won't go for it on 672 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 1: fourth if you get them to a third and medium 673 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,359 Speaker 1: or fourth and medium or fourth and two, so then 674 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: they got to give it back to you, and with 675 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 1: four minutes left you say, okay, we're gonna have enough time. 676 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,240 Speaker 1: It puts the onus on your defense to get a stop. 677 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: Whereas if it's tied or they're trailing, the Chiefs would 678 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 1: be more likely to say, all right, we gotta go 679 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 1: this four down territory. We're gonna go for it, so 680 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:17,320 Speaker 1: you're not so you won't get the ball back because 681 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 1: they're gonna start going forward on fourth down. That's the 682 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: rationale I think that the Raiders were using. And you know, 683 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 1: simply by not getting it, game's over. I mean you 684 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 1: got to hold and even if you hold them to 685 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: a field goal, you're down four. You got to score 686 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:40,839 Speaker 1: a TD to win. So I'm Steve here is the prob. 687 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: Unless you're gonna get a stop at four minutes left. 688 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 1: You got to think they're probably thinking, hey, whatever happens, 689 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 1: we're gonna get the ball back at some point. But 690 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 1: they couldn't get a stop. We have coaches that dive 691 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 1: headlong into analytics and just follow the numbers. We have 692 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 1: other coaches that like going with their gut right. For 693 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: some reason, it's hard for a lot of these coaches 694 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,839 Speaker 1: in the league to do both. There is a thing 695 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 1: that I had a coach, one of the best coaches 696 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:12,879 Speaker 1: I've ever had, and it's something that every player has 697 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: to apply to the game and coaches two. It's called 698 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 1: recognition of time and score and the momentum of the 699 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: game as well. The Chiefs had scored on their last 700 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:30,840 Speaker 1: five possessions prior to that fourth down. Okay, the last 701 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 1: five possessions, you're not getting a stop. You're not getting 702 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: a stop. Tie the game. See if your defense can 703 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 1: bow up and get a stop, and then hopefully you 704 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,720 Speaker 1: get the ball back and you go win the game. 705 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 1: You put yourself in a position by going for two. 706 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 1: If we don't get it and now we're down, all 707 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: they gotta do is kill the clock. They don't even 708 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:56,319 Speaker 1: have to score. Scenario is so dumb. Doesn't change for me. 709 00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: The scenario of going forward and getting two, getting the 710 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: two or missing the two doesn't change things for the 711 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 1: Chiefs enough to make a difference. Certainly, you can say, 712 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 1: well they were maybe trailing, Well yeah, but you still 713 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 1: gotta stop them. There's four minutes left, and whether you 714 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: tied the game or you go up by one, which 715 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 1: is best case scenario, the Chiefs need a field goal. Okay, 716 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 1: so tie the football game, force them to have to score. 717 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 1: To beat you. By missing the two, all they had 718 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,839 Speaker 1: to do is hold on to the football and they 719 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 1: win the game. That's why it's dumb. I agree. I 720 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 1: didn't I didn't like that at all. Either I thought 721 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:47,360 Speaker 1: it was a I was shocked, but maybe maybe Josh McDaniel. 722 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:51,279 Speaker 1: McDaniels thought, just what we thought, They ain't gonna get 723 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 1: a stop, so we gotta go for the win. Here. 724 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 1: You know, you're thinking you're not gonna get the ball 725 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: back in four and a half minutes. I mean, right, 726 00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 1: there's like four minutes to go in a game. Maybe 727 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: if it's two minute, I mean we've seen because then 728 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 1: the tip. But hold on, Steve. If it was a 729 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 1: minute left, then you think, okay, they'll run out of 730 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 1: time before they score on us. They had seven The 731 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: Chiefs had seventeen seconds at the end of the first 732 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 1: half and kick the fifty nine yard field goal. I know, 733 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 1: you're almost better off in that game. You're better off 734 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 1: tying them and then letting them trying to hold him 735 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:23,359 Speaker 1: to a field goal and then trying to go back 736 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 1: and score and again because your defense is you know 737 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 1: what I mean, letting them, like getting them inside your 738 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 1: toy and then just getting the ball back that way, 739 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,560 Speaker 1: letting him score basically to get the ball back because 740 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: your defense is not getting a stop. Failure to recognize 741 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,719 Speaker 1: time and score, failure to recognize the flow of the game. 742 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,879 Speaker 1: The Chiefs have scored the last five times they touched 743 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: the football in that game up to that possession. But 744 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: there's four and a half minutes left. You have a 745 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:52,319 Speaker 1: chance to tie the football game, knowing the Chiefs are 746 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 1: gonna get the ball with plenty of time, at least 747 00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 1: force them to have to score to beat you. You 748 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 1: don't get the two, you're still down and they just 749 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 1: have to hold on to the ball. It's just to me, 750 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 1: it's an easy decision. Tie the damn game, force them 751 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 1: to score, and then hope there's enough time left for 752 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: you to go down and score and beat him. That's 753 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 1: what you should have done. But whatever, I know, it's 754 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 1: armchair quarterback stuff. And I'm yeah, so you know, it 755 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 1: was screaming at the television on Monday night, Water was 756 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: with you. I was like, wow, that's that's kind of 757 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 1: weird four and a half because then I were thinking 758 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 1: I was saying, well, maybe no, wait, what's the how 759 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 1: much time? Oh yeah, it's I do not get it. 760 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,720 Speaker 1: I mean it almost Trump's hacket in week one, pulling 761 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,919 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson off the field for a sixty four yard 762 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,320 Speaker 1: vehicle because the way Russell Wilson's played. Maybe that decision 763 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 1: wasn't so maybe he knew something. But yeah, that's right. 764 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 1: I'm with you. He's you're right, um Paul. The Chiefs 765 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 1: Raiders game that lasts who going for going for two? 766 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 1: And I get it too. I don't know analytics best 767 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 1: to me, I sure didn't make much sense. You you 768 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:00,919 Speaker 1: got you've got a high it up and at least 769 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:04,360 Speaker 1: put a little pressure on those guys because and I 770 00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:06,800 Speaker 1: get it too, maybe taking the pressure off of them 771 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,760 Speaker 1: makes it so that they don't try, you know whatever, 772 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,439 Speaker 1: you think they're gonna first psychology reason, Now you're gonna 773 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 1: try and reverse psychology your way into them by a point. 774 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 1: I think that's that's crazy. I cannot have That was 775 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 1: Craig Cray. I thought, all right, enough, it's easy for 776 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 1: us to sit here on Wednesday after it didn't work. Yeah, 777 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: well yeah, but in the moment I'm watching the TV 778 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 1: say whatever. We can say whatever we want now, and 779 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 1: believe me, we do. I'm with you. That struck me 780 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 1: as odd when they did it. Yeah, break time for 781 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 1: us more of your phone calls when we return here 782 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 1: on one Bills Live.

Next, wait, goat first Kent. Yeah, good afternoon, guys, 794 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:43,520 Speaker 1: hardcore Bills fans since the late seventies and Steve watched 795 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 1: you play many games in person through the late eighties 796 00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 1: and nineties. Is a pleasure to be able to talk 797 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:55,720 Speaker 1: to you. Thank you. I have two questions, gentlemen. First 798 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 1: one is I wonder if you can, guys can give 799 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,200 Speaker 1: me a little insight as to when I see the 800 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:05,320 Speaker 1: offensive lineman getting set for a play. I see a 801 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:11,320 Speaker 1: number of them pointing towards the defense. Oftentimes it's a center, 802 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 1: but sometimes it's some of the other lineman, And I 803 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:15,839 Speaker 1: just wonder if you can give me some insight as 804 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:20,840 Speaker 1: to what they're pointing at, if you can tell me 805 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:24,839 Speaker 1: anything regarding that they're pointing at players. They're pointed at 806 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:28,480 Speaker 1: the defenders where they're lined up, and they're making calls, 807 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 1: which are the defenders may or may not recognize or 808 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 1: understand about what they're going to do the assignments, Like 809 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 1: the center will point to his right and point to 810 00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 1: a guy and he'll make a call, and based on 811 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:45,839 Speaker 1: the guy he points at, the guard tackling center will 812 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 1: understand who is responsible for which defender. You'll see the 813 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,719 Speaker 1: quarterback and you'll hear it on the live audio as well, 814 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:56,240 Speaker 1: sometimes where he'll point at a linebacker and say fifty 815 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 1: four is the mic backer, or fifty nine or forty 816 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 1: two is the mic backer, the twenty two is the 817 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 1: mic backer. That sets the protection scheme with the rules 818 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,280 Speaker 1: that they have in place as to how the protection 819 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 1: is going to be performed by the five guys up front. 820 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 1: They need every offensive lineman to know which guy the center, 821 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 1: guard or whoever's going to point to and make the call, 822 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: and those calls are what tells him who to block 823 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 1: and how to block it. They determine who the MIC 824 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 1: linebacker is based on how the defense is aligned, and 825 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:30,759 Speaker 1: if they reset before the snap, they'll re establish who 826 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 1: the MIC linebacker is if they need to, and everybody 827 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 1: else is blocking. Assignment filters down from there just by 828 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,319 Speaker 1: the identification of who the middle linebacker is in the 829 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 1: defensive alignment. And then the only other pointing that happens 830 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 1: is not actually pointing. And you'll see this on the 831 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:48,920 Speaker 1: road when the Bills have to use silent count as 832 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:51,800 Speaker 1: they will on Sunday, You'll see the guard flash his 833 00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,760 Speaker 1: hand out there right before the snap. He's not pointing 834 00:46:54,760 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 1: at anybody. He's signaling to the center to snap the football. 835 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: That's how they execute silent counts nowadays. A lot of 836 00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 1: guards in the NFL are the signaler to the center, 837 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:11,080 Speaker 1: flash a hand in front of his eye sight, you know, 838 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:14,319 Speaker 1: his peripheral vision, and then he knows way to beat 839 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 1: snap the ball. Um. That's how a lot of offensive 840 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:21,360 Speaker 1: lines are executing that nowadays. So there's your answer. Hopefully 841 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 1: that helps we go to John and Buffalo next. John, 842 00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:27,440 Speaker 1: let me have for us. You're on one bills live. Hey, guys, 843 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:31,759 Speaker 1: I kind of a question about inactives. There's fifty three 844 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,480 Speaker 1: men on a roster and every team every week, and 845 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 1: when does the inactive lists come over? When did that start? 846 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 1: If you have fifty three healthy men on your roster, 847 00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:44,000 Speaker 1: why can't they all dress? It doesn't? Well, because because 848 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:48,920 Speaker 1: of injuries. Here's the thing. You're right, they okay, I'm sorry, going, yeah, 849 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 1: they What happens is they and some teams like it 850 00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:54,759 Speaker 1: and some teams don't. And football coaches would love to 851 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 1: have seventy five guys on the sidelines to exactly, but 852 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:03,200 Speaker 1: but they don't because and here's why. If you have, say, 853 00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:05,319 Speaker 1: for instance, they can dress all fifty three guys, well, 854 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:09,359 Speaker 1: what happens when six guys are injured and they only 855 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:12,480 Speaker 1: have forty seven guys and the other team's got a 856 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:15,839 Speaker 1: full fifty three? They make it small and big enough 857 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:19,839 Speaker 1: to have themselves covered for injuries, but small enough so 858 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,360 Speaker 1: that even with the practice squad and all that, they'll 859 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:26,880 Speaker 1: have fifty three or forty seven, forty eight with an 860 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 1: eight offensive lineman, they'll have forty eight healthy guys to 861 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 1: suit up. I remember as a time back in the eighties, 862 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 1: perhaps in the early nineties. It was the eighties where 863 00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:39,240 Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty nine ers went into a game 864 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 1: with so they were so injured they only had thirty 865 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:46,359 Speaker 1: three or thirty six guys suited up because they had 866 00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 1: so many injuries. They don't want that to happen, and 867 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: quite frankly, let's make it clear. They don't want to 868 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 1: pay ninety guys and have them out there. They don't 869 00:48:56,719 --> 00:49:00,840 Speaker 1: want to pay ninety guys NFL salaries. It's to expend Yeah, 870 00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 1: practice squad guys. Okay, they're making less than the regulars, 871 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,440 Speaker 1: the guys on the roster. That's fine, they can that's 872 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 1: a hard number. They'll being just that much as allowed. 873 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:11,919 Speaker 1: They know that number. But when you start shuffling guys 874 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:15,960 Speaker 1: with contracts and each guy's individually negotiated, it gets way 875 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 1: way too expensive to have ninety guys on the field. 876 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 1: So they make it at forty eight fifty three overall 877 00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:25,719 Speaker 1: four and then you deactivate a certain amount because they 878 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 1: want to cover themselves for injuries. It's competitive advantage too. 879 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,799 Speaker 1: That's about Think about the Week three game where half 880 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:34,600 Speaker 1: the Bill's roster was injured. They somehow managed to field 881 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,799 Speaker 1: forty seven players. But what if those rules were not 882 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 1: in place, and Miami's got sixty guys dressed and the 883 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 1: Bills have forty seven healthy dudes in ninety five degree 884 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 1: heat and they have thirteen extra players. That's a competitive 885 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:48,799 Speaker 1: disadvantage for the Bills. That's why the rules in place. 886 00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:50,279 Speaker 1: To begin with, all right, we gotta take a break. 887 00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:52,920 Speaker 1: When we come back, it's Brian Balding or joining us 888 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 1: from NFL Network. We're back in a flash here on 889 00:49:54,880 --> 00:50:41,200 Speaker 1: One Bill's Live. These One Bills Live presented by Call 890 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:45,200 Speaker 1: Light to Health, our number two on a Wednesday, Chris Brown, 891 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 1: Steve Tasker with you here on One Bills Live. Time 892 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,480 Speaker 1: for us to turn to the man who's going to 893 00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:54,760 Speaker 1: be the radio color analyst with Chris Carino on Compass 894 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:58,360 Speaker 1: Media Networks when the Bills head to Kansas City on Sunday. 895 00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:01,800 Speaker 1: So if you are not in the Bill's radio network 896 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 1: listening area, if you're somewhere else in the country, you 897 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:08,319 Speaker 1: can probably pull the game in on radio Compass Media 898 00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 1: Networks and Brian Baldinger will be on the call also, 899 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,319 Speaker 1: as you know, an NFL network analyst and famous for 900 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:17,360 Speaker 1: his baldy breakdowns on his Twitter account at Baldy NFL. 901 00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 1: Here is Brian Baldinger. Okay, Baldy, let's begin here Chiefs 902 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:27,040 Speaker 1: Bill's week, which almost feels like a division week because 903 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 1: this is the fifth time they're meeting in the last 904 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:33,040 Speaker 1: three years, counting playoffs. What do you I mean, the 905 00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:35,759 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are obviously the central focus of this whole thing, 906 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:39,120 Speaker 1: but in your estimation, what do you think makes the 907 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:46,160 Speaker 1: matchup so special? Well, I think there are two premier organizations. 908 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:48,480 Speaker 1: You know, what they have done in Buffalo is what 909 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 1: every team that's trying to find some footing and you'll 910 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 1: become a perennial playoff team is trying to emulate in 911 00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:58,360 Speaker 1: Kansas City with you know, with Andy Reid and the 912 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:01,759 Speaker 1: Hunt family, like they've got that down. That's what they did, 913 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:06,719 Speaker 1: is it's two elite, premier organizations that have done everything right. 914 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 1: They have identified their franchise quarterback. They have done nothing 915 00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 1: but build around their franchise quarterback. They picked the right guy, 916 00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:17,880 Speaker 1: you know, for all the right reasons, and the talent 917 00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,680 Speaker 1: level is supreme, and so I think that's the big part. 918 00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 1: And then you know, maybe the one of the best 919 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:27,120 Speaker 1: playoff games any of us have ever seen you know, 920 00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 1: finished the season for the Bills last year. It was 921 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:31,840 Speaker 1: so good they had to change the rules so that 922 00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:34,879 Speaker 1: nothing like that ever happens again. And Josh Allen isn't 923 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 1: just snubbed from getting a chance to go down to score. 924 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,640 Speaker 1: So all those things, and then you know that both 925 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:44,440 Speaker 1: teams have tremendous star power, and you know, look, this 926 00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:47,799 Speaker 1: is a game where we talk about the stars, you know, 927 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:50,680 Speaker 1: and we put the cameras on the stars, and the 928 00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:55,600 Speaker 1: stars in these games Travis Kelsey and Mahomes and Chris 929 00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 1: Jones and Von Miller and Stefan Digg. I mean, the 930 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,399 Speaker 1: camera will be on those guys because they know, they 931 00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:05,279 Speaker 1: know just how big this is on Sunday afternoon. You're right, 932 00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:09,520 Speaker 1: and it started immediately. And I'm from the state of Kansas. 933 00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:11,239 Speaker 1: My family lives back there. It's tough one to be 934 00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:14,239 Speaker 1: Bills fans back there, but they are. But from the 935 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:17,280 Speaker 1: word go, I mean, I go back there, and certainly 936 00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:19,720 Speaker 1: here in Buffalo, Western New York. It's after that game, 937 00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:21,520 Speaker 1: that thirteen second game, it was like we got to 938 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:24,759 Speaker 1: change the rules. Everybody and everybody was clamoring for that 939 00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:27,719 Speaker 1: never to happen again. But really, the simple fact of 940 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 1: the matter, is this Boldie. We just don't want those 941 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 1: games to end. We lust you know you want to 942 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:35,440 Speaker 1: You just want to keep watching that right, the pressure, 943 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:39,960 Speaker 1: the drama, and people keep making heroic efforts to continue 944 00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 1: that game. That's what we all want to see. How 945 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,800 Speaker 1: likely is it that Sunday at four twenty five we 946 00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 1: get the same thing? Well, I think it's I think 947 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 1: it could be a very similar track. Meet Steve. Uh. 948 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:55,560 Speaker 1: You know these games sometimes they just they might start slow, 949 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:58,279 Speaker 1: but then it's like, okay, who can stop the other guy? 950 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:00,719 Speaker 1: And pretty soon any ann are a fan, you don't 951 00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:03,000 Speaker 1: have to be an analyst. Any fans going or whoever 952 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,319 Speaker 1: gets the ball last is gonna win this game. And 953 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:06,880 Speaker 1: so it doesn't matter how much time is left. I 954 00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,600 Speaker 1: saw last week on Monday Night, Kansas City gets the 955 00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:13,400 Speaker 1: ball through twenty five, Steve, there's seventeen seconds left in 956 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:17,040 Speaker 1: the first half, and there's Kansas City attacking and they 957 00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:20,000 Speaker 1: get the Raiders out of position, they got a face 958 00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:22,480 Speaker 1: mask penalty, they make one more play and they kicked 959 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 1: a fifty nine yard field goal. You know, like there's 960 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,960 Speaker 1: no amount of time that you know, is it safe? 961 00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:30,680 Speaker 1: I mean last week opening drive, third play the game. 962 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 1: You're backed up on your two yard line. You know, 963 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:37,000 Speaker 1: you take you take a shot. Like most teams are like, 964 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 1: let's get two more yards in punt, But not Buffalo 965 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:43,120 Speaker 1: or Kansas City, like they can attack from anywhere on 966 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 1: the field. They kind of break all the mold when 967 00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 1: it comes to what's what's the right way to play 968 00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:52,000 Speaker 1: this game? What's field? It's just it's it's attracked me. 969 00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:56,920 Speaker 1: So with that in mind, who has the ball last? 970 00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 1: Steve and I are pretty convinced the n number one 971 00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:04,640 Speaker 1: reason von Miller was signed here was to beat Kansas 972 00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:08,319 Speaker 1: City and have that answer if Kansas City has the 973 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 1: last possession of the game, just how do you see 974 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:15,920 Speaker 1: von Miller in terms of potentially being the closer they 975 00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 1: need to maybe finally finish off this Chiefs team. You know, 976 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:22,000 Speaker 1: I think I might have mentioned this when I was 977 00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:23,720 Speaker 1: up at training camp to you guys, But I remember 978 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,560 Speaker 1: talking to Von after practice I was at and I 979 00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:29,080 Speaker 1: was asking about, you know, the development of Boogie and 980 00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:32,400 Speaker 1: Rousseau and you know, some of the young guys, and 981 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:35,840 Speaker 1: he was like, it's not really like that, Baldy, Like 982 00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,760 Speaker 1: they all work on their mechanics and their pass rush moves. 983 00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:42,440 Speaker 1: What I'm trying to teach them is the moment of 984 00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: the game. You know, how to finish a game. You 985 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,319 Speaker 1: know obviously Steve, you played with Bruce and Bruce knew 986 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,000 Speaker 1: how to finish a game like it didn't really matter 987 00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:54,040 Speaker 1: what you did the first three quarters. Can you make 988 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:56,360 Speaker 1: the play when you need to make the play to 989 00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 1: finish the game? And after you're talking about Jay and 990 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:01,440 Speaker 1: so Von knows that he did it in the Super Bowl. 991 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 1: He's done it in the Super Bowl in both Super Bowls, 992 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:07,400 Speaker 1: and so this is it's not Super Bowl Sunday to 993 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:10,040 Speaker 1: him yet, but it's gonna feel a lot like a 994 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:13,279 Speaker 1: playoff game on Sunday afternoon. The whole world's watching. It's 995 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:16,640 Speaker 1: three forty five National TV. Everybody's gonna be tuned in. 996 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 1: And that's and Von knows. It's not pressure to him. 997 00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 1: It's not like he has to go perform. He knows it, 998 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,480 Speaker 1: and that's why he's He's why he's there. And so 999 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:30,680 Speaker 1: we'll see can he beat I don't know, Zeus at 1000 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:34,000 Speaker 1: left tackle? Can he you know, beat Andrew Wiley wherever 1001 00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 1: he's lined up and get to hit on the homes 1002 00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:39,920 Speaker 1: and stop that, you know, that final throw to Kelsey 1003 00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:42,640 Speaker 1: to try to win a game. So both these clubs 1004 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:46,560 Speaker 1: show up disappointingly, probably for both of them four and one, 1005 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 1: if you can say that right. I mean, the Bills 1006 00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:51,000 Speaker 1: feel like they should have, should have, would have could 1007 00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:52,760 Speaker 1: have beaten Miami if it would have been a seventy 1008 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 1: five degree day instead of a ninety five degree day. 1009 00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 1: They feel like they walk out of there with a win. 1010 00:56:56,719 --> 00:57:00,640 Speaker 1: The Chiefs always feel like that. So how does the 1011 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:05,160 Speaker 1: where these teams sit the playoff implications? I've made the 1012 00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 1: statement that the Bills have this dragon to slay in 1013 00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:11,120 Speaker 1: Kansas City. This game is not that dragon. A playoff 1014 00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:14,840 Speaker 1: game is that dragon? Yes? How likely is that? You 1015 00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 1: think that where these teams meet up in the playoffs 1016 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 1: and where they're gonna be, and if it is in Buffalo, 1017 00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:22,000 Speaker 1: how's that change the equation? Well, there're two playoff teams 1018 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:23,800 Speaker 1: for sure. I mean, people thought the a FC West 1019 00:57:23,920 --> 00:57:26,440 Speaker 1: was going to be this this juggernaut. It still might be, 1020 00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:28,520 Speaker 1: but it doesn't look It looks like it's Kansas City 1021 00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 1: and everybody else. You know, the coaching, the organization. The 1022 00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:34,880 Speaker 1: same thing with Buffalo, Like Buffalo is gonna win the 1023 00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:37,400 Speaker 1: East and so they're gonna have home playoff games and 1024 00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:40,520 Speaker 1: eventually they may you know, depending on the the seedings 1025 00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:43,800 Speaker 1: all that they could meet again. Home field advantage is 1026 00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:47,240 Speaker 1: really important, Steve. You know, so uh you know that's 1027 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:50,440 Speaker 1: that's that's there's something to play for throughout this thing. 1028 00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:55,040 Speaker 1: But you know, just watching the Raiders attack Kansas City 1029 00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 1: last week and then watching what Buffalo did to Pittsburgh, 1030 00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:03,280 Speaker 1: like you like, I've never seen Buffalo attack like that, Steve. 1031 00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 1: Even when you threw the like it looked like they 1032 00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,480 Speaker 1: Levi Wallace. It was a guy that they didn't like anymore. 1033 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:12,160 Speaker 1: You know, they went out to Levi repeatedly from the 1034 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 1: first series of the game. And then you know, Levi 1035 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:18,360 Speaker 1: gets interception in the end zone against Gabriel Davis. It's 1036 00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:21,240 Speaker 1: great play, and like Buffalo gets the ball back the 1037 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:23,880 Speaker 1: very next play, they go right after Levi Wallace for 1038 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:27,160 Speaker 1: a sixty eight yard touchdown. Like they never stopped attacking 1039 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:30,560 Speaker 1: in that game. And you know, I feel like the 1040 00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 1: run to Singletary or Moss or whatever, it's just like 1041 00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:35,880 Speaker 1: to rest Josh's arm, you know, just give him a breather. 1042 00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:39,600 Speaker 1: And if you watch what the Raiders did with Davante, 1043 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:43,120 Speaker 1: like they threw five deep shots at Davante Adams against 1044 00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:46,080 Speaker 1: Kansas City. He had two touchdowns and he had two 1045 00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:49,760 Speaker 1: defensive pass interference penalties on deep shots, Like I'd go 1046 00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 1: after these corners in safeties in Kansas City. And you know, 1047 00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:55,800 Speaker 1: let my guys, you know, I saw the little protection 1048 00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 1: scheme last week with Sweeney and the back back there 1049 00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:01,640 Speaker 1: next to job. It's just making sure that he had 1050 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,400 Speaker 1: a chance to really launch a missile down the field. 1051 00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:07,160 Speaker 1: So I think this is just gonna be bombs away 1052 00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:12,120 Speaker 1: from Buffalo standpoint. And what about the Chiefs and the 1053 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:15,800 Speaker 1: new weapons that they added, you know this offseason. Obviously 1054 00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:18,000 Speaker 1: no Tyreek there now, and they had to kind of 1055 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,840 Speaker 1: replace firepower, and they have the perceived deep threat in 1056 00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:25,440 Speaker 1: valved is Scandling. You know, the intermediate guy in Smith Schuster. 1057 00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:29,160 Speaker 1: I know, you crunch the tape. Aldi. So how how 1058 00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:33,439 Speaker 1: has the blend worked through their first five games. It's 1059 00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:35,360 Speaker 1: been good, but it's a little bit like what most 1060 00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:38,280 Speaker 1: people thought. I mean, Mahomes is gonna he's just gonna 1061 00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:41,080 Speaker 1: throw the open guy like that's the game. And so 1062 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:44,240 Speaker 1: when he moves, you know, if you want to catch 1063 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:46,400 Speaker 1: the ball, then you better move with him. And find 1064 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:49,000 Speaker 1: the opening and you know, figure out where the lane 1065 00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:50,960 Speaker 1: is for him to get you the ball, because from 1066 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:53,920 Speaker 1: any angle he can find you. But you know, the 1067 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,280 Speaker 1: one thing that's missing is just that, you know, the 1068 00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:59,760 Speaker 1: threat of the home run on fourth and fifteen. Can 1069 00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:02,160 Speaker 1: you just throw it up to Tyree Hill and then 1070 01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:03,920 Speaker 1: go get it like he's doing down in Miami right now. 1071 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,560 Speaker 1: They just don't have that player, um and so it's 1072 01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:09,480 Speaker 1: a little bit different. They just don't have just the 1073 01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:13,120 Speaker 1: that kind of juice. But they're all those guys and 1074 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:15,880 Speaker 1: sky More is just coming on. All those guys are good. 1075 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:18,600 Speaker 1: They're all good players. You know, Juju has got his role. 1076 01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:22,000 Speaker 1: He's done a guy that's gonna beat you know, a 1077 01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:24,680 Speaker 1: whole lot of man coverage and run away from people 1078 01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:26,919 Speaker 1: who don't have that kind of speed Val does does. 1079 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:29,600 Speaker 1: But you know he's got he's got issues with his hands. 1080 01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:32,840 Speaker 1: He drops balls. Um So, but they'll just keep firing. 1081 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:35,720 Speaker 1: I mean they'll help. They'll throw to all three tight ends, 1082 01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:39,920 Speaker 1: m justin Watson. I mean they'll have I think they 1083 01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:42,000 Speaker 1: complete the balls to nine different people the other night. 1084 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:44,680 Speaker 1: Like they'll just keep throwing and just keep firing. Uh, 1085 01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:47,720 Speaker 1: the offense is really good. It's really creative, a lot 1086 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:51,120 Speaker 1: of formations, a lot of motions. You gotta prepare for 1087 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:54,240 Speaker 1: a lot, Baldly great stuff is great talking to you. 1088 01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:56,840 Speaker 1: Hope to cross pass down down the road and maybe 1089 01:00:56,840 --> 01:00:59,240 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Well, I'm gonna be out there Sunday 1090 01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:02,640 Speaker 1: announcing that game, Steve So I'm I got my ticket 1091 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:07,560 Speaker 1: punch to Kansas City. I'm excited about it. Good scene, man, Okay, anytime, buddy. 1092 01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:11,200 Speaker 1: All right, that's Brian Baldinger joining us here from NFL 1093 01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:13,680 Speaker 1: Network And as he mentioned there right at the end, 1094 01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:18,000 Speaker 1: he is going to be doing color commentary on the 1095 01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:23,160 Speaker 1: Compass Media Networks, which is National Radio four the Bills 1096 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:27,000 Speaker 1: Chiefs game, which, in case you didn't know, is in 1097 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:30,200 Speaker 1: the four o'clock window, and it's the big national four 1098 01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:33,160 Speaker 1: o'clock window game. It's going to about ninety percent of 1099 01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:36,200 Speaker 1: the country this week. Just about everybody and their brother 1100 01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:39,880 Speaker 1: is going to have access to that game. It's the 1101 01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:42,040 Speaker 1: marquee game in a week. I mean, let's be honest. 1102 01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:44,560 Speaker 1: That's why it's Sunday, and people think Monday night or 1103 01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:47,960 Speaker 1: Sunday night football. The game that gets the biggest number 1104 01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 1: is the Sunday four twenty five game Eastern. That's the game, 1105 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 1: and the Bills are in it. They are, so that's 1106 01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:00,439 Speaker 1: why they they they wait to flex those games all that. 1107 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:03,320 Speaker 1: That's the window when everybody's all settled in for the game. 1108 01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:06,080 Speaker 1: Everybody's gone to the one o'clock game, or watch the game. 1109 01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:09,760 Speaker 1: Everybody's watching the same game as that four twenty five game. 1110 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:12,400 Speaker 1: It will be nationally televised. It's the it's going to 1111 01:02:12,480 --> 01:02:15,520 Speaker 1: be the equivalent of a Monday night game or a 1112 01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:20,160 Speaker 1: Sunday night game. It's essentially the game everybody's seeing at 1113 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:25,200 Speaker 1: four twenty five's right, So there you have it as 1114 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:30,080 Speaker 1: even in Fairbanks, Alaska, you're getting that game or Honolulu. 1115 01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:34,200 Speaker 1: That is correct. So pretty cool deal. And why not 1116 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:37,400 Speaker 1: You got the top two scoring offenses in all of 1117 01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:40,680 Speaker 1: football playing each other and squaring off in this one. 1118 01:02:41,080 --> 01:02:44,680 Speaker 1: We do have an injury update as you look at 1119 01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:46,600 Speaker 1: as our MSG viewers are looking at a couple of 1120 01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:50,760 Speaker 1: stats and Steve and I did this in the podcast 1121 01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 1: this week are Bills by the Numbers podcast. We kind 1122 01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:56,600 Speaker 1: of had fun in the Numbers game where I quiz 1123 01:02:56,680 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 1: Steve every week and it's pretty good. This week I 1124 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:03,080 Speaker 1: reduced it. You killed it in the numbers game this week, 1125 01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:06,040 Speaker 1: but I reduced it down to Josh Allen and Patrick 1126 01:03:06,120 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 1: mahomes statistical numbers in their four head to head meetings specifically, 1127 01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:17,120 Speaker 1: and it was uncanny how close their numbers were. And 1128 01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 1: here are their numbers this year thus far, and those 1129 01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:24,840 Speaker 1: numbers are very comparable as well. So, yeah, these guys 1130 01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:27,640 Speaker 1: are the top tier and they're going to be the 1131 01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:30,200 Speaker 1: top tier for a long time. Yeah, you can. You 1132 01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:36,880 Speaker 1: can pick whatever you want, whether it's whether it's Jim Kelly, 1133 01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:40,520 Speaker 1: Dan Marino or you know, pick the era of your choice. 1134 01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:45,080 Speaker 1: Manning and Brady, Um, it's Mahomes and at John at 1135 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:48,320 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. That's they're the two guys and right now 1136 01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:50,320 Speaker 1: that are going at it. And there are other guys there, 1137 01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:53,240 Speaker 1: but you know, Brady and Rogers now are kind of 1138 01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:57,320 Speaker 1: especially this season, they're kind of struggling. They're scraping or 1139 01:03:57,320 --> 01:03:59,560 Speaker 1: a still great quarterbacks, but they're you know, they're past 1140 01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 1: their prime. These two guys are humming. So it's gonna 1141 01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,520 Speaker 1: be these two guys for a while. And I can't 1142 01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:09,080 Speaker 1: wait to see these guys play. It's gonna be fun. 1143 01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 1: It's gonna be really fun. We gave you the Bills 1144 01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:14,280 Speaker 1: injury update. One thing we did not mention concerning the 1145 01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:18,200 Speaker 1: Bills was Micah Hyde. Head coach Sean McDermott confirmed the 1146 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:22,280 Speaker 1: reports that Hyde underwent next surgery out in California for 1147 01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:27,240 Speaker 1: his herniated disc. Surgery deemed successful. Coach said he did 1148 01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:29,120 Speaker 1: speak to him by phone and that he was in 1149 01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:31,360 Speaker 1: good spirits and he's looking forward to seeing him back 1150 01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:35,000 Speaker 1: here in the building. But pretty much his twenty twenty 1151 01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:38,120 Speaker 1: two season is done. He's looking to return next season 1152 01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:40,760 Speaker 1: as he now has a six to nine month rehabilitation 1153 01:04:41,320 --> 01:04:45,400 Speaker 1: ahead of him. Injury update for the Chiefs today. Four 1154 01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:48,320 Speaker 1: players not practicing today ahead of the game with the Bills, 1155 01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 1: and most of those injuries are in their secondary safety 1156 01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 1: Brian Cook in the concussion protocol, not practicing, starting cornerback 1157 01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:03,600 Speaker 1: Rashad Fenton hamstring injury, not practicing, backup corner Chris Lammon's 1158 01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:07,360 Speaker 1: hip pointer not practicing, and they also lost defensive tackle 1159 01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:12,160 Speaker 1: to Shaun Wharton, a reserve defensive tackle for the season. 1160 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:15,560 Speaker 1: He tore his ACL in the game on Monday night. 1161 01:05:15,880 --> 01:05:19,000 Speaker 1: Two other injury notes for the Chiefs that will be 1162 01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 1: of interest their first round draft choice cornerback Trent McDuffie, 1163 01:05:22,800 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 1: out of Washington, has not played since Week one due 1164 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:30,520 Speaker 1: to a hamstring injury. He returned to practice today much 1165 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:33,240 Speaker 1: the same way Tredavious White returned to practice. No word 1166 01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:37,200 Speaker 1: on McDuffie's game availability yet for Sunday, but if they 1167 01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 1: can get him back in the lineup, that would be 1168 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:42,200 Speaker 1: a huge development for them in light of how injury 1169 01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 1: riddled their secondary is right now, and then their primary kicker, 1170 01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:50,960 Speaker 1: Harrison Butker, has been out since Week one with a 1171 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:56,520 Speaker 1: badly sprained left ankle, which is his plant foot. He 1172 01:05:56,560 --> 01:05:58,920 Speaker 1: has been out since week one with that because when 1173 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:03,400 Speaker 1: they played in Arizona in Week one the turf was awful. 1174 01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:07,200 Speaker 1: He plants his foot for the opening kickoff and rolls 1175 01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:10,080 Speaker 1: his ankle with his full body weight on that foot, 1176 01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:14,800 Speaker 1: and the swelling has been out of control for over 1177 01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:18,040 Speaker 1: a month. They cannot get the swelling out of his ankle, 1178 01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:21,800 Speaker 1: and as such, the Chiefs have had two different kickers 1179 01:06:21,800 --> 01:06:25,240 Speaker 1: so far this season in place of Pucker. But He 1180 01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:30,520 Speaker 1: is practicing in some capacity today, so there's an outside 1181 01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:33,640 Speaker 1: possibility he could be back in the lineup for the Chiefs, 1182 01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:35,439 Speaker 1: which would be big for them. He is a very, 1183 01:06:35,560 --> 01:06:42,160 Speaker 1: very good kicker. Yeah, I'm that's crazy because because the 1184 01:06:42,280 --> 01:06:44,920 Speaker 1: Chiefs missed a couple of few goals last night, the 1185 01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:48,280 Speaker 1: kid hits a fifty nine yard or right before halftime 1186 01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:53,000 Speaker 1: and then blows two bunnies. Yeah, two easy kicks. That's 1187 01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:55,040 Speaker 1: what you're gonna get though with a fill in. It's 1188 01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:56,959 Speaker 1: a little bit of a roller coaster. So we'll see 1189 01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:59,400 Speaker 1: how if Budker can get back in. That's a long 1190 01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:03,000 Speaker 1: ankle sprain. I gotta say, yeah, there's something wrong there 1191 01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:05,040 Speaker 1: because they've tried everything under the sun. They can't they 1192 01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:07,160 Speaker 1: can't get it right, but hopefully maybe they've come to 1193 01:07:07,160 --> 01:07:08,720 Speaker 1: the bottom of it now and have to have it 1194 01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:11,680 Speaker 1: figured out. We break here because when we come back, 1195 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:14,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna have our Fresh off the Field interview presented 1196 01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:18,000 Speaker 1: by Austin Air.

Khalil, I'm sorry, 1205 01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:52,680 Speaker 1: we don't have a towel for you. We'll wipe you 1206 01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:54,880 Speaker 1: off next time and give you the opportunities. You guys 1207 01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:58,640 Speaker 1: literally come fresh off the field. Yeah, it's all good. Yeah, 1208 01:07:58,320 --> 01:08:01,680 Speaker 1: gotta wipe it down, grab a sleeve. How people ask 1209 01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:04,600 Speaker 1: all the time, how did it feel like to actually 1210 01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:06,320 Speaker 1: get a chance to get in the game, get into 1211 01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:09,080 Speaker 1: a field, get into a rhythm play after play, because 1212 01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:11,720 Speaker 1: it is a big It is different then just coming 1213 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:13,439 Speaker 1: in taking it, having a guy to take a blow 1214 01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:15,400 Speaker 1: for one play, coming right back off. Yeah, I mean 1215 01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:18,439 Speaker 1: it felt good. Obviously, would have loved to have Isaiah 1216 01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:20,800 Speaker 1: out there. He's been a big time mentor to me 1217 01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:23,360 Speaker 1: just since I've been here. You know, he's the one 1218 01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:25,320 Speaker 1: that got me right to go out there and play 1219 01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:26,960 Speaker 1: along with all the others in that room. But he's 1220 01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:29,040 Speaker 1: whenever I come off the field, he's telling me like 1221 01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:30,960 Speaker 1: what he saw within routes and stuff like that. But 1222 01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:33,560 Speaker 1: it felt good to get going, get in that rhythm, 1223 01:08:33,720 --> 01:08:37,000 Speaker 1: make some plays Obviously I had a missed opportunity out 1224 01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,280 Speaker 1: there as well talking about my drop. But it was 1225 01:08:39,320 --> 01:08:41,479 Speaker 1: fun just to get out there, build a momentum with 1226 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:44,000 Speaker 1: the guys, and you know, just have fun overall. So 1227 01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:47,160 Speaker 1: I know, you spend time during the practice week last 1228 01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:49,880 Speaker 1: week in there to try to field some punts because 1229 01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:52,120 Speaker 1: you know, the wind can do some nasty stuff in there. 1230 01:08:52,160 --> 01:08:53,800 Speaker 1: This guy even had to deal with it for a 1231 01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:56,240 Speaker 1: long time as a special teams guy. He knows what 1232 01:08:56,280 --> 01:08:58,640 Speaker 1: the wind does in there, and it was pretty it 1233 01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:00,840 Speaker 1: was pretty dicey early on. I wanted trouble with the 1234 01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:04,519 Speaker 1: opening kickoff. You decided to stay away from one. Yeah, Um, 1235 01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:08,599 Speaker 1: what was the general message going in from from coach Smiley, like, hey, 1236 01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:10,439 Speaker 1: if you're not sure, just let it, let it bounce, 1237 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:13,320 Speaker 1: or what was the what was the approach? Smart decisions, 1238 01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:15,960 Speaker 1: make the smart decision. Obviously, as a turn I always 1239 01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:17,599 Speaker 1: want to catch the ball, I mean that's the number 1240 01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:19,280 Speaker 1: one thing. But also making sure that we just get 1241 01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:21,439 Speaker 1: the ball back to the offense, that's the main thing. Yeah, 1242 01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:24,280 Speaker 1: you got to end the play with the ball, Yeah, exactly, exactly. 1243 01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:27,240 Speaker 1: So I don't know, I just made a terrible read 1244 01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:29,519 Speaker 1: on that one and I thought I could get under it, 1245 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:31,479 Speaker 1: but just I saw the punt. The punt, the nose 1246 01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:34,080 Speaker 1: never came down, so it held up, so you couldn't 1247 01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:36,360 Speaker 1: get up fast enough to get If it turns over, 1248 01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:39,080 Speaker 1: you were you were lined up deep enough, right, But 1249 01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:42,439 Speaker 1: when it didn't turn over, it held up, and yet 1250 01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:44,599 Speaker 1: you couldn't get there in time. Yeah, it was moving 1251 01:09:44,640 --> 01:09:47,479 Speaker 1: around a little bit. Yeah, yeah, you give it to 1252 01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:50,639 Speaker 1: give us a little sense of you know that they 1253 01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:52,559 Speaker 1: come out of yours first and goal first and ten 1254 01:09:52,640 --> 01:09:54,439 Speaker 1: on the two front, you know, on that first couple 1255 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:59,479 Speaker 1: of plays in completion a run for no gain. I 1256 01:09:59,520 --> 01:10:03,240 Speaker 1: think that sounds right, and then Josh is dropping back 1257 01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:06,800 Speaker 1: and I mean that's for me, and I've used this phrase, 1258 01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:09,160 Speaker 1: that's a huge stress relief for the whole team because 1259 01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:10,200 Speaker 1: you want to get off to a fast star you 1260 01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:11,679 Speaker 1: don't know how it's gonna go. Then when you score 1261 01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:14,519 Speaker 1: that quick touchdown, I don't play like that. It's like, okay, 1262 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:17,160 Speaker 1: now let's go kind of thing. Right. Yeah, No, that 1263 01:10:17,240 --> 01:10:19,679 Speaker 1: was amazing. I mean that was my first time being 1264 01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:21,840 Speaker 1: on the field and seeing something like that from that 1265 01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:25,160 Speaker 1: as well, so I know they the crazier part of it, 1266 01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:28,080 Speaker 1: not to me, guys have seen that, like yeah, and 1267 01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:30,639 Speaker 1: they were at Digs and Gabe were both doubled and 1268 01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:33,160 Speaker 1: Gabe still took off and beat them down the field. 1269 01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:35,000 Speaker 1: So just to see it from that point of view 1270 01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:38,599 Speaker 1: and turn and see Gabe just gasing down the field, 1271 01:10:38,640 --> 01:10:40,840 Speaker 1: it was it was crazy. I know, you kind of 1272 01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:43,719 Speaker 1: seem to be a guy that just takes everything in stride. 1273 01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:45,920 Speaker 1: I know you admitted, you know after the game last week. 1274 01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:49,040 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie, there wasn't nerves. But how much 1275 01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:53,840 Speaker 1: did getting into the Baltimore game late on offense kind 1276 01:10:53,840 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 1: of make this past week starting a little bit easier? Yeah? 1277 01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:00,000 Speaker 1: I mean it's a it's a confidence thing as well. 1278 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,200 Speaker 1: You know you when I got in towards the end 1279 01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:04,160 Speaker 1: of that game and you know, made a couple of players, 1280 01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:06,120 Speaker 1: made a couple of catches and was out there for 1281 01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:09,080 Speaker 1: you know, that fourth quarter going into the next week. 1282 01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:11,599 Speaker 1: I guess that confidence in the momentum just took over 1283 01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:13,600 Speaker 1: throughout the week and into that carried over into the 1284 01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:15,680 Speaker 1: next game. So I think it was it was very 1285 01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:18,160 Speaker 1: important and it all worked out. So you've been here 1286 01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:21,439 Speaker 1: for five games so far. You were not here any 1287 01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:25,320 Speaker 1: games before this. Have you sensed a difference this week 1288 01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:28,919 Speaker 1: because it's Kansas City. Uh No. I mean the guys 1289 01:11:28,960 --> 01:11:31,439 Speaker 1: every single week, it's you know, the main message is 1290 01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:33,479 Speaker 1: this next game is the most it's the most important 1291 01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:36,120 Speaker 1: because it's the next game. And they literally that's there. 1292 01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,360 Speaker 1: That's just what we say every single week, no matter 1293 01:11:38,439 --> 01:11:41,240 Speaker 1: who we play. And you know, the approach throughout the 1294 01:11:41,240 --> 01:11:43,200 Speaker 1: week is the same to make sure that we prepare 1295 01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:46,519 Speaker 1: the best way possible, starting you know, yesterday and all 1296 01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:48,200 Speaker 1: the way up until game time so we can go 1297 01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:53,720 Speaker 1: out there and be successful. How beneficial is it in 1298 01:11:53,800 --> 01:11:57,000 Speaker 1: practice going against a guy like Tarn Johnson. I mean 1299 01:11:57,400 --> 01:12:00,439 Speaker 1: most people consider him a top five nickel, maybe even 1300 01:12:00,479 --> 01:12:03,080 Speaker 1: a top three nickel in this league. I mean, when 1301 01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:06,479 Speaker 1: you can get quality reps in practice, I don't want 1302 01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:09,880 Speaker 1: to say it makes the games easy, but I don't 1303 01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:14,519 Speaker 1: have another term. Does it make it seem relatively no 1304 01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:18,240 Speaker 1: different than practice, if not easier going against Terran every day? Yeah, 1305 01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:20,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, against Tarin and those guys throughout 1306 01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:23,720 Speaker 1: the whole week of practice and you know, losing a 1307 01:12:23,720 --> 01:12:25,639 Speaker 1: lot of reps. You know, those guys are really really good, 1308 01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:28,280 Speaker 1: and then you get into the game and the moves 1309 01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:31,320 Speaker 1: and the reaction between releases and routes just become more natural. 1310 01:12:32,439 --> 01:12:34,559 Speaker 1: But you know, it's it's it's insane. You know, last week, 1311 01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:37,000 Speaker 1: got a couple of releases with Taran after practice and 1312 01:12:37,360 --> 01:12:39,600 Speaker 1: just to see his technique and what he's doing. And 1313 01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:42,320 Speaker 1: then I go back and watch my practice and see, 1314 01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:45,040 Speaker 1: you know, what releases worked, which one's dead in if 1315 01:12:45,080 --> 01:12:46,639 Speaker 1: I could release a better way, because if I can 1316 01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:48,439 Speaker 1: beat him, then I know that I will feel a 1317 01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:50,920 Speaker 1: lot more confident going into the next game. Now you've 1318 01:12:50,960 --> 01:12:54,759 Speaker 1: got we found out a lot about the roster because 1319 01:12:54,760 --> 01:12:58,280 Speaker 1: of Isaiah's injury and because of Crowder now being down, 1320 01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:01,479 Speaker 1: Kumero has been out, you got you know, it was 1321 01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:03,519 Speaker 1: all hands on deck trying to get ready for that 1322 01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:07,439 Speaker 1: for the game last week. Give us a sense now 1323 01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:09,760 Speaker 1: that you've got all these guys out there, and you 1324 01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:12,120 Speaker 1: know that it's got to be a huge vibe, upbeat 1325 01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:14,600 Speaker 1: vibe now that you've got all your guys. Yeah, I 1326 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:17,519 Speaker 1: mean not everybody who's still waiting Kumero to make his 1327 01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:19,519 Speaker 1: way back. And he's he's a big part of what 1328 01:13:19,560 --> 01:13:22,080 Speaker 1: we do as well. But like I said, like I 1329 01:13:22,080 --> 01:13:24,160 Speaker 1: said earlier, Isaiah's a big mentor to me and having 1330 01:13:24,240 --> 01:13:27,680 Speaker 1: him out there actually, you know, running the routes and practicing. Um, 1331 01:13:27,800 --> 01:13:30,400 Speaker 1: it's just it makes my vibe feel better as well, 1332 01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:31,840 Speaker 1: just having him out there, and a lot of the 1333 01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:35,120 Speaker 1: guys feed off of each other's energy and vibes, and 1334 01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:37,720 Speaker 1: today it was a really good day. I know. You know, 1335 01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:41,960 Speaker 1: you got a relatively good sized family. You've got three siblings, right, 1336 01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:46,920 Speaker 1: and two of them have a big time track background. Yeah, 1337 01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:51,120 Speaker 1: so when you bust up that sideline and you kind 1338 01:13:51,120 --> 01:13:53,920 Speaker 1: of drift out of bounds, were there some texts from 1339 01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:56,160 Speaker 1: the track side of your family like why didn't you 1340 01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:59,320 Speaker 1: just get that to the tape? No, I don't. They 1341 01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:01,639 Speaker 1: didn't really understand what I was trying to do there. 1342 01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:03,400 Speaker 1: I mean I didn't even really understand what I was 1343 01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:05,120 Speaker 1: trying to do there. When when you watch the film, 1344 01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:07,800 Speaker 1: it's like, I'm thinking, he's right on my hips. I'm 1345 01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:14,360 Speaker 1: really trying to give yourself right. Mean, yeah, you get 1346 01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:17,760 Speaker 1: a sense of it because that's people don't understand how 1347 01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:21,120 Speaker 1: you sense guys around because you can hear him. Yeah, 1348 01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:26,120 Speaker 1: and some guys run louder than other. Yeah. I definitely 1349 01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:29,679 Speaker 1: could have turned up a lot faster after watching the tape. Um, 1350 01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:33,080 Speaker 1: so rookie mistake for sure you made. Yeah, you just 1351 01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:35,200 Speaker 1: didn't realize how fast you were. You made more distance 1352 01:14:35,200 --> 01:14:37,120 Speaker 1: on him than you thought. It's making Fitzpatrick. It's an 1353 01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:39,559 Speaker 1: all pro. You're probably thinking, oh, this guy's right on me. Yeah, 1354 01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:42,599 Speaker 1: so I get it. What is the what is the 1355 01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:46,360 Speaker 1: sibling support? Like, I mean, you're all college athletes. You 1356 01:14:46,439 --> 01:14:49,639 Speaker 1: got a younger brother a Portland State, right, he's defensive lineman, 1357 01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:53,720 Speaker 1: I think, um, or you know, defensive back. Sorry, um. 1358 01:14:54,360 --> 01:14:57,120 Speaker 1: What was it like having two older siblings kind of 1359 01:14:57,479 --> 01:14:59,880 Speaker 1: be college athletes, you know, to kind of look up to, 1360 01:15:00,120 --> 01:15:02,400 Speaker 1: and then you know, you just kind of followed and 1361 01:15:02,439 --> 01:15:04,400 Speaker 1: did the same kind of thing your own way. Yeah. 1362 01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:07,080 Speaker 1: I always wanted to be just like my older brother, 1363 01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:10,320 Speaker 1: to be honest, and the way he handled business, the 1364 01:15:10,360 --> 01:15:12,680 Speaker 1: way he would handle his college schedule. I would go 1365 01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:14,280 Speaker 1: visit him all the time to see what it was 1366 01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:16,439 Speaker 1: like up there, and he kind of just paved the 1367 01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:19,559 Speaker 1: way for me. And any questions that I had even 1368 01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:21,599 Speaker 1: till this day, any question that I had just about 1369 01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:23,760 Speaker 1: you know, what's next, what's the next step, what do 1370 01:15:23,800 --> 01:15:25,600 Speaker 1: I do after this? What I do after that? You know, 1371 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:27,840 Speaker 1: I'm always in contact with him and he always leads 1372 01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:30,000 Speaker 1: me the right way. So between all my siblings, my 1373 01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:32,479 Speaker 1: little brother's really busy and he doesn't talk as much 1374 01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:34,479 Speaker 1: as the rest of us. And then my sister has 1375 01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:36,439 Speaker 1: a seven year old daughter, so she's taking care of 1376 01:15:36,479 --> 01:15:38,479 Speaker 1: the niece. So I try and connect with every single 1377 01:15:38,479 --> 01:15:40,280 Speaker 1: one of them, and whenever I asked them for advice, 1378 01:15:40,320 --> 01:15:42,760 Speaker 1: they all lead me in the right direction. So how 1379 01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:44,680 Speaker 1: does how do things change when now the room is 1380 01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:47,240 Speaker 1: getting more crowded again with and you know, the only 1381 01:15:47,240 --> 01:15:50,040 Speaker 1: guy out now as well, Crowder's out and Kumro's kind 1382 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:52,479 Speaker 1: of waiting on him. The reps have to be shared, 1383 01:15:52,800 --> 01:15:55,040 Speaker 1: but there's also more things for Ken Dorsey to do. 1384 01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:57,120 Speaker 1: More guys you can plug in at different spots. How 1385 01:15:57,160 --> 01:16:00,519 Speaker 1: does that rotation work with the reps in practice? I'm 1386 01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:02,679 Speaker 1: not sure. I mean I really just I'm standing there 1387 01:16:02,680 --> 01:16:04,880 Speaker 1: and I stay ready, stay warm on the sideline, and 1388 01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:08,120 Speaker 1: whenever they say ten, go in z x F, I'm 1389 01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:10,639 Speaker 1: ready to go in. So I don't really dive much 1390 01:16:10,680 --> 01:16:12,639 Speaker 1: into what are they gonna do? You know, I try 1391 01:16:12,680 --> 01:16:14,600 Speaker 1: not to think that way. It's just be ready for 1392 01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:16,360 Speaker 1: whatever position they want to put me out and go 1393 01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:20,320 Speaker 1: out there and give them all you have. You have 1394 01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:24,280 Speaker 1: a pretty unique childhood because your dad was in the Marines, 1395 01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:27,920 Speaker 1: so automatically you're gonna be bouncing around a little bit. Yeah, 1396 01:16:28,160 --> 01:16:31,320 Speaker 1: but Hawaii and Japan, Like, there aren't many kids in 1397 01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:34,479 Speaker 1: the US that have lived in Hawaii and Japan. Yeah, 1398 01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:39,240 Speaker 1: in addition to California. So walk me through the ages 1399 01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:41,880 Speaker 1: when you were in those two different places and what 1400 01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:45,719 Speaker 1: the exposure to not only the Japanese culture, but even 1401 01:16:45,720 --> 01:16:47,960 Speaker 1: in Hawaii. I mean, you got the Polynesian culture out there. 1402 01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:50,320 Speaker 1: How did that kind of impact you as a kid 1403 01:16:50,320 --> 01:16:53,479 Speaker 1: growing up? I think it honestly, without even realize that, it 1404 01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:55,800 Speaker 1: it helped me with my ability to adapt, adapt in 1405 01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:59,640 Speaker 1: just to certain situations. I don't remember much of Hawaii, 1406 01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 1: remember more of Japan or in Japan for six years, 1407 01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:04,880 Speaker 1: I believe, so I remember more of that in the culture. 1408 01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:08,559 Speaker 1: And you know, playing football down there was all the 1409 01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:11,160 Speaker 1: American bases played against each other, and there was you know, 1410 01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:13,640 Speaker 1: eight different teams that played each other. I remember my 1411 01:17:13,640 --> 01:17:16,280 Speaker 1: first year the league had just started in my division. 1412 01:17:16,320 --> 01:17:19,000 Speaker 1: It was only one my team and another team, and 1413 01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:21,400 Speaker 1: we only two teams in our age group. We played 1414 01:17:21,400 --> 01:17:25,400 Speaker 1: each other for like ten weeks straight and there's eleven 1415 01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:30,120 Speaker 1: eleven yea. Yeah, So then after that year more teams 1416 01:17:30,120 --> 01:17:32,800 Speaker 1: were made. You know, its just starting the league was new. 1417 01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:35,519 Speaker 1: But after that it wasn't like that ever again. But 1418 01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:38,240 Speaker 1: it's definitely a big adjustment living down there and seeing 1419 01:17:38,280 --> 01:17:40,479 Speaker 1: how they lived down there, adjusting to that, and then 1420 01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:43,720 Speaker 1: moving back to the US, back to California. Then you know, 1421 01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:47,639 Speaker 1: the two the lifestyles are completely different. Sure, So what's 1422 01:17:48,360 --> 01:17:51,280 Speaker 1: how's this your month and a half into your rookie 1423 01:17:51,280 --> 01:17:53,320 Speaker 1: season and what looks to be you know, you got 1424 01:17:53,320 --> 01:17:55,639 Speaker 1: to feel good about the trajectory you're on. What about 1425 01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:58,559 Speaker 1: how what do you think about Buffalo the Mafia home 1426 01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:01,080 Speaker 1: games opposed to road games. I mean the home games 1427 01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:04,000 Speaker 1: had to be like especially that opening game, the Monday 1428 01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:07,120 Speaker 1: night game against Tennessee. You know, it was a moment 1429 01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:10,240 Speaker 1: even Bills fans were like, wow, this is pretty cool. Yeah. 1430 01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:14,439 Speaker 1: I mean those Mafia is insane. I heard stories before 1431 01:18:14,760 --> 01:18:17,960 Speaker 1: we had the season started, and just to experience it. 1432 01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:20,400 Speaker 1: I mean even when we were down in Miami that 1433 01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:23,519 Speaker 1: were on the bus and there was a corner on 1434 01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:25,920 Speaker 1: the corner of a bar It's packed, and I was 1435 01:18:25,960 --> 01:18:28,599 Speaker 1: just like, this is insane. You know, lots of love 1436 01:18:28,680 --> 01:18:31,120 Speaker 1: from them and appreciate that a lot, because you know, 1437 01:18:31,160 --> 01:18:33,360 Speaker 1: as a young young man coming into the league, having 1438 01:18:33,360 --> 01:18:35,840 Speaker 1: that type of fan support and love is is huge. 1439 01:18:35,880 --> 01:18:39,080 Speaker 1: So so far it's been it's been amazing. And you 1440 01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:42,599 Speaker 1: just on the road, you know, you're just pretty much 1441 01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:44,760 Speaker 1: watching the ball on the line of scrimmage. Here it's like, 1442 01:18:44,800 --> 01:18:47,120 Speaker 1: I'm sure the guys have told you, like Arrowheads one 1443 01:18:47,120 --> 01:18:49,760 Speaker 1: of the loudest stadiums in the league, and for you 1444 01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:52,040 Speaker 1: it's just like, wait, just watch that ball and then 1445 01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:54,920 Speaker 1: once it's snapped in, I'm going because you're not you 1446 01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:58,360 Speaker 1: wouldn't hear anything anyway, Josh was saying stuff anyway, I 1447 01:18:58,360 --> 01:19:00,679 Speaker 1: mean he's using hand signals and everybody right right, it's 1448 01:19:00,680 --> 01:19:03,439 Speaker 1: really just watching the ball. And I always I remember, 1449 01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:06,040 Speaker 1: you know, as when I first got here, everything moved 1450 01:19:06,080 --> 01:19:07,679 Speaker 1: so much faster and I was laid off the ball, 1451 01:19:07,960 --> 01:19:10,120 Speaker 1: and when I was watching film, I always noticed that. 1452 01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:12,600 Speaker 1: So that's definitely a huge point of emphasis when I 1453 01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:14,840 Speaker 1: step on the field, it's make sure that I'm i know, 1454 01:19:15,080 --> 01:19:16,760 Speaker 1: look at the defense and get an idea of what 1455 01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:19,479 Speaker 1: they're trying to do, but lock into, um, you know, 1456 01:19:19,479 --> 01:19:21,960 Speaker 1: the ball, because no matter what the Cadence is the receivers, 1457 01:19:21,960 --> 01:19:24,760 Speaker 1: Cadence is the ball. So yeah, so this game is. 1458 01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:27,639 Speaker 1: People have been circling this game Builds fans and Chiefs 1459 01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:34,800 Speaker 1: fans since January, and because it the game turned out 1460 01:19:34,800 --> 01:19:37,120 Speaker 1: the way it did last time, they're people the fans 1461 01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:39,360 Speaker 1: were clamoring for a rules change because this game was 1462 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:41,320 Speaker 1: so good. The last time these two teams played, nobody 1463 01:19:41,320 --> 01:19:43,439 Speaker 1: wanted to dan. They just wanted to keep going right. 1464 01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:48,080 Speaker 1: Let's just keep the same way, right, Um, what's again? 1465 01:19:48,160 --> 01:19:50,200 Speaker 1: What's it mean now for you to you know, college 1466 01:19:50,240 --> 01:19:52,120 Speaker 1: kid watching games like that, and all of a sudden 1467 01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:53,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna be lining up and it's gonna be a 1468 01:19:53,640 --> 01:19:57,000 Speaker 1: virtual replay of a of a scene like that.

Thanks for the time, Khalil, We appreciate you stopping. 1485 01:20:39,479 --> 01:20:41,920 Speaker 1: And that's Khalil Shakier with our Fresh off the Field 1486 01:20:41,960 --> 01:20:44,920 Speaker 1: interview presented by Austin and we're gonna turn now to 1487 01:20:45,360 --> 01:20:50,040 Speaker 1: the podium where Josh Allen is addressing the media after practice. 1488 01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:56,479 Speaker 1: I know that game doesn't define you what happened back 1489 01:20:56,520 --> 01:21:00,320 Speaker 1: in January, but yet people are trying to find the 1490 01:21:00,320 --> 01:21:03,439 Speaker 1: Bills as being that game. If you, I'm not sure 1491 01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:08,679 Speaker 1: if you're watching by day that brings up thirteen seconds 1492 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:13,720 Speaker 1: just before having how do you deal with the outside 1493 01:21:13,840 --> 01:21:17,400 Speaker 1: noise that he's out there going into this game when 1494 01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:20,000 Speaker 1: going that thirteenth second is hanging over your head. Yeah, well, 1495 01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:23,560 Speaker 1: we stick to our mindset, um, you know, try to 1496 01:21:23,600 --> 01:21:26,280 Speaker 1: practice what coach mcdifferent preaches and that's playoff caliber, being 1497 01:21:26,320 --> 01:21:29,000 Speaker 1: the best versions of ourselves every time we step up 1498 01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:31,519 Speaker 1: in this building. Um, that's really all it is. We're 1499 01:21:31,520 --> 01:21:34,040 Speaker 1: taking it day by day, week by week, just trying 1500 01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:36,080 Speaker 1: to put our best foot forward in practice this week 1501 01:21:36,560 --> 01:21:38,680 Speaker 1: to go try and execute a game plan. Um. You know, 1502 01:21:38,800 --> 01:21:43,400 Speaker 1: come Sunday at four o'clock. Do you think this team 1503 01:21:43,400 --> 01:21:48,760 Speaker 1: has grown from from that difficult experience? I mean, I 1504 01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:50,160 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of things you can take away 1505 01:21:50,160 --> 01:21:52,880 Speaker 1: from that game that that can help you, whether it's 1506 01:21:52,880 --> 01:21:57,040 Speaker 1: situational football, understanding the flow of games, knowing the importance 1507 01:21:57,040 --> 01:22:01,760 Speaker 1: of home playoff games. Um. So again, that's that's neither 1508 01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,560 Speaker 1: here nor there right now. UM, But just situationally, we 1509 01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:07,559 Speaker 1: can take a lot from that and try to apply 1510 01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:09,960 Speaker 1: it to uh to practice and too when we play. 1511 01:22:10,080 --> 01:22:12,840 Speaker 1: So um again, we're just trying to just try to 1512 01:22:12,840 --> 01:22:17,000 Speaker 1: win a football game. Race there on the huddle. What 1513 01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:19,080 Speaker 1: does having him back kind of the energy? I know 1514 01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:20,479 Speaker 1: he's on the other side of the ball, but just 1515 01:22:20,640 --> 01:22:22,839 Speaker 1: having him back, Yeah, surprised, but I didn't see him 1516 01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:24,800 Speaker 1: throughout stretch and then all of a sudden, you know, 1517 01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:26,720 Speaker 1: we bring it up and he popped out on me. UM, 1518 01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:28,400 Speaker 1: it was good to see two seven back out there. 1519 01:22:29,360 --> 01:22:30,960 Speaker 1: I know he's chomping at the bit to get back 1520 01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:34,160 Speaker 1: to playing, and you know, just making sure he's taking 1521 01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:35,640 Speaker 1: his time and you know when he comes back, he's 1522 01:22:35,680 --> 01:22:38,760 Speaker 1: gonna be ready to go. UM. You know. So, I 1523 01:22:38,800 --> 01:22:40,479 Speaker 1: know guys were happy to see him out there. He's 1524 01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:42,800 Speaker 1: worked extremely hard, you know, this last year. I know 1525 01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:45,599 Speaker 1: it's been a trying year for him. But to see 1526 01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:48,640 Speaker 1: him kind of grow mentally off the field and on 1527 01:22:48,680 --> 01:22:51,120 Speaker 1: the field, Uh, you know, getting back out there and 1528 01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:53,400 Speaker 1: getting back to that player that he is and we 1529 01:22:53,439 --> 01:22:57,200 Speaker 1: know he is. UM, it's exciting for sure. One type 1530 01:22:57,200 --> 01:22:59,760 Speaker 1: of game that you guys haven't played in so far 1531 01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:02,599 Speaker 1: as one where you've had to protect the lead against 1532 01:23:02,600 --> 01:23:06,240 Speaker 1: the team coming back in Kansas City's known for their comebacks. All. 1533 01:23:06,479 --> 01:23:09,040 Speaker 1: How confident you feel the offense is ready to play 1534 01:23:09,120 --> 01:23:10,920 Speaker 1: that type of game where you you might have to 1535 01:23:10,960 --> 01:23:13,880 Speaker 1: grind it out to protect a lead and prevent prevent possessions. Yeah, 1536 01:23:13,880 --> 01:23:16,559 Speaker 1: every every every game is different. Every situation that you're in, 1537 01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:19,720 Speaker 1: UM is slightly a bit different. UM. So again, we 1538 01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:21,360 Speaker 1: just got to be prepared and ready to go execute 1539 01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:24,960 Speaker 1: a game plan. You know, Dorsey puts together all all 1540 01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:27,840 Speaker 1: sorts of scenarios in his head. We've practiced a lot 1541 01:23:27,880 --> 01:23:30,439 Speaker 1: of different scenarios. Coach McDermot does a great job of 1542 01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:33,760 Speaker 1: that and putting us in different situations. So again, it's 1543 01:23:33,760 --> 01:23:36,320 Speaker 1: it's it's really not really about the plays. It's about 1544 01:23:36,320 --> 01:23:37,960 Speaker 1: the guys on the field going out there and execute 1545 01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:41,080 Speaker 1: and playing well together, making good decisions, holding none of 1546 01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:45,599 Speaker 1: the football. Um. Yeah, but you know if we get 1547 01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:47,720 Speaker 1: put in that situation, Um, you know, we just gotta 1548 01:23:47,720 --> 01:23:50,599 Speaker 1: go out there nextcute. Well, the other day, I think 1549 01:23:50,600 --> 01:23:52,880 Speaker 1: it was this hundred start. You know, we spent a 1550 01:23:52,880 --> 01:23:54,519 Speaker 1: lot of time with him. You've talked about how your 1551 01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:57,720 Speaker 1: relationship has developed. How have you seen him grow within 1552 01:23:57,800 --> 01:24:01,320 Speaker 1: this offense and then maybe even throw off the field 1553 01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:03,719 Speaker 1: and you're like a leadership role with this season. Yeah, 1554 01:24:03,760 --> 01:24:05,880 Speaker 1: I mean it's been it's been awesome to be within 1555 01:24:05,960 --> 01:24:08,040 Speaker 1: the last few years obviously, and you know he's a 1556 01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:11,880 Speaker 1: captain now, so guys really appreciate when he talks. Um. 1557 01:24:12,200 --> 01:24:14,639 Speaker 1: You know, we respect when he talks. You know, it's 1558 01:24:14,640 --> 01:24:17,280 Speaker 1: a guy that his mindset since he's been here, he's 1559 01:24:17,320 --> 01:24:20,200 Speaker 1: gotten so much better and in terms of you know, 1560 01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:22,800 Speaker 1: being into building and being with the guys, and it's 1561 01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:26,360 Speaker 1: been awesome, awesome to see, um freaking love that. Love 1562 01:24:26,439 --> 01:24:29,200 Speaker 1: the guy. He works his tailoff. You know, nobody's gonna 1563 01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:31,160 Speaker 1: say anything different about that. And then off the field, 1564 01:24:31,160 --> 01:24:32,960 Speaker 1: he's just he's he really is a glue guy in 1565 01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:36,719 Speaker 1: the locker room, keeping everybody's heads on. And um, you know, Lineman, 1566 01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:38,800 Speaker 1: sometimes they see they start seeing right on the field 1567 01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:41,240 Speaker 1: and he's always kind of the angel on the right 1568 01:24:41,320 --> 01:24:43,760 Speaker 1: shoulder telling them to hey, let's let's let's calm down, 1569 01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:46,000 Speaker 1: let's get back in the huddle and focus on the 1570 01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:48,400 Speaker 1: next play. So I appreciate everything that he's done for 1571 01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:50,920 Speaker 1: me in my career, um, you know, and to see 1572 01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:52,519 Speaker 1: him playing as well as he is right now, I 1573 01:24:52,560 --> 01:24:55,320 Speaker 1: know he's playing you know, through some hurt too, which 1574 01:24:55,680 --> 01:25:00,360 Speaker 1: again guys really appreciate, really respect a guy of his caliber. Um, 1575 01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:02,000 Speaker 1: you know how long he's been in this league and 1576 01:25:02,120 --> 01:25:03,640 Speaker 1: still going out there and getting it out for the 1577 01:25:03,680 --> 01:25:08,839 Speaker 1: guys on the field. Do you think the campus city 1578 01:25:08,720 --> 01:25:12,240 Speaker 1: the off season that might have been a little bit tough, 1579 01:25:12,720 --> 01:25:18,200 Speaker 1: potentially potentially, Um, but you know, uh, we've moved on, 1580 01:25:18,280 --> 01:25:21,400 Speaker 1: We're we're ready to again focus on this week. And 1581 01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:23,640 Speaker 1: I know everybody in the media is going to make 1582 01:25:23,680 --> 01:25:26,760 Speaker 1: a big deal of it, but as players, you know, 1583 01:25:26,840 --> 01:25:28,639 Speaker 1: it really is just our next game on our schedule. 1584 01:25:28,640 --> 01:25:30,240 Speaker 1: It's the biggest one we're playing because it is the 1585 01:25:30,240 --> 01:25:32,800 Speaker 1: next one. Nothing that we did last year carries over 1586 01:25:32,920 --> 01:25:35,040 Speaker 1: this year. So um, we just got to go out 1587 01:25:35,080 --> 01:25:37,599 Speaker 1: there again into a hostile environment. We know how their 1588 01:25:37,600 --> 01:25:41,320 Speaker 1: crowd is. Um, it's a it's a fantastic um place 1589 01:25:41,360 --> 01:25:44,120 Speaker 1: to play in. It's it's one of the special places 1590 01:25:44,160 --> 01:25:46,360 Speaker 1: you can play in the league for sure. So um 1591 01:25:46,400 --> 01:25:48,639 Speaker 1: looking forward to the challenge. And again it's a it's 1592 01:25:48,360 --> 01:25:50,320 Speaker 1: a really good team that we're about to go play 1593 01:25:50,840 --> 01:25:54,599 Speaker 1: the playoffs. So this week, you know, obviously he's got 1594 01:25:54,920 --> 01:25:57,080 Speaker 1: he's brought in for these kinds of games. He played 1595 01:25:57,080 --> 01:26:00,720 Speaker 1: the games. What's he been like. Yeah, I mean just 1596 01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:04,800 Speaker 1: again dapping everybody up. Um, you know before practice town guys, 1597 01:26:04,880 --> 01:26:06,080 Speaker 1: let's goy know he had a little bit of a 1598 01:26:06,160 --> 01:26:08,519 Speaker 1: vet day to day, but making sure that guys are 1599 01:26:08,520 --> 01:26:11,760 Speaker 1: hearing his voice and feeling his presence because that goes 1600 01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:14,320 Speaker 1: a long way, you know. Given the type of player 1601 01:26:14,360 --> 01:26:16,760 Speaker 1: that he is, and um, he's a true professional, he'll 1602 01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:20,479 Speaker 1: be ready to go. Come Sunday, I can promise you that. So, Um, 1603 01:26:20,720 --> 01:26:23,040 Speaker 1: he's been he's been a blessing to have, you know, 1604 01:26:23,240 --> 01:26:26,920 Speaker 1: in terms of leadership, guys being able to lean on him. Um, 1605 01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:28,840 Speaker 1: you know, teaching some of these young guys the right 1606 01:26:28,840 --> 01:26:30,880 Speaker 1: way to do it, you know. So it's been. It's 1607 01:26:30,920 --> 01:26:34,759 Speaker 1: been fantastic. All right. That's Josh Allen addressing the media 1608 01:26:34,840 --> 01:26:38,200 Speaker 1: post practice. Still some questions lingering from the media about 1609 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:40,760 Speaker 1: thirteen seconds and the lessons learned from that game in 1610 01:26:40,800 --> 01:26:43,880 Speaker 1: the divisional playoff last year. As this one sits on 1611 01:26:43,920 --> 01:26:46,439 Speaker 1: the cusp of being played on Sunday, Steve and I 1612 01:26:46,520 --> 01:26:48,160 Speaker 1: take a break here, but we wrap it up with 1613 01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:50,880 Speaker 1: some final thoughts on One Bill's Live, presented by Kalid 1614 01:26:50,880 --> 01:27:08,519 Speaker 1: to Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right, so, Steve, 1615 01:27:08,720 --> 01:27:14,439 Speaker 1: as we know, last year's playoff game featured twenty five 1616 01:27:14,560 --> 01:27:20,160 Speaker 1: points in the last two minutes and overtime. Could we 1617 01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:24,840 Speaker 1: have that many points in the last two minutes of 1618 01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:28,559 Speaker 1: regulation again? How much of a how much of an 1619 01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:33,040 Speaker 1: anomaly was that some people called it the perfect offensive 1620 01:27:33,200 --> 01:27:37,280 Speaker 1: playoff game in NFL history. I mean, the offenses, man, 1621 01:27:37,320 --> 01:27:40,200 Speaker 1: it looked like they were playing against eight guys. It 1622 01:27:40,240 --> 01:27:42,960 Speaker 1: took four quarters to get there because the defenses were 1623 01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:46,000 Speaker 1: gassed and these guys were playing at such a high level. 1624 01:27:46,840 --> 01:27:50,000 Speaker 1: I think you know, the Bills. Bills fans will remember 1625 01:27:50,080 --> 01:27:51,840 Speaker 1: the game that the Bills played the week before that 1626 01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:55,519 Speaker 1: is being even better, when they absolutely strummed the New 1627 01:27:55,560 --> 01:27:57,840 Speaker 1: England Patriots, and the Patriots never got them to take 1628 01:27:57,840 --> 01:28:00,320 Speaker 1: a negative play until they knelt down at the last 1629 01:28:00,320 --> 01:28:02,240 Speaker 1: play of the game. Until the Bills no down. They 1630 01:28:02,240 --> 01:28:06,479 Speaker 1: didn't take a negative play. No turnovers, no punts, and 1631 01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:09,240 Speaker 1: they got every single yard they could possibly get every 1632 01:28:09,240 --> 01:28:11,680 Speaker 1: time they got the ball they got to the end zone. Um, 1633 01:28:11,880 --> 01:28:15,559 Speaker 1: that was perfection. No turnovers in the Chiefs game either, though, 1634 01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:19,760 Speaker 1: I know, and I'll say this, there's no I'll just 1635 01:28:19,800 --> 01:28:26,719 Speaker 1: say no games. Those games don't happen very often. That's 1636 01:28:26,760 --> 01:28:28,960 Speaker 1: why it was such an enormous deal. It was just 1637 01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:32,960 Speaker 1: an amazing, amazing game. Right, this game is probably not 1638 01:28:32,960 --> 01:28:35,240 Speaker 1: not going to be repeated, but as I mean, this 1639 01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:37,640 Speaker 1: one's not going to be really good. Yeah, but you 1640 01:28:37,680 --> 01:28:40,280 Speaker 1: are right, those games don't happen. That was the first 1641 01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:43,920 Speaker 1: playoff game in NFL history, with three go ahead touchdowns 1642 01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:46,439 Speaker 1: scored in the final two minutes of regulation. First ever 1643 01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:49,360 Speaker 1: in one hundred and one years of NFL history. It 1644 01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:52,240 Speaker 1: was you can even hear it in Jim Nance's call. 1645 01:28:52,400 --> 01:28:56,280 Speaker 1: He was flabbergasted. He couldn't believe it. And I agree, 1646 01:28:56,320 --> 01:28:57,920 Speaker 1: I mean you we none of us could believe it. 1647 01:28:57,920 --> 01:29:00,800 Speaker 1: I was. I was done when they got the ball 1648 01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:02,760 Speaker 1: back with one oh two to play or one oh 1649 01:29:02,880 --> 01:29:06,479 Speaker 1: six to play, one oh two to play, I'm thinking, 1650 01:29:07,680 --> 01:29:11,160 Speaker 1: and they got to score touchdown to win, right, Yeah? 1651 01:29:11,400 --> 01:29:15,599 Speaker 1: Like man, you know they were moving it though, Yeah, 1652 01:29:15,600 --> 01:29:18,479 Speaker 1: but they ain't no time and then they go in 1653 01:29:18,880 --> 01:29:20,680 Speaker 1: and yeah, and then you know, Gabe Davis goes in 1654 01:29:20,720 --> 01:29:23,160 Speaker 1: with thirteen seconds left. I'm going And then that's when 1655 01:29:23,760 --> 01:29:26,000 Speaker 1: I was like done and I thought, Okay, that's gonna 1656 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:28,479 Speaker 1: be it. We got him and then yeah, and then 1657 01:29:28,520 --> 01:29:31,559 Speaker 1: we'd learned another lesson. Alan and Mahomes are two of 1658 01:29:31,640 --> 01:29:35,400 Speaker 1: seven players in NFL history to play at least sixty 1659 01:29:35,479 --> 01:29:39,679 Speaker 1: games and average two or more offensive touchdowns per game. 1660 01:29:39,880 --> 01:29:42,120 Speaker 1: We got him in this way. Others are Rogers, Luck 1661 01:29:42,320 --> 01:29:44,840 Speaker 1: and Peyton Manning. Here we go, It's gonna be good, 1662 01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:46,639 Speaker 1: and we'll see you tomorrow. It's gonna be fun. Who 1663 01:29:46,680 --> 01:29:48,920 Speaker 1: we will see you tomorrow. We got Field Yates and 1664 01:29:48,960 --> 01:29:51,519 Speaker 1: Pete Sweeney, who covers the Chiefs for Arrowhead Pride. We'll 1665 01:29:51,520 --> 01:29:52,439 Speaker 1: see it one tomorrow
